Part Uno
Alright here it is – your shot to prove your NFL CRYSTAL BALL is clear as an autumn sky, to prove you KNOW not only the Tampa Bay Buccaneers , the NFL, and what's going to happen in the 2012-2013 season – but that you are man (or woman) of mettle.

--You have a week (Till the following Monday at 11:59PM EST) to answer that set of 20 questions (I can't write answers to all 100 questions at the end that would be goofy). The following week look for a new post on the Great Predictilator & Buc Prognosticator.

--You may change your answer at any time prior to the following Monday (but please post it as a reply to yourself)
--I will post updated standings at the conclusion of the pre-season and every few weeks in the regular season (but on a Wednesday so it's not interfering in games – the same reason I'm starting on a Monday….gives us a few days to discuss the pre-season games then something to entertain during the wait).
Upcoming Issues:
8/13 : NFC & AFC North
8/20 : NFC & AFC East
8/27: NFC & AFC South
So Will you be the Great Predictilator? Or will you prove that you don't know a buccing thing?

Journey to mediocrity
'The Hundred-Foot Journey' fails to capitalize on tasty concept
The Hundred-Foot Journey is a curious little Romeo and Juliet of a film. A family, forced out of their native India, begins a trek across Europe.
The family's sole mode of transportation sputters and dies in a sleepy little French town, but the town's food culture is high, and that's a perfect place for a family of restaurateurs to settle down. There's only one problem – the family's rustic "Maison Mumbai" is right across the street (a hundred feet away, if the title didn't clue you in) from a prestigious French bistro with a Michelin star, run with an iron fist by the dreaded Madame Mallory (Helen Mirren, pictured).
It's here that a particular Romeo and Juliet story begins to develop, with Hassan (Manish Dayal) on the Indian side and Marguerite (Charlotte Le Bon) on the French side. > Read more.

Short Pump brewery offers more than just beer
I am still (happily) thinking about my entire experience at Rock Bottom Restaurant and Brewery last week. Knowing nothing about this new brewery out of Denver, I was leery of brew-pub in the heart of Short Pump Town Center – this is not what I'd usually think of as a perfect fit, and yet, it was.
The restaurant and craft brewery opened in early June and features 10 beers made by female brewmaster Becky Hammond (pictured). This is the restaurant's second location in Virginia; the first is in Arlington. Behind glass walls, customers watched the beer brewing in massive steel barrels. For our up-and-coming beer region, it makes sense that Short Pump would jump on board.
As I walked up to the back of the mall near the comedy club, I was taken aback by what I saw: at the top of the stairs was an overflowing restaurant with outdoor seating, large umbrellas and dangling outdoor lights. > Read more.

"He's Jealous of My Success"
The Counselor's TurnTicking Time Bombs
"At first, Sharon and Seth were like two snarling lions. What they had initially assumed would be a temporary role-reversal had, over the years, become permanent, triggering major upheavals and agonizing bouts of self-reflection about responsibilities and expectations. These two had been arguing for so long, they rarely spoke civilly to each other. What's more, though they were struggling with division of labor issues that confront all working parents, they had never actually sat down, discussed their problems and tried to hammer out a solution that made sense for both of them.
"However, before they could even begin to discuss practical issues, Sharon and Seth had to learn to control their anger so every conversation wouldn't deteriorate into a shouting match. Sharon had to understand how important it was to take the time to view issues from her husband's perspective, instead of marching into the house like a drill sergeant issuing orders. What's more, though Sharon liked to think she was handling the discrepancy in their income in a caring fashion, the reality was that many times she treated Seth like a second-class citizen. She had to curb her hurtful outbursts, and also to say a simple "I'm sorry" when words she regretted slipped out.
"Whereas Sharon was a get-it-off-your-chest kind of person, Seth was a time bomb, holding onto his hurts until his anger exploded. Instead of making his own needs and concerns clear, Seth spent most of the time defending himself against Sharon's criticism. Shy and lacking in self-confidence, he nevertheless had an inner resilience that neither he, nor his wife, appreciated. In time, Seth shored up his sense of self-worth, developed confidence in the decisions he was making and began to feel good about the choices he had made. Many men would have been swamped by the business failure that Seth had managed to use as a springboard for a new, rewarding life.

By Jade Bulecza - bio | email VALDOSTA, GA (WALB) –Two siblings, separated when their family split more than 50 years ago are back together Friday night .
James Allen and Dianna Carter were split up as young children.
For several years, Allen worked to track down his sister.
James Allen and his long lost sister Dianna Carter hug for the first time at the Valdosta Regional Airport. Allen had no idea his sister was coming to visit or why his family brought him to the airport.
"I said who could be coming on a plane?" asked Allen.
"The moment I saw him it was a connection," said Carter.
Their parents separated in the 1950's and Carter was adopted by her aunt and Allen was adopted by another family. Fanni Lou Cartledge was their mother.
"Alot of years, she cried," said Carter. "She was sad and she was just hurt it was a sad feeling for her so it's peace in my heart. It's joy and it's overwhelming."
"I look at it like this, God is good," said Allen.
The Cartledge family, and the Allen family all came together for the first time this week. When Allen's family researched on www.ancestors.com they first came across Calvin Cartledge, Fanni Lou's brother and asked him about the family history and Friday, he's here from New York.
"I'm just overjoyed to meet him he looks just like my brother my brother wear a cap like that same way," said Cartledge.
Allen's wife Rachel who just passed away Sunday, his sister-in-law Juanita Burkes and a family friend did much of the research to bring the siblings together.
And Allen says even though he's lost his wife, he's gained a sister he thought he'd never find.
Professional Boxer Floyd Mayweather, Junior is James Allen and Dianna Carter's nephew.

Boost Good Sales Into Great Ones With Collaboration
Good post from destinationCRM.com about the advantages of leveraging teamwork and fostering a culture of collaboration among employees.
Sales organizations that foster a culture of collaboration are increasingly gaining a competitive edge over those that keep sales activities siloed.
This was a key finding from "The Growing Gap Between Good and Great," the latest sales best practices study published by Miller Heiman Research Institute. After a survey of 1,100 sales professionals, the institute determined that world-class sales organizations share three key attributes: The customer is at the core of the business; there is a culture of collaboration; and organizations are calibrated for success or know the reasons they are successful.

Great Britain's hopes for a medal in football have been dashed at the quarter-final stage after South Korea won 5-4 on penalties after a 1-1 draw. Daniel Sturridge missed the deciding penalty kick, with his penalty saved by substitute goal-keeper Lee Bum-Young, proving once again, that stutter run ups in penalties are dumb. After that, Celtic's Ki Sung-Yeung stepped up and smashed his penalty into the top of the goal to send South Korea into the semi-finals and, at least, the bronze-medal match.
South Korea dominated the initial proceedings, with their high-pressure game wreaking havoc on Great Britain's passing game. The pressure and rutted pitch made the British passing suffer, and they looked extremely flat compared to South Korea. A couple of long shots, though, was South Korea's only result from their dominance until Ji Dong-won's 29th minute hard hit shot went through Jack Butland. The chance came after Ki Sung-yueng's brilliant side footed layoff, and was a well deserved lead.
Great Britain, though, immediately responded, with a nice combination between Aaron Ramsey, Craig Bellamy and Sturridge showing things to come. One minute later, Britain had a chance to equalise, after Ryan Bertrand's shot hit the arm of a sliding Oh Jaesuk to give Britain a penalty. Aaron Ramsey stepped up and scored his penalty, despite the fact that it went under the hand of Jung Sungryoung. 4 minutes later, in the 39th minute, Britain had another penalty, with Daniel Sturridge tripped in the penalty box trying to control Scott Sinclair's through pass. This time, Ramsey didn't score, with Jung going right and saving Ramsey's hard-hit but low penalty.
Britain, though, were starting to dominate, and continued to do so in the second half. Their three v two advantage in the midfield started to tell, with Ramsey dictating play and spreading the ball wide to the wide areas, especially to Craig Bellamy, where Britain were dominant. From that combination, a glorious chance was created in the 48th minute; Bellamy's cross just evaded the toe of Tom Cleverley after he made a run into the 6 yard box. Cleverley lookd very frustrated with himself, and he should've scored.
7 minutes later, a scary collision between Micah Richards and Jung saw both come off with injury, with Craig Dawson replacing Richards. That, though, didn't change Britain's dominance, although Ji had a glorious chance late in normal time, but headed wide of goal. Britain had better chances, with Daniel Sturridge's flicked shot parried before Craig Dawson fired a long shot from thirty yards that was heading in until Kim Younggwon stuck his face into the shot, sending it over the bar.
Britain, though, couldn't create anything else, and extra time beckoned. Both sides had good chances in the early stages, but the match descended into South Korea sitting deep and Britain hitting long diagonals for substitute Danny Rose, to no effect.
The match would be decided on penalties, and the first four from each side were impressively made, until Sturridge had his penalty saved, sending Britain out earlier than they should've been.
South Korea will face Brazil in the semi-final on Tuesday, while Britain's players, such as Ryan Giggs, Sturridge, Steven Caulker, Craig Bellamy and Aaron Ramsey will get a short layoff before the Premier League season starts in two-weeks.

After a midweek round of matches where Bayern Munich increased their lead atop the Bundesliga with an easy win in Freiburg, they'll play host to Borussia Dortmund in the biggest match of the season to date.
Friday, November 30
Fortuna Düsseldorf vs Eintracht Frankfurt - 20:30 CET / 2:30 PM ET
After picking up a massive point on the road against Borussia Dortmund, Fortuna Düsseldorf return home with 5th place Eintracht Frankfurt coming to town. Düsseldorf have fallen in the table down to 15th just three points out of the relegation zone. Another point against a top team in the division would be a huge confidence booster with two matches remaining before the winter break. After a blistering start, Frankfurt have cooled in recent weeks including a big defeat at home against Mainz midweek. Picking up three points on the road against Düsseldorf will re-establish some confidence before matches against Bremen and Wolfsburg to end the first half of the season.
Prediction: Fortuna Düsseldorf 0 - 2 Eintracht Frankfurt
Saturday, December 1
Schalke vs Borussia Mönchengladbach - 15:30 CET / 9:30 AM ET
Schalke are winless in their last three matches and will be hoping a victory over visiting Borussia Mönchengladbach is in the cards for Saturday. They've struggled scoring goals in that period with only two goals on their account. They should find the back of the net this weekend against Gladbach, but it depends on getting Klaas Jan Huntelaar into the attack early and often. For Gladbach, it's about being solid at the back early in the match to build confidence as they move forward.
Prediction: Schalke 2 - 0 Borussia Mönchengladbach
Bayer Leverkusen vs Nürnberg - 15:30 CET / 9:30 AM ET
Bayer Leverkusen have quietly moved into second place in the table in recent weeks with some impressive results including wins over Bayern Munich and Schalke. They'll host a Nürnberg side this weekend that won for the first time in eleven matches. This Leverkusen side is too strong and playing too well to drop points at home against Nürnberg.
Prediction: Bayer Leverkusen 3 - 0 Nürnberg
Mainz vs Hannover - 15:30 CET / 9:30 AM ET
Mainz came away with a huge win midweek away to Eintracht Frankfurt giving the Eagles their first home loss of the season. Thomas Tuchel has been building a strong side that has been one of the better defensive sides in the league this season. The big surprise in their win in Frankfurt was the emergence of Shawn Parker. The German-American was fantastic picking up a goal and an assist. Hannover picked up a win over lowly Greuther Fürth the other day. Meh.
Prediction: Mainz 2 - 2 Hannover
Augsburg vs Freiburg - 15:30 CET / 9:30 AM ET
They ran into the buzzsaw that is Bayern Munich midweek, but Freiburg will beat Augsburg this weekend.
Prediction: Augsburg 0 - 2 Freiburg
Greuther Fürth vs Stuttgart - 15:30 CET / 9:30 AM ET
This is the match I'm not watching. Fürth is awful, and Stuttgart has let me down beyond belief this year. DO NOT DISAPPOINT ME AGAIN, STUTTGART!
Prediction: Greuther Fürth 0 - 1 Stuttgart
Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund - 18:30 CET / 12:30 PM ET
Bayern Munich are now 11 points ahead of Borussia Dortmund in the table. If the Bavarians are victorious this weekend, the lead is 14 points, and you can write BVB's championship aspirations completely off. Bayern have been flying high with 12 wins in 14 matches this season. BVB have seen their struggles including over the weekend when they dropped points at home against Fortuna Düsseldorf. This is a statement match for Bayern who are coming off of two seasons without a trophy of any sort. Both sides are healthy, and this should be an amazing match.
Prediction: Bayern Munich 2 - 1 Borussia Dortmund
Sunday, December 2
Hoffenheim vs Werder Bremen - 15:30 CET / 9:30 AM ET
I'd ask Hoffenheim fans what it feels like to be so awful, but they don't really exist. You're scoring a good amount of goals, but you're conceding goals out the wazoo. Werder Bremen is the better side and have the players to prove it. Nils Petersen is turning into a Bundesliga-quality striker on loan from Bayern this season, and Kevin De Bruyne has been growing into his role on loan from Chelsea. The big surprise is the play of Aaron Hunt. The midfielder has 6 goals and 3 assists to his name thus far. The issue remains defense. They were ripped by Leverkusen this weekend, but they should have an easier time with Hoffenheim this weekend.
Prediction: Hoffenheim 0 - 2 Werder Bremen
Wolfsburg vs Hamburg - 17:30 CET / 11:30 AM ET
Bas Dost and Diego have been trying to lift this Wolfsburg side back up the table, but they've had no luck. Mainly because they're not very good defensively. Hamburg completely surprised me midweek with their victory over Schalke while missing Rafael Van der Vaart and Heung-Min Son. I'm a big, big fan of their young Latvian forward Artjoms Rudnevs. I think they'll manage to pip a goal and take all three points.
Prediction: Wolfsburg 0 - 1 Hamburg

A ribbon-cutting on the future of the Capital Region was held Monday. It was all about Nano-Fab East, a new $150 million building at the NanoTech Complex near Washington Avenue Extension and Fuller Road in Albany.
UAlbany and IBM announced the $1 billion investment that promises 600 new jobs created over the course of five years.
The cutting was seen as a symbol of a major investment at the UAlbany NanoTech Campus and in the Capital Region.
"I'm proud to announce today that IBM will continue its R & D here at the College of [Nanoscale] Science and Engineering into the middle of the next decade to 2013," said Dr. John Kelly of IBM.
"The companies that are part of this expansion, and are investing here, are the world's leaders in nanotechnology," said UAlbany College of Nanoscale Science's Steve Janack.
Those investing companies include IBM, International Simitech and Vistech Lithography. Their new workspaces in Albany need to be staffed with hundreds of scientists, researchers, engineers, students and faculty.
Janack continued, "It also important to recognize that those jobs come at many different levels. Certainly their scientists and researchers, but there are also engineers, technicians, people in just about every walk of life.
By 2013 we expect 600 new jobs as a result of this expansion and, certainly, the more tools we put in place here with new facilities, new space for the companies, makes it more advantageous for new companies to look at this facility and decide to locate here as well."

HINTON (WVVA) - A Hinton man is behind bars after allegedly telling co-workers at McDonald's he had planned to kill everyone at the restaurant.
Ronald Bentonray Atwell, 26, was charged with threats of a terrorist act after police learned of the alleged threats, according to a news release from the Hinton Police Department.
Police were called to the restaurant Wednesday and advised by the manager that Atwell had told co-workers two days earlier that he was going to come into the restaurant on Sept. 4 and shoot everyone with an assault rifle, the release states.
Atwell allegedly further told co-workers to call in sick if they didn't want to be killed.
"Once we learned of the incident, I immediately notified Prosecuting Attorney Amy Mann and advised her of the situation," said Police Chief Derek Snavely. "Together we perceived the threat to be credible based upon multiple interviews and decided it was in the best interest of public safety to act quickly on the matter and make an immediate arrest.
Atwell is currently being held without bond at Southern Regional Jail.
"You hear of the situations like this all over the country and never expect something to happen in your area," Snavely added. "I'd like to think today we possibly prevented a tragedy."

Souldrummer is crashing the Red Reporter meetup at Momo's tonight
In a tough call between the Nat Pack in Penn Quarter and representing to the Reds fans (and Nats fans reportedly) who will be at Momo's on U St. tonight, I have picked Momo's on the 1300? block of U St. Should be there around 6:00-6:30 in Natstown grey and P-Nats hat. Mostly, just posting to say that I'll be with you in spirit tonight and that trying to put my fandom where my mouth his. If any of you hit the offical watch party with Clint and the Nat Pack in Penn Quarter (can't remember where it is but I heard a radio ad for it), let me know how it goes. I went last time in Arlington. 2 serious fans to a bunch of hangers on who were probably local wanderers in. Did win free tickets underneath the scoreboard pavilion, though for what it's worth. Hope you all are well and hopefully Strasburg will back up his rep with a strong road showing tonight. My prediction, 6IP, 2R, 7K, 2BB, 98 pitches.

Rob Ross, Lighting Designer
Home base: New York
Current project(s): Programmer for lighting designer Jason Kantrowitz for New World Stages' Freckleface Strawberry The Musical; lighting designer for Touch at No Rules Theatre.
Most notable achievements: Graduated from The University of North Carolina School of the Arts 2010 with a BFA in Lighting Design; three summers at The Williamstown Theatre Festival as an intern, electrician, and festival production electrician by age 22; attended the Helmsley Portfolio Review in spring 2010; lighting designer of Johan Kobborg's 2010 world premier of Salute; Lightwright 5 beta-tester.
When I started in this industry: In the 7th grade.
How I got into this industry: I was too afraid to audition for the middle school play, so the teacher suggested I try tech that year and audition the next year. I didn't audition the next year.
Influences: My middle school teacher, Mrs. Ryan, and my high school theatre teacher, "V." Without the two of them, I would never be where I am today. I might be in a cubicle somewhere doing paperwork.
Worst advice I've ever heard: Not to go to a conservatory for lighting design—a lot of people in high school thought I should go somewhere where I could minor in business or something, so I had something to fall back on when lighting design didn't work.
Best advice I've ever heard: Everything happens for a reason.
favorite thing about the production industry: I love watching the faces of an audience during a live show; this is when all the work I have done finally pays off. This is especially fun in children's shows.
Favorite design/programming/technical trick: I love playing with color in light. Lighting is like painting; you can trick the viewer's eye many ways by mixing colors just right.
Plans for the future: Living in New York as a freelance lighting designer.
Other interests/side gigs: I love baseball, skiing, and swimming.
Awards, honors: Several Cappie awards and nominations for set and lighting design through high school.
Organizations, memberships: IATSE. Local 635

The Last Monk – Full Length Bollywood Film
Watch out Latest Full Bollywood Film The Last Monk online FREE Swapna, the protagonist, a girl in her mid twenties, belongs to Delhi the capital city of India. She is contended, fulfilled... she reaches out to get what life has to offer...quite like Delhi's revolutionized working middle class living in the fast lane modernity. Her fifteen days old marriage with Pushkar completes her cycle of jaunt. Life for her is an extended honeymoon and she seems to be sensually basking in it. Pushkar is a successful IT professional and a caring husband. But this perfect life pauses when she has to leave for Ladakh to complete her doctoral dissertation in cultural Buddhism. Sonic, a local Khempo becomes her guide on this trip. She travels all over Ladakh and Sonic goes beyond being just an academic guide for Swapna. He is a store house of knowledge and passion for life. He helps her enter a new world full of ethereal sensitivities & sensibilities. The breath-taking landscape of Ladakh, the color, the graphics in the rock structure, its mystic culture, its heritage, simplicity... mesmerizes Swapna, as much as the awakening that Sonic has lead her to.

She becomes the extension of the creator, mother of the civilization ...
To bad someone made a great error and mixed these two films up. This movie was suppose to be about a Monk traveling to New York to care for his deceased brothers son, and loads of karate fighting. Always a big load of sh**.
Such a bullshit…wasted my time
the movie is about a woman and the desert.boring
This is utter horse shit! This was the description of the movie from the link I clicked on:
"A Shaolin monk journeys to New York City to care for his orphaned nephew, and is forced to compete in a series of underground fights in order to rescue his friends from vicious Russian gangsters."
I was led to believe this was a martial arts movie…
Scenery very breath taking but all in all it was boring and it sure was not the Last Monk.
extremely boring, watch if you want to fall asleep.
I appreciate the meaning in it, but it is very boring.
I was mislead into believing it was an action/drama.
worst movie ever seen
like this very much
have to say the sound there is a lot of crackling noise in the back ground as it playing

Super Bowl Monday will be the biggest sports day of the year for U.S. Army Sergeant Major Jose Velasquez.
That's right, Super Bowl Monday.
Kickoff at the bar across the street from the Yongsan Army Base in Seoul, South Korea, will be at about 8:30 a.m. Velasquez will be wearing his dark blue Wes Welker No. 83 jersey for the big event.
"It's a little different, being in the morning, but it doesn't matter. I'm used to watching big games from back home in the morning," said Velasquez, a senior public affairs officer on the base. "I've been in the Army 21 years. I've been around the world a million times. When the Patriots were horrible, they were still my team. I really appreciate this."
Velasquez's story is an interesting one. He grew up in an apartment on 52 Willow St. in Lawrence.
"My parents split when I was about three and my mother (Agripina Velasquez) brought me up," he said. "I was a single child so it was just myself and her. It was pretty tough. She worked in factories whole life. Her last job was at a shoe factory in Haverhill. I owe everything to her. She instilled a lot of values in me."
Velasquez wasn't a star athlete at Lawrence High, where he graduated in 1988. He played football freshman and sophomore year before joining the band.
"I loved sports, but I just wasn't tall enough," said Velasquez.
After joining the Army in 1990, he met his wife, Velgica, in Panama. They have two sons, Jose III (18) and Nathan (14). While his wife and sons live in Virginia, they are rabid Patriots fans.
"Honestly, my wife might be a bigger fan than I am," he said. "She is a diehard fan. So are my boys. It's tough being away from them, especially when you want to share events like this. Unfortunately, it's part of my job."
Velasquez has his own blog, "Being," where he likes to write positive messages.
He wrote a passage about the game today, titled "Oh God, If You'll Only Let The Patriots Win ... "
"It's a way to express myself. I look at myself as a very positive person," said Velasquez. "I like to focus on the good things about life."
And for him, one of those good things, he hopes and prays, happens tonight. Or in his case, Monday morning.
Velasquez might not be the biggest Patriots fan in America, but there is little doubt who is the biggest in South Korea.
"It's me," said Velasquez. "In Korea, I'm the biggest."

Only 46% of children grow up in an intact home, study says

WASHINGTON (BP) -- Only 46 percent of children in the United States will reach age 17 having grown up in a home with biological parents who are married -- a figure that has a significant impact on the nation's graduation, poverty and teenage birth rates, according to a new report.
"We have never faced anything like this in human history," said the Family Research Council's Pat Fagan, one of the co-authors of the study.
Compiled by Fagan and psychologist Nicholas Zill and released by the Family Research Council's Marriage & Religion Research Institute, the data shows that:
-- The intact family rate is highest in the Northeast (49.6 percent) and lowest in the South (41.8)
-- Minnesota (57) and Utah (56.5) have the highest intact family rate among all 50 states, with Mississippi (34 percent) the lowest.
-- Asians (65.8) have the highest rate among ethnic and racial classes, blacks (16.7) the lowest.
The authors call their report the index of family belonging, and they say there is a direct correlation between a low "family belonging" rate, and high poverty and low graduation rates. A north-to-south trip on the Mississippi River, from Minnesota to Mississippi, is a good example of this correlation, the authors say.
The percentage of children who reach age 17 with married biological parents falls drastically as one travels down the river, from 57 percent in Minnesota, to 49 percent in Illinois, 40 percent in Tennessee and 34 percent in Mississippi. At the same time, the graduation rate also falls significantly (Minnesota, 86 percent; Illinois, 80 percent; Tennessee, 75 percent; Mississippi, 64 percent). The family belonging rate is "more closely linked" to graduation rates than is government spending, the report said.
Likewise, the child poverty rate is closely tied to the breakup of the family. The child poverty rate in Minnesota is 14 percent. It then climbs during the trip down the Mississippi River: Illinois (19 percent), Tennessee (24 percent) and Mississippi (31 percent). Similarly, the unmarried teen birth rate climbs: Minnesota (6 percent), Illinois (9 percent), Tennessee (11 percent) and Mississippi (14 percent).
The report suggested four reasons why the poverty rate is so closely tied to the breakup of the family:
-- Even if wages are low, a couple is more likely to avoid poverty if both parents contribute financially.
-- It is "inherently more costly" for parents to live apart and to spend money on two houses.
-- A father is "motivated to work harder to support a child" when he lives with the child and mother.
-- Many non-residential parents don't pay child support.
"The foundational relationship of marriage has quite an impact on the wellbeing of children, and on the welfare of both the states and the nation," said Fagan, director of FRC's Marriage & Religion Research Institute. "Sad to say, our family culture today is primarily a culture of rejection between parents.... Most American mothers and fathers cannot stand each other enough to raise the children they brought into existence."

Sutton man Ravi Kumar sexually assaults woman selling son's tracksuit online
5:00pm Friday 16th November 2012 in News By Sophia Sleigh, Chief Reporter
A 36-year-old man has been jailed for assaulting a woman who advertised her toddler's tracksuit on the internet.
Ravi Kumar, 36, of Laburnham Court, Robin Hood Lane, Sutton has been jailed for six weeks and put on the Sex Offender's Register for seven years for assaulting the mother.
Kumar, who was working as a legal counsel with an IT services and business solutions company, responded to the advert for the boy's tracksuit and called round to the mother's home near Sutton town centre on October 2.
The woman, who was home alone with her three-year-old son, put the tracksuit on the kitchen table. However, Kumar held it up and said it was too big for his son.
She moved towards the front door to encourage him to leave, however he kissed her on the mouth and face.
He pushed her against the wall with such force that it caused her nose to bleed.
Her toddler managed to open the door while she pushed Kumar outside shouting "Get out".
The mother immediately called police and they were able to arrest Kumar within 24 hours due to the assistance of the internet company.
Kumar was sentenced at Croydon Magistrates Court on October 26 after pleading guilty to touching a woman in a sexual way without her consent.

Anthrax was one of my favorite metal bands growing up in the 80's. They were heavy as all get out, but they also had a street credibility that made them stick out in a sea of ultra-serious metal made by people wearing tons of leather and spikes (and makeup in lesser cases). Anthrax were content to go on stage wearing just t-shirts and jam shorts which really helped them connect to their fans in a much more personal way than a lot of other metal bands from the classic era.
This 2 disc collection covers the 1985-1991 years of Anthrax's career which is what many a fan consider to be the true lineup anyway. The lineup during these years were vocalist Joey Belladona, bassist Frankie Bello, lead guitarist Danny Spitz and founding members on rhythm guitar and drums Scott Ian & Charlie Benante respectively. This set also honors the 25th anniversary of the release of their classic 1985 album "Spreading the Disease" which was the debut of then new vocalist Joey Belladona (who actually had made his debut on a previous E.P. entitled Armed & Daneragous, but why quibble). He had repacled their terrible original singer who had mangled their 1st album, 1984's Fistul of Metal, which was musically an otherwise fine debut album.
While I would have preferred that they had just released re-mastered versions of the actual albums, this seems like it's going to be as good as it's going to get for a while. I guess we should be thankful that Island/Universal gave us this at all.
Basically you get 7 out of the 9 tracks off of 1985's "Spreading the Disease, 6 out of the 9 tracks off of 1987's "Among the Living", 6 tracks from 1988's "State of Euphoria" and 6 tracks from 1990's "Persitence of Time". They also throw in 2 tracks off of the "I'm the Man" e.p., their classic matchup with Public Enemy (Bring Tha Noize) and 2 tracks from an odds/sods EP which make up the last 2 tracks on disc 2. (one of those is a hilarious French language version of the track Anti-Social.)
The sound has been remastered as to where everything is clearer and you don't have to crank the heck out of your stereo to get it loud enough. The production sound itself & mix have been left untouched. While still sounding a little raw, compared to other metal bands of the era, it sounds fantastic. The new mastering also makes things a bit clearer as well without affecting the mix.
The set contains great liner notes from all of the band member reminiscing about the old days and what those classic albums mean to each of them.
Overall, a very classy set that should more than please Anthrax fans who have been clamoring for something to be remastered at some point of their catalog. While I'm still holding out hope that we'll one day see new remastered special edition's of each of the 4 albums themselves, this is still a great collection nonetheless.
I'm more of a fan of the Belladonna era of Anthrax so I welcomed this with open arms and am hoping to catch the reunited classic lineup on tour at some point. Hopefully, they'll make an all new record as well.

News: French Montana Ends 50 Cent Beef Talk: "It's My Turn, Let Me Eat" [Video]
Friday, Jan 11, 2013 10:05AM
Bad Boy Records' French Montana has put an end to the 50 Cent beef chatter, recently ironing out where they really stand and how serious their rap dispute is.
Rather than embrace the negative implications or tensions their publicized dispute has sparked, Montana said their issues are nothing more than a war of words.
"I try to keep it entertaining," Montana said, referring to the dispute. "Me and him don't got no real problems. I guess I had said something in an interview he read and you know he probably just be looking for anything, he read it, sent the tweet out and I sent the tweet back but ain't no problem with him. 50 is 50. Yeah, [laughs], you know, jean shorts with the knee caps showing. [Did he really wear jean shorts?] Man, there's probably a couple of photos out there on the Internet, I seent it. Yeah, ain't no beef, man. You know I've been doing good. I had a great year, I want to keep going. That man already did his thing, I feel like it's my turn now. That's all it is. Yeah, I don't want to go back and forth with him, he already did his thing now it's my turn, let me eat." ("The Angie Martinez Show")
The dispute has even caught attention from fellow hip-hop stars like Game, who recently weighed in.
"I'm so far removed from that beef with him that I had to pretty much laugh at it," Game said, referring to Fif's diss to him and Young Buck on "My Life." "I'm a big fan of Eminem so I like what he did. Adam [Levine] is my dude. I helped clear that record for 50. Me and Adam got the same management, so people had to come see me and play the record. So I heard me get dissed before people heard it. ... I seen him and French Montana going at it about a week ago on Twitter. French was making fun of him and doing the same things that I was doing. But at the end of the day, it's healthy for the game. I love it, it keeps me laughing at the crib." (Skee TV)
In late November, Fif likened Montana to his jailed rap foe Ja Rule.
"He runs his mouth prematurely, he's not ready to compete on any level with me," Fif said in an interview. "When I drop a record and it becomes the number one selling record in twelve hours, after you saying that, I think you should be quiet a little bit. You should hear the crickets now. So moving forward, I'll put him completely out of business. I'll put him out of business off the block, the corner -- he only had one song and you didn't even care about it because it was him, it had four other people on it. You don't got to pick a side -- my run itself will pick a side. That's your new Ja Rule right now. He's going to be your new Ja Rule." (Peter Parker)
Days prior, the Bad Boy Records rookie questioned 50's selling power.
"[I'm dropping Excuse My French next year] because I ain't want to be part of the billing cycle. I am 'the' most important person in that [Bad Boy Records] building, that's how you got to look at it. You know 'Donkey' ain't doing too good," French said in an interview with DJ Drama, referring to 50 Cent. "[laughs] It's bad over there, nobody's really doing nothing. Shout-out to Kendrick Lamar doing all them numbers, that's beautiful. ... [Have I talked to 50 since the Twitter disses?] Nah, you know, things people do when they cold. That's what happens. " (Shade 45)

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre may dominate the action inside the Octagon, but when he knuckles up to the poker table, the shoe, as they say, is on the other foot.
For the second straight year, "Rush" has been knocked out on Day 1 at the annual World Series of Poker (WSOP) "No Limit Hold 'Em" tournament earlier this week at Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
And as disciplined a fighter as the French-Canadian is inside the cage, he apparently lacks in that department when he tries to bluff the best pokers players in the business.
He admits his weakness to Poker Listings:
"I am known as a very disciplined fighter, but also a very undisciplined poker player. That's what I'm working on, I need to be more disciplined."
In town for the UFC Middleweight title fight between Anderson Silva and Chris Weidman at UFC 162 last weekend (July 6, 2013), St. Pierre hung around to test his hand against the best poker players in the world -- which required a $10,000 buy-in -- as part of his sponsorship with 888poker.com.
While he didn't have much luck in "Sin City" this time around, St. Pierre -- who was among a record-setting 79,471 total entries -- will hope to be dealt a better hand when he returns to the fight capital of the world on Nov. 16, 2013, to take on Johny Hendricks in the main event of UFC 167.
Anyone think he'll bust there, too, just like "The Spider?"

Sweet Corn Pot Pie
Last summer my fiance and I went to a farmhouse dinner featuring local ingredients at an apple orchard. We were the only two guests who had selected the vegetarian option. The owner told us that they didn't often have people select that option, and that they were excited for the challenge of coming up with a special meal for us. When they presented us with their sweet corn pot pie, we were blown away and continued to talk about how good it was all winter. Since this wasn't a restaurant that we could return to and fill our craving, I decided to recreate the delicious taste at home. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we enjoyed the original! Although this recipe calls for frozen sweet corn, if you have access to fresh sweet corn, use that instead!
Sweet Corn Pot Pie
Regan @ onceamonthmeals.com
- 0.5 cup vegetable stock (filling)
- 0.5 cup whole milk (filling)
- 1 Tablespoon corn starch (filling)
- 1.5 Tablespoons white flour (filling)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (filling)
- 2 cups sweet corn, frozen (filling)
- 1.5 medium potato, cubed and boiled until tender (filling)
- 0.25 cup mayonnaise (filling)
- 2 medium eggs (filling)
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice (filling)
- 2 teaspoons salt (filling)
- 0.25 teaspoon pepper (filling)
- 2 cups white flour
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 cups butter, cold
- 2 cups whole milk
Preheat oven to 375F. Mix all of the filling ingredients together in a large bowl. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Add butter, combining until butter is broken up into tiny pieces. Add milk and stir until dough begins to stick together. Form into a ball and divide in half. Roll balls out into 12 inch disks. Place one disk in a pie pan and press the dough until the edges are covered. Pour filling into pie pan. Fit the remaining disk over the filling. Fold any excess dough over the edge of the pie pan and press down on the edges, so the filling is sealed inside. Cut two long strips on the top of each crust. Bake 35-40 minutes, or until crust is golden.
Freezing Directions:
Before baking, cover pan with aluminum foil. Label and freeze. To Serve: Thaw. Bake 35-40 minutes at 375F, or until crust is golden.
Servings: 4

I'm from Pennsylvania, and the PA Dutch (Amish) have a traditional dish simply called Corn Pie that is very similar. The eggs in the filling are hard-boiled and chopped before baking. A great way to use up hard-boiled eggs after Easter. And delicious! :)
Is it really 2 cups of butter?
I tried this recipe tonight for dinner, and I think there may be some measurement errors. The crust was a complete flop: too much butter and milk. I ended up scrapping the crust (2 cups of butter and milk wasted!) and making my own. Also the filling was way too salty. I would cut it back from 2 tsp. to 1 or even a 1/2 tsp. I was so disappointed, as this sounded like a wonderful comfort dish for autumn. Can you check the measurements just to make sure you got them right?
I had the same problem with the crust while cooking the August vegetarian menu. Off to the store to buy some crust.
Have you tried preparing this then freezing it? I wonder if the mayo freezes okay.

07-05-13 *CAWG News* 2013 Colorado Winter Wheat Harvest Report…
Posted by Brian Allmer on July 5, 2013
Friday, July 8, 2013 – Harvest continues in southeastern Colorado. Elevators and farmers assess this year's crop for the area as "pretty bad" to "terrible." Approximately 600,000 acres may be abandoned totally and not harvested in Baca, Prowers, Bent, Kiowa and Cheyenne counties.
The USDA NASS Crop Report last Monday estimated Colorado winter wheat as seven percent harvested, compared to 81 percent at this time last year, when harvest was dramatically earlier than normal. The five-year average for harvest on this date is 25 percent complete. Approximately 600,000 acres may be totally abandoned and not harvested in Baca, Prowers, Bent, Kiowa and Cheyenne counties due to poor emergence last fall or drought and freeze damage this spring.
Some farmers in the Holly, Cheyenne Wells and Brandon area will harvest no wheat at all, some for the first time in their farm history, and some for the first time since the 1950s.
Skyland Grain in Walsh reported harvest as 75 percent complete for their area. Moisture content was very dry, with most eight to 12 percent, and test weights dipped very low, from 46 to 57 pounds per bushel. Reported dryland yields were three to 25 bushels per acre.
Skyland Grain expects to receive only 10 percent of an average crop.
A Walsh area producer said the new standard for harvest in southeast Colorado is "hours per bin-full rather than bushels per acre." He estimated the field he was harvesting would be their best this year, a real exception at 20 bushels per acre, but that the rest of his farm yield would range from "failed to 10 or 15 bushels per acre." Moisture content was low, around ten percent.
A second Walsh farmer has been harvesting wheat in the five to seven bushel per acre range, and 55-60 pound test weight. Moisture content is very dry, around 10 percent, and harvest is about 30 percent complete on his farm.
Barry Meyer at Elkhart Coop in Springfield says harvest in their area is moving slowly and is 65 to 75 percent complete. They anticipate taking 10 percent of an average crop. Moisture content has been 8 to 10 percent, test weights ranging from 54 to 60 pounds per bushel, and reported yields have been 5 to 22 bushels per acre. The bright spot is high protein content, averaging between 14 and 16 percent.
Amelia Coyle of Cargill says that the Granada and Holly areas are deep in harvest, with harvest about 65 percent complete in those areas. She estimates that they may receive 25 percent of a normal crop but cautions that number may be optimistic and that conditions are really terrible in the area. Moisture contents are very dry, seven to eight percent. Test weights not too bad, ranging from 57 to 60 pounds per bushel, with the exception of one load in Holly dipping down to 51 pounds per bushel. Protein content was high, with loads of the varieties Winterhawk (WestBred), Byrd (PlainsGold ), and T163 (LimaGrain Cereal Seeds), which had yielded 20 to 30 bushels per acre, testing with protein contents from 13.5 percent to 14.5 percent, and a load of WB-Stout (WestBred) having lower yields (eight to 15 bushels) but very high protein at 15.8 percent.
Tempel Grain in Wiley has not yet received much wheat and doesn't expect to, with most of the wheat in the area already cut for wheatlage. They expect to take only about 5,000 bushels at that location this year.
A Lamar farmer said all of their wheat was zeroed out this year, for the first time in the history of their farm. "It was hard to beat last year for finishing early, but we were done even earlier this year."
A Sheridan Lake farmer hasn't cut anything since Wednesday since the cooler weather has kept the moisture too high to harvest in the wheat they do have, around 16 percent. He is going to head out to check moisture today and see if the fields are ready.
Coyle said that the Cheyenne Wells intake area had been expected to get going today or tomorrow, but that farmers are still finding too much green in their fields. Expectations now are that harvest will really take off in that area in the middle or towards the end of next week.
Colorado winter wheat production in 2013 is projected at only 51,000,000 bushels (based on the USDA's estimate of yield on June 12, 2013 and revised estimate of harvested acres on June 28, 2013), down 31 percent from 73,780,000 bushels produced last year, and down 29 percent from the 10-year average crop of 71,978,000 bushels.
The estimate for the 2013 Colorado winter wheat crop is based upon only 1,500,000 acres being harvested (which is the lowest harvested acres since 1965) with an average yield of 34.0 bushels per acre. This compares with 2,170,000 acres harvested last year and the 10-year average of 2,122,000 acres harvested and an average yield of 34 bushels per acre last year and the 10-year average yield of 33.4 bushels per acre.
An estimated 2,200,000 acres were planted last fall for harvest in 2013, compared with 2,350,000 acres planted for harvest in 2012 and the 10-year average of 2,395,000 acres planted for harvest.

What to do...
There is this girl... I've met her 8 months ago in a dancing course and haven't seen her for more than half a year. Then on the 1st we wrote each other online and I found out that she is just as lonely as I am. We both have little experience in the complex field of love because we never found anyone.
Some days ago, she wrote me that she fell in love with me back then when we were dancing, but she never dared to tell me. And she claims she still wants me!
She wanted to go see a movie with me and asked whether she could sit on my lap and kiss me then.
We went to see Trek on Thursday (she liked the trailer and there is no other good movie running here anyway, Avatar is sold out) and she didn't want too much physical contact. She quickly escaped from a gentle hug and only wanted me to hold her hand. When I brought her home, she put earphones on and listened to music while I talked to her... (WTF?!)
At her door, I stroked her face and neck, but she turned away. Then the Klingon in me claimed his rightful wrath and I asked her why she doesn't want a kiss. The answer was: "Next time..."
I wrote her that listening to an mp3 stick while the one you love is talking to you is NOT considered to demonstrate interest, on the contrary.
She apologized and wrote that she loves me.
Got any advice?
Hang out with her, don't push the issue to much. If she's interested, she'll give you signals.
I don't want to be conquered, I want to conquer ;)
And she insists she loves me since 8 months... but that's only what she writes and says, not what she does.
Take her out and have fun. No pressure. She says she likes dancing with you, take her somewhere where there is dancing.
I wanted to, but she didn't. Too many people there.
Thanks for your advice, though... and good night (My body wanted 6 h of sleep but I negotiated it down to 4 ;))
no problem, don't let the bed bugs bite
You can ask her what she want's and take it from there. If it is wrighting is easier for her to comunicate than do it that way. We girls forget men don't get our hits and have to staright foward tell her that in delicate words of course. Best of luck.
WHat she wrote me was quite unsettling... she has suggested multiple techniques, as Data would say ;)
Perhaps she doesn't know what she wants or is simply shy? If you haven't seen each other for a long time, she might simply need some time. If you want something stable and not just some action, you should take the slow path anyway. :001_smile:
It's gonna be alright, brother. You seem like an awesome guy.

Well I got a lil ladies number after briefly talking with her during the day.
Advice for texting a shy girl
After a few txts I told her "I'm looking for an adventure, promise me you aren't one of those boring girls"
Lil Lady: "What exactly do you mean by an adventure?? x"
I didn't get to respond, so... half an hour later
Lil Lady: "Well I guess I am a boring one lol x"
She is a shy girl and prefers to txt. All I know is she's cute, no more info on her background, likes etc.
If I were to txt her I'd encourage her, mention something along the lines of "you seem like a good girl from what I remember, what do you enjoy doing?"
Look forward to reading your experiences and advice

The Nut Job
Opens Fri., Jan. 17 at Pacific Place and other theaters. Rated PG. 86 minutes.
The Nut Job is animation's rebuke to Atlas Shrugged. Here we have an individualist, a practitioner of the Ayn Randian virtue of selfishness, who must learn to share with others and embrace the joys of collectivization. And by "others," I mean other rodents. This subtext must've amused director Peter Lepeniotis and his co-writer Lorne Cameron, although they pepper the movie with enough dry-roasted jokes to dispel any sense of preaching.
The egotist is Surly (voiced by gravelly Will Arnett), a purple squirrel whose me-first behavior gets him kicked out of the park. He and his silent rat sidekick Buddy will vie with the other park animals to raid the pantry of a nearby nut shop—which is really the front for a gangster operation, and at this point further plot description becomes superfluous. All you need to know is that the park's raccoon overlord (Liam Neeson) exhibits too much interest in power; that the "good" squirrel (Brendan Fraser) has an oversized image of his heroism (not really a problem, because everybody else shares it, too); and that sensible Andie (Katherine Heigl) thinks Surly might be redeemable. One problem with these park denizens: They tend to look alike. There's a mole and some woodchucks and other such toothy creatures, which makes for less visual variety, than, say, the fauna of Bambi. The movie's practically stolen by the only headlining canine in sight, a pug brilliantly voiced by Maya Rudolph—her arrival goes a long way toward sweetening a story with an unpleasant hero.
The film is fast-moving, even if its goal of catching the manic spirit of Bugs Bunny cartoons succeeds only about half the time. Its look (in 3-D, in some theaters) is just odd enough to be nicely distracting: a world of vaguely '50s-era cars and buildings, decorated with saturated colors and one spectacular tree on fire. Nobody's going to mistake The Nut Job for Disney, but the script is in the 10-gags-per-minute style that epitomizes current TV sitcoms, and it's funny enough to keep an adult awake for most of its running time. Lepeniotis expanded the film from his 2005 short, Surly Squirrel, and financed it with Canadian and South Korean money. The latter is the only explanation for the end-credits appearance of a cartoon Psy, once again flogging his Korean novelty hit "Gangnam Style" so the other critters can join in. Until that dated reference, The Nut Job qualifies as a mildly pleasant surprise.
