Scamming is a BIG Business
Read more
Scammers net millions if not billions of dollars each year world wide. IC3 reports that in 2009, Americans lost almost 560 million dollars to scams. Scammers take advantage of honest, hard working people looking for people that are lonely or recently had a tragedy in their life and play with their emotions.
How could I be so stupid
Read more
After getting scammed, many people ask the question "how could I be so stupid". The answer is, you're not. Scammers learn how to play on people's emotions and especially their concern for others. They will take as long as they think they need to gain your trust then the so-called problems they encounter will suddenly begin.
There are countless suicides because someone believed they were loved only to get very emotionally hurt and/or lose their life savings
Do these scammers look like they care?
Do not end up in jail

Every day, innocent people end up in jail and have criminal records for life because they did something illegal when they actually thought they were helping someone. Cashing bogus checks or money orders then sending that money overseas is a crime whether you are aware you are committing a crime or not.
Warn your friends

Never trust a phone number
Read more
If someone gives you a phone number starting with 4470, it is a link number that connects you with anywhere in the world, but not to a real UK number. Link services are also available with U.S. area codes so never rely on a phone number for a true location.
The Scam Police

There is no such thing as Scam Police or ScamPolice. Cashing fake checks/money orders or receiving products then reshipping overseas can be a criminal offense. The REAL police can't do anything to scammers, so that just leaves you to take the blame.
From mass emails to web sites
Read more
About 30 years ago, the only way scammers could operate was through mass emails. In the mid 80's, they were called "Yahoo Boys" as opposed to "scammers". Today, scammers have a much better way to reach more people on a more personal level through social networking and dating web sites.

All of us here at Pig Busters would like to acknowledge and give special thanks to those of you who support this web site and its mission to increase scammer awareness by your positive comments, sharing your experiences and reporting scammers to us so the information can be posted to warn others.
Mean, cold and heartless
Read more
Like the terrorists above, scammers are not the "nice guys" they make themselves appear to be. When they don't get what they want from you, they can be very mean and many times threatening. Usually threats are their last attempt to try and intimidate you into sending them money. They will tell you they know where you are and have friends that can "get you" but don't believe it.
They love you then need you
Read more
Scammers will tell you they have fallen in love with you within the first few messages or chats. They want to come be with you but all of a sudden, some crisis happens and they don't have the money, can't get to the money or for some other false reasons, you are the only person that can help them. And most of the time, you must help them as soon as possible (before you have time to think).
Chat with me
Read more
One of the first things a scammer will do is to try and get you away from the site to chat with them on instant messenger. Scammers try to work very fast in most cases and IM is much faster than conversating through emails and web site messages.
Read my profile
Read more
One of the biggest advantages scammers have is that many, many people do not read profiles. They get so taken by that "good looking" guy or girl who sent them a message, they immediately focus on communication without even looking at the profile.
I want to send you a surprise
Read more
NEVER give your personal information to anyone you meet on a social networking or dating site. These days, it is just too dangerous. If you are talking to anyone who does not understand this, that should be a big red flag. Even if they want to "send you something, a surprise". This is a very common tactic used by scammers to get your information.
I want you to do me a favor
Read more
Another thing that is very popular with scammers is that they will want to send you items like clothes, shoes, cell phones, lap top computers and many other items. They will then want you to repackage them and ship the items to them so they can resell them. Don't do it. The items are always purchased with stolen credit card information.
Try not to get so wrapped up in a picture of someone that you ignore inconsistencies, flags and warning signs

US 4342521 A Résumé A paper feed apparatus for a business machine having endless forms feeding mechanism and sheet feeding mechanism incorporates lever means operable to disable the sheet feeding mechanism through movement of the sheet feed friction roll shaft about one of its ends thereby to separate the feed roll from engagement with a platen.
Revendications(6) 1. Paper feeding apparatus including a frame,
a platen rotatably mounted in said frame, a shaft supporting a friction feed roll for engagement with said platen rotatably supported at one end in said frame, lever means pivotally supported on said frame, and bearing means on said lever eccentric to said pivot for supporting the other end of said shaft, whereby pivoting movement of said lever means will pivot said shaft about its said one end. 2. Paper feeding apparatus including a frame,
a platen rotatably supported in said frame, a shaft supported within its axis parallel to the axis of said platen and supporting a feed roll in engagement with said platen, means for driving said shaft, gear means on said shaft and said platen for driving said platen, said shaft being rotatably mounted at one end in said frame, lever means pivoted to said frame, and bearing means on said lever means eccentric to the pivot of said lever means rotatably supporting the other end of said shaft, said lever means being pivotal from a cut sheet feed position to a forms feed position to effect movement of said shaft about its frame support and disengagement of said feed roll from said platen. 3. Paper feeding apparatus as recited in claim 2, including detent means comprising an abutment on said frame coaxial with said platen axis, and
a resilient detent on said lever means. 4. Paper feeding apparatus as recited in claim 3, said platen axis and said shaft axis being located in a substantially vertical plane, and
said lever pivot and shaft axis being located in a substantially horizontal plane. 5. Paper feeding apparatus as recited in claim 2, including spring means between said lever means and frame for biasing said lever to cut sheet feed position.
6. Paper feeding apparatus as recited in claim 2 said lever means consisting of a single molded plastic part.
Description This invention relates to paper feeding apparatus; more particularly it relates to paper feeding apparatus having a paper feed roll mounted on a shaft which is pivoted about one end to move the feed roll into or out of engagement with a platen; and specifically to lever means for mounting the other end of and for pivoting said feed roll support shaft. Paper feeding apparatus including mechanism for positively feeding endless edge perforated forms and mechanism for frictionally feeding paper sheets are known to the art as shown, for example, in German patent DE PS No. 687,971 and U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,012,289; 2,293,769 and 2,331,702 all issued to J. Q. Sherman or J. Q. Sherman, et. al. In these prior art patents the frictional feed mechanism, which includes feed rolls on transverse shafts biased toward the platen is, when endless forms are to be printed, disabled by bodily moving the feed roll supporting shaft away from the platen to disengage the feed rolls from the platen so as not to interfere with the forms feed mechanism. The support of the feed roll shaft and the means for shifting the feed roll shaft in the above noted prior art are complicated in design and expensive to manufacture and assemble. In accordance with the invention the disadvantages of the prior art are overcome in the provision of a pressure feed roll shaft which is arranged to be pivoted about one end when the other end, which is supported on a lever, is moved by pivoting the lever to a release position. The releasing movement is thus effected by a single lever pivotably mounted on a side frame which incorporates the support bearing for the movable end of the feed roll shaft and detent structure in a single molded plastic part. A feature of the arrangement according to the invention resides in the fact that the platen may be driven by the feed roll shaft and that the driving connection is not disturbed when the feed roll shaft is pivoted about one end to a release position. Thus the platen and feed roll shaft can be driven to feed paper sheets permitting a single pressure feed roll engaging the platen intermediate its ends to reliably feed paper sheets without skewing. Accordingly an object of the invention is to provide an inexpensively manufactured and easily assembled paper feed apparatus for feeding forms and sheets. Another object of the invention is to provide a paper feed apparatus in which a platen is driven through a pressure feed roll shaft to reliably feed paper sheets with a single centrally located pressure feed roll. A further object of the invention is in the provision of a paper feed apparatus having a feed roll supporting shaft mounted to be pivoted about one of its ends to a release position. A still further object of the invention is in the provision of positive and frictional feed means for forms or sheets selectable by movement of a single lever. Other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become known to those skilled in the art from a reading of the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing wherein like reference numerals designate like or corresponding parts throughout the several views thereof, and wherein: FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a paper feed assembly; FIG. 2 is a front elevational view of the pressure feed roll shaft showing dimensional relationships; FIG. 3 is a front elevational view of the control lever in relation to the axis of the platen in a positive forms feed position; and FIG. 4 is a side elevational view of the control lever. Referring now to the drawing where like reference numerals designate like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, there is shown in FIG. 1 a paper feed apparatus generally designed by reference numeral 11 assembled on left and right machine side frames 12 and 13 between which the shaft 14 of a platen 15 is rotatably mounted in frame supported sleeve bearings 16. Also supported non rotatively between the left and right side frame 12 and 13 is a bar 17 which as will be understood in the art, serves to support and guide a carriage supporting a print element for transverse movement relative to the platen 15. In addition, a feed roll shaft 18 on which a feed roll 19 is mounted has one end 20 rotatably mounted in a bearing in the left side frame 12. The other end 22 (FIG. 2) of the shaft 18 is rotatably supported in a bearing 23 formed on a control lever, generally designated by reference numeral 24, which is mounted to pivot on the right side frame 13 as will hereinafter appear. As shown in FIG. 1 the end of the platen 15 adjacent the left side frame 13 supports a ring gear 25 which is driven by a pinion gear 26 secured to the feed roll shaft 18. The feed roll shaft 18 also has secured thereto outwardly of and between pinion gear 26 and the left side frame 12 a drive pinion 27 adapted to be driven by the drive pinion of a motor (not shown) which may be supported on the outside of the left side frame 12 with its shaft extending through a circular cutout 58 in the left side frame 12. As shown in FIG. 2 the pinion gears 26 and 27 on the feed roll shaft may be formed as a single component 28. The resilient feed roll 19 is located, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 to engage the platen 15 intermediate its ends. The feed roll 19 comprises a ring 29 covered by an annulus 30 of resilient material ground to a convex periphery. In the parallel position of the paper feed roll shaft 18 relative to the platen shaft 14 as shown in FIG. 1, the paper feed roll 19, i.e. its convex periphery, rests against the platen 15 under slight bearing pressure. In this position, paper sheets or also ordinary paper in roll form can be conducted around the driven platen 15, feeding being accomplished by the paper feed roll 19 on the paper feed roll shaft 18 and counterrotating platen 15. To avoid slippage between the platen 15 and the paper feed roll 19, the diameter, d, of the paper feed roll 19 equals the pitch diameter, d', of the pinion 26. Furthermore, the diameter, D, of the platen 15 equals the pitch diameter, D', of the ring gear 25. Adjacent its ends, the platen 15 is provided with outwardly projecting pyramid or cone-shaped transport pins 61 adapted to engage fan-folded, endless or continuous forms provided with marginal holes, thereby effecting forms feeding during the rotation of the platen 15. During forms feeding the paper feed roll 19 on the paper feed roll shaft 18 must be disengaged from contact with the forms, i.e. it must be moved away from the surface of the platen 15 by a certain amount. To make this possible, the control or release lever 24 is pivotally mounted on the right side frame 13, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, by means of a bearing pin 32 extending into a fitting bearing bore in the right side frame 13; the bearing pin 32 being eccentric relative to the bearing 23 in the control lever 24. As may be seen from FIG. 3, the shaft 14 of platen 15 and the paper feed roll shaft 18 are located in a common, roughly vertical plane, i.e. the paper feed roll shaft 18 is below the platen 15. As is evident from FIG. 3, the bearing pin 32 and the bearing 23 of the paper feed roll shaft 18, in turn, are located in a common, roughly horizontal plane. Accordingly, the common plane of platen shaft 14 and paper feed roll shaft 18 and the common plane of lever bearing pin 32 and bearing 23 are roughly perpendicular to each other. It therefore follows that when the control lever 24 is pivoted about pin 32 by handle 33 in the direction of arrow 34 out of the paper sheet feed position, shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, into a forms feed position, indicated by the dotted line positions in FIGS. 1 and 3, the paper feed roll shaft 18 together with its bearing 23 is swung away in a downward direction indicated by arrow 35 in FIG. 3 whereas its opposite end 20 supported in left side frame 12, adjacent to the gear 25 and the pinion 26 remains unchanged. With reference to FIG. 2, since the distance, a, between the left side frame 12 and the center of the paper feed roll 19, is only about half the distance, b, between the left side frame 12 and the bearing 23 in the control lever 24, the paper feed roll 19 is moved downwardly away from the platen 15 by about 1 mm, if the bearing 23, for example, were pivoted downwardly by 2 mm. Furthermore, since the said distance, a, is considerably greater than the distance, c, between the bearing in the left side frame 12 and the pinion 26, the latter is pivoted downwardly by a correspondingly smaller amount so that it does not disengage from the ring gear 25. The magnitude of the ratio of distances a/c is from 5 to 10 which, from the above example, means that the pinion 26 will be pivoted downwardly by an amount as small as 0.1 to 0.2 mm. These tiny movements are possible without problem due to the design clearance between the end 20 of shaft 18 and its bearing hole in left side frame 12. Between the bearing pin 32 and the bearing 23 and the knurled handle 33 the control lever 24 is designed in the form of a closed frame 31 which is penetrated by the shaft 14 of the platen 15. A spring 36, designed in the manner of a leaf spring and provided at its upper free end with an approximately hemispherical sliding part 37, projects upwardly and outwardly from the lower bar of the frame 31. Elastically deforming the spring 36 as shown in dotted lines in FIG. 4, the sliding part 37 rests against the inside of the adjacent right side frame 13, thereby biasing the control lever 24, and with it the paper feed shaft 18 axially, as viewed in FIGS. 2 and 3, towards the opposite left side frame 12. Also, integrally formed on the frame 31 is a spring 38 designed in the manner of a leaf spring, which extends laterally toward the center of the frame 31 and is provided at its free end with a detent 39 comprising two contact surfaces 40, 42. In the position of the paper feed roll shaft 18 shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the one contact surface 40 rests, under a slight preload of the detent spring 38, against the platen shaft bearing bushing 16 formed at the inside of the right side frame 13. In the position of control lever 24 indicated in FIG. 1 in broken lines, in which the paper feed roll shaft 18 is pivoted downwardly away from the platen 15, the other contact surface 42 of the detent 39 as shown dotted in FIG. 3 is located on the opposite side of the bearing bushing 16, offset by about 90 lever 24 in direction 34, or in the opposite direction, the detent 39, and with it the detent spring 38, is deflected downwardly towards the lever bearing pin 32 and towards the bearing 23. Since the detent spring 38 extends roughly perpendicular to the plane erected by the platen shaft 14 and the paper feed roll shaft 18 and is clearly spaced from the plane erected by the bearing pin 32 and the bearing 23, this detenting motion of the detent 39 is accomplished without difficulty. At the lower end of the control lever 24, i.e. on the side of bearing 23 facing away from the bearing pin 32, there is fastened to a hook 43 a preloaded helical extension spring 44 whose other end is anchored to the right side frame 13. This assures sufficient bearing pressure by the paper feed roll 19 against the platen 15 in the position shown in FIG. 1. However, the helical extension spring 44 and the detent spring 38 are so balanced against each other that in the position in which the paper transport roll 19 is lifted off the platen 15 and in which the contact surface 42 of the detent 39 rests against the bearing bushing 16 as shown in dotted lines in FIG. 3, the force of the helical extension spring 44 is insufficient to bring about a return of the control lever 24 under corresponding deflection of the detent spring 38. As is evident from FIGS. 1 and 4, the control lever 24 is provided in the upper area of frame 31 with a guide bar 45 which grips over the arcuately shaped upper edge 46 of the right side frame 13, thus contacting the outside of the right side frame 13. The outwardly facing sides 47 of the frame 31 of the control lever 24 rest against the inside of the right side frame 13. For purposes of illustration, the platen 15 is shown in FIG. 3 in dash-dotted lines. Also shown in dash-dotted lines is the paper feed roll 19 in its sheet feed position resting against the platen 15. The dashed line 48 illustrates the forms feed position in which the feed roll 19 is moved away from the platen 15. The entire control lever 24 may consist of a one piece injection molded thermoplastic part with the detent spring 38 and the biasing spring 36 each being generated with the proper spring characteristic by appropriate dimensioning. As shown in FIG. 1 the side frames 12 and 13 include projecting lugs 51 which support sleeves 52 of resilient material. The lugs 51 bearing the sleeves 52 are adapted to be received in slots 53 of formations 54 on a base housing. Citations de brevets

Part of a monthlong series
In Billings, Mont., the land of the "Big Sky," there aren't many clouds. A city of about 100,000 people between Denver and Calgary, Billings is weathering the economic storm better than many other communities in this country.
In this sagging economy, homes can sit on the market for weeks or months. So, would-be sellers often move on, and instead of handing the keys over to new owners, they hand them to tenants. Sometimes that goes well — sometimes not.
"This is the new reality," says Chicago Realtor Frank Maguire. "Our market is, you might sell your home or you might not. There's a whole world of people who are unintentional landlords."
The Occupy Wall Street protests in several cities around the country have turned a spotlight on the growing frustration among the millennial generation, a group that has suffered crushing student loan debt and high rates of unemployment.
Lindey Loftin is part of that generation, but the 27-year-old is not unemployed. In fact, she says she loves her job, is well paid and has no college loan debt. Her employer actually paid for a portion of her education.
Round 7 of our Three-Minute Fiction contest attracted more than 3,000 story submissions. Tasked with writing an original short story that can be read in about three minutes, contestants had to include one character arriving to town and one character leaving town.
The judge for this round, writer Danielle Evans, has picked her favorite.
The Nazis marched into Paris in the early hours of June 14, 1940, leaving the French shocked at how quickly their country had fallen. Most of the populace watched and waited as swastikas went up on Parisian boulevards — but not everyone.
Journalist Caroline Moorehead's latest book, A Train in Winter: An Extraordinary Story of Women, Friendship, and Resistance in Occupied France, chronicles what happened to 230 women from all over the country who did not accept the occupation quietly.
This week D.C. Court of Appeals agreed with the White House that the health care law does not violate the Constitution. The court's senior judge, a respected conservative voice, wrote the majority opinion. Weekends on All Things Considered guest host Jacki Lyden speaks with James Fallows of The Atlantic about this story and others from the past week.
Today marks the first day that Penn State's football team played a game without legendary head coach Joe Paterno since 1950. The long-time coach was fired earlier this week as a result of a university scandal involving Paterno's former assistant coach, Jerry Sandusky who has been charged with 40 counts of sex crimes against young boys. NPR's Jeff Brady reports from Penn State on student and fan reaction after a bitter loss to 19th ranked Nebraska.
The Arab League voted today to suspend Syria's membership over its failure to stop a violent crackdown on anti-regime protesters. The move will increase the international pressure on President Bashar Assad.
The League said the suspension will remain in place until the Syrian government implements an Arab deal to end the violence, and called for sanctions and transition talks with the opposition.
There's no mistaking the protagonist of "Be Brave," a song from the new My Brightest Diamond album, All Things Will Unwind. Shara Worden, the group's classically trained singer, songwriter, and main creative force, makes it clear in the refrain: "Shara, now get to work/Shara, this is going to hurt."
The stands were blue at Penn State University this afternoon, as students and fans of the school's football team showed their symbolic support for victims of child sexual abuse.
Most of the more than 107,000 spectators at the game against Nebraska were wearing blue and many gave money to organizations that battle sexual abuse — their way of responding to the allegations that a former assistant football coach at the school abused young boys for more than a decade, sometimes on campus.

Gay-friendly Brighton Council "not complacent"
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
The younger gay generation will not understand the pressures of an illegal homosexual life in the 50′s and 60′s,, but there was a drastic change in England when the Wolfenden Report was presented to Parliament in 1967 with the upcoming result in 1969 of legalising homosexual relationships so long as the participants were over 21, and that sexual relations where held behind locked doors. Coming to The Stonewall Pub in Greenwich Village, the uprising of the Gay populace was a, because Judy Garland had died in London, b, the continual harassment by the Police of that time, having visited The Stonewall Pub over many years, it never had that atmosphere over the later years. Of course the Boots Saddles is still going strong and there have been a lot of changes there too. I think now because the Gay Communities in both USA and UK have more disposable incomes that we now all seem to pick and choose what we want to do and there does not seem to be any cohesion in having to go to gay bars, and the struggles for Equality issues anymore. It seems to be a sad fact of our Gay existence.
This article is misleading. The bar that is closing is not "the original Stonewall" but rather another bar that openned on the site about ten years ago. Back in the 80s this location was home to a bagel shop and I do not know what it was before that.The owners of the bar market their establishment as "the original Stonewall" but it is merely a bar that openned on a historic site.There are bars in New York that have been operating as gay bars since the time of the Stonewall riot (notably Julius)–but this bar was not one of them.
This article had my blood boiling! The writer says its because whites dont want to be around a black clientel. This is Nonsense! I am a frequent patron of this bar for the last 10 years and have stopped going because the so called gangster parties are not my thing. I dont care what you look like or come from, Im just not into rap music and the such. They started charging a cover, the AC is almost always off and the place smells really bad.. Not to mention the staff doesnt smile at all. And I am supposed to spend my hard earned money there because its Stonewall? HA!

Grand Jury Indicts Ray Nagin On Corruption Charges
Former New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin has been indicted on 21 counts of bribery and other corruption charges by a federal grand jury. When he became the city's mayor in 2002, Nagin, a former cable TV executive, promised to revive New Orleans' economy, and its trust in the city's government.
From New Orleans, member station WWNO's Eileen Fleming reports for NPR's Newscast that Nagin faces charges of "wire fraud, money laundering, taking bribes and filing false tax returns. Nagin is accused of profiting from city dealings.... several businessmen have already pleaded guilty to paying Nagin in exchange for contracts."
One of those businessmen is Rodney Williams, who told a federal court in December that he gave more than $72,000 in bribes to Nagin in exchange for help winning engineering contracts. The charges against him include "conspiracy to deprive citizens of honest services."
"Despite New Orleans' reputation for political shenanigans, Nagin is the first mayor in the city's history to be indicted by a grand jury on corruption charges," reports The Times-Picayune.
As Eileen Fleming reports, "Nagin has consistently denied any wrongdoing."

Aberdeen: Emma (Vander Wal) Wagenaar, age 89, died December 14, 2011, at Mother Joseph Manor in Aberdeen. Funeral services will be held 10:30 a.m., Saturday, December 17, at the United Methodist Church in Arlington, where Emma was a longtime member.
Burial will be in the Arlington City Cemetery. Visitations will be from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday, December 16, at Eidsness Funeral Chapel in Volga. Memorials may be made to the building fund of the United Methodist Church in Arlington.
Emma Vander Wal Wagenaar was born June 19, 1922, at Volga, South Dakota, to John and Wilhelmina Minnie (Boon) Vander Wal, one of nine children. She was educated in rural Volga schools, graduated from Volga High School and completed her registered nurse's training at Luther Hospital in Watertown, South Dakota. After that, she attended the University of Minnesota's medical school to become a certified nurse anesthetist.
She married Mark Wagenaar on March 28, 1946, in Volga. Together, they farmed near Volga, then near Estelline. Emma served a circuit of rural area hospitals. Mark and Emma had four children. Mark preceded her in death in May 1990.
Emma was the quintessential caregiver - a mother who knew how to make each of her children feel special; a grandmother who never missed an important date on the calendar; and a cook who never let anyone go away from her table less than stuffed with homemade breads, meals and desserts. Her family loved her homemade Yorkshire pudding and buns. She loved knitting and made many generations of her family sweaters, slippers and intricate quilts which they still treasure. She was a pioneer providing assistance in the operating room, on call day and night, regardless of the winter weather outside. She kept meticulous tabs on even the most extended family, and it is probably fitting that Emma didn't go to her eternal rest until every one of her siblings and her husband's siblings had passed. That would have been the way she wanted it.
Survivors include her children, Shirley (Jerry) Lacher of Aberdeen, Gary (Janet) Wagenaar of Austin, Minn., Steve (Kathy) Wagenaar of Aberdeen and Audrey (Joe) Bailey of Wasilla, Alaska; seven grandchildren, Jessica (Jeff) Andrist of Monticello, Minn., Cassandra (Kenneth) Christensen of Norfolk, Neb., April (Lucas) Ostermann of Faribault, Minn., Angela (Darrell) Ehrlick of Casper, Wyo., Case (Tess) Wagenaar of Grand Forks, N.D., Cole (Becky) Wagenaar of Fife, Wash., and Mark Bailey, Fairbanks, Alaska; six great-grandchildren, Alexandra of Monticello, Minn., Garrett and Ivy of Faribault, Minn., Mollie and Samuel of Casper, Wyo., and Caden of Grand Forks, N.D.
She was preceded in death by her husband; her parents; and eight siblings, brothers William, Arie and Bert and John Vander Wal; and sisters Nell Breeschoten, Johanna Rozendal, Gert Breeschoten, and Margery Nelson.

Facebook to Allow School Officials to Demand Students' Posts Removed in Maryland
I was critical earlier this year when lawmakers in my home state of Maryland enacted "Grace's Law," purporting to ban so-called cyberbullying — in this case, the use of hurtful online language as part of a course of conduct that inflicts serious emotional distress or harassment on a Maryland juvenile, apparently whether or not the speaker knows that the person distressed by the speech is a Maryland juvenile. I predicted that the law would run into trouble in the courts for infringing on much speech protected by the First Amendment.
On Tuesday, the new law took effect, and this morning Maryland attorney general Douglas Gansler unveiled a joint initiative with Facebook and the National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG) in which Facebook will create a new program for school officials, the Educator Escalation Channel — initially limited to use in the state of Maryland, presumably pending similar enactments elsewhere — allowing the officials to object to Facebook users' content. Per local radio station WTOP, Maryland school officials will be offered the chance to flag "questionable or prohibited" language. That is to say, they will flag speech that isn't prohibited by the new law but which they deem "questionable."

XTERRA ACE Big Canyon Post Race ReportBy, Jen Trapp, XTERRA Rep Going to ACE always feels like going home – we have been there so many times, and it is such a wonderful event with awesome people that it doesn't feel like another weekend of work. It is hanging out with buddies in the middle of one incredible event!! Located in the New River Gorge area of West Virginia, ACE Adventure Center is home base for the 7th Annual XTERRA ACE Big Canyon. From the first year with a multi loop swim in the little pond, to all the following years with a rippin' swim down the New River, the folks at ACE have always made XTERRA and the athletes feel welcome. Race morning began with the familiar bus ride to the swim start – yes, that's right, the bus ride to the swim start. We gather all the athletes put them on two rafting busses, and shuttle them down to the swim. And of course, it wouldn't be ACE without a slight hint of drizzle coming down! The first stop is the swim exit where everyone gets out and sets up their Swim to Run transition (yes, it is a swim, run, bike). Then it is back on the bus for the longest mile and a half drive ever. Everyone is looking out the window at the river to see how strong the current is and thinking – I have to swim ALL this way? Then once at the swim start the athletes stand on the shore of the second oldest river in the world and get ready to follow the kayakers down the river. No buoys here – follow the paddlers and they will keep you in the deeper water with a good current – it will be the fastest swim you ever did! First out of the water was Konrad Heller (37 – Fredericksburg, VA) in 22:20 – for a mile and a half! He was closely followed by Thomas Biddle (16 – Montgomery, OH) in 22:24 in his first ever triathlon and Mark Junkermann (42 – Richmond, VA) who finished up in 23:44. The women were just as fast with Whitney Johnson (37 – King George, VA), Denelle Grant (32 – Charlottesville, VA) and Antoinette Mesman (27- Blue Ash, OH) all coming out under 26 minutes in 25:08, 25:27 and 25:52. Next up – the run back to ACE – a 7 mile awesome course with a 1000 foot elevation gain. It starts off with a bit of a flat run along the river and over the railroad track (thankfully no trains coming!). Then you start a nice climb before getting onto the singletrack and scrambling your way back to the MountainTop. Where else do you have a run course that takes most people longer to do than the bike course?! The fastest split of the day went to Bob Horn (31- Brick, NJ) with a 1:01:02 – not bad! Geo Toomey (42 – Bethel Park, PA) was very close with a 1:01:59. Junkermann posted the third fastest split with a 1:04:29. For the ladies it was Emily Chaney (26 – Maryville, TN) pulling a 1:17:07 – on only 4 hours of sleep after driving cross country! Whitney Johnson and Denelle Grant also posted great splits with 1:18:04 and 1:18:39. Then comes the fun part – the awesome 11 mile mountainbike ride through some of the most incredible East Coast Single Track. This course rocks! And, it is usually muddy – even without rain. But today, was picture perfect – a few puddles, but just damp enough to let the tires grip and fly!! Chris Pickerell (20 – Harrisburg, PA) stunned the crows with a 56:44! Konrad Heller was close behind with a 57:06 and Bob Horn posted a 1:01:11. Sue Wagner (28 – Fayetteville, WV) bested the ladies field by posting a 1:11:27 – almost 5 minutes faster than any other woman! Denelle Grant posted a 1:16:17 and Whitney Johnson came in with a 1:17:07. So who came out on top? For the men it was Konrad Heller finishing the day in 2:25:42. Congrats! Bob Horn took second place in 2:27:18 and Geo Tommey placed third in 2:30:06. Sue Wagner used her amazing bike skills to finally take the women's overall crown after three years of trying. She finished up in 2:57:23. Denelle Grant took second place in 3:00:13 and Whitney Johnson finished up the podium in 3:01:24. Great day to all! |

John Maxwell has reminded me of the fine qualities of a good leader. A good gift to give to any aspiring young leader.
Love these! Bought several for Christmas gifts.
Reading this in morning while computer starts has been an effective way to regain a winning perspective for leading teams and mentoring coworkers. The selection of scripture and John Maxwells commentary reveal his extensive wisdom and hearts desire to teach his readers in a succinct clear manner. This daily lesson is just right to train and inspire me for my challenging career and father duties.
Recommend: No
I was hoping to use as a gift for men but the daily quotes are too long and the scripture type-set too small. The quotes are wonderful daily devotionals and perfect in book form but do not work well in calendar form.

Arkansas Fans, Get a Grip: War Memorial Stadium Tradition Not So Special
Posted: December 4, 2013 Filed under: Razorback football | Tags: Arkansas, Home Away From Home in college football, Legion Field, Oregon, Oregon State, Razorbacks, War Memorial, War Memorial Stadium, Washington State Leave a commentArkansas fans are right to believe some of their traditions are truly unique. There are, after all, tens of college programs named after Wildcats or Tigers or some permutation of Bear, but there is only one named for the Razorback. And no group of fans, no matter how much they chomp, stomp or damn eagles, has thrown out anything that remotely resembles the Ozarkian eeriness that is the Hog Call. Suiiii generis, indeed.
But in all the recent commotion over Arkansas' continuing pullout of War Memorial Stadium, I've noted a troublesome sentiment that what Arkansas has had all these years in its dual home arrangement has been so wonderfully precious and unique that losing it would present a blow the program may never fully recover from. Not so: plenty other programs split their home games between two stadia for decades. Plenty other fans made memories that lasted a lifetime in the stadium closer to their home. Yes, the other programs stopped doing this. But no, they did not fall apart.
To the contrary, many have thrived since quitting the practice.
These other programs – Oregon, Oregon State, Washington State, Ole Miss, Auburn, Virginia Tech et al – began dual home arrangements for the same, exact reason Arkansas started doing it in Little Rock in 1932: exposure, revenue and what today is called "brand building." Arkansas leaders knew if their program was ever going to become nationally competitive it needed to have more support from its state, to stop losing the likes of Ken Kavanaugh (Little Rock High grad) to LSU and Don Hutson (Pine Bluff High) and Paul Bryant (Fordyce High) to Alabama. So Arkansas leaders, like leaders at Alabama, Mississippi State and Oregon State, decided to take their team away from its rural campus and parade it in a bigger, in-state city in front of more media and fans.*
Oregon did the same by traveling from Eugene to Portland. Washington State traveled from Pullman to Spokane, while Ole Miss traveled to Jackson and Auburn traveled to Birmingham. Each of the programs pulled out of these metro areas at different times but one overriding reason is the same as in Arkansas' case – the campus' stadium simply outgrew the metro area's stadium. This especially came to the fore in the late 1980s as Auburn jockeyed to stop playing Iron Bowl games in Birmingham, as I wrote in a recent New York Times article: "Auburn leaders increasingly supported moving the game from the 75,000-seat Legion Field to the university's expanded Jordan-Hare Stadium, which could hold 85,000. Housel [a former Auburn athletic director] said it got to the point that even Auburn fans living in Birmingham were so ready to drive the 120 miles to campus, they would 'refuse to buy tickets to the Auburn-Alabama game if it was in Birmingham.'"
Every team, as you see in the chart below, has dropped its dual home arrangement in the last 50 years. And programs like Oregon, Virginia Tech, Alabama and Auburn have gone on contend for or win national championships since the drop. Yes, you are right: Arkansas has become unique in the sense that it appears to be the only program that is still hanging on to this practice.
But is that something to be proud of?
It's better to be proud of winning at a high level, a la Oregon, Auburn and Alabama. But hanging on to War Memorial hasn't recently helped Arkansas get to this level. Its function was served in helping lift Arkansas to the nationally elite level it enjoyed through much of the 1960s through 1980s. It will not serve in getting Arkansas to the level Jeff Long, Bret Bielema et al expect it to reach in the later 2010s and 2020s.
Hunter Henry Q & A About Recruiting Process
Posted: January 30, 2013 Filed under: College Football, Razorback football | Tags: Alabama, Arkansas, Arkansas signing day, Bret Bielema, Hunter Henry Leave a commentImagine you're a teen. You've just come home from your first date ever, and sitting there waiting with plenty questions about your night is dear, old dad.
Mildly embarrassing, totally understandable. Naturally, you expect the scrutiny to wane over time.
Except that it doesn't. After the next date, dear, old uncle waits beside dad. The time after that, you also find the guy from KATV is interested in where you ate dinner. And every time after that, it seems more media join the growing scrum.
Surreal, right?
A select group of high school football players actually aspire to something like this every February. For the best of the best, National Signing Day (Feb. 6) is a reward for years of summer camps, college campus visits and a courtship that includes Facebooking, texting and talking to coaches from around the nation. It's also a culmination of the intense media spotlight they've been under for months – the day when our favorite sport's stars of tomorrow make their final college choice public by signing a letter of intent, leaving all other wooers at the doorstep.
Imagine if every high school senior stood in front of her classmates and local media to announce both where she would be going to college and who was taking her to prom.
Nerve-wracking scenario, right?
A select group of high school football players strive to go through a similar rigamarole every February. For the best of the best, National Signing Day (Feb. 6) is a culmination of years of summer camps, college campus visits and a courtship that includes Facebooking, texting and talking to coaches from around the nation. It's the day when our favorite sport's stars of tomorrow make their final college choice public by signing a letter of intent, leaving all other wooers at the doorstep.
In Arkansas, many eyes will be on Hunter Henry, senior at Little Rock's Pulaski Academy. Will this elite tight end – ranked as the nation's best at that position by some outlets – choose the Razorbacks, to which he made a non-binding oral commitment last summer?
This would make sense, considering his father played center for the Razorbacks (and is now an associate pastor at Fellowship Bible Church), and his grandfather was an Arkansas basketball player.
But Henry's still open to other schools. He insists his recruiting process is far from over. Here's a look into that process, and the ups and downs it brings:
Q: You've been committed to Arkansas since last summer, but are still considering other schools like Alabama. Give me a sense of what you've been going through.
A: The recruiting process can be hard. It's a blessing, but at the same time I don't think people realize how hard it really is just because it's so stressful and you're trying to pick a place that is going to affect the rest of your life. You're going to so many different schools and they're all so amazing … you build relationships with so many people – just really good, strong relationships, talking all the time and it's kind of hard to say 'no' to some people.
Q. You've spoken a few times to Arkansas' head coach Bret Bielema and offensive coordinator Jim Chaney. What do you expect your role to be on offense once you start getting major minutes?
A: I really don't know. I'm not there, so I got to get on campus. Nothing's given to me. I'm going to have to work for everything I get and I know that. I'm working extremely hard right now, and I'm just going to continue to work hard… whereever it is that I go, I just want to be a great tight end and a great person.
Q: You grew up in Atlanta in a family that bleeds Razorback red. Once you started seriously considering which college to attend, was it difficult to put aside your Hog fandom to make a clear-headed choice about what's best for you?
A: It was. I would lie to you if I said it didn't. It was hard sometimes, but I did really good at clearing my mind. You know, it's a whole lot easier once you get into the process and you go to other places and you talk to other coaches, when you get out there and see what else is out there. I think that helps a lot and it opened up things just because I want to choose the place where I should be and the right place for me.
For First Time, Arkansas State Beats an Opponent That Had Beaten Arkansas
Posted: November 9, 2012 Filed under: College Football, In-State Competition, Non-Razorback football in Arkansas, Razorback football | Tags: Arkansas, Arkansas State, ASU, Louisiana-Monroe, ULM 2 CommentsNo doubt, decades will pass before Razorback fans forget Arkansas' 34-31 home loss to Louisiana-Monroe in its second game this season. It was the first time a Sun Belt team had beaten the Hogs, which led some fans to wonder if the Red Wolves could have challenged the Razorbacks this season.
As the Red Wolves have heated up in the last month, while the Hogs have continued to struggle, the question has been burning for months. On Thursday, though, enough fuel was dumped on to this debate to turn it into a full-fledged fire.
Arkansas State blitzed ULM 45-23, just another ho-hum offensive explosion in the most successful era in the program history (as a Division I-A program, which ASU became in 1992). In the last two seasons, ASU has won 13 of 14 conference games, but none was more historic it terms of potential in-state bragging rights than its rout of ULM.
For the first time since at least 2001 – when ASU started playing in the Sun Belt – it beat an opponent that had beaten Arkansas that same season.
Yes, the Red Wolves beat a ULM squad without an injured Kolton Browning, the dual-threat quarterback who'd shredded Arkansas for 481 total yards in Little Rock. With a 22-point margin of victory, however, it's unlikely Browning would have made up the difference to topple ASU in Jonesboro. His backup still passed for 357 yards, two touchdowns and an interception, after all.
Since 2001, Arkansas State has shared an opponent with Arkansas during the same season 21 times. Although Arkansas State has been more impressive against shared opponents the last two seasons, Arkansas still dominates any comparisons between schedules.
Of the 21 times, only four times has ASU lost to a shared opponent by an equal or smaller margin. Those instances are highlighted in red below:
UA @ Georgia | L 23-34 |
ASU @ Georgia | L 17-45 |
UA @ Ole Miss | W 58-56 |
ASU – Mississippi | L 17-35 |
No star quarterback, no problem? Arkansas-Alabama echoes Stanford-USC upset in 2007
Posted: September 15, 2012 Filed under: College Football, Razorback football | Tags: Alabama, Arkansas, Southern Cal, Stanford, Tyler Wilson, USC Leave a commentArkansas assistant coach Nick Holt has seen plenty go wrong with his team in the last couple weeks.
He's seen the Hogs lose their top quarterback, best cornerback and best two fullbacks. Then watched a Sun Belt team take full advantage with an upset that many consider the worst loss in program history. And even within the confines of his Broyles Complex office, he's surely heard something from the chorus of dire prognostications surrounding his squad as it heads into this afternoon's showdown with No. 1 Alabama.
Nobody outside of Arkansas gives the Hogs much of a chance against the national champions. If the Hogs couldn't beat Nick Saban the last two years, when it had a non-stopgap head coach and healthy star quarterback, what chance has it now?
Slim, sure.
But before writing this team off, consider Nick Holt has seen something else.
It happened five years ago, when Holt was coordinating the defense of powerhouse Southern Cal, a team which shared plenty with these Crimson Tide. USC was essentially the mid-2000s version of Alabama. Like the Crimson Tide, the Trojans had rolled through its first few games as favorites to win another national title.
Like today's Crimson Tide, the '07 Trojans had pumped out two national titles in the previous four years, had the game's consensus best head coach (Pete Carroll) and had just replaced its offensive coordinator (Steve Sarkisian for Lane Kiffin). Like Alabama, USC had also signed enough consecutive top recruiting classes, giving the program more depth than a Darren Aronofsky flick.
It's unlikely Nick Holt anticipated what would transpire on October 6, 2007, when the unranked Stanford Cardinal came to town. USC had waxed Stanford 42-0 the previous year, and for all the world looked as if it was going to demolish it once again. The Cardinal had lost its first three conference games while breaking in a new head coach and defensive coordinator. It stumbled into the USC game without its senior starting quarterback T.J. Ostrander, who'd been sidelined by a seizure.
What happened?
Kismet, magic, a whole lotta Luck before Andrew – call Stanford's stunning 24-23 win whatever you want to call it. But in the end, the powerhouse Trojans simply had a really off day – they gave up five turnovers – and the Cardinal played well enough to take advantage. The Cardinal defense, for instance, held stout on a critical fourth-and-goal right before halftime. Although its offense was outgained by 224 yards, Stanford converted its only two fourth down attempts. The backup quarterback came on to complete 11 of 30 passes for 149 yards, but played smartly when it counted.
Sure, there are differences between these situations. Most notably, Stanford head coach Jim Harbaugh was then a young up and comer making his first college coaching splash. Arkansas' sixty-three-year-old John L. Smith has been around the block once or eight times.
But, like anything else in life that must be played out away from the Excel spreadsheets and algorithms which make up our modern life, football's a fickle thing. Fickle enough that an unranked team can lose its top gun quarterback and still upend the nation's juggernaut du jour.
Nick Holt has already seen this unfold firsthand.
Could he again?

Just give me something to hold on
A piece of the world that won't go wrong
Is there somebody there I can talk to?
Somebody sharing the same view?
Facing the wind
One avenue that would lead to
A place on this earth, where we all grew
Longing for travel, we stood still
Watching a sky that was once blue
Facing the wind, facing the wind
Facing the wind, facing the wind
Each line we throw, gives us false hope
One ray of light, God, I can't cope
Thinking about what we all are
One human race that's gone too far
Facing the wind, facing the wind
Facing the wind, facing the wind

Comments about Engl GigMaster 30 Tube Guitar Combo Amp:
I own a Mesa 5:50 express and a fender deluxe they are no match for this amp.
The clean is is great the dirty Chanel awesome. Gain , gain boost for lead and plus master A and B to boost the volume and mid boost to get fat tone this amp does it all blue to rock very little noise even if I crank to max , I love this amp , best amp I ever own
It will be nice if they come with the foot switch . Need 2 Z4 to control this amp but is worth the money
