POSTED: Wednesday, September 26, 2012 - 4:44pm
UPDATED: Tuesday, October 2, 2012 - 5:45pm
TYLER — If you enjoy military stuff like I do, then you need to read this book.
It's called "No Easy Day".
It was writtne by one of the Navy Seals who killed Osama Bin Laden.
His real name of course is not used. He wrote the book under the pen name of "Mark Owen".
I know there have been repercussions from the book.
Director of Defense, Leon Panetta, says he may punish the writer, but Mr. Panetta needs to cool his jets.
There is nothing in the book that is super secret.
It's about the course of events that lead to the fateful day of getting Bin Laden.
My favorite part is about how stupid Bin Laden's brother was. If you've ever seen the movie "Sergeant York", you'll really enjoy that part.
Toward the end of the book, Mark Owen says people ask him all the time how they can better serve our country... most of these folks could never be a navy seal or serve on that sort of level.
Owen makes two great suggestions:
First, he says "don't just live, but live for a bigger purpose than yourself."
Boy, do a lot of us need to hear that.
He says "be an asset to family, community and country."
The second suggestion is to donate time and money to an organization which supports wounded warriors.
You have a chance to that this Saturday in Tyler.
KETK is proud to be one of the many sponsors presenting a sporting clays shoot benefiting Texas Wounded Warriors.
It's at Rose City Flying Clay shooting range on Smith County Road 485 off North Loop 323 in Tyler.
The shoot lasts all day, and the Warriors get there about 11:00. They'll shoot too.
Sign up to be on a shooting team, or just drop by and say thank you. They have done so much for us, and we need to give back to them.
That's my point of view whats yours?
You can email me at firstname.lastname@example.com [2] ot facebook me at Facebook.com/KETK Neal Barton.

Its National Pancake Day!
Ahh, one of the best days of the season has arrived: National Pancake Day, the day when IHOP (arguably, the most beloved pancake destination in the country) partners with the Children's Miracle Network and others to fundraise for local charities. But the goodness does not stop there: Once guests are asked to consider making their own donation, they will receive a free stack of warm, buttermilk pancakes straight off the griddle. Yum!
Whether it's the savory dinner flapjack you're after, like these ham and pea cakes with chive butter, or the mouthwateringly sweet kind, such as these apple pie pancakes with maple walnuts, the world-famous pancakes at this 54-year-old family chain will be sure to satisfy your craving.
"The money that's raised by the Children's Miracle Network events and campaigns such as National Pancake Day are used to purchase the state of the art pediatric medical equipment and research grants," Stephanie Nicholas from the Children's Miracle Network of Tallahassee told a local Florida news network, wtxl.tv, this morning. This year, IHOP has set the bar high in hopes of raising $3 million dollars for charity–and with more than 1,500 IHOP diners participating, the odds look high!
Pancake lovers can visit their local IHOP all day and all night until 10 P.M. to receive their sizzling pile of deliciousness. Can't make it to a local IHOP today? Woman's Day has got you covered if you're looking to honor IHOP's 8-year-tradition from home with this stack of our best pancake recipes ever. Take it easy tonight, and whip up these mashed potato pancakes with frizzled onions for your family, and donate to the Children's Miracle Network online here. And if you need a little inspiration to get you hoppin', let this California father of 3-year-old daughter, Allie, wow you with his own artistic hotcake creations.
How will you celebrate National Pancake Day?

Snowboarding Essentials
From helmets to boards, performance and comfort are high on this year's list
By Sean O'Brien
With in-the-trees riding the rage, helmets have been rescued from dork-brigade status. Leedom, Red, and Giro all offer noggin protection that looks good and doesn't impede performance. The easy-glide vent technology of the Giro Ravine ($125) makes air-flow control a breeze. The Giro Bugaboo ($80) was designed for kids, with light weight in mind, and can be traded in for $20 off another helmet when junior is ready for a larger size. If helmets aren't your thing (tsk, tsk), wear a beanie. The acrylic Morrow Racer ($25) or Turtle Fur's wool and fleece EcoWool Beanie ($12.50) both provide hassle-free warmth for the head and ears.
While snowboarding's Olympic debut was suitably scandalous, the masses thronging to sideways sliding these days aren't the green-haired punks of yore. You no longer have to look or act age 17 to enjoy snowboarding, and performance and comfort — not attitude — are the catchwords this year. This season's quiet revolution is toward snowboarding jackets with high-end
fabrics like Gore-Tex and Polartec, a broad color palette reflecting the sport's new diversity, and more venting and layering options than ever. Silhouettes have normalized — baggy extremes are gone, replaced by designs dictated by the technical needs of the rider. The Westbeach Dylan II ($350) incorporates ample venting through the chest and
back, a roll-away hood, and taped seams. Similar high-end features are found on Bonfire's Platinum Jacket 2 ($305), which has an articulated hood that maximizes peripheral vision — preventing your heelside turns from becoming demolition derbies. Looking for a technical jacket without the wallet sting? Helly Hansen's
Grinder ($160) and the new Power Girl Parka from Cold As Ice ($198) are mid-priced performers offering technical features and designs once found only on high-end outerwear.
Waterproof, breathable, easy to vent, and tough enough to handle inadvertent butt slides: These are all-important traits for snowboarding pants. Burton's Tri-lite ak ($270) are top-of-the-line Gore-Tex pants specifically designed to maximize a snowboarder's range of motion. Sessions JL Vortex ($220) will never be confused
with those powder-puff poser pants cowering in the base lodge. These Gore-Tex workhorses have side zips, taped seams, and fleece lining at the knees and seat to make resting more comfortable. The Cold As Ice Paint Box Pants ($150) offer women snowboarders figure-flattering styling, insulation options, and the now-mandatory waterproof/breathable
performance — all in a mid-priced package.
Nothing robs confidence like fogged-up eyewear. Luckily, the feline Oakley Racing Jacket ($125) has ample venting in its solid, hingeless frame — as well as wide lenses for full range of vision. Even on bluebird-sky days you need a quality glove. The Da Kine Ranger ($75) has removable fleece liners for versa-tility
and a soft amara MSD (Mucous Storage Device) nose wipe you'll almost instantly love (sick but true). After a dozen runs, you're gonna need a drink. The new, insulated CamelBak SnoBowl ($53) comfortably molds to your back and stows 50 ounces of cotton-mouth relief.
Step-in boots and bindings now offer convenience and a level of performance even pro snowboarders respect, so some say it's just a matter of time before strap bindings and soft boots are relegated to the ash heap of
snowboarding history. But hold on. Deep powder, backcountry riding with long walks, and halfpipe hits are still areas where strap bindings excel. The new Sims Posi-Link binding ($179) offers a heat-treated aluminum baseplate and ratchet buckle, and a baseplate extension (called a Power Ramp) that increases leverage on toeside turns and reduces toe
drag. Couple this with Northwave's new The Master soft boot ($269), with its ankle-protecting Biomex technology, and you have a winning setup. But there's good reason why the whole snowboarding world is abuzz about the Burton SI Ruler boot ($230) and Burton SI (step-in) binding ($170). After years of threatening to make a
step-in, Burton finally has its team riders' seal of approval on the system. The result is an external highback binding that allows the boot to remain soft and flexible, and a boot-to-binding attachment system without vibration-prone metal-to-metal contact. The only question is, will the system live up to its hype?
Try out any new snowboard this year and odds are it will work pretty well. After years of refinement, sidecuts are dialed, boards are relatively light and durable, and inserts don't pull out anymore. Drastic changes are hard to find, but refinements abound. For example, Lib Technologies' Emma Peel was introduced in '91 and has been tweaked ever since.
This year's model ($408) features a Teflon titanium base material for low drag and high speeds, and a wood core that uses encapsulated air to reduce weight. The Ride Timeless ($450) uses a tip-to-tail wood core with strips of carbon-fiber on top and strips of kevlar underneath for a fast, chatter-free ride.

Reggie Bush turned his ankle last night playing in an ESPN made up basketball game. I couldn't believe it when I somehow flipped on to the starting line-ups and both Bush and LT (the cry baby) were playing basketball. How do their teams let them do this? I would forbid BASKETBALL in any contract. Way too easy to get hurt.
Heck, I remember high school football coaches telling players to stay away from basketballl during the season. Basketball, motorcycles, surfing, etc., should be on the prohibited list for NFL players.
I watched two guys snap their Achilles playing basketball, imagine if a Patriots guy was playing some celebrity game (not even a charity game) and snaps thier Achilles. I just couldn't believe that the two highest profile RB in the legaue were allowed to do this.
Black hip-hop culture and basketball are so intertwined. One of the stupidest trends this past year was seeing players do the "jump-shot" motion after scoring a touchdown or making a big play. Don't know who started that, but I hope it ends before next season.
Bush is off to a great start, isn't he? Taunt Urlacher and backflip into the end zone in the NFCCG, this, not to mention maybe accepting a lot of money while at USC from a potential agent or whatever. **** Him. I have less respect for him than I do for a lawn maintenance guy or other workman that keeps his nose clean.
It all had to do with this stupid hip hop song that was apparently huge this year called "Ballin'" or something like that (my roommate told me). I caught the music video the other day, and that's all they do in the video, the jump shot motion. I don't get it.
In the not to distant past NFL teams such as the Pats would get some of their players together in organized teams and travel their respective areas to play local all-star teams for charity. My son still has a Pats pennant signed by the Pats players who played in this area of NH that year. This is not uncommon for Pro Football players.
I think players should be banned from walking during the off season. They should be forced to cover themselves in bubble wrap. Even reading should be banned because you could strain your eyes. You sound foolish, and it had nothing to do with basketball. I think it's part of white-internet-stereotypers to "intertwine" things with Black people, as if no one else watches the NBA. Woefully ignorant, but expected.
What! Heaven forbid that a pro athlete actually excel at another sport. The nerve of their teams expecting their players to stay in shape during the off season. Somebody please tell Brady to stop swinging the golf club for fear that he may hurt his lower back with that oh so beautiful swing of his. The luck of the draw for Bush I guess, it could have happened to Brady last week at Pebble Beach - thank goodness it didn't.
Bush said afterwards he didn't have his ankles taped. That was the real problem. And I agree with Caspir. Tunescribe....your comment is kind of ridiculous.
First Brees and now Bush get hurt in meaningless games. We don't need to wrap all players in bubblewrap, just the ones from the Saints
I think it is silly to say in a contract that you can't play other sports in your free time. BBall is a good workout and a lot of people enjoy it. Maybe NFL players should not be allowed to drive eaither, because they could get hurt in a car accident.
Skiing is a lot of fun too, and very exhilarating with the cold wind in your face. Jim Lonborg racked up his leg skiing at Lake Tahoe after pitching the Red Sox to a world series and one Bob Gibson less and they would have won (Yaz helped too ). Lonborg was never the same after the skiing accident and the Red Sox took eight more years to get back the the series. Not all his fault of course, but it was a big loss, his not being able to pitch anywhere near his 1967 level. It is a fine line what players should do in the off season and where do teams draw it? I mean, with a complete laissez-faire attitude by the teams, you could say Big Ben was just doing his thing on the motorcycle too. Aaron Boone lost his job with the Yankees due to a basketball injury. If I had the potential to earn a hundred million or something in a very short career, I think I'd lay off even basketball until the career was over. Too much to lose.

Four NMPs won't extend terms, five others undecided
They say there is need for fresh voices in House
Published on Mar 15, 2014 8:08 AM
FOR the past two years, they have vociferously championed topics ranging from the arts to the income gap, the plight of small and medium-sized businesses, and women in the workforce.
But a touch of wistfulness descended on four Nominated MPs when a marathon nine-day parliamentary sitting ended on Thursday.
It will be the last Budget and Committee of Supply debates for Mr Teo Siong Seng, Mr Laurence Lien, Ms Janice Koh and Ms Mary Liew, who will not seek an extension of their 21/2-year terms when they end in August.
All four pointed to a need for fresh voices in the House.

With the talk now about Tedy being out for a while.I got to wondering..Where is Mincey in all this? I know he was out due to injury early on in camp.Has his status changed at all?Reason being,At this point I think we would love to think that ILB won't be Vrabel and Beisel going into the season,I was hoping Mincey could get some reps at OLB so that maybe we can try Tully Banta-Cain Inside along with Beisel.I do think we all know that Mike did a great job inside last year but he excels outside.Though from what I know of the 3-4 the ILB tend to be the playcallers.Just speculation of different combinations here...Not saying I Think BB would do anything that drastic..
I've been asking about the guy as well. I haven't read one single article or report about his presence in training camp. I'm getting the feeling he will be going the way of Claridge, welcome to I.R. Mincey.
From BB's PV 8-6-06 Q: How does Jeremy Mincey look so far? Does he look like he's having a little success making the adjustment to linebacker? BB: Yeah. He's certainly come a ways from where he was in the spring and even at the start of camp. He definitely has a long way to go, but he's making progress and he is working hard. He is a tough kid. He is in good condition. He has been out there everyday, so he has gotten better everyday. But still the whole pass coverage thing for any player that is making that conversion from down to on their feet, it's usually a considerable process that they have to go through and really understanding formations and routes and run pass keys and things like that. But he is definitely getting better. He is a big, physical kid. We'll give him a chance in there and see what he can do in the kicking game and see how that relates to how his development is coming along on special teams. There are a lot of guys who are kind of in that same boat, especially at that position at linebacker and the secondary. A lot of guys kind of fall into that category.
I think a guy like Roach or Gardner is more likely to help our LB situation than a rookie low round draft choice changing positions. I hope we can at least keep him on the practice squad though.
I suspect that we'll be seeing a healthy dose of Mincy on friday night. These are the games that start to establish the pecking order as we get closer to the Bills. I hope this kid sticks.
Nice background story on Jeremy from Greenburg of the Hartford Courant-- http://www.courant.com/sports/footb...09,0,6721788.story?coll=hc-headlines-football
I suspect that we'll be seeing a healthy dose of Mincy on friday night. These are the games that start to establish the pecking order as we get closer to the Bills. I hope this kid sticks. ------- me too..thanks for the info folks...
My hope is that Mincey and Roach show enough to make the team and see little bursts of action throughout the season so that, by this time NEXT year we may have some legitimate YOUNG options at LB in the future. That is, IMO, the best-case scenario while remaining realistic.
If I were using a second-day pick on a DE-OLB project, I would have taken Freddie Roach's teammate, Mark Anderson, at Gostkowski's spot. He is a better athlete and was more productive for a better defense. He also had a terrific combine in drills that indicated he could make the DE to OLB switch. Staying in Mincey's spot, I would have gone with C Greg Eslinger. But if I had to pick a DE-OLB, I would have gone with local yokel Ryan LaCasse. Let's hope that Mr.Mincey proves me wrong, on both counts.
At Mincey's spot, in the 6th round? I can see that. Perhaps also Kai Parham of Al Groh's UVA. Unless AG told BB to stay away, maybe. I wonder what he told him about Ahmad Brooks... Good on the pats for signing Freddie as an UDFA; I just wish that they would be more aggressive at signing more quality UDFAs. And no, Matt Shelton and Erik Davis do not qualify as "quality".
Thanks, Pats1; I missed that one. They must be happy with the progress of Oliver Hoyte, another UDFA ILB. I wouldn't mind if the pats brought in Parham, not only for competition, but for just-in-case.

William Styron, of course, has already told the world much about his own inner darkness. In addition to his three highly acclaimed novels ("Lie Down in Darkness" in 1951; "The Confessions of Nat Turner" in 1967; and "Sophie's Choice" in 1979), Styron was also the author of "Darkness Visible," a 1990 nonfiction account detailing his horrific battle with depression.
But Alexandra, Styron's youngest child of four, has issues of her own to hash out.
Who was this man? "At times querulous and taciturn, cutting and remote, melancholy when he was sober and rageful when in his cups, he inspired fear and loathing in us a good deal more often than it feels comfortable to admit." That's how Styron remembers her father's domestic side. While his colleagues recall a friend and critic who was "patient, thoughtful, and enormously generous," she feels stuck with the memory of a man who entertained himself by telling his little daughter that he was going to sell her pony to a glue factory and by suggesting that the "imbeciles" in a nearby state institution might escape and "do vile things" to her.
Styron never really succeeds in solving the mystery that was her father. She traces him from his lonely Southern boyhood (his mother died young and his stepmother openly disdained him), on through his early career struggles (when it was his own adoring father who kept him afloat), to his years of great success (she was 12 when "Sophie's Choice" was published) and then, sadly – on to the breakdowns in 1985 and 2000 that finally incapacitated him.
She offers interesting insights into the affections and experiences that helped to shape him, including his great love for his father, his disaffection with the South and its attitudes, and his all-consuming need to prove himself as a novelist.
But she remains puzzled as to the cause of his worst anguish. "Did my father's depression steal his creative gift?" she wonders. "Or was it the other way around, an estrangement from his muse driving him down in increments till he hit rock bottom? There's no single answer, no simple trajectory."

Nine years later the FTAA idea returns to Miami for the final phase of negotiations as the hemisphere's trade ministers (again excluding Cuba) gather at downtown's Inter-Continental Hotel on November 20 and 21. If successful, the negotiations will wrap up next year in Brazil and put the FTAA into effect by the end of 2005. Local boosters hope that if the pact is created, Miami will become the home to the trade-area headquarters -- known as the permanent secretariat -- making the city indisputably the capital of the Americas. But before that can happen there are a lot of obstacles in the way of the FTAA. This week the trade ministers will face massive protests out on the streets and fierce disagreements among member nations inside the official meetings.
As hundreds of negotiators have hammered out the details in a draft agreement over the past decade, a large, vocal, and wildly diverse movement has organized in opposition to almost every provision. The largest opponent of the FTAA is the Hemispheric Social Alliance, an umbrella group of trade unions and social organizations formed during the 1997 ministerial meeting in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, that now claims to represent more than 45 million people. During the Third Summit of the Americas in Quebec City, Canada, in April 2001 -- as heads of state adopted the second draft agreement of the FTAA and tens of thousands of protesters raged outside -- the HSA hosted a parallel People's Summit at a nearby site, where 3000 delegates from across the hemisphere prepared their own agreement, Alternatives for the Americas. "This is a movement of people demanding their very humanity," the document declares. "They do so by stating that nutritious food, a comfortable place to live, a clean and healthy environment, health care, and education are human rights."
Why all the fuss? Because despite repeated assurances by ministers and heads of state that the FTAA will protect workers, promote general prosperity, and preserve the environment, there are no such safeguards written into either of the first two draft documents of the trade agreement. Instead, critics complain, the FTAA offers protection for the "rights" of investors and of transnational corporations to unimpeded access to all national markets.
Without those safeguards, the FTAA draft looks pretty familiar to detractors. The document codifies economic policies that for the past 25 years have been promoted across Latin America by the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. The message to struggling governments has been clear: If you want a loan, you'd better cut back on the size of your government, loosen controls over your currency, and open up your markets to outside investors -- even when that means painful sacrifices for the average person. Those economic policies have had drastic political implications, as angry citizens have taken to the streets to oust presidents promoting open trade in Ecuador, Argentina, and most recently Bolivia.
The FTAA draft also looks a lot like the agreements it was modeled after: the World Trade Organization (WTO) and North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). In fact critics call the FTAA "NAFTA on steroids" -- and point to what they consider to be the failings of both the WTO and NAFTA as a way of predicting the likely outcome of the FTAA for workers, the poor, and the environment (see "NAFTA: Saint or Sinner?" page 32). Meanwhile the most recent meeting to finalize various details of the WTO agreement in Cancun, Mexico, this past September collapsed amid a standoff between developed and developing countries over the issues of competition and agriculture, led in part by Brazil.
Although Rubens Barbosa, Brazil's ambassador to the United States, claims that his country's role in the WTO collapse has been exaggerated, and that Brazil is committed to making the FTAA work, the populist administration of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva presents a formidable challenge to putting the FTAA into practice. Many in Latin America believe the current draft favors the United States, which has helped Brazil entice new member countries to join Mercosur -- the regional trade area that also includes Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, and now Peru -- in an effort to form a powerful bloc to challenge the United States.
The same thorny issues of competition and agriculture that helped bring the WTO to a grinding halt in Cancun threaten to derail the FTAA. And those are just two of the nine issues on the FTAA negotiating table (see "Fair Trade Hot Buttons," page 30). No matter what happens on the streets, it's the controversy inside the negotiations that will determine the shape of the final FTAA document. In fact there may be no FTAA at all, dashing local dreams of a Miami secretariat. $

Penn Quakers (5-6)
@22 Kentucky Wildcats (12-2)
Monday, January 03
Rupp Arena
Attendance: 21,681
22 Kentucky
Lexington, KY (Sports Network) - Brandon Knight scored 22 points and Doron Lamb finished with 16, as 10th-ranked Kentucky used a big second half to rout Penn, 86-62, at Rupp Arena.
Knight made 4-of-7 from three-point range, while Josh Harrellson turned in a double-double with 12 points and 11 rebounds for Kentucky (12-2), which earned an impressive 78-63 victory at Louisville on Friday and has now won seven straight games. Darius Miller donated 11 points, seven boards and six assists in the win.
Tyler Bernardini netted 22 points and Miles Cartwright added 16 for Penn (5-6), which suffered a 66-57 loss at Marist on Wednesday and has dropped three of four.
"I have a tremendous amount of respect for college basketball and this school's history and tradition here," Penn head coach Jerome Allen said. "It looks like coach (John) Calipari has it going in the right direction and I have nothing but the utmost respect and I wish him the best of luck."
Ahead by only a 33-32 score at the intermission, Kentucky got a pair of free throws and a layup from Terrence Jones to start the second half and put the hosts ahead by five.
Knight's trey capped a 7-0 run that extended the Wildcats advantage to double digits, 49-39, five minutes in and the rout was on from there. Lamb bookended a string of 11 straight points with a pair of corner threes for a 66-45 game near the midway point.
The Quakers were unable to get within single digits the rest of the way as Kentucky cruised to the victory.
Penn used some hot three-point shooting to take control early in the opening half. Bernardini hit from beyond the arc and two triples from Cartwright capped a mini 9-4 run to give the Quakers a 17-10 lead eight minutes into the contest.
Mike Howlett's layup with 5:01 remaining put the visitors up by a 31-19 score before Kentucky closed the half with a 14-1 burst behind some swarming defense.
Harrellson got things started with a tip-in and Lamb's free throw in the closing seconds put the Wildcats ahead 33-32 heading into the locker room. Penn made 7-of-9 from three-point territory in the opening 20 minutes.
"You've got to give them credit for how they played in the first half," Kentucky head coach John Calipari said. "They controlled the whole half. We were lucky we were not down 10 at halftime."

By Robert Jackson: Mayweather-Ortiz 24/7 episode 1, ah yes, this edition chronicles the exploits of underachiever turned overachiever Victor Ortiz and 24/7 originator Pretty Boy Floyd Mayweather, and like they say in show business any publicity is good publicity. Water cooler conversation starting the week centers around the confrontation between Jr and Sr which was shown as part 1 ended. Anyone whos seen Discovery Channels American Chopper knows that confrontation between the father and son is good for ratings, the same holds true for the Mayweathers. The animosity is REAL, and perfectly timed to shock and awe a public that is ripe for sensationalism and dramatic content. The climax of the 1st episode progressed from back and forth banter between father and son escalating too much stronger words and anticipated fisticuffs. HBO had to love it! What isnt real is that this was staged or a ploy, though on its own this confrontation should intrigue the pedestrian fight fan enough to invest $60 to see the fight. What is real is that the 24/7 series and this one in particular, puts asses in the seats. There is general animosity between Sr and Jr thats an added dimension to the 24/7 series. Cant miss TV, the TV execs would say. Dont be surprised if Oscar De La Hoya announces a return to the ring to rematch Money Mayweather with Floyd Sr in his corner because after all if Oscar hadnt stopped jabbing in the middle rounds of their fight he mightve gotten the victory.

♌ Not two blocks out and he already missed his mangy fur ball of a mutt. He really did love Mav, but his home spaced just wasn't what a dog that size needed. Mav needed a lot of running space and attention. Cade couldn't give him that so he relied on his poor workers to do it. Which really, they could say no. It wasn't like he could fire them for refusing. He could make their lives much harder if he really wanted to but that would mean more work and more effort. H was content to make them run small errands and walk his dog for him. Oh, and the verbal harassment. That was always and added bonus. At least Mikey had stopped correcting him and had accepted that in Cadence's eyes he would always be a Mikey. No reason, he just liked seeing the kid all flustered. He snorted unceremoniously. Mikey wasn't a kid He was, after all, just over two months younger than himself. The walk home wasn't short, but neither was it enjoyable. He hated walking in any fashion if it meant sweating. And a suit jacket over a thick silver button up with white cotton undershirt would make most people sweat. He scowled to himself, unfortunately scaring away a cheerful gaggle of school girls. "Unfortunate." He did however, eventually make his way to his residence called home and into the room he claimed as his lair. It was clean, except for the paint and glaze and clay littering nearly ever tarnished surface.
♌ As soon as he walked in though, he was reminded of just why he was putting up with where he was for now. Several still life's and portraits littered his walls. Paintings of every day people in their every day life. Abstract clay forms dancing away another night of empty tummies and full crying eyes. He sighed as he stripped down, tossing his silver shirt into a box of other ruined dress shirts. He would use it to paint or something. A quick changed and another serving of shrimp ramen and he was ready to go back to work. At least until it got dark and the Johns and Janes were out. He was tempted to skip out on his nightly routine, but yesterday night had been very slow and unrewarding and he needed so much a month to put into his savings. He wanted to pay for his gallery in full, not be burden by debt. And besides, he was considering getting some cheap frozen dinners for a chance if he made enough to night to earn some pocket change. Sure, he was a manager at a cafe. But all that money went to bills and taking care of his wonderful companions. He glanced down at his pale blue tee and his khaki shorts. No one ever saw him in his office anyways. Before he left though, he grabbed a large canvas and wrapped it up carefully to take back with him. All of the art in the cafe was his- something he had done slyly and slowly over the last five or so years.
♌ He mostly just said someone donated it and handed it off to be placed in the store. But this one was different. It was a grey scale piece, of Mikey working at the bar. Several of the other bees were buzzing around, but Mikey was the only one with a clear distinction. Cadence had thought his smiled looked just right and so he had painted it. Much of the back ground was barely blurred, putting the sole focus on the profiling of the kid making coffee with tired eyes but a pleased grin. What he had been grinning about, Cadence would never know. Didn't really care either. He just hoped the kid would take this piece the wrong way. The walk back was significantly longer, but the weather and his outfit made it more relaxing than the walk home had been. He was trapped in thoughts and designed, and he was sort of startled when he reached the shop. He put on a bored face as he walked in, glancing around for Mikey.

♌ It was sleazy and underhanded, but if it put his work out there, well, he wasn't walking the high road anyways.

He bent down on his knees, ruffling the pup's fur, and letting his lips turn up just a fraction as Dutch scampered out of his pants pocket to play with mavericks leash. It was such a pretty day he decided to let them both roam the city a while on their own. It wasn't the first time he had done it but they always found their way back here- or when he was out at night, they went home where the landlord let them into his rooms and left a one hundred dollar bill for him to pay later. He glanced up and sighed. He glanced at his workers with an irritated sigh.

No, This Is Not the Last Hurrah for the Housing Recovery
Jonathan Smoke / Hanley Wood / September 20, 2013
Earlier this week the National Association of Realtors reported that existing home sales were up in August over July when most economists were expecting a decline. Instead, the pace of sales in August was at the highest level since February 2007. Let me make one more important historical comparison. If we exclude 2002-2006 from our data set because of the abnormal level of activity in the heart of the housing boom, there have only been 5 other months in history (going back to 1968) that existing single-family home sales have been higher: January and February 2007, August and December 2001,
Read MoreExisting Sales Advance, Prices Pause
Stephen Melman / NAHB / September 19, 2013
Existing home sales increased 1.7% in August, and were up 13.2% from the same period a year ago to the highest level since February 2007. The National Association of Realtors (NAR) reported that August 2013 total existing home sales were at a seasonally adjusted rate of 5.48 million units combined for single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops. That compares to 5.39 million units in July, and 4.84 million units during the same period a year ago. The South and Midwest increased 3.8% and 3.1% respectively, while the Northeast remained flat and the West decreased 2.3% from last month.
Read MorePermit Data Show Homebuilding Recovery Continuing
Jonathan Smoke / Hanley Wood / September 18, 2013
The initial read on August permits and starts showed no evidence of single family construction being derailed by the increase in mortgage rates since May. Permits, which lead starts, were at a total level in line with most economists' expectations. Single family permits were at the highest seasonally adjusted rate since May 2008. While the total starts number was down, the decline was caused by declines in the more volatile multi-family sector, and in fact single family starts were up 7% in August over July.
We work with more detailed market level permit data from the Census and from

John McManus / BIG BUILDER / September 18, 2013
Census Bureau data on housing starts and new residential building permits hit the wires this morning, and you don't get too far into any expert's explanation of the fresh crop of data before the term "mixed signals" surfaces. Offsetting positives vs. negatives; stressors vs. catalysts; headwinds vs. tailwinds; fundamentals vs. technicals; buzz vs. the trenches are a fact of home building and development's life.

Single-Family Starts Save the Day
David Crowe / NAHB / September 19, 2013
Housing starts rose 0.9% in August pushed by a solid 7% increase in single-family starts and tempered by an 11% fall in multifamily starts. The single-family increase was broad; all four census regions showed increases ranging from 17.5% in the West to 2.3% in the South. Monthly multifamily starts have saw-toothed up and down for several months with four up months and four down months in 2013.
Housing permits demonstrated the same signal with single-family permits up 3% nationally and up or unchanged in every region. August single-family permits at 627,000 are the highest since May 2008. Similar

Hillary or McCain - It's Your Choice
We, Democrats and Hillary Clinton supporters, refuse to accept the forthcoming nomination of Barack Obama. We see an immense injustice being done in the way Barack Obama has been pre-selected as the nominee. The DNC has done everything in its power, including deliberately inventing rules to disenfranchise two of the biggest swing states in America, to make this happen. It is a reprehensible misuse of power by the Party elites. We the people understand that Barack Obama has a narrow base of support that will not allow him to win the Presidency in November. He gained that support in an unforgivable manner, by smearing Bill and Hillary Clinton as racists while you stood by and did nothing. You have also allowed the media and Obama\'s campaign to promote rampant and disgraceful misogyny in his pursuit of the nomination. These racial and sexual games will haunt the country for years to come, and do not represent the Democratic Party I thought I knew and loved. We also feel that Hillary\'s broader base of female, Democratic and Independent voters are being taken for granted, since there is a determined and concerted push to tell us we should shut up and vote Obama in November. You and the SuperDelegates must nominate Hillary Clinton after she wins the popular vote, since Barack Obama\'s delegate count lead was obtained in a fraudulent and despicable manner. Otherwise, a large portion of Hillary\'s voters will desert the Democratic Party, and John McCain will become the President in November. Hillary or McCain - it\'s your choice.

Astronomers found another blue planet which rains glass
Published on Jul 11, 2013 9:57 PM
PARIS (AFP) - Astronomers said on Thursday that they had found another blue planet a long, long way from Earth - no water world, but a scorching, hostile place where it rains glass, sideways.
Using the Hubble Space Telescope, scientists from NASA and its European counterpart, ESA, have for the first time determined the true colour of an exoplanet, celestial bodies which orbit stars other than our own Sun.
They concluded that HD 189733b, a gas giant 63 light-years from our own planet, was a deep cobalt blue, "reminiscent of Earth's colour as seen from space".
"But that's where the similarities end," said a statement.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Vermin (colloquially varmint[1] or varmit) are pests or nuisance animals, especially those that threaten human society by spreading diseases or destroying crops and livestock. Use of the term implies the need for extermination programs. Since the term is defined in relation to human activities, which species are included vary from area to area and person to person.
The term derives from the Latin vermis (worm), and was originally used for the worm-like larvae of certain insects, many of which infest foodstuffs.[2] The term 'varmint' (and 'vermint') has been found in sources from ca. 1530-1540s.[1][3]
Varmint or varmit is an American-English colloquialism, particularly common to the American east and South-east within the nearby bordering states of the vast Appalachia region. The term describes farm pests which raid farms as opposed to infest farms—mainly predators such as foxes, weasels, and coyotes, sometimes even wolves or rarely, bears, but also, to a lesser degree, herbivores and burrowing animals that directly damage crops and land.
Although this version of the word "vermin" is not a prevalent term in Standard Written English, it is a common descriptor for certain kinds of weapons and pest control situations in the Appalachian and nearby states and the American west and south-west which have adopted terms such as varmint rifle and varmint hunting.
This section does not cite any references or sources. (January 2012) |
Disease-carrying rodents and insects are the usual case, but the term is also applied to larger animals—especially small predators—typically because they consume resources which humans consider theirs, such as livestock and crops. Birds which eat cereal crops and fruit are an example. The American Crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos), is widely hated by farmers because of crop depredation. Pigeons, which have been widely introduced in urban environments, are also sometimes considered vermin. Some varieties of snakes and arachnids may also be referred to as vermin. Vermin is also used as a term for vile people, an enemy of a state or nation, or certain ethnic groups that are considered as subhuman.[1]
Species can develop into vermin if introduced into regions where they find favourable living conditions, and if they face few or no natural enemies there. In such cases, humans often choose to fill the role of the predator to limit the danger to the environment. Examples of vermin include goats on the Galápagos Islands, Rabbits in Australia or cats on Prince Edward Islands. Rats, mice, and cockroaches are common urban and suburban vermin.
Hunting laws and definitions vary by province in Canada. In the province of New Brunswick, groundhogs, coyotes, crows, and cormorants are classified as "varmints", and may be hunted between March 1 to September 20 with the payment of a small fee for a licence.
Under Tudor "vermin laws" many creatures were seen as competitors for the produce of the countryside and bounties were paid by the parish for their carcasses. The declaration of the Red Kite as vermin led to its decline to the point of extinction in the UK by the 20th century. However, the Red Kite is being reintroduced by the trans-location of breeding pairs from Europe.[4]
Origin: 1530–40; var. of vermin

Dear Invaded, I am currently answering this question while wearing a shirt that says, "Let's hug it out." Yes, irony is my bitch. I am sure there is a T-shirt with "bitch" attached to the end of that phrase, but it wasn't available in the dollar barrel at Top Drawer. Thus, I am rocking this cornflower blue beauty, not because I am particularly huggy, but because, in my friends' estimation, I am particularly not. This is not to say that I have an aversion to get physically up into someone's business, it is just that I wasn't raised in a huggy family so that kind of greeting doesn't come naturally to me. In my family, hugs were performed mainly as the precursor to a suplex body slam that usually evolved into an all-out fist fight (not in the face).
Over the years, I have come to understand that the rest of the world doesn't necessarily ascribe to that notion of physical affection, and so I've taken steps (baby) to drag myself back toward the middle of the road – like this cornflower blue "Let's Hug It Out" T-shirt. I have a great set of friends, and I don't want them to think of me as a non-hugging asshole because, deep down in my crunchy, crust-covered heart, I don't think that's true. I am just programmed on a Pavlovian level to keep my distance.
You see where I am headed here? (Well, other than in for an awkwardly long hug?) This new guy probably has no idea that he's consistently violating the personal space zone – which actually varies by culture and region. Texas is a big state with a lot of room to move around, but outsiders don't necessarily understand that it translates to our personal interactions as well. You might be most successful addressing this problem as a cultural issue – by letting this fellow know that in Texas we like wide open spaces. We talk louder and slower not because we're stupid, but so we can be heard from a comfortable distance. Be gentle but persistent. He may eventually back off. If he doesn't, you may need to get a restraining order.

I beg to differ over penetration is a valid concern as are complete misses by people carrying firearms for protection,that miss or over penetrate into an innocent bystander and you will not only be looking at criminal charges,but very likely civil charges alsoThe reason for hollow points is that they are more effective than round nose bullets.
Over penetration is a silly concern. People worry about a good shot overpenetrating and don't worry about all the misses that by wizzing by at full velocity.

vs Chicago Bulls Friday Dec 7 2012 - 7:30 PM EST Palace of Auburn Hills, Detroit, MI TV: FS Detroit RADIO: 97.1FM GO PISTONS!
Hope Coach Frank stops screwing around tonight and gets serious about getting Maxey some time on the court.
Hi everybody. This is my first message here. I am from Barcelona and I have followed the team since the Bad Boys times. Things don't look good for us lately, but I want to shout with you GO PISTONS GO.
Welcome to the forum. I believe you are the only forum member named Sramud. How did you become a Pistons fan?
Hi Sramud. 5 years ago. So much promise. Chicago Bulls Dec. 23rd, 8:00 PM | Detroit Pistons Forum Pistons get unlikely 40 points from Rodney Stuckey, beat Bulls - Chicago Tribune
About Sramud Samoht... I knew you would like my nickname. Just read it backwards. I started following the Pistons in the late 80s, when I was a kid. I used to play basketball and, when I discovered the NBA it was through magazines ( no Internet or games on TV back then... or just a few very very late at night because of the time diference ). The easy thing would have been to choose the Lakers or Celtics as a favourite team, but I am always been into teams more than into individual stars. And I had a certain aversion towards the teams that are always favoured by the media and the organisations. Plus little Isiah got me. Since then I have followed the Pistons, through ups and downs. And now they seem to be down again. The right time to share that before we start winning ( hopefully not too late) again. Good luck tonight.
Welcome to the forum! Good Nickname! About tonight's game... Pistons by 6... but for this, we need a good game with no to little turnovers from Monroe and Knight and play some good inside defense. Let's GO PISTOOOOOOOOOONS!!!!
Welcome to the forum Sramud. That's a cool nickname. I may follow your example and change my name to Esoom Dnommurd.
Actually, funny story, that's actually my real name! My parents were big fans of backwards basketball.
Monroe's end of game drive and short layup then rebounded by Noah typified the entire game played by our bigs. I haven't looked at the stat line, but I think Noah may have outplayed Dre, Max and Greg combined.

Vet Could Be One of Thousands Affected by Insulin Pens
POSTED: Thursday, February 5, 2009 - 6:49pm
UPDATED: Wednesday, February 17, 2010 - 2:23pm
EL PASO--- Every day John Ceballos keeps one bag close by. It's a bag full of needles and insulin.
"I had a liver transplant back about five years ago, and apparently my liver donor possibly had diabetes, and I may have contracted it from the liver that i picked up," said Ceballos, who's learned to make the shots part of his everyday life.
Yet one day last summer, his blood sugar went out of control.
So he immediately made his way to William Beaumont Army Medical Center.
"So I went in to the emergency room, and they explained the problem to me and they went ahead and put me in one of the bays and they did administer the insulin on that one occasion," he said.
But now that visit may have led to an even greater problem.
"It's bad enough having to take the insulin just to survive, you know? and then to have to cope with one of these diseases, that would make it a lot worse," he said.
Ceballos found out Thursday he could be one of 2,114 patients at risk of a blood-borne disease, because of an insulin injection pen similar to the one he sometimes uses at home.
Hospital staff admitted to the public they had been misusing the insulin injection pens since their adoption in August 2007. While the staff had been using new needles per patient, they didn't know until last week they weren't supposed to use the same pen on multiple patients.
While the hospital staff has known about the problem for six days, NewsChannel 9 broke the news to Ceballos.
"I think that they should have contacted any and all individuals, you know, as soon as possible," said Ceballos.
Beaumont leaders say they've just now started to notify patients who need to be tested.
At a news conference, leaders told reporter it took some time to identify those who got insulin shots specifically with those pens.
The patients affected should be receiving notifications in the mail.
So Ceballos called the hospital's call center hotline to find out what he needed to do next.
"Do you have a history of hepatitis C? 'No sir.'" answered Ceballos to the operator.
After answering several more questions, Ceballos was able to make an appointment to get tested for HIV and Hepatitis A, B, and C before the end of the day.
According to Ceballos, doctors told him he should find out the results of his tests in three weeks.
The Associated Press reported that none of the 2,100 patients had been tested by late Thursday.
We will keep you updated on Ceballos' condition.
More than 2000 people may have been affected.
If you have any questions or concerns call Beaumont Hospital at 1-866-770-0194.

Black smoke is seen rising from the top of the Ameriprise building Tuesday afternoon, Apr. 22, 2014.
Photo: Mikael Vejdemo-Johansson, Special to the Star Tribune
A thick plume of smoke seen rising from a downtown Minneapolis high-rise Tuesday afternoon resulted from a maintenance crew changing fuel on the rooftop and not from a fire, a Minneapolis Fire Department spokesman said.
Crew were called to the 30-story Ameriprise Building at 707 2nd Av. S. a little before 1 p.m. and found smoke coming from a rooftop mechanical appliance, said Assistant Fire Chief Charles Brynteson.
There were no injuries, and workers in the building were not evacuated, he said.
"It was never a threat," an Ameriprise spokeswoman said. "[All of our employees] are safe and it's business as usual."
