Excuse my ignorance but what the heck does that mean?
It was used as a battle cry during a Grecian war. It means, "From my cold dead hands." Basically, the battle cry of the NRA.
From Wiki:
The Greek phrase Molōn labe! (Μολὼν λάβε; approximate Classical Greek pronunciation [molɔ̀ːn labé], Modern Greek [moˈlon laˈve]), meaning "Come and take them!", is a classical expression of defiance reported by Plutarch in response to the Persian Army's demand that the Spartans surrender their weapons. It corresponds roughly to the modern equivalent English phrase "over my dead body", "bring it on" or, most closely, "come and get it". It is an exemplary use of a laconic phrase.

Watch the movie "300"
When Lionydas and his 299 are in the hot gates, and he makes an announcement to the oncoming Persians, and your arm hair stands up while you get goose bumps - THAT is what it means...
It's the ULTIMATE act of "Up Yours & Eff You" Definance....
Modern usage
Molon labe has been repeated by many later generals and politicians in order to express an army's or nation's determination to not surrender. The motto ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ is on the emblem of the Greek First Army Corps,[3] and is also the motto of United States Special Operations Command Central (SOCCENT).
Basically, it is Greek for "Bite Me!", or any other brief but pointed insult.
Or, as they would say in Brooklyn, "Assault weapon? Yeah, I gotcher assault weapon right heah!"
cant say it better! watch 300 and you will learn grass hopper
Molon labe
(mo-lone lah-veh)
Two little words. With these two words, two concepts were verbalized that have lived for nearly two and a half Millennia. They signify and characterize both the heart of the Warrior, and the indomitable spirit of mankind. From the ancient Greek, they are the reply of the Spartan General-King Leonidas to Xerxes, the Persian Emperor who came with 600,000 of the fiercest fighting troops in the world to conquer and invade little Greece, then the center and birthplace of civilization as we know it. When Xerxes offered to spare the lives of Leonidas, his 300 personal bodyguards and a handful of Thebans and others who volunteered to defend their country, if they would lay down their arms, Leonidas shouted these two words back.
Molon Labe! (mo-lone lah-veh)
They mean, "Come and get them!" They live on today as the most notable quote in military history. And so began the classic example of courage and valor in its dismissal of overwhelming superiority of numbers, wherein the heart and spirit of brave men overcame insuperable odds. Today, there lies a plaque dedicated to these heroes all at the site. It reads: "Go tell the Spartans, travelers passing by, that here, obedient to their laws we lie."
We have adopted this defiant utterance as a battle cry in our war against oppression because it says so clearly and simply towards those who would take our arms.
It signifies our determination to not strike the first blow, but also to not stand mute and allow our loved ones, and all that we believe in and stand for, to be trampled by men who would deprive us of our God-given – or natural, if you will – rights to suit their own ends.
Molon labe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I don't see "cold dead hands" anywhere in here . . .
Molon labe refers to an ancient Greek expression for "Come and take them!", in reference to unilateral disarmament. Molôn Labé! was the reply of Sparta's King Leonidas to the Persian demand for surrender at the Battle of Thermopylae. The phrase is becoming a modern-day Second Amendment cry of resolve never to disarm in the face of tyranny.
The Greek phrase Molōn labe! (Μολὼν λάβε; approximate Classical Greek pronunciation [molɔ̀ːn labé], Modern Greek [moˈlon laˈve]), meaning "Come and take them!", is a classical expression of defiance reported by Plutarch in response to the Persian Army's demand that the Spartans surrender their weapons. It corresponds roughly to the modern equivalent English phrase "over my dead body", "bring it on" or, most closely, "come and get it". It is an exemplary use of a laconic phrase.
The first word, μολών, is the aorist active participle (masculine, nominative, singular) of the Greek verb βλώσκω "blōskō," meaning "having come."[1] Λάβε is the aorist active imperative (second person singular) of the verb λαμβάνω "lambanō," translated "take [them]."
The two words function together in a grammatical structure not present in English called the circumstantial participle.[2] Where English would put two main verbs in two independent clauses joined by a conjunction: "come and take", a strategy sometimes called paratactic, ancient Greek, which is far richer in participles, subordinates one to the other, a strategy called hypotactic: "having come, take." The first action is turned into an adjective. In this structure, the participle gives some circumstance attendant on the main verb: the coming.
In regard to aspect, the aorist participle is used to signify completed action, called the perfective aspect. Moreover, the action must be completed before the time of the main verb. The difference in meaning is subtle but significant: the English speaker is inviting his enemy to begin a process with two distinct acts or parts—coming and taking; the Greek speaker is telling his enemy that only after the act of coming is completed will he be able to take. In addition there is a subtle implication: in English "come and take it" implies that the enemy might not win the struggle—the outcome is uncertain; in Greek, the implication is that the outcome is certain—"after you have come here and defeated me, then it will be yours to take." For comparison, these elements happen to be present in the previously-noted English phrase, "over my dead body", or the similar phrase "I'll give up my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead hands."
[edit] History
Μολὼν λάβε was reportedly the defiant response of King Leonidas I of Sparta to Xerxes I of Persia at the onset of the Battle of Thermopylae (480 BC). Xerxes, whose forces vastly outnumbered the Spartans and their allies, offered to spare the lives of Leonidas and his few thousand warriors if they would only surrender and lay down their weapons.
Instead, the Spartans held Thermopylae for three days and, although they were ultimately annihilated, they inflicted serious damage upon the Persian army, and most importantly delayed its progress to Athens, providing sufficient time for the city's evacuation to Salamis Island. Though a clear defeat, Thermopylae served as a moral victory and inspired the troops at the Battle of Salamis and the Battle of Plataea.
The source for this quotation is Plutarch, Apophthegmata Laconica, 225c.11. This work may or may not be by Plutarch (ca. 46 - 127) himself, but it is included among the Moralia, a collection of works attributed to him but outside the collection of his most famous works, the Parallel Lives.
[edit] Modern usage
Molon labe has been repeated by many later generals and politicians in order to express an army's or nation's determination to not surrender. The motto ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ is on the emblem of the Greek First Army Corps,[3] and is also the motto of United States Special Operations Command Central (SOCCENT).[4]
In the Anglosphere, both the original Greek phrase and its English translation are often heard from pro-gun activists as a defence of the right to keep and bear arms. It began to appear on pro-RKBA web sites in the late 1990s and early 2000s. In the wake of firearm seizures during Hurricane Katrina and the subsequent defiance of Federal court orders by the New Orleans government to return seized weapons, the phrase has again gained popularity among Second Amendment supporters.
Others have covered it pretty well. The closer translation is "Having come, take" meaning "once you have overtaken us, feel free to pick up our weapons; we will not give them to you freely." So, "from my cold, dead hands" is a pretty close approximation.
Kind of like flipping the bird. The archers started doing that when the other side started cutting off the middle finger of any archer. It was to show the other side that hey up yours I still got my shooting finger.
a lot of things like this come from war time.

Dear Sesame Street,
We, the undersigned, would like to register our concern over the contest you are now conducting with Aniboom. We are concerned that your contest includes a solicitation of original design concepts, characters and content to be produced on a speculative basis by cartoonists, artists, motion designers and animators.
This approach, requesting new and original work to be created in competition, is one that we believe seriously compromises the quality of work that is entered into "competition" and is questionable, at best, for a reputable organization to request.

Man Charged in Deaths of British Prostitutes
Published: December 22, 2006
The authorities have charged a 48-year-old man with the murder of five prostitutes whose bodies were recovered in the area this month, the police said on Thursday.
They identified the suspect as Stephen Wright, who lives in the city's red-light district and was taken into custody in Ipswich on Tuesday.
''Stephen Wright from Ipswich has been charged with the murder of all five women,'' said Detective Chief Superintendent Stewart Gull.
He said that a 37-year-old man, who had been arrested Monday, was released on bail pending further inquiries. News reports identified him as Tom Stephens.
The prosecutor, Michael Crimp, said there was ''sufficient evidence'' to charge Mr. Wright with the murders of the women -- Tania Nicol, Anneli Alderton, Paula Clennell, Annette Nicholls and Gemma Adams.
''As the case has developed we have been carefully examining and assessing the evidence in order to come to a charging decision at the earliest possible opportunity,'' Mr. Crimp said.
Mr. Wright was to appear in court Friday, he said.
All five victims had been working as prostitutes, and their naked bodies were found in rural areas around Ipswich over a period of about 10 days beginning Dec. 2.

So I have now had 4 companies come in so far to give estimates for replacing my existing Trane XE90 with new furnaces. I have been given quotes for the modulating XC95M Trane/AS Freedom 95 (TUHMC100ACV4VA/AUHMC100ACV4VA) and the 2-stage XV95/AS equivalent (TUH2C100A9V4VA/AUH2C100A9V5A) which all seem to be in line with one another. The modulating with the 900 thermostat costs on average $600 more than the 2-stage models. Question is, in VA will I ever recover my money if I shell out the extra money for the modulating furnace?
I was also given a quote for S&G's from one of the companies that comes very highly rec'd for an Amana AMVC951155DX which came in SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than the Trane/AS models. Is that even a good furnace? I have read some bad reviews about Amana/Goodman products. Thanks for all your help.

They watched him oil a turncock sunk in the ground between two furze-bushes.
The little man was left in the centre of the room, his deep eyes smouldering upon the backs of the retreating members, his thumb and finger raised to the turncock of the metre.
One knew at a glance that if the turncock was to come, see, and overcome the reluctance of the allotted cock-to-be-turned, the water would burst out at every pore of the service-pipes in that house, except the taps; and would know also that the adept who came to soften their hearts and handles would have to go back for his tools, and would be a very long time away.
Let me ask, What are the real feelings of a householder who is requested to hand out a present to a turncock or dustman whom he has never seen?

Fortunately the church door was close at hand, but before he entered he was aware that the turncock had joined the throng with three bright instruments over his shoulder, as if his services were likely to be wanted toward the end.
I am on nodding terms with a meditative turncock who lingers in one of them, and whom I suspect of a turn for poetry; the rather as he looks out of temper when he gives the fire-plug a disparaging wrench with that large tuning-fork of his which would wear out the shoulder of his coat, but for a precautionary piece of inlaid leather.
The master workman in the engine-room does not teach his apprentice the theory of expansion, or of atmospheric pressure; he guides his hand upon the turncock, he practises his eye upon the index, and he leaves the science to follow when the practice has become mechanical.
"He forthwith switched off the water. We were left naked, covered in soap and shivering.
'I'm not 'avin this,' said Devine, who runs after the Corporal. Soon the water flowed again, but then it went off again, and on again, and off again ... we could hear a scuffle out back somewhere, then the thud of a body falling to the floor. Devine reappeared with a turncock, he had blood coming from his mouth."

America cry for your dead. Weep and gnash your teeth in grief but do not ask the question, "Where was God" in the massacre in Newtown, Connecticut. Although we had expelled Him from schools, He was there. As the bullets riddled the bodies of those tiny victims He was there. He was with each and every one of them as he ushered those little souls upward to Heaven.
He was there as Satan stepped through the doors with guns blazing. He was there as adults tried to protect those young lives.
Oh Lord, why is it that bad things happen to good people?
Oh Lord, why does the innocent have to suffer?
I sure don't have the answers but one thing I do know. He was there. He was there in the foxholes of Germany. He was there on the beaches of Normandy. He was there through the hurricanes of Katrina and Sandy He was there at Columbine High school and He was there at Newtown.
And He will be there for the parents and loved ones of those victims. Do not let your faith waiver, draw from His strength and lean on His everlasting arms.
America cry for your dead but be assured that today they are safe in the arms of almighty God.
Oh God draw them near to you as we pray for those who loved them. Amen and Amen

For $1.995M, you too can stand in Tyler Florence's kitchen, cooking up something amazing to serve under a canopy of Mill Valley foliage. The Food Network superstar's home— freshly listed— includes, no surprise, chicken coops, a garden of leafy greens and a gourmet kitchen, plus 5 bedrooms, 2 baths on an almost 9,000-square-foot lot of prime, forested Cascade Canyon. Wouldn't know what to do with all the up-scale cooking gadgetry and appliances? Here's inspiration.
Local success
Though Florence attended culinary school in South Carolina, he went on to national success, hosting numerous shows on the Food Network, publishing several books, and forging multiple restaurants. In 2008-2009, he developed a plan to open "Bar Florence" in San Francisco's Hotel Vertigo and Wayfare Tavern downtown (in the former Rubicon restaurant location). In Napa, he opened "Rotisserie & Wine." And near this home, he opened the locavore's paradise El Paseo in downtown Mill Valley, a project he undertook with rocker and local celeb Sammy Hagar.

To think that no matter how hard you try to treat you children equal its impossible?(33 Posts)
I adore my children, they are all different and I love them all for different reasons. For example, my oldest is at the stage where we can have great discussions about the world, I value his opinions even though they can be somewhat naive. My middle child has a great sense of humour and constantly makes me laugh. He can get himself in trouble sometimes at school due to his inability to know where the boundaries are but he is harmless and lovely. My youngest is a tough cookie, very independent and somewhat of a loner at times which I love because they certainly cant be described as a sheep. I embrace their differences and love them for their individuality. As a result of them being different I do at times have to treat them differently, for example I sometimes have to discipline my middle child for getting into trouble at school for being giddy, where as I never have to do this with the other two. Sometimes encouraging my youngest to join in with the rest if us can lead to arguments as can my oldest insisting that his opinion is of course the right one and he knows all there is to know at the grand old age of 16.
Recently my youngest two have started noticing that I "never tell the others off for x, y or z" and to be fair they are right, but you can't tell another child off for something they don't do can you?. In their minds though this equals them being treated unequally. My oldest was recently disgruntled because I had to take middle child shopping due to a growth spurt (they seem to forget the times when they get things and the others don't).
Anyway, I was recently discussing this with a work colleague who said I was wrong to buy for one and not the other! She also said that if one wanted a phone for Christmas then they should all get a new phone for Christmas. She claims that her children never think I treat the other better than the others because she actually treats them all exactly the same. I think she is delusional. Surely one day one of her children will get the hump that their sibling ate the most biscuits/always gets to choose whats on t.v (insert petty injustice as required).
So am I being unreasonable to think that it is actually impossible to treat your children the same ALL of the time?
I only have one child but I think your colleague is being U. Why on earth would you buy, say, a 16 yo and a 5 yo the same Christmas presents? And of course you can't tell someone off for something they haven't done! And part of childhood is 'growing into' things. Obviously you wouldn't have the same bedtime/going out rules for a 16 yo and a 10 yo?
I think the only time it can cause resentment (see threads on here) is when DCs are grown and parents give large sums of money to one and not the other (recent thread on house deposits) or pays for one lot of DGCs to do things and not the other (recent thread on school fees). But generally and while they are under your roof, no YANBU.
Overall though, they are treated equally. I think trying to make every single situation equal can cause these issues more sometimes.
IMO, providing each child with what they need, when they need it, is treating them equally. If, for example, you had taken middle child shopping when new clothes were needed, but had made another child wear things that didn't fit, that would be unfair.
Kids will get pissed off at decisions their parents make. Then they grow up!
As for the phone example, what if one of them didn't need/want a new phone and wanted something else? Is it not more unfair to give them something they didn't want? It sounds like she's projecting her own ideas of value onto the kids presents.
When my kids point out supposed inequalities I try and explain that I aim for equality in experience -which doesn't mean they get exactly like for like, but that on the whole things are balanced.
Treating you children differently is not the same as treating them unequally or unfairly.
They are individuals with different behaviours and needs - responding to that as and when appropriate is hardly unfair. Why would you buy them all new shoes if only one of them actually needs them? It all balances out in the long run and it's not healthy to allow children to confuse material indulgence with love.
I have seen parents try to make everything the same all of the time in the interests of fairness. And it seems that it often leads to a shocking sense of entitlement with children constantly checking that one isn't getting more than the other.
I think that you are far from unreasonable.
I love my children , I find some of them easier than others but I love all of them dearly. I don't spend equal amounts on them, I don't buy clothes for them all at the same time and I'm stricter with two of them because their personalities require me to. They are individuals and need to be treated as such , that's a much fairer & nicer way I think
Sounds like you re treating them the same though. I treat mine all the same. Just not necessarily at the same time It totally depends on what they need individually or what is going on.
They are all treated the same regarding expectations of behaviour and effort at school (but they're all usually very good) They get what they need when they need it and that might not be at the same time as the others.
If they didn't then yes I think they would have cause to complain about unfairness, but I do try to keep it balanced. When it comes to Christmas and birthdays I like to be fair.
My ds does a sport which means we have had to invest quite a bit in that. My dd1 doesn't do anything like that, so I try to bear that in mind if she suddenly wants or needs something that costs a little more.
I don't keep a spreadsheet totting it all up. I think as long as they know their needs are met equally and expectations are the same that's fair. Your colleague is wrong imo about all having a phone together. What if only one wants or needs a phone?
If you have to tell one dc off for stepping out of line more often than the others do then that's fair too. I think all children try to pull that argument from time to time though.
Treating children, or anyone for that matter, equally, does not mean treating them the same. It sometimes means treating them differently so that they can have the same opportunities.
An example would be two children need to travel to school by bus. One lives 10 miles away, the other lives 15 miles away. The council pay for bus fares so would give the child living 10 miles away less fare than the one living further away. They are both being treated equally (given the opportunity to get to school) but differently (receiving different bus fares) because of the distances involved.
I think you're right to assess each child's individual needs and treat them accordingly. I would carry on as you are and explain to your son how his behaviour will have consequences as would his brothers if they behaved negatively.
The aim should be to treat them FAIRLY rather than equally. It sounds like you already do that. Ignore the whinging!
I don't even try. They're considered equally however they rarely get "stuff" at the same time, I do however point this out to them, no harm in a reality check for them.
Buying them all exactly the same at exactly the same time is stupid, surely they don't want the same things all the time?
I would say that I treat my children fairly rather than equally. You can't possibly treat them all the same at the same time because like you say each child is different and at a different stage in life.
One of mine went to uni, the other didn't, so one has had a lot of financial support for 3 years. One had a large financial contribution to their wedding, the other will probably want a much more casual do and will probably need less for the day. We have a sort of inheritance which we will definitely share equally because that seems right, but any on going help is on an "as and when basis".
There are other examples, but I would say that financially both have been treated fairly when you take everything in to account. We would always be there for both of our children both emotionally and practically. I hope that they both know that. I think they do.
The inheritance isn't the money we are leaving to our children, it's money we had left to us, but don't want.
It goes without saying that our estate gets shared equally when we die.
Phew! I didn't think I was being unreasonable so glad you agree. I try my best, I sometimes get it wrong but my best is all I have so lets hope it's enough. I do my best to treat them all the same...I just don't treat them all the same at the same time ha.
I'm still astounded that my colleague thinks you should buy for each child if only needs new clothes....she must spend a fortune. She also said that on her children's birthdays the non b'day child also receives a token gift so they don't feel left out! I now have a "step ford wives" image of her home life where every detail is thought out meticulously and she counts out the carrots and peas to make sure they both have the same.
I have twins (non-id). I always tell them that I am fair but that does not always mean getting treated exactly the same. If one needs new school shoes or trainers and the other does not, then I am not buying 2 pairs just for the sake of it. I dont want to get them exactly the same for christmas as (1) they share a lot of stuff in practice anyway, (2) they dont always want exactly the same, and (3) as twins it is important to treat them as individuals. They have very different personalities and so are disciplined about different things. We do get the occasional grumble when one lkes the look of something the other got for christmas or feels they have been told off abotu something that they other one would not have been told off about, but overall they generally get that we are fair. Occasionally we need to remind them and sometmes I proactively remind them in advance, eg in the run up to christmas I remind them that they need to be polite and grateful about presents even if they prefer something their sister got - they do tend to get money from some relatives so they know they can always buy it for themselves, or sometimes they happily negotiate swaps.
With them being twins, I often get into the nature/nuture debate with people. One of my DTs is and has pretty much always been much more easy going than the other, and the general assumption is that this must be nature. It probably is but it may be that DTD1 (the less easy going one) was very ill when she was tiny and was in pain and therefore demanded (and got) more of our attention. Is DTD2 more easy going because that is her nature or becuase she adapted early to the fact that her sister needed more of our attention? (DTD2 still got all the attention she needed, it was just less). Who really knows? Even now when she is ill, we dont get the same drama about it as we do from DTD1, and life generally is just less of a drama with her.
But buying them all a phone for Christmas isn't treating them all the same. the oldest could say "it's not fair, I was 3 years older before you allowed me to have a phone". I resented that I was told to wait to a certain age for certain presents and then my younger sibling got it at the same time because it wasn't fair for him to miss out.
Or maybe one doesn't want a phone but wants a laptop. Is it fair that one is leaping up and down because they've got their dream present and the other is looking at the same present thinking, "but I didn't want that!"
You can't always be fair anyway. I remember talking this through with dd1 when she was about 6 and dd2 was about 3.
Example I gave:
I go to the park with dd2 while dd1 is at school, with a friend. Friend buys her dd (saem age as dd2) an ice cream:
Do I:
1 Don't buy dd2 an ice cream: I would have bought dd1 an ice cream if her friend had one at the same age. Also dd2 has to watch her friend having one. Dd1 agreed that wasn't fair.
2. By dd2 an ice cream.
Dd1 pointed out that wasn't fair on dd1 as she didn't get one.
So we then have other options:
A. After school I buy dd1 an ice cream. Then dd2 has to watch dd1 eating it. Dd1 agreed that wasn't fair.
B. After school I buy dd1 and dd2 an ice cream: This was dd1's favoured outcome, but still could see that she then had 1 ice cream, dd2 had had 2 ice creams.
This was hypothetical situation, but even dd1 could see that no solution was totally fair to both of them.
Your colleague is ridiculous. What if you had a boy and a girl and the girl wanted a new dress for Christmas. Would she buy the boy a (unwanted) dress too? If she had a seventeen year old who wanted driving lessons, would she say no because the fifteen year old wasn't old enough to have them too?
Counting carrots and peas is beyond ridiculous. Her children will end up obsessed with checking that they've got exactly the same of everything. I personally don't give my other children presents on one child's birthday - they each have their own day to feel special, and that's enough. When one child goes to a party and comes home with a party bag, I don't bring out a party bag for the others (but I do encourage the one with the bag to give the others a go with the toy or a bit of the sweets etc. as that's polite/kind). Trying to make things exactly the same for each of them is pointless and counterproductive IMO.
Treating your children fairly isn't about giving them all exactly the same thing, it's about giving each of them what they need. They are different people and they have different needs (and wants).
Children gradually learn the fairness in this, I think.
In the past I've far more resented being treated the same as my sister than anything else.
We're ten years apart in age; I'm the younger. Of course we had different childhood experiences and have always needed things at different times. I'd far rather these needs were met as and when than my mother getting herself in knots trying to give us the same at the same time.
Eg a big example: my sister needed a new kitchen so my mum gave her a large amount of money towards it, but felt she had to give me the same amount at the same time, else it wasn't fair. Although grateful I'd rather she didn't feel she had to do this and just give me money if she felt I needed it (if she wanted to). I feel it puts too much pressure on her otherwise.
A much smaller, but more irksome example: our uncle used to send the pair of us Valentine's Day cards. I remember my mum telling my sister than the one she'd got was exactly the same type as the one I'd received. Of course my sister would have thrown a tantrum if hers had been different, which is why we'd been bought the same, but to me that ignored the fact that I was a different person to her and it really grated on me. I wouldn't have minded a cheaper card, just a different one.
So to my mind, treating me and my sister fairly means treating us as the people we are, rather than an amalgamation.
My 2 dss mother buys them both presents when it is ones birthday. It's unbelievable!! Last time they both had bikes for dss1 birthday!
I do my best to treat my children equally, but that doesn't mean the same. They get sanctions for bad behaviour and rewards for good behaviour that are equal in the offering (IYSWIM) but will inevitably not be distributed equally every time because it depends on what they do.
They get new shoes, uniform and other essential clothing as needed. Extra clothing and treats are the same amount at about the same time.
They are now 10 and 12 and rarely complain about things being unfair.
Personally, I think it's important that they understand the difference between equality and being treated the same.
Oh, my DH jokes that he despises both his children equally!
Your colleague has a strange idea of parenting!
I have four children. They are not the same, so why would I treat them all the same? They are, however, treated equally. How daft of your friend!
YANBU op but your colleague is, It's important that you treat each child as an individual but that doesn't mean you are not treating them equally.
Ask your colleague what she would do in my situation. Dd3 wants a phone for Christmas which I have agreed to, dd1 & 2 both want other things which would have no appeal to the others and dd4 is only 2 so do I buy them all the same item ie a phone or buy them what they want?
Even having multiples of the same sex, I do not treat all of them exactly the same. Different people, different needs as a PP said.
And I can guarantee that your colleague's DC also argue that one has the rounder peas or the more orange carrot!
Children should always get exactly the same, of course, as otherwise it is favouritism.
When my son went to his first Scout camp recently, we bought both him and his sister a new rucksack, sleeping baby, torch, pen knife, etc. She is only seven, and won't camp for a few years, but it would be unequal otherwise.
It was really expensive buying DS a full set of ballet gear when his sister sat her first ballet exam last week, but you know, if you want things equal, you have to do it.
Or alternatively, in the real world, EQUAL does not mean THE SAME.
Remember that 2 + 2 = 4, but so too does 3 + 1.
Both my (adult) DC are convinced that the other is my 'favourite' (not in a nasty way, just in passing, and they get on very well) so it seems to me that I've got it about right.....

Sign up for the latest news & e-deals from Bay View Resort and you'll be entered to win a 3-Night vacation!
Receive the best money saving deals in Myrtle Beach!
When winter comes to the beach, snowbirds flock to Bay View Resort! And great deals are on the docket for those who qualify for the Bay View on the Boardwalk winter rental program by staying a minimum of 28 days from October through March.
One of the best parts of making the resort your home-away-from-home is the opportunity to meet a community of other winter visitors. That's why Bay View coordinates a meet and greet for winter renters, usually in January.
"Once most of them are here, we'll invite everyone and have food and drinks and coffee," said Steve Showers, front office manager at Bay View Resort. "Towards the end of it we'll discuss what events people are interested in for that year. Sometimes they'll want to do a game night, and we'll help coordinate a room for them to use for that."
"Basically, they decide what they want to do," Showers said. "We'll have a place in the lobby with a calendar where you can see what's coming up."
Another benefit for winter renters is the fact that Bay View is a newer, updated property with black granite countertops in its fully equipped condos—which also come with floor to ceiling windows with stunning views. There are even corner units that have balconies off both bedrooms. And certain room models may have a standard room connected to the condo that the winter renters can have rented to visiting friends and family for reduced rates.
And because Bay View's water amenities are all located indoors (though the sliding doors can be open in nice weather to bring in an ocean breeze), they never close, and you can enjoy the pools year-round.
But Showers said the biggest draw for winter visitors? Location, location, location. "We're right on the Myrtle Beach boardwalk. You really can't beat our location."
To learn more about winter rentals at Bay View on the Boardwalk, call 866-471-2578.

A young Culdaff designer had the eyes of Europe on one of his creations last night.
A neckpiece designed and handcrafted by Oliver Doherty Duncan adorned Ireland's Eurovision entrant Kasey Smith as she performed at the semi-finals of the competition.
The Ballyharry man's star has been steadily rising over the past year and TV presenter Laura Whitmore recently wore one of his designs to host the Irish Television and Film Awards.
Oliver's 'day job' is as a costume designer for the worldwide TV hit 'Game of Thrones.' He is also currently working in London on the new Warner Brothers film, 'Pan.'
Speaking to the 'Journal,' Oliver, who is a former student of North West Regional College in Derry and University of Ulster, said he can't quite believe how fast his career has taken off.
He said: "I finished University in Belfast on the Thursday,had the interview for Game of Thrones on the Friday and started on the Monday. It has been an unbelievable experience and a brilliant first job out of university. I was then asked to work on 'Pan,' a remake of Peter Pan, which is all very exciting."
Oliver'S fashion collection is on sale in Dublin and it was through this that Eurovision came calling.
He said: "It started off when Laura Whitemore saw my stuff and wore it to the IFTAs. Kasey then went to the Design Centre, where my collection is based and liked what she saw. I was then asked to create a specially commissioned piece for her Eurovision costume. It was totally unexpected."
Oliver had three weeks to create the piece. His remit was 'Warrior Princess.'
He said: "It's made from leather cord and macrame. It was all created by hand. Kasey loved it and is really happy with it."
Oliver is no stranger to television, as he won the RTE show 'Craft Master' while still a student. He disclosed how his mother Sarah Duncan is "very proud" of him and admitted he is "excited" about the future.
He said: "It has just been a whirlwind so far. It has all been very exciting. I'd never really lived away from home before, except for a year in Belfast. So, when I moved to London, it was straight into working on 'Game of Thrones.' That's a dream job really, the costumes are unbelievable. I'm able to work on that show, as well as the film and also have my own fashion label on the side. I'm happy with how everything is going so far."
Unfortunately, Ireland didn't qualify to go through to Saturday night's Eurovision final, but Oliver's design was showcased to millions of viewers watching across Europe and the world.

We're celebrating the last week of February as Afro-Latina beauty week, with a nod to all the beauty and diversity of Latinas! Be sure to check in the rest of the week for a new beauty tip specifically catered to Afro-Latina chicas!
Looking at Tatyana Ali, we're obsessing over this berry-plum lip. Purples can look great on any skin tone, but they can look especially beautiful in a brighter tone against darker skin with warm, golden undertones. To get the look, try a highly pigmented berry lipstick such as Clinique's raspberry rush ($15).
Looking for something different (such as a stain or gloss)? Check out our other berry favorites. Then tell us: What's your favorite lipstick shade?

Get dining news including restaurant closures and qualify for giveaways.
My regular sushi restaurant mostly for its convenient times and decent quality sashimi and rolls. They're open until 12am most days and 1am Fridays and Saturdays.
Pretty typical menu with bento boxes, appetizers, sashimi, tempura, rolls, noodles, special combos and party platters for large groups. Prices have rose recently too.
Still good value for decent sashimi and bento boxes. The Gyozas and Specialty Combos are plain and rather bland overall so I would avoid those and get them at the Vietnamese Pho places.
Service is generally good although the servers are sometimes a little impatient though the place is usually busy. One of the FEW places in Richmond where I would venture to ona regular basis. I hear Ichiro is good but I think that place is in a different price bracket.
What a shambles. 12 adults for dinner. 8 receive dinner in a timely manner. The other 4 are waiting for various hot plate combinations. After 20 minutes 2 more dinners appear. After another 10 minutes when everyone had finished eating we complain to the manager. He comps 1 of the missing meals and explains that the kitchen lost the ticket. What a bunch of crap. Food was alright but the level of service stinks.
Came here late last night with a friend of mine......All I can say is that is definatly is not one of the best sushi places to go to.....it is too pricy (I mean $4.25 for a spinach gomae) The sushi wasn't really anything to write home about. The service sucked too (probably because we were the only caucasians in there) the couple next to us came after we did and thier food came like just a couple minutes after ours (and they had alot more food than we did) It just didn't cut it
We won't be back
I expected a lot more from this place after all the good reviews. We arrived for lunch and right away the service was not good. We were left waiting with no one greeting us. When they finally noticed us, we were seated right away. The table was dirty, my sleeve stuck to it when I made the mistake of putting my arm on the table. It took a long time to get someone to take our order. We noticed another table who were there before us had also been waiting to place their order. I have to say the lunch combos are pretty good value, $8 for a lunch box. It took about 15 mins to find someone to place our order, but our food came out after about the same amount of time. The food itself was not bad. We also ordered a vietnamese lunch combo, which was not as good as the japanese food. Overall I much prefer Silver Tower next door for value and service.
Tried this place for the first time since they reopened. It was not bad. The sushi I found a little expensive for what you get back compared to the all you can eats in Richmond the quality was not bad. Large menu with lots of choices, not a bad option for sushi in Richmond
My friend invited me for a "late night menu" at Matsuyama after a boy's night out poker game. Winners pay for the losers…I ate for free!
The restaurant was a nice surprise in Richmond. I found the place to be very clean and bright. Service was efficient and pleasant. My complaint could be a big one. The two sushi chefs behind the counter were wearing their casual summer street cloths; what's with that? And one of the chefs kept touching his face and then kept on making the sushi rolls. We sat in a booth and I was facing away from the sushi bar and did not observe this until we walked by to leave.
We ordered 9 pcs of salmon (Atlantic farmed), 2pcs spicy scallop, flying fish roe, tamago, nigiri sushi. 4 pcs raw oyster, beef sashimi, salmon roll, spicy chopped scallop roll, and spicy tuna roll. All the food was what you would expect from a decent Japanese sushi place. Nothing stood out of the ordinary, except for the beef sashimi. The price for two was reasonable; $32.00 plus tips for the meal.
Until they get a uniform for the chefs, can't say when I'll be back.
This was our third attempt at Matsuyama. The first two were aborted because we couldn't find parking! Of course I can say the same for any restaurant along Alexander Road. The third time was a charm as we were lucky to park at a spot just vacated. When we got there, it was quite busy (which explains why their parking lot is always full). We arrived at 8:45pm and noticed there were specials starting at 9pm. However, the waitress said it was alright for us to order before 9pm. I ordered the standard fare consisting of nigiri sushi, rolls, udon and so forth. I was quite pleased with the food because it was prepared nicely. Some places they serve you frozen fish (ie....hurried thawing). Everything was just right with the good food and good value. We'll certainly go back, but that depends on parking!
Ok, so I come here so often that sometimes I'm a little embarrassed to be back so soon but hey they offer great food for the value. I mainly go for the late-night 9pm special, which gets crazy busy during the weekends.
What impresses me most about this place is their solid consistency, the food is always presented nicely and tastes above-average for a non-Izakaya Japanese restaurant in Richmond. The agedashi tofu is remarkably tasty, and the salmon is probably farmed but at least it doesn't have a fishy taste to it. Nice portions. Good tempura, and teriyaki. I love oyster motoyaki's and they have a great sauce but the oysters itself are never quite fresh I find - and I'm kind of skeptical about the shells they use since I have a feeling they are re-used. Kind of gross now that I think about it, I hope its not the case but it is simply too expensive for a Japanese restaurant to offer all-you-can-eat quantities of oysters by the shell, thats why so many cheap AYCE places put their motoyaki in those tin things.
Service is ok, never been really blown away, sometimes it's hard to get their attention but the food comes out fairly quickly.
Pretty decent food and price only if its after 9pm. Had beef udon and beef sashimi both at 4.95 each. The udon was served in a large bowl and was definitely filling. Tried their sushi here before and just tastes like jap-wannabe sushi. Sushi itself is large but not of high quality. Nice looking restaurant though. Very clean and newly renovated. But will only come after 9pm.
The late night menu is great when you want to grab a bite between 9pm and 12am. If there were no other options, I would definitely return. We had a few pieces of nigri sushi, sashimi, and a chopped scallop roll. The salmon sashimi was quite slimy and one of my pieces of fish smelled a little odd. I don't think we'll go back unless there's no where else to grab late night sushi. The value was great though...but I guess the explains the fish. Maybe we'll try the cooked food next time...if there is a next time.
One of my favourite sushi places in lower mainland, Matsuyama is an extremely affordable place to eat with very good sushi. Although place feels somewhat dirty and floors are sticky, the lighting is great and has a North American Japanese restaurant feel. And the service is friendly, Has an X factor that just keeps me coming back, not quite sure what though. Worth trying and finding out.
It's hit or miss with Matsuyama. The first time I went there I really liked it but afterwards, upon trying other menu items, I was disappointed. I loved the spicy tuna sashimi - extremely tender and the sauce they use is really really good. The service there is also pretty exceptional. There is one guy who is always there (I think he might be the manager but I'm just guessing) who is very nice and accommodating. I wouldn't recommend the rolls or the tempura. I didn't think it was possible to do any wrong with tempura (all you do is deep fry is after all) but their tempura is never very good - wayyyy too much batter. However, the sashimi is generally pretty good so if you're in the mood for a light meal Matsuyama can be a good place to go. The decor is simple and nothing fancy but it's really clean and the pricing is reasonable.
A friend recommended this to us - apparently they've been around for a while but were closed for a year because of a fire.
For 18 bucks you get the largest, freshest and best tasting hamachi sashimi. Tojo's will probably charge you more than double for it. Kudos as well to their mirugai and toro sashimi.
Their rolls are very generous, tasty, and well priced. Best Japanese food value, I think.
Parking sucks, though. One time I parked all the way in Lansdowne Mall's parking lot.
first of all, their late nite menu starts at 9pm. i find their standard to be very consistent - always very good. we usually start off with the agadashi tofu, maybe a miso soup. they've never skimped out on the sashimi. my favorites are chopped scallop and toro. my bf favs are salmon, amaebi, negitoro, and spicy tuna. their beef sashimi is average. and don't forget to order the oyster motoyaki, yum yum. if you're not a big fan of "raw" food, no worried, they have a pretty big selection of cooked food too. i've experienced their california roll (huge) and beef teriyaki roll, not bad.
service is typical of most asian rest.
It is usually busy whenever we go (later than 9pm), and a handful of times where we had to wait at the front. The longest I've waited for a table for 2 was probably 15-20 minutes? It was too long, but our food made up for it!
We usually go there to order from their Late Night Special Menu (dine-in only). $2.99 maki sushi and $0.89 for their nigiri sushi...♥ Like someone else said, if you are craving AYCE, then go here! It is much better quality and value for the food.
Service: I have never encountered any problems here. Our food come out fast. The servers are typically very busy (so they are not too attentive) but friendly when we ask them for something. You just need to ask them or remind them for whatever you need.
Love Matsuyama!
Food: my boyfriend and i ordered the teriyaki chicken and tempura hot plate. the teriyaki chicken contained so much fat (overall it was half meat and half fat) and it was also really SOGGY. the tempura was good, fresh and warm though. we also ordered a california roll which was packed with a lot of rice (yuck) and did not really stand out either.
the miso soup tasted alright, a bit sour and not even hot =(
Service: the servers did not serve the miso soup to us until we were finished eating our meal and we had to ASK for the miso soup. they said they forgot about the soups (again, the soup was not even hot) they did not even check on our table and it was not busy during that time.
Ambiance: it is kind of dark and gloomy in the restaurant. they need to renovate the restaurant into a brighter, happier atmosphere!
my boyfriend asked me, would you go back there? i said, no comment, sorry.
I've been here many times and I never leave disappointed. It's not your typical sushi restaurant. It reminds me of Sushi Garden in that the quality and presentation of the Sushi rocks. They have a large selection of sushi and they serve big portions so you get your money's worth. I will go back again.
I like Matsuyama and I go often. They have good deals for their late-night menu. So good that you're guaranteed a 15-20 minute wait around 9:30pm or so. Reservations may not be fulfilled in a timely manner due to how jam-packed it is.
But the service is efficient, the servers are friendly but they are busy busy busy! It's hard to find them sometimes cause they're running all over the place fulfilling orders or cleaning up.
The food is solid but I've had my fair share of mediocre experiences here (e.g. fish scale in the sashimi, food not coming but ending up on the bill, really off chopped scallop, lukewarm noodle bowls) but it's cheap and busy!
Value is great for late night! $1.99 for cones and good Sashimi combos. Check the door for a special of that day (which is pretty well priced) you will often find items not on the late-night menu there but at a reasonable price (e.g. soft-shell crab).
The ambiance is loud. There's TVs going (often playing sports games) so it's a hit with Hockey fans and constant loud talking over the general noise.
They take Visa, Mastercard and AMEX.
Parking is horrendous here as it shares the spaces with several other restaurants.
Order BOX A and when it arrives at your table, consider what you get in the box vs. how much you're paying for it, and then eat it. You will probably love Matsuyama too.
(If you are not very hungry, order BOX A and eat everything except the Chicken Teriyaki, which you can save for lunch the next day!) I always think that this is my signature move, but I bet a lot of people do it too.
If BOX A doesn't convince you, try the late night menu after 9pm. In particular: Crab & Tobiko Salad, Agedashi Tofu, Ebi Sunomono, and whatever sushi you enjoy - they are all great.
Chawan Mushi is good too.
Go there. If it's between 9PM and 1AM, stop reading this review and go there now. You will never want late-night All You Can Eat again.
As much as I adore Matsuyama, I wouldn't go there for anything but their late-night, as their rolls/robata are comparatively expensive
They have a huge menu of reduced-priced items available after 9PM every night. There is far more selection than AYCE places, and you can order off that menu AND their regular menu at the same table!
Nearly every item on this list is popular. It's not the best Japanese food in Richmond, but for $0.79 pieces, you can't go wrong.
I highly recommend trying the Beef Sashimi - You know you're curious! It's lovely and tangy. My boyfriend and I fight over the onions used as a garnish it's so yummy.
You can easily eat your fill for less than the average AYCE total of 11.95.
Another outstanding bonus: They deliver. YES. FINALLY. They have a minimum order of $25, but this is easy to accomplish as you can't get the late night menu prices. We order all the time (about once a week actually) and they drive all the way out to Steveston and No.2 Rd, so they'll go pretty far (unlike a lot of asian places in Richmond it seems)

It's a race that has been raising awareness on the dangers of drugs for years.
"This running race is bittersweet, every time I come down here, I have a tear in my eye," said Ginger Katz, Founder and CEO of the Courage to Speak Foundation.
Over 150 runners took their mark at Calf Pasture Beach early Saturday morning for the 16th Annual Ian Eaccarino Memorial 9-mile race, to remember a young man who lost his life to a drug overdose 18 years ago. After losing her 20 year old son, Ian Eaccarino to an overdose, Ginger Katz began reaching out to drug prevention resources and established the Courage To Speak Foundation in 1996.
"After he died we decided to speak out, people told us we should tell people a lie and that he died of a heart attack and we couldn't do that, I couldn't burry my son with a lie. He was a good kid and he made an unhealthy decision to use drugs, but I wasn't ashamed of him."
As avid runners, Katz and her husband Larry, organized an annual memorial run after the tragedy. With sponsorship from the Norwalk Parks and Recreation Department and the Lightfoot Running Club, the race raises around $4,000 each year. The funds go to the non-profit organization's local and national drug prevention programs for elementary, middle and high schools.
"They could have taken this tragedy and just have internalized it and gone into hiding and just had remorse over it," said Norwalk Mayor Harry Rilling. "But what they did was, they decided to bring this strong message to young people and to families."
Every year the foundation grants a special award to the youngest runner. It also offers courses to encourage effective communication between parents and children.
"For every life they save, everything is worth it," said Rilling. "Just one life is touched and changed forever, all the effort is worth it."

Natural Area Rugs (NAR) is a leading supply of contemporary space rugs and high quality natural fiber coverings a global success at importing, manufacturing and selling top quality space rugs. This is one for the significantly laborious-core DIY fans – I admit I actually have by no means tried this myself, however once I noticed this video I knew I needed to include it. The medieval Catholic church look has at all times been a core a part of the gothic subculture, even whether it is simply to subvert and shock, and stained glass windows add an air of mystique and eerie high quality to any room.
It only took every week or two, and voila, he saw the guest room as one in all his dangle-out spots, and stopped utilizing it as a rest room. I even have numerous do-it-yourself artwork by all of us within the household on one wall of the dining room. The rug I purchased was low cost looking and the return course of has been a horror show! Without fail West Elm at all times has good looking, excessive-high quality rugs on sale, and runs frequent promotions on common priced rugs when you're willing to attend it out! This is a room with a really nice canvas of sky and the entire fundamentals in place.
Cheap offers entice numerous clients and are a perfect platform to advertise and exhibit costlier rugs. Rugs will be employed as being a instrument for overlaying up the tarnished wooden or marble flooring. We bought new area rugs for our house and this rug pad is exceptional for including consolation and padding for the world! Having coping with high finish designers for rugs and carpets we've always supplied as to what they are looking for. Check out quantity 2 and volume three and quantity 4 and volume 5 for newer low cost rug inspiration!
If you do go for black or a really dark grey, I really advocate having a number of very sturdy lighting sources, ideally wall sconces with a view to guarantee an excellent unfold of sunshine across the room. Oriental rugs are patterns of squares, diamonds, crosses, octagons, pure geometric linear designs and carefully woven with short agency piles with net fringes. Of course, some price range rugs you may score for subsequent to nothing don't stand the take a look at of time, but that's not the case with these beauties.
Areas rugs sure, carpet no. He was the one who advised I may need to look more severely at space rugs reasonably than carpet when we built. They don't make many giant rugs, however the large jute rugs are of fine quality and have quite a lot of colour depth. Importance of consideration to carpet padding and thickness if you end up contemplating cheap rugs.

Discussion in 'Drum & Bass' started by JPower, May 21, 2016.
Certainly interesting that all the music will be released for free if you join their mailing list.
I've never been much of a fan of the Prototypes but I wish them the best of luck with this project.
Interested to see what they produce with their new "artistic freedom". They said on Facebook that they scored the soundtrack of a film, which is pretty awesome. Things going well for them.
Not sure on the label name at all, Already enough of the word 'hype' in the D&B scene. Unrelated to the label but "hype" clothing is bloody awful too.
However that being said the prototypes are defo one of my favorite duo acts, City of Gold album provided so many good tracks, Pale Blue Dot is massive! still used by a lot of DJ's in the scene
yeah the name is a bit shit. Should've just called it Hypercube Recs
Separate names with a comma.

It is a big investment and a hectic job for a person to improve and beautify his land. But if you have chosen a right landscape architect for your home or property, you need not to worry at all. The landscape architect is a person who prepares and reviews site plans and prepares cost estimates and specification.
Here are some tips which can help you while choosing a landscape architect for your property. The first this is your Budget. The professional landscaping can be affordable or expensive. So it is up to you what you want for your property and what are your requirements. So, it is best to set your budget parameters first.
Second this is the internal design team. If you really want to maximize the potential of your space, make sure your landscape company has its own professional designer who can help make your dream designs a living reality.
The third thing is design preview. In this day and age, you should be able to actually see your design before you write the check. Make sure your design company can provide some kind of preview or drawing.
The next thing you should know about the landscape architect is the experience they hold in the landscaping industry. They should have plenty of experience in the field and should be familiar with what works and what doesn't. This can save a lot of time and money in the long run.
The fifth thing is the offer they are providing. Make sure that the company you choose can provide more than just plant services internally. Most likely your design might call for special lighting, hardscaping such as a pathway or water feature as well as plants. The next thing is the guarantee on plants. Your landscaping design company should offer a guarantee on all plants.
Same as plants your landscape company should offer a guarantee on hardscape and lightning. The last but not the least thing is the maintenance facility provided by the company. Make sure your landscaper will be available to you to answer questions and offer service to you after your project is complete. You shouldn't be stuck to figure it out on your own. Since they designed it, they'll know it better than anyone else and how to get the best of it aesthetically and functionally.

England tightened their grip on the Ashes after a seven-wicket victory over Australia in the first ODI. Alex Blackwell and Ellyse Perry's unbeaten 141-run stand put the home side in a strong position before the opener Charlotte Edwards led the fightback for the tourists with a quickfire 41. Lydia Greenway and Arran Brindle then followed suit. Their fourth-wicket partnership of 142 guided their side to victory and an eight-point lead with five matches to play.
Australia were without their captain, Jodie Fields, who fractured a finger during practice while Katherine Brunt was sidelined for England after a recurrence of a back injury.
England made early inroads on a slow pitch after Australia opted to bat. Anya Shrubsole trapped Elyse Villani lbw before Meg Lanning chipped a full toss from Jenny Gunn to gully to leave Australia 33 for two after 12 overs. Jess Cameron and Blackwell struggled to find their rhythm, with Cameron falling to a superb one-handed catch by Shrubsole after trying to hit Danielle Wyatt over mid-off. Blackwell and Perry were handed lives after Sarah Taylor missed two leg-side stumping, and their 50 partnership was a sluggish affair.
The final five overs were a different matter. The two accelerated after Blackwell reached her 16th 50 in one day internationals. Despite the slow outfield the 30 balls went for 52, including a slog-swept six from Blackwell. She and Perry rotated the strike well, helped by some wide bowling that allowed the latter to register a half-century and Australia to get past 200.
"We have to look at the way we started and try to get a good improvement because it probably wasn't good enough to chew up the balls that we did early," Blackwell said. "Once we posted 200 and Pez and I had a good partnership we were feeling quite positive about the total. We would have liked a few more but our bowling attack is capable of defending that."
Edwards flourished at the crease during England's reply but Heather Knight struggled, her nine runs coming from 37 balls before she edged Julie Hunter. Taylor looked busy but went cheaply, chipping Erin Osborne to mid-on before Edwards fell lbw to an improved Holly Ferling.
England, in an exact replica of Australia's innings, were struggling on 68 for three before the fourth-wicket partnership rescued them. Much like Blackwell, Greenway did not look comfortable in the early stages. She relied heavily on the sweep and was nearly run out without scoring and was also dropped a few overs later.
"We were just trying to be really positive," Greenway said. "When you're being positive you want to try and steal every single you can. I know I probably did spend a bit of time on the floor, but we trust each other with the calling. Arran's a very good runner and it's something we look to do, to keep rotating the strike."
Brindle was the more fluent of the two but Australia were guilty of allowing Greenway to settle. She pulled Ferling ferociously to the boundary to bring up her 50, with Brindle following suit in the next over. The pair accelerated in the powerplay, looking untroubled as they chased down Australia's total.
Australia now face an uphill struggle if they are to reclaim the Ashes. Blackwell remained confident but said the top order needs to take more responsibility.
"The girls who bat up top are aggressive players," she said. "I'm happy to have got into an innings today and I feel a little bit of weight off my shoulders. The girls at the top just have to be patient with that and it will happen. Once those two [Villani and Meg Lanning] get going we'll be scoring at a very fast rate, I can reassure you."

They'd given much thought to how they would see it -- some had been planning for months -- but they did not imagine this kind of pandemonium. They waited in the long line outside the Universal CityWalk Cinemas, staring into the eyes of the movie ticket ushers, and they looked back at them frightened. Surely, it was a good way to watch a movie. At midnight. With other fans.
Around 11:30 p.m., the ushers smiled in a welcoming way as they finally motioned moviegoers into the theater.
It was time for their eyes to be dazzled by midnight showings of "Twilight."
In a sight played out at theaters across the Southland, hundreds of fans came wearing "Twilight" T-shirts -- some homemade with phrases like "Suck my blood, Edward" or "Hunt me, Edward" scrawled with black marker. A few sported "I kissed a vampire and I liked it" buttons on caps and purses; others simply toted around copies of the bulky books, cramming until the lights dimmed inside the theater; and then there were the few trying to reduce the saliva spillage that so often occurs when wearing fake fangs.
The Summit Entertainment film sold out hundreds of performances weeks before its Friday opening. Meanwhile, Fandango sold out 1,000-plus more for Thursday midnight shows. As of early Friday morning, the online ticket retailer had been selling five "Twilight" tickets per second, said spokesman Harry Medved.

Hoonah resident Joar Anderssen Savland, 72, died June 13, 2002, in his sleep.
He was born July 19, 1930, in Naustdal, Norway, to Anders and Boletta Savland. He grew up on the family farm during World War II and later served in the Norwegian Air Force.
In 1953, he left his parents, three brothers and three sisters in Norway to travel to Alaska. He was promised a job with Alf Skaflestad and began logging in Port Frederick near Hoonah.
Family members said he learned English as he went. "Some would say he kept his accent, which at times may have been decorated with a few choice words if he took the time to let you know he was displeased," they said.
According to his family, his true love was fishing. He began with a small skiff, spending many summer nights camped on the beach close to his favorite fishing grounds. He eventually graduated to the Standy, trolling and long-lining for most of the year. He supplemented his income by lending his carpentry skills and trapping in the winter.
In recent years, he maintained Halibut IFQs by employing Maxine Savland, whom he married in 1962. Together, they built a family, four houses and a life together in Hoonah.
Family members said, "His special gifts at fishing, hunting and gardening have gone unmatched. His storytelling, sense of humor and company will be sorely missed."
He is survived by his wife, Maxine; three sons, Patrick, Stanley and Andy; grandchildren, Jason, Joardan, Katelyn, Sven and Jonathon; and siblings in Norway, Jenny, Kare, Alf, Magnhild and Malfrid. He also has many nieces, nephews and extended family members in his homeland.

They don`t have a right to conduct their protest on private property they should have been doing that on public property and they wouldnt have been arrested.
Once there, squad cars from the Will County sheriff's police and Elwood police flanked the group to the north and south and about 25 riot police from a Mobile Field Force Team gathered on the other side of the fence in the Walmart warehouse parking lot.
The rally organized by Warehouse Workers for Justice (WWJ) drew an estimated 600 people — including many from unions, community organizations and faith-based groups in Chicago — to the Elwood site. They gathered in a park on Deer Run and walked, sang and chanted along Mississippi Avenue on their way to the warehouse's shipping entrance on Centerpoint Drive.

If they had unsafe working conditions why not just contact OSHA where they will investigate and God forbid somebody gets hurt while they are investigating then they will be paying a large fine and forced to fix the issues? Or did our government already go lax with the OSHA regs and I wasn't informed?

Golden Eagles Begin Homestand Tuesday vs. Harvard
March 18, 2013
vs. Harvard (0-4, 0-2 Ivy League)
Follow Marquette Women's Lacrosse on Twitter: @MarquetteWLax
MILWAUKEE – The Marquette University women's lacrosse team returns to Milwaukee to begin a three-game homestand on Tuesday, March 19 against Harvard at 3 p.m. at Valley Fields.
"We are excited to be playing again so soon and especially back on our home turf," Marquette head coach Meredith Black said. "We learned a lot over spring break and are anxious to continue to grow as a team. Harvard will provide a proven opponent for us as we return to action at Valley Fields."
The game will feature free admission and is Marquette's "Snack with SAAC" day, as all fans will be treated to peanut butter and jelly sandwiches made and served by members of MU's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee.
Marquette will honor the Seton Hill women's lacrosse team Tuesday afternoon with a pregame moment of silence. Seton Hill head coach Kristie Quigley passed away along with her unborn son and the team bus driver after the team bus crashed off the Pennsylvania Turnpike on the morning of Saturday, March 16. Marquette assistant coach Courtney Tamasitis was the head coach of Seton Hill for four seasons before taking her current position at MU in 2011. She also played with Quigley for one season at Duquesne, in addition to playing under her for one season with the Dukes.
"We are deeply saddened by the unfortunate events of Saturday morning on the Seton Hill women's lacrosse team," Black said. "Our thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of those affected by this terrible accident which claimed the life of three individuals. Courtney Tamasitis' close connection to Seton Hill has made this a very emotional moment for our program and it is important that we honor coach Quigley's memory on Tuesday afternoon."
The Golden Eagles (2-5) concluded a West Coast road trip with a 12-9 loss at USC on Saturday afternoon and dropped all three games over the university's spring break. Marquette led the Trojans 7-6 at halftime before allowing the first four goals of the second half to USC. Hayley Baas led the Golden Eagles with three goals in the loss, while Kenzie Brown and Claire Costanza each contributed three points. Costanza leads MU this season with 20 points on seven goals and 13 points.
The Crimson (0-4) enters the contest after falling 16-3 to reigning national champion Northwestern on Saturday afternoon. Senior Micaela Cyr and freshman Audrey Todd lead Harvard with 17 points on the season, while the Crimson are being outscored through four games by an average of eight goals per contest (16.25 to 8.25). Harvard began the season nationally ranked, but has fallen to Stanford, then-No. 15 Cornell and then-No. 19 Penn, in addition to the No. 3 Wildcats on Saturday afternoon.
Live statistics will be available through GameTracker on GoMarquette.com.
After Tuesday's game, the Golden Eagles will face their first BIG EAST Conference foes of the season when they welcome Villanova and Rutgers to Milwaukee on Friday and Sunday afternoon.

So, I write a movie blog, and as such I post pictures of the movie, posters, etc. I am wondering, since I find all of these pictures on google or at least a majority of them, can I get into trouble for this?
Need help? Check out our Support site, then
Picture Permission
Yes, you can but you probably won't. If you search the forum for Copyright, you'll find it's a contentious issue. Remember that Google isn't so much a site as a service; it points you to other places on the web. It's those sites you need permission from. If they ultimately turn out not to be the copyright holder, at least you tried.
Generally it's safe to use YouTube videos, since as a condition of uploading a video the person must certify that he's the copyright holder. Which is not to say that he is, just that the responsibility for violation lies with him, not with those who innocently post the videos to their blogs.
