20 College Football Players on Santa's Nice List
Santa's Nice List: 2012 College Football Edition
Too often, the college football players making headlines are the ones in the news for the wrong reasons: failed drug tests, DUI arrests, assault charges, and anything else that fits under the ubiquitous "violation of team rules."
They're not the guys you'd want your Pee Wee football players looking to as role models, but fortunately, there are hundreds of college football players giving back to their communities, excelling in school, and just being all-around good guys.
Those stories aren't always the ones that drive page views and start fervent discussions in website comment sections, but thanks to social media, particularly Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, today's college athletes are able to share their good deeds with the world as they happen – posting photos from hospital visits with terminally ill children and from planes en route to offseason humanitarian trips.
Many athletes go above and beyond the community service required by their universities and have been recognized for their efforts with prestigious awards. The Senior CLASS Award ("Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School"), the Wuerffel Trophy, the Pop Warner Award, and the Allstate AFCA Good Works Team all celebrate the important contributions college football players make off the field.
The players on this list are just a few of those making a difference in their communities each and every day. Some of them, like USC's Matt Barkley and Oklahoma's Landry Jones, helped organize trips to Haiti with teammates to build houses and schools. Others, like Michigan's Patrick Omameh and Nebraska's Rex Burkhead, were introduced to terminally ill children through their schools or other organizations, but took it upon themselves to nurture special relationships with young kids they now consider dear friends.
Regardless of how much playing time they get, or how talented they are, or what kind of a future they might have in the NFL, today's college football players have a unique opportunity to contribute to their communities.
For every player that makes headlines for doing something he shouldn't, there's another who's demonstrating that his most important responsibility is not as an athlete, or even a student-athlete, but a compassionate human being.
In the spirit of the season, here's a look - but certainly not a complete list - at twenty college football players who have earned a spot on Santa's Nice List in 2012.
Barrett Jones, Alabama
Jones has been a standout presence on the football team and in the community throughout his Alabama career. An active member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Jones traveled to Haiti twice to help the island rebuild after the devastating earthquake in 2010, and before his senior season, he went on a mission trip to Nicaragua. He also helped with local clean-up and rebuilding efforts after Tuscaloosa was ravaged by tornadoes, and he frequently visits local schools to read to children. Jones was the 2011 recipient of the Wuerffel Trophy, which goes to the athlete "who best combines exemplary community service with athletic and academic achievement", and he also won the ARA Sportsmanship Award last season. He's a finalist for this year's Senior CLASS Award.
Matt Barkley, USC
Barkley is the 2012 recipient of the Wuerffel Trophy honoring exemplary community service, as well as academic and athletic achievements. Last offseason, Barkley, who has taken numerous mission trips with his family, led a group of his USC teammates on a trip to build houses in Haiti. The previous winter, he and his family traveled to Nigeria to visit orphanages and deliver much-needed supplies. Barkley's good works aren't limited to annual trips abroad: when he's at home in Southern California, he visits hospitals, mentors young athletes, and works with organizations focused on helping inner-city kids.
Sean Renfree, Duke
Duke quarterback Sean Renfree was this year's Pop Warner Award winner, recognizing a Pop Warner alumnus who who has made a difference on the field, in the classroom and in his community. During his career at Duke, Renfree has been active in the Durham community, volunteering with the Duke Children's Hospital, Ronald McDonald House, Read with the Blue Devils, the Durham Rescue Mission, the MLK "Million Meals" Event and Active Teens. Renfree was also honored as a National Football Foundation Scholar-Athlete and a member of the AFCA Good Works Team, and he is a finalist for the Senior CLASS Award.
Rex Burkhead, Nebraska
The Nebraska tailback is the 2012 winner of the Uplifting Athletes Rare Disease Champion Award, for helping to put a national focus on aiding children with rare diseases. Burkhead has become friends with six-year-old Jack Hoffman, a Nebraska kindergartner with a rare brain tumor. Hoffman's wish was to meet Burkhead, but the football player was as much in awe of Jack as Jack was of his football hero. Burkhead was only asked to meet Hoffman, but since that first meeting, Burkhead has continued to be involved with "Team Jack."
Adam Replogle, Indiana
Like many on this list, Replogle has a history of giving back; in 2011, he was the Big Ten's Sportsmanship Award winner. An Allstate AFCA Good Works team nominee this year, the defensive tackle organized a team-wide trip to Riley's Childrens Hospital in Indianapolis to deliver toys and meet young patients, and he has worked closely with the Bloomington Boys and Girls' Club, the Monroe County Youth Football League, and Read Across America.
Patrick Omameh, Michigan
When Omameh first visited the university's C.S. Mott Children's Hospital on a Thursday night as part of "Michigan from the Heart," he didn't know just how much the experience would change his life. Omameh befriended a young girl, Faith Falzon, who suffers from a condition, hyperganglionosis, that can make her very sick. The two developed a special bond, sharing inside jokes (they tell other patients he's a top tennis player) and just talking about their day. When Omameh was named to the 2012 Allstate AFCA Good Works team, Falzon was there to support him, just as he's always been there to support her.
Jeff Braun, West Virginia
Braun credited a supportive family for his success in life this far, and at West Virginia, he's thrown himself into activities that allow him to have a similar impact on others. He visits children's hospitals and retirement homes, works with the Boys and Girls Club, and volunteers with Stepping Stones, an organization that provides child-focused therapeutic programming for troubled children and families. Braun also participated in the Walk a Miles in Her Shoes event to raise awareness about domestic violence and sexual assault and is involved in the campus' Green Dot program to combat bullying.
Manti Te'o, Notre Dame
Te'o is among the most decorated defensive players in college football history, and he's also one of the most respected. In addition to his numerous on-field achievements, he's also a finalist for the Senior CLASS Award, which emphasizes community service and staying in school. Te'o was the team's unquestioned leader, despite dealing with two personal tragedies during the year, when his grandmother and girlfriend both passed away.
Even while still grieving for his own losses, he took it upon himself to reach out to a family of Notre Dame fans dealing with their own grief. He wrote a letter to the parents of Bridget Smith, a young girl who was battling leukemia, offering his support and prayers during their daughter's last days. The contents of the letter remain private between Te'o and the Smith family; in fact, Teo's gesture only became public when a family friend told Fox Sports about the linebacker's kindness.
Nate Boyer, Texas
Boyer, this year's Disney Spirit Award Winner, isn't a traditional student-athlete. He's a 31-year-old long snapper who was a member of the Green Berets Special Forces unit before he started playing football at Texas. He didn't even play football, making his journey to earn a scholarship with the Longhorns even more inspirational. Boyer has already done more for his nation than most college players could hope to, but he continues to give back to the community, participating in team visits to the Dell Children's Medical Center. A member of the Darrell K Royal-Memorial Stadium Veterans Committee, Boyer has also done relief work in Africa's war-torn Darfur region.
Landry Jones, Oklahoma
Jones is one of several athletes who had traveled to Haiti since 2010 to help build houses and schools for communities that lost everything during the earthquake. Jones and his wife, Whitney, are active in their church and with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and Jones, a finalist for the Senior CLASS Award, frequently speaks to children from schools and youth groups around Norman.
Collin Klein, Kansas State
A Heisman Trophy finalist, Klein was one of the best players in college football over the last two seasons. He's been described as a Tim Tebow clone for his style of play, but his community service effort rival those of the former Florida quarterback. Klein, who shares Tebow's strong devotion to his faith, leads a prayer group and is a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. He has volunteered with a local pregnancy crisis center, an elementary school reading program, Adopt-A-Family, the Special Olympics, and a community retirement center.
Kyle Negrete, USC
Quarterback Matt Barkley is the most prominent USC Trojan active in the community, but punter Kyle Negrete has done just as much, if not more, to give back. One of Barkley's best friends, Negrete accompanied the quarterback on his last two overseas trips, to Nigeria and to Haiti. Anyone following Negrete on Twitter or Instagram will know that he's also very close with two special children at the Los Angeles Children's Hospital. He frequently posts photos of their visits together, calling them "angels" who inspire him daily.
Caleb Sturgis, Florida
Sturgis was the SEC Football Community Service Team Player of the Week back in October. He was recognized for his work with a variety of community organizations through UF's Goodwill Gators program. Sturgis has tutored elementary school students, visited military veterans, spent time with patients at UF's Shands Hospital, and distributed food and supplies to Gainesville families over the holidays. He and his teammates also participated in "Swamp Field Trips," showing children around the football stadium and locker rooms as a reward for success in school.
Brandon McManus, Temple
Kickers don't get much attention unless they do something either very wrong, or very right. Off the field, McManus is doing all the right things: participated in an annual Thanksgiving food drive, the A Mile in Her Shoes walk, Read Across America, and Ronald McDonald House visits. In 2011, McManus, who has two aunts who have been diagnosed with breast cancer, was a project manager for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure event held at the Philadelphia Art Museum.
Ryan Aplin, Arkansas State
The Red Wolves' quarterback takes a personal interest in visiting children's hospitals with his teammates, because his younger sister was born with a genetic abnormality known as Smith-Magenis Syndrome. Her condition inspired Aplin to become involved with the Special Olympics when he was still in high school, and he's also helped organize and publicize March of Dimes events.
Duron Harmon, Rutgers
Harmon, a Senior CLASS Award finalist, has been recognized for his work with the New Jersey Special Olympics over the last three years. He was also involved in former teammate Eric LeGrand's annual Walk to Believe in 2011 and 2012, and he assisted with Hurricane Irene cleanup efforts in the state.
Mike James, Miami
James won Miami's Community Service Man of the Year and MVP Awards this season, and he was also a finalist for the Pop Warner Award. James was a project manager for the 2012 University of Miami Bone Marrow Drive, served meals to the homeless at the Miami Rescue Mission, and volunteered for Empowered Youth, an organization providing mentoring to at-risk youth. James, whose mother passed away in a tragic car accident days before the team's bowl game in 2010, was named to this year's Allstate AFCA Good Works Team.
Johnthan Banks, Mississippi State
Cornerback Johnthan Banks isn't likely to be found hitting up the bars after a big victory. He's more apt to head home and visit his horses, then spend quality time with his family. Banks returned to college for his senior year to set a good example for his young son, but that's just one of the ways he's been a positive role model in his community. Banks is also active with the Salvation Army and local youth football camps, and he serves as a mentor for young students preparing for statewide assessment exams.
Akeem Davis, Memphis
Davis is a finalist for the Lee Roy Selmon Community Spirit Award as well as for this year's ARA Sportsmanship Award. The two-time team captain read to local elementary school children as part of Dr. Seuss Read Across America days, and also tutored Tennessee fifth-graders in preparation for their TCAP achievement tests. He has volunteered with the National Civil Rights Museum and the Children's Museum of Memphis.
Jason Schepler, Northern Illinois
Schepler was the only player from the Mid-American Conference nominated for this year's Senior CLASS Award. The tight end, who was also one of the 117 nominees for the Allstate AFCA Good Works team, manages to lead his team in community service while maintaining a 3.85 GPA in electrical engineering - no easy feat. Schepler, a former walk-on, speaks at local schools and visits nursing homes and hospitals. He has volunteered at elementary school Fun Fairs and the Boy Scout "Sports Day" on the NIU campus, and in 2011, while rehabbing from a knee injury, he helped his team by acting as an unofficial assistant coach.

Just like the land that bear the name Africa,
C#m E
Love is on my mind.
It's for everyone no matter where you're from,
Love, it cross all lines.
Like the feeling of all the seasons changing,
Love is a memory
And in these last days, when iniquity blazing,
Truth Love Speaks.
I need true love
Do you know what you mean to me
Does it show as I live and I breath
In the valley of the shadow, I know you'll be.
I defense, I conquer death
I conquer the enemy (envy).
What is love really if it only affects, one aspect of life?
That's like a musician who only accepts, his own musical type.
That's like a preacher who only respects sunday morning, and not
saturday night
That's how a soldier can come to reflect,
that Love is more than a man and a wife.
In a time of plenty, Jah gonna keep I strong.
Things get how and I keep cool, yeah,
Jah gonna keep me strong.
When InI cup is empty,
Jah gonna keep I strong.
When InI cup is full, yeah,
Jah keep I from their temptation.

BOSTON (AP) -- After doubling twice Saturday, Manny Ramirez has a
.349 average and a large enough lead in the AL batting race that he
could finish first no matter what he does in the season finale.
"I think that Manny won't start the game tomorrow,'' Boston
manager Grady Little said after Tampa Bay's Randy Winn homered
during a seven-run seventh inning to give the Devil Rays a 9-6
victory over the Red Sox.
"That's my thinking right now,'' Little said. "I'm not saying
he won't see action before the game's over. It's kind of a joint
Ramirez was not available for comment after the game.
"Manny's been getting after it pretty hard. He's been under a
lot of stress,'' Little said. "If he comes in in the morning and
is displeased with me about not playing, maybe he'll play.''
Ramirez went 2-for-4 to pad his lead over Kansas City's Mike
Sweeney, who went 0-for-4 earlier in the day and dropped to .340.
Even if Ramirez went 0-for-4 and Sweeney went 4-for-4 on Sunday,
Ramirez would win by .34545 to .34526.
Winn also singled in a run in the eighth for his 180th hit of
the season, breaking Quinton McCracken's 1998 club record as the
Devil Rays won for the third time in 18 games against Boston.
"You can easily quit when you have lost as many games as we
have lost,'' manager Hal McRae said. "So, I'm proud of the fact
that they haven't given up.''
Victor Zambrano (8-8) allowed four runs -- three earned -- six hits
and four walks in six innings, striking out five. Lance Carter
pitched three innings to earn his second save, despite Nomar
Garciaparra hit a two-out, two-run homer in the ninth.
Boston's Tim Wakefield moved into the league leaders in earned-run average with
six strong innings, but he dropped from third to fourth after being
charged with two runs in the seventh.
"He's the most valuable guy on our team,'' shortstop Nomar
Garciaparra said, noting that Wakefield started the season in the
bullpen. "He's done everything that's been asked of him. He
deserves it. It's a tribute to him.''
Wakefield had allowed just one run on three hits and two walks
before giving up a leadoff double in the seventh to Jared Sandberg.
Brent Abernathy singled to cut Boston's lead to 4-2 and chase
Bobby Howry (3-6) hit Felix Escalona, Damian Rolls advanced the
runners with a sacrifice bunt and Carl Crawford followed with a
run-scoring groundout to make it 4-3. Winn homered into the right
field corner to give Tampa Bay its first lead of the game.
Aubrey Huff reached on left fielder Benny Agbayani's fielding
error, Ben Grieve was intentionally walked and Toby Hall, who had
homered in the third, doubled to drive in another run and make it
6-4. Sandberg, coming up for the second time in the inning, and
Abernathy followed with RBI singles to make it 8-4.
The scoring outburst left Wakefield with a 2.81 ERA and may have
deprived him of a chance to finish 1-2-3 in the ERA race with Pedro
Martinez (2.26) and Derek Lowe (2.58). Oakland's Barry Zito, third
at 2.78, was scheduled to pitch Sunday.
Wakefield's ERA has been below 3.00 for some time, but because
he started the season in the bullpen he went into Saturday needing
4 2/3 innings to qualify.
Game notes
The last team to have two 20-game winners and a batting
champion was the 1959 Milwaukee Braves with Hank Aaron, Warren
Spahn and Lew Burdette, who tied the Dodgers at the end of the
regular season and lost a best-of-three playoff for the NL pennant.
... Wakefield had won four consecutive decisions. It was the first
time in nine starts he allowed more than two earned runs. ...
Ramirez would be the third Red Sox batting champion in four years.
Garciaparra won in 1999-00. Boston has had eight of the past 21
batting champions (Carney Lansford '81, Wade Boggs '83, '85-88).
... Zambrano tied for the team lead in wins with Joe Kennedy.

Separate border control legislation would force the Democrats to stand up and be counted on this issue, without the political cover of a package deal. Some of the more weak-kneed Republicans also want this political cover but taking away the package deal would do far more damage to the Democrats.
Legislation dealing solely -- and seriously -- with border control might be difficult for some Congressional Republicans to vote for but it would be a political nightmare for the Democrats in Congress. And a bill takes just 51 votes to pass in the Senate.
Unfortunately, President Bush has pushed the package deal and used the straw man argument that we cannot find and deport millions of people, even though virtually no one has said that we could.
The real question is whether sweeping the illegal alien problem under the rug by calling them legal will bring in still more millions of illegals, as a previous amnesty has already done. Nor will calling amnesty by some other name do anything more than undermine the confidence of the American people in general and the Republican base in particular.
Sometimes caution is the most dangerous policy. General MacArthur once defined defensive warfare in one word: "Defeat."
Frankly, the Republicans deserve to lose this fall's election, after their wild spending and pandering to economic ignorance on gas prices. But a Republican defeat would only bring in the Democrats -- and the country does not deserve anything that disastrous. The Democrats' petty obstruction and irresponsible demagoguery in wartime disqualifies them for national leadership when a nuclear Iran and nuclear terrorists loom on the horizon.

Does this work with the newer dalli gem? I didn't see any reference to it in the codebase
April 11 2013, 12:26PM
How this would work in a multitenant, multischema (PostgreSQL). I can have a product with id = 1 in schema1 and also a product with id = 1 on schema2 but those two products are different.
April 11 2013, 01:39PM
Brad, IdentityCache will use an underlying ActiveSupport::Cache::Store, if yours is configured to use dalli IDC will use it.
April 11 2013, 01:47PM
IdentityCache assumes ids to be unique, so multischema situations are not something it supports out of the box.
Potentially the schema name/id could be added to the cache keys, and the database finders. Hoever that is not something in our roadmap.
April 13 2013, 12:51AM
Why did you choose the fetch predicate?
Isn't the caching always the desirable behaviour?
Isn't includung the module already a clear signal, that `find` and relations would be cached?
April 15 2013, 12:45PM
How to test it?
April 15 2013, 12:53PM
Cache is almost always the desirable behaviour, however under some circumstances (salve replication lag) for instance you need to be certain the data you are getting is authoritative. That is why fetch_ exists to give developers a clear signal; "hey you are working with cached data".
April 17 2013, 11:19PM
This idea is very similar to this:
Except that my gem is framework-agnostic, doesn't care about what kind of cache software you use, as long as the cache is configurable through Rails.
It also doesn't require the keys must be defined in advance. Developers can say fetch by whatever they want, then those attributes automatically become keys.

From looking at the code, I had a question: why is the cache disabled if there's an open connection? E.g.:
def should_cache? # :nodoc:
!readonly && ActiveRecord::Base.connection.open_transactions == 0
Isn't every web request in Rails wrapped in a TX?
August 01 2013, 08:36PM
No, not every request is wrapped in a transaction by default, and that would be an odd design decision.
October 22 2013, 11:11AM
This reminds me of EHCache, one of the things that made J2EE development tolerable, back in the day.
I was getting stale cache reads in my test env, so I monkey-patched my identity_cache.
I've modified the following method, defined in build_normalized_has_many_cache:
def #{options[:population_method_name]}
@#{options[:ids_variable_name]} = #{options[:ids_name]}
@#{options[:records_variable_name]} = nil
I added the last line. Now, I can call populate_#{association_name}_cache to ensure that subsequent calls to fetch_#{association_name} won't return a stale value. I'm sure there's a better way, but so far I haven't found it.
This is not as crucial in the development env, since the model instances are destroyed at the end of the request.
I do wonder why you create @#{options[:records_variable_name]} in the first place, when it seems you could use association_cache. What am I missing?

Does anyone know if there are some decent restaurants within 500m of this resort? Or is the resort restaurant itself good for food?
How far are the deluxe garden bungalows from the beach and how steep is the walk?
If one.books a snorkelling trip do u have to walk to another part of the island to join.the boat?
Do think 4 nights is enough to see the nearby islands or would u recommend a week stay?

Mountain is kind of far up there at the northern end of Sunrise Beach... Haven't tried the restaurant but it has nice views over to Ko Adang. It's a big resort (at least by Lipe standards) and while I'm not positive, I would imagine that the deluxe garden bungalow is a fair walk up the hill. To get to most of the restaurants on Walking Street you have to walk down a steep set of concrete stairs then cross through the island's central area, or down a steep set of wooden stairs then walk up the beach for a ways. It's not that far but requires a bit of a hike either way due to the hill. Locals (i.e. foreigners who live on Lipe) told me bad things about Mountain from an environmental standpoint (i.e. irresponsible methods in dealing with sewage, garbage and also a very dated generator), though I can't back it up by personal experience. The resort failed to impress me on the whole; felt it was rather bland, not that most of the others with air-con in that price range are much better (i.e. Andaman, Sita, Varin, Power Beach, Bundhaya, etc.). Air-con is so expensive on Lipe and the resorts that have it are either nothing special or really pricey. The seafront bungalows at Gipsy Resort or any at Castaway are great if you can manage with just a fan.
Most of the snorkeling trips around Lipe are done by longtail, and I'm sure Mountain has its own boat(s). Four nights is good for a snorkeling trip to Adang and maybe Rawi with just enough time to relax, but probably not if you want to hit Tarutao as well. Lipe itself is tiny.

I last called in at Mountain Resort in March 2013 and stayed there a couple of years previously. As said, the views from the restaurant are probably the best on the island. Plus the section of beach a short distance to the right in front of the northern bungalows of Andaman Resort where Andaman Beach (Sunrise Beach) curves around the north east corner of the island is maybe the best on Lipe. I thought there was evidence of a waste-water plume right in front of Mountain Resort and so walked the extra 50 m east.
The resort's restaurant had pretty nice food but at a premium over budget bungalow joints - not over the top but enough to get cheapskates like me looking elsewhere for some meals. When I stayed, Andaman Resort has the closest restaurant - this is a real strung out resort and even though the nearest bungalows are only 50m from Mountain, the restaurant had to be 400m. I wasn't whelmed with the food, service or prices - but that was 3 years ago.
I noticed last visit that 2 new joints, Susanna and Cozy Cove has sprung up next door adjacent Mountain to the west - these looked budget/flashpacker so maybe the food is similarly priced.
But what the hell - it is a very pleasant 10 minute walk down Andaman beach to just past the village where you hang a hard right and within 2 minutes are into the vast array of budget eat joints around Walking Street. You may say you don't feel like that first thing before breakfast - but most deals to Mountain Resort include buffet brekka which from memory was pretty good.
I stayed in the cheapest bungalows, dunno if they were called Delux, and they were maybe 40m from the steps down to the beach. The steps are not killers unless you are a totally unfit dude. In that case they are a good thing - stick with them and you will be less totally unfit when you leave.
Note that the most distant accommodation in the resort is less than 150m from the steps.
Dunno abt the snorkelling trip but if it like all places in LOS I've booked one from, the boat starts from the resort or at least comes and picks you up.
4 nights is plenty for Lipe and to see neighbouring Adang and Rawi. You can't really do Tarutao and Bulon Lae on daytrips - but they are sweet places for a few nights.

Having stayed at 7 different Lip resorts over the years, I've come to the conclusion that it does not matter much WHERE it is located - unless you are on one of the more western beaches of the north coast you are within a reasonable stroll of all the restaurants and bars of the two main beaches Pattaya and Andaman plus the interconnecting Walking Street. And if it is an easy walk to these places it doesn't matter all that much if your particular resort has a good restaurant.
I reckon it is more a matter of checking the user reviews of joints within your price range and if one sounds good, go for it, irrespective of location.
For instance last trip I stayed a short distance up a side street from Walking Street at a kinda boutique budget joint, Gypsy Rivendale (this is a sister resort to the above-mentioned Gypsy down on Andaman Beach abt which I have heard good things and intend to check out next trip) which didn't have a restaurant. No worries - Walking St 2 minutes, Pattaya Beach 5, Andaman Beach 10.
My favorurite resort is Viewpoint on its 2 little beaches just south of Andaman. I noticed last pass by that the owner had put in 2 nice aircon bungalows just behind the better of his 2 beaches. Sweet. But I have never seen this place on the booking sites.

A couple years ago I stayed at the Bundhaya. More high end than what I tend to stay in but was in the middle of a longer trip and felt like a bit more comfort at the time.
Great rooms - go for the more expensive ones in the front. Restaurant was very good. I was there in high season - at that time the beach was a bit crowded...but a simple walk can alleviate that...
My 2 cents.

Re bundhaya the deluxe garden bungalows look really good. Rather stay 30m back from beach. Total beachfronts lack privacy and u pay extra.

In my game, Ashley did it, and she was the one that held Shep's nameplate during the "funeral" scene. I'm assuming it's because she was the LI back in ME1 while Miranda was in ME2&3, so the game picked Ash. Garrus would have made more sense, but I imagine he was too overcome with grief and had probably been drinking to numb the pain.
Was Ash in your squad in the dash for the beam? If so then I have no idea what the criteria might be. As I said, in my game, Liara was the LI and I had her in my squad during the evac scene and it was Garrus that had the scene with Joker.
It wouldn't make much sense for either of your squadmates to be in that scene since they should have been down in medbay at that point.

^There's a difference between seeing fellow solders die and watching a child you spoke to just 10 minutes ago get blown to tiny bits. Aside from being something of a riff on 'Schindler's List' (remember the girl in the red coat?) the kid is supposed to have come to subconsciously represent all those Shepard couldn't save.
As for why the Catalyst took that form, it's a fair bet that it wasn't a hologram, but was a direct communication with Shepard's mind. While I don't buy the Indoctrination Theory, it's a fair bet that the Reapers got inside her skull through TIM and chose that form from her subconscious.
Oh, I understand what the kid is supposed to represent. I just think if they were serious about having your choices "matter", then tying that ghost kid to an actual loss from the very first game would have made much more sense.
The problem with that idea is that it's not universal for all Shepards. Aside from practical concerns like it doubling the memory budget by having to record the dialogue twice, what if you're playing a full on renegade that doesn't feel at all bad about the loss of Kaiden (I know I didn't!) It also risks alienating anyone who hasn't played the previous games as they'll have no clue who that person is, nor why they should care. Plus of course this would place that particular character's death as "important" over and above anyone else who may have died since in ME2 & earlier in ME3, which again is not universal to all Shepards.
They spent a lot of time in the game establishing the recurring dream and what it means to Shepard. The kid is just a symbol. Indeed, after one of the dreams (the second one I think?) Shepard can tell Liara that she was thinking about whomever died on Virmire.

Damn! Just got my results. Is there anything that can be done at this point to clear it up? I have had 2 friends whose babies got terribly sick b/c of GBS, so I will likely go for the abx if I need to, but I would love to avoid it. Cannot imagine dealing with yeast on top of tear/hemmroids etc.
I see this is a bit old, and maybe you even gave birth by now, but I had to respond as I was in your position 7 months ago! I was neg with my first child 5 years ago so wasn't expecting to positive this time. I was very upset at the thought of having the IV, I didn't even want that. I talked about it with my amazing midwife who reassured me that I could still get in the shower (she had the nurse cover the IV needle with a rubber glove over my hand) and basically let me know that I only needed two doses. I asked how it would affect things being that I wanted to stay home as long as possible...she said, "good question" and let me figure it out....I did end up staying home as long as I could stand it and then by the time I got to the hospital I only got one dose of the anitbiotics in me. I had no problems with yeast, and my baby didn't either. While the risk of a complication is rare, in my mind if it was MY baby then I didn't care about the statistics. Good luck!

Phoenix, AZ (Sports Network) - Eric Chavez went 2-for-3 and recorded two of his three RBI during a four-run fifth inning that paved the way for the Arizona Diamondbacks' 5-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves in the finale of a three-game set.
Didi Gregorius and Cody Ross each drove in a run during the rally, which made a winner out of Ian Kennedy (2-3), who had given up two runs in his fifth and final inning.
He struck out seven and allowed three runs in all on five hits. It's Kennedy's first victory since defeating the St. Louis Cardinals on Opening Day.
Heath Bell worked around a one-out double in the ninth to notch his sixth save and give the D'backs the series victory. Arizona has won seven of its last 10 games.
Tim Hudson (4-3) couldn't stop the bleeding for Atlanta, which is just 10-17 since its 12-1 start to the season. The righty was tagged for all five runs on eight hits over five frames.
"Just losing two out of three, you feel like we won a couple of those games because of the way we hit the ball," said Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez.
Freddie Freeman went 3-for-4 and plated all three runs for the Braves.
The Diamondbacks had just five hits in their last 56 tries with runners in scoring position coming into the contest, but matched that hit total during Wednesday's performance on eight chances.
"We just try and get good at-bats, for some reason we're not pushing a lot of runs across the board right now," said Chavez. "But that's going to change, just keep swinging the bats, have good approaches and put some runs on the board."
After putting Arizona in a two-run hole in the fifth, Kennedy was pinch-hit for in the bottom half by Jason Kubel, whose one-out walk sparked a four-run inning.
Gerardo Parra followed with a single and Gregorius pounded one up the middle to plate a run. Two batters later, Chavez ripped a double to center to put the D'backs back in front before Ross made it 5-3 with an RBI single into right.
Paul Goldschmidt ripped his first of three doubles on the day in the first inning and Chavez gave the D'backs a 1-0 lead when he grounded a base hit past the diving reach of shortstop Andrelton Simmons.
Kennedy was cruising along until he surrendered a pair of two out singles in the third and then threw eight straight balls in walking Justin Upton and Freeman to force in a run.
Freeman came to bat again in the fifth, and with runners on first and second, sent a double in the gap in center field to clear the bags and stake Atlanta to a 3-1 edge.
Hudson, though, couldn't hold the lead. He gave it right back in the bottom half as eight Diamondbacks came to plate before getting out of the frame behind by two runs.
Hudson suffered his career defeat to the Diamondbacks. He was 7-0 in nine
career outings coming in ... The Braves have lost five of their last six games
... Atlanta was just 1-for-11 with runners in scoring position ... Arizona had
10 hits and scored more than three runs for the first time in five games.

Discussion in 'PlanetSide 2 Gameplay Discussion' started by Wrel, Dec 31, 2012.
Some of the less "honorable" ways to grind certs in Planetside 2.
Please dont advertise.
My guide follows.
1: Earn some money
2:Buy some station cash
3:Buy things with Station cash
So much easier than all that.
1. Recruit a friend to play Planetside 2
2. Both of you buy the zephyr
3. Rotate lib runs
4. Rack up certs and a 15-1 kdr, then come to the forums to tell all of us how great you are at video games
5. Flog yourself while staring at your stats, but don't forget to take the hot pocket out of the microwave
Do you have a sub-guide for step 1?
solo capping an undefended base is boring enough. Trying to get people to watch you solo cap an undefended base is a crime against humanity.
1: Get a decent education
2: Search for jobs.
3: Apply for Job
4: If you got job proceed to next step if not go back to step 2
5: Do job
6: Wait till payday
7: You now have money.
Please troll elsewhere.
7:00 why does the VS turret have no recoil? you should try using an NC turret you have to recorrect every single shot.
Its not trolling. Thats your youtube video and you are advertising it to us.
bot blizzard games, it's like legal crime
Actually it's a pretty good guide. Will do the last one next time I'm on a continent that gets rolled over by the opposing Zerg.
The theory of "more people hurting the game will cause Sony to fix the game" is bugged. That's like seeing a house with its door unlocked, so you go in and steal stuff, and tell everyone to loot the house, cause the more people that do will cause the home owners to lock their door faster...
These are horrible suggestions. You can gain certs far faster by infantry play.
All of that stuff isn't hurting the game, it isn't griefing, it isn't hacking, it isn't camping, it's 2 ways to boost cert gain that involve friends and nothing else and one way to punish the Zerg for being Zerg and not caring about defence.
I agree, to an extent. Which is why Part 1 exists.
Interesting example, but I think it's off base. SOE has a lot of issues to deal with. Where their attention is focused depends on how rampant the epidemic. The more people hacking, the more reason to deal with it.
If someone's house gets burgled, wouldn't the neighborhood be more apt to lock their doors?
Ah, like anyone who posts anything in a public forum. I apologize for thinking you were just full of misguided pessimism.
Much appreciated, glad you found it useful.
Separate names with a comma.

shane was to blame on both fights, what the hell is he still doing out there? hes a disgrace if he continues doing what he's doing. pretending to be confident and all that, but at the ring he just ran and ran against pac, busy touching gloves, pac was a little hesitant but i think he did his job and any come-forward guy out there would have been put to sleep again out there, i dont think pac is on the decline, at higher weights he's just not that good in cutting the ring and coming forward, he's better backwards and countering, and also using lead lefts. anyone who rans away from you like shane did against pac is bs, nobody would KO him that way, sure floyd would still land freely, but altleast shane tried against floyd, shane has nothing left and i hope he gets KOed, but i think that wont happen because pac cant

Shanes long gone. That shakey hands thing he does is a tragedy to watch. You know he's thinking about firing off but he knows he's not got the timing or the speed any longer to execute. Obvoiusly fighting the top 2 fighters pound 4 pound was going to expose that, manny putting him on his a** in the 3rd was never going to do anything for Shanes already miss firing hands, he was backed into corner.
I think the fight with Canello may be slightly more competetive due to Canellos style and he'll be in the pocket allot longer than pac or floyd.
I'm not going to blame either fighter tbh. It's all about timing, one going up the other becoming a stepping stone. Can't blame Shane for trying to make some purse before he goes either.

I'll blame team Canelo just like I blamed team Pacman.
Mosley did not have the power to choose Pacman remember that. Team Pacman offered him that fight just like team Canelo has done.
So Mosley should turn down the payday just to make team Pacman & Canelo look good?? Nah go in there get beaten up take the blame & walk away with millions, I'd do it too.

nobody blamed pac for what shane did, ppl simply recognized a flaw in his game. regardless of how shane performed pac looked terrible, again not bcuz shane ran but bcuz of how poorly pac adapted to it.
instead of cutting the ring off, using his jab and applying smart pressure he just followed shane around and leaped in with wild punches from too far away. they both looked extremely amateurish.
canelo knows better so it wont go down like that again.

Completely different style. Mosley will put on a decent show in a few weeks and actually has a chance to win. I'm gonna put some money on him since the odds are so one sided.

Robot Antennae YKTTW Discussion
|Robot Antennae
The things robots have on their heads to make them look more sci-fi like.Description Needs Help
Antimony: Hello. I would like to enter, please.
Robot guard: Robots onl... What's that on your head?Robot Girls in Japanese works (Anime and Manga, Visual Novels, and Video Games) tend to have so-called "antenna ears" as a visual indicator that the character is indeed a robot.
ExamplesAnime and Manga
- Chachamaru from Mahou Sensei Negima!.
- Nuku Nuku from All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku.
- Multi of To Heart.
- In Gundam, one of the few consistent traits throughout the multiverse of a Gundam is the iconic V-shaped antennae on its forehead. Its purpose has never been defined.
- Magma and Silvar have Robot Antennas in Magma Taishi.
- Canti from FLCL has an a rabbit-eared TV for a head.
- Robot Monster. The villain Ro-Man's head is a space helmet with antennae sticking out of it.
- Forbidden Planet: Robby the Robot has two asymmetrical circular anntennae as "ears."
- The Phantom Menace
- B1 battle droids have antennae of this time on their backpacks. They're controlled by a large space station in orbit, so they need it to receive signals.
- The bounty hunter Aurra Sing of isn't a robot, but she does have a computer implanted in her head with a long antenna visible sticking out, giving her this type of appearance.
- The giant robots and robotic flying machines in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow all had antennae for receiving instructions.
- Doctor Who: the Doctor's robot buddy-who-looks-like-a-dog K9 has two small radarlike anntennae for ears.
- Toy robots are often designed with an antenna (some of them rotated independently of the head).
- LEGO robot designs typically incorporate an antenna
- The mascot for Android mobile phones.
- Botley, the Exposition Fairy of Jumpstart Adventures3rd Grade Mystery Mountain, has an antenna bent at a right angle on his head that he says is a powerful sensor, and he uses it to tell the player which rooms the hidden mission clues are hidden. This varies with the other robots; many of them don't have antennae, some have one or two. Eggbert has a spring with a flower on the end on his head.
- The Clucker, a robotic mook from Sonic the Hedgehog has antennae on either side of its head. Most other enemies in the series are designed to resemble crustaceans, insects, and other creatures which normally bear antennae.
- Clank from Ratchet & Clank is an example.
- Both Vent and Aile gains one on their right ear in Mega Man ZX's sequel, Advent. In the first game, they lacked it.
- Averted with Team Fortress 2 in Man vs Machine mode; the robots don't have antennae. Lampshaded with the soldier's Paper-Thin Disguise as a robot that includes a coat hanger.
- Pajama Sam 2: Thunder and Lightning Aren't so Frightening. The Automated Snowflake Inspector has one antenna with a pair of white snowflake-style bits on it. Another who has one is the Snowflake Inspector Detector, or SID, a remote-control gadget that seeks out the Inspector every time he goes missing, which according to SID is often.
- Antimony of Gunnerkrigg Court invokes this trope by wearing a headband with false star-shaped antennae so she could sneak into an area restricted only to robots. The robot guard is completely fooled by her Paper-Thin Disguise.
- Robots in Freefall have these. They also contribute to the robots' Expressive Mask faces.
- Mom of Futurama, leader of Mom's Friendly Robot Company, builds all her robots this way. She says that most people think she does that for the aesthetic purpose, but she really does it so she can control all the robots she sells by remote control. This hasn't stopped the show from making several juvenile penis jokes about Bender's antenna.
- Rosie the maid in The Jetsons has two such antennae, one on either side of her head.
- Super Friends episode "Professor Goodfellow's G.E.E.C.". The giant blue robots guarding the G.E.E.C. building each have an antenna on the top of their heads.
- Gir from Invader Zim
- South Park has an example of at least assuming this when Cartman dresses up as a robot complete with antennae.
- Many characters from Robots don't have antennae. Fender has a crank atop his head that resembles an antenna. Crank and Diesel have legitimate antennae.
- Nearly all Transformers (at least in the early generations) had helmet attachments on their heads that though horn-like in some cases were most likely antennae.
- Most of the robots from Bolts And Blip have antennae.

Let's not forget the Alzheimer's study taking place overseas. Check it out as per RVX blog referring to "leading experts........" Yes, we have pipelines and yes, there is terrific potential in those areas. Faith is difficult for everyonek but my faith in this stock is very strong. I have never been a pumper, just a believer who has done my DD for over 8 yrs. and never lost faith. Reading scientific material is either boring or fascinating, it just depends on how motivated you are to find the nuggets of gold in them and put them together and that includes all pertinent scientific information and articles, nt just anything put out by Resverlogix. I have found links in many years of reading that affirm what I believe about our pipelines. You can believe anything you want and act accordingly - I am and have bought this stock during some incredible slides over the past 8 years. Make yourself happy with your own decisions and the best of luck to you Easymoney.
Epidemiological and mechanistic evidence indicate a link between low ApoA-I/HDL and neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia and Alzheimer's disease ("AD"). Our lead molecule RVX-208 has illustrated potent and selective effects in raising plasma ApoA-I/HDL by ApoA-I production which has the potential to beneficially impact vascular dementia, mild cognitive impairment ("MCI") and AD. With leading experts on our neurodegenerative clinical and scientific advisory board providing input and guidance, a Phase 2 clinical trial in this therapeutic area is planned to begin in the second half of 2013.

Kaufmann, President of Revere, is the all-digital circuitry which
allows the use of a non-HAZMAT battery. In addition, the EPIRB is much
smaller and about 3 times lighter (1.5 lbs) than any other EPIRB
available and is the only non-HAZMAT EPIRB available." The
non-HAZMAT battery allows for safe and legal air and ground transport

to Kaufmann, the McMurdo SmartFind Plus GPS EPIRB also uses an LED

burn far less electricity while providing the same required brightness
as old technology gas-bulbs. LEDs don't break and they don't burn out",
stated Mr. Kaufmann, "thus providing a much higher level of safety
performance than any other EPIRB."

I would like to buy a loupe to evaluate my negatives/slides (35mm).

Printable View
I would like to buy a loupe to evaluate my negatives/slides (35mm).
I am not sure which magnification factor I should be looking for: 4x/5x/10x?
I have a 4x magnification loupe which seems more than enough for me. I suppose it's dependant on how much detail you want.
I agree. It is a mistake to go for the biggest magnification. You wind up seeing just the grain or ground glass texture instead of the image. 4x has always worked best for me.
I only shoot 35mm film, and for standard viewing of my self-processed negatives I use a sharp, vignetting-free Schneider 4x loupe with my lightbox. However, I find it essential to also use my Schneider 10x loupe to truly determine how sharp my shots are before I attempt to print them. I say this because some times I've printed a negative after viewing it with my 4x only and have seen on the print that it is not sharp afterall. Thus, my 10x confirms via previewing that that which I choose to print is worth printing in terms of acceptable sharpness. I recommend that you bring a negative or a slide to your chosen retailer and try the various loupes they have in stock, because quality varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.
4x is pretty common in the publishing world and something in the 4x-6x range is usually a good choice for 35mm
10x or more is handy for checking sharpness, if you want to decide whether to make a big enlargement.
Whatever you decide, don't skimp on a loupe. Those cheap plastic 8x Agfa-type loupes will tell you less about your slides and will cause more eye strain than a high-quality 4x loupe. I use a Schneider 4x. If you don't have the budget for a Schneider or Rodenstock, the Peak loupes and the Pentax 5.5X have good reputations.
One of the best loupes I have is actually a finger print analyzer that I got out of an estate that I liquidated for a law professor, sharp, no distortion and about 8x, really allows you to see sharpness and I also use for my fine focus on large format, they normlly run about 10 bucks now if you can find one, but is beats my $200.00 Rodenstock, I love it.
Dave Parker
Ground Glass Specialties
I use an 8x but then my eyes are aging faster than I am. As Dave says it really shows the sharp ones from the dreaded missed ones.
I've been using a calumet loupe for a couple of years and have not had any eye strain problems at all. they are pretty cheap too. Cheap and good is a bonus in my book.
I have used 4x and 8x loupes before. The one I like best is a Peak 4X. Very good loupe at a good price point, covers the entire area for a 35mm slide, although I do move it around while analyzing the slides.
For an inexpensive loupe that has great quality, take your 50mm lens off the camera turn it upside down and use it. I'm not sure what magnification it gives... (my guess is around 4x)
Like anything, you usually get what you pay for... Look at it as an investment.

A Nebraska court found that the state law used to approve the Keystone XL project in Nebraska is unconstitutional. The state passed a law that allowed TransCanada to submit an application to either the Public Service Commission or to the Governor for approval. TransCanada chose to submit an application to Governor Dave Heineman, who approved the project. Judge Stephanie Stacy declared the law that took power away from the Public Service Commission unconstitutional, voiding the state's approval of the pipeline.
The decision throws the Keystone XL project into disarray. The judge prohibited the Governor "from taking any action on the governor's January 22, 2013 approval of the Keystone XL Pipeline route," meaning the project, for now, cannot move forward.
The surprise decision is a victory for landowners in Nebraska who took the case to court. It also provides political cover for the Obama administration to slow walk any decision on the pipeline, perhaps until after the mid-term elections. The President seemed to be in a no-win situation with the decision – approving or rejecting it would anger key voting blocks. Presumably he can now point to the court decision as a reason for not taking action for another year or so.
The court decision came the same day that President Obama met with his Mexican and Canadian counterparts in Toluca, Mexico. Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper pressed Obama on the issue, calling it a "no brainer." Obama was unbending in his stance that the pipeline must go through the proper process. "Keystone will proceed along the path that's already been set forth. I know it's been extensive and at times, I'm sure, Stephen feels, a little too laborious," he said, according to Bloomberg.
To receive approval, the Keystone XL pipeline would now need approval from the Nebraska Public Service Commission, which theoretically will undertake a more extensive review than the Governor.
