For all those who understand time travel and the secrets of the universe skip down to the next paragraph. For those who don't, follow this theory: for every instant of time each of us face infinite choices and decisions. For each one of these infinite possibilities, a new "universe" is said to exist playing out the inevitable "what if..."
In this scenario, I will play out an interview taking place in one of these parallel universes where everything in the draft happened the same, except we took Fleener instead of Martin for the 31st pick in the 2012 draft.
Press (AP) Q and A with Bucs Management (BM)
Explain the move to trade down for Fleener
BM: We had him ranked as a top 20 player in the draft, when the opportunity came up to grab him we took it, no way did we think he would make it passed Indy at 34.
Some analyst had mocked RB Doug Martin to you, why not a RB in that position?
BM: We felt there was great depth in this years RB class and felt selecting a RB like Michael Smith in the 7th presented great value in what we were looking for, a complementary 3rd down change of pace guy. Don't forget, we have great RB named Blount, we believe he was not given a fair shot last year since we abandoned the run most game playing from behind. His fumbling problems are easily correctable. A guy like Martin represents too much of a luxury pick, for a team trying to rebound from a 10 loss season, we cannot afford luxury picks. Besides, with our new OL, who ever we stick back there will be headed to the pro-bowl.
Does Fleener represent Winslow's replacement?
BM: Winslow has been an important component to our team for the last few years, he has been one of the leagues best receiving TE for a while. We all know Winslow has struggled with injuries since he arrived here and we have to assume his shelf-life is less than healthy players. The addition of Fleener now gives us more breathing room, it allows Winslow to rest when he needs to and give us the flexibility for some interesting formations when both are healthy. When you have two threats at TE position plus the receiving corp we've built, there is no defense in the league that will not fear our passing game.
Is the TE position becoming more valuable in the NFL today?
BM: I think we have seen the progression of that position for a while now, having at least one great receiving TE puts tremendous pressure on the opponent's defense. Arguably you can make the case that a great TE is more valuable than a great WR, in the next few years I wouldn't be surprised to see a TE in the top 10 picks. So to get the consensus best TE in the draft, we feel very fortunate.
I thank you for your time today, any perditions for the 2012 season?
BM: Super bowl!

Is YouTube a flash in the pan?
Last modified: June 29, 2006, 5:56 PM PDT
By Greg Sandoval
Staff Writer, CNET News.com
As video-sharing site YouTube rides an enormous wave of popularity, a research firm has expressed doubts about the company's business prospects.
Josh Martin, an IDC research analyst, issued a report Thursday asserting that YouTube will struggle to squeeze profits from its video-sharing business, primarily because its audience has grown accustomed to paying nothing for the service. Fans of San Mateo, Calif.-based YouTube are even likely to buck attempts to post ads on the site because YouTube has largely been ad free since its official launch last December, according to the report.
"In order to begin addressing its issues, YouTube must implement myriad changes," Martin wrote in his report. "The truly difficult task for YouTube is to change the entire culture of the viewers that propelled it to overnight success."
YouTube spokeswoman Julie Supan declined to comment on the report but did say that company executives have offered Martin "no insight into our business."
YouTube owns more than 40 percent of the burgeoning video-sharing market, and more than 13 million people log on to watch homemade movies that are uploaded by fans of the site every month. But even while the company's profile mushrooms, and more than a year since YouTube was founded, executives have yet to roll out a business model.
YouTube representatives have said the company will sell ads, which will be introduced slowly in coming months.
According to Martin, YouTube has little choice but to take the advertising route. The site's audience is likely to be unwilling to pay for subscriptions or downloads of premium content. He adds that the advertising model is no sure bet.
Introducing ads may alienate viewers. In such a case, "how long until a (YouTube competitor), without advertising, emerges to siphon the YouTube defectors?" Martin asked in his report.
There's also the question of whether YouTube can persuade blue chip companies to advertise on the site. There's been much speculation in the media on whether some of the content on YouTube is too unseemly to attract big advertisers.
YouTube doesn't prescreen any content. The majority of the video clips involve budding musicians, comedians, filmmakers or just people clamoring for attention. Other clips are grittier. A viewer can often find clips of violent accidents and bloody shark attacks. Sometimes users post clips that include nudity and sexually graphic images.
And then there's the question of users uploading content that's owned by someone else.
In February, NBC requested that YouTube remove a clip from "Saturday Night Live" called "Lazy Sunday," that was widely viewed on YouTube, and the company complied. Since then, YouTube's relationship with NBC has vastly improved. This week, the two companies announced a cross-marketing deal that calls for NBC to post promotional clips from shows, such as "Saturday Night Live" and "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," on YouTube.
But this isn't what YouTube fans want, says Martin. They don't want promotional clips that the network chooses, writes Martin, they want the funniest, edgiest skits SNL has to offer, or at least some of them. The problem, said John Miller, NBC's chief marketing officer, is that such SNL snippets are already offered on iTunes for a fee. Cable station E Entertainment also owns the broadcast rights to SNL segments. Making them available for free on YouTube isn't in anyone's best interest, said Miller.
Martin said in his report that he expects copyright issues to plague YouTube and its rivals well into the future.
He compares the challenges ahead of YouTube to those faced by Napster as it tried to transform itself from a free file-sharing system into a paid-subscription service.
"In the late 1990s Napster...achieved similar cult status (as YouTube) but was quickly abandoned when it attempted to become a legitimate business," Martin wrote.
For some entertainment sites, going mainstream has meant losing their core audience, who are attracted to more rebellious sites.
"Eventually, the paradigm will shift, where viewers accept watching advertisements to support their free video," said Martin in his report, "but not likely quickly enough for YouTube to reinvent itself in the short term."

Paying for video clips of SNL, ahahahahhaahahah, oh you iTunes tools.
Anyway, so far I haven't given a cent to Google, and Google's still striving. As long as it's got 13 million hits every month, I don't think youTube has got anything to worry about.
I'm the trouble starter, fuckin' instigator.
I'm the fear-addicted, danger illustrated.

Dead Silence3 Reviews
Just dead weight.
After realizing I wouldn't get back to sleep, I swung my legs over the bed and winced in pain, forgetting for a moment the current status of my ankle. I looked down at it and was shocked with what I saw. It was extremely swollen and I could not move it at all. I must admit that worried me a little and I stood up on one leg and pulled on a pair of black jeans. I had on a wrinkled black shirt and I figured it work have to do after glancing at my overflowing laundry basked. I never really liked housework...
I shrugged before walking out to my kitchen and pouring a cup of day-old coffee and putting it in the microwave for a minute. I grabbed the edge of the counter and hopped up on top of it, reaching for my phone. I sighed in annoyance when I realized it was dead and flung it down the counter. What was the use in trying?
I eventually decided to go to the Emergency Room to get my ankle checked out. After sitting in an overcrowded waiting room for about half an hour with a dozen screaming kids before finally was being admitted to the fast track where I could get an x-ray. I sat down on the hard, white bed and waited for the results. An hour and thirty seven minutes later (yes, I was counting), someone I was assuming was a fast-track nurse came in with a clipboard.
"I'm afraid that ankle of yours is broken, Mr. Way," She said seriously. I looked at her crystal blue eyes and long blonde hair. Oh, she reminded me of Ana. I blinked back tears and swallowed the dry lump forming in my throat before starting to talk.
"Please, call me Gerard." I said. She shook her head and I looked at her, confused.
"I'm sorry, I'm not allowed. But we are going to have to get a cast on that leg soon. Today, if possible." I nodded, to avoid further embarrassment.
The next few hours passed in a blur, and I ended up going home with a hard, black cast adorning my leg. Better than nothing. When I got inside, I was surprised to find Mikey sitting on my couch. It was almost like he was waiting for me. But how did he get in?
"Mom gave me her key. I know that's what you're wondering." He said, putting the words in my mouth. I nodded slowly and walked over to a chair in the opposite corner of the room.
"Well, aren't you going to ask me why I am here?" He asked impatiently. I simply nodded and he continued.
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming home? Do you know how angry I am with you right now? No, I guarantee you have no earthy idea! I hate you right now, do you know that? Huh?" He snapped in my direction. I had no clue what to say to that, so I remained speechless. "Well, aren't you going to talk, Gee?!" I shook my head.
He slammed his fist into the wall and his knuckles started to bleed slightly. He yelped out in pain before walking to the door and storming out.
Well, that went well, didn't it? I walked over to the couch and laid there with my foot propped up on its arm, listening to the sounds of the city until I drifted off into a much-needed sleep.
"What happened to his leg?"
"Mikey said he'd be here, y'know."
"He fell on it, Bob-"
"Owwwww. I bet that hurt!"
"Thanks for the input from the peanut gallery, Frankie!"
I lifted up my head and rubbed the sleep out of my eyes before glancing around at all my friends hovering over me. I thought I heard talking...
"HAH! IT LIVES!" Frank shouted before bursting out in laughter.
"Shut up, Frank!" Kris, Ray, and Bob said in unison. He looked at them with a pretend evil glare before giggling again.
"Gee, you alright, man?" Bob asked. I just sat there, like dead weight. That is how the night progressed until everyone ended up leaving. I wasn't able to bring myself to talk, I don't even know why.
Okay, so I am sorry I didn;t update in a while. I moved all the way to the other end of the east coast so don't blame me. But I have all the story written now so no more waits. I will update if you review. Deal? Oh, and by the way, only three more chapters after this.

Tucked northwest of Sardis Lake just above John W. Kyle State Park, Mallard Pointe Golf Course showcases undulating bermuda-grass fairways that offer sweeping views of the area's towering trees. Designed by Bob Cupp, the course's layout challenges players with back-to-back par 5s on the lengthy 6th and 7th holes, as well as on the 10th and 16th holes, requiring players to break at least once for s'mores while trekking from tee to green. Before hitting the fairways, swingers can take advantage of an extensive practice area consisting of a 350-yard driving range with six target greens and 100 hitting stations, a 10-acre grass-tee area, and a practice fairway bunker.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par-72 course * Length of 7,004 yards * Course rating of 73.8 * Slope rating of 131 * Four tee options * Scorecard
Each year, The Mid-South Wedding Show invites brides-to-be and grooms-in-waiting to peruse dozens of vendors plying their wedding wares. Attendees can network with professional coordinators, sample cakes from various bakeries, and compare financial planners by making them guess at the number of jellybeans in a jar. Live fashion shows and seminars highlight the latest fashions and advancements in the union universe, and lucky attendees leave each show with free giveaways that can include trips, invitations, and fitness passes.
Ranked in Golfweek's Best Courses You Can Play in Indiana, the course at Prairie View Golf Club is situated on 206 acres of environmentally protected land along the White River with scenic prairieland and five lakes. The Robert Trent Jones, Jr. design features natural wetlands with a rushing stream that comes into play on four holes, forcing players to demonstrate deft control or gilled golf bags. On the front nine, the prairie setting invites harsh winds to blow across bentgrass fairways, often knocking shots off course. As players make the turn onto the back nine, they notice a marked difference in the environment, as open prairies give way to tall sycamore, oak, beech, and cottonwood trees lying just beyond the Kentucky bluegrass rough. Across the river lies Conner Prairie, a historical re-enactment village whose elegant, 1830s-era style was adopted for the design of the course's 15,000-square-foot clubhouse.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Total length of 7,073 yards from the back tees * Course rating of 74.5 from the back tees * Course slope of 138 from the back tees * Four sets of tees per hole
There are no roads in the sky—just clouds and the floating mansions of America's billionaires. Similarly, Downtown Aviation's flying lessons don't follow one set pathway to pilot certification. Using FAA-approved materials, the school's certified flight instructors can teach a fast-paced course or follow a more casual lesson plan. But the endpoint remains the same: a student, private, or sport certificate.
One of the most exciting moments during training occurs approximately 20–25 hours into instruction, when students take the controls for their first solo flight. As they soar over Memphis or Olive Branch, taking in bird's eye views through the cockpit windshield, some may feel inspired to pursue flying as a career. Luckily, they won't have to look for a new school. Downtown Aviation's faculty trains pilots for their commercial certificates and airline transport pilot licenses. The staff can also maintain pilots' aircrafts at their Cessna-certified service center.
As the head trainer at Raintree Equestrian Center—and in previous roles—Shannyn Welsh has worked in riding disciplines including Western pleasure, hunter/jumper, and barrel racing with horse breeds ranging from all types of top-bred warmbloods to arabians, andalusians, and tennessee walkers. Equestrians from all over the country and from Europe trust Shannyn's experience so much that they routinely send her their own horses to help with problem solving, preparation, and training. Students of all riding levels also seek out Shannyn's expertise to improve their skills. While practicing within the 60-foot round pen or the 100'x200' lighted arena, or experimenting with a Fosbury flop on the full-jump course, students learn to exhibit the hallmarks of good riding technique, including center balance, soft hands, and firm legs.
Experienced gymnasts twirl and flip at one end of Gymcats Gymnastics' floor as they train for advanced events. At the other end, toddlers learn introductory rolls and coordination. That's the studio's philosophy at a glance: real gymnastics taught in classes designed to suit all students. Kids aged 3–4 learn the basics of tumbling while increasing attention spans, learning social skills, and practicing human pyramids to reach cookie jars. More-seasoned athletes can receive instruction on the vault, bars, balance beam, and floor. After they graduate, students can apply their skills toward other sports or practice to become a part of Gymcats' competitive teams. The gym also caters to grownups by hosting parents' nights out on select Fridays and overseeing birthday parties.

Congratulations to @DebFischer2012 and the people of Nebraska! #NESen—
Sarah Palin (@SarahPalinUSA) May 16, 2012
The Palin effect is making a critical difference for conservative female candidates across the country. After watching her endorsed candidate shake up the Nebraska GOP primary and pull an upset victory, Gov. Sarah Palin tweeted her congratulations and a link to her Facebook note:
Congratulations to Deb Fischer fb.me/1Df7EkYEo—
Sarah Palin (@SarahPalinUSA) May 16, 2012
From Palin's Facebook message:
As recently as a week ago, Deb Fischer was dismissed by the establishment. Why? Because she is not part of the good old boys' permanent political class. The message from the people of Nebraska is simple and powerful: America is looking for real change in Washington, and commonsense conservatives like Deb Fischer represent that change. I applaud Moms like Deb Fischer who are bold enough to step up and run on a conservative platform to restore America and protect our children's future.
ShePAC, which backed Fischer first and forcefully, also celebrated:

This year, the very young Boston College Eagles haven't started so well. BC fans all thought that this team would be better than the dreadful 2010-2011 Wake Forest Demon Deacons, however, that doesn't appear to be the case. So I compared the numbers between the 2 teams, and the results are quite similar.
Wake Forest record through 14 games: 6-8
PIcked: 11th/12th in ACC

Panamanians protest sale of public lands
PANAMA CITY — Looters ransacked shops and stoned vehicles in Panama City on Friday following protests outside the Congress against a law that permits the sale of public lands in a duty-free zone.
Police used tear gas against protesters who rampaged even though Panama's president has promised to repeal the law.
The violence resulted in more than 200 arrests in Panama City and Colon, the northern city where the duty-free zone is located. Eleven people — a mix of protesters and police — were hurt, authorities said.
Protests first started last week when President Ricardo Martinelli signed the law. A total of three people have died in the violence, and around 50 have been hurt.
Dozens of hooded assailants stormed through the streets around the capitol building Friday, attacking congressional guards and smashing store windows and parked vehicles with stones.
Local television showed images of looters making off with television sets, sound equipment, appliances and alcoholic beverages.
The eruption of violence followed a protest by members of a construction union against the new law.
Heavily armed police intervened after a half-hour of chaos, making mass arrests to restore order.
"We are concerned by the turn that this situation is taking," Irving Hallman, head of Panama's chamber of commerce, said in a television interview.
"There is no justification for vandalism by those who are trying to take advantage of the situation."
Protests have flared since October 19 when Martinelli signed a law allowing the sale of public lands in the free trade area in the city of Colon.
Three people were killed in the first eruption of violent protests in Colon immediately after the law was signed, and the city has been paralyzed by strikes since then.
Protests have also spread to Panama City and the border area with Costa Rica.
Martinelli, who was flying home from a trip to Asia, promised in a Twitter message Friday to introduce a bill repealing the land sale law in its entirety.
"The law sought the best for Colon but it had little acceptance. We will proceed with its definitive repeal. We want peace and tranquility for all," he wrote.

(SIOUX CITY, IA) - A new business stepped up this year to sponsor Toys for Tots, along with our sister station KPTH Fox 44. It's a partner you might not expect.
It's not often you hear the buzz of a fresh tattoo against the backdrop of a Christmas carol.
"We were just looking at a way to kind of contribute back to the community. It doesn't seem like that's been a real big thing among tattoo shops and we wanted to be able to help some of the kids that need toys this year," said Living Art Tattoo owner Andy Bagshaw. He's owned the custom tattoo shop for four years. This year in addition to serving as a drop off location for toys, his three artists are offering you a deal, to donate. "Hopefully it'll help get some toys brought in," he continued.
Bring a new toy to living art, receipt attached, and get double its value off your next tattoo. "It'll work with gift certificates also," Bagshaw explained, "we do a lot of those around Christmastime. It's a good way that if people are wanting to get tattooed they can help somebody out in the process." The discount is good for up to 50 percent off cost, for at least a $100 tattoo. It's a partnership that's already drawn interest. "People are kind of shocked, at first. You can kind of see them start processing, well, do I want a tattoo?" Bagshaw laughed.
Living Art Tattoo is located at 2016 S. Saint Aubin St. in Sioux City. You can reach staff at (712) 276-4148.
Visit our sister station's website, www.kpth.com for a full list of drop off locations for Toys for Tots.

I just want to say upfront that the best run franchises in the league such as the Spurs and Thunder control their own destiny and don't rely on outside influences to help build their teams. Good teams are not short sighted. They have a vision and a plan to execute that vision. The Magic unfortunately have not shown the characteristics of a well run team. I will hopefully address these issues and how the magic can make corrections.
What is the vision of this magic team?
Lets talk about the identity for the product on the court. The 4-1 scheme has been in my opinion a success. With a rare talent such as Dwight I feel like the 4-1 offensive scheme maximizes Dwight's influence on the court offensively. However, the Lewis for Arenas trade actually went against the 4-1 scheme. Why not see if Turk and Lewis can replicate the chemistry that had in 09? The arenas trade would be there, NO ONE else would have traded for him. Not only that you can evaluate Arenas with more games underneath his belt to see if there was any signs of recovery with his bum knee. All this to say that for Dwight to stay, Richardson needs to shoot to his career #'s , have Bass get back into his jump shooting groove, and Arenas needs to show signs of explosiveness that made him a special player. The last of these being the least likely. So the verdict is to keep the 4-1 offensive scheme.
So the problem is the front office. Otis Smith seems to have no real long term plan to build a young championship core around Dwight Howard. If you are trying to win now then why not keep hedo AND trade for vince? ultimately, this lead to the magic trading away gortat and MP, two of the magics best defensive players and our 2012 #1 draft pick.
okay this would be the lineup for the magic, nelson, carter, turk, lewis, and howard with MP, Gortat, JJ, and bass coming off the bench. we would still be in the same salary cap situation except with alot of assets and depth. if this didn't work out then you would have carter's expiring, gortat, a #1 pick, and bass/anderson to trade for another piece.
If otis thought turk was too old and the plan was to blow up the finals team the best option would be to develop lee as our starting shooting guard and bass as a mid range stretch 4. Nothing having anderson would suck but the lineup would be young and in my opinion promising with nelson, lee, mp, lewis, and dwight. bass, JJ , gortat on the bench.
Yes, i'm living in hypothetical world here. the point is i don't think Otis really had a consistent plan. they hedged and now the team is stuck in the middle, not going to win now and with no flexiblity to do anythign about, and no realistic future aspirations.
The solution is to hire Kevin Pritchard and go into full rebuilding mode. He has a strong track record of having good drafts and identifying young talent. He is ideal because whether Dwight is staying or not the team needs to rebuild with young talent. Trade pieces such as bass, jj, anderson, and nelson if necessary.
I don't know if dwight told the FO that they need to win now to keep him, if he did then the FO shouldve told him the best thing is to take a few steps back so that they can make the leap forward. Maybe the pressure came from above, Mr Devos is old and he might be itching to win a title ASAP. Maybe the pressure was from the city officials that wants a title in the brand new building they built for political reasons. But i don't think any of these circumstances are any different around the league. We had no vision and no plan, now we are nowhere.

Looking at a 1960's style mobile food truck, it might be hard not to stop and grab a bite to eat.
The Box Lunch is one of the newest food trucks in Iowa City, and this summer there may be a lot more.
City council members are considering testing a pilot program allowing mobile food vendors, outside what's already allowed on the pedestrian mall, to set up shop.
"I think it's a real good idea," said Iowa City resident Carol Vance. "A lot of people come here and probably don't eat breakfast at home, they come here and eat. They have different varieties of foods and the cost is not bad for being out in an open place."
The Box Lunch owner, Elizabeth Wohlford, says she's only been in service since September 2013, but the idea couldn't come at a better time for her.
"People love it. We go out to manufacturing complexes and different business buildings to serve lunch to them, a lot of time they have 20 minutes to eat, and to they really enjoy seeing us pull up," said Wohlford.
Wohlford is a member of the recently-formed Mobile Vending Association of Iowa City, that along with the growing interest among some residents, the city could expand their mobile food vending policy.
"The culture, we have to change it in Iowa City, there's really only 2-3 trucks in the area," said Wohlford.
The pilot program will allow more local food vendors outside of the already six mobile food vending permits allowed on the ped mall.
It could possibly change the current mobile vending policy, which is quite limited, by adding three new mobile vending sites.
"It's very exciting and I'm really glad to see Iowa City step up and start working with us and we're figured out a few lots to start with," said Wohlford.
The city council will vote June 3rd to decide if the program will be put in place.
If they approve the program, changes could be made as early as late June.

Oregon Marijuana Tolerance Initiative (2010)
|Not on Ballot
| This measure did not or
will not appear on a ballot
Part of the energy behind legalizing and taxing marijuana came from a decision that U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder announced in October 2009 to the effect that the federal government would stop prosecuting medical marijuana users in states that had passed medical marijuana laws, including Oregon. Advocates in Oregon and elsewhere made the case that faltering state budgets would be helped by the additional tax revenues state governments could expect in states where marijuana was a legal, taxable crop.[3]
Ballot summary
The ballot title read as follows:[4]
Permits personal marijuana, hemp cultivation/use without license; commission to regulate commercial marijuana cultivation/sale.
Result of "Yes" Vote: "Yes" vote permits state-licensed marijuana (cannabis) cultivation/sale to adults through state stores; permits unlicensed adult personal cultivation/use; prohibits restrictions on hemp (defined).
Result of "No" Vote: "No" vote retains existing civil and criminal laws prohibiting cultivation, possession and delivery of marijuana; retains current statutes that permit regulated medical use of marijuana.
Summary: Currently, marijuana cultivation, possession and delivery are prohibited; regulated medical marijuana use permitted. Measure replaces state, local marijuana laws except medical marijuana and driving under the influence laws; distinguishes "hemp" from "marijuana;" prohibits regulation of hemp. Create agency to license marijuana cultivation by qualified persons and to purchase entire crop. Agency sells marijuana at cost to pharmacies, medical research facilities, and to qualified adults for profit through state stores. Ninety percent of net proceeds goes to state general fund, remainder to drug education, treatment, hemp promotion. Bans sales to, possession by minors. Bans public consumption except where signs permit, minors barred. Agency to regulate use, set prices, other duties; Attorney General to defend against federal challenges/prosecutions. Provides penalties. Effective January 1, 2011; other provisions.
The initiative was sponsored by the Campaign for the Restoration and Regulation of Hemp (CRRH), a group dedicated to educate people about the medicinal and industrial uses for cannabis. It's chief petitioners were D. Paul Stanford and Madeline Martinez. The working title they gave to their proposal was the Oregon Cannabis Tax Act (OCTA).[5][6]
Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP) executive director Jack Cole, a New Jersey state police officer who was also campaigning in California to assure the passage of marijuana legislation, said, "When you prohibit any drug, you create an underground market for that drug, and that attracts criminal activity. Marijuana — it's just a weed; it has zero value until we say it's illegal, then the price artificially inflates, becomes so obscenely high, that up until about a year ago when the economy took a turn, marijuana was worth more, ounce for ounce, than gold."[7]
Legal challenge
On March 30, 2010 supporters learned that a legal challenge against the certified ballot title were dismissed by the Oregon Supreme Court. Specifically, the challenge called the "summary" into question. According to the filed challenge, by Beaverton resident Bradley Benoit, his concerns were not adequately addressed by the state attorney general. The summary explanation, he argued, should have included the fact that Oregon Attorney General would be responsible to defend state residents and the proposed law should a federal case arise. Prior to the legal challenge, the state attorney general included Benoit's comments in the revised certified ballot title.[8][9]
Path to the ballot
- See also: Oregon signature requirements
According to the secretary of state, supporters did not file signatures in an attempt to qualify the measure for the 2010 ballot. Initiative petitions for statutes required six percent of 1,379,475, or 82,769 signatures. The deadline for filing signatures for the November 2, 2010 ballot was July 2, 2010. In early April 2010 the Oregon Secretary of State approved the proposed initiative petition.[10] As of May 13, initiative supporters reported having "less than 5,000 signatures."[7]

Happening today, hundreds in Tucson are coming together to celebrate Martin Luther King Jr's legacy.
Later this morning at the U of A campus, crowds will be out to celebrate King's legacy and continuing to build on it; and because it falls on the same day as President Obama's second inauguration,organizers say people can see King's dream happening.
They are hoping to show a live feed of the inauguration, but that is not the main focus today. That would be the march all throughout the UA campus, in honor of the marches Martin Luther King Jr. led during the civil rights movement.
The other events start at 10 a.m., that is when speeches from churches and non-profits will begin, and of course there will also be some delicious food. The event is organized by Tucson and Southern Arizona's Black Chamber of Commerce.
Leaders tell Tucson News Now the purpose is to "Recognize where we've come from and re-energize because we haven't gotten all the way there yet."

"What makes Cung Le's kicks so effective is the fact that he doesn't mind throwing them because his wrestling is so good. He may not be much of an offensive wrestler in this fight, but it may be difficult to take him down and he's a good defensive wrestler and that could come into play for him. Because he's able to ward off takedowns and breakaway, that's when his kicks become very effective, when you start hesitating when you're coming in on techniques and stuff like that. He has other aspects of his game that are probably overlooked by the masses."
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) recently green-lit the upcoming UFC on FUEL TV 6: "Franklin vs. Le" event scheduled for the CotaiArena at the Venetian Macao-Resort-Hotel in the People's Republic of China, on Nov. 10, 2012.
The UFC "Macao" main card airs LIVE at 9 a.m. ET and will also be re-broadcasted later in the day via tape delay.
Leading the charge for the promotion's landmark event will a middleweight match-up pitting former division kingpin Rich Franklin against ex-Strikeforce 185-pound champion Cung Le, who has the kind of kicks that can break opponent's arms.
And "Ace" is no stranger to broken bones.
Let's get some early predictions on this one, Maniacs. Does Le get a leg up on Franklin? Or gas out and get finished after two rounds of balls-to-the-wall offense?

Under the plan, Sandberg has been steadily divesting small amounts of her Facebook shares since lockups expired. She still owns shares worth about $485 million, according to the filing, so this sale represented about 1 percent of her holdings, not counting unvested stock awards.

MOMENTS after his unanimous election as
MOMENTS after his unanimous election as
At their post-election meeting in Bhurban, the leaders of the two largest parties had jointly declared that the restoration of the judiciary would be accomplished within 30 days of the formation of a federal government. It is possible to quibble at length about the starting point for the designated period, but that's hardly the main bone of contention.
No one could seriously take issue with Asif Zardari's comment in an interview last Friday with the BBC's Owen Bennett-Jones that resolving the matter could take 31 or 32 days, or it might take less: "It could take 22 days, we could do it probably in a week's time." He had earlier taken umbrage at the interviewer's suggestion that "if you ask for the parliament to do this … it could happen in half an hour". Somewhat more ominously, he also said that he didn't "believe in the clock" and that "this clicking and this non-clicking, I don't buy that. They do not intimidate me."
The two issues are not unrelated, given that restitution of the status quo ante would presumably pull from under the president's feet the soiled legal rug on which he stands. The Supreme Court under Chaudhry had declared Musharraf's emergency illegal, and it is unlikely that the former military chief's re-election by a tainted parliament on its last legs would go unchallenged. Even if Zardari has no personal cause to collaborate in prolonging Musharraf's tenure, he couldn't possibly be in any doubt about
The PPP's co-chairman also has a personal axe to grind. In his interview with Bennett-Jones, he emotionally recounted his ordeal in the context of a case involving a BMW on which the relevant duty had allegedly not been fully paid. "That was my last case," he said. "I was languishing in prison for two years and I went to Iftikhar Chaudhry five times." Chaudhry apparently said he hadn't read the case, so he couldn't hear it. "So we don't allow the judiciary again to do that."
After he'd had his say, Bennett-Jones remarked that his demeanour had "changed in the last minute. You're angry. It seems to me you're angry with this man, the chief justice… The difficulty, of course, is that the vast bulk of
Zardari denied the charge, saying: "I don't believe in anger, it's a wasted energy." Why, he implied, would he be angry towards Chaudhry when he wasn't "angry with the people I'm sitting in politics with". That's a reasonable question, and many Pakistanis would be keen to hear a convincing answer. If the likes of Sharif's Pakistan Muslim League and the Muttahida Qaumi Movement can so readily be accommodated, notwithstanding their nearly psychotic antipathy towards the PPP and its leadership in years gone by, why is Zardari finding it so hard to be equally conciliatory towards Chaudhry?
Chances are that the personal angle is but one part of a complex equation. The official line is: "I'm not interested in only restoring the judges. I am interested in restoring judiciary – the rule of law, the majesty of law. So that no other Asif Zardari stays in prison under trial for eight years." The constitutional package being prepared for presentation in parliament will apparently include, in some form or another, the restoration of the judges. Sharif and, among others, Aitzaz Ahsan seem to believe that there's no obvious reason to link the two: the judges can be sent back to work while parliament debates the constitutional changes.
In his interview with Bennett-Jones, Zardari's charge-sheet against the judiciary included the "judicious murder" of his father-in-law. He surely didn't mean that: the judicial assassination of Z.A. Bhutto was, to say the least, highly injudicious – as at least some Supreme Court judges recognized at the time. He also referred to Chaudhry's penchant for playing politics but chose to overlook Musharraf's part in the game. Elsewhere he has adopted the tack of mild mockery, suggesting that the judges were interested only in getting back on the state's payroll and that their restoration would not reduce the price of flour.
One could fill reams of paper with a list of what the return to the bench of the likes of Chaudhry and Rana Bhagwandas will not reverse. What it would achieve is a sense of judicial independence and dignity, apart from facilitating a friendlier environment for worthy constitutional changes. Not all the judges concerned need be rated highly as legal minds or moral stalwarts. What matters is that they have displayed a backbone that may well have impressed illustrious predecessors such as justices M.R. Kayani and Dorab Patel.
Unlike Musharraf, Zardari has not descended to describing Chaudhry as "the scum of the earth". But whatever anyone's personal opinion of the unfairly dismissed chief justice might be, his stature has clearly been enhanced by his conduct over the past year, as well as by the legal fraternity's passionate support.
Reforms in various spheres of life are welcome and even necessary, but they shouldn't stand in the way of righting the wrongs of November 3, nor should the manner of their introduction be allowed to sour the honeymoon between the ruling coalition's partners in chief.

Mushrooms are an excellent source of anti oxidants which protects the human body from free radical damage. Free radical damage destroys the healthy cells in the body and gives rise to many common and uncommon diseases, anti oxidants are tiny soldiers in the body which fight the free radicals thereby keeping the body healthy and strong.
The best mushrooms are white and brown which are known as button mushrooms, they neither come under the category of fruit nor vegetables; they are fungus which grows on organic material. They are rich source of proteins and therefore help in combating ageing diseases and also help to improve our immune system.
Mushrooms decrease the heat in the body and thus keep the body cool; they make an ideal food for the hot summer months. They also help in reducing cholesterol in the blood and therefore they are ideal for keeping the heart healthy.
Besides button mushrooms, there is another variety of mushrooms called intake mushrooms, these mushrooms contain intederon which is a type of protein which combats diseases like cancer and viral infection. These mushrooms detoxify the body by removing toxins in the blood stream and also improves the circulation of the blood.
The third type of mushrooms are the black mushrooms and are known as black tree fungus, these mushrooms help in coronary heart diseases and also retard the growth of tumors. These mushrooms contain adenosines which is a blood thinning compound. Black mushrooms are usually eaten by Chinese which are cooked with onions, garlic and ginger all of which have blood thinning properties. May be because of that, Chinese have the lowest heart disease rate in the world. •

After Dark Horrorfest: Dying Breed
Description: Convinced that Tasmanian tigers still exist deep in the impenetrable forest of Western Tasmania, zoologist Nina puts together a small expedition, consisting of herself, her partner, Matt, their financier, Jack, and his girlfriend, Rebecca. Their quest leads them deep into isolated territory which is now inhabited by the descendants of Alexander Pearce (aka The Pieman). During the 1800s, Pearce escaped from the British penal settlement at Sarah Island with seven other convicts and disappeared in the forests of West Tasmania. Only Pearce emerged--along with chunks of human flesh in his pockets. He was hanged for cannibalism in 1824. The small town of "Sarah" in Western Tasmania passionately upholds its cannibalistic heritage in honor of the convict patriarch that gave birth to it. It needs to stay hidden to survive--but it also needs fresh "stock" to breed. When the four tiger hunters arrive, they become the hunted.

Wow what a night for the great 8, Alex Ovechkin. His magnificent line of 3+1=4, 3 PPP, 4 shots, and plus-1 easily nets him fantasy line of the night. He snapped his point scoring streak last game against the Islanders but obviously made up for it big time last night. Over his last 13 games he has 14+7=21, 11 PPP, and 67 shots. Is he playing his way back into the top 3 in our drafts?
Nicklas Backstrom is benefitting big time from Ovechkin's resurgence. He assisted on all 3 of Ovi's goals and extended his point scoring streak to five. Over his last 11 games he has 3+14=17 and 7 PPP. He's now over a point per game on the season with 39 in 38.
Marcus Johansson has also been benefitting from skating with Ovechkin and Backstrom. His two assists last night extend his point scoring streak to 4 games. Over his last 12 games he has 4+11=15 which is likely the most productive stretch of his career. He's owned in just 8% of Yahoo! leagues. You know what to do.
Great line for Tomas Kopecky as he scored 2 third period goals and added 2 hits, 4 shots, and plus-2 in just under 18 minutes of ice time. He has 3+2=5 over his last 5 games.
Shawn Matthias continued his productive play of late as he notched two assists last night. Over his last five contests he has 5+2=7, 15 shots, and 6 PIM.
Breaking a 3 game pointless streak was Evander Kane as he had a line of 1+1=2, 7 shots, plus-2 yesterday. You can never keep EKane away from the scoresheet for too long.
Both Tobias Enstrom and Dustin Byfuglien failed to record a point for the sixth straight game. They're also a combined minus-13 over that period. This dynamic duo picked the wrong time to offer their fantasy squads absolutely nothing.
Ondrej Pavelec made 30 of 31 stops for a rare win yesterday. While he's not a very good goaltender when you look at his overall stats (16-18-2, .904 sv%, and 2.82 gaa), he's started 35 of the Jets 40 games this season. Only Pekka Rinne and Ilya Bryzgalov have started more games (36). Just in sheer volume, he's worth drafting and plugging in.
Ray Emery finally lost a game in his last start out but he made up for it by posting a 20-save shutout yesterday. With his record standing at 13-1-0 and peripherals of .923 sv% & 1.95 gaa it will be interesting to see if anyone wants to give the UFA-to-be a starting gig next season.
Jeff Carter scored the GWG on the PP last night but he also recorded an assist, much to my dismay. He did a little bit of everything yesterday with 3 shots, 2 PIM, and 2 blocks as well. He's 4+2=6 over his last six games.
I was surprised to see that the reigning Vezina winner, Henrik Lundqvist, had no shutouts (in 33 starts) on the season. So his 48 saves on 49 shots in last night's victory was his best outing all year. He's really rounded into form of late, allowing 2 goals or less in 10 straight going 6-2-2 over that span.
Derek Stepan ran his point streak to four games with a goal and an assist last night. For the streak he has 3+3=6, with 13 shots and plus-6.
Rick Nash scored for the second straight game and added 8 shots. He has 3+2=5, 22 shots, and plus-4 over his last four matches.
All of a sudden Josh Bailey is on a hot streak. He had 1+1=2, 4 shots, 2 blocks, and plus-2 in 19:32 of ice time. He has points in four straight to the tune of 2+3=5.
Matt Carle is on a four game point scoring streak that has to be at least a little bit surprising considering in his pervious 18 games he had just 2 assists. After 1+1=2, 3 hits, and 2 blocks last night he has 1+5=6 for the streak.
The twins had matching 3 point efforts last night. Henrik Sedin went 1+2=3 for his second straight multipoint game and Daniel Sedin recorded 3 apples for his troubles.
Mike Smith made a triumphant return to the nets recording a 24-save shutout last night. Maybe he needed the time off as he hadn't had a win in his previous 5 starts before it.
Oliver Ekman-Larsson had two assists last night and he's hoping his luck will be turning around a bit. In the previous 15 games, he had just 3 assists and was minus-5.
Second straight game for Martin Hanzal with a goal and an assist. He has 3+4=7 over his last 5 games. Radim Vrbata had two assists and he's at 3+3=6 over his last 5 games.

DRTers: a sampling of the riders (wittco posted on May 25th, 2012 )
Just a sampling to pique your interest for Disaster Relief Trials 2012. A full roster of riders and bikes will appear in June.
Reuben Deumling is a bike trailer activist. It is his photo that starts this post. Reuben is currently amassing a bike trailer fleet in the hopes of providing a SE Portland neighborhood trailer rental service. Trailers, rented for cheap, allow anyone with a bike to easily make "car load" trips without a car. Reuben has been involved with developing bicycle-based medical emergency management systems.
Adam Shapiro will be coming up from Oakland, California to compete. He will be riding on an Xtracycle cargo bike with their new SideCar. This will be the world debut for the SideCar product. Adam has won many messenger alley cat races in the Bay area as well as "super market sweep" competitions. Both events are related in nature to the DRT.
Joe Partridge, Deputy Director of Emergency Management for Multnomah County, is a talented bike racer who is excited to compete within our unique format. Joe recently captured second for single speeders in the infamous Trans-Iowa "gravel grinder.
Local deluxe cargo-bike maker, Metrofiets, will have a talented racer representing their latest incarnation. They have not yet revealed their pilot.
Joel Metz, the saltiest professional cargo bike courier of the West Coast (almost 20 years in San Francisco and Portland) will be competing. The larger load and longer distance should cater to his "diesel engine" style.
Ryan Hashagen is the Pedicab King of Portland and has brought pedicabs and food trikes to other West Coast cities as well. He wants to make Portland lousy with pedicabs, business bikes, and food vending trikes, such that streets will become safer and more human-scale, providing a tipping point for the massive population of would-be bike commuters who are "interested but concerned." Ryan has won (2) Cycle Messenger World Championship Cargo Bike Races: Seattle 2003 and Edmonton 2004. In Seattle, he won using a pedicab (relatively oafish) + incredible fitness + exacting efficiency with route-selection.
Katie Proctor, a prominent cargo bike user in the Portland family community. Katie has a Yuba with custom boxes on either side. Katie, and her husband, David, also in DRT, have used cargo bikes for travel with their children as well as daily errands. Katie recently taught a family biking workshop, and is a salient leader of KidicalMass. Katie is the every day cargo bike rider.
In addition, there will be relief organizations and people like Bruce Harris, a local ARES HAM radio operator, advocate, and leader. He's the real deal and has stepped up to help us with our authentic disaster communication.
… and many more. Hopefully your appetite is whetted. The map of check points has been revised. Revised version will appear in a week. If you need specifics on the map of check points, feel free to contact us.

This Wednesday, Jake Ellenberger meets Diego 'The Dream' Sanchez in the octagon for the UFC's first event on Fuel TV which takes place in Omaha, Nebraska. While a win over Sanchez would elevate Ellenberger's career, it is unlikely that a victory will be as memorable as receiving the key to his hometown.
Ellenberger is seen as a hometown hero, a fighter who was born and raised in Omaha and continued to help the community as an assistant coach to the now defunct University of Nebraska-Omaha's wrestling team. The ceremony was headed by David Dover, the deputy Chief of Staff to Mayor Jim Suttle.
Dover had the following to say:
On behalf of Mayor Jim Suttle, the City of Omaha is proud to recognize Jake as a hometown hero, as both a former US Marine and an outstanding athlete.
The elated Ellenberger added:
I'm honored to be recognized by the city I grew up in and fight for. It's extra pressure to fight in your hometown with all your family and friends in the front row, but I know the support from the local fans will be awesome.
The UFC on Fuel TV prelims kick off on Facebook at 6:20 PM ET. The prelims are headlined by a fight between Jonathan Brookins and Vagner Rocha. The main card has a start time of 8:00 PM ET / 5:00 PM PT.

NORFOLK, Va. (AP)- A University of Virginia report says every $1 the state spends on higher education results in $1.29 in new tax revenue.
The report was released on Thursday and details the economic impact of the state's public higher education system. It was commissioned by the Virginia Business Higher Educational Council, which also released its 2013 policy agenda.
The council formed a Grow By Degrees coalition in 2009 following several years of state budget cuts that reduced per-student higher education funding in Virginia by about 50%. Coalition leaders say the study shows spending on higher education is a good investment.
The report also says public higher education operations account for more than 131,000 Virginia jobs and $28.4 billion in gross domestic product.

So, this is like super-duper interesting. So interesting that if today were the 1st of April, I would just assume somebody was fooling. But I did some checking and I'm 93-percent certain that CSNChicago.com's Brett Ballantini is perfectly serious ...
The Chicago White Sox are about to embark on a pitching odyssey that no team has ever taken, a sustained engagement with a six-man starting rotation.
This story hasn't gotten nearly as much attention as it deserves.
Or will deserve, if this thing actually happens. I'll be skeptical until it actually does, because talk about the six-man rotation has come up occasionally in recent years, but it's never actually happened. Not for more than a turn or two, anyway.
For the moment, though, here's the White Sox rotation, beginning Friday night in Oakland: Phil Humber, Gavin Floyd, Mark Buehrle, Edwin Jackson, John Danks, Jake Peavy.
Granted, all six of those pitchers have, in various ways, staked their claim on rotation slots. But this is such an extraordinary situation, there must be an extraordinary explanation.
And so there is, in the form of two numbers ...
That 2.67 is Humber's earned-run average. Barely an afterthought just a few weeks ago, the 28-year-old entered this season with two victories in his major-league career, both in relief. He had started only twice in his career. But there was an opening for a No. 5 starter this spring, thanks to Peavy's unavailability, and Humber -- the third pick in the 2004 amateur draft -- grabbed it. And now, against fairly long odds, he's got the lowest ERA among White Sox starters. It's hard to yank a guy with a 2.67 ERA from your rotation.
That 37 is the number of millions of dollars the White Sox must pay Peavy from 2011 through 2013, and includes the $16 million this season that makes him the franchise's highest-paid player. There's another $17 million next season, plus a $4 million buyout in 2013 (unless management instead opts to pay Peavy $22 million that season, which at the moment seems exceptionally unlikely).
So it's hard to yank Humber, and almost impossible to yank Peavy, who made his first start of the season Wednesday night in Anaheim. And you're certainly not going to yank Buehrle or Floyd or Danks or Jackson, all of whom have established themselves as better-than-average major-league starting pitchers.
And that, my fellow Milky Way Galaxians, is how you wind up with a six-man rotation.
Granted, this still doesn't make real sense unless there's not a large difference between your best pitcher and your sixth-best pitcher or the general performance of the starting pitchers will benefit from an extra day of rest.
Regarding the first of those, it's actually hard to figure who the White Sox's best starter is. Might be Danks. Might be Buehrle. Might be Floyd. Which is sort of the point; the White Sox don't have an obvious ace, which means they're not losing starts from a pitcher who obviously shouldn't be losing starts. It's also hard to figure who the White Sox's worst starter is. Humber or Peavy, presumably. But it wasn't so long ago that Peavy won a Cy Young Award, and of course Humber's got that 2.67 ERA.
Will the starters benefit from five and sometimes six days of rest?
The data's all over the map, but then the data's probably not extensive enough to mean anything anyway. This thing's going to last until somebody gets hurt, or until Phil Humber remembers he's Phil Humber (unless he's become someone else, in which case all bets are off and the White Sox might make some serious history).
