Two issues (I am using multiple maps if that helps):
1 - When I have an apostrophe in the title (') - like the word O'Fallon - WP Google Maps keeps adding slashes (/) to the title whenever I save the map. Like this O///'Fallon.
This seems like a bug.
2 - When I go to advanced options and make: Directions Open By Default>Yes, Below... the box opens on the right. Not below.
Really need some help fixing these. Thanks!

Skip to comments.Blood On Their Hands: Exposing Pro-abortion Catholic Politicians
Posted on 05/04/2003 4:58:05 PM PDT by nickcarraway
click here to read article
"While the deep concern of a woman bearing an unwanted child merits consideration and sympathy, it is my personal feeling that the legalization of abortion on demand is not in accordance with the value which our civilization places on human life. Wanted or unwanted, I believe that human life, even at its earliest stages, has certain rights which must be recognized -- the right to be born, the right to love, the right to grown old.
"I share the confidence of those who feel that America is working to care for its unwanted as well as wanted children, protecting particularly those who cannot protect themselves. I also share the opinions of those who do not accept abortion as a response to our society's problems -- an inadequate welfare system, unsatisfactory job training programs, and insufficient financial support for all its citizens.
"When history looks back to this era it should recognize this generation as one which cared about human beings enough to halt the practice of war, to provide a decent living for every family and to fulfill its responsibility to its children from the very moment of conception."
"Abortion? I am all for it
for certain undesirable organizations
"Abort N.O.W., NARAL, and Planned Parenthood!
Abort Roe v Wade and all laws that allow the
MURDER of my unborn friends!"
"Life is Sacred from the moment of conception!"

I've said it before many times - the Catholic Church is not a political organization whose doctrine can be changed over time through moral "change" or majority opinion. His Word and Teachings do not "evolve" - what is right is right, today as it was 2000 years ago.
Duh... lemmme think...maybe because their voters don't care what U.S. bishops say about it... Ya'think?
To borrow from Tom Daschle, "I'm deeply saddened." Why? ... Because the Catholic Church has lain with the whore, to speak metaphorically, and Biblically!
Bishop Hart looked askance at this question. Then he said, Well, it would be a very rare situation that we would deny Communion to anyone.
Have you talked to Senator Dodd about his views on abortion and cloning?
That would be a personal thing, he said plainly.
Can you think of any circumstances in which Communion would be denied?
Bishop Hart paused. He turned slightly and thought the matter over for about ten seconds. Finally he said, with the air of someone genuinely stumped, I cant think of any situation where I would deny Holy Communion. In such a posture, communion wouldn't be Holy from this Bishop, merely a hollow ritual.
Such an man does not represent MY LORD and Savior. The Catholic Church presents itself as intermediary between man and God. If the Church cannot and/or will not as policy withhold the Flesh and Blood of My Lord from persons supporting the slaughter of fellow individual human beings, the Church is no longer in touch with God and has lain with the whore.
What the failure of the Church to uphold righteousness is leading to is the tacit acceptance of human cannibalism. Imagine, it will be the cannibalized bodies of individual human lives conceived solely for harvesting body parts that the Church will be completely impotent to oppose, because the Church has not stood for righteousness regarding the alive unborn with their own members!
The 'whoremongering' Church has given cover to the enemies of Life for so long now, the Church is no longer in touch with The Savior. Some Priests and Bishops still strive to serve Our Lord, but as a body, the edicts of the Holy Father are routinely ignored by Priests and Bishops thus giving cover to reprobate catholics. It is the Lord who will judge this whoremongering, this gross failure to be His Priests. It is the Lord's forgiveness the Church ought seek, and prove repentance with action.
The Church gives lip service to piety yet allows the practicing Catholic to establish the rules, individually. It is clear that Jesus is no longer the acknowledged leader of the Church, establishing what is written at the end of Judges, "In those days there was no King in Israel, and everyman did what was right in his own eyes." Read again what Bishop Hart asserted, and see in his smarmy complicity the words found in Judges: That would be a personal thing, he said plainly. Yes, to choose what is right and wrong is a personal thing, not the purview of a Church laying with The Whore.
How're ya, anyway? Hope all is well with ewe. ;)
Open wide, Kerry. I got a movement for ya.
If more American Catholic prelates decide to challenge their local culture-of-death Catholic politicians, theyll need courage. Unlike the battle for desegregationwhich had the support of Hollywood, the media, the universities, and the courtsthe pro-life war has only the White House, one branch of Congress, and two Christian denominations.
Yet this is all the more reason why every cardinal and bishop must expose this evil. And if that involves warning and denying the sacraments to culture-of-death Catholic politicians, so be it. As the bishops have already written, challenging these politicians isnt voluntary. Its a duty and a pastoral responsibility.
Catholic Church asks Tom Daschle to stop calling himself a Catholic
On Catholic Politicians and Faith
Vatican Urges Catholic Politicians to Vote Along Church Lines
Senator Santorum on Being Catholic and a Politician
William E. Simon, Sr. and Jr. Devout Catholics, Philanthropists and Politicians
Deadly Dozen senator taken to task over claims of Catholicism
THE BISHOP AND THE SENATOR [author links to FR thread regarding Daschle in her online column]
Indeed, and politics have a lot to do with it.
The answer to that question can be found in the Gospels themselves.
The Gospels offer a stark contrast between St. Peter and St. John. Peter was the short-tempered, flawed human being who would deny Christ three times during the night before the crucifixion, while John "the beloved" was the favorite disciple of Christ. John was the only one of the twelve apostles who was not afraid to follow Jesus to Calvary, and consequently it was John to whom Our Lord entrusted His mother. John was also the only apostle whose love for Jesus Christ was so unquestioned during his life that he didn't have to die a martyr's death.
And yet Jesus selected Peter as the rock upon which He would build His Church.
There is a lesson to be learned here -- this was not just an accident of history. To be an effective shepherd of men it takes more than just ardent devotion to Christ. In fact, for some modern "shepherds" the application of this devotion may even be an obstacle.
This is the conclusion that St. Augustine sadly came to after fruitlessly debating the Donatists of Africa, who had left Africa in a state of civil war for a hundred years.
This is not a simple case of a sinner being reprimanded. The Church has always followed a different course of action when dealing with someone who is a public sinner. Someone who steals from his neighbor should be dealt with in the confessional (assuming this theft is not discovered by the neighbor). Someone who publicly states that anyone can steal from their neighbor and get away with it cannot just be dealt with in the confessional -- his actions are FAR MORE DESTRUCTIVE than the simple act of theft.

When I was a kid, I used to pour over them, wishing for rods, reels, lures, you name it. I understand they are still in business, but very limited-not at all what they once were. Too bad. They had a hold of the market before Cabela's or Bass Pro Shops and "dropped the ball" I'm guessing. Wish I had an old copy of one of their catalogues just for kicks.

To the Editor.—
I am writing to express my surprise at your including a theological article in The Journal, "On the Physical Death of Jesus Christ."1 The opening paragraphs of this article purport to present religious faith as "fact," and in so doing perpetuate negative and very possibly erroneous beliefs that have been the core of anti-Semitism through the ages, and the basis upon which terrible persecution has been visited upon people of the Jewish faith.Specifically, the authors claim that Jesus was arrested, tried, found guilty, and spat upon by Jews, who then demanded his execution by the Romans even though the Romans could find no legal basis for such a crime or punishment. They report that "the people persistently demanded" crucifixion. The authors of this article cite as the basis of historical accuracy for these assertions sources such as the New Testament Gospels, and other texts and

Our rep., Michael Sarnese, was no help once all this started. He wouldn't return emails or phone calls. So we closed our account.
Two weeks later our account was debited for over $400. They set up the funds transfer from our bank account so that if we didn't dispute it within 24 hours, we couldn't file bank fraud charges against them.
That's the way the scam works. The goal is to set you up with Flagship so they can get access to your bank account. Then they make you close your merchant services account and I-Payment cleans you out with no recourse by you.

Grodvek travelled for 2 years, wintering with kindly Mitgardian farmers, and even spending a month with a slumbering bear! Eventually Grodvek's wandering led him to Avalonia, where he started working as a field hand for a local Burgher - Lorvan Folsum.
After a few years of saving, Grodvek was able to purchase a small plot of land to call his own. Shortly after, he met Radka - a fellow Mitgardian immigrant who was working in the Burgher's kitchens. Grodvek tilled his small plot, growing fruits and vegetables in the fertile soil, and eventually married Radka. Their son Udvek, has seen 10 summers, and will soon be joining his father in the fields.
Grodvek's plot of land lies just North of Harvest Cross, a few miles in from the coastal waters harboring the Mystic Isles. He built his house in the traditional style of his Mitgardian ancestors - log walls and sod roof for warm winters and stifling summers.
Grodvek returns home from a long day working in Burgher Folsum's fields. His son Udvek is playing with his mongrel, Kuvar.
Grodvek carries his sickle and drinking horn, his daily tools for work in the fields. The Burgher made him dye his cap green, because the Burgher painted his barn green, and must like the color.
Radka is checking on Udvek, and she thought she had heard Grodvek's whistling over the crackling of the hearth. The stew is almost prepared for dinner - perfect timing.
Grodvek is thankful he was able to salvage seeds from his Mitgardian homeland. They have been able to sell their exotic crops (pumpkins and cabbage) at a good price. His family has not want for food these last winters.
The woodpile will need some work before winter sets in, although Grodvek always stores like he's still in Mitgardia - the woodpile hasn't been bare since before Udvek was born.
Grodvek considers himself rich with food, family and fire. The gods were with him when he moved to Avalonia.

From the Manufacturer
What is an unlocked phone?
An unlocked phone is a device that is not bound to any carrier or plan. It allows you to choose your phone first and your carrier second. Upon selecting a plan, simply insert the carrier's SIM card into the phone and you're ready to go. If you decide you want to change carriers down the road or want to take an international trip, it's as simple as replacing your existing SIM card with a new SIM and activating your new plan.
What are the benefits of an unlocked phone?
Freedom: Choose the carrier with the best service or price. If you find a better deal later, you have the ability to change to a different carrier.
Travel: Take your phone internationally and use the carrier of your choice. It's as easy as inserting an active SIM card.
Selection: Choose the phone with the features you want, whether or not your carrier sells it, and get more service options without a contract.
How do I set up my unlocked phone?
The first thing you'll need is a SIM card for your desired carrier. When activated, the SIM card will let your phone connect to your carrier's network. If you decide to upgrade to a newer unlocked phone in the future, you can easily remove the SIM card from your old phone and put it in your new phone—just make sure you get the right size of SIM card (nano, micro, or standard) for your phone. If you want to use your phone while traveling internationally, you can easily buy a SIM card for a carrier that operates where you're traveling. As long as it's activated, you can just swap SIM cards when you arrive at your destination.
Customer Reviews
Top Customer Reviews
1. Better voice reception in my area (carrier issue). 2. Longer battery life than my previous iphone 3. Better connectivity with my office software.
I really like this phone. It took a little extra time to set it up fully - two days. Once I had it set up, it is works like a charm. For functionality, this phone is great. For the basis needs: phone, email, tasks lists, maps, google search, voice to text, etc... it is easy and user friendly. It is also fun to use. Lot of ways to customize the functions. I do not play a lot of games, no comment there.
Further pluses:
1. Looks well made and durable. Gorilla glass with Kevlar Back.
2. Size is comparable to iphone 4. Not too big, not too small. Good for the pocket.
3. Screen size is great. Bigger than iphone 4 or 5.
4. All my favorite iphone apps are on Google Play - Pulse, Zite, Evernote, Onenote. You Version.
5. The widgets are extremely functional.
6. Voicemail is better than iphone. More intuitive.
7. Audio is good. More than adequate.
8. The Motorola software add-ons seem to be useful. I don't have any experience with other handsets.
9. I like having a standard micro USB connection. The iphone cord issue is a significant bummer.
My only concerns:
1. the screen is not as clear as the iphone. Not a big issue for me... I don't like reading on a small devise.
2. will I have enough memory? Probably. I don't have a ton of extraneous apps. Added a micro SD for media.
Summary: I am very happy with this purchase. Great price. All the reviews that I have read are accurate and reliable. You can trust their advise.
Good luck. Lots of excellent choices out there.
The battery life so far has been good. It doesn't hold a charge like the RAZR MAXX but it will keep a charge all day if you aren't watching videos with it. I took it out for a run with me on Saturday morning, a long 2 hour run, and it was running a gps tracking app as well as playing music for two hours straight and it barely put a dent in the battery. Never had to put it on the charger to get through the day.
As far as pictures, in my opinion, if you want perfection then go buy a camera. This is a smart phone.
CONS: Average battery life (though not bad), off button location
I just upgraded to this from my Droid X (which is not a bad phone, either). First of all, when I saw that this phone was $50 to $150 less than many other new smartphones on the market I thought there was a significant trade-off. Well, after about 24 hours of VERY heavy usage and research I have yet to find one other than the lack of HDMI output--which I don't use. The design is very nice and the quality of the screen is beautiful. It took a little while getting used to the new OS features and settings, but only because I was coming off an older phone with Android v. 3. I love the ability to multi-task on this, by selecting from multiple screens, and that Chrome is installed as the default browser. Also, if you have an old X or Razr, your cords will work with this phone. Some of you may have known that, I was very happy to learn it. The camera is MUCH easier to use than the one on the X. There isn't as much of a lag when snapping photos, and the quality is pretty good for a smartphone. C'mon! If you want poster quality, get a digital camera! I have bluetooth in my car and the set-up on this phone was a breeze. No complaints on call quality either.
The only bad things I can say are about the battery (only slightly better than most smartphones, definitely not a deal-killer) and the location of the on/off button above the volume control. Also, there is no 'home' key for taking you back to the main home screen like X had (only a minor personal annoyance). The pre-installed ringtones are pretty terrible, but this is a non-issue as there are plenty of free alternatives on the Android market.
Bottom line: A great phone for anyone looking to upgrade, or just starting out in the smartphone sphere.
Cons: The battery life is not as good as the Maxx, but destroys the standard Razr.
Pros: All the great things the Razr Maxx can do, but in a smaller package while maintaining the same screen size.
Bottom line: Biggest bang for the buck on the market!
There strength is reception and all calls are crystal clear. Haven't had a drop call yet.
I didn't want a behemoth phone to carry around. This phone is just the right size. Fits in your palm, fits in your pocket ,and the price fits my budget. I'm sure some will have it free by Black Friday. The battery life is great, streamed pandora for 3 hours and I'm still at 73%. But that is really dependent on your proximity to towers, but it's much better than my previous Droid Pro. it would be dead now, and it was only a 3g phone. This phone includes a full version of Chrome, and it syncs bookmarks between it and your home and work computers. I love it. Download a flashlight app and you will be able to light up your front yard. This puppy is bright. The picture quality is amazing. The customization is great. It has what they call "smartactions", I call them triggers. I programmed it to start Pandora, when it connects to my car over Bluetooth. There are many triggers you can program. Button placement is good, it feels good in the hand, and love the fact it is splash proof. Oh, and the navigation is awsome, sounds like a real person with this version.
Another great new feature is talk and surf at the same time, something you couldn't do with older phones unless you were on AT&T. Now I can look up stuff on the internet will I'm talking to someone.

(Alabaster, Ala., Aug. 20, 2012) ----- According to a recent study by the U.S. Department of Justice, fraud has increased more than 30 percent over the past 24 months, but thanks to you and your tips the US can now rest assured that the International Con Man Stephan Schurmann CEO of Powerconcrete .us, Powerconcrete.com and Stephanschurmann.us is now on the run from the FBI, Police and Creditors and is hiding in Canada.
He used his fake passport to enter the US and had victimized several clients, took this money and ran to Canada where he is now running his cons and hiding from authorities.
Powerconcrete is a fake NON-EXISTING patent and non-trademarked third world building system and Stephan Schurmann CEO of Powerconcrete.com and Powerconcrete.us originating from Nigeria and Germany is was trying to enter USA markets to rip off Americans with selling non-patent protected.
This is a clear warning for everyone that Stephan Schurmann is trying to sell lousy Powerconcrete Franchises in the USA. The bottom line, When people see the brand Powerconcrete, the German crook and his Character assassinations they should run the other direction.
The US can now sleep in peace with this International Con Man, Stephan Schumann banished from the US and many other countries. For more information , please visit: http://www.stephanshchurmann.com

right now XIN above 70 RSI and checking your view, you only have ahead slow stoc 100.
If we revise a lot of american stocks (like INTC yesterday @ $ 22,67 = 0), BB are playing 0 and 100 without any problem.
They have made an extension of the movements.
Please, post your view if you want.
I think you should take all of your money to short XIN. Think of how rich you'd be!!!
Only an idiot would short a few weeks before earnings. They always pop up when earnings are announced.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
you are betting RSI 70 using K Slow Stoc @ 90 so you may be right. Charts by you.
Of course wishing you the worst luck.

SciencePreschoolersKindergartners2 Comments
Recently, Henry came home with a note from school asking for a picture of one living thing and another of a nonliving object.
While we found one picture of each, we set out to find a bunch of pictures of living and nonliving things to make a collage of each and learn a little about classifying.
I'm going to start backwards this time, because I think you'd find this helpful to do beforehand, even though we didn't think to research until afterwards.
After we made our living and nonliving things collages, the boys (Henry mostly) had a lot of questions to clarify what it meant to be living or nonliving. So I headed to the internet to find out. The most helpful site I found to explain to preschoolers and kindergartners is on Math/Science Nucleus. It lists the following as traits to distinguish between living and nonliving things. (I'm summarizing, so see the site to get it from them too!)
- Living thing grow. This is one that I mentioned in our classifications. It held true in our encounters, but there are exceptions.
- Most living can move on their own. Although plants do not. And cars and trucks move too. I found this not a great way to explain to little kids.
- Living things need food, water, and a place to live. This one seems obvious to me now, but I couldn't think of it as we were classifying. The site also mentioned that almost all living things need air. We did mention air, but we were talking about a candle, so there are exceptions there too.
- Living things reproduce. Things that are not living cannot have "babies." This I find to be a very definitive and if the kids were a bit older a very good way to explain it. But I don't think they'd understand it at this age.
Now with a little clarification of what pictures to look for… go on a search through any catalogs, magazines, or newspapers you have. Cutting out pictures of whatever you find.
We sorted the pictures of living and nonliving things as we went. I labeled a baggy for each to sort into.
This was great cutting practice for George. While he has great control over a scissors and cuts very well, he never really has cut around something before. So this was a first for him to cut in a certain way instead of just whatever he likes.
The boys each had a magazine to flip through and find objects. George landed on one that had several lizard ads for a paint product and they loved them. They each cut out a couple (they were each an entire page ad).
I sat with them an flipped through a magazine too, pointing out an object every once in a while and asking if it was living or nonliving.
You could also go on a scavenger hunt in nature and talk about living and nonliving things!
It opened a lot of discussion about what made it a living thing. Though I realized I was stumped on the answer (which is why we researched it later and wish I would have started with that).
Once we had a bunch of pictures cut out, I gave the boys each a piece of scrapbook paper and wrote living on one and nonliving on the other.
The boys glued all the pictures to their paper to make a quick collage.
With the magazines I had (a home repair, and a home decor one) I thought we'd have a harder time finding living things, but we really came up short on the nonliving pictures!
I noticed George was severely short on pictures of nonliving things, so I kept cutting more out to fill up his paper a little bit more.
On the other hand, Henry had more than enough pictures of living things! He filled up both sides of his!

Fast forward 2 months later: I had spent a GREAT deal of time and money in remodeling a bathroom. All that was left was a skim coat of drywall and paint. I had the estimator come back (foreman #1) and communicated this to him as best I could (he did not speak very good english). Days later, the company owner (Jose) showed up and started work on my bathroom. Hours later, it was a mess. The wall was extremely lumpy (he did no sanding of his wall patches) and it looked like hell. I had him re-do the wall. Upon a second attempt the wall looked better, but still was not sanded OR flat. He then said he had to get going because traffic was going to be bad. I had to cut my losses and later had to bring in a REAL painter/drywall specialist to fix the bathroom.
That was not the end of my nightmare. Jose managed to get paint all over my brand new tub (textured bottom), paint on the tiles, spackle in my newly plumbed drains. He then used my utility sink to clean his paint supplies and left paint all over the sink and my floors. None of this was cleaned up and was left for me to clean.
I lucked out the first time, but I warn any consumer or craigslist user to think twice before hiring this crew.

Their estimate was certainly one of the more aggressive estimates we received, so naturally our concern was that the quality of work might not be as good as some of the other companies we considered but our concern was quickly put to rest and were very happy to have gotten the work done at a reasonable price.
Theres no doubt that when we need any paint work done in the future my first (and hopefully only) call will be to Carlos Andia and his team. In addition to Carlos being a very solid guy, the entire team that came out to my house was polite and courteous. I cant speak to the initial negative review that is listed here but I have a hard time believing that Carlos and his team do anything but superb work and with great customer service and care.
Attached are a couple pictures just to give everyone a sense as to how the end product looks.

YouTube Puts a Dent in PPV Revenue
by TK Stewart
Hours after Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez engaged in another great night of boxing on HBO PPV, the money wasn't yet tallied as to how many pay-per view buys were ordered up by boxing fans. Early indicators are that the rematch, which Pacquiao won by split-decision, will be a big winner at the cash register.
Just over 11,000 fans flooded into the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas and because the arena was sold out even more fans paid $50 each to watch it on the big screen in another room at the casino.
If you were watching television in the week or so before the fight it was difficult not to see the commercials hyping the "Unfinished Business" rematch as it was a multi-pronged promotion that will pay big dividends.
But it likely could have been even more of a financial blockbuster without the dirtiest word a boxing promoter has ever heard - YouTube.
The morning after the fight, anybody with Internet access could log onto the popular Web site and watch the entire Pacquiao - Marquez rematch free of charge. The night before, if you wanted to watch the fight and the three bout undercard, you could have done so on HBO PPV but you would have had to pony up $49.95 to do it.
But less than twelve hours after the fight had ended in Las Vegas, 14,332 people had already viewed the entire fight or portions of it on YouTube.
Now that may not seem like a large number, especially from a global perspective, but when it's put into dollars and cents the impact and power of YouTube hits home like a Manny Pacquiao straight left hand.
If all 14,332 that viewed the fight for free had paid the $49.95 pay-per view asking price it translates into $715, 883.40 of possible lost revenue. That's right, nearly three quarters of a million dollars. Real money, to be sure, and that dollar figure rises every hour as thousands more voyeurs log on and view for free.
Most boxing fans see this new "free" system as a wonderful reprieve from outrageously high cable and satellite bills. Many no doubt take it as an act of liberation to be able to take a pass on the pay-per view show and then watch a fight the next day for nothing.
But the real impact of what this means for the sport of boxing may not be realized by the very fans that purport to love and support it.
A cursory examination will tell you that this is money that the television networks and promoters use to pay the fighters and that the fighters in turn use to pay their staff of trainers, handlers and support people. It's money that promoters would have used to make payroll and hire publicists to do all the work behind the scenes to put these huge events together. It's money that would have been used to help with marketing expenses and to pay for everything from conference calls to press room meals to plane tickets to fight posters.
Now some will argue that the television networks and promoters are fat cats who have gotten rich on the backs of a powerless public that has been forced to pay $40 or $50at least once a month in order to watch their favorite fighters. They would say that YouTube is nothing more than a way for the fans to circumvent the power brokers in the sport and it allows them to get the last laugh on names like Don King and Bob Arum as well as HBO and Showtime.
But the fans shouldn't laugh too hard. In the end, it's likely the fighters who are losing out.
Instead of Pacquiao receiving $3 million for his fight with Marquez, maybe he gets several hundred thousand more if the fight does high pay-per view numbers. That means more for his trainer Freddie Roach and more for everyone right on down the line of the gravy train.
I'd guess that when it's all said and done and that when all of the dollars are counted, that it's the fighters who are really left holding a lighter lunch pail. And that's a shame.
Arum Stirs the Pot - Many fans and also many in the boxing media (is their a difference anymore?) have been getting on Bob Arum's case because they don't like the fact that he has decided not to do an immediate third fight between Pacquiao and Marquez.
Instead, Arum's going to match Pacquiao against WBC Lightweight titlist David Diaz on June 28th. Arum is also Diaz' promoter. Even Richard Schaeffer of Golden Boy Promotions (who should take some lessons from Bob) was unhappy with the direction that Arum is taking Pacquiao next. But as Bobby Brown used to sing, that's his "prerogative".
Arum has been criticized for not matching his middleweight champion, Kelly Pavlik, against Winky Wright. After the fight with John Duddy fell apart at the hands of Walid Smichet, Arum was left looking for an opponent. The obvious choice was Wright, but Arum steered Pavlik as far away from Wright as possible and didn't want to hear anything about Winky Wright whom Arum perceives to be overpriced and with a less than fan friendly style of fighting.
Instead Arum will match Pavlik against the unknown (at least here in the USA) Gary Lockett from Wales.
So why would Arum take his two shiniest stars in Pacquiao and Pavlik and match them against lesser names like Diaz and Lockett?
Well, Arum's plans allow him to keep more of the money as he doesn't have to split the proceeds with Golden Boy Promotions if he stays away from Marquez and Wright. And he gets the chance to allow his two crown jewels to take a bit of a breather after having been matched very tough in their most recent fights.
It also allows a third Pacquiao vs. Marquez fight to simmer on the burner for a while longer and stew into a mega promotion. It will be an even tastier treat if Pacquiao beats David Diaz and Marquez also wins another fight. A rematch at the end of the year, after the fans have been made to wait several months for it, will surely whet every one's appetite.
As for Pavlik, a gimme fight against Lockett on June 7th in Atlantic City allows the middleweight contenders to sort themselves out a little bit and hopefully a clear front-runner to Pavlik will emerge. If nothing else, it allows John Duddy's cuts a while to heal and for him to learn a defensive move or two from his trainer Don Turner. It would also allow us to see whether an inactive, Krispy Kreme eating Winky Wright can even make 160 pounds.
Make no mistake, Arum is a master chef when it comes to Pavlik and Pacquiao and even though he's closing in on 80 years old, he's still cooking.
Mayweather's Wrestling Career - Unlike some other boxing scribes, I have no problem with Floyd "Money" Mayweather's foray into the laughable world of professional wrestling. I've always thought someplace like the WWE is just the spot for Floyd and his personality. Truth be told, Mayweather's type of act plays best in the theatrical world of pro wrestling.
When the "Pretty Boy" told me one night in Las Vegas that he was "better than Sugar Ray Robinson and Muhammad Ali" he believed it. And anybody with that much of a warped sense of himself and with that sort of sick sense of humor should do very well in the WWE. I hope he stays in wrestling. He blends right in well with that gang of thugs and misfits.
I also hope that all 441 pounds of the "Big Show" trips and falls on him when they meet at Wrestlemania XXIV.

I just bought a domain name http://www.nutrisian.com and it is hosted at Hostgator.
I used their cPanel > Fantastico to install WordPress. The main site is http://nutrisian.com. The admin site is http://nutrisian.com/wp-admin/ , according to the email sent.
However the problem is when I log in to the admin site, it jumps back to http://nutrisian.com. There is no dashboard, no admin portal. Please help me. What could be the problem?
