Antron Brown
Three seasons removed from his first and only NHRA Top Fuel world championship in 2012, Antron Brown and the Matco Tools/U.S. Army dragster team for Don Schumacher Racing (DSR) are on a mission.
Quite simply, they are firmly focused on returning the champion's No. 1 to the rear wing of their 10,000-horsepower racing machine once again.
Brown's team, led by crew chiefs Brian Corradi and Mark Oswald, certainly showed championship form in 2014, when they matched their DSR teammate and fellow U.S. Army driver Tony "The Sarge" Schumacher's series-high total of six event titles. Schumacher went on to clinch his eighth career Top Fuel title while Brown, plagued by occasional bouts of inconsistency, ended up seventh in the final point standings after following up his 2012 championship season with a runner-up finish in 2013.
Even though he is among the winningest Top Fuel drivers in recent years, there was a time Brown never truly believed that one day he would, let alone win a world championship.
His vibrant personality, perseverance, intelligence, athleticism and deeply held religious convictions helped plot the course toward earning a position driving in NHRA drag racing's ultimate category of Top Fuel in 2008. And it took just four years for the New Jersey native to be crowned the 2012 NHRA Top Fuel world champion, making him the first African-American to win a major U.S. auto racing season championship.
That accomplishment, coupled with his commitment to helping young Americans, earned him two prestigious honors in 2013. In January, he was selected to NBC's 2013 edition of "The Grio's 100" list that features African-American industry, sports and community leaders, and he was featured on a segment of NBC's Today show to help celebrate Black History Month. Eight months later, he was at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York City along with Terry Bradshaw, James Worthy, Dave Winfield, Nick Faldo, Shawn Johnson and other renowned athletes at the 28th annual Great Sports Legends Dinner to benefit The Buoniconti Fund to Cure Paralysis.
"I never sat back and thought about it, but if I can be an inspiration for kids out there – not just African-Americans, but Americans, period – and give them somebody they can look up to, that's a huge positive. I'm a living example of someone who never settled in life for things that people told me I may not ever achieve. Some of my own family members told me that I could never be a professional racer. I even doubted myself that I would someday be a Top Fuel or Funny Car racer because it just seemed to be so far out of reach. That's what makes all of our accomplishments even more special."
Brown lives in Pittsboro, Indiana with his wife Billie Jo and their three children. He is active in various community activities, including church, NHRA Junior Drag Racing, Boy Scouts and other youth-related programs. Perhaps more impressive than Brown's first world championship and 47 NHRA event titles and 84 No. 1 qualifying positions entering the season is his commitment to faith, family and helping to motivate high school and college students by way of his approximately 30 speaking engagements around the country each year for sponsors Matco Tools and the U.S. Army.

Ok we're here with U.S. Army Top Fuel Driver Tony Schumacher at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, California for the FRAM Autolite Nationals. And Tony this the third race of the three race western swing, tell us a little bit about the first two races and how it went for you.
Tony: All right we got beat at the first race in the second round by seven thousandth of a second and the race in Seattle last weekend was fantastic. We qualified eighth, we were the first pair out and we outrun the Bud car beat him and we had to run Dixon who was my old team we beat them which was a huge round third round we went out even though we spun the tires we capitalized on it and we got those 20 points in the final round lost by eight thousandth of a second but I think that's the fans that are watching that ought to tell you how awesome this season is this year. To be able to have two races back to back and whether you win or lose to have then eight thousandth of a second apart or less we're talking less than an inch or two, two cars making eight thousand horsepower you can win or lose by inches its simply amazing. We're a brand new team we have everybody on that team is brand new never worked on my car with me so to have a team come forward like that to win three races to be on four finals to be second on the points and the mist of just an incredible battle for championship its awesome.
Announcer: Now you had a brief stop in Los Angeles between the Denver and Seattle race when you went to the Espy awards, tell us how that experience was?
Tony: A lot of fun you know, just to be nominated for an Espy to have your name listed amongst some of the best athletes in all different sports. You know, I feel blessed that I'm a part of that. Its just, the third year straight that we've been nominated and it's tough one to win because it's a fan based and NASCAR is such a big sport but they won't share the number but I'm guessing we're one or two votes off of winning, I just kidding. But it was a good time. Jimmy Johnson won it and to be named with these guys that have won championships and all the different classes is awesome.
Announcer: Now you, I'm sure you're gonna, you want to win ever race but this weekend and you have a special guest General Bromberg will be out here and you typically have a lot of Army guests out here every race tell us how inspirational, motivational that could be for you.
Tony: It's the whole backbone of our team you know, you're as good as the people you surround yourself with and we've won in some amazing ways but really it comes down to just great people we're inspired by these Soldiers and it's great to win for them. We're not racing for a beer company, we're not racing for a tool company, we're racing for freedom a way of life with great Soldiers out there and their families, we always got to remember when I talk about Soldiers their families are at home worried about them day in and day out and it's great to bring them a little comfort to be able to drive the Army car and give them a winning team, just remind them of what we're all about; winning.
Announcer: How about a message for our brave men and women out there in closing this video blog for GoArmy.com.
Tony: You guys rule man, you're the reason that we're out here doing it and you're the reason we're allowed to race you know the free country because you guys are giving everything and I think the American public the civilians have a hard time grasping how much you guys give but thank you and we look forward to meeting each one of you at some point in our career.
Announcer: Well that will do it from the Infineon Raceway; we'll see you back in again very soon.

Based on characters by Joss Whedon
Spike is a comic book series published by IDW Publishing. Written by Brian Lynch, it focuses on the character of Spike, a main character in television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer and its spin-off, Angel. Uniquely, although this is a spin-off from IDW's larger Angel: After the Fall franchise, it also serves as a prequel to Dark Horse Comics' own Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight comic book series. As such, it is "canon" to the overall "Buffyverse" in which stories take place. Although originally intended as an ongoing series, the Angel rights transfer from IDW to Dark Horse caused the series end after eight issues.[1]
Lynch had previously written for Spike in the comic books Spike: Asylum when Buffy and Angel creator Joss Whedon approached him to write the canonical continuation to Angel, After the Fall, in 2007. For Spike, Lynch is reunited with frequent collaborator, penciller Franco Urru. Because of the circumstances behind Dark Horse's use of the Angel character, Whedon offered Lynch use of a main character in the Buffy franchise, and Lynch adapted the storyline to bridge IDW's After the Fall with Dark Horse's Season Eight.
Brian Lynch revealed some of the plot at San Diego Comic-Con International in 2010. The plot of the first arc features Spike travelling to Las Vegas for a mission refused by Angel. There, he acquires the crew and the ship introduced properly in the pages of Buffy Season Eight arc "Last Gleaming".[2]
Publication history[edit]
Originally intended as a truly ongoing series,[2] Lynch outlines his premise as "what would happen if Spike headlined his own TV show";[3] in this sense, the series aims to be a true Spike title and not merely an Angel spin-off. Lynch feels that the "kinda-sorta-very loose crossover" with Buffy Season Eight makes the comic book feel more like a "genuine Spike event" (rather than another of Spike's self-titled miniseries). Insofar as Lynch aims his series to be the Spike TV show that never was, Lynch cast its characters in the mould of Buffy and Angel ' respective casts: a team of diverse characters like the Scooby Gang and Angel Investigations. Spike assembles his own team; Lynch describes these as the people Spike feels will listen to his commands.[3]
For his supporting cast, Lynch had originally wanted to have Lorne as in his earlier Spike: Shadow Puppets. However, following the death of actor Andy Hallett, who portrayed Lorne in the Angel series, IDW policy placed Lorne off-limits following John Byrne's send-off comic for the character, Music of the Spheres. Instead, Lynch elected to use the character of Groosalugg. This allows him to use the dragon and pegasus characters introduced in After the Fall and placed in Groo's care in that storyline. Additionally, Lynch uses his own inventions, the telepathic fish Betta George (introduced into the Buffy canon in After the Fall) and Beck, a pyrokinetic girl, first introduced in Spike: Aslyum.[2] Lynch expressed excitement at bringing George back into the comics, as he had proved popular with fans of After the Fall.[3]
When it was leaked earlier that Buffy Season Eight would include Angel in an important role, this came as a shock to IDW editorial and its writers.[2] Then-current Angel writer Bill Willingham in particular expressed considerable displeasure about their use of his main character.[4] Dark Horse editors and Whedon extended the use of Buffy character Willow Rosenberg to Lynch after Lynch joked that it would make it okay. Although Whedon stipulated he would have to oversee the character's interactions in Spike, Lynch was excited because writing with notes from Whedon was how they produced After the Fall together.[2] Lynch writes of being a huge fan of Willow and enjoying her interactions with Spike in episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.[3]
For Lynch, having Spike as a headlining character makes for a very different writing experience to writing Spike as a supporting character in Angel. Lynch reflects that unlike stories where Buffy Summers or Angel take the leading role, Spike is no longer there to stand at the sidelines and remark sardonically on the action. As leading man, the supporting characters of the series all work towards servicing him and his storyline. Spike's approach is also markedly different from Buffy's or Angel's; true to his character, he is more passionate and less tactical, making for tonally quite different stories to episodes of the aforementioned characters' shows. For Spike's personal development, Lynch expresses that as leader of the group, Spike has more responsibilities than ever before. For instance, he has to look out for the wellbeing of the team he has assembled. His new leadership role involves people management in addition to saving the world.[3]
Like Los Angeles in Angel and Sunnydale in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Spike has its own setting. Lynch chose Las Vegas as the locale for the Spike 's book. In common with the aforementioned locations, Lynch writes of Las Vegas that it "has become more evil than usual, and supernatural occurrences are happening all over town."[3]

Lynch and Dark Horse editor Scott Allie have both said that the Spike series will introduce the origins of Spike's ship and its crew. In a Q&A on the SlayAlive fan forums, Lynch said himself that the story was set a few months after Willingham's "Immortality for Dummies" arc in Angel, and at Comic-Con he said that although he wanted the comic to be timeless, it was also set "a few months" after the Fall of Los Angeles in After the Fall.[2]

alabama azalea
Hi..i'm new to azaleas, can anyone tell me what the requirements are for Rhododenron alabamense. Can I get by with just 3-4 hours of dappled sun? How big do they get etc...thanks
Hi, I got mine from Lazy K Last fall and it has done well under similar conditions. I make sure mine is mulched and it had to be watered quite a bit this summer when it was very hot and dry.
Good luck! You will love it!
Here is a link that might be useful: Alabamense
3-4 hours may not be enough to set many flower buds for the next year. However, you can try it and if you get little to no flower buds this time next year, move it.
That is the only issue with getting enough sun - whether you have enough to produce flowers.
Thanks..I got them from the Chatt. nature center esh. They already have buds. I do have a spot I can move them to that gets more sun but its kind of out of the way and I wont see them as easily as where they are now. Because they have already set buds, will I still have to wait to be able to tell till this time next year ?
Cool, I love CNC and just got some stuff there at last week's sale. I have a plumleaf azalea that I got there about 4 years ago and it's doing great (had tons of flowers this year).
Yes, you would still have to wait until next year to know because that is when they will set buds based on how much sun they get in their NEW place.
I say plant them where you want them and just see how they do.
I got an alabama azalea from CNC a few years ago and it's doing fine in half-day sun. (BTW, CNC extended the dates of this year's sale because of the rain last week- today and next friday-saturday from 9 to 5.) However, the plumleaf az I bought at Callaway Gardens several years ago has never blossomed! Everything I read about it says shade, but I guess I'm giving it too much shade. esh, how much sun does yours get?
Mine gets about 5 hours of morning sun after earlier being in a shadier location. Once it got more sun, the bloom production increased.
That's one thing I've learned about native azaleas - you've got to give them a bit more sun than you think. And if you can give them morning sun, you can give them as much as 6 hours.

Mass of tiny red eggs
I was just in my garden and noticed something on the rocks near my hens and chicks. There is a mass of tiny red spheres . The area covered is less than a square foot and the spheres are so tiny I'm not sure how to even measure them, but I had to get really down close to see what they are. There are hundreds of these things all massed together, spread over the rocks. I'm assuming they're eggs, but I'm wondering what laid them. If they're something destructive I would like to destroy them before they hatch, though I don't know much about eggs so it could be a toads eggs for all I know. Can anyone help? I will try to get a picture posted, but I'm not that high tech so it won't be until later this week.
Toad eggs are soft, not warm enough outside yet for the toads to be moving around in our location. Their eggs are laid in the water, since frogs and toads come from tadpoles who only swim. Grow legs as they mature.
The only other thing I can think of might be snail eggs. My friend bought some very large snails, 2"-3" shells, for her pond, not a native species. Those snails laid eggs in clusters on the side of the rocks and pond lining. The clusters on hers were a very bright pink at first, then faded. With such large snails the eggs were huge, very noticable. She broke clusters off to prevent huge hatchings of snail in her pond. They laid the eggs all the time, until winter freeze killed the snails. Smaller native snail would have smaller egg clusters.
I don't know if snails egg would overwinter for spring hatching. Perhaps a search on snail eggs would turn up a photo to compare the two.
it could be those BEETLES that Look like Lady Bugs.. they don't mind the COLD or SNOW at all.. I've seen them in my house already (in Feb and March)...and they would lay hundred or thousands of eggs
I had the same thing in my yard last year near my ponds Waterfall ROCKS... they like the heat on the Rocks, and sure enough, once they got SLIGHTLY LARGER that's what they were.
And I wasn't about to get Bite by THAT MANY BEETLES... So I got 3 Praying Mantis Cocoons and once they hatched out (Hundreds of them) I had no more Beetle, SPIDERS, Aphids or Mite Problems at ALL THAT SUMMER and Its all natural..that way I didn't have to worry about my Grand daughters and Pesticides
Could be box elder beetle eggs but it's way too early for that, I think.
In any case, hundreds of these in such a small area and this early in the year can't be good. I'd err on the side of caution and remove them, or at least most of them.
Any luck with getting a photo of them?
Sorry I never got those pictures, anyway I tried removing them but they are actually down in the soil and everywhere so I'd have had to remove the whole rock garden to get rid of all of them. Instead I chose to just put down some diatemaceous earth over the area. They still dont' seem to have hatched so I still have no idea what they were.

If you have been following any major trends you'll know that Elon Musk is in route to rule the world. Well, that may be an exaggeration, perhaps at least Mars, but on a Earth like note, last year he proposed an idea of a transportation method so futuristic that only someone crazy or super motivated would contemplate it. It turns out someone may be both and that organization goes by the name Formation 8. So what is this futuristic idea and who is Formation 8? Read on! Formation 8 is an investment firm founded by Joe Lonsdale, Brian Koo and Jim Kim, back in 2011. So far they've done a superior job of picking some major money generating enterprises with its first fund. They just so happen to include RelateIQ, which Salesforce bought for $390 million, and Oculus, which Facebook bought for $2 billion last year. When they started they had eight employees at launch, and now close to 30 people wander about the office give or take. Let's not forget the investments made in companies Wish, Radius, LearnSprout, Leeo, and Yello Mobile. Formation 8 is looking for "industry-transforming companies" no matter what their situation is. So in order to…
In 2011, a New York based startup that goes by the name Skillshare launched a massive, open online course approach, through interactive, video-based lessons. The concept is to give people a real-world education online and offline. You can find them thinking big and working hard out of their Soho, Manhattan headquarters. Their small team has bold vision and a laser-like focus. They have already grown to over 100K in paid enrollments in over 500 classes, even the teachers can make quite a bit of money themselves depending on popularity. The company has seen a recent injection of funds bringing Skillshare's total capital to $10 million. Skillshare would like to hyper-expand in 2014 by going mobile and adding more courses (particularly in business, design and tech). Current openings at Skillshare. So what makes skillshare different from video-based education platforms like Lynda.com, CreativeLive, Khan Academy and Curious, is lessons that are both live and interactive, as well as courses that are project-based and allow students to learn at their own pace.

How Major League Baseball Became a Media Industry Giant With their innovative approach to media, MLB's tech division is now considered more of a media company than a baseball organization.

NYC's Bark & Co, the dog-lover's ecommerce tech company, has just netted a cool $15 million in Series B led by Resolute.vc. Ecommerce analysts whose minds are turning to New York's doggie treat subscription service BarkBox are, so to speak, barking up the right tree: Bark & Co came into being as a result of the astonishing success of "the box". It seems as though canine lovers are a populous breed: so great has been the success of BarkBox that Bark & Co recently launched a new vet care-on-demand service, BarkCare, as well as a new content portal aptly named "The Bark Post". Services for doggie lovers The latter attracted 1 million visits in December last year but by June that number had skyrocketed to 10.5 million. It doesn't take a genius ecommerce analyst to figure out that there's a big dog-loving market out there, and Bark & Co intend to corner it. In addition to BarkBox, BarkCare and the Bark Post, the company has also just introduced a new mobile app, BarkBuddy, which it describes as "Tinder for dogs." Users simply swipe left or right to indicate whether or not they love the doggie images posted there. Thereupon, they're…

I'm a dreamer trying to find my way in the real world. I believe in true love and happy ever after. I love my books because they help me dream, I love good food because I believe it nourishes the soul and I have good friends to make my life complete. Am into the sensual things in life, massages, the touch of silk on skin, smells especially grass after rain, lavender, freshly baked bread and the unmistakable smell of a loved one. Beaches and the ocean move my soul, as does the sky, whether cloudless blue or filled with stars. I wish I had wings and could fly, float on a cloud or drift off on a wave. I like to shop, to drink, music to dance to and to fall in love to. I want to jump out of a plane, bungee jump off a cliff, see a shark up close, ride a really fast bike with my hair blowing in the wind.

Join Old And Young Lesbians
Mature and experienced pussies are not the exclusive domain of horny young men, you know. Sometimes coed gals could do with a bit of seniority as well. On Old And Young Lesbians, pristine and prim beauties are matched up with venerable veterans of the game.
Whether they do it in twos, threes or even fours, amateur women of varying ages climb on top of each other in a variety of positions set to a variety of backdrops. The bedroom, the living room floor, the local park... it doesn't matter where. When these dames of mixed generations decide it's time for a heated session, they'll do it right there and then on OldAndYoungLesbians.
The pussy-eating mania contained within the 405 movies are lavish affairs that celebrate intergenerational spit swapping. The newer scenes come with a high-def streaming and download option, while the oldest ones let you opt for a file that, while it may not be HD, still looks great. Also, lesbo lovers with mobile devices can keep the rug munching close at hand with the MP4 format. The Windows Media files are also available in clips and all the movies provide a streaming option in an embedded Flash player.
Speaking of high quality, the photos contained in the 405 picture sets that compliment the movies are high-res. With the kind of detail captured by these professionally shot photos, aficionados will have tons of material to help them pass any extra time they happen to find themselves with.
Along with all the high-caliber amateur content, this site also allows you access to 23 additional sites that make up the Mature Mega Pass network, including Old And Young Gang Bang, Mature Toilet Sluts and Bizarre Mature Sex. Warning to fans of fairly straight-up lesbo porn: some of the other sites can be a bit hardcore, so if you're shocked by raunchy porn, buyers beware.
Updating has been inconsistent in the past, but nowadays they appear to be adding something new 1-2 times a week. The content here is great, but the price is very steep and, as such, the site can't get a full recommendation no matter what.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

This is really a great site, but the price is exceptionally steep especially for Americans with an unfavorable exchange rate!

Sorry to steal the thread but i found a 1989 marlin 336 in .444 and the guy wants $400 and its got a $100 bushnell scope on it. Is that a fair price? He says its in great condition, just waiting for a day hes free so i can go look at it.
Thank you.
I would believe so
Feral cat waterboarder
Ive looked, a little over $1 a round. But i figure i can talk him down to $3-350 and see what happens. Its not like i need the rifle, but i want a lever action and ive been looking for a .357 but around me those are few and far between. Ive seen a couple at the last gun show but they were going for $700+ and i dont want one that bad. Thats why ive been looking for a used lever action and i found this one. Ive been buying the componets i need to start reloading so the cost of ammo will go down for me in a few months but wanted others opinions on the price of it. Thanks
I don't know too much about the 444 round. I hear that more deer are killed with a Marlin 30-30 than any other rifle
So its about the same as a 44 sp or mag
Here are the pictures the guy sent me. Hopfully gonna go look at it this week.
Looks good. Im just not a big fan of high scope mounts

World championship: Mike Smith gets shutout as Canada blanks Sweden

Share via Email
STOCKHOLM—Canada's Mike Smith earned his first win of the world hockey championship with a 33-save performance as Canada blanked host Sweden 3-0 Thursday.
Smith, who plays for the Phoenix Coyotes, was at his best in the third period with 17 saves.
Steven Stamkos, Luke Schenn and Jordan Staal scored for Canada. Matt Read contributed two assists in front of an announced sellout of 12,500 at Globe Arena.
Jhonas Enroth of the Buffalo Sabres made 22 saves on 25 shots for Sweden in the loss. Trailing 3-0 with just under 10 minutes remaining in the game, Sweden replaced him with Jacob Markstrom.
Canada (3-0-1) vaulted over Sweden into second spot in the Stockholm pool with the victory. Unbeaten Switzerland led with 11 points followed by Canada with 10 and the Swedes with nine. Norway was fourth with six.
Canada faces Belarus (1-2) on Friday for a second game in as many days. The Czech Republic (1-2-1) got by Denmark 2-1 in a shootout, but remained fifth in the Stockholm pool with five points.
France shocked Russia 2-1 in the Helsinki pool with Antoine Roussel of the Dallas Stars scored winning goal for the French in the second period.
The Russians remained tied with the United States for first at nine points each. Finland was second with eight points ahead of France and Slovakia tied with six apiece. Latvia downed the Slovaks 5-3 on Thursday.
The top four teams in each pool of eight qualify for the quarter-finals in each city. Canada lost the quarter-final game the last three years at the world championship despite finishing first in its group the last two.
Ranked No. 4 in the world, Sweden was No. 5 Canada's highest-ranked opponent yet.
The Swedes had been getting their feet back under them with three wins after an opening loss to the Swiss.
The host team is expecting the arrival of Vancouver Canucks forwards Daniel and Henrik Sedin and defenceman Alex Edler in the next few days. Those players were still in Vancouver on Thursday following the elimination of the Canucks from the NHL's first round of playoffs.

#71 DayZ, No ####!
As I watch Day Z make an absolute KILLING on an ALPHA all I can think is, DO YOU BELIEVE US NOW?!?!? DO YOU HEAR US NOW?!?!?! Probably not...MMO Inc is convincing itself we are still a small niche living in the past and longing for games that are way way too harsh for the modern mass market to desire. Well, 800k copies and over 12 Mill in a month for the alpha of one of the most unforgiving games in recent memory says otherwise!
I'm sure all the "guys that know" will come out and assure us that while we all "think" we want something like Day Z, we don't. I'm sure marketing and PR will keep on telling all of us what we really want is another mindless, inconsequential, shallow game based on a well known IP. They will spend countless interviews saying the MMO market is dead and evolved into the LOL market. DayZ is just a rare game that made it because of timing and the fact that zombies are "in" right now. We all know to admit a mistake and to accept responsibility is simply not acceptable in the corporate world so we will never hear the powers that be say "Ok, we should have listened, we should have given you challenging worlds to die in again".
I worry the powers that be live in such an isolated culture that the only thing this means to them is "We gotta have more Zombies in our DOTA clones!". I don't fault the big companies from making trendy games. They have to answer to investors and the majority of investors only care about one thing, stock going up, and the guys with the power usually haven't played a game since being good at pinball meant you got the girl and a free soda pop! At least thats what is seems like. You have 500k investors, do you do the risky game or the mainstream safer one?
Don't worry about them, just keep on showing them what you want with your hard earned money. Keep supporting games that are "too harsh for the mainstream market" and stay angry. Keep that fire burning and never let it be forgotten that when the industry told us we wanted hand holding theme parks we stood firm and begged for a consequential world to live or die in!
The saddest thing is that DayZ is more like an FPS than a full on MMO. I don't mean that as a knock to DayZ. What I mean is it's incredibly simple compared to the worlds that MMOs were once capable of. I mean, if people like DayZ one would think they would LOVE a full on MMO with all the bells, whistles, depth and possibilities amiright?
Maybe not. Maybe the DayZers like the simplicity of being a FPS. I'm sure it makes failing and starting over a lot easier. That reminds me, I hope sociologists are watching that game, much to be learned about human behavior in an environment like that. I saw The Road, it ain't pretty, but it's probably not as cutthroat as the corporate ladder! Now that is an idea for an MMO! I imagine it would be something like DayZ meets GTA plus more political backstabbing (shivers) just thinking about it gives me chills!
Sigh, 2 questions I can never answer but oft dream about. What if Rome never fell? FYI I assume by now we would have light sabers and hyper space travel! And what if the MMO genre kept trying to make worlds instead of parks? How incredible would MMORPGs be right now? People are shocked and impressed with DayZ lol. UO did that 17 years ago!

Russian Strategic Bombers Conduct More European Flights
Russian nuclear-capable bombers conducted a third day of military runs along Europe's coasts on Friday as part of heightened strategic activities by Moscow, the NATO alliance said.
"On Friday, Russian planes carried out more flights over Europe," said NATO spokesman Maj. Rob Phillips. "NATO tracked these flights over the Baltics, the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean."
Review: Thirteen Days in September by Lawrence Wright
Examining thirteen days at Camp David in early September 1978, in his latest book Lawrence Wright explains how peace triumphed over the threat of further war. In rich narrative detail—though unfortunately with all-too-conventional analysis—Wright profiles the three men who forged a lasting agreement between Israel and Egypt: Sadat, Begin, and Carter.
In Anwar Sadat, Wright presents a man of great internal contradictions. Forged by his hatred for British colonialism in Egypt and driven by a sense of destiny, Sadat was no simple peacemaker. From his early years spent in violent uprisings and conspiracy with Nazi spies, to his failed 1973 invasion of Israel, peace was a late endeavor for the Egyptian leader. Wright describes an eccentric and often capricious personality: Sadat's personal habits included lying daily on the floor of his bedroom "with a scarf over his eyes" and a passion for American westerns.

Defense Management:
New Management Reform Program Still Evolving
GAO-03-58: Published: Dec 12, 2002. Publicly Released: Dec 12, 2002.
Additional Materials:

- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-5581
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The Secretary of Defense announced a new business transformation program in 2001 with the intent of improving the effectiveness and efficiency of Department of Defense business operations. Concerned that the previous administration's Defense Reform Initiatives (DRI) could not be successful without many years of sustained effort, the Senate Committee on Armed Services issued a September 2001 report directing GAO to assess which DRI initiatives have been carried forward. In completing this assessment, GAO also examined the management structure and types of initiatives contained in the new business transformation program. Also at the request of the Committee, more detailed information on the status of the logistics reform and electronic business/electronic commerce initiatives is provided in the GAO report. GAO interviewed officials involved with the former DRI initiatives, as well as officials operating at all levels of the new business transformation program. In commenting on a draft of this report, DOD concurred with GAO's findings.
Most former DRI initiatives are continuing, although not always under the direct oversight of the new business transformation structure. According to DOD, 5 initiatives have been completed and 35 are still ongoing in some form. In general, the ongoing initiatives are being managed under the applicable functional area of responsibility, without specific oversight and tracking by a central management reform office. Nonetheless, the new management structure--led by the Senior Executive Council and the Business Initiative Council--does oversee some former DRI initiatives, such as financial management reform and public-private competitions under the Office of Management and Budget's Circular A-76. While similar in some respects, DOD officials have stressed that the new business transformation management structure is not considered to be a replacement for the previous DRI management structure. Important differences exist between the management approaches of the former and current reform programs. For example, the new management structure has higher senior-level management involvement and focus on decision making, but less emphasis on specific savings targets. To date, most new reform program initiatives have been intentionally small in scope in order to produce benefits in fiscal year 2003. The new program has begun to consider some larger efforts, such as alternatives to A-76. GAO believes the new business transformation program has the potential to be an effective mechanism for reform given the high-level management membership and emphasis on interservice participation. However, DOD's efforts are still evolving, and it is too soon to tell how effective the new reforms will be. Moreover, like the DRI, the new management program does not yet have an overarching plan tying key reform efforts together in an integrated fashion.

Caring for mentally retarded brother
I just found this forum and am hoping there may be someone out there with a similar experience. My parents died in 2008 within 5 months of each other. They had been caring for my mentally retarded brother all his life (he is 54 now) and he has now come to live with me. It has been a real eye-opening experience!
Unfortunately they had never gotten him signed up for any services that he would be eligible for. It took me a year and a half to finally get him declared eligible for sevices but now he is on a waiting list (which may take years to get any services. I have been pulling my hair out in frustration!!
I have another brother but he lives in another state and has 3 children and says he cannot help out more than a couple of times a year for 2 week visits.
I feel like I am being punished for doing the right thing by providing a home for my brother. He can take care of the basic activities of daily living but needs someone to prepare meals, clean, manage medications, and basically provide a safe environment. He has problems with repetitive actions (like turning the lights on and off 20 times), being possesive towards me, and other frustrating activities.
Anyone out there with a similar situation?
You need to look into a group home for him. It will be better for him and for you. There are some wonderful ones out there, but choose with care. Good luck to you. I've had friends in the same position you are in now. Placing their sibling in a group home has worked out wonderfully for all.
He may not be elegible for a group home, but may need a different type of care home. Contact the social services of your hospital, his doctor, your mental health association etc. Just call/talk to everyone, but document your enquries. If he has no funds, contact your state health care or help. You cannot continue as he could turn dangerous.

Miami lawyer sues Lexus over melting dashboard and pushes for class action status
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - There's new development for drivers with a melting dashboard. A Consumer Watchdog investigation first exposed the problem in April on Toyota, Lexus, Mazda, and Nissan vehicles. Now the case is headed to court for Lexus.
The lawsuit was filed this week in Miami by The Ferraro Law Firm against Lexus and a dealership in Miami and the Fort Myers area.
The lawyer is pushing for class action status.
We first told you that Lexus issued a Technical Service Bulletin about the melting and sticky dashboards for some 2006-2008 IS250 and IS350 cars.
Lexus agreed to repair the vehicles but only while they are in warranty. The lawsuit alleges Lexus breached the warranty and charged drivers to repair the dashes.
Driver Judie Brancato talked to us after our investigation. She was frustrated Lexus would only pay half her repair costs.
"I think $900 is unreasonable when it's a defect from the manufacturer," explained Brancato.
Lexus won't comment on this lawsuit.
Drivers can complain to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration about the issue.
My investigation continues into this sticky safety issue Thursday on NewsChannel 5 at 6. I'm digging through government data, and hear why a national auto safety expert feels the government needs to step in and make these manufacturers fix the problem before an accident or death happens.
Join the conversation about this sticky safety issue on Jenn's Facebook and Twitter page.

text: I would say that this review is spot on. Food is edible, but not going to blow you away. It's presented beautifully but doesn't taste as good as it looks. It's very bland, even when something sounds like it will be tasty. I'm not even a food snob and regularly visit chain restaurants, but I was not impressed with the food. It's not enough to keep me from returning, however!

Henry I survives calamity from neighbor yard
I have a Henry I that came up this spring for it's 3rd year and had a spectacular bloom and grew strong & well. One week in May, the plant starting dying pretty much all over (if there was any trend it was from the top down to base). It was 100% totally brown within a week so I ruled out insects and considered this "wilt" thing. Then, I learned that our neighbors used some type of chemical to COMPLETELY eradicate any growing thing in their yard; of course this Henry I grows on the adjoining fence. So I concluded chemical damage/death.
I was getting ready to dig it up, and replant the space, after about 6 weeks. And now we have 3 strong looking shoots coming up, that are about 12 inches tall now. So here is an example of 'don't be too quick to give up.' I am glad I did not act quickly in my anxiety & sadness back in May.
The question I had for the group is this: will this plant behave like it's spring time again i.e. first bloom and all ? Because from the plant's perspective, it's just gone through an (involuntary) dormant period. I'm not sure if my expectations should be different from the normal springtime routine. thanks !

Here is an update: The vine is now 5 1/2 ft tall with several stalks and several buds on it. Been growing amazingly fast these last couple weeks.
So whatever happened to it before, it came back - and strong. And we're going to get another huge burst of blooms so that's pretty excellent as well.
Although I'm still somewhat new to this plant, I would say this episode has changed my opinion now - I'm more confident that they are pretty tough and resilient.

The yard is absolutely bare - no planting, no more cleaning up, nothing. We think the elderly folks are gone and the young adult siblings just did not want to deal with growing anything & so opted for chemical assault.
I'm not putting any more clematis along that fence, however. I have other sections of my large backyard for future acquisitions.

They say the heart is the only instrument that still works when it's broken. September 11th is a difficult day for New Yorkers - and the rest of the country. It is also a day to reflect and continue to heal. One way through grief is to hold tight to hope for a better future and that's what the Table of Silence Project 9/11 represents.
This morning at Lincoln Center Buglisi Dance Theatre gathered 100+ dancers from NYC companies and schools to join them in a free outdoor performance. Dressed all in white, the dancers filled the square with movement of love. The piece is a remembrance for those lost and, as the company describes it, "a ritual movement for peace - a poetic call for tolerance." The dance was timed to finish at 8:46 am, the instant the first tower was struck.
If you get a chance to dance today, take a special moment to feel whatever you need to. And be thankful you can.
