A process in which two people defecate in the same toilet; achieved as one person straddles the other (like a spider swing), and defecates through the empty space in front of the other's crotch.
I couldn't hold it, so we took a spider shit.
Gomerj84가 작성 2010년 01월 16일 (토)
When two people cross legs (one person's left and one person's right) while sitting on the same toilet and shit at the same time. Completion without laughter means the two people are soulmates.
"Charles and I engaged in spider shits without laughing. I had no idea I was gay."

Great shorts for taller people.
By Tooo Tall
from Abu Dhabi, UAE
About Me Casual Dresser
Comments about Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Original Black Fight Shorts:
Great fight shorts. I am 6'8" so it is hard to find a pair of fight shorts that don't look ridiculous on me because of how long my legs are. But these go past my knee and have the cut up the legs so I don't lose mobility. They very true to size as far as the waist is concerned. so if you are tall or are just loking for a longer pair of shorts to train in/wear anywhere, these are perfect.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Excellent shorts for jits or workouts
By Perpetual White Belt
from Dallas, TX
About Me Classic Dresser
These shorts are very comfortable and fit true to size. Good for grappling training, working out, swimming, or just lounging. The Gracie logo is low key which is nice. The mouthguard pocket located on the right front leg inside at the bottom of the shorts seems like odd placement and I haven't used it, but it could work. I highly recommend these shorts.
Best jits shorts yet
By Killshot Scott
from Portland, OR
These are the most well-constructed, durable shorts I've used for no gi jiu jitsu. I am thinking of order a few more pairs I like them so much.
Cool shorts, nice length.
By Darkdeltoid
from Midland, TX
Well made fight shorts. I also wear them to the pool from time to time. Length is well suited for my body type (6'4" @ 270 lbs)
By BobbyB
from New Hampshire, NH
I bought these for MMA training and there are amazing. It looks like and feels like it would take allot for these to get messed up

Trayvon Martin's parents got emotional at a special commission meeting Monday night as they stood before Sanford city leaders asking for justice for their son.
"My heart is broken, that was my baby," said Sybrina Fulton, Martin's mom inside of Sanford's Civic Center.
Hundreds inside watched.
"George Zimmerman took my son away, he was not only my son, but my best friend," said his dad, Tracy Martin.
Sanford city mayor, Jeff Triplett moderated as speakers like Reverends Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson demanded George Zimmerman - who admits to shooting and killing Martin in self-defense - be arrested.
More than six-hundred people watched inside, thousands more outside at Fort Mellon Park on a jumbotron.
People wore hooded sweatshirts and held skittles in their hands in Trayvon Martin's memory - many participated in the march at Centennial Park, that took place before the town hall meeting.
Reverend Jesse Jackson talked one on one with FOX35 about the new developments in Trayvon Martin's case.
"They killed his body now they're trying to kill his reputation," said the civil rights activist about George Zimmerman claiming Trayvon Martin attacked him first by punching him in his nose and repeatedly banging his head onto the sidewalk.
"No amount of dirt they throw on Trayvon's grave will make us change our minds about the need for racial justice - which is the American dream for all of us," he said.

We're serious about food here in Maine. Buzzwords like foodie, locovore, and farm-to-table or sea-to-table don't tell the whole story of how we relate to food culture because for us, those aren't trends but rather the way we have always treated our relationship to food and dining out. Sharing the iconic foods of Maine with our visitors is a serious source of pride. We love nothing more than watching a child crack into his first Maine lobster or surprising and delighting a returning visitor with a new and innovative restaurant. When it comes to food and dining in Maine, we aim to please. Good thing our natural bounty makes it so easy to deliver.
Whether it's the fresh crabmeat in the four-egg omelet at Sylvia's Cafe in Ellsworth, or the just-caught lobster dinner paired with a glass of chardonnay from the Cellardoor Winery in Lincolnville, the tastes and dining experience are uniquely Maine.
The stories behind the menus make the dining and nightlife of Maine a full-sensory experience. The people here enjoy their craft, whether in one of Portland's highly acclaimed restaurants, or one of the 30 craft-breweries throughout the state. Their dedication and commitment to the tradition of Maine foods makes dining in Maine not just a meal, but an unforgettable experience.
The nightlife of Maine is electric in the trendy and emerging districts of Portland, but you can find nighttime entertainment or a relaxing and friendly neighborhood pub in nearly all of Maine's villages and cities. You can explore dining and nightlife options on our interactive map, or you can discover them on your own once you're here.
Maine is home to some of the freshest food in the world, craft-breweries that feature local ingredients in their brews, and a rewarding nightlife scene. The only ingredient missing is you.

Jerusalem, The Biography by Simon Sebag Montefiore
February 2, 2012 by Bob Livingston
The fact that Jerusalem is the center of the spiritual world for so many people seems to make politics there frighteningly complex and deadly. Consequently, if you have any interest in understanding why the area in and around Jerusalem is such a contentious piece of real estate, Jerusalem explicates, in exquisite historical detail, the thousands of years of fighting over a piece of ground that so many people want to possess. Sometimes, the details supplied by Montefiore are a bit overwhelming. But the historical tidbits, footnotes, archeological gossip and descriptions of what we know or think we know about what historical figures did to each other in this part of the planet are never less than fascinating and illuminating.
Near the beginning of the book, Montefiore describes a time when Jerusalem was ruled by a confederation of tribes who were challenged by the Philistines, "part of the Sea Peoples, who originated in the Aegean (Sea)." The Israelites led first by Saul and then by David beat them back. As king, David established his stronghold at Jerusalem because it was a demilitarized zone between the northern and southern tribes.
Power Struggles
Later on, though, rulers of the various kingdoms in and around Jerusalem would periodically invade and kill many of the local inhabitants, making off with gold from the city's temple. And then, in between invasions and sieges, members of the ruling class would battle with each other for power, brothers killing each other in order to take control, children killing parents, in-laws plotting each other's doom and generals using assassinations and bloodbaths to establish their own dynasties.
At the same time, the ruling Jewish kings twice built magnificent temples in Jerusalem (each eventually destroyed), filling them with golden treasures (all eventually looted) and established the city as a living, holy shrine.
But the battles never stopped.
In one typical period, as the Assyrians invaded, Israel's King Ahab joined with Judah and Syria to repel the would-be conquerors. But soon, the three anti-Assyrian partners began to war with each other, civil wars broke out and King Ahab was killed by his own troops. In the power vacuum, a general named Jehu decided it was time to do away with the rest of the royal family. He stacked the heads of Ahab's 70 sons in a gruesome pile at the one of the city's gates, killed the new king who was trying to succeed Ahab and, for good measure, murdered the visiting king of Judah. Ahab's wife, Queen Jezebel, was unceremoniously thrown out of a palace window, "pulverized" by chariots and fed to the dogs. But Ahab's family was soon in control again. One of Jezebel's daughters, Athalia, took power, killing every prince she could get her hands on (all of whom were her own grandchildren). She made Baal the state religion and set up idols in the Temple. Athalia, though, was eventually murdered, as were her priests.
This kind of back-and-forth killing was typical. Eventually, the Assyrians came back for more booty, and the Egyptians took a turn invading the area. When those empires backed off, the Babylonians arrived for their share. A couple of hundred years later, the Persians took out the Babylonians, followed by the Greeks and later the Romans.
Destruction And Conflict
Soon after Jesus was crucified, relations between Rome and the Jewish rulers of Jerusalem reached a tipping point. Roman legions marched into the city, looted it, burned it to the ground and slaughtered most its residents, hauling many of the survivors back to Rome as slaves and unwilling participants in bloody shows at the Coliseum. For a time, the city was a camp for Roman soldiers.
Later, when the Romans eventually left, the city settled down into relative obscurity, lapsing into low level anarchy before being invaded by European Crusaders.
Today, of course, Jerusalem is in the center of the controversy between Palestinians and Israelis, each group claiming that they should control the area. After reading Jerusalem, you won't wonder that the city and the area around it is a continual source of conflict. You may wonder why it isn't worse. Montefiore warns, "… there have always been two Jerusalems, the temporal and the celestial, both ruled more by faith and emotion than by reason and facts."

Myth 1: Carbs spell trouble for dieters. Fact: Carbohydrates are actually an important source of energy. Even so, that doesn't mean there's nothing to learn from low-carb diets. Carbs are not all created equal, and to help you Drop 5, you want to limit processed carbs such as white bread and croissants. Instead, enjoy beans and whole grains, such as brown rice and whole-wheat bread.
Myth 2: Frozen fruits and vegetables are less nutritious than fresh ones. Fact: That's true only if you live on a farm. Produce picked at the peak of ripeness does have more vitamins and minerals, but nutrient levels drop during shipping and storage. And they sink even further if you add the days that the produce lingers in your crisper. Frozen veggies and fruit, on the other hand, are usually picked ripe and immediately flash frozen, so they retain most of their nutrients. For calorie control, be sure to select frozen produce without added sugar, syrup, sauce, or cheese.
Myth 3: The cholesterol in eggs is bad for you. Fact: One large egg has 213 milligrams cholesterol, and health experts suggest limiting dietary cholesterol to 300 milligrams a day or less (200 milligrams a day if you have heart disease, diabetes, or high LDL "bad" cholesterol). However, dietary cholesterol's effect on blood cholesterol is still a mystery, and studies suggest that saturated fat and trans fat may have a much bigger impact.
Myth 4: Skipping breakfast will help you lose weight. Fact: Skipping meals can lead to weight gain. A recent British study that tracked 6,764 people found that breakfast skippers gained twice as much weight over the course of four years as breakfast eaters. Another research group analyzed government data on 4,200 adults. They found that women who ate breakfast tended to eat fewer calories over the course of the day.
Myth 5: Eating the day's foods in certain combinations will help you slim down. Fact: Seventy years ago, Good Housekeeping Research Institute experts declared this fad nonsense, and we say the same thing today. Almost all foods are combinations of protein, fat, and carbohydrates. In whole milk, for instance, about 20 percent of the calories are from protein, 50 percent from fat, and 30 percent from carbohydrates.
Myth 6: Your genes determine your metabolism and body weight. Fact: Only 25 percent of your body weight is determined by your genes - the rest is the result of your behavior. At any time in life, you can drastically change your body weight by combining low-calorie eating and exercise. And you can increase your metabolism at any age by performing strength and resistance exercises.
Myth 7: You can spot-reduce to lose weight. Fact: On the contrary, the way to achieve sleeker legs or a flatter stomach, if that's where you're carrying your body fat, is to increase your lean muscle tissue throughout your body. By working all your muscles, you increase your metabolism. Up your metabolism and watch your eating, and you'll start looking the way you want to.
Myth 8: Early morning is the the best time to exercise? Fact: "The best time to exercise is anytime you can do it. You get the same payoffs and burn essentially the same number of calories whenever you work out.
Myth 9: Your body won't burn fat unless you exercise for more than 20 minutes. Fact: You burn fat around the clock, whether you're exercising or not. For the biggest calorie burn, exercise as hard as you comfortably can (you should still be able to carry on a conversation) for as long as you can.
Myth 10: It's best to starve yourself before an event. Fact: This plan will backfire because you'll use the "I haven't eaten all day" excuse to stuff yourself when you arrive. Instead, save calories for a party by cutting back slightly at each meal for several days beforehand. Then, make the best use of your calorie allotment. For extra weight-loss insurance, increase your activity a few days before and after a big event.

Working in Paterson: Occupational Heritage in an Urban Setting presents 470 interview excerpts and 3882 photographs from the Working in Paterson Folklife Project of the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress. The four-month study of occupational culture in Paterson, New Jersey, was conducted in 1994. The documentary materials presented in this online collection explore how Paterson's industrial heritage expresses itself in Paterson: in its work sites, work processes, and memories of workers. Included are interpretive essays exploring such topics as work in the African American community, local foodways, the ethnography of a single work place (Watson Machine International), business life along a single street in Paterson (21st Avenue), and narratives told by retired workers.
Paterson, New Jersey, was founded in 1791 by the Society for Establishing Useful Manufactures (S.U.M.), a group that had U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton as an advocate. The basis for Paterson's manufacturing potential was the Great Falls on the Passaic River. Paterson went on to become the largest silk manufacturing center in the nation as well as a leader in the manufacture of many other products, from railroad locomotives to firearms.
The Paterson Folklife Project resulted in approximately 97 hours of recorded interviews (90 cassette and digital audio tapes) with people in their homes and places of work; 6,192 still photographs (3,420 35-mm color slides and 2,772 black-and-white images) documenting informants, work processes, work sites, industrial and commercial architecture, and other visible elements of occupational culture, including historic photos, documents, and memorabilia; and 1,004 manuscript pages of documentation, including 700 pages of audio and photo logs, and 314 pages of fieldnotes, in addition to administrative correspondence, maps, publications, and ephemera. These materials constitute the primary archival collection, the Working in Paterson Folklife Project collection (AFC 1995/028) which is available to researchers in the American Folklife Center's Folklife Reading Room. A duplicate copy of many of these materials is held by the National Park Service, which co-sponsored the project.
David A. Taylor from the American Folklife Center directed the Paterson Folklife Project. He and members of his research team interviewed active and retired workers in the textile and other important local industries, photographed workers and work-related events, and documented other aspects of Paterson's occupational heritage. In addition to Taylor, the research team consisted of documentary photographer Martha Cooper and folklorists Tom Carroll (a native of Paterson), Susan Levitas, Timothy Lloyd, and Robert McCarl.
The study was part of the federal Urban History Initiative (UHI) program sponsored in Congress by U.S. Senator Frank Lautenberg and administered by the National Park Service Mid-Atlantic Regional Office. The study focused on the ways in which community life and values are shaped by work and how the theme of work intersects with other themes, namely family, ethnicity, gender, neighborhood, and change over time. Senator Lautenberg and Representative William J. Pascrell, Jr., (the Mayor of Paterson when field research for the project was conducted), kindly agreed to be interviewed about Paterson, their home town. Mia Dell, Representative Pascrell's legislative director, provided support.

Comments about Rolling 15.6" Laptop Case:
I am not sure if I am explaining this properly...The zipper for the grey interior liner is backwards. The tab is not accessible. You would have to be between the hard case and the liner to unzip properly. Makes it a bit awkward to access space so that you can place soft items between liner and hard case. Hope this makes sense.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Washington State (5-3) hosts No. 10 Gonzaga (8-0) Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. in Beasley Coliseum. The game will be televised by ESPNU.
The Stats – The Zags have the edge in almost every major statistical category. But the two teams are pretty even in one of the more important numbers – points allowed per game. Gonzaga is tied for 32nd in the nation at 57.5, with the Cougars 38th just .3 points back. It's on the other side of the ball that GU has been among the best teams in the nation. Their 53.3% shooting was the tops in all the land as of Sunday. They also sat third in scoring margin (27.8 points) and fifth in points per game (85.3).
The Stars – You might as well pick a name out of a hat when it comes to the Zags, but it's a much clearer picture for Washington State. His name is Brock Motum. No surprise the 6-foot-10-inch Aussie senior forward has been a rock for the Cougars. He's averaging 18.9 points and 7 rebounds while hitting nearly 50 percent of his shots. In the last week he posted 26 and 9 against Idaho, followed by a 29 and 7 performance against Portland. Of course, the task gets considerably tougher when faced with the GU quartet of Elias Harris, Sam Dower, Kelly Olynyk and Przemek Karnowski. Those four have combined to average 48.9 points and 24.9 rebounds, and are viable candidates to pace the Zags. But you can't rule out a guy that dropped 33 in this very matchup last year. Without the demand for many big nights, Kevin Pangos has been steady this year - the main exception being his 23-points against Davidson. But you can't help but expect him to go off at some point. He drilled nine threes to beat the Cougars last season. It would be unfair to expect a repeat effort, but not unreasonable to anticipate another stellar showing.
The Storylines – Where to begin… how about in Pullman? That's where the Cougars are 5-0, and the Zags get their first true road test of the season. The teams have split their last two meetings, with both winning on their home floor. All-time the series belongs to WSU (98-48). When GU is ranked, the Bulldogs are 7-2. When facing top-10 teams the Cougars have just seven wins. Interestingly enough this is Gonzaga's first time ranked in the top-10 in both polls since December 22nd, 2008. On December 23rd Portland State dropped GU from No. 7 with a 77-70 upset in Spokane. That PSU team was coached by Ken Bone. For his career Bone is 2-4 against the Zags. Mark Few heads into the game with a 9-3 mark against Washington State. On top of all that, GU is going for its first 9-0 start in program history. You got all that? Good. Let's play some basketball.

The face of Detroit City Council is changing faster than many expected.Kwame Kenyatta has resigned. Now Gary Brown is expected to step down and take a job in the emergency manager's office. That would leave two seats empty with an election still months away.So what should happen? We took that question to Council Member Saunteel Jenkins."The charter says council shall appoint, so certainly we should consider the charter," she said.However, the charter does not explain who is qualified to be appointed or when it has to be done."There have been conversations about appointing current candidates. There have been conversations about appointing former council members or people who aren't either," Jenkins said.Sheila Cockrel sat on City Council for 16 years. She said losing council members during their terms is not unusual, but this situation could get complicated."I think it's a different circumstance when you're in the middle of an election cycle and when you're in the middle of the first election under a brand new system. You really do have to think through. Does this give people an unfair advantage?" she said.And does appointing new council members even make sense?"There's the summer recess and then the winter recess, so how many actual weeks of work will there be?" Cockrel said."Do we want to save those dollars and wait until somebody is elected in January, or do we want to strictly follow the charter?" Jenkins said.Regardless of what the council decides, the EM will have the final say."If we're going to appoint, I think it should be as soon as possible, but I think that's a decision that the whole body has to make," Jenkins said.This situation will most likely be discussed during Tuesday's council meeting. Meanwhile, Jenkins wants the council to go back to a committee of the whole system so that quorum will not be an issue.

The decade ahead
Preparing for an unpredictable future in the global chemical industry
Watch, learn & listen
Video podcast: A team of three Deloitte chemical leaders discuss the unpredictable future in the global chemical industry in The decade ahead: Video podcast.
Webcast: Two Deloitte chemical leaders discuss the future of the chemical industry in a webcast briefing session. Download here.
About the report
By 2020, the global chemical industry could face a range of competitive dynamics that differ from today in nature and intensity. As the economy emerges from the Great Recession of 2007–2009, the chemical industry finds itself passing through a period of profound transformation.
To gain deeper insights into the future of the chemical industry, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited's (DTTL) Chemical Group and Deloitte Research (United States) developed the report, "The decade ahead: Preparing for an unpredictable future in the global chemical industry". The report includes an analysis of the financial and operational performance of 231 global public chemical companies between 1998 and 2008, including specialty, commodity, and integrated players. This analysis shows that profitability has suffered in both the commodity and specialty sectors. Profits will continue to decline unless steps are taken to reverse the trend. In the coming decade, established strategies will be an inadequate foundation for success and may not ensure survival. New approaches are required as prerequisites for competitive viability. Naturally, the specifics of these approaches vary by sector.
In addition, the report reviews the predictions, analyses, and commentaries of differing points of view concerning the outlook for the economy, regulation, and technology, which is highlighted in the following three iterations of how the global business environment could unfold between now and 2020:
- Transition: Western economies suffer inflationary spells followed by hard landings, while the developing world focuses on domestic consumption and enjoys steadier growth. Economic and energy supply issues are higher priorities than emissions control.
- Resilience: In both developed and developing nations, growth rebounds as governments play an active role in managing their economies, directing investment, and promoting national competitiveness. Renewable energy and nanotechnology are among the top areas targeted for support.
- Dislocation: Difficult challenges and heavy-handed government policies keep growth subdued in the West. In Asia and the Middle East, the falloff in foreign export demand causes an economic slowdown that leads to social and political unrest.

Description: My family's history is inextricably linked with the history of Filipinas/os in Stockton, California. My maternal grandfather, Delfin Paderes Bohulano, immigrated to San Francisco from Kalibo, Aklan Province, Philippines in 1929 and worked all over the West Coast. During World War II, he met and married my grandmother Concepcion Moreno in Palompon, Leyte, when he was fighting with the First Filipino Infantry Regiment, and where my Cebu City raised grandmother and her family were finding refuge on their ancestral land. After the war, my grandparents attended college in the Philippines in the GI Bill and had two children, Delfin Jr. and my mother Christine. My grandfather brought his young family back to California in 1952 and found work as a labor contractor in rural Tracy, 20 miles south of Stockton. Two daughters, Virginia and Adeline, were born in Tracy. My grandmother Concepcion worked in the fields, as the camp cook for my grandfather's workers, in local canneries, and in 1962, was hired as the first Filipina American teacher for the Tracy Unified School District. My grandparents purchased a home in South Stockton in 1955, using the Veteran's loan program. My family's home movies, which date to the mid-1950s, record the many family gatherings my grandparents hosted in their South Stockton home as their extended family grew with increased postwar immigration and the baby boom and with marriages of my mother and her siblings, weekends visiting friends in San Diego, Salinas, and the San Francisco Bay Area, and important family events and parties. My grandparents were also very involved in the local Filipino American community, including the building of Stockton's Filipino Center in the early 1970s. The movies in the 1960s and 1970s record community events, family gatherings, weddings, baby and wedding showers, trips to New York and Washington, D.C., and Atlantic city, my family's emotional return visit to the Philippines in 1967, the funerals and family gatherings of my grandfather Delfin in 1976 and my grandmother's brother the same year in the Philippines, and the births and childhoods (and dance recitals!) of the third generation in the 1970s.

Asia has a disproportionate share of the world's young, working-age population—which represents the most mobile cohort—with resulting major immigration flows to other regions of the world, and increasing intraregional migration as aging and demographic transitions occur at different levels within Asia. The research here focuses in particular on how the labor-sending countries of the region, notably the Philippines and other Colombo Process countries, manage these migration flows, engage in bilateral and multilateral cooperation with migrant-receiving nations, and engage their diasporas. The recruitment process and regulation of recruitment agencies also represent a strand of the work offered here.
Internal migration spurred primarily by employment and marriage helps shape the economic, social, and political life of India's sending and receiving regions. Labor migrants face myriad challenges, including restricted access to basic needs such as identity documentation and social entitlements. This article describes the barriers to integration that labor migrants face, and details the policy environment surrounding their integration challenges.
On the fringes of the radar today, here are some topics likely to generate discussion and controversy next year.

This report identifies features of remittances that make them ideal leveraging agents for poverty reduction and migration management agendas, and proposes a four-part international research and policy agenda for maximizing the development impact of international remittances.
This report captures India's exceptional growth in reported remittances over the 15-year period between 1990 and 2005. It explores the relative importance of these remittances in India's economy, and then identifies factors responsible for this exponential gain.
This report draws from the existing body of knowledge surrounding circular migration to identify: research gaps, shortcomings of common policy routes, innovative circular migration policies, and critical considerations for policymakers seeking to design and implement positive circular migration schemes.
Previously confined to everyday conversations among migrants and their families, remittances are now on the minds of most governments, members of civil society, the international community, and, to some extent, the private sector. The continued deficiency in our understanding of some of the fundamental aspects of remittances is evident in current literature.
For an increasing number of scholars, international migration has undergone a transformation particularly in the last decade or so. Although circular migration's impact on development is far from settled, a review of the current literature suggests increasing optimism about its developmental potential.

Across the country, people were running for Boston. A fun run called the Compatriot's 5K was held in 13 states Saturday to raise money for the Boston Marathon bombing victims. Several local runners who were at the Boston Marathon took part in a run in Warren.
Click on the video player to watch Robin Schwartz's report.
The freedom to do what they love was one thing propelling the runners forward; the desire to help the more than 180 victims of the Boston Marathon bombings was an even bigger driving force.
"I just feel so so bad for the victims and for that little boy and for everyone the two women who died," said Kathy Clark of Fraser. "It's just so upsetting. It's such a wonderful patriotic event to turn into such a tragedy."
Clark finished the race just four minutes before the first bomb went off. She and two other local runners who were in Boston that day joined about 70 others at Warren Parks and Rec for the Compatriot's 5K in solidarity with the victims and their families.
"I was happy and honored to run Boston I'm even more honored to run for Boston," said James Lau of Sterling Heights. He finished the Boston Marathon about half and hour before the blasts.
Money raised at all 13 Compatriot's 5K's will go to the One Fund Boston, created by the governor of Massachusetts and Boston's mayor to help all of the victims whose lives will never be the same.

Jockey Quotes
"Well, I made history. I won the last race and got the last set of days (he received a three-day suspension from the stewards earlier Sunday) at Hollywood Park. Kind of bittersweet. That was really emotional. It's hard to really say that much. This has always been such a great place to be. After winning a bunch of races here, it's hard to see it go. It's pretty sad."
"It feels great to win the last title. It means a lot to me. When I came back to the winner's circle, I could hear everyone cheering and I was just so happy."

AMARILLO - There are hundreds of well-paying jobs available in the panhandle, but women aren't taking advantage of them.
Amarillo College wants to change that by empowering women to see their full potential and go for jobs in traditionally male-dominated industries.
"Technical skilled trades pay more than unskilled trades," Amarillo College Marketing Coordinator M. J. Coats said.
Those who graduate from AC's technical programs usually end up with a steady, well-paying job.
Coats says there are nearly 700 students are enrolled in technical programs, but less than 100 of those students are women.
"These are non-traditional careers for women, but they are perfectly capable of doing them," Coats.
That's why AC is offering a free information session this coming Friday. The point of the program is to get women to the campus so they can picture themselves working in aviation and other male dominated industries.
Bob Gustin teaches machining technology. He had a long career in the automotive industry before coming to teach and says machinery a great trade for anyone looking stable, well-paying job.
"In the state of Texas, you got the oil industry, you got agriculture, we've got electronics, we've got automotive, heavy industries, we've got ship building. Every one of those trades requires machinists in there somewhere," Gustin said.
Gustin says his best students are usually single mothers. They're motivated, detail-oriented, and go on to make great employees.
Those are the kind of students the women in industry event aims to bring to ac and local employers.
"For single moms and for ladies that are struggling to pay the bills and for folks that are looking for a way up, a way out, coming and having a technical education is one of the best ways to do it," Coats said.
There are 20 spaces open for the free info session Friday. It starts at the Washington Street campus at 8 a.m. with a free breakfast. You register for the event by clicking here.

LONGMONT, Colo. (AP) - Colorado officials say the emergency response to the flood disaster is ending and the long and arduous task of recovery has begun. Sheriff Joe Pelle said Wednesday that rescue workers are ending "high octane" search-and-rescue operations. Searchers are now going door-to-door and looking through debris piles and vehicles for victims and damage in the flood-scarred areas of the foothills. Those crews include Federal Emergency Management Agency urban search-and-rescue teams with search dogs and medical supplies. Lt. Col. Mitch Utterback of the Colorado National Guard says some of the helicopters flying rescue missions may be returned to Fort Carson. As the airlifts taper off, so have the number of missing. State emergency officials say that number was just over 300 by Wednesday morning. There have been six confirmed deaths.PREVIOUS STORY:
LYONS, Colo. (AP) - As water recedes and flows east onto the Colorado plains rescuers are shifting their focus from emergency airlifts to trying to find the hundreds of people still unaccounted for after last week's devastating flooding. Federal and state emergency officials said more than 3,000 people have been evacuated by air and ground, but calls for those emergency rescues have decreased. The state's latest count has dropped to about 580 people missing, and the number continues to decrease as the stranded get in touch with families. State officials reported six flood-related deaths, plus two women missing and presumed dead. The number was expected to increase. It could take weeks or even months to search through flooded areas looking for bodies. State and local transportation officials are tallying the washed-out roads, collapsed bridges and twisted railroad lines.(Copyright 2013 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

(RNN) – Dozens of people have died after a second day of tornadoes twisted through Oklahoma, this time taking aim at the town of Moore, south of Oklahoma City.
The death toll is expected to rise as the search continued through the night, the wreckage lit by flood lamps.
The National Weather Service described the storm as large and violent, and area hospitals have treated about 120 people.Two schools were in the storm's path, and children were in those schools when the twister hit.
Early reports from KFOR-TV stated that seven children were found dead at Plaza Towers Elementary, where rescue crews have been trying to rescue those trapped.
Briarwood Elementary School in Moore took a direct hit. Children were reportedly trapped inside, but according to KWTV, all have been found safe.
Several children were pulled from the debris, passed along in a human chain, according to an Associated Press photographer. It's unclear if they are part of the 75 who are still in the school.
First responders dug through leveled homes and scattered debris in neighborhoods, looking for survivors underneath wreckage.
Some parents were reunited with their children at nearby shelters, but other parents are awaiting word throughout the night.
Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin has activated the National Guard and says crews are "trying to make sure we have looked under every single piece of debris" for trapped victims.
The storm has been given a preliminary rating of EF-4. Tornadoes of that magnitude have wind speeds of anywhere from 166-200 miles per hour.
The first images emerging from Moore show smashed cars, downed power lines and scattered debris. Homeowners sorted through the debris, trying to salvage possessions and memories.
An unidentified mother told KOTV she and her two children were taking cover in the bathtub when the tornado blew through their neighborhood.
"Our whole house is gone. Everything but where we were is gone," she said, through sobs.
Had she and her children not been in the bathtub, "it would have been completely different," she said.
President Barack Obama has spoken with Fallin and declared the area a disaster area, paving the way for victims to receive assistance from FEMA.
News helicopters were asked not to fly directly over the area so that first responders can hear cries for help from people trapped.
Moore Medical Center sustained significant damage. Patients are being taken to hospitals in Norman, OK.
Interstate 35 in Moore is closed in both directions.
The American Red Cross has set up a shelter for those in need. The University of Oklahoma is also offering shelter at the school.
KOCO broadcast a slow rotating cloud that slowly extended down towards the ground before taking the shape of a funnel.
A storm spotter told CNN that the tornado is three quarters of a mile wide.
The National Weather Service tweeted at 3:03 p.m. "This is as serious as it gets for SW OKC and Moore. Please seek shelter now!"
The Oklahoma House of Representatives canceled any afternoon sessions.
Two years out from their own historic tornado, the City of Joplin, MO, is sending a team of police and firefighters to help in the search and rescue and cleanup efforts.
"We remember the amount of assistance that we received following the tornado two years ago, and we want to help others as they helped us. We know too well what their community is facing, and we feel an obligation to serve them as they have served us," said Joplin City Manager Mark Rohr in a statement.
Monday's storm in Moore brought back memories of an EF-5 tornado that tore through the area in 1999 and comes a day after two people were killed in Shawnee, OK, when 26 tornadoes raked across Oklahoma, Kansas, Iowa and Illinois. Sunday's storms also injured more than 20.
Glen Irish, 79, and Billy Hutchinson, 76, both from Shawnee, were found dead after Sunday's tornado leveled a central Oklahoma mobile home park, according to the Associated Press.
Two people from that same county were reported missing, but they have since been found and authorities said they were not at home when the tornado hit, according to CNN.
The American Red Cross is accepting donations to aid in their response. Donations can be made a www.redcross.org/okc or by texting REDCROSS to 90999.
To donate $10 to the Salvation Army, text 80888 or visit https://donate.salvationarmyusa.org/uss/eds/aok.

Governor Jan Brewer has signed a bill that makes big changes to gun buyback programs. Those programs are often run by police agencies trying to get guns off the streets.
But this new bill requires cities and law enforcement agencies to resell those guns rather than destroy them.
The gun buyback programs have been very successful in the eyes of law enforcement. Unwanted guns are able to be given away, no questions asked, and in some cases you can get a gift card in return.
"I sold a gun back that wasn't doing me any good hanging around the house," says Tom Cleary, Phoenix resident.
As it stands now, the guns are melted down, but some in the legislature felt destroying the weapons was a waste of taxpayer's resources.
The new law requires the guns to be resold to licensed gun dealers rather than destroyed.
The governor signed the bill with no fanfare Monday night. Brewer's office said it received about 2,000 letters, emails and phone calls, most them in support of the new law.
The law takes effect later this year. Phoenix police have 3 gun buyback events over the next few weeks.
"We would just encourage people to come out at this point. Especially if they have the intent of providing a weapon that they want destroyed. This is the time to do it," says Phoenix Police Sgt. Steve Martos.
The future of police or city-sponsored gun buyback events is uncertain.
"I don't think you will see law enforcement in Arizona being involved in gun buyback programs anymore based upon this law. It requires us to sell these guns back and the whole purpose of gun buyback events is to remove guns from the street," says Martos.
So while government backed programs may be finished, the new law does not apply to non-profit organizations.
