Call me naive, but I had NO idea how difficult it was being a very small voice in a very large media tunnel.
I have realised that no one really wants to talk to me – the reality is that magazine editors are deluged with tons of crappy 'wannabes' hawking their second rate products through PR. It's no wonder that they can't sort the wheat from the chaff easily.
For every 100 emails I've sent, maybe one lucky break hits the mark, and the effort starts to pay dividends. But when it happens, what a buzz!
I actually punched the air when Prima magazine said they loved the website and wanted to write an article about it. Picture the scene – me in my shabby home-office with a cup of cold tea, neck-ache from too much typing on a non-ergonomic desk (these are the 'elf and safety workplace trivialities I actually DO miss from my former corporate existence – who knew?!), when I get a call from Prima asking for a chat. OMG they love it! And today I purchased a copy of said magazine, Feb 2011 edition. I am on page 75 to be precise, looking extremely young. Buy it. One good turn deserves another.
So now I bite my nails and wait anxiously to see if ANYONE will register to the site as a result! If there is a God…..
The one thing I said I wouldn't really want to do when I began this business was 'sell'. Sadly, selling is currently 100% of the job. Bummer. I should have gone on The Apprentice.

Dana says a lot of things but no matter how much he complains about stuff money will over ride the rest so if the still sell out in Vegas and can save a few bucks there they will.
you would have to think that someone in the CSAC would want to step in if Kizer actually flakes on this bout. It would be a nice steal for them if they could illustrate they had their shit together: meet with Vitor and his team, explain how TUE works and what the expectations are--how often he'll be tested regularly and how many random tests he'd get, etc.
If they could show a strong, steady hand working with TRT, it would go a long way to repair their ramshackle reputation.
On a side note, if Kizer actually goes through with his posturing and doesn't license Vitor after giving sonnen not only a license, but TUE after he admitted abusing TRT, that would be pathetic.
All manner of men came to work for the News: everything from wild young Turks who wanted to rip the world in half and start all over again -- to tired, beer-bellied old hacks who wanted nothing more than to live out their days in peace before a bunch of lunatics ripped the world in half.

Yeah, Bye.
Looking forward to this fight. Rooting for Belfort but I feel Weidman's wrestling will prove problematic for The Phenom.

Chris Weidman happy with Vegas, not Vitor Belfort's TRT
"I'm happy about (fighting in Las Vegas)," Weidman said. "He's fought in Brazil now for the last two years, and obviously he looks like the Hulk now. He's on TRT and he's been caught cheating before for testosterone and I don't know what else. … For a guy who's 36 years old to have a lot higher testosterone than me at 29 years old, and I've never taken anything, is really not fair. So I'm happy that I'll be fighting in Vegas, and I hope they'll do due diligence in testing him to make sure he's not cheating."
The NSAC has licensed fighters previously who have TUEs for synthetic testosterone. As of now, with a TUE for it, as long as a fighter's levels fall within the allowable limits, TRT is legal. The UFC says it tests fighters with TUEs throughout their camps to make sure their limits are within the normal range during their camps, as well.
But that may not be enough for Weidman. If given a vote, he'd do away with TRT use altogether.
"I'm not a big TRT guy – I don't think TRT belongs in our sport," he said. "I don't like it. I don't have the highest testosterone in the world, and I wouldn't take it. I feel just fine where I'm at. Some people would probably tell me to take testosterone, but I wouldn't do it."
Another thing that would've been interesting if he had a vote would have been his fight against Belfort had the UFC told him it was going to take place in Brazil. Critics of Belfort headlining three consecutive cards in Brazil have said that the UFC is hiding him there to avoid stiffer testing in the U.S. The UFC has countered those claims, though, by saying it's just been smart business to put Belfort, a national sporting treasure in Brazil, at the top of cards in his home country.
But Weidman wouldn't have been keen on sucking it up and dealing with it if he would have been asked to defend his belt on Belfort's home turf.
"It would've been a discussion, for sure," he said. "I wouldn't have have just taken it on the chin and said, 'OK, let's do it.' I would've had a discussion."
There hasn't been much need to discuss whether or not Belfort is the right challenger for him now, though. UFC President Dana White was fairly adamant about it before Weidman's rematch with Silva at UFC 168, and Belfort was at the post-event news conference, sitting among the media, to somewhat formally accept the title fight.
Belfort's three consecutive knockout wins, all stemming from head kicks, have come against a murderer's row of opposition: Michael Bisping, then former Strikeforce champ Luke Rockhold, then, in November, former PRIDE champ Dan Henderson. Each has been a little more convincing than the one before it.
TRT or not, Weidman admits Belfort should be next.
"I think he's the right guy. It's whoever the UFC thinks is the contender. He's had three knockouts in a row, so I think he's the right guy," he said.
UFC CEO Lorenzo Fertitta said Thursday he is hopeful the Weidman-Belfort fight will take place in Las Vegas either for the promotion's Memorial Day weekend show in May, or for its regular Independence Day weekend show in July.
Weidman said he feels 100% after his win over Silva, despite reports of a knee injury in camp. He plans to get checked out by a doctor, but he'd prefer to get Belfort out of the way at his earliest convenience.
"If I had a preference – I want to talk to Dana and Lorenzo about it – but just thinking on my own right now, I'd say May," Weidman said. "I want to enjoy my summer – get a nice 'W' and hang out with the family in the summer and enjoy the new pool in the backyard."
What I was saying though in Jersey you have a venue right beside the largest city in North America in a state where they've been denied access to MMA which is a huge market.
Belfort has a lot to prove fighting outta Brazil imo. This can be a great fight, the deciding factor on how good/competitive this fight will be is how well Belfort deals with Weidman's wrestling.
Pulling for Belfort, but mind Weidman further solidifying himself as champion.
Chris Weidman Opens as 2-1 Favorite over Vitor Belfort
Fresh off his second victory of 2013 over mixed martial arts legend Anderson Silva, UFC middleweight champion Chris "The All-American" Weidman already has his eyes set on defending his title against another top Brazilian contender sometime this summer (May or July).
While Vitor Belfort will never be as dangerous as Silva was, he possesses an entirely different array of skills, physical capabilities and mental motivators.
However, that hasn't stopped the betting gods from already giving the favorite Weidman 2-1 odds. Weidman stands at -200, Belfort at +160.
It was announced earlier this week that the UFC plans to host a Weidman vs. Belfort middleweight title fight in Las Vegas. That's fairly significant news in favor of the champ. Over the past few years, Belfort has exclusively fought in Brazil because of the country's loose testosterone replacement therapy regulation, which is something Weidman has recently deemed "unfair.""I think Weidman wins the fight and should be favored anywhere on the planet – even in Brazil," said veteran MMA oddsmaker Joey Odessa, as reported by Steve Marrocco of MMA Junkie. "He just beat arguably the best 185-pound fighter to step into the octagon two times and will get to defend in the United States."
But even though Weidman's home-field advantage does in fact benefit him, it's still surprising to see a fighter with only 11 professional bouts receive 2-1 odds over a legend and red-hot knockout artist like Belfort.
In any case, "The Phenom" will have his chance to prolong his three-fight win streak and try to avenge a 2011 championship loss to Silva that ended via an infamous front heel kick.
As for Weidman, a decisive victory over the best 185-pounder not sidelined by a broken leg should surely land him among the pound-for-pound best in the world.

In March, Google introduced an online version of Google Talk that extends the limited features previously available in Gmail. Yahoo didn't want to give yet another competitive advantage to Google, so they integrated the IM into Yahoo Mail and now offer a standalone version of Yahoo Messenger for the web.
Like Google Talk gadget, it's built in Flash, each conversation opens in a new tab inside the same window, you can find a contact and see his status. Yahoo's web messenger saves all your conversations and makes the history searchable from the same interface. Google Talk saves your conversations from any client, but the history is only available in Gmail.
While Google Talk's gadget is compact and can live inside your personalized homepage, in a new window or in your browser's sidebar, the new Yahoo Messenger for the web adopts the Meebo style of occupying and entire page. If you don't trust third-party clients like Meebo and most of your friends use Yahoo Messenger or Windows Live Messenger, the new interface can be useful when the desktop client is not installed or is blocked.

Greg Sterling spotted image ads in Gmail and this seems to be a controversial Gmail experiment. A Google spokesperson said that Google "recently started experimenting with image ads on messages with heavy image content." Greg confirmed that the image ads aren't displayed next text-only messages and they sometimes appear next to HTML messages that include a lot of images, especially newsletters.
Gmail's image ads are contextually targeted, but it's unlikely that users will tolerate them well. After all, one of Gmail's selling points was that it only used relevant text ads. Here's Google's answer from 2005 to the question "What makes Gmail different?": "There are other differences in the way Gmail provides access to your email. For example, Gmail automatically groups an email and the replies to it as a conversation. That means you always see a message in its proper context. And there are no pop-ups or banner ads in Gmail, just relevant text ads and links to related pages". Google's explanation continues: "[Gmail ads] are small and unobtrusive. They don't fill half your screen and we don't make you read them just to get to your inbox. Ads are never inserted into the body text of either incoming or outgoing Gmail messages and you won't see any pop-ups or untargeted banner ads in Gmail."
It's interesting to see that a Gmail page about privacy explains that "showing relevant advertising offers more value to users than displaying random pop-ups or untargeted banner ads". The key words are "random" and "untargeted".
{ Thanks, Greg. }

So isn't this just Invicta 8? Do the women who lose and don't make the finale go back to Invicta. I think it is good for the UFC and Invicta to have a partnership but I'm not sure about leasing out top fighters for an amateurish entry show only to see if they make the cut.
Best of luck to these women, they're putting themselves on the line just as the men do.
TUF 20: New UFC strawweight fighters getting paid up to $40k prior to Octagon debut
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) announced plans on Wednesday (Dec. 11, 2013) to create a women's strawweight division with the acquisition of 11 fighters from Invicta FC. Now we have learned how much they are getting paid ... without even fighting.Financial information has emerged in the wake of promotion president Dana White's announcement and quite frankly, the women are coming out of the deal on top.
During Wednesday's late edition of Fox Sports Live, it was revealed that fighters will be paid at least $32,000 each prior to stepping foot inside the Octagon. Invicta's current champ Carla Esparza is the exception, as she will nab a cool $40k herself before ever throwing a punch.
It's safe to say all the fighters are getting raises, as some were said to be making as little as $1000 to show and $1000 to win. Not to mention 10 of the women will grab an $8000/$8000 split (twice) before ever stepping foot inside TUF 20 house.
32 Gs to stay healthy and prepare for the show.
*Wow, these girls will have earned more from the UFC before they even have an official fight than some fighters have earned in a year!

And if you want beef, then bring the ruckus
Women's sports simply do not draw in the numbers as well as male sports across the board and I don't see this as being any different, regardless of how creative the UFC is in selling it.
They bring in fighters who some of them lost their last fight.. like Felice and paying them 40k, yet you got Holly Holm just sitting over there, waiting. Get your mind right Dana!

The Center for Science and Innovation, a 60,000-square-foot project that will transform the way science is taught at the University of San Francisco, has cleared significant planning milestones and generated so much donor support that a Dec. 10 ground-breaking has been scheduled. Additionally, a private foundation recently announced a signature commitment of $10 million to help USF build the center.
The Center for Science and Innovation will not only feature a building that transforms the way science is taught at USF, but it will also offer a new student plaza and gathering places for the entire campus community.
"We've been greatly encouraged by the response of major donors, so much so that this long-time dream will become a reality," said USF President Stephen A. Privett, S.J. The ground-breaking will be followed by excavation in May 2011. Full occupancy of the new building is expected in 2014. USF expects all permitting and contractor selection to be completed by Dec. 31.
"The Center for Science and Innovation will build on USF's long history of ethically based research by adding a more relevant orientation to the sciences," said USF Trustee and Campaign Chairman Steven Read '69. "It will further differentiate our education. I am delighted by the project's new momentum."
With the new pledge from the foundation and other recent gifts to the project, fundraising for the new center has now surpassed $40 million in total gifts and pledges.
In addition to an impressive new structure between Harney Science Center and the newly renovated Kalmanovitz Hall, the project will include the renovation of the existing Harney Science Center and a new plaza that will transform the heart of the USF campus. The Harney renovation will include building upgrades and modernization of classrooms and laboratories. The building has not had any substantive upgrades since it was built in 1965.
"Great gift opportunities continue to be available to donors who share the vision for science and a transformed campus that has attracted more than 2,500 gifts and pledges," said David Macmillan, vice president for University Advancement.
To learn more about the project, please visit the CSI website at www.usfca.edu/csi.

Londonderry man charged in aggravated assaultBy Susan Smallheer
Staff Writer | April 19,2013BRATTLEBORO A 21-year-old Londonderry man pleaded innocent Thursday to charges of aggravated assault on a housemate after he came home Wednesday upset about something his sister had posted on Facebook, according to court records.
Timothy Slade also pleaded innocent to a related charge of simple assault by menacing.
Judge John Wesley released Slade on conditions, including that he not have any contact with Jacob Johnson, 21, the man he allegedly tried to choke, as well as not to harass family members who witnessed the attack.
According to police, Slade grabbed Johnson around the neck and went nose to nose with him, and pushed him into a couch and started attacking him.
Johnson told police that Slade kept on telling him he wanted to fight him, but he refused.
Police said they saw scratches and red marks on Johnsons neck.
According to court records, Slade and Johnson, and other people, including Slades sister and young son, all live with Slades father in South Londonderry.
Slade had been ordered held without bail by another judge Wednesday afternoon after he was arrested at his familys home. At least two family members said that Slade was in a rage when he came home Wednesday, upset about a comment posted on Facebook by his sister Kimberly.
But his anger at his sister later turned to Johnson, according to court records. Slade told police that he was upset with Johnson not doing any work and not contributing any money to the expenses of the household.
Windham County Deputy States Attorney Ashley Harriman said that Slade was ordered by the judge to stay 300 feet away from Johnson and his vehicle. Slade was given permission to return to the home once in order to retrieve some possessions and his vehicle from the home on Thompsonburg Road. Harriman said that Slade will live somewhere else.
Slades father tried to break up the fight, at which point Kimberly Slade called 911 to report a fight.
Terrance Slade told police that he was trying to hold his son down and pull him off Johnson. He told police he didnt know what the argument was about.
But I feel that he needs emotional counseling and help, the father wrote in his affidavit.

What's the Difference Between a Food Allergy and a Food Intolerance?
What is the difference between food allergy and food intolerance?
– Elaine
Food allergies and food intolerances can have similar symptoms, but are very different conditions. Intolerances, such as lactose intolerance and celiac disease, can cause someone to feel ill. Food allergies not only can make someone feel ill, but also can cause a life-threatening reaction.
Food intolerance means either:
- the body cannot properly digest the food that is eaten
- a particular food might irritate the digestive system
Symptoms of food intolerance can include nausea, gas, cramps, abdominal pain, diarrhea, irritability, nervousness, or headaches.
A food allergy occurs when the body's immune system, which normally fights infections, sees the food as an invader. This leads to a response from the immune system — an allergic reaction — in which chemicals like histamine are released in the body. The reaction can cause symptoms like breathing problems, throat tightness, hoarseness, coughing, vomiting, abdominal pain, hives, swelling, or a drop in blood pressure.
Even if previous reactions have been mild, someone with a food allergy is always at risk of the next reaction being life threatening. Eating a microscopic amount of the food, or sometimes even touching or inhaling it, can lead to a serious allergic reaction. For this reason, those with food allergies must avoid the problem food entirely and always carry emergency injectable epinephrine.
In contrast, many with food intolerances can ingest a small amount of the bothersome food without a problem.

A funeral is truly a beautiful gift – it provides the opportunity for friends and family to gather, pay tribute, and bid farewell to a loved one. It is a special time for a celebration of life and for personal reflection. The ceremony can be traditional, simple, or as unique as the person being remembered.

(a) If the voter desires to vote a straight ticket, or in other words, for each and every candidate for one party for whatever office nominated, the voter shall either:
(1) Mark the position designated for a straight ticket in the manner appropriate to the voting system; or
(2) Mark the voting position for each and every candidate of the chosen party in the manner appropriate to the voting system.
(b) If the voter desires to vote a mixed ticket, or in other words, for candidates of different parties, the voter shall either:
(1) Omit marking any straight ticket voting position and mark, in the manner appropriate to the voting system, the name of each candidate for whom he or she desires to vote on whatever ticket the name may be; or
(2) Mark the position designated for a straight ticket for the party for some of whose candidates he or she desires to vote and then mark the name of any candidate of any other party for whom he or she may desire to vote, in which case the cross mark in the circular space above the name of the party straight ticket mark will cast his or her vote for every candidate on the ticket of the party except for offices for which candidates are marked on other party tickets and the marks for the candidates will cast a vote for them; or
(3) Write with ink or other means or affix a sticker or label or place an ink-stamped impression of the name of an official write-in candidate for an office for whom he or she desires to vote in the space designated for write-in votes for the particular voting system or for paper ballot systems, write or place the name and office designation in any position on the face of the ballot which makes the intention of the voter clear as to both the office and the candidate chosen.
(c) If in marking either a straight or mixed ticket as above defined, a straight ticket voting position is marked, and also one or more marks are made for candidates on the same ticket for offices for which candidates on other party tickets are not individually marked, the marks before the name of candidate on the ticket so marked shall be treated as surplusage and ignored.
(d) When a voter casts a straight ticket vote and also writes in any name for an office, the straight ticket vote for that office shall be rejected, whether or not a vote can be counted for a write-in candidate.
(e) The secretary of state may proscribe devices for casting write-in votes which would cause mechanical difficulty with voting machines or electronic devices or which would obliterate or deface a paper ballot or any portion thereof, but the secretary of state shall preserve the right to vote by a write-in vote for those candidates who have filed and have been certified as official write-in candidates under the provisions of section four-a of this article.
(f) If the voter marks more names than there are persons to be elected to an office or if, for any reason, it is impossible to determine the voter's choice for an office to be filled, the ballot shall not be counted for the office. The intention of the voter shall be deemed to be clear if the write-in vote cast for an office contains both the first and last name of an official write-in candidate for that office; and if no two official write-in candidates for that office share a first or last name, either the first name or last name alone shall be deemed to express the clear intention of the voter.
(g) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this chapter, no ballot shall be rejected for any technical error which does not make it impossible to determine the voter's choice.

Straight talk and harsh realities dished out with love was the order of the day as the Salvation Army played host to an anti-violence rally on Saturday.
Families devastated by violence, businesspeople looking for change and community activists working to improve Aiken all spoke out at an event looking to change the course of young men and women at risk of entering a life of crime.
"If you don't want your children to become something or to love something, don't be it. And don't bring it home," said Christopher Garris, a local business owner. "How in the hell do you expect your boy to grow up to be a man when you are bringing thugs home? How do you expect your young daughter to become a lady when you are laid-up with a hoochie?"
With a focus on the local African-American community, speakers with experience of poverty, violence and loss looked to send a message that hard work, responsibility and community were key.
Garris captured the crowd's attention with an energetic speech, which drew on his own experiences as a drug dealer and recovering addict, who has turned himself into a successful individual.
"I got 19 years clean from crack cocaine," he said. "I sit here hearing my brothers and sisters make all these excuses about why the can't make it. Life is only going to give you what you are willing to invest in yourself."
Garris and Clement Scurry of the Free Riders Motorcycle Club spoke of overcoming notions of honor in "thug," "gangster" or "hustler" life, and the importance of honest work.
"You say you're a hustler, but you're living in a single-wide with (rims) on a Crown Vic," Garris said. "You say you're a hustler. No you're not, you're a fool!"
Garris mocked those who complain about the divide between communities, but then turn around and refuse to help police investigations.
As well as the speakers, family members of those slain by violent crime provided poignant memories of the impact of these acts.

As the second article in my Anti-Bulling series i would like to focus on the main points of bullying and the signs to look for if your child is being bullied or is a bully.
Bullying has been focused into three main points. These points are: Imbalance of Power, Intent to Cause Harm and Repetition.
Imbalance of Power: People who bully use their power to control or harm and people being bullied may have a hard time defending themselves and continue to be pushed around as they mature into adulthood. This imbalance of power can end up in abusive relationships, demeaning situations and being taken advantage of for the victims entire life.
Intent to Do Harm: Actions done by accident are not bullying. Bullies have the main goal of causing harm, humiliation and to gain control. This is where adults, kids and any other bystanders need to step in and correct the situation.
Repetition: Incidents of bullying happen to the same person over and over by the same person or group of people. It is important to break the cycle and show the bullying party that this is not going to be tolerated and show the victim that they too are important and you care.
There are many warning signs that someone is involved in bullying, either by bullying others or being bullied. However, these warning signs may indicate other issues or problems, as well. If you are a parent or educator, you may want to learn more about talking to someone about bullying.
Signs of a child who is being bullied are: They comes home with damaged or missing clothing or other belongings, Reports losing items such as books, electronics, clothing, or jewelry, Has unexplained injuries, Complains frequently of headaches, stomachaches, or feeling sick to avoid school, Has trouble sleeping or has frequent bad dreams, Has changes in eating habits, Hurts themselves, Are very hungry after school from not eating their lunch, Runs away from home, Loses interest in visiting or talking with friends or doing things they used to enjoy, Is afraid of going to school or other activities with peers, Loses interest in school work or begins to do poorly in school; Appears sad, moody, angry, anxious or depressed when they come home, Talks about suicide, Feels helpless, Often feels like they are not good enough, Blames themselves for their problems, Suddenly has fewer friends, Avoids certain places, and Acts differently than usual.
Signs that your child may be a bully are: They become violent with others, Gets into physical or verbal fights with others, Gets sent to the principal's office or detention a lot, Has extra money or new belongings that cannot be explained, Is quick to blame others, Will not accept responsibility for their actions, Has friends who bully others or feels the need to win or be best at everything.
Now that you know what to look for, it is important to know how to deal with the information you have collected. Check back next week for my next article, "How to deal with bullying." In the meantime if you need more information or would like to do some research on your own, visit: www.stopbullyingnow.com, stopbullying.gov, kidpower.org or talk to you guidance councilor, friend or family members!

"I wanted an invitation for my husband's 60th birthday, that I knew he would be comfortable with. While this invitation is more on the formal side it reflects his interest in wine and his taste for more classic styles. I was so happy to find it was an option! The paper and envelope are very nice and I'm glad I didn't pay for an upgrade. The rush service went as planned. The return address printing on the envelopes appears to be limited to two lines. If you live in a multiple dwelling this could be a problem."
"The paper was excellent quality & thick stock. The text print was great & the customer service superb. The colors & design of the card were great so I didn't change that. I appreciated the free review & normal etiquite changes. Although this was seen originally for a birthday celebration, it was able to be changed/personalized for a wedding rehearsal dinner since it followed the theme. I was unable to find anything like this with other print businesses."
"I found the perfect invitation for my mother's 80th birthday celebration. By changing the font to red, her favorite color, this "Holiday" card transformed into a festive November "Splash of Red" party invite. The scroll pattern attracts the eye and the card stock is firm with a textured quality when touched. The Customer Service Associate was attentive to my needs and the design staff ensured the content was formatted to my specifications. Due to the square size of the cards, additional postage was required, but it was no problem.The package arrived quickly and I was able to mail off the invites promptly. I received compliments on the look & style of the card. A big thumbs up to Wedding Paper Divas!"
"We used this for a birthday party invite for a baby. Love how it is completely customizable. Very quick review process. Incredibly fast shipping. I have bought multiple items from this site and have always been very impressed."

So … I have a confession to make.
My oven has been broken since June and I still haven't fixed it. Why you may ask? Well, partly because I'm lazy. I also have been enjoying dining out (aka eating at Lupe Tortilla like 4 times a week … love their beef fajitas)! Since our oven has been broke, we having been 'flooding the stovetop' as I like to call it. I've also been grilling up a storm. The other night we made this grilled cabbage slaw and accompanied it with grilled barbecue sausage. It was great! [Read more...]

A Ridge Spring man was detained on multiple charges, including drug charges, after being pulled over on Sunday for not wearing a seat belt, according to the Aiken Department of Public Safety.
Timothy Craig Addy, 45, of Gold Mine Road, was charged with simple possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of meth or cocaine base first offense, possession of a controlled substance first offense, driving under suspension first offense, improper vehicle license and giving false information to police. He was placed in the Aiken County detention center, where he remained on Tuesday afternoon.
Addy was pulled over on Whiskey Road just after noon on Sunday when officers saw he wasn't wearing a seat belt, according to the report. Addy immediately began giving officers information "about the purchase and the service repair of the vehicle."
Addy also gave them an ID card belonging to a Richard Addy, but could not provide other information such as the vehicle registration or insurance, according to the report. Addy got out of his vehicle and approached officers, again talking about the history of the vehicle.
Officers gained consent to search the vehicle and found a tin can containing a bag of a leafy green substance believed to be marijuana in the center console, a smoked blunt, a digital scale, wrapping paper, a razor blade and a powder substances believed to be methamphetamines, which was confirmed by Addy, according to the report.
Inside the trunk, officers found a duffel bag Addy said was his, according to the report. Inside the bag, officers found two bags of pills later identified as Alprazolam, a schedule IV substance, and hydrocodone, a schedule II substance, according to the report. Also in the trunk were nasal decongestants, steel wool pads, aluminum foil, carpet cleaner, pain medication and other items that "gave reason to believe" that methamphetamines were to be processed.
A female passenger in the vehicle was also detained after officers found she had warrants for Lexington County.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:
By Fox Racer30 from USA on 2008-10-14 02:52:15Things I liked:This is by far, the best sniper rifle i've owned. I bought it to replace my B A R 10, & have been 110% satisfied with it. the stock is plastic, but it's none of the cheap crossman plastic you see... it's a good quality material. It's a bit on the heavy side (to run & gun with, that is), & the bipod wobbles a bit (not enough to affect accuracy though!!) the bolt is smooth, some poeple complain of it being tough to pull, well i'm quite satisfied with it!
Things I would have changed:The bipod wobble. a simple upgrade form stock will change that. Hop-Up placement, it needs pre adjustment, as it's a hassle to access while playing -I bought a package deal, with a 4x40 scope- The scope took me a good hour & a half to zero (that's why accuracy got a 4/5)
What others should know:This is one of the best -if not the #1- Sniper rifle's out there, for it's price!!

By Jim from USA on 2012-08-10 13:14:07Things I liked:Size & feel.
Things I would have changed:Bought a refirb unit from Pyramyd. The thing spread a pattern of about 14" at 30 feet! Totally innaccurate. Not repeatable. Used $200 optical zoom scope and could not dial into get anything on target. Laser bore scope indicated something seriously wrong with this barrel. Sighting was off by 12" at 30 ft. This was a big mistake to buy refirb. I don't think anybody checked this one out B4 reselling it. Bipod mounting block is loose and flimsly. No good for laser mounting at all.
What others should know:Pyramyd quickly and politely refunded my purchase price & shipping. All reviews bragged about accuracy. I hope a NEW one works better! Appears to be a good gun.......if bought NEW.

UPDATE: Amazon customer's account mysteriously restored

By Dan Eldridge
Yesterday, David Rothman brought you the story of the now Internet-famous Norwegian Amazon customer known only as Linn, who recently experienced the nightmare of having her entire Amazon account closed and blocked—by Amazon—and without any reasonable explanation whatsoever. Linn's story has since popped up all over the Internet—it was covered by outlets including Wired, Boing Boing, The Guardian, Gizmodo, The Huffington Post, and probably hundreds of other blogs and websites most of us have never even heard of. Of course, when an Amazon customer service story as shocking and offensive as Linn's goes viral, you can bet your Kindle Paperwhite that the...

Rated 3.6 out of 5Â by 5 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5Â by moonhorse Pretty This dress is very pretty. The ice color as much different than as pictured, it's more of a pinkish tan color but I like it better anyways. This dress is however very short! I will have to wear with tights or something else. 1.22.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by s7234 Very pretty, but... I saw this in the store in white and immediately loved it! However, when I looked closer at the detail it did look a little cheap. I may have bought it were less expensive, but it did not seem worth the price at all 1.6.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by HRGLDY Sparkles! I love this dress! Not at all what I expected with the colour - it is more of a warm white that a cool white that the colour "Ice" would suggest. It's also much more sparkley than I though it would be. Regardless, it fits extremely well on my petite frame. I ordered an XS and it's perfect. Even on my 5'3" frame, it is short. Something the other reviewers have not talked about is that this dress is a bit sheer. I would add the seamless slip underneath. It's also a pullover style. since the dress doesn't have a lot of give, you have to be very careful to not damage it. Overall, adorable dress. Looks great with large cozy sweaters layered over top for a daytime look. 11.11.2012
Rated 2 out of 5Â by marta I wanted to love it- but the dress looks much more tan than white, and the embroidery looked a little cheap. It was also REALLY short on me, and I'm only 5'5''. I had to send this back. 11.6.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by fpfan1212 Best Everrr I ordered this dress in "ice" and i looooove it! It is more of an off white in person, but i have fair skin so it works on me. It is very flattering and not too short, it is a little longer than mid thigh, so it can be worn without tights. I am wearing it to Homecoming this weekend and i know i can dress it down and wear many more times! Excellent purchase and yet another one-of-a-kind buy from free people!! :) 10.25.2012

Clint Ball, aviculturist at the South Carolina Aquarium, said, "If you want, just climb right on in there with the penguin." The penguin, labeled as #101, sat behind a 3-foot wall waiting to be fed but not before a cameraman from Channel 4 and I took some pictures.
I jumped at the chance, climbed in and there I was on the floor right next to a Magellanic penguin. Everyone else stayed on the other side of the wall since there was very little room to move inside. Not afraid, he moved closer as I got my camera ready.

So my husband and I decided to just stop all forms of contraceptives and let things happen. We wouldn't break out the ovulation kit until its been a few months. But of course, my anal retentive self already knows my ovulation days. I am 8 dpo right now and I don't think we hit a bullzeye this month. I'm not sad though. I think this has helped ease my husband a lot too because I think a part of him started to worry that we would never be parents, and that he didnt want to risk my life, etc. When I told him that we will just see what happens I've noticed a change in his demeanor.
So it looks like I'm on this board now. With my little guardian angel watching on his mom, it makes me feel that maybe this time around things will be better.

Orlando Science Center's exhibit halls feature a vast array of exciting interactive experiences! Learning has never been so fun with these hands on educational exhibits. From down to earth explorations in natural science to the high-tech world of simulation technology, everywhere you look, you'll find educational and entertaining opportunities to explore, experiment, and discover.
Traveling Exhibits
The Orlando Science Center is home to some of the most exciting traveling exhibits in the country. When these exhibits are in town they are only here for a limited time, so don't miss the opportunity to see them!
Exhibit Halls
As great as our traveling exhibits are, there are some exhibits that are the staple of the Orlando Science Center. NatureWorks will have you up close and personal with some of nature's most fascinating reptiles. At DinoDigs, you'll step back into the prehistoric age. Discover the dynamic forces and systems that shape our Earth, as well as other planets in Our Planet, Our Universe. Explore such concepts as electricity and magnetism, lasers, soundwaves, and nature's forces in Science Park. No visit to the Science Center is complete without a trip to KidsTown, an interactive world dedicated to our smaller explorers.
Science Live! Programs
What's the difference between a great visit to a Science Center and a memorable visit? Live programs. Our exhibits are designed to inspire curiosity and exploration, our Science Live! programs are designed to bring the exhibits to life. Whether it's a show in the Digital Adventure Theater or a one-to-one interaction with a volunteer at the Crosby Observatory, our live programs create the kind of impact that can last a lifetime.
Science Stations
Looking for little more "hard science" in your next Science Center visit? Look no further than the Science Stations located throughout the facility. Science Stations are a cross between exhibits and live programs in that they're exhibits that typically include a live program to truly bring the experience to life. Science Stations provide an in-depth look at their respective subject matter in an entertaining way. Be sure to check your program schedule to see which Science Stations are conducting demonstrations on the day of your next visit.
Crosby Observatory

Tatooine may be the fictional home world of Anakin and Luke Skywalker, but astronomers believe this made-up world may exist more or less. Last week, the first ever multi-planet solar system was discovered circling not one, but two stars!
These stars and its planets are more than 5,000 light-years away. The new, complete solar system with twin suns resides in the constellation Cygnus. Scientists have announced these planets as Kepler-47b and Kepler-47c. The planet in the inner most part of this solar system, Kelpler-47b, orbits the twin stars in less than 50 days. Kepler-47c, which is located on the outer most part of the solar system, takes more than 300 days to travel around the stars. It has the largest known orbit than any exoplanet.

02.14.2012 – The WKA Board of Trustees has just approved several clarifications and changes to 4-cycle engine specifications.
Briggs & Stratton LO206
The RLV Model 5507 header can now be used in the LO206 classes. This header is identical in performance to the current RLV Model 5506, but it relocates the pipe to clear the rear bumper in some kart chassis. Both headers are now legal.
The Briggs & Stratton Green Air Filter #555729 is now the only approved air filter for the LO206 engine family. This change will eliminate one more variable in the engine specifications and help control costs in the LO206 classes.
Beginning with the 2013 WKA Competition Year (December 20, 2012), the only approved cylinder head for the LO206 engine will be the RT-1. This change will further ensure consistency in the LO206 product as there is a single mold for this head, and this head is used for all Animal and LO206 engines. This change should not present a burden to the current LO206 customers as only the very early engines were supplied with other model heads, and these old heads should have cycled out of the system by now.
Briggs Animal
Recently WKA announced that the Burris aftermarket piston was approved as a replacement part for the Animal engine. However, the piston pin supplied with this piston is not approved. It was found to be 4 grams lighter than the stock Animal pin.
Also, WKA is clarifying the method for measuring the inside diameter of all Briggs piston pins. The pins are to be measured at the outside end of the pin hole. The I.D. should not be measured further inside the pin.
Finally, aftermarket cam gears are now allowed in the Animal Modified engines that run in the Gold Cup and National Road Racing Series. Stock Briggs & Stratton cam gears continue to be required in all other Animal engines.
Several changes have been made to the Clone engine specifications and inspection procedures. The new Clone flywheel part number BSFW-1 is now approved but not required in the Box Stock and Pure Stock classes. Aftermarket billet flywheels continue to be required in the Builder Prepared classes.
A new specification has been added to the Clone valve train. The installed height of the valve is a minimum of 0.815". Valve spring shims are now allowed.
The 0.019" specification for the low speed jet has been eliminated. However, the jet may not be drilled through to the outside of the carburetor. This will be a post-race tech inspection item.
Finally, the stock Clone rod may now be honed.
Briggs & Stratton Raptor
The stock Briggs & Stratton Upper Retainer part number 23184 is in short supply. As a result, any upper retainer up to a maximum thickness of 0.058" is approved.

BAD: keys did not match
From Brandonhutchinson.com
In this example, I received a cfengine authentication error due to name resolution problems on a Solaris 10 client.
# cfagent -qIK ... cfengine:mrpmmds012: BAD: keys did not match
cfservd on the policyserver was correctly configured. My cfengine client was listed in AllowConnectionsFrom and TrustKeysFrom. I also allow the policyserver's public cfengine key to be copied to /var/cfengine/ppkeys on the client.
# For boostrapping cfengine clients /var/cfengine/ppkeys/localhost.pub server=$(policyhost) dest=/var/cfengine/ppkeys/root-$(policyhost).pub mode=600 owner=root group=root trustkey=true
So what was the problem? To find out, I ran cfagent in debug mode.
# cfagent -qIK -d1 ... IPV4 address sockaddr_ntop(10.205.0.66) Identifying this agent as 10.205.0.66 i.e. mrpmmds012.example.com, with signature 0 IsIPV6Address(mrpmmap010.prd.mrds.unix.example.com) SENT:::CAUTH 10.205.0.66 mrpmmap010.prd.mrds.unix.example.com root 0
It turns out that this system is mrpmmds012.example.com in DNS and mrpmmap010.prd.mrds.unix.example.com in the LDAP hosts database.
$ getent ipnodes mrpmmds012.example.com 10.205.0.66 mrpmmds012.example.com loghost $ getent ipnodes 10.205.0.66 10.205.0.66 mrpmmap010.prd.mrds.unix.example.com mrpmmap010.example.com
From /etc/nsswitch.conf:
# Note that IPv4 addresses are searched for in all of the ipnodes databases # before searching the hosts databases. ipnodes: ldap [NOTFOUND=return] files
This forward/reverse mismatch causes problems with cfengine authentication. As a fix, remove or correct the entry in the LDAP hosts database. In this case, I chose to fix the LDAP hosts entry using ldapmodrdn.
$ ldapmodrdn -r -h LDAP_server -D "cn=Directory Manager" Enter bind password: cn=mrpmmap010+ipHostNumber=10.205.0.66,ou=Hosts,dc=prd,dc=mrds,dc=unix,dc=example,dc=com cn=mrpmmds012+ipHostNumber=10.205.0.66 renaming entry cn=mrpmmap010+ipHostNumber=10.205.0.66,ou=Hosts,dc=prd,dc=mrds,dc=unix,dc=example,dc=com
