I Solemnly Swear
I hate him to, the only thing decent he did was trying to protect his family.
Like Snape said James was a swine.
That I Am Up To No Good
And you know:
- Saved Snape's life
- Took in Sirius when he ran away from home
- Financially supported Remus when he couldn't work after he got out of school
- Gave Lily a loving home
- Worked for the Order and tried to defeat Voldemort
And it's not like Snape EVER did anything dickish, right?
-Develop dark and dangerous magic in school
- Try to use that dark magic on James
- Call every muggleborn in the school but Lily "mudblood"
- Call Lily "mudblood"
- Try find out where Remus was in order to get in him trouble
- Join the Death Eaters
- Make a branch fall on Pentuina to scare and hurt her
- Inadvertently cause Lily's death
- Bully and torment Neville for no reason, including threatening to poison and kill his pet
- Bully and mock Hermione for trying to participate in his class
- Bully and humiliate Harry for no reason at all
- Try to get Remus fired from his job
Forgot to add.
Harry is a terrible student. He has stolen, cheated, copied off hermonie, been deleberatly distrptive during class, was lazy as all s**t, cast an unforgivable, has been a d**k. Always blames everything on everything else and everyone elsebbut himself. And because everyone else always kisses his a** and lets him get away with stuff, he quickly learns that nothing is his fault. And let's not forget his filter. Just because snape doesn't kiss his a** doesn't make him bad. Remember Harry is biased, for instance, Sirius was ugly when he was bad then became attractive when he was good. Who's to say he's just making snape to be worse then he really is? We wont know until we get a true neutral narrator. But I forgot, Gryffindors are saints and Harry is blameless not matter what. Silly me.
And I hues you didn't notice but every teacher has been mean to the students. The school is abusive towards pets in general and snapes toad incident is not the only case of pet abuse by a
teacher. Oh but my bad, only sane can be a bad teacher, not anyone else.
1. He made spells that healed and some that hurt. We don't know if he used them but we know the marauders did. And they did hurt others other then snape.
2. James used Hexes and dark magic too but apparently that's ok.
3. When do we see this? We only have her word and she is the same chick who was trying not to smile as her friend was being de pansed in front of everyone.
4. He's a ******** werewolf running free during the night. Yeah not dangerous at all.
5. Ever heard of accidental magic? Its that wonderful s**t that young kids get that causes accidents. He was pissed and his emotions made the branch fall, its not his fault.
6. Since the 'good' side did nothing but treat him like s**t, I'm not suprised he did join them.
7. Peters fault mostly. He was the secret keeper and if he hadn't had told voldy the place that they were staying then voldy wouldnt have found them. But that's ok because Gryffindors never get blamed.
8. Lol, that was Remus' fault. HE didn't take HIS potion and HE endangered and almost killed the trio. HE let sirius into the castle and HE as at fault. He showed that he was lazy and couldn't be trusted. Snape was in the right because remus was dangerous.
9. Neville is inept at almost every class. His grandmother threw him out of a window to see if he was a squib or not. This caused his anxiety. Anyways, potions is dangerous after all, they are working with materials that can blow up and kill you. Your a fool to think that potions isn't one of the most dangerous classes in Hogwarts. Snape doesn't need a kid who cant even mix s**t correctly, he's got enough on his plate. And don't forget that Minerva left him out of the dorm in the third book when sirius was running around. But that's ok because gryffindors are never wrong.
10. Yeah, the teeth comment was uncalled for. But this is assuming that snape isn't emotionally stunted and is stressed to s**t. In the third book his jobs were: remus' class, his class, head of house, making wolfsbane, protecting potter, protecting the trio, etc. Out of all the characters he has the most s**t to do and gets no thanks for it. Yah, I'd be pissed too,
I just love how James defenders will brush everything snape did that was good as an adult under the rug. So cute. You know who says snape retaliated when he was a child? The Marauders.
The same Marauders who bullied him and who told us when asked why they were picking on him "he exists if you know what I mean" so what is it? Because he exists or because he's teh evils? We need a neutral narrator. However the pensive scenes are neutral because we see how it happens. Pensive memories are always in the third person, look it up.
And JK told us why he went after snape and why snape joined the death eaters. Ready?
James picked on snape because he wanted lily, that's it.
Snape joined the death eaters because he wanted to be accepted. Thats it.
Snape more then redeemed himself and the ultimate proof is the last book when he still does dumbledores s**t, helps potter out, while spying, and dies alone in a pool of his own blood and dies being hated by everyone. Oh and INB4 he's selfish or whatever. Well snape had ulitmate control, he could have disobeyed a painting but he didn't and a selfish man does not give up 16+ years of his life and receive NOTHING in return.
God damn this is why I hate the Gryffindors and fans like you in general. Everything with you guys is so black and white. You don't even care that there is a Harry filter and thus bias, you don't try and look into why snape is like he is, you don't care, it's just: Gryffindor =good because they do a few good deeds and Slytherin =bad no matter how much he does and suffers.
God I hate this fandom.
I'm not a Gryffindor (Hufflepuff, actually). I'm not Anti-Slytherin (Almos all of my favorite characters are Slytherins in fact; Draco, Regulus Black, Lucius), I don't think that Gryffindors are automatically right (Of course not, actually. Look at Peter. Look at all the times that Harry made incorrect assumptions. Look at the mistakes Dumbledore made).
I don't even think that Snape was THAT bad of a person. (Though I do take issue with the way he bullied his students as an adult in a very big way)
In fact, I was arguing what YOU claim to be arguing: That things are NOT black and white.
That we learn about most of the characters through a lot of bias and filters. Harry's filter, Snape's filter. This is all second hand information, and we only understand it as our narrators understood it. And even then, there is no clear cut "good" and "Bad" for MOST of the characters.
That Snape is not an evil person, but he is also not a saint.
James is not some slimy b*****d, but he was also flawed.
Now, I COULD go through your points one by one, and point out how a lot of your statements don't account for all the facts, or in fact are built totally off assumptions, and exhibit and impressive double standard, but I'd really rather not. Because that's not the point.
I'm sorry if I'm not willing to simply IGNORE all of Snape's flaws because he did some good.
But I would think that if that's what you want, you might be willing to over look some of James and the other's mistakes on the same principle.

Room was a little dated and needs some TLC |

The setting is beautiful although a bit off the beaten path. Nice if you just want to hang out, golf or hike in Sabino Canyon. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The restaurant and bar food were very good. |
The only drawback was the noise transfer between rooms. We could hear the TV in the room adjacent several times. For this reason alone, we would be hesitant to return. |

Fenlon Phone Melts Under Pressure
Nine new players with six leaving means that Pat Fenlon has made his moves to improve his squad at Hibs
The January transfer window closed with a whisper rather than a slam this time around. The rumour mill was spinning all through last month with both Rangers and Hearts supposed to be slashing wage bills by letting nearly all their squads leave fro other clubs. As always, you should never trust a rumour. Other websites will provide the details of the ins and outs but the hottest phone on the last couple of transfer days appears to belong to Pat Fenlon who managed to get four new players signed for Hibs on deadline day. The Easter Road side have signed nearly a full team with Matt Doherty (loan till June), Roy O'Donovan (loan till June), Jorge Claros (loan till January 2013), Pa Saikou Kajabi (signed till June 2013), George Francomb (loan till June), Tom Soares (loan till June), James McPake (loan till June), Eoin Doyle (signed till June 2013) and Leigh Griffiths (loan extended till June) all agreeing to help the club avoid relegation. It is no surprise that Hibs have been busy as their current squad has been failing in a consistent manner for some time now with the club languishing at the bottom end of the SPL. Assistant manager Billy Brown has been critical of how the side defend of late and his boss, Fenlon, has not been jumping to their defence of late. His neck is on the chopping block as Hibs have shown no sympathy for managers who do not deliver the goods. Their two most recent managers were sacked on the day the club held their AGM. Fenlon will be hoping that his efforts will bear fruit in the points column of the table and he can sleep easy on the eve of the next AGM. Akpo Sodje, Michael Hart, Junior Agogo, Victor Passon, Matthew Thornhill and David Crawford have all left the club during the same transfer period. The squad has expanded by a net three players. Chairman Rod Petrie will be checking that the increase in Fenlon's phone bill and the wages going out will be a worthwhile investment and keep the club in the top flight.

Not sure how many of you heard the news a while ago that the new search engine, Bing, hired on a bunch of voice actresses-- including Saki Fujita, the woman whose voice was sampled to create your favorite non-anime-non-manga-non-game character, Miku Hatsune.
Well, the latest piece of news: the mascots have reached their click goal and have kept their promise: they released a bunch more special digital prizes, aimed at Windows users (but not completely worthless for you Mac-lovers).
For Windows 7 users, there's a new themepack for each character, and for Vista and XP users, a new pack of audio files for each mascot character. And you can download them even if you're not in Japan, so-- sweet! Maybe if I wind up buying a new laptop with Win7 tonight I'll have to check it out. Each pack has a WAV file for the following events: window maximization and minimization, alert, battery low, battery off, bing searching, plugging in and unplugging devices, logging on and off, mail and message notifications, system error, emptying the trash, and closing a window.
The characters and their respective voice actresses are:
- Nanae - Eriko Nakamura - Gintama's Matsuko, Koihime Musou's Enjutsu - The responsible, clever, but occasionally frantic boss lady.
- Nana - Ai Matayoshi - Yozakura Quartet's Rin, Saki's Seika Bundou - The cute, young, precocious girl.
- Nanako - Juri Takita - Nodame Cantabile: Parihen's Noemi Creve - The sweet, kind girl.
- Nanami - Asami Imai - Needless' Solva, Strait Jacket's Rachel Hammond - She calls you master in the samples, and now in the new wav pack (but not in the original one).
- Nanao - Saki Fujita - Miku Hatsune, Tokimeki Memorial ~Only Love~'s Mina Yayoi - The energetic tomboy girl.
You know, it's cute that they used "Nana" (7, as in Windows 7) in all of the girls' names, but doesn't that also mean there should be seven of 'em? Anyway, click here for the NEW downloads, or here for the originals, and thanks to reader mattmagician for the tip!

Friday, July 01
SAFECO Field
Attendance: 23,616
Seattle, WA (Sports Network) - Jason Vargas entered this season without throwing a shutout in any of his previous 85 games pitched. He has three of them in his last six starts.
Vargas threw a six-hitter and fanned seven batters without allowing a walk in Seattle's 6-0 win over the Padres to begin a three-game series.
On June 3, Vargas (6-5) blanked the Rays, and 16 days later he tossed a three- hitter against the Phillies for his second career blanking. Friday's was pure dominance for the left-hander, who threw 75 of his 106 pitches for strikes.
"(I was) just throwing strikes. Sometimes, they're aggressive early and it goes their way and sometimes they're aggressive and it goes my way," Vargas said. "I got onto a little bit of a roll the first three innings and I was just able to keep them off balance."
Vargas' three shutouts are tied for third-most in franchise history for a single season behind Randy Johnson (4 in 1994) and Dave Fleming (4 in 1992). Vargas is also the first Seattle pitcher to have three shutouts in a season since Freddy Garcia (2001).
Adam Kennedy, Jack Cust and Carlos Peguero each had two RBI for the Mariners, who snapped a three-game skid.
Chase Headley had three hits for the Padres, who won their previous four contests.
"He was making his pitches, wasn't much over the plate, in and out, pounding the strike zone," Headley said of Vargas. "He came hard most of the game, had a good fastball and a good cutter and he was locating both of them, just made some good pitches."
Padres second baseman Orlando Hudson suffered a bone bruise to his left kneecap while fouling a ball off himself in the second inning. He's day-to- day.
Dustin Moseley (2-8) surrendered seven hits and a pair of earned runs, and walked four over 4 2/3 innings.
Brendan Ryan doubled with one out in the opening inning and scored on Kennedy's base hit to right.
The Mariners padded their lead to 4-0 in the third. Chone Figgins reached first on Jason Bartlett's fielding error. Moseley walked both Kennedy and Justin Smoak later in the inning to load the bases for Cust, who drew another walk. Peguero then lined a hit over the head of Moseley to move the lead to 4-0.
Smoak snapped an 0-for-23 slump with a double in the fifth and scored on Cust's two-base hit to right.
Kennedy doubled in Ryan in the sixth.
Vargas limited the opportunities for the Padres, who had just one player in scoring position all night. That came in the ninth after Headley singled with two outs and was allowed to take second uncontested. Vargas then retired Ryan Ludwick on a fly to center to end the game.

Ashley targets Magpies sale
14 Sep 2008 - 17:37:54
Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley has confirmed that he is seeking to sell the club, following the weekend protests over his position before, during and after the 2-1 loss to Hull City.
Ashley stayed away from St James' Park for the loss to the Tigers, having angered the Toon Army by playing a major part in the decision of former manager Kevin Keegan to quit the club.
A statement from Ashley confirmed: "I am putting the club up for sale. I hope that the fans get what they want and that the next owner is someone who can lavish the amount of money on the club that the fans want.
"This will not be a fire sale. Newcastle is now in a much stronger position than it was in 2007. It is planning for the future and it is sustainable.
"I am very conscious of the responsibility that I bear in owning Newcastle United. Tough decisions have to be made in business and I will not shy away from doing what I consider to be in the best interests of the club. This is not fantasy football.
"I hope that all the fans get to read this statement so that they understand what I am about.
"I would not expect all of the fans to agree with me. But I have set out my plan clearly. If I can't sell the club to someone who will give the fans what they want, then I shall continue to ensure that Newcastle is run on a business and football model that is sustainable.
"I care too much about the club merely to abandon it. I have the interests of Newcastle United at heart.
"I have listened to you. You want me out. That is what I am now trying to do, but it won't happen overnight and it may not happen at all if a buyer does not come in.
"You don't need to demonstrate against me again because I have got the message. Any further action will only have an adverse effect on the team."

These 3 Mining Companies Gained Today
TheStreet Ratings team rates Goldcorp as a "hold" with a ratings score of C-. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation:
"We rate GOLDCORP INC (GG) a HOLD. The primary factors that have impacted our rating are mixed ? some indicating strength, some showing weaknesses, with little evidence to justify the expectation of either a positive or negative performance for this stock relative to most other stocks. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and expanding profit margins. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including feeble growth in the company's earnings per share, deteriorating net income and disappointing return on equity."
Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- GG's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.11 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels. Although the company had a strong debt-to-equity ratio, its quick ratio of 0.81 is somewhat weak and could be cause for future problems.
- 42.73% is the gross profit margin for GOLDCORP INC which we consider to be strong. Despite the high profit margin, it has decreased significantly from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, GG's net profit margin of 0.53% is significantly lower than the industry average.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Metals & Mining industry and the overall market on the basis of return on equity, GOLDCORP INC underperformed against that of the industry average and is significantly less than that of the S&P 500.
- Net operating cash flow has decreased to $274.00 million or 36.86% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing the cash generation rate to the industry average, the firm's growth is significantly lower.

Stage names mean a lot in hip-hop. Some are straightforward, like "Kanye West" or "Mike Jones". Others are created from acronyms, like "KRS-One" ("Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over" every "One". Then there are suggestive monikers like "Public Enemy", and abstract names like "A Tribe Called Quest". Superiority Complex is a great name for a hip-hop group, as it taps into rap's affinity for bragging. With a three-man line-up—Iron Monk, Blackology, and Poisoned Fetus (that last one suggests that the bearer is an "ill emcee")—the Orlando, Florida-based crew takes its cues from '90s-era Native Tongue flows and cadences. The group would have fit in nicely with A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Jungle Brothers, Leaders of the New School, and Black Sheep, as demonstrated by this album's two standouts—"Butter" (a lively tribute/remake of A Tribe Called Quest's song of the same name) and "Club That Much" (for those of us who are too busy to go out all the time—this song is brilliant). As the name suggests, Superiority Complex has all the bravado the hip-hop template requires ("Stand Up"), but the group can also convey the self-doubt that comes with not hitting the big time while watching other acts get popular ("Bad" and the aptly named "Inferiority Complex"). Aside from "Butter" and "Club That Much", the best flows are in "Rightside", "The Rhyme", and "Deathwish", the last of which brilliantly converts its beat into Phil Collins and Philip Bailey's "Easy Lover". As an album, however, Stand Up, is an uneven listen, particularly when the rhymes and beats don't complement one another ("Seasons", "Relax Yourself"). Nevertheless, Superiority Complex has an expansive vision that promises to produce a more satisfying release.

An attorney for the Idaho Republican senator sought to have the disorderly conduct conviction dismissed for lack of evidence. The three-judge panel will rule within 90 days.
Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho, listened to President Bush as he spoke at the National Prayer Breakfast on Feb. 7.
U.S. Sen. Larry Craig's attorney argued to have his disorderly conduct conviction thrown out for lack of evidence during arguments Wednesday before the state Court of Appeals.
Craig, an Idaho Republican who did not attend, is not seeking reelection in large part because of his arrest in a men's public restroom at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport during a sex sting last summer.
His attorney, Billy Martin, told the three-judge panel that Craig's conduct doesn't constitute criminal behavior. The panel -- Judges Natalie Hudson and Thomas Kalitowski, and Chief Judge Ed Toussaint -- vigorously questioned Martin, who had 15 minutes to make his case.
After he was arrested in June, Craig mailed in a guilty plea, which was approved by Hennepin County District Court Judge Gary Larson. Martin, in a news conference after the arguments, said Craig was in a hurry and signed off an a plea because "he was told if you pay a fine this will go away."
Craig sought to withdraw the plea when his case became public. But Hennepin County District Court Judge Charles Porter declined Craig's request and the senator appealed. The three-judge panel that heard the arguments has 90 days to issue a ruling.
Craig was arrested by undercover police Sgt. Dave Karsnia in a sting operation at the airport. Karsnia, who was in a stall, said Craig peered in for more than two minutes from 3 feet away -- so close, Karsnia said, that the officer could see Craig's blue eyes. When the next stall opened, Craig went in and then tapped his foot and waved his hand under the stall -- behavior indicative of an interest in a sexual encounter, the complaint said.
But Martin said Craig was responding to Karsnia's hand swiping and that the senator's behavior was "invited conduct." Also, Martin said, Craig was merely standing in front of a door waiting for a stall to open. That behavior, he said, "has not tipped the balance to guilt beyond a reasonable doubt."
Hudson, however, noted that Karsnia said Craig was peering into the stall. "That's a little different than standing back" waiting for one to open, Hudson said.
Martin said the judges "shouldn't have to guess" what was happening and called the case record inadequate.
When Martin talked about how the senator used a mail-in plea form rather than appear in person, losing a chance for an on-the-record discussion before the court about the charge against him, Kalitowski asked, "Didn't [Craig] waive the right to a colloquy when he signed the form?"
Martin said he did but that Craig did not waive the legal right that the complaint against him be adequate. He also argued that Craig's behavior didn't meet the standard for disorderly conduct because the law requires behavior to affect others.
The judges seemed skeptical of that, noting several times that Martin himself said Craig was looking into a bathroom stall because all the stalls were occupied -- meaning others were present in the facility.
In his 15-minute argument, prosecutor Chris Renz said the plea should stand because Craig failed to show a "lack of adequate judicial review" of his mail-in plea. He argued that by using the mail-in plea, Craig waived his rights to appear and question the evidence.
The judges questioned Renz much less than Martin, who at times appeared to fumble for answers and needed to use his five-minute rebuttal period to respond after consulting with colleagues.
Metropolitan Airports Commission spokesman Patrick Hogan and Renz declined to comment as they left.

While RTD tea posted positive growth in 2012 this must be seen in the context of a low base in terms of both total value and total volume.

El Paso Sheriff Increases Fireworks Patrol
EL PASO- El Paso County Sheriff Richard Wiles is giving us a better idea of how his deputies plan to crack down on anyone using fireworks this Fourth of July.
Sheriff Wiles says he'll have 15 additional officers on duty to patrol the Montana Vista area, plus 12 search and rescue officers on ATV's in the desert.
Deputies will be out confiscating fireworks and issuing citations to anyone who violates the county wide ban.
Despite the fireworks ban there's still one place in the county where you can legally buy fireworks- in Socorro.
But Sheriff Wiles says it'd be a waste of money.
"You're really in a catch-22 position if you buy fireworks in Socorro. You can keep them in Socorro but you can't set them off in Socorro and you can't take them out of Socorro so it's really a waste of money to be purchasing those in Socorro city limits because you're not going to be doing anything with them"
The sheriff says if you do use fireworks and start a fire that damages any property or hurts anyone, you will be criminally charged.

German Federal Cartel Agency Fines Microsoft
Microsoft Deutschland GmbH has been fined $9 million by the German Bundeskartellamt (cartel or anti-trust agency) for anticompetitive MS Office
pricing. Microsoft allegedly fixed a price at a retailer for its Office Home & Student 2007 product.
According to the federal agency, the Office Home & Student 2007 software was "heavily advertised in the autumn of 2008 in stationary retail outlets," among other things through a nationwide retailer by providing financial support. "Even before the launch of the advertising campaign in mid-October 2008, employees of Microsoft and the retailer in question had agreed on at least two occasions on the resale price of the software package."
Microsoft was accused of "actively trying to coordinate the pricing activities of the retailer" to determine its future actions. Microsoft accepted the fine, according to the agency announcement.

My kids have used their fingers and toes to help them understand numbers and counting from the days of 10 Little Monkeys Jumping on a Bed through basic addition. And now there is a new app that uses technology to help reinforce these concepts with your iPad though, thankfully, no toes are needed to play.
Little Digits is a unique app for toddlers and preschoolers that senses your child's touch to help them learn how the number of fingers on the screen correlates to a number symbol like "5".
The most basic of the three activities simply "reads" how many fingers are touching the screen. A crazy cartoony number appears along with a child's voice saying the number aloud. It's a clever way for a child to work their way through the numbers up to ten and back again.
After they get the hang of it, move on to basic addition and then subtraction equations, where instead of typing "4" to the question 2+2=?, the child uses their touch to answer the question.
Though the child's narration is pleasant, I wish there was a way to mute the background music which grows old quickly. And I'd love for the app to provide some aid for a child who is confused by an equation. But, overall, for kids who love to put their hands all over everything, here's a way to channel it into a little math practice. Just check for jelly on their fingers first. -Christina
Download a copy of the Little Digits counting and math app for the iPad on iTunes for $1.99.

Re: TNG remastered
I don't know anything about the technical aspects of remastering and have no interest in re-done special effects. However, I would hope that HD TNG would be a possibility. If Paramount didn't archive TNG in a manner that would permit this, such an oversight seems to stretch the bounds of absurdity in business decisions.

Re: TNG remastered
I ended up getting small cracks on some of my discs simply keeping them in storage because the hubs were too tight, and repeatedly loading/unloading them will almost certain cause cracks no matter how careful you are. I've even heard of people getting brand new sealed sets with cracked discs from the factory and having to buy multiple sets to get a full set with no cracks. I ended up sanding all of mine down because I don't really want to transfer them all into Amarays and have to print out a cover for every case to identify it, but thankfully they started using better hubs after enough people complained, and the slimline sets come in proper cases with good hubs.. but not before thousands of people wrecked their discs. I believe Paramount are willing to replace them, but I personally just backed them up before the cracks expanded and play those instead. I don't see how it's possible to crack discs in good hubs unless you're just careless/stupid though. Scratches on the other hand, you've got to be pretty careless to get a scratch bad enough that it has an impact on playback. |

Re: TNG remastered
It's always easy to be wise after the event. Who could have foreseen high-definition television equipment back in 1987, when Betamax was still in vogue? The priority was making a 42 minutes of television to air every week, not the home video market of the 21st century. |
