UTSA's surprising 2-0 start in Conference USA can be traced to improved defense.

But the effort has, in effect, thrown teams such as Marshall and Charlotte off rhythm enough that […]

Video of the Day – Spring is here at Cincinnati
Friday February 27, 2015
Video of the Day
Spring is here at Cincinnati
Dan Mullen (finally) signs contract extension through 2018
It became a guarantee back when his Bulldogs knocked off then-No. 2 Auburn and ascended to the first No. 1 ranking in program history back in mid-October, but Dan Mullen's extension at Mississippi State finally became official on Thursday.
Mullen, 46-31 in six seasons in Starkville with five straight winning campaigns, is now locked down through the 2018 season. He'll earn $4 million in 2015 and average $4.275 million over the life of the deal.
"Dan has done a phenomenal job in leading our football team the past six years, and we're happy to be in a position to reward his efforts while making sure he'll be able to continue building a championship program for Mississippi State," said Mississippi State athletics director Scott Stricklin. "Under Dan's guidance, Bulldog football has achieved a level of consistent success unparalleled in our history, during which time we've been ranked No. 1 in the nation and appeared in elite bowl games. We're proud Dan is our coach."
Mullen's long-awaited extension means that $4 million is now the cost of doing business in the SEC West. Thanks to a scheduled raise for Auburn's Gus Malzahn and extensions for Ole Miss' Hugh Freeze and Arkansas' Bret Bielema, the entire division will reach the $4 million barrier this fall. Every single SEC West coach has received an extension over the last 24 months. Les Miles is working on the oldest contract in the division, with an extension approved way back on Feb. 1, 2013.
And one of those seven $4 million (or more) men is destined to finish in last place this fall.
Dan Mullen will now make more than Nick Saban made when he was first hired at Alabama.
— Matt Scalici (@MattScalici) February 27, 2015
The pedal has hit the floorboard across the entire SEC West, with all seven schools heading straight for one another. It will be one of the most fascinating story lines to follow in the entire sport over the coming years.
But that's a discussion for another day.
For now, it's Mississippi State's time to bask in the riches of a 9-0 start and the second-best final AP ranking in school history.
"We spent five weeks ranked No. 1 last season for the first time, but we have only scratched this surface on what we can accomplish here," Mullen said. "We have created a winning culture both on and off the field and built a program that has sustained success in the nation's toughest conference. I've always said we are going to win a championship here, and I firmly believe that."
Yep, you and your six best friends.

Wake Forest's off season draft has something never before seen in CFB
Wake Forest is one of countless college football programs around the country that held a draft of sorts to divide the team into small groups to compete over the course of the off season…except their draft kicked off with something that's never been seen before in college football off season drafts. I'm sure of it.
Even before the 30 second mark hits in this video, you start to sense that something just seems different about it.
Demon Deacons tight ends and special teams coach Adam Scheier, appointed the "Awakening Commissioner", starts the event off with a poem of sorts, delivered in the "the spoken word" form. Got to be a first right?
At one point, he went on such a roll that the team acknowledges his way with words by snapping their fingers.
After Scheier is done showing everyone how it's done, the real draft of players begins, and you've got love the custom logos and creative team names that each group came up with, especially the headhunters which features the Wake Forest mascot holding severed heads of the Duke and NC State mascots.
An Alabama HS is giving a truck away for $5. Does your school do something similar?
See this truck? It could be yours – for five bucks.
Well, not that truck exactly. This one. The tricked-out 2014 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 you see below can be had for $5 – with a 280-pound catfish-sized catch. (Kid Rock anthem sold separately.)
Thanks to a donation from Shell Chemicals, Saraland High School, a 6A school resting 10 miles north of Mobile, purchased the truck – sticker price $53,786 – with the intention of holding a nation-wide contest to raise money for the school's extra-curricular activities.
"It's going to be a huge fundraiser, we hope," head coach T.J. Kelly told FootballScoop. "We're excited to get this thing kicked off. We're blessed to be doing something this neat and we want to make it a big deal."
The contest runs now through Nov. 7, where a $5 donation to the program of your choice – anything from football to robotics – purchases a reservation in a raffle. The school will select to winners who will be asked to compete in a bean-bag toss on Nov. 17 to win the truck. Think of the football toss promotion Dr. Pepper runs in conference championship and bowl games every fall.
Anyone from Saraland to Seattle is welcome to purchase a ticket, but the drawing winners must come to Saraland and win the bean bag toss to claim the truck. The school hopes to raise $200,000 over the next eight months or so, which equates to 40,000 tickets. If a one-in-40,000 shot at a 50/50 chance at driving away with tricked-out $50,000 truck is worth a $5 bill to you, Saraland has the web page for you.
"This is going to be a big deal in our area and we want to make it nationwide," Kelly said. "We hope to make a difference in a lot of students' lives."
Does your school do a fundraiser more creative than this? Let us know @FootballScoop.

Ready for Love? Yes. For this show? Uh ... no.
Last week we cringed our way through this Dr. Phil-The Bachelor-Let's Make a Deal mashup masquerading as a dating show. They promised this would be a new twist on dating. And all I kept wondering was ... is the twist that there isn't any actual, you know ... dating?
Last week we met Tim, lead singer for the Grammy-winning Plain White T's, in his initial search for the perfect mate. He was introduced to 12 women selected by three of the world's top matchmakers. Two hours later, we're down to eight women, and he's had a sum total of five-minute conversations with three of them. And I'm being generous there with the time frame.
So, my hopes for this show? Not high. Or really measurable at all. Apparently, I wasn't alone. Last week The Voice brought a lead-in of more than 22 million viewers. How many stuck around? A measly 3.9.
If only they'd made it more about these successful matchmakers and how they actually do what they do. I mean, if what they're doing is actually working out there in the real world (and not on this trumped-up game show gig) then that would be interesting to follow and see how it all unfolds. I'd be up for that dating documentary. But this? Is not at all about that. In fact, I'm not really sure anyone involved with this show could adequately describe to you exactly what this show is.
Tonight we meet the other two men who signed on for this ... whatever it is. Ernesto is a man with a lot of money and a social conscience, who believes in giving back, but has never given his heart to someone. And there's Ben, who is a CEO of a hospital, and needs to remain shirtless at all times. (What? What else did you really come away with? Be honest.) I look at these two guys and think, really? You needed a dating show to find women? I find that impossible to believe ... but here we all are. And they seem ever so sincere.
I find myself thinking, "As long as there's a promise that they will spend at least part of the next two hours half-naked, then at least I get some eye candy out of this gig." But unless things take a dramatic turn and this show morphs into something that actually resembles a dating show where people actually date ... or, you know, something remotely entertaining to watch, then I'll be bowing out after this week and leaving NBC to figure out where things went so horribly wrong. (Pssst, NBC?? You already had a hit dating show. Five couples still in relationships to this day, and that after only two seasons. I'm pretty sure that's more than all other dating shows combined through a decade or more of seasons. So ... here's an idea: Renew THAT one. Bring back Love in the Wild. Because that? Was fun! And what we like to watch? Fun stuff!)
This? Well, you tell me? Did you make it all the way through, or were you just really thankful I did so you wouldn't have to?
We meet Ernesto first. He has a close family, folks married for almost 40 years, and every last one of them pretty ridiculously genetically blessed. This guy has made a life out of helping the deeply disadvantaged. Again, I'm thinking there had to be a better way for him to meet the woman of his dreams. Actually, I'm trying to figure out how it's possible he hasn't already done just that.
We zip through meeting the 12 women selected for him so fast we get whiplash, and bing bang boom, we're down to nine. The first group seemed to be the best matched with him, but that's possibly because we spent a whole 60 seconds more with them. Who knows? I would write more about this game show segment, but seriously, that's ... all that happened.
And then bleep, bloop, the women are living together and we see them get to know each other and get coached by matchmakers ... but no time with them getting to know Ernesto. Or even lay eyes on him. Then, blam, pow, we're on our first date. All nine of them. Together. In Compton. Building houses. Lots of catty time with the women, women ogling Ernesto and, unlike last week, he actually spent at least a minute or two with each one. Shocking! (Does NBC know this briefly looked like a dating show? And they didn't edit that out?) Aaaand, more catty women camera time. Whew! That's more like it, NBC. Don't confuse us by making a dating show about, you know, dating.
The matchmakers then direct him as to who he should spend more time with and it's on to the Five-Minute One-on-One Interview segment of this three-ring circus. Whoops! No, it's not. Unlike last week, we get a whole evening with Ernesto and the Chosen Three. Only ... he's with all three of them, at the same time.
Yeah. It's like that.
Aaaand, wheeee!, we're back on the game show stage again and the matchmakers take a go at the women, praise some for following the prescribed program, and chastise others for not following their carefully scripted coaching (which, I get that we can all use a little friendly advice from time to time, but if you're being anyone other than yourself, what's the point?) Then, kaboom, kabang, each matchmaker picks one of their gals for the Bottom 3. One of the Lucky 3 who got to actually spend five minutes in only a 3-1 ratio instead of a 9-1 ratio, and still managed to blow it, is no surprise. But the other two didn't even spend time with the guy. Which makes this Anvil of Certain Doom thing seem both weirdly uninformed and pointless. So ... that's fun. And fair. Aaaand then it's down to the Garden of Goodbyes and Ernesto sends the one from the not-so-Lucky-after-all-3 home.
Just like that, we're down to seven women left and we know pretty much nothing more now than when we started, oh, what feels like so many hours ago. (And, for all that, we still know more about them than Ernesto does, so that's kind of scary.)
Then it's essentially lather, rinse, repeat with Ben. New guy, same gig. Insert new names and, like Tim, another "blast from the past" girl (which, again, never a good idea), a new "non-date" and old drama and you have the second hour of this show. OK, so Ben doesn't waste any time putting the moves on. Or taking his shirt off. Maybe they should have just made this The Ben Show. I might have been on board with that. He seems a lot more interested in actually getting to, you know, know women he's dating. Maybe if the Powers That Be had picked one guy and, more important, one theme to focus on ... then we could have become a bit more invested. Or at all invested.
The shame of it is, all three guys aren't bad guys. In fact, they're nice, good guys, or seem to be. All three of them deserve better than this weird dating/counseling/game show amalgamation ... and so do we.
Which is why ... I'm mercifully giving us all permission to leave Tim, Ernesto and Ben to whatever awaits them (I'm pretty sure it's cancellation) and free us up to go watch a show with a single guy we can really root for. Like, for example ... Leroy Jethro Gibbs over on NCIS. At least I know I'm going to have a more enjoyable hour. And if you're with me on that bandwagon, then come join the fun over at my Facebook page where we have our weekly Mark Harmon Moment. Because, unlike NBC, we know what we want ... and how to get it! Then check out my Big-Time Author blog for weekly book giveaways, all the latest book news and recaps of fun shows folks actually watch!
But before we race off ... I need to announce the winner of last week's contest! A big rousing cheer for Happening Blog Babe Jennifer A. from North Carolina!!! Woot!! Your advance copy of my April 30 release, Honey Pie, will be winging its way to you shortly.
Now, grab that fruity umbrella drink and come join me in the shallow end of the pool where we can ogle Mark Harmon, talk books and dish about things like this season of Dancing With the Stars and The Amazing Race! (Did you love the return to the cheese hill? And what about that pro/am dance-off this week? Who should win? Who needs a fast exit? Come on over and let's DISH!)

I recently overpaid on Ebay for a Sage 8100-3 RPL+ blank. I have fished with this rod's smaller cousin, the 896-2 RPL+ for years for steelhead and salmon. I really love this rod, but have not graduated to the newer sage rods so I have no real comparison. I have heard and read many things about the RPL and RPL+ line, mostly positive but some negative and would like to throw out some questions to the experts here about this rod. 1) Are RPL+ rods made with a reverse taper or something of that sort? What does this mean? Was the RPL+ line a Sage dead end due to the heaviness of the taper? This rod has a really thick butt, it can stop a pickup truck. 2) Should I go ahead and build this blank? I really don't need the bigger 3 piece rod but I overpaid. If I sell it for 300$ I break even. Is it even worth $300 or should I take a hit and sell it for 250$? Is it even worth $250 given that it would be a custom build? Is there even a market for this rod or is it gonna be my new, cool Alaska rod? I do nice work so at least it will be pretty. 3) Anybody interested in this blank? Thanks for any feedback or general info about the RPL+ sage rods.
My personal preference have been the older G. Loomis blanks but I have built quite a few RPL's. Tends to be a little heavier than my Loomis IMX, GL4 & GL3's but great blanks. A little overkill IMO for Alaska sockeye's but a good rod for silvers, chums, etc. May have a hard time getting your cash back, suggest you build and add to your arsenal. Good Luck !!

LAS VEGAS, Nev., Nov. 5— Evander Holyfield is not afraid. Not afraid that he is a 12 1/2-1 underdog to Mike Tyson. Not afraid that his most recent fights have been struggles while Tyson's have been routs.
The point, said the 34-year-old Holyfield, ''is that this fight is for all the people who don't think they can accomplish something.''
But it's difficult to find anyone else here who is giving Holyfield much of a chance against Tyson, the 30-year-old World Boxing Association heavyweight champion, when they meet on Saturday night.
''What do I think of this fight?'' said John Russell, repeating a question. ''Quick.''
''I think Evander's skills have eroded a whole bunch,'' explained Russell, who trained Buster Douglas, Tyson's only conqueror. ''The fact that Holyfield will fight back is not in his favor. When Frank Bruno got hit by Tyson, he fell back into the ropes. I'm not saying Bruno and Seldon didn't try, but they found the canvas awfully quick.''
According to Russell, ''Buster is under the same impression, that Evander's past his prime.''
Douglas knocked out Tyson in 1990, then lost the crown later that year to Holyfield, who has a 32-3 record, including 23 knockouts.
Holyfield, a two-time former champion, has his own take on what he will do to Tyson, who has a 45-1 mark, with 39 knockouts.
''Lack of confidence scares people,'' Holyfield said. ''If you built your reputation against good fighters, then you know what you can do. I'm thinking that a good fighter knows another good fighter. Mike Tyson knows what he's up against. Deep down in his heart, he knows he has a challenge.''
Holyfield's reputation is making this Tyson's most attractive pay-per-view event since his return to the ring from prison last year against the bumbling Peter McNeeley. Cablevision, the cable television system with 1.6 million homes in the New York metropolitan area, is already running 50 percent ahead of its sales rate for the McNeeley bout. Cablevision's novel pricing structure is probably a big factor, too. Cablevision is charging only $9.95 a round, up to a maximum of $49.95 if the bout goes five or more rounds.
The reason for the rate-cutting marketing venture is the public's skepticism. The McNeeley affair was a one-round fiasco, which attracted 1.6 million homes nationally. It kept Tyson's next bout off the pay-per-view airwaves and wound up on Fox against Buster Mathis Jr. Then Frank Bruno was on pay-per-view and the audience fell to 1.4 million. Bruno's third-round fall was followed by Bruce Seldon's appearance, and only a million homes bought into that one-rounder.
Holyfield could attract a larger pay-per-view audience because of his reputation for fighting back, even if he is not the same fighter that he was five years ago.
But oddsmakers cannot deny the obvious: Tyson has charged over his four opponents since his return, and averaged 4 minutes 40 seconds (1.55 rounds) per bout while earning $75 million. In that same span, Holyfield was forced to go 10 rounds in winning a decision over Ray Mercer, was knocked out by Riddick Bowe, and produced an undistinguished fifth-round knockout over the blown-up middleweight, Bobby Czyz. In fact, Holyfield has lost three of his last seven fights.
Still, when Holyfield talks of Tyson, it is with an almost sympathetic air. Holyfield recalls how the two met in 1984 at the Golden Gloves, and how Tyson won the heavyweight division while he captured the light-heavyweight crown. ''I felt for him and his background,'' Holyfield said. ''I was 21 and he was 17. I tried to talk to him about overcoming obstacles. He was a lovable guy that was looking for affection. But whenever I attempted to get close to him, people always came between us.''
Later that year, the two fought for the first and only time -- as sparring partners in the Olympic trials. It lasted less than a round. ''They stopped it,'' Holyfield said. ''We were both swinging too hard.''
The Saturday night card has a payroll of $105 million, led by MIKE TYSON's $30 million and EVANDER HOLYFIELD's $11 million. . . . MICHAEL MOORER, the International Boxing Federation heavyweight ruler, ''has no heart,'' said FRANS BOTHA, who meets him on the undercard.

5 Best Upright Vacuum Cleaners For Pet Hair Suction
Pet dander, fur, hair, skin and feathers are a challenge to clean up in our homes. Shedding is nature's way of getting rid of dead cells so new ones can take their place, but they are a main cause of air pollution in your home, and the number one allergy trigger. To make a 'clean sweep' of your home, you're going to need some strong suction to remove your pets' shedding. Here are five of the best upright vacuum cleaners that, as it happens, specialize in pet hair!
These pet vacuums are all excellent machines; they have different features that are appealing to different customers. Arbitrarily, they are arranged from one to five from most expensive to least expensive.
(For your convenience I have linked to Amazon (which is an affilate of ours) so you can see and read more about them, but these vacuums are avallable at most major retailers.)
Best Pet Upright Vacuum Number 1: Miele S7260 Cat & Dog Upright Vacuum Cleaner
The S7260 is smartly styled, with a thin body and an easy swivel sweeper, both essential to getting under furniture. The "SwivelNeck" sweeper glides easily along borders as they curve so you don't miss a spec as your vacuuming. All of the controls are on the handle so you can switch from carpet to floor smoothly, An extra-long hose helps your reach as you employ the attachments conveniently stored on the back of the vacuum body - a dusting brush, upholstery tool, and crevice nozzle.
My favorite part of this system is that it promises 99.9 percent capture of dirt, dust, and allergens that will not leak back into your house when you change the vacuum bag. Not only is the vacuum's air filter at work, but its dust bag locks instantly as it is removed from the machine. TheMiele S7260 Dog & Cat Upright Vacuum Cleaner is a high-end vacuum, but its features and its 7 year warranties on the motor and casings.
Best Pet Upright Vacuum Number 2: Dyson DC25 Animal Ball-Technology Upright Vacuum Cleaner
Like the Miele (above), the Dyson DC25 glides easily around corners and in crevices with its 'ball-technology," but the Miele swivel is quite a bit lower, so it gets under cabinet and furniture overhangs more easily.
This Dyson model is lighter weight than the older models of Dyson, weighing only 16 pounds. It is bagless, like its other models. Its 'Root Cyclone Technology' spins the air to suck up dust and whirl around inside the plastic bin, so you can see how much pet hair and everything else the Dyson picks up. I will say it's easier to find an earring in the bin than in a bag.
The washable Hepa filter in this vacuum is very convenient and effective - so much so that the vacuum, like other Dyson uprights, is certified 'asthma friendly' by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. It has an extra long extension with a 'beater bar' that can be used to clean upholstery, pet beds, and other items where pet hair collects. Check out the Dyson DC25 Animal Ball-Technology Upright Vacuum Cleaner, available here. (Update: Dyson has just launched a new vacuum (the Cinetic Big Ball) for animal owners that is getting rave reviews for the vacuum. It has new technology so it does not require cleaning the filter and never loses suction. It's pricey but worth considering.)
Best Pet Upright Vacuum Number 3: Shark Navigator Professional Lift-Away Vacuum Cleaner - Model NV356E
The Shark Lift-Away doesn't have 'Pet' in its name, but pet owners love this vacuum cleaner. It's a swivel cleaner with a detachable handle, so that one minute you're operating an upright and the next minute a hand vacuum, when greater portability is needed. The Lift-Away lifts every bit of pet hair, dust, and dirt from your carpet and seals it up with its Anti-Allergen Complete Seal Technology. It features a tool for dusting bare floors and includes washable microfiber pads for that purpose. It has a stretch hose, crevice tool, and a pet hair power brush.
Customers warn that the first time you vacuum with the Shark Pro Lift-Away you will be in shock at the amount of pet hairs, dust, and actual dirt you find in the dust cup. It will look like you never cleaned your carpets before. One consistent complaint is that pet hair tends to get caught up in the power brush and it is awkward to remove the hair, but that did not stop Amazon customers from giving the Shark Pro Lift-Away Vacuum Cleaner rave reviews.
Best Pet Upright Vacuum Number 4: Bissell Trilogy Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner 81M91
Here's a vacuum with no only a great capacity for picking up pet hair and other carpet and floor debris, but it spot cleans as you go. Notice the bottle of OxyPro Carpet Spot & Stain Remover attached to its side for urine and other pet stains. Like the Dyson above, the Bissell uses cyclone technology for suction. This draws dirt and dust into the bin without clogging up the vacuums filters - although the Bissell filters do need occasional replacement.
Customers say the power of the Bissell is about the same as the Dyson, for a few hundred dollars less than the Dyson. But the power cord is shorter, as is the extension wand, and the Bissell is a heavier machine. The Bissell does have 7 height adjustments if you happen to have that many different surfaces on your floors! Check out the Bissell Trilogy Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner 81M91 here; it has a great pet hair attachment for upholstery too!
Best Pet Upright Vacuum Number 5: Hoover Linx Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner
Of course, there's a Hoover among the top five pet vacuums, but this particular Hoover is a sleek, modern Hoover that's light weight (10.5 pounds) and cordless! The Hoover Linx Cordless Stick Vacuum operates on an 18 volt lithium ion battery, a feature that has a two-year warranty. (Don't store the battery in the charger!) And one of the neatest features of the Linx is that it has a battery power reader so that you know when it's getting low.
Pet owners are so pleased with the Linx. They love the maneuverability (swivel base), the low profile base (making it easy to get under furniture), the brush rollers on the sides of the base, the flip button handle switch from carpet to floor, and mostly, the wind tunnel suction so great for sucking up pet hairs. Oh, did I mention, the Hoover Linx Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner is also bagless?

There is growing awareness of the health and hygiene problems caused by pet dander. As a result, there are many specialized vacuum cleaners available in the market these days. They are quite different from conventional cleaners in a variety of ways.
For carpet I love the Dyson DC39, but with the amount of dogs I have, the tubes, filters, and all parts of the vacuum get dirty and are unusable after a year or so. I go through a lot of vacuums. And DC39 is the best vacuum for pet hair. For hard floors, I use the DC39. It works really good at picking up dog hair after I use a broom.
I didn't even read the entire article; it's obvious you didn't take the time to proofread your work before posting. If you can't be bothered to take the time to look over your work before making it public, how can you expect to educate people?
I just love the Miele Cat and Dog. I've had it for a few months now and it works great so far. Thanks for the recommendation. It's definitely the best pet hair vacuum.
i like the shark vacuum. I think is one of the better ones. it it lightweight, quiet and has great suction power!
It doesn't matter with brand as long as a product that works for you. For me, Dyson DC41 is a best vacuum cleaner for pet hair, just sharing my thought here, cheers!
Are you curious about a better solution?? : ) Ready for a cool tool that picks pet hair with little effort and zero electricity? yes, take 10 seconds to see what you are missing at www.SecretKidCleanup.com
Why spend all that money on a vacuum? Why not get a tool made for this pet fur problem?? Curious : ) yes, take 10 seconds to see what you are missing at www.SecretKidCleanup.com
Another good option is one of the top rated robot vacuums on the market.
For carpet I love the Dyson DC39, but with the amount of dogs I have, the tubes, filters, and all parts of the vacuum get dirty and are unusable after a year or so. I go through a lot of vacuums. And DC39 is the best vacuum for pet hair. For hard floors, I use the DC39. It works really good at picking up dog hair after I use a broom.
I use the Dyson DC24, and I love it! The filters and tubes do get dirty, BUT if you continue to clean the filters every few weeks or so, the vacuum lasts quite a while. Plus, Dyson has a wonderful 5 year warranty, and they'll help you with any problems that you encounter with their vacuum. Aside from vacuums, you can check out other great pet cleaners via http://www.animalhouz.com/
Great review. I have both a Shark and Dyson vacuum cleaner. I use the Shark portable for the downstairs spot cleaning since I mainly have wood floors there with a few rugs. For the upstairs which is carpet, I use my Dyson which works really well for projects around the house including vacuuming high areas and even using for my car.
I have a Shark and it is awesome! Best vacuum I've never had - works perfectly on my wood floors, tile, carpet, upholstery. Pet hair? No trouble for the Shark! Love it!!
I am always searching online for articles that can help me. There is obviously a lot to know about this. I think you made some good points in Features also. Keep working, great job! Click here for best pet insurance for dogs
I like the shark or the dyson . More often then not they offer the most suction.
Miele S7260 Cat Dog is a great vacuum for pet hair.
I have to add that if you don't mind spending the money, the Kirby is truly the best. It's the 1st vacuum I've had that I haven't "killed" with fur and dust. I borrowed my friend's Dyson pet vacuum to compare and with a very open mind I tried them both. The Kirby is much more powerful. With allergies in my own family, I need to have the best and the Kirby is amazing.

On Sunday June 16 2013, please join Keep Six Exhibits as we host the second annual BLOCKS T.O., an exciting urban adventure in Toronto. Adventure around Toronto then enjoy a closing reception in the Art Bar!
BLOCKS T.O. engages teams of young and old in a car-free urban scavenger hunt, exploring how Toronto's architecture has framed the city's constantly evolving communities. BLOCKS T.O. is a one-day adventure that will enhance understanding between generations by exploring architecture, design and urban navigation.
Using archival photos from the early 1900's, player-pairs will have four hours to identify long-standing buildings and locations in the here-and-now. Teams will visit locations throughout the city on foot, by public transit or by bike to collect points by finding and photographing the building or location, and getting as close as possible to the footprint of the original photographer.
BLOCKS T.O. teams will explore and re-imagine the city's architecture and design, documenting how buildings from the past continue to shape communities, block by block. This is an opportunity to celebrate buildings and neighbourhoods; city blocks that hold countless stories of people and cultures that have lived, grown and continue in these shared spaces. BLOCKS T.O. is a wonderful opportunity for everyone to experience this great city on a whole new level and we hope you will join us!
Cost: $50 per team, includes full day of fun + closing reception
To purchase tickets or for more information about Keep Six Exhibits and BLOCKS T.O. please visit our website www.keep6.ca or contact Rafi Ghanaghounian, Executive Director, Keep Six Exhibits.

So, I'm gearing up for my first time teaching in Relief Society this coming Sunday. The topic's forgiveness (Elder Faust's talk in the last conference where he talked about the Amish people and how quick they were to forgive the killer).
I'm kinda stuped as what to assist me in the lesson… my aunt happened to write an article that Elder Faust quotes in his talk, so I looked it up. But, it is a newspaper article. Is that OK to use that kind of thing in a lesson?
Does it bug you when someone uses a little out of the mainstream item in a lesson (aka, not scriptures or a talk by one of the GA's)?
Does it bug you when they don't?
What are your main pet peeves about RS lessons in general.
Remember, you can be anonymous here… and I'll have to forgive you since that's what my lesson is on.
When I taught RS, I used every possible resource – even the ones that weren't "mainstream". My personal opinion, for whatever it matters, is that the lessons are always so much more profound and deep reaching when the teacher uses a variety of resources, personal experiences, etc. to get the point across. You never know which part of the lesson will reach someone. . .
That said – GOOD LUCK! Teaching RS was the most difficult and one of the most rewarding callings I've ever had!!!!
Hilary, you are a natural for this calling. I'm looking forward to your lessons. I like hearing references from other sources, but that's just my opinion. Personal experiences make things more interesting too. The challenge is to follow the spirit without imposing our own views too heavily…and of course, making sure the audience participation doesn't get out of control. I have no doubt you will teach us all a thing or two.
It does bother me when people uses resources that are way "off base" or totally inappropriate, but like I've told you, if it's good enough for President Faust, I think it should be fine.
My other pet peeve in lessons is when the teacher talks the whole time and never asks questions or leads any discussions.
Dang-I knew I was goiong to miss your lesson. I think if you're very selective and choose quotes or commentary not from the lesson or scripture is okay. I know when Phil teaches GD he reads so many commentaries. It you stay on course of the topic and it's something a church leader would say it's only going to add to the lesson. I remember that talk and mentioning the Amish and the car accident was so real to us and we could relate and we remember this is REAL. You're going to do great!
I taught RS for 3 years and always used outside references. However, I was told at the time that church headquarters had asked teachers not to use any material that wasn't from the lesson or from a GA/Ensign Article. I never was really able to ahdere to it for all the same reasons the commenters before me mentioned. But being in Utah, it was a visible problem the people used the words of church "scholars" synonymously with the words of the general authorities. As long as you make note that this is the gospel according to such-and-such and not doctrine, I think you're fine. A lot of other people have ways of putting things that make sense to the average Joe. Or Jolene as the case may be.

Ana Ivanovic is sickly skinny.
I did a google image search on her and she was smoking hot when she had some meat on her.
Now she's so damned anorexic skinny...Gaunt. |
That's worrying indeed.
Pix or troll thread.
Australian Open
2008: 2010: 2012: |
^^ Eww look at her arm :{0}
But she sure was moving around pretty well in her last match.
I still think she's going to get blown off the court by Kvitova though. |
Well, the arm picture is a bit extreme, but I too noticed that her face had lost the cute and looked "old"
Tennis is a sport where being skinny-muscular can be a really good thing, though. If it helps her to keep that kind of body, she should, and worry about being ideally pretty once she retires.
Maybe she's on a serbian glutenfree diet ;)
– Her arms are indeed skinny, but she also have no more breast at all :( (not that it was that big before, but surely nicer than now) – |
the pic is bad but its also a different angle with different lighting.
theres a better pic. i think she has lost too much weight. but it seems to be helping her so.. |
She used to be a babe. |
We need Aykhan Mammadov's opinion on this matter.
You can find those kind of pics from so many female and male players...
A few other photos from ivanovic at this year's AO: And the complete gallery: http://www.australianopen.com/en_AU/....html?start=19 I think she looks completely fine :) |
She looks the same to me.
She's definitely lost some weight.
Fat/chubby people who lose weight quickly tend to look a little skinny because they'll lose the most fat around the most active parts of her body, the weight isn't distributed properly. If you look at the pic of her in the pink shorts she actually looks in great shape, I think it's a great move by her and is benefitting her game.
Sorry, she's smokin' hot....

NFL Injury Report
Last updated 11/16/14
Atlanta Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff told
reporters – including D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution –
that the team is putting working on quarterback Matt Ryan's contract extension
on the back burner for a few weeks until after the NFL Draft.
"There is no time frame on it right now and I don't want to
keep you hanging on it, but I feel confident that things are going to be taken
care of when the time is proper," Dimitroff said.
The Falcons have been working to reduce salaries over the
offseason in order to provide enough cap space to fit a new contract for Ryan.
Some of the cuts included veteran running back Michael Turner, defensive end
John Abraham and cornerback Dunta Robinson.
Dimitroff said Atlanta is in a "comfortable situation" with
its QB, adding that Ryan and the Falcons "are feeling good about making sure
that this gets done at the right time." Whenever a deal is completed, it's
expected to surpass the $120.6 million deal Joe Flacco recently signed with the
Baltimore Ravens. There has been speculation that it will land between $127
million and $138 million.

SL Green To Sell Minority Stake In 521 Fifth Avenue
SL Green Realty Corp. (NYSE: SLG) today announced an agreement to sell a 49.5% equity interest in 521 Fifth Avenue for $72 million to Plaza Global Real Estate Partners, a venture between Quantum Global Real Estate and LaSalle Investment Management. The transaction is expected to close before year-end 2012.
Upon closing, the Company anticipates it will refinance the in-place $150 million mortgage with a new $170 million mortgage financing. SL Green will receive approximately $86 million in net proceeds from the completed transaction.
521 Fifth Avenue, a boutique office building located on the northeast corner of Fifth Avenue and East 43rd Street, was initially acquired by a joint venture led by SL Green in 2006 with SL Green taking full ownership in 2011.
Andrew Mathias, President of SL Green, commented, "The partial sale unlocks proceeds we intend to use to fuel our continued growth and allows us to benefit from the potential of this well located, top-quality asset. We look forward to continuing our successful track record of building value for joint venture partners with Quantum Global and LaSalle. This investment again highlights Manhattan's extraordinary appeal to leading institutional investors."
Antoine Castro, Managing Director of Quantum Global Real Estate, said, "This reinforces Plaza's commitment to buying core properties in leading locations. It also underlines our strategy to acquire value-preserving premium assets. We are enthusiastic about partnering with New York's premier office landlord in this iconic property." Simon Marrison, Europe CEO, LaSalle Investment Management, added, "We are very excited that 521 Fifth Avenue is Plaza's first investment in New York City. It is a great location for office and retail tenants alike, and we have a strong partner in SL Green. We expect it to be a long-term quality investment." The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and there can be no assurance as to when the conditions precedent contemplated in the sale agreement will be fulfilled, or that the transaction will be consummated.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I am the AC who wrote that vision I had when I was 15. I tuned 44 today. So it begins. Does anyone have any questions or need any encouragement?

If You serve God out of FEAR because he will burn you alive forever..you are NOT loving HIM..you are only loving yourself..because every word you say..and thing you do..is NOT done out of LOVE for him,,which is what he requires..its done ONLY to save your own backside from the flames.
If that is your main focus and motivation..you have not had a revelation of His grace as yet.
You will though.
Not too long ago..bout three years ago..I too went around screaming out doom and death and torment. I didnt see anyone respond..and those that did..didnt last long. their HEART was not in it because they ONLY "Repented" as an act of self preservation...NOT because they actually LOVED the lord with all the heart and all their soul and all their strength..AS he requires.
If yu are serving God out of fear...you are doing it for the WRONG reason..and GOD KNOWS the heart..he knows if you really LOVE Him.
And he is not a blackmailer..so why keep using blackmail to try to win people?
Thats what the pharisees were so good at. never GOOD news..only BAD.
Anonymous Coward 17104373
You like to twist peoples words, he not saying he serving God out of fear he pointing out that harsh words are used to save souls and that your newager approach is not going to save souls because you dont understand cause have pride. Fact is all those in Heaven even though they Love God also Fear God.
Fear of God is respect of Gods power, those whom don't fear God are with pride and arrogance. the world is evil and mankind shall reap as they have sown, great shall be the mourning in coming years and what ye think is hard that ye been through is nothing to what you will be going through soon.
spiritoftruth111 33441012
What..you mean the boils and agony and such that you warned about?
Is that Gods way or FORCING me to love him? If I Love God it is because I WANT to because he first Loved me..and poured out His Blood on the cross when I DIDNT deserve it..HIS GRACE..and that He took uppon himself MY punishment that I should have recieved for MY wrongdoings.
But YOU reckon His sacrifice was not enough..that he has to BLACKMAIL people with threats and fear and terror and torture and doom and satanic excruciation..
Well..to be like the God YOU seem to worship..I might go find my self a woman I like..and stalk her and threaten to torture her is she refuses my offer of a date..
Men who do that are sick..but..seeing as YOU want to BE God..or just LIKE Him and use His methods and all..I can imgine you doing that as a way of winning a womans heart.
I feel sorry for you really..you have NO understanding of HIS GRACE..only torture and threats and agony and doom.
As for FEAR of God..yes..I fear Him..as in I respect him and Honour Him..but cower and grovel and cringe in TERROR of my wondeful loving Father??
If MY children cringed in terror and fear every time they were around me..it says something about the kind of ratbag father I am to make em fear and cringe.
But I love my kids and they know it..they RESPECT me yes..but they happilly cavort around me in sheer joy and love of their dad.
And our heavenly father is SO much more of a father that we could ever be.

I don't think you are listening to what is being said I actually am the Jesus you speak of and have warned you directly for your own good, I have told you what heavens see ye as and others I've spoken too and told ye all reason why you need to repent. You are speaking from pride so devil uses your tongue to twist the intention of the WORD given. Ye do not understand Gods way we look at it from eternity not the moment of time man sees, the greater good always comes first. If people suffering agony on earth saves them from suffering agony forever, we will suffer that those events take place this does not mean we take pleasure in tormenting mankind we just allow it to occur because eternally it is beneficial to their souls.
The boils shall only come upon ye if you don't repent, before that time even arrives for the world mankind shall go through worst time in history, people will have to watch their own children starve to death this is only a small example of what mankind has brought upon them-self, the amount of evil that has occurred throughout all time is enough to open the mouth of Hell and before this world comes to it end it will open into the dimension of man. My focus is on saving the souls from eternal damnation if I have to suffer that karma 'reap as sow' comes back upon the world to do so I will, it is in my power to break the seals which bring forth the end time events and I tell you this soon I will break the seals, the Lion shall overcome all and shall break the seals upon the mount then woe shall come upon all nations and even Israel shall have hardship before being redeemed.
I saith unto ye to repent and let go of your pride it has overtaken ye like weeds.
God 33441012
