Aren't you beautiful?"]]]]For [[NightmareFace a]] [[DerangedAnimation show]] [[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs like]] [[WesternAnimation/TheMarvelousMisadventuresOfFlapjack this]], there's a lot of scary stuff.----* In general, Thalassophobia. You fear sea monsters? Fear being far away from home? Fear how big and empty the ocean feels? Hell, maybe you just fear water itself. Then this cartoon [[NightmareFetishist may]] or may not be for you!* The episode "Fancy Pants". In order to get into Peppermint Larry's VIP section of the Candy Barrel, Captain K'nuckles has to get a pair of fancy pants. But since K'nuckles is...well, K'nuckles (i.e. dirt poor), he can't buy a pair. However, there is a free pair, but you have to be incredibly obese to wear them. While trying to figure out a way to gain enough weight, Flapjack suggests to K'nuckles that he should eat a ton instantly fattening "candy-coated hot dogs". Seeing K'nuckles eat the food is bad enough, but what comes at the end of episode is even more horrible and [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment completely out of left field]]. K'nuckles finally gets into the V.I.P. section, but all of a sudden '''he explodes, filling the place with a billion hotdogs and a sea of BLOOD.'''* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MEA7yF2jxE The cat]] which provides our [[SarcasmMode lovely]] page image. '''''"Eeeeeeuuuuhhhhh..."'''''* In "Foot Burn" an old hag shouts at Knuckles causing his face to rip off. The results are very detailed.** The hag herself is also pretty disturbing.* Almost all of " K'nuckles Is a Dirty Rat" is nightmare fuel. What with all the extremely detailed, extremely grotesque, plague infested citizens, Dr. Barber, and the random song about giving someone the plague just because they won't be friends with you.* "Pun Times with Punsy [=McHale=]" has a scene where he scares Flapjack by telling him puns as his head enlarges and turns to all the colors of the rainbow. ''"You think you're RED-y for my rhymes!?"''* The acid trip like sequence K'nuckles has in "K'nuckles' Hilarious Problem".--> Candy Wife: "I'm delicioussssssss." *shudders*** K'nuckles has pulled plenty of [[NightmareFace nightmare faces]] in the episode.* The character Dr. Barber. Here's an explanation: being in a show that is ''WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog'' combined with ''SpongeBob'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow,'' he's one of the scariest characters there. Plus, he's involved in most of the scary scenes of the show-- like the freak-out scene from ''K'nuckles and His Hilarious Problem,'' ''Fish Heads,'' and ''K'nuckles is a Dirty Rat.''** The episode "Fish Heads" has the K'nuckles and Flapjack selling hundreds of fishheads [[NauseaFuel for various purposes such as toothpaste]]. Then, when Doctor Barber gets a hold of the two's fish heads, [[spoiler: he creates a giant hair...fish...thing which was supposed to give everyone perfect haircuts, but instead gave them horrible haircuts. That's not all.]] It's a lot scarier in action.** Gone Wishin' has the mermaid which [[spoiler: decays over time from K'nuckles wishing, and then her horrifying transformation sequence.]]** "Unhappy Endings" has a scene where Flapjack and K'nuckles decide to hear a story from Dr. Barber. Dr. Barber tells the story of how they actually want surgery, so Dr. Barber gives them his tea and starts doing...'''[[BodyHorror SURGERY]]'''.* Flapjack's nightmare from "Tee Hee Tummy Tums". What is scary about it is that it comes straight out of nowhere.* In ''Panfake'' Peppermint Larry uses DEAD RATS as puppets! While Flapjack and K'nuckles are helping Peppermint Larry by cleaning out the Candy Barrel, Flapajck stumbles upon an old box, Larry remembers that the box has his old puppets in them so he pulls them out to show him. When he pulls them out, Flapjack just flops to the floor screaming in terror. From a distance they look like rubber cartoon rat puppets, then Larry has to use them to point out they're puppets and we clearly see they're dead rats tied to strings! "shudders" [[JerkassHasAPoint no WONDER the Dock hag shut him down!]]** A subtle but terrifying detail is that at first Larry voices each puppet one at a time. Then he somehow voices both puppets ''simultaneously''. Either he is the greatest ventriloquist of all time or the puppets can really speak.* That mechanical genie...* "WESSSSSSSTTTTTT..."* The sight of Flapjack cheerily ''tying knots in Bubbie's intestines'' in preparation for the Knot Tying Festival. The fact that everyone treats it so lightly just adds to the MindScrew factor.* In the episode "Skooled", from the very start, you get to see a bunch of leftover limbs inside Eight-Armed Willy's mouth. While not bloody, these limbs are still fresh and only got their outer bones visible.** It gets worse, K'nuckles gets into [[PunnyName Ms. Leading]]'s school during night to steal some candy. When he sees her, he thinks she just uses silent treatment, but then realizes that she's a puppet (Ironically saying "I feel mis...lead!") as well as her students. Then, tentacles appear from the ground and grab hold of Ms. Leading and her students, which start to talk to him in a creepy innocent voice.** [[FromBadToWorse It STILL gets worse]], when Flapjack arrives to school, the teacher says that today she will teach them about '''FEAR''' with a [[NightmareFace slightly nightmarish face]] and creepy deep voice. K'nuckles, full of fear, writes to Flapjack but the teacher intervenes and reads it, in which case '''IT''' goes in a total rage full of twitchy movement and environmental colour change. [[spoiler: '''Then a tentacle breaks her whole face and body.''' Good thing it was just a puppet.]]** [[spoiler: [[NightmareRetardant Oh, don't worry!]] It was not Eight-Armed Willy, it was Ms. Leading herself dressed as Eight-Armed Willy! K'nuckles and Flapjack get candy after learning which is right and which is left.]]* In one episode, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHyU0craHKg there is a scene]] where Flapjack tells a presumably young boy to grow up. After the boy tells Flapjack he is 38 years old, we get a close-up of his wrinkled face. His expression immediately cuts from a somewhat-happy face to an expression of desolation as a disturbing instrumental plays in the background. The same scene is also shown at the end of the same episode.

Versatile Protection for PCs and All Electronics
The TMC-6 offers premium surge protection for PCs and all electronics. It provides six 5-15R outlets, including four that are equipped with their own individual switches, plus single-line tel/DSL line surge protection. Its low-profile, under-monitor design makes the TMC-6 easy to integrate into any home or office PC setup. A 6ft cord enables connection to a distant wall outlet, and a space-saving, right-angle 5-15P plug allows furniture to be placed flush against the wall.
Reliable AC Line Surge Suppression
More joules mean more protection, and the TMC-6 delivers with a high 1440-joule surge protection rating. And compared with other surge suppressors, the TMC-6 provides a substantially larger and more robust component array to provide an effective, multi-layered defense against damaging power surges.
Improved Component Performance
Various electromagnetic and radio sources can cause disruptive interference on the AC line. This line noise is a common cause of incremental hardware damage, data corruption and performance problems. The TMC-6 incorporates technology that filters out disruptive line noise, preventing it from affecting your equipment, and helping to ensure peak performance.
Phone Line Protection
Phone connections represent a potential back door through which a damaging surge could reach your equipment. The TMC-6 includes one set of built-in tel/DSL (RJ11) jacks to prevent surges from damaging your computer, fax or modem (one 6-ft. RJ11 phone cord included).
Individually Controllable Outlets

This review is from: Tripp Lite TMC-6 6ft. Cord 6 Outlets 1440 Joules Protect It! Surge Suppressor
Pros: it works and it's cheap.
Cons: would like it to be 6 buttons instead of 4, but ph well.
Did you find this review helpful?
Entiely Satisfied!
This review is from: Tripp Lite TMC-6 6ft. Cord 6 Outlets 1440 Joules Protect It! Surge Suppressor
Pros: Device comes with 4 switched and 2 unswitched outlets that are widely spaced to prevent plugs interfering with each other. It's thin, compact design doesn't take up much space on my desk either.
Cons: Because it is thin if you are using it for devices with "wall-warts" like I am such as a cable modem or print server, you'll want to buy "pigtail" extension cords because there is not enough space to allow large AC adaptors to be plugged in directly to this device. A very small price to pay though.
Other Thoughts: Overall an excellent device, I have been using two of these on my workbench for more than three years now and have had zero problems.

Update for Last Review
This review is from: Tripp Lite TMC-6 6ft. Cord 6 Outlets 1440 Joules Protect It! Surge Suppressor
Pros: This unit has been replaced.
Cons: Price is still outragious as I paided half as much as it's advertised for now. I still recommend avoiding this perticular unit as the buttons where just not made to last.
Other Thoughts: I wanted to update my last review. After research across the net this units "Button Failure" is a known issue. Tends to show up a year or so after purchase.

Button Failure
This review is from: Tripp Lite TMC-6 6ft. Cord 6 Outlets 1440 Joules Protect It! Surge Suppressor
Pros: Small footprint but not made to hold heavy monitors.
Cons: Works well when new but has issues with the buttons after awhile.
Other Thoughts: I bought this unit in 2009 and I'm now looking for a replacement. After 2 years of use the main power button "pops out" on it's own intermittently which powers every device connected to it "OFF".

This review is from: Tripp Lite TMC-6 6ft. Cord 6 Outlets 1440 Joules Protect It! Surge Suppressor
Pros: Individual switches for each plug.
Cons: Outer shell made of plastic, although it is sturdier than it appears.
Other Thoughts: The older unit was a solid metal unit. I think I liked that a bit better.
Did you find this review helpful?
I like it.
This review is from: Tripp Lite TMC-6 6ft. Cord 6 Outlets 1440 Joules Protect It! Surge Suppressor
Pros: First off, it's actually rated at 1850 joules and not 1440, so that was a pleasant surprise. The individual power buttons are a nice touch and putting this under a monitor gives you quick and easy access. 6 outlets is enough for most computer setups. The build quality seems solid enough, though I wouldn't put anything bigger then a 24" monitor on top of this for balance reasons. The right angle power plug is handy.
Cons: So far so good. I wouldn't say it's cheaply made, but the plastic casing might give that impression. I found it to be rather sturdy, enough to hold a 17" CRT I bet. The springs on the switches are not as firm as I would like, but they don't feel super cheap either.
Other Thoughts: It's kind of a niche/dated item, having a power strip under the monitor reminds me of the beige desktops of the 80's and early 90's, so getting this is really a matter of style. Overall, I think this product represents a good value for the price.

Death at Carbon County nursing home ruled homicide
The death of an 85-year-old woman at a Carbon County nursing home has been ruled a homicide by the Luzerne County Coroner's Office.
Margaret Lechleitner, who lived at Weatherwood Nursing Home in Weatherly, was allegedly pushed, then fell and struck her head on April 20, according to acting Coroner Bill Lisman. The woman died about six hours later at Hazleton General Hospital.
Lisman said Dr. Gary Ross performed an autopsy earlier this week at Wilkes-Barre General Hospital and found the cause of death was subdural hematoma due to a fall from being pushed.
The incident remains under investigation by Weatherly police and the Carbon County District Attorney's Office.
The nursing home is owned by Guardian Elder Care of Brockway. Calls to the company for comment have not been returned.

Thank you for being with us this year, and looking forward to another year of stressful moments, charming deadlines and jobs well done as always ;) We really appreciate it and wish you an abundance of joy, love, happiness with a 90-day deferred payment plan for your holiday shopping :)
All the best from IDM Music team
in 2011 with JEUNE MUSIQUE & BEGGARS MUSIC PUBLISHING
IDM MUSIC is happy to announce a very successful entrance into the year 2011, with the signing of two new great publishing catalogues - Jeune Musique and Beggars Music Publishing.
JEUNE MUSIQUE was created in 1967 by famous French singer Claude Francois. The catalogue was acquired by Because Editions in November 2009. Jeune Musique owns the rights of the song "My Way", originally one of Claude François' biggest hit "Comme d'Habitude". Jeune Musique also owns the rights of Claude François' biggest successes such as "Alexandrie Alexandra", "Magnolias for Ever" or "Comme d'habitude" which are amongst the biggest French copyrights ever.
BEGGARS MUSIC was born in January 2010 to consolidate, strengthen and expand the Beggars Group's publishing interests. Their roster consists of great artists such as Cat Power, Belle & Sebastian, Sonic Youth, Holy Fuck, Air France etc and they are uniquely placed to work in close partnership with some of the most exciting and innovative labels in the world; XL, 4AD, Matador, Rough Trade, Stolen Recordings and Young Turks.
With the release of the single 'Feeling Like A Superstar' the queen of house music, Barbara Tucker, has announced her collaboration with PLAYONE on her new album. Croatian duo, comprised of Darko Juranović D`Knock and Davor Žagar DJ Fresh Jay produced, arranged and mixed one of the versions of her latest single 'Feeling Like A Superstar'.
PLAYONE already have two singles, 'I Found A Place' and 'Let It Shine', that feature the mega popular Babara Tucker – considered by many as a queen of the world's club scene. Born in New York, Barbara Tucker is renowned as a soul singer, author and songwriter. So far, she collaborated with Wyclef Jean, George Clinton, Dave Steward, Pet Shop Boys, DeeeLite, Shannon, C & C Music Factory, Soul System, Jay Williams and numerous other chart toppers. She also collaborated with many producers such as David Guetta, Tommy Musto, Little Louie Vega, Danny Tenagli, Eric Morillo, Full Force and DJ Pierre.
PLAYONE and Barbara Tucker are getting ready for their European promo tour throughout party centers Berlin, Barcelona, Rimini, Prague... Also, they are preparing remixes of the single 'Let it shine' that will be done by world renowned DJ's and producers, while the song's video will have its promotion on MTV Europe in a few days.
THE BASTARDZ 6, the come-back album of the group The Bastardz, one of the founders of the Croatian modern, urban sound, has been released on Monday, 15/11, by IDM Music. The distribution will be done by the eminent Croatian record labels and distributing companies and will be available for digital download on the group's official web site.
Their promo tour already started yesterday in O Hara club in Split, and you can also see them in Omiš on 11/20, Zadar 12/11 and in Zagreb on 12/15. The tour will continue during the beginning of 2011.
The first single from the album, called "Hajde kaži" (Come on, Tell) is already rocking the radio playlists across the country and soon you will have a chance to hear the rest of the gems from The Bastardz 6. Besides the regular group members, the album hosted many guests and collaborators such as the world's funk legend Joseph "Joe" Bowie, one of the best trombone players in the world and the founder of the cult American group Defunkt and many famous female Croatian singers. A mellow mixture of different music styles based on funk, soul and jazz is once again a trademark of this, sixth in arrow Bastardz' album, and many critics predict it a notable success.

Notes and Documents
Texas History in the Public Schools: An Appraisal
classes in September, 1978, and found crisp, new textbooks for the
required study of Texas history. New books are necessary about every
five years because the volumes receive hard usage and because the sub-
ject matter in history, as well as in science, becomes outdated when new
discoveries and events make old interpretations obsolete. Thus the state,
on a regular basis, approves and supplies new books for all disciplines
taught in the public schools.
Parents, taxpayers, and the public probably should exhibit more in-
terest than they do in the selection of these books; but, in the republi-
can tradition, they rely on the opinions of experts-in this case, the
opinions of teachers and the State Board of Education. The increasing
public concern for the accountability of public monies, however, sug-
gests that the process by which books arrive in Texas classrooms should
be better understood. Who writes and publishes these textbooks? How
are they chosen? Who pays for them? Is the taxpayer getting full value?
And finally, are students and teachers receiving the best instructional
material available?
Choosing new textbooks is the responsibility of the Texas Education
Agency (TEA), the state's administrative arm that supervises the public
school system. Created by the legislature in 1949, the TEA is composed
of three parts: (1) the State Board of Education (twenty-one popularly
elected members each representing a congressional district in Texas);
*Margaret Swett Henson, a native of Illinois who has taught Texas history in junior
and senior high schools in Houston, has worked with both accelerated and slow students
in multiethnic and multiracial classrooms. She has also served on local textbook commit-
tees, and now teaches at the University of Houston at Clear Lake City.

Terence Davies has left his native Liverpool far behind but has retained the themes and style of his two fine British films, "Distant Voices Still Lives" and "The Long Day Closes" in "The Neon Bible," a beautifully crafted but thin and self-conscious tale about a dysfunctional family living in rural Georgia in the 1940s. Davies fans should support his new venture, but new audiences for his distinctive style will be hard to find, and Miramax may expect fairly modest returns in specialized theaters.
Terence Davies has left his native Liverpool far behind but has retained the themes and style of his two fine British films, "Distant Voices Still Lives" and "The Long Day Closes" in "The Neon Bible," a beautifully crafted but thin and self-conscious tale about a dysfunctional family living in rural Georgia in the 1940s. Davies fans should support his new venture, but new audiences for his distinctive style will be hard to find, and Miramax may expect fairly modest returns in specialized theaters.Until now, Davies has essayed painfully candid autobiographical pix based on his impoverished Catholic upbringing in Northern England, films that radiated with the filmmaker's love for his mother and sisters and hate for his brutal father. Popular songs, films and radio snippets from the war years are featured prominently in his often achingly beautiful work. All of the same elements are to be found in "The Neon Bible" (a curious title under the circumstances), though the new film is set in the American Deep South and the tone is distinctively American. It's as though Davies was nervous about moving too far from the kind of characters, people and time frame with which he has succeeded in the past. As a result, the film, despite brilliant and touching moments, has the overall feel of an unadventurous rerun of material handled better the first time around. The film opens promisingly with Mick Coulter's elegant Scope camera moving in on 15-year-old David (Jacob Tierney) as he travels by train away from the valley where he's lived all his life. Flashbacks return to five years earlier, when Aunt Mae(Gena Rowlands) came to live with David's parents, the dirt-poor Frank (Denis Leary) and Sarah (Diana Scarwid). A former small-time showgirl well past her prime, Mae fascinates the boy and becomes his constant companion, to the strong disapproval of his volatile father. She introduces the boy to a world of magic and gives him the love his parents cannot. Frank enlists when war breaks out, and never returns, driving Sarah to the edge of insanity. The teenage David finishes school and gets a job in a general store; a brief courtship of a pretty girl leads, frustratingly, to nothing; and when Mae is offered a singing job in Nashville and decides to move away, David is left to care for his suicidal mother. For about the first half hour, Davies and his superb creative team weave a potent spell. The gliding camera, the use of popular songs of the era, the backwater community that evokes the town in Charles Laughton's "The Night of the Hunter," the disarming performances and the elegant direction all combine to exert a distinctive magic. But, starting with a poorly staged revival meeting sequence, things start to go wrong; Davies' grip slackens, and the artifice overwhelms the perilously slim storyline. Ultimately, this is a film of great moments: Aunt Mae singing "My Romance" at a wartime dance attended mostly by women; David, back to camera, standing on a veranda looking out on a starry sky, morphing from a 10-year-old into a 15 -year-old; World War II ending with the triumphant Max Steiner music from "Gone With the Wind" on the soundtrack. But overall, Davies seems to have fallen into a stylistic rut, and though the film is stunningly crafted it's emotionally shallow. Rowlands gives Aunt Mae great dignity and warmth, and Scarwid has impressive moments as David's tragic mother. Tierney, the Canadian actor who plays David at 15, gives a lovely performance, as does Drake Bell, who essays the role of the younger David. Davies needs to break fresher ground in future outings; there's no doubt that he's an accomplished and individualistic filmmaker, but he may be hitting a stylistic dead end.

at least the i7 series and what I'm reading says. If cost it the number one thing your looking at the 3rd generation Ivy bridge will be discounted. The 4th generation processor will not be much different from the 3rd generation in desktops as the major improvements over the 3rd generation are Graphics and battery life.
The Haswell:
1. The new Iris graphics will actually do 3D graphics without a discrete graphics card.
2. Battery life - The new micro architecture has changed from the Ivy and Sandy Bridge to be more power efficient. The Haswell has a integrated voltage regulator which focuses on power saving and lower temperatures.
I read that a group tested the MBA 13.3 haswell versus Ivy Bridge processor test. The haswell almost doubled the Ivy bridge and got 15.5 hours of battery life. The ivy MBA is going for 974.99 and the new MBA is going for 1089. SO your looking at a 10% increase for the new technology.
I'm looking for a new laptop to buy, something high-performance and also good for multimedia purposes,
my question is should i wait for new laptops equipped to Haswell or Ivy Bridge is good for me? how about the price?
please explain!

CEA Blog: How to Report an Underage DeviantHiya deviants!It's always pretty unfortunate when we find a talented young artist here on dA when they are just too young to hold an account with us. Today I would like to talk about what to do when you stumble across a deviant that is under the age of 13 years old.So what do we consider to be "underage" and what does dA do about it?dA complies with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, meaning we prohibit any child under the age of 13 from opening and using a dA account. Even with parental permissions this restriction must stay in place.When an underage kiddo is brought to our attention their account will be closed automatically. COPPA closed accounts are kept as they are until their owner reaches our minimum required age. Upon verification of their age their account can be restored to active status and all its contents will still be there.For more information on what COPPA is please go here: COPPA.org.So what do I do

Drawing From LifeWhen I was in school, our life-drawing teacher had us focus on just one area of the model's body as we drew, attempting to form an impression of the rest of that body by staring only at one focal point.Gradually, the arms and legs would burn into the periphery of what we saw while we were staring at the model's left eye, for example, and it was that peripheral impression we'd try to convey with our stumps of vine charcoal, hopefully resulting in drawings that replicated what we actually saw, as opposed to what a camera might see.That kind of focus and concentration brings on an easy, trance-like state, and unveils the beauty of human flesh, no matter what shape it's in-- models who would likely never turn up on the cover of Italian Vogue would nonetheless glow under the spotlights of the classroom, and you'd see what a miraculous thing it is for the human body to absorb and reflect light; how that light defines shape and casts differing intensities of shadow. We'd come away

Perusing past contests is a great way to find wonderful deviations that may have been overlooked by the community. Using the search under "Contests" the sub-cats are listed by year, so it is just a matter of choosing a year then choosing the contest to see many, many wonderful works that had been entered into past contests.Bear in mind, the contest gallery is HUGE!

Stock and Resources UpdatesLETS TALK ABOUT STOCK "REQUESTS"Every year we get excited, eager, passionate new stock providers entering our small but growing community, and every year these new stock models in particular get targeted by a small group of "requesters" Those of us who have been on the site for more than a few years recognise the types of "requests" I'm talking about and know to absolutely avoid them at all costs, but its something that I've seen more and more regularly over the last few months, and its definitely a concern.There are standard "pose requests" that are NOT requested for the "artist" to work from. They are simply asking you to take photos of yourself in provocative poses so they can get off to your stock.Firstly - please keep in mind that the images you are providing to artists are STOCK ART - they are first and foremost designed to provide artists with useable, useful references, either for traditional art, or digital art or whatever media they choose to create
Stock and Resources: Policy ClarificationThe Stock and Resources community is an integral part of deviantART, both for having an active community of its own as well as providing high quality stock to all deviants. As this community has grown so much over the years, so has the amount of invalid stock and resources that have been provided by some deviants. The Stock and Resources community feels like this reflects negatively on them, the volunteers have a hard time trying to teach people about valid stock and how to use it correctly, and it gives an appearance that deviantART Staff tolerate so-called "art theft" or copyright infringement.In this article our aim is to reinforce our policies regarding stock and stock use and clear up some misconceptions.Stock and Resource submissions to deviantART:What are Invalid Stock and Resources?In short, invalid stock or resources are anything which you do not have full permission to upload.

National Award winning actress Kangana Ranaut, who is receiving rave reviews for her performance in "Queen", says she prefers appreciation from the audience over trophies.
"I am not interested in awards. I have already won a lot of awards... the audience's appreciation is important for me," she said.
"I am getting good reviews for my film. Many people are appreciating the film on social networking website. We all are very happy about that," added the actress.
Directed by Vikas Bahl, "Queen" features Kangna as a Delhi girl who goes for honeymoon without her partner.
Known for playing serious roles in films like "Woh Lamhe" and "Fashion", Kangana enjoyed her tryst with comedy in "Queen".
"Yes, comedy is fun and I enjoyed doing this film," said the actress who was also appreciated in the light-hearted romantic drama "Tanu Weds Manu".

Great piece on Mario Addison
MadHatter replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina PanthersThe OT play by Washington during the Delaire/Addison sack may be the worst I have ever seen. The LT did not move until Addison was already in the backfield and the RT looked like he never even saw Delaire. It was a jailbreak to the QB.
Damn....spellcheck on this phone sucks and my fingers are too damn big for this keyboard. But hey...it is better than some of the words I come up with at times.
The OP is basically a mildly retarted PU.
In affirmation of our new CBs, you can read between the lines regarding Boykin
MadHatter replied to top dawg's topic in Carolina Panthers4th team in 2 years......enough said.
Brandon Boykin to visit Falcons
MadHatter replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina PanthersThere is nothing in what he said that infers what you posted. He said that he needs TC and guys in pads to fully assess the rookie cb's....nothing about him not being part of the decision on Norman. This is an indictment on Boykin...they really either loved what they saw in the rookies or really don't like what the saw in Boykin.
This not really about anything creeping up on Palmer. He did what he has done his ENTIRE career. He choked in the big game when the pressure was on.....dude can't hack the heat of the playoffs. And, he never has been able to.
Hey Carson.....want some.....come get some
Falcons training with Navy Seals
MadHatter replied to raleigh-panther's topic in Carolina PanthersIt is not even that they are trying this....it is that they have tried something similar to this every offseason for years. Yet, they still play like a Powderpuff Football Team.
DeAngelo Williams in the news once again
MadHatter replied to 15's topic in Carolina PanthersWe are not talking about middle school or high school kids....we are not even talking about a true athletic competition. We are talking about a school field day for 4 year olds. The intent of that day is NOT the competition, but just to go out and have fun. If you think giving a ribbon to a 4 yo for participating in this is wrong and is "creating a monster", I really question whether you should be teaching kids at all.
Panthers sign two draft picks
MadHatter replied to Jeremy Igo's topic in Carolina PanthersNo go Doc...I have zero Alts on here
I know that you aspire for middle management....I blew past that level about a decade ago. And it is NOT luck. It is education and hard work. Again...if you are older than 18 and have developed ZERO marketable skills, then YOU failed....not everyone failed you. Public education, trade schools, community college, on-line courses, low income grants....they are all out there for people. Those that CHOOSE to do nothing and not take advantage of any of them only have themselves to blame when minimum wage jobs is all they are qualified for.
That is only because those employees have developed zero marketable skills in their time on this earth. With public education and low income grants for college/trade schools, anyone working in Wal-Mart really has no one but then selves to blame.
Local LB just wants his chance with the Panthers (LINK)
MadHatter replied to ECUPantherFan's topic in Carolina PanthersHe should pull a Willie Mays Hayes
Gettleman: we only had one guy rated higher when we picked Bradberry, a defensive tackle
MadHatter replied to CatMan72's topic in Carolina PanthersOr even during the draft.....after the pick was in. You have to remember that players, coaches, GM's, etc are very good friends with many on other teams. Unlike fans, they don't hate each other. I think people would be surprised at exactly how much they talk to each other.
Gettleman: We drafted a pass rusher
MadHatter replied to Jeremy Igo's topic in Carolina PanthersI think you are wrong on that assertion. DE's are at a huge disadvantage when the QB can step up in the pocket. Many experts have said that a inside push is what makes a DL special.
