The events of 9/11 and the war on terror that followed hit very close to home for a high ranking marine at MCLB Albany.
Colonel Yori Escalante not only served in Afghanistan, he was in the Pentagon when it came under attack 12 years ago today. He says we're still learning from that day, more than a decade later.
Colonel Yori Escalante was in 5th floor meeting the moment the Pentagon was struck by a commercial jet. "All of sudden, boom! Huge explosion," said Escalante. "I hit speed dial and I called my wife. I said the buildings been hit. I'm ok. I'm getting out. How many of those same phone calls were made from the World Trade Center with those same words and they didn't get out."
In the midst of chaos, one thing was certain, "Right away we knew we were at war." Now chief of staff of Marine Corps Logistics Command, Col. Escalante went on to fight the war on terror in Afghanistan.
A war still going on twelve years later, "We have to stay vigilant, we have to stay diligent. We have to remember every day that we were attacked." From a man who has seen the work of our enemies both at home and abroad... Keeping them away from our shores, is the ultimate goal. Either bring them to justice diplomatically, which is by far the most preferred method.
But if we have to go to war, if we have to use force, the US Marine Corps will be there protect the United States interest."
For now and forever, the sacrifices of those who have prevented another such attack won't be forgotten. 184 people were killed in the attack on the Pentagon; 59 of those aboard the hi-jacked plane.

GOLF: Sam Rounds off hat-trick
10:30am Thursday 12th April 2012 in Golf
SAMANTHA Round claimed her third Oxfordshire County ladies Championship after a thrilling play-off against Frilford Heath's Abi Laker in the final at Chipping Norton.
Round, the former Tadmarton Heath member, who now plays out of Cotswold Hills, previously won the title in 2006 and 2008.
After nine holes of the final, Round was three up on Laker, who fought back to win the next three holes with the help of two birdies.
The 17th and 18th were halved with birdies, with a stunning chip-in from Laker on the 18th matching Round's close approach and putt.
On the first extra hole, with Laker on the green in regulation, Round's amazing chip and run shot to four feet and the putt gave her the title.
In the semi-finals Round knocked out defending champion Kath O'Connor (Tadmarton Heath), while Laker defeated Cara Gainer (Frilford Heath).
Laker, who plays off two, had topped qualifying rounds for the Championship, taking the silver medal with a 36-hole total of 141, including a brilLiant second round of 66.
Gainer, playing off seven, won the handicap prize with a nett 134.
Prizes were also awarded for the best AM gross score won by Annie Gowing (handicap six) from Frilford with 73 and best AM nett score taken by Burford's Martine Summers, who plays off nine with 75.
Oxford Ladies featured strongly in the prizes for the Mid-Silver Trophy qualifiers at Chipping Norton.
Jane Tavinor won with gross 88 one ahead of clubmate and fellow 11 handicapper Maggie Edwards, while third gross was Susie Hogben (handicap 12) from Drayton Park on 86.
The Mid-Silver trophy was won by Hogben (Drayton Park) who beat Jan Glover (Oxford Ladies) 3 & 2.
Oxon Bronze Championship final: J Keeble (Studley Wood) bt M Deller (Studley Wood).

She's Beyonce — she can do whatever she wants. But many fans were shocked to hear she released Beyonce exclusively on iTunes Friday out of the blue, with no fanfare or marketing.
Bey mirrors how hubby Jay Z released Magna Carta Holy Grail earlier this year — through a deal with Samsung where he gave the album to 1 million users of Galaxy mobile phones days before its official release.
Beyonce's fifth effort features 14 songs and 17 videos. Jay Z, Drake and Frank Ocean make guest appearances on the album, while the closing track, Blue, features her baby daughter. Justin Timberlake co-wrote two songs; Pharrell, Timbaland, Ryan Tedder, Miguel and Sia also co-wrote tracks.
The album caused a stir on social media websites; Twitter said early data shows mentions of Beyonce spiked by 500,000-plus tweets after she announced the album. Diddy, Alicia Keys and Demi Lovato were among the celebrities tweeting about the topic.
Beyonce calls the work a "visual album," and she filmed some of the videos in Paris, New York, Sydney, Rio de Janeiro and Houston, her hometown.
"I didn't want to release my music the way I've done it," she said in a statement. "I am bored with that. I feel like I am able to speak directly to my fans. There's so much that gets between the music, the artist and the fans. I felt like I didn't want anybody to give the message when my record is coming out. I just want this to come out when it's ready and from me to my fans."
Beyonce's last album was 4, released in 2011. It reached platinum success. Beyonce will be available in stores "in time for the holidays," her representative said.
Deep freeze
Prince Harry and his fellow adventurers have made it to the South Pole. Harry, 29, is a member of one of three teams involving injured soldiers that set out two weeks ago on the 200-mile Walking with the Wounded South Pole Challenge.
The charity said Friday that the teams arrived at the South Pole at 8:25 a.m. The challenge was initially a race but organizers suspended the competitive element last week due to harsh conditions.
Actors Dominic West and Alexander Skarsgard also were on the trek with teams from Britain, the Commonwealth and the U.S.
Harry, an army Apache helicopter pilot who has served in Afghanistan, spent several days in 2011 trekking with wounded servicemen on a similar expedition to the North Pole.
Wake and break
Breaking up before the holidays can never be easy, but some couples can't keep it together one more minute.
Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom have seemed doomed for a while (she officially filed for divorce Friday), but the news of longtime pair Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs splitting was a big shocker. The frequent collaborators married in 2003 and had a son, Walker, in 2009.
And Madonna is flying solita again, calling it off with Israeli dancer Brahim Zaibait. The 55-year-old met the 25-year-old in 2010. Zaibait may have gotten too close for Madge's comfort with his pro partner on the French version of Dancing With The Stars. No biggie. The Irish Independent says that the singer may be rekindling her romance with Sean Penn. The two were recently on a humanitarian trip in Haiti and are considering spending the holidays a deux.
And Sofia Vergara may not be in wedding plan mode after all. The New York Daily News reports there may be trouble with fiance Nick Loeb because they didn't spend Thanksgiving together.

Questions & Answers
Gardall "B" Rated Commercial Money Safe
Not Bad at all!
Gippy from The World
Nice safe. From the sound of it a lot of the safes today are made from plastic. This is not.
Great Deal
Alex from Turlock, CA– Verified Buyer
Great safe with lots of room.
Great Product
Safe and Secure from N-ton, MA– Verified Buyer
After having my old safe burglarized (ripped open), I discovered most safes are junk. This is not. It immediately gave me piece of mind. Not rated for fire.
The evolution of Gardall can be traced all the way back to the 1930's when a successful Syracuse retailer named George Bloch began a safe manufacturing plant by the name of Protectall. With Bloch's sharp wit and business savy Protectall was soon doing a very respectable business. All of this fame and prosperity soon attracted the attention of a major competitive manufacturing rival Mosler Safe Company, who eventually bought the company for a sum of $1 million.
After the acquisition, Edward Mosler was appointed to head the company in Syracuse. With the help of Henry Bluestone, who ran the sales department when Bloch owned Protectall, Mosler successfully ran the company until 1949. At that time, Mr. Mosler Sr. decided to close the Syracuse plant and consolidate it into the main Mosler facility in Hamilton, Ohio.
At that point, Bluestone decided to start a safe manufacturing company of his own and named it Gardall Safe Corporation. After soliciting and eventually recieving some badly needed financial aid, Bluestone set up a crude, modest and mostly under-capitalized manufacturing plant.
During that time, Gardall was located in a building that was owned by the Falso family, also owners of Thor Metal Products. Gardall was experiencig severe cash flow problems and Bluestone was needing some help to stay alive. Bluestone approached the Falso's with an offer to purchase the controlling share of the company. He knew that with their sheet metal fabricating knowledge and ability to invest much needed liquidity into the business, he could turn Gardall into a profitable business.
Adolph and Raymond Falso accepted Bluestone's offer in 1970 and purchased Gardall Safe Corporation. Bluestone remained with the company doing what he did best, sales.
In 1978, Adolph Falso became a full-time employee of Gardall as its president. Under his leadership, Gardall continued to improve the quality of its products and introduced many offerings to the line. After almost 30 years of selling directly to dealers, Mr. Falso decided that the proper selling channel for safes was through regional distribution. In 1985 he began the process of converting his dealer business into a distribution-based business.
In 1986, Gardall was purchased by David Patton and Ed Baroody. At the time Baroody, a corporate accountant, was vice president of finance for a division of Shell Oil. Mr. Baroody assumed the role of President of Gardall.
Today Gardall Safe Corporation sells products in all fifty states and around the world. Gardall has become a recognized leader in residential, small business, and commercial grade safes. The quality and integrity established by George Bloch continue today. Modern manufacturing designs allow Gardall to continue to be recognized for it's security and functionality.

If you live on the Eastern seaboard, you are likely sick of seeing rain this summer. Between a wet and cold spring and the rains from Hurricane Irene, wet weather records were set all up and down the East Coast.
The Yankees have been particularly unlucky this season with the weather. They have had seven games postponed: three at home and four on the road, with three of the latter in Baltimore, where if anything the weather has been even worse than in New York. And they also played a game on Sept. 6 at Yankee Stadium in a steady downpour after a four-hour rain delay.
They might have to do the same thing tonight, because the New York metro weather forecast does not look good:
Tonight: Showers. Areas of fog before midnight. Low around 66. East wind around 6 mph becoming west. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New rainfall amounts between three quarters and one inch possible.
Midafternoon Friday, area radars looked like this:
There are a few breaks in that rain shield, and it's coming from the south and southwest. Maybe they'll get the proverbial "window" in which they can play; maybe they'll play again in a moderate rain. That seems to be de rigeur in baseball today; games are played in conditions that would have resulted in pre-game postponements as recently as 10 years ago.
But more money is at stake today, so they play through conditions that risk injury. That, of course, could cost teams even more money if a high-priced player gets hurt. Those stakes are even higher this weekend. The Yankees still have something to play for, despite having clinched the AL East two days ago; they have a magic number of two to clinch home field throughout the AL playoffs. Meanwhile, if the Red Sox don't play, they face a Friday evening of sitting around and potentially watching both the Rays and Angels make up ground on them.
No one in baseball has any more off days. If tonight's matchup between starters Jon Lester and Freddy Garcia can't be played tonight, it would likely be made up as a day/night doubleheader Saturday. However...
Saturday: Showers. High near 77. Calm wind becoming southeast around 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.
Stay tuned. Tonight's game will be carried nationally on MLB Network beginning at 7 p.m. ET -- weather permitting.

I ordered the gray duvet and it looks great in my bedroom which is mostly neutrals (grays, beiges/camels, with metallic accents).. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it is made of a cotton sateen and has a nice, subtle sheen to it. The fabric is fairly tightly woven and has a good weight to it (like a good quality sheet). My only complaint is that there are no ties inside to hold the comforter in place. Other than that, I would recommend this highly.
I love the two duvet covers I've bought recently from Overstock. Some reveiws I've seen complain that the material is "thin". There are two kinds of covers; those from heavier materials that are used as a formal bedspread - usually used with a flat top sheet, to sleep under - or the soft cotton like this one that is perfect for using as a sheet AND a bedspread. Having lived in Europe for 20 years, we prefer to sleep directly under the duvet.
Wasn't sure about the pattern at first but we have a dog that loves our comforter as much as we do. The pattern masks the paw prints that sometimes just happen. Haven't washed it yet, but cotton feels soft and I think it will wash very well.
I ordered the set in grey and I'm really happy with it. I would not describe the color as grey however--there is a grey-like shade in the pattern, but the rest of the colors in the print are so warm (cream, tan, etc) that the overall dominant effect is more like a beige or taupe, just warmer than a true grey. I nearly ordered the mocha, thinking the grey set would be too stark, and I'm glad I didn't. Photos on the website of each individual color would be helpful! Just the same, I eenie meenie miney moe'd it, and it works perfectly in my room with taupe walls, white trim and espresso bedroom set. Very happy. Fit is perfect. Quality is good. No defects or stitching problems. The pattern is interesting without being overpowering. Comes out of the package with a chemical odor, need to launder before using. Would have preferred a stripe or contrasting print on the reverse, but I bought a set of white shadow striped sheets at the same time, and it provides a little contrast in a sophisticated way. Sorry for the rambling but point being, I'd definitely recommend the set. Looks really nice.
Needed to find a classy looking duvet set for the master bedroom for a summer rental at VA Beach. We chose the blue/grey one & it is perfect! There was some sandy beige in the mix which made it work for the "beach/spa/resort" look we were going for. The fabric is very soft & had a nice sheen to it that made it look richer.
True to the color depicted in the photo. The cuvet covers are a tad larger than the comforters I got but they look great.
Very comfortable fabric, very happy with this purchase.
I bought this duvet set for a pop of color in my guest room. In the end, it was a good purchase and value--I didn't spend a lot of money and achieved the color that I wanted. I've since solidified the look of the room, and this duvet no longer really fits--which is why I'm particularly glad I didn't spend a ton of money on it! Pros: The fabric is nice and smooth, but no cheap-feeling. The pattern is quite pretty and the colors (I got the blue and gold) were nice and rich..at first. Cons: The color faded quite a bit after washing, which was disappointing. However, since the duvet was being used int he guest room, and is no longer in use, I'm not terribly disappointed.
Washed these and they are nice and soft and the colors did not fade.
It was a good value. Some had talked about an odor after they washed it. I found none. However, it IS a sateen finish--it did say that--and I am not crazy about that finish. We used our duvet and cover in place of a top sheet, and I like a regular cotton feel.

I've heard that one definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. By that standard, the U.S. "War on Drugs" seems crazy indeed in The House I Live In.
David Simon, creator of "The Wire," who argues that the targeting of minorities, fused with mandatory sentencing, has turned the war on drugs into ''a holocaust in slow motion.''
A personal work not because the director chooses to make himself a part of the story, but rather because he implicates all of us in it.
The House I Live In is not a comfortable film to consider in any respect, but without discomfort it's hard to feel anger - and without anger, it's hard to imagine that anything will ever be done about it.
This film could serve as a potent tool for those trying to change 40 years of public policy.
Oct 18, 2012Jarecki takes a highly original approach to create a compelling, thought-provoking look at a highly relevant and controversial topic.
The result is a movie that jumps all over the place, but with the ultimate intention of showing how the public's attitudes and assumptions about drugs have changed over the past half-century, guided by politicians and businessmen with a stake in misinformation.

Oct 17, 2012It's a good documentary in that there are so many issues addressed therein that require examination (and often indignation), but it goes a bit too far and fails to even posit alternatives. I love that they highlight the difference in sentencing guidelines between powder and crack cocaine. Completely asinine, even if you don't believe that it's targeting non-whites. The other issue that I feel is huge is the manipulation of federal housing assistance - ex-cons were denied housing assistance for all but the "red" zones on the city maps - essentially the ghettos. What was not discussed in this film was exactly how the experts would deal with drug dealers in absence of jail sentences. And when the son of the Columbia professor says that he can't raise 2 kids on $8 an hour, the father should have said, "YES, YOU CAN!..... It's a start! Get 2 jobs paying $8 each, and make your dollars last!" It seems that personal accountability is not given enough weight in the discussion. And comparing the US war on drugs to the Holocaust was disgusting. I know there are elements in common between genocide and marginalizing a group of people for actually doing wrong (buying and using drugs), but David Simon (who I love from "the Wire") goes too far when he suggests that the US policy is becoming "Kill the Poor." Hard-working poor folks who don't commit crimes? Those are the people killed in Germany, Poland, Cambodia, and Russia. They don't go to prison and get killed in the U.S. It's a bridge too far, and takes away from many of the valuable lessons of the film.… Full Review »
Sep 15, 2013It's amazing that this documentary film has received only one user review so far. And a pretty negative one at that.
First, let me say that I am an observer from way across the Atlantic Ocean, but since the American view on things often seem to somehow find its way over here in one way or another, I was still mighty interested.
To be honest, I started watching this film expecting an analysis of the American prison system, but it is far more than just that. It is about their "war on drugs" throughout the last 100 years, the curtain of politics and laws thrown up around it, and the effects that it now has on the American society. Yes, we are talking about developments that started during the early years of the 20th century, when the use of certain drugs was first made illegal. The reasons behind this, which are given around halfway during the film, are actually pretty shocking to say the least.
Note that there was a time when the use of opium, even cocaine and heroin were considered useful and good in many ways, similar to alcohol, caffeine and nicotine nowadays. There are parts of a 1995 WHO study (specifically the use of cocaine) which provide a very interesting read on this subject.
Although the film does trace its roots back to almost a century ago, it mostly focuses on the situation as it has developed during the last 30-40 years. It talks about the rigorous laws that have come into effect (e.g. with heavy minimum sentencing and extreme multiple strike laws), how they came to be (e.g. by presidents using popular catchphrases, with Nixon as an unexpected exception to the rule), and how these laws are actually pushing entire families into a negative spiral of drug abuse and criminality instead of keeping them out of it. In the last few minutes, as mentioned by another reviewer, it even goes so far as to compare the developments during this "war on drug(user)s" to those during the "war on jews" (i.e. the holocaust). Accurate as this comparison may be, it feels as if the filmmaker is looking for a bit of shock value here, which does not match the perfectly neutral view he manages to maintain during the rest of the documentary, even when it comes to racial issues. Because that is where its strength actually lies.
"The House I Live In" is such an astoundingly good documentary because it manages to provide such an excellent, neutral overview of an incredibly sophisticated, deeply rooted and yet greatly ignored problem. It presents views from all different directions, be it a drug addicts' heartbroken mother who herself has a very troubled history, a stereotypical prison ward who feels he was born for his job, or a college professor who managed to escape the system and is now doing the best he can to keep his son out of it. Everyone gets a word, and the surprising fact is that everyone agrees that the "war on drugs" is not the right way to fight this fight.
In the end, this film does not provide anyone with a ready solution; it merely observes the situation. It gives you plenty of room to make your own opinion on the matter, despite the fact that, as mentioned, there are some graphic analogies made towards the conclusion of the film which somewhat force you into a specific direction. But luckily, the documentary shows that there is some light at the end of this dark tunnel: after decades and decades of failure, more and more people are realising that the current system does not work, and that some things desperately need to change.
By the way, be "warned" that every topic is discussed in a fair but somewhat frank manner; African Americans are just referred to as blacks, people are shown dealing and actually doing drugs, some actual imagery from the holocaust is shown. No euphemisms here. This is an adult documentary about adult themes. But it has one important lesson which is especially important for younger people, those who are the future: do not ever let anyone tell you that some group of people is bad or less than you in any way.… Full Review »

Thread: Packers' talent matches Vikings'
Packers' talent matches Vikings'
Posted September 27, 2006
[size=13pt]Chris Havel column: Packers' talent matches Vikings' [/size]
By Chris Havel
To say the Green Bay Packers are a young team is getting old. To say they are rebuilding is nothing more than a convenient excuse for failure.
It is time to quit perpetuating the myth.
The truth is, the Packers' frontline players have enough experience to compete, and the 53-man roster has enough talent to win more than it loses.
Do the Packers have the weapons to challenge the Chicago Bears in the NFC North? Nope. That was evident in their 26-0 loss in the opener. Do they have the talent to make the Minnesota Vikings sweat it out in the race for second place? You bet.
Starter for starter, the Packers stack up favorably with the Vikings. In some ways, they have more talent based upon past performance. If the Packers continue to stay healthy, and inexperienced backups aren't thrust into starting roles, they should be right there with the Vikings come December.
If the Packers become also-rans, it won't be because they are young or rebuilding. It will be due to one or all of the following:
Coach Mike McCarthy, offensive coordinator Jeff Jagodzinski, defensive coordinator Bob Sanders and special teams coach Mike Stock do a poor job.
The veterans fail to consistently perform up to their potential.
A slew of injuries at key positions, particularly quarterback, receiver and the offensive line, reduces the offense to a shambles.
That is true of most NFL teams, and the Packers are no different. To say General Manager Ted Thompson didn't provide McCarthy, Sanders or Stock with the horses to run a competitive race is naïve.
Consider the Packers' and Vikings' depth charts. Which quarterback (Brett Favre or Brad Johnson?), tight end (Bubba Franks or Jim Kleinsasser?) or receiving tandem (Donald Driver and Greg Jennings or Travis Taylor and Troy Williamson?) would a majority of NFL teams prefer?
True, the Vikings' offensive line, interior defensive line and safeties are more talented, and running back Chester Taylor gets the nod over Ahman Green at this stage of their careers. But the Packers' defensive ends rate a slight edge, and their linebackers are physically superior. The Vikings' Fred Smoot and Antoine Winfield have outperformed Al Harris and Charles Woodson, but what cornerback tandem hasn't ? Harris and Woodson are too talented, and they should be too embarrassed, to let that continue.
The Vikings' Tony Richardson is a powerful blocking fullback, but William Henderson is the more effective receiver.
Ex-Packers kicker Ryan Longwell is money in the clutch, but Dave Rayner missed only a 53-yarder and has the stronger leg on kickoffs. The punters are a draw, and Green Bay's return game is more explosive with Koren Robinson and Woodson.
The Vikings' Kevin Williams is a Pro Bowl defensive tackle that can dominate a game, and their offensive line is capable of punishing the best defensive front sevens. Those are significant advantages for the Vikings, but the overall disparity between the teams — if one exists — is minimal.
If the Packers finish a distant third to the Vikings, or worse, dead last in the NFC North, the culprits will be ineffective coaching, substandard play by key veterans and-or a spate of injuries.
The perception of the Packers is that of a young, rebuilding team.
That isn't the reality.

I thought real hard about posting this in the "Fantasy forum".
Obviously, Havel has a hard time distinguishing between reality & fantasy.

They don't have the talent to challange the Bears which he said was evident by an an asswhooping they recieved yet we do have the talent.
His logic is mind boggling.

Re: Packers' talent matches Vikings'
WOW - this is very funny.
I don't fault the author for writing this, he probably grew up in Green Bay and has these conversations with every dilusional Packer fan out there.
But how did his editor let this go to print?
In his position analysis he doesn't take into account that where the Vikings have an edge they are significantly better and where the Packers have an edge it is slight.
For instance...
Brad vs. Favre - sure Favre had an amazing career and you would generally prefer him over Johnson, but not by much as Favre will make a lot more mistakes than Johnson and put your defense in compromising positions.

Rangers radio broadcaster Eric Nadel, who is already a member of the Texas Baseball Hall of Fame, will be inducted into the Rangers Hall of Fame later this year and was a finalist for both the 2011 and 2012 Ford C. Frick Awards. Only one other announcer in the American League, Denny Matthews in Kansas City, has a longer continuous stint with one team than Nadel, who's been at it for 34 years with the Rangers.
On Thursday, fans can join Nadel in celebrating his birthday with a live-music benefit at The Kessler Theater in Dallas. Daphne Willis, whose music was featured on the TV show "One Tree Hill," headlines the performance in support of nonprofit organizations CONTACT and To Write Love on Her Arms. Ray Johnston Band, a local favorite, is the opener.
CONTACT is dedicated to helping people from teens to seniors facing daily life challenges through 24-hour confidential listening and a connection to resources and emergency assistance. To Write Love on Her Arms helps those struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide.
Tickets are available for less than $20, and all net proceeds from ticket sales and the silent auction benefit the two nonprofits.

Richmond businesses are bracing for sporadic water outages this weekend.
Utility crews will be shutting off the water on West Broad Street from Boulevard west to the 195 overpass, the 200–500 blocks of West Broad Street, and Henry Street from Marshall Street to West Broad Street. The water will be shut off Sunday at 3 p.m. The next phase will be on April 7th.
Public utilities officials say the goal is no more than three hours without water. They say underground water valves are more than 50 years old, and need to be replaced or repaired.
The loss of water is quite a downer at Lift Coffee Shop.
"It's lost revenue for all of the businesses. It's a pretty big impact for us," said Lift Coffee Shop owner Stephanie Garnett. "We can't brew coffee, or make espresso drinks, or anything like that, so we can't be open."
Garnett says the revenue she'll lose in half a day equals half her monthly city tax bill.
"My overhead costs are still there," she said.
Comfort Inn General Manager Kathy Critzer says her staff has been notifying guests of the inconvenience.
"(We've asked them to) bear with us. It is repeat business. They come back every year," said Critzer.
City officials say they're replacing more valves in one round than usual to inconvenience businesses as little as possible.
Anyone who would like updates can call 3-1-1, and choose the prompt for water emergency.

Blink182 is a rock/pop band.. used to be a bit more hardcore and relatively punkish, but never really punk. For one thing, you can understand the lyrics. Still pretty good band, just not punk. Sold out? Maybe. Who cares?

A very weak band. They have/had a large fan base mainly because no one these days knows what good music is. There is almost no skill involved(except for the drumming which is great). Almost anyone could pick up a guitar or bass and play half their songs. Not punk, just bad.
person 1: hey look at me im so cool because i listen to crappy music like blink-182.
person 2: shutup and listen to some music that takes a bit of skill and concentration to create.

Guthrie, who will be entering his fourth six-year term, said he was grateful to the people of Walker County for their confidence in him and assistance throughout his service, and to his staff in the Revenue Office for their help and support
"I'm very thankful to the Lord for this opportunity to serve the people of this county again," Guthrie said Friday.
Adkins said he was also excited to be able to continue serving the people of the county and hopes to be able to continue to maintain and improve the quality of academics in the county schools. Previously, he has said he would like to focus on continuing to improve the county's graduation rates and standardized test scores, as well as increasing the availability of advanced placement classes for students and continuing education credits for teachers in the system.
Ingle was grateful for the support from the teachers, staff and support people and looks forward to moving the system forward with the help of the board and Adkins.
"It has been an honor to serve the 8,000 students in the school system," Ingle said.
Allred said he was also excited to be able to serve another term as district judge.
"I'm very humbled by the support I've gotten from the community," Allred said.
Allred, who hears the county's juvenile cases, also said he was glad to be able to focus on his job instead of running a campaign.
"Young people are our most important resource in Walker County," Allred said. "I have tried to do what's right in every case and that's what I'm going to continue to do."
At the state level, Reed will begin his second term as a state senator and said he was also humbled by the support he has received.
"From the time I was elected in 2010 to the present and for the next four years, I can't think of a higher honor to be bestowed on me than to be senator of District 5," Reed said. "I will continue to do my very best to represent the citizens of District 5 to the best of my abilities."

Holy cow these U9 United boys can play! So exciting to watch them on the field. They are quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with. As a coach, there are many things I am proud of. As a dad and friend, I am most proud of how these boys are starting to take care one another on and off the field.
We had a great week of practice. Our focus has been speed. Speed dribbling, finishing and making decisions. Saturday's game was evidence to me that we have gained some speed. They were incredibly fast tracking to the ball on defense and opposing teams better look out if any of these boys get in the open field. Their confidence dribbling at speed has really improved.
Going forward this week, my plan is to open up the field a bit. I will be pushing the boys to not be afraid to "pull the trigger". I would like to see some shots from the outside. Harry and Elliot do a great job of this already. Elliot had a nice goal from the corner that happened to be caught on video. I would like to build on the confidence we have dribbling and add some long range shooting into the mix. We know these boys are comfortable dribbling right to the goal. Let's get them that comfortable with some long range shooting!
This Thursday we will be practicing at the indoor facility. We will have a Copa style tourney and celebrate Austin's birthday. If you need directions, please contact myself or Jynn. This weekend is the Copa del Sol tournament. Timing is perfect for us to improve our long range shooting. Copa tourney will play right into our plans to shoot from the outside. This is a 4v4 no goalie tournament. Fast paced and lots of shooting. Going to be so much fun!!!
In closing, thanks to everyone for supporting our team. Looking forward to practice today. Go to Durangosoccer.com and check out U9 United page.

HARRINGTON, Del. - A Millsboro man was arrested, by Harrington Police, twice in one day. Officers responded to Thomas Street where someone forced their way into the garage of a home, and tried to get inside. The suspect damaged the garage door in the process.
An investigation lead police catch up with 18-year-old Benjamin Beyer, who was walking on Clark Street. The officers say they told Beyer to stop, but he continued to walk. When they caught up with him, and tried to arrest him, Beyer reportedly fought with the officer and resisted arrest. The officer had to use his Taser to take Beyer into custody.
He was charged with 3rd degree burglary, attempted theft under $1,500, resisting arrest with force, and criminal mischief under $1,000, and taken to Sussex Correctional Institute.
Shortly after leaving SCI called the officer back, after they reportedly found a pill bottle with 31 oxycodone pills in Beyer's groin area. He was additionally charged with possess a controlled substance in a tier 2 quantity and with an aggravating factor, promoting prison contraband, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Beyer also received an additional $3,500 bond, and stayed behind bars at Sussex Correctional Institute.

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - Many people woke up Wednesday morning to the news about Louisville's move to the ACC. But word starting leaking out late Tuesday night a move may be imminent. And the ACC blogger from North Carolina first broke the story revealed the gears had been turn ever since the University of Maryland's surprise announcement that they were leaving the ACC for the Big Ten.
David Glenn, publisher of the website ACCSports.com, said leaders of the remaining ACC schools started talking about a replacement for more than a week, leading up to a secret teleconference at 7 a.m. Wednesday to vote UofL in.
Glenn said the fact that the ACC is known as a basketball conference made the UofL a perfect fit.
"It's really the only school that generated a massive amount of support," Glenn said. "Even as Cincinnati and UConn and South Florida and others were trying to get into the ACC."
Glenn said UofL's resume was helped by an up and coming football program, a star athletic director in Tom Jurich, and a gigantic athletics budget even by ACC standards. The University of Louisville's athletics budget is $71.5 million in 2012-2013 according to the schools operating budget.
But UofL's ACC invite was not a slam dunk.
Glenn said 24 hours before the announcement leaders of some ACC schools were on the fence, concerned about the quality of UofL's academics which rank far below other ACC schools. And its relatively small TV market size which Glenn said reaches one-fifth of the households of ACC schools in the state of Florida and half a many as in North Carolina.
"Louisville would be on the smaller end," Glenn said. "In terms of TV exposure which impacts the amount of money you get for your TV partners."
Glenn said in the end, the positives out weighed the negatives leading ACC presidents and chancellors to hold a secret vote early Wednesday morning to make UofL its newest member.
For how long is unknown. The SEC, Big Ten and Pac 12 are the only conferences strong enough financially to guarantee survival if college sports evolves into four super conferences. A move some think is inevitable. But not Glenn.
"It is not inevitable," Glenn said. "I think we could move forward with 5 major conferences making a whole lot of money thanks to TV for their member schools. But if anybody gets nervous if more major dominos continue to fall, something will happen with either the Big 12 or the ACC."

I tried to find how to report a bug to Nokia developpers and this forum is the closest I could get. I hope someone will pass this on to the appropriate department. I am just a simple user.
My mobile is a Nokia 6700 classic. s/w details: V07.90, RM-470.
I use the large analog clock (found in a screensaver).
When I press the menu button while the keys are locked, the clock will display for a few seconds. The seconds hand is then moving but the main hands are frozen in the position they had when the keys got locked. This persists when I unlock the keys, until the seconds hand passes the 12. Then the main hands update to the current time.
So, when checking the time, while the keyboard is locked, the clock will tell you when the keyboard was locked, not what time it is.
I have tested repeatedly and it reproduces.
I thought someone should alter this behaviour since it is certainly not what the user expects.

The MLB first-year player draft is almost upon us (the first two rounds are Thursday at 3:00 p.m. PT). The Texas Rangers send the majority of their draft picks to the Spokane Indians, so it's a good time to start thinking about the players that will be playing in Avista Stadium this summer.
Of course, the Rangers don't have to assign all their draft picks to the Indians and often will refrain from sending the top couple picks to Spokane. So instead of looking ahead, here's a glance back at some of the top players to come through Spokane in the last decade or so, with their current team in parenthesis.
Did I miss anyone? Let me know.
Chris Davis (Baltimore Orioles): The first baseman was drafted in 2006 by the Rangers and never played more than 113 games in three-plus seasons with the big league club. Davis was traded to the Orioles during the 2011 season and put up career highs in home runs (33), RBI (85), walks (37) and games (139) in 2012 with Baltimore. This year, though, Davis has catapulted himself into one of the top hitters in the league. Davis leads the Majors in home runs (20) and is hitting .357. Look for him at the All-Star Game in July.
Carlos Beltran (St. Louis Cardinals): The 16-year veteran played for the Indians when they were an affiliate of the Royals in the late 1990s. Beltran has since gone on to a distinguished career that includes seven All-Star Games, a Rookie of the Year award, three Gold Gloves and two Silver Sluggers.
Ian Kinsler (Texas Rangers): The Rangers took Kinsler in the 17th round of the 2003 draft, a selection that would prove to be a steal. Kinsler played for the Indians during that summer and eventually made the big league club before the 2006 season. Kinsler is a three-time All Star and has amassed 1,038 hits, 150 home runs and 160 stolen bases in less than seven years.
Jurickson Profar (Texas Rangers): The middle infielder signed with the Rangers in 2009 and made his debut with the Indians in 2010. Profar is rated as MLB's top prospect and is currently playing with the Rangers in place of Kinsler, who is on the disabled list.
Mike Olt (Triple-A Round Rock): The 21st –rated prospect by MLB spent the 2010 season with the Indians and has made an appearance with the Rangers. He currently is playing in Triple-A Round Rock.

Sign2sing record attempt at schools
8:23am Wednesday 13th February 2013 in News By Joel Holt
CHILDREN across Salisbury attempted to break records again in this year's sign2sing event.
Many Schools in the city took part in Sign Health's event on Wednesday, February 6 to raise money for the charity and to try to win a place in the record books for the most people signing and singing simultaneously.
Children prepared a range of songs which they performed at 2.45pm. The charity is still collecting donations and will confirm at a later date if the record was broken.
For more information visit sign2sing.org.uk or contact the charity on 01494 687600.

Corns are areas of thick, hardened, dead skin. They form to protect the skin and structures under the skin from pressure, friction, and injury. They may look grayish or yellowish, be less sensitive to the touch than surrounding skin, and feel bumpy.
Corns are usually found where toes rub together. A soft corn is found between toes (usually between the fourth and fifth toes), while a hard corn is often found over a bony part of a toe (usually on the fifth toe).

The KC Chiefs beat the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night and the starting quarterback, Alex Smith, did not play. But that doesn't mean we don't have a little bit of quarterback drama. Tyler Bray looked raw but solid as he completed 14-of-25 passes for 169 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. Chase Daniel, meanwhile, completed just 4-of-8 passes, playing early into the second quarter before Bray relieved him.
The Chiefs current quarterback depth chart looks like this: 1.) Alex Smith 2.) Chase Daniel 3.) Tyler Bray
There aren't really any indications that the Chiefs are going to move away from that depth chart anytime soon. That's the way it's been all camp. You may think that money and contracts don't matter in terms of the depth chart, but I think they do. Daniel, with a three-year contract, is probably locked in as the No. 2 quarterback for at least the early stretch of the Chiefs season.
Andy Reid on Thursday night even said, "I'm still very comfortable with Chase being the No. 2."
We all know it's too early to be considering this. Tyler Bray has only played in a few preseason games. It's way too early. We know that. But that doesn't mean we can't vote on it.
So, what say you, Chiefs fans.
Who SHOULD be the Chiefs No. 2 quarterback?

|On the Other Hand — That four-letter word
|Saturday, December 14, 2013 9:01 PM
As I sit here writing this I am anticipating our impending snowfall. A check at 11:15 p.m., the white stuff was falling.
I know, I know, most don't like to hear that four-letter word — S - N - O - W. It means shoveling and salting and vehicles getting stuck, difficult driving, longer commutes, etc.
It also means snowmen, snowball fights, sledding and winter fun.
I'll be filling out my Christmas cards this morning and what a lovely sight to look at while this task is accomplished.
Snow makes everything look magnificent. I love going to the mudroom and looking out at the back yard and beyond to the park and seeing everything cloaked in white, sparkling snow. It's magical.
My favorite winter scene is when it collects on each and every branch of a tree and perfectly decorates landscaping. I have sampras grass in the backyard (thank you Mr. Myers) that is truly beautiful against the pure backdrop of snow.
Another of my favorites is to be the first out and about with Mr. Ringo, leaving our footprints in the virgin snow. Ringo will have a ball. He has new boots you know. His poor little feet get cold and then he has to hold one of them up and it's difficult to complete his duties that way. We end going back in and then in a short while, he wants out. By that time, he's forgotten that if he doesn't hurry, the process will start all over. Silly little man.
Well, "these boots were made for walking and that's just what they'll do." His little feet will stay warm and dry and he can scamper and play in the snow to his heart's content — or until mama gets cold and says it's time to go in.
I hope to see lots of children out and about. As time goes on and technology rules, fewer and fewer children get outside and build snow forts or snowmen. I hope the reservoir is packed with families enjoying a fun winter day. It's a great way to spend time together and make memories.
I remember winters filled with ice skating and ginormous snow forts in the Schabbings' yard across the street. It was hot chocolate and waiting for your clothes to dry so you could go back out. It was red cheeks and puffs of steam coming out when you breathed. It was numb toes and stiff fingers in crusted mittens and gloves and you didn't care because if you went inside, you were going to miss something.
It's a great winter day. Get out there and enjoy it. Or as my dad would say, "Get out there and get the stink blown off ya!"

I've never heard of anyone attacking Tim Tebow for praying on the sidelines. I've heard comedians poke fun at it, I've heard some question how his outspoken beliefs and preaching tendacies would be taken by other players especially high profile veterans. But I've never heard anyone "attack" him for it.

CLARK COUNTY, Ind. (WDRB) -- Two local businesses are working to bring back some holiday icons that longtime Louisville residents may remember.
Inside the warehouse of the Weber Group in Clark County, there are a number of whimsical displays that go into amusement parks, museums and even zoos around the country.
The Weber Group is a local construction company that builds apartments and shopping centers. But about 40 percent of its work is constructing these entertaining figures.
The company's current project involves some of the original Christmas figures that used to be displayed in the show windows of the old Stewart's Department Store in downtown Louisville at what was then Fourth and Walnut Streets.
Those figures delighted many Louisville residents decades ago at the department store which is now a vacant building in the heart of downtown Louisville.
In a few weeks people will get a chance to see the restored mechanical figures as a new generation of kids will be able to experience some holiday magic as part of what is called Christmas at the Galt House.
"Here at the Weber Group, we have recreated actual store windows for guests at the Galt House to enjoy, bringing back those great Christmas memories," says Penny Peavler of the Weber Group.
There are three restored window displays, a Victorian scene, a Dickens Christmas, and the 12 Days of Christmas.
For Peavler the latest project is a little bit personal. "I grew up in Frankfort," she says, "and that was a big part in the late 1960's coming up to the widows of Stewart's."
The Weber Group is also upgrading the Christmas Village and Castle that was on display last year at the Galt House.
"We hope it puts everyone in the holiday spirit and brings back some of the magic of Christmas past," says Peavler.

Chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer
Targeted drugs for non-small cell lung cancer
As researchers have learned more about the changes in lung cancer cells that help them grow, they have developed newer drugs that target these changes. These targeted drugs work differently from standard chemotherapy (chemo) drugs. They sometimes work when other cancer drugs don't, and they often have different (and less severe) side effects. At this time, they are most often used for advanced lung cancers, either along with chemo or by themselves.
Drugs that target tumor blood vessel growth (angiogenesis)
For cancer cells to grow, they must form new blood vessels to feed the tumor. The drug bevacizumab (Avastin®) can keep new blood vessels from forming. It has been shown to help people with advanced lung cancer live longer when given along with chemo. But it can cause serious bleeding, so it can't be used for patients who are coughing up blood or are taking certain medicines. Other possible side effects include high blood pressure, low white blood cell counts, slow wound healing, holes forming in the intestines, heart problems, and an increased risk of blood clots.
Drugs that target EGFR
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a protein on the surface of cells that normally helps them grow and divide. Some lung cancer cells have too much EGFR, which helps them grow faster.
Targeted drugs such as erlotinib (Tarceva®), cetuximab (Erbitux®), and afatinib (GilotrifTM) block EGFR from telling the cell to grow. Some are taken as pills, while others must be injected into a vein.
The side effects of these drugs tend to be milder than those of most chemo drugs. The most bothersome side effect for many people is an acne-like rash on the face and chest, which in some cases can lead to skin infections. Other side effects can include diarrhea, loss of appetite, and feeling tired.
For more details about the skin problems that can result from anti-EGFR drugs, see our document Targeted Therapy.
Drugs that target the ALK gene
About 5% of non-small cell lung cancers have a problem in a gene called ALK. The drugs crizotinib (Xalkori®) and ceritinib (Zykadia™) can help patients with lung cancers that have the ALK gene change. Crizotinib is generally used first. Then ceritinib is used if crizotinib stops working or didn't work in the first place
The most common side effects are mild and depend on which drug is used. They can include nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, swelling, fatigue, and eye problems. Some other severe side effects can occur, as well. Ask your doctor what you can expect.
For more information on the targeted drugs used to treat non-small cell lung cancer, see "Targeted therapies for non-small cell lung cancer" in our detailed guide, Lung Cancer (Non-small Cell).
