Despite being a year removed from his national championship, Heisman-winning season with the Auburn Tigers, Cam Newton's impact in the state of Alabama is still being felt:
It's possible no one in the game of football has had a better, more successful two-year run than Cam Newton.
In 2010, the 6-foot-5, 250-pound quarterback led Auburn to its first national title in 53 years, winning the Heisman Trophy, the Maxwell Award — given to the nation's top college player — and the Davey O'Brien Award — as the nation's top quarterback. He was also named an Associated Press First-Team All-American and the SEC Offensive Player of the Year.
After being selected by the Carolina Panthers with the first overall pick in the 2011 NFL draft, Newton went on to set not only rookie records at quarterback, but all-time marks. He was named the AP's Offensive Rookie of the Year and was selected to replace Super Bowl-bound quarterback Eli Manning on the NFC's Pro Bowl roster in a season in which he became the first player in NFL history to pass for 4,000 yards and run for at least 500.
His 4,051 yards passing set an NFL rookie record, while his 14 rushing touchdowns is the most ever by an NFL quarterback in a single season.
Newton can now add one more accolade to his ever-growing resume as he was selected the Alabama Sports Writers Association's Pro Athlete of the Year.

Tasawwuf al-Sakhawi
Imam al-Sakhawi (d. 902) on Tasawwuf
In his biography of the famous men of his time entitled al-Daw' al-lami` al-Sakhawi reveals that his father Zayn al-Din `Abd al-Rahman ibn Muhammad (d. 874) was a Cairo-born Sufi of great piety, and a member of the Baybarsiyya Sufi community where Ibn Hajar, Sakhawi's teacher, taught for forty years.1
In the section of his al-Jawahir al-mukallala fi al-akhbar al-musalsala devoted to the transmission of hadith through chains formed exclusively of Sufi narrators, Sakhawi states that he himself had received the Sufi path from Zayn al-Din Ridwan al-Muqri' in Cairo.2
In the same work Sakhawi also mentions several of his teachers and students of hadith who were Sufis. Here are the names of some of them, together with the words used by him to describe them in his biographical work al-Daw' al-lami`:*
Abu Bakr ibn Muhammad al-Hishi al-Halabi al-Shafi`i (b. 848) the head of the Bistamiyya Sufis in Aleppo, the mother trunk of the Naqshbandi Sufi order affiliated with Abu Yazid al-Bistami. He spent two years in Mecca with Sakhawi, who wrote him an ijaza or permission to teach. In this ijaza Sakhawi calls him:
"Our master, the masterful Imam of merits and guidance, the Educator of Murids (students in the Sufi path), the Mainstay of Wayfarers in the Sufi path, the Noble Abu Bakr al-Hishi al-Halabi, may Allah preserve him and have mercy on his gracious predecessors (i.e. the chain of his shaykhs in the Sufi path), and may Allah grant us and all Muslims their benefits."3
Badr al-Din Hussayn ibn Siddiq al-Yamani al-Ahdal (d. 903): al-Sakhawi gave him a comprehensive ijaza granting him permission to teach all of his books.4
Abu al-Fath Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr al-Madani al-Maraghi (d. 859): Sakhawi took hadith from him. He was head of two Sufi khaniqas in Cairo, the Zamamiyya and the Jamaliyya. He led a life of seclusion for the most part, and wrote a commentary on Nawawi's manual of Law Minhaj al-talibin, and an epitome of Ibn Hajar's Fath al-bari because of his defense of Ibn `Arabi, he was murdered in front of the Ka`ba by a fanatic.5
Taqi al-Din Abu Bakr ibn Muhammad al-Qalqashandi (d. 867), also called `Abd Allah. He received the Sufi khirqa or cloak of authority in Cairo. He is said to have read the whole of Sahih al-Bukhari in three days while in Mecca. He lived in al-Quds, where al-Sakhawi met him and took hadith from him.6
Thiqat al-Din Abu al-`Abbas Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-`Uqbi (d. 861). He taught hadith and tajwid in Mecca, where Sakhawi studied under him.7
Kamal al-Din Muhammad ibn `Abd al-Wahid al-Sikandari al-Siwasi (d. 861). He was a master of all sciences and taught at the Madrasa al-Ashrafiyya in Cairo, after which he headed the Shaykhuni Sufi khaniqa. He authored many books.8
Abu `Abd Allah Muhammad ibn `Ali al-Husayni al-Qahiri al-Shafi`i al-Sufi (d. 876). Munawi's deputy judge in Cairo, a student of `Izz al-Din ibn Jama`a, Jalal al-Din al-Bulqini and many others, and a student and friend of Sakhawi's teacher Ibn Hajar whose work Fath al-bari he copied twice. A teacher of fiqh and hadith, he wrote an epitome of Ibn al-Athir's Kitab al-ansab. He was an old acquaintance of Sakhawi's father, and consequently treated Sakhawi himself "with indescribable respect." He was one of the ten students to whom Ibn Hajar gave his authority in teaching hadith after him.9
Abu Khalid Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr al-Jibrini (d. 860). He was a writer, archer, horseman, and Sufi shaykh at the zawiya (alcove-mosque) of Jibrin, where al-Sakhawi met him and took hadith from him. Sakhawi says of him: "He was handsome, modest, generous, courageous, and endowed with spiritual strength and virility after the shaykhs of true majesty."10

5 Effortlessly Natural Blushes
5 Effortlessly Natural Blushes
My go-to for a great natural cheek color is Korres #15 Natural, which gives my cheeks a little warmth and natural color without being too pink or plum. I also really love Tarte Exposed, which gives a little more color but still retains a soft, natural result.
- Tarina Tarantino Neopolitan Lane — soft medium brown
- Burberry Russet — medium-dark brown with orange undertones
- Korres #15 Natural — medium-dark brown
- Tarte Exposed — muted rosy plum
- Burberry Cameo — muted plum
What's your go-to blush for a natural cheek color?

Friday diversions: Is that the best we can do?
First there was the intro, which read a bit like a Saturday Night Live skit and was formatted like this:
-David Shields = highly self-conscious lab rat; David Shields = Canada
-Will the internet ever save anyone's life?
-Bret Easton Ellis's twitter feed
Following that, the piece begins promisingly enough, with Lacey touching on a self-imposed two week break from the internet during which she only answered a few emails on her phone and read Shields' How Literature Saved My Life. I was hoping for some worthy follow-up on that from both Lacey and Shields but that was not the case. While there are some important ideas running through the interview, too much of it is peppered with strange and bizarrely dramatic proclamations like Shields' stating "I use the internet as a tool to figure out where the war is being waged that day on our individual and collective minds."
(An aside here. Again, this kind of thinking seems so prevalent, and so constantly ignorant of the role that privilege and class play. How many in this country and others do not have steady or reliable access to the internet and technology in general? It is depressing to see the digital divide continuing to grow to the point where those who do not have this access are no longer even derided, they are simply non-existent. What fundamentally undermines so much of what Shields' is saying, rightly or wrongly, is summed up when he says "...when I am online I'm thinking as hard as I can about what this water is in which we're all swimming." No. Really, no. We're not "all swimming" in that same water. A lot of people are "swimming" in the water of just trying to earn enough money at the job to put food on the table and in the kids' mouths.)
Near the end of the piece, things really unraveled for me. Shields' says "Steven Soderbergh is looking for 'a new grammar'; he's weary of narrative prison of films. He's seeking a new language by which to express himself. Hey, join the fucking club. How do we get there? You just know it's out there, don't you? Someone is going to make of a million Facebook posts or Twitter feeds an astonishing collage. See Christian Marclay's The Clock. If that isn't a model, I don't know what is." He goes on to offer readers other "models" which include Danger Mouse's The Grey Album (I hope he is referring to Grey Tuesday and the collective online lashing out against corporate control of intellectual property and not just the album itself which, at best, is merely clever and entertaining) and, astonishingly, Bret Easton Ellis' Twitter feed. Yes. His Twitter feed, according to Shields, is actually saving either his or someone else's life. It's not entirely clear which. In Ellis' Twitter feed, Shields says "He is actively trying to figure out how to live, how to think, how to feel, post-Empire. He's on it. He gets it, completely. He gets how to push back, how to be part of the culture and how to push back against ferociously it at the same time, to ignore it and transform it. He is a hugely catalyzing force for me." Obviously, I needed to investigate this for myself since, if these claims were true, I would certainly need to be following this feed on a daily basis. I followed the link and found, on the first page...
--four references to the band The Eagles and / or their album Hotel California
--a link to the new video from the band The Passion Pit
--a Tweet proclaiming "The band I am listening to the most right now is Tame Impala and their great record "Lonerism"
--six references to the HBO show Girls including "the almost unbearable pathos and honesty of the last two episodes makes everything else on TV seem like something we need to forget."
That is a model? Where is the "trying to figure out how to live, how to think, how to feel, post-Empire"? To me, it all looked an awful lot like masturbatory pop culture namedropping. Maybe it is unfair and grossly inaccurate to make any kind of assessment of Ellis' Twitter feed simply from the first page of Tweets, but you know what they say about first impressions.
So again, I am depressed. Deeply depressed. I would have thought that in order to turn off the internet, to rediscover literature and the life of the mind, to "figure out how to live, how to think, how to feel" I would want to do something like read the works of Heidegger and Kant, Franz Kafka and John Steinbeck, Chinua Achebe and bell hooks, and Neil Postman and Judith Butler to start. I didn't realize all I needed to do was follow someone's Twitter feed and watch Girls obsessively.
Look, I don't have a problem with television or enjoying it or Tweeting about it. None at all. That's actually the kind of thing that I would expect from a Twitter feed. Honestly, if you're going to Twitter looking for anything more than an entertaining link or a clever phrase, you're searching in the wrong place. And my own aesthetic life is absolutely full of similarly enjoyable but shallow pleasures. As dearly as I love the magazine, I would never pretend to elevate Heavy Metal and the comics of Moebius and Druillet above Herman Melville or Gloria Anzaldua or Mary Wollstonecraft. What depresses me so much is the way that things like Ellis' Twitter feed are propelled to level of Important Thinking. That this (Girls and the Eagles and namedropping other bands) is "how to live" at the expense of, well, everything else. Is it possible that we could ever look out at anything more complex and broader than what is immediately in front of our faces, or motivating our genitals, or stimulating that part of our mind that is addicted to clever snappy dialogue like it's cocaine? I found it almost paradoxical that in an interview which at some points alludes to "the slowness of books" in a positive light eventually devolves into a worship of the quick fix, the instantaneous world of "new media" and the never-ending worship of pop culture personalities.
Is this really the best we can do?
EDIT: One more addendum, mostly on Girls. Here's the thing. Ultimately, Girls seems to be a show with a fairly narrow focus. A narrative on the coming-of-age experiences of a group of privileged white girls in Brooklyn. Not for me, but no big deal there. But here's my issue. One of the most effective critiques leveled against fantasy literature, comic books, science fiction, videogames, and so on is that these things are childish. They appeal to us in ways that we should have apparently outgrown as we become mature adults. I don't agree with that much, but it at least does occupy some solid logical ground and can be a useful point of discussion. So if we can batter fantasy and science fiction with that critique, why is it acceptable for people in their mid-40s to be so obsessed with show like Girls which focus entirely on the experiences of 20-somethings? Should we as adults in our 30s, 40s, 50s and so on not have put those things aside and grown up? The hypocrisy is astounding.

Love your last, the edit. People DO compartmentalise, they DO hold conflicting feelings simultaneously. As illogical and unreasonable as that may be, it may be the thing that separates us from machines.ReplyDelete
I don't watch much TV but for some reason what you just wrote really resonated with me.
Damn right! Your addendum sums up many feelings I've been trying to express.ReplyDelete
Matt, it is a huge relief to read your aside, the one that talks about the fact that "A lot of people are 'swimming' in the water of just trying to earn enough money at the job to put food on the table and in the kids' mouths.)"ReplyDelete
I don't have my own kids, but, as an educator, I work with other peoples'. I take that responsibility seriously, which means that my world becomes very small when school is in session.
I long to delve into my own drawing and writing, and I frequently click on links to this blog or that, hoping to read something which will liberate me from the bind in which I find myself: between commuting and working, I'm out of the house 12 hours a day; when I get home, I'm beat, but healthy living requires cooking and cleaning; and, having the presence of mind to show up for my students in productive and nourishing ways demands that I get something that approximates a sufficient quantity of sleep. I rest on the weekend, see my partner, fit in a friend, and do the chores that will prepare me for the week ahead.
The message that I frequently encounter when I read blogs is that a person just needs to get up earlier or discipline themselves. I'm already doing all of that just so that I can do my job well and have a modicum of order in my life. Breaks are often spent just catching up on all that has had to go undone.
And I'm one of the lucky ones. There are many people who work longer and harder and earn less than I do.
I know that this response doesn't address the central theme of your post, but I was just so darn grateful to hear someone talk about how all-consuming it can be to simply earn a living--and to do so as if they care.
I think that it's so easy to tap into others' day-to-day experience of living that we forget that what feels like a hive mind is still limited.ReplyDelete
(I say this as an avid lover of Twitter....I don't think anyone is curing disease or saving our souls there, though! It's just a tool for conversations. It's like a loud room full of some terrific folks, and it's easy to make that room smaller and invite more interesting voices in). While it might feel like everyone is on Twitter, definitely not everyone is on Twitter.
I don't think your assessment of GIRLS is off in any way, necessarily--have you seen it? It is so painfully funny and poignant....it's Woody Allen-ish, actually. It's like Annie Hall. There is something very smart and self-effacing about Lena Dunham's humor--that's what I always hope is seen in the show (that she is not holding her characters up as models of good behavior, but as highly-flawed young women with neurotic selves in flux).
I had not expected such thoughtful responses. I will try to address each one.ReplyDelete
BUCK and RYAN, thank you. It is reassuring to know I am not the only one who has wrestled with these feelings and ideas.
LAURIE, I found your comment very touching. Thank you for sharing that. I work in a public library, in a large urban area in Ohio. We serve an incredibly diverse group of patrons, from rural families to wealthy suburbanites to inner city poor. Some have homes full of smart phones and iPads, some desperately need our libraries just to be able to check their Hotmail accounts. Public libraries are in a volatile time. As some collections move toward becoming all-digital, we have to constantly question whether we are doing the greatest good. There are a lot of opposing voices and no clear way forward, but it troubles me that some of those voices seem to only follow the beat of technology forgetting that there are still so many that don't have that. I guess in a strangely symmetrical way, this comment of mine may not have addressed your central ideas, but I think we are very much on the same page here, in similar fields (both publicly supported, both dedicated to public service) and both equally troubled by what we see.
And HANNAH...don't get me wrong. On a strictly personal level, I am still a bit baffled by and put off by Twitter, but not in such a way that I want to critique it out of existence. Twitter is like party conversation. We don't go to a kegger to get involved in conversations about the role of the camera frame and how that impacts the flow of time in Tarkovsky's films, we go to hang out and have a good time with friends. I agree with you that Twitter is for a specific kind of communication. I don't have any problems with that. But I am mystified when some, like Shields, point to Twitter feeds as if they were essential for something. That's where I begin to disconnect.ReplyDelete
As for Girls, no, I have not seen it at all and again I realize that it is simply not for me. I'm really not even the intended audience, but that is okay. I am happy Girls exists, I am happy that people like it. But again, what mystifies me is the elevation of the show (admittedly, by some of those writing ABOUT Girls and not necessarily those writing Girls) into something approaching Western canon.
I feel like there is a real lack of balance in our consumption of pop culture. It's good to laugh, good to watch funny shows that poke fun at our own failings and show us the idiocy of all those late night hook-ups we fumbled through in our youth. But it's also good to read poetry. Real, challenging poetry. It's good to spend a few weeks with a book that really causes one to think about things beyond who might be going out that weekend. It's good to look up sometimes and wonder what's out there in space, or Heaven, or whatever. I don't see a lot of that in our books and films and shows anymore. I see a lot of Jersey Shore and Teen Moms and Girls and not much to balance the scales. It's balance I miss.

USMNT advances, Twitter reacts
USMNT advances, Twitter reacts
No surprise, but the Twitterverse was on fire last between the hours of 7 and 9pm ET. And it wasn't because Obama and Romney were about to talk foreign policy.
Nope, the topic at hand was a domestic affair. Presenting (some of) the best tweets from the USMNT's Hex-clinching win over Guatemala in KC, starting with a guy who just can't seem to get there this year:
Can't believe that logistics and the Olympics have conspired to keep me away from Livestrong so far this season. Looks ready for lift off.

LSP did indeed look incredible once again, and once the US settled in, we actually had some great TV. The Worldwide Leader got in on the fun...
Clint Dempsey, everyone! He gives the #USMNT a 2-1 lead.

Dempsey's first strike of the night put plenty of American fans at ease, so much so that it prompted Shawn Francis to break out an old classic with his boy EJ...

When the final whistle blew, it was reaction time. Heath Pearce speculated on what the Hex might hold:
Quality win for the Stars and Stripes tonight. Final qualifying round will be epicccccccc #soccerteas

Fulfilling their duties as gracious hosts, the (Sporting) Kansas City contingent weighed in postgame:

One of the biggest things I've learned is that it's a really good idea to clean your makeup brushes every few weeks. Makeup brushes can get clogged with excess powder or oils from your skin and can even cause breakouts if not washed often enough.
At first I wasn't sure how to clean my makeup brushes, but after a little trial and error I found a good drugstore cleanser for them. I tried more expensive cleaners and some alcohol-based sprays, but face wash eventually won out!
Step 1: What you'll need:
- Cetaphil face cleanser
- make up brushes
- a towel
Step 2: Washing
To rinse, place under a slow running tap or swish in a bowl of water.
Continue to wash and rinse until the water runs clear - if you've never washed your brushes before, this could take a couple tries!
The most important thing here is to be gentle when washing - if you rub the bristles too hard, you can bend them, tangle them, and rip them out.
Step 3: Drying
Do this again inside a towel to get out a little excess water. Make sure not to rub them or damage the bristles - you don't need to be rough!
Let them dry in a cool, sunny location - I like the window sill in my bathroom. It'll normally take around 24 hours for them to be entirely dry. Make sure not to use them until the middles of the brushes are entirely dry!
I think that boiling water can damage the brushes :(
Good one!
- don't hold the brushes upright when they're under the running water, or leave them soak. The water will get into the area where the bristles are so tight that they won't dry fast enough & bacteria will grow. You end up with a moldy brush wiping across your face. Over time, it will also loosen any 'glue' or product that holds the bristles together.
- If they're natural bristles (real hair), treat them the way you would your own hair. If you use a harsh product, it can damage the bristles. Shampoo is usually okay unless you use something for dandruff!

Click Here to Watch the Whole Video in HD at Broke Straight Boys
These boys are very hot and very straight but most of all they are broke. Rather then lose their apartment, girlfriend, etc. they do sexual things with other guys for some quick cash.
I had to go and get some videos and paperwork out of my storage unit. When I got there, I realized that I had forgotten my keys at home. I had the building manager, Sebastion, meet me at my unit to let me in. He got to my unit and he was one hot looking guy. Sebastion was young, very muscular, smooth, tan, with a great smile. He had me getting a boner, and my door wasn't even open yet. He unlocked the unit, and then I had him open the door for me. He bent down in front of me, putting his ass up in the air. It was very nice, and hard. I asked him if he wanted to do an interview for us and he said he could make some extra cash. When I told Sebastion that I would pay him what he makes in one week of work for just jacking off, he jumped on that. We went inside the unit and closed the door.

2 1/2 tablespoons
barbecue sauce
2 tablespoons
1 1/2 teaspoons
dried dill
1 1/2 teaspoons
mustard powder
1 1/2 teaspoons
minced garlic
1 tablespoon
butter or margarine
1/2 cup
shredded Cheddar cheese
This recipe was incredible! I just finished scraping out the pan to see if I could get any more into me. I used Bullseye BBQ sauce. I can't wait till I have company staying overnight so I can serve this for breakfast.
The BBQ sauce would have been enough to make these BBQ eggs. This is just too many seasonings for just plain old scrambled eggs. I'd rather have them plain, Not only do they taste better that way, they also don't look appetizing.
14 Ratings
Not good. An odd and not complimentary range of flavors. I'm with the other reviewers who prefer regular scrambled egg. Thanks anyway.
I didn't find that the different flavors melded together for me. It wasn't really all that appetizing to look at, either. Although, the taste was off for me, it may be flavorful to someone else.
Man, this was very good at all. Very conflicting tastes and something I did not myself enjoy at all. I prefer the standard scrambled eggs far more.
Not bad, when you get past the unappetizing color. I reduced the dill, mustard, and garlic to just 1 teaspoon each, and ended up adding another egg.
Okay, I have to agree that the color is a bit unappetizing. However we used this recipe for the scrambled eggs part of some breakfast burritos and it was by far the best batch we have ever had. The egg mix is suspect would also be good to use for a chicken omlete.
The bbq. sauce did not go well in this.

How much does water expand when it's frozen?
Asked by: Remi
Short Answer: by about 9% to 10%
Long Answer:
Normally, things expand when heated and contract when cooled. Water is an exception to this rule. Even though water does expand when heated and contract when cooled at most temperatures, water expands when cooled and contracts when heated between 4 degrees Celsius and 0 degrees Celsius.
A very good web site about the properties and oddities of water can be found on the Okanagan University, Dept. of Geology website at: http://www.geog.ouc.bc.ca/physgeog/contents/8a.html

When Medicine Got it Wrong
See a preview of this Truly CA episode.
Narrated by Rita Moreno, When Medicine Got it Wrong is the groundbreaking story of a small group of loving California families in the 1970s who challenged the commonly-held belief that schizophrenogenic parents caused schizophrenia. Angry at being blamed for an illness they knew was not their fault, mothers and fathers in San Mateo, California started Parents of Adult Schizophrenics (PAS) and began fighting for better understanding and treatment.
The story starts in 1974, and centers on two families -- the Oliphants and Hoffmans -- whose sons developed schizophrenia in their teens. Doctors told the boys that their parents were the cause of their problems. Medical records labeled each child as the "identified patient" in a dysfunctional family structure wherein the parents were more psychologically ill than the family member exhibiting delusional and psychotic symptoms. The cure: separation from the parents. The boys were institutionalized at Napa State Hospital, and the parents were warned that visits would be detrimental to their sons' chances of recovery.
When Medicine Got it Wrong shows how these families transcended extreme cultural shame to go public with their stories -- first by forming PAS, and then openly challenging doctors to recognize the medical nature of their children's ailment. The Oliphants and Hoffmans prompted researchers to question their assumptions about schizophrenia's etiology. Their passion inspired parents across the country to organize and lobby for research and more appropriate, compassionate care.
Their passion paid off: by the end of the 1970s neuroscience was investigating causes outside of family dysfunction and interpersonal relationships. Rapid discoveries in the next decades revolutionized medicine's understanding of these brain diseases. By the mid-1980s, textbooks dropped the term "schizophrenogenic," and in the 1990s pharmaceutical companies introduced the first new generation of medication in decades. Finally, these families began to see hope for their children.
The parents featured in When Medicine Got it Wrong waged their battles in an era when mental hospitals were shutting down and the most severely mentally ill were turned over to community care. Yet in the community, virtually no treatment centers would take in severely ill patients because, ironically, these patients' were too sick to participate in therapy. Many became homeless and their untreated symptoms often resulted in bizarre behavior, senseless crimes and ultimately incarceration.
When Medicine Got it Wrong addresses misconceptions about severe mental illness head-on and provides historical context for our contemporary mental health care crisis. Through the perspective of families, audiences share in the continued struggle for better understanding and care for some of California's most vulnerable citizens.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. In Greek MythologyThanatos was the son of Nyx and Erebus and the twin brother of Hypnos (sleep). As the embodiment of death, Thanatos was seen as a hateful figure, detested by men and gods alike. He dwelled in the Greek underworld, notably Tartarus, and was depicted in contemporaneous art as a winged youth. His Roman equivalent was Mors.The Wiles of SisyphusThe diseased depiction of Thanatos in Devil Summoner by Kazuma Kaneko.When Sisyphus, the wicked king of Corinth, betrayed Zeus, the god ordered Thanatos to bind Sisyphus by chains in Tartarus. However, the sly Sisyphus managed to bind Thanatos in the chains instead and all death came to a halt. This bothered Ares, god of war, whose lust for battle could not be satiated with armies of immortal warriors. Ares would then personally travel to Tartarus to free Thanatos and seal Sisyphus to his fate. But again, Sisyphus would try and cheat death by claiming to Persephone that his earthly body was not given a proper burial by his wife. Persephone pitied him and allowed him the right to return to the world above but before long he was dragged back to Tartarus by Hermes. Thanatos is sometimes seen as a branching off of certain aspects of Hermes.In Persona 3One of the more powerful persona in Persona 3. Thanatos is the highest-leveled persona of the Death Arcana.Thanatos first appears in the game when Minato summons Orpheus for the first time. At the same time, he awakened Thanatos, who also resided unknowingly within his psyche. His appearance caused the "death" of Orpheus, cutting off his head as he brutally emerged from within Orpheus.Thanatos, as he is first summoned in the game.After Thanatos vanquished all the shadows, he disappeared, and Orpheus regained his original form. It is revealed later on in the game that Ryoji is the equivalent of Death. Aigis's mission was to defeat Death, but failed to do so. Instead, she sealed Death inside Minato, who happened to be in the area of the incident. Having been sealed inside Minato for ten years, Death gained human traits like physical appearance and emotions and feelings. But at the same time, Minato was able to "copy" Thanatos from Death and made it available to summon him as a persona in battle.Ryoji reveals his true form. Recognize who it is?Ryoji then reveals to the main character his true form, which happens to be identical to Thanatos. Here, the player has to decide either to kill him or let him live. Killing him triggers the bad ending, while letting him live extends the game to January 31st and gives the player a chance to defeat Nyx and trigger the good ending.Thanatos can be obtained later in the game when the Death Social Link reaches its maximum level. By fusing certain personae, he can be created. Thanatos can also be fused with Orpheus to create Messiah, who is considered the main character's ultimate persona.

Corpus Christi ISD trustees approve official election results; incumbent considers recount
CORPUS CHRISTI - CCISD trustee Tony Diaz said he is considering requesting a recount of the school district's at-large candidate race results after he fell behind fellow candidate Janie Bell by 15 votes after the county tallied provisional and overseas ballots.
Diaz had led over Bell by one vote after Election Day results. But the county's updated report to the Corpus Christi Independent School District shows Bell took the lead.
Diaz, who has until 5 p.m. Monday to request a recount, asked CCISD officials Thursday about the recount process.
His question came moments before he and five other CCISD trustees voted to approve the district's Nov. 6 election results during an official canvassing by the school board. Trustee John Longoria was absent.
After the meeting, Diaz said he is considering a recount because he wants to be certain every effort is made to ensure all eligible ballots were counted properly.
A day before the canvass, Diaz said he likely would accept the unofficial, updated results and consider running for election again in the future.
After Thursday's meeting, Bell said the 15-vote difference is notable.
A recount would mean all 10 at-large candidate results would be reviewed, not just those of Diaz and Bell, said Roland Hernandez, CCISD's chief administrative officer who oversees the district's elections process.
A recount only would include votes that were reviewed by a Nueces County ballot board and determined as having met voter registration requirements for the district election, said Roland Hernandez, the district's chief administrative officer who oversees the district's elections process.
Efforts to reach Nueces County Clerk Diana T. Barrera were unsuccessful Thursday.
In addition, someone who requests a recount would pay costs associated with the process, which has been estimated by school district officials at about $10,000.
A requester also would specify if they sought a count of all ballots or only paper ballots, which are military and overseas, Hernandez said.
The district would contract out any recount services with Nueces County officials.
A recount would require district election results to be canvassed again, Hernandez said.
He said a recount process takes about seven days, and he doesn't see a recount affecting the district's swearing in of newly elected board members Nov. 26.
Bell was honored Thursday by CCISD officials and trustees with a certificate of election.
Newly elected trustees Hector "Coach" Salinas and John Marez, who were the top vote-getters in the Nov. 6 at-large election, and District 2 incumbent Lucy Rubio, who ran unopposed, also were honored with certificates. Marez didn't attend the meeting.

Thanks William! I took it down originally because something squirrelly happened to the link on YT. Had to correct it. It was up for such a short time I really didnt know if anyone had a chance to check it out. That Bosp. Ride on my right is so thin its incredible. Like the Agops, those are a joy to play.

Thanks for watching! Again, those particular Bosphorus cymbals are relatively new and are pretty thin for their line which makes them perfect for playing this style of music.
The book is a great one and Im just now making my way through it. Just glancing at the solos, they appear to the eye as not too difficult since theres not a gazillion notes. Though, once you try to play them, there are spots in each of them that make them incredibly challenging at least to me.

I think I need to check out that book. I actually have his other one with a Sid Catlett etude, Max, Art, Elvin, Tony, and a few others. I really need to dig that out...
Thanks Brady! Yes, I actually went through the book you are referring to with him. I continue to work on the Tony solo at various periods. I dont have the left foot speed demanded in that one. Very hard for me to do. This new one of his is a gem as well. To me it's more difficult than the first book.

Thank you for watching and the comments. That part is all true Roy Haynes. He had a unique and amazing way of using the hi-hats.

Garlicky Eggplant and Tomato Spread (Mirza Ghasemi) from 'The New Persian Kitchen'
Eggplants and tomatoes are far from culinary strangers. Whether baked gently in a ratatouille or simmered in a rich pasta sauce a la Norma, these friendly nightshades blend seamlessly in many cuisines. This super garlicky eggplant and tomato dip in Louisa Shafia's cookbook The New Persian Kitchen is no exception. Adding a new layer of complexity, however, is the inclusion of a couple of eggs, which thicken and bulk up what would otherwise be a glorified tomato sauce. The eggs transform the vegetables into a spread equally at home on a crudite platter, in a pita sandwich, or dolloped atop a warm bowl of rice. More

Jim "Baldy and Stupid" Delaney needs to disappear for being stupid. If he doesn't voluntarily, someone needs to MAKE him do so...
I think you're on to something there, 14...there's something creepy about the phallic "mine's bigger than your's" attitude these guys (and I doubt there are many women in big rocketry), and that picture with the redneck in the overalls leaning against his "big ol' bad pickup that I own and welded this ol' carrier to" in the background...
I've always been into rocketry, but I've never really seen much come out of it educationally, except that it did make me interested in flight and science. However, I'm not really sure what these guys are trying to accomplish.
TY, NASA, for sparing us from what MIGHT have been a disaster...
Thing is, JMike and Mitchell are better off away from each other---they get each other into trouble and instigate stuff all the time. Don't know who deserves to be gone more, but I'm since CAG knows what goes on "behind the scenes", we'll just have to see if JMike comes back focused and ready to finish his collegiate career on an upswing instead of an embarrassment and a complete failure. Ball's in your court, JMike...
"You allright, Levi?"
"OK, buddy."
Whilst his partner, Jimmy D, lies on the floor below, pretending not to be in pain and not embarrassed, lol.
Agree with the anti hunting --- sorry, anti abuse and murder --- comments. There is NOTHING sporting about killing things. NOTHING. Anyone who thinks it is is a moron and deserves to be shot at with the same scopes and ammunition they themselves think makes them "big men and women" just because "Hey, look, I can kill stuff...see here's a picture"..
Sickening, stupid, idiots.
no...the worst one was before the BCSNCG in New Orleans 2012...ugly...
This is an article? Is the writer really a professional?
Well, the guy who BUILT Apple, Steve Jobs, and who made Apple what it is, turned over control to Robertsdale native and Auburn grad, Tim Cook just before his death.
I make a living using Apple. I knew Steve Jobs...he was a hero. Tim Cook was one of Steve Jobs closest confidants (until his death of course), and Apple will remain one of the biggest and best companies in the world.
Terry, just cut your meals down 10% and you'll have that money in 24-48 hours, it looks like O.O -.-
My boy trent has something special for you.
And instead of dissing him for having two beautiful children, why not ask if YOU have any yourself? Do you? Does everyone other than trent have the RIGHT to have children?
You should be proud and complimenting him that he is a REAL father, standing by his kids, taking care of them, instead of running off and getting other girls pregnant over and over like too many monsters who "claim" fatherhood tend to do...
Hope you feel better about yourself, cfbguru...you are an idiot.

Hmm, Lowder, Knight, and Pickens should be the ones under intense investigation---are they running the programs or putting financial pressure on the Board of Trustee's decisions??? hmm....
That ain't the way it works, Jon...
Jeez, I had no idea how many ignorant writers there were about football until this last week and especially last 24 hours...
exactly, Kislath...
WHY do people keep going for the same ol' TIRED BS...sickening. The burger market is more oversaturated than any other restaurant in the country. I doubt any "research" was done by Harbar and sons that amounts to much...
good job, Mike. "Patience is a Virtue". If you're recruiting well, your players are improving and getting taken in the NFL with some regularity, and playing fundamentally sound football, don't run off your coach.
Meth is the epidemic, folks. It's WAAY too cheap, and it does things PERMANENTLY to minds and bodies, unlike pretty much every other illicit drug. Not saying that's what the issue was here, but he lived in an area of the Birmingham suburbs that is absolutely epidemic with Meth. There is no worse drug on this entire planet.
Agree with you, Pomm...
TR is the "real deal"...he's finally come out of his shell this year, gotten a bit of swag and "won't be denied" attitude, and has really made his name.
You go, Trent! RTR!
I wonder how many other lawyers called them within that first 24 hours. Must've been quite a few to pick from.

History of lacrosse
Lacrosse is one of the oldest sports in North America. Its origins were traced back as early as the 1100s. Lacrosse was played throughout modern Canada, but was most popular around the Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic seaboard, and the southern parts of America. Lacrosse originated with the Native Americans of the United States and Canada. They were first seen mainly among the Huron and Iroquois Tribes. Initially this game was a part of religious ritual which was played to resolve conflicts, heal the sick, develop strong, virile men and prepare them for war. Lacrosse now in the United States is played at the collegiate level in both the club and sanctioned team sport. Lacrosse these days has begun to flourish at an international level with the sport establishing itself in Europe and East Asia. Lacrosse was an Olympic sport in the years 1904 and 1908 and Canada managed to win gold on both occasions.
The game is relatively simple to play and understand. Lacrosse is a team sport that is usually played using a small solid rubber ball and a long-handled racquet called a lacrosse stick. The head of the lacrosse stick is strung with loose netting that is designed to hold the lacrosse ball. The objective of the game is to use the lacrosse stick to catch, carry, and pass the ball in to score by shooting the ball into the opponent's goal. Defensively, the objective is to keep the opposing team from shooting the ball into the lacrosse goal and to dispossess them of the ball through the use of stick checking and physical contact or zonal positioning. The sport has three major types. They are men's field lacrosse, women's lacrosse and box lacrosse.
In men's field lacrosse there are ten players on each team. They is a goalkeeper, three defenders in the defensive players, three midfielders who can free to roam the whole field and support the forward men and defensive players as well and three attackers attempting to score goals in the offensive end. This is the most common version of men's lacrosse played.
In box lacrosse the game is played between teams of 6 players each. This is an indoor version of this game. It is played on ice hockey rinks where in the ice has been removed or covered by artificial turf. The enclosed playing area is called a box hence the name box lacrosse. This version of the game was introduced in the 1930s and became popular in Canada.
In women lacrosse there are 12 players on each team. Women lacrosse is slightly different to men's lacrosse. The duration of the game is 60 minutes, two halves of 30 minutes each. Each team is allowed one 90-second team time-out per half. Time-outs may be taken after a goal has been scored. Apart from this women's lacrosse rules are specifically designed to allow less physical contact between players. As a result they have just a mouth guard when it comes to protective gear.
So be a part of one of America's oldest games and enjoy it to its fullest.

In 2001, the International Management Group (IMG) is the dominant company in the field of sports management. Its founder and CEO, Mark McCormack, is credited with having created the industry of sports management at the beginning of the 1960s. For the next 40 years, the expansion of IMG athlete representation in other areas – including those representing models and classical music artists, production and broadcasting of television shows, running training academies, corporate consulting, financial planning – was as dramatic and successful.

The second round of matches in Groups A and C throws up some intriguing fixtures in the FIFA Futsal World Championship Chinese Taipei 2004. In Group A, while world champions Spain are able to rest up some of their usual starting line-up against Chinese Taipei, the same cannot be said of Egypt and Ukraine. Defeat for either country will probably put an end to their dreams of reaching the next stage. In Group C, Italy will need to be on their mettle to dispose of Japan, as will the United States against Paraguay. FIFA.com takes a look at the upcoming matches.
Chinese Taipei v Spain: David v Goliath
Host Chinese Taipei's second group match looks like a case of mission impossible. The tournament's youngest team face no less than the reigning world champions in the form of Spain. In their opening 12-0 defeat to Egypt, the limits of the home side's young players were exposed and there is now a realistic fear of an even more dramatic score-line against the side from the Iberian Peninsula. Asked about his side's next opponents, Spain coach Javier Lozano's was at pains to find the right words: "I saw the whole match between Chinese Taipei and Egypt. What can I say? The players from Chinese Taipei can learn a lot from this tournament. I may well use the opportunity to rest up some of my players. I think that our opening victory was definitely our biggest challenge in the group stage." Damien Knabben, coach of Chinese Taipei, is under no illusions: "We knew even before the tournament kicked off that we're not at the same level as all the other teams. We're going to learn a lot from this tournament, but believe me; even in matches like the huge defeat against Egypt, you learn a lot. Definitely it will be another tough game for us as Spain are even better than Egypt. It is hard for our young, inexperienced players to compete against these world powers, as showed in our opening defeat. We will try to organise our defence in the next game but against world champions Spain, you know everything will be hard."
Egypt v Ukraine: Qualification on the line
After an unproblematic 12-0 victory against hosts Chinese Taipei, a much tougher task awaits Egypt in their second group game against the Ukraine. The Ukrainians proved themselves far from a pushover in their narrow 2-0 defeat to world champions Spain, so this match is likely to be the decisive encounter in Group A. In the last tournament in Guatemala in 2000, Egypt just missed out on a place in the semi-finals, after beating Thailand, Uruguay and Russia. Coach Mwafak Badry knows: "It would be nice if every game went like the one against Chinese Taipei. But we realise that the match against the Ukraine will be a totally different type of game. We are determined to qualify for the next stage, so we absolutely must win this game. We'll wait and see how it goes." The Ukrainians will certainly try to be wide awake from the kick-off in their second group fixture, because the tournament's dark horses simply cannot afford another defeat. Ukraine coach Gennadiy Lisenchuk is certain that his team will rise up to the challenge. "We've learnt our lessons from our defeat to Spain, and we're definitely going to do better this time. Our objective is still to secure a place in the top three. So it's clear that victories against Egypt and Chinese Taipei are crucial."
Italy v Japan: The Azzurri face a stiff challenge
After a far-from-easy 6-3 victory over the USA, Italy coach Alessandro Nuccorini expects Japan to prove even tougher opponents than the Americans. "Japan have a very strong team." Nuccorini believes that his team is under huge pressure in every match: "When you're top of the world, everyone wants to beat you; every match is like the final. Every time we run onto the pitch, the onus is on us." Above all, he expects his side to score less goals than in previous championships: "Every team in the tournament is very strong defensively; there are certain to be less goals." Adriano Foglia also expects a tough time: "Against the USA, we showed the strength of character we possess. The game against Japan won't be easy, when you think of how difficult Paraguay found it to beat them." Indeed, the Asian side were somewhat unlucky in losing their opening fixture 5-4 to Paraguay, but declare themselves full of confidence despite that reversal. Japanese coach Sergio Sapo commented: "The match against Italy won't be easy, but it won't be impossible to win. We do respect the Italians though, since they have better players than Paraguay or Japan. We played very well in the opening match but unfortunately we lost it because we made mistakes in the final moments. These mistakes proved fatal for us and these will not happen again in the next game. Tomorrow we will have a meeting where I will explain carefully to the players what these mistakes were and how to avoid them again. Certainly Italy are one of the favourites to claim the title and a formidable opponents for us, but Japan have plenty of qualities to challenge them. We will play with the same determination as we showed in the previous match and we will not make those mistakes. We will have chances to win should we give everything we have."
USA v Paraguay: Americans indulge in some positive thinking
After a 6-3 defeat to Italy, the United States are under substantial pressure against a Paraguay team accustomed to victory. American coach Keith Tozer does not want to linger on that defeat: "Of course we wanted to win the first match, but it wasn't an all-or-nothing game. We have two more chances. We're confident that things will go better on Tuesday." USA captain Sean Bowers agrees: "There are definitely things we need to tidy up, that much was clear during the game against Italy, but we feel that we can compete with any team in the world and we're going to take that attitude into the game against Paraguay." Paraguay coach Adolfo Ruiz paid tribute to the abilities of their next opponents: "We will think about the USA game after watching the tape of their match. They are a very physically strong team and we intend to play at a very high tempo. We need to make sure we take care of the small details. The USA like to play with one man up front and pass the ball into the channels down the sides. We have to be aware of that, close this area down and counter attack with speed." Die-hard Futsal fans may remember the match between the two teams in the inaugural FIFA Futsal World Champions Holland 1989. On that occasion, the Americans won 2-0.

The Man Show is an American comedy television show on Comedy Central that aired from 1999 to 2004. It was created in 1999 by its two original co-hosts, Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla, and their executive producer Daniel Kellison.
The Man Show simultaneously celebrated and lampooned the stereotypical loutish male perspective in a sexually charged, humorous light. The show consisted of a variety of pre-recorded comedy sketches and live in-studio events, usually requiring audience participation.
The Man Show is particularly well known for its buxom female models, the "Juggy Dance Squad", who would dance in themed, revealing costumes at the opening of every show, and in the aisles of the audience just before The Man Show went to commercial break and end the shows with the "Girls on Trampolines" segment. The first year of The Man Show featured beer-guzzling entertainer Bill 'The Fox' Foster as the show's emcee. Foster specialized in chugging two beers in record time (sometimes while suspended upside down) and singing lewd drinking songs. He would close every episode by leading the audience in the German drinking toast Zicke, Zacke, Zicke, Zacke, Hoi, Hoi, Hoi!, a tradition that continued after his death from prostate cancer in 2000.[2][3]
Notable segments[edit]
- A famous skit, often posted online, featured Carolla and Kimmel setting up a booth at a farmer's market and successfully asking people to sign a petition to "end women's suffrage", demanding the repeal of the 19th Amendment (which guarantees women's voting rights). This sketch humorously revealed widespread fundamental political ignorance in the general population and how terminology could be used to manipulate public opinion, much as dihydrogen monoxide is used to illustrate general scientific ignorance. The majority of people who came to the booth, both men and women, were willing to sign the petition.
- One of their most famous hidden-camera pranks had Carolla and Kimmel, dressed as hunters, tie an animatronic deer to the roof of a car, parked at a truck stop, using the deer to prank unsuspecting passersby. Carolla and Kimmel hid in a van parked nearby, making the deer move and talk, asking people to untie it, and even asking a police officer to shoot it.
- The Man Show tribute to The Benny Hill Show
- There were several famous hidden-camera segments featuring "The Man Show Boy", Aaron Hamill, only 11 years old during the show's first season. One skit had him standing outside a liquor store asking customers to buy him beer, while in another he walked around on a beach hitting on women. He became well known for his hilarious one-liners, which always caught people he approached off guard. (Example: one episode featured him walking around with a puppy. When a man stopped to pet the dog, he told him, "I just use him to get girls. Unfortunately, I've been attracting gay guys all day though.")
- The hosts visited Snoop Dogg's house where they messed around with him in his recording studio, as well as got stoned with him off-screen in his "Green Room".
- One recurring skit featured Kimmel's impression of former Utah Jazz star Karl Malone. Kimmel, made up in blackface, wearing a bald cap and body suit, would give advice on subjects such as history, health, and China. The impression pokes fun at Malone's well-known inarticulacy, and Kimmel's impression usually hinted at mental retardation.
- The 1999 through 2001 seasons shows occasionally featured segments entitled "The Monkey Bar", where chimpanzees duplicated real-life human exploits in a similar style to that of the 1970s American Broadcasting Company program Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp. One such performance entailed a conversation in a bar which referred to a penguin joke. In another, (not in the Monkey Bar setting) Jimmy Kimmel sent his (then) wife, Gina, to Poland in order to allow him to be with his new "simian wife", referred to by his real-life children as "monkey mommy".
- "The Wheel of Destiny", a very popular recurring segment based on the chance to receive either pain or pleasure resulting from the spin of a wheel. Good prizes included a ride in the 1960s Batmobile with Adam West, a wheelbarrow full of porn, a celebrity who would pretend to be their friend (Gary Busey) and eating a candy bra off a porn star. Bad prizes included "Adam pees on your wallet", "Shave your eyebrows", "Forklift Wedgie", and "Call your mommy and admit that you masturbate".
Departure of Kimmel and Carolla[edit]
In 2003, Kimmel and Carolla left The Man Show and the job of hosting was passed down to comedians Joe Rogan and Doug Stanhope. It ran for one more season before being cancelled. Kimmel and Carolla went on to helm their own shows Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Too Late with Adam Carolla and The Adam Carolla Show. Carolla has appeared on Kimmel's program several times during its run including April 8, 2008 after he was eliminated from ABC's Dancing with the Stars.[4]

Syndication and DVDs[edit]
In the late 2000s, reruns of The Man Show aired on G4TV weeknights at 10:00 p.m. ET and 10:30 p.m. ET and on Saturdays at 12:00 a.m. ET. It was originally thought that the Rogan-Stanhope-era episodes would not be shown because the commercials referred to the syndicated episodes as "the way Jimmy and Adam made it". However, Canadian channel mentv included the Rogan/Stanhope episodes in its schedule. G4TV also aired the Rogan-Stanhope episodes, but only a very few times.
The first four seasons of The Man Show are also available on DVD.
International versions[edit]
A Norwegian version was aired on TV 2 Zebra.[5] in 2006 and 2007, and ran its third season in 2008.
Also in Denmark, there was a version called Penislægens værksted (The Penis-doctors workshop) on TV2-Zulu.
A Turkish version was adapted by Play Productions and aired on Star TV in 2000.
