"Are you there, Satan? It's me, Madison," declares the whip-tongued 13-year-old narrator of Damned, Chuck Palahniuk's subversive new work of fiction.
The daughter of a narcissistic film star and a billionaire, Madison is abandoned at her Swiss boarding school over Christmas, while her parents are off touting their new projects and adopting more orphans. She dies over the holiday of a marijuana overdose—and the next thing she knows, she's in Hell. Madison shares her cell with a motley crew of young sinners that is almost too good to be true: a cheerleader, a jock, a nerd, and a punk rocker, united by fate to form the six-feet-under version of everyone's favorite detention movie.
Madison and her pals trek across the Dandruff Desert and climb the treacherous Mountain of Toenail Clippings to confront Satan in his citadel. All the popcorn balls and wax lips that serve as the currency of Hell won't buy them off.
This is the afterlife as only Chuck Palahniuk could imagine it: a twisted inferno where The English Patient plays on endless repeat, roaming demons devour sinners limb by limb, and the damned interrupt your dinner from their sweltering call center to hardsell you Hell. He makes eternal torment, well, simply divine.
©2011 Chuck Palahniuk (P)2011 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
"The story scoots along like any great adventure story, as she takes on Hitler and Catherine de Medici, and it's a delight seeing Madison find her place in life, even if it's in death." (Booklist)
"Palahniuk is one of the freshest, most intriguing voices to appear in a long time. He rearranges Vonnegut's sly humor, DeLillo's mordant social analysis, and Pynchon's antic surrealism (or is it R. Crumb's?) into a gleaming puzzle palace all his own." (Newsday)
Author, rabid Audible listener.
"As a new Chuck Palahniuk reader, I liked it a lot!"
Are you there Satan? It's me, Madison. This is the start of each new chapter as narrated by a 13 year old dead girl damned to Hell in Chuck Palahniuk's latest novel. Hell is certainly hot. Hell is where demons rule over us puny dead humans. Hell is where dot matrix printers, dialup connections and telemarketing jobs rule the offices dwellings of the damned.
We start the story with little Madison sharing what appears to be her first day in Hell and giving really good pointers for the future dead. Always wear good shoes when alive because the bad plastic knock-offs always melt. Never touch the cell bars or your skin will corrode. And most importantly, make sure you have some good candies on hand to make nice with the demons that may otherwise eat you.
Do not bother trying to figure out where this plot is going. This is a dark comedy that is incredibly fun to read and you just need to go with the flow. There is tough and disgusting subject matter that is handled with a very deadpan comedic way so even the squeamish won't much mind the descriptions of various lakes, rivers and waterways made up of discarded human waste. No seriously, it will be fun going on this journey, you will see!
Follow our main character Madison as we travel through Hell, learn about her past, her crazy family, her friends in Hell and her ability to recruit new people in droves to the underworld. Get some great pointers along the way on how to deal with Hell because if you so much peed in a pool more than a few times in your life, that's where you are headed.
Madison's story covers a lot of ground and the close friendships, along with their stories, make us consider the things we may have done right or wrong in our lives. This book never preaches and certainly won't convert any satanists or loyal belivers but it does endear you to the characters, make us consider our actions here on earth and of course re-consider our clothing options everyday because it may be our last.
I've read a lot of other reviews before buying this book but as an Audible listener I was immediately sold with the voice of Tai Sammons as Madison. For the record, this is the first Chuck Palahniuk book I've ever finished because his other work was too confusing or frenetic for me so maybe hardcore readers don't like it but a newbie might love it.
"Well, I'll be... "Damned""
I got "Damned" by Chuck Palahniuk partly on the promise of the Audible review and partly because I know about the author and his writing. My bias, however, is that I prefer audiobooks that are performed rather than just read, so this book came up just a little bit short for me. There were some funny passages, and a lot of interesting cross references. In the end, however, I just wasn't into Ms. Sammons's delivery of the book.
"nicely read, though"
I know a book by Chuck Palahniuk is going to be unusual. Generally, his works are also entertaining. I loved Rant, Choke, and Pygmy, but this one was just weird, disjointed, and boring. Most of it was blatently insipid. I'm not sure what audience Palahniuk was trying to reach but there was a lot of purile, bathroom "humor" attempted. Many story threads are left dangling and the whole experience, other than the charming reader, was, for me, disappointing.
"Damned is what you will be if you waste a credit"
The story is told through the eyes of a 13 year old girl but it falls flat as the author tries to recreate a weird version of Juno except in hell. It is really the rambling craziness of a 13 year old girl, nothing profound. I would pass.
I rate as follows: 5 Stars = Loved it. 4 Stars = Really liked it. 3 Stars = Liked it. 2 Stars = Didn't like it. 1 Star = Hated it.
"Don't Do It..."
OK Chuck, you win. Clearly you wrote this book for the sole purpose of playing a game of "chicken" with your readers - to see if you could force everyone to turn this horrible excuse for a story off before it ends. I did. I LOVED Haunted (a book which offended a lot of other people) but this book is on a whole different (lower) level.
One scene details the main character (a 13 year old girl) climbing half-way up the body of a huge female demon, holding up the still living, decapitated head of a teen-age boy to a part of the demon's body (a body part that can't be named here) so the boy's head can... you know... (this is to "distract" the demon from swallowing said boy's body - which itself now shows signs of "reacting" to what it's decapitated head is doing.
If you understood just how cleaned up/censored the above description was, you'd be shocked. There is no way for me to even hint at how far this goes, because the review would be too offensive to remain posted. I have an extremely healthy sense of humor, and as I said I've enjoyed previous works by the author, but this just turned my stomach.
This may be the first time in my life I honestly want a refund on a story.
Scientist, artisan, anachronism
"are you there satan? it's me..."
damned – are you there Satan? It's me… Maynard.
I LOVE this book. author: great. Story: great. Narrator: great. I have listened to this book over and over and over. I usually don't like stories about teenagers. Even less so do I like stories about teenage girls. However, chuck pulls it off. Now this is by no means a story for the younger despite it being about a teen (you know: sex, drugs, cunnilingus…). The occasional history of the demons in hell and the imagery of such is the highlight of the book for me. Additionally the articulation is perfect: a chipper and yet exhausted sarcasm is perfect for a teenager in hell.
Make no mistake, I am a Palahniuk fan. I might even say he is my favorite author. So consider my bias when reading my review. Of chuck's other novels, that I have read, my favorites are: survivor, invisible monsters and damned. Choke was somewhere between good and ok. Stranger than fiction was between ok and good.
"Call me crazy."
But I loved this book. It's insane, gonzo premise. The parallel structure of each chapter. The quirky, highly repetitive narrative. The performance. The characters. Thank goodness (or some other supernatural force) I was not swayed by the other reviews here.
Stuck in an infinite time loop.
"A Quirky Premise That Delivers"
The subject of "Damned" is straight-forwardly supernatural in content while remaining fully tongue-in-cheek in its approach. Hordes of demons and the damned populate the 247 hellish pages of this opening novel in a trilogy about the afterlife, but, if that sounds like a bit too much like a nightmare, don't worry---there's not much to be afraid of here: Palahnuik's imagery invokes more gross-out than gore-fest; and his treatment in general is way more satire than horror; and, despite the bizarre geographical landmarks he points out along the way, the protagonist's tour through hell ends up looking more like "Gulliver's Travels" than "Inferno." But this is by no means a bad thing, and all of it seems to go by too fast, at any rate. At a bit over seven hours via audio book, you might be left wishing you had gotten just a peek, no matter how disgusting, of the infamous "Swamp of Partial-Birth Abortions" just to keep the ride going.
Both in terms of setting and protagonist, "Damned" marks a slightly different turn for novelist Chuck Palahnuik, but fans should have no trouble recognizing the same cynical, outsider's vantage point in the narration, along with the striking originality of language and word choice the author employs. It may take the reader a bit of time to grasp the odd premise of "Damned," a first-person narrative that brims with the usual clever similes and pop culture references, but once the concept is grasped--that, yes, the setting for this story literally is HELL---he or she may well chuckle and smile, as I did, at the uniqueness of such an approach to storytelling. At its core, "Damned" is consistently entertaining, highly imaginative, and at times, simply mesmerizing.
Tai Sammons narrates the tale with aplomb although some may find her voice a bit irritating and nasally. I was not among them and thought she inhabited the characters well. I recommend this book for anyone wanting a fun, escapist tale, well told and full of creative visual atrocities the likes of which could only come from the mind of Chuck Palahnuik.
"Dont get this book!"
I dont know what I was thinking. After half liking Fight Club, I keep trying on Palahniuk and now Im convinced to stop.
First of all, if I wanted to get the chronicle of a hell dweller, I would NEVER choose to talk to a know it all bitter hollow mined 13 yr old girl who knows nothing about life. Granted, she is clever, sometimes half funny, but NOT the perspective anyone would be interested in.
After 7 chapters, this "interview with the damned " is just a "monologue by a rich 13 yr old girl who happens to be in a funny depiction of a hell".
It almost feels like she isn't actually dead, just passed out and dreaming or just plainly on a drug induced hallucination with her neighborhood buddies.
"try another chuck"
I'm generally a chuck fan, but I couldn't get through this one -just not that funny or interesting or written well enough to justify my time. I do encourage you, however, to try other another chuck (except pygmy - I didn't like that one much either).
"Classic Chuck Palahnuik is becoming mundane"
Chuck Palahnuik used to be one of my favorite authors. Fight Club, Choke, and Invisible Mosters were all brilliant. But he is using the exact same style in all of his books which is now annoying to me. He needs to move beyond the sexual shock factor and artsy repetition of the same phrase. It was interesting in the Fight Club, but now "I am Jack's complete lack of surprise."

AERMOD is the latest generation air dispersion model designed for short-range (up to 50 kilometers) dispersion of air pollutant emissions from stationary industrial sources. It is a steady-state plume model incorporating dispersion based on planetary boundary layer (PBL) turbulence structure and scaling, and it accomodates surface and elevated emission sources as well as simple or complex terrain.
As of December 9, 2005, the U.S. EPA designated AERMOD as the preferred model to be used for compliance with any federal and state air pollution dispersion modeling requirements. As of November 9, 2006, AERMOD completely replaces the previous preferred model known as the Industrial Source Complex (ISC) model.[1]
The AERMOD system integrates three modules:[2][3][4]
- A steady-state Gaussian dispersion model designed for short-range dispersion of continuous emissions from stationary industrial sources.
- A meteorological data preprocessor (AERMET) that accepts surface meteorological data, upper air soundings, and optionally, data from on-site instrument towers. It then calculates parameters needed by the dispersion model, such as atmospheric turbulence characteristics, mixing heights, friction velocity, Monin-Obukov length and surface heat flux.
- A terrain preprocessor (AERMAP) whose main purpose is to provide a physical relationship between terrain features and the behavior of air pollution plumes. It generates location and height data for each receptor location. It also provides information that allows the dispersion model to simulate the effects of air flowing over hills or splitting to flow around hills.
AERMOD also includes PRIME (Plume Rise Model Enhancements)[5] which is an algorithm for modeling the effects of downwash created by the pollution plume flowing over nearby buildings.
History of the development of AERMOD
In 1991, the American Meteorological Society (AMS) and the U.S. EPA initiated a formal collaboration with the goal of incorporating planetary boundary layer (PBL) concepts into regulatory dispersion models. A working group called the AMS / EPA Regulatory Model Improvement Committee (AERMIC), comprised of AMS and U.S. EPA scientists, was formed for this effort.[2]
The AERMIC developed AERMOD in seven steps:
- Initial model formulation
- Developmental evaluation
- Internal peer review and beta testing
- Revised model formulation
- Performance evaluation and sensitivity testing
- External peer review
- Submission to the U.S. EPA for consideration as a regulatory model.
On April 21st of 2000, the U.S. EPA proposed that AERMOD be adopted as their preferred regulatory model for both simple and complex terrain. About 5 years later, AERMOD was adopted by the U.S. EPA and promulgated as their preferred regulatory model, effective as of December 9th of 2005.[1] The entire developmental and adoption process took 14 years (from 1991 to 2005).
Features and capabilities of AERMOD
Some of the primary features and capabilities of AERMOD are:[3][6]
- Source types: Multiple point, area and volume sources
- Source releases: Surface, near surface and elevated emission sources
- Source locations: Urban or rural locations. Urban effects are scaled by population.
- Plume types: Continuous, buoyant plumes
- Plume deposition: Dry or wet deposition
- Plume dispersion treatment: Gaussian model treatment in horizontal and in vertical for stable atmospheres. Non-Gaussian treatment in vertical for unstable atmospheres
- Terrain types: Simple or complex topography
- Building effects: Handled by PRIME downwash algorithms
- Meteorology data height levels: Accepts meteorology data from multiple heights
- Meteorological data profiles: Vertical profiles of wind, turbulence and temperature are created

Rowena Gerber, a school teacher, has gotten many students into serious solar cooker design and construction. She also takes part in international gatherings.
News and recent developments
- October 2012: Students, parents, faculty, staff and friends gathered at Miami Country Day School located in Miami, Florida, USA on Friday, April 20, 2012 and set the Guinness Book of World Records™ for "The Most Cookies Baked in One Hour Using Solar Ovens". Trays of unbaked cookies were placed in 40 smaller solar ovens, as well as, two Villager solar ovens. After the cookies were baked and 1225 counted....a World Record was set! The event raised over $18,000 USD, which was used to send the 40 solar ovens and a Villager oven to Haiti. The cookies baked in the event were donated to Feeding South Florida. The event was lead by Matthew Cohen, a high school junior who has been actively involved in the solar oven movement for the past nine years. Cohen launched the website Power from the Sun to educate people worldwide on the benefits of solar cooking and help raise money to send solar ovens to needy families in Haiti. Cohen's latest project is aptly named "The Life Of The Traveling Solar Oven" and encourages students, parents, teachers, and local businesses to sponsor a solar oven. Participants are asked to use the solar oven, document their experience with video or photos and share it on their facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/PowerFromTheSun. The event will conclude on Earth Day 2013.
- November 2010: On November 20th, Rowena received the Global Educator Award from the 6th Annual MY HERO Film Festival to recognize the incredible impact of her Solar Oven Project. Over the years, Gerber and her students have raised thousands of dollars to send solar cookers to Senegal, Haiti and Afghanistan. Gerber chose sites that were "sun rich, but so poor otherwise." These solar ovens harness sunlight to make a tremendous difference in the lives of families. In the process, the Solar Oven Project also teaches children about the importance of protecting and preserving their environment. More Information...
- August 2009: Rowena Gerber was honored as a Teacher Hero on http://www.myhero.com. Click here for a the full article, including a statement from a student as well as an interview with Rowena.
- November 2007: Rowena Gerber, director of the Abess Center for Environmental Studies at Miami Country Day School, reports that her students' solar cooking activities during Earth Day in New York's Central Park were quite successful. At 6:00 a.m., Paul Munsen, president of Sun Ovens International, set up one of his company's giant Villager Sun Ovens® as a teaser to draw a crowd. ABC television broadcast solar cooking updates throughout the day, at various stages of the process. During one segment, the anchor man was served a solar-cooked breakfast of sausage, eggs and cinnamon rolls! As the day progressed, thousands of people filed by to taste the food and learn about solar cooking. Gerber's students brought some of the solar cookers they had made from recycled materials, and cooked chicken, sausage, hotdogs, corn-on-the-cob, fondue, cookies, bread, and lots of other goodies. Gerber's students collected donations throughout the day as part of an ongoing effort to raise funds to send a Villager Sun Oven® to Mekhe, Senegal, for a program run by Abdoulaye Toure.

Mike Epps has a pivotal role in the remake of the movie "Sparkle" due out this Friday. He plays Satin Struthers, a gangster in the original film, who's been remade into a comedian this time. But this doesn't mean Epps is any less menacing. His Struthers is a comic who's become embittered by his lack of respect in his own community. Epps' role isn't the comic relief – he's once again playing a dramatic role as he did in "Jumping the Broom."
Struthers is still the catalyst of the downfall of a girl group, this time set in 1960's Detroit. But just like the original movie, which starred Lonette McKee and Irene Cara when it came out in 1976, Jordin Sparks, Tika Sumpter and Carmen Ejogo plays sisters who form a girl group in spite of the watchful and disapproving eye of their mother, played by Whitney Houston in her last film role.
Epps told EURweb.com that he was a little too immersed in his character.
"I haven't always told jokes," Epps said. "I'm from Indiana, you type my name up 'Michael Elliot Epps,' and see that I've been to the Department of Corrections and I've been on drugs and I have slapped a couple bi–es before in my life … you know but I have been through some things before in my life and I was casted for that role because I think the Lord felt like I could handle that role. And now that I'm an older person, I'm married, I got kids, my life has changed, I been blessed all of that stuff is behind me."
Despite the seriousness of his last film roles, Epps hasn't given up his day job. He's on tour through the fall on his "I'm Still Standing" tour. Here are some of his upcoming dates:
August 17-19 Denver, CO Improv
August 25 Atlanta, GA Georgia State University
August 30 Tampa, FL University of South Florida
August 31- Sep. 2 Columbia, SC Comedy House
September 8 San Diego Civic Center

|I knew you'd escape. They haven't built a circuit that could hold you!

Solar Sailer pilot
|Solar Sailer
|Out of universe information
|Cindy Morgan
Yori is a program written by Lora Baines and the romantic interest of Tron. She was in charge of the creation of digital simulations (such as the Solar Sailer).
For a short period of time, Yori, along with several other programs, was held captive by the MCP, until she was rescued by Tron.
With the help of Tron and the Tower Guardian Dumont, they communicate with Alan-One, who provided them with information necessary to destroy the MCP. They escaped Sark's forces by stealing the Solar Sailer and flying it toward the heart of the ENCOM system, where the MCP was located. During that time, Tron introduced her to Kevin Flynn (who mistakes her for Lora). Her initial reaction to Flynn implies that she may or may not have been aware of the former relationship between Flynn and Lora.
On the way to the MCP, the Solar Sailer is intercepted and destroyed by Sark's ship. He captured Yori and Flynn with the intention to derezz them along with the ship once they reached the MCP. Believing Tron perished in the crash, Yori lost hope and was almost derezzed until Flynn revived her. The two then worked together to stop the MCP using the partially destroyed carrier, unaware Tron was alive and battling Sark.
Before Flynn sacrificed himself to defeat the MCP, he shared a brief, but passionate kiss with Yori. Afterward, he leaped into the MCP's beam which allowed him to take control long enough to give Tron the chance he needed to destroy the malicious program. Yori is reunited with Tron and repeats the kiss taught to her by Flynn. She is left wondering if he is still alive, unaware that he had been transported back to the real world.
Other Appearances
Since the original film, Yori has not appeared in any other TRON series. When TRON: Legacy was announced, a fan campaign dubbed Yori Lives was created with the intention to bring Cindy Morgan and her characters Yori and Lora Baines back for the upcoming film. While Yori does not appear in Legacy, director Joseph Kosinski states that the character is still alive and well within the TRON Universe.
Currently there is speculation that she will be returning for TRON 3.
Yori is a sweet and endearing program with a childlike nature. Even in the most intense situations she manages to find something to smile about. She also retains her User's witty and sarcastic humor, moreso when she meets Kevin Flynn. She proved herself resourceful when she convinces Dumont to allow Tron into the I/O Tower to communicate with Alan-One and singlehandedly pilots the Solar Sailer with little trouble. Though it takes a moment of convincing, Yori was willing to continue on with the mission to destroy the MCP even when she believed Tron had been killed.
Skills and Abilities
Yori is an accomplished engineer who specified in the digitalization of simulations within the Grid. She is also a skilled pilot. In a deleted scene, Yori's digitalization skills are displayed to a greater extent when she transforms the appearance of her apartment from a gray and lifeless space to colorful and lively room. In the same deleted scene she is able to change the appearance of her wardrobe from a simple light suit to a more extravagant one. Unlike Tron, she lacks any indication of a Identity Disc on her back, implying her function may be strictly non-combative.
Yori's romantic relationship with Tron mirrors that of their Users, Alan Bradley and Lora Baines, in the real world, with the only major difference between them being the constant display of their affection for one another (regardless of the situation). In both the script and two deleted scenes, the nature of their relationship is explored further by addressing their sexuality. The scene (significantly altered from how it's depicted in the script) was later removed from the film because it was considered "too sentimental" at the time, something that the director regrets now. Aside from Tron, Yori is briefly attracted to Kevin Flynn, who was once romantically involved with her User.

Earth Spacedock was a gigantic Starfleet facility orbiting Earth. It was built prior to 2285 and is able to harbor numerous starships inside its upper, mushroom-formed, section.
In 2285, the USS Enterprise returned to Spacedock after ending Khan's plan to kill Admiral James T. Kirk for revenge. There, the Enterprise was to be decommissioned. Kirk, with the help of Captain Scott, Commander Uhura, Commander Hikaru Sulu and Commander Pavel Chekov, stole the Enterprise to rescue Spock's body from the Genesis Planet. The USS Excelsior attempted to give chase, but had been sabotaged by Captain Scott, and "stalled" when it attempted to jump to transwarp. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)
In 2286, an unknown probe disabled the entire starbase when the probe reached Earth orbit. The shutdown happened before any vessels within, including the Excelsior, could be launched, resulting in the shutdown of all vessels inside. When Kirk and his crew had resolved the crisis, he was demoted to captain, but was offered command of the USS Enterprise-A, which was waiting at Earth Spacedock. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home)
The Enterprise-A remained at Spacedock while Captain Scott worked to resolve design flaws made apparent after the ship's maiden voyage. (Star Trek V: The Final Frontier)
The Enterprise-A was kept at Spacedock prior to its ill-fated trip to escort Klingon Chancellor Gorkon to a peace conference on Earth in 2293. Kirk ordered an undocking at impulse speed, despite the fact that regulations specified thrusters only. While Lieutenant Valeris, the ship's helmsman, initially questioned the captain's order, she successfully performed the departure and later admitted she "always wanted to try that."
Following the Khitomer Conference, the Enterprise-A was to return to Spacedock to be decommissioned. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
In an alternate timeline, Harry Kim and Tom Paris stole the runabout USS Yellowstone from Spacedock. (VOY: "Non Sequitur")
- It was not made clear whether this was intended to be the same Spacedock as seen in the films, as the Star Trek Encyclopedia speculates. The only view of the station was of a set of doors, themselves stock footage of the Dyson Sphere doors from TNG: "Relics".

Earth Spacedock was designed by David Carson and Nilo Rodis and first seen in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. The model was built at Industrial Light & Magic. It has been suggested, by Mike Okuda among others, that the Spacedock facility is over three miles in height.
The interior of Spacedock was represented by a large set. The original from Star Trek III: The Search for Spock was destroyed after the end of filming. The production crew for Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home had to rebuild the entire set from scratch.
Footage of Earth Spacedock was re-used more than once in Star Trek: The Next Generation with the USS Enterprise-D superimposed over the motion-picture Enterprise:
- TNG: "11001001" as Starbase 74
- TNG: "Remember Me" as Starbase 133
- TNG: "Ensign Ro" as Lya Station Alpha
- TNG: "Phantasms" as Starbase 84
The enclosure around Drafting Room 5 at Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards, as seen in "Booby Trap", was also quite similar to the interior of this type of Spacedock.
It is probable, though unconfirmed, that this facility is either identical with, or a part of, the never-mentioned-but-all-but-mandated-to-exist Starbase 1.
In an alternate timeline in Star Trek: Armada, the Borg either destroy or assimilate spacedock.

One of head coach Brad Lambert's original hires in 2011, James Adams was part of the program's first five staff members that helped lay the 49ers football foundation. Originally hired as a defensive positions coach, he was later named Secondary Coach and oversaw a secondary that ranked 25th in the FCS with 15 interceptions during the 49ers inaugural season. Charlotte added another 13 INT's in 2014.
He was a Defensive Assistant Coach for Mike Ayers at Wofford in 2010, serving primarily as the Cornerbacks Coach and with special teams. Wofford owned the Southern Conference's top defense in 2010, ranking first in the league in both total defense and passing defense and second in rushing defense.
Prior to joining Wofford's staff, Adams worked alongside Lambert at Wake Forest as the Recruiting Assistant in 2008 and the Offensive Graduate Assistant in 2009.
A former Wake Forest linebacker whose career was cut short by a knee injury, Adams graduated from Wake Forest in 2006. A Durham native who attended Northern Durham High School, Adams was recruited to Wake Forest by 49ers offensive coordinator Jeff Mullen. Adams was active in community service projects throughout his college career.
"Very high character," Lambert said. "He's everything we want in our program in how we want our players treated and coached. He was a really good player and he's a very knowledgeable football coach. He's such a high-character guy -- and everything we're looking for in an assistant coach. (North Carolina) will be a focus for us in recruiting -- and having James, who is from North Carolina and played at Wake -- that's an attractive thing."
Adams and his wife, Tori, have a daughter Londyn and they live in Charlotte.

Clean Power Plan May Yield Billions in Economic Benefits and New Jobs
Earlier this month, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released their proposed Clean Power Plan. As readers of this blog are already aware, the Clean Power Plan proposes carbon emission standards for coal-fired power plants, which are the single largest source of carbon pollution in the U.S., generating approximately one-third of all domestic greenhouse gas emissions. Some specifics are that under the Clean Power Plan, states must expand their energy sources and use solar (photovoltaic and solar thermal), wind, geothermal, sustainably sourced biomass, biogas, and low-impact hydrology in order to decrease their carbon emissions.
Did you know that renewable energy technologies are characteristically more labor-intensive than intensely mechanized fossil fuel technologies? This means that the potential economic benefits may be substantial; not to mention the significant benefits for our climate and health.
The solar industry employed over 100,000 workers in jobs ranging from solar manufacturing and sales to installation according to the Solar Foundation in 2011. Solar jobs grew by 20% percent in 2013 and 2014 is expected to create 22,000 jobs. Furthermore, these statistics were reported before the EPA plan was released, which may further boost the renewable job sector.
Let's look at wind energy. The amount of domestically manufactured equipment used in wind turbines doubled from 35% in 2006 to 70% in 2011 with 560 factories directly employing 75,000 full-time employees.
The hydroelectric power industry also plays a role. Statistics show in 2009 it employed 250,000 people. As many as 700,000 jobs could be generated if the hydropower industry installs a new capacity of 23,000 – 60,000 megawatts (MW) by 2025. Rounding out our look at the renewable energy sector, the geothermal industry directly employed 5,200 people in 2010.
The Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) estimated in 2009 that a national, renewable electricity standard attempting to cut 25% of carbon emissions by 2025 would generate 297,000 jobs, $263.4 billion in new capital investment, $13.5 billion in income to farmers, ranchers, and rural landowners, and $11.5 billion in new local tax revenues. Remember, the EPA proposed reducing carbon emissions from existing power plants by 30% below 2005 levels by 2030. So the potential economic benefits may increase over the UCS's estimates.
With these figures, we're not even taking into account a complete picture of the potential economic benefits from expanded renewable energy sources. Think about how direct job creation leads to indirect job creation. For example, when you hire additional employees, you may very well need a larger Human Resources staff.
All of this comes at a time when our country could deeply benefit from economic stimulation. The U.S. economy is still anemic, with unemployment rates remaining high, and a disturbing national debt that's expected to reach $20 trillion by 2020. We must embrace win-win scenarios such as these that combine healing our ailing planet with economic recovery. It's past time to forge the path to a low-carbon future.

Global Energy Focus on Renewables
Those of us living in the United States can easily get wrapped up in the domestic energy picture, but it is important to stop and take a look at how renewables are doing in other countries too.
If you peruse a list of countries by 2008 emissions, the top emitter of carbon dioxide is currently China, followed closely by the U.S. China accounts for 23.5% of world emissions, and the U.S. is responsible for 18.27%. However, the good news is that China's renewable-energy industry is currently on the upswing due to supportive government policies and generous subsidies; so much so that they've achieved the height of the world's wind and solar industries. We've all heard the phrase, "Everything is made in China." The U.S. does import many goods from China, but a report released this week titled, "Advantage America" analyzed trade between the two countries in solar, wind and smart-grid technology and services in 2011.
The analysis, by Bloomberg New Energy Finance and Pew Charitable Trusts, showed $6.5 billion in renewable energy technology and services traded between the U.S. and China. But the U.S. sold $1.63 billion more to China than it imported.
It's good to see both countries making such strides in renewable energy. Oftentimes, the countries are perceived as being in competition with one another, but a more accurate picture would be that they are interdependent. The bottom line is that both countries should be doing as much as possible to focus on renewables, especially considering they're the top two carbon dioxide emitters on the planet. And the global interest and investments in renewables doesn't stop there.
Saudi Arabia, a country with the world's second largest oil reserves, is beginning a green revolution. This week, Saudi King Abdullah revealed ambitious plans to develop renewable energy programs that will produce 54,000 megawatts of electricity by 2032 as part of a strategy to save 1.2 million barrels of their oil per day for export.
King Abdullah City for Atomic and Renewable Energy (KA-Care) is a strategy paper set up by King Abdullah in 2010 to develop alternative energy sources so the country won't have to burn millions of barrels of oil a year on power generation. KA-Care outlines the preliminary phases of the kingdom's agenda for its energy future and focuses on thermal solar, photo-voltaic solar, wind, geothermal and waste-to-energy. Much of the desert landscape in the Persian Gulf is well suited to solar energy production; a fact that has not escaped the Saudi's neighbor, the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
The UAE, with 8% of the world's proven oil reserves, has also embarked on a major renewables program, which focuses on nuclear and solar energy production. By taking a look at the global energy picture, we see that even those countries with vast fossil fuel resources recognize the finite limitations of their reserves and the importance of investing in sustainable energy projects, which is great news in the fight against climate change. Every country on the planet contributes to global warming, and every country will have to do their part in order to pave the way to a sustainable energy future.

Two long rows of Maasai warriors lock their walking staffs overhead, creating a pathway through which you walk with your betrothed, hand in hand, entering a new life together amid the chanting song of the warriors and the Maasai women surrounding them and throwing flower petals.
Or you exchange vows barefoot on a sugar-white beach beneath the great blue dome of the sky. A full-sailed wooden dhow is anchored off-shore in the gin-clear sea, waiting to take you away on a honeymoon adventure like no other—after your island reception, of course.
Perhaps instead your wedding day is old-fashioned safari chic—the groom in tweed and linen, the bride in crisp white muslin, tying the knot in a colonial club where Hemingway and Roosevelt once hung their hats. High tea is served to the bridesmaids as they prepare, and your wedding party is transported from place to place in vintage automobiles.
And these are just a few of the many options for a destination wedding in the romantic wilds of Africa—the birthplace of humanity and the inspiration for romances from Karen Blixen's Out of Africa to Katherine Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart's love in The African Queen. Hold your ceremony in the shadow of majestic Mount Kenya; take your wedding party to an exclusive location via old-fashioned railways; or pledge your love in a hot air balloon whilst floating over the Maasai Mara. The possibilities are as varied as they are exhilarating.
A wedding is the one chance that a bride and groom have to celebrate the beginning of their new life together with their friends and family. An exotic destination wedding is a holiday away from the ordinary—a venture into the realm of the extraordinary as a celebration of your love.
Each wedding is as unique as the couple, and our safari specialists are experts at creating the ceremony of your dreams, giving every last detail the attention it deserves—after all, we were drawn to our profession by the undeniable romance of safari life.
Create your own fairy tale—anything you desire—and it will be our pleasure to make it happen.

Just One Day
Just One Day is a non-profit organization which helps retuning soldiers transition back into civilian life. Since 2010 the group has held over 20 events taking the Wounded Transition Battalion fishing all over the state of Colorado. Eagle Claw is proud to support the Just One Day organization and all military personnel.
The latest event was held in beautiful Keystone, CO. A van drove up from Fort Carson with 10 wounded soldiers. The soldiers and the volunteers all met up at Summit Fly Shop located on the Plaza of Keystone Lake. Chip Rogers, the owner, supplied the soldiers with fly rods and flies. "As an American, I feel it is my duty to help support these guys. I am honored to take time out of my day for the time they served us." Chip Rogers expressed his feelings on the event.
Once the line hit the water the smiles started to grow. All of the soldiers had hooked into fish within the first 30 minutes. Marty Riddle and Lance Lynch represented Eagle Claw and assisted in tying knots, netting fish, and taking pictures of the grinning soldiers.
After an amazing morning of hooking into huge rainbow trout we stopped for lunch at Pizza on the Plaza. This gave the soldiers a break from fishing and the first time to talk about some of fish that were caught in the morning. As the soldiers ate we held a drawing for various prizes including Eagle Claw rods and guided fishing trips.
The soldiers were so grateful that an organization would take the time and give them a day away from work. Each of them took a slightly different interpretation of what Just One Day means to them. Here are a few quotes from the soldiers:
"It really relieves stress. I have PTSD and it gives me time to get out of the house. All of these guys have the same problems, and fishing really helps" – Jesse Neely
"This is a great opportunity to meet new people. It help us open up and be comfortable talking about the hard things. This event allows me to focus on the good times." – Mike Contreras
"This event helps us build strong bonds with each other. It gives us a day that we will be taking about for months." Staff Sergeant Troy Patterson.

Pulling a Screen: Kitty Defense
Posted by Miriam | Filed under Musings
We have a kitty at our house and she loves nothing more than to curl up in a warm cozy place and sleep there for an eternity whilst shedding what often seems to be half her body weight in fur all over her current nap locale of choice. When we were expecting our son, I was concerned about our kitty deciding that our son's crib was the most awesome nap place of all time and taking up residence in there. Now that our son is a year old, I realize that our cat will never go anywhere near that annoying little human who's main purpose in life is to try and catch her…but I was a new parent, so I didn't know. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how we would keep the kitty out of our son's crib until I remembered the solution my sister had gone with, which was to install a screen door into the nursery. Of course, at first mention of this idea to anyone they immediately assumed we had a big, white, metal, hulking screen door in mind…but take a look at these pretty, practical, wood screen door solutions:

Re: Blocking
I do have an interest in the wiki's improvement, I would say my problem is over-zealousness. I know it can, and often does come across as harsh, I don't deny it. I just see so much vandalism that it puts me on red alert. I had blocked the user who edited Temari's page because of amount of content removed. Looking at the comparison between pages, it looked like simple mass removal of content. The one who removed Wood Release from Senju clan was because it was done so despite the clear explanation in the article that it was that kekkei genkai that made them particularly known in the world. The one who edited FTG and Kushina was because it added that Naruto used FTG, despite the in page warning not add him uncommented, and the removal of Kushina being actually married, though in hindsight, that might have been due to lack of a reference in that section. This isn't me saying "this is why I'm right", just showing what I saw. I know the blocking policy exists, which is why many of the blocks I perform have short expiration dates. You're not being unpleasant, you're actually being helpful. It's good to have someone pointing out when you're over-reaching. And about the double posting, that happened to me earlier today as well. Happened with this post, and something I posted in another user's talk page as well. I think it might eb a bug in the "leave a message" feature.

Page of Jutsus.
Where is the full page of all of the jutsus for a specific character? For Example, if you want to see Danzo's full list of jutsus, where should you go? I clicked the Jutsu link, but it didn't take me to the original list of all jutsus.--Vineet Gaara Rajput (talk) 22:17, February 5, 2012 (UTC)
I did not actually mean to edit that page btw, I meant to edit my own. I was just fooling around until I realized I had edited that page by accident. Still new. Like I said, sorry about that. --SensuiHaskeru (talk) 09:35, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
Wait, what? Your talking like you have already answered me before.....Vineet Gaara Rajput (talk) 02:33, April 29, 2012 (UTC)
Nature Type
The Nature type that is below each character's page is not there. For example, if you go to Naruto Uzumaki's page and scroll down to where it says 'Nature Type', the nature type that he has(wind release) appears like this '$s${{#negref:Wind Release~~Affinity|$s$|$ref$|$ref$}} (Affinity)' when it should just say 'Wind Release' with a link to the page of Wind release.

Regarding Obito protection through 2013
Yeah, to make that a bit clearer. Before my last change in the protection status, the article was protected by Jacce against unregistered edits through 2013, because the Tobi/Obito edits were very prevalent. When I changed it, in order to preserve the expire date of the previous protect, I just changed the user setting from auto-confirmed to sysop. Once the article was properly updated, I was going to change the setting back to auto-confirmed users. Just to clear things up. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 00:46, August 30, 2012 (UTC)

Could you not spam my email box with 106 "Snapper2 deleted this image" mail messages ? --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | My Wiki | Channel 09:01, October 28, 2012 (UTC)
- Some of the images you deleted weren't just used on my userpage: they were used on talkpages as well. It's not like it'll happen again anyway since I don't really care for uploading images here anymore (I just get a pile of earache just for doing it anyway and there's already someone here who does what I did better anyway [no, it's not Droidkaju: it's Aditya Akz]). --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | My Wiki | Channel 21:24, October 28, 2012 (UTC)
The template should be working properly now.
No guarantee now. — UltimateSupreme ƒ(♫) 05:10 UTC, Monday, 29 October 2012
- The conditional does not need to be there. If you look at previous uses of this template, you will see that you cannot use parser functions in templates which require Substitution: it just causes the parser function to be substituted in as well, adding needless characters to pages. If you know of a way to make the parser function work but not have the code substituted when the template is used, I'm all ears but it can stay without the conditional until that time comes. --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | My Wiki | Channel 12:46, October 29, 2012 (UTC)
Not really interested in continuing this any further.... Just thought that it would atleast prevent this (which is not really necessary or is it? Linking to the policy should suffice imo). Do as you want.— UltimateSupreme ƒ(♫) 12:51 UTC, Monday, 29 October 2012

Rock Lee & His Ninja Pals Deletion
Was there any reason as to why this section was deleted from the episode guide? As far as i'm concerned the page is called "List of Animated Media". Is it not animated media? You allow video game clips as OVAs but not TV episodes that air weekly? At least have the decency to give me a reason before deleting.--DuelMaster93 (talk) 03:49, January 28, 2013 (UTC)
Never the less we should put a link in the "List of Animated Media" page. We can just put 'Rock Lee & His Ninja Pals' & then 'see: Spring of Youth Wiki'--DuelMaster93 (talk) 17:58, January 28, 2013 (UTC)
That section is easily be missed. The heading needs to be named properly to 'Spin-Off Series'--DuelMaster93 (talk) 18:07, January 28, 2013 (UTC)
RE: Edits
I don't have an issue with anyone undoing my edits or disagreeing with me, but Cerez, yeah I have an issue with him doing that. The guy particularly stalks almost every edit I make, reverts them and disagrees with everything I do. If I get involved in a discussion, Cerez jumps in to oppose my opinion, whether it is about a relevant article or not. Every time something new in the Naruto media shows up, Cerez immediately gets on it and he should be the only one to do it. The guy is a edit hog who feels he controls this entire wikia and has the mentality that he thinks he is a mod. Everytime I edit something, Cerez comes running and rewrites what I wrote using big words. I know it's a wikia for everyone to edit but it's very irriatating when someone like Cerez thinks nothing is good unless he did it. Deva 27 was exactly like Cerez until the latter came along and took the throne. Cerez will not just leave me alone and he thinks whatever I add is not important. --OmegaRasengan (talk) 23:14, January 30, 2013 (UTC)
Rollback power
Hi Snapper and how are you? Hope to be fine. I ask you what are the conditions that make the user here to have the rollback power? Thanks —Shakhmoot (Talk) 20:17, February 15, 2013 (UTC)
- There are none. Fellow rollbackers and sysops can give the power if they feel the user can be trusted to have it (after making a reasonable number of contributive edits). :) --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel 20:22, February 15, 2013 (UTC)
I can't think of a better place to put this. What exactly is Rollback? I've heard of it multiple times, but i've never really understand what it was. Is it like reverting?220.127.116.11 (talk) 20:29, February 15, 2013 (UTC) Yomiko-chan
- Basically, if a user makes 5 edits in a row that are all vandalism, rollback undo's all 5 edits and restores the page to the last revision from another user. --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel 20:30, February 15, 2013 (UTC)
- I was thinking carefully about this before asking this question. Sometimes as Speysider said, the vandalism occurs several times in row of a certain article. This power saves time and effort. And about my answer, you could say "Yeah!!" —Shakhmoot (Talk) 20:41, February 15, 2013 (UTC)

The image is of better quality than File:Forest of death.png and since my image was not the same as that one, I had to upload it on a new name.

Can you please do something about him? I can't stand him getting involved in all my discussions when he is just going to disagree. Yes, there are disagreements in discussions, but Cerez always aims to be that one person to disagree when it comes to my topics. Just recently, he started the name calling game because I told him to back off. I admit, I may not act mature at times but I don't go calling him names like he did me. And knowing him, he's going to come running over here. --OmegaRasengan (talk) 07:15, February 19, 2013 (UTC)
- I apologize for my behavior, and surprisingly, I agree with Cerez that I was acting like a dimwit. Like I said, he gets to me and always tries to find that moment to bait me. So I will try, no, I will, stop singling out Cerez or one single person that is in disagreement. But I do wish he would stop with that thing he does and I know he will continue to do it. If he does, I will not bring up the issues I have with him or him objecting to whatever is going on. --OmegaRasengan (talk) 08:16, February 19, 2013 (UTC)
- I meant him having to need to disagree every discussion or edit I'm involved. One more thing before this drama comes to an end, what did you mean by "that is annoying"? --OmegaRasengan (talk) 08:36, February 19, 2013 (UTC)
Unused images
Hi. Recently I created a template called {{Unused}} which indicates images which aren't being used on any articles. Images tagged with this template are added to the category Candidates for Deletion (Unused). Since you seem to be the one that tends to delete most unused images, you might find looking here to be more useful than searching tons of images to find unused ones: Category:Candidates for Deletion (Unused). Thanks! --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel 17:17, February 26, 2013 (UTC)

- UnusedFiles doesnot list images which are used (only) on userpages.~ UltimateSupreme 02:23, February 27, 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks UltimateSupreme for clarifying that! I thought it'd include those too but obviously not, so the category is more appropriate for actually finding every unused image on the wiki. ;) --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel 11:09, February 27, 2013 (UTC)
