Topic: I SAW 3 What You Did Last Halloween?!?!?
Posted: October 26 2006 at 7:11am
The only review on rotten tomatoes so far (From coming soon.net) gives it a six out of ten. The reviewer seems to think that they're running out of ideas, but, like me, thinks Tobin Bell's Jigsaw is a great villain he says: "I'm not trying to be mean, but Shawnee Smith really is a terrible actress, and she's much more convincing as a victim than she is as a villain. Then again, she has to compete with Tobin Bell, who has turned the subdued menace of his character into an art form." I love villains like that. I always preferred Kevin Spacey's John Doe over Anthony Hopkins' Hannibal Lector.

The first one was passably bad (you might rent it and just be annoyed that you paid for it) but the 2nd one was laughable! Besides the death traps, neither movie had much going for it. Too bad, because it's a good idea, and they could have been great pshycological thrillers if done better (in all areas).

The greatest acting accomplishment in both Saw movies was the fact that Tobin Bell managed to escape with his full dignity (maybe a little more) intact. He's quite good in these movies. The usually good Cary Elwes was a bit of a dissapointment in the first one, as was Danny Glover. Also, I found it funny that Jigsaw in the second one closely resembled Emperor Palpatine from The Star Wars films.

I love psychological horror movies, and I prefer the "Saw" franchise
over "Hostel".
Here's how I would rate the first two:
I - Classic
II - Meh.

text: Home Culture Michael Steele and Reince Preibus Judged by Different Standards In a piece for Ebony, Michael Arceneaux sheds light on former Chairman of the Republican National Committee Michael Steele's problem with his successor. Apparently Priebus is getting breaks that eluded Steele. By: Michael Arceneaux Posted: June 4 2013 12:15 AM 0 Reince Preibus (Win McNamee/Getty Images); Michael Steele (Saul Loeb/Getty Images) In a piece for Ebony, Michael Arceneaux sheds light on former Chairman of the Republican National Committee Michael Steele's problem with his successor. Arceneaux describes and sympathizes with Steele's frustration that Reince Priebus is not being taken to task for once supporting some of Steele's unpopular decisions. Two months ago, Steele gave an interview in which he blasted Preibus for feigning aloofness over his own actions as RNC chair. "Reince Priebus was my right hand," Steele told host Larry O'Connor. "What annoys the heck out of me is that for two years, Reince Priebus was in every room I was in, a part of every major decision I made for how much money we would spend, what we would spend that money on, what the priorities of the RNC would be." Steele went on to say that Preibus not only had a hand in the decision-making progress, but that "he recommended to me to go into debt." I'd rather take a hammer to my finger than ever vote for a Republican, but I can't help but notice there's a bit of a double standard here when it comes to the reactions Michael Steele had with his successes as RNC chair, and Reince Preibus, his losses.

Male Guppies following female platy?
ok, so a male guppy following a female guppy, normal, but a male guppy following a female platy, not normal.
i have 2 male guppies and 2 female guppies, and I have 2 female platies and 1 male platy, but the male guppies are following 1 of the female guppies along with the male platy. I was just wondering about this...
thank you
Guppies will try to mate with just about anything. He may be trying, however its an impossible. A guppy (Poecilia) cannot cross with a platy (Xiphophorus).
Im pretty sure...

The Merry Band of Wrigglers
Men, women, passion, and sperm.
The old adage says that a wife can't change her husband, but the truth is that women for thousands of years have been shaping one crucial male attribute: sperm. Men tend to produce as many sperm as possible as quickly as possible, a manufacturing decision that sacrifices quality control: Their sperm are frequently mutated or deformed as a result. Why, then, do men make millions of sperm at once? Because they're adapting to ward off the effects of women's frequent cheating, according to a paper published in December in the Journal of Theoretical Biology.
Humans aren't especially good at monogamy. Evidence gathered from surveys and paternity tests suggests that 25 percent of women and 30 percent of men cheat on their spouses at least once during marriage. The evolutionary reason that men cheat is pretty simple: to father as many children as they can. It's more complicated for women, who can only give birth so many times. The quality of the child, then, wins over quantity. Because men with the best genes aren't always the most stable and resourceful partners (they don't have to be), women might marry the latter but cheat with the former. Then they can become pregnant with a genetically superior child who will, if her mother can pull it off, grow up with the help of her unwitting spouse.
Women aren't consciously playing out these underlying reasons for their urge to cheat, of course. But if this cheating "pays off" in children who are more likely to survive and reproduce, the predilection to cheat will become an evolutionally advantageous trait—and the net result, over many generations, will be women who cheat.
Clearly, though, this is no good for their husbands, who are duped into raising kids who aren't theirs. Some scientists believe men have adapted clever ways to prevent this from happening. Not only are there studies to indicate that husbands do things to keep their wives from cheating in the first place—such as tracking their whereabouts—there is research that suggests men have evolved so as to correctfor women's cheating after the fact, by maximizing the chances that their sperm will conceive over someone else's.
The idea of "sperm competition," as it is called, is a familiar one in the animal world—there's lots of literature about it. For example, male flour beetles have spiny penises designed to remove rival sperm from a female's reproductive tract. And in a study published in 2002, scientists compared two groups of nematode worms: those that mated with females in the presence of competing males and those that mated without any male competition. After 60 generations had passed under these conditions, the offspring of the worms with the competition ejaculated sperm that were on average 20 percent larger than the sperm of other males. In nematodes, larger sperm crawl faster and can reach the eggs sooner.
The study of sperm competition in humans, though, is fairly new. In a study (with photos!) published in 2003, researchers at the State University of New York-Albany used a variety of dildos, artificial vaginas, and a homemade semen recipe to test whether the penis might be elegantly designed not only to deposit semen in the vagina, but also to remove it. The researchers speculated that when a man has sex with a woman who has recently slept with another man, the first man's semen is pulled out with the second man's penis (because it gets caught behind the second man's coronal ridge, which separates the head of the penis from the shaft). This lends meaning to the term "sloppy seconds": Sex the second time around is sloppy, because the semen that is removed ends up, well, making a mess.
The researchers found evidence to support their hypothesis: Dildos featuring a coronal ridge, like a real penis, displaced 91 percent of semen that got there first. Dildos without ridges displaced only 35 percent. Given that chimpanzees, our closest primate relatives, do not have ridges on their penises, this is "pretty strong evidence for the fact that the human penis evolved to compete with rival male semen in the female reproductive tract," says SUNY psychologist Gordon G. Gallup, who led the study. (Chimpanzees are very promiscuous, but they appear to solve the sperm competition problem differently: They produce extremely large volumes of semen that solidify in the vagina. Like a plug.)

THEY may have had to wait 63-years to achieve it, but when referee Richard Naumovski blew the final whistle at Nijong Oval on Sunday afternoon no-one connected with Cooma Tigers cared. The scenes of joy as the club celebrated breaking their League Championship duck defied the elements on a grey, overcast day on which the rain was incessant.
Whilst the achievement of Gaby Wilk and his troops is commendable and is a testament to their modern day style of fluent, attacking football with the emphasis on goals, goals and more goals, this is a club steeped in history. Established in 1952 by the workforce of the Snowy Mountains Hydro Scheme, the Tigers remember those who preceded them.
In their clubhouse, which serves a wide selection of food and beverages for the discerning punter, there is a nod to the past as a framed newspaper cutting, yellowing in age, showcases a visit from Chelsea, now an English Premier League powerhouse of course, for a mid-sixties match with the ACT.
The League title means a lot to Cooma. Not only does it grant them entry into the National Premier Leagues Final Series and a home fixture with the Champions of New South Wales, it exercises the demons of a couple of seasons ago when they were denied the crown due to an accidental administrative error. Few would have escaped the irony of the man at the centre of the issue in 2012, Goran Josifovski, scoring the brace which effectively sealed the title. Such are the vagaries of the game.
Josifovski rolled back the years with his double, slotting home after superb approach work from Aidan Johnson, arguably the find of the season, for his first before showing the composure required to take advantage of a scintillating break at pace by Stephen Domenici to net the crucial second five minutes into the second half.
Fittingly Robbie Cattanach, always at the heart of everything positive that the Tigers create, rounded it all off in stoppage time, bulleting a header from close range past Blue Devils' stopper Ashley Collins after Jordan Lando had skinned his marker.
And whilst the goals were mostly shared amongst Josifovski, Cattanach and Domenici this season, the trio have 12 apiece heading into the final round, it was far from a three man show. At the back Wilk rotated his two fine goalkeepers, the experienced Francois Bangweni sharing duties with Jack Pettit, the latter going from wooden spoon to League Champion in the space of less than twelve months following his summer transfer from Tuggeranong United.
At the back the introduction of Cristobal Soza, returning for a second stint with the club after his successful spell in 2013, added solidity at the required time. Liam Highmore emerged as a stopper of some repute, assisted by Stefan Todoroski who started the season as a regular before being used as a back-up, whilst club legend Phil Yarnold was his usual clam and efficient self. Then there was Johnson and Iain Elliott.
Whilst Johnson was an unknown, Elliott has been around the Tigers squad for a while now. The unsung hero of the team his tireless running, energetic tackling and endless enthusiasm allows the trinity ahead of him to shine. Johnson was an inspired acquisition. His ability to overlap at pace causing endless issues throughout the season. Midfielder Dejan Santrac pulled the strings from deep, allowing Cattanach a free roaming role with Dom Collucciello once again proving to be one of the best defensive midfielders in the competition.
Lianel Lauper did much to put Cooma into their current position before departing back overseas following a nine game stint whilst Griffith forward Jordan Lando added strength, height and an eye for goal from the bench with Jordano San Martin another whose presence helped inspire those around him to greater heights.
There can be no argument that the Tigers deserved this prize. But it looked so different back in May. Cooma had lost both their opening matches of the season, narrowly 2-3 to Canberra Olympic, and far more distressingly, 3-1 at Monaro Panthers. It prompted a re-think from the Cooma management and their team responded in some style. Unbeaten in their next thirteen matches with only the FFA COE preventing them from winning ALL their fixtures, a last minute Lando equaliser earning a precious point in Round 16.
It was a stunning run and one worthy of the Champions. For Cooma the quest for Championship glory is over. They've finally reached the Holy Grail. And yet, there is more to come. A Grand Final win to add to their previous successes in 2006 and 2012 would do for starters and then, of course, there's the opportunity to be crowned Champions of Australia. Now wouldn't that be some story? And on this sort of form, who would bet against it?

Today i receive email from Gyutae. Here the full description
Hi krazl,
Thanks for voting for Winning the Web here: http://www.krazl.com/blog/?p=39
However, Tyler is being very anal about the rules and he says that technically your vote doesn't count. Could you please edit your post so it's over 300 words? You're at 281 now. That way your vote will count and you'll have a chance at $100 when the contest ends.
I'm short of 19 words. So now Tyler, I'll give you full description why i vote for Gyutae.
1. Your icon:-
Seems to cartoon"ish" with me. Maybe your target audience is children under-age, so selecting your representative is more crucial in REAL-LIFE. If you are promoting TRANSFORMERS or any NARUTO stuff, so I think your cartoon image would be suitable.
2. Promoting Gambling links on ADS
WTF man!! don't you know your hard-earn online ads will vanish instantly when you gamble. And on marketing side, you can't jeopardizes your profile by showing "I'm addicted to gambling". Maybe by creating web-pornblog, your gambling ads would be suitable there.
This two is currently enough for now. I'll insert more when Gyutae requesting more.
ROGER n Out..

Note: a dashed line (without arrowheads) between two compound names is meant to imply that the two names are just different instantiations of the same compound -- i.e. one may be a specific name and the other a general name, or they may both represent the same compound in different stages of a polymerization-type pathway. This view shows enzymes only for those organisms listed below, in the list of taxa known to possess the pathway. If an enzyme name is shown in bold, there is experimental evidence for this enzymatic activity.
|Biosynthesis → Carbohydrates Biosynthesis → Polysaccharides Biosynthesis → Glycosaminoglycans Biosynthesis
Some taxa known to possess this pathway include : Homo sapiens
Expected Taxonomic Range: Metazoa
General Background
Chondroitin sulfate is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan composed of alternating units of sulfated N-acetyl-β-D-galactosamine and β-D-glucuronate residues. The N-acetyl-β-D-galactosamine residues are substituted to varying degrees with sulfate linked to 4- and/or 6-hydroxyl positions, forming N-acetyl-β-D-galactosamine 4-sulfate, N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 6-O-sulfate or N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 4,6-bissulfate, and to a lesser extent the uronic acid residues may be substituted with sulfate at the 2-hydroxyl position forming 2-O-sulfo-β-D-glucuronate. The uronic acid residues may also be substituted with sulfate at the 3-hydroxyl positions, although this substitution is quite rare.
The following names have been used to define different sulfation states:
Chondroitin sulfate A contains β-D-glucuronate and N-acetyl-β-D-galactosamine 4-sulfate
Chondroitin sulfate C contains β-D-glucuronate and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 6-O-sulfate
Chondroitin sulfate D contains 2-O-sulfo-β-D-glucuronate and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 6-O-sulfate
Chondroitin sulfate E contains β-D-glucuronate and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 4,6-bissulfate
The term "chondroitin sulfate B" has been used in the past to refer to dermatan sulfate, but is not used any more.
The chondroitin chains vary in size up to a hundred or more disaccharide repeating units. They are usually found attached to assorted core proteins as part of a proteoglycan complex. Chondroitin sulfate is a major component of connective tissue matrix (such as skin and cartilage), but is also found on cell surface and basement membranes and in intracellular granules of certain cells. Functions in matrix locations are mainly structural, while functions in membranes are mainly as receptors.
Chondroitin sulfate chains are synthesized in situ on the protein chain. They are attached to the core protein via a specific tetrasaccharide known as the "glycoaminoglycan-protein linkage region", which is formed by sequential stepwise additions of the sugar residues to specific core proteins. The synthesis of the linkage region is described in glycoaminoglycan-protein linkage region biosynthesis, and the polymerization of the chondroitin chain is described in chondroitin biosynthesis.

This pathway describes the later modifications of the chondroitin chain. These modifications include the sulfation of the β-D-glucuronate and N-acetyl-β-D-galactosamine residues at different positions by a number of sulfotransferases with strict specificities.
The sulfation of N-acetyl-β-D-galactosamine at the 4-hydroxyl position is catalyzed by three enzymes encoded by the CHST11, CHST12 and CHST13 genes [Yamauchi00, Hiraoka00, Kang02]. The sulfation of N-acetyl-β-D-galactosamine at the 6-hydroxyl position is catalyzed by enzymes encoded by the CHST3 and CHST7 genes [Tsutsumi98, Fukuta98, Kitagawa00, Bhakta00]. Another enzyme, encoded by CHST15, catalyzes the sulfation at the C6 position of residues already sulfated at the C4 position [Ohtake01].
The C2 position of β-D-glucuronate residues is also often sulfated in a reaction catalyzed by uronyl 2-sulfotransferase, encoded by the UST gene [Kobayashi99].

A fire spread from a storage barn to a mobile home early Tuesday morning. Crews responded to a fully engulfed farm at 6905 Highway 43 South. That location is south of Greenville but not quite to Chicod.
Fire crews say while they were fighting the fire in the barn, the flames spread to the mobile home where a family lives. They had time to escape into the cold February air.
Crews say they were able to put the fire all the way out and were careful to make sure all hot spots were out. The barn and mobile home that caught fire are very close to a wooded area, and crews were concerned about wayward embers sparking a forest fire.
There is no word what started the fire in the barn.

The family's role
The family plays a major role in the breastfeeding relationship between you and your baby. One of the most precious gifts a family can give is to take care of you and encourage and support a healthy breastfeeding relationship.
For example, family members can do the many household tasks that take your energy away from nursing the baby. They can also call your health care provider or look in the phone book for community breastfeeding (lactation) resources if you have any problems breastfeeding once you get home.
There are many rewarding ways for family members to be involved in caring for the baby. Burping, diapering, playing, giving the baby massages, comforting (holding and rocking, etc.) and taking the baby for a walk are wonderful ways to help. They are also a good way to get to know the baby. Bath time is a great opportunity for eye contact and play for the whole family.
As the mother, having people help and encourage you are some of the most important things you will need to breastfeed successfully. The first few weeks of breastfeeding are important. It is a time for learning what works best for you and your baby. It is also when your milk supply is being established. It can be a very frustrating time as well. You have just gone through labor and delivery and may be physically tired and emotionally drained. You and your baby may need to try several breastfeeding positions before you find ones that work. With strong support from family, friends, health professionals and volunteer counselors, mothers who may otherwise have given up on breastfeeding during the first weeks are able to succeed.
A good support network can help in many ways, such as providing accurate information about breastfeeding and helping you resolve any problems quickly. By doing other "duties," your support network enables you to put all your energy into breastfeeding and getting to know your baby. Most important, they can help you feel confident in your ability to breastfeed your baby.
The most important support person for most new mothers is their husband or partner. Other support persons may include your mother or mother-in-law, other family members, friends who have breastfed, and health professionals, such as your physician, midwife, pediatrician or lactation consultant. Volunteer counselors from the Nursing Mothers Counsel, LaLeche League, WIC and other local breastfeeding support groups are also great resources.
How can your family and friends provide the best support for you?
The best thing they can do is to attend a breastfeeding class with you. In this class, they will learn about the benefits of breastfeeding, how to establish a good milk supply, and how to manage common breastfeeding problems. Your own mother may or may not have breastfed you. Either way, she can learn new things from a breastfeeding class, as there is a lot of new information on breastfeeding and its benefits. Sometimes even well-meaning family and friends can put your milk supply at risk by giving your baby bottles and pacifiers or advising you to limit nursing time or to "get the baby on a schedule." The more your partner and family know about breastfeeding, the more they can help you.
It is very important for your support people to provide encouragement and emotional support during the first days when you and your baby are learning how to breastfeed. Many mothers decide to give up on breastfeeding during this period. Remember that it will take time for both you and your baby to get comfortable with breastfeeding. Even if you have breastfed before, each baby is different. You and your baby will learn what works best for the two of you during the first several days or a week or two together.
Your support people can help you with other household tasks, such as cleaning, laundry, shopping and cooking. Physical fatigue from trying to do too much can affect your milk supply. Nap when your baby sleeps to help in your physical recovery. Some women feel "low" or "depressed" after delivery. Exhaustion can make this feeling worse. Let others do things for you. Only you can breastfeed your baby. You should put all of your energy into recovering from your delivery, breastfeeding and getting to know your baby.
Finally, you and your partner should both be patient about resuming intimacy. You may temporarily lose interest in having sex after giving birth. This is common and can happen whether or not you are breastfeeding. You may have concerns and negative feelings about your body after pregnancy and delivery. Breastfeeding does not "ruin your breasts." Although you may experience breast changes after childbirth, these changes were caused by pregnancy, not by breastfeeding. Breastfeeding does not make you gain weight. In fact, it may make it easier to lose your pregnancy weight when combined with proper diet and moderate exercise.

This Week
The most significant data point this week affecting U.S. markets will most likely be foreign born. Given the weight of the European decision on whether to move forward with the second bailout package for Greece or not, and the unknowns that accompany the abandonment of Greece, the step towards bailout achieved Tuesday is an important support for stocks. However, there remains a ways to go and a process to see through before the issue is cleared. If over time the Europeans determine that their efforts, which will likely be their last according to the Germans, would not be enough for Greece, there is a chance they might allow Greece to fail and decide to do so as early as March.
On the economic data front, the week presents several housing data points that are covered later in this report. Tuesday will offer the Chicago Fed's National Activity Index, and this latest report will cover the month of January. February's report showed significant improvement in the index, as it shifted to +0.17 in December, from -0.46 in November. That said, the index's three-month moving average stayed negative while gaining to -0.08. Thus, Tuesday's report offers an opportunity for some confirmation that economic growth has in fact shifted to a level that is above average historically. The gains last month were helped by improvements in production and employment data.
The week will have a lot to say about housing, after last week's news on housing starts and mortgage activity offered little to celebrate. I wrote about the housing industry in great depth last week, and I suggest readers review that work. This week brings data on Existing and New Home Sales. The Existing Home Sales report reaches the wire Wednesday morning. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg see the annual pace of sales rising modestly to 4.69 million in January, up from 4.61 million in December. That's no blockbuster improvement, but even the optimists aren't looking for significant gains until spring. New Home Sales are seen improving to an annual pace of 315K, according to economists, up from 307K. Again, not the robust growth that housing stock enthusiasts will need to keep the gains compiled since October safe.
Investors will be interested in the Consumer Confidence Index from the University of Michigan/Reuters on Friday. Doubt has been building in consumers since the latest months' retail sales data was reported. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg are only looking for a small improvement to a mark of 73.0 this month, up from 72.5 at last check.
Last week's improvement in jobless claims, taking the weekly tally to its lowest point in near four years, will have many keen to see the latest check. The four-week moving average also improved last week, but just slightly to 365,250. The weekly count was just 348K; economists are looking for 355K this week.
With gains in the Philly and Empire State Manufacturing Indexes reported last week, investors will be looking for follow through from the Kansas City Fed's report.
The week will also offer important earnings reports Tuesday from Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT), Home Depot (NYSE: HD), Barnes & Noble (NYSE: BKS), Boyd Gaming (NYSE: BYD), Cheesecake Factory (Nasdaq: CAKE), Chesapeake Energy (NYSE: CHK), Chiquita Brands (NYSE: CQB), Cracker Barrel (Nasdaq: CBRL), Danaos (NYSE: DAC), Genco Shipping (NYSE: GNK), Intuit (Nasdaq: INTU), Kraft Foods (NYSE: KFT), Macy's (NYSE: M), Medtronic (NYSE: MDT), Nabors (NYSE: NBR), RadioShack (NYSE: RSH), Saks (NYSE: SKS) and Steven Madden (Nasdaq: SHOO). Wednesday's reports include Analog Devices (NYSE: ADI), Angie's List (Nasdaq: ANGI), Boston Beer (NYSE: SAM), Chicos (NYSE: CHS), Dollar Tree (Nasdaq: DLTR), DryShips (Nasdaq: DRYS), Eaton Vance (NYSE: EV), Express Scripts (Nasdaq: ESRX), Fluor (NYSE: FLR), Garmin (Nasdaq: GRMN), Hewlett Packard (NYSE: HPQ), Jack in the Box (Nasdaq: JACK), Limited Brands (NYSE: LTD), Lithia Motors (NYSE: LAD), Mannkind (Nasdaq: MNKD), MGM Resorts (NYSE: MGM), Papa John's (Nasdaq: PZZA), Sturm Ruger (NYSE: RGR), Toll Brothers (NYSE: TOL), Yandex (Nasdaq: YNDX) and Zale (NYSE: ZLC).

Alex Smith's Stinker Number 4
In my previous post which linked today's column, I maintained that Alex Smith already has thrown three stinkers this season and that means 33 percent of his starts fall into the stinker category. Mark M helpfully pointed out that Smith's start against the Jets also was a stinker. How could I have forgotten? I mean, I was in New Jersey and covered that game. I went back to the play by play and sure enough Mark M was correct. Although… Read More »

Campaign defies expectations, challenges misperceptions of Soldier experience
December 23, 2013
By Army Marketing and Research Group
Related Links
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (Dec. 23, 2013) -- In the latest series of ads for the "Army Strong" campaign, the U.S. Army takes the audience's expectations about what the Army experience is like and turns it on its head in a surprising but realistic way.
"The goal of the 'Defy Expectations' ad series is to motivate prospects to take a deeper look into the Army," said James Ortiz, director of marketing, Army Marketing and Research Group. "By challenging current preconceived notions, we want prospects to pause, seek out our online platforms or an Army recruiter, and really consider the Army for what it is -- a unique life-changing career and education opportunity and an incredible foundation for success today and tomorrow."
The three television spots address common misperceptions about serving in the Army and Army Reserve, while highlighting the diverse professional skills and careers available in the Army and through Army training.
For example, the "Drill Sergeant" TV commercial leverages the audience's expectation of a tough drill sergeant, to then surprise them when the featured drill sergeant is equally impressed that the new recruit's goal is to learn a professional skill in addition to joining the world's greatest Army.
The ad series consists of three ads: "Drill Sergeant," "Surveyor," and "Experience of a Lifetime" -- an ad that specifically targets the Army Reserve recruiting. The ads will begin airing on television Dec. 23, and can be seen on the GoArmy YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/goarmy.
Staff Sgt. Amber Jones, an Army drill sergeant leader who appears in accompanying online advertisements in the series, is a living example of how her service as a Soldier has defied her own expectations, let alone those of her friends and family.
Jones joined the Army after graduating college and a brief career overseas as a teacher. When her teaching profession didn't work out, she re-evaluated what she wanted to do and eventually combined her interest in the Army with her love of skydiving and enlisted in 2006, as an active-duty parachute rigger.
Shortly after, her journey in the Army led her down an unexpected path.
"I didn't serve very long as a parachute rigger -- within two weeks I was selected as the Color Sergeant for the 18th Airborne Corps Color Guard, and then I became the NCOIC (non-commissioned officer in charge) of that organization," Jones said.
Her position in the color guard prompted Jones to audition for a spot in the U.S. Army Soldier Show in 2008, which she ultimately won and was given a special one-year tour of duty to travel with the show.
As a civilian, Jones enjoyed acting, performing and traveling, but Jones never expected she would experience these things while on active duty.
"On my path in the Army, I have done all of that and more," Jones said. "I have been a professional performer on stage, performing in front of thousands of people. I have traveled the world and seen [multiple] countries, and almost all 50 states."
After she finished her special tour, Jones' three-year service with the Army was complete. Following a conversation with a retention sergeant regarding a position as a drill sergeant, Jones joined the U.S. Army Reserve, attended drill sergeant school and then immediately went on active duty to train Soldiers in basic training. Based on her performance there, Jones was selected as a drill sergeant leader for the U.S. Army Drill Sergeant School.
As a drill sergeant leader, Jones has the opportunity to share her story and tell the people she is training what the Army has to offer.
"I let them know that what you think you're getting into is such a bigger organization and has so many more opportunities than just standing in those boots," Jones said. "You can really be and do anything you dreamed of outside the Army, in the Army."

It's a terrifying sight, a man coming at you with a gun.
That's just what happened Thursday night in the Pitt County town of Winterville at the Number One Chinese Restaurant. Police say a lone man entered the restaurant with a rifle, and demanded money from the register. Police used dogs to try and track him down, but didn't find him.

I really looked forward to this release as I was eagerly anticipating what direction Linux Mint was going to go especially once Ubuntu went ahead with its implementation of the Unity interface. I figured it was only a matter of time before the Mint team would decide to do something different from the past.
That decision would become even more important due to the growing fan base that Linux Mint has built up over time. A fan base that has actually in some peoples opinions eclipsed that of Ubuntu. Linux Mint has had had about two and a half times the page hits of Ubuntu and that has been true for the last three months.
I personally started using Linux Mint not long after I came across Ubuntu back in 2010. What impressed me about it the most was that it already included codecs which would allow me to play DVD's and MP3's etc. Right out of the box this was something it had over Ubuntu(even though its not like it was hard to get these things set up there). I also liked the color scheme it is very nice indeed.!
I love the fact that it includes various media players that are absent from an installation of Ubuntu with you adding them.
Recently a new version of Linux Mint has been made available, it is nicknamed Lisa and it comes with several changes. One of those changes would be the departure from the traditional Gnome 2 interfaces. In fact there would be several available such as Cinnamon, Gnome 3 and Mate. I really liked Gnome 2 so I would like to stay at least as close to it as I can get at least until I can get used to 3. In the meantime Cinnamon seems to have the most promise. For a comparison look below.
Cinnamon is #1
#2 is the default Gnome 3 (Complete with the Mint Gnome Shell Extensions)
#3 Last and not least is Mate
As you can see there are several choices which each can be manipulated for more control and lets you pick what you want, when you want. So by all means have fun and enjoy to wonder that is Linux Mint 12 also known as (Lisa)
Have a minty day!

It takes more than one funny idea to make a comedy.
Films that don't seem to grasp this truism are easy to spot—for example, 2009's Bride Wars, or last year's The Heat. At the center of these were what seemed to be a visually hilarious concept: Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson tackling each other in rage wearing wedding gowns; Melissa McCarthy teaming up with Sandra Bullock as kick-butt female cops for what came off as a second attempt at Miss Congeniality 2.
In each case, one kinda funny five-minute sequence was surrounded by a miserably implausible pile of events, characters, and weak stabs at hilarity.
Walk of Shame is no different, and possibly worse.
Directed by Steven Brill (Mr. Deeds, Drillbit Taylor), the singularly funny concept at this comedy's center is the idea of Elizabeth Banks dazed and confused, literally running around L.A. in a tight yellow dress and high heels. As far as visuals go, it's pure trailer treasure. But the entirety of the movie is a sad mess of shameless stereotypes and a script enslaved to furthering Banks' implausible plight.
Meghan Miles (Banks) is an aspiring news anchor and steady as she goes, fond of proclaiming "I'm a good girl." When her boyfriend breaks up with her, her two best girlfriends take her out for a night of drinks so she can forget about him (in essence, a female version of That Awkward Moment for the first half hour). After going home with bartender Gordon (James Marsden) in an inexplicable burst of spontaneity, she gets a phone call in the middle of the night: the job of her life awaits if she can make it to the news center in five hours. Immediately, she loses her car and her phone and is rendered helpless.
Also, Marsden is a writer of "postmodern romance" by day and a bartender by night. "I want to find beauty and praise it." Swoon.
If this film was just trying to be a more-or-less messageless spectacle, it would have done better to avoid the stereotypes. There's a creepy cab driver, a sassy black bus driver, a desperately lustful synagogue-attender, a perverted 12-year-old, tightly-wound cops, a ditsy best friend, Marsden as Prince Charming again (see Enchanted) and three hoodlumy crack dealers who are really sweethearts deep down.
There's also Gillian Jacobs (Brita Perry from Community). She's here as the other best friend, the one who answers the phone calling Banks a "dirty hooker" and saying things like "Don't be a cock blocker!" At this point, it's almost a Hollywood staple to have this best friend figure, a type most often represented by Krysten Ritter (Confessions of a Shopaholic, She's Out of My League). I've always been bothered by how admirable this character type appears to be, as she devotedly drags her friend out of the house into bold escapades (which usually end at The Club). It's a character typically called "no-nonsense," but more than anything it usually serves to make the main character look more timid and good-girly, and to aid her metamorphous into some sort of unrepressed free spirit by the end. But why is being "good" so gross?
This brings me to the most unpalatable stereotype: the usually-funny Banks is said good-girl, self-proclaimed and unashamed at first. When her manager leaves her the voicemail about the job of her life, he tells her "All that steadiness [stuff] is finally gonna pay off!" But throughout her five hours running in heels through a crack house, the hooker-ridden underbelly of town, a seedy spa, and straight through the freeway, she makes her good girlness seem pitiful and stunting to her rescue (which eventually comes from Marsden and Jacobs).
It's hardly a spoiler to say that when she's finally back in her news-anchor chair and finds herself reporting her own story, she deviates from what she's told to read to vindicate herself instead. "I shouldn't call this a walk of shame, I'm not ashamed! I don't care what people think anymore, cause that's exhausting . . . I'm not safe and I'm not reliable . . . Just be yourself!" She then gives a shout out to those lovable crack dealers, the only people in L.A. willing to loan her their phones.
Of course, her outburst leads to a new and better job offer, and she walks with Marsden down the sidewalk into an actual sunset.
This quasi-romantic unfunny comedy will probably arrive on Netflix in that section called "Films Featuring a Strong Female Lead." But the film—and the female—are far from strong. Let's leave these actors to their strengths and wait for season six of Community and Pitch Perfect 2, and forget that this one happened.
Banks' best friends talk explicitly about sex. A 12-year old and a cab driver ask Banks for sexual favors (though she does not comply). Marsden and Banks drunkenly eat pizza in their underwear together (you don't see them having sex). Characters sell crack. A bus driver uses violence to get Banks off her bus. Jacobs and the crack dealers cuss periodically. An orthodox Jew has a sexual reaction to seeing Banks stumble into his synagogue.

September 27, 2012
Rabbi David Wirtschafter, rabbi of the Ames Jewish Congregation in Iowa, will present the lecture "The Radical Notion of Rest: Reflections on the Meaning of the Sabbath" at 8 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 10, in Quad 264 at Saint John's University.
The lecture is sponsored by the Jay Phillips Center for Interfaith Learning and is free and open to the public.
"In biblical times, the idea of the Sabbath as a day of rest for all people was a revolutionary idea that challenged social orders based on the assumption that some people owned other people's time," said John Merkle, director of the Jay Phillips Center. "And the Sabbath has sustained the Jewish people and their religion throughout the centuries."
According to Wirtschafter, "the Sabbath has been one of the Jewish people's most important social and intellectual contributions to civilizations throughout the world." In his lecture at Saint John's, he will explore the meaning of the Sabbath and "how the digital age raises new challenges for the distinction between the work place and home, between labor and rest."
In addition to his rabbinic responsibilities in Iowa, Wirtschafter occasionally leads services for the St. Cloud Area Jewish Community. He was raised in Minneapolis and graduated from Brandeis University in Massachusetts with a degree in English literature, and from Hebrew Union College in New York with a master's degree in Hebrew literature.
Wirtschafter is rabbi-in-residence during the current academic year for the Jay Phillips Center, which is a joint enterprise of Saint John's University and the University of St. Thomas. As rabbi-in-residence, Wirtschafter serves as guest professor in classes at the two host universities and at the College of Saint Benedict. He also hosts Sabbath meals for students and leads trips for them to synagogues in the Twin Cities.

Soldier fills civilian gap, supports troop build-up
May 22, 2009
Story Highlights
- Obama administration indicates lack of civilian experts in Afghanistan
- Reservists may be asked to fill civilian roles in Afghanistan
- Joint Sustainment Command-Afghanistan Soldier uses civilian engineering skills to support troop build-up
As thousands of troops arrive in Afghanistan, the Obama administration expressed concern over having enough civilian experts to fill an increasing shortage in support roles.
In April the U.S. Secretary of Defense, Robert M. Gates, stated that he may ask reservists skilled in certain areas to deploy and fill these roles until replacements arrive. Months before these announcements were made by the Pentagon, the Joint Sustainment Command-Afghanistan already utilized civilian skills of some Soldiers.
Army engineer 1st Lt. Alex R. Chester III originally filled an environmental science officer role with the 143d Expeditionary Sustainment Command at Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan.
Chester, who holds Master of Science degrees in structural engineering, civil engineering and electrical engineering, has worked in the engineering field for 22 years and owns his own company, TAK Environmental Services, Inc.
"Before we moved out here, they found out that I had some engineering degrees and backgrounds," said Chester. "They asked me to be part of the torch party and come out here and fill that position and start the build-out [building] of the 143d compound."
The torch party deployed before the main body of the 143d ESC and ensured that living and work spaces were ready for the main body.
His current Army job is almost identical to his civilian job, said Chester.
"The only difference is that I don't have hazardous material to work with here," said Chester.
Approximately 60 percent of Chester's civilian job is engineering. As a part of engineering, he removed hazardous materials, performed demolitions and rebuilds.
Now that he works in an engineering role for the Army, Chester will continue in that role for the rest of his deployment.
Chester believes his civilian education and background benefits the Army.
"It helps a lot," said Chester. "In the Army you're basically training with a single [military occupational specialty]; whereas with my civilian background, I've had 22 years of work. I've been trained in a multitude of skills, and I can use those skills here."
As hundreds of Soldiers arrive at KAF weekly, Chester's expertise in engineering is an integral part of the build-up of forces in Afghanistan.
For Joint Sustainment Command-Afghanistan, Chester designs and builds. He designed the compound for the 143d ESC and will build it as well. The 143d ESC leads the JSC-A in controlling movement of supplies and personnel into and throughout Afghanistan.
"One of our issues at the 143d is power issues with the generators," said Chester. "I'm up night and day fixing the power, keeping it running. Which is exactly the kind of stuff I like to do. I love electrical stuff."
Besides working for the JSC-A, He volunteered his services as the only licensed engineer on base to Logistics Civil Augmentation Program, a U.S. enterprise that uses civilian contractors to support U.S. servicemembers.
"I work a lot with LOGCAP," said Chester. "I do a lot with electricity. They come to me for advice on what to do."
Master Sgt. Albert O. Ouellette, the 143d ESC engineer noncommissioned officer-in-charge, works with Chester building the 143d ESC compound. The two Soldiers have worked together since February. Besides building desks, walls, floors and chairs, they have worked on generators and electrical wiring.
"He's willing to help pretty much anybody," said Ouellette.
According to Ouellette, people will see Chester and stop to ask him for advice. People will bring by sketches for him to review or supply lists of materials for him to check.
Chester helps contractors by rewiring buildings and planning structures. Employing his skills, more bathrooms and showers can be built for Soldiers' living quarters. He has also utilized his abilities to build the briefing and training office, and the personnel and reception center for Soldiers arriving at KAF as part of the troop build-up. Because of Chester, buildings and tents get built faster.
Chester enjoys using his civilian proficiencies to support the troops arriving in Afghanistan.
"I think it's great, because I'm not sitting around a desk doing slideshows," said Chester. "I'm out doing hands-on work, which I like to do. It's helping the troops and helping the efforts out here that we're here to do."
Other Soldiers have noticed his work-ethics and skillfulness.
"He's willing to put out as much time necessary," said Ouellette. "He's relentless. It'll be pouring rain, or they'll call him at three in the morning to work on the generator, and he'll come on down."
After finishing the 143d ESC compound, Chester plans to visit forward operating bases, using his expertise to further support the additional troops.
"I'll be going out primarily to do some inspections and some rewiring and build-out," said Chester.
Chester continues to work with what materials are available, blending his civilian skills with his Army-trained skills to support the Joint Sustainment Command-Afghanistan as it prepares for and supports the influx of troops into Afghanistan.

NASCAR has played an unlikely matchmaker between fans and corporate America. When a NASCAR fan thinks of Wrangler, they don't just think of pants, they think of Dale Earnhardt tooling around in a yellow and blue race car. When they think of DuPont, they don't just think of adhesives and the like, the brand is also linked to the Rainbow Warrior, Jeff Gordon. The relationship between STP and Richard Petty was such that the sky blue that adorned his car became known as "Petty Blue."
Over the course of the decades, sponsors have gladly forked over big bucks to put their logos on hoods and firesuits because they knew they would somehow become bonded to the fans who supported their driver, and that in turn forged a new relationship. The next thing you know, fans are wearing jackets, caps and all manner of accessories out of loyalty to the driver, and that driver's sponsor. It's a unique marriage if you think about it. Industry found its way into the hearts of a generally individualistic group known for their fierce independence and suspicion of those wielding great money and power.
This week we learned that a brand long associated with NASCAR, Joe Gibbs Racing, and the early career of Tony Stewart, Home Depot, is pulling out at season's end. There was no dramatic conflict between sponsor and team; heck, Matt Kenseth is about as sponsor friendly as a driver can be. There's nothing that suggests outwardly that the building supply giant is in any way hurting financially. Sometimes- a relationship just runs is course; and when money's involved, there's always a curiosity about what emerging markets and untried avenues of reaching new customers. Sometimes, a love just dies; a relationship just runs its course.
Like many other uncouplings, both parties will be alright. There are innumerable ways to bring customers to your door, and no doubt, Home Depot can probably do a great deal with the money they had been spending with JGR. Fortunately for Kenseth and his fans, he already his a strong, and quite frankly, more visible relationship with Dollar General, and his organization has had no difficulty winning over new corporate partners.
When a sponsor goes away, or a driver changes teams, the fan finds himself in curious spot. Do you still continue to wear that Home Depot cap, or does he or she find themselves feeling behind the curve. Generally, the greater loyalty is actually to the driver, so in the case of Home Depot and the 20 car, perhaps this cow already left the barn five years ago. Just like they say on those Facebook relationship statuses, "it's complicated."
In the long run, the real winner is the merchandiser. Matt Kenseth fans will snap up the gear bearing his name, his number and his current/future sponsors.
