One of the things I had always looked forward to when becoming a mom was being able to pack my kid's lunchboxes. Call me crazy, but its the little things like these that show my kids how much I love them. So when my friend Vijay from Nosh On It emailed me about the Honest Kid's Rock the Lunchbox campaign, I was stoked to be a part of it. Plus at the end of this post there is a giveaway for you to enter for a chance to win a 30 day supply of Honest Kids juices as well as products and coupons from the other brands listed. Sweet!!
This healthy school lunch campaign is brought to you by these 4 awesome brands. All brands we use in our house. Organic brands that not only my kids enjoy, but I do as well.
I am totally THAT mom that signs up to bring certain items for class parties, such as juice, just so I know my kids wont be eating or drinking junk. I will bend my rules now and then but some things I put my food down on and are absolute no-nos in our diets. Such as foods containing high fructose corn syrup, anything soy based, food dyes etc. So many kid's juices these days are just dyed sugar water. No nutritional redeeming qualities about them. We actually don't drink juice at home. Its just not something we have, but for those occasions at school like parties I am ok with it. Especially when its Honest Kids juice.
Honest Kids is 100% organic. No artificial anything. Score!! No high fructose corn syrup. Score!! No fillers or junk. Just honest to goodness juice packed with 100% daily value of vitamin c. Healthier and lower in sugar since the sweetness only comes from fruit juice. Plus they come in 5 fun flavors ( we love the Berry Berry Good Lemonade) and I love the Honest Tea's company mission and core values. They are a company and brand I believe in. I have partnered with them today to bring you some of the ways I rock my kids lunches and here are a few examples.
My kids LOVE their bento style lunchboxes. I have them help pick out what they want in their lunch boxes. I always give them a choice of two items, for example tomatoes or cucumber, berries or oranges etc. And not every day, but once a week I will surprise them with their favorite treat, Annie's Homegrown organics gummy bunnies. My kids LOVE those things. Last week when I picked up my daughter from Kindergarten I asked her the usuals " How was your day? What did you do? What did you learn?" and she told me they had juice in class but she didn't have any since it wasn't organic. Serious proud mom moment there.
Its tough when you ( meaning me or any other mom friend of mine that I have talked to) take your kids grocery shopping and they want ALL the things marketed towards kids that aren't good for them even when they have no idea what the product is. Even though I cook and bake almost everything we eat, I am ok with the occasional packaged goodie as long as it is organic and doesn't have any junk ingredients. So I asked my daughter " The next time you have juice in class would you like me to get you some organic juice to take with you so you don't feel left out?" Her eyes were as wide as saucers and she was very excited about that idea. She also told me that she didn't feel left out that it was ok she didn't have the non organic juice. My baby is growing up!
My kids' other favorite treat besides Annie's gummy bunnies is Annie's bunny crackers. Not something I give to them often, but as a once in a while treat and because Annie's makes a really good product and I am a-ok with my kiddos having it.
I remember being a kid and having school lunch envy of other kids for one product only. This Pink Panther pink lemonade. It came in little juice boxes and kids would have it frozen in their lunches and they would be slushy by lunch time. Every one had them except me. I think my mom broke down and bought some so I would stop begging her for it. I froze a couple pouches of the Honest Kids lemonade and they made for the best slushies!! Totally reminded me of my childhood. I love that I can pass that on to my kid with a product that is super high quality. Only the best for my kiddos
Ok ready for the giveaway??
One of my awesome readers will get a month's supply of Honest Kids products (along with some great coupons from Annie's, Organic Valley and Stonyfield) to help you Rock the Lunchbox. Simply leave a comment below with your best lunch box meal, and you will be entered in the giveaway. One winner will be chosen at random on 9/21/13, and the prize will be delivered directly to you from Honest Kids.
Disclosure: I was sent a sample of Honest Kids juices, Annie's Homegrown products as well as coupons for the other companies mentioned to review for this giveaway. I did not receive any other compensation. I only work with brands I believe in and would feed my family.

Enjoyed it a lot! It was unpretentious and relaxed. I was very nervous going to this class as I've never taken an acting class in LA. Josh was friendly and made me feel comfortable. I'm signing up for more classes!
Anyone can and should take this class. You don't have to be an actor or an aspiring one. Just be yourself and experience free expression. The exercises were great.
I highly recommend this. Thanks Goldstar for offering a unique event!

Greetings all. For all of you who don't know me, my real name is Tony and I live up in FarNorCal (Redding, California) with my wife and daughter. I'm putting together a scrapbook like thing with funny (at least to myself) quotes and comments for my daughter for when she gets to be old like me (31). I'm running a wee bit low on ideas and thought maybe the bright wonderful people (well,
most of you some of you) here at Mile High Hockey could give me a good punchline / quote for the following picture (not like we have anything hockey to talk about). Thank you for your time and the Red Wings suck.

Review Details
Product Review (submitted on January 19, 2013):
Saves my skin every winter
For me, this is not an everyday product, but it saves my skin in the winter. I'm prone to break-outs, so I find its a little too heavy for everyday use, but when the weather temps drop, it wreaks havoc on my skin. A little Quench goes a long way. After cleansing, I apply a few drops of Quench over my face, followed by Kate Somerville Total Vitamin Antioxidant Face Serum and Nourish Daily Moisturizer. During the winter, I do this routine 3-4 times per week and I never have problems with dry flaky skin. A little does go a long way.

Muffle your laughter, please.
I've been a pretty vocal critic of McLouth for a few years, even when he was on what is now clear was a very flukey ride to an All-Star season and Gold Glove in 2008. There are a few reasons I've never cared that much for him as a player, with the biggest being his statuesque range in center field. He's also small, which made his power spurt in Pittsburgh very suspect. His meltdown with the Braves this year got him demoted to AAA, where he's batting all of .234.
So, with me saying all this, why even float the idea of reacquiring him from Atlanta?
- McLouth has pop in his bat. It's been utterly absent in Atlanta this year, but he does have five dingers in his month in AAA, which suggests that he might have some power left in the tank.
- He could probably be had for next to nothing. The Braves think poorly enough of him that he's in the minors while they're in a pennant race and giving playing time to...wait for it...Matt Diaz, Rick Ankiel, Melky Cabrera, and Eric Hinske. That's getting pretty low. They also have Jordan Schafer, who's cut from the same cloth as McLouth.
- He had his best days in Pittsburgh and was decent for them as recently as 15 months ago.
- He thrived playing for a bad team, which the Pirates unquestionably are. Maybe getting out of the bright lights could do him good. Even if he's only one of the better players on a bad team, he's something.
- He could play good defense in right field and be a great platoon partner for Milledge. There's also the possibility that he simply plays better, rebounds for a 2 WAR season or so, and could be traded again or hold a place until Lambo or Marte reaches the Majors.
- He would make Ryan Doumit irrelevant. His contract would be easier to pay if Doumit was traded.
Huntington loves to buy low. I know it's extremely unlikely, but if Atlanta would pay part of his contract (Nate is due 6.5M next year and has a 10M option for 2012) or take money back, would you swing a deal for him? I'm thinking something of similar value to Doumit would be enough. Or maybe an Adcock or Pribanic type low minors deal.
Remember that this is strictly a baseball move, not some kind of lovable homecoming. I have no interest in revering him as anything more than what he once was and could be: a fair complimentary player.

Law Firms
Deputy AG Jumps to Baker
Posted Jul 30, 2007 3:39 PM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty is jumping to a big law firm: Baker & McKenzie. His new job should pay enough to help him finance college for his children, his stated reason for leaving the Justice Department.
The Wall Street Journal's Law Blog reports that McNulty will work in the firm's D.C. office where he will focus on business crimes and internal corporate investigations.
While at DOJ, McNulty wrote the McNulty Memorandum, described in a Baker & McKenzie press release as "an essential element in determining how a corporation should respond to allegations of criminal wrongdoing." The memo curbed prosecutors' power to prod companies to waive attorney client privilege, but critics said it should have gone further to protect the privilege.
President Bush has named a career prosecutor, Craig Morford, to replace McNulty when he leaves. ABAJournal.com noted in an earlier post that it's unknown if the appointment is only temporary.

Noles Sweep Boston College
Posted by William Kristoph
I made it out to the Saturday blowout, but watched the Sunday game from the confines of ScalpEm.com headquarters. Tallahassee provides some of the most pleasant baseball weather you'll find anywhere in the country, especially this time of the year. That will probably last about another 2-3 weeks and then it'll be hazy, hot and humid until November. Weather aside, the Noles are 15-1 and playing some really solid, winning, baseball. It's hard to argue with winning, just as Charlie Sheen.
Saturday Thoughts:
- So much for those 2.5 hour games. Thanks to the batting practice show that the Noles put on, the game was lengthy.
- Fifteen runs when it's not gorillaball is much more interesting to me than when they're all dingers.
- Busch is the definition of "lumbering" out there. To me, he looks tired from the time he steps on the mound. It might just be a perception thing, kind of like how Hunter Scantling looks like a giant when he's really not. I mean put Scantling in the WWE and he's a small guy.
- Bright neon pink Vendor shirts are rough. I feel badly for those guys.
- Nice job by The Animals for killing the guy in the boot that was walking around with the two girls. "Oww. Oww. Oww. Oww. Owww. Owwwwww. Ow. Ow. Ow."
- It's nice to see Stuart Tapley look comfortable at the plate. I really hope the trend up continues for him in the DH role.
Sunday Thoughts:
- The camera angle in CF is brutal on Sun Sports. BRUTAL.
- Listening to "Lebben" interviewed in the middle of the game still makes me laugh in a good way, because Mike could've just recorded a CD of sound bites long ago and just handed them out. The Mike Martin mix your own sound byte CD would be a great sell to the media. Perhaps, we can get a special bonus remix of "These Young Men."
- The scouting report was dead on all weekend. Lots of credit is due for Boston College's starting pitching which was solid, but their bullpen was plain ugly.
- Thankfully, the Noles got to the pen just barely soon enough to eek out that 4-3 win on Lopez's Sac Fly.
- Someone needs to tell the guys that using gel shaving cream for the pie to the face is just harsh. It burns in the eyes. Be a pro, upgrade to some Reddi Whip or Cool Whip. Then it doesn't sting AND it's tasty.

The main floor at Waterbar features dramatic, 19-foot tall, five-foot diameter, floor-to-ceiling circular aquariums filled with an eye-catching array of fish and marine life from the Pacific Ocean, while walls of vividly illuminated fish tanks display a gallery of fresh catches available on that day's menu. The extravagant cascading raw bar, towering with shellfish and lit through glistening ice, sets the tone for the raw bar dining area.

GET HOOKED: Looking forward to a visit to historic Redmire Pool
Updated 6:02pm Monday 26th May 2014 in Sport By Jon Berry
I'M over-inclined to look back into angling's past, but have been doing so more than usual lately.
Perhaps it is because the pit is closed to allow the fish to spawn, or because I just haven't reached the back of the shed yet, where the trout rods live.
Or maybe it is because of a recent invitation. I had an email last week from my carp-catching friend Stu Harris. He's made quite a name for himself in the virtual world of blogging under the nom-de-plume The Sweetcorn Kid, and in the real world with his first book.
He's a prolific catcher of big fish, but that wasn't why he got in touch. Oh no. He wanted to know if I fancied spending a few days of my summer at Redmire Pool.
Readers with an appreciation of angling's past will know the gravity of such an invitation. Redmire, nestled in the Herefordshire countryside, is carp fishing's spiritual home. It is where Dick Walker caught his record fish in 1952, and where Chris Yates surpassed it with a carp known as The Bishop almost 30 years later.
It is also the place where Stonehouse farmer Eddie Price spotted a common carp so big that speculation about its weight continues to this day. Price's common was photographed from the pool's punt in 1958, but the resulting Box Brownie blur is startling even now. Whatever he saw that day, it was huge.
The following September, Price became the first man in Britain to land a 40lb mirror carp, with a beauty only ounces over that magical weight. Twenty-one years later, the very same fish became a record-breaker, falling for the piscatorial wiles of Chris Yates.
There are other local links to Redmire, not least the fish themselves; prior to stocking in 1934, they were kept in small ponds at the Midland Fishery at Nailsworth. Redmire's owner, Lt. Col. Barnardiston, drove down himself from Ross to collect the young carp that would go on to make history.
Now Redmire is a tricky place from which to catch a carp, and I'm just delighted to be casting a line there. I'm unlikely to repeat the heroics of Eddie Price, but I'm telling myself that the progeny of those Nailsworth fish will remember their Cotswold connections and afford me a little luck. I'll let you know how I get on.

News: Andre 3000/Hendrix Flick Hits Crash Landing, "[They've] Squashed The Hopes"
Thursday, Jul 21, 2011 5:15PM
Fans anticipating OutKast's Andre 3000 return to the big screen may be disappointed as new reports claim the biopic of late rocker Jimi Hendrix has been shelved.
While a documentary is in the works, a big screen flick will not make it to theaters.
The Experience Hendrix estate, in charge of all Hendrix material and images, have squashed the hopes of a biopic going forward, along with the our fantasy of this perfect casting. Experience Hendrix and their CEO, Hendrix's sister Janie, have "made it known many times in the past that no such film, were it to include original music or copyrights created by Jimi Hendrix, can be undertaken without its full participation." A musician's biopic without music? That is decidedly unfoxy, lady! (The Boom Box)
In early July, Captain America actress Hayley Atwell said Andre 3000 were slated to star in the film.
Next up is possibly a Jimi Hendrix biopic -- an independent film with Andre 3000 from OutKast playing Jimi Hendrix. But I don't know, really. The Atwell team is like, Let's just wait and see... Ilove how I call them Team Atwell because each of them works with fifty other people as well. Sometimes they forget who I am. I was on the phone with a member of Team Atwell once, and we chatted for like half an hour and he said, "I really loved you in that film." And I said, "I wasn't in that film." Team Atwell doesn't even know who Hayley Atwell is. (Esquire)
In the past, Dre discussed his hopes to portray Hendrix's life on film.
In an interview with the Daily News seven years ago, the OutKast rapper said he was excited about portraying the two sides of Hendrix's persona onscreen, though no project ever materialized. "Jimi was wild onstage," he said. "Offstage, he was really calm." The film never came to be, however. (New York Daily News)
Last year, Young Money's Drake credited the late Hendrix for inspiring his Light Drams & Nightmares tour visuals.
"It's a really stunning setup, heavily influenced by Jimi Hendrix," Drake told MTV News. "Not necessarily in any set that he designed, but more so his music and his vibe. It's called the Light Dreams and Nightmares Tour -- it's very psychedelic. It's very much based on day and night, like times of day, and I carry you through a full day in the show. It's really cool, and I'm enjoying it. It's great to have those elements." (MTV)

Chilli Pepper 'Inferno', a 'Hungarian Hot Wax' hybrid, produces early bumper crops over a long season on compact plants. The chillies are large, smooth skinned, and pale lime green in colour, turning red as they ripen. This moderately hot variety is ideal for roasting and frying. Height: 50cm (20"). Spread: 40cm (16").
Useful links:
Sow Chilli Pepper seeds on the surface of a good, free-draining, damp, seed sowing mix and cover with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place seed trays in a propagator at a temperature of 18-25C (64-77F) until after germination, which takes 7-10 days. Do not exclude light as this helps germination.
When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant into individual 7.5cm (3") pots of compost and grow on in cooler conditions. When plants are well grown and all risk of frost has passed, transplant them into grow bags and containers, or plant them in well prepared beds of fertile, moist, well drained soil. Chili peppers may be grown undercover in a greenhouse or polytunnel, or grown outdoors in a sheltered position in full sun. When growing chilli peppers outdoors, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days prior to transplanting them. Space pepper plants at a distance of 50cm (20") apart.

Yesterday, Glen Beck took a flag-draped Obama doll and put it in a jar of what he called urine. (no I won't provide the link)—
Michael Moore (@MMFlint) November 28, 2012
So, according to filmmaker Michael Moore, his joke that Jesus was gay was a hilarious knee-slapper, but Glenn Beck producing "Piss Christ"-inspired art with an Obama bobblehead and a jar of urine-colored beer is outrageous?
Sounds about right. Moore's joke was irreverent and edgy, natch. Beck dunking an Obama figure in beer to highlight liberal hypocrisy? Blasphemy! So blasphemous, in fact, that Moore can't even bring himself to share a link!
Progressives have made it pretty clear that Obama out-ranks Jesus when it comes to the whole messiah thing.
Moore's willfully clueless followers immediately responded to news of Beck's "Obama in Pee Pee" art with all the disgust and outrage they could muster up. And of course, they had plenty of disgust and outrage to spare since they didn't use it up on breathless outcry over "Piss Christ" or other liberal-approved freedom of expression.
@MMFlint he should be fired. Respect the President, no matter what.—

And there you have it: Dropping an Obama bobblehead into a mason jar filled with beer is now a "First Amendment abuse," kind of like making a video critical of Islam.
Therein lies the genius of Beck's "Obama in Pee Pee" stunt. Once again, liberal hypocrisy is exposed for all to see. They take the bait every single time.

Slight correction on the url for where to start transcribing:
This is a great use of "crowdsourcing" by the UofL Libraries. They want to make sure that some of Louisville's African American history gets into a searchable format so they're asking for our help.
We have a collection of the Louisville Leader newspaper, an African American newspaper that published in Louisville from 1917 to 1950. It covered all kinds of important historical events from a perspective that wasn't available elsewhere.
We're putting the scanned papers online and asking the public to help us transcribe the material so that it will be searchable full text. This will be a great opportunity for people to learn about Louisville's African American history and to contribute to the preservation of an unique resource.
Doesn't that sound like a cool project you'd like to help out? If so you can head to the transcription site and choose the article(s) you'd like to transcribe. The system is very easy, just follow the links and you'll be presented with an image of the article you can zoom in on and box to type your transcription in. Your transcription will appear below so you can review it and make any corrections you need to make and then submit it. The articles mostly appear to be short so you don't have to spend a great deal of time to have a big impact on this project.

I've been drawing this comparison ever since the season ended. Hair color aside, and Murton being faster, I've wondered why so many people are down on Murton? Defensively he isn't the best, but neither was Moreland, and he has a solid place in Cubs lore. I view both guys as solid players that love the game, and always seem to do the things a team needs to win. Murton will develop more power as he gains experience. Give Murton a chance.
And, as a side note, though I am generally against fights in baseball, Moreland was one of the best mound chargers. It would just go off in his head and he'd back in pads thinking he was a linebacker.

Wood carving from basswood blocks is a whittling art in action every Monday at the Manteca Senior Center Mondays from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m.
Lisa DeGroot is an amazing woman she's determined to make a difference.
The first annual MRPS Halloween Festival and Dance took place at the MRPS Hall on Saturday.
Hailey Ratto, 4, and her two-year-old brother Jake added their spirit to their grandfather Nick's pumpkin creations they brought into the Manteca Bulletin office this week. The family shares their art work every year dropping them off at the front door – a gift from the "Pumpkin Man." The family wished to send their thanks to Art Perry and family, The Dell Ossos and Tony Cardoza and family for their labors in producing the area's pumpkin crop.
Dave Marques once graced Oxygen women's exercise magazine's firefighter calendar as Mr. December.
Downtown merchants and property owners don't want to tax themselves to provide services and improvements specifically benefitting the Manteca's oldest shopping district through the formation of a Property-Based Business Improvement District.
Manteca's biggest Halloween family event - the MRPS Halloween Festival and Dance - takes place tonight at the MRPS Hall, 133 N. Grant St. from 4 p.m. to midnight.
Struggling families in Manteca, Ripon, and Lathrop face their bleakest Thanksgiving in 12 years.
Driving under the influence – over three times the legal limit – was the charge. It was a "hangover" though that caught the attention of several Manteca citizens.
Sometimes a remodel can completely change the way that something operates.
It was a Halloween extravaganza at the Del Webb community clubhouse that saw some 130 residents in costume take part in a wine and cheese party last week hosted by Doctors Hospital Manteca.
The fate of Rob Cox now rests in the hands of the Clark County Grand Jury.
Here's some bad news for folks who believe Manteca Police write traffic tickets to shore up the general fund to underwrite city services.

Mt. Lebanon fire kills coupleDecember 28, 2012 12:00 AM
Share with others:
In their last years, life didn't seem to come easy for Dennis and Susan Miller.
After a work accident that cost him part of a finger, he stopped working. He used an oxygen tank and, earlier this year, she broke a bone in a fall.
After their deaths Thursday in a fire in their Mt. Lebanon home, neighbor Mary Sullivan said she'll remember fondly the couple she lived beside for more than 25 years.
"I just can't believe it," she said. "It just breaks my heart."
Firefighters found Mr. Miller, 61, and Ms. Miller, 56, inside their home at 916 McNeilly Road. Crews had been dispatched to the home about 7:20 a.m. after a neighbor called to report the blaze.
The house was engulfed in flames and the roof collapsed, but crews contained the fire in about 20 to 25 minutes, Mt. Lebanon deputy police Chief Mike Gallagher said.
Inside, they found two people identified by the Allegheny County medical examiner's office as the Millers.
Mt. Lebanon fire Chief Nicholas Sohyda said the fire was accidental but remains under investigation by the Allegheny County fire marshal, who will determine cause and origin. Chief Gallagher said it was not suspicious.
Ms. Sullivan was at a nearby diner Thursday morning when she saw emergency vehicles speed by, "never dreaming that it was next door," she said.
She watched the Millers' two daughters grow up in that home, she said, and Ms. Miller sometimes baby-sat her grandson.
Despite their health and financial problems, Ms. Sullivan had noticed some improvements.
"They haven't had an easy life," she said. "They were just getting back on their feet."
Mr. Miller lost a fingertip in 2007 in a press accident in the pressroom of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, where he had worked since 1969.
The injury proved too much for him to return to work, said Rich Bogaski, president of Local 9 of the Pressmen/Paper Handlers union.
After some time on workers' compensation, Mr. Miller left the company in 2010.
As a pressman, Mr. Miller worked as an assistant and later as the person in charge of press operations, leading a crew of 16 to 18 people.
In the mid-'90s, Mr. Bogaski and some pressmen went hunting with Mr. Miller. Mr. Bogaski remembers Mr. Miller as quiet and reserved but easy to get along with.
"Denny was a nice guy, but he was hard to get to know," he said. "He kept to himself -- it was him and his family, that was it."
Neighbors also said the family valued their privacy.
Ms. Sullivan said she had talked to Ms. Miller just a few days before the Christmas holiday.
"They were always willing to help me," she said.
Fire companies responding to the blaze included Mt. Lebanon, Dormont, Baldwin and Castle Shannon.
Joe Bobyn, husband of the couple's daughter, Kalna, said the family had no comment when reached by phone Thursday afternoon.neigh_south

Jackson Police have made an arrest in connection with an attempted carjacking.
A 14-year-old was taken into custody and charged with armed carjacking, robbery, and aggravated assault.
J.P.D. responded to the scene in the 100 block of Galvez Street at the J.D. Food Mart around 3:40 Tuesday afternoon.
Investigators say 61-year-old Harry Williams was sitting in his 91 Honda Accord when three juveniles walked up to his car.
The trio demanded William's vehicle and he was shot in the upper chest.
He is at U.M.C. in stable condition.
Police expect more arrests.

Michael Page was the World and British WKA Freestyle Kickboxing Champion. Page Showboats way too much in his first pro MMA bout but knocks the snot out of fellow first timer Ben Dishman. Gets compared to Anderson Silva.
He got skill and personality, he should come to UFC!
Go figure, another classless British fighter just like Paul Daley, Bisping and Kelly. Hopefully this guy fights a real MM artist and he gets his arm broken. Showboaters like this guy don't even realize that they look stupid doing it.
people like you should be removed from society. are you plain stupid?? look how the guy was imitated by the showboating…you could see it in his eyes. so that helped page to win it…btw. bisping is a quite good fighter look at his record…but your too dumb to realize it because your a f****** keyboard warrior with no fighting experience whatsoever
of course this fight was a mismatch..lets see how page does it agains better competition but he moves quite accurate…lets see how he does it under pressure or how he does against better wrestler…
the guy he was fighting sucked. lets see him do that to someone with skill.
Cocky shithead, doesn't even acknowledge the poor guy after beating his ass. Sorry, but even Anderson is humble in victory and defeat… F*** this guy
when you said another classless…..I immediately could have sworn I was gonna read N%$%er fighter
u f****** raciest f** … how could u wish the worst for him he finish the fight had fun and if he wanted to fight another person that same day cuz he didnt get touched and hes kick was perfect
Love it! Very entertaining! He's like Ash in 'Army of Darkness!'
While obviously his competition isn't at UFC level, still have to give him props, that was a pretty sweet tornado kick…
He's still a giant tool, but he looked pretty smooth, similar style to anderson
Beats a guy who's just starting when he clearly is WAY better,skilled and expereienced.Just like a bully would do.I hope he gets smashed.The noly thing to compare him to Silva is that he<s tall and black.
go suck a dick, your comment is pathetic>
i bet you wouldnt call Daley a classless fighter to his face you dick muncher.. the best left hook in the game.
and Bisping has serious skill, sick of the hate England s*** on this website, youtube warriors and there keyboards
Great fighter with a crappy personality. Have a feeling this guy is gonna get worked by a top level grappler.
I don't understand what his opponents strengths are, he holds his hands like hes never boxed in his life, and has a terrible double leg takedown… Just seems like a fight intended as a win for Page setup by the promotion to build him up.
It was his first fight… that's a bit too much show for the first fight.
I have to admit. He is obviously a world class striker. The ending kick was amazing. He just froze and waited for the tree to fall down.
Definitely a mismatch but the guy has skill. I am glad to see that people are defending those of all ethnicities and nationalities. I remember when I first started using this site and people were saying all kinds of crazy stuff. I am glad that we are all coming together with a common bond, Bruno and MMA.
roflmao i cant stop laughing hahahaha
What weight class does he fight in?
He is obviously very fast. Lets get that young man some quality MMA training and see where this goes.
is the man
Great vid Bruno
please people lets not compare this guy to anderson silva
Pretty damn good. I'd like to fight him and have a dance battle at some random point in the fight.
All you idiots are just a bunch of haters. I thought that was one of the funniest fights iv seen in a while. And the pause after the tornado kick was just hilarity. We need some personality in MMA its not always just about kissing your opponents ass.
Well that was certainly hilarious.
He reminds me of Doctor V from Tobal 2 videogame
Like to see him against a wrestler/boxer combo. see what happens then. but we all know what will happen….
Let this guy fight someone that can actually take you down….eat some elbows and see if he dances around like a fool like that!!!..disrespect to his opponet and the sport!!
great stand up skills. I like his abnormal techniques, reminds me of Genki Sudo! I miss that guy. Anyhow, yes, he has a bit of cocky, but a lot of skill and confidence as well. Looking forward to his next fight. I hope there will be better competition and not just people fed to him.
whats up with the gay bruce buffer??
He is EXACTLY like Anderson Silva!
I agree with Doyle Brunson. The same people ridiculing this guy probably like other sports iconic douche bags, i.e. Ochocinco, Tom Brady, Kobe Bryant, ect., ect. Why? It's cause they're talented. Newsflash, right!?
Plus, he had me laughin' my arse off with the shoulder rolling and the look in his eyes at the end. Pure hilarity, indeed. ♠
Both these guys are small time. Look at Jon Jones early fights his striking wasnt very good. This guys is light years ahead of many UFC fighters in the striking department.If he gets with a good camp and learns the ground game he could make it really big.
I would love to see him try this against a pro fighter, he would be eating shots pretty quick.
I can understand the confidence and cockiness because hes young and obviously has talent.
His coaches, mature friends, family, mentors or whatever should really help him focus and concentrate on performing wisely to keep himself from making making mistakes and/or getting hurt.
Great way to get noticed quick though.
He will be in the UFC if he keeps learning and grows up.
I like seeing fighters who have & show respect.
Everything else aside though, that kick was slick.
man all these brits get real pissy when u insult their cry baby heros like bisbing and dailey.
dont worry boys hes not taking away your tea and crumpets
I also think this fight was arranged to pad his resume. His coaches know he is good enough, so they put him against a can to make sure he would look impressive and catch the eyes of bigger promoters. He will probably have a contract in a couple of fights, maybe with BAMMA.
About the showboating… well, he used it purposefully as he knew the guy he was facing would fall for it. If he fights a good striker or a much better and faster grappler, he will probably tone it down a notch. Anyway, showboating and winning is a good strategy to get a big contract, I guess…
look who he fought.
and let's see how he'd do against a wrestler. someone like chael sonnen would take him down, over and over and gas him out.
Pretty sure the real Bruce Buffer is gay also, just not as flamboyant and Liberace like as this one is
See how he'd do against a Chael Sonnen? Well if he has an ounce of ju-jitsu, he'd get taken down for 2 rounds and then submit Sonnen in the 3rd..
Page will fight a Greg Jackson fighter, run or lay and pray, ufc career over
Dear Lord let it rain brain. Jeah you can always look at a new fighter and then pick one of the best in the division and say lets see how he does against him…fighters with talent need to be build up of course they would loose against at the beginning if they would compete against one of the top 3 in the division…but I can already tell your too goddamn stupid to understand that because you never competed against someone who was tougher than your sister you little keyboard p****
up sorry for my english…I was a little bit distracted since I dont want to waste too much time on brainless apes like you
@IIIIIIII Chael is a title contender this guy just had his 1st pro fight. You think he deserves a shot at Chael already? Wow such hate why not let him fight Junior Dos Santos. This guy with the right camp may be a title contender some day. He can surely sell tickets with so much style. I like how he didnt follow up on that head kick he know there was no need. I think that showed respect and concern for the well being of his opponent.
wow….skills and confidence, let's see how far he can go
First of all, I never questioned Daley's stand up, just his character.Secondly, the word is intimidate, not imitate.Thirdly, Bisping has his fights hand picked to keep the U.K. relevant. Fourthly, I can hate this fighter because he shows a lack of respect and professionalism to his opponent.Lastly, all of you that say people can't speak about a sport if they have never played it are wrong. I draw your attention to Jon Gruden who won a Super Bowl without ever playing football on any level. How about Joe Rogan? He has never competed in MMA yet some act like he is god. I also never said I could kick any fighter's ass.I commented on the lack of character. Sorry you guys feel inadequate because you couldn't hold onto your 13 colonies 200+ years ago. Get over it, you still have N Ireland hostage.Feel good about that.
Any of you Brit's want to defend Bisping's illegal knee and spitting? Daley's late punch after the fight? How about Kelly trying to cheap shot Cerrone on the glove touch? Nope, just call me a bunch of names, spelled incorrectly of course with no facts. I was sad to see Terry Etim ko'd because he was one of the few Brits that showed class in victory and defeat.Hopefully he comes back strong.You guys need a good example to follow.

#Jets Jim Leonhard will be up in box at Heinz Field watching gm on Sun. Wanted 2 be on sideline, but tm wants 2 be careful with injury #nfl about 3 hours ago via web Retweeted by 2 people

Leonhard back on his feet
Published: January 20, 2011 2:38 a.m.
Last modified: January 20, 2011 2:41 a.m.
Just days after former Jets lineman Dennis Byrd walked into the team's meeting room to share his inspirational story of overcoming a paralyzing injury suffered on the football field, safety Jim Leonhard walked into the Jets locker room for the first time in more than a month on his own strength. Leonhard, who suffered a season-ending knee injury in December, had been relegated to moving around in an electric scooter.
Now the Jets safety and the man considered the "quarterback of the secondary" scooted around the Jets locker room on his own two feet yesterday.
"Everything is looking good," Leonhard told Metro. "X-Rays looked good. Everything is on track."
This week is the first time that Leonhard, who moved with a slight limp, has walked around on his own two feet. The injury was a result of a collision with a practice squad player, shelving Leonhard right before the Week 13 showdown in New England. He voiced his frustration at not being able to help the team on the field for Sunday's AFC championship game but plans on going to the game to support his teammates.
"I'm ready to play now," Leonhard said. "I just don't think the team's trainers are ready for me to do that."
Leonhard remains uncertain about being available for offseason training and conditioning but he said his goal is to be back on the field for next season. Posted by Jim and Katie on 1/20/2011

1. How does Sunday's games impact the Wild Card race in the East?
Three of the four teams playing on Sunday are in a battle for the two Wild Card spots in the Eastern Conference. Montreal has a bit of separation over the teams chasing the final playoff seed, but a loss against Winnipeg could close the gap. Meanwhile, the winner of Detroit's game against Washington can leapfrog Philadelphia for the final Wild Card spot.
2. Can the Capitals finally pull themselves together?
Washington snapped a seven-game losing streak last Saturday, only to drop two of its next three last week. The playoff race in the East is up for grabs, but a continued poor run of form could drop Washington out of the conversation entirely. Can the Capitals rebound against Detroit?
3. Can Mark Scheifele continue collecting points?
After a few years of slow development, the Jets' top prospect is finally rounding into form this year. He's enjoying his best stretch of the season right now with 12 points in his last 12 games. Can he keep it up?
4. Speaking of hot streaks, can Detroit slow down Alex Ovechkin?
Alex Ovechkin looks at Scheifele's streak and laughs. Ovi has eight points in his last four games, a torrid stretch even by his standards. Detroit is beat up on the blueline, so expect the Red Wings to lean heavily on Niklas Kronwall and Danny DeKeyser to stop Ovechkin Sunday.
5. Will a line change continue paying dividends for Montreal?
The struggling Canadiens decided to place Danny Briere on a line with Tomas Plekanec and Brian Gionta last week, and Briere has scored goals in consecutive games. If that line plays well on Sunday, the Habs have a good chance at winning.

Pacer Nation,
I have recently posted on Orlandopinstripedpost.com an idea for a trade that I think helps both teams. The Pacers are facing a dilemma regarding their cap/luxury tax situation while trying to compete for a championship while the Magic are in full rebuild mode and need some cap relief. I have copied parts of the post verbatim but have left out some of the context as it pertains to Magic fans. I am curious how this looks from your perspective--comments are very welcome!
....The fact of the matter, is that when you look at trading guys like Jameer, Big Baby, and Afflalo, you have to step out of your Magic-fan shoes and remember that around the league, Jameer is still viewed as an undersized PG on the wrong side of 30 and Davis is viewed as a highly serviceable backup PF, but just that--a backup. Afflalo is the most attractive trade chip because he is 27, has a decent contract and can score the ball and defend. But there are only certain types of teams that are in the market for their services. So, as much as I'd like to think we could get a couple more Tobias Harris's for the three of these guys, I just don't see it happening. However, what is the ultimate goal when trading these players?
Get Their Contracts Off The Books. Period.
If we can get something in return, that's terrific. But really, we just want to create minutes for the youth on the roster and clear cap space so that we can sign players that fit into our rebuilding process or have the space to keep some of these young guys when their rookie contracts are up.
The certain type of teams that will be in the market for these players are contenders who will have low value draft picks they might be willing to part with in exchange veteran talent that will help them win now. The team I'm looking at today is the Indiana Pacers. Here is my proposed trade:
Indiana receives:
G Aaron Afflalo
Orlando receives:
2014 1st Round Draft Pick
First, let's look at the basketball side of this trade. Paul George is a small forward and not a shooting guard. He plays much better at the 3 spot because he can use his quickness and athleticism against slower guys at the position, (save LeBron James) rather than speedier 2 guards. Moving the oft-injured, and now 30-year-old Granger allows George to start at his natural position while bringing in an all-around solid shooting guard in Afflalo, who's contract is all in his prime basketball years (27-30). A starting backcourt of Hill (6'3") and Afflalo (6'5") would still give Indiana good size, and Afflalo's skills as a defender would fit right in with the Pacers identity. In Glen Davis, they get the perfect backup to David West. Another talented defensive player, Davis would do more than fill the void left by Tyler Hansbrough while giving great energy off the bench along with sparkplug Lance Stephenson and newly-signed Chris Copeland. Davis' contract is also in his prime years.
Now, this deal would have a very real impact on Indiana's cap-situation. Currently, they are committed to $52 million according to basketball-reference.com but with the additions of CJ Watson, Chris Copeland, Solomon Hill, and the re-signing of David West, their payroll will be roughly $70 million. However, Paul George will be a restricted free agent at the end of the 2013-2014 season and while Indiana will undoubtedly match any offer for the young All-Star currently on his rookie contract, you can be certain a team will max him out in order to make Indiana pay a hefty price tag (Lance Stephenson is in the same situation, though he will probably demand only 4-6 million per year).
This means if they make this trade, committing to the contracts of Davis and Afflalo, they will have to go about $18 million into the luxury tax in order keep George (assuming the tax threshold is still roughly $72 million). Would they rather watch Granger's contract expire and save some money when re-signing George? Any other roster additions they would want to make would have to be minimum contracts as they would still be $4 million into the luxury tax once George is signed at the max. Or would they be willing to go all-in with a core of Hill-Afflalo-George-West-Hibbert over the next 2-3 years? The fact that they spent the money to re-sign David West might indicate they are willing to spend if it will deliver a championship. And the luxury tax is usually meant for those who want to win championships.
As for the Magic, they would get Granger's expiring 14 million dollar contract (along with his knees), which they could try to flip at the deadline (they would have to let Granger log major minutes to keep his trade value up) or simply let expire as he rides the pine. This would allow young players like Victor Oladipo and Tobias Harris to get the playing time they need to develop. Orlando would also get another first-round pick from the highly touted 2014 draft class, which they can use to draft another young player or use as a trading chip. Although it would likely be in the 20's and would certainly be no Andrew Wiggins, which is presumably why Indiana would be okay parting with it, Hennigan has proven he can find NBA level talent deep in the draft.
Let me hear your thoughts!

(National) August 31, 2005 - Federal officials have declared a public health emergency for the entire Gulf Coast.
Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff says the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina is "very dangerous."
Health and Human Services Secretary Michael Leavitt says his agency is concerned about potential disease outbreaks. He's urging residents of the storm area to boil water, follow food safety guidelines, and be aware of possible carbon monoxide poisoning from generators.
Medical experts from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are headed to the area.
Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta says his agency is working to restore highways, airports, and seaports. Environmental Protection Agency director Stephen Johnson says anti-pollution standards for gasoline are being eased throughout the country until September 15th.
The mayor of New Orleans says at least hundreds of people are dead in the city, and maybe thousands, in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
Mayor Ray Nagin also says it will be at least two or three months before New Orleans has electricity. During that time, he says, there will be no commmerce in the city.
President Bush won't be visiting the hurricane-ravaged Gulf Coast just yet, but he's been able to see the damage already from the air.
His flight from his Texas ranch to Washington detoured over the storm's path. Air Force One descended to an altitude of about 5,000 feet so that Bush could view some of the most damaged areas.
The president might visit the storm area later in the week. Katrina has left thousands homeless in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.

One 57-year-old man died of cancer in his flooded home after Hurricane Katrina struck. His grieving common-law wife wrapped the body in a sheet and floated it on two-by-fours to a main road. The body rested on a grassy median for hours until a man persuaded the driver of a flatbed truck to take it to a hospital.
Former city worker Curtis Miller says he was disgusted that so many vehicles passed by without stopping.
On Tuesday, New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin said hundreds, if not thousands, of people may still be stuck on roofs and in attics. As a result, he said, rescue crews in boats don't have time to deal with the dead bodies they encounter. He says they're just pushing them aside.
Lifelong New Orleans resident Quentina Green was rescued by boat with her husband and four children. She said they didn't leave their home before the storm hit because the family didn't have the money to evacuate. Her husband, Thomas Green, said they lost everything. Now, he says, they'll "start from scratch, start all over, that's all we can do."
It appears the death toll from the storm will be high. One survivor after another told of friends and loved ones who floated off or disappeared as the floodwaters rose around them.( Citizen Journalists | Katrina Aftermath Slideshow)
The governor of Louisiana says there's a plan in the works to evacuate those who are left in the city of New Orleans, including the thousands who've taken shelter at the Superdome and elsewhere.
Kathleen Blanco called the the situation "untenable and heartbreaking."
Because of two levees that broke Wednesday, the city is rapidly filling with water, and power may be down for a long time. Blanco says the storm severed a major water main, leaving the city without drinkable water.
In Mississippi, authorities say at least 100 people have died in a coastal county slammed by Hurricane Katrina.
An official in Harrison County, home of Biloxi and Gulfport, says he's "very, very worried" that the number of dead could as he puts it, "go double or triple the latest toll."
Rescuers in boats and helicopters are searching feverishly for possible survivors. Harrison County coroner Gary Hargrove had this advice for rescuers who encounter bodies: "If they're dead, they're dead. We've got the living to take care of."
Authorities had said earlier that at least 30 residents were killed when Katrina wiped out an apartment building. Survivors described a scene of pandemonium as they fled the rising water. A woman who swam to safety with her boyfriend says they pushed floating cars out of the way.
Governor Haley Barbour of Mississippi says it was "a very bad disaster in terms of human life."
The mayor's office in Biloxi says a massive storm surge knocked out five casinos. It damaged the Hard Rock Cafe and washed out the bottom floor of a condominium. Along one Mississippi highway, motorists have been using chainsaws to remove trees blocking the road.
Authorities say rising water in New Orleans has forced one hospital to send patients to the Superdome, where thousands are sheltering. The city's police chief warns people who are outside the city not to come back. He says the situation is bad and "we need people to cooperate" and not get in the way.
Katrina, now downgraded to a tropical depression, has also knocked out power to more than a million people from Louisiana to Florida's Panhandle. Officials say restoring power could take months.
Hurricane Katrina barreled toward New Orleans on Sunday with 160-mph winds and a threat of a 28-foot storm surge, forcing a mandatory evacuation of the below-sea-level city and prayers for those who remained to face a doomsday scenario.
New Orleans appeared to avoid a direct hit when the storm turned slightly to the east before hitting land Monday morning. The center of Hurricane Katrina crashed ashore just east of Grand Isle, Louisiana, about 60 miles south of New Orleans. The storm was a Category-Four, with sustained winds of 150 miles-per-hour.
The National Hurricane Center estimates the strongest winds to hit New Orleans were about 100 miles-per-hour. Authorities in New Orleans say at least 40,000 homes have been flooded.
A 20-foot storm surge pounded homes in Mississippi. WLOX , one of WIS' sister stations in Mississippi, suffered severe damage from the storm, although the on-duty staff say they are all safe.
Only three Category 5 hurricanes, the highest on the Saffir-Simpson scale , have hit the United States since record-keeping began. The last was 1992's Hurricane Andrew, which leveled parts of South Florida, killed 43 people and caused $31 billion in damage. The other two were the 1935 Labor Day hurricane that hit the Florida Keys and killed 600 people and Hurricane Camille, which devastated the Mississippi coast in 1969, killing 256.
Katrina is the 11th named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season. Normally, there are only two or three named storms by this time in the season, which began June first and ends November 30.

I started up a 3-5 minute full strength contraction labor pattern Thanksgiving evening around 11pm. It continued throughout the night, keeping me from sleeping. This continued all the next day as well. I was able to knit some, but mostly stayed on the birthing ball trying to get things going in the hopes that this early labor wouldn't last as long as it did with Renna's birth. No such luck. I went to bed around 11pm and the contractions spaced out enough for me to sleep a few hours at a time. I woke up at 6am and couldn't sleep anymore and the contractions were back to every 3-5 minutes, lasting a minute to a minute and a half. The in-laws were taking Jamie and Renna to the Children's museum, so I knew I'd have some peace and quiet for a few hours. After everyone was up I went back to bed and stayed in the bedroom. I didn't really want anyone around me. I kept up drinking and peeing and eating, with Mama bringing me food and drinks and checking in on me regularly, and tried to rest when it felt right and move around when that felt right. I expected to want to go in the shower at some point but I didn't. After the in-laws came back with the kids, they had some leftovers and then left to drive back to Oregon. The kids resisted going to bed. Renna had wanted to be with me as much as possible and wanted even to sleep in my bed while I labored. The moans didn't bother her much. She seemed to want to comfort me, but seemed to have an understanding that it was okay and what needed to happen. That is what we told her, but she didn't need any reassurance about it. But she wanted to help me and was upset when Mama and Michael made her go to bed. Jamie was very upset. He didn't like the moaning. I don't think he remembered Renna's birth at all. He came to see me, but would leave pretty soon after a contraction. He didn't want me to be in pain. He was excited that it meant Sean was coming, but the labor and me being uncomfortable were just things he didn't like AT ALL. He was the same way when he saw I was in the hospital for the infection. As soon as he got on video chat and saw a hospital bed behind me, his face crumpled and he left very upset and didn't talk to me again until I was back at Bridget's house. It didn't matter that I told him I was okay. Around midnight the contractions were coming about every 2 minutes and lasting a minute to a minute and a half. So we decided to go to the hospital because I didn't want to be in transition while driving there. Mama and Michael decided he would go with me and she would stay home with the kids. Renna woke up and climbed into bed with Mama pretty much as soon as we left. We got there and checked in around 12:30am. They checked me around 1:30am and I was 5cm, 80%. Not great. Clearly hospital syndrome in effect. I was starting to lose control and having great difficulty dealing with the pain and intensity. While not transition, it was clearly getting there. There was no back labor, this time, but that didn't seem to matter much for pain level. The doc checked me around 2am and I was 6cm, 100%, and the head was at +2. They moved me to a room around 3am and I walked all the way there taking like 15 minutes, and Oh My God that was awful. After getting to the room I labored sitting up in the bed. I used to like leaning over the bed, but I didn't like that this time. The doc checked me again just before 4 am, I think. I was 7cm, 100% (still), and at -2. She said I had a lot of amniotic fluid and that was what keeping Sean from coming down. Yeah, amazingly my water hadn't broken yet. That was like the first thing to go with my labors with Jamie and Renna so I had been surprised it hadn't yet. So she broke my water and I swear I must have contained the entire Pacific Ocean in there. With every contraction I soaked the new towels and eventually soaked the bed, too. They started bringing in the warming table and getting everything ready for birth, and that made me feel somewhat hopeful that this wasn't going to go on for another 6 hours. After 6 contractions that were beyond awful with no rest between them, I couldn't keep from pushing and said so and was getting a bit desperate. They brought the doc in and she checked me again and said there was a cervical lip all the way around and I couldn't push yet. I tried my best but even what helped me not push with Renna didn't work at all. The last half of a contraction and my uterus would contract very hard on it's own and nothing in this world was ever going to stop it. (Apparently there is some debate about whether or not pushing on a cervical lip is really the wrong thing to do or if it just helps to complete dilation, but that's a discussion for another time.) After 2 or 3 contractions I knew it wasn't working and said so and asked for help. Begged might be a better word. She checked me again and I had a lip on two sides and she said she'd just push them back. And then I had to roll over because as Sean was turning down the birth canal they couldn't get a read on his heartbeat with the monitor, and that took some serious doing and I think in the end they had to help roll me over. I tried moaning through it the way I did with Renna but it wasn't as productive as pushing without moaning, so I tried to do it without vocalizing and it did feel better. After 4 contractions he was born. It was 4:21am. Less than 4 hours after arriving at the hospital. Less than half an hour after breaking my water. They put him on my chest right away. He was purple and I started talking to him and rubbing him. He was moving and lifting his head and gurgling so he was okay, but they asked to take him to the warmer to help get the fluid out and I said okay. He started crying a minute later, but it was a quiet cry. Every sound he made was quiet, but certain. He pinked up quickly and they brought him back to me and he laid there looking around quietly and making little growly noises. Like a bear. Jamie said Sean should be a bear and he was right. So they were working on delivering the placenta, which took a few pushes and got stuck halfway. Fun stuff. I was bleeding a bit more than she was comfortable with, and she said she wanted to give me pitocin to help it and I said fine. It did make the after contractions a bit more owie and of course them pushing on the uterus to help empty it out and shrink it was not the most fun I've ever had. So then she was sewing me up for what seemed like forever. I tore just like I had with Renna, third degree back and first degree front. I think it was at that point that I said, "Can I have some pain killer now?" Haha. They gave me fentanol. Ah, the good stuff. Around 5am Sean started nursing and he nursed for the next 2 hours straight. They wheeled us into a room in the maternity ward around 6am and left us alone. I stayed awake and ordered breakfast around 7am when Sean decided he was done eating and went to sleep for what would be a 4 hour nap. Mama came with Jamie and Renna around 11:30am. Jamie came in smiling and so very happy and relaxed and said, "Hi, Mama! I love you! Where's baby Sean?" Haha! Renna came in and said, "I want to see baby Sean!" They held him and kissed him then sat with me and snuggled a bit. It was wonderful.
It's been a week and I'm feeling much better. The OB was appalled that I still had the tube and had me call the urologist that day to try to schedule an appointment to get it out. They couldn't fit me in until this coming Wednesday, so I'm looking forward to getting rid of this damn thing. I may need to have a stent put in so the stoma will heal but he'll have to evaluate that when the tube actually comes out. They'll need to take the gallbladder eventually, too. But that will probably be in a few months. I am so thrilled to be feeling better. And I am. The kidney pain is much better now and the tube is capped off and everything's working properly the way it should. There was no sediment even two days after the birth, which is how I knew I could cap it off and it'd be fine. I'm gaining strength every day. The tube still bothers me, of course, but it's better. I'm so hopeful to be healthy and normal soon. Until then I'll be having a babymoon with my little miracle. We sleep very well together, especially on the couch with him on my chest. He still wants to be in the womb, and that's as close as he can get. And we both love it.
The birth was intense and I wasn't as composed as I was with Renna's birth. In early labor Mama took good care of me, leaving me alone when I wanted it and bringing me drinks and food, and staying with me when I wanted her to. At the end, I was the screaming woman in movies who no one wants to be. Seriously. But for a hospital birth, it was very good. The doctor treated me with respect and was responsive and didn't treat me like I was a difficult patient for being a vbac. Perhaps that's in large part because labor was so advanced and progressing so rapidly, but I appreciated it. Michael was helpful and helped me keep what endurance and focus I had. He didn't promise that things were almost over, he just told me how well I was doing, how strong I was, how every contraction brought Sean closer to us, and got me to breathe. He could tell when I was nearing transition and his calm and confidence really helped me know that things weren't going to last forever and that it was okay. Although, to a certain extant, I'm not sure how much I heard him sometimes. I was so busy trying to hang on and find that calm place I had with Renna's and Charlie's births. Throughout the labor, I wanted to be holed up away from distractions, dangers, people, etc. I think my endurance and pain tolerance were severely impacted by all the pain I've been in for the last 4.5 months. I just didn't have any more endurance left. I just didn't have the reserves for handling labor the way I wanted. But in the end, I did it. I gave birth to my son. And he's amazing. Before leaving for the hospital, I told Mama and Michael that I didn't want to do this again. No more labors. If I was going to have any more children it would have to be a scheduled cesarean because I was done. My boy is eight days old today. And I've already decided he's should have a little brother or sister.

News: 50 Cent Predicts Rick Ross & Triple C's First-Week Numbers, "They Can Break 10K If They Buy Some" [Video]
Sunday, Nov 1, 2009 10:30AM
50 Cent has made his prediction on the first-week sales for Rick Ross and Triple C's debut project, Custom Cars & Cycles, and said their group record could sell over 10,000 copies if they purchased a certain amount themselves.
Speaking with DJ Ekin, Fif also explained his "death blow" toward rap rivals.
"[The public] is looking for the actual death blow to impact immediately," Fif said in an interview. "The death blow, when I hit you with it, you gotta wait six months later. It's dead. He's dead. When I threw the death blow to Fat Joe, it was [2008's] Elephant In The Sand and then six months later, new CD comes out and he sells 8,300 copies. Threw the death blow to Rick, boom, six months later, Triple C's CD come Tuesday, you gonna find what those numbers are and you're gonna fall out. You're gonna identify with the death blow. They can break ten [thousand copies] if they buy some. They can buy some. I don't know [all their names]. We know the police officer. We know the one that got knocked out. We know the kid from the Bronx. He's the tough one, right? The other guy, he wasn't sure if he wanted dreads or he wanted a flat top...People are developing this thing with me where they feel like I'm the bad guy, like I have bad intentions. It's not actually true, actually, I'd like to speak with the kids and tell them, 'Please, do not be this. Do not be like this.' [laughs] You understand?" (My Place)
Posted on ThisIs50.com last week, 50 used an image of the rappers' new album with the Jodeci label.
"Best Of...Jodeci Let me hear your say Yeahhhhhhyeeeeah," the banner reads. "With classics Hits like 'Forever my Burgers, Gunplay ill Cry for you and Can I Handcuff You this is a Must Buy." (This Is 50)
50 recently made his prediction on the group's new album upon its arrival to stores last week.
"Triple Cs is next," Fif promised. "And then Rick Ross is going to follow that failure. Def Jam dumped a whole lot of marketing dollars into trying combat me with Rick Ross. More money than they should have. What his numbers were versus what Jadakiss did, didn't make financial sense. So the next go-around, they're going to give him his fair share instead that extra piece of pie. Then you're going to see where he really is." (Complex)
According to an interview with Ross last month, the rapper benefited financially from his taunts at 50's camp earlier this year.
"I made more money, you know what I mean, after you crush such a huge donkey," Ross said referring to 50. "I'm the only one that put out a number one album and we in this business to put out records and put up numbers and generate funds and as you can see, I'm putting out another number one album while [G-Unit] hasn't put out one. So it's elementary to me and I think they learned their lesson, they know to keep going, R.I.P. Hold up, let's give a moment of silence, it's only right to bow our heads for Lloyd Banks. I pray my career don't be like Lloyd Banks'." (Real Talk NY)
Check out 50 Cent speaking on Rick Ross & Triple C's below:


text: Counterpoint: Today is a sunny day for socialism. It is no coincidence that our shadow nanny government has shoved two pinko commie rat-traps down our throat in the same week. The two highest courts (Supreme and NCAA court) in the land have ruled that good ole American capitalist moxie is out, and the government bossing you around is way-in. Socialized medicine and socialized college football. This will ruin the game, and when players get hurt they will have to go to some crummy, amateurish, second-rate gov'ment hospital for treatment. The uncertainty, redundant games, BCS computer bias, and competing bowls is what made college football great. The game used to metaphorically represent capitalism, the greatest teams rising above to fulfill their manifest destiny, and if success had as much to do with talent and winning as that team's historical dominance, well then hey, that's just the way of the world, bub. But it is all over now. All that tradition and meaning lost in the fold of the NCAA's silver-dollar lined umbrella. The Rose Bowl is doomed to be renamed the 1-800-Flowers.Com Bowl, OSU will somehow get screwed by Georgia Tech, and our old friend the BCS computer will be sold for parts. Mark my words: When you are peeling potatoes in the brig as punishment for thought-crime, you are going to miss that damned computer.

Oxnard woman may lose plea deal in bank slaying case
An Oxnard woman who was a witness in her former boyfriend's capital murder case could lose her agreement with prosecutors and possibly stand trial for first-degree murder.
Christina Deleon, wearing blue and orange jail garb, appeared before Judge David Coleman in Ventura County Superior Court on Thursday. Deleon, 26, was a prosecution witness in the capital murder trial of Jeffrey Aguilar.
Jurors Sept. 25 found Aguilar guilty of first-degree murder and second-degree robbery for fatally shooting Gurmohinder Singh, 55, on Aug. 16, 2008, as he left a US Bank branch in Oxnard with $100,000 cash for his check-cashing and store business.
Judge Vincent O'Neil sentenced Aguilar to death last month.
Prosecutors said Deleon signed a statement June 30, 2011, that she was with Aguilar and a man named Mario Cervantes the night before the slaying. In the statement, Deleon said Aguilar told her to wait for him in a car the next morning with the trunk open. He told her to drive away as soon as he jumped into the trunk, prosecutors said.
Under the agreement, Deleon was told she could get a sentence of 20 years if she testified truthfully at Aguilar's trial, according to Senior Deputy District Attorney Andrea Tischler.
During her testimony in Aguilar's trial, however, Deleon repeatedly answered, "I don't know," or, "I don't recall," when Tischler questioned her about the killing.
After her testimony, Tischler called Deleon a "hostile" witness.
Deleon's attorney, Bob Bernstein, on Thursday asked Coleman to continue the hearing so he could have enough time to confer with Deleon because of a potential conflict that could arise if prosecutors file a motion to withdraw Deleon's initial plea deal and move forward with a trial.
"If my client has a defense that I, as her attorney, could have or should have done something different ... I don't want to foreclose that defense from her," Bernstein said. "That puts me in an untenable position. Now, if she determines she wants to withdraw that defense, I can't advise her on that. That also puts me in an untenable position.
"I've been doing this for 45 years, and I've never been in this position before."
Tischler said she might call Bernstein as a witness if a motion is filed to withdraw Deleon's deal and a trial proceeds.
"I have concerns at this stage about the situation we are in right now," Tischler said. "I am aware that the defendant has made statements that her attorney is ineffective."
Coleman agreed to continue the hearing to Wednesday.
Deleon's mother, Sharon Paramo, who was at Thursday's hearing, said she is concerned that her daughter may not have been given enough information on her options.
"I'm not sure she clearly knows what is happening," Paramo said. "I am trying to understand this myself. All I want is for my daughter to do what's right in every aspect.
"Everyone has been affected. I look at a man who has lost his life and a young man who is looking at death row. I tell Christina to be a woman of integrity and do what's right."

NON-LEAGUE: SAM Cutler scored on his Tilbury debut as Dockers defeated Needham Market in a controversial contest at Chadfields.
Needham's midfielder Duane Wright scored at both ends to ensure Tilbury snatched all three points in a 2-1 win.
The victory was Dockers' eighth of the season but only their third win in seven, following defeat to Grays in October which led to a slight dip in form.

Winning the SEC East is more important that beating Clemson. Once, twice or three times in a row. While it sure feels good, it's obvious that the East is more important. Why? No one cares about us. At least that's the way it feels. I feel like we are just a story that gets buried behind LSU-Bama(can't blame 'em there...), Arkansas being the third best and unfortunately behind a team that we beat in UGA. We are ranked higher, as is Arkansas higher than us, but are now just in the backseat. Here's what I have noticed:
1. We beat our rival from the same conference as UGA's rival, be we won in a larger margin of victory.
2. We got to 10 wins for the 2nd time in the history of our school, LSU: I know you're undefeated first time in history, respect, but at least you are rightfully being discussed.
3. We get no Helmet Stickers from Chris Low.
4. Most importantly, we get no mention in the what we learned column. Hey Chris, how about we learned the HBC can still coach, even with injuries and dismissals? How about we learned Connor Shaw can still play QB against a team with a lot of talent? Let's be honest, Clemmy has some athletes on D and Connor played a great game running and throwing. But UGA gets mentioned by C. Low. He praises the level of football they are playing to finish the year.... did you see that UK game? I know Kentucky just beat Tennessee for the first time in 24 years.... but really? UGA is still inconsistent and to offer blanket praise completely ignores what they did one week ago. To any UGA fans, I know you have won ten straight and throttled a team that beat us at home, but if you're ok with the mystery of which team will show up next week.... pass me a glass of what you're drinking.
It's for all of these reasons that Spurrier is right. The East is important. The most important goal on our schedule, because it makes us more relevant. While I'm thrilled to have beaten teams like UT, UF, UGA and CU all in the same year (again) the East is priority number 1. Thanks to the HBC for changing the culture. That doesn't take away from the accomplishments from this group of players. Actually, this bunch of guys seems like they will use this as motivation for 2012. Now for god's sake, win the darn bowl game!!

People in the know know George Butts.
But if you're not connected to city staff, City Council or out and about with community organizations, you might not.
For my first 15 years in Manhattan Beach, I didn't.
At the end of 2011, Manhattan Beach Patch asked readers to nominate a volunteer of the year. Two names were given: George Butts and Jeanne Jackson.
At the Tuesday night City Council, the Manhattan Beach Community Emergency Response Association will be recognized by council, city staff and the community for its nonstop efforts to be be a deployable resource to assist the city in the event of an emergency or disaster.
Let's learn a little about MBCERTA and Butts.
Manhattan Beach Patch: How long have you been a member of MBCERTA?
George Butts: Prior to our organization, I took the CERT class in 2006.
MB Patch: When was MBCERTA formed?
Butts: In February of 2008, eight of us met in my backyard with [MB fire department] Battalion Chief Frank Chiella.
MB Patch: How long have you been its president?
Butts: Since the beginning.
MB Patch: When and why did you move to MB?
Butts: In 1992, my wife got transferred here to the South Bay.
MB Patch: What do you do for work when you're not volunteering for MBCERTA?
Butts: I have worked for Taxi Equipment Co. since moving here -- one of the top three equipment distributors and manufacturers in the U.S.
MB Patch: It seems as though you're always busy, but, when you're not, what do you do to relax and what do you like to do in your spare time?
