This is one of my first flash movies ever. It is short, and pretty bad. Please keep that in mind when voting/reviewing. You can expect to see more from me, but I have no idea how soon that will be, or if I will be any better by then. All I know now, is that I'm going to keep trying until I am satisfied with my animating/coding skills.
Rated 3 / 5 stars June 28, 2011
Considering this is your first flash I find this a rather decent one.
But here are some things you might consider changing.
- Background: Add one, now it feels so empty.
- Explosion: Not nearly the blast of a real creeper!
- Sound: The explosion is rather weak sound-wise as well.
- The ending: the "trolololol" music feels out of place and unnecessary
- Buttons: Play buttons are an animators friend.
Anyways keep working hard on improving!
Ok, I'll consider that. I agree with you about 95%. Thanks.

Thank you. :)

Being as it has been one of the driest years on record for the State of Texas, homeowners' landscapes have suffered. Letting your grass go is not a huge loss, since grass can be re-seeded without a huge cost. However, replacing trees and large shrubs can be very expensive. That is why some landscapers suggest making it a priority to save your trees and not to worry too much about your lawn.

Despite having gained his powers from a creature generally about as popular as a mung bean kebab stall at a cattle farmers' rally, Spider-Man has always been one of the more likable superheroes to make it to the big screen.
The first two films in the franchise managed to achieve the rare feat of combining critical success with box office firepower, with director Sam Raimi successfully keeping the fanboys happy while delivering a Spidey people who had never even seen a copy of the Marvel comic could also identify with. However, third time around critics have responded to Spider-Man 3 with poor to lukewarm reviews.
Aintitcool.com's Moriarty describes the movie as "a Teflon film", complaining that too much emphasis is placed on the central relationship between Spider-Man's alter-ego, Peter Parker, and his on-off girlfriend Mary Jane. The Observer's Philip French is even more scathing, delivering his verdict in fewer than 200 words. "The movie's strong suit is the shock'n'awe of its special effects," he writes. "Its weak suit is the attempts at emotional depth. Perhaps it's time for Spidey to close down his website."
Sukhdev Sandhu in the Telegraph is unhappy with the new film's elevated baddie quota. "There are too many villains this time round, too many half-baked back stories, too much moralistic baloney about avoiding revenge from Aunt May."
Chris Hewitt of Empire magazine couldn't agree more. "Multiple villains can be done, of course, as shown in Chris Nolan's Batman Begins," he says. "But where Nolan had his bad guys simply show up, bringing little-to-no back-story, Raimi has always insisted that his villains should have an arc. Great thinking when there's only one - bit of a problem when there's three. And so an otherwise smart and engaging movie becomes bloated..."
But the last word goes to Peter Bradshaw of the Guardian, who damningly compares the film to the later Superman movies. "There's a fair bit of zip," he writes. "And some terrific-looking Manhattan streetscape battle scenes, but no satisfyingly unified story, and [the film is] muddied by the fact that the love interest now knows the hero's secret identity."
So have you seen it yet? Given that the film has just broken the worldwide box office record for an opening weekend, Sony execs may not exactly be quaking in their boots over a few critical kickings, but we're naturally interested in what you think. Post your reviews below and let us know.

Weston's MP, John Penrose, has welcomed Network Rail's announcement last week of plans for a new direct route for rail journeys from the West Country to Heathrow.
John's work with Tourism didn't end there, of course. The sector is still one of the biggest and most important parts of Weston's local economy, so John continues to work closely with tourism firms to drive the seaside town's ongoing regeneration. Updates |

Some folks in the Washington, D.C., area are buzzing about what they though was a UFO atop a flatbed truck on the Capitol Beltway.
Turns out the disc-shaped object was just a run-of-the-mill military drone.
MyFoxDC reports that what drivers saw—and some photographed—around 11 p.m. Wednesday on Interstate 270, and then later on Interstate 495, was an X-47B Unmanned Combat Air System being transported from Edwards Air Force Base in California to the Naval Air Station Patuxent River in Maryland for testing.
Related video: Recent crash raises questions about drone safety.
During its travels through the D.C. area, local station WTOP reported a flurry of activity on Twitter about the strange-looking object.
This not the first time a drone was mistaken for something alien. Last year, a drone being transported by flatbed to Pax River for practicing aircraft carrier takeoffs and landings was also mistaken for a UFO, the Daily Caller reported.

Mythical figures team up to defuse threat against children
By Rito P. AsiloPhilippine Daily Inquirer
We lose our child-like sense of wonder during our alternately exhilarating and confounding transition to adulthood. In these amoral times, however, more and more kids succumb to cynicism long before they hit puberty—and, as dramatized in Peter Ramsey's visually succulent animation, "Rise of the Guardians," Santa Claus (voiced by Alec Baldwin) and his colleagues, the Easter Bunny (Hugh Jackman), Sandman, and the Tooth Fairy (Isla Fisher), are deeply concerned!
As Guardians, it's their duty to bring joy to children, whose hopes and dreams they're tasked to protect. But, the emerging world order is tipping the balance of power in favor of Pitch Black (Jude Law)—the bogeyman responsible for all sinister creatures that go bump in the night. He turns children's dreams into nightmares, and his power increases as more kids lose their sense of wonder—including their devotion to Santa and his friends!
Enter Jack Frost (Chris Pine). The Guardians' naughty new recruit is gifted with the ability to consolidate their symbiotic powers—but, he is distracted by fuzzy memories of his tragic human past, as well as self-esteem issues that need to be addressed before Pitch realizes the full extent of his sinister powers on Easter Sunday, which is merely three days away!
Dynamic exchanges
The film is veritable eye-candy that moves briskly from one section of its exposition to the next as it expands, then wraps up its straightforward tale. For the most part, its storytelling style is geared for young audiences, who will enjoy its colorful protagonists' dynamic but "wholesome" exchanges.
Law and Pine make the most of their two-dimensional characters, but their colleagues—and the movie itself—could have benefitted from more mature (albeit inoffensive) jokes that would be greatly appreciated by older viewers.
The movie's conflict lacks edge and a genuine sense of danger. Imagine what Pixar would have done with a hot-tempered rabbit, swooning fairies, a knife-wielding Santa, impatient elves, obedient Yetis, and a stubborn 18-year-old amnesiac!

What species of humanity are you? Whatever kind you are, you don't worry us. According to hearsay you were willing to lay your hands on small items deposited by my mother to the communal account, close to a bank. I know that since its existence Istanbul has changed others. Some who have gone there wearing worn down shoes have returned in high heels. You continue to brush its streets with your skirt. Mirrors do not show what really happens. Ah, yes, you forget so quickly the dusty streets of the sub-prefecture of your childhood. This ruse is your currency of the moment. I know you. You have swindled your brothers and sisters with many recoveries. My daughter, is there nobody to take you by the hair and demand that you seek out America or Europe?

ferris wheel waves crash over dock no longer stands In 1973, the Haiku Society of America noted that the norm for writers of haiku in English was to use 17 syllables, but they also noted a trend toward shorter haiku.[12] Some translators of Japanese poetry have noted that about 12 syllables in English approximate the duration of 17 Japanese on.
rainy season grief, white hydrangeas hungry caterpillar In part, The Haiku Society of America's definition of a haiku reads, "Usually a haiku in English is written in three unrhymed lines of seventeen or fewer syllables." Further, Japanese scholar Shigehisa Kuriyama states, "The 5-7-5 pattern by itself does not make a haiku." (Gurga, p. 1). Contemporary English language haiku have departed radically from the 5-7-5 convention, including the Beat haiku of Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, and Gary Snyder, the latter awarded the Masaoka Shiki International Haiku Grand Prize in 2004. The haiku of Robert Spiess are especially experimental. I recommend two sources for further study of haiku: "Haiku: A Poet's Guide," by Lee Gurga, addresses haiku in it's traditional form; "Haiku Poetics in Twentieth-Century Avant-Garde Poetry," by Jeffery Johnson discusses haiku as realized by modernist poets. Speaking personally, it is most important for me to enjoy writing a haiku, correct form or not, and for my haiku to be enjoyed by the reader.

The internet is full of hate and ignorance. I'm trying to change that for the good of mankind. So I might as well start on my own turf! The furry fandom!
A lot of people seem to hate furries before they even know what they are, so here's a little "information doohick" to explain the basics to ya. I urge you, please make your own decisions on those who are different. Please don't just go "THEY'RE DIFFERENT! THEY'RE WRONG!" Be remembered, but be remembered for doing a good thing, not for hatred, not for loathing.
Peace out. ~ Tori Belliachi

Now i am understanding what a furry exactly is! :D
very very helpful since i become a furry this month and im a christan now i know thare are christan furrys too.
Very well done
One thing though, there's a LOT more than 100,000 furries, i have a furry only steam clan with over 50,000 members, im guessing that not half of furries have steam... and I'm sure God doesn't hate furries, he doesn't hate anyone lol and it's not a sin either. imma christian furry i've done the research
I'm surprised this survived on Newgrounds of all places.
You seemed to have covered a wide range of the culture and misconceptions. Though, I think the number of artistic furries was a little high. o.o
(felt more like 75% to me and even then that's if you are using a loose definition of "artistic")
One thing you failed to cover was the "furry intensity levels".
(Not Furry [0%] -> Neko [20%]-> Furry [50%]-> Very Furry [70%]-> Borderline Bestiality [90%])
Oh and Wolfman I personally know at least 3 non-American Furries (A Frenchy, A Pole, and A German)
Do you have ta be american to be a furry? =3 If anyone could answer that for meh id appreciate it. Wolf.

I found this to be full of small hard lumps. Such a shame as I prefer to buy fairtrade items but I will now try the ordinary icing sugar to see if it is any better.

Had to put in blender as was so lumpy
Bought 3 packets as were on offer, but all 3 were very lumpy - hard lumps, and one packet was one complete lump. I managed to use the icing sugar, but had to put it in blender first, which was messy to do and hassle I didn't need. Is that why it was on offer? Not up to Ocado usual standard. Never had icing sugar like it before, of any brand.

Saturday Reads
Posted: November 23, 2013 Filed under: Afghanistan, China, Foreign Affairs, Great Britain, Iran, morning reads, NSA, National Security Agency, Saudi Arabia, U.S. Politics | Tags: cell phones on airplanes, domestic surveillance, drones, Federal Communications Commission (FCC), John Kerry, Kendric Johnson case, U.S. District Judge William H. Pauley III 45 CommentsGood Morning!!
Amid all the bad news, there's apparently progress in the negotiations with Iran. The LA Times reported yesterday that a "nuclear deal appears imminent." Secretary of State John Kerry headed to Geneva, Switzerland yesterday to help out.
After a rocky day Thursday, negotiators appeared for now to have overcome their differences on Iran's entitlement to enrich uranium and on how to curb progress on a partially built nuclear research reactor that Western powers view as a particular threat.
U.S. Secretary of State John F. Kerry left late Friday for Geneva to help "narrow the differences and move closer to an agreement," the State Department said. Sergei Lavrov, Russia's foreign minister, arrived from Moscow early Friday evening, making him the first of the six nations' ministers to show up for a possible signing ceremony that would end a decade of usually stalemated negotiations….
A deal would be a first-stage agreement that would give Iran temporary relief from the crushing Western sanctions on its economy in exchange for temporary limits on its nuclear program. Many nations fear that Iran, despite its insistence that its program is for peaceful purposes only, is seeking weapons capability with its huge nuclear infrastructure.
This deal would open the way for tough bargaining on a final, comprehensive agreement that would take six months or longer to be reached.
Isn't it amazing what you can accomplish with a little carrot and stick diplomacy? Too bad Bush and Cheney never tried it.
U.S. negotiators and their counterparts from the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia and China have been meeting with the Iranians since Wednesday in an effort to strike an interim deal to delay Iran's nuclear program while a larger deal is worked out that would prevent the Islamic Republic from obtaining nuclear weapons.
Britain's Foreign Secretary William Hague spoke of "very difficult negotiations, saying "narrow gaps" remain on the same issues that blocked agreement at the last round earlier this month.
"We're not here because things are necessarily finished," Hague told reporters. "We're here because they're difficult, and they remain difficult."
Still, the fact that they are talking is definitely encouraging. In another sign that something is actually happening, the Chinese foreign minister arrived in Geneva today. "Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Hong Lei said Saturday the talks…have reached the final moment."
For those of you who still use air travel, the FCC is on the verge of making a decision that could make flying infinitely more annoying that it is already. From The Washington Post: FCC sees backlash after proposing to allow in-flight cellphone calls on planes.
The Federal Communications Commission said Thursday that it will consider rules that would allow air travelers to make calls and use their cellular data plans once a plane reaches 10,000 feet. Restrictions would remain for takeoffs and landings.
The proposal, which will be raised at the commission's meeting next month, has the backing of the agency's newly appointed chairman. But the idea is bound to be controversial. Within hours of the announcement, consumers flooded the agency with protests.
One FCC commissioner received hundreds of e-mails complaining that the move would lead to unbearable noise pollution, an aide said. Passengers are already crammed into smaller seats and tighter rows, and being forced to listen to one another's calls would be yet another indignity, they wrote.
A petition quickly went up on the White House Web site Thursday, asking the Obama administration to stop the effort. "This would make an already cranky, uncomfortable travel experience exponentially worse, and as a frequent flier and concerned citizen, I think the administration needs to nip this in the bud," a resident from Richmond wrote.
Something tells me if this plan goes through, there are going be a lot more air rage incidents in the not-so-friendly skies. But after the uproar, USA Today is reporting that the new FCC commissioner–only three weeks into the job–is backpedaling rapidly.
NEW YORK (AP) — A day after setting off an uproar among travelers opposed to in-flight phone calls, the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission Chairman backtracked, saying he personally isn't in favor of calls on planes.
The role of the FCC, he added, is to advise if there is a safety issue with using phones on planes. He said there is "no technical reason to prohibit" the use of mobile devices on planes.
"We understand that many passengers would prefer that voice calls not be made on airplanes. I feel that way myself," chairman Tom Wheeler said in a Friday statement.
The decision to allow calls will ultimately rest with the airlines, Wheeler emphasized.
The Wall Street Journal reports that U.S. District Judge William H. Pauley III "Appears Receptive to Critics of NSA's Collection of Phone Data." Back in 1979, the Supreme Court decided that phone records are not private, because we willingly give the information to our telephone company. But now Judge Pauley is questioning that decision based on recent revelations about NSA data collection.
"Doesn't the information collected here reveal far more?" U.S. District Judge William H. Pauley III asked during a hearing in Manhattan federal court on Friday.
Judge Pauley also questioned whether Congress could authorize the collection when the NSA program's existence wasn't widely known among lawmakers.
The hearing stemmed from a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union and its New York affiliate days after the program was revealed in news reports that were based on documents provided by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden. The groups argue the bulk collection of records called metadata—which includes the phone numbers people dialed and where they were calling from—violates Americans' privacy rights, as well as federal law.
The judge issued no immediate ruling and left open the possibility that he could dismiss part of the case, because federal law designates the secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court as the proper venue for certain national-security issues.
Pauley is a Clinton appointee.
In Pakistan, a protest by about 10,000 people against U.S. drone strikes succeeded in blocking a supply route to and from Afghanistan.
The protest, led by Pakistani politician and cricket star Imran Khan, had more symbolic value than practical impact as there is normally little NATO supply traffic on the road on Saturdays. The blocked route in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province leads to one of two border crossings used to send supplies overland from Pakistan to neighboring Afghanistan.
Khan, whose Tehreek-e-Insaf party runs the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government, called on federal officials to take a firmer stance to force the U.S. to end drone attacks and block NATO supplies across the country.
"We will put pressure on America, and our protest will continue if drone attacks are not stopped," Khan told the protesters.
The demonstrators dispersed after Khan's speech, but his party put out a statement saying they will begin stopping trucks from carrying NATO supplies through Khyber Pakhtunkhwa indefinitely beginning Sunday night. That could spark a clash with the federal government.
Raw Story has an update in the case of Kendrick Johnson, the 17-year-old whose body was found inside a gym mat in a Valdosta, GA high school.
At least an hour of footage is missing from each of the four surveillance cameras at Kendrick Johnson's high school, and the original footage showing how the Georgia teenager died might be gone, CNN reported on Thursday.
"Those files are not original files," forensics video analyst Grant Fredericks told CNN. "They're not something investigators should rely on for the truth of the video."
CNN enlisted Fredericks in order to analyze more than 290 hours of video it acquired from Lowndes County High School, where the 17-year-old was found dead in the gym in January. Local officials initially determined that he died from asphyxiation after getting trapped inside a gym mat, an argument his family has rejected. An independent autopsy ordered by the victim's family found the cause of death to be "unexplained, apparent non-accidental, blunt force trauma."
But while the Lowndes Public Schools district told CNN the video it provided was "a raw feed with no edits," Fredericks disagreed, saying it was "altered in a number of ways, primarily in image quality and likely in dropped information, information loss. There are also a number of files that are corrupted because they've not been processed correctly and they're not playable. I can't say why they were done that way, but they were not done correctly, and they were not done thoroughly. So we're missing information."
Specifically, two of the cameras are missing 65 minutes of footage each, while the other two are missing 130 minutes apiece. Another camera outside of the gymnasium has a time stamp 10 minutes behind the ones inside.
It sounds like the cover had to involve someone in the school administration, doesn't it?
So . . . it's kind of a slow news day, but I found a few stories for you to talk about. What are you hearing? Did I miss any big news? Please post your links in the comment thread.
Saturday Reads: Unpredictable Weather, Rand Paul, and Other Odd News
Posted: March 9, 2013 Filed under: morning reads, Republican politics, science, Senate, U.S. Economy, U.S. Politics, Women's Rights | Tags: archaeology, Bernie Sanders, coronavirus, drones, Filibuster, Rand Paul, SARS, sequestration cuts, snow, Stonehenge, The Girls of the Manhattan Project, weather 32 CommentsGood Morning!!
I got about a foot of snow dumped on me by the latest storm, when the prediction the day before had been for about 3-5 inches. Boy were the predictions wrong for this one! Last night the Boston Globe weather blogger tried to explain "Why was there so much more snow than predicted?"
Now that the big storm is over, I am looking at why this was such a poor forecast. The basic reason was a bit more cold air than expected, more moisture and it lasted longer. No one expected so much snow to fall from 4 AM this morning until mid-afternoon. Storms usually need to be at roughly 40 degrees latitude and 70 degrees west longitude to give us a major snow event. Meteorologists around here call this the benchmark. If a storm passes near the benchmark, and it's cold enough, we are often in for a good snowstorm. This storm passed hundreds of miles further east than that typical spot for a major snowstorm. One of the reasons I was confident in not seeing this size snowstorm, was the predicted distance of the storm from our area. That prediction by the models turned out to be pretty good. Temperatures were also forecast to be about 4 degrees milder. As it turn out, it's sort of a good thing it ended up being colder because heavy wet snow of these amounts would have been catastrophic to the power situation.
I see . . . well, not really. Anyway, the stuff is melting already which is a good thing, because I wasn't able to shovel my driveway out completely yesterday. We're supposed to get temperatures in the 40s and 50s for the next few days, so I guess that will rescue me. Now what's in the news today?
I see that Kentucky Senator Rand Paul is really full of himself after his "talking filibuster" the other day.
He's got an op-ed in the Washington Post bragging, "My filibuster was just the beginning."
If I had planned to speak for 13 hours when I took the Senate floor Wednesday, I would've worn more comfortable shoes. I started my filibuster with the words, "I rise today to begin to filibuster John Brennan's nomination for the CIA. I will speak until I can no longer speak" — and I meant it.
I wanted to sound an alarm bell from coast to coast. I wanted everybody to know that our Constitution is precious and that no American should be killed by a drone without first being charged with a crime. As Americans, we have fought long and hard for the Bill of Rights. The idea that no person shall be held without due process, and that no person shall be held for a capital offense without being indicted, is a founding American principle and a basic right.
I certainly agree that the president shouldn't have the power to kill Americans without due process, but I'd be more impressed with Paul if he supported other constitutional rights like equal treatment under the law for minorities, women and LGBT people. I can't take anyone seriously as a defender of the Constitution if he opposes civil rights and the right of a woman to control her own body.
According to Grace Wyler at Business Insider, Libertarians Believe Their Moment Has Finally Arrived. On the other hand, Chris Cillizza explains why Why the Rand Paul filibuster might not be such good news for the GOP.
Everyone seems to be calling Paul's filibuster "historic," and no one is even mentioning the (IMO) much more dramatic and impressive filibuster by Bernie Sanders just a couple of years ago.
Sequestration cuts, anyone?
While the Village media types focus on either fawning over or condemning Rand Paul's performance, local journalists around the country are reporting on the damage being done by sequestration cuts.
The debate over sequestration this past week has come down to two questions: Was the administration exaggerating the impact of the spending cuts, and did they really need to shut down White House tours because of them?
It's been the predominant theme at the White House briefings, a constant subject of discussion on cable news and a topic of fascination on Capitol Hill. House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) even took up the cause at a press briefing this week, saying: "I think it's silly that they have insisted on locking down the White House, which the American people actually own."
Beneath that debate, however, is a different type of conversation about the impact of the $85 billion in cuts. While the national media has focused on those two questions, local coverage has been more directed at the tangible impact the budget restraints will have. The Huffington Post reviewed dozens of local television news broadcasts, using the service TVeyes.com, to survey coverage of sequestration outside of the Beltway.
Check out the many examples of real pain for localities at the link. And besides, according to Buzzfeed, Nobody Liked The White House Tours That Much Anyway. They're only rated 3.5 on Yelp. Read the negative reviews at the link.
Interesting book review at The Daily Beast
The Girls of the Manhattan Project.
They were the employees of the gigantic uranium-enrichment plant at Oak Ridge, Tenn.—those who lived and toiled in this purpose-built secret city in the Appalachian Mountains, many of them young women, had only been told that their efforts would help bring home American soldiers. Then, when atomic power was deployed against an enemy nation for the first (and so far, last) time, Oak Ridge residents realized what they had been working toward, and why their every move had been monitored, their every utterance policed, and their every question stonewalled.
In The Girls of Atomic City: The Untold Story of the Women Who Helped Win World War II, Denise Kiernan recreates, with cinematic vividness and clarity, the surreal Orwell-meets-Margaret Atwood environment of Oak Ridge as experienced by the women who were there. They were secretaries, technicians, a nurse, a statistician, a leak pipe inspector, a chemist, and a janitor. "Site X" began construction in late 1942, and was also known as the Clinton Engineering Works (CEW) and the Reservation. Staff members were recruited from all over the U.S., but particularly from nearby Southern states, and were offered higher than average wages, on-site housing and cafeterias, and free buses.
More importantly, they were offered the chance to join the 400,000 or so American women performing non-combatant roles in the armed services, as well as those keeping vital industries afloat and helping the men on the front lines. But whereas a female Air Force pilot or munitions factory worker understood precisely her contributions to the war effort, the women at Oak Ridge were kept in the dark about the actual purpose of their workplace, a mystery heightened by the apparent lack of anything ever leaving the site. Provided with "just enough detail to do their job well, and not an infinitesimal scrap more," workers at all levels were forbidden from taking the slightest interest in anyone else's duties. "Stick to your knitting," in the words of Lieutenant General Leslie Groves, head of the Project.
That sounds like a fascinating book!
ABC News reports on a scary new virus–the coronaviris.
Health officials are warning of a new virus that has sickened at least 14 people worldwide, killing eight of them.
There are no known American cases of the coronavirus, known as hCoV-EMC, but the U.S. Centers for Disease Control is urging doctors with patients who have an unexplained respiratory illness after traveling to the Arabian peninsula or neighboring countries to report the cases to the CDC.
Doctors should also report patients with known diseases who don't respond to appropriate treatment, the agency said its Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. Close contacts of a symptomatic patient should also be evaluated.
The novel virus, which is associated with severe respiratory illness with renal failure, was first recognized last September and caused alarm because it is genetically and clinically similar to the SARS virus, which caused hundreds of deaths worldwide.

A new archaeological theory about Stonehenge
The Guardian: Stonehenge may have been burial site for Stone Age elite, say archaeologists.
Centuries before the first massive sarsen stone was hauled into place at Stonehenge, the world's most famous prehistoric monument may have begun life as a giant burial ground, according to a theory disclosed on Saturday.
More than 50,000 cremated bone fragments, of 63 individuals buried at Stonehenge, have been excavated and studied for the first time by a team led by archaeologist Professor Mike Parker Pearson, who has been working at the site and on nearby monuments for decades. He now believes the earliest burials long predate the monument in its current form.
The first bluestones, the smaller standing stones, were brought from Wales and placed as grave markers around 3,000BC, and it remained a giant circular graveyard for at least 200 years, with sporadic burials after that, he claims.
It had been thought that almost all the Stonehenge burials, many originally excavated almost a century ago, but discarded as unimportant, were of adult men. However, new techniques have revealed for the first time that they include almost equal numbers of men and women, and children including a newborn baby.
I'll end with this "chart of the day" from Business Insider:
"The Scariest Jobs Chart Ever"


text: September 21, 2008 (Bend, Or) The Women's Motocross Association announced today the new location and date of the WMA Cup the largest women's motocross race in history. The sixth annual WMA Cup will take place at Freestone County Raceway, in Wortham, Texas, over the weekend of January 2 4, 2009 and will be run on the "National track" in conjunction with Freestone's first ever motocross amateur national event.The WMA Cup, which has drawn a record of 270 women entries in one year, is considered one of the premier championships on the women's motocross calendar. The unique event offers upwards of 15 separate girls/women's classes for all skill levels, bike sizes and ages and gives females the chance to race more than one women's class. The Cup also draws from a long list of women competitors from all over the globe.Says WMA President, Miki Keller, "We have had huge success with the WMA Cup but as women's motocross continues to grow I felt that it would be best not to have the race overlap with another amateur event." "We developed a great relationship with Freestone Raceway at the WMA pro national this year and Freestone is very dedicated to women's motocross and putting on the best possible races. When the chance to move the WMA Cup and be a part of a new amateur national event presented itself, it seemed like the perfect evolution for this great championship", added Keller.All the important traditions and warm culture that defined the WMA Cup will stay in tact and will likely get even better with the involvement of the Freestone team.For more information on the WMA Cup visit www.wmaracing.com or www.freestonemx.com for more information.

Journell apologizes, Exum nears return and injury updates on Edmunds, Coleman and Jarrett
There was plenty to cover from Monday's post-practice interviews, so I'll break out the three big things to start, then tack on a few more odds and ends at the end.
1. Cody Journell spoke to the media, apologized vaguely and wanted to move on to the next game.
Somewhat surprisingly, considering Virginia Tech's habit of holding out suspended players from interviews, kicker Cody Journell met with the media after Monday's practice to make a few statements about his recent one-game suspension.
"All I'm saying is that I made a mistake last week and I'm sorry for it," he said, like head coach Frank Beamer earlier, not getting more specific about the reason for his suspension. "And I want to apologize to the coaches and players and my family and everybody that supports me. But I'm back this week and everything's going to be fine."
Journell was asked a couple times if he was given any last-straw dictum or ultimatum about staying on the right path. He said he hadn't gotten that.
"We already dealt with it before the game and after that it's over," he said of his Saturday chat with Beamer. "Now it's back to football."
He said he's optimistic that he's fixed the mechanical issues he had that led to his rough day at East Carolina in Week 3, using the golf analogy that Beamer is so fond of.
"You mess up and try to fix one little thing, it just compounds after that and gets worse," he said.
Journell said he put all of his kicks through the uprights Monday. How confident is he that that'll be the case come Thursday?
"As confident as I can be without being 100 percent," he said.
2. Injured cornerback Antone Exum will have his checkup this Saturday, with hopes of being back in time for next Monday's practice before the North Carolina game.
This differs from what head athletic trainer Mike Goforth told me at practice, that Exum would meet with Dr. James Andrews in Pensacola, Fla., on Oct. 1. Perhaps something changed in the few hours when I spoke with Goforth and we media met with Exum at night.
Nevertheless, Exum says he'll be in Florida Saturday, wanting to be cleared for next Monday's practice, with an eye on returning for the North Carolina game Oct. 5. He'll be a little less than eight months removed from surgery to repair a torn ACL and bone fracture in his right knee.
He's been in a blue, limited jersey in recent weeks, slowly building back into game shape. He doesn't feel rusty.
"I feel good out there," he said. "I've been working extremely hard to get the knee where it needs to be to make those certain cuts and movements. And I've just been trying to fine-tune everything. It's coming together. I feel like I can be better than I was before I hurt the knee."
Asked if he expects to start when he returns, Exum didn't hesitate: "Yes."
He's unsure exactly what that means for freshmen Kendall Fuller or Brandon Facyson, who have played well in his absence. A nickel role obviously still exists, where Fuller has excelled.
Looking for a good sign? Exum hasn't felt pain in his knee after a workout in a while.
"I think I've pretty much passed those days," Exum said.
3. A few Hokies are dinged up after the Marshall game, although the outlook for Thursday looks good.
In addition to Exum, offensive lineman Mark Shuman (knee), running back Trey Edmunds (hip), whip linebacker Josh Trimble (hip) and center David Wang (shoulder) were in blue, limited jerseys Monday.
Edmunds took a shot on his right hip near the end of the Marshall game. He came out for a play or two but went back in.
"I think he'll be OK," running backs coach Shane Beamer said. "I think it was just a little tight and sore. But he said he'd be ready to go Thursday. … If we had a game today, we would have played."
More encouraging for the Hokies is who wasn't in a blue jersey. Namely, running back J.C. Coleman and safety Kyshoen Jarrett.
For Coleman, who has missed three of the first four weeks with an ankle sprain, it's the best he's felt since first rolling both his ankles during a middle drill in August.
"He said he felt great," Shane said. "Knock on wood. We were working last night and I looked out my window and he was out there on the field running around and looked good. Said he felt great last night and said he felt great today. He's done more today than he's done in a long time. So hopefully tomorrow when he wakes up he'll feel good and that will carry over to Thursday, because we need to get that speed on the field."
Jarrett was limping a little in the overtime after making that game-saving interception near the end of regulation. But he was moving around fine Monday and didn't appear to be limited, wearing a regular practice jersey.

Plenty more notes and quotes from Monday's interviews. Here are a few more nuggets:
– We asked linebacker Jack Tyler what he thinks of the "Hokie Stone" helmets Virginia Tech will roll out against Georgia Tech on Thursday.
"I like them a lot," he said. "I like the message behind it more than really the look of it. It's just the community and the pillars that we're trying to represent, I think that's the part that I like."
– I'll have more about the defense and its approach in defending Georgia Tech for my game advance later this week, but Tyler knows this is a huge game for him as the Mike linebacker. Last year, in a game that put him on the map, Tyler had 17 tackles against the Yellow Jackets in a 20-17 season-opening overtime win on Labor Day.
"I mean, this is my game," he said. "This is the game that my skills come out to play the most. I feel like this is like my time. That's how I come into this game. If I play bad, our defense isn't going to be very good, because a lot of the onus is on me, a lot of the plays really involve me. I'm supposed to be everywhere in this defense. So really, it is kind of on my shoulders. I take pride in that. I like this week. This is my favorite week to play. Just because I do know that it's on my shoulders and win or lose, it's probably because of me."
– I'm writing about J.R. Collins for Wednesday's paper. He said he scored in the 70′s using Virginia Tech's point system for defenders against Marshall. The Hokies have said that's higher than the previous record holders, a couple of all-time Tech greats in Corey Moore and Cornell Brown.
"He's ballin' right now," defensive line coach Charley Wiles said. "That [Marshall] kid couldn't block him."
– Spoke with new offensive lineman Alston Smith, who is about as happy-go-lucky of a player as I've seen on this team. Very interesting person to talk to. He didn't shy away from talking about his dad, Hall of Famer Bruce, telling us that he had seven or eight different pass rush moves.
"And they were all perfect," Alston said.
I'm going to write a little more on Smith tomorrow morning on the blog. Just quickly though, he did mention that Tech has already moved him over to left guard. He started on the right side.
– Shane Beamer was a graduate assistant at Georgia Tech in 2000, back when Ted Roof was the Yellow Jackets' defensive coordinator. Roof is back at his alma mater for a second stint as d-coordinator and already has the group off to a great start.
Georgia Tech ranks 11th nationally in total defense, giving up 275.3 yards per game.
"They're playing hard," Shane said. "I mean, it's the same group. … He's done a great job. They're simpler in what they're doing, it looks like, compared to last year. They've got some pressures that we've got to be aware of. They're not going to trick you but they're going to be where they're supposed to be, and they're going to play hard fundamentally."
– Shane said even if Coleman returns to the fold this week, there's still a role for both he and Chris Mangus, who can be used out wide as a receiver in a lot of sets.
"It's essentially at times three different positions that they need to learn, depending on the personnel package we're in," Shane said. "I've just got to be smart about overloading them.
"Chris had some mental errors, too many in the game Saturday. Just too much trouble lining up. And he had been good in practice and then for whatever reason in the game he had some struggles. I've got to remember that he's a freshman and then J.C.'s still young. J.C.'s getting game action here for the first time this year. So you've got to be smart about what you ask them to do. The possibilities of them are very intriguing. It's how much can they handle."
– Shane reiterated his statements last week that he'd like to get redshirt freshman tailback Joel Caleb more playing time.
"East Carolina, he's standing next to me, he's as good looking a guy as we have on this team," Shane said. "It's important to him. He was ticked off at me Saturday for not playing him more and he kept telling me, 'I'm ready. Put me in the game.'"
Shane hesitated to do so because the conditions were so bad. Since Caleb hadn't played in the game up to that point, he didn't feel comfortable inserting him at a crucial juncture, even with Edmunds out briefly.
"Need to find ways to get him on the field because he's a big target at the receiver position, and then he brings some size to the tailback position," Shane said.
– The kickoff return team has been bad so far this year, but Shane, who coaches the group, thinks the last two returns the Hokies had against Marshall — which went for 25 and 30 yards — might be the start of the Hokies turning a corner.
The problem so far for a group that ranks 112th nationally, averaging 17.7 yards per return? Blocking and tentativeness.
That's strange, because it's essentially the same personnel the Hokies had last year, when they ranked 18th nationally on kick returns (24.04 avg.), with Knowles 12th individually (28.3 avg.).
("I did it last year too when we were top 20 in the country," Shane said with a laugh. "Make sure you print that.")
Tech has some new blockers in the front of the unit, where only Derek DiNardo is back. But the back group — Chase Williams, Duan Perez-Means and Josh Trimble – remains the same. Shane said he was disappointed from an execution standpoint, particularly against East Carolina, when Tech's blockers "just whiffed on guys."
But Shane thinks Knowles has to be more assertive too.
"I'm not sure he totally trusts what's going on in front of him now," Shane said. "Kick return's a deal where you can't catch it and look around and figure out where you want to go. You've got to catch it and you've got to go right now."
Knowles had big returns last year against North Carolina, Miami and Boston College. The common thread? North-south running, not east-west.
"Against Marshall Saturday, the first one [that went to the 11-yard line], he kind of caught it, looked around to figure out where he wanted to go. By then, you're getting hit," Shane said. "The last two that we returned, our two best of the year, were when we caught it and he went. Trust the blocking. Trust these guys that they're where they are supposed to be. And let's go execute. I think if we do that, we'll be fine."

3. Visit Another Millennium at Machias Bay
When kayaking coastlines, too often you'll notice that someone has arrived before you. Well, up at the end of Maine in Machias Bay, at least it's been by a thousand years. Native American petroglyphs remain on waterline rock walls onshore and on islands a short paddle off. Do they depict people, animals, spirits? You be the judge, as there is little known about the ancient images believed to have been dinted, or tapped into the rock, by residents of land near the modern-day Passamaquoddy. If you're an experienced paddler, guide yourself through the bay, which is also home to an 18th-century shipwreck, harbor seals, bald eagles, terns, and black-backed gulls. If you're looking for some local knowledge, sign on for a half-day paddle with Sunrise Canoe and Kayak, which offers a range of northern Maine trips. Some visitors connect with the ancient art, while others give it only a passing glance. No matter. Those seeking solitude in Machias Bay are among kindred spirits: You'll be far from the lobster-loving crowds that don't make it past Acadia. – Tom Haines

The 45 House Republicans who have most consistently pushed their caucus to brinkmanship represent districts (mostly in the Deep South) that are significantly worse off economically than the nation at large, the Washington Post reported. "The median income in those districts last year was 7 percent lower than the national median, according to the Census Bureau," the Post said. "The unemployment rate averaged 10 percent. That was almost 2 percentage points higher than the national rate, and 2 percentage points higher than the overall rate in the states that contain each district."

This will be a short, but sweet, note. After viewing the live webcast of NVIDIA's (NVDA) CES press conference, I came away absolutely shocked at what NVIDIA has managed to bring to the table. Indeed, while I had been a bit uneasy about NVIDIA's decision to delay Tegra 4 in order to speed-up its next generation "Project Logan" (i.e. Tegra K1) SoC, it seems that the move was well worth it.
NVIDIA's Tegra K1 - Does The "K" Stand For Kickass?
At the press conference, NVIDIA unveiled its next generation Tegra K1 system-on-chip. Apparently, it's going to come in two flavors:
While both flavors come with a 192-core version of its "Kepler" GPU (also known as a single SMX in Kepler-architecture speak), the real surprise was that there will be two iterations. The first will come with the standard quad ARM (ARMH) Cortex A15 CPUs, but the second version - slated for a second half of 2014 launch - will sport two of NVIDIA's custom designed ARMv8-based "Denver" CPUs.
The neat thing about Denver is that it looks to be a VERY beefy CPU core, in the same vein as what Apple did with its "Cyclone" processor rather than what the traditional mobile SoC vendors have been doing (i.e. wimpier cores). This means very high single threaded performance (which I've argued time and again is most important). This processor core could easily serve - in a multi-core configuration - as the basis for a very high performance server processor or PC processor (if x86 compatibility weren't an issue) considering that it is extremely wide (7-wide, to be precise) and likely very high performance.
The Apple A7 Comparison - Interesting
At the press conference, NVIDIA pointed out that the 192-core GPU block in the Tegra K1 (both variants) is about 3x the performance of the Imagination Technologies (OTCPK:IGNMF) PowerVR G6430 in the Apple A7. While I would like some more detailed performance numbers particularly coupled with precise power measurements, it really does stand to reason that a company like NVIDIA with efficient, high performance GPUs in its DNA would be able to pull this off for a tablet-oriented chip.
At any rate, unless Qualcomm (QCOM) announces something on top of its Snapdragon 805 that ends up spoiling the party, and unless Intel (INTC) pulls in its Cherry Trail tablet chip, it seems to me that NVIDIA should have the highest performing GPU in any low-power SoC on the planet for the balance of 2014. After three generations (Tegra 2, 3, and 4) of disappointing graphics performance in mobile from the world leader in graphics technology, this is finally the SoC that rights the ship and shows investors and OEMs what NVIDIA is made of.
I'm Legitimately Thrilled
While I still want to see what Qualcomm and Intel have in store for this year's CES, it's going to be very difficult to top what NVIDIA showed off today at CES. As an NVIDIA long for well over a year now who has heard continued prognostications about the "death" of NVIDIA, I'm gratified that management and the teams seem to have pulled through. All that's left now is the launch of Tegra K1 based tablets - with ARM-designed CPU cores in 1H 2014 and NVIDIA's shiny, super-fast new "Denver" core in 2H 2014.

A formal memorial for Hattie was held at the Santa Rosa Veterans Memorial Building on Thursday, February 27. Approximately 200 people were there to pay their respects, and formal presentations were made by representatives from AMVETS Post 40, the Navy WAVES, American Legion Post 21, and the Pacific Coast Air Museum. Military Honors were performed by AMVETS Post 40. A planned flyover by the PCAM T-28 had to be cancelled because of the weather.
Hattie's contribution to the Sonoma County community and the Pacific Coast Air Museum cannot be overestimated. A U.S. Navy veteran, she contributed time, effort, money, and her incomparable spirit to many veteran-related organizations. PCAM was among her favorites. The PCAM Hattie Stone Memorial Building Fund is named after her. Much of the money she donated made it possible for us to create the F-15 "First Responder" exhibit in 2011, which did a lot to raise the prestige of the Museum in the eyes of the public, the community of museums, and the military.

Rest in peace, Hattie.

Come see the new EA-6B Prowler
Christmas came early to PCAM in 2013, with the arrival of the latest addition to the PCAM collection: an EA-6B Prowler electronic warfare aircraft from the U.S. Navy, on loan from the National Naval Aviation Museum at Pensacola, Florida. Prowler #158811 arrived right on schedule at 1:00 p.m. on December 7, 2013, doing a couple touch-and-gos and flybys before settling onto the runway for the last time. A crowd of PCAM members was on hand to welcome the plane and her crew.
The photo above shows her climbing out for a go-around after a touch-and-go, just before her final landing at the Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport.
You can now see the Prowler on the field at the Pacific Coast Air Museum.
