Q: What services are provided at the UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center?
A: The direct services provided by the UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center include full-time and part-time individualized intervention, behavioral therapy (Applied Behavior Analysis), physical and occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, and diagnostic and evaluation services.
Q: How do I enroll my child in the UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center?
A: To begin the intake process we ask that you complete a "Request for Services" form found on the Admissions and Fees page of this website. We will then send you a formal intake packet for your review. Upon receiving the completed intake packet, we will request a face-to-face meeting to discuss how we can work together to provide the individualized services you are seeking.
Q: How much is tuition?
A: Tuition and fees vary according to the services you are seeking. Please contact us for specific details regarding tuition and fees based on the specific services you are seeking.
Q: Where is the UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center located?
A: Our Center is located near UNTs main campus at 490 S. Interstate 35E in Denton, TX. Click here for directions to the UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center.
Q: What is the client to staff ratio?
A: We provide 1:1 individualized intervention for each client.
Q: Who is delivering services to my child?
A: All of our intervention coordinators are degreed in the field of autism, autism intervention, behavior analysis, special education, child and human development, educational psychology, or other related fields. Most associate interventionists are either degreed or pursuing a degree in a related field, and are closely supervised by BCBA's and highly trained graduate students. Our executive leaders, directors, and executive staff members hold Doctoral degrees in a field related to autism. All direct service providers are licensed or board certified in their areas of expertise. In addition, all staff members at the UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center exemplify our core values on a daily basis.
Q: What affiliation does the UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center have with the University of North Texas?
A: The UNT Autism Center is housed within the College of Education at UNT. We also collaborate with other departments across campus in an effort to provide high quality services and training, and to conduct, publish, and disseminate autism research. Some of the departments with which the Center currently collaborates include: The Department of Educational Psychology, the Autism Intervention Program, The Department of Behavior Analysis, The Department of Speech and Hearing sciences, and the Counseling and Higher Education Department. In addition, the Center works closely with the Special Education and Kinesiology Programs, and with the Office of Disability Accommodations.
Q: Why is my insurance provider saying they will not cover ABA therapy?
A: State of Texas House Bill 451, passed in 2009, requires a health benefit plan to provide coverage to an enrollee under the age of 10 who is diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder. This coverage applies to all generally recognized services prescribed by the enrollee's primary care physician. In Texas, the law states that ABA may not always be considered a generally recognized service, which allows some insurance companies to deny coverage for ABA. Some insurance providers also interpret ABA to be an experimental or unproven intervention, and they may require ABA to be delivered by a certified health care provider. The UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center strives to work with insurance providers to ensure the maximum reimbursements for all applicable services.
Q: Are there training opportunities for parents, professionals, and other community members?
A: Yes! The UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center is committed to providing training opportunities for parents, professionals, and other community members so that they can develop a deeper understanding of autism and how to handle the many challenges associated with raising a family member with autism. In collaboration with other UNT departments, we plan on providing training in a wide variety of areas. In addition, the UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center hosts an annual conference each summer featuring nationally recognized keynote speakers and presentations by autism researchers and experts.
Q: I am not sure if my child has autism. Can you help us?
A: Yes! Diagnostic testing and evaluations are an important part of our direct services. We have two state-of-the-art diagnostics rooms in which our highly qualified diagnosticians provide diagnostic evaluations and assessments in a variety of areas. We will provide you with a detailed assessment and plan for intervention based on the results of the evaluation.
Q: What are evidence-based practices?
A: Evidence-based practices are interventions and strategies which have been proven to be effective in treating children with autism spectrum disorders. The UNT Kristin Farmer Autism Center will only provide services based on practices that have consistently been demonstrated to be effective by systematic research (for example, by the National Autism Center, The National Professional Development Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders, and our own research investigations).

ROCKFORD, Ill. – The Northern Illinois men's tennis team lost its first home match of the season, falling 5-2 to Cleveland State at Boylan Tennis Center. The Huskies snapped their eight-match home unbeaten streak against the Vikings.
"We let one slip away today," said Head Coach Patrick Fisher. "After winning the first five sets in singles we were in complete control and we didn't finish the job and that's really disappointing. There's not much to say other than that. When we get up on somebody we need to finish and we didn't. I believe in our guys though. I know we will be in this position again and we will learn from today."
Freshman Dor Amir and sophomore Axel Lagerlof won at No. 1 doubles, 8-6, but the Huskies were unable to come up with another victory at Nos. 2 or 3 and lost the doubles point.
Amir came up in singles as well with a 6-2, 6-3 victory over Ali Shabib at No. 2. Newcomer Frederic Cadieux also won for the Huskies at No. 4, defeating Jorg van der Vloet, 6-3, 7-6. In the rest of the matches, the Huskies were unable to leg out the third and final set to overcome the Vikings lead and fell 5-2.
Northern Illinois is now 8-3 this season and lost its first home match of the season. The Huskies return to action March 3 for a doubleheader against Southern Illinois and Eastern Illinois and will travel to Wisconsin March 4.

Drought conditions have really hurt area farmers this year, but most wheat and barley producing states have dodged a grain-withering fungus.
The grain-shriveling disease, or scab, has cost wheat, durum and barley farmers billions of dollars in crop losses in the past.
The disease can also sicken humans and livestock.
Scab is triggered by wet weather at flowering time.
The warm and windy conditions replaced excessive moisture this year in most states during that stage.

360 key won't read anything. 360usbpro will. and yes most slims from the last year cannot be hacked
is yours a year or more old?
hello was wanting to check if i was gonna use X360Key on a slim would i be able to READ the drive key on any SLIM, or are there some drive that we cant yet read the info we need ??? if so what models are unreadable ??
360 key won't read anything. 360usbpro will. and yes most slims from the last year cannot be hacked

Piracy is like masturbation, whether you do it or not, we don't want to hear about it.
I swear everybody gets told thanks at least 20 times for each time someone actually hits the thanks button.
if you're looking for tutorial links, look in the other guys signature.
Where to find the crap we're talking about
He said most slims FROM THE LAST YEAR matey
also, i think the OP means can he read the key from a slim to use on the xkey, as you need the key off the drive for the xkey to work...

1 If you have lost your DVD key then you need to RGH (google it) the slim to get your DVD key and if your slim is less than a year old you might have a new motherboard which you cant glitch.
2 If your just trying to flash your drive then check here c4eva Speaks! | automated irc logs, updated instantly whenever and wherever c4eva speaks to see if firmware is available for it asuming you have at least opened the slim and checked which drive you have. If firmware is available open the drive and check the numbers on the micro chip to see which micro chip you have and decide if you can add a switch or you need a new PCB/kamakazi method to flash it.
3 If you really do just want your key then last time I checked you dint need a USB pro as some other chipsets (eg via VT6421A) will dump and show you the key. But you will still need it though to take a full dump and flash.
Can someone confirm this is still the case. Mine got dumped on ebay
all i want to know is can i read the drive key via a CK3 Probe so i can add Keyfile to X360Key... i dont want to flash the drive :P but i do need Key to use Xkey
also i dont have a slim yet but soon i will... so is there anyway i can check which drive is inside a slim. like the red, yellow etc cable trick on the phat?
Not really as the vast majority are liteons so unless the shop lets you open up and see then its a crap shot... Try and hit a mfr date of 2010 for the best chance. And unless its hitachi or liteon 1175 then the key can be read by sata and comoatible chipset...

Another in the series of Arctic cold fronts will approach the region today from the Great Lakes. As the system passes through the region during the overnight hours, some light snow is expected to develop. Moisture availability Is lacking with this system, hence only light snow is forecast with very minor accumulations expected. Colder air will settle back in behind this feature to close out the weekend.
Another storm system will develop on the southwestern extent of the Arctic frontal system as it stalls south of the area Sunday. The low pressure area, or storm center, will move from the lower Mississippi Valley Sunday morning to the vicinity of the southern Mid Atlantic by Sunday evening, and then quickly out to sea by Monday morning.
The Capital Region will be on the northern periphery of the precipitation shield associated with this storm. Thus, some light snow is expected to develop over the area perhaps as early as late in the day on Sunday, and lasting through Sunday night. Accumulations are expected to be minor, as the brunt of the moisture and dynamics associated with this system remain far further south.
High pressure slowly builds back into the region in the wake of the storm to start the work week. Fair weather looks to remain over the region for the course of the coming week, with strong high pressure settling over the area by the midweek period. As the high pressure area moves east of the region, later in the week, temperatures will slowly rebound to near seasonable readings after spending the majority of the week well below normal.
..Below is the official forecast for the Capital Region and vicinity...
Today: Mostly sunny to start with increasing high clouds during the day. High near 30. South winds 5 to 15 MPH.
Tonight: Overcast with a chance of light snow and flurries overnight. Low near 15. South to southwest winds early, shifting northwest late at night, 5 to 10 MPH. Chance of snow is 40 percent. Accumulations of a dusting to an inch or new snow possible.
Sunday: More clouds than sunshine with a slight chance of light snow late in the afternoon. High in the upper 20's. Northwest winds 5 to 10 MPH. Chance of snow is 30 percent. Little if any additional snow accumulation expected.
Sunday Night: Overcast with periods of light snow possible. Low near 15. Northwest winds 5 to 15 MPH. Chance of snow is 40 percent. Snow accumulations of a dusting to an inch of new snow possible.
Monday: A chance of light snow and/or snow showers early. Otherwise, a mix of sun and clouds during the afternoon. High in the lower 20's. Northwest winds 5 to 15 MPH. Chance of snow is 20 percent.
Tuesday: Mostly sunny and cold. High near 15 and low near zero.
Wednesday: Mostly sunny. High near 25 and low near zero.
Thursday: Mostly sunny. High near 35 and low near 15.
Friday: Partly sunny. High near 35 and low near 20.

Due to an extremely high demand for electricity in this week's frigid temperatures, as well as weather-related loss of some generation, Delmarva Power is asking its customers to conserve energy.
Officials say the demand for electricity is expected to increase as the extremely cold weather lingers for the next several days. If health permits, customers are asked to conserve electricity, especially from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. to 7 p.m.
To conserve electricity, Delmarva Power recommends that customers:
> Set thermostats lower than usual, if health permits;
> Turn off electric lights and appliances that are not needed or are not in use;
> Gather in a central room where there is an alternative heat source;
> At night, cover windows with drapes or blankets to minimize heat loss and during the day, open blinds to let the sun warm the home.
Officials say conserving electricity will help ensure adequate power supplies. Delmarva Power will continue to carefully monitor power supply conditions.

Jan. 10, 2012
UCLA swept the first ever Pac-12 Gymnastics weekly awards, with sophomore Samantha Peszek and senior Tauny Frattone being awarded the Pac-12 Gymnast of the Week and Pac-12 Special Performance of the Week honors, respectively, for the week of Jan. 2-8.
Peszek, a native of Indianapolis, Ind., led the No. 1 Bruins past No. 5 Utah on Jan. 8 in a meet that went down to the wire. UCLA earned the nail-biting win, 196.075-196.025, in its Conference opener in front of a sellout crowd. UCLA jumped out to a fast start on the vault behind career-highs from Peszek (9.925) and Frattone (9.95). On the uneven bars, Peszek's 9.825 helped keep UCLA's lead to over a point. A shaky beam rotation by UCLA cut the lead considerably, but it was Peszek's 9.825 that helped keep UCLA ahead going into the last rotation, and her 9.875 on floor helped secure the victory.
Tying her career best of 9.95 on the vault, Frattone's performance in the opening rotation provided the Bruins with a strong start and the highest event score in the nation on any event during opening week. A native of Lake Forest, Calif., Frattone also performed well on the floor, earning a 9.875 to finish in a tie for second place.
The Special Performance of the Week nod is Frattone's third of her career; she won the award twice in 2011. This is Peszek's first Gymnast of the Week award. She had previously earned Special Performance of the Week honors last season.
UCLA will next travel to California on Jan. 15 at 2pm.
Also Nominated:
Gymnast of the Week: Aubree Cristello, ARIZ; Stephanie McAllister, UTAH; Ruby Engreitz, WASH.
Special Performance of the Week: Katie Matusik, ARIZ; Kailah Delaney, UTAH; McKenzie Fechter, WASH.

This year's flu season has arrived and is spreading progressively across the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which reported on Friday that influenza activity is "elevated" in all areas throughout the nation.
Officials at the CDC are tracking this season's flu closely because the primary strain going around this year is H1N1, which targets young and middle-aged adults mostly and makes them especially sick.
Unlike other flu strains, which usually put the elderly at risk, the H1N1 virus is hitting younger adults the most.
"What we wonder now is whether there is a greater risk among kids and young adults," said CDC flu expert Dr. Joe Bresee.
Influenza can also be deadly, killing anywhere from 3,000 to 49,000 American adults and children each year. So far this year, 20 children have died from the flu, with over 2,600 being hospitalized due to the severity of symptoms.
The flu season kicked off this year in the southern areas of the nation and is now making its way to the Midwest, where people are being sickened at steadily growing rates.
So far, the CDC reports that there are 20 states with high flu activity levels, although 12 states – Arizona, Connecticut, Hawaii, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New York, North Dakota, Rhode Island, and Vermont – are reporting minimal flu activity at this time.
Because the H1N1 flu makes people especially sick, patients are flocking to area emergency rooms, where physicians and other health care professionals are working round-the-clock.
Flu experts are warning patients with the H1N1 flu to stay away from others to avoid passing the infectious disease along.
Meanwhile, the CDC says that it's still not too late to get a flu shot, which the agency reports prevented 6.6 million cases of the flu last year, keeping another 80,000 out of the hospital if they did contract the flu despite getting vaccinated.
There are also medications available that can ease the flu symptoms – like cough, fever, weakness and muscle aches – so long as they're taken within 24 hours or so of coming down with influenza. Tamiflu is another drug that can shorten the duration of the flu, while also easing symptoms of the disease.
Not since 2009, during the swine flu pandemic, has the H1N1 virus made a come back – and the CDC is keeping its eye on the virus to look for any pattern changes that may indicate it's spreading faster or making people sicker over time.
This year's flu puts people with other chronic conditions even more at risk of becoming severely sick, including those with asthma and diabetes.
The CDC says the best way to prevent the flu is to get a flu shot and wash your hands thoroughly and often.

Being a Human Barbie has become a coveted spot in the world of beauty. First, it was Valeria Lukyanova and now a new Human Barbie has arrived on the scene and she is only 16 years old. Lolita Richi has offered up pictures of how she looks more like a Barbie doll and she insists that it is all natural. According to Hollywood Life on Saturday, the young model claims she has not had any surgery and her looks are all hers with the exception of her round contact lenses and a few wigs.
The verdict on who looks more like a Human Barbie is still out. The opportunity to understand why it is so important for any woman to look like a doll has people wanting more information, but even so the claims of no plastic surgery are tough to believe. Offering up over 20 photos to prove her looks, the woman poses to provide proof that give people different angles of her Barbie looks, but none reflect the typical pictures seen by Valeria Lukyanova.
The Ukrainian teenager has viewers intrigued on how she looks so much like the doll with a tiny waistline and the Barbie doll gaze, but Lolita claims she's never dieted or had plastic surgery. Yet, she still could pass as the living form of the doll. Another odd point that applies for Valeria and Lilita is that both women come from Ukraine. This makes their claims of no surgery impossible to confirm and they seem to be almost unreachable when it comes to the world of modeling.
While nobody knows for sure if Lolita Richi is planning on sharing her looks with major magazines or is considering a world tour, someone definitely needs to go to Ukraine to see which woman looks more like a Human Barbie. Then we need to call Human Ken and arrange a date. It sounds like a reality show in the making!

Not sure if I have missed something obvious but I have just got through my first season on FM11 and in the summer I was allowed to sign (as were all clubs) players in June and not have to wait until 1/7 as previous versions.
The players would actually join the teams straightaway (as long as was not a bosman) and not wait until 1/7.
Is this a change that has occurred in real life??

Women's Track and Field Win 6 Races At Mt. SAC Opener Meet
For most teams, one track and field meet certainly doesn't define a season. But the results of one meet can often dictate the course of a season. The 2013 Pasadena City College women's track and field established itself as a conference and state contender with its showing Friday at the Mt. SAC Season Opener meet held at Mt. San Antonio College.
Behind a pair of first place finishes by middle distance runner Diane Lombardi, the Lancers put on a clinic with six event victories, all in track races in one of the finest meet performances in PCC women's track and field history.
Sprinter Lai Launi Cox (Upland High) won the 100 meter dash at 13.16 seconds, Breanna Clark (Dorsey) captured the 200 meters in 26.15 seconds, and Omhunique Browne (San Marino High) was victorious in the 400 meters at 60.13 seconds. All three are Lancers' freshmen. The sophomore Lombardi (Crescenta Valley) won the 800 meters (2:29.16) and easily bolted to first in the 1,500 meters at 5:02.59, nearly four seconds ahead of the second place finisher.
PCC also won the 4x100 meter relay race as the squad of Clark, Browne, Marquetta Stokes (Oakland Tech) and Taylor Matthews (Rancho Verde) scored a time of 48.88 seconds.
In the javelin, Lancer Rossha Harris (Lou Dantzler Prep, Los Angeles), placed second with a throw of 34.18 meters, the best of any freshman thrower by all colleges participating. Harris was also sixth in the shot put (9.70 meters).
PCC's 4x400 relay squad of Sojourner Marable, (Bishop Alemany), Browne, Matthews, and Clark took third at 4:13.46. In the second heat, another Lancers squad won that race (4:14.86) and took fourth overall behind the racing of Erica Payne (Monrovia High), Stokes, Cox, and Sophia Amodia (Glendale). In the 4x100 relay, the team of Cox, Marable, Amodia and Payne placed a strong third at 51.29. Amodia was fourth overall in the 200 (27.23) and second in the second heat.
The Lancers have 27 athletes already listed on the official Direct Athletics roster site. In roster numbers, it's easily the largest women's track and field team assembled in school history.
PCC third-year head coach Larry Wade and distance coach Armand Crespo know they have put together a formidable group.
Meet team scoring in California Community College track and field only takes place at the conference (South Coast Conference for PCC), Southern California, and CCCAA state championship meets.
PCC will participate at the Cerritos Invitational on Friday-Saturday, Feb. 15-16 at Cerritos College in Norwalk.

The promising youngster makes his second temporary move of the season, having just returned from Netherlands, and will be looking to help the New Zealanders reach the play-offsFulham Under-21s striker Corey Gameiro will join New Zealand side Wellington Phoenix on loan until the end of the A-League season.
The 20-year-old forward is making his second temporary move of the season, having just returned from Dutch side FC Eindhoven, where he made eight appearances.
The youngster has been brought in for some added firepower as the Phoenix attempt to make a late surge for a play-off spot, despite losing 5-0 to Central Coast Mariners in their last fixture.
Australia Under-20s international Gameiro could be in the squad to face Brisbane Roar on Sunday and will be looking to gain as much first-team exposure as possible during the remainder of the campaign.

i've located MORE ideas & images to share from my archives!
In that post, called 'Beautifully Organized',
you saw images of two of my office/studio spaces:
the black and white decor was in house B,
the black and white decor was in house B,
and the neutral decor was in [dream house] C.
the images i found are of house B, and the previously-unseen house A.
[i know that's confusing - i moved a lot! imagine how i felt!]
the great thing about moving a lot is that i discovered many ways
for the fixtures and accessories that i had
to work in ALL of those rooms, in ALL of those houses:
the IKEA shelf unit, the tall work table, the old shutters, the shallow IKEA drawers
were workhorses that i could fit into almost every one of my offices.
by using inexpensive paper from dollar tree and target, or thrift stores,
by using inexpensive paper from dollar tree and target, or thrift stores,
i could create a whole new look in each room... sometimes in the SAME ROOM
[what can i say? i'm a decorator. stuff HAS to change!
that's why i like doing it on the CHEAP!]
let's take a look at a few NEW details from my office/studio spaces:
above is the office/studio in house B
[which was also shown in the black & white decor images in the other post]
[which was also shown in the black & white decor images in the other post]
only instead of being black and white, now it's filled with cozy neutrals.
it's simply a change of the paper that is covering containers & inspiration boards,
a wardrobe change for the mannequin, new paint on the chandelier,
and a few small accessory switches to make the room look completely different!
things that i really liked about that office:
* it felt bright all the time because of the mirrored closet doors (see in reflection)
and because i put MORE mirrors on the opposite wall.
light bounced EVERYWHERE
[and in Seattle, you need all the light you can GET]
* this was the first time i had the tall work table and high barstools in an office,
and they worked SO well for me.
i stand up a lot and move around when i am working, making everything more accessible.
* you can see the dictionary-page-covered file cabinet
[shown below in an image from the other post]
under the work table. i LOVED this piece!
below is the office/studio in house A
it's one you haven't seen yet...
[though other posts have shown the beautiful huge white mantel in this tiny cottage!]
tiny would be the operative word here - this room was only 11X9!
nevertheless, i fit a LOT of storage in here
[used the vertical space!]
and even took the closet doors off so that built-ins could be used in there, too.
and, okay, you may notice that at the time, i was heavily into chartreuse green. and pink.
[i am not preppy.
i swear i didn't know that was 'the uniform' for Lilly Pulitzer fans!]
but even though now i think i would go bonkers in that room,
the happy, bright pink and green papers [yes, dollar tree and target!]
really went a long way in coordinating a bunch of haphazard elements in here.
it's REALLY important to reduce the LOOK of clutter as well as the ACTUAL clutter
when your space is only a hundred square feet
things that i really liked about that office:
* the green damask paper was FLOCKED. uh huh!
target. 2007 - i think it's all gone now, girls!
* the glass jars holding colorful crafting supplies... and yes, candy.
* the hot pink cards hanging from the wire mobile?
tearsheets from O magazine, with encouraging quotes on them.
* the wonderful enamel-top farm table.
* the wonderful enamel-top farm table.
i used that table in dozens of ways for over 18 years!
* did you see the chandelier?! it's green in this room.
it was about twelve colors in the twenty years that i owned it!
i hope these ideas inspire you to see what you can do
with what you already have on hand and can get inexpensively!

When "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues" bowed last December, it seemed like a delightful reunion with Will Ferrell's iconic breakthrough role. As the two-hour laffer unfolded, it seemed a bit strained. The jokes and timing of the film easily made it a hit. Sparking the idea of a third film, which both director Adam McKay and Ferrell shot down. But that hasn't stopped the film from having other ways of connecting with an audience.
The initial home video release of the first film, "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy," had a lot of unused material. So much so, that a second quasi-sequel was included. Sloppily pieced together with narration and a excised subplot about terrorists, "Wake Up, Ron Burgundy" was a novelty that prolonged the enjoyment of the film.
This past Friday, McKay and Ferrell tried something even more auspicious. Using the basis of the released version, most of the jokes were replaced with completely different takes. Having such an improv-heavy cast, this type of theatrical remix could be done multiple times over. So for a one-week engagement, "Anchorman 2" gets rated-R and filled with long takes and almost all new punchlines.
Seeing both films gives a better understanding of what has occurred. Similar to when both versions of "The Exorcist" prequel ("Exorcist: The Beginning" and "Dominion") hit the screen, it's rare to see such a move is executed. The original PG-13 sequel is funny enough but feels a bit lethargic compared to its predecessor. The R version seems to actually take it up a notch. The latest version is longer, but with a more manic recklessness that redeems the pieces lost switching versions.
Though the latter, more adult version is going to appeal mostly to fans, it could very well become the version the greater public opts for once they give it a chance. Both will find their home in many movie collections, but for those looking for an underdog version rabid with energy, give the new version a try.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission reported that 829 manatees--out of an estimated 5000 in Florida-- died during 2013.
A leading cause of death --276 manatee fatalities--was red tide. Red tide, which biologists often call Harmful Algal Blooms, is caused by an overgrowth of a type of algae that produces toxins that can affect the nervous system of manatees and other marine animals. This algal overgrowth is called "red tide" because the algae contain pigments that turn the water red.
Other causes of manatee death included boating accidents, which claimed 72 lives.

The Pittsburgh Penguins are one-for-one on their current road trip through Western Canada. In their second game of the trip, the Penguins head to Edmonton for their second meeting with the Oilers. Pittsburgh used some late-game heroics against the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday to come away with a 5-4 shootout victory. The Oilers have had a rough season thus far, losing four of their last five games. Their latest game saw them fall at the hand of the St. Louis Blues, 5-2, on Tuesday.
When and where: Rexall Place (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada); 10:00 pm/et (Root Sports, TSN)
Records: Penguins (32-12-1, 65 pts.); Oilers (14-27-5, 33 pts.)
Season series: Penguins lead 1-0
Last meeting: The Penguins and Oilers already met early this season on October 15th in Pittsburgh for the first game of their season home-and-home series. The two teams exchanged goals, put the Penguins got the last goal to get the 3-2 victory. Pascal Dupuis, Chris Kunitz, and Evgeni Malkin all scored for Pittsburgh while Ales Hemsky and Jordan Eberle tallied for Edmonton. Marc-Andre Fleury picked up his fifth straight victory to open the season, stopping twenty shots.
Who to keep an eye on:
1. Oilers' top line: Tonight, the Oilers' top line will consist of first round picks, Taylor Hall, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, and Sam Gagner. All that talent on one line will be a difficult task to defend against for the Penguins.
2. Chris Kunitz: The thirty-four year old Olympian is currently on a five-game point streak. In those five games, Kunitz has scored three points in one game twice, and will be looking to repeat that tonight against a struggling Edmonton squad.
Ex-Penguin alert: D Andrew Ference (1999-2003), D Corey Potter (Appeared in one game in 2011), LW Steve MacIntyre (2011-2013), Asst. Coach Kelly Buchberger (2003-2004)
Penguins: G Tomas Vokoun (blood clot), D Paul Martin (broken tibia), RW Beau Bennett (wrist/hand), C Andrew Ebbett (broken ankle), C Jayson Megna (lower body), RW Pascal Dupuis (knee), RW Chris Conner (hand), RW Chuck Kobasew (lower body)
Oilers: LW Steve MacIntyre (knee), LW Ryan Hamilton (knee), RW Tyler Pitlick (knee), G Richard Bachman (groin), D Philip Larsen (illness), RW Ales Hemsky (upper body)
Additional notes:
-With the pairing of Brooks Orpik and Simon Despres not working out too well Tuesday night, it looks like Orpik will be teamed with Robert Bortuzzo tonight.
-Devan Dubnyk is making his first start in goal for the Oilers since the second of this month in San Jose.
-19th-best penalty kill (Oilers) vs. 2nd-best power play (Penguins). Oof.
-In five career games against Edmonton, Sidney Crosby has seven points, but zero goals.

The Research Associate(RA) Internship is an innovative volunteer program for enthusiastic and inspired college and post-baccalaureate students. Created by the Bellevue Hospital Center Emergency Department, the RA Internship allows students an opportunity to experience and observe many different aspects of clinical research. The program is comprised of clinical research shifts based in the Emergency Department. It offers the committed student a unique experience, which is intended to furnish a wealth of knowledge about the numerous options for a career in healthcare. This 9-12 month unpaid research internship will expose participants to a diverse spectrum of clinical and non-clinical based research investigations being pursued at the Emergency Department at NYU/Bellevue. Students will be allocated with a specific grant or research effort under mentorship of the PI/Co-PI or Project Manager to support long term research.
This experience will allow the student to develop basic research skills. The student will be provided with a basic research course, oriented to the Institutional Review Board and other Human Subjects courses, exposed to new and innovative research to fulfill and help meet the respective project's deliverables.
RA Internship participants will work within the Emergency Department setting to support data collection, data entry, organizing paperwork, and helping to create and maintain databases. RA's will also gain exposure to power point design and presentation skills.
The RA Internship is a very demanding program, requiring a great deal of commitment on the part of the student. We accept applications on a rolling basis. We are always looking for applicants. RA Interns can expect to work a total of 20-25 hours/week. Times are flexible and will be discussed with the Research Coordinator.
Application Process
We invite applications from mature, committed, and motivated students who fully accept the demands of the RA Internship and have a willingness to participate enthusiastically in all aspects of the program. We encourage applications not only from students with a strong interest in healthcare (aspiring doctors, nurses, nurse-practitioners, physician assistants, clinical psychologists/psychiatrists, and clinical social workers), but also from students who are uncertain about pursuing a career in healthcare. You do not have to be currently enrolled in school to be eligible, however one year of college must be completed in order to be eligible.
Applications are currently being accepted.
Please email all questions to: firstname.lastname@example.com
To apply, please complete the online application form.

The man who famously cost England at a World Cup brings the 'Hand of God' out of retirement - and is caught on camera again.
03:21, UK, Monday 11 August 2014
Diego Maradona has been filmed slapping a journalist who allegedly winked at his ex-partner.
The 53-year-old angrily confronted the reporter as his children watched from his car.
He called the man an "idiot" before slapping him in the face.
The cameras then show the former Argentinian footballer getting back in his car before driving off.
It has been reported the journalist winked at the mother of Maradona's son - his ex-partner Veronica Ojeda.
The family had been celebrating Children's Day at an event in Buenos Aires.
Maradona has courted controversy throughout his career.
He used his other hand to score a goal that helped knock England out of the 1986 World Cup.
Eight years later he was sent home from the World Cup in USA after failing a drugs test.
In 1998 he was given a suspended sentence for shooting journalists with an air rifle.
Maradona has also made headlines for cocaine and alcohol abuse.

Can i have some imputs on these Question "PLEASE" ?
I purchased 5 liters of diesel & it was sorta ok , so i went & got 2.5 liters of this koala "crap" stuff from a cheapo shop , i think my piss would have moved more , so i bought some decent oven cleaner & that moved another layer of crap ! the car is 32 yrs old & i think it never ever got cleaned underneath , no wonder it has such good floor pans , rust couldnt penatrate the grime ! i used to use a degreaser called "kenco" dont know if thats the correct spelling but it use to remove everything including a layer of paint ! is this stuff still around? having a bitch of a time finding a store that sells it ? Is there something i can get thats easy to find that actually works ?
Regards: Gav
Kenco Shift-it is still avail
Kenco Shift-it is still available, I actually bought 5 liters for $10 at supercheap auto just a few weeks ago.
It is good stuff, and when left to soak, will remove anything, kill the grass under the car, and stain like hell if not removed properly. Ive tried heaps of degreasers, and its still the best.
I haven't tried the proprietr
I haven't tried the proprietry stuff - I just mix detergent and kero, brush it on, leave it a bit and hose it off. Seems to work OK. Anything stubborn, I'd use a brush (nylon, not metal), on the second try before I hosed it.
Those $2 cans from supercheap are pretty good, but from memry are a distillate base.... get yourself one of those $70 pressure cleaners, I bought one, got a 2 year warranty and MATE they are AWESOME...
Silence is Non Committal
I use the $2 Aussie Export brand ones from Supercheap. Not the greatest, but they do the job fairly well. They also double as the worlds best lawn killer. I remember a mate of mine wrote a whole paragraph of insults, on the front lawn of someone who had wronged him, some time back. Took a few days to do its thing but it burned deep into the ground and stayed there for at least a month!
"Bundy and Sterlings, who would've thought that would be a good combination?"
Yeah, Kenco will take off even the most stubbon birds knickers. I find the stuff handy to use from the spray on the compressor.
Supercheap sell it
Best degreaser
I bought a bottle of Lightning TUFF Cleaner/Degreaser at the Farmworld Show at Lardner Park, Warragul a few weekends back and couldn't believe how well it worked on my greasy old suspension bits and pieces and various other dirty rusty old metal parts I cleaned with it. I checked the Lightning website for more info and it comes in either a 4 litre concentrate which can be watered down to a spray & wipe dilution ratio or you can use it as a straight concentrate but I wouldn't as it would be nuclear strength. The 4 litres makes about 80 litres at the spray & wipe ratio they sell in the 500ml spray pack. It is made using citrus oils & eucalyptus and won't kill your garden as it is biodegradeable aswell so no more dead dolphins!! Guys just remember that every can of that petrochemical solvent type degreaser that goes down the drain eventually ends up in the sea - and the fish we eat. I'll be using this Lightning TUFF from now on as it is much safer all round and in my opinion worked better anyway. I have since found out that it was BJ Bearings who was selling it but Repco, Bursons, Supercheap all seem to have it or can get it in for you. Another product I bought that Lightning make is the Eucalyptus Laundry Powder. They call it Euca and I bought 10kgs for $60 but as it is suitable for front loader washing machines I will get 500+ washes as it is a concentrate with no fillers in it, which end up in your clothes & it is especially good on greasy overalls but soft enough for wool. Hope this is of interest as I am very happy with both of these products.
so no more dead dolphins!!
Is this spam ?
no more dead dolphins...
It certainly is a good 'add' for the product..

Dont be fooled Tim
Sad thing but true "If it dont kill dolphins, it wont kill grease".
I've wasted oodles of coins on junk degreaser :-(
Nah, not fooled Dusty..
I use oven cleaner. Best stuff around, and it's cheap.

There's an idea
Caustic sh!t iirc but been a few years since i cleaned an oven, lol.
Will go try it next job, Ta :-)
TUFF Degreaser is the Best I've Ever Used - Tried them all
I agree that the LIGHTNING TUFF DEGREASER is the sh1t!!! I've tried them all and just wish I'd discovered it long ago. I use it for everything around home - washed the weatherboards down & picket fence before repainting it, cleaned 50 year old blackened filthy curdy looking paving in inner city backyard < awesome results just wish I had photo of before I did it as I was blown away how clean it was. Just remember that for degreasing you mix it one part TUFF to 5 parts Water and if it's for general cleaning you mix it 1 TUFF : 20 parts Water. It lasts ages as it is super concentrate. You can use it on clothes for grease stains aswell. It is great around kitchen as it hasn't got petroleum products in it. The eucalyptus is all grown in Victoria near Bendigo from what I found out. I use the EUCA Laundry powder at home but only buy it in 2kg size as it last ages in my front loader as I only use 20gms per wash. I like that it is made in Melbourne so less wasted fuel from overseas made toxic petroleum based products that don't seem to work as well as this stuff. Biodegradeable ingredients but not what you are washing off - e.g. grease & oil isn't. I bought these products from Total Tools at a trade night but I think many stores sell them. Check the website if you can't find it. I highly recommend these ones. I'm trying there Eucalyptus Dishwashing Powder next as I am far from impressed with Finish as I'm getting marks on our new cutlery set from David Jones. Will be interested to see results.
Dead Dolphins found washed up on Rosebud beach.
Possible cause of DEATH,
oven cleaner with traces of engine oil !!!!
It wasn't me..
Mine goes straight onto the lawn...it doesn't even burn it!

Dolphin Friendly......Best Degreaser
Why would anyone try to degrease a Dolphin anyway ?
cause I don't like dirty
cause I don't like dirty dolphin steaks?

(Ivanhoe Newswire) – According to a recent study, people who received injections of the multiple sclerosis (MS) drug interferon beta-1a directly after noticing signs of possible MS were less likely to progress into definite MS compared to those who switched to interferon beta-1a from placebo.
Although it is not currently available in the United States, the trial was conducted with the human serum albumin-free formulation of interferon beta-1a, which is available in all European Union countries, Australia, Switzerland, Canada, and a number of countries in Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, and Asia.
"While we've known it's beneficial to start MS drugs as soon as possible, this is the first trial to show a benefit of early injections of interferon beta-1a treatment at three years," Mark Freedman, M.S., with the University of Ottawa in Ontario, Canada, and a Fellow of the American Academy of Neurology, was quoted as saying.
The clinical trial took three years and involved 517 people who had one clinical episode suggestive of a demyelinating event, such as tingling, muscle weakness, or problems with balance, coupled with having at least two silent brain lesions detected by a MRI scan.
Patients started their treatments 58 days after their first symptoms began. One-third of the patients received 44 mcg of interferon beta-1a three times a week for two years; one-third received 44 mcg of the drug once a week (an unapproved dose); and the other one-third received placebo for two years. After the two years were over, 133 people who were still receiving placebo were switched to three-times a week dose and the others continued their originally allocated dosages.
After the third year of the study, researchers found that patients who received the drug 3 times a week were less likely to be diagnosed with clinically definite MS (defined as having a second clinical attack or a sustained increase in the Expanded Disability Status Scale disability score of greater than 1.5) compared to those who received the placebo treatment. The probability of being diagnosed by the third year was 41 percent for the delayed treatment group, 28 percent for the once-a-week treatment group, and 27 percent for those who had the drug three times a week.
Also, the study found that those who received the treatment for the full three years were less likely to meet the McDonald criteria for a MS diagnosis. A total of 87 percent of people who had switched from the placebo after two years met the McDonald criteria for MS after three years, compared with 79 percent of patients who had received the weekly treatment and 67 percent of those who had treatments three times a week.
"While doses three times a week and once a week equally delayed a clinically definite MS diagnosis without MRI measures, there were significantly more benefits in taking the drug three times a week compared with once a week when it came to brain lesion changes and other McDonald criteria for diagnosing MS," Dr. Freeman was quoted as saying.

John O'Conner: Funding is a serious
issue across almost every state right now.
Could you talk about how the potential
for funding cuts might impact your ability to do your jobs?
durden: It is affecting our ability [to
do our jobs], but we also see it as an opportunity. One of the things that we challenged our providers with was to identify
ways that we could decrease some of the
regulatory burden. First they thought I
was joking. And then, when they stopped
laughing, they did identify some ways
that we could decrease some of the regulatory burden.
For example, currently we do yearly
surveys of assisted living communities.
One of the ideas that we've discussed
with our Texas legislature is perhaps
going to either a 15-month or 18-month
survey based on the community's compliance history. That would be a relief for
the providers, but it would also be a relief
for the regulatory agency.
Another opportunity is looking at
some of the complaints. Last year we investigated over 16,000 complaints in our
communities. If we could look at how we
triage and how we determine what needs
to be investigated, that would relieve
some of the regulatory burden, not only
for our agency, but also for the provider.
Haston: It is affecting us, but that is
creating an opportunity for the agency to
look at efficiencies. And listening to the
provider community tell us which rules
are not hitting home—where it may have
made sense in the past, [but now] it just
I will tell you that the Department of
Elder Affairs is aggressively looking at
what we can reduce, and if you're following the news here in Florida, the governor has told us that's what he wants us
to do. So we don't have a choice. That's
what we're doing. We're trying to make
sure that these communities are less burdened with unnecessary regulation and
able to care for the residents that they
have in their community.
Ryan: Our governor has issued Execu-tive Order 70 to have all rules reviewedso we will be having an open, publicstakeholders meeting, and anyone canpropose rule revisions, anything that'sobsolete or is a barrier to being able tooperate well.

Omeewan's Jedi Skins-Shaders
Hey gang,
Here's an update on my skinpack- Now with Shaders!
A big thanks to Marz for his helpful suggestions!
Sorry for the triple post- tried to get all the screens in!
what about your skins in your ava and signy has that got shaders
Yes, but I can't release that publicly because it's a reskin of Darth Bandon.
do you have xfire ????? a jedi bandon :O i dont have msn so you cant send me the model :(
omeewan i think you can...just give credit to the creator of the model...
No nightfox, he cant
It's a ported model.
So no...
Okay this is it! The final draft!! All models now have working shaders, there are no glitches, and all the sounds work. I also updated the sith Anakin to look a lot better! I will be posting the download link soon and I will also put it up on PCGM. The only future update will be adding kit fisto team skins- there were some files missing on it and he only appeared as a head so I took it off. Anakin's team skins as well.
Here is a modelview shot of anakin's sith face:
I'll post the new DL link for the skin pack in a few!
Here it is!!! :)
Get it here! Test it out!
Gimme a hollar: email@example.com
Those look as if they came from another game. Sweet god.
Hopefully once PCGM is not full again, I can upload. In the meantime, feel free to download from the link. :) I also sent an e-mail to jk2files with the download link, but I don't know if they will accept it.
Any add-ons would be helpful: ie: npcs, single player, sabers, ect.
yes looks more like real human ..
UT2004's models are shine like this skin too.
I love them all !!! ..
I already add npc & bot so I can send you too or upload too
please send me your avatar skin by mail please ?
FINALLY!!! I got the spirit (blue glowie) shader working!
**Thanks to redsaurus** you can find his ghost morgan and jawa at pcgamemods!
I didn't use the robed version because it caused several issues, and since the robe would also be see through- you could see his body through the robe.
Here is the download link:
OMFG!!!!!! O_O O_O O_O O_O Omee... omg dude. You're like the best thing that came to this community :o
I wish I could model - :) Then there would be no limit to what I could do.
Just realized a bug with the Qui-Gon Spirit Skin- In some maps it causes errors in the way other shaders show up. For example- in Mygeeto everything comes out red! This is still a WIP, but for right now just be advised that it causes some maps to looks funny.
Ghost skin looks nice !
some fun shot of SP
some fun shot of SP
Looks awesome. Glad you got that qhost quigon done.
Sadly my download of this huge skin pack paused. It remained at 0% but that's just me. Im going to try again today...
I love those screens!!
Nicely done Buffy! :D I really like the way those screenshots look! Where can I download your SP and NPC files?
BTW- I'll be sending the updated file of my skin to you. I expect to see some more award winning screens- New "Omeewan" Wallper :D
(All they would need to do is delete half of the crappy colorful clan Jawas or Re-colored Reborns with initials painted on their butts.)
Lol. No worries! I got it downloaded. :)
(LOL at the reborns and jawas thing)
LOL, it's funny to us because it's so true huh?
Here's my rant for the day:
Everytime I go there to see what's new it's like: "Here is my new skin. It's Darth [random name here]." And it's always a Jawa painted black or grey (maybe desaturated, or maybe painted solid with MS paint) with a vibrant green or red glowing eyes. Then of course there is also the multitude of reborn models with the intitials of the clans painted on the ass flaps, also done with MS paint, normally in a bright green color or preferably some bright yellow or orange. Lately- and here is one that is really starting to bother me: there have been a lot of Quinlan Vos re-skins! And I'm not talking about re-skins of the Quinlan Character himself. I'm talking about everything from Quinlan in chainmail to Quinlan in clown make up. He's becoming the new reborn. Then, I go to upload my skins or a pack and guess what...it's FULL!!!! Grrrrrr....
Okay, phew...I feel like Peter Griffin doing the "You know what really grinds my gears..." segment. I just needed to vent...
Anyhow, back on topic for me lol
Is it working okay for you? I've only had bugs with the ghost qui-gon on 2 custom maps. (coruscant heights 2.0 and mygeeto- which I think might be due to custom shaders)
Let me know if you guys spot any other bugs- I want it to be PERFECT!
good job on the jedi skins...it shows that u have put a LOT of work into them...keep up the good work dude
for me I fund some new map's sky box is gone and
yoda's head is black by Quigon shost ..
I hope fix final version .. thank you ! :cowdance
i noticed sumthing ur pack ...the team color skins are less detailed then the default one so i thought id give it a try on improving it :P
yours: (mace windu)
tell me what u think? i have done it for all of ur skins ...just tell me if u want them :P lol
Thanks for the compliment earlier! :) And in regards to the Team skins: I didn't make them, Zappa did. He worked on them all for me along with the icons in order to help me out and speed things up. I have no problem with you trying to improve on them if you want. I really like the contrast that you added- also did you add a filter to it or just overlay? Either way it turned out pretty good. I like it! Try to post some screens of the model so I can see it.
Ruku had suggested in a post somewhere for the Team skins to be the same pattern as Hapslash's Obi-Wan, which I thought was a pretty good idea as well. Anyhow, as long as Zappa doesn't mind (I don't mind) feel free to modify/create your own textures with the team skins, and I will try to update them as soon as I can.
And Buffy, I will try to fix the Qui-Gon ghost, but it's really hard. :( It basically only causes problems with custom maps and models. I will try to find a different shader for it. Let me know if you guys find anything.
Ya.. and...erg... :s Speaking of Jedi, do you think you can make some SWG Jedi with Padawan/Knight/Master robes? With the flat sort of texture in the back you know what I mean? You don't have to if ya don't want to... just another idea... ;)
Also, in regards to the SWG skins- what do you mean by flat texture in the back?
You're probably hot in real life.
but ya ill get back to u on the screenies u wanted
LOL @ Tech chick's post.
dang dude u already got a groupie haha
btw im having sum trouble uploading the zip file in yahoo ...ill see if i just put em in here through imageshack.us or filefront

Rated 1 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 1 out of 5 by ilikemick different dye lots I bought 2 of these pillows to put on a sofa and didn't discover until I ordered a 3rd that each one is a different shade of neutral. So disappointed. Already cut tags off 2 of them, not sure if I should pay the shipping cost to return the third. Waste of decorating money! Would like to add that I bought 2 yellow ones at the same time and did not have the subtle color match problem. Qualilty is ok, just so bummed about the dye lots. August 6, 2014

Today, a leading IT company underscored its commitment to make widespread mobile learning a reality as the President and CEO of the company participates in an executive digital learning summit hosted by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the U.S. Department of Education today in Washington, D.C. Showcasing its support for mobile learning and digital education, the company announced successful programs in several U.S. schools that are leveraging the company's high-speed network, affordable rate plans, and mobile broadband devices for a range of purposes, including tutoring, textbook replacement and mobile Internet access at school and at home.
Noting that annual textbook costs for U.S. K-12 public schools has reached nearly $8 billion1, the FCC and the Department of Education have encouraged the country to transition to interactive digital learning within the next five years. Today, many top IT companies will participate in the next step of that vision by discussing – alongside FCC and Department of Education leadership – how technology can be leveraged and new offers created to support a widespread digital education ecosystem.

Russell Crowe will appear in the film, "Noah," and it is getting heat for its "irreligious" views by those in Egypt. There is debate that the movie should not play in that nation due to Islamic opposition with Crowe's portrayal as Noah.
ABC Australia reported March 7 that one of the country's main Sunni Muslim authorities, Al-Azhar institute, claims the production violates Islam by portraying Noah as a prophet. "Noah" with Russell Crowe is set to premiere in Egypt on March 26. Paramount Pictures announced on its website that "Noah" would also be released in other Middle Eastern countries on March 27.
The reported noted that Al-Azhar has the power to play an advisory role on censoring movies and books in Egypt, but does not make the final decision in banning anything. The country's censorship board must approve any movie before it plays.
Crowe playing a prophet in the film "contradicts the stature of prophets and messengers... and antagonises the faithful", the institution said in a statement.
It is not just Egypt where there is uneasiness over Crowe's role. In the U.S. some Christians feel the actor's role as Noah is "unconventional."
Other movies censored in Egypt include "The Da Vinci Code" when protests from members of the Orthodox Coptic Church emerged. It did screen "The Passion of Christ," directed by Mel Gibson. Muslims do believe Jesus was a prophet, but not that he was crucified.
Anytime there is a movie made with religious content, there is going to be some backlash. Despite the negative hype in Egypt surrounding "Noah," Russell Crowe and the producers will enjoy another great film success.

Sutton Schools Borough U11s, made certain of at least runners up in the league with a 1-0 win at Newbury on Saturday.
Sutton maintained their recent good form, passing the ball against a physical side. Their patience paid off when Tate Greenaway scored the only goal with a fine left-foot finish.
With player of the match Joseph Sampah and Alfie Doughty winning ball in the midfield, Sutton dominated the first half and could easily have scored more with George Miller and Greenaway continually causing problems.
It was Sutton's third clean sheet in a row.
This Saturday, they visit Watford for the national seven-a-side finals. Hull, Vale and Liverpool are in their group.
Sutton: Barnard, Miller (Cheam Common), Seagroatt (Holy Trinity), Mottley, Vanstone (Abbey), Doughty – Capt. (Nonsuch), Nebbitt (All Saints'), Hardy, Anto (St. Cecilia's), Sampah (Westbourne), Stephens (Cheam Park Farm), Shaw (Bandon Hill), Greenaway (Cheam Fields)

In a team sport, NFL Commissioner Roger Goddell said he didn't like Richard Sherman's act of individuality following Sunday's NFC Championship Game. According to NBC Sports on Jan. 23, Goddell reacting to Sherman's post-game rant on Thursday's "CBS This Morning".
Goddell emphasized that he liked the Seattle Seahawks cornerback but wanted to see him represent himself better. When asked about Richard Sherman's post-game interview with FOX's Erin Andrews, Goddell said:
"It's an emotional game, and you see a young man who comes off the field and he's pumped up, and there's so much excitement in the stadium, but no, I'm not cheering for that because he's a great young man, he's extremely well spoken, does great things off the field, obviously a great player on the field."
Sherman has become the center of attention leading up to Super Bowl XLVIII. Even with him trying to deflect the attention off himself and onto his team, the media and those around the game continue to focus on Sherman. It has become more than the game as Sherman has raised questions about social perception and racial attitude when it comes to the connotation association with what a "thug" is.
Roger Goddell knows Sherman is not a "thug" and just wants him to be seen in a positive like. He went on to say:
"I want him to present himself and his family in a positive way. He took away a little from the team. That was what he said yesterday [Wednesday]. I thought that was a very interesting comment and I think it's fair."
The Richard Sherman hoopla doesn't seem to be ending any time soon no matter how quiet the star cornerback remains. According to a report on CNN, Sherman's 15-second rant can earn him up to $5 million in endorsements. If Seattle wins the Super Bowl, that number will only climb.

It is another race holiday for liberals and through their public relations apparatus (major media) we are treated to the events of Ferguson Missouri where night after night we get to see looters and rioters make a mess of things albeit all for a good cause and that cause is the outrage of white cops shooting a black teen.
What we supposedly don't see is the peaceful demonstrators who are upset that a young 200 pound plus teen can't rob a convenience store and then beat up cops without losing his life in the process. What's this world coming to anyway?
I especially loved it when last Friday the video of the teen robbing the convenience store was released and it showed the big lovable lug bullying the store owner, this was said to "disparage the character" of our new race hero, "character assassination" they even called it. How dare the authorities to give full disclosure, how dare they upset the moral high ground of the libs and the media in what looked like their present day Memphis moment. Now things are a bit ambiguous and not so much a racist "narrative".
The video release was said over and over again to spur on the events of Friday night where the streets of Ferguson resembled black Friday without the stores being officially open with no money being exchanged. Baloney. If I thought the cops were not enforcing the law with all their absurd military apparatus I might help myself to laptop or three. In spite of the "narrative" I think the looters are operating on a more rational level than the peaceful protestors.
MSNBC was a delight to watch Monday evening where Racheal Maddow (will someone please get her new wardrobe) thought it necessary to show us the peaceful side of the protesting and then display a video of people cleaning the streets in the morning since in liberal land everyone thinks black people are animals, everyone except for them. See, some actually are cleaning the streets because we know you all think this isn't possible, but we don't and we get to video it and Racheal-one-outfit will brag about it.
So let's have another "dialogue" on race. No, let me do it all by myself:
What do you think of racism?
Ah, not too fond of it, kind'a doesn't make sense.
I agree.
…..well?....anything else we can talk about?
Nah….feel like having an ice cream?

The McDonald's Open Doors Kitchen Tours are coming up again! If you've always wanted to know what goes on behind the scenes, from the time you place your order to few seconds later that you receive your fish fillet, now's the chance to sign up for the tours and find out first hand. Us lucky bloggers were invited to get a sneak preview before everyone else, but the real clincher? Being able to bring our cameras into McDonald's kitchens! I was pretty surprised that McDonalds allowed us to do so, but if they weren't going to object, I wasn't going to object.
First stop, my most favourite stop of all, the FRENCH FRY station! When cooked well, don't you think they are just lovely? These here are a bit messy. According to my friend who used to work at McDonalds, all fries should be placed upright, and the yellow strips on the back of the cardboard should not be visible or it means you aren't getting enough fries! Hmmm, these here don't really pass.
I really wish I knew how to cook fries like McDonalds. It's too bad they don't have their blue colour mayonnaise packets anymore. I love dipping the fries in mayo and pepper!
The fries frying station…
The frozen fries are kept in the fridge above, and dispensed by dropping out of the fridge automatically into the metal frying contraption
Cute! Bun troubleshooting tool!
I really had a hard time trying to get a few good pictures of the guy making the burgers. Mr Fastest Fingers First was literally zooming all over the place. Before I could even snap, the burger was done. My DSLR camera can't make it when compared to Mr FFF!
Only managed to take a picture of the McChicken after it was done. I hope he managed to get the buns toasted just right. Yeah, managed to get the Cheeseburger one. Mmmmm cheeeese.
Speaking of cheese, here's a close up shot. I just had to, of course. I wonder what sort of cheese they use. Can't seem to find it in the supermarkets.
Once again, Mr FFF getting nuggets out of the warming cabinet. He's already taken 2 before I've managed to get a picture.
Closer look at the warming cabinet. There's a time limit to how long the food items can be stored here before it has to be chucked out. Something along the lines of 10 – 20 minutes. If you want your food piping hot, you're always welcome to request a fresh or customised order.
Don't ask me why the hands on the clocks don't match the words…
Before the patties even get to the warming cabinets, they have to first be grilled. And this clam-shell contraption here does the job. First, put the frozen patties in.
Contraption will clamp down on the patties to grill them. With this contraption, each patty will be cooked for the same amount of time and to the right thickness!
When the timer beeps, remove the grilled patties!
Voila, they are ready! I spy a few few red spots on the patty. I guess if you want yours really well done, ask for it.
Our friendly McDonald's ambassador then brought us into the store room. They should call a box room since it was full of boxes. Didn't know that Big Mac Sauce is dispensed from a can.
Next up was the walk-in freezer. It was very fun to be able to step into the freezer, with the freezer fans blasting cold air right into your face. I thought I would be able to see raw meat here, but it was also pretty much more boxes. Despite that, I'm sure little kids would find it exciting to be able to venture into a freezer for the 1st time in their lives.
I actually have done this numerous times as I used to temp at the airport inflight catering centre. One of my tasks was to procure frozen food from the freezers when needed. I was only 15 at that time and I found it a treat to be able to venture into the silent freezer away from the clanking of plates and dishes outside. It kind of stopped being fun when one occasion, the floor was so slippery that I couldn't find traction while trying to pull open the huge metal door…..
Next, we got to see the staff lounge. They even had a TV in the staff lounge. Hey my company should learn from McDonalds. Free McDonald meals are provided for all staff, although I wonder if one could tolerate eating from the same restaurant every single day.
The who's who in McDonald's King Albert Park branch
In case the staff have problems remembering how the burgers should be prepared
Barbecue sauce or curry sauce for you, Madam?
View of the ground floor
Bloggers listening intently to the welcome briefing. Do not touch anything for hygiene and safety purposes!
And Ronald McDonald, Hamburglar and the 2 hairy ones bid us goodbye
OK I had to end off with more fries. Picture of the latest cheese fries promo…it's really delicious…and sinful. Tastes like cheezels!
More information on McDonalds and the Kitchen Tours
This year's Open Doors in Singapore will see 300 sessions of kitchen tours, conducted between 18 September 2011 to 19 February 2012, at 25 McDonald's restaurants island-wide. The kitchen tours will take place every 3rd Sunday of the month. Participants will learn about McDonald's food from "farm to fork" system. Register online at www.mcdonalds.com.sg/opendoors.
Did you know that McDonald's uses 100% beef with no additives and fillers, whole-muscle chicken thigh, Grade AA eggs sanitised and oiled for freshness, 100% vegetable oil with no cholesterol and no trans-fat? NO TRANS FATS! FINALLY!
Photography or filming is not permitted.
Forget chocolate cake and ice-cream. McDonald's French fries is the real comfort food for me. Apparently, they are now trans fats free. If your fries are not piping hot like how you want them to be, McDonalds will get you a new serving, no questions asked.
Watch this space, going to do a full write-up of the McDonald's Open Doors Kitchen tour I attended on Saturday.
You know what, many people would frown upon this post, but the truth is the truth and I am not embarrassed to say it. I love McGriddles from McDonalds!!!
They've had a long time in coming up with a new breakfast item, and they finally did so with McGriddles sometime earlier this year or last year perhaps. You know even from the ad on TV, I already knew that it would be something I would really like. But because people around me don't really want to go to McDonalds, I never got the chance to try it.
Well I finally did last week, and it is TASTY. I got the McGriddles with Sausage and Egg. It is similar to the Sausage and Egg McMuffin, but I believe the sausage patty is somewhat bigger. But what makes it really different is the 2 halves of the bun that they have soaked in Maple Syrup. The entire combination when chomped together goes really well!
I have no idea as to the fat content of this thing, but I am definitely going to have it again sometime soon, and perhaps go for a jog after that. McGriddles is available in Singapore, but I don't know if they already have it in other countries. I've tried the breakfast biscuit in USA, which is again something like the Sausage and Egg McMuffin but with biscuits as the buns instead of bun bun. It was decadent but so delicious. I wish we had that in Singapore too.
My McGriddles…
And I love hash browns too.

She doesn't ask for much - a nice window to look out, a cat tree or perch and a nice soft bed to lay on when the mood strikes. Occasionally a wizard brings his magic laser wand and she tries to chase the beams. That game is fun, but the wizard always seems to win.
Sugarplum would LOVE to be an only cat, but would do fine with older calm dogs and cats.
Her adoption fee is $9 right now, and the love she will provide will be worth the cost tenfold.
Consider adopting this cat sweet as a Sugarplum, or becoming her fairy godparent and SHARING her profile and story around the web. Let's show this girl what the power of social media can do!
The following is some additional information about Sugarplum from the Furkids' website:
Hello, my name is Sugarplum and I came to Furkids as part of the Christmas season rescue from Jasper animal control this year, just in time for the holidays. There were several of us felines saved, which was the best gift we could ever receive. We were given a festive naming theme in honor of our liberation.
I am an adorable black and white tuxedo girl with a white 'milk mustache' and super long white whiskers. I am as sweet as sugar and I enjoy the company of people very much. I cannot wait to find my own forever home. My foster mom say that I am 'as sweet as they come'.
I would do fine with other cats, but would be just as content as an only cat if you are looking for one. I enjoy sleeping in my kitty cubbie. I come out to visit, potty, and scratch my post a little and then back to my cozy cubbie. I am thrilled to be petted and will roll over on my back when you hit the sweet spot.
