The RNC may have shelled out $150k to turn Governatrix VP hopeful Sarah Palin into Caribou Barbie, but how much is Barack Obama shelling out for his threads?
Our cameraman managed to get up close and personal with Barack in Virginia today to ask the $150,000 question.
I would like to know how much money the flag pin was? Also, IF she is really going to give the cloths to charity, and which one!
Does Mahamed Obomber face Mecca when he prays?
had my wonderings about the readership of tmz and the comments here have totally validated them. total lack of critical and cognitive thinkers
Democrats are so funny. Each time the elections come around each party does spending for clothes, etc. How about Michelle Obamas $ 500 room service tab at the Waldorf Astoria? Huh? How about that....on FOOD and DRINKS! This election is so one sided it's pitiful. Obama is nothing but a lying smooth talker and thank god....I haven't become another zombie follower....so Michelle's $500 tab is ok for drinks and food? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM EXACTLY!
PS.....ACORN.........HAHA RIDICULOUS...my fav. is that his own right hand man running mate said he couldn't handle national security two days ago hahahahah CLASSIC!
And to those of you who keep posting comments about how Michelle Obama stayed at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City and spent $4000 on a single meal, sorry to break it to you, but the New York Post, the newspaper that originally reported that story, has already retracted it, said it was completely false, apologized, and added that not only did Obama not order the food they claimed she did, she didn't even stay at the Waldorf Astoria.
So take ur propaganda elsewhere
Hey, I think we've all been behind Michele Obama in the check out line, huh???
So what do the haters want? To take the clothes off the children's backs? Obviously this expenditure was approved by McCain.
Where will Sarah Palin be selling those clothes? I would be interested in her underwear.
That must be his drug dealer in back of him
This story broke LAST NIGHT... you're late TMZ!
Barrack Hussein Obama and his wife Michelle ordered expensive cavair and champagne. They believe they will win this election by a landslide.
4. had my wonderings about the readership of tmz and the comments here have totally validated them. total lack of critical and cognitive thinkers
Posted at 5:58PM on Oct 22nd 2008 by medeak
Obama spent $437,144 on food, more than twice as much as the McCain campaign. I guess that was all the lobster Michelle was ordering from room service.
My friend when to college with Obama and said he was anti-semitic. Why is Levin so pro Obama when he is anti-semitic to his race.

Matt Towery,I think you are wrong!!! Monday 's Convention wasn't the best but consider the circumstances. The GOP's main concern was for the safety of the people.does that not mean anything??? As far as Christie's speech is concerned,he did a great job!! Your article is the only one I have read that said it was bad. Tuesday and Wednesday nights speeches were fantastic.They made up for the weather problems Monday. I hope you will be as critical of the democratic Convention as you are the republicans.

Nope, I must agree, Christie somehow miss it.
I yelled to the tv set during his speech, ".. dude, this convention is about Romney's candidacy .."
Really a let down.

Really a let down.
Halfway through the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., one thing was obvious. Despite great planning and perfect execution by the head of the committee responsible for day-to-day operations of the event, longtime RNC committeeman Alec Poitevint, the Tampa event was a burden to pull off. Here is the real story behind the 2012 convention.
First, the weather -- anyone who has ever lived in Florida knows that the ultimate paths of tropical storms and hurricanes are impossible to predict. When in law school in Florida, I sat through days of a hurricane that just parked itself in the Gulf, close...

Company steps in to improve Sedgley beauty spot
12:00pm Friday 23rd May 2014 in News
BIG hearted company LaFarge Tarmac have been helping to improve facilities at Baggeridge Country Park by resurfacing eroded pathways.
LaFarge stepped in help the Sedgley beauty spot after moving their offices next door and provided the park with more than 100 tons of recycled material which is currently being used to resurface the pathways.
Councillor Mary Bond, South Staffs cabinet member for Environmental Services said: "This donation from Lafarge is incredibly welcome and gives us the opportunity to update pathways and improve accessibility around the park.
"Previously we had to rely on hand gritting the surfaces, so this will not only make the job easier, but it also means, that no matter what the weather, people can still enjoy all that Baggeridge has to offer".

Sport reflects something of the joy in God
10:00am Monday 14th July 2014 in News
POOR Brazil. How that humiliating World Cup semi final defeat hurt the great football-loving nation, and how it revealed the importance of footballing success for them.
And Roger Federer, how his defeat by Novak Djokovic wounded him, although he had already won Wimbledon several times before.
At the very top level sporting success is crucial, and even coming second won't comfort the loser. Rudyard Kipling's poem If is quoted over the changing rooms of the Wimbledon players, and how apt a challenge it is to these great athletes: If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster, And treat those two impostors just the same.
Can the loser of an epic match cope with the experience, and can the winner manage not to make this success the only thing that matters in life? It is, after all, 'just a game'.
Bill Shankly, a former manager of Liverpool Football Club in its glory days, was reported to say that Liverpool winning was not a matter of life and death…it was far more important.
Sir Henry Newbolt's poem Vitae Lampada 1897 is about a schoolboy cricketer coming in to bat last with 'ten to win' in a 'blinding light' on 'a bumping pitch' – urged to 'play up and play the game' in courage and resilience. The boy grew up to be a soldier in a bloody battle, and recalled his cricketing experience to urge himself to bravery in the battle against all the odds.
Sport is 'just a game', and yet it also can be formative for character-building and bonding with the team. Kipling's verses urge honesty and yet risk taking, with the realities of starting again when it all goes wrong.
At its best, sport contains human decency and respect to opponents, and honest playing of the game, not cheating. It is a great pity to us older players of cricket that 'walking' by a batsman who knows he did snick the ball but the umpire does not, is now a rarity.
Sport is a game, but games matter and nations do care about their particular specialist sport, hence Brazil's deep disappointment. Sport seems to be something given in human DNA as well as cultural development: we love to compete, to run, climb, jump, hit a ball, kick a ball.
The Greek Olympics go back nearly three millennia. Sport can be distorted horribly, as in the gladiatorial 'games' of mass killing in the Roman Colosseum in front of crowds baying for blood: a dehumanizing experience. But at its best sport can even point us to the gifts of creation, speed, grace, balletic beauty, perfect timing – as can music and art.
It is part of God's creation and the non rational, 'fun', side of life, at the top end it is utterly riveting and a reminder of human skill, courage and decency, all given to us by God for our enjoyment and challenge. We might even say it reflects something of the joy in God.

Black Spiders, originally put together to celebrate the passing of a dear friend and to tear up some classic rock n' roll tunes in his honour, led by Pete 'Spider' Spiby with side-kick Ozzy 'Ozzy' Lister they set about writing tall tales and wrestling monstrous riffs. Thusly, and with great determination they began demoing tracks for a Long Player with past cohort Mark 'Dark Shark' Thomas. Killer shows followed with likeminded friends and heroes such as; SuperSuckers, and Dwarves…....audiences were duly slain!

Let's face it, it was campaign season and Obama had already declared AlQuada dead after he single-handedly took out Bin Laden, (or at least that's the idea he had wanted to create). When the attack didn't exactly fit the political narative, the talking points went out, to make it fit. Rice and Clinton were up to their eye brows in the political cover-up and should be prosecuted as 'accessories after the fact' to murder. Maybe they too can get premptive pardons and executive privalege. When lied to, the american people get indignant, and rightly so.

Sporting News ranks Jahii Carson as nation's fourth-best point guard
Originally published: Jun 10, 2013 - 2:02 pm
A freshman last season, Carson averaged 18.5 points and 5.1 assists per game on the way to being Co-Pac-12 Freshman of the Year. He helped the Sun Devils to 22 wins and a spot on the NCAA Tournament bubble, and while the team is losing some talent, much is expected of them as long as the 5-foot-10 star is running the offense.
After all, he is one of the best point guards in the country. Sporting News' Mike DeCourcy ranked the nation's top-10 floor generals, with the Sun Devil coming in fourth, trailing Oklahoma State's Marcus Smart, Kentucky's Andrew Harrison and Indiana's Yogi Ferrell.
Carson is a high-risk/high-reward player, in part because he had to be. In order for ASU to come as close as it did to reaching the NCAAs last season, Carson had to gamble more than some of the other great playmakers. If he can manage his turnover numbers and make a few more 3s and, most important, get to the tournament, his talents could be truly appreciated. It's hard�no, all but impossible�to make All-American from the NIT.
As DeCourcy notes, Carson's image would be boosted with a successful season from the team as a whole, though it's hard (and perhaps unfair) to fault a player for his supporting cast.
At any rate, Carson is no longer ASU's secret, and it will be up to him to continue to live up to the top billing he is receiving.

JJ Abrams leaks spoiler in response to 'Star Wars' set pic leaks
As the director of choice for Hollywood's most prestigious projects, JJ Abrams tries to run a tight ship.
So when nearly 40 photos from the set of "Star Wars Episode VII" were leaked on TMZ, Abrams decided to sew some speculation himself.
— Bad Robot (@bad_robot) June 4, 2014
But in that tweet is a possible confirmation that Han Solo's spaceship will in fact make an appearance: The card is sitting on what appears to be the space chess board on which the android C-3PO and co-pilot Chewbacca squared off in the Millennium Falcon's rec room.
Seriously guys, as cool as glimpses are of the first new "Star Wars" films that have the potential to be good since the original trilogy, don't make Abrams stop the car and make us walk the 12 parsecs home.

Veracode, Inc., the leader in cloud-based application security testing, has been listed at number 20 on Forbes' annual ranking of America's Most Promising Companies -- a list of 100 privately held, high-growth companies with bright futures. The top 50 companies on the 2013 list appear in the February 11 print issue of Forbes and a slide show of the top 25 can be found on Forbes.com.
With application-driven data breaches increasing each year, there is an ever-growing need to secure the world's software supply chain. Enterprise organizations have assumed unbounded risk as their investment in outsourced, commercial, SaaS, mobile and open source software increases. Veracode helps protect these organizations by identifying software vulnerabilities across the supply chain, and working with customers, developers and software vendors to correct flaws. The Veracode platform helps ensure applications, and the organizations that use them, are protected against hackers and data loss, while encouraging developers to deliver more secure software.
"It is a great honor to be recognized by Forbes as one of America's Most Promising Companies," said Bob Brennan, CEO of Veracode. "It further validates the amazing work of our employees and recognizes our continued growth, which is driven by the critical need to secure the world's software. We take great pride in working with software providers and large enterprises to make them more competitive and more secure."
In 2012, Veracode experienced unprecedented growth, expanding its number of employees by 30 percent and completing its first acquisition, which deepened the company's mobile security offering. Veracode boasts a growing customer base across healthcare, financial services, media and manufacturing verticals, which include 25% of the Global 20.
Forbes Methodology
For the Most Promising list, Forbes strove for a holistic gauge of young, privately-held companies, trying to pin down their trajectories by looking at a slew of variables. Over the course of six months Forbes reviewed thousands of applications, and the final assessment is based on growth (both in sales and hiring), quality of management team and investors, margins, market size and key partnerships. Forbes turned to CB Insights, a Manhattan-based data research firm that specializes in assessing private companies, to refine the search.
About Veracode

The Veracode platform provides the fastest, most comprehensive solution to improve the security of internally developed, purchased or outsourced software applications and third-party components.

EDMONTON – A Grade 4 student who was allegedly involved in a serious incident at a Sherwood Park elementary school is no longer a student there.
Parents, some of whom had expressed concern for their children's safety at Brentwood Elementary, received a letter from Elk Island Public Schools Friday afternoon.
"As a follow-up to the letter you received on May 5, we want to advise you that the Grade 4 student referenced in that letter will no longer be attending Brentwood Elementary. Along with our community partners, we continue to work with the family and child to ensure they receive support and assistance as needed."
The May 5 letter said the student "was involved in a situation April 22, 2014 that has caused a great deal of concern." It offered few details, citing privacy legislation, and said the student would remain at the school but be supervised by staff at all times. He was to take separate recess and lunch breaks and be kept out of classrooms with other pupils.
Some parents said school officials hadn't done enough.
"My eight-year-old … was up to one o'clock in the morning crying, having a tummy ache, not wanting to go to school," Chantal Thompson told Global News Tuesday.
READ MORE: Parents concerned after incident with student at Sherwood Park school
Thompson, whose 10, eight and six-year-old children attend Brentwood Elementary, kept her kids home from school for a few days after hearing about the incident.
"I'm doing this for my children, the safety of the kids. I want them to feel safe at school and if they don't even feel safe there then why send them?"
She says she's relieved the child will no longer be attending Brentwood.
"I'm just relieved. My daughter came through the doors with a big smile," Thompson explained. "The relief from her, the weight off her shoulders, she was just so happy."
While relieved, Thompson says she's not pleased with how the situation was handled by the school division. She believes all parents who have kids at Brentwood Elementary should have been notified of the incident right away.
"It took two weeks for us to actually get the letter," she said. "If it wasn't for a certain mom to call parents, to call a meeting, then we probably still would be in the dark… we should have known about this the day after."
Elk Island Public Schools says it is committed to improving and will conduct a review of its practices.
"A Brentwood Elementary parent has volunteered to be part of this review process," read the letter sent home Friday.
Brentwood Elementary School has about 500 students and 45 staff members.

Police chase of Ferrari hits 100 mph in Olympia
Police say a chase that led to a Ferrari racing at 100 mph through downtown Olympia before crashing into a parked car and a home began when an officer saw the car traveling at 50 mph in the city.
OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — Police say a chase that led to a Ferrari racing at 100 mph through downtown Olympia before crashing into a parked car and a home began when an officer saw the car traveling at 50 mph in the city.
Police reports say a terrified male passenger who accepted a ride from the Ferrari driver, then called 911 to say the driver wouldn't let him out, finally jumped from the car when it momentarily slowed Sunday night. The passenger suffered minor injuries.
The Olympian reports police arrested 42-year-old Joseph Shaun Goodman. The man reportedly is a 2013 graduate of Thurston County's DUI court, which allows those who complete the program to have a DUI charge dismissed.
In court Monday, a Thurston County judge ordered Goodman held for investigation of false imprisonment, felony eluding and felony DUI. Bail was set at $75,000.
Goodman's lawyer Paul Strophy said his client is a local business owner and a devoted father of two daughters.

Good Evening to all my Friends!
I hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. For me, this entire week has been a true blessing. I've had the opportunity to spend time enjoying the company of aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, friends and more importantly my brothers, sister and our Mom and Dad. We've enjoyed good food, reflected upon Thanksgivings past and our memories of Kim Brad and Jill, as we also contemplated with a joyous optimism the potential reality of holidays yet to be seen.
If I had to choose one word to best describe the one thing that has brought me the most joy over these last few days, I think that word for me would be "TOGETHER".
No more computerized operator asking someone to accept charges, no more listening to children's laughter in the background as we spoke, no more conversations about our hope for a time in the future when we would be reunited and those sad holiday phone calls wouldn't be necessary. Our hopes have become reality and I see no reason to allow our hardships past to infiltrate our thought process as we "move forward" into a new era of life. For me, my memories carry me forward with a great appreciation for the blessings I have known in the past. Kim, Brad and Jill are a part of me and I honor them by being the best person I can possibly be and by making the most of my life and by trying to have a positive effect on all those I may encounter.
So I give thanks on this Thanksgiving Day, as I recognize the gift of Freedom that a gracious God has given me. I'm thankful for steadfast family, unwavering friends and for a legal team that proved to be second to none - ever and of course an honest, sincere fact weighing jury. I'm thankful for opportunity and for potential. I am thankful for all of you who have sacrificed so much personally, professionally and financially, enabling all of us to have the opportunity to share these messages of Thanksgiving while being free to make the choice to do so.
I am a blessed man and I give pause to look skyward to The One actually responsible for seeing us all through these last 13 years and simply say "thank You", and I pray for continuous blessing and God's presence in all of our lives as we continue to be positive and "move forward" with appreciation for every opportunity we have to share each other's company, TOGETHER!
Love to All, Dave

In the final 36 minutes of the Thunder's 107-97 loss to Memphis on Wednesday night, the most fight shown by anyone in an Oklahoma City jersey might not have even taken place on the court.
Oklahoma City Thunder: Grizzlies outslug Thunder; Zach Randolph, Kendrick Perkins ejected
After getting ejected late in the fourth quarter, Thunder center Kendrick Perkins and Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph had their altercation spill over into the locker room area, according to multiple eyewitnesses and other nearby arena and team employees who overheard the commotion.
It was the culmination of a night of frustration for Oklahoma City, which saw its five-game winning streak come to a screeching halt following its second lackluster home performance on the early part of this season.
Memphis pushed pass OKC in a dominant second quarter that saw the Grizzlies outscore the Thunder 36-15 and turn a 10-point deficit at the end of the first quarter into an 11-point halftime lead.
It was all downhill from there. The Thunder never wrestled the lead back and went on to trail by as many as 16 points in the second half before falling to 6-3 and 4-2 inside Chesapeake Energy Arena.
"That second quarter, when we were outscored 21 points, it was tough to overcome," said Thunder coach Scott Brooks.
"I thought in that second quarter they were playing good basketball. Their confidence level became extremely high. Defensively, they were putting bodies on us, and those four 3s in that second quarter really gave them a lift that we had trouble overcoming."
The Thunder had just put together one of its most impressive opening quarters this season, holding Memphis (6-1) to 20 points on 32 percent shooting. Russell Westbrook was a passing wizard, racking up five of his season-high 13 assists in the opening quarter to help three Thunder players score at least eight points in the period and six different guys move the scoreboard.
But over the next 12 minutes, the Grizzlies made 11 of 23 shots, going 4-for-5 from 3-point range and 6-for-6 from the foul line. Nothing illustrated how in sync Memphis' offense was in that period more than its nine assists on 11 made field goals.
About the only thing the Grizzlies did wrong in the period was turn it over.
That lone giveaway was the Grizzlies' only turnover in the first half. It came on a bad Jerryd Bayless pass — 19 minutes, 8 seconds into the game.
"In that first quarter we had a lot of things going. Our offense was going and our defense was going," Brooks said. "When that happens, we usually lead after one quarter and I thought that first quarter was good. And then they hit us with a lot of offense."

The South Carolina Highway Patrol said Sunday that one man is dead following a two-vehicle collision south of Travelers rest along U.S. 25 in Greenville County.
Coroner Kent Dill said a pick-up truck and a box truck, pulling a trailer, were headed in opposite directions on White Horse Road (U.S. 25), around 6:45 a.m. He said the box truck crossed the center line and crashed into the smaller truck, near the Hunts Bridge Road intersection.
Troopers said the driver of the northbound headed Toyota Tacoma pick-up was pronounced dead on scene. Dill identified the man as 52 year-old James Rochester. He said he was wearing a seatbelt during the wreck.
Troopers told us, the driver of the box truck, identified as 43-year-old Aaron Miller, was charged with not having a valid driver's license and driving recklessly.
The SC Highway Patrol is still investigating the wreck.

It's prom season, and for many parents, that means shelling out big bucks for their daughter's gown. However, a local radio station is working to make sure every young woman can afford to go.
"Gown Town", sponsored by Q100, is offering high school girls more than 700 dresses for just $30. The gowns are new or gently-worn.
"We have dresses for every size and shape and in every color," said Cassie Young, Q100 social media director. Station listeners donated the gowns.
Proceeds will benefit the Eating Disorders Information Network, an organization that raises awareness and works toward the prevention of eating disorders.
Each shopper will have only 15 minutes to try up to three dresses.
"Shoppers should wear a sports bra and shorts, since dressing room lines can be long," said Young.
"Gown Town" begins at noon, Sunday, March 9 at Gwinnett Place Mall in Duluth. You'll find them on the second level, right outside of Macy's. Arrive early.

Eric Picard | August 28, 2006 | Comments
Why the up-and-coming format is such an important development.
The :05 video ad format is rapidly gaining momentum, so today I'll call out the reasons it's such an important development.
The :05 standard is beginning to take hold in broadcast TV because of the DVR. DVR users frequently fast-forward through advertising. Being human, they typically fast-forward too far into the content. So they rewind. Research shows they're seeing the last five seconds or so of the last ad in the pod.
Logically, the last ad is becoming more valuable. The new trend is for networks to place a :05 ad at the very end of a pod. Expect to see more :05 ads in that position.
The Annoyance Factor
When it comes to broadband video, there are even more compelling reasons to begin investigating the :05 format, especially when you consider new video consumption in emerging media such as portable video players.
We've done significant research into video ads' consumer annoyance factor. One of our strongest findings is consumer tolerance for ads lasts five to seven seconds then immediately turns to annoyance:
Given the very short durations of typical broadband video, this format provides a short brand and message exposure opportunity within a consumer's tolerance range. This should drive video consumption in a streaming Web page scenario as well as acceptance of video advertising. We're currently doing research on consumer acceptance of :05 video ad pods within longer-form content. I'll probably be able to share results with you in the coming months.
When you extend the video annoyance factor to other video media, such as mobile phones and portable video players, we believe (and should have data in coming months to back up) that video ad tolerance will be a significant hindrance factor to growth. Certainly other factors must be addressed, such as counting, tracking, and cross-media frequency of video messages.
Frequency by the Numbers
I'd also like to see research on the value of the :05 format as it relates to frequency. When a consumer's exposed to a :30 brand message in broadcast and the advertiser's goal is a reach of 3-5, is there enough impact in extending those frequencies through online video?
What about long-form video content (e.g., TV shows) offered either through streaming Web views or in portable video scenarios? Will consumers tolerate a :30 pre-roll ad, followed by content with several :05 ads by the same advertiser (and perhaps others) spread throughout with extensions of the original message? We saw ABC inserting just a few ads in primetime content offered streaming from its Web site. It denoted in the player exactly where the ads would show up. But it limited the number of ads to just a few.
Clearly, ABC is monetizing online content less effectively with only a few video ads, compared to the 20 or so ads per half hour of content on TV. Say the publisher is getting $40 CPM (define) for a primetime commercial. It has 20 commercials in a 30-minute show (a conservative estimate) and reaches 10 million households. That breaks down to about $400,000 per ad, or $8 million per 30-minute show.
If that same show ran online with the same number of ads, we can expect a $35 CPM for premium broadband video pre-rolls. If there's just one pre-roll and 5 million additional people watch the show online, we get an incremental $125,000 in revenue for the network for that show. With four additional ads inserted, that's $625,000.
What happens if we sell pods of :05 ads similar to the broadcast experience? With a conservative $10 CPM, we get $150,000
per ad in incremental revenue for the network. It's also a more palatable user experience. What if we turned those :05 ads into ads with enhanced targeting or with the ability to let the user telescope into a long-form ad? If we just get a 50 percent CPM lift, this would turn into about $225,000 of incremental revenue per ad per episode. It turns a dud of a show into a much more interesting investment. With targeting and enhanced ad formats, we could easily double revenue.
The industry must focus on pushing the :05 format to increase the amount of inventory available to advertisers and they can start creating short edits of ads for use in other media. Right now there are very few 1:05 video ads available to run on broadband, let alone :05 ads. We need creatives to master this format.
We must also lock down the definition of this short-form ad format. There's work going on in the EU toward an :08 standard (about half of a :15). If we're going to go short, we should do it in a way that will make consumers happy while retaining brand value.

Suns Strokes: Lethargic effort equates to thunderous beatdown in OKC
Originally published: Feb 8, 2013 - 8:27 pm
Sure, you could read the box score and know who won, but we all know that won't tell you everything that happened in a basketball game. So, we will give you Suns Strokes, providing you with the analysis, quotes and notes from the Suns' 127-96 loss to the Thunder on February 8.
The Good:
Goran Dragic couldn't miss in the first quarter, scoring 16 points on 7-of-10 from the field. The problem for Dragic, however, is that Russell Westbrook and Co. clamped down at the defensive end over the final 36 minutes. The Slovenian finished with three points the rest of the way.
While plenty of his points came when the game was out of reach, Michael Beasley found his touch at the offensive end after a two-game lull. Beasley scored a game-high 25 points, eight of which came in the final 47 seconds of the third quarter.
The Bad:
At least the Suns have been consistent in one category this season, third quarter drop-off. After trailing by only five at halftime, Phoenix put together a clunker of a third frame getting outscored 36-20. The quarter featured one of the Suns' worst stretches of the 2012-13 season, as they allowed the Thunder to go on a rather easy 19-0 run.
Outside of Dragic's impressive first quarter, the Suns starters could have taken the night off as they were, for lack of a better phrase, utterly ineffective.
P.J. Tucker, Jared Dudley, Luis Scola and Marcin Gortat combined for a total of 11 points on 5-of-17 from the field. To put that in perspective, five Oklahoma City players outscored that quartet by themselves.
He Said It:
"This is no reason to hang our heads. They have played in the Finals and they know what it's like, and a lot of our guys don't. This will be a positive teaching tool for us. It's something to learn from and something to never forget." -- Suns interim head coach Lindsey Hunter
� Friday's 31-point loss marked the Suns' largest margin of defeat since getting embarrassed by 40 on November 28 against the Detroit Pistons.
� In their 40-point loss at Detroit, Phoenix's starting five scored just 33 points. Friday's mark of 30 points surpassed that as the worst scoring performance of the 2012-13 season.
� The Thunder have now beaten the Suns three times, and they've done so in convincing fashion. Oklahoma City has won by an average over 20.3 points per victory.
Up Next:
The Suns will could their home-and-home series with the Thunder Sunday at US Airways Center. The game is scheduled to tip-off at 6:00 p.m. MST.

New Mexico Highlands University's football team is predicted to finish seventh in the 10-team Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference this coming fall.
That's according to a preseason coaches' poll conducted in conjunction with the RMAC's recent Media Day in Colorado Springs.
The Cowboys, who finished 2-9 overall and 1-8 in the conference in 2013, garnered 29 points in the poll, which tied them with Western New Mexico for seventh place.

The food stamp program is an important safety net aimed at ensuring that those who are down on their luck don't go hungry.

"Page not on server"
Hi can anyone help me?
When I add a new page and try to view it I get
The requested URL /wordpress/about-us-2/ was not found on this server.
Does anyone know what the problem might be?
PS WP wont let me change the slug either.

Can't say for sure without seeing for myself, but I would start by making sure the .htaccess file is in the root of your wordpress install and that it contains the correct info in it.
