Hi everyone, this is my first post in this blog so a little introduction, I'm a college student born and raised in Mexico City until I moved to Monterrey for college about 2 years ago. I'm actually a bigger football fan than a basketball fan, as you can probably guess by my user name; but I'm still a big basketball fan, and huge Spurs fan since 2004, which is when I truly began watching the NBA. Since I'm pretty much obsessed with following my favorite sports teams, some of my "city I want to visit before I die" are directly related to those teams, and I loved to fulfill the first of those goals when this past April I was lucky enough to visit San Antonio (loved the city, and the Riverwalk), unfortunately, I couldn't make it to a game, but I'll guess that means I'll have to go back some day.
Now, on to the point of the post. I'm still in disbelief on just how dominant this team has been in the last 30+ games. I mean, not only have they gone like 29-2 or something like that, with one loss coming on a game when the rested TD, TP and MG, but their wins have almost exclusively been on 10+ margins. On top of that, they have completed their 2nd consecutive sweep by beating the Clippers on game 4, advancing to their first WCF since 08. To be honest, I don't even think they played their best basketball in this series, I get the feeling the offense was not as efficient as in other games, but even if that's true, they dominated. It's impossible at this point not to get excited about the possibility of adding banner #5 to the AT&T Center.
However, aside from the mind-blowing numbers the team has piled up, the more I think about it, the more anxious I get. Some analysts and writers argue that the team has yet to be truly challenged, an argument that I agree on. The Spurs haven't been in many close games throughout their recent dominance, and with OKC and KD pretty much winning all the close games they've been in, this worries me a bit. I have watched all the close-game finishes of OKC's playoff run, and the poise and calm of KD when he is about to unload a 3-pointer from the top of the key in the final minutes of a tied game in L.A. is something to take notes on. I believe the Spurs are better than the Thunder, but I just can't shake this uneasy feeling that the Thunder are, right now, better prepared if the series should come down to some close games. I hope to be wrong about that last statement, I trust the team will prove me how mistaken I am.
As for the other team in that series, almost an afterthought with a 1-3 deficit, I can't belive I'm gonna say it but, I will be rooting for them in game 5. I honestly feared the Lakers as they entered the WCSF, the only reason being their "match-up advantage" with Gasol and Bynum. Again, I've never doubted the Spurs could take them if they had to face them, I just want to avoid the anxiety. Nevertheless, at this point, I just hope that they'll be useful to us. I don't know if this is in any way true, but as much of a rest bonus we get over our opponent, the better for me. This is the only reason why I want the Lakers to win game 5, if only so they can force OKC to play another game before going to San Antonio.
As for the East, I have no idea who to root for, other than some reservations about facing LeBron and Wade, or the Celtics tough D, I don't have much to say about them. In my opinion, the Spurs are the best team in the NBA today, by far, and in my opinion, the most difficult roadblock left in the way to the title goes by the name of Kevin Durant and the Oklahoma City Thunder. I'm a bit more confident about getting it done in the Finals.
Anyway, that's all I have to say, I know I'm probably worrying too much, but if I don't do that I just don't feel right. I hope I can contribute some interesting stuff on this site, but for now just.... GO SPURS!!!!

Sunnie Finkle, age 39, faces a felony charge of aggravated assault for a domestic violence incident with her former boyfriend and business partner G. T. Wilson, age 38, that Finkle swears never happened.
Wilson told Tampa police Finkle confronted her at a gas station last December, pointed a gun at him and said "you are dead."
Finkle says Wilson fabricated the entire incident and tricked Tampa police into arresting her based on the false testimony of a phony witness.
The day of Finkle's arrest Wilson told police they were married and going through a divorce.
In truth, Finkle and Wilson only pretended to get married in front of friends and family several years ago in Honduras. They had a ceremony, cake and wedding gifts but never had a marriage license.
Years later, both of them are now under investigation by the FDLE and Polk County Sheriff's Office in a separate matter involving their real estate business practices.
In deals that span at least three counties over a two year period, Finkle solicited financially distressed homeowners facing the threat of foreclosure and offered to arrange a quick short sale with a ready and willing buyer.
In most of those deals, Finkle's then-boyfriend G. T. Wilson, who ran a company called HomRes Inc, was the so-called investor. Homeowners say they had no idea Finkle and her "investor" had a personal relationship.
But instead of acquiring the properties through short sales, Wilson advertised the distressed homes in Craig's List and other sources, and rented them to tenants who thought he was the owner. Records show that Wilson only owned one home and he lost it in foreclosure.
Wilson said he was legally entitled to become the landlord and to keep all of the rent proceeds in the deals originated by Finkle because Finkle encouraged the homeowners sign an irrevocable power of attorney putting Wilson's company HomRes Inc. in charge.
In an 8 On Your Side Investigation, a number of homeowners in Pasco, Hillsborough and Polk Counties complained they had no idea that Wilson had rented their homes to tenants.
The homeowners said they didn't understand the documents they signed for the short sale would enable him to take control of their homes without investing a penny.
Wilson said the documents contained all the disclosures required by law and he wasn't trying to trick anyone.
A number of tenants told News Channel 8 they thought Wilson owned the homes and only found out later the homes were in foreclosure and Wilson's name was not on the deed.
The Polk County Sheriff's Office is investigating one fraud complaint in which tenant Curt Kniffen says back in November he responded to a Craig's List ad for a "lease with an option to buy," paid Wilson $1,200 rent in advance and completed $5000 in repairs on a home in Lakeland that he later discovered was facing foreclosure and owned by a couple he'd never met.
According to a PCSO police report a Bank of America representative tried to put a lockbox on the door in March about seven weeks after Kniffen and his family moved in.
"The unknown named representative advised that the home was in foreclosure and they had no record of them living in the residence," the report says. "The former homeowners, the Hammett family, was contacted and they had no idea that the Kniffen family was living in their former residence."
The Hillsborough Sheriff's Office says it has received a number of complaints regarding Finkle and Wilson's short sales deals in that county and turned them over to the FDLE where they are now the subject of a broader state investigation.
A Pasco Sheriff's Office investigation into a short sale deal in that county ended without charges several months ago because Wilson agreed to give homeowner Peggy Vieira the rent he'd connected while it was in foreclosure.
Vieira said Monday she still hasn't received a penny from Wilson. "I haven't heard a word from him," said Vieira, "And I don't expect to."
Finkle can no longer negotiate short sales because her real estate license became "inactive" when the Broker she worked under terminated his sponsorship of her in February. Wilson sent letters to customers telling them he was voluntarily getting out of the business to pursue other interests.
Wilson is a licensed bondsman who has worked in the past at his mother's business, Abby's Bail Bonds.
Before their relationship soured last year, Wilson and Finkle used their considerable communication skills to get homeowners and tenants to sign dozens of real estate deals. Prior to that, they even organized public seminars about mortgage rescue tactics until the state ordered them to cease and desist.
But lately, Finkle and Wilson have nothing to say about their personal fallout or the business practices detailed in an 8 On Your Side Investigation that have now drawn the attention of criminal investigators in two law enforcement agencies.
Wilson wouldn't say a word about her aggravated assault arrest or her business ventures at her arraignment last week.
G. T. Wilson was similarly tight-lipped. "No comment," said Wilson as he left the courthouse with an unidentified female companion in tow.
Finkle departed through a separate exit.

Penguins notebook: Days off planned with careJanuary 23, 2013 10:00 AM
Share with others:
The Penguins practiced Monday, starting about an hour later than usual, after flying home from a game in New York the night before. Tuesday, they rested.
That might seem backward from the outside-- why not take Monday off after back-to-back road games and travel and practice Tuesday, the eve of their home opener tonight against Toronto?
But coach Dan Bylsma put a lot of thought into his team's schedule for the lockout-induced 48-game season.
"That is a reflection of the shortened schedule and the limited practice time that we are going to be having this year," Bylsma said. "We certainly wanted to have a day off, and we're taking the day off [today].
"I wanted to get a good, solid day of practice in and then have a full day of rest going into the game vs. having a day of rest [Monday] and then having a light practice the day before a game on Wednesday. This will happen a couple of other times."
Team captain Sidney Crosby is fine with that arrangement.
"I like this," he said. "More mentally, it's good to turn the page quickly. We're going to come in [today] and be ready to play and not be thinking about the New York win."
This schedule also works toward a different end.
"We know it's going to be fast and furious, and that was the understanding coming in," said left winger Matt Cooke. "But, by coming down here [Monday] and having a preparation skate for Wednesday, we get [Tuesday] off and that gives us more time away from the rink.
"Guys are going to have to take advantage of it and really rest up because with being tired that's usually when injuries happen, and we have to guard against that."
Goalie plan work in progress
Goalie Tomas Vokoun, who got the start and win Sunday night against the Rangers, said he won't fret about what the goalie rotation will be this season with Marc-Andre Fleury.
"They told me, I would say, three, four, days in advance. They're good about that. I like to know," said Vokoun. "But the only thing I'm worried about is winning and playing in the playoffs. Everything else, in my position, I'm trying to help the team.
"It sounds like a cliche, but that's really where I am right now. I've played for a long time, played a lot of games. I want to do well, be on the ice in June."
Bylsma said while it was "a no-brainer" to start both goaltenders with back-to-back games this past weekend, "right now, we don't have a set [goalie] schedule going 10 games down the road. Marc-Andre Fleury is going to play the majority of those games, but Tomas is going to get games."
The past few years, the Penguins worked ahead to map out which games Fleury and then-backup Brent Johnson would play. The closest thing to a working plan Bylsma has this season is that there will be something around a 60-40 or even 55-45 split, with Fleury starting the higher number of games.
Crosby prepared
The penalty kill sometimes requires seemingly feverish movement and energy, but Crosby isn't concerned he might overdo that or spike his minutes too high now that he is getting more time playing shorthanded.
"I don't think it really adds that much," he said.
Crosby skated 1:25 short-handed Saturday in the 3-1 season-opening win at Philadelphia and 43 seconds in that role the next night against the Rangers.
Byslma has said Crosby is now considered part of the mix of penalty-killers, but situations such as the placement of the faceoff will determine when and how often he does so.
Crosby has played in most other situations and has planned for the day he killed penalties with regularity.
"I've been going to [penalty-kill] meetings for a long time now, trying to learn," he said. "You want to put yourself in position to get that responsibility of possibly being out there. It's more or less doing it in games and getting comfortable."mobilehome - penguins

Virginia Tech football at Duke: Who do you think will win?
Source: The Washington Post - Oct 28, 2011 at 10:31 AM
Virginia Tech Coach Frank Beamer has spent all week reminding his players (and reporters) that the Hokies' opponent Saturday, Duke, is just three points away from being 5-2 instead of 3-4. And before last year's 44-7 rout, the Blue Devils gave the Hokies fits in their previous two games. That's not to say Duke won those games – it hasn't beaten Virginia Tech since 1981. This, though, might be the best Blue Devils team in quite some time, especially offensively. Read full article >>

The college football season isn't over yet. Kent State is playing one of the most important games is its history. And the rest of the MAC, and the Hustle Belt? They obviously couldn't care less.
Not a single article about KSU since December 18th. Apathy by the MAC and the Hustle Belt is the only description that fits the situation.
How does the MAC, and supposed MAC blogs, expect to gain respect for the programs when they ignore their own and thumb their noses at an MAC team like Kent State?
Parades may not be necessary, but some support from the "home crowd" would have been highly recognized by the college football world. Someone dropped the ball, and it wasn't Kent State.


text: Does anyone know who will be visiting Norman this weekend? I was also wondering through recruiting posts on Sooner Nation reading about Mario Edwards and DGB. What are the possibilities of us landing DGB and Mario? Bob Stoops would probably like to add another tackle, perhaps a linebacker or maybe even another corner. We have 14 commitments including Trey Metoyer so who do you think will end up in Norman next year? Is Mario Edwards or Dorial Green Beckham on that list?

From the diaries. Grab a tissue. I needed it. Also viral tags added below. - N
Everyone has to check this out over at bruinville.com. It's the best compilation video of the sc game yet. The ending made me cry all over again, it's that good.
Some responses:
SnailOfWestwood:Larmz, you are amazing. Seriously, this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen =)
You are awesome. I had goose bumps and chills the entire time I was watching that.
CANYBruin:I am at work, but knowing what fine work you did on the basketball video, I couldn't wait to watch this. It is spectacular Larmz! Great use of music, and good synchronization of images to the music too. Once I get home, it will be downloaded onto my computer to save for eternity.
Ranelar (yea I'm using the third person):Oh man. That was friggan beautiful, your ending made me break down and start crying with joy like I did when I was on the field that day. In fact, you can see me walking around dazed on the field in the second to last scene with the UCLA flag and the band, I'm the big bass drum. As a graduating fifth year, and probably the biggest UCLA fan in the band, this win meant everything to me. I would LOVE to have the higher quality ones. Thanks for doing this, I'm definitely going to watch this over and over.

Taking a DT in 1st Round??
Drafting Liuget will simply turn the defensive line into a major strength for the Bears. The offensive line actually came together nicely as the season progressed so the need there is not nearly as significant. And this is with Nawrocki still having Sherrod and Banks having Ijalana on the boards.

A township police officer has been charged with several drug and weapon offenses following an investigation into allegations he had been illegally purchasing prescription pills.
Ptl. Thomas E. Eden Jr. was arrested Tuesday at approximately 2:30 p.m. at the Howard Johnson Express Inn at 832 N. Black Horse Pike, in the township's Blenheim section, after he allegedly purchased seven prescription pills from a police informant, Police Chief W. Harry Earle said during a press conference Wednesday afternoon.
Eden was on duty, in uniform and driving a township police cruiser at the time of his arrest, according to Earle.
Eden, 31, was released on his own recognizance following his arrest. He has been "suspended without pay with the intent to dismiss," Earle said.
Eden is scheduled to appear in court on April 11, according to the arrest warrant obtained by Gloucester Township Patch.
Eden is accused of purchasing five 30 mg Percocet pills and two Oxycontin placebo pills from an undercover officer, according to Earle.
He was also in possession of three oxycodone and two alprazolam pills when he was arrested. It is alleged Eden did not have a prescription for those pills, either.
Eden, a seven-year veteran of the Gloucester Township Police Department, has been charged with third-degree possession of a controlled dangerous substance, third-degree possession with intent to distribute a controlled dangerous substance, third-degree possession of an imitation controlled dangerous substance and second-degree possession of a firearm while committing a drug offense.
The second-degree charge carries a five- to 10-year prison term. The third-degree charges carry mandatory three- to five-year prison sentences.
The investigation was conducted by the Gloucester Township Police Department's Professional Standards Bureau after police received what Earle described as an anonymous tip that Eden was illegally purchasing prescription pills. Earle would not indicate how long ago the tip was received.
Gloucester Township Police issued a announcing the arrest Wednesday morning. The officer was not identified in that statement.

News: Kanye West Suffers Embarrassing Wardrobe Malfunction During Yeezus Tour
Monday, Oct 21, 2013 12:19PM
Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West may have needed some baggier pants on the opening night of his Yeezus tour in Seattle as photos of him experiencing an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction have surfaced.
In the photos, Mr. West is clearly shown performing with a noticeable rip on the interior of his pants.
Kanye West went full balls out during his concert in Seattle this weekend -- with a crotchel wardrobe malfunction, crazy masks and a cameo from Jesus! KW's pants split right down the middle during one of his songs -- but Kanye didn't seem bothered and moved on like it was no big deal (It looks like he's got underwear on, so it wasn't like it was full dong exposure or anything). But the real story is the facewear -- ya gotta check out the pics. (TMZ)
The highly anticipated nationwide run officially kicked off over the weekend.
Kanye West kicked off his Yeezus world tour in Seattle on Saturday night, According to reports on Twitter and Kanye To The, he played a 27-song, two-hour set which encompassed material from his entire discography. Included were the live debuts of Yeezus tracks "Hold My Liquor, "I'm In It", and "Guilt Trip", in addition to "Street Lights" from 808s and Heartbreak. He closed his show with the dynamic one-two-three-four punch of "Jesus Walks" into "Flashing Lights" into "All of the Lights" into "Bound 2?. (Consequence of Sound)
Prior to Yeezy coming out and facing off with a Jesus lookalike, West Coast sensation Kendrick Lamar opened up the night.
The stage design included a giant mountain on which Kanye rapped from. An equally massive video screen above the mountain flashed elaborate visuals, including animations of the rapper. He was frequently joined by a group of backing dancers, and at one point, a Jesus Christ look-alike also took the stage alongside Yeezus. It's worth noting that the show began two hours later, reportedly due to an equipment truck being stolen. Kendrick Lamar served as opener and performed a nine-song set. (Consequence of Sound)
According to reports, a previously scheduled Sunday (October 20) night Canada concert was nixed.
Kanye West's second Yeezus tour stop was supposed to be tonight at Vancouver's Rogers Arena. However, the arena has announced via Twitter that the show has now been postponed, instead taking place on October 31. This means that the Yeezus tour's second date will be on Tuesday, October 22, in San Jose at the SAP Center. The first date of the Yeezus tour took place last night in Seattle. Kanye is being accompanied on tour by Kendrick Lamar for most of the dates on his first solo tour in five years. (Complex)

But local parents are not pleased with the plan, some even saying it reeks of evil.
The school, Moss Bluff Elementary, would pilot the program, which is supposed to help move 1,000 students through the lunch line more quickly and with fewer errors.
But some parents have called the technology "the mark of the devil," and some even said they would transfer their children from the school if it is implemented.
"As a Christian, I've read the Bible, you know go to church and stuff," Mamie Sonnier, a parent, told KPLC TV. "I know where it's going to end up coming to, the mark of the beast. I'm not going to let my kids have that."
Parents can opt their children out of the program, if they so choose.

5:00am Wednesday 5th February 2014 in News By David Crozier, Nostalgia Editor
Print chief Mr Robert Maxwell was due in Watford today (Friday) to discuss last-ditch proposals for saving Sun Printers from the receiver.
But some union officials at the Whippendell Road factory, which produces TV Times, the Sunday Times colour supplement, Woman's Own and Weekend, are pessimistic.
Two weeks ago Mr Maxwell, chairman of Sun's parent British Printing Corporation, withdrew his own survival plan calling for 338 job losses.
The unions' counter-proposals envisage keeping the workforce at 1,300 and making economy cuts in other areas – and the unions do not think Mr Maxwell will risk losing face.

Conventional Ways to Fight Infection and Cancer
Growth factors
Medications called "growth factors" help stimulate the growth of your blood cells. Neupogen (chemical name: filgrastim) can boost your immune cell count, and Procrit (chemical name: epoetin alfa), Epogen (chemical name: epoetin alfa), or Aranesp (chemical name: darbepoetin alfa) can raise your red blood cell count.
Flu shot
The flu arrives in most areas of the United States during the winter months, and flu shots are usually available several months before that. It's particularly important for women affected by breast cancer to get a flu shot.
What is a flu shot?
The flu shot, or influenza vaccine, is a mixture of dead flu viruses that prepares the immune system to fight the actual virus if it enters the body. It's like giving a search-and-rescue dog a shoe to sniff so that the dog remembers the scent and can find the owner of the shoe. The immune system remembers the viruses in the flu shot, and is ready to attack if one shows up in your body. The viruses are destroyed quickly, before you come down with any symptoms.
Getting the shot does not guarantee that you won't get the flu, but it does mean that you have a much smaller chance of getting sick from it.
Why is the flu shot important for women affected by breast cancer?
There is a common misconception that getting a flu shot may be harmful if your immune system is weakened by disease or treatment. Getting a flu shot is particularly important for people with weak immune systems, because they are the ones who are the most vulnerable if they actually catch the flu. These people include babies, the elderly, people with allergies, and people with chronic or acute illnesses.
When should you get the flu shot?
Try to get the flu shot two months before the flu usually hits your area. Some areas are affected earlier than others. Many areas are hit in January and February, so the time to get the shot is November or December. Ask your doctor about the recommended time for your area.
People receiving chemotherapy can get the flu shot any time. However, your doctor might advise you to wait and get the shot when your white blood cell count is at a peak, usually the day before your next treatment. There are two reasons for this:
- The higher your white count, the more effective the shot will be. A low count is like a search-and-rescue dog with a weak sense of smell. The weaker its sense of smell, the less likely it is to recognize the owner of the shoe. Your immune system will be able to fight the flu better if there are more immune cells around to "sniff" the viruses in the flu shot.
- Side effects of the flu shot might be confused with infection. Chemotherapy lowers your white blood cell counts. When your counts are the lowest, your risk of infection is the highest. During treatment, your doctor watches you carefully for signs of infection, like fever. But the flu shot can also cause a fever. If you get a fever while your counts are low, your doctor has to treat you for infection, possibly with unnecessary hospitalization, tests, and antibiotic therapy. Your doctor may not want to introduce this confusion when your risk for infection is highest.
If your counts are chronically low, generally you can receive the flu shot any time.
Ask your doctor when is the best time for YOU to get your flu shot. And make sure to get the "OK" from your cancer doctors first.
Who should give you the flu shot?
Any qualified medical person can administer the flu shot. However, some insurance plans cover the flu shot only if you get it from your primary physician. Find out what your policy covers before you decide where to get the shot.
Does the flu shot have side effects?
In most people the flu shot causes no reaction. The viruses in the shot are dead, so you cannot get the flu from it.
In some people, the flu shot may cause mild side effects, including soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given, fever, and aches.
These mild symptoms usually begin soon after the shot is given, and last one to two days.
Like any medication, the flu shot can cause a serious allergic reaction, but the risk of this is very small. If you have any unusual problems a few minutes to a few hours after getting the shot, such as high fever, difficulty breathing, hives, weakness, or dizziness, call your doctor right away.
For more about flu shots, you can download information from the Centers for Disease Control website.
Pneumonia shot (pneumococcal vaccine)
What is the pneumococcal vaccine?
Pneumonia — a bacterial infection in the lungs — is a common complication from the flu. In addition to a flu shot every fall, it's a good idea to get a once-in-a-lifetime pneumococcal vaccine.
Why get the pneumococcal vaccine?
- The shot protects against almost all of the bacteria that cause pneumonia.
- It's safe.
- It's covered by Medicare.
- Most people only need one shot to protect them for the rest of their lives.
Who should get the pneumococcal vaccine?
- people age 65 or older
- people with a chronic illness such as advanced breast cancer, heart or lung disease, or diabetes
- people with a weak immune system due to illness and/or the effects of chemotherapy
- residents of nursing homes and other long-term care facilities
- Alaskan Natives and certain American Indian populations
What are the side effects of the pneumococcal vaccine?
You cannot get pneumonia from the vaccine. Some people may experience mild side effects, however. These can include swelling and soreness at the spot where the shot was given. A few people may experience a fever and/or muscle pain.
You can get more information on the pneumococcal vaccine from the U.S. government's Centers for Disease Control or from MetaStar, a nonprofit health care quality improvement organization.
Egg allergy alert:
The virus in the flu shot is developed in egg products. If you are allergic to eggs, discuss with your doctor whether you should get the shot.

Cordele- Hundreds of families headed for Lake Blackshear this weekend. Even with the threat of afternoon showers, families are taking advantage of holiday summer fun.
Georgia Veterans State Park officials say weather hasn't effected attendance at all. "We're always booked every single weekend rain or shine it doesn't matter. They hardly ever cancel and they're still out here," says Tammy Rivers.
Rivers says the park has been selling out of campsites every weekend, and Fourth of July is no exception.

The Galapagos Islands are a nature lover's paradise. Isolated from the mainland for thousands of years, some of the most unusual species in the world evolved here, including giant tortoises, marine iguanas, blue-footed boobies, and even the world's only equatorial penguin. The islands comprise the Galapagos National Park and were recently named a "World Heritage Site". Nearly all uninhabited, these islands can only be visited with a certified naturalist guide on one of the Galapagos yachts approved by the park service.
Adventure Life offers 7 and 10 day Galapagos tours on over 40 different yachts. On our 10-day Galapagos tours, we visit eight to ten of the islands described below. The 7-day tours typically visit four to six islands.
Each island offers something unique. Unusual geological formations, tortoise nesting grounds, rare bird species, winding lava flows... These are just a few of the features located on individual islands. Read the descriptions below to learn more about the highlights on each island.
Contact us to select a Galapagos cruise that features the islands that interest you most. You can also access the island itineraries for each yacht from our Galapagos tour page.
San Cristóbal (also called Chatham)
Home of the oldest settlement in the islands, San Cristóbal claims some of the most spectacular landscape. Cloudforests in the highlands are a perfect habitat for giant tortoises, and Punta Pitt is one of the only places to see red-footed boobies.
Española (also called Hood)
This is the southernmost island and the breeding site of nearly all of the world's 12,000 pairs of waved albatrosses. Española teems with mockingbirds, blue-footed and nazca boobies, Darwin finches, Galapagos doves, hawks, red and green marine iguanas, and sea lions.
Floreana (also called Charles)
At Punta Cormorant a flamingo lagoon can be found behind white and black mangroves. Clear water and interesting coral growths make Devil's Crown a perfect spot for snorkeling. Floreana is also home to Post Office Bay, where 18th century whalers used a barrel as an unofficial mail drop. The custom continues to this day between Galapagos visitors!
Santa Cruz (also called Indefatigable)
Santa Cruz is home to the Charles Darwin Station, where visitors can observe tortoise research and breeding programs. Don't forget to say hello to the tortoise Lonesome George - the last of his species. A trip to the highlands offers the chance to see enormous pit craters, lava tunnels and giant tortoises roaming freely.
North Seymour
This tiny island is packed with countless sea lions and it's one of the most popular breeding grounds for sea birds. A very large colony of frigate birds nest here, and it's almost guaranteed to see a few males proudly displaying their red pouches to impress a mate.
Rábida (also called Jervis)
Rábida is a bird-watcher's delight. Some of the rarest species are in abundance, such as 9 varieties of finches, large billed flycatchers, Galapagos hawks and brown pelicans. The dark red sand beaches and a horde of snoring sea lions make for spectacular snorkeling.
Bartolomé (also called Sullivan)
Home of the famous Pinnacle Rock. Climbing to the top of this island rewards visitors with panoramic views of varied lava formations, volcanic peaks and a moon-like landscape. Bartolomé also provides the chance to swim with the unique Galapagos Penguin.
South Plaza
This small, steep-cliffed island was formed by uplifted lava and is covered by Opuntia cacti. It is also home to one of the largest sea lion colonies and colorful yellow and red land iguanas.
Genovesa (also called Tower)
Considered a bird-watcher's paradise, the volcanic sea cliffs offer prime breeding places for frigate birds, swallow-tailed gulls, storm petrels, tropic birds and red-footed boobies.
Santa Fe (also called Barrington)
The endemic land iguanas here can grow over five feet long and in true Galapagos style the Opuntia cactus, a favorite food of the land iguana, has responded by growing tall and woody - up to 33 feet high. Manta rays and sea turtles flit by as dark shadows against the sandy bottom of Santa Fe's beautiful anchorage.
Santiago (also called San Salvador)
Fur sea lions (once called fur seals) were thought to have gone extinct by 1905, but have since made a dramatic comeback. Santiago provides habitat for many of the 30-40,000 fur seal lions that call the Galapagos home. There are also plenty of lazy sea lions on the black beach of Puerto Egas.
The largest and one of the most volcanically active islands, Isabela provide habitat for five subspecies of giant tortoise - one for each of its five volcanoes. West of the island, humpback whales are sometimes seen breaching completely out of the water. Stingrays, small sharks, and turtles are found in mangrove lagoons on Isabela.
No foreign species have ever invaded this island, and, as a result, it claims one of the world's most pristine island ecosystems. After walking past a colony of marine iguanas and a group of lazy sea lions, visitors arrive at the island's highlight - the flightless cormorant nesting site.

The 2012 MLS Cup Playoffs continue with the LA Galaxy hosting the Vancouver Whitecaps at the Home Depot Center this evening. It looks like the Galaxy should take care of the Whitecaps with ease, while Vancouver is seeking to prove that they didn't back into the playoffs and they belong with the rest of the qualifiers.
The winner of this match will face Supporters Shield winner San Jose in the Western Conference semifinals starting Sunday, so there will be a quick recovery period between matches. Of course, this is a one-game play-in, so the loser won't have to worry about any more games in 2012.
LA Galaxy starting lineup (4-4-2): Josh Saunders; Todd Dunivant, Omar Gonzalez, Tommy Meyer, Hector Jimenez; Landon Donovan, Juninho, David Beckham, Mike Magee; Robbie Keane, Edson Buddle
Vancouver Whitecaps starting lineup (4-4-1-1): Brad Knighton; Jordan Harvey, Jay DeMerit, Andy O'Brien, Young-Pyo Lee; Matt Watson, John Thorrington, Alain Rochat, Gershon Koffie; Barry Robson; Darren Mattocks
Kickoff is at 7:51 p.m. PDT, 10:51 p.m. ET. You can watch the match on NBC Sports Network in the United States and TSN and RDS2 in Canada.

'Bill offering custody to unwed fathers has downside'
Article here. Excerpt:
'A bill to give equal custody rights to unwed fathers may be built on good intentions, but the potential for negative unintended consequences is unacceptably high. There are better ways to pursue the goal.
Prime sponsor Sen. Rick Murphy describes the bill, SB 1202, as an effort to address inequity.
"Absentee mothers can come back into the picture after years of absence, disrupt their children from a stable home with their father, and still have all the legal rights and be presumed by law to be the best custodian of the child," Republican Murphy said by e-mail.
Ironically, that is a mirror image of the scenario envisioned by opponents of this bill. They say it will enable fathers to disrupt the lives of children, including those for whom they previously expressed no interest.
What's more, advocates for victims of domestic violence say giving a man custody rights based solely on paternity could provide an abusive man with powerful legal leverage after a woman has fled a violent situation.'
Same old, same old
el cid - Sat, 2013-02-09 14:51
Whenever the law moves to give fathers more of a role in their children's lives, the "abuse excuse" will be used to deny fathers than expanded role. For example, shared custody arrangements are opposed by women's rights group because some fathers are abusive. Oddly enough, these same groups never cite the data showing mothers abuse children more often than fathers. So as reasonable as the concern about abuse might seem, it's really just a way to keep fathers out of the picture.
In my opinion, we should automatically give custody to unmarried fathers. Right now, we automatically give custody to mothers. If that's fair, reversing the situation is also fair. Single fathers do at least as good a job as single mothers raising children. And automatically giving custody to fathers would radically change the behavior of both men and women. Women would have no motive to deceive men into fatherhood. And men would be more cautious about creating children they would have to raise.
Two-faced feminists
sirprince - Sat, 2013-02-09 23:40
I love how on the one hand feminist organistations like NOW will complain endlessly about women being held back by the responsibility of being the primary carers of children, and how societal expectations place the burden of looking after children on mothers, yet on the other hand other (and sometims the same) feminists will oppose any legislation that might hand more responsibility to men, thereby relieving some of the burden on women.

Ben Saunders, still wants a rematch with the only guy he has lost to, Mike Swick. This past weekend, when he stepped into the cage and handed Marcus Davis his first KO loss, he still had Swick in his head:
"I just pretended it was Swick when the bell rang"
He says the root of it all comes from how Swick acted backstage after their UFC 99 fight:
"After the fight, (Swick) ended up coming to the back and talking for a bit. I was kind of feeling out if he was just trying to gloat or just trying to rub it in my face. What's going on here? I went with it. He seemed like it may have been he was more excited than gloating and I was like, 'Oh, that's cool man.'"
But then Saunders ran into Swick and the camp again later, he said.
"I went up to Bob Cook after, I was looking for my corner Paul Rodriguez and I said, 'Hey Bob, have you seen Paul?' said Saunders. "And he was like, 'Man, you're still smiling, huh?' I had nothing to be ashamed of. I got TKO'ed by Mike Swick and I'm fighting in the UFC living my dream and then they said something. Then as I was walking away his entire corner and Mike Swick were more like, 'Got knocked the f--- out,' or something like that. And I was like, 'Are you serious?' I thought that was ridiculous, arrogant and uncalled for."
"Mike Swick just was in the back with me trying to be cool with me and then you're going to act like that because you're with your crew and all laughing in my face as I'm walking away?"
Saunders says the rematch would have different results as he fought Swick with a fractured rib:
"I didn't know the extent of the injury until afterward, but I apologized to Dana and the UFC and all the fans because it was just really unprofessional on my part to go out there and not be able to perform, to put on a show or really fight to the best of my ability due to an injury and what not. I don't take it away from Swick. He beat me on that given night. He beat the Ben Saunders that was put in front of him and props to him on that. It really just bummed me that I had to put myself in that situation."
UPDATE - Mike Swick Responds to this via his twitter page:
Saunders, what you are saying about our post fight is 100% inaccurate. I was totally cool to you and still think your a really cool dude. No one from my Team disrespected you in anyway and would never say what you thought they said. 100% respect from me bro.
Really Saunders? Just read your interview. Your gonna try and make me look disrespectful then say you were injured for our fight? If you want a rematch just ask the UFC. If they want to do it I will sign that contract ASAP...
His coach, Dave Camarillo also chimes in:
Must be hype. We were cheering his win in the back.

And then there were two!
No. 1 St. Peter's and No. 2 Curtis will meet in the varsity championship game of the SIHSL Tournament after the Eagles and Warriors posted semifinal victories Wednesday night at the College of Staten Island, Willowbrook.
The two schools will meet Friday night at CSI at 8:30 for the championship. The Eagles will be looking to win their first tournament since 2009. The Warriors will be vying for their third straight.
The Eagles had their way with No. 5 Susan Wagner in the nightcap and recorded an 82-47 Victory. The Eagles led 40-17 at the half.
In the opener, Curtis staved off a scare from No. 6 St. Joseph by-the-Sea, 50-47.
The Warriors' Glenn Murray netted all of his 12 points in the second half to ignite the win.
The Warriors had trailed 24-21 at the half, but took control of the game in the third quarter when they outscored the hungry Vikings 19-9.
But Sea wouldn't go away and kept the game close with its perimeter shooting and even had the lead late in the game, before Murray and Co. pulled ahead and held off the Vikings.

A Florida politician and Kuwait war veteran, has said Obama, and Eric Holder, "abjectly despises" White people.
On his blog, Allen West, a former Republican Congressman for Florida, said Obama and Attorney General Holder were blaming White "racism" for the reason why more Black students are expelled from schools than others.
Obama and Holder's suggestion that schools should remove policies that "disproportionately punish minorities,", to which West suggested it's fair to punish blacks more when black students cause more trouble.
"I taught high school for one year in Deerfield Beach, Fla., and in the end, it was such an enjoyable experience breaking up fights daily, that I decided to return to the combat zone of Afghanistan," West wrote. "Teachers are already disrespected and attacked, not feared. There were students at Deerfield Beach who steered clear of the lunchroom for fear of being picked on or engaged in a fight"
"Yes, this violence on campus was perpetrated eight out of 10 times by black students, male and female, but it had nothing to do with racial disparity. It had everything to do with a lack of discipline and control," he wrote.
"[...]what is even more heinous is the message being sent that race is an excuse for bad behavior in our kids, an acceptable excuse at that. It means the death spiral for education in the black community will increase as we overlook or reward the most abhorrent conduct."
"This is my clear and succinct message to white Americans. How long will it be before "you people" realize you have elevated someone to the office of president who abjectly despises you — not to mention his henchman Holder. Combined they are the most vile and disgusting racists — not you."
West's comments were made in regards to a speech from Holder when he was speaking in Baltimore about school discipline.
"Alarming numbers of young people are suspended, expelled or even arrested for relatively minor transgressions like school uniform violations, schoolyard fights or showing 'disrespect' by laughing in class," Holder said in his speech.
People seem to forget that Obama was voted in power to take power from White people and give it to non-Whites.
Of course this power is going to be used unfairly, and of course this power is going to be used to commit White genocide, perhaps even a White genocide by mass murder.
Some White people are surprised that a Black president focuses on race, but it really did not take a genius to predict that – he was elected because he was black!

Old homes falling down and taking neighborhoods down with them.
Wood County is doing its best to deal with these dilapidated properties.
There's been substantial progress made at one location, while the commission is giving the owners of another a nudge to clean theirs up.
The Wood County compliance office has been working with the owners of two sites to remove deteriorating homes.
Among them, a former mobile home court off Route 2.
All but a few homes once on the former Hall's Trailer Court have been removed by developers who recently purchased the property.
"Progress is being made, the trailers are being moved out, the site is being seeded, and it looks far better than it did before," says Commissioner Wayne Dunn. "So there will be a turnaround that will be far better than when we did the turnaround a couple of years ago on Gihon Road."
The commission, meanwhile has given the owners of land on Hill Street near Core Road 90 days to clean up dilapidated homes on their property.
The commissioners last week asked the compliance office to give them more frequent updates on site clean ups.
It plans to do so on the Hill Street properties after that 90 day time frame ends.

Jimmy over at BloggingTheBeast had an article today addressing an NFL.com report on the Top 5 Deepest Teams in the NFL for 2012. The other teams are the Patriots, Steelers, Lions(?), and Bears(?). As both Jimmy and I agree, the Cowboys being on this list is head scratching, to say the least. I think there are multiple teams in the NFCE alone with more depth than the Cowboys (possibly all of them). Here is the link to Jimmy's article, which breaks down his thoughts on the Cowboys' depth.
My thoughts on the Skins' improved/improving depth after the jump...
2012 Skins Depth
The numbered criteria are the considerations that Pat Kirwin of NFL.com used to come up with his Top 5.
So, look at the 2012 Redskins and ask yourself: Do the Redskins have...
1. A backup quarterback who can go at least 2-2 if he had to take over for a month straight.
Yes. Grossman is a Top 10 NFL backup and had a month stretch where he went 3-1 last season.
2. A second running back who could be a 1,000 yard back if he had to take over or at least generate 75 yards of offense a week as a runner and receiver.
Hightower, Helu, and Royster each averaged 75 yards of offense during the games they got significant time in. Health is a concern, but quality depth is there and this IS a Shanahan offense. Insert name here could and has in the past earned 1000 yards rushing consistently in his ZBS. An emphatic YES.
3. A third wide receiver who could go in for a starter down and generate 4-6 receptions a game as an X or a Z.
Yes. If you pencil in Garcon and Moss as starters, the third WR is either Josh Morgan or Leonard Hankerson. Both capable of producing in either WR spot if needed.
4. A second tight end who could be a legitimate threat as a blocker or receiver.
TE is very deep with the Skins. Behind Fred Davis, you have your choice of Cooley, who if healthy is a very strong #2 TE. Even beyond Cooley you have an athletic, pass-catcher in Niles Paul (though inexperienced at TE). Even past that, Logan Paulson is a strong blocker and has made big catches in the offense when needed. An emphatic YES here also.
5. Two experienced backup offensive linemen. A swing tackle for either side and an inside player for the guards/center. Experience required because they will not get many reps in practice until injuries occur.
This is debatable. The Redskins backup linemen (Mo Hurt, Willie Smith, Tyler Polumbus) got some experience last year due to injuries. While nothing spectacular came from this, they did gain experience in the trenches in an NFL season and didn't make too big a fools of themselves (mostly). With the drafting of LeRibeus in the 3rd round as well as Adam Gettis in the 5th, both of whom project well in the ZBS, there is finally some depth on the Skins OL. It is yet to be seen if any of this depth will actually turn into production on the field for a sustained amount of time, but its still depth. I give this a PUSH. Though it seems to be trending the right direction and only time will tell.
6. A third defensive tackle already in a rotation that could play a whole game well if a starter went down.
This is a close one, but I am leaning towards a NO. Behind Barry Cofield, you have Chris Neild who had some moments last year in spot/roation duty. However, behing Neild you have Chris Baker, Kentwan Balmer and Delvin Johnson. I assume they could play the whole game if needed, but most likely not very effectively.
7. A pass rush specialist that could play some run down situations if a starter went down.
The Skins 3-4 makes this one an interesting question. Its hard to count their OLBs as pass rush specialists as they ask their OLBs to be active in run protection and pass protection. So looking at their DE depth, you can look to Jarvis Jenkins as a pass rush specialist at DE in the 3-4 who is also capable of playing in run down situations if Carriker went down. I give this a stong YES.
8. A fourth corner back that could bump up to the nickel corner if that player had to replace an injured starter.
Yes. With Wilson and Hall as starters and Cedric Griffin as nickel, Kevin Barnes is capable of stepping into the nickel if called upon. He played here all last season. There is an outside shot that one of rookies also is able to make that jump. If Chase Minnifield continues to progress off of his knee injury, he may become one of the steals of the offseason.
9. A third safety that can start or provide a defense with an opportunity to play some 'Big Nickel' when needed.
Not a chance. While they do have a high number of safeties in camp, they barely have two starters.
10. Four core special team players that could help on offense or defense in a pinch. That is a total of 14 players not listed as starters that become the most important people on a roster when injuries take starters off the field. Which teams look the most ready to answer the challenge of roster depth?
Also tough to tell. Niles Paul was a special teams standout last year as a rookie and he is capable of contributing on offense when needed. Lorenzo Alexander is an excellent special teams Captain who can also fill multiple needs on Defense, if needed. Rob Jackson also plays on special teams and can help out on D. I will assume that Keenan Robinson, 4th round LB out of Texas, will see significant time on special teams and might even get some snaps on D this year. So, I will give this a YES as well.
So, totaling all of that up I come away with 7 YES answers, 2 NO answers and 1 PUSH.
By the same count, Jimmy calculated that the Cowboys came away with 3 YES, 2 PUSH and 5 NOs. In his opinion that is not Top 15 depth.
What do you guys think about the Skins depth using these parameters compared to the rest of the NFCE?

He's all
And I'm like
Hello all. My name is Sofia, and I am a narcissist. I mooch off of the wealth of America, I buy things I cannot afford, I will destroy the NFL, I am ruining the country that Boomers have built, and I'm a good-for-nothing me person.
Except, wait, NOT. Rant ahead. Don't bother if you don't want, this was more for me than anything else.
Ticket lines, and places to dine
Taking baths and drinkin' wine
People ask, I say I'm doin' fine.
Motorcycles and for sure the Eiffel Tower
They were made for two
A double bed has never felt so empty
What's missing in the world is you
So I'll leave it in your hands now
To come through
I'll leave it in your hands now
To come through
I think that it's important for everybody to remember that their entire lives are still ahead of them and that one little thing that happens now, being single, or failing a test, or striking out with a boy or a girl, is leading the way for our future.

Richland County sheriff's deputies have arrested a man accused of stabbing three people on New Year's Day.
Officials arrested 25-year-old Jose Castro-Benegas and charged him with three counts of attempted murder.
Authorities say the incident took place at a party on Alpine Road when the suspect
and one of the party-goers began to argue. That argument eventually
turned physical, and three others attempted to split up the fight.
Deputies believe at that point Castro-Benegas pulled out a knife and stabbed three people in the upper body.
The victims were taken to Palmetto Health Richland and treated for their wounds.
Castro-Benegas remains in jail.

The Insulin Pump
Find out how pumps can make your diabetes life easier.
By Wil Dubois
This morning I took 2.14 units of insulin to cover my breakfast. Yes, you read that right: two-point-one-four units. Do I have the world's most accurate syringe and trifocals? Uhhh… well, "yes" to the trifocals; but "no" to the syringe.
I use an insulin pump: a marvel of modern technology that allows me to take incredibly precise and ridiculously small doses of insulin. I'll tell you all about how it works in a few minutes, but this accuracy is only a part of the benefit of "pumping." The real strength of insulin pumping is that pumps make life easier. Simpler. And simplified diabetes is always a good thing.
Pumps simplify diabetes by removing some of the grunt work of diabetes control. But let me be 100% clear about this: the pump replaces your pancreas, not your brain. It automates many of the day-to-day tasks of diabetes management, but it's NOT an automatic system. You still need to think about your diabetes, and make intelligent decisions about it.
Pumps are a shortcut, not a cure.
What is an insulin pump?
An insulin pump is nothing more than a fancy syringe. A syringe hot-wired to a computer. It's a cigarette pack-sized box with a supply of insulin which is attached to either a piston or a micro-pump to deliver the life-saving liquid from the box to your body.
While different pumps boast different fancy features, they are all designed to accomplish three basic tasks: to supply basal insulin, to give us insulin to "cover" meals, and to give us insulin to fix elevated blood sugar. That's it.
Basal basics
Let's talk about basal first, as this is the foundation of all insulin therapy. Basal insulin is the medicine that keeps our blood sugar in check between meals and overnight. If you take shots, you'll use either "N," Lantus, or Levemir for this job. But the pump does away with these extended-release insulins and instead covers your basal needs by constantly delivering a little bit of fast-acting insulin into your body. 24-7-365.
The benefit of this system is that you don't need to deliver that drip of insulin at the same rate all the time. You can vary it, creating what's called a basal pattern that better suits the needs of your body than the one-size-fits-all basal insulin shots. If you take a basal shot and have to snack at various times to keep from going low, you'll find this feature of pumps very liberating. You're no longer a slave to your medication — the pump is slave to your lifestyle.
Preset with the help of your medical team, this basal delivery is automatic. The pump takes care of it without any guidance from you. But this is the only thing the pump will do on its own.

The New York Times reported Tuesday that Penn St. Nittany Lions head coach Joe Paterno is on the way out, possibly as soon as some time within the next few days. The school's board of trustees has a scheduled meeting for Friday, which Pennsylvania's governor is supposed to attend.
The Associated Press reports a decision could be made even before then on Paterno's future:
The person is familiar with the trustees' discussions but says it's unclear what the consequences for Paterno will be.
The person says a decision could be at hand before the board meets Friday.
Paterno's son Scott has denied the Times report, saying Paterno's retirement hasn't been discussed and that he will coach this Saturday's game against Nebraska. But the board could make the decision for him. This can be cast as Paterno's willful resignment if Paterno prefers it that way, or Penn State can be forced to fire the man who's as much Penn State as Penn State itself. One way or the other, he's going.

After a trio of stylish, deeply emotional films in "I Killed My Mother," "Heartbeats" and the epic "Laurence Anyways," Xavier Dolan has shifted gears somewhat for his fourth feature, "Tom At The Farm." It seems the eye for visuals is still there, but an eerier tone and colder atmosphere pervades this thriller, and the first trailer has arrived to provide a tantalizing look at the picture.
Dolan takes the lead role in this one, playing Tom, who arrives to the funeral of his late boyfriend, only to tangle with his former lover's family who had no idea their son was gay. And what emerges is a film that we compared to the work of Patricia Highsmith ("Strangers On A Train," "The Talented Mr. Ripley"), that is both a thriller and a family drama, with Dolan bringing elements from those two genres to once again create his own unique picture. In our Venice review we wrote, "he's not simply aping Hitchcock, Clement and Chabrol (to name but a few), but melding them with his existing style and concerns...it's his most expansive and impressive work visually too, with the photography by Andre Turpin taking full advantage of the rural landscape and claustrophobic interiors."
With aspect ratio shifting sequences (watch here) and more, it looks like another one to keep an eye out for. "Tom At The Farm" plays the Festival Du Nouveau Cinema this month, but no firm release date has been slated yet for Quebec. There is currently no U.S. distributor for the film. Watch below.
TC Kirkham | October 4, 2013 4:38 PM
Looks like it's fixed here, but if not, you can still find it on the film's official Facebook - Dolan has linked to it there as well - http://facebook.com/tomonthefarm.

The recent decision to stop a national hormone replacement study has thrown a lot of women into a panic. A study of 16,000 women was cancelled by the National Institutes of Health when it was determined that women on the combination Estrogen Progesterone had an increased risk of Breast Cancer and Heart Disease. A lot of doctors say now, they are spending much of their time trying to calm patients by clearing the confusion.
"The instinct for almost everyone is, I'm stopping it today, you know, no questions asked. The best message is to stop, take a breath, remember what your doing on hormone replacement, why you are on it, what your reasons are and re-evaluate that with your physician given your individual risks," says Dr. Tracy Gaudet, a Gynecologist.
As advised by the NIH, patients should not stop therapy cold turkey because, as Dr. Gaudet explains, there are no black and white answers. Each woman needs to weigh her own risks and benefits with her doctor. She says it is important to note that the early results of the hormonal study do not apply to all forms of hormone therapy.
The study only looked at the Estrogen Progesterone combination called Prempro. A second trial of Estrogen alone in 11,000 women who have had hysterectomies is still underway. So far, there is no sign of an increased risk for Breast Cancer or Heart Disease in that group again taking Estrogen alone. The study is published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Experts stress that women using an estrogen-Progestin combo should not panic because the increased risk of Breast Cancer is very small, but women should ask their doctors to go over the risks and benefits. The study did find the therapy helped reduce the risk of Osteoporosis and Colon Cancer.
