Caza Oil & Gas, Inc. Announces Commencement of Drilling Operations on Second Caza Ridge Well and Provides Operational Update HOUSTON, TEXAS -- (Marketwired) -- 06/24/13 -- Caza Oil & Gas, Inc. ("Caza" or the "Company") (TSX:CAZ)(AIM:CAZA) is pleased to announce that drilling has commenced on the Company's second well on its Copperline Bone Spring property ("Copperline") in Lea County, New Mexico. The Caza Ridge 14 State #4H horizontal well commenced drilling on June 15, 2013. The well will be drilled to a total vertical depth of approximately 11,750 feet with a total measured depth of approximately 15,895 feet. This well is a direct offset to the successful Caza Ridge 14 State #3H well. The primary target is the 3rd Bone Spring Sand interval with potential secondary targets in the Brushy Canyon, Avalon Shale, and 1st and 2nd Bone Spring Sands. Caza has a 58.75% working interest (approximate 44.80% net revenue interest) in the Caza Ridge 14 State #4H well. In addition to announcing the commencement of operations on the Caza Ridge 14 State #4H well, the Company is providing the following operational update on the Lennox, Madera and Roja properties: -- The fracture stimulation on the Lennox State Unit 32 #2H horizontal Bone Spring well was successful. Caza stimulated the 3rd Bone Spring Sand interval in the lateral section of the well in multiple stages, and also stimulated the 2nd and 1st Bone Spring Sand intervals in the vertical section of the well to gauge commerciality and future development potential. The 1st Bone Spring tested non-commercial and is being isolated, but the 2nd and 3rd Bone Spring intervals produced oil and natural gas at commercial rates on test. As planned, the well is being placed on artificial lift and will be produced to recover frac fluids and establish stabilized flow rates. Once stabilized rates are established, the market will be updated accordingly. Caza has a 40.00% working interest before payout (31.08% net revenue interest) and a 50.00% working interest after payout (38.85% net revenue interest) in the Lennox State Unit 32 #2H well and will participate with a 50.00% working interest in all subsequent wells drilled by Caza on the Lennox property. -- The initial well at the Roja property in Lea County, NM, the Madera 17 Fed #1H horizontal Brushy Canyon well operated by OXY USA Inc. ("OXY"), has reached the intended total measured depth of approximately 13,568 feet. The well was recently fracture stimulated in multiple stages and is currently flowing back to clean up. After the initial flowback period, OXY intends to put the well on artificial lift to stabilize production. Once stabilized flow rates are established, the market will be updated accordingly. Caza has a 20.00% working interest (15.60% net revenue interest) in the Madera 17 Fed #1H well and the Roja property. -- The initial well at the Madera property in Lea County, NM, the Madera 35 Fed #1H horizontal Bone Spring well, also operated by OXY, is currently drilling the horizontal section of the well. The pilot hole was drilled and logs were recently obtained. Based on analysis of the log data, OXY will begin drilling the lateral section of the well through the primary objective 3rd Bone Spring Sand interval to a total measured depth of approximately 16,839 feet. Once the horizontal section is complete, the well will be fracture stimulated and the market will be updated accordingly. Caza has a 20% working interest (15.60% net revenue interest) in the Madera 35 Fed #1H well and the Madera property. -- Caza is also preparing the Gateway and West Copperline Bone Spring prospects for drilling subsequent to the Caza Ridge 14 State #4H well. W. Michael Ford, Chief Executive Officer commented: "We are very pleased with the Company's current operations in the Bone Spring play. The first Caza Ridge well at Copperline was a very good result, which we hope to duplicate with the recently commenced Caza Ridge development well. The Lennox well has tested commercial for oil and natural gas in two of the three Bone Spring Sand intervals, and we look forward to completing the artificial lift system and bringing the well online very soon. The OXY operated Madera and Roja wells are progressing nicely, and we look forward to providing results on these wells and bringing them online in the near future, as well." "Lennox, Madera and Roja provide the Company with good development potential across expansive lease areas. This should mean repeatable success across multiple oil and liquids-rich zones in the broader Bone Spring play. The stacked pay potential for oil and liquids-rich gas is what makes this play so intriguing. It's also the reason management has focused efforts on the play, and what should ultimately make the play successful for Caza and create value for our shareholders."

To the editor: I attended the special meeting for Carolina Shores Friday. Boy, was I disappointed. Not only could these agenda items have waited for the regular meeting in August but we, the citizens of Carolina Shores,could not voice our opinions.
There was a rush to fill the vacancy left by commissioner John Csernecky with former mayor of Carolina Shores Dan Mann. After he was sworn in, he was voted in as mayor pro tem.
To the editor: There was a letter by a Mr. Shutt in June asking people to read their Bibles. For that, I fully agree because that is the reason that so many church members have been misled by some of their misled preachers.
Some preachers have been to my home to talk about religion and I would ask them questions about certain verses in the Bible, such as: Were Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Jacob's 12 sons ever called Jews, and where did the word come from?
And if the Jews in the time of Jesus were Israelites, why did he send his apostles away (Matthew: 10-5)?
Waterways in Brunswick County are often busy, but they can get hectic and dangerous this time of year.
Last week, at the beginning of the Fourth of July holiday weekend, people were injured in a boat wreck near Holden Beach. How sad it is that the wreck appears to have involved alcohol and a law enforcement official who, if what he is charged with is true, should have known better.
This week, a Calabash town commissioner confirmed current town administrator Jeremy Cribb is being investigated by the town's personnel committee. Tuesday night, the board of commissioners decided to extend his probationary period for 90 more days.
Even though the town's personnel policy requires a background check of applicants, one was not done before Cribb was hired, and now questions about his experience and criminal record have surfaced.
Citizens of Calabash, is this how you want your community represented?
First, the men and women you elected for Calabash Board of Commissioners ignored town hiring policy and hired a person—for its lead administrative position—without doing any educational, work experience or criminal background checks.
You don't attend a naturalization ceremony and leave unchanged.
That's the lesson I learned earlier this month when I was assigned to cover the annual Fourth of July Festival Naturalization Ceremony in Southport.
Now, I've been to nearly every Fourth parade in Southport since I was born. (The only time I remember sitting one out is when I was eight-and-a-half months pregnant.)
It wasn't until I moved to the South that I discovered the truth behind beauty pageants.
Growing up in Midwest suburbia, they didn't mean much more than tuning in once a year to catch the last five minutes of the Miss America pageant, only to see who was crowned that year's queen.
Living in the South, I have become more exposed to them and have quickly learned beauty pageants are much more than meets the eye.
Walking up to the skydiving hangar at the Brunswick County Airport on Oak Island Saturday, I elbowed my boyfriend Cory when I saw a brand new convertible Corvette parked nearby.
"Of course an adrenaline junkie would have a fast car," I laughed as we moved closer.
Cory beamed. He smiled at the car. He smiled at the planes on the runway. He smiled at me. That day, his 35th birthday, he was more than eager to get inside and mark a life adventure off his bucket list—going skydiving.
While I was excited, I was more than a bit apprehensive.

Ohio's Top Students Not as Good at Math, Science as Kids in Korea, Singapore, China, Japan, Etc.
Ohio eighth-graders scored better than average on an international test in math and science.
But few Ohio eighth-graders are capable of the highest levels of math and science reasoning compared to students in countries including Korea, Singapore, China and Japan, according to a federal study released today.
Here's how eighth-graders in Ohio and neighboring states compare to their peers internationally:
Source: National Center for Educational Statistics. Additional information and data on other states can be found here.
Students can reason with information, draw conclusions, make generalizations, and solve linear equations.
Students can solve a variety of fraction, proportion, and percent problems and justify their conclusions. Students can express generalizations algebraically and model situations. They can solve a variety of problems involving equations, formulas, and functions. Students can reason with geometric figures to solve problems. Students can reason with data from several sources or unfamiliar representations to solve multi-step problems.
SOURCE: National Center for Educational Statistics
"All of our high-performing states are being outperformed significantly by these other countries," he said.
The federal study uses scores from the National Assessment of Education Progress, a standardized test that students in nationwide take, to predict student performance on an international test that most students did not take–the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study.
The Brookings Institution's Tom Loveless, a scholar who studies things like whether American kids are smarter than kids in other countries, tells Education week the study "reinforces things we already knew:"
"We have states that do very well and score among the top countries in the world. And we also have states that score very poorly, alongside countries like Romania and Armenia," he said.
At the same time, the study allows American policymakers and educators to see how the range of their own states' variation compares to that of countries around the world, he said.
"It allows us to place state variation in international context," Mr. Loveless said. "For those people who think education is becoming more and more a global currency, knowing where we stand internationally is important."

|Watauga High Softball Team to Hold Benefit Spaghetti Dinner for Lenoir High Schooler
|Written by Adam Hicks
|Friday, 12 February 2010 08:52
The Watauga High School Varsity softball team will hold a benefit spaghetti supper tomorrow that will benefit a Lenoir high schooler who was struck by a drunk driver.
Deputy Town of Boone Clerk, Kim Brown's daughter plays softball at Watauga. Brown said proceeds will be donated to Ashlyn Pope, a senior and softball player from Hibriten High School. She and her father were involved in a wreck with a drunk driver last October. Pope took the majority of the impact and was pinned in the vehicle. Pope suffered severe multi-system trauma and broke her legs, arms, a vertebrae in her back, and her jaw.

Usher is leaving the one he's with.
The Confessions artist proved the rumor mill right Friday as he went ahead and filed for divorce from his wife of nearly two years, Tameka Raymond.
The couple have two sons together, 18-month-old Usher V, and Naviyd Ely, who was born in December.
There was talk of trouble in paradise earlier this week, the first we'd heard of the Raymonds' somewhat rocky road since Tameka was hospitalized in February after suffering life-threatening complications following a liposuction procedure in Brazil.
Usher's then-manager shot down the first round of breakup talk more than a year ago, calling reports of a split "100 percent not true."
The first hearing on the matter is set for July 15, according to the petition filed in Superior Court in Fulton County, Ga.
Usher and Tameka tied the knot twice in 2007, first in a superprivate civil ceremony that August in the groom's lawyer's office, and then a month later in front of about 200 guests at the Chateau Elan Winery & Resort in Atlanta.

As part of an on-going gearing up for the 2014 local elections Johnny Walsh who has served as an Independent Councillor on Ballinasloe Town Council for the past thirteen years has joined the Labour Party.
Cllr Walsh was honoured to serve as Mayor of Ballinasloe in 2001 and again in 2009 and is involved in many high profile organisations and committees in the town. He is chairman of the very successful Ballinasloe St Patrick's Day Parade; he is a member of the RAPID area implementation team, chairperson of the Ballinasloe Town AFC, a member of the Ballinasloe Area Community Development Company, founding member of the Ballinasloe Substance Misuse Response Group.

He is also active at in seeking to retain services at St. Bridget's Hospital, Ballinasloe.
Deputy Colm Keaveney said: "Cllr Walsh is a hard working local representative who is hugely respected by everyone in Ballinasloe.
"I saw this for myself first-hand when Johnny canvassed with me in Ballinasloe during the last General Election and I am delighted we will be working hard in Ballinasloe for the Labour Party."
Cllr Walsh said "I have known Deputy Colm Keaveney for many years and have worked with him on many trade union campaigns most recently the threat to close beds and psychiatric services in St Brigid's Hospital in the past few weeks and for this reason it has been a natural progression from the broad labour trade union movement to me joining the Labour Party.
"I have always represented the ordinary decent working and jobless people as well as the elderly and service users of social welfare and I intend to continue this as a Labour Party Representative with the benefit of enhanced services offered by being part of a bigger organisation."

Conscious Co-Parenting Coordination is a process where a qualified professional uses a mixture of education, mediation, arbitration, and coaching to reduce the amount of conflict that a family is experiencing.
The objective is to help the family transition through the separation process with as little conflict as possible, and if the conflict is already quite high, manage the conflict and help them progress more quickly to a point where they can function on their own. While we acknowledge that Parental Alienation exist and offer many service to help target parents and their children move through the difficulties of Parental Alienation, here at Conscious Co-Parenting Institute we believe that some cases of Parental Alienation can be prevented by taking the necessary steps in the beginning stages of separation and divorce to eliminate the phenomenon of Parental Alienation all together.
The break-up of a family is a tremendously difficult situation, and if one of the parents disengages from, or is unable to adequately perform, their parental role, or if one of the parents attempts to exclude the other from maintaining their role and relationship with the children (parental alienation), the conflict can escalate quickly and become extreme. In these situations, mediation is generally unsuccessful and counseling does not fully address the needs of the family.

I've dealt with anxiety for years, but nothing prepared me for this.
I've been too sick to work, to concentrate enough to review, to really leave the couch much. I may leave the house 1 or 2 days a week. It started in December and has changed from fatigue to severe pain and retching vomiting. Sometimes I also run a low-grade fever. I've had disturbed sinuses the entire time. My voice has remained raspy.
There are many, many nights when I am so exhausted, I take sleeping medication and I still can't sleep for feeling so bad. My body aches wake me during the night.
I've been through two rounds of a serious antibiotic, as well as trying three narcotic pain medicines before finding a non-narcotic one that actually helps the pain. Because of these medicines, in addition to the ones I have to take to keep from having panic attacks, I can no longer drive. There is absolutely no public transportation where I live. It wouldn't matter because most days I'm so fatigued I don't want to leave anyway.
As I said above, I have one or two days a week I don't feel quite so bad. I may be fatigued and have aches and pains, but I can at least go a little bit. Some days I can not take pain medicine and can feel safer driving. I enjoyed sex a couple of times. But…
This week, my body has gone downhill very, very quickly. I'm not able to eat as I should unless I smoke. Smoking sometimes makes me anxious these days so I don't like doing that at all.
I have surgery scheduled for next week.Everything, from the outside, seems like it's going to be okay. The problem is no one is realizing how badly my body is deteriorating.
My overall health has been failing since last September, when I had a Transient Ischemic Attack attack. It was the 3rd one I've had. The spring before that I had a strange mass in my abdomen with pain that finally went away when I stopped drinking diet drinks – but made me very sick in the mean time.
I'm very scared. I'd like to find out that I'm just suffering hypochondria – but that never happens. I am in excellent shape and take good care of myself when I am able. None of this adds up.
I started filming myself for my children. A video blog to them I suppose. I'm also going to start collecting pictures and things from my life and that I love to have for them.
Right now, I don't feel like I'm dying, but if my health continues this way my children won't get to know me as adults. That is the scariest thing in the whole world.
I going to write a list of all my sites and passwords. I've avoided that because I didn't want anyone finding it, but it should be done.
My finances are in shambles, but I have excellent life insurance that is paid. All the money I have is secured to the children in the proper legal manner.
I was raised to believe in God, but now I don't know what to call it. I think Buddha, Mother Earth, any of the others are appropriate. I pray to an unnamed higher power in my own way. I think we were all created to give our gifts to those who need them. My gifts are love and kindness and in the midst of all this I'm still praying to use them wisely.
What ever thought, prayer, other positivity you could send me would be greatly appreciated. Funny emails are also welcome. I don't get to laugh much these days.
Thank you,
Peace, hope & love
**Please note my doctor is now attributing all this to the Mirena IUD I had for 3.25 years. Hopefully when I am better I'll be able to give you all the details so you can know the warning signs that something is wrong with yours. The information about Mirena has all been tainted by its maker and doctors are not well informed of it. **

Weight Loss Tips To Motivate And Inspire 871867
People who want to lose weight normally start out with the best intentions. However, life usually takes over and then things change. Losing weight is not easy, and some just stop before getting to the goal. Others do make it to their goal, but have a hard time keeping the weight off. All it really just takes is following the proper guidelines and having a bit of self control. This article lists a few helpful tips that should help you lose the weight and keep it off.
In order to lose weight you should evaluate your diet and add in healthy foods that you are currently lacking. The reason for concentrating on missing foods, rather than removing what you know you shouldn't eat, is that good foods are more filling and more nutritious. If you are satisfied and healthy you will naturally crave less junk food, feel more energetic and take better care of yourself. Part of a fitness plan for weight loss should be strength training. Strength training will help burn more calories during exercise, as well as build muscle cells. Having a higher proportion of muscle cells in your body will increase your metabolism, as muscle cells burn more calories at rest than do fat cells.
While it is true that you don't want to tell everyone about your success it is good to choose one or two people who know exactly what you are doing. This is important because their motivation will help you to feel good and continue but also because they will help to hold you accountable. Sex is actually a wonderful weight loss activity. It is a fun work out, and you will enhance your relationship with your spouse. Healthy sex can actually control the amount of food you eat, and give you some motivation for sticking to your diet every day.
So when life is trying to get the best of you, and you are loosing sight of your goal, just take a look at the tips here. This has been advice used by many and will keep you on your desired path to lose the weight and keep the pounds off. http://www.greatgamedatabase.com/how-to-get-free-dirt-bike-games-online/

This report synthesizes findings of evaluations conducted between July 2013 and July 2014, covering 12 operations with a combined planned value of USD 3 billion (totaling over USD 1.7 billion funded), which targeted 14.3 million beneficiaries a year, were of varying types, durations and sizes and implemented in diverse settings.
The evaluations found all operations cohered well with national and sector policy frameworks. WFP is directly influencing policy and strategy formulation, and increasingly engaging in joint programming. WFP delivered broadly relevant food assistance, with most operations appropriate to overall needs; however, insufficient differentiation in the analysis and planning of some operations compromised planning for specific beneficiary needs. Results were inadequately documented, particularly at the outcome level, mainly because of weak monitoring systems. Evaluations revealed that the full extent of WFP's achievements – and under-achievements – is not currently reflected in reporting systems. General food distribution, school feeding and nutrition activities delivered well against coverage targets, with weaker performance in food assistance for assets. Evidence found that WFP served beneficiaries with less food than planned, however. Gender sensitivity was limited.
At the outcome level, WFP made most progress under Strategic Objective (SO) 1 - saving lives. Only limited data were available on SO2 (preventing acute hunger and investing in disaster preparedness and mitigation) and SO5 (capacity-development). Assessment of efficiency and sustainability was shallow; few operations were characterized as generally efficient or potentially sustainable.
External factors affecting results include WFP's complex operating terrain and funding. Internal factors are symptomatic of an organization in transition, progressing in introducing changes, but with business processes needing to adapt. The lessons presented in this synthesis report aim to support WFP as it becomes increasingly fit for purpose.

The popularity of school feeding programs make it imperative that we answer basic questions about the effectiveness of these programs. Do they boost enrollment and if so, are take-home rations as good as offering in-school meals? A proper lunch can ward off hunger, but is it enough to make up for years of nutritional deprivation? Children who aren't hungry can focus better in school—does this mean they will do better in their classes? The answers are critical if we want to create effective development programs.
12 May 2014
This paper uses a prospective randomized trial to assess the impact of two school feeding schemes on health and education outcomes for children from low-income households in northern rural Burkina Faso. The two school feeding programs under consideration are, on the one hand, school meals where students are provided with lunch each school day, and, on the other hand, take-home rations that provide girls with 10 kg of cereal flour each month, conditional on 90 percent attendance rate. After running for one academic year, both programs increased girls' enrollment by 5 to 6 percentage points.
8 May 2014
This summary presents the findings and implications from the three country-studies which were jointly undertaken by the World Bank, IFPRI and the World Food Programme on School Feeding Programmes in Burkina Faso, Uganda and Lao PDR between 2005 and 2008. The cases of Burkina Faso and Laos provide significant evidence on the positive impacts of school feeding on the policy-claimed objectives of education, nutrition and gender. The impact evaluation in Lao PDR shows how empirical research can help to identify the major challenges at policy level and to improve the design and implementation of school feeding programmes in the field.

The evaluation covers the operation Regional EMOP 200438 Assistance to Refugees and Internally Displaced Persons Affected by Insecurity in Mali, Mauritania, Burkina Faso, Niger (2012-2013). It was intended for both accountability and learning and focuses on assessing: i) the appropriateness and coherence of the operation; ii) its results; and iii) the factors explaining the results.
The evaluation assessed the nutritional support to refugees and internally displaced persons delivered throughout: general food distribution; cash and food for assets; nutritional support to children under five, pregnant and lactating women; supplementary feeding to infants aged 6-59 months; and school feeding.
The evaluation, which makes a number of recommendations for the future, was managed and conducted by a consultancy firm, with fieldwork taking place in 2014.

The mid-term evaluation covers WFP's country programme (CP) 200163 (2011-2015). It was intended for both accountability and learning and focuses on assessing: i) the appropriateness and coherence of the operation; ii) its results; and iii) the factors explaining the results.
The evaluation assessed the following activities: school feeding, nutritional support to children under five, pregnant and lactating women and HIV/TB patients, cash and food for assets, local purchase and support to local production of fortified foods as well as capacity development. The evaluation, which makes a number of recommendations for the future, was managed and conducted by a consultancy firm, with fieldwork taking place in January/February 2014.

Tuesday was the first day that same-sex couples were allowed to marry in Washington, D.C., and opponents of the new law are already vowing to fight to overturn it.
The measure known as the Marriage Equality Act was signed by D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty last December after the city council passed it. It then went through a review period during which Congress declined to intervene and the Supreme Court, as well as lower courts, rejected attempts to block it.
Supporters of the law hailed it as a step towards winning an important freedom for gay people nationwide.
However, Evan Wolfson, executive director of Freedom to Marry, pointed to recent setbacks of similar legislation in California and Maine, and said that "those of us impatient for the day when America no longer excludes committed couples from marriage have to redouble our efforts."
In fact, he is likely to face tough opposition as activists have vowed to force a ballot initiative to overturn the law, saying they believe city residents, and not just the council, should have a chance to vote on the issue.
Moreover, the Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington, which does not support same-sex marriages, has announced it will no longer extend job benefits to employee spouses not already enrolled, according to The Washington Post.
D.C. joins Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont in allowing same-sex couples to marry.

A Second 2255 Petition Need Not Satisfy 2244's Stringent "Gatekeeping" Requirements If Filed Before the First Petition Has Become Final
The essential facts are as follows. After the Circuit affirmed his conviction on direct appeal, Whab filed his first 2255 petition in April 2004. The district court dismissed the petition, and denied as well as a COA. Whab then sought a COA from the Circuit.
While that request was pending, Whab filed a new application in the Circuit in March 2005, seeking permission under 2244 to file a second 2255 petition. While this new application was pending, the Circuit denied the COA request on the first petition, in April 2005.
This opinion deals with Whab's application to file a second 2255 petition. The Circuit ruled that Whab did not need to satisfy 2244's gatekeeping provision because that provision is triggered only when the subsequent petition is filed after the first petition has become final. And because Whab's first 2255 petition was still pending in the Circuit (in the form of the request for a COA) when he filed his second 2255 petition (in the form of the application for permission to file a second petition he filed in the Circuit), 2244's gatekeeping provision does not come into play. As the Court summarized, "so long as appellate proceedings following the district court's dismissal of the initial petition remain pending when a subsequent petition is filed, the subsequent petition does not come within AEDPA's gatekeeping provisions for 'second or successive' petitions." Op. at 4. The Court thus transferred Whab's second 2255 petition to the district court, and instructed the district court to consider the petition without subjecting it to 2244's rigorous standard. Op. at 6.
Finally, the Court explained in a lengthy footnote that its opinion should "not be misconstrued as providing a free pass to prisoners to file numerous petitions before an initially filed petition is finally adjudicated on the merits." Op. 6 n.2. This is so because even though 2244's gatekeeping requirements do not apply in such cases, the traditional "abuse of writ" doctrine does. Id. (citing McClesky v. Zant, 499 U.S. 467 (1991)).
This is true enough -- but only to a point. Section 2244's requirements are far more difficult to satisfy than the court-created abuse of writ standards. Thus, it may well behoove a defendant in such a situation to file a second 2255 before his first has become final.

If I thought my week couldn't get any better, well I was wrong, it just got a million times better. You may be asking yourself, why? Or you're just scanning to the bottom of this post to see why it got better. Well let me explain what happened. No, I didn't find true love or become a Super Saiyan (still awaiting that glorious day,) but something more epic happened; Marvel UK released a brand new trailer for the upcoming film The Avengers.
You know I'm a geek, and you also know that I'm madly in love with superheroes. My background on Twitter (follow me @thinksoul25) is the ultimate collection of Marvel characters. My favorite thing to draw is superheroes, and some days I like to lay down on my bed, close my eyes, and daydream about having powers (yeah, I'm a geek…I know.) So when I first found out last year that they were releasing a movie about the Avengers, I almost passed out. Then the trailer came out, and I was speechless watching it over & over again.
So now Marvel releases yet another brand new trailer for The Avengers, and this time it's quite the epic experience. We actually get to see the Avengers assembling in order to fight this enemy threatening the global safety. Not only do we get to see glimpses of each Avenger being recruited, but the trailer ends with an awesome shot of the Avengers standing in a circle getting ready to unleash major damage; such an amazing shot!
I was already stoked about this film, but now I'm uber anxious for May 4th to arrive. The Avengers and Rise of the Dark Knight are probably going to be two films I can't wait to see this year. I might even have to see them over & over again. I saw X-Men: First Class over and over again (about 4 times,) so I know The Avengers is going to be one of those films I have to watch again, again, and then yes, once more for the sake of humanity!

Letter: Powerful religious right won't have truth-teller like Trudeau in newspapers
David Degnon, Port St. Lucie
Letter: Powerful religious right won't have truth-teller like Trudeau in newspapers
Garry Trudeau is lucky to have Doonesbury in any newspaper, as most big papers are owned by the rich and powerful who support most right-wing causes.
This right-wing religious right has the politicians in its pocket, as politicians use religion in many cases to get elected.
This same self-righteous group condemns Iranian, Syrian, Afghan and Muslim leaders for denying woman their rights and forcing them to obey their political and religious beliefs or be punished. I now see this starting to happen to women in America.
The Doonesbury strips pointed out how Texas Gov. Rick Perry and his group are using politics to pass laws that pander to the religious groups and strip women of their rights.
A women's body is her own, and having to be tested and humiliated is just the start for these politicians who feel they are God's judges on Earth.
It took many hard-fought years for women to get their rights. Ladies, wake up; fight for rights so hard gotten in past years before you lose them.
When people like Rush Limbaugh call women sluts who fight for their rights, it is a clear sign of where things may be headed unless we stand up to these people.

He told me the hand job I gave him this morning was "lovely".
You must be Logged in to post a comment
I think that's a hint for you to upgrade to something that rhymes with "schlow schob."
yeah and...?
There's nothing wrong with lovely
And the blowjob was "peachy"
Handjobs are pointless. If I wanted to be jerked off I'd do it myself.
Spoken like a true virgin.
probably because he was thinking of another guy while you were doing it...
If he was Australian or British then this is a win.
Lovely means he hated the way u were doing it.
I love the assumtion that Brits actually say lovely a lot... That's like assuming all Americans say y'all
At least it wasn't a self handjob, bc if you seriously would rather do it by yourself you have issues...
Handjobs are lame
Don't do him any favors- he can whack off without you
I use lovely as a legit word for good. Not AMAZING, but lovely....
"Well it was my pleasure darling."
Your mouth better be on the end of your hand
Probs a wannabe Brit
Whats wrong with doing it yourself? Nobody can get me off like I can get me off.
I think he was being sarcastic, hand jobs are far from lovely...

Airic's_arm is inspired by nature. Combining mechatronics and the model of human biology, the robotic arm shows new possibilities in automated motion sequences of the future.
Airic's_arm is equipped with artificial bones and muscles. 30 muscles move the bone structure comprising the ulna and radius, the metacarpal bones and the bones of the fingers as well as the shoulder joint and the shoulder blade; joints that are not found in the world of technology.
The muscles are a product of Festo and are already widely used in industrial practice under the name of Fluidic Muscle. This technology, combined with very small and highly innovative piezo proportional valves from Festo, enable us to accurately control the design's forces and rigidity. These actuators are coordinated by state-of-the-art mechatronic systems and software.
Extending the system of sensors of Airic's_arm, e.g. with cameras or elements for tactile perception, is just as plausible as the development of a design for a back, hip and neck. These extensions will also play an important role in robotics as even more dangerous and hazardous situations in technology could be assigned to them.

Accepted Frewen (1588–1664) was a priest in the Church of England and Archbishop of York from 1660 to 1664.
Frewen was born at Northiam, in Sussex, the son of John Frewen who was the rector there. The unusual forename is an example of the type of puritan name not uncommon in the area in the late sixteenth century; his brother was called Thankful Frewen.[1] He was educated at Magdalen College, Oxford, where he became a Fellow in 1612.[2] Anthony Wood describes him as being at that time "puritanically enclin'd".[3] In 1617 and 1621 the college allowed him to act as chaplain to Sir John Digby, ambassador in Spain. In Madrid he preached a sermon that pleased Prince Charles, afterwards Charles I, who, on his accession, appointed him one of his chaplains.
In 1625 he became canon of Canterbury Cathedral and Vice-President of Magdalen College, and in the following year he was elected President. He was Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University in 1628 and 1629, and again in 1638 and 1639. In 1631 he was appointed (additionally) Dean of Gloucester. It was mainly by his instrumentality that the University plate was sent to the king at York in 1642.
Two years later (in 1644) he was consecrated Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry, and resigned his presidency (and deanery). Parliament declared his estates forfeited for treason in 1652, and Cromwell afterwards set a price on his head. The proclamations, however, designated him Stephen Frewen, and he was consequently able to escape into France. At the Restoration he reappeared in public, and in 1660 he was consecrated Archbishop of York. In 1661 he acted as chairman of the Savoy conference.

The New Year brings with it a fresh new start. There's something about a new year that spurs us to want a new beginning. Just ask the diet and exercise equipment companies; their busiest time of the year is January. One of my clients specializing in exercise equipment, videos and apparel would joke that Christmas season was not very busy, their black Friday was Jan. 1.

Generation Kill: Bomb in the Garden (mini-series finale)
(Part 7 of 7) "Dude, check it out. I wrote U.S.A. with my piss." - Person
All that for nothing. Not much was gained and so much was lost. Over the span of Generation Kill we've all marveled at the ineptitude and idiocy of the people running the show over in First Recon, but not until this episode did it become clear that it wouldn't have made a difference who was in charge - dumb or stupid. This was a losing battle before it even began. Operation Iraqi Freedom? US military PR at it's finest.

Generation Kill: Stay Frosty
(Part 6 of 7) "You know, Iraqis don't really seem good at fighting, but they never really completely surrender either." - Person
And therein lies the difference between the Iraqi Republican Guard forces and the Fist Recon Marines: heart. Guess which side is lacking it?
The point is furthered even more when most of First Recon finds solace and happiness as they realize that their mission is over. M.R.E. milkshakes, Colbert's stash of Chef Boyardee, and an unopened issue of Juggs are the things that make people smile now.
So while everyone is celebrating the end, leave it to Brad to run around with his shirt off, giddy that Godfather is giving First Recon one more mission - one more chance to maybe, just maybe, do something remotely close to what they were trained for.
Generation Kill: A Burning Dog
(Part 5 of 7) "You think givin' them some rice and a chocolate bar is gonna fix things?" - Espera
This was by far the best installment Of Generation Kill we've seen yet. Burns and Simon stayed 100% true to Wright's account. I remember reading about the battle on the bridge at Muwafaqiyah and wondering what all that insanity must have looked like. To be so scared that, as Trombley put it, the adrenaline rush is so intense that it messes up your blood flow and some Marines achieve happenstance erections.
It wasn't just the bridge battle that made this one such a memorable episode though. Along with the continuing escalation of stupidity by all those with higher rank, there were some great scenes where we saw Colbert, Fick, Hasser, and even Encino Man evolve. Clichéd as it may sound, war changes people and we're bearing witness to some pretty screwed up transformations.
Generation Kill: Combat Jack
(Part 4 of 7) "Well sir, it's just that you're incompetent, sir." - Doc Bryan
I've asked before, and I'll ask again: why aren't more of the good guys dying? When CIA-trained Iraqi friendlies get waxed by Saddam's Republican Guard because they don't have a clue? When leadership like Encino Man are floored to hear that they're stupid? When men like Captain America don't understand how using enemy weapons could cause harm? Why aren't more of the good guys dying?
It's because of the bottom on the totem pole players. The Colberts. The Persons. The Ficks. The Esperas. It's because of them that we're getting to see their story as a humorous account on HBO and not as some sappy, tears in your eyes Ken Burns PBS documentary.
What's On Tonight: Hannah Montana, Mad Men, Football
- At 8, ABC has a new High School Musical: Get in the Picture.
- CBS has a new Big Brother at 8.

Generation Kill: Screwby
(Part 3 of 7) "Yeah... these guys waving at us are probably the same ones who tried to kill us yesterday." - Cpl. Josh Ray Person
On the road again. More banter. More offensive jokes. And lots more stupidity. Honestly, the fact that no one has uttered the word "mutiny" is mind-boggling. To the contrary, everyone has fallen in line. I'm not sure if you caught it, but Sixta's constant harping about the grooming standard finally worked. All moustaches were gone.
I'm serious about the mutiny thing though... honestly, this is like having Michael Scott (from The Office) as your commanding officer, only with extra idiocy and far less humor.
Generation Kill: The Cradle of Civilization
(Part 2 of 7) "You gotta respect the pajama." - Sgt. Brad Colbert
At the end of this episode, I find myself less enthralled with the battle scenes we finally witnessed and more anxious to just hear what these "devil dogs" will say next. Seeing Colbert and the rest of Bravo Company get "lit up" as they rolled through Al Gharraf was impressive, yet it was still nothing new. War is in the movies and it's on TV and this was standard fare.
Thus far, Simon and Burns have stayed very true to Wright's account, and for those that have read the book, the battle descriptions hold nothing to Colbert and Person's banter. Sadly, we know war. What we don't know is the people who are fighting it. Now we do. And apparently, they think that patriotic, "I love America" songs are "straight homosexual, country music, Special Olympic gay."
Generation Kill: Get Some (mini-series premiere)
(Part 1 of 7) "Marines! Kill on three! One! Two! Threeeeee....!" - Sgt. Maj. John Sixta
HBO doesn't have much going on right now. They're lacking hits. There are some new favorites out there that have wowed critics, but lack viewers, like In Treatment, Flight of the Conchords, and Tell Me You Love Me. The ruling days of Tony Soprano, Nate Fisher, Carrie Bradshaw, and Al Swearengen are done. Once the fall season starts off, the veteran Entourage will make a welcome return and HBO is also putting a lot of faith in Alan Ball's new drama, True Blood - a vampire saga that is, if you ask me, almost doomed to fail. HBO doesn't exactly have a stellar track record with specialized dramas that demand niche audiences. Regardless, it hasn't slowed them down. HBO Films' last effort John Adams was well received and now comes Generation Kill, based on the book of the same name by Rolling Stone's Evan Wright. I've read it, twice, and it's a damn shame this is only a mini-series because it's the best thing on TV this summer.

Generation Kill coming to HBO in July - VIDEO
I remember seeing a promo for Generation Kill very briefly after the series finale of The Wire, but at the time I didn't think much of it. Which is crazy, really, because the promo clearly states that it's a new mini-series from the creators of The Wire. I should have been psyched but for whatever reason, I sort of just forgot about it. It's not like it's new or anything. David Simon and Ed Burns have been signed on to the project since Februrary of 2007. With the July air-date approaching, I would imagine they've been working on it since The Wire wrapped back in September. I feel like we've heard nothing about it though. Then last week I was in a Barnes & Noble and I saw the book (same title) that the seven part mini-series is based on. I bought it and read it in about 2 days cover to cover. Holy crap was it good.
Generation Kill mini-series coming to HBO
Expect to see nothing but Iraq war films, miniseries and television shows coming out of Hollywood over the next couple of years. Enough time has passed since the war's inception to see all manner of first person narratives and analysis published and snapped up by production companies. What distinguishes Generation Kill is its look at the war's earliest days, the specificity with which it addresses military bueracracy and its characterization of today's soliders. They are not their WWII and Vietnam counterparts. As Wright described them, Marines are "on more intimate terms with videogames, reality TV shows and Internet porn than they are with their own parents." Different generation. Different war.

Meteorologist David Payne leaving KFOR-4 to join KWTV-9
Payne eventually will succeed Gary England as KWTV chief meterologist when he decides to retire, said David Griffin, CEO and chairman of Griffin Communications.

KWTV announced that Payne will handle the weather reports at 4 and 5 p.m. weekdays. England, 73, will continue to handle the weathercasts at 6 and 10 p.m. as well as lead the station's severe weather coverage while Payne storm chases.
A fourth generation Oklahoman and a 1993 University of Oklahoma graduate, Payne is an Emmy Award winning meteorologist with a total of six Emmy wins and 12 nominations. He was born in Guthrie and raised in Edmond. His family still owns land acquired during the Oklahoma Land Run of 1889.

|Has any NFL player been killed on the field during a game?
I have watched football, and have seen some nasty hard hits. A ton of injuries. I have seen players get hit so hard that I can feel it. I was curious if anyone had ever died on the field. I have seen the broken leg injury that was televised.
Yes. A backup wide receiver for the Lions around 1970 died on the field, but he died of a heart attack.
no not yet
None that I've ever known of...one day that might happen...I hope not!
in 1970 for the lions
An Arena Football player from the LA Avengers died two years ago. He was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead on the same day.
