The EDGE Program contributes to a high-caliber education by allowing students a formal opportunity to create their own experiential learning project while developing a richer and more sophisticated understanding of honoring the merger of thought and action.
Preparing for, and completing, your EDGE Project is a process in which you can construct a hands-on learning project of your own and help decide how it advances your education. This process gives students at SUU a superior academic experience and is a requirement for graduation with a bachelor's degree. You can choose to connect your project to your major or you can pursue another area of interest.
Experiential Education (as in "to experience something" outside the classroom) is a process that gives SUU students an edge in applying their learning beyond the classroom.
This first class will expose you to the many different experiential education and engaged learning options available at SUU and fire your imagination for creating your own EDGE Project.
Use your imagination, curiosity, experience, passions, and academic interests to come up with a hands-on learning project that is uniquely yours!
Many students want to complete their EDGE Project by participating in ongoing programs at SUU. This page will give you a few examples of programs that you can participate in to complete your EDGE Project.
There is no class for step two but you should create your project and move to step three sometime before you've earned 75 credits.
You will start this class by choosing which engagement center you want to do your project through. You will explain your project and create a proposal to communicate your ideas to faculty who will help you fine tune and define your learning outcomes. Successful completion of UNIV 3925 will result in approval for your project.
You may take UNIV 3925 any time after completing UNIV 1010, but before you register for this class you should have an idea of what EDGE Project you want to create.
Samples of Experiential Activities:
After you finish UNIV 3925 (and have had your proposal approved) you get to do your project! The project can be connected to something that gives credit or it can be a non-credit bearing activity. The project can be in any field you are interested in regardless of your major.
After you complete your project you will take UNIV 4925 in which you reflect on your learning. You will develop different ways in which you can share what you have done with others. You will also get to showcase your final project.
Disclaimer: We ask students to learn independently outside of the traditional classroom setting. While SUU makes efforts to offer students safe opportunities, it is not possible to control or anticipate all factors in experiences related to facilities, environments, equipment and individual behaviors that may contribute to each student's emotional, physical and social safety. Please exercise sound judgment and counsel with one of SUU's Engagement Center directors if you would like assistance managing any issues or concerns that may arise.

Alvin Harper was the worst imo.
What is your point? I was wrong? Ok. You win. I was wrong.
Alvin Harper - bigger share of the cap, and left dead money in his trail. Not only was a bad player, he was arguably the biggest jerk in Buc history.
FRG is the most logical poster on this board. You guys just don\'t like where the logical conclusions take you.
So who would be the greatest free agent signing in history? Simeon rice?

15 Best Concealers
If there's anything worth investing in for flawless skin, it's one of these secret face makeup weapons
1. Keep from sight; hide
2. Keep (something) secret; prevent from being known or noticed
Why did we momentarily blast you back to a pre-college past with some SAT definition prep? Well, because life was an oyster then, wasn't it? No, no -- we kid. It was to argue that "to conceal," in its plain context and without the negative connotation that it's usually associated with (read: weapons and lies), is a great ability. Bags, blemishes, redness and undereye circles aren't your friends. But, face makeup, such as the concealer that allows you to cover them, is not only your friend, but also perhaps your closest confidant.
Skip ahead to see why readers think these are the 15 best makeup concealers.
To help you find your new best kept face makeup secret "friend," we rounded up the highest rated concealers as reviewed by Total Beauty readers. These consumer-favorite makeup products go above and beyond to keep your skin looking flawless. But before we "out" the makeup concealers that came out on top, check out these quick tips for natural-looking concealer application:
Makeup artist Patty Bunch says instead of globbing on a ton of concealer for undereye circles, combine a light, moisturizing concealer with your face lotion so it doesn't look so dry and caked on.
For the most natural makeup finish, apply your concealer before your foundation. After you hide your pimples and skin discolorations, make sure to blend a bit of cream around the sides of your nose, where even if you don't have broken capillaries, you often get unflattering shadows.
Now, see the 15 best concealers. You won't want to apply face makeup without them.

I am always on the look out for that holy grail concealer. Many of these I have heard of or tried, but several are new to me. I look forward to checking some of these out!
by HeathRene Friday, March 1, 2013 at 01:37PM Report as inappropriate
I use this concealer consistently and love it. I have really dark circles under my eyes due to severe allergies. I've tried pretty much all these concealers listed. I love this one! Make sure you use a good primer prior to application and it will last thru the day/night. The only drawback on this one I've found is the extreme price. Last time I bought it at Macy's several months ago it was 72 bucks, BUT luckily it lasts a very long time. I would also recommend that you set the concealer with tarte powder after you use it. This prevents it from feathering and rubbing off. I like Tarte powder because of the quality of their powder and they do not use animals for testing their products. The ONLY other concealer that even comes close to this one is DermaBlend's Quick fix concealer. It works almost just as well and is a third of the price.

text: I've said enough about my childhood on FSU for you to know that my parents didn't say much of anything about what I should do with my life. My father molested me so, if he were to have put it into words, I guess he would have told me to sleep with him because my mother was a frigid whore and we were in lurve. Or something mentally twisted like that. My mother did her best but her life was falling apart and she was saving herself. So she was doing things like taking me to bars when I was 16 and taking me to hash parties when I was older so she could pretend that she wasn't abusing drugs and alcohol. Then again, a rising tide raises all boats, so I won't discount the boost her efforts to right her own life made in helping me escape from my childhood situation. I told myself to get an education and get the f*ck out of there. My mother wasn't so far gone that she put any obstacles in my way and even helped me as much as she was able. My father continued to use us as pawns in his fight with my mother and his own sicknesses and contributed a grand total of $3000 towards my upbringing between the ages of 14 and 21 (and nothing after that, not even birthday presents) and tried his damnedest to ensnare me at every opportunity without much success. So, yes, people can "get out" of all sorts of situations and throw off all sorts of upbringings but my sisters did not fair nearly as well as I did given the same situations and the same upbringing. I think the key as to whether you can get out is two-fold... it's easier to get out of a neglectful situation than it is one where there is a lot of control and your environment is carefully filtered. I spent most of my childhood both reading anything I could get my hands on and watching anything I could watch. That opened me up to many ideas and expanded my world considerably. Knowing that other people didn't live like we did helped me get through many bad times and gave me the tools to escape. The other thing that helps is personality. I am driven and I am stubborn and I have supreme confidence in my own judgment. All of those things help someone break from authority. In fact, they make breaking from a situation like the Duggars inevitable. But not everyone is like that. And speaking of having supreme confidence in my own judgment, to answer your other question: The Duggars should agree with me because I am right and they are wrong.

I love the color. I ordered the one on the model. This is a really cute wig but its short enough that getting coverage is a little difficult. I would have liked an extended neck and just a little longer Sides. For me, I had to play with it for a bit. It doesn't have too much hair which makes it look more natural. I would order this one again.

I waited so long for arrival (2 Months). And was not able to wear immediately because of surgery. The wig is too SMALL. This is unusual because most wigs are too large for me. I noticed that now it is offered with an extended nape. It is too late to return. This was my first experience with Paula Young and may be my last.

Love My New Marion Wig!

About Me Minimalist
Comments about Marion Wig by Paula Young®:
Just received my new Paula Young "Marion" Wig. It's everything I hoped it would be. I have purchased several other Paula Young Wigs in the past and have been pleased with them but this has to be my favorite so far. I purchased it in the Pecan Delight color which matches my natural color. I'm able to blend in my own hair, all my friends are clueless that I have a wig on. Thank-you Paula for the great styles...keep them coming!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Love this Wig
By Patsdream
from Huntsville, AL
I bought this week and only had to trim a couple of places. I've always worn my hair very short. I ordered this in my natural hair color (gray+) and loved it so much I ordered a second. My hair is baby fine, thin (bad hairdresser over processed my hair & it came out-never to return). Most people can't even tell I'm wearing a wig. I comb my hair into the wig & pull it through the wefting.

It looks more real than my own!!!
By Pink

This wig gave me instant confidence. The color is a perfect match to my own. The style is similar. On the day of my first wearing, I received several compliments about my new "haircut"! It not only looks like natural hair, it feels like it. And, it is easy to style.

I use this wig everyday.I have recieved so many compliments about it.But the funny thing is, I am known to change my color and style often.So no one has asked if it is a wig.I just get compliments on how good the cut is and they love the color.People are used to me changing my color and cute. But as I have grown older I get tired of messing w/ it.So I decided to try a wig.I bought several but we're unhappy w/ them.I often buy clearance, or final sale so they could not be returned.When I saw this wig I knew it was theVery close in style to my own.Color is beautiful.Wig is very comfortable.Easy to style.You can finger style it easily. I did trim small amount off bangs, do not like them in my eye'sEasy to do.No one know's it a wig.Love it.No complaint's.

I don't have very much of my own hair anymore and this wig is perfect for me. I ordered a blond, red and gray one. Thought I might as well have some fun. I love this wig, have tried other styles and this is the best one.

One of the Boston marathon bombing suspects, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, attended the prestigious Cambridge Rindge and Latin School in Boston. The class of 2011 graduate was described as a "normal" person with "good grades."
Speaking with FOX 5 News program Good Day New York, former classmate Sierra Schwartz, said she was shocked to learn the identity of the suspect.
"He graduated with good grades. He was a good student in high school. Something must have happened,"said Schwartz who was also friends with Tsarnaev on Facebook.
"He would post photos of himself hanging out and the occasional Facebook status. The most shocking thing is that no one knew. We are a close-knit group," added Schwartz.
The wrestling team member was believed to be holed up in a house in the Boston suburb of Watertown on Friday morning.
"I thought it was creepy when I went to Facebook and his page was down. I was kind of weirded out when I discovered it was deleted," said Schwartz, a student in Washington, DC.
On Thursday, law enforcement officials released photos of the suspects.
Approximately five hours laters, Tsarnaev and his brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, carjacked a man in Cambridge after a shootout with a police officer at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, according to officials.
The search for the vehicle led to a chase that ended in Watertown, where authorities said the suspects threw explosive devices from the car and exchanged gunfire with police. A transit police officer was seriously injured during the chase, authorities said.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, was taken into custody and later died.
A manhunt was underway on Friday in Watertown where Tsarnaev was believed to be holed up.

Poster Magnet?
By Jim the Runner
from New York, NY
Please make a poster! I have been trying to find one since it was "ninga" and I feel bad every year, around the holidays, my girlfriend scours the internet in the hopes of getting one for me.The magnets cool and all but I don't often find myself admiring my fridge, and I have never thought to myself "Man, I wish they made this in a small, impractical medium that I can't really put on anything." Also the "White Cop/Black Cop" poster would be great, though Tracy Jordan is probably the only person who could pull both of them off in the same room but I would happily support the cause.

I had heard many things about this beer mainly good so had to try it on tap last night.Pours a gold/orange color with a big fluffy head,the aroma has big hop presence very herbal and grassy.Taste is very citriusy and tart with some late hop coming thru,very grassy and herbal aftertaste.A pretty nice beer but not a top notch Belgian in my opinion.

3.55/5 rDev -12.8%
A lovely amber pour with a lively white head. The nose is big on candycane sweetness and malt. Very ripe and sweet fruitiness in the nose highlighted by apricot and mango. The taste is simply sweet and fruity throughout almost hiding the hopiness. The sweetness is heavy on brown sugar, honey and lolipop candy. I can't help but be reminded of Halloween. The fruits seemed toned down...or, overpowered by the bold sweetness. The finish lingers nicely and what else...sweetly. The mouthfeel was good with a decent balance between lively carbonation and a smooth, creaminess.
Somewhat too sweet for my liking but still a after dinner/sipping beer.

Appearance Cloudy orange in color with a decent head.
Smell Strong orange in the nose with classic Belgian yeast. Theres also a bit of spicing in there. I can pick up coriander and white pepper for sure.
Taste The spices say BSPA. They step up big time in the taste. The yeast is present as well, but the huge story here is the gigantic, damn near overpowering, orange liquor and syrup flavor. This is like drinking Grand Marnier mixed with peppered vodka.
Mouthfeel Medium-bodied with little to no carbonation and a respectable alcohol sting.
Drinkability This one was creamy smooth and went down nicely.
Comments Probably too strong and alcoholic for most. Dont make this your first of the night, and dont make it your last.

Light yellow amber with a thin off white head. Carbonation is light. Smells of cereal, light caramel, a hint of citrus and booze. Taste/MF are slightly acidic, well hopped, very dry, and strongly alcoholic. Mild corn flavors are also present. I find the citric acid to be a bit much in this beer because it isnt balanced by any strongly pleasant citrus flavors. Finishes sweet and thick. Body is full. Drinkability is low.

Piraat Ale 10.5% 750ml bottle corked and caged.
Truthfully I didn't have a clue what kind of beer this was till I checked the site. Says Belgian Ipa but well...
A- Pours a beautiful golden orange fluid with massive two inch fluffy head that hangs around for the duration of the brew. Leaves a massive quarter inch thick head on the glass.
S- This smells like a triple... heavy Belgian yeast spice is first in the nose. Second is a light but appearent pear and citrus bite followed by strong alcohol fumes.
T-M- Has a very strong bite of warming alcohol that only leads on to the fresh bitter grass and candied citrus fruit. Last is a lingering alcohol and malt stickyness. Mouthfeel is smooth with the fact that the alcohol is so high in content. Slick and warming effect fall down the tongue letting it know a hell of a beer just went down.
D- Its drinkable but watch out or your ass will hit the floor. Excellent Belgian Ipa, Triple and Strong Pale Ale... in one.

Review from BeerAdvocate magazine Issue #26:
Certainly a beer, in modern times, that was ahead of its time stylistically speaking and was created more on tradition rather than trend.
Carefully decanted, it shows off a glowing bright golden color and a thick, sticky white mass for the head. Yeasty, hoppy aromas of ripe fruit, chalky yeast, faint mint, wildflowers, orange peel and cooked breakfast cereal. Smooth and creamy with a bitty medium body. The bitterness is there, but lands with a modest stance; perhaps a decade or longer ago this would have been considered bitter, but tame comes to mind, which is fine as it follows the path of the English IPA. Love the dry malt foundation as the mild tropical fruitiness plays off of it. A little biscuity middle to end and, without a doubt, finishes dry with a late entrance of warming alcohol.
Only a sipper after the first few swigs, the alcohol creeps up and lets you know it is 10.5 percent. Complexities don't follow the same path and some flavors are pulled to their ends. All in all, still a very tasty treat.

4.03/5 rDev -1%
A - Golden yellow, huge white head, tons of carbonation, very clear.
S - Cloves, phenolic, spicy hops, Belgian yeast.
T - Much like the aroma with plenty of clove, pepper/spice, with that Belgian yeast tang. This is backed up with a nice hop bitterness very different than most Belgian ales. The alcohol really stands out at the end.
M - Highly attenuated, lots of warmth of the carbonation and alcohol. Wish it actually had a little more body to stand up to the hops.
D - Enjoyable but I think some more malt flavors and/or body would help. The hops are not harsh, but almost stand out too much and don't seem quite balanced with the rest of the beer. Still very good.

A outstanding beer from top to bottom. This one poured a very nice golden color with a huge pillowy white head that stuck to my glass till the last drop. The smell was good with a touch of grass, a hint of pepper and a bit of bready yeast. The taste was exceptional with a nice sweet, not overly thick maltiness to start out with, followed by a very nice peppery flavor mixed slight hops and finnished with a great fruity aftertaste that was made up of a great pinnapple flavor. At 10.5% this is one to sip and savor for sure. Very highly recommended.

A real pirate's belgian brew!
It is a powerful ale, made to get you twisted quickly at 10.5 abv. And the sweet taste and inviting smell will make you get in over your head before you can even think that this is a beer to drink slowly.
Nothing lingers too long in the aftertaste, and it is a bit strong to be drinking all night, and it may lose points on originality. But for a hearty, manly beer that gets it all done right: I'm going to go to this one regularly.

330ml brown bottle.
Pours a hazy amber topped with a massive white foam head. Great lace and retention. Faint malty sweetness in the aroma with some grass and soft white pepper. Flavours are big on this one! Huge malt profile of sweet malts with a massive honey-like character and notes of tropical and candied fruits. Alcohol rips the palate with warmth and a sting of spice, then gives way to a smooth grassy bitterness and big dose of pepper. Prickly carbonation accentuates with a sharp edge. Some sappy pine notes lurk. Dirty yeast in the finish with a tea-like flavour, spice and lingering alcohol fumes on the palate.
One of my favourites. The incredibly bold flavours and massive alcohol warmth always makes this an enjoyable beer.

I truly love Belgian Tripels. They are incredible beers. I love the style, I love the uniqueness, I love everything about them (except, perhaps, the price). I though I'd never find a Tripel I didn't like. Well... I stand corrected.
First pour shows a gorgeous beer in the classic Tripel style. Fabulous golden honey body with amber and orange highlights, noticable floaters and a thick and rocky head.
Then... the aroma. What can I say - the first thing I thought was "dirty socks." The second was "funky over-ripe cheese." The smell is just - wrong to me. And damn is that smell strong. Yeah, I know it's the yeast, I know it's the style - just like I know that gorgonzola is supposed to smell like sweat socks aged in cheese. None the less... I don't find it appetizing to say the least.
First taste, well... to be honest on my first taste I simply couldn't get past the smell. So I then tried to taste it while holding my nose. When I did this - I found an interesting Tripel with a slightly thick and oily mouthfeel, solid fruits riding a good foundation of grains and an undercurrent of funky yeast - and culminating with strong vaporous alcohols. Tasting it while not holding my nose brought out the funky yeast flavors and made it nearly impossible to taste anything else other than the finishing alcohol heat.
Coulda been a contenda.

Poured an intense amount of head into my tulip, belgian bubble bath shooting out of the glass! Beautiful! Golden and slightly cloudy, great head retention. Great aroma of sweetness and fruits, lightly yeasty and citrus. Fresh tasting. Nice bite and alcohol taste to it which I do appreciate. The more it warmed the more I taste tart apples. Also makes me think of the taste of bananas foster eaten with a beer... 10.5%, which is always nice too! Very drinkable and one I have shared with a beer newbie who just loved it!

4.35/5 rDev +6.9%
Presentation: It was poured from a 330ml or 11.2oz bottle into a tulip glass.
Appearance: It pours a cloudy golden color with loads of tiny bubbles. The head is very big, thick and foamy with a creamy white color. Its head hangs on till the last sip and coats the glass with lace.
Smell: It has a sweet aroma with fruity esters like apple with tropical fruit and some nice funky Belgian yeast.
Taste/Mouth feel: Up front there are sweet malts with fruity apple and pineapple notes. A strong alcohol presence moves in and adds its warmth along with smooth spice (coriander perhaps) and a sour/funky yeast flavor. It then finishes dry with herbal/leafy hops. The texture is bubblely and well carbonated yet smooth from the full body.
Notes: This is an excellent Belgian Strong Pale Ale that is similar to their Augustijn Ale but with a higher alcohol presence.

Report: Guillen could face suspension
Pending Royals signee linked to enhancement probe
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Outfielder Jose Guillen, with whom the Royals have agreed on a three-year, $36 million contract pending a physical, could be hit with a suspension for his alleged involvement in the purchase of steroids and human growth hormone, ESPN.com reported Wednesday.
According to the report, the Major League Baseball Players Association is negotiating with MLB officials on a possible 10- to 15-day suspension for Guillen, who was linked to the purchase of more than $19,000 worth of performance-enhancing drugs from 2003 to 2005 by the San Francisco Chronicle.
But Rob Manfred, Major League Baseball's executive vice president for labor relations, says there will be no negotiation and that any discipline metted out will be determined by Commissioner Bud Selig.
"I interviewed Mr. Guillen. I've had an ongoing dialogue with the Major League Baseball Players Association regarding the relevant facts and circumstances," Manfred said. "We do not, however, negotiate discipline. The Commissioner will determine what discipline, if any, is appropriate when I conclude my investigation."
The Royals went ahead with their pursuit of Guillen, a power-hitting outfielder, despite reports linking him to the investigation.
Royals general manager Dayton Moore was asked Tuesday, before the ESPN.com story emerged, about a possible suspension for Guillen.
Moore said he couldn't comment directly on the matter but added: "All of our research surrounding this particular player has allowed us, obviously, to feel comfortable in offering him a multi-year deal."
Guillen was quoted by ESPNdeportes.com on Tuesday as saying: "We told the Commissioner's Office my version of this whole affair, which in some ways has been handled with some errors in the media."
According to the Chronicle report, Guillen made the purchases from a Florida clinic between May 2002-June 2005. MLB banned human growth hormone in January 2005.
Dick Kaegel is a reporter for MLB.com. This story was not subject to the approval of Major League Baseball or its clubs.

The video of a kindhearted man celebrating a homeless woman's birthday with a makeshift party on the street has gone viral.
They speak in Spanish. But smiles and laughter are universal across cultures, and it's not hard to interpret Andrea Chaparro's joy as she receives her surprise from Emilio Aparicio Rodriguez.
In the video dated Dec. 17, Aparicio approaches Chaparro, who sits on a sidewalk with a dog, and gingerly fastens on a party hat. He then lights a candle on a chocolate frosted donut.
A group gathers for a round of "Happy Birthday," shaking hands with Chaparro as they sing. At the end, Aparicio hands her a yellow balloon with instructions to make a wish and let it go, according to LiveLeak.
"I don't know what to wish for," Chaparro says, according to LiveLeak. Rodriguez responds, "Anything you want!"
In an altruistic move that makes her special day even more heartwarming, she releases the balloon and reportedly says, "Let everyone be happy!"

Driver's Helping Hand
A Russian dashboard camera recently caught a heartwarming act of kindness that took place on a bustling street.

Fallen Soldier's Tribute
To honor the memory of a soldier who was killed in action, Jeff Beurline corded off a special spot at his local bar in Connecticut for Lt. Michael P. Murphy. Beurline bought Murphy -- or "Murph," as he was known by friends -- a Guinness and propped a reserved sign on the beer alongside an American flag. The bartender not only agreed to pour random strangers a Guinness throughout the day, but also offered to pay the costs. Read Beurline's account of the act of kindness in his post on Seal of Honor's Facebook page. (Image via Facebook, Jeff Beurline).
Officer's Final Act
A McDonald's surveillance camera caught a San Diego police officer's small -- but powerful -- act of kindness on tape. What makes the moment special is not the act itself, but that it happened mere minutes before the officer, Jeremy Henwood, was gunned down in his patrol car.
Texas A&M Students' Silent Vigil
To protect the family of Lt. Col. Roy Tisdale from anti-gay protesters on the day of his funeral, Texas A&M students and alumni donned maroon and formed a human wall. Westboro Baptist Church members, who often stage demonstrations military funerals, were planning to stage a protest outside Tisdale's funeral, but never showed up. Fortunately, an estimated 650 people in maroon were there to make sure the family could mourn in peace. (Image via Facebook, Leslie Mott)
Sara Tucholsky's Unusual Home Run
Sara Tucholsky, a softball player for Western Oregon University, scored a three-run homerun for the first time in her college career in a game against Central Washington University. But while touching first base, she injured her knee. The rules stated that none of her teammates could assist her. So instead, two players from the opposing team -- Mallory Holtman and Liz Wallace -- carried Tucholsky to each base. All three players received a standing ovation.
Disabled Fan's Helping Hand
Wheelchair-bound Patrick Connelly began to cry when he couldn't see over the standing fans at a Blake Shelton concert. His mother, Cheryl Connelly, and her daughter, tried to pick Patrick up so he could see, but were unable to hold his weight for long in the sweltering heat. It wasn't until two strangers hoisted Patrick up and held him aloft for a half-hour that Patrick was able to finally enjoy the concert.
A Young Fan's Act Of Generosity
It was the fourth inning of the Milwaukee Brewers vs. Arizona Diamondbacks game. A player tossed a ball into the stands and 12-year-old Ian McMillan ended up catching it while a younger baseball fan cried on the sidelines.

In fact, Kirouac relies on kind strangers to provide free room and board each night.
Terminally Ill Man's Letters Of Support
Sean O'Connor posted a call-out on Reddit on behalf of his uncle Scott Widak, who was terminally ill and had Down syndrome. "He is currently bedridden and living out his last days at home with my 85 year old grandmother. One of his favorite things to do is open mail...anyone feel like sending him a letter or card?" O'Connor wrote in a post. Within days, Reddit users sent hundreds of letters and gifts to the bedridden 47-year-old. O'Connor returned to Reddit in July following his uncle's death to thank users for reaching out.
Neighbor's Lemonade Fundraiser
When 8-year-old Johnny Karlinchak saw his neighbor's house crushed by a 60-foot-oak, he ran to his piggy bank and emptied its contents into his neighbor's hands. Unfortunately, the $1.25 would not cover Elissa Myers' $500 deductible so Johnny took to what he knew best -- selling lemonade -- to cover the deficit. (Image via Getty)
Homeless Man's Free Lunch

The state of Mississippi is home to two of the SEC's top three returning quarterbacks.
Welcome to Raycom News Network's live blog from SEC Media Days in Hoover, AL.
(RNN) – Well, last week wasn't the week that destroys your faith in humanity. It was this one.
I realize this is going to be like walking through a haunted house – it's dark, there's strange noises and random unexplained screams are coming from places you can't identify (like, you know, Missouri). Just calm down and stay close to me, and I'll walk you through it.
It will be a little scary at first, but I promise you'll be OK. The only difference is these scary things are real.
Here is the weekly list of what we learned from watching SEC games in Week 8.
1. The SEC East is a trash fire. There are only two teams from this division playing with consistency: Kentucky, which is as bad as expected, and Missouri, who nobody trusts to be as good as it has been.
Florida's juggernaut defense gave up 500 yards, Georgia surrendered a two-touchdown lead in the fourth quarter and Tennessee's kicker called his shot on an upset of South Carolina. Additionally, Vanderbilt is a force again, South Carolina is in complete disarray and I can't believe what these next words say, but Missouri controls its own destiny for the SEC championship game.
In fact, Missouri can lose a game and still control its own destiny. Even the SEC West got in on the act with Auburn toppling Johnny Offense and Ole Miss putting LSU's championship dreams on life support.
The only teams ranked higher than their opponents who won were Alabama and Missouri. What kind of world are we living in?
2. Missouri might actually be the best team in the SEC East. Previously, Missouri just looked competent and like it might try to make some noise, but now it looks like there's nothing standing in the Tigers' way to keep them from making a trip to Atlanta at the end of the season.
It's entirely possible (read: likely) the team in the SEC championship game representing the SEC East is from a place further west than the team representing the SEC West. Now, make your head stop spinning and keep reading. The only teams in the SEC further west than Missouri are Arkansas and Texas A&M. The Aggies took their second conference loss of the season this week (more on this in a minute), and Arkansas State has a better chance of making the title game than Arkansas.
The Tigers still have some work to do to clinch a berth because they've only played three SEC games, but their systematic 36-17 dismantling of Florida without their best quarterback is the sign of a true contender. Not only is Missouri the only undefeated team in the SEC East, but it's the only team without two conference losses.
3. Johnny Manziel is winless at home against the state of Alabama. What a difference a year makes. Last season, Manziel traveled to the Heart of Dixie and won both times. This season, both Alabama and Auburn visited College Station and both pulled out close wins in dramatic fashion in his yard.
After a 49-42 loss to Alabama and a 45-41 loss to Auburn, the Aggies are looking like they could use a 13th man right about now. Johnny Offense delivered his characteristic day, throwing for 454 yards and four touchdowns and rushing for 48 yards and another score.
But his penchant for throwing stupid passes caught up with him as Auburn picked off two passes that he never should have thrown and for the second straight week he suffered an injury that seemed like it might be bad but wasn't.
What was bad was the loss. A&M was already at the mercy of other teams, needing Alabama to drop two games to qualify for the SEC championship game, but now the Aggies need Auburn to drop two more games and Alabama to lose three.
It's safe to say that won't happen. Get ready for another trip to the Cotton Bowl, unless Vanderbilt, LSU or Missouri have something to say about it.
4. You will need some cocktails to get through the "Cocktail Party." It's always fun to joke about how Mark Richt is on the hot seat and how much he's hated and might get fired. That is, fun to joke about until it might actually be true. On the other side, Will Muschamp has gone from being the new Texas head coach to being compared to Lane Kiffin. Oof.
If you have a ticket to the World's Largest Outdoor (Cocktail) Party in two weeks, congratulations you have a chance to be a college athlete. Following a 31-27 loss to Vanderbilt and a 36-17 loss to Missouri, Georgia and Florida are so damaged and deflated right now that some random guy from Section 106 playing running back might be an improvement.
You know who's really disappointed about this game? CBS. The Georgia-Florida game is locked into CBS' 3:30 p.m. Eastern time slot before the first game is ever played. Every year at least one and perhaps both teams are looking for a win to propel them to the SEC championship game. This year it might be a battle for who doesn't have to go back to Jacksonville for the Gator Bowl.
But it still looks like it will be the best game of the day. Its competition is Arkansas trying to not lose its sixth straight against Auburn, wildly inconsistent South Carolina facing wildly inconsistent Mississippi State, Missouri trying to inch closer to SEC acceptance against Tennessee, Texas A&M going for a scoring record against UTEP and Kentucky possibly losing to Alabama State.
Both teams will be coming off bye weeks and trying not to lose their third game in a row. If you have something else to do that afternoon – like jabbing your eyes out with an ice pick – feel free to do so.1
5. Steve Spurrier is still capable of outcoaching himself. It took a few weeks, but it happened. More reliable than his visor tossing and jab taking is Spurrier's ability to just straight up forget the simplest of things.
Leading by 1, South Carolina lined up as if to go for a risky fourth down conversion. Making it would likely seal a win. Missing it would give Tennessee good field position. Spurrier didn't like what he saw, so he called timeout. No big deal, right? Right, unless the Gamecocks line up to go for it again and call another timeout, but there's no way they would actually do that, right? WRONG!
After wasting – yes, wasting – two timeouts, South Carolina punted. Tennessee went down and set up a game-winning field goal and South Carolina didn't attempt to use its remaining timeout to stop the clock and give themselves a chance. Then they used it with 3 seconds left when Tennessee was going to use theirs and didn't have the opportunity to ice the kicker.2 Tennessee then won 23-21.
However, Jadeveon Clowney made a tackle that got people saying it looked like the one he made in the Outback Bowl, even though it didn't, so that's … something?
6. Gus Malzahn is a wizard. There is literally no other explanation for Auburn's complete reversal from a year ago. In a terribly ironic twist, Saturday's win over A&M illustrates just how awful Gene Chizik was.
Last season – at home, mind you – Auburn lost 63-21 to Texas A&M. This also perfectly illustrates why the SEC is the best conference in college football. A swing from national championship to 3-8 to now 6-1 is unfathomable, but it shows the talent that exists in the conference. There are no off days.
It rarely ever happens that a team would go from winless in the conference to a legitimate contender for the conference championship game, but that's exactly what Auburn has done. Last season, Auburn's offense ranked in the 100s nationally. Now its rushing offense is first in the SEC and eighth in the country, averaging right at 300 yard a game.
The Iron Bowl is must-see TV again.
7. Bo Wallace knows inexplicable upsets. Wallace looked like more than just a head of hair, throwing for 346 yards in a 27-24 win over LSU. He didn't score a touchdown, but that is of little consequence. Ole Miss opened up a 17-0 lead and Wallace guided a game-winning drive in the final minutes to finish off the upset of No. 6 LSU that the Rebels fell just short of last season.
Ole Miss was dreadful against Alabama and Auburn and dropped a heart-breaker to Texas A&M before getting back to winning this week. It could be the start of a four-game winning streak with Idaho, Arkansas and Troy coming up before games against Missouri and Mississippi State.
The Rebels should be in no danger of missing out on a bowl game like they almost did last year and the praise of Hugh Freeze is now getting back on track and growing louder. Ole Miss is also in the middle of a six-game home stand and only have one road game left.
8. Butch Jones might be the most impactful first-year coach. With Auburn's resurgence, this didn't seem possible. But the flip side to South Carolina's full body dry heave was that the other guy got to win. That "other guy" all of sudden looks like he's doing some great things for Tennessee.
It's funny how one game can change that perception. Malzahn is certainly doing something remarkable with the Tigers, but he took over a team that recently won a national championship and had much more to work with than the Tennessee squad Jones took over.
Tennessee has already equaled its win total from last season and pulled off a big upset to get there. The Vols also took Georgia to overtime and are primed for a trip to a bowl game for the first time since 2010. But it won't be easy to do. Tennessee only has one easy game left – the season finale against Kentucky – but needs two wins to make a bowl.
Despite that, Jones has fostered an environment where upsets aren't just something that happens, they are something that are expected. Case in point, Tennessee's kicker, Michael Palardy, said he would kick a game-winner against South Carolina and then did.
The Vols have already played four ranked teams and have to play three more in Alabama, Missouri and Auburn. Navigating that slate and coming out with a postseason berth will be no small feat.
9. Zach Mettenberger was Zach Mettenberger (2012) until he was Zach Mettenberger (2013). Zach Mettenberger threw three interceptions in the red zone in the first half against Ole Miss bringing back shades of his former self before remembering he's actually a decent player now and led LSU on a fourth quarter comeback to tie the game, but it wasn't enough.
Last week, I called LSU the best team in the SEC. Oops. I don't know if they just got beat or had a bad day or if they were never all that good to begin with, but the Tigers never got anything going, especially on defense where they gave up 525 yards.
LSU harbored national championship aspirations entering the game. Now, those are gone and their chances of making the SEC championship game hinge on upsetting Alabama, holding off Johnny Offense and hoping Alabama and Auburn each sustain an additional conference loss. In other words: Doomsday.
The season has already had one doomsday and LSU was its biggest casualty. It would be all but impossible for them to benefit from a second one.
10. You can forget about Alabama's "problems." Arkansas' #karma continued as the Crimson Tide gained 352 yards rushing, committed no turnovers and no penalties and rolled to a 52-0 win for the second straight year and now owns the No. 1 scoring defense in the nation.
Move along. There's nothing to see here.
Extra points: 1This would be the ideal weekend for one your wife's cousin's friends to get married. The cocktails you need should be there (if you're lucky, they'll be free) and there will be cake. Sure, the wedding will be boring, but it can't be worse than the game.
2I'm fairly certain icing the kicker is pointless, but you at least want to have the option to do it. It might not help you, but it's probably not going to hurt you, either.

Thought I would stick my head in the door and say Hi. I've been lurking for a few weeks after buying a Cub. It's a 1963 LoBoy. It came with a fast hitch, disc harrow and plow.
This is really my wife's tractor. I have a 1945 Farmall A. After going to tractor shows I asked my wife what kind of tractor she liked. She said the Cub LoBoy. So after quite a few years this one popped up and I gave it to her for her birthday. I know, the family is kidding me that it's really for me, but she seems to really like it. I want to get a mower for it and it will be our grass cutter.
And with the implements I may have to plant a garden now.
The tractor is in pretty good shape. I had to clean the carb and the gas tank. I still need to split the tractor and adjust the clutch and replace the throw out and pilot bearings. After a little grill straightening and paint it will be quite presentable. At first I didn't like the yellow, but it's growing on me after a while. I know either red or yellow would be correct, but my wife gets to pick the color. She's leaning towards red.
Thanks for looking, Ruff

Why? You would watch the same animation over and over? I just wished the gameplay would improve. And by improve, I mean by a vast amount. I grow weary of the little amenities they add. I want them to secure a better overall product, better animations in game play. They could use so many different animations...it would make the gameplay incredible.
Really? I liked Madden 13. Still play it couple times a week. Needs some tweaks, but overall they came a long way with the new physics engine and animations. Not to mention the AI upgrades. I think spending a bunch of time on this owner nonsense is a massive waste of time, but as long as they don't regress what they already has last year....I'll be happy.
they honestly have some thing where you can change prices of food? lol
Since 2k sports stopped making NFL and NCAA games, both EA products have gone to crap. It's amazing in the open market how 2k sports has absolutely annihilated EA. I can't wait until that contract ends.

Porpoises rolled in every direction around the boat, as they had for hours, and once in a while, a yellowfin tuna would either roll with the porpoises, or leap from the water in pursuit of a baitfish. George Large, vice president and general manager of Yo-Zuri Lures, stood next to me at the bow as we both cast relentlessly, sweat pouring off each of us. We were fishing out of the Islas Secas Resort in Panama with our good friend Carter Andrews, and the tuna were thick, traveling with schools of spinner porpoises. Seeing those porpoises and the attendant tuna that swim with them makes your pulse pound as the adrenaline flows, and somehow it doesn't seem unreasonable to make 200 casts or more a day in the tropical heat.
"Look at that, man," Andrews said from the tower. "That's solid tuna in front of the boat." Large and I both acknowledged that fact and reminded him that we had been casting into the fish all day, with periodic success, but somehow the large fish we sought had eluded us to this point. We had each caught several nice yellowfin, the largest of which probably pushed 70 pounds, but we knew bigger ones were out there — much bigger ones. We had seen them.
We were fishing near the famed Hannibal Bank close to Isla Montuosa when we ran across a smaller school of porpoises, and several large tuna rolled with the school simultaneously. "There they are, 2 o'clock!" Andrews hollered. Large was on the right side of the bow, and he let fly a long cast. His popper hit the water, and after only two pops on the retrieve, a huge tuna boiled on the lure. The yellowfin lay on its side on the surface for a few long seconds and thrashed the water in a furious frenzy, but when it finally sounded, it left in a hurry, taking lots of braided line with it.
Large is an expert angler, and he had hooked the fish on stout spinning tackle. He strapped himself into the stand-up gear and went to work, and twice the big tuna almost spooled him, but each time he persevered and gained line back foot by foot. Line came more steadily after some time, and an hour and 45 minutes after the bite, we saw color below the boat. After a few more strokes, the big fish lay just under the surface. Andrews' mate, Juan Andres Spragge, sank a large gaff in its shoulder, and he and I hauled the fish over the gunwale in one motion. Large was one exhausted — yet exhilarated — angler. Later that night at the dock, the big yellowfin tipped a digital scale at 207.5 pounds.
Numbers Game
Catching big tuna on casting gear is a numbers game. You have to cast a lot, and be fully prepared for long and brutal fights when you do hook up. Carter Andrews has become one of the world's leading experts at this style of fishing during his tenure as Islas Secas' director of fishing, so we asked him to share some thoughts about landing the fish of a lifetime on spinning gear.
"We are using 65-pound braid," Andrews says. "It's heavy enough to fight these monsters with maximum pressure but still small-enough diameter to maximize the cast. Heavier braid, 80- to 100-pound, just does not cast the same. The leader and double line needs to be at least six feet long. We have lost fish after a long fight when the main line chafed from the tuna's tail. Leaders are a minimum of 100-pound-test fluorocarbon. A huge tuna will inhale even the biggest lure, then all you have is leader coming from its mouth, and a 250-pound yellowfin has substantial teeth."
