Then again, I used to be a good Christian girl, the kind who would never, well… Just goes to show how little people know. Even I was surprised by me. Now, I close my eyes hoping to see exactly where I went wrong. Mary Rudine, called Mister by almost everyone, has attended church and sung in the choir for as long as she can remember.

So when an angel appears one night and tells her that she—a virgin—will give birth, Mary can't help but feel confused, and soon finds herself struggling with the greatest blessing the world will ever know. Feeling abandoned, Mister is drawn to Mary's story, and together both young women discover the depth of God's love and the mysteries of his divine plan.

Nuggets 104, Hawks 88
Denver's bench is giving the Nuggets' starting five a push for playing time. At this rate, the reserves might be just as good as the starters.
This time, it was Corey Brewer scoring 22 points and being, as his coach said, ''a pest defensively,'' and Wilson Chandler chipping in 13 points in the Nuggets' 104-88 win over the depleted Atlanta Hawks on Monday night.
Starter Ty Lawson had 18 points and Kenneth Faried had another double-double with 10 points and 13 rebounds, but it was Denver's bench - which outscored Oklahoma City's reserves by 60 points in their last game - that provided the effort and energy that helped the Nuggets finally shake the Hawks.
Behind their reserves' 50-point night, the Nuggets won their 11th straight game at the Pepsi Center and matched Miami's NBA-best 26-3 home record.
''It's the energy, the altitude, but we're also jelling as a team,'' Brewer said. ''We're starting to play together and we know each other a little bit.''
With Chandler and Brewer providing the scoring off the bench, JaVale McGee chipped in some more amazing dunks to go with five electrifying blocked shots and Andre Miller dished out nine assists.
''It's been great,'' Chandler said. ''We've got a chemistry going. We're pretty much going in at the same time, we just go out there and play hard. Andre and JaVale hook up for a few lobs and JaVale's on the boards blocking. Andre's orchestrating the whole deal and Corey's running around on defense, fast breaks.''
The crowd feeds off Denver's bench players and ''they're probably one of the forces that helps us win most of our games at home,'' Lawson said.
At .896, the Nuggets are in position to post their best home winning percentage in franchise history. They went 36-5 for an .878 home winning percentage in 1976-77, their first season in the NBA.
''Well, that's reachable,'' Nuggets coach George Karl said.
For most of three quarters, however, the latest home blowout wasn't the cakewalk many in the crowd expected against a banged-up, tired team playing the final game of a six-game trip.
Eventually, the Hawks ran out of gas and bodies, though.
Al Horford scored 18 points for Atlanta, and Josh Smith chipped in 15 points, becoming the 24th player in league history to collect 10,000 points, 5,000 rebounds, 2,000 assists and 1,000 blocks. His milestone came on a night when many of his teammates were spectators as the Hawks were without Kyle Korver (toe), Zaza Pachulia (sore right Achilles) and DeShawn Stevenson, who skipped the second game of this back-to-back like he normally does because of balky knees.
Then, Jeff Teague (15 points) sprained his left ankle in the first quarter and Ivan Johnson dislocated his left middle finger in the second quarter. Both returned.
Horford's jumper pulled the Hawks to 63-61 before Lawson hit two free throws and a 26-foot 3-pointer followed by Chandler's bucket that made it 70-61 and forced a timeout in the third quarter.
''We didn't have all the guys who impact the game so much,'' Smith said. ''In the fourth quarter, they were able to string some makes together. They're a fast-breaking team and as soon as a shot's missed it seems like there are already two guys already back for a layup.''
Fatigue finally kicked in during the fourth quarter when three straight baskets by Brewer capped a 10-2 run Denver used to build a 96-79 lead.
''I wish it would have kicked in a little earlier, but it did kick in and that was good,'' Karl said. ''They've been on a long trip. And the third quarter, we looked like we were going to break it open a little bit and they would always cut back into us and finally the last five minutes we got away from them.''
The Hawks won the first three games of the trip but lost the last three.
''Tired both physically and mentally,'' Hawks coach Larry Drew lamented. ''It's been a long road trip. Fatigue does factor into at this point.''
That was most evident on the fastbreak, where the Nuggets outscored the Hawks 29-13.
''It was a tough,'' Horford said, ''but I was proud of the guys who dressed up and played. It's a long season, you deal with injuries, and guys came out and fought. We hung around, but it was very overwhelming. They were good in the fast break.''
Notes: Drew said Korver strained his right big toe in Atlanta's 99-98 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. He stayed in the game, but soreness set in afterward. ... Anthony Tolliver started for Stevenson and Dahntay Jones started for Korver, who leads the NBA with a .462 shooting percentage on 3-pointers. ... The Nuggets have won eight of their last nine home games against Atlanta, including the last six.

NEPAD: New Colonialism in Africaby 09.01.2004 22:03 -Africa Faces New Threat of New Colonialism
no.10 on project censored list 2004: The Top 25 Censored Media Stories of 2002-2003
http://www.projectcensored.org/publications/2004/10.html Source: Left Turn, July/August, 2002 Title: "NEPAD: Repackaging Colonialism in Africa" Author: Michelle Robidoux Evaluator: Heidi LaMoreaux Briarpatch, Vol. 32, No. 1, Excerpted from The CCPA Monitor, October 2002 Title: "Ravaging Africa" Author: Asad Ismi Faculty evaluators: Heidi LaMoreaux, Ph.D. Student Researchers: Kathleen Glover, Laura Huntington, Kagiso Molefhe, Dana Balicki Today, Africa is the most war-torn continent in the world. Over the past fifteen years, thirty-two of the fifty-three African countries experienced violent conflict. During the cold war years (1950-1989), the U.S. sent $1.5 billion in arms and training to Africa thus setting the stage for the current round of conflicts. From 1991-1995 the U.S. increased the amount of weapons and other military assistance to fifty of the total fifty-three African countries. Over the years these U.S. funded wars have been responsible for the deaths of millions of Africans, and the subsequent displacement, disease, and starvation of many millions more. In June of 2002, leaders from the eight most powerful countries in the world (the G8) met to form a New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD) as an "anti-poverty" campaign. One glaring omission, however, is the consultation and representation of the African nations. Not one of the eight leaders was from Africa. The danger of the NEPAD proposal is that it fails to protect Africa from exploitation of its resources. NEPAD is akin to Plan Columbia in its attempt to employ Western development techniques to provide economic opportunities for international investment. Welcomed by the G8 nations, this development plan reads like a mad dash to grab up as much of Africa's remaining resources as possible. According to Robert Murphy of the US State Department's Office of African Analysis, Africa is important to "the diversification of our sources of imported oil" away from the Middle East. The U.S. currently gets 15% of its total oil imports from the African continent. By 2015, that figure will be 25%. Rather than a plan to reduce African poverty, NEPAD is a mechanism for ensuring that U.S. and other Western investments are protected. All over Africa activists, trade unionists, and women's organizations are mobilizing against NEPAD. It is clear to them that the "solutions" put forward by NEPAD are in direct contradiction to that which is really needed to deal with the problems faced by Africa today. The objective of NEPAD will be to provide "increased aid to developing countries that embrace the required development model." The harrowing effects of IMF and World Bank debt on the African continent will neither be addressed nor revoked by the new program. Under NEPAD, Africa's natural riches will continue to be bought and sold by the autonomous Western powers-that-be under the namesake of "development" and with the feigned support of the African people. Meanwhile, the food shortage in Africa is now widespread. Dr. Tewolde Behran Gebre Egziabher, General Manager of the Environmental Protection Authority in Ethiopia, explains that drought is not the cause of famine in Africa. Storage and transport are the two big problems. The year before last in Ethiopia, when there was a surplus of food, farmers could not sell their produce (locally or on the foreign market) and thus did not get the capital they needed for future crops. One hundred kilos of maize would sell for as little as $4 and Saudi Arabia wanted to buy this cheap maize. However, by the time the maize got to the port its price would have tripled because transport costs are so high. It was marginally cheaper for Saudi Arabia to instead buy maize that came all the way from the U.S. The U.S. is underselling starving nations and the food shortages are actually exasperated by this practice. Loans provided by the International Monetary Fund, World Bank and G8 have traditionally included strategies known as Structural Adjustment Programs (SAPs) which came in to effect in Africa in 1980. SAPs require that governments reduce public spending (especially on health, education and food/storage) in order to pay Western Banks. They must also increase exports of raw materials to the West, encourage foreign investment and privatize state enterprises. Instead of reducing the debt, since 1980 SAPs have increased African debt by 500 percent, creating a domino effect of disasters (prolonged famine, conflict, abject poverty, environmental exploitation) linked to an estimated 21 million deaths and, in the process, transferring hundreds of billion dollars to the West. Update By Asad Ismi My article shows how Western prosperity is based on the destruction of Africa. The story details the U.S. imperial design for Africa, which involves fostering wars and destroying economies in order to plunder natural riches. The U.S. has created a holocaust in Africa by backing wars and imposing structural adjustment programs, which have allowed it to loot hundreds of billions of dollars from the continent. Since the story was first published in October 2002, 1.5 million more people have died in the Congo War bringing the total up to a shocking four million since 1998. This is a war foisted on the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC - the richest country in Africa) by the U.S. through its proxies Rwanda and Uganda, who have occupied the country, stolen its abundant natural wealth, and sent it to the West. A peace agreement signed in September 2002 in which Rwanda and Uganda agreed to withdraw, is not working since Uganda has reoccupied parts of the eastern Congo and Rwanda keeps raiding the country. Recently, Rwandan troops burnt down thousands of homes in the eastern Congo. Uganda has armed two ethnic groups, the Hema and Lendu in Ituri province and encouraged them to fight resulting in 11,400 deaths so far; the two groups have laid siege to the provincial capital, Bunia, where bloody massacres continue. This shows the extent to which the U.S. will go to plunder Africa.

Update by Michelle Robidoux: What NEPAD shows is that regardless of the actual causes of the hardships facing the world's poorest countries, there is only one prescription on offer by the world's leaders: neo-liberal market-driven measures of privatization and deregulation. The mass protests against NEPAD at the World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg challenged the notion that African civil society is prepared to accept the disastrous policies which have left 40 million Africans at risk of starvation this year.

Report provided by Alex Astua, Director of Enigma-tico.com
This image was captured by a webcam on March 23, 2006 at 14:04 hrs and shows an object near the summit of the Kephren Pyramid. The object is highly reflective and presents a clear structure.
It is difficult to determine if it faces, or is positioned behind, the pyramid.
Despite the fact that the object has a circular shape in the main photo, it has an oblong shape in the image taken 47 seconds earlier.
Possible explanations: balloon, airplane, kite, insect.
If we make a more detailed observation, it appears like a different object.

I put my mad skills, from the classic game "Operation" to test. I successfully dropped the wave washer and rocker arm into the head, magnetized a screw driver, found the wave washer, and spent 15 minutes with a curve pair of needle nose pliers and got the arm between the other rocker and the valve stem. I wouldn't recommend doing it that way.
Now the valve opens the same distance as the other. With that brain fart out of the way, on to the good news!
I started it, and rode the open header beast down the street. Seems to run really strong. It also goes STRAIGHT! I was worried after the mass amounts of custom suspension components. I think it's going to bring plenty of smiles. Now it's time to finish cutting the tail braces for the subframe and take it to my friend at Medusa Fabrications, to build the aluminum tank. Then take it all apart again, for paint and finishing touches.
Smoke in video is from back tire. I was coming in a little hot, towards my truck (camera was on rear bumper).

In the past, the most commonly prescribed medications for sleeping problems included two classes of sedative-hypnotic drugs: the benzodiazepines and the "non-benzodiazepine, benzodiazepine receptor agonists."
In addition to these categories, a new medication (Ramelteon, under the brand name Rozerem) became more widely available in 2006 that aids sleep with a unique mechanism of action.
In This Article:
- Sleep Medications by Prescription
- Non-Benzodiazepine Sleep Aids
- Melatonin Receptor Agonists (Rozerem) for Falling Asleep
- Antidepressants as Sleep Aids
Benzodiazepine Sleep Aids
Although all of the benzodiazepines are used for the treatment of insomnia, the first 5 in the list are used most commonly for sleep disorders.
- Dalmane (Flurazepam)
- Doral (Quazepam)
- Halcion (Triazolam)
- ProSom (Estazolam)
- Restoril (Temazepam)
- Klonopin (Clonazepam)
- Ativan (Lorazepam)
- Xanax (Alprazolam)
The benzodiazepines have been the most commonly used medications in the treatment of insomnia and are certainly safer than some of the older sleeping medications such as the barbiturates (Amytal, Nembutoal, Seconal). However, there have been concerns regarding inappropriate use and abuse of these medications.
These medications are generally recommended only to be used on a short term basis since physical tolerance and dependence can develop. In addition, these medications can often produce a "hangover" effect the following day.

I think people tend to forget that FLoyd is 34 years old! He's about to be 35. dude is pushing his Mid-Thirties. And I really think Floyd wants the pacquiao fight, because he knows he prolly only has maybe 2 really legit good years left in him.
Smaller guys like Floyd don't last as long as the bigger guys like Bernard Hopkins and Vitali Klitshcko. But seeing as Floyd hasn't been into too many wars will help him out in the long run if he decides to continue his career, which I doubt. I'd say Floyd maybe still at his peak, if not then he's already on the decline. |

He still looks pretty sharp at this point.
I think if he keeps fighting after 2012 he will start to slip. I feel 2012 should be his last year active. |

Manfredy, Corrales, C. Hernandez, Chavez, Castillo, N'dou, Judah, Hatton, and Ortiz were all in their primes when Floyd fought them, and only Judah was coming off a loss or bad performance. G. Hernandez and J.M. Marquez were past their primes-still good when Floyd fought them. Hernandez was seen as the top 130 lb fighter in the world, hadn't lost in 3 years since lsoing his only fight to De La Hoya at Lightweight. Marquez was fighting at 144, which is why people said it didn't count as a good win, but now people have changed that opinion, because Marquez arguably just beat Pacquiao at the same weight. The only fights Marquez had lost in recent memory were to John in Indonesia, where almost EVERYONE had Marquez winning, and against Pacquiao, where again....almost everyone had Marquez winning. Gatti, Baldomir, De La Hoya, and Mosley were past their primes, but they were all coming off wins when Floyd fought them. Gatti hadn't lost in 3 years, 5 straight wins. Baldomir hadn't lost in 8 years, was coming off a huge win over a prime Zab Judah. De La Hoya hd lostot Hopkins in 04', came back after 2 years and KO'd Mayorga, was seen as the top 154 lb fighter in the world. Mosley hadn't lost in 3 years, was coming off KO wins over Mayorga and Margarito, the last time we saw a somewhat prime Margarito. |

A grandpa that was coming off KO wins over Mayorga and Margarito, the last time we saw a somewhat prime Margarito. A bum that was coming off 5 straight wins and a draw he should have won over Lamont Peterson, who just beat Amir Khan. And one of those 5 wins was against previously unbeaten WBC WW champ Andre Berto. You also know what the funny thing is.....people say Manny fought Cotto and Margarito, who Floyd didn't, Haha......Manny refused to fight Shane in 2009 and 2010 after he just KO'd Mayorga and Margarito, and instead fought Clottey, who hadn't won a boxing match in 2 years. Manny refused to fight Ortiz, who said he wanted Pacquiao next, and instead fought a 38 year old Marquez, who Floyd dominated over 2 years ago at the same weight...... |

In 2007 Peter Silverman bought a portrait titled Young Girl in Profile in Renaissance Dress for $19,000. Christie's had previously sold it in 1998. At that sale they described it as a 19th Century German drawing.
Silverman thought there was more to the portrait than met the eye, so he decided to have it examined further. The Paris lab he used to assess it found a fingerprint on it that they said substantially matched a known finger print of Leonardo da Vinci.
The drawing was done by a left-handed person and stylistic mannerisms, carbon dating and the dress the young girl wears in the drawing match 15th Milanese fashion.
If verified as a da Vinci the drawing would be worth tens of million of dollars.
Aside from wondering exactly how a da Vinci gets lost, I feel sorry for the poor person who sold such a valuable object. I wonder if they got tired of it hanging in their living room and replaced it with an Alma Thomas masterpiece? Regardless, finding out you peddled a da Vinci it must feel make you feel kind of like you're the Fifth Beatle.

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: Love this race, great start to the year. Marshalls are FAB.In full: 2nd year of running this race for me, and I'll be back again next year. It's all very well organised and there's a great atmosphere. The marshalls are fantastic, and the stand out feature of the race. For a plodder like me, it's great to have such encouragement all the way round.Nice to kick myself into gear for Marathon training. Date of review: January 17, 2012
In short: Not a full 5k run, but for a good cause.In full: The race at Redditch didn't have the feel to it that other Race for Life runs I've done had (compared to Bromsgrove and Stratford) and I was REALLY disappointed that the course was 650m short of 5k as I was definitley on for a new PB!All for a good cause though so you can't fault it - and it doesn't masquerade itself as an exact 5k race. It's a charity run, and it does what it says on the tin!Date of review: July 19, 2010
In short: A feel good race!In full: As a relatively new runner (this was only my 2nd 10k race) I found the ups and downs a good challenge! The uphill at around the 7.5km mark was a bit of a challenge, but it felt BRILLIANT to have reached the top! The remainder downhill was a lovely way to finish.Date of review: July 12, 2010
In short: Very enjoyable and a nice route! Made a whole day out of it.In full: This was my boyfriend's first running event - and he loved it! The route was lovely, scenic and straight forward with a slow incline for the first 2k. Didn't quite get a PB but nevermind! LOVED watching the Kids 1.5k Challenge.and looking round the various stalls and the Police Dog Unit show. The organiser even spoke to me as he ran past me, offering words of encouragement! Lovely.Date of review: June 21, 2010

"Why all the Sex?"
I really get tired of authors who have to include a bunch of sex in their books. This has a terrific plot and good characters, but the amount of sexual references gets tiresome. I don't mind some references, but the sheer volume is unnecessary and takes away from the plot. It's just distracting. I do like the narrator, by the way. Not sure why others don't.
"Great...And Can Share it With My Kids"
This is an intelligent and engaging book that appeals to the adult fantasy readers/listeners. But as opposed to those like George RR Martin, who have a lot of graphic content not appropriate for kids, this has none of that. I am so glad that Robin Hobb doesn't see that as necessary for a good tale. It is just as good as these others, but without the unnecessary baggage. Highly recommended!
"Beware of "Miracles""
Much of what Dr. Fuhrman writes is good sense: eat lots of veggies and stay away from processed foods. But his constant use of the word "miraculous" and others of that sort make this no more than a book of hype. Some claims are a bit on the outrageous side as well; his use of medical studies is a classic case of coming to a conclusion and finding studies to back them up. I tried to listen to glean nuggets but got so turned off by his hypish speak that I couldn't finish.
There are no miracles for weight loss. If there were easy answers or miracles, people would not be fat.
The only bad side of downloading this book is that it may commit you to a big investment in Terry Pratchett audiobooks. OK, the other bad side is that you may drive off the road while laughing. I listened to this with my kids and had a wonderful time doing it. Yes, there are a few off-"colour" remarks, but the only kids who would understand it are probably old enough to hear it. Get this.
I got this book when it was on sale, but as I listened I was quickly drawn into the story and eventually got all of the audiobooks in the series. The same thing happened with my son when I let him listen. Fun story and good idea for the plot. Very well narrated as well. Definitely worth getting. Prepare to download the others.
Incredible story. Gripping. I lost myself in it. But...I could not play it out loud an could not share it with my kids (as I have others). Sexual content is frequent, although not graphic. F**k is said quite often. I'm not quite sure why the author needed to do this, but it did limit how I could listen to it. The story is still so good that it easily overcame this negative. Readers should just be aware.

Learn more about Sugar:
A gifted pitcher travels from his home in the dominican republic to play minor league baseball in the U.S., where he struggles with the new culture and the pressure of knowing that only his success can rescue his family. |
Editor's Note
With SUGAR, filmmaking partners Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck prove that their Oscar-nominated HALF NELSON was no fluke. In following one aspiring young athlete from an academy in the Dominican Republic to minor-league ballparks in the United States, Boden and Fleck haven?t just made one of the best and most honest baseball movies ever--they have also produced an intelligent, humane, and universal portrait of the immigrant experience. Non-actor Algenis Perez Soto plays Miguel "Sugar" Santos, a 19-year-old pitcher who dreams of becoming a major-league baseball star. When Sugar?s newly acquired knuckle curveball begins to find its groove, he is called up to America. But the path to success isn?t easy: Sugar must work his way up from the minor leagues before he is welcomed into the majors. Unfortunately, before that happens, Sugar begins to sense that he doesn?t have what it takes to make it. Rather than let the powers-that-be cut him from the team, he cuts himself and heads to New York City to embark on a new life.Boden and Fleck pull off something quite miraculous with SUGAR. They have made a movie that retains the spirit of a more classical type of movie while at the same time single-handedly reinventing the sports genre. Unlike most Hollywood efforts, Boden and Fleck aren?t interested in telling the story of a megastar. Their whole point is to focus on an infinitely more common type of athlete: the one who doesn?t rise all the way to the top. Boden?s editing, Andrij Parekh?s cinematography, Michael Brook?s music, and Perez Soto?s performance are all extraordinary. Like its title, SUGAR is very, very sweet.

Inter Milan slips up against Bologna
A week to forget for Inter Milan drew to a close in miserable fashion as Bologna condemned the Nerazzurri to another joyless 1-0 defeat.
Coach Andrea Stramaccioni promised a spirited response to Thursday's 3-0 Europa League reverse at Tottenham, with his pledge to steer Inter closer to Serie A's top three bringing a bumper crowd to the San Siro.
That crowd soon turned nasty as mid-table Bologna dominated from start to finish and Alberto Gilardino's classy volley midway through the second half embarrassed Inter's players into mounting a tame fightback.
Fiorentina's 2-0 victory at Lazio sees Inter slip into fifth place with AC Milan and the nearest Champions League berth four points away.
How Inter reached the interval level was anyone's guess as Bologna subjected their hosts to an unrelenting siege for 45 minutes.
The early exchanges saw Fredrik Sorensen nod a free-kick over the crossbar before Manolo Gabbiadini rippled the side netting from close range.
Former AC Milan striker Gilardino then flashed a searing half-volley across Inter keeper Juan Pablo Carrizo, who was deputizing for the suspended Samir Handanovic.
It was not long before a section of frustrated home fans unfurled a banner which read: "Let one of us have a go, you never know we could be good and at least we're Inter fans..."
Nothing changed on the pitch and Alessandro Diamanti saw a dangerous free-kick skim across the goalmouth with no Bologna player able to turn the ball home.
What looked like a rare Inter foray forward ended in farce as Ezequiel Schelotto wasted Rodrigo Palacio's killer ball on the counter-attack and the whistles grew louder.
Javier Zanetti was making his 600th appearance in Serie A and not for the first time in his Inter career the Argentinian saved his club's blushes by repelling a Gabbiadini header at the back post.
Stramaccioni gave his players a dressing-down at the interval and Antonio Cassano duly replaced 18-year-old Marco Benassi for the second half.
That change paid dividends and with Inter's main creative outlet restored to the team, Dejan Stankovic soon found Juan Jesus with a deft cross, only for the Brazilian to slightly mistime his finish.
The 57th minute, however, brought the inevitable Bologna breakthrough and Jesus was a mere spectator as Gilardino volleyed Diego Perez's cross beyond Carrizo.
The Rossoblu came desperately close to a quickfire double as Diamanti beat Jesus to serve Gabbiadini from deep, but this time the connection saw the ball fly high over the bar.
With Cassano pulling the strings Inter were a different prospect, though, and the Bari-born striker was unfortunate not to tuck home an equaliser in the 72nd minute as substitute Naldo stole in to make the crucial block.
It was a rare moment of brilliance from the hosts but Bologna were dangerous every time they went forward and Carrizo was at full stretch to repel Rene Khrin, who wriggled free to get his head to Diamanti's corner.
Time was running out for Inter and not even an acrobatic bicycle kick from Andrea Ranocchia five minutes from time could save them from defeat in front of a disillusioned home crowd.

How weird is this?
UCONN could possibly have 3 #1 draft selections this year while teams like Notre Dame and Michigan will have zero. I thought that was an interesting tidbit.

Re: How weird is this?
It's definitely a weird situation, I'm very happy for UCONN though, to be publicized for basketball and now the possibility of having 3 NFL First Round picks. It's really great for them!

Re: How weird is this?
Don't forget Miami... they probably won't have a DAY ONE draft pick. ND and Michigan are possible no shows on Saturday as well.

Absolutely. It's in the Texans best interest that the player work his issues out and start producing. I don't think anyone is really excited about the prospect of seeing Bullock wash out. Even if you don't like Aggies (and I'm not a fan in the least) he'd really only be one less Aggie around here and that's not much of a difference. Plus I forgive all transgressions once they hit the professional level. I got over the Vince Young bull**** and will get over all the Johnny Football bull**** too. Couldn't care less about that.
I just worry when a kicker goes on a binge of badness like I've seen the last two weeks. You start to wonder what it's going to take to pull him out of it or if he will even pull out of it.
Fitz makes bad decisions. That's not going to change.

Other Virginia Cases with Perjury or False Accusation
In October 1991, 81-year-old Edward Cook Sr. was found stabbed to death in his apartment in Leesburg, Virginia. His wife told police she had been gone for a few hours and when she returned, she found his body.
On April 28, 1992, 32-year-old Curtis White was charged with murder and robbery. Cook was married to White's grandmother, and police said that that White killed him and robbed him of $600 to buy crack cocaine.
During a preliminary hearing, Larry Beale testified for the prosecution under a grant of immunity. Beale said that he went with White to the apartment so White could borrow money from Cook.
Beale, an admitted crack addict, testified that White stabbed Cook and then gave him the knife and Cook's wallet, which he said he put in a dumpster. Neither was ever found. Beale said that White paid him $200 to remain silent.
By the time White came to trial in May 1993, prosecutors no longer believed Beale was just a bystander who helped dispose of evidence. Beale was indicted on charges of murder and robbery as well.
At White's trial in Loudoun County Circuit Court, Jerry Buracker, testified that while he was in a jail cell with White prior to trial, White confessed to the killing. Another witness testified that White had purchased crack cocaine shortly after Cook was slain. Residents of the building said they saw White in the area before the murder and not long afterward as well.
On May 27, 1993, a jury convicted White of first-degree murder and robbery.
In December 1993, while White was awaiting sentencing, Loudoun County Circuit Court Judge James Chamblin vacated the convictions and ordered a new trial. The judge ruled that the prosecution had failed to disclose to White's defense attorney notes taken by police during an interview with Buracker, whose background included a conviction for lying to police about another murder. The notes contained evidence that the judge ruled could have been used to impeach Buracker's trial testimony.
White went on trial for a second time in April 1994. By then, Beale had been convicted of robbery and acquitted of murder and was sentenced to seven years in prison.
White's attorneys argued that Beale, who was not called as a witness in the trial, was the real killer and that he lied to police originally to blame the killing on White.
On April 28, 1994, a jury acquitted White and he was released.

Holiday Treats + Free Printable Gift Tags
posted by Andrea | 11/12/2010Today, I have the privilege of introducing you to one of my FAVORITE food bloggers; Brenda Score from a farmgirl's dabbles!
Not only is Brenda one of the nicest, sweetest, and friendliest women around; she also happens to be an AMAZING cook and food photographer. Plus she just makes everything look so simple — and I love simple.
Hello! I'm Brenda from a farmgirl's dabbles. It's so nice to be here, guest posting for Andrea.
I'm pretty new to the "Land of Blog" and Andrea has been such a delightful friend and a genuine help to me – I'm truly honored to be here sharing some fun food ideas for the upcoming Christmas season.
My visit here ties in with a little series I have going on at a farmgirl's dabbles, titled "Sweet (and easy!) Christmas Gifts From One Day in the Kitchen". Overthe next couple of weeks I will be featuring some fun and simple treats that are perfect for gifting, so I would love for you to keep checking back at my site – I have so much tasty stuff to share!
My family has a Christmas Eve tradition of making homemade ice cream.
I can remember, as a child, the excitement when Dad would pull that old crank ice-cream maker from it's 12-month vacation in the store room. We only made icecream one day a year, on Christmas Eve. It was a very special treat, and highly anticipated.
If you share in that same family tradition, this Hot Fudge Sauce is a wonderful topper for homemade ice cream. Or for any ice cream brought home from the store. It's extremely easy to make and adds a touch of fun indulgence when entertaining in your own home. How about warm Hot Fudge Sauce atop a couple scoops of peppermint ice cream? What a beautiful, and incredibly easy, holiday dessert.
A jar of homemade Hot Fudge Sauce can also be a lovely gift, especially when given as a hostess gift. It does need to be refrigerated, and should be eaten within a week. So, when invited to a Christmas party this year, just whip up a batch of this sauce earlier in the day, package it up all pretty, and you have yourself a very special gift to give from your own kitchen.
And when you hand it over to your party hosts, they can easily tuck it into their own refrigerator, to enjoy during the upcoming week.
Hot Fudge Sauce
- 3 T. butter
- 1/4 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips (I prefer Guittard brand)
- 1 c. powdered sugar
- 2/3 c. evaporated milk (1 12-oz. can will make a double batch of hot fudge. Just double the other 3 ingredients, too.)
- Melt together butter and chocolate over low heat.
- Stir in powdered sugar and evaporated milk.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat then boil for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring continuously.
This recipe is easily doubled.
Yield: 1 cup hot fudge sauce
This next recipe for Chocolate & Candy Cane Marshmallows is so much fun, I just can't stand it! And it's a very quick kitchen accomplishment. My three year old daughter and I cranked out a batch of these in about 20 minutes flat. We also managed to down quite a few large marshmallows, unadorned. The girls know they can always get away with snitching the good stuff when they bake with Mom.
These dipped marshmallows are yummy, and just plain pretty. Imagine plopping a couple of these in a mug of hot cocoa. Now that would be a cheery addition to a cold and blustery winter evening. So make a batch for yourself, and another one to share. Then fill up some small clear cello bags with two or three of these little beauties, pretty them up with some ribbon and gift tags, and you have a fun little way to spread some Christmas cheer.
For a bit larger gift, you could include a few of these Chocolate & Candy Cane Marshmallows with a small canister of cocoa and a mug. What a fun ensemble to give (and to receive!).
Chocolate & Candy Cane Marshmallows
- 24 large marshmallows
- 5 regular size candy canes
- 2 oz. chocolate bark
- 2 oz. dark chocolate chips
- Place candy canes in a sturdy sealed bag and crush with a rolling pin or mallet.
- Place crushed candy canes in a small dish.
- Place the chocolates in a small dish and melt, stirring the chocolates together
- Dip one end of each marshmallow in the chocolate, then shake it gently to allow excess chocolate to drip off. Then press into the crushed candy canes.
- Place marshmallows on a wax paper-covered baking sheet and refrigerate briefly, until the chocolate hardens.
- Store in an airtight container.
- Enjoy on their own or in hot cocoa.
Do you like the gift tags shown on the jar of Hot Fudge Sauce and the package of Chocolate & Candy Cane Marshmallows? Are you in need of some fresh and fun Christmas gift tags this year?
Well, how about a free printable?!

ST. LOUIS — Washington University's chancellor told students staging a sit-in that he will meet with them again, but he wants it to be after they end their protest.
The sit-in was in its 17th day on Wednesday.
Thirteen students are staging the sit-in at the undergraduate admissions office at the St. Louis school. They are seeking better wages and benefits for about 500 contract workers in jobs like grounds keeping and food service. A group of students also held a six-day hunger strike but ended that Saturday.
The students also want the school to agree not to interfere if more workers attempt to unionize, said protester Varun Chalivendra, 18.
Chancellor Mark Wrighton has said the university does not attempt to influence independent contract service companies or their employees on labor issues.
He told the students the university has started addressing their concerns about better salary and benefits for contract workers on campus, according to a statement.
The school also said it had a meeting Tuesday with university employees who work for service contractors.
Meanwhile, the two sides were disagreeing about discussions this past weekend.
The university believed an agreement with students had been reached and the protesters would end their hunger strike and sit-in. The school said students outside the meeting then attempted to change the terms.

TUCSON - Another round of storms possible across Southern Arizona to round out the weekend.
As skies clear from east to west in the wake of last night's stormy weather we should see some more activity start fire up a little later this afternoon. With the help of an upper level disturbance moving in from Mexico we could see showers and storms last well into the night.
Storms will initiate in the higher elevations south and east of Tucson and move northwest into the valley floors by this evening. As they do some may become severe with damaging wind gusts and very heavy rainfall. Flooding may become an issue for areas that have already seen heavy rain over the last couple of days.
Still expecting more of a downturn in storm activity by midweek as high pressure sets up in a less favorable position. Daytime highs will remain in the 99-104 degree range over the next several days.

SINGAPORE (ICIS)--China will trim prices of domestic fuel by yuan (CNY) 75-80/tonne ($12-13/tonne) from 6 July, the country's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) said on Friday.
The national average retail price of 90-Ron gasoline will fall by CNY80/tonn to CNY8,945/tonne, while zero pour point diesel will be priced at CNY8,135/tonne, down by CNY75/tonne, the NDRC said.
China adjusts its gasoline and diesel prices every 10 working days based on prices of a basket of international crude. But fuel prices would not be adjusted if the changes are less than CNY50/tonne.

Re-Considering John Dos Passos - ALA 2011 (May 26-29, Boston, MA)full name / name of organization: Victoria M. Bryan contact email: firstname.lastname@example.com In recent years, John Dos Passos has fallen to somewhat low priority in critical study, but the few publications that do exist since the 1970s are engaging and compelling and stand as proof that this author deserves further consideration in our field. This individual panel proposal for ALA's 2011 convention hopes to illustrate the value of continuing to engage in scholarly research, critical conversation, and/or pedagogical approaches to John Dos Passos in the 21st century. Papers of about 20 minutes/10 pages in length on various approaches to Dos Passos's work will be considered for inclusion on the panel. Please submit an abstract of about 250 to 500 words, a CV, and any requests for A/V equipment to Victoria M. Bryan (email@example.com) before January 15, 2011. Decisions about inclusion will be made shortly after that deadline, and the panel proposal will then be sent to the American Literature Association by January 30, 2011. ALA will get back to us shortly after that about the panel's status. cfp categories: american bibliography_and_history_of_the_book cultural_studies_and_historical_approaches ecocriticism_and_environmental_studies ethnicity_and_national_identity gender_studies_and_sexuality general_announcements interdisciplinary religion theory twentieth_century_and_beyond

The mushroom farming industry could use a few more good growers. Less than 300 growers produced last year's U.S. crop. Amazingly, half of those mushroom farmers are located in Chester County, Pa.
So few growers might indicate an opportunity for new farmers who are looking for a major year-round crop. After all, mushroom prices stay fairly steady, and customers are loyal. But any would-be mushroom farmer better know what he's doing. Today's big fungi farmers operate expensive, labor-intensive businesses. Those less-than-300 growers produced over 800 million pounds of mushrooms last year. They're well capitalized, and have large established sales and distribution systems that certainly intimidate new entrants to the market.
On the other hand, while a farmer who grows only a hundred logs of mushrooms may not be counted as a full-time mushroom grower, he can still enjoy profit from his crop. A rustic farmer who sterilizes his compost in a barbecue pit and raises only 12 beds in his basement won't qualify as an official mushroom grower either, but he'll likely enjoy a ready local market for his crop.
Mushroom farming is not for everybody. It takes a knack and careful attention to important cultural details. Whether you're considering building a large commercial Agaricus facility or growing a few Shiitake logs in the barn, profitable mushroom farming, like raising any farm crop, is a just a matter of hard work and careful procedures. Mushroom farming is a lot like making cheese. It's a delicate balance in which farmers must variously encourage and suppress the growth of desirable and undesirable microorganisms. Organisms that support the mushroom bloom must be made to grow, and those that can spoil crops must be halted. Successful mushroom farming on any level is about establishing the procedures that ensure the right balance of control.
Even the seasonal mushroom growers who do not use climate-controlled environments have to maintain a strict adherence to bed preparation and mycelial growth procedures. One key to any new mushroom-growing operation is good record keeping. As new growers experiment with different techniques in an effort to find the most productive methods for their farm, good records will allow them to more easily duplicate their most successful attempts.Create a Mushroom Growing Medium The mushrooms we see on top of the surface are the fruits of plants made up of thin, threadlike cells called mycelium. Just as tomatoes are the fruit of tomato plants, mushrooms are the fruit of organisms that spend most of their lives in the form of a mycelium.The basis of any mushroom-growing operation is the growing medium that supports this mycelium.
Mushroom fungi are saprophytic, which means that they eat dead plants rather than produce chlorophyll to trap energy from the sun like common green plants. They do not grow well in regular soil, but prefer more fiber-filled environments. There are two basic categories of cultivated mushrooms:
Very reliable kits are available for many mushroom varieties. Kits are a great way for prospective farmers to try out new species.Retail nurseries stocked mushroom kits in the past, but these days the Internet is a more reliable source. Some great sites for finding mushroom kits are:
Mushroom-growing industries are springing up in many countries around the world including Mexico and Bolivia. Huge quantities of mushrooms are grown for the Asian market, which is the largest in the world. Asian consumers also are devout believers in the medicinal value of mushrooms—over 50 different species are regularly prescribed by Chinese doctors.Understanding Commercial Mushroom VarietiesThere are two main types of mushrooms: mycelial and mycorrhizzal. Essentially all the cultivated types are mycelial and can grow wherever there is an appropriate growing medium. Mycorrhizzal types need to grow in association with the roots of a living plant or tree. Morels, chanterelles and truffles are examples of mycorrhizzal types. There are some efforts to develop systems for growing truffles and morels, but essentially all of the commercially cultivated mushrooms are of the mycelial type. Far and away the most commonly cultivated types are varieties of Agaricus button mushrooms; 835 of the 853 million pounds of mushrooms produced by the major U.S. growers last year were white button-cap Agaricus species. There are also many other types of cultivated Agaricus, most notably the Italian brown-capped Crimini mushrooms.Next in line are the big brown Shiitake varieties, which are also popular dried. Wild Shiitake were originally found growing in Japan, where their name means "oak-tree mushroom." The gray-fruited Pleurotis varieties, known as oyster mushrooms for their distinctive taste, are also widely grown. Beyond those three types there are many other popular cultivated varieties, including the Hericium mushroom (Lion's Mane, Pom Pom Blanc) which has a crab-meat flavor, and the long-stemmed Enoki mushrooms.If the idea of mushroom farming appeals to you, there's no better time to get started. A bit of research, a little Yankee ingenuity, and you'll be ready to start producing delicious mushrooms.This article first appeared in the December/January 2003 issue of Hobby Farms magazine.

Yesterday turned out to be a great day to ride. After eating like a pig over the past 3 days I needed to burn some calories. I called my one riding buddy but his wife is due any day now so he wasn't going to leave her. So it was just me and my bike. I headed over to tunnel road and found it odd that there were no cars parked there. Anyway off I went and I had a great time being in the woods alone. I really like the peace and quiet of woods and with the sun shining it was just perfect. The trails were a mix of mud and ice. This was my first time riding on ice and that made things really interesting. Almost went down a few times but managed to stay on my feet. I need to invest in some fenders as I was covered in mud. Just a great day of riding.

Early Christmas Gift for the LibraryFriday, December 20th, 2013 - by: Brian Herzog, Head of ReferenceThe Chelmsford Library received an early Christmas gift this week. Nick Arena, 2013 CHS grad gave us in 2 lovely handcrafted benches for the Children's Room. Nick made these benches out of the wood of the old purple beech tree from the Chelmsford Common. He said that since the tree was originally planted by school children, he wanted to bring the benches to the Library for the kids of Chelmsford to enjoy. Nick, currently a freshman at UMass Amherst studying civil engineering, said that he wanted to thank two of his teachers at the high school, Matt Bartos and Doug Greenfield, for the idea and the inspiration. Here's a photo of Nick with the benches - look for them in the Children's Room the next time you're in the library. The workmanship and character of the wood is wonderful - you can even seen evidence of the disease that ultimately was the purple beech tree's demise. These benches are a great way to keep the history of Chelmsford alive. |

Nice and clean modern looking interior. Rather expensive. Staff friendly and polite but young and seemed inexperienced. My friend had to ask for his pint to be topped up and the young man didn't understand his reference to a lined glass. Three beers available including JHB which I tried and was very good. A pleasant environment to be in. WednesdayStooge - 21 Mar 2011 19:25 |
Extraordinary little place tucked away in the middle of a residential street. I must say my wife and I had an absolutely wonderful evening there just last week (hence the first time post of a long time reader of BITE!). We arrived late afternoon and were greeted by a charming young man who I believe was the manager. A pleasure to talk to and extremely knowledgeable about the four ales on the bar (Pride was on superb, full form) he made us feel immediately welcome and looked after us both very well for the rest of the evening. Music and ambience was perfect and our meals were delicious. Staff were attentive but non-intrusive and it was a nice touch to see candles going out on every table - really warmed the room up as night fell. By the time we went to leave at around 9pm, the pub was beginning to fill up with a cheerful crowd but the manager took the time to thank us at our table and waved us off - a great pub host for a young chap! Couldn't fault the place and suggest any previous reviewers with a less than savoury opinion try it again...and soon! Kam kt_1975 - 23 Nov 2009 22:43 |
If you're a lager-loving student with too much money, too much hair gel and like staring at a video screen instead of talking to your mates then go to the Mad Moose. If you're not, then don't. The shame is that this could be a brilliant pub given its building, garden and position; the only remotely plus point now is that when the name was changed in 1995 it was going to be called Beastie O'Shaggs, but they opted for the Mad Moose at the last minute. Bring back the Warwick Arms! Stare_Smokovec - 23 Jun 2009 14:07 |
I've been to this pub several times, and the food on most occasions has been absolutely gorgeous. Tonight me and my other half had the moose burger (again, we've had them before). This time, unlike previous visits, the burgers were bright pink on the inside and didn't look properly cooked. We explained this, and the burgers we taken away to be cooked for longer. They came back burnt on the outside, still bright pink inside, so we gave up and went home rather than making a fuss. After looking on the internet and reading about the dangers of pink beef burgers and food poisoning, we decided we weren't overreacting and went back to explain our concerns. To be fair, we were offered a refund for our unedible meal, which wasn't the point, but which we did accept after being talked down to and fobbed off by the manager. As most of the bar staff are so helpful, and its a nice place, I would write this off as a one off glitch, if it wasn't for the patronising attitude of the manager. Fair enough, the customer might not always be right, but they're still the customer, not something that's been stepped in. Vodka_fairy - 5 Aug 2008 21:07 |
Yet again I have had two fantastic meals here, the upstairs resturant is superb, excellent food, fantastic service, exemplory waiting staff. Incredible place to visit, makes you feel at home. I was approached by two members of staff who recognised me from previous visits but the familiarity was kept in check. A minor complaint about a cold coffee led to an immediate apology, a fresh cup and no charge. The fact that they offer you a small, taster of soup as a starter is a nice touch. itsmattagain - 3 Apr 2008 07:44 |
