1) Introduce her to Snopes. When my grandmother got her first email address (at age 79) she passed along everything she saw. Now she checks them out first and only passes the ones they verify.
2) Win a free [whatever] is never free. Ever.3) Tell her about the scam emails pretending to be eBay, PayPal, Bank of America (to name a few I've gotten in the last couple of weeks) and the ever-popular Nigerian diplomat. Warn her never to give out bank information or passwords via email. Let her know that many websites that as for an email address sell their lists, which increases her spam.
We're finally getting Mom set up with email!

About Me Value Oriented
This is my all time favorite eraser. My first Pentel Clic Eraser has lasted years since you can buy eraser refills. From excessive use I damaged the click handle, but it's still working. Since I can't imagine working without one, I bought a spare...just in case.
Easy to use!

A Great Eraser In Any Color!
By oneloneman
from Titusville, FL
About Me Quality Oriented
This is one of the easiest stick/click erasers to use. Even though it has a hold down button to stop the eraser from sliding back up into the barrel it's not necessary for gentle erasures. Use it for more aggressive erasures. Refills are easily placed into the barrel and stay put. Don't extend to much eraser when in use as it will break off (common with this style of eraser).

The best eraser
By Julie the Balancer
from Columbu, OH
I got one of these for my son to use at school & he loves it! No big grey smudges on his homework - or holes from too much erasing. It also leaves very little "eraser dust" in its wake.

Now 82 years old, Jim Marshall has been making music since he first picked up a guitar when he was 5. Jim learned to play traditional tunes from musicians gathering on his front porch in the summer and fall where they came to join his father, a fiddler, in making music. Surprisingly, fiddle is about the only instrument he doesn't play. Jim Marshall is very hospitable and has many musicians join him on Fridays. So if you're nearby on a Friday, come on by with your instrument to play and or just enjoy listening for a spell.

text: I adore these shoes. I wore my first pair of red ones, almost daily for a year. They are still great, but I scuffed the very soft leather across the toe. They are now work shoes and I bought a new pair of red ones. I do not wear other shoes anymore, I can feel the strain in my feet and back, so I am pretty much permanently hooked on these shoes.I just bought a black pair as a neutral to go with my other clothes. I fear that they will be discontinued so I may have to buy a life time supply! One flaw, they can gap, if made wrong. I did send one pair back that gapped too much (purchased on-line from an outlet store. I also went to an outlet store and found the same problem in the shoes they had there).

Hog O Efficiently Eviscerates Kentucky
By: Adam Alter
Updated: October 14, 2012
"It was important for us to come out and show what we showed early for our morale going forward, for our confidence, for everybody in that lockerroom," senior quarterback Tyler Wilson said after the Hogs' weather-shortened 49-7 destruction of Kentucky Saturday.
True freshman Jonathan Williams introduced his versatility and play making skills with three catches for 150 yards and two long touchdowns, including 74 yard catch and run on Arkansas' first offensive play.
"It was big," Wilson said. "First play of the game. That's exactly how we drew it up."
"They had told Jonathan all week that he would be wide open on that play," senior running back Dennis Johnson revealed. "He ran it and he was wide open. He just had to do the rest which was making guys miss."
"He's got things that you don't teach," head coach John L. Smith described. "One of those things of being a great running back is having great vision. Great football players have that. You say, 'How did you see that?' 'I don't know. I just did.'"
"That's a new weapon and that's definitely something we'll continue to work on," offensive coordinator Paul Petrino added.
Williams starred early, but plenty of Razorbacks enjoyed their time in the spotlight.
"Tyler's night was good. Cobi's night was good. DJ's night was good. Everybody's night was good," John L. Smith said.
Coupled with a steady run game, Tyler Wilson spread the ball to ten different receivers en route to a five touchdown performance.
"He played real well," Petrino said. "He was sharp. Other guys made plays for him too. I was real happy. I was happy to see Tyler light it up and have a great game."
"It was just one of those night," Wilson described. "Seems like everyone was open and you hit them."
Despite the shortened game, Arkansas won the time of possession battle in every quarter thanks in part to converting eight of 11 third downs.
"We had been in a drought on third down," Johnson said. "We just came out in practicing days and we just focused on third down and it paid off for us in the game."
"As long as you can do that, you're going to continue to have a lot of success," Smith said.

Reported by: Meteorologist Steve Newton
A Winter Weather Advisory remains in place for Cambria and Somerset Counties until 1 p.m. Sunday for the continued risk of snowfall. Many communities saw 2-4" snow with spots in the Laurel Highlands seeing as much as 6" of new snow.
We'll get a break for the latter half of Sunday and most of Monday before a disturbance moves in late, bringing with it another round of light snowfall that will last until Tuesday. New Years Day will have flurries or snow showers.
Arctic air will move in for the latter half of the week, bringing high temperatures in the low and mid 20s and overnight lows in the teens. A few communities late next week could see low temperatures in the single digits.

Moodys downgrades Illinois credit outlook
CHICAGO (AP) — Moody's Investors Services has revised Illinois' credit outlook from stable to negative, citing the state's pension funding shortfall and money management practices.
Illinois Treasurer Dan Rutherford said Friday the move will affect taxpayers.
"What this outlook means is if we do not act then they will continue to take us down," Rutherford said on a conference call with reporters. "The thing I want to make real clear is this does have impact on the taxpayers of Illinois."

Mistakes cost the bucs, Padres beat the bucs 9-2
"Don't sweat the small stuff". Well, in the Pirates case, maybe they should have. Many miscues cost the bucs as they lose for the third straight game to the Padres, 9-2, in front of a sell out crowd of 36,967.
After pitching five strong innings, striking out five batters, Karstens pitched a three-run sixth. After a leadoff single by Jerry Harriston Jr., he reached second on a error by Alvarez, Gonzalez and Headley both hit for RBI Singles making the game 3-2. After intentionally walking Will Venable, Hundley hit a sac fly giving the Padres a 4-2 lead.
Karstens threw 96 pitches over six innings, he was charged with 2ER.
I feel like I'm so close to getting over that hump," said Karstens, who fell to 2-6 and has not recorded a win since June 19, a span of six games after Saturday's loss. "There's a few things that haven't really gone my way, but it's just part of baseball. And what can I say? They gave me a 2-1 lead and I let it slip away."
Things got much worse for the Pirates in the eighth. Garrett Jones was issued an error on a ground ball from Headley. Sean Gallagher then allowed two more men to reach after Headley, loading the bases with no outs. Gallagher then balked in a run, Padres 5-2.
The game was delayed for almost 45 minutes due to rain. D.J. Carrasco came in to replace Gallagher and gave up two hits, scoring four more runs, a total of eight men came to the plate.
The two rough innings, two errors and balk overshadowed Jose Tabata's big night at the plate. He went 3 for 5, including an opposite field solo Home Run, his second of the year, and a double. He was a triple away from the cycle. Tabata batting .388 — 19 for 49 — over the past dozen games.
Delywn Young scored the only other run on the night, a solo homerun. Four of Young's five homeruns this season have came off pretty phoenominal arms; Roy Halladay, Steven Strasburg, Brian Wilson, and Matt Latos. In Delwyn's six straight starts, since replacing Andrew McCutchen, Young is batting .412, driving in seven runs, and has hit two homers.
We kept the game close," Russell said "They took the lead or tied it up, and D.Y. hit the home run. I thought that was big. Unfortunately, we gave them three the next inning. Can't take away that last part of the game, but it was a pretty well played game. I think our hitters hung in there pretty well."
The Padres are now 22-9 all-time at PNC Park and improve to 27-20 on the road this season, which is the most road wins in the National League.
Matt Latos improved to 11-4 on the season, his ERA at 2.48, opponents batting just .198 against him. His road starts have been even better for this young arm. He is 7-1 with a 1.36 ERA, 66 Strikeouts per 16 Walks and opponents batting .161 against him.
He was good," Russell said. "Threw hard up to 96 mph, changed speeds, mixed the breaking ball and changeup".
"The kid kept the ball down, threw hard," Young said. "I was pretty impressed, and I think we all were."
Today's Pitching Matchup:
In the series finale Brad Lincoln take the mound for the Bucs. He is 1-3 with an 6.29 ERA. His last outing – the shortest of his career – lasted just two and one thirds, giving up seven runs.
The Padres send Wade LeBlanc who is 4-8 this season with a 3.28 ERA. He struggles away from PETCO Park, going 2-4 in seven starts, an ERA at 4.78.

Sorry to hear the Buccos had a 3-peat this weekend in the "L" department. Sucks that rain delays can take the momentum built up by a team and squash it like a tiny insect.
D J Carrasco lately has been a solid piece of your Bullpen, and I hope he is not one of the guy on the shelf duint the Trade Deadline clearance sale.
But you only have to look to the thrid base position to see the future is beginning to show its head in Pittsburgh. Pedro Alvarez is beginning to heat up, and hopefully he can take the rest of the Pirates with him and provide some relief and good memories in 2010.

On a chilly day at Ocean Isle Beach Park, West Bladen saw its No. 1 doubles team of Lexi Storms and Erica Tanner finish in the runner-up spot of the Waccamaw Conference Tournament.
In singles action, the Lady Knights' No. 2 singles player Hannah Dowless took second place and their No. 4 singles player Nicole Nye took third.
With four, West Bladen qualified the most players for the state tournament out of the Waccamaw Conference.
The East Regionals will be played Friday, Oct. 19, and Saturday, Oct. 20, at Snow Hill High. Other conferences involved include the Northeast Coastal, East Central and Eastern Plains.
— The results of the Lady Eagles versus Whiteville High on Monday didn't match the effort, as East Bladen fell to the Lady Wolfpack by the scores of 25-15, 26-24 and 25-19.
The loss drops East Bladen to 5-13 overall and 2-8 in the Waccamaw Conference.
Leading the way for the Lady Eagles in the stat sheet was Lacey Suggs' eight service points. She also had an ace. Abbey Norris added three kills, a block and an ace. Miller Heustess contributed three aces and Melissa Macon had two aces.
Natalie Hardin added a block and a kill for East Bladen.
— In Leland on Tuesday, West Bladen High swept North Brunswick High in straight sets to clinch the top Class 2-A spot in the Waccamaw Conference by the scores of 25-18, 25-19 and 25-8.
The win improves the Lady Knights to 12-4 overall and 7-4 in the conference.
Kaitlyn Sykes led West Bladen on the stat sheet with 16 service points, and ace and a block. Mallory Davis followed with 12 service points, seven blocks and four kills. Danielle Dove contributed 10 service points and an ace, while Courtney Thompson added nine service points, five blocks, four kills and an ace.
Haley Cox also had nine service points and an ace, while Abbey Walters had eight service winners.
West Bladen, which won't play again until Tuesday when they host East Bladen High, already has their first state playoff match set up — they will host the East Central Conference's No. 5 team in the Castle on Saturday, Oct. 20.
— In Shallotte on Wednesday, West Brunswick High whitewashed the visiting Knights of West Bladen High in a Waccamaw Conference matchup, 9-0.
The loss drops West Bladen to 3-9 overall, 0-7 in the conference.
The Trojans tallied five goals in the first half and were never threatened, adding four more scores in the second half to seal the win.
Lucas McNeill, who was peppered with shots by the home team, recorded 11 saves in the nets for the Knights.
— In Southport on Wednesday, East Bladen High's Eagles were nipped by host South Brunswick High 2-1 in a Waccamaw Conference match.
The loss drops East Bladen to 4-8 overall and 1-5 in the conference.

It's sorely needed. A few more COGs (Jace Stratton, Anya Stroud and Sam Byrne), a few more Locusts (Bolter Drones, Flamer and Mauler Boomers, maybe some Nemacysts), more tiles (outdoors mostly), and missions, missions, missions.

Fantasy football sleepers: Defensive teams
Alex Henery, Philadelphia Eagles vs. Arizona Cardinals Fantasy value: High-end No. 1
Nick Folk, New York Jets vs. New England Patriots Fantasy value: High-end No. 1

The AF-S VR Zoom-NIKKOR 200-400mm f/4G IF ED Lens offers a significant advancement for professional telephoto photography, and is fully compatible with both 35mm and Digital SLR cameras.
The lens features an innovative Vibration Reduction (VR) system that allows handheld telephoto zoom shooting even in poorly lit conditions. The VR system minimizes image blur caused by camera shake, and offers the equivalent of shooting at a shutter speed 3 stops (8 times) faster.

In addition, the Silent Wave Motor (SWM) feature provides swift autofocus with superior accuracy and ultra-quiet operation. And the lens can be switched quickly from AF to manual focus. Four buttons in front of the lens' focus ring let the photographer easily select from the [AF-L], [MEMORY RECALL], and [AF-ON] functions. The Focus Preset function allows a distance to be set to which the focus mechanism will instantly and automatically return to.
The ideal zoom-telephoto lens for the discerning professional telephoto photographer.
VR function is only compatible with Nikon's F5, F100, N80, N65, D70, D100 & D1-series (or later) cameras.
AF-S lenses, while able to manually focus with all Nikon F-mount cameras, will autofocus ONLY with the following cameras- N65, N70/F70, N80/F80, N90s/F90x, F4, F4s, F5, F100, D100, D1 & D1x (or any newer models).

In today's business world, disruption is a constant force that never lets up. At the annual WIRED Business Conference: Disruptive by Design, we celebrate the creative power of bold new ideas and the people that make them happen. See the event >
Every day, hobbyists unbound by price or popularity proudly share mindblowing "MOCs" ("My Own Creations") that at times outshine the officially produced sets. Since 2008, Lego has offered a way for these creators to have their designs turned into official Lego products and receive a royalty for their efforts, but thus far only four projects, including a Minecraft Microworld and a Back to the Future time machine, have gathered the 10,000 fan votes and passed the stringent commercialization review which are required to make a kit official.
Many projects fail because they break the guidelines set forth by the committee overseeing the project, Cuusoo, such as designing kits around existing brands or creating overly large, complex, or expensive designs. Even more, however, never make it to market because of obscurity.
Earlier this month, Lego unveiled over 250 of its own new kits, hitting shelves throughout 2013 and 2014. While these new products were carefully designed to fit snugly onto retail planograms, hit aggressive price targets, and incorporate coveted brand licenses like Star Wars, most lacked Lego's trademark innovation.
Votes: 1,981
Designer: Rod Gillies
Lego makes an armada of Star Wars-themed vehicles, but they're all scaled to fit the prized minifigures. This makes kits large, expensive, and space-consuming. Scottish creator Rod Gillies designed a solution by recreating iconic scenes from the movies at "micro scale." For instance, in these models, the Millennium Falcon is made from 12 affordable and adorable bricks instead of 5,195, as the $499.99 collectors edition requires. With not even a fifth of the votes required, we find the lack of faith in this idea very disturbing.

Melinda Tidwell's Wonderful Collages Are Made With Book Parts And Found Images
Melinda Tidwell's collages and mixed media paintings are a fresh addition to the artwork on this blog. Her use of books, glue, found images, paper, glue and paint is clever and precise – a careful reorganization of material that creates its own language.
Her work is most definitely an outcome of her studies in mathematics and her career in computer graphics – an ideal mix of the mathematical and the visual. This lifelong interest in both abstract and visual languages has led her to find her artistic voice. And what a voice it is too.

I think I will do this for Christmas this year. I have tons of cards of all sorts and this would look wonderful as a bird house hanging off one of my snowman gourds don't ya think? LOL Just wanted to share. Enjoy Penny http://christmasnotebook.com/2...as-card-putz-houses/ Today, Tomorrow and always! If you see someone without a smile...give them one of yours! | |||
The little houses are so cute! And hanging from one of your snowman gourds would be adorable! | ||||
These little houses are adorable, and I want to make some! Thanks so much for posting them! | ||||
I love those little houses and have had this site bookmarked for quite sometime as " something I am going to make "" I think they are so cute and with all the pretty cards that most of us probably save, we could make some really neat ones. Maybe everyone who makes some will post photos on here. TFS | ||||
Those are really cute and if you would like to try one out and see how they look in someone's house - mine is available!! I may save the directions and attempt one, but they look like a lot of work and I'm sure they are worth it. Ginny | ||||
these are adorable... I think they would be really cute to put money inside for those that you are giving money to for Christmas.. just put repositional tape for opening.. and they get an ornament to keep and money to spend . I would love to make a bunch, thanks | ||||
Here's one that's different from the usual. http://www.michelemademe.com/2...ale-heart-house.html I do have some saved directions for Christmas card houses that may be less difficult if anyone is interested. Mary Ellen | ||||
I would merg01 as I do have trouble following directions lol | ||||
CoCo Cathy I've posted two in photobucket but, of course, the others are in pdf or word documents. If you'd like to send me a private message with your email I'll be glad to send. a few years ago I was gathering ideas for using Christmas cards and made the mistake of sharing my thoughts with my friend. Her church was thrilled to have a place to give the used cards and I ended up with pounds and pounds and pounds of cards (some duplicates which would have been handy). Unfortunately, I got sick of the boxes and boxes so I sent to my sister for Sunday School use.....wish I had them back. Mary Ellen | ||||
and I got yabbering and forgot the photobucket link. http://s79.photobucket.com/albums/j156/merg01/Misc/ | ||||
thank you | ||||
Thank you merg01 for the wonderful pics and site. More to do! LOL Penny Today, Tomorrow and always! If you see someone without a smile...give them one of yours! | ||||

It has been a big week for New Zealand's resident German millionaire Internet impresario. Rather than sit back in his sprawling, manicured mansion on the outskirts of Auckland and contemplate his possible extradition to the United States on fraud and copyright charges, he chose to act. Rather than settle in to an afternoon of Segway riding, swimming-pool cavorting and computer gaming, Kim Dotcom, instead, made some rather large pronouncements.
As with almost all his public statements these days, the news came through Twitter, where Dotcom, formally Kim Schmitz, has amassed almost 150,000 followers.
First, he teased last week at a comeback of Megaupload – the $500 million Internet hosting giant that was spectacularly shut down earlier this year after a police raid on his $30 million residence west of Auckland.
On Oct. 31, Dotcom announced that the countdown to the start of a new hosting site had begun. It would be complete in one hour.
"Servers overloaded. Adding capacity," he wrote, summoning the spirit of Star Trek's ship's engineer, Montgomery Scott.
"Millions of users hitting at once. I'm delighted by the interest. But servers can't handle it."
And then, finally, after suggesting the New Zealand Department of Justice might be illegally fiddling around in his servers, Dotcom announced his return to the Internet game.
"Me.ga – The return of the Jedi – May the Force be with us," he wrote.
Due to go live in January, the site would give users direct control — and responsibility — over their files through the use of individualized inscription keys.
It was, for the millions of users that pushed Megaupload into becoming one of the most visited Web sites in the world, some welcome news.
There are a few obstacles, however. One might lie with Dotcom's own words upon his arrest earlier this year on accusations of copyright infringement.
"I can assure the court that I have no intention and there is no risk of my reactivating the Megaupload.com Web site or establishing a similar Internet-based business during the period until the resolution of the extradition proceedings," he said, according to court documents.
Officials in the United States say his decision could open him up to further charges.
The other is that the country of Gabon, in central Africa, has suspended the Web site domain www.me.ga.
The Gabonese government said it was immediately suspending the site to "protect intellectual property rights" and "fight cybercrime effectively," the phys.org Web site reported. It was due to be hosted on Gabon's .ga domain.
But if that hoopla was not enough, Dotcom took another step.
Pacific Fibre was a project to bring high-speed Internet broadband to New Zealand, connecting it to the United States via Australia with a 8,000-mile-long fiber cable. It would double the country's bandwidth and cost about $330 million. In August, the project floundered with its founder, the Internet millionaire Sam Morgan, saying it had failed to attract enough capital.
Enter Dotcom, who announced he would try to push the project forward.
"Power is becoming the biggest cost factor for data centers around the world," he said. "With its own cable, cheap power and connectivity New Zealand could attract foreign Internet business."
The plan has piqued the interest of politicians and industry.
"If anyone can put together a deal like this, then it would be Kim Dotcom," said Paul Brislen, the chief executive of the Telecommunications Users Association of New Zealand.
Even Prime Minister John Key, who has had his hands full fighting off the consequences of a loose tongue, said Dotcom's efforts would be a positive step.
For such a deal to go through, Dotcom would not only need the money, the majority of which has been frozen, but as the director of Pacific Fibre, Rod Drury, noted on Twitter: "While I admire the @KimDotcom #megacable plan, there is a tiny flaw. US permission required to connect to USA."
And that, considering the saga that has unfolded in trying to bring Dotcom and his co-accused to trial, is unlikely to happen.
The New Zealand authorities, who acted on behalf of the United States, have been required to give back to Dotcom about $6 million in frozen assets after a court ruled the initial warrant used to raid his mansion was unlawful. And the country's foreign spy agency was embarrassed after it unlawfully intercepted information in preparation for the raid.
The Government Communications Security Bureau is responsible for monitoring the communications of foreign nations and cannot monitor New Zealand residents or citizens. The police reportedly told the bureau that Dotcom was a foreign national. He is, in fact, a resident.
Whatever happens with the fiber-optic cable project, Dotcom continues to receive good news — despite being out on bail since January. According to at least one commentator, if New Zealand had a man of the year award, Dotcom would be top of the list.
And that bad news? The Gabon communication minister, Blaise Louembe, said the African country could not "serve as a platform or screen for committing acts aimed at violating copyrights, nor be used by unscrupulous people."
Dotcom suggested that Gabon was merely pandering to U.S. orders.
"Gabon oil income is 60% of state revenues. Over half of Gabon's crude oil shipments go to the US" he wrote on Twitter. "This just demonstrates the bad faith witch hunt the US government is on."

Message To The Young
LP (Item 608281) Chess/Get On Down, 1971 — Condition: New Copy
Funky blues work from Howlin Wolf – his key entry into the funked-up genre that Chess Records was cutting at the end of the 60s with other blues artists like Etta James, Bo Diddley, and Muddy Waters! As on records with those artists, Wolf's older modes are updated here for a hipper, younger audience – backed up with a bouncing batch of electrified backings arranged by Sonny Thompson, and conducted by Thompson and Cash McCall, the latter of whom is most likely playing a bit of guitar here. Tracks are a bit longer than usual, and filled with plenty of heavy guitar bits next to the vocals – and titles include "I Smell A Rat", "Miss James", "If I Were A Bird", "She's Lookin Good", "Turn Me On", and "Message To The Young". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Romero to ask for document investigation
by henri lejeune
Special to The Advocate
October 23, 2012
NEW IBERIA — The Iberia Parish Council expects Parish President Errol "Romo" Romero to follow through on a planned request for Louisiana State Police to possibly discover who placed an unapproved job description for a public relations officer among his files.
The document describes the duties of the drainage maintenance supervisor, the position Holly Leleux-Thurbron held until she left the job recently, but the document was altered to include public relations duties and a new pay scale.
During Wednesday's council meeting, Council Chairman Bernard Broussard asked Romero to make the investigative request to State Police in light of the illegal activity. He said State Police can examine parish government computer hard drives to possibly discover the culprit.
Romero said he did not know who altered the job description or when it was placed there.
Councilman Thomas Landry asked Romero if he merged the job descriptions to fabricate a new one.
Romero said he did not know anything about it.
Parish Council legal adviser Dean Wattigny said the parish charter gives the council the authority to create or alter job descriptions not the parish president, who has hiring and firing powers under the charter.
Wattigny said the maintenance supervisor part of the job description was approved but not the public relations part. He added that the public relations job description did not exist until Romero's office requested it in January from the Archer Company, which writes job descriptions for the parish.
Other items discussed during the meeting included:
SECURITY CAMERAS: The council voted unanimously to allocate $14,000 to add at least four new cameras to the parish government building. Broussard said the cameras should allow them to monitor anyone in the parish president's office. The cameras will be placed in the fourth floor office hallways, he said, and all exits and entrances in the parish courthouse.
JAIL CONTRACT: Broussard said the council would research how much money the parish government and Sheriff's Office should each spend on maintenance and equipment at the parish jail.
The sheriff's 10-year contract to operate the jail expired last month, and even though the parish has approved a new maintenance and equipment contract, Sheriff Louis Ackal has not signed it.
Ackal said he is spending $1.5 million a year extra of Sheriff's Office funds to pay for maintenance and equipment at the jail when it should be coming from the council. He said the council pays $2 million a year on the jail.
Broussard said that because Ackal has not signed the new contract, the parish has had to start paying for electricity, water, sewage, gas, pest control, janitorial supplies and other utilities.
BUILDING PURCHASE: During the council's executive committee meeting, which was held after the regular meeting, council members voted unanimously to move forward with a resolution to study buying the former Fruit of the Loom facility in Jeanerette.
Council member Aquicline Arnold said the town of Jeanerette, which owns the vacant building, is willing to sell it. The building has been appraised at $3 million, Arnold said, but the parish may be able to get it for $2 million.
Arnold said Si Brown, owner of Bruce Foods, is interested in locating in the building.
Broussard said that if a tenant is willing to move into the building then getting a loan to pay for the purchase and maintenance might be easier to obtain.
Arnold, whose district covers part of the Jeanerette area, said the Jeanerette officials wants to sell the building to the parish because they feel the parish has more resources to lease it.

Darrick Patrick
About me:
If you know me from my "Human Life", then it's probably from around Northridge, Dayton, or New Orleans. If you know me through various electronical means, it's most likely from the interviews that I do with people that you may or may not know of yet (but that you should definitely know about regardless): Interviews by Darrick Patrick. You could also perhaps know me from the weird "home video style stunt comedy" footage that I sometimes shoot, which can mostly be found being occasionally uploaded by lil' bits and pieces over on my personal YouTube page. There may be a slim chance you're a (censored) and know me as the guy who runs (censored) over at (censored). Or then again it's quite possible that I might very well be a brand new person to you. Feel free to hit me up.And of course: My Twitter Site and My Facebook Area
I also have another YouTube page now that is for everything in my life that isn't directly involved with the Digested Puddle stunt comedy project. It's a random array of different footage: Darrick Patrick Extra (Secondary YouTube Account)

I will get back to you if you leave me a comment that is personalized, but it may take me more than a moment to respond. And to be honest, I've been terrible about getting back to people on here lately. Extremely terrible. However, I will respond eventually. Also, it might be a waste of your time to send me an inbox message because I rarely check that area due to the overcrowding of mail.Music
Hip Hop, hardcore, some classical, blues, jazz, intelligent lounge, sludge metal, spoken word, and tons of music really. I'm not too particular on genres, I just dig what appeals to my ear. Some of the artists in general that I enjoy are: Mike Patton, Dax Riggs, Chuck D, Kool Keith, Sublime, Henry Rollins, KRS-One, Hank III, Legbone, Down, Frank Zappa, Acid Bath, Gravediggaz, Mr Bungle, Erykah Badu, Candiria, Beck, Agents Of Oblivion, Eyehategod, Fantomas, Fine Arts Militia, Mazzy Star, Assjack, The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy, Soilent Green, Dead Prez, Billie Holiday, Meshuggah, Crash Test Dummies, Eyedea & Abilities, Morphine, Black Flag, Crotchduster, Portishead, Funkdoobiest, Mudhoney, etc. - and I always enjoy listening to thinkers like George Carlin and Bill Hicks.Movies
Horror, special interest, documentary style, dark comedies, good ol' hardcore dramas, etc. Some of the movies that I've enjoyed are: Cannibal Holocaust, Dead Alive, Pii, Gummo, Hellraiser, Cecil B Demented, Evil Dead, Unforgiven, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I Heart Huckabees, Shaun Of The Dead, Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas, Eraserhead, American Psycho, Dazed And Confused, Bad Taste, KIDS, Ninja Scroll, Rory O'Shea Was Here, The Devil's Rejects, I Spit On Your Grave, Life Is Beautiful, Redneck Zombies, Clockwork Orange, The People Under The Stairs, Memento, Blue Velvet, Where The Buffalo Roam, The Smashing Machine, and blah, blah, blah, etc.Television
Instead of listing television shows, I'll be using this little area to place links to various projects or whatever. Just stuff I've done or been involved with. For now, it'll just be a couple old freestyle mixtape albums from 2004/2005.
September Freestyles. The first freestyle album I did back in 2004 consisting of 36 songs. They're all one-track recordings using Windows XP Sound Recorder and a broken microphone. Some explicit content: September Freestyles (2004)
Mental Dislocation. The second freestyle album I did back in 2004 consisting of 40 songs. They're all one-track recordings using Windows XP Sound Recorder and a broken microphone. Some explicit content: Mental Dislocation (2004)
Brand New Galaxy. The third freestyle album I did back in 2004 consisting of 25 songs. They're all one-track recordings using Windows XP Sound Recorder and a broken microphone. Some explicit content: Brand New Galaxy (2004)
Abstract Humanity. The fourth freestyle album I did back in 2005 consisting of 24 songs. They're all one-track recordings using Windows XP Sound Recorder and a broken microphone. Some explicit content: Abstract Humanity (2005)
Reconstructive Projections. The fifth freestyle album I did back in 2005 consisting of 24 songs. They're all one-track recordings using Windows XP Sound Recorder and a broken microphone. Some explicit content: Reconstructive Projections (2005)
The Unalbuminated Freestyles of Darrick Patrick. These are random tracks that were documented, but never put on any of the albums. They're all recorded with different equipment at different time frames throughout the years. Some explicit content: The Unalbuminated Freestyles of Darrick PatrickBooks
Personally I enjoy a little "art museum" to go with my words, so I'm very much into "comic books". Some of the titles that have struck me as readable are: The Walking Dead, Swamp Thing, Kabuki, Hellraiser, The Boys, X-Statix, Punisher (MAX Series), Y: The Last Man, Bite Club, Johnny The Homicidal Maniac, Alias, We3, Badger, Lobo, Marvel Zombies, DMZ, Animal Man, Lenore, Preacher, Jinx, Squee, Loveless, Channel Zero, The Exterminators, Haunt Of Horror, Tarot: Witch Of The Black Rose, most Vertigo titles, the IDW and Avatar horror books, and tons of other books I couldn't possibly spend the time lettering out here.Heroes
The response to this one might be too numerous a list to compile. Then again, it might not be much of a list at all. It'll all get figured out eventually.

Can't wait till he shatters Morris Almond's record
Yes, please do that. Burks too if they won't play him/trade him.

Great line from Jazz GM Dennis Lindsey on rookie Kevin Murphy's new D-League assignment: "We don't want him to be a pig scorer."

Urban Dictionary doesn't know what "Pig scorer' means. Anyone want to enlighten me?

This is the type of Texas talk Dennis Lindsey said he'd bring. RT@RobTmanJr: "pig scorer" needs to trend on Twitter. We can make this happen

They should send Kanter there as well. He plays same minutes like last year but his numbers are down and he looks horrible to be honest. 35 min a game in NBDL and having a chance to score 25+pts would be beneficial for him I think.

Kevin Murphy's 'official' nickname:
Seriously tho, he's talented from what I have seen, but as long as Burks is on the team not getting time, he sure isn't going to get any.
