of course I was what I hate Crannberries
Of course I have to be gravy…
I hate gravy.
My answer is Stuffing/Dressing. My moms was Vegtibuls
Boom! Desserts!!
I would be a turkey because of the way I am
Some dressing or cranberry sauce
I love it
If you were a Thanksgiving food, what would you be? Find out!
See photos from Winterfest, an annual event that brings together 3,000 Venturers and Explorers in Gatlinburg, Tennessee.
When done right, an igloo can keep you nice and cozy – even on the coldest winter night.
What an awesome idea. Will definitely present this to our group.Everything looks so good!
Attended one of Troop 1015's Turkey Feeds and it was fantastic.Some of the best stuffing ever. We ate in the pouring rain, but the food was great.
This sounds wonderful! Need to try this with our scouts.
1015! Not just a number, it's a proof.. The greatest troop there ever was and will be!
Every November, Troop 1015 invites almost everyone they know to attend their Turkey Feed. Here are the recipes they use to feed 100 people.

Thanks Boy's Life
You send this to 6-7-8 year olds. Monsters is the last thing they need to read about. He won't touch the magazine now. He says "I thought the book was about Scouting, not monsters."
Come on guys!
I actually have a phobia of moths. The mothman would be my worst nightmare!!!
that jersey devil thing realy CREEPS ME OUT!!!!! but it looks fake.
some type of thing has to be true about them…
Realistic mothman: fake but looks terrifying Bigfoot: probraly a guy in a costume or ape thunderbird fossil: just an eagle. Champ and sea serpent: I think it's driftwood or whales jersey devil: guy in costume PLEASE THE MOTHMAN IS SUPER TERRIFYING AND ITS GONNA KEEP ME AWAKE ALL NIGHT!
Really Cool!
The mothman is freaky I searched these the montauk monster is cool.
Mothman is so cool and so creepy at the same time.
I wish they would show a picture of the thunder bird. not some drawing.
me to but the other ones are kindove scary like the moth man and big foot ;-(:-) :-o
i think they are creepy!
Only the realistic mothman is creepy!
Champ is my favorite….too cool!
They are all my favorite.
my favorite cryptid (who is not listed) is the kraken!
Personally, I believe that mothman is real, as most of these are, in my opinion.
I think all of these are R-E-A-L. You should too if you know whats good for you.
mothman drawing: ifo realistic mothman: just plain creepy
I have done much native american and american folklore research before this came out, and these legends are very fun to learn about. Now, some are to good to be true like Moth man, but there are good explanations. Like, where did the native Americans get there gods? Plus there are true document on giant eagles that died out a long time ago, there could have been survivors, like Champ as a plesiosaurus. Something to think about!
One interesting thing about Native Americans is that whenever they drew pictures of animals, they would divide them into two groups, one group with only real, physical animals, and one with only spiritual (mythical) creatures. But the Native Americans also believed in Bigfoot, and when they would draw pictures of Bigfoot, they would always put them in the group with real animals.
that mothman picture is so fake
i know!
Not fake, creepy
I would really like to see more talk about cryptids. I would also like more pictures on them. This is the one thing in a LONG time that got me on boyslife.org. Reply if you agree!
i agree
Look I think the Montauk Monster is real and the goverment is covering it up I mean HELLO it says A LOT OF PEOPLE SAW IT AND THAT THE DEAD BODY WENT MISSING!!
I DEFIANTLY believe so too!
This stuff is awesome! I actually saw a dragon once! How come THOSE weren't in there?
Plus, they're not monsters, they're mythical creatures. I'm guessing that having 'monster' as a title would be a little harsh.
Where the heck did you see a dragon?
I think I heard Bigfoot once
I thank that your monsters are cool.
Awesome very good job. Love Othman LOL.
those monsters are so cool i wish i could see one in person!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Me 2!!
Me Tooo!
Not me!
mothman has a story. a scary story. it is scary on lost tapes
Ok, that moth man thing, it's an old legend. Look it up, you might find the biggest HOAX and worst PHOTOSHOP you've ever seen.
I know right
Love them.
i wish they would show a real picture of the montauk monster, that would be cool.
I have heard of all of these except Montauk Monster, Jersey Devil and champ. my favorite is chupacabra
Thunder bird is so awesome and its wings make lightning storms with a flap of its wings.In other words it's OP.

About midway into Idaho's final spring scrimmage, Paull Wulff and his family sat down just below the press box at the Kibbie Dome. He was in Moscow to take in some football, and near the end he talked with the S-R about his last few months.
Read on.
Here's our short story after talking with Wulff. We have a few extra notes below.
MOSCOW, Idaho – Since he was fired at Washington State on Nov. 29, Paul Wulff has savored the extra time with his family. But he's also racked up serious frequent-flyer miles.
Wulff has visited NFL teams, gone to the NFL combine and Senior Bowl and watched spring practices at three Pac-12 schools and programs in the Southeast. All the traveling was an attempt to soak in as much football knowledge as possible.
Friday night, Wulff spoke to The Spokesman-Review while watching Idaho's final spring scrimmage at the Kibbie Dome. He and his wife, Sherry, decided to bring their two sons to Moscow after he spoke with former WSU assistant and current UI receivers coach Mike Levenseller earlier in the day.
The former WSU and Eastern Washington football coach said the time off has given him a chance to be a spectator on the sidelines for the first time since he entered coaching.
"I've actually never had this opportunity to go to this many places and it's been really helpful just to see different things," said Wulff, who still lives in Pullman. "So I've probably learned more in the last month than I could have in a lot of other situations."
Wulff said he's open to another head coaching job. Yet he's also intrigued by having a "group of players (to coach) than manage the whole team," he said.
"Not that I'm not open to a head job," he said. "I would be. But this time I want to make sure the situation's healthy if I can have that choice and go to a good, positive situation."

$250 million Husky Stadium overhaul nearly completeon July 15, 2013 @ 1:52 pm (Updated: 3:51 pm - 7/15/13 )
More Photos
See all photos
The stadium has been getting a complete overhaul since construction crews began the transformation in November, 2011.
The $250 million renovation includes removing the track, lowering the field and shifting it north about seven feet, optimizing sight lines, and moving the stands closer to the action.
The remodel also features the additions of luxury suites, patio suites, and a new Club Husky. Fans will also enjoy new permanent seats in the east end zone.
When it comes to comfort, seats in the 92-year-old stadium will have more leg room and aisles will be wider. The scoreboard will feature a bigger video screen. There will also be 20 percent more bathroom stalls, with women getting more than men.
The renovation also includes a new football operations building with locker rooms, weight rooms, and coaches offices integrated into the west end zone.
The field was recently installed, while construction continues on a new walkway over Montlake Boulevard that connects campus. The scoreboard and video screen are due to be installed soon, and landscaping and other finish work is all slated to be completed before the opening.
The newly renovated stadium opens Aug. 31 when the University of Washington hosts Boise State.

The History of (Destroying) New York City
I apologize for the second post in a row about films, but I had to ask the question, when did destroying New York become hot again?
This Friday is the opening of I Am Legend, an adaptation of Richard Matheson's classic thriller about the last non-zombiefied human being alive. In this case, he resides in New York City, the population wiped out by a virus. Nice to know that the last representative of the human race is charming, witty, and a former rapper.
If that's not enough doomsday for you, JJ Abrams brings us Cloverfield next month, about a sea monster 'the size of a skyscraper' ravaging New York. I almost breathed a sigh of relief when I found out that M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening releasing next spring, takes out Philadelphia.
Tokyo may be the one with the most movie monsters attacking it in film history, but New York has taken it pretty hard from a variety of fictional sources. Here's the top ten (I left out films that actually destroy the whole earth):
1. King Kong (1933)
Sure, they destroy more in a run-of-the-mill Fantastic Four or Spider-man movie these days than ole Kong does here, but the sheer novelty at the time of urban carnage was enough to petrify audiences. His attack on the elevated train is still terrifying. Thank God he merely climbs the Empire State Building.
2. Beast From 20,000 Fathoms (1953)
Atomicly-woken prehistoric beastie with germ-infested blood plays tourist in Manhattan, eventually finding a suitable lodging at a roller-coaster in Coney Island. The movie is flat and plotless, but love that Ray Harryhousen stop-motion monster. If it wasn't so destructive, the monster might be a little lovable.
3. Planet of the Apes (1968)
By placing it on this list, I suppose I've spoiled the ending for you.
4. Escape From New York (1981)
John Carpenter takes a different approach to the Manhattan destruction theme -- turning it into a gigantic prison -- and along the way, makes a potent comment about New York in the late 70s.
5. Ghostbusters (1984)
New York City has seen its share of monsters. From the skies, we've had Q: the Winged Serpent. From below, C.H.U.D. And in our elevators, those damned Gremlins! Even Godzilla's taken a snack by the Flatiron Building, years before the opening of the Shake Shack. But no big baddie comes closer to the hearts of New Yorkers than the sugary goodness of this sweet ectoplasmic ogre, successfully dispatched by Dan Ackroyd and Bill Murray.
6.Independence Day (1996)
Destroying New York City really came into its own cinematically in the 90s. The unease at seeing our fair city blown to smithereens by alien blasts is offset by the cries of joy of future architects and city planners at the alien's first target -- the Pan Am/Met Life building. It is sort of awful seeing Park Avenue South wiped away by flames. Some great restaurants, gone in a flash!
7. The Siege (1998)
Technically the only movie on the list that really 'could' happen, however the filmmakers glee is killing off mass groups of New Yorkers is just plain sadistic. The bombing of a Broadway theater -- look, that rich woman is missing her arm! -- is of particular poor taste. Maybe it would have been easier to swallow had the movie been actually, you know, good.
8. AI: Artificial Intelligence (2001)
Steven Spielberg creates some graceful carnage -- waterfalls and flocks of birds among toppled buildings -- and includes a vision of a destroyed Twin Towers in a rather unfortunate year of release. Don't get too depressed however; his recollection of the city is hardly too accurate. One of the buildings is literally just a Apple computer subwoofer dressed up to look like a building.
9. Deep Impact (1998) and Day After Tomorrow(2004)
These two films are pretty abysmal, but the creative ways in which they treat New York City like children's toys in the hands of natural catastrophe is at least notable. Heck, and even I'll throw in the meteor madness of Armageddon (1998), which dares to take specific note to flatten the Chrysler Building along with everything else. And for the sheer cheese factor, I cant forget to mention the 1999 made for TV Aftershock: Earthquake in New York.
*sigh* Lady Liberty, just can't catch a break...
10. King Kong (2005)
In the rather campy remake from 1976, Kong tackles the World Trade Center. By the time Peter Jackson got around to remaking it, he's back on top of the Empire State and wrecking a bit more havoc than his prior incarnation.
Honorable Mention: New Yorkers should be honored to know that in the Japanese monster classic Destroy All Monsters (1968) set in the future (aka 1999), New York City is in fact destroyed by Godzilla before he gets to Tokyo.
1 comment:
If you haven't done so already, a film you should check-out is THE LOST MISSILE (1958)starring Robert Loggia. It's about a missile from outside our galaxy that gets caught in Earth's atmosphere and begins orbiting around us. Traveling at an enormous speed and generating enormous heat, it lays waste to everything in its path...with New York City hot on its itinerary. This film should complement the fine list you've compiled.ReplyDelete

Share your own dining dealsDo you know of a fantastic dining deal in the Seattle area?
A restaurant or eatery where your can get quality food and decent portions for under $25 per person (including tax and tip)? Or is there a place you haven't tried yet and want to know more about? Tell us! We'll consider your choices for upcoming reviews.
When Justin Mevs opened The Lucky Diner in 2011, he wanted to bring Belltown denizens "stick-to-your-ribs comfort food" reminiscent of the diners he used to work at back home in upstate New York before attending culinary school. But with a focus on fresh, quality ingredients and knowledgeable cooking, the restaurant is anything but your typical greasy spoon.
The menu: Comfort food rules from breakfast to dinner on the extensive menu. Chicken-fried pork chops with country gravy and eggs ($11.95), blackened salmon scramble ($13.95) and omelets ($9.95-$12.95) highlight the breakfast offerings. Lunch and dinner options include subs and sandwiches, burgers with freshly ground beef from Don and Joe's Meats ($12.95-$14.95), and platters such as The Rochacha ($12.95). Nicknamed after Mevs' hometown Rochester, N.Y., where the dish is affectionately called The Garbage Plate, it's a grilled ground-beef patty topped with American cheese and served with home fries and macaroni salad and finished with minced onions, yellow mustard and beanless "cha-cha" chili. Mix it all up and enjoy. There are several veggie dishes and meat substitutes for each meal of the day. Breakfast is served around the clock.
What to write home about: Chicken and beer make a great comfort-food combo, and so it is with the diner's succulent, malty Beer Can Chicken, a half-chicken marinated in beer brine, rubbed with herbs and roasted around a beer can. The entrée comes with a heaping side of braised greens and "lucky beans," richly piquant black-eyed-peas, some of the best this Southern boy has had out West.
The setting: A bright, sleek, retro-inspired diner with a tiled lunch counter, tables and booths and luck-themed artwork on the walls.
Summing up: Beer Can Chicken with a side of brew jus came to $13.95, plus tax and tip.

Sec. Rice thinks she'll get a Palestinian-Israeli peace deal before the end of the year. See this BBC report. I wonder what kind of pressure can the U.S. put on Israel and Palestine to goad them into signing a deal. Also, how does Sec. Rice deal with the Hamas problem in the Gaza strip? Would a peace deal be accepted by Hamas? Wouldn't their opposition to a peace deal bolster their support in the West Bank and possibly threaten President Abbas' position? I'm a skeptic because I see the U.S. having to balance too many complicated and explosive issues. It'd be nice to be proven wrong, though. read more...
Glenn Kessler of the Washington Post has a pessimistic outlook on Bush's role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, In Search for Peace, a Shrinking White House Role. There's ample evidence that that the peace process started at Annapolis is going nowhere. Israel making a major incursion into Gaza (and more incursions likely to follow) does not establish a good basis for peace talks. Nor does, as Kessler points out, the administration's lack of leadership when Gaza pulled down its security barrier with Egypt back in January. The administration will have to do something more significant and sustained to prove that Annapolis was more than feel-good public relations. read more...
The Washington Post, A Middle East Commitment, is pretty glum on Bush's ME Peace Plan, saying that it doesn't propose anything new when compared to Clinton's 2000 plan. They also predict this peace round will end in violence -- with Israel confronting Hamas in the Gaza strip. read more...

Australia-NATO Relations
Over recent years, Australia's relations with NATO have expanded considerably in many areas, most notably since the deployment of Australian forces in Afghanistan under the NATO-led ISAF (International Security Assistance Force) mission. Australia is the largest non-NATO contributor to ISAF. Some 1550 ADF (Australian Defence Force) troops are deployed in Afghanistan, together with personnel from DFAT (Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade), AFP (Australian Federal Police) and other Australian government agencies.
Australia is also one of the countries sharing similar strategic concerns and key values that cooperate with NATO on a bilateral basis. NATO's adoption of a more efficient and flexible partnership policy in April 2011 paved the way to enhance the practical cooperation and the political dialogue with these "partners across the globe". In January 2012 Australia deepened its engagement with NATO when it appointed its first Ambassador to NATO.
Regular high-level political dialogue also underpins cooperation. Australia's defence and foreign ministers regularly attend NATO / ISAF meetings and meet its Secretary General. A month after the then Senator Bob Carr became the Australian Foreign Minister in March 2012 he had his first meeting with NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen. In June 2012, the Secretary-General visited Australia where he met with the then Prime Minister Gillard and the then Defence Minister Smith and signed a joint high-level political declaration with Australia. Also among his engagements, the Secretary General spoke at the National Press Club on closer ties between Australia and NATO.
Former Australian Prime Minister, the Hon Julia Gillard, MP made her first trip to NATO in October 2010 to discuss ISAF's efforts in Afghanistan with Mr Fogh Rasmussen. She and former Defence Minister Stephen Smith also participated in NATO Summits in Lisbon (November 2010) and Chicago (May 2012).

LOS ANGELES, January 5, 2013 – Minnesota Vikings play against the Green Bay Packers for the Saturday night game. Play and the Communities Live Chat both begin at 8pm EST.
The Prediction: Packers win but fail to cover.
Despite Minnesota beating Green Bay last week to make the playoffs and costing Green Bay a 1st round bye, this week the Packers are at home.
The Packers are on a mission after collapsing at home last year after a 15-1 season. Adrian Peterson is a feel-good story, but if the Vikings fall behind early he will be a non-factor.
Aaron Rodgers at home is a much safer bet than Christian Ponder on the road. Green Bay should win without much difficulty.
The winner of this game will play either the Atlanta Falcons or San Francisco 49ers depending on results from the other NFC Wildcard game

We are moving in a week and there are roaches everywhere. How do I stop them from going with us?
Here are the recent answer to this question.
By purcellj09/07/2013
I'm not moving or anything but we moved in to what we thought was bug free. Saw signs that they had been here but was told that it has been sprayed recently. Our old place was bad but not this bad and we've been battling them since.
Something that I read online on a homemade remedy for a roach trap is to get a few quart bell jars or larger. Put one part a fruit berry juice (not anything with citric acid) fill the jar 3/4 full with water and then use pratrolium jelly one the inside of the opening just above the water line and place the jar in a well ventilated area and it can draw the roaches by the smell.
Change the fluid ever week and discard the dead ones that are in it. I'm starting week 3 and I see a lot less bugs, but the website said it could take some time depending on how bad the infestation is. But the fist week every jar had some. The second week they where full so I am on my third week have noticed few overall but the are still out and mostly the smaller ones. It's and ideal and see if it helps any.
By Shadowlord01/18/2012
A week is a little short. I've had roommates bring in roaches twice. Both times Combat Sorce Kill gel worked. I repeated treatment 2 weeks later. Electronics are trickier. I used to repair VCR's (roaches love them) and other electronics. The best method I've found is to spray the inside of a heavy trash bag with insecticide like pyretherins or permethrin and place your devices inside. Do not spray your electronics directly. Leave them sealed air tight for 48 hrs. In the winter place them out in a car or storage shed if it's below freezing. I once had a vcr come in with over 300 roaches inside, we got tired of counting. That was by far the worst I have ever seen but this method killed them all.
By Virginia [11]11/04/2009
Terdralynn is correct. Boric acid kills 100% of roaches and it's cheap. You can mix in a little powdered sugar if you want or even add some flour and make balls out of it.
The plain powder works really well because the roaches are like cats and clean themselves so they will ingest it and the rest of the colony will eat the dead body and kill themselves from the contamination. It is dangerous to pets and children so keep it away from them.
By Jonathan. (Guest Post)09/16/2008
UGH, I'm so frustrated. I recently moved from a roach infested apartment. I went from living alone to having 4 roommates in a big house. I took all the precautions I could, we bombed my apartment the day before I moved. Got rid of everything I didn't need (couches,microwave etc) I put my computer in a vacume suctioned bag and left it in there for a week after moving...set it up, and since then I have seen 5 roaches. 4 of them were small, and I killed them, but one of my roommates found a full size one in the kitchen last night!!! I don't know what I have to do now to alleviate this problem, I did put out some roach motels and some borax stuff...I'm screwed.
By dean (Guest Post)02/24/2008
I have roaches and were moving in one week to a roach free apartment and I'm scared of bringing roaches through my computer and x-box 360, but there to expensive to leave behind. What would I have to do to make sure there safe to bring with us.
By Caitlin (Guest Post)10/10/2007
I am moving from a cockroach apartment to a cockroach-free place in a few weeks. Our bugs arent bad...yet. We usually see two or 3 a night in the bathroom or kitchen. Our plan, since my roommate and I are only moving across town, is to place boxes in my truck AS WE PACK THEM, checking every item carefully for roaches, and then drive them across town as soon as we have a truckload. i.e. get everything bug free out of the house as soon as its ready to go. Hopefully this works.
We're throwing out the toaster and the microwave.
Editor's Note: They also hide in other electronics, radios, tvs, etc. We moved once from a cockroach house and watched the babies hatch from the radio for about a month afterward.
By Lindsay (Guest Post)02/02/2007
Bomb before you pack, after, and a third time in you're in the new place. Open up and check everything! Especially electronics!
By Brian W. (Guest Post)10/15/2005
Roaches and more importantly roach egg capsules are usually successfully transported to new living quarters inside of electrical appliances; toasters, microwaves, electric can openers, computers, TV's, the cable box. And you can't clean inside of those. So do all of the common sense things but in most cases you will transport some of them with you. Most people don't realize that pesticides do not kill the egg capsules that roaches produce. So best to use Maxforce or Combat every where and keep it fresh every 30 days. Good luck
By reddlb09/06/2005
When we moved into our first home I got up in the middle of the night, turned on the light and black things went everywhere. I used several professional companys with no luck. I asked my Daddy what to do and he said "Sister the only way to get rid of them and keep them gone is to put out Combat every 90 days."
I did and it's been 17 roach free years. I like the fact that they are also safe around my babies. (my dogs lol)
Good Luck
By Tina [1]09/05/2005
they love stacks of newspapers and paper grocery bags, so toss your collection, and start fresh.
By terry09/02/2005
When I moved from a place that was crawling with cockroaches, I sprayed an ant and roach killer along the sides on the inside of the boxes, then packed them. I made sure that all my food was placed in plastic containers, and I didn't spray the boxes it was going into. I surrounded the outsides of all the boxes with boric acid powder, and I left the boxes in the middle of the floor until we could move them the next morning. We didn't take one cockroach with us, and I haven't had cockroaches in 23 years. I also wouldn't take anything I didn't have to take, to reduce your chances of carrying anything. You may also want to put some boric acid powder in your new home (cupboards, where you'll put the fridge and stove, bathroom cabinets, etc.) just in case any escape your original efforts. Boric acid is the only thing I trust to get rid of roaches, and it's cheap.
By Holly [350]09/01/2005
Nope, it wasn't borax, it was boric acid.
I was going to suggest you bug bomb the new place, too, but I would warn you there is a limit you will reach of the toxicity generated if you bomb the moving van and also the new place.
By Deborah Jones09/01/2005
After you've packed your truck, set off a "bug bomb" or two and seal the truck up overnight (don't drive the truck with a "bomb" going off!). That should kill any bugs that may be hiding in furniture or boxes. You'll probably have to repeat the process at your new place about a week later to take care of any new bugs that may hatch afterwards.
By brenda newton [6]08/31/2005
When we moved years ago, we had problems, also with a bug, NOT cockroaches. In order not to carry them with us, I washed everything and immediately packed it and took it out of the house NOW. It worked. Food... took cereal out of containers, put into new ziploc bags I had just bought....canned goods, washed the containers.
Tupperware worked great. I knew what was inside and it was good so I just washed the container and packed it immediately and got it out of our home ASAP.
Could you do something like that?

Mutton Busting, In Which Parents Let Their Young Children Get Tossed From Sheep
- topic:
- Videos
- In Real Life
- Sports
- Animals
We've never been to the rodeo, but it sounds like a *k*R*a*Z*y* time. Dudes riding on bulls and sh*t? That just sounds nuts. Hands down nuts, y'all. Honestly, though? It's probably not our scene.
Instead, we'd much prefer to head over to the baby rodeo, where *ZOMG* MUTTON BUSTING takes place. And while "mutton busting" sounds categorically filthy, it is, in fact, merely the act of a child riding a hyper sheep bareback.
As one might expect, some people consider it "child abuse" while others consider it "animal abuse" (and some, in fact, recognize it as both). And, sure, they're probably right, but it doesn't mean there aren't plenty of folks happy to upload the footage to the Tubez.
(J/K, we'd never want to see this live, considering that we'd end up picketing.)
- Mother of the Year?
hot on the web
By Oklahoma Kracker
You'd protest an event where a child in a flak jacket and helmet falls two feet into worked up sandy ground? Seems like with that kind of time on your hands you might be able to find something to do to actually make this world a better place.
Just a thought.
By Beth Ann Senderak
My neighbor's kid just suffered a concussion from doing this event. He has been coming home from school everyday with headaches, and they are headed to the doc again now. So yeah, this is very dangerous for children. First concussion at 6 years old? Take it from a pediatric nurse, this is not good. :(
By Seth
Here's another horrible horrible practice you should be aware of. Some reprehensible parents strap their children into wheeled contraptions and push them down hills with little thought to their safety. And not on soft rodeo dirt, but asphalt!? How is this ok?
Here is a video of a 10 yr old hitting a curb and doing a triple flip over an embankment and into a tree.
Have some perspective.
By Eric H
2 points:
1. Child Abuse: In the video you chose to support your comments I saw parents and kids spending time together, high fives, hugs, laughter, and encouragement, and some tears. Not sure what you do with your kids, but if they are sitting on a couch playing a video game right now you might what to re-think some things. Obesity and inactivity are claiming way more lives than riders in protective gear falling off sheep.
2. Animal Abuse: At least you admitted you haven't spent any time around stock animals. Rodeo stock are expensive and receive intensive care, from owners, riders, and vets. Larger, intelligent stock clearly enjoy the events and display a keen desire to participate. As for the sheep, it would be unfair to suggest they "want" to be ridden, they clearly would rather be left alone, but between pain tolerance, appropriate weight of rider, controlled area etc... injuries to sheep are unheard of. Their life in an open pasture is far more difficult, and brutal, than those selected for rodeo work.
You don't approve of rodeo because you don't know animals. Risk of injury? Animals risk injury in daily life. Unattended by ranchers or farmers they will run too fast, jump too high, fall off things, hurt each other, step off or on dangerous items... What they won't do is stay safefly in an enclosed prepared environment free or obstacles or other animals that could cause them injury unless you force them too against their will. And if you do, they spend 100% of their time trying to get out.
I doubt you will take these comments to heart, but they are true.
By Leanna
For a lot of these kids - mine included - this sport is taken VERY seriously. My 8-yo son and daughter both "bust" and will be riding broncs and bulls when they're old enough, if they want to continue with rodeoing. Their call. Child abuse? Hardly. Danger? Remote chance. Animal abuse? Well, I'm guessing the sheep would rather be ridden for 8 seconds than eaten... Oh, and my 14-yo son rides bulls. Guess I'm won't be in the running for the mother-of-the-year award.
By muttonbustinmom
My 16 yo eats breathes and sleeps ridin. Myself and my family support him and his opinions and choices. My 3 yo spends his afternoons practicing riding sheep. It's a way of life for most people in Southeast New Mexico where we are from. Child abuse? Animal abuse? What a bunch of morons...
By bethann0330
No, you sure won't be coming anywhere near mother of the year. You got that right! As a pediatric nurse, I think you are completely out of your mind.

My friend and former colleague Suzanne McGee called my attention to a story, the kind of which has become sadly familiar.
John Biggs wrote on TechCrunch about Churn:The Problem of the New Tech Journalism.. John writes:
We post a lot of things for two reasons. First, lots of posts is the low-hanging fruit in the orchard of traffic.. It's that simple… If that sounds mercenary, then you, the readers, are the hiring generals… If we didn't have to shovel this stuff into your constantly grinding maw we'd have a lot more time to write 4,000-word reviews of Atheros chipsets. The second reason we post so much and so quickly is because we're constantly involved in a conversation. It's a conversation with tipsters, with readers, with creators, with makers, and, sadly, PR peoplle.
Somehow, amidst the many excellent points he makes about the field of tech journalism, and the factors that explain its frenetic pace, John singles out PR for special attention (well, he also blames the hapless reader, and our "grinding maws"). John adds:
The answer, as far as I see it, is simple: avoid PR and PR newswires and keep the conversation going naturally.
There are several things to note here. First of all, it seems that PR has become an all-too-convenient target – bad behavior by some in the profession seems to give many in the media carte blanche to trash the entire field. I have written about this, here is one of my more recent stories: Absurd to Call Samsung Customer service Isssue a Tech PR Fail.
However, we are now, in growing numbers, quite vocally defending ourselves – the comments section for the Biggs article seems to be dominated by PR and many take issue with the story, kudos to John and TechCrunch for letting these stand.
The second is that the article reflects the overheated nature of tech media. I wrote about this too, see my post about sniping between the tech blogs.
Also, some may have seen the Twitter trash talking between Kara Swisher of AllThingsD and Alexia Tsotsis, also of TechCrunch yesterday, it got quite heated.
Let's all take a few deep breaths, can't we all just get along? Tech coverage is important, but let's face they are not writing about cures for world hunger. Even John admits:
"I can't say we're reporting on the cure for cancer or sending in dispatches from the Eastern Front…"
To add a little gallows humor, I include a video of recent SNL skit, which skewers tech bloggers, not to insult or trivialize tech journalism (after all my livelihood depends to a large extent on tech media, and the trust and good will that we establish with journalists) but to implore us all to keep things in proper perspective, lighten up (and,
yea okay and let's face it, it is a pretty funny and on-target routine).

- "Because to win in the game of football, or life, you have to annihilate errything in your path... in a blind rage."
- — BJ Smith
Former bureaucrat from 2011-2014.
Why I stepped downEdit
I never really had the knowledge of the GTA series to be a great content editor. I played and loved Vice City and San Andreas, and most of my best edits were to VC and SA related pages. I didn't care for GTA3, probably because I started with Vice City and compared to it, GTA3 seemed really primitive with the small car selection, simple missions and silent protagonist. I hated the bleak angsty aesthetic and the driving physics of GTA4, and never played GTAs 1 and 2.
I got the job because the wiki was rebuilding in the wake of the community split. A guy named WikisEditor somehow knew about my work as a bureaucrat on Bully Wiki and invited me (and my fellow bureaucrat Messi1983) to GTA Wiki not because of my content writing but because of my administrative knowledge. We put the wiki back together, got rules written and a fully functional staff promoted and trained.
And with that done, there wasn't much for me to do.
Every so often something requiring bureaucratish knowledge would happen, like the Dodo/Sasquatch dispute or the January 2014 Administrator Elections. But aside from the occasional Big Thing, all I was doing on GTA Wiki was occasionally reverting vandalism or blocking someone, and enforcing the image policy. And enforcing the image policy is tedious, takes a lot of time, and makes you unpopular with editors who don't see the point.
When GTAV came out at first I thought it was awesome. Then I suddenly lost all interest in it. I think it was in the lead-up to a heist where you have to store a getaway vehicle... I don't know. I found that so annoying that I just stopped playing and never started again. And when I realized that GTAV wasn't as great as I thought it was, I began to think it was time for me to leave the wiki.
Funny thing is, it's hard to let go if only because it's human nature to hang onto power, even if it's a power as insignificant as bureaucrat on a wiki, and even if we're rarely using it and not enjoying it when we do. Dan, Tom and I each have stepped down as bureaucrat before, then gone back and gotten ourselves repromoted - we ended up making a rule to keep us from doing that again, and since we each did that once it kind of balances out.
But the truth is, I'm done here, I've been done here for months, and if it wasn't for the fact that there's no takebacks on giving up your bureaucrat spot (especially now that Ilan got promoted into the spot) I'd have left this wiki a long time ago.
What I do nowEdit
Mostly dispute resolution, advice giving and that kind of stuff. If anything stepping down helps me to work on such things because I can talk to people without the threatening presence of being someone who can block them.
Sometimes I actually write content too. Mostly I look for articles with sprawling disorganized trivia sections and rewrite them integrating as much trivia as I can into the article, deleting the bunk.

North American Industrial Protective Clothing Market
NEW YORK, Feb. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue: North American Industrial Protective Clothing Market
The title of this research service is North American industrial protective clothing market. The market has been segmented in terms of types of products, namely high-visibility protective clothing, heat and flame resistant protective clothing, chemical protective clothing, antistatic protective clothing, and chainsaw protective clothing. The market dynamics have been assessed in detail in terms of factors such as market share of competitors, market driving and restraining forces, technological trends as well as regional trends in the United States and Canada. The revenue contribution by each segment in the total market revenue has been provided.
Executive Summary•The scope of this research includes five major types of industrial protective clothing: high-visibility, heat and fire-resistant (FR), chemical, antistatic, and chainsaw clothing.•The geographic scope includes the United States (U.S.) and Canada.•The North American industrial protective clothing market is mature, although some segments sometimes experience high growth due to revisions in industry standards.•For example, the heat and FR protective clothing segment is growing the fastest because of a 2010 OSHA memorandum, which mandated workers in the oil and gas industry to wear heat and FR clothing.•The heat and FR segment is the highest revenue contributor to the North American industrial protective clothing market and is expected to maintain its position, boosted by the OSHA's 2010 mandate.•A new standard, which is expected in 2013 and concerns combustible dust hazards, will increase growth in the heat and FR segment.•Along with high growth prospects, the industry also faces some challenges, mainly caused by the influx of imports from Asia.•Increases to products' average selling prices is expected to be hindered by cheap imports in the next five years unless the industry consolidates and raises entry barriers.•The market is witnessing considerable technological developments in design and raw materials. These are pushed by customer demand for better-performing protective clothing that is comfortable and stylish, and as a result, investment in research and development (R&D) is rising.•Multi-functionality is a growing trend in the industrial protective clothing in North America, and acceptance is being granted to lines of new products that combine such as features as high-visibility, chainsaw, chemical, and antistatic properties.TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Summary 4Market Overview 9Total Industrial Protective Clothing Market -•External Challenges: Drivers and Restraints 23•Forecasts and Trends 31•Market Share and Competitive Analysis 45•Mega Trends and Industry Convergence Implications 50High-visibility Protective Clothing Market 52Heat and Flame Resistant Protective Clothing Market 68Chemical Protective Clothing Market 84Antistatic Protective Clothing Market 100Chainsaw Protective Clothing Market 114The Last Word 130Appendix 133 To order this report: Clothing_and_Textile Industry: North American Industrial Protective Clothing Market Contact Clare: firstname.lastname@example.com:(339) 368 6001Intl:+1 339 368 6001 SOURCE Reportlinker

Hey Pulido! Kang! Tait! And the rest of you! Listen up.
Last year, Tulsa was building a new city hall. The mayor asked city workers and four private contractors to bid on the electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and carpentry; Tulsa's city maintenance staff submitted the more competitive bid -- by more than $100,000 -- and won the contract.
But these guys knew the lay of the land. The seven city staffers went on to find another $100,000 in savings as they went -- and they each got close to $4,000 in bonuses as a reward.
This, according to New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, is the sort of enlightened self-interest that gives public workers an incentive to save public money. And it's the sort of "bold idea that can make government work better, solve a serious problem, or improve city life" that Bloomberg Philanthropies, the wealthy mayor's charitable foundation, is looking for in its Mayors Challenge.
Bloomberg is offering $9 million for more bold ideas, and has asked the mayors of 1,300 cities with populations of at least 30,000 to weigh in. That includes most of the cities in Orange County, which have until Sept. 14 to apply.
There's a lot of action out there in O.C., from employees picking up a greater share of pension costs in places like Newport Beach to pooling resources to save money in Santa Ana (and countywide) to extra layers of protection built into city audits to avert Bell-like disasters in Laguna Niguel.
Other examples of good ideas cited by the Bloomberg Foundation:
Twenty finalists will go to New York (on the foundation) for an "ideas camp." The winner will get a $5 million prize, and four runners-up will get $1 million each.
Granted, that may be chump change for cities with budgets of many-hundreds-of-millions-of-dollars, but the idea of shaking the trees for new approaches that work is an intriguing one.
Thanks to "Frugal Liberal" Fred Smoller, public administration professor at Brandman University, for pointing this out to us. Smoller encouraged us at The Watchdog to encourage cities to apply; we hope they do.
We'll keep our eye on the results, one way or another -- some interesting ideas will surely emerge.

Crosslinguistic Perspectives on Argument Structure-Implications for Learnability
This book offers a unique interdisciplinary perspective on argument structure and its role in language acquisition. Drawing on a broad range of crosslinguistic data, this volume shows that languages are much more diverse in their argument structure properties than has been realized.
The volume is the outcome of an integrated research project and comprises chapters by both specialists in first language acquisition and field linguists working on a variety of lesser-known languages. The research draws on original fieldwork and on adult data, child data, or both from seventeen languages from eleven different language families. Some chapters offer typological perspectives, examining the basic structures of a given language with language-learnability issues in mind. Other chapters investigate specific problems of language acquisition in one or more languages. Taken as a whole, the volume illustrates how detailed work on crosslinguistic variation is critical to the development of insightful theories of language acquisition.
Crosslinguistic Perspectives on Argument Structure integrates important contemporary issues in linguistics and language acquisition.
