Tales of Maj'Eyal 4 Begins a New Chapter in the Roguelike Genre
Generic Company Place Holder Tales of Maj'Eyal 4
PCWorld Rating
Tales of Maj'Eyal 4 is a roguelike game, which means a top-down experience where you control a single character who traverses a semi-random world in pursuit of power, glory, and finding new and interesting ways to die. TOME 4 does quite a few things differently, though, and they may make it appeal to some who like old-school CRPGs but dislike some aspects of roguelike games.
First, TOME 4 is graphical by default: You're an icon, not an @. To be very clear, the icons are static, 2-dimensional images with fairly basic art; you can tell an ant from a ghoul, and large creatures take up multiple squares, but that's about it. Don't expect Skyrim--or even Daggerfall--quality here. However, that's not the point of a roguelike. The graphics are functional, they let you know what's about to kill you and how far away it is, and that's all they need to do. There are some minor animation effects for auras, and there's a dynamically adjusting line-of-sight which accounts for lighting, special senses, and blindness, as well.
Second, it's less random than most. You have a lot of quests to guide you, although you're still free to wander in any direction in order to meet something too tough for you and die. Item generation is mostly random, in the "adjective noun of noun verbing" mode, with a few powerful artifacts hand-placed. TOME 4'/ items can be very cool; I got some gloves, early on, that let me spit fire, a nice feature for an otherwise melee-bound combatant. There are also randomized areas within the quest areas to make sure things aren't too predictable.
Third, TOME 4 has an active community with a chat window. It's very nice to be able to ask for help while playing, or to show off the neat item you just found, or get sympathy on your latest demise. My experience is that the community is very friendly towards new players, which is only logical; as a genre, roguelikes have a small fanbase that isn't interested in driving off anyone who might just be dipping their toes in the water.
TOME 4 starts you with a limited set of possible classes and races, in order to ease you into the very deep mechanics of the game., But even the most basic class, a straight-up sword-and-shield fighter, offers you a multitude of options to pick from and choices to make as you gain in power. Playing also unlocks additional classes and races.
TOME is slightly more forgiving than many roguelikes, allowing you to optionally earn extra lives as you play, but these can go very quickly, especially as you pass the earliest levels of the game. A small run of bad luck, or a few poor decisions in a row, will take your lives much faster than you can earn them. Purists can choose to play with only one life, and there's also an option for unlimited lives.
There are a few minor bugs in TOME 4, as well as confusing interface issues. I was unable to scroll the windows with the mouse, but keyboarding up and down them worked fine. Some features, such as showing the list of monsters known, produce a message indicating they are working but don't do anything currently (I confirmed this is a known bug and not me doing something wrong.) There is a wiki which provides documentation, but it is sparse and acknowledges its incompleteness in several places. As with many games produced as labors of love, players must be prepared to roll their sleeves up and do a little work and research in order to get the most from the game. This sense of community can be part of the appeal.
TOME 4 was created with the (included) TE4 engine, and it1s possible to completely modify TOME, or to create your own custom roguelike. The engine documentation is extremely sparse, though, and there are several query threads in which the best answer given to some problems is to look at TOME's source code and reverse-engineer it to figure out how to accomplish a given task.
As a completely free download, the only thing you risk trying TOME4 is some time.Based on my experience, you will risk losing a lot more time if you like it, as it can have that "just one more minute" addictiveness that keeps you up many minutes more than you have.

text: When I visited USC for the first time, the energy that I witnessed between the students was unparalleled. USC's interdisciplinary education, small class sizes, strong network, and friendly atmosphere sealed the deal for me. Law school has sharpened my ability to think critically and deeply about the concepts that dictate the way our society is structured. In addition, it has made me understand how legal rules affect every day behavior. The many lessons that I have learned in law school so far have pushed me to join the Iraqi Refugee Assistance Project, Law Review, and the Mediation Clinic. After finishing my first year of law school and celebrating with my friends, I knew what we had all accomplished and to date that has been the greatest feeling.

There are several species of wild cotton (cotton that grows uncultivated ) in the world. They have been found in Australia, Africa, Arizona, Central America, Lower California, Brazil, Mexico and other tropical countries and islands. Because of problems related to their refinement, they are not economically feasible to use. Through genetic assistance and breeding, todays cottons have evolved from these wild sources and are more processing friendly.
Currently, there are five prominent types of cotton being grown commercially around the world. They are Egyptian, Sea Island, American Pima, Asiatic and Upland. Because of their need for a long, sunny growing period with at least 160 frost free days they are grown between latitudes 45 degrees north and 30 degrees south. The major producing countries within this region are the United States, Peoples Republic of China, India, Pakistan and Republic of Uzbekistan. Also, Brazil, Australia, Egypt, Argentina, Turkey, Greece, Syria and others produce significant, but lesser amount
In the U.S. there are fourteen major cotton growing states that produce Upland cotton. They are Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. Some cotton is also grown in Florida, Kansas and New Mexico. American Pima cotton is grown in Arizona, California, New Mexico and Texas. All of these states form a region in the United States known as the Cotton Belt and have three things in common, lots of sunshine, water and fertile soil, very important to growing a good cotton crop.
Upland cotton being the most common type in the U.S. has a staple length (length of fiber) of 13/16 to 1 ¼ inches. The American Pima has a staple length of 1 5/16 to 1 ½ inches. These plant types grow and mature at different rates and lengths of time, but basically mature within a 30 day period of each other.
Cotton plants have a general time frame in which they grow and produce after planting (introducing the seed to moist soil). With ideal conditions, the planted cotton seed will germinate (to begin to grow) or sprout and emerge in about five to ten days. The first 2 leaves that are visible on the young cotton plant are seedling leaves called cotyledons (cot-a-lee-dons). They are useful for absorbing sunlight into the plant. The sunlight is then converted through a process known as photosynthesis, into nourishing carbohydrates that will help the plant grow.
In about two to four weeks they turn over the photosynthetic task to true leaves (leaves produced subsequent to the cotyledons) which continue the feeding process for the duration of the plants life. The plant continues to grow, adding leaves and height, and in approximately five to seven weeks, small flower buds called squares (a small flower bud covered with fringed leaf-like parts called bracts) will appear on the cotton plant. As this square develops, the bud swells and begins to push through the bracts until it opens into an attractive flower. Within three days, the flower will pollinate (the transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma of the same or another flower) itself, change from a creamy white or yellow color to a pinkish red, and then wither and fall, exposing a small, green, immature cotton boll (a segmented pod containing 32 immature seeds from which the cotton fibers will grow). This boll is considered a fruit because it contains seeds. As the fibers continue to grow and thicken within the segmented boll, it enlarges until it becomes approximately the size of a small fig. Now, the cotton fibers have become mature and thickened with their primary growth substance, cellulose (a carbohydrate, the chief component of the cell wall in most plants). An average boll will contain nearly 500,000 fibers of cotton and each plant may bear up to 100 bolls
In about 140 days after planting or 45 days after bolls appear, the cotton boll will begin to naturally split open along the bolls segments or carpels and dry out, exposing the underlying cotton segments called locks. These dried carpels are known as the bur, and it's the bur that will hold the locks of cotton in place when fully dried and fluffed, ready for picking.
The growth cycle of the various cotton species vary in length, but the sequence of fruit production remain the same. Weather, insects and moisture can adversely affect optimum conditions for plant growth and it is the farmer's responsibility to adjust to these conditions to optimize yield.
Delta & Land Pine Company Delta and Pine Land Company is a commercial breeder, producer and marketer of cotton planting seed, as well as soybean seed in the Cotton Belt. For almost 90 years, the Company has used its extensive cotton plant breeding programs drawing from a diverse germplasm base to develop improved varieties.

Mad Men And Society's Race Problem
Sept. 28, 2010
"Mad Men" does not have a race problem.
It is true that Matt Weiner's award-winning AMC show is short on significant characters of color, but that doesn't mean that the issue of race is absent. It is there when a cocky ad man corners a black elevator operator and pumps him for information on what TV sets "Negroes" like. It is there in an appalling black face performance at a garden party. It is there when a pampered housewife tsk tsks to her black maid, "Maybe it's just not time for equal rights," or some such. It is there in the ad agency's easy acceptance of a client that "refuses to hire Negroes" in the South. It is there when white men use black women as pawns to bolster their bohemian cred or work out their daddy issues. It is there in the unyielding whiteness and casual racism of the Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce office.
The very absence of people of color in the main narrative of this show speaks volumes. To be clear, Mad Men is not about the mid-20th century. If it was, the show would deserve criticism for not making race a driving issue. But Mad Men is about Don Draper and the people in his orbit -- middle- to upper-class white Americans living and working around Manhattan in the late 50s to mid-60s. For these people, race and racism are largely invisible, until and unless the struggle for equality impinges upon their privilege.
Fellow Change.org columnist Carl Chancellor reminded me of Ralph Ellison's take on being a black man in the 50s: "I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me." Weiner deftly illustrates this invisibility -- the way race is there, but not there in the lives of his white protagonists. The issue of race throbs beneath the narrative like a tell-tale heart. It may often be unseen, but you can always hear the thump...thump...thump. It seems an honest handling by a show that distinguishes itself by knowledgeable, delicate and nuanced analysis of humanity and 50s/60s society within a fictional context. But generally, these days, discussion of race is anything but knowledgeable, delicate and nuanced. And that is the rub. "Mad Men" does not have a race problem. We do.
It is the knowledge of the nation's racial immaturity that plagues me when I watch "Mad Men". And I suspect it is this that bothers those who have criticized the show's handling of race. It is not that I cannot hear the thump, thump of race in the show's narrative. It is that I know many other people aren't as attuned to the sound.
A few weeks ago on "Mad Men", a leather-clad socialist tried to educate hip young copywriter Peggy Olson to the Civil Rights Movement. Peggy is dismissive, noting that as a woman she cannot do many of the things "Negroes" cannot do. "There are clubs I can't go to because I am a woman." Her date snorts, "Yeah, let's hold a civil rights march for women." Peggy later insists that a black man could be successful at SCDP if he worked hard "like I did." In this scene we see a man so wrapped in his gender privilege that he cannot even recognize sexism as a real and pressing problem. We also see a white woman refusing to own her own racial privilege and ignoring the existence of black women. It makes sense that a relatively sheltered young woman, in 1965, who suffers unrelenting sexism in the office, but little exposure to black people, would think this way. But many black women spent the whole of the 2008 presidential primary season arguing with white feminists who similarly marginalized us and minimized racism. Hearing fan favorite Peggy Olson take this position felt like an endorsement of a point of view that is sadly not dead yet. I found myself cringing at the scene, irritated at the writers, but perhaps more irritated at "Mad Men's" viewers, who I guessed would miss a key element of the dialogue. Sure enough, Monday morning on show forums, many people were hailing Peggy for telling it like it is. Too many viewers noticed the sexism in the scene, but missed the racism. "Mad Men" got it right. Some viewers sadly missed the point.
Then, there is the infamous scene when everyone's favorite office manager, Joan Holloway, demeans Sheila, a young, black woman who is dating Paul, who once dated Joan. Poseur Paul introduces Joan to his (surprise) black girlfriend, Sheila, the manager of a local supermarket. When the ladies are left to talk, Joan first patronizes Sheila, intoning that maybe one day she'll be able to "pull up in a station wagon" and shop at the supermarket, as well as work there. When Sheila points out that she has already shopped there, as she grew up in the suburb, Joan turns more nasty: (paraphrasing) It's great that you and Paul are together. When we were together I wouldn't have thought he would be so broad-minded. It's left to the viewers' imaginations what else Joan may have said, but later in the office Paul confronts her and she accuses him of dating Sheila merely to seem "interesting."
The meaning of the interaction between Joan and Sheila seems obvious to me, especially given the early 60s time frame. The Civil Rights Act had not been signed. There had been no Freedom Summer. Blacks in several states could not vote. Is it such a surprise that the average American held racially-biased beliefs? To me, it is no more surprising than the sexism that runs rampant in the show. But many commenters on "Mad Men" forums disagreed. Our Joanie would never be racist.
Ours is a time when an uncomfortably large number of people either believe we live in a post-racial Utopia or that America is under attack by Mexican immigrants and a suspiciously brown president who may or may not be a member of Kenyan Muslim terrorist sleeper cell. Nuance is not our thing. We revel in the black-and-white. The media and political talking heads deal less with facts and analysis than fear and faux righteous indignation. Many of us are forced to deal with race as minorities in a majority culture. And many anti-racist allies proactively study and analyze race and racism. But despite race's significant role in the country's history and present, most Americans don't notice it and would rather not think about it. People are as entrenched in their privilege as they were 45 years ago. And race and racism remain invisible, until and unless racial equality impinges upon that privilege.
A lot of people blithely ignored the strange monochromatic New York of Seinfeld and Friends. Why should we expect them to notice the absence of people of color on "Mad Men" and analyze what it says about the United States in the mid-60s?
The issue of race is very present in Mad Men. Many viewers simply would rather not see it.
That is the problem. It is not Matt Weiner's problem. It is ours.

A long, long time. So long, in fact, that some people might be giving up hope—well, don't. We've got some news for you. At South Korea's G-Star gaming convention, Korean news site inven (via tipster Sang) managed to snag an interview with producer Sang-Yoon Lee, who revealed that the PC version of KUFII will, in some form, launch next month in Malaysia and Singapore (and South Korea as well). "In what form," you might ask. Unfortunately, Lee did not elaborate on that, but he did apologize to long-time fans for the wait. And, judging by the two new trailers shared by inven, the game is coming along pretty damn nicely.At G-Star, Lee also talked about the reasons behind the long wait. In an interview with another Korean site, This Is Game (also via tipster Sang), he explained that their group halved in size over time—only 80 developers are working on the game today out of the original 160. Financial issues threatened the project as well, with a planned open beta in December 2012 eventually getting scrapped due to a lack of funds. Advertisement Still, it looks like the game's slowly reaching the end of its journey. Kingdom Under Fire II for PC is launching in parts of Asia next month, with the PS4 version aimed for May 2014, and an Xbox One version, according to the This Is Game interview, currently in its "we're thinking about it" stage of development. No word on any Western release dates just yet, but at this point, I'd say it's just a matter of time."다음 달, 동남아부터 시작" '킹덤언더파이어2' 이상윤 사장 인터뷰 [inven, thanks Sang!] Advertisement "킹덤언더파이어 2, 내년 상반기에는 꼭 선보이겠다" [This Is Game, thanks again Sang!]Questions?

Gluttony: Hostess Brands Asks for $1.8 Million in Executive Bonuses for Those Who Wrecked the Company
While Hostess Brands Inc. is shedding 18,000 of its workers' jobs, top level executives who ran the company into the ground are asking for bonus pay to the tune of $1.8 million.
Today, Hostess executives plan to ask the judge, who is ruling in the liquidation proceedings, for bonus pay "to retain the 19 managers during the liquidation process, which could take about a year."
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka says:
Despite public backlash, Hostess still intends to pay $1.8 million in bonuses to executives who wrecked an iconic American company and killed more than 18,000 jobs. This is further proof that the hedge funds currently in charge of the company have their values completely upside down.
Wall Street apologists have tied themselves in knots to put the entire blame on workers for the damage done at Hostess by corporate greed and mismanagement. They'll spin the news again, but regular Americans won't buy it for a minute. The electorate rejected Mitt Romney and his corporate culture at the ballot box. When will these guys learn?

By Paul Balles
To the best of my knowledge, you are the second Western government official with the courage to take action against Israeli passport fraudsters.
In March, the UK expelled an unnamed Israeli diplomat, but waffled on the identification of Mossad as the culprit. Reported in the Guardian, "Without mentioning the Mossad by name, he [Milibrand] added "the government judges it is highly likely that the forgeries were made by a state intelligence service."
At the time, the Guardian said, "British investigators had interviewed all the passport holders affected, who hold dual British-Israeli citizenship, and "found no evidence to suggest any of those individuals were anything other than innocent victims of identity theft." How were their identities stolen?
Video: Israeli diplomat expelled over fake passports (The Midday Report)
The activity exposed–creating fraudulent passports–has been going on in Israel for many years. Intelligence agencies around the world have known this at least since the publication of Victor Ostrovsky's By Way of Deception in 1990.
However, despite available facts about Israel's officially operated identity theft and forgery for 20 years, the knowledge went no further than the intelligence agencies and the officials they reported to.
The only meaningful conclusion from ignoring or silencing what the intelligence community knew is that their governments were complicit in the continuing fraud.
For those unfamiliar with Victor Ostrovsky, he reveals in his book that he came "from an ardent Zionist background," and spent four years inside Mossad, Israel's intelligence organization.
Ostrovsky notes that the head of the academy introduced Mossad by saying "Our motto is: 'By way of deception, thou shalt do war.'" The recent passport forgeries make clear that Mossad's motto has not changed.
According to Ostrovsky, academy training involved lectures on passports: "The most important Mossad documents are passports, and there are four qualities: top, second, field operation and throw away."
Mossad obviously had the design and use of false passports down to a fine art. In the latest case, it seems they bungled an operation they worked so hard to perfect.
"Throwaway passports," notes Ostrovsky, had little changed beside the photo and "weren't used for identification. A field operations passport was used for quick work in a foreign country," writes Ostrovsky. "But it was not used when crossing borders."
Second quality passports were "perfect passports" notes Ostrovsky, "but there were no real persons behind them." The descriptions of the types and uses of various types of passports by Mossad reveal the lengths they went to deceive.
Finally, Ostrovsky reports, "A top quality passport…had both a cover story and a person behind it who could back up the story. They would stand up completely to any official scrutiny,"
That might have been true for the other countries whose passports were recently used in the assassination of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai.
Ostrovsky reveals the extent to which Mossad goes to forge passports: "A phony passport cannot be manufactured with the wrong paper, so the Mossad had a small factory and a chemical laboratory in the basement of the Academy that actually made various kinds of passport paper."
Ostrovsky comments on a Mossad action committed when he was a trainee: "I saw a large batch of blank Canadian passports. They must have been stolen. It looked like an entire shipment. There were over 1000 of them. I don't think the shipment was ever reported missing–not in the media anyway."
Involved in this criminal activity as a forger, Israel has been free to break laws, deceive governments, and silence the media for at least 20 years. From that perspective, Minister, isn't it time for the West to stop being complicit in these crimes?
Sincerely yours,
Paul Balles

Home Solar Cheaper Than Every Concentrating Solar Power Plant
| Written by John Farrell | 3 Comments | Updated on Jan 13, 2011 The content that follows was originally published on the Institute for Local Self-Reliance website at https://ilsr.org/home-solar-cheaper-every-concentrating-solar-power-plant/A residential rooftop solar PV system in Los Angeles, CA, has a cheaper cost per kilowatt-hour of electricity delivered than the most cost effective, utility-scale concentrating solar power plant.
In 2010, a buying group called Open Neighborhoods openly advertised an opportunity to get a solar PV system installed for $4.78 per Watt (not including any tax credits, rebates, or grants), a system that would produce approximately 1,492 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year (AC) for each kilowatt of capacity (DC).
Based on the best available public information about the costs and performance of operational concentrating solar thermal power plants, the PS10 solar power tower – an 11 MW installation in Spain – has the lowest levelized cost of operation of any concentrating solar power plant that produces electricity. PS10 had an installed cost of $4.15 per Watt and produces 2,127 kWh per kW of capacity.
However, due to higher operations costs and a higher cost of capital (8% rather than 5%) for a concentrating solar power plant, the levelized cost of the residential rooftop system (17.3 cents per kWh) is less than that of the power tower (19.9 cents per kWh).
This analysis also does not include any transmission infrastructure or efficiency losses, either of which would increase the levelized cost of the concentrating solar power plant. It also did not include the lower price point from Open Neighborhoods, which advertised a possibility of driving the price down to $4.22 per Watt (driving the levelized cost down to 15.3 cents per kWh).
The Southern California Edison project, also featured in the chart, is another example of low-cost distributed solar PV, with the 250 MW project spread across commercial rooftops in 1-2 MW increments but still achieving large scale.
Ultimately, this data further confirms that distributed solar can be delivered less expensively than centralized solar power.

As the Massachusetts Senate prepares to debate an Act to Protect Public Safety, a proposal that deals with parole reform, habitual offenders, and sentencing, Boston Bar Association President Lisa C. Goodheart issued the following statement:
"We are disappointed that the draft bill, in its current form, is aimed at reducing rather than repealing mandatory sentences for non-violent drug offenders, and in this regard, we believe that it does not go far enough.
Public safety is not enhanced by mandatory minimum sentences for nonviolent drug offenders. We can promote public safety by a sensible approach that favors treatment over incarceration for these offenders, especially since mandatory sentences mean that these offenders will likely return to the community without developing the tools they need to successfully reintegrate into society. Criminal justice reform legislation should include sentencing reform for drug offenses. The draft Senate sentencing bill is an opportunity to implement meaningful and sensible change in this area by eliminating mandatory minimum sentences for nonviolent drug offenders.
Repealing mandatory sentences for nonviolent drug offenders is sensible, fiscally responsible and far more protective of public safety than a system which relies on mandatory incarceration and ineligibility for positive programs and parole considerations."
For over two decades, the Boston Bar Association has encouraged discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of the Commonwealth's criminal justice system, especially with regard to sentencing reform and prisoner re-entry. The BBA has issued four major reports addressing the issue of mandatory minimum sentencing: "Drugs and Justice: A System Abandoned" (1989), "Drugs in the Community: A Scourge Beyond the System" (1990), "The Crisis in Corrections and Sentencing in Massachusetts" (1991) and "Parole Practices in Massachusetts and Their Effect on Community Reintegration" (2002).

Although the Brief Edition is a derivative of Macroeconomics 18e, is not a cut-and-paste book that simply eliminates several chapters of Macroeconomics 18e and reorders and renumbers the retained content. Instead, Macroeconomics, Brief Edition is a very concise, highly integrated economics textbook that is distinct in purpose, style, and coverage from Macroeconomics 18e.

what is the best combo of cardio/strength training?
This is exactly why I joined PT.
I've tried to figure this out for weeks online, but I was just doing searches...silly me. Should've remembered that Corporate America is not actually interested helping people, just shearing the fleece.
So, here's the Question:
should I incorporate cardio every day, and strength train occasionally?
should I strength train every day, and do cardio once in a while?
shoul I do both every day?
should I alternate, and if so, in what combinations?
Any help would be great, trying to find a simple answer surfing is impossible:)
Sat. Nov 3, 7:32pm
You can do cardio every day, but should take a day off between weight training sessions to let your muscles repair. Some trainers will recommend that you take one day a week off of cardio too, but not all. And some people will do weight training every day, but break it up by doing upper body one day and lower the next, so still giving the muscles a chance to repair between sessions.
Personally, I do cardio almost every day and weights every other. I must admit that I "feel" like my metabolism stays up longer on weight training days.
Saturday, November 03, 2007, 8:45 PM
I don't imagin there's ONE best, but there are general guidelines to minimize injury. And a lot depends upon what kinds of cardio you like to do. For some, daily running would be too much wear and tear, and I would be bored to tears doing cardio every day! I strength train on consecutive days 5 to 6 days a week, but I always alternate muscle groups so they get that day of rest the pp mentioned. For ideas, the ABs Diet book has some great workout schedules depending upon how many days a week you have to work out and it gives you the strength training and ab moves to do for each day. It also has plans for interval training on cardio machines - it's a great resource.
Saturday, November 03, 2007, 11:39 PM
Bounce to health
Hey, OP here. The main cardio exercise I'm trying to incorporate is rebounding(Trampoline). I'll probably alternate between that and my free weights day to day and see how that works. I think that cardio every day would bore me, and I probably wouldn't keep it up.
Sunday, November 04, 2007, 1:26 AM
I do cardio 5 days a week and strength training every other day. I change up my cardio routines so that I don't get bored with it. Jogging/elliptical/kickboxing for cardio.
Sunday, November 04, 2007, 1:52 AM
You can also get a cardio workout when you strength train, too!
Sunday, November 04, 2007, 7:49 AM
i think cardio every day and stregthtraining every other/every 2 days would be good... for cardio ideas:(sicne that's the easiest to get bored with)
Taking a beginner's dance class (such as hip hop)
Carmen Elektra's Aerobic Striptease (lol so much fun)
etc etc. As for stregth training, I'd rotate, opper body, lower body, abs/hips/general midsection, Some women I know do upper body every other rotation, because they don't want 'masculine' arms.
Sunday, November 04, 2007, 8:30 PM
OP again...Aerobic striptease!?!? Dooo Tell....
Sunday, November 04, 2007, 9:22 PM
op here-Also, I'm kinda...how do you say...um...A man. So I kinda would like masculine arms.
Sunday, November 04, 2007, 9:23 PM
8.30 here
Hahahaha I missed that XD sorrry!!
lol but you can strip tease too if you'd like lol. it's just a workout video she makes.
Monday, November 05, 2007, 12:37 PM
He might get any extra high from doing the video than we would. lol
Ever watch the King of Queens where Carrie is horrible at her pole dancig class, but Doug rocks? Too funny.

Annual program set to honor veterans in Mt. Pleasant
The Mt. Pleasant community will honor its veterans with a parade and program on Monday.
The event is sponsored by the Mt. Pleasant American Legion and the Mt. Pleasant VFW.
The parade lineup will begin at 10 a.m. at the corner of Eagle and Main streets. The parade starts at 10:30 a.m., said Mt. Pleasant American Legion Treasurer William Lozier.
The parade will continue to the Veterans Wall where a program will begin at 11 a.m.
The Veterans Day program will feature comments by local officials.
Keynote speaker will be Staff Sgt. Andrew Auckerman of the 1st Battalion, 110th Infantry, National Guard Unit.
The Mt. Pleasant Viking Tower of Power marching band will participate as will the Mt. Pleasant Fireman's Band.
A silent tribute will be held, and ladies from the VFW and American Legion auxiliaries will take part in the laying of the wreaths.
"Mt. Pleasant is always happy to do what we can to honor our veterans," Mayor Jerry Lucia said. "Our programs for the veterans are usually always well attended, and we hope that this year's will be no exception."
Lozier said all veterans from the area are invited to participate in the parade and program.
The event is only one of the few days where veterans are honored, said Lozier.
"Veterans Day is only one of two days that are singled out to honor veterans," Lozier said. "People need to be reminded of the sacrifices that both veterans and their families made, with some even paying the ultimate price."
There will be refreshments for parade participants served after the program at the American Legion.
Veterans from the Donegal area will hold a Veterans Day celebration at 7 p.m. Saturday at the Donegal American Legion.

The hole—200 feet across and 80 feet deep—greeted residents of Schmalkalden, a town of 20,000 in the state of Thuringia, on Monday morning. Locals awoke in the early hours of morning to a deep rumble and saw this massive crater upon sunrise:All Schmalkaldeners escaped with their lives, but the hole claimed an automobile and left several others teetering over the edges of radically reconstructed driveways. Advertisement Experts are yet to determine what caused the crater to develop, but its circular shape is characteristic of sinkholes, which are created by the dissolution of carbonate rocks undeground. There comes a point when the dissolved rock can no longer support the weight of structures above and it is around this point when you should run for your life.

text: When I worked as a guide in Denali National Park I didn't own a single pair of pants that didn't have a blueberry stain on them somewhere. It probably didn't help that two of my favorite activities were berry picking and the tundra nap. I always though it would be great to use the blueberries to make a dye for yarn and t-shirts. The color is just beautiful, I just never had enough willpower not to eat them all instead. These cupcakes made with blueberry puree allow you to enjoy the beautiful color of the squashed berries without sacrificing the eating part. You will have to tell people that they are all natural, the color is quite dramatic as is the intense blueberry flavor. These really are cupcakes, soft and smooth, not resembling a blueberry muffin at all (in a good way). I was thrilled with the results and can't wait to make them again.

(JED/IFEX) - On 29 June 2003, at around 5:00 p.m. (local time), Pierre-Sosthène Kambidi, a journalist with the private broadcaster Kilimandjaro, based in Tshikapa (in West Kasai province, central Democratic Republic of Congo), and JED's correspondent in the city, was assaulted by Congolese Armed Forces (Forces armées congolaises, FAC) soldiers at Tshikapa's Kanzala stadium. He suffered an injury to his left eye. The troops were under the command of one Sub-Lieutenant Masiya, who was not otherwise identified. The journalist is being treated for his injury at Tshikapa's Passy medical centre. He lost his cellular phone and the money he had on him during the incident.
According to information received by JED, soldiers tried to prevent Kilimandjaro cameraman Patrick Tshibwabwa from filming a football match between two local teams, FC Momekano and AS Bakolo Mboka. As Kambidi intervened, he was attacked by Sub-Lieutenant Masiya's men. Masiya told him, "You know that we were looking for you ... because you are [Etienne] Tshisekedi's man." Tshisekedi is president of the opposition Union pour la démocratie et le progrès social (UDPS).
Tshibwabwa was arrested and taken to the detention facility located at FAC's Tshikapa headquarters. He was released three hours later, but his camera was confiscated.

Twitter exploded this Wednesday when a seeming innocuous comment by Simon Pegg, saw the former Doctor Who guest star wander into a mass free for all/debate on sexism and sexual identity in Geek culture.
Recapping events Courtney Stoker aka @cnstoker, a Doctor Who blogger and feminist took offence to Pegg's declaration that he had a thing for female cosplayers after he posted a picture of a dozen girls dressed in Leia's slave-girl outfit from Return of the Jedi along with this misjudged comment:
*makes noise like Homer Simpson thinking of donuts*
Anyway, Stoker called Pegg out on his apparent 'gross' behaviour arguing that declaring your sexual attraction in such a way for a woman robs that woman of her identity albeit using the most flimsy and hypocritical material available – not to mention using Pegg's comments subjectively, rather than in the context they were made.
Leia's costume has been culturally acknowledged – in Friends and indeed in Pegg's own film Paul – as powering many a geek fantasy. Rounding on someone who finds something acknowledged as being a fantasy outfit for having a Leia fantasy isn't the basis for a strong argument.
There is an interesting debate to be had on the issues raised but there are problems with her recap (which includes all the tweets between her and Pegg) and, indeed, in Pegg's responses and not just that Homer Simpson quote above.
In the first paragraph of her recap Stoker casually lumps Pegg in with US comedian Daniel Tosh whose attempt to defend rape jokes at a comedy gig ended pretty much how you'd expect it to end.
It's reductive to link offensive, pointed jokes about rape and a misguided comment about attraction as both being generally about "being douchey about women."
What's interesting about both the Tosh and Pegg incidents is the context for debate; Tosh, thought the audience would go for his jokes – call it hubris, call it ignorance; what can't be questioned is that Tosh was taken aback by a negative heckler and cracked a rebuttal which was as funny as it was insightful – it was as if he was expecting the crowd to just side with him because they had ponied up the money to see him.
Conversely, because the recipient of the rape insult had paid to see him she felt entitled to tell the entertainer when he crossed a line.
Maybe its money but Tosh's victim voted with her feet, it was later that her friend then took to the internet to blog about his indecent behaviour – this made the story national news in the US. Stoker took to twitter, demand Pegg apologise directly, forced herself into a debate that quickly got muddied and wouldn't relent.
There's scope for some Twitter debate but to directly accost someone's page chances are when a succinct comment drops that you don't agree with and you don't seek clarity beyond those limited characters and you substitute any clarity with your own subjective opinion of what you thought they meant; chances are the converted crowd of followers will crush you with glee.
Stoker, who apparently still thinks that the internet is used for enlightening and progressive debates rather than a handy place to upload hilarious cat videos and to vent hate via the anonymity of a username – was aggressively rounded on by Pegg's followers (despite him telling them not to) after she, with equal aggression demanded he apologise (which he did eventually do.)
The result is that she now has her page set to private.
The downside of both sides aggression – with or without Pegg or Stoker's request is that it further alienates women from being welcomed fully into the cosplay world – for fans who simply want to show of their geek pride it hardly paints the most rational picture of the world they wish to enter.

If you're a fan of Frank Lloyd Wright's architecture, then a pilgrimage to Fallingwater in Mill Run, PA, is definitely in order. The Allegheny Mountains retreat just outside of Pittsburgh appears to levitate over a 30-foot waterfall. Wright wanted its homeowners to live within the falls and make them a part of their lives. A guided tour reveals what life might be like surrounded by the sound of rushing falls, as you're cradled inside a home complete with furnishings designed by Wright himself.
Created in 1974 by a group of artists called the Ant Farm, this graffiti-splattered homage to Cadillacs represents the car's evolution from 1949 to 1963. Travelers along Interstate 40, near Amarillo, TX, can see Cadillac Ranch from the road.
Don't be surprised to see a life-size Tyrannosaurus rex perched alongside the road while driving on Interstate 10 in Cabazon, CA. Visitors can climb to the top of the dinosaur for a close-up view of its teeth. Make a pit stop to pick up souvenirs at the museum shop, located inside Ms. Dinny, a 150-ton Apatosaurus, considered the largest concrete dino in the world.
James Wolverton, a naturalist who served among General William Tecumseh Sherman's troops, named this sequoia tree after the Civil War general in 1879. According to the US Department of the Interior, it is the largest tree by volume, standing 275 feet and 52,000 cubic feet. Nature lovers can appreciate the beauty of this tree by taking Generals Highway, located off US Highways 180 and 198 in southeastern California.
Visitors should add this roadside attraction to their travel plans. In Inglewood, CA, near the Los Angeles International Airport, stands the famous Randy's Donuts. The donut-shaped façade of this landmark building is just as popular as the tasty pastries made inside this 24-hour bakery. Located on the corner of West Manchester Boulevard and La Cienega Boulevard near Interstate 405, the giant donut -- built in 1953 -- has been featured in videos and movies like 2012, Iron Man 2 and Get Shorty.
The world's largest bottle of ketchup remains in Collinsville, IL, even after the bottlers of Brooks Rich & Tangy Ketchup left town in the 1970s. This 170-foot-tall water tower was built in 1949 for the G.S. Suppiger ketchup-bottling plant, the bottlers of Brooks. The bottle reads "catsup" after the original Brooks bottle. Plan your road trip in July and attend the annual Catsup Bottle Festival, featuring a hot-dog-eating contest, ketchup tasting and crowning of Little Princess Tomato and Sir Catsup.
Meet Lenny, the world's only life-size moose made of 1,700 pounds of creamy milk chocolate. Located in Scarborough, ME, Lenny draws tourists to Len Libby Candies, a store that sells handcrafted chocolate and ice cream just south of Portland.
Eastman Kodak recognized lumberjack Paul Bunyan, along with his trusty sidekick Babe the Blue Ox, as the 2nd most photographed icons in the nation. These oversized, mythical characters stand high above the shore of Lake Bemidji, near the Tourist Information Center in Bemidji, MN. Road trippers can also see other versions of the colossal statues in Bangor, ME; Portland, OR, and Klamath, CA.
This 55-foot-tall Jolly Green Giant is a must-see if you're planning a road trip from Minneapolis to Iowa. Visit the town of Blue Earth, MN, to see this roadside attraction, built in 1978 to commemorate the completion of nearby Interstate 90. The vegetable company gave the town permission to use its symbol as long as the townspeople provided 100% of the funds to build it.
Just north of Alliance, NE, on Highway 87, road trippers should keep an eye out for Carhenge. In 1987, artist Jim Reinders created this replica of the UK's Stonehenge using 38 automobiles placed in a circle measuring approximately 96 feet in diameter. Additional, smaller sculptures have been created at the site, known as the Car Art Reserve.
See the world's largest ball of stamps on Flanagan Boulevard in Boys Town, NE. The Boys Town Stamp Collecting Club started collecting stamps in 1953 to create this oversized sphere that today measures 32 inches in diameter, weighs 600 pounds and contains almost 5 million canceled stamps. The Ball reached its current size in 1955, and was featured in the syndicated newspaper column, "Ripley's Believe It Or Not."
In Margate, NJ, locals and visitors can climb a spiral staircase into the howdah, or bed, atop Lucy the Elephant. From this perch, it's possible to see views of Margate, NJ, the Atlantic City skyline and Atlantic Ocean. This 130-year-old, 65-foot pachyderm -- located along the beach in Josephine Herron Park -- has on-site, outdoor picnic tables, so pack a lunch.
One of the more recently built roadside attractions is the World's Largest Pistachio Nut in Alamogordo, NM. Built in 2009, this 30-foot-tall nut was dedicated to the owner of McGinn's Pistachio Tree Farm (aka PistachioLand), who, according to locals, was a big fan of roadside attractions. It's worth a detour.
Take a break from driving to see this cottonwood tree just off US 50 -- also known as the "loneliest road in America" -- in Middlegate, NV. Tourists and locals drape footwear on the branches of the Shoe Tree.
See local artist Gary Greff's collection of the world's largest scrap metal sculptures along the Enchanted Highway, a 32-mile stretch of road between Regent and Gladstone, ND. Some of the sculptures have picnic shelters where travelers can stop for lunch, or weary drivers can check in at Gary's motel in Regent, The Enchanted Castle.
Planning a road trip near or through Tulsa, OK? Check out the Golden Driller, a 76-foot-tall, 22-ton concrete and iron rendering of a man. The statue was erected in 1953 to celebrate Tulsa's good fortune as entrepreneurs rushed to capitalize on the growing number of oil fields in the area. Built to withstand a 200-mph tornado, this roadside attraction was declared Oklahoma's official state monument in 1979.
This isn't your regular Jurassic Park! Head to Dinosaur Park if you're traveling near Rapid City, SD. This 75-year-old outdoor park is full of dino statues that project a decidedly 1930s'-era understanding of these creatures. Dinosaur Park is located on Skyline Drive and is almost as popular an attraction as nearby Mount Rushmore.
In 1968, John Milkovisch, a retired upholsterer for the Southern Pacific Railroad covered his house with aluminum siding made entirely of 50,000 flattened beer cans, bottles and other beer paraphernalia. Locals and visitors can visit this artsy house located on 222 Malone Street in Houston, TX.
In Phillips, WI, artist Fred Smith created more than 200 concrete sculptures, scattered across 3.5 acres of this 16-acre small-town park. After Fred's death in 1976, the Kohler Foundation spearheaded the park's restoration and turned over control of the park to Price County, to be used as a public art park.
Travelers visiting the Natural Bridge in Virginia should also pay a visit to its neighbor, a full-size, Styrofoam replica of the UK's Stonehenge. In 2004, American artist and entertainer Mark Cline built Foamhenge on a hillside in the Shenandoah Valley.

7 Fast Fixes for Hair Color EmergenciesMaintaining your hair color can be a pain -- and expensive. See our quick tips to fix your hair color disasters at home |
If you color your hair to camouflage gray roots, but you don't have time to touch up before your next board meeting, Robinson says to "try dusting a matching shade of eyeshadow on your part to hide grays." Here's how to apply it: "Take a makeup brush, dampen the bristles and dip into powder. Then, dab the shadow on your part where it's gray," says Robinson.

i thought that you will give info on how to correct each type of color disaster like, multiple color from purple hair dye or orange color after bleach. but this is quite okay.

Any tips when it comes to hair color are helpful.
by TBjunkie Monday, April 30, 2012 at 01:12AM Report as inappropriate
Not quite what I expected to see, but good advice none the less. I thought there would be ways to correct actual coloring disaster like purple hair from an ashy blonde or hair turning nearly black from a dark blonde dye kit... guess there aren't ways to fix that aside from going to the salon...
by CCochran Wednesday, April 4, 2012 at 11:34AM Report as inappropriate
Several of these are helpful, although I disagree that side-braiding your hair makes grown-out roots or highlights any less noticeable.

text: Inflatable Bike Case Protects Your Wheels When TravelingKat Hannaford3/11/10 3:40pmFiled to: TravelBiknd helium caseBikeBikesBikndheliumBagCaseTravelingtransport52EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink A niche market, yes, but when you reach a certain age and the idea of going on a cycling-and-camping holiday in a foreign country appeals, you've got to consider how to transport your bike over. Advertisement I've always thought just hiring a bike in the chosen country would work out cheaper, but some people have spent too much time—and money—pimping their bikes to optimum levels and would rather walk than ride a hire bike. So! Onto the inflatable Helium case, from Biknd.For starters, you'll need to remove the bike's wheels, seat, pedals and handlebar, so it all fits into the bike pack. It's made from flexible nylon and polyester, with a Cordura nylon crank and chain-stay cover. Then comes the novel part, and the reason Biknd named the case the Helium. Advertisement Connect a foot pump, and pumping it a few hundred times will inject enough air into it that it'll inflate the bag—protecting the bike from bumps in the luggage hold of a plane. Wheels make it easy to drive through airports, bearing in mind the deflated case alone weighs 9.5kgs.Did I mention the price? No? It's $600—so you've got to be a real bike enthusiast to outlay that kind of moolah on transporting your cherished wheels about. [Biknd via Oh! Gizmo via Wired]Reply52 repliesLeave a reply

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

By Errol Castens/NEMS Daily Journal
OXFORD – Mass transit, energy-efficient construction and recycling have earned national attention for the University of Mississippi and its efforts toward a sustainable campus.
Ole Miss is one of the institutions featured in The Princeton Review's Guide to 311 Green Colleges, which was released last week online.
The University of Southern Mississippi was the only other Mississippi campus chosen for the publication.
Jim Morrison, campus sustainability coordinator, said Ole Miss has made advances on a number of sustainability fronts in recent years.
"There is a lot happening on our campus in regard to sustainability that many people are just beginning to realize, and the university's inclusion in the Princeton Review's guide helps us communicate these efforts," Morrison said.
Positive changes
"Our campus sustainability program is gaining momentum and driving positive changes with initiatives like our Rebel Pedals bike share program, OUT bus system, new recycling infrastructure, cutting edge network of smart meters and numerous other exciting programs that are all focused on providing not only a more sustainable campus environment but an academic experience that educates tomorrow's leaders on the principles of a sustainable future.
Ole Miss and Oxford also just completed their annual Green Week observance themed "Let's Go Local," which included a host of events aimed at raising awareness of how individuals and institutions alike can be more environmentally responsible. Among the activities were a tour of energy- and material-efficient homes and the new Khayat Law Center, an "Eat Local" panel discussion featuring award-winning chef John Currence and national food writer John T. Edge, garden-related workshops and awards for local leaders of sustainability.
"College-bound students are increasingly interested in sustainability issues," said Robert Franek, Senior VP, Publishing, The Princeton Review, which is not affiliated with Princeton University. "Together with the USGBC, we are pleased to make this free resource available to all students seeking to attend colleges that practice, teach and support environmentally-responsible choices. We highly recommend the colleges in this book."


text: Identity theft tops the list of consumer complaints that are reported to the FTC and other enforcement agencies every year. The most recent figures from the Bureau of Justice statistics indicate that 11.7 million people, representing 5 percent of all people in the U.S. age 16 and older, were victims of identity theft between 2006 and 2008. Identity theft can be perpetrated using such low-tech methods as purse snatching or "dumpster diving," or high-tech techniques like deceptive "phishing" e-mails or malicious software known as "spyware." Identity theft is a crime. While the FTC does not have criminal jurisdiction, it supports the criminal investigation and prosecution through its Identity Theft Data Clearinghouse, which is the nation's repository for identity theft complaints and a part of the FTC's Consumer Sentinel complaint database. In addition to housing over a million ID theft complaints, Sentinel offers its more than 2,000 law enforcement agencies a variety of tools to facilitate the investigations and prosecution of identity theft. These include information to help agencies coordinate effective joint action; sample indictments; tools to refresh investigative data through programmed data searches; and access to "hot address" data bases.
