Barrymore puts daughter on magazine cover
Drew's daughter Olive 2 months old
Landing on the cover of a national magazine isn't that typical for a two-month-old, but other than that, Drew Barrymore's keeping it traditional when it comes to raising daughter Olive.
The firstborn of Barrymore and her husband Will Kopelman, whom she married in June, made her debut on the cover of People magazine this week. Barrymore and Kopelman welcomed Olive September 26.
"I really wanted a wonderful traditional home for my kid," Barrymore, 37, told the magazine. "Will comes from a strong family, he provides a strong family ... It just makes me so emotional, because it's like a miracle."
That feeling of surging joy mixed with immense responsibility has caught Barrymore off-guard, but there's no doubt that she's fallen head-over-heels in love with Olive.
"You have the highest highs and yet you're facing the biggest fear of, 'How do I keep someone alive?,'" the actress said. "It's like the biggest crush I've ever had in my life!"

Comments On Oct 15, 2013:the black paint on the teeth was gone after the first ride, but I'm pretty sure this sprocket will last forever!!

Comments On Oct 02, 2013:no that impressed, on KTM it touches the chain guard and the paint finish comes off and start to look cheap quickly, as for wear nothing extra special over the metal SS rear i had before just allot lighter, i can see this lasting more than one chain

Comments On Sep 23, 2013:great sprocket, it's on the heavyside but you can't feel the difference when riding, I've got about 5 rides on it since installing, so far it's holding up really well.

Comments On Sep 08, 2013:Love it, I geared my bike pretty low with this, and it works great. After a year it shows normal minimal wear.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jul 20, 2013:Steel is the real deal boys and girls. Unless you are a pro and can really feel the bike flex and notice minor adjustments you will never notice a weight difference. I bought this because I ride a 450F and want my sprocket to last. I have ridden with this sprocket probably 10 times now and notice no unusual or excessive wear. I think and aluminum spocket would start to groove out. The quality is awesome and it looks cool. Make sure to use some blue loctite on your bolts. I had some loose bolts after first ride. Also, I noticed that the black color has a slightly dark dark green hue when looking at it up close.

Comments On Jul 07, 2013:Great price for a great quality sprocket. Installed easy and looks good. Will see how it holds up.

Comments On May 17, 2013:Have had on my CRF450 for awhile now. No visible wear whatsoever. Opted for the steel sprocket because this bike is used for trailriding, not racing, so a little added weight isn't a big deal when you get a stronger more durable product.

Comments On Mar 11, 2013:I ride the motocross tracks in So Cal about once a week and race about once a month. I have been riding since the late sixties (late bloomer I was 22) and have used every sprocket known to man-woman-child-teenager and magazine tester since the first issue of Dirt Rider. This sprocket has out performed all of them for durability and lasting appearance. Good weight for a steel sprocket. As for aluminum: I'm sure the pros can tell the difference (don't they get a free one every race) and I'm sure RMATV appreciates the repeat business. You can use the money you saved to buy the new rear tire we always need.
You can spend more but I doubt you can get better.

Comments On Feb 26, 2013:the sprocket looks like it will last since it still. i havent put it on yet but the only bad thing i have to say about it is that its not black.. its a dark gray. the pic on here is a little disleading. thats my only comlant.

Indiana has seen 13 confirmed adult flu-related deaths since November 1, and two pediatric deaths, according to the state's health department.
Arkansas has seven confirmed flu fatalities. Many of the hospitals are at capacity because of the flu or other illnesses, state health spokesman Ed Barham said.
South Carolina has counted 22 flu-related deaths this season, compared with one for all of 2011, according to the South Carolina Department of Health. From September 30 through January 5, the state saw 1,084 influenza-related hospitalizations, the department said.
In Illinois, Department of Public Health Director Dr. LaMar Hasbrouck said Wednesday that since October, six flu-related deaths of patients in intensive-care units have occurred.
"We have been and continue to see an increase in flu activity across the state. The flu strain that is predominately circulating this year is typically more severe, with more hospitalizations and deaths," Hasbrouck said. "From the beginning of October through the end of December we've seen almost 150 people admitted to hospital intensive care units with influenza like illness.
"This compares to last year at this time when there were only two ICU hospitalizations and no deaths."
In Michigan, there have been four pediatric deaths related to the flu, said Angela Minicuci, public information officer for the Michigan Department of Community Health.
And the North Dakota Department of Health is reporting 1,077 cases of flu in the state as of Wednesday -- a sharp increase from the 625 cases reported last week.
Dr. David Zich, internal medicine and emergency medicine physician at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago, said this is the worst flu season he's seen in his 12 years at his hospital, in terms of the concentration of patients.
Northwestern Memorial Hospital is on "bypass," which happens when it is beyond capacity because of an influx of patients, such as during flu season.
That means advanced-life support ambulances with patients who are stable are referred to the next closest hospital, no more than five minutes away, Zich said, and transfers are not accepted from outside hospitals. For everyone else, they are open for business.
"The majority of flu patients are sent home, with very little else done, so we can handle that," he said.
Why so many cases?
Zich theorizes that one reason there are so many flu cases is that the heart of the flu season coincided with the December holiday season, meaning many people were already sleep-deprived from parties and were more likely to get sick.
Those who went to gatherings of family or friends may have already begun to feel sick, and spread the virus to others. People are generally contagious the day before symptoms start, and for five days after becoming sick, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Last flu season was light, but this year has brought with it some "ominous signs," Fauci of the NIH said Tuesday.
Flu cases started going up early, toward the end of November and the beginning of December, he said.
"And it went up on a pretty steep trajectory," he said. "The last time we saw that happen that way was the flu season of 2003 and 2004, which turned out to be a bad flu season."
The type of flu that is going around is called H3N2, which is often linked to more serious disease compared to other flu varieties, Fauci said.
But there's good news: That type of flu matches up well to the vaccine that is being distributed and given out throughout the United States.
People may get more complications from this particular strain of H3N2, "which may make them ill for a longer period of time," Dr. Michael Jhung, medical epidemiologist in the influenza division at CDC, told CNN's Mary Snow.
"But symptoms typically last up to seven days for a normal infection, a noncomplicated infection with influenza," he said. "And we usually see that from year to year regardless of what strains are circulating."
In a "light" year, a few thousand people may still die, but a particularly serious year could see up to 49,000 deaths from the flu, Fauci said. "There's an average of about 200,000 hospitalizations and there's a lot of economic burdens."
Protect yourself
If you haven't gotten an annual flu vaccine, it's not too late, doctors say. To further protect yourself, try to avoid anyone who is sneezing and coughing, and wash your hands. Also, exercise and eat healthy foods, Zich said.

They're reacting on WBEN, sister-station and voice of the Sabres WGR Sportsradio 550, online, and amongst themselves.
Some of those fans are involved in hockey and figure skating activities at Northtown Center in Amherst.
Some say it was probably the right time to make a coaching change at First Niagara Center.
"It's just been a really long time since we've had ... a consistent, solid season, so it can't really be the players, can't really be anything else other than the one constant we've had is the coach," says one fan following her time figure skating.
Another fan says he's sorry to see Lindy Ruff go, but believes he was a great coach during his time with the Sabres. The fan also understands the Sabres had to make this coaching change.
"We need to keep the team moving in the right direction, and obviously that's not happening, so... you've got to make changes," says the fan.
In addition, anotherfan, Mike Demyan, says Ruff was a great coach, but it was time for a change.
"He just hasn't really fit the system the last few years. He's a defensive coach. The team used to be very defensive during their best years," he says.
Demyan also feels the next coach should focus on the Sabres' younger talent.

The hotel front desk is open from 8 AM-11 PM. Guests arriving after 11 PM can gain entry to the hotel by contacting the night attendant using the phone number on the front entrance to the hotel.
Guests wishing to use the high-speed Internet access will need to bring an Ethernet cord in order to connect.
"It was ok"
Apparently no one works the desk before 8 am. Had to leave the key in the locked office by slipping it through the door. Then prayed that nothing happened to it.. Not very impressive.Hotels.com 真实住客点评
Savannah Suites advertises itself as an extended stay hotel where the rooms come with a kitchenette equipped with dishes and cookware. My room did not have the basic dishes needed to utilize the kitchenette. I booked this room so I could prepare meals for my children and me, but ended up having to go buy a frying pan to cook with. The hotel staff said […] they had "given out all their pans." The room and hotel were dirty and shabby. It had a bad smell too. I will not stay here again and would have changed locations if another extended stay hotel had been available. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Okay for the visit"
The Hotel was quite clean, but it did have a smell in the halls.Expedia 真实住客点评
"This was an ok hotel"
We were expecting good kitchen but they had a mini version of the kitchen which was just ok. We also expected someone to be available before we checked-out of the hotel but they seem to have their working hours which is like on sunday they are not open even at 8AM. We had to slide the keys under the shutter and leave.Expedia 真实住客点评
"Stay at Savannah Hotel"
Nice room for the price. Only there for overnight stay.Expedia 真实住客点评
Terrible. Smells awful. Was the worst hotel experience I have ever had. I would not recommend this to ANYONE!Expedia 真实住客点评
"Good location"
Over all, because I did not have to stay in there during the day, it was ok. I just needed somewhere to lay my head to go to a conference which I did. Thank you. I will suggest that if a good deodorizer can be used in the hallways to welcome you, it will be nice.Expedia 真实住客点评
Only problem was the noise at the back door. People were coming in until 1am and the door was making a very loud noise when it closed. We were 2 rooms up from that door. They should do something to make it shut easier when someone enters... Everything else was wonderful...Expedia 真实住客点评
"Pungent odors, sketchy clientele."
Hotel hallways had a pungent odor, but room was clean. Lock on our room door was shoddy - opened easily with a little pressure on the door. Overall clientele of the hotel is sketchy. Would not stay again.Expedia 真实住客点评
"A Shelter"
I didn't know that families live in this hotel as a home.Expedia 真实住客点评
"Be Carefull"
Room was clean but hotel environment was scary. Front Desk has limited hours.Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Not bad. Perfect for travelers on a budget."
Needed a room with a kitchenette because we were bringing our own food. I assumed when it said there was "cookware" it meant a pot and pan, but it meant plastic spatula and spoon. We checked in after hours and the woman was very nice. What was not nice was being woken up at 4:45AM every day with a wake up call we didn't request. Also, the morning after […] we checked in, housekeeping knocked on our door at 9AM and woke us up. The shower head was extremely lower than normal which was okay for y 5'1 stature but not for my boyfriend who had to duck under the shower head. Everything in the room was very clean and everyone who worked there was nice. The hotel is located near plenty of stores and restaurants which was nice and only a 10 minute drive to the beach. Perfect for us because we were on a budget, and I think worth the money. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Don't let the avatar of the hotel fool you!"
Don't know where they got the avatar picture of the hotel, but that wasn't of the Savannah Suites Hampton I stayed at! Older hotel and a little run down but my room was clean and the price was ok. My room had an kitchenette. Electronic key card lock down is at 11:00 pm, literally! If you are checking in after 11:00 pm, you have to call for someone (number […] on the door) to let you in because there isn't a manned front desk (from what I could tell). Guess that's a plus for security and it is an ok place if you just need a bed to sleep in for the night... 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Worst hotel for Family! especially small children"
We were so disappointed as we made our reservations online and when we checked in I gave them the two internary numbers as we were staying for two nights. The front desk receptionist was named Jessica and I specifically asked her if we were going to have any problems because I had made two different reservations; however it was a continuous stay. She […] stated no that she would alert the next shift of our stay. Needless to say, she did not and there a manager knocking on our door at 11:30 the next morning as I was coming out of the shower, asking if we were staying another night. So I had to go thru this again and not once did he ever apologize for the inconvenience. Both nights there was so much noise that we could not sleep. And to add to the noise, one of the hotel employees, was playing very loud music for over 8 hours. You could not sleep peacefully, there were patrons that were using extreme profanity down the hallways after we had checked in and it could be heard by all, even the front desk and not one time did a manager address the issue. Then to top it all off, the last day of our stay before we could get to the front desk to check out, there was a manager with his clip board coming to check to see if we were staying another night. We had paid for only two nights, THANK GOD. We will not be staying here again as they did not even have clean linens (towels) for the guest the next day. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评

"disappointed guest of Savannah Suites"
My recent five day stay at Savannah Suites was horrible . From the unfriendly maintenance man to the other guests congregation right outside my door, and also the loud cursing and music to the children running up and down the corridors. My stay was horrible . There what appeared to be actual thugs hanging around the front of the hotel not to mention […] the filth of the carpet both in and outside of the room . I would not accept a free stay at this hotel. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评
"Very surprising...."
The only thing needed here is the carpets in the hallway needs cleaning. But the carpets did not reflect the niceness of the rooms. They probably struggle keeping the carpet clean because they have kids throughout the building. This is an extended stay place so take that into consideration when you go. A little different than an overnight hotel but […] was very nice. And great for the price. My room was fine. Oh, they need to go wifi .......I even got to work out in the gym.. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评
"Appearances on website can be deceiving."
Parking lot was cramped. Hallways and elevator smelled like stale cigarettes. Room was small and uninviting. The bathroom was clean and we had clean towels, but the bed was uncomfortable and there were only 2 small pillows on it when we got there. Had to ask for more. Glad it was only for a couple nights.Expedia 真实住客点评
"Great service Clean Room, fast internet"
Enjoyed my stay and the price was right, will stay here again. Room was clean and the service was great. Good locationExpedia 真实住客点评
"Wished I would have left at check in."
It smelled like stale smoke and I felt as though I was living with the homeless. Even though I opened my overnight bag briefly I still had to wash everything from the smell. The people next door with very loud yet security said we were and all we were doing was playing a board game. I will definitely be checking out a room prior to bringing up the […] luggage. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评
I checked into the Savannah Suites in Hampton Rds VA, and from the get go, i knew this was going to be bad. Went into the room, and the pillows on the bed were flat, went to the desk, she went into a room she said that was held for the workers, and pulled out a big fluffy pillow, then it said wireless internet, nooo, its cable. And you have to walk […] back to the front desk to get a cord. Took a nap and the mattress had a sink hole in the middle, so me and my boyfriend kept rolling to the middle. Got up, went to do my hair the outlet in the bathroom, did not work, so had to plug my hairdryer into the kitchenette, and do my hair with no mirror. The water in the bathroom faucet was swtched, the hot was cold the cold was hot. So go out, to out event come back about 1, and fell asleep. At 3 am, is sounded like a vaccume running in the hall, we both woke up, and it stopped, then it started again a few minuetes later, I finnally had to get up, get dressed and go out in the hall to see what was going on. 2 guys were using a carpet cleaner to suck up water in the hall, and had a industry fan running also. I told them it was 330 we needed sleep to be somewhere in the AM, they stopped. When we got up at 7 becasue the guy next door was blasting his tv since 6, we checked out. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评
why is the shower built for midgets. im not a big or tall guy. but even i had to squat or kneel under the shower. also its too crammed in with the toilet into a broom like closet. hvacs are way too noisy. walls are too thin. beds are hard in some areas and soft in others. room service did a good job. the front desk staff was good too. the breakfast […] food was sub-par. eggs were cold, bagels almost stale, yogurt tasted metallicy, but the coffee was good. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评

Northeast Mississippi Community College baseball team picked up a win against Northwest-Shoals Community College at Harold T. White Field on Tuesday, March 8. The Tigers (4-7) knocked off the Patriots (13-5) in game one 10-6 and were not able to play game two due to inclement weather. Northeast allowed one run in the top of the first inning but quickly responded in its first at bat, scoring three runs to go up 3-1 going into the top of the second frame.
Northeast Mississippi Community College football program will hold an in-house tryout on Monday, March 21 and will hold a tryout open to the public tentatively set for Monday, April 11.
All Northeast students are welcome to tryout on March 21 while all unsigned high school seniors are eligible to tryout on April 11 for the Northeast football team. Players will be judged in their 40-yard dash, vertical jump, shuttle run and will also be tested in full gear.
Northeast Mississippi Community College's baseball team will not play as scheduled today due to the inclement weather. "Our game with Wallace State-Hanceville scheduled for today for noon at Harold T. White Field has been postponed to a later date," said head coach Kent Farris. "We will notify everyone whenever we get a new date set."
Northeast Mississippi Community College softball program's TigerFest Tournament has always brought in some of the nation's elite to Booneville. Northeast's 2011 edition of the TigerFest is no different with 10 teams descending upon the City of Hospitality on Friday, February 25 and Saturday, February 26 for the tournament at Booneville City Park. Northeast head softball coach Jody Long welcomes nine other teams to Booneville City Park with five of those squads hailing from outside the Magnolia State.
Northeast Mississippi Community College golf program finished as the Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges (MACJC) state runner-up and the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Region XXIII runner-up in 2010. A year removed from those accolades, Craig Lauderdale's six-man platoon found the waters choppy in the MACJC's first event of the year as Northeast started three freshmen and two sophomores at The Oaks Golf Course in Pass Christian hosted by Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College.
Northeast Mississippi Community College baseball team picked up its first win of the year as the Tigers knocked off Wallace State (Ala.)-Hanceville in a rare nine-inning affair on Sunday, February 20. Northeast (1-3) scored its first victory of the 2011 season as sophomore Blake Powelltoed the rubber for eight scoreless innings against the Lions picking up the 2-0 win as fellow Tennessee product Daymon Eriksen came on in relief and shut the door on Wallace State-Hanceville in the ninth.
Northeast Mississippi Community College softball program continues to knock off giants. After knocking off 2010 National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Div. II national champion Muskegon (Mich.) Community College in the Lady Tigers season-opening tournament at Northwest-Shoals (Ala.) Community College, Northeast has continued to take down the elite.
Northeast Mississippi Community College baseball team found the opening to the 2011 season unkind to the Tigers. Calhoun (Ala.) Community College captured a pair from the Tigers in Northeast's season and home openers at Harold T. White Field in Booneville on Tuesday, February 15. Calhoun came away with a 7-6 heartbreaker in the season opener for the Tigers and walked away with the sweep with an 8-3 decision in the nightcap.
Northeast Mississippi Community College's head baseball coach Kent Farris' 2011 baseball team have waited long enough to get back on the diamond where the Tigers look to build off of last year's success. In 2010, Northeast advanced as the third seed from the Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges (MACJC) North Division and had to travel to Raymond to take on theSouth runner-up Hinds Community College.

has anyone heard anything about it? Good, Bad, whatever.
has anyone heard anything about it? Good, Bad, whatever.
DJ schools are pointless you can learn a lot more from youtube and practising everyday will help you a lot more than one lesson can. if your thinking about doing this please dont you will waste your money.
MBP 13 inch core i7 750GB, HDJ 2000, Kontrol X1 2 of them, KRK Rokit 6, Maschine, ableton, Kontrol S4, Shit load of Vst's, moog voyager XL on the way, Arturia 32 key midi keyboard
just curious in it thats all. wanted some experienced opinions also. Thanks!
other suggestions and options would be great also!
you could also check out the dubspot´s online school. some big skilled people there with a big heart and a lot of knowledge to share. you can only grow!
I think learning the initial ropes through lessons is a good idea. You'll be on the right track quicker and will be able to get creative and enjoy it more sooner which can't be a bad thing.
I'm not saying DJ Schools aren't good, but I think it's important to learn your own style and create your own adaptions to what is already out there. A DJ School will teach what they know, and their way of doing things, which isn't such a bad thing, since the teachers are Professional's... But I think style is what sets a DJ apart from the rest of the crowd.

I went to Scratch Lab in Toronto, I loved it and advanced quick, I would still be going if it was a little cheaper, its true you can teach yourself everything with youtube etc but for me, seeing someone perform a techneque in person, tell me in person and correct what I do, was a big help, its easy to create a bad technique when teaching yourself just depends what area of Djing you want to lean towards, everyones different, don't listen to someone say don't do it just because there are other methods out there to teach yourself, about 90% of everything else we learn in life is tought to us in person, its a faster learning curve if you can afford it imo also lesson don't teach you style they teach you technique, at least at scratch labs where I went it was pretty much all technique, you can't create a decent style without good technique.
i really appreciate the input. Im a pretty quick thinker and i got a S4 a few weeks back to get started and ive pretty much figured everything out on my own. Now that i understand what i does and is capible of i need to learn the details of everything and why things do what they do. Im gonna keep looking into lessons. I was hoping someone heard something about dj4life because thats one of the only things ive found in vegas and i cant find any kind of anything about them here. The Dj's that supposedly teach it , I cant find anything really on either. So that doesnt really help the matters of me wanting to go through them... Thanks Everyone!!

It was the Cold War's first "hot war;" the first U.N. war; and the only time troops from the "free world" advanced into a communist state, North Korea. Beijing's shock intervention also marked the first and only battlefield clash between the U.S. and China.
But it ended with an inconclusive armistice, and while North Korea remains 21st century news, the unfinished 1950-53 war lacks much of a cinematic image.
Although Hollywood has produced numerous classics on World War II and Vietnam, perhaps the only memorable Korea-set films are "Pork Chop Hill" (1959) and "MASH" (1970). A 1952 film on Chosin, called "Retreat Hell" barely does the material justice, some believe.
"Korea is too hard to define in Hollywood terms: They put out movies of heroism and derring-do in World War II, or arrogance and stupidity in Vietnam, and people understand," said Don Kirk a veteran, Asia-based U.S. correspondent. "We can't do that with Korea."
"One problem with the Korean War is generational: it happened after 'The Greatest Generation' but before the 'Baby Boomers,'" added Mark Russell, a culture critic and author of "Pop Goes Korea." "So for much of Hollywood, it never really happened."
But poignantly for the war's aging veterans, this year may mark probably its last significant commemoration: July 27, 2013 is the 60th anniversary of its end. The anniversary has raised some hopes for a filmic treatment.
"I'm disappointed that Hollywood hasn't done a feature film on this largely overlooked battle," said Wiedhahn. "It would contain drama, horror and suspense, and would be a major attraction on the 60th anniversary of the armistice."
Since December, Iglesias and business partner Anton Sattler, another ex-marine, have raised more than $30,000 on Kickstarter, a fundraising website, to produce a 3-D animated short on the battle, and are finalizing a graphic novel.
"There is a collective purpose with our Chosin products: Create awareness," Iglesias said. "We decided to continue the story on different platforms."
Iglesias' passion for Chosin is such that, with his proposed movie having just a "50-50" chance of production, he would applaud competing projects.
"If someone else makes this movie, I'll support them," he said. "For the Korean War, there's not enough consciousness."

Have the dates and locations for all the 2014 shows been made yet?
64 1/2 D code Coupe
08 Shelby GT500
Correct. I believe others have mentioned that a MCA show will be held Labor day weekend in Sturgis SD. However there were some differences with that show due to the 50th shows in 2014. I recall hearing that it would be a judged event but no normal "medallion" points would be awarded. I'm sure someone with better info than myself will weigh in but I'm fairly certain that is what was stated some months ago.
The MCA Shows approved for 2014 are as follows:
May 23-25, 2014 Springfield, IL Central Illinois Mustangers
August 7-10, 2014 Lincoln, NE Capital City Ford and Mustang Club
October 10-12, 2014 Savannah, GA Savannah Mustang Club
Along with the two Mustang Birthday Celebrations on April 16 - 20 2014 the east at Charlotte Motor Speedway and the west at Las Vegas Motor Speedway this gives mustangers a choice of 4 National level shows to attend.

Can't fault them - great value for money. Size wise, it's very important to get it right as they are slip-ons (I bought 2 pairs and returned 1), thick or thin socks will make a difference. I used the EU sizing from my Timberlands and CATs which seemed to work well.

Man accused of strangling, cooking puppy
Florida resident arrested
POSTED: 10:31 PM MDT Jun 29, 2013
UPDATED: 11:22 PM MDT Jun 29, 2013
A Florida man is accused of strangling a family puppy, chopping it into pieces and cooking its ribs on the stove, Tampa police said.
Thomas Elliot Huggins, 25, was arrested Thursday after a family member called police.
"When officers arrived, they found the dog's ribs cooked in a pot on the stove," Tampa police said. "The dog's head was in the garbage."
Huggins had strangled the 5- to 6-month-old puppy and chopped it into quarters, storing pieces in the freezer for future meals, authorities said.
He was arrested on suspicion of animal cruelty. Animal control officials took the remains of the puppy.

"After a year of Vietnam's miserable heat, nearly constant danger, and violent campaigns like the Tet Offensive, Chuck Hagel came back to the United States ready to get on with things -- and with both a loyalty to the U.S. military and a belief he should do all he could to prevent his nation's being involved in another war."
His fierce opposition to the Iraq War went far toward creating the schism that now exists between him and the GOP establishment.
"The damage this war has done to our country will play out for years to come," he wrote in his 2008 book, "America: Our Next Chapter."
"While it is easy for nations to blunder into war, they never blunder into peace," he added.
Especially on foreign policy issues, Hagel has shown time and again his willingness to speak his mind -- even if it goes against the prevailing Republican thinking or, in the case of the 2009 Afghanistan surge, the position of Obama.
His independence has spawned critics, as well as cheers.
"He's a guy with really serious foreign policy chops and someone, frankly, who hasn't been afraid to depart from his party when he thought they were wrong," Murphy, the Democratic senator from Connecticut, told CNN.
Hagel himself said Monday that he won't hold back if he becomes defense secretary, telling Obama, "I will always give you my honest and most informed council."

Queens Campus, Sunday May 15th, 2011 "I'd like you to remember three lessons in life. The first one – have fun and enjoy the moment. Life is a roller coaster. Having fun and humor makes the ride a lot smoother." "This is your moment. Embrace it. Look around, feel it. Enjoy the moment. There are 25,000 people here that are so proud of you. Think about how hard it was to get to this stage in your life. Think about the sacrifices you made. Think about how proud the people that impacted your life are today. Be proud. This is something that nobody can take away from you." "I am truly blessed; I am so appreciative, so thankful and so grateful. God is great. The last twenty years I have worked really hard to accomplish my dreams." "There is no such thing as guaranteed success, so to that 4.0 student, keep up the hard work. If you are that 2.0 student, never give up. Keep up the hard work. There are no do-over's in life. There are no makeup exams. Learn; lean on family friends and faith to help you make these tough decisions." "Success is best when shared. I am not good at accepting individual awards, truthfully, I don't believe in them. I really don't believe that anybody achieves anything in life alone. If I can take the diploma that I received today and cut it into 10, 000 pieces I would share each a piece with everyone that has impacted my life. I wouldn't be standing here today if it wasn't for friends, family and faith." "So, in closing, graduating class of 2011, remember the three simple lessons: Have fun, enjoy the ride; think big, dream bigger; and success is best when shared. I wish you and your families all the health and happiness and the greatest of futures. God bless everyone."

The deadline is a great idea guys, really helped push me.
Duunstar: I'm afraid you'll also have to take my advice with a grain of salt since the image is a bit blurry, so I'm not sure if some of the "mistakes" are really mistakes or just blurry camera focus. I think since you're already in a more finalized state, you should definitely push the line weight variation more the foreground elements need bolder lines but it seems the bed has the darkest line. THe areas that have elipses such as the fan and lamp are wonky (circles in perspective is hard ><)
OfficialLamp: It's a bit unfinished to give much critique but I'll try. Line weight variation should be pushed and the picture frame on the left is really slanted.
I'd like to do the two still lives next week, while we are in layout mode.

Apple products are famous for being low maintenance, however it's important to remember that the iPhone and iPad are powerful devices, and even the former is more like a portable computer than a phone. Both devices run using operating system software and contain apps, which are software programs themselves. As with computers, it's helpful to carry out maintenance on your iPhone and iPad occasionally to keep them working efficiently and help prolong their lifespan.
The first step in iPad and iPhone maintenance is to invest in a sturdy case. A case isn't just to prevent scratches and screen cracks, but it can also limit the amount of dust and dirt that gets into your iPhone casing. A screen protector is also helpful as it keeps your device's screen free of dust and oils. The touchscreen is one of the most crucial features of an iPhone and iPad, and damage can stop the this working, so you need to take adequate steps to ensure your screens are protected properly. I just got one from iFaceMall.com but not sure if you don't actually go to China you can get it but its a seriously great case. Our other fav is Case-Mate, however you can get good values at Target, Wal-Mart and other places.
Cleaning is an important part of iPhone and iPad maintenance, even when you have a case. To clean your device, turn it off and unplug it to prevent static electricity forming. Clean the device with soft, slightly damp microfiber cloth. If you decide to use screen cleaner, only use brands that are specifically designed for iPhone and iPad cleaning, and never use household or commercial-strength cleaning solutions.
As your iPhone and iPad age, the battery life will diminish, however you can take steps to prolong its lifespan. Take your iPhone or iPad case off to charge the device, as otherwise it might overheat, which could lower the battery's capacity. Apple recommends running through at least one full charging cycle every month for each device to keep electrons moving, which means fully charging the device, then completely draining the battery. It's also important to keep your iPhone and iPad out of the sun, as heat lowers the amount of charge the battery can hold.
Free up extra memory on your iPhone and iPad by deleting apps you don't use on a semi-regular basis. When performing iPhone and iPad maintenance, close programs in the multi-tasking tray. Back-up your content regularly to avoid losing data through a software crash, or when updating the iOS.
When you connect your iPhone or iPad to iTunes, you will receive a notification if a new software upgrade is available. Keeping software up-to-date can affect how your device functions, as upgrades can help fix bugs, can contain new software that helps your iPhone run more efficiently and can contain security patches that help make your iPhone data more secure.
Rebooting your device can help cure any minor iPad or iPhone software issues. Just like turning off or restarting your computer can help reset software problems, the same happens with your Apple devices. When rebooting an iPhone or iPad, press the home and sleep/wake buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo.
Other Tips
Other tips that will help maintain your devices and help prolong their lifespan include keeping them away from magnets, as these can affect their functioning. If you use your iPhone to listen to music during a workout, you should also be conscious about whether you are shaking the device, as this could cause it to malfunction. Avoid using your iPhone or iPad in the rain and snow, and keep them well protected in these conditions as water inside the casing will cause damage.

Let me start by saying I don't know what is best when doing stick welding since I don't do a lot of it so please be kind. I am about to weld some W8x24 beams to 8"x8" anchor plates with a lap joint and going to use a gas powered SMAW machine. What type and size rod would be best for this application and would multi passes be required or is there a rod that is large enough that a single pass would do.
Thanks in advance for your help.
The only person that can be considered ignorant is the one that knows that they don't know and doesn't ask some one who does.

An answer would depend on your machine current output and welding position.

I would run 5/32 6010 first pass around the beams 1/4" web and 3/8 flanges and use either 1/8 or 5/32 7018 to complete the fillet welds.
I don't understand where lap joints are going?
I'm thinking the 1/2" anchor plates will be welded to the end of the W8X24 beams and be bolted to a floor or another beam.

I'm thinking they will be lap joints because he said these are to be beams, not columns.

There will be W8x24 beams spanning 20' and resting on 1'x1' columns.
under the beams will be anchor plates 8"x8"x1/2" that the beams will sit on

The weld you show in your drawing could be made with 5/32 E7018 electrodes. Your drawings should specify how large the fillet/lap weld bead should be. They should also tell you the extent of welding, 100%, or some kind of intermittent stitch weld. If the drawings do not specify the size of the weld needed, then the best guess would be to make them the same size as the thickness of the plate, or 1/2". You could do this with 2 or better 3 passes.
This weld could be made with E7024 and/or a larger diameter electrode if you need to work faster and if the welding machine will supply enough current for larger electrodes. Check your electrode supplier's website for recommended amperage settings.
My recommendations assume the beams and plates are typical structural steel, and not a higher strength material. If they are something unusual, then you will need to ask what strength/type filler metal to use.

Help with lap joint on 1/2" plate.
Thanks for your help, as far as I know there is no special material to worry about, (But I well check to be sure) and the drawings have no specs on the thickness of the weld and therefore it makes since to match the weld metal.
So I will proceed with what makes since
and to satisfy my need for over kill do a complete multi pass fillet the length of the weld.
Thanks Again for your reply.
It is nice to have a community of pros who are willing to help when you face something new. God Speed/

Bagans, host of "Ghost Adventures," embodies the new ghost-hunter-with-an-attitude persona. He often taunts ghosts during his investigations ("You want us; you got us"), and one of his most memorable scenes came when he took off his shirt during an investigation, revealing his muscles and tattoos.
"There're definitely girls into that," says Wilkens, of paranormalsocieties.com. "It's a bad-boy thing."
Bagans has become a brand. On his website, he cradles a silver skull while advertising his Twitter handle. He has his own "Dungeon Wear" clothing line and a "NecroFusion" rock album for sale, and he has posted an interview with Muscle & Fitness magazine to share the secrets of his chest workout.
He says he's been criticized by investigators on another popular paranormal television show, but he won't say who.
"It's unfortunate that some shows feel like they own the paranormal," he says. "There's one show in particular, they talk a lot of crap."
Before paranormal investigators fought one another, though, they first fought for credibility.
Critics have long said ghosts don't exist and that paranormal shows are faked. Even "South Park" lampooned the overactive imaginations of ghost-hunting teams by depicting one duo as flinching at every stir of the wind before asking, "Did you hear that?"
One of the most formidable critics of the paranormal community is a former detective and magician who says he knows all the tricks.
Joe Nickell has been investigating hauntings since attending his first séance in 1969. He has been featured on many television shows debunking the supernatural, and has written a book aimed at disproving some of the most famous paranormal cases, "Entities: Angels, Spirits, Demons and other Alien Beings."
Nickell says he's never seen a ghost or any other supernatural entity in 44 years of investigations.
"I've never been able to find one," he says.
He has a theory, though, about why people are so fascinated with the paranormal.
"The paranormal, by and large, promises pretty wonderful things," he says. "If ghosts are real, then we don't really die. If I were voting, I would vote for that. There's a big market for this."
The show that started it all
The market for the contemporary fascination with ghost hunters can be traced primarily to one show: "Ghost Hunters" on the Syfy Channel. "Ghost Hunters" is to the paranormal field what Sugarhill's "Rapper's Delight" is to hip-hop -- it launched a subculture. The show was developed by Craig Piligian, founder of Pilgrim Studios, which created reality shows like "American Chopper" and "Dirty Jobs." The show was launched in 2004 and remains the Syfy Channel's top-rated paranormal reality show.
Piligian says he was inspired after reading a New York Times story about two Roto-Rooter plumbers who also offered house calls to fix paranormal disturbances.
"The same qualities they used to fix a leaky pipe they used in their work to debunk whether or not a place was haunted," Piligian says. "It was almost mechanical in nature, and not so much voodoo."
Jason Hawes is one of those plumbers and now the no-nonsense star of "Ghost Hunters." A gruff guy with a shaved head and goatee, he's also the co-founder of the Atlantic Paranormal Society. He's feted at paranormal conferences, speaks at corporate events and has written seven books on his ghost-hunting experiences.
"The fame is great, but the minute I'm done filming, it's all about my family," says Hawes. He and his wife met in junior high and have five children. "I'm still a little plumber from Rhode Island."
Hawes said the popularity of paranormal shows has added visibility to the field, but that some shows have damaged its credibility because they don't take a scientific approach to cases.
He won't name names, but he says some shows launch investigations assuming a place is haunted and allow cable production companies to handle evidence, which he says leaves room for fabrication.
"Ghost Hunters" won't allow the Syfy Channel to touch any evidence, and nothing on the show is fabricated, he says.
"A lot of our cases never air," Hawes says. "We go in believing that 80 percent of all claims can be disproved."
Hawes, Bagans and other paranormal stars may be famous, but there's one ghost-hunting duo that stands above all the rest: Lorraine and Ed Warren, the couple depicted in this year's Hollywood film, "The Conjuring."
The husband-and-wife team were investigating ghosts before it was hip. They founded The New England Society for Psychic Research in 1952 and investigated the notorious paranormal case that inspired the book and film "The Amityville Horror."
