Town, county can't agree how to solve long-term problem
Not long ago, Mono County taxpayers were sending a decent chunk of their hard-earned cash to a garbage disposal enterprise fund that was draining the county coffers to the tune of thousands of dollars a week, every week, when the recession hit the region.
Next meeting scheduled April 4 in Bishop
Almost everything people see in almost every direction on the Eastside is part of the huge Inyo National Forest—about two million acres of granite peaks, forest, sagebrush meadows and fast-dropping creeks that water an otherwise desert landscape.
The forest stretches from the Conway Summit area south to Lone Pine, then west until it hits the crest of the Sierra.
The Affordable Health Care Act goes into full effect in January 2014 and that means big changes in Mono County
When the Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act last year, it put the county's counties and states on notice.
Play, or figure out another way to cover the uninsured.
The State of California decided to play—one of the first and largest states to wholeheartedly embrace "Obamacare."
We can't wait to meet Mammoth's new director of community development, whoever that is.
Judging by the job description, he or she will, ideally, possess superhuman powers, with an ability to juggle a minimum of 19 specific job duties and about a dozen peripheral duties.
He or she also must leap tall buildings in a single bound, and demonstrate superhuman strength, speed, stamina, invulnerability, freezing breath, super hearing, multiple extrasensory and vision powers, longevity, flight, intelligence, and regeneration.
I have two comments on last week's article titled "Mammoth Trails website springs to life."
The Mammoth Lakes Trails System Coordinating Committee June 28, 2012, minutes note the total cost of the trails website as "approximately $225,000."
Measure R funds and Town General Funds were the major contributor, along with some private funds.
That amount, plus the approximately $30,000 budgeted for first year maintenance totals more than one quarter of a million dollars.
Community Garden & Food System Networking meeting: Mammoth Lakes
Date: March 18, 2013
Time: 3:30 PM - 5:30 PM
Location: Mammoth Lakes Town Council Chambers, Suite Z
Contact: Ilene Mandelbaum (760) 647-6644 monogreens@aol
Sponsor: Ilene Mandelbaum- Lee Vining Community Garden
WHAT: A Networking Meeting for Representatives from all the Community Gardens in Mono County and Inyo Counties, as well as Supporting Agencies, local growers and local food system advocates.
Still pending: County Administrative Officer, human resources director, risk manager
The exodus of top-level managers from Mono County government appears to have stopped and at least one vacant position is close to being filled soon.
According to Byng Hunt, the chair of the Mono County Board of Supervisors, "an offer is being negotiated as we speak" for a new finance director.
Current ordinance outdated, officials say
There are no adult businesses in Mammoth, but if and when they come, their owners have to be heads up to some new rules.
Those rules are contained in a 19-page report that was delivered to the Planning and Economic Development Commission on Wednesday, March 13.
Cameras at Village are fixed; next in line is Skate Park
For those who may have a fantasy about becoming a television or film star, the Village at Mammoth or the Volcom Brothers Skate Park are offering auditions.
The only thing an aspiring actor has to do is stir up a heap of trouble at either or both venues, and the Mammoth Lakes Police Department will give him a thumbs-up or thumbs down.
Mammoth opens new $150k economic development slot
Mammoth is on the hunt for a director of economic development, in what town Manager Marianna Marysheva-Martinez calls a "very critical" hire.
"Economic development is one of the highest priorities in the town," she said on Thursday, March 14, one day after the town's Planning and Economic Development Commission weighed in on the job description and responsibilities of the position.
Teller, Cook, and Mammoth High School racers end on high notes
The ski and snowboard racing seasons began drawing to a close last week, with Mammoth athletes turning in one of their finest seasons ever.
The California Energy Commission committee reviewing the proposed 500-megawatt (MW) Hidden Hills Solar Electric Generating System will hold two additional days of evidentiary hearings.
When: Monday, March 18, 2013 and Tuesday, March 19, 2013 beginning at 9 a.m. (March 19 will only be held if necessary)
Where: California Energy Commission, Hearing Room A, 1516 Ninth Street, Sacramento, California
Arrangements have been made for people unable to attend the meetings to participate by telephone and/or by computer. For details, click the link and scroll to page 4:
In February 2012, USDA Forest Service Chief Tom Tidwell selected the Inyo National Forest (INF) as one of the first national forests to revise its Forest Plan using the 2012 Forest Service planning rule. The INFŌĆÖs existing Forest Plan was completed in 1988 and has been amended multiple times since then. The Forest Plan provides direction and zoning for the management of a range of resources and activities such as water, wildlife, ecosystems, and recreation for the 2 million acre Inyo National Forest.
Teens on the road without parents are not normally fixated on healthy food choices, but as members of the Mammoth Mountain Ski and Snowboard Teams learned recently, they ought to be.
The reason might be critical to a race, such as the 2010 Olympic Men's Downhill, in which a mere two seconds separated the gold medal winner and the 28th-place finisher.
Supervisors approve guard rail for trailhead area
Not many people live along Lower Rock Creek and that's the way the people that do, like it.
The little community of Paradise has been waging a small war for the last few years, trying to get a developer and Mono County to make the main trailhead along the creek safe after a recent development went in near the old Paradise Lodge and Restaurant.

Who should Carolina truly be worried about as she tried to defend at the WC? Adelina and Liza were great at Euros. Does Suzuki have a chance or just Mao to dethrone the stunning Kostner? What do you think?
Who should Carolina truly be worried about as she tried to defend at the WC? Adelina and Liza were great at Euros. Does Suzuki have a chance or just Mao to dethrone the stunning Kostner? What do you think?
Kostner is in control of her own destiny at Worlds. She should be able to hold off Adelina and Liza if she goes clean, even though they have superior jump layouts. She'll make up points in spinning and expected PCS. I'm guessing the WC judges will not grant as much of a PCS discrepancy between Kostner and the Russians as was at Euros.
Suzuki definitely has a chance to beat Kostner. If you add their best international SP+FS this season, Kostner has the edge by about 3 points, but that is with an arguably inflated score at Europeans. I think the bronze will actually be battled for by Suzuki, Kostner, and maybe Wagner if she gets it together.
That being said, I can picture a clean Sotnikova/Liza taking the bronze, but they will require others to falter.
Kostner needs to worry about Yu Na (right now a definite favourite) and Mao (who, like Kostner, still garners high scores even with errors).
I 100% agree with your analysis CSG. I'm tempted to add Kaetlyn to the list of bronze contenders but she has had so little international experience that I don't think she's ready to put it all together on this big of a stage.
Kostner and Kim (and to a lesser extent, Asada) are in control of their own destiny. They don't need others to make mistake to win/medal.
And for the Russian girls, Akiko, Wagner, and Korpi, Jesus take the wheel for them.
Yes of course they all can beat the young Russians. If kostner added two more triple salchows than not only would she have beaten Liza but also sotnikova. Sotnikova and tuktamisheva don't have the jumps or don't have the pcs. They have triple triples and flip and lutz but need more if they don't get 70 pcs too.
It is amazing how when Asada is discussed some consider her inferior to Yuna and now even Kostner. Asada is not given high scores for free. Her PCS is stunning, her skating skills deserve those scores. The judges dont give her anything.

She should be worried most about herself. Defending a world title is an incredible test of nerves, especially nowadays. In the post-figures era only Kristi Yamaguchi and Michelle Kwan were able to do it. Add to that a far more competitive field compared to last year when she won, with many contenders hungry to grab the premier spotlight of the Worlds-before Olympics podium. Can she keep it together under this pressure? It would be quite a reversal from years past.
She was equal footing with the other girls when she had her 3As. She doesn't really have good technique on her flip. Her flutz was well known. She just got her Salchow back. Her best jump was her loop, and I think it's about the same level as Kostner's loop.
Tell me which one you don't agree with
Lutz, Kim > Kostner > Asada
Flip, Kostner >= Kim > Asada
Loop, Kostner = Asada > Kim
Salchow, Kostner > Kim > Asada
Toe, Kim >= Kostner > Asada
Spins, Asada >= Kostner > Kim
Steps, Kostner >= Asada > Kim
Skating Skill
Kostner > Kim > Asada
The rest of the components depend on the programs. Sometime Asada have better programs, sometime Kim have better programs, sometime Kostner have better programs.
But from the TES standpoint, she's weaker than the other two girls. I think it's a fair assessment that she's now inferior to both. Unless she regains her 3As, and improve on her flip or loop, she won't beat them in TES.

I don't think Osmond will get the PCS necessary to make the podium, even with clean skates. It's a really tall order considering several other skaters will be allowed to make errors and could still potentially come out ahead of you. I can picture her defeating a top skater or two in the SP, but being held back by PCS in the FS. Only skating clean can give her a shot at a medal, a single major error in her FS like at Canadians will immediately put her off the podium. She could pull a Takahashi/Tran and be the cleanest of the bunch and earn a bronze though. A dark horse if there ever was one.
Asada is given high scores for her free skate. Look at NHK trophy. Or even last year at Worlds when she landed 2 triples and was given the 2nd highest PCS. While I think she has improved over the years, I honestly think the main reason Mao is getting as high PCS scores as she's getting is because she's been around for a while. She certainly isn't earning them this season, IMO.
This year? Yes
Next year? If they put it any effort to increasing their PCS, than probably not.
3Z, Kim > Kostner (just got it back) >> Asada (still flutzes and doubles occasionally)
3F, Kim > Kostner > Asada (while Kostner and Kim have better technique and speed on their flip, Asada is consistently given good GOE for it, though... I give edge to Kim because she's able to tack on a 3T to hers, which is an advantage)
3L, Kostner >> Asada (Kostner has nicer transitions and better height and speed, Asada's is consistent, Kim doesn't attempt it so she really shouldn't be compared)
3S, Kostner = Kim >> Asada (Kostner has a nice salchow, but so does Kim, both do two of them, Asada's 3S is her worst)
XX-3T, Kim >>> Kostner > Asada (Kim is the only one who can reliably do her 3T in combos without UR... Kostner has a good 3T but sometimes makes errors, Asada often UR's it in combination with 2A)
2A, Asada > Kim > Kostner
Kim > Kostner > Asada
Kostner > Kim > Asada
Kim > Asada > Kostner
At this point I think Kim is obviously the one to beat and Kostner and Asada will duel it out for silver/bronze. Even though I think Kostner has better jumps than Asada, Asada is slightly more consistent and still gets similar GOE as Kostner. A huge advantage is in Kim's ability to tack on 3T to her flip/lutz/2A.
NHK trophy Mao had a bad day. But look at her performance at the GPF final, she was not given the scores she was the best that night. The claim that she is giving high PCS because she is been around time can be said about other skaters.
Yes, she had a bad day, I'm not denying that. But she was given great scores for her bad day, which is an example of the judges giving her great scores when she didn't earn them. Obviously not her fault, but it's still a recent example.
As for the claim being applied to other skaters, yes, I agree. And it's wrong in those cases, too.
Kostner finished 2nd in both SP and FS at Euros, but she did win the competition. Tuktamysheva doubled the lutz in her SP, and Sotnikova URd her 3/3 and singled the flip in her FS.
Kostner doubled two jumps in the FS but that didn't affect her marks much, as her PCS scores were huge. She doesn't have to be completely clean to beat the Russian babies, but they have to be completely clean to even have a shot at beating her.
I expect Kim and Kostner to finish 1st and 2nd in any order. If Asada has a skate like the one at the GPF, she'll take the bronze unless Wagner gets her mojo back and skates lights out.

Complete Willies Diary
360°: 2011

Vertigo: 2005/06
Show day: Dallas - Reunion Arena
01 April 2001
Show day: Dallas - Reunion Arena
This is where U2 did the first show of the Unforgettable Fire Tour in 1985, and if you'd told me then that we'd still be playing here sixteen years later I probably would have quit the business on the spot. Ah... not really. In many ways I still just as mad for it now as I was back then. Bono has talked a lot about U2 "reapplying for the job" on this tour and much as I don't personally feel the same way, it does give a man cause to look back and count his blessings. Especially on deja vu days like this. (Can it still be called 'deja vu' if you actually have been somewhere before? Or is that just called 'memory'?)
On stage, Bono told a story about how the first time U2 played in Dallas they opened for a wet T-shirt contest in some dive bar. He asked if anyone remembered the name of the place and after the show a friend of a friend confessed to having been there - Club Bijou, apparently. Later in the set Bono threw in 'Desire' and had the crew scrambling to find a harmonica which was good for a laugh at front of house. Mind you, the joke was on us in the end - Joe & I did a 'runner', and in this building that involved some fairly concentrated beating our way through the crowd to get backstage in time to join the cavalcade to the airport. This is always moderately embarrassing at best, not least because we have to make our way past pretty much the entire road crew who slag us off mercilessly with comments like "half day then?", etc. During the final bars of "Walk On" we nobly struggled through and raced out to the back of the building to find... nobody at all. Feeling rather foolish we went back inside to find out that the runner had been cancelled and no-one had told us...
Later that same day, we did finally leave to board our plane "Elevation Air". There's only one show in the next five day period - my only pressing ambition is to get a haircut. When you're on the road, some of life's simplest chores turn into epic feats of organisation. If the fates are less than entirely co-operative, tasks like doing your laundry or going to a post office present logistical challenges akin to scaling Everest. I did get to the post office during our days off in Atlanta, despite the stern warning from the hotel concierge that it was completely impossible to walk there. (True, I ended up walking down the hard shoulder of a freeway for half a mile, but did triumph eventually). The haircut eluded me though, the only option being the gentlemen's salon at the Ritz Carlton which, despite my life-long love affair with all things kitsch, was far too terrifying a concept to entertain seriously. Consequently I find myself "stuck in a hairstyle I can't get out of" and will have to survey the hairdressers of West Hollywood tomorrow. Maybe I should have gone with the Ritz after all...

Daily Shot With Ali Wentworth
Ali and Carolina Bermudez tackle the age old question, "How do you break up with your friend?" (Without them blackmailing you later.)
A look back at the greatest moments from this season of "Daily Shot," and a final scene you won't believe.
In this "lost episode" of "Daily Shot," Ali interviews her husband. Things get uncomfortable. Many months ago George Stephanopoulos came into the "Daily Shot" studio for an interview. So why hasn't it aired? While George is famous for asking hard-hitting questions on "Good Morning America," we discovered he doesn't like being on the other side of the interview table, especially when Ali is the one asking the questions. The "GMA" host did his best to be a good sport, but it's clear he wasn't altogether comfortable with his wife's "less formal" interview style or "loose interpretation of facts." That said, if you want to find out how often Ali embarrasses George or see how George rates himself against fellow handsome Greek John Stamos, check out this ... the penultimate episode of "Daily Shot"!
Top Tupperware salesperson Aunt Barbara helps Ali say goodbye with a tribute to the best past canceled shows.
On the new season of "Inside Amy Schumer" on Comedy Central, viewers can look forward to celebrity guests like Paul Giamatti of "Sideways" and "The Hangover Part II," Zach Braff of "Scrubs," Rachel Dratch of "30 Rock," and Parker Posey, among others. But the show's success doesn't mean it's easier the second time around for host and star Amy Schumer. "They gave us less money, so I'm also playing the extras," Amy jokes. Did she hook up with any of the famous guest stars who appear in Season 2? Nope. "I've never hooked up with anyone who could help my career," she says. "I've been sleeping my way down." Amy was quick to dismiss Ali's jealously over her TV success and upcoming movie, "Train Wreck," directed by Judd Apatow. "I'm lonely, and I don't have any time to enjoy my life," she said. To watch Amy play a hilarious round of "Which Is Worse?" with Ali, check out this episode of "Daily Shot."

Gallery: Lake|Flato Enters the Prefab Market With Their Breezy LEED Por...
The porch/module combo allows clients to mix and match for customizable homes and projects.
The Porch House is a fully customizable prefab housing system that is created by connecting different modules with "porches" that provide larger, more dynamic spaces. The outdoor elements include porches, breezeways, carports, and terraces. Lake|Flato has designed 9 different modules that vary in size from 28 to 46 ft long, and are of them are 17 ft wide. Units can be stacked on top of each other for a two-story building or left as a single story.
Each module is designed and built to be energy-efficient, low-maintenance and extremely durable. The rooms also seek to maximize views, breezes, daylight, and water use through smart design and efficient appliances and fixtures. Large overhangs and awnings shade the interior from overheating, and cross ventilation provides low-energy cooling. Net zero or off-grid applications are easily achieved with the addition of roof-mounted photovoltaic systems.
Modules are factory-built then transported to the site where they are set into place on a foundation or piers. Utilities, finishes, the roof, and any porch elements are then installed. Lake|Flato recently completed their first project, which consists of a series of cabin-like buildings with a few porches in between. The porch/module combo allows clients to mix and match for customizable homes and projects. Estimated time from the design to the move-in of a Porch House is 6 to 9 months.

text: industrialmonk 5pts I have been coming to Town Hall Lanes almost every weekend since they opened. I live two blocks away and was absolutely estatic that they had re-done Skylane Bowl. Over the weekends that I had been there I befriended a few bartenders (Max and Mike being my favorite). However Tonight (November 17th, 2013) I went there with three other friends (one being my brother) to play bowling and celebrate a birthday. All was great. We got one of our favorite waiters/bartenders (Max) and played at least seven games of bowling. However, when my birthday friend and I went up to the bar we were greeted with a very unfriendly female bartender whose name begins with the "M". We asked her for the "New" Ace cider on tap but she told us it was replaced by a raspberry cider and promptly got us two glasses without even asking our opinion of it. Needless to say it was a bit too tart and sour for our tastes. We paid for the drinks and apologized, saying we didn't enjoy the tartness of the drinks but would welcome the Super Strike when the bartender had a chance. She was very unwelcoming after that.After getting our drinks, she not only sloshed them on the table, spilling one over half way and getting them on the birthday boy's jeans, she ignored us for a good hour, despite the fact that we moved to the bar after bowling to get better service. We were very upset. We complained, yet she walked away. So we wrote a simple letter on the back of the receipt… not being mean nor offensive in any way..simply stating that we disagreed with her service and we wished she would be more friendly to her patrons in the future. When she grabbed the receipt from us she immediately responded with aggression…accusing us as being drunks and "unruly" despite the fact that we never raised our voices nor said anything offensive. She told us that she refused to even speak to "drunks as us" and promptly told us to get out and that we were "86'd". We have been to Town Hall every weekend since their opening since we live two blocks away. We have loved the service and never caused any trouble. This is our first experience with this Indian-type woman whose name was "Maddox" etc (she kept changing it when we asked). One of my friends who was the designated driver at the time called and asked for the manager but was met with this woman. She immediately replied "you're the drunks that were here a second ago right? What's your name? Whatever. You're 86'ed". A simple complaint against the manager was met with a banishment? If this is how Town Hall hires and conducts their employees, I am regretful that they took the place of Skylanes Bowl and couldn't live up to their name.

spanx for the face - 2/26/2015 8:24:47 AM Love this product. I can wear it with or without make-up. Great coverage, looks very natural. The tint can act as a foundation . Evens out skin tone, looks very natural.My go-to every time - 2/10/2015 2:32:38 PM Honestly this is one of my all-time favorite products. I can throw it in any bag without worrying about leakage. But, most importantly, with this I reapply SPF every couple of hours over makeup - not something everyone does. My sister-in-law had a beach wedding in the morning with beach reception all afternoon. I was the only member of the wedding who didn't end up with a massive burn. Additionally, I love that they made a powdered sunscreen that suits my super-fair skin! Most end up making me look over-bronzed or orange.Great product - 11/5/2014 6:26:41 AM I have been using this product for many years and on the few and far between times that I have not used it, I could tell the difference in my skin. I have learned NOT to use anything else on my face!! It's a great product and I use it twice a day...morning and night. Foundation goes over it very easier. Also, a little goes a long way.Great product! - 9/19/2014 4:44:31 AM This is a great primer! The chocolate balancing primer works well in the summer when I have a bit of color, but too dark otherwise, and does not control oil as well. This product controls oil without drying the skin - my face looks fresh all day and no need for blotting tissues! One reviewer said the smell is bad, but I do not find that to be the case at all. Will not be without it!Love it - 9/15/2014 2:29:58 AM This is a great product! I have very sensitive skin...breaks out and ultra sensitive to sun. I just came back from holiday in Greece and this was a savior. I never was sunburned and it is easy to carry everywhere with me.love this powder - 9/14/2014 12:17:09 PM I have been using this powder for a few years now and I love it! I have tried others and feel this is the best!Love using this powder for a healthy natural glow - 5/9/2014 2:11:07 AM I am really love with this product! I own about 30 shimmers and glow products. I'm 57. I only like ones that lend a nice shimmer minus glitter. This does that. I use a large fluffy brush and apply to most of my face but mainly the high points of the face as you would a shimmer. Then I apply a matte bronzer and a / or my blush. I can add even more shimmer but my blush has some in it (own many of them too!). This is just a nautral glow to my good older skin and it's non drying not cakey. I'm off to get the bronze powder now ;) PS & FYI; if you want sparkles and high shimmer this is not or you. I use another kind of shimmer product separate sometimes over this ..it works great...depends on the day.Nothing special - 2/23/2014 1:33:19 PM Neither color I purchased was even remotely as shown, or as suggested by the name. Merlot is a rich, dark red wine...this color is a lovely pale pink that goes on almost natural...not at all what I was expecting. Rich, nurishing formula but a little sticky, like most glosses.LOVE! - 1/13/2014 7:39:33 AM This is so much and easier and nicer to use for SPF protection plus it is a terrific finishing powder sets your makeup beautifully. Additionally, I am have sensitive skin and have never had any issues with this powderLove it!Disappointing - 12/14/2013 2:30:37 PM Based on the other reviews, I thought I found the perfect product, however this was nothing short of awful for me. It didn't come close to bronzing my skin, let alone brighten it. It blended poorly and dried out my skin to the point that it felt cracked and made it crease into every fine line I have. It also made me break out and that isn't something I can tolerate anymore at 49. It's going back--too bad it didn't work as perfectly for me as the others. Love Skinstore customer service and return policy however -

Community groups get grant funds
Joshua Sebold
Staff Writer
The Plumas County Community Development Commission (CDC) board approved the regional Community Action Agency's (CAA) funding decisions for the 2011 calendar year at a December meeting.
The local CAA serves as an advisory board, helping the CDC decide where to give out community service grant funds in Lassen, Plumas and Sierra Counties.
These grants should not be confused with the county funded economic development grants, which will be given out by the Plumas Board of Supervisors in January.
CAA Chairman Elliott Smart, who also serves as Plumas County's social services director, said this funding was intended for community based organizations and government entities who help "low-income and underserved populations in the county."
Smart said organizations in Plumas County received $33,624, while the county retained $30,000 to conduct grant research on the behalf of community organizations and provide them assistance with the application process.
"I have to say that has been a hugely successful activity over the course of time," the chairman commented.
"That small investment of roughly $30,000 has generated millions of dollars for our community based organizations. It's just a huge return on that kind of investment."
CDC Executive Director David Keller said a new program this year was a Lifeline emergency call system for seniors, provided through Plumas District Hospital's Plumas Health Care Foundation.
Chester Commissioner Sherrie Thrall was pleased to see Plumas was getting funding for work in other counties, like the Plumas County Library's literacy program in Sierra County.
Keller agreed this was one of the better aspects of the program; the counties worked together and took a regional approach to problem solving.
Graeagle Commissioner Ole Olsen asked if any requests for funding were turned down.
Smart said all the Plumas applications were funded, although most got less than they solicited.
He added that the CAA had never been able to fund so many requests before.
CDC Chairwoman Lori Simpson, who represents Plumas on the CAA board, said the group put an emphasis on family resource centers this year.
Keller agreed, explaining the centers served as "one-stop organizations that deal with a variety of issues and problems in the community and really need assistance and support because they really do provide such a wide variety of services and really are a point of contact for lots of people."
Thrall commented that she really appreciated the grant assistance program, as it allowed groups like the county's small recreation districts to pursue larger funding opportunities, which they would struggle to do otherwise with their limited resources.

A person, who usually is an angsty, depressed goth/punk, who think s/he's cool because s/he wear shirts that say "You laugh at me because I'm different, I laugh at you because you're all the same" and other assorted wear from Hot Topic or Torrid even though that makes them a hypocrite as those shops are just as brand-name as Abercrombie, GAP, or Old Navy. The people behind Hot Topic and Torrid are exactly like the people behind GAP and Old Navy: they laugh all the way to the bank as you unthinking, impressionable teens buy their over-priced clothing, and you become a walking billboard for Corporate America when you don their shoddy clothes, just like the "prep" clique you hate so much.
I think I'm sooo unique because I'm wearing a shirt from a company that tells me who I am. I am a sell-out.

A person who refuses to live their life according to the prep mold (abercrombie, american eagle, Blink 182, etc.) and styles their own personality. They don't all wear black clothing, and they are not all outcasts. Most just don't want to be a dumb jock or pinhead cheerleader. Anti-preps dress and act how they want, not how the popular kids dress and act, but they can still be popular. Not all shop at the Salvation Army store. And above all, they are not anti-prep because they cannot find friends with the more popular, athletic, intelligent, and skillful people. In fact, there is no one on this planet who is all four of those things.
Anyone who thinks that anit-preps are losers should take a look in the mirror and see what mold they fit into. Anti-preps just break the mold.

The anit-preps got picked on by the dumb jocks, who were neither skillful nor intelligent, but in the end the dumb jocks were too dumb to get anywhere and now pump gas at the local Mobil Station.

A group of people defined by another group of people. Anti-Preps are the reactionary result of preps, therefore they are a product of that which they hate. (making them hate themselves, maybe?) Neither group being better or worse then the other, only different from one another.
Joe was shunned by prep faggots, therefore he became an anti-prep faggot.

I am an anti-prep because i am against preps. I am not saying that all preps are snotty stuck up bitches, but the ones i know are so therefore i call myself an anti-prep. Anti-preps don't make excuses for not getting to be in the "in crowd" they choose to not be in the in crowd.
Proud to be an anti-prep!

Hammel set for first career start at Wrigley
Pirates hand the ball to Wandy for rematch of Opening Series
The Cubs are well into celebrating the 100th birthday of Wrigley Field -- a storied place which has managed to reach such an age without Jason Hammel ever having made footprints in it.
Missing each other has not been easy. Hammel, 31, is in the ninth season of a career that has seen him pitch 216 games, 97 of them in the National League. But he has never toed the pitching rubber at Wrigley Field.
That will change Wednesday night, when the newest Cub meets up with Pirates lefty Wandy Rodriguez in the middle game of the teams' series.
While waiting for his turn to pitch, Hammel has been making the park's acquaintance.
"I've just been getting a feel for it," he said. "I remember walking down the tunnel to come into the clubhouse the first time, I was confused. I've just been getting my bearings and a comfort level over the last three, four days, and it's been good."
The Pirates, conversely, have already met Hammel, and it wasn't a particularly enjoyable experience. Not signed as a free agent until the Cubs had already opened their Mesa, Ariz., Spring Training camp, the Orioles' 2013 Opening Day starter may not have a history at Wrigley Field, but he has one against the Bucs.
Hammel owns three wins in four starts against the Pirates, including Thursday in Pittsburgh, where he pitched 6 2/3 innings of two-hit ball for the decision, opposing Rodriguez.
Clint Hurdle has an even better knowledge of Hammel: He managed him for two months in 2009, after Colorado acquired him in trade from Tampa Bay and before the Rockies dismissed Hurdle.
"He's gonna be around the zone," Hurdle said. "He changed speeds [in the Pittsburgh game] and kept hitters off balance. We got balls to hit, but didn't. When you miss balls that you shouldn't and a guy's on, he'll usually make you pay, and that's what he did to us."
Pirates: Showing off small-ball smarts
Pirates batting coach Jeff Branson watched proudly as the Bucs manufactured the winning run Tuesday night on three walks and a sacrifice fly.
Neither plate discipline nor situational hitting were trademarks of the 2013 team offense.
"The guys are understanding how to manufacture runs," said Branson, who took over as hitting coach this season after serving in '13 as assistant to Jay Bell, who has moved on to become the Reds' bench coach. "Every at-bat is a team at-bat. They got to the point where it is about the team, not their at-bat.
"They understand what this guy [the pitcher] is trying to do to them and not giving in. They see how the work they put in can help the team do exactly what we did tonight -- we were able to manufacture a run. We can't rely on the pitching staff every night."
Cubs: Kalish finding a home
In his brief Major League career, which was interrupted last season by a serious neck injury, Ryan Kalish has batted everywhere but third in the lineup. Right now, Cubs manager Rick Renteria likes the left-handed hitting outfielder in the two-hole.
"Ryan gives you great at-bats," Renteria said. "I think I could put him anywhere from one through nine, and he would still give you a great at-bat. He works the counts."
Kalish, who starts against right-handed pitchers as part of Renteria's early platoon system, has the most at-bats in the eighth spot in the order. Renteria does like to change things up. For now, Kalish will hit second.
"It's a good spot for him," Renteria said. "He can handle the bat."
Worth noting
• Opposing teams' leadoff batters -- the Cubs' Emilio Bonifacio and the Cardinals' Matt Carpenter -- have combined to go 18-for-31 against the Pirates in the first seven games of the season.
• Starling Marte has a nine-game hitting streak in Wrigley Field and is 16-for-37 across that stretch.

Introduction | Index of extinct birds | Links
Ou Psittirostra psittacea (Gmelin, 1789)
Heavy losses The fact that the various species of Drepanididae or Hawaiian honeycreepers are not discussed separately but as a group, illustrates the heavy losses this family has suffered. Fifteen species are extinct and of the remaining species four subspecies have disappeared. Many of the surviving (sub)species are on the verge of extinction. Like the Darwin-finches of the Galápagos Islands, the Hawaiian honeycreepers show a wide range of feeding adaptations, as is illustrated in the highly specialized, very diverse beaks of the various species. Birds which extract honey from flowers or insects from holes and crevices in trees have long, thin and curved beaks, wheras the beaks of Drepanididae that live on various kinds of fruits or seeds are finch- or parrot-like. Several species played an important role in pollinating some of the endemic plants. Now that many Drepanididae have disappeared, some of these plants are also faced with extinction. The role of the birds has partly been taken over by volunteers, who, armed with brushes, scout the volcano slopes and carefully transport pollen from one plant to another.
Museum specimens Most skins of Drepanididae in Naturalis were collected by Robert Perkins, a British ornithologist who lived on Hawai'i. They were donated to the museum on 13 February 1901 by Alfred Newton, chairman of "the joint commitee appointed by the Royal Society and British Association for Zoology of the Hawaiian Islands". The donation existed of 19 skins and one nest. According to Newton it was a very valuable collection. In fact worth at least £ 30 ! The accompanying letter testifies the importance of the donation. Newton writes to Otto Finsch, curator of birds at the museum: "I hope the Birds will be appreciated, as I am sure they will be by you, as you are aware of the fact that the whole indigenous Fauna of the Islands is doomed to extinction, even the insects are rapidly disappearing ("Yes! and even the Landshells!!"). I do not say this to enhance the value of one little collection, but in the interest of science, that all possible care may be taken to keep the specimens for posteriority. Of some of these species I am confident it will never be in anybody's power to obtain more specimens. On the Island of Oahu Mr. Perkins estimates that one half of the species of birds originally inhabiting it, are already extinct, and some which were fairly common, are now hardly to be found, so rapid has been the change." Newton's pessimism proved to be justified. Around 1900 the Hawaii Mamo Drepanis pacifica, the Kona Grosbeak Chloridops kona, the nominate race of the Oahu Nukupuu Hemignathus lucidus lucidus and all forms of the Akialoa with the exception of the Greater (Kauai) Akialoa, Hemignatus ellisianus stejnegeri, were extinct. The Kauai Akialoa was last seen in the 1960s and is now also considered extinct.

text: 141 min | PG13 In this sci–fi action epic from Guillermo del Toro, legions of monstrous creatures start rising from the sea, beginning a war that would take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for many years. Even the cutting edge robots designed to fight the monsters are proving nearly useless up against their relentless attack. Close to defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes: a washed up former pilot and an untested trainee who team up to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete robot from the past. Together they stand as mankind's last hope against the mounting apocalypse.
