Choosing between stylish riding gear and walking away after a crash is a no-brainer. Maybe the motorcycle safety gear you choose can't prevent an accident, but making smart choices about your protective wear can make all the difference if something does happen.
Many riders would say that a helmet is the most important piece of safety gear. A good helmet starts by insuring significant impact and accident protection and also helps you hear and see better when you're riding.
According to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration, a rider without a helmet is 40% more likely to suffer a fatal head injury—and helmets saved over 19,000 lives from 1984 to 2006.
When shopping for helmets, riders may notice decals from either the Department of Transportation (DOT) or Snell Memorial Foundation (Snell). Both standards address rider safety, but there are important differences between the two certifications.
Every motorcycle helmet sold in the U.S. is required to meet the DOT's FMVSS 218 standard. The Snell helmet standard, however, is based on a rigorous test developed by the Snell Memorial Foundation, a not-for-profit organization that develops voluntary standards for motorcycle helmets and other headgear. Helmets are voluntarily submitted by the manufacturers for testing which includes 7 test types, from impact to shell penetration tests to flame resistance testing. Helmets are certified only after technicians verify they meet Snell standards.
When you're riding, your feet keep you balanced at stoplights and take a beating from the elements when you're moving. That's why regular tennis shoes or cowboy boots aren't smart options. To stay comfortable—and safe—as you're riding, consider a pair of high-quality motorcycle boots.
A stiff rubber sole provides protection when you're moving and traction when you stop. Good soles can actually prevent you from tipping over if you plant your foot in gravel, oil or sand. Also, consider boots with a heel—they may offer a better "hold" on your bike's pegs.
The best boots protect both your feet and your legs. While the majority of boots are made of leather, the best boots are also reinforced in critical areas—shin, ankle, and calf—with a stronger material like Kevlar. Often called "ankle armor," these reinforcements can protect you from flying debris while you're moving and can actually protect you from leg injuries in a crash.
Choosing comfortable boots is vital. Boots that fit properly are snug enough to stay on if you wreck, but loose enough to allow proper circulation. Quality boots also help your feet stay dry and cool. Look for water-proof or water-resistant materials, as well as a ventilation system that lets your feet breathe.
Like boots, good gloves offer both comfort and protection. Gloves protect your hands from the weather. They may also be your first line of defense in a crash, since it's second nature to extend your hands during a fall. Look for gloves that protect your whole hand, including palms, fingers, and wrists. And to make sure you actually wear them, choose gloves that will be comfortable in any weather. Increased comfort can lead to better control, especially if you're riding for extended periods of time.
Leather may sometimes seem like a fashion statement, but quality leathers are an important first layer of defense between rider and road. Leather doesn't "grab" like other materials, so a rider wearing leathers in an accident may be more likely to slide, instead of tumbling head over heel, an advantage which can greatly reduce the chance of serious injuries.
There's no such thing as too much protection, so many riders add body armor to their riding attire. Built directly into jackets and pants or worn under gear you're already wearing, armor adds an additional layer of protection.
Memory foam armor is similar to the material inside motorcycle helmets and offers the highest impact absorption.
Hard armor is generally impact-resistant plastic with a foam interior. Hard armor tends to have less give in a fall.
Foam armor, usually made with inexpensive foam, offers the least amount of protection.
Even if you're just making a quick run to the store, don't take a shortcut with your protective gear. Jeans and a windbreaker won't be enough if you're sliding across the pavement. Heavy leather riding gear may seem like overkill—and sure, it's miserable on the hottest days—but it can help prevent road rash, broken bones, or worse.

Here's a ping pong match, done Matrix style, but without CGI effects. Watch to the end; it's worth it.

Yes but you can use open(2) then mmap(2). I suppose using shm_open(2)
tells the kernel you want to do mmap next.

With open/shm_open you have a file you can backup, that can persist over
reboots. (You would still have to msync it.)

SAN JOSE -- Before he died, Saratoga veterinarian John Oliver left his life savings for his children and wife of four decades, and set aside tens of thousands of dollars for charities around the globe.
Now, roughly $1.5 million of that money is gone. The Olivers are among dozens of victims scrambling to recoup a combined $17.3 million that vanished from trust funds overseen by Christine Backhouse, a well-known Silicon Valley estate manager. Her longtime boyfriend and former office controller Leo "Josh" Kennedy is accused in court records of secretly wiring millions of dollars from her clients' accounts.
"They've stolen from my father's legacy," said Karee Oliver, a Seattle biologist. "He was trying to leave a bulk of his estate to Mother Teresa and Doctors Without Borders -- that's who they've stolen from."
Public records reveal Kennedy purchased a $1.2 million luxury home adjacent to a Snoqualmie Ridge golf course in Washington state in 2010, the same year his name appeared on unauthorized wire transfers from the Heritage Bank of Commerce in San Jose. The transfers shifted trust funds to a new company, Orions Digital Technologies of Bellevue, Wash.
When Karee Oliver paid a visit to the firm's Bellevue address shortly after the wire transfers were exposed, she said she found the office empty.
Meanwhile, frustration and anger is high among the family members connected to dozens of trusts overseen by Backhouse, a Campbell fiduciary serving the South Bay. Many will appear in court Wednesday for an update on a legal plan to recoup the stolen funds. And some wonder why Backhouse is still licensed to do business -- given the devastating losses and an ongoing FBI investigation. According to claims in probate court records, 35 trusts handled by Backhouse Fiduciary Services have been looted.
The estate of John Oliver, who prepared a trust before he died at 84, is among those most affected. When Oliver's widow, Gail, learned the money was gone this year, she confronted Backhouse, saying, "Christine, how could you do this to us?" she recalled. "She said she knew nothing about it, that he did all the accounting."
Now, Oliver and other victims say they have difficulty accepting that Backhouse -- a state-licensed fiduciary who oversees $104 million in other people's money -- did not better monitor her bank statements, as funds were bled in 49 separate wire transfers over two years.
"We feel as a trustee she should have been checking all this but she wasn't," Gail Oliver said. "I would love to have Christine put out of business."
Backhouse, who has denied interview requests, has not been accused of a crime, and she is cooperating with the FBI investigation. No arrests have been made.
A spokesman for the state agency that licenses estate managers, known as fiduciaries, said there is no evidence so far compelling officials to suspend Backhouse's license.
"Our investigation is taking a back seat to the federal investigation because they're investigating a crime," said Russ Heimrich, a spokesman for the California Department of Consumer Affairs. A licensing decision will be made only after his agency gains access to materials the FBI has uncovered in its investigation, he added.
In court records, Backhouse maintains she only learned in February about the unauthorized wire transfers signed by Kennedy in 2010 and 2011. She told authorities she became suspicious after noting inconsistencies between her bank statements and her office's internal record-keeping program. Backhouse says when she confronted Kennedy, he fled.
And because she only had $1 million in insurance, she has turned to an international law firm that specializes in white-collar crime, Cotchett, Pitre & McCarthy, to track down the embezzled funds.
"The proactive steps that Ms. Backhouse has taken to recover the misappropriated funds demonstrate her commitment to doing everything she can possibly do to make the beneficiaries whole," Backhouse's attorney Andrew Watters stated in an email.
But friends and family members whose funds were embezzled want more done.
"All of Backhouse's financial dealings need to be thoroughly investigated," said April Halberstadt, who worked with the Campbell trustee to manage the estate of a mutual friend dying of bone cancer, but now laments Backhouse's involvement.
Another Backhouse client, Saratoga property manager Linda Houston, said she's not waiting around for something to happen with her estate. Houston said she intends to remove Backhouse as her designated trustee.
"In short order I'm going to be redoing my trust and I'm going to put it in the hands of one of my kids and then have them slug it out," Houston said. "I feel that she was hardworking and I'm going to use the word 'honest' -- at the same time I feel her license should be pulled. I really feel that there were clues there that she wasn't picking up on."

I'm not usually one to make direct comparisons like this, but this new TVXQ teaser looks pretty much identical to the music video for "Catch Me."
That is not a compliment.
Sigh… Come on, DBSK. ┬áYou're better than this.
I love these guys. I first discovered the this duo when they came out "Keep Your Head Down" (Yeah I know,I'm late and there were a 5 member group before. But I am comfortable with them this way) I fell in in love with the song and these guys. However it seems they are dwindling down a bit with their songs and I agree with Kristen. They are WAYYY BETTER than this.
We accept love and affection in the form of cash money

LifeVantage Corporation (OTCBB: LFVN) climbed to a 52-week high of 0.98 on Monday as shares in the company continue to gain momentum following another impressive quarter which showed preliminary net revenue of approximately $10 million, a 35 percent spike from the $7.4 million reported during the second quarter 2011 and a 270 percent increase from the $2.7 million in net revenue generated during the same quarter last year.
This is coming after the second quarter ending Dec. 31, 2010 marked a $1.0 million increase in net revenue from the first quarter and a $2.4 million jump from the same quarter one year earlier. Investors have responded to the revenue improvements, pushing trading volume in the maker of science-based solutions to oxidative stress higher with a five-day average now sitting above 541,000, well above the 50-day trading average of 250,590 and 200-day trading average of 188,026.
Along with the volume push share price has climbed significantly as well and the current 0.95 level is comfortably ahead of the 50-day moving average of 0.74 and 200-day moving average of 0.55, earning the LFVN strong buy marks from a number of outlets.
The success of LFVN has come largely from their patented anti-aging and wellness product Protandim, a dietary supplement that combats oxidative stress and has shown a number of positive attributes related to the prevention of the proliferation of cells that can cause re-blockage of vessels following coronary artery bypass surgery, stenting, and carotid enarterectomy.
Adding further credibility to Protandim is the fact that it was the subject of a peer-reviewed study conducted by researchers at The Ohio State University, a study sponsored by the American Heart Association and the National Institutes of Health. The findings of that study, published in the scientific journal Free Radical Biology and Medicine, entitled "Protandim attenuates intimal hyperplasia in human saphenous veins cultured ex vivo via a catalase-dependent pathway," xamined Protandim's ability to suppress intimal hyperplasia, a common adverse event that limits the effectiveness of several types of vascular surgery.
That review was published back in January and showed that Protandim, a dietary supplement comprised of five highly synergistic herbal ingredients, was able to increase the body's Nrf2-regulated protective genes, commonly referred to as "survival genes", which include most of the antioxidant enzymes.
What this does for LFVN is help further separate themselves from a host of anti-aging and wellness products that essentially concentrate on external appearances but provide little in the way of actual health benefits. According to that study Protandim could play a significant role in reducing or even eliminating the blockage of saphenous vein grafts used during multiple bypasses, a process that may result from intimal hyperplasia. Protandim was shown to increase antioxidant enzyme activity in veins cultured at high oxygen, while reducing free radical levels, lipid peroxidation, as well as reduce intimal proliferation to the level seen in a normal healthy saphenous vein.
This is significant for LFVN simply because it demonstrates that Protandim provides benefits that extend beyond its ability to decrease oxidative stress. If future studies can support evidence that Protandim is able to reduce intimal hyperplasia then it could be a serious player in procedures like coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, angioplasty with stent insertion, and carotid endarterectomy; these three procedures combined affect more than 1.5 million Americans every year.
Of course right now LFVN is marketing Protandim as a clinically proven dietary supplement that provides substantial benefits for healthy aging. For them to get Protandim into the above procedures they would need to get FDA approval and that is a long way off and incredibly costly.
Putting the FDA aside and just looking at the success LFVN has been enjoying there appears to be reason for optimism as the company has posted eight consecutive quarters of net revenue growth and six consecutive quarters of improvement in operating income or loss. LFVN took a big step in continuing that trend last month when they announced the appointment of Douglas C. Robinson as President and CEO, replacing David W. Brown.
Robinson, according to the announcement, brings over 20 years of relevant industry experience, including senior roles at UnitedHealth Group, Deloitte Consulting and PriceWaterhouseCoopers while most recently serving as CEO of WorkWell Systems, a physical medicine and workers' compensation solutions company.
Recognizing that Brown has headed substantial revenue growth, LFVN has placed him in the position of driving further revenue through the expansion of the company's network marketing operations. That could mean that in addition to Protandim receiving a greater push the company could advance the visibility of their LifeVantage TrueScience Anti-Aging Cream, a scientifically-based skin care product that contains ingredients of Protandim, giving skin, as the company states, "a beautiful, even and smooth tone, diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and provides a vibrant and glowing appearance."
Topical creams and anti-aging agents can be as profitable as any FDA approved drug and if Brown can continue to find success in growing revenue for LFVN and opening new marketing channels the company could find itself over that 1.00 threshold soon and provide shareholders impressive gains in the near future.

In our last article we looked at the negative effects that sin has on our lives. We saw how sin ultimately causes disruption in our relationships with other people and most importantly in our fellowship with God.
That first look included a review of how natural disasters can, in some part, be attributed to sin entering the world through the first sin committed by Adam and Eve. The way that the world is today is not how God intended things to be — nor are we. We also saw that there is nothing we can do to fix the problem of sin.
So, if we can't fix the problem ourselves, who can?
God Became Man
Christianity provides an answer unlike any other: God became a man so that we might become sons and daughters of God — He became a man in the person of Jesus Christ! The importance of this event cannot be overstated.
The good news is that Jesus Christ — who is 100 percent God and 100 percent man –came down from heaven to live among humans. He shared in our suffering, healed the sick, taught us how to follow God and died on a cross for the sins of the world. Three days later He rose from the dead, claiming victory over death. And now we will look at why Jesus qualifies as the only perfect solution to save us from our sins and restore us to God.
Prophecy Fulfilled
The Bible has much to say about Jesus Christ and His unique role in human history. The Old Testament is full of prophesies about Him and in the New Testament we see many of these prophesies fulfilled. The earthly life of Jesus is recorded particularly in the four gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. These books are the first books found in the New Testament.
It is in the gospels we discover a man unlike any other that has ever walked the earth. This man, Jesus, has been credited with bringing healing to people's lives in their most humiliating and broken situations. Indeed, it is in the gospels that we learn about a man who is able to do the things that only God can do. For Jesus healed people's lame legs and withered hands, freed them from bondage, eradicated deadly skin diseases and opened blind eyes. He cast out demons and even raised His best friend Lazarus from the dead!
Only God can do such works.
Forgiveness For Sins
One of the most compelling traits of Jesus's uniqueness is His ability to forgive people's sins. Indeed, no mere human being has the authority to forgive someone's sins on behalf of God unless that human being is God Himself. Jesus was accused many times throughout the gospels of assuming the place of God because He claimed things about Himself that Jewish scripture (Old Testament) stated could only be credited to God.
Not only is Jesus God, but he is also a man, one that lived a life just like you and me. Unlike us, Jesus never sinned.
You may be thinking, "No one's perfect. He never sinned even one time?" No, not even once.
Several books in the New Testament explicitly state that Jesus never sinned. Why would this fact be so important to Jesus's followers and for those who recorded his life? Why should it be so important to us?
Quite simply it is this: only a sinless person is able to pay for our sins. Jesus's unique role as both God and man is what qualifies Him to stand in our place in the face of God's just wrath against our sinful state.
You see, God is perfect, sinless and infinitely holy. God created us in His likeliness, to demonstrate His love for us and to make it possible for us to show love to Him in return.
Sin Has Consequences
God cannot, however, tolerate sin and let it go unpunished — sin is against His very nature and being. Rather than let us die in our sins, God put on human flesh 2,000 years ago, becoming Jesus the babe in the manger. That is why we celebrate Christmas.
Jesus came to save us from our sins and restore our relationship with God. The perfect God-Man and only sinless human being to ever walk the face of our planet would do the unthinkable to solve the problem of sin: He would give His life freely on a cross and absorb all sins, taking the punishment we deserved upon Himself. He died for us because He knew the cost was well worth the victory.
In next week's article titled "The Final Solution to Sin and Death," we will spend explore the significance of the cross and what His death means to us personally.

LEAO, Renata Carneiro et al. Computed tomography in the assessment of angioinvasive pulmonary aspergillosis in patients with acute leukemia. Radiol Bras [online]. 2006, vol.39, n.5, pp.327-331. ISSN 0100-3984. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0100-39842006000500006.
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the main findings of computed tomography in patients presenting acute leukemia complicated by angioinvasive aspergillosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Computed tomography images of 19 patients were retrospectively studied for the presence of consolidations, nodules and masses, with or without presentation of halo sign, cavitation and air crescent sign. RESULTS: Consolidation was the most frequent finding, occurring in 12 of the 19 cases, most of them presenting the halo sign; cavitation was found in 5 of 12 cases, one of them with air crescent sign. Nodules and masses occurred respectively in six and four cases, most of them with halo sign. Cavitation was found in only one case of mass. Other findings observed were: crazy-paving pattern (two cases), patchy areas of ground-glass attenuation opacity (three cases) and pleural involvement (seven cases) under the form of effusion or thickening. CONCLUSION: Areas of consolidation, mass or nodule, even a solitary one, presenting halo sign on CT images evaluated in an appropriate clinical context are highly suggestive of angioinvasive aspergillosis.
Keywords : Angioinvasive pulmonary aspergillosis; Acute leukemia; Computed tomography.

3 stacks of cards with consonants. A wooden cylinder (the microphone) stands in the middle of the table. A 5-column pegboard with columns for each of the vowels.
You turn over the top card in each column. If you can think of a word with these letters in it, in any order, grab the mike and say the word.
You now move your pegs up the pegboard each time a specific vowel is used. Words with e's are easy. words with u's will bust your brain. But you have to move all your vowels up the pegboard and off the board. When you get all 5 vowel pegs off the board, you win.
The consanants are the ones that take some thought to forms words with.
You will fight for the microphone.
The hard combinations where the mike sits there waiting to be grabbed.
The groping for words when you can't think of one.
The game is a total hoot. You will laugh. You will curse. You will battle.
And you will have a great time.
The only downside is that it is only for four players.
You can play with serious gamers and you can play with kids. But you will have to think fast if you want to be a Word Whiz!
This incarnation of the License Plate game (take three random letter and think of a word using them in sequence) is the best yet. It adds some strategic insights (attempting to use certain vowels, based on how many of the others you have used) which keeps players from simply blurting out random words which would score precious few points.
But it does have its flaws. Players physically fight over a little wooden dowel to claim the right to respond. And a slow letter-turner will be accused of giving themselves (or others) an unfair advantage. So there will be disputes.
As long as the game is taken lightheartedly, it works very well. But some less brutal way of claiming the podium would have been easier to swallow.

The Three Musketeers
by Alexandre Dumas
The Three Musketeers Chapter Twelve: George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham Summary
READ THE BOOK: Chapter Twelve: George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham
- Madame Bonacieux leads the Duke down various passages, finally ending up in a room where she leaves him, and locks the door behind her.
- Still, the Duke of Buckingham is fearless. He is rash and loves adventure, so even after discovering that the letter from Queen Anne was a hoax to lure him (remember, from Chapter Eight?), he insists on seeing her anyway.
- Madame Bonacieux was to make all the arrangements, but she was briefly abducted.
- We get a brief description of the Duke—thirty-five, insanely good-looking, really powerful, and seducing powerful women. The man has some serious bravado to seduce the Queen of France. The married Queen of France.
- The Queen walks in. She looks absolutely beautiful.
- The Duke is dazzled. The Queen is dressed very plainly, but it only enhances her beauty. He falls to her feet and kisses the hem of her dress.
- Then Anne (that's the Queen's first name) points out that the two of them don't have very much going for their relationship.
- First, there's the long-distance thing. He lives in England, she lives in France, and neither phones nor airplanes have been invented yet.
- Second, there's the whole your-country-hates-my-country issue.
- And lastly, there's the marriage part: Anne is a married woman.
- This is a bad combination, and Anne knows it. She says they can never see each other again.
- The Duke says he was too distracted by the beauty of her voice to pay attention to what she was saying. None of that means anything, he says, because the two of them are meant to be together forever.
- The Queen points out that she's never said that little phrase that begins with "I" and ends in "you."
- But, replies the Duke replies, she never said that she didn't love him. He praises her beauty some more.
- The Duke takes a couple trips down Memory Lane, asking her if she remembers all their encounters—encounters, which quickly became the scandal of the court.
- We learn that the Duke wanted to be the ambassador to France, but that the King nixed that whole idea on the grounds of, well, he didn't want his wife's lover hanging around.
- The Duke retaliated by waging war. He tells Anne that even though they're not allowed to see each other, she will hear about him every day. And when the war finally concludes and they send in the people who figure out the terms of peace, the Duke is planning to be one of those people. Yes, thousands of men may die, says the Duke, but he'll be able to see Anne again.
- He is one intense lover; Anne points out that all his proofs of love are practically criminal.
- They continue bantering back and forth. It becomes clear that despite her protestations, Anne is really into the Duke. She tells him that she has a recurring dream in which he is lying and bleeding.
- The Duke asks if the wound is on the left side and caused by a knife.
- Anne is shocked that he knows the dream. She has told no one about it. The Duke thinks that having the same dream is further proof of that the two are meant to be.
- Anne tells him to get the heck out—she will be unable to forgive herself if he is killed because he wants to see her. She tells him to come back openly one day and she will be happy to see him.
- The Duke agrees, but asks for a token of her love.
- She gives him a golden casket (small trinket marked with her initials in gold) and tells him to leave.
- Madame Bonacieux meets him again and escorts him out of the palace.

Manhunt continues for pair sought in home invasion
Tip leads deputies to search area along U.S. 69, 158th Street
Authorities continued their search for two men wanted in connection with a home invasion in Miami County on Tuesday.
A woman was tied up inside a home in the 25800 block of Old Kansas City Road near Hillsdale on Tuesday afternoon while three men ransacked her house. The woman was able to get free after the men left and told police about the vehicle they had.
Police tracked the vehicle to 271st Street and Metcalf Road a short time later. The driver was taken into custody but two passengers ran out. A manhunt for them Tuesday afternoon and evening ended without an arrest.
On Wednesday, a passerby reported seeing someone who might be one of the two men near Highway 69 and 158th Street.
Miami County deputies came out to the area and have been searching ever since. They said they plan to continue the search in the area until there's an arrest or they've exhausted the leads.

I've been putting off posting the last of admissions-related posts this season. (I've chronicled my maiden admissions committee journey here, here, and here.) This post relates to pieces of conventional wisdom that were passed down to me in high school and college about law admissions that actually are not true. As with the other posts, I want to point out that the information I am passing along is meant to depict what does happen, not what should happen or what I wish would happen in the admissions process. So, I would like to dispel some myths, but of course most, if not all, readers of this blog are too far along in their law school admission journey to change courses. However, if you have younger friends, please do not continue to pass along these commonly-held misperceptions of the admissions process.
1. It does not matter where you went to college. This is false. Now, that does not mean that you have to go to an ivy-league school to get into law school, even an ivy league law school. This adage is true, but only to a point. Admissions committees like applicants who went to schools with which we are familiar. In addition, LSAC generates a sheet for every applicant that details facts about the undergraduate degree-granting school. So, if 49% of graduates from your college score in the bottom 10% of the LSAT, this shows up and instantly discredits your gpa. Committee members are happy to accept gpas from [Name your favorite private school] and from [Name your favorite state school], but get a little nervous when the gpa is from [School no one has heard of that appears to be unable to produce graduates who can complete the LSAT.] So, you may think it's shrewd to pass up a selective college for a college where you can "party" and get a 4.0, but it could come back to haunt you.
2. It does not matter where you went to college, Part 2. How many colleges did you go to? In my hometown, some common advice that high school teachers gave was to go to community college first, save your money, then transfer to a university. Let me just hint that most law professors did not go to community college. So, when admissions committee members see a lot of moving around on a transcript, people get nervous. Lawyers are very linear people. So, if you know you want to go to law school, start your academic career at a university. If you can't take the culture shock of being a freshman at a major research institution, then the first year of law school may be a little painful, too.
3. It does not matter what your major is. Again, false. But, like #1, this maxim is true to a point. It does not matter whether you major in Poli Sci, English, Business, History, Biology, Engineering, etc. However, it does matter whether you major in a subject that is widely recognized by admissions committees as an "academic subject." Again, the common advice in my hometown high school was to pick a major that you would like and that you would excel in. True, as among commonly known academic majors.
Law school is about reading, analyzing, and writing, so your gpa should reflect how well you do in those types of activities. So, a major that is unclear to outsiders as to the content of that major is not a safe choice. Admissions committee members get very concerned with applicants with high gpas in majors that seem either artistic (Dance, Theater, Design, Music (Performance)) or physical (Kinesiology, Corporate Fitness). If this is your love, minor in it or at least minor in a more traditional subject.
Admissions committees look at thousands of applicants with the same gpa. They have to distinguish them. Generally, distinguishing between majors is quite popular. High gpa in Engineering or Economics? Great. High gpa in Fashion Merchandising? Hmmm. Hard sciences stand out because so few applicants majored in the hard sciences. Criminal Justice is an odd major because I'm sure that some college students think it will help. It doesn't. Unless you want to be in law enforcement, major in something else.
4. Admissions committees respect work experience. Not really. Not unless your work experience is really interesting or amazing. Then the experience stands out as an interesting or amazing thing on your resume, not because it is work experience. I find it interesting when applicants were in Teach for America, Americorps, Jesuit Volunteer Corps, or the Peace Corps. Or people who followed a dream for awhile. But no one ever says, "Given this applicant's outstanding record of service for the past two years at [Name your favorite retailer], I think he/she would be an excellent J.D. candidate."
5. You can always take the LSAT again. I'm probably the only person who believed this myth, but I'll put it here anyway. I was advised to take the LSAT without taking a prep. If I did poorly, I could always take a prep class and take the LSAT over. Well, this could have been a disaster for me if I didn't have some weird, LSAT-type mind that luckily took to the standardized test like a duck on a June bug. If not, then I would have been hosed because most, if not all, schools average your LSAT. Oh, we look at both the LSATs, but we know that the average LSAT is the one reported to the all-powerful USNWR. So, take an LSAT prep!! Yes, I know how expensive they are. Start saving now. This is probably the single most important investment you can make in your application. Unfortunately, lots of other applicants are taking a prep course, so that ratchets up the scores. Sorry.

I would modify number 5. I don't think it's vital to take a test prep course, per se; however, it is vital to take the LSAT seriously, prepare, and do the best you possibly can. That may require a test prep course, but it may not. If a bright applicant is unphased by standardized tests, it's likely that he or she would be best served by simply ordering the big packet of past tests from LSAC and practicing the test questions, especially under simulated test conditions. Many of those same people really do waste their money on test prep courses, especially the part of the course (in some instances the major component of the course) that give clues on how to game the test (e.g., how to choose which questions to skip; which types of answers are the "best" guesses if you just don't know; pick C if you have no idea; etc.). That's just not helpful and is a waste of money, if you actually have the potential to answer every question knowledgeably and correctly. I don't mean to suggest that all test prep courses are worthless by any means; they're just not necessary or sufficient for many people.

Transferring from a City collge into a private university will not neccesarily hurt your chances (IMO). First, transfering once from a city school to a private institution can hardly constitute as "a lot of moving around." If your decision is well grounded i.e. you explain in your personal statement the financial restraints you faced in your undergrad career, this path will probably not be looked down upon. Indeed, I took this route, and got into a great law school, and excelled. When I interviewed at law firms, no one asked, nor really cared whether my resume included a complete list of institutions I had attended.
Second, when law schools report who their feeder schools are, they will report your graduating undergraduate instintution, and do not have to report the one city college or array of schools the student attended. Also, if you have a high GPA, this GPA is not qualified when the law school reports their median means etc to USNEWS. Boosting their GPA for USNEWS/ranking purposes makes a big difference to law schools--regardless of what they otherwise may say. So, if you go to a non-ivy, get a 4.0 and get high 160's on your LSAT, the fact that your undergrad institution produces students who score in the bottom 10% in the lsat will only paint you more as a standout student.
I would say that going to a IVY undergrad, and doing well there, will of course give you an advantage. Particularly when applying to top 10 schools. However, I felt compelled to post my view of the otherside of this coin.
3. Posted by Christine on May 31, 2005 @ 10:06 | Permalink
Jay, everything you say is true, to a point. A few points, though. First, a city college is not the same as a community college or a junior college. Second, when I wrote of moving around, I was actually thinking of the applicants that I saw that went to 4 or 5 schools, not two. I have not heard anyone disparage someone who transferred once. Third, none of this matters if you have a really good LSAT, but all of this matters if you are one of a zillion applicants in the 50th percentile of the LSA with a 3.4. Then, everything matters.
And yes, gpas are reported to the USNWR with no discount, which would tend to make you believe that admissions committees would not care where the gpa came from. But again, this advice comes into play when a committee is judging applicants with fungible gpas and LSATs. If your LSAT pulls you out of that fungible pile, then you could have majored in interpretive dance at Christy Hurt Community College of 83rd Street and gotten into this law school. However, you may then be in a different fungible pile for a Top 10 school.
I guess my main point is that your undergraduate school does matter on the margin.

Jamie, I agree with you. That was exactly the approach I took to the LSAT. I was a very poor undergrad, and I didn't have the money for a prep course.
5. Posted by Laura on May 31, 2005 @ 11:14 | Permalink
Just wanted to add my agreement to Gordon and Jamie that you do not have to take a prep course. When I was preparing for the LSAT (not so long ago), I was post-college and making only $18K, and thus could not afford the big course. Instead, I purchased a couple of LSAT prep books with sample tests and practiced every single night for the two months leading up to the test, and did very well. It does take some discipline, but poorer students should not feel obligated to fork over cash to Princeton Review or Stanley Kaplan.

Christine, What sort of information can we reasonably expect from GPAs? Not only is there great variation from major to major and school to school, but grade inflation has become so rampant in undergraduate programs that I find GPAs almost meaningless.
7. Posted by Christine on May 31, 2005 @ 11:28 | Permalink
First to answer Gordon's question, I view a high gpa as a "sine qua non." If you can't figure out how to get a good gpa these days, then I'm not sure what problem-solving skills you have. So, I basically discount poor gpas rather heavily unless there is a reason. The worst thing for me is if someone's major gpa is lower than their overall gpa. Change your major. I don't think that hitting one's head against a wall is a good quality in an attorney. (Obviously, engineering is a different story if the grades in that department are severely depressed.)
Second, I would still encourage my kids to take an LSAT review. We lucked out. However, we probably did well on the SAT, too. But, I think when Gordon and I took the LSAT, a lower percentage of test-takers took the prep. Now, I think there is an arms race mentality.
8. Posted by Gordon Smith on May 31, 2005 @ 11:40 | Permalink
GPA as disqualifier makes some sense. I can see that.
But I am not sure about major GPA v. other GPA. I assume that most people take more advanced classes in their major than outside. It might be quite easy to ace general ed classes, but more difficult to ace advanced classes in your major. Depending on the major, of course.

You seem to be under the impression that partying and "good schools" are exclusive. Without fail, all of my colleagues from "Ivies" have admitted to being drunk for at least one semester. In fact, the Ivies are notorious for grade inflation, because, perhaps, the professors (or rather, their research assistants) are keenly aware of the importance of getting a high GPA regardless of how intellectually curious or "caring" one is. Unless and until people start seriously trying to *double blind* grade undergraduate work, UGPAs will be nothing more than a reflection of who you can schmooze or sleep with.
Your point about the number of schools someone attends is too vague. In fact, most students at law school have at least two transcripts (even if one is from summer classes.) The reason that people who start at community colleges never make it to become professors, is that they probably are just from a different social class then people who will become law professors. Let's face it: if your parents make over $200,000/year, you don't NEED to save money by going to an Community College, and your parents think that a "good" school has more "value" than transferring. I know a lot of professors, and NONE of them came from families on public assistance.
I don't know what "lawyers are linear people" means. I worked at "BIGLAW" for 5 years. Very few of the people in my firm went straight from highschool to college to law school to BIGLAW. In between there was time teaching, clerking, working for the government, or surfing. We just like to tell people that we are linear. This must be one of those vague platitudes that people like to tell freshmen. Likewise, the Freshman year at a large research university has nothing in common with 1L.

I have worked in admissions for over a decade now. Most of what you say is modestly true, but you portray it as too black and white.
First of all, never - yes, absolutely never - is a GPA 'discredited' simply because of the average LSAT performance of other students at a particular school. Ever. A GPA is only 'discredited' when it is very high (e.g. 3.75+) and the LSAT score is very low (i.e. 145-). Otherwise, each applicant should get a fair spin of the wheel. No exceptions.
The reason for this is obvious - not all undergrads attend the 'top' schools, even if they are accepted to those schools. That is, idiots get into Ivies (legacies, anyone?), and stunningly gifted students often attend no-name state schools (poor people who can't afford to leave their jobs/families to go chasing a fancy name). Believe me, I've seen thousands of each in my time.
Secondly, if you like art, study art as an undergrad. If you like science, study science. There is nothing more boring than seeing a student who gets a great GPA in a hard major, but the reason they chose that major is to impress me. I'm impressed by those applicants who had the guts to study what they loved, instead of becoming standard political science major robots. I've also found that with the average four year degree these days, most students study about two years of general education requirements common to most majors. Give or take, obviously, but not by much. Anyone with a four year degree is adequately prepared for law school. Please, whatever you do, don't study something because you think it will help you get into law school. The only thing that will help you get into law school is showing me that you're passionate about your education. Nobody's passionate about political science. Stay off the sports degrees though.

Red Cross shelter ready for evacuees
WENATCHEE — Four members of a family from the scorched Tarpiscan Canyon area were the first evacuees to seek emergency relief in a shelter set up here Saturday by the Apple Valley Chapter of the American Red Cross.
The family arrived at the shelter Saturday evening to find a sleeping area, showers, meals and updates on the Colockum Tarps Fire, which has burned an estimated 10,000 acres, destroyed five homes and torched scores of outbuildings since it began Saturday morning. The family's names were not released.

I tried to print on a HP Laserjet 1005w via the print server provided
by the SMC Barricade Wireless Router 7004AWBR using Windows XP as
operating system.
However the print spooler always brings up a message that it wasn't
able print.
Do you know, if the Laserjet printer requires a bidirectional parallel
connection? And is it true that the Barricade router only has a one
way connection?
If so, can the Laserjet be configured to run without bidirectional
communication? Or can the Barricade Router be setup to run in
bidirectional mode?
I've already tried the following steps:
- Connected printer directly to the computer via parallel cable
=> works fine
- Installed the PRT mate port which comes on CDROM with the router
=> couldn't print. Well it's made for Win 2000, not XP
- Installed the SMC100 port from SMC:
=> couldn't print
- Setup a TCP/IP printer port as described in "How to install a LPR
printing port on WinXP":
=> couldn't print, neither with the "lp" nor the "LPT1" option
- Installed latest router firmware => no change
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanx a lot,

Burton European Open 2012: Halfpipe Finals
Words: T. Bird Photos: Danny Burrows The final day of the Burton European Open Presented by MINI was one for the ages. Snowboard contests are sometimes constrained by weather. Such is the nature of the sport. However, for four days straight here in Laax, Switzerland, we were graced with an endless blanket of blue above us, with little wind, and humongous amounts of snow. Laax offers one of the most beautiful vistas afforded by any resort in the world, and if coupled with a field of competitors that comprise the globe's best pipe riders, what happened on hill today was almost surreal. Between the panorama, the weather, and the riding, the European Open pipe finals were simply stunning. Ursina Haller, Yuki Furihata, Queralt Castellet, Sophie Rodriguez, Soko Yamaoka, Cilka Sadar, Gretchen Bleiler, and Kelly Clark comprised the women's field but following up an unbelievable women's slope final was no easy task. However, these ladies put on one of the best pipe finals of the year. Soko and Yuki's massive McTwists, Cilka's back-to-back sevens (and an insane alley oop Japan), Ursina's giant front nines on her first hit, Gretchen's run that I consider one of her all-time best, and Kelly's dominance provided the morning's entertainment. Kelly took the win, and cemented her sixteenth straight pipe victory, officially making her as dominant in halfpipe as Jamie Anderson is in slopestyle. Gretchen got second, and Yuki Furihata spun her way to third place to round out the podium. Oh yeah, and Kelly did a ten…again. She's simply remarkable in the pipe. After the women dropped, it was time for the men. The field was stacked with Manuel Pietropoli, Jan Scherrer, Tore Holvik, Hiroki Suwa, Christian Haller, Janne Korpi, Nathan Johnstone, fifteen year-old Tim-Kevin Ravnjak, Peetu Piiroinen (last year's pipe winner), Shuhei Osanai, Stale Sandbech, Fredrik Austbo, Danny Davis, Ryo Aono, Iouri Podladtchikov, and Markus Malin. Now, there was so much shit that went down in the tube that this web post would be too long if I were to list the afternoon's events in full, so I'll stick with the highlights. The biggest surprise was Peetu Piiroinen getting last place. He won the year prior, but his first hit was giving him problems and he failed to put down a run that could put him on the podium. Something tells me that will change in Stratton. Tim-Kevin Ravnjak is fifteen and threw his minute weight around all day and kept up with the adults. The kid's got a bright future in snowboarding. Mark my words. Danny Davis is still incredibly good, and his double corks look better than anyone else's, which is why he got second place. Ipod is a remarkable athlete, and he showed it today by coming through when it counted and garnering his first win at the Euro Open. Ryo Aono goes bigger than the rest of his peers on flat spins, and he got third place. Nathan Johnstone is set to break the hell out of his Southern Hemisphere bubble and leave an impact on the snowboard worls. Between what I witnessed at the World Snowboard Championships and his performance today, he's incredibly talented, and you'll soon find that out. Markus Malin has been around for quite a while, and he rode very well today, though he didn't make the podium. Tore Kolvik's second hit double corks were among the biggest I saw all day, and love it or hate it, a huge double cork (when not forced) is one of the more impressive things one can see firsthand. Christian Haller has killer style. Stale Sandbech fell on his first two runs but put down his third one for a top ten finish. There was so much more that went down in the Laax pipe, but that's what photos are for.

Very often, famous people do not continue their education after high school. There is no doubt that in our culture, the prospect of wealth and celebrity status almost always wins-out over the virtue of education. Below, we've put together a list of famous people who actually attended college at one point or another (despite many not finishing).
Steve Jobs
Steve Jobs graduated from high school in 1972 and while he started going to college at Reed College in Portland, Oregon he quickly dropped out after a single semester. Despite leaving, he occasionally audited classes at Reed College, most notably his well-known course in calligraphy. According to Jobs, "If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts."
Bill Gates
Bill Gates was accepted to Harvard University, one of the best business schools, after scoring a 1590 on the SAT exam. He attended Harvard from 1973 until he dropped out in 1975. It was at Harvard that he met a future Microsoft partner in Steve Ballmer. Gates was given an honorary degree from Harvard in 1997, but that doesn't really count, now does it;-)
Howard Stern
Unlike the two geniuses above, Howard Stern actually completed his college education at Boston University earning a degree in communications.
Warren Buffett
Warren Buffett actually never planned to go to college; out of high school, he was already earning a solid salary delivering newspapers. However, Buffett's father pressed the issue and convinced Buffett to attend Wharton Business School at the University of Pennsylvania. Buffett was not satisifed with the quality of education at Wharton and transferred to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln he graduated in only three years, despite working full time.
After undergrad, Buffett applied to Harvard Business School but his application was denied (they claimed he was too young!) Instead, Buffett settled on Columbia University for his grad studies where he met his influential mentors Ben Graham and David Dodd.
Barack Obama
Barack Obama attended Occidental College for two years before transferring to Columbia University where he majored in Political Science. He graduated in 1983 and proceeded to work in the private sector for five years, including three years working as a community organizer in Chicago. In 1988 he started graduate work at Harvard Law School where he became the first black president of the Harvard Law Review. Obama graduated with his J.D. from Harvard in 1991.
John McCain
John McCain attended the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis where he received a Bachelors of Science degree in marine engineering. He also did graduate work at the National War College from 1973-1974.
Joe Biden
Joe Biden studied at the University of Delaware in Newark where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree. While at the University of Delaware, Biden majored in both history and political science. Biden went to law school at the Syracuse University College of Law and proceeded to receive his J.D. in 1968.
Sarah Palin
Sarah Palin began her college experience at Hawaii Pacific College but after one semester she transferred to North Idaho community college where she was a general studies major. After two semesters, she transferred to the University of Idaho. After two semesters at U of I, she again transferred, this time going to Matanuska-Susitna community college in Alaska. After one semester, she transferred back to the University of Idaho where she spent her final three semesters working towards her Bachelor of Science degree in communications-journalism.
Jay Leno
Jay Leno received his bachelor's degree from Emerson College where he majored in speech therapy. Interestingly, Leno's high school guidance counselor recommended at one point that he drop out of high school, no less stay away from college. Rumor has it that this event motivated Leno to not only graduate from high school but to go on and get his college degree.
David Letterman
As everyone who watches Letterman knows, his Alma Mater is Ball State University. This fact is part of a recurring joke on the Late Show. Letterman had originally wanted to go to Indiana University but his poor performance in high school prevented him from doing so. While at Ball State, Letterman graduated with his bachelor's degree in broadcasting.
Julia Roberts
Julia Roberts attended Georgia State University where she studied to be a veterinarian. However, after graduating she was inspired by her brother to move to New York City and pursue a career in acting. In New York, Julia Roberts took acting classes and by the age of 22 was starring in a major motion picture.
Sandra Bullock
Sandra Bullock attended East Carolina University where she majored in drama. However, like many famous actors and actresses, Bullock did not complete her education, instead opting for an early career in acting.
Reese Witherspoon
Despite her thoughtful demeanor, Reese Witherspoon does not have a college degree. She attended Stanford University and majored in English Literature but did not finish her college education (she dropped out after one year to pursue a career in acting). Because of her performance in the movie Legally Blonde, many people mistakenly think that Witherspoon graduated from the prestigious Ivy League school Harvard.
Madonna studied at the University of Michigan for a degree in Modern dance. However, she was persuaded to leave college early to pursue a career in dance. She proceeded to work the New York City dance clubs and eventually got noticed as part of that scene.
Oprah Winfrey
Oprah Winfrey attended Tennessee State University on a full scholarship in the early 1970s. While in school, her focus was communication and she graduated with a degree in speech and drama.
Brad Pitt
Brad Pitt studied at the University of Missouri where he majored in journalism and advertising. He left the University of Missouri only two credits short of graduating to pursue a career in modeling and acting.
Steven Spielberg
Steven Spielberg began film school at USC's School of Theater but because of poor grades had to drop out. He then attended California State University at Long Beach where he majored in Film and Electronic Arts but did not initially finish his degree due to a successful internship at Universal Studios which led to a long-term contract. More than 30 years after beginning his college education, Spielberg earned his degree from CSU Long Beach.
Ben Stiller
Ben Stiller studied film at UCLA but only lasted one and a half semesters before dropping out in favor of pursuing an acting career in New York City. While at UCLA, Stiller was a popular entertainer at parties thrown by his fraternity Beta Theta Pi.
Adam Sandler
Adam Sandler went to New York University where he majored in Fine Arts; a common degree for those who want to pursue a career in acting. While at NYU, Sandler was well aware of his comedic genius and was a regular atseveral of New York's many comedy clubs. Sandler graduated from NYU in 1991 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree.
Tom Hanks
Tom Hanks majored in Theater at the Chabot College and California State University in Sacramento. His true passion was acting, and when he was offered a prestigious internship at the Great Lakes Theater Festival, he took the opportunity. However, the demanding nature of the internship required that he drop out of college and Hanks never received his degree.
Donald Trump
Donald Trump attended the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Finance where he majored in Economics, one of the top ten most popular degrees currently.. Since he had not yet achieved fame, Trump finished his education and graduated, receiving his degree in 1968.
Tiger Woods
Tiger Woods went to the prestigious Stanford University where he majored in Economics. He left college after two years to begin his career in pro golf, despite his father's earlier commitment to see his son get his degree from Stanford.
Shaquille O'Neal
Shaquille O'Neal attended Louisiana State University where he was a dominant college basketball player. Apparently Shaq could not decide on a specific major and instead earned his degree in General Studies which he received in 2000.
Michael Jordan
Michael Jordan went to the University of North Carolina where he majored in Geography. While Jordan left UNC early to enter the NBA, he eventually returned in to finish his education and receive his degree.
George Clooney
George Clooney went to both Northern Kentucky University and The University of Cincinnati where he majored in Broadcasting. There are unconfirmed rumors (started by Clooney himself) that Clooney was thrown out of school for drinking too much and doing drugs.
Matt Damon
Matt Damon went to Harvard University where he majored in English. While at Harvard, Damon pursued a relatively successful acting career (with roles in major Hollywood films) and eventually dropped out without completing his education.
Sean (Diddy) Combs
Sean Combs attended Howard University in Washington, DC where he majored in business. While at Howard, he became an intern at Uptown Records and eventually dropped out of Howard University in favor of a full time high-level position with the record label. Combs did not complete his education and still has not received his degree.
Advance Your Career With An Online Degree
That was really interesting, thanks for this. It's amazing that some of the most successful people out there never finished their degrees!
Most of these people are plonkers. Looks like it started at an early age if you check out the photos.
wow it's amazing how your some of them look especially Donald trump I can't believe he had the same hair cut then as he does now LMAO!
WOW!!! Some useful information!!! THANKS!!! =D
you forgot Conan O'Brien, who graduated from Harvard.
WOW, you really believe that was Donald Trump in College. Hmmm, no. That was about 15 years ago and the photo was probably a Board of Directors Photo. he did not always have "The Combover"
I was amazed at Sarah Palin's esteemed Community College career. If I would have known back then in Jr College that I could possibly be president even if I didn't try or apply myself, I would have really considered a political post. And here I thought to be president you had to be qualified with a degree in Law from Harvard or Yale like like McCai….oh never mind he went to the Naval Academy.
(A degree in Marine engineering will help in being president, won't it?)
We do know that Barak Obama couldn't be qualified with, whats his silly degree?

Oh, is that all!
So Howard Stern has a college degree but Tiger Woods does not. Makes ya think.
So what if Howard Stern has a college degree and Tiger woods doesn't.. it doesn't mean that Tiger Woods is not capable of finishing his degree, he just opted to pursue what he loves, which turns out pretty damn good for him!
palin is pretty. so is madonna.
Good stuff! Looks like if actors want to be successful, they should drop out of college. Try explaining that to Mom and Dad.
For few seconds I was mistaken that p.diddy attended Harvard. I was shocked
Brad Pitt left school with only two credits to go? What an idiot to spend all that time, money and effort to piss it all away so close to the end!
Formal education is and will always be an asset to anyone who is willing to learn. HOWEVER it is a minsnomer that it is required in life to succeed. Moms and Dads these days seem to parrot to their children that if you don't have an education you'll never make it in this world. How false and unfair to the person who has more insight about themselves to refuse college for other creative endevours. Perhaps for the majority it gives an edge, but for many, college is just not the mode of learning that fits that individual the best. I graduated from UC Berkeley, one son will soon graduate from USC, another has a high school degree and trains college graduates with business degrees to perform the high paying job he got started at age eighteen. Open your eyes and your minds, people! College is often wonderful and yet it is not necessary as you can see by the list above.
weird al has a degree in architecture
I am always amazed at the people that will try to say that a degree doesn't help a person to succeed. These people are the exception not the rule. Get a degree= live better than most that don't.
Same old scenario…..early sacrifice = long term success
hi sarah palin i love you !!!!!!!!!! xxxxxxxxx from vogue o'meara
I concur that it is intriguing to find out that so many influential people did not or have yet to finish a college education. Thanks for this list. It was rather informative and entertaining. -TAS

When you take an overnight train you get up to two extra days on the slopes. Most ski holidays involve an early-morning charter flight. But, however early you set your alarm clock, you won't get to ski that day. Your 7-night holiday is really a 6-day one.
Instead of getting up early on a Saturday morning, you can take the train on Friday evening. You'll arrive in resort just in time for the first lift. And – because Saturday is the main transfer day in most resorts – you'll enjoy a full day on the slopes without the usual crowds.

Why '22 Jump Street' Shows True Bromance
A lot of us groan when we think of comedy sequels, and Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the directors behind a string of comedy blockbusters ("The Lego Movie," "21 Jump Street") know this all too well. Their latest, "22 Jump Street," opened this weekend to as-expected big box office numbers, and it knows how much audiences these days like being in on the joke. Sequels, the movie suggests, are dumber, more expensive, and just plain cynical ways for Hollywood execs to cash in on the success of first movies. Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum reprise their roles as officers Schmidt and Jenko, two guys in their 30s who pose as college students but aren't really fooling anyone.
A lot of the humor in "22 Jump Street" centers on the relationship between Jenko and Schmidt, who share a particularly strong bond in the movie, one with seemingly all the trappings of a romantic relationship minus the sex. In light of Jonah Hill's recent apology for using a gay slur when accosted by an aggressive papar-nazi, some critics have taken to calling out the movie for what they perceive as its underlying homophobia (or "meta-homophobia," as one critic calls it).
For me, "22 Jump Street" is part of a recent spate of movies ("I Love You, Man," most Judd Apatow movies) portraying just how far straight men have come when it comes to being in touch with their feelings and being able to express genuine emotion for each other. If anything, these movies seem to be making fun of homophobia, suggesting our longstanding aversion to straight guys showing affection for each other is silly and outdated. Sure, it's funny when Jenko tells Schmidt that maybe they "should be investigating different people" or when he applies sunscreen to his partner's neck. But is it funny because two men are saying and doing these things to each other, or is it more funny that we are still freaked out by this at all? There's no denying that the bond between Jenko and Schmidt is real. The emotions, the jealousy, the tenderness–are all genuine. The movie doesn't make fun of their intimacy—if we're laughing, or are made uncomfortable by it, isn't that more of a reflection of how we still have some progress to make?
Twenty to thirty years ago, movies like this didn't exist. In the 80s and 90s, homophobic humor was so blatant and common (think "Revenge of the Nerds,"most Wayans brothers movies, the god-awful "Braveheart") that it wasn't even thought of as offensive. Whenever two men got close in these kind of buddy movies—if there was ever a moment where they seemed to cross the line—both men would back off and immediately reassert their hetero creds.("Lethal Weapon," anyone?) Even a recent and seemingly innocuous movie such as "Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay" was filled with gay slurs.
Straight men have evolved. They don't seem nearly as afraid of being perceived as gay anymore, and many see no problem with expressing affection—even physical affection—with each other. We can thank James Franco for that. Say what you will about Franco, but his insistence, as a hetero man, on taking on gay projects and his casual refusal to dismiss gay rumors may have paved the way for other men to abandon their macho posturing. Of course these notions are still relatively new to us, so naturally they're still being played for laughs. But there's no denying that the truly intimate relationships in "22 Jump Street" are between the men: It's not Jenko that's jealous when Schmidt hooks up with Captain Dickson's (Ice Cube) daughter, but rather Schmidt that's jealous when Jenko seems to leave him for sexy quarterback Zook (Wyatt Russell).
These bro-mantic comedies are heartening. They might help straight men become more tolerant and embrace their sensitive sides. Is some of the humor crude? Of course it is. This is a mainstream, big Hollywood comedy. It's target audience is 16-24 year-old males. All things considered, it's a pretty smart, savvy film—far smarter and culturally sensitive than the films I was subject to as a sixteen-year-old.

Stuffed Green Bell Peppers
2 Large Green Peppers
1 cup Cooked Rice
1 Turkey Breast
1 small onion
1/4 c. mushrooms
2 small tomatoes
3 T. cream cheese
1/2 c. fresh chopped spinach
1/4 c. White wine
Pre-heat oven 350 degrees.
Boil the green peppers for 3-4min.- Set aside
Cook your rice- set aside (I just use minute rice)
Cut turkey into small pieces and cook in fry pan until done- set aside
In the same pan add chopped onion, mushrooms, tomatoes & spinach.
Cook until the onion get a little transparent.
Then add the white wine & cream cheese mix until cheese is smooth
And wine boils mostly out- but mixture is still creamy.
Add turkey meat & rice to mixture.
Stuff the peppers with the mixture & bake for 30 min.
This was the first time I made these- My family seemed to like them
I kind of just made it up as I went. I think that is the cool thing about
recipes like this, you can let your imagination go and put what you
like in it.
Crock-Pot Pork Roast
1 Pork Roast
4 Carrots
4 Parsnips
1 Onion
3 Tomatoes
1/2 Cup White Wine
4 Gloves Garlic
Olive Oil
Cover bottom of fry pan with olive oil- sear pork roast on both sides
Put the brown pork roast in crock pot
Chop up the
Put in hot oil along with the wine.
Cook- until wine cooks out & it gets kind of thick
Add the tomato mixture on top of meat in crock pot
Cut carrots and parsnips in 1/2-1 inch pieces
Add to crock pot.
That is it-put the lid on cook on low for about 9 hrs.
Or if you want to go a little faster kick it up to high for
about 4 hrs.
Honestly I have always added water to everything that I
cook in a crock pot. What I have learned is that all that does
is make a kind of watery, oily meal. When you do not add any
liquid the meat cooks in nothing but the meats juices.
It is so juicy and yummy!
Hope you enjoy!!

2 Portabella Mushrooms
1/2 Red Pepper

Creamy Stuffed Chicken
This chicken will be a hit with your family. It is a quick and easy way to make chicken. But it looks and tastes like you really worked hard at it.
4 Boneless/Skinless Chicken Breast
4oz. Cream Cheese
3 Green Onions
2 Garlic Gloves
2 t. dried Parsley
4 Pieces Bacon
Preheat oven 350 degrees
Wash and dry the chicken breasts

Bake uncover 350 degrees 1 hour
Beer Can Chicken
This recipe is one of the easiest recipes there is. You have to really try to mess it up. The chicken always turns out moist and yummy.
1 16oz. Can of Cheap Beer
1 4-5lb Chicken
1 t. Salt
1 t. Pepper
2 t. Garlic
1 t. Ground Thyme
2-4 Bay Leaves
2-3 T. Olive Oil
Preheat 350 degrees
Wash and dry a whole chicken
Mix the olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, ground thyme

under then skin of the chicken breasts
Empty about 1/4 of the can of beer out
Poke 3 holes around the top edge of the can
Set the can in the middle of a baking pan
Slid the chicken right over the top of the can
Push the chicken down as far as it will go
Put a tinfoil tent over the top of it with all edges sealed tightly around the pan, shiny side of the tin foil out.
Put in oven for about an hour
Take it out of the oven and let it sit for 10 minutes (with tinfoil on)
When you take the tin foil off be very careful it will be full of steam and it is easy to get burned.
Also carefully take chicken of the can and remove the bay leaves from under the skin.
Chicken is so good cooked this way and it will fall right off the bone.
I hope you enjoy.
