"The best way to cut carbs from your diet is to make creative substitutions," says Arthur Agatston, M.D., author of The South Beach Diet. "That way you can still eat the foods you love, without busting your diet."
Dr. Agatston told us how to make cauliflower taste like mashed potatoes. Other nutrition experts gave us tricks for cutting white flour, pasta, and potatoes and replacing them with lower-carb alternatives that taste nearly identical. We then had some loyal carbo-cravers taste-test these dishes. Turns out some of them are so good, you'll wonder why you weren't eating them in the first place.

- CEO replacement under private information (2009)
- We study a model of "information-based entrenchment" in which the CEO has private information that the board needs to make an efficient replacement decision. Eliciting the CEO's private information is costly, as it implies that the board must pay the CEO both higher severance pay and higher on-the-job pay. While higher CEO pay is associated with higher turnover in our model, there is too little turnover in equilibrium. Our model makes novel empirical predictions relating CEO turnover, severance pay, and on-the-job pay to firm-level attributes such as size, corporate governance, and the quality of the firm's accounting system.

- Early-stage financing and firm growth in new industries (2009)
- This paper shows that active investors, such as venture capitalists, can affect the speed at which new ventures grow. In the absence of product market competition, new ventures financed by active investors grow faster initially, though in the long run those financed by passive investors are able to catch up. By contrast, in a competitive product market, new ventures financed by active investors may prey on rivals that are financed by passive investors by "strategically overinvesting" early on, resulting in long-run differences in investment, profits, and firm growth. The value of active investors is greater in highly competitive industries as well as in industries with learning curves, economies of scope, and network effects, as is typical for many "new economy" industries. For such industries, our model predicts that start-ups with access to venture capital may dominate their industry peers in the long run.

- Bank capital structure and credit decisions (2009)
- This paper argues that banks must be sufficiently levered to have first-best incentives to make new risky loans. This result, which is at odds with the notion that leverage invariably leads to excessive risk taking, derives from two key premises that focus squarely on the role of banks as informed lenders. First, banks finance projects that they do not own, which implies that they cannot extract all the profits. Second, banks conduct a credit risk analysis before making new loans. Our model may help understand why banks take on additional unsecured debt, such as unsecured deposits and subordinated loans, over and above their existing deposit base. It may also help understand why banks and finance companies have similar leverage ratios, even though the latter are not deposit takers and hence not subject to the same regulatory capital requirements as banks.
- 34
- Financing a portfolio of projects (2009)
- This article shows that investors financing a portfolio of projects may use the depth of their financial pockets to overcome entrepreneurial incentive problems. Competition for scarce informed capital at the refinancing stage strengthens investors' bargaining positions. And yet, entrepreneurs' incentives may be improved, because projects funded by investors with ''shallow pockets'' must have not only a positive net present value at the refinancing stage, but one that is higher than that of competing portfolio projects. Our article may help understand provisions used in venture capital finance that limit a fund's initial capital and make it difficult to add more capital once the initial venture capital fund is raised.

Hi All,
First of all I wnat to thank you all for the support I have recieved since I came to this board not long ago.
Sunday night I awoke with the worst headache I have ever had. I had an appointment at my Peri's office first thing Monday morning. My Peri was away so I had to see his asscoiate. My BP was high 148/94 and urine High Trace. I hadn't gained any weight in almost a month and fundal height is measuring small. They decided to admit me for observation. They did 3 NST's, bw, biophysical exam, and took my BP many times. Good news is baby is measuring perfectly, approx 4lbs 8oz. My BP has contnued to fluctuate which makes it untreatable by medication. I was finally sent home to be on strict bedrest. I have a Home Care Nurse coming daily to check my BP. They also sent home a BP monitor and protein strips.
I see my Peri next week and will have weekly Planning Scores.
I am feeling alittle overwhelmed. Do you think there should be anything else done at this point?
Thanks in advance for your advice and thoughts! They are always appreciated!

Sorry bro, I didn't have the patience to get through it. After a few more people weigh in, plz share your thoughts.
Depends a little on how you look at things.Those 4 fundamental forces (that are represented by the four horsemen according to some) are the foundation of this universe.John 1 [ACV]3 All things came to be through him, and apart from him not even one thing came to be that has come to be.That includes those 4 forces. Of course God having created those 4 forces doesn't exactly make Him those forces. But sometimes that line between things is very thin. Take for example "God is love". Is God truely love or is love a true and integral part of His personality/being? I think the last. But because it can't be seperated it's in a way also the first.The universe isn't God. God isn't the universe. But the universe can't be seperated from God, because without God the universe/4 forcees simply wouldn't exist. And makes me think about the "God is love" verse. I think it's correct to say God is the 4 forces if you also look beyond that. All love isn't God but God is love. The 4 forces aren't God but God is the 4 forces.
If you are interested in this sort of stuff I can dig up an article showing how the "Big Bang" is a pattern of the tribes/OT.All a bit vague
Sure, give us the link.
I must say the more i contemplate those very things WW the more i lean toward pantheism, but not fully. The line is much more blurry now
Quote from: redhotmagma on September 05, 2011, 12:44:11 AMI must say the more i contemplate those very things WW the more i lean toward pantheism, but not fully. The line is much more blurry nowPantheism is totally unbiblical. As I wrote I can see God is those 4 forces. But God also has to be more because for example those 4 forces don't interact with mankind like we see in the Bible. Neither do they write/inspire a Bible. Pantheism has several flavors but basicly means God=UniversePanentheism: The universe is inside of God. That last view isn't unBiblical I think. 3:22am here. Time for deep sleep instead of deep thoughts. Nite
Since no one wants to watch it, I'll give you an overview.1). The video parodies a clip from the pro-atheist movie "Zeitgeist" in which a man attacks theism.2). The producers of the apologetic video redefines the term supernatural to include natural phemonon that can not be detected by the five natural senses.3). He concludes that God is the four fundamental forces of nature: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong nuclear force, and the weak nuclear force.My problem with the apologetic video is that it borders on pantheism.

Culbreath: Sports integrity takes a diveWritten by Matt 'Shaggy' Culbreath | | firstname.lastname@example.com
There's nothing in sports I hate more than diving.
No, not into a pool, ya dink. Granted, it's not my favorite Olympic sport, and I typically stay away from pools. The world doesn't need to see me without a shirt on. You're welcome.
I mean faking fouls to gain advantages. Once the tool of international soccer players (not hating, futbol fans, but you know it's true), it's taken quite the hold in American sports. The NBA may be the most egregious offender, but it's infecting other sports as well. Both college and pro football have dedicated "fall guys" to drop like a stone in case the team needs a timeout. Hockey has long dealt with embellishment, and in fact have built in a 2 minute minor if anyone is particularly egregious. And while coaches have always been complicit, I've never expected them to be directly involved.
Enter two incidents recently: Brooklyn Nets coach Jason Kidd "spilling his soda", and Pittsburgh Steelers Coach Mike Tomlin "being too close to the sideline". Both coaches knew exactly what they were doing, and both coaches were caught red handed.
For Kidd, behind to the LA Lakers and out of timeouts, suddenly was struck by one of his players, causing him to spill his soda on the court. While he cleaned up and the stadium crew mopped up the floor, Kidd's assistants knelt with the team and a whiteboard, drawing up a play. When going to the tape, you can read Coach Kidd's lips loud and clear: "Hit me."
(An interesting note: the Lakers knew exactly what was going on, because two of their players sat in the Nets' huddle. Since it's not an official timeout, they can't keep them out.)
On the gridiron, with the Pittsburgh Steelers playing Baltimore, Coach Mike Tomlin found himself a little farther out on the sideline in the middle of a kick return by Jacoby Jones. Jones had his defender beat and was on his way for 6, when Tomlin made a move to "jump out of the way", which caused Jones to make a cut, and allowed his defender to get him from behind.
The good news is that both coaches were called out on the carpet. Kidd was fined $50,000 for his spill. Tomlin got it even worse: $100,000, and quite possibly losing a draft pick. But the implication is far worse: that teams simply don't care about the rules anymore. Winning just means too much. Too much money, too much glory. People say they like integrity, but they like winning more.
Why else would Urban Meyer keep Dontre Wilson and Marcus Hall on the team for the Big Ten Championship Game after their ejections from the Michigan game? Granted, their ejections were the result of some egging on by the guys in Maize and Blue, and I would expect that if Michigan makes a bowl, that Royce Jenkins-Stone would also be suspended. But especially for Maurice Hall, whose double-birds as he walked out of the Big House were the lasting image of this year's edition of The Game, a statement needed to be made about having character through adversity. Urb could make the statement that those kind of breakdowns would not be permitted on his team, or he could take a dive in leadership. Say "well, he was suspended for the rest of that game, so that counts", just so he can get his advantage in Chicago.
That may be the message of modern sports: integrity matters, until it flies in the face of victory. In that case, then throw out the book, and dive after it.

When you buy a vacuum cleaner you get wands that can be attached to the hose. These wands and the accessories attached to them enable you to poke into areas where the vacuum cannot go. There are times when the suction of the vacuum can cause the wand to become stuck on the hose. Here we look at the ways to remove a wand that is stuck on the vacuum cleaner hose.
The wand is stuck on my vacuum cleaner- How to take it out.
•Hold the end of the telescoping wand where it is attached to the hose. Press the release button with one hand.
•Now twist the end of the wand clockwise and then counter-clockwise. All this time the release button should be depressed.
•Pull the wand off the hose while twisting it. Release the button only when the wand is free of the hose.
•Another way is to lubricate the wand. Hold the hose in such a way that the wand is facing down.
•Spray a good burst of lubricating spray around the seam where the hose meets the wand.
•Hold the hose in the same position for a couple of minutes before twisting the end of the wand clockwise with one hand while turning the end of the hose anti-clockwise with the other hand. Continue twisting until the wand comes free of the hose.

Hela Curry Ketchup 3 3
curry ketchup love it!!! excellent taste.... great value, creamy, great on burgers ,fries, in meatloaf any sauce.... February 14, 2014
This curry ketchup is amazing!!! I fell in love with Curry Ketchup while living in Germany and enjoying it on bratwurst. I searched all over the Pacific Northwest for it and was so happy to find it at the World Market. It is very authentic! The name is a bit misleading since it is much more like a curry BBQ sauce then ketchup...delicious!!! We enjoy it on burgers too. October 15, 2012
Not quite right I was looking for something that would be comparable to HP Curry Sauce, which I love, but is so hard to find in the U.S. Thought this might be the thing, but found that it tastes much more of sweetness than of curry-ness. Just sweet ketchup, really. June 14, 2013

The Fort Dorchester boys battled through two overtime periods Friday at Ashley Ridge to earn a 75-66 victory.
The first three periods featured multiple lead changes. The Patriots ended the third with a 10-0 run to take a 46-38 lead.
Fort Dorchester (9-3, 1-1) extended the lead to 11 points in the fourth, but the Swamp Foxes (5-10, 0-2) never gave up the fight and went on a 7-0 run late in the period.
Trailing by 2 with only 90 seconds remaining in regulation, the Swamp Foxes needed a big defensive play and got it when Tyquan Tucker made a steal. A shot on the other end of the court bounced off the rim with approximately 60 seconds remaining but Raekwon Jones tipped it into the goal for a 55-55 tie.
Fort Dorchesters Eric Hayward drove the lane in the closing seconds hoping to get a basket or at least a foul but his shot was blocked cleanly.
In overtime, the Patriot seniors took charge to earn the Fort the win.
Dimitri Carter grabbed eight rebounds, scored 13 points and made two steals in the two overtime periods. Hayward had 6 points and three rebounds in the overtime periods.
Our coaches prepare us for adversity such as overtime, Carter said. We were prepared for it and we just stuck together and kept our heads in the game. We run a lot during practice so fatigue wasnt really an issue. The adrenaline kicked in and we just focused on our game.
It seemed the Patriots had the game won in the first overtime period when Carter hit a pair of free throws for a 2-point Fort lead with only 5 seconds remaining. However, Jones quickly drove the ball across mid court and passed to Corbin Landers. For the third time in the game and the second time in the overtime period, Landers sank a shot from behind the arc for a 63-all tie.
The Patriots pulled ahead in the second overtime period but the Swamp Foxes managed to stay within 3 until the final 60 seconds. Then Fort Dorchester grabbed some key rebounds and made free throws to secure the win.
Both teams had two players post double-digit scoring.
Carter led all scorers with 21 points and Hayward finished with 20. Tucker led the Swamp Foxes with 17 points and Sean White finished with 14 points.
The night marked the third straight loss in overtime for the Swamp Foxes, who also suffered overtime losses to Bluffton and Stratford.
FORT DORCHESTER (75): Dimitri Carter 21, Eric Hayward 20, Reese 9, Hamilton 7, Synpe 6, Fields 4, Bennett 3, Munoz 2, Harris 2, McFadden 1
ASHLEY RIDGE (66): Tyquan Tucker 17, Sean White 14, Landers 9, Brown 8, Jones 6, Jenkins 5, Garland 5, Smith 2.

- Spin polarization of electrons induced by strong collisional magnetic fields (1981)
- We calculate the spin polarization of 1sσ vacancies and emitted δ electrons induced by the strong magnetic field (|Bmax|∼1016G) in collisions of very heavy ions (Z1+Z2=178). The electron excitations are determined by the solution of coupled-channel equations within the quasimolecular basis states including the vector potential. The formulation is extended to the many-electron case. Spin polarizations of the order of 5-10% for impact energies below the Coulomb barrier are predicted.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 600,000 kids end up in the emergency room each year for sports-related dental accidents. And according to the CDC, a mouth guard may prevent 200,000 oral injuries a year and decrease injuries to the teeth by 60 percent.
"It's important that youth develop good habits in sports early on, including the use of mouth guards," said Dr. Katina Morelli, dental director for Delta Dental of Illinois. "Wearing a mouth guard not only protects the teeth and jaw, but it can also act as a shock absorber and help prevent other injuries."
At "Children's Dental Health Awareness Night" on Feb. 2 and throughout the month of February, Delta Dental of Illinois and the Chicago Wolves will promote the importance of good oral health habits, including mouth guard use, for children.
"We are excited to partner with Delta Dental of Illinois to help educate Illinois youth about the importance of mouth guards and dental health," said Mike Gordon, Wolves President of Business Operations. "Like our players know all too well, the best way to prevent an injury to the mouth is by simply wearing a mouth guard."
Although mouth guards are only mandatory for some youth sports, such as ice hockey, football and lacrosse, dental professionals recommend they be worn for all athletic activities where there is a strong potential for contact with other participants or hard surfaces.
But according to the 2011 Delta Dental Children's Oral Health Survey, 68 percent of Americans report that their child does not wear a mouth guard at soccer, basketball, baseball and softball practices or games. And studies show that today's basketball players are 15 times more likely to sustain an oral-facial injury than football players.
Mouth injuries in both hockey and football have dropped dramatically since mouth guards became mandatory. However, even in hockey – a sport requiring protective gear – only 44 percent of Americans report that their child wears a mouth guard at both practice and games and 22 percent wears a mouth guard just at games. According to Safe Kids USA, most organized sports-related injuries occur during practice rather than games.
"Parents need to encourage their young athletes to get in the habit of wearing mouth guards whenever they participate in sports, whether it's for practice or games," said Dr. Morelli.

Los Angeles, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin reportedly has a back injury that forced him to withdraw from the U.S. basketball team for this summer's FIBA World Cup.
According to the Los Angeles Times, Griffin has a small fracture in his back that won't require surgery. Instead, rest should heal the injury and allow Griffin to be ready for training camp in September.
Griffin was one of 19 players selected to the USA roster. The team will play in Spain at the event previously known as the World Championship from Aug. 30- Sept. 14.

Comedy icon Henry Winkler stars in surrealistic 'Childrens Hospital'Written by Jeff McGinnis | | firstname.lastname@example.com
Henry Winkler apologized for being a bit under the weather as he began his interview with Toledo Free Press Star, but one could never have guessed that from the enthusiasm in his voice. The iconic comic actor was thrilled as he shared details of his newest project. A series of children's books he wrote about a character named Hank Zipzer, inspired by his own childhood experiences growing up dyslexic, is being turned into a television series by the BBC.
"I'm leaving in the middle of September, and I'm going to play the music teacher," Winkler said of the project.
"But this is a major thing in my life, because I … we tried to sell them, and over the years, for some reason, we couldn't sell them. And now they're going to be on the BBC.
"It's amazing. I'm not kidding, it's like you've climbed Mount Everest, and you can open a bottle at the top. For me, it would be seltzer water."
It's clearly an exciting time for Winkler, and not just because of the Zipzer project on the horizon. Between his memorable turns on "Arrested Development" and "Royal Pains," the actor and producer — famous worldwide for his portrayal of The Fonz on the classic series "Happy Days" — has been seeing a remarkable revival as a performer in recent years.
What may be his most prominent current role, though, comes from a very unusual source — a 15-minute television show. That began life as a Web series. Which, despite being live-action, airs on a network devoted to animation.
"Childrens Hospital," creator and star Rob Corddry's bizarrely hilarious satire of medical dramas, recently began its fifth season on Cartoon Network's late-night comedy block Adult Swim. Winkler was on hand reprising his role as hospital administrator Sy Mittleman.
"I got a call that Rob Corddry would like to invite you to be on 'Childrens Hospital,'" said Winkler, who joined the cast in its second season. "And then, there it was. And I was smart enough to say yes. Because I had no idea — I go completely on my instinct and I had never seen the webisodes. And boom, here we are."
Surrounded by actors who are deliberately playing over-the-top and gleefully surrealistic, Winkler's portrayal of the relatively subdued Mittleman stands in stark contrast — which the actor said was completely by design.
"He's kind of like the head of the hospital, so he has to have a little — a little weight. But he gets tangled up in all of these people, and has no idea what they're talking about. I mean, I'm telling you, there are times when we're doing the show, and I'm thinking to myself, 'What the hell am I talking about?' I don't have the slightest idea. And somehow, it all seems to work out.
"That is Rob, that is [producers] David Wain and Jon Stern. They are in control, they are very … concerned and very aware of how a scene is going. They're there all the time. They allow us to improvise, but if we go too far from their vision, it's pulled back. It is a well-thought-out chaos."
It's clear that this newfound renaissance as an actor delights Winkler, who made it plain that he's still not quite sure how it happened. "It was not totally my decision. Mitch Hurwitz asked me to be the lawyer for the Bluths (on 'Arrested Development'). And I was supposed to do one episode. I stayed for four years, you know? On 'Royal Pains,' I went in, I played the dad, I was supposed to do, like, a few episodes. And I just finished my episodes for season five. It's just amazing to me."
There have been some adjustments to be made for this new era of comedy — while back in the early days of Winkler's career, multicamera sitcoms in front of an audience were the rule, these days single-camera shows dominate.
"The only difference — because acting is acting is acting — the only difference is, when you do multicam, you have an audience that dictates your timing," Winkler said. "You hear the laugh, you have to be, as an actor, aware of the laugh. You have to be aware of the apex of the laugh, and then start your next line as it starts to wane.
"In the one camera — like doing a scene with Malin Akerman or with Megan Mullaly or Rob Huebel — these people are so genuinely funny, that you have got to concentrate. Because Megan will do something, and I will think to myself, 'Wow. I wish I had thought of that. Wow, how did she get there?' And I totally forget it's my next line."
But no matter the example — whether it's "Hospital," "Arrested," "Royal Pains" or more —Winkler said there is usually a common ground among shows that garner the love of their audience. Even his most famous one.
"You know, what is true about all the shows we've talked about so far — even back to 'Happy Days,' with Garry Marshall and Tom Miller and Eddie Milkis — every show had a point of view. And the creators were true to their point of view. And everything had to fit — everything has to fit into the vision of their perception of what they want from the show. And it's pretty amazing."

We are all told that we need plenty of fruits and vegetables in our diets, and, yes, it can cost more money to eat fresh fruit than many of the processed foods out there.
But for most of us, the cost is not the biggest factor in what we stuff in the grocery cart. Those high-calorie corn chips, breakfast doughnuts and ice cream cost as much as or more than the healthier choices. And the more money we make, the more likely we are to get a few of those fresh fruits into our diets anyway.
But when you don't make much money and you live in a food desert, the decision on what to take home with you is more carefully considered.
Food deserts are areas where there is a lack of traditional grocery stores such as portions of North Charleston and rural areas of Berkeley and Charleston counties, and where there are a high number of people who live a mile or more from a grocery store and lack a car.
The cost of food is so much higher in those areas for two reasons: The choice of fresh food is limited, and what is there is much more expensive. Shoppers have to weigh the extra cost of the food locally versus the cost to go to a grocery store and try to get the food home by taxi, a ride from a friend or bus.
Experts have tried to make a correlation between the distance to a grocery store and obesity, but the issue is more complex than that.
The cost of an apple can vary widely across a city, and you can actually get a much better deal in a suburban grocery store on those foods than you can in areas where the stores are scarce.
It turns out that a study conducted in Detroit shows that price may be a better indicator of whether someone on a limited budget is likely to choose fresh food and, thus, be able to control their weight better.
A 2012 study released last month by researchers at Michigan State University and published in Urban Studies, titled "Price and Expenditure Elasticities for Fresh Fruit in an Urban Food Desert," examines the effect of availability of fruits and vegetables on the demand for these goods.
The researchers compared the amount of money people spent on fresh food relative to their income, and they compared fruit sales between suburban grocery stores and those at an inner-city nonprofit grocery store.
It turns out that when you have less money to spend and the fruit is much more expensive, you are less likely to put it in your cart. But when the cost of an apple at the urban store was the same as the suburban store, there was a greater likelihood that it would be purchased.
According to the study, "When consumers spent more, their purchases of many fruits increased by an even greater amount: A 1 percent rise in spending increased banana purchases by 1.18 percent, oranges by 1.74 percent, apples by 2.15 percent and lemons by 1.26 percent.
"If prices increased, fruit purchases dropped, but not as much as the price increase: For a 1 percent rise in prices, purchases of bananas fell by 0.33 percent, apples by 0.28 percent, and oranges by 0.54 percent. This suggests that demand for these fruits is relatively inelastic, even if prices go up, consumers will make it a special priority to get some amount of fruit in their grocery order.
"Within the fruit group, income plays a much more important role in the purchasing decisions of Detroit food desert residents than price compared with consumers more representative of the average American."
One of the study's conclusions is that obesity could be greatly helped in those food desert areas by lowering the price of fresh food and vegetables to suburban levels. People will buy apples and bananas if they can get them for a fair price.

After reading the general opinion about this seasons TUF.. everyone seems to think that the talent level is awful, and that the seasons have been boring.. and no ones really liking this season so far..
I disagree with the majority of what has been said.. and I made a thread about it cuz I dont want this to get lost in the many threads there are now.. kinda want to get a more organized conversation about TUF going right now..
anyways, people seem to think that Rampage has been a bad coach or has no business really coaching.. well heres my opinion.. outside of BJ and Serra.. none of the guys who have been coaches for TUF.. were coaches before hand.. nor do they even wanna be coaches.. so they should be cut some sort of slack.. but in all seriousness.. I dont see how Rampage is doing a bad job..
Look at Brandon Sene.. his fight before the show.. he didnt look that good, I thought he'd be one of the worse of the picks.. Dante was viewed as one of the best, he went out and dominated.. look at what kind of hell Sene gave Dante.. that has to be a testament to Rampage's coaching.
Forrest is doing a damn good job too.. but you cant judge coaching on how many fights a coach has won.. theres limited time to train or rehab or anything on these shows.. the only way to really judge how good a coach is doing is by that short-term improvement.. and Brandon Sene is a good example of Rampage's coaching so far.. the only people that are really doing any coaching is the people Forrest and Quinton bring in.. Forrest and Quinton are like your head coaches on an NFL team.. they motivate the players, get them ready, tell them what they have to do.. the guys they bring in are doin the teaching.. there like the coordinators.. they drill technique, etc.. and its still up to the players to listen, and go out and perform.
As far as this season being boring.. im definently alone on this one.. I feel like this has been the best season since season 1.. just because theres anticipation for next week's episode.. Jeremy May makes things interesting.. so does Rampage and Forrest.. I will admit.. I do like watching reality TV and that reality TV aspect of this season is what keeps me tuned in but aside from that I feel like this season has had the best fights so far! and will continue to put on even better fights.
As far as the talent is concerned, I mos def disagree here... Last season had a low level of talent.. you had only Mac Danzig..
This season you got about 4 or 5 Mac Danzig's.. id put money on Gerald Harris, CB Dolloway, Amir Sadolah, and Jesse Taylor as either close to or on Mac's level.. and theres a lot of guys who are 2-0.. 1-0.. just generally unproven that could become something as well
so far this season has been the equievelant to Season 1.. the talent is what it should be.. you shouldnt have seasoned guys on there like Mac Danzing, or Joe Stevenson.. Diego Sanchez.. etc.. you should have unproven, young guys who can be groomed into good fighters.. not fighters that are already good and are just using TUF to get into the UFC IE: Michael Bisping.

If federal sequestration occurs in January and substantial budget cuts kick in, the effects will be felt on not just government contractors but businesses throughout Maryland, economists say.
Such a situation is extremely difficult to plan for, said executives with local contractors.
"It takes a lot of time to plan for the uncertainty," said Judy Stephenson, president of Gaithersburg software training company Officepro, which gets some 80 percent of its business from federal contracts. "How do you plan for something that might not happen? It's very frustrating."
The federal Budget Control Act of 2011 detailed initial cost reductions of almost $1 trillion during the next decade designed to help offset debt ceiling increases of as much as $2.1 trillion. Further cuts could push the total well above $1 trillion. A bipartisan congressional "super committee" authorized to specify where the reductions will come from failed to do so last year, and across-the-board cuts will begin Jan. 2 if Congress does not change the plan by then.
In a memo to employees this week, Robert Stevens, CEO of Bethesda military and aerospace contracting giant Lockheed Martin, and Lockheed President Chris Kubasik wrote that the company will not issue notices about impending layoffs related to sequestration this year. The Department of Defense does not anticipate any "contract actions" on Jan. 2 and "any action to adjust funding levels on contracts as a result of sequestration would likely not occur for several months" after Jan. 2, the executives said.
"We remain firm in our conviction that the automatic and across-the-board budget reductions under sequestration are ineffective and inefficient public policy that will weaken our civil government operations, damage our national security and adversely impact our industry," Stevens and Kubasik wrote. "We will continue to work with leaders in our government to stop sequestration and find more thoughtful, balanced and effective solutions to our nation's challenges."
The National Institutes of Health in Bethesda will face an 8.2 percent budget reduction, or a cut of about $2.5 billion, according to a recent report from the federal Office of Management and Budget. NIH Director Francis Collins testified to a Senate subcommittee this year that the cuts would mean the agency would have to reduce the number of grants it awards to subcontractors by about 2,300 next fiscal year.
The U.S. economy could return to a recession if all the budget reductions kick in and major tax cuts scheduled to expire at the end of the year are not extended, Economic Policy Institute researchers Josh Bivens and Andrew Fieldhouse said in a recent report. They recommended repealing the automatic sequestration spending cuts, along with boosting unemployment insurance and infrastructure spending.
Analyst: Not likely anything done until after elections
It is unlikely that anything will be done about the so-called "fiscal cliff" until after the Nov. 6 elections, said Daraius Irani, director of the Regional Economic Studies Institute's applied economics and human services group at Towson University. "It will really impact Maryland since there are so many federal workers and contractors here," he said.
Maryland had about 145,000 federal workers in August, some 5.6 percent of its total workforce. Federal workers constitute about 2 percent of the national workforce.
The budget cuts could have a ripple effect on many other industries, including small businesses, Al Wurglitz, principal at law firm Miles & Stockbridge, said in a recent meeting of the Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce's Small Business Committee. The impact would extend to areas such as leasing commercial real estate, the retail and service industries, and state and local governments, according to a chamber summary of the meeting.
The meeting was particularly an eye-opener for some small businesses that do not have federal contracts, said Stephenson, vice chairwoman of the chamber's Small Business Committee.
"There is a ripple effect," she said. "It will not just impact government contractors."
Many of Officepro's federal agency clients are not making decisions on contracts for next year until the budget situation is resolved, Stephenson said.
"This is not really anything too new to us," she said. "That is fairly standard anyway. But this is more uncertain."
Contractors already have made cuts in staffing and other areas in previous years, Stephenson said.
"Most are pretty lean already," she said.
Her company has six full-time employees and works with about 20 contractors.
"We will be unable to utilize [the contractors if sequestration occurs]," Stephenson said.
Innovative Business Interiors of Silver Spring, which provides commercial furniture, has federal subcontracts occasionally, but nothing is currently in jeopardy, said company President Charles Atwell. The situation comes at a difficult time for many employers that are still recovering from the Great Recession, he said.
"It adds to the lack of stability," said Atwell, co-chairman of the chamber's Small Business Committee.

not at the same time of course ....
I can swallow a banana whole AND tie a knot in a cherry stem with my tongue ...
I can vouch for Aggie's talents.
When I passed the motorcycle test. I was training so long and so hard that I was really proud when I
finally pass the test and could start to drive. Even the guy who teach me to drive said that, he knew I wanted
the license cause I just continue even if I failure most of the time. But now the license is mind and I am proud that I don't give up.
I'm not particularly proud of anything. I've gotten an Associate's Degree, but it wasn't the Bachelor's degree I expected to have. I've mostly managed not being an alcoholic the last few years which is good. I've also managed to live a pretty crime free life and try my best not to be much of a bother. I've also been unemployed for 8 months or so now which is making me really itchy.
I suppose the biggest accomplishment is my marriage; we've been married 3 whole months! I love my husband dearly, and he and I are a good match. Even though I'm absolutely insane.
I am actually gonna rat you out on this one, because I have *watched* your biggest accomplishment. Since you came to live here to go to school, you've made some really big, positive changes, and it might not seem like it, but you have done some things that a lot of people never, ever manage to. You have figured out that you can strongly disagree with someone on core issues and still cherish that person dearly, you have recognized that you were headed down a path that was not a good match and changed direction, and you have become much more responsible in practical matters. Basically, in a very short span of time, you grew up. It was pretty awesome to watch.
I have worked with children with Autism since I got out of college (about ten years ago). After a few years, a coworker of mine (who actually has a daughter with Autism) wanted to start a social skills group for kids with Autism, and asked me to run the group. That was about 6 years ago, and now (this is in addition to my full-time job, of which I am also proud) I run 4 groups a week and have seen so much progress. I take every opportunity I get to thank my friend for giving me the chance to begin such a positive experience in my life, and I am so proud of how far we've come and how many lives that we've touched!
Aww, shucks.
Jason is a weirdo, but he's pretty even keeled. :P

Poll: Do you want an LED notification light on the next iPhone?
The iMore forums are hopping over a post from sparro who wants nothing more than an LED notification light on the iPhone 5.
Sparro wasn't satisfied with the LED camera flash accessibility feature added in iOS 5 and is hoping for a full on, front-facing, blinking, bugging notification light in the next iPhone.
BlackBerry lovers consider it part of what puts the crack in CrackBerry and some obviously feel lost when they switch to iPhone and lose it. Even Android seem content when their phones blink and beep at them like R2D2 with something stuck in his holo emitter.
So does the iPhone need it? Is it not enough that the whole display lights up when a new alert hits the lock screen? Do we need a blinking light as well? Or is getting away from the LED the whole reason you switched to iPhone to begin with?
Vote up top, and then head on over to the iMore forums and let sparro know how you feel about the notification LED!

Poll: Do you want an LED notification light on the next iPhone?
The BEST design for this would be a glowing apple logo...it's sooo apple and it would be amazing if there were different colors for different notifications ESP battery draining ;););) PLEASE write a post about this so maybe apple will read! Lol
They already have that feature. In accessibility options you can make your flash blink for any alert, SMS or call. It's great. So no. I am not for adding more clutter to the external design. If you want simple great designed products stick with apple. If you want unnecessary add-ons get an htc android phone. I'll stick with Apple.
+1 for SolidRock's idea of the home button. I use the flash feature on my iP4, but it's useless if my phone is on the desk face up, having it built into the home button eliminates clutter, but effectively provides the solution. Also, I would imagine lighting up an led light would use less energy than lighting up an entire screen.
Exactly. The light isn't any good if it's blocked. There would have to be two lights, on front and back. The built-in gyro could tell iOS which way is "up" and only illuminate the LED facing up, to save battery power. (And if the iPhone is more or less standing on its edge, it could illuminate both.)
LED notification light isn't necessary. I pretty much ignored it when I had my BlackBerries. What we need is the ability to customize email alerts for individual contacts and each email account plus the choice to silence any email account or contact. Separate icons/folders on the homescreen for each email account (instead of just the one all-inclusive "Messages" icon) are needed. I miss the separate email folders and the red asterisks on my BB! Separate signatures for each email account would be great too as well as being able to choose the "reply to" field. Then the iPhone would be perfect. :-)
*cough* ios cannot allow that level of customisation. Android can. *walks away and waits for the trolls
I too have been saying that the ring on the home button should be illuminated for notifications. Or, even a ring around the home button itself.
Think about it, the space between the front & the home button could emit a small amount of light that could be elegant & tasteful, without intrusive flashlight style camera LED lights flashing. Perhaps it could even be colour coded to determine which type of notification it is... or perhaps it blinks once for SMS/MMS & twice for an email.
The possibilities are endless, Apple only needs to implement them!
When I took the leap from Blackberry Bold to iPhone 4s this was the one feature I missed SOOOOOO much!!! This would be amazing to have on the next iPhone!!! I miss it so much!!
Hell no. Period. But the home bottom idea sound ok.
Yes with a LED notification alert and the home button should light up too. That would be awesome!
It would be nice if the home button white square bit glowed on and off to signify a notification (like the HP Touchpad). You could set it to that only certain apps can use the notification light as well so you only get a light on email, sms etc not whenever someone sends you a draw something or facebook
There is nothing worse than getting all amped up to respond to an LED triggered notification only to find out it's for and ad or something else unimportant. The best thing about Apple's approach is that you don't turn into one of Pavlov's dogs and become a slave to the technology because the technology is slave to you.
I don't want a light, I want a little screen.
I'd like little mini icons as notifications.
And then tie it into VIPs, notification settings, overnight notification turnoffs and such.
Like I may want an icon for VIPs that send me email and nothing more.
Didnt samsung make an android phone like that, with a little "ticker"/2nd screen for stuff like that?? Think it was on VZW & didnt sell too well at all. (this is legit question/comment, not troll bait, so please chill with the apple/android love/hate in responses) <~~~sucks that I feel the need to type that
Yeah, it was part of their original Galaxy S line. It was one of those ideas that sounded really cool and even looked good in demonstrations, but became *really* obnoxious and cumbersome after I'd had it in my hand for a few minutes.
I don't need no stinking blinking light! What I do need is a iPod nano that is a watch has blue tooth and notifications. It could vibrate on my wrist ( different vibrate tones for different notifications ). I could get my stuff done and decide wich notification I will look at and Anwer. Simple solution.
The only phones I ever used that had notification LEDs were Palm Tréos. The first thing I did whenever setting one up was to install software that allowed me to disable it for anything but a battery charge indicator. I do so many different minds of messaging on my phone that such a simple indicator is completely useless, other than to waste battery since it will /always/ be on or blinking. A simple indicator like this might work for some, but if you have time to stare at it, why not just tap the freakin' home button and get a brief lock screen display from notification center showing you what's actually waiting?
I too want an LED notification light, but to put it on the home button would not make sense. If you have an OtterBox like me (or any similar case) you would miss out on the feature because the case covers up the home button.
If it doesn't drain too much battery, I think the Apple logo on the back would be a cool and sufficient alternative.
i want one. make the home button circle (the white part) a light that blinks. But i want it customizable. i don't want it going off for facebook, or twitter. I only want it for voicemail and text. i don't want to have it blinking all day for stuff that's not important. i get too much email, and facebook and twitter isn't important though i do have them. That's why it should be customizable. So that each user can have it flash for what suits them.
i had it on my crappy palm pre, well after hacking it, but i do miss it. tried the flash but i never see it cause i don't lay my phone face down.
I would like to see it as an option with a switch where I can turn it off, and when in use restrict it to certain callers or types of notifications. I personnally check my phone often enough to know what is going on, so it's not that important to me, but there are times when I'm expecting a call or message, and having a good visual indicator that I've received it would be helpful. It's not on my top 10 "want" list, but I would use it on occasion if it was available. Someone above mentioned using the white space in the home button for a notification light, and I agree that would be a great place for it - not a separate (ugly) LED, and invisible when you are not using it.
I would love a notification indicator that would be visible for a longer period of time than the current "notification". The current one is great if you are in close proximity to your phone...but if you are away for more than a minute, black screen and you need to activate the screen.
I have been a long time BlackBerry user and love the iPhone 4s that I have switched to,,.but it needs a better notification. Whether it be a blinking LED light or the home button "glowing" I need a better notification indicator.

I would buy a 20" stainless fluted heavy barrel barrelled A3 upper with a drop in match trigger. Cost around a grand for the gun. Leaves 500 for mount and scope. Helped my dad put together one from model1sales on a RRA lower. Shoots 2-3" at 200 yards with premium ammo on a calm day. Definately minute of Coyote.
Not a hypothetical question. I have it, and will be using it to send my RPD kit to Pirate as soon as the next run of receivers is available.
It doesn't matter which brand you get - Stag, RRA, DPMS, etc; all can be had for ~$1000. Spend the rest on goodies and optics. I'd go red dot with 3x flip up.

Or at least under most circumstances you can.
Walmart made a big noise yesterday by announcing that it was about to begin selling iPhones with no contract and a $45-a-m0nth unlimited phone, data, and messaging plan. The chain is offering the iPhone 4 for $449 and the iPhone 5 for $649.
Gizmodo called the deal "ridiculously cheap" and declared that "if you go with anything else, you're probably a sucker." Jason Evangelho, at Forbes.com, wrote that the deal "could put the hurt on carriers like Verizon and AT&T," pointing out that after two years a Walmart iPhone 5 would cost the buyer a total of $1,729, while the same thing from AT&T would come to $3,550.
However, if you don't have to have the iPhone 5 and can get by with a fat 1,200 minutes a month of talk time, you can do better with an offer already available from Sprint Nextel's Virgin Mobile. Virgin offers the same 8GB iPhone 4 for $100 less, just $349.99, and the 4S, with 16 GB and Siri, for $449. It gives you unlimited data and texting, too, and a choice of voice minutes: 300 a month for $35, 1,200 for $45, or unlimited for $55.
If, like most people, you text and use data a lot more than you talk on your phone nowadays, you can go for 300 minutes a month on Virgin's iPhone 4 and pay just $1,189 over two years, $340 less than Walmart's cheapest deal. Add $100 to that and have the 4S. For the 4S with 1,200 minutes a month, you'll pay $1,529, equalling Walmart's lowest price for only a 4 and with just 8GB, not 16GB.
So unless you have to have the iPhone 5, not the 4 or 4S, and you really need unlimited minutes, not 1,200 a month or fewer, you might want to think twice before running off to Walmart.

Felt the same about Brave. Was beautiful on blu-ray but the story wasn't anything special.
Felt the same about Brave. Was beautiful on blu-ray but the story wasn't anything special.
Life of PI was amazing in 3D!
Spoiler!The end where the tiger just leaves without a word, i just couldn't digest that scene :/
I watched Skyfall over the weekend and I totally thought the Bond family groundskeeper was going to hook up with M and live happily ever after.But I honestly don't think that would stop him.Spoiler!But then she died.
And Silva was just jealous that his little brother Bond got all of mommy's attention.
And Bond's brief fight in the komodo pit definitely felt like an Indiana Jones fight, what with Bond's mannerisms there.
Silva's island base was totally DiCaprio and Cotillard's ruined dream city from Inception.
The ending felt like a "traditional" Bond movie from years ago,Spoiler!what with the new M and Moneypenny in their old fashioned office. It just felt very "old Bond".
So watched a few movies over this Holiday Week.
On Thanksgiving my friends and I watched DBZ and the Tree of Might. It was hilariously bad and then there was Gohan penis which I was not expecting. We also watched Fantastic Mr Fox which I had never seen before, that was a cooky but pretty neat movie. We then capped off the evening with Resident Evil Armageddon, which I am pretty sure that may have been one of the last "horror/action" movies that incorporates someone wearing a ridiculous looking rubber suit. Seriously the guy who had to run around in that Nemesis suit god bless him.
On Saturday I saw Cloud Atlas which I really really enjoyed, and not just because I'm a nerd and already read the book. I thought it was really well done and the actors who played different roles sometimes switching gender was pretty amazing at some point. Oh also if you ever wanted to see Hugo Weaving dressed up as an evil elderly british woman this is the movie for you.
I've never seen Queen of the Desert I feel like that is a movie that can only be enjoyed while on drugs.
It was good, I enjoyed it a lot. Pretty typical 'loser goes mad with power' story but done really well.
Skyfall finally came out here and I quite liked it. Probably in my top 5 Bond films. I'm really liking the fact that the Craig movies are at least attempting to, and in many ways succeeding in, give Bond a backstory and some semblance of depth. I especially liked how they did the same for M, who for 22 movies had basically no depth whatsoever. I also quite liked how the movie sort of scales down in terms of scope as things went on.
I also watch the first 3 episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood in US History class yesterday because my US History teacher is a big anime nerd. I quite liked it, but I quickly realized that A) I liked the way the original series began better, since it didn't just drop you into the show and waited until the 2nd episode to build the world and how it works, and B) that the English voice cast is superior to the Japanese one. I know, blasphemy. Overall though, I wouldn't watch more of it of my own volition, but I enjoyed what I saw of it.
Also, Roger Moore is the worst Bond.
I watched TDKR on Sunday again, first time since in theaters.
However Sunday was my first day off in two weeks, so it became "Whiskey Sunday" by default and I don't remember any part past "let's watch Batman" and the plane scene.
I still love Bane's voice though, this much I recall.
expendables 2, it was enjoyable but brainless, humor was so forced but i'm a child of the 80s so seeing stallone, norris, arnold, bruce killing people at the same time brought a smile to my face
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind - I love Kate Winslet and pretty much every movie I watch with her makes it onto my favorites list. Her and Jim carrey pull this movie off so well and although sometimes it's a little slow, the good parts overshadow that. I rate it a 9/10 because there are some parts I had to rematch to get.
Little Black Dress. A a cute girly korean film, I love Korean films and dramas and this one was much better than I expected. The thing about Korean films though, they get you laughing and smiling and loving everyhing, then out of the blue WHAM, you're crying your eyes out. This was no exception. This was acted out so beautifully and I will research it! 10/10 정말 대박! This isn't like your typical omg bffs end happily ever after, it ends on a real note. They're just ok, they're not perfect, no Prince Charming sweeping them off their feet and riding into the sunset. The ending is cute and focus' on the four girls it intially began with.
Watching Labyrinth for the first time. All of my whats.
For the first time? Oh man, you've been missing out.
I'm not sure if it's just that it is more of an American thing to have seen it or if I have subconsciously ignored it forever.
Also I only just found out that there are details for Thor 2 and I am excite.
I dunno. I'm reacting to you the same way people react to me when I tell them I've never seen The Dark Crystal.
Of course as of earlier this year I have seen The Dark Crystal. Or at least fifteen minutes of it, then I switched to something else on netflix and never looked back.
I've never seen that either.
Right now David Bowie is singing and it's kinda terrible.

Two suspects in the Saturday shooting death of a North Augusta man were in custody at the Richmond County Jail in Georgia on Sunday awaiting extradition to Aiken County.
Richmond County Sheriff's Office deputies arrested Demarcus LiQuan Booker and Raphael A. Wooden, both of Augusta, less than an hour following an armed robbery at a Beech Island business, according to Sgt. Jason Feemster of the Aiken County Sheriff's Office.
Zann Worrell Jr., 32, suffered multiple gunshot wounds during the incident, which took place at the Island Cuts Barber Shop on Sand Bar Ferry Road. Aiken County Coroner Tim Carlton reported that Worrell was pronounced dead at 3:37 p.m. at Georgia Regents Medical Center on Saturday.
Feemster said two men entered Island Cuts demanding money. Worrell, identified by Feemster as the business' owner, fought with the men and was shot multiple times.
The suspects fled the scene in a white Honda and a witness followed the vehicle into Georgia, according to Feemster. The witness reported the vehicle's location and its license plate number to the Aiken County Sheriff's Office via a cell phone. That information was relayed to the Richmond County Sheriff's Office and deputies located the vehicle and the suspects, Feemster said.
Aiken County Sheriff's Office investigators obtained warrants for both Booker and Wooden in reference to murder and armed robbery.

Army 1st Lt. Kyle Soler '05

Students, alumni learn life-saving skills through WEMS program
Tara Graham '98 will never forget the day she almost drowned.
She was working with the Peace Corps in Tanzania and needed a break from the summer heat. So, accompanied by 30-plus teenagers, she hiked to a nearby waterfall to swim.
The dip was refreshing, at first. But that changed when an 18 year old suddenly grabbed her in a bear hug and pulled her under water.
"He was panicking and was a lot stronger than I was," Graham says. "I knew that if I did not escape we could both drown."
Graham clawed at the boy's chest. When the pain caused him to release his grip, Graham escaped to the surface. Once she caught her breath, Graham and a few other students pulled the teen out of the water to safety.
Her quick thinking under pressure saved both Graham's life and that of the drowning boy — a skill she attributes to her training as a Willamette Emergency Medical Services (WEMS) responder.
"Thanks to WEMS, I have the ability to keep a calm head in situations, and I am able to organize people to action as a result," she says.
Hands-On Experience
Like Graham, Saneet Johal '13 says her WEMS training has prepared her to react when someone needs help.
A biology major, Johal came to Willamette knowing she wanted hands-on experience working with patients.
"I didn't want to just deliver flowers or clean the reception area at the hospital," Johal says. "I really wanted to help people. That's what drove me to be on WEMS at Willamette."
WEMS was founded in 1997 by students concerned with the safety and well being of those on campus. Today, 30 student volunteers keep the program running.
To join, students must take a first-responder course at Willamette, which equips them with the necessary certifications to respond to emergency calls. They maintain their standing and emergency-response skills by attending weekly drill sessions.
Army 1st Lt. Kyle Soler '05 — who has served several years in Iraq and Afghanistan since graduating — was involved in WEMS throughout his time at Willamette.
He says his WEMS medical training has helped him give life-saving care to more than 20 fellow soldiers, local nationals and contractors.
"WEMS is a doorway seldom offered at a college," says Soler, who is stationed in Afghanistan through next year. "From a professional standpoint, you will walk away with an experience you can put on your resume or your graduate school application."
Every Thursday through Sunday, at least three WEMS members are on call for 24-hour shifts. Their job is to respond at a moment's notice when Campus Safety is called about an emergency.
"You start to understand the difficulty and dynamics of being on call," Johal says. "Not only do you need to deal with the things that you don't want to deal with, like vomit, but you need to get the important information from that patient. Sometimes it can be really serious, and you need to understand what is going on with their bodies and how to get them the kind of help they need."
A Unique Leadership Opportunity
WEMS is led by a six-member student executive team, which meets weekly to plan drill sessions, organize events and carry out other behind-the-scenes work. Advisors Ross Stout and Margaret Trout — the directors of Campus Safety and Bishop Wellness Center, respectively — attend meetings and provide guidance.
Johal says she came to Willamette without many leadership skills, but that changed after serving on the WEMS executive board for four years.
"I was put in a position where I was expected to go to meetings to present material and speak to people," Johal says. "WEMS really added to my character by allowing me to have that authoritative role and that kind of responsibility."
Soler also served on the WEMS executive team while at Willamette, which he says helped prepare him for the Army.
"I was promoted twice as fast as my peers because of the skill sets I acquired through WEMS," Soler says. "I was able to deal with situations as they arose with a calm outward appearance and a relaxed demeanor."
Beyond Willamette
WEMS can be life changing, regardless of a student's major and career plans.
Graham has a master of public health degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and works as a senior program specialist for the National Council on Crime and Delinquency. She is working toward her life-long dream of becoming a nurse, with plans to begin a nursing program in 2014.
Johal, who credits WEMS with helping her discover her passion for helping people, plans to attend medical school.
"If you are not sure if you want to be in medicine, WEMS is a great way to figure that out," Johal says. "I definitely get an adrenaline rush when I get calls, and it helps me affirm that I really am interested in medicine."
As for Soler, he says WEMS gave him valuable clinical experience. But more importantly, it trained him how to help others.
"While the calls may be few and far between or the seriousness of the situation may vary greatly, you never know when your response will have an impact on someone's life, big or small," Soler says. "[WEMS] is a very concrete way to embrace the school motto: 'Not unto ourselves alone are we born.'"
