Logan High School's theater classes have combined their talents for one of the most beloved musicals of all time.
"Grease" will be presented Thursday, Nov. 1, Friday, Nov. 2, and Saturday, Nov. 3, in the Phyllis Adkins Little Theater. All shows start promptly at 7 p.m. Tickets are $6 each. In school performances are scheduled this week for Logan Middle School and next week for Logan High School.
Take a trip back in time with Rydell High's senior class of 1959: duck-tailed, hot-rodding "T-Birds" and their gum-snapping, hip-shaking "Pink Ladies" in bobby sox and pedal pushers, evoking the look and sound of the 1950s in this rollicking musical. Head "greaser" Danny Zuko and new (good) girl Sandy Dumbrowski try to relive the high romance of their "Summer Nights" as the rest of the gang sings and dances its way through such songs as "Greased Lightnin'", and "We Go Together" recalling the music of Buddy Holly, Little Richard and Elvis Presley that became the soundtrack of a generation. Easily, one of the world's most popular musicals.
Danny will be played by Logan High School junior, Samuel Corns, Sandy will be played by sophomore Skylar Pritchard, Kenickie is sophomore Jacob Adkins, Rizzo will be played by junior Sam Shell, Marty will be played by sophomore Shana Nelson, Roger is sophomore Jackson Frye, Frenchy will be junior Katie Hall, Sonny is freshman Shelby Lee Adkins, Jan is sophomore Elisha Marcum and Doody is portrayed by Hunter Napier.
Patty Simcox is sophomore Chelsey Rupert, Eugene is sophomore Shane Vance, Vince Fontaine is junior Dylan Vidovich, Johnny Casino is sophomore Richard Ojeda, Teen Angel is played by Jason McCloud and Miss Lynch is portrayed by Cassie Vandall.
Rydell students are played by: Cheyenne Sellards, Michael Willis, Stephanie Davies, Alex Wooten, Alex Crum and Ariel Estep.
The show is being directed by Bill France with the assistance of musical director Ellen Woods Ramey. Student Kandice Trejo is stage manager, while Emily Cox is pit manager for the production. "This is a true Logan High production," France said, "in addition to our actors, Jeremy Frazier's welding class built Greased Lightin' which was donated by Billy Bender at Bender's Salvage, Mr. Justice's art classes has helped with props and so many teachers and administrators have been supportive and helpful to us during this process. We would like to invite everyone to come and out and see what an incredible job our students have done."

Kill The White People
Eddie Murphy at his best, old school.
- This is EPIC!!! One of the funniest things ever! Eddie Murphy is a genius!! <3
- What happen to Eddie?
- An old fav...
- all in fun but every one should see this once in life so funny
- Not funny at all. What would happen if a w hite person sang 'kill the black people'?
- lol awesome a little history for some people who may find this not funny. hes portraying a Haitian person not Jamaican. in the 80's the Haitian ppl had a bad riot and killed a lot of white people.. that's not funny but what do actors do to help at tragic times... make us laugh.. just think about that before you yell foul play
- Best SNL song ever!
- hahathats pretty funny shit
- A funny Eddie Murphy moment..
- That Is A Serious Throwback Right There, Eddie Murphy's Funniest Skit EVER!!!!!, As To Linda-Johnson-Ratzlaff's Comments.....ITS A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!, Even White People Like this Skit Because Its A JOKE & FUNNY.
- I think you would have to be somewhat familiar with reggae and/or listen to the lyrics other than the chorus to truly get the joke.
- is funny for me bat >>> Linda she don like same one took abut White People if you feel me then goo sleep in fuck of
- (Linda Johnson Ratzlaffin ) for me Eddie Murphy best comedian in world you need to watch he's stand comedy in stoop took sheet
- hey linda shut up-Eddie is god
- I live in a Shanty in a Shanty Town...
- hy guys,,,,....,,,,...
- That's was sooo funny! Humm I needed that!
- Funniest shit ever right here!!!! Can't stop laughin. Also loved Coming to America. Love that movie!!
- "I thought they were going to do Day-O"
- Linda, get a life, it's comedy. Learn to laugh at the imperfections of this world.
- Thank you for uploading this. This SNL skit is Hilarious!!!
- "... but buy my record first." Eddie Murphy at his best.
- Eddie merely copied an old SNL skit from 1975. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGBw8jS3sMw
- It's funny because it's a casual riff not only on racial tension but also on how older people misunderstand younger people. And yes white people, being in this country affords you certain privileges but it also opens you—the majority—to satire. It doesn't work in the other direction because of the power differential; a stronger power picking on a weaker one seems unfair fundamentally. But as our conservative friends like to remind everyone, life's not fair.

TÜV inspection - major defects again on the increase
The percentage of vehicles exhibiting major defects in the general vehicle inspection at TÜV NORD has now increased to 19.6 %. This means that more than 2.2 million defective cars would be on the roads in northern Germany if their faults had not been repaired as a result of the TÜV inspection. If this percentage were applied to all the vehicles in Germany, there would be a total of 8.4 million vehicles which could place the safety of other road users and/or the integrity of the environment at risk. But there is also an upwards trend at the other end of the spectrum: the number of vehicles which passed the inspection without any faults at all has also increased again - to an impressive 58 %. These are the results of statistical analysis of the TÜV inspections which were performed by the TÜV independent experts at the 220 TÜV STATIONS and at more than 10,000 partner workshops between July 2010 and June 2011. Harald Reutter and Klaus Jürgensen presented the current figures from TÜV NORD in Bremen in the year which marked the 60th anniversary of the general vehicle inspection and the 50th anniversary of the TÜV badge.
The past year was a special year in the history of the general inspection, as it was introduced for the first time exactly 60 years ago, on 1 December 1951. There had been technical inspections before, but these were performed on the specific instruction of the relevant authorities, and there were no fixed intervals. Then, fifty years ago, in other words in 1961, the TÜV inspection badge was introduced - providing a visible sign that vehicles had been tested for road safety by the TÜV and also showing the date for the next inspection.
As Harald Reutter, Managing Director of TÜV NORD Mobilität, says: "The TÜV badge has been a success story of wide-ranging significance. It stands for technically reliable vehicles, a high level of traffic safety and also ease of administration."
However, the results from 2011 are not necessarily a cause for celebration.
The reason: The negative trend is continuing. In the past five years, the percentage of cars with major defects has risen steadily (from 17.1% in 2007 to the present level of 19.6 % (previous year: 19.0 %).
But: The number of vehicles that have presented themselves for inspection and had no faults has also continuously increased: this year, almost 58 out of every 100 cars were considered defect-free (previous year: 57.5 %, the percentage for 2007 was 52.7 %).
The number of vehicles with slight defects has fallen, now amounting to 22.7 per cent (previous year: 23.5 %, 2007: 30.2 %).
The number of vehicles considered to be totally unroadworthy is relatively constant at between 0.03 and 0.04 per cent.
The contrasting trends (on the one hand more vehicles with major defects, on the other hand also more vehicles without any defects whatsoever) were explained by Klaus Jürgensen when presenting the current TÜV NORD figures: "On the one hand, manufacturers produce good cars which can still be defect-free after many years. On the other hand, too many drivers do not concern themselves sufficiently with the technical aspects of their cars. Drivers want to have a well-functioning means of transport to take them safely from A to B, but do not want to devote the necessary attention to it. Many also shy away from regular workshop inspection and maintenance for reasons of cost, and that is a mistake. On the other hand, those who take care of their vehicles and have them serviced by a qualified workshop need have no fear of the inspection."
The type of defects that are found also indicate that many drivers do not take enough care to ensure that their vehicles are safe. "Lights and electrical systems" are still by far top of the list – despite the fact that it is relatively easy to check the vehicle lighting. The list of defects which occur more than once also shows that there is often more than one defect as regard the lights. These results accord with the experiences from the lighting initiative, which is also always carried out by the TÜV in the month of October.
Altogether, the most frequently found defects appear in this order: "lights, electrical systems", "brakes", "axles, wheels, tyres" and "environmental pollution".
The older the vehicles become, the higher the number of those which do not receive their TÜV badge straight away. At the first inspection, at the age of three years, 5.6 per cent of the cars exhibit major defects (previous year: 5.2 per cent). At the age of five, it is already 10.2 per cent (previous year: 10.4%) and so it goes on up to the eleven-year-olds, where 27.9 per cent have to visit the workshop for repairs.
The average mileage which is to be considered as an additional factor in the number and type of defects is now 52,656 kilometres in the case of three-year-old cars and 133,528 kilometres in the case of eleven-year-olds.
The Toyota Prius was the best car again this year and was winner of the "Golden Badge". The Prius is designed as a hybrid vehicle, and is powered by a combination of internal combustion engine and electric drive. The well-dimensioned batteries did not exhibit negative features in the safety inspections and also demonstrated a long lifetime.
Harald Reutter: "In 2011 it has again become clear that the Prius, as a hybrid vehicle, offers high levels of safety. And we at TÜV NORD are seriously committed to ensuring that this is true of all vehicles in the electromobility sector. We support the objective of bringing attractive and safe electric vehicles into circulation as rapidly as possible. In fact, just a short time ago we opened an eSTATION as a solar vehicle charging station and we now operate a small fleet of electric vehicles ourselves. Our engineers are very involved with the theme of electromobility - for vehicle and traffic safety, for reliable batteries, improved range and more consumer-friendly and secure handling of data."

Migrating data across filesystems is now handled natively by splunkd. * If you specify a script here, the script becomes responsible for moving the data, and Splunk's native data migration will not be used. * The script must accept two arguments: * First: the warm directory (bucket) to be rolled to cold. * Second: the destination in the cold path. * Searches and other activities are paused while the script is running. * Contact Splunk Support (http://www.splunk.com/page/submit_issue) if you need help configuring this setting. * Defaults to empty. coldToFrozenScript = [path to program that runs script] <path to script> * Specify the path to the archiving script itself with <path to script> * If your script requires a program to run it (e.g. python), specify that first. Otherwise just specify the script path. * Splunk ships with an example archiving script in $SPLUNK_HOME/bin called coldToFrozenExample.py * Splunk DOES NOT recommend using this example script directly. * It uses a default path, and if modified in place any changes will be overwritten on upgrade. * We recommend copying the example script to a new file in bin and modifying it for your system * Most importantly, change the default archive path to an existing directory that fits your needs. * If your new script in bin/ is named myColdToFrozen.py, set this key to the following: coldToFrozenScript = "$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/python" "$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/myColdToFrozen.py" * By default, the example script has two possible behaviors when archiving: * For buckets created from version 4.2 and on, it will remove all files except for rawdata * To thaw: cd to the frozen bucket and type "splunk rebuild .", then copy the bucket to thawed for that index * For older-style buckets, we simply gzip all the .tsidx files * To thaw: cd to the frozen bucket and unzip the tsidx files, then copy the bucket to thawed for that index * The script must be in $SPLUNK_HOME/bin or a subdirectory thereof. coldToFrozenDir = <path to frozen archive> * An alternative to a coldToFrozen script - simply specify a destination path for the frozen archive * Splunk will automatically put frozen buckets in this directory * Bucket freezing policy is as follows: * New style buckets (4.2 and on): removes all files but the rawdata * To thaw: run 'splunk rebuild <bucket dir>' on the bucket, then move to the thawed directory * Old style buckets (Pre-4.2): gzip all the .data and .tsidx files * To thaw: gunzip the zipped files and move the bucket into the thawed directory * If both coldToFrozenDir and coldToFrozenScript are specified, coldToFrozenDir will take precedence compressRawdata = [true|false] * This parameter is ignored. The splunkd process always compresses raw data. maxConcurrentOptimizes = <integer> * The number of concurrent optimize processes that can run against the hot DB. * This number should be increased if: * There are always many small tsidx files in the hot DB. * After rolling, there are many tsidx files in warm or cold DB. maxDataSize = [<integer>|auto|auto_high_volume] * The maximum size in MB for a hot DB to reach before a roll to warm is triggered. * Specifying "auto" or "auto_high_volume" will cause Splunk to autotune this parameter (recommended). * You should use "auto_high_volume" for high volume indexes (such as the main index); otherwise, use "auto". A "high volume index" would typically be considered one that gets over 10GB of data per day. * "auto" sets the size to 750MB. * "auto_high_volume" sets the size to 10GB on 64-bit, and 1GB on 32-bit systems. * Although the maximum value you can set this is 1048576 MB, which corresponds to 1 TB, a reasonable number ranges anywhere from 100 - 50000. Any number outside this range should be approved by Splunk support before proceeding. * If you specify an invalid number or string, maxDataSize will be auto tuned. * NOTE: The precise size of your warm buckets may vary from maxDataSize, due to post-processing and timing issues with the rolling policy. rawFileSizeBytes = <positive integer> * Deprecated in version 4.2 and later. We will ignore this value. * Rawdata chunks are no longer stored in individual files. * If you really need to optimize the new rawdata chunks (highly unlikely), edit rawChunkSizeBytes rawChunkSizeBytes = <positive integer> * Target uncompressed size in bytes for individual raw slice in the rawdata journal of the index. * Defaults to 131072 (128KB). * 0 is not a valid value. if 0 is specified, rawChunkSizeBytes will be set to the default value. * NOTE: rawChunkSizeBytes only specifies a target chunk size. The actual chunk size may be slightly larger by an amount proportional to an individual event size. * WARNING: This is an advanced parameter. Only change it if you are instructed to do so by Splunk Support. minRawFileSyncSecs = [<integer>|disable] * How frequently we force a filesystem sync while compressing journal slices. During this interval, uncompressed slices are left on disk even after they are compressed. Then we force a filesystem sync of the compressed journal and remove the accumulated uncompressed files. * If 0 is specified we force a filesystem sync after every slice completes compressing * Specifying "disable" disables syncing entirely: uncompressed slices are removed as soon as compression is complete * Defaults to "disable". * Some filesystems are very inefficient at performing sync operations, so only enable this if you are sure it is needed maxMemMB = <integer> * The amount of memory to allocate for indexing. * This amount of memory will be allocated PER INDEX THREAD, or, if indexThreads is set to 0, once per index. * IMPORTANT: Calculate this number carefully. splunkd will crash if you set this number higher than the amount of memory available. * Defaults to 5. * The default is recommended for all environments. blockSignSize = <integer> * Controls how many events make up a block for block signatures. * If this is set to 0, block signing is disabled for this index. * Defaults to 0. * A recommended value is 100. maxHotSpanSecs = <positive integer> * Upper bound of target maximum timespan of hot/warm buckets in seconds. * Defaults to 7776000 seconds (90 days). * NOTE: if you set this too small, you can get an explosion of hot/warm buckets in the filesystem. The system sets a lower bound implicitly for this parameter at 3600, but this is an advanced parameter that should be set with care and understanding of the characteristics of your data. maxHotIdleSecs = <positive integer> * Maximum life, in seconds, of a hot bucket. * If a hot bucket exceeds maxHotIdleSecs, Splunk rolls it to warm. * This setting operates independently of maxHotBuckets, which can also cause hot buckets to roll. * A value of 0 turns off the idle check (equivalent to INFINITE idle time). * Defaults to 0. maxHotBuckets = <positive integer> * Maximum hot buckets that can exist per index. * When maxHotBuckets is exceeded, Splunk rolls the least recently used (LRU) hot bucket to warm. * Both normal hot buckets and quarantined hot buckets count towards this total. * This setting operates independently of maxHotIdleSecs, which can also cause hot buckets to roll. * Defaults to 3. quarantinePastSecs = <positive integer> * Events with timestamp of quarantinePastSecs older than "now" will be dropped into quarantine bucket. * Defaults to 77760000 (900 days). * This is a mechanism to prevent the main hot buckets from being polluted with fringe events. quarantineFutureSecs = <positive integer> * Events with timestamp of quarantineFutureSecs newer than "now" will be dropped into quarantine bucket. * Defaults to 2592000 (30 days). * This is a mechanism to prevent main hot buckets from being polluted with fringe events. maxMetaEntries = <unsigned integer> * Sets the maximum number of unique lines in .data files in a bucket, which may help to reduce memory consumption * If exceeded, a hot bucket is rolled to prevent further increase * If your buckets are rolling due to Strings.data hitting this limit, the culprit maybe the 'punct' field in your data. If you don't use punct, it may be best to simply disable this (see props.conf.spec) * There is a delta between when maximum is exceeded and bucket is rolled. This means a bucket may end up with epsilon more lines than specified, but this is not a major concern unless excess is significant * If set to 0, this setting is ignored (it is treated as infinite) syncMeta = [true|false] * When "true", a sync operation is called before file descriptor is closed on metadata file updates. * This functionality was introduced to improve integrity of metadata files, especially in regards to operating system crashes/machine failures. * Defaults to true. * NOTE: Do not change this parameter without the input of a Splunk support professional. serviceMetaPeriod = <integer> * Defines how frequently metadata is synced to disk, in seconds. * Defaults to 25 (seconds). * You may want to set this to a higher value if the sum of your metadata file sizes is larger than many tens of megabytes, to avoid the hit on I/O in the indexing fast path. partialServiceMetaPeriod = <integer> * Related to serviceMetaPeriod. If set, it enables metadata sync every <integer> seconds, but only for records where the sync can be done efficiently in-place, without requiring a full re-write of the metadata file. Records that require full re-write will be sync'ed at serviceMetaPeriod. * <integer> specifies how frequently it should sync. Zero means that this feature is turned off and serviceMetaPeriod is the only time when metadata sync happens. * If the value of partialServiceMetaPeriod is greater than serviceMetaPeriod, this setting will have no effect. * By default it is turned off (zero). throttleCheckPeriod = <integer> * Defines how frequently Splunk checks for index throttling condition, in seconds. * Defaults to 15 (seconds). * NOTE: Do not change this parameter without the input of a Splunk Support professional. isReadOnly = [true|false] * Set to true to make an index read-only. * If true, no new events can be added to the index, but it is still searchable. * Defaults to false. homePath.maxDataSizeMB = <integer> * Limits the size of the hot/warm DB to the maximum specified size, in MB. * If this size is exceeded, Splunk will move buckets with the oldest value of latest time (for a given bucket) into the cold DB until the DB is below the maximum size. * If this attribute is missing or set to 0, Splunk will not constrain size of the hot/warm DB. * Defaults to 0. coldPath.maxDataSizeMB = <integer> * Limits the size of the cold DB to the maximum specifed size, in MB. * If this size is exceeded, Splunk will freeze buckets with the oldest value of latest time (for a given bucket) until the DB is below the maximum size. * If this attribute is missing or set to 0, Splunk will not constrain size of the cold DB. * Defaults to 0. #****************************************************************************** # Volume settings. This section describes settings that affect the volume # stanzas only. All volume stanzas begin with "volume:". For example: # [volume:volume_name] # path = /foo/bar # These volume stanzas can then be referenced by individual indexes, by # using the homePath or coldPath stanza. To refer to a stanza, use the # "volume:" prefix. For example, to set a cold DB to the example stanza above, # use: # coldPath = volume:volume_name/baz # This will cause the cold DB files to be placed under /foo/bar/baz. # # Note: thawedPath may not be defined in terms of a volume. # Thawed allocations are manually controlled by Splunk administrators, # typically in recovery or archival/review scenarios, and should not # trigger changes in space automatically used by normal index activity. #****************************************************************************** path = <path on server> * Required. * Points to the location on the file system where all databases that use this volume will reside. You must make sure that this location does not overlap with that of any other volume or index database. maxVolumeDataSizeMB = <integer> * Optional. * If set, this attribute will limit the total cumulative size of all databases that reside on this volume to the maximum size specified, in MB. * If the size is exceeded, Splunk will remove buckets with the oldest value of latest time (for a given bucket) across all indexes in the volume, until the volume is below the maximum size. Note that this can cause buckets to be frozen directly from a warm DB, if those buckets happen to have the oldest value of latest time across all indexes in the volume.

Reaction to proposed teacher raises guarded
Gov. Rick Scott announced this week he will be including $480 million in his proposed 2013 budget, with the money earmarked toward $2,500 raises for all full-time K-12 teachers.
The amount will also include the cost of related expenses, but not new funds for support staff, although Scott indicated there will be additional money for them in his upcoming budget as well.

Election Ad Tracker
View, rate, and fact check the latest campaign ads.
I was telling people months ago, back when Mitt Romney still seemed like a strong and resolute candidate who made liberals nervous and led the occasional national general-election poll, that Barack Obama was going to win reelection fairly easily. I still basically think that. But now I'm jumpy because everybody else, and I mean everybody, seems to think this now, too. And I get especially jumpy when I see signs that the Obama campaign is sounding ridiculously overconfident. There's a line between swagger that keeps the other side on the defensive and swagger that just doesn't quite sound credible, and I'm hearing a little too much of the latter.
I was reminded of this by Adam Nagourney's article in Monday's New York Times, bringing news that the Obama people are out there talking about how maybe they can win Arizona. And maybe they can. The most recent polling I've seen from the state gives Romney an 11-point lead. Of course, that's Rasmussen, who tends to lean right, so you take it for what it's worth. Another poll not too long ago had a 47–47 tie. But Romney appears to lead the state right now by 5 or so points.
So what is campaign manager Jim Messina doing telling the Times that Arizona "is going to be a swing state" and the only "question is, whether we can get enough people registered to put it in play this year." I'd say that before he starts dreaming about Arizona, Obama has to defend about seven states he won that are right now pretty up in the air, or in one case gone: Indiana (gone), along with North Carolina, Virginia, Nevada, Iowa, and, of course the two biggies, Ohio and Florida. Other people throw Michigan and Pennsylvania in there, but my little list alone counts for 98 electoral votes, and with a couple of turns of bad luck, Obama could lose every single one of them. So I don't think I'd be talking to the nation's leading newspaper about Arizona in April, with the election still half a year away.
Here's another thing I've been noticing quietly, which not enough people seem to be focused on: Obama's fundraising numbers aren't really that strong. Sure, on the one hand, it's an obscene amount of money—$53 million raised in March—and it's far more than Romney has raised. But Obama is several million dollars behind where he was in 2008, and is probably not on track to raise the $1 billion that some of his people used to brag about. Obama's own super PAC got off to a rocky start. The conservative super-PACs, meanwhile, are going to be throwing tens of millions of dollars' worth of ads on the air in late October and early November. Now I tend to believe that money, even in the form of scorching negative ads, stops making a difference after a certain saturation point has been hit. There is such a thing as overkill, even in politics. But we'll certainly see a new testing of the boundaries this fall. We can't discount the possibility, which is real, that anonymous millions might play a big role in deciding this race.
Andrew Sullivan and Ross Douthat on heretics and Mitt Romney.
Finally, of course, there is the economy. If the tepid March job numbers weren't a reminder to the Obama team that it was early to be choreographing end-zone dances, then it's hard to say what would be. Two more months like that and we'll certainly have a tight race again.
In addition to all this, the inevitable day will come, sometime in June would be my guess, or maybe even earlier, when the media will start in with the "Romney's back!" stories. He'll give a good speech somewhere, a poll will announce some results favorable to him, or, best of all, some Hollywood type will say something unpardonably vulgar about him, which will set the Mark Halperin caucus whopping with derision about how out of touch Obama and his supporters are, and surely this will expose them and rally regular Americans to Romney's cause. The press won't want a runaway race all summer, so it will manufacture a close contest even if Romney doesn't have the wherewithal to provide one.
And there is a chance Romney will actually do something smart. He is not a stupid man. He might make a surprising and daring vice-presidential pick (not Sarah Palin surprising and daring, but actually surprising and daring). He might do something that suggests the presence in his body of a spine.
A poll just out from CNN (pdf) shows the depth of Romney's problem. Obama leads 52–43 (so, above the magic 50 percent marker). But more than that, the pollsters asked people whether their vote was an affirmative vote for their candidate or a negative vote against the other guy. For Obama, three quarters of his votes were affirmative. For Romney, two thirds were against Obama. That's really lame. But it's also the kind of thing that campaigns exist to change.
I haven't really changed my mind these past few months. Most signs point toward Obama winning by 4 or 5 points, and sometimes it's remarkable how little these things change—1996 is an example, when Bob Dole never did make a serious run at Bill Clinton, because people just didn't want Bob Dole as their president. Also 2004: John Kerry kept it close but never got over the hump. So far, this election feels like those. But Obama is only what I would call perilously ahead—a phrase his team would do well to remember.

Abed Nadir
Comments37this wiki
When you really know who you are and what you like about yourself, changing for other people isn't such a big deal.
— Abed Nadir , Physical Education
Abed Gubi Nadir (portrayed by Danny Pudi) is a student at Greendale Community College, so he can one day take over his father's falafel restaurant. Abed's birthday was revealed in "Critical Film Studies" on March 24. Abed had a difficult life growing up, due in part to his parents. His father is a Palestinian from Gaza and his mother Polish American, which was a source of cultural discord. On top of that, Abed's undiagnosed psychological condition also put more strain on the relationship. His mother left his family when he was 6 years old and Abed assumed his father blamed him for it. This created distance between them and resulted in Abed alienating himself further by immersing himself in American pop-culture. His father allowed him to enroll at Greendale Community College primarily so he could take classes which would help him one day take over his dad's Falafel restaurant. Eventually he convinces his father to let him study Film making instead.
It is hinted that Abed has Asperger's syndrome, reflected in his inability to pick up on social or emotional cues ("Pilot"). Abed is quite intelligent, fluent in three languages (English, Polish and Arabic) and possesses keen observational skills. He often accurately predicts other people's behaviours ("Debate 109") although it's shown he is not infallible ("Virtual Systems Analysis"). He'll draw connections to real life situations through pop culture and meta references gained after years of watching TV and movies ("Pilot"). However, he has problems understanding emotions and has a particular difficulty with sarcasm ("Accounting for Lawyers"). He is surprisingly athletic ("The Politics of Human Sexuality"), a skilled dancer ("Interpretive Dance"), and a good singer/rapper ("Somewhere Out There"), ("Spanish Rap]").Besides his love of Filmmaking, Abed also likes to indulge in role-play and often assumes different characters from various genres of entertainment. Occasionally he'll go too far in these roles which has threatened his friendship with Troy ("Contemporary Impressionists") and the rest of the study group ("Contemporary American Poultry"). He states his religion to be Islam ("Comparative Religion") although he doesn't follow the strict tenets of his faith ("Mixology Certification").Even with his eccentricities, Abed has been shown to be very attractive to women ("Physical Education"), ("The Art of Discourse") and claims to have made out with the prettiest girl on campus ("The Art of Discourse"). After Britta has him and the study group take a personality test ("Competitive Ecology"), the results suggested that he is the sanest member of the group ("Horror Fiction in Seven Spooky Steps").

Abed was enrolled in business and restaurant management classes to take over his fathers Falafel restaurant, despite his desire to take film classes and become a director. Britta convinced Abed to pursue his dreams of being a filmmaker and he switched his major to film. Abed rapidly became well-known on campus for his movies as his short online films became very popular. He began to hang out with Troy and by the end of the year they had become the best of friends.

–Abed, "Remedial Chaos Theory" |
Season ThreeEdit
Abed's third year at school sees him moving into an apartment with Troy and inviting Annie to stay with them as well. Despite his eccentricities it is hinted by a psychology test he took that he might be the sanest one on the study group. The general darkness of that year coupled with certain actions on his part that put a strain put on his relationship with Troy, made Abed retreat further into his fantasies via his special play room "The Dreamatorium". The study group's expulsion from school and the subsequent loss of Troy to the Greendale Air Conditioning Repair School was enough to cause him to assume the identity of "Evil Abed".

"History 101": Freaked out that that it's the study group's senior year and that it means the end of the study group's friendship, Abed retreats into the "Happy Place" in his mind - a sitcom version of his life.
Relationships in the study groupEdit
Abed joined the study group to meet people and to learn Spanish. Although Abed is well-liked and accepted by the group he admits to being the outcast due to his inability to understand or properly express emotions. The observer of the group, he often sits quietly while everyone talks and argues, occasionally entering the conversation with a reference to a TV show or movie that is analogous to the situation. Abed become best friends with Troy Barnes and they are usually seen hanging out together and coming up with crazy ideas to put into action.
(See main article: "Troy and Abed")
Troy and Abed are best friends whose bromance has been prominently featured on the show. The other members of the study group are both amused and disturbed at how close the two are. Their many misadventures at Greendale inevitably drag their friends into hijinks and the entire school a few times as well. Because Abed is unable to adequately express emotion, and Troy is overly emotional, this has lead to a few conflicts between them. They soon make up, however, as they understand they are better together than apart.
Jeff and Abed were the first members of the study group to meet on camera (Abed had met and talked to Britta prior to his conversation with Jeff although it's not shown). As Abed is someone who has trouble understanding others he admires Jeff's ability to easily connect with people. Although Jeff is annoyed at times by his constant pop culture referencing, he respects Abed's opinions and often sees value in his observations. After a brief falling out happened between them, Jeff agreed to help Abed with his problem of connecting with others as long as Abed helps him try to treat them right. Both value their friendship with each other and Abed even created an elaborate deception one time to maintain it.AnnieEdit
(See main article: "Annie and Abed")
Abed and Annie share a mostly fraternal dynamic and friendship marked by occasional forays into role-playing. Depending on what persona Abed assumes, Annie has been shown to be attracted to him. The two share a kiss during the second paintball tournament when Abed role plays as Han Solo and Annie assumes the part of his Princess Leia. For now, the attraction is mostly played up as a running gag, and whether it's indicative of any deeper feelings between them is unclear. Regardless, the two still enjoy a solid friendship and even have a secret handshake.
When it comes to Abed, Britta tends to take a more protective role towards him and worries about his obsession with pop-culture and inability to distinguish reality from fantasy. On several occasions he has had to reassure her he understands the difference. However, during the study group's third year at Greendale together that changed. He engages in more role playing in his newly created play room called The Dreamatorium and runs up a high tab hiring celebrity impersonators to take part in his activities. He eventually admits to having problems and needing therapy and asks Britta, who had declared psychology as her major, to help him.
Shirley, much like Britta, often treats Abed in a motherly way. Along with Jeff, she too gets annoyed by his childish antics and sometimes questions how close his close relationship to Troy really is. For the most part, Shirley tries to be tolerant of other religious beliefs of the study group including Abed. A running gag on the show sees her trying to convert the other members of the study group to her faith, she suggested that Abed be baptized once while he was in a catatonic state. One time she and Abed did manage to come to an understanding on their different beliefs when he filmed a religious viral video for her church . ("Messianic Myths and Ancient Peoples").
Abed has the least interaction with Pierce in the study group. Pierce has a tendency to mispronounce Abed's name as "Ay-bed" and make racist comments about his heritage. Like the rest of the study group, Abed tolerates Pierce's comments and doesn't take them seriously. Pierce is often jealous of the close relationship Troy and Abed have and expresses disappointment that they won't let him in on their shenanigans. His envy of their friendship is a meta reference to the fact that originally Pierce and Troy were to be best friends in a "Beavis and Butthead" type capacity. In an alternate timeline, Abed calls him out over his jealousy which Pierce accidentally admits to ("Remedial Chaos Theory").Other notable relationshipsEdit
Gubi NadirEdit
Abed's relationship with his father , Gubi Nadir, has been strained since his mother left them both. He at first wanted Abed to take over the family Falafel restaurant business. This changed after he saw a video Abed produced about his own childhood. Gubi was moved so much by it that it made him realize his son had talent. He and Abed came to an understanding and Gubi agreed to pay for his classes, saying that he wanted Abed to do whatever he wanted if it helped people understand him. Gubi later returns for the school's "Family Day" BBQ and brought Abed's cousin Abra with him.Appearances with Abed: "Introduction to Film", "Basic Genealogy"
Agent Robin VohlersEdit
During Abed's second year at Greendale, the Vice president was due to visit the Greendale College prompting a visit from the Secret Service to make sure the campus was safe. Abed immediately noticed thier covert surveillence of the school which brought him to the attention of Agent Vohlers. Despite finding no evidence that he was a threat, she continued to investigate him. Abed suggested she had romantic motives for her actions which she denied. They later had a "date" by watching a Kickpuncher movie in his dorm room, although she was viewing it while outside inside in a surveillence van.Appearances with Abed: "Intro to Political Science"
Pavel is a Polish student at Greendale introduced in Abed's first year at school. Because of their shared Polish heritage (they often speak to each other in their native tongue) and the fact that they used to live next to each other in the school dormitory, they have become good friends. He has a laidback and easy-going disposition and is very accepting of Abed's quirks. He assisted Troy and Abed in the creation of their first blanket fort, Fluffy Town. Pavel, along with Garrett, is also seen assisting Abed as a member of his film crew in various episodes.Appearances with Abed: "Social Psychology", "Conspiracy Theories and Interior Design", "Intro to Political Science"
Toby WeeksEdit
Toby is an "Inspector Spacetime" fan who became fast friends with Abed after discussing their mutual love of the show online. He meets up with Abed at "InspecTicon" a convention for "Inspector Spacetime" fans, and the two instantly connect. However, he reacts poorly when Abed rejects his offer to join him in Britain to attend the "Demiceninspecticon" convention. Toby traps Abed inside a faux X-7 Dimensionizer hoping to that he will change his mind. When Troy arrives on the scene he easily sees through Toby's lies and realizes Abed needs him. He sends Toby packing and rescues a grateful Abed who tells Troy that he knew he would save him.Apperances with Abed: "Conventions of Space and Time"
Appearances with Abed: "Herstory of Dance "

- "Come with me if you don't want paint on your clothes."— Abed
- " Chaos already dominates enough of our lives; the universe is an endless raging sea of randomness. Our job isn't to fight it, but to weather it, together, on the raft of life. A raft held together by those few, rare beautiful things we know to be predictable."— Abed
- "Ropes? Vines. Vines? Let him finish!"— Britta
- "Us. It won't matter what happens to us as long as we stay honest and accepting of each other's flaws and virtues: Annie will always be driven, Shirley will always be giving, Pierce will never apologize, Britta's sort of a wild card from my perspective, and Jeff will forever remain a conniving son of a bitch."— Abed
"Documentary Filmmaking: Redux"
- "What happened to just being a fly on the wall?"— Dean Pelton
- "Some flies are too awesome for the wall."— Abed
- "Britta, zoom in there. There's a clock on the wall."— Abed
- "Eight plus two, times five..."— Abed
- "Ten after eight."— Troy
- "I'm gifted in other ways."— Abed
- Abed's favorite movie is a tie between Ghostbusters, An American Werewolf in London, Back to The Future, Blade Runner, Stand By Me, Stripes, Star Wars IV through VI, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Jaws, Raising Arizona, Jurassic Park, Seven, The Matrix, Goonies, Breakfast Club, Real Genius, Better Off Dead, The Fog of War, and Pulp Fiction. ("[[1]]")
- Abed often does movie spoofs, though he prefers the term homage.
- Abed has trumped two professors' research thesis: He was the exception to Ian Duncan's Duncan Principle, and he disproved Professor Sheffield's analysis of the TV show "Who's the Boss?". Though in reference to the Duncan Principle, Ian Duncan thinks Abed is the exception, but the Duncan Principle is still in effect - it's just that the scientists fell for it before Abed (the test subject) did.
- In the Community College Chronicles, Abed is played by Alan Bruder.
- His age has never been directly stated. It is suggested that he is at least 21, since he was seemingly able to enter The Ballroom and buy drinks for himself during Troy's birthday party with no trouble. This would place him somewhere in between Troy and Britta.
- In the episode "Applied Anthropology and Culinary Arts" Abed mentions that he delivered a baby in the back of a car. In the episode "The Psychology of Letting Go" several scenes show Abed caring for a pregnant woman, fighting with her boyfriend, and finally delivering it in the back of a car.
- Abed is knowing of driving in the series and is shown through out the running.Jeff asks Abed to park his car for him in Spanish 101 , Also in Pillow and Blankets Part 2 the narrartor points out that Abed does not pay is parking fine, which it self indicating Abed drives.

Spider Jam static noise
Like (0)
Hello. I bought my Line 6 spider jam about 1.5 years ago and hardly used it. I am starting to get back into now and find that when I turn the unit on there is a high amount of static noise coming from the amp with no guitar sounds being amplified. I tried turning down the mic input to below -5 and it made the static go down a little bit but still no guitar sound is coming through. I don't think that I purchased the extended warranty from Guitar Center but like I said the amp was used very little and was definitely not dropped or banged around at all.
Please advise if I can resolve this issue through Line 6 directly without paying extra money on top of the price that I already paid for the amp.
I have created a support ticket for you regarding this situation. A support ticket allows you to directly correspond with a Line 6 Support Representative. An email will be sent to you from Line 6 containing a link if a Line 6 support representative determines that a ticket is necessary to troubleshoot your issue. Please follow the link in the email to view your open ticket to work one on one with Line 6 Support.
Hello- I have the same problem out of nowhere. Bought the amp a year ago. Used about 30 times. Last use it worked great and turned off. Week later I turned it on and static noise when nothing is plugged in and tried different outlets (but it worked fine the whole year in the same spot(plug) . Tried the factory reset I saw other posts <hold A and turn on> . Can you assist me please so I can play again? Thank you- Rob
Make sure your MIC Level Knob is all the way down. Its the shinney knob on the far left of the amp.
Stay in the mix and in the know.

Couldn't gun software be hacked? Perhaps, but the risk can be reduced by open-sourcing code, requiring software patch downloads, and notifying gun makers or law enforcement if software is disabled. Open-sourcing code is not foolproof, but it will build a community of lawful gun owners and code writers who value safety and Second Amendment rights. Enabling two-way communication between guns and their original makers will help guns to be tracked beyond the initial sale, putting greater long-term responsibility on gun makers.
Developing gun software and hardware adaptations could be hastened through a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency-style program. This Defense Department agency tries to solve difficult warfare challenges with cutting-edge ideas. It gave us GPS, among other things. In the private sector, rewards can be offered for specific technological achievements, such as what the X Prize Foundation has been doing. Gun makers, gun retailers, even the National Rifle Association could underwrite a similar prize.
Gun software could be phased in, starting with the most lethal assault rifles. Today's guns are componentized, creating possibilities for a vibrant aftermarket, with add-ons tested and certified by a consortium of gun makers or responsible gun owners.
Technology cannot end depravity or violence, but it can limit the evil a person can inflict on others. After this latest heart-wrenching massacre, enacting new laws may help us feel like we have done something. But smarter technology may actually do a lot more.

Now's the time to head to the farmers' market to find just-picked fresh shelling peas. Peas thrive in the cooler weather of late spring and early summer and they're a good source of fiber, and with vitamins A and K they can help keep your eyes and bones healthy. Keep in mind that unlike their frozen counterparts, fresh peas take a little work. You do need to shell them, after all. But it's worth it! Especially when you build a special salad around them. Here we leave the peas raw so that their bright grassy green flavor can play with delicate red leaf lettuce, beautiful frisée and the irresistible savory, oniony flavor of fried shallots. The fried shallots give this salad out-of-this-world flavor. And compared with store-bought fried onions they have half the calories and a fraction of the saturated fat and sodium. Toss the...

As a food lover and food editor of EatingWell Magazine, it's probably no surprise that I'm not a big fan of any diet where you have to give up a bunch of different foods. No bread or pasta? Forget it. Cabbage soup for two meals a day? No way. That's why I'm a big believer in the weight-loss and maintenance approach that EatingWell has taken both in the magazine and in our diet books, including EatingWell 500-Calorie Dinners, which I co-authored with Nicci Micco. The idea is that you can eat anything you want. That includes dessert or a glass of wine with dinner. One of the secrets to losing weight on this diet?
