Muscles, onions, and locomotives. Huell Howser knows no bounds.
Monday - July 26, 7:30pm: Vandenberg - It began back in 1941 when it was known as Camp Cooke and served as a U.S. Army training facility for tanks and infantry troops. With the advent of the missile age in the 1950s, the land was transferred to the U.S Air Force for use as a missile training base. The first missile was launched from this facility in 1958 and since then almost 2,000 missiles and space boosters have followed suit.
Located on our state's central coast near the town of Lompoc, Vandenberg AFB is not only the U.S. Air Force's third largest installation, but an important part of our state's and nation's space history.
In this episode of "California's Gold," host Huell Howser visits Vandenberg for a first-hand look at this huge base which covers over 98,000 acres and is literally filled with reminders and remnants of our space heritage.
Tuesday - August 3, 7:30pm: Tallyrand - Huell visits a California institution and digs into some very tasty food at the Tallyrand. This popular eatery got its start in 1959 when Al and Delores Thomas, with $5,000 in hand, opened a small coffee shop on Olive Avenue in Burbank. Last year marked their 50th anniversary and even local weathermen were compelled to salute this quality diner.
Wednesday - August 4, 7:30pm: Muscle Beach - It was one of the most famous addresses in the United States from 1934 to1959. It's not a house but a small plot of sand in Santa Monica, California.Muscle Beach started as a WPA project in 1934 and helped spawn the modernfitness movement that lives on today.
The original Muscle Beach was a plot of sand just south of Santa Monica Pier.In the beginning it wasn't about muscles, it was about fitness and fun. Men andwomen did somersaults and handstands, built human towers and threw each otheraround. Huell and Luis go back to the original plot of sand to visit with someof the men and women who made Muscle Beach their playground during its heyday. People aren't the only ones who care about muscles. Even cartoons stop by Muscle Beach to work on their physique.
Thursday - August 5, 7:30pm: Gills Onions - Huell visits the family run Gills Onions, which is not only the largest onion processing plant in California but its also the greenest. Each day they convert over 150 tons of onion peel and juice waste to power fuel cells on site that provide enough power to run the lights and refrigeration. It's not every day that one bulb powers another.
Friday - August 6, 7:30pm: Griffith Park Live Steamers - Huell goes to Griffith Park to enjoy a day of riding the rails with the Los Angeles Live Steamers. Founded in 1956 by train enthusiasts for the purpose of educating people in railroad history, the club operates 71/2" gauge model trains for the general public from 11:00 am - 3:00 pm every Sunday.

Porn stars are getting slammed these days -- not by the economy, but by the Internet ... which means this could be the perfect time for Briana Banks to bust into a new line of work.
Check out TMZ on TV -- click here to see your local listings!
Um, no, Ms. Banks. You've just got old and the fact that being cute and takin' it up The P0op Shoot is common place now. Don't be mad that Jenna was the lucky one that was able to market herself and make that empire (that I guarantee you is seeing a shadow of the same returns now) while the gettin' was good. Now excuse me, I need to go download a pirated copy of Brianna Loves Jenna off the 'net (not really)....
What a dumbass. She looks horrible, what the hell happened to her?? She can't even speak. And I love how she says she's not a "mistress" when she totally escorts all the time. Keep spreading your legs Briana, there's no other job for you.
Wow she is really messed up in this video! Maybe it's cause she has been getting slammed @ derekandrewhay.com they are even printing her real name and the real names of other porn stars....crazy times!
hey Rodney Peterson... its sad that you think just str8 up robbing a persons work is ok!!! but since you sit in front of your computer and you have very little chance of getting busted you steel what you should be paying for!!! i think your a coward!!! at least have the balls to go to a store and put the dvd down your pants... but wait that would take balls.. just wait until the only thing left to get is you and your buddies jerking each other off...
and do know this the new way for porn companies to make money is taking people like you to court!! oh yes the new biz is dragging your ass in and letting everyone know you downloaded tranny walker #5 :) see you in court!!!
I used to think she was so hot. what the hell happened to her? No one is buying your videos because you look horrible now. time to retire
The web made the Porn industry. 12% of all web sites are porn.25% of all web searches are for porn. @ $12.1 Billion, they gross more than the revenues of the NBA, NFL, MLB combined!
She's correct that the industry has been hurt by web pirating, the problem is difficult to deal with because many porn pirating sites are on servers in foreign countries that's in no threat of litigation. AVN's claim that the U.S. porn industry makes more money than all sports leagues has been disproved in media investigations. Why does TMZ even give attention to a porn whore?
Gawd, Brianna Banks is so uglyyyyy. Any guy who jerks off to her work needs to take off the beer goggles.

who could be classified as the antagonist in this novel?
1 Answer | add yours
An antagonist is a character in a story who works against the main character. In "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" the antagonist would have to be Merlin. Hank undermines Merlin's desire to keep the kingdom under the "old ways" and customs. His magic fails until the very end when he succeeds in putting Hank to sleep for 1300 years.

Pope: Urbi et Orbi Message, Easter, 2013 [Full text]
(Vatican Radio)
Below we publish the full text of the Holy Father's Urbi et Orbi Message, Easter 2013.
Dear brothers and sisters in Rome and throughout the world, Happy Easter!
What a joy it is for me to announce this message: Christ is risen! I would like it to go out to every house and every family, especially where the suffering is greatest, in hospitals, in prisons …
Most of all, I would like it to enter every heart, for it is there that God wants to sow this Good News: Jesus is risen, there is hope for you, you are no longer in the power of sin, of evil! Love has triumphed, mercy has been victorious!
We too, like the women who were Jesus' disciples, who went to the tomb and found it empty, may wonder what this event means (cf.
24:4). What does it mean that Jesus is risen? It means that the love of God is stronger than evil and death itself; it means that the love of God can transform our lives and let those desert places in our hearts bloom.
This same love for which the Son of God became man and followed the way of humility and self-giving to the very end, down to hell - to the abyss of separation from God - this same merciful love has flooded with light the dead body of Jesus and transfigured it, has made it pass into eternal life. Jesus did not return to his former life, to earthly life, but entered into the glorious life of God and he entered there with our humanity, opening us to a future of hope.
This is what Easter is: it is the exodus, the passage of human beings from slavery to sin and evil to the freedom of love and goodness. Because God is life, life alone, and his glory is the living man (cf. Irenaeus,
Adversus Haereses
, 4,20,5-7).
Dear brothers and sisters, Christ died and rose once for all, and for everyone, but the power of the Resurrection, this passover from slavery to evil to the freedom of goodness, must be accomplished in every age, in our concrete existence, in our everyday lives. How many deserts, even today, do human beings need to cross! Above all, the desert within, when we have no love for God or neighbour, when we fail to realize that we are guardians of all that the Creator has given us and continues to give us. God's mercy can make even the driest land become a garden, can restore life to dry bones (cf.
So this is the invitation which I address to everyone: Let us accept the grace of Christ's Resurrection! Let us be renewed by God's mercy, let us be loved by Jesus, let us enable the power of his love to transform our lives too; and let us become agents of this mercy, channels through which God can water the earth, protect all creation and make justice and peace flourish.
And so we ask the risen Jesus, who turns death into life, to change hatred into love, vengeance into forgiveness, war into peace. Yes, Christ is our peace, and through him we implore peace for all the world.
Peace for the Middle East, and particularly between Israelis and Palestinians, who struggle to find the road of agreement, that they may willingly and courageously resume negotiations to end a conflict that has lasted all too long. Peace in Iraq, that every act of violence may end, and above all for dear Syria, for its people torn by conflict and for the many refugees who await help and comfort. How much blood has been shed! And how much suffering must there still be before a political solution to the crisis will be found?
Peace for Africa, still the scene of violent conflicts. In Mali, may unity and stability be restored; in Nigeria, where attacks sadly continue, gravely threatening the lives of many innocent people, and where great numbers of persons, including children, are held hostage by terrorist groups. Peace in the East of the Democratic Republic of Congo, and in the Central African Republic, where many have been forced to leave their homes and continue to live in fear.
Peace in Asia, above all on the Korean peninsula: may disagreements be overcome and a renewed spirit of reconciliation grow.
Peace in the whole world, still divided by greed looking for easy gain, wounded by the selfishness which threatens human life and the family, selfishness that continues in human trafficking, the most extensive form of slavery in this twenty-first century. Peace to the whole world, torn apart by violence linked to drug trafficking and by the iniquitous exploitation of natural resources! Peace to this our Earth! Made the risen Jesus bring comfort to the victims of natural disasters and make us responsible guardians of creation.
Dear brothers and sisters, to all of you who are listening to me, from Rome and from all over of the world, I address the invitation of the Psalm: "Give thanks to the Lord for he is good; for his steadfast love endures for ever. Let Israel say: 'His steadfast love endures for ever'" (
Dear brothers and sisters, who have come from all over the world to this Square, the heart of Christianity, and all of you joining us via communications media, I renew my wishes for a Happy Easter! Bring to your families and your nations the message of joy of hope and peace that each year is powerfully renewed on this day. May the Risen Lord, who defeated sin and death, support us all especially the weakest and those most in need. Thank you for your presence and the witness of your faith. A thought and a particular thanks for the gift of these beautiful flowers from the Netherlands. I affectionately repeat to all of you: May the Risen Christ guide you and all humanity on the paths of justice, love and peace!

INDIANAPOLIS _ There is only one player in Super Bowl XLVI who is trying to win a ring for the second year in a row. Center Nick McDonald got one last year with the Packers. Now, he is hoping for a second with the Patriots.
In some respects this one would be more rewarding, McDonald said.
``I'm contributing more to the team this year,'' he pointed out. While he was with the Packers all of last season, he was never active in a game. This season, he was waived by Green Bay in early September and signed to New England's practice squad a few days later.
McDonald is viewed as a prospect who needs to gain experience and strength. He played at Grand Valley State. He is 6-feet-4 and 316-pounds.
``I work on my strength in the weight room every day, learning from the older guys. I try to pay attention even more and do a little extra,'' he said.
When the Patriots went through three starting centers, Dan Koppen, Dan Connolly and Ryan Wendell, McDonald became a starter in week 13. With Connolly's return, he has done gone to being a back-up. He spoke about how he feels he is still improving.
``A lot has to do with the coaching staff. The coaches are unbelievable. Coach (Dante) Scarnecchia is one of the best coaches I've ever played for. They spend so much time with you,'' McDonald said. ``Me being a younger guy I get extra time. I'm in there before meetings even start. When a coach is that passionate it makes you want to play even harder.''
``I love it here. It's the New England Patriots. There's so much history, such a special place,'' he said.
McDonald did not bring the ring he received with him from the Packers to Indianapolis.
``It's stashed away in a lock box,'' he said. ``I've only worn it to special occasions, twice to weddings I went to.''
McDonald's title with the Packers has not gone unnoticed with his teammates.
``Brian Waters calls me the lucky charm,'' he said.

text: Who she is: An 18-year-old literary prodigy and a recent winner of a prestigious $10,000 Scholastic Art and Writing Award (previous winners: Joyce Carol Oates, Sylvia Plath, Truman Capote). Her background: Ford's family is known for its political prominence throughout Tennessee; her uncle Harold Ford Sr. was an 11-term congressman from the state. But in 2005, her father, John, then a state senator, was arrested (and later convicted) for taking $55,000 in bribes. Two years later, Ford's mother was imprisoned for drunk driving. After moving in with her aunt in South Carolina, Ford attended two different high schools before being accepted to Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities, a rigorous residential program for emerging artists. Breakthrough idea: Giving voice to the pain of her family falling apart. "When I first started writing, I thought conflict and drama would make the work good," she says. "But I realized that doesn't create art. Art comes from discovery. I had to ask questions of my situation and feelings. That changed my writing and my life." What's next: Speaking to teens whose parents have been imprisoned. Her work: "Maybe all you need to know is that this night will pass. Just like the rest of them. ... You won't always be this restless, this lonely." —From Ford's essay "To a Restless Little Brother Calling for Mama in his Sleep" Breakthrough advice: "When you find something you love to do, love it, love it, love it. Good things come from bravely chasing what you love—don't let anybody steer you off course." —Crystal G. Martin |

Pre-order of the digital album "Between The Lines" on iTunes here:
More about Wayne on:
A true renaissance. The only way to describe Wayne Paul's return. Lost in alcohol and drugs, drifting from incarceration bids to detox clinics, the British artist has been to hell and back. Fortunately he IS back. Back with a new health, more inspiration than ever and a beautiful album entitled « Between The Lines ». The voice that took label Big Dada to new heights in the 90s is intact. Floating. Subtle. Intense.
Wayne Paul, British by way of Jamaica, grew up fascinated by Gregory Isaacs, Dennis Brown, John Holt, Marvin Gaye, Motown, or the movement linked to the mysterious Jah Shaka – prince of heavy bass, sirens and echo effects. It's no wonder he's so comfortable expressing his feelings over dub, electro, jazz and hiphop created by Swiss master Christophe Calpini (Mobile in Motion, Stade, Alain Bashung, Dog Almond). It's bouncy, it's colorful, it's warm.

Would not advice this hotel unless you can get it under 50/night. Not worth more and better off staying in Super 8 or some other economy hotel.
February 3, 2014
Business Traveler
Very outdated room and not even close to star level. Examples would be...Old worn furniture, old mattress, old carpet with couple burn marks, old tube TV's. I'm easy to please and not even complaining as it was a place to sleep. Out of all the times I have used Priceline, this has been the only room not up to par with the star level.

The Departed:
A Boston Story
Jack Nicholson at his very best, sardonic, sarcastic, witty & above all a force to be reckoned with! Combine him with some the best young actors, in Irish South Boston then add in some Mafioso Italians, some sinister Chinese hoodlums & a batch of crooked cops, mix well & you have a 2 hr. 34 min. thriller that is worth seeing at least once!
Frank Costello, Jack's character is the quintessential Irish South Boston gangster with all of the power, sentiment of the Irish & ruthlessness you would expect such guy to have. Violent is a description that comes to mind but then again it is about a violent subject, in a violent time & deals with the reality of violence as it is today in South Boston's narrow streets, alleys & bars.
Jack Nicholson, Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Mark Wahlberg, Martin Sheen & a supporting cast that is excellent make this a great movie! Do not miss this one!

PA-63 Aftermarket Grips????
Hey Everybody,
I haven't posted in a couple of years, but here I am again. Like my mom used to say, "you just keep turning up like a bad penny." Anyway life's been pretty good, but I'm sure we'll get around to all that eventually. I do have a question for you all. I usually stick to J Frame class guns for smaller carry/backup. But lately I've been finding myself drawn to the smaller 380's. In particular I've been looking at the PA-63's. I'm a lefty and would need to replace the grips to get rid of the huge speed-bump/thumbrest on the stock grips. But the price can't be beat and I've heard that they're easy to tweak if need be. I'll definately need to replace the grips and making a new set is not something I would do myself. Are aftermarket grips readily available? Any thoughts? Thanks. Your buddy, mo jenkins |
Re: PA-63 Aftermarket Grips????
I am waiting on a set from Dennis . Check out his website :http://dnmars.43i.net/
I have also went with Wolffe springs in my PA 63 which you might want to consider. A.J. |
Re: PA-63 Aftermarket Grips????
Thanks A.J.,
The guy makes some nice grips! Of coarse, now I'm more confused than before. Do I shell out more money for grips and I have to remember that I'll still end up with a safety that works the WRONG way.....HMMM....Maybe I should buy one and only use it to train with my weak hand....then I wouldn't have to buy any grips.....or maybe I'm just trying to rationalize buying another gun....hmmmm... |
Re: PA-63 Aftermarket Grips????
$24 for aftermarket grips with no thumbrest from Makarov.com.
Wooden ones from this site, just look for the FEG PA-63. http://dnmars.43i.net/?content=FEG |
Re: PA-63 Aftermarket Grips????
Re: PA-63 Aftermarket Grips????
I need help in finding someone who sells wooden aftermarket grips for a PA 63 Hung. Police pistol. If someone knows of where they can be purchased could you either tell me where to look or give me a contact so I can find what I am looking for. I have spent hours looking with most leads discontinued. E-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com Thanks.
Re: PA-63 Aftermarket Grips????
Did you try a Google search for PA-63 wood pistol grips? When I tried it, it turned up a man named Marschal who makes wood grips for a wide variety of pistols, including the FEG PA-63. His website has a "last update" date of 2/13/12, so I assume he is active. The grips look pretty expensive though - if I read it right, the PA-63 grips started at $67, plus shipping. HTH!
Re: PA-63 Aftermarket Grips????
mo jenkins:
If you have not fired this gun you need to know it likes to crawl in your hand such that the you get hammer bite in recoil. I have relatively smaller hands and it gives me hammer bite. What I did with mine is put grip tape (skate board anti-slip board tape) on the back of the frame and make sure I grip the gun low. I don't generally suffer this problem with other guns except for my High Power clone (Charles daly) which I solved by machining the back part of the hammer off. What a difference that made. I can now grip that gun high and not suffer hammer bite. Maybe something like this is a better solution for the PA-63 or the gun it was cloned after, the Walther PPK (??). LDBennett |

Basically, with Google charging for Urchin 7, basically forcing people to use their Google Analytics, I am interested in becoming a "client" of someone who has Urchin. They allow a company to install on 1,000 domains. I would be willing to pay of course to become your client to be able to let me use Urchin on my site. I assume this fits their terms of service. Heck if you had just a handful of friends to share the cost with, that would get real cheap fast.

Puyallup Woman Faces Charges for Throwing Infant
Anna A. Murphy has plead not guilty to purposefully throwing her 3 month old infant on the floor. She told police she was having "her first exorcism" and was in "a house of mirrors with Hitler," court documents show.
Anna A. Murphy, 35, pleaded not guilty Monday to second-degree assault.
On June 16, 2013, Pierce County Sheriff's deputies responded to her home on 95th Avenue East, after Murphy called 911 and said she raped her 3 month-old infant, court documents state. The child's father told police she intentionally dropped the child when he returned home and she was intentionally trying to kill her.
The child was transported to Mary Bridge Hospital, where she was found to have sustained a bruised tongue and torn frenulum. The extent of the child's injuries are still unknown.
The child's father told police that Murphy had threatened suicide a month prior. Murphy told police she was "having her first exorcism" and she threw the child down because she was traveling through another dimension and was actually trying to save her. She made a variety of statements, including that she was being raped and was in a "house of mirrors with Hitler."
She was eventually cleared and transported to jail. Murphy is jailed in lieu of $150,000 bail and is ordered to stay away from her child and Puyallup home.

2006 Hemi 5.7 Oil Capacity
- Posted: 11-11-2006, 04:26 PM
Post #1
...so I get back from having an oil change done at my local dealer where I bought the truck almost a year ago. Usually, I don't look at the statement in the oil change section because you get a year free oil change. Well, my year is up and I happen to notice that when I got it back home today, the statement had a charge of $13 under oil and another charge of $5.20 or so under another oil. I called and asked them about the differences and they said that the $13 was for a gallon of oil and the other $5.20 was for an additional 2 quarts. Consequently, they noticed that I was over charged for the gallon price and that they would give me a free oil change. I told them that I noticed that the owner's manual for the truck says that the 5.7L Hemi takes 7 quarts of oil and that the statement said that I was only charged for 6....4 quarts for the gallon plus the 2 additional that I paid for per quart. He said that he was pretty sure that the 5.7L Hemi was a 6 quart system and that he would check. I haven't heard back from them yet, but I was wondering if there was some TSB where the manual is wrong or what. He told me to check the oil in the truck and make sure it was full and it reads full on the dipstick. So, yes it's full, but did it take 6 quarts like he said or 7 quarts like the manual says?

If it is full, it is full. Maybe they just don't charge that extra quart to keep the price low, or maybe they put in 6.8 exactly to get to full and don't charge for the .8. On mine 7 quarts is a tad bit over the line. I would not worry about it especially if it is saving you a couple bucks, but yes the capacity is supposed to be 7 quarts.

So you paid $18.20 plus probably tax on top of that for an oil change. For me, I do my own, and it costs me closer to like $25.00 for me to do it myself. The oil, Castrol GTX 5W-30 is just less than $3.00 a qt. at Wal-Mart, something like $2.79. The Fram filter PH-16 is around $5.00 I think. So roughly $25-26 with tax. It would be cheaper for me to have it done, but I have always preferred doing it myself. I do not let anyone touch my vehicles unless it is something I just absolutely can't do myself. Funny thing......this last oil change took nearly 7.5 qts to fill it. The only difference is I normally run my truck's engine just prior to changing it, and I change it warm. This time I did not. It had sat for 3 days without being started at all. I crawled under it, dropped the oil and filter, replaced filter, and put 7 qts. in it. I then started it as always to fill the filter and check for leaks, then shut the engine off and let it sit for a minute to take a reading. It was half-way in the "Operating Range". But certainly not at the top end. The only two things that could have caused this that comes to mind are: It sitting for three days without being cranked, all of the oil was in the pan and no residual was left in the engine. This doesn't make sense because they only hold 7 qts. Now what makes more sense is one of the bottles I purchased could have been low and I just didn't notice it. So I went and bought the 8th qt. and put about half of it in. Now it is ever so slightly above full which is fine.

The Two-Way
New Year? How About A New Calendar?
About 430 years ago, Pope Gregory XIII gave the West a calendar which divided 365 days into what was to be called a "year." With 12 months and 7 days bundled into so-called "weeks," the Gregorian calendar was hailed as a marvel of medieval accuracy. We use it today, despite its occasional messiness — drifting days, leap years and 28-day months.
But as Weekend Edition Sunday notes, some researchers at Johns Hopkins University have devised a different way to count our days — with a leap week every few years to keep the calendar on track. Hats off to USA Today for explaining it all in this nifty graphic.
And holidays like Christmas and New Year's Day would always fall on a Sunday. It seems neat and streamlined for our modern age — except maybe to those of us who work on Sundays.

Seems like the time might be ripe for a new Alan Jay Lerner biography. But these three theatre veterans don't know each other because of Alan Jay Lerner. They know each other because of Annie. Actually, that's not true, either. Charnin knew both Strouse and Meehan before the idea for turning Harold Gray's comic strip "Little Orphan Annie" into a musical was hatched. He got to know Meehan after he read a piece by Meehan in The New Yorker and optioned it for a 1970 television project starring Anne Bancroft, called "Annie, The Women in the Life of a Man." As for Strouse, he's known him "since Year 3."
All three live in the New York area — Strouse and Meehan in Manhattan, and Charnin in Mamaroneck. Does Annie cause them to see each other often?
"I think we're on the phone," said Strouse.

"I was away in Seattle for about seven years and only came back to New York last July," explained Charnin.
"One of the mysterious moves in the theatre," commented Strouse. "One I've never understood."
"He thought another coast might be a good idea," suggested Meehan.
"Well, I was in the middle of a divorce," explained Charnin. "The theatre community there was good for a while. But then you get the itch to come back. The reason I went out there specifically was to do the 30th-anniversary production of Annie, which opened in Seattle. It opened at the Paramount and it went out on the road for a few years. But we stayed. I didn't like it, however, in the final analysis. I'm a East Coast person."
"I knew it before you knew it," said Strouse, who's never strayed from the Upper West Side where he was raised.

I am pretty much an offensive side of the football kind of guy. So this is going to be new territory for me. So take it easy on me if I forget someone or I botch the whole thing altogether.
With the announcement of the 2010 Pro Bowlers yesterday, two Texans linebackers made the cut. DeMeco Ryans and rookie Brian Cushing. It got me to wondering where Houston lines up to the rest of the league in their linebacking corps. I did some quick research (and know I left out some really talented groups; like I said, Defense isn't my forte) and came up with some quick numbers of some of the top groups of linebackers in the league. I'm not really a stat guy. I never have been. So these are just some quick numbers to briefly compare:
(These are combined stats through 15 games for the 2009 season)
Team | LB Core | Solo Tackles | Sacks | Forced Fumbles | Interceptions |
Steelers | Woodley, Harrison & Farrior | 168 | 24.5 | 7 | 1 |
Bears | Urlacher*, Briggs & Hillenmeyer | 146 | 5 | 4 | 2 |
Jets | Scott, Pace & Harris | 190 | 13.5 | 5 | 2 |
Cowboys | Ware, James & Brooking | 195 | 15 | 6 | 0 |
Ravens | Lewis, Suggs & Gooden | 167 | 6.5 | 3 | 0 |
Chargers | Merriman, Cooper & Phillips | 144 | 11 | 10 | 0 |
Texans | Ryans, Diles & Cushing | 210 | 5 | 4 | 4 |
(* The Bears numbers are deflated due to Brian Urlacher being out for the entire season. But he still needs to be in the debate.)
As previously stated, I am sure I left some others out, but this is what I could think of as far as dominating LB corps go.
Some big names in that group. Obviously Pittsburgh and Dallas get after the quarterback much more efficiently than Houston (but who doesn't?). As long as Ray Lewis is still in the game, Baltimore is always going to be under consideration in this topic. I don't like the guy personally, but that doesn't change the fact that he is a future Hall of Famer. Bart Scott jumping to New York certainly helped shore up a LB corps that was already pretty solid. With the Steelers' shaky secondary this season, their trio of LBs' numbers went down, with their Safeties and Corners compiling huge tackle totals. San Diego has about as solid of a group as you're going to find in the league, even if many question Merriman after being busted for roids in the past.
But how does the combo of DeMeco Ryans, Zac Diles & Brian Cushing really stack up to these juggernauts? You have to take into consderation that they are young. Ryans is 25, Diles 24 and Cushing is only 22. The thought that they haven't even hit their prime yet is staggering. The fact that Diles, who is certainly the most underrated of the trio, is a 7th round pick is spectacular. Ryans, who just got his 2nd Pro Bowl nod, is as solid as any LB in the game. And I am sure this scares the hell out of Rick Smith. Seriously, pay the man, Rick. A Defensive Rookie of The Year in 2006, he led the NFL in tackles with 156. The rookie production of Brian Cushing is stunningly similar to Ryans' rookie campaign, and Cushing is the current favorite to follow Ryans as a Defensive Rookie of The Year in 2009. He is the lone rookie representative for the AFC in the 2010 Pro Bowl.
So, in my opinion, they may not be the best trio of linebackers in the NFL yet. But they are young. And they haven't come close to peaking yet. Let's hope the team finds a way to keep them together for the majority of their careers.

Deluxe Home Screens & Backgrounds
Amazing fun and style for your iPhone,iPad and iPod Touch.
Now fully compatible with the iPhone 5!!
The application itself is free, each background costs a little money. Read here why!
Deluxe Backgrounds features a wide selection of high quality artwork and photography. Thoroughly selected and perfectly fit to the iPhone and iPod Touch screen.
What's different about 'Deluxe Backgrounds'?
Why do we charge something per downloaded background?
Our conviction: We don't grab our wallpapers off the web and give them away for free. Because behind every photo or artwork is an artist who's done it. We believe that artists should get paid for the great work they are doing. Our wallpapers are 100% licensed from their artists directly or through our licensing partners. And they get paid a fair share of the revenues. That's why we charge a small fee for each wallpaper you download.
The application itself is free, so you can browse all backgrounds and categories.
The preview images in the app are slightly reduced in quality to allow faster browsing. It might still take some time for categories to load. We recommend using a Wifi connection for browsing the backgrounds. Browsing while only connected to the mobile network, not Wifi, does also work, but might be somewhat slower.
New content will be added regularly, so check back for updates!
For Deluxe Home Screens & Backgrounds you need iOS 4 or 5 on an iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4/4S, iPad, iPod Touch 3rd generation 32 and 64 GB (late 2009) or iPod Touch with Retina Display!
iPhone 3G or other iPod Touch models unfortunately do not support this feature!
Thanks for supporting our artists and us!
If you're having trouble with the app email us!

To the little red car with a Florida license, who cut me off on Bemiss the other night: I hope you were rushing to an emergency because you could have easily caused me to wreck with my young child in the car. And guess what? We still got to the next red light at the same time. No excuse for crazy driving. Do want you want on your own time but don't endanger me and my child.
Isn't it interesting that those who were so opposed to government help for the needy, are the first in line for storm aid? When the shoe is on the other foot; things look different.
The NOAA and the Weather Channel are not the same. Please! Contact your representatives and encourage them to give Obama and the Dems everything they want. The sooner the better. The best thing the Republicans could do right now is to give Obama everything that he wants. Obama's course will end up with the United States going bankrupt, because there isn't enough money on the planet, much less the U.S., to pay for all the goodies the Democrats want to bestow on their favored constituents.
To the ranter that said "his 60,000 a year business he owns has been on the upswing since Obama been in office": All I can say is your business is either in gun sales or "prepper supplies." Ha, what a joke!
I would appreciate the traffic division to come check out the intersection of Highway 133 and the new James Road in the mornings! Traffic is horrendous at that intersection and it is virtually impossible to make a left turn to go towards the prison/Val Tech, much less getting into the traffic making a right from James Road!
Want to see some hard-working employees? Ride through Ray City and watch the men working on the new sidewalks. I have never passed when they were not hard at work.
If the people who are worrying about all the fat people and their Lexuses taking food from the food bank, maybe if they stopped and asked the people, these people were delivering the meals to the poor and the hungry. Next time take some initiative and ask instead of judging.
I appreciate all that teachers do. But I agree with the ranter. Sure would help if VHS teachers would post grades on the Parent Portal on a more timely basis.
I believe all of us customers are tired of standing at an empty cash register in major stores. I know with the season here it's time to put more people in needed places. How about you, Walmart?

Get your facts correct. The UK does not require a lie detector test to qualify for welfare. Lie detectors were trialed by former Work and Pensions Secretary John Hutton four years ago with 24 councils across Britain. Then, two years ago, the government abandoned the detector tests after the trials suggested they were unreliable.

Using guides instead of making up your own builds/adapting to the enemy team comp... Yay for common sense!
I honestly like Solomid better. Their guides are approved by 'higher up' players, whereas Mobafire just has a lot of guides by not-well-known people. However, you should NEVER follow the Item builds to every single item. Every game is different. I usually don't follow the item builds on websites like LeagueCraft, Mobafire, Solomid, etc. Instead I experiment with my own builds. I only use them for the jungle paths (not that much anymore) Masteries and Runes.
Junior Member
I don't use mobafire. I only use solomid and lolking as a backup! Many of the mobafire builds are very outdated and they are mostly glass cannon... solomid is a good website for good builds however, solomid does have downsides.

They may be heading toward $4 a gallon by this summer, having already topped $3.50.
But perhaps they aren't high enough – if you follow the logic of President Obama's energy policy.
The administration said Sunday that it is weighing the option of helping lower gas prices by releasing supplies from the nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). That oil kitty was set up after the 1973 Oil Shock in case of a national emergency.
But paying $4 at the pump is not really an emergency – based on Mr. Obama's moves to wean Americans off oil.
His budget proposal last month, for instance, would repeal $46.2 billion in subsidies for the fossil fuel industry over the next decade – a move designed to raise oil prices in order to boost investment in renewable energy sources such as solar and wind.
Obama is also reluctant to expand offshore oil drilling. And he's also trying to boost the sales of electric cars – something that won't be easy if gasoline prices go down – as part of a broad government effort to reduce carbon emissions and boost energy security.
Obama's energy secretary, Stephen Chu, advises politicians in Congress not to panic and demand that the president lower prices by selling oil from the SPR.
The last time Americans saw $4 pump prices, in 2008, they did start to change their energy habits.
Taking the long view means the US must recognize that it has to kick the oil habit sooner rather than later.
