RING!!! cizzy-swag.deviantart.com/art/…
Well as you all know me and Mason met at Kawa Kon 2009, it was a very breif meeting and we got closer about a month after at a cosplay hangout at the mall that we both went to and I organized. Anyways after a month after the mall cosplay we started dating on April 15th. Now I know others know that we broke up and such, but they were MAINLY for very breif amounts of time and we got back together after each time....Well ANYWAYS Kawa Kon means a LOT to both of us. We have been to EVERY kawa Kon since. We woudlnt miss Kawa for teh world.
So to continue we were ORIGINALLY going to have on Gumball and Marshall Lee in the morning... annnd when we decided not to Mason was a little upset and I didnt quite understand why..cause we were going to do Kingdom Hearts instead.. which means MORE to us... I said that he relaxed a little bit...and I was like uhh alright... I remember at some point during the day I said that we didnt HAVE to go to teh cosplay wedding if we were going to go and take pictures...and he tottallllly started freaking and saying we HAD to go 0_0 I totalllly should have seen that as a sign lol. Well we went down to the cosplay wedding and we got in our seats.
This wasnt the first cosplay wedding we have been too...we have been to liek three or four I believe and have been in at least 3 of them. ALL at Kawa I think 0_0...well ya we went inside and sat down and waited for our friends to go inside and sit with us. Now that I know what was going on...im kinda sad my other friends that we took to and from the con decided not to go and watch the event ...
Well the announcer girl came in and started marrying people. Me and Mason talked most of the time and clapped and such when it was appropriate, as we played with the bubbles and rose petals all over the table XD. After each 'marriage' the announce girl would call out who wanted to be next, and after a while EVERYONE at my table kept pointing at us! We had like 4 people we didnt know pointing at us to go now! >///< After like the FOURTH wedding we got called upon to go up.
We went through our little fake ceremony with little vows that were created by the con people. And then we were 'married' and everyone clapped.. THEN Mason motioned for the girl and said I actually have an annoucement I need to make. He moved closer to the chick and she handed him a microphone and then he looked at me.
I was already getting like SUPER nervous and looking around at the at LEAST 100 people in that room... I knew TONS of them.. I was so confused by now and started to actually tremble because I dont like being in front of large crowds of people very much.. so I had NOOO idea what he was doing.. cause NEITHER of us like crowds...
Then I see our friend Lindsey come over and I get even more confused and worried...Im like freaking out inside my head thinking of like bad possibilities at first..then he starts talking.. Saying how we have been together four years and how he loves me very much...annnd.. how he thinks its TIME to propose! Everyone let out a gasp around us as he got down on one knee in front of me with that little damn ring box in his hand HANDED to him By and he popped open that ring box and asked me to marry him!
I was freaking trembling like a new born kitten at this point! I was trembling and stuttering and blushing and eyes were freaking huge and I couldnt stop smiling and just GAH! I said yes like 5 times and went and hugged and kissed him before he even put the ring on! XD
I hear people start screaming and cheering and yelling out congratulations and shit and then he puts the ring on my finger and I cant stop shaking I keep loving on him constantly! I look up and see people giving us a STANDING applause! >///<
It was sooo precious to see Mason trembling like crazy like tears in his eyes with that damn ring! Soo beautiful.. Oh my god im like crying as I type this.. >///< *faints* I seriously felt like I was gonna faint! XD I started c4rying to btw lol
So anyways after he proposed and the cheering cooled off the announcer chick says that wasnt planned and it was compleetly real and congratulated us and then continued while we went up to get cake and ice cream and my friends hugged me and congratulated me! Best day of my life!
Through the rest of the day we STILL had cheers and claps and congrats just RANDOMLY! I had random people just come up and hug me and ask to see my ring for teh rest of the con! XD By the time we got back Sunday almost EVERYONE at con knew! As well as some people that DIDNT go to the convention! *dies* lol

No matter what kind of home PC you own, if you are surfing the net you will at one point or another install an antivirus (AV) program to help keep you safe and secure from spyware, malware, and virus infection.
You might have been quick to pull out your credit card and purchase one of these programs based on a recommendation or a pre-installation that has come with your computer. What you didn't know is you were probably wasting your money.
What are the top AV programs for Windows?
According to PC Mag the top AV programs are listed below.
- Kaspersky
- Webroot
- Norton
- Bitdefender
- Mcaffee
Why you should not waste your money on AV.
Contrary to what your computer geek tells you about which AV to use, you might be interested to learn the top tech's choice has always been a free program. Currently a program called AVAST is the most effective FREE AV program there is on the market. A few years back AVG was the top free AV until they sold out to advertisers and started adding bloat wear.
Unfortunately today, AVG falls into the same categories as its competitors because of one or more of the following reasons:
- Slows your computer down
- Can accidentally prevent you from accessing the internet
- Actually promotes spyware
- Installs bloat wear
- Almost impossible to uninstall
No matter what you hear or read regarding effectiveness of a particular AV, there is no AV program on the planet that can save you from everything, including yourself. New virus and malware programs are written every day, and even updated or modified as removal and prevention programs define their code in order to stop them.
There's very little protection against when a user presses a button like: accept, run, install, ok, etc, and gives the malicious program permission to install or take control. Paying for AV doesn't give you better protection from user error.
Common misconceptions of AV:
- AV make my computer bullet proof
- More is better
- AV makes my computer faster
- Once infected AV can remove it
- Higher price means more protection
- Paid is better than free
If you call 5 computer repair companies in West Palm Beach and ask them which AV program you should use, they will most likely tell you which ever one they are a distributor for. They will charge you to install it.
Beware: Some computer companies have also been known to charge their clients for an AV that is free like AVG or AVAST.
How to get the best free AV on the market.
Instead of wasting your money on AV, call a reputable computer tech in your area and ask them what the current "tech's choice" for FREE AV is. Currently in 2014, AVAST is the top contender for free protection against computer infections. Registering the free version with your name and email will get you great protection for a full year. Enjoy!

CH Reynolds
Woman-owned CH Reynolds Nears 30th Anniversary With Second Generation of Family Leadership
Women owning construction companies was a rarity in 1996 when Shelly Paiva got her first job at CH Reynolds. They were more likely found answering phones and working in the front office. That's just where Paiva began, but she had her sights on management and ownership. It was, after all, in her DNA. Her father, Charles H. Reynolds, had founded the Silicon Valley-based electrical construction company in 1983.
Rolling up her sleeves, Paiva immersed herself in
every aspect of the business for the next 16 years, gaining real-world experience in almost every department, from delivering materials to job sites and handling HR and purchasing duties, to serving as CFO. "I couldn't have had a better teacher. My dad not only taught me the technical aspects, but also modeled what it took to earn the respect of clients, vendors and employees," she says.
Paiva eventually assumed the day-to-day management role of CH Reynolds and became its majority shareholder by 2012. More importantly, she crafted her own reputation as an experienced professional and carefully safeguarded the long-term relationships her father built.
CH Reynolds' growth closely mirrors that of Paiva's. Founded primarily as an electrical contracting business, the company expanded competencies to become a premier provider of design, integration, and implementation of electrical construction services as well as networking and telecommunication services and customized maintenance service solutions. A certified green business, CH Reynolds also provides "Power Management Solutions" for building infrastructure, and data centers.
Recently the company added managed services options. "We have become a single resource for clients, from design/build of an IT center, to installation, to running the center with our own certified engineers," says Paiva. "For example, we installed LVC infrastructure for Cisco Systems' new Development Data Center. Then our Managed Services Division contracted with Cisco to provide all Layer1 support, which included installation of Network gear."
Despite the economic crisis that began in 2008, CH Reynolds more than tripled its sales revenue over the last 10 years, opened operations in Texas and North Carolina, and broke its historic sales record in 2011. It has been named one of the Fastest Growing Privately Held Companies in Silicon Valley for three consecutive years.
"Our phenomenal team has become the go-to group for data centers, corporate campuses, biotech facilities, institutions and retail sites with large-scale projects that must be completed rapidly and flawlessly," says Paiva. "Whether clients are in the pre-construction stages of a major new project that might take years to complete, or in the middle of an emergency in which every hour of downtime can lead to millions of dollars of loss, we consistently deliver the best solutions and greatest cost efficiencies."

Sept. 21, 2001
By JOHN NADEL
AP Sports Writer
PASADENA, Calif. - Quarterbacks Cory Paus and Steve Bellisari will always remember the UCLA-Ohio State game played on Sept. 11, 1999, in Columbus, just as they'll never forget what occurred exactly two years later.
For UCLA's Paus, it was a debut, and for Ohio State's Bellisari, a coming-out.
Unlike two years ago, Paus and Bellisari will be in the starting lineup when the 14th-ranked Bruins and 21st-ranked Buckeyes meet again - this time at the Rose Bowl.
The game, Saturday's only matchup of Top 25 teams, will be the first for both schools since the terrorist attacks.
"It's been awkward and kind of unreal, just to think about what's going on in the world," Paus said. "Football doesn't seem like it's as important as it was two weeks ago."
A redshirt freshman when the teams met in 1999, Paus played his first game at UCLA and was 8-of-20 for 97 yards in a 42-20 loss to the Buckeyes.
The Bruins played without 10 players - many of them starters - who were suspended following a handicapped parking scandal. Several of those will be playing Saturday.
Then a sophomore, Bellisari also came off the bench that day, but with much more success, passing for 159 yards and two touchdowns and running for another 50 yards in his first extensive action at Ohio State.
He has started every Buckeyes game since.
"That was kind of his breakout game," UCLA coach Bob Toledo recalled. "The thing about him is he can throw the ball, and he's very mobile, too."
Toledo said he doesn't believe that game will be a motivating factor for his players.
"I think Ohio State coming to the Rose Bowl is motivation enough," he said.
UCLA spokesman Marc Dellins urged fans to arrive well before kickoff since everyone is subject to search - part of increased security at every major stadium in the country.
Coolers and backpacks won't be allowed, and even the media is involved, with UCLA requiring names and credential numbers of everyone covering the game.
A crowd of more than 75,000 was expected, but that was before the attacks. Officials now believe it might be a little smaller, especially considering the game will be televised nationally by ABC-TV.
"I think it will be emotional, especially during the national anthem," Toledo said. "When we kick it off, I think you'll see some good football."
Ohio State's only game under first-year coach Jim Tressel was a 28-14 victory over visiting Akron two weeks ago.
"This is a tremendous opportunity for us to go and see how we've come along," Tressel said.
UCLA (2-0) will be playing its home opener, having beaten Alabama 20-17 and Kansas 41-17 on the road. The Bruins are favored by a touchdown.
"They're big, they're strong, they're physical," Toledo said of the Buckeyes. "They pound you. We want to find out how physical we really are."
Considering the Buckeyes have a 265-pound tight end (Darnell Sanders), a 255-pound fullback (Jamar Martin), a 230-pound tailback (Jonathan Wells), and four starting offensive linemen listed at 300 pounds or heavier, Toledo should get his wish.
Defensively, the Bruins will be challenged by Bellisari, who passed for 246 yards against Akron, and a running game led by Wells, who gained 119 yards in the opener.
UCLA's DeShaun Foster ranks fourth in the country in rushing, averaging 149.5 yards. But the Ohio State defense, led by tackle Mike Collins, linebackers Joe Cooper and Matt Wilhelm, and safety Mike Doss, figures to present a stiffer challenge than Alabama or Kansas.
Paus, who has completed 18 of 38 passes for 283 yards, believes the Buckeyes will force the Bruins to pass.
Tressel put the onus on Paus, saying: "Their ability to win the Pac-10 championship, I think, is going to be based on how they come along at the quarterback position."

Downing House Museum Complex
Built in 1858 - National Register of Historic Places 1979
South Main Street Memphis, Missouri - Phone: 660-465-2275
Complex: Downing House Museum, Boyer House, Memphis Train Depot & Pheasant Aircraft Co.
Downing House
Downing House Museum
This stately 14 room brick museum, designed by Thomas Broadwater of Virginia, denotes a Greek Revival Style, with its three story tower it conveys a strong Italianate character. The Downing Family was from Virginia and were wealthy. William G. Downing married Mary Jones, daughter of the first sheriff of Scotland County. After the marriage William G. went back to Virginia and returned with 12 slaves, 10 men and 2 women and prepared to build the home. There were 14 original rooms in the house with 8 fireplaces, 6 porches, and 15 doors to the outside. The slaves built a kiln and burnt brick for the house which took 2 years to complete. William and Mary Downing were the parents of 10 children and also raised 2 orphaned nieces in their home. During the Civil War Union Soldiers used the Downing House as Headquarters, and rode their horses in through the 10 foot doors. Prisoners were also kept in the house. On September 1, 1978, the Scotland County Historical Society purchased the property and have been restoring and renovating the house to its original condition. Period furnishings have been donated to outfit many of the rooms. One of the most interesting exhibits at the Downing House is the life size model of Ella Ewing, the
Missouri Giantess
. Ella, born in 1872 in Scotland County, died at age 40 in 1913. She was 8 feet 4 inches tall and weighed 277 pounds and in her youth was an attraction in the P.T. Barnum Circus. Several other memorial rooms are devoted to Scotland Countys history, including a vintage barber shop, Civil War relics, early aviation history, and other interesting glimpses into the past.

Social Impact of Martin Luther II
Program InformationSeries: A Moment in Time
Duration: 00:03:57
Year Produced: 2010
In 1525, the peasants of Germany took Martin Luther's teachings on spiritual equality to their logical conclusion and rebelled against their betters. He was not amused.
A Moment in Time is a brief, exciting and compelling journey into the past. Created to excite and enlighten the public about the past, its relevance to the present and its impact on the future, A Moment In Time is a captivating historical narrative that is currently broadcast worldwide.For more information visit: http://amomentintime.com
Lead: In 1525 the peasants of Germany took Martin Luther's teachings on spiritual equality to their logical conclusion and rebelled against their betters. He was not amused.
Intro: A Moment In Time with Dan Roberts
Content: Because the Roman Catholic Church was so closely allied with the social and political status quo, Luther's critique, which he considered primarily spiritual and theological, took on a life of its own. Soon people began taking his words and applying to them a meaning he did not intend--or more probably in his early political naiveté, did not anticipate. Once uttered, however, words have power and it is not always easy to govern how they will be used.
Since the medieval period, the peasants of Europe had periodically rebelled against the economic and social conditions that condemned them to a life of bitter destitution. The early 1500s noted a marked deterioration of peasant circumstances in Germany; crop failures in 1523-24 made matters even worse.
Martin Luther's struggle against church authorities was popular among leaders anxious to diminish the power of the church, but especially in the countryside his teachings struck a responsive chord. When his tract "On Christian Liberty" (1520) was read aloud to a peasant population already on the edge of revolution, the results were predictable. The words, "A Christian man is the most free lord of all and subject to none," became a powerful rallying cry. At first Luther supported the peasants' aspirations, but when armed and bloody revolt swept across Germany, the reformer drew back in horror at the whirlwind he had helped unleash.
Next time: Poisonous, Hurtful, Devilish Rebels.
The producer of A Moment In Time is Steve Clark. At the University of Richmond, this is Dan Roberts.

I just posted an ad for the Indian Rickshaws I have on the for sale board but to let you all know, they are discounted to $650 each from $895, I have Blue, Black and Red ones still. In the crate, you have to pick up and assemble but they are cool and would make good Playa transport. I'm in Alameda should anyone be interested. 510-769-0980 www.hiwheel.com

Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Fri, July 15, 2005 - 6:22 PMOk, 2 down, 5 left!
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Fri, July 15, 2005 - 9:05 PMAlmost 3 down! I have your rickshaw pic saved on my desktop so I can drool over it while I pretend to work.
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Wed, July 20, 2005 - 6:25 PMOk, so what are you going to do to it once you get it Denise, got plans yet? I pretend to work when I'm replying to tribe posts. Thanks again for the purchase.
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Wed, July 20, 2005 - 8:17 PMHi Greg...I have big plans. First, I will assemble it and see how it all works, and take a TON of pics for my eager bikie friends. Then I will light it up. Cool Neon wire, LED headlights, and a couple of tail blinkies are in order.
I will sew a new custom fabric seat cover for the lucky passengers so that they don't stick to the seat. I haven't yet decided what to call it, and I know that something that cool has to be named.
Then, it will go to Burning Man. When I return, I will ride it around and use it to develop my strength and endurance while I grocery shop!
I can't tell you how excited I am to see, touch, and ride the rickshaw!
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Sat, July 16, 2005 - 7:00 AMThey're very nice and it's cool that 1) you're local and people could check out the goods 2) good workmanship! do you build everything yourself? I would love to have your input next year to help us make better rickshaws for the BRC Rickshaw Fleet :)
Also, if someone wanted to make a 4-wheeler bike thing out of 4 giant hiwheel wheels (this would be me) how much would that cost?
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Wed, July 20, 2005 - 6:23 PMI put in my 2 cents a couple times on pedicab/rickshaws but I don't think it caught anyones attention.
I build our pedicabs and the Rickshaws I import from India. The amount of work they do there and the coolness factor can't be touched here for 3 or 4 times the price.
I build all the antique high wheel stuff here, from spokes and hubs to rims and frames. It isn't like I can call up shimano and have them run me of a bunch of parts. They would laugh at the number of bikes I actually make in a year. Right now we're making a Double Eagle for a theatre group in Houston and when the show "Wicked" runs in the City, anyone going will see at least a couple pieces of our work. I'm also trying to put and old Quadricycle we have back together to take to BM.
Sure, folks can come check us out pretty much anytime, I don't have what can be called a retail storefront with a big display of bikes in it but I do have the back room and the rotation of things that come and go. If someone wants to come see it's best they call first since lunch time varies with workload and sometimes I play hooky too.
As far as the BRC rickshaw fleet, I'm always happy to answer questions or supply parts if necessary.
A 4 wheeler thing out of 4 giant wheels... Depends on the parts you use and the size of the wheels and just how much work I have to do myself.
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Fri, July 22, 2005 - 12:22 AMEver thought about a large di-wheel - two chairs slung between two large wheels?
Manual clutches to connect drive to either or both wheels... no falling off while DUI...
About does one of those big wheels run?

Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Fri, July 22, 2005 - 8:51 AMexactly....
i would also be interestd (for next year). coker was making a cruiser bike with 36" wheels - can you get those wheels for us too?
i wish we could change this subject line - it's very retail and there is already a listing that greg did too... but let's hope you get those bikes sold :)
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Fri, July 29, 2005 - 7:07 PMHi Jay,
Sorry it sounds retail but it is what I do for a living and I am proud of my work... I build cool old custom stuff and I do like eating and I kinda thought this was a forum for custom builders. Besides, I totally knocked the price of the Rickshaws way, way down and that sure as hell isn't retail!
Um, I know the guys at Coker, David and Corky, and while I have never handled their bikes I did have the ajoining booth to them at Interbike for about 6 years so I can probably get you their wheels if I give a call. I have no idea what they would cost though and I don't know what availability is but I'm willing to call if you want. Call me 510-769-0980
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Fri, July 29, 2005 - 10:18 PMGreg, absolutely no worries - it's just the SALE in caps that's kinda funny in a forum...
you are doing this very cool thing with bikes so no worries! thanks for hooking up the Burners! we're proud of you too...
and yes, let's talk about those gigantic Coker wheels sometime :)
Mad props to you for going so far as to sell your car to make a dream come true (I know the feeling and did my rickshaw last year on a budget of about $300).
*Thanks* to both of you! This is going to be a great year :)
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Fri, July 29, 2005 - 6:57 PMHi Bart,
Depending on the wheel size it could be anywhere from around $400 to $800 per wheel. If you have questions or want to come for alook then let me know. I make the whole thing here, spokes, rims, hubs and tires... oh joy.
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Fri, July 29, 2005 - 9:56 PMI love my rickshaw. I just finished fine tuning it and rode it across town today. It was very fun, and the Indians are very logical with how they package their unassembled bikes. All hardware was where it needed to be, just hand tight so I could remove it and assemble it easily. I am so glad I got one. PS I sold my car to buy the rickshaw!
see you guys out there!
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Fri, July 29, 2005 - 11:54 PMThanks Greg... given the amount of work in one, that's not suprising.
Lots of spokes...
See you on the playa... I'll be piloting a "robot" drawn rickshaw (powered, I'm
afraid). Scratch built for BM...
- Bart
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Sat, July 30, 2005 - 9:41 AMBart,
I think I saw pictures somewhere of your robot 'shaw. maybe just a sketch...but it looks great. I hope you are able to get it going, what a piece of engineering skill! What a guy!
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Tue, August 2, 2005 - 7:33 PMCool Bart! Bring it by the camp if you are around and show it off. I'll be with KaPilina doin it Hawaiian style. You come too Denizia! I think the ady is 4:30 and Echo but I ain't totally sure about that yet.
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Tue, August 2, 2005 - 8:11 PM4:30 and Ego... Duh-oooo
Re: Trike Rickshaws on SALE!Tue, August 2, 2005 - 8:29 PMBart, Kevin Walsh (from whom I bought the rickshaw seat we are now using for the BRC Rickshaw Fleet) also built a set of robot legs for a rickshaw - there's a pic of it in this tribe :)
Please pics of your work - we would love to see it!

SPOKANE — The Spokane County medical examiner's office says a man who died in the custody of sheriff's deputies in June died of oxygen deprivation to the brain.
The office ruled the death of 34-year-old Will Berger a homicide.
The Spokesman-Review reports two deputies shocked Berger with a Taser and wrestled him to the ground in a choke hold after he became agitated at a gym and ran into traffic.
The case remains under investigation by the Washington State Patrol.

Last review I said you pass internet. This time I say you win! Congrats. The graphics were by far better. The Sound was better, still a little glitchy. I did though give you a 7 in style because Claymation isn't original, even though your the master of it. It being NGs and SDM, the Violence was an obvious 10, Also very funny. But what else can you expect from Fabulos and Knox. The only thing you can do to help this one, is to work on sound. Or maybe make a game.

Newberg On TV:
Black Cloud Over Atheist
James Beacham
To: "Positive Atheism" <email@example.com>
Subject: Fox 6 News and Newberg
Date: Monday, May 07, 2001 6:58 PM
Fox 6 News, here in San Diego, blew it.
Well, maybe not outright blew it, but they certainly did their part last night to fuel the fires of enmity between the religious and the non-religious.
Last night, they did a piece called "Wired to Believe?" about Andrew Newberg and his Why God Won't Go Away findings. I normally avoid network news like the plague (especially Fox), but the title intrigued me enough to tune in. I thought that they very well might have put together a fair report on how Newberg's results indicate a purely natural explanation for those feelings the religious hastily categorize as supernatural.
Alas, that wasn't the case. Instead, they presented a born again Christian who gave the stock "I was into drink and drugs and then god saved me" story, claiming that the "power of prayer" had made him recover a lot faster than his physicians had expected. Then they said that Newberg's findings "may provide scientific evidence" for why things like this happen.
At that point, I slumped in my chair and sighed.
Every time they showed a clip from their interview with Newberg, they bordered the shot with a white mist. Whenever they ran part of their outdoor, obviously impromptu interview with the head of the San Diego Atheist Association (or something like that), they bordered the shot in a black mist. I kid you not. It was textbook sensationalism. Robert Anton Wilson once said something to the effect that, "There is nothing we satirists can come up with that won't be outdone by the real thing."
The biggest problem was this forced dichotomy between religious and a-religious. They said that "non-believers say it's all a product of brainwashing," and then show the SD Atheist guy saying something like, "I don't know if these [Newberg's] findings have been up for scientific scrutiny or what," and point out how indoctrination plays the biggest part in belief in a god or gods. I really felt for the atheist, because it seemed like they'd just shown up at his house in the middle of the day, told him about Newberg, told him their version of Newberg's findings and the implications they drew from them, and asked him to comment. It seemed clear that the guy had never read Newberg's stuff himself, but was simply reacting to what Fox told him. Under these conditions (and under the mouse of the Avid in the Fox editing room), he comes off as coarse and unreasonable. Fox seemed to be trying to say that "science is now on God's side" without ever coming out and saying it.
My conclusions about Newberg's data seem to be closer to your own. I don't think he's demonstrated "where god lives" in your brain, he's simply shown how the thing many humans tend to describe as a "deep religious experience" is really just another brain function, explainable and natural. The great thing about religious fundamentalism, though, is that any piece of evidence whatsoever can be used as proof that one's god exists. So, instead of seeing Newberg's report for what it is, one can say, "Wow, this proves that God put a special place in our brain just for worshipping Him; atheists must just be genetic mutants lacking this place." (Similarly, I was reading a creationist online the other day who claimed that the recent completion of the mapping of the human genome, "should, but probably won't, be the end of Darwinism.")
To top it all off, they mentioned that Newberg's studies also demonstrate the health benefits of faith and belief. As far as I can tell, 1) Newberg didn't do anything like this, but only mentions studies like this in the last couple chapters of his book, and 2) they've been discredited (as Courcey points out).
I don't know why I expected integrity from a Fox affiliate, and, in retrospect, I guess I didn't. But it would have been nice to have had a fair assessment of Newberg's book, rather than sensationalistic dichotomizing.

Subject: Re: Fox 6 News and Newberg
Date: Tuesday, May 08, 2001 5:56 PM
They also could have known who would be the most reactionary atheistic spokesperson in town. If the press is looking for a dichotomy, they'll find it. It's much easier to put this into a 90-second bit than it is to squeeze a reasoned discussion into the same time frame. It took eleven pages in Positive Atheism's April issue just to scratch the surface of both the implications of Newberg's findings and also of the somewhat slipshod conclusions to which he comes.
Television news clips are not the way come to reasoned conclusions such as those which we offer in the April edition: Newberg's findings are important not only for the skeptics' peace of mind but also for the dignity of the theist; Newberg's conclusions are based upon a biased presentation of not only the facts but also the way humans have examined and described reality for over two-and-a-half millennia. This is one of several reasons why I have never owned a television set my entire adult life. I have one now, but (a) it is not mine, and (b) it is not hooked up to an antenna; rather, it is connected to the karaoke machine.

15 OctMon / 2012George Romney was born in 1734 in Dalton-in-Furness, a small town near the scenic Lake District in the northwestern part of England. He was one of 11 children born to Anne Romney and her furniture-maker husband, John. At the age of 10, George was removed from school to apprentice to his father. Although he would later teach himself the history, drama, poetry, and classical literature considered necessary as artistic sources, his technical training as...

Whether treating a toddler in an emergency or supporting a teen through chemotherapy treatments, we are dedicated to the care of each patient. It's through teamwork at every level of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and with you, the family, that we are able to achieve excellence in pediatric care.
See more about us
With a proven track record of providing world-class care to patients in more than 30 pediatric specialties, we are a model for other pediatric hospitals. Infants, teens and young adults belong in a children's hospital where they can get specialized treatment from caregivers who know the important differences between children and adults.
See our clinical services
Research is a cornerstone of the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta mission to enhance the lives of children. In conjunction with Emory University School of Medicine, Georgia Tech and Morehouse, Children's seeks answers to the most challenging childhood medical conditions through teaching and research.
We all want happy, healthy kids. But as a busy parent, helping your kids eat well and stay active can be a challenge.
At Strong4Life, created by Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, our doctors, nutritionists and wellness experts create fun, easy ways to help your kids eat, move and live healthier. From picky eaters to passionate gamers, we have a slew of simple tips by experts who understand, because we're parents, too.
As a not-for-profit organization, Children's Healthcare of Atlanta relies on the generous financial and volunteer support of our community. Your donations directly impact the lives of each family served by Children's and support many initiatives such as clinical excellence, research, teaching, wellness and charity care.
The Children's Rehabilitation Services are led by Joshua Vova, M.D., Medical Director. Meet the team.
"He thrives on competition," said his mother, Brooke Hornbeck. "His goal is to either play professional football or professional baseball, someway or somehow."
With the hard work Boomer has done at Children's, he is getting closer to those goals.
Brooke gave birth to Boomer (whose birth name is Peter) at 28 weeks because she was suffering from preeclampsia, a disease in pregnant women that can cause high blood pressure.
After about a year and a half, Brooke noticed that Boomer had not met key developmental milestones. A neurologist in Florida, where the family lived at the time, diagnosed Boomer with schizencephaly, a developmental birth defect, and cerebral palsy.
Spasticity in his legs made him unable to walk without the help of a walker. He was also unable to use his left arm, which was turned away from his body with the hand in a fist.
Boomer and Brooke moved to Locust Grove, Ga., when he was 4 years old. Brooke went to Timothy Oswald, M.D., a pediatric orthopaedic surgeon at our Egleston hospital, to see how he could help her son. She was only expecting Dr. Oswald to help Boomer manage his condition as he got older.
"I had no idea Dr. Oswald would say that we were going to make it so his life was different, so he could be independent," she said.
Dr. Oswald brought Boomer in for tendon-lengthening surgery in 2009, extending his hamstrings and hip abductors to help with the spasticity in his legs.
The surgeon and patient bonded over an appreciation for University of Florida football. When Boomer's grandfather arranged for him to meet former Florida coach Urban Meyer, Dr. Oswald said he wanted Boomer to be able to walk a few steps to introduce himself.
"He pushed Boomer so hard, but it is unbelievable the progress he has made because of Dr. Oswald and Children's," Brooke said.
Boomer continued to receive botox injections with Dr. Oswald to help with the spasticity. In January, Boomer had another surgery to correct the angle of one of his feet and to help him start to use his left arm. Dr. Oswald brought in Justin R. Kunes, M.D., also a pediatric orthopaedic surgeon at Egleston, to assist with the surgery on Boomer's left arm
Between each procedure, Boomer received physical and occupational therapy at our Children's at Fayette location. His therapists, Kelly Peczka and Jamie Shumock, set several goals for him.
But Boomer had one goal he set for himself—to be out of a wheelchair before he started the sixth grade.
Boomer's therapists worked on building his range of motion, strengthening his legs and core and learning how to walk correctly. They also taught him how to use his left arm.
"I'm constantly amazed at how they go above and beyond," Brooke said. "It is like all of these doctors and therapists are here just for Boomer. That is how it feels."
Boomer's hard work, combined with his successful surgeries and effective physical therapy, helped him walk into his first sixth-grade class in August.
"Children's has been life-changing for him," Brooke said. "It has provided him with a life I don't think he would have had."

San Jose del Cabo, Mexico has a bit of a split personality. Some think of the seaside paradise and sister city Cabo San Lucas as a place to party, an image that's been enhanced by folks like rock star Sammy Hagar, who loves the area so much he wrote the raucous song "Cabo Wabo" about the place. To others Cabo is a place to kick back and relax and enjoy the water, the weather and the laid back pace of Mexico. Of course there's no reason that you can't enjoy action and relaxin' both over the course of a visit to Cabo, but when it's time for peace and quiet and pampering the place to be is the Cabo Azul Resort.
Cabo Azul Resort is an all-villa property where 1, 2 and 3-bedroom villas are nestled on 12 oceanfront acres, and where the views inside, with polished natural stone floors and modern interior decoration in each villa, are as stunning as the azure bay that lies just outside. And while every villa has all the amenities you'll need to stay in touch with the folks back home, each is thoughtfully designed to "take the edge off," and in high style.
To take your stay at Cabo Azul Resort to the ultimate in relaxation, visit the property's Paz Spa. The full menu of treatments includes options like a "healing quartz" facial and most popularly, a private cabana outdoor massage where the Sea of Cortez surf rolls to shore nearby. Thai and deep tissue massages are also available, as are reflexology sessions. Cabo Azul also has a well-appointed fitness area if you need to burn off a little energy spinning or perhaps gain a little energy during a yoga session.
It's funny how relaxing can cause you to work up an appetite; fortunately Cabo Azul Resort has the cure in the form of Javier's Restaurant, a 5-star eatery serving home style but upscale Mexican food as imagined by Javier Sosa of the Javier's Restaurants in Laguna Beach and Irvine, California. And while Sosa has whipped up a phenomenal menu, designer Dodd Mitchell has turned the restaurant into a feast for the eyes as well (Mitchell also created the unique atmospheres in the villas.)
Cabo Azul Resort is located in the Los Cabos entertainment and shopping corridor so if you want to blast some Sammy Hagar and hit some cantinas, you're only minutes away. The resort is about 12-miles from the airport. Go here to book a stay and for more information.

Picture Of A Guy Cutting Himself Out Of A Shark
This is a picture of an Australian fisherman cutting himself out of a shark. It didn't actually eat him though, he just caught the shark, gutted it, then climbed inside to have the picture taken. That's pretty sick. Now listen: I hate sharks as much as the next guy who agrees they ruin the ocean, but I still don't think we should be gutting them and crawling inside just to take funny pictures. Sharks deserve more respect than that. *steps off soapbox right into a pile of dog shit*
Thanks to Angry Ant, joseph and PYY, who agree that could definitely win a Halloween costume contest.

La posada in Boquete is great tonight.
Not a gringo in site.
The music is hot the pizza too,
The question is where are you
So much for childish verse,
the question is more terse
We have so much that people say they want, yet few take advantage. It is sad and perhaps it why so many venues fail so fast.

The Hospital of Saint Mary of Bethlehem stood just outside Bishopsgate in London, and served as asylum for the mentally ill. Mental health care in Elizabethan England was frequently cruel and, by modern standards, unusual. Conditions within the hospital were said to be extraordinarily noisy and chaotic.
The hospital was commonly known simply as "Bedlam," and the name has survived to the present day as a description of any scene of chaos and disorder.
The hospital itself no longer exists. The site on which it stood is now part of London's Liverpool Street Station.

Lake Forest students rase $4,000 in jogathon
LAKE FOREST – Students of Abiding Savior Lutheran School helped raise nearly $4,000 for school athletic programs in a recent Jog-a-thon.
As they raced around the gym in laps, students from kindergarten to eighth grade cheered each other on and gave each other high fives as they completed their jogs.
Money raised from the event will fund new athletic uniforms, gym refurbishments and sports equipment, said Admissions Director Paula Carroll.

How-to New Toilet Section - Bathroom Remodel
From Engineering on February 01, 2007 in Bathroom Remodel
Overview Styles and Types Materials They all work the same way so pick one that pleases your eye and your bottom. An average toilet bowl will start around $200, but a royal throne could run you around $1000. Styles and Types One-piece or two-piece Most toilets have separate tanks and bowls, making them two-piece, but some higher-priced toilets are one-piece, and they are generally more stylish. One-piece toilets tend to be quieter and don?t leak between the bowl and tank. Round bowl or elongated bowl Round bowls used to be most common because it conserved space, but now as bathrooms continue to grow in size, the trend is towards elongated bowls (two inches longer than a round bowl). The standard height of a toilet is 15 inches. Gravity or Pressure The magic of the flush. Standard gravity-fed toilets use the weight of the water to force everything from the tank into the bowl and through the S-shaped trapway, where a siphoning action finishes the flush. Pressure-assisted toilets hit the market in the early 90s when the government passed a law that restricted toilets to no more than 1.6 gallons per flush, as opposed to the old 3.5 gallons. These systems use trapped air to initiate the flushing mechanism. Concealed Tank Concealed toilet tanks are insulated and installed between the wall studs with the toilet mounted to the wall instead of the floor, making it easier to clean your toilet. Materials Toilets are generally made of vitreous china, which is clay fired at high temperature to form a high gloss, stain-resistant surface. They are durable but can be chipped, cracked, or broken if abused. Under normal use, however, they can last a lifetime. Return to top

We were honored to receive the Citizens Bank New Hampshire and WMUR-TV 2012 Champion in Action® award for Neighborhood Development. It recognizes our effectiveness in finding new uses for historic properties, stimulating local investment, creating jobs, bringing people together and inspiring ongoing community development activities and provides support and outreach opportunities. Our recently updated strategic plan reminds us that we have many opportunities ahead. Requests for assistance continue to grow with individuals and groups seeking help with the impacts of large and small-scale development proposals on historic places, stewardship solutions for owners of long-held properties, effective weatherization strategies and many other issues.
Our 2013-15 plan builds on our solid base of existing programs, credibility and sound management over time and sets goals of increasing investment in landmarks, downtown and historic landscapes by enhancing our resources, improving preservation policies, and expanding our membership base 30% by 2015. Your renewed your support and on-going suggestions are important to us as we face these new preservation challenges together. We pledge to continue to be responsive to the preservation needs of this state, to invest in people and communities, and to build strong and effective partnerships that help preserve and protect New Hampshire's special places for the future.

Need for Speed: The Run Review
publisher: EA
developer: Black Box
genre: Racing
|ESRB rating: T
release date: Nov 15, 11
|» All About Need for Speed: The Run on ActionTrip
Uros "Vader" Pavlovic
Sometimes I'm having trouble remembering all the games that EA added to their ever-popular racing franchise, Need for Speed (NFS). After NFS: Most Wanted, probably one of the best in the series, EA made several attempts to take a new direction, albeit their efforts were met with little approval, especially from hardcore fans. Eventually, after a few disappointing games, EA decide to return to the game's roots, offering a tribute to the traditional cop-chases and similar elements. Need for Speed: The Run, EA's latest addition to the racing series, assumes a more cinematic form.
The Run begins by introducing players to a rough and tough character named Jackson "Jack" Rourke (Wow, he sounds really tough!). Now, Jack got into a pretty hairy situation with a powerful crime organization that seeks to take him out. With no choice but to flee, he joins a 3000 mile long illegal street race called The Run, which stretches across the United States. The massive event starts in San Francisco and goes all the way to New York City. In addition to overtaking 200 drivers, Jack must also do his best to avoid the cops, as well as the deadly mob thugs who are determined to bump him off Oh and the thugs all drive Porsche Cayennes.
Just love racing through fire.
You'll never take me alive, coppers!
Reading this might give you the impression that EA created a perfect setting for an exciting single-player racer. Yes, that's the initial impression we got too. However, as we progressed through the story mode, we began to realize that very little effort went into the plot. The absence of deeper characterization is obvious throughout the entire game. Dialogue is boring and sparse, while the clich'd and almost mind-numbingly stereotypical female characters won't hold your interest. The voiceovers are solid, although that makes little difference when there's virtually no story at all. What a waste too. If the developers wanted to give us a cinematic experience and a character-driven plot, then we should be given more substance here. Sadly, NFS: The Run is severely lacking in that area.
Still, any Need for Speed racing game ought to be about cars and racing events right? Well, you'll get a decent selection of cars here and a lot of stages to go through. By the way, the game consists of 10 stages, each divided into several events that involve the main character overtaking a specific number of drivers or simply speed-racing to make up for lost time (racing from checkpoint to checkpoint within a time limit). Mind you, there is a rather annoying catch. Players can choose their vehicles at the beginning of each stage. These vehicles, however, may not be switched until you reach the next stage, so you'd better choose wisely. Of course, there is a way to change cars during a race. All you need to do is find a gas station, which, serve as sort of a pit stop in this game. Even then you are limited to a specific set of cars that are tied to each stage. Another thing that sort of doesn't go along with the tradition of most Need for Speed games is the lack of vehicle customization. With the developer's aim to put emphasis on the story, they simply decided to do away with vehicle customization. Hm, a truly bad move for a game that has absolutely no story at all and little else to entangle the player.
The gameplay is quite fast-paced and at times challenging. The trouble is there are a lot of restrictions during races, so much so that, quite frankly, it drove us mad. Each track is has checkpoints. The idea is to give players the ability to correct any mistakes they make on the track. For instance, if you manage to outtake an opponent and then accidentally smash your car into a tree or lamppost, the game automatically resets your car to the last checkpoint. This sounds like a cool option to have (being able to rewind and fix you've made on the track), but you can't choose when to do this yourself, and it really doesn't work well most of the time. Races are usually extremely fast and frantic, so when the real fun begins you may overtake several drivers at once by pulling off astonishing maneuvers on the track. However, since the game restricts your movement, you may inadvertently steer your car off the road. When that occurs, the game resets, once again, and brings you back to a previous checkpoint, even if you've strayed from the road a tiny bit. So, basically, players frequently get punished for making even the smallest mistakes. This is perhaps one of the game's biggest issues.
Frustration continues with the somewhat unresponsive controls, regardless of whether you're playing on the keyboard or with a gamepad (although a gamepad is highly recommended). This is not always the case, but it happens fairly often throughout the game.
Okay, there is one thing that The Run does well and that's creating an adrenaline-pumped racing atmosphere. Driving through great-looking areas and overtaking other racers at top speed can be immensely fun. At times we even found the AI challenging, particularly when you struggle to outperform your opponents by taking shortcuts, which they'll often use themselves. Still, we were quickly disappointed in this department as well. Other cars on the track easily make stupid mistakes or simply give in too quickly.
5.7 Okay
Looks great, awesome soundtrack, racing is sometimes challenging, multiplayer can be fun;
Generally restrictive, too linear, the story is... well... missing, the whole thing ends too fast, AI can be dim, very frustrating reset system during races.

Magazine of the painting blogosphere.
Brent Hallard interviews painter Guido Nieuwendijk about his work and process.
Nieuwendijk comments: "With the wall paintings my curiousness is triggered with flatness: I only paint the walls and the image is super flat, but the surroundings do something with that to make it all real space. And, as such, the viewer navigates the space not only with flatness in mind but also becomes very conscious of the volume of space that the wall paintings inhabit. The panels work differently. They draw the viewer in to their little universe. Both the wall work and panel work have the same graphic imagery, but because of scale and a different sense of 'objectness' the graphic quality shifts considerably. The panels have all the tools to suck up a viewer. The paint is very matt, not shiny and reflecting, but absorbing. They also, as you said, are wrapped in color. And in that sense edge towards being an object, but are, and still stay in the realm of paintings, not sculpture."
Sam Cornish interviews Lothar Götz on the occasion of the recent exhibition The Line of Beauty at Domobaal, London.
Götz discusses the particular challenges of creating site specific paintings. Asked about how his painting What Makes Boys Dance? altered the environment Götz comments: "What was interesting when we started to paint everything pink, it become not a very pleasant room. It changed from a very, very tasteful grey into something like an institutional colour, perhaps like when it was a lawyer's office; and then we added the black and it was extremely graphic. We might have left it black – there are lots of stages where you think it can be left. What I find interesting with these site specific pieces is that at every stage is an option, you could do this, or you could do that. I could make a whole series of different pieces for a room and see how it reacts."

I have a DroidX2 on Verizon and I always get duplicate text messages and it's super annoying. Is there a simple way to fix this? Or is this a carrier issue?
This does sound like a network (carrier) issue, however, do you have any applications that intercept text messages? If so, uninstall it, and see if that helps.
Edit: i just got this issue on an ICS rom. What i think it could be - your network holds the text, and tries to send it if your phone is turned off, or has no signal. It then tries to send them. After it has sent, the network doesn't actually realise it, and sends it again.
Yes this is clearly a carrier issue.
If you are using the stock sms application, I've never come across this apart from carrier forwarding.
Sounds like a carrier issue, as said. However, this could be due to an issue with your connection?
You could possibly do a Factory Default Reset, and see if that alleviates the problem. Could be a faulty installation causing the connection to send twice or something? Not too sure how that works, but it might be worth a shot.
If not, then possibly contact your Carrier, regarding the issue, and they may have an appropriate answer for your query.

It is that time of the year where you never know what the weather will bring, e.g. snow, ice, or sleet. Maryland's best response to this dangerous weather is the use of salt, but how is it affecting the Chesapeake Bay?
According to the Department of Natural Resources (DNR), about 10-20 million tons of salt is used each year in the U.S. in order to make our roads drivable during severe weather, with majority being applied to roads within the Mid-Atlantic region. During an average winter a four-lane highway, located within the Chesapeake Bay region, will receive about 20 tons of road salt per mile. DNR puts it in perspective saying that this "would be equivalent to over 15 billion gallons of seawater" if all the salts were dissolved in water.
Ocean water has high salinity; so, if this is a natural compound that is already found in water, how bad can it be? Well, the salt we use to treat our roads does not contain just sodium chloride; it contains impurities as well, such as phosphorus, nitrogen, copper, and cyanide. Cyanide can break down under certain conditions making it very harmful to humans and wildlife. Scientists have found a range of 3 to 270 parts per billion (ppb) of cyanide in urban streams for a short amount of time after salt has been applied. At 20 ppb cyanide begins to be toxic to aquatic life. Furthermore, Sodium chloride may not be toxic to humans and seems to have little effect on our drinking water; however, Canada has recently declared road salt as an environmental toxin, where about 1,000 ppm can be harmful to aquatic life. Streams and wetlands have been found to be well over this amount during the winter months and the species within these ecosystems are not adapted to live in saline waters.
A recent article published in the Baltimore Sun, "Road salt is killing Garrett County", claims that Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA) is "destroying Mountain Maryland" because of the 48,352 tons (more than 80 tons per lane-mile) of salt that was applied during winter 2012. Although it is of priority to keep our roads safe it was found that the Upper Peninsula of Michigan receives 50 percent more snow than Garrett County, yet only "used 24 tons of salt per lane-mile".
SHA officials were found to have no clue as to how much salt is being used in Maryland compared to other states and there is apparently no official method to salt usage.
During the winter months be conscious of the amount of salt you use around your home and where the storm drains run. Furthermore, look for products that are more environmentally safe and safe for your pets as well. Yes, we should do what we can to make traveling safe, but we must make sure it makes sense and we are not destroying an ecosystem in the process and spending tax money recklessly.
