Timberland-to-vineyard rules before supervisors
Hearing weighs controversial issue affecting 200,000 acres
Published: Tuesday, December 13, 2005 at 3:00 a.m.

Controversial rules governing the process for changing timberland into vineyards go before Sonoma County supervisors today in what's likely to lead to a new and more sharply focused fight over the pace of conversions.
Prohibits vineyards on about 4 percent of county timberland considered host to oldest growth.
Requires county use permit in about 120,000 acres of rural zones.
May require county use permit on 80,000 timberland acres in zones designated by state forestry department.
For more than three years, conversion of timberland into vineyards has been a simmering issue between environmentalists who want them halted and the wine industry that sees profits in the hills of northwestern Sonoma County.
At issue is an estimated 200,000 acres of timberland that, until now, has had little land use scrutiny because the land has been more valuable in wood products than in wine grapes.
However, rising land costs and consumer demand for premium grapes have prompted developers to cast an eye toward the woodlands north of Guerneville between Highway 101 and the coast.
In a report outlining proposed rules, officials in the Permit and Resource Management Department said county supervisors must resolve the central question whether vineyards will be permitted in "timberland production" zones that also fall under state forestry regulations.
The report from county planning officials acknowledges they have only rough estimates of timberland acreage that will come under an ordinance. The amount in these "rural resource" zones where timber conversion rules will apply has been estimated between 194,000 and 230,000 acres.
About 80,000 of those acres are located in timberland production areas where state forestry rules permit activities such as livestock grazing because they are compatible with tree growing and harvesting. These timberland production areas are defined by property owners seeking lucrative tax breaks for maintaining woodlands, and the new county zoning rules would apply on almost 96 percent of these areas.
"Unlike grazing, vineyards, orchards and other agricultural cultivation typically require that the timber be removed," David Schiltgen of the Permit and Resource Management Department said.
He said if state law requires a conversion permit, "these uses would inhibit the growing and harvesting of timber and thus would not meet the general definition of compatible use."
Leaders of several environmental groups Monday complained that proposed rules do not clearly state that a rezoning permit from the county and a timberland conversion permit from the state will be necessary in these timber production zones.
"We are hoping the language is worked out so the loopholes are closed," said Craig Litwin, co-director of Conservation Action.
Officials with the Sierra Club also said they object to the proposed 2-for-1 acre mitigation ratio and 25-foot setback requirement, calling them inadequate.
Bob Anderson, executive director of United Wine Growers of Sonoma County, said his group would review timberland conversion proposals, but it was too early to comment because debate on specific regulations is just starting.
County supervisors will hold a hearing on proposed timberland conversion rules at 2:15 p.m. today at the county administration building. County attorneys are advising supervisors to send the proposals back to the planning commission for review and reopening of public comment.

The medieval monastery in Župa, with its church dedicated to St. Lucas, was built on a plain on the left bank of the river Gračanica near Nikšić.
In the middle of the 19th century, during the montenegrin-turkish wars, Župa was the meeting place of the insurgents, especially under prince Danilo Petrović. It was burnt and plundered several times by the Turks and completely destroyed during Omer-paša's campaign on Montenegro in 1853. At that time the treasury of the monastery was burnt. Today's St. Lucas' church, with a cross-shaped plan, made of carved stone, was erected by prince Nikola Petrović in 1881. The Župa monastery is first mentioned at the tombstone of Jovica the Builder who took part in the renovation of the monastery in 1627.

Those bales of raw materials are sold to manufacturing companies and sent to a reclaiming facility. At the facility, any trash or dirt is sorted out. Then, the plastic from the yogurt cup is washed and ground into small flakes. A flotation tank then further separates contaminants, based on their different densities. Flakes are then dried, melted, filtered and formed into pellets. The pellets are shipped to product manufacturing plants, where they are made into new plastic products.
Manufacturers will then use those materials to make products like that yogurt cup all over again.
It's a far cry from the days of citizens separating all of their recyclables themselves and transporting it to area bins, making the process much easier for anyone to pick up on recycling.
The ease of that process, along with the continually growing cost of tipping fees incurred by cities for the use of landfills has made curbside recycling a no-brainer for the future of waste management in the city of Kokomo.
Will the city make money or recover all of its expenses initially? No. The point, however, is that the old model of dumping those recyclable material in a landfill is no longer viable, Kokomo Mayor Greg Goodnight said.
"About a year and a half ago, the argument asked 'does recycling allow you to break even, or does it pay for itself?' Goodnight said. "I can guarantee you wholeheartedly that picking up trash doesn't pay for itself."
Does it pay to recycle?
Picking up the trash, in fact, costs the city around $1 million per year in landfill tipping fees, Goodnight said.
Goodnight hopes making the switch to a curbside recycling program in April will divert between 35 percent and 40 percent of the materials sent to landfills in its first year.
The city expects to dispose of 25,500 tons of trash by the end of 2013, Goodnight said, costing about $1 million in landfill tipping fees.

Glenwood dropped its opener at the Boone Invitational Softball Tournament before bouncing back to win its final two games over the weekend.
"I think the three hour bus ride and a long week had us lagging a bit to start," said Glenwood coach Tim Stanton.
The Rams (16-9 overall, 6-4 in the Hawkeye 10 Conference) actually started well against Saydel, leading 3-1 heading into the fifth inning before the Eagles plated five runs in the bottom of the fifth to pull away.
Ram starter Lisa Nebel allowed 12 hits and six earned runs in the loss.
Class 4A, top 10 ranked Sioux City East shut out Glenwood 10-0 on Friday in four innings.
The Rams (15-4 overall, 9-1 in the Hawkeye 10 Conference) struggled at the plate and in the field on Friday, amassing just two hits on offense – singles by Justin Fisher and Wyatt Schulz – and committing four errors on defense leading to four unearned runs.
Cob Baker took the loss for Glenwood allowing 10 hits and six earned runs in three innings of work.

The East Mills baseball team suffered a 15-11 road loss on Friday at Villisca.
The Wolverines (2-7 overall, 2-4 in the Corner Conference) had led 7-2 after four innings but the Bluejays rallied to score seven runs in the fifth and four more in the sixth to pull away.
Fremont-Mills pushed a run across in the top of the 10th inning to escape Sidney with a 5-4 victory on Friday.
Mackenzy Lang was dominant on the hill for the Knights allowing five hits and four earned runs while striking out a career-high 16. But Lang didn't factor in the decision as the sophomore gave way to senior Clayton Wilson for the final two innings. Wilson earned the win striking ouT five of the six batters he faced.
Sioux City East edged Glenwood 5-3 in a non-conference softball match last Wednesday.
Both teams got off to good early starts at the plate with Glenwood leading 2-1 after an inning. But it was the Black Raiders' offense that took control from there, scoring two more runs in the second and again in the fourth.
"I was disappointed in our effort," said Glenwood coach Tim Stanton. "We play the way we're capable of playing. I give East credit, they played hard. And we looked like we were waiting for it to happen and it never did."
The Fremont-Mills softball team was 1-1 at the Lenox Softball Invitational on Saturday.
The Knights (7-4 overall, 3-2 in the Corner Conference) dropped a 6-5 decision to host Lenox and earned a 11-1 win over Adair-Casey on Saturday.
Kendall Fichter had six hits, including a home run and double in the two games. The senior catcher also drove in five runs and scored three runs.
Madison Powers and Brandi Beem each added three hits.
Powers took the loss in the circle against Lenox allowing five hits and three earned runs while striking out seven.
The East Mills baseball team dropped two games at the Clarinda Baseball Invitational on Saturday.
The host Cardinals jumped on the Wolverines for an early 7-0 lead after an inning and cruised to a 13-7 victory. In the tournament capper, Glenwood pounded 16 hits in a 16-1 win.
Austin Sommerla and Trey Byers each had a pair of hits combined in the two games.
The Glenwood Rams softball team picked up its fourth win of the season on Thursday with a 10-0, five inning win over Red Oak.
The Rams scored runs in all five innings, while defensively holding Red Oak to just three hits.
"Unlike Underwood when we stranded 17 people, tonight we got hits and we got them in," Glenwood Coach Tim Stanton said.
The Glenwood baseball team improved to 4-1 on the season with a 9-1 win over Red Oak on Thursday at A.C. Nuckolls Field.
The Rams scored all nine of their runs in the first four innings, including a four-run fourth to pull away from the winless Tigers.
The East Mills softball team picked up its second win of the season Friday with a 10-7 victory over Nishnabotna.
Devin Laughlin and Brooklyn Chickering each had three hits and Katie Sowers and Jessika Lyn two each for the Wolverines' offensive onslaught. Laughlin homered and drove in three runs.
Joni Laughlin earned her second win of the season, scattering eight hits and allowing two earned runs in the complete game.

From Inspired 'Dreams' To Documentary

In 2004, an underdog team of four students from the Valley's Carl Hayden High School overcame some big odds.
Filmmaker Mary Mazzio's new documentary, "Underwater Dreams," tells the story of the students then, but also catches up with them now and explores their continuing influence.
We spoke to Mazzio and asked what inspired her to make the film.

Colleen Cason: Flu shots trigger strong reactions
Banning gun magazines that hold 10 rounds or more isn't the only kind of shot that's controversial these days. Try asking folks where they stand on flu shots.
Back East, flu sufferers are stacked like cordwood in emergency rooms, while California so far has avoided such an epidemic. Public health officials warn, though, we are only one germy tourist away from a fluapalooza so to get the vaccine before the contagion hits.
Those same officials would have us believe when it comes to influenza, there are two kinds of people: Those who dutifully get the shot and those who risk getting infected and infecting others. The flu virus can live two to eight hours on a hard surface — like your co-worker's keyboard. Just sayin'.
But even the shots' biggest boosters will admit they are no panacea for pandemics. Creating each year's vaccine is not exactly a shot in the dark but it's part science and part guesswork. Flu viruses are skilled shape-shifters.
Studies show the vaccine is about 60 to 70 percent effective in the healthiest among us and far less reliable for the elderly, who stand the highest chance of dying from the virus.
So why should the robust take the time and trouble to get an injection that may not protect them? That topic is so tantalizing, psychologists studied what it takes to convince young, healthy folks to act against their self-interest and in the greater societal good by getting a shot. The answer? Cold cash.
While physical reactions to flu shots are rare and mild, I found locals well armed with reasons for and against them.
Heidi Procter, of Oxnard, and her 8-year-old son have never gotten one. This despite the fact Procter comes in contact with the public as a supermarket supervisor. And haven't we all reached around a half-eaten energy bar to pluck an item from the shelf?
"We don't get them, mostly because my mother didn't believe in them," she told me.
Mama passed down her preference for holistic treatments to her daughter. Procter favors to keep healthy by eating right, avoiding alcohol and cigarettes, and getting enough sleep.
She points out she and her son have never come down with influenza.
Says Procter, "It's working, so why mess with it?"
The thinking of Bruce Goldenson, a social worker with the county, is: Why mess around?
Goldenson gets a shot every year and doesn't buy the argument that because a vaccine may fail to protect him 40 percent of the time, he should avoid it.
He compares it to wearing seat belts.
"You may be lucky driving around without one for years, but there will be that one time it saves your head from going through the windshield."
Goldenson has a mixed marriage. His wife, Tricia Keen, avoids flu shots. The only time she got one years ago, she became deathly ill, she said.
Executive director of the Social Justice Fund for Ventura County, Keen believes the flu could be kept at bay without vaccinations if our culture discouraged people from going to work when they are ill.
Although Keen insists this is not the case with her, I suspect some folks use logical arguments to cover up the real reason they avoid the vaccine — needle phobia.
I say that because that used to be me — until Christmas Day 1999.
Perhaps I already was feverous on my way to Christmas dinner at my mother's house. I say this because I spotted a black mountain lion seated near the shoulder of the Lynn Road exit of Highway 101. The animal — all hundred or so pounds of it — sat completely calm. I blinked to reboot my eyeballs. But when I opened them, there it sat, taking in the passing parade of SUVs and minivans. Only later would I learn biologists doubt the black lions even exist.
"Are you sure it wasn't a Labrador retriever?" The Husby asked, after I told him about it.
The panther was an omen. By nightfall, I was running a high fever. Within days, I thought the muscle pain would kill me, if the fever didn't do me in first. By the time I sought medical intervention, I had pneumonia.
This explains why you could find me at the Ventura County Public Health clinic in Oxnard recently, waiting in a packed room for a flu shot.
I brave the lines Public Health because I'm a coward. Public Health nurses are machines when it comes to injections, and they deliver the quickest and least painful shots.
Officials from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report this year's flu vaccine matches the flu strains out there very well. Still, the disease kills anywhere from 3,000 to almost 50,000 people in a year.
Medical researchers believe this toll would drop if we stop accepting mediocre results from flu vaccine.
Pharmaceutical companies and public health agencies should work together and at least give it a shot.

Support Kickstarter funding for Memorias del Fuego!
Memorias Del Fuego is a feature-length documentary film about the disappearing stories of women who fought to win Nicaragua's Sandinista Revolution. The first portion, in which the filmmakers interviewed former Sandinista commanders, couriers, and journalists, was shot without any funding, but the project is raising funds to be able to return and capture the stories of female combatants from rural areas and FSLN party members.

Nicaragua Vive! 35 years since the triumph of the Sandinista Revolution
By Chuck Kaufman, National Co-Coordinator, Nicaragua Network/Alliance for Global Justice
July 19, 2014 marks the 35th anniversary of the Triumph of the Sandinista Revolution in Nicaragua. On that day, the Sandinista troops led by the nine commanders of the Sandinista Front for National Liberation (FSLN), entered the capital city of Managua where they were greeted by hundreds of thousands of jubilant Nicaraguans. The triumphant guerrillas found a country in ruins. The last dictator, Anastasio Somoza Debayle, had bombed the cities during the final offensive. When he fled the country two days earlier, he took not only the caskets containing his parents remains, but all the money in the national treasury as well. The Sandinistas were left with no money and a $1.9 billion international debt.
Memories of the 1979 Final Offensive of the Sandinista Revolution
By Katherine Hoyt (National Co-Coordinator, Nicaragua Network/Alliance for Global Justice)
Right after Bayardo [Dr. Bayardo Gonzalez of Matagalpa, Nicaragua] and I were married in 1967, my father had told us, "When 'comes the revolution,' you send us the kids!" At that time, the Somoza family looked well entrenched in power with no revolution in sight and we certainly had no kids. But, of course, the revolution did come and we did send the kids.

Frustrating Medicare catch: Who's an inpatient at the hospital and who's under observation?
Fox News, February 10, 2014
Hospitals say they're caught in the middle with the government challenging medical decisions, and imposing fines under ObamaCare if they admit too many in-patients... and then the patients return. Ashley Thompson of the American Hospital Association says, "hospitals are penalized for excessive readmissions and that is for any patient that's admitted. That might be one of reasons why physicians are more cautious admitting patients to the hospital." Scott Gottlieb is a doctor and analyst at the American Enterprise Institute and serves on a board that examines physician practices at hospitals.

2.63/5 rDev -19.6%
A - Does not pour like a typical blonde. It pours a hazy light amber or copper color with almost no head. The minimal head was an off-white color that quickly dissipated. No lacing. I think this beer could improve on the appearance.
S - To me this beer has very little aroma. What I can smell is a bit of sweet malt, almost buttery. I can also smell a trace of the pine and citrus from the hops.
T - The taste is somewhat similar to the smell. It has that sweet butter taste but it has a but of a bitter finish due to the hops. You can taste some of the citrus from the pine towards the end. It is a very subtle taste.
M - This beer has zero carbonation. It has a semi-medium body and the mouthfeel is extremely smooth. It is a very easy drinking beer. Could be a session beer.
O - Overall I think with some tweaking this beer has the potential to be good but it is just not there yet. The buttery taste is a bit overwhelming and the lack of carbonation is disappointing. I think for the craft drinker, this beer leaves much to be desired. I do, however, think this would be a good transition beer for the macro-lover looking to experience the world of craft beer.

Light pleasing beer for a summer evening. Could drink several of the these. Nice malty flavor. Very pleasing on the nose, nice finish. Would recommend to anyone preferring a lighter beer. A little light for my pallet as I usually prefer a stout but in this case was impressed with the flavor of this ale.

A- Poured out of a 22 oz bottle. Pours a Golden Honey color. Has a orangish tint with a slight haze. Very small 1/2 finger white head.
S- Smells sweet. You can definately smell the malts in this beer. Very prominant. I also detected a slight citrus smell and raisins
T - Just like the smell. Quite sweet up front. Big malt flavors in this beer. I was also able to detct hints of lemon on the finish. Finished very slightly bitter
M - Feels very light in the mouth. Not watery but smooth. It could use a bit more carbonation though.
O - Very enjoyable sessionable beer. I really enjoyed the malt flavors in this beer. Its says on the label to expect bold malts and they definately hit that aspect of the beer. Would be a great beer if it had more carbonation.

This poured out as a cloudy looking yellow color with a fluffy white head on top that leaves just a film over top of the beer. The smell of the beer had some citrusy grain and wheat aromas to it. The taste of the beer is a little sweet and tart at the same time. The mouthfeel of the beer is smooth and light. Overall this is a pretty good beer for summer time. I wouldn't go out of my way to get it though.

Hazed yellow-gold color with nice cap of soapy white head, good lacing. Scent is as advertised, orange and lemon peel for citrus, corriander and pepper for spice and chamomile for a light floral taste all backed with a light bready yeast. Taste follows scent... a dead ringer for Hoegaarden if there ever was one, and props for being able to duplicate it exactly. Medium bodied, active carbonation, light citrusy sweet aftertaste. A nice Wit with some strong flavors and extra kudos for being able to mimic another beer spot on.

a: This was a slightly hazy golden color. It was served to me with a thin fizzy cap.
s: Mild banana and cloves plus hints of other spices. Everything a wit is supposed to have, just not quite enough of them.
t: Tastes a bit better than it smells. Wheaty bananas and some spicy cloves. Tasty, but on the mild side.
m: Nicely chewy with fizzy carbonation.
d: Not the best wit around, but this was refreshing with no off flavors.

On-tap at the Brew-pub, Allentown location.
Served with an orange slice garnish that I have no use for. Cloudy, hazy, yellow body with a small white head that leaves a few islands of head.
Smells of citrus, that wheat twang, and coriander.
I'm not sure if this is supposed to be a hoegaarden clone of sorts, or just their version of a wit. Either way, I like this one better than Hoegaarden. It could just be the freshness, but this is definitely a tasty beer. A good wheat twang some mixes with some coriander and other herbal notes. Big citrus flavor in the finish.
Slightly creamy, moderate carbonation.
This stuff is refreshing and pretty easy to throw back. A good beer at a great price.

it appeared haze yellow typical for the style
very nice head thick clinging to the glass for a little while .
good citrus smell not to heavy.
it had a nice taste lemon and wheat went down nice refreshing not to filling.
the only thing I didn't like was the aftertaste almost watered down not typical for this style ,like it was missing something. Good would drink it again but could be better.

It appears like they're making this one a regular, and that's probably a good thing. This ale has a most of the typical wit flavors like coriander, lemon, and creamy wheat, but everything seems amplified. That takes the balance of a bit and it's not as subtle as other wits, but darn it's still tasty. Definitely a beer to try if you make it to the Brew Works.

Report: Jovan Belcher texted threat
Former Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher sent a text message to a secret girlfriend less than two months ago saying he "would shoot" longtime girlfriend Kasandra Perkins "if she didn't leave him alone," according to police reports obtained by the Kansas City Star.
The texts expressed turmoil and frustration, and Belcher's secret girlfriend thought he was joking at the time, the newspaper reported Tuesday.
But on Dec. 1, Belcher shot and killed Perkins after an argument and then drove to Arrowhead Stadium and killed himself with a different handgun in the parking lot in front of his coaches and Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli.
The police case file obtained by the Star reveal much about Belcher's relationship with Perkins.
Among the revelations is that he missed a team meeting a few weeks before the murder-suicide. Chiefs head coach Romeo Crennel told police that Belcher blamed his absence on Perkins, saying she stayed out all night and left him to care for their 3-month-old daughter at home.
Belcher had previously complained to his secret girlfriend that Perkins "knew exactly how to press his buttons and make him angry." Belcher said Perkins had threatened "to take all his money and his child" if they split up, the reports indicate.
Police found 10 apparent gunshot wounds on the front of Perkins' body and five wounds on her backside. Four bullets were in her body. One bullet hole was in the bathroom floor, under Perkins' body, suggesting she might have been shot while on the floor.
After Belcher shot Perkins, he headed to Arrowhead Stadium, where he saw Pioli in the parking lot. The police reports said Belcher told Pioli, "I'm sorry, Scott. I've done a bad thing to my girlfriend already," and asked to speak with Crennel and linebackers coach Gary Gibbs.
As Belcher held a gun to his head, Crennel tried to talk him out of suicide. Belcher walked away from the coaches and Pioli as police arrived at the scene, and Crennel shouted, according to the report, "You're taking the easy way out!"
Belcher then knelt behind a minivan, made the sign of the cross and fired his final shot into his head.

Beer Dog At the Beach
Posted by Break.com Staff on May. 01, 2006
Posted by Break.com Staff on May. 01, 2006
the girl eating sosich
A couple of more beers, and those chicks will be over in a flash...
 hahaha
im sure that dog: was lickin his ass or eatin sh*t before he got that beer
that dog probably has: had the worst hangovers ever!!
The Dog:: Is not a chocolate lab. Its a German Shorthair pointer. I have a Dog that does the same thing. This breed is smart as hell
Fake!: That's obviously a cat in a dog suit for halloweeen
yeeeee haw: lets drink some beeeer
My neighbor: has a chocolate lab too. He's awesome, looks exactly the same.
Needs to learn one more thing...: Hey buddy, think you can find me a beer AND a bikini top???...
Fake?: WHO THE F*CK CARES IF IT'S FAKE OR NOT. EVERY F*CKING VIDEO SOME AHOLES CALLIN IT FAKE. NO ONE CARES IF ITS REAL OR NOT.
Smart dog.: you'd never see a stupid fuckin cat do that!
LIKE OMG FUCKING SWEEt: i need one of those dogs thtd be fucking AWSOME
Lol, somewhat fake.: When the dog runs to and from the beer, the girls are sitting up. Then, when he opens the cooler, they're laying down!
Yes . .: Now open your can so it can explode in your face after your "best friend" just shook the crap out of it running back . . . That, they don't show ya.
beerdog: hillbilly on vacation
how much?: $5,000 down
haha: I just took hold of a newborn kitten and drove needles into it's eyes.. Then, I cut one of it's legs off and watched it twitch in pain on the ground for about an hour. Then I cut another of it's legs off. After I was bored of that, I just started hitting it in the face repeatedly.. Then as a finale, I took the whole litter and put them into a pillow case, tied it at the top, and tossed it into the pool
whoa: almost gaurented that was placed like they practised it over and over and put something on the can so the dog would get it but that dog would be handy to have around
nice...: I want that sweet dog, think about it... FREE BEAR!
Obviously____Real: nah thats just our niggers lol
...: Now that's what I call a sticky situation
P.S.: get your own damn beer!
quota: "Southerners are the best" by video critic the only problem with this statement is that he forgot to finish the sentence, he meant: "southerners are the best when they are being hung from trees those hippie incestial loving baby making, gene farting, mother fucking, dad sucking, brother humping, sister groping red necked, penis limping, ass throbbing, keggar throwing, herpes passing, STD machines"
VideoCritic: thanx man im from tennessee lol
so real: this is definetly real, since i had a dog who used to give me blow jobs, man's best friend indeed. also, it is real because the owner gives the dog the beer off camera so the dog gets the beer just to drink it himself. I also think my brother likes to get his asshole tickled with cocks and I am totally fine with gay's i mean, ill watch anything with david schwimmer in it
Cool, but set up: This dog is cool, but you can tell that this is a setup from the camera work, im not trying to say this is a 'robot dog' or anything, just it looks like this was planned. Still, its a very smart dog, and a good video none the less.
Hey Smokey, can you find an ounce for me?: Good goody doggy.
julesasner: that was one of the most hipocrytical things i've ever heard anyone say. you called someone ignorant for having a certain type of voice putting them in a stereotype about southerners. YOU are the ignorant one cuz you obviously have no clue what you are talking about. i know many people that live down south that definitely do not fit into your little lame ass stereotype. go die, faggot. other than that this video is cool, my dog is trained well but she's old now so all she does is sit aro
that dogs needs to be ........: Cloned immediately
haha cat: wow bears fan that made me laugh....ever see that video where some kid is just screaming at his cats...i can just imagine telling a cat to get me a beer. i wish i had a dog that could run to my "pusher" mans house for me
Shaken, not stirred: Brillian trick, but wouldnt it fizz up in his face when he opens it? waste of a beer to me..now..get him to give the beer to a mate and watch the mate get beer in the face, that would be cool
i wish my girlfriend can do that: what obedience school did you send that dog?
My cat..: I tried to train my cat to do that but it just wont listen to me..
i cant stop laughing at that guys voice: Dumbass southerners have the most retarded yolkal ass voices ever. That accent screams im an ignorant white trash moron. LOL @ video.
I tried,: to do this with my dog and my fridge but he always left the fucker open.
training: this is an honest question how can I train my dog to do that it is one of the coolest tricks ive seen dogs do
first ohh shit just kidding: fuck you third
Unless it was at JFK's house for dinner you dip shit
cats will never be able to be this bad ass. period
FAKE: You post those comments
.: no skaven, the cat would have me giving it some dry ass kibble bits when i damn well feel like it. dogs are so much better than cats
No: the cat would have you getting him a beer.

Glee 'to highlight gay suicides'
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
It wasn't that long ago that Pink News reported that "Glee will gain a Christian character next season who disapproves of homosexuality."
While it would be a good thing if that eposide did happen, I also fear that Glee is preaching to the converted…
IT's true they will be incorporating a Christian character but that doesn't mean they can't highlight the problem of homosexual suicides as well!! they appeal the masses! I also agree with Zefrog it would be like preachin to the choir I'd say most of theviewers if not gay would be gay friendly!! BUt that doesn't mean we are aware of these tragic situations or that we are actively doin somethin about it!! It can only help spread the word!!! Go GLEE!!!!!!!!
I am in two minds about whether the media attention over the suicides is a good thing or a bad thing.
On the one hand, it is good because it *might* make some homophobes realise that their actions can and do destroy lives. Or it might make some formerly apathetic bystanders step in to stop the bullying.
On the other hand, according to a chapter in the fascinating book "Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion" by Robert Cialdini, whenever a suicide is widely reported in the media, it often has an unintended consequence of causing more people to commit suicide. I know that sounds bizarre, but there is research to back up the claim. From my memory of reading the book, I think it works as follows. Some suicidally depressed people put off committing suicide because they know that suicide is a social taboo. But when a suicide is widely reported in the media, this can reduce the taboo nature of suicide a bit, to the point that it gives some suicidally depressed people "permission" to kill themselves.
It's a nasty choice. If bullying-related suicides go unreported, then that lets bullies continue their nasty work. But if bullying-related suicides (actually, suicides due to *any* reason) are reported, then it can cause some depressed people to give themselves permission to commit suicide.
I just watched the "It gets better" video on YouTube and was blown away by how positive and heartfelt its message is. Hopefully that video will provide sufficient hope to some bullied students to give them the will to survive.
Dave – I think they may have decided against introducing a Christian character as they already have two in Mercedes and Quinn as well as Jewish characters, Puck and Rachel. The episode that I believe this article referred to, "Grilled Cheesus", was aired last night and I must say, is one of my favourite episodes so far, managing to make me cry several times! It was extremely well written, presenting both anti- and pro-religious arguments in a balanced way and no character suddenly turns around and says "You're right, I believe in God!".
Whether they still intend to introduce a right-wing Christian character remains to be seen, but I doubt it as they already have a fair few religious characters.

Northern Pass developers say they have new route
Developers of the Northern Pass hydroelectric project said on Monday that they have identified a new route for the 1,200-megawatt transmission lines through the North Country, but did not provide further details.
In an announcement posted as a "project update" on the Northern Pass website, spokesmen for Northeast Utilities said, "We are in the process of finalizing this new proposal and will soon be prepared to announce its specific details. This proposal was created in consideration of concerns raised regarding potential view impacts and private property issues."
The new route will be submitted to the New Hampshire Site Evaluation Commission for consideration and review.
The web post also states, "In response to the feedback we received, we have spent the past year identifying routing options that would locate the line on land that we own or that has easements we have obtained from willing sellers, and positions the line in a manner that reduces potential view impacts as much as possible."

Well, this is a re-do of the original Thendara.
This was a gift for a family member for Christmas. While touching up the face (see it here), I messed it up – badly.
It wasn't what I wanted anyhow; I didn't like the cheap look of the decal and shiny copper. I wanted a more sophisticated, tooled look, hence what I have here.
The wife hates it, and likes the other one. However, the new owner, when asked which one she'd prefer, chose this one – as did 90% of you guys in this thread.
Sometimes, she is wrong! LOL!

Awesome clock – When you hammered the copper did you raise the numbers from the back side ?
Thank you for sharing

You raise the numbers from the backside first; when it's all done, then you dimple the face with a blunt tool, like a really dull large nail.

Pashley, I was just skimming forums and found yours. I looked at your site and saw this clock. It was quite beautiful, would be my favorite on the site.
Hope you have been able to get some of these items into a customers hands and sold. Fantastic work.

Thanks, Chris. Actually, I was kinda surprised how many people like that piece. On eBay, it's my most "watched" piece.

Lubbock police went door to door in response to reports of a missing child possibly taken during a car theft on Tuesday afternoon, but now police are saying the child was not in the car.
Police say a man stole a car parked at Kmart at University Avenue and 66th Street around 2:30 p.m.
They were originally told that a child, a young girl, was sitting in the passenger seat when the car was taken. Authorities found the car in a alley near 78th Street and Avenue U, but are still searching for the suspect in that area.
The girl was found safe around 4:30 p.m.
Police have established a perimeter around the area and a DPS helicopter is assisting with the search.
Police have not released a suspect description at this time.
