you've seen this video by now
Three different friends independently sent me this video in the last few days, so it seems people are pretty into the idea.
It's a UK band called the Get Out Clause that apparently filmed their video with 80 of Britain's CCTV cameras and then got copies by invoking the Data Protection Act. Edit it all together and–boom–done.
It wasn't the first in the style, though. The Frames, which includes everyone's current favorite indie wunderkind Glen Hansard (of Once fame), also shot a video in this manner, but apparently just using the cameras at a friend's workplace, a post office.

Yeovil soldier honoured for her bravery and skill
Armed Forces flag to be raised in Taunton
The British Armed Forces flag is being raised outside Deane House in Taunton this morning. Other towns and cities in the region are following suit ahead of Armed Forces Week, which recognises the work and sacrifice of servicemen and women.
Redundancies in armed forces announced
More than a thousand armed forces personnel are being informed today that they must quit the services as part of efforts to control defence spending.
It is unclear how many people in our region will be affected by these latest cuts to be announced by the Ministry of Defence.
A large number of people in the south west have already lost their jobs in previous rounds of cutbacks.
30% of the 3,800 confirmed redundancies are compulsory - with the bulk coming from the Army, which is facing the biggest overall cuts.
Defence Secretary Philip Hammond said fewer than expected were being axed from the Royal Navy and the RAF due to other measures such as slowed recruitment.
In total, 170 and 330 personnel from those two services are receiving notices - 29% of them on a compulsory basis.

What To Expect During The State Of The Union Address
Written by Your 5News Team
Last updated on February 12, 2013 @ 7:48PM
Created on February 12, 2013 @ 5:50PM
Tuesday night President Barack Obama will have the stage to himself to address the nation when he gives his first State of the Union speech as his second term as president.
On Tuesday officials said that President Obama will announce that 34,000 U.S. troops from Afghanistan over the next year. However, it looks like his speech will focus on jobs and the economy.
When he addresses the nation, President Obama will also probably talk about North Korea's latest nuclear test and he should touch on the gun debate that's been going on since the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary.
Sources close to the President have told the media his speech should focus around the economy and jobs. One advisor to the President said the theme Tuesday night will be "one about building the middle class from the inside-out as opposed to the top down".
Scott Crichlow, the chair of the political science department at WVU, told 5 News the president will probably mention that the U.s. economy is getting better, but not as fast some folks would like.
"He'll be presenting his plan for the future," Crichlow said. "He'll talk about what is possible to pass through Congress and what's not possible to pass through Congress."
Rose Dumire, a Morgantown resident, said she wants to hear President Obama talk about jobs and said she's looking to hear something positive.
The speech will take place at 9 p.m. and WDTV will air the State of the Union address.

I am trying to study the proof of the Chinese remainder theorem from the book Dummit and Foote (Section 7.6, page 266, third edition). The theorem itself is to show that $R/(A_1A_2\ldots A_k) \cong R/A_1 \times \ldots \times R/A_k) $ if the ideals $A_1, \ldots,A_k$ are comaximal, i.e $A_i +A_j=R$ if $i \neq j$. The proof is by induction and I understand the case $k=2$. Now they are trying to show that $A_1$ and $(A_2 A_3 \ldots A_k)$ are comaximal and I don't fully understand this argument. It is claimed that for $i \in \{ 2,3,\ldots,k\}$ there are $x_i \in A_1$ and $y_i \in A_i$ such that $x_i + y_i =1$ (I guess this follows from the hypothesis that the ideals are comaximal, and that $x_i +y_i \equiv y_i (\mbox{mod} A_1)$ (which is because $x_i + y_i + A_1 = y_i + A_1$ since $x_i \in A_1$ ). Now they say $1= (x_2+y_2) \ldots (x_k+y_k)$ is an element in $A_1 + (A_2 \ldots A_k)$.
I would be grateful if somebody can kindly elaborate on this last statement. I also don't see where they use the fact that $x_i +y_i \equiv y_i (\mbox{mod} A_1)$
Thank you.

Next up in Strange Beauty Show's bi-monthly gallery series… "Sportin' Waves."
Brian Chankin, founder of Odd Obsession Movies in Bucktown, has found a fantastic venue for the debut showing of his collection of more than thirty rare, hand-painted Ghanian barbershop signs at Strange Beauty Show.
The African continent boasts a rich history of artists who have produced a significant body of hand-painted advertising artwork. Even during a time in which less expensive printing options exist, the expressive, personal touch of a one-of-a-kind piece remains prevalent.
The West African country of Ghana is particularly well-known for their exquisite, hand-painted barbershop signs. Key components of these works typically include the shop or stylist's name and renderings of the latest men's and women's hairstyles. Always featured are tools of the trade found in a barbershop: scissors, combs, clippers, hair extensions, razors, and the hair product, "Sportin' Waves," a popular pomade in Ghana.
Accompanying the art exhibit, Rad Brian and Impala Sound spin an all-vinyl selection of Ghanian, Nigerian, and Jamaican tunes.
The exhibit will be on display at Strange Beauty Show through mid-March.
Strange Beauty Show's February Art Event happens on Thursday, February 13th from 7:00PM -10:00PM at the salon, located at 1118 N. Ashland.

The farmers are coming! The farmers are coming!
If you're looking for the freshest local weekday produce, get yourself down to Federal Park Plaza on Tuesdays between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Cowtown Farmers Market hosts local farmers who will wow you with tomatoes, peaches, breads, and more.
Talk of a downtown market grew in recent months, after the General Services Administration hosted a downtown pop-up market as part of its Earth Day celebration.
Tina Jaegerman, GSA's public affairs officer, said the response from employees and other downtown workers was overwhelmingly positive.
"We wanted to bring fresh food options to downtown and help support local vendors and small businesses," Jaegerman said. "People walked outside on their lunch hour and purchased fresh fruits and vegetables. They loved it."..click here to read entire Star Telegram article.
Thanks to the food-friendly rains so far this year, local producers have bumper crops of your farmers market favorites. Last year at this time, producers were feeling a bit of a pinch, but things got really crispy as the hot dry spring stretched into a horrendous summer. Berries, tomatoes, beans - all the market favorites are back with a delicious vengeance.
What a great way to add those all-important fresh fruits and veggies which provide antioxidants, vitamins, minerals - those wonderful nutrients which just about every diet guru says should be part of a healthy diet. Good and good for you.

Redshirt freshman Brett Perrine took over at Klosterman's opposite position and added 13 kills. Freshman Garrett Muagututia led the Bruins with 19 kills (.412) and 11 digs, followed by senior Paul George's 18 kills (.448), seven block assists and 21.5 points.
As a team, the Bruins hit .388 and out-blocked the Matadors, 16.0-9.5.

Live Soda Kombucha
by LIVE Soda Kombucha
Product Type
12 oz glass
Nutritional Info
Serving size: 8 fl oz Servings per bottle: 1.5 Calories 40 Total Fat 0g Cholesterol 0mg Sodium 0mg Total Carbohydrates 9g Sugars 9g Protein 0g
Organic Raw Kombucha (Organic Fair Trade Certified™ Tea, Organic Fair Trade Certified™ Evaporated Cane Juice, and Organic Kombucha Culture fermented in purified water), Natural Flavors, Organic Stevia Extract (Natural Sweetener).
Review: Sparkling Ginger (2014)
Posted: Mar 04, 2014 at 12:00 AM (Last Updated: Mar 06, 2014 at 1:35 PM)Blending kombucha with what is essentially ginger ale, Live Kombucha Soda's Ginger flavor is arguably the company's best effort to date. For starters, ginger is a flavor that is used extensively in the kombucha category, so this product is definitely something that will be familiar to both kombucha drinkers and soda drinkers alike. It's moderately sweetened with evaporated cane juice and stevia, while some moderate carbonation gives the product its crisp flavor. The kombucha doesn't really have a fermented flavor to it, but instead it adds a light tea flavor to the backdrop. However, you still get the benefit of live probiotic cultures (you can read about them on the back of the label). Otherwise, the product has 60 calories and about 13.5 grams of sugar per bottle. All in all, it's a very well-executed and enjoyable formulation. Packaging is a 12 oz. glass bottle, which has the company's recently upgraded branding. The product has a very clean and personable label that has a positive and good for vibe. There's minimal text on the front of the label, which is a good thing, while prime placement of the USDA Organic and Non-GMO Project badges should help the marketability of the product. Overall, a very solid addition to the Live Kombucha Soda lineup.

Message From The Pacific
Rather Than Adapting To His Environment, Man Is Adapting His Environment To Himself Today. The Culture Created In This Way Eventually Clashes With Nature, Whereas In Primitive Cultures There Is A Balance.
If you look at the etymology of the words nature and culture, you might get the idea that they are contradictory concepts. The word culture is derived from the Latin root 'colō' meaning to grow, cultivate or train, in other words, all the connotations of culture today. Nature on the other hand comes from the Latin root 'natura', meaning birth or to be born. Among humans, however, the border between nature and culture, which is of their own making, is blurred.
The transition from hunter-gatherer to agrarian society was the next step in man's struggle with nature, and his way of manipulating his environment to suit his needs perhaps his first step towards the beginning of his own end. Man's production of 'culture', which is actually an agricultural term, began in any case with the transition to agrarian society. If we acknowledge that culture is destructive and nature constructive, it may prove more useful to try to strike a balance between the two. First of all, society needs to ask itself this question: "How can a culture that is in harmony with nature be produced?"
It may be easier for us to answer this question in places where there are no big cities and no industrialization, where nature, in other words, still rules supreme. Taking a look at the indigenous peoples of the Pacific Islands, who live at peace with nature yet cheek by jowl with a 'developed' continent like Australia, may help us to reestablish the balance between nature and culture. Because the islanders have lived in harmony with nature ever since they first set foot here, it is inevitable that nature has been part and parcel of their cultures. In every area of life, from traditional medicine and everyday tools to navigation and the arts, the islanders have benefited, and taken inspiration, from nature. They believe that nature is closely bound up with their cultures, and they express that bond in traditional dances and personification of the natural environment. Convinced that globalization has severed the bond between nature and culture, the islanders are so attached to their nature, in other words, their cultures, that they believe global warming and natural disasters to be expressions of 'Mother Nature's Wrath'.
At the same time, the European discovery of the Pacific Islands has had enormous impact on the lives of the island natives. While the natives of the Solomon Islands, for example, used to worship their ancestors, today the majority of the population is Christian. What's more, you can generally communicate with people on the islands using English. Nevertheless, the islanders have not lost touch with their roots but continue to uphold many of their social traditions.
Preserving their ties with nature on the one hand, the islanders have also kept pace with civilization on the other. For example, although the islanders maintain their tribal way of life, the Solomon Islands are at the same time a leading destination, especially for surfers, as both a modern and a more authentic tourist destination. To us urban dwellers, who regard civilization and 'primitive' cultures as mutually contradictory, and who destroy the nature and environment that provide our own living space, the adaptability of these island natives can teach respect for nature and how to incorporate that harmony into our own way of life.
The 11th Pacific Arts Festival is taking place in the Solomon Islands July 1 to 14 based on the theme, 'Culture in Harmony with Nature'. Held every four years, the festival aims to draw attention to culture and nature as integral aspects of existence and to the necessity of keeping that bond intact.
The Solomon Islands where the festival is being held consist of 900 islands, 350 of which are inhabited. Eighty-seven different languages are spoken on these islands, which boast a culture estimated to go back some 5,000 years. The island where Europeans first set foot in the 16th century is named for King Solomon, who is believed to have lived here.
Made of bamboo tubes, pan pipes come in different lengths and widths. The instrument is commonly found in the Malaita region, where pan pipe bands are popular with tourists.
Seashells, the traditional currency, are still used on the islands. The 'bride price' that is part of local marriage customs is still paid in seashells.
Formed over many years, artificial islands have been created on reefs near the mainland by the buildup of large stony corals over time. The natives of these islands generally make their living from fishing.
Since many different languages are spoken on the islands, families and communities that speak the same language are called Wantok (from 'one talk').

It's difficult to imagine that a beach filled with windsurfers and sun-worshippers once hosted one of World War II's bloodiest battles.
But a Queen's University physicist and one of Canada's top international photographers are working on a project that reveals traces of the battle are all over the beaches — they are just too small to see with the naked eye.
Photographer Donald Weber and physicist Kevin Robbie are working on a photography project examining miniscule grains of sand from the beaches of Normandy. They are looking for the tiny scraps of evidence leftover from D-Day, the 1944 joint allied invasion that marked the turning point that led to the eventual victory over Nazi German forces.
"It really was a true collaboration between an artist and a scientist," Weber says. As he combed the beach in search of photographic opportunities on a macro-scale, the only Canadian among the 22 photographers that make up the elite VII Photo Agency, he gathered sand samples and sent them back to Robbie in Kingston, Ont.
Robbie then took the project to the miniscule level by putting the grains underneath the lens of equipment like an electron microscope with a high-resolution camera worth half a million dollars. Among ordinary sand grains and organic matter, the microscope revealed rounded spheres of iron no larger than a period on a printed page. Although these microspherules are sometimes produced after the metal is liquefied from meteorites exploding in the upper atmosphere, they can also occur with bomb and artillery explosions.
"Some of them stuck to each other in midair," Weber says.
The results are scattered all across the beaches of Normandy, especially on Omaha beach which played host to a particularly large battle.
"In my work, I'm always looking at small things that I don't see other than through the electron microscope, so it's neat for me to see a bit of history," Robbie says. "The remnants of this battle over 60 years ago are still sitting around in the sand."
The project is a true collaboration between art and science, displaying coloured microscopic photos of iron leftover from the Second World War. "(Weber) sees these tranquil beach scenes and, using the microscopes, I can see the shrapnel in the beach sand," Robbie says.
Although they've already shown some of their work at a photo-reporter festival in Saint-Brieuc Bay, France, the project is still very much in progress. Weber is planning another trip this spring armed with a camera-equipped drone to capture the beaches from the viewpoint of the invading forces.
Robbie is also interested in seeing if he can tell the difference between axis and allied steel. "A lot of the answers are just hidden from view in the beautiful landscapes that (Weber) takes," he says.
But there's certainly no rush. As Weber points out, "these sand grains are probably not going to last for 100 years. They are going to last for 100,000 years."
I am fascinated by this project and the technology, but confess to being a bit disappointed that they are photographing material from Omaha Beach (American forces) and not Juno Beach (where the Canadians landed). I do hope they get there as part of this project.
I agree completely with Tim Fletcher. Juno beach needs all the publicity it can get.
Hi - Actually, all five beaches are in the midst of being photographed. During my initial trip to the Normandy beaches in May 2013, I collected hundreds of samples from all the beaches. As you can imagine, sorting through hundreds of samples and trying to find microscopic bits of shrapnel can take days, weeks and in fact now months to sift, sort, scan and photograph. I wanted to start with Omaha Beach as it was the most bloodiest battle, experiencing not just artillery from air and sea, but intense fighting on the beach as well. Also, Omaha is the most confined in terms of the geography, and every stretch of the beach was used in the fighting. Juno, Gold and Sword are essentially all attached and not all spots on the beach experienced any fighting. Trying to pinpoint locations where intense fighting occurred or artillery assaults happened are all very sketchy in terms of information. Omaha, with it's small stretch of sand, and confined space meant I could walk the beach up and down at low and high tide and know that I covered the entire distance.
As a Canadian, Juno beach is next on the list of sand to be sorted and photographed... stay tuned there is a lot more work coming.

Ballet star Sergei Polunin walks out of 2nd show
Posted at: 04/05/2013 1:36 PM
By JILL LAWLESS
(AP) LONDON - One of the ballet world's brightest but most volatile stars has vanished, again.
Sergei Polunin had been due to star in a dance piece based on Billy Hayes' Turkish prison memoir "Midnight Express" opening next week in London.
But director Peter Schaufuss said the 23-year-old dancer did not show up for rehearsals on Wednesday.
Schaufuss told the BBC he was "hugely disappointed" the young star had left.
"I'm really, really worried about him," the director said. "Artists have good and bad days _ that goes with the territory _ but rehearsals were going well."
The dance company said Polunin's mentor, Igor Zelensky, had also left the production.
Polunin's whereabouts could not immediately be determined Friday. But friend Anthony Lammin _ who co-owns a London tattoo parlor with the dancer _ told the Evening Standard newspaper that Polunin was OK.
"I don't know why he left the show," Lammin said. "We have been texting each other during the last few days. He's fine and is doing well."
Ukraine-born Polunin became the youngest-ever male principal dancer at Britain's Royal Ballet when he was 19, but walked out of the company last year, saying he was giving up dance.
He later said he had quit because he could no longer handle the stress of a dance career.
Polunin, who moved to Britain aged 13, had spoken in a 2011 interview about the pressure he felt to succeed.
"I would have liked to behave badly, to play football. I loved sport," he told The Guardian. "But all my family were working for me to succeed. ... There was no chance of me failing."
Polunin later returned to performing under Zelensky at Moscow's Stanislavsky Ballet and has made guest appearances with the Royal Ballet.
When his role in "Midnight Express" was announced late last year, Polunin said it was "exactly the kind of work I want to be making, and I'm thrilled to be a part of it."
The Peter Schaufuss ballet company said Danish understudy Johan Christensen would take over the main role in "Midnight Express," which opens Tuesday.

If testnet coins are this difficult to get, what's the chance people start throwing in some real money to speed along the process? If only to just have to not wait to test, say if you have an important time sensitive simulation you want to run?
I have recently created a TestNet Faucet. It is available on
I hope this remedies the situation
To answer your question - while there is nothing stopping people from charging for TestNet coins, I think they should be freely available to anyone for testing. It lets newcomers get a feel for what Bitcoin is without risking their money. I hope that a few Bitcoin developers (or even the Bitcoin Foundation) will provide TestNet Bitcoins for free as long as the Bitcoin project is used.
You can always try to hit up a developer on #bitcoin-dev IRC channel (Freenode).
Also, there is now a faucet:
As an alternative to the great tpfaucet, we also give away free testnet coins at
We should help out our fellow developers with testnet bitcoins. There's no need to pay for them.

Bear stories are creeping up in the mountain news again as active bear season heats up.
Today, a bear was killed in Bailey after entering a home and biting the homeowner. The homeowner had tried to scare the bear away and out of the home.
MOUNTAIN LIVING TIP OF THE DAY: Colorado Division of Wildlife experts urge you to simply exit your home immediately if a bear enters for a visit; don't try to engage the bear or frighten it away. Unless you enjoy seeing bear teeth up close.
Read the brief news story here from the Denver Post.

There is an immense variety of sport hunting areas and options within Zimbabwe, from private ranches and communal land concessions to the great national hunting areas of the Zambezi Valley and Matabeleland; from bird shooting and plains game to the Big Four.
Operators must hold a lease or agreement on a suitable concession with an approved quota of animals. They are responsible for the official paperwork and permits connected to the hunt.
Bow and handgun hunting are permitted on an experimental basis, but require special permits. Black powder is legal provided the weapon complies with the requirements of the Third Schedule of the Firearms Act. This also applies to handguns.
Hunting operators are required by law to provide the services of a Zimbabwe Licenced Professional Hunter to accompany foreign hunters in Zimbabwe. Licencing is undertaken by the National Parks & Wildlife Authority. Professional Hunters write a Learner Examination, and are then apprenticed to a fully-licenced Professional Hunter for two years. During this time they must pass a shooting test set by the Zimbabwe Shooting Federation and obtain an Advanced First Aid Certificate.
They then attend a Proficiency Test in the field. Full Licence holders carry a plastic disc issued by the Parks Authority which shows their photograph, ID number and licence number. Learner Licence holders carry a paper licence with their details and a licence number.

South Floridians should report spam text
Spam text messages on your mobile device are not only annoying, they're an illegal invasion of your personal mobile phone space. And just like junk email, spam texts help spread offers from questionable companies and senders.
If you are receiving spam texts, report it to your carrier to help curb this growing threat.
"We have a large, tech savvy customer base here in South Florida, many of whom are probably familiar with texting spam, " said Kelly Layne Starling, a South Florida spokeswoman for the AT&T, which recently launched a public awareness campaign to encourage customers to report spam texts.
"With the growing number of unwanted text messages that customers are receiving, we're trying to raise awareness of our 'SPAM' (7726) short code," Starling said. "South Florida customers can use the code to report unsolicited text messages. The more customers use the code, the quicker we can block numbers that are sending the unwanted messages."
Anytime an AT&T customer receives an unwanted message, they can forward the text message and the sender's phone number to the text code 7726, or SPAM, free of charge.

The 126th Medical Company (Air Ambulance) had its first drill in Sacramento, California in March of 1974. At that time, the unit's mission was to provide emergency lifesaving support for the training activities of units of the California National Guard as well as a fully qualified helicopter MEDical EVACuation (MEDEVAC) unit to the State for civil disasters and other emergencies. Yet another mission was to be available to replace a MEDEVAC unit in the active forces, in the event of a national emergency where the active unit was deployed overseas.
Since then, the 126th Med Co has enjoyed one of the richest histories of any Army aviation unit, having been constantly involved in lifesaving, search and rescue, firefighting, and relief operations throughout the State and many places in the world. The 126th has been activated twice, once to be deployed to Ft. Sam Houston, Texas (1990-1991) to replace a unit being sent to the Mid-East during the Gulf war and more recently to Bosnia (1998-1999) to provide MEDEVAC support for NATO forces.
The pilots and crewmembers of the 126th Med Co are among the most qualified in the world of aeromedical evacuation. The everyday mission of the 126th is 100% real-world in that the unit maintains fully equipped, mission-ready aircraft on constant standby for emergencies of all types. Because of its ongoing missions and continuous employment in California, the 126th Med Co is considered by many to be the "most utilized helicopter MEDEVAC unit in existence," exceeding that of the active forces.
The pages below contain images and captions about the people and times of the 126th Med Co. They're intended to tell a story while at the same time stirring recollections among viewers who may have been a part of the unit during that era. Any of the images can be downloaded by simply right-clicking on them, once displayed. This site will continue growing and expanding so keep checking back.

Thank God for Extensions!
Tuesday, March 05, 2013
I was supposed to present at lab meeting tomorrow morning with my presentation that I will give to my committee meeting on March 12th. Obviously I'm nowhere near ready with all the house stuff going on.
I got my boss to push it to Friday... and then it ended up getting rescheduled to Monday, the day before my committee meeting. This is GOOD. This gives me time to devote to that, plus I will have my final version by then *hopefully -- and then the rest of Monday to retool it for my committee meeting on Tuesday.
I feel like a weight has been lifted and I no longer feel like puking from the stress. Regardless of this I have still done at least 10 minutes of exercise each day. I am determined to streak into spring with Spark. My arm is healing! I can actually tell every day how much my skin is closing. I've got about 1" wide and 4" long now instead of over 3" wide and 6" long. Its a big improvement. It still bugs me when I try to reach over my head, so I'm trying not to do that.
On the house front, the realtor comes tomorrow to make the youtube video and take photos. My mom is stressing. There's still a lot of little things to be done. So my goal for today is to stay here until three and make some real progress on my powerpoint presentation, even if it is a rough draft, and then go home and help her finish up and try to keep her panic down.
I swear I get all of my anxiety issues from her, but both her and my dad are on anti-anxiety meds. I just borrow them for times like this where I make myself sick with worry. The realtor popped by yesterday and was impressed at what had been done -- so he was really positive. Its just a lot of little projects that my mom think are essential, but in reality won't show up in pictures. (she wants to pull the washer and dryer out and clean behind them?!)
So that's pretty much it. I did another 50 squats last night while watching the Biggest Loser and got in around 250-300 crunches. I'm taking it slow... slowly building my muscles back up. Seeing what doesn't hurt my arm... I'm telling you though, once this sucker closes, I'm needing to get some cardio endurance back. And I will get back up to 2000 crunches before the end of April. I am just glad that at least I know that I can stay at a maintenance level. Not counting calories but trying to eat better, and not exercising and I still have only gained less than 10 pounds through this whole surgery debacle. I can only use this as fuel to get moving again once I'm able.
Hopefully the house will sell quickly.
Hopefully my committee makes no fuss next Tuesday and quickly agrees to let me defend on April 26th.
Hopefully I get the job interview in April in St. Louis.
My mindset is better than it has been the last few days. My mom is even taking my dogs back with her tomorrow to live at her house so that I can focus on keeping the house show ready and I can stay at work longer focusing on writing my dissertation. Its going to suck but at least I know its only for the short term.
Okay everyone -- if I can keep myself positive through all of this stress and get in more than 10 minutes of exercise every day -- you can too!

This might sound horrible, but when I read your blog title, I thought you were talking about HAIR extensions!!! They DO tend to make everything better!
I am glad that your arm is starting to heal up. You deserve a reprieve for that. And hopefully the house sells quickly so you can get to St. Louis.

YAY, so much good news after all the stress! Don't stress over the little things on the house, really. I can't imagine it won't sell because there's dust in one corner or something; people don't care about that stuff, they care about like permanent unfixable things. It will be fine.
AH, extension! Ahhhhh. Just reading "committee meeting" gives me hives, haha. Good luck with your presentations! You'll be awesome.
And I saved the best for last: YAY OMG YAY YOUR ARM IS HEALING YAY!!!!!!!!!

YAY that your arm is finally healing! Definitely keep doing what your doing!
I've had anxiety issues for a long time, and it's still a struggle even now. Sometimes I have to sit down and write out a list of things I can control vs. things I can't. The things I can control I write down what my next step should be on those. I try to focus on those and push the things I can't control out of my mind. I'm not always successful, but writing it down sometimes helps pull it out of my head.
Glad your meeting was rescheduled! And way to go on that exercise streak!

Bob Arum: Schaefer promised to bring Mayweather to showtime
Don't know if anyones come across this yet? It's from the video with Dibella and Arum about the Chavez-Martinez fight and Arum goes on to say that the only reason that Golden Boy are getting all these showtime dates are because they promised Mayweather will fight on HBO.
Probably just Arum being Arum, found it on the site that hypes fights.

Seems correct, really it would just be a matter of prestiege to either network so even just bringing in that thought could really spark a bidding war for Floyd.
Showtime could spend a lot just to say Floyd fought on our network, and it would probably be worth it as long as they are commited to boxing and a lot of the cost would be eaten up by PPV revenue.

Floyd has been saying for years now that he gets 100% of his money.
Richard, and Al hayman make their money by using Floyd as leverage to get money and dates from the networks.
Thats why Floyd fights nothing but Goldenboy fighters.
He gets them on 24/7 and in front of a big PPV audience.
Why do you think Canelo is always on Floyds undercards?
Because Goldenboy is using Floyds name to build up their fighters.
In return Goldenboy brings sponsors, and other relationships they have built over the years to the table to help promote Floyds fights.
Al Hayman gets Berto and all the other fighters he manages big pay days and dates on the networks off of his relationship with Floyd.
But Al doesn't have a contract on Floyd.

Al Haymon may have, I noticed that he has pretty much taken over Showtime with his fighters...which is not really a bad thing because Haymon got a very impressive Roster Of Fighters
So if they did Promise Mayweather to Showtime for at least 1 Fight....WTF IS WRONG WITH THAT? I like Showtime Broadcasting Team a lot more then I do HBO's OLD BITTER TEAM
So I personally wouldn't mind seeing Mayweather on Showtime, hell I would love to see Mayweather fight at least one fight on Network TV

First off how would he know? He doesn't, it's just another Arum rant of complete lies.
Secondly, Schaeffer while making Mayweathers fights has absolutely no say in what Mayweather does. so if he actually promised that he is an idiot, but I doubt he did.
Mayweather is in good with HBO.

TC TO EDWARD CHAPMAN ; 23 December 1857; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18571223-TC-EC-01; CL 33: 137-138
Chelsea, 23 decr 1857
Dear Sir,
Unless it is altogether inconvenient, will you now, to keep the Christmas Hawks out of my eyes, send me the Draught you spoke.1 Crossed, it will come by the Post; and I will return a receipt.
Holl was here the other day; had seen the Picture; wished to have it beside him;—and has, this morning (if the Post was faithful) got Lord A.'s permission to come or send for it. If he is to do (as I suppose it will be he) the Frontce to Vol 2d too,2 I hope you will keep him to his work,—that there be no waiting in the end.
I have got some Berlin Prints; but no King (Father) I like so well as one I have already here;—there is a much better Queen3 but she is 10 years too old for us. I am about trying Berlin again by a new ethod. You and Holl shall hear when the Result arrives.

Jan. 10, 2013
TEMPE, Ariz. - The Arizona State University football program's 2013 schedule will feature two conference champions, the national championship runner-ups and traditional Pac-12 rivals, ASU Vice President for University Athletics Steve Patterson announced Thursday.
Eight of ASU's 2013 opponents played in bowl games this past season, including the BCS National Championship and Rose Bowl. Two programs registered 12 wins and four won at least nine.
"With the loaded non-conference schedule and the always tough Pac-12, I think our football team has one of the marquee schedules in the nation," Patterson says. "I'm looking forward to the chance to prove ourselves against some of the toughest teams in the country and this is yet another reason for Sun Devil fans to be excited about the 2013 season."
The Sun Devils face three BCS teams in four weeks as they host Big 10 champion Wisconsin on Sept. 14 before opening Pac-12 Conference play on the road against Rose Bowl Champion Stanford on Sept. 21. ASU's home conference schedule begins on Sept. 28 against USC before traveling to Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, for an Oct. 5 matchup against Notre Dame.
The 12-game schedule includes seven games at home, four on the road and one at a neutral site, and three of the first four games will be played in Tempe. ASU will open the season on Sept. 7 at Sun Devil Stadium against Sacramento State and end the year at home against Territorial Cup rival Arizona on Nov. 30."We are excited to prepare for the 2013 football schedule coming off the momentum of the 2012 season that we just completed," Head Coach Todd Graham says. "We have seven amazing home games and a premier game with Notre Dame in the Dallas Cowboy Stadium. It has to be one of the top five schedules in the nation."
ASU reached the eight-win plateau for the first time since 2007 and ended the season with three straight wins for the first time since 1978, including a 41-34 Territorial Cup victory in Tucson and a 62-28 win over Navy in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl.
Headlined by consensus first team All-American Will Sutton, the Sun Devils are returning 16 starters, including linebackers Carl Bradford and Chris Young, safety Alden Darby and defensive lineman Jaxon Hood on defense, and running backs DJ Foster and Marion Grice, quarterback Taylor Kelly and three offensive linemen on offense.
Football season ticket renewals for the 2013 season were sent to current season ticket holders in November offering a loyalty discount for renewing by the deadline of Jan. 15. The Sun Devil Ticket Sales Team will begin selling new season tickets for the 2013 season on Jan. 16, and any football season ticket purchased between the Jan. 16 on sale date and May 15 will be at the reduced early-bird rate. Tickets purchased starting May 16 will be at the 2013 season ticket price. To secure your seats and take advantage of early-bird pricing, call (480) 965-5333.
The Sun Devils' remaining home schedule includes Colorado on Oct. 12, Washington on Oct. 19 and Oregon State on Nov. 16. Homecoming is set for the game against the Huskies and ASU's bye will be the week of Oct. 26.
ASU will travel to Washington State on Halloween for its only Thursday night game of the year before making trips to Salt Lake City and Los Angeles to face Utah on Nov. 9 and UCLA on Nov. 23, respectively.
The Pac-12 Championship game will be played on Dec. 7 at the home stadium of the team with the best overall conference record. For the first time in its three-year history, the game will be played on a Saturday and will be televised by either ESPN or ABC.
Every Pac-12 team will have two "misses" each year, or teams they do not face. ASU's misses in 2013 are Cal and Oregon.
For the second year in a row, fans all across the country will be able to watch every football game played at Pac-12 sites. A combination of the ESPN channels, ABC, and FOX will broadcast 44 games nationally and Pac-12 Networks will offer 35 games to a national audience. Exact broadcast schedules will be determined at a later date.

Get ready for a big temperature swing across Central Indiana this weekend!
Highs will reach the low 60s today with patchy fog diminishing as we head into mid morning. A mix of sun and clouds will give way to more sunshine this afternoon as highs reach 60 degrees. Temps will likely be warmer south of I-70, where less cloud cover is expected this morning into the heating of the day.
Tonight, temps drop to the upper 40s with partly cloudy skies.
Sunday, highs will soar close to 80! Sunday's temperature record is 82 set back in 2010. There's a 30% chance for an afternoon shower or thunderstorm. An isolated thunderstorm may contain hail. There will be plenty of dry time, and not everyone will see rain.
Monday brings more summer like heat with highs in the low 80s. Monday's record high temp is 81 set back in 2010. Again, we'll be watching the radar for scattered showers or storms. A washout is not expected.
Cooler temps start to settle in starting Tuesday as we drop to the 70s, and by Wednesday we're back in the 60s.

Not everyone has heard of "Big Brother 16" houseguest Frankie Grande's sister Ariana. She is an actress and singer with legions of teen followers. It seems that Ariana Grande may play a part in one of the twists coming up on "Big Brother 16."
According to a report on Friday, June 28, Ariana Grande's ex-boyfriend BradTheLadLong is going to be a entering the "Big Brother 16" house. The controversial YouTube personality goes by the name BradTheLadLong. There is not any confirmation that BradTheLadLong and Ariana Grande dated, except for a report on Twitter. Also no known is if Frankie and Brad ever met each other and if they are on speaking terms.
The rumors started when BradTheLadLong's name was linked to the "Big Brother UK" but he was not a houseguest. It is said that his agent put his name out there for "Big Brother UK" to throw the media off track and give producers and opportunity to bring BradTheLadLong to the United States for "Big Brother 16." Despite reports that BradTheLadLong is in the United Kingdom, he has been spotted in the United States recently.
Just who is BradTheLadLong? He is described as one of the most controversial YouTube personalities ever. He created his YouTube channel in 2007 and acquired a following of 400,000 subscribers. He was banned permanently from YouTube for inappropriate content. Eventually he was allowed to return to YouTube but never reached the viewership he has previously enjoyed.
Interestingly enough, Frankie Grande is also a YouTube personality with nearly 200,000 subscribers. He has not revealed to his "Big Brother" housemates who he is, only saying he performs on Broadway. He did, however, wish his sister "Ari" a happy birthday on the first night of the live feeds.
There has not been any confirmation regarding any additional houseguests entering the "Big Brother" house but if BradTheLadLong is added it will be interesting to see if Frankie or Brad reveals that they know each other and whether or not they get along.
