Nicola Verlato's recent series of paintings called Mothers of Destruction are raunchy depictions of chap-wearing, bare-breasted mothers who hurtle through the universe (or perhaps just over Kansas) amidst a cyclonic mess of eggs, dish soap and the kitchen sink. These paintings are full of movement, action, anguish, strength and power, along with a few rubber toys and some sort of Yoda-Dobby. Technically these pieces are amazing (go to the link for a larger format), so rich in detail, so much layering. At first glance these cowgals might not resemble any mothers you know, but you don't have to look hard to recognize the signs of a maternal bad day.

Transmembrane chloride ion conductance in skeletal muscle increases during early postnatal development. A transgenic mouse model of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) displays decreased sarcolemmal chloride conductance. Both effects result from modulation of chloride channel 1 (CLCN1) expression, but the respective contributions of transcriptional vs. posttranscriptional regulation are unknown. Here we show that alternative splicing of CLCN1 undergoes a physiological splicing transition during the first 3 wk of postnatal life in mice. During this interval, there is a switch to production of CLCN1 splice products having an intact reading frame, an upregulation of CLCN1 mRNA encoding full-length channel protein, and an increase of CLCN1 function, as determined by patch-clamp analysis of single muscle fibers. In a transgenic mouse model of DM1, however, the splicing transition does not occur, CLCN1 channel function remains low throughout the postnatal interval, and muscle fibers display myotonic discharges. Thus alternative splicing is a posttranscriptional mechanism regulating chloride conductance during muscle development, and the chloride channelopathy in a transgenic mouse model of DM1 results from a failure to execute a splicing transition for CLCN1.

Once again, it seems likely that religion plays a role in the prominence of their facial hair choices. Pakistan also shares some historical commonalities with India, and they probably have similar cultural attitudes toward facial hair as a symbol of masculinity and virility. Many famous Pakistanis have had moustaches, notably the national poet Mohammed Iqbal, the cricketer Javed Miandad, the former President Pervez Musharraf and the current incumbent Asif Ali Zardari. This prevalence of influential moustache-wearers indicates that moustaches still enjoy huge popularity within this nation.

Ive got some updates from working on the wiz and gp2x you might want to use, like the resolution being selectable from within the gui 320x200 or 320x240.
Upscaling renderers will probably slow things down a bit - the poor old GP32 alrady has to do a transposed blit every frame.
It's a pity that SDL doesn't have native rotation options to handle portrait screens.
Well it just enables the option to use it. Heres my patch:
Edit: thanks for the modplug changes, those do help.

A 36-year-old woman was found murdered at her home in the first floor of a two-storeyed building in Muthamil Nagar, Kodungaiyur on Tuesday.
A 36-year-old woman was found murdered at her home in the first floor of a two-storeyed building in Muthamil Nagar, Kodungaiyur on Tuesday.
According to police, the woman was found naked, but her jewellery was intact, ruling out the possibility of a murder for gain.
street in fourth block of Muthtamizil Nagar in Kodungaiyur of north Chennai on Tuesday. Police ruled out murder for gain as the jewels including ear stud was intact on the victim but police suspect that illegal conduct might have led to the murder.
The victim, S. Pushpalatha, worked at a private textile company in MKB Nagar. She was found by her 10-year-old daughter when she returned from school at around 5 p.m. The victim was on her stomach on the floor of the bedroom, covered by a sari and a mat. Police said she had possibly been smothered by a pillow, but the assailant had also cut her throat.

Cashing in with T.J. Miller #64: Jenga Jerky
By Katie Levine on June 4, 2013
Cash and TJ talk about Tex Mex, cola wars, bulbous face, glosters, aging blankets, thin littles, drum circles, Elton John, fun juggers, toothless alligators, and blue emus, and ask the question, "Where would you put your Oscar?"
Listen to this episode in the Wingman State while reading a copy of Bus Weekly, it will make you purrr……
theres no file to download
never mind found it on libsyn
That's when you post the link, friend!!
woohoo – thanks for posting the link – we LOVE your hot tasty pod!
i really needed this tasty hot buttery pod
TJ Miller is hilarious. but Cash Levy is terrible at comedy. TJ directly tell him when he beats dead, unfunny horse hack jokes. There's a reason TJ has a career while Levy doesn't even have that-guy-from-that-thing status. I should actually thank Levy — he lets me know literally ANYONE can claim to be comedian.
The girls and I were looking for a night with podcast form TJ when Levy forced his unwanted fails at jokes inside us. We reported it to a police sketch artist saying "he looked like the most unfunny hack alive" and we came up with Cash Levy's bald head. Go Dodgers!
I am shocked- SHOCKED that Cashing In is cashing in with a sponsor. The 12.5 listeners must be a very desirable demographic.
I'm a well-rounded man with sophisticated tastes, but I can't remember the last thing that made me laugh as hard as (paraphrasing) "My dick is like a footlong hotdog, that's been mostly eaten".

Want to make money trading shares on-line? If you comply with these 5 basic recommendations, you can expect to be way forward of the pack.
one) Listen to the charts
You could have identified a wonderful stock, and it could have the very best fundamentals in the globe, but online currency forex here is the truth-- that's not plenty of! Even if a stock has a million elementary motives to go up, it truly is not going wherever except people are purchasing it. Men and women really don't generally act rationally, so you can not suppose that a stock will behave as it should market trading . Which is the place specialized analysis (chart reading) happens in. By finding out to examine charts, you can spot stocks that are poised to transfer up, or conversely, stocks hopelessly headed down. Reading stock charts will allow you to locate shares which basically will move up, penny stocks not just shares you believe must transfer up.
2) Use stop losses
No one particular is actually suitable 100% of the time. Which is just the nature of the game. Even the finest stock pickers from time to time choose lemons, but which is not necessarily a issue. Finding losers, optionstrading1982.com which is inescapable, is only a dilemma if you permit them destroy your account. You totally should set halt reduction orders just about every time you make a trade, or else you may possibly wake up and uncover your complete account decimated. Remember, to make income trading stocks online currency forex on the web, you never often have to select winners-- your winners just have to be larger than your losers. You accomplish this by always cutting your losers early, and then allowing your winners operate.
3) Never move in entrance of a rushing prepare
One particular of the most significant myths about creating dollars by buying and selling stocks on-line is that you have to purchase minimal and offer high. That is a quite risky way of contemplating. Why? Since people, looking out for stocks to purchase minimal, eagerly invest in stocks which are spiraling trade oil downward. They hope, typically falsely, that soon soon after they invest in the stock, it will turn around, go greater, and then they can sell for a revenue. But inquire any expert trader and he'll inform you that shares which drop precipitously are likely to hold forex signals dropping. Really don't stage in front of a speeding train. As a substitute, uncover shares which are healthily moving up and will preserve going up. Think of it not as "acquire very low and offer significant," but "acquire significant and provide larger."
four) Ignore the penny stocks men and women on Television
There is no shortage of media personalities who enjoy to suggest stocks. Adhere to their guidance and you'll grow to be wealthy, correct? Incorrect. If you could make millions by following the guy on Television, everybody would be rich. You've got acquired to do your personal homework. You see, it can be not automatically that the people today in the media really don't know what they are talking about. They generally do. It really is that by the time that information reaches you, it really is too late! Think about it...there are experts who shell out all best stocks day wanting for the subsequent excellent stock to invest in. Do you really think that by the time a stock choose reaches the common public on Tv, the intelligent cash has not presently acquired it? Of course it has, and by the time the small guy penny stocks buys himself, he's left keeping the bag. If you want to make funds trading on the web, you've got obtained to feel independently. Or else, you are going to be at the rear of the curve.
five) Never overpay on commissions
Why don't we say you start off buying and selling stocks on the web with one particular thousand dollars. Now pennystocks4509.com why don't we say you might be spending ten bucks for each trade. And eventually, let's suppose you make 30 trades for each thirty day period. If you do the math, you'll see that you are doomed irregardless of how good your stock picks are! Men and women frequently get so excited about buying and selling shares on the internet, they forget about about all the cash squandered on commissions. If you want to be successful about the long term, you have to come across a broker with low plenty of commissions for your buying and selling design. With some brokers charging as low as a single penny per reveal, there is certainly no motive to waste all of your money in charges. In this way, exploring on the web brokers is just as important as studying shares.
Retain in head these five recommendations and you've got by now set your self up for results in trading shares on-line. Great luck!

Drama and sensation—no other marathon race offers these elements as much as the Olympics. At the Olympic Games it's always hard to accurately predict the medalists over 26.2 miles. Taking place in the heat of summer and often run over undulating courses, the outcome has its own particular rules.
Seldom do the pre-race favorites win. In the last four women's Olympic marathons, the runners who had dominated the distance in the preceding years all failed. The last favorite to win gold was the Portuguese Rosa Mota in Seoul in 1988. The story hasn't been much different for the men—who would have predicted the winners at the last four editions as the Italian Stefano Baldini (2004), Ethiopia's Gezahegne Abera (2000), the South African Josiah Thugwane (1996) or the Korean Hwang Young-Cho (1992)?
The man who has run the fastest marathon in each of the last three years has passed up the chance of running this race. Haile Gebrselassie (Ethiopia), who suffers from asthma, is fearful that the polluted air might cause permanent damage. However, in view of the strength of the competition, his victory would not have been a foregone conclusion by any means. Without Gebrselassie the possibility of the Kenyans producing the men's Olympic champion for the first time could increase considerably, as all three Kenyan team members are strong contenders.
Here we list eight favorites. Alongside them on the last day of the Games (August 24) runners from Japan, China and perhaps Korea should also have a say in the outcome.
Martin Lel (Kenya)
Personal Best: 2:05:15
Lel has become the runner who is the hardest to beat, at least when it comes to the big city marathons. He has won the last two London marathons, as well as last fall's New York City race. The 29-year-old set his personal best at London in April; his 2:05:15 is the fifth fastest performance of all time. Lel belongs to the training group of the Italian manager Dr. Gabriele Rosa; the Kenyan record holder and former world record holder Paul Tergat (2:04:55) is also a member.
Sammy Wanjiru (Kenya)
Personal Best: 2:05:24
He is the new name among Kenya's world-class marathoners. Wanjiru debuted in December, winning the Fukuoka race in 2:06:39. In London in April he improved to 2:05:24, beaten only by Martin Lel. His impressive performances at the marathon come as no surprise since Wanjiru is the man who took the world half marathon record from Haile Gebrselassie. The Kenyan, who is based in Japan, ran 58:33 in 2007 for the half. That remains the fastest of all time and suggests that Wanjiru is a long way from reaching his limits in the marathon.
Robert Kipkoech Cheruiyot (Kenya)
Personal Best: 2:07:14
In recent years Robert Cheruiyot has been one of the most successful marathon runners in the world. It's in Boston above all that the 29-year-old has made the headlines where he won for the fourth time this year. He also holds the course record of 2:07:14 there from 2006. Last year Cheruiyot won the first series of the World Marathon Majors. In 2006 he also won the Chicago Marathon. He is a member of the Dr. Gabriele Rosa training group.
Stefano Baldini (Italy)
Personal Best: 2:07:22
Baldini was a surprise winner of the gold medal in the torrid heat of Athens four years ago, the crowning moment of his career. The 37-year-old has never won any of the important big city marathons, but he is often at his peak when it comes to championships. Baldini became European champion in 1998 and again in 2006, and finished third at the World Championships of 2001 and 2003. Back in 1996 he was world half marathon champion.
Abderrahim Goumri (Morocco)
Personal Best: 2:05:30
Top of the strong Moroccan marathon team, Goumri has produced outstanding performances in high-class races in London and New York in the last 18 months. He debuted in London in 2007, and finished second, just 3 seconds behind Martin Lel. He achieved the same position again in New York where once more Lel was faster. The 32-year-old improved his time to 2:05:30 behind Lel and Wanjiru for third place in London this April.
Ryan Hall (USA)
Personal Best: 2:06:17
The American is currently the strongest non-African marathoner. He entered the elite ranks of road racers just last year, starting with the first sub-one-hour half marathon (59:43) by an American. He debuted at London in 2007 in 2:08:24. In November he easily won the U.S. Olympic Trials in New York. In April the 25-year-old returned to the London Marathon and improved to fifth place with the first-class time of 2:06:17. Ryan Hall could well produce a surprise in Beijing.
Deriba Merga (Ethiopia)
Personal Best: 2:06:38
Following the withdrawal of Haile Gebrselassie, he is likely to be the strongest of the Ethiopian marathoners. Last year Merga established himself among the world elite when he came in second in 2:06:55 in Fukuoka. In the London Marathon in April the 27-year-old improved to 2:06:38 for sixth place. Merga was fourth at the World Half Marathon Championships in 2007 in his fastest time of 59:16.
Viktor Röthlin (Switzerland)
Personal Best: 2:07:23
Viktor Röthlin's achievements so far give a clear indication that he could spring a surprise at the Olympics. Following his win in the Zurich Marathon in 2:08:20 in the spring of 2007, he made people sit and take notice when he won bronze at the World Championships in the extreme heat and humidity of Osaka. Röthlin, who had taken second place at the European Championships in 2006, improved his Swiss record to 2:07:23 in winning the Tokyo Marathon at the beginning of this year. He was 36th at the Olympics in 2000 and dropped out in Athens four years later. Now Röthlin is aiming for the crowning moment of his career.

In order to explain their combat to a greater degree, the developers creating The Chronicles of Spellborn have put together a video that showcases the sort of combat you'll experience in the dark fantasy world. Actions always speak louder than words, so sit back and absorb the video segment that the Ten Ton Hammer staff has hosted for you! If it doesn't get you excited for Spellborn, you'd better check your pulse.
Watch it right here at Ten Ton Hammer.

State government, local businesses coming up with ways to help those in need
With the damage left behind in the wake of the storm system, swift actions are being taken everywhere to get help where it's needed.
Governor Steve Beshear signed a consumer protection executive order at the request of Attorney General Jack Conway to implement Kentucky's price-gouging laws statewide as of Friday, March 2. The executive order will allow for investigation into any complaints of price gouging that may occur relative to gas, building supplies, hotels and other goods and services in the aftermath of the weekend's storms.
He also signed an order Saturday that allows Kentuckians displaced by Friday's storms to get up to a 30-day supply of needed medicines from a pharmacist. It's the first time such an order has been issued. This order will not allow for emergency refills of controlled substances.
Beshear is asking the federal government to expedite aid. the governor said Sunday that he has "no doubt" that the state suffered enough damage to qualify for federal aid in the wake of the tornadoes. The state has already deployed almost 400 National Guard troops to help the hardest-hit areas.
If you want to help, channels to do so are being created right now. Several organizations are coming together to form drop off points where people can donate items in need. Locations in Prestonsburg include City Hall, the county clerk's office, and the studios of Q95 FM. A tractor trailer has set up in the old Save a Lot parking lot in Prestonsburg, and will accept donations of baby formula, non-perishable food items, as well as personal hygiene items, diapers and more from 3:00 today through 3:00 Thursday.
As you can imagine, at times like this blood is desperately needed, and the Kentucky Blood Center will be collecting life-saving blood during a drive tomorrow at Johnson Central High School from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. To find mout more information call 793-4977.

About Us
The story of Eggs Etc. started over 45 years ago when Ruth was brought to Lansing, Iowa from Taiwan by Keith, her American husband. She was then taught how to cook American food by her Mother In-Law, Florence McKee. Ruth, Keith and their four children eventually relocated to Long Beach in 1975 and shortly thereafter they started their own breakfast café. Throughout the years Ruth has had several restaurants in Long Beach.
She plans to remain at her current location where she is semi-retired and her grown daughters Tammy and Pam and grandsons Josh and Brandon are carrying on the tradition taught by Grandma McKee many years ago. A great meal with a homemade Midwestern touch!

Pickerington is a city in Fairfield and Franklin counties in the central region of the U.S. state of Ohio. It was founded in 1815. It is a suburb of Columbus. The population was 9,792 at the 2000 census. As land annexation, development, and in-migration in and around Columbus continues, the city of Pickerington (like many area suburbs) has generally followed suit: its population was estimated at 17,531 as of July, 2008. The Ohio Secretary of State certified Pickerington as a city in 1991. At 11.1 sqmi, Pickerington is the second largest city in Fairfield County. The City of Pickerington is located just east of Columbus, Ohio. The city features a historic downtown shopping area, while Violet Township is home to rolling hills, long horses, forests, and fields.

text: I just saw on a local news site that North Carolina homeboy Andy Griffith has died at 86. One news site called him an "NC legend", another said "NC icon". Both were correct. It's a sad day for NC'ers. He was much-loved here for his portrayal of a kinder, gentler LEO who always had a hot and a cot for the town drunk Otis and allowed his halfwit deputy Barney Fife to carry one round in his shirt pocket. Rest in peace, Andy.

Lane closures continue between St. Michael and Monticello
ST. CLOUD, Minn. – Motorists may encounter delays and a detour as the ramp from eastbound I-94 to Wright County Road 19 in Albertville closes overnight on two nights beginning Thursday, Aug. 8.
The ramp is scheduled to close as follows.
- 8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 8 to 6 a.m. Friday, Aug. 9
- 11 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 11 to 6 a.m. Monday, Aug. 12
Non rush hour lane closures also will continue on both directions of I-94 between St. Michael and Monticello through mid-September.
The closures are part of a project to repair and resurface segments of I-94 between the Crow River bridge in St. Michael and County Road 18 in Monticello.
Motorists should slow down and prepare to stop as they approach the daily work zone, and expect rough pavement until the road's surface is ground smooth later in the project.

The Genaray LED-6200T 144 LED Variable-Color On-Camera Light is a vertically and horizontally stackable light with 144 LEDs that produce a 640 lux brightness at 3 ft distance. The color temperature output is variable from a cool 5600K to a warm 3200K by a smooth-tuning dial on the back. The stepless dial rotates with a bit of resistance that encourages fine-tuning. A magnetic diffuser snaps onto the front to soften the light output and significantly reduce contrast between different areas of your subject. Brightness is adjustable, flicker-free, from 10 to 100% by another stepless dial on the back. Flickering can be picked up by a camera, so the ability to adjust brightness flicker-free will enable you to lower or increase it while you are capturing your scene. The light can be stacked up and sideways with other 6200T units via proprietary integrated shoe mounts on the top and sides.
You get several accessories -- an NP-F550 battery, an AC adapter for continuous power in an indoor setting, a AC/DC battery charger, a car charger, the above-mentioned snap-on diffuser, a ball head that swivels 360° and tilts 180°, and a carry case for keeping everything organized. Alternative to the included battery, you can attach any Sony L-series type battery up to the largest and longest lasting one. Like the AC adapter, the car charger can also be connected directly to the light to get continuous power without a battery. And the ball head features a shoe mount that comes off to reveal a 1/4"-20 thread for mounting and adjusting the light on various stands. The 6200T has a densely solid build and is one of Genaray's best Professional Series lights.

Helen of Troy Tangle-free Thermal Hot Air Brush
Desiree W.HairLight BrownFine or Thin HairHelen Of TroyThanks for the opportunity to say how I feel about the product I purchased from you . Firstly the service was great However when I received the brush i discovered it was fitted with a plug that was not suitable to N Z standards and could not be altered and the currency was not compatible to N Z I was most upset and angry as to ship the brush out was expensive to say the least I feel it is almost ridiculous to send it back because of the cost The brush was only such a small part of the total cost . I think these things should be pointed out to the consumer. I never gave it a thought .Being elderly and not familiar with these things .I am truly disappointed , as the brush was exactly what I wanted . Perhaps there is an adaptor over there that could make it work here . Thanks. I will be all the wiser next time.?????posted Nov 15, 2010Link to this post
SharonI have used this type of airbrush for years ... whether I had my hair short, medium or long and I love it. It dries and hair and curls it however I wanted it to. My hair is shoulder length now and I don't even have to use a curling iron for touch-up areas. I had the previous one for about 2-3 years (until the motor just went poof). I couldn't locate the same type at hair retailers so I bought the one I wanted online. Another brand I tried in the interim did not the cool blue end to hold the brush and I was constantly burning my fingers. This is the best.posted Mar 1, 2010Link to this post
SharonMountainair, NMGreat Hot Air Brush!I have had several Hot Air Brushes, this is the best. Had trouble with the bristles breaking on all the other brushes, but I don't think I will have that problem with this brush. I also like the metal barrel, it seems to makes the curl last longer.posted Jan 17, 2010Link to this post
MollieLas Cruces, NMGreat Air Brush, Poor QualityI loved this air brush - for the 9 weeks that it worked. When it worked it made my hair smooth and and shiny without split ends. Then one morning I went to turn it on and the motor just started smoking. Talk about disappointment!posted Jan 4, 2010Link to this post
TomacenaMiami,fla UsaPoor Results From This Airbrushi was highly disappointed with the results that i got from this airbrush.The heat was rather lukewarm and i'm sure that this had a lot to do with the results from the curl. i would not recommend the appliance to anyone.posted Jan 3, 2010Link to this post
LesleyWimpy, Really WimpyI agree with the other reviewer re lack of power. I'm probably clumsier than average, and I find it really easy to burn myself with this thing, much more so than any other hair appliance (and I have a lot). The barrel also releases way too easily; I've got coarse frizzy hair and it can just rip that thing right off. It works the best to roll my ends under and that's about it.posted Sep 15, 2009Link to this post

Linda WolfeCaliforniaHairFine or Thin HairExcellent For Fine HairIf you have fine hair this is the brush for you. Yes, the watts are low at 300, but its all you need for fine hair.

The all-new Circuit of The Americas (COTA) in Austin, Texas, venue for Novembers 2012 Formula 1 United States Grand, has been signed off by F1 racings governing body, the FIA, after its final scheduled pre-race inspection.
Charlie Whiting, FIA Race Director and Safety Delegate, visited the new venue on Tuesday and after a two-hour assessment declared himself happy with the construction progress and the overall quality of the circuit.
"The track design is fantastic, the quality of the workmanship is excellent and I have no concerns at all, said Whiting after the inspection. This will be a very unique Grand Prix, a lot of types of corners that will provide a lot of overtaking opportunities.
The progress thats been made since the last time I was here is amazing. I think the guys here have done an awesome job. It really is fantastic, everythings built to the highest quality, exactly as we expected, and Ive got absolutely no complaints.
Whitings sign-off means that COTA now receives the Grade 1 FIA status it needs to stage Formula One racing, clearing the way for what will be the first Grand Prix on American soil since 2007 when the paddock arrives for the November 16-18 round.
Whiting said he would be making final checks on the Monday prior to the race, but emphasized that only detail work such as landscaping and painting remained outstanding.

Call 1-800-331-0503 or contact us on-line about foster parenting or adoption.
The Oregon Department of Human Services (DHS) offers opportunities for you to talk with staff or attend an informational meeting to ask questions and learn more. For more information, please contact your local DHS office.
Becoming a foster parent will bring changes to your life. Because of that, it is important every member of your household considers what that will mean to them. The following is a list of questions that can help you make the right decision with your family:
After deciding to begin the process of becoming a foster parent you will receive an application form to complete by your local DHS office. You will be asked to provide the names of 4 references who have been in your home and know your family well. Criminal history and child abuse background checks are conducted on all applicants. You may be asked to provide additional information such as medical history. When your application has been accepted you will attend classes to become familiarized with the needs of foster children.
The training provided by DHS will prepare you for parenting children who may have been abused or neglected. Topics include:
The homestudy process begins with your assigned worker. This is a very thoughtful process consisting of a series of interviews, home visits, meeting your children and others who may also live in your home, safety/fire inspections and sometimes medical information from your doctor.
Working together with your certifier, you will decide what children you can best care for. Before a child comes into your home, you will be given information about the child to help you decide if the placement is right for you.
When a child is placed in your home the child's caseworker will continue to provide you with information about the child which will help you better understand him or her as well meet the child's need for safety and well being. Caseworkers spend time with children placed in foster care a minimum of every 30 days. Caseworkers also will have monthly contact with you and visit you in your home every 60 days.
Your certifier will be available to you for support and guidance. You will see your certifier regularly and he or she will invite you to training and share other training resources.
Are you sure you would like to leave?

My Mood:
Re: Tomlin showed his true colors today
I need not follow my own advice. Why would I listen to me?lol. What I say doesn't effect the Steelers one bit. This is a message board, a sounding board a discussion board from dumb things to intelligent things
Everything posted here doesn't have to be agreed on by everyone or commented on. But this was a good topic, and apparently Tomlins mouth and flip flopping on things keeps adding to it.
Tomlins mouth does effect things and can sway opinions. He should've waited out the process. Than he could've sounded very intelligent and came out with a simple statment. Instead he choose not to back his players in this regard.
Somewhat intelligent, after the fact statement:
"The league deemed James's hit to be illegal, the appeal process played out and we need to abide by the ruling. Its unfortunate. James needs to blah blah blah."
BUT NOOOOOOO he needed to come before and state the hit was illegal and basically he did the crime now has to do the time. That was BS and we all know it. I'm sure that played well with the abitrator. I would love
If he had balls, he could've said this:
"Well we have been fined again, for no apparent reason other than we are the Steelers the hardest hitting mofo's in the NFL. We can live with that, we have to live with that, next up Alex Smith"
James really needs to make a statment in one of the last 2 games. Come in past the line balls out to the QB and stop at the QB and finger tap him or come in, and grab the QB towel. Than raise his hands like the QB is supposed to stop when I pull the towel out.
Now that would be some funny poop!

Youth reject Facebook's death of privacy claims
Posted By admin On April 19, 2010 @ 11:43 am In Prison Planet | Comments Disabled
The Register [1]
April 19, 2010
Young people do care about their privacy, a new survey has found, contradicting the claims of Silicon Valley plutocrats.
Earlier this year Facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg became the latest tech billionaire to proclaim the death [2] of personal privacy, saying digital yoof are not concerned by it.
A poll of US 18 to 24-year-olds however found they do value privacy, but are naive about the risks and protections online, AFP reports.
"This lack of knowledge in a tempting environment, rather than a cavalier lack of concern regarding privacy, may be an important reason large numbers of [young people] engage with the digital world in a seemingly unconcerned manner," a report by the University of California said.

Feb 2nd 2007 10:35PM I think there are just a bunch of haters in WOW. Who cares what other people's names are? I know people in real life that have more offensive names. Get a life people. We all are not conservative suburbanites. Stop forcing your conservative suburban values upon the rest of the world. Are we here to critique their creativity/ignorance? "OMG someone named their character Hothorde, I'm scared for life!" OMFG get over yourselves! Just play the game. I have seen plenty of inappropriate names worse than the ones listed on this forum and they have not been forced to change. Obviously this is subjective and not objective and Blizz needs better guidelines for the GMs to follow.

Regular Classes
beginner level
The beginner level is for those with absolutely no experience in tango or dancing, or those who want to review and polish basic technique. The beginner classes run in five week series, with new series starting every five weeks. The complete curriculum for the beginner class is spread over ten weeks, and can be completed by taking two consecutive series.
The goal of the beginner level classes is to provide the student with fundamental elements of Argentine Tango, including walking, the basic step, basic changes of direction, and forward and backward ochos. The proper embrace, balance, control, rhythm and basic lead or follow technique are introduced in this class as the main elements of the dance in order to improvise.
Currently the beginner class is offered three times a week. Check the calendar for the most up-to-date times and series start dates. To preregister, send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com
advanced beginner level
Students move to the advanced beginner level once they are comfortable with the material taught in the ten weeks of the beginner class. Occasionally students will initially attend both the beginner and advanced beginner classes at the same time to reinforce the grasp of the fundamentals. At the advanced beginner level, students initially choose one of two tracks, Salon or Club Style (Milonguero). Please see the instructors to help determine the appropriate class levels.
Salon I
Basic Tango elements will be reviewed in new combinations in order to strengthen the technical background. Elements such as paradas, boleos, barridas, ganchos, amagues, giros, sacadas will be introduced. We will work on those elements in their most basic form, as well as balance, posture and coordination with your partner in order to attain accurate technique and comfortable execution in the salon style.
Club Style (Milonguero) I
Club style is the tango danced in the downtown Buenos Aires where dance halls are small and crowded. The elements taught in this class are the different rhythms danced in tango, the walking technique, changes of direction, control of the weight and weight shift, posture and embrace, the cultural aspect of the dance and the understanding of the tango music. These elements combined together will allow you to improvise and navigate on a crowded dance floor connected to your partner through the music.
intermediate level
The intermediate level is the broadest level offered at NETA. In addition to the second level salon and milonguero style classes, students are introduced to dancing to different types of tango music (i.e. vals and milonga). Individual technique classes are also offered to improve balance and coordination.
Salon II
This class will focus on the tango elements needed to become a fluid dancer. We will work on expanding your tango salon vocabulary and to improve your navigation on the dance floor. We will also focus on technique, posture, style, and musicality.
Club Style (Milonguero) II
Continuing milonguero, including more complex changes of directions, phrasing and musicality as well as dancing to the different rhythms of tango, waltz and milonga in the same class.
Ladies' Technique (Technique for followers).
The followers technique class is suited to all levels. Based on your level in tango you will be able to deepen on your own process and quality of your dancing. The class will start in bare foot, socks or low heel shoes with a routine of warm up and stretching exercises to develop body awareness, alignment, posture, dissociation, balance, flexibility and tango technique. We will learn to understand and execute the basic tango movements (short and long step, forward and backward ochos, boleos, molinetes and sacadas), their variations and embelishments through the connection to the music, the control of your footwork and legwork. We will find the posture through exercises that direct us to a connected embrace. We will explore our sensuality by using our whole body to fill up empty spaces.
All the above elements will be integrated as you dance with your partner to the different rhythms, styles and orchestras by listening to his invitation and coloring that structure without breaking or interrupting it and by keeping the connection through the embrace.
You will learn the rhythms and steps used in milonga lisa, contratiempo and traspie as well as their application on the dance floor. Traspie is a tool to dance at a crowded dance floor as well as to add a variety of rhythmic changes and embellishments to your dancing.
Vals Cruzado
Students will learn the rhythms used in Waltz. We call it Vals Cruzado because it is danced using often the change from parallel to crossed systems, unlike the Viennese Waltz. We will explore new combinations of turns, sacadas, and boleos as well as adapting the tango figures to waltz rhythms.
advanced level
At the advanced level, students are expected to have a basis in both salon and milonguero styles, familiarity with the different types of tango music and orchestras, and ample experience dancing in milongas.
The advanced class is a great opportunity for you to build your improvisation skills and create your own interpretation of Tango music. New Tango elements will be introduced to enrich your Tango vocabulary. We will work on sequences and combinations to incorporate these figures into your dance, keeping technique as the main element in order to lead and follow in a fluid and comfortable way.
Advanced level classes run for an hour and a half.
We will develop sessions in which we will work on understanding and executing challenging technical elements that are part of the choreography. We will develop performance skills through theater exercises.

New in the DKNG Store: Stiicks
December 13th, 2013 // Posted by Dan in Blog, DKNG NewsWe're excited to introduce a new framing option in the DKNG Store. "Stiicks", from Well Made, are 4 thin strips of American hardwood embedded with several super-strong neodymium rare-earth magnets that sandwich what you're hanging firmly in between. The top pieces mount to the wall, while the bottom weigh down whatever you are hanging. Swapping artwork with Stiicks is simple. Just lift the magnetic slat and put whatever you want in your artwork's place before dropping the Stiick back on top – the magnets will automatically align the frame.
We now have Stiicks available in American Cherry and high gloss black and white in sizes for both 18″ and 24″ poster widths. Stiicks ship in a standard poster tube, greatly reducing the shipping cost versus traditional framing.
3 Responses to "New in the DKNG Store: Stiicks"
Cool but I wouldn't use them on any print I considered valuable.
I mean what effect does the wood and magnets have on the integrity of the print? Will it discolor the print in time? Do Stiicks leave indentation marks on a print?
I also would certainly not leave a valuable print exposed to the elements like that. I guess you could put the print in mylar and cut to fit, the magnets look strong enough to go through it.
Not trying to be a negative Nancy or anything, it's a cool product, just not sure I would use it with anything other than a disposable print.
These certainly look cool. Replicates the Japanese "scroll" design quite well, minus the thread hanger on top. It certainly oozes an amount of style. If I were decorating an upscale office and didn't mind laying down $40, I'd certainly consider them. For now, I'm in the "cheap plastic frames" market.
Just a quick note, we use furniture grade lacquer, so there is no chance of discoloration of your prints. Also, the magnets are inserted without glue, below the surface, to protect your prints every step of the way!

Déjà vu drunkard
A Sonoma man, 29, well known to authorities for matters largely regarding alcohol and abuse of same, was sentenced on Feb. 4 to 90 days at a rehab clinic in Ukiah. On the 17th, he appeared the Sonoma Police Department to pick up personal items left there after his last arrest. Incredulous officers asked him why he wasn't at the clinic. Rehab, the man replied, what rehab? The scene was made even more ridiculous by the bottle of vodka sticking out of his pocket. But it's not open, he reasoned, so it's OK. In a word, not. Possession, even of a sealed bottle, triggered a probation violation. Back to jail he went.
Thai one on
That strange sound coming from the restaurant patron… was he trying to speak Thai, or just stupid drunk? It was the latter on the evening if Feb. 17, much to the chagrin of management. When authorities arrived, the "heavily intoxicated subject" was stumbling out the door. Clearly soused – it wasn't the lemongrass — and unable to walk without aid, the diner, 36, was deemed unable to care for himself. Result: jailed for being drunk in public.
Go to the light
On the way to his girlfriend's house for a Valentine's Day visit, a 57-year-old El Verano man's heart went boom. No, wait – that was his Ford F-250 knocking over a light pole on West Napa at Second St. The man jumped out of the truck and began running away, but was quickly nabbed by responding deputies. He blamed the crash on falling asleep at the wheel. Leaving the scene was likely caused by booze and fear; his blood alcohol level was a hefty .165 and, having just completed a stint in rehab, he said his family would disown him if they found out. He was booked for the DUI and the hit and run.
An anonymous tip lead to the bust of a 13-year-old boy found with marijuana at Adele Harrison Middle School on Feb. 14. The giveaway to authorities was the tell-tale 'crinkling' sound as he tried to secretly transfer the illicit baggie from his pants pocket to the back of his jeans.
Alone at last
Odd totems of a surreptitious visitor – black gloves and a cigarette – were found in a vacant house on the 1900 block of Fifth St. W. The trespasser, still at large, gained entry through a now-secured side door. Police added an extra patrol in the neighborhood in hopes of nabbing the unwelcome visitor.
Same tune, different partner
Another case of identity theft, this time by a seemingly musically-inlcined hacker. A married Sonoma couple remembers an online pop-up message regarding a "security feature" that demanded names and social security numbers. Like most scams, it sounds obvious in retrospect, but is much harder to resist in real-time. The thief, armed with bank account number, made four charges around the country – three at different musical instrument companies.
Two bike thefts reported on Feb. 11. One, a blue three-speed cruiser hybrid, color blue, value $300, was noted missing from a carport in the 200 block of Second St. E. It had been locked, but the lock and cable were also missing. Just after midnight, a $800 Rockhopper, red with white letters, was reported stolen from a carport near 1100 Broadway. It too had been secured, but there was no trace of the lock.
… and found
Did you lose an envelope of jewelry along the bike path on Feb. 10? Describe the contents to an officer at 177 First St. W. and they will be returned.

Stem Cell Finding Could Help Fight Autoimmune Disease. In a finding that could help researchers better understand autoimmune disease, scientists say a process called autophagy prompts dying embryonic stem cells to send out "eat me" and "come and get me" signals to ensure their elimination by healthy cells. The findings also suggest that defects in autophagy might trigger autoimmune diseases and, if so, reversing the defects could potentially help treat such diseases. Health Central.com 03/15/07.

Get an overview of Albania's art, culture, people, environment, geography, history, economy and its government.Albania is a republic on the Balkan Peninsula in southeastern Europe that borders the Adriatic Sea and Ionian Sea in west, Montenegro in north, Serbia (Kosovo) in north east, the Republic of Macedonia in east, and Greece in south east. Albania shares maritime borders with Croatia and Italy.

Country Profile |
Flag of Albania Background: Previously part of the Byzantine and later the Ottoman empires, Albania gained independence in 1912. It became a Stalinist regime under Enver Hoxha after World War II and remained extremely isolationist in policy and outlook until the Communists lost power in 1992. Albania ended 44 years of xenophobic communist rule and established a multiparty democracy. The transition has proven difficult as corrupt governments have tried to deal with high unemployment, a dilapidated infrastructure, widespread gangsterism, and disruptive political opponents. International observers judged local elections in 2000 to be acceptable and a step toward democratic development, but serious deficiencies remain to be corrected. Albania joined NATO in April 2009 and is a potential candidate for EU accession. Although Albania's economy continues to grow, the country is still one of the poorest in Europe, hampered by a large informal economy and an inadequate energy and transportation infrastructure. |

The Different Company Parfum de Sens et Bois is a 'my skin but better' scent for those who love violet, pepper, cedar and vetiver. It's very pretty and subtle, sophisticated, and can work for practically any situation. Starts with a distinct aroma of black and pink pepper, then becomes a woodsy floral that seems to blend in seamlessly with skin. It's extremely unisex, lasts a while though becomes extremely subtle at the end. I think it's great at this price.

Read Review details ►A very lovely, modern interpretation of oriental fragrances. It has all the traditional elements of orientals but not so overwhelming. This is not a Poison or a Shalimar. It is lighter, yet still with the lovely spice and notes that you associate with orientals.
