This play yard was delivered in less than one week of ordering. It went together within 15 minutes. It wheels around very easily It's so adorable, can't wait for our new grandson to sleep peacefully in it. He can watch the 3 teddy bears on the mobile circle above his eyes. The vibrations and music will lull him to sleep in no time at all. I highly recommend this play yard to anyone needing a bed for your little one.
It's not to bad it was easy to put together the only down side is the mobile it moves very very slow and only twirls around for about a minute.

Report: Ken Whisenhunt to remain in Arizona
Perhaps Ken Whisenhunt's tenure in Arizona is not coming to an end after all.
While many a report state the franchise is likely to part with its coach of the last six seasons, Yahoo! Sports' Jason Cole believes Whisenhunt will survive his second losing season in three years.
Word around the league is that Detroit's Jim Schwartz, the Arizona Cardinals' Ken Whisenhunt and Chicago's Lovie Smith are all expected to survive for another season. That expectation is based largely on the conservative approach that all three teams have historically taken with firing coaches, particularly when those coaches have money still owed to them.
It's interesting that Cole is not saying the Cardinals will keep Whisenhunt around because they think he is the best option, but instead because the franchise would be reluctant to part with a coach when there is still time left on his contract.
However, we have been led to believe these are not the "same old Cardinals" that we knew back in the day, and if that is the case then it may not prevent the Cardinals from making a move after all.

Thrasher TV ratings near the bottom (again)
In the past few years (when I've been lucky to find numbers), Thrasher TV ratings have been either last or next-to-last. Granted, this may be a function of the team's piss-poor play, but even in the playoff year, ratings were still abysmal. Is there anything that could be done to improve the numbers?

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Former Texas Tech Mike Leach thinks he'll return to coaching college football. But until then he's writing a book and is interesting in doing some sports broadcast.
Leach went on 105.3 The Fan, which is a radio station in Dallas. He is promoting a book which he plans to release in January. He says he is working on a deal to do some broadcasting but did not give out details yet because he is still negotiating a deal. Meanwhile, the Dallas radio station asked Leach if he is bitter about having been fired. He says yes, "to a point."
"It's about money and it's about a few corrupt administrators there that at Texas Tech that signed an agreement that they at no point planned to honor," said Leach.
Texas Tech attorney Dickey Grigg responded in writing by saying:
Mike Leach would have you believe that this was part of some great conspiracy going back to when the contract was signed last February. That is ridiculous, and is just a desperate attempt to distract you from the plain and simple truth. He would still be the coach at Texas Tech today but for the fact that he made a terrible decision when he irresponsibly placed a student-athlete with a brain concussion in small dark rooms for over two hours on two separate occasions.
He breached his contract and was terminated as a result of his bad decisions, his insubordination and his refusal to help resolve this situation.

Animal & Veterinary
FDA Veterinarian Newsletter November/December 2001 Volume XVI, No VI
by Karen A. Kandra
We at CVM remember the victims and their families in our thoughts and prayers. Following the tragic terrorist attack on America, people are finding ways to help the rescue efforts by contributing to numerous assistance organizations. At CVM, many employees bought almost 200 t-shirts featuring the American Flag from Special Tees, Inc., a Rockville, MD business. The proceeds went to support the Montgomery County, MD's Urban Search and Rescue Team, known as Maryland Task Force 1, who was deployed to the Pentagon to assist with rescue efforts. The Urban Search and Rescue Task Force is a highly specialized group of fire fighters, paramedics, and civilian specialists. President Bush visited with the team members to express his personal gratitude for their hard work. For more information, visit their website at http://www.co.mo.md.us/dfrs/mdtf1/. Many people wanted to contribute to an animal-related organization, and we became aware of ongoing efforts in New York City to rescue pets left behind by victims. Employees of CVM contributed more than $1,000 to the World Trade Center Animal Relief Fund to assist in rescue efforts by the Humane Society of New York.
The Humane Society of New York is conducting a major rescue operation in the wake of the attack on the World Trade Center, encompassing care and support for animals harmed or left homeless through the disaster. Directly after the attack, the Society's veterinarians were the first to begin emergency triage at Pier 40, near "Ground Zero". They attended more than 200 animals at the Pier, and served as medical escorts for individuals going into sealed apartments to retrieve pets. Medical staff continues to be ready on standby, to render emergency off-site care as needed.
The Society's veterinary hospital is now treating significant numbers of animals daily, suffering severe dehydration, respiratory distress, corneal inflammations, and other traumas. They have established a network of foster homes for cats, dogs, birds and other small animals needing temporary or permanent relocation. In addition, they have set up a Relief Center at their facility for people who have lost their homes, or those who have rescued a displaced pet but are not yet equipped to care for it. All are welcome to free care and supplies including pet food, bowls, carriers, leashes, litter and litter boxes. For further information, please visit http://www.humanesocietyny.org.
Karen Kandra is a Consumer Safety Officer in CVM's Communications Staff, and Editor of the FDA Veterinarian.


text: The Houston Rockets have been stuck in mediocrity far too long. I do not blame DM the GM, unlike so many other Rockets fans, for our teams lack of success. I understand the draft and why we drafted, Lamb, White and Jones, you take the best available players when you are trying to get better. Lets look at our roster, the only players that the Rockets plan to move forward with are Dragic and Parsons, but both of those guys are trade-able. So to put it simply DM has to make some trades and I think that he will, but the trades will be for draft picks and cap relief, unless we can pull off something huge with Orlando. So what I am trying to say is that We as Red Nation do not just want new uniforms, but we need new uniforms, they represent change, something that we can clearly see is improving, unlike our Rockets. they have let us down for the past 4 years, and if you really look at those past teams, they were almost the same, we have made some minor improvements, but not enough to get into the playoffs or even close to getting a ring. So Rockets fans, lets start with change, something that we can believe in and see immediately! New Uniforms!

Reviewed from notes.
Pours a copper-amber color with a good white head and some nice lacing. The nose is pretty much just taken over by a good amount of ginger. The taste is along the same lines--it's ginger, ginger, and more ginger. It's really hard to describe much on this as the spicy ginger is about all that I'm able to taste. Maybe a touch of malt in the background. It gets to be a bit much toward the end, making this a bit hard to drink all that much of.

A: The beer is clear yellowish orange in color and has a moderate amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a finger high off white head that quickly died down, leaving some lacing covering the surface.
S: The nose isn't that strong but has some light aromas of ginger.
T: The initial taste has some malty sweetness with notes of biscuit malts. Like the smell, the ginger flavors don't stand out prominently but are a bit more noticeable towards the finish. No traces of hop bitterness are detectable.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied, thin and smooth on the palate with a light amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is extremely easy to drink, although the ginger isn't really strong enough to make this interesting enough to make me want to try this again.

Dusky gold with maize highlights, topped by a firm cap that is the color of ginger ale and sports frantically popping bubbles on its superior surface. Still though, it hangs around at several fingers for quite some time. Unfortunately, there's almost no lace.
This is the first nose that I've assessed that has stages. The start is citrus peel which quickly morphs into freshly grated ginger root. As a lover (okay, liker) of ginger, it's an aroma that is not only different, but appealing. I'm glad the ginger isn't overly subtle; here's hoping it isn't shy on the palate either.
Juju tastes like a ginger beer should I guess, but it could be improved. First of all, there isn't enough malt. The body is too thin and there's a near complete lack of any malt-derived flavor or sweetness. I understand the need to make a light summer quaffer, but this beer goes too far in that direction. Second, the Saaz hops are too prominent, especially noticed because of the lack of malt. The subtle citrusiness is a nice touch and a welcome compliment to the ginger, but the pungent spiciness of the Saaz is unwelcome.
The Cascade and East Kent Goldings go well together, but clash with the noble hops. Lastly, the ginger isn't strong enough. I know that boosting the spice would turn off more than a few people, but I believe that an herbed/spiced beer should sing the praises of its herb/spice of choice. A hearty ginger 'snap' would be most welcome.
With a few fixes, Juju Ginger could be good. More malt, lose the Saaz, jack up the ginger and cut the carbonation by half. Now that's a beer that I'd buy in a heartbeat. Although I believe that it has too many faults as is, it may be exactly what the boys at Left Hand were shooting for. I'll happily finish the bomber however and will dream of what could have been.

Appearance: Pours a clear amber color with a fluffy white head; leaves some decent lacing around the glass
Smell: Smells a bit like a ginger snap, though the ginger is rather subdued
Taste: A little bit of malt peeks through but is quickly subsumed by the powdered ginger taste; the ginger and the malt blend nicely but I would like to see a stronger hops profile in the finish; it really flattens out at the end, which is disappointing
Mouthfeel: Slightly thin but with a lot of refreshing carbonation
Drinkability: Not bad and has lots of nice flavors; I would just like to see this re-formulated to taste more like a pale ale or an IPA

Interesting.... A lightly flavored ale with a light body and light malt sweetness and character. Very tea-like, herbal, earthy flavors that take on soft, spicy flavors. Of course loaded with ginger that is evident in the aromas and flavor. Hops combined with ginger begin to take on raw oak characteristics. Light, soft, clean finish with a light ginger, oily tingle on the toung. Pretty good, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it again.

Very intresting beer here. Had a ginger beer in the past and it always came off very hot to me, this was a fine exception. Poured a golden yellow, with signigicant white top head that receded leaving a nice layer of sticky white lace. Smell was very difficult to place, lots of spice with a light earthy smell. Taste was very light and refreshing, again lots of spice to it, but nothing overwhelming. Very light feel, grat carbonation and smooth on the palate. Overall this was very drinkable, and I would actually like to get a six pack of this, not bad at all, and not what I was expecting, pleasant suprise.

Thanks to Jeff for sending me this one.
A: The pour is a fairly clear golden color with a finger of white head.
S: Definitely has some ginger smell to it. Fairly citrusy as well, mostly sweet oranges. Some pale malt and bread aromas with a little bit of brown sugar.
T: Flavor-wise, it's not too bad. There is a nice sweetness to it of bread, brown sugar, caramel, and maybe even a little bit of vanilla. The ginger is mild at first, but comes on very strong toward the end.
M: Light to medium in body with a medium level of carbonation.
O: Was expecting a much more intense ginger flavor, but this wasn't overdone.

12 ounce bottle - $1.99 at Total Wine & More in Kennesaw, Georgia. Bottled On: Smudge, 12, 08.
Appearance: Pours a crystal clear, amber body with a foamy, whitish head.
Smell: Pale malts with meager hop scents of spice and ripe lemons with an aroma of ginger root.
Taste: Pale malts with a very, very, very light touch hint and overall sweetness. A few drops of lemon juice. Mildly spicy hops and bitterness. Growing into all this is the piquant, cumulative ginger component. Sip of aquifer water precedes the faintly sweet, faintly spicy ginger finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: A bit light on the ginger, but I'm down with that. I had this a few years ago and thought the ginger was pretty punchy (i.e, obnoxious). This time, it's pretty damned mild. However, if given the choice of too much ginger or not enough, I'll pick the latter every single time.

Really liked the revamped artwork on the bottle for this one. It caught my eye enough that I didn't even think about buying it I just knew I had to. The beer poured out as a light golden color with a fizzy white head on top. Not much head or lacing on this brew at all. The smell of this beer has a healthy amount of Ginger. The taste of the Ginger was pretty intense as well with a bit of malt sweetness in there also. The mouthfeel was pretty good, it had a nice sharp and crisp feeling to it, pretty refreshing too. Overall I am reviewing this one for a second time because I'm much more impressed with this beer now than I was before.

Pours a dark shade of orange with a quick dissapearing head,aroma of course is dominated by fresh ginger kinda sweet and and spicey pretty provacative.Taste is of ginger for sure with a toasted malt flavor that lingers in the finish,tastes better as it warms a little.A pretty unique beer not one I would get to often but not all that bad.

Served in a Dogfish Head shaped pint glass.
With my face aflame from the sun of Dark Lord Day yesterday, I could use some good juju right now. The namesake beer pours a clear amber-straw topped by a short-lived finger of dirty white foam. The nose comprises wheat, light corn, very light mint, light orange peel, and flowers. The taste holds notes of orange peel, nutmeg, ginger, coriander, flowers, and grass. The body is a hefty light/light medium, with a light moderate carbonation and a lightly refreshing finish. Overall, a decently nice brew, nothing special nor anything amazing, but a nice thing to sit and drink on for a little while.

T - Despite a strong ginger aroma, the ginger taste was not overpowering. It was fairly mild. It also had a nice bittersweet quality.
M - It was crisp and smooth. A light-bodied beer.
D - This is drinkable. However, I don't think I could have too many of them at once.

This beautiful deep gold ale clearly delivers a ginger punch without going overboard; and backs it with a lightly sweet maltiness and firm bitterness. It's fairly one-sided, as you might guess, but it is refreshing and enjoyable. On a hot summer day after biking or during a fishing excursion, one of these just might be what the doctor ordered!

Poured from a 12oz bottle into a US tumbler pint glass.
A: The beer is a light amber color with a thin off-white head that fades quickly and leaves a thin lace on the glass.
S: The aroma is of ginger and other spices along with light malts, citrus sweetness and a little bit of hops.
T: The taste mainly consists of ginger & citrus (lemon & orange). The malt character is very light and there's a mild hops presence. The after-taste is slightly sweet.
M: Crisp and a little smooth, light-to-medium body, medium carbonation, clean finish.
D: A little tasty, goes down ok, not filling at all, it could use a bit more of a kick but the ginger flavor does give it an interesting twist, It's a decent beer, but I wouldn't drink more than a couple of these before I started looking for something else.

A - Pours with a large, creamy white head and a golden orange color. Clarity was good, but the second half of the bottle had some wisps of yeast that contributed a dense haze, but no chunks.
S - Strong fresh ginger aroma with slight grassy hops and a bit of caramel malt.
T - Distinct ginger flavor backed with herbal hops and moderate bitterness. The finish is clean without any real lingering flavor.
M - Light, smooth texture with moderate to high carbonation. There is just a little bit of astrengency present.
D - This beer is light and fairly easy to drink with a strong ginger character, but I can't say I really enjoy it. The problem for me here is the type of ginger character; the aroma it good but the flavor is too medicinal and lacks depth. There is none of the spicy, flavorfull ginger that I have occasionally experianced in some other beers. A bit more malt sweetness to balance out the ginger and hops would really help here.

Wow this beer is kind of crazy the finish is definitely fres cut ginger, appears a slightly clouded golden apricot tone with a large billowing white head with a creamy texture. When I popped the cap it started oozing out and I spilled a bit while trying to pour it. Aroma is spicy with some mild citrus notes nice bready biscuit malt character. Flavor wise that finish is hardcore with the ginger tone, I'm guessing mild hops that are pretty much impossible to recognize with the ginger overpowering. A bit one sided on the ginger ample sweetness but sort of an astringent quality arises especially as it warms. Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied, carbonation level is a bit spritzy but not over the top. Drinkability overall, this one is a strange bird worth the experience probably goes well with some Asian cooking maybe some Thai food, or some Jerk chicken since the label is all about the Jamaica saying something about this ale is Irie.

Thomas More College is a college infused with a beauty which only a distinctly classical Catholic culture can attain. Aesthetic beauty permeates the physical campus environment, classical Catholic traditions form the vibrant cultural atmosphere, and the joint pursuit of knowledge is brought to fruition in the finding and love of Truth.
The aesthetically beautiful atmosphere at Thomas More College is equally conducive to both learning and recreation. Situated in the natural beauty of New England with expansive woods and rivers within walking distance, our small, rustic campus combines the charming buildings, seemingly untouched by time, with the modern conveniences essential to college life.
When I first visited Thomas More College during a winter open house, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the classroom walls were lined with floor length windows and bookshelves. During Humanities, Latin and Desire for God, sunlight illuminates the room and the crisp air helps the mind to focus on the task at hand. During these fair-weathered late summer weeks, Natural History class meets in Saint Francis Hall, a grove in the woods behind campus, where we can observe the birds and plants we are studying first hand and learn directly from the Book of Nature! Sometimes the Way of Beauty course even meets in the chapel to sing the Liturgy of the Hours together!
The coursework is challenging but well balanced. Humanities and Desire for God are reading intensive courses, with class periods focusing on writing exercises and teacher guided discussion of the classic texts we have read. Sometimes students continue to discuss texts over meals or sitting on benches beneath the trees on the lawn. Learning Latin entails a lot of memorization homework, but when the sun is out, it is pleasant to sit together in the grass and study. For Natural History assignments, we spend a lot of time in the woods, marsh, or by the bird feeder sketching and observing trees, birds, and botanical specimens, or identifying each species based on the texts we are reading. The slide shows and lectures in Way of Beauty classes are enriched by reading from our 8.36 pound, 996 page art history book!
Aside from the core classes, my favorite aspect of the unique Thomas More curriculum is the Guilds Program! I am in the St. Joseph's Woodworking Guild, led by a skilled craftsman Mr. Jenkins. He has accumulated a wealth of knowledge about his trade and about life as a whole! He shares fascinating facts about the history of hand crafted furniture, stories of early American antiques he has repaired, and tips on what to pay attention to when shopping for fine furniture or cabinetry. He lets us work with various woods and tools, many of which are finely wrought antiques, so well made that they are still in working condition!
Outside of the vigorous academic life, there is a whole lot of fun to be had. On campus, there is a short, pleasant trail along the boundaries, winding through pines, maples, and birches, around a marsh surrounded by ferns, and branching off the stone Marian grotto. The ten minute break between classes is just enough to speed-walk the trail one time around. Groups often go across the street to the YMCA to use the exercise equipment, go swimming, or play team sports (such as soccer, ultimate Frisbee, volleyball, wallyball, or my favorite: basketball). Then we come back hungry for dinner and if the weather is nice, the piazza outside the cafeteria perfect for dining outside! Almost every night, guitars are brought out, students sing, and impromptu "jam sessions" are struck up, sometimes lasting late into the evening…
There are plenty of organized events to look forward to as well. Last week there was a 20's-themed Contra dance with live music in the ballroom and refreshments downstairs in the library. Upcoming events this week include a formal tea party with an archery contest, a trip to Boston for a small retreat, and a pro-life dinner in Manchester! Some students even take private art lessons at a studio in Manchester, and others are rehearsing the play "Arsenic and Old Lace." There are diversions for every interest!
When there are all-college events, the families of the faculty and staff often join us. These families are shining examples of wholesome family life and marriage. During the formal dinner at Convocation, children went around visiting students, and one boy ate his ice cream at our table, absolutely mesmerized by a brilliant retelling of "Little Black Sambo" by one of the young men. Thomas More College is truly blessed with a culture of life!
The wellspring of our lively culture is our faith. Many of the students are Catholic, although people of all faiths feel comfortable here. Our rustic chapel, uniquely designed to fit into the barn, stands as the crown of central campus. It has a welcoming and accessible feel to all students. Its position in the heart of campus makes it convenient for both students and faculty to stop by throughout the day to pray, whether on their way to class or meals. Holy Mass is celebrated every day before dinner and is a beautiful conclusion to a full day of classes, study, and work!

New Orleans then:
New Orleans now:
I remember watching CNN after the levees broke. It was the first time that the traditional media had dared to criticize the naked emperor. Too late, of course, for so many dead in terrorist attacks, needless wars and man-made disasters like the flooding that destroyed the Ninth Ward.
And too late for the tens of thousands who are still living in these:
On September 19, 2005, in a speech given at Brown University, Senator John Kerry said this :
Rarely has there been a moment more urgent for Americans to step up and define ourselves again. On the line is a fundamental choice. A choice between a view that says "you're on your own," "go it alone," or "every man for himself." Or a different view – a different philosophy – a different conviction of governance – a belief that says our great American challenge is one of shared endeavor and shared sacrifice.
Over the next weeks I will address these choices in detail – choices about national security, the war in Iraq, making our nation more competitive and committing to energy independence. But it boils down to this. I still believe America's destiny is to become a living testament to what free human beings can accomplish by acting in unity. That's easy to dismiss by those who seem to have forgotten we can do more together than just waging war.
But for those who still believe in the great tradition of Americans doing great things together, it's time we started acting like it. We can never compete with the go-it-alone crowd in appeals to selfishness. We can't afford to be pale imitations of the other side in playing the 'what's in it for me' game. One thing we know: the last thing America needs is a second Republican Party.
Instead, it's time we put our appeals where our hearts are – asking the American people to make our country as strong, prosperous, and big-hearted as we know we can be – every day. It's time we framed every question – every issue — not in terms of what's in it for 'me,' but what's in it for all of us?
And when you ask that simple question – what's in it for all of us? – the direction not taken in America could not be more clear or compelling.
Let this tragic anniversary be a reminder that conservatism is not just a philosophy that favors the rich over the poor; it is an evil virus that kills all those whom it infects. And our country is on its last gasp. The rule of law – broken, as top government officials commit treason and war crimes with no accountability. The separation of church and state? Almost gone. Economic justice? Please. Education? No, George, our children is NOT learning. Energy? We have solar and wind technology, but we're still invading and occupying countries for their oil.
Do we need a new direction? No. We need to go back to the old one. The Founders based our Constitution on the concept that government exists to improve the lives of its constituents. The only way to do that is to invest in people, not corporations – what I call trickle-up economics.
To do otherwise is to create Katrinas. And Iraqs. And poverty. And housing crises. And…

The adult industry voluntarily enforced testing in the 1990s. This self-regulation idea was founded on knowing that your scene partner has a clean bill of health for personal comfort and peace of mind. And it evolved to accommodate unforeseeable things.
For instance, AIM Healthcare was founded by Sharon Mitchell as the centralized testing facility in 1998 so that no one could fake a test. AHF managed to destroy AIM through legal attacks, making Mr. Marcus' faking a negative syphilis test possible in 2012. Progressive, right? AHF also walked hand-in-hand with Shelley Lubben–a well-documented phony and sex worker predator–and her ridiculous foundation, ultimately propping her up as she engaged prominent media outlets with delusional rants about gang rape and things that were proven later to be all in her 'talks to the moon and plays with ouija boards' head. They also employed two disgruntled ex-performers who contracted HIV to be their spokespeople without disclosing their "paid actor" status during a major campaign. One of these spokespeople is also a well-documented phony, and has a long criminal history to boot. Sound good, so far?
The industry does not want to share HIV among its performers. It may no longer be a death sentence, but men and women who might choose to reproduce some day do not want to contract HIV, and no one wants to medicate for the rest of their lives. Condoms do not prevent STD- and HIV-transmission. They break and tear and are an idiot's epiphany at a first line of defense against STDs and HIV. Testing is the best first line of defense.
So what does AIDS Healthcare Foundation do? They use an exorbitant and extremely questionable amount of time and money through their 501(c)3 non-profit to lobby for… condom police! Why? Because 'the gay industry embraces condoms'. That's Michael Weinstein's genius statement in a video interview here [alternate link here]. Uh… yeah… and they don't reproduce… *pregnant pause for slience, confusion and 'wtf' thought bubbles* … Anti-porn at its scientific finest. Cue Shelley Lubben to talk about her cured-incurable herpes. Woop doop do-do-do do-doop doop doop doop.. (Circus music–in case that needs explaining.)
The inferior method was not only championed through Measure B, it's now being pushed statewide through California State Assembly Bill 332 (AB-332). And we still get the incredible pleasure of the same tired "testing isn't enough"; "the multi-billion dollar porn industry"; "companies like Hustler and Vivid aren't going anywhere" ridiculousness from Weinstein himself along with the usual legislative bullying. It would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic. AHF probably has more money than the entire industry combined–"200 million annually"??–and Hustler and Vivid are not "the porn industry". The actual porn industry is comprised of hundreds of small producers, independent webcam models, etc., and the boom years are over. It is an insanely absurd idea that these smaller producers won't leave California and take their chances fighting for free speech rights and creative expression elsewhere. I suppose we're expecting every producer to make an AHF-style announcement in the LA Times that they are moving to [name your state here]. Sure. Okay. That's not going to happen.
And now, suspiciously, "an anonymous letter" was sent to AHF–not the County Health Department, mind you–informing the anti-porn science geniuses that Immoral Productions is shooting scenes without condoms and being immoral, I mean… illegal. Mark Roy McGrath had an interesting statement to make about it:
"Such acts are known to traumatize vaginal and rectal mucosa and significantly increase the risk of acquiring infectious diseases. Business activities occurring at Immoral Productions pose a substantial risk of bodily harm and life long disability." ~ Full letter here.
Huh? Life long disability? This from an organization that has openly criticized wasting money on finding a cure for HIV because it's treatable? Is that the life long disability? What life long disability are we talking about here? There has not been one HIV outbreak since 2004. And the only solo HIV case? Derrick Burts–the AHF spokesperson with a long criminal history–in 2010, who stated that he contracted HIV on a condom-only shoot outside of the tested talent pool in Florida and was promptly removed from said pool never to work with the tested population ever again. I wouldn't be surprised to find that members of California's governing body who deal with these people on a regular basis chug a gallon of vodka a night just to attempt to bleach the insanity from their brains. You can't make this up.
Anti-porn groups and individuals have one prominent thing in common: A pronounced lack of common sense. They actually think censorship is "progressive". And even if they don't actually believe that, they say so, opting for the Orson Welles 'aliens have landed' hysteria hoping the entire animal population will run right into their trap. It's too cuckoo for words. Yes, let's create an entire department dedicated to policing condoms in porn. There just really aren't more worthwhile causes or ways to aid industry members, and our financially burdened state is just not financially burdened enough.
Listen, I can back education and efforts to further testing awareness because every adult who has sex with multiple performers should submit for regular testing for their own peace of mind–adult industry or no. Common sense is to know your health status and base your sex practices on what best suits you and your partner(s). The behind-the-scenes porn industry is an incredible model for adult sexual practices, period. These people test, then show up to set and have a sober, lucid conversation about their boundaries and preferences before one sexual thing happens. That's a mature approach to sexual conduct. Not club hopping, getting drunk, taking drugs, and hoping for the best. The final product is fantasy, but the lead-up and aftermath is about as mature as it gets in multiple partner sex practices.
As far as I'm concerned, AHF is no different than the Pink Cross Foundation and Michael Weinstein is just a male version of Gail Dines. These people masquerading as caring individuals while their efforts line their own pockets and drain everyone else's is a tedious, disgusting business far worse than some of the seedier sex acts found in porn.

Light with Might: Libec JB-30 Jib Arm Offers Robust Performance but Won't Weigh You Down2/14/2012 8:10 PM Eastern
Libec is a fairly new comer to the world of camera support manufacturers. Although its parent company, Tokyo-based Heiwa Seiki Kogyo Co. Ltd., has been around since 1955, Libec Sales of America was established in just 2007. Both the parent company and the smaller, younger Libec are best known for tripods and tripod accessories, but they are branching out with more elaborate camera support offerings. I had the opportunity to work with Libec's new JB-30 jib arm in the Heavy-Duty Kit configuration, which includes the JB-30 jib arm, T-102 tripod and DL-8 dolly.
The first sales point I had the chance to challenge is the claim that the JB-30's build time is quick and intuitive. Although I've worked with a number of jibs and cranes in my cinematographic career, my background is as an electrician and gaffer, not as a grip, so I'm not the most well versed gripologist out there. Even with that caveat, the very first time I pulled the JB-30 out of the boxes, I found Libec's claim to be true.
Without reading any instructions, without having seen the product prior to that moment, it took me a mere ten minutes to build the jib the first time. And setup time decreased drastically the more I worked with it. I could easily see someone who owns this jib being able to set it up in five minutes or so.
The arm itself comes in a semi-soft carrying case. It's easily transported by one person in a typical vehicle. Out of the case, it sets up quickly and simply. There is a second case for the optional weight kit (standard barbell weights), which is like a small briefcase-sized nylon carrying case. The arm needs to be set up on a platform base, be that a dolly or a set of tripod legs. In this case, I worked with the Libec T-102 heavy-duty tripod, which is wonderfully light, yet quite robust. The tripod doesn't have a built-in spreader, so I used Libec's DL-8 spreader and wheels to keep the legs firmly in place under the weight of the arm.
Weight adjustment on the arm is incredibly easy and very flexible. I was able to use the JB-30 with a Panasonic AG-HPX500 (just under 9 lb.) and the Canon EOS 7D (about 2 lb.) with the same 30 lb. weight kit (two 10 lb. weights and two 5 lb. weights). The rear arm, where the weight attaches, has a telescoping adjustment to change the distance of the counterbalance weight from the fulcrum of the jib. This not only makes balancing the jib incredibly fast and easy, it also allows flexibility in the overall size of the jib. If necessary, you can shorten the length of the counterbalance arm, add more weight, and use the jib in a smaller space. I worked with the JB-30 in a residential location in Los Angeles in a narrow hallway and a living room, both with relative ease.
The 53" reach from the fulcrum to the jib's head doesn't change, but you can shorten the overall footprint of the jib by adjusting the rear telescoping arm. I wish the telescoping arm had some calibration marks on it—then I could quickly reset it to specific lengths for specific setups, which would make the process even quicker and easier. Also, it would be easier to note what kinds of adjustments I needed if I were working with or without common accessories.
Once balanced, which took about two minutes the first time I worked with the JB-30, the jib's action is smooth and fluid. There is no remote adjustment to the head, which features a 100mm bowl mount. There are no stops or breaks for pan or tilt, which I found somewhat disappointing. Also, as a safety feature, it would be nice to be able to lock the pan and tilt.
There are pan and tilt drag adjustments, but they're fairly coarse—really just tension screws that put a bit more friction on the movement. For the pan, there are two friction adjustments, but the variability is realistically more like "drag on" and "drag off." The tilt friction adjustment, oddly enough, is at the head of the jib, which perplexed me. Most of the adjustments are at the fulcrum/back of the jib, yet this one friction knob is at its head.
The arm of the jib is a fixed 53" from fulcrum to center point of the head mount. Its lowest point, assuming you're on the spreader wheels, is 14" to the head's baseplate. Adding a head can quickly get you up to a low point of 20-22", but the JB-30 has an easy underslung option. The mounting bowl can be removed with four threaded bolts and flipped upside down. An included underslung mounting clamp (UM-3) attaches to the upside down tripod head and clamps to the camera's carrying handle.
With the underslung option, you can get your lens as low to the ground as your camera's body will allow. This configuration is a little bit problematic as there are no stops or brakes on the arm's tilt function, so when I used the underslung option with the Panasonic HPX500, the camera would hit the ground before the arm came to a rest at its lowest point. What this means is that if I walked away from the jib and someone bumped it, for example, or something fell off or the weight was improper, the camera would very likely hit the ground.
At the fulcrum of the jib are two mounting points for accessories such as a Libec AS-7 Israeli-type articulated accessory arm for a small monitor.
I also tried out the Libec HM-1 accessory, which is a cap that goes over the rear telescoping arm where the weights are mounted and provides two toothed accessory connections for monitors or pan arms. It's a great position for a pan handle with a zoom/focus controller. Having the pan handle off of the back of the jib allowed for very precise and smooth operation.
As it was the holiday season, I tried out the JB-30 on my Christmas tree. I used a Canon EOS 7D for macro shots of the ornaments. The JB-30's action was smooth and easy, allowing me to do extremely detailed work with ease. The pan handle off the back of the jib with the HM-1 accessory allowed me even more precise control—especially when I was trying moves with a depth of field of less than an inch! I was impressed with the smoothness and precision possible with the JB-30 and how delicate I could make my moves under these extreme conditions.
The JB-30 is robust but lightweight. I feel confident in the construction of the jib—it feels like it can handle a lot of the rigors of real production. It breaks down into one small case for the arm, one case for the weights, and your tripod and spreaders. It is incredibly easy to transport.
The weight mounting bar is a threaded piece of steel that feels very strong, but I question the nylon threads at the back of the jib arm, where you thread the weight mounting bar into the rear telescoping arm of the jib. It feels like these threads could be marred or crack with a little rough handling. Indeed, the back nylon cap on the arm (which is part of the threaded piece) was cracked when I unpacked the jib. Although easily replaced, this seemed to be the weakest spot on the jib.
All in all, I was impressed with the portability, usability and precision of the JB-30. For a portable, one-man jib, it is incredibly smooth and fast. The Heavy-Duty Kit, which includes the JB-30 arm, T-102 tripod and DL-8 spreader dolly, retails for $3,700. That's a little on the high side for this jib arm's reach and capacity, but the professional performance of the JB-30 is worth the price.
Libec JB-30 Jib Arm
PROS: Lightweight, portable, fast and easy setup. Robust, with professional, precise performance.
CONS: No pan/tilt locks, limited pan/tilt friction adjustments.
BOTTOM LINE: A phenomenal portable jib that can be easily transported in nearly any vehicle by one person. Offers truly professional performance with a wide variety of camera possibilities.
MSRP: JB-30 jib arm $2,062.50, JB-30 Heavy-Duty Kit $3,322.50

Shell Earnings: As Bad as Expected, But Changes Are Coming
Earlier this month, Europe's largest oil company — Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE:RDSA)(NYSE:RDSB) — gave its first profit warning since 2004. That warning was a shock to Banco Santander analyst Jason Kenney. Shell had "to pre-announce to get the market to reality, but even so it's a very weak set of results," he wrote. Profit warnings are rare for oil producers, companies that investors value for their slow but steady growth. But weaker-than-expected results appear to be part of an industrywide trend, and the announcement was an inauspicious start to the earnings season for energy companies.
Despite relatively high and stable oil prices, Shell had numerous issues in 2013. The price of brent crude prices, the benchmark for more than half the world's oil, dropped 0.3 percent in 2013, the first time since 2008 that global oil prices did not increase.
On Thursday, the oil producer reported that fourth-quarter profit, excluding onetime items and inventory changes, plummeted 48 percent to $2.9 billion from the $5.6 billion reported in the year-ago quarter. That massive drop matched the figure Shell gave on January 17. The fourth quarter's weak performance has its origins in numerous aspects of the oil producer's business, the company said in its warning. Oil and gas production dropped by approximately 5 percent to 3.25 million barrels per day.

I would really appreciate your vote! Each person can vote for one blog in each category. I'm entered in the Young Adult & Children's category.

Thanks for your consideration! I'd love to go to BEA again and bring back all sorts of ideas and bookish goodies to share with you and my students!

With his down performance in the finals, Chris Bosh's price tag may be decreasing. It was clear in this series that the Heat need a true center a good point guard. If the Wizards were to offer Emeka Okafor (after he opts in) and the number 3 pick (Trey Burke) for Chris Bosh, who would say no?
The trade would be beneficial for both teams, IMO. The Wizards pick up a frontline PF with range, which would vastly improve John Wall's game. The Heat get a true rim protector in Okafor, as well as a real difference-maker at the PG position that Chalmers just doesn't offer.
After the trade both Wall-Beal-Ariza-Bosh-Nene and Burke-Allen-Wade-James-Okafor seem like better lineups than their current states.
What do you think?

NORTH ATTLEBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Police say a Rhode Island woman is facing charges for allegedly stealing from a Good Samaritan who gave her ride after her car broke down.
North Attleborough police say 24-year-old Erin Gilbert of Providence, R.I., stole the pocketbook of a woman who gave her a ride to her boyfriend's home in Pawtucket, R.I., after her car broke down at the Emerald Square mall on Saturday.
Police tell The Sun Chronicle (http://bit.ly/13BlUIC ) that Gilbert went to the mall after stealing another woman's purse from an East Providence gym and trying to use stolen credit cards at three stores. The stores rejected the sales.
Gilbert was ordered held without bail over the weekend pending her arraignment scheduled for Monday. It was not clear if she had a lawyer.

Imagine being in college... and overseeing South Dakota's universities. Well, an SDSU sophomore is doing just that.
Governor Dennis Daugaard has appointed Joe Schartz to the Board of Regents. He'll serve a two-year term and act as a voting member. Schartz is majoring in journalism and agriculture--- and minoring in political science. He also serves as a student association senator at SDSU.

It's that time of the week! Check out the 12 reasons after the jump:
12. Hall of Fame Quarterback, Tony Romo. He's the reincarnation of Troy Aikman! Look at all of those playoff games that he's won.
And what's worse! That jerk broke up with Jessica the day before her birthday!
11. Head Coach Jerry Jones. If he's such a mastermind in moneymaking and football, why doesn't he just fire Wade Phillips and put himself in that position? He'll be able to make the bad decisions from the field, all the same.
10. The ultimate misnomer: America's Team. After earning the moniker through an NFL films highlight reel that recounted a disappointing season, in true Cowboys fashion, Dallas adopted the name and marketed the sh** out of it.
9. Honestly-It's tradition. For everybody.
8. Famed jerk/cyclist (in that order) Lance Armstrong is named after famed pervert/Cowboy (in that order) Lance Rentzel. Armstrong left his wife after she helped him beat cancer, then left Sheryl Crow after she got cancer. Lance Rentzel exposed himself to a 10-year-old girl on a playground. Texas does this to people.
7. CMT has a TV show about their cheerleaders called Making the Team. I get it. They are hot girls trying to be cheerleaders, but let's get to the heart of the issue. These people are actually fighting to earn a job in Dallas. Yuck.
6. It took a billion dollar stadium to get anyone to care about the cowboys, again. What is the cost for next year.
5. This is awesome.
4. Mormon Teen-idol Donny Osmond, drug addict/cowboy Michael Irvin, and crook/Texas politician Tom DeLay are all contestants on Dancing With the Stars. I know that Osmond isn't from Texas, but he totally should be.
3. The Saints have a losing record against them. Currently 8-14. The last game was played in 2006, when the Saints lit up Irving, Texas, 42-17, and took a knee at the goal line. Still, that was homage to Parcells. No respect for Wade Phillips.
2. Speaking of Wade Phillips. Wade Phillips. He has a losing record as head coach of the saints.
1. The new scoreboard. Not only does it take away from the viewing experience, they totally hyped us up to see some screwy punts this season. Major letdown.

Unintended Consequences
One thing I've been discovering is the role of unintended consequences in my life. My husband, Leif, and I talk about this a lot. He tends to look at people and think that if someone chooses something, then it's their responsibility to live with the consequences. While I think there's some real truth in that idea, I also see many people who if they knew the full breadth of the consequences would have made a different decision. These are the unintended consequences of our decisions - and they happen in my life and everyone I know.
I have to make dozens of decision every day and while I can predict a percentage of the outcomes with certainty, the reality is there are all kinds of outcomes that are simply unintended.
Some good. Some bad.
A while back, I realized that I desperately needed a prescription filled 20 minutes before the pharmacy closed. Since the drive took about that long, I knew I didn't have a minute to spare. I raced to the pharmacy and called in the refill on the way. Pulling into a spot, I foolishly miscalculated the distance between my vehicle and the one next to me and dented the bumper. Afraid to move the vehicle and cause greater damage, I jumped out and ran to the pharmacy - the much needed prescription still on my mind. After paying for the prescription, I ran back outside where I discovered a less-than-happy driver of the other vehicle examining the damage.
I explained the situation, begged for her forgiveness, and promised to pay all damages. The middle-aged woman was slightly aghast at what had happened and for good reason: She had just purchased the vehicle, her first brand new car, the day before.
I could not grovel enough. When the repair bill arrived, I quickly delivered the check and a copy of my latest book to her with a sincere letter of apology.
To my surprise, I received a thank-you note that said, "If anyone could have hit my car, I'm glad it was you."
What do you do with that? When I think the back over the events, I find myself second guessing where I went wrong and where I went right. If I had paid more attention to the prescription bottle's contents, I would not have had to rush to the pharmacy which led to the miscalculation in parking which resulted in the accident which led to a difficult day for someone else which miraculously turned around into being a somewhat good or at least not terrible experience for someone else. The experience of filling a prescription is laced with all kinds of unintended consequences. Then again, most of our experiences are filled with them.
We plan for A and get B or D or Z.
We hope for A and get C or F or lots of Y's.
We pray for A and wonder if our prayers were heard at all.
Even in our sharpest plans, our solid hopes and our steady prayers, we face the reality of unintended consequences. So how do we deal?
By embracing grace and remembering that despite unintended consequences, God can redeem it all. By expressing grace to others, and reminding them that sometimes things just happen as a result of unintended consequences. And in the process of embracing and expressing grace, we need to remember to laugh, giggle, and remember that this too, will pass.
We tend to assign label those unintended consequences things like "spiritual warfare" or "tests", transforming ourselves into victims of our own limited, broken humanness.
Thanks for the encouragement to face...embrace, even...consequences. I'm checking my prescription bottles right now!
Really loved this post. Honest. Graceful. Encouraging.
I have a hard time understanding God's loving character in conjunction with our free will as believers. This comes into play with your piece on choices and consequences. When does God step in? When does he intercede on our behalf? Sometimes, it feels like mere "chance" with our Christian-ese interpretation tagged on to make us feel better. Do you ever feel like our prayers don't really change God's mind? I've been a believer for most of my life and went to Wheaton College, so I've been aptly charged and trained; however, it frequently feels like Deism could be an adequately logical conclusion. Any thoughts?
Those 'unintended consequences' are often not unintended to God. Yes, we have free will, but God uses the choices He knows we are going to make to orchestrate circumstances to bring about His perfect will.
Sometimes beauty comes from the ashes of our consequences. It may take a long time to see such a thing, as it has taken me nearly six years to find some in my life. But they're there, aren't they?
Your husband's harsh judgment on others, however, is exactly what kept me from being able to find the silver lining to the black cloud that I made over my own head. Yes, I made decisions. Yes, I had to deal with the consequences. But my God offers grace and forgiveness, He welcomes me with open arms when I repent. When Christians offer up such harsh statements like, "You chose this, deal with it," we're not offering the same grace, the same love as our Lord. I'm not saying to put on rose-colored glasses and ignore their sin. A statement of, "Yes, you did this, this happened and now let's see what we can make of all of it," is far more appropriate.
I have been so blessed by unintended consequences. I've paid dearly, of course, but I refuse to be put down by fellow Christians and non-Christians alike. My life is a blessing because of good and bad decisions alike. "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." Romans 2:8 is a beautiful way to look at it, don't you agree?
That should say 8:28 but my youngest son is helping me type today. Another blessing indeed!

I stopped watching today when I realized two things: The writer is faced with two problems. First, the starman cannot get the girl because he lives forever, she doesn't and she cannot travel with him and secondly a so-far useless character was introduced (the guy who proposed to the female lead). I think this guy was introduced to give the female lead a fall back position while the male lead goes dancing among the stars for another 400 years. All of this means an unhappy ending rivaling Fashion ... Anyways, I hope I am wrong, wrong and will pick it back up at the ending.
Two comments about translation: the title, "Pretty Man" in English could only refer to a gay person and the expression "seduced" doesn't mean the same thing in both Korean and English. In English, it means one sex conquers the other including to bed them.
It's been months since I actually anticipated next weeks episodes. Going to miss this one when it ends and we go back to the normal forgetable shows.

Great filter for the price!

Comments about No-Toil Dual Stage Foam Air Filter:
Overall this was a great filter for the price. I pulled the old filter off my kx60 and it fell apart! Opened this baby up, oiled it and installed it. The thing screamed like a little demon! This filter gives great flow! Only issue was that I had to make my own center hole for the tightening screw. But that was it!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Fit Like a Glove
By BlackAdder
from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida
See all my reviews
This No-Toil filter is one of the best looking filters I have ever used. I have tried other major brands but none of those have the two stage lighter & more dense foam material for blocking out the dirt. I ordered this for my KLF 300 Bayou and the fit for that application is unique. This filter fit like a glove over the stock filter cage and the seams holding the filter together are well engineered. To fit over the cage it took lots of pulling but this No-Toil filter took it in stride. I would buy one again for any of my other off-road bikes. Great Product.

Basim Elkarra, 32, Sacramento
"Once someone yelled at my sister, 'Go back to where you came from!'" said Elkarra, director of the Sacramento Valley chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations. "They seemed confused and puzzled when my sister, who happens to be a doctor, responded in flawless English, 'I am from here.' "
Life became infinitely more complicated for Elkarra and his family when terrorists attacked America 10 years ago today. Many American Muslims have felt the need to passionately defend their faith and their backgrounds, and to make clear that they do not hold the same values as the men who carried out the attacks.
Elkarra, who is married with a child, has experienced the humiliation of security "profiling," including being held up for hours in Puerto Rico while returning from his honeymoon trip to the British Virgin Islands in 2006, he said. "Security agents at the airport apologized, but said we would have to wait," he recalled. "Another time in New York as I was about to board a plane, I was pulled out of line and searched in front of everyone."
Elkarra said he was as shocked as any American when, following his morning prayers on 9/11, he turned on the TV and saw the flaming towers in New York. One of his thoughts: " 'Oh God. Please don't let the people who are responsible be Muslims.' "
"Shortly thereafter, I felt called to duty, not one on the battlefield but one that would build bridges between communities," Elkarra said. "I felt as an American Arab Muslim that it was my duty to bridge gaps at a time when people were calling for a clash of civilizations."
Elkarra's organization strives to do just that, bringing law enforcement, ethnic and interfaith communities together in an effort to build good will and understanding.
Despite the challenges in a post-9/11 world, Elkarra said, "I have been blessed to also witness the beauty of my fellow Americans firsthand."
Last year at the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament in Sacramento, he said, hundreds of people of all faiths gathered to hold a Quran blessing following news that a pastor in Florida was planning to publicly burn the document. One after the other, the participants placed a rose on top of the Quran. "Let there be peace on Earth and let it begin with me," they said.
Editor's note: This story was changed Sept. 14 to correct that Basim Elkarra has one child.

What does September 1, 2011 have in common with May 16, 1916?↵
On both dates, the Philadelphia Phillies completed a four-game sweep of the Cincinnati Reds in Cincinnati.
Between those dates, by my count, the Phillies played 74 four-game series in Cincinnati. The Phillies were swept by the Reds in 13 of those series, without sweeping even one of their own. But now they've done it, after more than 95 years.↵
(The Phils also played 14 five-game series and two six-game series in Cincinnati. They didn't sweep any of those, either.)↵

Hi there, I am planning a climbing trip to Dolomites in September 2014. It will be my first trip to Dolomites and I wonder if anyone can recommend the best way to hook up with some locals climbers. Ideally I would like to find someone familiar with area ... get in more climbing and less trying to find good climbs. Is there anything like Euro mountain project or climb find?
Hi Ivan, I live in Europe and plan to spend week or two in Dolomites in early September but at this moment none of my climbing partners are available that time. Please contact me if you don't mind doing long easy routes. I climbed near Cortina before and can lead around UIAA IV multipitch there, ~5b 5c single pitch sport. I know other dolomite groups too (mtb, via ferrata)
Hi mrcn and thanks for responding. I am planning to be in Europe all September and spend at least two weeks in Dolomites. Would be great if we can hook up for some classic climbs. I will be coming from US, have years of experience, did climb great deal in Utah, Nevada and California including some big walls. Never climbed in Europe though. I did not finalized logistics for the trip but I can be very flexible. Where in Europe you live?
