An temporary alliance formed between the ocean and the sky with the goal of killing people. The ocean's ability to attack the land is limited, so it lends the sky some of its water and energy so it can assault people farther inland then it normally could.
Hurricanes are far more powerful then the storms the sky creates on its own. They are just another reason the ocean must be destroyed.

A most ridiculously rip-roaring good bong costing somewhere around $500-$600. This thing will roast you so quick you won't know what hit you. With a bubbler in the bowl itself, the smoke goes through numerous chambers before it hits your lungs, making this one clean machine.
My friend bought a Hurricane and I couldn't decide whether it hit better or worse than his ROOR.

Brace for the smooth taste- hurricane
by John January 22, 2005
A severe Tropical Storm which forms in the ocean over warm water. Maximum sustained winds that accompany a hurricane are 74 mph and up. The worst part of the hurricane is the eyewall, where the fiercest wind is.

Large tropical storms which are obviously also very racist.
Other racist types of storms include:
tornadoes = racist against white trash
earthquakes = don't like fags (San Francisco)
fires = seem to not like rich Californians (see also fags)

X-23 the Best!!!!! ^_^
Very nice. Subtle.
is this for sale?
This is drawing from the NYX period right? Nice
thanks Ookami! thanks guys!!!!!
Wow very well done, your drawing is wonderful. I'm a recent fan of X-23 and I think this is one of the best pictures I've seen. Your work just proves that it's not always the epic fighting poses that make the best pics of these characters. There is something about the way you portray her here that I admire more than the rest.
WOW! thanks !!!
You're very welcome.
Kind of got to take a little look at your gallery and I'm rather impressed. Not only is it all very well drawn but I am very fond of the poses you use. Well done.

very cool!
that's rawesome.
love her.... and love your work...
The post here is X-23 captured in a rare moment, almost vulnerable or seeming normal despite her tragic history. It is truly one of my favorite pieces of a complex character.
You did an awesome job there *fav* The expression and pose just scream of her and you deserve love for drawing her clothes xD
Thanks SilentMortal!
i wanna comment on it, but the picture speaks for it self, its AMAZING how you drew X-23! you captured her so well, that you would think it was drawn by the creators themself!
I like her feeling you've given to her. She looks kind of sad, dejected almost.
Your X-23 stuff is top notch. Can't wait to see what's next. Somebody has got to color this stuff.
I really love your X-23 sketches! awesome job!
Wow this is really good! Great job!

MOBILE, Ala. ---- Nine different Auburn Montgomery players scored, led by a game-high 12 points by sophomore Quay Davis, as the Warhawks earned a critical Southern States Athletic Conference road victory over Mobile, 57-50, Thursday at Pharr Arena.
With the win, the Warhawks improved to 7-9 on the season and 6-4 in league play. The Rams fell to 11-8 overall and 5-6 in conference games.
"We played pretty steady defensively," head coach Larry Chapman. "Tonight was a very physical game and our boys really played hard and put it on the line. I was proud of everyone involved. This was a complete team victory."
Davis was joined in double figures by senior Michael Acoff, who added 11 points in the victory. Junior Reshad Bickham chipped in nine points, while freshman Tristen Harrell finished with eight. Davis finished with a game-best six assists and junior LaRel Jackson pulled down a team-leading six rebounds. Bickham, Harrell and sophomore Michael Willis each grabbed five boards.
The Warhawks fell behind early in the contest, trailing 14-6 following a three-point play by Cody Scott with 11:53 remaining in the half. However, AUM answered with an 11-3 spurt to tie the score at 17 on a trey by Harrell. The run was part of an 18-3 run to close the half, as the Warhawks held a 24-17 lead at the intermission.
In the second half, AUM extended its lead to as many as 13 points, 47-34, following a free throw by Bickham with 6:31 remaining. The Rams could only trim the margin to six points with 27 seconds to play before a Bickham free throw provided the final margin.
For the game, AUM converted 41.7 percent of its shots from the floor, including 5-of-9 from behind the arc. The Warhawks also held a 36-27 advantage in rebounds, but committed 22 turnovers, leading to 25 points for Mobile.
Chris Richardson led the Rams with 11 points, while Julien Sargent added eight points.
AUM will return to action Saturday, Jan. 26, when it hosts William Carey in a doubleheader, beginning at 2 p.m. In addition to the two games, AUM will welcome the Auburn Pep Band for its annual visit and will also celebrate Curtiss the Warhawk's first birthday party with cupcakes between games.

I'm new to running. I just started running at the gym in November. I started off slow, adding 5 minutes to my walk each week until I built up to 30 minutes straight running. I was feeling really good and loving running (which surprised me) and signed up for a 5K at end of Jan. BUT...it seems I may have been overzealous as I'm schedule for an MRI on Monday and the Ortho thinks it is most likely a stress fracture or pulled muscle (hamstring on the front part of leg) or possibly both. I'm not allowed to run, walk on the treadmill, basically nothing. I'm completely bummed and realize I probably won't make my 5K now. I'd like to shoot for end of Feb.
How long is recovery from this time of injury typically? I'm chasing around 2 little children all day so I don't get many opportunities to sit & rest, which I know is the dr's advice.
If it is a stress fracture, you can expect to be out anywhere from 4-8 weeks. Possibly longer depending on where it is and how severe it is. Ones in the upper leg and pelvis tend to be the ones that take the longest to heal unfortunately. The foot and shin are usually the easiest. If it is a stress fracture, your 5k in January is most definitely out and I wouldn't count on February. After returning from the injury, you will have to build up very slowly again in order to not re-injure yourself and not even necessarily the stress fracture again but possibly another injury due to coming back too fast.
If it's simply a strained muscle, your January 5k is still probably out (you might be able to run/walk it depending on how severe it is) but you'd want to ask your doctor. A February one would probably be OK as long as you are well healed.
ACTIVE is the leader in online event registrations from 5k running races and marathons to softball leagues and local events. ACTIVE also makes it easy to learn and prepare for all the things you love to do with expert resources, training plans and fitness calculators.

It's getting to be now that a football game will break out in the middle of a tailgate party. Tailgating is a way of football life, especially on the college and pro level.
This was inevitable. Tailgating has been taken to a unique level. It's called "boxGATE," this bar/lounge/sun deck/kitchen/grill on wheels. It debuted publicly last Saturday at Texas Tech's spring practice in Midland.
It was founded by two women with Texas Panhandle connections -- Sheryl Estes, native of Mobeetie, former West Texas A&M guard and former head women's basketball coach at Wayland Baptist, and Ja'net Howey, wife of Midland ISD athletic director Todd Howey, former AD at Canyon ISD.
And it's one of those why-didn't-I-think-of-that inventions.
The product repurposes shipping containers that features a full bar with room for a keg, two flatscreen TVs, a grill, leather sofa and an 8-by-20 foot sun deck.
Howey wrote in an email to Yahoo Sports: "Sheryl began talking about an idea she had of building an apartment complex out of shipping containers. Much to my surprise, I had actually been researching shipping containers as well and was in the development stage of planning an urban trailer park built from the containers. We both had a good laugh because who in the world dreams about containers other than us?
"The odds of us both unknowingly thinking of ways to utilize shipping containers was astronomical, so we knew we had to explore its possibilities. We drew up our idea on a piece of paper and boxLIFE was born."
Howey and Estes hope to partner with universities and organization to market boxGATE units to lease to fans and corporations during a football season.
Tech is the first university to partner with boxGATE. Individual units can be sold to businesses to promote an event.
Howey said the unit takes less than five minutes to set up.
"The fold down deck is motorized. The awning slides out. The doors are unlatched. Just fire up the attached grill and flip on two HD televisions and the party is started," she said.
Walter Riggs, are you paying attention?

I just got an Olevia LT27HVX and I am having a very strange audio problem. 95% of the time, the tv is working fine, but every now and then the audio will just fade out for about 3-5 seconds and then come back. The fading out usually comes in clusters. So I have watched a full 2 hour movie without having this problem and then have watched a 30 minute show where it happens 5-10 times. It is still under warranty but I would have to ship it to them which kinda of sucks. Obviously I will do this if it is the only way to fix the problem, but I am wondering if anyone knows of something else it could be in the settings or something simple that could possibly fix it. The problem has happened on both regular cable and dvd's so I do not think it is the input device. Any ideas? Thanks.

The New York Times Asks Obama and Congress to Take Lead Ending Marijuana Prohibition
Posted on09. Nov, 2015 by Admin.
Continuing its support for sensible marijuana policies, The New York Times published an editorial Thursday asking Congress and the president to support a bill, introduced this week by Sen. Bernie Sanders, that would allow states to determine their own marijuana laws.
Support for making marijuana legal is increasing around the world, and that is a good thing. Earlier this week, the Mexican Supreme Court opened the door to legalizing the drug by giving four plaintiffs the right to grow cannabis for personal use.
In Canada, the newly sworn in prime minister, Justin Trudeau, has said he intends to change the law so people can use the drug recreationally; medicinal use is already legal in that country. And in the United States, Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for president, recently introduced a bill that would let states decide if they want to make the drug legal without worrying about violating federal law.
Laws banning the growing, distribution and possession of marijuana have caused tremendous damage to society, with billions spent on imprisoning people for violating pointlessly harsh laws. Yet research shows that marijuana is far less harmful than alcohol and tobacco, and can be used to treat medical conditions like chronic pain.
What's needed now is responsible leadership from President Obama and Congress. They ought to seriously consider the kind of legislation Mr. Sanders has proposed.
You can read the full editorial here.

Founder's Blog: The Gift from Obama
Posted on11. Jun, 2014 by Admin.
Many marijuana smokers were thrilled when Barack Obama became president since he'd previously "outed" himself in his 1995 memoir Dreams From My Father. In his memoir, Obama acknowledges that he and his friends in the "Choom Gang" were regular marijuana smokers during his high school years in Hawaii, a practice he apparently continued while attending Occidental College in LA for two years followed by two years at Columbia University in New York.
This was further confirmed by David Maraniss' in his 2012 biography titled Barack Obama: The Story, which provided more details and suggested that Obama had been a serious pothead during his youth, favoring local Hawaii strains such as Maui Wowie, Kauai Electric, Puna Bud, and Kona Gold; none of which apparently limited his ability to excel academically, as he was subsequently President of the Harvard Law Review in 1991.
Many of those same smokers became disillusioned when President Obama did nothing to advance legalization during his first term, and on the occasion when the topic was raised by a White House petition or otherwise, he refused to treat marijuana legalization as a serious policy topic, instead making jokes about what all those petition signers must have been smoking – deflecting a question on a hot-button social issue, but it also felt insulting to those of us who smoke.
Perhaps because I have lived in Washington, DC for 48 years and have seen too many administrations come and go, I did not expect Obama to do anything significant to advance marijuana legalization during his first term. Controversial policy changes generally come, if at all, during a president's second term, when he faces no future elections, and is sometimes willing to risk some of his personal popularity to embrace a policy on principle.
That appears to be precisely what has occurred with Obama.

President Obama: Marijuana Less Dangerous Than Alcohol; Legalization in WA and CO "Important"
Posted on19. Jan, 2014 by Admin.
In a profile published online over the weekend in New Yorker magazine, President Barack Obama continued his softening towards marijuana legalization. In the interview, the president alluded to his own youthful marijuana consumption and clarified that, while he doesn't believe it to be a healthy pastime and has discouraged his daughters from its use, it is a less dangerous substance than alcohol. President Obama also stated that current moves towards legalization are important experiments that can help end discriminatory arrest practices.
"As has been well documented, I smoked pot as a kid, and I view it as a bad habit and a vice, not very different from the cigarettes that I smoked as a young person up through a big chunk of my adult life. I don't think it is more dangerous than alcohol." President Obama stated when asked about the growing public support for ending marijuana prohibition.
"Middle-class kids don't get locked up for smoking pot, and poor kids do and African-American kids and Latino kids are more likely to be poor and less likely to have the resources and the support to avoid unduly harsh penalties." he continued, "we should not be locking up kids or individual users for long stretches of jail time when some of the folks who are writing those laws have probably done the same thing."
"It's important for it [marijuana legalization in Colorado and Washington] to go forward because it's important for society not to have a situation in which a large portion of people have at one time or another broken the law and only a select few get punished."

Perhaps President Obama will continue to evolve and find himself on the right side of history when it comes to marijuana legalization. It would take just one simple Executive Order to deschedule marijuana from the Controlled Substances Act and help institute some real lasting change in our nation's failed war on cannabis. At a minimum, these statements show just how far we have come from the "Just Say No" era of American politics.

Obama Drug Czar: We Will Go After Marijuana Distributors In Washinton And Colorado
Posted on27. Feb, 2013 by Admin.
In an interview with Canadian news magazine Maclean's last week, Gil Kerlikowske, President Obama's Director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy, stated that despite recreational legalization in Washington and Colorado, they would still go after distributors and growers in both states. "You'll continue to see enforcement against distributors and large-scale growers as the Justice Department has outlined. They will use their limited resources on those groups and not on going after individual users," said Kerlikowske, who is also a former Seattle Police Chief.
In an interview with ABC News, soon after the November legalizations in Washington and Colorado, President Obama said, "We've got bigger fish to fry. It would not make sense for us to see a top priority as going after recreational users in states that have determined that it's legal."
It is likely President Obama chose his words carefully by only mentioning individual users and not distributors or growers, despite many being led to believe there would be no federal interference at all within the two states.
Back when running for president in 2008, Barack Obama stated that medical marijuana was an issue for state governments, not the federal government. "I'm not going to be using Justice Department resources to try to circumvent state laws on this issue," he said, promising to end raids on medical marijuana dispensaries seen under the Bush Administration. Many soon learned his real intentions when the DEA raided four times as many marijuana dispensaries as Bush, in half the time.
Just last month Washington's newly-elected governor Jay Inslee met with U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to discuss Washington's new legislation legalizing marijuana. Without going into any detail over what Holder actually said, Inslee said he was "encouraged" from what he heard.
Inslee also said he "thinks (Holder) is going to give us an opportunity to make our case to allow us to express and give effect to the voters' will," leading many to question why no solid statements on Holder's position were given.
At this time no mention has been made over whether the federal government will be going against all distributors and growers, or just those who aren't going through the proper channels under Washington state law to do so.
Also this month, Washington State Rep. Matt Shea (R) introduced legislation to permit the development of an industrial hemp industry within state. Whether or not the federal government will attempt to derail this remains to be seen.
"The constant contradictions coming out of this administration lead to a massive amount of uncertainty, but the bottom line is, according to the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution, anything made and sold that stays within the state of Washington is beyond their jurisdiction. Also there are states' rights under the 10th Amendment," noted Rep. Shea.
At this time, it appears both Colorado and Washington will move forward with the legalization process. Washington state is currently accepting applications for newly created pot consultant positions with the Washington State Liquor Control Board.

Tax Rate in Polk City Will Not Be Lowered; Final Meeting on Budget Monday
Published: Friday, September 20, 2013 at 7:27 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, September 20, 2013 at 7:27 p.m.
POLK CITY | City Council members voted against lowering the property tax rate 25 cents to $8.40 per $1,000 of taxable value after Finance Director Pamela Lawson asked them not to at the first reading of the 2013-14 budget.
Instead, members approved a rate of $8.65 per $1,000 of taxable value Monday.
The total proposed budget is about $3.8 million, down from this year's $4.9 million budget. The decrease is mostly a result of the completion this year of a water and sewer system upgrade.
The second public hearing and final vote for the property tax rate and budget is scheduled for the council's 6 p.m. meeting next Monday. The budget must be approved before the budget year begins Oct. 1.
At the last meeting, Council member Trudy Block proposed reducing the property tax rate from $8.65, the original proposed rate, to $8.40.
The council did not vote then, but members said they supported the lower rate.
The reduction would have meant $13,444 less revenue for the city.
Lawson said she wanted to maintain the same rate as the current budget to avoid having to raise it in the coming years, which are projected to have very tight budgets.
City Manager Patricia Jackson offered a possible $2 per household reduction in garbage fees as an alternate way to save residents money. The city is in negotiations with Republic Services to see if that is possible. If negotiations fail, the rates will stay the same.
"That's going to be more noticeable, I believe, to the community than anything else," Council member Keith Prestage said.
Four council members voted against the lower rate and then approved the higher rate. Block voted to approve the lower rate and against the higher rate.
Polk City's property tax rate has been $8.65 per $1,000 of taxable value for three fiscal years.
At that rate, the owner of a $100,000 home with $50,000 in homestead exemptions would pay $432.50 in property taxes.
The council members unanimously approved the 2013-14 budget, as figured with the higher rate, on first hearing.
Block said she was disappointed that the council did not select a specific goal for improving the city with this budget.
"I personally agree that there should always be goals set," Prestage said. "But we have to consider that we're trying to recover from things that happened in the past."
The general fund, which finances most city services, is about $1.8 million. The enterprise fund, which finances water and sewer operations, is about $2 million.
The city could see more revenue from water bills if it moves forward with replacing inaccurate water meters.
Lawson said water and sewer fees will remain the same, as will employee salaries.
A $15,000 grant from the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity also will boost the city's income for 2013-14. The community planning grant, which the Central Florida Regional Planning Council applied for in June, will be used as part of a plan to make improvements to the city.
The Planning Council is leading a series of workshops and meetings to determine what changes residents are interested in.
Capital improvements listed in the budget include:
$116,000 to repave roads in the "honey bee area" behind Dollar General.
$9,000 to paint the library, replace the carpet and do routine maintenance.
$8,500 to repair and replace grills and picnic tables at the pier, replace the damaged fence at Freedom Park and replace or repair grills at Freedom Park.

The Catbird Seat
It's always been easy to take for granted the work of baseball broadcasters, yet there is arguably no one outside of the actual players who is more responsible for propagating the traditions and memories that keep the game alive from generation to generation. I've figured that over my lifetime there is no voice--including possibly even those of my immediate family members--that has spent more time tramping around in my consciousness than that of Herb Carneal, the Twins' Hall of Fame broadcaster.
Think about it: String together Herb's broadcasts one after the other over his 36-plus seasons and you'd have a chronicle of Minnesota baseball history that would run continuously, around the clock, for almost two years. It's always amazed me that so many of my greatest baseball memories are moments I know only from the words and descriptions of broadcasters like Carneal. A good announcer describes a play for you and in some strange, long-conditioned act of translation, something you never literally witnessed becomes a visual memory.
It's a remarkably difficult job, and you don't realize how much faith you have invested in a broadcaster until you hear a bad one. Twins fans have been remarkably lucky to have Carneal around all those years. His seemingly effortless, perfectly companionable style has been a pleasant alternative to the typical bombast of so much modern broadcasting, and local fans could be forgiven their trepidation when it was announced that beginning with this season Carneal would be scaling back his workload and calling only Twins home games, allowing Ryan Lefebvre to settle in next to John Gordon for road broadcasts.
Baseball broadcasting has traditionally been a nomadic, dues-paying fraternity, and Lefebvre, who at 27 years of age has been the youngest broadcaster in the major leagues for four seasons now, would at first glance seem the unlikeliest of long-shot choices to replace Carneal. The son of a former major-league player, coach, and manager, Lefebvre came to Minnesota in 1989 to play baseball for the Gophers, and was by his own admission a "cocky, carefree California surfer dude who didn't know Minneapolis from Pakistan." In his four years at the university he was a three-time All Big Ten selection and racked up school records for hits, triples, and games played. Following his Gopher career he spent one year in the Cleveland Indians' organization before deciding to walk off the field to pursue a career in broadcasting.
That decision puzzled many at the time, but Lefebvre says he had simply had enough. "I just realized that I didn't want to be a player anymore," he says. "I've heard a lot of other reasons tossed around, but it was really as simple as that. I'd been playing the game my entire life, and it got to the point where I felt I was taking an opportunity away from someone who really deserved it. I'd been doing radio work and internships the whole time I was at the university, and I knew all along that I eventually wanted to get into broadcasting."
He returned to the Twin Cities to finish up his last quarters of school, and in the fall of 1993 he was riding his bike over to St. Paul in the morning for an internship at KFAN, riding back to the university for afternoon classes, and then riding out to internships at MSC and WCCO-TV in the evenings. "That was a crazy time," Lefebvre says. "I was riding something like 12 miles a day. Saturdays I was working as Mike Woodley's spotter for Gopher football, and Sundays I'd be working at the KFAN studios for Vikings games." Then he would stick around the studios late making audition tapes and picking the brains of the people around him. He followed his internships with a couple of seasons broadcasting minor-league games for the Minneapolis Loons, home and away.
"It was strictly a one-man show," he says. "I carried around the equipment from game to game, and I was the engineer, producer, and announcer. I would record every broadcast and take the tapes back to my hotel room at night to critique them."
Lefebvre says that all along the way he had a pretty good idea what he needed to do to get ahead, but in conversations with him you get the impression that he has spent so much time accelerating the dues-paying process that he's never had a real chance to pause and study his ambition. Things just kept happening for him, the breaks kept falling, and in his breathless rush to his current success he's managed to cultivate a deceptive sense of ease in everything he does. At 27 he has already spent his entire adult life scrambling for footing in an industry where the entire climate is steeped in a sort of instinctual mutual ambition, and where the competition can be cutthroat. Yet he has moved to the head of the pack with a combination of fresh-faced zeal, natural ability, and a workhorse ethic that has included a willingness to take on any and all challenges, broadcasting college baseball, wrestling, hockey, football, and women's volleyball and basketball in the last three years alone.
"As lucky as I've been I've also worked really hard," he says. "I've always paid close attention to the guys who were already making a living in the business. Guys like Chad Hartman and Mike Max were my early role models. I watched how Chad prepared and how he handled callers, and Mike introduced me to people and taught me about the business and marketing side of broadcasting. I think I've picked up things from virtually everybody I've worked with along the way."
That gift for assimilation is readily apparent in Lefebvre's own style, which carries traces of many of the older men with whom he's worked in his short career. Although he grew up listening to Dick Stockton's Oakland A's broadcasts, and professes an admiration for Bob Costas's "impeccable use of the English language," he's quick to admit that he's basically copied his broadcast partners Gordon and MSC's Dick Bremer. What Lefebvre lacks in historical background or avuncular ease he makes up for with attention to fan-friendly details (his obsession with foul-ball catches in the stands is an early signature, and he has a keen appreciation for ballpark atmosphere) as well as an insider knowledge of the game that comes from a lifetime of playing ball and hanging out in major-league clubhouses with his father. He seems equally at ease among the younger players and the much older group of guys with whom he spends much of his life traveling, working, and hanging out. In his short career he has already done much to defuse the ready criticism of fans spoiled by decades of Carneal's solid professionalism, and it's a safe bet that he is the only major-league broadcaster who has his own gaggle of squealing teenage groupies.
Consequently, at an age when most aspiring baseball broadcasters are still laboring in the Midwest League, Lefebvre has already established himself as one of the most bankable guys in the Twins organization, and as a guy who could prove instrumental in attracting a new generation of fans to the ballpark. Through it all, by most accounts, he has remained self-effacing, approachable, and eager to learn. If he's encountered any resentment or jealousy along the way, he's not saying.
Considering the huge shoes he's had to fill and the inherent difficulties of the job, the passing of the microphone has been a relatively graceful one for local fans. Still, Lefebvre recognizes that he can never really replace Carneal, and he has no intention of trying.
"I think the fact that people got a chance to get familiar with my voice in '96 and '97 has maybe made the transition a little bit easier," he says. "But let's face it, Herb Carneal is the voice of the Twins, and as much of an honor as it is to have this great opportunity I also have to realize that there are a lot of people out there who don't want to hear me. I don't think it's anything personal--they want to hear Herb, and I understand that. As proud as I am of the fact that I'm the youngest broadcaster in baseball, I also recognize that that creates a whole different set of expectations in some people's minds. You know, the question marks are understandably going to be there. Have I paid my dues? Do I really belong here? And the only way I can answer those questions is by continuing to work hard and get better."
Lefebvre credits his broadcast partner, John Gordon, with helping him to make a relatively smooth transition to the larger role. "I learn so much from just watching John and how he prepares and goes about his business," he says. "He treats everybody he meets with such respect, remembers people's names, shakes everyone's hands. Those things are so important in this business. I've picked up a few things about broadcasting from John, but I've learned even more about life and how to be a decent person. I've had a lot of role models and influences in my life, but John's really been my mentor."
If Gordon is the steadying influence on Lefebvre, then WCCO's Dark Star is the smirking devil on his other shoulder. Decades apart in age, Lefebvre and Star are the unlikeliest of running buddies, and it is Star--the man Lefebvre calls "the youngest 50-year-old man in the world"--who continually reminds his younger colleague how blessed and lucky he is.
"This is a kid with so much natural ability and such a tremendous work ethic," Star says. "The first time he met me he shook my hand and asked me six questions. If he keeps his head on straight he could go all the way. He could be Bob Costas. If he wants the brighter lights I think he could have them, but for now I don't think there's a better place for him than here in Minnesota. Can you imagine being his age and having the opportunities he's got in front of him? I keep telling him he's hit a million-to-one shot--there ain't no heavy lifting, you show up every night and watch a ball game, they feed you, and you go home. How tough is that? You've gotta be good to get to where Ryan is, but you also have to be lucky, and as long as he remembers that he'll be okay."
Having already accomplished so much so fast, Lefebvre seems genuinely incapable or unwilling to even imagine a brighter future. Asked about where he thinks he might end up down the road, he simply shrugs and throws up his hands. "It's scary," he says. "I love Minnesota. I love this job, and I certainly recognize that there are plenty of guys twice my age who've been working their entire careers to get to where I am now. Last year I met an older broadcaster from New Britain who told me that he'd give anything for just one chance to announce a single Paul Molitor at bat. Something like that makes it pretty easy for me to keep things in perspective."

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (November 19, 2013) The late country star George Jones was a different kind of singer and his fans will get a different kind of look when they go visit his memorial in Nashville, Tenn.
The monument has a large arch with the words "He Stopped Loving Her Today" inscribed under his name.
That's the title of his best known hit.
The monument also has images of Jones and his widow Nancy, a guitar and his nickname, "The Possum."
On either side of the grave there are benches for his fans to sit and look the memorial.
Jones died in April at the age of 81.

For some reason, I had forgotten that I had a dark line down the middle of my belly last time I was pregnant. Of all the pregnancy symptoms there are, this is probably one of the least annoying ones... but I guess I should count myself lucky not to have it this time around. Anyone else mysteriously escape this as well?
Just realized that I escaped the Linea Negra!

I had it for my first but there is no sign of it this time around (at 30wks)! I also don't have any stretch marks, which I did last time. I'm enjoying that!
I had it with my son but I am expecting a girl and thought that may have to do with why it didn't show up so far. My tummy looks completey different this time too she seems to be head down and kicking my ribs, my son treated my stomach like a hammock always kicking my right side.

I've got it...again! I don't find it annoying though. Its a part of pregnancy. I don't, however, have any stretch marks..for the third time!!!! :) 6.5 weeks to go!!!
Angel Baby Boy - 9/25/09
Roosevelt Jacques III - 9/13/10
Penelope Kaleah - C Section Scheduled for 4/30
I didn't get it last time and don't have it so far at 32 weeks with this one. I wonder if it is because I am so white that my skin doesn't have enough pigment to even have one :-)
I haven't seen mine yet either...but I know it came really late last time, so I'm not counting it out yet.
My first was a September baby, so I wondered if maybe the time I spent floating on a raft over the summer made the pigment show up more?
We shall see!!

Happily married to David (3/1/08), and Mama to Nathan (9/3/09) and Brianna (4/27/12)
I actually like mine! I think it is just part of the pregnancy belly. I had it with DD and had it pop up with this one too.

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) is one of the most vocal climate alarmists in Congress. Each week, he delivers a "Time to Wake Up" speech on the Senate floor that rails against man-made global warming. And he repeatedly urges America to "move away from fossil fuels and transition to clean, renewable energy."
Ironically, his Rhode Island constituents are benefiting from these same fossil fuels—something Whitehouse has been quick to celebrate of late on Facebook when he talks about the shipbuilding and manufacturing projects that are bringing good-paying jobs to Rhode Island. It appears, however, that Whitehouse either doesn't know or doesn't understand why fossil fuels are driving this same economic growth.

Skip to comments.The McConnell challenge that wasnt
Posted on 05/20/2014 12:16:53 PM PDT by Baynative
Matt Bevin seemed like the ideal candidate to challenge Mitch McConnell. The handsome and personable businessman, a father of nine, impressed national conservative groups looking for a chance to knock off the Senate Republican leader.
These groups, from the Senate Conservatives Fund to FreedomWorks, the Tea Party Patriots and the Madison Project, invested more than $1 million in the Kentucky GOP primary. Bevin himself spent more than $3 million, including $1 million of his own fortune.
And, yet, polls indicate hes going to get creamed Tuesday.
(Excerpt) Read more at politico.com ...
If only McConnell was half as nasty going after Reid as he was to the Tea Party.
While it's an uphill fight for Bevin, what gives with posting a leftwing article about how all is lost when the election isn't over?
It's truly amazing to see so much effort being put out to discourage the average Kentucky voter.
So although I support and voted for Bevin, I do expect that McConnell will win the primary. The best I can see out of this is that McConnell and their campaign will see how much of the 'Base' truly wants him gone and that might, just might, make him campaign harder against Grimes in the General election.
Wasn't Cruz down big just before the election?
Well crap..... I donated to his campaign twice... I was really hoping that McConnell would go down in flames. Maybe we will get a big surprise tonight.
The article should be "The article that wasnt" because no results are in yet.
Just say'n.
Perfect result in November?
GOP wins Senate, but McConnell loses to Dem. Now THAT would be one helluva message.
McConnell is worse than a garden variety wimpy RINO. He actually declared war on the Tea Party, and not just in his state, but nationwide.
He has forfeited support in the general election.
Romney and the GOPs dirty tricks got Romney the nomination, but in the end, Romney was unelectable.
Did Bevin really come out in support of dog and cock fighting? Fox reported that last night.
Is this an open or closed primary? It makes a difference if Democrats are allowed to vote for their favorite Republicans.
I don't believe Romney was unelectable. A bit moderate, maybe, but he is a good man with a good heart who was painted as callous by the media in order to fool people into electing a man who, along with his wife, has no feelings or compassion for anyone but himself.
Oy. Way to push the narrative for a fait accompli, Politico...! "So, as we all will know in a few hours, Mark Bevin lost in an embarrassing landslide..."
Shame is definitely a rare commodity among media types, these days...
Saw McConnell on Megyn Kelly's show last night.
What a nothingburger he is.
No wonder Reid walks all over him.
To have Trent Lott, Bill Frist and Mitch McConnell as GOP Senate leaders is the best thing that ever happened to the Democrats.
And the same thing happens to Boehner.. giving us Sen Maj. Leader Cruz and Speaker of House Gowdy.
Every state elects the government it deserves.
Well yes, that would be awesome but no way Boehner loses McConnell is in some trouble in the general from what I've been told. I'm no expert on Kentucky however - but I think this could actually happen.
The thing is, whether Reid wins or not, Mitch still gets paid. If Bevin wins, Mitch loses money.
The guy fights for his own self interest. He'd be a Democrat if it got him elected.
Don't discount lazy voters in mid-terms. Bevin just has to beat the McConnell machine of paid supporters.
Romney was the only candidate who could not counter Obamacare. This is among the main reasons he was a terrible candidate.
Romney lost a winnable election, and he lost by quite a bit...including FL which Bush won in 2004 by half a million.
Romney was a terrible candidate. I was hopeful, but knew in my heart during the primaries he could not win. Despite doing better than I expected in debates and on the stump, he simply drew no one in that could be won by a more articulate, principled conservative that knows how to win people over.
Sorry, I don't believe he is a good man. He's a fool at best. A "good man" doesn't want open borders and amnesty and then at the same time say we should raise the minimum wage when the two are at odds as ideas. This guy is a supposed businessman?
No, Dewhurst was below 50% before the first primary, with Cruz in a solid second place, so we all knew that there was an excellent chance that Cruz would make the run-off; and Cruz was about even with Dewhurst in the polls just before the run-off, so right before the vote we knew that Cruz probably would win.
Bevin is not going to win today's primary, and KY does not have a run-off, so Bevin won't get a second chance even if McConnell gets below 50% (which he won't). A good candidate with a conservative record on which to run (such as Ted Cruz in Texas, Mike Lee in UT, Richard Mourdock in IN before he self-imploded, etc.) perhaps would have beaten McConnell in the primary, and then gone on to trounce Grimey (as she prefers to be called) in the general, but Bevin does not share such characteristics. Bevin should have run for a lower office instead before maybe running for the Senate in a few years.
If the 21% who voted against Boehner helps GOTV for Grimes, Boehner's a goner.
Taking on a very powerful guy is tough, especially when the crony wing of the party has lined up in lockstep with the failed leadership. This was always an uphill battle, and things just didn't break for Bevin. This rally he spoke at was small potatoes, but when millions are poured into it, a small misstep becomes more important than a disastrous leadership record.
While voter intensity has equaled the playing field in many elections the past 4 years, money still means a lot.
I don't think he has a position on dogs.
His campaign failed to drive Maobama's negatives up. His advisers were overpaid, even if they were receiving minimum wage. ANY wage is too much to pay an idiot. Bob
It's hard to run against a ONE PARTY SYSTEM!!!
He wasn't the worst candidate, but the power of incumbency, especially from a leader who has been bringing home the pork and building his network for years, is hard to beat.
Ref: Harry Reid re-election 2012.
Best message ever. And the way McConnell has trashed the same folks
who he needs to beat Grimes, I would not be surprised or disappointed
if Kentucky Conservatives send a message to McConnell, instead of
sending him back to the Senate.
A win-win would be the Republicans taking the Senate and McConnell losing.
THAT is exactly what will happen.
I certainly will not vote for McConnell in November if he wins today.
I will write in a Conservative.
Better the enemy we know than the one that works so hard to stab Conservatives in the back and help Obama and the Democrats establish an oligarchy over us with themselves as absolute rulers.
McConnell has to work with Reid, he can ignore the Tea Party. /disgust
"Did Bevin really come out in support of dog and cock fighting?"
No, not at all. He attended a fundraiser and another attender of that fundraiser was supportive of legislation to re-instate cock fighting.
"Fox reported that last night."
Dump Rove network and got with The Blaze. You will be much better informed and much better entertained. The fact that they reported a story that was already debunked WEEKS ago, is proof enough that they are pro-establishment and anti-individual liberty.
Pox on Fox.
When the MSM picks the GOP nominee, it's not going to be the person who can beat the DEM. Ever.
This system we're in needs to go away. We need to get rid of it. We know it's corrupt. We know McConnell is never going to be unseated. Why do we keep pouring money and time into it?
I thought Grimes was Ky, not Ohio.
And others would be...
A good man stood in the breach with courage and took on the establishment power structure when they thought they were sacrosanct. And that IMHO is a big deal. Not to mention others that did ( the guy who ran against Cantor ) and even Cantor didn't rack up huge numbers. We are the barbarians at the gate, and IMHO they are scared....
McConnell was using his weight within the Republican Party to threaten organizations and candidates who teamed up with the TEA Party.
[ Wasnt Cruz down big just before the election? ]
Cruz was but Cruz wasn't runnign against an incumbent that the bingo playing AARP crowd had burned intheir minds because they have been pulling the same lever for the last 30 years...
If Bevin goes down the conservatives should find someone to run as an independent/third party
No thanks, Can't stand Glenn Beck.
Speaking at a fundraiser to support cock fighting was a big mistake. I doubt many conservatives support legalizing cockfighting. It gave ammunition for McConnell. It makes me wonder if Bevin was chosen by the establishment with the express purpose of exploding at the end.
McConnell should have been beatable by a real conservative.
One more thing... The down ticket wins will be huge IMHO and the E-GOP will have to deal with those new turks with our mindset coming up through the ranks. One way or another they are going to have to deal with us...

Caption: Some days I come here just to ponder many situations in my life. It is a very peaceful place in our 100 acre woods, so to speak. No one lives here, and what a shame that is in some ways, yet what a gift for me. The sun is just beginning to set, and in doing so directs its rays beautifully on the upper story of this charming cedar cottage.

80's glam rocker band.

Poison is often scoffed at by music hipsters who listen to the Libertines and hate the fact that Death Cab made a major label album. But in the 1980's, Poison was constantly at the top of the charts and was one of the most popular bands of the time, on par with (look it up) Guns N Roses. The band's sleazy rock sound became synonymous with the Sunset Strip. Because the band wore makeup, they are frowned upon today, but mostly by people who have never heard their music. "Talk Dirty To Me" off their first album, Look What The Cat Dragged In, is a prime example of why Poison was so successful and was a great rock band.

Often the cause of psuedo-pedophilic crisis in the unfortunate victims who spend too much time with the Poison. Negative connotation in that going to far means jail time, but otherwise fun for all!

You were my brother Anakin,
I loved you.
We were connected Anakin.
But you've fallen so far,
I can't rescue you.
I spared you your life,
Left you for dead
Unable to finish you off.
Took your lightsabre and gave it to Luke,
And taught him the ways of the force.
You are his father.
And forever are Anakin Skywalker.
Though Vader has taken your life,
Consuming you the light side is.
Find faith in yourself and return...
My Brother. Anakin please return.
I was inspired by the relationship between Obi-Wan and Anakin and so I created this poem to show what was lost between Obi-Wan and Anakin at the end of the prequel trilogy and what was gained in the original trilogy; Luke.
Aww, so sad!
I absolutely adore Obi and Ani's relationship. I cried so hard when I first watched ROTS...
I really love this poem.
Okay.... I almost started crying!! love this !
Anakin forever - woo!
Beautifully said. That was always my favorite sad scene in the films. Especially when Obi-Wan says "You were my brother Anakin." then Ani says "I hate you!" So much emotion in that scene.

Accordions are becoming hip again
Years ago, people went door to door recruiting kids to take accordion lessons and schools cropped up all over L.A. Through the years, though, almost all of them have closed down. But Dave's Accordion School, which opened in Atwater Village in 1971, is still open. Now it's one of the few remaining places where people can take lessons or get their accordions fixed.
