Naming Etiquette:What's In a Name?
Issues of baby etiquette can surface even before you give birth to your child, and one of the most important is naming etiquette. The name you choose will affect not only your child, but also everyone else—from friends to teachers to significant others—who has to say your child's name in the future. With that in mind, we have listed some of the most popular and effective naming strategies below.
For many years, "creative" child names such as Piper, Scout, Apple, and Phinnaeus were primarily the province of pretentious Hollywood actors. Since the American middle class has risen in affluence and feelings of self-consequence, however, there is really no reason for anyone to forego the pleasure of giving their child an artistic name.
The secret to "creating" a good name is to let your mind go completely blank, as though it is a clean, bare tablet unencumbered by intelligence or taste. Then, once your brain is utterly empty, name your child the first thing that pops into your head. Pear, January, Studebaker—the weirder the name, the greater its "artistic" statement.
Currently, the most fashionable naming strategy is to give your child a location rather than a name—Brooklyn, for example, or Ireland.
When picking a place-name, it is best to stick with first-world locations (Kuala Lumpur does not carry quite the same social cache as, say, Venice).
Ultimately, the point of a good place-name is to grant your child a sense of self-importance well before they've achieved anything on their own. With luck, your child will live up to this glamorous image, and one day may even outstrip their namesake in global notoriety.
Paris Hilton currently has a higher recognition factor among teenage Americans than does Paris, France.
If you want the comfort of a popular name but would like to add a splash of creativity, try taking a name that ends in Y and end it instead with EE. Ashlee, for instance, instead of Ashley. If you feel that this is not unique enough, go ahead and add more Es. There may be another Ashlee or two in your daughter's class, but she will most likely be the only Ashleeeee.
If you would like your child to become a stripper, it is best to pick pseudosexy names such as Misty, Savannah, Essence, or Cherry Pie. If you've already chosen a normal name but think you might want your child to be a stripper, you can always consider replacing the last vowel in the name with "ique." Monique and Angelique, for instance, make excellent stripper names, as does Larrique for a boy.
Adding French articles to American names—LaDonna, for instance, or DeShawn for a boy—has long been a way for everyday Americans to indicate a certain cosmopolitan sophistication. Since our break with the French over issues of foreign policy, however, such naming strategies have become less, shall we say, au courant. The good news is that these unpatriotic French articles are quickly being replaced by the addition of genuine American articles. Today, for instance, if you want your son to be very successful, it is an excellent idea to name him "The Donald" instead of just Donald.
There has never been a stripper named Eunice.
One time-tested way for young boys to build character is to be humbled and even, occasionally, physically assaulted by other kids. These experiences instill an inner resolve, a desire to escape or surpass one's peers that can ultimately result in great professional success. A good way to ensure that your son gets this kind of head start is to allow your wife to name him without any kind of masculine supervision. Aubrey, Tristan, and Remi are all good examples of fanciful names; Avery, Gideon, and Puck should also elicit a few blows to the head during your son's formative years.
Occasionally, new parents want a baby name that will be just plain annoying to friends, family, and nearly everyone else with whom your child comes into contact. In this case, it is a good idea to name your child after an already overexposed celebrity or literary figure. Holden, for instance, makes an excellent annoying boy name, as does Britney for a little girl.
Suppose that you are out at a dinner party full of prospective parents, and one of the other parents makes the mistake of letting an enticing prospective baby name slip. There are three questions to ask yourself when preparing to purloin the name:
1. Do you actually care about the individuals in question? You may have a few friends in common, but honestly, would it bother you at all to incur the wrath and lifetime enmity of these people? If not, go ahead and poach that name.
2. Can they be bought? It is possible that these people are in financial difficulty and could be bribed into giving up the name.
3. Would your child be able to "take" their child? Make an honest survey of your physical gifts as a couple—height, strength, punching power, etc.—and try to estimate how your child would one day fare in a physical altercation with his or her unwilling namesake. If the answer is "not well," you may want to consider a different name.
At least for the first few years, your baby's actual name will be almost irrelevant—she will be referred to instead by a variety of nicknames. There are reputations and fortunes to be made on baby nicknames that stick—Tiger Woods, for example, would probably not have a hundred-million-dollar Nike contract were he referred to as Eldrick—so do not take this task lightly.
The trap most parents fall into is relying on cliched nicknames, which should be avoided at all costs. You can begin your cliche cleansing by abolishing all uses of the word "Boo," whether in its singular, doubled, or compound forms. Boo, Boo-Boo, and Petey-Boo are all different and all equally lame.
Try also to stay away from the "Four Ps" of cliched nicknaming: Peanut, Pumpkin, Precious, and Princess.
Instead, see if you can come up with a nickname that is in some way indicative of your child's character: Gobbles, Screech, Pukie, The Little General, Sobs-a-Lot, and The Enemy of All Sleep are all good examples of personalized nicknames.
What If You Hate the Name?
When you dislike or are lukewarm about the name in question, a good way to avoid ill feelings is to utilize a pleasant but noncommittal response. A simple but not overwarm "all right," for instance, can deliver just the right mixture of support and ambivalence. Similar semisupportive phrases include "That works," "I could see that," and "Is that a family name?"
If the name is truly ghastly, you may want to opt for a more obviously double-edged response, such as "interesting" or, in dire circumstances, "wow." To anyone who actually wants your opinion, this makes it fairly clear that you loathe the name. But for those who are simply determined to go with a bad name, such a response allows you to avoid giving offense while nonetheless withholding any real approbation.
When both members of a couple keep their family names, there will inevitably be a debate as to what the baby's last name should be. The most obvious compromise is to hyphenate the last name, but this is a good time to remember that baby etiquette extends also to the babies themselves and that it is ultimately the child who will grow up and have to fill out DMV forms with a name like Anastasia Bugatti-Saperstein, have Bugatti-Saperstein on the back of her basketball jersey, and perhaps most difficult of all, have to introduce herself as "Bugatti-Saperstein" thousands upon thousands of times. Sometimes it's best just to pick a name and go with it.

Heineken Cup Pool 6: Munster score five tries in Thomond Park thrashing
By Rob Lancaster. Last Updated: 08/12/13 11:45pm
Munster took over top spot in Pool 6 of the Heineken Cup with a convincing 36-8 victory over previous leaders Perpignan at Thomond Park.
The two-time champions of Europe broke the deadlock after just two minutes as they eased to a 22-0 advantage by the break, leaving them another half to try and cross again to clinch a crucial bonus point.
They had to wait until the 65th minute to get it, their pack pushing to such an extent that Perpignan were eventually forced to give away a penalty try.
James Coughlan added a fifth in the dying stages before Perpignan had the last word, Joffrey Michel bagging a consolation just before the final whistle.
Beset by injuries and denied the services of ex-Munster centre Lifiemi Mafi due to suspension, the Top 14 side always looked to be more concerned with damage limitation than claiming a rare away win. To that extent, they did themselves few favours when they were breached in the opening exchanges.
Sliding over
The ball was worked back against the grain from a line-out to create the space, and some crisp passing quickly led to Sean Dougall sliding over just to the left of the posts. Ian Keatley knocked over the easy conversion before also adding a penalty, making it 10-0 after as many minutes.
Such was Munster's dominance they twice turned down kickable penalties to keep ball in hand, their aggressive approach being rewarded when prop Dave Kilcoyne burrowed his way over from close range.
Perpignan did attempt to muster a response, only to shoot themselves in the foot when a turnover on the halfway line led to Keith Earls scoring.
The winger took an offload out of a ruck and then burst clear down the right touchline to record his eighth try in the competition. He also left Keatley a tough kick from the touchline, though the fly-half still managed to make it.
Having missed a penalty attempt on the stroke of half time, visiting captain James Hook finally got his team on the board four minutes into the second period.
They thought they had a try of their own too when Sofiane Guitoune rolled over, only for his effort to be ruled out as the TMO judged the final pass from Luke Charteris had been forward. The Wales lock would have scored himself had it not been for a fabulous tap-tackle by flanker Dougall.
Instead it was Munster who scored next, referee Greg Garner becoming so tired of Perpignan's infringements at the breakdown that he not only awarded a penalty try but also sent replacement prop Kisi Pulu to the sin-bin.
That seemed to be the end of the scoring until the final minute saw both teams grab tries; Munster's fifth of the afternoon was all about power, as their forwards grinded away to allow No 8 Coughlan to fall over the line.
Perpignan then perhaps gave a sign of what might come in the return fixture next weekend, some neat hands out wide on the left putting winger Michel in at the corner. They should be a much, much tougher proposition on home soil.

Now Is The Time.
There's more to ending gun violence than repeating "they deserve a vote" over and over again. The measures on this graphic must be taken. It's that simple. Nobody's 2nd Amendment rights are in danger here. The government is well within it's constitutional realm to determine what types of weapons and ammo we own and use. Furthermore, the government is not stepping on our rights by dictating the terms of how we come to own guns and ammo.
Don't take my word for it though: ask Tea Party favorite Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.
I believe in the 2nd Amendment as much as the next person, unless that next person happens to be Ted Nugent or Wayne Lapierre. I own a weapon for home protection, and I know how to use it. However, I don't see the need to own a weapon that the police don't even have access to. It's ridiculous to own such a weapon, and I'm a firm believer that the government should ban the hell out of these types of guns, along with their insidious buddy, the hollow point bullet.
There is probably very little chance that these regulations are going to be passed. I would encourage you though, to contact your congressman or senator, and give them your opinion. If we put enough pressure on them, then maybe, just maybe we can make this happen.

The Republican And Tea Party Response To SOTU 2013
In case you missed it, here's a summary of what Rand "If I were president" Paul, and Marco "drink of water boss?" Rubio had to say last night:
State Of The Union Address – 2013
You can also go here for full text of the speech.
What are your thoughts on Obama's SOTU? I have to admit, I only caught the last half hour last night. However, I did get a chance to read the full text of his speech this morning. All in all, I thought it was a very moving address. Here are some points that caught my attention:
1. POTUS finished his speech with an extremely emotional bang. His call for tougher gun control regulations were punctuated with recognition of several victims of gun violence. After each name was called, he implored that each victim deserves a vote. Even John Boehner rose to his feet to applaud. However, I couldn't help but feel that this was nothing more than emotional grandstanding. Obama never once mentioned an actual passing of a gun control bill, he merely called for some form of legislation to be voted upon. He knows full well that nothing will pass through the NRA controlled congress. His rhetoric did make me tear up a little though.
2. Climate change. Yes Mr. President, our climate has changed. You're a little late, but welcome to the conversation. For the sake of every living thing on this planet. I implore you to lead the way in reducing our carbon footprint. Climate change is an issue that you should be talking about every single day until something is done.
3. Raising the minimum wage. This is also long overdue. There should be no such thing as the working poor. I like the idea of tying the minimum wage to the cost of living index. Make it happen.
4. Improving infrastructure. Again, long overdue. Want to put people back to work? Want to attract more jobs and boost interstate commerce? Improve our decaying infrastructure. It's a no brainer.
5. Women do deserve equal pay: Twist some arms and make this happen.
6. Cyber security. This makes me little nervous. I can't help but feel that more of our civil liberties are going to be stripped under the guise of national security and cyber security. It seemed as this part of his speech was pointed more toward hacktivists such as Anonymous, and less toward global terrorist.
7. Transparency of national security. Obama tells us that congress is informed of every program and action taken by our security and intelligence agencies. He also assured that the public would be kept in the know. This was a pants on fire moment for the president. I'm skeptical, as is a majority of the country. Let's get a look at that kill list Mr. President!
8. Cut Spending, close tax loopholes. I agree, but why fuck with Medicare?
9. Obama seemed more bi-partisan. He worked very hard to remind everyone last night that we're in this for the long haul. He seemed to throw a little something out to both parties.
10. What the hell is the deal with Joe Biden's eyes? I love me some Joe Biden: However, he looked downright scary last night.
The whole time I was watching the speech, Biden's lack of pupil visibility was freaking me and my partner out. It was very disturbing.
Bonus: Boehner seemed to be an even higher shade of orange.
Over all, I think it was one of the president's best speeches. He was conciliatory, and he was passionate about issues that are in the fore front of the county's collective mind. As with every SOTU, I can only hope there's more action than lip service.
Delusional Indeed.
Still think that Wal-mart AR-15 is needed to fight off tyranny? Just to be clear, there is no fucking way that an army of pseudo Rambos is ever going to fight off the most well trained, well armed military the world has ever seen. Seriously, just do us all a favor, and stop frothing about your 2nd Amendment rights. We do have the right to bear arms, but state and federal government has the authority to dictate what we can own, and what we have to do to obtain them. Ask Justice Scalia: He's the one who made that statement back in 2008.
Besides, if y'all want to keep up the bravado of over throwing the government, you're liable to find yourself on the business end of a Flying killer robot. Believe me folks, a lack of AR-15's and 30 round magazines are the least of our worries.
Drone Wars.
The Constitution is indeed under attack from the White House. However, in spite of the rhetoric from the guns nuts, It's the 5th and 14th amendments we need to worry about, not the 2nd.
The memos regarding the targeting of Americans suspected of being members of Al-Qaida are not only disturbing, they're down right ass puckering. The White House is insisting that Obama has the right to play judge, jury, and executioner in these cases. Our right to due process is of no consequence. It's bad enough that we utilize flying killer robots to kill innocents in other countries: now, Obama is insisting that he can turn them on us with absolutely no disclosure of proof, no arrest, no trial, no anything. All it takes is whatever file our crack intelligence agencies happen to lay on Obama's desk.
The drone program isn't a war on terror, it's a war on liberty, it's a war on human rights. The drone program is the resurgence of Murder Incorporated. The drone program isn't justice, it's White House directed vigilantism, it's fascism disguised as the war on terror.
What's nearly as disturbing as this total lack of regard for our right of due process, is the lack of protest from our media, or seemingly any liberal for that matter. We should be as outraged over this as we were over the transgressions perpetrated by the Bush Administration. There was a lot of back lash over the imprisonment and torture of people who were deemed as threats to national security under Bush's watch: Why is Obama seemingly getting a pass on this policy, which is tantamount to scenarios straight out of a Judge Dredd comic? When will this country have a government that actually works for and with the people?
What we have, and have had all along, is a government that works above the people. It's always been that way, and it will always be that way. The fact that our president can play judge, jury, and executioner when ever he wants, Constitution be damned, is more than enough proof that we don't matter. All that matters is profit and power. If you get in the way of that, be prepared to get a drone up your ass, with no questions asked.
Sums It Up For Me.
A tip of the tinfoil hat to The Other 98% for sharing this. It would be nice to have a party of which corporations are not their most important constituents. Radical right or moderate right really isn't much of a choice.

In a column tonight, he writes that Homer's road ERA (2.41) is second-best in all of baseball, and he would start Bailey as the second starter in the playoffs to take advantage of that.
I have been harping on this for a few weeks, but I'll repeat it: if the Reds don't take advantage of this, I'd personally rather have Leake start in Cincinnati than Bailey. However, I think Bailey starting on the road is the optimal situation, as Cueto has a 2.80 ERA in Cincinnati (the presumption here is that Latos is lights out in San Francisco so he should start game one, though one can't argue with Cueto either).

Estero incorporation vote bill passes Florida House panel
ESTERO - Estero residents are one step closer to casting a vote about their community's future.
The state House local and federal affairs committee unanimously approve House Bill 1373 sponsored by state Rep. Ray Rodrigues, R-Estero. The local bill would allow Estero resident to begin the incorporation process.
The bill creates a mechanism for incorporation, includes boundaries and allows the community to put the issue on the ballot in November. If approved, the village of Estero would be created as of Dec. 31, 2014. The reference to village is historical in nature; it has no legal difference to be a city or town.
The bill needs approval by the state House and Senate, as well as the governor's signature, before it goes into effect. Once the governor signs off on the bill, the incorporation issue would be be placed on the 2014 ballot.

I'm looking for a partner, someone to be out...
I'm looking for a partner, someone to be out in the world with. I enjoy going to hockey games and exploring. I work a lot, and my career is a bit of a priority right now, but I'd love to have someone to share my free time with. I'm good on my own at home, netflix always has something, I'm a bit of a gamer, but it doesn't keep me from the real world. I'd like to see more concerts, find more hole-in-the-wall bars and cafes, I love exploring and trying new things. I've really enjoy kayaking the few times I've tried it, it's about time to get my own. I used to mountain bike a lot and am ready to get back into it when I find some trails. Someone that would help push me outdoors and into more new activities would be fun. I'm always game to try something new. Anything about hobbies, just ask. I grew up in Fairbanks, Alaska, and have moved around a bit for the last 10 years. I partially have a stint in the army to thank for that, and a little bit of wanderlust. Something that keeps me away from home is the short riding season. I love being on my motorcycle. One of my favorites runs is the twisties between home and Prescott. Jerome is a great ride, too.
Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Travel/Sightseeing , Video games , Watching sports
Hockey, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I have Cats
I live with my two old-man cats. They're 9 and 13. I grew up with dogs, and love them, too.
Some other viewpoint
New to Phoenix, spend most of my free time around the west side, but I love the Handlebar in Tempe. I try to be out on my Honda Shadow as much as I can, I'll take the long way to the movies if it means I can get in a good ride on the way.
I don't watch much TV. My favorite show ever is Deadwood, and I really dig Wilfred and Futurama. A few favorite movies off the top of my head: 12 monkeys, 5th element, the sandlot. I enjoy comedy, too. Music comes down to my mood, metal to pop.
I love hockey and I've been a Canucks fan forever. I see the Coyotes(my 2nd team)a few times a month during the season. I spend a lot of time out riding, but bike night, isn't for me. I'd rather play cards against humanity or poker with friends.
I'm a reformed comic book nerd. I love the Loeb and Sale Batman stuff. I like the old run of Deadpool. I don't read as many books as I used to. A couple favorites over the years are The Thin Red Line, The Great Gatsby and Max Brooks' zombie books.

Lyric Meaning
Here's that pic you wanted… (You Perv!!)
John Curtis Holmes (8.8.1944 – 3.13.88) was one of the most prolific male porn stars in history. Throughout the 1970s and early 1980s, he dominated the industry with appearances in 2,274 adult loops & feature flicks. Toward the end of his life, Holmes became notorious for his drug addiction and involvement in the 1981 Wonderland murders. Never a big fan of safe sex, Holmes eventually succumbed to complications caused by AIDS.
Worth noting: This is just the second time the 'N-word' appears on a Beastie Boys track. The first occurrence was also in this song and was delivered by Q-Tip, as well.

Crysis 3 Can Be Swampy Green And Murky
News collectors VG247 have a bunch of Crysis 3 footage, which I have cheerfully reblogged below. Producer-man Michael Read has a bit to say about it, too, explaining what makes that section ' Swamp ' unique. Well, it's swampy green and might murky, for a start. But also you get to kill men! Oh. Well, I am sure there is other stuff. Looks awesome, actually, but I am clearly Crytek's target audience: someone who looks forward to whispering MAXIMUM ****NEY as my battle chum burbles in my ear. And just look at it!

This is a nice blush that blends to a pretty basic pink shade. I'm not thrilled with the lift-off top but the staying power is pretty good and you certainly can't beat the price!

This is a pretty. I was curious but didn't figure the quality would be great, but I was wrong there, that's for sure. This mosaic blush makes for a gorgeous natural pink flush. It has the slightest touch of shimmer that makes the color come to life but it doesn't look shimmery on...if that makes sense *heh*
The mosaic combines warm and cool tones to make this come together as a pretty neutral color that *should* work on anyone..or at least most people. It has good pigment. Not the softest blush in the world but still better than I expected.
I already own a TON of pink blushes...love them LOL but I'm not sure if this is one that I would go out and repurchase but it is nice. For the sake of arguement we'll say yes. continued >>

I love this. It is a mosaic blush with such a slight shimmer that you cannot really detect on your skin but it looks so beautiful on. I am an NW20 and this gives me one of the most natural flushes ever. It's really silky and lasts all day on my skin. I bought it because I was having a bad day and I was in the drugstore looking to pick up something as a treat to myself. I never thought I would like this so much and that it would be such a great quality item. It looks much better on my skin that it does in that crappy package. It came with a brush that I threw out the minute the package was opened. I use a regular blush brush to apply. This is a great value and a really flattering blush that cannot be beat for the price!

I think it is great all the reviews on this has been positive and I agree with all the reviews! I too, am suprised that I like this product. I am not a fan of the New York line...my motto has always been "you get what you pay for" but with this, you get more than what you pay for! I have fair skin with yellow undertones and the assortment of colors works well with my skin! The color goes on nice and smooth and they better keep this product around for a long time or I will be royally pissed!

A lovely blush that gives a nice natural flushed look. It doesn't look cakey at the end of the day and even seems to help control oil. Will definitely repurchase, although it will be a while before I do. . . the compact is huge!

I've been wanting to try this for what feels like forever! So I finally gave in to my lemming today at Ulta! I love how natural this looks on my face (NC30)! Gives me a great outdoorsy flush! You get a huge amount for super cheap! Notice how this has the same pink shades as Neutrogena's mosaic blush, and it's half the price! This is just another one of the great drugstore makeup items I've been finding lately! Makes me feel so silly for being the high end makeup snob I was starting to become!

I've been raving about this product on the boards for ages and didn't realise that I hadn't reviewed it. This is a fantastic d/s find, so cheap and yet such good quality. This gives a beautiful punchy pop of colour to cheeks (I'm pale skinned and it looks great). It is quite pigmented so be light-handed with the application. A definite must-have for everyone, I really hope they bring these out in more colours, I'd definitely get them all!

Great product at a great price. Certainly recommended to all! Such a pretty pink Dandelion flush (I compare all pink products to that one) at a fraction of the price. Last on my combo skin as well. I think I'll try the other ones as well.

alright! i agree with the previous posts. beauties! i was about to drop over $30 on certain alternatives and picked up this little number for $2.99 canadian! haha! i love the light pink in the mosaic - if i end up going too bright, this allows me to tone it down a bit - very healthy wind-blown look.

This is the most natural pink blush I've ever used. It gives me such a natural looking flush and is very flattering on my NC35 skin. It is surprisingly pigmented for a product under $5. Just a tiny tap with my brush is all it takes for all-day wear. I would definitely buy this again (but it will probably take me 3 years to use it up because it's pigmented and you get a large amount).

Greenwich resident Dustin S. Howell asked the judge for a "chance" and a "shot" at out-patient substance abuse treatment.
"I know I don't deserve it," the 27-year-old defendant said Wednesday.
Instead of out-patient treatment, Howell was ordered to spend four to six months in a community-based corrections facility (CBCF).
Huron County Common Pleas Judge Jim Conway told the defendant he sounds like he's interested in turning his life around so he could benefit from time in a CBCF, a form of prison which focuses on substance abuse treatment and education. The judge also said Howell could learn some life skills, including anger management, at the locked-down facility.
As part of his three years of intense probation, Howell was fined $500 and must reimburse the Huron County Sheriff's Office $80 to cover the cost of drug testing.
The defendant, whose driver's license was suspended for six months, also must work toward completing his GED. Howell said he has to retake the math portion of the test.
Earlier in Wednesday's sentencing hearing, Huron County Assistant Prosecutor Dina Shenker said Howell is willing to seek treatment for a "significant drug problem," which dates back to when he was a juvenile. She said the state couldn't recommend out-patient treatment because it's likely Howell would return to the same lifestyle that led to a "fairly lengthy" juvenile and misdemeanor record, which includes numerous probation violations.
Howell is serving a 180-day sentence for a domestic violence conviction through Norwalk Municipal Court, according to jail records. In early March, he pleaded no contest to the Feb. 18 incident and was fined $200.
"He's missed the birth of his child. He's never met his child. This is a huge wake-up call for him," Huron County Public Defender David Longo said.
On July 2, Howell pleaded guilty in common pleas court to attempted illegal conveyance of contraband into a detention facility and a separate charge of possession of oxycodone.
He turned himself into the Huron County Jail on several warrants Feb. 11. Shenker had said the defendant smuggled several pills into the facility by placing them in his body and then hid the drugs under the bed in his cell. A corrections officer seized the pills as evidence.
The oxycodone conviction is for a Feb. 18 incident when police responded to a domestic disturbance at Howell's residence. Shenker had said there was an argument with his wife over Howell's drug use.

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. He submitted a forgettable first half against the younger, quicker, more agile Thunder. But, when the third quarter started, the captain stamped his imprint on the game, ripping off seven straight points (a fallaway, a drive to the hole and a 3-pointer) to push Boston's lead to 8. It was one of those stream-of-consciousness offensive explosions that provided a flashback for Kendrick Perkins, the former Celtics center who now sets bruising screens for Oklahoma City. "Seen it before," Perkins said. "Hundreds of times. Paul can score. He'll always be able to score." In the final quarter, Pierce strung together another 3-pointer, a pair of free throws off an acrobatic spin move, then absolutely schooled the overmatched Kevin Martin to push the Celtics in front 88-76. It was the kind of matchup Boston's coaching staff is wo...

Combine over 1000 incredible acts, 60 stages, a beautiful Hungarian island and revellers from around the globe and what do you get? Sziget, winner of the 'Best European Major Festival' award and the cultural and music destination of the summer!
Now in its 20th year, Sziget definitely has developed from the relatively low student event that it started out as to the definititve European rock festival that it is currently renowned for. It attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year and it is widely regarded as Europe's version of 'Burning Man' festival. The festival takes place on an island in Danube, right in the centre of Budapest, so is very easy to get to, but, our favourite mode of transport is the Sziget Express - a party wagon packed with DJs and bars that runs from the Netherlands!
This year the festival will take place from August 6th to 13th and boasts a stellar line-up with acts from around the globe all descending on Hungary for an unforgettable week! Karoly Gerendai, main organizer of the event said, 'this year we also have to show to the whole world that the Best European Major Festival title came to the right place, so besides the multi-artistic and unique spirit of Sziget, we also present great bands that are trademarks of the international festival scene.' The talent is diverse but the names that have caught our attention are; Snoop Dog, David Guetta, LMFAO, The Ting Tings, The Killers, The Vaccines and The Horrors - though there are tonne of other great act that are worth checking out. Keep up with all the new acts being announced at; http://www.sziget.hu/festival_english
Once you're ready for a break from the tunes (if that's possible) you can enjoy a tonne of pretty random activites you wouldn't normally expect at a music festival; belly dancing, bungy jumping, Hungarian language lessons, swimming (the festival has a pool - awesome!), karaoke, football and movies....so there's no way possible that you'll be bored!
Now, we wouldn't normally talk about the food at a festival as, let's be honest, who cares?! But, there is a tonne of partying to be had so you will get hungry and the food and drink options are so ridiculous that we simply had to share! Vegetarians will be well catered for with hummus in the Bio-Vega bar, vegetable grill, roasted vegetarian sausage, vegetable-spit, fried-roasted pasta, spinach and vegetable hash. If that doesn't float you're boat or you're after something a little healther (NB: sarcasm) you can choose from pizzas, fried dough, grilled foods, pancakes, hawk-fried potato, Churros, New York hot-dog, fried dough (not 100% sure what is), as well as a wide selection of seafood and international cuisines with Arab, Greek, Chinese, Transylvanian, Indian specialities. Moreover, the festival boasts 12 taverns, a sausage pitch and 80 beer-pubs, so I think they've got the food and drink sitch sorted.
We love that this festival doesn't take itself too seriously and that, coupled with the killer line-up and incredible location, is more than enough reson for us to attend. When Nostalgia pulled out Sziget proudly boasted on its website 'Nostalgia stays home. Cool bands come instead.' Love it! Go there!

i dunno if i am.. i got 3 versions done solid and i kinda want a new idea you know ?
hey are you still working on the mod?
dont look so glumm.. if ya wanna play. .ill play.
uh huh..
I heard they were soon coming out with something called Quake II. Maybe you could do some work for that when it comes out in 1992. I like the graphics. Well, compared to staring at a pile of rancid dog crap. And the physic models are taken from real life. Well, not real life but close. Well, not even close. You do know that this is planet Earth right? Good try but I think playing Super Mario Brothers on my Nintendo (8 bit) might be more fun.
Just kidding!
I love it! Keep up the good work and make some more models soon.
server is up ip is same as always 184.108.40.206
post time you want to play here or send to me at firstname.lastname@example.com
happy fragging!
this mod isnt dead and we are still working on ezq1.3, im completly recoding it and the skins will be altered a bit for team deathmatch.

Famous Late-Date Rarity
The elusive nature of the 1929 was recognized at an early date and its prestige was probably even higher in the 1940s than it is today. The first auction appearance we have been able to locate was in lot 61 of Sale 416 (Morgenthau, 6/1940), which realized $61. Thus, the coin sold for more than three times face value only 11 years after it was minted in an economy that was still feeling the effects of the Great Depression. Auction prices have continued to rise over the years, and the pinnacle in price for an MS64+ example was in our 2011 FUN Signature (lot 5320), a coin that realized $63,250.
This exceptional piece displays vibrant satiny mint luster and sharply detailed design elements throughout. The bright yellow-gold surfaces exhibit a few highlights of rose and are completely free of the copper spots seen on some examples of this date. The surfaces are remarkably free of all but the most insignificant contact marks, suggestive of an even higher grade. Visual appeal is tremendous. Population: 90 in 64 (12 in 64+), 31 finer (12/13).

Mounting Option #1
Mounting Option #2
Bring your artwork to life with the stylish lines and added depth of an acrylic print. Your image gets printed directly onto the back of a 1/4" thick sheet of clear acrylic.
The image is the art - it doesn't get any cleaner than that!
All acrylic prints ship within 3 - 4 business days and arrive "ready to hang" with four aluminum mounting posts (Option #1) or hanging wire (Option #2).
The high gloss of the acrylic sheet complements the rich colors of any image to produce stunning results.
There are two different ways to mount your acrylic print.
Option #1 (Mounting Posts) - Attach your print to your wall with four aluminum mounting posts. The cylindrical cap of each mounting post can be removed, allowing you to thread a small screw along the center axis of the of post and into the wall. When you're finished, simply reattached each cap, and you're done. The mounting posts act as stand-offs and keep your print separated from the wall by 1". All of the required mounting hardware (i.e. posts, screws, and wall anchors) is included with your print. Click here for mounting details.
Option #2 (Hanging Wire) - With this option, your acrylic print is attached to a 1/4" thick black board which has a wooden frame and hanging wire attached to the back. There are no metal mounting posts at the corners. Simply put a nail in your wall, hang your print from the hanging wire, and you're done. Due to the thickness of the black board and mounting frame, your print is separated from the wall by 1.50" Click here for mounting details.
Inspired by Michelle Obama at the Sate Dinner
LITTLE GIRLS I am a first generation Mexican American and self-taught artist. I was born and raised in East LA. After living in New York and San Francisco for a 10-year period, I moved back to Los Angeles and in the summer of 1998, I started my series called Little Girls. The idea stems from a drawing I completed 27 years ago while in high school. My Little Girls are a reflection of myself; they are simple, colorful, silly, and each has a little twist to her. I use mostly acrylic and pencil on 4�x6� canvas. Why not a �little boy?� With a little boy I feel restricted to what I can imagine. With a little girl I feel freedom, joy, and an endless sense of possibility. It�s like playing with dolls and I get to play...

Columns. While it may seem like a good idea to a graphic designer, the idea of newspaper-style columns strikes fear in the hearts of themers everywhere. In particular, you may run into an instance where you need a list view to be A-L in the first column, then M-Z in the second column. I'll walk you through a method for doing just that, using a little PHP. Note that this is for Drupal 7, but is easily adaptable for Drupal 6.
I will note first that there are a couple other quickie options that might work for your situation.
2. There IS a CSS3 multicolumn solution, but it is largely unsupported. Currently it is only supported by Firefox 1.5+ and Safari 3.
So, eventually, there will be a simple CSS solution, but, for the time being, the cleanest option is server-side, using PHP.
In my example here, we'll look at theming a list view to have multiple columns.
Say you have a view with a some items that we want to display in two columns. Views generates HTML that looks something like this:
Here's what that looks like just floating each row to the left. Looks like columns, but they are not in the order we want.
Instead, we want something that looks like this:
To make this themable with CSS, we need the markup to look like this instead:
The solution to building this markup is with PHP in a views template. The next trick is to choose the right one! Editing your view, click on the Advanced tab, then on Theme: Information. We want to use the Display output template. So, for example, mine is called: views-view–columns–page.tpl.php.
First, we'll make a preprocess function in our template.php file specific to that views template file that finds the number of view results and the halfway point.
This first function here is a helper function for Drupal 7 so you can add preprocess functions to specific views on the fly:
name)) {
$function = 'THEME_preprocess_views_view__'.$vars['view']->name;
if (function_exists($function)) {
And here's the preprocess function:
result) / 2) + 1);
Once you have determined the $half variable, which is row number that starts the second column.
So let's add the markup to the views tpl file.
Replace the lines:
s+<', $rows);
// add the

Lives up to expectationsby String2Sell From ARVADA, CO
I have not got to use it with a real ball yet. I have it set up in our basement for now (This colorado snow and freezing weather would just ruin it outside) and we are using foams against it. It is real ice, the net wasn't as hard to get on as you would think. It is just the last 2 or three, but if you get the corners in first and have 2 people working it at the same time it goes up in a snap! So far so good, really enjoying it!Pros:
Couldn't give it a 5 star because I haven't used a real ball on it yet!
-Easy AssemblyCons:
-Bounces back enough
-Aesthetically appealing
-Great for stick skills
I think that if it wasn't the elastic bands that held the net to the frame, but instead some springs, i think that it would have a longer life. Have't test it yet, just an idea.
