It's been nearly three years, and Nidal Hasan, who is accused of murdering 13 military members and wounding 32 others, has not even went to trial yet.
Shortly after the attack, Barack Obama said to the nation, "Let's not jump to conclusions." About a year later, the killings would be labeled by the Obama administration as "workplace violence."
Hasan's trial has been on hold while the military courts decide whether Hasan, who is a Muslim, should be allowed to have a beard while in the courtroom.
Amazingly, Hasan didn't have a beard when he joined the military or the day the crimes were committed. He now decided to grow a beard before the trial so witnesses would not be able to identify him so easily and for religious purposes.
A previous judge, (Col. Gregory Gross) issued an order to forcibly shave him, but surprisingly that judge has been removed from the case.
Hasan is still receiving his full military pay and benefits while in prison, even though Army regulations prohibit beards. Hasan argues it would be a sin for him to shave it off because of his religious beliefs.
You won't hear much from the major news networks about this radical Islamist, but you will probably hear a lot about Staff Sgt. Robert Bales, who is accused of killing 19 Afghans. He served four tours in combat and has already been the subject of a pretrial hearing by the U.S. military. If convicted, he could face the death penalty.
After nearly three years of delays since the Fort Hood massacre, I think it is way past time to proceed with the Nidal Hasan trial.
The families of the deceased service members have waited long enough for justice.

Stetson University Director of Athletics Jeff Altier announced Chet Hesson as the Hatters' new Assistant Athletics Director for Compliance on Wednesday. Hesson will be responsible for the administration of a comprehensive NCAA Division I, Atlantic Sun Conference, and Pioneer League rules compliance program.
His primary duties will include investigation and reporting of rules infractions, administration of a comprehensive rules education program, preparation of waivers and releases, transfer evaluations, monitoring of playing and practicing seasons, recruiting, and more.
Hesson comes to Stetson after a stint as Assistant Director of Compliance in the University of Hawaii's athletic department. There since December of 2011, he helped develop, implement, and maintain a comprehensive, in-depth, and effective athletic compliance program for Hawaii.
Spending time as a graduate assistant in compliance at Eastern Michigan University, Hesson earned his Master of Science degree in Sports Management from the University in 2011.
Hesson received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Siena Heights University in Michigan in 2009, where he played on the basketball and track and field teams.

The Stetson men's basketball team returns to action on Monday night, hosting Southeastern in the second of three straight games at the Edmunds Center. The Hatters (1-1) and the Fire (7-1) are set to tip-off at 7:00 p.m.
Heading into the contest with the NAIA opponent, Stetson head coach Casey Alexander isn't as concerned with Monday night's result as he is with the quality of play.
"The biggest thing is how we play the game," Alexander said. "That's what I was most pleased with in the FAMU game. In the big picture, we were good. There's plenty of room for improvement, but people who watched the game should have seen that we had a team trying to do things a certain way."
The Hatters defeated Florida A&M by a score of 88-66 in their first victory of the season on Nov. 13, leading by as many as 27 and never trailing from start to finish. It marked Stetson's first win of 20 points or more since a 59-39 victory over Kennesaw State on Feb. 14, 2009, but Alexander was more impressed with his team's concentration and attitude.
"I'm still pleased with our desire to do things right," Alexander continued. "I think our effort was good, which is where all good teams start. But they're also trying to execute what we want to do on both ends of the floor, and then a step beyond that, execute a game plan that's specific to our opponent."
That opponent this week is already 7-1 on the 2012-13 season, and comes to DeLand riding a five game winning streak. Southeastern recently went a perfect 3-0 in the Hersha Hospitality Classic in Pennsylvania, defeating Florida Christian College, King's College, and Valley Forge Christian College.
"They're in a very similar spot to where we were last year, Alexander said. "They have a brand new coach, and they've got a lot of new players, so they're probably trying to find themselves. They've played a lot more games than we have, though, so they're more experienced this season than we are.
"We will prepare in the exact same fashion as we do for any team. All of our focus for this Southeastern game will be to take another step in the direction of playing the way we want to play. Regardless of who our opponent is, it's our mission to play that way for as many of those 200 minutes as we can."
Monday night will mark the first meeting between Stetson and Southeastern in the all-time history of the programs. The Hatters are perfect against the Fire's league, The Sun Conference, holding a combined record of 5-0 against Embry-Riddle, Johnson and Wales, and Webber International.
Fans can watch the game for free on HatterVision and ASun.TV with play-by-play from Robbie Aaron. The call can also be heard on WSBB 1230 AM in New Smyrna, 1490 AM in DeLand, or www.myam1230.com. Live Stats, the @StetsonMBB Twitter feed, and Hat-Alerts are also available for in-game updates.

Permatang Pasir & Old Tactics
UMNO, as a leader of BN, was expected to change their way and adopt a truly Malaysian political model to help revive the waning support of its coalition partners. But its political campaign, including the onslaught of its mouthpieces (Utusan Malaysia, Berita Harian, paid cybertroopers and a Chinese Muslim convert), implies that the party has given up on its partners to help revive the coalition.
BN as a multiracial and truly Malaysian coalition is dead. BN, with a dominant race based party and its hostile racial agenda (now overtly and openly) hopes to recapture the Malay community support by propagating 'Malay Unity' and by instilling a false sense of fear that the Malays are losing their political power because the non-Malays are now rejecting UMNO/BN.
It will be a sad moment for the country if a large segment of the Malay community accepts the argument. UMNO is still taking the community as a herd. The leaders are using the old tactics of misleading the rest and lead them to help protect the party's own political interests.
So far, there is no vital sign showing that the Malay community is reacting positively to the party's propaganda. Nevertheless, the PR coalition should shoulder some blame if the Malay community is spooked by the 'Malay unity' rhetoric. Malaysia needs the Malays to lead the way. Many leaders among the community were the first ones who would leap to defend and protect the country's fragile democracy.
Hence, the PR coalition should learn and learn quickly on how to build the confidence level and capacity of the Malay community to embrace a new people driven and Malaysian centric political model. It is a fact that the Malays were victims of unfair racial blame game and had faced unwarranted cynical remarks about their status and privileges - a fact now disputed by analysts because many Malays have not benefited from the NEP.
Non-Malay leaders in the PR coalition should recognize and play a greater role in forging a strong mutual partnership with their Malay counterparts. DAP Lim Kit Siang had warned that the coalition may be a one-term wonder if disputes are not sorted out quickly. Leaders such as Anwar Ibrahim, Zaid Ibrahim, Khalid Samad, Khalid Ibrahim and other are working relentlessly to make this multiracial coalition work.
Are the DAP leaders making the same kind of sacrifice? Its leaders are still reacting unnecessarily to show that they are protecting some symbolic 'struggles' which are closely related to the rights of Chinese e.g. the demolition of pig abattoir in Kedah, beer ban in Selangor and others. Their reactions, without considering the merit of each case, are bound to be manipulated by their opponents to benefit their own racial game.
DAP must accept the fact that the party does not have a Malaysian face yet and it must work on it. If PKR elected representatives are the weakest link in the PR coalition, the DAP is the easiest target for UMNO's racist game. The party must act swiftly to stop some unscrupulous politicians from using a lethal combination of race and religion to wreak its partnership with PAS.
Some BN leaders have predicted that a doom is near for the PR coalition since the defection of PKR's Lunas assemblyman. A few defections, mainly from tainted bad hats, will not spell a doom for the coalition. In fact, it is a good thing for the PR coalition. But a possible ideological clash between PAS and DAP, manipulated by their enemies, can prove to be destructive to the nascent coalition.
In the event PR does not survive, we must remember not to put the blame squarely on the shoulders of PKR leaders. We have to acknowledge the fact that the coalition, despite its intention to fight racism, is a victim of its own ethno-religious egoism.

I rather embrace Islamic Laws then to let BN continue to rape us. BN is finished.
Agree with anonymous, what is so wrong about Islamic law? I am Malaysian Chinese, I support Pas rather than MCA/Gerakan who are parasites living on stolen rakyat money together with Umnoooooo.
As a Chinese, I pick PAS over UMNO anytime!!!!
- priory of jenin said...
This article simply the best that i could find today in numerous PR/BN Blogs. But i beg to differ with ur conclusion that if PR destinied not to last long, I would still blame the leaders,be it PKR,DAP and PAS big guns. Time is movin so fast but they still "terbawa2" dgn so called "tsunami politik" GE12, n to see Anwar finally admit PKR is the weakest link in PR ,something that he shud do earlier rather than be so boastful..
Well it's was never too late for Anwar to admit his flaws rather than the BN/UMNO GOMEN... Atleast he is humble and honest enough..
So wat's up muhyiddin and Co.. still think u guys are the best? haha.. Carry on dreaming.. When u wakes up u will find everthing is gone.. trust me.. better take few more trip in the army copper cause u might not have the chance anymore
Viva Malaysia
kkp, umno is strategizing and pushing the agenda that the ends justifies the means. they will go to all lengths, from intimidation, macc threats, bribery all the way to murder, to stay in power. they have the $$$ and the power (in pdrm/macc/tainted judiciary, umno trust). look at perak, its all about gamuda, greedy frogs. the same strategy is deployed in kedah, selangor...
umno never changes. but the rakyat and electorate has. quote victor hugo, "no army can stop an idea whose time has come". the path taken is becoming more and more divergent. and history has shown us that when force clashes with idealism, the end result is
either bloodshed or banana republic darkness over the country.
it is very sad...i dont blame the long queue at foreign embassies applying for migration.

Whatever, BN WILL NEVER win this Permatang Pasir by election.
Anyone disagree with me ??
Ther is no such thing as malaysian chinese nor chinse malaysian, only 'other' for people like you hahaha
- BC said...
I agree with you that genuine efforts have been made by those Malay leaders of Pakatan that you named; at the same time sadly, there are many still in the background who have not been able to shed their mental yoke of fighting for narrow communal interests. This could be the bane that Pakatan will have to carry for some time still.
But does it have time to wait? The ebb and flow of politics will engulf the rakyat one way or another. And with BN having the upper hand in terms of reach and machinery, I feel worried.
Anwar has in all humility admitted that there have been some cases of (s/)elected representatives of his party, after being measured and weighed, have been found wanting. However, Datuk Seri, the excuse may not be good enough for those less forgiving. In that light the time is now to take another look at who make up the front liners of this struggle for a better tomorrow.
Chauvinists in the form of PKR's Zul (Kulim) - not sure about PKR's Mike Manika (Kapar)- has he changed his tune?
And Kedah's Thomas Su (DAP) and PAS's Hassan Ali (Selangor) indeed have to really engage in some introspection.
How sincere are Pakatan representatives who have beem entrusted with this struggle for a better future for us and our future generations?
Are they Malaysians or are they respectively Chinese, Malays and Indians first in making a better Malaysia? If the answer is a hesitant one, then please go away.
Or are they there just to grab opportunities that come along?
And then there are non-performing ones, like the bad rubbish who had decided to go independent; the one with 4 wives.
To all Muslim brothers and sisters, forgive me if it seems that I am casting aspersion on Islam. It is not at all my intention.
A man with four wives, must either be a saint or a rascal, to pull it through during these modern times. Let's be human and totally frank about it. In all aspects - physiological, financial, emotional, social and psychological - it is a daunting task to carry.
A saint or a rascal? And even without the benefit of hindsight, it is easy to see which category the person falls under.
With four wives, and to meet the demands of them all, simply makes it impossible to be fair. And being a wakil rakyat at that, a public figure whose time is not his own anymore. That Datuk Seri Anwar, is a blunder, at best a poor choice.
Had I known it, I would not want to have my wakil rakyat having to juggle his time among his four wives and the rakyat. Something's got to give.
And provide for so many households, where to get the moneylah? Temptation is great to go astray where pickings are rich.
Times are different now. The spirit and intentions in which that command (of the eligibility to marry 4 wives)was given were so different compared to now.
So, shall we propose that a checklist be made?
Four wives, turun sikit saham, pasai dia tak dak masa nak jaga rakyat!
The people shall vote and they will vote intelligently; bearing in mind the pros and cons of the candidates. PKR or UMNO? It is the people to decide, despite what politians may say, promise, or predict. Let the truth prevail as the truth lies in the hands of the people.
In my opinion, PKR stands a better chance as it has a more sincere face, truthful and willing to serve the people.
- Wizzerd said...
For a racist regime like UMNO, it will never change. What other platform can it survive if not for the race/religion? I would see that it will continue to use these to the hilt as their only strategy, much to the detriment of its partners in the coalition.
A zero sum game no doubt, MCA/Gerakan/MIC & Sabah Sarawak parties are getting weaker by the day as UMNO ride roughshot over them.
As these little brothers paled into oblivion, these parties will disintegrate..by default PR parties will gain a walkover in more areas in the Peninsular, leaving only Sabah Sarawak parties to prop up the regime.PKR is slowly making inroads in the East, support will be consolidated..They might win a few seats there,, east Malaysians would play a crucial part in getting rid of BN.
By then, UMNO will run out of ideas..
It is just a matter of time before BN/UMNO's demise.
Just be patient, PR.

Senate Bill 160, known as "Roberta's Law",
became effective on March 22, 2013. Roberta's Law

convicted of Aggravated Murder, Murder, a first, second
or third degree offense of violence or is serving a life
sentence, the victim will be automatically notified of
specified events, regardless of whether the victim has
requested notification. Roberta's Law also provides an
opt-out mechanism for those victims who do not wish to
be automatically notified of certain inmate release and
transfer proceedings.
In order to opt out of receiving these
notifications a "
Notification Opt Out
" form must be on file
with the Office of Victim Services.
The signed "Victim Notification Opt Out" form can

PLEASE NOTE: In addition to the registration above, victims can also register with VINE (Victim Information and Notification Everyday) to have the most comprehensive notification services possible. VINE links county sheriff and statewide correctional facilities to make the status of offenders available 24 hours-a-day, 365 days-a-year.
In the early 1980's, the Ohio Parole Board began notifying victims, who requested, of upcoming parole hearings. The Parole Board began involving victims and immediately recognized the value of their input into the decision-making process. This was strengthened in 1987 by Senate Bill 6, which gave victims of serious crime the right to submit a statement to the Parole Board about their experience prior to the offender's hearing. By late 1994, the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction began developing a plan to provide comprehensive victim services throughout the Department. Senate Bill 2, the "truth in sentencing" bill, effective July 1, 1996, took another step forward in helping transform the criminal justice system into the victim's justice system. This bill mandates that victims have input from the time of an arrest through trial and sentencing, incarceration, and for any type of early release. Senate Bill 2 also formally created the Office of Victim Services within the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction, strengthening the plans already developing within the Department.[Back to top]
The Ohio Council on Victims Justice plays an active role in the Department's efforts to improve victim services. They provide input and make suggestions for operational changes that impact victims and serve as liaisons between the Department and the constituents of Council members.
Each correctional institution and parole office has a staff assigned to serve as the "victim coordinator." These staff respond to victim issues and concerns at the local level and serve as liaisons to the Office of Victim Services.
In addition to the above services, victims of inmates incarcerated in Ohio's prisons may register with the Victim Notification Section of the Parole Board. They are notified prior to any release consideration of the inmate. At this time they may either write to the Board or personally voice their concerns in an interview with a Parole Board staff member. A "victims' conference day" is held once a month for this purpose.
The victim or designated representative wishing to provide additional statements and/or information to the Parole Board and/or Adult Parole Authority should send those documents to: Office of Victim Services, 770 West Broad Street, Columbus, OH 43222.
The mission of the Office of Victim Services is to work in partnerships to make a positive difference in the lives of crime victims, by affording them meaningful participation throughout the Ohio corrections process.
Victims can also register with VINE in addition to their registration with the Office of Victim Services. Registering for both systems will allow victims to have the most comprehensive notification services possible. VINE links county jails and statewide correctional facilities to make the status of offenders available 24 hours-a-day, 365 days-a-year. Anyone may call the tollfree VINE hotline to access custody information, available in English and Spanish. Callers may also register directly with VINE to receive telephone notification of changes in custody. A live operator is available 24 hours-a-day to assist callers in accessing information or registering for notification.
For defendant custody information, to locate an offender in a county jail, state prison, or state juvenile facility, or to register for notification call 1-800-770-0192. Follow the computer prompts given by the VINE service. During registration you will be asked to provide a telephone number and select a 4-digit PIN code. The PIN is a 4-digit number chosen by you. Your PIN is used to confirm receipt of notification calls from VINE. Choose a number that is easy for you to remember and write it down.
When registering for VINE, please have the following information: offender name, inmate number (for county inmates), or institution number (for state prison or juvenile offenders).
Q. What if I'm not at home or my phone is busy when VINE calls?
A. The VINE service is designed to allow every opportunity for you to be notified. If there is no answer or the line is busy, VINE will continue to call for a minimum of 24 hours. VINE will leave a message on an answering machine but will continue to call for 24 hours or until the PIN is entered.
Q. Can I register more than one telephone number with VINE?
A. Yes, but each registration must be done separately and requires a PIN. You may use the same PIN for several registrations.
Q. Does VINE ensure my safety?
A. The VINE program is designed to provide you with quick and easy access to offender information and to assist in preparing for an offender's release. Do not depend solely on VINE or any other program for your safety.
Q. Who sponsors VINE?
A. VINE is provided by Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine's Office, the Buckeye State Sheriff's Association, the Ohio Prosecuting Attorneys Association, the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction, and the Ohio Department of Youth Services and is funded by a Victims of Crime Act grant.

The surrogate welcomed a boy Tuesday in Pennsylvania, according to TMZ. When contacted by PEOPLE, Shepherd declined to comment about the birth.
Her estranged husband Lamar Sally has asked for custody of the child in court documents, but last week he said the separated couple has not yet reached an agreement.
"It's still unclear what's going on," he told PEOPLE.
Shepherd, 47, and Sally, 43, shocked fans when they split in May after almost three years of marriage. The breakup instigated an ugly legal battle that coincided with her first husband Jeff Tarpley's petition for custody of their son.
Tarpley accused Shepherd of neglecting 9-year-old Jeffrey for her career, an attack that spurred the actress to defend working mothers on her show. A judge denied Tarpley's request in July.
Shepherd, who will star as the wicked stepmother in Broadway's Cinderella starting Sept. 9, alluded to the troubles to come after that courtroom victory.
"Keep the prayers coming," she Tweeted. "Still got more battles."

NEWFANE – A Bank of America branch at 2700 Main St. was robbed at midmorning Wednesday, prompting Niagara County Sheriff's officials to put nearby schools on lockdown as a precaution, authorities said.
The robber was described as a light-skinned black male in his early 30s, wearing a black leather jacket, a black beanie-style hat, and glasses with tape over his eye and nose.
Sheriff's officials said on their Facebook page that the lockdown of Newfane schools was a precaution and that there were no threats against the schools. Sheriff's cars were patrolling near the schools.

Comments about African Botanics Marula Neroli Infused Oil, 2 oz:
I have always loved the idea of oils for my extremely dry, sensitive skin but none of the ones I've tried (argan, rosehip, baobab, tamanu, almond, jojoba, apricot kernel, avocado, olive, coconut, evening primrose) have ever made any difference. Some actually made my skin worse.
I was recently given a sample of Marula oil (different brand) and it did nothing but disappoint. I later learned that the ratio of Marula oil to the other essential oils in the product was extremely low and that the essential oils blend was quite irritating to my particular skin. Not to mention that I was a little peaved in that I was initially told the product was 100% Marula oil, and not a "blend."
I did extensive research and came across the African Botanics Marula Oil and took a chance (I bought the Marula/Neroli version as I adore neroli oil). I am so extremely happy with this product!!! It is light, absorbs quickly, and is ultra-soothing to the skin. The neroli scent is quite strong/sweet at first but it mellows quickly to the neroli aroma I'm quite familiar with. It is a bit pricey but it will last a long time because a small amount provides more than enough coverage.

Although Ashley Kodluk didn't have much experience with an iPad, she thought it could be a helpful tool in the classroom. With a little research, the Davis & Elkins College senior from Logan Township, N.J., found some practical and efficient methods for making learning fun during her student teaching program at Third Ward Elementary School in Elkins.
"We (as a class) had discussed the use of iPads in classrooms, and I asked if student teachers could use them," Kodluk said. "So, the Education Department provided iPads for us to try out."
As part of a pilot program, nine iPads are available for nursing and education professors at D&E.

Ashley Kodluck, standing, a senior Elementary Education major at Davis & Elkins College, demonstrates to her classmates some applications she finds useful for incorporating an iPad in the classroom. From left are: Trisha Walters, a freshman from Huntington; Elizabeth Chaar, a sophomore from Charleston; Trevor Wratchford, a freshman from Moorefield; Amanda Poling, a sophomore from Mill Creek; and Assistant Professor of Education Jennifer Tesar.
Jennifer Tesar, assistant professor of Education, said she and her education students are still learning the different functions of an iPad, and Kodluk's findings have opened the door to nearly endless possibilities.
"When I gave Ashley the iPad, I said, 'See what programs are out there and which ones will best meet your needs,'" Tesar said.
Kodluk said she used the Internet to search for application software, more commonly known as apps, and found that the ones she liked best were free.
For example, she has deemed Teacher Kit as "my best friend right now." The app allows the creation of a seating chart, complete with photos of the students, that Kodluk used to take attendance and behavior notes. She also downloaded a grade book app that helped her organize reports.
Although those apps made it easier for Kodluk to keep track of classroom progress for 22 first-graders and 20 fourth-graders, she says it's the interactive programs that offer the most educational - not to mention fun - benefits.
Music from iTunes "gets kids up and moving," while other songs such as "Days of the Week Rap" help "kids learn and keeps their attention," she adds. "The effects music can have on teaching in your classroom are awesome."
Kodluk also selected other apps that include spelling and word games, flash cards, and sock puppets to teach writing; puzzles for enhancing sensory integration; and money-counting games to sharpen math skills.
"Kids love it," she says. "Whether we were participating in stations or as a group, they couldn't wait to get their hands on an iPad. They wanted to be able to use it every day, so they were very careful with it. I told them if they pick it up, to make sure they used both hands."
As the semester finished, Kodluk made a presentation to a group of D&E education students, showing them her favorite apps and sharing her classroom experiences. Her prediction is that iPads may become a more commonplace tool for teachers, and she advises future educators to "check out the apps and see what's good for you."
Student teaching is the culminating experience in D&E's teacher education program. Teacher candidates work full-time in public school classrooms under the mentoring of a qualified co-operating teacher. By the end of two seven-week teaching placements, student teachers have gained valuable experience in planning, teaching and managing a classroom.

a popular word among motorcyclists and bicyclists for four wheeled motor vehicle drivers. The term is often used in a derogative sense, because the car body effectively forms a cage, isolating the said driver from having to interact with other road users.
The term was coined by motorcyclists.

holla, lizzie! e-mail me to claim your loot :)
this year, i told mr. anderson that all i wanted for christmas was to spend a day shopping with him (and only him---well, and maybe olive).
wow...you are amazing at group shots...your children are beautiful! Happy New Year!ReplyDelete
Your family is beautiful. I read your blog all the time, yet the photos still catch me off guard! Even in these posed pictures, you can tell how much they all love each other. It's awesome.
Have fun with your iphone. I would like to say I'm above being in love with mine, but I'd be a liar. However, while I love the looks you can get with Instagram, and I like how easy it is to share pictures, it is really, really slow on my phone, so pictures of people always end up blurry. I guess I'll just have to marvel at how cute your kids look in Instagram photos!
geez, they are all so dang cute.ReplyDelete
yay for iphones and instagram! :)
love those photos of all the littles on christmas eve.

Once considered the only method of getting mail, the historic but archaic Pony Express was reenacted during a lively, popular 154th Anniversary Re-Ride throughout Nebraska and Kansas on Friday, June 20.
Since the "Pony Express" originated at its historical end points, stretching from Sacramento, Calif., to St. Joseph, Mo., officials scheduled the start of the full 2014 "Re-Ride," or re-enactment ride, for June 18 in California and wrapping up June 20 in Missouri.
Eagerly poised and patiently awaiting the horseback riders clomping into Hebron, Neb., from the West, the Thayer County Visitors Committee and about two dozen visitors gathered with the riders at noon just off the east side of Highway 81, two miles north of Hebron, where both the historic Pony Express and Oregon Trail monuments are erected.
As some riders dismounted, they greeted the others who had been excitedly preparing their horses and themselves to begin the next two to three miles of the re-ride.
Some shared that they hoped to carry the saddlebag of mail — known in the early days as the mochila.
"The Pony Express was an unyielding way to work because it required so many people. Every few miles — they changed riders," explained Shari Apking, with the Thayer County Visitors Committee. "It was really odd, that it lasted only 18 months."
As the riders paused briefly at the historic site to greet and exchange places with the next set of riders in the unseasonably warm mid-day sun, the Thayer County Visitors Committee offered ice-cold water bottles and donuts to the riders and guests.
"After we did something special for the 150th year and also held the re-ride during other years, we actually skipped last year but a lot of riders said they missed it. So, we're enjoying having it again. They do it once a year around this time of year," Karen Keilwitz, president of the Thayer County Visitors Committee told The Fence Post at the Pony Express monument site.
Keilwitz said the historic 154th Anniversary of the Pony Express would then head east from Hebron, again switching horseback riders along Highway 53, near the town of Alexandria, and then travel through Nebraska's Jefferson County.
"Riders come through, and Thayer County does this re-ride through Thayer, and Jefferson County does it to Jefferson County, and they follow the Pony Express Route," shared Apking. "Thayer County is 24-miles square. So is Jefferson County. They go through Alexandria, since the town was on the Pony Express and on the Oregon Trail, although at that time-the town was called Meridian."
Horseback riders all cowboyed-up for the occasion from their cowboy hats down to the spurs on their boots at the Hebron site included Lyle Ladner, national president of the Pony Express Association, who came for the event from Marysville, Kan.; Lyle Gronewold, the Nebraska Division president of the Pony Express Association; Dick Heinrichs, trail director for the National Pony Express Association, who is also the Thayer County roads superintendent; and other riders who all expressed appreciation for the opportunity to be part of the remembrance of an historic event in the county and the nation.
Heinrichs told The Fence Post, that participating in the Pony Express Route is an honor and a tradition. He's been riding the Pony Express re-ride for 33 years.
"The history is really interesting. It's a combination of cowboys and history in the United States," shared Heinrichs.
Another rider, Herschel Talley of Crete, Neb., has been bucking up to the challenge for over 20 years.
"I enjoy being on this re-ride since it's part of Nebraska history. We have so many miles of the Pony Express in Nebraska," said Crete as he prepped his Quarter horse, Jerry.
For Talley, the ride was a father-daughter event, as he brought his daughter, Gwyneth, who was visiting from Los Angeles, and her Sandhills pony, Ben. Gwyneth's friend Jennifer Hiatt of Lincoln, Neb., drove the truck that pulled their horses.
Gwyneth also shared a special honor that was bestowed upon her dad Herschel; for his horseback riding savvy.
"Dad carried the Olympic Torch at the Olympic Games in Atlanta, Georgia in 1996. He carried it for a mile on horseback," Gwyneth said.
Other riders were checking on and reassuring their horses.
"I've been doing this re-ride for several years, and it's interesting to see how they used to do things," said Vaughn Hinrichs, a farmer and rancher in Belvidere.
"I like to see everyone and be involved in history," added Hinrichs, who prepared his registered Quarter horse, Sparky, for the ride. "Most people ride one mile, but I'll rider two to three miles, since I'm filling in for other people today," said Hinrichs, adding, "I couldn't imagine doing this in the heat of the day, like they did back then."
It was however, the first year for Tobin Hoffman of Alexandria, who waited nearly an hour with his Paint horse, Dizzy, for the riders to cross Highway 81.
"I just decided to do it. I plan on riding two miles and helping carry the mailbag (alternately with Vaughn,)" relayed Hoffman who modestly admitted, he used to serve overseas in the U.S. Air Force. Hoffman works for Union Pacific Railroad, which interestingly follows the Pony Express route and the old Oregon Trail. ❖

Its summer time and you know that can only mean one thing. Lacrosse Tournament season! If you're a lacrosse enthusiast this time of year is great. There's no slowing down of the offense, the defenders come out and chase and it's all run and gun.
This weekend is the Maryland State of Lacrosse Games which is being hosted in Howard County, MD. This tournament was formerly the Charm City Classic (played in Baltimore City's Patterson Park) a few years back but was moved for convenience reasons and they definitely made a great choice by doing so.
The new venues are amazing. Howard County Parks offer brand new state of the art turf fields plenty of parking and offers a great atmosphere for the games. The tournament will be held over 3 different sites, but even if that takes away from the allure of the bigger tournaments, it offers a break from all the hectic running around in between games. Most teams will be stationed at one spot all weekend which encourages sticking around in between games and watching the competition.
This year's tournament consists of 32 teams in 5 divisions (Grand Masters, Masters, Elite 1, Elite 2 and a Women's bracket).
The Men's Elite division has continuously offered the chance to see top Division 1 players, All-American's and some of the best post-collegiate teams around. If you live in the Howard County area or are only a short drive away, you should definitely pack up the family, sunscreen and shades and come check out the games this weekend.

Love letters. Two simple words that invoke completely different reactions from men and women. Women swoon at the sound of the words, men groan. How could it be that men and women are so different? A man may think that saying that he loves his girlfriend is good enough. A woman would say that is a great start and a love letter is a great way to express that love. Guys, you are in a bind! So, what are you to do? Well, I have a few ideas for you.
First of all, start slow. I mean really slow. Just leave your girlfriend a few short love notes. I am not talking about anything long and involved, but rather short and to the point. Write one or two sentences that are heartfelt and express your love for your girlfriend. You can write it in a card or on a small piece of paper. Now, really it that so hard?
Once you have your first love note for your girlfriend, leave it for her someplace that she will find it. Why not just hand her the note? Well, she will appreciate it more if it is a surprise. I know, I know, silly girl stuff. Just try it. You will thank me later.
If your girlfriend is totally unimpressed by your love note, you are probably thinking you are off the hook. Well, either you are the luckiest man on earth or your love note stunk. Would you like to know where I am putting my money?
More likely, your girlfriend was really touched that you took the time to surprise her with a nice heartfelt love note. You may have gotten a nice kiss out of the deal or maybe more (Don't tell me, I don't want to know). So now you have gotten some positive feedback and a little appreciation for taking a small step out of you comfort zone. So now you do know that you are going to have to do another one right? Right? Oh come on! It wasn't that hard and it make her really happy. Yeah, you're doing it again.
After writing a few love notes to your girlfriend, you become more comfortable expressing your love and affection for your girlfriend. She's happy. Your happy. Everybody is happy. Well, except for her old boyfriend. Now see, that made you even happier, didn't it.
So, do you think you can expand on your love notes a little bit? Maybe, just write two paragraphs. You can do that? Really? Well you have just written a short love letter.
Love notes and love letters can take a little time to write, but they will make your girlfriend very happy. And they are cheaper than roses. Wait a second. When is the last time you bought your girlfriend roses? Do you know how happy it would make if you brought her roses every once in a while...

Parks Field American claimed the 2013 South Carolina Dixie Youth Baseball AAA Minors (age 9-10) District 7 Championship, but not before Parks Field National gave the team everything it had.
After earning shutouts over Ladson and Moncks Corner earlier in the week, the Parks American All-stars clinched the district title Wednesday with a 14-13 win over Parks National. Parks American will advance to play in the state Minors tournament scheduled for July 20-25 at Wescott Park in North Charleston.
Parks American carried a 14-5 lead into the bottom half of the final inning Wednesday but had to hold off a fierce rally by Parks National, which scored 8 runs in its final turn at bat.
Collin Grooms turned in a solid performance on the mound for Parks American before running out of gas in the sixth inning. He struck out nine batters while walking five, and two of the walks came in the final inning.
Ryan Lark closed the game out and only yielded one hit and two walks while striking out two batters.
Walker Richardson led Parks American offensively, going 2 for 4 at the plate with two RBIs. Lark was 1 for 3 with four RBIs and two runs scored. Dalton Godin, Lark, Collin Grooms and Colby Shirey all reached base three times. Richardson had a triple and Grooms had a double.
Coda Westbrook led the Parks National offense, going 3 for 3 at the plate with two RBIs and two runs scored. Adam Crowder also had two RBIs and Zach Barfield scored three runs. Crowder, Barfield, Westbrook and Payne Rutherford all reached base three times. Westbrook had a triple and Barfield had a double.
Parks American went up 4-0 in the top of the first inning. Godin, Jennings Fowler and Richardson all had a hit while Lark, Wyatt Fulton and Richardson earned RBIs.
Parks American's biggest inning was the fourth when the team pushed six runs across off three hits, three walks and two Parks National errors. Jessen Heber, Lark and Grooms had the hits while Fowler, Lark, Grooms and Fulton had RBIs.
Parks American added three runs in the fifth.
Parks National got on the scoreboard in the bottom of the second when Barfield doubled and Brody Moran drove him in.
Parks National cut the lead to 5-2 with a run in the third. Rutherford received a base on balls and Crowder drove him in.
Just when it looked like Parks American was going to cruise to the championship, the Parks National lineup found its groove. The sixth-inning rally began when the team loaded the bases off a walk, a single by Moran and a Parks American error. Westbrook then singled to plate the first of his team's eight runs in the turn at bat.
Mason Hutto and Crowder also had RBI-singles during the rally while Blake Jeffcoat received a bases-loaded walk. Jeffcoat, Hutto and Rutherford scored on a combination of passed balls and wild pitches.
Parks National had its No. 2 batter up with the tying run in scoring position. On a 3-2 count, Lark sent a strike by the batter to end the game and Parks National's hopes of forcing a three-way tie for first place in the tournament.

Adventure Harbor Tours expands fleet
By Sully Witte
Captain Howie Weil has one heck of a sense of humor. And his lovely wife Katie, has the patience of a saint. Those two things have allowed Weil the opportunity to build a successful boat charter business out of Charleston Harbor.
He now owns The Charleston Explorer, one of East Coopers largest capacity charter boats.
He doesnt consider himself the smartest man in the world, but he said hes a very hard worker. That hard work paid off and afforded him room to expand his fleet. His most recent purchase was that of the Charleston Explorer - a 54 Sea Ark capable of carrying 80 people and landing on the beach.
The Charleston Explorer may be familiar to locals, as its previous owners berthed her in Charleston Harbor Marina and took her and her passengers to all the local hot spots.
This stout, industrial grade boat will once again grace the harbor, but now under the guidance of Weil.
His company, Adventure Harbor Tours was not born overnight. According to Weil he had numerous career changes but always managed to find time to screw around on boats. He got a job as a mate first on Charlestons first water taxi crewing on the weekends. He worked on gaining sea time by working for everyone else in the harbor until he got his own captains license.
I had just gotten married and was trying to live this Jimmy Buffet lifestyle, he said.
And as Weil said, it did not take a mathematician to figure out that the lifestyle really wasnt going to work. There was no future in it.
Thats when Weil decided he wanted to buy a boat.
My wife said hell no we have a wedding to pay for. But I came back to her and said what if I did some charters. I can do one charter a month make the boat payment. She said Im listening, we outlined a plan, and went for it.
Weil said that before he knew it, the phone was ringing off the hook.
Thats when he dropped everything else and focused on his new charter business.
He first had a 20 flats boat that could carry six people. One day he made nine trips to Morris Island. Working 12 hours seemed too much, so he began looking for a bigger boat.
He had a new boat that could hold 12 people. His father thought he was crazy to spend that much money. But he quickly doubled the people in half the time.
Weil said it was the only time his father admitted to perhaps being wrong.
His business has outgrown three boats and last summer ran his 36 boat at capacity all summer.
When the Charleston Explorer became available my dad gave me his blessing, he said. The trip that put Adventure Harbor Tours on the map is the three hours Morris Island trip. It is a 15 minute ride out to the island, with a quick stop next to Fort Sumter to show off the areas history. Captain Weil then lands the boat on the island, invoking a little more about the local history and nature and then the kids are sent off on the adventure to collect shells and sharks teeth. Every single day you can find sharks teeth, he said, and of course thats a hit with all ages.
This year Weil will be introducing a new nature and eco-tour on the Charleston Explorer which will be hands-on with science and nature themes with an emphasis on conservation. He likens it to a nature day camp where kids can learn to throw a cast net, pull up a crab pot, learn knots and seamanship.
The Charleston Explorer is also available for school groups, weddings, parties and private charters. And because the boat can land right on the beach, parties can be hosted on-shore as well. The boat is also enclosed, allowing it to be used year-round.
I used to be a beer and wine salesman and I had a grocery store route, Weil said. I would go in and be looking to make a sale and the manager would see me and walk the other way, he said.
Now I am in a position where people want to come and hang with me on the water. Im in a much better place. I thrive in entertaining people and this has gone very well. I get to show off this magnificent harbor. I am the luckiest guy in Charleston - no smarter - just a hard worker.

New execution mix went wrong
January 22, 2014
Something went terribly wrong Thursday when Ohio prison officials tried a new mixture of chemicals to execute a convicted murdere....
I am so sick of everyone worrying more about what the criminal had to go thru more than what the victim had to endure, poor rapist and murderer possible suffered a bit..seriously. IMO he didn't suffer enough. So very sorry to the family of the woman he harmed, they have to read that HE suffered. sickening

I had heard or seen somewhere that it looked a lot worse than it was. Apparently this mix is used in veterinary settings, and even though there is labored breathing and whatnot when the second drug is given, the first drug sedates you so deeply that any outward appearances of it being cruel aren't even remotely felt by the subject (be it animal or human). If true, nothing went wrong other than it doesn't look as pretty as with the old combination of drugs which are no longr available, and it's only cruel to those watching.

The art of having sex, without thrusting. When a couple "sticks it in" and then leaves it there to "soak." This has become a common phenomenon with certain groups of Christians(predominately Mormons) who try to circumvent the law of chastity, which in fact does not work.

girl: let's just soak on their California King instead.

Honest Kitchen Smittens Cat Treats
By greentam
from Bloomington, Indiana
Best Uses
Comments about Honest Kitchen Grain-Free Smittens 3 oz:
I had been ordering lots of different treats for my cats. This is one they just would not or could not wait for me to give to them. They riped the box open and went on ahead and they ate them up! I raise and breed Ragdolls. They love these smittens!!! I do recommend this product, though if your cats are at all like mine, you better hide them well, or they might be gone in the blink of an eye!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

STEVE LEWIS/Durango Herald
Walk around cities such as New York, Portland and San Francisco, and it�s hard to miss the clusters of brightly colored food trucks perched on corners and tucked between buildings.
Durango has yet to experience the full force of the food-truck phenomenon, but there�s reason to believe that soon may change. Several factors are at play, including city plans to address mobile vending in its planning code revisions, support for food trucks among elected officials at the city and diligent work by a few business owners to push for food cart-friendly regulations.
Currently, the city�s ordinances governing mobile vending are �a little prohibitive� for culinarily inclined entrepreneurs looking to start food trucks that would travel throughout the city, said Cory Kitch, owner of Home Slice Pizza. Kitch has a food truck that he has taken to special events such as the USA Pro Cycling Challenge and Oktoberfest. But several regulations or deficiencies in the city�s code pushed Kitch to buy a lot on North Main Avenue and park his truck there permanently instead of traveling around town.
In the future, he hopes to build a restaurant on the lot to free the truck to move around the city � if future ordinance changes will allow him, that is.
Meanwhile, other business owners around Durango have hesitated to jump into the food-truck arena because the city�s current regulations are too burdensome.
Fine-tuning the regulations
The city categorizes mobile vendors as temporary or permanent. Temporary vendors can operate only six months per year and must locate on appropriately zoned private property. Permanent mobile vendors must comply with the same regulations as brick-and-mortar restaurants, including property improvement requirements and connection to water and sewer lines.
The city�s planning department plans to examine the codes governing mobile vendors, which include food trucks, as a part of its work revising Durango�s Land Use Development Code.
�The reason is we�ve been getting a lot of interest on doing permanent mobile vending (in the last year), and we don�t have anything in our code that allows for it,� said Nicol Killian, a city planner. �It�s a new thing in cities similar to Durango.�
The city is looking at allowing different types of mobile vending on private property throughout the city but needs to decide what kinds of improvements vendors will be required to make on the lots, Killian said. In the new code, the city may try to differentiate between various types of mobile vendors and maybe be more relaxed about regulations for certain vendors such as food trucks, she said.
The city also will look at the possibility of mobile pods where multiple vendors locate on one property and share improvements.
The idea would be to make it a �little bit more innovative and easier for them,� Killian said.
Locationwise, the hope is to strike a balance so mobile vendors don�t negatively affect existing food establishments.
�We don�t want someone setting up on downtown Main Avenue and taking business away from Carvers, which has a building that meets all our codes,� she said.
Different purpose, different clientele
Several people, including Killian, noted that food trucks serve a different customer base than brick-and-mortar restaurants.
�I can understand concerns about competition with brick-and-mortar restaurants, but food trucks typically are serving a different market at a different price point, and can serve areas where the infrastructure costs and logistics of a brick-and-mortar establishment may not pencil out,� City Councilor Christina Rinderle wrote in an email. �Given the nature of our higher cost of living, they also provide an economical opportunity for families that wouldn�t otherwise choose to eat out.�
Food trucks also offer a lower cost of entry for people looking to get into the restaurant business for the first time, said Cynthia James Stewart, who runs the Harvest Grill & Greens at James Ranch. The food wagon serves burgers, sandwiches and salads using meat and produce from James Ranch.
A food cart was �the more simple route to go,� when she decided to start serving food at the ranch, Stewart said. Even so, meeting county regulations was no small task, she said.
Food truck potential
Carol Clark works at Fort Lewis College for most of the year but recently has spent summers delving into mobile food-and-beverage trucks. Her first project is a pub truck that features a mobile bar. The truck, which is manufactured with green materials, is solar-powered and runs on biodiesel, and it will be used for educational purposes, special events and private parties, Clark said. She hopes to debut it at Snowdown in February.
But Clark put her other food truck-related venture on hold until the city �changes its code and the code works,� she said.
She has put hours of research looking into ways other cities have allowed food trucks and sees a real possibility for them to enhance Durango, she said.
John Gutierrez, co-owner of Beto�s Fast Mexican Food, also sees great potential for food trucks to provide a �wealth of opportunity� for small-business growth. The restaurant owns a taco truck but has only used it at the USA Pro Cycling Challenge.
By setting up near business hubs around town, food trucks could minimize traffic in town and on weekend nights, Gutierrez said. His taco truck would be perfect to feed late-night crowds, he said. Gutierrez is an ardent supporter of revising the city�s regulations, which he said �stymie the little guys.�
�In today�s economy, we need a community that creates ordinances to support small businesses,� he said.
Killian, the city planner, said code revisions concerning mobile vendors should be ready for public comment early next year and City Council will vote on them in the spring.
�It�s a new thing for the city,� Rinderle said. �I�m excited to have that discussion.�

The University at Buffalo School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences will soon join the panoply of hospitals, research offices and skilled-nursing facilities that make up the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus downtown, and the developers are reaching out to nearby residents to make sure it's a good fit.
Thursday, they met with residents and business owners in Buffalo's Allentown community to update them on the project and gather feedback on how the school might be integrated into the community.
The new medical school is slated for construction along Main Street from the site of the current Metro Rail station at Allen and High streets, which will be incorporated into the design of the seven-story building. Residents were assured that the construction would not impede access to the station.
"Anytime we do a project like the move of the medical school downtown, it impacts the surrounding communities," said Laura E. Hubbard, vice president of finance and administration at UB.
"So an important part of doing a project for us is understanding what those impacts are and considering those and hearing from the community about that," Hubbard added.
She noted that the move of the medical school to downtown has been an important part of UB 2020 planning.
"It's really a return home for our school of medicine which actually started downtown many years ago when UB was just a fledgling university. The medical school was the start of UB," Hubbard said.
The project will increase partnership opportunities with Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Kaleida Health and UB's own medical practices, placing those in the fields of research, teaching and clinical practice in a central location, she said.
"I think it's really about connectivity, making sure that the employee base that we're growing on the campus will be connected," said Matthew K. Enstice, executive director of the Medical Campus.
There are roughly 12,000 people who work on the campus currently, and that number is expected to increase to 17,000 by the end of 2016, Enstice said.
There are no plans to provide housing for students at the medical school, Enstice added, and the cafeteria in the building will be small.
The objective is to encourage the students to go out into the community, not just Allentown, but the neighboring Fruit Belt community, downtown and communities north of the campus, according to developers.
"We're in the process right now of building a park. We're spending about $6.5 million to redo Ellicott Street, and what's happening there is we're under construction right now," Enstice said.
"We'll be completed by the fall of this year building a park," he added.
"The biggest part that I'm playing right now is to make sure the people in the neighborhood are being heard and listened to.
"I've got to say, the university is very understanding of that, and their voices will be heard through this in multiple different ways. This is one of them."

8 Zombie Apocalypse Survival Strategies (For Zombies)
#4. Romance
The longing to pair off with a kindred soul has lasted throughout human history, and there's no reason to think it won't survive the transition to inhuman history, even if the souls are no longer exactly present and everyone's a bit stickier.
Mark Marek
With luck, your nose will be the first thing to rot off.
The biggest challenge with finding said soulless-mate will be the communication difficulties -- "Blaaaaaaaargh" can mean both "I am for you, always" and "I have tremendous gas pain." You're also going to be cut off from the technological advantages today's humans have, with their dating web sites and sexting and teledildonics. Instead, you're going to be meeting most of your potential mates the old fashioned way -- through social circles and peers. It will be more than a little bit like how they dated in pre-industrial days, so if you have the time prior to zombification, spend some time around Amish communities to get a feel for how that plays out. Don't tell them what you're there researching zombie life though -- the Amish already have a poor impression of outsiders. Also don't mention the teledildonics thing either -- same deal.
Finally, because you never know when you'll shuffle upon that special someone, make a point of keeping yourself presentable looking. Always try and keep some fresh blood on your shirtfront to make yourself look successful. Mind your posture, keeping it hunched and stiff looking. And tear your clothes strategically to reveal your most suggestively rotted bits.
Hot. Well, actually cold and clammy. But you get our meaning.
#3. Job Hunting
Even with civilization crumbling around you, remember that you are still part human. There is a deep and powerful selfishness built into your modified DNA, and it is probably inevitable that zombies will eventually get around to the business of business. In the later stages of a zombie apocalypse, you can expect the most dynamic and successful zombies will be gathering, hording and growing precious resources -- building human farms essentially. The rich zombies will get richer, and if you can't be one of them, you'll want to at least be working for one of them.
"ZombCorp has a great health plan -- your first two jaw replacements are free. And the glass eye copay is only half a frontal lobe."
The job application and interview process will be pretty informal, and will probably consist of a short conversation and a grappling contest. Bringing a resume is advisable -- but remember that the typical zombie resume will be very short, as your pre-zombie education and experience will be meaningless in this new world order. Focus on your quantifiable zombie-specific achievements -- number of humans eaten, barricades demolished, malls sacked, that sort of thing. It will of course be impossible to write any of this down, but taking the effort to smear a bloody stump of a finger on a piece of paper will show you have professionalism, in the exact same way that it doesn't currently do that at all in the human world.
#2. Sex
Your sex drive will drop off considerably following zombification, primarily due to the lack of blood circulating in your nether regions.
"Blaaaaaargh. (I just kind of feel like cuddling right now actually, if that's OK with you.)"
It won't disappear entirely however, and you may find yourself feeling familiar and confusing urges again, perhaps when gazing at a gaping wound in the torso of a lovely zombie of your preferred gender.
Safe sex is critical, but not, interestingly, because of the risk of infectious disease (definitely there, but irrelevant). Remember that both of your bodies are slowly crumbling, so be gentle, and focus on pleasing only your sturdier appendages. You will also be substantially less flexible, so don't try anything too creative. Try a zombie-modified variant of the missionary position, which is like regular missionary position, but standing, arms outstretched so that the two of you are kind of grappling with your torsos still several feet apart. This is not in any way satisfying, but given the tremendous gas pain you're feeling at all times, that wasn't really an option anyways -- also note that this position will mitigate the chance of orgasm, which would be profoundly uncomfortable for all involved.
For an idea of what this sounds like, jam a sausage into a wheel of Camembert.
#1. Retirement Planning
The unnatural lifespan of a zombie will vary anywhere between six months to several years, depending on how well they take care of themselves -- assuming you trick yourself into eating enough vegetables, you'll probably slot in to the upper end of that range. And if that's the case, ask yourself whether you want to spend your golden months shuffling around, competing with younger, fitter zombies for food? Them just tripping you up, and laughing at you and the music that you like, and using new slang that you're unfamiliar with.
"Vlaaaaaaaargh. (OMG! LOL)"
That would suck like a gaping chest wound, so make sure to plan for your future and build up a nest egg. Capture and pen some humans in a safe place, being careful not to feed on them until you retire. Then, taking into account inflation and the reproduction rate for humans in captivity, you should be able to live off that supply for the rest of your unlife. If you don't want to go to that trouble, Zombie Mutual Funds are a sensible way to pool your resources with other investors. ZMFs are run by experienced professionals who manage humans in a collective fund, allowing their population to grow at sustainable rates. There is a cost to this of course, so be sure to do your own due diligence prior to joining a fund -- look for funds with a track record of steady human growth, and with low expense fees (ZMERs).
Being a zombie is not all fun and games. You'll be in constant pain, always hungry, usually disoriented and you will fall down -- a lot. Meanwhile your primary food source love, love, loves, shooting you in the face, and will even probably make up little games surrounding it. Finally there is a non-trivial chance your genitals will fall off.
"Blaaaaaaaargh. (Oh no. My beans.)"
With this guide ... well ... all those things will probably still happen to you. Sorry. But some of the time horrible things won't happen to you, and in those times you will be zombieing like hell, head intact and just killing it in all aspects of unlife. Blaaaaaaaargh! You'll live like a zombie boss, or at least you will before the human military drops napalm on you and your friends and the little grave you buried your genitals in.
