Earlier today we brought you 20 through 11 in our highly scientific ranking of the top sports radio callers in Oklahoma City history. Now it's time to finish up the list. The top ten is after the jump.
10. Effie
Who didn't love Effie? She was an adorable old lady who would begin each call with "This is Effie," and then proceed talk about local sports and Sherri Coale for 10 minutes. Not to be a downer or anything, but she sadly passed away a couple of years ago.
9. Paintbrush
Has been around forever. I really stopped listening to sports radio a few years back, but the last time I heard him his schtick was calling into show and re-creating the play-by-play of famous plays from OU history. Real fascinating radio. He would even scream out "JIMINY CHRISTMAS" like John Brooks.
As we established a couple weeks ago with my preposterously exhaustive research on the history of sports radio in Oklahoma City, I grew up listening sports radio in this town. Morning, news, and night. When other kids were learning to play the piano or play soccer or develop social skills or do anything, really, that would benefit their lives at some point down the road, that is what I would do.
A sports radio junkie doesn't just listen to the hosts; you also get to know the callers almost as well as the hosts. Today I thought we'd take a trip down memory lane and rank some of the best callers in sports radio history. I consulted with Patrick, who has lived a similarly sad existence, and we came up with this list of the top 20 OKC sports radio callers in history. Part one is below the jump, and part two will be posted later today.

Tonight, we will embark on the 6th season of Thunder basketball, and tomorrow will mark the 8th year since the Chris Paul led Hornets hosted the Sacramento Kings on opening night back in 2005. That should make you feel old.
With tonight being opening night, I thought I would give a quick refresher course on 10 things you need to know going into tonight's season opener. It reviews some of the storylines of the off-season and what you can expect to see from this year's team. It's more for a casual fan than a hardcore basketball junkie – think of it as a Cliff's Notes season preview – but is still worth reading for the YouTube clips alone.
1. Yes, Russell Westbrook is STILL INJURED!
Yes, Russell Westbrook will be missing the first 4-6 weeks of the season, as the doctors had to go back and repair the meniscus tear in his knee. But don't worry, the injury shouldn't slow him down. (Here's an interview explaining the repair, if you're interested.)
2. Kevin Martin is gone.
Put bluntly, the Thunder knew that getting Kevin Martin would be a one year rental the second that they traded for him. If they were to stay under the much feared "Luxury Tax" and keep Kendrick Perkins, they couldn't spend more than a few million dollars. And that money was earmarked for their new draft picks. Thus, the Thunder said sayonara to Kevin Martin, and any free agent that asked more than the minimum.
3. Kevin Martin's Replacement is some guy named Jeremy Lamb.
Here's the bad news: Jeremy Lamb averaged 37% shooting during the Pre-Season, and 17% from three. Here's the good news: The Pre-Season is entirely meaningless. Case in point: Perry Jones lit up the floor during last year's Pre-Season, and Scott Brooks insinuated that he would get 10-12 minutes a game. He never saw the floor. Also, when the Hornets were in their 2006 Pre-Season, a Polish man named Macej Lampe has something like 20 points and 10 rebounds.* But he too never saw the floor and was out of the NBA by the end of the season. So we can really only judge whether Lamb will succeed when he hits the actual NBA floor, though I'm not holding my breath for anything spectacular.
*That fact was completely stolen from Clark Matthews.
In case you missed it, OU and Texas both unveiled new gold-plated uniforms that will be worn in Saturday's Red River Rivalry. No, that's not the beginning to one of the best OU – Texas jokes on the Internet. It's real.
Here's a pic of the bedazzled uniforms:
Anyway, the Red River Rivalry is a long and storied tradition that was started to give fans of both teams the chance to tell the same jokes, but with different teams at the butt of joke. When the jokes didn't do very well, the students were forced to pull pranks, like branding the Texas Longhorn "Bo" with the score 13-0. The Texas students then rebranded it to read, "BevO." Interesting huh? Oh, the Texas team also killed and ate that steer.
Some other interesting facts: Both head coaches make roughly $5 million a year. They each have one national championship. And they both have stupid looking pinkies (Stoops is caused by genetics, Brown's from making the damn Hook'em Horns sign for the past 15 years).
After the jump I'll provide you with the best jokes floating around the internet!
So, there's this guy. His name is Russell Westbrook. you might know him. He plays point guard for the Oklahoma City Thunder, and is considered to be one of the NBA's best players, no holds barred. Above you'll see a photo of him on draft night, in 2008. He looks like pretty much any other NBA Draftee. You'll notice the sheepish grin, the ill-fitting suit, the professional as possible tie, and the soon-to-be-outdated Sonics hat. But one thing really stands out about that strapping young lad. That glint in his eye. Something tells you that this is as guy who wants it all. And it's almost certain that it all won't come on a basketball court.
Fast forward to 2013, and Russell Westbrook has become the NBA's most prominent fashion icon since Dennis Rodman. He's appeared in ESPN the Magazine, GQ, VMAN, Vogue, and the New York Times, on all occasions solely for his fashion interests. (He's yet to appear in the legendary So6ix magazine, but that's probably because he knows about the curse.) I couldn't name a single other active player in any other major American sport that comes even close to the notoriety and bravado of Westbrook's style. The irony of it all is that Westbrook plays for a team in Oklahoma City, where fashion is about as important as who the Democratic candidate for senate is going to be.
In the spirit of Westbrook's fashion achievements, I'm here to bring you his greatest outfits. They will be graded in three categories: Creativity, Plausibility (in other words, how well the outfit works for everyday wear), and Memorability. The photo with the highest total score wins. Also, before we begin, I think it's important to disclose that THIS is my idea of excellent fashion. Moving on, here's to you, Russ!
10. The Hillbilly Homage
Creativity: 2
Plausibility: 8
Memorability: 9
Personally, I absolutely despise this outfit. Mainly because it's something you'd only seen worn by rednecks who don't take showers and drive 40-year-old pickup trucks. But, somehow, Westbrook messes with your perception here. He brands it with some ultra-chic semi-transparent horn-rimmed specs, and stands in front of a futuristic wallpaper. Basically, you're looking at a strange dichotomy that somehow finds a way to blend together through color.
9. Vladimir
Creativity: 9
Plausibility: 3
Memorability: 8
How many jackets can one man wear? That's the question Russell Westbrook attempted to answer with this outfit. It's hard to tell what's going on exactly, but the high collar and the black capeish looking thing on the second layer make me thing he's a vampire. That, and the extremely intense glare he's giving me. Capping off this photo is a Nike basketball turned upside down, because Westbrook is signed with Jordan bland.
Thanks! Your message has been sent!

I have had to call another local company to look at the problem and address the issues I have, they have confirmed it is a warranty issue and have been dealing with this problem with the MFG and will have to do the install.

I had an interesting encounter at a restaurant over the weekend. We only had one teen, the toddler and baby with us.
I was in the restroom changing Kian when a woman in her mid 60's (she told me her age during the conversation) asked about Kian. She fosters baby's and toddlers. I was telling her that he was our 9th and last bio child. Her first reaction was "whoa that's a lot of kids" then she was like "what am I talking about, I'm one of eight!" it's amazing how much society's perception has changed in such a relatively short time. She then went on to ask why I would stop having them at only 40! She would like to adopt the 2 she's fostering now, but can't because of age.
Anyway it was a pleasant conversation. And I think she was reminded that large families aren't so bad. ;)
Edit for spelling.

Action for Equality (AFE) is the foremost programme of Equal Community Foundation that reaches 40,000 people in 20 communities all over Pune. It is an action research programme that seeks to develop a scalable model for raising men to end violence against women in India.
The programme primarily focuses on men in the age group of 14-17 years from low-income communities.
Through Action for Equality we aim to develop leaders who not just take personal action but also take collective action to end violence and discrimination against women in their lives and communities. These leaders then go on to influence groups of parents, teachers and media to raise other men to end violence and discrimination against women.
The programme model is designed on the principle that if men study and debate the value of women with others that they trust, and if they are supported with tools to manage their behaviour by role models that they respect, then they will:
• Reduce their own violent and discriminating behaviour;
• Advocate an end to end violence and discrimination by their peers and others;
• Take personal and collective action to empower women;
Thereby accelerating progress towards equality by reducing the amount of violence and discrimination women face, and increasing the resources within a community that are dedicated to empowering women.
As of May 2015, 3478 young men have enrolled in Action for Equality Programme, 1683 young men have graduated from the AfE-Graduate Programme, and out of them 750 young men continue participating as volunteers.
61% women who live with the graduates have reported a reduction in experience of violence and discrimination at the hands of the graduates.

Abstract[1] Albedo derived from MODIS observations is found to be very stable during November 2000-January 2001. We analyze shortwave albedo under snow and snow-free conditions by IGBP land cover types. Snow changes the spectral property of the surface reflectivity and causes high heterogeneity in the surface albedo between and within land types. The mean black sky (or direct beam) albedo at local solar noon for snow-covered forests is less than 0.30 in the shortwave (0.3-5.0 mum), but it reaches 0.57 for snow-covered grassland and barren. Although we are unable to further separate within-class albedos with fractional tree cover, we find that the normalized difference snow index (NDSI) is highly correlated with surface albedo and hence can be taken as a measure of snow, soil and canopy fraction.

Thursday Jan. 15, 2009
ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Jim Haslett has been eliminated from consideration for the St. Louis Rams' coaching job.
The interim head coach was 2-10 after being elevated from defensive coordinator when Scott Linehan was fired following an 0-4 start. General manager Billy Devaney said before interviewing candidates that Haslett, a former NFL coach of the year with the Saints, would be a finalist.
"Jim took over an impossible situation," Devaney said. "He kept the team focused and playing hard and, as an organization, we are much better off for his contribution.
"We decided that, after going through the interview process and in the spirit of that process, it was best to let Jim know that we are going to go in a new direction."

I believe I was ripped off through Amazon because I order almost exclusively through them. I have notified Amazon of this apparent problem and asked them to be removed from their listing sponsorship.
I don't know what to do to get my $ back. I asked Amazon to step in but I know they aren't responsible for my loss. If there's any way I can fight back I'd like to be notified. I'm not a wealthy person and that $9.95 has shorted me for the week.

ASUS GTX 980 Ti STRIX OC Review
The ASUS GTX 980 Ti STRIX OC may have been launched a bit later than its competitors but the wait was worth it. This may be the best GTX 980 Ti currently available.
The ASUS GTX 980 Ti STRIX OC may have been launched a bit later than its competitors but the wait was worth it. This may be the best GTX 980 Ti currently available.
The ASUS Z170-A may be one of the most affordable Skylake motherboards but its feature set and overclocking abilities are nothing short of impressive.
The ASUS X99 Sabertooth has everything you could possibly want in a motherboard. It has high grade components, a mature BIOS, great automatic overclocking and a laundry list of must-have features.
ASUS' DirectCU heatsinks are some of the best around and the third generation gets its reveal on NVIDIA's GTX 980 Ti. ASUS also had a unique new keyboard on display dubbed the Claymore. After teaser shots lit up the enthusiast world, ASUS' GTX 980 Ti STRIX with the DirectCU III heatsink was finally revealed at [...]
An affordable price and great features aren't typically combined on X99 motherboards but ASUS' X99-A offers both in a package that looks great and overclocks Haswell-E processors well.
The GTX 960 is a polarizing graphics card but we have five of the best models on the market going head to head. These may just change your opinion of NVIDIA's latest GPU.
The X99-PRO seems to combine most of the X99-Deluxe's features and overclocking potential into a package that's more affordable. However, that lower price does hide several areas that have been cut back.
The ASUS Z97 lineup has a ton of models in it but the Maximus VII Formula arguably has the best combination of gaming features and price.
ASUS' upcoming MG279Q is a monitor that targets the gaming market with a 120Hz refresh rate but with an IPS panel it also caters to those who are discerning enough to care about color reproduction and contrast levels. It used to be that gamers had to make a choice; either buy a fast TN panel and [...]
ASUS has announced what may be the holy trinity of gaming monitors: a 27″ 4K UHD display with a color-accurate IPS panel and NVIDIA's G-SYNC technology. Gamers have been waiting for a 4K display that sports G-SYNC technology and ASUS seems to have delivered in a big way with their ROG Swift PG27AQ. However, not [...]

More than 54,000 homeowners in Western New York are about to forego a $500 gift from New York State. There is still a little time, however, to claim the windfall. All it will take is a few clicks of a computer mouse or a phone call.
What is this manna from heaven? It's the basic STAR property tax exemption, available to those earning less than $500,000 and who own and live in their homes. But this present from Albany to the state's overtaxed homeowners won't be delivered to those who fail to act by the Tuesday deadline to re-register.
There is real money at stake. The average statewide annual STAR savings on property taxes is $700. Locally, the savings average $493 in Erie County and $600 in Niagara County. In Westchester County, which has the state's highest property tax bills, the average STAR savings amounts to a hefty $1,756 per homeowner.
This re-registration requirement is occurring because the state is trying to cut out those who have been gaming the system.
State officials uncovered about $13 million in fraudulent or false filings from 2011-12, and launched the one-time re-registration program for those already receiving the exemption on their primary residence in order to weed out the cheaters.
A concerted effort is under way to inform homeowners about the looming deadline. The state's Department of Taxation and Finance has put out reminders, months ago mailing letters to homeowners with basic STAR exemptions. The letter has a unique code for homeowners to use to register. The code also can be accessed online through the STAR registration website, tax.ny.gov, or by calling (518) 457-2036.
State elected officials also have made appearances at public gatherings to let people know and have sent notices in the mail. The media, including The News, have posted stories about the deadline. And the state is making robocalls to homeowners who have yet to sign up.
Despite that effort, response has been disappointing, although a recent call to the help line indicated increased traffic.
Phone lines should be jammed and the website crashing … well, maybe not that much. But for those last-minute filers, the state has expanded its hours for assistance. Representatives will be available Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m., and on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Gifts from Albany don't come often. Don't let this one go to waste.

Moutinho, who joined the wealthy promoted side from FC Porto for 25 million euros ($33.13 million) in the close season, travelled to Bordeaux last week for their league opener but was not fit enough to play in Monaco's 2-0 victory.
"Hopefully, he'll be available next weekend," Ranieri told a news conference ahead of Sunday's home match against Montpelier.
The Italian coach also confirmed media reports that the principality club was targeting Sampdoria's Argentina goalkeeper Sergio Romero to compete with first choice Danijel Subasic, who whose form was inconsistant in the second division last season.
"We need a goalkeeper. I hope we'll strike a deal but nothing is done yet," Ranieri said.
Big-spending Monaco, owned by Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev, have splashed out about 150 million euros to bring in top players including Colombia striker Radamel Falcao from Atletico Madrid plus Moutinho and James Rodriguez from Porto.

Ah, so my first guess was right. I wonder if is offended by the weak comparison?
Les gives him a weak smile. "That is interesting. I would guess then, that you are the seventh child and your brother is the sixth? That is quite a big family."
The skinny Githyanki pushes herself up from the bar, leaving the mostly empty chalice on the countertop. "Sitting seems like a good idea. I would like to learn more about this errant brother of yours. Perhaps your newfound companion would like to join us?" Les looks to Krulk and quirks an eyebrow before striding to the empty table.
She tips the chair back and props both her booted feet upon the table's scarred wooden surface. "I suppose my next question is for an exegesis on your brother. I am yet young but have seen quite a bit of the islands already and know my share of lore. Some say we Gith have a natural affinity for picking up information on the strangest places."

7 Rabbit laughs out loud. "I have a friend named 13 Rain. That would be a large family!" He takes his drink over to the table. "No, I have a calendar name. I am named after the day of my birth. It is common where I am from, although not everyone is named that way." He sighs. "Because you are confused, I assume that is not very common here. That will make my task more difficult."
"I am sorry. I started talking to myself. What does 'exigesis' mean? I am sorry, but I do not know the word."
Saturday, 22nd November, 2008, 09:37 PM #163
Seems I am not so wise after all. I would never have thought it was based around the day of birth...I wonder if there are many issues with name cross-overs?
"No, it is not very common. At least not in Daumon or where I come from. However, it seems that rather than hindering your search that it would cause it to be more simplified. A name such as Six Eagle would surely stand out to innkeeps and barkeeps in the city.
After Seven Rabbit asks his question, Les opens her mouth and then closes it again. A brief smile crosses her face and she shakes her head at her own enigmatic phrases. "Of course, I am sorry. I find the use of rare words to be a pure eloquent pleasure. Even if it does make expatiating with me a bit difficult for most. I was simply asking you to evince..er..to clearly describe and discuss your brother.
Ex-eg-ees-is, Les speaks slowly and pronounces each syllable to make it more clear, is an explication or examination...although typically I suppose its used to refer to the analysis of religious texts. It's simply a pretty word and rolls of the tongue so well. The Allarian language is an beautiful language.
Anyway, I digress. If you would be kind enough to describe your brother, or at least his reasons for coming here, I may be able to help you locate him. However, before we continue, I should inquire...how exactly do you plan to find him? I would be glad to tender aid; but of course I can not offer such services for free, you understand."

Once again, the door to the tavern opens, showing a tall elf in full plate, wearing a white tabard and maroon cloak. He stands perfectly straight, almost military, as he walks over to the bar.
"Excuse me, barkeep. A glass of white wine, if you please," the elf asks, his voice smooth and melodic, a pleasure to listen to.
Now, if I recall correctly from my brief visit to Daunton, one announces their name and profession when they enter.
"I am Raiyek Meliam, paladin of Palladys, or Mireva, as the bright-eyed goddess is called locally. I am looking for exciting employment, and I have heard this is the place to look for it," he announces to the bar room as he waits for his drink. When it comes, he politely thanks the barkeep before turning to look around the tavern as he sips his wine. His posture is still ramrod straight as his sharp elven eyes take in all of the surrounding commotion. A group composed of a gith, two dwarves, and an ancient looking human catch his eye, his gaze lingering on them for some time.

Les looks at the newcomer and shakes her head. How come everyone insists on wearing their armor all the time. She puts her arms up over her head and stretches, enjoying the fact that her hide is packed securely back at her quarters in the Barracks. Hmm, did he say Palladys? That's what the Imperium calls Mireva. I wonder what brings a paladin from the Imperium here. Perhaps the same thing that brings so many of the others, a curiosity. That may be the only thing many of us in here share.
The gith continues to stare at the elf while her mind tumbles over its own inner monolgue, flitting sporadiclly between subjects and thoughts. Wait, wait a paladin? Oh this might not be all that good. Les suddenly sits up in her chair and swings her feet off the table. Her eyes widen slightly but then she looks away, concentrating on what Seven Rabbit is saying. Paladin's work for free don't they? I hope he doesn't notice us. Immediately following this thought is another realization that causes a gauche smile to briefly reach her lips. Ah, but he's from the Imperium. No way he will know much about the Isles. This could actually be useful..

As Raiyek continues to calmly survey the tavern, the gith's sudden movement catches his eye. He catches her quick glance at him, and her subsequent attempt to appear as though it never happened. The elf quirks one eyebrow as he studies the gith woman, taking another sip of his wine.
Well, it appears I've been noticed, he thinks with a mental chuckle. I didn't think I'd stand out that much in a crowd like this. Oh well, that's what I want, isn't it? Perhaps I should go and properly introduce myself. With a mental sigh he laments, I wish I knew the customs of this place better. I hate not knowing what one is expected to do.
His mind made up, the armored paladin strides over to the table the group has moved to. His movements are surprisingly fluid for someone wearing plate mail, suggesting a great familiarity with wearing armor or a natural agility belied by his heavy equipment, or perhaps both. He takes off his helmet as he walks up, the ponytail of his long black hair let loose to hang behind his head. Holding his helmet in the crook of his left elbow, he moves his chalice to his left hand as well before offering his right to the woman. "Raiyek Meliam. I do not believe we've had the pleasure of meeting. What name does an exotic woman like yourself go by?" The elf waits for her response, then asks if the group would mind if he sat.

Kruk had walked to the table with the dwarf and the mysterious lass. As the conversation begins at the table, Kruk listens intently for a few minutes, waiting for some chance of news or opprotunity to find something to sink his axe into, but does not. His mind and eyes wander and then lock on the spell caster sitting by himself. "Hmmm...what's he up to?", he thinks to himself.
Just then an elf in plate enters the bar and orders a drink. "Hmmm, another wine drinker I see," he states outloud to anyone. He eyes the elf as he approaches the table. As the elf speaks to the the lady Kruk slams the table with his fist and shouts "Well well well...this is a strange gathering indead!," then belts out a hearty laugh.

That odd dwarf may find himself in over his head, I fear... Cross thinks to himself. His own reasons for striking out into the world were also motivated by family matters, and he wonders if he lend this 7Rabbit fellow his aid. He seems a worthy enough fellow, but his strange dress and open demeanor seems to be drawing a crowd... I would hate to see him taken in by poor company. Perhaps if I were to make a show of "wealth", it would divert the attention of anyone with less than sterling intentions...
Cross stands to his full 6' height, making sure shade from the brim of his hat still conceals the bulk of his features. He raps his well-worn & beaten oak staff firmly upon the floor three times (and some more perceptive patronss may catch a growing scent of sulfur in the air, with each successive rap of his quarterstaff).
"Barkeep, I have recently come into a bit of good fortune, and wish to celebrate by buying a round for all those assembled here"
Cross makes a mental note of the crowd as they order their drinks from the tavern wenches, and waits for everyone to get their drinks before raising his glass in a toast...
"For the continued blessings of The Fjord"
With that Cross resumes his seat and waits...

Kruks announcement drew Less attention to the dwarf she had momentarily forgotten. A blatant warrior, but someone whose intentions were unknown to her. He had followed them to the table so he must wish to help the dwarf from the Valley of Bone. That made him an interesting person in Less book. Anyone willing to help a stranger for nothing is either naïve or has ulterior motives. When Kruk pointed out the elfs choice in drink Les can but smile wryly. White wine and a paladin, an interesting mix, she muses. As the elf approaches the table several thoughts run through her mind. Oh no, and, I wonder if his personality is as fruity as his drink, were among them.Originally Posted by dimsdale

Well, it looks like we have the good fortune to a free drink. I for one will not gainsay that! Feel free to sit with us, Raiyek. The dwarf to my right is Kruk, and the one to the left is Seven Rabbit. If you three tell me what you want, Ill go place the free order with the barkeep.

Just last week we were talking about Zac Efron's lead role in a vibrant, song-and-dance remake of Footloose, and now Entertainment Weekly has popped our colorful anticipation balloon with news that Efron pulled out of the film because he wants to establish more versatility with his acting career and feels one musical after another (High School Musical, Hairspray) isn't going to help.
On Zac's exit, Paramount (the studio behind the proposed remake) had this to say: "Footloose is a project we've longed to see re-booted for a new generation. While Zac is no longer attached, we remain excited and committed to the collective brain trust of Kenny Ortega, Neil Meron and Craig Zaden, who will reinvigorate the franchise. Their fresh take on the film will undoubtedly be filled with the same kind of breakout performances that we've come to expect from them."
I personally think it's for the best, even though I'm not sure who they'd cast in the lead role now. (Can Robert Pattinson sing and dance – because he's the only other actor with as much current "hot" appeal as Efron...) Zac, in my opinion, has the potential to become the next Brad Pitt. He knows it, we hide from it, but it's all right there in his looks, his charm and his passion to take his career in a new direction. And if his indie turn in Richard Linklater's Me and Orson Welles is any indication, there's definitely potential stuffed inside that chiseled package.
But now we need a new guy to strap on those Sunday shoes and dance the night away. Who should it be? What other young hot Hollywood boys have the legs and voice to carry this remake on their perfect little shoulders?

The Oresund Bridge is Malmö's most striking landmark, and is the longest road and rail bridge in Europe, measuring 5 miles in total. These symbols of modernity are typical of a Swedish city that was once heavily industrialised, but is now enjoying a growth in alternative forms of globalised trade. Malmö prides itself as one of the most sustainable cities in the world, due to projects like eco-housing. The social hub of the city resides in Gustav Adolf Square, Little Square and Big Square.

The "Wet Hot American Summer" Reunion Of Your Dreams
What if I told you that most of the original cast of "Wet Hot American Summer" have reunited over the past few days at the San Francisco Sketchfest to perform the film as a radio play — and you missed it? Well, tough luck, burger breath: it happened and you missed it. Now stop expressing disappointment in your gurnal, put away your fondled sweaters, and check out some photos from the event.
Many of the original "Wet Hot" cast members were in attendance at the SF Sketchfest: Paul Rudd, Amy Poehler, Christopher Meloni, Ken Marino, Molly Shannon, Michael Showalter, David Wain, Joe Lo Truglio, Samm Levine, and Michael Ian Black. But not all could make it (damn you again, Bradley Cooper!) and as such, the most awesome of people filled in: David Cross, Colin Hanks, Andy Richter, Busy Phillips, Gillian Jacobs, and so on. We're still waiting for any sort of video or audio to come from the event, but for now, these awesome pictures of awesome people will just have to do.
Coop: I want you inside me.
Katie: What did you say?
Coop: Oh hey, from before…

He physically assaulted his first son's mother while she was pregnant, stole her car for days, was unfaithful and stole and sold her valuables and belongings. During this time he also let an addiction problem run his life, which affected other people's lives. He is always claiming he is homeless and has no money. Really? No one is buying his "woo is me" story, he has been telling the same story for over 10 years now. He has been investigated and is not homeless and always has money, yet can never make a child support payment. His driver's license is suspended - yet he still drives, his passport has been revoked and the large arrearage owed in child support is now on his credit rating. Sounds like he is going down hill rather than on a road to success. Apparently, he never learned "do onto others, as you would want done to you". No one ever gets ahead taking advantage of people, period! One day Mr. Akins will be a very old man and regret his ignorant thinking, until then, people beaware of Mr. Akins, all he is about, is being a deadbeat parent and con artist.

There are a lot of children falling by the wayside in our communities and they are being bullied,┬Ābullying others, or even losing their lives because of it.┬Ā When I was coming up, the proper treatment for some child stepping out of line would be a belt, but more and more parents find that to be a bit too much.
WorldStarHipHop.com posted a video of a father disciplining his son in an old school way.┬Ā But, the video has sparked controversy and some are saying that the father should be arrested for his behavior.┬Ā The child obviously lives with his grandmother, who had enough of the child acting up in school and called on the boy's father to step in and get him in line.
Well, as you will see, the discipline includes:┬Ā hair shaving, eyebrow shaving, a butt beating with a belt, and a boot camp workout.┬Ā One professor at Howard University chimed in saying, ŌĆ£I think what heŌĆÖs doing is illegal and he should be arrested for it. I think it does fit into the category of psychological abuse,ŌĆØ said Dr. Ivory Toldson, associate professor at Howard University, senior research analyst for the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation and editor-in-chief of the Journal of Negro Education."
I will leave the┬Ācomments to you.┬Ā Do you feel that this form of punishment was over the top or do you agree with the author Jasiri X, that the father "was deeply concerned about his son" and is putting in the time to┬Ākeep his child out of jail or worse?┬Ā Check it out.

When I received our next company phone bill, I noticed a new section of long distance charges by a company I had never heard of: Integrated Services, billed by USBI. I immediately called the billing company listed, USBI, to ask what this was for. They said they could not tell me but transferred me to Integrated Services customer service. Upon being told by the customer svc. rep. Nikki that I had "agreed" to sign up for long distance service from Integrated Services, I said I certainly had not done so and requested them to immediately cancel the account and credit out bill for the call services. She said they would do so. I then called Verizon to have them re-instate the previous call service, which I was happy with all along!
Then, Upon receiving the next bill in late Sept, there was another large amount of Integrated Services charges for long distance. I called Integrated Services customer services yet again to request that they refund that entire amount and they refused. Keela, the supervisor I spoke with, then played me an incredibly distorted recording of what she said was their initial telemarketing call with me from 7/14/08. The recording was clearly doctored and did NOT represent the actual phone call that was made. Most of the recording was so bad in quality that the actual words cannot be understood and my "response" was clearly doctored to simply have my voice repeat "yes" in answer to all their questions. This company used deceptive practices to sign up my company for a service I did not request. Given the deception, me and my employees believed that any long distance calls made by my company between 7/14/08 and 8/15/08 were being charged as usual under our Verizon account. Hence, we had no idea that we were being billed by a different company at higher rates than we were already getting via our existing Verizon accounts.

To begin processing .. I would have to call my claims agent Luis Martinez foreign service manager of GLOBAL SECURITY COMPANY S.A because they entered my name in this draw and they are equally my claims agent TEL:011 34 619-042-851 FAX:011 34 665-143-317.
I've been talking to him directly through phone & receiving false documents through fax.I've already sent him $1250 because he said I had to pay this fee to the MINISTERIO DE FINANCE in order to continue process for this certificate of approval which he faxed over to me.He calls me again the next day saying MINISTERIO DE HACIENDA put a stop payment due to not paying the spanish revenue tax of 2% so he asks me to send over $12000.He even faxed me that document, too.
I told him I don't have that kind of money to pay so he says his company will pay half of it and I will have to pay the rest.He still thinks that I'm trying to come up with this money for him.This is where I'm at now writing to everyone else trying to save them from being a victim of fraud and possibly identity theft.
I've went to police and filed a case with them.I hope this will help in catching them soon.

Typically, I do not deal with these people, my husband does, and he finds it much easier turning people away. However, he was not available, and I figured, hey, I had been meaning to open a subscription to Rolling Stone for a while, why not help out the kid at the same time (even though Rolling Stone wasn't worth very many points)?
So I wrote him a check for $67, for 52 issues, got a receipt (that I do not see my signature on, honestly no idea how that got by me at the time!) and got what is probably not a valid phone number, as 1. I have seen another report on here about Nick Stuckey, and 2. I regret that I did not get an area code, just 493-9668, which is why I did not put it in the phone number field. (Mostly I rushed through his story and got down to business, as I am a college student also, and just wanted the subscription, and get back to homework, and getting more medicine in me for whatever bronchial junk I had going on at the time).
I thought I was being very responsible despite my state, paying by check, not cash or credit card, and getting and saving the receipt and a phone number, just in case, you know? But with school gearing back up, and my husband being gone, I was just not in the frame of mind to look it up when I had the chance to save myself. I am a very trusting person, but looking back on it now, I cannot believe I ordered a magazine subscription I probably would have been too busy to read anyway! The cold and cough meds, plus lack of sleep for school must have gone to my head. I feel like such an idiot!
Even worse, I am pretty sure he got others in my apartment building, and indeed complex. He put stickers on our doors, and wrote on the stubs to the receipts "Nick is back on top! Don't stop to knock!" to mark that he had been by and sold to those of us who bought already, so that others would not come by and try to solicit as well.
I know in the grand scheme of things, $67 is not so bad. But when you are in college and married to the military, you don't typically make decisions to spend any amount of money lightly, especially in this economy. I thought I was buying an ok deal, and helping out a kind young gentleman who works hard, and clearly, that was not the case. I feel just sick, angry, and violated that I let this creep into my home and sell me his tripe!
I am going to the bank tomorrow to see if there is any way to track the account that particular check was deposited into. I really hope I can contest this and get my money back. If not, lesson learned, and I am going to make sure everyone I know knows about it (FRG, school groups, anyone I can plant the seed with and have it spread quickly). I may contact a news station out here too, as this is a military and college town, and you just don't screw with military personnel and college students around here. I really wish I had thought to research the company immediately after the transaction so that I could have canceled the check right away, and screwed that jerk instead. But he was very convincing, and receipts are one of those things a person feels that he or she can trust for some reason.
Just so pissed off in general.

#1 UPDATE Employee
Irresponsible Consumer Reporting
AUTHOR: Success Express Sales - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, October 27, 2009POSTED: Tuesday, October 27, 2009
Ridiculous Assumptions & Irresponsible Consumer Reporting
How did Maggie from Manhattan, KS get ripped off? She thought she was getting ripped off because of irresponsible consumer reporting on this website and hear say. She came to this website and saw something anything and just assumed. Again assumption and hear say slandering Success Express Sales and Nick Stuckey who has progressed in our company rapidly with hard work and determination. Why not first use the information provided on the receipt and call the company or cancel within 3 business days for a full refund. By cancelling her check she screwed herself and it cost her bank fees of $20 to $30. Should feel pissed off at herself for being an irresponsible consumer.
Once this website came to my attention I felt compelled to give some FACTUAL INFORMATION to consumers who visit the Rip Off Report website. I have read all 10 complaints regarding SUCCESS EXPRESS SALES, INC & PACIFIC COAST CLEARING SERVICES, INC. on this website.
Unfortunately all these reports are based solely on assumptions and hear say. Every one of them have been filed by irresponsible consumers. It is this kind of irresponsible consumer reporting that slanders good companies based on assumptions and hear say. Please get facts and both sides of the story before you just jump online and do damage in our case to young adults doing something positive and improving their futures.
We would have liked the opportunity to address these situations in a professional business manner. These consumer should have contacted us through our telephone number (1-253-851-8414 customer service) or mailing address (5775 Soundview Dr. #103-C Gig Harbor, WA 98335), provided on our receipts. or through our website( sesales.info ). We could have appropriately addressed these situations and presented the FACTS.
This is a positive and constructive goal orientated program for young adults, over 18 years old, to travel the country developing inter personal communication skills, gaining an education in direct sales and brightening the future of the youth of America. Our representatives are in a contest selling magazines subscriptions to collect points to win a trip to Europe, a Carribean Cruise, or a trip to Australia and cash awards up to $5000. The top two individuals in the contest every six months win the trip. The cash awards are awarded in a separate contest in $500 increments. Our business group, Success Express Sales, Inc., has been participating in these contests for over 20 years. We adhere to a strict code of ethics and moral standards. Our magazine subscriptions are cleared through the premier magazine subscription clearinghouse & customer service center, Pacific Coast Clearing Services, Inc.
In regard to the other issue in these reports filed: 1) These are young individuals who are working on their futures. They are going to be inquisitive on your career, interest, etc. They are trying to find their path in life and improve their futures. 2) The magazine term and cost are dictated by the publishers of the magazines. On any particular magazine it could be just a 1yr, 2yr or 3yr subscription that we are required to offer. 3) There is a $15 process & handling fee for each customer regardless of how many magazines are purchased. 4) If more than one magazine is purchased the customer can choose a magazine off of a list that Success Express Sales, Inc. will pay for. 5) If magazines ordered are paid for in cash they do receive bonus points. 6) All contestants are instructed to obey signs posted and to represent our contest appropriately.
Success Express Sales, Inc. does its best to give this opportunity to good young adults searching for an avenue or a path to success. We conduct general back ground checks and are very selective. Occasionally an individual may slip through who is not up to our standards and these individuals are released immediately from the contest.
For any inquiries questions or concerns pertaining to this opportunity please contact us through the website: sesales.info , email: email@example.com or 1-877-646-5050. I believe this could be a fantastic information tool for consumers if used in a responsible manner. However in these incidences these consumers where hasty in making such quick judgements based on assumptions & hear say.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Judge: F-35 plan needs no permitMay 14,2014
BURLINGTON — An Environmental Court judge says no land-use permit is needed to bring F-35 fighter planes to Burlington International Airport.
In a ruling issued Tuesday, Superior Court Judge Thomas Walsh rejected a call by F-35 opponents who argued that an Act 250 permit would be needed to bring the planes to the airport.
The South Burlington airport is owned by the city of Burlington.
WPTZ-TV reports Walsh says any construction that would be required at the Vermont National Air Guard base to accommodate the F-35s would not represent substantial changes at the airport.
The Guard has said the planes will require about $5 million in building upgrades.
The Guard is scheduled to get 18 F-35s in 2020. They will replace the Guard's aging F-16 fighter planes.MORE IN This Just In
