Dan Henderson is an MMA Legend. I'm sure none of use will argue that he is one of the greatest fighters of all time. He has faced a whose-who of MMA through out his glorious career. Unlike some fighters he didn't just face big names he actually beat them. Guys like Rich Franklin, Shogun Rua, Vitor Belfort, Wanderlei Silva, Fedor Emelianenko, and others have all tasted defeat at the hands of Dan Henderson. Dan is facing a tough task in defeating Jon Jones, but people are speaking about the fight like it has already happened With virtually every story involving Jon Jones lately it seems like everyone has forgotten that he's fighting Dan Henderson.
It all first became noticeable after UFC 148. The predominant story after that was everyone wanting Jon Jones and Anderson Silva to set up a "Super Fight". For a solid two weeks there were stories popping up about why they should fight, who is scared of who, which one should call out the other, and why sponsorships don't matter. People seemed to forget that Jon Jones has a fight coming up. The champion even sent a tweet out reminding people of that fact:
Hey guys, I'll be fighting Dan Henderson September 1st for the light heavyweight championship of the world...just in case you forgot
Of course no one cared because apparently a guy with so much power that his punches are nicknamed like they're a pro wrestling finish(H-bomb >>> WMD btw) is a non-factor.
This further continued when Dana White announced that on UFC on Fox 4 the winner would get a title shot. There were probably less than 10 people who thought, "Those guys could be some interesting fights for Dan Henderson." The rest of us nerd raged because we felt none of them deserve a rematch against Jon Jones. Even though it was apparently expanded to every LHW on that card besides Wagner Prado the outcries stayed the same. Outside of possibly Vera would you like to see any of those fighters face Dan Henderson for the title? I find all of those interesting fights for him. No one is thinking that though.
Hell, Dana White himself even felt the same way during the press conference. At least one time he mentioned that the winner of Saturday's show would be the "next guy to face Jon Jones." People talk about how hard Weidman is to market for Anderson Silva, but it seems like they're gonna have one hell of a time marketing this fight. There are lots of people who think Chris Weidman has a shot at beating Anderson. Many people hope that Dan lands a punch and KOs Jon, but few think he will.
Dan Henderson is currently ranked as the second best light heavyweight in the world and he's facing the highest ranked light heavyweight in Jon Jones. Going by the current betting odds of their fights people are giving Brandon Vera(ranked 25th) a better chance of upsetting Shogun Rua(ranked 4th) than Henderson has at upsetting Jones. What's worse is people are giving debuting Wagner Prado a better chance of upsetting Phil Davis(#6) than they are giving Dan Henderson of winning. This is a guy that knocked out Fedor!
Dan Henderson is clearly the underdog in this fight and he is the underdog for a variety of reasons. This article also isn't about me trying to con anyone into betting on Dan Henderson. The point of this is for us to give the man some respect. It seems that the only person who is not completely overlooking Dan Henderson is Jon Jones. The man at least deserves to actually fight and lose at UFC 151 before we pretend like he does not exist. Stranger things have happened in MMA

On Wednesday, Roger Keith, 43, of Kemp, was sentenced to 10 years in the prison for indecency with a child by exposure, which is a third degree felony.
In January, investigators with Henderson County Sheriff's Office received a report about the indecency. During the course of the investigation, the investigator interviewed the victim's mother and learned that the victim reported Keith would ask her to "talk dirty" to him as he pleasured himself while watching pornographic material on television. This occurred from the time the victim was six years old and lasted over a period of eight years.
The victim's mother testified at trial about the impact Keith's crime had on her family, stating that her whole family has been traumatized by his actions. She also testified that Keith had two personas, one in which he appeared to be a devoted churchgoer and godly man, and a darker side he hid from the public.
After pleading guilty to the indictment, Keith's attorney asked the court to consider giving Keith probation. Assistant District Attorney Jenny Palmer urged the court to consider the severity of the crime and asked the court to sentence Keith to the maximum sentence of 10 years in the Texas Department of Corrections.
District Attorney Scott McKee was very pleased with the maximum sentence. He also reminded parents, teachers and caregivers to be on the lookout for anything out of the ordinary when it comes to children.
"Many people that victimize our youth are right under our noses," said McKee. "In this case, Keith was a wolf in sheep's clothing. Thank God, a family member stepped forward."
McKee also plans to lobby the legislature to look at passing laws with tougher sentences in indecency cases. McKee indicated that indecency with a child by exposure is the same level of offense as some forgeries.
Keith will be required to register as a sex offender upon his release from prison.
The 10 year sentence was the maximum allowed under the law. Keith was
charged with Indecency with a Child by Exposure, a third degree felony.
Assistant District Attorney's Jenny Palmer and Danny Cox prosecuted the
case for Scott McKee's District Attorney's Office.

Jim Boylan and Pete Myers had all bought into Scott Skiles' way of running the Chicago Bulls, and if Jim Paxon thought that Boylan would be different, he's naive.
What is shocking is their contempt for Paxon's view that young players like Joakim Noah and Tyrus Thomas be handled differently. The situation with Noah is the most alarming. Myers, who I never considered had a brain, was willing to give Noah next to no minutes when he took the reins of coach. Boylan took it another step when in last night's game against the Milwaukee Bucks he gave Noah no floor time. I'm surprised that no member of the Chicago media found it important to ask Boylan his reason for hitting Noah with a DNP.
This behavior by the Bulls coaching staff can only have damaging effects on young players like Noah and Thomas. This habit of giving Thomas short stints and a quick hook must be eating away at this young player's already fragile psyche. It's a damaging strategy that has effectively been employed by Skiles.
What disgusts me is that Boylan will attempt to make up for the slight by giving Noah some significant playing time when the Bulls meet the New York Knicks in New York tomorrow (Sunday). Nice way to play tug-o-war with a young player's emotions. Boylan might be secretly hoping that Noah will be so pumped up and bent on making a good showing before his New York fans that he might try too hard and and not have a good game, giving them a good excuse to pull the plug early.
Boylan is nothing more than a journeyman assistant with no philosophy or ideas of his own. Paxon should have fired the entire staff and brought in a new coach with his own staff.
To think that we have to put up with this Skiles clone and his other acolytes for the rest of the season is highly disturbing.

Las Vegas will soon be under an excessive heat warning in addition to an air quality advisory. So it's a good time to make sure you're well hydrated if you plan to be outdoors. Although, for someone with diabetes, drinking plenty of water should not be their only concern in hot weather.
Southern Nevada is bracing for temperatures that will hover around 110 degrees for the next few days. Las Vegas nurse and diabetic, Theresa Moore says the heat won't keep her indoors. At the same time, she'll test her glucose levels more often.
"I tend to test more because through trial and error, you discover that dehydration causes your sugars to go up. So I try to bring a water bottle wherever I go and drink. And if I feel my mouth is a little dry, I always test," said Moore.
Darlene Allen, a diabetes educator with valley hospital -- says that while diabetics need to drink plenty of fluids to avoid heat exhaustion, they should avoid beverages that are high in sugar, including most sports drinks. Moore prefers adding a sugar-free mix to her water.
But when it's this hot, dehydration isn't the only concern. Protecting the feet from hot pavement is also vital -- to avoid a serious infection that for many diabetics, has led to amputation.
"People with diabetes often have neuropathy, and they can't feel their skin burning. And they can have sores end up being ulcers. So that's something really, really important in the summer," said Moore.
Ozone levels are also up across the valley, and may aggravate certain diabetes-related complications such as heart disease. For more on the subject, click here.

Trachoni- Sovereign Bases Area Police were on Tuesday night investigating a fatal fire at a Trachoni home.
According to initial reports, the charred remains found at the scene are thought to belong to a 58 year-old man who was born blind.
The reports said that the man had been eating with a neighbour at their house just before the fire broke out there. The friend left for work, telling Ioannou to close the door behind him when he was ready to go home.
Amongst investigations into the cause of the fatal blaze, the police is investigating whether Ioannou, who was reportedly a smoker, may have dropped a butt or ash, setting off the fire.

Hiring process information for an interview at Brighton Collectibles
Brighton Collectibles often makes job opportunities available online. As a large network of stores primarily operating out of shopping malls, applicants looking for work at Brighton Collectibles stores must often access available employment opportunities through the shopping center websites. Brighton Collectible also accepts hiring forms and other employment documents from candidates in-person. Depending on the need for new workers at each location, applicants may spend as little as two or three days in the Brighton Collectibles hiring process and as much as four or five weeks.
In most cases, the retail chain first requires workers to participate in initial phone screenings. The phone interview portion of the Brighton Collectibles hiring process involves a brief telephone conversation between staffing representative and applicant. During the phone interview, applicants respond to very basic questions like: "Why do you want to work here?" and "When are you available to meet for a job interview?" Applicants' performance in the Brighton Collectibles phone interview may lead to a face-to-face session with a manager.
Both entry-level candidates and aspiring career professionals sit through at least one Brighton Collectibles job interview. The interview questions used to screen candidates during the hiring sessions build on the questions asked during the phone interview stage of the process. Brighton Collectibles interview questions delve into personality traits related to retail sales. A prime example of such a question includes, "Do you consider yourself an organized individual?" Managers field more intensive interview questions related to supervising subordinate workers, maintaining supply stocks, and ensuring customer satisfaction. Most managerial Brighton Collectibles interview questions exist in the form of hypothetical scenarios posed to gauge reaction like: "If you were out of a certain item and a customer came up to you and asked for it, what would you say/do?" or "How would you ensure high-standards of customer service?"
The Brighton Collectibles interview process takes roughly a week for entry-level associates to complete and up to a couple months for aspiring managers to navigate. Applicants should exude exemplary professionalism throughout the entire process and dress accordingly for each job interview. Brighton Collectibles asks employees to wear presentable and work-appropriate clothing while on-the-clock. Candidates should take cue from the average dress of Brighton Collectibles associates and wear similar outfits during the hiring process. Strong but friendly personalities also benefit prospective workers due to the consistent customer interaction involved in most jobs available. Portray a team-player ready to help others and remain diligent at all times to gain favor during the hiring process and potentially a job offer with the nationwide retail chain.

47. Paul Maritz, VMware CEO
Compensation: $1.6 million
VMware more than doubled its profits in 2011 and grew revenue by 32 percent, yet Maritz saw his compensation cut by more than half. He received a $750,000 salary and $815,625 bonus, but no equity awards (in 2010 his package included stock awards valued at $3.9 million).

46. Jeff Bezos, Amazon.com
Compensation: $1.7 million
CEO Bezos' $1.7 million pay package -- which is equal to his 2010 compensation -- included his $81,840 salary plus personal security-related perks worth $1.6 million. Amazon's revenue came in at $48.1 billion, which is up 41 percent compared to $34.2 billion in 2010. Net income, however, took a fall, plunging 45 percent to $631 million in 2011 compared to $1.2 billion in 2010.

So what did we learn last night? Favors, if he stays healthy will surely become a dominant PF in this league. Learning where to position yourself, how to play hard w/o drawing fouls is all from experience and from being taught.
An old pro coach told me once that the NBA, more than any other sport league, requires teaching to help good players become great ones, or okay players to become good ones.
There is so much we do not see as fans, behind the scenes. Everyone and there mother knew Melo wanted out of Denver. I still hold firm that Cousins was the better 'Trade Bait' and with all the Noah talk, obviously Denver is happy to get a Center back as the main piece.
It leads me to believe that 'Trade Bait' wasn't in the Nets thinking. They saw greatness in Favors and want a shot at having their own great player for years to come.
When Melo became available, after the big 3 fallout, we obviously got desperate and were apt to do something drastic.
The Knicks look like they are currently the front runner for Melo now. They got a draft pick, and they will trade players in a 3 way deal to pry Melo, even though Denver probably doesn't want to trade with them.
Could TWill, Murphy, and 2 Draft picks be enough, and better deal for Denver? I think so. What do you think?
MrDollarBills made a great point about Devin Harris. If he isn't for real, if he is always going to get hurt and won't be a winner, then maybe his huge contract, instead of Murphy's expiring one, has got to go.
TWill, Devin Harris (to another team), and 3 first round picks? Is that good enough? I want to see the Knicks beat that. if they do, and we really think we need Melo, then we can re-visit the possibility of Favors.
Either way, I really do think we are in the driver's seat now, and I will hold off on my NJ Nets Jersey purchase until I have an idea where the heck this team wants to go player-wise.

Riding on the City of New Orleans
Riding on the City of New Orleans:Three days after Hurricane Katrina battered the Gulf Coast, bloggers are back to playing political hardball—and some conservatives are swinging for the other team. Of most interest are Bush's attitude toward FEMA and the Army Corps of Engineers, and his public handling of the disaster.
"I'm not inclined to view the ongoing nightmare on the Gulf Coast through the prism of politics," writes Ed Kilgore of the Democratic Leadership Council at progressive salon TPMCafe, "but there's one issue that cannot be avoided: questions about the competence of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, an entity that has clearly suffered from a major de-emphasis in its primary mission during the Bush administration, after achieving a real reputation for competence under Clinton's appointee James Lee Whitt." (Political Animal Kevin Drum outlines the recent history of FEMA here; Internet tabloid Sploid already smells a FEMA scandal.)
At Talking Points Memo, scrupulous liberal Joshua Micah Marshall points to the forced resignation, in 2002, of former Mississippi Republican Rep. Michael Parker as head of the Army Corps of Engineers, for criticizing administration cuts to hurricane preparation and flood control. Marshall suggests Bush prioritized loyalty over what now appears to be responsible policy. "In any case," he writes, "we can understand the magnitude of this event and hold the administration to account for its lack of preparation. One doesn't cancel out the other, as much as the president and his defenders might want them to."
In a media appearance some see as echoing his widely criticized response in the early hours of Sept. 11, President Bush told Good Morning America viewers, "I don't think anyone anticipated the breach of the levees."
"I swear, this is the Bush administration in a microcosm," says the Washington Monthly's stalwart Political Animal Kevin Drum. "Everyone was anticipating a breach of the levees before Katrina hit. … Does Bush genuinely not know this? Or is he just so comfortable lying about stuff like this that he doesn't give it a second thought? And which is worse?" At the National Review Online, a Corner reader says the president's difficulty shows the inability of conservatives to emote. "Emoting would be good," replies contributor Rich Lowry. "But a real sense of being in charge and getting it would have been even better."
"Bush blew this first one big time, and needs to be prodded to improve, not apologized for," writes staunch Corner conservative John Podhoretz. "Look, it's not too much to say that the continued viability of his presidency resides in how he and the administration respond in the next week." At PowerLine, conservative lawyer John Hinderaker defends Bush. "I'm frankly left speechless at efforts by various liberals and media personalities," he says, "to blame the Bush administration for the fact that conditions are tough in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. It's hard for me to believe that many people would take this kind of cheap shot seriously."
Others ask questions that dwarf partisan politics. "Should New Orleans be rebuilt? Or how much of it should be?" asks critic Jeff Jarvis in a provocative post at BuzzMachine (Pundita has a similar thought). "Having visited the city often in my last job, I was always struck by its poverty and its lack of a workable economy," writes Jarvis. "I'm not suggesting that what's left of New Orleans should be bulldozed and abandoned. But I will suggest that, indeed, the city may need to be reinvented."
Plenty rush to comment at BuzzMachine. "Chicago was rebuilt after the great fire. San Francisco was rebuilt after the great earthquake," recalls Dennis Mosher. "The rebuilt New Orleans will be a big improvement over the old version — as were Chicago & SF. Just keep Bourbon St. the way it is." Reader DB thinks the city is an ecological lost cause. "It's insane to flush more money into this bowl of futility," he writes. Others make an ethico-patriotic, rather than economic, case, that the country would be poorer culturally without the Big Easy. "By all means rebuild it!" writes Chris Barsanti of Vast Wasteland. "The fact that it makes no sense is one of its greatest attractions — and unlike other cities that make absolutely no sense (LA, Phoenix), this one actually has a soul."
Confederate Yankee Bob Owens is a rare voice on the other side of the ledger. "To paraphrase, rebuilding the same city in the same spot and expecting a different result is the definition of what?" he asks.
"Only a Yankee could ask the question," admonishesThe Fat Guy, a Texan. "Now if the question is, should it be rebuilt 100% with 100% federal tax dollars, that's valid. But like some say, let's block the breeches, put out the fires and bury the dead before the question even gets asked."

A lot of students get great grades - but it can get a little trickier when you're balancing great grades with a lot of school involvement - and working two jobs.
Somehow today's Scholar of the Week makes it all fit into the 24 hours a day she's given.
There's no question if our Scholar of the Week Brittany Cleveland is ready for college.
"I'm excited to meet new people, it excites me," says Brittany.
This Sisseton High School senior is involved in dozens of activities, carries a loaded class schedule and keeps a sky high G.P.A., but that's not all.
"Not only is she a star student, she also has jobs so you have to be organized or you would fail at something," says teacher Sharon Prendergast.
So how does this star student stay sane?
Brittany explains, "Sometimes I take a couple hours. If you don't, you don't get anything done anyway."
It's safe to say Brittany Cleveland makes the most of each day.
"I love little kids and riding horses and helping on the farm, there's not much extra time - I'm always studying."
Whetstone Valley Electric Cooperative is sending Brittany a hundred dollar scholarship for being today's Scholar of the Week.
That's a local Touchstone Energy Cooperative.

Misdiagnosed Miscarriage
Though it is a sad reality, miscarriage is becoming more and more common due
to several factors such as age, physical and psychological conditions, health problems, the woman's lifestyle,
and the like. Often women are frightened of the idea of having a miscarriage and are twice as scared when
told by their doctors that they are to miscarriage soon. But there are many
instances when a doctor would diagnose one's pregnancy as "about to end in miscarriage" but the result is a
healthy and problem-free pregnancy. This is known
as a misdiagnosed miscarriage, which can be very confusing since most diagnoses are based on factors
that lead to a miscarriage that is very likely to happen.
A lot of things can lead
to a misdiagnosed miscarriage.
One of these is confusion on the date of the woman's conception and the instances
of not being able to detect a fetal heartbeat during the first ultrasound. In this case, your doctor would
most likely request you to have a follow-up ultrasound to make sure that it isn't a misdiagnosed
miscarriage. Another reason why misdiagnosed miscarriages happen is slow hCG or human chorionic
gonadotropin levels. HCG is also known as the
pregnancy hormone, so a slow rising of hCG levels would point to a possibility of a miscarriage.
But you have to remember that there are pregnancies that go through periods of
slow-rising hCG levels as well and still end up successful in birth. There are many instances of
hCG levels rising really slowly, some of which include having a heterotopic pregnancy or vanishing twin
syndrome wherein one baby dies while the other twin remains healthy. Therefore, it is important
to consult your doctor and go through more tests and examinations once these things occur during your
There are also other things
that could lead to a misdiagnosed miscarriage such as vaginal bleeding during week 1 to 2 of the pregnancy, a
tilted uterus or a bicornuate uterus, and the decreased number of pregnancy symptoms felt during the
pregnancy. For vaginal bleeding, though it is a symptom of a threatened miscarriage, it could also mean
that the embryo is implanting itself onto the uterine wall causing the woman to experience some vaginal
bleeding. With the case of a tilted or bicornuate uterus, the fetus can be hidden and therefore the
doctor won't be able to detect or examine the fetus during the ultrasound. These are things that usually
lead to a misdiagnosed miscarriage, but a good 40% to 50% percent of women who were misdiagnosed due to such
instances were able to have a successful pregnancy in the end.
It is very important that you
don't lose hope if your doctor tells you that you had a miscarriage or are about to have one in the
future. You should get a second opinion at least and go through examinations such as an ultrasound
before making a serious decision about your pregnancy. It would be very devastating to
go through surgery or a D&C procedure due to a misdiagnosed miscarriage, so make sure that you gather enough
information before anything else.

text: Phil Steele unleashed his bowl projections which has been a good barometer for bowl games. What I find interesting is the fact that he has 9 teams going bowling from the Big Ten. When you think about that plus Penn State not being bowl eligible he thinks at least 10 teams from the Big Ten will get 6 wins. After looking at it though I saw that Purdue was left off his bowl projections. He even has IU making a bowl game, what a slap in the face to this program.

I do wish the Gadget show was so i-biased, or apple-ocentric. Even the report showed the ipad has some major failing i.e no flash playing, but the report turns this to a plus saying that its making people develop apps!!! What? Also the camera is nowhere near the other two. But wait what is the final score..ipad still top mainly due to there being most apps. It was a similar story with the iphone test. I have an ipod, because its the best, but give me a xoom and a desire anyday.Report as inappropriate

Typical gadget show bull, It was quite clear that video recording was poor and lack of flash meaning no video is also a big minus,.. but hey it wins anyway because apple made it,... This is why you can never take the gadget show seriously,.. at a guess my thoughts are that whoever pays them the most money gets the top spot. Their reviews are always childish and biased and even when they prove to you that something else is better they will promote their favoured product rather than the one that deserves recognitionReport as inappropriate

Slightly baffling - the Xoom outdid the Blackberry on every test and ended up with the same mark. The comments for the Xoom and iPad in the report don't tally with the final mark - watch the report and make up your own mind rather than blindly following the G rating... I'm agnostic in the whole Apple debate but there does seem to be a hint of bias on the final reckoning here...Report as inappropriate

According to a recent report from the U.S. Department of Labor, 200 thousand new jobs were added nationwide in the past month.
Department officials are hoping those numbers will translate into increased hiring over the coming months.
According to the most recent numbers, Aberdeen has 1457 job openings.
Business at Hub City Incorporated is booming.
For more than 100 years Hub City has been manufacturing closed gear drives for clients all over North America.
"We have a very broad base and we have 3500 distributor locations around the country, we also have over 4000 customers," Hub City, Inc, Vice President/General Manager Jim Campbell said.
Campbell says having a diverse market has helped to keep Hub City in business for more than a century.
According to Executive Director Julie Johnson with Absolutely! Aberdeen, it's that diversity that has helped companies like Hub City to continue to prosper in South Dakota's business climate.
"We're very blessed to be in this situation, but a whole lot of people can be thanked for this, Johnson said. "They took a lot of risk, and the leadership and the followership of our community positioned Aberdeen to continue to grow."
The Hub City plant in Aberdeen employs around 400 people.
Campbell says having so many buyers allows the company to continue to expand, because when one market or industry is down another is up.
He says having so many different customers has allowed them to continually add jobs.
"We're always looking for employees and we are constantly in the hiring process. So we don't go out of the hiring process," Campbell said.
Campbell says most of the people being hired are from the immediate area.
He says Hub City currently has about 20 openings, which he says for in the first time in the company's history that he's aware of; they're having a hard time filling.

Buffalo Chicken Dip & a Happy New Year!
Is your menu all planned for your New Year celebrations? I am still debating on a few appetizers, but there is one that will FOR SURE be served at our party this year. I am a big fan of buffalo and blue cheese, so this dip is right up my alley! It is creamy, spicy and full of flavor. I love that it has chicken in it so it gives the dip a little more substance than just cheese. This dip is perfect served with crackers, celery (if you are trying to be healthy ;), bread pieces or tortilla chips. No matter what you serve this dip with, you are sure to love it! Just be careful not to burn your dip (like I did!) when you broil it--the cheese gets nice and golden brown pretty quickly ;) Happy New Year!
Buffalo Chicken Dip
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 c. mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/2 c. blue cheese or feta (If you don't like blue cheese use feta..it is delicious with both types of cheese)
1/2 c. ranch dressing
1/2 c. franks hot sauce
1/2 c. green onions, sliced
1/4 c. cheddar cheese, shredded
2 chicken breasts, cooked and cubed/shredded
Crackers, chips or celery
Cook the chicken until no longer pink and shred for later--I used cooked and shredded chicken I had from my freezer. Set the chicken aside. In a microwave safe bowl, heat the cream cheese in the microwave until soft. Add the remaining ingredients and stir until combined. Add the chicken to the dip. Place the dip in a 8x8 or 9x13 pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes, or until the dip is slightly golden brown. If you don't have a lot of time you can also broil the dip for 2-3 minutes, watching carefully that the dip doesn't burn. Serve the warm dip with crackers, pieces of bread, slices or celery or tortilla chips.

1. Remove all the raised edges from 1 half of the
CD case, to get a flat piece of plastic (Figure A). It's
easy to cut the plastic, if you're careful. Score along
the inside edges of the CD case with an X-Acto
knife, running it along each edge about 6– 8 times.
This will weaken the plastic. Then snap the ends
off with your fingers.
Clear CD case Try to find one that isn't scratched.
Pencil with eraser
Pushpin or thumbtack
Scotch tape
Strong tape such as electrical, cloth, or foam tape
Clear plastic lid like from a yogurt container
Craft glue
Beads, stickers, confetti, and assorted
small treasures
Rubber bands ( 2)
Black paper or black neoprene/foam rubber
X-Acto knife
Ruler preferably metal
Small saw (optional)
58 Make: Volume 14
2. Cut 3 strips of case plastic that are exactly the
same width. My easy method was to use the width
of my ruler as the mirror width, scoring along each
edge and then measuring the next strip from the
previous edge (Figure B). Score the plastic over and
over; it will become so soft that if you keep scoring
you could cut through it completely. Instead, align
the score lines with the edge of a table, and snap
the strips apart cleanly.
3. Form an equilateral triangle shape (technically
a prism) with the 3 strips of plastic. Use the rubber
bands to hold the prism tube together, then wrap
around it tightly with tape to secure it (Figure C).
You can remove the rubber bands after it's taped.
Photography by Carolyn Bennett
4. Cut a piece of black paper or foam that's the
length of the triangular prism tube and wide
enough to wrap around it completely, with a little
overlap. Glue or tape this black backing around
the tube to create the mirrors.
5. Measure and cut the pencil to the length of the
prism tube plus enough to let the eraser hang over

A new policy will impact workers and future employees at Main Line Health who smoke.
The company said on Monday that they will no longer hire tobacco and nicotine users after May 1 of this year.
Current employees who do smoke will pay a $20 surcharge for health benefits starting in 2015.
They'll also be offered smoking cessation classes. In fact, employees who complete the class will receive $100. Those in violation of the policy will be subject to disciplinary action. To test for violations, random nicotine lab screenings will be performed for two years.
Main Line Health says it's their responsibility to set an example of wellness.
Main Line Health consists of Bryn Mawr Hospital, Lankenau Medical Center, Paoli Hospital and Riddle Hospital, as well as Main Line Health campuses in Broomall, Collegeville, Exton and Newtown Square. Additionally, Main Line Health operates Bryn Mawr Rehab Hospital; Mirmont Treatment Center, and the Home Care Network. There are about 10,000 employees and some 2,000 physicians who work for Main Line Health.
University of Pennsylvania Heath implemented a similar policy in 2013.

Finn and Wyatt launch Kwik Cricket
England's Steven Finn and England women's Danielle Wyatt paid a visit to Cassiobury Junior School in Watford on Sunday to launch the 2011 ASDA Kwik Cricket competition.
Finn, a former pupil at Cassiobury, joined children in an ASDA Kwik Cricket session as they prepared for both the mixed and girls' competition for primary school children.
In 2011, over 12,000 teams from 9,000 primary schools across the country will play in regional and country rounds of the competition, with winners progressing to national finals at the County Ground, Derbyshire, on July 19 and 20.
ASDA Kwik Cricket is the largest primary schools competition for any sport in the UK and with fundamental sport skills as a key element, it is designed to suit the needs of the national curriculum.
ASDA Kwik Cricket acts as a fantastic introduction to the game for and aims to inspire youngsters to participate and follow cricket later in life.
Finn said: "It was good to come back to Cassiobury and meet the children who will be taking part in the Kwik Cricket competition this year. It's fantastic to see so many boys and girls excited about playing cricket, I hope they are inspired and this is the start of a life long involvement in cricket for them."
Wyatt added: "I remember playing Kwik Cricket at school; it's great to see so many children are enjoying playing it too. The Kwik Cricket competition is now bigger than ever and the fact that so many children can get involved and be introduced to the game is fantastic.
"I wish all the schools involved in the competition the best of luck, and hope many of the children continue to participate in cricket as they move up to secondary school."

Java outlook through 2004
by Steve Anglin
"Java has reached mainstream appeal, but a number of challenges remain as many enterprises deploy their first mission-critical Java solutions during the next several years," according to ZDNET.
Challenges include:
- Lack of qualified Java programmers will continue to be an issue as many enterprises adopt Java platform technologies for the first time.
- "The rate of evolution of the core Java platform will decrease, while extended APIs will continue to rapidly appear."
- "Vendors will be challenged to "dumb down" much of Java's underlying complexity to support mainstream and conservative AD organisations in their efforts to successfully deploy real-world Java solutions."
- Java will formally and inclusively integrate Web services technologies, but support will vary widely among the many J2EE vendors in the short term.
- Java will continue to be pivotal in the rapidly emerging mobile and wireless AD markets, especially cell phone sets given strong partnerships with Nextel and Motorola.
I'm wondering what the outlook for open source Java will be through 2004, something not discussed in this article? My thoughts are that nearly all of the Java platform will have open source vendor support with implementations.
What do you see for Java over the next three or so years?

LORAIN, Ohio (AP) - State troopers west of Cleveland say an unlicensed driver lost control of his car and smashed into the side of a church.
Five children in the car and the driver were hurt in the crash Saturday evening, but no one inside the building was injured.
Troopers with the Ohio State Highway Patrol say the car hit a mailbox and two traffic signs before knocking a hole in the Broadway Assembly Church in Sheffield Township near the city of Lorain.
The church pastor says two children had been playing in a room but left just before the car hit the same area.
Troopers told media outlets that some of the injuries to the children in the car were serious, but not life threatening.

Update: Phil Mickelson won the first British Open of his career, taking home the winner's check. Here is a look at how the top 10 paid out.
It's crowded at the top of the British Open leaderboard, and in addition to battling for the Claret Jug, the players near the lead are also jostling for hundreds of thousands of dollars. The winner of the Open Championship will be rewarded handsomely with a $1.4 million first-place prize.
The major championship victory is what players are playing for, but prize money is a nice bonus. Those near the lead are all established veterans with successful careers on Tour, but the first-place prize will still be among the largest they've ever received. The total purse for the 2013 Open Championship is $8 million, up nearly $400,000 from last year. The winning share increased by $68,274 over what Ernie Els won last year.
While the winner will collect a massive check, each of the top seven finishers will walk away with a check worth more than a quarter of a million dollars. The top 16 finishers will receive at least $100,000. Whoever finishes second will come up just short of claiming the year's third major title, but he will still walk away with a check for $826,874. The exact payouts will change depending on ties, but here is a look at the prize money for the top 10 finishers, via Kyle Porter of CBS Sports.
1st: $1.4 million
2nd: $826,874
3rd: $531,020
4th: $413,437
5th: $333,784
6th: $288,268
7th: $246,545
8th: $208,615
9th: $182,064
10th: $166,892
Even players who struggle to tame Muirfield's difficult challenges will be rewarded for their effort. The top 30 finishers will receive at least $50,000 with the 50th-place finisher taking home $22,378. Porter has a breakdown of the payout for each of the top 50 finishers.

Ethanol and biodiesel save us money at the pump, improve our health and the environment, help the economy grow and increase America�s security by reducing the need for foreign oil. These facts stand in stark contrast to the questions posed by Merle Ries (�Ethanol fails to help consumers,� Jan. 5).
The U.S. Department of Energy, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Biofuels Digest and the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization don�t agree often. But their own studies and analysis underscore the benefits of renewable fuels. A few examples:
l Today�s 10 percent ethanol blend provides nearly the same miles-per-gallon as regular gasoline. The addition of ethanol to gasoline increases the octane while at the same time lowering the price of a 10 percent blend by 30 cents per gallon. The lower price � which means more money in your pocket � is accomplished by the inclusion of lower-cost corn ethanol used in the blend (there are no refining costs subsidized by Iowa taxpayers).
l Ethanol production has doubled since 2007; biodiesel production has more than doubled. Corn prices are up 4.8 percent for that period while total inflation is 11 percent. During this same time, oil prices increased 49.9 percent.
l Farmers have responded to the increased need for feed, food and fuel. Corn production is up 7.3 percent. This yield increase was achieved using less fertilizer, water and energy per bushel. Furthermore, corn ethanol�s byproduct (dried distillers grains) provides an economical livestock feed.
l Biodiesel production has increased and with it, the value of soybean oil. As a result, the cost of soybean meal for feeding livestock has decreased � a benefit to livestock farmers and consumers.
l Asserting that biofuel production increases food prices is speculation. Unlike with oil, we do not have a finite supply of ingredients needed to make renewable fuels. Since 2000, U.S. soybean production has increased by almost 500 million bushels while corn is up almost 4 billion bushels.
l Retail food prices associated with grains have not increased substantially. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports overall annual food spending per household has increased by $466 since 2007 � from $6,133 to $6,599 (or 7.6 percent). During that same time, milk prices are down 11 percent while egg prices have decreased by 8.3 percent. Chicken and pork prices are up 8 percent to 9 percent (and below the 11 percent inflation rate during the same period).
l Since 2007, oil prices have increased 49.9 percent. In comparison, retail diesel prices have gone up 35.6 percent while gasoline has increased 25.2 percent. Why the difference? The inclusion of lower-cost biofuels derived from corn and soybeans.
l With regards to the environment and health, carbon dioxide emissions have been reduced by almost 11 percent since 2007. Almost three-fourths of that is attributed to biofuels.
l The production of biofuels creates and sustains more than a quarter million jobs, many in Iowa because we lead the nation in ethanol and biodiesel production.
l Our nation�s dependence on foreign oil has declined by 51 percent since 2007. More than one third of that is attributed to homegrown biofuels.Ed Ulch, a Solon area farmer, is a director for the Iowa Soybean Association and is vice chairman of the National Biodiesel Board.

If you have end stage renal disease, you may be wondering what it is like to die of kidney failure. Many people find it helpful to know what they can expect as they journey through the dying process. Whether you've suffered acute kidney failure in conjunction with another serious illness and have decided not to start dialysis, or if you have end-stage renal disease and have decided to discontinue dialysis, here is what you can expect going forward.
Death from kidney failure is generally considered a gentle death. In fact, many physicians and nurses would choose to die of kidney disease rather than any other illness. Most symptoms of kidney failure can be easily managed or suppressed and pain is rarely a problem.
Physical Symptoms of Kidney Failure
The kidneys filter waste from the bloodstream and regulate the amount of water contained within the blood. When the kidneys fail to do their job, the waste accumulates in the body. This build up of waste may cause several symptoms.
Energy Level: The first thing you may notice is a loss of energy. You may become more sleepy or lethargic. Your sleeping patterns may change; you might sleep more during the day or have difficulty sleeping at night. As things progress, you will sleep more and more and eventually lose consciousness altogether.
Mental Changes: You might notice mild confusion early on that may progress to disorientation, anxiety, or delirium. Any discomfort from these mental changes can usually be easily managed with gentle reassurance from loved ones and health care professionals and the use of medications, if needed.
Muscle Changes: As minerals build up in the blood, you may notice muscle twitching, tremors, or even seizures. Medications can be given to prevent seizures and treat them if they occur. Gentle massage can relieve discomfort caused by muscle twitching or spasms.
Skin Changes: A build up of a chemical called urea in the blood may cause your skin to itch. You may even develop a fine white powder on your skin. Itching can usually be controlled with topical creams or antihistamines such as Benedryl.
Appetite and Weight Changes: As with any serious illness, your appetite will decrease and may cease altogether. There is no need to force yourself to eat if your body doesn't feel like it. Doing so may only make you feel worse. You may lose weight as your appetite wanes or you might gain weight as your body retains extra fluid. If you are not producing much urine but still drinking fluids, you might notice your feet, legs, abdomen, and other areas of your body swell with excess fluid.
Changes in Urination: You may pass little or no urine at all. If this is the case for you, limiting the amount of fluid you drink may improve your comfort by decreasing the amount of excess fluid in your body. As mentioned above, excess fluid will lead to swelling of the feet, legs, abdomen, and other areas of the body. The fluid may congest the lungs, making breathing difficult, and strain the heart. If you are not producing any urine, death will usually occur quite soon, usually within one to two weeks. If, however, you are still producing some urine, you could live much longer.
Breathing Changes: The build up of acids in the blood may cause changes in breathing. You may breath faster and more shallow. This breathing is generally not uncomfortable. If fluid has accumulated in the lungs, you may have shortness of breath, also known as dyspnea. There are things you can do to ease shortness of breath like sitting upright, using oxygen and a fan directed at your face, and taking medications such as morphine.
More tips to help manage dyspnea
If you are at home, it's important to have medications on hand to treat symptoms that may occur. A comfort kit of medications can be kept on hand "just in case". Whether you are at home or in a health care facility, a knowledgeable and compassionate hospice team can help you manage any symptoms that arise while helping you and loved ones prepare for death. With your symptoms well managed by professionals, you can focus on what is most important to you during this time.
Death is rarely a welcome guest but death from kidney failure may be the most gentle and comfortable death any of us could ask for. If you have further questions about what to expect during your particular illness, speak with your kidney specialist or hospice physician.

I've seen a few of these done, but none as nice as yours! Good work and good luck with sales!
This theme is really what we have being waiting for.
I have a few more questions:
Is it possible to add a link to open up Google Maps Direction below the small map in the single business page? So Visitor can get directions and travelling time?
On mobile device, is the activate/deactivate map function preset in the backend?
Can we add more icons for business categories?
Final question, is it possible to add Street View button on the small map in individual page if the header is in map mode already?
looks very nice!
1. Can you embed a rating system, so that that users can rate the locations with stars from 1 to 5?
2. Could we define one map per category per page? Just realised with a lot of location entries one map with all categories would get a bit too crowded & users would get confused.

Great theme, and good luck with the sales! I have some questions for you: Can we add a rating/review system? Any idea to add front-end "Submit listing"? Can we import/export all the listings?
Thanks in advance!
Great theme. Are there plans for a submit listing button? Would be perfect if customers could add listings.
Amazing Theme! – i'm also waiting for the "Submit Listing"/Login feature… maybe with paypal options. (for example highlighting your listing etc.)
Best directory theme in ThemeForest EVER!! If you could remove the word "item" from URL, that would be the biggest SEO boost you could ever give to your clients. Seriously, ask any SEO expert (I'm not BTW).
you rock!

Add my vote to the submit listing feature with paid options.. that would be killer!
Can the visitor add/edit/delete a listing without going to the wordpress dashboard? Can the visitor who submitted the post be contact without the website publishing their email address (ie. contact form per post)
seriously.. so creative guys! Hard to believe WP started as just a blogging platform. Love the creative idea.

I think i have found a "bug" or something is a little "confusing"
In the search form, when you enter submit without entering a Keyword it displays Blog Archives. Doesn't matter if you choose categories or location, i think it has to display listing from directory and not from blog.
On the other hand, when you enter submit without entering a Keyword the main links from header dissapear.
Good luck with sales! nice one.
I see, thanks for spotting that. We're just fixing that, update will go out today. Thanks.
I posted this question/bug two hours ago… and now is fixed. THAT'S good service. =) Going to buy it!
We're just double checking everything and sending the zip file for review to themeforest. It should be available for download soon. Thanks.
Very Cool, Would be nice to have user registration so they can add business info that includes business description, location, hours, social links, photo, maybe coupon codes and also have option for feature listing with payment option If the registration notification bar could be more up top in sidebar, that would be more visible ,

Well, I just put my furious 8 year old to bed. I can hear him kicking the bed upstairs. I'll go up in a few minutes and attempt to "talk him down" again, but I wanted to drop a line over here to Cheese Head Nation.
Congratulations on a great game. Your defense frustrated the Steelers enough and your offense drove us batty. I'm not a whiny "we beat ourselves" fan or ref-blamer. You won. Straight up. Hell of a game. I sincerely want to kick your asses next year, but you're a class organization and seem to be great fans as well. If there was an NFC team I wouldn't be upset to lose to, it's your team and Atlanta. Enjoy the ride, it's the finest narcotic there ever is for a true fan.
I now need to tell my son again that the Steelers can't win the Bowl every year. Again.

Toledo, OH (Sports Network) - Julius Brown scored 21 points and hit a pair of crucial free throws to earn the Toledo Rockets a 76-72 overtime victory over the Central Michigan Chippewas in a Mid-American Conference thriller at Savage Arena.
Brown also contributed nine assists and seven rebounds for Toledo (6-7, 2-0 MAC) which has won four of its last five. Rian Pearson dropped in 20 points and Dominique Buckley added 13 points.
Kyle Randall had a game-high 24 points as the only player in double figures for Central Michigan (8-7, 1-1) which had won two of its previous three.
Central Michigan led 29-26 at halftime despite shooting just 37.5 percent from the field by outscoring the Rockets from beyond the arc (15-12) and the free-throw line (6-0).
Although the Chippewas shot 54.2 percent in the second half they found themselves trailing 50-47 with a little less than seven minutes to play. A 3-pointer from Randall evened the game up at 50-50 in one of five ties in the last six minutes including the 60-60 stalemate at the end of regulation.
The Rockets hit 3-of-5 shots from the field and 9-of-10 from the free-throw line in the extra session to pull out the win. Brown hit all six of his attempts from the charity stripe in overtime including the pair that put the game out of reach with a second remaining.

The truck and trailer are packed and ready to go, and the contents inside will hopefully help homeless veterans in the state of South Carolina.
After collecting clothes throughout Aiken and Augusta, the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association is delivering the donations to the Midlands Housing Alliance in Columbia, SC for a Department of Veterans Affairs' Stand Down event.
They will ride to Columbia tomorrow morning with a police escort.
During Stand Downs, food, shelter, clothing, and health screenings are provided to homeless individuals, many of them veterans.
The CVMA had a high goal for the clothing drive, but thought it may have been out of reach. They say they were gratefully surprised at the CSRA's response.
"My original goal was to fill this trailer, but I thought that was kind of a long shot and I didn't plan on it being quite that much," says drive organizer Lowell Koppert, showing off the filled 16 ft. long trailer. "It's all going to great use. That's for sure."
Most of the donated clothes were cold-weather and business attire. The group also raised nearly $3500 to donate as well.

Multiple sources have indicated that Carmelo would accept a multi-year contract not only from the Knicks, but also from the Nets and Houston Rockets. The east coast connection we knew about but the Rockets? Is this more "reaching journalism" or is this a factual story
Why would Melo go to Houston but not want to stay in Denver? Is there something about the Nuggets organization that he is wanting out so badly? Does he dislike Kroenke? Bearup? Is he concerned that George won't make it through the year and doesn't want to deal with a new coach? Or is it that he just wants a change of scenery?

Germany are down to 10 men at halftime of their friendly against Argentina, but they've actually looked their best in the time that they've been shorthanded. They conceded a goal between the sending off and the end of the half, though it had very little do with a man advantage for Argentina. The Albiceleste's goal was an own goal, scored by Sami Khedira just before the half, and they lead 1-0.
The red was given to Germany goalkeeper Ron-Robert Ziegler, who took down Angel di Maria in the penalty area in the 30th minute. Marc-Andre ter Stegen replaced Thomas Müller and with his first action, made an impressive penalty save on Lionel Messi.
Germany looked very lively after that and had a couple of half chances before conceding. The goal came on a corner kick, which deflected off Khedira before floating past a stunned ter Stegen, who did not anticipate the deflection at all.
We'll have live coverage of this game in our Germany vs. Argentina 2012 StoryStream. in our international friendlies StoryStream.

Big Texan Steak Ranch
A classic, hokey Route 66 roadside attraction, the Big Texan made the move when I-40 opened in 1971 and has never looked back.

Perhaps you've seen chef-owner Rick Bayless on TV, stirring up pepper sauces and other jump-off-the-tongue Mexican creations. His isn't your typical taco menu: Bayless uses seasonal, sustainable ingredients for his wood-grilled meats, flavor-packed mole sauces, chili-thickened braises and signature margaritas.
Widely regarded as North America's best restaurant, Alinea – helmed by Beard Award–winner Grant Achatz – brings on 20 courses of mind-bending molecular gastronomy. Dishes may emanate from a centrifuge or be pressed into a capsule, à la duck served with a 'pillow of lavender air'. Don't worry: your team of servers will explain it all.
The interiors may have been subtly sexed-up for a 'younger clientele' (the stunning storm-themed triptych is by Brooklyn artist Ran Ortner), but triple Michelin-starred Le Bernardin remains a luxe, fine-dining holy grail.
This is your one must-visit Westside restaurant. At once creative and old-fashioned, it is located in a former pharmacy, with a dozen ceiling fans, walls covered in local art and oodles of charm. Breakfasts such as frittata with red potatoes ($12) or quiche and croissant pair well with spicy espresso, while 'ahi (Hawaiian tuna) makes a great $14 lunch.
Tribune and Sun-Times reporters have guzzled in the subterranean Billy Goat for decades. Order a 'cheezborger' and Schlitz beer, then look around at the newspapered walls to get the scoop on infamous local stories, such as the Cubs Curse (involving the tavern owner and his slighted pet goat).
Andy Ricker's much anticipated NYC debut has turned out to be a smashing success, with the rich and complex flavors inspired by Northern Thailand street-food wowing diners who make the long journey out.
Rodney Thompson developed the rock-shrimp fishery off Canaveral's coast in the early 1970s and in 1983 his daughter, Laurilee, opened the Dixie Crossroads Seafood Restaurant. The aim: to put local shrimp back on the Canaveral's tables, which are inundated with imports.
Licking plates is the obvious move after finishing chilled apricot soup with pancetta or rabbit cannelloni with nasturtium cream.
In Haiti, tap-taps are brightly colored pickup trucks turned public taxis, and their tropi-psychedelic paint schemes inspire the decor at this excellent Haitian eatery. This is no Manhattan-style South Beach lounge – here you dine under bright murals of Papa Legba, guardian of the dead, emerging from a Port-au-Prince cemetery.
The memorable surroundings feature dark-wood tables set with china and white linen, and huge picture windows with views of the rim and canyon beyond. The service is excellent, the menu creative, the portions big and the food very good.
SF has refined fusion cuisine over 150 years, but no one rocks it quite like chef/owner Corey Lee (formerly of Napa's French Laundry), who remixes local, sustainable fine-dining staples and Pacific Rim flavors with a SoMa DJ's finesse. This is contemporary California dining at its highest echelon.

Karl J. Mogel was there last night at Booksmith in Haight-Ashbury, and he's got a long rundown on the talk, plus lotsa pictures like the one above. Check it out.
Meanwhile, Brian from Backseat Driving was there the night before out in Mountain View, and also has some reactions. FYI Brian: I wasn't saying we shouldn't oppose Richard Pombo, just that he might not be the most vulnerable enemy of science to target in the upcoming elections–and that we ought to focus on races where a difference can really be made. Of course, if I'm wrong, and if Pombo really is vulnerable, then I take it back.
Anyway, now it's off to Portland. I have a flight in 20 minutes; I'm blogging from SFO. Here's the big event tonight:

There seems to be no artifice in their performances; it's as if we're peeking through a window and observing a guileless, likable young couple, up close, as they experience the first flush of love, then suffer the anguish of physical separation and emotional distance. The actors' work is appealing and beautifully nuanced; no wonder Jones won a Special Jury Prize at this year's Sundance Film Festival. The film itself won—
—the Grand Jury Prize.
I was impressed with Doremus' last film, the improbably titled Douchebag, which despite a shoestring budget managed to convey a sometimes-startling intimacy and firmly establish its quirky, original characters. (Its costar, Ben York Jones, appears briefly in Like Crazy and also shares screenplay credit with Doremus, although the actors improvised all of their dialogue.) This film is a bit more polished, but retains the naturalness of the earlier picture and the naked honesty of its characters' emotions.
The seeming spontaneity of Like Crazy belies the filmmaker's canny editing, careful choice of camera placement, color schemes, and structural underpinnings. All of this perfectly complements the actors' striking and believable characterizations. That applies to the supporting cast, as well, which includes Jennifer Lawrence, Charlie Bewley, Finola Hughes, and Alex Kingston and Oliver Muirhead as Jones's sympathetic parents. The pinpoint precision of their work, in just a handful of scenes, achieves more than most actors can with reams of dialogue.
Like Crazy is invigorating entertainment, and Drake Doremus is an exemplar of independent filmmaking. He's already working on his next feature, and I can't wait to see it.
Deeper Into Movies | December 12, 2011 12:52 PM
As wispy as cigarette smoke in a cyclone, Like Crazy might be likened to a precious, humorless When Harry Met Sally. This surprise Sundance award winner is a little romance, and a lot of heartbreak.
Audiences might be mad about Felicity Jones after her radiant breakthrough as Anna, a young Brit attending college in Los Angeles. While Drake Doremusâ film falls short on classy luster, Jones may have graduated to stardom....
(entire review at deepintomovies.blogspot.com)
Hal | October 31, 2011 4:51 AM
I read that Doremus improvs the whole script. Lets see what happens when he enters "conventional" filmmaking, with bigger actors, bigger budgets, and bigger stakes.
mike schlesinger | October 30, 2011 6:28 AM
Norm, why do you even bother going to the movies? You clearly detest everything you see--and more to the point, don't see--and apparently believe the entire industry is made up of long-haired, dope-smoking, liberal elitists trying to destroy America. Your ad hominem negativity has grown tiresome, especially on a site run by someone as passionate about movies as Leonard.
Ron r | October 30, 2011 5:51 AM
Wow you guys sound are so angry.
Excellent review by the way.
Douche | October 30, 2011 4:14 AM
Douchebag was over-rated garbage and no one gave a shit.
Norm | October 29, 2011 11:27 AM
Hollywood has their own agenda, promote freakish relationships. Why give creedence that men and women should have functional ones. The dopehaeds at WG, have distorted the reality of what marriage is all about. One day they will be able to marry their cats and dogs, I can't wait for that film...Happy Days...
