If you're like me, you're not a fan of the generic year merchandise and the stuff you can find at nearly every store in Walt Disney World. With the generally family-friendly atmosphere of Walt Disney World, I wasn't expecting to find much in the way of beer-related souvenirs. To my surprise, this wasn't exactly the case…. → Read More

Mosby's mom: Dog's slaying inspires a crusade
The letters and cards and phone calls were a big part of what pulled Carole Adams through. One letter from Maine had been addressed simply to "Mosby's Mom, Staunton, Va."
"Somehow, some way, that letter got to me. That in itself was amazing," says Adams, whose six-year-old malamute-husky mix, Mosby, a certified therapy dog and downtown Staunton's unofficial goodwill ambassador, was shot and killed last summer by a neighbor in western Augusta County.
Other notes were sent by children who drew pictures of Mosby and by adults who wrote poems. One man called from Arizona after watching a television report on the tragedy.
The death of Mosby made international headlines, as did coverage of the trial of the pooch's killer, James Coleman. Adams told The Washington Post before the trial, "I hate the man for it. He's taken my beautiful boy."
Adams says, "I needed to do something to turn this energy into something positive. I was afraid it was going to consume me, this hatred I felt."
And so she turned back to the support she'd received from well-wishers.
"I thought the best way to deal with this would be to organize a foundation in Mosby's memory to do something to help other animals in need," she says.
The Mosby Foundation will raise money for local and worldwide volunteer organizations engaged in animal rescues. In doing so, it will repeat what Adams did seven years ago when she came across a scared three-month-old puppy abandoned at a Central Florida train station.
"Nothing I do is going to bring him back," says Adams. "But maybe the fact that this story got so much attention will give pause to the next hothead with a gun."
Adams earmarked money donated for her legal expenses to a Mosby Fund and has used it to pay for veterinary procedures for dogs rescued from streets and animal shelters and subsequently placed in adoptive homes. The Mosby Fund will morph into the Mosby Foundation when Adams receives 501 (c) 3 designation from the IRS.
"A lot of organizations are doing great work rescuing dogs and placing them in caring homes, but if they come across animals that need veterinary attention before they can be placed, it's hard for them to pay those bills," says Adams. "In that sense, we're a support group."
To contact The Mosby Foundation, e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com or write the Mosby Foundation, P.O. Box 218, Deerfield, 24432.
Carole Adams poses with "Willy," a recent rescue who is now up for adoption.

* Finance minister extends stay in Moscow, seeking aid
* President to meet party leaders on "Plan B"
* ECB threatens to cut off funding to Cypriot banks
* Russia says EU behaving like "bull in a china shop"
By Michele Kambas and Matt Robinson
NICOSIA, March 21 (Reuters) - Cyprus considered nationalising pension funds and ordered banks to stay shut till next week to avert financial chaos after it rejected the terms of a European Union bailout and turned to Russia for aid.
Crisis talks among the political leadership in Nicosia are set to resume on Thursday after late-night meetings to discuss a "Plan B" broke up on Wednesday without result.
EU officials voiced frustration but little sympathy for an ambitious but now bust banking system that extended itself well beyond the island; Russia, whose citizens have billions to lose in those Cypriot banks, called the EU a "bull in a china shop".
President Nicos Anastasiades, just a month in office and wrestling with his country's worst crisis since the Turkish invasion of 1974 that divided Greek- and Turkish-speaking Cypriots, is due to meet party leaders at 9:30 a.m. (0730 GMT).
The deputy leader of his Democratic Rally warned time was running out: "We don't have days or weeks, we have only hours to save our country," Averos Neophytou told reporters.
Banks, shut since the weekend, are to stay closed for the rest of the week and so not reopen till Tuesday after a holiday weekend, a government official told Reuters, extending the misery of Cypriot businesses already feeling the pinch.
Without a resolution, the fate of the small nation of just 1.1 million has shaken confidence in the single-currency euro zone and raised geopolitical tension between the EU and Russia.
Finance Minister Michael Sarris extended a stay in Moscow, where Russian officials said he asked for a further 5 billion euros on top of a five-year extension and lower interest on an existing 2.5-billion euro loan from Moscow.
In a vote on Tuesday, the island's tiny legislature threw out a proposed tax on bank deposits in exchange for a 10-billion euro bailout from the EU, a stunning rejection of the kind of strict austerity accepted over the past three years by crisis-hit Greece, Portugal, Ireland, Spain and Italy.
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, who was preparing to meet an EU Commission delegation in Moscow on Thursday, said the bloc had behaved "like a bull in a china shop" and likened its proposals, which would force Russian customers to contribute to the rescue of Cypriot banks, to Soviet-era confiscations.
But the European Central Bank kept the pressure on, warning that it would have to pull the plug on Cyprus unless the country, one of the smallest of the 17 members of the euro zone, took a bailout quickly.
Despite the looming threat of default and a banking collapse, Cypriots on Tuesday balked at EU demands for a levy on bank deposits to raise 5.8 billion euros, once taboo in Europe's handling of the stubborn debt crisis.
Anastasiades chaired meetings throughout Wednesday with party leaders, ministers and officials from the troika of EU, ECB and International Monetary Fund lenders. The government said a "Plan B" was in the works.
Officials said it could include: an option to nationalise pension funds of semi-government corporations, which hold between 2 billion and 3 billion euros; issuing an emergency bond linked to future natural gas revenues; and possibly reviving the levy on bank deposits, though at a lower level than originally planned and maybe excluding savers with less than 100,000 euros.
With Cypriot Energy Minister George Lakkotrypis also in Moscow, officially for a tourism exhibition, speculation was rife that access to untapped offshore gas reserves could be on the table as part of a deal for Russian aid.
Finance minister Sarris said talks with his Russian counterpart, Anton Siluanov, would continue, but there had not yet been any offers, "nothing concrete."
Cyprus is a haven for billions of euros squirreled abroad by Russian businesses and individuals - a factor, too, in the reluctance of Germany and other northern euro zone states to bail out Cypriots without a contribution from bank depositors.
The island's banking sector has been crippled by its exposure to bigger neighbour Greece. Athens said Greek branches of Cypriot banks would also stay shut till the weekend.
The proposed levy on deposits would have taken nearly 10 percent from accounts over 100,000 euros. Smaller accounts would also have been hit, although the government proposed softening the blow to spare savers with less than 20,000 euros.
Chancellor Angela Merkel, facing an election this year in Europe's main paymaster Germany, said it was fair to expect those with savings over 100,000 euros - the normal limit for EU state deposit insurance - to contribute to a bailout.
While taxing even small savers was politically explosive, the Cypriot government had balked at sparing them by imposing a higher tax on big depositors - fearing for an offshore banking business that accounts for a big share of its economy.
European officials were growing increasingly exasperated. But the idea of bankruptcy for a member of the euro zone, however small, raises fears for confidence in the currency.
"There is no obligation to accept help," said Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski, whose country does not use the euro. "Cyprus has the possibility of living with its own mistakes."

Newman and his friend, the writer A.E. Hotchner, went from bottling homemade salad dressing as Christmas gifts to creating a successful company, Newman's Own, that became known as much for the food products and cartoons of Newman on the label as for its philanthropic goals. Even if Newman had not left an impressive body of work as an actor and director, his success as an entrepreneur would have ensured fame.
The company, based in Westport, has donated more than $200 million in profits to charities in the United States and in other parts of the world since 1982. The actor was a hands-on director of the company, whether the task was taste-testing new products or presiding over the finals of a Newman's Own recipe contest.
"He really loved good food, so he was really involved in the business," said Kirsten McKamy, who worked for Newman's Own for eight years. "He wasn't just a figurehead; he came up with ideas."
He also was willing to listen to ideas. When daughter Nell Newman wanted her father to add organic foods to the Newman's Own family, she prepared an organic Thanksgiving dinner. Newman's Own Organics, a label for pretzels, cookies, fair-trade coffee and even pet foods, became a division of the company in 1993. As children do, Newman's Own Organics struck out on its own as a separate company in 2001, but profits still are donated to charity. "In the end, every bit of work we did went for charity," McKamy said.
Paul Newman's involvement in the food business didn't end with supermarket products. In 2006, the actor and chef Michel Nischan opened The Dressing Room A Homegrown Restaurant next to the Westport Country Playhouse.
"He always wanted to do a restaurant," said Nischan, citing Newman's and Hotchner's book, "Shameless Exploitation in Pursuit of the Common Good," in which the business partners say that they originally wanted to open a restaurant called Newman's Own. "When the theater was finishing its refurbishing, with him and Joanne [Woodward] spearheading the capital campaign, Paul saw the dilapidated restaurant next door and said let's do it."
Newman wasn't involved in the day-to-day operation of the restaurant, Nischan said, but instead, looked at the big picture. "He had a lot to do with conceptualizing and making the restaurant move forward."
The chef marveled at Newman's accomplishments not only in the arts but also in the fields of food, business, philanthropy and auto racing. "It's almost unfathomable that one human can have that much reach," he said. "But the interesting thing is, when you take all that away, he's just a normal guy. He loves things like having a ham salad, riding a bicycle, ordering eggs over the counter at a diner. He loves the notion of Americana and America, in the sense of that Norman Rockwell time."
Nischan, who spoke with great respect for the actor, said he was thankful for the opportunity to be witness to Newman's ability to dream of new ideas, to articulate those ideas and to his sense of humor.
Speaking about Newman a few months before his death, McKamy also remembered the actor's wit. Her boss was a man with a "very dry sense of humor" and who thought before he spoke. "He is a man of few words, but the words he comes out with are perfectly chosen."
"I felt it came full circle to go to work with him," said McKamy who grew up in Westport and, as a child, played with Newman's youngest daughter, Clea. "I think he's one of the great humans of this earth, [who] lived his life with such integrity, [who] worked with such integrity."

The 2013 Hyundai Sonata is Hyundai's midsize sedan and is considered one of the most stylish offerings in its segment, featuring a dramatic mix of lines, curves, and creases at almost every angle that Hyundai refers to as "fluidic sculpture." But there has been less praise about the Sonata's interior. During our late-2012 comparison involving the Sonata GLS, Toyota Camry LE, and Volkswagen Passat, we noted the Hyundai "felt noticeably tighter inside" and "the hardest to get in and out of (watch your head!) and the least coddling on our backsides."
The base model Sonata GLS is powered by a 198-hp 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine mated to a six-speed automatic. The SE and Limited models use the same engine, but get a slight power bump to 200 hp. A turbocharged 2.0-liter four cylinder produces 198 hp and is available on the SE 2.0T and Limited 2.0T models, leading to fairly quick 0-60 mph times in the 6-second range during our testing. But the turbocharged powertrain wasn't enough for the Sonata SE 2.0T to take top honors in a late-2011 three-way comparison with the Camry SE V-6 and Passat VR6 SEL (the Hyundai placed last). "In real-world duties, the 2.0-liter turbo felt plenty powerful and torquey," we noted. "The ride, while not as compliant as the Passat's, was quiet and comfortable, if a bit too busy for our tastes."
The 2013 Sonata is also offered with a hybrid powertrain that combines a 166-hp, 2.4-liter four cylinder gas engine with a 40-hp electric motor that returns an EPA estimated 35/40 mpg city/highway. Regardless of trim, standard features include Bluetooth phone and streaming audio, split fold-down rear seats, and steering wheel-mounted audio control buttons. Higher trim levels include notable features like heated front and rear seats, HD radio, and leather seats.
The 2013 Hyundai Sonata's panorama sunroof, which was previously standard on Limited models, is now an option to reduce costs. The six-speed manual has been dropped and heated rear seats and navigation are available as options.

Well, ain't this a kick in the teeth? Sometimes you can do everything right, and have it all go wrong. That's the story of DC, and the story of baseball.
The Nationals managed everything perfectly. They limited his appearances in the minors, and never pushed Strasburg beyond his breaking point. He hasn't topped seven innings in the majors, and hasn't broken six since June. At the slightest hint of discomfort, they shut him down. (Think Rob Dibble feels like an ass about now?) No, this was no Dusty Baker style crime (though Strasburg's last appearance before his first DL stint was in Cincinnati...hmmm....)
If anyone's to be blamed, it's his college and high school coaches who let him keep on using his violent delivery, because it wouldn't be their problem for long. The human body's not supposed to throw a baseball overhand, let alone at 100 mph and with a curve that can look like it breaks twice.
This is how it works in baseball. Power pitchers are delicate little roses, things of beauty only because their mortality is assured. We rarely get more than a few years of them at their peak, so to prolong our enjoyment, we fire up the hype machine. Strasburg was mythologized for years before he put on a major league jersey, and now it'll be another couple years before he does it again.
But did it have to happen to Washington? On the day they learn baseball's best player is coming to town only to pal around with Glenn Beck, they lose the face of their franchise. Their basketball team's first superstar since, Juwan Howard I guess, decides to play with guns. Dan Snyder still runs the Redskins. One wag opined that the Caps should trade Ovechkin before a piano falls on him.
But let's not eulogize Strasburg. The way everyone's talking about him being cut down in his prime, you'd think this was another Sean Taylor. Strasburg's not dead. He's just injured. And it's a surgery that has a better than 90 percent recovery rate, and one that often lets pitchers come back stronger than before.
So wait until 2012, when Strasburg hits 114 on the radar gun. In the meantime, maybe Steve Phillips was right.

(Note: Bill and Lynda Boyle recently returned from a trip to the Holy Land. These are a few of their experiences.)
The BYU Jerusalem Center is spectacular. Hugging the side of a prominent hill at the northern end of the Mount of Olives, the eight-story building is a wonder to behold. While the building is wonderful to look at, the view from the building is even more amazing.
Directly west, across a little valley, lies a beautiful city, constructed entirely from limestone quarried from nearby deposits. The buildings have a beautiful golden hue and when the rising sun first hits the massive walls that surround the city, it is no surprise that it is known as the Golden City.
This is no ordinary hillside. It has been witness to the most dramatic, meaningful and historic events in the history of the world. And the city across the way is no ordinary city. It the most holy city in the world, sacred to Christians, Moslems and Jews.
The name of city, Jerusalem, means the City of Peace. How ironic, since this city has seen more war and bloodshed than any other city.
For many years after the establishment of Israel in 1948, Jerusalem was a divided city. Israeli and Arab tensions resulted in a heavily fortified war zone that split the city in two. However, in the Six Day War of 1967, the city was reunited. Soon afterward, a large swath of land surrounding the Old City and belonging to Jews, Christians, and Moslems, was expropriated and set aside for parks, museums and educational facilities.
There are 15 to 20 parks on this land, which includes the western slopes of the Mount of Olives. The largest of these parks is the Orson Hyde Memorial Garden. For 16 years, one of the most desirable spots sat vacant. It sits just below the prestigious Hebrew University and the Augustus Victoria Hospital.
In 1984, ground was broken on this land for the BYU Jerusalem Center for Near Eastern Studies. The spectacular facility is known as one of the most beautiful locations in the city, a place where people from all cultures can gather. The Jerusalem Center houses the BYU Study Abroad programs. The students have returned after an absence of several years. More than 80 students recently completed a semester of study at the center and a similar group will arrive this week for the next semester.
I worked for BYU in Jerusalem during the construction phase and through the first year of the building's operation. In the subsequent 23 years, the landscaping has grown and the building has matured. Beautiful gardens, which feature many of the plants and tools mentioned in the Bible, adorn the grounds. In this land of tradition and custom, a new Jerusalem tradition is for local couples to have their wedding photos taken from the Jerusalem Center verandas.
The local congregations of the LDS Church use the Jerusalem Center as a meeting house on the Sabbath. We were in the Galilee for our Sabbath and did not attend church meetings in Jerusalem. However, we did attend one of the weekly musical concerts at the Jerusalem Center. The concerts are one of the highlights of the arts scene in Israel's capital city. Performers and spectators alike covet a ticket to perform in or listen to the concert series, which features the finest talent in the Holy Land and beyond.
The concerts are presented from the beautiful auditorium in the Jerusalem Center, which features massive glass walls and a breathtaking view of the Old City of Jerusalem. The architects did their best to ensure that the auditorium matched the view. One of the finest organs in the Middle East was imported from Europe to fill the auditorium with music and the acoustics are wonderful.
After waiting in line for an hour to secure a standby seat, we listened to a wonderful performance by one of Israel's most acclaimed classical guitarists. He was accompanied by a cellist and a violinist from the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra. They were joined in several numbers by a flutist and a percussionist.
The audience included a wide range of Jerusalem's elite. We were some of the very few Americans among the enthusiastic group that crowded the auditorium. It was a wonderful evening. A highlight was hearing a beautiful version of Ava Maria, presented by Jewish musicians at Christmas time in the BYU Jerusalem Center.
Church in the Galilee
The little chapel in the Galilee is the only property owned by the LDS Church in Israel. The other buildings are rented or on leased land, including the BYU Jerusalem Center. The chapel was purchased in 2007 and, soon afterward, became the home of the small Galilee branch. The remodeled home sits high on a hill in the city of Tiberias and has a breathtaking view of the Sea of Galilee.
The Galilee branch is home for a handful of members of people, including a number of Spanish-speaking members of the Church from South America and the Philippines. BYU service couples from Tiberias and Haifa attend the meetings, in addition to a stream of tourists who visit the area.
The anchors of the Galilee branch are Margreta Spencer and the Hansen family. Spencer, as she prefers to be simply known, is a returned LDS missionary from western Canada who moved to Israel in the 1960s. Her brave actions in 1967, helping out in a remote hospital near the front lines of the Six Day War, helped her secure permanent residency and eventually, Israeli citizenship.
The Hansens are a multi-generation family who first moved to Israel in the 1970s. Marlin and Margaret Hansen have passed away, but their children and grandchildren continue to live in Israel. Their daughter-in-law, Ann Hansen, became familiar to a number of San Juan County residents during the 2006 Lebanese War, when she wrote a blog for MissionaryMoms.com about her sons in the Israeli Army.
The view from the pews in the Galilee chapel is unforgettable. Just behind the pulpit is a wall of windows and beyond sits the pastoral splendor of the Galilee region, a panorama that takes in the setting of the major portion of the ministry of Christ.
You can see the Mount of Beatitudes and the tiny villages of Capernaum, Bethsaida, Chorazin and Magdala (home of Mary). These place names are familiar to Christians around the world and what was taught there helps strengthen the faith of millions. What an intimidating task for a speaker, to try to say something meaningful when the simple view behind the speaker holds so much meaning.
We arrived early for church on the Sabbath and noticed immediately that a few things were different. No less than four small boards on the wall held the page numbers of the hymns that would be sung. The first showed the page numbers for the English hymns, the second for Spanish, the third for Hebrew and the fourth for Russian. Beautiful piano music filled the building.
The meeting began when Brother Hansen welcomed everyone, first in Hebrew and then in English. His wife, Ann Hansen, had moved from her place at the piano playing the prelude music and translated his words into Spanish for a small group on one side of the chapel.
Brother Hansen announced that Spencer would lead the music and Ann Hansen would play the piano. His wife translated the words and then moved back to the piano and started to play a beautiful Christmas hymn. It was a bit jarring when the singing began, but then we realized that the small congregation was singing the same hymn in four different languages.
Ann Hansen moved back and forth from the piano to the Spanish-speaking congregants several times through the early portion of the meeting, translating everything that was said or done. The only exception is that she didn't translate the sacrament prayers. The first was offered in English and the second in Spanish.
Brother Hansen introduced the first speaker, who spoke in English. Ann Hansen dutifully translated the talk into Spanish. The next speaker was a member of the church from the Philippines. Ann Hansen followed her to the pulpit and proceeded to translate the 20-minute speech about repentance into English.
Afterwards, Ann walked to piano and played for the rest hymn. I think that it was a rest hymn for everyone but Ann. Then Brother Hansen stood and announced that the final speaker would be…. Ann Hansen. Ann then spoke eloquently for about 30 minutes, pausing every few sentences to translate her own words into Spanish. Just watching it was exhausting.
After she played the piano for the closing hymn, Ann met everyone and made sure all of the visitors felt welcome.
I hope that she went home after church and had a long nap.

May I voice the idea of gauging our selves and others not what life's good forturne has superfially gifted us to ride or not to ride. Not looking at others by what they have or lack by our own standards of materal, wealth, or expression in what they ride and why. But by other means and words such as compasion! ...Compasson and care for others where ever they may be... or what ever goals they have. (myself included...I'm not perfect!)

Well put Psychosaint.¿ My first bike was a used Honda....it was my starter.¿ When it was time to buy new, I did a lot of research and test drives...yes, even¿tested a couple of¿harleys....and I decided, for many of my own personal reasons, to purchase a "jap" bike.¿ Along with the history lesson there's something else to remember.¿ Everyone has their own tastes/favorites when it comes to their ride, but no one should be condemned because they don't follow the rest of the herd.¿ Despite the fact of her ignorance, if I saw she was in trouble on the side of the road, even though she may not take it because I don't ride a harley, I'd stop to offer Ms. Katy a hand.¿ Not because she rides a harley, but because she is a fellow rider.¿ I've always heard it said, it doesn't matter what you ride, as long as you get out there and do it.¿ Obviously she has lost sight of true brother/sisterhood.¿ Actually, she probably never had it.
I want to be a biker so bad I dream about motorcycles - I have my permit - just need to learn how to ride and be the best I can be.

Lawrence O'Donnell MSNBC Anchor belittles "We Are Change" reporter Luke Rudkowski by faking ignorance of the Globalists.
Steve Watson
May 31, 2012
MSNBC Teleprompter reader Lawrence O'Donnell has admitted he is "way too lazy" to look into the activities of the elite Bilderberg Group meeting in secret this weekend in Chantilly, Virginia.
O'Donnell was asked about Bilderberg by We Are Change reporter Luke Rudkowski, who attempted to break through what can only be described as a wall of ignorance and cognitive dissonance to enlighten The Last Word host.
The as always mild mannered and polite Rudkowski attempted to explain to O'Donnell that Bilderberg is an annual meeting of most influential people on the planet.
"No it's not," O'Donnell shot back, before adding, "I have no idea what it is – so it's not."
When Rudkowski attempted to explain that last year's meeting was held in Switzerland, O'Donnell said, "That's a lie. People are lying to you."
When Rudkowski said he actually went to the location of the meeting to report on it, O'Donnell said "No you didn't. You didn't see a single media person go…"
When Rudkowski attempted to explain that Bilderberg meet to form policy and consolidate power, as admitted recently by Former NATO Secretary-General and Bilderberg member Willy Claes, O'Donnell repeatedly said, "no it's not, no it's not, no it's not."
O'Donnell, who would barely even look Rudkowski in the face during the short encounter, is presumably so high on his peanut gallery that it is beneath him to even talk to the alternative media.
"I believe the world is simpler than you think," he concluded, saying that every bad thing in the world can be "explained by stupidity."
"You are misunderstanding the universe," O'Donnell patronizingly told Rudkowski, after suggesting that the reporter "talk to someone who knows something about this."
When this is the level of sneering ignorance displayed by those within the mainstream media, is it any wonder that Bilderberg is able to meet without scrutiny and create global policy without oversight?
In addition, is it any wonder that the ratings of the likes of MSNBC are dropping faster than a bad facelift?

A new road safety campaign is using a light-hearted video to drive home a deadly serious message to young drivers.
Created by Road Safety Scotland for its #DriveSmart campaign, the short clip features a young driver being told off for using his phone by his gran, who emerges from the car's footwell.
The clip is the first in a series that will introduce formidable grans berating their grandsons for a range of unsafe behaviour, from being distracted to driving too fast.
Precious cargo
The campaign was developed after research found that young drivers change their driving behaviour depending on who they have in the car with them. Those questioned said that they drive more carefully when they are carrying 'precious cargo' like their gran in the car.
They also admitted to being concerned about letting down family members, including gran, with poor driving behaviour, such as texting while driving or driving faster than the speed limit.
Over confidence
While the clips are designed to raise a laugh, Road Safety Scotland's director Michael McDonnell said they carried a serious message.
He said: "Young men are prone to over-confidence in their abilities, a misplaced sense of control and a desire to push themselves and their cars to the limits.
"This campaign will address some of the key contributing factors that lead to casualties on Scotland's roads in a way that young men will take notice of. Next time the drivers see themselves slipping into bad habits, they should imagine Gran is in the car with them."
New research reveals that over 61 per cent of Scottish men aged 20-29 consider themselves to be either very good or excellent drivers. Despite this claim, latest figures reveal over 2,040 were involved in accidents in the last 12 months, with 314 killed or seriously injured.
UK-wide data also shows that younger drivers (aged 17-24) are the most likely to be killed or seriously injured in a crash. They make up just seven per cent of all licence holders but represent 20 per cent of all drivers killed or seriously injured.
Striking a chord
Christine Hinshelwood is one of the Scottish grandmother involved in the campaign.
She said: "The thought of my grandson being involved in an accident or, God forbid, being the cause of one just doesn't bear thinking about.
"This campaign struck a real chord with me, so I jumped at the chance to get involved and help spread the #DriveSmart message. I'm sure the campaign will be a real success and I hope young men take the message to heart."

Placing the Audience
Using Cheat Codes[edit]
We're going to making heavy use of cheat codes here, so let's once again go over how to use them. First, you hold CTRL and SHIFT, then press the C key. This makes the console appear at the top of the screen, and you'll type specific phrases here. When you press Enter, the cheat will go through. If it worked, the entire console will simply disappear. If the code was rejected (for example, if you misspelled something), you'll get an error message and the console will remain open. You can force the console closed by again pressing CTRL, SHIFT, and C.
The codes are not case-sensitive, so all three of these codes would work the same way:
TESTINGcheatsENABLED on
testingcheatsenabled on
teSTingCheATsENAbleD on
To make it easier to read, we'll intercapitalize the words, but know you don't have to. Also, for the off/on arguments, you can do them in three ways: off/on, false/true, or 0/1. So all three of these codes would work the same way:
testingCheatsEnabled on
testingCheatsEnabled true
testingCheatsEnabled 1
We'll be going with off/on for simplicity, but you can use any of the argument pairs that you wish.
All codes and arguments are typed without quotes in the console.
Remember that we need two cheat codes on in order for any work to be done here. The codes are, in order:
testingCheatsEnabled on
Placing the Audience[edit]
If "stone walls do not a prison make," then wooden flooring does not a stage make. You need an audience, or else it's just a pile of planks and bricks in the middle of an open plain.
Click the Debug Sort, then look at your stage again. There are two nearly invisible icons to the left of the stage, as you can see in the screenshot to the right. These two icons represent the areas at which the real audience members (as opposed to the phantoms created in Big Show venues) will stand or sit to view your performance. In almost every EA-made lot, the audience is forced to stand, but we don't have to limit them that way.
Either way, we need to mark these zones. The right icon of the two (the one adjacent to the stage) is a 3x3 square, while the left icon is a 2x3 rectangle. Squares are easier to work with, so we select it, then lay down a few squares in front of the stage. You'll want to give a tile or two of distance between the stage and the audience zone to allow other Sims to walk around as needed, but otherwise the layout is up to you. Just remember to orient the audience zones so they're facing the stage, else the audience itself will face the wrong direction.
Even after placing the zones, they may not appear right away, even if they're already placed. Similar to the stage markings, you'll need to flip back and forth from Buy Mode and Build Mode a couple times to make them appear...
If you do nothing else, Sims will gather in those zones and look at the stage while you perform. But we can give the audience a way to relax so their poor little simulated ankles don't get tired for the three-hour shows. We'll leave the back and flanking zones as standing-only, but we'll give those front rows a different option.
Any seat, even if it's touching a table, that's inside those zones can be used by the audience members. However, object behavior is slightly glitchy, so we have to buy and place things in a specific order.
First, we buy two tables, and we place them outside the zones, right in the middle of the grass...
Now, table orientation happens automatically so we don't have to think about it. So we pick up one table...
And hold it (but don't place it) over one of the zones...
See how it's oriented 45 degrees in relation to the stage? This is the way the table needs to be turned to be properly used. Now, here's the strange thing: if we place the table down in the zone like this right now, we can't place chairs next to it. So, now that the table is oriented right, we'll put it back in the middle of the grass. We repeat this with other table...
Now that the tables are oriented correctly, it's time to place the chairs. Again, we just pick a couple dining chairs and place them camera-down (so they face the stage), and put them next to each other per table...
We can't change color styles once the chairs and tables are in the audience zones, so we'll do that now. With a few color tweaks and textures, we get our completed tables...
Now we place the tables back in the front row zones, and we've got our finished audience zones...
Just like that, we can now seat four Sims at the concert while the rest stand! The tables can be further decorated with objects like table lamps, but just like changing the style and texture, you'd have to put the table in the middle of the grass (that is, out of the audience zone) in order to make any changes.

Repost: JAMES ROBINSON Describes the New 52's EARTH 2
James Robinson is finally getting to talk about Earth 2, and while he's not giving much away, there's one thing that's abundantly clear:
This is not your father's Earth 2.
The comic, which Robinson is launching in May with artist Nicola Scott, will tell the story of heroes first emerging on the alternate Earth. It will focus on heroes like Batman, Wonder Woman, and Flash — but the people wearing those costumes may not be the same as the more familiar heroes on the main DCU Earth.
In our interview, Robinson revealed that:
- This is a complete reboot of the Earth 2 concept.
- Earth 2 has a "five-year jumping on point like the main DCU Earth" for its superhero story.Earth 2 #1 - The story of issue #1 begins with a few characters (including Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman) who are "gripped" in a dire situation. But then an "event" happens, and "out of that conflict," some familiar faces begin to "take the mantles of superheroes in the future."
- Jay Garrick is the "everyman" through which readers are introduced to the world of Earth 2. While the name Jay Garrick may be familiar to older DC readers as the elderly Golden Age Flash, in this comic, he's younger, as seen in our exclusive art for the cover of Earth 2 #2.
- Alan Scott and Al Pratt are also key characters in the story of Earth 2.
- Robinson said: "It isn't the Justice Society. It's Earth 2. So it's going to be a whole world of different characters."
- The comic also introduces different versions of Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman, but Robinson said Earth 2 is an "ensemble" book, and doesn't just focus on the Trinity. (For previously released information on those three Earth 2 characters, see our summary here.)
- The first issue also includes Helena Wayne as Robin, and Karen Starr as Supergirl, before they somehow end up on the main DCU Earth as Huntress and Power Girl (as seen in the current Huntress mini-series and May's World's Finest).
- The differences between the main DCU Earth and Earth 2 are not traceable to one easy explanation (such as, "they lost the war").
- Fans of Wally West and Donna Troy should not expect to see them on Earth 2, because Robinson said he doesn't know what the plans are for those characters.
- Although Parademons show up on the first variant cover to Earth 2, don't expect to see Darkseid (keep reading for Robinson's cryptic explanation of that).
- DC and its writers have a tough time figuring out what to call the main DCU Earth. Robinson originally used terms like "Earth One" and "Earth Prime," but Newsarama inquired with DC editorial and was told that Robinson should have used "main DCU Earth." This is the second time a DC writer accidentally used the wrong name for the main DCU Earth in an interview with Newsarama.
What follows is the transcript of our discussion with Robinson about May's Earth 2.
Newsarama: James, it feels like this is less a reinvention of the old Earth 2 and more like a reinvention of the DCU in general, but just on a different Earth. Is that the right interpretation?
James Robinson: Well, this book is definitely a reboot in the vein of Grant Morrison's Action Comics or Geoff Johns with the new origin of the Justice League. It's one of those books. It isn't a soft reboot, like Green Lantern or Batman.
Nrama: What's the world like? From the teases we've seen about Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, it feels like this world is darker. Is that the correct assumption we should make from some of the images and descriptions we've seen?
Robinson: It isn't darker. It's just taken a different turn based on key events unfolding differently than on [the main DCU Earth]. And as the series progresses, you're going to see that, while it isn't a completely different world that's so alien to us that we can't recognize it, or even a world with a gimmick, kind of like the old Earth X where it hadn't won the war. Those kinds of things, which are very easy and pat to put down.Earth 2 Superman This is an earth that in some ways is very like [the main DCU Earth], but in very key important ways, it's also very different. And obviously, I can't reveal too much now, but by the end of the first issue, I guarantee you you'll get a sense of how this world is different and then how it's familiar at the same time.
Nrama: I think the big question is, does it match the five-year-old superhero timeline on the main DCU Earth? With Helena Wayne running around as an adult, we get the feeling that superheroes have been around a lot longer on Earth 2.
Robinson: I don't know. If you think about her age in the Robin sketch and her age now, I don't know if it's accurate to say that they've been around longer, but they've been around for five years.
If you compare her age now as the Huntress to the age she is as Robin in that illustration, it's safe to say there's a five-year jumping-on point like [the main DCU Earth], but it doesn't necessarily imply to me that they've been around longer than that.
Nrama: Are you saying it's less than five years old?
Robinson: No.
Nrama: OK. Well, there's a lot of speculation that the "lost" characters from Teen Titans might show up on Earth 2. Is there any hope for fans of characters like Donna Troy and Wally West that they might show up on Earth 2?
Robinson: From what I gather, based on the panel interviews that Dan [DiDio] gave recently, I believe that DC has plans for those characters. I'm not sure what the plans are for Wally West and Donna Troy, to be honest with you, if there are any at all. I have no idea.
Nrama: Then let's talk about what you do know. What will we see in issue #1 of Earth 2?
Robinson: Well, you're going to see the status quo of the superhero community on Earth 2, which are the characters that DC revealed last week. And you're going to see them in a pretty extreme situation that has gripped the world at that time.
And then from out of that conflict, you'll also see other familiar faces as they begin to get caught up in the dramas and begin to take the mantles of superheroes in the future.
The characters that you're going to see in issue #1 will be Jay Garrick, Alan Scott and Al Pratt.
And then obviously, as the series unfolds, you'll see other characters still.
But the point of this book is that it isn't the Justice Society. It's Earth 2. So it's going to be a whole world of different characters with things going on in different parts of it, obviously all coming together as the plots coalesce and these plots arise.Earth 2 Supergirl But it's definitely an ensemble book with these characters. You know, people want to see Jay Garrick. They want to see Alan Scott. And you're going to see them front-and-center in this book as much as anyone else.
Nrama: That's interesting to note. Because images we've seen so far from Earth 2 — the variant cover for issue #1 and the sketches — have all been focused on the Trinity of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. But you're saying that it's not just about those three? That there are superheroes all over Earth 2?
Robinson: What I'm saying is that, as the series unfolds, events happen that, in the future, you will see superheroes around the world. Yes.
Or rather I should say, you will see different characters in different stories — all of them part of the big picture, which is our ongoing dramas on Earth 2.
Nrama: DC has given us a cover for issue #2, which reveals Jay Garrick. What can you tell us about his character in the Earth 2 comic?
Robinson: As the book unfolds, Jay Garrick is very much our point of entry to the world. He's the "everyman" character that we all like, that we all want to be, want to hang out with. That's kind of the role he was in the original Earth-2, and I think it suits him well. He's the likable guy, the one you care about.
Nrama: What about Alan Scott?
Robinson: Alan Scott, as you'll see in the first issue, is a titan of industry and communications. He's a noble, gallant man who will rise to the challenges presented to him.
Nrama: And you mentioned the character we know as the original Atom, Al Pratt. What's he like as we meet him?
Robinson: In the first issue, Al Pratt is a solider who is also everything that you want Al Pratt, this tough little fighter, to be. And yet he is faced with an impossible task and rises to the occasion.
Nrama: We've been introduced somewhat to this Earth 2 version of Superman. He's "mourning" Lois Lane. Was she killed? Or did she just die?
Earth 2
Wonder WomanRobinson: Um...
Nrama: Does that matter?
Robinson: Well, I'm never going to be quoted by the comic book press that the death of Lois Lane doesn't matter. I'll tell you that right now.
Nrama: Good idea.
Robinson: So instead I'll say, the events of her tragic death are not something that we actually will be showing, but they are something that drives Superman on in his actions in the comic book.
Nrama: And it sounds like Wonder Woman has the same sort of drive because she's lost people close to her as well, correct?
Robinson: More importantly, she's the last Amazon, so she has her heritage that she carries with her. It isn't just that she's lost her sisters and that whole world, but also that she has this sense that she has to carry on for all of them, and be even stronger and even better for all of them.
Nrama: The description we saw of Batman talks about him choosing to kill to save his own daughter. And his daughter is Helena Wayne, the Earth 2 Robin, correct?
Robinson: Yes.
Nrama: Yes. But it hasn't been revealed that Batman is Bruce Wayne under the mask — only that he's a Wayne. Assuming you can't reveal who's under the mask, what are this character's motivations for being Batman? Is it the same as the Batman we know?
Robinson: At this point, that isn't explored. His origins are much more mysterious. But he has put his web of intelligence and crime-fighting abilities out throughout this world, so he's very much his own version of the Batman on [the main DCU Earth]. The big difference is that he has a daughter he's trained to be Robin and to pass on all of his skills and talents to her. And of course, we'll get to enjoy that with the able talents of Paul Levitz [in May's World's Finest].
Nrama: Right. Will we see the Helena/Robin and Karen/Supergirl in your comic?
Robinson: In the first issue, you will see them in the book, yes.
Nrama: So if Helena and Karen are in your first issue, but then on the main DCU Earth after that, I get the feeling that there's a very important "something" that happens at the end of your first issue, and that leads to the World's Finest book and the rest of your story in Earth 2. Is that correct?
Robinson: There's a lot going on in the first issue, yes. And it's a really, really good final page.
Nrama: You're being more than a little cryptic, James. It's hard to understand what's going on in this book.
Robinson: Yeah, I wish I could speak with candor. But in this instance, it's a bit of a knife walk, I have to say.Earth 2 Batman Unfortunately, for everything that I don't say, there are a million theories and concepts, and people get angry because they don't know what's going on. This is a very tricky book to promote.
Nrama: Then let's just finish up with a question about this threat we've been shown from the first issue. It's obvious from the variant cover — which showed several Parademons attacking — that the "event" that happens in issue #1 is related to Darkseid. Right?
Robinson: No. It's related to Apokolips. And that's all I can say. It's a very subtle but very important difference.

|The South Australian Advertiser, 09JAN1860, pg3
"Last Tuesday night, when town and country were well abed, and let us hope not without thankfulness of heart, nor without having taken thought of 'all those who travel by land or sea;' - when even the rancid haunts of vice in London were emptying, and the homeless were slinking off to snatch forgetfulness somewhere out of reach of wind and rain: - in the dead hour of a desolate night, desolate enough among street [sic] lamps flickering in a clammy fog, more desolate still when a sickly moon peered dimly through a drift of ragged cloud, and the wind howled and moaned with a roar of rage and anguish - in that desolate night and that dead hour one of those terrible calamities which are remembered for centuries was hurrying near five hundred of our fellow creatures to sudden death at sea, after a safe and prosperous voyage of twelve thousand miles, within six hours of port, and within stonethrow of the long-wished-for land. Heartrending and disastrous is the shipping intelligence of this week all round our coasts, but the wreck of the Royal Charter will be a melancholy fireside tale among our children's children. If, indeed, what is called 'progress' be truly defined as an increasing dominion over time and space, the England, marching at the van, atones for her pre-eminence by many a hostage. We talk of bridging seas by the size and speed of our ships, but every now and then we offer up costly sacrifices to avenge our triumphs, and correct our pride.
It would be easy for some glib interpreters of Providence to pronounce homilies on the fate of a ship laden with the root of all evil, and of men hasting to be rich; for it is certain that the Royal Charter had at least L500,000 on board, and that many of her passengers were returning from Australia with fortunes in their hands. But this catastrophe may point, we think, a safer and more serviceable moral. To mortal sight human destinies are at best a chaos, and it is not for mortal wisdom to presume to fabricate out of inexplicable chances a providential order of its own. Here, for instance, was a ship touching at Queenstown, and landing 13 passengers, one of whom left his wife on board to pursue her voyage to Liverpool, and as it turned out, to meet death on the way; here were ten poor riggers, just returned from working a vessel to Cardiff, taken on board from a steam-tug in with a ship that had come all the way from Australia in safety. Who will presume to judge? 'The one was taken and the other left.' Let us be content to moralise more humbly and humanely on the fate of our fellow-creatures. It were a miserable task, while the bodies of the poor castaway people are still awaiting Christian burial, to look about for whom to blame, when all but a score are beyond the reach of blame or praise. It is easy for us to wonder and regret that the Royal Charter should ever have passed on from Queenstown and sailed up the Irish Channel without a pilot in wild and threatening weather - that without a pilot, and with a northerly gale coming on, she should have passed by Holyhead, and kept hugging a dead lee shore at night along the most dangerous line of all our coast. Any one who knows that coast, or who has even glanced at a chart, cannot fail to be struck with consternation at the bare thought of such a ship as the Royal Charter keeping that Welsh land close on board in the worst of weather, night coming on, without a pilot, in the hope of finding one, and for the sake of saving a few hours at the close of an astonishingly rapid and successful passage."
What a writer. What emotions in his writing. We continue on tomorrow with his description of the destruction of the Royal Charter.

Hangover Helper: Waffle House Hash Browns
Just what the doctor ordered.
Whether you're nursing a horrible hangover, driving down I-95 at four in the morning, or looking for somewhere to get married, Waffle House always seems to hit the spot. Regional restaurant chains tend to develop a cult status, but can be a huge letdown when you realize the food is just the same cheap junk you find everywhere.
I don't know if it's the beautifully simple design scheme, the psuedo truck stop atmosphere, the food, or all of the above, but Waffle House is actually all that it's cracked up to be.
Strangely enough, when I hit Waffle House the last thing on my mind is waffles—I'm there for the hash browns. In a golden brown hockey puck form next to some eggs, or in any number of bewildering sizes and combinations. The uniform ribbons of potato are usually browned perfectly on one side and not at all on the other, then mixed together if you're going with a plate rather than a puck.
I ordered mine "smothered, covered and diced" (onions, tomatoes, cheese) but you can also have your hash browns "chunked" (ham), "peppered" (jalapenos), "capped" (mushrooms), "topped" (slathered in chili) and/or "country" (drowning in sausage gravy). I'm thinking a "We Try Every Combination of Hash Browns at Waffle House" post might be in order.
My favorite thing about the menu—especially during a hangover situation, when you always want everything—is the endless ordering possibilities. You can order a meal of eggs, waffles, meat, biscuits, gravy, hash browns, juice and coffee for a set price, or go "a la carte" with triple hash browns "all the way" and a chili cheeseburger with a slab of "city ham" on the side. Then maybe some biscuits and gravy, and a slice of pecan pie for dessert. Don't worry about the price, since everything on the menu hovers around $1.85.

broadstream necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 72 diseños de 22 diseñadores freelance.
The idea behind what we are looking for is to take the business name, BroadStream Media, and portray that title in a symbolic form using a series of shapes and/or pixelation in blues, greens, yellows, reds, oranges, blacks and whites. The logo, especially the symbol, needs to be representative for the kind of business we are offering, which is high-end video production, video & TV repurposing, and internet marketing.
BroadStream Media
Company name is BroadStream Media. I would like the name to appear just like that, case sensitive or if not possible, all caps is fine. The "Media" can be located underneath, next to, or offset from BroadStream. The colors can be blue, yellow, green, orange and red, or any combination of them. Black can always be used somewhere on something. I will also need the logo to be bleached white for watermarking purposes.
I also need to create a stand alone symbol that will integrate with my company name. The symbol should represent the idea of broadcasting and streaming media with a series of swooshes or circles or ovals or pixelated squares or a combination of them. The logo will be used to brand video production pieces, documentaries, video players, letter head, business cards, and other marketing materials. The main thing is to really develop a brand symbol that can be used and will be widely recognized.
- Company name with hi-tech symbol representing broadcasting, streaming media.
- Stand alone symbol (same as symbol above)
- multicolor logo and symbol
- bleached logo for watermarking
- names of all font types and programs used to create logo
- mascots
- something that looks anything like anyone elses logo (obviously :-)

Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec-Monfa or simply Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (24 November 1864 – 9 September 1901) was a French painter, printmaker, draughtsman and illustrator whose immersion in the colourful and theatrical life of Paris in the late 1800s yielded a collection of exciting, elegant and provocative images of the modern and sometimes decadent life of those times. Toulouse-Lautrec – along with Cézanne, Van Gogh and Gauguin – is among the most well-known painters of the Post-Impressionist period. In a 2005 auction at Christie's auction house, a new record was set when La blanchisseuse, an early painting of a young laundress, sold for US$22.4 million. asdf asf
Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec-Monfa was born at the Hotel du Bosc in Albi, Tarn in the Midi-Pyrénées region of France, the firstborn child of Comte Alphonse de Toulouse-Lautrec-Monfa and Adèle Tapié de Celeyran. He was therefore a member of an aristocratic family (descendants of the Counts of Toulouse and Lautrec and the Viscounts of Montfa, a village and commune of the Tarn department of southern France). A younger brother was born on 28 August 1867, but died the following year.
After the death of his brother his parents separated and a nanny took care of Henri.[2] At the age of eight, Henri went to live with his mother in Paris where he drew sketches and caricatures in his exercise workbooks. The family quickly realised that Henri's talent lay in drawing and painting. A friend of his father, Rene Princeteau, visited sometimes to give informal lessons. Some of Henri's early paintings are of horses, a speciality of Princeteau, and a subject Lautrec revisited in his 'Circus Paintings'.
In 1875 Henri returned to Albi because his mother recognised his health problems. He took thermal baths at Amélie-les-Bains and his mother consulted doctors in the hope of finding a way to improve her son's growth and development.
Toulouse-Lautrec was drawn to Montmartre, the area of Paris famous for its bohemian lifestyle and the haunt of artists, writers, and philosophers. Studying with Bonnat placed Henri in the heart of Montmartre, an area he rarely left over the next 20 years. After Bonnat took a new job, Henri moved to the studio of Fernand Cormon in 1882 and studied for a further five years and established the group of friends he kept for the rest of his life. At this time he met Émile Bernard and Van Gogh. Cormon, whose instruction was more relaxed than Bonnat's, allowed his pupils to roam Paris, looking for subjects to paint. In this period Toulouse-Lautrec had his first encounter with a prostitute (reputedly sponsored by his friends), which led him to paint his first painting of prostitutes in Montmartre, a woman rumoured to be called Marie-Charlet.
With his studies finished, in 1887 he participated in an exposition in Toulouse using the pseudonym "Tréclau", an anagram of the family name 'Lautrec'. He later exhibited in Paris with Van Gogh and Louis Anquetin.[2] The Belgian critic Octave Maus invited him to present eleven pieces at the Vingt (the Twenties) exhibition in Brussels in February. Vincent van Gogh's brother, Theo bought 'Poudre de Riz' (Rice Powder) for 150 francs for the Goupil & Cie gallery.

Colorado's Free Fishing Weekend is scheduled for June 7-8. Anglers of all ages can fish without a license anywhere in the state that weekend.
Many states allow free fishing during one or two weekends each year in an effort to encourage more people to discover and enjoy one of the most popular of all outdoor activities. According to a recent survey by Southwick Associates, fishing is not only a popular recreational activity in Colorado, it is a major economic driver for the state, contributing over $1.9 billion each year to Colorado's economy.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife reminds the public that although a license is not required that weekend, all other rules and regulations will apply. Anglers should consult the 2014 Colorado Fishing Brochure for specific regulations and restrictions for the waters they'll be fishing.

This video, of a big-ass alligator eating a big-ass snake, comes from yesterday's round one action in the PGA Championship, at Kiawah Island. NBD. Happens all the time. Back in April at the Heritage Classic in Hilton Head, the gators were actually threatening the caddies. Gator Golf is not nearly as much fun as those old '90s commercials made it seem.

They're well made and the color was as I expected, BUT the front passenger and both rear passenger mats are just an inch or so too long, and do not fit well under the powered front seats or around the tracks. Almost unusable and will be reserved only for carpet protection during bad weather... when I generally drive one of the more utilitarian cars in any case.
Install Time: Under 30 minutes
These floor mats really look great in my Mini Cooper. Fit perfectly & the black & red matches perfectly.
