Forza Motorsport 5 - IndyCar E3 Trailer
Open-wheel racing comes to Forza as this trailer teases one of the IndyCars that will be playable in Forza Motorsport 5.

This game is looking great, I can't wait to play it, certainly getting the One over the Playstation.
I hope they establish good online play, I loved the drifiting and drags in the last two Forza's
Does anyone know if you can actually choose which car grade you want to race properly in career mode?
I hate it when you play some F block races but then because you level up you never get offered F races any more.
I like to do all races of a series and then move onto the next one, but it is kind of underwhelming if you just have to do them under event list one after the other.
Best racing franchise ever created. I'll get an xbox for this and sports games. Everything else on PC.
This is the reason why I would and will buy a Xbox ONE! All hail Microsoft!
Great game. It's just a shame it's on the wrong console!
this game is so gonna kik ass !!! the drivatar is amazing in terms of innovation the graphics are amazing O.o i just cant wait till november 5th
No extras just racing and fancy AI, they said they ran out of time. All that is coming in FM6, which will make peoples hearts stop I would imagine.
While the inclusion of IZOD is neat and a good start, I really want F1. And its too bad its caught up in licensing.
Atleast XBOX ONE supports Logitech G27 ?
Looks awesome shame about no weather, night and auction house though
now they are getting open wheelers? too late, i just jump ship to ps4
Not bad.
Cool cool. I just want to know if it will have weather and day/ night cycles.
Microsoft is not the one building the game -_-
Show some respect for the developers.
Microsoft publish and fund this project for Turn 10. Your comment is really stupid.

Doctor: Long road looms for paralyzed boxer Paul Williams
Former welterweight champion Paul Williams, 30, paralyzed from the waist down during a motorcycle crash in suburban Atlanta on Sunday, is one of approximately 270,000 Americans living with a spinal cord injury (SCI), according to the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center, headquartered at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
A Marietta, Ga., police department statement released Tuesday said Williams had been driving his motorcycle "at a high rate of speed …too fast for conditions" and was transported to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital in serious condition.
According to WXIA-TV Atlanta, Williams is scheduled to have surgery Thursday to stabilize his upper spine.
VIDEO: Williams vows to walk again
USA TODAY's Michelle Healy spoke with Emory University neurology and physiology researcher Keith Tansey, director of Spinal Cord Injury Research at Shepherd Center's Crawford Research Institute in Atlanta about the stabilization procedure and the challenges treating spinal cord injuries.
Q: What happens during the initial days of assessment and treatment?
A: Especially when dealing with a car or motorcycle accident, there are a spectrum of injuries to consider. The initial clinical examination may not give a full picture of the spinal cord damage. An assessment done by imaging, such as an MRI, is very helpful.
Q: There are reports that Williams severed his spinal cord after falling on his back and head when he was thrown from his motorcycle. How common is that type of severe damage?
A: It's relatively rare. About half of spinal cord injuries are considered complete injuries — that is there is no sensation, no voluntary movement below the level of injury. But only about a third of that half are actual cutting through of the spinal cord.
Q: In general, what are the chances of a patient with a spinal cord injury regaining movement?
A: The outcome depends on the severity of the injury. Fundamentally, the problem is that the spinal cord doesn't fill up the entire vertebral column. When we grow, the bones grow more than the spinal cord. So if you have an injury in your neck or your torso, you can damage the spinal cord, but if you have an injury in your low spine, or pelvis, you may damage nerve roots and not actually the spinal cord itself. It depends on the level of injury.
Q: It was reported that the boxer's surgery Thursday will aim to stabilize the healthy upper half of his spine by putting a protective wall around it. Will that help the lower half, as well?
A: The spinal cord lives inside a canal inside the vertebral column, and the best hope for any tissue that's still there is to have the bony house in which it lives be mechanically stable. It's entirely possible that there was a lot of crushing with the forces that went on. If there's crushing and the spine shattered some, that may be what's being discussed in terms of building a cage to re-establish the space for the spinal cord for the vertebral stability.
Q: We hear all the time about new research and therapies to treat spinal cord injuries. Where is the research on repairing a severed spinal cord?
A: There are not currently any clinically applied methods to mend or repair the spinal cord. There are methods used in research animals that have had partial success but nothing so helpful as to justify a clinical trial yet. In China, some centers open the spinal cord surgically to let out dead tissue under pressure to ensure that still viable tissue continues to get good blood flow, but that procedure has not been studied or carried out here in the U.S. There is some hope that cell replacement therapies like the recently discontinued Geron trial of stem cell transplantation could help with spinal cord tissue repair, but this has not yet been demonstrated either.
Q: What advice do you have for families and loved ones of patients facing this kind of injury?
A: When talking to families right after a complete spinal cord injury, you have to prepare them for the worst and tell them there's a 90% chance there won't be a recovery. But you also have to be honest and say there is a 10% chance of recovery, and someone's got to be in that 10%. These patients have a long way ahead of them. A big part of it is education. A big part is getting your head around it.
People sometimes find that their purpose was to be an inspiration to others or to pursue a different adventure in life. I have spinal cord injury patients who scuba dive, rock climb, ski. You don't necessarily have to live a different life, but you have to live life differently.

Product description
Troy linked Greece and Rome. It was once the subject of the greatest of Greek poems and the mother city of the Romans. It gave the Romans a place in the mythical past of the Greeks, it gave Greeks a way of approaching Rome, and it gave the emperor Augustus, descendant of Aeneas, a suitably elevated ancestry. In this book Andrew Erskine examines the role and meaning of Troy in the changing relationship between Greeks and Romans, as Rome is transformed from a minor Italian city into a Mediterranean superpower. In contrast to earlier studies the emphasis is on the Greek rather than the Roman perspective. The book seeks to understand the significance of Rome's Trojan origins for the Greeks by considering the place of Troy and Trojans in Greek culture. It moves beyond the more familiar spheres of art and literature to explore the countless, overlapping, local traditions, the stories that cities told about themselves, a world often neglected by scholars.

Review quote
The strengths of this book are its nuances, its marshalling of evidence and its subtle understanding of the problem of identity. There are numerous illuminating details of argument ... We learn a good deal about views of Troy beyond Athens, Alexander and Rome, which is refreshing and helpful, and Erskine's account of Rome's interest in Ilion itself is a textbook analysis of identity politics. This will be an interesting book for scholars, useful to students and accessible even to sixth formers. The Journal of Classics Teaching

Health & Pregnancy
Life With Twins: Maureen Downey's Story
Maureen Downey and her husband, Bo Emerson, conceived twins Rebecca and Joey with help from IVF 10 years ago. The couple, of Decatur, Ga., had two children conceived without assisted reproductive technology, but when the couple tried for a third child, Downey went through several miscarriages, so they turned to IVF. Maureen was 42 when they had two embryos transferred. They weren't trying to have twins, but they liked that possibility.
Downey spoke to WebMD about her experiences:
I was hopeful that both would take. I was quite happy with the prospect of twins. I didn't ask for two, and I didn't go into it thinking I'd have twins.
I think it's different if you have never had any children. If this may be your one shot, I could certainly see why people would be interested in twins. But because this would be baby number 3 and our goal was three children, it wasn't that I went in there thinking, 'Gee, I really want to have twins.'
The pregnancy was uneventful ... by that I mean that I was not on bed rest. But I did leave work earlier than I did with the other two [children], and I had a series of things I'd never had before including I had heartburn, which I'd never had in my life and I thought I was having a heart attack the first time I ever had it. And I had all sorts of minor aches and pains -- collectively, in that last month and a half of twin pregnancy, I found it much, much rougher and tiring [than her previous single-baby pregnancies.]
Rebecca and Joey were born at 39 weeks -- nearly full term -- in a scheduled C-section. Downey's uterus didn't contract properly afterward, causing her to bleed.
The aftermath of birth was more complicated than I had expected. I think I lost a third of my blood from hemorrhaging after they were born. I went home incredibly weak and anemic.
In terms of recovering energy and stamina, that was a full-year process.
Before the twins were born, Downey and Emerson had prepped the twins' nursery based on what they thought they would need.

Register now for our GamesBeat 2015 event, Oct. 12-Oct.13, where we'll explore strategies in the new world of gaming. Sixense Entertainment said today that it is creating a wireless version of its motion-sensing controls for video games. The Los Gatos, Calif.-based company has been developing its magnet-based motion-control system since 2007, and it cut a deal a couple of years ago with game-gadget maker Razer to develop the Hydra motion-sensing game controls. Now Sixense plans to create its own Sixense-branded wireless system for gamers. "We're excited to finally provide a wireless solution that addresses the needs of both consumers and developers," said Amir Rubin, the cofounder of Sixense, in a statement. "The ecosystem around gaming and virtual reality has grown dramatically, making now the perfect time to announce our new consumer product and direct-to-developer dev kits." Sixense hasn't disclosed how many of its products have sold, but it says that the demand for Razer's Hydra has exceeded supply. Sixense believes its motion-control system, which enables you to manipulate things in a digital world by moving your arms around, will work well with the Oculus Rift virtual reality game goggles. That product will work best with a wireless system, Sixense said. For now, Sixense is creating a development kit so that developers can make games that take advantage of the system. Then it will work on the consumer version. The wireless controller will work with the Oculus Rift and with Hydra-based content.

Lets Chat
Before attending law school, I was a special education teacher and professional counselor/treatment manager on a psychiatric hospital in Dallas. I am now with a firm practicing school law and government affairs. I consider myself to be many things - a few off the top of my head, and in no particular order: loyal, romantic, respectful, laid back, passionate, ambitious, and non-pretentious. A few of my favorite things include spending time with family and friends, road trips out west, cooking, photography (love black and white), reading, hiking, and watching movies. I've done the club scene, and though I enjoy it from time to time, it is not the mainstay of my weekends. These days, I prefer smaller dive bars and more intimate get-togethers than nights out where you have to struggle just to get a drink. As far as my ideal "match" goes, I'm looking for a girl who knows what she wants/likes and prefers low-key nights out to clubs. I don't think this needs to be said, but I'm looking for a girl who is sweet, kind, thoughtful, loyal, respectful, and romantic.
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Football, Other types of exercise, Swimming, Tennis / Racquet sports, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I like Cats, Dogs, Fish, Horses
I have a cat. She was a stray who showed up at my apartment one morning. Life is exponentially better with her around.
Middle of the Road
Locally: any small dive bar where you can have good drinks and nice conversation; White Rock; Any Tex-Mex; sushi; and many others...
Just to name a few: Traveling; Alaska; National Parks; Arrested Development; Lost; Northern Exposure; Breaking Bad; Radiohead; Death Cab; Jose Gonzalez; Brunch; Chocolate; and much more.
You name it, I like to do it. Hanging out with friends, bars, traveling, photography, cooking, reading, watching movies, art museums, late-nights at IHOP, camping...I like it all - especially if its in jeans and a t-shirt.

Absolutely delicious, fast and easy. These are ingredients I have on hand at all times, which makes this a keeper in my book.
I loved the way these turned out! They made a very appealing presentation..so cute! I layered some of the strawberries into the middle after reading the cooks helpful notes. Easy to make and tasted great too.

This was a very tasty dessert, but it was much more the taste and consistency of gooey marshmallow cream cheese frosting or really thick pudding. I'll probably make it again, but not cheesy or cakey enough for me to call it cheesecake.
Yes I tried this recipe but I did not put sugar in graham crust and it taste just fine. I also cut the sugar in the cheesecake. It was yummy and easy to make. Thank you.

Last week I finished my thesis/major research project (MRP), and have been officially cleared to graduate with a Master's Degree in Communication & New Media!
The project involved a one year study of Digg.com, and instead of a traditional paper, I mixed things up and did a 'mixed media' paper, kind of like a mini website.
A lot of work went into the project, including around 150 hours creating the enormous database to sort the information I compiled every month for 12 months. In the end, I had some really strong results, finding that Digg's homepage material primarily comes only a small handful of users.

riggwelter's Journal: What a day!
Journal by riggwelter
Well, sat here in the UK, this is a wierd day. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like in the US, but we're in a state of total shock and disbelief. The other feeling in the air is fear. The world is a different place to 24 hours ago, and noone knows how exactly except that it's certainly a scarier place.

Honest, loyal, respectful and happy. Looking for same.
I have two beautiful little boys (9,6), one with autism (the 9 year old). To be honest, getting back to single life is scary, and three years ago I would never have thought I would be back. But here I am, willing to get back into the saddle and I figured I would give this Match thing a try. I am a tech and digital media entrepreneur. As a result, I'm involved with several really cool and interesting projects -- 3D animation, compositing, Internet video production and distribution, hacker spaces, and 3D printing to name a few. I have an honorary doctorate for recognition of my business efforts (hey, it made my folks happy), and I show up on the first page when you Google my name (mostly good stuff). Oh, my name? Let's save that for later :) I was raised Catholic, but now I am an agnostic who prays in spurts (autism can do that to you). I do consider myself a spiritual person, but I confine it to my thoughts, and not overt demonstrations. I prefer to live it than be showy about it. I don't have an issue if you are more or less religious than I am, as long as you are not too militant about the whole thing. I am conservative and independent in my outlook and personally pro life, especially since I saw my first son's ultrasound (I cried like a baby). That said, I think government should leave our private lives to ourselves. I love to laugh -- a lot! Who doesn't? Sometimes I laugh so hard I can't breathe! That makes my boys laugh at me laughing, which keeps the whole thing going on for minutes. There is nothing sweeter to the ears than the laugh of children. I love it when others laugh too. I think I'm pretty funny at times, though I've been told I'm the only one who thinks so :) . Actually puns are really my thing, and when I'm on a roll, it's hard to stop me. It's been awhile since I've punned like that, though; perhaps I've grown out of it... I like breathtaking views, fun restaurants, going for long walks, movies (either in cinema or at home), golf (long ball hitter, but I don't get to play enough to warrant a handicap, even though I would love to), baseball, basketball, animation, being outside, all types of technology and the tropics. I don't want to have any more kids, and its OK if you have kids. I am hoping to find that special someone over the long run, but I'm not going to rush into anything. I'm at the stage in my life where I can appreciate you a day at a time. I look forward to discovering things about you, unraveling the mystery that is you, all the while savoring the experience. I want someone who is bright, honest and above all, loyal. Someone who marvels at life's little treasures, and can see the good in things. I want someone to have fun with, who can love my children, a lover and partner to grow old with. Someone that I ache for, and aches for me. I want someone who can challenge me intellectually, appreciates a good work ethic, is respectful, understanding, geek tolerant and attractive -- someone who wants to be a partner. If you are into tech, all the better. :) Full disclosure -- I now have a mouthful of lovely braces (real sexy!) so hopefully it won't make you feel like you are dating a high school kid, unless, you know, you're into that sort of thing :P . In addition, I no longer sport the goatee that you see in these pictures. I'll get some newer pictures up soon, once I get some where I don't look so dorky (tough with the braces and no goatee...) Drop me a line if you want, or say "hi" if you see me around town. I'll be the guy who's laughing!

No cats currently, but thinking about getting an autism helper dog for my son.
My favorite place is Paris. I went on a business trip there, and would like to go again with someone special next time. Hawaii -- Kauai and Maui. Laguna Beach, Newport, San Diego, Santorini, to name a few.
My boys! Creating art and making things, 70's and 80's music, Big Bang Theory, News, Indian food, wedge salads, drawing, reading
These days, I have little free time. 2 little boys, and starting a new business, but I am happy to make time for someone special. I do enjoy hot yoga, being outside, walking, dining out, movies, museums. I am a real tinkerer around the house.
I read tons of research every day, as part of the work I do. It has been quite some time since I have read for entertainment, but when I do, I like spy thrillers and some science fiction.

Charlotte-area nonprofits try to do more with less: Recession leads to mergers and cuts in staff, programs
By Sam Boykin "Doing more with less" has become the grim mantra for many Charlotte industries as the city continues to struggle through the recession. But it's particularly applicable to the city's nonprofit sector. With a record-high jobless rate, a growing number of families are in need of basic assistance provided by nonprofits, while donations and contributions to charities and nonprofits have dwindled. "It's a very challenging time," said Trisha Lester, vice president of the N.C. Center for Nonprofits in Raleigh. "Many nonprofits, especially those handling basic social service needs, have seen demand go through the roof while their funding has been reduced. Many are cutting programs, laying off staff, forming mergers or shutting their doors altogether." The Charlotte Coalition for Social Justice, which offered youth programs and events promoting equality, leadership and diversity, lost much of its public and private funding and is in the process of closing, said Brian Collier, senior vice president for Foundation for the Carolinas.

Jim Mora is starting to put together his coaching staff to join him at UCLA. He hired two former NFL players in Adrian Klemm and Steve Broussard. Klemm was hired from SMU, where he was an assistant under June Jones, whom he played under at Hawaii. Klemm had a non-descript NFL career with the Patriots earlier this decade. Broussard as most may recall played for the Falcons in the 90s, and currently was the WR coach at Arizona State.
Interesting moves if you ask me. I wonder if many of Mora assistants will be former NFL players and/or assistants. It would be a very good recruiting tool to use in that rich California recruiting base, which he'll be able to say he offers the best potential to get players ready for the NFL having coached their himself, and many of the assistants played or coached there as well.
Recruiting will be the key if Mora is going to have much success as a college coach. Also who he hires as his coordinators will also matter of course as they do at all levels.

I would think Jim personally would be a good recruiter. Whether he has any real base to begin from is another matter. He may be better suited for the college game.

Meet the Alleged Mom of Arnold Schwarzenegger's Love Child
Arnold Schwarzenegger's alleged mystery woman -- with whom he fathered a child over a decade ago -- has been revealed by multiple outlets.
Her name, according to RadarOnline and ABC News, is Mildred Patricia Baena. A housekeeper and assistant for Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver's family for over 20 years, Beana, known as "Patty," gave birth to a son about 14 years ago.
VIDEO: Look back on Arnold and Maria's marriage
Actor-turned-politician Schwarzenegger, 63, revealed early Tuesday that he had fathered a child with a staff member, but did not reveal the identity of the mother or the child. Shriver, 55, moved out of their shared home earlier this year after her husband of 25 years came clean; Beana retired in January.
PHOTOS: Famous women who've been cheated on
The New York Times reports that rumors were flying of a secret love child eight years ago, when the Terminator star was running for governor of California. "In 2001 when he first came forward and indicated that he might run for governor there were rumors coming to us constantly about affairs and children," Garry South, a Democratic consultant in L.A. told the Times.
Friends tell the Times that Baena was working at the home, pregnant, while Shriver herself was also carrying her youngest child Christopher, now 13. Baena's son reportedly spent some time at the family home as well.
PHOTOS: Famous political families
"There are no excuses, and I take full responsibility for the hurt I have caused. I have apologized to Maria, my children and my family. I am truly sorry," Schwarzenegger said in his Tuesday statement.

2006 Dig Diary: Week 8
Click on an image to enlarge.
Here is the site at the start of our last full week of work. The upside-down wheelbarrows (left foreground) are lying on the level of burnt debris in square 5. Behind the rear wheelbarrow is a brick wall running east-west across the center of the area. The brick-lined feature uncovered last week is behind the colossal statue on the left.
Here you can see three phases in the history of this part of the site. In this photo, you are looking west along the remains of a mud brick wall that ran across the northern part of square 3. This is the third and latest phase. The wall was built atop the thick pottery-filled layer of burning that covered much of the excavation area (phase 2). Under this layer is a square feature made of baked brick and stone (phase 1).
These phases are clearer in theis photo, which shows the north side of the brick square under the north side of the wall.
The brick wall and debris in the preceding photo were documented, photographed, and removed so we could find out what lay beneath them. The brick and stone square was four courses deep and may once have contained a decorative tree or plant; it could also have been a small well. To its left you can make out remains of a round ceramic bin that revealed some interesting pottery. The two workmen in the left of the photo are working on newly-found mud brick walls. Let's take a closer look at these walls.
We have the remains of two rooms (foreground) whose east wall adjoins the wall around the large brick-lined feature (rear) and may be part of the same complex. On the right is a wall associated with the vaulted rooms built against the pylon. The light area in the right foreground is probably another brick wall, not yet defined. Are all these features contemporary?
No. Again, we have at least three phases. The latest phase is the wall with bricks burned in the fire that ravaged this area of the site. This wall runs east-west and is parallel to the north wall of the 2nd vaulted room in square 2. Below this wall is a layer of earth mixed with pottery and ash. The east and west walls of the newly found rooms clearly run under this layer, the east wall (left) preserved to a greater height than the west wall.
Somewhat to our surprise, we uncovered paving that seemed to extend from the east side of the East Porch under the west walls of squares 3 and 4 (left). To trace the paving we had to begin dismantling these later walls.
Here we have removed part of the west side of square 4. Again, several phases are visible. The paving (right) was covered by a layer of earth and stone chips (under the meter stick), probably the result of the dismantling and breaking up of the porch. Above the chips is a fairly thick layer of earth, visible on the left and in the rear. The west wall of square 4 (lighter earth in rear of photo) was built atop this layer. It clearly postdates the period when the East Porch was in active use.
The site at the end of the week. We have reached a fairly uniform level across the area, and the features described above are all clearly visible.
Pottery remains one of the most important means archaeologists have for dating what they find. It is everywhere—from palaces to tombs to mud brick houses. We collect pottery from each distinct feature, such as a floor or an area of burning, in individual, labeled baskets. Changes in style, decoration, manufacture, and even types of clay provide a general context (e.g., 3rd century A.D.) that can be refined by association with other materials from the same area, such as inscriptions (relatively rare except on major buildings) and coins, which tell you the earliest possible date for a phase (a 1991 dime couldn't have been dropped in 1989, but might have been dropped in 2002). The shards in the foreground of this picture have been washed and are waiting to be sorted, drawn, and photographed for study back home. The baskets in the background are yet to be dealt with.
Last week we lifted the fallen ram. What was left of the ram's original base lies behind the meter stick in this picture. Very little is left, so we will have to build a new base almost from scratch. The remains of a small chapel lie just to the east. Some of the new sandstone blocks we'll use to rebuild the base are stacked in front of the next ram in the row.
By the end of the week the new base is almost ready. What was left of the old base has been incorporated into the new one. The walls and foundations are sandstone and the core is composed of baked brick and cement. As always, moisture barriers have been included in the construction.
The blocks we get from the quarry are of a standard size that must be trimmed to fit the new base. All this work, such as the rough trimming of large blocks shown here, is done by hand.
This photo shows delicate work done with a chisel and hammer in progress. These techniques are probably not much different to those used in antiquity, although today's tools are made of iron and steel rather than bronze.
Tina and Khaled, assisted by Mohammed, reattached what is left of the ram's head this week, the last task before the sculpture is lifted onto its new base.
The last course of the Lepsius Gate was lifted into position this week as well. Khaled and Mohammed check to be sure the blocks are all level and even. Once the top block has been lowered into place all the blocks will be mortared. Then we'll apply a finishing coat of mortar tinted to match the stone, as we did in Chapel D.
Not all work takes place at the site. There is a conservation area in the dig house where Tina and Lisa can work on small finds. It's fairly primitive, but it at least has lighting and a worktable, and is out of the sun and dust.

As time marches on...
Another year older, and time for another update to my profile. The last several years have been a bit of a disappointment, however I think I have finally figured out some things. It seems that women around my age either already have kids or don't want them, while younger women who might want children consider me too old for them. This makes for a bit of a challenge when dating. I do not know if I want kids of my own, but I would like the choice. Unfortunately, the older I get the less likely that seems to be. In any event, I find myself entering the 15th year at my current job. I am considering buying a new car. Still need to declutter the house a bit. Little things. For the last several years, I have been an avid fan of a Northern Virginia (DC Area) Folk Band. I only get to see them a few times a year these days, but I enjoy each time immensely. This past year I flew to Switzerland to see them perform in their first European gig. Like I said, avid fan. (Some might say stalker, but I say the difference between a fan and a stalker is the lack of a restraining order. ;-) While I do enjoy listening to them perform, I also enjoy a wide variety of music. When at work I like to stream the "80's, 90's, and Today" station on Slacker Radio. I am also currently enjoying the new TV Season. After a long day at work I can come home and relax with some shows on my TiVo. Things like, NCIS, Elementary, Fringe, Once Upon A Time, Supernatural, The Big Bang Theory, just to name a few. Maybe if I am lucky this year I can find someone with whom to spend some time. Someone to go out to dinner, or movies, or maybe the occasional concert.

I probably watch more than I should, but a few of the shows that I have been watching would include: Supernatural, The Big Bang Theory, The Mentalist, NCIS, Gotham, Mythbusters
I've been a fan of a VA band, Eddie From Ohio, for several years and enjoy road tripping to see them perform several times a year.
Unfortunately it has been a long time since I was able to enjoy a good book. When I used to commute into NYC on the train, I would go through several books a week. This is not so easy to do when driving to work every day.

The Montgomery County Surveyor's office is looking for a suspected blockage in the New Richmond drain tile system which has resulted in residential and field flooding in the area.
County Surveyor Tom Cummins said that the tile is likely blocked with tree roots from a stand of roughly 200 year old trees near a section of drain tile. Cummins said a full reconstruction of section of tile was last completed in 1979.
"Even in a solid tile, those roots are going to find that water," Cummins said.

Nay, if you go to the first page of the waivers they have all your waivers shown -they have you with 6 left . Also, I tried to reach you -did you get that switch in your line up corrected ? IN TIME ?
Nay, I told Zapp what you wanted to do but he said you have to alter your line-up yourself on the line-up page -leaves you about 5 hours .
Thanks Russ, I will Pick him up right now.
A little more advice , if you want it , that outstanding drop you have -use it NOW and pick up the 197 lber from Va. -put him in the line-up instead of your 1st string 197 -he'll get a minimum of 3 matches at the Va. Duals . Plus -although he's ranked 16th in the nation he's a pin artist and former World Greco-Roman champion -he won 32 lmatches last year . It's a risk but , hey, now or never time for both of us .
this is advice -you are a grown ass man and no one should tell you what to do -
125 -Garnetti-Virginia Duals
133-Marble --V D
141 Penn state kid in the National duals
157 Burroughs
157 flex -Winston -4 matches
165 ODU-VDMaryland
174 -Lucas -NC State .
184 -Jones -National duals -
197 -Taylor-NC-
HWT -Dobies .
You'll get alot of matches in this way -plus you still have points coming in the NCstate duals and maybe today against West Virginia.
I'll alert Zapp-
Lets make the trade; Marble for henrich. I will be waiving Little.
Nay -I've done everything but beg to get you to pay attention to me and answer my PM's -I've been wheelin ' and dealin' trying to get to the finals -this next line-up is crucial-I could trade tyou Dave Marble -ranked 12th at 133 and a shoo in to win his conference for Heinrich -your 2nd string 174 -Marble is wrestling in the VA. Duals this week and last week he wrestled twice as my back up and got me 11 points -a fall and a tech -Hudson Taylor flopped on you -how 's he gonna AA if he finishes 7th at the Midlands -of 5th or whatever he placed -I am trading my 165 lber Howe -the same one I offered you earlier -to a guy to draft Halsey for me -I'll tell him to get screwed if you want to do these deals because Howe is hot and everyone wants him because he beat the #1 seed 14-8 in the midlands your 133 lber sucks dick PERIOD-Howe is ranked 8th in the nation today according to Div 1 wrestling site-what did your guy at 65 get you ? nothing .
Russ, What the heck happened to my squad last week. I barely earned anything. Glad to hear you did good. we gotta get to the top 5 before the end of this month or we will be done done.
Nay -I don't want to stress this point but you are going to be a little surprised when the scores come out next week and you see that you are in 9th place -or worse -you scored what 116 ? last week ? Normally that would be great -but I scored 147 and fft-d 2 weights because the guys were injured -Herkey and Arch outscored you -you have a championship quality team but not if you don't finish in the top 4 -and you are running out of time -everything else are dual meets -so you need to get every point possable -I am not lying to you nor have I ever lied to you -but if we don't get together we are both screwed -I'll make the top 4 -6 then get beat in the tourney because I had to sacrifice skill wrestlers for point getters -I got some points -even to place -but now I'm going nowhere in the tourney where if we both got in the tourney we'd have a chance -125 , 149 , 157 197 -all 4 of those could AA and 3 could win it for you -BUT not if you don't get into the tourney -
JBB got you a 3rd -not bad -alot better than zero-Nay -you have possably 2-3 champs -but you have to get to the finals to go to the tourney . If you want to get serious and make both our teams better -let me know -if you want to fly solo-that's ok too .
Nay -who are you going to wrestle in the tourney ?-VaTech or Cornell ? I'm trying so hard to get a 97 lber it hurts -I've worked so hard and to have some asshole who flunked off take my guy's spot just sucks -I'm trying to set up a 3 way deal is why I ask about your 125 lber . You'd better wrestle Nickerson !!!
P.S.-forget about the Heinrich thing for now -but if you would trade me Winston for Kinser I'd greatly appreciate it . Kinser is ranked 11th and Winston 17th -Hell-I'll take Bonnilla -Bowman if you want .
I meant winston - not Welch-
By the way -Trotman is in the FCA and is an academic honor student -look him up -he won 21 matches at 184 last year and is 12-2 right now . I won't lie to you -Heinrich is better -but you can't wrestle both he and Lucas at tourney time -plus Kinser is better than welch and is 10-2 -losing to Leen and Pami in close matches . I just don't want an IU kid on my team and I graduated from IU .Their coach -Goldman is a bitch and I told him so.
Nay .
I'll give you 2 of my starters for 2 of your reserves -at 174 I have Trotman -a huge black kid from App.state who is ranked 15th for Heinrich -who is ranked 11th -and I'll give you Kurt Kinser for Jason Welch-Kinser is ranked 11th and Welch 17th -just a straight trade -you give up 2 reserves and I give up 2 varsitys -I got into an arguement with IU's coach so I'm trying to trade away all my IU kids -you have Lucas and Burroughs who are going to AA for you so you're not really missing anything except maybe a flex -but Trotman will fill in nicely and he'll win the SO Con and get you 16 points right there , or is it 20 ? Kinser stuck welch at the MSU open I just won't get what he's worth so I figured you could use him . Deal ?
Nay -I need to know if you are going to draft -Brandon Halsey -Cal State Bakersfield -for me or not . I'll give you Howe and you might want to draft him for yourself then trade Taylor to me -this kid is good -or if nothing else please draft Bradshaw for me .If you don't want Howe I have Jarequi @149 -i've just worked so hard and traded and drafted to get where I'm at -i think after the Reno week I should be in 6th place .
PLEASE let me know as soon as possible . Thanks , Russ
Nay -I'll give you my prize freshman 165 lber -Andrew Howe -if you draft Bradshaw from Edinboro- 197- for me -all your'e out is a draft pick and you're getting the top freshman in the NCAA's -he was 3 x state champ and a friend of mine but m,y other 197 lber got beat out by some asshole who flunked off last year . Of course the year before he won the Pac 10 conference and beat the #1 seed at the NCAA's .
As for your 133 problem , there are a few mid level guysa but no one who stands out -if I were you I'd draft Dillashaw from Cal -if you want to take a chance there is a young broher from N.Ill who is 8-4 with 6 pinds -your best bet is wait for a trade .
After the Scuffle I'll be ffting 197 so if you could draft Bradshaw for me I'd appreciate it and give you the best high schoiol wrestler I''ve ever seen -he's like 9-2 so far but he gets better every week .
Nay -holler at me when you get online tomorrow -we'll woprk out some deals because the next lineup is THE major of the season -you might want to have someone at 149 in the Midlands -I'll need you to pick me up a 97 lber as the last one got hurt -I have the 13th rated 133 lber in the nation and I can come off my super freshman -Howe -at 165 .
We'll talk tomorrow .
nay , that's a better move then putting Winston in because the Scuffle is usually weaker and maybe Bonnilla can get some things going and get you some points -has Litle scored you a point yet ? Plus he's ranked like 4th in his own conference so there goes a chance at those bonus points .
Wish your brother well for me . The 189 lber in the tourney I mean.
Rus, Your right. I need a good 133lber. lets get some thing going. I am also going to change my lineup. I'm putting bonilla in instead of Bourroughs. I gotta go to a wrestling tourney today at Hannover Park NJ to see my little brother James hes going 189 today and thats a big stepup for him. He's got seeded 2nd. He should be at 171 but we will see how he does. I will be on Sunday with changes.

This twisted defense of colonialism is as repulsive as it is supremacist and archaic.
"Politicizing this is repulsive," Rebecca Mansour wrote on her Twitter page.
The thought of her mailing the check was so repulsive I stopped eating the mangoes cold.
early 15c., "able to repel," from Middle French repulsif (14c.) and directly from Medieval Latin repulsivus, from repuls-, past participle stem of repellere (see repel). The sense of "causing disgust" is first recorded 1816. Related: Repulsively; repulsiveness.

Weight is the measure of the heaviness of an object. While weight is proportional to an object's mass, the terms mass and weight are slightly different.
The dictionary defines weight, in addition to being an object's heaviness, as "the force with which a body is attracted to Earth or another celestial body, equal to the product of the object's mass and the acceleration of gravity." Whereas mass is a measurement of the amount of matter in an object, an object's weight is proportional to both its mass and the gravitational acceleration applied to the object. For example, if two identical objects were on Earth and the moon respectively, the objects would have the same mass, but the object on the moon would have less weight. This is because the gravitational force of the moon on an object is less than that of the Earth.

Maglev trains stop by reversing the direction of the magnetic fields that normally propel them forward. As with the initial propulsion, this is accomplished without any physical contact with the rails. The entire system uses electromagnets or superconducting magnets to create a type of linear motor that controls the motion of the train.
There are many advantages to Maglev trains over traditional trains where metal wheels are in contact with metal rails. The fact that Maglev trains are floated on magnetic fields away from any physical contact with the rails prevents friction. This not only increases the efficiency of the trains, but also prevents the wear and tear that makes conventional rail systems expensive to maintain. Individual Maglev train cars are also less expensive to build than conventional train cars.
Two different methods for levitating Maglev trains exist. The first, using conventional electromagnets, actually pulls guides attached to the train up toward the bottom of the track, so they are kept close but not in contact. This method requires great precision because of the small spacing required.
The other method uses superconductors on the train itself. A property of superconductors is that they can exclude magnetic fields from other magnets, which forces the two magnetic objects to maintain a space between them. Electromagnets in the track provide this magnetic field. This does not require as much precision, but the superconductors must be kept incredibly cold, which is a technical challenge.

NewsBusters' Warner Todd Huston falsely claimed that President Obama funded a $2.6 million NIH grant to "help train Chinese prostitutes to 'drink responsibly on the job.' " In fact, the grant was awarded during the Bush administration.
Fox News hosts and contributors have repeatedly forwarded the Republican claim that the Obama administration intends to release terrorists held at Guantánamo Bay into the United States. However, the administration has explicitly stated that it does not intend to release terrorists into the U.S.
On Special Report, Bret Baier promoted unnamed studies "showing" that "the Earth is actually cooling." However, climate experts reject the idea that relatively cooler global temperatures during the past 10 years are any indication that global warming is slowing or does not exist.
Even as the GOP reportedly launches "a campaign to sow anxiety about Obama's stewardship of national security," some in the media have declared that the GOP has found a "winning issue" with its campaign to highlight possible Guantánamo Bay detainee transfers to the U.S. if the prison there is closed.
Fox News' Bret Baier cited a conclusion from a media study that President Obama received more positive coverage through his first 50 days than President Bush or President Clinton but not the study's conclusion that Obama's "positive media image hasn't precluded heavy criticism of his policies."
During and following President Obama's recent trip to Europe and the Middle East, which included a meeting of the G-20 and the NATO summit, conservative media figures and outlets have accused Obama of turning the trip into an "apology tour."
The Drudge Report linked to an article with the headline "Biden credits stimulus for fire station -- funded under Bush." But after facts emerged that undermined that claim, the Drudge Report removed any reference to the article and did not subsequently link to an updated version of the article or in any other way note the evidence undermining the accusation against Biden that it had forwarded.
Molly Henneberg uncritically aired quotes that suggested the estate tax would affect "many" small businesses and family farms. But the Tax Policy Center estimated that in 2009, "about 90 percent of the 700 small farm and business estates that will have to file estate tax returns will not owe any estate tax."

Despite the scientific consensus that human-caused global warming is real and is negatively affecting the planet, the media have repeatedly provided a platform for critics who argue that the Earth is in a period of "cooling" or that the issue of global warming does not need to be addressed.
Neil Cavuto and Bret Baier falsely claimed that the Employee Free Choice Act would, in Baier's words, "do away with the secret ballot in votes to unionize." In fact, as The Christian Science Monitor noted, EFCA would give "workers a choice of forming a union through majority sign-up ... or an election by secret ballot."
On Special Report, Bret Baier stated: "Following news Mr. Obama picked North Carolina to win the NCAA championship, rival coach [Mike] Krzyzewski responded: 'Somebody said that we're not in President Obama's Final Four, and as much as I respect what he's doing, really, the economy is something that he should focus on, probably more than the brackets.' " But Baier -- and other media figures -- did not report Krzyzewski's following comment in which he praised Obama, saying in part, "I love the guy, and I think he's gonna be great."
A Media Matters analysis found that since the day after President Obama's inauguration, broadcast and cable news figures have been stating that Obama's "honeymoon" is "over" or questioning whether it is, rendering the cliché all but meaningless. During this period, media figures have suggested Obama's "honeymoon" is "over" with respect to "some ... die-hard Republicans," the media, African-Americans, Cuban President Fidel Castro, "Republican critics of his economic recovery plan," and economists.
On Special Report, Bret Baier reported on emails from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office concerning requests for air transportation for congressional delegation trips, citing one email calling a lack of a certain type of plane "totally unacceptable" and saying, "The Speaker will want to know where the planes are." But Baier failed to report that according to ABC's The Note, the email in question "came in reference to planes available for bipartisan trips by congressional delegations -- not the speaker's personal travel" or that Republicans participated in several of the congressional delegations for which Pelosi's office requested transportation.

He just stole again.
P is crying, I'm worried she has an ear infection.
It's just one of those months….
So frustrating! Raising children can be challenging.
My thoughts as I read your last few posts are, "Why is he mad at you?" If this really is the reason he is stealing. If he is stealing because he is mad, wouldn't restricting him make him madder.
I like the suggestion of trying to provide and reward situations where he displays trust.
I haven't had to much of a problem but occasionally my kids will take a treat. I make sure that when we have that particular item as a family that person isn't allowed to have any. I remind them that they don't get it because they already had it. Natural consequences seem to work well with my kids.
Good luck!

Mishawaka Marian rolls over Boonville in 3A state semifinals
MUNCIE, Ind. — There aren't many high school volleyball programs in the state with more tradition than Boonville. Unfortunately for the Pioneers, they ran into one on Saturday.
Mishawaka Marian, making its third consecutive trip to the Class 3A finals, ended Boonville's surprising run on Saturday, carving out a 25-11, 25-15, 25-18 in the semifinal round at Muncie Central High School.
Boonville, making its sixth state finals appearance while still seeking its first championship, finished 24-13. A victory would have been a huge upset for the Pioneers, who went 2-4 in Big Eight Conference play before hitting their stride in the tournament.
Mishawaka Marian came in with a 32-6 record, with three of the losses to Class 4A state finalists Elkhart Memorial and Indianapolis Cathedral. The Knights hadn't lost a game in sweeping the Plymouth sectional and regional titles, and were playing at state for the fifth time this decade.
"I really think their experience, both in the tournament and in club tournaments, made a big difference," said Boonville coach Mary Cox. "We came out a little nervous, but then I thought we really played hard once we settled down.
"We had the goal of getting here all year, but for a while it really looked unlikely. But the girls got their heads in the game, got their confidence back in the tournament and really acquitted themselves well."
The Pioneers were within 6-5 in the first game when the Knights ran off a seven-point burst. Boonville didn't get back-to-back points until it trailed 23-9.
In the second game, with sophomore Andi Miller serving four points, senior Natasha Chapman three and senior Meagan Collins coming up big at the net, Boonville got within 15-14. But Mishawaka standout Katie Mischler served five points, and the Knights pulled away.
Boonville was down 16-8 in the third game before junior Kiersten Owen served a five-point set, with Collins getting two kills and a block. But, again, Mishawaka had an answer.

The Panthers have named quarterbacks coach Mike Shula as their new offensive coordinator and promoted two other assistant coaches. Carolina also announced Friday Richard Rodgers will become the special teams coordinator after taking over that role on an interim basis last season. Also, Ricky Proehl has been promoted as the team's new wide receivers coach after working as the assistant wide receivers coach in 2012. Shula takes over for Rob Chudzinski, who was left to become the Cleveland Browns' head coach. Shula is credited with helping with the development of quarterback Cam Newton. He's been an offensive coordinator once before, spending four seasons (1996-99) with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. During that span the Bucs finished 29th in total offense, 27th in points scored and last in the league in passing.

UDR, Inc.
), a real estate investment trust (REIT), reported third quarter
2012 FFO (funds from operations) of $86.5 million or 33 cents per
share, compared with 73.0 million or 32 cents in the year-earlier
quarter. Reported FFO per share was in line with the Zacks
Consensus Estimate.
The community consists of 173 homes and has an estimated cost
of $50.7 million. Additionally, the company acquired a land
parcel in Santa Monica, California for $10.3 million through a
joint venture.
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, UDR exchanged its ownership
stake in four operating communities and two land parcels in the
UDR-MetLife I joint venture, (along with $10 million in cash),
with an increase in its stake in the A-quality operating
community - The Olivian.
At closing, the company will own 50% of The Olivian, which
will be a part of the UDR/MetLife II joint venture. The four
operating communities and two land parcels for which UDR entered
into arrangements to exchange have a combined debt of $134.7
million with a weighted average interest rate of 3.5% and a term
of 7 years. The Olivian's debt stood at $63.4 million with an
interest of 4.5% and a term of 7 years
At the end of the quarter, the company's liquidity amounted to
$1.1 billion through a combination of cash and undrawn capacity
on its credit facilities. This amount is likely to meet UDR's
immediate capital needs for debt maturities, development and
redevelopment activities.
As of September 30, 2012, UDR had total debt of $3.3 billion and
a fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.9x. UDR ended the quarter with
89% fixed-rated debt at a total blended interest rate of 4.5% and
a weighted average debt maturity of 4.8 years.
UDR currently retains a Zacks #2 Rank, which translates into a
short-term Buy rating. We maintain our long-term Neutral
recommendation on the stock. One of its competitors,
