Mar 2000 20:31:18 -0500 From: Frank Foley Subject: Just An AccidentJust as my friend and the black guy with him were about to leave, the black guy spilled his drink all over him. kids model pussy I offered him something to

said he had to leave

for work immediately so I told him to go

and I'd give male underwear models Stan, the black guy, a ride later.Stan was in the bathroom hanging his wet clothes while I looked

for something I thought might fit him

in my bedroom closet."Try

these." I yelled from the closet, turning towards the bedroom.Just outside

the door stood Stan naked. His cock hung so long between his legs that it startled me

and I dropped the shorts at his feet. As I bent to pick them up, my face

came to within a foot of his cock, which my eyes locked on, and as I stood Stan stepped foward, his cock bouncing off my chin on my way up."Sorry!" I said to him smiling."No problem." he said somewhat softly."See if these fit." I said, handing him the shorts.As he sat on the bed and pulled the shorts past his feet, his cock never left my sight.

I belle models darwin was amazed at

the apparent size of it.The shorts were too small and after looking for something else for him to wear without success, he said it didn't matter if he had clothes on and if it was alright with me he would wait naked. Of course it was ok I told him.We made a drink and sat in the living room, him to my right and

My white face contrasted with blackness of it's color. The sight of my white mouth

I told him. He said

I was hooked now but not to worry, he'd have me suck him all the time.He stayed long after his clothes dried and came in my mouth twice before leaving. Taking my phone number as I

he promised

to call tomorrow.After he katie grace model left I

thought about how different sucking him was. I always liked models teen nude the feeling I got when I was with 74hc spice model someone and sucking their cock, liked being the one with the role of the cocksucker. With him though, the feeling was much more intense. Maybe because he was black and defintely his huge cock

helped. What ever, I really liked being with him and sucking his cock.About 7 the next

I said."So how do you feel now." he asked again."Getting better." I said."Just better." he chuckled. "You're sitting in a room with three black guys about to suck their cocks and you feel better!" he said to me.I felt myself getting really turned on listening to him."Maybe if you all take your

Each bit in a quantum machine -- known as qubits -- can be both a one and zero. It's about possibilities. When a qubit is constructed, it's built so you don't know if it's a one or a zero. It has the possibility of being both.
It's not known what those qubits are until they begin to interact -- or entangle -- with other qubits. Based on their entanglements, they become a one or a zero. However, just because a qubit acted as a zero during one calculation, doesn't mean it will act as a zero during the next calculation. It goes back to the original possibility.
That's where the quantum computer's power comes into play. A quantum system doesn't work in an orderly, linear way. Instead, its qubits communicate with each other, through entanglement, and they calculate all the possibilities at the same time.
That means if a quantum machine has 512 qubits, it's calculating at 2 to the 512th power at the same time. That number is so immense that there are not that many atoms in the universe, according to Rupak Biswas, chief of NASA's Advanced Supercomputing Division. Some physicists theorize that all those calculations are being done in different dimensions.
"We're so far outside of our everyday experience," said Germano S. Iannacchione, head of the Physics Department at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. "Common sense doesn't guide us here. We're trying to come up with pictures in our heads of how it works. When you're at the hairy edge of the unknown in physics and you don't have experience and common sense to guide you, you have to rely on the math. That's the only thing you can hold on to."
Despite the complexities, D-Wave's Brownell said his company has built quantum computers, using their own quantum processor built with different metals, such as niobium, a soft metal that becomes superconducting when cooled to very low temperatures.
One machine, the D-Wave Two, leased by the Universities Space Research Association, is based at NASA's Ames Research Center in Mountain View, Calif. NASA has use of the machine 40 percent of the time, Google has another 40 percent and the research association has 20 percent.
Google declined to talk about its work with the system. However, its experiments on the computer have led to debate on whether D-Wave's computer performs any better than classic computing or whether it is a quantum computer at all.
NASA, which has had its hands on the D-Wave Two since last September, has only been testing it, Biswas said. His group has been doing high-performance modeling and simulation on problems related to Earth sciences, aeronautics and deep space exploration.
"We're still in the early stages," said Biswas, but added that testing is going well. "We are trying to see what it can do. It's not a turnkey situation. It's a very exotic field. It's like in the early days of computing when we had computers with vacuum tubes and card readers."
D-Wave's system at NASA may be the first commercially available quantum computer, but it's not the first quantum machine. Basic quantum computers have been built before. In 2000, scientists at the Los Alamos National Laboratory demonstrated a working 7-qubit system.
In 2011, Brownell said, D-Wave, to prove it was on the right track, built a quantum computer running 8 qubits. However, the company hasn't proved that its 512-qubit machine works as a quantum computer, and that's because, he said, it simply can't be proven.
"These are such complex systems they can't be modeled by all the computers in the world put together," Brownell said. "That will never be completely provable."

Local authorities want parents and kids to be aware of the growing trend of child pornography and cyber sex in this area.
We told you last week about the 13-year-old Lubbock girl that was seduced over the Internet and eventually led into sexual activity with a man twice her age. 38-year-old Eric Wise of Iowa was indicted on several counts, including child pornography, interstate transportation of child pornography, enticing a child over the Internet, and traveling for the purpose of engaging in sexual activity with a juvenile. He faces up to 120 years in prison.
This situation began in a chat room, and ended when the young girl to fell in love with a child predator. So how does this happen? And what do you need to know so it doesn't happen to you or someone in your family?
These days learning how to work a computer and surfing the Internet is part of the curriculum for school age kids from elementary school on. But just like you'd tell your child not to talk to a stranger at the mall, you need to warn them of the strangers on the Internet as well.
"It usually will start in chat rooms, buddy lists that they have with their Internet chats. It usually will seem innocent, nothing to it. But a lot of times when a profile is made on the Internet that person explains who they are, likes and dislikes. So now that person already has an idea of what their getting into mainly because a young person does not understand the complications and the dangers that are out there," said Juvenile Sergeant Scott Farmer with the Lubbock Police Department.
Farmer also says kids don't realize the danger of sharing their personal information, nor do they understand that a predator could be posing as a friend. That's where the parents come in.
"I think it would be good for the parents and the children to realize that the predators are very skillful in how they make the contact. They usually start off as being very close in age in their Internet identity, then they gradually increase the age as the child becomes attached to them. So they try to befriend them, then invariably if the child ever does agree to meet one of these predators at that time they feel like they are very close friends with the predators, a lot of times they are even in love," said Assistant US Attorney Steve Socsy.
According to Socsy, predators groom young boys and girls, making them feel good about themselves and vulnerable to their online pal.
"Parents really need to pay attention, to chat rooms, to IM, instant messaging. They need to educate their children because a new criminal is out there. They can reach into the safety of your home and basically snatch your child," said Pam Alexander.
Pam Alexander, a counselor with Victims Assistance, says you have to stay involved in your children business, its not a matter of trust, but out of concern for their safety.
"I would definitely say have your parental guards, controls on there, and pay attention to what your kids are doing. If a child is staying on the computer for long periods of time, night after night, you need to find out who they are talking to and what's being said because they are creeping into your home. The way we can stop this crime, and it can be stopped is for parents to pay attention to what your child doing on the computer," said Alexander.
According to Victims Assistance and the Lubbock Police Department, this type of crime is on the rise, with more than a dozen reported here locally. But this was the first traveling case reported in our area.
As the world of computers continues to evolve, so do the methods and tactics of law enforcement and authorities across the country are on-track to putting a stop to Internet sex crimes.

The names of 40 doctors who'll fund and run a second hospital in Kearney was released Tuesday.
The doctors on board represent 15 different specialties. It's a show of support that further pits hospital against hospital.
The chairman of the upcoming Kearney Regional Medical Center, Dr. Sean Denney, is one of dozens of doctors willing to put their money where their mouth is and fund a private hospital they say will improve patient care in our community.
Dr. Sean Denney, a cardiologist, said, "When you have a facility that is run by remote control
from another place, you lose sight and focus of the needs of the community that you serve."
He's talking about Catholic Health Initiatives based in Denver that runs Good Samaritan Hospital. However, Good Sam officials said the non-profit has invested $138 million in Kearney over the past 10 years and pointed to plans for a $65 million addition announced in October.
Steve Loveless, the interim C.E.O. of Good Samaritan Hospital, said, "They recognize the ministry that exists here and are committed to maintaining Kearney as a viable community."
40 doctors disagree and have signed up to own and operate the Kearney Regional Medical
Center from anesthesiology, cardiology, gastroenterology, nephrology, obstetrics and
gynecology, orthopedic surgery, oncology, cardiothoracic surgery, family practice, internal
medicine, interventional radiology, neurosurgery, pediatrics, plastic surgery and vascular
surgery. Denney said it's not an either/or situation.
"There's been no discussion at any point along the way that these physicians would
relinquish privileges or practicing at Good Samaritan," said Denney.
Yet, Loveless said this will affect their facility, with these doctors likely choosing to perform more profitable procedures in the hospital they have a financial stake in. Loveless said loss of that revenue will jeopardize some of the programs Good Sam offers and ultimately affect access to healthcare.
Loveless said, "Last year, Good Samaritan provided care for over 2,000 individuals who had no ability to pay for that care. Our ability to do that comes through the financial viability we have as an organization."
Denney said his team will continue to work with uninsured and underinsured and won't cherry pick procedures.
"If we wanted to do that what we would have done is we would have carved out cardiology and orthopedic surgery and only have and orthopedic and cardiatric hospital and that's certainly not the case," said Denney.
Denney said this isn't the final list. More doctors are voicing interest everyday.

BELLEVILLE — The Althoff Crusaders are living proof that you can't judge a volleyball team by its record.
Due in part to a grueling tournament schedule, Althoff took a 5-10 record into Tuesday's match at Belleville West. But the Crusaders looked like anything but a losing team in a posting a 25-13, 25-23 win over their crosstown rival.
"September was a struggle for us and we wanted to start off October right," Althoff coach Sara Thomas said. "We were nervous because West is a very good team and city matches are always big for us. I'm glad we won and I'm extremely proud of our girls."
The loss snapped a four-match winning streak for West, which dropped to 14-5.
"Althoff is a very good volleyball team, and playing that schedule, it makes them tougher," Maroons coach Austin Betz said. "It lets them know what they need to do to be competitive at a high level. They did the right things tonight to beat us."
An ace serve by Rachel Kaltwasser gave Althoff an 8-5 lead in game one and it went ahead 16-9 when West's Kayla Juenger hit the ball into the net. The Maroons called their second timeout after that point in attempt to slow down Althoff's momentum, but the Crusaders boosted their lead to 20-10 on a block by Dani Hawthorne.
West pulled within 20-13 on a block by Toni Fields, but an ace serve by Kaltwasser made the score 24-13. The Crusaders closed out the game on a kill by Briana Nowak.
"Our record doesn't look too good on paper, but we're a lot better than that," said Althoff junior Megan Seibel, who had four kills. "Playing West, there's definitely a lot of competition. You always want to beat them and try your best."
In game two, Althoff went ahead 11-8 on a block by Seibel and a hitting error by West made the score 13-9. The Maroons twice pulled within one point, but a kill by Seibel gave Althoff a 21-15 lead.
"Playing the kind of schedule we do, it keeps the intensity up," Seibel said. "It's kind of a kick in the butt to keep you working."
This time, West was able to tie the score at 22-22 on a kill by Juenger. But a tip by Kaltwasser put Althoff ahead to stay at 24-23, and the Crusaders won the game and the match on a block in the middle by Alanna Bramwell.
"Our serving and defense were a lot better tonight," Thomas said. "We did a much better job of finishing. In the past, we might have let the other team come back and win that game, but we really showed character by coming out of a timeout at 24-23 and finishing on the next point."
Bramwell had a match-high six kills for Althoff while Nowak had five.
"We play in a tournament at St. Joseph's Academy and that's all nationally ranked teams," Thomas said. "We might not do great in that tournament, but coming out of it, we learn so much and we get so much experience going into October."
Juenger and Zoe Zeiter had six and five kills, respectively, for West.
"We passed very poorly to start with," Betz said. "They were being aggressive on their serves and their attack and we weren't able to run our offense. We made 14 errors in the first game.
"We had 15 errors in the second game, but I thought we played a lot better. Our serving and passing improved and we got some confidence, and when you get confidence, good things start happening."


text: Felipe Pena, also known as Felipe Preguiça, is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt from the Gracie Barra academy in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, who was regarded as one of the biggest prospects in the jiu jitsu world while he was still a brown belt, after tremendous performances in tournaments such as the World Championships and the Copa Podio. Felipe Pena is also the brother of another figure of BJJ, Augusto "Tio Chico". Felipe "Preguiça" Pena Jiu Jitsu Full Name: Felipe Carsalade Pena Nickname: "Preguiça" means lazy, or sloth. The nickname was given by Vinicus "Draculino" when Felipe Pena started practicing jiu jitsu as a teenager, the reason being he was very lazy and slow from being overweight. The nickname ended up motivating Felipe to train harder. Lineage: Mitsuyo Maeda > Carlos Gracie Sr. > Carlos Gracie Junior > Vinicius Magalhães > Marcelo Azevedo > Felipe Pena Main Achievements: World Champion (2014 black, 2012 brown, 2011 purple – weight & absolute) South American Champion (2012 brown – weight & absolute, 2011 brown – weight & absolute) Pan American Champion (2012 brown, 2011 purple) European Open Champion (2012 brown) Brazilian National Champion (2014 black, weight & absolute; 2012 brown) World Silver Medallist (2012 brown absolute) Brazilian National Silver Medallist (2010 purple) Favorite Technique/Position: Open guard & tacking the back. Weight Division: Meio Pesado (88kg/194lbs) Team/Association: Gracie Barra Felipe Pena "Preguiça" Biography Felipe Pena was born on the 19th of October in the city of Belo Horizonte, Brazil. He started training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at the age of 14, strongly influenced by his brother Augusto Vieira, also known as "Tio Chico" (Uncle Fester). Preguiça's first coach was Mauro Gerald, who was responsible for the kids BJJ program at Gracie Barra Belo Horizonte, however, once Felipe Pena reached blue belt level, Marcelo "Uirapuru" and Sérgio Benini became his mentors. Ever since Felipe Preguiça started training with the adults team at the academy, he decided that he wanted to follow the career of a Jiu Jitsu competitor. Through hard work, dedication and his natural talent Felipe quickly started making his mark in Jiu Jitsu, winning important tournaments at purple belt and brown belt, before earning his black belt from the hands of Master Draculino and Marcelo Azevedo (Uirapuru). Felipe has also found inspiration in his BJJ style in another product of the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu academy of Gracie Barra at Belo Horizonte, Mr Romulo Barral. no record for Felipe Pena Felipe Pena vs Felipe Sagat Felipe Pena vs Charles Negromonte Felipe Pena vs Thiago Almeida

Labour MP Michael Dugher has said that the "land of opportunity" that David Cameron refers to is only for the "privileged few".
– Michael Dugher MP, Labour's Vice Chair
Under Cameron, prices have risen faster than wages in 38 out of 39 months and average pay is down by almost £1,500 a year since the General Election.
Rather than standing up for hardworking people he has shown he always puts a privileged few first, prioritising a tax cut for those earning over £150,000 a year while everyone else pays more ...
David Cameron only offers a land of opportunity for just a privileged few, not for the many.
TUC General Secretary Frances O'Grady said that David Cameron failed to address the "living standards crisis," minimum wage and "living wage".
– Frances O'Grady, General Secretary, TUC
Voters will have been disappointed by the Prime Minister's failure to address the living standards crisis ...
Prime ministers should be able to tell the difference between profit made by investment and innovation in competitive markets and that made by ripping off consumers, exploiting workers, rigging markets and dodging tax.
We need more of the former and less of the latter ...
Labour leader Ed Miliband has responded to the Prime Minister's conference speech on Twitter:
David Cameron's speech shows he does not know where to start in tackling the cost of living crisis facing Britain's hard-working families.
The last thing families want is him to 'finish the job' when prices have risen faster than wages and average pay is down by almost £1,500.
David Cameron was more fired up than expected, and reasonably authoritative. It was better than the last two years, but was mostly about what he is already doing.
I think he will need to find more memorable and meaningful things to say about the future to win.
Whilst I think Cameron is winning the economic argument with the public, I think Ed Miliband is riding the general mood better.
Casting the Conservatives as the party for people who want to work hard, Cameron says "yes the land of despair was Labour, but the Land of Hope is Tory".
He final words: "Together we have made it this far, together we will finish what we have started and together we will build that land of opportunity".
There's the central message, "The land of despair was Labour, but the land of hope is Tory."
I'm sure everyone gets the rhyme too. Then, to loud applause, Mr Cameron says he doesn't want another coalition.
Cameron says "we need to finish the job we have started" and that this calls for "a strong government with a clear mandate".
"When that election comes, we won't be campaigning for a coalition, we will be fighting heart and soul for a majority," he adds.
Cameron is laying down some of his beliefs about immigration reforms:
The Prime Minister says, "Let's hear it for the social workers!"
David Cameron is still a Tory moderniser.

Lafia ::
Variable Montage, 2002
software, quicktime
video, MAX MSP patch
courtesy Marc Lafia, special thanks to Didi Fire
With this work Marc Lafia discusses the expanded concept
of cinematographic montage in the context of structural parameters
provided by software and computation inextricably linking projection
and recording.
A monitor shows a three part image composed of twenty-seven
still frames from a Russian film which are broken into five segments
that continually vary and permutate. Each of the five segments has
also associated with them a small phrase from Mahler's Ninth symphony
and these sounds vary pitch, alternate and overlap as the speed
of the images and sequences play.
Whereas in cinema the film projector is a fixed instrument consisting
of a single projection, [...] in software 'the projector' is simultaneously
a playback and authoring machine. It becomes a variable instrument
that can be instructed to play or project the film along particular
and varied instructions. This work authored in MAX MSP, translates
each image into a number and each set of images are given variables
within which they are sequenced and ordered in relation to all other
In computational imaging, time and sequence take on
an entirely new sense, perhaps it is the difference of becoming
rather than unfolding, where each time through the engine of computation
a film becomes, revealing something essential about computation
as an engine of possibility and something about cinema as a fixed
machine of the particular.
So Variable Montage is as much an engine or structure for
possible films as it is a film per se.

The Timberwolves have made nearly wholesale roster changes this offseason, and it looks like our offense should be much improved with our added jump-shooters.
However, when I look at the new roster I see much larger improvements on defense. The Wolves were likely the worst defending team in the league last year and have nowhere to go but up. Both David Kahn and Kurt Rambis have talked about adding toughness to their team and it appears they have done that with guys like Martell Webster and Lazar Hayward. I thought I'd take a stab and putting our players from last year and this year into tiers as far as how they performed, and will be expected to perform, defensively
2009 Tier 1
Darko Milicic (for the last 15 games or so)
Tier 2
Damian Wilkins
Tier 3
Oleksey Pecherov
This year I project something like this:
2010 Tier 1
Corey Brewer
Martell Webster
Darko Milicic
Wes Johnson (I know he's from Syracuse but from what little I've seen from him the guy looks like a natural defender)
Tier 2
Kevin Love
Nikola Pekovic
Lazar Hayward
Tier 3
Jonny Flynn
Ryan Hollins
Wayne Ellington
This is purely my gut instinct from what I've seen in summer league and the opinions that seem to be consensus about some of our new players.
It would appear that we move from the worst defensive team to something like a below average defensive team, but with the talent to grow into something pretty solid in time. A lot of our defensive problems have been about communcation and "gelling" as a team. We've gotten better individual defenders but with so many new players it will likely take until midseason before we start seeing major development there. Still, I have to believe our improved quickness alone has to amount to many more posessions this year. If Jonny can cut down the TOs we'll have some very nice nights to look forward to.

DIY: Make a card for the bridal couple
Do you love getting your craft on? Make a handmade card for the bridal couple with these few simples steps. It's a little mod, a little now, and lots of fun. You can even personalize it with customized names to add an extra touch.
Materials: kraft paper card set (I bought mine here), black paper, white paper, gold pen (I use this gold Sharpie), glue (I used this scrapbooker's glue), scissors, black pen, ruler
Step 1: Cut out very small circles from white paper for the strand of pearls. I made 3 about the same size and then 4 smaller ones.
Step 2: Cut out a bow tie from the black paper. The more uneven the better to give it a quirky quality.
Step 3: (optional) To spice up the background, I added diagonal gold lines. Use a ruler for extra precision.
Step 4: Write in "bride" and "groom" or their names for a personal touch.
DONE! Fun and easy, right?!

DIY: Bridal spoon favors
I love finding new uses for common objects (remember the clothespin?) so when I spotted these wooden spoons I knew I had to do something with them. I painted some faces on them and thought they'd be perfect to hand out as favors at a wedding or as a gift to a bridal couple. Especially two foodies! Personalize them to the couple and you'll be a big hit!
You will need: pencil, wooden cooking spoons, acrylic paints, paintbrush, twine and labels for packaging.
Step 1: Draw your face with a pencil. Keep it simple! For the bride, make a simple collar or necklace. For the groom, draw a necktie.
Step 2: Paint in the pencil lines with acrylics.
Step 3: To make the eyes I used the other end of my paintbrush.
Done! How easy was that?! And so cute! Add on a cute tag with twine and they're ready to go!

QR Code Valentine DIY
I'm sure you've seen QR codes all over the place especially in advertising, and you probably already know that they generally take you to a website. What you MAY not know is that you can easily make your own QR code and can translate into up to 250 characters of text, so it makes a perfect little secret code. Since its all based on pixels, it actually makes a great little Valentine cross stitch project that you'll be able to scan with a QR reader to decipher. If you know how to count, its super easy. Here's how to do it.
What you'll need:
- Aida cloth (or a fabric with a distinct grid) – lower counts like 4 made bigger stitches, while higher counts make smaller. I prefer an 18 count myself and find that the reader is able to read it perfectly.
- Embroidery thread – use 1 color because I've discovered mixing multiple colors within a code makes it unreadable. DMC has great colors, including neon!
- Needle
- Scissors
- Embroidery hoop – though its not really necessary
- Generated QR Code
1. Go to a site like this and create your QR code. Be sure to click that you want it to create text content, NOT a URL, and generate it as XL size so its bigger when printed. The more text you write, the bigger and therefore more complex code it will be. (see last picture for comparison)
2. Once you've got your code, print it out and draw a light grid and number every 5th row…it will really help when you're starting to cross stitch.
3. Embroidery thread is generally made up of 6 strands….you'll want to split these into 2 groups of 3. Then thread the needle and start cross stitching. I like to divide the design into quadrants so I can focus on specific smaller areas, but work however is more comfortable for you. For tips on cross stitching in general, click here.
4. Finish up the design and decide how you want to present it….you could frame it, pop it in a windowed card, whatever you like! Make sure your hunny has a QR reader installed on their phone so they'll be able to read the message. The smaller code says "Happy Valentine's Day" while the larger one is a bit more text. In general, I would stick with something short and sweet because as the code gets larger, I've found its harder for the QR reader to translate. Enjoy!

On the Road with You + ME*
Weddings often come with moving; one person moving in to another's place, moving together to a new home, or relocating after the wedding. Why not take advantage of the summer months to take a road trip with your wedding photographers to get some travel-inspired engagement shots that you can use for a moving announcement after the wedding? For these shots, we took the ever-adorable Lauren and her equally cute boyfriend Aaron out of the city for the day with the lovely and talented ladies from Moss & Isaac, and ended up with a collection of on-the-road photos.
[images from Moss & Isaac]
We used photoshop to create a moving announcement postcard–we've provided a blank back for you (download it here!) to either edit using Photoshop or Illustrator or to write your new address on with good old fashioned pen and ink (or a rubber stamp!). You can even use an online printer such as greenerprinter.com to have your favorite photo printed on the front, and our download on the back. You've got so much else on your plate planning a wedding; cross the moving announcement off your list!- Miya & Elisabeth

Here are some questions that I have, and I don't know where to look to get the answers:
· Why doesn't the NFL have an antitrust exemption?
o From what I understand, the MLB does, so what is the NFL lacking that doesn't grant them the exemption?
· What is it that the players want that hasn't been offered to them?
o I heard the players cries for retirement benefits, better health care, health and life insurance, rookie wage scales, and no 18 game schedule. The proposal the owners offered them (at least the one they said they offered them) includes all of those things.
o The players keep saying that this would be the worst deal ever offered in professional sports, but what is the context for that? They have offered no explanation for that statement, and continue not to qualify what it is they want out of this deal.
o The players have to understand by now that they aren't going to get a continuation of the last deal. Obviously the owners aren't happy, and it's not like they'll just cave in because of the threat of litigation.
· Why do people keep insisting that the players aren't asking for more?
o The players want non-monetary benefits like health and life insurance, better safety regulations, better health care, etc.
o The non-monetary benefits for the players cost money. The money will be coming out of the owners' share of the revenue, yet the players don't want the owners to get any more money than they get now.
o When dealing with percentages of money, with total revenue rising, money due to the players will increase. There will not be any money taken from the players. Their contracts will not be affected by the change in the sharing ratio. What would change is the cap number, which quite frankly is irrelevant due to the fact that none of the teams operate over the cap. Most teams aren't close to the cap either.
o The current players are asking for the rookie wage scale so that unproven rookies won't come in and make more money than the veterans that have been playing for years. They want the money that is saved by instituting this wage scale to be redistributed to the veterans. Owners generally like the idea of the wage scale because it reduces their risk in the draft. This point works for both sides, but for different reasons. The players that should be pissed are the rookies coming in this year, because they're really the ones on the losing end of this negotiation point.
· What the hell have they been doing for the last two years?
o Why is it that they didn't realize all of these issues before the last month of the CBA?
o I know that there have been a litany of court cases and moves made for positioning on both sides, but to what avail? Neither side has really made any progress, and both are facing backlash from the NFL's fans.
o The only information the casual fan has is that both sides say the other is either unreasonable, or lying. We have no idea what the truth is, and people are getting frustrated if they weren't already.
o There is no truly unbiased source out there from which fans can receive reliable information.
· Why did the decertification of the NFLPA happen?
o What can the new "organized trade association" do that the players union couldn't?
o What strategic advantage can be gained from filing an antitrust lawsuit against your employers?
o How can the NFLPA hold a draft ceremony for the rookies that they have asked not to attend the draft when the NFLPA doesn't technically exist?
Alfie's article was spot on about people just wanting a deal to get done. I, however, am of a more inquisitive nature. I like to know the details. If someone can please honestly answer any or all of my questions, it would be much appreciated. I don't feel the need to hide that I'm on the owners' side of things in these negotiations. I don't believe that the players were treated unfairly, or that the deal offered by the owners was bad in any way. I know that I'm missing a lot of information though, and I want to be informed. Please someone help me out!

Couldn't get a Nexus 4 order in. Sell me on the HTC 8X.
So, I tried to get a nexus 4 order in and failed, and have been pretty pissed with how google is handling this whole thing. I'll probably end up getting one some time in the future, but in the mean time, I am quite interested in wp8. I'd like to know what some of your favorite features of the 8x and wp8 are. How is the browser? Is it a worthy rival to a nexus? My last windows phone was the lumia 710 and i briefly used a focus before that (couldn't stand edge speeds on tmobile, so i settled for the imo far inferior phone). How is that app scene on windows phone nowadays? Number doesn't matter to me, I'm interested in quality.


text: I would have liked for our Lady Boilers bb team to be 25-4 to end the regular season. However we ended up 21-8. While there can be plenty to criticize in these 4 losses (3 home losses to unranked teams, 1 loss at IU), we are still in a good position. The key win today against the athletic and pesky Illini set us up for a 3 seed in the Big Ten Tournament. This was a crucial win, to say the least. Teams that have to play that extra day have it rough trying to play 4 straight days to be able to play in the championship game. While it has been done, it is not very likely. Teams like Ohio State, Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, and Michigan are capable of beating any team in the Big Ten on a given day if the cards all fall into place. We all know that February was rough on our team. We survived nagging injuries, a complete round of flu bugs, cold shooting spells, forgetting how to defend, the usual turnover problem, etc. etc. We sure looked like we were playing up to potential today. C-Mo hit her shots, KK ran the offense well and was all over the place, Drey and Sam O played lights out, and the others chipped in. We were able to kick it into that extra gear midway through the second half and it was fun to watch. Congratulations to our wonderful seniors: Drey Mingo, Sam Ostarello, and Chantel Poston. They will truly be missed after the tournaments are over. I was so happy to see them close it out with a win on Senior Day. As for predictions for the upcoming conference tournament, I fully expect our team to play above and beyond what will be expected of them. This will definitely be the deepest field in a long time. I would prefer we were playing in Indy. I have said it before. Last year's Big Ten Tournament increased my support for Coach Versyp. She put together three awesome game plans and the team executed them well. Of course it didn't hurt that Brittany Rayburn was on a mission from God. But let's Boiler up and make it 9 out of 17 next weekend!

CFC Announces Official Lineup for September 13th Fights in Winnipeg
An action-packed lineup of Manitoba's biggest names in fighting is set for Friday, September 13th at the Winnipeg Convention Centre as the Canadian Fighting Championship proves once again that they are the premiere promotion in Manitoba.
With some tickets still available for this weekend's CFC 8 card, fans must be sure to call (204) 772-2599 to order their VIP passes or buy them online from Ticketmaster or they risk missing this great event.
Headlined by one of the best athletes in Canadian MMA history, the CFC 8 main event matchup between Joe Doerksen (49-16) and Mike Kent (9-2) will have fans standing on their feet. Manitoba's Doerksen can become Canada's only 50 win MMA fighter with a win in the main event, but Nova Scotia's Kent is coming to down to spoil the hometown hero's party.
The semi-main event of the night features a battle of undefeated fighters! Winnipeg's Travis Gervais (3-0) has knocked out everyone he has faced in his career and he will be looking to finish Kevin Lee (5-0) on September 13th as well.

Back to School: Music
Posted By News On August 28, 2013 @ 2:00 pm In Back to School,In Depth | Comments Disabled
Music is one of the joys of life, and learning an instrument and how to sing is extremely valuable for school aged children, according to Tim McBride and Megan Phillips music teachers at the Knoxville Middle School. Here are some things I learned speaking with them.
Kids should and do have fun playing music or singing. Sometimes practicing is hard work, but that is part of the lesson too.
Music help with the learning process in all disciplines–math, language, arts, history, and other social studies.
Some of this help comes actively in music and other classes, but much of it is subconscious.
Sometimes it is hard work, parents need to help.
Music also stands on its own as a discipline, as there is nothing else like it.
Music reflects life and culture, and is a universal language. Imagine a day without music? A movie without music wouldn't have the power it does.
Enjoy the program.
