A busted ass ugly chick. A person of the female gender that's just too fat and ugly/fugly to not be made fun of. Generally used as an insult and because the word is so obscure, one can get away with passing saying 'kluuug' without the other person becoming offended because chances are they'll have no idea what the hell you're talking about. Pronounced Kay - lug like two separate words.
'Did you see that klug at the front of the line?'
'yea man, that klug was nasty.'
'yea man, that klug was nasty.'

An insult directed towards women. A klug has been found by historians as one of the dumbest creatures to escape the primordial ooze.
Damn it, that klug gave me the wrong change.

The New York Times recently called Sandy Adams the toughest representative in Congress's freshman class of 2011. Which is not surprising, given that her journey into national politics began with an abusive marriage.
Adams dropped out of high school at 17 to join the Air Force. She married at 18, and it wasn't long before her husband turned violent. She considered leaving him but thought twice when she got pregnant. "I wanted to give my husband the opportunity to be a good father," she says. "But it became clear that wasn't going to happen." When her daughter turned three, Adams moved out of the couple's home near the Jacksonville, Florida, Naval Air Station. "When I left him, I left behind the house, the car—I only took her clothes and my clothes," she says. "All I really wanted was my daughter."
Adams moved to Eutaw, Alabama, to be close to her parents. Her father owned a racing kennel, and at first she took a job there, cleaning out the dogs' crates. She also worked a pari-mutuel window, paying out winning tickets at dog-racing courses around the state and moving every few months to follow the circuit. "You can't really be choosy when you don't have a high school diploma," she says. But her daughter was toddling toward kindergarten, and Adams wanted to give her more stability. "I was sitting with a friend," Adams says, "and I told her I needed a job that would keep us in one place and give us some health insurance." The friend's fiancé, a deputy sheriff, suggested law enforcement, and the idea quickly grew on Adams.
But the police academy required at least a general equivalency diploma to enter. Adams said a prayer, took the test and passed. She attended school at night while working part time in retail. But when she graduated, no local police departments were hiring. For two years, Adams worked the pari-mutuel window and searched for a police job. Finally, in 1985, just before she turned 30, Florida's Orange County Sheriff's Office hired her as a deputy sheriff. She worked road patrol, foot patrol and special investigations. She also fell in love with a fellow officer, Frank Seton, a man eight years her junior. "When he asked me to marry him, I told him to go ask his mother," Adams says. The two wed on August 1, 1987. Adams's daughter, then 11 years old, was their maid of honor.
Together the family jokingly looked forward to May 1989, when Seton would turn 25 and legally be able to rent a car. He never got to enjoy that rite of passage. Just 17 months after they were married, a helicopter was called to assist Seton during a confrontation with armed suspects. While he was being evacuated, he fell to his death. "My daughter didn't want me to go back to work because she thought I was going to die, too," Adams says. "But I had to go back because I had to take care of my child."
After a few weeks of bereavement leave, she returned to the sheriff's office with a new intensity to her feelings. More and more often, Adams's job took her to the state capital, Tallahassee, where she advocated for victims' rights and started to think that making laws was at least as important as enforcing them. She began night classes at a nearby college, studying criminal justice, and after getting her degree married John H. Adams, a Florida Circuit Court judge. "I remember telling John that I was thinking of running for State House," she says. "I expected him to tell me I was crazy. Instead, he said he'd support me in whatever I wanted to do." Throughout her 2002 campaign, Adams would work an eight-hour sheriff's-office shift, come home and put on her tennis shoes, then walk for miles knocking on doors. A Republican, she won a five-way primary with 41 percent of the vote. She was re-elected three times.
Florida limits state officials to eight years in office, so as 2010 approached, Adams got ready to return to law enforcement. But she was upset by what was going on in Washington: She believed the health care act infringed on individual rights; she was appalled by the budget deficit. "I thought we were headed in the wrong direction," she says. Adams was elected to the U.S. Congress in 2010 with 60 percent of the vote.
Today, Adams is one of 15 House members who have not missed a single vote—and she is determined to keep her perfect record even when her daughter, now a 36-year-old insurance agent, gets married this March. When asked how she made it from kennel cleaner to Congress, Adams breaks into a huge maternal grin. "You just look into your daughter's eyes," she says. "You just have to put forth the effort."

first off, AWESOME BUILD !!
I'm a little late in the building game, as I have just now (well, last night) found this mentioned somewhere, either 1919a4 or militaryfirearms, and just had to come back and see it.
this is incredible to say the least, and in my favorite caliber.
I have only skimmed the surface of the various versions but am COMPLETELY hooked.
are the plans still available for purchase ? if so could you e-mail me the info, cost, address, etc ?
It'll be a future project, but I can start gathering parts now for it. like most everybody, the list of projects keeps growing by leaps and bounds, and the cash flow keeps getting smaller and smaller, BUT, I keep trying.
OK, I'm babbling now, I'll stop here and simply say "THANK YOU" for an awesome idea and build.

Reviews for Chicken Sausage Gyros
"I made these up for lunch one day. I used spinach and mozzarella chicken sausages instead. I would suggest heating up the sausages first and then slicing them, because when I sliced them first to cook, the cheese melted out of them. For as quick of a recipe as it was, this was pretty good."
"These were good, even the pickiest eaters in my family enjoyed them. I used the sausages the recipe called for [found at Sams as well as many other chicken sausage options] and also made with a chicken sausage that had sweet peppers, fontina, garlic and onion. Roasted red peppers and onion on the grill with the sausage and offered that as an option for the filling."
"The taste of chicken sausage gyros was not at all what I expected. It was not for me."
"I add sautéed onions & red peppers.I will make this again :-)"
"These chicken sausage gyros were sooo good! Very easy and so much flavor!"

Colts Reach Super Bowl
|The Indianapolis Colts just beat the New York Jets to win the AFC Championship. They go on to play the New Orleans Saints in Super Bowl XLIV. Let's take a look at some of the hottest Colts eBay items currently on the market.
|(1) - 1999 Donruss Elite Peyton Manning/Johnny Unitas Dual Autograph
Auction With Most Watchers: 59
Peyton Manning can add a lot to his legacy, and the value of his autograph if he is able to lead the Colts to victory in Super Bowl XLIV. The Elite Dual Autograph with former Colts legend Johnny Unitas was already over $1,000 when I first checked on it.
(2) - 2009 Upper Deck Black Triple Autograph Peyton/Eli/Archie Manning
Auction With Most Watchers: 50
Getting the entire family on one card, all autographed, that is pretty sweet. It will also cost you some $doe$ as well. Be sure to check out Eli's Rookie Card Checklist to pick up some cards while all eyes are on Peyton.
(3) - 1998 Collectors Edge Peyton Manning Rookie Ink Autograph
Auction With Most Watchers: 45
Back in 1998, Autographed Rookies weren't flooding the market like they are today. So this 1998 Collectors Edge Peyton Manning Autograph RC is a rare card indeed. Several of these cards will hit eBay over the next two weeks leading up to Super Bowl XLIV.
(4) - 1998 Sp Authentic Peyton Manning RC
Auction With Most Watchers: 44
This is my favorite Manning RC. These cards are condition sensitive, because the foil on the card 'flakes off'. The 1998 Sp Authentic Set was one of the early pioneer sets for serial numbered RC cards that are everywhere today.
(5) - Pierre Garcon 2008 Playoff Contenders Autograph RC
Auction With Most Watchers: 41
Garcon came up big for the Colts in the AFC Championship game against the Jets. With Darrelle Revis holding Reggie Wayne in check, Garcon was able to make some plays down the field.
Super Bowl XLIV might end up being a high scoring affair. Look for Garcon to play a major role in the passing game. If he puts up big numbers, and the Colts are able to get a 'W', Garcon items could be in for a huge pop during the off-season.

Lexington Youth Theatre prepares to present 'Grease'
Published: Thursday, January 24, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 at 1:54 p.m.
March 8, 9 and 10 will bring a lively portrayal of life in the 1950s to the stage of the Edward C. Smith Civic Center. From greased hair to poodle skirts, all the way to high school sock hops, this weekend will boast three energy-filled performances by the cast of Lexington Youth Theatre.
LYT will present "Grease: The School Version" as its spring musical. With a cast of nearly 60 talented actors, this show will undoubtedly be shock-full of captivating energy and '50s spirit.
"Grease" tells the story of two Rydell High School students, Danny Zuko and Sandy Dumbrowski, who reunite unexpectedly after a summer fling. Throughout the story, Sandy struggles to fit in among the Pink Ladies, and Danny struggles to maintain his tough-guy reputation as the leader of the Burger Palace Boys. "Grease" contains a plethora of high school romantic confusion, all set to '50s rock 'n' roll dance numbers.
Auditions were held in early January for eighth- to 12th-grade students. After a week of auditions, callbacks, and anxious anticipation of casting decisions, the show was ready to begin. Actors in Lexington Youth Theatre will now spend the weeks leading up to performances learning music, choreography and stage directions.
Jacob Bess, a senior at Lexington High School, portrays the role of Danny. "I'm excited for the opportunity to grow as both an actor and a person," Bess says. "Seeing how this is only my third show, having the lead provides me with an excellent opportunity to expand my talents and grow in my own confidence."
Cast members have shown enthusiasm while learning what they describe as "genuinely fun" music and preparing for the show. "I'm really excited for the costumes and performing the songs," says Rance Orrell, a freshman at West Davidson High School who portrays Doody, a Burger Palace boy. "Grease is a show with energy that's entertaining not only for actors to perform but for audience members to watch as well."
Each rehearsal brings the cast of "Grease" one step closer to performances. Bess says that he is "excited to put on a great show because I know that I and other highly talented individuals will be dead on in character and just rock."
Show dates for "Grease" are March 8-10 at the Edward C. Smith Civic Center. Tickets are $8 presale and $10 at the door. Presale tickets may be purchased through cast members or the civic center office.

Reviews for Dolloped Sweet Potatoes
"Extra yummy!!! I would never have thought of cream cheese! It's great!"
"Loved this sweet and tasty recipe. Only thing I would do different next time is not use the microwave. I think I'll boil the whole potatoe till almost done and then finish in the oven. Microwave made the outside too tough and I like the skin as well as the inside of a sweet potatoe. I didn't have any pumpkin pie spice so I just used some nutmeg and cinnamon. Whats in pumpkin pie spice anyway? Still tasted great!"
"Delicious! Everyone loved them, even folks who don't like sweet potatoes!"
"Can't wait to get to the store for the potatoes! This sounds absolutely delicious. I always bake my sweet potatoes in the microwave, but don't have a topping recipe that sounds this good. I have made cinnamon butter, but never thought of using cream cheese.Bobbye"
"Served this recently and everyone loved it. Will definitely use again and again.Linda McGarrity"

Valmont Bike Park Update from the BMA
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
Thanks to the Boulder Mountain Bike Alliance for making this recent update on Valmont Bike Park
Last week's snow made for some good photos ops, but caused some challenges for the construction crews. They moved inside and worked on the restroom building (yes, no porta johns!!!) while the snow melted. The windy and warm weather this week dried the site off, and let the crews get back to work on the bike features. Many of the elements of the construction are weather dependent, and we are hoping for an early spring to put the finishing touches on park construction. The photo below is one of the jumps installed on concrete footers....
Many of the jumps on site are made from formed, welded steel and will be surfaced with treated (anti-slip) 2 x 6's. Judd Devall from Alpine Bike Parks, has painstakingly excavted and poured the foundations for these jumps harmoniously with the landings. There are many more to install, including the wall rides. Why not dirt? Dirt lips wear out and require as much attention as a putting green. These steel and wood lips will flow perfect now and in 10 years, shovel and rake free. Many of the park elements have such planning and thought, which is why the construction phase is not complete. The Parks and Recreation Department is truely creating a new model for bike parks, and it takes time. The decking will not be installed until a few days before opening to minimize the urge to poach.
The City of Boulder Parks Department is working to select an opening date, but many elements of the construction phase are weather dependent. If the site is wet, the earth movers and trucks dig deep ruts into the site and cause more harm than good. The contractors and the Parks Department want this to open more then we do, and is pushing an already aggressive schedule.

Nice to meet you, I'm a new user.
And I wanted to bring in a suggestion right from the start.
Instead of making it long, I'm going to make it rather quick:
Variety in "human" weapons.
There are SO many modern weapons out there in the world.
And there are so many weapons that most people prefer over the M16, for example.
Yet, in the game, so far we only have the M16.
Now I suggest, for more variety, to add at least some more basic weapons to the game in later builds.
Like the G3, the old German Battle Rifle.
Or the FAMAS, the AK-47, and and some other popular weapons.
Not to forget shotguns and pistols.
I'm not demanding a huge load of weapons to be made that will become obsolete later in the game anyway.
But at least some variety would be nice, at least 3 different weapons, please?
I would really appreciate and love that.
If you don't consider it worth the effort, then so be it. I can live with that. But at least think about it.

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Reviews for Rosemary Lime Chicken
"I've been making this recipe for several years as a main course. Just recently, I've been using it to cook up my chicken breasts, then use the chicken throughout the week in salads or whatnot. This will be a staple in my house forever."
"EXCELLENT. EXCELLENT. EXCELLENT. I have made this often since it was first published in the May/June 2004 issue of ?Quick Cooking?. My other half loves chicken and this recipe is his all time favorite. I have given this recipe to many other people because he talks about it all the time. He tells everyone that it is the rosemary that makes the difference. For a man to do that, you have to know this is excellent. TIP: When a recipe calls for crushed spices rather than using the back of a spoon or mortar and piston, I use a small coffee bean grinder. This releases more of the flavor than the traditional methods. After using the grinder, I just wipe it out with a damp cloth. Easy clean up."
"Minus the rosemary"
"I use this recipe often. I prefer to use chicken broth over the wine. It's so fast and easy and surprisingly flavorful. This recipe introduced me to rosemary."
"I made this for dinner last night and it was delicious!! Very easy, too."

Post subject: Inaugural Concert on TV, Sunday, January 18, 2009
I must admit. This concert is much more likely to get me to risk the crowds, security, and traffic headaches, than the actual inaugural. But, even if one can't go, apparently HBO is airing the event Sunday evening and granting free access to nonsubscribers as well. Yea!
ETA: The only thing wrong with the info below is that I don't believe it will air live. The concert will be in the afternoon, but HBO will show it in the evening.

Springsteen and U2 line up for Obama celebration
Tue Jan 13 02:22:46 UTC 2009
By Paul J. Gough
NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - Denzel Washington, Beyonce, Bruce Springsteen, U2 and Stevie Wonder are among the stars who will participate in Sunday's inaugural opening celebration, which will air live on HBO.
"We Are One: The Obama Inaugural Celebration at the Lincoln Memorial" is the first of official events sponsored by the Presidential Inaugural Committee for Barack Obama's inauguration. HBO will carry the event exclusively from 7-9 p.m. EST; the premium channel will be available free to cable and satellite providers with an open signal.
Many of the details still are being finalized, but executive producer George Stephens Jr. said a key theme will be Obama's place in history among other presidents who have led the country in difficult times.
"It's not a celebration of victory; it's about the country coming together for the future we're going to face," Stephens said Monday. "There's a sense of history about it. Much of the music will be in the context of that history. The Lincoln Memorial is a kind of sacred site."
Producer-director Don Mischer agreed.
"More than anything, it's going to be a moving program," he said. "We're trying to pick performances and music that in one form or another are grounded in history."
The Lincoln Memorial has been the site of many iconic performances in American history, from Marian Anderson on Easter Sunday in 1939 to Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech a quarter-century later.
Mischer, Stephens and the organizers are on a hurried schedule, having only known for a few weeks that they'd be producing the show. And some performances are still being fleshed out.
"I can assure you that this show will not be over-rehearsed," Mischer joked.
Also scheduled to perform are Mary J. Blige, Garth Brooks, will.i.am., James Taylor, Josh Groban, Sheryl Crow, Herbie Hancock, Usher, John Mellencamp, John Legend, Shakira, Heather Headley, Jennifer Nettles and Renee Fleming. More performers will be announced, Stephens said. They will play music appropriate to the occasion and, in many cases, together.
Washington will read historic passages as will Queen Latifah, Jamie Foxx and Martin Luther King III. Obama, Vice President-elect Joe Biden and their families will be among the attendees. Obama also will appear onstage, though his role has not yet been disclosed.
Stephens praised the celebrities' response, saying that the A-list talent has been saying yes immediately and will come without entourages. The Presidential Inaugural Committee isn't awash in cash, so performers' travel costs aren't paid for, though their stay in Washington is.
"They're all coming on their own," Stephens said. "It's really unique, and they've all been generous about it."

|Volleyball earns academic honor
MOSCOW, Idaho – The Idaho volleyball team was one of 92 NCAA Division I women's volleyball teams to earn the American Volleyball Coaches Association's Team Academic Award for the 2010 season.
The award honors college and high school teams that maintain at least a 3.30 cumulative grade-point average on a 4.0 scale.
"For us to be honored as one of 92 teams in Division I is pretty amazing," Idaho coach Debbie Buchanan said. "We ask our players to be excellent in the classroom as well as on the court. They have to do both of those things at the highest level and our kids are doing that. We're going to keep striving to be better, and keep being in that top group."
In all, 481 teams were honored for the 2010-11 academic year, representing all three divisions of NCAA women's volleyball, NCAA men's volleyball, two-year women's colleges, NCCAA women and NAIA men and women.
"We always tell kids there's no reason not to be successful based on the tools that we have," Buchanan added. "It takes a really well-rounded player to be able to go on the road and travel and be able to get a 4.0 in the middle of a season, and we had quite a few kids who did that."

As seen on the National Geographic Channel.
Sale Price:
Bones of Turkana follows the story of famed paleoanthropologist Richard Leakey and his wife Meave, daughter Louise and their colleagues, as they work in the arid northern regions of Kenya's Turkana Basin to unravel the mysteries of human evolution. While one of the Leakeys' goals is to demonstrate the complexity and truth of human evolution, they also seek to show how the qualities that we proudly call human were all born in Africa. The story that emerges in the film is exciting, emotional, contemplative, occasionally funny, and in the end, transforming. This is Africa at its most beautiful and harshest.
This new National Geographic Special, featuring music by Paul Simon and the Kenya Boys Choir, follows Leakey and his team through perhaps the most formative of all landscapesthe place of all our pastsin a search for the traits that make us human.

Five years after the Second Civil War ends, human and Otherborn - humanlike creatures with superhuman DNA - stil struggle for peace. To ensure the continued rights of both, the FBI forms a Para-Ops team with a unique set of skills...
Leader of an Otherborn clan, half-breed vampire Knox Devereaux would do anything to find a cure for the anti-vamp vaccine slowly starving his people into extinction. When the FBI contacts him about leading a team of hand-selected Others on a mission to relcaim the stolen antidote, Knox accepts. His new assignment places him in direct contact with Special Agent Felicia Locke, the beauitful human he's craved since their very first meeting.
Felicia's experience as a hostage negotiator makes her a natural asset to a team divided by suspicion and prejudice. While being in close contact with Knox makes the desire she feels for him difficult to deny, Knox must marry a vampire, and she's not about to be his human lover on the side.
As the team embarks on its dangerous mission, Knox is determined to convince Felicia that the passion that connects them is enough to transcend both race and her human idea of morality. But Felicia is intent on teaching Knox that complete trust and love are the only forces strong enough to unite human and Other, once and forever.

Guest Post:
First, thank you for having me here today at Lovin' Me Some Romance!!
My husband and I arrived in Ireland recently (never been before, gorgeous scenery, friendly locals) and, as I was contemplating a topic for this blog post at Finnegan's Bar, I thought: why not compare my Para-Ops team heroes to beer? After all, people have different opinions on what makes for the best beer (or whether to even drink one), and I've created three very different heroes in half vampire/half human Knox Devereaux, human psychic shaman Caleb O'Flare, and werebeast Dex Hunt.
Beer falls into two categories: ale and lager. Ale uses a strain of yeast that ferments from the top of the brewing vessel down towards the bottom. Ales tend toward darker colors and have a depth of flavors that blend together. They present tastes of citrus, flower, honey, spice, chocolate, roasted coffee, etc. The Irish Guinness has been described as a mix between coffee and almost a chocolate flavor. Bitter and full.
Lager uses yeast that sinks to the bottom of the "wort." It has a more uniform flavor (is described as a mix of citrus, flowers, spices, and biscuits (or bread dough). The taste tends to be fairly subtle and the feel is usually sparkling and smooth. The colors can range the spectrum from very pale yellow to dark reddish brown and they usually have a light to medium white head. (O_O)
I like to think each of my heroes (whether a character in my new Para-Ops series or not) is a complex blend of light and dark. Some make a better first impression than others. Some are far different on the inside than they appear on the surface. Some leave you wanting, no craving more, while another might…oh horror of all horrors…leave a reader cold (I prefer conflicted). We all have varied tastes in men and storylines, and while I try my best to craft stories that appeal to the largest number of readers, I know I won't be able to please everyone, at least not every single time. But yet there's always the next story, just like there's always…? You got it, the next beer! If you're willing, that is.
Knox Devereaux
Beer type: Murphy's Irish Stout
In Chosen By Blood (Para-Ops Novel 1), my recent release with Berkley Sensation, Knox Devereaux is like a Murphy's Irish Stout. He's lighter than the super dark Guinness (his rawness is disguised by a royally elegant exterior and restrained manner), but as the team's vampire who must lead and save his clan, he's got plenty of bite.
Knox is a dharmire, a half vampire/half human who is the son of the Vampire Queen and a traitorous human who informed other humans how to kill vampires. He struggles to lead his clan, which is literally starving due to an FBI-engineered vaccine that changes the properties of human blood so it can't nourish vamps. At the same time, he believes it's only because of his human blood, the same human blood that his clan despises, that he's strong enough to lead. He's constantly trying to prove his loyalty to his people, and this means doing his duty to marry another vampire. Yet, he's a tad controversial because at the beginning of the novel, he's married to someone else, but in love and pursuing the heroine. You see, in the world of this series, vampires are NOT monogamous and the males are duty bound to marry and procreate with vampires. Yet even though Knox feels genuine affection for his married-for-convenience wife, Knox loves a human, Special Agent Felicia Locke. Even after he's widowed, he feels duty-bound to marry another vampire. Because of her strong human morals, she tries her best to stay away from Knox, and he lets her, until that is, they both join the FBI's first Para-Ops team.
Caleb O'Flare
Beer type: Peroni Nastro Azzurro
In Chosen By Fate (Para-Ops Novel 2), which comes out in October, Caleb O'Flare is the team's "pretty boy." Knox describes him this way:
"O'Flare was another one who'd take time to understand. He gave the impression that little bothered him. With shaggy blondish-brown hair and green eyes, he'd be almost pretty but for the strong, angular bone structure he'd inherited from his Native American mother. Plus, he was tall and broad-shouldered, with a long, muscular body that would look equally at home slouching in a chair or rappelling down a mountain. According to his bio, mountain climbing was a favorite hobby of his. The face would be useful for missions requiring the assistance of a swayable female, but Knox would have to trust the body to protect his life. And possibly save it. By all accounts, O'Flare had proven his skill as a medic time and again. Plus, his psychic powers had saved not just his own ass, but those of several soldiers in his previous platoons."Just as Knox suspects, Caleb is a mass of seething complexity beneath his handsome surface. He's funnier and more relaxed (smoother and lighter) than Knox will probably ever be, but this doesn't make him better…just different. Caleb is a little like a Peroni Nastro Azzurro, an accessible pale lager-style European beer with a light, almost bubbly flavor, more like a soda than a beer. But there's depth and richness in him, too.
Dex Hunt
Beer type: Amber Bock
And Dex… As I write the proposal for Book 3 in this series, I'm reacquainting myself with Dex, a werebeast cast out by his own people. He pushes people away from the get go, yet at times he can't help but show us the humor, compassion, and tenderness that is more outwardly prevalent in Caleb than Knox. Dex is an Anheuser-Busch dark lager that 1) has a nutty, roasted aroma; 2) has a "hint of caramel malt sweetness;" and 3) looks great.
Here's a little peek at Dex.
"You gonna take that job?"Cheers!
Recalling the call he'd gotten several days ago, Dex smiled, the expression so rare for him that it actually felt foreign. Director Kyle Mahone had practically choked the offer out, causing Dex to laugh long and hard. Unfortunately, he'd been able to think of little else since. Today, when the mage had asked him what was "up," Dex had flippantly replied he was considering a new job. "Depends," he said now. The sirens were getting
louder, but he waited for her question.
"Depends on what?"
"Whether they're afraid of the big, bad wolf."
"You want them to be afraid?"
He ignored the slight reproof in her gaze. Innocent, he thought again. But she'd get over that really quick, he was sure. "If they're afraid enough, they won't even try to keep me on a tight leash. They'll just leave me the fuck alone and let me do what I do best."
"What's that?"
"Survive to live another day."
Well, I'm a bit loopy from jet lag but I hope this post has entertained and informed you. To me, my heroes rock. They are imperfectly perfect. Each must overcome dark and painful pasts in order to become their best selves and the way that's going to happen is with the love of one female. They might fight their destinies out of habit, fear, or stubbornness, but ultimately they'll embrace them and their women.

text: Hey everyone so, my grandfather recently gave me a japanese arisaka type 99 chambered in 7.7. the problem is this arisaka has been sporterized (new and bent bolt handle, sport stock and scope added. I really want to convert it back to its original version which will include stock, bolt handle, no scope, original boyonet (if i can find it) original steel sights). my rifle does have some rare items the mum is in tact as it was captured during the war all the markings are clear as day the metal is in perfect condition, the safety is of the decorative type unlike the late war type. so my question for everyone is, is it possible to unbend the bolt handle? where to find original parts and what parts have numbers on them that need to match? thanks in advance for any and all advice and answers.

My daddy has serious heart issues and such products like Hawthorn and Cayenne are very helpful to him. Only it is sad that tinctures so quickly go to an end and one must buy another so quickly. But as they are much better than capsules or tablets (because they go directly on your tongue roots/sensors and go directly to your organism), you have no choice just buy it.
After under going so many side effects with so many hypertensive drugs. I decided to research all of the ingredients in Nature's Answer,CardioNutriv Extract,all of the information was positive,so I decided to give it a try. The product works and I have been using it for about10 months.about 5months ago I discover that IHerbs sells Cardio Nutriv cheaper and the volume I buys allows me to take advagnage of the free shipping! I'm happy to say,I no longer take prescription drugs for my High blood pressure. I feel so delighted that all of the side effects I was experiencing with the high blood pressure drugs is behind me now. I will also add that my doctor is not please with my decision to use Cardio Nutriv,but he will admit that it is good that my blood pressure reading has gone from 175/95 taking Altenolol to 128/83{as of this review date}taking Nature.s Answer CardioNutriv Extract.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -
A trio of Alabama student-athletes were named to the 2013 Capital One Academic All-District IV Women's At-Large First Team, selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America it was announced this week. Junior gymnast Kim Jacob, junior golfer Stephanie Meadow and senior tennis player Antonia Foehse earned first-team honors and are now on the Academic All-America ballot.
Schools are divided into eight geographic districts across the United States and Canada with the district winners advancing to the national ballot. Each school is limited to three student-athletes on the district ballot. Alabama is one of just five schools in the nation to have all of its nominees earn All-District honors and have a chance to earn Academic All-America honors.
"We're very excited to have all three of our nominees advance to the Academic All-America ballot," UA Associate Athletics Director for Student Services Jon Dever said. "Kim, Stephanie and Antonia all work extremely hard to excel both academically and athletically. They are tremendous ambassadors for the University of Alabama and we are very proud of all they have accomplished."
The Tide has been extremely prolific in women's all-district honors, earning 10 over the last four years alone. Jacob and Meadow both carry perfect 4.0 GPAs for their career while Foehse carries a 3.98.
The 2013 Southeastern Conference Women's Tennis Scholar-Athlete of the Year, Foehse helped lead the Crimson Tide to the NCAA Championship round of 16, clinching a team-best six matches in 2013. A two-time ITA Scholar-Athlete and two-time member of the SEC Academic Honor Roll, she earned Second Team All-SEC honors and also earned the ITA Southern Region Cissie Leary Award for Sportsmanship this season. The Waldbroel, Germany, native is a member of the Emerging Tide Leaders program. She is also captain of this year's squad and was nationally ranked in doubles while carrying a 3.98 career grade point average in psychology.
A member of the Tide's 2011 and 2012 NCAA Championship gymnastics team, Jacob is a seven-time All-American who has twice been named the SEC Gymnastics Scholar-Athlete of the Year. She earned the 2013 NCAA Elite 89 Award, which goes to the student-athlete with the highest cumulative grade point at each of the NCAA's national championships and led the Tide to its third top-three finish in as many years this season. A two-year Scholastic All-American, Jacob is the 2013 NCAA Regional Uneven Bars and Balance Beam Champion and captain of the 2013 squad. A native of Raleigh, N.C., she carries a 4.0 career GPA in exercise science.
Meadow leads the nation in scoring average going into this year's national championships where she and the rest of the Tide are looking to win back-to-back national titles after securing Alabama's first last season. The 2013 SEC Women's Golf Player and Scholar-Athlete of the Year, Meadow is a three-time All-America and All-SEC selection. She holds school record with seven career tournament wins, including the 2013 SEC and NCAA Regional Championship and the 2011 NCAA East Regional championship. A two-time National Golf Coaches Association All-American Scholar, she is also a two-time member of the SEC Academic Honor Roll. The Jordanstown, Northern Ireland, native carries a 4.0 GPA for her career in accounting.

Let the radius of the outer circle be $R$. Let the radii of the $10$ circles be $r_1, r_2, \ldots r_{10}$ As the area of a circle is is $A=\pi r^2$, you want $\frac {\pi R^2}{10}=\pi (r_i^2-r_{i-1}^2)$, with $r_{10}=R$ and $r_0=0$. This gives $r_i=R\sqrt {\frac {i}{10}}$
Just for a lark (and to confirm my comment), below is (almost) all the steps required to build the picture using compass and straightedge. (Created using
The steps skipped: starting from the original circle, take its radius, and divide that by 10. (Arbitrary integer division is available in compass and straightedge.)

Who Wants One?
Latest News
Who Wants One?Posted byMay 11, 2011Filed under:1672
My favourite Track would have to be "Little Weapon" because in this song Lupe Mastered Flow like Crazy! The lyrics for that song are just amazing and very unique. That's why i like Lupe in particular, he is very unique unlike other artists. :)
Hmm.. I HAVE to say " Failure". When I first heard this I was genuinely confused, and in love at the same time. It was the first time I had to keep a song on replay for days, just to understand it. It made me feel like Hip-Hop would never die as long as Lupe was there.
The Emperor's Soundtrack With fifteen in the clip and one in the hold Hallway wall full of bricks, only some of us know. that line always get me
It's hard to pick one, i have three favorites, '' Intruder Alert'', ''Hip Hop Saved My Life'' and ''Words I Never Said''. But if i have to pick one, i think i'll pick ''Words I Never Said''. That song inspired me a lot, even though I'm only thirteen. That song inspired me to stand up for myself, and my political views. Before, i was kinda afraid to express myself, I was afraid of being different. I have been a Lupe Fiasco fan since i heard ''Hip Hop Saved My Life'' when i was EIGHT. Lupe is my biggest inspiration, and he'll always kinda be.
"Hurt Me Soul" Always been my favorite. As a teenager growing up your problems seem to be unmatched by anyones but whenever i listened to this song my problems seemed to be nothing compared to the situations Lupe speaks about in his chorus, and i think thats always been Lupe's goal, to open peoples eyes to what others grow through so that we can understand and maybe one day try to find a solution.
Pick one? That's brutal. I got different favorites for different aspects of music that I appreciate. Little Weapon and American Terrorist for the bluntness and realness with real world issues, Outty 5000, The Die and Failure for sheer madness wit the content/lyrics (The whole album "The Cool" was insane), and Pressure, Till I get there, and Hurt Me soul are some of my favorites as far as how they sound aesthetically. Conscious rappers are overlooked nowadays and probably will be for the rest of history in hip hop music, but if there is anyone who can turn this around, it's Lupe. Praise, Love, Appreciate. I've seen LU like 5 times now and am lookin for somethin big when he comes through the northwest! PDX
'Hurt Me Soul'. Hands down. An honest song about his feelings toward Hip-Hop . . And that last verse goes hard.
"THE COOL"- Lu's storytelling is unsurpassed, and this record is the best example... He paints a picture with lines like "not at all nervous when he dug to the surface/ tarnshed gold chain is what he loosened up the dirt with." This song also has my favorite line ever... "workin' like a hmm/reverse archeologist/ except his buried treasure was sunshine." The whole Cool story should be turned into a short film or even a full length movie....it has been one week since I was fortunate enough to see Lu in concert.... I highly doubt I will ever see a better concert and it was a night I will never forget!
has to be american terrorist. shows how bold lupe was by talkin on topics that others would be too fearful to speak upon. bibles, torahs, and glorious qurans. the books that take you to heaven and let you meet the lord there. have become misinterpreted reasons for warfare. we read em with blind eyes, i guarantee you theres more there. too sick!!
One of my favorite Lupe songs has to be Dumb It Down. I love the way that he challenges hip hop to be more than what most people perceive. He is able to have meaning in his lyrics and does not ever feel the need to dumb down anything for the average listener. He always has a deeper meaning than what is first seen and that's what I really love about him.
My favorite song has to be "Daydreamin'." It was one of the first songs I heard from Lu that really had an impact on me. In the first verse he has incredible metaphors on society which I had never heard anything like before and as someone who hates this garbage drugs/sex rap that's all over the airwaves, I thought, and still think, that the second verse is one of the best I've ever heard. Plus his flow is nasty and the original song is incredible, too.

He murders the rap game in a matter of minutes. Plus his flow is nasty.
Superstar is by far my favorite Lupe song ever. The track was released during a really happy time in my life so anytime I play it I immediately think of those great times and it puts me in a good mood instantly. The tone/mood of the song is really hopeful and optimistic so when I'm need of motivation I turn to this song.
Lupe is by far my favorite rapper and I'd have to say my favorite song, which I also think is his most underrated is "Hurt Me Soul." Every line in that song is unbelievable. Lupe is a lyrical master rather than just doing what most other rappers do and try to be gangster. He drops knowledge and raps about something meaningful rather than killing people or slammin sluts. I love how he has a list of a ton of horrid things in the world and follows it with "all the world's ills.. sittin on chrome 24 inch wheels, like that." Besides that, my new favorite song is Coming up because that track is just hotttt
Dear Wasalu, Actually I've been thinking about this a lot. My favorite song is "Superstar" because of these lyrics, "Everybody gets a nice autograph picture." 'nuff said. Love Ellen
My favorite Lupe song is "Dumb It Down." Everyone was talking about how much they loved Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor, but they didn't understand the deeper meaning behind the songs or the album as a whole's message. So when he was told that his lyrics were too complex for the "average" listener, instead of "dumming down" his message and wordplay to conform to our "dummed-down" society and what they think hip-hop is or should be, Lupe stepped his game up even higher than before and wrote this classic. He was saying to hip-hop and the world that just because he's on a higher level with his music shouldn't mean he can only go to a certain level, but hip-hop and society needed to become more knowledgeable. Not only so they can free their minds and understand the message in his music but so that they can open their eyes to the surrounding world. You must come up because he's not going down.
Words I Never Said! It's so true about the corruption in America and the situation over here. The beat is SO great, and don't even get me started on the rhymes and lyrics. You seem like a very intelligent person and in my opinion your are the second best rapper right now (next to Kanye). Keep on keepin on man! God bless, Philip
LOL theres never any comments on regular posts but this one is off the charts haha but i would like one Beautiful Lasers!
I heard 'words i never said' on the Colbert Report the other day and was astonished to see someone of your caliber speaking out against the contrived war on terror, it's very refreshing. I listened to the rest of the album today (a couple times) to come to conclusion you are an intelligent individual only trying to speak the truth. I applaud your effort and urge you to keep up the good fight, you're not alone. I'm really digging 'Beautiful lasers' and 'State run' radio too.
Glory, off of Fahrenheit 1/15 Part II: Revenge of the Nerds. I've been following Lupe since 04 and the first time that I heard Glory it brought tears to my eyes, I almost broke down. I was going through a really rough time in my life and that song helped me through it. Not only did it help me through it but it inspired me to become a better person. It made me decide to be a more active human being. It made me drop listening to ear candy and develop a taste for food for thought. It made me open my eyes and realize that we are in a simulated reality controlled by our government. Any time I'm feeling down I listen to that song and it brings me right back up to myself. It still remains my favorite song to this day. I made countless friends sit down and listen to it while reading the lyrics in hopes that they would feel the same way as me. Through all of it though, it helped me realize that when you are intelligent and enlightened that all you want to do is spread that same feeling of peace, love, & understanding, but sadly, you can show people water, but can't make them drink it. It even inspired me to become an artist myself, and I know one day Lu and I will work together, but until that day...I'm going to respect the position I play, never letting my heart reflect the conditions in which I stay.
words i never said for sure. because your talking about how messed up the media and the government is. and how twisted the qar is. And your trying to represent activism instead of all the majority just sittin back worrying about what actor is going out with who now, when we the people should be standing up for our rights and let our voice be heard instead of just complaining to go out and do somethin
ALL BLACK EVERYTHING is my favorite song. There's so much wisdom in that track. It's one of those songs I could have on repeat all day. I can't stop daydreaming about his lyrics. Like Lupe said we can't do nothing about the past, we can change the way we think though. Thanks Lupe for creating such a powerful song. We are not losers, we are LASERS!
all black everything, cos i love lupes perceptive if the world was different and his lyrics are totally genius!!
I think its IMPOSSIBLE to just pick one favorite song, so I'm gonna have give a quick breakdown on my top 5 :) BMF: I love the switch up into POSITIVE lyrics, shining some light on people like Malcolm X and Martin Luther, verses Big Meech and Larry Hoover. And the idea of "building minds faster" is just beautiful. Words I Never Said: Who doesn't love and respect a song that speaks nothing but the truth?! (You want the realness? Well, I gotcha!) Go To Sleep: (#1 on my itunes with almost 800 plays!) :D CRAZY wordplay and metaphors! It seems like I catch something new every time I listen to this song. This is an eargasmic song at its greatest. Put You On Game: The lyrics and the way Lupe dictates the words is incredible. His style of rapping is so unique, unlike anything I've ever heard before. This song has a flow thats on a whole 'nother level of UNTOUCHABLE. Beautiful Lasers: Lyrics that cut so deep, its been a LONG time since I've had a song that touches my soul the way that this one does. I love to see the positivity and bright energy that came from such a dark and negative time. Remember, love always shines :)
My favorite Lupe Fiasco song right now is Words I Never Said. It's my favorite because it speaks the truth, like all of Lupe's songs, but it made me want to go do some more research on side effects of painkillers, and the Gaza strip and everything else mentioned. I also enjoyed the music video and watched the trailer or the song a million times before the song came out.
out of my head is by far one of the best songs i have heard in a long time that i cant get sick of....and its the only one i've been listening to for the past two weeks

"By now, the changes in hair, skin and body are more overt," says Cunnane-Phillips. "At some point, you're going to be in peri- or actual menopause, and the hormonal changes reallykick in. Your hair follicles are shrinking, and the change hasbecome noticeable. You may also see short, fine hairs near the temples and hairline." What does this mean for your cut? "You need to be gentlerwith your styling," says -Cunnane-Phillips. "Cut back on heat tools and use lower temperature settings. Do all you can to preserve your hair's integrity and health."
The hormonal shifts of menopause may also affect "the curl of the hair, the follicles' strength and the growth rate. Androgen-dependent alopecia [doctor-speak for genetic hair thinning] may be triggered by menopause. In that case, minoxidil [commercial name: Rogaine] has been shown to be very effective," says Mirmirani.
Women of this age must alsodeal with more visible signs of aging. Skin is more lax. Finelines remain, even when you're not smiling or frowning. You may have some drooping along the jaw. Overall muscle tone may begin to decrease, adding some bulk to your frame. And as the fat layer in the dermis begins to thin, some women appear more angularand their features stronger—a change that can add character to your face but also make it a little more masculine. A good response to all of the above: strategic layering. "Look at Madonna and Michelle Pfeifer," says Tricomi. They have sexy, layered, slightly angled cuts that soften their faces. And they get the length right: Their hair is long enough to narrow their silhouette, without looking like the high-maintenance style of a twenty-something.
"This is actually a great time for a shoulder-length style," says Hershberger. "If your hair is getting finer or thinner, going longer than that can look stringy—while going too short can make hair look sparse." Midlength cuts with movement, like a longer, layered bob, will soften your features and make hair look healthy and youthful. "Go for a shape that's a little rounder, not quite as blunt," says Hunt.
The consensus of our experts: This is not a decade for going to extremes of long or short. Nor is it a time for just giving up. "You see people turn 50 and cut their hair really short," says Tricomi. "If you're going short because you have the petite figure for it, great, but don't do it just because you think your look doesn't matter anymore." You should also avoid the opposite extreme: long hair that falls toward your butt. "For one thing, it adds bulk to your body. For another, the cut has to work from the front and the back," says Blandi. "What's unsettling is when you see a woman from behind and think she's a teenager; then she turns around and she's 55. I think it's more powerful to look like a stunning, confident woman in her fifties—from every angle."
