Rondo ready for leadership role
September, 26, 2012
By ESPNBoston.com
Brian Babineau/NBAE/GettyCeltics point guard Rajon Rondo is embracing a leadership role.
Despite unwavering support from coach Doc Rivers, Rondo came under some scrutiny when a rift between him and Ray Allen became a focal point after Allen decided to sign with the rival Miami Heat in July. Rondo told Yahoo! he organized the offseason workouts in part to ease the transition for Allen's replacements in Jason Terry and Courtney Lee:
"I wanted [Jason Terry] to play with Kevin [Garnett]. I wanted Courtney [Lee] to see how Paul [Pierce] likes to play. I wanted Paul and Jeff Green to go at each other," Rondo told Yahoo! Sports. "I wanted to play with those guys. It was getting guys away from our actual training facility to get a new view.
"I wanted the guys to have fun. When you're with me I want you to say, 'Man, I had a good time with Rondo.' And I think that's what they did."
That fun extended off the court to a flag football game between players that included actual game officials. More from Yahoo!:
Rondo said the only Celtics that didn't play [in the football game] were Pierce and 7-foot, 255-pound rookie Fab Melo "because he might hurt somebody." Atlanta Hawks forward Josh Smith, a close friend of Rondo's, also played.
"My team won," Rondo said. "We dominated. I had seven touchdowns and zero interceptions. I had a nice kickoff return back. We had fun. KG was the quarterback of the other team, but they had to sub him out because he wasn't getting any touchdowns."
Rondo downplayed any bitterness between him and Ray Allen, suggesting, "People are blowing the Ray thing out of proportion," and said he does not know why Allen elected to sign with the Heat this summer.
Celtics coach Doc Rivers raved to ESPN Boston about Rondo's maturity while disclosing his role as trip organizer earlier this week.
"Rondo has been great, just terrific this summer," Rivers said. "He reached out to all the players and got every single one of them to fly to L.A. and practice together. They put in about four or five hours a day. Paul and KG were already out there, but Rondo got Jason and Courtney Lee and all the other guys on board too. He called and asked me what I thought of the idea. I loved it, especially because it was him that organized it."
Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge reaffirmed that position Tuesday at the team's charity golf tournament, where he called Rondo the team's "best" player.
"The way he played last year in the playoffs, I thought was pretty incredible," said Ainge. "He proved he's the best player on the team. He's a guy that has earned the respect of his teammates and coaches. And I think that's a big step. We're excited for him this year, he's worked really hard this summer as well."

ASI Raises $86,000 For American Red Cross
American Safety Insurance raised over $86,000 for the American Red Cross at its Ninth Annual Charity Golf Tournament, held October 4, 2012.
The funds were raised through player entry fees, sponsorships, mulligan and raffle ticket sales, as well as an ASI company match. Gold sponsors included Engle Martin & Associates Inc., Carlson Law Group Inc., AmWINS Insurance Brokerage, Baxter Smith & Shapiro PC and Hamlin & Burton Liability Management Inc.
"Once again, the day was a huge success because of the generosity of our employees, vendors, customers and business partners, especially given the current economic conditions," said Stephen R. Crim, CEO of ASI and a participant in the tournament, "When we started this tournament nine years ago, we raised less than $10,000. Each year we have exceeded the prior year's goal and we are very proud to have reached another milestone in 2012. We are grateful to all of our employees, sponsors and participants and very happy to be supporting the charitable efforts of the American Red Cross."
This year's event was held at BridgeMill Golf Club in Canton, Georgia and boasted more than 120 golfers from across the U.S. Players enjoyed multiple opportunities to win prizes, such as: closest to the pin and longest drive competitions and a raffle, which offered a grand prize of a weeks' stay at a private villa and roundtrip airfare for two to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
Since its inception in 2004, ASI's annual tournament has raised more than $400,000 for charitable organizations. In addition to the American Red Cross, past recipients include American Heart Association, Habitat for Humanity, Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, ALS Association, Autism Society of America, the Susan G.

Is that normal? If this is a prob, could it be because I'm working with a pretty short piece and didn't have anywhere near 5 fid's from the last mark to the slip knot?
Yes, that sounds perfectly normal. Once you have cut and tapered, the diameter in that area will be smaller. That's what the tapering accomplishes.
You do end up cutting off and throwing away quite a bit of the core. Don't let that throw you off.
And yes, it helps to have plenty of distance from the ends to the stopper knot. In the video I think I said 6 to 8 feet. You should probably have at least 8 feet maybe a little more.
Keep in mind that some rope has a tighter cover than others. Sometimes the same type will vary spool to spool. You may have just picked one that is more difficult.
Hang in there.

1.) MMOTPS with RPG elements. 2.) Large open world 3.) 8 vs 8, 16 vs 16, 64 vs 64 Epic PvP battles with numerous game modes and maps. 4.) 20 Guns all capable of having random stats which change the way they are used. 5.) Skill based game where high levels don't have an edge in PvP. 6.) Clans (All boosts bought from the store are shared among your clan and friends if ONE person buys them) 7.) Buy to play. One price (59.99) and you never have to pay again. DLC is optional and so is the cash shop. Some of the DLC's are also going to be free. 8.) Emerse yourself in the Defiance world and story and go even further and watch the T.V. show starting April 15th. 9.) Dynamic events which rewards exploration and encourages teamwork! 10.) Challanges with leaderboards such as racing with vehicles. 11.) Made by Trion Worlds. Known for consistent updates for there games. Rift has more updates in a year than Blizzard has with WoW. Trion listens to there playerbase and fixes/changes things based on player feedback. 12.) Customization in the form of perks and skills. You can equip one skill and 9 passive perks. 13.) Further customization in the form of two weapons you use primary/secondary and what mods you equip to each one. Combine that with your perk choices and everyone will be unique. Play how you want to play. 14.) Highly optimized graphics. No lag even on lower end systems. 15.) Loot drops from monsters/bosses/events are unique to you. You don't have to compete with stangers or with your friends. 16.) Tons of achievements to work on. 17.) EGO (Level) cap of 5000. This will keep you occupied for a long time. 18.) Chance to change the direction of the show. (Rumor has it, this applies to season 2) 19.) Chance to be in Season 2 of the show. (Rumor) 20.) Play competetive or casual. Each dynamic event and co-op mission has a leaderboard. If you get #1, you get more loot, more exp, and more money (scrip). If you don't get 1st, it doesn't penalize you. 21.) Tons of room for new content. What we get is a base game. Everything is setup to be customizable by the developers. In the future, expect a larger world, more perks, more skills, more guns, more co-op missions, more events, more playable races, more more more. This is Trion Worlds, they update there games fast and efficient. 22.) Hunt down key fragments to unlock lockboxes which contain random loot! 23.) Choose from 3 base types of vehicles with tons of different sub-types of each! 24.) All monsters have a critical weakness point such as a headshot or a huge boss having a weak abdomen and you deal bonus damage. 25.) Interact with characters from the T.V. show! 26.) Find rare loot! (Rarity is color based: White > Green > Blue > Purple > Orange) 27.) Dismantle weapons you don't want for crafting material used to create mods for weapons. 28.) Better than Planetside 2 which is made by $ony. 29.) Play it on PC, XBOX360, or PS3! Whichever one you prefer! 30.) Make a name for yourself! Top the leaderbboards consistently in dynamic events and show the world you are the greatest! 31.) Love dungeons? Queue up for a 4 player co-op mission from anywhere in the world! 32.) Love PvP? Queue up for a 8 vs 8 or 16 vs 16 or 24 vs 24 battle on various maps! 33.) Love large scale PvP? Queue for the SHADOW WAR! 64 vs 64! Bring it! 34.) Tons of costumes and skins in the cash shop if you don't like the look of your character. 35.) Be a part of something brand new and special! Game with a T.V. show! What if it's epic? Be a part of it from day 1 not day 361. |
36. It is fun to play!

37. Events in the show are supposed to influence events in the game and vice versa, creating a truly never before seen dual media experience (or was that just a hyped up rumor?)
Since when is Tuesday a direction? |
38. A single weapon can have up to 4 different mod slots. Applying a mod (barrel, magazine, stock or scope) to your weapon not only changes its stats, but also its appearance ingame.
Originally posted by Raserei This one is severly iffy. Can you validate that statement with a dev quote saying they will never go P2W? Having DLC in the first place means something is up ... maybe just for extra "content" .. however that "content" could be gamebreaking. Most DLC is, buy up, or you are forever gimped!

i liked it,nice list!
only EVE is real MMO...but I am impressive with TSW |
mmm to be honest im on the fence with this game i have done teh beta's and enjoy the game play, and for the most part wouldnt even mind a monthly sub, or something of that nature. for me the biggest issues are 1. while it is a decent FPS there are better ones, that i can play with my friends, and the MMO aspect is lost to me in this game due to it not being RP friendly. 2. im not really srapped for cash but at the same time 59.99 for a game that im iffy on is a bit much to be honest, ill prob wait a few months and get it then ether way. 3. the UI is the worset UI i have ever seen in a game period. 4. i hate HATE HHAATTEE!!!!!!!! lockboxes, it is one of the chief examples about what I think is bad about F2P system. payng out nickle and dime for little bits of content that should just be part of the in game content already is bad enough but makeing me play a slot machine game with no gurrentee of ever getting what im paying real money to get is simply bullshit. |

Originally posted by Raserei lol yeah i have no idea what he is talking about. I already lost count of how many ive opened without spending a real life dime. I never get what i want from those boxes and that sux a lot, but they can be opened with in game moneys. Earn the green currency from quests, use it to buy keys then use the keys + some in game money to get boxes. Obviously he didnt know that. |
Originally posted by Raserei oh i know but i still hate the things and the price for opening them is jsut like most things that can be done with in game currency or out of game. the in game is really steep. although i got to admit they are no where near as bad as PW is about them, most of the stuff in defience lock boxes is pure cozmetics, which isnt to bad i guess but id still rather get them for a flat rate in game currancey instead of playing the slot machine. |
Originally posted by rojo6934 the price in beta for them is not the in game price that will be used after launch. |
1 reason not to play, AUTO AIM! This game requires no skill its for casuals and people who can't hang in other FPS games. |
I thought this game was a third person shooter(TPS)...is it not?
Originally posted by DC1388 ahh so its similar to Tabula Rasa then... not too excited about that. |
There is no auto aim in pvp. Also I hope any non idiot will turn auto aim off in pve... |
Originally posted by DC1388 works for me, im not a "care bear" gods hate the stupid term, but i hate server lag messing up my aim. also to be honest. its a PvE game, and why dose every FPS that comes out have to be a hardcore nutcracking game. i kinda like to play games to relax and have fun not be more stressed then i am at work. this all comes back to my lack of a E-Pean i guess |

KPMG in Mexico takes a look at how local tax authorities are approaching the challenge of cloud computing, by examining the potential taxes applied.
Assuming that the Mexican third party channel partners do not exercise authority to enter into agreements in the name of or on behalf of the vendor, in order to conduct the vendor's activities in Mexico, then these channel partners should not cause the vendor to have a permanent establishment (PE) in Mexico.
Furthermore, if the Mexican third party channel partners conduct activities that are preliminary or ancillary or are within the framework of their own activities, and they receive arm's length remuneration, then these channel partners should not cause a vendor to have a PE in Mexico.
Provided the local country sales agent in Mexico does not exercise authority to enter into agreements in the name or on behalf of the vendor, and receives arm's length remuneration for its services, then the sales and marketing assistance of this agent should also not cause the vendor to have a PE in Mexico.
Where the third party channel partners' and Mexican local country sales agent's activities are the same as those of the vendor, this may cause the vendor to have a PE in Mexico.
All related party transactions must be at arm's length terms and prices.
In general terms, digital distribution of shrink-wrapped software should be considered for Mexican tax purposes as a sale of goods, and hence no withholding tax is applicable. Regardless, under certain conditions the shrink-wrapped software payment could be considered as a royalty for Mexican tax purposes, and consequently, a withholding tax would apply. Therefore a deeper analysis is required to determine the tax consequences on a case-by-case basis.
If the payment is made to a US tax resident who is the beneficial owner, payments for the use of software should be taxed at 10 percent as a royalty payment (according to Article 12 of the US- Mexico treaty).
Value Added Tax (VAT) is applicable if goods are imported or if the sale is considered to be carried out of Mexico.
Customs duties apply only if goods are imported.
Business Flat Tax (IETU) is not applicable to foreign residents that do not have a Mexican PE.
The server must be located outside of Mexico; otherwise it would cause a vendor to have a PE in Mexico.
Where the end user pays the vendor for software in order to enter into the cloud, such payment would be likely to be taxed as a royalty payment, and hence the 10 percent withholding rate would be applicable according to the tax treaty (Article 12 of the US-Mexico treaty applies if the vendor is a US tax resident).
On the other hand, if the end user pays for using the cloud service (assuming that no software is required for entering into the cloud), then the payments could be considered as a service payment, and should be taxable only in the country of residence of the service provider. (Article 7 of the US-Mexico treaty applies if the service provider is a US tax resident).
In all circumstances a case-by-case determination of the type of payments should be carried out.
VAT is applicable on the importation of intangibles or services and must be self-assessed by the end user.
IETU is not applicable to foreign residents that do not have a Mexican PE.
There would be no business activities carried out in Mexico by the foreign vendor in this scenario; consequently, the vendor should not have a PE in Mexico.
Where the Mexican affiliate pays a vendor for software (license) in order to enter into the cloud, this payment would generally be taxed as a royalty payment and hence, the 10 percent withholding rate would be applicable, according to the tax treaty with the US (Article 12 of the US-Mexico treaty).
On the other hand, if the Mexican affiliate pays for using the cloud service (assuming that no payment for software is required for entering into the cloud), the payment should be considered as a service payment, and should be taxable only in the US (the country of residence of Vendor - according to Article 7 of the US-Mexico treaty).

With their feature debut, directors John Catania and Charles Ignacio, captivatingly construct a magnificent portrait of one of the contemporary American theater's great visionaries, Charles Busch. The creator of Vampire Lesbians of Sodom, Psycho Beach Party, The Tale of the Allergist's Wife and most recently Shanghai Moon. He is known for his drag entity, a composite of Hollywood screen sirens from Jean Harlow to Barbara Stanwyck that comments on gender roles and ideals of femininity. In addition to exceptional archival footage of Busch's productions from the East Village storefront-based Theater in Limbo to the Broadway stage and the silver screen, Catania and Ignacio also unveil the man underneath the wig. Busch openly discusses his work, inspirations, and the themes that run through the characters he plays. Julie Halston, Paul Rudnick, BD Wong, Michael Musto, Jason Priestley, Boy George, and Rosie O'Donnell all speak insightfully about working with Busch as well as some of the personal hardships he has endured from losing friends and fellow Theater in Limbo members to AIDS to his emergency heart surgery. As the story of Busch's career unfolds, the audience is treated to a silent, '20s-style short starring Busch and created especially for this film. The directors carefully weave this short throughout the film along with old trailers of films that inspired Busch's characters, which gives the film a natural and unique style. By the end, it is no question that the lady in question is Charles Busch.
John Catania was a staff producer for eight years for In The Life, the PBS newsmagazine on gay life. For Canadian television, he produced and edited the 39-part series, In The Life, Encore Edition. He was featured in Entertainment Weekly's "Gay Hollywood 2000" issue as one of "101 Movers & Shakers." He coproduced and directed the documentary The Boys of Manchester, a behind-the-scenes look at the British drama Queer as Folk. Charles Ignacio received three Emmy nominations as the former executive producer of In The Life. He produced the documentary specials March on Washington and Stonewall 25: Voices of Protest. Prior to In The Life, he worked at HBO and Thirteen/WNET, and currently works as the deputy director for the national marriage equality nonprofit, Freedom to Marry. He was born in Washington, D.C.

The park: Griffin and Kendall are still at the park! They are so boring! There are ducks in the pond!! SO REAL! I rather watch ducks in a pond than watch Superhero McWonderful and Lois Lane at the park holding hands!!! But there they are holding hands!! Kendall wants to know EVERYTHING about him!!!! She questions his past, but isn't satisfied with his general answers. She wants to know what his deep dark secret is. He tells her there are no skeletons in his closet. She feels that he's not being honest with her and assures him he can tell her anything. He doesn't know what she wants him to say. She says he sounds like Zak. DOH! She apologizes and then says she should go. Slater home: Kendall again apologizes to Griffy for bringing up Zak. He asks her when did he die, and she tells him. He thinks it makes sense considering he died less than a year ago and she's trying to moving on. She thanks him for being so sweet and he kisses her. UGH! Griffin leaves and Kendall finds Zak's Red Wing hat on the couch. OH FORESHADOWING!!! Fusion: Ryan shows Greenlee the symbol of Project Orpheus. She says she doesn't specifically remember it, but she's still thrown by it. Ryan leaves to talk to Griffin, as Greenlee says she's going to check out what's going on with David and Erica. Hmmm did David save Greenlee with project Orpheus? The hospital: Superhero Ryan meets up with Superhero McWonderful. Ryan tells him about David's orphanage, but he doesn't believe in it. He adds that Greenlee had a strong reaction to seeing the Project Orpheus symbol. He thinks David is involved in an illegal project and he needs Griffin's help. Superhero Ryan is so desperate to be the hero in this!!! Griffin agrees to look into it. Ryan then finds Frankie and gives him a signed consent letter to release any files David kept on Greenlee. Frankie can't help him because all of Greenlee's records are wiped clean from the hospital database!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To quote Joey Russo from Blossom, WOAH! David's hotel room: Dopplegranny shows up and wants David NOW!!!!!!! ROFL! No ifs ands or buts about it!!! She pushes him on the bed and tells him he created a monster. She unbuttons his shirt! David jumps up quickly and slaps her butt ROFL! He brings up her newly awakened libido! ROFL! He says he has an appointment with the hospital board, but she continues to come on to him. He says he appreciates her passion, which upsets her. She feels like he's treating her like a business acquaintance. She says she wants him and she will have him. Hahaha go Dopplegranny! I don't blame you at all! She threatens to expose him, but he turns it on her reminding her she took over Erica's life and could go to prison. Dopplegranny says she doesn't care about Erica's life, she just wants him. David says he loves her fire. He kisses her and carries her to the bed. Yeah David you better sleep with her! You want her on your side right? After they have sex, Dopplegranny basks in the afterglow as David just calls it nice. ROFL! The fire alarm goes off so David and Dopplegranny get dressed and run out the door. They see Greenlee who pulled the fire alarm in the hallway. Greenlee says oops! ROFL ROFL! That was the scene of the day!!! That cracked me up! Greenlee lashes out at her for cheating on her father. Dopplegranny storms back into the room as David tells Greenlee it's just sex between him and Erica. ROFL! There's no romance. Greenlee slaps him and walks away!!! David just smiles. The hospital: Griffin goes to David's office and tells him Greenlee is starting to remember Orpheus. David knows Greenlee and Ryan are getting too close, but he says he can't let them interfere. Not now. If they only knew what I've done. What HAVE you done David?!!? Oh this is so interesting! Martin zoo: Jack stops by to see Opal who has a lot of food and desserts. I thought at first this was for Erica and Jack. No it's for Opal and Jack. She starts to cry over missing Erica. Jack agrees that Erica has been a lot different since the kidnapping. He gets a call from Greenlee and becomes upset. Chandler Mansion: JR thinks Marissa is just messing with his head regarding her feelings for Bianca. However, Marissa tells Bianca that she's falling in love with her. Oh my!!! When JR hears Bianca admitted her feelings to Marissa on their trip, he accuses Bianca of manipulating Marissa. Bianca tells him she never meant to hurt him, but JR says that if she were a man he'd break her. DOH! He means hit.. JR asks if Marissa's always been attracted to women. She tells him no. It's new to her, but it is happening. This is so strange. So is Marissa bi? Marissa turns to Bianca and says she's not falling in love with Bianca, she's already there. She can't promise she won't mess up, but she wants to see where it goes. Hopefully it won't be that long. They are cute together but I don't want them married. Cus then the kids will be step siblings! And AJ and Miranda can't get married when they get older! It will be just ewww! Bianca gets a call from Kendall and leaves for a family emergency. Marissa apologizes for hurting JR. She offers to tell AJ, but JR says he'll do it. Marissa apologizes again, but JR tells her to get the hell out. Once alone, JR takes a drink. David's hotel room: David returns to Dopplegranny. David tells her if Greenlee outs them, Just explain that it was just an impulse and to blame it on the kidnapping. Dopplegranny gets a call from Kendall, who says there's an emergency and she needs to come over right away. Slater home: Dopplegranny shows up and finds Kendall, Bianca, Opal, Jack and Greenlee who tell her this is her intervention. Wow I'm glad Jack didn't leave this time!!! Dopplegranny is upset and insists she is clean and sober, but Kendall knows what they are dealing with is far more serious than drugs or alcohol: It's David Hayward!!! Hahaha!

Big, bold aromatics of grapefruit, lemongrass and orange blossom lead to vibrant flavors of tangerine, lime zest and pungent gooseberry. The finish has a bright acidity and notes of flinty minerals. Pair this classic New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc with oysters, sashimi or seared tuna salad with a wasabi dressing.
Blend: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Production: 7,200 cases
Chasing Venus wines are produced from grapes grown on small family farms in the acclaimed Marlborough appellation. Griggs is situated in an old riverbed against the eastern hills of the appellation where gravelly, well-drained soils promote pronounced grapefruit flavors. The Ballochdale Vineyard is located in the Awatere Valley where the fruit develops stone fruit flavors and old-world mineral notes. The vineyard in Grovetown, at the very southern edge of the Marlborough appellation, produces fruit with a tart citrus note and the classic New Zealand herbal flavors.

MHA confers 2 Master Breeder awards, one posthumous
By MELISSA HART
Michigan Correspondent
MORENCI, Mich. — The coveted Master Breeder Award is the highest honor given to a Holstein breeder in Michigan for leadership, community service, breeding philosophy, herd management and industry impact.
This year the Michigan Holstein Assoc. (MHA) honored two influential breeders with the award: Roger Wolf of Morenci and, posthumously, Jim Cook of Lowell.
Wolfland Farms on the Michigan-Ohio state line is where deep-pedigreed cattle were produced and quality Holstein genetics were honed. Milking 100 cows on their 600-acre farm, Roger and Karen Wolf and their three children were all involved in the farm.
With genetics as his passion, Roger looked with anticipation at the next generation to see if the breeding choices he made produced the progress he desired – and they did. His success included breeding 10 excellent cows to EX-94 as well as developing many more excellent cows. But the genetics didn't stop with the females; he bred three EX bulls as well.
Perhaps the bull that really put Wolfland on the map was Woodbine Pearl Comet, a bull the Wolfs bought and developed, and later sold to Select Sires as a proven bull. Roger had an eye for purchasing the right cattle as he bought and developed Great View Morning Star, EX 95, who also had a full sister in EX 95; certainly one of the breed's rare pairs of full sisters, both 95.
No stranger to the show ring, Wolfland Farms already had a trophy case full of awards, having bred and shown several All-Michigan and Reserve All-Michigan animals throughout the years.
In 1994, the Wolfs decided to disperse the dairy herd, but Roger's passion for breeding the next good one took him into the beef industry. "When we sold the cows, I felt lost, not because I wasn't milking anymore, but because I wasn't breeding cattle," he explained.
In 1995, 50 beef heifers from Wyoming were delivered to Wolfland and they were the foundation of its present 65-cow beef herd. Roger and his son market club calves, breeding heifers and steers from their Angus crossbred herd of mother cows.
"I enjoy going out in the pasture and looking at the calves and seeing what breeding decisions were good ones and what we need to change," said Roger.
He has the distinguished honor of his photograph being permanently displayed at the MSU Livestock Pavilion after winning Michigan Dairy Farmer of the Year from Michigan State University in 1991. He has also won the Purebred Breeder Registry award twice.
Roger served as MHA president in 1985 and 1986 and was vice chair of the National Holstein Convention in 1997 when it was last hosted by Michigan. He has also been president of MHA District II.
He is an accomplished dairy judge, having judged many county and district fairs. He is also a former chair of the Morenci United Methodist Church administrative board. The Wolfs have 3 children and 11 grandchildren.
For the first time a posthumous MHA Master Breeder award was handed out to Cook, of Lowell, Mich. He and his wife, Berdie, in partnership with Jim's parents, Jim and Dora, operated Janeland Farms in Lowell, where they milked 180 cows and farmed 1,100 acres.
Jim (the younger) was a passionate Registered Holstein breeder and showman. He was an active member of the MHA for many years. He and Berdie were named the Michigan Milk Producers Assoc. Outstanding Young Dairy Couple in 1979 and had three children: Jamie, Jennifer and Cindy.
They sold their cows in December 1992, which allowed Jim to focus on his successful auctioneering business. Jim and Berdie were married 38 years when he passed away in December 2005.

ironman 3 full movie free watchPictures and movie scenes by requestHi to anyone who's reading this, firstly I'd just like to say thanks to anyone who visits my profile and for all the great comments and and messages, I have a fun making the pictures and movie scenes on my profile just as much as u have a fun watching 'em.
In any case now to the point, as of next weekend I'm gonna be home for Two months over the Christmas break which means alot of access to my s****rs pants and underware. Dice part 8I said her that I had been fantasising about her getting screwed by Mark and that I wanted to see. I said her that next time we watch 'em this babe should wear a short petticoat instead of jeans and when it comes to giving a kiss, this babe has to try for a full snog. As always, Vicky wasn't very forthcoming with an answer but this babe did say this babe would do what the dice told.
Lewd exgirlfriend Sarah is flauting it all aga part 7This babe stood up and tried to stop the cum from running all down her body as this babe went out to the bath.
I quickly turned the movie camera off. Sex tape? Well, type of one. Yep, we did make a sex tape some other time. A proper one. But that's a story for a different time. So, Chris, Sarah's fresh boyfriend, what do u think of her now. My Sex Life Part 8 My Midteen YearsThis is the eighth part of my ongoing series of stories following the exploration of my own sexuality as I grew up. Please read my other stories if u haven't done so already (u'll discover 'em all on my profile page beneath "My Favouite Stories"!) and as always please feel free to comment.
With this movie scene I will start to tell u the names of places that feature in the stories. Anna Canine Problems-------- Anna: Canine Problems --------
My impressive daughter-in-law Anna came to me, very upset, very confused as well. But this babe desperately needed my aid. Her spouse had been k**ding her about how hawt it would be to watch her having sex with a dog, and how much some sweethearts liked it. This babe was somewhat disgusted by the idea, even after her spouse showed her a movie of a woman having sex with a dog. BRENDA'S Movie DEBUT part 4"Is this a video of some kind?" Larry asks.
"Yep, dad," Brenda answers. "Hottie," Larry suggests, "let me receive ya swallow to aid calm your nerves." This guy proposes, "We'll see the movie jointly." The loving father adds, "It might not as bad as what u think." Larry goes into the kitchen and pulls out 2 beers. This guy quickly returns. This babe was still looking feeble when this guy handed his daughter the bottle. Anna Canine Problems part 6The thin end of the bench comfortably supported her body weight on her chest, letting her full tits hang free on either side, not being crushed under her body. The broad padded end felt comfortable under her abdomen, leaving her groin and haunches open and unsupported, and this babe pulled her feet up under her hips as John directed, widening 'em wide outside and against the bench's legs, to support her lower body weight.
Blackmailed part 34"No. I don't desire u to watch that movie, Vic."
"Tough shit. I've already seen it. And I'm gonna watch as much of it afresh as it takes u to cum. So, the quicker u perform, the less of it I watch this time around. I promise u I'll turn it off as pretty soon as u agonorgasmos. Deal?" In advance of this babe could reply, the movie started to play on his computer monitor. Gloryhole Trap part 9forward sufficiently to do some vagina licking if need be,
though the room was solely about 4 or 5 feet wide. I looked back to watch that Lauren had removed all her raiment. I heard my zipper go down. I looked to watch Lucy, now kneeling in front me, had taken my panties down. My dick sprung out in front of her face. "Lift up," this babe told, staring at my meat. The Upsell part 4I hadn't even remembered walking over
here! The salesman handed me a couple of dark sheer hose, which this guy need to have picked up on the way. This guy apparently needed the one and the other hands free as this guy entered the dressing room and turned towards... the sink? "What kind of dressing room has a sink in it?" "Oh this is a deluxe establishment, sir, with full spa services. |

Brewed my Beer gt it cooled and in primary,went to take it upstairs,like a dumbass did not go up and turn a light on. Got tot the top of the stairs and missed and must have miscounted my steps,fell head first into a chest f drawers and bled into my brew.Just to let you know hw it turned out I am drinking ne as I type this. brewed and carbed up fine.
Your typos increased as the post got longer.... its the blood!!!
No metallic taste? Or was that just mean... I hope you recovered from the head injury.
Si vis pacem, para bellum Primary 1 - Pale Ale - Hoggetown Ale Works recipe Primary 2 - Secondary - Bottled - Pumpkin Ale bottled and in T-A-D Kegged & Tapped - Over-hopped Honey Wheat, Christmas Wit Kegged & Carbing - Steam Clone
Vampire Red Ale???
Relax, blood used to be added to brew as a fermentation enhancer before they knew about yeast and nutrients and stuff. In fact, in my cider book it says some cider makers would hang a goat leg in the fermenting vat to help with fermentation. That kind of thing helps you to understand how we can get a little over the top with our sanitation concerns
How about in South America somewhere where the village women chew on something then spit it into a pot then ferment the stuff????

We tested 15 kitchen knives (non-serrated) ranging in size from 18cm to 21cm and priced from $10 to $290.
Our testing reveals which knives have the best:
On this page, you'll find:
A decent kitchen knife is a must in your kitchen. Choosing one comes down to personal preference – with different sizes, weights and handle types, it's best to try them out first. While cooks' knives get most jobs done, others are designed for specific jobs, like paring, carving and filleting. If you want these, it may be worth investing in a set.
For our test, one set of the knives was assessed by our home economist for cutting performance and a second set was sent to an external laboratory where they were tested for initial sharpness and then blunted with 50 strokes of an aluminum rod before sharpness was re-assessed. Because it's a matter of personal preference, we haven't included an ease of use score in this test. A good place to start is our What to Buy list: these knives are the best for cutting performance and have high initial sharpness.
Technical performance A second set of the knives was sent to an external specialist laboratory to assess the knives for:

Me and Espio walked along the rooftops of the 'Higher class'. You coild see the rice, snooty atmopher as people walked around in cupcake dresses and powdered wigs. Many of theis people we have seen roming around in the lower class of town, but only to get small trinkets and dodads.
"well siver, here we are. 'The big time'" Espio said, as if we where at the top of the world.
" Wow. It looks so beautiful and classy" I replyed with amazment on my face.
" well that what you'd expect, since we're in the rice part of town" He commented wilst he swung from one of the chimney pots.
" Fair point" I agreed with him" wilst i nodded my head.
we disided to jump into an ally colser to the ground so we could get a closer look at the..umm "victems"
"All right, Silver, Heres the plan Sonic gave us. We go around looking like we want to buy something and then when nobodys looking we snach something from the closes person or stall. Got it?" Espio comanded. I had a very puzzeled look on my face. Is that all we have to do. No robberies, no tricking, just coming and going. So just like always I took a deep breath and nodded.
"good, because YOUR up first" He said suddenly.
"WHAT?!" I commented wilst a shocked look covered my face complitly.I know I had to but I couldent bring myself to do it, well on my own. I've never done anything without sonic or the others gidence. I was about to walk into the sunlight and reveile myself, if I did that, there was no turning back. My foot was about to be smothered in sun, til I froze and couldn't move. I tuned to Espio and I could tell there was a disapointing look on his face and looked kind of anoied over it.
He pushed me out of the way and said,
"If you want a job done right, you have to do it yourself. You stay behind me and watch my back, if ither me or you gets in to trouble, the other one run back to Sonic and them lot and get help"
I nodded and gulped. Espio steped into the sunlight with confedence, as if it was not his first time in theis parts and kept walking to a near by stall, where some people where standing, looking around. I followed shortly ofthere he reached the stall. I watched his every movem, his twitches, his sudden movements, everything so I can help him id he needed it. His back was turned the opposite way to an elderly, but sefisticated man who was talking to the owner of the stall. Espio steped back closser and closser to the man, so close that he was almost touching him. His hand Sliped to the side of him and into the elders pocket. My eyes where focest onto Espios movement. Til a bad thing happened. As I was watching, a woman saw me looking at Espio and her eyes derected to him and she saw was I saw.
"THIEF! THIEF!" The woman cryed. soon Everyones eyes directed to Espio, as he was pulling out the sefisticated elders money satchole. He was caught red handed. My head was in my hand and thinking, its all over, its all over.
The owner of the stall graped Espios arm and held it high, with an angered look.
" WELL, WELL, WELL, WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE A LITTLE PICK POCKET DO WE!" The man growned with an evil snarl.
Espios face was blank with fear and then he muttered "ummmm... well you see....ummm...Some of us need to make a living and I make it by doing this" and he then had a cheeses, inisent smile. The owner wasn't buying. So he did something that was unexpected, he came out with,
" now, now, now, lets be responsible adults and talk about this calmly...... SILVER CATCH!"
he snatched the elderly mans satchele back out of the owners meaty hand and chucked it it me. I caught it, but had no idea what to do. The angry owner grabed Espio and pined him down to the table on the stall. He cryed out to me, wilst strugeling for his life
Everyones attention focusted on me and I quickly bolted away. I turned to Espio wilst I ran and I saw him kick the owner in the face to try to get away, but to no avale. Everyone was crouding round him and making sure he didn't get away. Some of the others that helped pin him down started chacing me, so i had to run faster, till I lose them.

From Barnes & Noble
The Barnes & Noble ReviewIt's one thing to know what's supposed to be good for you, and quite another to incorporate it into your diet. Dr. Robert Arnot is a persuasive proselytizer for food as preventive medicine, and this companion cookbook to his bestselling The Breast Cancer Prevention Diet showcases 172 recipes for change.
Arnot was inspired by his wife, Courtney, whose mother contracted breast cancer at an early age. While Courtney wanted to protect herself against cancer, she rejected the soy burgers, miso, and other foods her husband stocked in the refrigerator because they did not taste good to her. Arnot turned to two nutritionists and scientists at the University of California to help create delicious meals that would also fight disease. A panel of discerning family, friends, and neighbors acted as taste judges.
The recipes that passed the test are organized in such categories as breakfast; soups and stews; sandwiches; main courses; main-dish salads; side dishes; side salads; and desserts. Within each of these chapters, recipes are clustered around three separate culinary styles: Asian, New American, and Mediterranean. Arnot provides good pantry tips for all three, and many pages of appealing menu plans.
Overall, the recipes are easy to prepare. They rely on the superfoods that increase protection against breast cancer: cruciferous vegetables, flaxseed, and all forms of soy (soy, tofu, miso, fresh green soybeans, soy milk, soy protein powder, and soy sauce). The plan for each day calls for plenty of fiber and nine servings of fruit and vegetables a day. Many of the recipes also have notes on how to convert them to provide extra prostate cancer protection. (Ginger Curwen)

Fans To Remember Newcastle MH17 Victims
Tributes will be paid today to the two Newcastle United fans killed when Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 crashed in Ukraine.
Liam Sweeney, 28, and 63-year-old John Alder were travelling to New Zealand to watch Newcastle play in a pre-season friendly tournament when their plane went down.
Before kick off in today's first home fixture of the season, against Manchester City, the two team captains will lay wreaths in the centre circle before a minute's silence.
They will be joined by Liam's father, Barry, who knows it will be a difficult day.
"As a kid, and I'm still a kid at 52, I've always loved running on the pitch with a black and white top on in front of 52,000 people," he told Sky News.
"I'm going to be doing it in a different way, but I want to do my son proud and I will applaud everybody there on the day.
"It's not a dream come true, because it's a nightmare what's happened, but it will be nice to be acknowledged as Liam's dad."
Fans from both teams think it will be a fitting tribute. One group of Manchester City supporters are bringing a banner to show their respects.
But some Toon fans think the club could do more.
Newcastle United says it will create a memorial garden for the men, and set up a community award in their names.
The manager, Alan Pardew, has also dedicated this season to the two loyal supporters.
Club managing director Lee Charnley said Newcastle captain Fabricio Coloccini and Manchester City's Vincent Kompany would lay wreaths at the centre circle before kick-off, and a minute's silence will be observed.
He said: "Our thoughts and our primary concern since the tragic events of 17th July have been focused on supporting the families of John and Liam in any way we can and paying tribute to the two.
"It was very important for us not just to remember Liam and John at our opening game, but in the years to come, to reflect their dedication and support for the club."
The Sweeney family confirmed earlier this week that they have now repatriated Liam's body from Amsterdam.
His funeral is expected to take place this Thursday.
But John Alder's family are still waiting to hear from authorities in the Netherlands about when he might be brought home.
Dutch-led forensic teams are continuing work to identify the remains of the victims of the MH17 disaster, which happened exactly a month ago.
Pro-Russian rebels have been blamed for shooting it down.

Drug-smuggling Australian sentenced to death in Vietnam
Published on Jun 28, 2014 5:07 PM
HANOI (AFP) - An Australian of Vietnamese origin has been sentenced to death after trying to smuggle four kilograms of heroin out of the country, state media in the communist nation said Saturday.
Pham Trung Dung, 37, was caught with two suitcases containing the drugs at Tan Son Nhat airport in May last year while trying to return to Australia with his wife and children.
Dung told a court in southern Ho Chi Minh City that he had been promised US$40,000 (S$50,000) by two unidentified men to transport the drugs, an online report by the Tien Phong newspaper said.
Vietnam has some of the world's toughest anti-drug laws. Anyone found guilty of possessing more than 600 grams of heroin, or more than 20 kilos of opium, can face death.

Slated for completion in April, the building is located behind the Diamond Tower Terrace grandstand in Turn 2.
The new building, known as the SMI Warehouse, includes space for Levy Restaurants, SMI Properties and Charlotte Motor Speedway's Research and Development department, all of which will relocate from a building at the corner of Morehead Road and U.S. Highway 29. The new building will also house the speedway's security operations.
The building at the corner of Morehead Road and U.S. Highway 29, which housed the speedway's administrative offices before they moved to Smith Tower in 1988, is slated for demolition. That area will be used to expand the track's hospitality village and will also include space for souvenir sales and corporate displays during major events.

Ah hah....I'm getting it mixed up with the concept of self talk. The more someone tells you what's wrong with you the more you accept it and the more you play like it, the more you act like it. Thanks for pointing that out bud.

Do any of you know how to save a Tribunal case on your computer? Save Page doesn't seem to work, nor does copy + paste. Is there a way to do it?
When Chewbacca was younger, he lived in the dangerous forest of Shadowlands on Kashyyyk. He lived there because he wanted to explore other parts of the galaxy, but did not know how to get off Kashyyyk.When he was almost age 100, he worked at the Wroshyr Tree. Chewbacca and his friend, Jowdrrl, job was to repair vehicles with a hydrospanner. Later Chewbacca and Lumpawaroo, his father, built the town Rwookrrorro, witch became the capitol of Kashyyyk. This town was quickly attacked by droids, but Chewbacca, Obi-Wan, and Qui-Gon Jinn won the battle.At age 178, the Clone Wars started and Chewbacca became the leader of the Wokkie Army.Chewbacca and the King of Kashyyyk, Grakchawwaa, fought Asajj Ventress but loosed because a Wokkie named Quaagan helped her.During the 2nd year of the Clone Wars Chewbacca and Ahsoka Tano was captured by Trandoshan, a bounty hunter.Chewbacca later that year became a negotiator and gave Tarfful the spot of Leader.The Final year of the Clone Wars: Before the Battle of Kashyyyk and Jedi named Quinlan Vos became a protector of Kashyyyk.(He died in the battle against the droid). After the droids were defeated the Battle of Kashyyyk the battle against the clones lasted 2 month before stormtroopers came in and won. One month later, Looking for his padawan, Quinlan Vos, Roan Shryne came to Kashyyyk. Chewbacca and a group of Wookies were able to escape on his ship, while he faced Darth Vader.When the escaped Trandoshan, the bounty hunter, came across Chewbacca in space and captured him as revenge from the clone wars. Using his hydrospanner, Chewbacca, was able to free the Wokkies off the ship. Chewbacca decided to free any Wokkie on imperil ships.When Chewbacca was trying to escape off an Imperil Star Destroyer he ran to Lieutenant Han Solo. But Han decided to free Chewbacca, making him an enemy of the Empire. Chewbacca gave his life debt to Han. Star Wars episode 4(New Hope), 5(Empire Strikes Back), and 6(Return of the Jedi) occur. After the second Death Star was destroyed Chewbacca and Han went to Kashyyyk to work on repairs to the planet.Han and Leia get married. Han and Chewbacca went out to search for Force Children. Han's Children and (some how) Attichitcuk, Chewbacca's son, had Force, they discovered. In his Final mission, Chewbacca, Han, and Anakin went to Sernpidal, to take people off the planet because of Civil War. Anakin was being pushed by the wind near a cliff, Chewbacca ran after him. He caught Anakin and put him on the ship when the wind started again and push Chewie of the cliff. Chewbacca got a giant carving of his head on Kashyyyk as his memorial.

If this case came before me, I wouldn't have punished, nor would I have pardoned I would've passed on it. That being said, if this was the case to decide whether a permaban was merited or not, which it was, I would probably choose not to permaban it. But, the tribunal is very aggressive in comparison to me. I have a low % on rank because I pardon too much. I have never hit punish and not been in the majority. Every case that I have lost % on has been hitting pardon when the majority punishes. Just keep in mind while you're playing that the tribunal is aggressive with punish.
It doesn't matter how long ago the games were, you are always responsible for your actions. Deserved.

The mission of the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences (GSBS) is to educate the next generation of scientists and health-related professionals in a dynamic and productive research environment that fosters creativity and discovery. Specifically, success in this mission requires constant assessment and improvement of our ability to:
The GSBS is in a state of transition. On the Lubbock campus, the merging of the various disciplines into one PhD program with different concentrations is ongoing. Admissions in Lubbock have been centralized, and one round of applications has been processed. The curriculum is under internal review and revision. The Amarillo campus has recently separated into two basic science departments (Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Sciences). Finally, an interim dean has just been appointed. Nevertheless, there are four specific and overlapping areas of focus that can be addressed over the next two years which complement these ongoing transitions.
The GSBS in 2015 should be a dynamic school with an enrollment of about 160 students. We will take maximum advantage of our multiple campuses, programs, and concentrations to ensure diversity, rigor, and flexibility when preparing the future generation of scientists.
For the GSBS, the accomplishments of our students and alumni are a critical measure of the school's success in training new scientists. The progress of three recent graduates attests to the quality of the education offered by the graduate programs.
Dr. Andrew T. Lovering earned his PhD in Physiology in 2003. He received postdoctoral training at the University of Wisconsin before being recruited by the University of Oregon. He is the 2010 recipient of the Giles F. Filley Memorial Award in Respiratory Physiology and Medicine from the American Physiological Society. This award is presented annually to an individual demonstrating outstanding promise based on his/her research program in respiratory physiology and medicine. He recently received a four-year-American Heart Association Scientist Development Grant to pursue research in cardiopulmonary responses to exercise and hypoxia.
Dr. Anjaneya P. Chimalakonda trained in Pharmaceutical Sciences, earning his degree in 2005. Following graduation, he was recruited by Bristol-Myers Squibb, where he works as a Senior Research Investigator in Discovery Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics. In 2009, he served as co-chair of a workshop in Quantitative Model-based Drug Development in Drug Discovery and Translational Research sponsored by the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists.
Dr. Ayman K. Hamouda came to the GSBS in 2003 with support from a Fulbright Foreign Student Scholarship. He earned his PhD in Pharmacology in 2007. His doctoral research resulted in multiple publications in top journals and a recruitment effort by Harvard University, where he is currently an Instructor in Neurobiology.

text: In MO we have CCW, we also can open carry almost everywhere. There are some municipalities that have laws against it. I live in a very rural area and have been open carrying long before we had CCW. I live on a small farm and find myself making numerous trips into town on weekends to the feed store, hardware store, etc. I open carry around the farm and it is just easier to hop in the truck and not have to worry about it. Nobody seems to mind and some jokingly ask what I a carrying that day. I once stood in line at a Dollar General store with the K-9 officer of the sheriff's office and he asked me about my 92FS. He knew me because he fingerprinted me for my FL non-resident permit. I don't flaunt it and I don't hide it. I just try to be me. In our area I am not the only one that open carries. Now when I go to St. Louis, I CCW because they have a law against open carry.

@Vapovile: PM me and we'll talk. All individual values are is the points a pokemon can have behind the scenes that determine stat growth. 0 means awful in that stat, 31 is perfect in that stat. There's a guy in the pokemon centre in killoude city, the one you unlock after the elite four, who can determine how good your pokemon are. With me so far?
@takashichea: Magneton, Forretress and Excadrill =)
