Remember To Be On The Lookout Tomorrow.St. Joseph's Church and Complex is a historic church in San Francisco, California. The 1913 city landmark, one of a handful of vacant churches in San Francisco, stands three stories tall on the southwest corner of Howard and 10th streets. It was forced to close when the 1989 earthquake damaged it to the point of being seismically unsound. For the next two decades, transients and drug addicts broke in, slept there and trashed it. Then in 2009, a real estate group called The Polaris Group, bought it for an undisclosed sum and brought it back from the dead. St. Joseph's Church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. The Lion's Den's first retail facility was founded in 1971 in Columbus, Ohio, and since then they have expanded to over 45 locations throughout the country. From the very beginning, The Lion's Den has built its reputation on quality products and low prices. By treating our customers with dignity and respect we have come to form a loyal relationship with our patrons. All of their stores maintain the very highest standard in customer service and professionalism. Their courteous sales staff is always available to answer any of your shopping questions or help you decide on that perfect gift for someone special. At first I thought this was some sort of vertical standing speaker, but upon further review I think it's an air purifier and that round thing is the fan intake? Yes, no? Sometimes people think the Black German Shepherd is a different breed to the German Shepherd. This is not true. All German Shepherd puppies are either born black, gray or white and can change color as they grow. Their true coat color can usually be determined at about 8 weeks of age. Black German Shepherd puppies are born black and will stay black through adulthood. So, if you are looking for a solid Black German Shepherd puppy, you will want to get one at this age, and not before, in order to be sure it is indeed a solid black color. The color does not affect its temperament; the Black German Shepherd is just as loyal, alert, active and intelligent as the standard variety and is not predisposed to aggression.
Sure, you probably won't have too much trouble finding this spot outside a tappas bar, but if you really want to impress me, find find this spot on the cobblestone roadway. Of course, the iconic hat of the 1920's Jazz Age was the cloche, which is French for “bell.” Understand that not everyone can pull off this look. You needed to have a small head and a short “bobbed” haircut. These close-fitting hats were worn low over the eyebrows making visibility difficult. Women walked with their chins up and eyes cast down creating an air of conceitedness or feminine independence. The brims of the hats were so slight that the New York Times called them “an apology for a brim.” Starting in 1924, when cloches were readily established as the hat style, brims were a mere 2 inches at most. Some curled up, some angled out like a mini visor, and still others pointed down. By the end of the decade brims were non existent. FRIDAY FLICK: And bear with me for a little while, as Assembly is a Chinese film (just turn on the English subtitles) and trust me, it's an awesome fucking movie.

Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta.Whipped cream is an aerated colloid produced when air is incorporated into cream containing at least 35% fat. During whipping, partially coalesced fat molecules create a stabilized network which traps air bubbles. The resulting colloid is roughly double the volume of the original cream. If, however, the whipping is continued, the fat droplets will stick together destroying the colloid and forming butter. Lower-fat cream does not whip well, while higher-fat cream produces a more stable foam. Whipped topping normally contains some mixture of partially hydrogenated oil, sweeteners, distilled water, and stabilizers and emulsifiers added to prevent syneresis, similar to margarine instead of the butter fat in the cream used in whipped cream. Looking to get warmed up for the more difficult challenges that lie ahead? Well find this thick white pole she's warming up to. Grand Princess is a Grand-class cruise ship owned by Princess Cruises, and built in 1998 with hull number 5956, at a cost of approximately $450 million. She was the largest and most expensive passenger ship ever built at the time, and was the flagship in the Princess Cruises fleet until the new Royal Princess took that title in June 2013. The Grand class consists of several series of sister ships, most of which were built by Fincantieri in Monfalcone and Trieste, northern Italy. The Skywalkers nightclub is a signature element of Princess Cruises' ships in the Grand class and derived classes. The nightclub either overhangs the stern of the ship, in the Grand and Caribbean classes, or is located just aft of the funnel, as in the Gem and Crown classes. A motorcycle fairing is a shell placed over the frame of some motorcycles, especially racing motorcycles and sport bikes, with the primary purpose to reduce air drag. The secondary functions are the protection of the rider from airborne hazards and wind-induced hypothermia and of the engine components in the case of an accident. Harley guys are going to find this one easy: which Harley model has this batwing fairing?
Well. Shit. I didn't expect it would be that simple. So here's a more difficult one, specifically aimed towards car you guys. I have no idea what kind of car she's riding in, but I'm pretty sure the warning sticker tell me it's got gull wing doors. That, plus the car's center console should point you in the right direction.

Do so at your own risk, Albert Panello, senior director of product management and planning at Xbox, told GameSpot at the Tokyo Game Show. "We don't support vertical orientation; do it at your own risk," he warned. Then, he clarified: "It wouldn't be a cooling problem, we just didn't design the drive for vertical operation. Because it's a slot loading drive, we didn't design it for both." Textron is an American global aerospace, defense, security and advanced technologies industrial conglomerate.

You know, try as I might I just can't figure out what book she's reading. Is it me, or do the credits on the back cover look like movie credits? The Americans with Disabilities Act is often mistaken for a building code, when it is in fact a civil rights act. The public accommodations and commercial facility portion of the ADA became effective on January 26, 1992. With the passing of this legislation, additional responsibilities have been placed on building owners and managers. The Act includes an elevator exemption that does not require the owner to install an elevator in a facility that is being altered if it is less than three stories, or less than 3,000 square feet per story. Buildings not covered by this exemption are a shopping center or mall, the professional office of a health care provider, a hotel, a terminal, depot or other station used for specified public transportation, or an airport passenger terminal.
Some art. A park bench. A small store. Can you find where the three of these things come together? In 1998, Sony Corporation had its biggest product recall in history when it had to recall 700,000 video cameras after customers discovered the product inadvertently boasted ‘X-ray' capabilities. The video cameras were equipped with night vision, infra-red technology that allowed users to take pictures in dark. However when the infra-red lens was used in daylight it was able to see through certain clothes, revealing tattoos, underwear and body parts underneath. It primarily worked on dark colored, thin clothing like swimsuits, as the degree of transparency was due to how well the fabric absorbed infra-red light waves. myfreecams.com is the coolest webcam site on the web. definitely NSFW.

Short, Sweet, and Tasteless. Yep, That's Right... It's Tasteless Tuesday."Ernie, I have been reading your site since I was a young Marine many moons ago. I love the site and been addicted to it since the first time I read. Lately I have found your tasteless Tuesdays pretty good and figured I could add something to it. After getting out of the Corps I went to EMT school. I thought that it was a respectable and rewarding job, and I liked the fact that I would have the power to light 'em up. My story starts with my partner and I on a normal day. We have worked together for a few years and of the thousands of calls we had run together this one took the cake. It started as a normal day, running the same mundane bullshit calls. These calls being shortness of breath, high blood pressure, you name it. It may be a huge deal to that person, but to us it wasn't. We wanted a test. You know the bus full of hemophiliac nuns falling off a cliff and into a glass factory. Shit like that. Well were doing a post move; going from one part of the city to another when the call of all calls came in. Dispatch came over the radio to give us our code 3. We were kind of confused when the only information they gave us was that it was a trauma and that we were to look at our pager for the rest of the information about the call. So I light it up and head in the direction of the call. Then the pager goes off and my partner started to read. As he read the pager he began to laugh uncontrollably. He handed me the pager and told me to read it, that I was not going to believe my eyes. Sure as shit I couldn't. It read " code-3, trauma- penis in padlock." I about shit myself and almost crashed. At this point it became personal. I put the hammer down and we were on our way just below ludicrous speed. As we start heading up the street, we see the big red house marker (fire truck) sitting on the street. We get out and walk to the back to get our gear. The whole time relishing the smell of brakes and transmission. I look toward the front door and I see a firefighter walking out and he is trying to hold back a smile. I ask him whats going on in there and the only thing he can mutter is that we just needed to see it. We park the gurney and go inside. To what do my wondering eyes gaze upon? A completely naked man laying on the couch on the verge of hallucination. When we asked to see the padlock in question he rolled over and showed us. I couldn't believe it. This was no ordinary lock. This was one of those industrial padlocks you use on your storage units. One of those disc locks. He had slid it all the was to the base of his penis. He started it at the tip and it became uncomfortable so he kept sliding it down. At this point, his member had grown roughly to the diameter of a beer can and looked like it was going to burst apart. This being because the opening of the lock was only about an inch and a half wide and once the blood went it, it wasn't coming back out. The color it turned was something that I had never seen on a human body. It looked as if you took and purple and black crayon and mashed them together. After a few seconds of thinking, "man, that has to hurt" and trying not to laugh, a somewhat logical thought crossed my mind. Where the fuck is the key? Turns out, it was 70 miles away with his wife. Now we get the back story. He had cheated on his wife, and to show that he wouldn't cheat on her anymore, he slapped this thing on like some sort of chastity cock ring. So my partner calls the wife and asks if she can bring us the key. No surprise she said no and that for all she cares it can just fall off, and she was going to lose the key. Only thing we can do now is get this man some help. We get him on the gurney and start to wheel him outside. The whole time his friend has his camera out and it yelling how funny this shit is and that he's putting this on youtube. I've looked for the video and can't find it. Now the questions comes up of where to take this guy. Trauma center? Somewhere with a urology specialist? The nearest hospital? It's decided that we are going to the nearest hospital, and we put him in the back and are off like greased lightning. The nearest hospital is about 10 minutes drive normally, but lights, sirens, and diesel fuel, we got there in three. On the way to the hospital I call in the hospital and let them know what we are on our way with and advise them that we are going to need a locksmith. The doctor blows me off as usual, and we arrive at the back door of the hospital. We wheel him in to a room and a doctor pulls back the covers on our patient. The first words out of his mouth were, "call a locksmith." Dumbass. We transfer our patient to the hospital bed and I take the gurney out to the rig. I clean up the back, and make up the gurney. I tell my partner we aren't leaving till we see what happens. He might have to be transferred, and since we were there, we could do it. I jump in the driver seat and my partner begins to write his report. Ten minutes later Mr. Locksmith shows up. I ask if he knows what he was called for and of course he has no clue. So I hand him a pair of gloves and give him a smirk. Boy is he in for a shock. We follow him in laughing between ourselves and show him where to go. When he sees the lock, and its position, he informed the staff that this was the hardest lock to break into, and he would be back. Here I'm thinking this guys got a special lock picking kit he is going to go get. Nope. He came back with a hammer, vice grips, and Flathead screw driver and a power drill with extra bits. My partner has to go outside when he sees the tools. The locksmith then goes to work. I applaud this man, because he treated the situations like it was another day breaking into a lock. He starts with a small drill bit to work on the tumblers. During this stage we all forget that two metals rubbing together make heat. The patient goes into a panic and screams like a wild banshee. One of the nurses grab some water and doused him. My partner and I grab some syringes full of saline and keep the area cool while the locksmith goes back to work. After ten minutes of the small bit, its time to really open this lock up. He goes for the big bit. He starts to drill again, working the drill up to speed when the drill bit bites into the lock. At this point, there are about eight people standing around watching and all had the same reaction. Doubled over in horror of what just happened. I seriously though he had ripped it off. Now the patient is whaling like a air raid siren. The locksmith is nauseous, and has to walk away for a moment. A minute or so later, we are ready to get back to work. The locksmith though, puts the lock into the pair of vice grips and told the patient to hang on as tight as he could. My partner and I resumed our cooling measures. It took another few minutes, and a couple more close calls and he was finally through the lock. He grabbed the screwdriver and with a flick of his wrist it was open. The doctor slid off the lock. At this point we figured that blood would beginning to circulate again. We were wrong. After ten minutes more the thing looked the same. At that point we left. We never found out what had happened. I don't think it was good though." -- Jesse
Newport, originally introduced in 1957 by the Lorillard Tobacco Company, is a brand of menthol cigarettes owned by R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company. Newports comprise about 35 percent of menthol cigarette sales in the U.S. Newports have gained a commanding share of the African-American market; a 2005 survey stated that 49.5% of all cigarette sales to African Americans were Newport cigarettes. Newport is now the second best selling cigarette brand in the United States, trailing only Altria's Marlboro brand. The Newport brand also includes a non-menthol cigarette introduced in the early 2000s. On the box, the words "Menthol Box" for shorts and "Menthol Box 100s" for 100s were replaced simply with "Cigarettes". We've done enough of these for me to be reasonably sure this photo was taken somewhere along the Folsom Street Fair, but I can't figure out exactly where. Can you help me out? I'd like to untie these knots before any circulation gets cut off. Prisoner of war Jeremiah Denton declared his loyalty to the U.S. government during a 1966 interview for what was supposed to be a propaganda film. But his enraged captors missed his more covert message: "T-O-R-T-U-R-E," blinked into the camera in Morse code, a dispatch that would alert the U.S. military to the conditions he endured. Denton, who would survive 7 1/2 years confined in a tiny, stinking, windowless cell at the infamous "Hanoi Hilton" and other camps before his release in 1973, died of heart problems Friday in Virginia Beach at age 89, according to his grandson Edward Denton.

Choking back tears, he used his moment in the spotlight to honor someone else - his mother. Icehouse was Americas first domestic ice beer when it was introduced in 1993. Icehouse is ice brewed below freezing resulting in the formulation of ice crystals and a bold, never watered-down taste that you enjoy each time you drink an ice-cold Icehouse. It has a dark golden appearance and satisfying malt character without a sweet flavor that is typical of other high ABV products. Introduced in June 2012, Icehouse Edge is an ice lager/malt liquor that is 8.0% alcohol by volume. The German Shepherd and the Belgian Malinois are often mistaken for each other due mostly to their similar color and builds. There are however, differences in their physical makeups and in their dispositions and natures that play a big role in how well they will adapt and fit in to different lifestyles. The Belgian Malinois is a somewhat smaller dog than the German Shepherd and has a lighter structure. Their height is generally between 24-26 inches and their weight range is between 60-65 lbs. Their coats are most commonly fawn, red or dark brown. The Belgian Malinois has a much more adaptable nature than the German Shepherd allowing them to adjust to many different environments and lifestyles. This means that they can live in smaller living spaces as long as they are properly exercised.
Well to be honest, the thought that prices would very so much from one locale to anothert didn't really occur to me, but basically I was shooting for Cheddars as a whole.

Rainier Brewing Company was a Seattle, Washington, company that brewed Rainier Beer, a popular brand in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Although Rainier was founded in 1884, the Seattle site had been brewing beer since 1878. The beer is no longer brewed in Seattle, nor is the company owned locally. In the late 1990s, the company was sold to Stroh's, then to Pabst Brewing Company, though Miller contract brews most of Pabst's beers. The Rainier Brewing Company was closed by Pabst in 1999 and sold. |

Insert Your Favorite Title Here.Diamonds are renowned for their ability to transmit light and sparkle so intensely. We often think of a diamond's cut as shape (round, heart, oval, marquise, pear), but a diamond's cut grade is really about how well a diamond's facets interact with light. Precise artistry and workmanship are required to fashion a stone so its proportions, symmetry and polish deliver the magnificent return of light only possible in a diamond. A diamond's cut is crucial to the stone's final beauty and value. And of all the diamond 4Cs, it is the most complex and technically difficult to analyze. The cushion cut diamond combines a square cut with rounded corners, much like a pillow. This classic cut has been around for almost 200 years, and for the first century of its existence was the most popular diamond shape. The A590 is a trunk road in southern Cumbria, in the north-west of England. It runs north-east to south-west from M6 junction 36, through the towns of Ulverston and Barrow-in-Furness to terminate at Vickerstown on Walney Island. The road is a mixture of dual carriageway and single carriageway, with the section east of Low Newton, Cumbria to the M6 being mainly dual. The road is the main route for tourists entering the southern Lake District. It has often humorously been described as "the longest cul-de-sac in the world".

Believe It Or Not, Things Are Almost Starting To Get Back To Normal.The Ford Escape is a compact crossover vehicle sold by Ford since 2000 over three generations. Ford released the original model in 2000 for the 2001 model year -- a model jointly developed and released with Mazda of Japan -- who took a lead in the engineering of the two models and sold their version as the Mazda Tribute. Mainstream production of the first generation Escape/Tribute ended in late 2006. Second generations of the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, and Mazda Tribute were released in 2007 for the 2008 model year, but mostly restricted to North America. Ford released a third generation in 2012 for the 2013 model year, again, limited to North America. In 2015, Ford Motor Company sold a record high of 306,492 Ford Escapes. Similar to wrist watches the hip flask began to appear in the form it is recognized today in the 18th century, initially used by members of the gentry. However, less compact versions had been in production for several centuries. Notably, in the Middle Ages, there are several accounts of gutted fruit being used to store liquor. During the 18th century, women boarding docked British warships would smuggle gin into the ship via makeshift flasks, created from pig's bladders and hidden inside their petticoats. Following the act of prohibition in 1920s America, the state of Indiana banned the sale of cocktail shakers and hip flasks. Antique hip flasks, particularly those made of silver, are now sought-after collector's items, while most modern flasks are made from stainless steel. Some modern flasks are made of plastic so as to avoid detection by metal detectors. Here's a terrific two part challenge: First you have to translate it, then you have to find it.

"The world is your oyster" is a quote from Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor. "Falstaff: I will not lend thee a penny. Pistol: Why then the world's mine oyster, Which I with sword will open. Falstaff: Not a penny." The original implication of the phrase is that Pistol is going to use violent means (sword) to steal his fortune (the pearl one finds in an oyster). We inherit the phrase, absent its original violent connotation, to mean that the world is ours to enjoy. With all of this Trump talk about building a wall to keep people from heading north, I wonder how many people are still heading south.... South of the Border, as it were. Can you show where?
Oh, and what the hell kind of vacuum cleaner is this? Most sources say that the clementine orange came to exist because of accidental hybridization, with the first fruits discovered by Brother Clément Rodier (after whom the fruit was named in French and then English) in the garden of his orphanage in Misserghin, Algeria. However, there are claims it originated in China much earlier; one source describes it as nearly identical to the Canton mandarin widely grown in the Guangxi and Guangdong provinces in China. The clementine is not always easy to distinguish from varieties of mandarin oranges. As such, it should not be confused with similar fruit such as the satsuma or honey sweet orange, or other popular varieties. |

Holy Shit, We're More Than Halfway Through March Already.Fairy is a brand of washing-up liquid produced by Procter & Gamble at their West Thurrock factory, in England, launched in 1950. Fairy liquid is traditionally green, prompting the well-known advertising jingle "Now hands that do dishes can feel as soft as your face with mild green Fairy Liquid". As of 2015, Fairy is sold in most parts of Europe, although regional names vary. Fairy liquid is available in a variety of colour and scent combinations. Fairy was released onto the Australian market in 2011 and is quickly growing to become one of the most popular choices available within the country. Fairy is also sold in Germany; in 2000 it was briefly renamed Dawn -- the brand used in the United States market -- but after sharply declining sales due to an unfamiliar brand, the Fairy name was revived in 2002. In Sweden, Fairy is branded as Yes, and in the Netherlands it is marketed as Dreft. Loratadine, sold under the brand name Claritin among others, is a medication used to treat allergies including hay fever and hives. In 1998, in an unprecedented action, the American insurance company Anthem petitioned the FDA to allow loratadine and two other antihistamines to be made available over the counter while it was still under patent; the FDA granted the request, which was not binding on manufacturers. It is also available in combination with pseudoephedrine, a decongestant, and marketed as Claritin-D.

Maleficent is the main villain of Walt Disney's 1959 film Sleeping Beauty. She is characterized as the "Mistress of All Evil" who, after not being invited to a christening, curses the infant Princess Aurora to "prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and die" before the sun sets on Aurora's sixteenth birthday. Now should Maleficent need to get her carriage repaired, she would most likely take it to D&D Auto Body, which let's be honest, isn't all that much of a challenge to find. So instead I'm going to ask you to take me for a stroll on this boardwalk. The Miser is a five-act comedy in prose by the French playwright Molière. It was first performed on September 9, 1668, in the theatre of the Palais-Royal in Paris. The play was first produced when Molière's company was under the protection of Louis XIV himself. It was loosely based on the Latin comedy Aulularia by Plautus, from which many incidents and scraps of dialogue are borrowed, as well as from contemporary Italian farces. if you're interested, you can still buy the Czech version of the play -- titled Lakomec -- here. |

Two Irishmen Walk Out Of A Bar. Hey, It Could Happen.A Irishman, Englishman and a black guy are all in the maternity ward. The doctor comes through with congratulations to them all, explaining that they are all the proud new fathers of baby sons. However he says, there has been a problem. "We were really busy, and somehow we have managed to get your three sons mixed up." In order to sort the situation out the doctor suggests they draw lots to see who gets first choice. The result is that the Irishman gets first choice. The Doctor takes the Irishman through to the three babies. "I'll take that one," he says pointing to the little black child. "Hold on," says the doctor, "that's obviously not your son, he's as brown as a chocolate bar and both you and your wife are white." "I know," replies the Irishman, "but one of the other two is English, and I'm just not prepared to take that risk." An Irishman was flustered not being able to find a parking space in a large mall's parking lot. "Lord," he prayed, "I can't stand this. If you open a space up for me, I swear I'll give up drinking me whiskey, and I promise to go to church every Sunday." Suddenly, the clouds parted and the sun shone on an empty parking spot. Without hesitation the Irishman said, "Never mind,I found one."
Normally I try to keep the FRIDAY FLICKS contained to YouTube because they're clean, easy and pop-up free, but there's been a disturbing trend of shitty copies of movies making their way online lately. For example, if I wanted to feature Leprechaun in the Hood (with Ice T!) all of the copies I can find have this shitty grid pattern. (one and two -- this happens for almost all movies uploaded between October and November of last year, and belonging to 'named' accounts. So as an alternative -- and make sure your popup blockers are turned on -- you can check out 2000's Leprechaun in the Hood [download] or 1997's Leprechaun in Space [download]. Young Schmitty was taking confession, when he told the Irish priest that he was having impure thoughts about his sister. "Is this a sin, Father?" he asked. The priest nodded and said, "Yes Schmitty, indeed it is a sin...Look at the two beautiful brothers you have." myfreecams.com is the coolest webcam site on the web. definitely NSFW. |

No Dice, PICC Line Stays In Until Tomorrow.A water stop on a railroad is a place where trains stop to replenish water; the term originates from the times of steam engines when large amounts of water were essential. During the very early days of steam locomotives, water stops were necessary every 7–10 miles and consumed much travel time. With the introduction of tenders -- a special car containing water and fuel -- trains could run 100–150 miles without a refill. Many water stops along new railways evolved into new settlements. When a train stopped for water and was positioned by a water tower, the boilerman swung out the spigot arm over the water tender and "jerked" the chain to begin watering. This gave rise to a 19th-century slang term "Jerkwater town" for towns too insignificant to have a regular train station. In 1871 Thomas Lipton of Glasgow, Scotland used his small savings to open his own shop, and by the 1880s the business had grown to more than 200 shops. Lipton began travelling the world for new items to stock in this store. One such item was tea, since sales had doubled from £40 million from the late 1870s to £80 million by the mid-1880s. However, he believed the price was far too high, so in 1890 he purchased his own tea gardens in Ceylon, now Sri Lanka, and packaged and sold the first Lipton tea. Staying true to this vision, he arranged packaging and shipping at low costs and sold his tea in packets by the pound, half pound, and quarter pound, with the advertising slogan: "Direct from the tea gardens to the teapot." Lipton teas were an immediate success in the United States. What the hell is that red thing on the counter? A coffee maker? A soda fountain?
A keyless entry system is an electronic lock that controls access to a building or vehicle without using a traditional mechanical key. The term keyless entry system originally meant a lock controlled by a keypad located at or near the driver's door, that required pressing a predetermined numeric code for entry. One of the first introductions was in 1980 on the Ford Thunderbird, Mercury Cougar, Lincoln Continental Mark VI, and Lincoln Town Car, which Ford called Keyless Entry System (later renamed SecuriCode). It was a keypad on the driver-side exterior door just above the door handle. These systems, having evolved into a hidden touch-activated keypad, are still available on certain Ford or Lincoln models. Now do your patriotic duty and find these American flags! The flag of the People's Republic of China is a red field charged with five golden stars. The design features one large star, with four smaller stars in a semicircle set off towards the fly (the side farthest from the flag pole). The red represents the communist revolution; the five stars and their relationship represent the unity of the Chinese people under the leadership of the Communist Party of China. I have no idea what just two smaller stars stands for. |

Off To The Doc To Find Out Whether Or Not My PICC Line Gets Removed Today.Motorboating is defined as the act of placing one's head between a woman's breasts and making the sound of a motorboat with one's lips whilst moving the head from side to side. I used to think it was something recent, most notably this scene from Wedding Crashers, but it turns out its roots go back to a spoofed American Express commercial from 1980. Powell's Books is a chain of bookstores in Portland, Oregon, and its surrounding metropolitan area. Powell's headquarters, dubbed Powell's City of Books, claims to be the largest independent new and used bookstore in the world. Powell's City of Books is located in the Pearl District on the edge of downtown and occupies a full city block between NW 10th and 11th Avenuea. It contains over 68,000 square feet, about 1.6 acres of retail floor space. CNN rates it one of the ten "coolest" bookstores in the world. The inventory for its retail and online sales is over four million new, used, rare, and out-of-print books. Powell's buys around 3,000 used books a day. KitchenAid is an American home appliance brand owned by Whirlpool Corporation. The company was started in 1919 by The Hobart Corporation to produce stand mixers; the "H-5" was the first model introduced. The company faced stiff competition as rivals moved into this emerging market, and introduced its trademarked silhouette in the 1930s with the model "K", the work of designer Egmont Arens. The KitchenAid standard design has remained relatively unchanged since then, and the silhouette has since been made a registered trademark with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. In 1997 the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art selected the KitchenAid stand mixer as an icon of American design. The Tragedy of Hamlet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare at an uncertain date between 1599 and 1602. Set in the Kingdom of Denmark, the play dramatises the revenge Prince Hamlet is called to wreak upon his uncle, Claudius, by the ghost of Hamlet's father, King Hamlet. Claudius had murdered his own brother and seized the throne, also marrying his deceased brother's widow. There's a lot of wisdom in Shakespeare's Hamlet Act I, Scene 3: "Neither a borrower nor a lender be; For loan oft loses both itself and friend, And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry. This above all- to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. Farewell. My blessing season this in thee!" Well, it looks like they've finished painting the outside of the New Star-Ell liquor store. |

A Tasteless Blast From The Past."Now, I'm a 32 year old guy, and I've taken my fair share of dumps in my life so it wasn't very difficult to tell something was wrong right away. Dropped trou, sat down, followed the urge to purge and was rewarded with a very unique shooting pain from down under. It wasn't so bad that I fell off the john, but it was bad enough that I took immediate notice. I gingerly finished my duties and reached for an extra large handful of tissue, not really knowing what to expect. Everyone, from time to time, experiences a nasty or messy bowel movement. The kind of dump where you feel like calling in the Hazmat team to handle the clean up. I was expecting something along these lines, maybe even some blood. I was prepared. I can handle gross, bloody messes. After all, with enough TP and some clean water everything ends up back to normal. So down I reach with a huge wad of white, fluffy Charmin anticipating the chore ahead, but as soon as I touched my ass I was practically knocked unconscious by the pain. Sharp, immediate all-consuming pain. After taking a moment to recover, I began gingerly cleaning up and discovered that my problem wasn't coming from the asshole, but just above it, and to the left. Sort of like a pimple, but unbelievably sensitive. "Ah shit, (no pun intended) I've got a zit on my left cheek," I thought. "Well, I'd better pop the little fucker." So I brace for the pain, grab either side and give a big squeeze expecting it to let go like a geyser. No such luck. All I got for my trouble was enough pain to make me see stars. Since I was clean and had been in the office bathroom for way too long at this point, I decided to just deal with it later and go back to work. The rest of the day passed without too much trouble, but I was constantly shifting around and uncomfortable. I figured after all the manipulation that morning that the little fucker plaguing my ass would come to a nice head and I could dispose of it when I got home. No such luck. What followed was three days of self-inflicted torture. The thing just kept getting bigger and bigger, and more and more painful. Several times I thought I had it beat. I could have sworn that I felt it pop a bit, but the surface remained unbroken and it would always fill back up. Eventually, after four days of pain, I had had enough. While taking a nice hot shower I got the bugger nice and big and, instead of trying to pop it, I grabbed the surface skin between my fingernails and RIPPED the sucker open! I was rewarded with an immediate and satisfying gush of nasty pus. It felt immediately better. I thought I'd beaten it. Man, was I wrong. For the next week, the damn thing just kept filling up. Sometimes heroically so. It was amazing, no matter how much I emptied it, it just kept filling back up. About this time I noticed something else very strange. I was at a party, and had eaten a big bowl of chili for lunch. The result was a massive case of gas that I didn't really want to release in a crowded group, but every time I'd feel it coming and bear down to keep it in, I'd feel a little tickle of gas escaping. This happened several times that night, and into the next day. I was beginning to think maybe something was seriously wrong. I really began to think so when after taking a fairly soft crap, I was amazed to find that shit was coming out of my pimple head!! But the only way that could be was if... OH MY GOD! THE FUCKER GOES ALL THE WAY THROUGH!! I felt sick. This was just too weird. I was defective. Genetically aberrant. I'd have to go through life shitting out of two holes. I called my doctor. Why is it that every time you've got something nasty wrong with you, your doctor's nurse has to be the cutest, youngest possible nurse in the state? Anyway, I tell little Miss Washington State my story and she, after giving me a look that says how nasty I am, puts me in a room to wait. In comes the doctor and asks for the story again. I ask him, so why the hell did I just tell it to the cute nurse? Something about procedure, he said. He then told me what the hell it was. It seems everyone is blessed by nature with several anal glands. These glands are internal versions of the pores on our skin, but go deeper. Usually, they don't cause anyone any problems and we go about our lives blissfully unaware of there existence. For an unfortunate few, like myself, they become infected. When this happens, they back up but instead of just resolving themselves internally, the sadistic little fuckers make for the surface and come burrowing out of your ass creating a tube connecting the outside world to your inside ass. This tube is a fistula. More good news, the only way to fix it is with surgery. More, more good news, it's not the kind of surgery where they simply give you a shot and stitch the hole closed. Oh no, that would be far too simple, for you see the entire length of the tube needs to be opened up and scraped raw so that it can heal closed from the inside out. Imagine starting a small tube about 5 inches inside your rectum. Run that tube perpendicularly away from your rectum for a couple of inches into your body, then begin to veer it out. Eventually it'll reach the surface, but might be several inches away from where your rectum becomes your asshole. Fun, huh? This entire tract that the tube takes needs to be sliced open. Basically, this amounts to having the doctors butterfly your ass open. Then they don't even have the decency to close you back up! You've got to heal closed on your own so as to not risk infection. I spent over a month with raw, oozing, butterflied ass tissue dripping nasty yellowish fluid, bleeding from time to time all over my shorts. I stuffed myself with gauss, panty liners and tape, but it would still seep through. I couldn't sit for over a week. When I could, I would trigger a new round of bleeding every time I sat down. I'm not even going to go into what it was like to take a shit under these conditions. Pure, condensed nasty. Eventually I just started going directly from the toilet to the shower. It saved at least 20 rolls of toilet paper. I'm fine now, but if it ever happens again I think I'll just take a Ferrari for a test drive and help myself to a nice, painless High Speed Flaming Death." ~ Matthew

Boy, This Spring Forward Shit Has Got me All Fucked Up.The Literature Major allows students to address fundamental questions about the nature, function, and value of literature in a broadly comparative context. Majors read and write about a wide variety of literary works across periods, genres, and national traditions. They investigate traditional and contemporary approaches to literary study, ancient and modern literary theory, and the relationship of literature to film and to other branches of the arts and sciences. The Literature Major offers students the freedom to construct a program of study that reflects their intellectual goals. All students planning to major in Literature should register with the Director of Undergraduate Studies, who will work with them to develop a coherent, well-focused sequence of courses suited to their individual interests. In Eastern Asian architecture, the hip-and-gable roof comprise a hip roof that slopes down on all four sides and integrates a gable on two opposing sides. It is usually constructed with two large sloping roof sections in the front and back respectively, while the two sides each are usually constructed with a smaller roof section. The style is of Chinese origin and has spread across Asia. The original style and similar styles are found in the traditional architecture of Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Mongolia, Tibet, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Kalmykia and among others. The Golden Retriever is a large-sized breed of dog bred as gun dogs to retrieve shot waterfowl such as ducks and upland game birds during hunting and shooting parties, and were named 'retriever' because of their ability to retrieve shot game undamaged. Golden Retrievers have an instinctive love of water, and are easy to train to basic or advanced obedience standards. They are a long-coated breed, with a dense inner coat that provides them with adequate warmth in the outdoors, and an outer coat that lies flat against their bodies and repels water. Golden Retrievers are well suited to residency in suburban or country environments. Although they need substantial outdoor exercise, they should be housed in a fenced area because of their instinctual tendency to roam. Any idea where this Golden Retriever roamed to?
Roofing is a skill that can takes years to master depending on what you want to do, but tarring a roof is a project that can easily be managed by the novice. This process is done to protect your roof from the elements, and it is usually applied to a flat roof because, unlike a slanted roof, the flat roof is exposed to all of the elements. The sun beats down on it for hours a day and rain can collect and hang around for weeks at a time because it does not drain off like it would on a slanted structure. You can apply roofing tar to a slanted roof if you want, but there typically is not much need. According to a report recently released by Atlas of Giving, after a stellar year of charitable donations in 2015, the outlook for this year is less than robust. In fact, U.S.-based giving could decrease by as much as 3.2% for a variety of reasons—including rising interest rates, a possible stock market correction, and continuing decline in employment compensation. But just because certain economic factors may have an impact on giving, this doesn't mean that you should put off your own charitable efforts. Can you show me where these two made their charitable contributions? Steven Raichlenis an American culinary writer, TV host, and most recently novelist. Raichlen created the TV show Barbecue University (aka BBQ U), which aired for four seasons from 2003 to 2006 on American Public Television. From 2008 to 2010 he hosted Primal Grill, again on American Public Television. Primal Grill focused on the "how-tos" of live fire cooking, employing different grills for each technique. In 2015, he created Project Smoke on public television, focusing on traditional and cutting-edge techniques in smoked food. Raichlen also hosts a French-language TV show called Le Maitre du Grill on Zeste in Quebec.

What's 36... 44... 56... 71... and 96? My Escalating Alanine Transaminase Levels.Not content with serving us dishes dressed with utterly unnecessary froths, foams and micro-herbs, top-end restaurants have developed a fondness for an even more irritating fad: the square plate. At long last, however, someone is standing up against this crockery calamity. William Sitwell, editor of Waitrose Kitchen magazine and sometime judge on Masterchef, has launched a one-man crusade against the scourge of squares invading both home and professional kitchens. “Square and rectangular plates,” he said, “are an abomination. Food should be served on round plates and not a right angle in sight. If you have square plates, now is the time to be bold and cast them out.” Tree pruning is a delicate process requiring skill and expertise, and is best performed by Certified Arborists who understand how best to trim and shape trees. This is especially true for palm trees, where one bad prune can lead to tree damage and possibly tree death. Rather than opting for what's known as a "hurricane cut", "10-2 cut" or "pineapple cut" with your palm trees, it is much better to leave the full palm tree crown intact, which preserves its natural beauty and helps it thrive throughout the year. Palm trees that have been subjected to hurricane cutting will often have their sensitive center core exposed to the elements, making them more likely to suffer from weather, disease or pest damage. The TSA allows through security only one quart-sized bag. So pack it wisely. Not all plastic quart size bags are created equal. You may know them as Ziploc bags or ziplock bags, but there are many brands available. There are two characteristics of a plastic bag for toiletries that could make or break your trip. Some quart bags are thin and easy to puncture. Others are thicker plastic and withstand stretching. Unless you plan to change bags during your trip, find one that is strong and can stretch out without tearing. Most “zip top” plastic bags seal when you press two plastic seams together. Some even change color when the bag is sealed properly. This is fine for tonight's leftovers, but for air travel it's less than ideal. When you're rushing to the airport at 4 AM it's so easy to miss the seal, and colors don't help in a dark hotel room. CAUTION: you are entering a Trump Area.

She becomes madly envious over the beauty of her stepdaughter, Princess Snow White, as well as the attentions of the Prince from another land; such love triangle element is one of Disney's changes to the story. This leads her to plot the death of Snow White and ultimately on the path to her own demise, which in the film is indirectly caused by the Seven Dwarfs. In the film, similar to the Brothers Grimm story, the Evil Queen is cold, cruel, and extremely vain, and obsessively desires to remain the "fairest in the land". + Sierra Nevada and hops go hand in hand.

They allow broken bones in the arm or leg to heal by holding them in place, and usually need to stay on for 4 and 12 weeks. Taking good care of your cast will help ensure a better recovery. Keep your arm or leg raised on a soft surface, such as a pillow, for as long as possible in the first few days. This will help any swelling to go down and will help the cast dry correctly. Don't get your cast wet. This will weaken it, and your bone will no longer be properly supported. You can use a plastic bag to cover up the cast when you have a bath or shower. Try using sticky tape or a rubber band to seal the bag at the top and bottom to make it as watertight as possible. In architecture, a gargoyle is a carved or formed grotesque with a spout designed to convey water from a roof and away from the side of a building, thereby preventing rainwater from running down masonry walls and eroding the mortar between. When not constructed as a waterspout and only serving an ornamental or artistic function, the correct term for such a sculpture is a grotesque, chimera, or boss. There are also regional variations, such as the hunky punk. Just as with bosses and chimeras, gargoyles are said to frighten off and protect those that it guards, such as a church, from any evil or harmful spirits. Can you find me this restaurant protected by a lion? So by now we've all seen this video of Lake Berryessa's Glory Hole Spillway running fuull blast.

The infinity mirror effect is produced whenever there are two parallel reflective surfaces which can bounce a beam of light back and forth an indefinite (theoretically infinite) number of times. The reflections appear to recede into the distance because the light actually is traversing the distance it appears to be traveling. Each additional reflection adds length to the path the light must travel before exiting the mirror. If the mirrors are not precisely parallel, but instead are canted at a slight angle, the "visual tunnel" will be perceived to be curved (off to one side) as it recedes into infinity. When studied using the principles of photographic optics, the series of repeating images forms the infinite mathematical surface known as Gabriel's Horn, or Torricelli's Trumpet, named in honor of Italian mathematician Evangelista Torricelli, who first studied it. |

It is typically worn by Arabs, as well as by some Mizrahi Jews and Kurds. It is commonly found in arid regions as it provides protection from sunburn, dust and sand. Its distinctive standard woven checkered pattern may have originated in an ancient Mesopotamian representation of either fishing nets or ears of grain, but the true origin of the pattern remains unknown.

Well, you guys did so well at helping me find this artist, that I decided to expand my art collection a little bit. Can you help me track down this new artist? Wearing sunglasses indoors seems like the obvious choice for managing light sensitivity or coping with fluorescent lights. The problem? It actually increases your sensitivity to light through a process called dark adaptation. Everyone has experienced dark adaptation – it's what happens when you leave a movie theater and the sun's brightness is overwhelming. Your eyes are so adjusted to being in the dark theater that when you step outside, light appears to be even brighter than it was when you went into the movie. Most people's eyes readjust fairly quickly after leaving a movie. People with chronic dark adaptation have extra-heightened light sensitivity all the time, and chronic dark adaptation is what happens when you wear sunglasses indoors too frequently. |

Today Is All You, Baby. All You. Some Had Multiples, Sorry I Couldn't Use Everybody.Hey Ernie, The first challenge: your home away from home is the CROSSROADS MOTEL on Central Ave in Albuquerque, NM. For all the Breaking Bad fans out there this is the "Chrystal Palace" where you can pick up some meth and a windy from Wendy. It is conveniently located across the street from a giant hospital, which you will probably need at some point during your stay. Hope you're feeling better! - John [Ernie says: multiple answers on this one, john was first to give breaking bad info] Ernie, when looking for your verification of the Encore entrance, I found this, she seems to be standing right outside the west walk-in entrance off South Las Vegas Blvd. Mark (SPC Army Separated) Hi Ernie. The three beverages in question are Shock Top Belgian White, Labbat Blue Light, and Twisted Tea. As always thanks for the hard work. Sorry to read about Ike. I've been there twice myself. BC in BC [Ernie says: sorry skip, that wasn't land shark or lemon shandy] Amy Danielle Sutterfield was at the Pep Boys located at 8521 Van Nuys Blvd, Panorama City, CA, although I don't see that flag in the window anymore. Rick Friday is saved I found it/her outside of one of Prague Czechoslovakia on Na Prikope (Street), maybe she is headed for one of my favorite beers from two Uncle Sam sponsored tours of Germany. I'l give you two streetviews to see both the Friday sign and the Public WC tower. The second view you can see the cafe with the canopy unrolled, but the distinct blue border above the canopy. Enjoy getting everything cleaned in one shot, Dennis [Ernie says: multiple answers, dennis was first] Ernie, The young lady sipping on a mimosa is sitting at The Daily Creative Food Co. In Miami, FL. The Google image is from 2015, before the store was open. The dark gray store front, flanked by the tan (left) and green (right) columns matches the original picture. -Fish [Ernie says: also couple of close guesses] And finally, your FRIDAY FLICK: "How could I write a letter without ink or paper? There is nobody I want to write to 'cause I hain't got no friends living as I know of. That Armsby is a lying drunken fellow. You know this, just as you know that I am constant in truth. Now, master, I can see what that Armsby is after, plain enough. Didn't he want you to hire him for an overseer? That's it. He wants to make you believe we're all going to run away and then he thinks you'll hire an overseer to watch us. He believes you are soft soap. He's given to such talk. I believe he's just made this story out of whole cloth, 'cause he wants to get a situation. It's all a lie, master, you may depend on't. It's all a lie." Also, he's a terrific actor but to me, Chiwetel Ejiofor is always going to be The Operative from Firefly. |

Final Suture Out. I Can Finally Bathe From The PICC Line Down.The formation of freckles is triggered by exposure to sunlight. The exposure to UV-B radiation activates melanocytes to increase melanin production, which can cause freckles to become darker and more visible. Freckles are predominantly found on the face, although they may appear on any skin exposed to the sun, such as arms or shoulders. Heavily distributed concentrations of melanin may cause freckles to multiply and cover an entire area of skin, such as the face. Freckles are rare on infants, and more commonly found on children before puberty. Upon exposure to the sun, freckles will reappear if they have been altered with creams or lasers and not protected from the sun, but do fade with age in some cases. A budget motel can be an epicenter of crime in a neighborhood. Problems at these "no-tell motels" can range from loud parties and public disorder to drug lab and prostitution operations. Unfortunately, it's easy for a small motel to slip into a spiral that will make it seedy and crime-ridden. Once a motel gains a troublesome reputation, it attracts a wide variety of criminal elements that drive out legitimate business. The absence of legitimate businesses presents more opportunity for disorder, and soon a local police department has to deal with a whole neighborhood enveloped in different types of crime. Personally, this looks like Murder Central, but can you find where my Home Away From Home is? Getting all that garden stuff -- tools, bags of mulch, plants -- from here to there doesn't have to be such a chore, thanks to the wide array of carts and utility wagons available. No two plants are exactly the same, and no two garden carts and utility wagons do exactly the same thing. And like many other tools and implements for the garden, what you like and need is very much a personal preference. Carts and wagons used to be classified by the number of wheels they had, but those categories have become more fluid as more flexible vehicles have become available. A flatbed utility cart has a large flat surface to move items, which makes it convenient for hauling awkward-size pieces. Well, today is Thursday, meaning tomorrow is Friday. That is, if you can find it, otherwise the remainder of the week is ruined. |
