Terry Kellum has worked a lot of different in his 50 years of working in Starkville. Just a few weeks ago, he finally decided it was time to retire for good.
He originally started as a bread truck driver in 1960 before serving as a supervisor for the Mississippi State University laundry and dry cleaning plant from 1962-66. He then began a 31-year career in the postal service as one of Starkville's mail carriers until 1997, when he started a six-year stint as an Oktibbeha County receiving clerk. He served the county as the supervisor of District 3 from 2003-07.
But Kellum said one of his favorite jobs was his last one as a shuttle cart driver for OCH Regional Medical Center, where he began working in 2009. He drove a golf cart around for the elderly and disabled, but said he also found there were children of people spending time at the hospital's wellness center who enjoyed the occasional ride. He also always kept peppermint candies on standby for them.
"I told them when I went to work out there that I might not be the best employee they ever had but I'd try to be the best public relations man because I was definitely sold in the hospital and committed to it," Kellum said. "I enjoyed transporting the kids around because they were so energetic, and I kept the treats for them just to see them light up when they saw me coming."
He said he really enjoyed the opportunity he had to serve OCH.
"When I first worked at OCH I thought about how fortunate I was that the Lord placed me there. For me it was just what I needed, and I thought it was all about me, but after about three or four days out in the parking lot and meeting people who were not only hurting physically but in their heart, people who had family problems or health issues they were having a hard time dealing with," Kellum said. "I realized there was a ministry there where I could probably be in a position to help a lot of people if I would take advantage of it, so I tried to do that while I was there."
In his longest-term job as a mail carrier, he served as the president of the Mississippi Letter Carrier Association from 1989-93. Kellum said he enjoyed getting to meet the citizens of Starkville while on his route.
"(I enjoyed) just being out on the street visiting the patrons as I made the rounds and getting to know them personally ... We became familiar with our people, knew their habits and were always on the lookout for them," he said. "I had an instance one time where I had an elderly patron I had gotten used to seeing every day and didn't see her on this particular day. I rang the doorbell, knocked and she didn't come to the door but I heard her say something to me in the background. I called out to her again and found she had fallen in her house and broken a hip. I called her daughter ... she called the ambulance and I stayed there to make sure her mother was OK until somebody got there, then I went ahead and completed my route."
From his childhood in the Self Creek community, Kellum has always been an Oktibbeha County man. His older brother, Jessie Morris Kellum, served the county as a paratrooper in World War II and was killed in Normandy. While he was serving as receiving clerk in 2002, he decided to run for the county's board of supervisors when he realized he might have an opportunity to give back to the community.
"What made me want to run was I realized there was going to be a change one way or the other at that point in the election. I decided to throw my hat in the ring and see if I could be the person who initiated that change," Kellum said. "What I liked most about (being a supervisor) was being in a position where I could do things for the county and people that I would not have had the opportunity to do otherwise. I tried to make sure I was legal in everything I did and make sure it benefitted the taxpayers. Anything I did then, if I had to do over, I'd probably do it the same way."
Kellum and his wife of 47 years, Sue, are now preparing for the next phase of their lives as they begin moving to their daughter Jan's house in Huntersville, N.C. Kellum said he and Sue Kellum are looking forward to spending more time with Jan, their other two children, Gary and Piercy, and their eight grandchildren.
"I told someone I guess we'd go up there an stay until we wore out our welcome or ran out of food," he said.
He said his Christian faith and values are the backbone of what made him successful in all his roles while working in Oktibbeha County and Mississippi State University.
"I've always tried to live my life in a way that represented the Lord I tried to serve and also represented the kind of background I grew up in," he said.

Non sequitur (Latin for "it does not follow."), in formal logic, is an argument where its conclusion does not follow from its premises. In a non sequitur, the conclusion can be either true or false, but the argument is a fallacy because the conclusion does not follow from the premise. All formal fallacies are special cases of non sequitur. The term has special applicability in law, having a formal legal definition. Many types of known non sequitur argument forms have been classified into many different types of logical fallacies.
The term is often used in everyday speech and reasoning to describe a statement in which premise and conclusion are totally unrelated but which is used as if they were. An example might be: "If I buy this cell phone, all people will love me." However, there is no actual relation between buying a cell phone and the love of all people. This kind of reasoning is often used in Advertising to trigger an emotional purchase.
Other examples include:
The fallacy of the undistributed middle is a logical fallacy that is committed when the middle term in a categorical syllogism isn't distributed. It is thus a syllogistic fallacy. More specifically it is also a form of non sequitur.
The fallacy of the undistributed middle takes the following form:
It may or may not be the case that "all Zs are Bs," but in either case it is irrelevant to the conclusion. What is relevant to the conclusion is whether it is true that "all Bs are Zs," which is ignored in the argument.
Note that if the terms were swapped around in either the conclusion or the first co-premise or if the first premise was rewritten to "All Zs can only be Bs" then it would no longer be a fallacy although it could still be unsound. This also goes for the following two logical fallacies which are similar in nature to the fallacy of the undistributed middle and also non sequiturs.
An example can be given as follows:
Any argument that takes the following form is a non sequitur
Even if the premises and conclusion are all true, the conclusion is not a necessary consequence of the premises. This sort of non sequitur is also called affirming the consequent.
An example of affirming the consequent would be:
"I" could be another type of mammal without being a human. While the conclusion may be true, it does not follow from the premises. This argument is still a fallacy even if the conclusion is true. It is a non sequitur.
Another common non sequitur is this:
While the conclusion can indeed be false, this cannot be linked to the premise since the statement is a non sequitur. This is called denying the antecedent.
An example of denying the antecedent would be:
Whether or not the speaker is in Japan cannot be derived from the premise. He could either be outside Japan or anywhere in Japan except Tokyo.

Comments On Mar 05, 2015:Good product easy to install and cheap, if you really want better air circulation , buy two together because I think 6 holes 1 inch is perhaps not quite enough .

Comments On Dec 09, 2014:Okay, but I ended up not using them. They fit 1" holes, and even smaller than than on the OD. They may make a difference in some applications, but I did not think they would do much for me.

Comments On Apr 02, 2014:After I got these I put 12 holes in airbox and put these in. Really opened up my quad great compromise since I was stuck between and no lid and drilling holes so this was perfect. Need to be cleaned a lot but still worked great.

Had danced around the idea of this thread elsewhere and I figured rather than just waiting for arm spin (who I'll still be excited to read) I'll go ahead and put myself out there with my picks.
1. Jordan Burroughs (USA): Hasn't lost in two years, beat the #2 and #3 guys each of the last two years in winning his titles.
2. Toghrul Asgarov (AZE): To be the man, beat the man. He beat the man.
3. Artur Taymazov (UZB): Might be a little too high especially if we're talking about p4p, but four straight Olympic finals with three straight Golds deserves some due.
4. Sharif Sharifov (AZE): Came back and defended his surprise title from last year. No idea about any of his other results but consecutive titles gets him here given how crazy results were these last three days.
5. Besik Kudukhov (RUS): Don't know what's been up with him the last few months but whatever it is I'm rooting for him to figure it out as I'm still a fan. If he figures it out and allows us to see showdowns between him and Asgarov the next few years I won't complain.
6. Reza Yazdani (IRI): Thrilled to see Varner win today, but had Yazdani not gotten hurt given how he looked to be wrestling today I think he'd have won this bracket. Beat Varner handily earlier this year.
7. Tatsuhiro Yonemitsu (JPN): Very impressive in making the finals in whats been a wild 66 kilo weight for the second year in a row and improving his medal color this year. Exciting style, I'm a fan.
8. Djamal Otarsultanov (RUS): Happy to see him make the team this year, and happy to see him win it.
9. Denis Tsargush (RUS): Great wrestler with two well deserved World Titles but I don't see how he ever beats Burroughs.
10. Jake Varner (USA): I can understand arguments related to leaving him off here, but he just won the Olympics and he medaled last year. Oh and USA!
Honorable Mention: Victor Lebedev (RUS), Abdusalam Gadisov (RUS), Sadegh Goudarzi (IRI), Kyong Il Yang (PRK)

Ogre; a color-coordinated NXT "tank"
Thus was born Ogre:
The four zamor launchers can fire a little over 9 balls each second, with a large "tray" on the top that feeds about 50 of them and allows for easy reloading. The tank treads have the upper point of the triangle "sprung"... the tension on the tread is maintained by a LEGO shock, so that the treads do not have any slack in them (and when going over a bump, the treads can "stretch" slightly to compensate). It doesn't use any NXT motors (after all, they didn't go with the color scheme), instead driving the treads and the launcher using the PF XL motors. This gives it a nice easy way to run it as well: with the NXT off, Ogre can be remote controlled using two stock PF remotes. But turn on the black NXT, and it can control the entire vehicle using the Hitechnic IRLink, in a fully autonomous mode where it can "hunt" for isolated targets, center on them, and then launch a volley of spheres while advancing towards the target (and disengaging when the target is no longer present). Another fun aspect is a small spy cam mounted to one side. With that, both remote control an dautonomous modes are a lot more fun as you "ride along" on Ogre as it roams across the countryside. Or, well, the living room.
Originally I wasn't sure of the black NXT. And for functionality, after all, a regular NXT does have the same feature set. But after playing around with it, it has given me some ideas for different color schemes, something that has always been rather lacking before: after all, the RCX had just one color (one I liked, but still... only one).

Wow! I am very impressed, both by the construction of it and the programming. Will you be posting that on NXTLog or any other site? I'd love to look at some pictures of it. Congrats on the black NXT, I'll be looking for other black creations:)

That is got to be one of the most evil robot I seen.... and I mean that in a nice way.
Thanks for sharing a very entertaining video

Wow, this is amazing! Can you send me instructions? :)

- dilip said...
very nice. and the look is amazing too.
can you use the camera to scan for targets instead of the US sensor? then i could identify colors(friends and enemies).
- Feb 28, 2009, 11:12:00 PM
- Brian Davis said...
No problem. Here, the black NXT just blends right in to the color scheme, and makes it look much more menacing (I did actually try a version in off-white/gray, but it really didn't have the same "feel"). Something I was pleasantly surprised by is the sounds it makes during firing; slowed down they sound even better, and I was amazed when I first video test in slow motion how it looked and sounded.

Wow! This is the best robot i've seen in a while! Very nice colors, great functionality, and perfect use of IR Link. I also have a question: what are those balls and firing thing, and where do I get them. Also, is the black the only differnece in the two NXTs? Lastly, is the brick the only thing that comes with the Black NXT? PS I hope you don't mind me sharing this in my blog, it's exceptional and I'll obviously give you credit.

Ah, yes... the ongoing war between robot and cats. When will it end? How long can these conflicts be endured by either side?
- Mar 1, 2009, 2:07:00 AM
- Brian Davis said...
To be honest, the cats pretty much ignore it, even if they are hit by one of the sphere (and no, I *don't* target the cats on purpose, but they have walked right through the field of fire on more than one occasion). However, they love chasing the spheres as they fly out, or batting them around afterward.
In the long run, I suspect that the cat/robot war will be resolved when the cats start developing robots against us. I keep the NXTs carefully separated from our cats, just in case...

- NXTFreak said...
Quite an impressive robot! And it actually has a color scheme! Amazing... Also, your zamor sphere system seems very reliable and strong; nice job. I would love to know more about your tread "sprung" system. I too have those treads, and have the same problem: the treads are always too loose. They need to be a little bit more taught. How did you go about this with springs? Do you by chance have any "up-close" pictures of your tread system so that I can perhaps use it in some of my robots? Well, thanks for showing us Ogre. I certainly enjoyed watching the video. Have a nice day, NXTFreak

What an impressive beast!
By the way, I suppose the real menace for mankind is the cats teaming up with the robots against us in the end ... ;)
On the other hand, the cats don't need to - they rule us already anyway. :)

- Dave Parker said...
Excellent Brian! Now you need to make a street sweeper or Zamboni to clean up!
But my money's on the cats:
Diet: 100% protein
Immune System: Can drink pond water and eat rotting animals and only get stronger from it.
General Design Goals: Walking weapon
Stealth: Silent to sound sensor and virtually invisible to ultrasonic sensor
Hearing: Can hear NXT motors from probably 1 mile away
Vision: Well beyond useful ambient light threshold of light sensor, and, er, a little more than than 1 pixel.
Allies: Has human race well-trained to serve them.
Boot-up Time: Sleeping to chop-licking victory in 0.5 seconds.
Speed: By the time it triggers the touch sensor, it's way too late.

Fatal flaw: an entire cat army can be disabled by a warm patch of sunlight or a single laser pointer.
The robots may have a chance... :)

Organization and motivation are sometimes problems... However, EDS is working on a solution:
- Mar 1, 2009, 2:36:00 PM
- Brian Davis said...
Ti0mma: I don't have any directions for this (at some point, I'll take it apart completely and document it that way, but it's too much fun at the moment). But the essential bits of the Hailstorm launcher are up on NXTlog in an LDD file, so at least the "weapon" is well-documented.
dilip: I could use a camera, but (a) I don't have one, and (b) it's still difficult to get it to reconize a "target" this way, given the variety of colors in the background, the different shapes, etc. Not impossible, but not within the hardware solutions I currently have available.
Clgfive: blog away - we put this stuff out there for public consumption. The balls are called "Zamor spheres", and they have a couple of different style launchers - the older one (the looks a little like a three-fingered hand) is much easier to use in a robot. You could probably get them off Bricklink or something similar, although they are in some of the recent Bionicle sets (but you have to look carefully to see which type of launcher you are getting). The Black NXT is the same as a regular NXT "under the hood", and I think the package only comes with the Black NXT and some special media - not a bunch of LEGO parts.
And on a completely separate subject... Ill never be able to say "herding cats" with a straight face again. Thanks, Dave :).

Amazon recommended his books to me because of my Pratchett selections...the summary of Mercury Falls looks interesting (although a little close in concept to Good Omens):
"Years of covering the antics of End Times cults for The Banner, a religious news magazine, have left Christine Temetri not only jaded but seriously questioning her career choice. That is, until she meets Mercury, an anti-establishment angel who's frittering his time away whipping up batches of Rice Krispy Treats and perfecting his ping-pong backhand instead of doing his job: helping to orchestrate Armageddon. With the end near and angels and demons debating the finer political points of the Apocalypse, Christine and Mercury accidentally foil an attempt to assassinate one Karl Grissom, a thirty-seven-year-old film school dropout about to make his big break as the Antichrist. Now, to save the world, she must negotiate the byzantine bureaucracies of Heaven and Hell and convince the apathetic Mercury to take a stand, all the while putting up with the obnoxious mouth-breathing Antichrist."

HiTechnic is just about to launch their new IR-Link sensor.
For more details about the IR-Link, checkout the full review of it in BrickJournal #9.
For many people with legacy MINDSTORMS RCX bricks, the new product will enable creation of robots with both an RCX and NXT that communicate with each other.
For some it will be a means of automating and controlling various home appliances in the house from NXT by mimicking their Infra red remote control. See comments under this post from early this year.
However, for me the most interesting thing about the new HiTechnic IR-Link sensor is how it can be used for robotizing LEGO TECHNIC creations.
The picture below shows a bulldozer 'robototized' by adding a MINDSTORMS NXT brick and a NXT IR-Link (made by HiTechnic) to a TECHNIC bulldozer 8275.
In the video below, you can see it scanning the environment with the Ultrasonic sensors and then flattening anything in its path using the Ripper and the blade:
If you want to learn how to robotize your own LEGO TECHNIC creations with NXT, Power function motors and the new IR-Link, checkout the following video:

Where did you get the PF Motor Block for NXT-G?

- BlueToothKiwi said...
The one I used was created by the sensor supplier (HiTechnic).
Once it hits the market, my understanding is that the PF Motor Block for NXT-G can be downloaded from the HiTechnic web site downloads section (like you do with the NXT-G blocks for their other NXT sensors that are in production)

MindSensors has a similar IR sensor too. Lets you control the PF Motor blocks.
Not as fancy looking as the one from HiTechnic, but they do have one.

do know of it can communicate with a tv. like tell it which channel to watch???

The impressive collection of Pine Ridge vineyards - four in the Stags Leap District, three in Rutherford, three in Carneros, and one each in Howell Mountain and Oakville - provides a remarkable palette for winemaker Michael Beaulac.
Michael Beaulac combines sensitivity to terroir with the art of assemblage to bring out the outstanding characteristics of each vineyard and to guide the fruit towards the wines they should naturally be.
Stags Leap District
Elegant power…
This appellation was one of the first in the United States to be approved is distinguished by its distinctive soil. Our 4 vineyards here take advantage of the coarsely eroded loam and clay soils and the bare rocks that heat the district during the day yet cool quickly at night when breezes from the rugged Pacific Coastline enter the valley.
Pine Ridge Estate Vineyard: This signature Estate Vineyard is planted on a steeply terraced hillside, necessitating us to farm most of the 25-acres by hand. The site features Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and 2 acres of deliciously flavorful Chardonnay—this block, Le Petit Clos, may well be the only Chardonnay planted in the Stags Leap District. Afternoon breezes that course into this small canyon behind the winery create a slightly cooler microclimate than found in the rest of the appellation. The climate combined with the steep angle of the hillside and the well-draining rock and sand soils result in low yield fruit with intense flavors.
Locked Horns Vineyard: Just south of our Pine Ridge Estate Vineyard, this 6-acre site features clay loam soils with excellent water retention. Proven to be a perfect home for Cabernet Sauvignon Clone 7, Locked Horns Vineyard is an important Cabernet site. Cuttings from this vineyard are so prodigious they are often used to develop other vineyards in our estate collection.
Cornerstone Vineyard: This 7-acre parcel on the northernmost edge of the Stag's Leap District is planted solely to Cabernet Sauvignon. Fruit from here releases delicate cocoa aromas and a velvety mouth feel. Plum and anise notes often complement the wine's pronounced richness and supple body.
Circle Hill Vineyard: This especially rocky vineyard poses farming challenges to the vineyard crew, who must identify the perfect moment at which to cultivate the soil each spring. The vineyard is planted to Cabernet Sauvignon Clones 33 and 7.
Characteristics of Stags Leap District Wines
The signature varietal of the Stags Leap District is Cabernet Sauvignon. All the Bordeaux varietals planted here share a distinctive balance of power and elegance with concentrated flavors of black cherries, currants and chocolate.
Classic richness…
Prized Cabernet Sauvignon wines have been synonymous with the Rutherford Appellation since the mid 1800s, and the varietal now represents more than half of the planted acreage in Rutherford. The district is characterized by well-drained alluvial-fan soils: gravel sand and loam. The wines grown here are so distinctive that the phrase "Rutherford Dust" was coined in an effort to define the elusive qualities of the renowned terroir.
Rutherford Ridge Vineyard: With a steeply sloping hillside giving way to the rich valley floor, this 33-acre site produces a variety of wines. Tremendous Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Tannat are crafted from both the rocky, sandy hillsides and the heavy clay of the flats. The prized Block 21 at the peak of the hill produces rich, complex Cabernet Sauvignon, often destined for our flagship blend, FORTIS.
Manley Lane Vineyard: This 16-acre site produces traditional Rutherford style Cabernet Sauvignons from Clones 191, 337, 341 and 7 on its heavy clay soils.
Hidden Canyon Vineyard: Cabernet Sauvignon thrives on this 12-acre spot planted exclusively to Clone 7. Tucked into a niche on a slope above the valley floor, the vineyard is perceptibly warmer than its neighbors, creating a unique style of Rutherford Cabernet.
Characteristics of Rutherford wines
Quintessential Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits fine tannins accompanied by lush, round cherry and black currant flavors with an inky deep color.
Stuctured grace…
The Oakville Appellation crosses the valley from the eastern Vaca Range to the Mayacamas Mountains on the west. Gravelly soils and the mid-valley location — where morning fog rolls north from the San Pablo Bay followed by bright, warm sunny afternoons—translate into optimal growing conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon.
Dos Olivos Vineyard: This vineyard derives its name from the two majestic olive trees that flank the entranceway to the property. In the rich, red volcanic soil of this 25-acre site, we've planted primarily Cabernet Sauvignon (Clones 337, 7, 8), with some Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.
Characteristics of Oakville Wines
Bordeaux style red wines produced here are well balanced, displaying bright red fruit flavors—cherry, currant and cranberry—with finely integrated tannins.
Cool balance…
Located in the southernmost edge of the Napa Valley, vineyards in the Carneros appellation benefit from the marine influence of nearby San Pablo Bay. Overcast mornings and cool afternoon breezes contribute to a slow, even development of the grapes, resulting in an optimal balance of sugar and acid. The shallow and rocky soil over a base of clay provides just enough nutrients to support vine growth and fruit maturity.
Carneros Collines: A 38-acre site situated in the heart of Carneros is home to Merlot and the famed Dijon Chardonnay Clones (76, 95, 96.) This vineyard typically sees the first bud break of the season.
McKinnon Vineyard: Dedicated exclusively to Merlot, this 8-acre vineyard is planted on Carneros' notorious "hard pan" clay soil in a 4' x 8' spacing for optimal vine density.
Olive Pond Vineyard: Chardonnay Clones 352, 92 and 76 are planted on this 3-acre plot, located directly across the street from McKinnon Vineyard.
Characteristics of Carneros wines
Carneros Merlots reveal delicate aromas of mint and eucalyptus highlighted by bright acidity, while Chardonnays feature ripe fruit notes of lemon, pineapple and honeycomb.
Howell Mountain
Rugged intensity…
Rising nearly 2,000 feet above sea level on Napa Valley's northeastern edge, Howell Mountain Appellation experiences more dramatic temperatures than the valley floor—with warmer summer temperatures and colder winters leading to a late bud break and a late harvest. Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown at this altitude typically develop thicker skins resulting in robust tannins.
Las Posadas Vineyard: This spectacular mountain site features 9-acres of Cabernet Sauvignon Clone 7 in dense 3' x 5' spacing. The dry, volcanic tufa soils drain rapidly, forcing vine roots to plunge deep into the mountainside in search of water. The struggling vines produce sparse clusters and small berries with intense flavor and color.
Characteristics of Howell Mountain Wines
This rugged, mountain appellation produces wines that are characteristically dense and full-bodied with pronounced black fruit flavors. In the glass, Howell Mountain Cabernets introduce a savory herbal note matched with brambly dark berry flavors and aromas, complexity and pronounced tannins.

"The Last Stand" Trailer and Jaimie Alexander
Posted by KingShamus on January 4, 2013
Oh look, Arnold Schwarzenegger is back making movies again.
I guess he's been back at it since "The Expendables", but this is the first post-Governator film where he's the lead. At least that I can remember. Whatevs.
My inner 8th grader wants to like Arnold as an action movie dude again. His work from "Conan the Barbarian" to right around the mid-90's is pretty much untouchable. On the other hand, his running of California was damn near impeachable. Ahhhnold ran as the anti-Gray Davis, then proceeded to become…Gray Davis.
On the other other hand, a sixty-five year old guy is trying to do what he does best. Fine. Good luck with that, homie.
Co-starring with Schwarzenegger is up and coming actress Jaimie Alexander. She's best known from the Thor flick that came out a while back. And, yeah, she's kinda cute.
So this woman is an up and coming actress who is not shy about her looks or her drinking habits.
Fair enough.
But I have to draw the line at dog-eating.
For shame, Jaimie Alexander. For shame.
I posted pics of this attractive lady for many reasons. Mostly because Manhattan Infidel and Bunkerville gave me crap about the lack of Rule Five posts lately. What can I say? I succumb to peer pressure.

Oh, man. Somebody let Grandpa out of the assisted living facility and gave him a pile of Viagra and a .357.
It's good to see that Johnny Knoxville is getting some more work, though.
Oh, yeah, and: B00B135!

The city of Utica has great shopping areas and full of other great discoveries. We golfed at Timberwood Golf Course for the first time and would recommend it. It was a very nice course that is "women friendly" as mentioned when we were checking in.

Hello! I'm new here - you might have noticed - and I'm glad there is finally an official Pratchett site! When did this pop up? Last time I googled I could only find very little.
Well, I'm happy to have found it and I'm surprised there are not more registered users on the forum, but also secretly (shh!) glad - small forums are the best kind!
I am sure there is some fantastic mingling to be had and I look forward to it. =)

Be Hostels is happy to tell you about one more spanish festival, probably the craziest one! La Tomatina is worth to see, which is practically a big tomato fight! Grab the biggest one and throw it to your friend!
La Tomatina is the most popular festival held in Buñol, Valencia which happens every year on the last Wednesday of August. The party is so popular especially among young people and in fact it is a big tomato fight between 11am and 1pm, where participants throw tomatoes at each other.
The origins of La Tomatina aren't clear with several theories explaining how Bunyol has become home to the world's biggest tomato fight. However, the most plausible suggests that the most likely explanation dates back to 1945 when an annual parade of enormous figures with big heads (Gigantes y Cabezudos) was passing through the streets of Bunyol.
It seems that some youngsters tried to join in the parade and accidentally knocked over one of the giants who got to his feet and started swinging out at everyone around him. In retaliation the youngsters grabbed some tomatoes from a nearby vegetable stall and started throwing them at him until the police arrived to break things up.
The following year on the same last Wednesday of August these young people returned to the town hall square and started another tomato fight using their own tomatoes. Again the police intervened and in subsequent years the local council tried to ban the 'El día de la Tomatina' but with little success as event continued to grow year after year reaching the ludicrous size it is today.
The following rules have been set down by the Bunyol Town Council:
• It is illegal to bring any kind of bottles or other objects that could cause an accident.
• You must not tear t-shirts.
• Tomatoes must be crushed before throwing so that they don't hurt anybody.
• You must be careful to avoid the lorries which carry the tomatoes. As soon as you hear the 2nd banger you must stop throwing tomatoes.
"Try to enjoy yourself as much as possible but respect these rules and the people. In the "tomatina" festival there has never been a mishap and we would like it to stay that way so everybody around the world can have a good time."
Be Hostels advices you to join this crazy event to have an unforgettable experience in your life! Don't forget to take with you clothes to change and be prepared to a real tomato fight! If you still don't know how to go from Barcelona to Bunyol, check out the official La Tomatina bus tickets HERE.

Ace Race info...
Players Packs
Two copies of the 2013 Ace Race prototype disc: It's a beginner-friendly distance driver... and it's in premium Titanium plastic!
One Titanium mini Magnet: you've never seen one before, since they've never been made before!
Two reusable scorecards/bag tags: something else you've never seen before! We commissioned these reusable scorecards just for 2013 Ace Racers. With a pencil and a clean eraser, you can use your new scorecards for round after round. The first one is credit card sized... keep it in your wallet and you'll always have a scorecard ready to go. It also makes a cool bag tag!
The 2nd reusable scorecard is larger for easier use and up to six rounds of 18 before it needs erasing. The flipside has the complete 2013 Discraft flight chart for easy reference anytime. Stash it in your back pocket, in your bag, or use the punch hole to hang it wherever you like.
We're also including a pencil with eraser with your Ace Race player package, so you can start using these cards right away.
Two high impact plastic pint glasses: very cool!
One beverage koozie: silver on black, jack.
One tri-panel Discraft sticker: three stickers in one.
Rules of play:
Players are required to use the player package discs, and only these discs. If a disc is lost, the player has the option of using the second disc from the package. Only one throw per player per hole. All players should have their own scorecards and mark "A" for aces (a hole-in-one) and "M" for holes on which they hit metal.
After all players in the group have thrown, discs are picked up and the group moves directly to the next tee. Players keep their scorecards for round two, using the next line on the card to record the round.
The player with the most aces after 36 holes is declared the winner. In case of ties, the number of metal hits is used as a tie breaker. If a tie persists, a closest to the pin contest is then used to determine the event winner.
There will be shorter tees made for most of the holes.
Prize package:
Grand prize for each event last year a Discraft merchandise package, including a bag and eight new discs. 2013 grand prize will be announced soon. Events are also encouraged to offer an optional cash side pot for those who wish to participate, which is divided proportionally among the number of aces and/or metal hits.

Chelsea and Adam Call It Quits! Recap of Teen Mom 2 Season 3, Episode 5: "Second Chances"
We feel the same way about Chelsea Houska and Adam Lind's relationship that we feel about non-bedazzled Uggs. A mixture of love and horror. Where are the sparkles?! Gone guys, gone.
Despite the most beautiful promise ring in all the MTV Lands, Adam and Chelsea just aren't working out — and when Chels finally calls her man to discuss their relationship, he breaks up with her on the spot. Apparently, Adam is still peeved that Chelsea's dad, Papa Randilicious, kicked him to the curb before Baby Aubree's birthday, but what about that whole promise ring situation, buddy? Sob!
Chelsea is completely heartbroken by Adam's behavior, so she heads over to her dad's house to hash it out. Naturally, this girl is peeved that Randy was the catalyst for her breakup, but don't expect him to say sorry. In fact, Randy points out that Adam totally freeloaded off Chelsea while they were living together. Talk about a wakeup call!
Chelsea decides to distract herself from boy problems by getting a new dog, while Adam whiles away his days getting tattooed by a mysteriously bearded hillbilly. Sadly, Chels is so bummed by the breakup she has to miss her GED tests, but fear not. This gal is hiding an enormous brain underneath all that hair … we know she can do it!
