Hypothetically speaking, if this story is true, then it's pretty telling on why we traded up for Claiborne and how the front office views the team as a whole. I'm not saying it's true, but it does make sense. Jerry has said many times that he's an optimist so he's more likely to see the heights this team could reach as opposed to the lows.

A buzzcut is a simple style that works well for most men and is now generally acceptable for everyone from athletes to executives (and it's a great way to save a little cash on trips to the barber). It's also a fairly easy haircut to give and maintain yourself. As someone who makes a living from cutting men's hair, I don't often give advice on how to cut men's hair at home, but this one makes sense because it's so easy. Reluctantly, I offer these steps on how to give yourself a buzzcut at home.
Difficulty: Average
Time Required: 15 Minutes
Here's How:
- Choose a Length. As far as the length goes, I recommend going with what I call a 3-2-1 buzzcut (e.g. a number 3 guard on top, 2 on the sides, and 1 around the edges). This will leave the hair about 3/8" on top and taper down to 1/2" on the sides and back (with a little tighter finishing at the hairline). The shorter the buzzcut, the harder it will be to mess up or end up with an uneven result.
If this is the first time you've had a buzz, make sure you feel your head for any lumps, scars or irregularities and inspect your scalp before you buzz. This will help eliminate any surprises after you've started cutting.
- Get Ready. To achieve best results, it's helpful to start with a clean, dry head of hair -- hair that has product in it or hair that is flat due to sleeping or wearing a hat will be more difficult to cut evenly. It will also be helpful to have a hand mirror or a swing arm vanity mirror (this will allow you to keep both hands free). If using a swing arm mirror, mount the mirror on a wall that runs perpendicular to the vanity mirror. This will allow you to stand between the two mirrors and see the back of your head. Having both hands free is a big plus.
- Buzz the Top. Place the #3 (3/8") attachment on the clipper. Holding the clipper guard flat against your forehead, begin cutting from front to back. Move the clipper slowly back down the middle of the head past the crown. Repeat in strips until the entire top is clipped down (cut everything to just past the point where the head rounds into the sides). You may need to go over it a few times to get it all even -- making a few passes from side-to-side may also help. Pay extra attention to the crown. Since the hair grows in a circular pattern at the crown, you'll need to buzz from all directions to get it all cut.
- Buzz the Sides. Replace the attachment on the clipper with a #2 (1/4"). Keeping the clipper guard flat against the head, start at the sideburn and clip up the head to just past the start of buzzed down top section. Run the clipper in a straight line up past the part where the head begins to round at the top (the clipper will leave the head here) to provide a smooth blend between the sides and the top. If you see any lines between the two sections, rocking the clipper outward in a scooping motion will help you get a good blend. Repeat in strips on both sides until complete and go over any missed spots.
- Buzz the Back. Stand between the vanity mirror and your hand mirror (or swing arm mirror). For best results, your back should be facing the vanity mirror while you look into the hand mirror). This will allow you to see the entire back. Keeping the #2 on the clipper, with the clipper guard flat against the head, start buzzing from the bottom of the neck all the way up the head until just past the clipped part on top. Like the sides, continue up the head in a straight line allowing the round of the head near the top to provide a natural blend. Repeat in strips until the entire back is cut.
- Taper the Edges. Using the #1 (1/8") attachment, taper in the edges. To do this, start at the sideburn and clip up to the top of the ear, rocking the clipper out in a scooping motion. This will blend into the #2 length section. Continue over the ear (it will be helpful to bend the ear over flat with your other hand to make room and allow you to see what you're doing) on each side. Once the sides are complete, turn around and do the same to the back, running the clipper up the back of the head and rocking it out at about ear level. The shortest part of the back will go up to meet the shortest part of the sides.
- Detail the Cut. Using your trimmer, you'll now trim your sideburns and shave your neck by creating a line and shaving everything underneath. This will give your cut a polished look. Holding your trimmer with the teeth of the blade pointing at your skin (the blade is parallel to the floor with the bottom of the blade facing up) will allow you to cut a clean line. Holding the trimmer with the bottom of the blade flat against your skin (with the teeth facing up) will allow you to shave everything underneath the line you created. Follow the natural hairline as closely as possible.
- Clean Up. Once you've finished the cut, inspect your entire head carefully for any missed spots or uneven places. Go back over anything that looks out of place. Be sure to pay close attention to the back and crown area as these are often the areas most guys miss. Sweep up, shower, and enjoy your new buzz.
- Before giving yourself a buzzcut, you may want to go to the barber and have him do it the first time and pay close attention to what he's doing. Watch how he moves the clipper up the head.
- When cutting, don't rush it. Be careful and proceed slowly to minimize making a mistake. I also recommend being prepared to screw up. If you mess up, you may have to make (an embarrassing) trip to the barber for repairs. The result can often be a VERY short cut -- don't buzz your own hair if you're not prepared to accept the consequences of a botched job.
- Make sure your guards are on securely! If the clipper guard pops off, you'll end up with a bald patch (that can only be fixed by shaving your head), so make sure your guards are firmly attached to the clipper before you proceed.
- Invest in good tools and keep your clippers well oiled and maintained. Paying a few extra dollars for a good clipper, such as the Wahl Senior will help produce a better result. For a good trimmer, I recommend the Andis T-Outliner. Together, these will set you back around 100 bucks, but they'll give you years of use and you'll recover the cost from saving cash spent at the barber shop.
- Cut often. To maintain a fresh look, buzz your head about every two weeks -- this will make it much easier to maintain.
What You Need
- A good hair clipper
- Attachment combs for the hair clipper
- Hair trimmers for detail work
- Comb (perhaps the last time you'll need one of these)
- Hand mirror (or swing arm mirror)
- The location of the nearest barber (just in case)
- A steady hand and a bit of patience
- A broom and dustpan

I had never made stuffed bell peppers before I
didtried to do the AdvoCare cleanse in January. It's now become one of my favorite meals to make. Here is my version:
Stuffed Bell Peppers
4 bell peppers
2 tomatoes (any kind, cherry tomatoes work well too)
1 onion
4 cloves of garlic
1 Tbs of olive oil
1 pd of ground beef (or ground turkey) [Normally I use Trader Joe's beef-less ground beef because my boyfriend is vegetarian. But, since I'm Paleo-ing and meat substitute products are not allowed, we made half real meat and half fake meat this time.]
1/2-3/4 cup of canned tomato pasta sauce (you can substitute tomato juice too, but seriously, who drinks tomato juice. Am I right?)
Salt, Pepper, Cayenne, Oregano (and any other Italian spices you have handy) to taste.
1 cup (or more) of shredded mozzarella (or whatever other delicious cheese you have in your fridge).
Preheat your oven at 400 degrees. Start boiling a large pot of water. Saute the diced onions until soft. Then add in the minced garlic.
Once the garlic gets soft, add in the ground beef and tomato sauce. Break up the ground beef (or meat substitute) and cook thoroughly on med-high heat. [When using a meat substitute, cook it on lower heat because it dries out quickly.]
One of the above pictures is the fake meat and the other is the real meat. Can you guess which one is which?
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and all of your spices after the meat is almost done cooking. Cover and simmer on low heat.
Next, add your bell pepper shells to the pot of boiling water. [Use a small paring knife to cut around the stem to get out most of the seeds. I just use my hands to get out the rest of the white/fleshy seed stuff to get a clean shell.]
Remove after about 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let them cool for a minute or so.
And here's where it gets crazy. Generously
sprinklecoat the bottom of the bell pepper with cheese BEFORE you begin to stuff it with the ground beef mixture. Then after you're done piling in the yummy filling, add MORE shredded cheese to the top. I really pack it in so that you get a solid layer of cheese on top. Bake for 15 minutes. [Don't forget to turn off your stove - I didn't even realize mine was still on the other night because you could barely see the flame since it was on so low during the simmering stage. Luckily my boyfriend has a keen eye. Good thing I have renter's insurance for the times he's not around.]
Of course, since I'm Paleo-ing, no cheese for me. But, the bell peppers are still delicious even without it. They also reheat really well, so don't worry about making too many!

This week, Georgia legislators kick off their annual huddle under the Gold Dome. I'll leave it to others predict the session ahead, and take a look at the Dome itself. Turns out the Georgia State Capitol offers a cautionary case study on political grandstanding and cheapness.
Before the Capitol-with-an-O was erected, Atlanta had to secure its position as Georgia's Capital-with-an-A. In the earliest days of Georgia statehood, Savannah served as the capital city. For the next century, the statehouse hopscotched all over, with five cities designated official capitals and other locales serving as temporary meeting places for politicos, as this handy timeline from the Digital Library of Georgia, reveals:
1777-78 Savannah1779-80 Augusta*1780-81 Heard's Fort*, miscellaneous sites in Wilkes County1781-82 Augusta1782 Ebenezer*, Savannah1783 Augusta1784 Savannah, Augusta1785 Savannah1786-96 Augusta1796-1806 Louisville1807-1864 Milledgeville1864-65 Macon*1865-68 Milledgeville1868-present Atlanta* Temporary meeting place
How did Atlanta snag and hold on to capital city status? The same way Atlanta has done everything: bold boosterism and brash promises. Civic leaders first tried to lure lawmakers from Milledgeville to Atlanta in the 1840s, only to be resoundingly defeated by a General Assembly vote. Atlanta then made a bid to be capital of the Confederacy; rebuffed again. The city's lucky break came during Reconstruction, when Federal overseers opted to set up shop in Atlanta, in large part because of the city's rapid post-war redevelopment, and in even larger part because Milledgeville hoteliers refused to house African-American delegates.
After Reconstruction, Georgia lawmakers pushed for a return to Milledgeville, a sentimental favorite untainted by collaboration with Yankees. Atlanta leaders went to lawmakers with a proposition: They'd fund construction of a capitol building to match the old statehouse in Milledgeville and throw in ten prime acres in the center of town. Deal, said the lawmakers. But just give us a nice temporary space and we'll build a bigger, grander capitol. So lawmakers worked in the former Kimball Opera House. (In an interesting aside, the Kimball was embroiled in shady real estate dealings that almost put the kibosh on Atlanta's bid entirely. Long story short: city fathers stepped in to pay off a hidden mortgage, keeping capital city designation for the ATL.)
After making do in the opera house for two decades, Georgia lawmakers were ready (and state coffers replenished after the Civil War's economic devastation) to build a state capitol from the ground up. In September 1883, they passed an appropriation for $1 million to fund construction of a building to be overseen by a commission including the governor. They set a deadline of January 1889 and stipulated that the structure would be "built of granite, rock and marble, as far as practicable, and all the materials used in the construction of said building shall be those found and procured within the State of Georgia; provided that same can be procured in said state as cheaply as other materials of like quality in other states."
A national design competition was held, with the winning entry by Chicago architects Franklin Burnham and Willoughby Edbrooke. In another blow to state pride, the construction contract went to low-bidder Miles and Horn, of Toledo, Ohio. To stick within budget, Miles and Horn decided the exterior of the building would have to be constructed of Indiana limestone, not Georgia marble or granite. It was cheaper to ship quarried stone from the Hoosier state because Georgia didn't have the manufacturing infrastructure to crank out the needed materials. A short-lived campaign by Atlanta quarry owner Marcus Bell, claiming limestone was not a solid building material, was briefly supported by the Atlanta Constitution. To quash controversy, the capitol commission issued a report vouching for the structural integrity of limestone and underscoring the budget constraints that necessitated using it. (In a concession to local pride and geology, Georgia marble was selected for interior finishes, including wainscoting, tiles, lavatories, and staircases — one-and-a-half acres in total.)
As construction went on, the commission went back to the drawing board — literally — to cut out pricey extras such as exterior carvings and interior finishes. According to Democracy Restored, a fascinating history of the capitol by Anne Farrisee and Tim Crimmins, the statue atop the capitol dome was most likely ordered from a catalog. "Miss Freedom" is made of molded metal, painted white to look like a marble carving. (There's also a rumor that Miss F. was not just a mail-order icon, but also sloppy seconds, originally ordered for the Ohio capitol.)
In the biggest cost-cutting effort of all, the capitol dome was not constructed of stone or finished with gold leaf, but crafted of wood, covered in metal, and painted gold. The scrimping was not apparent when the capitol opened in March 1889 – three months behind deadline and $118 under budget. Harper's Weekly called the Georgia Statehouse the "best million-dollar edifice in America."
Six decades later, the corner cutting haunted a new generation of lawmakers in the form of water seeping through the wood-and-metal dome. In 1958 the leaky dome got a new limestone base and a coating of asphalt and cement. The dome was then covered in tiny metal plates and finished off with gold leaf – dramatically delivered from Dahlonega by wagon train. The electric wires to light the torch in Miss Freedom's hand were finally installed. (The trek from Dahlonega was repeated two decades later, when gold leaf flaked off the 1950s dome.)
While the leaks were fixed, the capitol's descent into shabbiness continued, thanks to a series of questionable Mid-Century design choices (acoustic ceiling tiles, flourescent lights, icky paint colors, foam insulation) and a century of grime. In 1993, lawmakers established a new capitol commission, and a restoration project was started, running into tens of millions of dollars and taking more than a decade. In 2005, Miss Freedom was taken to Canada, given a facelift, and lowered back onto her golden perch by helicopter.

Why is it that our value is measured by how many people want to screw us?
Why is it measured by whether or not someone does? By whether or not someone finds us attractive? By how attractive someone finds us and where we spend the night?
Why do we find our value in how many people are jealous of us? By how many people want to be around us? By how many people want to have what we have or accomplish what we've accomplished?
Why is our value measured by what's in our bank account? By the kind of car we drive? By the kind of house we live in? By the people we are able to hang out with?
Can't success just be yours? Can't it be good just because it feels good and right to you?
Why do we spend so much time trying to define it? Counting followers on our blogs, posting our success on Facebook to watch the number of 'likes' go up and hashtaging our way to "fame" on Instagram like it really makes a difference.
Why does it suddenly count so much less when everyone else isn't making a fuss about it?
Who cares if no one says they're proud of you?
When it comes down to it, are you any less successful just because no one stopped to tell you you were? Does an action mean less just because nobody noticed you did it?
Stop living by what makes the faceless masses happy and learn to live your live by the things that will make YOU proud of you. It all falls into place after that, I promise… but even if it doesn't, it won't matter because you will have lived your life in such a way that it was meaningful.
Who cares what kind of car you drive? Who says it's a call for pity if you're not bringing anyone to your bed? Who cares how many publications your name has graced? If it isn't something you would use to define you (and as we can remember, you work doesn't have to), then why do you care what anyone has to say or think of it?
Start your day tomorrow remembering that it is not lust, a lie or deeply-rooted insecurities that should make you try your best. Strip it all away and just go for it.
Stop trying to find your place in a world without any substance and just find you.
Love -Sara

SOHH Whatcha Think: Ashanti Finds Herself A Boy Toy, Kanye's New LP Artwork, Lil Wayne & Rick Ross' Music Banned?
Thursday, Mar 28, 2013 11:55PM
Thick Thursday. The air is thick to kick things off today, starting with Ashanti getting over Nelly and finding herself a young buck. Speaking of unexpected things, are we getting a first look at Kanye West's new LP artwork? Staying on the topic of dope rappers, are Lil Wayne and Rick Ross having their music banned? All this coming up in SOHH Whatcha Think.
[Editor's Note: The views expressed in this column do not necessarily reflect those of SOHH]
1. The Rebound
It looks like Ashanti and Nelly will never be an item, or at least not in the immediate future. Ashanti showed she can do fine all by herself and find a young man to take her hand, wait for it, on a date. Sandra Rose has the evidence:
R&B singer Ashanti was probably thinking "Nelly who?" as she strolled out of a restaurant with her new beau. Ashanti, who clearly has an affinity for roughnecks, stopped by the trendy Ivy restaurant to have a bite to eat with her mystery man in Los Angeles on Wednesday (March 27). Her ex, rapper Nelly is currently dating bisexual groupie Tae Heckard, who is probably lining up her next gullible celebrity target as I type this. (Sandra Rose)
It's sad when you think Nelly and Ashanti were the original Jay-Z and Beyoncé back in the early 2000's. Their careers have gone from massive highs to pretty low lows, hopefully this relationship is not too serious and we can see Nelly/Ashanti as an item in the years to come. #SOHHWhatchaThink?
2. The Art Of Yeezy
Are we finally getting to see the genius of Kanye West? Probably not, but anything that's news/gossip-related for Yeezy is exciting enough for most of us to spend countless hours discussing. Word around the Internet town is new artwork for his mysterious next LP is out. All Hip Hop Rumors has more:
When I get a chance, I am going to get this on the site - the visuals. But somebody cool sent me something from Kanye West that they purport is artwork from the rapper's upcoming album. I won't say how exactly right now, but it definitely is crazy. It looks like an illseed! Now, the validity of this is at lest partially true, because it comes from Kanye West.com. So, this means, the art may not be album art, but its definitely from Kanye West and definitely a secret. But, if you have the right people that you are cool with, they send it to you like they did with me. I will upload in a day or so, when I get a chance. Looks like Kanye is about to go off again. Bout time. (All Hip Hop Rumors)
You would hope there's a lot more to this. If anything, it feels very retro and extremely 2007 'ish. #SOHHWhatchaThink?
3. Can't Hold Us Back
If you're living in a certain part of the world, you may not be able to turn on your radio and hear Lil Wayne and Rick Ross ever again. Turns out Michigan wanted to flex its muscle as a certain radio station has taken a stand against the rappers. Necole Bitchie has the roundup:
In a statement, WUVS-LP The Beat says it's time that hip hop starts taking some responsibility: "The questions have been asked, Is Hip Hop Music Destroying America, Is Hip Hop A Threat To Our Children or Should Rappers Be Accountable For Their Lyrics? You be the judge. Earlier this year the song "Karate Chop" leaked online featuring rapper Lil Wayne. He raps, "Bout to put rims on my skateboard wheels/Beat that (expletive/woman genital) up like Emmett Till." A few weeks later a song by rapper Rocko featuring Rick Ross was released called "You Don't Even Know It." Rick Ross raps, 'Put molly all in her champagne, she ain't even know it/ I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain't even know it.' Yes, we have our freedom of speech right, but when is freedom of speech taken too far?" "Many would say both rappers have taken their lyrical content too far and offended too many. The family and estate of Emmett Till have released a statement of disapproval over Lil Wayne's disregard and disrespectful lyrics. Though his record label issued a statement of apology, the rapper has yet to do so. In the case of Rick Ross, a petition has been started over his blatant disregard for women and the issue of date rape. The U.S. Department of Justice estimates that over 300,000 women are raped or sexually assaulted per year in the United States alone. That is a disturbing number and should not be taken lightly. His lyrics not only condone the behavior, but he boasts about it in the song. While some feel it's only entertainment, many feel it sends and encourages the wrong message. Several individuals and organizations have taken a stand and so are we. Effective immediately Muskegon's WUVS-LP 103.7 the Beat has pulled ALL Lil Wayne and Rick Ross music from rotation. We pride ourselves on playing music that is non-degrading and non-violent. While we believe in freedom of speech, creative writing and individualism, we refuse to be part of the problem by spreading messages that could harm or end someone's life."" (Necole Bitchie)
Wouldn't censorship be enough? There may not be a lot of things most people can either relate to or imagine or even agree with in their music, but to ban anything and everything froom Wayne and Rick? Seems pretty cold-blooded. #SOHHWhatchaThink?
That about wraps it up for today. This is SOHH On The Spot giving you the morning scoop from your favorite gossip sites.

A B-E-A-U-tiful Sunday morning, Friends!
This is the day that the good Lord has made, and technically (Biblically), this day does belong to Him. "Remember to keep holy the Sabbath Day", says the Lord (Exodus 20:8). It was also added that just as God rested on the seventh day, so must we not do any work either. In our family, we do our best to honor this commandment by God by making sure we do not do any work-related stuff throughout the entire day, nor do we require any of our staff to work either. But most important of all, that we spend the day dwelling on God's Word, go to Sunday Worship and just remain in His holy presence consistently (ideally) all day.
It is my belief though that this commandment benefits us more than it does God. I don't think He gets anything from our obedience other than being pleased with us and being glorified, but even that doesn't add to what He already is. He is God. He is the beginning and the end. He is the source of all things, the beginning of all things, the completion of all things…the Be-All and End-All. Keeping the Sabbath Day holy is more for us, My Friends. When we set aside time (or one whole day, in this case) dedicated to Him alone… when we clear our schedule and spend time with Him, we allow ourselves to be recharged and refreshed by His Holy Spirit. His gentle voice suddenly drowns out the noise of this busy world, and pacifies our souls. Then and only then are we able to listen and clearly hear what He wants to say to us. Perhaps work week has burnt you out, or there's a pressing matter that requires your decision in the next couple of days, or you're simply feeling lonely or depressed. Spending even one day with God, dwelling in His Word, is the ultimate soul food…and in His presence, there is blessing, there is favor, there is fullness of joy!
Keep holy the day of the Lord and be blessed, Friends!
[VERSE 1]Too many storms have passed your way And you're all washed out cause it rained on your parade Seems nobody cares about you anyway Now you're living your life like a castaway Searched for strength inside was it all in vain Cause the deeper you dig you find more and more pain Don't let your tomorrow be like yesterday Cause I spoke to God, I called out your name And on your behalf, I just asked if He would be there for you I want you to
[CHORUS]Be Blessed, Don't live life in distress Just let go, let God, He'll work it out for you I pray that your soul will be blessed Forever in his rest, Cause you deserve his best no less
[VERSE 2]Enter a place where you never have to cry Never have to live a lie, never have to wonder why Never LONG for nothing you're always satisfied In the peace that his arms will provide He will erase any guilt or shame, any bad habits you've got You won't wanna do em again, Yes we all can change, I can testify See I spoke to God, I called out your name And on your behalf, I just asked, If he would be there for you I want you to
[CHORUS]My prayer for you today, Is that you trust and always obey On his name keep calling [choir] On his name keep calling [solo] He'll keep you from falling [choir] He'll keep you from falling [solo] He'll supply the answers [choir] Yes He will, if you stand in faith and trust Him to make a way out of no way [solo]
[REPEAT CHORUS]Be blessed from the bottom of your feet to the crown of your head Your life be blessed Your family be blessed Your finances be blessed Everything about you

Hi, my name is Leah Arnold and I am a mediator for the state of Texas. My goal in any mediation is to preserve the disputing parties interests in handling any dispute from a position that I can place myself in the shoes of either party. Most dispute issues can be handled without third party representation in the form of expensive attorneys that cost both unnecessary time and money.
My objective is to get you to a place of mutual understanding and resolution as quickly and cost effectively as possible so that you can move forward with your lives beyond the difficult position of being embroiled in dispute.

LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) - Connor McCowan sat in front of a crowded courtroom Friday morning, testifying again in his murder trial.
The Okemos teen is charged with murder in the Feb. 23 stabbing death of Michigan State University senior Andrew Singler.
McCowan broke down in court, as the knife he used to stab and kill Singler was held just feet in front of his face.
"Sir, you don't deny killing Andrew with this knife, do you?" asked prosecuting attorney John Dewane. "I do not," said McCowan.
Evidence Dewane used Friday tugged at McCowan's emotions. Dewane focused on threatening text messages, he said, McCowan initiated.
"You'd agree with me, that's another threat of violence, isn't it?" asked Dewane. "Yes," Connor replied.
In addition to text messages, Dewane also addressed the tweet McCowan sent to Singler Feb. 23.
"This time of the night is when phone calls and texts are regretted in the morning," read Dewane. "Do you remember that?"
"I remember tweeting it," said McCowan.
McCowan said he went to Singler's to straighten things out.
"You wanted to make up to a guy who threatened to kill you and wanted to stick you in the eye. Is that what you want us to believe?" asked Dewane. "Yes, I do," said McCowan.
McCowan said, when he got to the Meridian Township apartment, Singler repeatedly punched him, which forced him to pull out his knife.
"I needed Andrew to get off me," said McCowan. "I had to get him off me."
Dewane played video of McCowan sitting in jail, as police told him he'd been arrested for homicide. McCowan's chin quivered, as he listened to a Feb. 23 phone call from his mom.
"They said that Andrew died," said McCowan's mom on the phone. "Do they know that for a fact?" McCowan questioned back.
McCowan said, although his voice might not show it, he felt devastated, and was in shock, when his mom broke the news Singler died.
The trial picks back up Monday morning. Closing arguments are expected to begin.

Texas was so much fun. Kapers, MiniKapers, thank you both so much for being totally awesome and cool and all A's fan-ish.
Friday, May 30, 3008
Blogged from the airport. The plane was late coming in from Chicago ("weather," sure. I read the bomb threat story), making my already late-afternoon flight a little later afternoon. I really thought Audrina from The Hills was on my flight, but Perez says she was in LA the night before celebrating her sister's birthday. That would be one hell of a flight.
Hotel: Not a whole lot to talk about. I really hate driving, so I chose to stay close to the park and Six Flags. Arlington offers a free trolley service to Six Flags and The Ballpark, but I never knew what time the thing would actually show up.
The game: I am in full-on freak out mode with all the call ups. ZIGGY! Patrol Craft! Buck! Calero! But the person I couldn't wait to see was Eric. Effing. Chavez.
The park is smaller in person that it looks on television.
I really liked the pen location:
If we ever lose Joe Blanton I know where to look.
Okay, I just like stalking the players.
Welcome back, Travis Buck!
Also joining the Big League party, Carlos Gonzalez!
Random mascot photo:
So, Chad Gaudin got someone kicked out on Friday night.
The guy in the white cap was a total asshat. Chad very nicely asked him to stop being an asshat (I'm paraphrasing), but the guy would have none of it. Chad involved the uniforms.
Finally, someone else got tired of this guy's crap and had him removed.
Other bullpen shenanigans:
Immediately after this photo was taken, the kid bursts into tears. I'm not sure what Rob or Casey said.
Boo! We lost. How's that for a game recap?
Saturday, May 31, 2008
I headed to Six Flags that morning.
I'm not too big on roller coasters, but I loved the Superman ride. Only later did I find out, via kapers, that some girl lost both of her feet on the same ride at a different location. Great.
Texas is hot. And windy. Mostly hot. The Aquaman ride was a nice cool down.
What is this large white photo?
That's the bridge where you exit. The same photo, moments later.
Saturday's game.
Who is on first?
View from right field:
View from over the pen:
I don't know how often this happens, but both Friday and Saturday the Rangers put various troops on the big screen to salute them. On Friday they had two people who worked at the stadium and were going to be recalled to the National Guard for active duty. On Saturday, when this photo was taken, the gentleman had recently returned from Afghanistan. On both nights the crowd gave the guys a standing ovation. It was touching.
Effing Josh Hamilton receiving his AL Player of the Month Award. Or something.
I'd really like that guy if he didn't play in our division.
And this guy blocked my view all night.
Sunday, June 1, 2008
My favorite day. Sigh.
kapers and mini-kapers were gracious enough to pick me up early so we could head to the park for PICTURE DAY! Sure, it was the Rangers, but it was awesome.
Outside view of the park:
The deepest parts of the ballpark:
Josh Hamilton gets the Most Awesomest Player of the Day award.
He was very popular. The players started walking around the line over by the third base dugout. Unfortunately, by the time the photo session was over, Josh had only made it to the LF corner. Instead of being an asshole and running off the field when security told him to, he walked really slowly and took side steps. He even apologized for not being able to stop. I hate him. :)
Justin Duchscherer signing autographs:
The back view of the scoreboard from our OF seats:
Greg Smith "warming" up. It didn't take too long since it a bajillion degrees on Sunday.
Rich Harden getting his running in. Okay, he was walking there:
Rad Chad walking to the pen:
Jack Crust in the OF. He actually caught a ball:
We didn't stay in our seats too long. It was too hot for my fatass to sit out there all day. Kapers, mini-kapers, and I ventured over to the Rawlings Grille in RF.
Air conditioning. Drinks. Buffet. Televisions at the table. It might've been Heaven.
View from the seats in front of the Grille:
The seats were pretty nice. They had giant outdoor fans under the roof:
Maybe the A's should try a fake owl to keep the birds away. I hope that was a fake owl...
Back view of Travis Buck:
Front view of Travis Buck:
Huston is kind of a big deal in Texas.
We have now reached the Brad Ziegler portion of the program.
Kapers and I got to meet Brad, his wife, Brad's mother and father, and Baby Ziegler.
If you get the chance, say hi to Brad. He is so friendly and AMAZING. His entire family was, actually. It made me all warm and fuzzy.
Finally, a photo just for monkeyball:

News: J. Cole Experiences A "Full Circle Moment" After Making Nas Proud
Sunday, Jun 23, 2013 10:50AM
Roc Nation's J. Cole has responded to rap veteran Nas' unexpected decision to remix his "Let Nas Down" Born Sinner record and boast about how proud he is of the evolving emcee.
Cole took to his Twitter page to not only retweet Nas' remix and "Made Nas Proud" hashtag but also acknowledge how special the vet's actions were.
"Today is special. Full circle moment. @nas it's on you," Cole tweeted June 22nd.
"MOMENT" (J. Cole's Twitter)
On the response track, Nasty Nas tells Cole how proud he is of the rapper's growth.
"While you was writing down my rhymes, I was just tryna show you that if you say what's in your mind, you could stand the test of time/Now I'm playing Born Sinner loud," Nas raps on the track. "You made your n---a Nas proud. So you ain't Nas let down, it's just part of the game, becoming a rap king my n----/You ain't let Nas down." "How that sound? Here's the crown, pass it to you like nothin'/You ain't let Nas down." "Long live the idols, may they never be your rivals," Nas tweeted on Saturday, quoting Cole's hook on the original track, and adding, "I ain't put out no shit in a minute!" before they dropped the song. Nas tweeted up a storm about the new release and Cole responded with gratitude. (RapFix)
Much like Cole, the rap veteran also took to his Twitter page to promote the new anthem.
Nas recently took to twitter to post a remix. But it was not just any remix; it was a musical response to the J. Cole track "Let Nas Down"--the very candid and aching single from Cole's recent album, Born Sinner, about disappointing his idol. Along with the link to the track, Nas wrote #MadeNasProud. Follwed by another tweet that just said: "#MadeNasProud #MadeNasProud #MadeNasProud #MadeNasProud #MadeNasProud #MadeNasProud #MadeNasProud #MadeNasProud #MadeNasProud" (FUSE TV)
Recently, Cole said he ran into Nas, by fate, during an early morning airplane flight they shared and let him hear the record.
"I played him the song, gave him my headphones. I was trying to hear what part of the song he was on because he was behind me," he shared. "And then, like a minute into the song he was like, 'Wooo,' beatin' my chair, you know what I mean, bangin' my chair and then, just overall, he was wowed. The look on his face was like, honored that I would make that and then also highly impressed. That was a huge moment for me." (BET)

English Walnuts (In Shell)
Certified: Gluten-Free Kosher
English Walnuts are grown primarily in California and Oregon. This delicious nut is the most popular nut in the shell.
Its mildly sweet taste is great right out of your hand, or try it in your recipes for great flavor.
Health Tips
2. Walnuts are an excellent source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, particularly when bought in their shells and eaten while fresh. The 1.5 ounces of walnuts cited by the FDA also more than fulfill the daily requirement of essential omega-3 fatty acids, a critical nutrient deficient in the American diet. Among tree nuts, walnuts are distinctive because of their concentration of omega-3 fatty acids.
3. English walnuts contain no cholesterol and are an important source of dietary fiber and protein. They are also a good source of many vitamins and minerals including potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, copper, zinc, vitamin B1, B6, folate, and vitamin E.
4. Research has found that eating regular amounts of walnuts reduces bad cholesterol (LDL) in the blood.
5. With a 7:1 ratio of polyunsaturated to saturated fat, English walnuts are one of the highest naturally occurring sources of polyunsaturated fats.
6. Polyunsaturated fats are an important source of essential fatty acids (EFAs) which we must get from the food we eat. English walnuts are a rich plant source of alpha-linolenic acid, a key EFA from which omega-3 fatty acids are derived.
7. Eating a handful of walnuts a day can lower blood cholesterol. The results of a study conducted at Loma Linda University and reported in 1993 in the New England Journal of Medicine determined that walnuts were beneficial in reducing blood cholesterol levels and protecting against heart disease. Researchers at Loma Linda found that when men with normal cholesterol values were given walnuts instead of foods high in saturated fat and, when calorie levels were held constant, their blood cholesterol levels dropped by more than 12% and their LDL, or bad cholesterol, lowered by more than 16%.
8. English walnuts are a natural source of phytochemicals and antioxidants which protect cells from free radical damage that could result in cancers or heart disease.

They arrived on schedule despite heavy storms."
Maria, TN January 5, 2014

My birds prefer your walnuts to the ones I got at the feed store as yours are always "of course" human grade and FRESH!!
Thank you for the lunch bag, it's awesome! I started using it the very next day.
As always, I'll be back for more & more & more..."
Linda, Waxhaw, NC December 17, 2013
"WOW! I am SO impressed with this fast service and for the follow-up. The Nuts are awesome and were here almost by the time I sent the order! We searched everywhere locally for whole English Walnuts and could not find them this year. THANKS for making my husband happy!"
wally, sierra vista, az December 7, 2013
"Good job. Nuts arrived early. Kids going crazy. Told them we didn't have a nut cracker. Relented and we are enjoying Brazils and English walnuts. thx"
Lela, Ritzville, Wa. November 19, 2013
"The walnuts I ordered and had sent to my 86yr old mother in Nebraska arrived and she was thrilled. She says the nuts are tasty and fresh. She loves cracking walnuts, packaging them and giving them as Christmas gifts. The packaging was wonderful. All the fun writing on the box makes it special. She still thinks I did that and I (smile) am going to let her think it was me! Thank you, Lela"
Shelby, Countryside, Ill November 8, 2013
"I'm completely satisfied with your walnuts very good quality no bad ones in bunch"
Anne, Ewing, NJ October 31, 2013
"I just received my order for Walnuts in the Shell which were nowhere to be found in my area. What service!! Less than one day for delivery. Thank you so much. I will see how my son likes them when he comes to see me
Anne Zamonski"
Joy Colby, South Lake Tahoe, Ca October 10, 2013
"Always fast shipping and GREAT prices.
Quality is excellent"
Rick, Warrington, Pennsylvania October 10, 2013
"Your service is outstanding! My 3 parrots love walnuts and they are are part of their daily diet. I found myself running low & my regular supplier takes 7-10 days. I knew I wouldn't have enough to last that long so I decided to Google "walnuts" & your name came up. After reading the many positive reviews I decided to give you a try. I ordered them Sunday night & they arrived Tuesday afternoon. I couldn't have been happier. I will be using you for all future purchases. Me & "the kids" thank you!"
Showing 31-40 of 213
Karen, Ocean Springs, MS August 21, 2014
"Order them five lbs. at a time. This makes my third order since I found you. They are large and sweet and keep me from eating half a bag of shelled walnuts. I usually crack two when I need a snack and it's just enough."

RG3 tops Rookie QB ranks, Brandon Weeden rises
2. Brandon Weeden, Cleveland Browns Weeden improves every week. He nabs the second spot this here because he showed the full arsenal in the Browns' 17-13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. He's got a big arm and used it on a perfect third-and-13 conversion. He found his second read for a potential touchdown that was called back by penalty. On the next play, he showed touch on a toss Greg Little turned on for a highlight reel. Weeden gives his receivers chances to make plays; he's not afraid. Weeden missed a few deep passes, but a beautiful bomb thrown to Josh Gordon was dropped. Weeden was hit on the play and continues to stand tall in the pocket. He even made a surprising scramble to pick up another third-and-long. The Browns have a nice mix of slants, screens, and vertical throws. Weeden hit three plays over 25 yards and there should have been four. He's probably played his best game of the season four weeks running and hits No. 2 on our countdown for the first time. A true honor.

The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) announced this week that it had successfully disassembled nuclear weapons "pits" and converted them into more than 240 kg of plutonium oxide, an initial step in permanent plutonium disposition.
The certified oxide is an initial source of feed for NNSA's Mixed Oxide (MOX) Fuel Fabrication Facility, which is currently under construction at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina. The disassembly, conversion and certification, which were completed at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), is a significant accomplishment in an ongoing effort to safely dispose of surplus weapon-grade plutonium.
Los Alamos National Laboratory has set a new LANL record for the amount of transuranic (TRU) waste from past nuclearoperations shipped in a single year to the U.S. Department of Energy's Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) near Carlsbad, NM. In fact, the lab has shipped record numbers of transuranic waste each of the past three years.
The lab's TRU Waste Program completed 171 shipments in the past fiscal year, between October 2010 and September 2011, breaking last year's record of 158. The Lab has ramped up its waste disposal effort and has transported more than 450 shipments safely to WIPP since 2009.
Los Alamos National Laboratory researcher Evgenya Simakov has been named by President Barack Obama as a recipient of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE).
Simakov, of the Laboratory's Acceleration and Operations Technology Division, was one of 94 scientists within 16 federal agencies nationwide to receive the honor.

Officials are still working on the autopsy of the infamous aspen tree that caused the largest wildfire in New Mexico history and threatened the Los Alamos National Laboratory and Town Site.
Last month, Bob Parmenter, Dennis Trujillo, and Rebecca Oertel from the Valles Caldera, and Craig Allen, Collin Haffey, and Leanna Lucore from Bandelier, discovered the tree lying across the power line right-of-way on a ridge-top about a quarter mile west of Las Conchas.
The Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board was in Los Alamos last month to meet with NNSA and lab officials and tour transuranic waste operations at Area G and review seismic upgrades the Plutonium Facility.
In a memorandum dated Aug. 19, addressed to technical director T.J. Dwyer, a number of infractions were uncovered.
At the Plutonium facility, a criticality safety infraction was declared. Nuclear criticality safety is dedicated to the prevention of accidents resulting from an inadvertent, self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction.
The general thrust of Joni Arends' presentation at Tuesday night's Chemistry Metallurgy Research Replacement (CMRR) Project meeting was that the facility had to be designed for an 8.0 magnitude earthquake.
Lab officials, meanwhile, contend that the design should be able to withstand a 7.27 earthquake.
So who is right?
"Some of the points that were brought up in presentations were addressed in responses provided to comments made on the CMRR Supplemental EIS," LANL's Larry Goen said Wednesday. "The information we have gathered from the paleoseismic investigations do not suggest earthquakes as large as Magnitude 8 occur on the Pajarito Fault System."
Los Alamos National Laboratory's Bradbury Science Museum will unveil two exhibits next week and hosts a talk about Manhattan Project physicist Richard Feynman on Sept. 29.
All the events are open to the public and coincide with Los Alamos County's "See You In September" celebration of Cultural Heritage Month.
The museum opens its "Fireset" exhibit with a reception from 3 to 4 p.m., Tuesday followed by a discussion and question-and-answer session with Laboratory retiree Glenn McDuff.
The New Mexico Environment Department met with representatives of the U.S. Department of Energy and Los Alamos National Laboratory on Monday to establish a framework for moving forward on Governor Martinez's clean-up priorities for Los Alamos National Laboratory.
"Governor Martinez has emphasized that continued acceleration of above ground transuranic (TRU) waste disposal is a major priority, and protection of ground water and drinking water systems must continue to be priorities notwithstanding potential federal budget decreases," New Mexico Environment Secretary David Martin said.
Drilling operations to affect traffic on the LANL Truck Route
A new groundwater well is scheduled to be drilled on the north side of the Los Alamos National Laboratory Truck Route beginning Saturday, and drivers headed to and from the lab should be aware of trucks turning onto and off the roadway in that area.
The point for trucks entering and exiting the roadway corresponds to where the passing lane begins, about a mile east of the laboratory security force firing range, or just over two miles from the junction of the Truck Route with State Road 4.
Drivers coming down the hill should be especially careful to observe posted speed limits and watch for traffic slowdowns.

Call to keep price rise of meals on wheels to minimum
12:03pm Thursday 30th January 2014 in News
A call has been made for the increase in the price of meals on wheels in Ceredigion to be kept to £4 instead of the proposed £5 - and the council should pay the difference out of its reserves.
Cllr Lyndon Lloyd told this week's healthier communities scrutiny committee that evidence showed elderly people benefited from a hot midday meal.
"I'm very unhappy that we are raising the cost of meals on wheels to £5," he said.
"Pensions in the Cardigan area are lower than elsewhere. These people in their 80s worked on farms and didn't pay their stamp. They are the backbone of the county. I feel very strongly about this."
Committee chair Cllr Alun Lloyd Jones pointed out that the council had to find £9m worth of savings and meals on wheels were already subsidised by over £1 each.
"We can't reduced the price without finding savings from elsewhere," he said.
But Cllr Lloyd said: "We should take the money from reserves out of respect to the elderly and vulnerable in our county."
The county supplies 246 meals on wheels each day.
Strategic director Parry Davies said: "There hasn't been an increase in meals on wheels since 2009 and it hasn't kept pace with the rate of inflation."
He added that cuts could be made to make the meals less expensive but the council prided itself on providing fresh food.
The committee voted to support Cllr Lloyd's proposal despite warnings from the legal department that they could not reverse the budget process.
They also refused to recommend the budget cuts.
No-one on the healthier communities scrutiny committee would back the cuts proposed by the Cabinet.
It is the first time in the council's history that part of the budget has not been approved at scrutiny level.

Walk in to High Voltage Gym in Linfield and you'll notice right away this is not like other larger gyms in the area.
There is a small group of machines in the next room, and a very large mixed martial arts ring in another room.
However, owner Terri Arthur says that what makes High Voltage different is its family-oriented style.
"I like to remember names and goals," Arthur said. "That way, someone walks in I greet them by name and ask, 'how's your work [toward a goal] going?'"
"It gives it a personal touch, you're not a number here," Arthur said.
Arthur and her husband, Morgan Arthur, teach martial arts classes and train members who come to work out.
Among their class offerings are Okinawan Seidokan Karate, Toide Jujitsu, kickboxing, Muay Thai, mixed martial arts, and wrestling. They will soon be adding training in the Tabata Protocol - a high-intensity, short-duration workout system. They also teach conditioning for multiple sports.
There are offerings for all ages - Terri teaches a preschool karate class, and there are even some seniors who visit the gym.
High Voltage Gym is aso the home gym of local MMA fighter Jason Heflin, who will make his pro debut in November.
Morgan Arthur has been teaching for 40 years, Terri for 15 years. They started High Voltage Gym two years ago after leaving the YMCA.
In addition to the work they do in the gym, they have a strong belief in helping people out.
They have done a car show to raise funds for the family of a little girl stricken with cancer.
They work with several special kids - one boy, born with spina bifida, is a "very quick and agile wrestler," Arthur said. There are several children with Down syndrome in karate calsses at the gym.
The Arthurs ran several programs at the YMCA teaching fitness for kids, and hope to start the program up soon at High Voltage.
"We want to teach kids that fitness can be fun," Arthur said.
