Tee Time in Berzerkistan: A Doonesbury Book (Doonesbury Collection)by G B Trudeau
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
No rogue regime ever needed its evildoing professionally reframed more urgently than Greater Berzerkistan, whose president-for-life Trff Bmzklfrpz (pronounced "Ptklm") needs to spin a recent round of ethnic cleansing. Fortunately, the pariah state (and its 50-hole golf course, built overnight by Kurds and Jews) borders Iran, a fact that K Street uberlobbyist Duke is retained to parlay into a major U.S. arms package.
Meanwhile, across town, the crumbling of the newspaper industry crushes Rick Redfern's hope of continuing employment. After 35 years at the Washington Post, he is ejected into the blogosphere, where his prose now battles it out with that of 1,186,783,465 rivals, including Roland Hedley, who takes the art of Twittering to a new self-reverential low.
Truly, everyone in Doonesburyland is struggling to adapt. While white Washington insiders scramble to acquire some African American friends, longtime black conservative Clyde schemes to score Obama's Blackberry number, Clinton-era Dems are forced to attend the president-elect's "No Drama School," and Jimmy Thudpucker once again reboots his career--this time as a cell phone ring-tone artist.
No one ever said change was pretty.
About the Author
2010 marks the 40th year since G. B. Trudeau began drawing Doonesbury. The strip has angered, irritated, and rebuked every president since Nixon. He and his family live in New York.

Research Activities
Gastrointestinal diseases remain one of the most common reasons for morbidity and hospitalisation in Europe and are, due to the demographic change, still on the rise.
There is a constant need for research to prevent GI disease, develop better, more cost effective diagnosis and treatments and improve the accessibility to optimal clinical care. UEG is engaged in various activities targeted to develop a long term perspective for research. For more details please refer to the project descriptions below.
EU Funding
The UEG Public Affairs Team continuously provides updates on EU funding programmes, most importantly Horizon 2020, the largest research and innovation framework in Europe.
Find out more
Over the past year, the Futures Trends Committee together with external experts collaborated with NormannPartners to produce a set of scenarios on possible future contexts for hospital care, home care, and self-care; and how these might affect the research, teaching, and services offered by UEG's Member Societies.
The result is a small-scale, set of three scenarios setting out plausible and challenging future contexts in which GI health delivery might find itself. This work was undertaken primarily over a course of workshops, as well as substantial work by the scenario builders.
The final results will be presented at UEG Week Vienna 2014.
UEG will publish a comprehensive survey of digestive health in Europe with the overall aim of defining and describing the burden of digestive diseases in Europe and to make an assessment of the breadth and quality of current service provision.
An experienced research group was assigned for this review led by John Williams and Stephen Roberts from Swansea University consisting of 10 senior investigators covering gastroenterology, health economics and epidemiology. The final results of the survey will be available for download on occasion of UEG Week Vienna 2014.

Mr. Gregory Arianoff-Kobata is the Libertarian candidate for State Senate in District 1. Gregory believes that government has created and continues to create wasteful departments that consistently hinder prosperity by regulating markets. Every job "created" by government costs taxpayers infinite amounts of money, while every job created by the private sector costs taxpayers nothing! Reducing the government is the only path to economic and individual freedom, and that was the vision of the Forefathers of this great country.
District 1 is located on Hawai'i Island also known as the Big Island of Hawaii, the area encompasses; Hilo from Honoli'i Stream up to and including Keaukaha, Waiakea and Waiakea Uka. For further information visit the State of Hawaii Elections website. If you reside in this district please make sure you come forward and ask questions, we will be happy to answer them.
What is a Libertarian? Well, anyone who believes in liberty. It's really that simple! If you have had it with the status quo, your choice is simple, a fresh point of view and a new choice is here!
Yours in Liberty!

Looking back at the 2013-14 Toronto Maple Leafs season, we all know that their defense left a lot to be desired. Sure, they had some good youngsters back there in Jake Gardiner and Morgan Rielly, but there were more than a few D-Men that didn't live up to expectations.
The off-season could see a few changes to the Leafs blue line. While a lot of fans would like to see Dion Phaneuf shipped out, that is unlikely to happen. However, players like Cody Franson, Paul Ranger and quite possibly Gardiner might all not be back.
If the Leafs do move some defensemen, they will obviously need to replace them. While some blue liners from the Toronto Marlies might be ready to make the jump, it's unlikely that the Leafs would want a blue line comprised mostly of rookies. That means they will look to add via free agency or trade.
For now, lets just look at free agency. While the defensive free agent pool isn't that deep, there are some experienced defensemen that could help the Leafs on the ice while possibly mentoring their young defensemen. With the salary cap going up and the Leafs due to jettison a few players, they should have the cap room to bring in a capable veteran.
Among the list of older defensemen that are currently on pace to become unrestricted free agents on July 1 are: Dan Boyle, Kimmo Timonen, Andrei Markov, Joni Pitkanen and Brooks Orpik. There are also some defensemen under the age of 3o that could be available: Andrej Meszaros, Kyle Quincey, Matt Niskanen, Nikita Nikitin and Anton Stralman.
The Leafs need some more experience on the blue line and all of the players above could help the team. Of course, there is still plenty of time for teams to re-sign their free agents before July 1. Even if most of them do, the Leafs will more than likely be to afford only one. Who should it be?

- About MUSC Health
The Comprehensive Stroke and Cerebrovascular Center at MUSC, a Joint Commission–certified primary stroke center, recently received a 2014 Get With the Guidelines Stroke Gold Plus Quality Achievement Award from the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association, the fourth year in a row that it has earned this honor. This award recognizes exceptional care for stroke patients based on evidence-based guidelines, in particular the dramatic improvements in MUSC's door-to-needle time (the time between hospital arrival and administration of thrombolytic therapy), which decreased from a mean of 107 minutes in 2011 to 56 in 2012 to 41 in 2013 (national recommendation: <60).
Stroke specialists at MUSC received two of the three top honors at the 2013 International Stroke Conference. Robert J. Adams, M.D., MS, Director of the South Carolina REACH Stroke Network, REACH MUSC, and the South Carolina Stroke Center of Economic Excellence, received the David G. Sherman Award, which recognizes outstanding contributions in the stroke field. Marc I. Chimowitz, MBChB, Professor in MUSC's Department of Neurosciences, received the William M. Feinberg Award for Excellence in Clinical Stroke, which recognizes significant contributions to clinical research in stroke. A recent example of Dr. Chimowitz's contribution to stroke research is the October 2013 Lancet article reporting the final results of the multisite SAMMPRIS trial (NCT00576693), of which he is the principal investigator.

Every end has its beginning…
Lately, I find myself with a constant inner struggle.
Today, I have reached my lowest point. The breaking point. The point where I have lost all self-esteem.
I hate my body and the monster that it has become. I haven't always felt this way, but when I look in the mirror now, I hate what I see.
A round protruding stomach. Masculine shoulders. Rolls of fat where my arms meet my body. An almost double chin. Chipmunk cheeks.
I turn to the side.
Fat arms. Back fat. A flat, saggy ass. And back to that stomach again.
I try to correct it. Stand up straight. Suck it in. Push the remainder of the belly bulge in with my hands.
Except for the fact that I can't breathe.
I take one breath and go back to the body that is mine and look at my phone. My boyfriend has sent me a picture of us from when we first started dating around two years ago with the caption "I miss this girl." (Picture below)
Tears flood my eyes as the sting of what he says pours into my brain like salt in a fresh wound. The only possible thing that could be missing from the person in that picture is the body. Although not a tiny frame, I was happy with the way that I looked and it showed on my face; I had confidence.
I reply. "I'm still the same person. I don't see why me being a bit fatter changes anything." After all, it's not like I weigh 300 pounds or so. I've added about 30 pounds since we've been together. Something I am not proud of by any means.
After a little banter about getting a gym membership like I have been talking about for a few months now, which I have not had the money to do so I work out around my house, he says "And looks do change things…"
Throwing more salt on the wound. How can you not realize that when someone is trying their hardest to lose the weight they've gained so rapidly that when you say things like this it only breaks their self-esteem even farther? The one person that I thought I could count on for support believes that his best motivation is a put down. I can't believe this…

Happy 300th Birthday Benjamin Franklin
CmdrTaco posted more than 8 years ago | from the today-in-history dept.277
Guinnessy writes "Benjamin Franklin was born on 17 January 1706 in Boston, Massachusetts. Franklin was a man of diverse talents: publisher, inventor, ambassador, politician, wit with some human frailities says NPR. In Physics Today, Philip Krider presents Franklin's work on electricity and the development of the lightning rod, work whose fame helped Franklin obtain aid from the French against the British. In the same magazine, Joost Mertens considers Franklin's explorations of the calming effects of oil on water. Those investigations, it turns out, had a less than calming effect on Dutch scholars. Philadelphia is planning a series of events celebratng Franklin's life throughtout the year."

Even though there are lot of dentists in San Francisco, there are always some who will rise up from the rest due to their excellent qualities. If you are looking for a good dentist SF, then it might be a good idea to look for below mentioned qualities so that you can be assured that you dental needs are well taken care of.
The most important thing that you need to consider when you are looking for a good dental practitioner is the educational background and experience. Good dentists are normally graduates of institutions that are accredited by American Dental Association. They have state license which is timely renewed.
A good dentist should have experience in his field. Therefore, look out for someone who is in the industry for at least couple of years.
A good dentist will be able to communicate well with his patients. For most of the patients, a visit to a dentist is often associated with anxiety and apprehension. A good dentist will be able to remove all those fears associated with dental procedures, and will build a good rapport with their patients. He explains in detail about the procedures and responds well to your questions.
The work of a dentist requires great precision and focus. A good dentist should be able to concentrate fully and should not be distracted during the dental procedure. His focus is completely on the patient and his dental problems. He should carry out a thorough dental examination during your dental visit. This includes inspection of teeth, gums, tongue, lips, cheeks and skin of face and neck.
Dentists are there to safeguard yours as well as your family's dental and oral health. Therefore, it is essential to find a good dentist SF who can handle all your dental needs professionally.
Because you might be shopping for designer sunglasses online, make sure to check the web store. Their frames are a result of top quality materials and revolutionary production techniques making each Armani sunglass a unique and personal experience. Polarized lens reduces glare off water, the best boating sunglasses are polarized. Unlike most other sunglasses (including Oakleys), these components is not CR-39, glass, polycarbonate, or any other such materials. Bring the rebel in you with the women's oakley designer disobey sunglasses.
There are lots of options available online from where you can compare and select the hottest and smartest one. Benjamen Franklin's invention of bifocal lenses followed in 1780. Amidst a bright sun-filled sky as well as the reflection in the clear blue water, there's zero better test for shades. Ralph Lauren the world renowned American designer best recognized for his type of clothing under the Polo Ralph Lauren name. July 2010 update thanks to some kind reader: Oakley outlet closed.
Human sunglasses features are distinctively distinctive from dog sunglasses, and you may do it for entertainment but you don. Polarized filters might be used to create more dramatic, contrasted skies, to lessen reflections in windows and screens, to darken a bright day. The more complex a hearing aid is, greater valuable it becomes. It applied for the market by introducing wrist watches. Halle Barry sported the tortoise look of Balenciaga sunglasses.
The others explanations why people like Carreras sunglasses are these. But the years have changed to some large extent and currently, the role of sunglass, much like people, has changed to a large extent. They are usually opted for by people who drive considerably during the day or boat often on the water. But to the average person, simple plus more conservative styles are often preferred. To are now living in sunny Southern California without signature sunglasses is much like living in New York City without signature winter boots— everybody has got to have one, so why not go for instant fashion happiness then one up on style with designer shades.
Thank you again towards the companies mentioned for supplying their goods for review. Both big and traditional brands have produced their particular take of aviators. The websites of such online stores are made for easy navigation to create your online shopping an expedient, hassle-free and enjoyable experience. Of course, these sunglasses vary and redesigned. The arms are finished raised recycled metal proof logos.
I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for the law.

Good, but not Great
Be Merry Rectangle Invitations I wish this design had more to it - it's a really simple design. I wanted a Typography-type invitation on short notice and we decided on this one. The value and pricing are GREAT! I love how you can add your Wedding Colors to make it a little more personal and change out the verbage - Just wish it was a little more unique. I feel like I could have made this on my computer myself.
Perfect for Dance Invite
Bold Statement Rectangle Invitations We ordered this invitation for our "Party Only" guests since we had a small venue and intimate wedding. We ordered the "Bold Statement" Pockets for the Main invitations so these were a PERFECT compliment! I would definitely recommend these!
Good buy at a goodprice
live.laugh.love Rectangle Invitations The invitations turned out perfect. They were exactly what we had built and the quality was excellent.
Clean design
live.laugh.love Rectangle Invitations The card was beautiful and I loved the design so much that I didn't mind the personalization limitations. I wanted to try to make the card more "formal" by listing my mother's name at the top as the hostess of my wedding, however this wasn't possible. The fields with the names are customizable as far as how large the names are, but no other information can be entered in these spaces. Again, because this was my favorite card by design, I still ordered it and the quality and print was excellent. I highly recommend this invitation!
Modern Elegance
Bold Statement Foldover Pockets I LOVE my invitations. I personalized them to have our logo replace the logo that originally came on the front of the invitation. I removed the arrows on the front as well but left the ones inside. I changed the colors multiple times and the final result is perfect. I love that you can request custom changes to make your invite exactly what you want. I was even called to make sure my numbers were correct because I ordered less of one product (on purpose). The service and speed were right on target and the cost point could not have been better. The coupons are fabulous and so is the quality. My invitations cost half of what my sister-in-laws cost from an invitation shop. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2014
Where did the English Foxworth family come from? What is the English Foxworth family crest and coat of arms? When did the Foxworth family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Foxworth family history?
Foxworth has been spelled many different ways, including Before English spelling became standardized over the last few hundred years, spelling variations in names were a common occurrence. As the English language changed in the Middle Ages, absorbing pieces of Latin and French, as well as other languages, the spelling of people's names also changed considerably, even over a single lifetime. Folksworth, Foulkesworth, Foulksworth, Folkesworth, Follsworth and many more.
First found in Northampton where they held a family seat as Lords of the Manor. The Saxon influence of English history diminished after the Battle of Hastings in 1066. The language of the courts was French for the next three centuries and the Norman ambience prevailed. But Saxon surnames survived and the family name was first referenced in the 13th century when they held estates in that shire.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Foxworth research. Another 310 words(22 lines of text) covering the years 1455, 1487, 1510, 1541, and 1600 are included under the topic Early Foxworth History in all our PDF Extended History products.
More information is included under the topic Early Foxworth Notables in all our PDF Extended History products.
In an attempt to escape the chaos experienced in England, many English families boarded overcrowded and diseased ships sailing for the shores of North America and other British colonies. Those families hardy enough, and lucky enough, to make the passage intact were rewarded with land and a social environment less prone to religious and political persecution. Many of these families became important contributors to the young colonies in which they settled. Early immigration and passenger lists have documented some of the first Foxworths to arrive on North American shores:
Foxworth Settlers in the United States in the 20th Century
The Foxworth Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Foxworth Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname.

Five areas across the country have been designated as "Promise Zones" by the federal government. These zones, announced by President Obama in January, are intended to tackle poverty by focusing on individual urban neighborhoods and rural areas.
In the five Promise Zones — located in Philadelphia, San Antonio, southeastern Kentucky, the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma and Los Angeles — the idea is to basically carpet-bomb the neighborhoods with programs like after-school classes, GED courses and job training to turn those areas around.

On Independence Day, ceremonial swearing-in ceremonies of new citizens are traditional — a celebration of the country's past and its evolving future. On Friday, 7,500 people from across the country will take the Oath of Allegiance and become naturalized U.S. citizens.
Most foreign citizens who live in the U.S. are here legally but are not citizens. So on the anniversary of the day when Americans declared themselves no longer subjects of the King of England, what does citizenship means to those who do choose to naturalize?

The BlackBerry is definitely getting funkier. The latest version of the iconic corporate messaging device has been given a very slick facelift, with a slim chrome and black look and a trackball navigation control that first debuted on its Pearl 8100 prosumer cameraphone.
The attractive Pearl look and feel has been carried over to this model, and it certainly looks sharper than some of the previous BlackBerrys. But the refresh doesn't stop on the surface. The 8800 is the first such device to feature a built in GPS receiver, offering users integrated mapping, location finding and navigation via the onboard BlackBerry Maps application. Cramming in sat nav functionality in such a slimline device is impressive - and it's one of the few mobile devices around with this native skill.
Messaging is, of course, at the core of the BlackBerry experience. Research In Motion (RIM) set the template for the Qwerty-equipped messaging device, and this model comes with a full 35-key Qwerty keypad rather than the truncated version sported by the Pearl and RIM's other candybar-like BlackBerrys.
Being able to type well is only part of the equation for a good messaging device though, and the large 320 x 240 pixel 65k-colour display ensures that messages can be viewed optimally onscreen. The large widescreen format of course has the added benefit of enhancing the 8800's other screen-based functionality - not least the sat nav.
The onboard browser also benefits, plus there's a multimedia player that can deliver video and audio playback. In fact, with the welcome addition of memory card support - via a MicroSD slot under the back panel - users can stack up tracks for playback as an alternative to an MP3 player. So not quite the all-serious BlackBerry, then.
One concession to the corporate environment, however, is the lack of a camera. Although virtually every mobile now is a cameraphone whether you like it or not, many big businesses still tend to be twitchy on the camera issue for security reasons. So although we get here many nods to the Pearl's spec, photography isn't one of them.
Still, there is the ability to receive, send and forward MMS picture and video messages, it's just a no-no for generating snaps yourself.
Clever design
A full Qwerty keypad by its nature stretches the girth of a mobile device, hence the squeezed up two-letters-per-key version on the Pearl. RIM has been clever with the design, each key being subtly elliptical and grooved so that individual keys feel separate even though they're small and bunched together. The number keys are reserved for the left of the keypad, doubling up with letters in fairly standard phone numberpad formation. The space bar on the bottom is suitably large to suit fast-ish typing.
Naturally, the keyboard does take a little getting used to, particularly if you've never tried one on a phone before, but any regular BlackBerry tapper will feel well in the comfort zone with this format. Two-thumb typing is certainly quicker than regular text message typing, and delivers a good experience for composing emails.
The Pearl-like trackball is a nifty navigation addition too, replacing the thumbwheel that was a staple of previous BlackBerrys. It's not quite a mouse, but does ramp up the speed you can roll through menus, scroll up and across emails and navigate maps. Press it in to select a function or pull up additional menus, it's a very intuitive and tactile way of skipping along.
Immediately flanking the trackball are a BlackBerry-logoed main Menu key and a back key, to get you to the previous page. Either side of these are call and end keys.
Around the rest of the device, there's a set of volume controls on one edge, the power key and mute key on top, and a mini-USB port and headphone socket on the other side, plus a key to activate voice dialling and status updates.
RIM's made it very simple to shift the order of the main menu so your home screen displays the half dozen features you most want to have to hand. In the full icon menu you can highlight an icon to move with a press of the BlackBerry key, select and then simply drag and drop using the trackball. Easy - almost PC.
In practice, the messaging functions will be the most heavily used apps here. For push email, there's options for the full corporate BlackBerry Enterprise Server version, or the consumer-friendly BlackBerry Internet Service version. The consumer service enables users to set the device up to receive email from up to 10 ISP or POP3 email accounts, with an easy set-up procedure making it a straightforward proposition.
As you'd expect with a BlackBerry, this all works very smoothly. Messages received and are listed clearly in the appropriate folder, and it can send or receive and view attachments - including JPEGs, PDFs, Word Exel and PowerPoint files - with no fuss. There is a decent selection of email management options onboard too.
As well as email, the 8800 offers regular text and MMS messaging, plus BlackBerry Messenger instant messaging with which you can communicate with friends or colleagues using Yahoo! Messenger or Google Talk. It works like on a PC, so you can see who's online and set your own status.
The satellite navigation capability will no doubt be another key feature users will make a bee-line for. It's still unusual to find integrated Sat Nav in a mobile device; a trickle of Windows Mobile-powered phone products with integrated GPS receivers has begun and a few other regular phone models - notably Nokia's upcoming N95 and 6110 - are leading a path many mobile makers are sure to follow.
The 8800 uses an onboard GPS receiver that's provided with BlackBerry Maps out of the box (though other BlackBerry-compatible applications could be used). It can be used to locate your position and can provide navigation and route planning, with GPS tracking via onscreen maps as you proceed. Usefully, BlackBerry Maps is integrated with other apps onboard, so you can select addresses and generate maps by clicking on contacts, and also send maps by email.
Unlike most sat nav applications for Symbian and Windows Mobile devices, the BlackBerry Maps mapping info isn't stored on a high capacity memory card that allows for a self contained navigation system. Instead, the application downloads maps in small snippets of data as needed from the BlackBerry server.
This data is cached as you go along so refreshes onscreen remain fairly smooth. While this enables you to keep the memory card free for other uses, and theoretically allows mapping info to be updated more regularly, it does mean you're reliant on a decent GPRS signal to get navigation information, and those using the 8800 for sat nav who aren't already signed up to a flat rate deal (most BlackBerry corporate users presumably would be) are advised to do so.
In practice, the BlackBerry Maps sat nav application is a nice extra to have, but doesn't offer the same in-depth detail of other mobile smartphone packages, and is a far-cry from the in-car systems many corporate car owners (and ordinary users) will be already familiar with. It does offer zoom in and out functions, and route planning with text instructions onscreen and a route mapper , but you don't get the snazzy 3D graphics, voice instructions and other eye-catching extras - though admittedly you don't pay extra for it either.
Optimised browsing
The 8800 also has as standard issue a web browser which offers an optimised small screen rendering of regular websites, or an optimised desktop-style view. It's speedy, considering there is no 3G on this phone. There is a useful selection of navigation options, brought up by pressing the BlackBerry Menu key, including overviews of pages to help shift around using the trackball. This may not be quite as 'rich' as other smartphone browsers using high-speed networks, but it is effective.
The media player looks good on screen, and puts in an excellent audio performance; you can add a variety of music file formats (MP3, AAC, AAC , eAAC , WMA, AMR-NB, MIDI) and video clips (MPEG4, H.263, WMV) to the 8800 in several ways. You can use an optional MicroSD card (none is supplied as standard with the device) or via hook up to a PC or Mac via the supplied USB lead (you can also synchronise contacts from your desktop email in this way too with downloaded BlackBerry software).
Tuning into tracks on the media player via the onboard speaker produces surprisingly lively results with a decent volume and good quality performance. The BlackBerry comes with a stereo handsfree headset kit that improves on that significantly, delivering a warm and pleasing musical experience with a fine sonic range and balance. It uses a 2.5mm jack, so with an adapter (no supplied) you could stick in regular headphones too.
Video playback of loaded clips is good too, boosted by the visual real estate offered by the widescreen display. Not all the screen is utilised, with the video player framing top and bottom, but it is larger than most regular mobile devices.
As mentioned earlier, the MicroSD card support boosts the multimedia storage credentials of the 8800; 64MB of onboard flash memory is provided, although no additional microSD card is supplied by RIM - that will be up to individual service providers. The card holder is tucked in the centre of the back, beneath the rear panel and held in a SIM-card style cradle. A touch fiddly, but it can be swapped without having to power down the device.
In addition to the headline features, the 8800 offers mid-range add-ons, such as speaker-independent voice dialling, Bluetooth connectivity, and Java support. One game, BrickBreaker, is included but more can be added plus other BlackBerry specific applications are widely available to download.
Other functions onboard include a Password Keeper function, MemoPad, alarm, and voice note sender option. Useful set-up Wizards and Help functions are also useful to have around.
RIM hasn't take the kitchen-sink approach to adding features to the BlackBerry 8800. It has upgraded the device with an eye on what the corporate user finds useful rather than simply ticking off all the boxes demanded by high-end consumers.
The addition of GPS is a nice touch, although not a must-buy application - you'll get a better, if more expensive experience with standalone or Symbian/Windows Mobile add-on packages.
3G isn't included here either, although for the core messaging applications this is of no great loss -BlackBerry's push email is already practically as fast as your desktop PC. The browsing experience is also compensated for at by BlackBerry's rendering optimisation software onboard.
What you do get here is the evolutionary next stage of the BlackBerry, with an improved keyboard and trackball navigation and with secure swappable memory capability. A welcome addition that besides its fine media player and clever GPS, retains excellent messaging functionality at the core of its business.

On Friday night, we took Addie to her first Mardi Gras parade. There's a local krewe that parades right in front of our subdivision, so we thought what better opportunity for her to experience it. I wasn't crazy about the idea that it would not even reach where we stood until well after her normal bedtime, but I knew she would enjoy it!
|running around while it was still daylight
|sitting in her chair like a big girl
|waiting patiently to walk out to the route

|taking a break before the parade starts
|throw me something!

I was told if you cannot think of a title for your story to keep on writing and the title will eventually come. Maybe that is horse shit or maybe you know that title before you even begin?Hmmm… What do ya think?
I will be 25 in ten days, oh shit. A quarter of a century old and I have feel like I have accomplished jack shit. Perhaps it's because of the location I am currently at?
I was told the other day I need to focus on working out and not on food. My life revolves around food, almost every minute of it. I love it, how can you tell me not to focus on the one thing that is keeping me happy? I guess you don't know jack shit about me then. I work at a restaurant. I went to school for cooking. When I'm free I wonder what am I gunna feed myself? I like beer, in fact, I love beer. Yes I have made mistakes because of my love for beer and because of it I am considered an alcoholic. I do also love working out and playing sports, it's a part of who I am. I wish I wouldn't have to explain myself. I feel like I am in a relationship.
I don't do relationships. I have once or twice depending on whom you speak with. I don't want to be married, although, I was engaged once, ironic.The whole explanation for that, perhaps sometime later, not to interesting.
Random thought: I miss Portland. I miss everything about it. I cannot believe I left besides the point my roomy went a tid bit crazy. Damn pills.
Sitting by the wood stove with the moonlight shining in and the music blaring. Oh man what chill times. Life now has changed, for the better.
This is the first time I have been able to write since I have lived in WA and I have been loving every minute of it. Perhaps it's because I know not that many people will read this or perhaps it's just because I am half way happy.
I am listening to Slightly Stoopid, Officer, right meow and all I am doing is singing the song. Great song.
Ha ha I bought a dub from my dishwasher from work, he's like eighteen… he doesn't know what's up and this other cook is trying to compete against him ohhh man. They be acting crazy.
It really makes me want to get back in the game. Hmmm. Perhaps. Anyways got drunk by the time I begun writing thus. I am listening to Sparta to keep me SANE. Mary B out!

From the introduction:
Though there is little that is "new" in the way of sleights here, this routine came from years of careful trial
and error. The five phases represented here are the final result. I've found, after thousands of performances, that for the walk-around performer, this routine is just the right length to maintain spectator interest. Also, like any magic routine where the same effect is apparently repeated a number of times, each phase offers an apparently more impossible set of circumstances. It also ends with a natural applause cue.

Sonnet 14 Lyrics - Marianne Faithfull
(William Shakespeare)
Not from the stars do I my judgement pluck,
And yet methinks I have astronomy;
But not to tell of good or evil luck,
Of plagues, or dearths, or seasons' quality;
Nor can I fortune to brief minutes tell,
Pointing to each his thunder, rain, and wind,
Or say with princess if it whall go well
By oft predict that I in heaven find.
But from thine eyes my knowledge I derive,
And, constant stars, in them I read such art
As truth and beauty shall together thrive
If from thyself to store thou wouldst convert:
Or else of thee this I prognosticate,
They and is truth's and beauty's doom and date.

The guys at my LBS recommended these. Thanks! They are worth every penny. Really made a difference in helping to keep my toes warm. Caveat: I don't ride in ultra-cold weather (less than 45 F) so haven't tested them in those conditions. But on windy 50 degree days they really help.

[cleeng_content id="241265405" description="Read it now!" price="0.49" t="article"]SHENANDOAH JUNCTION — In advancing its early season record to 2-0, Jefferson made visiting Mountain Ridge pay when the Miners had first-half turnovers.
The Cougars scored three times in the first half after Mountain Ridge turnovers and then finalized a 28-6 win with a last touchdown that saw a drive kept in motion by a roughing the kicker penalty.
Jefferson's scoring began in the second quarter when quarterback Andrew King hooked up with Christian Johnson on an 11-yard scoring pass. That drive went 51 yards after the Miners lost a fumble. It was a 14-0 Cougars' lead when Jefferson recovered a third lost fumble by the Miners. A.J. Pierson's 16-yard run completed the scoring march.
With about three minutes left in the first half, Martinez Grant grabbed a 5-yard touchdown pass from King that gave the Cougars a 21-0 lead at the half.
In the second half, Jefferson's Jalon Smith was standing in punt formation. Smith was roughed by an all-out Miner rush and the 15-yard penalty resulted in a Jefferson first down. Moving an additional 48 yards after the penalty was assessed, the Cougars were up, 28-0, when King scored from in close.
A bit of trickery resulted in Mountain Ridge's only points. From punt formation, the Miners faked a punt and instead had Rashawn Johnson slip past the Cougar defense for a 45-yard score that took seven points off the lead and made it 28-6.
Two late-game interceptions of Mountain Ridge passes by the Cougars kept the formidible lead at 22 points.
Hampshire will provide the Cougars with an unbeaten (2-0) opponent after the Trojans have opened with wins over Preston and Elkins. It will be Jefferson's first road game and game time is 7 p.m. in Romney at Rannells Field.

Roadmap for BJJ Package Now Available Again!
A few years ago I released the Roadmap for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instructional package.
This is a multi-component product that focuses on the strategies, tactics, techniques and training methods of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It's basically a quick start guide for how to get good on the ground as fast as possible. (more…)
4 Tips to Pass ANY Guard
Passing the guard of a skilled opponent is one of the hardest things to do in BJJ.
If you don't believe me, take a look at high level BJJ and submission grappling competition like the Mundials or ADCC. (more…)
Ronda Rousey and the Power of Gameplans
In case you were hiding under a rock, Ronda Rousey fought Liz Carmouche last night at UFC 157. She both validated her UFC Women's Bantamweight title, and made history by being in the first-ever women's match in the the UFC.
And just in case you were under that aforementioned rock, despite a very spirited fight by Liz Carmouche, Ronda won the match with an armbar at 4:49 of the first round. (more…)
How to Improve Your Hip and Leg Flexibility
Hip and leg flexibility is a huge asset in grappling, especially when it comes to not letting your opponent pass your guard, for launching sneaky sweeps and submissions from the guard position, and for weaseling your way out of tight pins.
Plus if you're training in MMA, Muay Thai, Karate, Kickboxing, or any other martial art that involves kicking then flexibility will obviously help you out there as well. (more…)
Inflexible, Stiff Back? Try This Workout...
There's almost nothing worse than a painful back. Unlike other body parts, an injury to your back comes to define your entire life.
If your arm is strained, or you've twisted your knee, or if you've tweaked your shoulder, then usually you can find a way to get through your day without aggravating your injury too much. But a sore back finds a way to haunt you every second of every day. (more…)
The Difference Between the Brabo Choke and the Anaconda Choke... Plus Tips for Both
I recently received the following question about the Brabo and Anaconda chokes from a reader of the Grapplearts Newsletter:
Fifty Ways to Improve Your Grappling Almost Immediately
Sometimes the best way to get better is simply to stop doing things wrong.
Over the years I've shot quite a few guerilla-style videos breaking down many of the most common mistakes that I see for different positions and submissions. (more…)
3 Ways to Get a Really Heavy Kneemount
When I started doing BJJ the kneemount position kind of confused me…
I knew that it was considered to be a good position, and I knew it led to a bunch of submission options, but still, it never really 'clicked' for me. (more…)
How to Stop Your Opponent from Turtling During Your Guard Pass
I was recently asked the following question:
"Hi Stephan, My biggest problem on the mats right now is people turtling and going to their to knees when I'm about to pass their guard. Once they're in turtle they either roll back to guard or stand up and all the hard work I did to pass their guard is for nothing. (more…)
How to Salvage a Failed Butterfly Guard Sweep
The 'basic' butterfly guard sweep is one of the most strongest sweeps in grappling. That's why it shows up again and again at the highest levels of competition. It's powerful, reliable, and works for a wide range of body types. It works with and without the gi, on bigger people, smaller people, wrestlers, and judoka.
This combination of power and versatility makes the butterfly guard sweep one of my favorite go-to moves of all time! (more…)
Hidden Techniques for Maintaining Rear Mount
When people teach the rear mount they often show you how to get your hooks in to achieve the rear mount, and then they teach you a couple of submissions from the back.
Their idealized flowchart has two steps:
- Get your hooks in,
- Submit your opponent.
Oh, if only life were so simple!
No Gi Guard Passing Strategies vs. Bigger People
Passing the guard in a technical manner during no gi training can often be very frustrating, especially for people coming from a gi-based background. To the uninitiated it just seems that things move too fast… That there aren't any good handles to control your opponent… (more…)
Ambush Armbar from Modified Scarf Hold
I might not be 100% correct with the actual wording, but I'll always remember this fantastic quote from Karate legend Bill 'Superfoot' Wallace which I read in Black Belt magazine many years ago. It went something like this:
How to Pass Deep Half Guard
In the last 5 years the Deep Half Guard position has taken the BJJ and submission grappling world by storm. And every serious grappler now needs to know how to neutralize and pass the Deep Half Guard.
This position is a variation of the half guard. If someone manages to get settled into this position underneath you then they're right under your center of gravity, can compromise your balance, and very likely be able sweep you or take your back with a wide variety of techniques. (more…)
How to set up and apply the head and arm choke
Here's a clip of Emily Kwok teaching something really cool – how to set up the head and arm choke (also known as 'kata gatame') from mount, and then how to ratchet it on so tightly that your opponent has no choice but to tap out, no matter how big he is. (more…)
A Surprising Way to Pull Guard...
Should you pull guard in competition? And if you decide to pull guard, then how do you do it correctly?
In a certain sense, I am uniquely unqualified to answer these questions…
You see, much of my BJJ comes from 8th degree black belt Marcus Soares, and Marcus is very much from the old-school Carlson Gracie way of doing things. (more…)
How to Counter the Armlock from the Underhook
If you have any exposure to standup grappling then you know the power of a standing underhook. It allows you to dominate your opponent, move him around, and set up lots of throws, takedowns and other moves. (more…)
How to Defeat a Smaller Opponent
Smaller opponents can become big nuisances, especially if they have legitimate skills.
You would think that the very fact that you're bigger than your opponent means you should be able to go full-Conan on them every time…
Mongol General: "Conan! What is best in life?"
Conan: "To crush your enemies, see them driffen before you, and to hear the lamentation of their vimmen." (more…)
The Jab-Cross of Open Guard Sweeps
Let's talk about two of my favorite sweeps from the open guard. These are high percentage techniques that are used again and again at every level, by novice whitebelts and world-class blackbelts.
When learning a new position I think it's important to learn the high percentage stuff right away. (more…)
How to do the Butterfly Guard Sweep
Today I want to teach you how to do the most important sweep from the butterfly guard correctly.
This is because sometimes in life, you just HAVE to learn certain things. (more…)
An Advanced Guard Sweep
What is an 'advanced' guard sweep?
Well, sometimes it's a technique that requires such ridiculous levels of strength, flexibility, or explosiveness that it's completely out of reach of 99% of recreational BJJ players. (more…)
A Fancy-Pants Z Guard Pass that Never Worked Until...
There's this one impressive, fancy-pants guard pass that I've seen in competition many times. It makes everybody go 'oooh' and 'aaaah', but despite its dramatic nature it's undeniably effective and has won a LOT of matches at the highest levels of competition.
I tried to imitate this technique, of course, but it was always a complete disaster. I never managed to figure out exactly what these high-level guys were doing. (more…)
Best Takedown vs. Larger Opponents?
Every grappler needs to have a basic understanding of takedowns. You don't want to be so uni-dimensional that you have no idea how to take somebody down.
But the problem is that not every takedown you learn from Judo or wrestling will work on someone a lot bigger and stronger than you. (more…)
Stabilizing and Attacking Larger Opponents from Sidemount
Many battles are lost by not sufficiently stabilizing sidemount, and/or choosing the wrong attacks to use from that otherwise dominant position.
Let's say that you've done everything right and cut through the guard of a bigger stronger opponent. (more…)
BJJ Training Strategies
Having the right assortment of techniques is pretty darn important in BJJ. But having the right training strategies is even more important…
By 'training strategies' I'm talking about the big picture. Like knowing which techniques to use, when to use them, and how to correctly train those techniques in the first place. (more…)

PrintAustin will be held from January 15 to February 15, 2015. Our second annual print fest is a month-long event celebrating the art of original printmaking, educating the public about the traditions of printmaking as well as showcasing the innovations of the contemporary approach.
Our mission to the Austin art community and galleries is to share our enthusiasm for printmaking by helping galleries curate, exhibit, and promote works on paper, and to engage a wider audience through in-house artist talks, signings, panels, printmaking demonstrations, and print focused art happenings.
