Discussion in 'RayGator's Swamp Gas' started by Jstewie15, Jul 13, 2013.
Agreed. How aboutToledo +21.5?
Even better. But I could never hedge, too invested in gators
I will be. Gator games have turned below average gambling years into decent years the last two...
Be curious to see what the over under will be. If the number is 50 or higher, I will be unloading on the under
34 days....man that's nothing! Time will flew by....and then we will say bye bye...to our victims!
I understand where you're coming from, but think of it this way:
How much would you willingly PAY to have the Gators win by over 21.5? Would you pay a dollar? I sure as hell would! So bet a dollar on Toledo +21.5. If the Gators win by over 21.5, you lose a dollar, but you can just tell yourself that you paid a dollar to see the Gators win big!
Obviously, in bets like these you have to find your "sweet spot". I could NEVER bet an amount that would cause me to root for the Gators to not do well. The beauty about a 21.5 point spread in this case is that the Gators could win 28-7 or 35-14, still dominate, and you would get some money AND a great Gator win.
On the flip side of this, I will never, ever bet on a team playing against the Gators when the Gators are underdogs. Imagine if you bet some money on the other team at -7 and they only won by 3. That's a double loss!!!!
I pretty much agree, and follow that line of logic.
Let me be clear... I don't do this very often... As I said earlier, I am a gator info freak. I know this time 1000 times better than I know anyone else... Even with all the research on opponents I do. It creates quite the edge....the beginning of the year is when lines are weakest as well.
Can't bet a nickel I always want gators in a blowout...but I am rational on the lines.. Unlike most on here that think we will blowout everybody...
Its not that...I think most of us cant fathom a point in a game where we may feel the need to hope Florida doesnt score. Lets say the spread is 26....we line up for a late FG that would put Florida up by 28, I could never root one of our kids to miss. I think thats the real issue we face.

You say it's not that and then echo sentiments exactly????
Sorry. I quoted the wrong post...lol.

You must not be laying that much down then. :grin:
If I bet a Gator game, I have a decent chunk on it(at least 250$). Meaning, I see a big line advantage. I won't do it for just small advantages.
never bet against the Gators in any sport with or without points.
The last time I participated in a March Madness pool was when we lost to Michigan State in the final in 2000 and I had the Gators win the entire thing.
32 days............:dog:
Great work Tilly. Thanks!
Well it seems the facts turnet our rocket into a crickett. *chirp chirp*

No. I just don't feel like wasting my time on here anymore.
So Toledo actually has fans?!?!... Wow! Learn something new everyday.

If this was anyone elses blog i would say they were slightly exaggerating but having travelled with you for a month i actually believe every word of it, you dumbass. The mozzies are pretty bad here in Guilin aswell so tell Erica she would have been done eitherway. Saw some unreal rice fields today though which kind of makes up for having to spend 60 euros on another visa to get back into China again. Hope tomorrow works out even better for ye!!!!!!!!!

Where I stayed
We got dropped off at Hong Kong Airport and meandered in to find the Cebu Pacific desk. We casually wandered over to the desk and explained we wanted to check the bags through as we had another flight and we were told this was not possible. We were asked for proof of our onward flight out of the Philippines (Steve had obviously warned us to make sure we booked something but we knew better and ignored him). "Unfortunately Sir we are not allowed to check you in without evidence of departure from the country"
Cebu Pacific are not only very cheap but a pretty cool airline for several reasons. They claim to be the only international airline to play games throughout the journey to win prizes. Its a bit like a pub quiz really. So for the one and a half hour flight we did a bit of blogging and a bit of playing. We were also given the luxury of emergency exit seats. What a privilege? Well after sitting down we were approached by the stewardess who confirmed we would be responsible for a number of tasks in an emergency situation, to remove the emergency exit door turn it around and discard it out of the door, we then needed to inflate the emergency exit slide, Erica would slide to the bottom and stabilise the slide while I ensured the remaining passengers removed footware before using the slide
Upon landing we were about 5 minutes late so before the seatbelt signs had gone off I was in the overhead locker trying to fight my way to the front. We got off the plane and sprinted to immigration and passport control. Needless to say whilst breathless we were first to the desks and there was no queue. Straight through and sprint to the baggage hall, after only a couple of minutes the baggage belt started and we were about 5th bag off. We then ran through customs and out of arrivals into departures. I had a baggage trolley that I just threw on an escalator. About half way up it sliped and fell back onto me. We then sprinted to the check in desk where the queue had been blocked off. We pushed our way to the front to see the most laid back attitude. Check in closed 45 minutes before take off. We finally got checked in with about 20 minutes to take off. Sprinted to a desk where we had to pay a departure tax, with no currency we had to run back to a cash machine, "Card not recognised" we then had to run back to another area of the airport to a currency exchange where we threw 40 of our USDollar and probably got stung for I dont know how much
The plane was filled with what appeared to be dry ice (this happened once in India as well), people were trying to waft the stuff away as the plane took off and the cabin filled up, lots of peolpe were also coughing too. After a few more quizes and prize givings and blogging we landed in Cebu to another bumpy and swaying landing. We got off the plane to a baggage claim full of people from outside the airport. We wandered over through the taxi touts and eventually found the meter taxi rank and headed to the Cebu Guest House. We are definitly out of 'the developing world' of China and back into the the real developing world, children begging at the car and dirty streets. Can't wait to get to the island. thankfully the hostel has wifi and the blog is now up to date. After 8 cans of San Miguel for about 25 peso's each (40p'ish) including two Ice strongs a bat flew into the room and attached itself to the smoke alarm. This had definitely not happened at Chez Tunstall. Oh and there are lots and lots of mozzies. Erica alert.
Not a great first impression of the Philippines but we are looking forward to getting to the island of Malapascua tomorrow.
Post your own travel photos for friends and family More Pictures
Pleased you enjoyed your time in HK. Welcome back whenever you're passing.
ps: you forgot the kids
pps: we don't have any smoke detectors, that's why
ppps: that's a can not a bottle, can't fool me. Will follow rest of the adventure with interest, bon voyage

This whistle came from a separate mailing. It's like every train whistle ever, but with the Spirit Tracks logo on it! Helpfully, it's also labeled "TRAIN WHISTLE" in case you see a weird wooden block in your house and don't know what it is.
It's really a lovely treasure chest, though if it's to scale, the biggest surprise of the whole series is that Link's really about 3 feet tall.
The treasure chest was equipped with a speaker to play, of course, the trademark jingle from the game. Which it did, the twelfth time or so that I opened the thing. Also, that confetti stuff left green dust all over the game, my hands, and my desk.
Link t-shirt (in men's L, in case you were wondering). Not bad!

Angry boyfriend....
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 08-19-2011 - 9:33am
I have been dating my boyfriend for a little over 6 months now. Everything was great for a while. REALLY great. But, I'm starting to see a different side of him. I still love him whole heartedly, but his attitude and anger problems are starting to get to me. And I don't know how to deal with it.
|Fri, 08-19-2011 - 10:58am
"And like he always does, he turned it on me"
alana, you are six months into this relationship and you have to start thinking in terms of "am I able to walk away from this relationship if it's not good for me?"
You ALWAYS have to be willing to leave if things start to go bad this early. It sounds like his temper is not a one-time deal. He blames you and becomes out of control. You say everything was "REALLY great" for a while. That's how all relationships start, alana. In the first few months, a great relationship is INDISTINGUISHIBLE from a bad one. Now you're seeing that your relationship is not what you hoped. Men with scary tempers and anger problems are to be avoided, at all costs. I really hope you will do the right thing and free yourself from this man before things get worse. These problems do not go away.
|Fri, 08-19-2011 - 11:19am
I only had to read the first paragraph of your post to know what I would find further down.
|Fri, 08-19-2011 - 11:25am
Dating is all about knowing a person and you have seen him. Continue if you like or leave if you dont.
|Fri, 08-19-2011 - 11:29am
Sometimes I feel that my boyfriend has bipolar disorder. Both his father and his brother have it. I so badly want to talk to him about it and help him, but I don't bring up in fear of him getting angry. After every argument we have, I ask him if we can just sit down and talk instead of losing our temper next time. And it just never sticks with him. I feel like he can't control his anger whatsoever. Did you ever try talking to your ex about his anger? How did it turn out? Because I am always so tempted to bring it up to him, but I'm not sure how it will turn out.
|Fri, 08-19-2011 - 4:54pm
6 MONTHS of dating this guy - it is so NOT your responsibility to help him figure out his anger issues, and guess what? Trying to talk to him about his problem, which he will probably deny having, will most likely make him angry....
I know, because you're already in the habit of forgiving him again and again, that you will be stubborn and try to fix this. The only person you can change is yourself. And you are changing - into someone who will take the emotional and mental abuse to stay with a guy who they've only known for 6 months.
Please remove yourself from this relationship - it isn't healthy, and could lead to more serious abuse. You shouldn't have to walk on eggshells - a real partner is one you can be your true self around, who you don't have to change for to be with, but makes you want to be the best version of yourself. This guy is already trampling on you and your confidence. He is already putting you in situations where you have to accept the blame for his emotional issues.
And you know what? You do know on some level that you don't want this in your life. You're just afraid of doing what's best for YOU, because you feel it would be giving up on HIM. But the only person you can save is YOU, not HIM. He is his own burden. And YOU cannot carry that for him. The only thing you CAN do, is walk away, and begin to repair the damage he's done to you. For you to be "handling" this so early in a relationship, is to be hooked, and it will take effort to unhook yourself.
|Fri, 08-19-2011 - 9:46pm
Since bipolar does run in families, I wouldn't be surprised if he had it too. I wonder--do his dad & brother get treatment & take medication or do they just continue the reign of terror?

Final Project
The final project has two options: visualization demo design or software tool design. The basic idea of the two directions is the same which is to collect some scientific data and visualize them. The demo design mainly focuses on the visual animations, 2D/3D graphics, video making, and computer vision based visualization techniques. The tool design is mainly to design and implement a visualization tool that can analyze the data with any kind of visualization concepts or formats, summarize some useful results/conclusions, answer questions, and provide suggestions or comments. The data should be real data, which can be either collected by individual or borrowed from somewhere (with permission and acknowledgement). Students can use any API or programming language they like. Students can work on the project by themselves or team up with other students in the class. The team members cannot be more than two.
To grade the final project, three aspects will be considered. 1) proposal presentation (20%) on Oct. 26; 2) final project presentation (30%) on Dec. 2 and 7; 3) final project report and software package (50%) on Dec. 9. Late submission without instructor's permission may not be considered. Typically, we do not anticipate that the grades for each team member will be different. However, we reserve the right to assign different grades to each team member if the efforts or contributions they make are apparently different and unbalanced. Bonus points may be earned if the project shows significant novelty and large potentials for real-world applications. Those projects may get our guidance for further paper publications.
Proposals and Reports
Please consider following contents when you prepare for your proposals and final reports:
The presentation slides, the final report and software package should be submitted to email@example.com on time.

Best Golfing Indoors Denver 2010 - Swingers
9535 Park Meadows Drive
Littleton, CO 80124
Golf is big in Colorado, but it's hard to play in the winter. And sometimes, well, an air-conditioned bar full of beer and burgers beats the checkered pants off the green. In that case, Swingers' sports lounge makes for a good compromise. The upscale joint has state-of-the-art golf simulators that allow virtual duffers to play eighteen holes in under an hour — on one of more than fifty championship golf courses. Thirty bucks gets you an hour of play ($7.50 each if you've got a foursome). Call ahead to reserve a tee time.

It's 5 o'clock somewhere, and somewhere else, people are bent on dancing 'til 6 in the morning. On that note, here are four epic parties to count down to this weekend. Visit SF Station's Event Calendar for a full list of events. [soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/79649924″…
Decibel Festival in Seattle is once again gearing up to bring the West Coast the most riveting faces in contemporary music and digital media.
Recently announced, SF's own Icee Hot promoters have been busy gathering their resources to put together a record label of the same name.
At the end of April, former San Francisco residents, Lando Kal and Low Limit, have put out their second full length as Lazer Sword on Modeselektor's Monkeytown imprint.
This Saturday, April 21, Public Works, Icee Hot, and As You Like It come together to welcome techno legend Jeff Mills.
As the latest addition to the Fabric series, Levon Vincent's Fabric 63 is set for release next month on Tuesday, May 22. In anticipation, Fabric has put the mix up on their Soundcloud for streaming.
This Saturday, March 24, Ice Hot and Public Works come together with a line up headlined by acclaimed deep house producer, Nina Kraviz.
Icee Hot's 2 year anniversary is right around the corner, and this month the crew are happy to present UK house-centric artists, Mosca and Altered Natives.
The holidays are quickly approaching – shop and dance, celebrate with local music venues and enjoy the company of friends before the madness hits.
This weekend is an adventure for the city's party animals and we're ready to dance our way through it all. Skrillex and Deadmau5 might be sold out but there's way more fun to have in SF the next 5 days as we dress up and…
While everyone's away in the playa, the Bay Area will still party hard with a lengthy list of solid dance events for your weekend including Kreayshawn's afterparty, a one-of-a-kind Blow Up Forever night at The Factory, and a steamy R&B dance night on Sunday!


text: I have been asked to make a half sheet cake for a friends wedding shower. Do you typically have 2 layers in a half sheet cake? Also, I have no idea how much I should charge. I usually only do cakes for family so this is new to me. They are going to have around 80 people at this shower and only have $50.00 to spend. I normally make the WASC cake I found here for my cakes. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I thought about getting the Cakeulator but I'm not sure about it.

Brian Beaulieu - Economy 2020 - Prosperity in the Age of Decline
Entertaining and informative, this session will be a guide for protecting your wealth in an age of turbulent business cycles. Brian will reveal what it will take for individual investors and business leaders to prosper as the economy heats up prior to the predicted downturn, preserve wealth in the upcoming Great Depression, and profit on the way out of the depression. The imbalances and maladjustments have a while to play out and Brian will pinpoint the investment opportunities to be had in the countdown period.
Game Changer Interview
A Conversation with Roberto Vedovotto, CEO Kering Eyewear
Kering, the conglomerate that owns a stable of brands, including Gucci, Balanciago, Bottega Venetta, Stella McCartney, and Puma announced this fall that they would create their own global eyewear distribution company and take all of their brands in-house, ending their licenses with the industry's traditional licensees, including Safilo, Luxottica, and Charmant. How will that change the licensing model that has driven most of the biggest eyewear providers today? What are the dynamics that has led to this disruption? What is the vision of the importance of fashion brands to the eyewear industry? And what is the eyewear business impact on brands? Roberto Vedovotto, a former CEO of Safilo, is leading this seismic shift for Kering. We will hear his thoughts in conversation with Executive Summit Chair, Mike Hundert, CEO of REM Eyewear.

Now Playing
AT#320 - Travel to Lanai
The Amateur Traveler talks about traveling to the Hawaiian Island of Lana'i. I recently spent a week in Lana'i as a guest of the Lana'i Visitor's Bureau as one of their 2012 "Artists in Residence". Lana'i only has 3,000 residence and a small town feel. I talk about some of the more unusual (for me at least) activities that I tried on the Island including riding a horse, going on a ride and shoot (to Lana'i Pines Sporting Clays), snubing, learning to play the ukulele, getting a lomi lomi massage, volunteering at a cat sanctuary and going 4 wheel drive tour. You don't have to do this much when you go to Lan'i. You could also just golf or lie on the beach.

Good Afternoon,
I am seeking an EDC alternative to the Zero Tolerance with speed safe, I believe the model is 0350 with a stone washed blade. I am seeking a knife with a thick/strong blade, less than 3.5 inches in length, stone wash blade, speed assist, non tanto blade, and under $120. I would really go for a emerson but I can't find a blade that I like. For general EDC, a tanto blade does not work for me. I work in a retail environment and like the drop point or similar blade configurations. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Thanks for your assistance.

Breeders' Cup: Classic fave Uncle Mo comes back from the near-dead
By lew freedman For Sun-Times Media November 3, 2011 8:30PM
Updated: December 6, 2011 8:20AM
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Horses only get one shot at the Kentucky Derby, but the Breeders' Cup is Uncle Mo's second chance at Churchill Downs months after his owner wondered if the 3-year-old would live this long, never mind run again.
The favorite in May's Run for the Roses was a late withdrawal because of a mysterious ailment, but Uncle Mo has found new momentum and is the 5-2 favorite to win Saturday's 28th annual $5 million, 1¼-mile Breeders' Cup Classic.
The richest card in thoroughbred racing will send 179 horses after 15 championships and $26 million in prize money Friday and Saturday and much of the attention will be on Uncle Mo.
It took three veterinarians, plus specialists, to determine that Uncle Mo did not have ulcers or stomach cancer, but a rare liver disease called cholangiohepititis that sounds as much like a mountain in the Himalayas as a diagnosis.
"I didn't know if I would ever see him again," said owner Mike Repole during the horse's examinations.
It was weeks before it was apparent the illness wasn't life-threatening and Uncle Mo could train. That was Todd Pletcher's job and the horse notched a superb victory in the Kelso Handicap at Belmont Park in October.
"For him to come back this quickly to race, it's amazing," Repole said. Uncle Mo has gained nearly 190 pounds to 1,250 in recent months by eating, yes, like a horse.
If Uncle Mo falters, Repole's own Stay Thirsty or Havre de Grace, a winner of $2.2 million, could contend. Havre de Grace, victor in the Woodward Stakes, will make the race co-ed, going against the boys.
Female horses are major players here. Plum Pretty, winner of the Kentucky Oaks in May and trained by Bob Baffert, is entered in the 11/8-mile $2 million Ladies Classic on Friday.
And 6-year-old mare Goldikova, a legend in France, competing for the final time in Saturday's $1 million Dirt Mile, will try to add to her nearly $7 million in earnings. Goldikova is pursuing an unprecedented fourth consecutive Mile victory.

Pridelanders are the inhabitants of the Pride Lands who are ruled by a reigning monarch. The term "Pridelander" is originally used by Kovu in the sequel when he demands to know Kiara's identity.
The Pridelanders have been ruled by multiple kings and queens, including Mohatu, Ahadi and Uru, Mufasa and Sarabi, Scar, and currently, Simba and Nala. When Simba dies or abdicates his powers as king, the Pride Lands will be ruled by Kiara and her consort, Kovu.
Common Physical Traits
- Orange or Red eyes are common among the Pridelanders, with orange eyes being seen more often than red. While Sarabi and Simba boast orange eyes, Mufasa's are deep red.
- Stocky builds separate these lionesses, even the lean Sarafina-esque ones, from the Outsiders. They are usually heavily built.
- Colored paws and uncolored paws are equally common among the Pridelanders.
- Pridelander noses are dominant in the pride. These noses, unlike the Outsider noses, which curve downward, are flat and rounded.
Lesser Physical Traits
- Freckles is a very rare trait for a Pridelander. Only one lioness has been observed with freckles.
- Ear rims are recessive among the Pridelanders. Sarabi is the only named lioness to sport them.
- Outsider traits, such as downward-curved noses and permanently extended claws, are not common, with only Scar and Kovu possessing them.
- Permanently extended claws have only been observed in Scar.
- Green and blue eyes have been observed in both Sarafina and Scar, who have green, as well as Nala, whose eyes alternate between green and blue.
- Colored paw pads are a rare trait. Only Scar's paw pads are completely colored. Everyone else in the pride has only their toes colored.
Types of Lionesses
Throughout the film series, the lionesses appear to look the same, but some resemble the more prominent lionesses in the pride.
Sarabi-esque Lionesses
The main pride is comprised of many different types of lionesses. One of these types mimics Sarabi, the mate of Mufasa. In the original film, they aren't seen during the first act when Simba and Nala are still cubs. However, they completely dominate the pride toward the end of the film. They also make a brief appearance in the second film following the exile of Kovu.
Sarafina-esque Lionesses
These types of lionesses are lighter, sleeker, and leaner than the heavier ones encountered at the end of the first film. They resemble Nala and her mother Sarafina with little to no differences. Among the books, the comics, and the other films, as well, these kind of lionesses are seen. However, toward the end of the first film, they seem to have been replaced by the heavier Sarabi-esque lionesses.
Kiara-esque Lionesses
The lionesses of the pride are mainly absent during this movie, but when they do appear, they usually resemble the young adult Kiara. These lionesses are first seen before "One of Us," blocking Kiara from Kovu as the princess tries to prevent the Outsider from being exiled. During the war, they appear again at the very end when Kiara and Kovu stand up to their respective parents.
- "Last chance, Zira. Go home."
- ―Simba to Zira
The main Pridelanders are a group of lionesses whose only role within the films comes when a conflict arises to which they are forced into defending one another, evident by the Outsiders declaring war first and the Pridelanders simply meeting them head-on. Even then, their leader Simba gives Zira one last chance to go home.
The Lion King
Pridelanders are first seen during the "Circle of Life" sequence at the start of the film. As Mufasa and Sarabi nuzzle each other, lionesses watch from the shadows of Pride Rock, delighted that their new prince is about to be anointed.
They are later seen resting near Pride Rock as young Simba comes racing to get his mother and appear again during Scar's eulogy, during which they grieve the double losses of their king and prince. Their mourning is soon shattered when Scar welcomes his hyena minions into the Pride Lands, and the lionesses are helpless to watch as their kingdom is swarmed by scavengers.
Years later, the pride has noticeably dwindled, with only a few members remaining, and prey is scarce, prompting the exhausted lionesses to cease hunting for Scar. Angered at their lack of activity, Scar challenges Sarabi, who rebukes him as king, and he strikes her, prompting a full-grown Simba, who has been watching from the shadows, to run to his mother's aid.
With Simba at their head, the small band of Pridelanders return, showing their disloyalty to Scar. A battle for Pride Rock soon begins, and the lionesses fight in favor of Simba. Following the defeat of Scar, the lionesses watch joyfully as Simba ascends Pride Rock, and every lioness roars her approval as he takes back his father's throne.
The Lion King II: Simba's Pride
Pridelanders make their first appearance when Simba challenges Zira, whose son Kovu has encountered the princess of the Pride Lands and Simba's only daughter, Kiara. Two Pridelanders join Simba and Nala in challenging Zira, who attempts to win her way back into the Pride Lands, but Simba stands firm, and the added bulk of the Pridelanders convinces Zira to walk away peacefully.
Pridelanders are later seen at the onset of Kiara's first hunt, during which they express confidence in their future queen, and can be seen later that night, entering the royal den while Kovu is intimidated away from the entrance. Not long after this, Simba believes Kovu to have betrayed him, and the Pridelanders assist their king in exiling him from the Pridelanders.
During the film's climax, the Pridelanders follow Simba into battle against the Outsiders. The pride is seen fighting fiercely against their foes, holding their own despite the obvious strength among the Outsiders. Toward the end of the battle, they realize the error of their ways and welcome the Outsiders back into the pride.
At the very end of the film, they gather at Pride Rock for the union of Kovu and Kiara. Once the two are married, they bow their heads in respect as their monarchs stride past and roar out over their kingdom.
|Mufasa is the king of the Pride Lands at the onset of the first film. He presides over the Pride Lands during one of its most prosperous periods.
|Scar is the younger brother of Mufasa who murders the king and banished the heir, Simba, in order to usurp the throne.
|Sarabi is the betrothal of Mufasa who later becomes his queen. She is the leader of the pride's hunting party.
|Sarafina is presumably a member of Sarabi's hunting party.
|Simba is the only son of Mufasa and Sarabi. He defeats the evil tyrant Scar in order to restore peace to his father's kingdom and take his rightful place as the king of the Pride Lands.
|Nala is the betrothal of Simba who later becomes his queen.
|Kiara is the only daughter of Simba and Nala. She is the first known queen regnant of the Pride Lands.
|Kovu is a former Outsider who betrays his leader Zira in order to bring about peace. He is the prince consort of Kiara.
|Prince Consort
|Vitani is a former Outsider who betrays her leader Zira in order to bring about peace. She has since been accepted into the Pride Lands.
- The lionesses are responsible for providing the pride with prey.[1]
- In some concepts, the Pridelanders believe in a deity called the Great Spirit.[2]
- In King of the Jungle, the Pridelanders are called the Ndona Pride.[3]

Claude of France (13 October 1499[1] – 20 July 1524) was queen consort of France and duchess regnant of Brittany. She was the eldest daughter of Louis XII of France and Anne of Brittany, as well as the first spouse of Francis I of France.
Queen Claude was named after Claudius of Besançon, a saint her mother had invoked during a pilgrimage so she could give birth to a living child.
Because her mother, Anne, Duchess of Brittany, had no surviving sons, Claude became heiress to the Duchy of Brittany. The crown of France, however, could pass only to and through male heirs, according to Salic Law. In 1504, Anne, eager to keep Brittany separate from the French crown, effected the Treaty of Blois, which promised Claude's hand in marriage to the future Holy Roman Emperor Charles V with the promise of Brittany and the Duchy of Burgundy. The prospect of a reduced France surrounded on several sides was unacceptable to the Valois, and so the betrothal was soon canceled.
The French nobles argued against a betrothal to a foreigner, urging Louis XII to marry Claude to her cousin Francis, Duke of Angoulême, "who is at least all French", and was also the heir-presumptive to the French crown. In 1506, the child was betrothed to Francis. In 1514, when her mother died, Claude became Duchess of Brittany; and on 18 May 1514, at Saint-Germain-en-Laye, she married Francis.
Claude, the pawn of so much dynastic maneuvering, was short in stature and afflicted with scoliosis, which gave her a hunched back. She was eclipsed at court by her mother-in-law, Louise of Savoy, and her sister-in-law, the literary Navarrese queen Margaret of Angoulême.
When Francis became king in 1515, after the death of Louis XII mere months after his wedding to Mary Tudor of England, Anne Boleyn stayed on as one of Claude's household. It is assumed that Anne served as Claude's translator whenever there were English visitors, such as in 1520, at the Field of Cloth of Gold. Anne Boleyn returned to England in late 1521, where she eventually became Queen of England as the second wife of Henry VIII. Diane de Poitiers, another of Claude's ladies, was a principal inspiration of the School of Fontainebleau of the French Renaissance, and became the lifelong mistress of Claude's son, Henry II.
Claude's life was spent in an endless round of annual pregnancies. Her husband had many mistresses, but was usually relatively discreet. Claude imposed a strict moral code on her own household, which only a few chose to flout.
Claude and Francis I had seven children, two of whom lived past the age of thirty:
Claude died in 1524, when she was twenty-four. She was initially succeeded as ruler of Brittany by her eldest son, the Dauphin Francis, who became Duke Francis III, with Claude's widower King Francis I as guardian. After the Dauphin's death in 1536, Claude's second son, Henry, Duke of Orleans, became Dauphin and Duke of Brittany. He later became King of France as Henry II.
Claude's widowed husband himself remarried several years after Claude's death, to Eleanor of Austria, the sister of Emperor Charles V. The atmosphere at court became considerably more debauched, and there were rumours that King Francis's death in 1547 was due to syphilis.
The prayer book of Claude of France, is a tiny, jewel-like manuscript that was made for Claude around 1517, the year she was crowned queen of France. Her coat of arms appears on three different folios. The book is richly illustrated: the borders of each leaf are painted, front and back, with 132 scenes from the lives of Christ, the Virgin Mary, and numerous saints. The manuscript and a companion Book of Hours also made for the queen (in a Paris private collection) were illuminated by an artist who was given the nickname Master of Claude de France after these two volumes. It was donated to The Morgan Library & Museum in New York City in 2008 by the widow of Alexandre Paul Rosenberg in memory of her husband.[2]
Claude is remembered in a classic small plum, the size of a walnut, pale green with a glaucous bloom. It is still called "Reine Claude" (literally, "Queen Claude") in France and is known in England as a "greengage".
Queen Claude of France is played by Gabriella Wright in season one of the Showtime series The Tudors.
"Kind Queen Claude" is a major character in Robin Maxwell's Mademoiselle Boleyn.

Hi stranger, my name is Juliet, I'm 21. I have big dreams, and I'm not going to stop them because i messed up, if i mess up I'm going to be there and stand right back up and try again and again till i get to where i want to be. Life is hard, and life will knock you down more than once for sure. I'm extremely sarcastic and I lose trust in people easily and they don't really get it back no matter how much it seems like it. I think that I am a little hater person, sometimes, but I'm nice.

After suffering what turned out to be a torn anterior cruciate ligament in last week's reward challenge on Survivor, James Clement seemed like a dead man walking. With four immunity-challenge losses to the Villains tribe, the last thing the Heroes needed was to keep an injured player. However, thanks to his strong alliance within the tribe, James was saved and Tom Westman was eliminated. Unfortunately, even after Colby Donaldson made a speech to the Heroes tribe about his impending exit, James was the one voted out because of his knee injury. The 32-year-old Clement spoke with TVGuide.com about Colby's lackadaisical attitude, his argument with Stephenie LaGrossa and who he thinks is the "Kareem Abdul-Jabbar of Survivor."
As a Survivor hero, Tom Westman seemed to have it all: great physical ability, a strong social game and $1 million from winning Survivor: Palau. Unfortunately for the 46-year-old former firefighter, the last factor proved to be his undoing. After using a hidden immunity idol to save himself during last week's tribal council, Tom had his torch put out when the opposing alliance proved too big to defeat. As Tom said, "I was not going quietly into the dark night so they needed to get rid of me." The fallen hero spoke with TVGuide.com about why he was sent home, his predictions for ally Colby and the reason he almost didn't return for Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains...read more
Cirie Fields of Survivor: Panama and Survivor: Micronesia is living proof of the importance of the social game in Survivor. Although she never stood out in physical challenges, the 39-year-old made it far on both seasons thanks to her close observations, smart alliances and manipulative skills. Unfortunately, Cirie's Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains tribe mates were on to her from the very beginning, and it only took three votes to send her home after Tom played his immunity idol and teamed with Colby and J.T. to send her home. Cirie talked with TVGuide.com about the blind-side vote, J.T.'s flip, and her tribe's many "alpha males...read more

After two brutal immunity challenges loses and two dramatic tribal councils, the heroes of Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains are beginning to look less, well, heroic. Despite her alliance with Tom and Colby, Stephenie LaGrossa couldn't save herself from the wrath of Rupert and James. "It's a game, and you want to win, but you want to enjoy your experience out there, because it's miserable as it is," she told TVGuide.com. "And being around people like James and Rupert really did make it unbearable."
Following last night's heated tribal council and her early exit, the 29-year-old also discussed what went wrong during the immunity challenge, the deep divisions within the heroes tribe, and her and Tom's now-defunct plan to...

Two years ago on Survivor: Gabon, Jessica "Sugar" Kiper made it to the final three, thanks in part to the large amount of time she spent on Exile Island. Not only did she find an important hidden immunity idol on the island, but she was able to peacefully remove herself from the competition and make it to the finals without any aggressive strategy. On Survivor: Heroes and Villains, she wasn't so lucky, becoming the first castoff of the new season after getting too close for comfort with some of her fellow Heroes (namely a very irritated Colby). Sugar talked with TVGuide.com about her supposed flirtation with Colby, her emotion after losing the immunity challenge and her failed alliances...

Survivor aficionados know there's a certain lingo that goes along with the show. For some it's comforting, for others, mind-numbingly repetitive. Me? I like it. Jeff's catchphrases are a constant that I can rely on each week as the number of castaways dwindles. That said...First things first: We couldn't move on from last week's show without finishing up Billy's love story. Back at camp, Aitu continued to dismiss the love, and the next day, after the tribes merged, Cecilia went directly to Candice to get the scoop. Needless to say, this love was one-sided. Again, I cannot wait for the reunion show.With that cleared up, Jeff uttered those three little words that change the game every single time. Drop your buffs! That's right, segregation is over. Survivor put as much effort into contriving the makeup of these two new tribes as they did with the first four. Grab a tile from the bag, do a schoolyard pick, but only choose a person who has yet to be represented on your new team. Squeeze...

text: Canadian Grand Prix: Seven from seven on the cards 5 June, 2012 Click track map to enlarge Jun.5 (Preview by James Rossi) This weekend marks an opportunity for F1 to continue breaking records, as the competition vies to produce a seventh different winner from a seventh race. The Canadian Grand Prix is renowned for providing exciting races against stunning backdrops, and Sunday promises to be no different. With a number of top drivers still to win a race in 2012- Lewis Hamilton, Kimi Raikkonen, Romain Grosjean, Felipe Massa and perhaps even the Sauber pair all capable of victory should the planets and stars align correctly – there is a very real possibility that the 'different winners' record streak will continue. It's anybody's game as we head into the seventh round of the 2012 world championship with 'seven from seven' very much on the cards. The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve is renowned for being hard on tyres and brakes and as such an air of unpredictability hangs over the event. Championship leaders Red Bull have never won around the Canadian circuit, but head into the race in a strong position. The champions of last year must be considered a favourable bet for the victory. McLaren however have struggled with high tyre wear on abrasive surfaces, as evidenced in Bahrain and Catalunya. The car that seems to deal best with tyre wear whilst maintaining race-winning pace continues to be the Lotus. Kimi Raikkonen and Romain Grosjean have been feted as possible grand prix winners all year now, but along with Mercedes, seem to have been prematurely heralded as grand prix victors. On the subject of possible grand prix winners, it would be wise to consider the case of Lewis Hamilton. He has gained pole position twice around the Canadian track and is rarely outpaced in Montreal. If a McLaren is going to be victorious on Sunday, it would be a surprise to see Jenson Button atop the podium, despite his impressive victory in difficult conditions last year. Lewis Hamilton and Mark Webber tango in the rain last year Fernando Alonso continues to lead the championship, despite the relative lack of pace from Ferrari this season, the mercurial Spaniard is showing why he is considered to be the complete F1 driver. It's hard to gauge the pace of Ferrari's 2012 challenger due to the performance of Felipe Massa. The Brazilian has consistently underwhelmed amidst rumours that he will be replaced, which surface at almost every grand prix weekend. It really is anybody's game, although the clever bets will be on those who can maintain tyres for all 69 laps on Sunday. Mercedes' use of the super DRS should see them come close to pole position on Saturday, with two long straights to make use of. The weather is expected to be unsettled all week long, with rain clearing away for Sunday's main event. Montreal's DRS zone will be reduced to just one section; the long back straight leading into the final chicane. Smooth, calculated racing is the name of the game this weekend. Step up the perennial dark horses… My prediction Qualifying: 1. Schumacher 2. Hamilton 3. Alonso Race: 1. Hamilton 2. Alonso 3. Vettel Subbed by AJN. Tweet Related NewsWolff: I still have trauma from MontrealFIA confirm Perez responsible for shunt with MassaMassa: I will not trust Perez anymoreForce India seek to overturn Perez penaltySmedley out of order in Montreal says HeadMercedes: Now we know the limitsRicciardo now a serious title contender?Mercedes: Canada was a good wake up callFormula 1 united in praise for RicciardoRaikkonen: Very difficult to understand what is going on george Come on the Iceman!!!it's your time now…Lotus better get their race strategy right this time ovii Schumacher shld win ths time…………!!!!!!!!!! Benny George My prediction Qualifying: 1. Schumacher 2. Rosberg 3. Hamilton Race: 1. Schumacher 2. Button 3. Hamilton Rabih I hope it will be Schumacher's turn,7th gp 7times world champion ina the car No.7,will be the 7th deiffernet winner so far this season msc_3169 Montreal should suit Mercedes fine….If merc can give schumi a good(reliable) car then win no 92 or podium no 155 is definately on the cards Sit back and enjoy ride me sideways would love to see a kobayashi win hillside get this win der miestahhh! Nemo As much as i would like to see Schuey or even Kimi win. I will be predicting hamilton to win @ Montreal. His record there for wins, poles, podiums has been pretty good over the years. Sure Schuey has won it 7times!, but I dont think their car would be quick enough….unless it rains fools rain or shine. Alonso for WDC on pace! javalocco let's see how "seven" is schumacher in Canada. 1. he already won 7 times in giles villeneuve 2. as we know he is 7 times world champion 3. he get number 7 in mercedes 4. can i put his age here? 43, that is 4+3=7 5. canada grand prix is 7th series this season. if he win in canada it will make him 7th winner this season He must win, and will be, to make 7 his lucky number!! Hawk @Nemo that Mercedes is a very good car, make no mistakes about it, esp in Nico's hands. I would hv given it to Lewis bt with the super soft in play I'm not so sure. I wonder why they chose it anyway? Maybe a chance to use it at least twice in the season. Go Lewis 7/7. With the ss Alonso has a chance. The RB I think is still disorganised by FIA. tony sullivan Is AJN the author of this prediction? If so, Why are you afraid to give your name? I'll tell you why. AJN is a Schumacher sycophant. He is over. He is passe'. His feat at Monaco was an aberration on a track that relies on luck for the best time.He will be outclassed by many of the pilots in Montreal

I'm trying to enjoy episode 2 on my iPhone but that crappy touch interface is not working properly ..
I always get stuck somewhere and have to repeat it ten times to get it working.
1. The scene where the man with the chopped of leg tired into a walker and attacks me.
Touch doesn't work here ..... got past that after tring at least 20 times .....
At least it's clear what I'm supposed to get rid of the zombie
There are buttons displayed (but obviously not working)
2. The scene behind the tractor.
It's totally impossible to get him moving. Tried it hundred times now including smashing the iPhone to the ground (...)
The tractor starts moving and be gets shot by an arrow.
What is the "action" to get him moving?
Swiping ?
Pushing ?
Pressing ?
Any hint?
I would really like if u could give us iOS gamer at least a button or a choice of having buttons in the game.
Btw.... The gameplay on the iPhone 4 feels like an early beta. Frame drops, lags and interface errors aren't what I expect for 5$ + 11$ ....
Get it fixed ....
