Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

LifeProof Announces frē for iPad Air
SAN DIEGO – March 5, 2014 - Sleek design and powerful protection unite as LifeProof® today announced availability of the new frē® for iPad Air case. LifeProof's award-winning waterproof, drop proof, dirt proof and snow proof features turn the latest iPad into a lean, mean, mobile-computing machine.
LifeProof frē allows iPad Air users to take a plunge underwater, shred the slopes or careen down a dusty trail without worry, creating a carefree tablet experience that doesn't interfere with the device's sound output or touch screen clarity. The LifeProof frē protects the iPad Air from submersions in water up to 6.6 ft. for up to one hour and drops from 4 ft. The frē passes military standards for shock and impact protection, all in a compact design that complements the device. A built-in screen protector helps keep the display scratch free while allowing total touch screen functionality.
"LifeProof is excited to offer frē for iPad Air," said LifeProof CEO Brian Thomas. "We are extremely pleased to provide iPad Air owners with one of the slimmest and most protective cases on the market. Our products not only provide reliable protection, but also meet our customers' needs for sleek, go-anywhere designs that keep up with their active lifestyles."
The LifeProof frē for iPad Air is available now in black and white. The waterproof iPad Air case includes a tethered headphone jack cover and is compatible with a variety of LifeProof accessories, including a folio screen cover that doubles as a stand, a floating LifeJacket and a mounting cradle. The accessory lineup is coming soon. LifeProof frē for iPad Air is available for $109.99 at www.lifeproof.com and select retailers.
LifeProof nüüd®, the first waterproof case without a built-in screen protector, will also be available soon. Proprietary screenless technology allows direct contact with the device screen for an uninhibited user experience.
For peace of mind, the LifeProof Total Water Protection Program is available as an option at the time of purchase of a LifeProof frē for iPad Air at www.lifeproof.com. This optional program offers repair or replacement should the registered user's device sustain water damage while properly installed in a LifeProof case. For full terms and conditions, visit www.lifeproof.com.

Restaurateur Rohini Dey wants to break free of Stockholm syndrome dining
By ROHINI DEY November 19, 2012 5:32PM
Rohini Dey
Updated: December 21, 2012 6:08AM
As a restaurateur (who loves restaurants), it strikes me as dismal that much of upscale dining has descended into a hostage situation, with us as willing victims: emotionally abused, displaying gratitude towards our captors for morsels of hospitality.
Glaring signs are:
- Tolerating absurd language: Hushed, grave, pompous tones within the hallowed four walls of the restaurant uttered by funereally somber servers. Or the opposite spectrum of the pendulum — "the opening spiel," where your server tackles you with a verbal zest that prevents any intervention. Once briefed on the specials, his favorites, the restaurant, the chef, suggested wines, tasting menus and the weather in Botswana, you're left to peruse your menu. Wait till the dishes come: Now the verbal tap really gushes with minutiae on every swirl, drizzle and drop on the plate. Crowned with the proverbially bright "Enjoy!" at every possible juncture.
- Participating in the death-by-wine ceremony: Instantly depressing is being handed a tome on wines. Pretending to read through the multitude of musty choices that the restaurant has chosen, feigning being suitably impressed, making "knowledgeable" remarks. Going through the motions of swilling, tasting, inhaling. Acquiescing on the splendid wine choice made, all while feeling and looking — in reality — ludicrous. Only made worse by fielding an overly solicitous (a.k.a. aggressive) sommelier who makes your choice seem like a cheap compromise, unless you've singlehandedly surpassed his bottle-sales target for the evening.
- Fueling the "you may kiss the chef's napkin ring" syndrome (credit: Frank Bruni, former New York Times food critic): Anything demanding obeisance to the "chef," or how "chef" prefers you dine from the left to the right or top to bottom, while balancing perfect mini tomatoes on your nose. No, you may not request this be well done, or that be spiced more; "chef" recommends it be just so. When did we lose sight of the diner, the ultimate consumer — the guest — in favor of the chef? And at the end of the day — it's a kitchen, it's food, it's a job! Most dishes are not insurmountably difficult to cook and replicate. Despite many exceptional chefs, being an astronaut or doctor arguably has always been technically and intellectually more demanding. Plus, the higher the celebrity level, odds are "chef" is not in the kitchen, because chef is busy keeping up with television appearances, book deals, and multiple outposts. It's the kitchen team working day in day out. So why do we surrender to the chef-as-God saga?
- Approving the "green halo" on restaurant menus: Yes, I get it that every dish on the menu has been sourced from the neighbor's garden, who sings to his plants and livestock on a daily basis while sustaining them on pure love. God forbid pesticide, fertilizer, steroids, antibiotics, genetic modification, air or sunlight enter this equation (anything that fueled the green revolution or large-scale farming globally, enabling billions to escape starvation). I'm all for knowing the ingredients of foods I buy and making my own consumption choices. I also think local, sustainable and organic sourcing is fantastic, tastes great and absolutely belongs in fine dining. BUT, let's be very clear — it's pricey, not much of it is feasible on a large-scale basis and it's an indulgence of the affluent. Trade and division of labor on a global level would cease if we all went local — the ultimate protectionism. What would have happened if Columbus and Amerigo Vespucci thought local? Or if the Silk Route ended at your neighbor's garden? So, can we remove the smug excruciatingly detailed prefix specifying which farm and hill every ingredient originated on the menu?
- Swallowing sanctimonious service: From vapid or snotty hostesses who are doing you a favor by allowing you entry and a table in exile when the room is clearly empty, to managers who flit from table to table inquiring meaninglessly "how is everything?" to the server who did not get you a drink within 10 minutes (for me, that's when dining out begins) and who prolongs "water" service (still, sparkling or tap?) instead.
I'm not winning fans in my industry with my rants above. And my own restaurants are guilty of many of these charges, despite my valiant attempts to erase them. But, I still hope to triumph some day.
Until then, happy captive dining … and enjoy!!

Boston Children's Hospital's Blood Donor Center is an independent collection facility serving the needs of pediatric patients in the Longwood Medical Area. Established in 1958, primarily to provide fresh blood for the new field of open-heart surgery, they now supply virtually all of the blood and blood products used at Boston Children's.
Several different parts of the blood can be transfused.
Red blood cells are the most common
All blood donors are volunteers.
Before a blood transfusion, donor blood is carefully tested and cross-matched with recipient blood to make sure it is compatible.

What is a blood transfusion?
A blood transfusion is the process of transferring blood, or any of its parts, from one person to another.
What is blood made of?
Blood is made of fluid called plasma and three types of blood cells: red cells, white cells and platelets. Each part of blood has a special function and can individually transfused.
Why would a child need a blood transfusion?
There are many reasons why a child may require a blood transfusion, such as:
sudden loss of blood
low hemoglobin (part of red blood cells that helps them carry oxygen from the lungs to all the parts of the body) before, during or after surgery
severe heart or lung disease
bone marrow failure
moderate to severe anemia
How is a blood transfusion performed?
Before a child receives a blood transfusion, the blood is carefully tested and cross-matched with his own blood to make sure it is compatible. It is then given through a needle or catheter (a thin, flexible tube) placed in the vein. The child's temperature, blood pressure and heart rate will be monitored through the procedure. The full process usually takes a few hours to complete. Most blood transfusions are performed without any problems.
What are the side effects of blood transfusion?
Blood transfusion may cause mild side effects, such as:
These side effects can usually be treated with medication, should a child require additional transfusions.
Serious side effects from blood transfusions are rare. When they do occur, the most common is serum hepatitis, an infection of the liver. Although it is highly unlikely, a transfusion with the wrong type of blood can result in death.
Where does the blood used in a transfusion come from?
Is the blood used for blood transfusions safe?
Donated blood is carefully tested for hepatitis (liver disease) and syphilis (bacterial disease), as well as two viruses that affect the immune system, including HIV. These tests decrease the chances of infection caused by blood transfusions.

Since 1976, CRA has grown from a small, regional engineering company, to one of the world´s most sought after, multidisciplinary engineering and consulting firms. Starting with the merger in 1976 of Frank A. Rovers & Associates and Conestoga Engineering, and less than 10 employees, CRA has grown to become a Family of Companies with 3000 employees in over 100 offices. In the late 1970s, CRA´s reputation for environmental work developed from its investigation, remedial design, and oversight of the Love Canal cleanup in Niagara Falls, New York. This project was the primary impetus for what is now the Superfund program in the United States and gave CRA international recognition in the environmental field. Since then, completed projects number in the thousands. Technical excellence and a penchant for capitalizing on opportunity account for much of CRA´s growth in the early years. Our civil engineering/municipal infrastructure roots lie in providing traditional full service engineering design and construction oversight services to several municipalities commencing in the 1970s. Many of these early clients remain with us, which is a strong testament to our quality services. Corporate responsibility, corporate accountability, technical excellence and a commitment to consistent, superior services is a philosophy that has already proven crucial to CRA´s outstanding, worldwide reputation...One which will enable the corporation to manage a future of continued growth and the provision of expert services to its clients.

Christian Meditation is a form of silent, contemplative prayer that uses a prayer-word, which is rooted in the gospel and the letters of St. Paul, and originated with the early desert fathers of the fourth century. A Benedictine monk, John Main, rediscovered this ancient prayer tradition of silence and listening. It is offered now to contemporary men and women, and practiced worldwide by Christians of many denominations. Diet is a large part of the meditation experience and eating lots of greens can help you experience. Better still is to use some of the recipes at JuiceDietRecipes.com to physically prepare yourself for meditation. To fully enjoy this make sure to have your children be with a babysitter or in daycare, when you are fully relaxed you can get a more spiritual connection.

|Spring Break Camp
|Spring Break Camp
Wild About Animals! Spring Break Camp.
Mon-Fri 9am-4pm, Ages 5-8, March 17th-21st
Registration is now open! Remember spots are limited!
Monday - Small Mammals; Tuesday - Birds; Wednesday - Fish ; Thursday - Reptiles; Friday - Campers choice!
During Wild About Animals, we will learn all about how we take care of the animals at Pet World everyday; How to handle and hold various animals; What they eat and how to feed them; As well as getting hands on experiences with the various animals at Pet World and being a part of their everyday care with Pet World employees.
During camp we learn about prey and predator animals as well as pets vs. wild animals. Every day is themed, learning about Small Mammals on Monday, Birds on Tuesday, Fish on Wednesday, Reptiles on Thursday and finishing off the week with "Camper's choice" on Friday, when the kids will choose the animals for the day. Each day we'll have periods of "free time" when campers interact with the animal of their choice. Some choose these times to read a book on the animals they're most interested in, hold birds, interact with the other campers or ask us as many questions they can think of about their favorite animal! This camp is a lot like our summer camp, Animal Camp, only without the field trips. Instead we spend our time at Pet World since it's still typically cold over spring break in Kansas!
Pet World will provide snacks and drinks throughout the day, but, with the exception of Friday, ask the kids bring a sack lunch. Friday lunch is covered in the registration cost and we'll be walking across the parking lot for pizza at Wheat State.
Registration is $160/per child ($155 for any additional siblings). Limited Spots Available

Located in the city of Grand Rapids, Michigan, the Ottawa Hills Neighborhood is bounded by Franklin Street on the north, Grand Rapids city limits on the east (approximately Cadillac Drive), Hall Street on the south, and Giddings Avenue on the west.
Ottawa Hills was plotted out as a residential area in the early 1900s on what was then the Grand Rapids Golf Club. The first houses were built in 1922 and homes continued to be constructed until the 1950s. The winding roads are said to follow the paths of the former fairways.
The Ottawa Hills Neighborhood Association will be holding its 20th Annual Garden Tour on Saturday, June 29 from 9:00 am until 1:00 pm. There will once again be a great line-up of neighborhood gardens for the community to enjoy. This self-guided walking tour through the neighborhood is free and open to the general public. The Ottawa Hills neighborhood is one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in the city, with tree lined streets, historic homes, and friendly neighbors.
The Neighborhood Email List and Neighborhood Web Site are solely for the purpose of conducting Ottawa Hills Neighborhood (referred also as the "Neighborhood") business. Some job/volunteer responsibilities of the Neighborhood require access to the Internet and the use of requisite software.
Fire Safety Tips:
Have your furnace and fireplace checked to ensure proper operation. Make any repairs before the cold weather sets in. Also remember to keep stored items at least 3 feet from all heat producing appliances.
If you have a natural Christmas tree make sure you keep it watered. The needles should not fall off when you brush your fingers along the branches.

Father and Son Crack Chemistry of Quasicrystals
For three decades, chemists and physicists have struggled to understand the structure of quasicrystals, particular crystals with a patterned but non-periodic structure formed by its elements. Stockholm University professor Sven Hovmöller worked for ten years on the problem without satisfying results. While others on his team moved on to other projects, Hovmöller continued his frustrating research until one day it came upon him to recruit his ten-year-old son, Linus, to help him with his work.
The Dark Knight Falls Really Fast

A new paper, entitled "Trajectory of a falling Batman," describes what would happen if Batman were to try this maneuver in real life.
According to the study, Batman would only be able to slow his velocity to somewhere...

It is called "Game Over" and comes from Italian design firm DOKC LAB. These chairs are put together from five separate interlocking pieces and it is all held together without any screws, glue or nails. Pure geek joy holds everything together.
I just hope that this awesome design becomes a reality, because I can't get enough Invaders. I'm betting the chair would cost you more than a working Space Invaders arcade cabinet, but I think it would be worth it.

Various Nice Up the Dance: Two Worlds Clash
- Words: Matt Fisher
- Label: Soul Jazz
Revisiting the Jamaican music diaspora in novel ways has become Soul Jazz's stock in trade, and they do it very well. This collection spotlights the crossover between hip-hop and dancehall, Jamaica and the US. Cuts like Tenor Saw's classic "Ring the Alarm" transformed to a hip-hop beat, Cutty Ranks's slashing gangsta-style lyrical attacks, Ms. Thing's hip-hop soul backing up a dancehall flow, and J Live riding an Augustus Pablo melodica harmony give you an idea of what's up here. But this is more than a bunch of jacked beats; it's a reflection of a symbiotic relationship, pointing out how each culture periodically energizes and inspires the other.

Sept 30 - USDAs Farm Service Agency has released its annual publication regarding foreign investors holdings of United States agricultural land. The publication contains statistics that are current through Dec. 31, 2011.
The report, titled Foreign Holdings of U.S. Agricultural Land Through December 31, 2011, is now available on the FSA website at www.fsa.usda.gov/FSA/webapp?area=home&subject=ecpa&topic=afa.
The data, gathered through Dec. 31, 2011, indicate that foreign investors hold an interest in 25,715,588 acres of U.S. agricultural land, which is approximately 2 percent of all privately held U.S. agricultural land, and 1 percent of all land in the U.S. The total foreign-held U.S. agricultural acres as of the last report, dated Dec. 31, 2010, were 24,224,807, resulting in an increase of 1,490,781 acres.
The annual publication includes a wide variety of both annual and cumulative activity reports. Annual Activity Reports include the following:
Just a few of the Cumulative Activity Reports within the publication are:
The publications findings are based on reports submitted to FSA in compliance with the Agricultural Foreign Investment Disclosure Act of 1978. The law was created to establish a nationwide system for collecting information pertaining to foreign ownership in U.S. agricultural land. Foreign investors who buy, sell or hold an interest (other than a security interest) in U.S. agricultural land are required to report such holdings and transactions to the Secretary of Agriculture on AFIDA Report Form FSA-153. The data gleaned from these reports is used in the preparation of an annual report to Congress.

Boy alerts family to house fire early Thursday morning
Updated On: Dec 26 2013 09:03:11 AM CST
Kansas City, Kan., firefighters said a young boy alerted a sleeping family to a fire in a home near 42nd Street and Douglas Avenue early Thursday morning.
Firefighters were called to the neighborhood about 4 a.m.
Investigators said the 6-year-old boy was sleeping on the couch and awoke to the house filling with smoke and alerted the family.
Deputy Fire Chief Craig Duke said the homeowners had a problem with their cellphones. He said the wife ran barefoot up the street to a neighbor's home to call for help.
Duke also said that the homeowners had an alarm system, but that the family was not alerted by the company that monitors the system.
No one was hurt.
The family had two dogs; one died in the fire.
The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.

After 30 minutes of playing this game, I was ready to pop it back in the mail. This game throws you into the fire immediately, kicks your butt from the first race, and makes it difficult to enjoy playing. I'm an adult, and I was discouraged with the level of difficulty.

National Black HIV and AIDS Awareness Day, February 7th, 2013
"Our Ancestors Fought So That We Might Be Free-Even From HIV"
February 7, 2013 marks the 13th year for National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, an HIV testing and treatment community mobilization initiative targeted at Blacks in the United States and across the Diaspora.
There are four specific focal points: education, testing, involvement, and treatment.
*Educationally, the focus is to get Blacks educated about the basics of HIV/AIDS in their local communities.
*Testing is at the core of this initiative, as it is hoped that Blacks will mark February 7 of every year as their annual or bi-annual day to get tested for HIV. This is vital for those who are sexually active and those at high risk of contracting HIV.
*When it comes to community and organization leadership, getting Blacks involved to serve is another key focus. We need Black people from all walks of life, economic classes, literacy levels, shades and tones as well as communities (large and small) to get connected to the work happening on the ground in their local areas.
*And lastly, for those living with HIV or newly testing positive for the virus, getting them connected to treatment and care services becomes paramount.
We cannot lead Black people towards HIV/AIDS education, prevention, testing, leadership or treatment unless you love them. And, we can't save Black people from an epidemic unless we serve Black people.

At House public safety hearing, gun accidentally dropped
CONCORD - The House Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee lived up to its name today when Rep. Kyle Tasker, R- Nottingham, accidentally dropped his gun on the floor.
The gun did not discharge in the committee room, which was packed for a hearing and vote on an amendment to a controversial abortion bill, House Bill 1659.
Tasker said he had come from donating blood at a Red Cross bloodmobile at the State House.
"I did not realize the retention device on my shoulder holder was not properly fastened. When I sat down, (the gun) fell to my feet," Tasker said. "If it wasn't for the clunk, I don't know that anyone would have noticed."
Tasker reportedly told other onlookers that he was a little lightheaded from giving blood.
Guns have been allowed at the State House since last January, when the Legislature passed a law allowing the carrying of firearms at the complex.
Tasker, a young freshman member of the House, said the gun, an M911 pistol, was loaded but is "drop safe," requiring the trigger to be pulled to release a round.
As for any takeaway from the incident, Tasker said: "If you are going to wear a shoulder holster, gravity is not your friend."

Angel Tree
The challenges of a prison sentence don't stop at the gate. With a heart of compassion and training from Prison Fellowship, you can help ex-prisoners struggling to return to the community as productive citizens, and you can offer hope to families coping with a loved one's incarceration.
Angel Tree Coordinator
When parents go to prison, their children also partake of their punishment, often struggling with poverty, shame, anger, abandonment, and loneliness. Through thousands of churches, Prison Fellowship's Angel Tree program delivers Christmas gifts, the Gospel, and a personal message of love to children on behalf of the Mom or Dad behind bars.
Angel Tree Church Coordinators determine how many children a congregation will serve, receive a list of local children to be served, and recruit volunteers to purchase and deliver gifts.
Sign-up to become an Angel Tree Church Coordinator!
Angel Tree Area Coordinator builds local relationships with churches, prison chaplains, and families. The coordinator helps to orchestrate the completion of service to local Angel Tree children at Christmas, and also casts a vision for Angel Tree throughout the year. The coordinator's opportunities for involvement may include some or all of the following: recruiting and retaining churches to participate in Angel Tree, giving Angel Tree presentations and trainings, coordinating in-prison events to help inmates sign their children up for the Angel Tree program, or assisting with the assignment of children and data cleanup using the Angel Tree database.
Sign-up to become an Angel Tree Area Coordinator!
Angel Tree in-prison sign-up
Experience the Angel Tree program from the early stages of implementation when a parent completes the participation form by assisting with an In-Prison Sign-Up (IPSU) event. An IPSU event not only lightens the chaplain's load but gives prisoners the opportunity to receive help in completing their forms, access to volunteers who are able to answer questions, and an opportunity for prayer and one-to-one ministry with volunteers. The coordinator helps to coordinate the event and volunteers and ensures the prisoner applications are submitted by the deadline.

Attorney: Source Interlink Avoided ŌĆśThousandsŌĆÖ of Layoffs with Restraining Order
A look at the transcript from February 13 court appearance.
UPDATE: Time Inc., Source Interlink Settle
The U.S. District Court in the Southern District of New York might have saved thousands of jobs when it granted embattled magazine publisher and wholesaler Source Interlink a temporary restraining order in its anti-trust lawsuit against several major magazine publishers and rival wholesalersŌĆöat least for now.
ŌĆ£If things continue the way they are going, Source will not be able to make its payroll this Friday,ŌĆØ Source attorney Marc E. Kaskowitz argued during the companyŌĆÖs February 13 court appearance seeking the order. ŌĆ£The result of that, your Honor, will be that the company will have no choice but to lay off thousands of employees.ŌĆØ
The order, which was granted by the court, prohibits publishers and national distributors from denying shipments to SourceŌĆÖs magazine distribution business. Source alleges that the defendants ŌĆöincluding publishers Time Inc. and HachetteŌĆöŌĆ£conspiredŌĆØ to force the company to sell its distribution business at a steep discount to rivals Hudson News and News Group.
The suit follows SourceŌĆÖs and fellow wholesaler Anderson NewsŌĆÖ separate 7-cents-per-copy price hikesŌĆöwhich publishers largely balked at and refused to pay.
In what he described as a ŌĆ£gesture of goodwill,ŌĆØ Kaskowitz said Source on February 2 made several ŌĆ£advance paymentsŌĆØ (totaling about $85 million) to national distributors after the defendantsŌĆöexcept Time WarnerŌĆöindicated they would continue to supply magazines to Source and would work toward an agreement.
ŌĆ£Literally within minutes of the payments that Source made, these good faith advance payments, the publishers and the national distributors sent letters to Source reneging on the assurances that they had given to Source during the previous two to three days and informing Source that they would no longer supply Source with magazines,ŌĆØ Kaskowitz said.
The temporary restraining order is valid until at least the preliminary injunction hearing, which is scheduled for February 23.
Did Source deserve the order? Click here to read the full transcript, via Incisive MediaŌĆÖs AM Law Daily.

Get Familiar: thePeople
In the rapidly evolving world of electronic music, it's all but impossible to keep track of every new artist, label, party, and genre. At the same time, certain names will inevitably pop up again and again at the XLR8R office, some of which we've only given passing mention to on the site. In an effort to get our readers up to speed with some of the things—both new and old—that we've been digging lately, we recently launched a new feature series called 'Get Familiar,' which aims to shine a spotlight on subjects we think are worthy of a little more attention.
For all intents and purposes, thePeople is a house music party—one that focuses on tracks rooted in African and Latin rhythms as well as the more soulful and jazz-informed ends of the genre. Helmed by a DJ collective of sorts, thePeople is centered around a monthly event that began in Oakland, California in the fall of 2007, and in its current form, takes place on the fourth Saturday of the month at The New Parish. "When we started, you could not build big parties in Oakland off house music," resident selector and thePeople co-founder Cecil Carthen (who DJs and produces simply under the name Cecil) says of the party's beginnings. "Now, a lot of those people who were so-so on the music when we first started are like, 'lt's all about the music,'" he adds. "They're diehards." Read more »

Instead of your standard pretty Rolex or Bulova ( which are likely to cost you must more), buy your wilderness man a watch and compass all in one. It's also been tested at up to 100m for water resistance, which means this watch can withstand a rainy hike or a river crossing.
Grand Maitre Santuko Knife with Granton Edge
Used for chopping, dicing, and mincing, this knife is perfect for all general use in your man's kitchen. The Granton Edge prevents food from sticking to the blade so you're no constantly removing your diced food before you can continue your strokes.
Chillion Trifold Wallet
This elegant and masculine wallet is trifold in design, genuine leather, and has six card slots.
EvoGrip 101 Swiss Army Knife
This is a sharp looking knife (no pun intended) that is virtually weightless at 4.4 onces and comes complete with scissors, pliers, and a wine keys (for when the shit really hits the fan in the wilderness and you've gotta apply your alcohol as anesthetic or just get rip-roaring drunk).
Expensive but overly impressive alternative: The Giant

Bambi Cuts and Runs From CriticismPosted by: in Democrat Arses, Hypocrites, Lefty America-Haters, Politics, Race Baiting Assholes, Socialist Swine, Spineless Fucks
Black Racist Jesus, true to his foreign policy ideals, has cut and run and resigned from Rev. "U.S. of KKK America" Wright's den of racism and communism.
Better get that bus' suspension checked, a lot of people getting thrown under it lately.
I guess the hypocrisy of Farakhan Phelching Pfleger was finally too much. Or, more accurately, the publicity it drew. The asshole first criticizes Her Cankledness for a feeling of entitlement to the Presidency, due to her identity, and then declares Bambi deserved it because of his identity.
20 years too late, but hey, he is the Obamamessiah and beyond all criticism, after all.
