The Los Alamos girls U19 rugby team picked up two big victories, one against New Mexico State University, and held its own against the University of New Mexico in recent play.
Los Alamos thumped Glendale, Colo., 72-0 in a trip to Denver, then traveled south to Las Cruces to soundly defeat NMSU's women's team 63-29. Los Alamos lost to UNM's women's team earlier this month by a count of 33-10.
Against Glendale's Raptors, several players scored multiple times. Sidney Provan, Michelle Dinkel and Carlin Morris scored three tries in the game, while Jodi Cull-Host earned a pair of tries.
Also scoring for Los Alamos were Lauren Mendez and Morghan Medrick in the rout.
For its game against NMSU, Los Alamos picked up three players from the Atomic Sisters Rugby Club in Albuquerque to aid in the effort.
Dinkel again posted a big game, scoring four tries, three of them on long runs. Morris also added a try for Los Alamos.
Morgan Osborn, Gabriella Conley-Lopez, Orli Shlachter and Lauren Mendez we able control the tempo of the match by maintaining possession of the ball allowing Dinkel and Morris to break through NMSU for the scores.

Los Angeles Clippers superstar forward Blake Griffin is one of the most electrifying players in the NBA with his highlight-reel dunks and amazing athleticism.
Griffin has a pretty impressive skill set, but Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson doesn't seem too impressed. Thompson added another layer to the rapidly growing Clippers-Warriors rivalry during a Wednesday radio appearance on 95.7 The Game by taking a shot at Griffin for his flopping.
Klay Thompson of @warriors on 95.7, abt Blake Griffin: "You see him flop sometimes like how can a guy that big and strong flop that much?"
Sean Deveney (@SeanDeveney) April 16, 2014
Here we go! Klay Thompson on @957thegame "[Blake] is a good guy off the cour, but he plays pretty physical and flops a little bit."
Ramona Shelburne (@ramonashelburne) April 16, 2014
Griffin's flopping is well documented, and some of his flops have been hysterical, like the one that drew him a foul against the Sacramento Kings during the 2011-12 season.
This criticism from Thompson, combined with Griffin saying in January that Golden State plays "cowardly basketball," would make a playoff series between these two California teams must-see television.

Check these out, too...
If you've never gone a day without eating meat and find the idea of it to be absurd, then take this as a challenge. It may be difficult, but you'll be surprised by how motivated you will be when you accept it as the GL-Dares-Ya challenge it is. Plus, with a few simple switches, you can turn your fave meat-ful meals into delicious vegetarian dishes. Check out our fave switch-a-roos below:
Instead of chicken parm...try eggplant parm
Chicken covered with cheese and marinara sauce has to be one of the best meat meals ever created, but it is really easy to switch this to a vegetarian meal. Simply swap the chicken for eggplant. With all the cheese and sauce, you won't even notice that the chicken is out of the picture. Plus, most restaurants already offer this as an option, making it a go-to indulgent Italian dish.
Instead of chicken stir-fry…try tofu stir-fry
A stir-fry is already full of really good veggies. Throw in some tofu and leave out the chicken or beef to make it a totally delicious vegetarian recipe. Tofu really doesn't taste like anything, so once you sauté it with soy sauce, garlic, red pepper flakes and some hot chili sauce, it will be the best thing you have ever tasted.
Instead of beef lasagna…try spinach lasagna
Layers and layers of noodles, cheese, sauce and…spinach? Yup, forget the beef and reach for some spinach in this classic dish that everyone loves! The spinach makes this a veggie dish, gives you tonsa nutrients and you won't even taste it because of all the other delicious ingredients.
Instead of a hamburger…try a black bean burger
Heading to a cookout? Opt for a black bean burger. This is probably the easiest switch because there are so many frozen veggie burgers to choose from if you don't wanna DIY it. Pick up a package and have your parents throw it on the grill for you. Don't forget about the toppings!
Instead of beef chili…try three-bean chili
Warm, spicy beef chili can make any day better. Except, of course, a day when you're trying to be a vegetarian. Ditch the beef and triple the amount of beans in the chili. For a flavor boost, toss in our fave trio: black, red and pinto beans.

While visiting with my daughter, the conversation turned to cars she and I remembered over the years when she, her sister and brothers were growing up. We laughed as I said I recalled a nephew telling me that my husband and I bought disposable cars.
One of the first cars we talked about was a very small black and yellow two-door vehicle that we paid $200 for. The four children all fit nicely in the back seat at the time. An added advantage of that car was the back seat could be pulled up and the back of the seat pushed down to provide a flat space. That space became a sleeping and play area...

Completely Overhaul the UI
from basic design choices like color of text and color(s) of backgrounds - to where to place things and how to display different information - to how the user actually interacts with it -
the UI is terrible. it honestly looks like a 2nd year student's half-assed UI project i assume there must be some good reasons why there seems to be such a lack of thought, planning and experience with it, but i can't figure out what those reasons might be. at any rate, the current UI needs to be completely gutted. i'm talking back to the drawing board here. i can suggest some principles/ideas to follow when redesigning your UI: keep it simple - visually and functionally
keep the most common tasks the most visible/accessible
never display "walls of text" to the user (this includes dialogue)
never be distracting with what you have on the screen when you are trying to communicate something important to the user
and the minimap/compass needs to better display where your units currently are
another specific issue i currently have is with the "chat" ui ALWAYS FLASHING. right away any ui designer should know that anything that is going to be updated as frequently as chat should NOT flash every time it is updated - this goes for tabs as well as the big "CHAT" expand/collapse button on the left of the screen. this is annoying as heck having it flashing all the time. and i'm pretty sure that the chat updates are causing some sort of sound effect to be played constantly as well - a "ding", i think - is playing very often and it is also VERY annoying. this is not the first time i've seen ui designers do **** like this and every time i see/hear this kind of thing in a game, it makes me want to just sit in a room with that designer with me saying "DINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDINGD INGDINGDINGDING" and constantly waving my hands in their face. if it ****es you off then it's a good bet it will **** your users off too. please stop doing this kind of thing in games!

Maybelline Dream Wonder Fluid Touch Foundation for Lightweight Coverage
Maybelline Dream Wonder Fluid Touch Foundation offers a new way to get lightweight, natural coverage this Fall. Liquid fluid isn't a new medium as Armani was one of the first brands to venture into the liquid foundation world. But we're seeing more and more fluid foundations and I imagine they'll be huge come Fall.
I imagine Maybelline Dream Wonder Fluid Touch Foundation will likely be compared to L'Oreal Magic Nude Liquid Powder, a product I didn't like, but I'm here to tell you it's much better and not like L'Oreal's formula.
Take a look!
Maybelline Dream Wonder Fluid Touch Foundation comes in a glass jar and features a tear drop application with a tiny point at the end. As of now displays appear to have 12 shades but this is a permanent product for Fall 2014 so perhaps we'll see more shades launch at some point.
I have to say I dislike the glass jar because I'm clumsy. I picture myself dropping this on my bathroom title and having it explode all over me and the floor in a million pieces. Eeep!
Maybelline recommends shaking well prior to using and slowly remove the wand from the top of the bottle. Please be careful when doing this. I noticed the rim and lip of the bottle gets very messy, very quickly and the wand tends to drip foundation all over the place. Just be careful you don't get it on your clothes as you remove it.
The applicator is a plastic tear drop shape with a fine point at the end. The point allows for you to drip the foundation onto your fingertip without touching the applicator. This is great for me. I use my fingers when I apply foundation and bb cream so this works out fine for me. It could frustrate those who use a brush to apply foundation though as you might feel the bottle and applicator are messy when removing more foundation to use with a brush. Personally I think this applies best fingers anyway!
The texture is beautiful. It's very runny yet hydrating with a slightly dewy finish. It does not adhere to my drier areas and creates a very smooth, even finish on my skin. Coverage ranges from sheer but can be built up for more coverage although keep in mind this will never be a medium or full coverage foundation. It should do well covering smaller visible pores, redness, darkness, and will even out skin tone giving a brighter, smoother appearance. I find it fades quickly on my skin so you do have to set with powder to extend the wear. It absorbs super fast and provides a very seamless, natural look on my skin but almost within two hours of wear I feel like it slips off into never never land. However, when setting with powder I can get a decent five hours of wear (I just dislike using powder to set as I have drier skin!).
Maybelline Dream Wonder Fluid Touch Foundation Swatches (20 Classic Ivory)
Maybelline Dream Wonder Fluid Touch Foundation Swatches (40 Nude)
Needless this has a lot of going things going for it. First off the texture and coverage is very unique to drugstore foundations and very easy to use as it absorbs and blends out picture perfectly. It also has a beautiful seamless look that brightens skin and creates a very natural your skin but better look. The wear time though is a little iffy…..it'll likely vary from skin type to skin type but I see it wearing pretty shortly on oily skin and not much better for drier!
Overall, if the shorter wear time that Maybelline Dream Wonder Fluid Touch Foundation provides doesn't bother you, I'd say this formula is quite gorgeous and well worth checking out for breathable, lightweight, flawless coverage!
It's launching now at drugstores.
Will you be trying Maybelline Dream Wonder Fluid Touch Foundation?
Have you already?

This product was purchased

Read my full disclosure statement here.
6/13/14 14:00 Kimmwc03:
Thanks for the review. I was unsure about it when I saw it at my local "and that" store so I did not purchase. Have a good weekend!
6/13/14 15:09 Isabella Muse:
my pleasure! I hope you try it kim it's interesting! TGIF!
6/13/14 15:12 Jessica:
Muse, I tried this a few days ago. You know what it reminds me of texture wise? The long discontinued L'Oreal AirWear foundation. That used to be one of my favorites. It doesn't seem to last as long as AirWear did but the texture, and blendability reminds me so much of it.
6/13/14 15:18 Isabella Muse:
god I wanna say I heard and know of airwear but I can't remember it jessica. I do think people will automatically think or L'Oreal Magic (which I hated)! Did you like the formula? I really loved it but the wear was too short
6/13/14 15:48 Jessica:
Muse, I LOVE the formula. I'm going to continue to play around with it, using different primers and finishing powders to see how to extend the wear time. That's the only thing about this that disappointed me. For a formula that feels so light and dreamy on the skin, the wear time is horrid. Today I'm wearing it on top of Dior's DreamSkin
L'Oreal AirWear was once my holy grail foundation. I have dry skin (slather it in La Mer) so it's hard to find foundations and primers that don't pill up, feel heavy, or dry me out further.
I didn't do well with L'Oreal's Magic didn't work for me but friends with oily skin are loving it.
6/13/14 16:13 Isabella Muse:
me too because I really like it as well! very natural and breathable coverage I had to google but I think I remember airwear now but never tried it myself! yeah, same here, doesn't magic feel gritty? or am I nuts?!
6/13/14 16:32 Jessica:
It does feel gritty! Like baking soda scrub gritty. It's a shame you never tried AirWear, it was great for us dry girls. You'd be in the why did they discontinue this club.
6/27/14 10:27 Isabella Muse:
maybe I have to check e-bay just to get a feel for it I'm positive someone has a decade old bottle hanging out somewhere haha!
6/13/14 20:27 Jessica:
It's definitely gritty feeling to me. Like baking soda gritty
6/20/14 14:38 Isabella Muse:
oh no
6/13/14 23:39 Chelsea:
This kind of makes me wish I hadn't recently purchased expensive foundation! I don't wear it everyday anyway, but this looks lovely.
6/17/14 16:58 Isabella Muse:
that's ok chelsea, imho expensive foundation is well worth the splurge!
6/17/14 22:20 Chelsea:
Definitely! Especially being hard to match! I've not had great luck with Maybelline in the past for colors (the lightest Fit-Me stick is salmon pink on me!)
6/18/14 16:14 Isabella Muse:
I have same issue so don't feel bad sometimes foundation is worth splurging on for not only formula but also color range!
6/14/14 19:31 Lacy:
I def will be trying this once I find it. Glad to hear all the positive reviews sans wear time
6/17/14 16:55 Isabella Muse:
looking forward to your thoughts lacy!
6/15/14 2:56 Holly Johnson:
I really must try this. Too bad it doesn't come with at least 1 oz of product:(
6/15/14 3:06 Lindsay:
Classic Ivory looks like it might be just right for me, now I'm super excited to try this. Thank you for the review, the formula sounds like it's just what I look for.
6/17/14 16:47 Isabella Muse:
my pleasure Lindsay love to hear your thoughts if you try!
6/15/14 20:31 koolchicken:
I think if you prefer a brush or sponge you could just wipe the applicator onto a clean plate or even just pour some out of the bottle. I know that's what I've done in the past when I wanted to use a brush. I kept a small (plastic) plate by my makeup just for that purpose and hand washed it after each use.
6/17/14 16:46 Isabella Muse:
great idea!
6/16/14 6:05 Jane:
I got this this weekend and really like it, although I suspect my skin might not. It mattifies and really lasts, giving me porcelain face!
6/16/14 9:26 Isabella Muse:
happy to hear it jane. but what happened? break out?
6/16/14 13:49 kellly:
I sampled it yesterday at Target and liked it so well I'm going to go back tonight to get one. It covers better than Armani Maestro, has a creamier consistency and the wear (on my hand in the store, mind you) seemed good. I tried wiping it off and it stayed put. I liked it enough to give it a try. I just wish I was able to find it for such a great price as you saw! I think it's about $11-$12 around here but still worth a try.
6/17/14 16:43 Isabella Muse:
yay I'm glad to hear it kellly! but damn on the price
6/17/14 11:13 Ryou:
The funny thing is that the ingredients list is EXACTLY the same as L'Oreal Magic Nude Liquid Powder. I wonder how the two formula could end up being very different for you.
6/17/14 11:27 Isabella Muse:
no kid! didn't compare! maybelline's version feels a lot creamier!
6/20/14 9:29 Ryou:
Yep, exact same ingredients list, down to the order of the ingredients! I hope this means there's less alcohol in the Maybelline's version compared to the L'Oreal.
6/26/14 2:30 rawortley:
Funny because I've seen that in ingredients are like identical to the loreal. I tested it at target and I didn't think it felt like the loreal as much either..though I too expected it to. Maybe I just didn't pay enough attention because I have well over 20 foundation and have my eyes on the Marc Jacobs ridiculously expensive mousse….but I do find it weird the ingredients are so close…
6/28/14 21:15 Lynn:
Thanks for the review I'm about NC20-25. I'm wondering if you can recommend a shade. Thanks!
6/30/14 11:06 Jennifer Borkowski:
Hi! I just bought this and am in shock! It's really unlike anything that I've ever tried. I almost didn't buy it because I was afraid that ther me was no way it would cover. Again…I'm in shock. It covers beautiful, and I have rosacea. I can't stand a luminous finish and this, to me, seems smooth, velvety and almost powder like??? To me it felt like it this even as I was applying with my finger. I'm typically a Lancôme 24 hr user, but my favorite is honestly maybelline dream matte. The whipped one. Even that would look very shiny throughout the day. I checked all my same go to mirrors in my house, and they all tell the same powdery, even toned story! I'm ridiculously excited, and hope the wear isn't awful. I did but natural beige but am wanting a shade with more yellow in it. Any suggestions?
7/1/14 14:54 Mary:
I have very sensetive skin will I breakout
7/1/14 17:18 Mary:
From the maybeline
7/6/14 1:55 stevee:
I was really scared this would break me out because the dream mousse gave me one of the worse breakout of my life. It took weeks to get my skin back under control. I actually don't have an issue with the wear time…its not the greatest but its not the worse. I have oily acne prone skin and live in florida so i always use setting powder of some sort. My only issue is i hate the application with a passion it gets messy and takes several dips to get enough product.
7/17/14 20:38 charlotte:
I bought it last week and wore it once for a full day (I bought the wrong color and it was a bit dark).. I found it to have really nice coverage, it was not full coverage but it evened my skin tone beautifully. It wore really well as well, stayed even and "invisible" throughout. I would highly suggest anyone with rosacea or hyperpigmentation give it a try. I live in S. Louisiana and have oily/combo skin.. I was really impressed with how it wore, even in the heat it went a full day with only the slightest bit of stickiness around my nose after six to eight hours. I did use my usual primer and powder so I would suggest that for anyone have trouble with the staying power. It felt fantastic on too, like there was nothing there. I'm exchanging mine first chance I get.
8/6/14 2:06 breyerchic04:
Muse, you made me so happy today! A few days ago my beloved MAC Face and Body disappeared. So I've been wearing UD Naked this week, and for some reason, though I loved it a year or so ago, it's just not fitting the bill right now. The other day I thought that if I'd just buy a new drugstore foundation, Face and Body would come back from whatever deep hiding hole it's in. Today I was reading your blog as normal and saw the Armani one you mentioned, and then clicked over to this, because it was more what I'm currently looking for (in that it's not $60). I ran to Walgreens before dinner and put this new Maybeline foundation on in the car, it's so perfect! I love the lightness, I like the silky feel and the finish is so natural and yet perfected. I'll still be thrilled to find Face and Body because I love it, but this is a great choice for those on a budget or when you need something different.
8/6/14 10:16 Isabella Muse:
fantastic I am so so so glad you picked this up breyer and that it worked for you It's perfect lightweight coverage! Set with powder and it looks so natural and pretty glad you're enjoying it
8/15/14 15:14 Amanda:
I LOVE this foundation. It is better than the expensive foundations I have tried, and I have tried toooooooooo many. I'm greasy so I do prime and powder but find this natural and wonderful!
10/27/14 21:51 Axian:
Great Review! You can grab this foundation for $2.49 at Rite Aid as they are having a sale!

The bottle design reminds me of Perricone's No Foundation Foundation. It also has the dropper feature, as well. But Perricone's only comes in two shades, that I'm aware of and it's much more expensive.

The highly-rated Windsor-born back row, recently on England Sevens duty in Dubai, will link up with his new team-mates at Sixways Stadium later this week.
The 25-year-old has previously played at Bath Rugby, Exeter Chiefs, Cornish Pirates, Newbury and Harlequins.
A hugely gifted Sevens performer, Cracknell earned rave reviews just last week as he scored two tries as England were narrowly beaten in the IRB Dubai Sevens, where he played alongside new Worcester team-mate Jake Abbott.
Director of Rugby Mike Ruddock said he was delighted to have secured the former England U21 ace.
"Chris has signed a contract that will allow him to be part of our squad and feature for us until the end of this season," said Ruddock.
"I have taken these steps to cover the injury to Netani Talei, who unfortunately will be out until towards the end of the season after shoulder reconstruction.
"It was important that we reinforced this area and I'm particularly pleased to have signed a player of the quality of Chris Cracknell.
"He is a very well respected English qualified back row forward of immense potential. He has learnt his trade playing for teams like Exeter Chiefs and Cornish Pirates and, more recently, he was at Bath until Luke Watson arrived.
"Chris has also featured heavily for England Sevens and is quite obviously a very talented prospect. We look forward to seeing him the Warriors colours before too long."

Weekend Update: A visit to Ghost Town at Knott's Berry Farm
, 01-30-2009 at 10:51 PM
As I put together this week's edition of the Weekend Update, the MiceChat Special Events Crew is busy preparing for the MiceChat 4th Anniversary Party. We're expecting as many as three hundred MiceChatters to converge on the Disneyland Resort this weekend to celebrate four years of this wonderful place we call MiceChat. If you haven't heard about this annual extravaganza yet, you can read more about it HERE.
Since so many of our contributors are getting ready for the big party this week, we are devoting the column to the work of darkfairycthulu. He brings us a very detailed look at the Ghost Town at Knott's Berry Farm and follows that up with some more images from his great vintage postcard collection.
Never fear, we have lots more in store for you in the coming weeks including the return of TDLFAN, Ian Parkinson is going to take us to New Zealand, MickeyMaxx has more from his German Holiday, plus many more surprises.
Before we turn things over to darkfairycthulu though, we have some fresh images of Walt Disney World from Denise nbodyhome Preskitt.

Ghost Town at Knott's Berry Farm
Buena Park, California
Ghost Town is the oldest part of the Knott's amusement park, and includes most of the buildings Walter brought to the property in the 1940s and 1950s.
This themed area includes attractions such as the narrow gauge Ghost Town & Calico Railway (using much historic equipment from Colorado narrow-gauge lines including C-19 engines 340 and 41 from the Rio Grande & Southern). The Butterfield Stagecoach ride includes 3 original Butterfield coaches, 1 Halloday coach, 1 Overland Southern coach and the Knotts Berry Farm coach that was built for the farm in 1954. Also there is a Pan-for-Gold attraction, the Calico Mine Ride dark ride, Timber Mountain Log Ride, Calico Saloon Show and The Wild West Stunt Show.
More recently, the much-acclaimed GhostRider wooden roller coaster has been added. In late 2004 Knott's opened the longest inverted roller coaster on the West Coast, Silver Bullet along with Screamin' Swing: the world's first air-powered swing.
Ghost Town itself has a place in history aside from the buildings brought here. The Bird Cage Theatre melodrama theater (currently only used during the Christmas season) has launched many acting careers, including that of Steve Martin. The Calico stage is a venue that has hosted acts ranging from elementary school singers & dancers to the melon smashing Gallagher.
The Ghost Town section is based upon the real ghost town of Calico, California near Barstow, and other ghost towns in the Western United States. Walter Knott purchased the Calico ghost town in 1951 and restored it. In 1966 he donated the town to San Bernardino County, which made it a regional park.
First stop was the geode/rock store.
Mark Twain disapproves of you.
The Ghost Town streets had far more "peek-in" windows still in place than I expected, all of which had the lovely "Westworld/mannequins are going to come to life and kill me" vibe going on.
The ever popular "leg of the fleeing lady of the night" display.
A morgue and rooms to rent?!? Count me in!
The undertaker's office interior had a pretty good Pepper's Ghost display vignette I wasn't expecting.
From this....
to this...
Look out Zeke! There's a roller coaster sneakin' up on ya!
Antique fortune telling device, the Grandma model...let's see what she had to say...
"You will have given all your money to a giant cartoon mouse"
Want to go in and take a look around the Western museum? I know I do.
The calls are coming from inside the house!
Great display of old postcards and Knott's paper goods.
For when the nights got boring on the frontier.
I don't want to talk about this one.
Walter's collection of buttons and pins.
And out we go again, to the streets of Ghost Town, headed for the old Calico Mine...
A show going on inside the old Saloon...
Thankfully, Knott's has on display not one, but two vintage hearses! Score!
And one even has a dead guy who sits up and stares at the tourists, with the hungry, blank stare of the restless undead!
Overall, it was good to see the park and Ghost Town looked good, was well kept up and more detailed than I get the sense of at Haunt. That being said...I never really ventured into the other areas of the park, and felt no urge to do so...and certainly the red roller coaster pylons plopped randomly behind the cemetary and around the edges of ghost town don't look good or fit in at all. I am glad I went, and am glad Ghost Town is still around, but don't feel the urge to pay to go in non-Haunt any time soon.
Here's this week's installment of vintage postcard images collected by darkfairycthulu:
'Rainbow Caverns: The Rainbow Ridge mine train tunnels deep into the beautiful Rainbow Caverns where surging waterfalls and multi-colored stalactites and stalagmites are viewed in breathtaking splendor."
The Rainbow Caverns Mine Train began operating in Disneylands new Living Desert in 1956. The Living Desert also served as the enhanced home of the Stagecoaches, the Conestoga Wagons, and the Pack Mules which all had premiered in Disneylands inaugural year, 1955.
In 1960, the Mine Train attraction was upgraded to become the Mine Train through Natures Wonderland. The Conestoga Wagons and the Stagecoaches disappeared during this expansion, but the Pack Mules were allowed to stay.
"Samoa Cookhouse: 4 Minutes from Eureka, California. The Samoa Cookhouse, the last surviving cookhouse in the West, continues the tradition of serving lots of good food-Lumber camp style. The museum and dining rooms feature early culinary items in addition to historical mementos from the early years of the lumber and logging industries. Three private rooms are available for large or small gatherings."
Samoa Cookhouse, the last surviving lumberjack camp style cookhouse in the West, has been serving heaping meals since 1893. Located near Eureka, California, there's no doubt that locals and visitors know about this family-friendly restaurant, which serves up to 15,000 meals on a busy day such as Mother's Day.
"The Flooded Mine at Silver Dollar City, Missouri: An entertainment feature of this famed attraction in the Ozarks. Visitors ride through the flooded shafts in ore barges."
Silver Dollar City, Branson, Missouri, is one of the most popular vacation destinations in the country. Travel back in time to the simplicity of 1880s America, and enjoy the best in Branson entertainment plus a host of festivals and events.
No, it's not the result of a Central Florida tornado: it's Norman Johnson's Upside-Down House, a gimick to drive traffic to Sunrise Golf Village. There similar, but right side up, houses were for sale ("from $11,500 FHA - VA -CONV.").
This is one way to get people to walk through your model home. That's a real car upside-down in the carport, real standard size furniture was hung from the "floor" inside.
Now, there's only one question: when demolished, would you say they tore it down -- or tore it up?

LETTER TO THE EDITOR | We'll exercise our rights
To the editor:
Public use of Deer Lagoon's Dike 4 for passive recreation at all times of the year is something we take for granted on South Whidbey. Access to the dike was upheld by the court in Brown vs. H&H Properties in 1993, and we've been walking there ever since.
The county-owned portion of Deer Lagoon is under the administration of the department of public works. Public — as in "open for the equal benefit of all."
So know this: We will exercise our right to walk on the dike, regardless of whether or not shooters, who are not legally privileged in their enjoyment of the lagoon, are present. We will exercise our right to kayak, wade and skip rocks on the lagoon, whether or not shooters, who are not legally privileged in their enjoyment of the lagoon, are present.
And by the way, we cannot guarantee our children won't find their way to the lagoon on their own some foggy winter morning when visibility is down to 30 yards.
Island County commissioners cannot legally protect non-shooters by excluding them from the lagoon. By the same token, they cannot legally exclude non-shooters unless they exclude shooters as well.
So what are they going to do about that? When a non-shooter engaged in passive recreation on the lagoon gets injured by an accidental shotgun blast, are county officials going to say "Too bad. You got what you deserved"? Do they really think that will stand up in court? Are they willing to have that on their consciences? Are hunters willing to compensate victims of their not-very-important-in-the-grand-scheme-of-things "hobby"?
For the love of God, commissioners, stop this madness! Have the courage to do the right thing.
Paul Thompson

Now that person might be telling BlatantLies to get out of doing that thing, but it might be the truth. Other characters are likely not going to press that character about it.Comes up a lot with someone RaisedCatholic, GoodGirlsAvoidAbortion in particular. Of course, in RealLife, many practices considered common by the majority may be expressly forbidden to people of a particular religious group.In case of extrovert SeriousBusiness, see instead WindmillCrusader, SoulsavingCrusader, HeteronormativeCrusader, MoralGuardians and/or ActivistFundamentalistAntics. See also CultureJustifiesAnything.----!!Examples[[foldercontrol]][[folder:Anime & Manga]]* In the English dub of the eighteenth episode of ''Manga/InuYasha'', Miroku uses this excuse to try to get out of having to face a demon. Obviously [[BlatantLies a lie]], since Miroku is a Buddhist monk whose ''job'' involves exorcising demons.-->'''Miroku:''' If the demon is truly big, then we are no match for it. It's irrational. It's impossible. It's against my religion.\\'''Inu-Yasha:''' You oughtta be arrested.* In season two of ''Manga/BlackLagoon'', two bounty hunters are shown drinking milk at a bar. When asked why, one replies that drinking alcohol is against his religion. The other just doesn't like the taste of it.* In ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'', the very religious Hidan of the Akatsuki refers to this quite often. According to his cult-religion of Jashinism, it is a sin to leave a foe/enemy/victim alive; they must be defeated and slaughtered in the most painful, blood-gushingest way possible. Hidan also calls on Kakuzu when they have to break into a temple, saying that it goes against his beliefs (probably because [[EvenEvilHasStandards even if someone is crazy like him, you still don't invade or desecrate other peoples' houses of worship]]). And he also has a problem with Kakuzu's covetousness of money, because greed is probably also a misdemeanor to Jashin. [[/folder]][[folder:Comics]]* In Franchise/TheDCU, a member of the [[Franchise/GreenLantern Green Lantern Corps]] took a vow to never leave her planet as part of her religion. Forced to go against this vow during the Sinestro War, she's since returned to her planet and refuses to leave no matter what. Her church, however, has yet to welcome her back. Her sector partner is an atheist and has petitioned many times for a new partner.* Subverted in ''TwistedToyfareTheater''. The Thing finds out that he is [[AmbiguouslyJewish Jewish]] by claiming that he cannot work on the Sabbath. Mr. Fantastic checks with his parents to find out that he actually ''is'' Jewish.* In ''The Magazine/{{MAD}} Book of Revenge'', a student gets exempted from a surprise quiz by claiming it's "[[YiddishAsASecondLanguage Simchas]] Stinkola", a religious holiday on which he's prohibited to write.* In ''ComicBook/DemonKnights'', the Muslim scientist Al-Jabr is sent to Hell thanks to yet another of Etrigan's betrayals. His version of Hell is a vast desert with a blazing sun, and the only thing available to quench his thirst is a canteen full of alcohol... which is, of course, against his religion.** Since alcohol can make you thirstier, he's possibly better off without drinking it anyways. However, the demon in question also implies that any water he might come across could magically be transformed into alcohol when he drinks it, which leads to Al-Jabr refusing to drink anything at all while he's in the confines of Hell, even after his tormentor is apparently no longer paying attention to him. It's possible the demon specifically chose this as a double-edged torment of both the body and the mind for Al-Jabr, being already aware of his faith.[[/folder]][[folder:Fan Works]]* Various people in ''UndocumentedFeatures'' claim that their religion requires them to carry weapons.-->"First United Freespacer Church", Mac said quietly. "We have a moral aversion to getting killed."* In ''WebVideo/PokemonTheAbridgedSeries'', Pikachu refuses to go to the Poké Ball because of this.[[/folder]][[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]* ''Film/RobinHoodPrinceOfThieves'' featured Azeem, a Muslim who is forbidden by his faith from drinking alcohol. Friar Tuck doesn't have this limitation.-->'''Friar Tuck:''' Let us open a bottle and do our best to save each other's souls.\\'''Azeem:''' Alas, I am not permitted.\\'''Friar Tuck:''' Fine then, you talk, I'll drink.* Similarly in ''Film/PitchBlack'' Imam refuses to drink liquor for the same reason, even though its the only thing drinkable for the moment. This is not well researched regarding Islam. Imam's position in the film is dire. Plus, he has two children to look after. He was stuck on a desert planet with no other food or water -- in Islam, if the situation is dire enough to threaten one's life by lack of halal food and clean (no alcohol) drinks, Muslims are permitted to consume any available meat (meat of a lizard, meat of a dog or pig) or drink alcohol. Just to survive until help comes.* Lydia in ''Film/{{Beetlejuice}}'' only gets a C on a science test since she refuses to dissect a frog, citing this reason.* ''Film/TheBigLebowski'' has Jewish convert Walter, who initially refuses to drive to meet The Dude on Friday night because of the sabbath. The Dude reminds him that he was raised Polish Catholic and that he only converted to Judaism for his ex-wife, and Walter's a bit peeved by the implication that he should abandon his religion just because his wife left him.* Played with in ''[[ReturnOfTheJedi Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi]]''. C-3PO is mistaken by the Ewoks as one of their gods, so Han asks him to order the Ewoks to let them go. Threepio responds "It's against my programming to impersonate a deity." Later on, though, he ''does'' order the Ewoks to let them go, but they don't care... until Luke helps by using the Force to make Threepio "display" godly powers.* ''Film/{{Matewan}}'': The Hutterite conscientious objectors Kenehan met in Fort Leavenworth military prison were imprisoned there because they were religious pacifists who refused to fight, and then tore the buttons off the prison uniforms they were made to wear, since these were also forbidden to them, causing [[ColdBloodedTorture brutal punishment]] from the guards. * In ''Film/TwelveTwelveTwelve'', the parents try to refuse a Caesarean on the grounds that it's against their religion, but are overruled by the doctors.[[/folder]][[folder:Jokes and Humor]]* A lot of Jewish humor from the Main/BorschtBelt period relies on this joke, as Judaism is a religion with a lot of seemingly-pointless prohibitions.** One well-known joke: A Catholic priest is making fun of a rabbi. The priest holds up some bacon and jokingly asks the rabbi, "Rabbi, do you want some bacon?" The rabbi politely says, "Sorry, but it's against my religion." The priest says, "Are you sure? That's a shame. It's delicious!" The rabbi turns to him and asks, "Father, my regards to your wife!" The priest, stunned, says, "But... but... I'm not married! I can't get married! I'm a priest!" The rabbi smirks and says, "Are you sure? That's a shame. It's delicious!"** Another joke: A rabbi is walking around the yeshiva (or Jewish religious school) one Sabbath, when he sees three students sitting in a room with the windows open, playing poker for money! The rabbi is outraged, since you aren't allowed to touch money on the Sabbath, and storms in. He turns to the eldest student, demanding an explanation. He says, "I'm sorry, Rabbi! I forgot that you aren't allowed to touch money on the Sabbath!" The rabbi turns to the middle student. He says, "I'm sorry, Rabbi! I forgot that it was the Sabbath today!" The rabbi is finding these excuses hard to believe, seeing as the eldest student had been studying at the yeshiva for years, and the middle student was at Shabbat services that morning. He turns to the youngest student and sarcastically says, "I imagine you forgot something as well." The student mutters, "I forgot to close the windows."[[/folder]][[folder:Literature]]* In the ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' book ''Discworld/ThiefOfTime'', the Auditors are disguised as humans, and avoid being forced to drink tea (where things like eating are harmful to them [it's a long story]) with this trope. The Auditors have noted that people will justify the most extreme behavior on the same basis, so by comparison refusing to drink tea shouldn't raise any eyebrows.** Moist von Lipwig uses it in ''Discworld/GoingPostal'' to avoid getting his picture taken, out of fear his un-memorable appearance, and through it the secret of his criminal past, won't survive a picture. ''Discworld/MakingMoney'' proves him right.** In the ''Assassins' Guild Yearbook'', a long list of [[LoopholeAbuse loophole]]-filling rules to prevent ''any'' attempt by students to have a pet crocodile is eventually forced to concede that none of these rules apply to worshipers of Offler the Crocodile God. Then they add a rule that any student claiming Offlerism will be quizzed on the subject, because religion is not a joking matter. ''Then'' they have to acknowledge that, to worshippers of Nog-Humpty the Custard God, it ''is'' a joking matter.** Subverted with Mr. Dorfl. Normally golems like him take one day off a month because it is a "holy day", although they work 24/8 all other times. After gaining his freedom, Dorfl becomes an atheist and gives up this practice because he has decided that "either all days are holy or none are".* This shows up in some of the ''Franchise/StarTrek'' novels.** In ''Literature/HowMuchForJustThePlanet'' by Creator/JohnMFord, we have [=McCoy=] explaining why he, Sulu, and two Klingons won't KneelBeforeZod (the evil queen Janeka):--->'''[=McCoy=]:''' You see, ma'am, these two gentlemen already have a dictator, it's against Mr. Sulu's religion... and I'm a Democrat.** In ''Spock - Messiah!'' by Theodore R. Cogswell and Charles A. Spano, Jr., the landing party are offered some very suspicious-looking stew which they turn down with the claim that they are religiously forbidden to eat meat on whatever day it currently is.* In ''IslandInTheSeaOfTime'', one of the protagonists won't prostrate himself before the ruler of Mesopotamia because "it is against our custom, and the law of our god." Possibly a ShoutOut to the Book of Daniel -- the speaker is Jewish.* In ''{{Everworld}},'' April, whose Catholicism is regularly mentioned, refuses to make a sacrifice to the {{Physical God}}s of [[FantasyCounterpartCulture Everworld-Africa]]. In an interesting twist, atheist Jalil joins her protest on the same logic. (Eventually, David and Christopher side with them, though more on the grounds of "screw these guys trying to tell us what to do" than anything.) [[TokenEvilTeammate Senna]] is [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech disgusted]] by all of them, but more because they are putting HonorBeforeReason than anything. (She, after all, [[AGodAmI wants to]] ''[[AGodAmI replace]]'' [[AGodAmI the gods]].)* ''Literature/ASeriesOfUnfortunateEvents'': In the fifth book, Count Olaf disguises himself as the turban wearing "Coach Genghis" and claims he cannot remove his turban because of his religion. Of course, it's really to cover his single eyebrow, which is one of his identifying features.* The SidneySheldon novel ''Nothing Lasts Forever'' has a Jehovah's Witness refusing to sign a consent form for his son to have surgery or receive a blood transfusion and the doctor in question forging his signature to go ahead. Once again, this distorts the truth--people can refuse for themselves but not their children, which means that the doctor could have found a legal means to sidestep his objections. Additionally, while Jehovah's Witnesses will refuse to receive transfusions and transplants, they are not opposed to receiving medical care, meaning that the man would probably have consented to the surgery even if adamant that his son not receive blood.* In ''AWolfInTheSoul'', Aram convinces Greg to eat a pepperoni pizza, defeating his objections by pointing out that Greg doesn't follow any of the ''other'' precepts of Judaism.* The IanMcEwan novel ''The Children Act'' is about a judge who is trying to decide whether a boy with leukaemia should be forced to undergo a blood transfusion which is necessary to save his life, but which he is refusing: he's a Jehovah's Witness, and it's against his religion.[[/folder]][[folder:Live-Action TV]]* In ''TheThinBlueLine'', someone gets sick in Fowler's hat, and Fowler absentmindedly puts it on. When his superior shows up and want to know why Fowler isn't taking his hat off in respect, he claims to be a Sihk who is forbidden to bare his head.* The PoliceProcedural nowadays often run into various religious groups who want to have a non-cut-up-body for burial. Depending on the religion and which {{Anvilicious}} AuthorTract the writer wants to give this time, results will vary.** In RealLife, medical examiners promise to do a "minimally invasive" autopsy in murder cases -- which means of course that they do a complete and full autopsy, only making sure that fluids aren't spilled. This is understood not just by [=MEs=] but also by rabbis, since letting a murderer get away with a crime is always considered more of a problem than a respectful autopsy.** A variant appears in ''Series/LawAndOrderSpecialVictimsUnit''. A suspect in a number of rape/murders claims he's a Jehovah's Witness, and so the court cannot compel him to give blood for a DNA sample. This is circumvented when a brother of one of the victims attacks him, and he bites the brother during the fight. The saliva on the bite was "given voluntarily", so it can be legally used for the sample.*** This is HollywoodLaw, actually-suspects have blood samples taken under court order routinely, and objecting "against my religion" is not going to stop it. Contrast that with Jehovah's Witnesses refusing blood ''transfusions'', which ''has'' occurred and is legally their right, despite the objection of emergency medical staff. * Speaking of ''Franchise/LawAndOrder'', it and several other legal dramas have trotted out episodes featuring parents being charged with murder for refusing to seek medical attention for their ill child, with their defense being that doing so violates the tenets of their religion.* Medical dramas like this one too.* The Mormon candidate for fellowship on ''Series/{{House}}'' cited this as a reason not to drink alcohol for an unusual diagnosis procedure,[[note]]A liver stress test, if you must know[[/note]] but House convinced him it was necessary and he did it anyway.* In ''KeepingUpAppearances'', (something happens or is said) prompting Onslow to state that having breakfast (in bed?) isn't against his religion. When asked what is, his wife jokes, "Getting (up? out of bed?) before (insert time here)!"* ''Series/{{Oz}}''. Muslim prisoner Imam Kareem Said rejects SmugSnake Governor Devlin's politically-motivated pardon offer on live television by saying: "According to my religion, there are some things I am not allowed to swallow!"* ''Series/BabylonFive'':** One episode from the first season involved Franklin trying to save a boy with a surgical procedure that's against his species' religion, over his parents' refusal. [[spoiler:They are entirely sincere in their beliefs, and when Franklin goes behind their back to perform the surgery, they kill their son, sincerely believing the surgery robbed him of his soul. This is likely a more extreme [[FantasyCounterpartCulture counterpart]] to the RealLife Jehovah's Witnesses' refusal of blood transfusions.]]** In more lighthearted examples, Ivonova ends up having a discussion with her family rabbi about whether or not an alien dish called treel is kosher (eventual ruling: It's not mentioned by name in the Bible, so it's probably OK). Ivonova herself does not appear to keep kosher, seeing as her only objection to Marcus using his contacts in the Rangers to provide her with bacon and eggs (foods which are apparently hard to get on space stations) was that Sheridan and Garibaldi spent that breakfast staring at her plate and drooling.* ''Series/RumpoleOfTheBailey'': Rumpole claims to have a rather peculiar religion, which forbids, among other things, pleading guilty (unless he knows for a fact that the client actually committed the crime, and even then he'll only usually plead if [[PleaBargain the judge is sympathetic and he'll get a sentence with no jail time]]) and (more importantly) prosecuting. ([[DontExplainTheJoke The religion's a joke, of course, but the self-imposed prohibitions are real]].)* Toofer, Frank and Lutz from ''Series/ThirtyRock'' get out of Kenneth's confusing and boring Secret Santa project by pretending to be part of the religion of Verdukianism.** Kenneth himself is a parody of conservative Christians, so when asked what political party he supports he replies that choosing is a sin, so he just writes the Lord's name on the ballot.-->'''Jack:''' That's Republican! We count those!* Barney on ''Series/HowIMetYourMother'' made the claim that "Discouraging premarital sex is against [his] religion."* On the re-imagined ''[[Series/BattlestarGalacticaReimagined Battlestar Galactica]]'', many of the Saggitarons refuse to accept any medical treatment because it goes against their religion. For bonus RuleOfDrama points, this is only ever brought up in the very episode where [[TooDumbToLive they all become infected with a deadly disease]] ("The Woman King"). [[spoiler: It turns out they were deliberately injected with it by the doctor in charge of treating this group of refugees; he felt they didn't deserve medicine because of the rejection (supplies being low at the moment) and that he was freeing up room for others to live, causing their objections and suspicions that he meant them harm -in this case-to be ProperlyParanoid]]. * In ''TheNanny'', Fran comes up with fake Jewish holidays to get out of work, and she says she did that in school as well.* ''Series/{{JAG}}'': In the season nine episode "Posse Comitatus", Bud investigates a Navy reservist physician who suddenly claims conscientious objector status when called on to serve in Iraq because he became a Quaker. When Bud informs him that after separation his medical practice would at the same time also lose the military health plan affiliation, he backs down. * On ''Series/{{Borgen}}'', after [[spoiler:successfully pulling off the peace treaty in Africa]], Bent and Amir celebrate modestly with a bottle of fine brandy:-->'''Bent:''' Does your god allow you to drink it?-->'''Amir:''' [[SubvertedTrope Depends how good the brandy is.]]* The ''Franchise/{{Emergency}}'' episode, "How Green Was My Thumb," Dr. Brackett is treating a young injured girl who was also bitten by a rabid dog. When her very religious parents object to having her vaccinated, Dr. Brackett is able to summon the hospital chaplain who manages to convince them to cooperate with some sage words and biblical passages.[[/folder]][[folder:Newspaper Comics]]* One ''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes'' strip has Calvin jotting down in his quiz that he couldn't answer a question because it's against his religion (see the page pic).** He's also a "math atheist" and refuses to do his homework because he cannot accept "on faith" that combining 2 and 2 makes 4 -- and in the public schools, no less.* [[http://www.dilbert.com/strips/comic/2000-12-07/ This]] ''ComicStrip/{{Dilbert}}'' comic.** Another ''ComicStrip/{{Dilbert}}'' strip has Dilbert's co-worker refusing to go out with him over religious differences. When Dilbert offers to change his religion, he discovers that there is an entire religion based on 'not dating Dilbert'.-->'''Dogbert:''' Where do you think I go every Sunday?* ''ComicStrip/GetFuzzy'' has a recurring joke where Bucky Katt uses this excuse. His owner then asks what Bucky's religion ''is''. No points for guessing why Bucky won't tell him...* In one ''ComicStrip/KnightsOfTheDinnerTable'' story, Bob and Dave declare that their characters are disguising themselves as priests of a local temple so they can sneak in and rob it. In response to a suspicious guard's questions: [[FridgeLogic "I tell him]] [[BlatantLies I've taken a vow of silence"]].* One of the story arcs in ''ComicStrip/NonSequitur'' was about Danae creating her own religion to prevent anybody from making her do anything she didn't want to do.[[/folder]][[folder:Theater]]* Near the end of ''ATunaChristmas'', Bertha attempts (unsuccessfully) to avoid drinking this way. [[SubvertedTrope Humorously, Arles then starts talking about how he used to lie about his religion so that he could drink.]]-->'''[=Arles=]:''' One time we raised so much hell in Houston I claimed to be an Episcopalian!\\'''[=Bertha=]:''' What was that like?\\'''[=Arles=]:''' I don't remember. By the time I came to I was back in Tuna feeling like a Baptist again![[/folder]][[folder:Web Comics]]* In ''{{Nodwick}}'', quick-thinking on Artax's part when he answers this while [[http://nodwick.humor.gamespy.com/gamespyarchive/index.php?date=2004-03-04 "disguised" as a mind flayer]] and asked by a true Illithid why he's isn't communicating telepathically.-->'''Artax:''' Oh, that. I'm a member of a new religious order, and we took vows of '''synaptic silence'''.* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius''. [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20091026 Today is the feast of St. Bungi: my religion forbids vertical travel today!]]* In ''SomethingPositive,'' Mike [[RaisedCatholic cites this]] as his reason for him and Tamara having sex without birth control ([[LawOfInverseFertility resulting in her pregnancy]]). [=PeeJee=] immediately [[http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp03032006.shtml calls him out on this]]:-->'''[=PeeJee=]:''' Isn't premarital sex a sin too?\\'''Mike:''' Yes, [[ComicallyMissingThePoint but that sin feels a lot better without the presence of the other sin]].[[/folder]][[folder:Web Original]]* In ''[[Website/BecomingABetterWriter The Ongoing Adventures of Ulysses Perhero]]'' a man tries to avoid giving Ulysses information this way; [[http://twitter.com/Ulysses_Perhero/status/1735664791 it doesn't go well]]* [[Blog/ThingsMrWelchIsNoLongerAllowedToDoInAnRPG Mr. Welch]] has been told with absolute certainty that Druids are ''not'' against his religion.* In the 2009 Christmas Special of ''Machinima/RedVsBlue'', Grif claims to have joined every single religion in the world. That way, he can refuse to do anything, since, according to him, every day of the week is at least one religion's holy day of rest (except for Monday, curiously).* In one ''WebAnimation/TeenGirlSquad'' episode, Cheerleader claims that sweating is against ''several'' of her religions.[[/folder]][[folder:Western Animation]]* In the ''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButthead'' episode "Dumb Design", the boys use this excuse first to get out of learning evolution, and later to get out of math and P.E. class.* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'', Bender tries to get out of doing work by pretending robot holidays such as "Robonukkah" prevent him from working.** Hermes mentions that the Planet Express corporation respects Bender's religious freedom to the extent the law requires, but he'd already spent all his allotted days off for Robamadan and Robanzaa.* Hadji spouts this excuse to the alligators that are attacking him in the ''WesternAnimation/JonnyQuestTheRealAdventures'' episode "Alligators and Okeechobee Vikings":--> '''Hadji:''' Get back! It's against my religion to be eaten by reptiles!* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Undergrads}}'', Cody, a [[TheSlacker slacker]], is unhappy that he has an exam on a Saturday.-->'''Cody:''' Oh man, I can't believe I have to take an exam on... Shhh...abbat.\\'''Jessie:''' Cody... you're not Jewish.\\'''Cody:''' That's not the point!* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/RogerRamjet'' has Roger coming to the aid of a stand-up comic. Roger is about to deliver a smackdown to Noodles Romanoff and his gang, and the stand-up comic says he'd like to join Roger but it's against his religion: he's a devout coward.* On ''TheClevelandShow'' Roberta temporarily breaks up with her boyfriend Federline because he won't get a tattoo for her. Apparently he's already bought his plot in a Jewish cemetery.[[note]]In RealLife people with tattoos actually can be buried in a Jewish cemetery, but the myth is so widespread that even many Jews don't realize this.[[/note]][[/folder]][[folder:Real Life]]* For many, this excuse is abused where something technically is against their religion, but they wouldn't be following that stricture (every religion has a few rules that only the real diehards pay attention to) if they didn't dislike the thing anyway.** Example: A Muslim, Buddhist, Baptist, or what-have-you who has in fact had a drink before and didn't like it might use "it's against my religion to drink" to avoid drinking in social settings, although they hadn't had any compunctions about it before. Granted, someone pushing drinks on everyone else at the party is more likely to leave you alone if you're refraining for religious reasons.* Conscientious Objectors will do this in RealLife as their reasons not to fight in wars.** Not ALL of them (there are non-religious pacifists) but the ones claiming religious reasons get their status accepted more easily.** It doesn't necessarily stop them from going to war either. Some of the most heroic ''medics'' in history have been conscientious objectors.** Alvin York, probably the most famous American World War I war hero, was himself a conscientous objector.** In Australia, Nat Young tried to register surfing as a religion, in part so that he and other surfers could cite religious objections to avoid serving in UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar.* Religiously motivated pacifism in general: Martin Luther King Jr. and Gandhi both saw violence against their oppressors as immoral for religious reasons, even in retaliation.* Jack Thompson used this excuse during his disbarment proceedings. The judges didn't fall for it.* There's a story in which a couple of Muslim diplomats met with Vlad Tepes (Yes, [[{{Dracula}} that one]]), refusing to remove their turbans as they were only required to for the Sultan. Vlad was a vassal of the Sultan by force, so this was a TakeThat, basically stating "Even though you are the most powerful man in the land we are currently in, you are lowly and deserve none of our respect." Unfortunately for the two of them, due to trying to pull a country with a nonexistent economy to a standing position, the constant threat of war from the Ottoman Empire, the raiding of border towns by Hungary, a staggeringly high crime rate, and the intrigues and plots from unwilling boyars and their crazy family clans, Vlad understandably had a bit of a BerserkButton when it came to respect.** So naturally [[DisproportionateRetribution he had their turbans nailed to their heads.]]* Any Discordian can claim ANYTHING is against their religion, by virtue of being a Pope. Unfortunately, since everyone is also a Pope, you'll be promptly excommunicated.** The entire church (a.k.a. human race) was excommunicated within the first few days of the religion.** Fortunately, they can all de-excommunicate themselves. Unless that would be against their religion.* It is generally known that observant Jews may not eat pork, rabbit, shellfish, etc. What is less well known is that ''very'' observant Jews may not wear garments made from wool and linen because of a Biblical prohibition against it. And those who adhere very strictly to the dietary laws cannot eat anything made in a non-kosher kitchen (which means, among other things, entirely separate sets of cookware, dinnerware, and sinks for meat and for dairy).* Members of the LDS Church ([[UsefulNotes/{{Mormonism}} Mormons]]) are famous for refraining from smoking and drinking alcohol, coffee, tea, and sometimes even caffeine of any kind. This is often used in media to mark a character as a Mormon. This comes from a piece of Mormon scripture popularly called the "Word of Wisdom", which also advises to use meat sparingly and the consumption of fruits, herbs, and grains. It is considered important enough that following it is a prerequisite for membership and for participation in several programs.* Jehovah's Witnesses refusal to accept blood transfusions gains occasional notoriety and provides fuel for {{Medical Drama}}s.** They also do not celebrate birthdays--or any other holiday--nor do they pledge allegiance.* After becoming a born-again Christian, ShawnMichaels would tread carefully when he was part of the WWE's more risque skits. Sometimes they would have fun with this... TripleH blindfolding him before bringing out cheerleaders, being distracted away from girls, reluctantly going through the women's locker room and EricBischoff mocking his refusal to do stuff like Katie Vick as against his religion.* Kirk Cameron displayed similar behavior while working on ''GrowingPains''. Unfortunately, he ultimately came off like a sanctimonious {{Jerkass}}--demanding that producers fire an actress who had posed in ''Playboy'', refusing to play ''anything'' that implied that his character and his girlfriend were having premarital sex, and outright calling the showrunners "pornographers" due to his objections over the things that they were writing.* Most Muslims are excused from social dance lessons in schools on the grounds that one should not get that close to a member of the opposite sex with whom you are not betrothed.* Hindus famously do not eat beef. Some of them are total vegetarians.** There are also some extremely devout Hindu who don't do cow's milk or dairy for the same reason. This isn't quite as common as refusing beef, through, as milk, yogurt, and butter--particularly the clarified butter known as ghee--are pillars of Indian cuisine and (more to the point) are actually used in Hindu festivals (for instance, the oil in the lamps of Diwali is traditionally ghee).* U.S. employment discrimination law [[http://www.eeoc.gov/policy/docs/qanda_religion.html more or less requires]] an employer to believe (or at least act like they believe) an employee who says something is against his or her religion. Even if the employer has never heard of the prohibition. Even if the employer has never heard of the religion. [[note]]The employer is not necessarily required to care; they just can't question it without a specific reason for doubt[[/note]]* Inverted in the case of many atheists and agnostics, who may refuse to do something like say the words "under God" in the American pledge of allegiance - not because it's against their religion, as they may not have any, but because they feel it is a part of someone else's.* In most schools in the United States, there are mandatory sex education classes. All are required to allow a student to decline them on religious grounds and spend the time in an alternative activity.* A man in Austria won the right to wear a spaghetti strainer on his head in his drivers licence photo because of his [[FlyingSpaghettiMonster religious beliefs.]]** The person is known as Niko Alm and this was more of a publicity stunt. He protested against the "privilege" of Religious people to get their photos taken with various forms of headgear. He got this allowed in the end, because the spaghetti strainer didn't obstruct his face and not based on his belief.* [[LoopholeAbuse Commonly attempted]] by younger kids during Lent, the Christian preparation for Easter, as the tradition is to give something up so you suffer some. Some try to give up vegetables, homework, or school.* Seventh-day Adventists are known for abstaining from secular activities on the Sabbath (i.e. from sunset Friday to sunset Saturday) according to the instruction given in the fourth of the Ten Commandments in Exodus 20 (specifically, verses 8-11) and the description of the transition of days from sunset to sunset in Genesis 1. Many also abstain from meat and alcoholic drinks due to this trope; SDA members who do eat meat refrain from eating meats listed as forbidden in Leviticus 11 (particularly pork or pork-made products).* Scambaiters, people who try to get FourOneNineScam emails and fool the scammer into thinking he's got a victim, like to use this trope to get the scammer to embarrass himself. Generally, the baiter will claim that sending the requested money to someone outside their religion is forbidden and that the scammer will have to join to get the money. Cue the scammer doing all sorts of embarrassing stuff to join the church, ranging from [[http://www.419eater.com/html/davids_harp.htm getting photographed with bread on their head and a bottle of wine in their ear]] to [[http://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=228178 getting a clown tattoo]] from ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce''.* In the US, some pharmacists will give this as a reason for refusing to fill out women's birth control prescriptions. However, most will direct them to one without such beliefs.* As well, pretty much every contemporary major religion has prohibitions against pre-marital sex. Many virgins (or [[CatholicSchoolGirlsRule not so much]]) use this as a reason for [[ChastityCouple waiting until marriage]].* Some religions prohibit its members from drinking alcohol. Someone who does not belong to this religion, but feels like their peers will not take just a no for an answer may use this as an excuse. People who have other excuses, such as former alcoholism or alcoholism running in their family may use this excuse, as they feel the truth would reflect badly upon themselves* There are several faiths that oppose vaccination (Christian Science probably being the most famous); in nearly all US states, one can get a religious exemption from mandatory vaccination laws (the standards of proof vary). Another 17 states allow philosophical exemptions, which is the same thing but expanded beyond religion. [[/folder]]----

Periodontal is a word meaning "around the tooth." Periodontal disease is a condition in which the tissue (gums, deeper supporting tissue, and bone) around a tooth or teeth become infected and inflamed. Periodontal disease includes both gingivitis and periodontitis.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Periodontal disease is caused by an overgrowth of the bacteria that live naturally in the mouth. These bacteria are responsible for the sticky white substance that develops on teeth called plaque. When plaque stays on a tooth long enough, it hardens into a solid material called calculus or tartar. This material is much more difficult to remove from teeth than plaque. Over time, the presence of calculus causes gum inflammation or gingivitis. Gingivitis is a more mild form of periodontal disease, affecting the gums. It is almost always reversible with appropriate treatment.
If gingivitis is not halted through careful treatment, then the inflammation may spread below the gum line, affecting the deeper tissues and bone that surround and support the teeth. This condition is known as periodontitis. Untreated periodontitis can destroy the bone and other supporting tissues, resulting in eventual tooth loss.
Many cases of periodontitis begin with gingivitis. However, it is possible for the deeper infection of periodontitis to begin without the more superficial gingivitis having been noticed.
Periodontal disease is a serious condition that needs to be thoroughly and carefully treated by your dentist. A variety of studies suggest the possibility of an association between periodontal disease and:
The chance of developing periodontitis increases with age. Approximately 8.5% of people aged 20-64 have periodontal disease, and 5% of adults aged 20-64 have moderate-to-severe periodontal disease. Seventeen percent of people aged 65 and older have the condition. Unfortunately, studies suggest that only a fraction of people with periodontitis are aware that they have the condition and are receiving treatment.

I read this story back in June during his first arrest and I'm reading this here again, and i"ll tell you one thing, anyone who was closely associated with this guy had to have suspected something was going on.
[Portion removed. Please don't use Town Square to speculate on the knowledge or involvement of people who have not been charged.]
It's a shame this kind of activity happens right in front of our noses, under the roof of business in Sharon Heights, it really shows you what kind of people you are really dealing with. Hopefully the authorities can flush out the bad element. This is a sad day for Sharon Heights.

Hmmm is a registered user.
Mr. Hill - this story shows it can happen anywhere. Many legit seeming businesses have very shady dealings.
When I was in college, I socialized a lot w/bodybuilders who were friends of my fiance. They all used steroids. One was a former pro football player. I found out about the steroids around the same time I found out the one we were closest to was also dealing cocaine. He was a local legend - a minor entertainment figure as well as bodybuilder. I ended my friendship w/all of these people & my fiance became distant w/them as well. I must say, along the way, I had the opportunity to do something about what I knew & I did. I've never regretted it, either.
This story does make me wonder what those close to him really knew or suspected. Yeah, right - supplements!

A 34-year-old Clearwater man lost control of his SUV and drove in reverse through a neighborhood before crashing into a home Friday evening, police said.
Michael Richardson was traveling west on Bellrose Drive North in a 2000 Honda Passport just after 6 p.m. when he lost control and crashed into a house at 1650 Bellrose Drive North, said Elizabeth Watts, spokeswoman for the Clearwater police.
Richardson then put the SUV in reverse and drove across the home's driveway and lawn while traveling east on Bellrose Drive, Watts said. He lost control again and drove over the south curb into yards and a mailbox at 1657 Bellrose Drive North, Watts said.
Richardson continued driving in reverse and crossed over the north curb over another lawn in into a concrete planter at 1668 Bellrose Drive North, Watts said. The SUV finally came to rest after crashing through an unoccupied bedroom at the home, Watts said.
Richardson was taken to a hospital with what were described as non life-threatening injuries, Watts said.
Police estimate the damage at $15,200.
Police continue to investigate.
