Windows 8 pricing details?
Like just about everyone else I'm tooooo excited about Windows 8. I just can't wait to update to the real deal from Release Preview. October 26 just can't come fast enough! One Surface too, please!
So, I was just looking up the pricing details for Win8 Pro and it says $40 for a digital download and $70 for the physical copy, at least at launch, following which they will rise again. That seemed like a weird deal, considering that DVDs are dirt cheap and massive software upheavals have been known to crash even the mightiest of server farms. But I didn't mind. Why would I, it's 40 damn bucks! The Obama 'Not Bad' meme immediately popped up into my mind, as I remembered the days when we had to cough up a couple of Benjamins for the a legit copy. And my chain of thoughts led me to think - Why the heck is what is possibly THE BIGGEST Windows overhaul so damn cheap?
That's when I had an epiphany - Nowhere has any website, blog or forum enlisted the number of licences included! Which brings me to my main question - how many licences will the download and DVDs encompass? (I believe that the download will have one while the DVD should have two, to justify the high(er) prices, but those are just my hopes).
[P.S.: Yes, I own just one computer and need to upgrade just that one, but it really isn't good enough for college, and the laptop that strikes me as the perfect one for college is the - brace yourselves, or rather I should - the Macbook Pro with a Retina Display. I know how much you guys, being the 'Microsoft Tribe' hate it, but that's a topic is for another discussion.'That device' will be one of the chosen few not to have Windows 8 bundled within it, and I really don't wanna pay a premium price to buy something I already own, hence the whole discussion.]
I just read that I need the System Builder edition to run Windows 8 on the rMBP, since it wouldn't be an upgrade, but a fresh purchase instead. But, if I were to install Windows 8 Release Preview on it first, wouldn't that make the full version, technically speaking, an 'upgrade'? That would enable me to install a version of Pro which I had bought as an upgrade, wouldn't it? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

With 36 Information Stations (electronic kiosks) distributed across Virginia's entire state parks system and the companion VirginiaOutdoors.com website, the Virginia State Parks Interpretive Information System is the most comprehensive program ever deployed for interpreting and disseminating information about a state's park system.
The heart of the Virginia State Parks Interpretive Information System is the unique software and extensive database developed by Imperial Multimedia of Baraboo, Wisconsin. Nearly every state park in Virginia is home to these attractive structures that have been designed to reflect the historical and cultural context of the region.
Learn more...
A new way to enhance our experience in the outdoors has arrived. The Virginia Outdoors website has been developed to cater to outdoor enthusiasts.
VirginiaOutdoors.com provides visitors with an immersive experience that allows them to either quickly find information about specific activities and destinations in Virginia or spend time exploring the vast amounts of multimedia resources on the site.
Virginia Outdoors Radio is a syndicated radio magazine which features topics ranging from outdoor life, Virginia State Park news, cultural and historical features, as well as local and regional focus articles.
Imperial Multimedia and the Commonwealth of Virginia strongly believe in promoting economic development in and around the state parks. As a result of this belief we have created opportunities for local service providers to participate in the program with the option of adding, at a small cost, enhanced content describing their business or service.
Of greater importance is the opportunity to share specific information about your organization or business, its environmental initiatives, and its programs to Virginia's state park users and enthusiasts. This project can provide your organization with an excellent platform for reaching a targeted demographic with your message or cause.
The success of this project, and the depth of information we can provide, relies on the participation of public-private partners and sponsors such as you. We anticipate that organizations such as yours will join the Commonwealth in supporting the most comprehensive guest information program ever launched in a park system.
All of us at Imperial Multimedia and the Commonwealth of Virginia are confident that when presented with the breadth and scope of this project, that you will share the enthusiasm we have for its success. We encourage you to explore further and discover how you can participate in this exciting opportunity.

Prefixes Teacher Resources
Find Prefixes educational ideas and activities
Showing 1 - 20 of 1,445 resources
Young readers participate in a prefix game. They use laminated cards to recognize root words, prefixes, and antonyms. Everyone determines what happens to a word when a prefix is added.
Help learners grasp prefixes, antonyms, and spelling rules with this engaging game and the related worksheets. All directions and materials are included to give kids a variety of opportunities to interact with the prefixes mis-, dis-, un-, and il- along with several others. Designed for use with English language learners, this would be an excellent approach for any class studying these affixes.
Sentences take on very different meanings with the simple addition of an affix! Small groups use blank sentence strips to practice this concept with prefixes and suffixes you have been learning. First, each scholar writes a sentence with one word that can have an affix added to it. Then, they give it to another group member who figures out where it can be added. What does this new sentence mean? See which groups can come up with the silliest, most opposite, or most interesting sentence changes. Project the affixes they can use so groups can see them while doing this.
Use this elephant visual to give scholars a context for prefix and suffix examples. For each affix, they determine if it should be written on the tail or the trunk based on if it starts or ends a word. After listing it on the appropriate part of the elephant outline, scholars think of a word example that includes the affix, writing it on the elephant body. Do a couple of these as examples before letting kids think some up on their own. There are differentiated goals listed here.
What goes in must come out; using the graphic organizer included here, scholars send root words through the prefix/suffix funnel to become new words. Choose an affix to start with (for example, -able), then model how the funnel works as you send base words in and get new words out. Ask scholars to give you root words they think of and send them through together. For each word, record the original affix-attached versions on the T-Chart. Have learners do this independently by either coming up with more root words for the same affix or starting fresh with a new one.
You've never seen Chutes and Ladders like this; scholars review prefix and suffix examples as they move along the game board. Small groups get a deck of six cards with given prefixes and suffixes and a number on each card. The instructions are inconsistent with what numbers to put on the cards, but one or two works best. Players draw a card, moving their piece along the printable game board, which has spaces with root words. If the affix can be attached to the root word they land on, they stay on the space. If not, they move back one. There are some fun twists in this game, and you'll find differentiation ideas here, too.
Pull a root word from a hat and make new words by adding prefixes and suffixes. After a read aloud of the Peggy Parish book No More Monsters for Me and whole group practice identifying root words and affixes, youngsters play a game to develop syllabication and word-building skills. Includes solid modification and extension ideas.
The prefix and suffix cube is a great way to visualize affixes with learners. Model it first, writing a prefix or suffix in the box, drawing a picture, recording its meaning, and calling on learners to come up with word examples. Once they've seen you do it, have them complete one with a partner. Consider mixing this up and making it a guessing game by coming up with word examples first and challenging pupils to guess the affix meaning. There are differentiation ideas here.
Use a hand outline to review prefixes and suffixes. Modeling this approach with learners first, write the affix on the palm of the hand. The meaning goes on the thumb and a word example is recorded on each finger. Although there is a hand template included, consider simply asking kids to trace their own hands into a notebook. Another possibility to make this more of a puzzle, is to reverse the order: write the affix on the palm and brainstorm word examples first. Challenge scholars to guess its meaning using the example words as clues.
All you need to execute an engaging and effective word meaning lesson is to choose a prefix or suffix and make copies of this graphic organizer. Ideally you would project one of these for the class to see, modelling the strategy first. They write in the chosen affix and its meaning at the top, then come up with other root words to which it could be added. Learners draw a picture to accompany each word, showing visually how adding the affix changes its meaning.
Take an idea from the classic game Pictionary to give your scholars prefix and suffix review. They play Win, Lose, or Draw in two or three large teams, using a list of words with affixes as a guide. Teams send up a player who receives one of the words from the list to draw as his teammates guess. Switch off until all words are covered. This is best as a review of a large list of words, so save it until you've covered quite a few. Use this as a fun strategy for vocabulary words, too!
Help your class develop useful decoding skills to tackle new vocabulary they encounter and, at the same time, broaden their repertoires for writing. Learners compete in teams to see who can create the largest number of words by combining a set of prefixes with a set of base words. They check their new creations with the Visual Thesaurus. Interesting warm-up activities are included to encourage studying words.
Students form words using prefixes. In this prefix instructional activity, students compete in a "prefix challenge" to see which team can combine a set of twelve prefixes with a set of twelve words fastest. Students enter their words in a word log and add a Visual Thesaurus definition.
Math and language arts combine well as scholars practice with prefix and suffix examples. Using the graphic organizer, they complete an "equation" with a root word and affix as the addends and the completed word as the sum. Add an extra element by having them also write the meanings in all three shapes; do they notice how the affix's meaning adds to the root word's meaning to create a new meaning?
One of the best ways to learn about prefixes and suffixes is to come up with examples, and this graphic organizer helps scholars do just that. Print one out for each learner and project one for them to see. Choose either a root word, prefix, or suffix to put at the top, then have learners come up with other words with the same element. Start with an easy one like un- or human to get them going. Do a couple of these together before letting them try another few on their own.
Use prefixes and suffixes to deconstruct word meaning. There is a graphic organizer here to guide scholars as they come up with word examples for various affixes. The chart has space for five suffixes or prefixes. For each, they come up with a root word, the new word formed from adding the affix, and the new word's meaning. Consider also asking them to define the root word and the affix so scholars can see how adding it logically changes the meaning.
Partners battle it out for the most cards as they play a game of War using prefixes and suffixes. The most time-consuming part of this will be to make the card decks which must include words with prefixes, suffixes, and neither. Use the preparation as a learning opportunity by having partners split these and make them on their own. Consider using real playing cards and black markers to write over the print. The rules of the game are simple and written out here. Embellish with extra requirements as you feel appropriate for your scholars.
Students identify the common prefixes and suffixes used in the English language. They dissect a word into its various (root, prefix, suffix) parts and use a dictionary to determine the proper usage and derivation of each word part. Particular emphasis is placed on the proper form and usage of prefixes and suffixes.
Go grocery shopping for prefixes and suffixes! After discussing the meaning of these terms scholars use these grocery bag templates to separate words into roots and affixes, writing them on each of the items in the bag. There are four bags here for you to print, however it isn't clear how you are to use them. Consider displaying words for scholars to split, letting them choose which ones they will do. Then, have them come up and complete some of the words they did on the board.
Students participate in a competitive game of reviewing prefixes. In this word parts lesson students are given a prefix and one member from each team must race to the white board to write a word that contains the prefix.

Great professor, but lectures were BORING! Couldn't wait till they were over and headed to lab. Lab was where I basically got the picture of what we were discussing in text books. Homework was assigned every week which discussed the topic that was going to be talked about in class. Funnest part of the class was recording with students assigned.

text: The answer has to do with the different sizes of the water and ethanol molecules. Ethanol molecules are smaller than water molecules, so when the two liquids are mixed together the ethanol falls between the spaces left by the water. It's similar to what happens when you mix a liter of sand and a liter of rocks. You get less than two liters total volume because the sand fell between the rocks, right? Think of miscibility as 'mixability' and it's easy to remember. Fluid volumes (liquids and gases) aren't necessarily additive. Intermolecular forces (hydrogen bonding, London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole forces) also play their part in miscibility, but that's another story.

In HR, RBI, OPS, SLG, OPS+, TOTAL bases and XBH. IF I'm not mistaken, the only Dbacks to lead the league in an offensive category are Gonzo in hits, Dellucci in triples in 1998 and Womack in SB. remarkably, Gonzo did not lead the league in anything in 2001 because of both Bonds and Sosa.
Goldschmidty also held on for a 300/400/500 season joining only Cabrera, Trout and Mccutcheon. Werth started the day there but feel just below 400 with a bad day at the plate. A half dozen other guys just missed on either OBP or SLG

Hey, you made it. At least you are willing to look at the dark side of things.
Now, or not now but maybe later, you might be calling me "Chicken Little" but let me excuse myself from such a moniker. I was going to write this up Friday night but didn't get to it. Also, if you don't want to read some "not so much a ray of sunshine for this season" then you shouldn't read this post. More after the non-leap of faith.
First up, let me say this scenerio that I am building may improve with a Splitter in the picture but only by so much.
Cracks in the Spurs defense has turned into chasms within the last couple of seasons. Largely because of the aging of our best defender out their, the GOATPUFF. I do not need to elaborate on this point. Secondly, what we all hoped was the second coming of a Bruce Bowen type has dissipated into smoke time and again. I am beginning to recognize that Bruce Bowen may have been a rare a player as those Championships that the Spurs won. But I digress.
So no dominating man in the center + no shut down perimeter defender + thinking we can still do things the old ways = fail
Much like my friendly failing cat, the Spurs have been trying to fit into a window that is closed. Oh, I went there.
But wait! We just signed TP to a 4 year contract!
My response - just putting off the inevitable. Was it a good deal for a top ten point guard? Yes. Will it help us reach the playoffs, maybe. Will it help us win a championship? No.
The team is in a state of rebuilding, right now! The Spurs have so many new(er) guys on the floor that team chemistry is reserved only for the Big 3, whom it has been deemed by Time to not be able to perform at their once great levels (except maybe for Manu). Yes, yes, Timmy still puts up good stats but he is a defensive liability. Manu is awesomeness but can't do it alone. The French guy - yeah, well, I was one of the "haters" and you can still put me in that camp. Hill will not reach most people's exp, Blair is fun to watch but cannot guard bigger men, Gary Neal was a great pick up but will only flourish as a streaky (albeit) good shooter can, Tiago is not playing right now but will soon. He will help but he has not played in a single NBA regular season game - that is all kinds of trouble waiting to happen. Richard Jefferson is Richard Jefferson. He will improve this year but not enough to supplant one of the Big 3, which needs to happen. SAM is a great addition but is only one piece to a successful year. Bonner is Bonner and has been injury prone the past two seasons. James Anderson has potential but he is for the future, not now. Anyone else I might have missed is just that, missed.
The A-Train pick: At the end of November the Spurs will be 7-10
At the end of December the Spurs will be 13-19
At the end of January the Spurs will be 20-27
At the end of February the Spurs will be 25-34
At the end of March the Spurs will be 36-39
At the end of April the Spurs will be 40-42
Thus, probably missing the playoffs.
Hey but this is could be just a bad dream..................

Theme: The Space Between
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
December 1st, 2012
About this event
In our society today, there exist gaps between us Malaysians, due to our difference in cultural backgrounds, generations, genders or any number of things that divide us. While these gaps may be cause for miscommunication and conflict, they equally offer us different perspectives of reality, thus adding to the exciting diversity of life.
At this year's TEDxKLWomen, we will hear from our distinguished speakers as they explore those gaps in society vis-à-vis the theme, The Space Between, and what can be or is being done to address them. While the women speakers will approach their subjects through the prism of being a woman in Malaysia today, the men will offer counterbalance views from their perspective as the opposite sex.

Narsi Samii, owner of the former Narsi's Hof Brau restaurant at Santa Rosa's Coddingtown Mall, has lost another round in court, but he says it isn't the end of the story.
A state appellate court in San Francisco last week ruled against Samii, who contended that Indianapolis-based Simon Property Group violated his lease when it forced him to leave the mall last year. The eviction followed more than two years of legal battles.
"This is going to go all the way to the Supreme Court," Samii said. "If it has to go to federal court, it will."
Narsi's Hof Brau opened in the mall in 1983. Court records said Simon estimated that a chain restaurant in the contested space could produce $3 million to $5 million in annual sales, compared to Narsi's revenues of about $1.1 million.
Simon's area marketing director Kim Hall declined comment on the litigation.
The space that formerly housed Narsi's remains vacant, she said, but the shopping center is in discussion with companies interested in the space.

Missing Grain Valley man sought, not seen since Thursday
GRAIN VALLEY, Mo. - An Endangered Person Advisory has been issued for a Grain Valley man who has not been seen since Thursday.
The Grain Valley Police Department and Missouri Highway Patrol have asked the public to be on the lookout for Aubrey W. Haynes, 43.
Haynes is described as being 6-5, 240 pounds and bald with brown eyes, and a dark complexion. He has a dialysis port in his upper right chest. Haynes was last seen wearing a white, lightweight jacket, white T-shirt, gray sweatpants and white tennis shoes.
He has been diagnosed with diabetes and has kidney failure.
Haynes left his Grain Valley home Thursday without taking his necessary medication, and he did not take a change of clothes. Haynes recently lost his job and had an argument with family members, during which he made suicidal statements. Haynes was last seen staggering, possibly due to diabetic issues. His cell phone has been disconnected, and he has known affiliates nationwide.
Haynes was driving a black 2007 Hummer H3 with Missouri license plate CG5U2H. He and the vehicle were last seen around 5 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 17, leaving his residence on Northwest Nicholas Drive in Grain Valley.
Anyone seeing Aubrey Haynes, any associate, or his vehicle, or anyone having any information about the case is asked to dial 911 for the nearest law-enforcement agency, or to call Grain Valley Police at(816) 524-4300.

A federal appeals court has ruled a former employee who cashed out of his 401(k) plan has standing to sue for mismanagement.
The July 31 ruling (PDF) by the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reinstates a class action that claims the plan administrator should not have offered an option to invest retirement benefits solely in the employer's common stock, the Legal Intelligencer reports. The stock price took a dive after a failed merger.
"When determining participant standing under ERISA, the relevant inquiry is whether the plaintiff alleges that his benefit payment was deficient on the day it was paid under the terms of the plan and the statute," Judge Thomas Ambro wrote for the Philadelphia-based court.
The closely watched case attracted amicus briefs from the U.S. Department of Labor and AARP on behalf of the plaintiff as well as briefs from the National Association of Manufacturers for the defendant company.

Fantasia Barrino Giving Birth to Baby Boy
Fantasia's Screaming At Doctors As We Speak
Fantasia Barrino is having a great year (at least, better than last year). In 2011 she swooped up her first Grammy award, landed her first movie role in Mahalia Jackson biopic, and before the year's out, popped out a baby. Well, almost. . .
As RadarOnline today reports, Barrino is currently in labor at the Presbyterian Hospital in Charlotte, North Carolina, having checked in to the hospital yesterday.
The American Idol winner became pregnant by her boyfriend, Antwaun Cook, who is currently still married to his estranged wife, Paula. Controversially, Paula claims Barrino and Cook began an affair together while she and her husband were trying to patch up their marriage.
Read: Fantasia Barrino Outs Haters During Performance
This new baby won't be Barrino's first child, since she has a daughter from a previous relationship. What's more, this won't be her first pregnancy with Cook as, during Cook's divorce proceedings with his ex-wife Paula, Barrino testified that she had aborted one child around the time of her failed suicide attempt last year.
Barrino's second pregnancy however, seems to be a joyous occasion, as a source close to the couple told RadarOnline: "They're excited to be having the baby around the holidays."
Although Barrino wasn't due until December 29, the baby's makes for a nice Christmas gift.

NASHVILLE (WATE) -- Quarterback Nash Nance disappointed Commodore fans when he chose in-state rival Tennessee Wednesday on National Signing Day.
Nance made a verbal commitment to Vanderbilt last year, but chose instead to join wide receiver Da'Rick Rogers, his teammate at Calhoun (Ga.) High School, by signing with the Vols.
The 'Dores also lost out on highly-touted safety Sharrod Golightly from Decatur, Ga. He decommitted earlier in the week and signed a letter of intent Wednesday with South Carolina.
Despite the disappointing losses, Coach Bobby Johnson pulled together a solid class of recruits. Headlining the group is Rajaan Bennett, a Rivals.com five-star running back from Powder Springs, Ga.
Bennett is expected to see plenty of playing time as a freshmen.

Movie News 2013
UPDATED: 28th June 2013
Did you know that the most expensive movie to be created ever is Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds's End? The estimated cost to produce it was $300.000.000! A lot of people watch this movie!
Did you know that the most expensive movie flop in the history is Cutthroat Island (from 1995), total cost was $115.000.000 but it only earned back around $18.500.000! Well we think this movie will soon take the second place now when Brad Pitt's movie World War Z has been released since they have already spent over $200.000.000 just to re-write and re-shoot the FINAL ACT! Talk about wasting money! I'm still gonna watch this movie online though ;)
Did you know that the movie Paranormal Activity only cost $15.000 to create but generated an huge $197.000.000 of gross revenue! Talk about good investment! I don't like horror movies so I haven't seen any of them (there are five)
Big news! It has just been announced that in June 2015 the first movie in a new TERMINATOR trilogy will be released! This is specially awesome since Arnold Schwarzenegger will have a part in it!

D.J. Cooper and Javon McCrea included in CBS Sports Top 100 List
Ohio's D.J. Cooper and Buffalo's Javon McCrea were among the Top 100 players in college basketball in CBS Sports's annual ranking. Cooper, ranked 73rd, is a senior on a loaded Bobcat team poised to repeat their success of last season's Sweet 16 berth. McCrea, ranked 97th, is a junior that will need to step up in a big way this year for the Bulls, who lost four productive seniors to graduation.

Chad Dasher will make his first court appearance Wednesday in Tattnall County.
The Tattnall County Jail escapee had been on the run for three months before being re-captured and arrested in the early morning hours Tuesday. His capture all started overnight Monday in Long County.
Investigators said Dasher went to a home in the Sandhill community of Long County, and that is where officials believe he stole a heavy duty truck.
According to witnesses, Dasher used the truck to strike his wife's car and push it into the home on Woods Lane just off Hwy 123 in Glennville.
"We believe he went there because his wife was there and he went not to confront her, but to let her know he knew she was there," said Long County Sheriff's Deputy Tom Sollosi.
From there, Dasher took off and hid at his family's pond house about ten miles away. Deputies and others surrounded him and captured him around 4 a.m. Tuesday.

Reporter: Lauren Compton
Amherst, VA - Guardians of Central Virginia Training Center residents are still fighting to keep their loved ones there.
This week some CVTC parents filed a third party complaint against the Commonwealth and the Department of Justice. In the complaint guardians are asking for some conditions to be placed in the D-O-J settlement. Among the conditions, parents want their loved ones to receive the same level of care outside the training center if they are discharged. And, parents say they want to have veto power over a discharge orders. The complaint is in response to a federal judge's ruling to allow current training center residents to stay at the training center if they choose.

Are you up to speed on everything with the new offense?
Ford: I didn't watch them practice this spring. I've met coach [Morris] one day. Then he was at a dinner another day. He seems like a nice guy. I have no idea what kind of a football coach he is. He's got a good record of where he's been and all, but nobody cares about that. All they care about is what he'll do at Clemson. Hopefully, he'll have good success.
It's the same kind of offense as Auburn and Oregon. With the kind of pace that they operate at, do you see that as an advantage?
Ford: As long as you make first downs. If you don't make first downs, it's probably the worst thing you can do, because you're keeping the defense on the field all day. Who's to know how they're going to do. He's got to have good people to run it. Anything you run, if you've got good people, you can be successful.
Hopefully, he's got the right people in the right place. And, hopefully, he'll have success with it. But, if they don't, it's going to be a lot of times that they're three-and-out. If they're three-and-out a lot, it puts a whole lot more pressure on the defense.
Do you keep up with any of the recruiting that's going on at Clemson these days?
Ford: No.
So you're not familiar with any of the highly touted kids they have coming in this summer?
Ford: Most of them can't play. It's usually the other guys that play. It was for us. The highly touted ones, they come in and make noise in high school, and a lot of them don't pan out. The guys that weren't recruited as high, they come out, know how to work, don't expect anything but work. We had just as much luck on kids that wanted to play for Clemson. Hopefully, these guys can play. Pro people spend as much money as they do on scouting, can work them out, and still miss on a number one draft choice. Colleges are going to miss on them- not just Clemson- but anybody. Maybe they can play. (I) surely hope so.
Heading into year three under Dabo Swinney, do you have a quick evaluation where things stand with the program?
Ford: I was talking to somebody else yesterday and I've got to talk to somebody else tomorrow, they've got to win championships. That's it. They just need to win some conference championships in football. It's been a long time.
Clemson people support them very well. They give a lot of money. They've got a lot of things going for them. They're recruiting well, playing well, have good coaches, they've got all the facilities in the world they need, supposedly all the good recruits, so I think people are just about ready for them to win a championship. They do that and they'll get into the national picture. That's where everybody would like for Clemson to be.
With all of the things that you mentioned, is it kind of surprising that it's been 20 years since Clemson won an ACC Championship?
Ford: I believe you'd be better off asking the Clemson people that, because I think they should compete for it every year. Our people worked--and I don't mean it against any coach or player--but our people worked awful hard to establish something at Clemson. Our players worked hard, practiced hard, our coaches worked hard. They made some things that happened at Clemson…they take a great amount of pride in something they established. And they'd like to see the tradition continued, and we would, too.
I hope they can do it. I hope they can do it next year. Why shouldn't they? That's the way I would ask your question. Why shouldn't they? They've got a better chance than Wake Forest? Wake Forest won one. They've got just as good a chance as Georgia Tech, right? Georgia Tech won one. You would like to see them do that. I can't say. People think I'm down. I'm not down on any of them. I hope they do well. I'm pulling like crazy for them, but that is what the expectation of Clemson should be. If it's not, I wouldn't want to fool with it. I really wouldn't want to fool with it. Our ex-players, I don't think would want to fool with it, because they worked hard to establish that situation. We'd like to see them go undefeated and beat the devil out of everybody.
How's your relationship with coach Swinney?
Ford: He's a good guy, a really fine ambassador for the school. He's a very enthusiastic person- good graduation rate. But, they've got to win a championship. That's just the way it is. You can be a mean, old sorry devil and everything else, do everything different. If you win championships, they'll still like you. I think it's all about winning. It's always about winning.
You kind of helped foster that feeling of all 'about winning' at Clemson. What does that mean to you? There are a lot of people that are still big fans of you.
Ford: I think they're fans of winning. I've got a lot of friends that support Clemson, that went to Clemson- a lot of great players and a lot of great coaches. That's my loyalty, my ex-players, my ex-players and all of my friends who supported us at Clemson, and all our friends who still like us. I've got a lot of different schools.
You've got the 30th anniversary of the national championship team coming up. What does it mean to you and your coaches and players from the 1981 team that's going to be recognized this fall?
Ford: We get to see their kids, a bunch of our coaches. We've lost two coaches off of that team. We've lost probably a player or two. Thirty years is a long time. I'm glad the school does it. I'm glad they'll recognize us. I know it'll be a great time. I'm looking forward to seeing them. The last time [we got together], I think when we played Florida State. We left at halftime. It was a good game, but we went to the house, just to watch it at our house, to get the coaches there and talk. We did that. I look forward to it.

You all want drama...how bout our own little soap opera down in Springfield?
Now that I have your attention, there is no way that the Rolen/TLR mess goes all the way to the last week in March. Right?
More importantly, however, is that the big club IS coming back to face the SCards. I didn't want to completely steal Fritz's idea, so I will only share in the VEB meet-and-greet glory.
I am all for traveling up for a game at BIII, but my wallet may have other ideas. I am relatively new to the Joplin area, but I did hit up a couple of Springfield games last year. Not only was the team fun to watch, but there is tons of room out on the grass. This is perfect for a two reasons.
With the big club coming up for two games, there is an opportunity for us to get together for cheaper and a closer-knit atmosphere. Anyone interested in bringing a lawn chair and hanging out at the nicest minor-league park I have seen?

NORTHFIELD - Where we found out how many flu shots are left,
and what to do if you've got the flu and haven't gotten the shot.
Bunting Pharmacy in Northfield said that last week alone over
200 customers got the flu shot, way more than in past seasons.
Owner Joe Bunting said that there's not many doses left, and
that waiting for stocks to replenish may not be something to hope for, as the
centers for disease control and prevention is already preparing for next flu
But if you get the flu and haven't gotten the shot, you can
still seriously shorten the time spent being sick, and mitigate the symptoms by
taking Tamiflu.
Once speaking to your doctor and getting the prescription
written, Tamilflu is taken twice per day for five days.
It can also be taken once a day as a preventative measure
against the flu, also with a prescription.
Bunting also recommends over the counter solutions such as Tylenol,
Robitussin and cough drops to help mitigate symptoms and help you to get rest.

The names represented in this article are just the "known" political prisoners and no disrespect to any brothas and sistas left off the list. The purpose of the list is to illustrate the current plight of our movement's political prisoners, who, despite surviving countless hostile encounters with the state's security forces, are on the verge of succumbing to old age and infirmities behind the walls and gun towers of the empire's Prison Industrial Complex.

Russell Maroon Shoatz is out of solitary confinement! Hugo Pinnell had his first contact visit in 40 years last weekend. Kiilu Nyasha announced this wonderful news at a reception following the second public hearing on solitary confinement called by Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, Feb. 11.
February 20, 2014
"My talk with Maroon today was very moving. There are no words to adequately convey the significance of his release to the general population for him and his family. This is a significant victory for a growing people's movement against solitary confinement and the human rights violations inherent in mass incarceration. If we continue to work hard and support one another in this movement, these victories could very well become a habit."

I am recovering from a huge blow – my computer was taken along with other personal irreplaceable items. We stopped by Loon Point to visit the shore before driving back to the San Francisco Bay Area Jan. 30. It was early, we'd just finished our first session of the Winter Quarter. We left our luggage in view in our cohort's car. In Oakland, we'd not have done that, but somehow the seashore, mountains and quiet terrain deceptively seduced us.
October 18, 2013
The Free Russell Maroon Shoatz website describes him this way: "Russell Maroon Shoatz is a dedicated community activist, founding member of the Black Unity Council, former member of the Black Panther Party and soldier in the Black Liberation Army. He is serving multiple life sentences as a U.S.-held prisoner of war." Shoatz has been locked in solitary confinement at various state prisons for the past 22 years, 28 of the past 30 years.

Even before I began my political journey in 2001, I maintained certain principles – a variety of things I just don't do. And usually, if ever I deviated from those principles, even in error, I'd end up in a tangle of trouble. February 2013 was an ordeal. I broke some of my rules and things got ugly. What happened is yet another experience that those who blindly trust the system – and those who don't – need to know about.
February 7, 2013
Since America's MASS INCARCERATION is driven by unjust racial/class policies, then the real solution to MASS INCARCERATION is MASS "DECARCERATION." In other words, drastic cuts to ALL prisoner's TIME, since TIME is the currency, the legal tender, the great equalizer and righter of wrongs in prison.
January 18, 2013
You may think that you know something about solitary, but you don't. You may have a loved one in prison who has experienced it and told you about it. But still I say, you don't know it. For, as you know the word torture, you don't know how it feels. For solitary is torture. State torture. Official torture. Government sanctioned torture.

Aoki NEVER was an agent. The over-emphasis upon Aoki providing the Panthers their first firearms is sensationalist fodder. What is conveniently ignored is what he contributed most to the Panthers and to the legacy of the U.S. revolutionary movement: promoting revolutionary study, ideology and disciplined organization. That's why he was field marshal – because the cat could organize and tolerated no indiscipline and lack of seriousness. To the end of his life, Aoki could go toe-to-toe with any intellectual, theorist or organizer on the complexities and challenges of revolutionary theory.

Most people do not know enough about the Black Panther Party, which was founded at Merritt College in Oakland in October of 1966 by Minister of Defense Huey P. Newton and Chairman Bobby Seale. This happening is important to Black history nationally and worldwide because the Panthers were and are an example of Black people fighting for self-determination no matter the cost.

On Monday, Feb. 20, over a dozen rallies will be held throughout the U.S. for a "National Occupy Day in Support of Prisoners."

I can't come down either way in this argument. It does seem a strange coincidence that every psycho kid gun maniac also seemed to be a player of counter strike style games.
Maybe those games simply attract unstable suicidal children. I have no idea but, I'm also not going to blindly defend our industry without knowing for sure either way.
|Shaun Greene
Or just take in to account how prolific "video games such as Valve's Counter-Strike" have become (I'm assuming they mean any realistic FPS). How many 17 year old boys are out there that DON'T like to play these games? Or watch action movies? It's almost like linking violence and eating- I can guarantee there is a massive correlation between violent crime committing teens and teens who eat at least one meal a day.
Correlation is not causality.
|Ben Hopper
Definitely a knee-jerk, illogical reaction to a tragedy. Mike Wallis is right. Violent crime existed long before violent video games were around. The kid who committed the crime was obviously a disturbed individual. I don't think video games made him that way.
Well there really isn't anywhere these kinds of people can go to get some help. They say what they're thinking and they'll just be put in a nut house and medicated forever. They know that, and some of them are fine with it, but others are unwilling to submit themselves to that. Think of how many suicides there are, all of those are potential shootings. Some people think there is no point in killing themselves if they don't leave some kind of mark while others are fine with simply ending themselves alone. By killing others and bringing attention to the ordeal they are showing their frustration and anger in the only way they can. Simply killing themselves alone accomplishes nothing because they are immediately forgotten, but if they take others with them then they will live on like VT shootings or Columbine. That is simply the way humans think, all humans, disturbed or not. People want to accumulate things, and among those things is notoriety, fame, or success. Many of you go on everyday to work and raise a family so that your bloodline will live on, you will live on through your family. They will grow old and tell their children about how good grandpa was. It is all the same idea just a bit more twisted. There is no true help available out there and that is the problem, not video games. The only true help for someone facing a problem like this would be to give their life worth, and locking them in a nut house with mass amounts of medication isn't giving their life worth. If people like this could come forward knowing that they would be treated equally as others and not treated crazy then they'd be more inclined to come forward in a more rational way.

The opinions on this band are pretty much split. People either love or hate them. I've seen them live, and they are a great live band. That said, this album is lacking, like the other two.
We get it, you love Metallica. Even though the previous album had too much core to be good for it, at least they combined core and thrash riffing/soloing, which was an interesting combo. Here, though, they're trying to bring back Bay Area Thrash and totally lose the core, but they don't manage either. Most of the time Heafy sounds like a cheap Hetfield imitation, and the rest of the time he's utterly forgettable. It's great that he's stopped the outright core singing, but he can't quite get over it. A lot of the choruses would fit on Ascendancy. The solos are good and more fitting than on Ascendancy but too short (I think another reviewer mentioned that). A lot of the riffs are thrashy and bring to mind Bay Area, but they're not distinctive enough. I listened to this album at least five times, and I honestly can't remember any one riff to distinguish the songs. The lyrics are pretty godawful most of the time, but there are plenty of bands that have idiotic lyrics but still incredible albums (Priest comes to mind). The drumming in the previous album was one of the better parts: on here, it's pretty generic and forgettable. In the tradition of Ascendancy, there's one terrible song on here (This World Can't Tear Us Apart) that seems designed for radio play. The rest are nice to listen to, at least the instrumentation, but aren't memorable and don't expand any musical territory at all.
Speaking of instrumentation: the last track. There are plenty of bands that could pull of instrumental tracks if they tried. Some of the songs on Ascendancy would've been better without vocals. This one, though, doesn't work. It's just a riff collection. There are plenty of nice riffs, but they don't flow together at all. This is a great example of how not to do a great instrumental. For opposite examples, see Upcoming Devastation by Destruction, Inquisition Symphony by Sepultura, Call of Ktulu by Metallica, Cosmic Sea by Death (a little more experimental but still illustrates the point), etc. These are how instrumentals should sound – coherent songs that develop ideas they present, just lacking vocals.
I spent a lot of time talking about what's wrong with this album. Even so, there's more good than bad here. Even if the band isn't doing anything new, it's nice that they're bringing back some of the Bay Area sound. If nothing else, kids that hear this may check out classic Metallica, Megadeth, Exodus, Overkill, etc, and it will have done some good. It definitely doesn't deserve all the hype from magazines and such, and these guys aren't the saviors of metal. It's a fun album to listen to, but lacks anything to really set it apart.

I just bought tickets for Next Thursday 7:30 pm prime time game vs Pitt on stub hub (Thank you Santa for the $50 stub hub gift certificate). Nothing like getting a great deal to hopefully watch a good game. Without Ryan Strome now.
I hope I get off work at 7pm, to make it for puck drop. Maybe intermission or something.
Might be able to tailgate if I get off work at 5pm
Let me know if your attending.

That the Glazer family finally decides now is time to get the hell out of town, launches a second wave of stock offering, this time a full sale with full voting rights. It'll give supporters the chance to grab a slice of ownership and a real say in the running of our club. Chances of it actually happening: virtually zero. On the pitch I hope somebody emerges from the midfield black hole to become Paul Scholes' successor. It's patently obvious that Sir Alex Ferguson isn't going to sign a 'proper' central midfielder – Shinji Kagawa, fine player though he is, does his best work far further forward. It's anathama, Sir Alex' mental roadblock on the position, and surely a massive strategic error. There's little faith thatAndersonwill buck five years of history to become both fit and consistent. But Tom Cleverley might just do it. Has to stay injury-free though.
If ownership change and midfield are the biggest hopes, then they are the biggest fears too. The New York IPO may well have entrenched the Glazers longer still having staved off whatever desperate need they had for short-term cash. The voting structure and registration in the Cayman Islands means we'll have less information than ever about the club's management. Meanwhile, Sir Alex, who is actually emboldened by the Glazers aloof management, will continue to drive a wedge between him and the supporters. On the pitch – no matter how many great attacking players United has if there's no base in midfield,Ferguson's side will struggle against the very best. Perhaps Robin van Persie's excellent conversion rate will make the difference when his side is on the back foot. But there's a very good chance United will struggle to gain a foothold in some games.
Well it's obvious that Wayne Rooney and van Persie need to have big seasons for United to do well, but let's hope Cleverley emerges as a 'United player' of the very highest order. He's a young lad with all the right skills and there's much to admire in how well – and quickly – he recycles possession. There's doubts about his fitness of course, but if that can be solved – or better luck comes his way – then this could well be the midfielders breakthrough season for club and country.
Paul Scholes. It's hard to say but there are real signs that the Ginger Price, the midfield genius, the finest player of his generation, will have a campaign to forget. Before a ball is kicked, Scholes has looked a little drained from pre-season. Sure, he's still 'got it' on the ball, but Scholes look knackered towards the back end of last season – and that was from just five months in the first team. Should Cleverley, Fletcher and Anderson struggle for fitness again, Scholes may well be needed more than the 25 games Sir Alex has predicted. Then comes real trouble. Let's hope a legacy isn't tarnished.
Yaya Toure. There are so many good players everywhere in the Premier League, but given the above comments on midfield then City's powerhouse has to be first choice. What a player he is – so much more than simply the water carrier so many billed him as. A great defender, a great attacker and a great leader. Arguably the finest all-round midfielder in the Premier League since Roy Keane. £24 million – the cost of Ashley Young and Bebe.
(4-2-3-1) De Gea; Rafael, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra; Cleverley, Carrick; Nani, Rooney, Kagawa; van Persie - it's a bit of a fudge because everything I've seen of Kagawa tells me he's a far superior player 'in the hole' than he is playing from the left. But Nani is 25 per cent better on the right than the left, and both players are intelligent enough to provide the kind of flexible front line that was so exciting back in 2008.
Well, my prediction on this week's podcast was second so I'll stick with that. Much depends on the last couple of week's in the transfer window. If City don't manage to offload a few players and bring in an extra midfielder then Roberto Mancini's side hasn't progressed over the summer. Should United remain injury-free, Cleverley emerge as a contender in midfield, and van Persie hit the ground running… the title is, of course, a possibility for the Reds.
Knock out stages, but no more than that. Sorry to harp on about midfield, but there isn't a game won inEuropethat isn't all about the centre of the pitch.Fergusonwill compromise by bringing in another midfielder, forcing Rooney out of position. Arguably the finest player in the league – and he'll end up on the left wing.
The Scouse mafia in the media will laud Liverpool as the finest side in the land after the first 15 minutes of Brendan Rodgers' tiki-taka, but there'll still be no trophies. Arsene Wenger's side will flatter to deceive once again, and finish pot-less, and Chelsea will progress into the top four on the wave of some outstanding attacking, but dodgy defending.
We click up top and return to the swashbuckling days of yore.
We suffer another 6-1 or blow it in the smallest margin again.
Antonio Valencia – the boy doesn't know the meaning of the word 'fail'
Disappoint is an unfair phrase but feel Cleverley will disappoint however well he does due to expectations of him being centre mid saviour.
Alex Song – would be perfect in our midfield but not sure Arsene would sell us another one.
(4-2-3-1) De Gea, Smalling, Evans, Vidic, Evra, Carrick, Cleverley, Rooney, Kagawa, Valencia, RVP.
With the signing of Van Persie I think we'll sneak the league title this year.
Semi finals would be a good effort depending on who we face.
Big Sam, Steve Clarke sacked. Another player 'drama' at City and Liverpool to no doubt be the victims of an injustice at some point.
The Premier League is our bread and butter and the priority must be to reassert our dominance on our own patch. I think that means not only reclaiming the Premier League but doing so emphatically, playing with freedom, pace and width. I'd also love an FA Cup win, we have won only one since 1999 (in 2004), which is very disappointing for a club with our stature and heritage, and I'd like Sir Alex to start taking it a little more seriously.
Another Champions League embarrassment. As it happens, I don't think it was a case of United not being good enough in last year's group stage, more a case of complacency both from the manager in his team selection and the players in thinking they could stroll through. I hope those lessons have been learned, and, with the new additions, we could go quite far this year.
Tom Cleverley is such an intelligent player, such a Manchester United youth product. By that, I mean he injects pace into play, passes and moves, plays the game in his brain and has a great awareness of space. He does seem to be a little brittle, and last season Cleverley was blighted by injuries after a terrific start and then he struggled to regain his form when he returned at the end of the season. But his form for Team GB at the Olympics and for England v Italy has been encouraging and I expect him to be really impressive this season. Kagawa and van Persie will be great I think, while Scholes and Giggs will continue to be a help rather than a hindrance.
Anderson must surely be in last-chance saloon territory now, you can't get away with being this ineffective for so long, surely. Other than that, David de Gea has to improve from last year, he made too many errors and only really came good in the last three months of the season. That was understandable, as a young player coming to a foreign country with the pressure of replacing Van der Sar but it's got to be more assured from the Spaniard for United to reclaim the title this season. Rafael must also improve his concentration and positioning in key spells of matches.
Yohan Cabaye is one of my favourite players and he would be a smashing addition to the midfield. He is a wonderful passer and not afraid of a tough challenge. Classy.
(4-2-3-1) De Gea – Rafael Smalling Vidic Evra – Cleverley Carrick – Nani Rooney Kagawa – Van Persie
1st. Only Manchester United and Chelsea have retained the title in the Premier League title which tells you just how difficult it is, and City may well find that out. It is telling that even Arsenal's Invincibles couldn't achieve the feat. It will be nice to see a run-in where both United and City still have the latter stages Champions League to consider, because last year all the eggs and intensity were very much in one basket from February to May, hence the high points tallies.
Certainly the latter stages, and, with the firepower at our disposal, plus the expected development of de Gea, Rafael, Smalling, Jones, Cleverley, Welbeck etc, I will say United will win the Champions League this season.
Torres and Tevez to have much improved seasons and both should reach at least 20 goals.
Chicharito to score late winning goals/equalisers 'a la' Solskjaer in a few games.
Swansea, Norwich and Southampton to be relegated. (but Stoke will come mighty close)
QPR, Everton and Newcastle to have strong top-half finishes.
Sir Alex Ferguson to retire at the end of the season.
That it works. That the mouth-watering prospect of Kagawa, Rooney and Van Persie works. And there's Valencia, and Wellbeck, and Hernandez, and Nani. In theory it's all there in quantity and quality for every eventuality – and it's bloody exciting. Much like a dodgy late night cocktail it's extremely fluid with the potential to knock you out.
That the embarrassment of riches in attack isn't balanced out by the fragility of our midfield options. United's current squad list reads like Jessica Rabbit's vital statistics: overflowing upfront, plenty at the back, but worryingly thin in the middle. The first choice options don't seem too shabby – Carrick and Cleverley look like a great combination, with Scholesy blessing us with his presence whenever possible. But beyond that, we're about as well stocked as a supermodel's bingo wing.
Kagawa. I've been raving about him to anyone who'd listen for ages. There's certain players you just fall in love with, like Bergkamp or Baggio or Laudrup, but they never join your club. But Kagawa has. He's such a joy to watch with his wonderful vision and technique. And I honestly believe he can be a catalyst for other players and our style of play. If he can hit it off with Cleverley for instance, with his clever one touch passing and movement, it could be a joy to behold.
It's a difficult one because a) I don't want to be pessimistic going into a packet-fresh new season, and b) anyone I mention won't be a disappointment because it won't be a surprise. I know he's scored goals and done okay, but I don't know what a player like Ashley Young is doing at United. He leaves me cold. And Anderson. Football is what he does between meals. Part of me wonders whether he's replaced Fred the Red as the club mascot – a large smiley non-footballer paid to act the fool around the first team.
You don't need to ask. We all know who he is and who he plays for. Massive.
De Gea / Rafael Ferdinand Vidic Evra / Carrick Cleverley / Kagawa / Rooney Van Persie …but there's no wingers! Oh I don't know! Not my problem!
Champions. I can't help but start a season full of giddy optimism.
I'm not that giddy. Quarter-finals. Semis at a stretch. As long as we win the league, Europe can wait.
In terms of United fans, love will tear us apart (again).
Europe is the biggest price in club. A moron who say Europe must wait because of the premier league is mad. All top teams compete for the continental trophy.

I couldn't say that I found CrossFit, but that CrossFit found me after 26 years. I'd spent my whole life challenging myself with everything from doing back flips in my football pads, to climbing every tree in my backyard to jumping off 50 ft. cliffs. Random athletic pursuits led me to being a multi-sport athlete through high school and eventually a starting middle linebacker on the University of Utah Fiesta Bowl team in 2004. After college, with no athletics to keep me occupied, I harnessed my energy by pursuing Tae Kwon Do, coaching youth sports, and framing houses (the only job that allowed me to walk 5 inch wide planks 20 feet off the ground on a regular basis).
In 2008 my entire view of fitness and being "fit" was challenged the minute I heard about CrossFit workouts. I went out later that week and did my first CrossFit workout and was humbled to say the least. Since then I have redefined my perception of fitness, completely changed my eating habits, and passionately pursued a well rounded, more inclusive kind of fitness. CrossFit has allowed me to excel in the things I'm good at, like weightlifting, and become competent at the things I used to be terrible at, like distance running and bodyweight exercises. Now in my 30s, I am stronger than when I was playing college football, yet my endurance is the best it's ever been and my overall fitness is the best it's ever been. I have two beautiful, young children and I'm sure I will be able to "keep up" with them well into their adulthood!
My favorite part of CrossFit is helping other people see their lives drastically improved by getting plugged into the right gym. At Ute CrossFit, I strive to create an atmosphere of hard work, camaraderie, and success. We have no mirrors, no egos, and no empty promises. Our only guarantee is that your results will be well earned by your hard work.
