My company is looking for a new web developer and we are eager to find someone that would be efficient as soon as hired and capable of making quality code. I will have to take interview and I would like to give them an assignment, so I can see
- their general programming skills
- if they are able to use CSS
- the general quality of what they product
- and probably so much more
The only problem I don't have good ideas of what to give to them. Some of the candidate would probably be working in some other company so it should be something like 8 hours work at maximum (like one week end) but it should be complicate enough to show their skills.
So far I was thinking :
- a contact manager
- a CD/BOOK manager
- a blog ?
guys if you have some ideas opinions, please share!
Also the assignment would be in PHP using the Zend Framework, so it has to take in the calculation candidates might not be so experienced with the framework.

This is an awkward question lol but I have a seven yr old gelding and I don't think he has ever had his sheath cleaned . . . I am pretty sure this is not a good thing. How often should it be cleaned? I have obviously never attempted this so the first time I will have somebody else do it (i also don't know how he will react) - well see if I can find someone . . . Whenever he drops it appears clean but that's just the outside . . .
I also wipe it w/ a damp sponge when he drops but like I said that's just the outside. Sorry for the odd question thanks in advance =]

I hate the idea of jaws leaving I loved that boat ride in Orlando.
I do see why they would pick that ride though. Removing jaws would give them one of the largest chunks of property for a new land. The jaws attraction is also right next to another large plot of undeveloped property.
It would allow them to expand the park with one large themed land or multiple attraction.
Is the wild west stunt show still playing? If not then that plot of land would give them even a bigger expansion plot.
I just don't see how they would even consider an expansion of harry potter there though. The jaws attraction is on the opposite side of the universal property. It would require them to Add a train track that circles the outside parameter of the property. Isn't there also a train at the entrance of the land? Would it require them to redesign that area so the land does not have two train depots within potterland

As the hunger strike continues to rage at Guantánamo, with at least 130 of the remaining 166 prisoners involved, I'm delighted to have the opportunity to cross-post an interview with Carlos Warner, an attorney with the Office of the Federal Defender for the Northern District of Ohio, who represents ten prisoners at Guantánamo — including a number of Yemeni prisoners, a "high-value detainee," one of the last five Tunisians in Guantánamo, the only Kenyan, and Fayiz al-Kandari, one of the last two Kuwaitis in the prison.
The interview was conducted by my friend The Talking Dog, a New-York based independent journalist who has conducted dozens of interviews with lawyers, journalists and former prisoners over the last eight years — which someone should publish as a book, at some point!
I am enormously grateful to The Talking Dog for putting me up on my generally annual visits to New York to campaign for the closure of Guantánamo, which began as a result of the friendship that we struck up after he interviewed me, back in September 2007, just as my book The Guantánamo Files was being published, and I hope you have time to read and publicize this interview. The hunger strike began because of aggression by the guards and the perceived abuse of the prisoners' Korans, but as time has gone on, it has become a sustained protest against the men's indefinite detention, and the fact that, having been abandoned by President Obama, they may die at the prison, even though 86 of them were cleared for release by the interagency Guantánamo Review Task Force that President Obama established just after taking office in 2009.
TD Blog Interview with Carlos Warner
The Talking Dog, April 4, 2013
Carlos Warner is an attorney with the Office of the Federal Defender for the Northern District of Ohio, and represents approximately twelve men currently detained at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. On April 1, 2013, I had the privilege of interviewing him by telephone. What follows are my interview notes, as corrected by Mr. Warner.
The Talking Dog: Where were you on September 11th, 2001?
Carlos Warner: I was in my office in Cleveland. I had a friend in the FBI visiting from New York. He commandeered my office and he set up a mini-command centre. There were 3 or 4 agents in my office during the hours after the attack. We watched in horror together on a small television we found in the office. The city was evacuated; rumors abounded that there was an attack planned or underway in just about every large American city, including Cleveland.
In our case, Flight 93 happened to fly right over Cleveland — so there was heightened fear. I looked outside my office and I remember seeing an endless string of planes lined up in the sky to land and I expected that one of these planes might crash into the City. Because of the panic, the areas around Cleveland were completely gridlocked — nothing moved for hours. Instead of fighting the gridlock, I went out for a run with two other public defenders Walter Camino and Jack Greene through an abandoned city; it was surreal on many levels.
The Talking Dog: Please identify your present GTMO-detained client or clients by name, nationality, and age, and anything else of interest about them, or about what you know about events at Guantánamo, particularly the hunger strike?
Carlos Warner: We represent eleven men still there, plus the Kuwaiti Fayiz al-Kandari, whose case is complete, although Fayiz has requested that I represent him.
The majority of our clients were assigned to us by the Court through "next friend petitions" dating from 2007 and 2008; almost all of those clients were Yemeni. Over the years we were assigned other clients as well, including a Kenyan, Abdulmalik and a Tunisian, Adel Hakeemy who was recently rumored to have attempted suicide. I also represent a "high value detainee" — Mohammed Rahim. Our present clients are as follows:

Judge Richard Leon (RJL)
[cleared for release]
The Talking Dog: Please tell me the status of the pending habeas cases.
Carlos Warner: We have a mix of men cleared for transfer or release and some who are not. In my view, there is no meaningful habeas corpus review. It's an empty vessel for the men. "Habeas Corpus" only allows for me to visit them. The District Court is not to blame, it's the Circuit Court that has actively dismantled meaningful habeas corpus review. The Supreme Court has passively watched meaningful review disappear. I view my charge as to obtain the release of my clients from Guantánamo — even though I am technically assigned as habeas counsel.
The Talking Dog: Can you please tell me the last time you visited your clients at Guantánamo, and can you describe the circumstances of your visit. If you could, can you contrast that visit with what you found at earlier visits, including the condition of your clients, the restrictions on you as counsel and on your clients during your visit, the condition in which you found your clients, and anything else you believe relevant.
Carlos Warner: I believe I've been to Guantánamo more than thirty times. And I've been there twice since the hunger strike began on February 6th, I've had notes cleared discussing the strike on both occasions. I was last down the week of March 18th. I've stated this many times — seeing him (Fayiz) was a stark and incredible sight; I can only describe him as near death. He lost between a quarter and a third of his body weight. He couldn't stand, his cheeks were sunken. He had labored breathing. Fayiz appeared to be nearing death when I saw him. I made the focus of my meeting pleading with him to take honey. I told him I could not help him if he was dead. He was polite and kind in refusing nourishment.
The Talking Dog: Can you tell me if your clients are participating in the present hunger strike, and whether they have participated in prior hunger strikes?
Carlos Warner: Besides Fayiz, we believe that all, or almost all, of our clients are on hunger strike. This estimate is based upon the various reports we are getting from the camps.
The reports we received as of yesterday (March 31, 2013) are that 130 out of the 166 or so total prisoners are on hunger strike. We believe that the 16 "high value detainees" are not on hunger strike. We believe that two prisoners in Camp 6 are not striking. Then, there are a number of individuals either in the hospital or in different camps who are unknown, plus a few in the psychiatric ward.
All of the reports we are getting out of Camps 5 and 6 explain that the entire population is on strike, which takes us to approximately 130 men.
The Talking Dog: What's the source of these reports — attorneys? Journalists?
Carlos Warner: Our reports are from attorneys although I pay close attention to reports in the media. Every attorney has made a concerted effort to talk to their clients, and the reports we have been getting from counsel have been uniform in their accuracy. The big open question was Camp 5. We have now had a number of reports out of Camp 5. Clive Stafford Smith spoke to Shaker Aamer recently [and also see here], and that conversation confirmed again that all of Camp 5 is on strike. 130 is our count, and it could be more, up to 135, 136.
This strike is unprecedented in scale and duration. Guantánamo has never experienced anything like this. I no longer pay attention to the military numbers. We have a huge problem in Guantánamo and I am focused on getting the clients to eat again.
The Talking Dog: Can you give me the "Cliff Notes" version of what triggered this hunger strike and how it has progressed?
Carlos Warner: What I'm telling you is all declassified by the Department of Defense. It seems to have been triggered on February 6, 2013, by a particularly aggressive shakedown search. At GTMO, the Army took over management from the Navy some time last year, in terms of day to day management of the prison. The Army appointed a Colonel who had served in Iraq, who decided to "lay down the law" at the camp. One thing he chose to do is use more aggressive searches of the men and their belongings. Another example of the aggressive stance of the new command was the shooting in early January. This sort of aggressive interaction was previously unheard of at GTMO; but apparently it's the new normal for the new regime. It sparked the fire that is fueled by the desperation of indefinite detention.
And so on February 6, 2013, during the complete prison shakedown, the guards took everything away from the prisoners, all "comfort items" — the iso-mats (yoga mats that the prisoners sleep on), family pictures and family and legal mail, supposedly "just to check it out." And the guards, or specifically Muslim interpreters, with soldiers looking on, went through the prisoners' Korans supposedly searching for contraband.
I met with Fayiz on February 13th, and he told me about the situation at that time. At that time, prisoners told the military that they would prefer not to have the Korans at all rather than have the military engage in this behavior, which the prisoners perceived as an affront. The men indicated they would not eat again in response to these recent events.
The last hunger strike took place in '06/'07, and was in response to similar shakedowns and also the purported suicide of several detainees. The men were allowed to surrender their Korans during that time. The demand has remained consistent: if the prisoners are permitted to surrender their Korans, the hunger strike would end. Period. The military has now refused to allow the men to voluntarily surrender the Koran. I cannot imagine the logic behind this decision. I have come to realize logic is a precious commodity in GTMO.
As I see it, and as I've tried to convey to my own clients, they don't need the hunger strike for attention; after all, if they kill themselves what's the point? I and my colleagues can win this fight because we're motivated and correct — and we don't need or want our clients to die in the process. However, the men are committed to this and their solidarity is growing. If the conflict stays in the current direction, it's going to end in men dying.
The Talking Dog: Does the Department of Defense know this, and if the answer is yes, what has the response been?
Carlos Warner: All of what I have told you has been conveyed to the Department of Defense; they are aware of this. We have received no response, at all. In the press they have called the surrender of the Koran an "unacceptable solution." Again, logic is a precious commodity and it is wholly lacking in the DoD's position on this conflict.
The Talking Dog: Can you comment on media coverage, in particular, of events at Guantánamo in calendar year 2013, and previously, and in particular, with respect to your own clients and representation?
Carlos Warner: The media is a fickle animal. I get that. I think about the 86 innocent men (so found by a unanimous inter-agency task force) every day. Our problem is that GTMO has slipped to the distant background. One reason is that the Administration has no pressure on it is that the Left is satisfied with President Obama's pat answer of "it's Congress's fault" and the Right is satisfied with the idea of holding innocent men at GTMO under the auspices of the war on terror. Neither the Left or Right fully comprehend that the majority of men in Guantánamo are innocent and should be released. The public still believes GTMO holds the worst of the worst. This falsehood must be attacked at every opportunity for those of us who have the ability to do so.
We as legal representatives are at best a loosely associated bunch … and so there has been no organized coverage. We have a difficult time agreeing on the format of an agenda let alone the agenda itself. I am willing to accept responsibility for this. GTMO has always been a political and diplomatic problem and we as counsel should attack the problem in a selfless and unified manner.
The bottom line is no one leaves GTMO until pressure is applied to the President. The status quo will result in all of the men remaining there at least until this President leaves office. The public, of course, has absolutely no conception that we are holding so many innocent men because it doesn't help the President or the Right to publicize that fact of innocent people being wrongfully detained. The general public simply views GTMO as something that it is not.
The Talking Dog: Is there anything else I should have asked you, or anything else the public needs to know about GTMO, indefinite detention and related issues and what's going on there?
Carlos Warner: Indefinite detention applies to everyone at GTMO now. That's what's driving the hunger strike. Now, is this a problem without a solution? Certainly not. With the President's support, we could have many innocent men repatriated in 6 to 7 months. There is already $40 million rehabilitation center in Kuwait built specifically for returning GTMO detainees. This center was built under the supervision of the United States for this specific purpose. There is a similar facility in Saudi Arabia. Both are ready and available. Indeed, today (April 1, 2013) the government of Yemen said that it wants its own detainees returned.
Our President must reaffirm what he said he would do in 2009. My President is the philosophical and moral opposite to Dick Cheney and his Neocon Clan. President Obama once announced that Guantánamo "set back the moral authority that is America's strongest currency in the world."
President Obama spoke in front of a copy of the Constitution when he said: "I can tell you that the wrong answer is to pretend like this problem will go away if we maintain an unsustainable status quo," Obama said. "As president, I refuse to allow this problem to fester. Our security interests won't permit it. Our courts won't allow it. And neither should our conscience." He must reaffirm this pledge now.
This is his choice — there is no legal or political impediment to closing Guantánamo. It's not a question of politics, its a question of morals, values and the will to do what's right. I choose to believe my President will do what is right.
The Talking Dog: I join all of my readers in thanking Mr. Warner for that eye-opening interview.

I spent the last few years furthering my education and my career and have succeeded at both. Along the way I set myself up with an awesome place in Brooklyn, started learning piano, and took a few trips to Europe. Now I'm at a point where I'm ready for someone to join me and enhance this movie called my life. I have a routine like everyone else and mine consists of going to the gym in the mornings, (unfortunately) working long days, and I spend my evenings practicing piano before going to sleep. Friday nights I'm in the studio with a glass of red, m. jane, and my headphones on producing music so I can get up early on Saturday and run in Prospect Park. On a final note, I enjoy all the typical things that most people do however, I'm looking for something more than just drinks and great dinners. What are those things we have in common that would actually make a relationship thrive? For starters, maybe you would say yes to a few of these things: you sing, create music, or play an instrument, you have a creative flair and actually draw, paint, sculpture, do pottery, or something unique like blow glass, you love to travel and want a partner in crime, love to dance - preferably to electronic music (either way rhythm on the dance floor is important), love the beach and maybe want to even learn how to surf with me, can teach me Italian or some other language, like taking pictures around NYC, would go running with me, you're entrepreneurial in some way, and of course you're always positive, smiling, close to your family and someone people like to be around. Hmnn maybe you don't do any of those but you have an open mind, curious, and want to try; well that's attractive as well. Physical AND mental chemistry is key. With the right person I'm very affectionate so you should be too. There is a lot more to me but let's save the rest for an actual conversation (or an email haha) and please email me something more than hi :)
Coffee and conversation , Business networking , Dining out , Gardening/Landscaping , Hobbies and crafts , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Shopping/Antiques , Travel/Sightseeing , Wine tasting
Dancing, Football, Other types of exercise, Running, Soccer, Swimming, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
I like Cats, Dogs, Exotic Pets, Fish
I use to have a boxer and I recently rescued a cat.
Ibiza, Formentera, Barcelona, Amsterdam, SOBE. Italy, Germany, Greece, Argentina, Costa Rica and Brazil are up next.
Dancing, producing electronic music, the ocean and beach, traveling abroad, putting on my headphones and getting in the zone while I run and work out, good conversation over dinner and drinks, and my vinyl collection.
music theory, electronic music, dancing, art galleries, curating content for my blog, street art, technology, surfing, antique barns, flea markets, NIN, the 80s, and I enjoy chilling in my apartment and backyard AKA the secret garden!

There's nothing much for the West Genesee boys swim team to do in 2009-10 -- just defend the Section III Class A championship.
With the likes of Ben Seketa,Carson Elias and Tyler Agen around, the Wildcats' task gets easier, and it roared through last Wednesday night's opening meet at its home pool in Camillus, beating Cicero-North Syracuse 105-76.
As a starting point, WG's 200 medley relay quartet of Pat O'Donnell, Matt Wolfanger, Jake Mullett and Brendon Marks won their race in a time of 1:52.92.
Later in the meet, O'Donnell would claim the 100 backstroke in a quick 55.10 seconds. Mullett prevailed in the 200 individual medley (2:19.62).
Elias emerged in the 100 butterfly, tearing to the line in 55.82 seconds, while Seketa took first place in the 100 breaststroke in 1:01.17 and Agen swam the 500 freestyle in 5:17.74.
Just as impressive on the diving board, Josh Byrne posted 252.60 points, this after Kevin Taylor won the 200 freestyle (2:08.65) and before Tyler Olson won the 100 freestyle in 52.86 seconds. Olson, Elias, Tyler Zapisek and Mike Clark combined to help the Wildcats win the 200 freestyle rely in 1:41.25.
WG stays at home next Wednesday for a key CNY Counties League meet against Fayetteville-Manlius.

|First Appearance:
|Chapter 1; Episode 4[1]
Chapter 432; Episode 314[2]
|Three Great Powers
|Pirate Captains
|New World
The Yonko are the four most notorious and most powerful pirate captains in the world (according to the World Government), but are neither allies nor enemies of one another, preferring to remain autonomous under most circumstances. [citation needed] These four individually reside within the second half of the Grand Line (known as the "New World"), exerting impressive influence and control over dozens of other pirate crews and self-governing islands.[citation needed]
In the decisive Battle of Marineford, Whitebeard, one of the Yonko, met his end towards the climax of the Whitebeard War. Blackbeard, his assassin, subsequently usurped his position. Shanks, another member of the Yonko, arbitrated a ceasefire to end the aforementioned war.[citation needed]
Abilities and Powers
As an entity, the Yonko are one of the Three Great Powers of the world, the others being the Shichibukai and Marines.[2] Their strength and influence are such that they live quite literally as though they are emperors, doing mostly as they please. Individually, they are considered to be the most powerful pirates in the world, as well as having a powerful crew. Because of their power, they can declare chosen locations as their own; the mere declaration is often enough for others, both Marines and pirates alike, to acknowledge their authority.
In fact, in the New World, they each have a territory that they govern. These territories benefit from the protection the emperors provide, keeping the borders safe from any faction that might want to invade them. It is only with the combined efforts of the Marines and the Shichibukai, as well as the distrust among them, that keeps their power in check. During the Battle of Marineford, the Marines and Shichibukai needed to fight together just to engage one of the Yonko and his crew. The arrival of a second Yonko immediately brought an end to hostilities, showing the power and influence they have without engaging in combat.
The Yonko themselves are not allied together as a coalition compared to the Shichibukai and follow their own individual paths. The possibility of two or more of the Yonko forming an alliance is enough of a threat to cause the World Government to panic, as seen when the World Government attempted unsuccessfully to prevent a meeting between Shanks and Whitebeard at one point in the series. The World Government feared that the two Yonko may unite together and create a stronger threat. A war between two of the Yonko is considered a terrifying crisis, as Shanks' interception of Kaido's advancement on Whitebeard had taken the Marines by shock and awe, putting the World Government in a "cold sweat" as stated by one of the Marines.
They can motivate others to become pirates; Shanks inspired Luffy, and the death of Whitebeard inspired many pirates to travel to the Grand Line. On top of this, the influence these pirates have over others is far greater than any other noted group. With one declaration, the slave trade and pirate attacks on Fishman Island stopped after the island was declared to be under Whitebeard's control.
After the timeskip Trafalgar Law cited that there are only two methods of surviving in the New World, and that is to be protected under the umbrella of a Yonko's dominion and become their ally or to constantly oppose their authority. At least Teach and Kaido are both gaining influence and strength in the form of amassing Devil Fruit powers, both in their own unorthodox methods.
Because of their immense power, it is necessary for factions aiming to oppose them to first strike an alliance with other factions in order to bring the Yonko down. However, even with multiple alliances amongst powerful pirates, the chances of defeating a Yonko are still extremely low.
Golden Age of Pirates
The first of the Yonko to be introduced was Shanks, who visited Luffy's hometown ten years before the story began. It is unknown if the title of Yonko existed at that point in time. The second was Whitebeard, the only man who could rival the Pirate King Gol D. Roger in strength. Whitebeard was later also described as the strongest man in the world upon Roger's death. Some of the Shichibukai have fought the Yonko in the past; Shanks and Dracule Mihawk frequently dueled in their younger days, Gekko Moriah fought Kaido, and Crocodile fought Whitebeard.
All of the Yonko seem to have strong fleets, including huge ships and elite crewmen. At some point, they all traveled to the New World where they are currently locked in a stalemate, unable to progress any further into the Grand Line. This is a product of the combined efforts of the Marines and the Shichibukai, as well as the presence of the other Yonko.[3]
Jaya Arc
The World Government allowed the world powers to stay as they were for a long period of time. With the Yonko stuck in a deadlock, the world remained stable. However, after the defeat of Crocodile by the Straw Hat Pirates, the World Government was alarmed to learn of two of the Yonko, Shanks and Whitebeard, arranging to meet each other.[4][5]
Post-Enies Lobby Arc
On top of the destruction of Enies Lobby, the Marines experienced another defeat in the New World when a blockade failed to prevent Shanks and Whitebeard from making contact.[6] Fearing the two crews might form an alliance, the World Government anxiously waited to know the outcome.
During the meeting, Shanks's presence upon boarding Whitedbeard's ship caused a majority of the crew to collapse. Shanks shared sake from his hometown with Whitebeard as a token of friendship while at the same time issuing a grave warning.[6]
Shanks told Whitebeard that his days as the strongest pirate were coming to an end, warning him of the new era that was to come. With Blackbeard making his move toward prominence, he would depose Whitebeard from his throne. Shanks also tried to convince Whitebeard to call the 2nd Division Commander, Portgas D. Ace, back from his pursuit of Blackbeard. Whitebeard stubbornly refused Shanks's warning, and the two clashed. The sky seemingly split in half when their weapons collided, much to the horror of the members of both crews.[6]
Summit War Saga
Impel Down Arc
In an attempt to rescue Portgas D. Ace from execution, Whitebeard summoned all of his allies from the New World in preparation for war. Kaido attempted to attack Whitebeard, but he was intercepted by Shanks.[7]
Marineford Arc
Whitebeard and his crew and allies arrived at Marineford three hours before Ace's scheduled execution and initiated what would be known as the greatest war since the beginning of the Golden Age of Pirates. During this battle against the Marines, Whitebeard revealed how debilitated he had become over the last two decades, and he steadily acquired increasingly critical wounds from his enemies because of his weakened state.
During the battle, he destroyed most of Marine Headquarters, easily defeated two large Giants who were at the rank of vice-admirals, and withstood the combined efforts of the three Admirals. He was able to help free Ace, but Admiral Akainu executed Ace afterwards. An enraged Whitebeard dealt a serious blow to the admiral, but it was not enough to completely incapacitate him.
Remaining at Marineford alone to resolve the conflict with the Marines, Whitebeard was attacked and ultimately killed by the Blackbeard Pirates. Shortly afterwards, Shanks arrived at Marineford with his crew. His presence spared the remaining allies of Whitebeard and brought the war to an end. Shanks challenged Blackbeard, which the latter turned down before leaving with his own crew.
Post-War Arc
According to Eustass Kid, Whitebeard's death and resulting vacancy among the Yonko caused the balance of the Three Great Powers to collapse, leading to chaos around the world. Islands that were once under Whitebeard's protection, such as Foodvalten, came under attack by pirates.[8]
Some time after the war, X Drake arrived at an island belonging to Kaido, stated to be one of the Yonko's favorites. He asked "Iron Boy" Scotch if attacking him would catch Kaido's attention. Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Drake changed into his dinosaur form and attacked the cyborg.[9]
The Gorosei postulated that Blackbeard was the pirate closest to becoming the next Yonko, due to his possession of two Devil Fruit abilities and having complete knowledge about Newgate's sphere of influence.[10]
After the death of Whitebeard, Big Mom took over as the protector of Fishman Island in exchange for a large amount of candy every month.[11]
Teach also usurped Whitebeard's position as the fourth Yonko as the Gorosei predicted, having managed to conquer most of Whitebeard's former territory and becoming stronger by hunting down powerful Devil Fruit users and taking their abilities after killing them.[12]
Fishman Island Arc
When the candy factory was demolished during the uprising of the New Fishman Pirates and Flying Pirates, Fishman Island almost provoked Big Mom's wrath, since the island did not have enough candy for the tribute to her. Monkey D. Luffy pledged that he will claim Fishman Island as his protectorate by defeating Big Mom, shifting her fury from the island to himself.
Pirate Alliance Saga
Punk Hazard Arc
According to Caesar Clown, Kaido had assembled an army of Zoan Devil Fruit users using Smiles provided by Donquixote Doflamingo.[13] During the events of the Punk Hazard Arc, Trafalgar Law offered to form an alliance with Monkey D. Luffy[14] in order to depose Kaido. Luffy agreed to it, but he also declared that he would eventually overthrow all four Yonko.[15] Independently, Eustass Kid, Basil Hawkins and Scratchmen Apoo came to an agreement and also formed an alliance to take down one of the Yonko.[16] When Kid saw that Luffy and Law had formed their own alliance, he surmised that they were after the same thing and wondered who their target was.[17]
Dressrosa Arc
Teach was heard talking with Jesus Burgess via Den Den Mushi, with Burgess stating that Aokiji could not be trusted. Hearing that Luffy had arrived, Blackbeard greeted the young pirate and expressed surprise that he was also a combatant in the Corrida Colosseum tournament for the Mera Mera no Mi. Knowing why Luffy entered the tournament, Teach assured him that Burgess would be the combatant to obtain the fruit and that it would be the same as having Ace join his crew, since Ace had rejected his previous offer. Luffy then angrily stated that he would never allow him to steal Ace's power.[18]

Christian Men Follow Their Counterparts at Walking Out
Lewisville, Texas. / PRBuzz / March 23, 2011 -- "He's gone! I don't know why, but he's gone." According to Dr. Steven B. DavidSon, Christian men are as likely to walk out on their families as non-Christian men. "I have to visit this topic regularly. I submit that if you visited most local churches, it would not be unusual to find this issue among the men."
When asked why he believes it is so prevalent? DavidSon offers a few reasons that affect large segments of the Christian population. "First, consider that about 70% of people in the United States profess to be Christian. So survey data is going to be skewed. This is one reason why it appears that Christians' rate of divorce is as significant as non-Christians. Obviously, men are a segment of this group."
"We can certainly identify the issue of poor leadership. It is so important for people to see leaders who uphold the virtues of integrity and sacrifice. Notice, I said sacrifice. Marriage as defined by Jesus is an impossible institution without the complete power of the Holy Spirit operating in a couple's relationship. People can do well for a period of time and then the wheels come off the relationship. Marriage is so untenable when the disciples learned Jesus' perspective of this binding institution, they reasoned 'we will not be getting married,'my version (Matthew 19:8-12). So, it is a very difficult institution to maintain through all of life's challenges."
When asked does he see any trends or patterns that are unusual? He responds with a sense of sadness. "You know, it's easier to explain when a fellow is inexperienced and youthful. However, it is not unusual for men ages 50 or older to forge a different direction. They often see their wives aging faster, particularly if they are the same or similar age. When you combine this with a wife who is dealing with severe life-change (i.e. menopause, depression, etc.), it is a volatile situation without other powerful factors to maintain the relationship. There is no mystery why they typically leave their wives for younger women. This is so crushing to women in the same age range who are battling with their own self image among other struggles. This is why I don't recommend that women marry men who are younger. There are exceptions, but it is counter intuitive.
By the way, women depart from relationships. However, they do not leave their relationships at the same rate as men, particularly where lengthy relationships are involved. It is very rare to witness a woman walking away from a 25 year relationship. When asked what he attempts to do to help men who seem determined to walk away? DavidSon is pragmatic. I must confess. I attempt to determine if there has been a sexual encounter with a 'lust interest.' If so, the best thing the wife can do is to Luke 15 him."
What Psychologist James Dobson and others call tough love, Dr. DavidSon prefers the more Christ-based term Luke 15. Luke 15 records the parable of the Father who loved his son, but showed the ability to honor his wayward son's desire by giving the son his inheritance and enabling him to depart. DavidSon continues, "The parable is pregnant with significance for any kind of love relationship where a party is determined to depart.
The key is prevention. Spouse must not cross the line. It is so rare for men or women to reverse themselves and gravitate back to the spouse once they've entered a sexual relationship outside the marriage. It is particularly daunting for men. Even when they try to recover, all it takes is a phone call, text, or email by the lust-interest. Like a power addiction, it could be months or years later. By the way, the age of the male does not matter. It is very rare for a man to depart without his eye on a mate. Jesus knew this. He redefined adultery. It is not necessary to touch a person. Adultery is committed when the spouse begins the sentimental contacts such as texts, phone calls, emails, and non sexual meetings. These are all a precursor to the consummation of the adultery in a sexual escapade (Matthew 5:28)." As with the prodigal, the other relationship has to settle and lose that lustful shine before the wayward husband comes to himself. Unfortunately, the break-up causes such emotional damage, it is usually too late."
Dr. DavidSon's organization has several videos and other support on-line to help couples or separated spouses deal with family and marital crisis at christbasedcounseling.org. "Personally, I have found that if there are no egregious vices such as abandonment, battery, infidelity and if the spouses are living together with some degree of peace this should be the focus. We attempt to make ourselves 'happy' in every area of life, which is impossible. 'If' we are men and women in the Lord, we need to make up our minds that whatever unhappiness we have it is only for a short while. Let's sacrifice what we desire concerning our marriages, and look to a time when we will be pleased eternally. No matter how many years we are upon the earth, it is not very long."

'Side Effects' Review: Steven Soderbergh Diagnoses Paranoid Fears in His "Final" Theatrical Outing
Posted on Friday, February 8th, 2013 by Russ Fischer
Steven Soderbergh, so often adventurous over the course of his career, closes out his theatrical run with the relatively conventional thriller Side Effects. Though the ideas within are familiar, a winding narrative path keeps predictability out of sight, and prevents Soderbergh and screenwriter Scott Z. Burns from ever falling back to one simplistic message. Soderbergh's own skill with the form allows him to pursue that path at length, without losing the plot.
Starting off with pharmacological paranoia, the two take clear inspiration from Rosemary's Baby, and toy with notions that call back to Hitchcock. But this is no throwback. Soderbergh has crafted a smart but pessimistic film rooted firmly in fears that are becoming more and more common today.
The film is built around a woman (Rooney Mara) who suffers from severe depression and falls into the care of a potentially dodgy psychiatrist. Side Effects traffics in the tone of modern paranoia that defined previous Soderbergh/Burns collaboration Contagion, and revels in the duplicity that was a cornerstone of their first partnership, The Informant!. The three films define something like an informal trilogy in which we are chronically disconnected, dishonest, and perhaps eventually doomed. Read More »

Reset Vs. The Pit!
Anyone here remember The Reset Button, a webcomic from nine years ago? No? Well, The Reset Button was a gaming webcomic from 2006, but instead of two dorks playing games like 99% of other gaming comics, the strip was about the video game characters themselves. Imagine if Video Game High School (the title alone was the plot of the original Reset comics) and Wreck it Ralph had a baby, but that baby was older than both of them by several years, and that was The Reset Button. Confused? Then click here.
Anyways, this is The Reset Button 2.0, or as I like to call it, The Reset Button Jr. Consider this comic a "light and fluffy" reboot. Whereas the original comics were crude and aimed for the South Park/Family Guy demographic, this one is suitable for all-ages. It isn't ready to launch yet, but I wanted to share a little something in the meantime. If you like what you see, you can "Like" us on Facebook and/or follow us on Twitter.
Anyways, enjoy the comic, and feel free to let me know what you think!

The legendary coach Jack Lengyel, who rebuilt Marshall University's football program after the tragic plane crash in 1970, will travel to Campbellsville University to promote the athletic department and its endeavor to fund raise, Sept. 25-26.
Lengyel will speak at the athletic fundraising dinner 6:30 p.m. Sept. 25 in the Banquet Hall in the Student Union Building at 110 University Drive, Campbellsville. Reservations can be made at the Office of Development at 270-789-5211.
Former Hawks baseball standouts Eric and Bryan Allen are viewing the game from another angle as both brothers are coaching the sport, one in high school and the other in college.
Eric, who graduated from LCHS in 2000, is assistant coach for the John Hardin High School Bulldogs. Bryan, a 2003 graduate, assists at St. Catharine College in Springfield.
Jimmy Lee, their maternal grandfather, recalls that the game has been a lifelong experience for both sons of Eddie and Mitzi Allen of Hodgenville.
Tonight's LaRue County vs. Elizabethtown high school football game is a contrast in styles.
For the second consecutive week, late-game heroics propelled LaRue County to a varsity football victory Friday.
The Hawks defeated Glasgow 28-24. Drew Newberry scored the go-ahead touchdown in the game's final minute.
Alex Lee gained 143 yards rushing for the Hawks and quarterback Jordan Brewer ran for one touchdown and threw for another.
LaRue came-from-behind last week to beat Green County 28-27. The latest win improves the Hawks' record to 3-1 on the season.
LaRue County's three-game road trip concludes Friday, Sept. 25, with a game at Elizabethtown.
On Sept. 1, the LaRue County Hawks boys' soccer team came out sluggish against the Eagles from Campbellsville, but the boys escaped with a 4-0 blanking at home.
Five minutes into the match, Dylan White rocketed his shot into the corner netting with the assist to fellow junior Dillon Walker. The junior attackers were unlucky as they traded passes and shots throughout the first half. The Hawks outshot the Eagles 11-2, in the half, but earned only a 1-0 lead. Intensity picked up in the second half as the offense pelted the opponents' goal mouth 12 times.
The LaRue County Lady Hawks continued their winning ways Sept. 8 against Hart County. The Lady Hawks won 25-11, 25-27 and 25-7.
"We played a great first and third set with Hart County tonight. The second set was great as well until we stopped playing to win and started making mistakes," said Coach Ben Schell.
The LaRue County Lady Hawks soccer team ventured on a long trip Aug. 31 to Monroe County and emerged victorious, 7-1. So dominating was the victory, the first of the season, that five different players left their mark on the scoreboard.
Not to be outdone, the middle-school attackers wrestled against the high-school junior varsity and played them to a 1-1 draw.
Junior Shelby Mouser began the onslaught after receiving a long kick from fellow junior Justine Scroggins. Scroggins took a free kick from midfield and delivered the ball to Mouser's feet.
Down to the last seconds, the Hawks pulled together a scoring drive to beat fourth-ranked and undefeated Green County at Greensburg 28-27 with 19.7 seconds on the clock during a rainy Friday night.
Hawks coach Rodney Armes gave accolades to both defensive and offensive efforts.
"Our offensive line did such a tremendous job Friday night," Armes said, "we ran the ball 95 percent of the time with sophomore Jordan Brewer being the difference maker."
Brewer got the nod as the starting quarterback Friday.
Within the confines of the LaRue County soccer teams are a tale of two players. One is quiet and unassuming; the other is boisterous and very confident in his abilities. The girl is the emergent leader of a small band of young ladies who play with heart and never quit. The boy is the confident leader of a group of young men who readily challenge anyone to step on their turf.

"So Bettianne and I put it up ourselves on the door to the baby's bedroom. And I love it. I walk up the steps every day and I see it in our new house on the door to the baby's bedroom and I feel like it's yet one more person keeping an eye on the baby. It doesn't bother me; doesn't seem to bother Matthew." She said it feels like the mezuzah is in the right place. "It's not on the door to our home because that's too big -- too much," she says. "Frankly, if someone had given me a tiny cross that meant something--" She cuts herself off. "There's this man that I see in the neighborhood all the time. He gave me this card for the saint of fertility and the saint of babies and this tiny little medal. And I was very touched by it and I've kept it next to me for my whole pregnancy because I thought, 'For him that means something and it's a nice thought.' It doesn't mean I'm converting to the Catholic Church. This is a nice man; he wishes me well, he wishes my child well. I wouldn't hang it, but it's nice to have."
The baby will have a Christmas tree. "Matthew and I get one every year, but it has no religious content. Growing up, it wasn't religious at all. My Mom and Dad loved the smell in the house -- I mean my stepfather, who raised me. We love the tradition of it -- we've had the same ornaments from the time before my oldest brother was born. It's about family and ritual -- the same things that I respond to in being a Jew."
Parker, born in Cincinnati, says her biological father's parents were "from that part of Eastern Europe that would go back and forth between being Russian and Polish." According to family lore, the name "Parker" was created by a series of miscommunications. "My great-grandfather on my father's side came over to Ellis Island. His name was Bar-Kahn, which means 'son of Kohen,' and the immigration officer thought he said 'Parken.' He wrote his N's like R's, so 'Parken' became 'Parker' and he was so happy to be in America and to have a business that was fairly thriving, that he never corrected his customers and he became Parker. So there's also great pride attached to this idea that we're Kohens," she says with a smile, referring to the fact that Kohens -- or Kohanim -- were the ancient line of high priests. "You know, the great tribe of Israel."
Parker believes her mother has Jewish blood as well, but that lineage is hard to trace. "According to Matthew, Hitler would have been perfectly happy to call me a Jew because there was enough Jewish blood in me that I was not a desirable. And I have, frankly, always just considered myself a Jew. Maybe I feel Jewish because my mother is very skeptical of organized religion in general and being a Jew felt more cultural to me. I was always responding to things that were Jewish.
"I think also because New York was this great jewel to us and it was such a Jewish city that I was so thrilled to identify with anybody from there, to be part of it." Parker's Jewishness, she says, is rooted in large part in nostalgia. "My father was raised on Ocean Avenue in Brooklyn -- he was on the Brighton Beach line. It's a very Jewish community. And every year on our summer visits, the people we spent time with were Jews. Whenever we came to New York on Sundays we always went to Chinatown. To us that was a very Jewish thing.

Not again. I can't let it all start over again. I've got to stop this madness, even if it costs me everything. I can't live if I take another life…and now Carissa.
She's the light that fills Cedar Hollow. She brings sunshine from the gloom that seems to haunt Cooper land. I'll take my own life before I lay a hand on—
But she knows too much about me. She's been searching for secrets that have to stay hidden, telling everybody she's gathering information for her school report. What if she's lying? Maybe the report is a cover-up….
Now that I think about it, she's been looking at me differently.
The kid is too smart for a twelve-year-old. She has other ways of knowing about me. I can't trust her. I trusted before and look what happened. I can't ever let my guard down or I'll lose everything.
I can't let Carissa tell what she knows.
* * *
Carissa Cooper stepped carefully along the muddy lane that led from the sawmill to the house, hugging the old business ledger that Dad had asked her to fetch. Aiming her flashlight at the tire tracks in front of her, she glanced into the darkness. Fear crept up and down her spine like spiders on patrol.
She wasn't usually scared of the dark anymore, but something about the movement of shadows bugged her. They shifted, changing shapes, skittering along the forested roadside with the movement of her flashlight, like the monsters that had waited for her in her closet and under the bed when she was six. She'd been scared of everything then, right after Mom left.
Now she knew better. Still, tonight she couldn't help imagining that eyes were watching her from those waiting clumps of brush and weeds.
If only her big brother Justin had come with her. If only he weren't still so mad at her.
"Should've kept my mouth shut," she muttered under her breath.
The sound of a quiet thud reached her from somewhere deep in the forest to her right. Horse's hooves? She stopped and listened, but all she heard was the whisper of leaves brushing against each other in a puff of wind. The branches made shadows leap across the trunk of the old walnut tree in the glow of her flashlight…like bony arms reaching out for her….
The breeze died and the movement stopped.
Carissa swallowed hard, sweeping the light around her. She had less than an eighth of a mile to go, and here she was acting like a 'fraidy cat. She brought the small circle of light back to the muddy track as she stepped forward again.
What was all the fuss about with Justin anyway? So he was weird. Nothing new. He wasn't the only weird person in their family; he was just acting a little weirder lately. His habits were always making them late to church, late to school. It was embarrassing. This morning she'd counted the number of times he'd checked the front door to make sure it was locked before they left for school. Seven. Same as yesterday. Monday it had been fourteen. Probably to make up for missing his counting process Sunday morning, since they hadn't gone to church.
And she was getting sick of him turning out all the lights in the house at night before everyone went to bed. Last night she was in the bathroom brushing her teeth when he turned out the light on her, and when Carissa shouted at him, Dad got onto her. It wasn't fair.
She shifted the business ledger under her arm. If she dropped it in this mud, Dad would freak. He didn't like his stuff dirty. He and her cousin Jill were probably already wondering what was taking her so long, even though the whole family knew she was doing research on the history of the Cooper sawmill and the deaths ten years ago that nobody would talk about. She could get a good grade on this report if she could dig up enough information, but did they care? No. What she wanted never mattered.
This morning had been the worst thing yet, when Mom had called and Dad wouldn't let her talk to Carissa or Justin. Then Dad had freaked when Carissa picked up the extension. How could he pretend Mom never existed? Sure, Mom had been a jerk, but she was their mother. How could kids be kept from seeing their own mother?
That sound again—that thump of something heavy hitting wet earth in a slow rhythm. Horsewalk.
"Gypsy, is that you?" Her mare wasn't supposed to be in the front pasture, but sometimes she jumped the fence.
Carissa shuffled the ledger beneath her arm to keep it from sliding out of her sweaty hand. It continued to slide. She grabbed for it and dropped the flashlight straight into a gooey puddle. The splatter of mud startled her. The darkness seemed to attack her with glee.
"Stop it, stupid," she muttered to herself, reaching into the puddle.
She came up with a handful of mud, and heard the splash of water mingled with a rustle of brush somewhere behind her. Heart banging in her chest, Carissa tried again, feeling through the slick goo for the flashlight. She searched with both hands, forgetting the book until it slipped from under her arm and fell, splashing her with more mud.
Oh no! Dad would freak. He'd warned her not to—
More rustling, closer.
Carissa froze, still stooped over, grasping the mud-slicked book. Had she really heard something? Was her mind playing tricks on her? She waited, holding her breath, listening.

I'm having a bit of a problem getting my custom JavaScript file to play nice in Google chrome when jquery is being loaded in my Magento site. This problem only seems to be appearing in Google chrome. I've tested for the problem in both Linux Ubuntu 10.10 (chrome 10.0.648.114 beta) and Windows XP (chrome 9.0.597.98). FF, Safari, IE don't seem to have this problem.
When jQuery is added to the JS files to include, my personal JS file does not work when a hard refresh is sent (force a 200 request of the js file). if I do a regular refresh (304 request of the js file) and have it load from cache, then it works.
I have gone so far as to create a dummy page outside my magento site and I'm still getting this problem when I include the JS files from the magento site. but, if I move the JS files outside the magento site it works fine?
I have caching disabled in my magento admin and to my knowledge there isn't any module or custom code/plugins that would affect JS files that are to be included.
Here is an example of my dummy page that is sitting in the root directory of my server
The only thing gearlists.js has in it, is
so I would expect two alert popups when I load that page. but on hard refreshes, I'm only getting one popup. "Internal".
If i turn around and do a regular refresh, both JS files are loaded from the browser cache w/ a 304 status code and I get two popups "External" then "Internal"
Does Not Work With Hard Refresh
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://VIRTUAL_SERVER_FOR_MAGENTO_SITE/catalog/js/jquery/jquery-1.5.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://VIRTUAL_SERVER_FOR_MAGENTO_SITE/catalog/js/ads/gearlists.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
Always Works
In this example, if I move the JS files out of the magento virtual server and into the root directory of my server, everything always works as expected. two popups are shown w/ every page refresh
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost/jquery-1.5.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost/gearlists.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
Now if I remove the jquery file from my test, my custom js file always works fine whether its served from withing my magento VS or not...There is always two popups.
I'm a bit stuck on what could be causing this. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

In fact the value of currency is psychological.
In fact it's not. Or more precisely, not only.
If one dollar buys one candy bar, why should that change if there are more dollars? Nothing has really changed in terms of the candy bar's production costs.
The price of an item is a function of its scarcity and of the effort required to create it. If everybody had lots of money, nobody would be willing to work to create more candy (why bother making candy for a buck a piece, when you can just shake the money tree in the backyard, and get more bucks with less effort?). So candy becomes a scarce resource, and everybody competes for the same limited amount of candy. The only way to get the sweet luxury is to pay more. The price of candy goes up, and will continue growing until either people give up on candy, or the price becomes high enough that making candy becomes profitable again.
While I am not going to contest the properties of supply and demand, I don't fully agree with you. Here is a fact: a dollar is only worth anything, because you believe it is. This is why the government has such a hard time with counterfeit money.
Now here is a thought experiment: Imagine for a moment that all the money in the world disappeared, and is no longer part of the equation. We'd still be able to build candy bars.

Parent is right. Its a relatively well known fact that chickens are the first cousins to dinosaurs. Besides, eggs were being laid before dinosaurs existed. I imagine that eggs were soft while being laid under/near the water. Once the animal evolved enough to walk onto land, and laid eggs on land, the eggs developed the hard shell -- the eggs as we know it today.

North Huntingdon to court businesses
North Huntingdon officials will work to attract offices, light manufacturing, research and high-tech businesses.
Township commissioners on Thursday asked Michael Turley, assistant township manager, to lead the initiative, with input from planners and commissioners.
"The ultimate goal would be for the township to attract the type of development that the board would like to see in the township," John Shepherd, township manager, said. "This board has talked about getting some higher-end office jobs, some light manufacturing … high-tech, research, biotech."
The area has easily attracted grocery stores and other businesses, he said.
North Huntingdon may hire a consulting firm to help draft an overall plan. Officials will inventory the township's land, concentrating on pieces ripe for such development, Shepherd said.
"They're good for the residents who live here, and it's good for our tax base. It's good to diversify," Shepherd said. "We have a lot of retail, we certainly have a lot of homes."
The effort culminates a series of joint meetings this year between commissioners and the planning commission. Those talks included a push to more proactively find businesses and to market the township, which has welcomed more than 1,000 homes over the past decade.
With the township's budgeting season approaching, now is a good time for these discussions, Shepherd said.

After winning his 23rd and final term, Rangel needs to start picking his replacement, fans say.
Beneath the surface of the racially charged campaign are common issues and goals, pundits said.
Melissa Mark-Viverito and Inez Dickens are positioning themselves for City Council Speaker.
The pair have taken shots at one another during the Democratic Primary for the Central Harlem seat.
Dickens says Morgan has no record, while Morgan criticized Dickens for not doing enough.
The Empire State Development Corporation says it will examine Columbia's hiring records.
The race for the 13th congressional district just got less crowded.
The group was formed in 2009 but has come under scrutiny for its practices.
The West Harlem Local Development Corporation is still facing calls to dissolve.
The board says it has "no confidence" in the West Harlem Local Development Corporation which is being investigated by the State Attorney General.
Vincent Morgan and Adam Clayton Powell IV join forces to criticize the community benefits agreement of Columbia University's $6.4 billion Manhattanville campus expansion.
The West Harlem Local Development Corporation, the focus of an investigation by Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, has spent more on consultants than programming.
Borough President Scott Stringer is trying to stop the group handling the $150 million Columbia University community benefits agreement with West Harlem to stop disbursing funds and reorganize.
Vince Morgan, a candidate for the Congressional seat held by Charlie Rangel, said the West Harlem Development Corp. is a "shell of an organization" incapable of accomplishing its goals.
Joyce Johnson accused Charles Rangel of avoiding questions from his challengers.
