That was what Mike Tomlin said so famously after beating the Cardinals in the Super Bowl, and that's the same situation now. But the past thirty days have help put the team's strengths and weaknesses in sharper focus. Let's all take a look at what we've seen, and how it might impact at the Player Selection Meeting or whatever they call it......
1) We've been pleasantly surprised by the offensive line. Troy Aikman - during the Super Bowl broadcast - called Maurkice Pouncey "the best rookie lineman I've ever seen." (Homer called Pouncey exactly that a month ago.) Pouncey went down against the Jets, and Legursky filled in brilliantly. We have seen that Legursky certainly can be counted on as a fill-in, and may be good enough to start at guard. We've also seen that the Hotel was operating well at the end of the year. He's a road grader, and has gas left in the tank. With Starks and Colon hopefully coming back, the OL should be better and surely much deeper than this year. As much as we would all love to see the Pouncey twins playing alongside each other, the chances of taking Mike with pick #31 seem diminished because of more pressing needs in the DB. That doesn't mean the FO shouldn't try to trade up in round two or package some draft picks (and/or players) to get MikeP after they address the DB needs.
2) Our fears and concerns about the defensive backfield have been confirmed. The hard truth is that Ike Taylor is your only worry-free starter. He has the speed and cover skills to be a shut-down corner. And while Troy Polamalu is deservedly DPOY, he has a history of injury, did not play the last quarter of the season at 100%, and his physical style makes his susceptible to even more injuries in the future. Speed is his currency, and Troy at 85% is a huge dropoff from a healthy Troy. He needs a quality back-up, and Ryan Mundy has shown he can do the job.
Ryan Clark is a great hitter, and he's an explosive tackler and great against the run. But he's been around for a while, and has left a lot of himself on the field - including his spleen. He lacks great closing speed. BMAC was falling apart physically during the last part of the season, with all kinds of hip and leg ailments. His heart was stout, but the wheels were falling off. Gay was coached up into a solid nickel back in the regular season, but his cover skills were sorely tested by Rogers. At times in the early season, it looked like Anthony Madison would have a hard time covering a corpse with a white bedsheet, but he played better in the playoffs. Lewis is said to have a lot of raw skill, and there's been a lot of buzz about Butler, but we saw little of either during the season.
2a) What the playoffs confirmed is that the Steelers have two great defensive backs, and a big drop-off after that. LeBeau has been able to neutralize that weakness by throwing different looks at the quarterback, dropping linebackers into coverage, and employing the zone blitz. But elite quarterbacks like Rodgers and Brady - when they get enough time - can pick it all apart. The Steelers number one need seems to be a shutdown cornerback. They also need another safety, although Coach Dad could probably tell us if Butler or Lewis can fill that bill.
3) The Steelers are well-stocked at linebacker. Their backups could start on many teams. The only glaring need is the need to resign Woodley and make sure PotDog sticks around for another year.
4) The Steelers are well-stocked at wide receiver. Their backups could start on many teams. The only glaring need is to make sure Ward plays another year.
5) The Steelers are well-stocked at running back. Their backup has superhuman powers. The major need to is to continue the development of Redman and Dwyer and to determine if MeMo is still the best choice for the remaining running back spot. Based on what he did in the playoffs and SB, he is until someone beats him out for the job.
6) The Steelers are well-stocked at starting quarterback. Their backups had a 3-1 record to start the season, and that included 2-1 by the fourth stringer. There is actually the need to upgrade behind Ben, but that might be best addressed by a free agent signing. It's often better to have a veteran back-up to throw in there when your starter goes down. Dixon's history of leg injuries means you should have somebody else ready, just in case. Lefty and Batch are high quality guys with obvious strengths (and weaknesses). You always look to upgrade, but the key to that is never underestimate what you already have.
7) The Steelers are woefully short in Tight Ends, but only in the mind of Bruce Arians. Miller is all-world. Johnson has been an excellent blocker and role player. Spaeth's blocking his actually improved, especially downfield (I just threw up in my mouth as I wrote that), and he is tall enough to catch Ben's red zone alley-oopers, but we remember that Spaeth failed twice in the final seconds against the Jets in the regular season.
8) The Steelers are well-stocked in the defensive line, with the emergence of Ziggy Hood in the late season and the playoffs. The rest of the DL is on the wrong side of 30, so this is another one of those wonderful situations where they can draft someone and give him at least a year to develop. That's what they did with Timmons and with Ziggy. Smith will probably be back next year, and the other guys will be pushed by Steve McLendon. And when Smitty or Snack or Hokey retire, this year's draft choice will be groomed and ready.
9) Agree to and sign the damned CBA! Otherwise, this is just a frivolous exercise.
So, what have we learned in the past 30 days about draft needs? First, that the OL may be better next year than we thought because of the play of the Big Legursky and Flo. Second, that the DL may be better next year than we thought because of the emergence of Hood. And third, that the DB is the one area that needs the most upgrading.
We have confirmed that the team is as deep as any in the NFL, and - while every draft choice is valuable - the Steelers are in the envious position of being able to package a couple of picks to draft up. Many teams need quantity to fill out their rosters. The Steelers just had (arguably) their best draft in 35 years, and their needs are more limited.
Your thoughts? What have we learned (or confirmed)? Have the Steelers' needs changed or become more clearly in focus?

BATON ROUGE – Malorie Pardo handed out 46 assists and sparked the LSU volleyball team to a season's best .359 team hitting percentage as the Tigers dismissed South Carolina [29-27, 25-23, 25-12] Sunday at the Maravich Center.
LSU (7-10, 3-5 SEC) put its two-match losing skid in the rear view mirror and avenged a five-set loss to South Carolina (13-6, 2-6 SEC) from earlier this season.
"It was key that we had to fight through for this win," head coach Fran Flory said. "The confidence level that comes from this type of win can certainly be a jumpstart. We decided this was a restart to the season after the Georgia match. We acted like this was the first match of our season and we're going to see what we can accomplish. We still feel like we have a lot to accomplish in this season."
Offensively, the trio of Helen Boyle, Desiree Elliott and Madie Jones combined for 44 of LSU's 53 kills for the match. The 46 helpers for Pardo was a SEC-best during a three-set match in conference play this season.
Jones cranked 15 kills on 29 errorless swings en route a .517 hitting clip, while Elliott fired in 14 spikes on a crisp .407 attacking ratio and added a match-leading six blocks. Boyle tacked on 15 kills and 13 digs to secure her fifth double-double in her last six outings. Cati Leak made the most of her opportunities and powered home five kills on 11 swings for a .455 hitting percentage. She also collected 14 digs.
"I think that we redefined ourselves," Flory said. "We did a better job during the latter part of this week and figured out how to use our personnel a little better. The balance we had with Cati Leak was a little more efficient even though she had a little less swings. She was involved in the offense which provided open opportunities for our big three of Helen Boyle, Desiree Elliott and Madie Jones."
LSU's back row defense racked up 64-46 advantage in digs and had four players garner double figure scoops. Meghan Mannari returned to the libero role and sprawled out for a match-high 18 digs, while Sam Delahoussaye chipped in 13 scoops.
South Carolina was led by Juliette Thévenin's 18 kills and Taylor Bruns' 34 assists. Thévenin and Paige Wheeler corralled 12 digs apiece, while Bethanie Thomas popped 10 kills for the Gamecocks.
"I think the two days off on Thursday and Friday really helped us physically and mentally because we were tired," Mannari said. "We just needed a break. Those two days off gave us a momentum change and a mentality change. It gave us time to gain our intensity back. We wanted to come on the court and restart a whole new season with today's match. I think we did a good job of doing just that."
The first set featured 20 ties and 12 lead changes with neither going ahead by more than a two-point margin. South Carolina held the first two set point chances at 24-23 and 25-24. However, the Tigers used kills from Pardo and Jones to draw even. LSU fought off a third set point down 27-26 on Jones' seventh spike of the stanza. Thévenin followed with a USC hitting error and Boyle delivered the deciding kill to lift LSU to the 29-27 dramatic victory.
South Carolina was poised to even the match at a set apiece. The Gamecocks built a 17-10 advantage after a Bruins kills. However, LSU ripped off 12 of the next 13 points to turn the tables and snatch a 22-18 lead. Elliott powered home four of her seven kills in the set, while Boyle added three kills to ignite the run. Down 23-19, South Carolina pieced together a final flurry with three Thévenin kills coupled with a Pardo ball handling error to knot the tally at 23-23. LSU regrouped and Jones provided back-to-back kills to vault the Tigers to the 25-23 comeback win.
LSU used that momentum and raced out to a 15-5 lead to start the third set. The Tigers never looked back and led wire-to-wire. Boyle powered home three consecutive kills, while Elliott banged home the deciding spike during the 25-12 rout. LSU also converted on 9-of-13 in the sideout department.
"That [second] set was a set of runs," Flory said. "We seized that momentum and maintained it. The good thing for us, though, is that when we take those opportunities, we've given them away with a serving error and killed our own runs. Once you get a team on their heels and keep applying pressure, it's awfully hard for them to make a play against you."
For the second straight week, LSU will be showcased on ESPNU's Wednesday Night Volleyball when the Tigers meet preseason SEC favorite Tennessee. First serve is slated for 7 p.m., and live stats will be available inside the Geaux Zone on LSUsports.net/live.
Admission to all 2012 home matches at the Maravich Center is free compliments of the Advocate's "Geaux Free" program. At every home match, LSU will be collecting pet supplies at the fan zone as part of its "PAWS in the PMAC" campaign to benefit the Capital Area Animal Welfare Society.

News: The Game Offers Summer Challenge, "Ain't A N*gga That's Gonna Out-Mixtape Me"
Thursday, Jun 11, 2009 5:20PM
Black Wall Street leader The Game recently updated fans on the process of his forthcoming The R.E.D. Album and challenged rappers to a weekly mixtape stand-off this summer.
The West Coast rapper has promised to heat up the next few months with a new mixtape each week.
The Game is in L.A. right now, working on The R.E.D. Album with Cool & Dre. Although a release date has not been set, The Game will release unofficial projects this summer. "This summer, it ain't a n*gga that's gonna out-mixtape me," Game said in an interview. "I'm dropping a mixtape every week. It ain't gonna be like no bullsh*t mixtape sh*t. I'm dropping mixtapes that sound better than people's albums. The first one is gonna be the Bloody Thumb with the red thumb print on the front." (MTV)
Aside from the mixtapes, Game will also make his first United Kingdom performance since last December this summer.
The Game returns to the UK with three live dates confirmed across the country. His albums have sold a total of half a million In the UK, and netted him worldwide sales of seven million. The Game toured the UK last year and returns for the following shows: Tuesday, July 14 O2 Academy, Leeds. Wednesday July 15 O2 Academy, Liverpool. Thursday, July 16 O2 Academy, Bristol. Tickets are priced and available beginning Friday (May 22). (eGigs)
Prior to the upcoming tour, Game hit the road earlier this year to promote his third album.
He has assembled a coast-to-coast US trek to support his latest effort, LAX. The club/theater outing is scheduled to visit nearly 30 cities, starting with several California performances in mid-February. Beginning Feb. 18 and concluding Mar. 29, stops include Los Angeles, Phoenix, Sacramento, Portland, Seattle, Boise, Denver, Tulsa, Dallas, Houston, New Orleans, New Haven, Providence, Norfolk, New York and more. (Live Daily)
With the new album on the way reportedly beef-free, Game previously spoke on moving past his differences with 50 Cent.
"I ain't talked to 50 in like three, four years," he said in an on-street interview earlier this year. "I don't know man, let homie get his money. He got his G-Unit sh*ts I be hearing in the club sometimes. Those la-di da-di sh*ts. The b*tches be dancing, the n*ggas be partying, if the beat is hot I'll dance. 50, get your money n*gga, I ain't hating...I got ThisIzGame, everything that n*gga do I'm on that n*gga head. Whatever he do, he can come with 50RunsTheWorld I'm coming out with GameRunsTheWorld. I'm on that n*gga's a** man." (Smack DVD)
No information has been announced for the forthcoming mixtape and album release dates.

So...what exactly is the point of this thread?
Do you believe in God Mr. Buckaroo?
I don't fear death, death fears me.
This is a good thread because it's the number one fear of human beings. It's anunknown.I don't feel afraid of dying but it's easy to say that when I'm not facing death. I don'twant to leave here because I enjoy it too much. But mostly, I would hate to putpeople through the grief of having to deal with the loss of a loved one. My wifehad to go through that with her first husband.I think there is an afterlife but I cannot be sure until I have an out of body experienceor a near death experience. Even then, it's not proof. There is a drug (ketamine) thatmimics the near death experience to a T when injected IV. And there are otherways to mimic it with EM. So...If I could have an OBE and find out something (during the OBE) I couldn't have possibly known about through normal means, that might change my Think to a Believe.Are we more than a physical body? I think so. Precognition proves it. And I have hada few precognitive events in my life.

BLOOMINGTON, Ill -- At 6 am on Wednesday, the FBI, State's Attorney's office and the Bloomington and Normal Police Department raided locations throughout the area.
Two brothers, Marcus and Mathew Sullivan are believed to be the leaders of the trafficking organization that has been supplying drugs to Bloomington and Normal since 2001.
They are being charged with one count of conspiracy to distribute and possess with the intent to distribute at least 280 grams of crack cocaine.
Authorities arrested ten others in connection with the drug trafficking network.
Three more individuals are still being sought.
Police can not determine where the drugs are coming from at this time.
"Now's the time for the community to try and pull itself together and try to make sure that if there are any small dealers operating that they stay small, get identified, and stop," said U.S. Attorney, Jim Lewis.
Conspiracy to distribute and possess with the intent to distribute crack cocaine carries a minimum penalty of ten years to life in prison.
The defendants are scheduled to appear in federal court tomorrow afternoon in Peoria.

Time Out New York High Line Guide: May 3–9, 2007
The High Line
What was, is and will be
WHERE IS IT? The 30-foot-high trestle spans the neighborhoods of the Meatpacking District, Chelsea,and the Javits Convention Center area, some 22 blocks,from Gansevoort St up to 34th St along Tenth and Eleventh Aves.
WHAT'S IT GOING TO BE? A public park that consists of an elevated greenway with walking paths
WHEN'S IT GOING TO BE DONE? it's already under construction; large portions should be completed in 2008, with the rest finished in 2009
Like its present, New York's past is constantly in flux. A new shop opens, buildings are torn down, and some new aspect of Gotham's history you didn't know existed is unearthed. One of the best second acts in New York history is being played out right now: the repurposing of the High Line. The rusting narrow strip of elevated railroad runs some 22 blocks, from Gansevoort Street in the Meatpacking District on to 34th Street, and hasn't seen traffic since 1980. But thanks to a whole lot of public activism and the energy of urban renewalists like Friends of the High Line, by 2008 the trestle will become a long, snaking strip of public park. Bloomberg's endorsed it, and the jackhammers are already running; urban renewal is underway—in this case, 30 feet off the ground.
Parkland is not a bad fate for a structure that was originally built to save Tenth Avenue from its old reputation as "Death Avenue." Back in the 19th century, freight-bearing trains competed with horses, carts and pedestrians for supremacy of the thoroughfare, with the latter group the usual victims. (One such accident figured prominently in John Dos Passos's novel Manhattan Transfer.) The city solved the situation by hoisting the tracks off the street and onto an overhead trestle: a "high line" running trains directly by or through factories and warehouses. But after World War II, when trucking replaced trains, the line fell into disuse. A southern chunk was torn away beginning in the '60s, and the 1980s saw the business world agitate to yank the whole obsolete thing down. The work of railroad enthusiast Peter Obletz in the 1980s and later, in 1999, Friends of the High Line, founded by Joshua David and Robert Hammond, saved the relic for its current refurbishment.
The new High Line will be a stroller's paradise: a grassy, skyborne walkway linking such disparate worlds as the Meatpacking District's restaurants, Chelsea's art and late-night club scenes, and the Javits Convention Center. Here, then, is our guide for navigating your own personal investigation of the Line's ground-level neighbors—everything from the spanking-new Highline Ballroom, with its great sight lines and state-of-the-art concert sound system, to the sleek and chic sculpture at Mary Boone Gallery. While you're out, don't forget to glance westward for the best sunsets in town. — Sarah Schmerler and Robert Simonson

Alternative Therapies for Bedwetting
It is not difficult to find alternatives to the traditional approaches to bedwetting, but deciding whether to try them is something else entirely. From acupuncture to homeopathy, there are a lot of options and still more questions. An open mind, independence and the willingness to sift through a lot of information are required of parents looking to treat their child's bedwetting.
Chiropractic Care
The most often mentioned alternative approach to bedwetting, or enuresis, is chiropractic care. Although once seen as way out of the mainstream, chiropractic manipulation of the spine is now recognized as a medical treatment. Some insurance companies even cover these services for specific ailments, mostly involving the spine.
Chiropractic care for nocturnal enuresis treats the bladder through manipulation of the lower spine and pelvis. Since the nerve supply to the muscles, which control urinary emptying, are connected to the brain through the spinal cord, it is believed that aligning the spine will correct any slow messaging or incomplete signals between the brain and the bladder.
The idea, however, is controversial. "Just bring it up at a conference of pediatricians or neurologists and watch the fireworks," says William Cockburn, a chiropractor in Whittier, Calif., who has seen a 50 percent response in 30 days by enuretics in his family practice. He believes parents and chiropractors need to communicate better on causes and treatment options.
Some experts in chiropractic want more proof. "There is not a lot of clinical science literature on spinal manipulative therapy for kids who wet at night," says Joseph C. Keating of Phoenix, Ariz., vice president of the Association for the History of Chiropractic who has written often on the need for evidence-based research in chiropractic care. "Bear in mind that the spontaneous remission rate for enuretics is about 15 percent per year."
Hypnosis is another option for parents seeking non-invasive methods of treatment for bedwetting. The hypnotist works with the subconscious brain to make positive connections with the conscious goal of awakening to visit the toilet in the night. Instead of using negative reinforcements from an alarm system, the child is trained through self-hypnosis and visual imaging to respond to physical symptoms of a filling bladder before an accident. This method emphasizes relaxation, self-control and independence.
The National Kidney Foundation reports that children who can benefit from this treatment usually show improvement within four to six sessions, but they caution that more studies are needed to determine its true effectiveness.
Hypnosis exists on the edge of mainstream medicine. While it is generally acknowledged as a valid approach for some conditions, it is rarely recommended by pediatricians or other resources for parents seeking help with bedwetting.
That may be changing as medical researchers begin to gather data on hypnosis under controlled conditions. The University of Michigan's Department of Pediatrics has reported that hypnotherapy relieved nighttime enuresis by 43 to 73 percent over Imipramine – a drug prescribed to treat bedwetting – using a method described in the book Dry All Night (Little, Brown, 1990) by Alison Mack.
Hands-on Approaches
Between the very physical chiropractic approach and the very cerebral hypnosis approach are a number of alternatives that involve touch. Like many alternative and complementary health methodologies, these therapies seek to re-establish balances of energy within the body and are adapted to different problems and individuals.
Acupuncture, one of the most familiar therapies to Westerners, originated in China and is still practiced there. Using filament-thin needles, the acupuncturist targets the flows of energy in the body. A 2001 study of 50 children with primary enuresis reported 43 "completely dry" children within six months when treated by traditional Chinese acupuncture.
But treating needle-shy American children with acupuncture is a special challenge. "I don't wear a white lab coat," says Sarah A. Steed, a licensed acupuncturist in Sperryville, Va. Steed says she will sit on the floor with a child if it feels more comfortable and has even had a child fall asleep during treatment.
The idea of inserting needles in children is still a difficult sell for most American kids and for parents not familiar with it. Fortunately, there are other methods that follow some of the same underlying philosophies, which do not involve needles. These include acupressure, electropuncture, shiatsu and reflexology.
These therapies apply pressure to accessible parts of the body that correspond to the internal organs believed to be afflicted. With bedwetting, the organs targeted are usually the bladder and kidneys. Parents are often encouraged to learn these techniques from the therapist to be performed at home.
Homeopathy is a 200-year-old therapy set in motion by a German physician skeptical of the apothecaries of his era. The process of diagnosis in homeopathy is much more extensive and individualized than with mainstream Western medicine. Two people with similar symptoms might be treated with entirely different remedies due to differences in mood, sleeping habits or symptoms elsewhere in the body.
Homeopathic remedies are based on a "rule of similars" and contain extremely diluted doses designed to stimulate the natural defenses of the body. Remedies often prescribed for enuresis are Equisetum Arvense, causticum, belladonna, lycopodium and pulsatilla.
Although homeopathy is widely agreed to cause no side effects, there is a longstanding antipathy between practitioners of homeopathy and mainstream medicine. Currently, advocates of both sides are coming together to perform science-based research. The World Health Organization cites homeopathy as second only to traditional Western medicine in use throughout the world.
What Is Right for My Child?
Remember, bedwetting is not your child's fault and is not the result of laziness. And, while there is no known cure, choosing a method that fits your child's needs is something that you and your family will have to decide. Speaking with your physician is also a good idea before trying various treatments.
And keep in mind that all of the above are experimental – some may work for your child while others may not. "We tried every kind of medical expert I could find as my daughter grew into a teenager," says a Virginia mom of a 14-year-old child who wets the bed. "Then we tried some alternative therapies. None has worked yet, but we will keep trying: We want our daughter to feel every angle has been explored."
If none of these methods seem right for you, or even if you are working through bedwetting with different approaches, using disposable underpants as part of your plan is a non-invasive way to cope with enuresis. Waking up dry helps the child's self-esteem, and cuts down on laundry for you.

Traffic ground to a halt on Interstate 35E on Tuesday afternoon near Maryland Avenue after a dog somehow escaped onto the six-lane freeway just before the afternoon rush hour.
The dog managed to make its way all the way across three lanes of traffic to the median. Lines of vehicles formed as multiple motorists corralled the animal away from moving cars, many stopping and getting out of their cars to do so.
Although several drivers tried to lure the dog closer, it hid behind construction barrels and eventually fled into a barrier between the lanes and continued through to the other side of the freeway.
By the time the Minnesota State Patrol arrived at the scene, the dog had made its way to the other side of the divided highway. Luckily, two drivers stopped on the opposite side and were able to coax the dog into a car and wait for troopers to arrive.

Guest Star: "After Big Phil Died, T.I. Felt Really Paranoid & Nervous About Almost Everyone" -Toure
Thursday, Jul 15, 2010 1:15PM
T.I.'s homie, Big Phil, who was his man from childhood was killed in Cincinnati and that really hurt him and he felt really guilty because he wasn't able to do something.
And after that, he felt really paranoid and nervous about almost everyone coming up on him on the street and talking to him and rolling up next to him at the light. So that's what really led him to acquire all these unlicensed weapons and led him to go to jail.
T.I. had some really deep, emotional, psychological things to work through in terms of dealing with strangers approaching you and knowing you as a famous person and the paranoia that might go along with that. And then he had the guilt of being there when your man gets killed and they're trying to kill you and they get him. T.I. said to me, "If I had had a gun, it wouldn't have gone down like that."
I think that really opened his eyes and that's what made him say, "You know, I'm never going to get myself into this situation again." I think he really learned and took a lot from that situation and made the changes he felt were necessary.
So T.I. really had to rearrange himself emotionally after that situation. And I think that taking care of himself emotionally dealing with Phil had a much bigger impact than when he went to jail because this is a man who's already been there before. So that's not a huge experience for him.

In a press release, Lt. Governor Bill Bolling today announced that he will not run for Governor. Many pundits had reported that Bolling was considering running as an independent.
In the release, Bolling said "after a great deal of consideration I have decided that I will not be an Independent candidate for Governor this year." The release lists several reasons for the decision, including the financial difficulty of running as an independent, and Bolling's existing ties to the Republican party. Bolling also indicated that he was "heavily influenced by a growing dissatisfaction with the current political environment in Virginia. Politics is much different today than it was when I was first elected. "
Bolling's decision means that Republican Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli and Democrat Terry McAuliffe.

George A. Romero's disturbing classic 1968 horror film about a zombie epidemic.< read all 13 reviews

I was thoroughly entertained while watching this movie and I have watched it over about 50 times or so. As I watched it for the first time I was constantly wondering, "Whats gonna happen next?"

News: B.I.G. Saved The LOX From Death, "We Were All About To Get Into That Same Car" [Video]
Sunday, Dec 5, 2010 9:39AM
The LOX's Sheek Louch recently reflected on his memories of the late Notorious B.I.G. and said the Bad Boy superstar prevented his crew from riding in the same vehicle where he was fatally shot 13 years ago.
According to Sheek, he recalls B.I.G. specifically telling the LOX not to ride with him after leaving a VIBE Magazine Los Angeles party in 1997.
"I remember that whole sh*t, when we were at that [VIBE] party, came downstairs and sh*t and we were all about to get into that same car with B.I.G.," Sheek revealed in an interview with DJ Vlad. "B.I.G. said 'nah, I'm gonna go over here first and meet you at the [DJ] Clue party.' Clue had a party up the hill and told me, Kiss and Styles, 'don't get in this van.' I remember, he told us, 'don't get in the f*cking van. I guess I gotta go check something out.' After that, we had a little church van we were riding around with in L.A. -- boom, went up to the sh*t and seconds later, 'pop pop pop', all that sh*t took place. But I remember his exact words, 'don't get in here yet. I gotta go do something.' That's crazy." (Vlad TV)
R&B singer Faith Evans recently admitted to doubting whether or not the mystery behind her ex-husband's murder would ever be solved.
According to Faith, the family of B.I.G. has an idea of what happened to her husband, although she doubts it will ever be solved in the United States court system. "The family - we have an idea what happened. We don't know who pulled the trigger but we have an idea what went on," Faith Evans told UK newspaperThe Voice. "It's not something I would speak on because it's still a pending case, so that wouldn't be smart at all. But we have an idea, though we don't know if it will ever be solved in the judicial system." (The Voice)
Earlier this year, B.I.G.'s protege Lil Cease spoke on the 13-year investigation of his friend's passing in Los Angeles.
"I'm definitely upset about it," Lil' Cease said in an interview. "I think it's something [the police] should look into, especially when you see all these other things going on and you see how they pursue other cases. It just seems like when it came to Biggie, it was, 'Oh, another rapper, another hoodlum, another gangster is dead.' Same thing with 2Pac. These were two of the most influential figures in hip-hop, and you're not finding these people's murderers? Or not even making a real attempt to? It upsets you, 'cause they're treating them like nobodies but they had a big influence in the game and people look up to them. No matter what they rap about or what they'd been through, they were still human beings at the time." (MTV)
B.I.G.'s death was believed to have been the result of a feud with West Coast rapper Tupac Shakur.
In just a few short years, the Notorious B.I.G. went from a Brooklyn street hustler to the savior of East Coast hip-hop to a tragic victim of the culture of violence he depicted so realistically on his records. His all-too-brief odyssey almost immediately took on mythic proportions, especially since his murder followed the shooting of rival Tupac Shakur by only six months. In death, the man also known as Biggie Smalls became a symbol of the senseless violence that plagued inner-city America in the waning years of the 20th century. (All Music)

It's time to help change attitudes
2:00pm Thursday 6th February 2014 in News
TODAY marks the first ever Time To Talk Day from the mental health campaign Time To Change.
A recent poll has revealed only a third of people ask their friends and families how they are on a daily basis, and few people ever have conversations about mental health.
Today, the Time To Change campaign, led by mental health charities Mind and Rethink Mental Illness, is asking people up and down the country to have a conversation to help get mental health more openly discussed in order to remove the stigma.
This could be as simple as asking someone how they are, sending a text or having a conversation over a cup of tea.
Time To Change Director Sue Baker said: "Talking more openly about mental health is a powerful way of breaking down the stigma one in four of us with a mental health problem have to face."
For more information and for tips, tools and conversation starters go to www.time-to-change.org.uk/talkday.

Frankly I am tired of journalism telling me that someone's prejudice is my "stigma." Frankly I am tired of journalism cooperating with someone who claims someone's prejudice is my "stigma."

Paul Myerberg, For the Win
Here's your feel-good, tell-your-friends story of the day. First, a little background.
Before joining Clemson's football program in 2012 as a walk-on, wide receiver Daniel Rodriguez spent five years in the Army, serving 18 months in Iraq and one year in Afghanistan. On Oct. 3, 2009, Rodriguez was one of 38 U.S. troops who battled 300 Taliban insurgents in the Battle of Kamdesh; for his valor and heroism in battle, Rodriguez was awarded the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star Medal With Valor Device.
He's been a part-time contributor from the start, pitching in as a special-teams dynamo and lightly used wide receiver in the Tigers' wide-open offense. More than anything, however, Rodriguez has served as an inspiration for both his teammates and current and former members of our armed forces. Last winter, after one season on the roster, Rodriguez won the Discover Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award.
This takes us to Saturday - fittingly, Military Appreciation Day at Clemson, which played host to Citadel.
One thing Rodriguez hadn't achieved as a Tiger was score a touchdown; that changed early in the fourth quarter, when Rodriguez took a short flip from backup quarterback Cole Stoudt into the end zone for a two-yard score.

Perhaps you are used to doing running workouts or bicycling workouts, and now want to add a swim workout to your regular workout routine, but think you are a weak swimmer and won't be able to do it? If you can swim four, 25 meter or 25 yard lengths of a pool, then you can use the Build to 500 Meters or Yards Swimming Workout Plan to build up to a swimming workout that totals 500 meters or 500 yards of swimming.
Maybe you are a beginner swimmer stuck in a workout rut, always swimming the same swim workout, week after week, and want to try something different? Here's a swimming plan to help you get fitter (and maybe faster) through progressive swimming workouts.
This swimming workout plan is divided into two, 4-week periods. Each 4-week period has three weeks of increasing work and one week of recovery. There are optional work outs to modify the plans for swimming two, three, or four times each week. The ground work is the same regardless of the number of swim workouts each week - you are going to build fitness and maintain or develop better technique.
Getting stronger but sloppier is not the answer; you need to develop or maintain your swimming technique, and you need to get fitter - you need both. While you do want to have the best technique possible, there is a balancing act between the current level of fitness and the ability to hold great technique. If you are not fit, you cannot do the stroke correctly.
My experiences show that it is like a teeter-totter. Increase fitness, improve technique; back and forth, focusing on one or the other as the primary emphasis of each swim workout set. Do not ignore either factor at any time, but do not try and develop both simultaneously. It becomes physically and/or mentally exhausting to always try to focus on both. It is very difficult to do both at the same time, and it can get very frustrating. We'll mix both exercise and skill development within a swimming workout, but seldom will you purposely place equal focus on both at the same time.
This is not necessarily the same type of plan that would be used by a high school, college, or club swimming program that is focusing on a peak performance during a certain period of the season, like a conference, state, or national championship. This workout plan is intended to meet general fitness needs. It can be adapted to fit almost any goals, from an aerobic exercise session to a workout plan for the swim leg of your next triathlon. This workout plan could repeated 6 times to give you almost a full year of workouts. As you get in better shape you will complete more repeats for a given section. You can repeat these workouts as you get fitter. Finally, remember to consult a physician before beginning any fitness regimen.
This is how it works:
- Get a pencil and paper (you may want a calculator as well).
- Take a look at
- Determine how many workouts you will be doing each week.
- You should do at least two, but you could do as many as 5 workouts each week.
- Determine the maximum time for the longest workout to start the program and for the entire 8-week period.
- I recommend no more than 75 minutes per workout for this plan.
- Do not increase more than 10% per week in total workout minutes.
- 5 to 10 minutes each week is a good goal.
- Start with your longest workout in Week 7 and complete the other Total Minute sections based on percentages of that longest workout.
- Multiply the number of minutes in a given workout by the percentage of that workout's pieces or parts (round up or down to the nearest minute).
- You will complete the number of minutes of each piece of each workout (rest up to one minute between each piece).
- You will complete as many repeats as time allows in each piece (when there is time leftover, use it for additional rest).
I am going to assume that you are using a 25 yard pool; 2 lengths = 50 (yards), etc. If you are in a different size pool, adapt the workout accordingly.
The speeds to perform during a workout - Easy, Moderate, or Fast - are relative to you and your ability and are what you think they are for now.
- Easy is very low effort
- Moderate is an effort you can repeat several times
- Fast is an effort you could only do a few times, one that requires more rest (than moderate or easy) to maintain the effort level
Use drills for technique work during workouts, or have a friend or a lifeguard watch you swim and give you some feedback. You can find more on drills on the About Swimming Technique Pages. You may want to add some dryland strength work or stretching. Good luck with your swimming workout plan.
Swim On!

FLETCHER, Okla._
Black Friday has come and gone, but while many people may have checked off their Christmas lists, they are still searching for that perfect tree to tuck them under.
With the droughts the past couple of years across Southwest Oklahoma, many tree farms have closed and gone out of business. But for those who have managed to survive, they say they're still able to provide families with a Christmas tree this holiday season.
In Fletcher, Larue Hill of D & L Christmas Trees is as dedicated as it comes to growing the perfect tree.
And while the drought has undoubtedly taken a toll on Hill's trees this year, he says he's happy to say he's still going strong.
In 1988 Larue Hill was retiring from his third careers. He's been in the military, worked for Goodyear and finally the Elgin School District. He knew he would need something to keep him busy, so after seeing an ad about Christmas tree farming he decided to give it a try.
Hill said, "Well when we started out, the first year we probably sold, we probably sold 12 trees."
Since then he's seen his business grow. He says they sell around 200 trees ever year, and gets lots of new as well as returning customers.
He said in 1988 there were over 90 Christmas tree farmers in the state, but now only a handful, "The problem being is there's not a lot of money to be made in Christmas trees. Although a lot of people seem to think there is."
And of course the weather in this part of the world is anything but cooperative. The horrible drought last year took out a third of his crop, and he's still feeling the heat this year.
"We would have probably had another 100 trees that would a been sellable this year had not the droughts come along."
He plants around 200 new trees every January and tends to them year round. And even though it's hard work, he's not complaining.
"It keeps me out of the house. I'm retired, so I retired military, and I retired from the school system so I don't like to around and watch TV."
Hill and his wife love the Christmas holidays, and now that their kids are all grown, they said it wouldn't be the holidays without their favorite part of their line of work...
"Watching' the kids come out. we have a couple of families here in the area that have 8 or 9 children and they all come out and they're just, they're all stair stepped and they're really fun to watch."
Hill said in order to ensure your tree survives the holiday season, make sure to water it and that there's no need for any fancy solutions or plant food.
D&L Christmas Trees and Wreaths is open for business until Christmas Eve.

A controversial fumble call against Denver is sure to be the subject of much discussion today, and maybe for the rest of the week depending on how this game between the Vikings and Broncos ends. With Minnesota leading by a score of 12-7 with less than a minute to play, Vikings defensive end Jared Allen sacked Tim Tebow at Denver's 28-yard line.
The ball popped out of Tebow's hands, and Allen recovered for a one-yard gain, giving the Vikings excellent field position and just enough time to put some more points on the board. However, Tebow's knee looked to be down before the ball popped out of his hands. Video review upheld the ruling on the field, and Minnesota added a field goal to take a 17-7 lead into the locker room at half time.
Former Vice President of Officiating for the NFL and Fox analyst Mike Pereira, agreed with the call on the field. He said this via Twitter:
Den/Min-the ground can cause a fumble if the runner is not down prior to the ball coming out.Tebows knee was not down when the ball came out
That was Tebow's first turnover since Week 8.
Here's the video, make the call youself.

Sometimes people surprise their doctors, nurses, and loved ones by recovering from an illness or injury despite a grim medical prognosis. When that happens, some people believe that miraculous healing has taken place.
Miraculous healing usually refers to when someone who had been sick or injured recovers in ways that can't be explained medically. It may also refer to a situation in which a sick or injured person recovers unexpectedly due to an extraordinary medical treatment that God may have used to heal the person, such as a transplant or a new medication that proved successful despite the odds against it working.
Usually, say believers, miraculous healing happens in response to prayer. If people have prayed for God to heal a person who then recovers, they often naturally connect their prayers with the healing that has taken place. But the cause of any miraculous healing must be taken on faith, since there's no way to objectively prove for certain what caused the unexpected healing, even if people understand all the various aspects of a person's medical treatment.

After a man reported seeing an old school friend breaking into his home, deputies said they were able to connect the suspect to the burglary at Croft State Park.
Spartanburg County deputies said they were called to the victim's Country Club Road home about 7 p.m. Tuesday after the victim reported that Michael Strickland, 37, had kicked in his front door while no one was home.
According to the sheriff's office report, the victim had recently become good friends with Strickland, knowing each other from when they were in school. He told deputies Strickland came over to spend time with him and his father a few times of week so he was not surprised to find his car in his driveway Tuesday.
But when the victim looked closer, he realized that Strickland's car was running, his dad was not home and no one came to the back door when he knocked, according to the report. That's when Strickland was seen leaving from the front of the house, deputies said.
When the friend stopped Strickland, he said he was there to see the man's dad, the report said. They two chatted for a few minutes then Strickland said he had to go because he was selling a Polaris ATV, deputies said.
When the victim went inside, he discovered the kicked-in front door and told deputies he feared Strickland may have tried to steal his father's medicine but was stopped because he came home, according to the report. The report said the dad confirmed the front door was in tact when he left and nothing was stolen.
While deputies were at the house, they said Strickland returned in his car along with a female driver. As deputies spoke with the woman, they said she reported having several items at her home Strickland brought over that she feared were stolen, including the ATV he had sold.
In the car, deputies said they found a table saw reported stolen from Croft State Park along with several pawn slips, including one for a trolling motor also reported stolen from the park. The woman told deputies she had feared for her family's safety if she reported the items, but she let them come to her house where they found more things from the park including two duck boxes, a pressure washing, marine battery, tool box and more, according to the report.
Deputies said when they searched Strickland, he had several hundred dollars in cash on him he said was from the ATV he had sold he claimed to have bought several years prior.
The report said Strickland also had a cell phone with text messages about selling items that were possibly stolen.
Lt. Tony Ivey with the sheriff's office said Strickland was arrested and charged with first-degree burglary in connection with Tuesday's case and additional charges were pending. He said additional arrests may also be made in the case.
So far, deputies have not recovered the ATV. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.

This franchise has been on cruise control for quite a while...so sad.
Right now to be 100% honest I think the biggest problem with the Bucs is a crisis of confidence. You see it in the coaching staff on the sideline and you see it in the players. We had 2 blunders that pulled the JAX back to 14 all, at that point the game was lost. Everybody, and I mean everybody said "here we go again" and went into the tank. The body language said it all. For example, Freeman is throwing the ball and is hoping it will be caught. Last year he was throwing it and expecting it would be caught. That has to be put down to the coaching because that kind of lack of confidence demonstrates the players have confidence in the coaches.

George Robert Gray
George Robert Gray FRS (8 July 1808 – 6 May 1872) was an English zoologist and author, and head of the ornithological section of the British Museum, now the Natural History Museum, in London for forty-one years. He was the younger brother of the zoologist John Edward Gray and the son of the botanist Samuel Frederick Gray.
George Gray's most important publication was his Genera of Birds (1844–49), illustrated by David William Mitchell and Joseph Wolf, which included 46,000 references.
He was born in Chelsea, London to Samuel Frederick Gray, naturalist and pharmacologist. He was educated at Merchant Taylor's School.[1]
Gray started at the British Museum as Assistant Keeper of the Zoology Branch in 1831.
He began by cataloguing insects, and published an Entomology of Australia (1833) and contributed the entomogical section to an English edition of Georges Cuvier's Animal Kingdom. Gray described many species of Lepidoptera.
In 1833, he was a founder of what became the Royal Entomological Society of London.
Gray's original description of the Gray's Grasshopper Warbler, which was named for him, appeared in 1860. The specimen had been collected by Alfred Russel Wallace in the Moluccas.

Mike Bithell
Rectangles are easy: the hidden difficulties of creating "simple" games
Ben's note: Hello! Mike Bithell and I were having a conversation about how "hard" or "easy" it is to make a game like Thomas Was Alone, and his insight into the development process was interesting. Whenever that happens I like to hold up my hand, politely leave the conversation, and ask him to write it down so I can share it with my readers. Enjoy!
Hi, my name's Mike and I made a game called Thomas Was Alone. It was pretty good. It's came out nearly a year ago, and is now on a slightly embarrassing number of different platforms. In fact, it's been purchased by over half a million people, a number massively skewed by its inclusion in the current Humble Bundle. Because of the game's success, I can make anything I want next, and I am. This is obviously awesome.
The biggest criticism I've seen on the internet of the game, after those stacking levels, my apologies, is its simplicity. A lot of people have complained that it's a bit like a flash game. That I used rectangles for my art because it was easy. Some slightly crueler people have described it as lazy. I worked insanely hard and made a lot of sacrifices around a full time job to make it, so it's hard not to be frustrated by these comments, but at the same time, there's a grain of truth to them.
Not the lazy bit, I work silly hours. I'm writing this at 11pm.
But there's something to the comments on the game not being very technically advanced. It isn't. It was made in the free version of Unity by a non-coder getting by on tutorials and the odd query of experts on Twitter. It was, from a technical point of view, relatively easy to make.
And that's staggering to me.
Games are becoming easy to make. You might not be able to make an RPG, but I bet you could make a rectangle jump on another rectangle if you read up on it and grabbed Unity. I bet you could set up a win condition so that when the rectangles reach their exit, the game moves on to the next level. It's a hop, skip and a jump from there to getting some music playing, and a bit of narration adding meaning to all the jumping.
If a full-on game engine like Unity doesn't appeal, then you can do fantastic things in Twine. It's amazing how many have managed to wield it for amazing new experiences. We're not quite at the point where making a game is as easy as using a paintbrush in Photoshop, or typing a line of text in Word, but we're getting there. Of course, just like Photoshop or Word, knowing where the buttons are only makes creation straightforward from a technical point of view. You won't become a great artist or writer overnight. That takes failure, learning and time. Asking a hero what software they use will yield no useful information.
And if you do make something good, there's a lot of work to do, platform integration, bug fixing, contracts, PR (oh, so much PR), porting and about a million other tasks. They're all hard, but you'll learn, because you'll have to. And you'll whine about it to friends, who will tell you to grow up, because "boo hoo, your dreams all came true".
If you look at indie games and think they look easy to make, or accessible to produce, you're right. They are. The difficulty lies in making them well. If their simplicity frustrates you, or you think you could do better, then you should absolutely do so. Many of the greatest artists and entertainers of the ages were driven by a desire to do better than those who went before.
Thomas Was Alone started with me looking at indie games and thinking "I could do that". It is my absolute hope that someone out there looks at my game and thinks the exact same thing.
Rectangles are easy.

PG Play: I won't deny I was not expecting to be impressed by many of the players on show but the Thunders Reggie Jackson and the Celtics E'Twan Moore. While Jackson started off slow shooting and had a few turnovers. He took a little break came back on an channeled his inner Russell Westbrook. He attacked the basket, wasn't afraid to take contact and started distributing the ball alot more but the real star of the show was Moore who closed out the game in the middle of the 4th with a big 3 which put the Celtics out of reach. In all likelyhood neither of these guys will never start for their teams right now because both are set at the position but it'll be interesting to see if any other teams pick up on these two.
Sullinger vs Jones: This was one of the most interesting things about this game was that we got to take a look at two guys that could have gone high lottery if things had gone their way. But for these two I think it's a blessing for both. It's hard not to watch Perry Jones and be excited. He's so smooth, moves so well and extremely comfortable with ball in hands. As for his toughness I don't think there was many issues during the game. He showed willingness to get in amongst the big men and score and hit the boards. His strength however was hitting the jumper off the pick and roll. As a whole it was a good start for Jones. Sullinger however stepped it up. It was obvious to see the post game every time he caught the ball in the post but what I was impressed by was his face up and his range on his jumper. I knew he could shoot but I did not know he had 3pt range on him. He seemed more then happy to take the ball on the perimeter and take a shot. As for any indication of the back injury. I saw none. He moved well and was not afraid to play his usually physical post game. It'll be interesting to watch both players as the games continue considering both of these players solid starts.
Kanter vs Drummond: I won't deny I was excited to see these two go at it and I was sort of overcome by what I saw. A couple days before this game Greg Monroe had gone up against Drummond in a scrimmage and said he was built physical centre who wouldn't back down. So I was kind of bermused to see Kanter go at him so readily considering he had a 20lbs difference against him. But what really puzzled me was Drummond's sudden urge to play the step back face up game. Now I won't deny that either centre had their way because they didn't, both Drummond and Kanter absolutely shut each other down so trying to get a sample size for offense is rather difficult. But from what I saw Kanter is more developed post game wise and Drummond either is trying to prove he's versatile and able to step back and hit a face up jumper or he's really smart and knows that if he goes into the post he's just going to get fouled and have to go to the line and my good god he does not want to go to the line. 2 Air ball's, I pray that it's just a stroke issue and it can be fixed because he is a talent player no doubt. He's a really pest on defense and his offense can go places if he works on it but he needs to get his free throws sorted.
Extra Notes: One thing I was particularly interested in seeing was the progress of Detroit's PG Brandon Knight. Knight was constantly on the move and buzzing about on offense, attacking the basket and creating chances for teammates. Despite all that I have a few reservations about him and his ability to keep ahold of the ball. He has a bit of another Kentucky point guard in him in John Wall. Wall has all that attacking talent but has struggled to keep his turnovers down. While there was no huge inclinations of this today once he starts playing in the pro's with his type of play it could be something to be wary of...........Andrew Nicholson was extremely impressive for the Magic. I had once thought of this guy as a possible candidate for the Warriors 30th pick and well I would not have objected to it considering what I saw today. We knew he could score but I was impressed by his rebounding ability and his post defense. Certainly someone to watch over the next few days....One thing I am rather worried seeing is Thunder centre Cole Aldrich. I don't know if it was Fab Melo showing us what a defensive monster he really is but if you're on the court for 31 minutes and only score 1 point and 7 rebounds as a big man, you've had a bad day. Aldrich is now in his 3rd year in the league so you would think that he would start to show some of the promise that made him a lottery pick back in 2010 but apparently he is still trying to figure things out. He'll be another player worth watching for the rest of the week to see how he goes too.........One final note on U.C Santa Barbara alum in Orlando Johnson. Orlando was extremely impressive for the Pacers against the 76ers. He shot the ball well and rebounded rather well too, he's another name that will be on alot of people's lips by the end of the summer league.
(This is the first of hopefully a few Summer League Diaries that i'll do over the course of the next 15 or 16 days or so. If you liked this one and want to see more feel free to let me know in the comment section. Hope you all enjoy reading the article)

Liindy Ruff definatly has some tough decisions to make with the season around the corner. Training camp is underway for the rookies and youngens while the big guns loin the fun this Saturday at HSBC for a free practice at 10am. There are 2-3 opening spots do deal before the season starts and with Mair out 6 weeks or so with a hip injury there is definatly some openings. Ruff and Reiger sound like excited school girls over 6'8 Dman Tyler Myers and it will be interesting if they give him a look right out of training camp. Kennedy another young star looks very promising and will definatly get a shot at some point in the season but I think he has a real shot at a roster spot by opening day at least for the begiining of the season. Here is how I see the lines playing out for the beginning of the season.
Vanek Connelly Stafford
CMac Roy Pominvile
Grier Hecht Paille
Kaleta Gaustad Ellis
reserves...Kennedy, Mair(hurt), McCormick (portland most likely to start)
Lydman Tallinder
Rivet Butler
Sekera Montador
reserve...Paestch, Weber, Meyers will have a shot at some point this year but really, IDK
Some variation of the lines...just my prediction.

Armenian-born "King Arthur" Abraham's prevailing thoughts going into the Super Six World Boxing Classic were that he couldn't "win on points in America," so his game plan was to attempt to knock "Son of God" Andre Ward out. But Andre Ward proved his mettle by out-punching Abraham's heavy hands.
December 6, 2010
On fight night, Nov. 27, World Boxing Association (WBA) super middleweight champion Andre "Son of God" Ward defended that title for the third time by fighting a grueling and aggressive war against the very dangerous, power punching Sakio "The Scorpion" Bika and coming out the victor in a 12-round unanimous decision fight.

Guest Star: "There Was A Time I Felt I Was Slipping A Little Bit W/ The Lyrics"
Wednesday, May 4, 2011 2:50PM
[With his three-year jail bid finally behind him, Mobb Deep's Prodigy recalls keeping his pen game strong while incarcerated and why his situation helped steer his career in a better direction.]
While in jail, I wrote about 210 songs. It's about 20 albums worth of material. Most of them aren't even recorded yet. Since I've been home, [I've recorded] 65 to 70 songs. And then there's brand new stuff that I wrote and recorded after I came home.
In total, Mobb Deep alone has about 80 new songs. We've only put out about two Mobb Deep records so far, "Love You More" and "Dog Sh*t" with Nas. And then I put out about seven of my songs on an EP with Complex. We definitely doing it. Right now we're focused on that Mobb Deep album and trying to save all of these songs to see which ones we want to use for Mobb Deep and then we're gonna start to line up a bunch of other projects.
There was a time where I felt I was slipping a little bit with the lyrics. I started feeling myself a lot and then started getting real lazy. So when I got locked up, I was like, "You know what, I gotta fix this sh*t," because I was headed down the wrong road. And that's not the way I'm trying to go at all.
Prodigy is a member of Queens rap duo Mobb Deep, alongside producer/rapper Havoc. The duo have put out multiple albums since the early 1990's and spent time on record labels including 4th & B'way, Loud and G-Unit. After serving a three-year jail sentence, P was released in March 2011 and has actively promoted his new autobiography, My Infamous Life.

"The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" e-book Review & GIVEAWAY!
My Thoughts-
"The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" by Valarie Budayr and Graphic Illustrator- Roscoe Welply
I don't even know how to begin to describe this interactive eBook of "The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". I think of words like, colorful, interactive, fun, family actives, amazing, adventure and so much more. The book contains over 20 different crafts and actives fun for everyone in your family. This is like nothing I've ever read before.
I loved exploring through the world of Willie Wonka. As a kid I always imagined what it would be like to win a golden ticket and get to explore this chocolate factory. With this book it brought it all to life. The book starts you off with an activity you set up for your kids so they can find the golden ticket. There is even a link to a page for you to print out golden tickets for your kids to find, making it all the more real.
You can read the book straight through or jump around and go where you want to. You will see the map below and be able to click on each room and jump to the story and activity for that room.
There are so many fun activities you can set up for your kids or do with your kids. The one below looks like so much fun. Square candy that looks round. Sounds so much like a Wonka treat to me. The kids can have fun decorating them with you, but be sure to include "two eyes, a nose and a mouth" in order for it to be an authentic Square Candy that looks round.
I'm not sure I can even say enough to tell you how amazing and fun this interactive book is. I've spent hours looking through it, sharing it with my kids and I know we have plenty more hours of fun to do. I would recommend this book for every family. It's educational, fun and brings out the imagination.

Roald Dahl is my favorite author ever! What a great idea for a companion book.
The creation of a new ritual of reading time with your family and the opportunity to experience the reading of this imaginative tale as a group activity, not a solitary event.
