›› Photos: UTEP soccer vs. Memphis
UTEP pulled a soccer rabbit out of its magic hat on a beautiful, breezy, sun-splashed Sunday afternoon at University Field -- dancing past No. 22 Memphis 4-1 in a key Conference USA match.
Actually, there was nothing magical about the Miner win.
UTEP was physical and feisty and played with poise, breaking away from a scoreless tie at intermission to hand Memphis its first Conference USA loss since 2010 ... when the Tigers fell to UTEP at this same University Field.
Miner coach Kevin Cross did pull the magic that is Azia Nicholson out of his coaching cap, though. He assigned the talented Nicholson to mark Conference USA Player of the Year Christabel Oduro and, though the talented Oduro did get the lone Memphis goal, it was not when Nicholson was near her. Oduro collected an errant keeper clear and punched it in for her lone shot of the afternoon.
Of course, in any special win, it is never just one person. Tori Martyn was both exceptional and relentless, scoring a pair of goals. Tess Hall was her usual amazing self, scoring a goal and setting up her teammates with two assists. Jade Babcock was fast and physical and had a goal and an assist.
But it was also more than just marking Oduro and more than just scoring goals. Defenders Kenah Linger, Hannah Asuchak and Tayler O'Hayre were almost always in the right place, fighting for space and clogging passing lanes. Keeper Sarah Dilling was again exceptional. The Miners also got strong play from senior Brittany Kindzierski and freshmen Alexis Alaniz and Taylor Kidd.
"We knew we had to bring our very, very, very best performance," said Cross, whose Miners improved to 9-6 overall and 2-4 in conference play. "If any one of our players took a day off against the No. 22 team in the nation, we would be in trouble. I thought we could be good on set pieces against them. I told Azia at breakfast I wanted her to mark Oduro. She (Oduro) is so talented. Her and Natasha Kai (Hawaii) are the best players I've seen in this conference in my 15 years here. And Azia did an incredible job."
Nicholson smiled, shrugged and said, "That was my special assignment. Kevin told me at breakfast and I'll do anything to help our team win but I knew it was going to be a long, long day. Gosh, yes, that was our best performance of the year. But each game we are gaining confidence."
Memphis, now 9-4 overall and 5-1 in C-USA and ranked No. 22 in the nation in the Soccer America poll, had won 25 straight conference games -- 30 counting last year's conference tournament.
Martyn, wearing ice bags on her thigh for a quad strain and her ankle, said, "This whole season we've put good halves together. But today we put a 90 minute game together. At times it might not have been the prettiest soccer. But we played well and Tess was amazing, putting balls in perfect places. This is crazy. I hadn't scored a goal in two years, since I was a freshman, and I score three this weekend and two against Memphis. We're just really excited right now."
And Babcock said, "We've been more on anticipating ... putting high pressure on a team's back line. We've practiced and practiced and I think today we executed what we practiced. Kevin talked to me about using my speed, using my strength and I tried to do that."
The Miners, playing without injured Gina Soto, Skye Schultz and Mackenzie German, put it all together on this sun-swept Sunday afternoon. It was magical but there was nothing magic about the hard work and good play.
Volleyball tops Houston
UTEP swept Houston 3-0 Sunday afternoon in Houston, taking a 25-19, 25-20, 25-16 win over the Cougars.
The Miners, now 11-8 on the season and 5-2 in the Conference USA volleyball race, were led by Jeane Horton with 15 kills, Xitlali Herrera with nine kills, 11 digs, two blocks, Victoria Valencia with a match high 17 digs and setter Malia Patterson with 32 assists, five kills, two blocks and two aces. Houston fell to 4-13 and 3-4.
The Miners will next play at Tulsa Friday night and at SMU next Sunday.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) - Members of the U.N. Security Council met Saturday to discuss a draft resolution, agreed to by the U.S. and France, that seeks a full halt to fighting in Lebanon.
U.S. Ambassador John Bolton describes the meeting as "very
Bolton calls the U.S.-French draft "a workable resolution" and says it could contribute to a fundamental transformation in the region.
But Hezbollah warns it will not abide by the resolution unless Israel withdraws from Lebanon entirely.
The text also ignores three Lebanese demands: setting a timetable for an Israeli withdrawal from the south, lifting Israel's full blockade of Lebanon and putting the disputed Chebaa Farms area under U.N. control.
As the Lebanese special envoy (Nouhad Mahoud) puts it, "We
would have liked to see our concerns more reflected in the text."

Historical Romance
Rating: 4 Cups
Melisande has always tried to blend in and hates being the center of attention. She has resigned herself to being a spinster after a broken engagement, but she has always been in love with Jasper Renshaw.
Jasper, the Viscount Vale, has been left at the altar twice now. He wants a wife and family to help him forget about the tragedy at Spinner's Falls. On the surface he is the bright and social man he has always been, but that is only on the surface.
The massacre at Spinner's Falls haunts the survivors, especially the knowledge that they were betrayed by one of their own. Lord Vale is determined to find out who betrayed them, both to assuage his own guilt, and to avenge the friends and comrades he lost there. He has a duty to his family to marry and sire an heir, but he has lost two fiancées to other men. After the last debacle, Melisande Fleming offers to be his bride. It appears this nondescript woman has depths he has yet to discover.
I really like this series and so far this one is my favorite. Jasper and Melisande are an unlikely couple. He is a handsome rake and man about town; she is a plain homebody with an ornery dog. Unlike most of the men of his time, he is actually a faithful husband, despite his late night wanderings. The continuing mystery of who betrayed the men at Spinner's Falls is getting more interesting and mysterious after a trip to Scotland. Both characters have more to them than they show on the surface, and once they finally get to know each other they find the love they both dreamt of. The subplot of Melisande's previous engagement left me with a few questions, but the other, of Mrs. Fitzwilliam's situation, make me look forward to the next book.

If the contrasting cultures of the sports teams is any indication, the West Coast and East Coast have business cultures that seem much more suited to the battlefield than to any sort of cooperation.
The laid back West Coast business culture of jeans and stylish shirts seems unequipped for any type of real organization, but their dress and mannerisms may be a cover for handling the extremely delicate and high profile dealings of the entertainment business.
Contrast that to the buttoned-down, sharks-in-the-water business style of New York and the East Coast. Even though you can always count on an East Coast businessman to be dressed to the nines, they do more playing in the financial markets then perhaps any other profession on the face of the earth.
No matter which culture you come from, you want to stay protected with the same type of ironclad insurance that is just as good on the West Coast as it is on the East. BusinessInsurance.org is the place for you to find the protection that you need.
With the proper insurance protection in place, it does not matter what your dress style or your attitude is. What matters is that you get the job done and protect yourself from the many malicious forces that would take your business down.
In this overly litigious society, you can almost expect to have people looking to separate you from your money from the second you get any sort of success. You must be prepared for this kind of reaction from the people you come into contact with. You can prepare yourself with professional insurance and liability insurance, as well as many other types of business insurance that are specially crafted to protect your interests against the worst forces in the culture.
These forces tend to blend in to either culture. They work the same way no matter where you go. They look for businesses who do not have the proper protection and goad them into situations in which they have little choice but to separate themselves from their money. Using BusinessInsurance.org can keep you from dealing with this unscrupulous character, whether you doing business on the West Coast or the East Coast.

Doc Stumbo reaches for his favorite side dish at Uncle John's Place, fried potatoes with onions and peppers. / DAVE POLCYN/NEWS JOURNAL
Uncle John's Place
"A lot of people think we're done for," Nick Tanchevski, son of owner John Tanchevski, said. "Nah, nah, nah. We're still goin'! We're anticipating the changes, waiting to see what happens."
However, Nick said depending on how things go with the upgrade, Uncle John's might do a little remodeling, too -- independently.
Uncle John's Place is by far the most-nominated restaurant in this column's three-month history, and you know what? I understand why.
It's a place where regulars exchange easy greetings under the muted glow of yellow glass lamps. It's a place to enjoy good food at a fair price, catch up on the game or a little news and share a few drinks after work. And it has been that way for decades.
"Everything here is good," Graham Auto Mall community relations manager Doc Stumbo said. "Pork chops, steak, fish sandwich ..."
He said he has been stopping in from time to time during his rounds throughout the community, "for 30 years, at least."
Each of us ordered one of Uncle John's popular cheeseburgers. At Doc's urging, we ordered both a big plate of french fries and a heap of home fries, grilled with onions and banana peppers.
The food was great, the burger absolutely fell to pieces while I was eating it (as any respectably loaded burger should), and the server kept my coffee mug brimming.
So what did Nick Tanchevski, son of owner John "Uncle John" Tanchevski himself, think about the restaurant's plentiful nominations?
"Wow, that's crazy," he said. "I'm flattered, but I don't know if I'm surprised."
There was no point for him to feign modesty. He knows his dad treats customers right.
"Dad's been so nice and friendly, making good food, it keeps people coming back," Nick said.
"It's the kind of place where you come hang out, catch up on the events of the day with people you know. It's accessible to a lot of the downtown people."
One of them is attorney Les Wagner, whose office is in the nearby Richland Bank building.
"I usually sit at the bar, bring a newspaper, catch some news on TV," Wagner said. "It's nice to relax and have some time to yourself. It's nice to have someone take care of you when you're taking care of other people all day."
His paralegal, Kara Hylton, agreed.
"The waitresses know what you want when they see your face," she said.
Uncle John's Place: It's a neighborhood stalwart, packed with the people you know, at least by reputation if not directly, where you can enjoy a good meal and have good people take care of you.
My kind of place.

University of Louisville junior quarterback Brian Brohm said after Saturday's game that he "definitely expected" to return for his senior season.
Brohm clarified his statement on Sunday, saying that he would keep his National Football League options open until after the Orange Bowl.
"I'll send in the early entry form (to the NFL to evaluate his draft status) to see what comes back and where I stand," Brohm said.

Killer shark sought in Texas man's death
Posted By -NO AUTHOR- On 12/27/2011 @ 12:39 am In Diversions,Front Page,U.S. | No Comments
(CHRON) — A Houston man killed this weekend by a great white shark in Australia was doing what he enjoyed most – fishing and diving – at the time of the brutal attack, his father said.
George Thomas Wainwright, 32, suffered fatal injuries Saturday when he was bitten by a 10-foot great white during a solo dive off the coast of Rottnest Island near Perth, Western Australia.
The avid outdoorsman and Texas A&M graduate was a marine systems engineer involved with capping the Macondo well after last year's BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Fans at risk from footie maniaComment on this story
Paris – If the TV commercials piggybacking on the World Cup are to be believed, watching a football match is fun, healthy and sociable.
Slim young men and women spring up from the sofa like gazelles to celebrate a goal. If they lose, they commiserate peacefully with a rueful shrug. And, of course, they only consume alcohol and food in modest, balanced proportions.
Reality, as you may have guessed, is rather different from the Never Never Land of television ads.
For hundreds of millions of fans, say experts, the World Cup will be a life-affirming fiesta but for others it will be unhealthy, painful or even lethal.
Statistics show that football's great parties are typically accompanied by a surge in heart attacks, suicide, depression, assaults, road accidents, binge-drinking and pigging out on artery-clogging, waistline-expanding junk food.
"The biggest risk comes from emotional stress which builds up during the match," said Jean-Francois Toussaint, director of France's Institute of Sport Biomedical Research and Epidemiology (IRMES).
"The risk is naturally greater when a fan's team loses rather than when it wins because the cumulative stress is negative."
Investigators in the southern Germany city of Munich found that local hospital admissions for heart attacks or palpitations rose 266 percent on days when the national team were playing in the 2006 World Cup which was hosted by the Germans.
Researchers at the University of Birmingham in central England even recommended that penalty shootouts be banned "on public health grounds" after discovering that the tally of heart attacks in Britain rose by a quarter on the day England lost on kicks against historic rival Argentina in the 1998 tournament.
In the northwestern English county of Lancashire, incidents of domestic abuse rose by 38 percent when England's team played and lost in the 2002, 2006 and 2010 World Cups, police reported.
One of the big movers and shakers is hormones – and not just testosterone, found in both men and women, which is associated with aggression.
Spanish researchers were intrigued when they monitored cortisol, a stress hormone released when one's social image is under threat, among 50 male and female supporters of the national team before, during and after the 2010 final against the Netherlands.
Cortisol levels surged in the runup to the match, particularly among the most passionate supporters, men and among younger fans, but then fell back after the 1-0 victory.
The curve highlights fears about the crushing shame of defeat on group identity, the scientists believe.
Combining such hormonal drivers with the emotional rollercoaster of football can powerfully affect behaviour, say specialists.
French scientists last year calculated that fans consumed nearly a fifth more calories after their team lost than after when it won. Intake of unhealthy saturated fats and added sugars rose by nearly half in calorie terms.
The suspected reason: when a favourite team loses, people feel an identity threat and are likelier to turn to comfort food to help them cope Ä an exercise psychologists call "escape from self-awareness."
Winning, though, seems to provide a boost to self-control. There is no need for mood repair.
Sex, too, is an area that can be hugely affected by football mania.
Last year, doctors in Catalonia reported that local births rose by 16 percent nine months after Andres Iniesta scored a last-minute goal against Chelsea to give Barcelona a berth in the 2009
Champions League final.
The infants have been dubbed the "Iniesta Generation" by the Spanish press.
In the 2010 World Cup, British health watchdogs enlisted the help of "Beer Goggles Johnny" to advise fans heading to South Africa.
The cartoon character cautioned that being drunk alters perception of risk and of other people. Booze literally magnifies another person's attractiveness, and sex without a condom could lead to HIV and other diseases.
"No glove, No love," Beer Goggles Johnny said sagely. – Sapa-AFP

Chivas USA not tied to potential LA stadium
The organization that oversees the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and the neighboring Sports Arena has submitted an environmental impact report that examines the possibility of knocking down the arena and building either an amphitheater or a 22,000-seat Major League Soccer stadium.
Amid rumors that Chivas USA are eager to one day leave the Home Depot Center, which they share with the LA Galaxy, could this new downtown stadium be a future home field for the Goats?
"We are looking for our own place, but we're at the Home Depot Center for the next three years," Chivas USA press officer David Lindholm told MLSsoccer.com. "The EIR didn't mention anything about us, and we don't comment on speculation or rumors."
Jonathan Lee, the director of marketing and events at the LA Memorial Coliseum and Sports Arena, said the Coliseum Commission's report was the very beginning of a long process.
"At this point, the stadium is more theoretical than anything," Lee said. "All the EIR does is clear the way for a potential stadium if that was the way to go."
The public has 45 days to comment on the report, a period that ends Dec. 30.
According to Lee, assuming there aren't any major complaints from the general public – and he doesn't expect there to be any – the Commission will begin exploring its options at the end of the year.

There is something admirable about "Fun Size."
Not in how it succeeds, because it doesn't. Whoo, boy, it doesn't. Rather, in how bad it is on so many levels, in how it will offend and disappoint different segments of its audience for different reasons. It's an equal-opportunity bad movie. Something to hate for everyone!
Except. â?1/8 Maybe 'tweens will embrace it as a sort of JV "Superbad," a first dip into the toe of grown-up-seeming movies, that delicious first taste of something that feels forbidden. To which the only proper response is to tell them to sneak out and rent a movie like "Say ...

See what Slithers!
With more than 65 habitats, you will find slithering, scaly, shiny and sleek animals to fascinate you and enhance your learning experience at the Herpetarium. Built in 1928, the historic building has recently undergone renovations to highlight a vibrant diversity of reptiles and amphibians from around the world.
You can see a variety of reptiles, from a giant reticulated python to the impressive king cobra. You'll be amazed at our anaconda and venomous Mexican beaded lizards. You can learn how the shingleback skink got its name or where a scheltopusik comes from. And you won't want to miss Rattlesnake Wall which showcases several species of rattlesnakes from around the world.
If you prefer amphibians, take a look at the critically endangered Kaiser spotted newts, which in the wild are limited to one mountain range in Iran. Don't forget our awesome axolotls that, in the wild, are only found one place on earth--a lake beneath Mexico City.
The Reptile and Amphibian staff members who care for these animals have received many awards for first-time breeding and successfully propagating more than 100 different species of reptiles and amphibians in captivity. They also share their interest in these animals beyond the walls of the Herpetarium by participating in conservation projects in Oklahoma and other countries around the world.

You'd leave a trail of fire if the track wasn't covered in snow, because the Fischer Exercise Classic NIS Binding allows incredible power transfer and enhanced control for skating and racing. Once you fix your toe into this manual NIS binding, you'll feel how little space there is between your boot and the ski, which prevents energy loss and adds more speed to your strides.
- The broad binding plate and dual guide rails increase stability and the ability to control your skinny skis at high speeds
- A high-bond compound connection permanently joins the ski and binding, providing an even transfer of power and a predictable overall flex
- The NIS binding plate lets you slide the entire binding and balance point forward or backward to match the skier, track, or snow conditions

The price is right
I tried these out on a pair of rec skis I keep for getting around the property in the winter and they work just fine. Easy to get in and out of, are pretty durable and incredibly easy to install. The pricing is right for these I must add. I don't think I would throw them down on a pair of nicer touring skis, but for a pair of beaters, the do quite well.

i'm not as sharp as some viewers, at the end when the plant is shown, i thought it was gus who had poisoned the child.. and i agree that the "fix my tie" thing was over the top!
i dont care for skyler, will she get any comeuppance? cannot wait for the next season..
i too, doubt Gus will go..he has been one the series best characters..i think he'll be here till series ends..and yes, Esposito deserves an Emmy for his portrayal!
espositos acting is superb.i sense some empathy for him to the jesse and walt characters...makes me kinda sad to think he will be done away with..

Stormy skies make for beautiful pictures
Late October is the traditional start of the stormy season, and this year has been no different.
Take a look at a few photos of Mother Nature using the sky as her easel as clouds become a more dominant feature.
First up is a great sunset taken by Maia Pereyda from Kennydale on Oct. 19. She says Lake Washington was a smooth as glass and gave it a mirror-like quality to the sunset going on above:
Next, it's surf's up near Port Angeles. Rick Sistek (yes, related -- he's my Dad, not to mention KOMO's resident Port Angeles weather spotter) took this photo Saturday afternoon while the storms were raging to the east and south. He says moments after this photo was snapped, a huge fog bank rolled in and he couldn't even see the trees at the end of the bluff there.
Just how stormy was it to the east and south? Time lapse video to the rescue. Here are the videos from both Dr. Dale Ireland's Silverdale camera and the UW Atmospheric Sciences Bldg. web camera on Sat. Oct. 17 and Wednesday, Oct. 21. Note on the 21st there a great Convergence Zone in the afternoon that seemingly sends the clouds into reverse.
October 17
October 21:
Have a great weekend!

I can't help but look at horror movies and laugh. It might have something to do with my favorite contribution to horror with the Evil Dead series. It might also be that the genre is so stale with the same old tales or torture porn that I'm just not that interested in it. When I first heard that Joss Whedon was working on "a kids in a cabin in the woods horror film," I rolled my eyes. The man has given us some great television shows and films, but this is just a cliché done to hell and back. After watching the trailer though, I have to say there is a small glimmer of hope.
As with seemingly all horror movies, Cabin in the Woods starts off with a group of friends going on a trip to places unknown. We know they rented an RV, for some reason they need a dirt bike, and eventually they'll need to stop for gas. Once they start going, the location is said to be a location that is so far off the grid that, "[…] it doesn't even show up on the GPS. It is unworthy of global positioning." Seriously, I cannot make this up. That is an actually like that is spoken while driving to their destination.
When the group does stop for gas, they try to pump at a place that looks like it was half torn down by a bulldozer and been forgotten by time. The group tries to find someone to help them pump gas, but no one seems to be around. That is until an old creepy guy tells them that they are closed. GPS can't find the location they are headed to, so they ask the creepy attendant if he knows they route to some random road in the mountains. He was more than happy to oblige in telling them that he could get them there, but they'd be on their own getting back. It was no big problem for him to send this honest looking group of kids to their death…I mean destination.
Eventually they arrive safe and sound to a cabin- in the woods. I think I've seen this movie before. Let's see, I recall a book. It was called necktie. Nectar. Nickel. Noodle. It's an 'N' word, definitely an 'N' word. Oh yeah, Necronomicon. This isn't that terrible planned remake, so I know it can't be Evil Dead. I don't have a sudden craving for flesh and pancakes, so this can't be Eli Roth's Cabin Fever either. I can't shake the familiar feeling to it though. Strange.
Odd, what's this bird doing? Oh sh…
From here the group parties like it is the last day on Earth. Everyone goes swimming. Music and dancing are going on in the middle of the night. Thor taps the keg and proclaims its party time. A blonde chick dances on the fireplace and tries to make out with a stuffed wolf. You know, the normal things college students do when they go out into the woods. It is like they didn't have a care in the world. Not even the ones that go out into the creepy woods for sex.
Below the surface sits something more sinister than this drunken group knows. A control center of torture and hell sits off site to subject Thor and his buddies to a new experience of horror. Maybe they are on an island and everything is recording from Station 5? No? Isn't that where the smoke monster came from?
What's this? They've been filming you the entire time? Don't look into the camera, they might send someone to…
All because someone went and had sex in the woods everything turns to hell afterwards. The blood, monsters, traps and eerie science fiction elements come into play. The world around them begins to change as the unknown group starts to show their presence by throwing creatures at the unsuspecting youth. A switch is flipped and an almost reality show element turns on. What should they do? Should they run? Should they hide? Should they fight back? Nah, they'll just stand around in the center of a room and panic.
Wrapping it all up this seems to be heading in the direction more of a thriller than a horror movie. I think it works for it though. With the same tired horror ideas washing up, I think that thrillers have really filled the gap with intelligent, yet gruesome films. That way they make you think about how terrible it was after you watched it. Do I think this will end up being another cult classic like Evil Dead? No, but with the twist it presents, the trap scenario, and even the gadgetry makes me think it is worth a shot. For all the crap I've given it, there still seems to be a glimmer of promise to Cabin in the Woods.
Still not interested? Check out the trailer below.

Latest Excerpt: What I'd Expect if I Were Expecting
What I'd Expect If I Were Expecting is the pregnancy memoir I'm writing ahead of time since if I ever get pregnant and have kids I'll have no time to write. Periodically I read excerpts on The Adam Carolla Show. Here's the most recent one.
Yesterday I burped while watching Rizzoli and Isles so I called my doctor to make sure that was normal for a woman in my state. She, thank you very much, said it was perfectly normal and asked, again, that I please stop calling her on her emergency line. Speaking of emergencies, I can no longer fit into my medium size Juicy sweatpants and don't even get me started on my Seven for All Mankind Jeans. More like seven sizes too small jeans. Or seven levels of frustration jeans. Or the seven jeans you'd meet in hell jeans. Or seven habits of highly effective jeans, none of which are to fit, evidently, or seven jeans for seven brothers if the seven brothers are the seven dwarves. The only way I could wear them would be to buy another pair of sevens and wear one pair on each leg and walk around like conjoined twins, each of whom has one bad leg but still buys regular pants. At this rate I will have nothing to wear by my third or fourth trimester.
Upcoming chapters include:
Crapping myself while giving birth: How much are we talking and should I give a shit?
Placenta Pie and Other Recipes
"Watch me pull a baby out of your hooha" –The Curious Case of the Magician Obstetrician
Drug book excerpt
In addition to writing a faux pregnancy memoir, I'm also tackling an addiction memoir. Here is an excerpt. I'm hoping for a blurb from Dr. Drew.
The year was 1977. By day I was Susan, a mild-mannered good girl. By night I was Suze, a sensual party machine who loved to dance and was addicted to drugs. One night I couldn't reach my dealer so I hit the streets.
"Hey girly girly, you looking for party favors," asked a gangmember.
"No," I responded all cool like, "I'm looking for drugs."
A little while later I was in a cab headed uptown with a pocket full of the best friends a girl like me could have. It was all there, everything I craved: Cocaine, crack cocaine, heroin, ludes, bennies, acetominophin, PCP, space cakes from Amsterdam, pot brownies, pot cookies, marijuana, puff, spliff, smoke, hash, hashish, White Out for huffing, whippets, nutmeg, banana peels, Robitussin, Robitussin cold gels, speed, crystal meth, crank, MDMA and other designer drugs, ice, mushrooms, magic mushrooms and lysergic acid, commonly known as LSD.
The drugs kicked in as we were pulling out of Del Taco.
Potential titles for this tome include:
This Halfway House is Not a Home
Have We Met Before? [cover art is me looking in the mirror]
They Tried to Make Me Go to Prehab but I Said No No No
My Drug of Choice is More
People, Places, Things and Drugs
With Drugs Like These, Who Needs Friends?
If You Can't Stand the Heat Get Out of the Meth Lab
Are You There Drugs, It's Me Drugs?
Crush, Snort, Repeat
I, Klonopin
Another excerpt from my fake pregnancy memoir
Excerpt from What I'd Expect if I Were Expecting, Chapter 2: Mercury in Retrograde (and also in sushi)
Last night I was really looking forward to meeting the gals for some much needed gal time. That was before I knew they wanted to meet for sushi though. SUSHI?!?!?! Oh, I could just see it:
"And what will the obviously very pregnant lady have?"
"I'll have the spicy deformed baby roll with the cleft palate dipping sauce."
I don't think so! What's next, a raw cheese course followed by formaldehyde shots and thalidomide chasers? I didn't make a big deal of it though, I just nibbled on my edamame (unsalted, please, and keep it coming) and drank my sparkling water. I couldn't fault my single friends. It wasn't that long ago that I, too, was selfish and only lived for myself.
But when you're super pregnant, if you have friends who are willing to be seen in public with you, grab on to them and never let go! Table for six? More like table for 8 if you count my cankles! And seriously, why the weight gain? I mean, I know it's nature's way of keeping men away so you don't get pregnant when you're already pregnant and end up like my slutty friend Carol who had triplets, one of whom is Asian, but couldn't you just give me frizzy hair instead? Oh wait, looks like you already did! Trimester? More like try to do anything with this hair, LOL!!!!!!
Upcoming chapters include:
"Don't piss on my leg and tell me my water broke"
"What's a mucus plug and where's the outlet?"
"My ankles are too fat to kickbox with God"
What I'd Expect if I Were Expecting excerpt, Ch. 1
I've been reading excerpts of my faux pregnancy memoir, What I'd Expect if I Were Expecting on The Adam Carolla Show. The idea grew out of an on air discussion we were having about how the best time to write a memoir would be before the event you're recalling, because that's when you really have the time to knock out a book.
Due to the popularity of WIEIIWE, I'm now also working on my addiction/recovery memoir since there's that old adage in publishing that you have your whole life to write your first book and only a year or two to write your second. Frankly there's no way I can squeeze a lifetime of imaginary drug abuse into only a couple years.
A lot of people have asked if there's a place they can go to read these excerpts. The short answer at this point is No. The long answer is Noooooooooooooo. But I've decided to put a few of them on my blog. Here is the first one:
Excerpt from What I'd Expect if I Were Expecting, Chapter 1: Could I Be Pregnant?
…After months and months of not getting my period and being all fat, I began to wonder, could I be pregnant? It was the last thing I expected——me??? pregnant???– but the signs were all there. Unprotected sex some months before? Check. Morning sickness? Try morning, afternoon and evening sickness! Weird cravings? I'd eaten a pencil and two dry erase boards only moments before. My doctor pointing out the fetal heart rate on the fetal heart rate monitor? I made a mental note to pick up a pregnancy test on my way home from the bar…
Upcoming chapters include:
"What's Up With My Areolas?"
"I Hope They Serve Ice Chips In Hell"
"What Do You Mean I Can't Give Birth Underwater Surrounded By Dolphins?"

������������������������������������������������ A kiss leads to…
Kris sighed as she leaned against the nearest wall, frustrated and worn out. She had been searching for Melanie the entire lunch period, and had yet to find the blonde bookworm. She needed to talk to Melanie, she needed to see her. After the incident the morning before, Melanie has been nowhere in sight. She hadn't even showed up at Kris' house that morning.
Kris pushed herself off the wall and opted to check the library, for the fourth time that day. This was the only place that Kris knew Melanie enjoyed going to.
"Come to think of it… I know nothing about this girl. I only know that she likes to hang out in the library." Kris thought aloud as she began her short journey to the library. "I need to get to know her better…"
One again, her search was futile. After searching through the large, book-filled library, Kris came to the conclusion that her pretty companion was definitely not there.
She let out a frustrated sigh and headed towards the library doors. As she swung the door open, a face blurred her vision.
Kris stepped back quickly, startled, and blinked a few times before realizing who it was in front of her. "Anna Jameson. To what do I owe this honor?" She said with a devilish smirk.
"Well, well, isn't it Kris Sawyer? Wasn't expecting someone like you here." Anna snarled back, crossing her arms over her rather large chest.
"Yes Anna, I study too. Big surprise there, huh?" Kris replied, rolling her eyes.
Anna took a step forward and leaned her face down towards Kris, her eyes locked onto the shorter girl.
Kris stared back, unmoving, and quite frankly, uncaring. Anna, though the school's bully, and much taller and more muscular than herself, did not frighten Kris one bit.
"Don't use that smartass attitude with me. You act so high and mighty around here, you act like your shit don't stink. Well here's a news flash for ya. It does." Anna spat, her face lighting up with anger. "If I were you, I'd stop using that holier than thou attitude, or you'll get it."
Kris chuckled under her breath and smiled at the taller girl who was laying threats on her; subsequently angering the girl even more.
Before Kris could get a chance to say one of her famous smart ass remarks, she was forced up against the brick wall beside her with a loud smack. An arm was pressed tightly against Kris' chest, holding her in place against the wall.
All the air was forced out of Kris' lungs with this move, and the pressure being exerted onto her chest was almost unbearable. She knew that Anna was strong, but not this strong.
She coughed, and gasped for a breath, but her compressed lungs were unable to get enough air into her.
"Do I make myself clear?" The raven haired girl asked, forcing more of her weight onto Kris.
"What… Was that?" Kris managed to gasp out. She wasn't about to let her smart ass reputation be tarnished. She didn't care about the pain at this point. Anna may have won the fight, but Kris wasn't about to let her win the battle.
"You little bitch…" The taller girl snarled, "You'll be sorry that you ever crossed my path when I'm done with you…"
"STOP IT!" A soft feminine voice called out from down the hall. The voice sounded strained, as though it's never reached that decibel before. Or even close to that decibel, in fact. It was shaky, and mousey, regardless of how loud it actually was.
Kris turned her head towards the shout. "Mel..Melanie?!" She coughed, hardly able to say the name of the blonde girl that was running towards her, and the girl who was still holding her against the wall regardless of the small girl's intervention.
"What the fuck do you want, kid?" Anna spat at the girl.
"L..Let her go!" Melanie replied. Her face was drenched in sweat, and she was shaking profusely. It was obvious to Kris that Melanie had never stood up to anyone like this before. It made her heart swell, if only for a moment before she realized that she still couldn't breathe very well still.
Anna laughed at the girl's pathetic attempt at saving her hostage.
"You think that would stop me? You're cute, but it definitely won't help in this situation." Anna said, throwing a wink Melanie's way.
Melanie gulped and clenched her fists tightly, driving her fingernails into her palms. "I…I'll go get a teacher if you don't… So let her go… Now."
Anna raised an eyebrow at the small girl, unable to tell if she was bluffing or not. She eased up on the pressure she was exerting on Kris' chest, enabling her to catch her breath.
"You wouldn't…"
"Yes, I would. So let her go!" Melanie replied, her confidence growing by the second.
Anna scoffed and stepped back from Kris, causing her to slide down the wall onto the ground.
"You're lucky that this girl showed up, Kris. I'll be sure to finish this another time though. So watch yourself." Anna plainly said before turning around to walk away.
Melanie waited until the teller girl was out of sight before she ran over to Kris, who had just caught her breath and was smiling up at her.
"Thanks…" Kris started before getting cut off by the younger girl.
"It's okay. Really… I'm glad I could help." Melanie said, holding out a hand to Kris to help her up.
Kris nodded and accepted the help, pulling herself up with the aid of the small blonde.
"I was really in some trouble then." Kris said with a nervous chuckle. "I'm glad you showed up."
Melanie blushed softly and looked down at her feet. "Y-yeah…"
Kris grinned. She loved how this girl was so easily embarrassed. It was adorable.
The two stood in silence for a moment, unable to think of anything else to say to one another.
Kris scuffed her shoes against the floor, contemplating her next action, and it's possible consequences. She took in a deep breath, and mustered all the confidence she could.
"Hey Melanie…" She said, becoming slightly nervous. She was almost shocked at herself. She was usually so confident, so sure of herself. This girl… She always made Kris turn to jelly.
Melanie looked up at Kris and gave her a quizzical eyebrow raise. "Yes?" She asked.
Kris stared into Melanie's baby blues for what seemed like a lifetime before she strengthened her resolve and took a plunge.
Kris slowly leaned into Melanie's face, at the same time she lifted her hand to the smaller girl's chin and tilted her head up so that their lips met.
Melanie's body stiffened in reaction to Kris' touch, but soon relaxed into the gentle, warm kiss that was being laid on her. A shock of electricity bolted throughout her body, causing her to let out a small whimper. She felt herself melting into the kiss, to which she accommodated by closing her eyes and returning the kiss Kris was giving her.
She was enjoying every moment of this. She didn't want it to end, but before she knew it, Kris was pulling back from the gentle embrace, and their lips parted. Melanie's body remained frozen, lingering on the kiss from her female companion.
She had never kissed another girl before. She had never thought she would enjoy a kiss from another girl.�
Meanwhile, a ways down the hallway, a tall brunette stood as witness to the event that just occurred. With a scoff she turned quickly on her heels and quickly walked in the opposite direction of two girls.
"That little bitch…" She muttered angrily, clenching her fists. "How dare she try and steal away my Kris…"
Over the next few days Cassie and Kris seemed to be spending a lot more time together. Kris had become a bodyguard of sorts for Cassie, and kept her out of as much trouble as she could. (Minus the trouble she was getting her into herself, of course.)
Their relationship had grown from just a victim, and her hero, to the best of friends. They both realized how much they had in common. Cassie loved random violence in video games, gory horror movies, and sports just as much as Kris did. They quickly bonded over these similarities, and became inseparable. Until one of them had to go home, that is.
Even though they were closer than two old ladies in a knitting group that have known each other their whole lives, they have yet to have a sleepover. This fact didn't bother Kris much, of course, because she hadn't ever slept over at another girl's house in the first place. Also, the girl thought that it would be awkward… Considering the feelings that Kris had developed for Cassie in the short time that they knew one another. Every time Kris was with Cassie, she felt so alive; so free. She felt as though nothing could hurt her. This girl made Kris feel normal�for once in her life. She was so used to people straying away from her once they realize that she was in fact female, and not male like most would assume. But Cassie stayed. She was her friend.
Kris rolled over in her bed into a more comfortable position. She was fighting a reluctant battle with her insomnia. She couldn't stop thinking about where her relationship with Cassie might lead. She didn't know if she could handle being her friend, when she had such strong feelings for the other girl.
Kris squeezed her eyes shut and sighed. "Friend." She said aloud. "I'll always be just the friend…"
���������������� �����������������������������������******************
For once in her life, Melanie couldn't concentrate. She wasn't hearing a word of what her History teacher was saying. She heard nothing but her own heart pounding hard in her chest. She couldn't believe what had happened earlier that day. It seemed like only seconds ago that it happened, she could still taste Kris' lips on her own.
She gently brought her hand to her mouth and brushed her fingertips against her lips.
"She… Kissed me..." She thought, still unable to understand the day's earlier events.
"Um… That… Was for a thank you!" Kris stuttered, her face flushed a deep red from embarrassment.
Melanie's own face was an even darker red at that point. You could have cooked an egg on her face, from the heat it was giving off. She simply nodded, and turned her face away from the taller girl.
"Um… Well, I have to go. Class is starting. See you after school." Kris quickly said before turning around, and running off down the hall.
Melanie's blush returned to her at the recollection of the kiss, and it's aftermath. She looked down at her desk and let out a breath. Was she… Gay?
She had never thought of the possibility before, even though she never really showed any interest in boys. She always thought that was because she hadn't found the right boy yet. She thought that she was just going through an awkward stage. She was young still; only in the 9th grade. She was just starting high school. She shouldn't have to worry about dating, or her sexuality yet… Right?
Melanie suddenly became more confused than she had ever been in her life. She couldn't get her head around the possibility of her being a lesbian. It wasn't natural… It wasn't right. But what she felt when Kris kissed her… It had to be right.

Army Sgt. Justin Burdette, his wife, Beth, and 3-year-old son, Corey. BURDETTE FAMILY PHOTO
- Filed Under
At first, Beth Burdette had no idea what her husband meant when he said he had some bad news.
And though he has a high tolerance for pain, she could hear in his voice that he was suffering when he called to tell her that he had been critically injured.
That call came June 9.Only hours earlier, Army Sgt. Justin Burdette was on patrol in the mountains of Afghanistan when an explosion ripped through his lower legs, taking them both below the knee. ...

During the 1980's Mildenhall operated the SR-71 "Blackbird", a reconnaissance aircraft capable of a sustained cruising speed of Mach 3.
Air Fete began in 1976 as part of the celebration of America�s 200th birthday. It was held every year, usually on Memorial Day weekend, until 1999, when it was called off during Operation Allied Force, the NATO-led effort to push the Serbs from the Kosovo province.
It was held again in 2000 and 2001 with crowds reaching half a million people for the Saturday and Sunday flying and static aircraft shows.
In recent years the Air Fete has been cancelled due to operational requirements in support of the Global War on Terrorism, and a scheduled runway construction project in 2004.
Click here to visit the official website of Mildenhall.
The community Day event which was to have been held on Saturday 4th June 2005 for the local community has been cancelled!
The cause is sighted as 'cost', with the base having to make "millions" of $ savings to offset monies required for "The War Against Terror".

Avenida Universidad, 575,San Luis Potosi
No one has favorited this theater yet
Located in the city centre. The Cine Teatro Alameda was opened on 27th February 1941 with Marlene Dietrich in "Seven Sinners". Seating was originally provided for over 1,000 in orchestra and balcony levels. In recent years it was used for concerts, film festivals and for screening classic movies, it seems to have closed in 2012, but had reopened by 2014 offering a mix of art house movies and live performances. It seem only the orchestra seating area is currently being used.

I went thru a lot of in-ear headphones until I found the ones that best fit and sound best for me.
Currently using Klipsch IMAGE S4 In-Ear Enhanced Bass Noise-Isolating Headphones ($100+). They fit great and sound quality is excellent.
Had to return Bose MIE2i Mobile since they felt very uncomfortable and the sound quality was kind of poor coming from a Bose product.
Like some of the other guys on here, I go through headphones like underwear's. I'm too scared to get an expensive pair for the gym. I did however stop the cheap ones from falling out of my ears. I got some DeciBullz and molded them to fit my ear. I use them on cheap headphones and they fit comfortably in my ears.

Altap Salamander
|This article does not cite any references (sources). (December 2014)
|Stable release
|3.06 / February 27, 2015
|Operating system
|Microsoft Windows
|Orthodox file manager
Altap Salamander (formerly known as Servant Salamander) is a shareware orthodox file manager for Windows, originally inspired by Norton Commander. In contrast to several other file managers, it has a context aware user interface hiding complexity – for instance, the bottom function list changes on press of modifier keys, just showing the currently available hotkey function set.
Its development was started in 1996 as a hobby project by Petr Šolín (from Czech Republic) during his studies at university and released as freeware in 1997. It was originally written in Watcom C++, later in Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0. The last freeware version, 1.52, is still available for download from Altap website.
The first shareware version 2.0 was released in 2001 by a newly established company Altap. Salamander 2.0 included support for viewer and archiver plugins. During the development of 2.5 version the plugin architecture was expanded to support file system plugins to support FTP and other protocols.
The plugin SDK for 2.5 version allows plugin developers to create new viewer plugins (for file previews), archiver plugins (for browsing/unpacking/packing archives), file system plugins (for custom directory listing) and tools (like multi-rename or file compare). Custom column plugins known from Total Commander are not supported.

It's a little more complicated than just that. The trooper is also accused of mistreating her and then orchestrating an unjustified traffic stop of her husband.
It started with the trooper stopping the woman for having a headlight out. Soon, she was being asked to perform a field sobriety test. When she refused (she was wearing an evening gown and high heels while standing on gravel), she was taken in for breathalyzer test, which registered a reading of 0.0.

Looking at the news section there seems to have been only 4 news entries in the last 6 months!, go back 5 years and it was one a week, codecs were being updated and invented. Has the audio scene really slowed down that much? programs such as WMP and iTunes dumbed down innovation?
PS this is a personal enquiry and not related to dbpoweramp in any way.

Any news submissions not deemed worthy for validated news are moved to other appropriate forums. A link to the new location is usually left behind for about a month and then removed. By "deemed worthy" they need to meet the requirements defined in the topic that is pinned to the top of the forum and if it is software it must be a major, non-beta release. Personally, I typically only validate software that is either well-known, or has been previously discussed on this forum, indicating that there is interest. Software that is brand new to this forum is moved to the most appropriate forum, provided the person submitting appears to be clear of TOS #14.
Without going too far into defining policy, I welcome any and all feedback on what should be and what should not be in Validated News. Please realize that I am only a moderator and ultimately defer to those on the administration staff regarding such matters.

Thanks evryone! I wish I could.. the problem is she is the owner of the barn I board at and we don't want to leave there because ist is so super close to my house. The 4-h thing is that she has trained me perfectly in EQ and just recently started the roughness on Fudge. My mom dosent want to drop her because she has worked with us through all of the 4-h shows and it would be wrong to give another trainer the glory of me placing well. We have found an amazing dressage trainer who also does hunteres which we will be using come september!
I'm glad you are switching trainers though, and I wish you the best of luck. :)

Procter & Gamble (PG) has reportedly launched an informal search for a successor to CEO A.G. Lafley by evaluating current and former executives of the maker of Duracell batteries and Bounty paper towels.
According to Reuters, among the people being considered are Estee Lauder CEO Fabrizio Freda and Susan Arnold, who is currently an operating partner at private-equity giant Carlyle Group (CG).
Internal candidates include Melanie Healey, who is group president of North America, David Taylor, group president of global home care and Deborah Henretta, who leads the company's global beauty care division, Reuters reported. P&G is also considering Martin Riant, group president of global baby care, and Giovanni Ciserani, head of global fabric care.
Cincinnati-based P&G declined to comment, saying it does not comment on rumors or speculation.
Lafley served as CEO between 2000 and 2009 and then agreed to come out of retirement last year to replace Bob McDonald.
Lafley, 66, could stay on for some time to come and no formal CEO search process is currently under way, Reuters reported.
Shares of P&G ticked up 0.56% to $78.24 Friday morning, trimming their 2014 slump to 3.9%.

Here is my review of the Bose Sound Dock 10 and the Dre BeatBox. Both units are very impressive when it comes to sound quality as well as bang for your buck. The BeatBox cost $400 and the Bose Sound Dock 10 costs $600.
Both units take less than 5 minutes to set up and get running.
Check out the video for more info on the units and to hear them play.

No force on Earth (Gujarat) can destroy the FRANKENSTEIN's MONSTER delivered by Modi ON 27TH FEB.2002 NIGHT, . Both father and son will go together to the DESTINED DESTINATION. .
She doesn't have the resources that the SIT, aided and abetted by the Government of Gujarat, had and yet SIT took its own time to submit its report.
If the SIT was thoroughly debunked by the AC report(as we were lectured), why need more time? You should be asking for a speedy trial and verdict so that Modi can be jailed more quickly.
When SIT submitted their closure report to the court, Teesta shouted at the top of her voice that they would file a protest petition by August. It seems that she has not been able to concentrate on it because of having to defend Azad Maidan rioters, Illegal Bangladeshis in Assam and so on.

You might have installed a 3rd party application recently or just upgraded your BlackBerry OS and now your BlackBerry says something like:
Error 202: reset
What would you do? Most people run into the next phone shop or call their carrier support. Unfortunately, those support guys do not really know how to fix this issue – mostly. However, this is not as complicated as many might imagine. I did this for several devices already including a BlackBerry 7290, 8700v, Pearl, and others. This howto technically works with all BlackBerry models including the new BlackBerry Bold and Thunder. Here is what you need to do:
- Get the most recent BlackBerry OS as you would do when you upgrade your BlackBerry OS.
- Install this on your PC.
- Connect your BlackBerry to your PC.
- Make sure the BlackBerry Desktop Manager is NOT running.
- Open a command line by going to: Start » Run… » enter "cmd" » HIT ENTER
- Navigate to the Application Loader directory by entering: cd C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader\
- Enter and start: Loader.exe /nojvm
- The BlackBerry's Java Loader will pop up.
- Follow the instructions and install the new OS on your device.
The BlackBerry should automatically reboot at the end of the installation process and your device is back working.

Adam A500
Customer deliveries have begun!
Adam chose perhaps the premier piston engine available to power the A500, Continental's turbocharged, intercooled TSIO-550E. The engines put out 350 hp each to a critical altitude of 17,500 feet, and because max gross weight is only 6,300 pounds, power loading works out to a mere 8.4 pounds/hp. That's the lowest ratio of any corporate twin, and it translates to excellent climb performance—1,800 fpm at best-rate speed. Even if you settle on a cruise climb of 130 to 140 knots, you'll still see 1,500 fpm.
Modern aircraft engines hardly ever fail these days, but if one does on an A500, sea-level climb is 400 fpm, better than any of the corporate twins listed above. The combination of unaffected directional control and reasonable unimotor performance means a pilot need merely concentrate on cleaning up the airplane and hitting the proper Vyse.
Adam launched the A500 program six years ago when he contracted Burt Rutan to design a six-seat, push-pull twin, adaptable to both pistons and turbines. "I really liked Rutan's V-Jet, the airplane he built for Sam Williams," says Adam. "What I was asking him to do was slightly different, however—create a twin-boom, centerline-thrust piston airplane with good parts commonality to a jet. Just as with the V-Jet, though, Rutan outdid himself and came up with a design that was even better than I'd hoped."
Far from a brash risk-taker, Adam is a West Point graduate who made his fortune in the computer business, transitioned to a successful career as a broker with Goldman Sachs and set up shop for the piston A500 and jet A700 at Denver's Centennial Airport in 2000. The A500's first flight came in 2002, and the FAA granted a preliminary day/VFR type certificate in May 2005.
Before you dismiss day/VFR approval for a hard IFR airplane, consider that both the Gulfstream IV and V were first approved for day/VFR before they achieved full day/night VFR/IFR certification. Adam Aircraft expects to have full certification in early 2006.
Adam delivered the first production aircraft at NBAA to a Colorado Springs chiropractor, Mike Leahy, in early November of 2005. Leahy is a former USAF instructor and fighter pilot with 3,000 hours in T-37s, T-38s and F4s, so he knows a thing or three about high-performance airplanes.

Guild drama is a lot like falling in love. It's the most cliche thing in the world-- everyone's been through it before, usually more than once. But when it happens to you, it seems like there's nothing more important. When you're the one cursing out your guildleader on Vent for giving the loot to his friend instead of the person who rolled 100 on it (you), you feel like you're the only person this has ever happened to in this way.
And that's why I love writing Guildwatch, your weekly look at drama, downed, and recruiting news from around the realms. We can't cover everything, but we can absolutely cover everything you send to us-- tips go to email@example.com. Hit the link below to see who fell not in love, but out of their guild this week.
- I didn't get many cool kill shots, but there were two really good ones sent in by Twilight's Call over on Blackhand-- the Magtheridon kill is seen above. Since then, they've dropped the Lurker Below (grats!) and I'm told they're seeking Shamans (Resto and Elemental), a Hunter, and a Holy Pally.
- Here's another cool killshot from Knights of the Runes on Azjol-Nerub. Interesting effect. Screenshot by Youradhere, photoshopped by Kazariah, both Rogues. Isn't that interesting-- I wonder what the most artistic class in the game is.
- Midnight Brigade, formerly of Jadenar, transferred over to Lightninghoof to, we're told, "become the top raiding guild." Yeah because that's real easy to do. The guildleader did have some ideas on how to do it, though the rest of the server didn't really vibe.
- Sweet, sweet couples drama. Vicarious of Uldaman-A was rolling right along-- up until a woman named Magenta /gkicked someone during an argument, and it made people so angry that they /gquit in protest. Apparently the person /gkicked got invited back into the guild, and Magenta wasn't having none of that, so she took her husband with her and left the guild and the server. Then, the guild leader decided to skip out on the guild (with the guild bank, his alt, in tow), and it was default guild drama apocalypse from there-- core raider started skipping town left and right, and eventually the person placed in charge of the guild after the GL left, Galford, disbanded the whole thing, and people logged in to find themselves guildless. They're picking up the pieces-- apparently they're reformed as Alliance Underground, and are looking for another Alliance guild to merge with and run the post-Kara game. If you've got a guild on Uldaman-A, I'd take 'em-- at least you know they won't /gquit out and transfer servers on you, right?
- An "angry screed" from Blackwater Raiders. As our tipster says, "it's not the most dramatic, but hey, it's an RP server." On second thought, I have no idea what he means.
- The Wanderers on Uther-H have cleared Karazhan and killed HKM and Gruul. Void Reaver and Mag are on notice. Also, even though they're 80%-20% US/Aussie, they're having a guild meetup in Australia! Wild!
- Winchester, that 70 Paladin tank from Leftovers on Shattered Halls, who I got in an argument with a while back, emailed to say he has now solo tanked Attumen. Pretty impressive, I have to say. He says Ghostly Stewards are next-- "if all healers are overhealing," he tells me, "this might work."
- Natural Born Slayers and Reign in Blood (that's as in "rainin' blood," right?), both on EU Nordrassil, teamed up like a big superhero team to go into Karazhan. They dropped Midnight and Attumen, and gave both Moroes and Maiden a stern beating. And here's the kicker: no Warrior in the raid at all. So who tanked? Druid? Pally? (ugh) Or.. a Shaman? I'd like to see an Enhance Shaman main tanking an instance-- someone make a video and send it to me please, thanks in advance.
- Ambiguous Raiders on Khaz Modan has cleared Kara and made HKM eat floor. Gruul, you're on notice. Time to pick up that life insurance-- someone's got to look out for those Sons after you're gone.
- Dark Hand of Justice on Boulderfist dropped Gruul. Rock on! Get it? Rock? Shatter? No? They're also looking for some mature Shadow Priests, so if you are one, look them up.
- Faint Memory on Feathermoon-A is looking for more to tackle 25-man content. Currently Kara is three days a week, but they're aiming to make it two and to head to Gruul's on the last day. All classes welcome, but please have Vent, an open mind, and a thick skin.
- Knights and Weekends on Kirin Tor-A (winner of this week's Best Guild Name award) calls themselves the guild "for the time-constrained serious gamer." They're looking for Shamans, Paladins, Priests, and Warlocks-- srsly!
- Sonic Death Monkey on Eitrigg-H is looking for Holy Priests and Paladins. They're working on SSC and TK, and they ask that you have T4 or equivalent armor already please.
- Ogg Gulnath Tago on Vek'nilash is 2/4 in TK and 5/6 in SSC, and they're seeking a Resto and Elemental Shaman, a Shadow Priest, a Resto Druid, and a Holy Paladin. Plus, you know they're good people, because they've got our stories on their main page.
- House of Thunder on Burning Legion-A is looking for level 70s of all classes and raiding experience to fill out their Karazhan teams. They are fun, and family oriented.
- Defenders of Zen on Whisperwind-A says they're recruiting all classes to get "back into KZ and beyond." Which brings up an interesting question: why did they leave in the first place?
