Sneak peek: Lady Gaga is 'a bit of s---' on <i>The Simpsons</i>
Lady Gaga is used to being animated, but not in this way.
Wearing no less than 18 different outfits including her famous meat dress and firework bra, the 'Born This Way' hit-maker takes over Springfield for the upcoming Simpsons season finale.
Watch the awesome sneak-peek trailer for 'Lisa Goes Gaga' above. Hot tip: Look out for Maggie's new DIY Gaga-inspired look. Visionary.
Gaga commented on her guest appearance, saying, "I play a bit of a s---. The apple doesn't fall far from my artistic tree."
"I would say this is one of the coolest thing's I've ever done. My dad's probably going to do 80 backflips when the episode comes out."
In the episode, Gaga tries to help make Lisa feel less like an outsider, and somehow ends up making out with Marge.
Gaga joins an elite group of musicians like Michael Jackson, U2 and Johnny Cash who've guest-starred on the long-running show, now in its 23rd season (see our gallery of guest stars below).
Speaking of The Simpsons and music, check out this amazing vocal cover of the show's theme song by YouTube dude Nick McKaig. It's even been picked up for the end credits of episode 15 of season 23.

Recently, I have signed up for the Secondary DNS service with you, and I was able to transfer my zone file for d8a.us from my unpublished primary DNS server. The problem is that only your ns1.rollernet.us is reflecting the correct zone records. The ns2.rollernet.us is still pointing to some stale zone data from many years ago when I used your service. Can this be fixed/synced, so that both DNS servers have the same correct zone file records? My primary DNS is configured to allow communication and notification with both of your secondary DNS servers.
Thanks for any help,

Re: Stale zone records on NS2.rollernet.us
Click the delete zone file button (trash can icon) under the configuration screen where it shows the zone file status.

Re: Stale zone records on NS2.rollernet.us
I have actually read the FAQ and I deleted my zone before posting here. That fixed only the NS1, but not NS2. They were both wrong in the beginning. I'll try again and this time I'll wait 24h before re-adding it, instead of 15 min. Hopefully that will do it. Thanks.
Re: Stale zone records on NS2.rollernet.us
Deleting the zone and deleting the zone files are different; which one did you do?

Thank you for your reply.Seth wrote:Deleting the zone and deleting the zone files are different; which one did you do?
I did both. Several days ago, when both secondary servers were showing old records, I deleted and re-added the whole zone and that updated the NS1, but not NS2. Today about 3 hours ago, I went to the control panel and removed just the zone file for the NS2. I waited about 30 minutes, upped the serial # on my primary and notified the secondary servers. NS2 still shows "No Zone File", but when I go to the rollernet logs, it shows that NS1 and NS2 communicated with my primary and both reflect the correct serial number. However only NS1 received the zone records transfer. So, right now NS2 says that it has no zone file, but it still responds with some bogus information. What should I do?
nslookup d8a.us ns1.rollernet.us
Server: UnKnown
Address: 126.96.36.199
Name: d8a.us
Address: 188.8.131.52

Address: 184.108.40.206
Name: d8a.us
Address: 126.96.36.199
Re: Stale zone records on NS2.rollernet.us
Ok, I checked again today and it looks like both secondary servers are responding with the correct information. Thank you for all your help.

|Control and Manipulation of Pathogens with an Optical Trap for Live Cell Imaging of Intercellular Interactions

|The application of live cell imaging allows direct visualization of the dynamic interactions between cells of the immune system. Some preliminary observations challenge long-held beliefs about immune responses to microorganisms; however, the lack of spatial and temporal control between the phagocytic cell and microbe has rendered focused observations into the initial interactions of host response to pathogens difficult. This paper outlines a method that advances live cell imaging by integrating a spinning disk confocal microscope with an optical trap, also known as an optical tweezer, in order to provide exquisite spatial and temporal control of pathogenic organisms and place them in proximity to host cells, as determined by the operator. Polymeric beads and live, pathogenic organisms (Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus) were optically trapped using non-destructive forces and moved adjacent to living cells, which subsequently phagocytosed the trapped particle. High resolution, transmitted light and fluorescence-based movies established the ability to observe early events of phagocytosis in living cells. To demonstrate the broad applicability of this method to immunological studies, anti-CD3 polymeric beads were also trapped and manipulated to form synapses with T cells in vivo, and time-lapse imaging of synapse formation was also obtained. By providing a method to exert fine control of live pathogens with respect to immune cells, cellular interactions can be captured by fluorescence microscopy with minimal perturbation to cells and can yield powerful insight into early responses of innate and adaptive immunity.

Albert Elms: light music composer
Albert Elms was a pioneering contributor of incidental music to television and films in the 1950s and 1960s and a composer of military music.
He was born in Newington, Kent, in 1920 and, showing early musical promise, he joined the Royal Marines Band Service in Deal in 1934. He first went to sea in November 1937 and returned home in January 1939, having taken part in the evacuation of refugees from Valencia during the Spanish Civil War.
He spent the Second World War in light cruisers, including Arethusa, Ajax and Orion. While in Arethusa as part of the Royal Marines party serving the cruiser's B-turret, he took part in the Norway evacuations in April 1940. In June that year he was also involved in the bombardment of Vichy French ships in Mers-el-Kebir, Algeria, ordered by Churchill to prevent their falling into German hands.
He then served on escort detail on Malta convoys throughout 1941. He was serving on the Orion when the Arethusa was torpedoed by aircraft in November 1942 and the entire Marine complement of B-turret perished.
His service career ended in 1949 and he found employment in Tin Pan Alley in Soho with Francis, Day and Hunter, where composition and arrangement of popular songs were the order of the day.
Extra earning opportunities arose when members of the public would arrive unannounced in Denmark Street singing a song or whistling a tune they had created which they wished to have scored for posterity. Sitting at the piano, Elms would coax the melody out of the client and write down the score for a fee of 15 shillings.
He then went freelance and composed incidental music for The Adventures of Robin Hood starring Richard Greene, The Adventures of Sir Lancelot starring Roger Moore, The Buccaneers and William Tell. In the 1960s film work included Bluebeard's Ten Honeymoons (1960) starring George Sanders, The Breaking Point and Treasure in Malta.
For the BBC he wrote music for the series Thorndike. He scored the incidental music for The Champions and the hit series Man in a Suitcase as well as for 14 episodes of The Prisoner, starring Patrick McGoohan.
In the 1970s Elms worked on the film version of the TV show Love Thy Neighbour and was musical director on The Benny Hill Show. But it was a return to writing military band music that occupied him for the rest of the decade. Wembley Way had been commissioned for the 100th FA Cup Final at Wembley in 1972, and Blaze of Light and On Parade were to follow. However, it was a meeting with the principal director of the Royal Marines School of Music, who, weary of the 1812 Overture, requested "something about Trafalgar" and the march Battle of Trafalgar received its premiere at the 1974 Royal Tournament and at the Mountbatten Festival of Music in 1975. It became a favourite of the Royal Marines Band Service and was also performed at St Paul's Cathedral as an orchestral work with the Bach Choir conducted by Sir Charles Groves in 1981, and later at the Albert Hall at the bicentenary of Trafalgar in 2005.
Elms's wife, Jo, predeceased him and he is survived by three sons.
Albert Elms, light music composer, was born on February 28, 1920. He died on October 14, 2009, aged 89

Born: 2/28/1920, Newington, Kent, England, U.K.

SOUTH PORTLAND — Don't think, just do.
That simple formula worked for South Portland goalkeeper Henry Curran, who blocked two penalty kicks. And it worked for Ben Michaud, who scored the goal that sent South Portland past Kennebunk 4-2 on PKs for a 2-1 victory Saturday in a Western Class A boys' soccer prelim at Martin Memorial Field.
The eighth-seeded Red Riots (9-5-1) move on to a quarterfinal at top-seed Scarborough (13-1) on Wednesday. The ninth-seeded Rams finish the season at 6-6-3.
"Just put it in the back of the net. Don't think about it, just go up and rip it," said South Portland Coach Brian Hoy, recalling his advice to players at the end of two 15-minute overtime sessions. "We want to play as long as we can but we have a tough opponent on Tuesday. We'll give them everything we've got."
So after 110 minutes of soccer, what does a keeper think about as a shooter lines up on the penalty spot?
"Just a blank mind, you're not thinking about anything," Curran said. "Just focus, do what I can to save it. A couple of them, I watched their plant foot, and a couple looked where they were going to shoot and I chose to dive there. That's about it."
Both regulation goals came during a back-and-forth first half.
Kennebunk struck first when Robby Burns headed Pip Butterfield's long throw-in past Curran (11 saves) about eight minutes into the game.
South Portland countered about 14 minutes later, when Andrew Whipple struck the ball from about 15 yards out, driving it past keeper Ben Wilson (nine saves).
"The ball landed in front of my feet and I didn't think about it, I just kicked it," Whipple said. "We had some momentum early on, and I felt it was going to be a high-scoring game but I guess I was a wrong."
Kennebunk controlled the second half, with midfielders Dany Reyes Caballero, Ryan Keefe and Patrick Gassman keeping the ball from the big-man, little-man forward combination of Robert Graff and Amhed Suja.
The game was hotly contested from the start, with South Portland drawing two yellow cards to Kennebunk's one. The Rams held an edge in corner kicks (3-2) and free kicks (16-12). The biggest difference came in the second half, when the Rams accumulated 11 of their 25 shots. The Riots managed five of their 19 in the second half.
Heading into OT, Rans Coach Nate Bean said, "We're just thinking, âPut one in the back of the net so we can get out of here and move on to Scarborough.' It didn't work out that way."
Instead, it's South Portland moving on to Scarborough.

Everyone in the NBA must think the Golden State Warriors are lucky to have signed Kevin Durant, and rightfully so. He was voted as the league MVP in 2014, he's a seven-time NBA All-Star, and a five-time All-NBA First team.
Not only is Kevin Durant Warriors' most decorated player, but also on the basketball court, where it really matters, he is practically impossible to guard when he shoots from long range. And even if they do he'd punish any defender by going to the basket, and his passing skills are stellar.
But if there's one thing that Durant lacks on his flashy resume, it's his defensive skillset.
ALSO READ: Rudy Gay leaving DeMarcus Cousins to team up with Russell Westbrook? Thunder eyeing temporary replacement for Kevin Durant
NBA rumors circulate that defense could be Kevin Durant Warriors weakness. Even Steve Kerr made it clear that defense is something that he's practically concerned about.
It may not be as bad as NBA rumors have impressed on us. It's just that he's never been named to an NBA All-Defensive team, first team or second, as pointed out in a report by CSN.
It means this is something he can certainly improve on, and coach Steve Kerr said, "That's hard to do, but for sure he has the potential."
"He's got the length and the quickness and the intelligence. He's been playing in the league a long time. He's seen every action, every concept. So feels stuff before it happens."
ALSO READ: Stephen Curry, Draymond Green disappointed to see Kevin Durant choking, lacks aggressiveness
Defense may not directly be a Kevin Durant Warriors liability, but his entry into the team definitely weakened their second unit, and this is one thing LeBron James could take advantage of in the highly anticipated Cavaliers vs Warriors rematch.
LeBron James is an offensive machine, plus he has the size, speed, and skills to get the Warriors first team in foul trouble.
Analysts doubt Golden State has enough firepower to sustain their onslaught if and when the Cavaliers vs Warriors end up in a finals rematch.
On his defensive development, Kevin Durant said, "Coach Adams is on me every second of the day defensively, wanting to see me helping with rebounding, using my length on the defensive end."
On Durant's untapped potential on being a defensive strategist, Ron Adams, the Warriors' defensive coordinator gives a positive outlook saying, "I like his progress right now. He's been steady. He's focused."
Whether the Cavaliers vs Warriors ever find themselves competing again in the Finals, NBA rumors speculate that the likelihood looks good. It also debunks theories that Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant aren't seeing eye to eye.
"I really don't like him," Stephen Curry said jokingly in a report by NBA.
"I'm just messing with you." He even defended his teammate against boos from the crowd and negativity he received when he debuted as a Warrior in the preseason.
"It's just funny," Curry said. "I highly doubt anybody in this arena was affected by (Durant's free-agent decision). It's just funny kind of buying into a narrative that doesn't really make sense.

"We book artists with diverse musical styles. Our emphasis is the art of the song," said Russell Carter, 30A Songwriters Festival chair.
SANTA ROSA BEACH, Fla. (PRWEB) November 14, 2012
The 30A Songwriters Festival will heat up Florida's Scenic Highway 30A, January 18-20, 2013, where writers who perform their own music and performers who write their own songs meet for a weekend of soulful melodies, powerful vocals and compelling lyrics throughout the northwest Florida beach neighborhoods of South Walton.
The festival will feature more than 125 songwriters and 200 musical performances. Confirmed artists include Lucinda Williams, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Jeffrey Steele, Nanci Griffith, Suzanne Vega, Fastball, Tift Merritt, Allison Moorer, Charlie Mars, Eliza Gilkyson, Freedy Johnston, Randall Bramblett, The Shadowboxers, Joe Leathers, Gretchen Peters, Brigitte DeMeyer and Tommy Womack among many others.
Venues range from unique listening rooms to spacious outdoor amphitheaters. Each location is distinguished by its own individual vibe, ambiance, and musically-inspired stage artwork. Venues are nestled amid the brilliant white sand beaches, turquoise waters and stunning architecture of Highway 30A. The Festival is produced by the Cultural Arts Alliance of Walton County and is presented by Visit South Walton.
"The 30A Songwriters Festival has quickly gained a reputation among musicians as a forum for true songwriters to perform their self-penned songs as well as established performers to showcase their original compositions," said Russell Carter, 30A Songwriters Festival chair and producer and owner of Russell Carter Artist Management. "We book artists with diverse musical styles. Our emphasis is the art of the song."
As in years past, performance venues are built along Highway 30A from Santa Rosa Beach's Vue, Gulf Place Amphitheater and Fire on the west end to Rosemary Beach's Amavida, Town Hall and Summer Kitchen on the east end. WaterColor Inn & Resort will serve once again as the Festival headquarters.
Representing diverse styles, ranging from folk and country to rock and blues, the 2013 line-up features nationally-acclaimed songwriters and musicians including Lucinda Williams, Nanci Griffith, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Jeffrey Steele, Suzanne Vega and Fastball.
"We are honored to feature talented artists from around the country who are generously supporting the CAA and our mission to grow the arts in Walton County and make it a destination for cultural and artistic excellence," said Jennifer Steele, festival producer and executive director of the Cultural Arts Alliance of Walton County.

Lighting upgrade increases yummy factor at Cupcakes of Westdale Village
The only thing better than a happy customer is a repeat customer, and no one knows this better than small business owners Anne Campagna and Marilyn Gouchie.
To entice their customers to come back again and again to sample the gourmet cupcakes on offer at Cupcakes of Westdale Village in Hamilton, the co-owners have come to rely on a secret ingredient: energy-efficient lights.
Campagna learned about the Save on Energy Small Business Lighting program from a mailer she received at the shop, and was quick to call an energy advisor at Horizon Utilities to learn more. Offered through local hydro companies, the Small Business Lighting program coordinates energy-efficient lighting retrofits for small business owners.
"Part of our interest in the program was to see if we could find some efficiencies and reduce our operating costs, but another big plus for us was the opportunity to improve the lighting in the shop and make our products really pop for our customers," said Campagna.
With the help of a local electrical contractor, the shop was outfitted with new lights and new fixtures with no disruption for customers.
According to Campagna, the new lighting has delivered exactly what was promised. Not only is her business saving money on electricity, it's also improved the in-store experience for customers. "We noticed how bright and cheerful this place looks and our cupcakes look amazing."
With the first energy retrofit behind her, Campagna and her business partner say they are sweet on other programs that will help them continue to improve their business's overall efficiency.
This comes as welcome news for Horizon Utilities. "We're finding that for many business owners, once they do one retrofit and see the difference it can make in areas such as operating costs, customer experience, or employee engagement, the more interested they are in speaking with us about other Save on Energy programs," said Brian Smith, chief conservation officer at Horizon Utilities. "We're always looking for ways to support our customers in their goal of becoming more energy efficient. We want to make it as easy as possible to do business with us."

everything looks superb, looking forward to playing :)
Blaze is a retro/minimalistic styled sci-fi first person flight/shooter action game. The game can be played almost single handedly with just mouse. It's about shooting a lot of alien things (in semi-randomized missions?). The alien things are trying capture all your base, and have already captured at least half of it. You have to defend the base and capture the alien controlled areas back. Or something like that...
everything looks superb, looking forward to playing :)
Looks bloody fun!
Lights so beautiful. Colors so bold. Transformers with Vice City lighting.

Roundup: Two bowl games down
The Trojans finished their season off right, dominating the Bulldogs Saturday and pulling the switch on Fresno State 45-20. For all the grief USC gets, the program has won 10 games in two of the last three years (only Stanford and Oregon can also say that in the Pac). It was a record-setting performance for Cody Kessler, and now it looks like Clay Helton will stay at USC as offensive coordinator. Also, Steve Sarkisian hopes to add Ed Orgeron to his staff at USC.
Well this one had to be tough to swallow for Coug Nation. The Cougars were dominating the New Mexico Bowl, and then WSU blew an eight-point lead to Colorado State with two minutes left and 15-point lead with about six minutes remaining in head-scratching fashion. As it turned out, time wasn't on the Cougars' side Saturday afternoon. Now, the Cougars are trying to shake off the bowl loss.
Stanford women's hoops got a huge win against Tennessee on Saturday, in large thanks to the first 30-20 game of Chiney Ogwumike's career (32 points, 20 boards). As such, Ogwumike was espnW's National Player of the Week.
The Hawai'i Bowl is tomorrow, and Oregon State has a rich history of recruiting from the Hawaiian Islands, and Beavers great Skippa Diaz offers a link to OSU's history with Hawaiian recruits.
Still unbeaten are the Oregon Ducks, as Jason Calliste scored 31 to lead Oregon past BYU in OT. Ducks were down six in the final two minutes as well. Nice win.
Despite losing to Oklahoma State, the Buffs feel they're one of the nation's best. I tell ya, this team never lacks confidence, especially Spencer Dinwiddie.
An undermanned Cal feel to Creighton yesterday 68-54, undermanned because Ricky Kreklow is sidelined for 4-6 weeks with a hand injury and also because Jabari Bird left the Creighton game in the first half with a sprained right ankle.
Arizona has been undertaking facilities upgrades lately, and a small number of donors makes for a big-time win for Arizona, writes Greg Hansen.
Hey, Arizona State women's basketball broke into the AP top 25, currently in a tie for 25th with Oklahoma, after a win over Miami (FL) improved its record to 10-1.
To stay or to go? Always a tough question for players pondering entering the NFL Draft early, and UCLA's Brett Hundley knows staying in school could help or hurt.
Character win for the Utah women's basketball team, beating Samford 69-49 without Michelle Plouffe in the lineup (death in the family). As such, some young Utes stepped up with their star player out. Emily Potter and Malia Nawahine both scored 18 points to pace Anthony Levrets' side.
And the Huskies have arrived in San Francisco for Fight Hunger Bowl week.

Second Offense Drunk or Drugged Driving Attorney
The penalties for a second offense are much more serious than for a first. As stated above, a violation is considered a second offense if it has occurred with seven years of your first DUI / OWI / DWI conviction. Even out-of-state convictions may be considered during sentencing. Jail time is much more likely and so is a license revocation.
Possible penalties include:
- Up to $1,000 fine, and one or more of the following
- 5 days to 1 year in jail
- 30 to 90 days of community service
- Driver's license revocation and denial for a minimum of 1 year if first conviction occurred less than seven years prior.
- License plate confiscation.
- Vehicle immobilization for 90 to 180 days, unless the vehicle is forfeited.
- Vehicle forfeiture (Possibly).
- 6 points added to the offender's driving record.
- Driver Responsibility Fee of $1,000 for 2 consecutive years.
Generally, the more prior offenses and if they are closer in time, the higher the penalties. The same goes for the blood alcohol level. The higher the level, the higher the penalties, with a 0.17 % BAC or higher now considered 'Superdrunk'.
A license revocation is mandatory if the second offense conviction date is less than seven years after the first-offense conviction date. You will never find a prosecutor willing to reduce a drunk driving to a non-driving related offense unless a good Michigan drunk driving lawyer is able to show them they are unlikely to win the case at trial.
To properly defend any second-offense misdemeanor DUI drunk or drugged driving (OWPD) case the alcohol-testing must be carefully and exhaustively scrutinized by the expert DUI defense lawyer. For breath tests, the Datamaster breath test machine that was utilized must be thoroughly investigated. All calibration and simulation records must be carefully examined. The required 120 day Class IV operator maintenance reports must be requested and examined. The maintenance and service history records must be obtained from the manufacturer and examined. The breath test operator's Datamaster training history must be requested and documented. A printout of the instrument's calibration history must be ordered and reviewed. A full profile of the Datamaster's operational history must be understood. Further, it must be determined if the accused had any medical diagnosis issues that could affect or invalidate the breath test. These diseases include type one and type two diabetes and gastro esophageal reflux disorder (GERD).
A blood alcohol test performed by the Michigan State Police Forensic Science Division must also be fully investigated. Most attorneys will take the summary test results report as fact because they do not know what records must be obtained and even how to evaluate them. There are about 1000 pages of records that exist for each test and they all must be reviewed to establish the testing accuracy and reliability. These records are obtained and professionally reviewed by an experienced attorney for every blood alcohol test case. To accept the one page summary blood test toxicology test results as fact is done all the time by inexperienced DUI attorneys. They do have the desire or inclination to take the time necessary to educate themselves on how to properly evaluate and challenge blood alcohol tests. Further, the blood-draw procedures and protocols must also be specifically questioned and evaluated. The chain of custody of the blood sample must also be investigated. There are several avenues of question and attack in blood alcohol testing cases for an experienced and knowledgeable DUI attorney like Michigan drunk driving lawyer Barton Morris.
Practically, a drunk driving conviction will stay on a person's record for the rest of their life. There is absolutely no possibility of expungement or setting aside the conviction under any circumstances or any expiration of time. For some, this consequence is unacceptable. This fact alone can have serious consequences for someone concerning both current and future employment. Further, there is no prosecutor or city attorney automatically willing to offer a plea bargain to any offense that is not driving and alcohol-related. The truth is, most criminal defense attorneys will take your case expecting to plea it to a lesser DUI charge. That is all they know how to do. Many lawyers may call themselves specialists but they specialize in guilty pleas. If you or a loved one have been charged with drunk driving and you don't want a drunk driving conviction on your record for the rest of your life you must hire a drunk driving specialist who will effectively fight the case and earn a desired result. The Law Office of Barton Morris has the experience and DUI education necessary to get great results. You have to fight for great results – filing motions, challenging evidence, utilizing experts and winning jury trials. That is how the Law Office of Barton Morris litigates cases and that is how great results are obtain ed. This can include up to dismissal of all charges. There is no other way. Great results must be earned – they do not come because someone "knows the judge" or is "friends with the prosecutor". If you hear these often used phrases, keep looking for an attorney until you find one who gets results with hard work and specialized training like Attorney Barton Morris. EVERY DUI CASE CAN BE WON – EFFECTIVE DEFENSES EXIST IN EVERY CASE ONLY IF YOU HAVE THE RIGHT LAWYER. ALL PEOPLE WHO PLEA GUILTY TO DUI WILL BE GUILTY OF DUI – ONLY DEFENDANTS WHO FIGHT THEIR CASE CAN WIN.
If you have been charged with a OWI / DWI / OUI drunk driving case in the Oakland, Wayne or Macomb County communities of Royal Oak, Bloomfield Hills, Detroit, Warren, Troy, Novi, Rochester Hills, Farmington, Southfield, any surrounding area, or anywhere in the State of Michigan and want the best defense, call Michigan Criminal Attorney Barton Morris at (248) 541-2600.

Skip to comments.ANWR drilling no solution to gasoline costs, Kerry says
Posted on 03/31/2004 11:41:20 AM PST by KQQLEdited on 07/07/2004 4:49:14 PM PDT by Jim Robinson. [history]
WASHINGTON -- While blaming President Bush for the high price of gasoline, his Democratic challenger, Sen. John Kerry, on Tuesday reiterated his opposition to drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, saying it is no solution.
"We deserve an administration that doesn't fake it to the American people and pretend that somehow by drilling in the Alaska wildlife refuge we can deal with the problems of America," Kerry, D-Mass., told university students in San Diego. "We can't provide the supply of oil America needs from the Alaska wildlife refuge or from any other source in the United States, because we only have 3 percent of the world's oil reserves."
(Excerpt) Read more at adn.com ...
Of course not, never said they were. But, I figure evey bit we can get without "their" assistance is well worth it.
Really, the only long term solution to our dependency on foreign sources of energy is to develop non-fossil fuel sources.
Go ahead, be my guest. Meanwhile my car takes gas. Gas comes from oil. Our nation contains much land under which is oil, that we're not getting. Can you explain why not?
We *have* to pull away from this dependency on nations that don't like us
Right. That's what we're trying to do. They're our primary supplier, yet we have supplies in our own backyard, which we're not getting for some reason. Yet so I suggest we actually *get* that stuff from our backyard (so we don't have to get it from their monopoly) and people like you say "no, that's not gonna work". ????
while ANWR would help, it's not a solution in itself by any means.
Who's claiming it's a "solution by itself"? Call it a step in the right direction. I hope you're not arguing we shouldn't take that step because it's not a "solution by itself".
We'll have a big problem, but developing countries such as China will need more and more and more, and it won't be there. China will be in a big hurt, even worse than us.

Mattmann, Christian Grobmeier, Davanum Srinivas, Dave Johnson, Doug Cutting, Emmanuel Lecharny, Jim Jagielski, Kevan Miller, Luciano Resende, Mark Struberg, Michael McCandless, Ralph Goers, Tim Williams, and Upayavira
The 8 non-IMPC members who are ASF members: Ate Douma, Brett Porter, Leif Hedstrom, Marcel Offermans, Niklas Gustavsson, Richard Hall, Santiago Gala, and Vincent Siveton
The 68 non-binding votes: a2c, Adirondack, Alain Levesque, Albonobo, Alex North, Andreas Kuckartz, Andrian Kurniady, Anthony Watkins, Bart Thate, benediktus dwi hari prasetyo, Bertine van Hövell, Charles Goddard, Chris Harvey, Christopher Brind, Dan Peterson, Dave Woollard, David Wang, David Westbrook, Davide Carnovale, Edward J.

The secret of change is not trying not to do something, but simply to practice doing something else until it becomes a new habit. The old habit will fall away from non-use. Sometimes the old habit will inevitably arise as we have practised it so often, so be kind, keep your focus on the new habit. If we keep putting our attention on the thing we don't want to do we keep giving it energy and keep it before us.
We are creatures of habit which we create and can change - not through rigid 'rights' or 'wrongs' but by allowing our humanness and gentleness to our past habits that were appropriate at the time. Remember your body is always changing moment to moment and so change is a natural part of being alive.

Open Thread: Friends and Family and Everyone Else
Here's a place to talk about the relationships in your life whenever you want.
I can't stand "Family Guy." I can't STAND it.
My husband, on the other hand, loves it.
It's an unspoken understanding that when he gets the urge to watch Peter Griffin and that English baby make boob jokes, it's time to pick our separate corners. One of us in the bedroom, the least sweaty room in the house, and one of us in the living room, the sweatiest room in the house, but it's got the flat screen. It's a fair trade.
I honestly love this arrangement. When it comes to "my stories," I'm of the mind that to each their own, and if in the moment I need the comfort of the Bluths (MAY 26TH! MAY 26TH! MAY 26th!) or "Oddities," and my husband needs to watch something by Seth MacFarlane, I'm A-OK with it.
Apparently this is really normal. Couples spend time apart watching their shows, "Just 15% of cohabiting couples watch same TV shows all the time." Uh…duh.
I honestly think this is what a big part of what stops my husband and I from killing each other. We've been together for like, a million years, and if each of us doesn't get a little bit of alone time, we end up snarling at each other over whose turn it is to clean up the cat's vomit.
When I realize we're reaching that point where we're becoming more like college roommates than married partners, I'm usually the one who will grab my laptop and sequester myself in the bedroom for an hour or two or five. We lick our wounds and watch our stories and when we come together again, we'll actually playfully bicker over who GETS to clean up the cat vomit.
Our lives, as you can see, are thrilling.
Things weren't always like this. We weren't always this, uh, healthy. When we first started living together, back in the day when streaming TV shows was just too hard for me, and YouTube was just pandas and people doing weird shit in their dorm rooms, I used to wait to watch my shows.
You see, I did that thing that so many people do when they get into a relationship where they subjugate their comforts to that of their partner. At first I did this happily. "I'm just happy to be sitting here canoodling with my boyfriend on our couch. Oooh, I really feel like unwinding by watching the first three seasons of "Weeds" (the good seasons), but my boyfriend wants to watch this Jean Claude Van Damme movie. I'll just watch my stuff later."
Needless to say, that shit didn't last long.
There was no balance, and after a month or so of waiting for my boyfriend to go to sleep so I could indulge myself in my TV stories and my books, I snapped and just demanded to watch something that didn't involve explosions or animated yellow people. That didn't quite work either, as demanding anything of anybody and forcing them to play by your rules leads to general pissed-offedness as well.
So after lots of mature discussion and remote-throwing, we realized that we LIVED together and went to SCHOOL together and WORKED for the same company. We didn't HAVE to spend every moment of our free time together and that was just fine. In fact it was more than fine, it was awesome.
We'd hang together when we actually wanted to SPEND TIME with each other, not just occupy the same space. We'd make dinner or play Monopoly, or watch a terrible horror movie together, and when our interests diverged, we'd go our separate ways. 100 years, five computers, two TVs, two states, and one marriage later, we're still going strong.
At this point I feel the need to defend us and swear that we're not a pair of television obsessed drones. But what can I say? We kind of are. My husband's a PhD student, and when I'm not schlepping dog food I'm using my brain to think of words to write. We read books, often several at a time, our floors sag under the weight of our bookshelves. However, at the end of an exhausting day television is escapism, the perfect way to turn our brains off.
As I type the last of this post, I am contentedly curled up in the bedroom with my laptop, ready to hit play on "Six Feet Under" as soon as I am finished. My husband is in the living room flipping between "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" and "Family Guy." Feel free to judge him right now.
It seems that occasionally, for my husband and I, the best kind of escapism is from each other.

Working With The Animal Totems
I was browsing the comments on a totem meditation video when I saw some one who said she/he could read who out totem was, I decided to message her/him to see if she/he could.
This is the reply
Its an African elephant, female, named Zengana. She said you need to move forward in life, face new challenges, set new goals and dont look back. She said be careful what you listen to from others about things, and follow your own heart and intuition. When it rains go outside and let it shower you- as rain is a natural form of energy for you. Hope this helps. xxx
Is this true? Can she/he really read my totem? Could elephant be another totem?Help please!

Great Cycle Challenge started in 2015, and after just 2 years, the event has grown to become one of the biggest cycling events in the United States.
People of all ages, abilities and from every state across the country set themselves a personal riding goal and challenge themselves to pedal throughout June to fight kids' cancer.
In 2 years, our community of 39,284 riders from all 50 states have ridden a total of 3,397,199 miles, and together we've raised $4,717,515 in support of research to develop better treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.
Why? Because over 15,700 American children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and sadly, 38 children die every week.
We're riding to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve, and we believe that any one individual can make their personal impact to fight cancer and save little lives.
So we're calling on all Americans to get on their bikes this June and join our movement to kick cancer's butt!
Great Cycle Challenge USA is a national Children's Cancer Research Fund (CCRF) fundraising initiative held throughout June.
Our vision is a world without cancer where all kids are living life, not fighting for it.

KAMPALA, Uganda – A Ugandan opposition politician vying for the presidency says the government is trying stifle his campaign after police raided his offices and arrested his staff.
Former Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi, the main rival of long-serving President Yoweri Museveni in the February elections, said Monday that 20 of his staff have been arrested.
Police spokesman Fred Enanga said arrests are related to a violent clash between Mbabazi and Museveni supporters two weeks ago. Mbabazi said his supporters were merely defending themselves. Museveni, who has been in power for 30 years and is seeking re-election, warned Sunday that police would arrest those who allegedly beat his supporters.
Amnesty International said in a report this month that the Ugandan government is reducing democratic space ahead of February polls.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM), the biggest U.S. bank, said first-quarter profit fell 19 percent on lower revenue from fixed-income trading and mortgages, themes that may be repeated across Wall Street next week. The shares declined 2.9 percent.
Net income dropped to $5.27 billion, or $1.28 a share, from $6.53 billion, or $1.59, a year earlier, according to a statement today from New York-based JPMorgan. Ten analysts surveyed by Bloomberg estimated $1.46 a share on average.
JPMorgan, the first of the top U.S. banks to post results for the period, said profit fell in every major division, amid a 42 percent drop in mortgage revenue and a 21 percent slide in fixed-income trading. Chief Executive Officer Jamie Dimon, 58, warned investors in February that trading had fallen 15 percent for the first two months of 2014, a decline analysts including David Konrad of Macquarie Group Ltd. blamed on a reduction in the Federal Reserves bond purchases.
Its been a tough quarter for the industry, said Pri de Silva, senior banking analyst at CreditSights Inc. in New York. Im not overly worried about JPMorgan unless I see something else going on apart from what we already know is lower fixed-income trading and mortgage results.
JPMorgan fell to $55.75 in New York trading at 7:41 a.m. from $57.40 yesterday.
Konrad said in an April 4 research note that banks will have a challenging quarter as higher interest rates reduce loan refinancings.
Total revenue dropped 7.7 percent to $23.9 billion, as noninterest expenses declined 5.1 percent to $14.6 billion.
JPMorgans investment-banking head, Daniel Pinto, said this week he was overhauling the divisions reporting lines after his former co-head, Mike Cavanagh, left to join Carlyle Group LP. Pinto named Carlos Hernandez co-head of global banking with Jeff Urwin, John Horner head of investor services and Joyce Chang global head of research.
Earnings at Pintos corporate and investment bank dropped 24 percent to $1.98 billion, as revenue declined 15 percent from a year earlier to $8.61 billion. Fixed-income trading revenue fell to $3.8 billion on weaker performance across most products and lower levels of client activity, the bank said.
The 21 percent drop in fixed-income trading revenue surpassed estimates of a 15 percent decline from Moshe Orenbuch, an analyst at Credit Suisse Group AG, and 17 percent from Wells Fargo & Co.s Matt Burnell.
Net income from consumer and community banking, run by Gordon Smith, fell 25 percent to $1.94 billion as provisions for credit losses surged 49 percent to $816 million. Revenue was $10.5 billion, down 10 percent from a year earlier.
Mortgage revenue dropped to $1.57 billion in the quarter, from $2.72 billion a year earlier. Home-loan originations were $17 billion, down 68 percent from the prior year as higher interest rates curtailed refinancings.
JPMorgan said profit in asset management, run by Mary Erdoes, declined 9 percent to $441 million, as costs rose 11 percent to $2.1 billion on headcount-related expenses. Assets under management climbed 11 percent to $1.6 trillion amid greater inflows and rising equity markets. Commercial banking, a division run by Doug Petno, posted a 3 percent profit decline to $578 million.
Another top executive, Blythe Masters, plans to depart. Masters, 45, will resign after she helps the bank complete the $3.5 billion sale of a commodities unit to Mercuria Energy Group Ltd., the company said last week. Over 27 years she rose from being a JPMorgan intern to running several credit desks and finally heading the commodities business.
The departures followed a trying year for Dimon, who agreed to more than $20 billion in legal settlements tied to lapses including mortgage-bond sales and trading losses in 2013. Resolving the disputes was the most painful, difficult and nerve-racking experience that I have ever dealt with professionally, Dimon said this week in his annual letter to investors.
JPMorgan could eventually earn $27 billion a year, or about $6.8 billion a quarter, as legal costs subside and higher interest rates boost margins, the bank said during its Feb. 25 investor meeting. The company said the quarterly dividend will rise to 40 cents a share from 38 cents, and it authorized a $6.5 billion stock buyback after the Fed approved the lenders capital plan.
Citigroup Inc. reports earnings on Monday, followed by Bank of America Corp. April 16. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Morgan Stanley announce results on April 17.

Patsy Palmer is a renowned face of the showbiz world. The woman is famed for being Biana Butcher in EastEnders. She is widely known for dolling up the cheap looking tracksuits but this time around this babe went miles ahead to look super stunningly gorgeous and heatingly sexy, as she wears colorful bikini in Greece where she celebrates her 40th birthday with none other than her husband of 12 years, Richard Merkell.
Patsy, the mother of four, has landed up in the best of her shape ever and she flaunted the milky-sexy svelte body in a two-piece colorful bikini. She soaked under the sun with hubby dear. Both enjoyed the vacation supremely joking and laughing. The cleavage from the bikini was looking stunning. Both also reserved a table where they ate the lunch and at the restaurant the two locked the lips as well.
To make the round of the area, they grabbed a vespa and they had fun visiting the place.

Find out what Forever means to inspirational artists, designers, performers and creatives from all around the world whom we have had the pleasure in collaborating with.
Every love story tells a different tale and this is Devyn & Nathan's.
"Forever is a source of power. It guides me, motivates me and inspires me to be passionate about music and life."
"Forever to me is something that is ever changing. It goes up. It goes down. It's good. It's bad, but everything, at the end of the day, is a learning experience."
Every love story tells a different tale and this is Anusha & David's.
"Forever to me is something timeless and lasting."
"The idea of Forever is a sentiment, a story, a product that continues to be alive long after we're gone."
"It took forever for the diamond to form in the first place, and hopefully the union it symbolises will be forever as well. This is where 'A Diamond Is Forever' came from, and it evokes a kind of eternal, on-going symbol for most people."
"In my world, I believe in the creative power of humans. Human spiritual civilization is eternal. I also believe in the power of art, and art is eternal."
Every love story tells a different tale and this is Kerry and Emce's
"Forever is like the symbol of infinity, which keeps going and never ends."
"Life cannot last forever, but love can. There exists no perfection in this world, but we can aim for perfection as much as possible. To see this world through your kindness, to embrace people with your warm heart, this is how we can make our love last forever."
"Forever love is not about something extraordinary or remarkable. It lies in the minute details of everyday life. I feel sweet with just a simple eye contact or a smile."
"When I think of Forever, I think of responsibility and I think of integrity because these are the only two values with which you can create something that is going to be timeless."
"Forever to me means something bigger than the individual. Forever is what we are determined to save, what we are determined to value. It's a spirit of thinking into the future."
"The first time I stepped onto the stage of Hong Kong Coliseum, it was a defining forever moment. To have my own solo concert there was inspirational. It taught me if you keep the dream alive, it could well become a reality."
"What does Forever mean to me? Indelible. Memories of happiness and joy deserve to last forever. It can be a moment, or a lifetime of happiness."
"Forever for me means the endless discovery of love, beauty, fashion, style and art. I wish I could draw forever."
"The oldest known terrestrial diamonds are thought to be about 3.3 billion years old. Our own species Homo sapiens have only been around for 200,000 years – that's a vanishingly small percentage of the lifetime of the diamond – so in comparison to humans, diamonds really are forever."
"Forever means to me something that lasts beyond our lifetime, something that will be here for years or centuries to come, even long after you're gone… A moment or a gift, that can be passed on for generations"
"To me, Forever means genuine timelessness, something that only exists in nature."
