Gear Review
such great pants
Kim Havell
Member since
Great fit, great style, and very flattering. Versatile pant and really comfy. Light enough to work through spring and fall seasons. Found the pant fit true to size, I fit them to my hips. I'm 5'8 medium/athletic build and the 6 was perfect. I'm going to get more colors!

Porirua Harbour
Porirua Harbour is a natural inlet in the south-western coast of the North Island of New Zealand. The city of Porirua, one of the four cities in the Wellington conurbation, surrounds it. The city centre is to the south of the harbour.
The harbour has an entrance only a few hundred metres in width, close to the suburb of Plimmerton. It opens up into two arms, Porirua Inlet to the south and Pauatahanui Inlet to the north-east. Each arm is around three kilometres in length.
The wetland at Pauatahanui, where Pauatahanui Stream enters the Pauatahanui Inlet, is the largest remaining estuarine wetland in the lower North Island, and the Pauatahanui Wildlife Reserve has been established to protect the inlet's environment and to restore damaged areas.
Part of the Porirua Inlet was reclaimed for a causeway for the North Island Main Trunk Railway. The construction of this causeway created three shallow lagoons from the harbour. When State Highway 1 was re-aligned in the 1970s alongside the railway, these lagoons were partially filled in. Aotea Lagoon was developed into a recreational area, albeit very polluted.

Review of Combinat in Vienna
As its name suggests, Combinat is the combined store for Austrian and Hungarian fashion labels Pitour, Artista, km/a, Aquanauta and Lothar Daniel Bechtold. In 2005, Maria Oberfrank of Pitour opened the shop as a creative hub for art and design, located in quartier21, "a support structure that offers space and support to more than forty small and medium-sized autonomous cultural initiatives within Vienna's MuseumsQuartier." Once the Habsburg's horse stables, Combinat's historic space, with its high cathedral ceiling, old wooden parquet and large windows is full of colorful racks of clothing, printed bags and accessories from all four designers. Several art exhibitions are also on display throughout the year and can be found on the store's website. Maria Oberfrank has been a very active part of the Viennese fashion scene. She co-founded the MQ Vienna Fashion Week – an opportunity for national and international designers to showcase their collections. Visit Combinat to discover locally produced, uniquecollections inside one of MuseumsQuartier's beautiful courtyards.

WWDC '08: Polar Bear Farm
I had a quick chat with Guy Horrocks from Polar Bear Farm on his way out of the Keynote. The video quality is well below our prestigious TUAW standards, and for that I apologize. Regardless, it's a pleasure to talk to a member of a team which has been delivering functionality deemed by many to be missing from the iPhone, such as the contact search that they previewed for us last time we ran into them. They're certainly not complaining that the announcements at the Keynote will nullify that particular application, they've got plenty more to work on.
I got Guy's perspective on moving from the jailbreak scene to "legitimate" iPhone application development, as well as some thoughts on the apps presented in the Keynote. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to demo -- or even talk about -- what they're currently working on. I assume that was out of fear of the World's Toughest Programmer lurking nearby, with whom they're currently in cahoots. Of course, it could have been the NDA.

The judges discuss the competition, Shonen Jump around the world and more!
Hosono: Let's begin. Joining us today are four editors-in-chief in charge of Shonen Jump around the world. I am Shuhei Hosono, deputy editor-in-chief of Weekly Shonen Jump in Japan, and I will be the moderator.
International Manga Competition
Hosono: It's very rare for all four editors-in-chief from Japan, America, China and Taiwan to be gathered in the same place, so I'm looking forward to an interesting discussion. Now that we have finished judging the Shonen Jump Manga Competition, would you mind sharing your impressions on the competition as a whole?
Sung: We have held various manga competitions at Tong Li, and this one felt very similar. I think it's wonderful that we're able to hold a competition judged by editors from different places with different cultural backgrounds and varying points of view. Since each of us comes from different backgrounds, I feel that our points of view on manga differ as well. The selected titles do not rely on any specific cultural tropes, and I believe they all measure up as far as the level of quality goes.
Hosono: How many applicants do you have for the competitions you hold for Formosa Youth, and how is the quality of the entries?
Sung: We have about a hundred entries per contest. At Formosa Youth, we hold these competitions regularly, and with each contest, both the number of entries and the quality have been declining. I would love for the people of Taiwan to read these excellent entries from the Shonen Jump Manga Competition, and I hope it will inspire them to become more creative.
Leung: It is a very rare and wonderful opportunity to receive these entries from across the world and to be here with my fellow editors from across the world to judge them. Each manga had qualities that reflected its country of origin with their own unique form of expression. Also, I believe that competitions like this are a wonderful opportunity to discover new manga artists.
Hosono: Which country do you believe offered the freshest take on manga?
Leung: Chinese manga artists read a lot of Japanese manga, so I didn't necessarily see many differences between the Chinese and Japanese entries. I felt that the American entries were the freshest because the differences between Chinese and American cultures and lifestyles are quite drastic.
Heishi: It was a great experience for me, since I learned that each country has both differences and similarities in terms of how we view manga. One difference, for example: while a title might work in other countries, it may not be appropriate for China because of how certain things are expressed. On the other hand, the basics of selecting a title on the importance of story or characterization and how these entries might appeal to a shonen audience—these points we all have in common. There were many entries that were more for adults, but the ones that we selected all had a shonen quality to them. We also found that forms of expression unique to Europe and inspiration from classic Chinese comics—all of these things are beginning to fuse together.
Andy: This was our first manga competition for the English version of Weekly Shonen Jump, and it was a great learning experience. While the quality varied between entries, the effort put into all of the submissions was quite clear to us. We saw this effort from the Japanese, Taiwanese and Chinese entries as well. Also, reading these international manga entries made us realize that while the entries came from different countries and cultures, manga is still manga.
Heishi: That's deep...

Do this, it'll be good for you
by, 16th March 2013 at 11:26 PM (266 Views)
Comment saying something that makes you happy. I'll start:
*Talking to someone I don't really know, being myself and they are being nice back. It's simple, but life is about the small things right?
P.S. I've been thinking about this since watching an episode of Will And Grace last night. A character, Jack, gave a play he wrote to his friend, Karen. She said that it was bad, and he asked for advice. So she said, "what's important to you? Write about that." and as a creative person, this really struck me. I've been writing music, and none of it has been about things that are important to me. So now I'm going to start. It's so simple, but it's amazing how far your mind can drift from what's important, and to be grateful for what you have :)

Not the same old Steelers
Not the same old Steelers
User Rating: / 7
Tuesday, 08 November 2011 00:45
Written by Bob Smizik
There is a tendency to look at the Steelers 6-3 record and believe with some degree of certainty that all will be well; that the team will rebound from the loss to Baltimore; that it will make the playoffs; that it might even win the division.
For example, I fully expect them to beat the Cincinnati Bengals Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium, not so much based on what has happened this season but based on what has happened in the past.
These are the Steelers, and our minds, and perhaps our hearts, tells us they do things other team cannot do.
Why, for example, should there be reason for concern about an uneven 6-3 start when we know their recent past? Who can forget 2005, when they were not only 7-5 but in the midst of a three-game losing streak and given up for dead only to begin a winning streak that did not end until they were hoisting the Lombardi Trophy.
If you believe in this team you believe for one reason: They are the Steelers. Nothing else, save some outstanding individuals, about the team shrieks of success. Only their history.
But history does not win football games. The NFL is no respecter of history. Its a what-have-you-done-for-me-lately league. And lately -- 2011 -- the Steelers are not quite ordinary but also not quite championship caliber.
That 6-3 record includes a win over one team, New England, with a winning record. Those wins have come against opponents that are a combined 15-34. Included in those wins are a three-point victory over 0-9 Indianapolis, a team that otherwise has lost by an average of 19 points a game, and by four points to Jacksonville, which is 2-6 and held the Steelers scoreless in the second half.
The Steelers five remaining opponents (seven games) are a combined 21-18. Only two of the five have losing record. The one-time cupcake schedule is considerable more difficult than originally believed.
[B]So if you are getting ready for a gallant charge to the finish and another trip deep into the playoffs, dont be so certain. Yes, these are the Steelers. But theyre the 2011 Steelers and thus far theyve done nothing.[/B]

I would have had a negative outlook like this just a few weeks ago....but Im leaning on the side of us still being a title contender this season
The difference??? Max Starks and Gilbert....These guys are finally starting to stabilize our O-Line.....
Before, with Scott out there it was just a mess and there was no way we were going to be competitive with Pass Protection like that
As long as the Steelers don't let this last loss effect their mind, we should be able to rally and stay in the hunt....and if we can keep relatively healthy for a final push, we'll still have a good shot

Re: Not the same old Steelers
I see a team in transition.
This season we discovered things about our offense that we knew were there but the coaching staff was either reluctant to admit they saw those things too or was denying that those things existed. Those "things" were a pass-first preference and a more open and dynamic offensive capability which of course is not many people's vision of "Steeler Football".
Thankfully, Tomlin and others have come to their senses and recognized this tendency and are now in the process of refining it. But it IS a process and it will take time to sort through what CAN be done and hopefully they'll end up with a solid list of what SHOULD be done.
This type of offense is very different for the coaches, the fans and to some extent to many players themselves especially the veterans who have played more traditional "Steeler Football" for so long that it will take some time to adapt to the new paradigm.
But I think that in the end, changing our approach to the way we play offensively towards a more open-ended style of play will pay dividends but like anything else, will take time to refine. It is both fortunate and unnerving that we discovered all of this while the season is underway but it is what it is and I credit Tomlin & Co. for the willingness to work with it rather than stubbornly adhering to some mythical stereotype of how we should be playing football.
That transition is why writers and other watchers can't quite figure out what to say about us. But if this transition works out as I think it will, this team will be unstoppable and I can't wait to see the finished product!

Re: Not the same old Steelers
it's tough to say this but
Not every year will give us, the fans, the results we want - we have extremely high expectations - and as someone mentioned, the expectations are probably the equivalent of what Yankees fans expect out of their team every single season, year in, year out. That will always set us up for huge letdowns.
I agree - we are a team in transition and while we all respect a lot of guys that continued the winning Steelers tradition, I'm also looking to embrace the change, hard as it may be. The bottom line is that we all want this team to win, so whatever that means - I'm all for it. I'm not worried about older vets getting their respect - no team respects their players like the Steelers organization (i.e. Smith's situation, and a lot of others)
I'm gonna try really hard to take a step back and enjoy every week, every win no matter who it is against. I think we'd all agree this 2011 Steelers are at the very least competitors and a playoff caliber team - that alone could lead us anywhere.
Now let's go put that Red Rifle in his place!

Re: Not the same old Steelers
Very true.
But when you love a team that since 1972 has been to the playoffs 26 times, been to the AFC Championship game 15 times, has been to 8 Super Bowls and won 6 of them...
it's kinda hard not to have high expectations.

Re: Not the same old Steelers
The old Steelers wouldn't have let the Ravens march down the field like that. On the other hand, Torrey Smith clearly pushed William Gay on that game-winning play.

Re: Not the same old Steelers
we don't have to win the super bowl, if we kick the ravens or new england out of the playoffs ill be satisfied with the season lol
but i would stop with that 'we aren't a contender' talk, we are. this team is going through a youth movement and will hit a couple bumps along the way. The amount of talent we have on the field can't be denied for long.
we just went up against maybe the AFC's best team and they brought their A game. We played without several key players and still gave them all they could handle, maybe even should have won. I wouldn't be so quick to lose hope people.

Re: Not the same old Steelers
Right now we're just a 1/2 game out of first in the division and Conference-wide we're a six-seed in the playoff picture -- and there are still 7 games left to play.
We may not be in the driver's seat right now but we're definitely riding shotgun.

Re: Not the same old Steelers
And the Ravens? All I can say is this. Like the Steelers, we are pretty lethal at home, and that's what we are shooting for.

Long-term container-shipping contracts based on various freight indexes are gaining ground, but their progress is being slowed by a lack of understanding on the part of shippers.
"A lot of shippers I talk to shrug when I talk about indexed contracts," said Joe Alagna, vice president of sales for China Shipping Container Lines in the U.S. "What I see in discussions with beneficial cargo owners that are willing to talk about indexed contracts is that other people in those companies need to get an understanding of them."
Alagna's comment reflected the participants' views at a forum of the Container Freight Derivatives Association at Morgan Stanley's offices in New York on Monday. However, participants agreed that there is a need to establish a better way of setting freight rates since the their volatility is making it hard for both carriers and shippers to plan ahead.
On the Asia-Europe trade, for example, rates rose from $499 per 20-foot container equivalent unit in December 2011 to $1,742 per TEU in May 2012, an increase of 350 percent in six months. "It hasn't been a pleasant ride," said Jean-Marie Lamay, head of commodity and freight solutions for HSH Nordbank.
Shippers and carriers can trade derivative instruments based on indexed contracts to hedge against the risk of extreme rate fluctuations, but neither the number of indexed contracts nor the volume of rate derivative trades is big enough to serve that purpose yet.
"There are a lot of unknowns at this point," said David Brady, vice president of the trans-Pacific eastbound trade at Hyundai Merchant Marine. "We need to know more and how it affects pricing because we can't sustain the current model." He said some shippers are bringing indexed contracts to HMM. "We like the multiterm aspect of them."
He said HMM had negotiated its first long-term indexed contract last year and had concluded another one this year.
The Federal Maritime Commission has 45,000 contracts on file, of which only 62 are based on indexed freight rates, said FMC General Counsel Rebecca Fenneman. Nineteen of the 62 contracts were filed by carriers with at least one indexed contract; 12 of the 23 beneficial cargo owners that have filed contracts have more than one indexed contract and two of the BCOs have at least nine contracts 23 are with beneficial cargo owners.
One of the factors delaying widespread acceptance of indexed contracts is that no single large organization has yet stepped forward as a sponsor, the way BHP and other large Australian mining companies did when China defaulted on its fixed rate dry-bulk shipping contracts for iron ore imports in 2008. This happened after spot rates fell to $50 per ton from the $180 per ton contract rate.
Brady said shipping company shareholders and bank lenders could act as the catalysts for carriers to negotiate more indexed contracts and hedge them in the markets. "Investors won't invest in shipping lines and banks won't lend to them unless they are smoothing out the cycles by hedging their freight rates risks," he said.

Chapter 1: As grounded as a bird
with clipped wings
Being random was key,
Government a choice of lunch or dinner,
and love or any emotion indefinable by one word alone.
For all those who share in these beginnings of streaming tangents,
Welcome to Utopia…The "no place" of thoughts, ideas, and the forgotten…
"Hey!" Seraphyn cried in shock as something hit the back of his neck, sliding slowly down his back. "What the!", he said as he reached to remove whatever it is that was slowly making its way down his back. " Why- What is this stuff?! It feels almost gooey!" He trumpets out in shock to no one, removing his hand with a sample of whatever substance fell on him. Seraphyn brings his hand to his face to study whatever it was as he walks to the nearest fountain. Looking closely at the substance, suddenly he goes into a cold sweat and his eyes start to unfocus. "This… What is this? Paint? This is paint. Someone must be painting something. Yeah, this is paint. Some kids are probably on the roof doing graffiti," He mumbled to himself.
Just then, a sickening "THUD" echoes eerily behind him, and for some reason he gets sprayed. Seraphyn looked down to see red oozing from the direction the thud came from. " Don't tell me that they dropped a paint bucket all the way from the school roof! If that hit me, I coulda died!", Seraphyn says as he starts to turn around to see what a mess the paint can made. For some reason, his mind started to scream to him. "Don't.. Don't!….. Don't turn around. DON'T! DON'T TURN AROUND!" Funny, it doesn't even sound like my own voice," Seraphyn mumbles as he finishes turning around, and sees a mangled person not three feet away from him. " This… Isn't real… Hey! Get up!," He tells the body lying in front of him. Seraphyn looks down, and sees his reflection in the shining, almost translucent pool of blood that had come to surround him. Finally he realizes just what he sees. His eyes tremble and dart towards the body; to find it looking straight back at him. Seraphyn stares at the eyes, almost angelic, almost beautiful though cold and almost lifeless. Seraphyn realizes what he's doing and quickly bends down to check for life.
"A-a pulse! A pulse! Th-the neck," Seraphyn almost hysterically says as he bends down, crouching in the blood to check for a pulse. For some reason, just as he was checking, he felt something warm against his leg. Blood. It felt like blood but, even if he was crouching and did get splattered, there was no reason for it to feel so heavy, and why was it so warm?! Seraphyn glances down to see a hand clenching his pants, a hand very much alive as it trembles with the strain of being moved. Quickly, Seraphyn looks back at the face, whose eyes were now staring, not off into the distance, but straight into his eyes.
" You're- You're alive! I have to call an ambulance!", Seraphyn watches as the person's eyes open wider. " D-don't worry! My cell is in my backpack! It's just by the fountain, so I won't go anywhere! Just let go of my pants so I can call 911!" Seraphyn notices that the person, this mangled person, is trying to say something! He leans down closer to see if he can hear. "No." Seraphyn leaned back aghast, almost positive he heard or saw right. It might have just been an exhalation of air, but he was sure that that person had just said no. " Wh-why?! You're still alive, and you can still live if I call someone!", Seraphyn says in a cracked, definitely hysterical voice. He looks back at the person, his face a pasty white from the beginnings of shock. The person then starts to lip-synch something again. Seraphyn watches carefully, but for some reason his eyesight keeps blurring and he can't seem to figure out for the life of him what she's saying. "I-I'm sorry! I just can't figure out what you just said! What do you want me to do? You don't want me to call an ambulance, you don't want to let go of me…. What do you want!", Seraphyn cried out, shaking like a leaf. " Do you want me to watch you die?!" Just then, her current look breaks as she smiles and slowly closes her eyes…
Suddenly, there's a big whamming crunch sound, like the sound of bones under sudden pressure breaking. "A…At…. My limit…." Seraphyn thinks as he stares in amazement at the roof's drain pipe sticking out of the motionless body. Seraphyn felt as the blood that splattered on him starts to soak into his clothes, and watches as blood gushes from her like the fountain that he was using to get the "paint" off of himself. Seraphyn's jaw loosely dangles in amazement at what he just saw starts to get dizzy as red starts to blot out his vision. Seraphyn starts to fall back, slowly sinking into unconsciousness, but just before he fully slips away, he sees something. As if in slow motion, Seraphyn sees someone on the roof, throwing down many small, white things. " Snow…. It looks…. Like…Snow….", Seraphyn thinks as he starts to slip into unconsciousness, his last image as if everything was gray, except the pure white and the blood red that surrounded him.
"Woah, hey… Isn't that the guy?", Caleb hears one of the many students around him whispering, the halls not full of laughter but subdued school circulating gossip. "Yeah, his…" Caleb frowns as he walks faster, not wanting to hear all the gossip around him, just wanting to go to class and get back home as soon as possible. Still looking down, lost in his own thoughts, he opens the classroom door to silence. Finding this strange, Caleb looks up to see everyone faced forward.
"Odd, but kind of a relief," He thinks as he takes his seat at the back, closest to the door. As Caleb rummages through his bag for his homework, a sharp bang echoes through the classroom. Looking up, curious as to what the sound was, Caleb's eyes register and the shock of it starts to seep into his eyes, his face an unreadable mask. Someone had pulled down the chalkboard which had different writings scrolled across it. Things like, "Go away!" or "we don't want a psycho in our class", could be seen vividly as the red-chalked writing glared angrily back at Caleb, the green chalk board itself an eerie executioner. All of a sudden, something could be felting knocking against his hands, waking him from his entrancement. Looking down, Caleb finds many little crumpled pieces of paper strewn all over on and around his desk. As he fingers them, the door behind him opens and closes. Caleb, his head slightly bent down, follows the teacher with his eyes as he walks up to the front and stations himself, the green chalkboard behind him spotless.
"When did they?", Caleb's thoughts spew out as he rewinds through his mind to figure out when they could have possibly accomplished this without him noticing. "—leb. Caleb.", the teacher says in a raised voice, breaking through his thoughts, causing him to jump and sit straight forward with his eyes intently on the teacher in an automatic reaction. "Caleb, it is with great sympathy that I ask you to go to the office," The teacher's voice resonated through the now throbbing silence. " The principal himself would like to address you. Of course, you probably know what this is about…" The teacher turned away, scribbling something on the glistening chalkboard and telling everyone to take out their homework, obviously finishing the one-sided conversation.
Caleb stood, sighing as he swept his homework papers and the crumpled papers into his backpack, opened the door, and stepped into the hall as he purposely slammed the door shut. " Everyone that has ever gotten in trouble and was sent to the office has done this, so I might as well keep up the tradition." Caleb thinks bleakly as he stands with his back to the door, waiting for the imminent reprimand. Looking back at a glance through the slightly below eye-level window, he notices that the students are smiling maliciously and the teacher, to his surprise, has a look of amusement on his face. I've never been well liked by my classmates to begin with since I never really bothered to get to know them…. But the teacher, Caleb thinks in respite, looks as if he's enjoying this… As if it were some kind of drama… And I'm playing right into it as the main character. Fuck that, I haven't been here long anyhow, and I never cared for this teacher's droll seminar's anyhow. Looking confused and angry, Caleb makes a Beeline in the direction of the office just down the hall.
As Caleb starts to pass the section where two of the halls intersect, two doors away from the office, someone steps in his path. Not looking up, Caleb tried to sidestep this inconveniently intrusive person, but what appears to be a he from the look of the shoes, imitates his actions. Reluctantly, he looks up to find the inconvenient person about a foot taller than him. "Excuse me," Caleb mumbles as he looks to the right of this overbearing person, hoping to squeeze through between him and the wall. In one sudden motion, Caleb's back is swiftly pinned against the wall and, for some reason, is unable to remove his back from said wall. Looking gloomily to his right, he sees as the guy's arm which is almost grazing his shoulder. From this alone, Caleb sullenly concludes that he shouldn't have bought a backpack with a handle at the top, and realizes that even a satchel would have been a better idea seeing as it would have been easier to slip out of in a hurry. Realizing that he was neglecting the one person who put him in this position, Caleb notices just how close he is, This is gonna traumatize me, huh. Sweeping his eyes over to look at him while still facing his arm, Caleb notices just how close he is, so close in fact that he can feel the warmth of his breath running up and down his neck in rhythmic puffs.
His breathing seems pretty unconstricted, Caleb thought , feeling the warm breath slowly slide over his face and down his neck. From that alone, it seems that he's unconcerned about consequences relating to this… Breathing slow and steady… Knowing weakpoints… This guy's done something like this before.
"Hn, what's the matter?" The guy said in an almost contemptuously pompous attitude. " Aren't you gonna start begging for your safety or trying to bribe me off? Don't tell me you're gonna cry!" Laughing out loud to his comment, he loosens the grip on Caleb backpack handle a bit. Unconcerned and uncaring, Caleb brushes off the guy's arm and starts to continue his march to the office. In one big movement, Caleb's shirt gets grabbed and with the other arm, his escape is closed off. Wincing, Caleb feels as his opponent starts purposely kneading his knuckles painfully into Caleb's chest. "You think you're hot stuff do ya, brushing me off like that! You wanna know something? I got paid… A lot, just to beat you up without anyone noticing, and so bad that you won't ever come back. Lucky for me I got such a nice opportunity to do so, I could really use the money… Ah! Uh oh, footsteps." He smirks as he opens the first classroom nearest him and shoves Caleb in after him, muffling him as he listens to the footsteps recede into the distance.
"Ya scared yet?" He cackled malevolently. " If not, you definitely will be soon. It's a lucky break that these classrooms aren't used very often since they're so close to the office." The brute took a step forward, and another as he said this. In Caleb's eyes it seemed like the guy was used to doing his business in this way. Hmmm….. He is sooooo an evil vulgar sadist. How are these horrid people created? Caleb thought, obliviously letting a smirk tarnish his indifferent manner. Realizing what he himself is doing, Caleb tries to hide it, hoping that this basilisk who's eyes seem t o define every movement as to not permit disobedience to it's prey, hasn't decided to turn him into a living statue. No, if he has taken it for retaliation, I'll just have to use it for one. If he decides to attack, I shall evade. For the moment, scheming has its pros and cons. I must notice every little detail- Caleb's thoughts are cut off as he realizes that the enemy's movements have yet to subside, on the contrary, they seemed to have a kind of rhythm to them as a cobra does when listening to the piper's song. In this case, though, the piper is rusty, and any mistake could be lethal.
"So, you think you can smirk at me and think that I'm below you, right?!" The cobra starts to hiss at its newly accustomed prey. " I, Kei, am not one to be taken lightly-"
" So it has a name and speaks, the snide worm," Caleb scoffs out, not realizing himself whom it was that spoke. He stared into the depths of his executioner's beady, snake-like eyes full of malice and hate. Upon closer inspection, his hair looked as if bedhead was the new in, his hair lightly brushing into his eyes to which he often flicked it away. He wasn't an ugly, loathsome creature, on the contrary, with a little time his appearance could be almost handsome. The only problem was his attitude, which marred him, refusing to be cleaned from its muddy niche.
"What are you staring at? Finally realizing what you said is going to be the death of you? That little face of yours will soon be marred beyond recognition." Kei spits, getting himself more worked up. "Just because of your looks, you thought everyone was below you with that cold aire about you. Well—hey, what are you staring so intently at, are you only smart when it comes to tests or what?! Is what I'm saying not getting through to you?!"
In three swift strides, Kei had once again gained access to Caleb, giving him a swift punch into the stomach. Caleb felt as the air rushed out of him as he fought with his stomach and lungs to bear the pain and remain calm. Caleb slowly, painfully stands straight, not allowing the tumultuous pain that spread from his stomach to show on his face. Looking into his punisher's face, Caleb says almost jokingly, " I was just thinking what a nice bone structure you had. With the right haircut and complimenting wardrobe, you could knock 'em dead, boys and girls alike. I'm not sure where your interests lie, but if you were to do so, I think you'd be surprised by how much attention you could procure."
"Are you making fun of me you fucking excuse for a punching bag," Kei growls as he lays another punch into Caleb, this time harder than last. Caleb kneels, his previously quivering legs of no more use. Though on the ground, Caleb refuses to allow himself to stop staring straight into Kei's face. Caleb then does something he himself finds remarkable in his crippled state, he smiles broadly at Kei, and begins the cumbersome and clumsy movements required to stand. Kei's face registered with slight surprise by how his victim was holding up, but even that slight change in his facial characteristic was exchanged for utmost rage and disgust. This show almost spoke, if it could have it would have related something as close as: How dare that lowly life form dare try to get up. Someone like him…. No mercy. Pleasure crossing Kei's face, he yanked Caleb up farther by the hair, laying a hard knee into his stomach, then backhand slapping him into a desk.
Caleb proceeds to fall, taking the chair down with him in a loud crash and thump as he lands with the chair on his back. Caleb, with his head down, watching as his now ashen arms shakily hold him up again winces at the throbbing that focuses in on his swelling cheek. Caleb starts feeling around with his tongue, finding new gashes and pockets of a salty liquid now encompassing his mouth. leaning forward a little, feeling as if the room were moving, he comes to hear a dripping sound. Everything else around him seemingly fades into the background… his limbs seemingly ceasing all function, for he could no longer tell his hand from his foot, becoming an almost omnipresent being as he follows as to the position the sound is coming from. Roaming with bleary eyes, Caleb rests on a now small red puddle below him and feels as if his whole body were kicked all at once. Unable to take his eyes away, Caleb watches as the blood drips from his injured mouth to coalesce with the rest of its kind on the floor, feeling his own pulse stronger and stronger.
" What are you two doing?!" A deep-throated voice comes from the direction of the marked up blackboard. " How did you get in here you scoundrels! This is not some boxing ring, this is a classroom!"
Caleb awakens from his reverie just to say in a groggy voice, "Huh?" Then begins his cumbersome job of cleaning his mouth and making sure no blood gets on his clothes. To his relief, no more blood came to replace what he had removed with his hands, though now he was unsure of what to do next. Realizing the quietness of the room, Caleb looks up to see this teacher scowling at him. The teacher then turns from his lengthy scowl and begins wetting the towels used for the projection with the bottled water he had seemingly brought with him. After successfully accomplishing his goal, he tosses the towels in Caleb's direction saying, " Clean up the mess you made on the floor, and it might be a good idea to clean yourself off as well before you go to the office." The teacher's response sounded more like he was making fun of his predicament than actually helping him, but Caleb being too tired to care decides to turn the other cheek and clean the mess.
Using one towel for the floor, another for himself, and fixing the topped desk chair, Caleb concludes his custodial duties for more pressing matters: What the hell is going on. Turning once more to this professor whom seemed to find delight in the fact that he was previously in a literal groveling position, the now composed adult clears his throat to say some "seemingly more important than your own life speech.
" As students," He begins in a stressing manner, " of this very very well respected school, it is your responsibility to be able to restrain yourselves from degrading behavior such as this." As he says this, his eyes light on Caleb, as if the show was a one man circus and continues to drool on until, his sermon at an end, he dismisses the now sleep depraved Kei as if he was the innocent in this masquerade! Turning to Caleb, he remarks in a low tone as the door closes behind them, " I can't really blame him for doing that, many people have been wanting to for a while now, even before this incident sprung up." The teacher then smiles in an aire of satisfaction as he concludes this classroom play with, " Follow me, I'll bring you to the office myself. I think being beaten up once is good enough for today at least, though I am a little upset I forgot to bring the popcorn to this most exciting show."

Necessary Roughness Review: "Poker Face"by Christine Orlando at . Comments
Between her job and her kids, Dr. Dani's life is never dull. But when thugs show up at her door, a gorgeous blonde moves in on Matt, and her kids are arrested, I'm betting she'd be happy to be bored.
"Poker Face" brings us Matt's ex - and Dani can't stop squinting. Nico says it's her tell when she doesn't like someone. It's either that or Dani needs sunglasses to block the light reflecting off Laura's perfectly blonde hair and perky smile.
Yet Dani continues to push Matt away. Unfortunately, you can only do that to someone so many times before they take the hint and stop trying. I'm not sure if Matt's at that point, but his willing ex is anxious to show him the way.
Then there's Nico.
As soon as he hears about the thugs at Dani's door, he's taking care of things. He assures her they won't be back, and in the meantime, he has a guard on her house.
I know Nico's the one who sent Jason to Dani, so he's probably feeling a little guilty for the fallout, but he certainly seems to have a protective streak when it comes to the good doctor.
So Dani's got Matt, the gorgeous trainer who's yearning for her on one hand and Nico, the intriguing and protective fixer on the other. Don't you wish you had such problems?
Back on the home front, Dani's kids are in trouble... again. Every week there's some new debacle for these two to fall into. I agree with Lindsey. I'm tired of seeing Ray J get away with murder, but even when he gets caught, Dani doesn't seem all that angry. Lindsey usually gets more of her wrath. Perhaps it's a mother/daughter thing.
TK continues to play the bad boy and does nothing but joke about his ankle bracelet. I suppose when you've got his money, you just move the party to your place.
And I like how Dani can hold her own at a poker table. For once, having a degenerate gambler for a mother comes in handy.
So, are you as tired of the teenage angst as I am? Maybe we can ship the kids off to their dad's for an episode or two. And if you had to choose a love interest for Dani, would it be Matt or Nico?

Go Nico mysterious and goodlooking
Team Nico!
in the beginning the whole matt dani thing was cute but recently Nico has shown so much more spark with dani that they cannot not end up together!
Oh, so-Nico!!!!! There's something intense about him. I fell in love in the very first episode. Plus, he's got a nice protective side to him. Matt is dull, I don't really see how he and D would work. He's just... too simple for my taste. ;-)
team nico all the way
fell in love with him in the first episode and the development of his character is one of the amazing ones i watched in tv and i watched a lot of tv
I kind of liked Matt's (ex)girlfriend. She and Dani didn't get along at first, and I do not see them becoming friends, but they had a few moments there - looking at the girls on the cellphone - that was pretty funny. And the two actresses had really good timing and chemistry. It would be funny to see an ep where the two of them have dinner and Matt gets nervous about them comparing notes.
Since the first ep I've thought Nico was the better choice (of course, I loved him on Gilmore Girls, and I couldn't stand Marc Blucas on Buffy, so that might have something to do with it). I like matt, but I love nico. However, I see more of a close friendship/peer relationship between them, for now. Matt is fun enough to introduce her back to that world, and still somewhat a friend. The one thing no one has considered - we don't know much about Nico, a tidbit or two per ep - he could actually be married or in a relationship. He seems like he would keep that part of his life very private. I do pick up on a spark between them, though.
Oh, and the kids - obnoxious, somewhat boring, spoiled, pains in the ass - isn't that a pretty realistic portrial of teens? And I don't think Ray Jay gets off easier, he just doesn't get caught. It's hard to punish a kid who you can't prove did anything wrong. They are a pain and I could do with a bit less screen time for both of them, but I think they do demonstrate the normal American family.
I have to say at the beginning of the series I was all about Dani and Matt but Nico has started to grow on me. Give it about 2 more episodes of Nico being protective, dangerous, mysterious, and hella cute and I will be completely on Team Nico.
NICO!!! I am so glad I"m not the only one who thinks this =)
dr. dani needs to be with nico
I genuinely think it's cute that Dani and Matt have this thing going on between them, but I'd have to go with Nico.
I think the one night stand thing kind of gave Matt a somewhat shallow character and just look-at-me-I'm-pretty view of him that only makes you slightly curious; but Dani's ultimatum in the beginning kind of gives a standoff-ish vibe to the entire idea.
I have to say I'm also noticing an increase of interaction between Nico and Dani on-screen. Even with him not having much faith in her from the start, I think he's warming up to her.

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.

Obama in Israel for first trip as president
Ahead of Obama's visit, an Israeli Cabinet minister, Yuval Steinitz, said it is "apparently clear" that chemical weapons were recently used in Syria, and that the alleged attack will be a main topic of conversation with the president. The Obama administration said Tuesday it had no evidence to support the regime's claims that rebels were responsible for a chemical attack.
Obama has declared the use, deployment or transfer of the weapons would be a "red line" for possible military intervention by the U.S. in the Syrian conflict.
Before he even leaves Ben Gurion airport for the 45-minute helicopter flight to Jerusalem, Obama will stop to view an Iron Dome battery, part of the missile defense system that the United States has poured hundreds of millions dollars into developing. Israeli officials credit Iron Dome with significantly reducing the impact of rockets fired into its territory from militants in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon and don't want to see U.S. funding cut due to budget constraints.
Once in Jerusalem, a potent religious symbol as well as one of the main obstacles to an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal, Obama will make several cultural stops - to see some of the ancient Dead Sea Scrolls and pay tribute to the founder of modern Zionism - intended to show his appreciation for the Jewish people's millennia-old connection to the land that is now Israel as well as the horrors of the Holocaust. He will also visit the Church of Nativity, which is revered throughout Christiandom as the site where Jesus was born.
Obama will make an almost perfunctory visit to the cash-strapped Palestinian Authority's headquarters in the West Bank, where he will meet embattled Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to assure him that an independent Palestinian state remains a U.S. foreign policy and national security priority. Despite not coming with any new plan to get the stalled peace process back on track, Obama plans to make clear that his administration intends to keep trying to get talks relaunched.
Preventing Iran from developing a nuclear weapon and the Syrian crisis from spilling over into the broader region are top priorities of Israel and the United States, although they have differed in the past on precisely how to achieve both ends.
Iran, in particular, has been a vexing issue, as Iranian leaders continue to defy pressure from the U.S. and other world powers to prove that its nuclear program is peaceful and not, as many suspect, cover for atomic weapons developments.
Israel repeatedly has threatened to take military action should Iran appear to be on the verge of obtaining a bomb. The U.S. has pushed for more time to allow diplomacy and economic penalties to run their course, though Obama insists military action is an option.
But there are differences over a timeline for possible military action. Netanyahu, in a speech to the United Nations in September, said Iran was about six months away from being able to build a bomb. Obama said last week that the U.S. thinks it would take "over a year or so for Iran to actually develop a nuclear weapon."
Obama will close out his Mideast trip with a 24-hour stop in Jordan, an important U.S. ally, where his focus will be on the violence in Syria. More than 450,000 Syrians have fled to Jordan, crowding refugee camps and overwhelming aid organizations.
In his talks with Jordan's King Abdullah, Obama also will try to shore up the country's fledgling attempts to liberalize its government and stave off an Arab Spring-style movement similar to the ones that have taken down leaders elsewhere in the region.
Lee reported from Jerusalem.

Innovation in undergraduate biology education is constrained by medical school admission requirements and specifically by the MCAT exam. The committee recommends that an independent review of medical school admission requirements and testing be conducted in light of the rapidly changing nature of biological and biomedical research, and the consequent need to transform undergraduate science education.
The curricular demands placed on undergraduate programs by students who want to score well on the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) have a major impact on the curriculum and course content of all life science majors, especially at schools where the same courses are offered to premeds and those headed for research careers. This is especially true of the chemistry courses taken by the majority of life science majors. Most medical schools in the United States require applicants to have completed one year of general chemistry and one year of organic chemistry. In addition, satisfactory performance on the MCAT is a key admission requirement for medical school. Changes that would likely benefit both groups of students are limited by the need to prepare premedical students for medical school admission committees and the current format of the MCAT itself, although it is by no means clear that the current testing regime is particularly relevant to preparing future physicians of the 21st century. Indeed, premedical students constitute a substantial proportion of the next generation of biomedical researchers who will need to be leaders in the same dynamically changing landscape of biomedical research as life science majors. Medicine itself is becoming more interdisciplinary, and future physicians could also benefit from the interdisciplinary changes called for in this report.
A change in the MCAT itself, or in the way it is used for medical school admissions, would allow the biology curriculum to develop in a way that is beneficial to all students instead of allowing the content of the MCAT to dictate what students are taught.
Undergraduate biology education can be effectively transformed only through close and sustained collaboration between colleges, universities, government agencies, professional societies, and foundations. It is often assumed that once a useful pedagogical approach is identified, it will be reproducible, easy to disseminate, and simple for another faculty member

BB10 Hands on Bloomberg
RIM Blackberry 10 Gives User Balance, Bhardwaj Says: Video - Bloomberg
Holy smokes, BB10 is looking good! They also talk about the camera and a cool new feature. IMO this is the best look at BB10 so far.
RIM needs to advertise more, I had no idea BB10 was this good until I saw this video! What does everyone else think?

That is exactly the sort of Press that RIM wants to have!
..They ONLY need to deliver on the Apps and they will for sure nail it!A reluctant iPhone 4s user who would STILL be a Blackberry user had RIM not messed it's own bed by putting a "Fisher Price Camera" in it's "flagship" Blackberry Bold 9930.

My thoughts exactly. With features like this and all of the ones we have not yet seen plus all of the apps, this phone is definitely going to be a winner. Sure there are going to be people that are going to nit pick ever little thing/issue, but no phone is absolutely perfect. Coming from all of the other berries I have owned in the past, to this, and I will gladly take it. I am sure it is going to have a few little quirks here and there along the way, or even somethings that I would like to see different, but this phone is really very fluid in all ways. Put it to you this way, this for sure is going to be the best BB that I will ever own. This looks to have everything anyone would ask for or want in a communication device

Am I to old???
- 0Aug 13, '04 by paulclark911Hi, I would like your thoughts, I am 49, have been a paramedic for the past 25 years, I want to take the ADN program at a local collage, 2 year course. I am really getting burned out with EMS and feel I need a change. Its not the money so much I make more in EMS after 25 years than I would starting out as a nurse. But I really would love to be an RN. Yesterday I was in the OR doing intubations, I hadn't had a field arrest in a while and the Command Doc, wanted me to go. I was very impressed with the nurses. I can't get in to a class until next fall but am looking for advice, I don't think I can continue in EMS much longer but feel I still love taking care of the sick and injuried. Now my wife may try to talk me out of going to nursing school, (she is an RN) but I will still need to work for 15 more years. I think nursing is more secure and my wife and I could go any where and work, what do you think should I try it or apply at Wal-Mary? Thanks Paul
- 0Aug 13, '04 by live4todaypaul....do you have a pulse? if you do........you are not too old to try anything your heart desires. age should not deter anyone from pursuing a career choice they would like to enter to. "too late" is after your pulse stops beating. go for it! :hatparty:

Especially if you want to work ER! Maybe you and your wife could be travelling nurses before you retire, I have a friend who does that with her husband and they have been all over and looove it....Good luck to you! Ruthie
