Lakshminivasa Nerusu of Novi is suspected of killing his family in 2008 and fleeing to India.
In 2008, Novi police say, Lakshminivasa Nerusu did the unthinkable. He slit his wifes throat, then waited for his son and daughter to come home from school and killed them in the same manner.
On Thursday a year after being brought back from his native India where he had fled and gone into hiding the 46-year-old computer programmer will go to trial in Oakland County Circuit Court in the killings in the familys Novi town house.
The defense attorney says he plans to argue that Nerusu was insane the morning of Oct. 13, 2008, when he killed his wife, Jayalakshmi, 37.
Investigators say he then went to a drugstore, bought bandages to treat his own injuries, then laid in wait for his daughter, Tejasvi, 14, and his son, Siva Kumar, 12, to arrive home from school. He then killed them. Their bodies were found two weeks later when worried family members alerted police.
Within hours of the killings, Nerusu fled Michigan and flew to India, where he remained free until his arrest in February 2013 near Hyderabad, in southern India. He waived extradition in May 2013 and has since been in the Oakland County Jail, held without bond.
Psychiatrists who have examined Nerusu say he is competent to stand trial and was not insane at the time of the killings. But his defense attorney, Lawrence Kaluzny, said insanity is the only explanation.
When I first met him at the jail, he said, Look, I loved my kids, I had to be crazy to kill my kids, Kaluzny said in a phone interview last week.
Oakland County Chief Assistant Prosecutor Paul Walton said its time for Nerusu to face justice.
We will extradite all over the world for murder, and we went to India to get him back, Walton said. And he noted that investigators think Nerusu waited for his children to arrive. Thats what we call premeditation.
The trial is before Judge Nanci Grant and is expected to last a week. Nerusu is charged with three counts of first-degree murder and faces life in prison if convicted.

Hi, remember me?
I used to blog here, then I had some severe camera problems and that put an end to my blogging for a while. But happily I have tip-toed back into my blog, hopefully getting things back up to speed!
So, I'll be starting a little slowly, trying to remember how to blog!
So the 52MMMC, blogging about that fell by the wayside, but I did actually keep it up in one way or another, so here we have
Week 7 - Plum Butter Tarts and Homemade Blackberry and Apple Jam Tarts
I would say about half of my 'makes' have been food based, and the other half craft based, although I'm not quite sure what other options I had - thats all I'm good at!!
Week 8 - Homemade Apple Tart.
a la Nigella Lawson, this is from her Nigella Express cookbook, only it should be a rectangle shape!
It was lovely, despite its messy appearance!
So theres my comeback - hopefully I'll get back into the swing of things and I have lots to show, lots of crafty orders, Christmas ideas, thrifty finds and more.
See you soon

The junk food aisle looked a little different, lit by the light of a single cellphone.
Brandon Mull, of Seven Valleys, held a pack of Little Debbies in his left hand, and with his right navigated the aisles of Wetzel's Market in Glen Rock, a lone circle of light among the Cosmic Brownies and Pecan Spinwheels.
"I wanted a snack," he explained, with the hint of a grin.
Rain drenched the area as storms rolled in Monday, and across much of southern York County the lowest common denominator was the need to find high ground.
In Glen Rock, that meant Wetzel's Market on Route 216.
Mull stopped on his way home from work, not sure the store would be open as Hurricane Sandy lashed the East Coast. Low-lying areas, like Glen Rock, were taking a beating by Monday afternoon.
The store lost power around lunchtime, according to manager Ben Wetzel. But it remained open, he said, powered by a generator and lit by a bare bulb, glimmering over the express aisle.
"We wanted to do whatever we could," Wetzel said.
Late in the afternoon, there were two employees camped under that bulb above the empty battery rack and another guiding customers through darkened aisles with a hand-held flashlight.
For Jon Page and grandson Elijah Miller, it was a break after being cooped up.
"You can't play Legos all day," said 8-year-old Elijah.
But in downtown Glen Rock, the scene was more serious.
"We will have to evacuate," said Assistant Fire Chief Mike Naylor. "It's not if, but when."
And as the storm intensified into Monday evening - as the south branch of the Conewago Creek swelled up its banks behind the fire station - the problem pressed closer. By dusk, crews had set up two emergency stations, one on either side of the rushing creek.
Monday night brought at least one water rescue. A woman fell into that churning water but was pulled out unharmed, said John Abbott, the borough's emergency management coordinator.
Crews remained on standby Monday night to evacuate Glen Rock, if another few inches of water fell.
A few miles up Route 616, much of downtown Seven Valleys already was under water.
Shirley Brenneman stepped out of her home with a black jacket held above her head. In front of her, a river flowed down Main Street.
"It's all gone," she said, water wetting her gray hair and glasses.
Brenneman explained she'd recently marked off a garden behind her home. The stakes were ripped out and carried away, she said, the driveway well under water.
Still, the flood waters weren't yet in the basement, Brenneman said. The house was still dry.
"I just thank God," she said. "I still think it could be worse."

Bucs @ Falcons
The Bucs will once again be without starting offensive linemen Jeff Faine (quad) and Jeremy Trueblood (knee). Also missing is fullback Earnest Graham, which is noteworthy because his lead-blocking abilities fit perfectly in what has become a strict power run approach for this offense. Wideout Sammie Stroughter did not practice all week due to a foot injury. Thus, rookie Arrelious Benn has a chance to start carving out a true niche in this offense (Benn caught a 53-yard touchdown pass last week, but that's basically been the extent of his contributions).
The Falcons likely will not have OLB Sean Weatherspoon; the first-round rookie has been out since Week 5 with a knee injury. Fullback Ovie Mughelli is questionable with a hamstring. That's crucial because Atlanta's best approach against this Tampa Bay D is to pound them between the tackles on the ground.
Saints @ Panthers
Does Drew Brees have a fractured knee and torn meniscus or not? The Saints are saying no – in fact, Brees is not even listed on the injury report. Running backs Reggie Bush and Pierre Thomas are both still out (Bush is technically listed as doubtful this week). Rookie CB Patrick Robinson is out with an ankle, though the Panthers do not have the aerial firepower to take advantage anyway. Besides, both Saints starting corners, Tracy Porter and Jabari Greer, who missed the Steeler game, are probable after practicing all week.
Carolina's 28th-ranked rushing attack will once again be missing RT Jeff Otah (knee) and RB DeAngelo Williams (foot).
Giants @ Seahawks
No Shaun O'Hara for New York. Thus, Adam Koets, who has decent movement skills but lacks O'Hara's nastiness and veteran shrewdness at the second level in the run game, will be the fulcrum of the offensive line. The Giants are coming off a bye, which explains why basically everyone else (save for OT Will Beatty and FB Madison Hedgecock) is healthy.
The Seahawks are starting Charlie Whitehurst in place of injured Matt Hasselbeck (concussion). Rookie receiver Golden Tate (ankle) is also out for Seattle. And, likely, so is rookie LT Russell Okung (ankle). Because Tyler Polumbus is questionable with a knee injury – and, frankly, because he does not begin to have quick enough feet to handle Osi Umenyiora – the Seahawks will likely turn to veteran Chester Pitts.

Participating students will experience on-site study in such places as Venice, Paestum, Capri, Syracuse, Palermo, Ostia, Florence, and of course Rome. A full day in Pompeii and Herculaneum offers a unique learning experience among the ruins of towns destroyed by Mount Vesuvius' devastating volcanic eruption of AD 79. In Paestum, we examine the remains of several temples, students see first-hand evidence of the Greek presence in southern Italy. Then we cross from Reggio, Calabria, into Sicily, where we study the fascinating world of Magna Graecia, from Syracuse to Agrigento, Selinunte, and Palermo. The sights, sounds, monuments, and places you visit when you are in Italy become the classroom. In this academic program, you will take notes on site, observe actual excavations, and visit places usually closed to the general public.
And what about fun? While we do have a fine study itinerary, free time is also scheduled in for touring, shopping, and fun in the Italian sun.
All accommodations in Italy are superb. The Hotel Sant' Anna in Rome, just a short walk from St. Peter's Basilica, is a beautifully renovated building. It offers an extremely convenient location for travel within the city. In Paestum and Palermo, the hotels are located right on the beach, affording afternoon and evening dips in the Mediterranean.

Pistorius bail restrictions appealed
PRETORIA, South Africa (AP)
Lawyers for Oscar Pistorius appealed against some of his bail restrictions Thursday, saying the Olympic athlete might eventually need to return to track competition to earn money.
Pistorius' lawyers say the double-amputee runner, who is charged with murder in the shooting death of his girlfriend on Feb. 14, is being treated as a flight risk by his bail restrictions even though a magistrate ruled last month that he was not when he released Pistorius on 1 million rand ($108,000) bail.
- Family: Pistorius 'not suicidal'
- Pistorius: I thought GF was intruder
- Pistorius seeks to resume training
- Pistorius' GF cremated at ceremony
- Pistorius hears murder charge in court
- Report: Bloody bombshell in case
- Gallery: Scene at the courtroom
- Couch: From thriller to killer?
- Steenkamp a model, law school grad
Lawyer Barry Roux said that Pistorius' current bail restrictions amounted to ''house arrest.'' Prosecutors say they oppose any relaxing of Pistorius' bail restrictions.
Roux said that Pistorius has no desire to return to track now, but ''this might and this will change.'' He said Pistorius should be allowed to travel for international meets under ''controlled'' circumstances, where he would require advanced permission from police and would have to give details of his travel schedule before he left South Africa.
Pistorius was not present in court Thursday.
Roux also argued against the ruling that Pistorius is not allowed to return to his home in a gated community in the eastern suburbs of Pretoria, where he shot Reeva Steenkamp dead in the early hours of Valentine's Day.
The bail ruling prevented him from returning to his home or speaking to residents, but his lawyers say he must be allowed to consult with residents in order to prepare his defense against the murder charge against him.
Pistorius says he killed Steenkamp accidentally when he fired shots through a door in his bathroom in the pre-dawn hours, fearing there was an intruder in his house. Prosecutors say he shot the model and reality TV star intentionally after they argued, and they have charged him with premeditated murder.
Pistorius was not required to attend his appeal hearing and there were also none of his family members present at North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria.
The judge said he would rule on Pistorius' appeal later Thursday.
Pistorius' bail appeal was being heard by the judge at the high court a day after the athlete's older brother, Carl Pistorius, went on trial for culpable homicide for the death of a woman motorcyclist in a 2008 road accident. Carl Pistorius pleaded not guilty Wednesday to the main charge of culpable homicide and not guilty to two alternative charges relating to driving recklessly and inconsiderately.

Usher Drops Second Teaser of 'Good Kisser': Watch
There are only three days until Usher drops his brand new single, "Good Kisser," and he's teasing fans with another snippet.
On Friday, he released a 20-second video of himself dancing to the fun track and revealed more of its lyrics: "I been around the world / I kissed a lot of girls / So I'm guessing that it's true / Make me holla / And I'd bet a million dollars / that don't nobody kiss it like you."
On Wednesday, Usher dropped the first listen at "Good Kisser," which was 40 seconds of the track's whistle loop as he danced in a dimly-lit room (watch below).
"Good Kisser" officially drops on May 5!


text: Architect Matteo Pericoli is Italian by birth, New Yorker by choice, and the cover "ill"ustrator for Beastie Boys album To The 5 Boroughs. For those living in New York, it probably comes as no surprise to find out here that Pericoli's depiction of Manhattan's skyscrapers was not originally contracted nor intended to be the cover art for the Beastie Boys long awaited release. In fact, the Matteo Pericoli's work was originally published by Random House in October 2001 under the title "New York Unfurled." The original sketches of "New York Unfurled" totaled thirty-seven feet in length when completely unfurled, which explains why multiple folds were required for the To the 5 Boroughs booklet. In an article written by Elisabetta Povoledo, for the Italy Daily newspaper (March 21, 2002), it was stated that as many as twenty bridges and nearly sixteen-hundred buildings were drawn over the three and a half years which it took Pericoli to complete the project. Following the sales success of "New York Unfurled," Pericoli began working on a new skyline piece drawn from inside of New York's Central Park, "Manhattan Within." With the seemingly endless flow of Beastie Boys bootlegs showing up on eBay, don't be surprised if you see this Pericoli drawing pop up on an unlicensed European 12″. Matteo Pericoli was born in Milan, where he graduated from the Polytechnic School of Architecture. He moved to New York in 1995, where he has worked as an architect, illustrator, author, journalist, and teacher. From 1997 to 2000 he worked at the architectural firm Richard Meier & Partners as the project architect for the Jubilee Church in Rome. His drawings have been published in various newspapers and magazines, both in the US and in Europe—including The New York Times, The New Yorker, Conde' Nast Traveler, Travel & Leisure, Vanity Fair, Il Corriere della Sera, and La Stampa, among others. He is a regular contributor of La Stampa, Gardenia, and of Bell'Italia where his monthly column Finestra sull'Italia appears. He has written for the Italian newspapers L'Unità and La Stampa.

I sometimes am curious about the attendance too, but I really wonder what is a lot of Devils fans obsession with the attendance figures. Who cares?
I really do think a good part of it is a lot of fans insecurity after hearing Rags and Flyers fans making fun of us for it. I really don't care all that much.
For me personally, it's about the atmosphere at the games and the energy that a good crowd creates for the players. It's a lot more fun as a fan to witness a packed building. It's been quite depressing at The Rock this year. How can you not want a loud, sold out crowd, cheering on your team? Don't you hear the players comments in anticipation to play In Montreal, Detroit, or Chicago for example? They go out of their way to reference the energy in those buildings. You have to wonder what our players think when they play in front of an empty building. We see players leaving during Free Agency too often, how much of a factor is the atmosphere of the building? It's something to consider. Surely some fans play into the insecurities created by Rags and Flyers fans, but I think most of us just want the best for our team and a loud, sold out crowd never hurts the on-ice product.

ROUND MOUNTAIN (Blanco County). Round Mountain is two miles northwest of the Round Mountain community in northern Blanco County (at 30°27' N, 98°22' W). The elevation of its summit is 1,595 feet above sea level. Round Mountain lies in an area of the Edwards Plateau characterized by shallow stony, clayey soils and level to gently rolling uplands and ridgetops. Steep slopes and limestone benches give a stairstep appearance to the landscape. Vegetation consists primarily of grasses and open stands of live oak and Ashe juniper.

AADL Talks To Josie Parker
In June, Ann Arbor District Library director, Josie Parker, attended the second UNESCO World Forum on Culture and Cultural Industries, whose "Focus 2011" was "The Book Tomorrow: The Future of the Written Word". In our conversation, Josie discusses what she brought back from her experience in this international arena, as well as her views - and those of fellow librarians, publishers, and authors around the world - on the future of digital publishing.
Thank you, Josie, for your report! And for seeing the Big Picture importance of this issue, beyond one community, or country, even. I'm an author and have been following the digital publishing revolution for a few years, but learned a few things here. As you point out, the global perspective is less well reported in the United States. Librarians and interested patrons might be interested in this free webinar on the topic tomorrow, by Digital Book World: https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/625482328?et_mid=526869&rid=26912517
* How libraries can act as a "low risk" discovery channel (digital and otherwise)
* What publishers can do to best utilize their library partners to build buzz for their titles
* How to optimize your metadata and ebook files for the library market
* What libraries do in terms of educating people on how to "read digitally."
* What are librarians doing to explain the often convoluted process of downloading and reading ebooks to people less familiar with devices?
(I have nothing to do with talk—just spreading the word. I think libraries are crucial in bridging the digital divide, which continues to widen.)
I appreciate your lending your point of view to the discussion about ebooks and digital publishing especially since the announcement yesterday by Penguin that it is not going to include its titles in Amazon's Kindle lending program and has asked Overdrive to disable the "Get for Kindle" functionality for all Penguin ebooks. Overdirve is the vendor used by most public libraries to provide ebooks to patrons.
Authors and publishers are struggling to come to terms, literally and figuratively, with the market forces brought to bear through digital publishing. Libraries are in many respects on the sidelines watching to see what happens. I agree with you that libraries are crucial in bridging the digital divide, but we have always managed to flex with whatever changes technology brings. I am confident that ultimately the general public will have access to ebooks through public libraries although the purchasing model will be very different from that which we are accustomed to today.

Road crews keep busy with South Hills work
Road crews are keeping busy in the South Hills with three projects starting Monday and a fourth ongoing in Pleasant Hills.
Crews from Carmen Paliotta Contracting Inc. of South Park Township are into a second year of work on a Curry Hollow Road bridge.
PennDOT District 11 spokesman Steve Cowan said the $5.6 million project is focused on replacing an existing three-span encased I-beam bridge over railroad tracks west of Arbor Lane with a single-span adjacent box beam structure.
The bridge carries Curry Hollow between a Sheetz convenience store and Jefferson Memorial Cemetery, alongside a multi-use development that includes businesses and Magisterial District Judge Pat A. Capolupo's courthouse.
The work limits traffic to one lane on that roadway, also known as state Route 2040, between the Route 51 Cloverleaf and Keeport Drive.
Restrictions are in place through mid-November.
Cowan said the work also includes widening the existing roadway to add a turning lane, traffic signals, resurfacing and other improvements on Curry Hollow between Route 51 and Brownsville Road.
Other projects are under way this week, weather permitting, affecting Route 51 and Brownsville Road in several South Hills communities:
• A $4.4 million improvement means restrictions through mid-July on state Route 837 from St. Clair Street in Clairton to Burnett Street in West Elizabeth. Gulisek Construction LLC of Mt. Pleasant is prime contractor for that PennDOT job which also includes longterm closures on the northbound Route 837 on-ramp to southbound Route 51 and the southbound Route 51 off-ramp to northbound Route 837 at the Elizabeth Bridge.
• New restrictions have gone up as part of an $8.6 million Allegheny County Public Works project covering Brownsville, Broughton and Curry Hollow roads in Pleasant Hills, Baldwin and South Park. Frank J. Zottola Construction Inc. of Valencia is prime contractor for work restricting traffic on Brownsville to one alternating lane between Willard Drive and Curry Hollow Road weekdays between 7 a.m. and 8 p.m. Overall work there is slated to conclude this fall.
• Traffic signal safety improvements have begun on Route 51 in Pleasant Hills, Jefferson Hills and Elizabeth Township. Bronder Technical Services will attach retroreflective tape to existing signal backplates, in work slated from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. through May 24 at Route 51 junctures with Weigles Hill Road in Elizabeth Township, Lewis Run Road in Pleasant Hills and Peters Creek, Old Clairton and Coal Valley roads and Jefferson Boulevard in Jefferson Hills.

Ornamental Features:
Mrs. Tingley Camellia features showy salmon round flowers with pink overtones at the ends of the branches from late winter to early spring. It has dark green foliage throughout the season. The glossy pointy leaves do not develop any appreciable fall color. The fruit is not ornamentally significant. The bark is not particularly outstanding.
Landscape Attributes:
Mrs. Tingley Camellia is a multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with an upright spreading habit of growth. Its average texture blends into the landscape, but can be balanced by one or two finer or coarser trees or shrubs for an effective composition.
This is a relatively low maintenance shrub, and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers. It has no significant negative characteristics.
Mrs. Tingley Camellia is recommended for the following landscape applications;
- General Garden Use
- Accent
- Mass Planting
- Hedges/Screening
- Container Planting
Plant Characteristics:
Mrs. Tingley Camellia will grow to be about 12 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 12 feet. It has a low canopy with a typical clearance of 1 feet from the ground, and is suitable for planting under power lines. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 40 years or more.
This shrub does best in partial shade to shade. It requires an evenly moist well-drained soil for optimal growth, but will die in standing water. It is particular about its soil conditions, with a strong preference for rich, acidic soils. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution, and will benefit from being planted in a relatively sheltered location. Consider applying a thick mulch around the root zone in both summer and winter to conserve soil moisture and protect it in exposed locations or colder zones.
This is a selected variety of a species not originally from North America.

The fields of theology and science may very well be on the brink of the biggest…. and most important…. argument in the history of mankind.
French researcher and renowned Shroud of Turin experts Robert Mottern and William Dinegar announced on November 24th that replicable DNA strands had, in fact, been retrieved from the Shroud, the cloth believed to have covered Jesus Christ after his Crucifixion. It is believed by many in the religious community that his image was imprinted on the Shroud of Turin at the moment of Jesus Christ's resurrection.
The scientific community is obviously in a frenzy at the prospect of cloning the alleged messiah. The Catholic church is already making very vocal and public outcry at the notion, with one Cardinal even proclaiming that the scientific work being attempted is the work of the devil.
An order has already been filed by the Church with the Italian authorities to try and reclaim the extracted DNA, but the consensus at this point is that the damage has already been done; with no way to effectively verify the actual amount of DNA extracted, the church has no way of knowing how much there is to account for.
A press conference has been scheduled by Dr. Robert Mottern and Dr. William Dinegar on the 29th of November in Switzerland.

Areas of Interest
Our laboratory is interested in the role of protein-protein interaction domains in cell biologic processes. We presently study the role of these interaction domains in cell signaling and polarity.
Cell polarity represents a process that allows a cell to have a different protein composition at different membrane surfaces. The ability to develop cell polarity is crucial for many cellular processes including neuronal transmission, cell fate determination, cell migration and epithelial cell function. In epithelia, apical and basolateral surfaces exist that contain different protein components. These surfaces are separated by a seal called the tight junction that separates these two membrane domains. We have been studying a protein called Pals1 (Protein Associated with Lin Seven-1) that localizes to the tight junction of epithelial cells. Pals1 contains numerous protein-protein interaction domains and we have identified a unique domain in Pals1 called the L27 domain that allows Pals1 to target to tight junctions. One of the L27 domains of Pals1 mediates its interaction with another tight junction protein known as Patj (Pals1 Associated Tight Junction Protein). Pals1 also contains a PDZ domain that allows it to interact with the carboxy-terminus of a transmembrane protein called Crumbs. We have found that this protein complex plays a pivotal role in cell polarity and tight junction formation. While our work has demonstrated that this Pals1 complex is important for tight junction assembly and cell polarity, the signaling pathway that allows this complex to control tight junction assembly and cell polarity is unclear. However it has been known that a complex of proteins including a small G protein Cdc42, two PDZ domain proteins, Par3 and Par6 as well as Protein Kinase C isosymes, PKC-zeta and PKC-lambda also exist at the tight junction. We have recently demonstrated that Pals1 can also interact with Par6 connecting these two protein complexes in cells. This suggests that Pals1 is at the center of a signaling complex that can control the formation of tight junctions and direct cell polarity. Further research is focusing on the pathways activated by these proteins that promote tight junction assembly and control the trafficking of proteins to apical versus basolateral surfaces

We won 11 games of beer pong, and then I spent a half hour trying to get into the top bunk. Then i realized it was a cabinet in the bathroom
Just stared at a tree for a solid 5 minutes because I thought a German Shepard was perched on a limb.
crossed #23 off the Slucket List!
He's my BOYFRIEND but he won't sext me. I'll be like, "tell me how you want to fuck me", and he's like, "I love how we can talk about our feelings". FUCK
There is NOTHING better than watching a child being chased by an ostrich.
You told me I was special while we were having sex and I asked why.
so after six weeks of dating she admitted shes bi and asked if it would freak me out if we brought another girl into the bedroom. i said no in this hesitant voice and she said 'if you let me dont worry ill make it up to you'
your boyfriend is drunk and yelling to the bar that he loves his cats
Classy. Drunk on alcoholic "energy drink" at work before 8 am on a Tuesday. Between that and hanging out in bars with no pants on, your life is beginning to sound like a Bukowski novel.
Mental note: adding peach schnapps to a gin and tonic does not "water it down."
there's no such thing as luck on your birthday, only drunken invincibility, make it happen
you woke up and yelled "the tv is moving" and fell on the floor and passed back out
I just want you to know that if I ever had to fight man eating flowers or flying turtles to save my friends they'd be fucked. No one's worth all that bullshit. PS I really need to stop playing Wii while drunk.
got hammered last night, woke up this morning to 38 texts that varied from "you fucking asshole" to "i can be there in 10 minutes"
Are they still out there making out on the couch? How can we get them to leave?
giving yourself 2 days to recover i see
I'll need it. Largely because i'm going to be stumbling through fancy restaurants with a bottle of whiskey insulting couples all night.
so when I got there he was dressed as jesus in a recliner drinking whiskey out of the bottle watching spanish porn. Then kept shouting dont judge me or ill judge you. we didn't even go to a halloween party.
She said "Lay the fuck down and ill show you how its done. Ill get us both off." I did. And she did. Best words ever said before sex.
Id like to know where dora the explorers parents are when she goes on all these crazy ass adventures
you refused to leave the drive-thru at mcdonalds until the cashier took a jello shot
My mom asked me if I was being satisfied, sexually. And then discussed positioning.
I am in the checkout line at the dollar store and there is a guy in front of me holding a pregnancy test, a chocolate bar, and fake roses. Champion.
please remember that your boobs are bigger than your sisters. when you borrow her shirts they stretch and then shes left flapping in the breeze. dont borrow her clothes anymore. love dad.
I think I left a blow job at your house. Can I come down and get it?
Renamed my iPod as 'the titantic' so when I plug it in it's says 'the titantic is syncing.'
Some girl in the stall next to me just yelled "fuck yes i started my period!" she came out of the stall and we high fived. who am i to judge? i do that every month.
there r dinosaurs outside my house i hear them
you started crying because you didn't get to wear your rainboots this week so i turned on the shower and let you jump around in it
you drank 3/4s of your half gallon of vodka, made a fort out of the kitchen table, and actaually had sex in in it.
You're the 8th person from last night to text me this morning and ask if I'm ok.
i didnt mean to paint the dog... it just kinda happened
Just wanted to make sure that my favorite hot mess is still alive. I dont need words, just a response of any sort. K hope youre living
Umm ok I'm kinda freaked out right now bc the chick that lives next door is either having tantric sex or slowly suffocating her dog to death.
I think I could pass a breathalyzer. But with like a C.
Sorry about all the noise last night. We were trying to break bottles by kicking soccer balls at them. If it's any consolation, there's shattered glass and blood all over my kitchen.
Omg. In the pub, there's a guy shouting at the olympic channel 'yeah! Kill that motherfucker!' we're watching figure skating.

Chivas continues "business as usual"
Within the Red-and-White organization, there is an urgency to keep earning points, but at the same time, there is much optimism. The possibilities to earn a berth in this year's MLS Cup Playoffs, although tough, remain intact. Head Coach Robin Fraser has expressed such optimism in various interviews stating, "We need to start adding points. In the last three games, we've been dangerous, shooting at goal, the opposite of what we've had during the season. Unfortunately, we've made some defensive mistakes in decisive moments of the game, we haven't scored when we had the chance and when we've given the other team opportunities, they've known to take advantage of it."

How to Make Yourself Look Pretty
You don't need to be a supermodel or famous actress to look pretty; anyone can do it. There is no exact formula for looking pretty, but there are some steps you can take that can definitely help. Read on to find out what these are.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Take some lipgloss or lip tint (not lipstick). Lipgloss shows and makes your lips plumper and much nicer. When you apply the lipgloss make sure to cover all of your lips with your lipgloss. NOTE: Don't put too much lipgloss on, only 2 or 3 layers.
2Take some black, light blue, or purple eyeshadow and apply it. Make sure you don't touch your eyeshadow with your eyebrow otherwise you will look like a fool! When you put on the eye shadow make sure to cover the side of your eyes with a little bit of eyeshadow.
3Put on very little eyeliner because if it is too dark it would make your eyes look really big. And make sure not to push too hard on your eyes and only use it when you know how.
4Take some blush. If you have very white skin put on light blush, if you have tan skin, use purple-bronze blush and if you are very dark, put on dark blush.
5Make sure your hair is brushed and has no knots because if you have knots your hair will be messy.
6Don't forget the mascara! Essential if your eyelashes are really pale. You could use a brown for a more natural look, or just go for a black. It makes your lashes longer fuller darker making your eyes pop!
7Condition your hair well so that it's shiny and healthy.
8If you have problem areas on your skin use concealer or other makeup to try to cover it up. But also make sure you take good care of your skin to avoid pimples, etc.
9Brush your teeth and floss! Use whitener if you really want to have a beautiful smile.
Give us 3 minutes of knowledge!
- Don't make your makeup look trashy, or else you'll look like you're trying too hard. Go more natural if that's what you're comfortable with.
- Keeping yourself fit (healthy eating, exercising) will help.
- Hygiene!
- Have a good sense of style. Don't be afraid to not wear what everyone else is (reasonable) you could be a trendsetter. But having a good sense of clothing helps people realize your beauty.
- Growing your hair long is considered pretty as long as its healthy, but short hair is cute too.
- You could get plastic surgery if you feel it is completely necessary. However, it is not recommended because everyone is beautiful in their natural body.
- Braid your hair if it's long! It looks very cute and stylish! French braids in particular!
- Be yourself and don't let anyone else tried to make you different or be a fool of u. You don't need to be pretty to have people to like u and acting fake or not yourself is worse.Go natural be you .You is great. If you need to touch ur self up than do it just always remember to be yourself.
- Don't change yourself drastically, if you really have to go through a lot, it's not worth it. And everyone is pretty, some just haven't found a hairstyle that brings out those big brown eyes. Or that color that looks good on your skin tone, etc. so never give up on yourself! Have fun!

WARWICK ŌĆō It was a tough start to the week for the Narragansett boys soccer team as it dropped their second straight game when they travelled north to face Toll Gate Monday afternoon at Goff Field.
Early mistakes proved costly for the Mariners, putting them in a hole from which they could not recover as Toll Gate went on to a 3-1 victory.
HOPKINTON ŌĆō IŌĆÖd spent my childhood hearing my grandfather talk about him. Now, his name regularly falls from my brotherŌĆÖs lips. All I personally knew of Sonny Zampini was that he was in the scrapyard business and that probably everyone in town had called on him when they needed cars hauled away. Recently, upon discovering that he lives on the site of an old mill, I thought I might visit him and do a story. It didnŌĆÖt take long however, for me to realize that the story wasnŌĆÖt about a structure. It was about a man.
ALBANY, N.Y. ŌĆö If Rhode Island was going to snap its 15-game losing streak Saturday night against Albany, the Rams were going to have to take some chances. Chances like the one coach Joe Trainer took in overtime.
With the Rams clinging to a six-point lead in the extra session following a Justin Semmes touchdown and a missed extra point, Albany faced a third-and-8 at the URI 23. Instead of sitting back and allowing Albany quarterback Will Flacchi to survey the field, the Rams blitzed their linebackers and whipped Doug Johnson.
NARRAGANSETT- The town of Narragansett will be welcoming both a new resident and new town manager in October.
After a long interview process, the Narragansett Town Council unanimously appointed Pamela Nolan to the position on Sept. 3.
Nolan has more than 20 years of experience working as town administrator and town manager. Her past experiences include serving as the town administrator for the town of Truro, Mass., and as the town manager for the town of Plymouth, Mass.
NARRAGANSETT ŌĆō A bomb scare closed Salt Pond Plaza on Point Judith Road briefly Monday.
At 4 p.m. the Narragansett Fire Department responded to Game Stop for a report of a suspicious package left outside the store.
Capt. Joseph Conroy of the Narragansett Fire Department said a suitcase was left unattended on the sidewalk for an unknown period of time.
Emergency officials established a safety perimeter of 300 feet around the building and entrance to the shopping center was restricted, Conroy said in a statement.
The Rhode Island State Bomb Squad was notified and responded to the scene.
SOUTH KINGSTOWN ŌĆō Lt. John ŌĆ£JackŌĆØ Christy, president of the Tuckertown Fire Department, will lead this yearŌĆÖs South Kingstown Firefighters Memorial Parade as grand marshal Sunday.
Christy is a humble man who has been serving our country as an officer and a firefighter since 1953.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖve been at the Tuckertown Fire Department for 23 years,ŌĆØ Lt. Christy said in a recent interview. ŌĆ£IŌĆÖve been volunteering for 60 years [as a firefighter].ŌĆØ
Before Christy came to South County he lived and worked in New Jersey putting out fires and held a job in the commercial boating industry.
NARRAGANSETT- Due to the absence of town council member Doug Mclaughlin, the motion for the Shell Gasoline Station and Seasons Convenience Store, 1015 Boston Neck Road, to operate a 24-hour convenience store was denied with a vote of 2-2 during the meeting Monday.
Due to McLaughlinŌĆÖs absence, Town Solicitor Mark McSally stated that the motion couldnŌĆÖt be approved. Town Council President James Callaghan said that the applicants can return to the council in the future for approval of this motion but due to the split vote of the members present during the meeting, it could not be approved.

From the Iowa Hawk, "When America's Communities Need Organizing, America's Community Organizers Will Be There to Organize Them" by David Burge
We all knew Dave was the most brilliant satirist on the internet (or anywhere in the media for that matter). What we didn't know was that Dave is also a community organizer. Naturally, he is mortified by Republican attacks on his vocation and is rushing in to set the record straight:

November 28, 2015
YOLA, Nigeria (AP) - Survivors say suspected Islamic militants have killed dozens of students in a predawn attack on a northeast Nigerian college, setting ablaze a locked hostel and shooting and slitting the throats of those who escaped through windows. Some were burned alive.
One teacher estimates that 40 students died in the assault that began around 2 a.m. today at the Federal Government College Buni Yadi.
A military spokesman says soldiers still are gathering corpses so he's not able to give an exact toll.
It is the latest in a string of attacks blamed on Boko Haram the name means Western education is forbidden - that has caused regional officials to charge the military is losing its war to halt an Islamic uprising in Africa's biggest oil producer.

"Tell the police the revolution has begun!" the suspects – a man and a woman – are reported to have said after murdering two police officers at a pizza parlor on their lunch break at a pizza parlor. The suspects then left and murdered a third person in front of the Walmart that they chose as the scene of their murder/suicide.
… Read the rest
LAS VEGAS (KSNV MyNews3.com) — UPDATE: Five people — including two Metro police officers — are dead in a shootout late Sunday morning in the northeast part of the valley.
Two Metro officers were on their lunch break at the restaurant. The officers were ambushed and shot at Cici's Pizza, 309 N. Nellis Blvd. about 11:25 a.m. One died at the scene and the other died later while in surgery at UMC.
The officers killed have been identified as Alyn Beck, 42, and Igor Soldo, 32. Beck leaves a wife and three children while Soldo is survived by his wife and a baby.

I was in Japan for 10 days in 2008. We stayed at a college in Nishiyomia (between Kobe and Osaka). I had a lot of time to visit Osaka and went to the Osaka Museum and Osaka Castle, as well as visiting Dotonbori (a famous shopping district in Osaka). I also went to Kyoto (another excellent destination if you want to see a lot of really old culture and shrines). Check out Nijo Castle and gardens, The Golden Pavilion and probably thousands of other shines, there's also Geisha Town and some great shopping and eating.
In Hiroshima and Miyajima Island (part of Hiroshima I believe) I would tell anyone interested in history to go and see the Peace Memorial Gardens and museum, the Atomic Bomb Dome etc. Miyajima is where the famous Torii is in the water. We also went to Himaji and visited the castle and gardens there, but didn't see much of the town except on the strip from the bullet train station to the castle.
I also took a bus to Tokushima Island to vistit Naruto City and see the Onaruto Bridge and the whirlpools there.
Pretty much anywhere in Japan is going to be awesome, but it is quite costly. We never got to go to Tokyo because of time constraints, plus the bullet train ride to Tokyo from Kobe would have cost $300 US dollars.
That said, I would probably tell you that if you want to go one place and stay there, then go to Tokyo and spend your time exploring the city. Traveling around is difficult without a guide or someone to let you know what to do and where to go in advance. The Japanese are very friendly and helpful to travelers, but the language barrier makes being lost very difficult, and maps? HA! All I can say about that is, "directions" do not work the same there as they do in America and finding a place by an address is um...I never could do it, and neither could my Japanese host on at least one occasion.
well, I guess I'm not very useful, but those are some suggestions of places you could visit at least. I hope your trip is a fun one!
