How is it that twins with identical genes could age differently? A new study from Cleveland University Hospitals Case Medical Center, studied dozens of pictures of twins who attended the Annual Twins Day Festival and researchers found that we might be born with a blueprint of how we should age, but a lot of outside influences can speed up that plan.
You've probably heard that smoking, drinking and sun exposure can make you age faster, the Cleveland University study also found that people who lose a lot of weight after age 40 may become healthier on the inside while those who gain weight after age 40 may look younger on the outside.
Dr. Bahman Guyuron of University Hospitals Case Medical Center, says, "If you gain weight after age 40, you're going to look younger. What we are advocating is not losing excessive weight, because some individuals, erroneously, feel that if they lose weight, particularly become real, real thin, they're going to look attractive, they're going to look younger, which is not the case."
Doctors are not saying that you should gain weight to lose wrinkles, the simple fact is your lifestyle really can change how good you look and how fast you age. The study also found that twins who were divorced looked years older than the twin who wasn't, adding to the theory that stress plays a role in how quickly we age.

Sony Closing PSP Comic Store
Posted on Monday, October 1 @ 11:51:25 Eastern by Nicholas Tan
As the Vita becomes the focal point of Sony's handheld market, their support for the PSP will be dropping steadily. So it comes to no surprise that Sony has announced that the Comic Store for PSP will be discontinued after October 13. This is so that they can "bring more digital entertainment services" to "other Sony devices".
A certain portion of the content will be available for download until mid-January 2013, but after that point, you won't be able to re-download the content. Media Go, a PC application, can be used to back up those comics prior to that.
Should the Vita pick up this digital comic service?

Franklin Morales allowed three runs while recording just one out in the eighth, leaving the Red Sox trailing the Rangers after nine innings in Fenway, victims of another sweep.
Like us to subscribe
The Red Sox were swept by the Texas Rangers this week, and Josh Beckett started the final game of the series, throwing seven innings.
And although his efforts weren't enough for the Red Sox to overcome the powerful lineup of the Texas Rangers, manager Bobby Valentine was pleased with Beckett's outing, saying he 'pitched plenty good to win the game.'
It has been a frustrating home stand for the Red Sox, who have now lost four straight games and dropped to 4-8, last in the American League East.
Pitching has been the primary cause of concern, as the Red Sox have surrendered 74 runs already this season, by far the highest total in the MLB.
The team will look to turn over a new leaf on Friday against the New York Yankees, who they will host for a weekend series in conjunction with the 100th anniversary celebration of Fenway Park.

The Red Sox have been swept in Fenway, now matching their three-game winning streak with a three-game losing streak on the back of a 3-6 loss to the Texas Rangers.
The game started out much the same way as Tuesday's disaster did, with the Sox taking an early 2-0 lead on a home run off the bat of the beleaguered Kevin Youkilis in the bottom of the second. And then, quick as a whip, the Rangers put together a run in the top of the third, and Mike Napoli seized the lead right back with a two-run homer of his own in the fourth, much like he had on Tuesday.
While Josh Beckett had run into trouble early, he would end up faring much better than Jon Lester on the whole, settling down in the fifth and retiring nine straight to finish his night with seven innings pitched, three runs to his name, and seven strikeouts to just the one walk.
The Red Sox still seemed to have a chance at the win until the eighth, when Franklin Morales stuck a bit of a fork in an already-struggling Boston bullpen, surrendering three runs on a single, a pair of walks (one intentional, one not), a hit batsman, and a big double to Mike Napoli to put the Sox down four. While they tried to rally in the ninth, Jarrod Saltalamacchia had the misfortune to hit an absolute rocket right at Brandon Snyder, who caught it in the air for the out, and then stepped on the bag to double up Ryan Sweeney, who had just singled home the third Red Sox run of the night.
Point of No Return: Last year, the Sox started the year 2-10 before turning it around and going on an incredible run that lasted right up until...September. Of course, that required them to be one of the best teams in baseball, and they still missed the playoffs, but if you factor in September and assume this team won't suffer quite so dramatic a collapse (if they find themselves in a position where that's even possible), it's still not too late to turn it around.
Bullpen Problems: The question is whether or not this bunch has the talent. Already considerably thin after the loss of Andrew Bailey, the Sox were rather relying on Franklin Morales to provide them with quality outs. Today, he put that ability in doubt. Of course, any reliever can struggle on any given night, especially against a team like this, but it's not a good sign that only 12 games into the season the Sox don't have a single guy who has looked strong throughout.
Thin Bench: The injury-strained roster is starting to really show its weakness, as Nick Punto came in to bat for Jason Repko and was replaced by Nate Spears in a crucial moment. Fully healthy, and if this lineup gets the start the Sox could have had Carl Crawford and Jacoby Ellsbury to choose from. What a difference a shoulder/elbow can make.
|Final - 4.18.2012
|Texas Rangers
|Boston Red Sox
|WP: Derek Holland (2 - 0)
LP: Josh Beckett (1 - 2)
For those who weren't too traumatized by last night's game to watch today's, it's time for the Red Sox and Rangers to play the second and final game of their short series.
If the Sox can turn things around and come up with a win, then as bad as Tuesday was, it all counts the same in the book: 1-1, another series if not won at least not lost. And with the Yankees coming up, having some sort of momentum can mean a great deal.
But this is all based on a pretty big "if." If not, then they've once again dropped three straight. And if they do it in the same fashion, then we should probably rename this as "The Slow Decline of a Red Sox Fan into Insanity."
We'll keep you up-to-date as the Sox go for 5-7 with Josh Beckett on the mound.
Rangers 6, Red Sox 3, Final -- The Sox made a run at it, but came away with the worst of luck as Jarrod Saltalamacchia hit and absolute screamer directly to Brandon Snyder at first with runners on the corners, allowing Snyder to double up Ryan Sweeney, who had just driven in the Sox' third run with a clutch single.
4-8. Not much more to say than that...
Rangers 6, Red Sox 2, Mid 9th -- The good news is that Matt Albers did well in the top of the ninth. The bad news it that it's still 6-2, because he can't score runs for us.
Rangers 6, Red Sox 2, End 8th -- The Sox look like they've packed it in for tonight. The top of the lineup goes down without a fight--it's been a really terrible day for Adrian Gonzalez--and Albers is headed back out for the ninth. If this means 4-8, as it likely does, then Boston is two games up on where they were last year.
So there's that.
Rangers 6, Red Sox 2, Mid 8th -- Heartbreak, thy name is Napoli. And Morales, for that matter. The one reliever who actually seemed ready to provide the eighth inning rock came in the game and quickly coughed up the game. After getting Elvis Andrus for the first out, Morales allowed a single to Josh Hamilton, and after a passed ball moved Hamilton along, elected to walk Adrian Beltre.The walk to Nelson Cruz which loaded the bases was of the unintentional variety, as was the curveball to Craig Gentry's foot after the pinch-hitter had fought off three straight 0-2 pitches.
The real death blow, however, came from who else but Mike Napoli. Shooting a double to left-center, Napoli plated two more runs and left the Red Sox staring up at a four-run deficit when all was said and done.
Rangers 3, Red Sox 2, End 7th -- In a luckier year, the Sox might not have had Jason Repko due at the plate with two outs and the tying run at second base. And, if they did, they may have had a better bat on the bench than Nick Punto to take his spot.
Unfortunately, this is an unlucky year. Their two best outfielders (Carl Crawford's struggles notwithstanding) are out of action, and so their best option against left-handed Derek Holland was Punto after all. To nobody's great surprise, Punto struck out, and the threat came to an end.
Rangers 3, Red Sox 2, Mid 7th -- Josh Beckett delivers another clean inning, and while the Sox haven't managed to take the lead back, he's not only kept them in it but kept the beleaguered Boston bullpen from needing to provide any excessive innings. With just two innings to go, if Boston can grab the lead, they'll be able to go to their prefered due of Fr
Rangers 3, Red Sox 2, End 6th -- Nothing doing for the Red Sox in the sixth, and it's really looking like it's not Adrian Gonzalez' day at this point--though all that could change once the lefty is out of the game. For now though, however, the Sox are running out of time.
Rangers 3, Red Sox 2, Mid 6th -- Now Beckett's really on a roll, striking out Nelson Cruz to start the sixth and getting David Murphy and Mike Napoli to make it six straight retired. That Mike Napoli didn't hurt the Red Sox is nothing short of a small miracle.
Rangers 3, Red Sox 2, End 5th -- The Sox threatened in the fifth, but couldn't push that crucial run across. Once again getting a leadoff baserunner--this time from Kelly Shoppach--the Sox couldn't move him along until they were on their last out of the inning. Darnell McDonald almost seemed to have a crucial hit, but had his liner stay up just long enough for Josh Hamilton to make a lunging grab in center, and Jason Repko didn't threaten at all with a popup. Mike Aviles would, astonishingly, draw his second walk of the game to move Shoppach into scoring position, but Dustin Pedroia fell behind 0-2 and popped up himself to end the inning.
Rangers 3, Red Sox 2, Mid 5th -- Josh Beckett earned three quick outs in the top of the fifth against some of the best hitters in the game, settling down and perhaps quelling fears that we would be in for another beatdown after his rough fourth.
Rangers 3, Red Sox 2, End 4th -- Derrek Holland throws ten pitches, and the heart of Boston's lineup goes down in order. Once the lefty is out of the game, the Sox will have to deal with some rough platoon splits, so they'll want to get working sooner, rather than later.
Rangers 3, Red Sox 2, Mid 4th -- New rule: if the Sox hit a two-run shot, they must then in turn allow one. To be more specific: they must allow one to Mike Napoli. Why do they pitch to him again? Josh Beckett's fastball just seems a bit flat out there, and with Ian Kinsler just missing one to end the inning, Beckett is perhaps lucky to be heading back to the inning down just one.
Rangers 1, Red Sox 2, End 3rd -- Mike Aviles once again reaches base to lead off the inning, but can't manage the steal this time, being picked off in the act, leading to a quick 1-2-3 for Holland.
Rangers 1, Red Sox 2, Mid 3rd -- A spot of trouble for the Red Sox' Josh Beckett in the third gets the Rangers on the board. While Beckett would strike out the first batter he faced in Brandon Snyder and get ahead of Ian Kinsler 0-2, the Rangers second baseman managed to lay off a number of good pitches and draw a walk. With Elvis Andrus taking him to the wall on a 2-1 cutter, the Rangers could have had the Boston starter in a great deal of trouble, but Darnell McDonald played the ball off the wall with aplomb and fired to second, gunning down Andrus as he tried to stretch it into a double.
The Sox seemed like they were out of it when Josh Hamilton managed only a bouncing ground ball, but with the ball placed well up the middle, Dustin Pedroia could make only the diving stop, throwing to first too late for the out and letting Kinsler come in from third.
Rangers 0, Red Sox 2, End 2nd -- The Red Sox are once again off to an early lead against the Rangers, though we saw last night how tricky that can be to hold on to.
David Ortiz continued to show lefties that he's not fooled by them any longer, leading off the inning by going to the opposite field for a double, bringing Kevin Youkilis up to the plate. It's been a tough start for Youkilis in every way, and yesterday was no different, with the Sox' third baseman going 0-for-4 with a strikeout in every at bat, but today has started very different. Falling behind 2-0, Derek Holland battled back to even the count at 2-2, but his next sinker didn't fool Youk, who sent a moonshot over the Monster in left-center for the two-run shot.
Rangers 0, Red Sox 0, Mid 2nd -- Another inning, and still no runs for the Rangers! Despite a Mike Napoli ground ball bouncing through the left side of the infield, Josh Beckett managed to induce some weak fly balls to get out of the inning unscathed.
Rangers 0, Red Sox 0, End 1st -- A wasted leadoff baserunner for the Red Sox, who saw Mike Aviles reach on a walk and then steal second before an out was recorded. Dustin Pedroia managed to put the ball in play, moving Aviles along to third, but Adrian Gonzalez went swinging at a terrible pitch for a strikeout, and Cody Ross followed suit albeit looking to end the inning.
Rangers 0, Red Sox 0, Mid 1st -- The Red Sox are through the first inning without giving up a run! Huzzah! Josh Beckett struck out leadoff hitter Ian Kinsler to keep his streak of games with at least one strikeout intact, survived a long fly ball from Ian Kinsler, and while Josh Hamilton was able to reach across the plate and provide a good piece of hitting for a single, Adrian Beltre hit a routine ground ball to Kevin Youkilis for the third out.

The Red Sox will try and recover from a disastrous loss on Tuesday night as they face off against Derek Holland and the Texas Rangers Wednesday. First pitch is at 7:10 p.m. EST with broadcasts on NESN and ESPN2.
After surrendering 18 runs last night, the Red Sox pitching staff just has to hope that their bats have cooled down overnight. While Josh Beckett managed eight innings of one-run ball in his last outing, it's hard to imagine the way he pitched against the Rays working against a Texas team hitting everything out of the park.
The weird twist in the lineup tonight comes with lefty Derek Holland on the mound. Despite David Ortiz' excellent numbers against lefties over the past year, Cody Ross has been bumped up to the cleanup spot. Kevin Youkilis, in turn, is bumped down to sixth. Ross has mashed lefties in his career, to be sure, but with a righty relief pitcher on the mound late, the move could prove problematic.

Fenway Park
Partly cloudy. Winds blowing in from left field at 5-10 m.p.h. Game time temperature around 55.
After what's transpired with the Boston Red Sox in the first 12 games of the season, the team would probably be better suited to have their games aired on a sopa opera network rather than a sports one, as Dave Shook writes.
The Red Sox were demolished Tuesday night, surrendering six home runs to a dominant Texas team en route to an 18-3 loss.
Jon Lester got the start, and after escaping trouble in the first inning, suffered through one of the ugliest four-run innings in the history of the game, surrendering a two-run shot to Mike Napoli, loading the bases, and then having two more score on a single that didn't get more than 20 feet down the third base line and a routine fly ball that Cody Ross inexplicably dropped.
Colby Lewis had his own early-game problems as well, having already given up a two-run shot to Dustin Pedroia in the bottom of the first. The Sox would put men on second and third afterward as well, but both were stranded as Ross grounded out.
If there was any hope for Lester to rebound in the third, it was squashed as he proceeded to load the bases before recording an out. Already over 80 pitches and clearly having nothing in the tank, Lester was pulled from the game for Scott Atchison, who wouldn't be able to strand any of the inherited runners, leaving the Sox down 7-2. Still, Atchison would hold down the fort, keeping the Sox alive on some level for a few innings, only giving up another run come the sixth on a solo shot from Michael Young.
The real end for the Sox would come in the eighth. With Mark Melancon in the game, the Rangers proceeded to six men to the plate, record not an out, and hit three home runs. Justin Thomas fared better, but not by that much, surrendering two more runs as he finished out the inning.
Adrian Gonzalez gave the Sox one tiny silver lining when he went deep in the bottom of the eighth, but the Rangers were unwilling to even let the Sox maintain that reduced margin of victory, striking for two off of Vicente Padilla in the ninth.
An Embarrassing Display: There's no two ways about this. The Red Sox were embarrassed Tuesday night, beaten in every aspect of the game to the point where they didn't even deserve to be on the same field, and this at home.
Mark Melancon: A 22.50 HR/9, an ERA approaching 50, and absolutely no indication things are getting better. It's becoming clear that before too long Melancon won't be with the team--the only question is if it will be because he was optioned to Triple-A, or because of a DL trip.
Oh, Bobby: Bobby Valentine could have just quietly let the game run down and left without any greater heat than what normally comes with an 18-3 loss. He didn't do anything wrong tonight--it was the team that sucked, and he had to write something down on the lineup card.
Then came the ninth, and Vicente Padilla--one of the few pitchers who has shown the ability to record outs so far this year--and wasted him in a 15 run game. Just throw Darnell McDonald out there!
The Red Sox and Rangers are just about ready to go in Fenway Park, where Jon Lester will take the mound aiming to turn the strong pitching he's offered to start the year into his first win of the season.
It's going to be a tough one for the Red Sox to be sure. Having just been shut down by an ace in James Shields, the Rangers offer no rest for the weary, bringing Colby Lewis to Fenway looking to do the same.
Given the way this season has gone so far, the Sox have put themselves in a situation where almost every match seems incredibly important, but it really does seem like getting on another losing streak so soon after winning three straight would be a bad move, so winning at least the first game of this series could make the difference in maintaining momentum heading into the series against the Yankees.
We'll keep you up-to-date here as all the action goes down in Fenway.
Rangers 18, Red Sox 3, Final - Over. It's finally over.
Rangers 18, Red Sox 3, Mid 9th - Rather than save Padilla for tomorrow and give Sox fans the unique enjoyment that comes from watching a position player take the mound, Bobby Valentine went to him for the ninth. Padilla then gave up a two-run shot to Mike Napoli.
This is the longest game ever.
Rangers 16, Red Sox 3, End 8th - Hey, Adrian Gonzalez went deep! Everything is better now! Wait, why is Vicente Padilla pitching? Bobby, what is the matter with you?!
Rangers 16, Red Sox 2, Mid 8th - Mark Melancon gave up three homers without an out.
Oh, and then Justin Thomas gave up another homer. And more baserunners. And now the Sox might have to waste Vicente Padilla.
Rangers 8, Red Sox 2, End 7th - More of the same for the Red Sox. 1-2-3, two strikeouts. Just a bad, bad game of baseball they're playing tonight.
Rangers 8, Red Sox 2, Mid 7th - Matt Albers records a 1-2-3 seventh as the Sox just try to fill innings and keep the important part of the pen fresh for Wednesday's game.
Rangers 8, Red Sox 2, End 6th - Ryan Sweeney continues his torrid pace by dropping a double off the bottom of the wall in left, but it's another wasted baserunner for the Red Sox as Cody Ross lines out to Elvis Andrus behind him. A bit of bad luck, but the Sox need more than a two-out rally right now anyways.
Rangers 8, Red Sox 2, Mid 6th - The top of the sixth ends in the blink of an eye, with Atchison needing just five pitches to record three outs. Unfortunately, the one to Michael Young leaves the park, and the Sox are down 8-2.
Rangers 7, Red Sox 2, End 5th - Colby Lewis is just moving through the Sox at this point, retiring the top of the lineup with a mere 12 pitches thanks to a slightly lengthy Adrian Gonzalez at bat.
Rangers 7, Red Sox 2, Mid 5th - Scott Atchison has done some good work just to keep the hole from getting any deeper, working around a Craig Gentry single with some ground ball outs to escape the fifth unharmed. The Sox, unfortunately, show no real sign of fighting back any more, despite their quick start against Colby Lewis.
Rangers 7, Red Sox 2, End 4th - Just when you thought maybe a rally was on, with Cody Ross reaching base and Jason Repko sending a line drive into left field, the Triple-A call-up goes and gets himself thrown out at second. Oh, Repko. Oh, Red Sox.
Rangers 7, Red Sox 2, Mid 4th - Scott Atchison threw a 1-2-3 inning. There were many gasps and expressions of disbelief. Someone may have fainted.
Rangers 7, Red Sox 2, End 3rd - Nothing doing for the Red Sox in the third. Adrian Gonzalez hit a very long out to right, and David Ortiz singled into center, but Kevin Youkilis' day off seems to have cut his revival short, with a swinging strikeout ending the third with the score the same.
Rangers 7, Red Sox 2, Mid 3rd - It gets worse. Jon Lester is now out of the game, having done nothing in the third inning other than load the bases, bringing in Scott Atchison to do his best to get out of it. Kevin Youkilis had a chance to erase a lot of the threat when he got a quick ground ball that should have been two outs, but bungled the scoop and had to dive to third just to record the out there. A sacrifice fly from Elvis Andrus made it 6-2, and Josh Hamilton singled through the infield for another run before Adrian Beltre ended the Sox' misery with a long fly out.
Rangers 4, Red Sox 2, End 2nd - The Sox did not do a great job of picking up their starter after a bad fourth. Jarrod Saltalamacchia at least gave one a ride to right-center, but it stayed in the park for the out. Jason Repko and Mike Aviles didn't do nearly so much, each striking out to send it to the third.
Rangers 4, Red Sox 2, Mid 2nd - Jon Lester just endured about the ugliest possible four-run inning, and it all started, amazingly, with a strikeout to Michael Young.
After the strikeout, Nelson Cruz went ahead and smashed a double into the triangle, and Mike Napoli cashed in by doing what he does best in Fenway: going very, very deep to tie the game.
Finally up against the weak part of the lineup, Jon Lester completely failed to take advantage, walking Yorvit Torrealba and giving up a hit to Craig Gentry behind him. Ian Kinsler would also walk, loading the bases, and that's when the ridiculous stuff started. Elvis Andrus hit the ball all of about 15 feet, knocking a dribbler down the right field line which Jon Lester scooped up, but could not record an out on. A popup seemed like it would keep another run from scoring, but somehow Cody Ross managed to have the ball bounce off his glove, allowing a fourth run in.
The scoring was over for the inning, but that didn't mean Lester was done just yet, as Adrian Beltre worked a 12-pitch at bat ending in an infield single that Dustin Pedroia made a diving stop on to save a run. Only with Michael Young again at the plate did Lester finally record the third out, with Aviles scooping up a ground ball and firing to first to end the inning.
Rangers 0, Red Sox 2, End 1st - Colby Lewis managed to avoid a complete meltdown in the first, but the Red Sox still struck twice early against the Texas ace.
Mike Aviles got things started on the right note by taking an 86 MPH 2-2 fastball and sending it nearly to the wall in left for a leadoff single. Getting ahead 1-0, Dustin Pedroia took it in the same direction, but a little bit further, and much, much higher, depositing the pitch into the first row of seats on the Monster for a two-run shot.
Adrian Gonzalez would keep the attack rolling, singling sharply through the right side of the infield, but David Ortiz and Kevin Youkilis slowed things down with a pair of unproductive outs. Ryan Sweeney just missed making it 4-0 when he planted a ball off the top of the wall in center field, but with Gonzalez running the score stayed the same, and Cody Ross' weak ground ball ended the inning without any further damage.
Rangers 0, Red Sox 0, Mid 1st - Jon Lester is out of some early trouble in the first. After getting ahead of Ian Kinsler 0-2, Lester just missed painting the corner with an excellent cutter, then got taken to right-center field for a single on the 2-2 pitch. He would respond by striking out Elvis Andrus, but had Josh Hamilton move Kinsler to third with a ground ball single to right.
Luckily for Lester, the ground ball that came from the first pitch to old friend Adrian Beltre did not find its way into the outfield, but instead rolled right to Dustin Pedroia, who started the inning-ending double play to help Lester escape damage.

A day after sitting against James Shields--and a day after Bobby Valentine's comments on him incited a fair bit of controversy--Kevin Youkilis is back in the lineup against Colby Lewis and the Texas Rangers.
While Kevin Youkilis was out ostensibly due to a groin injury--and perhaps also due to his bad career numbers against James Shields--the timing was inconvenient, to say the least, with Bobby Valentine's comments on Youkilis not being as "into the game" coming into the spotlight just hours before first pitch. Youkilis' production had been improving heading into Monday, however, so hopefully the day off doesn't stop his momentum.
The Rangers will counter with a lineup which features Mike Napoli batting seventh. It's a scary thought until you realize he's been dropped beneath the good-not-great likes of Michael Young and Nelson Cruz after a slow start, but even then this is one powerhouse bunch. It's not until Yorvit Torrealba in the eighth spot where Lester can perhaps take a breath, and then things start right back up with Ian Kinsler batting leadoff.

There\'s a very real chance the Bucs waive [Revis] before next season. At the very least, it will be a discussion worth having.

Who cares what website I belonged to? I still want to see evidence of this opulent buffet and white gloved treatment this homeless prick was given access toThe lying **CENSORED** still hasn't posted a pic of him and any players since I did with him and Freeman
This one FTWhttp://www.flickr.com/photos/83779800@N07/7671197616He deleted it moments later.
You have no credibility you sleaze bag I'm the one that outed you...remember thatstill waiting for your pics...........
LOL, the dude openly and blatantly lies repeatedly.
He made up a dead girlfriend, using someone he found on the internet, and then told us her husband killed himself when he died of a terminal disease to support his lies. He has lied at every step. He ripped people off and lied about reasons he couldn't pay them back. He should be harassed every time he posts so other people don't get unknowingly get ripped off by him. Also, he is super creepy.
Dunno why he'd remove that post honestly. *shrugs*
Link...? Same deal that I offered Binky, Biggs, and any other when I basically call BS...Show me the like I lied in
I take no offense to anyone who has a differing opinion. I don't even take offense to members calling him out legitimately for wronging them. However I take offense to the mob like mentally. Hell, I don't even take offense to those who've had no dealings with him but offered up what they think and feel about the situation and the person behind the keyboard.If he owes people money than those people should be contacting him via PM and deal with him in the best way they see fit. Its the consistent excessive non-stop bashing in numerous threads that just sticks in by crawl. Most know I very rarely talk about anything other than football - this is the reason I frequent the forums - I find it annoying having to dredge through the trash - just to locate a suitable football topic.
Holy Christ! Look how crazy this **CENSORED** is. Owe wants to write articles, so he makes fake ones and posts them. He doesn't just post them under his BucsFTW account. In order to make people think they are real articles Owe creates a fake Michael72314-91238 account, because that dude posts a bunch of articles all day. So I start reading one of those threads. Just start reading at post #63. What a crazy. crazy man.http://www.pewterreport.com/Boards/index.php/topic,1296468.0.htmlPost #65 Owe (posting as micheal89156) says that he had to create the account because his boss (what boss?!) wanted him to. Dafuq?!Post #70 He posts with his BucsFTW account acting like he doesn't know anything about the micheal89156 account and also credits someone with noticing that it was spelled different....even though he created the account. He then goes on to bet that whoever created and is posting as the micheal89156 (himself) as also the author of the fake articles (also himself). I like how he was willing to bet "a cool grand" because he's so rich and all.Post #73 More just craziness.It's like he's becoming more and more of a crazy person.
Quote from: BucsFTW on August 06, 2012, 04:09:58 AMLink...?

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK -- State health officials say all Oklahomans who want to reduce their risk of H1N1 infection are now eligible to receive H1N1 influenza vaccine.
In a news release Tuesday morning, the OSDH says while vaccine supplies remain limited, demand from priority groups has dipped to a point where all Oklahomans can begin to receive vaccine.
"While we continue to emphasize the importance of vaccination for the priority groups, especially children and pregnant women, we are going to begin to vaccinate the general population today," said State Epidemiologist Dr. Kristy Bradley. "Vaccination continues to be the best way to protect yourself from the H1N1 flu and slow the spread of this pandemic. H1N1 influenza activity has been widespread in Oklahoma since early September and even though statewide monitoring has recently shown a decline in influenza-linked hospitalizations, this virus is expected to circulate throughout the winter months. The possibility also exists that another surge of H1N1 flu may follow the current one."
Since September 1, 890 Oklahomans have been hospitalized due to complications from influenza and 27 persons have died.
11/12/2009 Related story: Twenty-Seven Oklahomans Have Died From The H1N1 Virus
The Oklahoma State Department of Health says 90 percent of the H1N1-related deaths have been persons less than 65 years old.
This contrasts significantly with seasonal flu which tends to cause the greatest proportion of deaths among persons older than 65 years.
The best protection against getting the flu is to receive both the vaccine for H1N1 flu and seasonal flu.
Oklahomans seeking the H1N1 vaccine are encouraged to check with their physician's office or county health department.
The Oklahoma State Department of Health expects an additional 90,000 doses of the H1N1 vaccine to be delivered to the state this week.
The doses include both nasal spray and injectable vaccines.
For more information about the availability of H1N1 influenza vaccine in your area, call your local county health department or visit www.health.ok.gov.
The Oklahoma State Department of Health toll-free H1N1 hotline is 1-866-278-7134.

Expeditionary Learning is a model for comprehensive school reform for elementary, middle, and high schools that emphasizes high achievement through active learning, character growth, and teamwork. Expeditionary Learning emphasizes five core practices within its schools:
Expeditionary Learning achieves success in these Core Practice areas by providing schools with an extensive professional development program. Over a multi-year period, school faculties and administrators are offered a coherent, demanding, and highly regarded program of professional development to implement the model and to realize significant improvement in student learning and character development.
How many schools are using Expeditionary Learning?
What are the Results?
"There is a sense of moral purpose to the design that is beyond academic success. There is a sense of citizenship, something closer to a world view, a shared sense of our place in the world and the responsibilities that come with that. That is really powerful, and it's something that is largely absent today."

My little boy Harry has been dragged around the shops with me since he was about 3 weeks old. Consequently, he rather loves sitting in the big supermarket trolley being Daddy's trolley helper when we do our weekly shop. So when it came to thinking of things for Father Christmas to bring Harry, we couldn't quite resist buying him this little trolley!
You might think it isn't easy to transport the trolley, especially if you have a small car and it's full up with lots of things, or you don't have much storage space. Well, it actually is. The basket actually lifts off of the base frame with a sharp tug, and then turns upside down so the frame sits inside the basket with the wheels sticking up. This reduces its size by about 50%, handy for storing it away in a cupboard or in your car boot. To put back together, just line up the pegs on the base frame and the holes in the basket and push together until there is a loud click. Easy peasy!
We got our trolley from Mothercare, for the bargain price of £5.99. You can also buy it from the Mothercare website if your local store does not stock, although you have to pay a delivery charge of £4.95. It is advertised as being suitable for children aged over 2 years, but Harry is 21 months and fine with it, and I would have been happy letting him play with this once he was walking steadily at about 14 months.

Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police are investigating
the crash of a car that appeared to be speeding away from an officer who was
not following him.
Baheem Frazier, 20, of the 600 block of W 39th
St., was transported to Memorial University Medical Center after the 11:24 p.m.
Sunday crash at Bull and 39th streets and then arrested. He has been charged
with failure to stop at a stop sign, reckless driving, eluding police officers
and driving without a license.
A patrol officer with the Central Precinct
first attempted to stop the red Mazda for running a stop sign near Frazier's
residence when the driver sped away. The officer decided to discontinue the
traffic stop and turned away.
The Mazda continued to speed east on W 39th
St., running stop signs at each of the intersections, until it crashed into a
utility pole and a fire hydrant on the east side of Bull St. and into a parked
pickup truck.
Due to the force of the crash, the bottom of
the utility pole was removed, leaving the top half dangling from the
powerlines, the hydrant was knocked away from its piping, and the Mazda ended
up being positioned vertically on its front end against the pickup. The pickup
was also knocked into a car parked in front of it.
Authorities shut down the intersection for
more than seven hours as utility crews replaced the pole and hydrant.
Police are continuing to investigate.

Universal Studios Hollywood has three up-sells for Halloween Horror Nights.
The big ticket item is the VIP Experience, which is being produced by John Murdy, creative director of the rest of Halloween Horror Nights.
In an interview at a press event, Murdy said this is the first time he is producing the VIP tour as well. But this year it is tied into the film series "Insidious," and he working with its creators.
The VIP tour, called "Insidious Experiment," uses characters from the films as a framing device for what a press release describes as a "mind-bending paranormal investigation of restricted movie production backlot locations."
Guests on the VIP tour will get private trolley and a tour guide to escort them through the backlot.
"This year, that means the metro sets with the two mazes downstairs and the Terror Tram," said Murdy, referring to the "Walking Dead" maze and scare zone, which are on restricted areas of the backlot, and the Black Sabbath maze on a sound stage.
The tour begins with a buffet dinner that includes two alcoholic drinks — wine or beer — in the "VIP Horror Lounge."
"The food is actually really good, because I broke in their a lot last year and stole their food!" Murdy said.
Perks also include valet parking.
The cost is $209-$239, depending on the night of the visit.
Front of line passes include one visit to each maze and attraction plus a special entrance to the park. The cost is $119 or $139.
Universal also offers a day/night combo that allows guests to visit the park in the daytime and re-enter on the same date for Halloween Horror Nights. The cost is $119-$139.

A woman has been sentenced to nine months in jail in a home invasion last year in Michigan where $2 in change was taken.
The Hillsdale Daily News reports 20-year-old Karlissa Hawkins of Montgomery was sentenced Monday in Hillsdale County Circuit Court on one count of attempted second-degree home invasion after earlier pleading guilty to the charge.
Hawkins apologized prior to sentencing. She also was ordered to pay nearly $900 in costs and fines as well as $845 in restitution.
Hawkins earlier told the court that she and another woman broke into an apartment. Her co-defendant in the case, who also got jail time, said they couldn't find any substantial amount of money and Hawkins eventually took $2 in change, which she used for gas money.

While it may be early in the year, after listening to "Fortress" nonstop for the last two weeks, I think I can safely say that this will end up in my top three for the year. It's not very often that an album comes along, that is so good that it shatters all preconceptions that you had about a particular genre and creates its own.This becomes clear in the first 60 seconds of "Bloodmeat". Everything that is thrown into the blender really would look like a mess on paper, but it all comes through so clear and perfect. Think of the Mars Volta with Coheed and Cambria, rocking out with Iron Maiden and Dream Theater, all conducted by Frank Zappa with his trademark sense of humor surfacing here and there. There's also a strong pop sensibility that runs throughout the whole album that lets you know these guys haven't forgotten that this is indeed a rock album. It may be proggy and dense, but never to the point where it is completely impenetrable. Vocals range from clean, nasal, screaming and grunting. Very diverse, but every style is right for the part. And the guitars…my god, the guitars.
While describing an album that you're really excited about, it's hard not to throw around adjectives like "amazing" and "mind-blowing", and "stunning", but after one listen, I think you'll agree with me. The musicianship is top-notch, to say the least. The song structures are other-worldly. There is not one wasted note in the whole mix. It also has to be said that it never sounds the same twice.
Without any reservation whatsoever, it gets a 10/10 from me. Ignore the samples here and just get the album. If you're already here looking and you've managed to get all the way through my review, then it's almost a guarantee that you've found your album. Enjoy.

I. Introduction
The 1920s witnessed a boom in consumerism, an explosion in artistic expression, and a growth in leisure time. This change came at the expense of many people and without regard for future problems.
II. Big Business Triumphant
A. Business Consolidation and Lobbying
The consolidation movement that began in the late nineteenth century continued into the 1920s. Business and professional associations began to engage in "the new lobbying."
B. Fate of Organized Labor
Public opinion continued to be generally hostile toward unions. Some large corporations attempted to counter the appeal of union through what is known as welfare capitalism.
III. Politics and Government
A. Harding Administration
Harding began his presidency as a reformer.
B. Teapot Dome
Scandals and corruption plagued the Harding administration.
C. Coolidge Prosperity
Calvin Coolidge, aided by Andrew Mellon, helped private enterprise, a stance that helped him win election in 1924.
D. State and Local Reform
Interest in reform faded in the 1920s, but some innovations occurred on the state and local levels.
E. Indian Affairs
During the 1920s, the government conferred citizenship on all Indians and restructured the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
F. Women and Politics
After attaining suffrage, many women continued to maintain their own organizations through which they engaged in pressure-group politics. Most women, like most men, did not vote.
IV. Materialism Unbound
A. Expansion of Consumer Society
Technological advances, modern marketing, and higher wages helped increase the number of consumers.
B. Effects of the Automobile
Mass production and competition forced automobile prices down. Cars brought more independence, spurred road building, and increased oil consumption.
C. Advertising
Advertising expenditures rose dramatically in the 1920s.
D. Radio
As most Americans acquired a radio, it became an influential advertising and entertainment medium.
V. Cities, Migrants, and Suburbs
A. Farm-to-City Migration
By the 1920s, over half the people of the United States lived in urban areas. Industrial jobs lured thousands of migrants to the cities. African Americans made up a significant percentage of those moving to urban areas.
B. Marcus Garvey
A Jamaican immigrant, Marcus Garvey headed the Universal Negro Improvement Association, which called for black separatism, racial pride, and equal rights.
C. Mexican and Puerto Rican Immigrants
During the 1920s, large numbers of immigrants from Mexico and Puerto Rico entered the United States.
D. Growth of the Suburbs
Advances in transportation allowed many people to flock to the suburbs to escape the crowded cities.
VI. New Rhythms of Everyday Life
A. Family Time
As birth rates declined, divorce rates rose, and life expectancy increased, adult Americans devoted less time to raising children.
B. Household Management
Ready?made clothes, processed food, and mass?produced furniture meant Americans could spend more time on leisure activities, but housewives still worked hard.
C. Nutrition
An emphasis on nutrition led to better diets. That fact coupled with improved sanitation led to increased life expectancy.
D. Older Americans and Retirement
Americans enjoyed improved health in the 1920s, leading to increased numbers of retirees and the need for some minimal assistance for poor elderly people.
E. Social Values
A loosening of social values in the 1920s occurred as traditional ideas of proper behavior came under criticism.
F. Employment for Women
Millions of women continued to move into the work force after World War I, despite gender discrimination.
G. Jobs for Minority Women
The percentage of minority women who worked for pay was double that of white women.
E. The New Woman
Women experimented with new images of femininity, such as the "flapper" look. These changes marked a sharp break with the restraint of the nineteenth century.
F. Gay and Lesbian Culture
An underground homosexual culture began to expand in some cities, despite general intolerance from the rest of society.
VII. Lines of Defense
A. Ku Klux Klan
The Ku Klux Klan revived in 1915 to ensure the survival of "Native, white, Protestant supremacy."
B. Immigration Quotas
Congress responded to nativist pressure and set quotas that prevented large numbers of eastern and southern European immigrants from entering the country.
C. Sacco and Vanzetti Case
Antiforeign sentiment characterized the arrest, trial, and execution of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti.
D. Fundamentalism
Many Americans turned to fundamentalist religious beliefs in reaction to what they perceived to be the skepticism and materialism of American society.
E. Scopes Trial
In 1925, fundamentalism clashed with science when John Scopes stood trial for teaching evolution.
F. Revivalism
Through the use of modern advertising techniques, revivalist preachers attracted more followers.
VIII. The Age of Play
A. Movies
Movies became a premier American medium, and many films, especially comedies, included social commentary.
B. Sports Heroes
Spectator sports boomed. People began to elevate sports personalities to heroic status.
C. Movie Stars
Movie stars satisfied America's yearning for romance and adventure.
D. Prohibition
Prohibition proved successful at first, but bootleggers soon made the illicit liquor industry into a thriving business in the 1920s.
E. Al Capone
Al Capone met the demand for liquor, gambling, and prostitutes, becoming the best-known gangster of the era.
IX. Cultural Currents
A. Literature of Alienation
Disillusioned writers of the 1920s, known as the "Lost Generation," indicted modern American society.
B. Harlem Renaissance
Black artists asserted pride in their African heritage. Harlem became the Mecca for many African Americans.
C. Jazz
Jazz, which grew out of the urban experience of African Americans and which blurred the line between composer and performer, influenced a generation of artists.
D. Experiments in Art and Music
Innovations abounded in art, music, and architecture, making the 1920s one of the most creative eras in American history.
X. The Election of 1928, and the End of the New Era
A. Herbert Hoover
Hoover advocated the old values of hard work along with the new ideas of associationalism.
B. Al Smith
The Democrats nominated New York Governor Al Smith in 1928. A Catholic and a second?generation immigrant, he appealed to urban ethnic groups.
C. Hoover's Administration
Having won the election, Hoover began his term with high hopes and with emphasis on personal responsibility.
D. Stock Market Crash
The stock market crash in 1929 led to further dumping of stock. Hoover believed the economy would stabilize, but the crash instead helped begin a devastating depression.
E. Declining Demand
Overproduction prevented economic expansion, forcing producers to fire workers, which exacerbated problems.
F. Corporate Debt
Oligopolies dominated American industry, and once the pyramids started to fail, corporate structures collapsed.
G. Speculation on the Stock Market
Widespread speculation based on margin buying characterized the bull market. When the market crashed brokers called in loans, adding to the panic.
H. International Economic Troubles
International economic conditions affected Americans, and crises abroad aggravated the deepening depression.
I. Drawbacks of Federal Policies
The government bears some responsibility for the crisis because it failed to regulate or restrict wild speculation.

The Department of Water Resources reported in a press release that manual and electronic readings recorded the snowpack's statewide water content at about 20 percent of average for this time of year. That is a mere 7 percent of the average April 1 measurement, when the snowpack normally is at its peak before melting into streams and reservoirs to provide a third of the water used by California's cities and farms.
The last time California's statewide snowpack was this dry was in 2012 when it also was 20 percent of the historical average. The readings today and in 2012 are the driest on record.
But while there may be reasons for panic up and down the state, Solano County doesn't need to worry, according to Solano County Water Agency General Manager David Okita.
"In Solano County, that's not the case," he said of Lake Berryessa's robust supply of water. He said the state provides 5 percent of the water to Solano County residents, the rest is made up from the water in the lake.
While the lake levels are decreasing, it's still 69 percent full.
There is some long term concern that the lake won't get the much needed rain, but Okita said "there is a lot of the rainy season left."
Still, snow pack would be beneficial for the state's water supply.
Friday's electronic readings, according to the Department of Water Resources, indicate that water content in the northern mountains is 11 percent of normal for the date and 4 percent of the April 1 average. Electronic readings in the central Sierra show 21 percent of normal for the date and 8 percent of the April 1 average. The numbers for the southern Sierra are 30 percent of average for the date and 10 percent of the April 1 average.
In addition to the sparse snowpack, many areas of California ended calendar year 2013 with the lowest rainfall amounts on record. Normally one of California's wettest spots with an average annual rainfall of nearly 100 inches, Gasquet Ranger Station in Del Norte County ended the year with only 43.46 inches. Sacramento, which normally gets about 18 inches, ended up with 5.74 inches of precipitation. And downtown Los Angeles, which since 1906 has averaged 14.74 inches of rain, ended the year with 3.4 inches, beating the previous low of 4.08 inches recorded in 1953.
DWR and cooperating agencies conduct manual snow surveys around the first of the month from January to May. The manual measurements supplement and check the accuracy of real-time electronic readings.
"While we hope conditions improve, we are fully mobilized to streamline water transfers and take every action possible to ease the effects of dry weather on farms, homes and businesses as we face a possible third consecutive dry year," said DWR Director Mark Cowin. "And every Californian can help by making water conservation a daily habit."

An Horry County English teacher has been placed on administrative leave after being charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor earlier this week, officials say.
Courtney Ruth Martin, age 26, of Aynor is a teacher at Conway High School, school officials said.
Martin was charged and jailed on Tuesday, according to the J. Reuben Long Detention Center.
"Following and investigation it was determined that between August 23, 2012 and October 29, 2013 Martin engaged in inappropriate behavior with one of her students, while employed as a teacher at Conway High School," a press release from Conway Police said.
The investigation began when a caller to a tip line told authorities a student and Martin were having a relationship, according to a Conway Police report.
When police questioned both parties, they both denied any relationship, but the male student later admitted to it, police said.
"He further advised that he would go into her classroom during lunch or after school and they would hug, kiss and talk about their relationship," police said.
Martin, who has been with the school system since July 2010, is on paid administrative leave, said Teal Britton, school system spokesperson.
Martin was released from jail on a $5,000 bond, according to the detention center website.

The Texas Rangers are currently planning on keeping Mitch Moreland and using him around the field against right handed pitchers, reports Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports. However, he could be moved if the Rangers make another move or receive a good offer.
There had been speculation that Moreland would be available in trade after the Rangers acquired first baseman Prince Fielder from the Detroit Tigers last week. Moreland had been the team's primary first baseman in 2013 and hit a career-high 23 home runs. Over his last three major league seasons, he has hit .253/.312/.437. In his career, Moreland has posted a 752 OPS against right-handed pitching compared to a 701 OPS against lefties.
Moreland has played some outfield over his career as well, and could be used in one of the corners. The Rangers are looking to upgrade their outfield in the offseason with Craig Gentry, Leonys Martin and Alex Rios currently penciled in as the starters. Nelson Cruz is a free agent and may not return to Texas in 2014. The Rangers have been one team looking at Carlos Beltran in free agency and are also eyeing Shin-Soo Choo and, possibly, Jacoby Ellsbury.
The Rays had been mentioned as one possible trade partner for Moreland. They will probably lose 2013 first baseman James Loney to free agency, leaving Sean Rodriguez penciled in at the position. In addition, both the Pirates and Mets have allegedly looked into him and teams like the Brewers and Astros could use a first baseman.
For now, Moreland appears set to enter as a hybrid role for the Rangers, who do not have a clear option to play at designated hitter, either. However, if they sign a new outfielder, Moreland could be further dangled in trade talks as a way to improve other positions.

Dr. Sabra Slaughter has been an MUSC patient two times within the past 11 years.
The first prostate cancer diagnosis was in 2002 and the cancer cells came back in 2012.
"It wasn't cell activity that had metastasize or would take life away but it was alive." Dr Slaughter said.
Dr. Slaughter said a cancer diagnosis is frightening to men because it means fighting a battle you are not guaranteed to win." Dr Slaughter said.
"There are macho notions men have that I can overcome this." Dr Slaughter said.
Dr. Slaughter was not sick when his cancer was discovered. In fact, it was caught as he underwent an annual prostate specific antigen test or p-s-a , which measures the blood level of a protein produced by the prostate gland. Dr. Slaughter's PSA was elevated.
Risk factors for prostate cancer include family history, race and possibly diet.
Men who have had a father or brother with prostate cancer have a greater chance of developing prostate cancer.
Asian and native American men have the lowest rates of developing prostate cancer.
Dr. Demetri Papadopolus of Mt Pleasant says African American men have the highest rate.
"Certainly African American men should be screened regularly" Dr Slaughter said.
Dr. Slaughter said he feels great and is excited to remind other men about the power of prevention.
"Had I not been seeing the doc they not have track record the blip or change in my Pisa to know something is going on here."
