Latest On The Hurt Locker
The only good part was the trailer. Talk about a dragging boring movie.
I was pissed when I found out this movie won the Oscar over Avatar, but I had not seen it yet. Once I was The Hurt Locker I understood immediately why this movie won the Oscar for best film. IT IS AMAZING!!
The most impressive scene I choose is after he come back home from the Iraq. He couldn?t even buy a cereal from a shopping mart, trying to find the reason why he has to go back to Iraq. He justifies himself and can find his place in home. Basically, what happens in the movie seems caused by james who is addicted to deactivating bomb, but those are caused by the war
Worst piece of trash I've ever wasted time watching. The fact that this movie's director received an oscar is incredible. What a piece of crap.

4.4 out of 5
10 Reviews
November 20, 2012
I had a pair of these from a few seasons ago and I loved them so I thought I'd get a new version of my old pair. They took a little bit to break in, got some blisters at first. But after breaking them in I really like them.
March 07, 2012
I am already a huge FAN of North Face but these shoes are the bomb. They are beyond comfortable. I am thrilled with them and would recommend to anyone who likes to hike and work outside!!
August 17, 2011
I hike over uneven ground including wetlands/wet areas for my work and these boots are perfect. They are light enough to wear both in the office and out in the field. My feet stay dry walking through wet grass and boggy areas but they are cool and breathable.
Good, but not as good as before
May 05, 2012
This is my second pair of these shoes. My first pair was my go-to shoe for long daily dog walks, travel, and any kind of activity where I needed sturdy but comfortable footwear. After several years and many miles, I finally wore through all the layers in the soles and had to purchase a replacement. I guess I didn't realize that they had updated the shoe, but the new version is not quite as perfect for me. The major difference is that the toebox is more narrow, and after a mile or so, my toes feel squashed and my whole foot starts to hurt. I guess I should have ordered a half size larger. I usually wear an 8 or a 8.5. I ordered these in a 8.5 but wonder if I should have ordered a 9, or if my feet are just too wide for the new style. I still like the shoes, but I often find myself reaching for my (now more comfortable) running shoes instead of these.
Pros: waterproof!, durable, Cons: narrow toeboxQuality Hiker
May 28, 2011
This is an excellent quality shoe as far as I can see. Unfortunately, it didn't fit my foot. The shoe has a fairly narrow front, a wide-ish heel, and not a lot of arch support. My foot has the opposite shape, so I have to return them. It's a shame, because I love the khaki/red color, great cushioning and durable look of them. Was very impressed with the quality.
Pros: excellent quality, nice colors, great style, durable, Cons: not a lot of arch support, narrow front, wide heelDurable pair of shoes
August 16, 2011
I normally wear a size 5 in shoes but based on reviews I bought a these shoes 1/2 size bigger in case I want to wear thicker socks for long and cold hikes. It didn't long to break them in, I wore them around the house for 30 minutes and a week later took them to Grand canyon with me. Due to the heat I frequently ran under a water faucet to cool my core temperature down and within a couple minutes my sneakers were dry and my socks were never wet. After a long 7 hot hours i came out with only a baby blister on my toe probably due to thin socks. Definitely will wear it with my next hike.
good fit, stiff soles
July 24, 2012
These are well constructed hikers that fit my foot fairly well. The problem that led me to return them is that the soles are so stiff that after 2-2.5 hours of mountain trail hiking my forefeet were anywhere from very unconfortable to in screaming pain, depending on the surface at any moment. So, for those with well-worn or sensitive feet, I'd look elsewhere. Btw, in a store today that carries quite a few brands, including North Face and the Hedgehog, the salesman, himself a frequent hiker, did a manual flex test and judged them a good 7 out of 10 on the stiffness scale. He noted that they felt relative stiff to him, that the thickness of the sole means not much softening, and that for a shoe of this type that 7 is high.
Great Price for Goretex
April 11, 2012
I use these shoes daily for dog walking and hiking. The foot beds are really comfortable. I have used the NF Hedge Hog for the last few years. The III is a great shoe and I would recommend them. I wear them in all weather conditions and my feet always stay dry. Keep up the good work NF!!!
Pros: sturdy, waterproof, laces stay tiedThis is my 4th pair!
March 12, 2012
Love the shoes and am on my 4th pair. I walk rain, snow or shine three miles a day on a county road. These shoes never let me down. The sole provides great traction on uneven trails when in the mountains hiking or when walking down the gravel road covered in snow. I have foot issues and can't wear just any shoe. These provide great support with plenty of room in the toe box. I have recommended these shoes to many a friend!
Pros: room in toe box, great traction, Cons: noneGreat shoes
October 08, 2012
I've only worn these on the street, but I love the great support and heel cushions - and the fact that they are very lightweight. I need shoes that breath, and these seem fairly good on that count (I am in Trinidad where it's very hot). My feet are extra wide so I bought a half size above my normal size, and they are fine in the width. It remains to be seen how waterproof they are, but so far, I think these hiking shoes are just what I was looking for.

Is This Meeting Really Necessary?Owning Visibility and Control of Your Company's Meetings Spend
Register for this webinar
When it comes to meetings and events what's often missing is a sense that anything is amiss. Many planners look at meetings as one-off projects, while most financial executives have limited visibility into the actual scope of the overall meetings expense. This is your opportunity to take a more strategic approach. Join our panel of experts for this eye-opening web seminar on Strategic Meetings Management to discover how you can better control your corporate-wide meetings spend without losing the very real strategic value of your most important meetings and events. During this session, Bill Browning, a strategic sourcing and spend analyst from Aberdeen Group, and Betsy Bondurant, a meeting management consultant, will discuss:
The meetings and events category of spend is very large and very decentralized. According to recent Aberdeen survey data, meeting spend can account for up to 2.6% of a corporation's revenue. There is an immediate need to understand the scope of your enterprise-wide meeting spend so that it can be better managed and reduced.

It has been ten years since the post-apocalyptic isometric RPG Fallout 2 was released, following a year after the release of the original Fallout. Since then, publisher Interplay Entertainment has gone belly-up and the license was bought by Bethesda Softworks, a.k.a the home of the Elder Scrolls RPG series. The title has been in development since 2004 but work didnŌĆÖt truly start until the completion of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. While the lid on development has been held down rather tightly, we recently got a chance to get an extended look at how the game is progressing.
The representative from Bethesda went to great lengths to reassure everyone that the Fallout 3 experience will genuinely hark back to its predecessors, despite a major overhaul in certain areas. The opening of the game unfolds in a fascinating fashion, as it takes a rather bleak standing on things following a nuclear explosion (due to a war between the US and China) that wipes out a considerable amount of the world's population. However, numerous pockets of the population have survived by living in ŌĆśvaultsŌĆÖ. Fallout 3 centres on a character that is born into Vault 101, where occupants are born and die in the vault, and are never allowed to leave.
You literally start from the moment that youŌĆÖre born, picking out a name for yourself and your future appearance, through numerous preset and customizable options. Your mother dies at birth, so you are raised solely by your father, who is voiced by Liam Neeson and whose appearance is meant to resemble what you pick for yourself. The game then skips one year ahead, to when you are a year old. Here, you learn to look around, move and pick ŌĆśspecialsŌĆÖ for yourself, just as you do in other RPGs. However, itŌĆÖs done in a rather novel and innovative fashion. Basically, you look through a picture book entitled ŌĆ£You're SpecialŌĆØ and use the info provided to pick the skill concentrations you want.
The game also briefly picks you up at age ten, at age sixteen, where you take the G.O.A.T test to further pick what skills you want to have attributed to you, and finally, at age nineteen the game really kicks off. Your father, a highly regarded scientist/doctor in Vault 101, leaves the vault without a trace, and the vault overseer ŌĆśsendsŌĆÖ you off to look for him. So the story essentially revolves around the search for your father and the exploration of a world 200 years post-nuclear decimation. Specifically, itŌĆÖs set around post-apocalyptic Washington D.C, which is backed-up numerous though barely recognisable monuments.
Upon first leaving the vault, you're greeted with the signs of those who perished trying to get in and a momentary eye adjustment. From there, three things struck us. Firstly, the game was very brown, so it's well in line with current-gen standard. All jokes aside, the second thing was just how desolate the world really was and thirdly, just how far the devastation spanned. While apparently not as big as Oblivion, the world, as well as towns, dungeons and underground areas look like they will take a long, long time to explore.
Just like the Elder Scrolls titles, the depth and intricacies could be harped on about for days on end, so we are going to focus on some of the key aspects. Through out the demonstration, we were under the impression that Fallout 3 was something of a cross between Oblivion and Bioshock, which for all intents and purposes is pretty sweet. The gameŌĆÖs unique concepts and setting, the close relation to its predecessors and depth in what you can do will surely make the game better then the aspects that at the moment still look like they need some work.
From a gameplay perspective, most aspects are very solid. The emphasis on exploration and discovery are also punctuated with the interactions that you have between others in world and the numerous factions that are out and about. So exactly how you go about these things will determine your course towards the final destination. For example, if you are a jerk towards the sheriff in the first town youŌĆÖll likely visit, heŌĆÖll diplomatically blow you off. However, if you are polite, he will confide in you, which will have further implications. Your personal interface is now governed by the PIP-Boy 3000, which is upgraded from previous games and gives you access all your stats and inventories and what not.
Interacting with your environment is very important as well. Often youŌĆÖll search for water, though it will be contaminated by radiation. So you need to make a choice whether or not to heal yourself and take radiation damage, or go at it until you find another source of healing. At one stage, a radio signal was picked up about a man sheltering his family and asking for assistance. Upon discovery of their location, it was actually found that theyŌĆÖve been dead for a long time, but left a lot of items for you to collect. ItŌĆÖs this part of Fallout 3, the numerous choices behind what youŌĆÖll be able to do that drive the game.
A point of contention in Fallout 3 is change in perspective. The game is now played from either first or third person. From the above mentioned gameplay features, the perspective fits in very well, though the one issue that remains relates to combat. Relying on playing like a first person shooter isnŌĆÖt bad, though just like Bioshock, the combat doesnŌĆÖt excel as much as the other aspects in the game. However, there are some great additions. In particular, the fact that youŌĆÖll have to be on the ball as weapons wear-and-tear, youŌĆÖll get to build custom weapons and pick-up and play with whatever you find.
The game also has an addition known as VATS, or Vault-tec Assisted Targeting System. Here, players will slow down time and be able to queue up a set of moves on individual enemy body parts, for as many ŌĆśaction pointsŌĆÖ that theyŌĆÖre allowed. Once the action points replenish, VATS can be used again. At least the balance of the system looks to be fairly solid at this stage. As mentioned earlier, youŌĆÖll have plenty of options surrounding character customisation, so your abilities in and out of combat will be almost completely at your discretion. Again, itŌĆÖs really hard for us to emphasis the scope of this game in the limited space that we have.
According to the rep on hand, the build being played was rather early and pre-alpha. So even though there were a few minor glitches and technical hiccups, the game was still in better shape then what Oblivion was at later stages. Still, in a game of this scope, itŌĆÖs obviously a very difficult job to get these things spot on. While Fallout 3 has sacrificed some micro details, the macro scope of the game is hard to fault. While it may not end up being a visual masterpiece, it has the potential to provide a truly foreboding atmosphere.
With the development team behind Fallout 3, itŌĆÖs hard to envisage the game being anything other then great. The question then becomes, just how great? Fans of the original may still have their knickers in a knot over some aspects, but from what weŌĆÖve seen, the developers are doing their utmost to make the game faithful. A few minor issues concern us, but in the midst of all the exploration and depth that will likely be on offer, weŌĆÖre quite happy to let some of them slide. And though a massive amount of content is promised, weŌĆÖre informed that youŌĆÖll only need to dedicate around 25 hours to the actual story, so youŌĆÖve got the best of both options.

NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer has been wrapped in the outer nose cone, or "fairing," that will protect it during its scheduled Dec. 9 launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif.
The fairing will split open like a clamshell about five minutes after launch. The spacecraft will circle Earth over the poles, scanning the entire sky one-and-a-half times in nine months. The mission will uncover hidden cosmic objects, including the coolest stars, dark asteroids and the most luminous galaxies.
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., manages WISE for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. The principal investigator, Edward Wright, is at UCLA. The mission was competitively selected under NASA's Explorers Program managed by the Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md. The science instrument was built by the Space Dynamics Laboratory, Logan, Utah, and the spacecraft was built by Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp., Boulder, Colo. Science operations and data processing take place at the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena. Caltech manages JPL for NASA.

Yields about 1/2 cup
This simplified version of the famous Moroccan spice blend contains only spices that are easy to find in grocery stores. Use ras el hanout to add warm spice flavor to any stew, or try dusting it over a rack of lamb or pork before roasting.
In a small, dry skillet, toast the cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, bay leaf, cumin, allspice, peppercorns, aniseed, and lavender (if using) over medium-low heat until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Grind to a fine powder in an electric spice grinder and transfer to a small bowl. In the grinder, pulse the nutmeg into a powder (or finely grate it by hand) and add it to the other freshly ground spices. Add the ginger, mace, turmeric, and cayenne and mix well. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark spot for up to 6 months.

by winstonk, 12/17/2012I made my own ras el hanout last year using the formula shown in the Feb/Mar 2011 Fine Cooking and used it on the Spiced Rabbit recipe which gave it a nice depth of flavor. We may be making a new batch of the ras el hanout this year as holiday gifts. It is a very versatile seasoning.

A cat has absolute emotional honesty: human beings, for one reason or another, may hide their feelings, but a cat does not.
Ernest Hemingway
Honesty is the rarest wealth anyone can possess, and yet all the honesty in the world ain't lawful tender for a loaf of bread.
Josh Billings
The problem with capitalism is that it best rewards the worst part of us: the ruthless, competitive, conniving, opportunistic, acquisitive drives, giving little reward and often much punishment--or at least much handicap--to honesty, compassion, fair play, many forms of hard work, love of justice, and a concern for those in need.
Michael Parenti
We must make the world honest before we can honestly say to our children that honesty is the best policy
George Bernard Shaw
Honesty is the cornerstone of all success, without which confidence and ability to perform shall cease to exist.
Mary Kay Ash
Honesty is the cruelest game of all, because not only can you hurt someone - and hurt them to the bone - you can feel self-righteous about it at the same time
Dave Van Ronk
The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second.
John Steinbeck
I have known a vast quantity of nonsense talked about bad men not looking you in the face. Don't trust that conventional idea. Dishonesty will stare honesty out of countenance, any day in the week, if there is anything to be got by it.
Charles Dickens
There is no well-defined boundary between honesty and dishonesty. The frontiers of one blend with the outside limits of the other, and he who attempts to tread this dangerous ground may be sometimes in one domain and sometimes in the other.
O. Henry
With people of limited ability modesty is merely honesty. But with those who possess great talent it is hypocrisy.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Almost any difficulty will move in the face of honesty. When I am honest I never feel stupid. And when I am honest I am automatically humble.
Hugh Prather
Religion is fundamentally opposed to everything I hold in veneration - courage, clear thinking, honesty, fairness, and above all, love of the truth
Henry Louis Mencken
Each time you are honest and conduct yourself with honesty, a success force will drive you toward greater success. Each time you lie, even with a little white lie, there are strong forces pushing you toward failure.
Joseph Sugarman
There are people who think that honesty is always the best policy. This is a superstition; there are times when the appearance of it is worth six of it.
Mark Twain
Honesty is the most single most important factor having a direct bearing on the final success of an individual, corporation, or product.
Ed Mcmahon
If all mankind were suddenly to practice honesty, many thousands of people would be sure to starve
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

Dell Inspiron Mini 9 (910)
I bought this laptop to replace the company-issued one that I've used on personal excursions for a few years, since I'll soon be leaving my current employer. Portability and battery life were my primary concerns, followed immediately by price. I'm a programmer, but most of my work is done remotely by SSH, so power isn't a real concern. 90% of my intended use is a mix of ssh and firefox.
Given my requirements, and the fact that I'm a die-hard Linux proponent, I went with the Ubuntu version with a 4GB SSD and 1GB RAM. I got the integrated wifi and bluetooth modules, as well as the 1.3MP webcam. The wifi was the only requirement, but the other two were cheap enough that I included them as amusements. I typically leave the bluetooth soft-disabled.
I've seen a number of places giving different numbers on the maximum RAM this will support, even conflicting quotes from Dell themselves. Since you can order it with 2GB straight from Dell, and since the documentation I can find on the chipset says it supports up to 2GB, I'll go ahead and say that it has a hard 2GB limit on the one memory slot.
What's in the Box:
Laptop came packed in a conservative little box with a Ubuntu CD, driver disk and the power block (which is a conveniently small wall wart, like many cellphone chargers). The box was easy to get into and well organized.
Looking at the Mini 9n makes me feel good about the cost. It's small and sleek, with a pretty black "obsidian" and silver color scheme. The display folds open smoothly without having to screw with any latching mechanism.
The display is fairly low resolution (1024x600) and glossy. These were both potential issues for me before I got it, but I'll say that I don't really notice either of them now that I'm using it. The glossy screen is bright enough that I can use it even outdoors in the sun. Indoors I'm typically able to turn the brightness down to between the lowest and halfway marks to conserve battery life. The resolution is good enough most of the time, except that I have to scroll a bit more than I was previously accustomed.
No issues with dead pixels yet. Given how few there are relative to other screens I'm hoping that it won't be as much of a concern
The keyboard is my only real complaint about the Mini 9. It's sturdy enough, I like the tactile and auditory feedback, but it's so small. The 61 keys are (mostly) big enough that they don't pose a problem for my fingers, but they sacrificed the standard layout to permit this.
They cut off the function key row, so F1 through F10 are available as Fn+ key combinations on the home row. F11 and F12 are nowhere to be found. F11 is especially missed as it's the de facto standard shortcut for putting an application into fullscreen mode, which is pretty helpful given the low resolution.
The semicolon/colon key shrunk, as well as most of the other punctuation keys. The apostrophe/quote, which is normally next to the enter key, has been moved to the bottom row between the spacebar and left arrow. The dash/underscore and equals/plus keys moved between the normal backspace and enter positions. Delete/insert is to the left of backspace.
Significant to me, as a programmer, are the bracket ([) (]), brace ({) (}), backslash (\) and pipe (|) keys, which are conspicuously moved to Fn+ combinations also. Fn+U for {, Fn+I for }, Fn+O for [, Fn+P for ], Fn+- for | and Fn+= for \. These cripple my programming speed given their relative commonality in many programming languages.
Tab and caps-lock are about a pinkies-width, which seems to be sufficient most of the time and insignificant compared to the other issues.
Given all of these issues with the keyboard, my solution is to carry an external USB keyboard (I got my hands on an old Mac keyboard that works beautifully) when I intend to do any serious programming.
Is the keyboard comfortable? Does it come with a keypad? Does it get hot? Are the function keys useful? What are the function keys? (list them starting with F1)
The touchpad is small, which is to be expected, but flows seemlessly into the design of the wrist area. The problem with this is that my thumb tends to tap it pretty frequently when I'm using the space bar, causing random clicks and often text flowing into weird places it doesn't belong.
One feature I would like to see, which would probably be best done in software, would be to automatically disable the touchpad when an external mouse is connected. This would be a suitable workaround for me. Since there really isn't room to leave a buffer, I'm not sure of a good way to fix it.
Multimedia Keys:
There are Fn+ combinations for volume mute, down and up on the 4, 5 and 6 keys respectively. It's convenient enough for as often as I need them, which is admittedly not that often.
There are two LEDs on the front, visible whether open or closed. A white one indicates the power state: steady when it's on and slow throbbing when it's in standby. A yellow one indicates something about the battery. I've seen it glowing yellow sometimes and red when the battery is particularly low, and sometimes off all together.
Integrated wifi works pretty well. There's no hard switch for airplane mode, but there is Fn+2 combination to disable the radios (wifi and bluetooth). Ubuntu requires a password for this operation, so it's less than convenient when I need to do it in a hurry.
Integrated speakers are sufficient and about what you would expect in a $250 laptop. There are two, despite some places where I've seen it identified as mono. There also appears to be an integrated microphone somewhere, but I honestly can't find it. I can do voice chat with it, but I have no idea where the mic is.
Input and Output Ports
Left (rear to front):
Kensington lock slot, power connector, USB, USB, SD/MS Pro/MMC card slot.
Right (rear to front):
10/100 ethernet, VGA, USB, mic jack, headphone jack.
Nothing on the front or rear
Nothing abnormal. A large panel exposes the memory and integrated modules (GPRS, Wifi, etc) when removed. Two battery lock slides, one on either side of the battery.
The only air vents are in the big removable panel on the bottom and on the right side between the USB and mic jack.
Webcam Pictures:
Webcam is surprisingly good, better than the USB logitech quickcam I bought a few years ago. Captures decent pictures and videos even in less-than-perfect light.
Size and Weight:
Weighs about two pounds, dimensions are approximately 6" by 9" by 1" when closed. It's extremely portable (unless you count the external keyboard I lug with it) and conveniently fit into an unused pocket in my backpack-style camera bag, thus saving me from having to buy another bag and/or carrying two bags.
Heat and Noise:
Operation is dead silent as it lacks a CPU/GPU/Chipset/PSU fan, hard drive spindle and optical drive. Heat has been acceptable so far, except the one time it failed to go to sleep before I put it in my bag. It was on for about an hour with no way to dissipate any heat, at which point it was uncomfortably hot. It still wasn't hot enough to burn me, I was just concerned about damage. Seems fine though.
Battery Life:
During normal use I get between 2 and 3 hours of battery life from the stock 4-cell 32Wh battery. This has variable display brightness, wifi connection, bluetooth powered off, and a shifting load from an ssh client (extremely light CPU requirement) to a web browser with a few tabs (moderate CPU requirement).
I order the Ubuntu version, which I was more than happy to see. I'd never really used this distribution before, but I wanted to show the big boys that there is a demand for free software. I could load another distro if I wanted, but this is fine for me for now. It comes preloaded with 3.5GB of stuff, which sort of blows my mind. OpenOffice.org is a big chunk of that, but I use that. Much of the rest is smaller packages that I just haven't bothered to cull through yet.
I have minor complaints to address with Ubuntu, but this isn't really the forum for that. I like the way it handles the wifi connections quite a bit more than the way Windows does, though. The battery monitor is also quite a bit nicer.
Ah yes, the ssh connection bug should be noted, too. The wireless driver (wl) is closed-source and works fine most of the time, but it apparently has some kind of weird default set that causes ssh connections to screw up during handshake (detailed here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...sh/+bug/237894). There is a workaround that has to be redone after the wireless connection is established. It's a single command line, but it requires superuser privileges so I have to enter my password again. It's irritating and I'm not sure of a good way to automate it (though I'm sure there is one). I have a shortcut for it on my panel in the meantime.
Small, extremely portable, cheap, quiet, long battery life. Great bang for your buck if your needs are exactly the same as mine.
Cripplingly small keyboard, trackpad is awkwardly close to the spacebar.
I love my Dell Mini 9n. It does everything I expected it to do and more (found out it plays Youtube and Hulu videos just fine, as well as interfaces with my camera and iPod). I should probably have gotten a larger notebook for my normal use, though, to correct the keyboard issue. I'm curious about the differences between the Mini 9, the Mini 10 and the Mini 12; but I'm not likely to buy another laptop in the near future.
My price, as configured, was $250. Next day shipping and sales tax brought the grand total to $307. For $300 Dell reached my price/performance point and I was quite pleased to place my order.

So the light is on for Nebraska, but it's flickering, like one of those prison bulbs hanging down, swaying, from a string attached to the ceiling. When will it click for the Cornhuskers?
SPRING CENTRAL: Notes, dates, news and analysis throughout spring football
Soon, says coach Bo Pelini. We're close, he's intimated since his team capped 2012 with a 45-31 bowl loss to Georgia – a loss that followed a Big Ten title game humiliation at the hands of Wisconsin.
Ironically, Nebraska has flipped its script since the days of Ndamukong Suh, when the story was defensive dominance in the face of offensive ineptitude. In 2012, it was the offense that defined the Cornhuskers while the defense suffered multiple near-historic breakdowns. Attempts to reverse this trend will define Pelini's offseason.
But Pelini is right: Nebraska is close. The offense will be superb, barring injury. The Cornhuskers have the Big Ten's best receiver corps, most experienced quarterback and most underrated offensive line. But what of this defense?
It's young, which is a concern. It's also one step forward away from pushing Nebraska into the championship race. No, not the Big Ten championship race – the national championship race.
MIAMI: Hurricanes find motivation from within during spring drills
Spring dates: Nebraska gets started on Mar. 2 and plays its spring game on Apr. 6. Nebraska is the only Big Ten team and one of only three "national programs" (Florida and Georgia the others) to hold its spring game on that particular Saturday.
2012 record: 10-4 (7-1). The Cornhuskers have won at least nine games in each of Pelini's five full seasons with the program.
Returning starters: 13 (9 offense, 4 defense).
Five players to watch: TE Jake Long, OT Matt Finin, DT Vincent Valentine, LB Thomas Brown, CB Jonathan Rose.
Spring questions:
1. Can quick get quicker? It's been lost in the shuffle, but Nebraska's offensive renaissance under coordinator Tim Beck was one of college football's most impressive feats in 2012. Last year's offense featured a career-changing performance from quarterback Taylor Martinez, as well as breakout showings from more than one offensive skill player, but the real story was Nebraska's ability to handle a quicker pace. Already fast, Nebraska's depth and experience will allow its offense to increase the tempo even more in 2013. This group will be one of the nation's best.
GEORGIA: Like Nebraska, the Bulldogs are loaded on the offensive side
2. Yeah, but what of the turnovers? Well, here's the drawback: Nebraska's quick, dangerous and physical, but Martinez and Co. are also one of the nation's worst when it comes to protecting the football. The loose fumbles, the missed pitches, the botched handoffs – that's what preventing Nebraska's offense from reaching its full potential. That needs to change come August.
3. Simplify, simplify? With the defensive two-deep loaded with youngsters, it'll be on Pelini to simplify – and I hate to say "dumb down" – an often difficult-to-grasp defensive scheme. Will Pelini go against his own grain and make things easier to handle for the freshmen and sophomores pegged for major roles? He'll need to: Nebraska needs to let the young and inexperienced defenders loose.
Position battles:
1. Defensive line. You can pencil JUCO transfer Randy Gregory in at one end and returning starter Jason Ankrah on the other. What Pelini and defensive coordinator John Papuchis have behind that pair intrigues, however: Thomas Brown and Jared Afalava, two redshirt freshmen, could be dangerous situational edge rushers either out of a base set or in a tweaked 3-4 look. Inside is the bigger issue, with Nebraska in line to start or play as many as four true or redshirt freshmen. The biggest key? That redshirt freshman Vincent Valentine live up the hype and clog up lanes along the interior.
SPRING DATES: Start dates and dates of spring games for the entire FBS
2. Backup running back. The starter is set in stone – Ameer Abdullah could challenge for a 1,400-yard season – but after losing a pair of four-star running backs over the last two years (Aaron Green and Braylon Heard), Nebraska needs to develop depth in the backfield. (Also, Nebraska needs to do a better job allotting touches.) While sophomore Imani Cross will be the top reserve this spring, the Cornhuskers add true freshmen Terrell Newby and Adam Taylor in the fall.
3. Secondary. There's one star back here, cornerback Ciante Evans, and two players most assume will move into the starting lineup in Jonathan Rose and Charles Jackson. Rose will likely start at cornerback; that would push Jackson, a sophomore, into one of the two vacant spots at safety. What's the issue? Nebraska needs another cornerback to step up so it can use Evans in the slot, and Jackson would need a running mate at safety. Corey Cooper? Harvey Jackson? Mo Seisay?

Democratic Programme of the First Dáil
Democratic Programme (1919) |
The Democratic Programme was a declaration of economic and social principles adopted by the First Dáil at its first meeting on 21st January, 1919. The primary purpose of the programme was to espouse certain values of socialism. A text of the programme was first adopted in Irish, and then in English.— Excerpted from Democratic Programme on Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. |
We declare in the words of the Irish Republican Proclamation the right of the people of Ireland to the ownership of Ireland, and to the unfettered control of Irish destinies to be indefeasible, and in the language of our first President. Pádraíg Mac Phiarais, we declare that the Nation's sovereignty extends not only to all men and women of the Nation, but to all its material possessions, the Nation's soil and all its resources, all the wealth and all the wealth-producing processes within the Nation, and with him we reaffirm that all right to private property must be subordinated to the public right and welfare.
We declare that we desire our country to be ruled in accordance with the principles of Liberty, Equality, and Justice for all, which alone can secure permanence of Government in the willing adhesion of the people.
We affirm the duty of every man and woman to give allegiance and service to the Commonwealth, and declare it is the duty of the Nation to assure that every citizen shall have opportunity to spend his or her strength and faculties in the service of the people. In return for willing service, we, in the name of the Republic, declare the right of every citizen to an adequate share of the produce of the Nation's labour.
It shall be the first duty of the Government of the Republic to make provision for the physical, mental and spiritual well-being of the children, to secure that no child shall suffer hunger or cold from lack of food, clothing, or shelter, but that all shall be provided with the means and facilities requisite for their proper education and training as Citizens of a Free and Gaelic Ireland.
The Irish Republic fully realises the necessity of abolishing the present odious, degrading and foreign Poor Law System, substituting therefor a sympathetic native scheme for the care of the Nation's aged and infirm, who shall not be regarded as a burden, but rather entitled to the Nation's gratitude and consideration. Likewise it shall be the duty of the Republic to take such measures as will safeguard the health of the people and ensure the physical as well as the moral well-being of the Nation.
It shall be our duty to promote the development of the Nation's resources, to increase the productivity of its soil, to exploit its mineral deposits, peat bogs, and fisheries, its waterways and harbours, in the interests and for the benefit of the Irish people.
It shall be the duty of the Republic to adopt all measures necessary for the recreation and invigoration of our Industries, and to ensure their being developed on the most beneficial and progressive co-operative and industrial lines. With the adoption of an extensive Irish Consular Service, trade with foreign Nations shall be revived on terms of mutual advantage and goodwill, and while undertaking the organisation of the Nation's trade, import and export, it shall be the duty of the Republic to prevent the shipment from Ireland of food and other necessaries until the wants of the Irish people are fully satisfied and the future provided for.
It shall also devolve upon the National Government to seek co-operation of the Governments of other countries in determining a standard of Social and Industrial Legislation with a view to a general and lasting improvement in the conditions under which the working classes live and labour.

Bus Stop Seating Just Got Swingier!
Bruno Taylor modified a London bus stop with a swing (and, quite possibly, a MacBook Air ad). But just one, so you'll have to wait your turn or double up and have a stranger's privates dangerously close to your butt. As you can see, there's a cute girl on the swing, and based on the angle of her dangle and facial expression, she's having a good time. So, yeah, whee. Add a slide and a guy soliciting free candy, and you've got yourself a playground.

This was my first time at this particular salon and most likely be my last. I had been looking for one for a while and, due to its proximity and a couple of positive reviews, I thought I would give it a shot. I took in pictures with me to explain to the stylist the type of color I wanted as well as the style of haircut. She did not ask many questions (which I thought was unusual) and went to work. That made me a litt... view more

Hole Four
At 556 yards, this par 5 is the longest hole on the course, as well as the most difficult. It plays 526 yards from the middle tees and 423 yards from the front tees, but seems longer because it is slightly uphill. If at all possible, keep your ball on the left two-thirds of the fairway. If you're having trouble and you're not too far down the left edge, try aiming every shot at the right half of the water tower. The entire right side is out of bounds. The left side drops down into hole 3 fairway and hole 5. These lies usually aren't too bad, but they are blind shots to the green. Once you make the green you should be home free; this green is pretty flat.

Ideally you want a meal that is pretty much evenly balanced between carbs, protein, and fat. This helps ensure that your energy levels will stay up throughout the entire run.... if you just eat carbs you may find yourself running low after a while.
I liked to have a peanut butter with sultana sandwich a couple of hours before.
Another thing that might help is to not let your mind wander untill after youve successfully established your rythem.
ps under 100 minutes... thats a pretty good result in anyones book,
As to seperation... where i live its a 1 year minimum and 3 years minimum if the D is contended...I dont actually think thats wrong, Id not be ready to do anything within that year anyway...
I do have a question though, what do you guys understand under the term seperation... what is a seperation to you? What is allowed, what not...Im asking because my FWW's IC, our former MC, suggested to her in her last session that we should seperate... both of us were a bit flabergasted at the suggestion...
However, in the state where I live, separation is a non-legal situation. You are either married or divorced. My WW and I tell people we are separated, because we live apart, but term has no legal bearing here.
That's about the extent of my knowledge. I'm sure others can give more substantial descriptions.
BS (me) 47 WW 40 1 son 11 D Day 23 Dec 09 Admitted to Affair 17 Jan 10 April 08 told her I want a Divorce June 2010 Moved
I can't say how it works in other states. The funny part is that my lawyer just told me that we could sign the declaration and that the courts don't typically question it. wink wink included.
Given the information you have provided it is difficult to tell. Your lawyer has to guide you here. She may have been trying to figure out a way to really stick it to you and finally her lawyer convinced her that she probably would not get what she wanted. That she is just wasting time and money. So she chose to save the money and get to the D more quickly.
Your lawyer has to provide you the feedback. If he/she does not feel like you are getting screwed and that the agreement is fair then you are covered.
Legally you can be living in the same house and still be seperated, and if both parties agree you could sign a declaration that backdates teh legal seperation...
But thats not really what im getting at... does seperation mean to you still trying for R... still seeing each other... or is it mean one step away from divource...ie leading completely seperate lives (as much as any children will allow)?
so to clarify... my question is less about what consititutes a seperation legally and more to do with what do you personally consider a seperation...
For the purposes of satisfying a legal requirement of the courts you have to separate for a period of time. If you decide to reconcile you can stop your D procedures in court.
I guess it really depends on the two of you. If, right now, she is not in the game and basically ignoring your efforts for R, then I think you know the answer.
But if she is sitting on the fence, you are the one faced with the decision. Do you want to sit back and let her cake eat at your expense physically and emotionally?
In my case I did not file for divorce until I knew it was over. But at the same time I had agreement to also sign the declaration that we were not living together as man and wife for the previous six months. So my D was final three weeks later.
Again, my view is that the separation is just a legal requirement and has no bearing on your ability to R or D. This is really more a question of how much pain you can take in the hopes that she "comes to her senses" and also the fear that you might have that if you legally separate that you have no chance of R.
I also have to add that you need to consider whether this will be contested. If so, do you really want to wait three years to be rid of her? If you think this is going to be contested you need to file immediately and start that clock. Even better would be to gain agreement to backdate the separation to the exact date you can both agree that you no longer acted as man and wife. That might be six months ago or longer depending on how long she has been in her affair
I have not posted in a short while but I felt the need today. For the last 7 weeks I have been after WW to sit down and do an agreement with me so we can move onto the D. She has been telling me its in the hands of her lawyer and would not sit down with me. Last night she came home and asked me if I would be interested in sitting down and doing an agreement. She sat down and was actually polite and non argumentative. We came to an agreement, she told me she would submit it to her lawyer to type up. Then if we agree her lawyer would then file, the good thing here is she is paying for all the expensive stuff. I will just have my lawyer read it over. My problem is I cannot understand is why the sudden change of heart, I strongly believe she is up to something but for the life of me cannot think of what that would be. It is a complete 180 from her previous actions. Anyone else get a WW who suddenly turned like this?????
We both are back and forth on the separation. When I focus on WTF is going on in her head, and how I could be with someone who did something like this, I start to think I would be better off with some time alone for myself too. Then I think about our kids, and how I would feel like I would be abandoning them ... She probably gets encouraged by some bullshit St. Motherfucker comes up with, or maybe too overridden with guilt about how she is impacting me, and then she thinks about telling the kids ...
And in VA, legal separation is more than just no sex - it's no meals together, no sharing duties and chores. I have been in a different bedroom for some time, even before the affair. She claimed it was because her libido left when she was nursing our kids, but now it seems like something more. I wanted her to pursue counseling for it, with or without me, but she resisted for some time. I think she found that her libido returned with St. Motherfucker, and that has messed her up even more.
And, thx on the sub-100 compliment. Always wanted to qualify for Boston, but doing that twice seems awfully tough. Better weather, and more than 2 hours of sleep the night before, might help.
My WW actually answered one of my questions about why she had her LTPA by saying "because he was so nice and kind and good to me". When I asked her if she thought that it might have something to do with the fact that every time he was soooooo nice to her he knew he was going to get laid with no strings attached, she said "no it was because he really liked her and made her feel good." I asked her if she thought she was his only conquest and then I asked her if she thought it would be the same if he had to live with her full time like I do. Got no answer to that one.
Of coarse the story she tells me. I know what you are going through. Ive been lied to as well and cheated on. I was manipulated. It was never about the sex. I liked how he looked at me and how I saw myself in his eyes.... it was like hed do anything for me. I started talking to my XBF because he lived to far away to really contemplate sex. I was ready to move on and the (EA partner) helped me see that. Seriously.. If I hadnt discovered the condoms, that EA would be poking her now..... He too was trying to get in her pants, so of coarse she should dump PA and BH and come on over....
So, weve had it out. Ive called her out on her bs and wont tolerate it anymore. Now shes in the stage where shes trying to R without really addressing her core issues or full truth. Not sure how long I will last, but at least Im fully awake now.
Who knows if shes a high function BPD or a narcisist... I think most women work like that regardless.
"In no way should I have let myself be compromised by someone with obviously no morals or ethics".
I kid you not... I'm thinking of getting a t-shirt with those words immortalised on the front for my morally sound and ethically unchallenged WS to wear.
I think that image speaks for all of us.
Dude, I came to a new realization tonight. I was just thinking about my WW, and fantasizing about different confrontations we might have (yes, I know, I'm such a girl. I learned this shit from her.)
And it took me to a weird place, somehow. Regardless how I feel about us, and how she might try to tangle her affair up with the issues we had in our marriage, when I realized she has crossed a line she can't even justify, is when I realized she stole her good friend's husband, a child's father, and the husband of her own daughter's godmother (yes, it's complicated).
She's disgusting, and has done so many things wrong. I keep getting to this place where I feel OK about her. I need her out of my life. I have let myself become attached to her, but I need her away from me, and out of my life. She has compromisd my morals.
[This message edited by jasper at 8:48 PM, May 5th (Wednesday)]
I figure if you have come to such a realisation and are content in your self in breaking that connection, you'll have advanced that little bit further down that long road of recovery.
Personally, I think your morals are sound - you have no problem there. Never thought of someone else compromising one's morals....interesting concept.
My WS? meh... if she can't see the irony in her description of OM and their tawdry trysts, then I don't hold out a lot of hope for her or us.
[This message edited by Lotsa at 9:29 PM, May 5th (Wednesday)]
It was funny in our first MC session she told our therapist that I had a fixation with honesty, like it was something bad. I have always told my children that honesty and integrity are the most important things you carry with you through life. My WW would tell them to keep things from me and to lie to me so that I wouldn't get angry. What a screwed up, mixed up thing to do to kids. But honesty to her is a vice.
Hang in there Jasper! You've come along a lot farther in a short period of time than I've been able to do in a year. But then your wife was at least an open book compared to mine. I have never seen someone so fixated on privacy as the lady I lived with for 23 years. Later I will have to tell the story of our visit to the ER.
Me: BS 50 Her: WW 51 2 DD 2 DS Married 23 Years DD May 2009 Filed for Divorce Feb 2010 Divorce Final July 2012
As in my XWW would say something about the reality of our marriage and I would regularly get the "What the fuck" look on my face.
Cause she would just constantly revise history so she could feel like a good person. My feelings and the truth did not matter.
At the time it was beyond frustrating. Now I can laugh because I don't have to live with that anymore! She has to and it ain't pretty.
My WW would tell them to keep things from me and to lie to me so that I wouldn't get angry.
Yep, 20 years of this. Soon after DDay, FWW started telling me how awful a husband, stepfather and dad I had been. How she had to protect and console the children. I was awful because I expected things like bedtimes, homework before TV, help with chores...
Ths is on top of FWW stuffing all of her feelings. Is it any wonder I was not doing well meeting anyones' unvoiced, hidden needs?
Now, after her 4 year excursion, I am being told by the MC I am pushing too hard for her to be honest.
I recall 1 quote in particular that struck me.
Women often lie to their partners as a way of relationship management.
There are even *jokes* about this. Like a woman buying a new dress then keeping it on the hanger in the closet for a month. Then when she wears it and you say *is that new?* (intending a complement) she will say *No Ive had this a long time*.
Lying for women seem to come easy. And so it becomes all the easier to betray they H.
Why is it that the spouse who earns less is always deemed to have made career sacrifices?
Why is it that the monetary value of these sacrifices is always considered to be equal to the difference in the spouses' incomes? In other words, why is it that the monetary value of these sacrifices is directly proportional to the other spouse's income?
Why is there no pressure on the lesser-earning spouse to increase their earnings power?
Why is it that the higher earning spouse may not change careers if it lowers their income?
Why is it that the spouse who earns less is encouraged to be a dependent forever, through lifetime alimony (routinely granted)? In a state supposedly promoting independence?
What is going on here?

° Practice instructions this month will include guidance in the four Brahma Viharas. Insight meditation practice will continue to be offered and supported as well.
The 2015 schedule of Forest Refuge teachers will be available April 1, 2014. We will begin accepting 2015 applications at that time.
Please note
- A self-sustaining practice is necessary to undertake a Forest Refuge retreat.
- The teaching schedule may change without notice. It is our intention that retreatants will have the opportunity to practice with a variety of experienced and well-qualified insight meditation teachers.
Supporting our teachers
Here at IMS, our teachers are continuing the ancient Buddhist monastic tradition of freely offering the teachings while living in the midst of contemporary society. What this means is that they rely on the generosity of retreat participants for a sustainable income.
There is an opportunity at the end of your personal retreat to make an offering to teachers – this is known as teacher dana. At the Forest Refuge, where retreatants often stay for long periods, IMS supplements teacher dana as needed to provide an adequate offering.
Your contributions help teachers to lead a life devoted to teaching both at IMS and in other parts of the world, including communities without the means to donate. Your gifts also allow teachers to take time for their own practice, ensuring that their teachings are continuously enriched.
Explore, discover, learn
Practice generosity
"The freedom of personal retreat has increased my confidence not only in my practice, but a deeper trust in life."
