Top 10 Carrie Underwood Songs
In Carrie Underwood's world, a song that only reaches No. 2 on the Billboard charts is a disappointment.
In Carrie Underwood's world, a song that only reaches No. 2 on the Billboard charts is a disappointment.
Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley appeared on 'The View' on ABC Monday morning (Oct. 27) to talk about the 2014 CMA Awards, but it didn't take long for focus to turn to Underwood's baby bump. The 'Something in the Water' hitmaker dished on her due date, what she fears about motherhood and -- at the end -- her upcoming greatest hits album.
From 'Jesus Take the Wheel' to 'Something in the Water,' Carrie Underwood's hits have found themselves a comfortable home in country music, which the singer loves. She recently stood up for the genre, explaining why she adores it so much and even going into detail on what country music is really all about.
There's nothing like a home cooked meal, right Brad Paisley?! The superstar and CMA Awards co-host Carrie Underwood reminisce over past events ... and why one CMAs ended a little prematurely.
Carrie Underwood isn't getting much use out of her gift from Miranda Lambert these days. Now that she's expecting, she's put her motorcycle lessons on hold ... until after the baby comes, at least.
With the 2014 CMA Awards just around the corner, six-time hosts Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood are feeling nostalgic.
Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood are two peas in a pod ... at least when it comes to co-hosting the CMA Awards.
Carrie Underwood is raising the bar for herself with her new single 'Something in the Water.' The song marked the best-selling first week of the star's entire career!
Carrie Underwood has never shied away from publicly expressing her deep Christian faith, and her new song, 'Something in the Water,' is a perfect example.
Now that Carrie Underwood is pregnant, everyone -- including the singer -- is wondering if a handsome country crooner or tiny songstress will appear in Spring 2015. Underwood admits she's hoping for a baby girl.

The heart conveys messages beyond what ears can hear.
After the death of her fiancé, Catherine Johnson, a New York schoolteacher in 1902, travels to Nebraska to teach in a one-room school. When violence erupts in the sleepy town, Catherine saves deaf stable hand, Jim Kinney from torture by drunken thugs.
As she begins teaching Jim to read and sign, attraction grows between them. The warmth and humor in this silent man transcends the need for speech and his eyes tell her all about his feelings for her. But the obstacles of class difference and the stigma of his handicap are almost insurmountable barriers to their growing affection.
Will Catherine flaunt society's rules and allow herself to love again? Can Jim make his way out of poverty as a deaf man in a hearing world? And will the lovers overcome a corrupt robber baron who has a stranglehold on the town? Romance, sensuality and adventure abound in this heartfelt tale.

Cream colored dahlias
Prettypetals_GA_7-8September 22, 2013
What cream colored dahlias do you grow?
Perhaps this one might fit into your cream-colored search... I think the undertones are the same as Cafe au Lait, with a blush on the tips. I alternate from disliking its color as a single bloom to really liking it for bouquets to blend two color palettes together. It's growing on me, but I have to admit that its name seems to fit when I look at it on the plant, compared to almost any other bloom in my beds. Quite frankly, I feel the same way with Cafe au Lait's color, so this is purely color bias.

Should we really be surprised that the league's most interesting general manager chose to take the path of higher risk, higher reward? That's where the Houston Rockets, led by daring and analytically driven GM Daryl Morey, enter the 2014-15 season. When we last saw them, contention didn't feel far away. In the first year of the Dwight Howard-James Harden foundation, the Rockets went 54-28 in a loaded West and secured home court advantage in the first round. That was in line with preseason
SH Blog: Durant won't rush return to Thunder, Bosh explains why he chose Heat over Rockets
Kevin Durant rolled in on a scooter and spoke with Oklahoma City media on Tuesday for the first time since his surgery to repair a Jones fracture in his right foot, reiterating that he wouldn't rush his return to the court.
Terrence Jones, Gorgui Dieng Lead West's Breakout Team
On Thursday, we gave you our All-Breakout Team for the upcoming season for the Eastern Conference. Today, we bring you our Western Conference All-Breakout Team. These are the players we believe are on the verge of breaking out or standing out. We used the same parameters – five players, one at each position, but no rookies. Let's get right to it.
SH Blog: GMs see Dallas/Parsons contract helping more restricted free agents swap teams; Pacers extend Vogel
Could the unique contract structure arranged by the Dallas Mavericks and owner Mark Cuban to pry Chandler Parsons from the Houston Rockets become a template for freeing future restricted free agents? Multiple league GMs think it could, according to a new report from ESPN's Marc Stein. The Parsons contract, which is almost-max-level over three years and includes a player option after Year 2 and maximum 15% trade kicker, proved difficult for the Rockets to match on several levels, even though they fully intended
SH Blog: Miami Upset LeBron With Miller Amnesty, Durant Plans To Rejoin Team USA in 2016
Many believed the Heat's loss to the Spurs in the NBA Finals was when LeBron James first began to seriously consider leaving Miami. As it turns out, the wheels may have already been put in motion. Mike Miller, who followed James this offseason to the Cleveland Cavaliers, told the Cleveland Plain-Dealer this week that James initially began questioning the Heat's brass when they used the amnesty provision on Miller in July 2013, sparing owner Micky Arison millions in salary and luxury-tax fees
SH Blog: Daryl Morey Fires Back at Mark Cuban
The San Antonio Spurs may be the reigning NBA champions, but it's the Dallas Mavericks and Houston Rockets who are stealing headlines out of Texas. From players swapping teams to front office members trading barbs, there's been no shortage of drama in the state where everything's bigger. On Monday, Rockets general manager Daryl Morey took the gloves off and returned shots at Mavericks owner Mark Cuban. In an interview with Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, Morey responded to the consistent jabs that Cuban
DuBose: Harden Hopes Team USA Lessons Drive Defensive Turnaround
HOUSTON — Is James Harden capable of being Kevin Durant 2.0 when it comes to post-FIBA growth? Many credited FIBA international play in 2010 with aiding Durant's evolution into an NBA superstar. Now, fresh off a gold medal in Spain with the U.S. national team, Durant's former teammate and good friend Harden is hoping to see a similar transformation of his own as he embarks on his third season as a franchise cornerstone, a Big Two alongside Dwight Howard for the Houston Rockets. The theme for
SH Blog: Kyle Lowry apologized to Kevin McHale, Celtics' owner questions if Rondo is coachable
The summer of 2014 is remembered in Houston for what might have been. The most noteworthy names to highly consider forming a "Big 3" with James Harden and Dwight Howard were Carmelo Anthony and Chris Bosh, but former Rocket point guard Kyle Lowry is firmly on that star-studded list as well. In a wonderful feature by Grantland's Jonathan Abrams on Lowry's career-long search for trust, Abrams outlines Lowry's falling out with Houston head coach Kevin McHale in the 2011-12 season and the subsequent

PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer on Thursday vetoed legislation that would have exempted Uber and other ride-sharing companies from insurance regulations imposed on traditional taxi and livery companies.
Brewer vetoes controversial ride-sharing bill
Saying the bill does not offer fundamental safeguards that protect passengers, she vetoed the bill just one day after the state House of Representatives gave final approval to House Bill 2262.
"Consumer safety must not be sacrificed for the sake of innovation," Brewer wrote in her veto letter.
Brewer took issue with several provisions of the bill, including the part that exempts ride-share companies from the commercial insurance requirements that require traditional taxi and livery companies to insure drivers at all times on the job. An Uber driver who is working on the road but has not yet received a request for a ride is not insured unless the driver's personal insurance denies the claim, in which case Uber provides its contingent policy.
"In the larger context, this uncovered exposure likely would have led to significant increases in insurance rates for all Arizona consumers and unnecessary litigation," she wrote.
Uber is one of several new companies that partner people seeking rides with freelance drivers using web-based applications. The San Francisco-based company issued a statement expressing disappointment in the veto but vowing to press ahead with efforts in Arizona.
"Arizonans want competition. Arizonans want choice. They lost both tonight," the statement said. "With the veto of HB 2262, Governor Brewer has taken an action that will slash quality jobs, restrict access to a best-in-class transportation option and set Arizona back in the innovation economy. Ridesharing as we know it is dead in Arizona, despite the support of tens of thousands of residents across the state, both houses of the Legislature and a unified industry - a clear movement for competition and choice."

The Invincible Lie: Part II
Nothing produces more of a sense of the futility of facts than seeing someone in the mass media repeating some notion that has been refuted innumerable times over the years.
On July 9th, on CNN's program "The Situation Room" with Wolf Blitzer, commentator Gloria Borger discussed President Obama's plan to continue the temporary extension of the tax rates established under the Bush administration — except for the top brackets, where Obama wanted the tax rates raised.
Ms. Borger said, "if you're going to lower the tax rates, where are you going to get the money from?"
First of all, nobody is talking about lowering the tax rates. They are talking about whether or not to continue the existing tax rates, which are set to expire after a temporary extension. And Obama is talking about raising the tax rate on higher income earners.
But when Ms. Borger asked, "where are you going to get the money from?" if you don't raise tax rates, that assumes an automatic correlation between tax rates and tax revenues, which is demonstrably false.
As far back as the 1920s, a huge cut in the highest income tax rate — from 73 percent to 24 percent — led to a huge increase in the amount of tax revenue collected by the federal government. Why? Because investors took their money out of tax shelters, where they were earning very modest rates of return, and put their money into the productive economy, where they could earn higher rates of return, now that those returns were not so heavily taxed.
This was the very reason why tax rates were cut in the first place — to get more revenue for the federal government. The same was true, decades later, during the John F. Kennedy administration. Similar reasons led to tax rate cuts during the Ronald Reagan administration and the George W. Bush administration.
All of these presidents — Democrat and Republican alike — made the same argument for tax rate reductions that had been made in the 1920s, and the results were similar as well. Yet the invincible lie continues to this day that those who oppose high tax rates on high incomes are doing so because they want to reduce the taxes paid by high income earners, in hopes that their increased prosperity will "trickle down" to others.
In reality, high income earners paid not only a larger total amount of taxes after the tax rate cuts of the 1920s but also a higher share of all the income taxes collected. It is a matter of record that anyone can check out with official government statistics.
This result was not peculiar to the 1920s. In 2006, the New York Times reported: "An unexpectedly steep rise in tax revenues from corporations and the wealthy is driving down the projected budget deficit this year."
Expectations are in the eye of the beholder. Tax cut proponents expected precisely the result from the Bush tax cuts that so surprised the New York Times. So did tax cut proponents in the John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan administrations.
If this concept has not yet trickled down to the New York Times or CNN's Gloria Borger, that is a commentary on the media commentators.
Ms. Borger may simply not know any better, but Barack Obama cannot use that excuse. When he was a candidate for president back in 2008, Charles Gibson of ABC News confronted him with the fact that there was no automatic correlation between the raising and lowering of tax rates and whether tax revenues moved up or down.
Obama admitted that. But he said that he was for raising tax rates on higher income earners anyway, in the name of "fairness." How higher tax rates that the government does not actually collect make any sense, whether from a fairness perspective or as a way of paying the government's bills, is another question. The point here is that Obama knew then that tax rates and tax revenues do not automatically move in the same direction.
In other words, he is lying when he talks as if tax rates and tax revenues move together. Ms. Borger and others in the media may or may not know that. So they are not necessarily lying. But they are failing to inform their audiences about the facts — and that allows Obama's lies to stand.

County implementing 'Code Red' emergency alert system
Henrico County is implementing a new multi-faceted alert system that will warn residents of emergencies faster than its current system while saving the county about $50,000 a year.
The "Code Red" system, operated by a private company, will be able to send warning messages by phone, text and e-mail countywide or to specific groups of residents in certain geographic areas as warranted, Fire Chief Anthony McDowell told the Board of Supervisors during a work session Nov. 27.
The system will cost Henrico about $53,000 annually – about half of the $102,000 the county had been paying to maintain its existing system each year. Henrico officials have been operating the current system internally since 2007, using county data servers, phone lines and employee time to send phone, text and e-mail alerts as weather and public safety events necessitated, McDowell said.
But the system was becoming costly and inefficient. It had just about outgrown its four servers, which would have necessitated the purchase of new servers at a cost of about $30,000, he said. And reverse 911 calls could take hours to send out to all 132,000 land lines in the county because only 23 lines were available for use (down from 46 originally).
By contracting with Emergency Communications Network, LLC, those problems will be eliminated, McDowell said. The company will host all information on its servers in Florida, with three backup systems in place in other states. Phone calls and text and e-mail alerts will be sent out immediately through dedicated channels, ensuring that the county's messages won't have to wait in a queue behind those from other participating jurisdictions.
The Code Red system is able to distribute 50,000 30-second phone messages each hour, McDowell said, meaning that it could contact every Henrico landline in about two and-a-half hours.
Phone messages will only be sent in cases of actual emergencies – such as the potential of life-threatening weather events or when a dangerous criminal is believed to be in the area, County Manager Virgil Hazelett told the board.
Text and e-mail alerts – which citizens must register to receive – may cover a broader range of events, including non-emergency information about traffic, for example. Anyone may opt into the system by registering a phone number or e-mail address at http://www.henricoalert.org.
Henrico officials are hopeful that the Code Red system will be able to identify emergency phone calls as coming from "Henrico Emergency" so that recipients are more likely to answer. But even if they don't answer, the system will leave its entire message on voice mail, or recipients can dial the number back to hear the message, McDowell said.
The Code Red system uses a database of phone numbers filtered through Verizon's list of all landlines in the county, so that it will know to call only one number at a business or residence, for example. The system does not include phone numbers established through online providers such as Vonage, but citizens also will be able to opt their phone numbers into the system if they choose.
Code Red also offers a smartphone app for a one-time fee of $5.99 that will provide emergency alerts from any of its participating jurisdictions nationwide, so that a person who travels to another state, for example, could be alerted to emergencies there.
Twenty-five other Virginia localities already use the Code Red system, McDowell said. In Henrico, it will be administered through the Division of Fire and Office of Emergency Management, though other county officials may have the ability to distribute messages.

Ichiban offers rich Asian flavors, but portions lack
In a spot that could be easily overlooked is a surprising, and delicious, Japanese restaurant. In a tiny nook in the shops at the corner of Ridgefield Parkway and Pump Road sits a welcoming, warm and comfortable Asian restaurant called Ichiban, which means "the best."
The restaurant, tucked between a couple others in the Gleneagles Shopping Center, was so quiet and dark that it was difficult to tell if it was open at 6:30 p.m. on a Monday. When I opened the door, I smiled when I looked inside. > Read more.

Disney's no-frills, live-action 'Cinderella' delights
Cinderella is the latest from Disney's new moviemaking battle plan: producing live-action adaptations of all their older classics. Which is a plan that's had questionable results in the past.
Alice in Wonderland bloated with more Tim Burton goth-pop than the inside of a Hot Topic. Maleficent was a step in the right direction, but the movie couldn't decide if Maleficent should be a hero or a villain (even if she should obviously be a villain) and muddled itself into mediocrity.
Cinderella is much better. Primarily, because it's just Cinderella. No radical rebooting. No Tim Burton dreck. It's the 1950 Disney masterpiece, transposed into live action and left almost entirely untouched. > Read more.

33 year old man | Chesterfield, MI, USA | Seeking women 23-35 within 50 miles of New Baltimore, MI
Come on don't be shy take a look inside, its definitely worth a look.
I joined this site because I wanted to expand my options and hopefully meet someone special that I otherwise may never of got a chance to meet. I have grown tired of the classic bar scene dating pool; it just never seems to go anywhere. I am a very outgoing person who loves the adventure of trying new things; as well as the comforts of my normal day to day life. I would say I work to live and live for the good times spent with friends. I love to laugh and joke around, but also have a serious responsible side that keeps me in check. I am a very kind and considerate person that can easily be placed in any situation that life has to offer and adjust on the fly. I like to think of myself as someone who takes life by the horns. If there is something that interests me, I don't waist a lot of time talking about it, I just do it. I spend a lot of my time outside no matter what the season. Summers are mostly spent out on the lake and at the tiki bar at my house with friends. Every day in the summer feels like a vacation at my house; its just so relaxing living on the water. In the the winter months i take a lot of trips up north snowmobiling. My family has a cabin near boyne mountain which always seems to be full of friends all winter long. Im not a good skier but will defiently have a good laugh out on the hill with you. I love the tigers and the lions. Its pretty tough to beat some cold beers and a hot dog at a ball game. I recently got lions season tickets so i'm looking forward to some really good fall tailgating. I am looking for someone that wants to share all the things that life has to offer.

My Mom's hallway, her door is at the very end!
Richard, Bobbie, Gary, Paloma and me
Have a GOOD WEEKEND!
Back to work today.
First of all, let me say that the piece of crap, loud noisy police helicopter has been hovering overhead,way up high, since about 10 till 6 AM. Right now it is so loud I can't hear myself think. At least 30 minutes so far, hovering as still as they can.
Vacation was good, one week ago from this minute, I was on my way to Baltimore, MD. I saw my Mom, and a few friends, some of whom I hadn't seen in 15 years.
I did come back a day early though, because of a massive snow storm threatening the North Eastern US.
So I'm returning to work after two days on the beach!
I have to locate and sort all my pictures, there's more coming.
I went to see a Navy friend in Delaware, I had a GPS in my rental car. I just entered their address and didn't look at the map. Well, the GPS took me all the way around the Chesapeake Bay, instead of over the Rt 50 bridge, so the 2.5 hour trip took about 5 hours. I felt like a dummy. But it was a beautiful drive, except for the Baltimore slums along the way.
Glad to be back, Have a good week!
Today is my last working day before vacation.
I feel like I'm making a bigger deal of it than it really is, I mean, it's only 5 days, and I'm going north, into the cold cold cold.
I'm excited about going, I just think I'm building it up as too much in my mind.
Anyway, I should be busy at work today, then get me outta here!
Have a good day!
This morning, before the alarm went off, I was dreaming it was Saturday. 5AM is awful early, and it seems to be getting earlier.
I am studying for test 3 for the real estate license. It is very difficult. They give you sample questions, and I cannot find the answers in the text.
It was supposed to be rainy today, but I don't think it's going to be. Scooter to work and beach for lunch!
I feel like I need to start putting more effort into this blog. I never know what I'm going to post before I post it.
At the end of this month, I'm going to see my Mom in Maryland, USA. Just outside Washington DC. It will be cold. I'm compiling a list of things to buy and people to see. I'll be there from a Thursday to a Tuesday.
I don't have much excitement about going to work today.
Have a Good Day!
Got halfa day at work, then two holiday days, two weekend days, and one vacation day. Then back to work on the 30th.
I'm excited, like a little kid just before Christmas!
Today, I shall spring on my boss, out of the blue, a vacation request form for vacation starting this week. 6 days, Wed Thur Fri this week, Mon Tue Wed next week.
I shall stay on the island. I shall go to the beach. I shall go diving. I shall go find that wreck.
The Wife went to Costa Rica for 3+ weeks. I went for one week. She's basically out of vacation days for the year. I have 11 days left. Last year, I had to "use them or lose them" vacation days at the end of the year. Don't want that to happen again.
It's a good idea. just thought of it just now. I'll still have 5 days left.
Happy Monday! Have a good week!

Haraway begins the reading, informing the reader that she would attempt to connect two rather unrelated ideas in cyborgs and feminism. I thought the reading was extremely confusing throughout, however, her point about cyborgs is interesting. As we found out in class, everyone's view towards what makes up a cyborg is different. To Haraway a cyborg is "a cybernetic organism, a hybrid of machine and organism, a creature of social reality as well as a creature of fiction". This dualism is touched upon multiple times throughout the reading which made me truly debate with myself what a cyborg really is. Dualism was compared to mind and body, for example, is sued to compare reality and fiction. This comparison is also used in term of cyborgs–reality and fiction. To me a cyborg is when technology and humans are connected and have effects in a way that could not be done without one or the other. So in terms of cyborgs and dualism, I believe that one is not real without the other. In other terms, what is real is the sum of the two because, without technology or a human (when speaking of cyborgs) the other is left alone, no different than before.
DTC 475– Blog Post 5
I found this week's reading regarding online identity's connection with offline identity, through the lens of a Native American Regalia very interesting as I can relate to this search for continuity and evolution of the online self and offline self. The reason that I can relate to this reading, being a middle-class white male, is through my experience living in Alabama. While playing baseball at a University in Montgomery, Alabama I had a roommate who, by blood, was half African American, half Caucasian. My roommate, who I will call Joe, spoke with a Southern drawl being from Jacksonville, Florida. It is important to point out the distinct differences between races in the South. For the most part, southern white males dressed very similarly while black males dressed similarly as well. The contrasting styles of dress, along with other cultural factors such as musical taste, media consumption, and even vernacular made it fairly easy to distinguish one's race. When confronted with the question about whether he considered himself black Joe quickly refuted, stating that he considered himself mixed–however more white than black. For the most part this matched up. If one were to judge Joe's race by what could be seen on the outside–his fashion style, his media consumption, etc. one would consider him more white than black. I believe his passion to relate more with white stereotype in the south was fueled by the perception of blacks by the socioeconomic majority of whites. Despite the progressive nature of our country in terms of race relations, problems like prejudice, racism, and stereotypes seem to be much more prevalent in the south–as it has always been. When looking at his Facebook profile, Joe's "likes" and information all allude to the fact that he considers himself to be more white. However, I think it is interesting to note that whenever Joe and I were in the presence of predominately black audience, Joe became more black. Joe used black slang and talked about culturally black things.
Did Joe do this because he felt the need to further connect with the other black peers? Or, below the surface, was Joe struggling with his identity as outside pressure–pressures that weigh heavier on mixed blacks in the south–pushing and pulling him from one side to the other? Why wasn't his change of Regalia in his offline identity not reflected in his online identity?
DTC 475–Week 4 Blog Post: Social Media Moderators
When it comes to social media, we have had a fairly smooth introduction in regards to the nature of the content that we see. In the early days of social media one would occasionally stumble across a spam post which may be pornographic in nature. I also remember the video of Saddam Hussein's hanging being posted on the early days of Youtube. Other than these random occurrences, users of social media have been sheltered from graphic, pornographic, or generally disturbing content. The introduction of those who make social media sites relatively safe, by means of moderating every piece of content that is flagged is disturbing.
The fact that one would have to witness graphic content on an extreme scale day by day is tragic in itself. The fact that we outsource American companies' moderation needs to other countries is a whole another issue. What I am interested in is the alternatives to human-powered content moderation. These alternatives are slim, though. One could say we just take out moderation altogether. I think it is quite obvious why we wouldn't take this approach as we wouldn't want Grandma Jo to see Graham kill Joe. The next best alternative would be to have user-generated moderation, i.e. deleting content solely based of users flagging anything that they believe to be offensive. This doesn't sound too bad, however do we think that it should be okay if one of your crazy Facebook friends from middle school starts flagging all things soccer because it's a "communist sport"? The next best alternative is the current–outside moderation who makes decisions based on their perceived notion of morality–specifically in the United States.
I think it is interesting to ponder the last alternative that I can draw up–AI moderation. On the surface this seems like the best alternative. Smart computers moderate social media sites as humans do now, preventing one from witnessing the evil-doings in this world. The issue goes deeper, though. As computers and their computation speed and power are growing exponentially, so to becomes the possibility and reality that computers will be able to think as fast or faster than the human brain. With this improved computation speed, computers will be able to pull, analyze, and interpret data far beyond the abilities of humans. So if one were to instruct a computer or set of computers to moderate content, insuring that offensive material is stowed away from the users, doesn't that mean the computer has to have a sense of morality? This being the case, where does the morality come from? Is it inputted by a human–who's moral judgement has the possibility of being flawed? Or does the computer, based off of its experiences (analysis of information and data), create its own sets of moral guidelines?
Digital Diversity–Week 3 Blog Response
For this week's reading, I chose to read the National Telecommunications and Information Administration's July, 1995 report titled "A Survey of the 'Have Nots' in Rural and Urban America". It seemed that, even in 1995, the problems of a lack of internet connection in households would hinder the less-privileged. Their thinking, despite the internet being a fairly new concept, was associated with the ability to access information quicker and easier when one has access to the internet from home. I think this is true to a certain extent. Information is, indeed, accessed much easier through the internet–there is no arguing this. However, looking back at this report 20 years later brings up that:
"NTIA's research reveals that many of the groups that are most disadvantaged in terms of absolute computer and modem penetration are the most enthusiastic users of on-line services that facilitate economic uplift and empowerment. Low- income, minority, young, and less educated computer households in rural areas and central cities appear to be likely to engage actively in searching classified ads for employment, taking educational classes, and accessing government reports, on-line via modem"
This may be true, but access to programs to uplift individuals socially and economically are more available than ever today. So why do we still see economic and social disparity within inner cities and rural areas? I don't think a lack of internet in the household is the problem. I do believe, though, that the internet has transitioned from being a strictly informational opportunity to a more social opportunity. Young people, in general, have become hyper-obsessed with their online image rather than their real-life standing. So to assume, as they did in 1995, that access to the internet would help pull the disadvantaged out of their socioeconomic hole was to think that the internet would be a driving force in the quest to socioeconomic prosperity. However, there are many outside factors which limit the disadvantaged from succeeding–all beyond mere access to internet.
How do you think that access to internet, in regards to the poor, can help in digging them out of their whole and allowing them to succeed? What is an example of an internet-based program/idea/etc, if any, that were viewed as opportunistic but didn't actually succeed in its mission?
DTC 475 Reading Response–Ch. 1
I was interested throughout the first chapter. Not so much because I learned anything new but T.V. Reed, the author of the book, brought to surface a lot of confusion and conflicting ideas regarding the digital age–all of which I can understand and relate with. It is also interesting when bringing in the conversation regarding online and offline life. I agree with the argument that one's online life and one's real life are mixed and muddled. This isn't to say, though, that there aren't instances in which one's online personality and offline personality aren't different. There are plenty of times, especially recently with the boom in social media, in which the way that a person acts online differs from when they are having real world interactions. Many people are more willing to speak up about things, no matter how innocent, which they would never do in person. I got the feeling that Reed believes there are extreme polar opposites in regards to opinions about technology, its future, our future with technology, and many other issues regarding this new age. I believe that the pendulum that determines which side the issue finally resides at is determined by us–humans. It is true that once a technology is released there are unintended consequences. But we have the ability, the research, and the knowledge to focus our efforts (as far as technological uses and future technological advancement goes) for good.
Rhetoric of Information Blog Post #2
In comparing three texts within the same genre, I chose ones that fall under sports websites. They are as follows and I will call them #1, #2, and #3:
The website "Lookout Landing" is a strictly a Seattle Mariners journalistic-type website containing statistical comparisons, objective articles, and fan-based opinions all in regards to the Mariners. There isn't one particular author of this text as there are both fan-written articles which are more biased. there are also regular writers on the website who try to capture the broader thoughts of the state of the team and what they believe is the mood Mariners fans in general. hey do a great job of providing in depth data, recognizable Seattle references, and opinions that are in tune to the state of the team and its fans. The purpose for the text is to provide stories and arguments regarding the Seattle Mariners which are backed by solutions to problems with the team or potential moves that they should/could make to improve the team. The purpose can be seen to not only inform but engage the audience by offering different polls and immersive comments sections under each article where people are able to create a specific online identity within the community of the Lookout Landing website. Its audience is clearly Seattle Mariners fans which is a specific target audience compared to broader sports websites like ESPN. The context of information on the site is more current, in-tune information however there are articles which look back at various historical events within the Mariners organization. The design choices on this website are effective in making the purpose for the website clear. It is organized in a grid system with pictures (and text overplayed) which link you to various articles. The pictures included in the short grid system are normally the newest articles with the larger picture including the most recent or popular article. Below the grid is a list of articles which are organized by date so that one could easily catch up on Mariners baseball talk if they weren't able to check the website for a few hours, days, or even weeks. The proximity of the pictures within the grid on the home page allows ones eye to gather information about the content of the article quickly and easily as the eye is able to make associations based of what the picture alone contains. These narrowly scoped sports websites are used to display, inform, and engage efficiently with real-time comments and various updates and posts throughout the day. It is effective for this sort of genre (baseball) and even more specifically Seattle baseball. What's interesting is the transition from sour, hopelessly venting news about an ailing Mariners team to a hopeful, electric, and promising standard for a successful mariners team. For example, the two most recent stories as of 3:06 of Monday the 8th are titled:
"After M's pass test, it's the fans' turn"
"Blastoff!: Mariners vs. Astros"
This strikes a contrast between early posts like, for example, in 2012:
"Mariners No Match For Whatever The F*** Is Powering The Orioles"
"Oh, dear me"
The site, Lookout Landing, is actually a branch to a larger, conglomerate sports-related community called SB Nation which is the mothership of various "Lookout Landing"-esque blogging sites regarding a plethora of sports and sports team communities…
"SB Nation" is basically laid out the same as "Lookout Landing" and still invites engagement from readers and contributors alike despite the larger range of topics. What is different, however is the content which is not only featured, but written about. Because of the different types of sports, ranges of information and data, and a generally larger number of traffic on the site, there are trends to be seen in what content is on the surface of the site. There are different factors which pertain to the audience and, in retrospect, the perceived audience of the site. Some factors such as the time of the year and the corresponding sports schedules and seasons are the main factor for the change in content that is promoted and featured on the site. For example, baseball and the upcoming postseason push will dominate headlines at night as games are finishing up. But the beginning of the football season will obviously be mixed in, especially on weekends and game days. Other sports will work there ways in and out during their various notable seasons, games, tournaments, and awards. However, other factors may steal the spotlight based on their timing, severity, and shock appeal. For example, the recent Baltimore Ravens' Ray Rice domestic violence news which is dominating space today:
Audience for SB Nation is a lot broader audience that opposes the more specific fan of the Seattle Mariners. The audience here is a large variety of men, women, ages, and athletic backgrounds who are interested in the larger sports picture.
"Baseball Reference" is a text whose sole purpose is to provide the access to and ability to customize searches for all things regarding the sport of baseball and its statistics on a purely historical scale. Its rudimentary design as far as color, typography and various alignment/space usage (Times New Roman) gives way to the actual in depth analysis that one is looking to perform on the website. It contains limited color yet, for one who will be using this website, is engaging–not for what it looks like but for what you can do. There isn't any cultural appeal like a baseball/sports blogging site whereas one wants to read news and information as soon as possible and as accurately as possible. The contents on baseball reference are dry, set in stone, and accurate overshadowing any opinions/biases/etc. that can be found in a written story. This site appeals to those who are not only strictly baseball fans who may want to know the amount of Home runs their favorite player hit in 1995, but also to statisticians, general managers, and baseball reporters looking to value, compare, or quantify certain aspects of a player.
Point, Line, Plane- Jacob Oster
This simpley, yet effective graphic poster by Chris Welsby contains graphic elements that are relevant such as Point, line and plane. Although there are only a couple handfuls of words, the poster demonstrates its ability to attract and inform fairly flawlessly. The high contrast in the projected plane and the word "loop" instantly creates point. It isn't necessarily the first place that your eye is attracted to but because of the upward angled red plane the eye is led from the bottom/left edge of the page to the word "loop" your eye then is help in that area as the disconnected tail of the "p" in "loop" acts as a line to the smaller lettering which in itself is a line as the eye flawlessly follows the "p" down and through the following text. When looking at the words as a whole, they create a 90 degree angle which provides a stopping point for the eye as it follows the red gradient plane from left to upper right. There seems to be two separate backgrounds as the white is obviously a background yet the red plane is made background because of the change in color and pattern in regards to the yellow rounded form. The type on the poster acts a Figure on top of the red plane ground. I found it interesting that the "loop" left-to-right line and the remaining words that create a vertical line are scaled to the length of the top and right frames of the red plane. For the most part, this poster is represented by Asymmetrical Balance. If you were to fold the poster in any direction there wouldn't be matching sides. I think this is effective in not only attracting the eye with the larger letters but leading the eye from bottom of the composition to the information that is to be taken away from the viewer.

I must go look at this when I get home!!
all pu snipers are round receivered with steel mounts. do not loosen the rings to "level" the scope it is canted in order to line up the reticle and bore in the verticle when the rifle is canted to level the reticle when looking through it. loosening the rings to level the rifle and level the scope is a huge mistake and if you do it the thing will never track true when using the bdc.
mine loves winchester white box 180grain. commonly groups less than an inch at 100.
i dont run surplus through it. ive got beater mosins for that junk.
the strike through nmbers are done at time of rearsenal when the soviets refurbed and new numbers are reissued this can be done in stampings or electro pencil and is called force matching. after the rearsenal they were packed away and didnt see day light until you got one.
on top of each dial are a couple of screws two are small and hold the bdc and windage drums tight. zero your rifle with the chosen load then loosen the screws not removing them and the bdc and windage can be set to zero and 100. the range is in meters i zeroed mine for 100yds its close enough. seems to track true enough from 100 to 300yds.
i really like the pu scope. when you learn to hold it with the same eye relief and use the tippy tip of the reticle its amazingly accurate
"Gun control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound." L. Neil Smith
The problem with being stupid is you cannot simply decide to stop doing dumb things...
"I crapped my pants to avoid the draft!!" -Ted Nugent
A rifle as long as the 91/30 must hit the POA at 100 unless maybe it is a smooth bore musket. Sober up fellows. There's no magic to the Mosin. Don't make too much of the double stamp either. The soviets were not as thoughtful and consistent in reissuing this rifle than the starry eyed American enthusiast wants to believe. The PU scope reticle is not centered, so moving it as you watch feels like a revelation. It was indeed a great tool in the field. The rifle was already obsolete when WW2 began. It remained in service not because it was exceptional, but because it was simple rugged and plentiful. I hope not to step on any toes but if I have forgive me for I am a friend of the Mosin not a foe.
These are fun rifles with a lot of history. I have a post war Hungarian version that shoots suprisingly well for the technology. Every military collector should own one of these.
I will be getting one of those just to have in a lil while. Not sure when. Maybe when tax returns come.
Keep an eye on AIM and Classic. Hoping they still have some to sell when you get your tax return, they are well worth the money.

This book shows For Loop in most of programming languages
Syntax Given an action that must be repeated, for instanc e, five times, different languages' for loops will be written differently. The syntax for a three-ex pression for loop is nearly identical in all langu ages that have it, after accounting for different styles of block termination and so on. Action Script 3 for (var counter:int = 1; counter <= 5; counter++) //statement; Bash # first form for i in 1 2 3 4 5 do # must have at least one command in loop* echo $i # just print value of i done BASIC For I = 1 to 5; Print I; Next I C for (initialization; condition;increment/decrements ) { statement 1; statement 2; . . } statement n; C, C++, C# and D for (int counter = 1; counter <= 5; counter++) //statement; //can use the statement 'break;' to exit early; The ISO/IEC 9899:1999 publication (commonly known as C99) also allows initial declarations in for lo ops. [edit]FORTRAN While using the keyword do instead of for, this ty pe of FORTRAN do loop behaves similarly to the thr ee argument for loop in other languages. This exam ple behaves the same as the others, initializing t he counter variable to 1, incrementing by 1 each i teration of the loop and stopping at five (inclusi ve). do counter = 1,5,1 write(*,'(i2)') counter end do Java for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++){ //perform functions within the loop; //can use the statement 'break;' to exit early; } # second form for (( i = 1; i <= 5; i++ )) do # must have at least one command in loop* echo $i # just print value of i done *Note: In these above languages, an empty loop (i. e., one with no commands between do and done) is a syntax error. If the above loops contained only c omments, execution would result in the message "sy ntax error near unexpected token 'done'". Lua for i = 1,5 do -- statements end Generic for-loop making use of closures: for name,phone,address in contacts() do -- contacts() must be an iterator function end Pascal for Counter := 1 to 5 do (*statement*); The numeric-range for loop varies somewhat more. P ascal would use the above-displayed code, whereas Perl would use the following: Perl for ($counter = 1; $counter <= 5; $counter++) { # statements; } (Note that for(1..5) { } is really a foreach in Per l.) PHP for ($i=0; $i<5; $i++) { # statements; } foreach (range(1,5) as $i) # statements; PL/I do counter = 1 to 5 by 1; /* "by 1" is the default if not specified */ /*statements*/; end; The LEAVE statement may be used to exit the loop. Loops can be labeled, and leave may leave a specif ic labeled loop in a group of nested loops. Some P L/I dialects include the ITERATE statement to term inate the current loop iteration and begin the next. Python for counter in range(1, 6): # range(1, 6) gives va lues from 1 inclusive to 6 exclusive # statements Ruby for counter in 1..5 # statements end 5.times do |counter| # counter iterates from 0 to 4 # statements end 1.upto(5) do |counter| # statements end Ruby has several possible syntaxes, including the a bove samples. Smalltalk 1 to: 5 do: [ :counter | "statements" ] Contrary to other languages, in Smalltalk a for lo op is not a language construct but defined in the class Number as a method with two parameters, the end value and a closure, using self as start value.
