I will admit something here… I had been hearing about the AMP diapers for YEARS and I had never tried one. Not because I didn't want to… it just never happened. Until now!
I was recently able to try the One Size Duo Pocket. I LOVE the one-size function of it, I LOVE the colors (there are 25!), and have you seen the prints??? I definitely need a Very Cherry or Serendipity for my girl!
The design is great- I love the gentle elastic at the sides, and the elastic at the waist in front. The rise stays snapped down and doesn't get loose in the middle to create a bunch in the front when set to the middle or smallest setting. The pocket is in the front, which isn't something I usually look for, but have found works GREAT at keeping hands mess-free. 😉 These are made to fit from 7-38 pounds, and I can see that being a realistic range!
The insert is one I want more of. It is made of 70% bamboo and 30% cotton– very soft,
and very absorbent. I don't even stuff the pocket- I just lay the insert on top, so it's a versatile diaper, and I get the natural fibers against the skin. But the fleece inside is soft, and a great option for babies who do better with the stay-dry layer.
Honestly, I'm so sad I didn't discover these diapers sooner! I would have had a lot more of them in my stash. The price of them is good, too- especially for a one-size diaper with a quality natural fiber insert! You have to try one. Seriously.
You can learn more about AMP diapers by visiting their website or liking them on Facebook.

New Idea on Ranking in IR
I want to discuss my idea on ranking in IR system which I think can be good extension to Xapian. If I am not too late to discuss it then please consider it. I first give you brief background of me, I am a Masters student working on my thesis in the Information Retrieval. I today only got a mail from one of the professor from Europe whom i am going to join for Ph.D about GSoC and more precisely Xapian.
Generally the ranking is unsupervised, where the rank list is produced based on the score provided by the ranking function. Ranking functions are unsupervised like BM25, TF-IDF and so on. So we give the rank list in the dercreasing order of the score.
Well learning to rank involves supervised learning. If we can extract features for a query and intial retrieval of documents pairs then we can say which document should come above which. Basically search engine requires relevant documents in top order, because user gnerally never bothers to click on the next page of the retrieval rether he chooses to modify the query.
In Laarning to Rank (Letor) we prepare the features which can represent a query document pair. So now after the initial retrieval we take say first 20 or 30 documents and represent them in form of feature vactors, now based on the training data our supervised leaning will give a score to each document for a particular query. For example if this learning is from regression then we have to learn 'W' vector which will give a score to the document vector by dot product.
Here the features can be term frequency, TF-IDF score, BM25 Score etc, as good as many. For Learning there are many machine learning techniques available.

Reflux Ethanol Alcohol Distillation Unit
Perfect your distillation techniques with a personal, laboratory size, ethanol alcohol fuel distiller.
You can purchase a fuel distillation unit complete with all necessary equipment to distill high quality ethanol alcohol at home.
Produce fuel for your car, truck, boat, lawn mower, farm equipment, almost anything that runs on gasoline can be powered by ethanol with our alcohol still.
Start distilling your own fuel in a just days. Your excess ethanol can be sold for many times higher than fuel for use by pharmacies and other businesses.
Distillers that produce one gallon or less at a time are usually legal for personal use in most states. Check your local laws before operating a distiller.
Laws Governing Producing Spirits
Spirits may be produced for non-beverage purposes for fuel use only without payment of tax, but you also must file an application, receive TTB's approval, and follow requirements, such as construction, use, records and reports.
Ethanol is an alcohol that is used in gasoline resulting in a cleaner-burning fuel with higher octane. Ethanol is currently blended into more than 50 percent of the nations fuel supply.
Ethanol has been blended in gasoline for decades and billions of miles have been driven on ethanol-blended fuels.
Corn is the primary feedstock for ethanol production. About 30 percent of the nation's corn supply went into ethanol in 2010, some 4.0 billion bushels. Ethanol can also be made from other grains such as sorghum as well as from biomass sources such as corn cobs, cornstalks, wheat straw, rice straw, switchgrass, vegetable and forestry waste and other organic matter.
Ethanol (grain alcohol) is used extensively in the pharmaceutical industry as well as the alcoholic beverage industry. Limited ethanol production without a permit is legal in most localities.
Ethanol has dramatically reduced the size of the checks America writes to foreign oil suppliers. As a renewable fuel we make right here, ethanol is keeping energy dollars at home to strengthen our economy and reduce the impact that oil shocks have on America's wallet.
More Ethanol Facts ...
Making fuel to operate your car, truck, boat, or lawnmower has never been easier. Even if your car is not Flex Fuel or E-85 ready, we have a solution.
Distilling your own fuel is legal, with a no-fee permit issued by the Federal Government. Not only that, but you will qualify for a 38 to 60 cent per gallon Tax Refund for every gallon you distill.
We can show you how to produce gallons of fuel from a bushel of corn or a few pounds of sugar, and how to cut your fuel costs to as little as $1.20 a gallon or even less!
Imagine never filling up at a gas station again. Imagine how you'll feel when you are energy independent.
This is a simple, straight forward, process which has been tested and improved upon for centuries. Throughout the ages mankind has been making beer, wine, and whisky. This is the same, basic process. Just assemble your ingredients, set up your equipment, and become energy independent almost over night!
Another bright note is that you will be certain that not another dollar of your money is headed to the Mid-East to support countries who support or shelter terrorists.
Dear Distillation,
Hi Josh,
Kind Regards,
Alcohol Fuel
The law states that alcohol produced at an Alcohol Fuel Plant (AFP) is restricted to be exclusively for fuel use. The law, however, does not contain a definition of fuel use. TTB interprets the term to mean only the use of alcohol in motor fuel products that decrease the U.S. reliance on petroleum.
Many More Uses
Ethanol has many uses other than just fuel. As a producer of ethanol you may also be eligible to sell to pharmaceutical companies, distillers and wineries. Fortified wine is wine with higher than usual ethanol content. Pure ethanol is sold for uses other than fuel at up to $70.00 per gallon or more!

Save Even More After Tax Refund on Fuel By Distilling it Yourself
Under Federal rules administered by TTB, it depends on how you use the still. You may not produce alcohol with these stills unless you qualify as a distilled spirits plant. However, owning a small still and using it for other purposes is allowed. You should also check with your State and local authorities - their rules may differ.
A still is defined as apparatus capable of being used to separate ethyl alcohol from a mixture that contains alcohol. Small stills (with a cubic distilling capacity of a gallon or less) that are used for laboratory purposes or for distilling water or other non-alcoholic materials are exempt from our rules. If you buy a small still and use it to distill water or extract essential oils by steam or water extraction methods, you are not subject to TTB requirements. If you produce essential oils by a solvent method and you get alcohol as a by-product of your process, we consider that distilling. Even though you are using and recovering purchased alcohol, you are separating the alcohol from a mixture -distilling.
Actually, ethanol production 'uses up' 0% US corn production. After the ethanol is extracted the corn is returned to the market and used as animal feed, etc. No Bio-mass is lost from ethanol production.
2) Farm Subsidies For Corn Increase The Price Of Corn.
Who would profit from spreading these lies? It is time for all of us to become as fuel independent as possible!
FlexTek is a bi-fuel converter that utilizes its own standalone CPU to enable the vehicle's fuel system to burn ethanol (E85), gasoline, or any blend of the two fuels, the vehicle's original computer is not bypassed. The vehicle continues to be controlled by the original sensors and ECU, but in such a way as to allow efficient burning of alcohol blends.
FlexTek installation does not alter the originality of a vehicle. FlexTek plugs into the vehicle's existing wiring harness without cutting or splicing. FlexTek is easily removed leaving your car completely unaltered. We highly recommend that you treat your engine with the included E85 Engine Preparation Kit (Engine Treatment and Fuel Treatment) before running on alcohol. This helps clean the fuel system and protects the engine from corrosion.

A taxing situation
In an editorial posted on your website dated Aug. 30 ("Find a different home for school vouchers") said the following: "The prospect of paying parents to educate their children at home is a colossal waste of taxpayer money and doesn't represent the true intention of the voucher bill."
I totally agree that paying parents to educate their children at home does not represent the true intention of the voucher bill. I also agree that it would be a waste to pay them to educate their children. I mean, why should we pay them to educate their children?
Oh, I remember. It's because their tax money is educating mine!
Hate crime laws should be left out
On Aug. 27, James Harrington of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission's Texas Advisory Committee wrote a guest column for the Amarillo Daily News about hate crimes.
I was deeply disappointed in his lack of moral consistency. He's an avowed liberal, yet he approves of hate-crime legislation. Surely he, as an educated man, knows that hate-crime legislation punishes thought. (Remember that our laws already punish intent, i.e. first-degree murder vs. involuntary manslaughter). It appears the reason Harrington, and people like him, approve of "thought-crime" legislation, is because it makes him feel good.
He can point his accusing finger at those unsophisticated, redneck whites (meaning those with different opinions than him), and tell himself how enlightened he is, and how raciest they are.
And never mind that approximately 90 percent of interracial crime is perpetrated by blacks on whites. Harrington never addresses those facts because it doesn't fit his agenda. And it appears his agenda is the erosion of the rights of freedom of disapproved speech and disapproved thought and to negatively stereotype most white citizens.
His mind-set enables racists of color to feel justified in their prejudice.
The far left viewpoint that gets so much media play depicting white Americans as unrepentant, ignorant, institutionalized racists, by isolated incidents by criminals, stops the healing dialogue between races.
It appears the real goal of passing hate-crime laws is to punish only one race and to point fingers. That's exactly what I've come to expect from the far left.
Some rights make a wrong
Using abortion to fight crime, as reported in Ellen Goodman's article Aug. 17 deserves to be looked at very closely. The statistics gathered by John Donohue and Steven Levitt indicate that for every ten babies killed before birth we would eliminate one criminal. Gosh! I thought the liberal philosophy was that it was better to let 10 criminals loose rather than put one innocent person to death.
Also it might be noted that for every criminal butchered before birth we would be killing nine people who could be productive citizens and consumer.
Statistics also show that between 1973 to 1997 the number of babies hacked to pieces before birth numbered about 34.5 million. If they had been allowed to live they would have paid $36 trillion in Social Security taxes, which would wipe out that shortage. They would also have paid over $20 trillion in income taxes which would wipe out the budget deficit plus $14 trillion for the bureaucrats to play with.
Joe Scheidler said to completely eliminate crime you just need to kill everybody. Another way. Make everything legal. "Where no law is, there is no transgression" (Romans 4:15). "Sin is not imputed when there is no law" (Romans 5:13). Of course if we go that route I sure want the best gun money can buy.
If you want to increase the number of adherents to your ideas or religion, or don't like minorities, just have more babies than they do. We could close our borders and keep out those we don't like or encourage reproduction for Americans and give other countries contraceptives.
Everything would be so simple if we could just forget about God and his laws, and think only of ourselves. So you don't want that baby? Just flush it! It has no right to life, liberty, pursuit of happiness or choice. But you do!
Time to grow up
I have read most of the opinions regarding the reassignment of Mike Shumate and am appalled at all the hoopla.
While going through my child's school papers from last year, I came across a newsletter that stated the River Road Independent School District and the Highland Park District had joined the Amarillo Crime Stoppers. The Amarillo Crime Stoppers became one of the largest programs of its kind in Texas.
Now because of disagreements between so-called adults who aren't getting their way, committee members are resigning and some of the sponsors are pulling out and taking their toys home. The result of these actions could be the end of the Crime Stoppers.
If a school teacher chooses to move someone from the front to the back of the class for not following the rules, is that reason enough for those that don't agree to get up and walk out? Why not? That's the way the Amarillo city government works out its problems.
Our children are being taught zero tolerance in school. What about the work place? People of Amarillo, please sit back and look at the examples you are setting for our young people. Some will probably respond that a person has to stand up for what they believe. I believe the same thing. But I believe this incident has been taken to the extreme. Through my years of working, I have found that no one is irreplaceable.
Mike Shumate did an excellent job but he didn't do it by himself. He may have coordinated the Amarillo Crime Stoppers, but if not for the entire Amarillo Police Department and the people of Amarillo, the program would not be the success that it has been. Our children have been taught to respect and respond to this program and its purpose. Please stop the bickering and set a good example for our children. I for one, want my children to be proud of the entire police department and the City of Amarillo.
A good choice
I have to admit I am a big fan of Mike Shumate's. He has a lot of ability, seemed to have a love for his work and by all I have seen has done a tremendous job for the Amarillo Police Department and Crime Stoppers. I was sad to hear of the controversy and sorry to see him leave. Then I picked up the paper and read that Brent Harlan had been appointed to head the Crime Stoppers program. I was once again excited about this wonderful program!
Brent Harlan is a rare gem. He is full of integrity, industrious and kind. I feel sorry that so many people got caught up in the soap-opera like tale that they pulled support from the work. Amarillo can do no better than Mr. Harlan. He is one of the finest of his profession. I challenge all those who pulled their support of Crime Stoppers to talk to Brent Harlan for five minutes. They too will see that even they may not agree with the decisions made to replace Cpl. Shumate, they can without reservation throw their support behind the program and its new leader.

Community Board 4 Moves to Outlaw Sunday Booze in Bushwick
A kind of blue law comes to Brooklyn.
The powers that be at Brooklyn's Community Board 4 are imposing a new rule upon the neighborhood's bars and restaurants that requires a midnight closing time one day a week, DNAinfo reports. "We're asking that everyone close at midnight on Sunday," explained board district manager Nadine Whitted. To that end, not only new establishments seeking liquor licenses will be affected, but those seeking renewals are also subject to what amounts to a blue law. There's no clear sign of any significant opposition to the new policy, so it certainly looks like the naked Roberta's waitress picked the right time to take it all off and head outta town.

Off to Moscow
By christophersaul on Nov 16, 2008
Sun to Weds in Moscow this week, meeting Sun people, partners and customers.
My previous visits to Moscow always happened to find me in the middle of reading a Le Carre novel - it was always strange touching down quite happily at Domededevo and whizzing through immgration, when the characters in the book I'd been reading on the plane, set only twenty or so years earlier, had to take rather more elaborate steps to get in.
This Moscow trip also poses the Dubai traveller's dilemma - squeeze all your warm clothes into your suitcase and risk not being able to take it on as hand luggage, or walk around the terminal wearing them? I've compromised on this trip - warm jumper under my arm, hat, scarf and gloves in my laptop bag, but no overcoat, so I don't look too out of place next to the tourists in shorts and t-shirt. Given the average temperature the AC is set to in Dubai, wearing a hat, coat and scarf might be more comfortable...

Verizon's HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE will be priced at $149.99, leaked document claims
Despite what one Verizon website claimed at one point (for just a short while though, after which it was taken down), the upcoming HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE may end up costing $149.99 with the obligatory two-year contract.
At least that's the pricing that has been revealed in the latest MAP list leak originating at Verizon. In this Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) list you can clearly see the new Droid Incredible being priced at that level.
Of course, this could be the pricing after a mail-in rebate, Droid Life speculates. In that case you'd actually end up paying $199.99 in-store, and then you'd get $50 back after mailing in that rebate form.
These MAP list leaks are usually pretty reliable, so it's entirely possible that we now know what the Droid Incredible 4G LTE will cost when it launches.
And speaking of that, we still have no indication at all from Verizon (official or leaked) about when that may be. This is one of the most leaked devices in recent history, and after many months of leaks Verizon finally decided to announce it last month – sans pricing of release date info. So the waiting game isn't over just yet.

DANCEHALL star Tommy Lee Sparta received some bad press last week after his highly publicised Trinidad show ended before it even started.
The "Uncle Demon" deejay was billed as the headline act for "Sparta The Concert" at Guaracara Park in Pointe-a-Pierre, Trinidad.
However, promoters of the event called off the show at approximately 2 am after only nine patrons made their way to the venue.
A rep for Tommy Lee sent Urban Islandz a statement blaming high crime rate and the location of the venue for the poor turnout.
"Besides rain at the outdoor venue, Trinidad is presently experiencing a spike in crime rates and most persons did not feel comfortable going out to the event," Tommy Lee reps said in the statement. "The location selected by the promoter was farfetched in South Trinidad."
Since the incident, Tommy Lee has released two new singles titled "Do Weh Mi Feel" and "C4."

"How Come This Stuff Isn't Animated?" The Story of Mr. GIF
Mr. GIF wants to animate the Internet. The creative duo has made photographing and illustrating GIFs—the 27-year-old bitmap image format that supports crude animation—their calling card. They're the team that Marc Ecko, Evian and Transamerica tap when they need to quickly make strong, easily shareable moving images for whatever they're selling. In just a few short years, they evolved from a pair of daydreaming MTV plebes to shooting Miley Cyrus and 2Chainz backstage at fashion week. To them, still images that move were obviously taylor-made for the Internet and its thousands of screens. But can you really make a career of making GIFs?
The duo, Jimmy Repeat and Mark Portillo, are college buddies. They studied advertising design together at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Their studies were almost irrelevant—Portillo didn't even finish—but the renowned art and design school is where the two would meet. Less than seven years later, they would quit their jobs to make GIFs—the full-time for clients like and others. Even an insurance company.
Having gone their separate ways after school, Repeat and Portillo reconnected under the umbrella of Viacom, at MTV's "Geek" vertical, which covers cartoons, comics and videogames. Doing research for work, they devoured the same comics, but were struck by the format's limitations.
"We were like, 'How come this stuff isn't animated yet?'" Portillo remembers. "We read Akira and we were like, "If this background was giving me seizures, it would be so much better.'"
So they dreamed up a GIF comic over smoke breaks outside Viacom's Times Square HQ, and quickly learned why animation was so expensive (it's a lot of work!). They abandoned the book idea, throwing the frames they'd finished up on Tumblr. But they were having fun. Illustrations gave way to photos, and a thought: "How is the GIF better than the JPEG?"
"We saw the potential," Repeat says. "Everywhere you look, there's a screen."
As relative neophytes—Repeat especially—they were intrigued by the technology of photography. They experimented with odd cameras well-suited to the medium; at first, digital models like the Fujifilm FinePix Real3D W3, but they would later become obsessed with the aesthetics of analog. Toy cameras like Lomography's Pop 9 (a nine-lens camera that makes nine exposures at once) and ActionSampler (four lenses, four consecutive frames), even 3D film cameras like the Nimslo 3D. The multi-exposure cameras helped streamline their workflow—helpful, as they had to develop and scan each frame to animate their GIFs. They found creative ways to merge digital and analog, using a DSLR to make time-lapse clips of instant film as it developed. They have a lot of cameras.
They spent their nights and weekends making GIFs and posting them to Tumblr for free. It wasn't long before Mark Ecko came calling (tweeting, actually) with their first paid gig, animating his upcoming TEDx presentation. They powered through it in three days. "I think we made 200-300 GIFs in one night," Portillo says. "It was intense."
"That was the beginning of the end for our day jobs," Repeat says. "Like, 'Oh, this is what a good client's like?" Ecko dug the work, and they started to get more gigs. They GIF'd the U.S. Open for Evian, and fashion week for Tumblr. By 2013, they had quit MTV, and would soon score a huge project: a year-long Tumblr promoting the San Francisco-based insurance company Transamerica's "Transform Tomorrow" campaign.
The pair convinced Transamerica to send them across the country making GIFs of America's cities. They flew drones over rooftop gardens in Detroit, Mt. Rushmore in South Dakota and, of course, San Francisco and the iconic Transamerica building. They booked a room at a luxury hotel with the perfect view for a 24-hour time-lapse of the skyline. Transamerica was skeptical of the format—until they saw the popularity of the first clip they posted. Now, when you go to www.transformtomorrow.com, their fancy hotel view of San Francisco graces the background, the current time of day reflected by the time of day in the 24-hour time-lapse they made.
Now certified pros, they're still almost instinctively inventive with their resources. When a client that was supposed to fly them out and put them up in Austin, TX, to shoot a SXSW panel told them that they had to pay their own way, they got their drive down to Texas sponsored. Their friends at Tumblr would connect them with Transamerica, but it was the GIFs they shot on the trip to Austin that would help them land the gig. When a job for St. Ives took them to Hawaii, they stayed an extra week and shot Honolulu for Transamerica. Since they like to shoot film (which is expensive to buy and process), rather than go to a professional processing house, they trained the local CVS employees how to prep and cut their negatives, adding a healthy tip for their trouble.
One thing they learned early on is that new work leads to new work. They needed to show clients they could make the work, so before they had paid work to show, they just did it for free, and for fun. The fun shows up in the work, and it works.

By Susan May, proud mother of Nick
In April 1989, Nick was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. He had a type of surgery called the Norwood Procedure at only five days old. He then had a right pulmonary repair at three and half months old, which included a seven weeks stay on a respirator, because of a damaged diaphragm nerve. Nick went on to have another surgery to repair the left pulmonary just after his first birthday. A few months before he turned two it was decided that Nick could only survive if he had a heart transplant. After a six weeks wait, Nick received his new heart on March 21, 1991.
Before being transplanted Nick was a blue color, only having an eighty-five percent oxygen level. Immediately after the transplant Nick was a nice healthy pink color. The first year after transplant was difficult. We made many midnight trips to the hospital, but in time the trips decreased. Nick suffered mostly from sinus troubles and ear infections, nothing serious, just troublesome. Nick grew and started pre-school, even rode the bus to school his first day of kindergarten. He has learned to swim, snow ski, water ski and has seen forty-eight of the fifty states and thirteen countries in Europe. He has been a member of Team Georgia at eight of the Transplant Olympic. He was a manager for his high school football team and plays tennis. He will be attending college next year and hopes to major in Sports Management.
Today, sixteen years and eighteen birthdays later, Nick is doing well. Heart transplants are not a fix, but a treatment, so we still worry about rejection and the future. But with all things said and done, it has been wonderful to see Nick grow up, which would not have been possible without the wondrous gift of a heart from Nick's donor family.
I have written a book about Nick experience called "Nick's New Heart." The book is about how our family coped and is coping with Nick's illness.

Daily Blog - 9/27/11
Tuesday, September 27, 2011
Happy Tuesday!
It was a good but busy weekend -with the wedding it seems like there is SOOO much stuff to do and never enough time! We did get 90% of the addresses for invitations and sent our Save the Dates yesterday so I am very happy about that! We also went to a few stores and registered for a ton of stuff we don't need (lol our house is full but we have to put something on the registry I guess!). lots of kitchen stuff - hopefully for cooking healthy stuff!
I had a great 10 mile run on Saturday - I was excited by that! I had only 5 hour sleep the night before, not a great dinner, and was on call for work so didn't expect that but it was awesome! didn't even need walk breaks - I stopped 3 short times for gatorade at the coolers and then kept going. I actually ran 7.5 and decided I could get in more before I got a work call so I went back out at mile and then I was at 9.5 so I went back out for the last .5 mile...it was great! I felt strong...my legs felt good...and I am feeling much better about my 3 half marathons (one in nov, one in dec, and one in jan!) now that I have 10 miles down! Its been since march since I've run 10 miles so the confidence booster by doing it was great!
I got my heart rater monitor replaced as well! REI upgraded me to a new model for free! It was awesome! I am so happy with the new one and it's working great so far! I did bootcamp yesterday morning and then after work I went to my first spin class in months! It was the great - the instructor was AWESOME super tough super intense...I loved it! I am glad the lights were off or everyone would have seen my goofy smile when we hit sprints...yeah I LOVE spin that much! I can't believe it's been so long since I did it! the girl teaching was a sub so hoping the regular instructor is just as awesome as well! I also tried body pump = a weight lighting barbell class...it was good - I really want more cardio but it was fun and since I did spin first I burned another 800 calories in body pump so I can't complain too much! hoping this is the jump start my body needs to start shedding pounds! I was thinking it was because I wasn't getting my heart rate up to a high enough rate for long enough...I had it over 170 quite a few times last night! I might do kickboxing on Thursday evening as well instead of my running and then run Friday mornings! kickboxing should ramp it up pretty high too!
Nice thing is that I'm a little stiff and muscles are fatigued -- but I'm NOT sore...yet! lol I know if I keep working out then it prevents the soreness! Eating is a little better - not great - I did cheat saturday night - mostly as a reward for an awesome 10mile run. I need to break that habit bc I've had plenty of reward meals that were unearned lately!
Was not great today but if I stay in line for dinner I might just come out ok!
Alrightly I'm off to run and strength train and run some more!!!

"Everything is funny for a second," says comedian Kenny Smith. "Everyone should laugh at everything, even the tragic stuff. For a second, then it's not funny" He elaborates; "if I saw a guy walking across the street and a van hit him I'd be like 'ha, ha, ha---oh, s***! That guy just got hit by a van! That's when I'd help him. 'Buddy, you o.k? Get an ambulance! Hey, that was funny as hell for a second." A regular on The Bob & Tom Show, Smith has been a fixture on college campuses for several years now, and is starting to become a draw at comedy clubs across the country. Perhaps it's those university gigs that have made him more socially conscious. "Don't say the 'n-word' white people, no matter how many CDs you have, no matter how many jersey's you have. 'Black people say it,' well, that's the rule. Black people have had a hard enough time, not you in your Fubu shirt and big pants, cut it out. I don't even say nickel anymore, it's too close. I say 'gimme five cents.'"
Kenny Smith performs at The Funny Bone on the Levee Saturday September 4 at 7:30 and 10:00. Tickets are $14.00 funnybone.com 859-957-2000

Favorite Peeta Quotes
454pages on

- #1"Peeta and I grow back together. There are still moments when he clutches the back of a chair and hangs on until the flashbacks are over. I wake screaming from nightmares of mutts and lost children. But his arms are there to comfort me. And eventually his lips. On the night I feel that thing again, the hunger that overtook me on the beach, I know this would have happened anyway. That what I need to survive is not Gale's fire, kindled with rage and hatred. I have plenty of fire myself. What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again. And only Peeta can give me that. So after, when he whispers, "You love me. Real or not real?" I tell him, "Real."329
- #2"Remember, we're madly in love, so it's all right to kiss me anytime you feel like it."134
- #3"Stay with me." "Always."131
- #4"you love me. real or not real" I tell him "real"96
- #5"By late afternoon I lie with my head in Peeta's lap making a crown of flowers while he fiddles with my hair claiming he is practicing knots. After awhile his hands go still. "What?" I ask. "I wish I could freeze this moment, right here, right now, and live in it forever," he says.71
- #6"My nightmares are usually about losing you," he says. "I'm okay once I realize you're here."67
- #7"I'm coming back into focus when Caesar asks him if he has a girlfriend back home. Peeta hesitates, then gives an unconvincing shake of his head. Handsome lad like you. There must be some special girl. Come on, what's her name?" says Caesar. Peeta sighs. "Well, there is this one girl. I've had a crush on her ever since I can remember. But I'm pretty sure she didn't know I was alive until the reaping." Sounds of sympathy from the crowd. Unrequited love they can relate to.She have another fellow?" asks Caesar.I don't know, but a lot of boys like her," says Peeta.So, here's what you do. You win, you go home. She can't turn you down then, eh?" says Caesar encouraging-ly.I don't think it's going to work out. Winning...won't help in my case," says Peeta.Why ever not?" says Caesar, mystified.Peeta blushes beet red and stammers out. "Because...because...she came here with me."57
- #8"Your favorite color... it's green?""That's right." Then I think of something to add. "And your's is orange.""Orange?" He seems unconvinced."Not bright orange. But soft. Like the sunset," I say. "At least, that's what you told me once.""Oh." He closes his eyes briefly, maybe trying to conjure up that sunset, then he nods his head. "Thank you." But more words tumble out. "You're a painter. You're a baker. You like to sleep with the windows open. You never take sugar in your tea. And you always double-knot your shoelaces."55
- #9Only keep wishing I could show the Capitol that they don't own me. That I am more than just a piece in there game. If I am going to die I still want to be me.45
- #10"Well, don't step on me."44
- #11"I'm more than just a piece in their Games."40
- #12"Sometimes when I'm alone, I take the pearl from where it lives in my pocket and try to remember the boy with the bread, the strong arms that warded off nightmares on the train, the kisses in the arena."38
- #13"You could live a thousand lifetimes and still not deserve him." -Haymitch to Katniss29
- #14You can never tell what you'll find in the arena. Say it's actually a gigantic cake.- Peeta26
- #15"Remember, we're madly in love, do feel free to kiss anytime you feel like it."25
- #16"So that day, in music assembly, the teacher asked who knew the valley song. Your hand shot right up in the air. She stood you up on a stool and had you sing it for us. And I swear, every bird outside the windows fell silent...and right when your song ended, I knew - just like your mother - I was a goner."22
- #17"And then he gives me a smile that just seems so genuinely sweet with just the right touch of shyness that unexpected warmth rushes through me."20
- #18"You here to finish me off, sweetheart?"20
- #19"It's just that I didn't understand when I met you. After your first Games, I thought the whole romance was an act on your part. We all expected you'd continue that strategy. But it wasn't until Peeta hit the force field and nearly died that I--" Finnick hesitates. I think back to the arena. How I sobbed when Finnick revived Peeta. The quizzical look on Finnick's face. The way he excused my behavior, blaming it on my pretend pregnancy. "That you what?" "That I knew I'd misjudged you. That you do love him. I'm not saying in what way. Maybe you don't know yourself. But anyone paying attention could see how much you care about him," Finnick to Katniss.20
- #20Katniss: For all I know, I could be killing you. Peeta: Could you hurry it up a little? Katniss: No, shut up and eat your pears.14
- #21"The games cost you much more than your life. They cost you you're soul."- Peeta Mellark13
- #22"Don't die for me. You won't be doing me any favors."11
- #23having an eye on beauty is not a weakness except if it is related to you11
- #24"She's a stinkin' mutt!"10
- #25"Bread."9
- #26if i die i want to be me9
- #27"Kill me"8
- #28"You know what my mother said to me when she came to say goodbye, as if to cheer me up she says maybe district 12 will have a winner. Then I realized she didn't mean me, she meant you.8
- #29"I think....you still have no idea. The effect you can have."8
- #30Movie - "ill take the bow" silence "just kidding"8
- #31What was that you were saying just before the food arrived? Something about me...no competition...best thing that ever happened to you..." "I don't remember that last part," I say, hoping it's too dim in here for the cameras to pick up my blush. "Oh, that'sright. That what I was t hinking," he says.7
- #32"I remember everything about you."7
- #33"Of course before the Quell. I'm sure we'd never have done it after we knew," says Peeta, starting to get upset. "But who could've seen it coming? No one. We went through the Games, we were victors, everyone seemed so thrilled to see us together, and then out of nowhere—I mean, how could we anticipate a thing like that?" "You couldn't, Peeta." Caesar puts an arm around his shoulders. "As you say, no one could've. But I have to confess, I'm glad you two had at least a few months of happiness together." Enormous applause. As if encouraged, I look up from my feathers and let the audience see my tragic smile of thanks. The residual smoke from the feathers has made my eyes teary, which adds a very nice touch. "I'm not glad," says Peeta. "I wish we had waited until the whole thing was done officially." This takes even Caesar aback. "Surely even a brief time is better than no time?" "Maybe I'd think that, too, Caesar," says Peeta bitterly, "if it weren't for the baby."6
- #34"Yes, frosting. The final defense of the dying."6
- #35"Peeta says it will be okay. We have each other. And the book." Katniss4
- #36"You're as useless as a dick flavoured lollipop Peeta"! - Katniss2

I've noticed that in magazines like Sport Compact Car, that a large amount of the writers/contributers for the magazine Pretty much imply, or in a couple cases say it outright that the 2JZ is the second best motor that came from a Japanese Car, The first, they say, is usually the RB26DETT, from the Nissan Skyline. We're not talking about which is the better car, but rather which is the better engine. Although I would much rather drive my Supra than a Skyline, don't get me wrong, their awesome cars. Is there any Logic to this? That alot, not all, but alot of people and Automotive writers that consider the RB26DETT Superior to the Supra 2JZ-GTE. I can't find the reason, so I'm wondering if anyone knows a reason why the RB26 is a better engine or is it a case of "the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, and since they were never officially sold in the states and only imported and since it has to go through so much red tape it costs WAY more than you could buy one in Japan For. I'm also not saying the 2JZ is better, I don't know enough about the RB26 to come to an Objective, Unbiased Opinion about which TT inline-6 is better? I would put my money on the 2JZ, but, like I said, I don't have the info to come up with an argument that would withstand scrutiny.
Thanks for helping me understand this.

There once were two very good high school girlfriends who loved being together just talking and sharing, as most teen girls do. One day they were sitting outside on the front porch talking, laughing, and having a good time.
The mother of the house came to the door and asked," I just want to know who is listening; you both are talking just as hard as you can."
I have thought about that a lot since the mother of that house was my mother. Often in my life, I have wondered, "Who's listening?" Sometimes I felt my husband and children never heard a word I said; and sometimes I felt that way with friends and co-workers.
We are the only species on earth that speak using words as a means of communication. The Holy Bible is often referred to as "God's Holy Word." In John 1:1, it says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around, will it make a noise? We have all pondered that question at one time or another. And Shakespeare said in one of his plays, "Friends, Romans, and countrymen, lend me your ears." There are 118 verses in the Bible referring to the "ear." There are 516 verses using the word "hear."
God gave us one tongue; and yet He gave us two ears. Wonder which He intended we use the most?
Like the tree in the forest, if there is no one listening can they hear the Words of God?
So often in relationships we want to do all the talking and none of the listening. Social sites seem to be a perfect place for that kind of friendship today. Rather than meeting face to face or on the phone, and having to wait for each other to have their say in the conversation, we can just post what we want to say and go our merry way. Texting has even taken the place of those intimate phone calls – just say it in abbreviated words and move on.
Life has become so busy for most us; we don't even take the time to listen to those around us who are dear to us. God is still speaking; but are we listening? We often hear people day, "God just does not hear and answer my prayers!" Answering prayer is a mystery and only God knows all. But perhaps God is speaking; or we are not listening; or we don't want to know His answers because we pray amiss.
Often in our relationship with God, we do the same thing. We manage to thank God for some of our blessings, and then we tell him who we want Him to bless, and then we ask Him for the things we want; and then we tell Him how we want Him to fix our lives. And then we hang up and say "Good-bye!" (Amen)
So often we, like the teens, are not good listeners. We talk and expect God to listen; but we don't listen back.
Virginia Stewart Metzler, a former missionary, has written a book that encourages us to be better listeners. Her book, "Our God still Speaks" leads the reader through important episodes in her life as a wife, mother, missionary, widow, and wife once again, and then adopted mother that solidified her faith that God has not changed; and just as He spoke and listened to the people in the Bible, He still does today.
Virginia was married at a very young age to a young missionary who lost his life while flying for the Lord in a small engine plane that when down. She gives us tidbits into her life and her journey of serving the Lord and how she came to realize that God still speaks today. She shares everyday events in her life along with an explanation as to how God spoke to her. First of all God speaks to us through His Word; and then through those who are called to preach His message; but more importantly, God speaks to us as individuals through our spiritual ears and hearts.
We accept the fact that God spoke to the Old Testament prophets. He spoke to Adam and Eve in the Garden, He spoke to Abraham, He spoke to Moses and He spoke to the world through Jesus. Through Virginia's book, she shares the events that took place in her life, and she knows that God still speaks to individuals because He spoke; and is still speaking to her.
After reading her book, you may also be reminded that God does not change; but we have. God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
Virginia has a wonderful webpage that gives many more details about why she came to write the book, and the events in her life that made this book possible.

There they served as missionaries with R. G. LeTourneau for two years. After Tommy's untimely death, Virginia moved back to the U.S. with her two small children, Vicki and Randy.
Virginia met Les Metzler after moving to California from Texas. They have now been married 53 years. Virginia and Les served as missionaries for 14 years with Wycliffe Bible Translators and the Summer Institute of Linguistics, including six years as support missionaries in the Philippines. Les and Virginia are the parents of two married children and an adopted daughter Hannah-Joy, a pre-med student. They are grandparents of eight grandchildren. Besides being a wife, mother and grandmother, Virginia is an artist, writer, a Bible teacher and a discipler of women. "God has been good to me all the days of my life! I have never doubted God's care for me or for my family members, as well. His provisions for me, I have never doubted. I had read the account in Matthew about the birds and how God cares for them and because I believe the Bible, I trust Him to take care of me."
Virginia gives her personal testimony and verification that "God still speaks" but it is up to us to listen.

|Time and travel can take its toll on your horse trailer.
Parked for weeks on end or longer allows the accumulation of
dust, water spots and generally lots of oxidation on painted
surfaces, stainless steel and aluminum. Long distance hauling to
shows can add road grime on top of everything else.
Having a clean, new looking trailer shows that you care
about your business, your horses and that you run a
quality training facility. No matter what size trailer you have you
probably put a lot of thought and money into owning it. Would you

On May 17, 1954, the U.S. Supreme Court made history and secured its place as a protector of civil rights in America. On that day, the Court issued its ruling in the Brown v. Board of Education case. This marked the day that the issue of "separate but equal" was determined to be "inherently unequal" and inconsistent with the Equal Protection clause of the U.S. Constitution.
The Brown case was one of the defining moments marking the start of the civil rights movement. It was greeted by African Americans and civil rights organizations with glee and triumph. However, other groups, particularly in the southern United States where school segregation was legal, were angered by the decision—and determined not to implement the Court's decision.
The Supreme Court's decision was unanimous. But the country was divided. People were made famous. Thurgood Marshall, who had been working with the NAACP and fighting for civil rights for many years, became a household name throughout the country. His life story is interesting and inspirational. Yet many Americans remain unfamiliar with this American hero.
Here are five great DVDs about Thurgood Marshall and the Supreme Court's position in the civil rights movement.
And remember May 17th as the day that destroyed segregation!
Separate but Equal (1991)
Star: Sidney Poitier
An excellent docudrama about the context, arguments, and Supreme Court deliberations and decision in the iconic Brown v. Board of Education case. Excellent performance (as usual) by Sidney Poitier as Thurgood Marshall. Burt Lancaster appears as Chief Justice Earl Warren, making his usual strong presence. This movie gives insight into this important case and the significant characters involved. It is a fictional account based on thorough research. Highly recommended!
Simple Justice (1993)
Special Note: The book is also great!
This is a powerful and interesting story of the life of Thurgood Marshall from his law school days until the Brown v. Board of Education case. There are mixed reviews about the power of the performances but the story is strong and focused. Great to see the different characters like Earl Warren and his relationship with Marshall. A great educational tool!
Thurgood Marshall: And Justice for All (2005)
Special Note: A powerful document detailing the life of a great American
This excellent biography about Thurgood Marshall shows his beginning then follows his education and career until his appointment as a Supreme Court Justice. In usual form, Biography channel shows this complex man from a multi-dimensional perspective. This biography is gripping and scintillating. And it provides the context of the civil rights movement as the background.
Thurgood (2011)
Special Note: This movie stars Laurence Fishburne
The name says it all! Thurgood Marshall was one of the most important people of the 20th century and this DVD shows his contributions and impact. Yet it does lack the focus on his other work with the NAACP. Laurence Fishburne gives a stunning and compelling performance in this movie. This was a very good piece of history and a strong docudrama about the iconic Brown v. Board of Education case. A good family movie for a Sunday afternoon!
With All Deliberate Speed (2004)
Special Note: Contains interviews with famous people in the civil rights movement
This excellent document provides the basic information about the Brown v. Board of Education case. However, it takes a different spin, focusing on the aftermath of the Court decision to show that the issue was by no means decided. Many states actively opposed integrating their schools. Some counties even closed their school systems rather than allow African American children to attend! This document has very interesting interviews with big names in the civil rights movement, including Julian Bond and Vernon Jordan. Thurgood Marshall, Jr. also makes a moving appearance. This movie should be shown in high school civics classes throughout the country!
The End of Segregation!
Some events in American history should never be forgotten. The Brown v. Board of Education case on May 17, 1954 is one such event. And it was an event that made heroes. Or did these heroes make the event? Watch these great movies and decide for yourself!

Songs We Can All Sing
With Vigor And Meaning
Chester Twarog
From: "Chester Twarog"
To: "Positive Atheism" <firstname.lastname@example.com>
Subject: Letter to Bud Selig
Date: October 23, 2001 12:59 PM
Bud Selig
Dear Mr. Selig,
Our nation did indeed suffer a disaster and tragedy on September 11th. The Islamic Fundamentalist Jihad terrorists sacrificed themselves in the name of their God, Allah.
The point mentioned because I am sincerely distraught that national baseball games have replaced the traditional Seventh Inning's "Take Me Out to the Ballgame", a most wonderful song for everyone, with "God Bless America", a song of intolerance, division and concern because which "God"? "Allah", "Jehovah", "Yahweh", even "Satan", for some, is exactly blessing America? Certainly, "God" did not bless America or NYC on September 11th!
And, which team is "God blessing" for the World Series?
As an Atheist (gods do not exist) and baseball fan, I am not happy with the 7th Inning substitution. US of A's Patriotism is not to which "God" one sings or prays to but rather the US Constitution and to:
"PLAY BALL" and "Take Me Out to the Ball Game"! We can all sing that with vigor and meaning and emotionalism.
The Islamic Jihad don't play baseball but state: "Allah (God) Bless Afghanistan"!

The SMU Mustangs will take on Temple in the first round of the inaugural American Athletic Conference Women's Soccer Championships. The match will kickoff at 6 p.m. CT on Friday. The winner will advance to play regular season champion UCF in the quarterfinals on Sunday afternoon. Both the first round and quarterfinal matches will be played at UCF (Orlando, Fla.). With two wins, SMU would remain in Orlando for the semifinals on Nov. 8 and championship in Nov. 10, which is planned to be broadcast online on ESPN3. SMU finished the regular season with three home matches, going 1-1-1 during the stretch.
SMU and Temple met for the first time on Sept. 29, with the Mustangs earning a 1-0 victory. SMU played a total of six teams for the first time this season - ULM, Colorado State, South Carolina, Temple, Louisville and USF. SMU finished 3-2-1 this season against first-time opponents, also beating ULM (8/23) and Colorado State (8/30).
Temple finished the season 6-11-1 (1-8-0), but lost its last eight matches. Temple started the year on a four-game win streak, shutting out each and outscoring them by a total of 8-0. The Owls picked up their lone league win against Houston in a 2-0 decision on Sept. 26. Temple is led by standout goalkeeper Suani Kerkhoff, who ranks third in the league in save percentage (.800), fifth in goals against average (1.25) and first in saves (92).
MUSTANGS TOP TEMPLE, 1-0, ON GORNEY GOAL (Sept. 29)
The SMU Mustangs picked up their first American Athletic Conference victory by defeating Temple 1-0 at the Ambler Soccer Field. Freshman Kelsey Gorney scored the lone goal while Lauryn Bodden picked up the shutout.
SMU outshot the Owls 15-3, including a 6-0 advantage in the second half.
Gorney got the Mustangs on the board in the 53rd minute, poking one home after receiving a cross from Courtney Smith. Rikki Clarke also recorded an assist on Gorney's fifth goal of 2013. Gorney is second on the team in scoring, and showed yet again how big of a role she can play in the SMU offense.
"She's really active and she's around the ball a lot, and that's how she's scored her goals" Head Coach Chris Petrucelli said.
SMU dominated the first half, tallying nine shots with three on goal. None of the scoring chances were converted into goals, however, with Temple goalkeeper Shauni Kerkhoff recording three saves in a scoreless first half.
Smith's assist gives her eight for the season, and moves her into a tie for seventh all-time at SMU with 25 in her career. Smith also had four shots with two on target. Shelby Redman (three) and Taylor Barg (two) were the other Mustangs with multiple shots. Bodden's shutout was her second in two starts this season and the seventh of her career.
Smith and Clarke are first and second on the team in assists, and their contributions have been critical to SMU's attack all season.
"A lot of our attack comes from Courtney in the back and Rikki through the middle," Petrucelli said. "We need them to keep putting balls in dangerous places."
Petrucelli liked what he saw from his offense on Sunday, but appreciated his defense even more.
"We won the game because we didn't give up goals," Petrucelli said. "We're excited about the progress our defense has made."
SMU recorded five shutouts in its first 10 games of the season, marking the first time since 1997 that the Mustangs have done so. That year, SMU went on to a 17-5-1 record and an appearance in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
SMU Head Coach Chris Petrucelli earned his 350th career win the Mustangs' 6-1 victory over ULM at Westcott Field on Aug. 23. Petrucelli became just the 16th coach in NCAA women's soccer history to total 350 wins. He also ranks ninth among Division I coaches all-time.
The Mustangs' win against Sam Houston State (9/16) was the program's 200th home win. SMU is 202-55-18 (.767) all-time at home. SMU has only had one season with a losing record at home since the program's inception, and has gone undefeated four times - 1988, 1995, 2001 and 2012.
SMU holds an all-time record of 119-25-11 (.803) against teams from the state of Texas, holding a winning mark against all 15 teams the program has played. SMU is 3-1 against Texas teams this season, losing to Baylor (9/1) and beating TCU (9/12), Sam Houston State (9/16) and Houston (10/18).
SMU wore pink jerseys during its home finale on Oct. 27 against No. 19 UCF, in recognition of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The jerseys were auctioned off in a silent auction during the game, with all proceeds benefitting Relay For Life. In total, the team helped raise $1,220 for breast cancer research.
