Tweet Pin It Brock Lesnar vs. Alistair Overeem Fight Video UFC 141 Main Card Alexander Gustafsson vs. Vladimir Matyushenko Fight Video UFC 141 Main Card 63 Comments « Older Comments neto December 31, 2011 **** all you bums talking shit about fitch at least he's making it happen. im not usually hyped to see his fights or anything but at least he's living his dream and is more of a man than all you pussies put together. much respect to both fighters! Reply Carface December 31, 2011 Fitch is a tough dude, he will come back strong. Hopefully he does pay some mind to the criticism though, would like to see him turn it up a notch and put some opponents away. Reply bob December 31, 2011 Mazagatti outpoints Fitch. Wow! Reply mscash December 31, 2011 Hendricks has some lefty power. I still don't understand why he fought the fight he did against Rick Story. Reply smiley January 1, 2012 I am quite sure, Neto, that you have revealed your own form of impotent rage. I did not know you were his bitch. Stand by your man! As far as making anything happen, I have yet to ever see Fitch do that. He has ENDED UP with some wins but as the talent gets more and more thick, hard workers will need more than a work ethic to be among the best in the world. Incidentally, Neto, I am quite sure that if you asked Jon himself, he would not say that the last few have gone according to any kind of dream. Reply smiley January 1, 2012 …well, maybe a nightmare. Reply YouGonnaGetGot! January 1, 2012 About ****in' time! i'm sick of Jon Bitch. All he does is play the same thing in every fight like GSP does (lay & pray). Wrestlers are the most boring "MMA fighters" on the planet. Personally i hate it, everytime someone attempts at taking me down i pick their monkey asses up and slam them on their head like Rampage did to Arona. Goodnight Bitch! (oops i mean Fitch)…wait no i mean bitch. Reply jballer January 1, 2012 Fitch fans: stop wining. there's no such thing as a lucky punch. as a former amateur boxer, i can say that. a punch was thrown by hendricks, damaged fitch, and he loses fair and square. hendricks is the better fighter. let's see more of hendricks, with some of the top guys (i would love condit-hendricks, style wise). Reply ramrod January 1, 2012 that is crazy i used to hate watching him fight but seeing him go down like that was crazy. who knows how well johny hendricks will do he is a big boy he looked like a little incredible hulk compared to fitch. Reply Dr. January 2, 2012 Lucky punch??? Umm, he threw it, aiming at Fitch's head. It hit its target, through Fitch's defense. Where is the luck? If he was aiming at his body and hit his head or if he was throwing it out to nowhere and it landed – then I could see luck. He wanted to hit him. He hit him. Success over luck. Unfortunately unsuccessful on Fitch's part (for Fitch). Reply KSL January 2, 2012 I agree that Fitch can be a bit dry, but he dominates his opponents like few others can do. I respect at least that. All we saw here is an anti-climatic finish. There's no real conclusion about who the better fight is. Reply stranglerman January 4, 2012 wow great timing jonhy !!! mmh … jon's crye after in is car. Reply AIRTIGHT January 6, 2012 Bitch move by UFC having Fitch continue fighting with no title shot after being the obvious #2 at WW for years.

…Anglican Theology The Annotated Book of Common Prayer The Apology of the Church of England Book of Common Prayer according to the Use of King's Chapel Alexander to Constantine: Archaeology of the Land of the Bible, Volume III Archaeology of … more
C. H. Spurgeon (1834–1892) is one of the church's most famous preachers and Christianity's most prolific writers. He converted to Christianity in 1850 at a small Methodist chapel and began his own ministry immediately, preaching more than 500 sermons by the age of 20. Logos has collected his sermons in The Complete Spurgeon Sermon Collection (63 vols.).
Spurgeon was the pastor of New Park Street Chapel (later the Metropolitan Tabernacle). Many of his sermons were published each week and regularly sold more than 25,000 copies in 20 languages. Spurgeon is still known as the "Prince of Preachers" by Reformed Christians and Baptists.
Spurgeon founded the Pastor's College (now Spurgeon's College) in London. Dwight L. Moody was deeply influenced by Spurgeon's preaching, and founded the Moody Bible Institute after seeing Spurgeon's work at the Pastor's College in London.
By the time of Spurgeon's death in 1892, he had preached almost 3,600 sermons and published, also under the name Charles H. Spurgeon, 49 volumes of commentaries, sayings, devotions, and more. The Charles Spurgeon Collection (149 vols.) contains over 3,550 sermons from this gifted speaker and leader and his most-loved works like The Treasury of David, Lectures to My Students, The Sword and Trowel, and dozens of other volumes. Also available from Logos is Spurgeon Commentary: Galatians, and the Spurgeon Sermon Upgrade Collection (2 vols.).

Multiple secret images sharing scheme deals with the problem that how to secretly distribute several secret images among a group of participants at the same time, and reconstruct these secret images by collecting the shared images or the shares held in qualified subsets. Many studies explore the technique about the secret image sharing, but most of them only can be applied in special access structure or single gray-level image. Shyu and Chen proposed multiple secret images sharing scheme for general access structure in 2008. Lee and Juan solved the insecure situation of scheme in 2009. However, the computation of Shyu and Chen's scheme and Lee and Juan's scheme still can be reduced, and they both do not achieve the property of multi-use. Therefore, this paper uses two-variable one-way hash function to design a multiple secret images sharing scheme for general access structure, and makes the cost of computation and capability are better than the previous results. Besides, this paper also improve Chien and Chen's scheme held in 2006.

One day in Middle school during my P.E. class, we were playing softball and a classmate of mine teased me a lot for how I wasn't able to play well. (Even though I played it as a kid, though that doesn't mean I should be good at it anyways) And no one wanted me on their team, I ended up going to the bleachers a bit away from the others and started sobbing and feeling worthless. A few of my friends came over and asked me what was wrong but I wouldn't tell them, but I looked up and a Blue Jay flew by, I stared at it as it landed a bit further away and then started cheering up immediately.
I don't really know why, it just happened.
Also, Blue Jays are beautiful.

text: SANYO Turns Loose Hard Core Mobile Phone By George Walsh28 March 2007 19:54 - Source: Tom's Hardware | B 0 comment Tags : Mobile Cell Phones While this phone may be targeted at outdoor operations where a typical cell phone might be damaged, it also might be great for those of you who drop and destroy one or two cell phones a year. SANYO today announced the ultra-rugged SCP-7050, the first SANYO phone that adheres to Military Standard 810F for dust, shock and vibration. In addition to applications for business users with mobile field operations such as those in construction, maintenance and other tough environments, SANYO says the SCP-7050 SANYO is also well-suited for outdoor enthusiasts due to its textured anti-slip rubber grip that wraps around the back and sides of the phone, offering a good gripping surface and added protection. The SCP-7050 also supports GPS-based Java applications and Bluetooth wireless technology. The SCP-7050 by SANYO will be available beginning in early April through Sprint retail channels. Its Suggested retail price is $149.99 with a two-year subscriber agreement. The SCP-7050 offers autonomous GPS that allows location data to be captured even when the user has taken the phone off the wireless network. In addition, Java MVM allows the phone to run multiple Java applications simultaneously. The combination of Java MVM and location based GPS allows the phone to support navigation, tracking and management applications. The phone has been designed so that it is easy to use and view even when using gloves or in bright outdoor conditions. The four external side buttons allow access to the speakerphone, call lists that are displayed on the outside LCD, and volume control. The one-inch outside LCD is high-contrast to allow better visibility in outdoor environments. Once open, the phone reveals a keypad with large raised blue-backlight keys and a two-inch color internal screen. With an optional USB cable, Sprint Vision Connection Manager software, and the appropriate Sprint service plan, the SCP-7050 can be used as a modem for a laptop PC.

This brief investigates the relationship between immigration and the decline in both the overall number and share of native-born workers in the low-wage and lower-skilled labor force.
This fact sheet briefly summarizes the background and implications of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services' proposal to increase immigration fees during the summer of 2007.
Securing the Future seeks to define what policymakers and scholars mean by integration while attempting to sketch the contours of U.S. integration policy. The volume reviews evidence of immigrants' integration by examining the progress of the second generation, as well as trends in education, health, the workforce, and citizenship.
¿Qué clase de política y sistema de inmigración podría aprovechar los beneficios de la inmigración para avanzar los intereses nacionales de EE.UU. en el siglo XXI? El Grupo de Trabajo sobre Inmigración y el Futuro de los Estados Unidos fue convocado por el Instituto de Política Migratoria (MPI) debatir este tema.
This fact sheet examines demographic and labor market characteristics of Mexican-born workers in the United States and compares them to those of all foreign-born as well as native-born U.S. workers. The report focuses on workers age 16 and over who participated in the U.S. civilian labor force in 2006.
This report provides an overview of immigration to the United States based on Fiscal Year 2005 data released by the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Immigration Statistics in 2006.
This report discusses the major features of the proposed 2006 DREAM Act and provides MPI's estimates of the number of young persons likely to be eligible for immigration relief if the DREAM Act is signed into law.
For an increasing number of scholars, international migration has undergone a transformation particularly in the last decade or so. Although circular migration's impact on development is far from settled, a review of the current literature suggests increasing optimism about its developmental potential.

Target rolled out its Missoni line, and frugal fashionistas stormed Target stores — scooping up the $55 dresses.
DAVID GREENE, host: And our last word in business today, is Missoni for the masses. In the spotlight of New York's Fashion Week, Target saw an opportunity. The retailer approached the high-end Italian design house Missoni with the idea of making a lower priced line of clothing and accessories to launch during Fashion Week. Missoni's colorful zigzag knit dresses - at least I'm told - normally sell at places like Saks Fifth Avenue for maybe $1,000 or more. A Missoni designer, a granddaughter of the founder, told The Wall Street Journal she had actually never even set foot in a Target before this collaboration.
STEVE INSKEEP, host: Yesterday, Target rolled out its Missoni line, and frugal fashionistas across the country stormed Target stores - clearing shelves of the bargain couture. David, I wondered where you were for four hours yesterday.
GREENE: You found out now.
INSKEEP: Now we know. They nabbed dresses for $55 - it looks great on you, by the way...
GREENE: Appreciate that, Steve.
INSKEEP: ...and ran off in trendy ballet flats that sells for hundreds of dollars, normally, for a mere 30 bucks.
GREENE: The demand was so strong that Target's website was shut down for much of the day, which made things difficult to keep buying. Steve, some buyers don't even plan to wear these items. Many of the goods are already on eBay for several times the Target price.
INSKEEP: Oh.
GREENE: And that's the business news on MORNING EDITION from NPR News this morning. I'm David Greene.
INSKEEP: And I'm Steve Inskeep.

From the pictures, it looks very great, but you haven't seen the Nicaragua when I was down there from the looks of it, but great book.

After much pleading, begging, pity and a sense of moral justice, TheHero arrives, determined to save the townspeople from a terrible fate at the hands of a devious villain. Everything's looking all right, everyone is happy and then-
Bam. Betrayed. The villain comes out of nowhere, captures The Hero and tells the townspeople "You have done well to betray this interloper, for after your plans failed I would have destroyed all of you". Note that the villain will probably still follow through with the original plans [[RewardedAsATraitorDeserves anyway]], the complicity of the townspeople notwithstanding.
'''What The Hell, Townspeople?''' is meant to be the reaction of the audience to this situation as opposed to any general character. The idea is that the ostensibly good townspeople are basing their long-term survival plan on screwing over the only people who would actually be willing to be nice to them.
See also: ApatheticCitizens and LesCollaborateurs. If they never liked the hero in the first place, they're probably AllOfTheOtherReindeer. If someone [[IThoughtItMeant actually says]] "what the hell, townspeople?", see ShamingTheMob.
[[folder:{{Anime}} and {{Manga}}]]
* Partially justified in ''Manga/SoulEater''. While the village that [[spoiler: demon sword Masamune was possessing prompting everyone to attack Black Star, and that everyone in the village had a personal grudge against the Star Clan,]] it didn't warrant the little kid smacking Black Star on the head with a branch of bamboo.
* ''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena'': So tell me, oh townspeople who are regularly saved by Prince Dios -- exactly ''why'' does it seem like a good idea to work your shining prince to the dying point, and then get all murdery when his own sister decides he needs ''a vacation''?
* ''Manga/{{Trigun}}'':
** After learning that Vash the Stampede is in their town, they attempt to arrest him for the 60 billion double dollar bounty on his head after he saves them from asshole mutant bounty hunters. Their justification is that they need the money to repair the BlackBox that keeps their town alive. Not to mention turning him in to the authorities would get the [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Humanoid Typhoon]] out of their town, which [[CrapsackWorld has had enough problems]] already, thank you very much.
** And from the manga, the place where he saves them from ying-yang themed gangsters, but [[ArtificialHuman stops a bullet with a 'feather' from his arm]], and is therefore [[BullyingTheDragon stoned]] for [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer being a monster]]. Wolfwood accurately describes them as assholes.
* In ''Manga/OdeToKirihito'', Kirihito suffers serious discrimination because a disease has turned him into a [[PettingZooPeople petting zoo person]]. At one point, he is able to persuade some villagers to leave him and another doctor in a cave with a village elder alone for two days so they can operate on him and save his life. Some of the younger villagers decide to break into the cave early and kill him anyway. [[spoiler: The elder overexerts himself in anger ordering the ruffians to stop being dumbasses; Kirihito had just saved his life. He dies.]] The warnings of the other villagers and the other doctor apparently weren't good enough.
* The whole plot of ''Manga/ViolinistOfHameln'' wouldn't have happened if it weren't for this trope. [[spoiler: After all, it was the [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer rampant]] [[MoralEventHorizon discrimination]] they suffered in Anthem and the villagers selling them out to [[TheDragon Hell King Bass]] that ended with Pandora in a crystal and Hamel his jaded, traumatized self after [[SuperpoweredEvilSide accidentally killing everyone]] except for Raiel.]]
* ''Manga/OnePiece'':
** The first Grand Line island the crew visits seems friendly and is known for taking pirates in and setting them up right for the journeys ahead. Turns out every one of them is a bounty hunter working for Baroque Works.
** In a flashback it is revealed the villagers of [[spoiler:Koala's hometown betrayed Fisher Tiger when he brought the girl safely home. At least part of the reason was so the Marines would ignore their knowledge that Koala was an escaped slave. Though this made more ironic since "slavery" was supposed to have been abolished centuries ago]].
* In Creator/JunjiIto's manga ''Manga/HellstarRemina,'' a scientist who discovered a new planet names it after his only daughter, Remina, causing her to become a celebrity and have numerous fanclubs and admirers (Remina herself [[IJustWantToBeNormal wishes they wouldn't pay so much attention to her because of that, though.]]) Then, when it's revealed that Planet Remina is hurtling towards Earth with no chance of anyone's survival, the entire city of Tokyo, and even the world, turns against the innocent teenager, finally tying her to a cross and trying to kill her--''all because they share the same name.''
* The townspeople of The City By The Lake episode of ''Anime/GenesisClimberMospeada'' and its ''{{Anime/Robotech}}'' counterpart. Stig/Scott, Ray/Rand and Mint/Annie all call them out on it, but the townspeople reply [[JustifiedTrope they actually have a good reason]]: aside for the people of Mars Base/Robotech Expeditionary Force being hated for perceivedly abandoning Earth to the invaders when they [[TacticalWithdrawal retreated from a losing battle to rebuild and fight back later]], the Inbit/Invid have the habit of leaving people alone as long as they don't fight back and [[DisproportionateRetribution flatten any place with a freedom fighter plus the area around it]], so any member of LaResistance is seen as a danger for those who don't fight.
* In ''Anime/FullmetalAlchemist'', the townspeople of Xenotime treat Ed and Al like utter shit, believing them to be imposters after Russell and Fletcher Tringham steal their identities. It goes so far that at one point a shopkeep ''refuses to sell the real Al medicine that he was trying to purchase for a sick little girl that lives in town''. This only occurs in the anime version, as in the original Light Novel story although they still believe Russell and Fletcher to be the real deal they also believe Ed and Al to coincidentally be alchemists with the [[NamesTheSame exact same names]] and treat them a lot less harshly.
* ''Manga/BlueExorcist'': In order to save his friends from Amaimon, TheHero Rin has to reveal his demonic powers and heritage. How do his friends react? They ignore him. One actually calls them out for the treatment Rin receives.
* In ''Anime/ValvraveTheLiberator'' Arus negotiates with the Jior students to give them Valvrave pilots who have been fighting all alone to protect Jior right after Arus gunned down most of them. What does Jior do with their heroes? [[ShaggyDogStory Discriminate, shoot one of them and sell him out.]]
* In the final story arc of ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', Goku and Vegeta are begging the people of Earth to give energy so they can finally kill Majin Buu. The people of Earth don't listen to them and go about their lives as normal, despite being killed by Buu and then wished back. With Vegeta, it's more understandable since he was a JerkAss when he demanded their energy, but Goku asked much nicer and several people knew who he was, but only the people Goku directly saved gave him anything. It took Mr. Satan yelling at them to get them to cooperate, and by that point, Goku had snapped and outright called the Earthings morons.
* The citizens of the ''{{Marvel}}'' universe. Over and over again. Especially where [[ComicBook/{{X-Men}} mutants]] or SpiderMan are concerned, but almost everyone gets this at one time or another.
** Super hero comics in general. All it takes is one single incident with a Shapeshifter, MasterOfDisguise, or an Android copy for the entire city to be on a manhunt. It's even more jarring when such villains make a return and no person suspects the rogue gallery.
* One ScoobyDoo comic has a recurring antagonist in the comics called the Grey One cover Shaggy and Scooby with a hologram so they look like monsters, causing the paranoid townsfolk to try to burn them at the stake. When Velma and Scrappy try to defend them the townsfolk decide to say "screw it" and burn them too just for the hell of it. After Fred and Daphne manage to save the day, it's '''Scrappy''' of all characters who actually voices the reader's reaction here by pointing out how close they came to killing innocent people and how nonchalantly they'd just been about it.
* In ''ComicBook/SupermanEarthOne'' pretty much the entire world's military considers Superman a threat, and when Zod shows up and asks them not to interfere decides to go ahead and let Zod to kill Superman. Refreshingly, when he wins, he goes to the UN to make a brief statement about how incredibly stupid and short-sighted this policy was, starting thusly:
--> '''Superman:''' What the HELL were you THINKING?!
* {{Justified}} in [[ComicBook/DisneyDucksComicUniverse Paperinik stories]] (including ''ComicBook/PaperinikNewAdventures''): Paperinik started out as a formidable criminal capable of waltzing in Scrooge's home and steal ''the money-filled mattress he was sleeping on'', and even as a superhero [[UnscrupulousHero he actually does it because criminals piss him off]] and still maintains a rather sadistic streak (he even ''lynching mobs'' on two different occasions), so him committing large scale crimes is actually believable. Being rather GenreSavvy, Paperinik has once faked a memory loss and single-handedly ''stole away half the city'' to track down the elusive boss of a large criminal gang (once the deed was done, he gave back everything).
[[folder:Fan Works]]
* In Fanfic/EquestriasFirstHuman, a human named Connor ends up in Ponyville, and the townspeople treat him the way that they treated Zecora and avoid him. Connor's good deeds don't change anything, only now the ''Mane 6'' become pariahs for associating with him, and town doesn't even bother to help them plan a festival for the Princess. The final straw comes when [[spoiler: after Connor saves Princess Celestia's life, the guards (who are actually working for the BigBad) beat him up, and everypony (except Fluttershy) just watches it happen (In the original, the townspeople just laughed at his crush on Fluttershy.) Connor storms off in anger, and Princess Celestia is ashamed of the way Ponyville treated Connor. It is subverted later on when Connor and Spike save the whole village from the BigBad, and the townspeople apologize.]]
* ''FanFic/RosarioVampireBrightestDarkness Act III'': After being blackmailed by Kano in chapter 30 on top of all of the other mistreatment from the other students, Felucia justifiably has this reaction. By the next chapter, she's so sick of the other students' harassment that she actually suggests to the others that they ''let'' Kuyou kill everyone.
-->'''Felucia''': ''These'' are the creeps we're protecting from Kuyou? Seriously?
[[folder:Films -- Animated]]
* Most of the townspeople in ''Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast'' bar Belle, Maurice, and the bookseller seem rather unpleasant, and at the climax every last one of them apparently becomes a henchman to [[BigBad Gaston]].
* The Nicelanders in ''WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph''. Even though they're aware they're in a game where Ralph is the assigned antagonist and they couldn't function without him, they still treat him like dirt and try to keep him out of everything, even when he makes a clumsy but sincere attempt to befriend them.
[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
* In ''Film/TheMagnificentSeven'', a small group of the villagers betray the Seven and allow Calvera into the village after they learn that Calvera cannot simply move on and raid another village, which was what they had hoped would happen when he discovered that the village had hired gunmen. The Seven [[DeconstructedTrope understand their reasoning]], even defending their actions when their children denounce them as cowards, and still return to save the village after Calvera released them far from the territory.
* This is of course based on ''Film/SevenSamurai'' which has a similar twist. The samurai, after saving the village, are given nothing more than millet, while the beautiful women of the village gorge themselves on rice, and the guy who loves one of the townsfolk ends up alone.
* Done in ''Film/CaveDwellers'', where the hero Ator promises to help a village fight the local snake cult so they can stop their young people from being claimed as {{Human Sacrifice}}s... only to be drugged and tied up, since the villagers think that offering the snake cultists Ator will buy them off. Naturally it doesn't work.
* ''Film/HighPlainsDrifter'': [[spoiler:This happens ''before'' the beginning of the movie and is the [[BackStory basis for everything that happens during it]].]]
** [[spoiler: Including the subversion that happens before we actually learn this; after seemingly teaching the townsfolk to fight back against the evil bandits threatening the town, the 'hero' betrays the ''townspeople'' by abandoning them, letting the bandits have the run of the town before he returns to take his own vengeance on them.]]
* ''{{Dogville}}''. The point that regular, small town, hard working Townsfolks are just as horrible people as anyone else is the whole point of the movie. Played with in that the townfolks' poor treatment of Grace is what ''causes'' the villain to kill them all. At Grace's request.
* ''Film/HighNoon'': Marshal Kane is trying to save the town from a gang of criminals and the rest of the ungrateful townspeople don't lift a finger to help him. In fact, some support the gang being allowed to run the town. [[spoiler: At the end, after beating Miller and his gang, Kane throws down his badge and walks away without a word.]]
* ''Film/{{Outland}}'' is basically ''HighNoon'' InSpace! but in this case the deep-space mining colony is run from Earth by a CorruptCorporateExecutive which pretty much ensures that the Marshal's efforts aren't probably going to have much long-term effect.
* ''Film/VanHelsing'': During the fight with Dracula's brides when Van Helsing first arrives in Romania, Van Helsing manages to kill one of said brides. How do the townsfolk thank him? By ganging up on him with TorchesAndPitchforks with the intent to kill; apparently, they're fine with the vamps killing someone once a month for food, but now that one of Dracula's brides is dead, the others will come for revenge and kill them all. Anna is considerably more respectful.
* ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'': Bane's takeover of Gotham works with this trope, and he exposes [[Film/TheDarkKnight the truth about Harvey Dent]] to justify releasing all of the Blackgate inmates.
* ''Film/TransformersAgeOfExtinction'': After the Autobots spent the first movie trilogy protecting the humans from the Decepticons, how do the humans thank them? By hunting them down and harvesting their corpses for spare parts.
* ''Film/BlazingSaddles'': Newly Assigned Sheriff Bart arrives in Rock Ridge and is met which scorn and racist taunts. when MiniBoss Mongo arrives they rush to him for help. He saves the Day and is given a Pie by a Old Lady who thanks him but tells him to have the good taste not to tell anyone. (this of course is part of the satire of the movie)
%% The following {{Zero Context Example}}s have been commented out and copied to Discussion. Please don't add them back unless you also add context to show how they fit this trope.
%% ''Literature/ASeriesOfUnfortunateEvents''. The Vile Village is a great example.
* In the ''Literature/LegendsOfDune'' prequel, ''The Machine Crusade'', a village of Zenshiites on the planet IV Anbus decide to obstruct the plans of a group of League soldiers, trying to keep a mechanized army from passing through their canyon village on its way to the capital. They don't believe that this will spare them from harm by the machines, though. The fact that their people have been traded as slaves in League worlds for years just makes them so angry that they're not willing to help the League Armada under any circumstances. This leads to [[spoiler:their capital and holy city being destroyed by the Armada in an effort to finish off the machines before they can take over the planet]], and a lot of BlackAndGrayMorality on both sides.
* ThursdayNext runs into one of these situations on her practical exam- her task is to fix the plot of a relatively unknown children's book to make it less depressing, but she ends up being caught and forced to marry a background character, because the townspeople don't have the luxury of feeling natural emotions in their story, so they plan to kill Thursday to get high off the rush of witnessing a wedding and then killing the bride. Thursday manages to talk them out of it.
* ''Literature/TheUnderlandChronicles'':
** The Regalians still scorn Gregor even though he's saved their lives multiple times.
** The ending of ''Gregor and The Code of Claw'' has Gregor [[spoiler:tell off what amounts to the ENTIRE Underland. The Bane's dead and the humans and rats are ready to live together peacefully. Luxa then announces that the rats are being sent to live in the most hostile region of the Underland. Ripred isn't amused, and both sides are ready to go to war right then and there. Gregor tells all of them off not just for being so stupid after both sides have been devastated, but also for Ripred having come all this way with them and Luxa treating him like dirt.]]
[[folder:Live Action TV]]
* The ''Series/{{Firefly}}'' episode where Simon and River are kidnapped by a town in need of a doctor. He hates being kidnapped and calls the townsfolk on it, but grows to like being able to help the townsfolk and having a stable place to house River. However, they become convinced she's a "witch," and plan to burn her at the stake. Nothing Simon says will stop them, so he gets up on the stake too. ''And they were getting ready to burn them both!'' The same people who went to great lengths to get a doctor were perfectly willing to go back to their high mortality rates if it meant burning a mentally damaged girl.
** The reason is that [[spoiler: River is a {{Telepath}} and can and had already started to expose their TownWithADarkSecret status. There is a reason they have such a high mortality rate.]]
* Invoked on ''Series/{{Angel}}'', in the second-season episode "Are you now or have you ever been?" In the '50s flashbacks, he's getting ready to summon and kill the paranoia demon that's been affecting everyone in the hotel, when the girl he's been helping most turns an angry mob on him to divert their attention away from her. This was justified by the fact that it was a ''paranoia'' demon, and Angel leaving them all to their fates is presented as a failure on his part.
* The people of Nettlestone are invited to Series/RobinHood's birthday party, but decide to send the Sheriff's mercenaries along instead. Even though this would give the Sheriff completely free rein to indulge in his hobbies of robbing, starving, torturing and exploiting them without interference from Robin's gang.
* In ''Series/StargateSG1'' and ''Series/StargateAtlantis'', just about every Civilization Of The Week they try to save from the Goa'uld, the Ori, the Wraith, or for that matter from anything. Every one that doesn't fit this ends up home to a few LesCollaborateurs. Often, the planets have exactly two notable characters: a ReasonableAuthorityFigure who supports the heroes and an EvilChancellor who wants to follow this trope, sometimes even going behind the Reasonable Authority Figure's back to do so.
** Of note are the villagers in ''Atlantis'' who capture Ronon to hand him off to the [[OurVampiresAreDifferent Wraith]], hoping that the Wraith would let them be. Needless to say, they were all slaughtered for their trouble. Slightly justified in that Ronon inadvertently brought the Wraith to their village during his time as a Runner.
* The first track of Music/TheProtomen's first eponymous album describes Protoman fighting for humanity, with the oppressed citizens rallying behind him. Until Protoman begins to be overcome, at which point none of the people come to his aide at the risk of their own lives. Light gives a WhatTheHellTownspeople summation to Megaman about it, but he doesn't take the lesson and goes off to fight. The entire fifth track is one long track dedicated to [[spoiler:the still alive Protoman]] giving an increasingly cynical WhatTheHellTownspeople. And they prove him right.\\
Act II elaborates: Years ago, Dr. Light was framed for the murder of his girlfriend, Emily Stanton, by Dr. Wily. The townspeople believe Wily, and when Light is eventually found innocent, they see it as their justice system being corrupt and attempt to lynch him. Wily even lampshades this, mentioning that all he had to do was point a finger at Light to get the people to turn on him.
[[folder:Video Games]]
* In ''Franchise/FireEmblem: [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTellius Path of Radiance]]'', Ike and company are in a port town in Crimea, which has recently been conquered by the Daein Kingdom. One of their laguz allies is accidentally unhooded, and the racist townspeople promptly sound the alarm to local Daein (again, ''invading'') forces. Not quite done screwing over the heroes, a couple of those same townspeople tell the Daein soldiers where the Greil Mercenaries have gone after the mission, and are RewardedAsATraitorDeserves.
* In ''VideoGame/{{Overlord}}'', the people of [[strike:Bree]] Spree are very quick to begin praising the massive Khan over you, despite you having rescued many of their people and (maybe) not murdering them. Of course, once you defeat Khan's forces, they're instantly begging for your forgiveness.
** Of course being an EvilOverlord, you could have been bullying and killing them this whole time.
* In ''VideoGame/MegaManZero 4'', the refugees of [[NewEden Area Zero]], the Caravan, refuse the aid offered by LaResistance and Zero; a textbook example of an UntrustingCommunity. Even when Area Zero came under attack by the forces of the BigBad and Zero mounted a rescue, the Caravan's leader, Neige, attempts to stop the fighting by [[WhatTheHellHero chewing out both sides (mostly directed at Zero and Craft, the Big Bad's general) for the atrocities that they have done throughout the series.]] Craft kidnaps Neige shortly afterwards, and the Caravan refuses to go rescue her, thinking that bringing Neige back would only ignite the war again. Cue Zero chewing ''them'' out:
-->'''Zero''': You're just going to abandon her? She put her life on the line to stop the fight and save you and your settlement!
-->'''NPC''': What of it!? If we save her, we might get attacked again!
-->'''Zero''': [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech Look at you all cowering in fear. You're no different than the humans in Neo Arcadia...]]
-->'''NPC''': H-how dare you!
-->'''Zero''': If you're going to be like that, why even put your lives at stake to leave Neo Arcadia in the first place?
* In ''SuikodenIII'', the ApatheticCitizens of Le Buque treat [[TheQuisling Franz]] and the other Mantor trainers like crap because he's trying to earn them second-class citizenship in Harmonia, who conquered their clan fifty years prior. After [[spoiler: Harmonia withdraws their forces]], their scorn gives way to outright violence and they threaten to mob Franz and the others. Geddoe punches out one of them.
* A version of this happens in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII''. Instead of the hero arriving, when the "villain" Consul from the conquering Archadean empire arrives in the newly conquered Dalmasca, the gathered crowd boos him. He gives a little speech that amounts to, "I'm really not a bad guy, and I just want to get along with all of you and be a good ruler, so let's not worry about who conquered whom." They cheer him. Vaan and Penelo share a [[WhatTheHellTownspeople what the hell, fellow oppressed citizens??]] moment.
* ''VideoGame/DragonQuestIX''. Wormwood Creek. Great job [[spoiler: betraying your Guardian Angel to TheEmpire]], guys. Way to create a [[spoiler: WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds]].
* ''HarvestMoon'': In a case where it's impossible do anything to avoid displeasing them, the townspeople will get mad at you for your animals dying of old age regardless of how well you took care of them.
* ''VideoGame/DragonQuestVII'' has a couple of examples:
** In Krage, all but one of the villagers actively resist your attempts to save them. {{Justified|Trope}} in that the [[BrainwashedAndCrazy whole lot believe]] [[CardCarryingVillain they're the Demonlord]].
** In Loomin, after [[DoomMagnet surviving a few other crises]], the townsfolk decide to try and get rid of Sieble's [[PetBabyWildAnimal pet larval hellworm]] Chibi. When their leader actually ''hits'' Sieble, Chibi naturally gets upset and growls, which they decide [[InsaneTrollLogic obviously means it's a ravenous beast and must be killed]].
** In Labres, the mob throws you and the recently orphaned Lucas to the monsters because you tried to stop them from lynching a monster in priest's clothing... who wasn't doing anything to harm them... [[spoiler: and was actually the kindly priest, who struck a deal with the monsters' ringleader to live out the rest of his days as a monster in exchange for sparing the town [[ExactWords for as long as he lives]].]] Their present-day descendants don't turn out so hot, either, [[WrittenByTheWinners rewriting the past]] instead of learning from it.
* ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoSanAndreas''. The townspeople are bizarrely convinced that the protagonist is a diaper-wearing hobo of some sort. No, really.
* ''[[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim Skyrim]]''. You just saved the townspeople from a dragon by using your Dragon Shouts. Surely they'll all fall on their knees, thanking you, right? Wrong. At best they'll stand around gawking you, if not then the guards will warn you to stop Shouting because it puts people on edge ([[SkewedPriorities as if the dragon you just took down wouldn't]]). At worst, you'll actually be prosecuted for whatever damage you may have done whilst trying to take the dragon down.
* As revealed in the backstory for ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaSymphonyOfTheNight'', just when {{Dracula}} appears to have redeemed himself from the whole Vlad the Impaler bit via ThePowerOfLove, some jackasses from a nearby village [[BurnTheWitch burn his beautiful wife alive]]. For being a ''healer''. A DespairEventHorizon crossing later, and an OmnicidalManiac was born.
* ''[[VideoGame/{{inFamous}} inFAMOUS 1]]'' has an InUniverse example right at the beginning, if the player has been [[KarmaMeter good]]. The Voice of Survival appears on TV and blames Cole for [[ApocalypseHow the Ray Sphere Blast]] (Which he did set off, though Cole had no idea what would happen when he opened that package), prompting the townspeople to start throwing rocks at him and yell at him... right after he's just retrieved a bunch of food crates from gang members and has willingly given them up to the civilians... in the middle of a quarantine.
-->'''Cole:''' I already gave you the food, didn't I?! Leave me alone!
* In ''VideoGame/LufiaCurseOfTheSinistrals'', once Daos appears, he announces to the world that anyone who bows to him will be spared and anyone who helps Maxim will be destroyed. After that, the people of every single town refuse to help Maxim or even let them and his companion enter. Their fear is justified; Daos's power as the Sinistral of Fear induces terror in the hearts of people, he demonstrates his power with a massive explosion, and he sends monsters to every town Maxim tries to enter. [[spoiler:It takes the people Maxim has met along the way to convince the world to stand up against Daos.]]
* Taken to it's logical conclusion in ''VideoGame/LiveALive'', where [[spoiler: after being tricked into killing the king by the Demon King, Oersted is immediately accused of ''being'' the Demon King and exiled. After a few more traumatic events, Oersted simply gives up on humanity, [[ThenLetMeBeEvil becomes the Demon King Odio for real]], and slaughters every other human on the continent before setting out to do the same in all the other chapters.]]
[[folder:Web Animation]]
* In ''WebAnimation/XRayAndVav, once [[spoiler:The Mad King]] escapes from the psychiatric hospital he'd been confined to since his defeat in Season One, he easily takes back Monarch Labs, is welcomed back into the city and he openly touts Mogar as the real hero the city deserves. This cheeses off our heroes - X-Ray more than Vav - but their own ineptitude makes it hard for them to prove he's a bad guy.
* Done in [[http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=040608 this]] ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance'' strip. Particularly notable since the townspeople in this case are [[PureIsNotGood completely pacifist]].
-->'''Ambassador:''' They've given us an offer. If we bring them the one known as Torg they will leave our world in peace. And since peace is the ultimate manifestation of good, I'd like to implore everyone to form unruly mobs and send this innocent man into the demons' eternal deathgrip as soon as possible!
* Subverted in ''Webcomic/DominicDeegan''; when the people of Lynn's Brook get all TorchesAndPitchforks-y on Dominic, Luna and Greg, he calls them out on their asinine behavior...which the mob then ''tries to justify''. They formed a mob in the first place because Luna summoned a threatening illusion after they threw rocks at her (minor facial deformity) and Greg (gimp leg) for their disabilities.
[[folder:Western Animation]]
%% The following {{Zero Context Example}}s have been commented out and copied to Discussion. Please don't add them back unless you also add context to show how they fit this trope.
* ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' might as well be the king of this trope. It's amazing how stupid and uncaring the citizens of Bikini Bottom can be. One example comes into mind is from the episode "The Sponge Who Could Fly". The citizens mock [=SpongeBob=] for his dreams to fly and when [=SpongeBob=] calls them out on it, they tell them about their dreams and asks him what makes him so special, then suddenly chase him off of a cliff, with one fish saying "Good riddance, dreamer!". Then after [=SpongeBob=] is able to fly, they all make him do ridiculous tasks that ''would not even require flight''. After [=SpongeBob=] gets away, they all chase him down insisting that he owes them favors, when he most obviously does '''not'''.
%% * The infamous AIDS episode of ''WesternAnimation/CaptainPlanet''.
* In one ''{{WesternAnimation/Superfriends}}'' cartoon, a planet petitions the heroes for help. They arrive and seemingly save the day, a banquet is held in their honor - and the denizens then trap them by [[TakenForGranite turning them into stone statues]], promptly handing them over to Darkseid afterward. (Apparently they never got the memo that these guys beat Darkseid, seriously, like every week.) Completely out of left field, Darkseid makes up an extremely flimsy technical excuse to blow the planet up anyway. [[spoiler: The aliens realize the errors of their ways and release the Superfriends]]. Like that needed spoilers.
* In an episode of ''SamuraiJack'', Jack agreed to help a group of frog-people, but it turned out they planned on handing him over to Aku in exchange for being left alone. In a [[SarcasmMode surprise twist]], Aku went back on the deal.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' episode "Snowblind", the people act like this to the Russian super soldier, Red Star, whose dark side is terrorizing them. Starfire calls them out on it by pointing out that it was the experiments in which they themselves partook that caused everything. After this they stop acting like assholes.
* The ''[[WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfTheGalaxyRangers Galaxy Rangers]]'' episode "Chained." Ozark is an isolationist colony in the middle of nowhere. The Black Hole Gang proceed to behave badly and torch a good section of the town. Shane rides in with local ActionGirl Annie and save one of the town elders from a burning building. After the dust-up is over, the townsfolk hand Shane over to the gang. Needless to say, Annie's pissed off and pretty much shouts the trope at them.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': Springfield has been guilty of this several times, the most infamous occasion being "[[MoralEventHorizon The Boys Of Bummer]]". In that episode, this was lampshaded when it was noted that Springfield had been labeled as the Meanest City in America.
* ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'':
** An UngratefulBastard variation in one season 2 episode, [[AntiVillain Zuko]] saves an Earth Kingdom town from a bunch of so-called soldiers who are just bullying thugs who go well past the MoralEventHorizon. Because he revealed that he was Prince Zuko of the Fire Nation, the townspeople immediately turn on him, and drive him away.
** Aang and co frequently face some sort of stupidity or hostility from the towns they visit, but usually they come round by the end of the episode.
* The first ChristmasEpisode of ''WesternAnimation/{{Doug}}'' does this towards the entire town of Bluffington. Porkchop's on the chopping block because Bebe Bluff was accidentally injured when the dog tried to prevent her from getting drowned and her father, the very influential owner of the town, blows it out of complete proportion. The entire town is utterly apathetic to Doug's plight because of a combination of a ScareCampaign and ''because it's Christmas''. It takes Doug calling everyone out in a courtroom just to give Porkchop a fair shake. And it was after saving Bebe when she actually ''did'' fall into the lake did he become a free dog.
* ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManUnlimited'': The first episode kicks off with Spider-Man trying and failing to stop [[ThoseTwoBadGuys Venom and Carnage]] from boarding John Jameson's shuttle, and thus getting accused of sabotaging the shuttle and relentlessly shunned and persecuted by all of New York as a result. When he saves someone from a burning building, only to be sprayed by the firemen and accused of having been the one to set the fire in the first place, Spidey finally calls them out:
-->'''Spider-Man''': You're blaming ''me''?! After all the times I've risked my life for this [[BigRottenApple stinking city]], ''[[UngratefulBastard this]]'' [[UngratefulBastard is the thanks I get?!]]
* ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'':
** In "Disappearing Inque", Batman sees the shapeshifter Inque escaping by having disguised herself as a jacket on a hostage, immediately swooping in to stop her, but Gotham police attack him, knocking Mr. Freeze's gun from his hand, which Inque immediately grabs and destroys. [[NeverMyFault And after she escapes, the lead policeman basically says "Let Batman handle it..."]]
** In "Babel", Shriek threatens to escalate his attacks on Gotham City unless Batman surrenders to him. Some of the citizens (including people Batman had saved earlier) say he should give in to the demand, much to the original Batman's disgust:
--->'''Bruce:''' This kid has done a lot for this city. It's about time this city did something for him!
* In ''WesternAnimation/SonicBoom'', the villagers of [[CityWithNoName the unnamed village]] that Sonic and his friends defend from Eggman are always quick to turn on Sonic, and think the worst of him no matter what the situation is. This actually becomes a major plot point in the episode "Just a Guy", when they blow everything Sonic says about Mike the Ox out of proportion, causing Sonic to nearly quit heroism for good.
-->'''Sonic:''' You know what I think is compassionate? Saving the village from Eggman! [[MediumAwareness Like, every week]]! But do I get any props for that? No! Everyone just goes around gasping at me when I call a guy "a guy" or people "people"!

Over the span of her career, Alicia Keys has earned the title of Grammy Awards Queen. She's taken home a whopping 14 trophies, but her reprieve from this year's show means that she'll get the chance to watch her pals try to take home Grammy gold come February.
One of those pals is Girl on Fire songwriter , Frank Ocean, who is up for a whopping six awards off the power of his debut album Channel Orange. Those accolades, Keys tells MTV News, are well-deserved. "I'm so happy! I'm gonna tell him today cause I was in these rehearsals all day so they kind of came out, what last night or something, so by the time today I figured out kind of everything that was going on," she said Thursday night on the red carpet of her annual Black Ball in New York City.
In fact, she couldn't say enough for her "One Thing" collaborator, Ocean . She added, "I'm so excited for Frank. I think he's a really, really, really special artist for real. And I'm so glad that people are recognizing that. I think this is going to be a really cool Grammy year."
In honor of Frank Ocean's Grammy nods, Odd Future picks their favorite Channel Orange tracks.
But, he wasn't the only guy she wanted to send Grammy love to. "I'm gonna reach out to a couple people. I'm gonna reach out to Miguel," she also shared. (The "Adorn" singer is up for five awards himself). "I think that he's awesome."
Miguel is bringing his Grammy-nominated track to MTV's "Big & Best of 2012"!
Keys wasn't just celebrating her friends' achievements at the Black Ball. She was also at the Apollo Theater to raise funds for her Keep a Child Alive charity. It worked as she reportedly raised $2.9 million after having to reschedule the event last month due hurricane Sandy.
"Well, because the Black Ball got pushed back from November 1… it changed everything. There's absolutely nothing that's the same as the original program, but that is fine. I think that it became even better because it's more spirited and it made us have a certain gratitude because so many people were displaced. … So it made this even more important to make this work."

Today I tripped over the headphone cable connecting to my laptop. I severely dislike the location of the audio connectors of my laptop, but there's nothing I can really do about it. As well as bending the headphone connector (easily fixed), I damaged the audio jack of the laptop. This isn't a normal audio jack; it has SPDIF output as well as 1/8" stereo, analog output.
Luckily, the audio connectors are on a separate PCB from the mainboard. I don't want to replace the entire audio PCB though, not when only this connector is defective. The connector only has 11 pins soldered to the PCB, so I want to unsolder those and install a new connector...if I can find it.
Note the connector all the way to the left
The manufacturer is Foxconn and on it is printed "7BGCA-TXL"
Of course google doesn't turn anything up. Does anybody know exactly what this type of connector is called, or can shed some light on exactly what I'm looking for?

Pre-production will start soon with filming beginning next summer.
The project originally started at DreamWorks.
The other projects del Toro is developing at Universal include FRANKENSTEIN and SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE.

My son is 13 months old and still uses his paci almost all the time. When I take it away, he is constantly asking for it, and has fits until I give it to him. We had weaned him from it except for naptime and bedtime, but then we started weaning him from the breast, and the paci became his only source of comfort when he couldn't nurse. He is completely weaned from the breast now (as of last night), so I am wondering how long I wait before I start weaning him from the paci. My mother-in-law just informed me that some of my in-laws were making comments that he is too old to have a pacifier, so that makes me wonder. When did your LO get rid of his/her pacifier? Any advice for weaning? Weaning from the breast was hard enough- I feel like I need a break!
How long is too long for the paci?
Amber, married to Seth since July, 2005
Gavin (8), Grant (5), & Micah (2)
Oh goodness, that's what I would say to other people! IMO, your lo isn't too old to have a paci especially if you are weaning him from the breast now. My ods, now 8.5 was weaned from the bottle completely by a year, and the paci at 13 mos. However, my dd, 16 mos, still has her paci, but only at naps and bedtime.
We saw ods's ped dentist today and I asked her when she would suggest taking it away from dd, she said sooner rather than later, however she said the latest would be 3 years old. Yikes, I can't imagine her having it that long, but too each their own. I don't judge those who use them longer. But the orthodontist and the senior dentist in the office recommend 6 months because after that it comes to be a habit, not to supplement a sucking reflex. So conflicting information from two dentists in the same office.
Here's my take: My dd won't have hers after 18months. But IMO, if it is impeding your lo from talking then it would probably be an issue. According to the ADA, and I am paraphrasing from their dental book, that they recommend seeing a dentist within 6 months after their first tooth erupts, but no later than their first birthday.
Does your lo have a lovey or a stuffed animal? If you are planning on taking the paci this might be something that he can associate with comfort instead of the paci.

"I looked him right in the eye and said goodbye"
I wish I had weaned my daughter before 12 months because it was at about 12 months she started to ask for it on her own and want it at times other than sleep. I do notice though that it seems to soothe her whenever she has new teeth erupting and she will want it more. I am hoping to have it gone by 2 when most of her molars have come in.
The recommendations by the ADA sound way to conservative. What in the world are they going to look at with one tooth or even a couple for that matter? As long as they are not falling asleep with a bottle hanging out of their mouth Im sure the risk is low for cavaties/decay. My son's first visit was just before 4 yrs and they only did a visual exam (no xrays..he will have them at 4.5yrs) and flouride treatment. I probably would have taken him earlier at 3 if I had not just had my second baby at the time. Anyway sorry about going off the paci track As far as other people's opinions...put on a thick skin because if its not one thing its another that people have an opionion about what you should be doing...just do what you feel is best for your child.
For us, it all came down to our parenting style. We self-weaned from nursing, so we approached the pacifier in the same way. We didn't want to take our dd's 'comfort' away from her for no reason. She had a pacifier bite already at 12 months, but our doc said that can change when her permanent teeth come in.
DD#1 CHOSE to stop using her paci about a month before her 4th birthday. We encouraged less usage of it after she turned 2 and could be reasoned with. She could only use it for nap and bedtime after age 2, and she was to never speak with it in her mouth.
At age 3 we asked her to only use it at bedtime and in the car on long trips. She ended up giving it up the weekend we spend in the hospital together when her baby sister was born. She never looked back....and we threw a BIG party for her with all her friends after that!
*Attached, Homeschooling, Hairstyling Mama*
Hootie is 8
Roo is 4
Monkey&Sissy- I read the information and thought the same thing. They are talking about reviewing medical histories, a complete oral exam, teeth cleaning, flouride exposure or lack thereof, feeding practices, child's risk for tooth decay, and provide info regarding oral development. The dentists that I have seen in my adolescent years and beyond don't seem that they would do that much work on a squirmy toddler. I know at my ods first appt, I think that he was closer to 3 as well and they didn't do anything close to that.
Sorry for the sidetrack.
DD had 12 teeth at one year, but ped dentist didn't want to see her until today (she wasn't able to go though).
Mom to Zachary, my Star Wars Jedi Master, 4/00 & Samantha, my little hellian princess, 6/07
"I looked him right in the eye and said goodbye"
I think it's up to you. I think the poster who said they let her have it as long as she wanted but enforced certain things like no talking when it was in, was RIGHT on.
I weaned DD of the bink at 15 months. She looked for it for a couple of days, but it wasn't that bad getting rid of it.
I personally think it kind of hinders the speech development if they've got it in all the time. I've noticed relatives with children who had binks for a long time and most of those kids were slower to talk. That's just a theory of mine. We only used it as a soothing method (DD only got hers in the car or for naps/nighttime). So maybe that made it easier to break away.
Maybe you could just start using it for naps and such again instead of all day. You might find a "lovey" that he could as comfort in between. A blanket, a stuffed animal or something. Then when he's grown an attachment to the lovey- you can do away with the bink.
Rachel: Mommy to Iris and Vera. Cancer Fighter & Certified Lactation Counselor.
Ds, who is 2 1/2, still has his but only in the crib, on my bed, or if he is on the car during what should be his naptime or if it's after hisbedtime. He knows he isn't supposed to have it any other time but he tries. I am not planning on taking it away from him anytime real soon. I agree with pp who said she didn't want to take away his comfort and something that he cherishes and loves. His pedi wanted me to take it away back when he was an infant but it didn't happen. I hear so much controversy over whether their teeth or bite gets affected before their permanent teeth come in but honestly, if he has an overbite, he'll get braces. chances are he is going to need them anyway (the way his jaw is aligned) so be it. I am also due with dd at the end of November and ds will be moving into a new room AND into a big boy bed so he has so many changes coming his way that to add taking away his cherished binky would just be cruelty.
I firmly believe that you should make the decision based on your child, his/her personality, and your beliefs. To hell with anyone else and their beliefs. It's YOUR child!
�������������������� Wife to Scott�
Mommy to Adam 04.03.06 & Abigail 11.25.08
We let DS have his at bedtime until he was almost 3.
Then he ws in a big bed and it kept getting lost in the covers! I had the paci fairy come!
Anyways. He is still a little guy! Tell everyone else to mind their own business! You know what he needs and right now he gets his comfort from the paci.
Take care
For me it nap and bed only after 12 months. Take it away for all the time before age 3. My reason behind it is you have a hard time getting a child from sucking on there thumb before age 3 why cant a child have a pacy until the same age.
The dentist thing. When I was working in a dental office they liked to see them around age 4 unless there is concerns or tooth decay.

The Character of Disadvantage
It is a common thought that women must change if they are to escape their present disadvantage. The thought is not confined to feminists. On the contrary, it has a counterpart in the general belief, widespread among social reformers, that improving the lives of people, and ensuring that they are no longer disadvantaged in relation to others, necessarily involves improving the capacities of those people, intellectually, physically, psychologically, or otherwise. Among feminists this thought has given rise to a familiar and prolonged inquiry into the question of whether the qualities and characteristics that constitute sexual identity, and so describe what it means to be a woman or a man, are the product of nature or nurture. This inquiry matters to feminists because the source of sexual identity is supposed to make a difference to whether that identity can be changed.
Two assumptions are at work here. First, that what is the product of nurture is subject to change through nurture. What we have made we can unmake; what we have done wrong we can now do right. Second, and more fundamentally, it is assumed that such change is not merely possible but desirable. Women's success in life, it is said, is limited by the very capacities that define them as women. What makes a woman a woman also makes her less. It follows that women must become something other than they now are, something better than they have been permitted to be, if they are to escape their present disadvantage and begin to lead successful lives. We must raise our daughters, and our sons, to be different from ourselves.
Change of this kind is typically thought to be desirable for reasons of equality. It is often suggested, most famously by Catharine MacKinnon, that women and men should not differ from one another in any way that could give rise to disadvantage to either.1 If it is the case, as MacKinnon further claims, that____________________

Attorney gets to compete in Hemingway contest
Published: Saturday, July 21, 2012 at 10:54 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, July 21, 2012 at 10:54 p.m.
KEY WEST — A Florida attorney who was denied a motion to recess a federal murder trial in order to compete in an Ernest Hemingway look-alike competition in Key West has realized his desire, despite the judge's ruling.
Frank Louderback, of St. Petersburg, competed in Friday's second preliminary round of the "Papa" Hemingway Look-Alike Contest because his client pleaded guilty July 9, the day the trial began.
Louderback is among 140 stocky bearded men being judged on their likeness to Hemingway during the author's later years. The event is being staged at Sloppy Joe's Bar, frequented by Hemingway throughout the 1930s. Louderback has made it to the finals, which are scheduled for Saturday.
The contest is a highlight of the island's annual Hemingway Days festival, which also features a marlin tournament, a whimsical Running of the Bulls and a short story contest coordinated by Hemingway's granddaughter, Lorian Hemingway.
