So yeah I have about three of them messing with me. Probably because of a recent vaccination. So I'm just hanging out and not doing as much as I would like to on my break. I'm fine, just a little annoyed. At least they don't keep me from walking, so that's nice. I went to the doctors but they said I should keep up the "wait and see" attitude.
That's all that's been going on since the beginning of the weekend.
So yeah my friend whom I've not seen in a few weeks did come over yester day. It was pretty cool, I asked him to stay over and he agreed. I thought it was really cool of him not being freaked out by a gay guy asking him to stay the night. We did some tennis in the day and reviewed a classic prank call tape.
I had trouble getting to sleep last night, last time I eat McDonald's so late. The weather drastically changed yesterday as well. The temperature raised up to 70°F just because the weather here is insane. I also hallucinated a little bit, but probably because I couldn't sleep well. I feel better this morning other than my old lymphnode area.
So by that I mean, I'm a bit lonely since I'm stuck in the house with not much to do, other than cleaning and all the other things I like to do. I would ring-up one of my buddies but sadly his phone hasn't been paid and he hasen't replied to my e-mail I sent a two weeks ago. It's a bit strange that he hasen't paid his bill.
So anyway, I bought this tie at the thrift. Very nice and in very good condition considering where it ended up. It's a dark red tie with a little sewn-in bust of the infamous Mao Zedong. The tie also has a small sewing of the great wall under his bust. It's really nice in a sense, but what it represents? I'm at a loss. What would it say about me? Lol
I remember when I used to be all down and mopey because I was single and all that bunk. But now I enjoy being free and not tied down. I wonder what exactly has caused me to go from all depressed about not having a boyfriend to being happy I'm free as a bird and being almost carefree. Maybe this is a bad thing? Or is it really an improvement?
What kind of anti-spyware, anti-virus, or anti-malware do you run? I'm currently running Ad-Aware Game Edition, Microsoft Security Essentials, and Peer Block (actually a firewall).
So anyway, my Fall semester is about to be up soon. Next week I'll get some classes together for Spring semester. Then it's the long break! However the only thing bothering me is that my semester bus pass will be up also. So I'll need to get two monthly passes eventually if I ever want to go anywhere.
Ek het geen kollege vandag! So ek is gelukkig daaroor. :-) The only reason why that is, is because I got a math lab out of the way (which turns out can actually be done at anytime during the week and not on any specific day). I've just been really content lately, and I feel great. Well until next time, totsiens alle.
So I just remebered, yesterday was all raining and awful. Mainly because I had to take the bus. So I waited at the stop no big problem, it was raining slightly, had an umbrella. So a little ways down the street stuff flies around outside the bus. It was like a little wind gust. Stopping at the next place the rain was pretty bad.
I'm not sure if this sounds ignorant and all, but I've heard so often and this was recently an event that happened to me. So the question being, why can't two gay guys be just friends. I wanted to be this guy's friend but he wanted a little more. And here I am like I just wanting to say "I'm just not that into you".
I was wondering and I don't want to make this into a favorites contest or anything with nationalism. But I was wondering, people of Oasis, what is your favorite national anthem?
I was just viewing the page and decided to give a journal since I've nothing more interesting to do. It's midterms! This Monday! I think I might fail my math test but maybe it won't be that bad. I've been studying but I need to study for my other class too. This has been a bit of a bother but I'm trying and I think it is actually paying off.
So I remember writing a journal last time I was here about my life hitting a boring pitch, and today that boredom was broken. I had this idea in my mind about going with my friend "T" downtown or to the tennis courts. We chose downtown to just hangout. Man it was so awesome, if only "R dude" could make it, but he had a stick up his ass today. :|
I'm a bit tired as I write this. Normally I'm in bed and watching late night tv but tonight I'm up listening to Smoke Rings by: Glen Gray. I've been a little boring lately, and I've been needing to work on my one class and study. And I've been doing so. But my life has hit a boring point. I haven't been having much fun.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

I feel like I would be being a bad friend if I let things happen with B. But I also think that I said something to hear that meant something and I've been railing on her about how she treats me. I don't know what happened between the time we talked after school and when I talked to her after therapy, but she ... changed her tone.
01) Are you currently in a serious relationship?
02) What was your dream growing up?
03) What talent do you wish you had?
04) If I bought you a drink, what would it be?
05) Favorite vegetable?
06) What was the last book you read?
07) What zodiac sign are you?
08) Any tattoos and/or piercings? Explain where.
09) Worst habit?
10) If you saw me walking down the street would you offer me a ride?
11) What is your favorite sport?
12) Do you have a pessimistic or optimistic attitude?
13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me?
14) Worst thing to ever happen to you?
So I thought that my day couldn't get any worse, well I was wrong. On top of all of that shit that I'm feeling the family shit and whatever it is I had the worst lunch I think ever.
There are a lot of May birthdays. My sister's birthday is later in the week and she's having tons of people over and I wish I had known that *this* many people were going to be here.
I talked to B yesterday about hanging out because I really don't want to be here when 25 8th granders invade my house. *eyeroll* I love my sister, but I hate her friends. It's kind of difficult to talk to her about relationship stuff when I hate her bf. That's kind of another issue though.
I still want to date B, but I she wants to take things slow. She kind of already treats me like her gf where she's kind of weird about who I hang out with, but not in a weird jealous way, just in her own kind of way. She says I'm being too uptight, but I'm so worried that somethign is going to happen and we aren't going to be friends (because that is the pattern we go through) that I'm being clingy and I know it.
I don't want to be stuck in this same cycle. I hate being in the revolving door with her (metaphorically) as far as me and B go. It just doesn't work. I mean it is how we are. Freshman year we were totally into one another, we talked all the time. Hung out a few times, and she kissed me. It wasn't my first kiss or her's. But it was still special.
My brain just splattered everywhere. FUCK. That is kind of why I hate and love B all at the same time. She's an evil bitch, but damn she can be really hot sometimes. I think I just like the idea of being dominated.
And fuck this is awkard typing in teh computer lab at my school. Thankfully no one knows who B is. I mean they do, just they don't know her as B. lol
Maux-- I feel kind of bad for leaving you there. T-T That isn't really what a friend should do and I'm sorry that is kind of my shit to deal with and not yours. So I feel like pond scum.

Magis 2009
The 2009 Magis collection is not about bells and whistles, but simple, hard-working design. Having said that, there was a bit of debate over the chair in Konstantin Grcic's 360° family - a love/hate piece for some (above). Pierre Paulin is still going strong; the Flower chair and Elysée shelf were nicely presented in a subtle fashion. Jasper Morrison's Pipe family was somehow suggestive of Maigritte and the Trattoria family was just the right measure of a casual, homey kitchen.

Islamic Backlash: Publisher of '9/11 Coloring Book' Receiving Threats?
"No one loves the messenger who brings bad news."
- Shakespeare in Henry IV, part 2
And that is particularly true in regards to Islamic Mohammedans.
CLAYTON, MO (KMOX) – Taking heat from Muslim groups upset with a coloring book about the 9/11 Attacks, a publisher says he's been in contact with local police and the FBI.
Wayne Bell, the Publisher of Really Big Coloring Books, Inc., says there's been a negative backlash against the book "We Shall Never Forget 9/11: The Kids' Book of Freedom."
"These are people from Al-Jazeera that have called in here numerous times, people from Iranian TV, people from Palestinian Hamas TV," Bell said, "A lot of people from the Islamic community have called in here and said increasingly negative things prior to the book being made and then after we made the book too, about the book itself."
The book has been selling briskly, so fast that Bell said he had no extra copies for reporters to take with them today.  Bell declined to disclose how many copies have sold, except to say "a lot."When asked about whether he has had any threats because of the book, Bell stopped short of saying he had."That's our C.O.O., " Bell said, pointing to a co-worker, "He's talked to the Clayton police department, a sergeant at the Clayton police department and the FBI, regarding your question. That's the answer to your question. And so, it's really good to be aware of your surroundings.We'll put it that way.
Reading between the lines, threats were made.

A "Seven Samurai" for the 21st Century.
Tsuyoshi Ihara and Masataka Kubota in "13 Assassins."
Epic. Unforgettable. Relentless. Magnificently entertaining. Japanese cult legend Takashi Miike sets aside his penchant for twisted modern horror to craft a classic period adventure, a "Seven Samurai" for the 21st century.
In feudal times, a nobleman commits ritual suicide to protest the actions of Naritsugu, the Emperor's depraved brother, whose barbaric cruelty has dishonored the throne. The scene is shot with chilling restraint. Only the actor's expression and the sound of intestines spilling on the soundtrack indicate the bloodletting taking place just outside the frame.
With Naritsugu next in line to succeed the Emperor and impossible to remove from power, hara-kiri is the only conceivable form of protest -- unless the heavily guarded tyrant can be eliminated, through what surely would be a suicide mission against his 200 bodyguards. After complex political maneuvering, the secret assassination plan is drafted and a dozen samurai sign on for a noble death in service to their nation.
The team comes together a few at a time until a dozen patriotic swordsmen are assembled. (The identity of the 13th team member is too good a surprise to spoil.) This men-on-a-mission film is superbly cast, impeccably shot, riveting even in static dialogue scenes, and overwhelming once the blades are unsheathed. The finale, a slashing 40-minute battle royal employing an endless variety of traps, strategies and weapons (including flaming bulls!) is action moviemaking at its most agile, extravagant and incredible. J-pop youth idol Goro Inagaki is seriously creepy as the childish, vicious rapist and murderer Naritsugu. As the aging leader of the samurai squad, Koji Yakusho ("Shall We Dance?") makes a strong, stalwart impression. For the stout of heart, this is a spectacle that demands to be seen on the big screen.

One station distorted the image without weakening its report. That was Channel 4, which has been kicking butt generally as of late. "Everybody at Channel 4 is doing very good work right now," says correspondent David Bloom, adding his concern that he might sound like a flack. "We're on fire in terms of the energy here. The last couple of weeks we've broken some major stories, like Susan Wallace on the Dade County Jail." Nice of him to share the credit, but Bloom himself is chief buttkicker on the local airwaves right now. He blew the Joe Gersten story open on Wednesday and continues to regularly contribute fine reports for NBC's network programming. So even though they did show a brief snippet of some grotesque bedsores the other day, I'm sticking with Channel 4.
The media circus revisited: Here's a shocker I've still got stuff to say about the riot-lootin' and its fallout. Jesse Jackson appeared on Arsenio Hall's show, and I had the misfortune of seeing it. Jackson and Hall are white-owned losers who feed racism with their step-and-fetch-it, Nipsy Russell bullshit. The brothers and sisters on the street know what time it is, these Oreos don't. Sorry for the slurs, but these guys really, really disgust me. Meanwhile, a dark-skinned woman caught in a passing newsbit during other teevy coverage hit it so clean when she said, "Black leaders? What do they mean `black leaders'? What are we, aliens?" There is no black and white - check your blood, blood. It's all mixed up. All mixed up. "Black leaders." Forever or until terms and semantics such as that are gone from the language, we as a species will remain lost in our own collective stupidity.
et corner: Hey, Trigger, welcome to the Todd Anthony household. Cute puppy, here boy, c'mon big fella. Hope you read this. Or at least take a dump on it (like humans often do).

The District of Sechelt awarded over $100,000 in grants to various groups through the community investment program during its Feb. 5 regular council meeting.
The largest single grant of $12,800 went to the Sunshine Coast Tourism Association to aid the group in a new marketing campaign.

Council also gifted an elementary school with $5,000, naming West Sechelt Elementary School's playground enhancement committee as a grant recipient.
The Sunshine Coast Salmonid Enhancement Society was awarded $3,500 to support its endeavours, and the Coast Cultural Alliance was given $2,100.

Council gave the Sunshine Coast Special Olympics $1,913 and the Community Resource Centre $1,500.
The Sechelt Seniors Activity Centre, the Clean Air Society and the Sharing Abundance Association were each granted $1,000.
Finally, the Coast Recital Society was given $567 and the Sunshine Coast Natural History Society was given $500.
The community investment program is meant to help support Sechelt's sustainability principle, which is "living well."
"Creating a caring community that lives well and celebrates together is a primary role of local government," wrote chief financial officer Victor Mema in a report to council. "The community investment program helps foster social well-being through supporting health, housing, education and arts and cultural initiatives."

Catfight Between John Dennis Vs. Rich Toucher On Twitter Right Now
First things first. If this fight actually happened I think John Dennis cripples Fred Toucher. Like cripples him. But that's neither here nor there. I"m not sure who I'm rooting for in this fight. I think it's got to be John Dennis just because I sort of know him. I don't know Toucher at all.    I do know WEEI waited far too long to respond to all the attacks. They should have been firing back from the second 98.5 launched. Because I don't care how good or bad the Toucher and Rich show is. I don't care how big of Bruins fans or Patriots fans they pretend to be. They are carpetbaggers. That's never going to change. That has always been Dennis and Callahan's biggest advantage in my opinion. They are locals.  Toucher and Rich are not.   They just sat on their hands for too long and let these guys settle in.
PS – Imagine if somebody attacked the Stoolies like this.   I mean Rich Toucher thinks his radio audience is crazy? Bro you haven't seen anything yet.  I feel like the Stoolies are just sharks circling in a tank waiting for the next enemy to present themselves. That's what I don't get about either of these radio stations. You have the most powerful, well trained army in the world just sitting on the sidelines waiting to pick a side and alter the landscape of this war forever. Whoever makes the first move wins period. Classic Drebos.
Double PS – What happened to that dude Crash? Wasn't he part of Toucher and Rich too?

HOK's Yann Weymouth brings daylighting to a space normally preferred dark.
Play Slideshow >>
Lighting: Melting the Frost
Bringing daylight into a gallery where direct light can damage the artwork is no easy task. With the design of a series of light-reflecting and -redirecting petals over expansive skylights, and after several computer scenarios, HOK and Arup were able to find the balance between letting light in and protecting the paintings on view.
Sun-drenched may be an attractive notion to Florida's oranges and snowbirds, but it's not quite what one thinks of when considering the state's art museums. Still, when Miami's Florida International University (FIU) hired Yann Weymouth of HOK's Tampa office to design the new Patricia & Phillip Frost Art Museum, he and his gallery lighting consultants from London-based Arup became strong advocates for using daylight wherever possible.
"It can be too much," admits museum director Carol Damian of the region's abundant sunshine. But the conditions at the previous exhibition space made Damian, an art historian and curator at FIU for a decade and a half, an early advocate for a daylit solution. That gallery was several steps below grade, in what Damian calls Florida's version of a basement, and windows had been covered to provide exhibition walls. The only natural light was borrowed from the below-grade entry door.
The new, three-story, 46,000-square-foot building contains 10,000 square feet of exhibition space on the second and third floors—to protect the exhibited works from potential flooding. Nine galleries form the heart of the L-shaped museum. Wall heights range from 13 feet 4 inches to 28 feet 8 inches in the five galleries that receive natural light through the Frost's signature skylight design with petal arrays. "We had to convince the museum that daylighting would be desirable and could be controlled," says Weymouth. Arup had recently completed a retrofit of The Rothko Chapel in Houston, where the intensity of the sunlight is similar to that in Miami. The success of that project helped FIU decide to go with natural lighting. Miami's natural light provides other advantages beyond brightness. Compared with a northern city such as London or Paris, the length of the day doesn't vary that much—so there aren't many museum hours during the year when it's dark outside. "You get a lot of use from daylight," says Arup's Jeff Shaw.
Each of the petals under the skylights is constructed of a fiberglass shell using the same technology as surfboard construction. The designers even spoke to local surfboard makers about manufacturing them (although they eventually hired a more conventional subcontractor). Arup used computer modeling to determine the exact form that utilizes parabolic curvature—slightly more curved on top than bottom. The petals are finished with a gray silver metallic automobile paint, chosen for its neutral qualities so as not to affect the color of the daylight.
While the drooping petals are the primary aesthetic device that gives the Frost galleries their image, less sophisticated but equally important things occur above the array in each skylit room. The skylights themselves, glazed with a polycarbonate material to meet hurricane wind loads, also provide critical light diffusion to protect the artwork on the wall. It's the combination of diffusion at the skylight with the redirection of light by the petals that delivers the exact quantity and quality of light to each gallery wall.
For the designers, with the limited budget typical of a public institutional project, a full-scale mock-up of the galleries was not an option. As expected by HOK and Arup, some fine-tuning of the system has been necessary to get the assembly just right. Initial tests after building completion revealed a lighting level of 29 foot-candles in the galleries, slightly higher than the target of 25. Simple coatings of paint have been applied to the skylight surfaces to increase diffusion and reduce the light level to the appropriate range.
Arup also designed the artificial lighting for all the galleries. In those without natural lighting, the desire was to create an effect that didn't dramatically vary from adjacent daylit spaces. When a room is naturally lit, supplemental artificial lighting is provided from two sources—one seen, one concealed. Simple spot fixtures hang between the petals for more dramatic needs on cloudy days or occasional evenings. But the effect of diffused light through the skylights can also be achieved at these times through a distinctly low-tech solution. Ceramic metal halide floodlights mounted on poles—not unlike a street or parking lot fixture—surround each skylight on the roof. When used, they can simulate the effect of daylight coming through the tall skylight structure, are easily relamped and maintained, and don't add any heat load to the building interior.
HOK's Weymouth notes that they expect little need for the artificial lights. "Seventy percent of the year, they won't even need to turn on the lights," he says. "That's when you get the most energy savings," says Arup's Shaw. Which gives their silvery fiberglass petals a metaphoric shade of green, too.

WakeUpCall: Wakeupcall
27/04/11 || sly
You're gonna need a few shots of vodka to get through this one. I know I did.
I am going to begin by saying that I am unsure as to why these little pricks decided to send their EP to Global Domination. I am forced to assume they only explored the site long enough to obtain poor, unfortunate Lord K's mailing address. Otherwise, they surely would have seen the words, "Much welcome to the only metal site you need". They key word here being metal.
Not fucking emo.
Let me assure my beloved readers that there is absolutely nothing even remotely metal about this wretched-excuse-of-a-band WakeUpCall. I have yet to come across a group who is less deserving of a mention on our grand site. Therefore, Dario, Matt, Olly, and Tommy: I congratulate you. You're getting your review and you've ruined my day. Your one minor victory. A small, happy thought to keep you company whilst you sob your way through the rest of this review.
I'm not going to waste too much of my life convincing you that this is shit. And fortunately I don't have to. All you really need to know is that their listed influences are: Shinedown, Foo Fighters, Aerosmith, Nickelback, Goo Goo Dolls, Guns n Roses, BonJovi, AlterBridge, Green Day, Meat Loaf, My Chemical Romance, 30 Seconds To Mars. No exaggeration, folks; this is directly copied and pasted from their MySpace.
WHO THE FUCK IS INFLUENCED BY NICKELBACK?!? Influenced to jump off the edge of the fucking Grand Canyon, maybe.
So, after regurgitating my breakfast during the first two tracks, then laughing (crying) my way through their music video (no, really, watch it- it's ridiculous), I began to realize what I was up against. Not knowing very much about the whole modern-day emo movement (other than praying nightly for a complete emo-kid genocide) I did a search for "Top ten emo bands". I came up with this:
My Chemical Romance
30 Seconds to Mars
Hawthorne Heights
Black Veil Brides
Dashboard Confessional
Escape the Fate
Death Cab For Cutie
Fall Out Boy
Jimmy Eat World
(I apologize if your eyes are now bleeding for having to read these wretched names)
Being previously aware of exactly half of this list, I can already tell you that every one of these cumfarters have done precisely what WakeUpCall are doing, only 212% better.
There is not a trace of original material, none of them are especially talented, and I can detect only one shade- slightly brownish.
I shall conclude with a personal note to the little girls in this band: If you really, truly want to spend your life in the creation of music, at least try to bring something new to the table. You will never, ever be remembered for looking like a cheap, pathetic copy of Gerard Way (who is already a cheap copy of Billie Joe Armstrong). Here's a wake-up call for you: the only people who think your music is cool is you and a handful of underage, bleach-haired trollops. So fuck off.
(And no point in rejoicing over a 1. If I had it my way, I'd give y'all a -8)

It should come as no surprise that staff members here at Formaggio Kitchen are pretty passionate about mac and cheese. Everyone has a different take on their favorite – affected by how they had it growing up, pasta shapes and, of course, cheese preferences. As with the grilled cheese survey of a few months ago, I took a little stroll around the shop to see just how varied folks' notion of this classic dish were. Here are the results! (more…)

A couple of months ago, I had the good fortune to have a late afternoon lunch at B&G Oysters in the South End. With a natural affinity for all things dairy and, in particular, for a good mac and cheese, I ordered the orzo from their list of "sides" to go with my lobster roll.
It arrived in a small ceramic dish, hot from the oven. I pierced the crumb topping with my spoon and scooped up a bite. A little puzzled because there were some darker colored bits in amongst the cheesy creaminess, I thought that there was a little prosciutto surprise in there. (more…)

Every two years, the biggest festival in the cheese world happens in Bra, Italy. The event is known simply as "Cheese." Cheesemakers, cheesemongers, journalists, food lovers and folks lucky enough to live close by, descend on the small town of Bra to sample, sell and eat literally tons of cheese. This year at the biennial festival it was no different. With one exception. The thermometer hit a whopping 90°F. (more…)

The terms "double-crème" and "triple-crème" are bandied about a lot in cheese shops. While most folks have a general idea of what they mean in terms of texture (creamy, spreadable!) and flavor (buttery, lactic!) for a cheese, these terms actually have very specific meanings. (more…)

"Life is a combination of magic and pasta."
- Federico Fellini
A couple of years ago, I traveled to Bologna to visit a cousin. Based a little ways outside the main city, the family home was situated amidst a gently rolling landscape populated with apricot trees and vineyards. While I was there, I thought to myself that if I ever left the United States for retirement, it might just be to Italy. The weather was wonderful – hot enough to make you want to swim but not hot enough to be unbearable and the food was out of this world! There were a number of firsts on that trip, including my first taste of limoncello. However, one of my most memorable food experiences was tasting fresh tortellini made by a lady just down the road.

Parmigiano Reggiano: Burglars, Banks and A Fifth Generation Family
Posted in Cheese, Italy, Producer Profile, tagged Cheese, Cravero, Emilia-Romagna, food, Italy, parm, Parmesan, Parmigiano Reggiano on January 6, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Parmigiano Reggiano is essential to the economy in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. That may not be so surprising in and of itself but, did you know that the local banks there accept cheese as collateral? In 2009, Credito Emiliano had two climate controlled warehouses where they stored roughly 440,000 wheels of Parmigiano. All total, those wheels were worth approximately $187 million.
Parmigiano Reggiano was also considered sufficiently valuable to be the target of a heist. In February of 2009, thieves tunneled into a parm warehouse and stole 570 wheels before they were caught. Honestly, one wonders how well thought out the plan was, considering each wheel of parm weighs about 80-lbs. and bears a unique serial number (much like money) to identify it. The funniest part of the story, however, was the remark made by the vault manager after the cheese had been recovered: "Thank heavens we caught the robbers before they grated it!"* (more…)

Campbell changing Gas atmosphere - JT
Bristol Rovers' on-loan defender James Tunnicliffe has praised the impact that Stuart Campbell has had on the players since he took caretaker charge of the club.Campbell, 33, was appointed on a temporary basis after the sacking of Dave Penney earlier this month and has since led the relegation-threatened Pirates to two wins and a narrow defeat to high-flying Huddersfield in his three games in charge.Tunnicliffe, on a season-long loan from Brighton, told the Bristol Evening Post: "Since Cams has taken over, I can't believe the difference in atmosphere amongst the lads. We have a bit of confidence back again now."We are playing a lot better than we were doing, so performances are now coming. We haven't been conceding as many goals in the last three games and have kept a couple of clean sheets, and that's what we are going to need."If we can keep on doing that then we are always going to get something out of a game."

Re: Who are we looking at in the Draft??
it sucks this year, with a new coach we have no idea what he's looking for, in the past we had an early idea on what cowher would draft, now we are clueless for this year
i definitely think, if okoye is sitting there at 15 you take him, he's only 19 so he's still growing, and the dude is a monster, imagine when we play our 4-3 sets, him and casey hampton lining up next to each other, the olinemen will be shitting themselves lol........
but if he's not there, i say we get a OLB/DE and the guy i want is anthony spencer from Purdue
here's a scouting report on him
An excellent athlete with great speed...Playmaker who is very active with a great motor and always around the action...Versatile and has experience dropping into coverage...Natural pass rusher with a knack for getting after the quarterback and making plays in the backfield...Extremely productive...A good technician who plays with solid leverage...Relatively stout against the run for his size...Experienced and battle tested...Good range with a burst to close fast...Very instinctive and smart.
Is undersized and doesn't have either the height or bulk you look for...A 'tweener who might not have a true pro position...Not very explosive and needs to develop a wider array of pass rush moves...Struggles to shed blocks and can be engulfed by massive offensive linemen...Agility and change of direction skills are question marks...Will he be able to handle coverage?...Might have to learn a new position.
Overshadowed by Ray Edwards and Rob Ninkovich, who are both now in the NFL, early in his career but had a phenomenal senior season and really saw his draft stock soar...Could end up being one of the top 3-4 outside linebacker prospects available...Still has some upside and could be a workout warrior...Teams will need to see him in positional drills to determine if he will be able to make the move to linebacker but if he shows well look for there to be a major demand for this guy.

Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) and Time Warner Cable Inc. (TWC) have partnered to bring Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) activities to Boys & Girls Club members. Thanks to the generous support of TWC, BGCA has developed the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) STEM program for tween and teen Club members. Since most of the fastest growing jobs will require some education in STEM, the DIY STEM program will enable young people to achieve great futures by sparking interest in STEM, offering hands-on, experiential programming and providing opportunities to explore STEM careers. Through this partnership, kids will learn how to make technology—rather than just consuming it. By offering the DIY STEM program, BGCA and TWC are preparing today's young people for successful 21st century careers.
TWC is among the largest providers of video, high-speed data and phone services in the United States, connecting more than 14 million customers to entertainment, information and each other. Launched in conjunction with President Obama's "Educate to Innovate" campaign, TWC's Connect a Million Minds (CAMM) is a philanthropic initiative to address America's declining proficiency in STEM, which puts our children at risk of not competing successfully in a global economy. Using its media assets, TWC creates awareness of the issue and inspires students to develop the STEM skills they need to become the problem solvers of tomorrow. Local TWC markets are activating CAMM across the country with community-specific programs and partnerships.

And in news of the weirder variety.Yeah he really did put the cat in a bong and smoke it along with some weed. The cat turned out really hip. Harry he sounds like he may have better stories. Neb. deputies say man stuffed cat inside 'bong' eb. deputies say man stuffed cat inside 'bong' By ERIC OLSON, Associated Press Writer Eric Olson, Associated Press Writer ŌĆō Tue Mar 3, 12:03 am ET A homemade bong, consisting of a piece of garden hose attached to a duct-taped AP ŌĆō A homemade bong, consisting of a piece of garden hose attached to a duct-taped plexiglas box, is seen ŌĆ" OMAHA, Neb. ŌĆō A man who tried to cool out his hyper cat by stuffing her into a boxlike homemade bong faces cruelty charges ŌĆö and catcalls from animal lovers. Lancaster County sheriff's deputies responding to a domestic disturbance call Sunday alleged they saw 20-year-old Acea Schomaker smoking marijuana through a piece of garden hose attached to a duct-taped, plastic glass box in which the cat had been stuffed. "This cat was just dazed," Sgt. Andy Stebbing said. "She was on the front seat of the cop car, wrapped in a blanket, and never moved all the way to the humane society."(I bet it was.) Schomaker told deputies 6-month-old Shadow was hyper and he was trying to calm her down. The contraption she had been stuffed inside was 12 inches by 6 inches. Shadow was timid but in good condition Monday at the Capital Humane Society, executive director Bob Downey said. "What the human mind doesn't invent, huh?" Downey said. Schomaker, who was released from jail after paying a $400 fine on the arrest warrant, faces drug and misdemeanor animal cruelty charges. He did not immediately respond to phone messages left Monday seeking comment.
Thats what i can't figure out,how the cops found out. The only thing i can think of is his neighbors. Imagine how much noise that cat made while it was being stuffed into a box.
Maybe the dood was making a drugks deal over the cell phone... lol I think that all phone lines are NOT secure, but, the cell phone is obviously for dumb bunnies for that stuff. They all get tapped. But yeah, the cat noise sounds a lot funnier...
Yeah this cat will never get a job. Won't pass the drug test. It'll have to hang around the house all day and eat.
Up date on the "cat in a bong" Dude gets 90 days, says hes an animal abuser. He told his probation officer that if he disliked an animal, i "would not be wasting pot on it." Maybe he was watching PORNO too, tht would certainly make him do something like this. Neb. Man Who Smoked From Cat Bong Gets 90 Days - Local News Story - KETV Omaha LINCOLN, Neb. -- The Lincoln man who smoked marijuana from a makeshift bong that had a kitten stuffed inside is going to jail for 90 days. Lancaster County Judge Gale Pokorny also ordered 21-year-old Acea Schomaker to pay almost $1,200 in restitution to the Capitol Humane Society for its care of the kitten, which has since been adopted. Authorities charged Schomaker with animal cruelty in March after he was caught smoking pot from a contraption that had the cat stuffed inside its 12-by-6-inch base. Schomaker contends he's not an animal abuser. He told his probation officer that if he disliked an animal, he "would not be wasting pot on it."

Nurse-Family Partnership
Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP) empowers first-time mothers living in poverty to successfully change their lives and the lives of their children through evidence-based nurse home visiting.
"We've served moms who have entered the program in middle school through middle-age. Our objective and unrelenting duty is to assist these mothers in maintaining a healthy pregnancy, parent their child with competence and compassion and break the binds of poverty."
-Ursula Douglas, NFP Program Manager
Three Important NFP Goals
- To improve pregnancy outcomes by helping women engage in preventive health practices, including obtaining thorough prenatal care from their health care providers; improving their diets; and reducing their use of cigarettes, alcohol and illegal substances
- To improve child health and development by helping parents provide responsible and competent care
- To improve the economic self-sufficiency of the family by helping parents develop a vision for their own future, plan future pregnancies, continue their education and find work
NFP Program Outcomes
As an evidence-based primary prevention program, studies have shown the following consistent program outcomes:
- Improved prenatal health
- Fewer subsequent pregnancies
- Increased maternal employment
- Increased intervals between births
- Improved school readiness
- Fewer childhood injuries
- Participants are less likely than their peers to rely on social assistance programs. A RAND corporation study estimates for every $1 spent in NFP, Care Ring accrues $5.70 in avoided government assistance costs.

Glaxo funds right wing assault on health reform
Posted By Adam Linker On July 14, 2009 @ 3:43 pm In Uncategorized | Comments Disabled
Drug making giant GlaxoSmithKline, which has its U.S. headquarters in Research Triangle Park, is publicly making nice with President Obama saying it will be a constructive partner in health reform.
But the company's 2008 charitable grants report [1] shows that behind-the-scenes GSK is contributing to every national right wing think tank that opposes health reform. These think tanks attack every viable solution to the health care crisis and create misleading and destructive ads.
GSK gave to The Heartland Institute, for example, which is producing ads like this one [2] claiming that Obama wants to nationalize health care. The drug maker also is giving money to the American Enterprise Institute, the Galen Institute, the Institute for Policy Innovation, the Manhattan Institute for Policy, and the State Policy Network (the John Locke Foundation is a member).
While GSK is willing to sit and talk, the company is busy kicking people under the table.

We're not ashamed to admit that we're all about the latest 'It' bag. But we'll also admit that we're so not into whatever Katie, Angelina or Paris are carrying. Our interest is tied more directly to reducing waste and using fewer plastic bags (without sacrificing style, of course) so for fall, we're building a bit of a bag wardrobe.
Bagging Groceries
For trips to the grocery store, we're planning to accessorize with the Grocery Pod. The round shape of this reusable and washable fabric grocery bag means it fits more than two plastic bags worth of groceries inside. The long straps allow for carrying by hand or over the shoulder and the eight different patterns are all a definite fashion cut above the usual grocery store reusable bag (so we can help save the earth in style).
Bagging Lunch
School lunches are just around the corner and the perfect lunchbox is just what we need for the season. Technically you could call the Fleurville Lunch Pak a backpack, as it can be worn that way (and kids love to) but it can also be carried by the handle or clipped onto other bags. Its heat-reflective, easy to clean lining provides great insulation and the bag is PVC-free, Teflon free and lead-free. We like the host of extra features: the insulated beverage sleeve, the hidden nametag so strangers can't learn the owner's name but it can be readily identified when lost and the project pocket for little works of art. Available at www.mylittlegreenshop.com ($32.95)
For something a little more old-school but equally PVC free, the insulated lunch bags from Crocodile Creek are a great buy. Savvy-tested over three years of school and summer camp, ours is still going strong. The outside pocket comes in handy for little treasures and the inside is easy to wipe clean. Available at Mastermind ($10)
Bagging Odds and Ends
When you're out and about running errands, a gourmet market tote from T Bag & Co makes a great accessory. Available in a multitude of beautiful fabrics, the bags come in fashionable 'collections' of three so you can keep one in the stroller, one in the car and one by the back door. Available at eco-handbags.ca ($19.20)
Bagging Diapers
Sadly we're not 'so-young' (mothers) anymore, but we know a savvy diaper bag when we see one and the SoYoung Mother diaper bag definitely fits the bill. Its wide opening, flat bottom, contrasting interior lining and see-through pockets help avoid the dreaded diaper-bag black hole effect. And the multitude of special pockets, stroller straps, change pad, wetbag and accompanying checklist help ensure you leave home with everything you need. When you're finished with diapers, the bag makes a great-looking computer tote too (we're carrying the chocolate brown one to work these days). Available at www.soyoungmother.com ($150)
So bag a few bags and tote some new totes. Green style is definitely in.
We promise not to delete your comments unless they violate these terms, though we sincerely hope we won't have to make that decision. For more detail on our commenting policy and procedures, please see our complete Community Guidelines

Archaeologists unearth 5,000-year-old 'third-gender' caveman. Archaeologists investigating a 5,000-year-old Copper Age grave in the Czech Republic believe they may have unearthed the first known remains of a gay or transvestite caveman, reports the Telegraph.
The man was apparently buried as if he were a woman, an aberrant practice for an ancient culture known for its strict burial procedures. Since the grave dates to between 2900 and 2500 BC, the man would have been a member of the Corded Ware culture, a late Stone Age and Copper Age people named after the unique kind of pottery they produced. Men in this culture were traditionally buried lying on their right side with their heads pointing west, but this man was instead buried on his left side with his head pointing east, which is how women were typically buried. 15 Fascinating Facts About Ancient Egypt. History Ever since my childhood I have been fascinated with all things relating to Ancient Egypt.
I have tried for a long time to come up with a good idea for a list relating to it and this is the first (of what I hope will be many!) These facts should serve as a good introduction to Ancient Egyptian culture and society – and hopefully many will be things you did not know. 1.
