Vintage Leaf Rhinestone Lock Pendant Necklace
Recession Chic: 10 Cocktail Rings Under $30!
While "gaudy" is never a look to go for, there's something about an oversized cocktail ring that's totally chic without looking tacky. After all, a little bling never hurt anyone... that is, except when said cocktail ring burns a serious hole in your wallet! Luckily, aside from the giant diamonds and precious gems, there are plenty of affordable options to rock the costume jewelry look and make a fashionable statement that doesn't say "I spent a fortune" or "This was as cheap as it looks!" Who says nice jewelry has to cost an arm and a leg? Without further ado, take a look at the slideshow for 10 cocktail rings under $30!
Add A Vintage Vibe To Your Jewelry Collection With Boudoir-Inspired Accessories!
The term boudoir may typically conjure up thoughts of a really ancient antique store full of gaudy Renaissance-style furniture... or faded photographs of retro-scandalous lingerie models. More glamorously, you may think of Marie Antoinette getting pampered in her own personal powder room boudoir (errr, before her fateful demise, that is). Either way, when translated to the realm of jewelry, boudoir-inspired baubles are elegantly vintage-chic in their ornate designs and toned-down pearly shades. Think pearls, lace, antiqued gold -- things you might've found when raiding your great-great-great-great-great grandmother's jewelry box. With a little modern flavor and the subtlest of Baroque influences, these vintage-y picks are anything but tacky (as long as you don't pile them all on at once!) and make the perfect Valentine's Day gift for anyone who appreciates the glamour of time periods past! Check the slideshow for the selection!

My attraction is based somewhat on 'softness'. A good woman should have some softness to her.
To hug a woman who is hard and boney? That somehow doesn't feel right to me! :-)
It all comes down to how different men are wired biologically to like different body types. If i scroll down memorylane, my highschool sweetheart and I had a relationship for 10 years. She'd always been a down to earth gal who looked prettier to me on the days she didn't wear makeup than on the days she did. When we started dating, she was about 5'9 165 pounds ( a bit on the curvy side). Five years into our relationship, she chose to be a surrogate for her older sister who was unable to have kids. I watched her body go through all stages of pregnancy and postdelivery, she was upset that she couldn't lose all the baby weight. Post baby, she weighed about 45 lbs more at 205. And i couldn't help how much more attractive i was to her body ( again, it must be some biological wiring!). We had a open discussion one night while i was giving her a back massage while she had her usual complaint about not being able to lose the extra weight. I whispered in her ear that i was so much more attracted to her body and she should quit worryin about losing the baby weight. To which her response was "REALLY??" I offered some reassurance by turning the backmassage into a belly massage playing with the extra rolls. After that night, she was very comfortable in her skin and the remaining five years of our relationship, she weighed around 250lbs.
I would say i am not that attracted to the SSBBW body type or women in the 350lb+ category ( prefer the 200 to 260 range) But would i go back to scrawny barbies after dating my highschool sweetheart? Nope, it just doesn't do it for me.
However, i think most bbws should stay away from a certain breed of man who "settles" for a bbw because he got rejected by a scrawny barbie. He's just a coward who's dishonest with himself and the woman he dates. He is not truly attracted to her and is looking for something better constantly. Naturally, the woman will feel less beautiful and feel like crap around this guy. He will ruin it for the big and beautiful women and the men who find them truly attractive.
First of all: the PRINT in this blog needs to be LARGER. Well, this size is sufficient . . . but the size that I see on this blog / comment section is kinda tough. OK?
Second, I'm starting to wonder about myself . . why am I attracted to larger, bigger ladies. I don't know yet. But can I be honest enough to say the following:
What we really need is separate categories for merely larger-than-average women versus the "clearly-obese" ones. Hey, I'm not perfect; but there comes a point at which obesity is a real "turn-off". I'm sorry for being so blunt here. Does SSBBW do the 'job' of describing, in comparison to BBW? The ideal woman, in my view, was a body like Anna Nicole Smith: tall and well proportioned. I don't care if they have 20 - 25 lbs. more than they 'should' . . . but 45, 55, 65 lbs. or more is clearly gross.
I don't care if the woman is ten to maybe twenty pounds overweight, but forty-five or more is 'beyond the pale' and not something that I can handle. Sorry, girls: I'm just trying to be reasonable.

The Horse Forum
- Horse Riding
- - What's Your Favorite Discipline, and Why?
What's Your Favorite Discipline, and Why? I've just been a little curious about what else is out there. I've been riding western since I was 3, barrel racing specifically. I was interested in maybe trying something new. Feel free to post some pictures, videos, or info on your sport too. Thanks ya'll! P.S.- By discipline, no, I am not making this into a battle over english and western. This is about sports- jumping, racing, whatever. ;) |
I'm doing english now--- Eventually eventing! I like eventing because it's kind of everything and focuses on the horse and rider's partnership. |
A few years ago I would have said racing, but reining and recently cutting have captured my interest more than any other horse sport. I love all disciplines. All type of riding done truly well is breathtaking, but there's something about the quickness and lightness and finesse and responsiveness of well trained reiners and cutters that is simply awe-inspiring. |
50 Attachment(s) If you do barrels and like a thrill try reined cowhorse or ranch horse! You get to do reining, cutting and my favorite....going down the fence(and roping in the ranch horse)! But I would like to learn to jump too, I think that would be fun! |
Not really a sport but Trail Riding- Because my horse loves it! Personally I could care less about the trees, bugs, and the sun but my Boy loves it! So I get joy out of feeling/watching him! |
Barrel Racing! I LOVE the speed, adrenaline, and teamwork involved! It's NEVER just the horse or the rider, it's always BOTH! That's what makes it so challenging! It's just amazing, IMO. :D I'll shut up now. :lol: |
Barrel racing is one I enjoy. But I just LOOOVE pole bending :). And dressage does it for me as well, just the technique and precision. I'm a bit of a perfectionist :lol:. |
I ride enligsh! ♥ I do jumping, H/J, and hoping to start eventing! I just love the rush and being airborne with your horse. In my opinion - best feeling ever ♥ |
I have a need for speed.. Barrels and Pole Bending.. http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._7284243_n.jpg http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...4_202185_n.jpg I'm very partial to cow horses too.. I've played with team penning, sorting and absolutely love reining and cutting.. |
Barrel racing has got to be my favorite. The thought of a horse and rider headed full speed just to turn a can could be boring to most people. It's when the horse and rider both share the will to dig down and run their hearts out is what gets me. You can make any horse in the world run the barrels. It's the ones that love doing it who are special. Posted via Mobile Device |

I'd be even more impressed if he had said, "I really messed up. I had the opportunity to sleep around and I took it. It's not an addiction. I can't blame anyone else. This is all my fault. I made stupid, selfish decisions because I thought I could get away with it. I don't expect anyone to forgive me, especially my wife, but I promise her this will never happen again. Maybe someday I will be worthy of her trust again."

Unfortunately, I smell media manipulation. A word of caution: He's really only parroting recovery-speak (acting as-if, as they say) - which, in truth, is all anyone can do 45 days in. The counting of days, at this point, is also not a good sign. This, of course, could change in good time. I actually could give a rat's ass about how his golf works out and hope he's more successful in this part of his life. Drop the handlers, Tiger.

I didn't watch it, because it was certain to be pablum. Tiger Woods is not a cutting edge guy, so he's going to say what guys are supposed to say, which is sorry-mumble-mumble-sorry-let-peopole-down-try-to-be-a-better-person-time-wil-tell-still-rehab-rehab-lucky-to-have-a-good-wife-and-a-second-chance-rehab-rehab=sorry.
When the truth is he's sort of sorry and sometimes really sorry but he misses the wild pussy and being the super hero guy and he can't believe he fucked away all that money Erin's cool and hot but marriage is so strange and not much wild pussy it's so tempting but I know my life is fucked if I relapse and they tell me in ten or fifteen years I won't have a hard on for everything and maybe I'm really sorry I don't know I'm confused I just want to play golf and I'm afraid I won't be as good as I was and that would be really terrible I really do love my kids but I miss the wild pussy when will this end?

The Levy County Sheriff's Office has received several reports from citizens saying they are receiving an automated phone call from an unknown party. Complainants are Drummond Bank customers and are being told during the message their card has been stolen.
The call center at Drummond Bank is checking each member's account, and has not reported any fraudulent transactions. Drummond Bank assures LCSO they are not making these calls and will not contact customers in this manner.
April is recognized as National 9-1-1 Education Month, and, with this in mind, the Levy County Department of Public Safety (LCDPS) approached the Chiefland Elementary School to present 9-1-1 information to children. LCDPS invited Chiefland Fire Rescue to join the team to deliver the information to students in grades 3 through 5. The two Departments were at the school for three hours April 2, teaching the children when to call 911 and what information they would be asked if they ever had to make that call.
The Chiefland Police Department will be holding free women's physical defense classes beginning in May.
The Levy County Sheriff's Office reports the following arrests:
Levy County Sheriff's investigators checking out a child abuse complaint found a convicted sex offender who was not registered in Levy County was living in Chiefland with the 6-year-old child's mother and arrested the couple.
Reggie Coneil Kearney, 37, is charged with one count of felony child abuse and failure to register an address in Levy as required, He is jailed on a $150,000 bond. Kearney was registered at a Gainesville address.
The Levy County Sheriff's Office in partnership with the Levy County Prevention Coalition will be participating in the Federal Drug Enforcement Agency's National Prescription Drug Take Back Initiative.
The Levy County Sheriff's Office is ramping up planning for the 2014 Williston Crab Festival on April 26, working with a committee of community leaders to ensure a fun, peaceful celebration.
Ten sex offenders on probation — including two living in a group home in East Williston — have been arrested on charges of violating their probation by having email accounts, Internet access, child pornography, computers and mobile phones. All are prohibited by the terms of their release into the communities in Levy County.
About 1,000 visitors showed up to the Third Annual Public Safety Expo in Chiefland Saturday. The event was hosted by The Levy County Department of Public Safety.
Visitors had the opportunity to get an up-close look at helicopters, fire trucks, ambulances and other equipment used by emergency responders. Space Walk of Nature Coast donated a bounce house to the event for the children to enjoy. Children also enjoyed a fire hose competition. There were fire department extrications, EMS and K9 demonstrations by the local public safety agencies.

Ramirez activated, but not in Dodgers' starting lineup
Hanley Ramirez even beat his bobblehead to Dodger Stadium.
Well ahead of the original prognosis after he tore a ligament in his right thumb March 19, Ramirez was activated from the disabled list before Monday night's game.
Ramirez had surgery to repair the ligament March 22 and was expected to miss six to eight weeks. He returns just over five weeks after the surgery having played six innings each in two rehab games for Class-A Rancho Cucamonga over the weekend.
Ramirez has been playing with a small splint taped to his injured thumb. He will continue to wear the splint for some time.
Ramirez is not in the starting lineup but will be available off the bench. He is likely to make his first start of the season Tuesday night (when the promotional giveaway is a bobblehead in his likeness).
Left-hander Clayton Kershaw was placed on the bereavement list to clear a roster spot for Ramirez. Kershaw left the team after his dominant performance in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. His absence is related to an unspecified personal matter.
Players on the bereavement list must stay inactive for a minimum of three days and a maximum of seven. Dodgers manager Don Mattingly indicated before Monday's game toay that he expects Kershaw to rejoin the team in time to make his next scheduled start, Friday in San Francisco.

TV Studio Open House for Students, Faculty and Staff
Point Loma Nazarene University
Contact: Kalyn McMackin (760) 685-3312
Point TV: Channel 23
Advisor: Alan Hueth (619) 849-2358
Date: March 26, 2014
Written by: Kalyn McMackin
TV Studio Open House for Students, Faculty and Staff
Point TV will soon open its studio doors to students, faculty, staff, and administrators this coming Thursday, April 3rd, from 3-6 p.m. Dr. Alan Hueth, professor of communication, thought that it was "high time" for this to happen.
"We're an unknown entity on this campus…We have been for quite a while and I thought that now that we have the new HD studio, and students have been doing really great work and doing stuff for on campus and off-campus entities—it's time."
Point TV's studio is located in the back of Ryan Library, a place not many students know exists. However, it is Hueth's hope that with an open house, more students and faculty will become interested in the opportunities that the studio has to offer.
"The goal is to heighten the awareness of the studio and how we're impacting not only our broadcast journalism and media communications programs, but how we're getting into professional production and/or support for both on and off-campus businesses" said Hueth.
Hueth added "It's also to help faculty administrators see that we have a facility that can be used for enhancing PLNU's present hybrid and distance learning initiatives. We can contribute and do high quality work because of the equipment and the skilled students we have."
Some PLNU faculty and students have already begun shooting videos for local businesses and non-profits--reeling in more than $20,000 over the last eight years.
"Although, one of the main reasons for the event is for increased student interest, we are also hoping to inform professors and other guests about Point TV productions that we do for off-campus entities," said Erich Rau, Point TV station manager. "One particular goal is to get PLNU professors excited about producing videos for 'distance learning.'"
The open house will allow all visitors a rare first-hand experience into the world of film and television production. All attendees will have the chance to see what their professor-colleagues are doing with video for their distance learning courses and other purposes.
"Students, faculty, and other guests can expect to see the best of Point TV productions running on monitors throughout the studio," said Rau. "We will also be giving visitors a tour, and will be operating the green screen so that guests can see themselves on camera with the weather forecasts behind them."
The event will be held from 3-6pm, and the TV studio is located in the back hallway of Ryan Library on the first floor.
For more information, please contact Erich Rau at email@example.com or Alan Hueth at email@example.com

MR-1000 Professional Mobile Recorder
The MR-1000 is the perfect tool for the professional who wants to record and archive their final mixes in the studio, while its compact size and portability make it ideal for location recording, podcasting, live music performances – even for rehearsals and song-writing sessions.
After recording and editing all your tracks in the DAW/hardware system of your choice, you can mix directly, or via an analog summing mixer, to the MR-1000. This gives you the superb fidelity of high-rate 1-bit technology, which preserves all the transients, nuances, and "air" from the original recording.
Powerful new software bundled with the MR-1000 enables the conversion of your 1-bit recordings and mixes into all of today's audio formats without degradation. Best of all, by archiving your data/mix in this new double-speed 1-bit format you're ready for the future, as playback systems and standards change.
Real world features
The MR-1000 supports multiple recording formats including DSDIFF, DSF, and WSD 1-bit formats*, as well as multi-bit PCM format (BWF) with resolutions up to 24-bit/192 kHz.
It features a 40 Gbyte internal hard drive, offering up to six hours of recording at the highest audio quality (1-bit 5.6448 MHz stereo), or approximately sixty hours at CD quality (16-bit 44.1 kHz).
The table-top MR-1000 includes combination XLR/ 1/4" input connectors with top quality microphone preamps, phantom power and built-in limiting. Both XLR and RCA outputs are provided for maximum flexibility.
Designed for high audio quality
In order to deliver an unprecedented level of audio quality, careful attention was paid not only to the digital signal domain but also to the hardware design. The input/output circuitry of the MR-1000 features ultra-high quality mic preamps. Power is supplied independently to the MR-1000's digital circuitry and analog circuitry, thus holding interference due to electrical current to an extremely low level. Every component of the MR-1000 has been carefully selected to maximize performance. The respected Cirrus Logic CS4398 is used as the DAC (Digital/Analog Converter), and the Burr-Brown PCM4202 from Texas Instruments is used as the ADC (Analog/Digital Converter). By paying close attention to every component, the design has minimized any possible degradation of the audio signal.
Quality and portability
The MR-1000 allows two-way operation; it can be powered by the included AC adaptor or by eight AA batteries, delivering 1-bit audio in a portable package that's equally at home in the studio or in the field. It comes with a specially-made carrying case that lets you record without removing the MR-1000 from the case, making it a great choice for field recording. The large backlit LCD display guarantees excellent visibility, ensuring smooth workflow. The Almite-coated aluminum body provides strong impact resistance and stable operation in any situation.
1-bit technology equals pristine fidelity
1-bit recording is the latest advancement in audio, and has been adopted for use in the critically acclaimed SACD recording format. It offers a frequency response of DC to 100 kHz and dynamic range of 120 dB. This uncompromising fidelity, low noise floor, extended dynamic range, lifelike imaging and analog quality depth has been praised by top experts. But there are other important advantages to the format that are of benefit to all recording professionals, regardless of their tracking platform.
The Technology behind the new MR-1 and MR-1000 Mobile Recorders:
- 1-bit technology equals pristine fidelity - 1-bit recording is the latest advancement in audio, and has been adopted for use in the critically acclaimed SACD recording format. It offers a frequency response of DC to 100 kHz and dynamic range of 120 dB. This uncompromising fidelity, low noise floor, extended dynamic range, lifelike imaging and analog quality depth has been praised by top experts. But there are other important advantages to the format that are of benefit to all recording professionals, regardless of their tracking platform.
- Future proof flexibility - Today's state-of-the-art 24-bit converters use high-speed 1-bit conversion to capture audio, using real-time decimation and other processes to present the data in the desired bit depth/sample rate format. The beauty of the MR's bitstream format is that it uses the original 1-bit data, without the need for the other processes. What comes in comes out, with no manipulation needed.
As files are converted and reconverted between various bit depths and sampling rates, there are possibly degrading effects, depending on the sample rate conversion algorithms. The critical issue is that files mixed and mastered in today's state of the art resolution may be insufficient for tomorrow's formats. Archiving your final mixes and masters in a 1-bit system allows you to bypass these issues, and preserve your music with both the highest fidelity and in a more "universal" format. That data then can more easily be converted at a later date to the bit depth/sample rate format of your choice without compromising the integrity or fidelity of the data. You can even convert to newer formats that will be adopted in the future, be they multi-bit or a further migration to the 1-bit format.

This is an interesting video by Matthew Rothschild, the editor of The Progressive magazine, which is, according to its own account, one of the leading voices for peace and social justice in the US. The magazine has apparently been in existence since 1909.
Rothschild tells us bluntly that the Occupy Wall Street movement is the beginning of a new Progressive era. We think we believe him. In fact, in investigating the video, we discovered that the Progressive Movement and Occupy Wall Street seem to have the same goals! Here is a brief description, according to the online Cultural Dictionary:
Progressive movement … A movement for reform that occurred roughly between 1900 and 1920. Progressives typically held that irresponsible actions by the rich were corrupting both public and private life. They called for measures such as trust busting, the regulation of railroads, provisions for the people to vote on laws themselves through referendum, the election of the Senate by the people rather than by state legislatures, and a graduated income tax (one in which higher tax rates are applied to higher incomes). The Progressives were able to get much of their program passed into law. Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson were associated with the movement.
This is what Occupy Wall Street is calling for today. Almost word-for-word. The OWS movement, which claims it has no goals, has them "at the top," anyway – as Rothschild understands. The two movements look like this:
Progressive Movement …………………Occupy Wall Street
Trust Busting…………………………………….Breaking Up Big Banks and Big Corporations
Wall Street regulation ………,……………….Re-regulating Wall Street
Voting through referendum ………………..Direct Democracy
Graduated Income Tax ………………………Making the Rich Pay their "Fair Share"
Coincidence? Or what we have come to call "directed history?" (History stage-managed by the Anglosphere elites.)
In fact, as we have pointed out many times, we've come to believe in it reluctantly … the idea that an Anglosphere power elite is first manipulating and then writing history. It is doing so in order to create world government. The conspiracy will achieve world government by creating chaos and then order.
The historical patterns seem to have a good deal of parallelism, especially in the US (still the engine of the world). So … are we being manipulated, folks? Take a look at this …
Early 20th Century ………………………………Early 21st Century
Central Bank Inflation (Roaring 20s)…………….Central Bank Inflation (Housing Bubble)
Depression & Progressive Movement……………Depression & Youth Movements Around the World
Occupy Washington DC (WW 1 Veterans)……….Occupy Wall Street by Disaffected Youth
Reichstag Fire …………………………………………..9/11
Second World War……………………………………..War on Terror Gradually Escalates to "World War"
FDR-Like Figure to Provide Leadership………….Obama, who Models Himself on FDR
The Depression allowed the Anglosphere elites to do several things. First, people were so cowed and wiped out by the Depression (in England, America and Germany) that they were easily manipulated – and thus a world war was easy to create.
At the end of the Second World War, the elites built the beginning of what we call the New World Order: the IMF, the World Bank, the United Nations, etc. People were so "militarized" by the big war that they didn't object.
Now at the beginning of the 21st century, the trap is closing. The 20th century provided the foundation for world government (run by the elites, of course). The 21st century may see the rest built. If the Anglosphere has its way, it would seem there will be no need to do much more in the 22nd century. (Or maybe then we'll see the implementation of population reduction.)
Yes … we can see the pieces snapping together like a puzzle. But will it work? It did in the 20th century. But today, ah … there is what we call the Internet Reformation. This is something the elites didn't count on.
Is it making a difference? You're reading this article, aren't you?

Tire sensor
So I've had that warning low pressure sensor going off and I checked all tires even spare is good.. so does the 2005 wk have a tire pressure monitor on the info screen and could that be why I'm not seeing it?
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2 |
Re: Tire sensor
there is no screen in the WK that shows you the tire pressures, if all your tires are good then you may have a bad sensor
Re: Tire sensor
"there is no screen in the WK that shows you the tire pressures"
Are you sure about that? From the first screen that shows the outside temperature, hit the STEP button one time. |
Re: Tire sensor
ive been all thru the screens on mine, no tire presure screen and mine is an 08
Re: Tire sensor
There is a screen on the EVIC in the Limited's and up that gives the pressure readings for the tires. Not quite sure on Limited with 6 cyls. I know on most Laredos there is only the idiot light and no EVIC reading. And as most stated, you may have a bad sensor. I had a bad one on of my tires and filled it with air but the warning lights stayed on until I got the sensor fixed.
Well when I switch through the evic settings I notice theres one black screen so I thought maybe that's the issue.. cuz why is that screen blank?
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2 |
Re: Tire sensor
i had to replace one, it was 37.99 at an advance autoparts store
Re: Tire sensor
The premium system also monitors the spare, but will only turn on the light if it is low (spare pressure is not displayed on the EVIC). It does take a few (up to 15) minutes of driving to reset the light once tire pressures have been corrected. If all your pressures are good and the light is still on, you'll need to scan the system with a code reader that can read TPM codes to know why it is going off. |

Music to Your EarsStar Wars fans will score this fall with an interstellar night of music from all six of the beloved films (though I suppose the term "beloved" does not apply to all six). The New Mexico Symphony Orchestra and Symphony Chorus will perform Symphonic Star Wars on September 23 and 24. So why am I bringing this up now? Because tickets went on sale last week and these things tend to sell out quickly. The concerts will include laser light shows, costume contests and other "space opera touches." I don't know about you, but I'm dying to find out what the other space opera touches are. Tickets are $15 to $45 and can be procured by calling 881-8999. Or I suppose you could just use the force. Music MagnifiedFalconhawkMonday, July 18; Atomic Cantina (21 and over): If you've been watching MTV Canada lately, you might have caught a video by Calgary's Falconhawk (a video on MTV? Canada is sounding more and more like a true paradise). But since you probably haven't heard of this band, much less caught them on Canadian television, let's just put it this way: If this were the mid '90s, Falconhawk would probably be on Matador. What they've really done is moved past the '80s, through the '90s and towards the present, picking things up along the way to create a delicious cornucopia of music for our generation. Their subtle keyboards combined with piano, drums and a vocalist who sounds like a more relaxed Kristin Hersh (à la Throwing Muses) make for an uncomplicated, pleasantly indie feel. Sonic ReducerzZz Sound of zZz (Howler)Norwegian hipsters zZz probably think they're a lot cooler than anyone that would ever buy their album. Even so, the band's latest LP is chalk full of first-rate fashionable dance tracks that would serve one well on a late night road trip. Just try falling asleep at the wheel with lead singer Bjorn Ottenheim vociferously barking at you. zZz combines soulful omnipresent organ and static drums with vocals reminiscent of a coked up Jim Morrison. It's probably not as good as Ottenheim and organist Dean Schinkel think it is, but it's still worth a listen. SpotlightDanny Winn and the EarthlingsIf the fizz of Mountain Dew could be translated into music, it would sound exactly like Danny Winn and the Earthlings: exhilarating, high-energy and really, really bubbly. Leave it to those catchy, filled beats or maybe even the infectious bass lines, and before you know it there'll be a pit of fans in front of the stage skanking like there's no tomorrow. | Today's EventsChelsea Grin • metalcore • Ice Nine Kills • Gideon • melodic hardcore • Enterprise Earth at LaunchpadErmine & Ebony • Siamese • Chicharra • glam, metal at Low SpiritsTodd Tijerina • blues, roots rock at Filling Philly'sMore Recommended Events ›› | |||||

Basic Sponge Cake
Recipe by swirlycinnacakes
Nice to know the basics. From the food blog bakingsheet.
Top Review by *Pixie*
Lovely and golden on the outside, perfect texture on the inside! I was looking for a nice simple single layer to make a lighter Boston Cream pie, and this was exactly what I was looking for. I used extra vanilla instead of the lemon. To make the light Boston Cream pie, I split the cake into two layers and filled it with diet Jello pudding to which I added extra vanilla. I topped it with a thin layer of semi-sweet chocolate melted with a bit of milk. Delicious!
See Discussion:
1 ReviewIngredients Nutrition
- 4 eggs, separated and at room temperature
- 1⁄2 cup sugar, plus
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1⁄2 teaspoon lemon extract or 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1⁄2 cup cake flour, sifted
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- Preheat oven to 325.
- Grease only the bottom of a 9-inch round cake pan and cover with a circle of parchment paper. Do not grease the sides of the pan.
- In a large bowl, beat egg yolks until light, gradually adding in the sugar. Add in vanilla and lemon and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy, about 1 minute at high speed, then beat in the salt and cream of tartar. Continue beating until the eggs reach soft peaks. Fold egg whites, working in 3 or 4 batches, into the yolk mixture.
- Sift the flour over the egg mixture, again working in 3 or 4 batches, and gently fold it inches When the batter is uniform, pour into prepared cake pan and bake unil a tester comes out dry and the top of the cake springs back when gently pressed, about 35-45 minutes.
- Allow cake to cool in the pan before cutting around the sides with a sharp knife and turning it out.
- Slice the cake into 2 or 3 layers (or squares) and fill as desired.

Jonathan Dos Santos joins Real Sociedad on a season-long loan
Barcelona defensive midfielder, Jonathan Dos Santos will leave the club and join Champions League bound Real Sociedad on a season-long loan with an option to buy.
The Mexican International has been adamant in his desire to remain at the club and fight for a chance on the team, but it has become clear that his future lies elsewhere and has agreed to join the Basque side as a replacement to now Real Madrid defensive midfielder, Asier Illarramendi.
The deal has been agreed upon with the official announcement expected this afternoon by Real Sociedad president, Joakin Aperribay at the presentation of Haris Seferovic Wednesday afternoon.
Dos Santos will be reunited with friend and fellow Mexican international, Carlos Vela, who joined the club through a similar buyback option from Arsenal last summer, after a successful loan spell during the 2011-12 season.
Dos Santos becomes the sixth La Masia product to leave the club this summer, joining Marc Muniesa (Stoke City), Bojan (Ajax), Rafinha and Andreu Fontas (Celta Vigo) and Thiago Alcantara (Bayern Munich).

addresses, crash machines and run malicious code with elevated user privileges, the vendor warned in an advisory Monday. A fix is available.
Vulnerability researcher Boon Seng Lim notified Symantec of the flaw, which resides in the SAVRT.SYS component of the program. An attacker could use the output buffer of the DeviceIOControl() function to overwrite kernel addresses because the address space of the output buffer was not properly validated, Symantec said, adding, "A successful exploit could potentially allow a local attacker to execute code of their choice with elevated privileges, or to crash the system."
Symantec said the flaw could be exploited under the following scenarios:
- An attacker acquires local interactive access to a computer running the affected application.
- The attacker creates an exploit that interacts with SAVRT.SYS in a manner that triggers this issue. The attacker executes the exploit application.
- The application improperly validates the data. As a result, memory is overwritten with attacker-supplied data.
The flaw affects Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition 8.1, 9.0.3 and earlier versions; and Symantec Client Security 1.1, 2.0.3 and earlier.
The Cupertino, Calif.-based antivirus giant said its engineers verified the problem and released updates to address the affected products.
"Symantec is not aware of any customers impacted by this issue, or of any attempts to exploit the issue," the company added.
As a part of normal best practices, Symantec recommends that users keep all application software and operating systems up-to-date with the latest vendor supplied patches.

On this day in 1854 the British Light Brigade, led by Lord Cardigan, made their famous charge into a Russian artillery battery during the Battle of Balaclava. Lord Raglan, the overall commander, intended for the unit to harrass a retreating artillery unit, but his vague orders were misinterpreted, and the cavalry attacked the wrong unit. Despite knowing the futility of a cavalry charge into a fortified artillery position, the soldiers gallantly rode forward. Losses for the Light Brigade were staggering, and they immediately retreated without any measurable gain.
But their valor will forever be remembered, for over 150 years later, who among us has not heard of the "Charge of the Light Brigade"?

In my conversations with people around Brunswick County these days, I'm hearing more and more references to "the Season."
Now I'm not from here, but I know a little bit about what that means because folks in the newspaper office have been hinting about the hectic nature of the tourist season since I got here.

Research In Motion Ltd. launched its new BlackBerry smartphone in Canada, with telecom carriers reporting strong sales of the new device that is crucial to the company's comeback attempt.
The Waterloo, Ont.-based company's shares gained nearly 7 per cent on Tuesday, rising for the second day in a row as Canadian carriers such as BCE Inc. reported record pre-orders and pre-registrations of the new BlackBerry Z10 phone – a touchscreen device with a slightly bigger screen than Apple Inc.'s iPhone.
In the U.K., where the BlackBerry brand remains strong, customers lined up to buy the device and analysts reported that some wireless retailers were selling out of the new model.
"Our initial checks indicate that sales in the U.K. are off to a strong start," said Jeffries & Co. analyst Peter Misek, noting some stores sold out of the device.
Canada's Rogers Communications Inc., meanwhile, said "thousands" had signed up early to get hold of the new BlackBerry.
"People are really excited to see something fresh and new," said Andrew MacLeod, RIM's managing director for Canada.
One customer switching back to BlackBerry was Akilan Thurarirasa, who purchased his own BlackBerry Z10 at the Toronto Eaton Centre on Tuesday while talking on his Galaxy Note 2, a Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. device. "I've used BlackBerrys, an iPhone and Samsung," said Mr. Thurarirasa, 28. "Now I'm going to BlackBerry."
Winning back the many millions who have long left BlackBerry for competing smartphones, though, remains a major challenge for RIM. In Toronto the optimism around the BlackBerry didn't manifest in any queues.
Across from the Yonge-Dundas Square Best Buy store with the new BlackBerry about to go on sale, Ryerson University student Grace Lo, 18, was sitting with a colleague, two iPhones resting on their table alongside a coffee. Both her and Bryan Chiu, 19, are former BlackBerry users, both having since switched to iPhones.
"There's more apps, there's more things to do," Ms. Lo said. "My dad originally wanted to try the new BlackBerry 10, but he heard it was touchscreen and had no keyboard, so he was kind of disappointed."
Of course, RIM has never really had lineups.The BlackBerry sells in hundreds of locations, from Rogers, Bell and Telus stores and kiosks to Best Buy and Future Shop, and it was never really expected to sell out – like previous iterations of Apple Inc.'s popular iPhone.
But the BlackBerry Z10, which went on sale on Tuesday across Canada, is not just a phone: It is the beginning of a new smartphone platform that RIM hopes will stem the company's dwindling sales and turn around a business that saw its darkest days in 2012.
On Tuesday, RIM chief executive officer Thorsten Heins took took the airwaves, appearing widely on Toronto's TV and radio stations, and giving a lunchtime address to the Empire Club at the Royal York hotel that garnered a standing ovation.
Momentum has been running high for the company, as it came off a successful unveiling in New York last week, a Super Bowl ad that ran over the weekend and an ego boost from carrier partners in Canada who reported strong customer interest for the new BlackBerry – including from people currently using iPhones or devices running Google Inc.'s Android software.
"There's some platforms out there now that are ubiquitous, there's a lot of prevalence with them," Mr. MacLeod said. "There's just a hunger and a desire for people to see what's new and innovative and different. ... That's why we've seen a lot of the pre-sales and pre-reg has been from other platforms, they haven't just been from BlackBerry."
But even as RIM rolls out the Z10 across the globe, and the BlackBerry Q10 – which has a physical keyboard – will follow, it is clearly just a beginning for RIM.
Mr. MacLeod said "there's a robust roadmap" of devices to come over the next year: They will be aimed at people who want devices in different shapes and sizes, and at the big emerging markets, such as Nigeria and Indonesia, where BlackBerry is still a strong brand.
"Whether you want a smaller screen, a bigger screen – whether you want a hybrid between a smartphone or a tablet – I think what's important is we now have a platform that can support all of those different preferences," he said. "We will listen to the market and given them what they desire and want."

Gilles Gratton
Gilles Gratton (born July 28, 1952 in LaSalle, Quebec) is a retired ice hockey goaltender.
Gratton (nicknamed "Gratoony The Loony" for his bizarre actions both on and off the ice)[1] began his WHA career in 1972 with the Ottawa Nationals. Gilles would also spend time with the Toronto Toros. His brother, Norm Gratton, was a professional National Hockey League (NHL) player as well. In the NHL, Gratton would play with the St. Louis Blues and New York Rangers. He is perhaps best known for his goalie mask, which was an adaptation of his astrological sign, Leo. However, Gratton states that he got the idea from a picture in a National Geographic magazine that he was reading on a plane flight. According to Gratton, "It's not a lion mask at all. It's a tiger."[2] Some people believe that Gratton would growl at opposing players on the ice and once hissed like a cat during a fight.[3] Gratton played with the Nationals for one season in 1972 before moving to the Toros in 1973, until finally breaking into the NHL in 1975, ending his career with the Rangers in 1977.
Throughout his career, Gratton has been known for his eccentric personality and outspoken character, often drawing the attention away from his talent. While playing in the WHA, he once hurled insults against the opposing team's fans in San Diego ahead of a playoff game.[4] Legend has it that Gratton once told his teammates he was reincarnated and had once been a soldier in the Spanish Inquisition.[5] He may also have believed that he was an executioner who had stoned people to death and was fated to be a goalie as punishment.[6] In a game with the Toronto Toros of the WHA, he refused to play because the moon was in the wrong part of the sky, thereby not lined up with Jupiter. He later mentioned he did so to protest against the firing of coach Billy Harris. [7][8]
On THN.com, he was voted to have the 6th scariest goalie mask.[3]
In October 2015, ECW Press announced [9] that it would be publishing Gratton's autobiography, Grattoony the Loony, written with author Greg Oliver.

If you thought that was an inconvenience for people using Steam's servers, spare a thought (or a laugh) for those trying to illegally download the game. TorrentFreak has taken a look at the comments sections of some piracy links and come up with a few interesting observations.

Advertisement Advertisement "43GB? holy fuck," one wrote, while another despairs "I have to uninstall like 10 games to play this shit!!"My heart bleeds.Perhaps more constructively, there were also anecdotal reports of pirates giving up the long wait, and deciding to just buy the game (later, when it was on sale, of course).Not that this was a widespread deterrent; for all the hardships, TF's study saw that around 100,000 people stuck it out and illegally downloaded the game anyway.

Mariners men make it to nationals
The VIU Mariners have made sure that their surprising season will last a little longer.
Vancouver Island University's men's volleyball team qualified to compete at nationals thanks to a silver-medal finish at the Pacific Western Athletic Association championships in Cranbrook this past weekend. VIU's men earned the trip to Welland, Ont., on the strength of a semifinal victory Friday over the Camosun Chargers, 22-25, 29-27, 25-23, 25-18.
"When you've got that win-or-go-home game and win it, it was a neat feeling," said Abe Avender, VIU coach. "It was neat to see how we all came together at the end."
The M's dropped the first set, which the coach said was partly nerves and partly the fact that Camosun had won a quarterfinal match the day before and were already warmed up.
"We found our way," Avender said. "We passed really well and served quite solid. If we can serve and pass we can do a lot because we can run such a great offence that way. Once we got our bearings that way it was pretty smooth."
After that huge win, Saturday felt like a long day as the M's awaited their night-time gold-medal match. There they ran into a "hotter than hot" Capilano Blues team, Avender said, and the Mariners lost 26-24, 25-23, 12-25, 25-20.
"They were definitely dedicated and wanted to win that gold medal, but I think that they knew that they were through [to nationals]…" he said. "It would have been so nice to hang a banner in our gym but we still have an opportunity to hang a really neat banner up."
Lee Hamilton and Zach Grigg were selected as tournament all-stars. For the graduating fifth-year Hamilton and all his teammates, next month's trip to the Canadian Colleges' Athletic Association championships will be their first time competing at nationals.
"For the work that they put in, they really did earn it," Avender said.
COURT SHORTS … The CCAA championships begin March 7 … VIU's women's volleyball team won bronze medals at provincials, sweeping the Blues 25-15, 25-19, 25-17 in Saturday's third-place match. The M's women were upset in their semifinal Friday by the Columbia Bible College Bearcats by scores of 16-25, 25-23, 19-25, 25-22, 15-7 … Dani Smith was chosen as a tournament all-star.

Another option to consider for the treatment of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is the Transcendental Meditation (TM) program (also known as Strategic Stress Management). Research indicates that it is a scientifically-validated, cost-effective solution which could be quickly and easily implemented. This technique is a portable strategy. After learning the technique, all you need is a comfortable place to sit and close the eyes. No additional resources are needed. The self-reliance of this approach has appeal for a "warrior mind-set." Please read my Op-Ed referenced below:+Meditation Could Help: Reducing Stress-Related Problems at Military and VA Facilities. Military.com, Available at:http://www.military.com/opinion/0,15202,140986,00.html +Colonel Brian M. Rees, M.D. recently completed his masters degree research paper at the US Army War College on the topic of Strategic Stress Management (SSM). His presentation at the Association of Military Surgeons of the United States (AMSUS) convention included this topic. His entire paper is available online at:http://www.invinciblemilitary.org/rees/Col_Rees_Masters_Paper.htm +Dr. Rees is quoted in Military Officer about a side benefit for military personnel when using SSM. The article describes alternative treatment approaches to combat Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Military Officer magazine is the flagship publication of Military Officers Association of America (MOAA). The article is available online at:http://www.moaa.org/pubs_mom_070601_ptsd.htm +An important point to consider is that research shows that all meditation and relaxation techniques do not necessarily have the same results. See: "Are All Meditations the Same? Comparing the Neural Patterns of Mindfulness Meditation, Tibetan Buddhism Kargyu tradition and the Transcendental Meditation Technique." Available at:http://fredtravis.com/talk.html +Unlike many other meditation and relaxation techniques the Transcendental Meditation program is easy to learn and fun to practice, and extensive research shows that it is more effective and efficient than other relaxation techniques. Please see "Comparison of Techniques Issue: Are all forms of meditation and relaxation the same?" Available at:http://www.truthabouttm.org/truth/Research/ComparisonofTechniques/index.cfm+A new study of 60 male subjects in their 40's and 50's found that ultraweak photon emissions were significantly lower at all 12 anatomical locations studied in subjects practicing the Transcendental Meditation technique (TM) and Other Meditation Techniques (OMT= Tao, Zen, Christian, and Hindu Yoga meditations) than in non-meditating controls.

A coarse view of humanity
The folks at my barbershop are more than a little upset by a local radio talk show host whom they feel insulted Derek Williams, the 22-year-old brother with a criminal history who was arrested shortly after an alleged robbery and died in the custody of the arresting officers last year.
I located the commentary and heard a provocative communication that was either a rant for ratings or an expression of heartfelt convictions; I choose to believe the latter. I wonder what the host had in mind in describing various individuals as "goons," "elephants," "dirty rotten thug," "piece of garbage" and "pigs," as that certainly doesn't lead to a civil conversation.
It is, however, definitely healthy for the speaker to get the fury out of his system rather than having it fester inside, and the public exposure offers the opportunity and responsibility for others to consider if those conclusions fit into their personal belief system.
In any event, what seemed to most agitate the radio personality was his perception that extravagant attention has been paid to Williams and his "miserable life" and death and insufficient public outrage over the innocent lives lost due to co-sleeping. That is puzzling since co-sleeping has locally for several years been a topic of intense debate with associated public service campaigns condemning it. But it is what it is.
My barbershop brethren feel that this host's "colorful" presentation offends public sensibility, but it's difficult to defend that point of view. Our starchy social conventions back in the day have given way to a coarsened culture in which gross movies are a very profitable, frivolous genre and other cinema is distinguished by full-frontal female nudity in the guise of "art." There are few shelters to offer protection from the "F-bombs," or worse, which assault from every media portal. In an environment where literally anything goes, the commentator's language hardly sets him apart in terms of vulgarity.
What I did find offensive was his assertion that citizen concern was "not because anybody cares about the miserable life of a no-account Derek Williams; it is just a way to take shot at cops." That dismissive assessment of a human's life is reprehensible. It demonstrates a supercilious indifference to a concept of right to life sufficiently expansive to value individuals of any age and which deems the decision of whose life is beyond redemption to be way, way above any mortal's pay grade.
In regard to calls for his removal, this radio host hasn't reached a status meriting community alarm. His is a strident voice filling a niche, and when he eventually has blundered into significantly shaming his position, his radio station employers will gauge the extent of audience and advertiser disapproval and then decide for themselves if it is to their profit to rein him in or find a more palatable replacement. That is appropriately their call.
In the meantime, the best response to this individual and others of his clique is . . . click.

In this blog, How to Be a Comedian – Open Mic Tip 5: Avoid All Comics' Clichés, I'll take it even further and suggest that you resist using any comics' clichés in your show.
How to Be a Comedian – Open Mic Tip 5: Avoid All Comics' Clichés
Comics' clichés are all those mindless phrases comics use because they heard other comics use them. These clichés are the fast track to becoming a hack. Identify them and eliminate them completely from your show.
These clichés have a function, mostly as greetings and segues. Instead of using an old hacky cliché, think up some original way of greeting an audience and transitioning from one subject to another.
Here are some of the most abused comics' clichés:
Greeting: "How you all doing tonight?" and "Wus up everybody?"
Segue: "By a show of hands, how many people here are married or fill in any other subject?"
Must the audience be forced to respond to the same greeting from twenty comics? Must the audience respond to a question that's only asked because the comic wants to bring up the subject of the next bit? For a change, look at it from the audience's point of view. They want to laugh and have a good time, not answer a bunch of inane questions from unoriginal performers.
Advice: I discussed in a previous article How to Be a Comedian – Open Mic Tip 4: Greet the Audience, how to greet the audience in an honest way. So here, I'll focus on the segue or transition clichés. Instead of asking a question of your audience as a way of brings up the subject of a routine…state your premise.
In a previous blog, How to Write Jokes – Joke Premise Part 1, I defined the definition of the joke premise as a negative opinion about a subject. Instead of asking the audience a question when you don't care about the answer, state your premise: "My marriage confuses me." Now you can go right into the jokes about how your marriage confuses you. This way, there's no wasted time deflecting an answer from a useless question.
In my next blog, How to Be a Comedian – Tip 6: Proper Microphone Technique, I'll show the importance of holding a mic so it disappears for you and the audience.
• I'm running an Open Mic four nights a week at Marty's Comedy Club for all my current students. Beginner students get five – 2 minute slots. Advanced students get eighteen – 5 minute slots. It's so much fun to watch them develop the comfort on stage to let go and just play.
