Hmm, should show this to my Mom and see if she can rig something up to her bird feeders so the squirrels don't try to get to the seed. :P - Mol, Time Warping

It's the third largest mosque in the world, carefully just smaller than Mecca and Medina, and the only one of the three I may visit as a non-Muslim. And a challenge to photograph! I've taken probably thirty pictures of the Grand Mosque from the outside, and never liked a one of them, and I haven't loved any of the official photos either. It tends to look unreal, like an architect's rendering or a scale model, unless it is framed by something else. The photo above was taken from the car through the window with lots of distortion and reflection, the one below from the parking lot, and for now these are the best I can figure to do. - Cee Bee

"Good advice, I guess. In the end, I chose a Glendale clinic because it was close to home, offered "superior professionalism" and had an appointment time that worked for me. But I was a bit nervous on my way to see the doctor. What if I got rejected? Not that I've heard of that happening to anyone. The open secret is that it's a cinch to get a marijuana "recommendation" in California. A "recommendation" isn't a prescription, but it would allow me to visit a dispensary and buy my buds." - Thomas Hawk from Bookmarklet

Jason, you're not necessarily officially registered. You can get an ID card from the state but that's optional. Legally all you need is from the doctor, and presumably he/she follows confidentiality rules. If you're a member of a co-op that gets busted by the DEA, the feds would have your name, but there are plenty of places to go that don't record your info. That said, I'm for... more... - Lo

"I do believe that you can achieve more if you're willing to take risks," Lars said in a recent phone interview. "There's almost a total correlation between the amount of risk you're willing to take and then the amount of stuff you then potentially can get done." - Tom Stocky from Bookmarklet

"Many great writers of the 20th century (especially American writers) struggled with addictions to alcohol. Some believe that this may have contributed to their great artistic abilities, while others believe that the alcohol served as a medication for other problems in their lives. This is a list of the 15 greatest writers who were alcoholics." - Anna Haro from Bookmarklet

I have a hard time believing that their alcoholism attributed to their "greatness" or they're ability to write. However, I do think creative people are more prone to experiment with drugs of all kinds, including alcohol. However, based on what I've read, some of these authors seriously declined in their work once they became true alcoholics. - Jen (SquirrelGirl)

"If the Old Farmer's Almanac's prediction of a cold winter ahead is correct, at least one tree in Hampden will be snug against the blasts of wintry winds, plummeting temperatures and snow. Monday, while most folks celebrated the unofficial end of summer with a last dip at the beach, a walk in the woods or a backyard picnic, a group of Hampden knitters - young and old - were busy wrapping a flowering cherry tree on 36th Street in a knitted sweater." - Michelle Jones from Bookmarklet

The Hampden sweater tree is an example of an urban outdoor art movement that is called graffiti knitting, yarn bombing or yarnstorming. "It has been popularized in the U.S. by Knitta Please and is very popular in England," explained Caldwell, who was dressed in dark pants and a pink top emblazoned with the words: "Knit Happens In Hampden." - Michelle Jones

"Knitta Please"...*dead* - tinypants - Hagitha of FF

Eph -- Hehehe: "'Also,' he continued, 'your facial features are symmetrical to a tolerance of nearly .1 micrometers, except that the right side of your mouth is slightly higher than the left [see diagram 1], which is not noticeable when you smile and is therefore unimportant for my purposes.'" - Christopher A Carr
