Give the perfect gift this season - gift cards! Starting at just $25!
Just a few short years ago, the UFC was financially struggling and trying to avoid having to fold up their business, while the WWE was at the top of their game, raking in millions for their Pay-Per-View events both in television sales and ticket sales. Fast forward to today and the WWE is still raking in millions, but the UFC has had an incredible turnaround in mainstream success surpassing the WWE in demand for their Pay-Per-View events both on television (UFC routinely has more Pay-Per-View buys) and in the stands.
I decided to do a comparison of the next three Pay-Per-View events for both the WWE and the UFC to see just how big the difference is in demand for tickets for both organizations. I looked at sales on the TicketNetwork Exchange for WWE's Night of Champions (Sept. 18), Hell in a Cell (Oct. 2) and Vengeance (Oct. 23), and compared them to UFC 135 (Sept. 24), UFC 136 (Oct. 8) and UFC 137 (Oct. 29). The results were even more lopsided than I thought they would be.
The three UFC events had nearly seven times more tickets sold than their WWE counterparts. In addition, the average ticket price paid by customers so far has been 75% higher for the three UFC events. UFC 135 alone has sold nearly five times as many tickets as the three WWE events combined.*
This begs the question: How did the ticket demand for UFC events quickly become so much bigger than for the WWE? I asked a few people who know a little bit more about the UFC, and mixed martial arts as a sport, for their opinions on the question.
Ryan from FightLinker.com: "WWE is doing something like 4-6 shows a week which must fatigue the market even for when tickets are for larger PPV events. And even then, your headliners for WWE shows are the same roster mixed up with maybe a bit more hype coming in for whatever storyline is currently playing out. With the UFC - and especially the next three events because they're stacked cards - you're getting once in a lifetime fights. You aren't liable to see Rampage vs. Jones again or Diaz vs. GSP, unless it happens again in 3-4 years and it's even a bigger deal."
Larry from ProMMARadio.com: "The unpredictability of the sport is another factor that yields a feeling that once a fight start[s] anything can happen at any moment. A fighter could literally be getting dominated for 14 minutes and get submitted or KO'd a second later. There is a 'Don't Blink' quality and purity to the sport that makes it very different from boxing and wrestling."
Zach from FightOpinion.com: "WWE and UFC attract completely separate audiences in some respects and in other respects the crossover between the two audiences generally is amongst older WWE fans who have some money to spend. If you had a Venn diagram, WWE's outlier would be kids, UFC's outlier would be men 24-35 with cash to burn, and then in between crossover would be older WWE fans and women.
Simply put, WWE has done a terrible job of promoting live house events and PPVs on their TV. Their TV audience is largely the same as it has been for the last five years but they have failed to convert the watching audience into paying customers. UFC with lower TV ratings has been able to convert more of their audience into paying customers."

The Hancock man charged with first-degree homicide involving the death of a University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point (UWSP) student will have a preliminary hearing at 8:30 a.m. Friday, Jan. 17, in Circuit Court Branch 3, with Judge Thomas Flugaur presiding.
Erik Olsen is suspected of dealing heroin to Jordan Peterson who died from a heroin overdose Nov. 17, according to the criminal complaint. Olsen refused to answer police officers' questions regarding the alleged sale.
Peterson was found in his Stevens Point residence by a roommate at about 4 p.m. Sunday Nov. 17, the complaint says.
After attempting to resuscitate Peterson, two of his roommates called the Stevens Point Police Department.
Police officers responded to the call and found Peterson on the floor of his bedroom with a spoon and used syringe on the floor next to him. On Peterson's left arm they found blood and what appeared to be needle marks tracking across his arm.
There were also traces of dried mucus on Peterson's face, indicating a possible foam cone, according to the complaint. A foam cone occurs around the nose and mouth when an individual overdoses on heroin.
Portage County Coroner Scott Rifleman estimated Peterson had died no more than12 hours before his initial examination. The body was transported to Madison where Dr. Robert Corliss conducted the autopsy and the complaint says the preliminary findings indicated heroin overdose as the cause of death.
All four of Peterson's roommates reported they were aware Peterson had a heroin addiction. Several witnesses confirmed that Peterson drove one to three times a week to purchase heroin from Olsen, the complaint says.
Peterson's roommates reported in the complaint that Peterson had overdosed on heroin two other times and did not seek medical attention either time.
The complaint said Peterson's girlfriend reported he went for a drive at approximately 1 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 17. He did not return until about 6 a.m. The complaint says authorities suspect that during that time he drove to Olsen's residence and purchased heroin.
Peterson was last heard from in a text message to his girlfriend at about 11 o'clock that same morning.
Police found text messages in Peterson's phone to and from Olsen sent on the morning of Nov. 17 discussing the sale of an unnamed drug, and the complaint says, and Olsen claimed the drug Peterson was attempting to purchase was marijuana but he had been unable to find any to sell him, according to the complaint.
Olsen has remained in jail since the time of his arrest Dec. 17 until he posts $100,000 bail.

December 21 2014 Latest news:
Gavin Caney
Monday, December 31, 2012
The King's Lynn Young Stars manager Dale Allitt has announced that British youngster Lewis Kerr will return to the Norfolk Arena next season — and he will be the new club captain.
22-year-old Kerr has been with the club since 2010, and has progressed from a reserve position up to the main body of the team over the past three seasons.
The former motocross star, who is set for a heat leader role next season, joins Tom Young, Tom Stokes and Shane Hazelden in the 2013 Young Stars team.
Kerr will return on a 6.67 average, and team manager Dale Allitt is delighted to have secured his services next season.
Allitt said: "We are very pleased to have signed Lewis up, a number of National League teams were interested in him and I think he could have gone to quite a few of them. It's great that he has shown loyalty to the club, and he recognises the faith and effort that we have put in him over the past 12 months."
"Lewis will come back to the team as captain next season, something that he did a couple of times towards the end of the season and I think it brought out the best in him. He is very motivated, and I feel he can do a good job. Lewis' enthusiasm can only benefit the team next season."

[My Profile] [My Settings] [
My Games
Welcome to my blog. Here, you may read all of my reviews. That will take a good deal of time, as I have penned quite a large number of them. I advise you to start now. And don't forget, constantly offer me praise concerning how great I am at doing what I do!
Something I've grown to dislike......
October 26, 2005 (07:31 PM)
Is 7th Saga.
I was playing it for a bit last night and realized that game makes me miserable. I'm up to the snowy continent now......meaning I'm 'bout two-thirds of the way through, so my stupid sense of pride won't let me abort my quest, but I am just hating this game right now.
The battle graphics are quite nice for the SNES. I love some of the music
dungeon, especially, even though it loops after a very brief time
. I absolutely can't stand the massive amount of fights it takes to level up and the necessity of doing so. It's like Enix set out to make the most tedious experience possible.
If you read Mariner's recently re-posted editorial on why he hates RPGs......well, to put it bluntly, for the most part, I disagree, as I love the genre. But this game makes me agree with him, at least in part
as does the original SNES Shin Megami Tensei and the MMBN series on the GBA
due to the pure tedium involved.
The thing that truly saddens me is that Enix was one of the best things to happen to Nintendo
possibly only second to Ralph Wiggum calling Chalmers "Super Nintendo Chalmers" one on Simpsons episode. The Dragon Warrior/Quest series is my FAVORITE old-school RPG series, bar none. Robotech and other games also kicked ass.
But 7th Saga takes the worst features of those games and brings them to the forefront. Great monster graphics don't disguise the fact that you're supposed to constantly battle the same creatures over and over again WITH death always a possibility, depending on what attacks get brought out..... In my opinion, this could be even worse than an RPG with too easy of battles. Here, you're not only bored, but you have to constantly save
or freeze state, if you emulate like me
because virtually any encounter could tear through you if they do their toughest attacks repeatedly while you constantly whiff on your attacks. It's both boring and frustrating.
The thing that pisses me off the most is that I vehemently disagree with Mariner's anti-RPG stance......but games like this justify every word against the genre he says, as this dialogue that never happened between us and only played out in my imagination proves.
ME: You're full of shit, dude. RPGs are the sheezy!!!!
MARINER: What about 7th Saga, bra?
ME: Well, it's suicide for me, again......
You see!!! How could you do this to me, Enix? And I used to think you were so awesome......
You're crazy

7th Saga was awesome. Truly hardcore, awesome graphics, great sense of exploration, a real feeling that you were part of a race for orbs. Awesome.
No.....you're crazy.....crazy like a syphillic fox

I played that game last night and FINALLY made it through the dungeon separating the first and second snow continent towns.
That whole ordeal was a microcosm of what I dislike about the game. First off, you have a LONG walk from the town to the cave entrance. A long walk full of encounters with brutal monsters, any of which can decimate you easily. Every encounter can be stressful as hell, which gets tiresome after a while
I like tough battles, but not when they ALL seem like that
And then you enter the cave. It's a small place with exactly ONE type of enemy. And it's a spider just like the ones in the cave leading to Patrof Castle
and another place or two
. It has a different name, more HP and strength and might have another attack or two, but it looks and fights the same. And you fight a pair of these spiders over and over again until you leave.
There is too much repetition in this game. It's just like with the mimics
. You start out fighting them, but you get to powerful for them. So, Enix inserts the Red Tricks......and then the King Tricks.....and you tend to fight a couple of these guys in every dungeon!!!! Many Dragon Warrior/Quest games had two kinds of "tricks"
Man-Eater Chests and Mimics
, but they were only used in select locations/dungeons. Here, they seem to be overkilled by their frequency.
Whenever I finish this game, it will get the 3-6
depending on if the final parts redeem or further destroy it
rating it deserves AND YOU WILL LIKE IT!!!!!!

Day 4 – Graduation!
I was fortunate enough this morning to be pulled from sweet dreams by a body slam from Sipe. Derek, what would I do without you? After that, we chowed down a healthy breakfast and for the first time the road trippers went different directions. I stayed home to hang with nephew Kaleb and nieces Ellie and Sophie. Faro and Sipe took to the road in search of an adventure in the Rockies. The boys said they had a great time hiking in the mountains. Safe? Smart? No. But it sounded like it was quite an experience.
Here at the Binger's household in Denver, me and the kiddos read books, played with Star Wars legos, watched some videos, and had a good afternoon.
Sometime before lunch I took a break from the festivities and went for a run. I've made better decisions with my life.
In the middle of the afternoon I went with Holly (sister-in-law) over to the school to watch Kaleb's last day of kindergarten. Today was water day, which meant that everyone in his class was having a water party to celebrate the end of classes. Kids were running through sprinklers all screams and giggles like something out of the 1950s. They also had a water balloon toss with partners – I doubt you'll find it too hard to believe that before long this game transformed into cutthroat battle with splashy explosions. Another activity I enjoyed watching was the bob for apples. The kids never really understood the core principles guiding this game. Each time they dunked their heads in they seemed surprised to find water rushing up their noses and soaking their hair. As a result, the bobber would plunk his head from the brisk water, spit into the bucket, then drop in for another dunk. Speaking as a very germ-aware individual, this really only started to bother me in the third and fourth rounds of the game when the countless spit-backs starting mixing with the snotty noses. Of course, the floating chunks of bitten but uneaten apple and the random blades of grass only added to the cesspool. I thought about trying for an apple at some point then I was like, "Heck, why don't I just take one of the half eaten cores from the garbage can, swirl it around a bit in the trash juice, and get the same effect." Water day, though ranking low on the sanitary scale, was a good day.
But the best was yet to come. Kindergarten graduation!
Two fidgety lines of white and royal squirmed down the aisles in pairs. Miniature cap and gowns filled with miniature people surrounding by a swelling sea of zealous parents firing pictures like trained paparazzi. I'm surprised the kids didn't go into epileptic shock.
The whole ceremony was pretty adorable. My favorite section was the Words of Wisdom from Kindergarten one where they revealed a kindergartner's take on popular maxims. Enjoy a few we captured for your entertainment:
(First, the phrase as it really goes. Then, the edited version.)
Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. *Those who live in glass houses shouldn't walk around naked.
Man cannot live by bread alone. *Man cannot live by bread if it's moldy.
Look before you leap. *Look before you sit down.
The early bird catches the worm. *The early bird catches the later bird.
Fight fire with fire. *Fight fire with a hose.
Never say never. *Never say how old your mom is.
I'm stunned by the frankness and simple logic applied by these kids. Most of us (including me) could use another dose of a kindergartner's common sense in our lives.
The post party went down in Red Robbin (by the way, the Whiskey River BBQ burger is a fine choice for anyone with a serious hunger looking to be quelled).
Tomorrow will find us in Utah at Zion National Park. Blogs and picture updates won't come for a couple of days…I hope the world can cope. What with the economic downturn, we realize people need something to look forward to, a bright spot in their day. Since for a couple days we won't be filling that role, let me suggest that you eat more ice cream or at least grab that bubble plastic packing stuff and give it a good twist: two sure-fire solutions for a quick pick-me-up.
Let me leave you tonight with some good wisdom, not from a kindergartner this time but the untouchable John Wooden. Sometimes people "get so caught up making a living they forget to make a life." This following list of seven things to do Coach Wooden received from his father:
1. Be true to yourself.
2. Help others.
3. Make each day your masterpiece.
4. Drink deeply from good books, especially the Bible.
5. Make friendship a fine art.
6. Build a shelter against a rainy day.
7. Pray for guidance and count and give thanks for your blessings every day.
Finally, commenting on living up to his dad's creed, Wooden said, "I am not in my eight decade and I would like to be able to tell you that I lived up to Dad's creed, but I am more like the fellow who said:
I am not what I ought to be,
Not what I want to be,
Not what I am going to be,
But I am thankful that
I am better than I used to be.
"It's important to keep trying to do what you think is right no matter how hard it is or how often you fail. You never stop trying. I'm still trying."
– JD and the boys

I use Capol 254 W to seal my Chocolate covered dragees. Then I polish them with Capol 425M . I have started production of Hard Sugar panned Dragees. I am not sure which Capol products will seal and polish my hard sugar coated Dragees. Any suggestion?

I want to keep my Dragee packets cool and enhance the shelf life of the Dragees by filling Nitrogen gas into the packets.
Will the Nitrogen Gas spoil the Dragees or enhance the shelflife of Dragees? My Dragees are Chocolate covered nuts and Chocolate covered cereals.
Any advise?
Thanks in advance.

I plan to buy one pannig machine. I am confused with the follwing aspects.
While buying a Panning machine which aspects we have to consider more? Is there any advantage if the Coating pan is of Copper? Or is steel coating pan as good as the Copper one? They say that only if there is resistance inside the pan the Dragee will become shiny, Otherwise I have to give the final coating of Gum Arabica to get the shine. Are these true?

Karen White
After playing hooky one day in the seventh grade to read Gone With the Wind, Karen White knew she wanted to be a writer—or become Scarlett O'Hara. In spite of these aspirations, Karen pursued a degree in business and graduated cum laude with a BS in Management from Tulane University. Ten years later, after leaving the business world, she fulfilled her dream of becoming a writer and wrote her first book. In the Shadow of the Moon was published in August, 2000. This book was nominated for the prestigious RITA award in 2001 in two separate categories. Her books have since been nominated for numerous national contests including another RITA, the Georgia Author of the Year Award and in 2008 won the National Readers' Choice Award for Learning to Breathe.
Karen currently writes what she refers to as 'grit lit'—southern women's fiction—and has recently expanded her horizons into writing a mystery series set in Charleston. Her tenth novel, The Lost Hours, will be released in trade paperback by New American Library, a division of Penguin Publishing Group, in April 2009.
Karen hails from a long line of Southerners but spent most of her growing up years in London, England and is a graduate of the American School in London. She currently lives near Atlanta, Georgia with her husband and two teenaged children, and a spoiled Havanese dog (who appears in several of her books), Quincy. When not writing, she spends her time reading, singing, playing piano, chauffeuring children and avoiding cooking.

This past summer I found tadpoles in my pool because the tarp fell in during the winter. I put them all in a tank and now they have become frogs, but I have no clue what types they are. These are the pictures. I have identified some as the grey tree frogs, but what are the ones with the brown up the middle of their backs?

Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp has expressed sympathy for the Club's captain Ledley King after he suffered yet another injury.
The 31-year-old has endured a terrible few seasons of injuries and he was forced to come off after only 30 minutes of the 2-2 draw at Newcastle on Sunday because of an abductor muscle problem.
King was replaced by French defender Sebastien Bassong and Redknapp has revealed he will be missing from the starting line-up for "a while".
"He's got an abductor strain," said Redknapp after the thrilling encounter at St James' Park. "He's a fantastic player but his knee blows up like a balloon every time he plays so he can't train.
"He plays on a Saturday and comes out the following Friday and has a jog for five minutes and then plays on the Saturday again.
"His body is nowhere near fit so he's always open to pulling muscles and getting strains. That's what happened at Newcastle.
"I wouldn't like to say how long he's going to be out for, but it will be a while I think."

Pubcon 2006 Wrap Up!
Summing up Pubcon in one blog post is like asking for a miracle. But I am going to do it for you quickly (hint the sarcasm), so take a DEEP breathe! First off, notable mention to Guy Kawasaki for an excellent kockoff keynote. Although, I had to give John Battelle the edge on this one, only because content was king for me! (I wonder if that will ever be over-used). Finally, the Danny Sullivan keynote was also great and it was awesome to see one of the most prominent figures in our industry.
Now, some of my favorite sessions overall had to be the sessions dedication the Viral & WOM Marketing, Press Releases and Feeds, Blogs, etc. These sessions were good because in my opinion the covered the more advanced topics and not so much high-level stuff. Now only that, but as usual some panels/forums had the usual Shameless promotion by organizations!!
Events, events, events…Google, Ask.com, Yahoo! and Ask.com all over again had an event! It seemed like we were non-stop with action after sessions and conferences!! To bad I didn't get to make it out to the Yahoo! party, that would have been fun!
Finally, I have to make some very notable mentions to people that I met or saw at the conference:
Dana Todd – One of most knowledgable, if not the most knowledgable person in the Search Marketing industry. She moderated the podcasting forum and did an amazing job as always! We had some great conversation at events and such!
John Battelle – For bringing up the topic of Search on the internet and that basically being the new medium driving software and the internet.
Rand Fishkin – Notable mention for a great presentation on Link Bait. Also, for the fact that he called out a guy and told him not to leave the room, classic momment!
Todd Malicoat and Greg Hartnett – Great presentations in regards to Feeds, Blogs, News and Social Search.
Sergio and Patrick Kajirian – I spent a good amount of time talking to these two guys before, during and after sessions. It was a blast getting to know them and they are definitely some very bright individuals.
Finally, I can't end this in any other way but to give Brett Tabke a ton of credit for putting together, yet again, an AMAZING conference. You make all of this happen and you give us all a place to learn more about the industry and meet more people within it! Good luck with the baby!!
I met a ton more people at the conference and loved every minute of the time I spent there! I am positive I have missed some people on the list and I am very sorry for doing so, but definitely know that if we met I want to keep in touch for sure and you should definitely feel free to contact me anytime!! That's all from Pubcon 2006, i'm already looking forward to 2007!!

In Alberta, Teachers' Convention is two days of legislated professional development. A board appointed by the Teachers' Association organizes each convention. Many presenters are teachers, who may receive a small honorarium. As many as 10 000 teachers attend each of several regional conventions in the province.
Join me for a day at Teachers' Convention
At 8:30 A.M., I peruse the convention book. Of the hundreds of session offerings, about six are even barely relevant to me as a mathematics teacher. The buffet of offerings includes such delicacies as "Food, Moods and Cravings," "Line Dance," "Aromatherapy," and "Developing Your Financial Plan for Retirement," each of which is designed to improve teachers' practice and not just their mathematics. The link to improved student performance is also no doubt clear.
Deciding what I like best about convention is difficult. Perhaps it is all the "sit and get" opportunities. I love it when an expert distills all her or his knowledge into a one-hour presentation, and I am sure that research shows that this model of adult learning is an effective one. I also appreciate the long-term nature of convention and knowing that I will be able to follow it up with another line-dancing session next year. Once per year is truly sufficient to facilitate continuous improvement.
Finding a seat in any session is easy, despite the thousands of teachers who are attending. Few mathematics sessions are ever full. I would hope that more than the 30 mathematics teachers that I have seen are at the convention today. As I leave the convention, I see a long line to get into a session; my mistake, that line is the one for a restaurant. I then see how teachers are spending their time at the convention.
Time for reflection
With all sarcasm aside, this professional development opportunity has one very positive aspect. I needed neither to plan for a substitute teacher nor to clean up behind one after I returned. However, I would have been more thankful if I had been able to talk with more mathematics teachers at the convention, where a breadth of perspective should have existed. I did see the mathematics teachers from a neighboring school, but we had neither the time nor the opportunity to meet and discuss the results of their action research projects. Such a discussion could have helped clarify thinking and planning for the next year. The convention time would have been an excellent time for my study group to tackle the questions that we always postpone until we have more time.
A place should exist for non–subject area workshops and seminars, but Teachers' Convention may not be the best place. When so many teachers are together for an extended period, we should offer the types of professional development that are most likely to provoke reflection and change practice. From experience and research, this venue is clearly not it. The last thing that we need is two more days to "sit and get." We should focus on collegial discussion, collaboration, problem solving, and ultimately student learning. The aromatherapist might be unhappy, but mathematics teachers would be much better off.

Women in Power

I am a 35 year old regular guy and I have a secret fantasy of submitting to women in the workplace.
When they wear skirts and silky pantyhose and ask me to lift something or file somethiing or send me away to do and errand i enjoy it. They will review my work with their legs crossed and send back my mistakes and i'm forced to correct them.
I often fantasize that men need to do what they tell them to do, and that we are there to serve and please them. any thoughts?
|Wed, 09-12-2012 - 2:07pm
Nigel, my first thought was that it is not clear from your post that this is a sexual fantasy. I don't feel it is a problem to post about a fantasy that is not sexual, most of what I post on this board I do not consider sexual. Second, it seems that many people fantasize about being subordinate and while it is a stereotype that men do this more than women, it seems to me from my readings on this board that it is more women than men. Also, it seems to me that the book "50 shades of Gray" is about a woman being dominated by a man and also that more women are interested in that book than men. I did not read it so I am not sure.

Thread: Names meaning Brave/Courage
July 5th, 2013 10:49 PM #1
Names meaning Brave/Courage
I've gone through pretty much all the lists I can looking for GIRLS names that mean brave/bravery or courage/couageous and there are not a whole lot that I love! Looking for something outside of the box, maybe a "girl version" of a boy name (like I found Evera is supposed to be the girl version on Everard which means "Brave One"
Possibly could go with a name that has a "brave" connotation too...like Amelia reminds me Amelia Earhart, but I don't love Amelia.
Thanks!!!No Reserves. No Retreats. No Regrets.

Only related names I could think of - Matilda/Maude meaning "strength in battle" or "battle ready", and Audrey/Etherdred means "noble strength". Clotilde "famous battle", and Isolde "ice battle" are related to battle, which evokes bravery...
Would you consider religious figures - i.e, Esther or Judith, who acted bravely? Or goddesses, like Artemis? Or perhaps mythological figures, like Atalanta?tea drinker + cat lover + ever-evolving baker+cook...positive realist who loves beautiful words, names, and images.
Feel free to ask me about Sanskrit-based names.

In the Bag
High Notes: Del Rey at the Mulberry dinner; the Del Rey bag.
The equation "It Girl + bag = It Bag" has certainly worked for Mulberry in the past: Two years after the release of the Alexa bag, fashionphiles are still toting it. Now the British label hopes to hit repeat, this time with the help of fashion's newest musical muse, Lana Del Rey. The Del Rey, a prim, structured carryall befitting the singer's old-Hollywood sensibility, made its debut at Mulberry's show during London Fashion Week in February and arrives in stores this month. "From the moment we saw Lana, we had a total girl crush on her," explains Mulberry creative director Emma Hill, who hosted a swank dinner party after the show at which Del Rey performed.

Band Together: Gorillaz for Converse shoe; the band as imagined by Hewlett.
As the graphic artist behind the virtual British band Gorillaz (who brought you the 2005 hit "Feel Good Inc"), Jamie Hewlett already has plenty of drawing practice. This spring, he shows off his design skills in a collaboration with Converse, reimagining the classic Chuck Taylor All Star in prints that boast the same bold aesthetic Hewlett uses to depict the musicians. As the Gorillaz lyric goes, "Don't stop, get it, get it."

This month Rachel Roy adds to her eclectic roster of cocreators with a capsule collection designed in conjunction with Brazilian singer Seu Jorge, for her lower-priced line, Rachel Rachel Roy. Look for the chic basics we've come to expect from Roy, with pops of Latin flavor: multicolored straw totes; bold, beach-ready sundresses; and glitzy gladiator sandals. "Brazilian women aren't afraid to embrace bold colors as well as their sexuality," Roy says.

GREENEVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- According to Greene County Sheriff Steve Burns, an active methamphetamine laboratory was discovered Saturday morning in Greene County, at the 30 block of Peppermint Lane, Greeneville, Tennessee.
Greene County Deputies discovered the lab while serving a warrant for aggravated robbery on James A. King at his residence. Greene County Emergency Medical Services (EMS) transported eight individuals from the residence to Laughlin Memorial Hospital in Greeneville for hazardous chemical-related decontamination.
Seven of the eight have been taken into custody while the eighth, James B. King, has been hospitalized for issues unrelated to the metamphetamine exposure.
General Sessions Judge Ken Bailey has ordered specific bond amounts for each of these individuals pending their initial court appearance on January 7.
Additional "Haley's Law" charges are also pending due to an eight-month old unborn child being present in the residence where the meth-lab was located.
Also, more than one thousand dollars has been seized from these individuals in relation to illegal drug activities, and the house has been quarantined.
Responding to this crime scene was Greene County Sheriff Steve Burns, Greene County Deputies, Third Judicial Drug Task Force Agents, the Tennessee Meth-Response Unit, the Greeneville/Greene County Haz-Mat Team, Greene County Emergency Medical Services (EMS), and both the Greeneville and Mosheim Fire Departments.

And Welcome To My Website!
Among my co-religionists and as an author, my name is M. Macha NightMare. The name was taken at a time when practitioners of alternative Pagan religions kept separate identities to avoid discrimination and/or harassment. I've been publicly known by that name for so long that many don't recognize me when I use my mundane name. About the name NightMare, capital "M" in the middle – the mare who rides through your dreams — it's my "nom de broom," just as legal as my mundane name. I'm well aware of how outrageous it is. Believe me, it's not easy to wear, but there it is. The name on my driver's license is the one given to me by my parents, Aline O'Brien. I answer to either.
Like most Witches of my vintage, I searched for years for a spirituality that made sense to me before I found the Craft. I encountered Witchcraft at the meeting point of three paths in my life, at the sacred trivia of the goddess Hekate. The first path was Second Wave Feminism: in Craft I had my first experience of a feminine image of the divine. Secondly, my concerns for the environment, before I'd ever heard the now commonly used word "ecology," were accorded a theological foundation in Craft. Third was an acknowledgement and respect for intuitive ways of knowing. These ingredients, spiced with the flavors of mythology and folklore, seeking knowledge of my personal ancestral heritage, and engaging constructively in society to help make a better world, combine into a brew that continues to nourish and inform my beliefs and praxis.
I live in the shadow of Mount Tamalpais (the Sleeping Lady) in Marin County, California. For the past decade-plus I've concentrated most of my efforts on two areas. One is the development of Cherry Hill Seminary to better prepare Pagans of all paths to serve their communities and to interface constructively with the public, and to explore our rich heritages with scholarly rigor. The other is the world of interfaith activities, where I make use of creative ritual whenever the opportunity arises.
As a Witch at Large, I'm happy and comfortable circling with all manner of Witches and other Pagans of various traditions. I invite you to read about my travels and experiences in my Broomstick Chronicles blog as well as the Broomstick Chronicles archives.
I have a daughter, Deirdre Blessing, and three stepchildren, all grown. I live with my beloved partner Corby and our two adorable and adored felines, Fernando and Oona.
Note from the Webmaster: We are finally getting Macha's new site online. New pages, updated information, and interesting changes will be coming fast and furious. So check back often!
