Think about it: Who needs chief rabbis?
06/23/2013 21:35
Rabbi David Stav, at least offers the promise of turning the rabbinate into a place less bureaucratic and more friendly.

To many of us the whole hullabaloo around the election of Israel's new chief rabbis is distasteful at best, and at times even nauseating.
The whole idea of a single rabbinate and two chief rabbis, is in fact quite foreign to the Jewish tradition and ethos. In fact, we must thank the Ottoman Empire on the one hand, and the British Mandatory government on the other, for this heritage, of which we seem incapable of ridding ourselves.
The position of "Rishon LeZion" – today the Sephardi chief rabbi – dates back to the year 1665, when the Ottomans ruled Palestine, and was held by the rabbi of the Jewish community in Jerusalem. In 1921, under the first (Jewish) British High Commissioner for Palestine, Sir Herbert Samuel, it was decided to appoint two chief rabbis – one Sephardi and one Ashkenazi, and the Chief Rabbinate was created, embodying a whole setup of religious services, including religious courts, which had existed already in the Ottoman period.
In the pre-state reality, the existence of a Chief Rabbinate, headed by two chief rabbis (both Orthodox, since there were very few Conservative or Reform Jews in the country at the time), side by side with non-religious representative institutions of the Yishuv, established on the basis of the 1926 Religious Communities Ordinance, was a manifestation of the communal autonomy enjoyed by the Jewish community under the British Mandate.
The decision to preserve the religious aspect of this arrangement after the establishment of Israel in 1948 was part of David Ben-Gurion's concept of upholding a certain religious status quo, which would constitute the basis for a semblance of peaceful coexistence between the secular and religious sections of the Israeli society.
It should be noted that Ben-Gurion had no intention of turning Israel into a religious state, and beyond the issues of kashrut in state and public institutions, the non-provision of public transportation on Shabbat, and a religious monopoly in the provision marriage, divorce and burial services, Israel was to remain secular.
For several decades the religious status quo, and the functioning of the Chief Rabbinate, rarely raised strong controversies or resentment. However, especially after the political upheaval of 1977, which brought Menachem Begin to power, and the enactment of the Chief Rabbinate of Israel Law in 1980, things started to change.
The fact that the rabbinate rapidly became an important bastion of power, through the ability to provide jobs to thousands of religious functionaries, increased the number of religious factors vying for control over it, and opened the door to both institutional and personal corruption, of which the current investigation against Chief Ashkenazi Rabbi Yona Metzger, on suspicions of his having received bribes, is a symptom.
If in the past people like myself were inclined to accept the status quo as a necessary compromise, even though on a personal level some of us suffered unnecessary humiliations, justified on halachic grounds, in the process of receiving the religious services that were forced on us, today we are increasingly disposed to view the reality as an irksome, bureaucratic farce, which has lost whatever anthropological charm it might have had in the past.
For around 300,000 immigrants who have arrived in Israel since 1990 on the basis of the Law of Return, but who are not considered Jews according to halacha, the rabbinate and its rabbis represent little more than a locked door, and a barrier to finding some logical way out of their impossible civil status.
The straw that has broken the camel's back in the eyes of many of us is the current campaign. Not only is it an ugly contest for the positions of two functionaries, who head an institution which provides services that we would not require if this were a truly liberal state, free of any religious coercion, but it transpires that at least some of the religious parties and groups that are directly involved in the contest represent communities (mostly haredi ones) that avoid using the services of the rabbinate, and use alternative services provided by non-state institutions.
These forces are involved in the contest, despite their communities' boycott of the the services provided by the Rabbinate, for reasons directly related to the economic and political power that the positions and the institutions have to offer to those who control them.
However, the most deplorable event connected with the current contest is the treatment that one particular candidate for Ashkenazi chief rabbi – the only candidate with even minimal appeal to those of us who despise the current set-up – is receiving from powerful religious circles.
I am referring to Rabbi David Stav, who at least offers the promise of turning the rabbinate into a place less bureaucratic and more friendly to those requiring its services.
The reason people like me feel empathy for Rabbi Stav, despite the fact that he is no more relevant to our daily lives than any of the other candidates, is the outrageous attack on him by Rabbi Ovadia Yosef. Recently the old rabbi (who himself served as a very popular Rishon LeZion in the years 1972-83) termed Stav a "rasha merusha" (a most wicked person), who poses a danger to Judaism – and a "klum" (nothing).
As a result of the flow of slanderous profanity coming from the revered rabbi's mouth, Rabbi Stav has been all but physically attacked by pious followers of the spiritual leader of Shas, besides being ostracized in both Sephardi and Ashkenazi haredi religious circles.
And why is all this happening? Because Rabbi Stav heads a body called "the Zohar rabbis," which believes in showing the secular community a more friendly and affable face – without making any compromises on halachic issues – and offers seculars Orthodox marriage services that have gained popularity in recent years.
Unfortunately, at this juncture it seems unlikely anyone will even attempt to introduce any major change in the status and powers of the Chief Rabbinate, and the alienation of large sections of the population from it is therefore likely to continue to grow.
What sort of change would I like to see, if change were possible? While I believe that the state should continue to offer and provide religious services to all those who require them, these services should be offered at the communal or municipal level, and in the case of Jewish services, should not be limited to any particular stream of Judaism. The Chief Rabbinate, in its current form, has no role to play in such a setup.
In addition, I believe that the religious monopoly on marriage, divorce and burial services should be formally ended, and that every inhabitant of Israel should have the right to get married and divorced, or be buried in whatever form she or he pleases. But that is already a separate, even if related, issue.

2006 Pontiac Torrent Reviews
Some road noise. Off and on stutter with electrical on the driver side window. A common problem I've found with Pontiac's. Car suspension/steering performs well over bumps and rough roads. No problems with the engine, brakes, heating/air, etc. The basic interior is sleek and easy to maintain, but does creek under rougher conditions. A good car to own.
Headlights could be brighter, engine is a tad underpowered, air conditioner freezes over, rear suspension hops when going over rough bumps. Nice car to drive. Expect fuel mileage from 16-18 city, and 22-25 hwy, depending on conditions.
Good fuel economy. Lots of road noise. Cheap plastics inside that creak and rattle. Premature brake wear. Engine is strong with lots of torque.

Site Map
Whether working with University resources or the assistance of outside funds, SU faculty, staff, and students must protect the rights and welfare of human subjects: in brief, no subject in a research activity may be exposed to unreasonable risk to health or well‑being, and the benefits of the proposed study must outweigh any potential risks of participation. To assist researchers in meeting these goals, the SU IRB has developed policies and procedures in accordance with Federal human subjects regulations and best practices in the field of human subjects research, while remaining sensitive to the unique nature of Seattle University and its other guiding policies. The IRB takes responsibility for communicating these expectations to the SU community and for providing clear procedures through which to meet them. (See Definitions for key terms used in human subjects research and review.)
The Federal Policy for the Protection of Human Subjects, known as the Common Rule, establishes regulations for all research involving human subject participants. Sixteen Federal departments and agencies have adopted these regulations, The Common Rule including: the Office of Science and Technology Policy, Dept. of Agriculture, Dept. of Energy, NASA, Dept. of Commerce, Consumer Product Safety Commission, International Development Cooperation Agency (AID), Dept. of Housing and Urban Development, Dept. of Justice, Dept. of Defense, Dept. of Education, Dept. of Veterans Affairs, EPA, Dept. of Health and Human Services (Office of the Secretary & FDA), NSF, and Dept. of Transportation. The Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP) within the Dept. of HHS retains general jurisdiction over these matters.
Institutions receiving funds from any of the above departments/agencies must establish institutional review boards to review and monitor all funded human subject research. Additionally, institutions must submit periodic letters of assurance to the Federal government indicating compliance with the regulations. Seattle University's Federalwide Assurance (on file with HHS) commits the University to abide by the Common Rule regulations. Moreover, Seattle University has assured the Federal government that it will review all research proposals involving human subjects regardless of whether they are funded.
NOTE: Researchers may not initiate any aspect of human subjects research (even recruitment) until IRB approval has been granted in writing. (IRB approval may not be granted retroactively.) Approval of proposed research is valid for one or two years upon written notification, as indicated in the approval letter.
Policies for Protocol Submissions
Be sure to read carefully through all applicable policies prior to completing an initial submission or post-approval request. Protocol submissions may be returned to the investigator for revision and resubmission in the following cases:
Informed Consent Policy: detailed information about the reasoning and requirements of the informed consent process, from obtaining consent through documentation.
Research Involving Minors (Policy): in the state of Washington, "minors" are individuals under 18 years of age. Minors are designated a "vulnerable population," according to Federal regulations; and frequently--but not in all cases--research with minors requires full board review.
Research Involving Prisoners (Policy): any research involving incarcerated individuals, regardless of age, must be reviewed by the full board due to their status as a "vulnerable population."
Research with Pregnant Women, Fetuses, and Neonates (Form)
Research Involving Adults with Decisional Impairment (Form)
Research in International Settings (Form): conducting research abroad often involves preparing for different cultural norms and settings; and therefore additional human subjects protections may be necessary.
Incentives (Compensation)
Under the IRS guidelines, any monetary compensation (including gift cards) are subject to tax. As a result, SU has adopted a policy to report monetary compensation to the IRS for incentives totalling more than $25. PIs who wish to provide incentives of $25.01 or more (e.g., two $25 gift cards would still fall under this policy) must obtain a W-9 form from all human subject participants/recipients. This policy was developed with the Institutional Review Board, the Office of Research Services and Sponsored Projects, and the Controller's Office, in line with common policies at other universities and institutions.
Review and Approval Process
If the submission meets the necessary criteria for human subjects research, the protocol will be processed according to review type determined by the IRB. (Please contact the IRB with any questions about review type.)
Expedited protocols are reviewed on a rolling basis by one or two IRB members, who evaluate the submission and provide feedback (often requiring some changes). Once the researcher has responded to any questions or changes, and the protocol meets the conditions for approval, a letter of approval will be issued by the IRB office. (Only the full board may issue disapproval, regardless of review level.)
Full board protocols must be submitted by the deadlines posted on the IRB home page to be reviewed at the next scheduled meeting. On all full board protocols, PIs should plan to be present for a short segment of the meeting in order to answer questions or provide clarifications.
Typically, one or two IRB members serve as primary reviewers when presenting on the protocol to the full board; however, all IRB members read and review all full board protocols. During the convened IRB meeting, the board discusses all protocols in the context of federal review and approval criteria. Any IRB member with a conflict of interest may participate in discussion but must recuse him/herself from the vote. However, a quorum must be maintained to take any voting action. Additionally, if the non-scientist member must exit or leave the meeting, all discussion/action must stop until that member's return. For any protocols involving incarcerated subjects (whether adults or youth), Federal regulations stipulate that a trained IRB member experienced with the prison population/system must be present as the prisoner representative.
All voting totals (for, opposed, abstentions, recusals) must be documented in the IRB minutes. The PI will be informed of the IRB's decision and feedback within five business days of the meeting.
Policies for On-going Actions Post-Approval
Continuing Review / Downgrade to Exempt Policy: If a PI will still be enrolling participants, collecting data, or interacting directly with the participants, a CRA must be filed every 365 days, or two years (as indicated on the approval letter). Lapses in IRB approval constitutes non-compliance with the Federal regulations, and all research must stop until approval is reissued. If data collection is complete and the PI will be conducting data analysis only, the PI may request to have the protocol reclassified as exempt, after which annual continuing reviews are no longer required.
Modification Request Policy: Federal regulations require that the IRB review and approve any changes in the approved research prior to implementation except when necessary to eliminate apparent immediate hazards to subjects. Modifications to protocols may be made at any time during the annual approval period. Many modifications are expeditable; but modifications that alter the risk level or significantly change the project's goals or methodology will be reviewed and approved by the full IRB (typically, at the next scheduled meeting).
Unanticipated Problem - Adverse Event Policy: A researcher must submit an Unanticipated Problem–Adverse Event report if an unexpected (in nature, severity, or frequency) incident, experience, or outcome occurs that is related or possibly related to the research procedures, and subjects or others are placed at a greater risk of harm than previously realized or anticipated. An unanticipated problem may warrant corrective actions in the research protocol or the informed consent process/document in order to ensure the safety, welfare, or rights of participants. Please read the policy carefully to see the required timetable for reporting UPs or AEs.
Closeout Report Policy: Prior to study expiration, a Closeout Report may be submitted when no further contact with the participants will take place and all data and/or samples are permanently de-identified. A Closeout Report must also be submitted if 1) the study is never initiated, and no enrollment takes place; and 2) a Primary Investigator leaves SU without requesting a change in PI. Following study closure, the researcher may not contact study subjects for further data collection. If the need for more data collection arises, the PI must inform the IRB immediately. The PI may request that the IRB re-open the study by means of continuing review, or a new protocol submission and review may be required.
Appeal of IRB Decisions
If the IRB votes to disapprove a research protocol, it will include in its written notification a statement of the reasons for its decision, based on specific Federal regulatory criteria. A principal investigator may appeal this decision by writing a letter to the IRB requesting reconsideration. At the discretion of the chair, the investigator may make such an appeal in person and/or in writing to the IRB. An appeal of a disapproved research project must be reviewed at a full board meeting.
After review and discussion of appeal materials and/or presentation by the researcher, the IRB will vote by simple majority whether to approve the appeal and allow the research to commence. If the IRB upholds its vote to disapprove, suspend, or terminate a project, the decision may not be appealed again. Nor may it be reversed by any administrator, other officer or agency of Seattle University, state government or Federal government. The IRB retains the final authority for approval of proposed research with human subjects.
Research Misconduct
Seattle University, through its commitment to academic excellence and ethical leadership, strives to promote a climate of honesty in research. The University has established a policy on misconduct in research applicable to all research at the institution.
It is the responsibility of deans, department chairpersons, program directors, faculty advisers, and individual investigators to familiarize themselves with IRB policies and procedures. The University regards any infringement of these policies and procedures as a serious breach of professional standards. The University's willingness to defend researchers in litigation depends on strict adherence to policies and procedures regarding IRB approval. Interpretation of applicability of IRB rules and regulations are solely the legal right and responsibility of the IRB. General policy questions regarding human subjects research should be directed to the attention of the IRB (firstname.lastname@example.com).
All instances of human subject non-compliance will be reported to appropriate University officials, and may be reported to OHRP, according to stated Federal reporting requirements and guidelines (http://www.hhs.gov/ohrp/policy/incidreport_ohrp.html). University faculty, staff, and students who are found to be in violation of IRB policies and/or Research Misconduct may be subject to sanctions relating to their participation in research involving human subjects. Depending on the severity of the violation, sanctions may involve a written warning, temporary suspension of the research, termination of the research, or the permanent destruction of collected research data. Actions taken by the IRB and the University also will be subject to Federal reporting guidelines.
March 31 (Mon.)/April 11
April 25/May 9
May 23/June 6
Submissions for EXEMPT & EXPEDITED REVIEWS may occur any time. Protocols meeting exempt criteria are typically processed within 2-3 business days. The IRB returns feedback for expedited protocols within approx. two weeks; however, time to approval may take longer depending on required revisions. (Turnaround may be slightly longer over the summer months due to limited reviewer availability.)
FULL BOARD SUBMISSIONS are due two weeks before the full board meetings; but we encourage PIs to submit as soon as possible to allow for pre-meeting consultation to streamline the approval process. We also prefer that PIs (if able) attend a portion of the meeting to offer any necessary clarification if the board has questions. Note: research involving prisoner research or research with minors may require additional review time.

Excitement was in the air at Catalina Island, Calif., on Sept. 29 and 30, the weekend of the first Catalina Air Show and Festival commemorating the 100th anniversary of Glenn L. Martin's historic flight to the island on May 10, 1912.
On that misty morning, Martin took off in his amphibious biplane from Newport Bay, climbed through the marine layer, and flew for more than 30 miles to make a perfect landing in Avalon Bay. Martin logged several milestones that day, including the first flight to Catalina Island, the longest over-water flight in the world to that date, and the first sea landing in history. A true visionary, Martin founded the Glenn L. Martin Company in 1912. It was the first of three well-known companies that would carry his name, including Martin Marietta and Lockheed Martin.
The fun began on Sept. 28 with the splashdown of Row 44's 1950's-era Grumman Albatross amphibian. On Sept. 29, spectators watched aircraft ranging from Clay Lacy's DC-3 to Frank Donnelly's Taylorcraft perform over Avalon Bay in an aerobatic "box" marked by boats. Making his own history, water-powered jetpack pilot Dean O'Malley reportedly set a world record for the longest distance traveled by a water jetpack, reprising Martin's flight from Newport Beach to Catalina Island. The island's tiny Airport in the Sky squeezed in approximately 100 aircraft, and on Sept. 30, airshow performers showed off their airplanes and signed autographs.
"It inspired me to do more flying," said one pilot who came from Northern California to see the show. "I sure hope they do it again."
The Catalina Air Show and Festival is an event that bears repeating, hopefully, before another 100 years flies by.

► Mouse dendritic cell development depends on PU.1 ► PU.1 is required for Flt3 ligand-dependent dendritic cell differentiation in vitro ► PU.1 deficient progenitors fail to express Flt3 ► PU.1 regulates Flt3 expression in a dose-dependent manner
The transcription factor PU.1 plays multiple context and concentration dependent roles in lymphoid and myeloid cell development. Here we showed that PU.1 (encoded by Sfpi1) was essential for dendritic cell (DC) development in vivo and that conditional ablation of PU.1 in defined precursors, including the common DC progenitor, blocked Flt3 ligand-induced DC generation in vitro. PU.1 was also required for the parallel granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor-induced DC pathway from early hematopoietic progenitors. Molecular studies demonstrated that PU.1 directly regulated Flt3 in a concentration-dependent manner, as Sfpi1+/− cells displayed reduced expression of Flt3 and impaired DC formation. These studies identify PU.1 as a critical regulator of both conventional and plasmacytoid DC development and provide one mechanism how altered PU.1 concentration can have profound functional consequences for hematopoietic cell development.

Abstract: The ATP2C1 gene encodes for the secretory pathway calcium (Ca2+)-ATPase pump (SPCA1), which localizes along the secretory pathway, mainly in the trans-Golgi. The loss of one ATP2C1 allele causes Hailey-Hailey disease in humans but not mice. Examining differences in genomic organization between mouse and human we speculate that the overlap between ATP2C1 and ASTE1 genes only in humans could explain this different response to ATP2C1 dysregulation. We propose that ASTE1, overlapping with ATP2C1 in humans, affects alternative splicing, and potentially protein expression of the latter. If dysregulated, the composition of the SPCA1 isoform pool could diverge from the physiological status, affecting cytosolic Ca2+-signaling, and in turn perturbing cell division, leading to cell death or to neoplastic transformation.
Keywords: ASTE1; ATP2C1; ATPase Ca2+ pump; gene expression; Golgi apparatus; Hailey-Hailey disease; intracellular membrane trafficking; SPCA1

I figured I would start this thread early. The seniors (and the rest of the players) deserve to play in front of a packed house next Saturday. The seniors have put a lot of work in to this program and have gone through a lot. This year, they could have just given up and not worried about the future of the program, but they kept fighting and working to make the future of I-State brighter. IF THEY ARE GOING TO BE THERE FIGHTING FOR US, WE NEED TO BE THERE CHEERING FOR THEM!!
Early forecast for next Saturday is for a high around 50 (according to weather.com). Show up and be loud!

Speedway Digest - Home for NASCAR News:
The last time we saw the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series was Saturday, April 20 at Kansas Speedway.
In that race, Matt Crafton passed Darrell Wallace Jr. with 30 laps to go and held on to the lead the rest of the way for the win. He celebrated with family, fans and teammates in Victory Lane, but six days later his life changed.
On April 26, his life was turned upside down and yet it was probably one of the best days of his life. He and his wife Ashley celebrated the arrival of their first child Elladee.
Sleep has evaded him since.
Aside from the normal adrenaline rush drivers get when heading to the race track for a race, when the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series arrives at Charlotte Motor Speedway for Friday night's North Carolina Education Lottery 200 (8:00 p.m. ET, SPEED), Crafton will be looking forward to more than just getting back on the track.
"I need to get back to racing, so I can get some rest," said Crafton, who took over first place in points from Johnny Sauter after his Kansas win. "I'm always excited to go to the race track -- but usually you go to the race track and you don't get much sleep because you're worried about everything, the night before the race -- you think about everything. This week, I'm excited to get to the race track so I can get some sleep."
In his ninth year with ThorSport Racing, Crafton is one of only two drivers this season to finish in the top 10 in each of the first four races. The other driver is Sauter. Aside from his win in the last race, he has a runner-up finish (Martinsville) and sixth- and ninth-place finishes.
Crafton has won three times, finished in the top five 58 times and in the top 10 160 times in 298 races. His best season was 2009, when he finished a career-best second in the points to Ron Hornaday Jr. Although he didn't find Victory Lane that year, he set career highs in top fives (11) and top 10s (21).
He's experienced success at Charlotte, where he won at in 2008. In 10 visits to the track, he's landed in the top 10 seven times and in the top 15 nine times. His only finish outside the top 15 was in 2011 when a three-car accident left him 26th at the end of the race.
His success at the 1.5-mile track is just one other reason why he's looking forward to getting back to racing.
"I'm super-excited about this Charlotte race -- even more than I usually am," said Crafton. "With all the momentum that the team's carrying into this race, I know the guys are still on cloud nine from the Kansas win and I'm up there with them, from the win and having our child. So I'm super-stoked about it."

Thanks for the reply Lucy. Yes, I was using the * as shorthand.
I actually tried your recommendation before posting :
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^((www|blog)\.example\.com)?$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
and it did not work at all. That is what led me to post tonight. My thought was 'if NOT www.example.com* OR blog.example.com* then redirect to the www version. Maybe I am too tired, but I don't see anything wrong with it, but it doesn't work.
Thanks for pointing out www.blog.example.com as I didn't even think about that... I want to take care of all possibilities to prevent any dupe urls.

Automotive Digital Marketing Professional Community
ADM serves Car Dealers, Automotive Marketing Pros and Internet Sales Managers
It might be difficult to sell cars using Groupon, but selling the services your Dealership provides would be a piece of cake.
A Subaru Dealer in Seattle recently did Full Car Details for half price while a Ford Lincoln Mercury Dealer in Kansas City did a Brake Inspection, Tire Rotation, Charge System Test, Multipoint Inspection and a Car Wash for 66% off.
The days of clipping coupons out of the Sunday Edition are coming to an end thanks in part to social sites like Groupon. Dealerships nationwide are using Groupon to provide group coupons (hence the name) on products and services. And there are a couple of ways Car Dealerships could use Groupon to promote their brand.
Automotive Dealerships can promote themselves to Groupon's massive email database by offering exclusive one day service specials, but there's a catch. Groupon's Group Coupon's only go live if a minimum threshold is met by consumers. In smaller markets that number would be around 10 while in larger cities that number can be much much higher. This means at least the minimum threshold needs to be met before a group coupons go live. And consumers are only charged if the minimum threshold is met.
If you think Groupon could work promoting your Dealership feel free to contact us today. Also, check out our Schedule of Upcoming Automotive Marketing Webinars.

The WHOLE Story Behind The Worst Rap Battle Ever
Posted by Break.com Staff on Jul. 27, 2013
Posted by Break.com Staff on Jul. 27, 2013
HIP HOP = Highly Intelligent People Helping Others Prosper
"Eeny, meeny, miny, moe / Â I'm da pimp and you da hoe" by Eli Porter
This is documentary about a viral video. They're obviously being
sarcastic throughout 90% of this video. The unity and friendship I seen
in this video is amazing. I enjoyed watching it thoroughly. I skipped
some parts but, overall it was funny, entertaining, and inspirational. I
support whoever made this documentary happen. I'm not saying best video
I've seen ever but, it was interesting. I don't understand all the hate
comments. I mean I do understand it's the internet so people can say whatever anonymously and I respect that right. What a great followup to a viral video. Keep doing your thing
guys. This was entertaining.
Why break? Nobody gives a shit about a North American pavement ape with a scrambled brain. Sure enough not 30 fucking minutes.
this was awesome now i kow the whole story or well part 1Â
i still believe Eli NEEDS A REDEMPTION BATTLE!!! Â
"the simple fact that it was produced and aired warranted it an A" - LMFAO the humor in this is amazin
I DID IT! I watched the entire video and I had a smile on my face the entire time. All the guys involved in the making of Eli vs. Envy are funny as hell. As for Eli, what can I say? I'm now a huge fan of his.
pretty messed up that none told Eli he had some leftover Nestlé crunch bar candy on his cheeks
This is the shit! Â Fuckin weak ass people can't watch a 30 minute vid? Â This is some funny fucking shit! Â LOL
Wtf! I fell asleep, woke up, and this crap is still playing! Don't waste your time.
I'd rather watch his web redemption on Tosh.0. I'd also rather stab myself before I'd watch tosh.0
I watched first 30 sec. Then I was done. There is no way I'm watching 34min of this crap!!!!

Things To Know About Silver Smoker Cookers:
The Char Broil Silver Smoker is a dry, offset smoker which uses charcoal or wood with wood chips for flavor, as explained below.
Secondly, research now proves "Smoked Meats Are Safe, Task Force Concludes." So, you can freely slow cook your meats knowing the process itself is safe and healthy. Read the report yourself.
Two Type Of Smokers:Vertical, water smokers.Horizontal, dry, offset smokers.
A vertical barbecue smoker has a fire in a tray or well at the bottom of the smoker. To keep the meat moist, a shallow tray with water in it is placed between the fire and the meats hang above it. The vertical water smoker is a simple smoker to use and very economical. One of its disadvantages is that the meats are more difficult to tend to, such as rotating them and applying rubs or sauces.

GM Search down to 10 Candidates?
Michael Lombardi of the sometimes reliable National Football Post is reporting that the Hawks' search firm has narrowed the list of potential GM candidates down to 10 names.The most notable absence, if Lombardi can be trusted which is always a 50/50 proposition, is Mike Holmgren. Lombardi:
Why no Holmgren in Seattle? On the surface, it's a very interesting question, but deep down, the Seahawks worried about Holmgren's ability as a general manager, which initially prompted their hiring of Bob Ferguson and then Tim Ruskell. Clearly, the Seahawks love Holmgren's talents as a coach, but they don't hold the same appreciation for his ability to run an organization
Reportedly, interim GM Ruston Webster interviewed for the full time spot yesterday. So, who else are the Seahawks looking for? Kyle Rota over at the Seahawks Draft Blog has a great write-up that's worth checking out, where he breaks down six of the other potential candidates. I wouldn't be shocked to see Randy Mueller in discussions either or, as I've mentioned before, Will Lewis, from the Seahawks scouting department.
