I really like this plug! The calendar is very dynamic, and the ability to import and export other calendar feeds is a powerful feature.
Unfortunately, I'm having a problem with categories and tags in plugin Version 1.7. When I edit an event, the Add New Category link does not respond, and the Add button for tags does not respond either. I was able to check the box for an existing category, but the category is not listed on the event page after Filed Under.
Can you please fix these issues?
Thank you,

Oscars Lowdown 2014: Best Documentary Feature - '20 Feet from Stardom' lightens up a dark bunch
In the lead-up to the 86th annual Academy Awards on March 2, HitFix will be bringing you the lowdown on all 24 Oscar categories with multiple entries each day. Take a few notes and bone up on the competition as we give you the edge in your office Oscar pool!
Long gone are the days when members of the Academy interested in voting for categories like Best Foreign Language Film, Best Documentary Feature and the shorts had to prove they had seen all the nominees by attending sanctioned screenings. In this brave new world, all of the nominees make it right to their doorsteps as screeners are provided and an honor system of sorts is in place. That will likely lead to some blind and bloc voting in these categories and general popularity will reign more than ever. Good idea? Bad idea? Who can say, really, but this is where we are, and you can bet it will have an affect on the doc features going forward.
The nominees are…
"The Act of Killing" (Joshua Oppenheimer and Signe Byrge Sørensen)
You'd be hard pressed to find another documentary in recent years that has been nominated for an Oscar, a Spirit Award, an International Documentary Association award, a Cinema Eye Honors award and a Gotham Award, but "The Act of Killing" fits that bill. It's also the most critically acclaimed of the year's Oscar nominees in the category and absolutely has a certain popularity on its side. I, for one, have felt all this to be a touch overdone, and while I appreciate the art on display, I have issues with the decisions made in the making of this film. But my feelings don't matter. Nevertheless, it's dark subject matter — the Indonesian anti-Communist purge of 1965 and 1966 — and that will make it a difficult sit for many viewers. (Check out our interview with Oppenheimer here.)
"Cutie and the Boxer" (Zachary Heinzerling and Lydia Dean Pilcher)
If I had a vote, honestly, I'd spring for "Cutie and the Boxer." Focused on the tumultuous 40-year marriage of boxing painter Ushio Shinohara and his wife Noriko, it's a truly unique document against the rest of this fray and does a wonderful job finding human touches throughout. The added animation elements are interesting and help convey what, ultimately, just resonates as a more interesting personal study to me. It surprised by even landing the nomination, so a win is a tall order, but it came on strong at the Cinema Eye Honors. So it definitely has its fans in the world of documentary filmmaking.
"Dirty Wars" (Richard Rowley and Jeremy Scahill)
Jeremy Scahill's work is beyond reproach and he tells a very important story with "Dirty Wars." The investigative journalist takes you inside US cover-ups of military indiscretion and digs in on the assassination of American citizen Anwar al-Awlkai among other things, painting a portrait of a superpower run amok. It would have been a killer study had Scahill not conceived and edited it like a celebration of that work, however, as he's so front and center throughout and it plays like some sort of Bond movie with him as the star. It seems an unlikely winner, particularly with so much going for the other nominees.

FactForge (formerly LDSR) represents a reason-able view to the web of data. It aims to allow users to find resources and facts based on the semantics of the data, like web search engines index WWW pages and facilitate their usage.
FactForge enables users to easily identify resources in the Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud. It provides efficient mechanism to query data from multiple datasets and sources, considering their semantics. FactForge is designed also as a use-case for large-scale reasoning and data integration.
FactForge includes several of the most central datasets of LOD. OWLIM semantic repository is used to load the data and "materialize" the facts that could be inferred from it. It is probably the largest and most heterogeneous body of general factual knowledge that was ever used for logical inference. Read more: presentation, brochure, presentation.
The Data
FactForge has the following characteristics:
- Datasets included: DBpedia, New York Times, MusicBrainz, Lingvoj, Lexvo, CIA World Factbook, WordNet,
Geonames, Freebase.
- Ontologies: several schemata used in the datasets are also loaded into FactForge: Dublin Core, SKOS, RSS, FOAF
Reference Layer – PROTON
- Size: 1.8B explicit plus 1.3B inferred statements are indexed; there are 15B different retrievable statements.
- Inference: materialization is performed with respect to the semantics of OWL-Horst optimized.
Access: Public Service at http://factforge.net
The data is accessible through a web use interface at http://factforge.net, which allows:
- RDF Search – retrieve ranked list of URIs related to literals, which contain specific keywords
- Exploration – traversing the data, one resource at a time
For instance, one can "browse" Madrid with its DBpedia URI, <http://dbpedia.org/resource/Madrid> or dbpedia:Madrid
- Evaluation of queries in SPARQL and other languages.
For instance, to obtain a list of politicians born in Germany one can use the following SPARQL query:
(...add prefixes here...)SELECT * WHERE { ?Person dbp-ont:birthPlace [geo-ont:parentFeature dbpedia:Germany] ; rdf:type dbp-ont:Politicians ; om:hasRDFRank ?RR . } ORDER BY DESC(?RR)
This is an example of a structured query, the evaluation of which involves data from 4 datasets and interpretation of the semantics of several schemata (i.e. reasoning). Within few seconds it returns results ranked by PageRank (in the RDF graph).
- Reference layer – using PROTON to access FactForge datasets
The same query can be formulated using the PROTON reference layer predicates only: (...add prefixes here...)SELECT * WHERE { ?Person pext:birthPlace [ptop:subRegionOf dbpedia:Germany] ; pext:hasProfession pext:Politician ; om:hasRDFRank ?RR . ?BirthPlace } ORDER BY DESC(?RR)
Note that the conceptualization of Politician in this model is a profession, whereas in the first query, Politician is
defined as a person. Additionally, executing the second query retrieves 35% more results over the entire FactForge
A public SPARQL end-point is available at http://factforge.net/sparql, allowing FactForge to be used as a query evaluation web service.
Credits and References
"Linked data" represents a set of principles for publishing of structured data they can be explored and navigated in a manner analogous to the HTML WWW. The linked data concept is an enabling factor for the realization of the Semantic Web as a global web of structured data around the Linking Open Data initiative.
FactForge has been initially developed as an evaluation case in the European research project LarKC. It has been extended, improved and build into the data layer infrastructure of RENDER FP7 European research project. The development of OWLIM, as well as other relevant technology and know-how, has been supported by several projects within programs FP5, FP6, and FP7 of the European Commission: RASCALLI, TAO, TripCom, SEKT, On-To-Knowledge.
The Linked Life Data service is similar to FactForge. It represents a reason-able view towards the life science part of LOD, including UniProt, GeneOntology, and more than 20 other datasets. FactForge and LLD are based on the same technology: Forest semantic web fronts-ends and OWLIM semantic repository. With its 5 billion explicit statements, LLD is probably the largest body of non-synthetic knowledge that was used for inference.
Notes and Disclaimers
FactForge is an experimental project from Ontotext. The access to this demonstration service is free of charge. Ontotext does not provide any guarantees for quality, availability, or fitness for particular purpose. FactForge is far from perfect.
Reason-able Views
Reason-able views (RAV) represent a practical approach for reasoning with the web of linked data. It is an assembly of independent datasets, which can be used as a single body of knowledge – an integrated dataset – with respect to reasoning and query evaluation. The integrated dataset is designed to meet some criteria for "reasonability", e.g. it has specific qualities with respect to a specific reasoning task and language. For example, "consistent with OWL Lite" or "allows RDFS entailment within O(n) time and space".
Linked data reason-able view can be considered a special case where:
- All the datasets in the view represent linked data
- Single reasonability criteria is imposed on all datasets
- Each dataset is connected to at least one of the others
Considering the size of the LOD datasets, in order to make query evaluation and reasoning practically feasible, the integrated dataset of a linked RAV should be loaded in a single repository (even if it employs some sort of distribution internally). Such linked RAV can be considered as index, which caches parts of the LOD cloud and provides access to the datasets included in it in a manner similar to the one in which web search engines index WWW pages and facilitate their usage.
As a final practical consideration, to allow for caching and indexing, linked RAVs should include only datasets that are more or less static; this excludes various types of wrappers or virtual datasets, where RDF is generated in answer to retrieval requests (one can make an analogy with the dynamic part of the WWW).
Standard Methods of Inference
Practically inapplicable to a web of linked data are the standard methods of sound and complete inference with respect to relatively rich flavor of the First Order Predicate Calculus (FOPC). Some of the major obstacles are:
- Counting on "closed-world" assumption models developed under centralized control by the most popular FOPC fragments, such as the Description Logics (DL). This is irrelevant in web context. Performing sound and complete inference with respect to LOD-type data is heavily prone to inconsistency. This renders the results of such inference useless.
- Mechanisms with prohibitively high computational complexity of the semantics of languages like DL. They require "satisfiability" checks. As a result the most scalable published experiments with DL reasoning remain below 10 million statements of sound and complete reasoning. This is not enough.
- Unsuitability for reasoning of some of the datasets of LOD (or some parts of them). Some data publishers seem to use the OWL and RDFS vocabulary without account for their formal semantics. The result of inference for some datasets is of questionable utility. For instance, a dataset contains a subject hierarchy, encoded via the relation rdfs:subClassOf with cycles of length tens of concepts. Any reasoner, following the standard semantics of rdfs:subClassOf, will infer that all the concepts in the loop are equivalent. This does not seem to be the intention of the publishers.
- Reasoning with data distributed across different web servers is possible but much slower than reasoning with local data. The fundamental reason is related to the so called "remote join" problem known from the distributed database management systems (DBMS).
Linking the Linked Data
Reasoning has the potential to enhance the interlinking between linked data datasets, as long as it it ensures enforcement of the semantics of the links. For instance, the link between the identifiers for Vienna in DBpedia (dbpedia:Vienna) and in Geonames (geonames:2761369), and the statements linkingVienna to the corresponding high-level administrative region in Austria (geonames:2761367):
dbpedia:Vienna owl:sameAs geonames:2761369 geonames:2761369 gno:parentFeature geonames:2761367
derive by simple inference the statement:
dbpedia:Vienna gno:parentFeature geonames:2761367
This would allow this connection between the DBpedia entry of Vienna and the Geonames description of Austria to appear when exploring dbpedia:Vienna or to be considered during query evaluation.
Web of Linked Data
Here follows a quick introduction to the notions of Semantic Web, Linked Data and the Linking Open Data initiative.
Semantic Web
The Semantic Web provides a common framework that allows data to be shared and reused across application, enterprise, and community boundaries. This fosters the opportunity of creating a next generation world-wide web of structured data which are not only understandable to humans (like the typical HTML page), but also understandable by computers.
The data on the Semantic Web have explicitly defined structure (like in the databases) and semantics (like in the ontologies). This allows the computers to perform structured queries (like those in SQL) and infer new facts.
In short, the Semantic Web is an extension of the current WWW, in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation.
Linked Data
The web of linked data represents a vision of Tim Berners-Lee of a collection of open and linked structured data on the Web. It calls upon two initiatives: (a) the Linked Data initiative and (b) the Linking Open Data initiative.
Linked Data is a set of principles for publishing of structured data in the form of RDF graphs, so that they can be explored and navigated in a manner analogous to the HTML WWW and be understandable by computers. These principles are:
1. Using URIs as names of things
2. Using HTTP URIs, so that people can look up those names
3. Providing useful information when someone looks up a URI
4. Including links to other URI, so people can discover more things
The linked data concept is an enabling factor for the realization of the Semantic Web as a global web of structured data.
Linking Open Data (LOD)
Linking Open Data (LOD) is a W3C SWEO community project. It aims to facilitate the emergence of a web of linked data, by means of publishing and interlinking open data on the Web in RDF.
The central dataset of LOD is DBpedia – an RDF extract of the Wikipedia. DBpedia is a sort of a hub in the LOD graph, which guarantees certain level of connectivity. It also provides easy entry points to find resources of interest using their Wikipedia names in DBpedia and through it in the LOD network.
FactForge Inference
Performing inference against multiple datasets from LOD is not a trivial task. This page provides information about the specific reasoning approach undertaken in FactForge. This includes the selected entailment semantics and optimizations of the inference processes.
The reasonability criteria for FactForge are defined with respect to OWL 2 RL. FactForge allows forward-chaining, e.g. entailment and consistency checking within O(n.log(n)) space and time. The integrated dataset of FactForge is consistent with respect to OWL 2 RL. Most of the results of the inference comply with common sense without specific assumptions about the context of interpretation.
Entailment Semantics
The entailment semantics uses forward-chaining to materialize the statements which could be entailed from the explicit data in FactForge based on the ontologies used by the data publishers. Reasoning is performed in BigOWLIM with respect to ruleset owl-max of OWLIM, which delivers a combination of RDFS with incomplete OWL Lite. The approach of Herman ter Horst to support the semantics of the OWL primitives in a tractable logical fragment is used in the form of Datalog-like Horn clauses. The various dialects of OWL are described here.
The standard reasoning behavior of OWLIM is to update the deductive closure upon committing of a transaction to the repository. When new statements are introduced, the new explicit statements are added to the repository in addition to the existing explicit statements that have come from previous transactions and their closure. Forward-chaining is performed with respect to the rules from the selected rule-set. It infers and adds to the repository all statements that are inferable from the repository in its current state. This allows for efficient incremental updates of the deductive closure. Consistency checking is performed, applying the checking rules after adding all new statements and updating the deductive closure. When statements are deleted, the deductive closure is updated in order to withdraw statements that cannot be inferred from the new state of the repository.
Reasoning Optimizations
Bellow we present several optimizations which speed up the loading, inference and query evaluation in FactForge.
owl:sameAs optimization
owl:sameAs is a predicate which is used to encode that two different URIs denote one and the same resource. Most often, it is used to align the different identifiers of one and the same real-world entity across different datasets and data-sources. owl:sameAs is heavily used for linking the different datasets in Linking Open Data initiative, LOD, and can be considered as the most important OWL predicate when it comes to merging data from different data sources. Here are its effects.
The URI of Vienna in DBpedia is http://dbpedia.org/page/Vienna, while in Geonames its URI is http://sws.geonames.org/2761369/. In DBpedia, there is a statement
(S1) dbpedia:Vienna owl:sameAs geonames:2761369
which declares that the two URIs are equivalent.
According to the formal definition of OWL 2 RL, whenever two URIs are declared to be equivalent, all statements which involve one of them, should be "replicated" with the other URI as well. The inferencing process goes as follows.
The city of Vienna with URI http://sws.geonames.org/2761369/ in Geonames is defined as part of the first-order administrative division in Austria with the same name and with URI http://www.geonames.org/2761367/. It on its turn is part of the country Austria with URI http://www.geonames.org/2782113. This makes for the following RDF statements:
(S2) geonames:2761369 gno:parentFeature geonames:2761367 (S3) geonames:2761367 gno:parentFeature geonames:2782113
As gno:parentFeature is a transitive relationship, in the course of the initial inference, OWLIM will derive that the city of Vienna is also part of Austria, e.g.:
(S4) geonames:2761369 gno:parentFeature geonames:2782113
Due to the semantics of owl:sameAs, OWLIM will infer in the subsequent inference from (S1) that statements (S2) and (S4) also hold for Vienna, when it is referred to with its DBpedia URI, e.g.:
(S5) dbpedia:Vienna gno:parentFeature geonames:2761367 (S6) dbpedia:Vienna gno:parentFeature geonames:2782113
Considering that Austria also has equivalent URI in DBpedia, e.g.
(S7) geonames:2782113 owl:sameAs dbpedia:Austria
OWLIM will also infer that:
(S8) dbpedia:Vienna gno:parentFeature dbpedia:Austria (S9) dbpedia:Austria gno:parentFeature dbpedia:Austria
and that
(S10) geonames:2761369 gno:parentFeature dbpedia:Austria (S11) geonames:2761367 gno:parentFeature dbpedia:Austria
All these facts are true and ensure obtaining the same results when querying RDF Data regardless which of the equivalent URIs was used in the explicit statement.
It is thus clear that the equivalence operator owl:sameAs generates plenty of new statements even for equivalence declared between just two URIs in two distinct datasets. There are 7 new statements generated just by the single declarations of equivalence between Vienna in DBpedia and Vienna in Geonames, and between Austria in DBpedia and Austria in Geonames which makes for 175% increase of the dataset. The number of explicit and implicit statements will vastly increase as equivalences are declared between URIs in additional datasets. As an equivalence operator, owl:sameAs is transitive, reflexive, and symmetric, thus, a set of N equivalent URIs will generate N2 owl:sameAs statement between each pair of those. For instance, Vienna has an URI also in UMBEL which is also declared equivalent to the URI in DBpedia. This will make for another 4 additional implicit statements.
Although owl:sameAs is useful for interlinking RDF datasets, its semantics causes considerable inflation of the number of implicit facts that should be considered during inference and query evaluation. This has performance implications and requires optimization.
The loading of FactForge takes considerable benefits from a specific feature of the BigTRREE engine, which allows it to handle owl:sameAs statements efficiently. In its indices, each set of equivalent URIs (equivalence class with respect to owl:sameAs) is presented by a single super-node. So, BigTRREE can still enumerate all statements that should be inferred through the equivalence, but it does not have to inflate its indices. This approach can be considered as a sort of partial materialization. However, BigOWLIM takes special care to make sure that this trick does not hinder the ability to distinguish explicit from implicit statements.
This optimization allows OWLIM to efficiently handle large datasets where owl:sameAs is extensively used. In the case of FactForge, this technique allows OWLIM to deal with more than 7 billion statements at the computational costs required for 860 million statements.
RDFS and OWL "performance optimization"
Several features of the standard semantics of RDFS and OWL inflate the number of statements that have to be considered during materialization and/or query evaluation. These are:
<X,rdf:type,rdf:Resource> and <P,rdf:type,rdf:Property> should be inferred for all URIs which appear as subjects in triples and for all predicates of statements; <X,rdf:type,owl:Thing> and <X,owl:sameAs,X> should be inferred for each URI in a subject position; owl:Thing and owl:Nothing have to be asserted to be super- and sub-classes of all classes
These features make the semantics of these languages self-contained and to some extent better grounded, allowing some wonderful meta-reasoning capabilities. However, they "produce" statements, which are out of interest for most of the applications and usage scenarios. Effectively, they add an extra 3 statements for each URI in an RDF graph.
Given that in FactForge there are on average 3.5 explicit statements per URI, these 3 extra statements per URI appear as an unjustified overhead, especially with their limited utility. Thus, FactForge is loaded with the "partialRDFS" parameter of OWLIM which suppresses the inference of these extra statements coming from the features of the semantics of RDFS and OWL.
We have also "switched off" the RDFS rules which derive types of resources based on domains and ranges of properties, because plenty of properties are used without regard (or knowledge) about their formal definitions. For instance, foaf:img has domain foaf:Person, but it is often used denote images of all types of resources. The effect of this change in the result set was that OWLIM inferred 446 million statements less.

Posted on 09/03/2003 8:25:54 AM PDT by Pubbie
North Carolina. Democratic Sen. John Edwards is expected to announce within two weeks that he will not run for re-election to the Senate so that he can focus on his struggling White House bid.
Last week, former South Carolina Gov. Jim Hunt (D), a key Edwards supporter, predicted Edwards would drop out of the Senate race when he officially declares his candidacy for president Sept. 16, in his hometown of Robbins, N.C.
Several Democrats may run if Edwards opts not to seek a second Senate term. They include former White House chief of staff Erskine Bowles, who lost to GOP Sen. Elizabeth Dole last year, and former state Rep. Dan Blue, who lost to Bowles in the 2002 primary. The Democratic nominee would likely face Republican Rep. Richard
Burr, who has close to $3.5 million in his campaign war chest.

You should vote where you live. No need sinking to the opposition's level.
Nope. a decommisioned Battleship. The way Kerry did yesterday. What a dolt.
Fred Flintstone is definitely available. A staffer at the DNC said so.
Where is Hillary, anyway?
Will it be Erskine vs. Blue again? Or are Congressmen Etheridge and/or McIntyre interested?
I'm guessing the congresscritters will stay put for now. State treasurer Richard Moore, Rat golden boy, may run. Bowles is definitely interested, as is Blue; a 3-way primary would be very interesting and winnable for each.
Oh, wow . . . is Gantt still active? I have heard zip about him or Jim Hunt running, and Gantt, at least, has to be getting up there.
Maybe newscaster Sonja Gantt will run :)
(she is Harvey's daughter)
Hey, that's my dream come true, but I'll share.
Are you trying to give me a stroke?????
Oh, dear.
not to mention Suzette Rhee and Patty Pan
I love watching the local news in Charlotte!!!
Ashley is indeed a conservative feminist. Think Susan B. Anthony. Haven't pinned her down on abortion yet but she's solid on a lot of stuff, very New South, if you will.
Some much needed good news on the Senate front. Although I think Burr would beat Johnny Bravo it's easier if Johnny drops out.

Posted on 06/25/2010 5:43:28 PM PDT by Kid Shelleen
Violence erupted at a King of Prussia construction site Wednesday, and today, police are seeking the public's help to apprehend some bat-wielding assailants. --snip-- The victims said they were blocked by numerous union protesters from entering the construction site, and so they drove to the mall area to await police assistance.
A short time later, a black sedan pulled up and several men exited with baseball bats, ran up to the two trucks and repeatedly slammed the bats into the windows. As the workers exited the trucks, at least two were then physically assaulted with the baseball bats
(Excerpt) Read more at philly.com ...
Thats what .45's are for.
I pictured shoppers at the mall being attacked by a cloud of bats!
I hope the perps are caught, but I fear they'll have good union provided lawyers.
Probably Obama bats furnished to the AFL-CIO.
That was my take as well. LOL!
Wonder if they're practicing for the elections on November 2?
"Thats what .45s are for."
I've always thought it was stupid for states to have rear license plates only. Here's a good reason for having them on the front, too. I imagine these guys took off before the guy could get a good pic of that back of the car. (Assuming they didn't cover the rear ones or remove them.)
Or SEIU. Both are the brownshirts of Herr Obamas army.
Or the victims could have marked the car. A 12 gauge loaded with OO Buck would have done a good job.
Is it illegal to carry a concealed weapon in a polling place? I mean for those of us who are not black panthers.
The Union Thugs have been emboldened by this jacka$$ in the White house. Pretty scary, one of many scary situations these days.
A couple of miles from the site of Altemose construction site riot of June, 1972: http://books.google.com/books?id=5QVz3n8724IC&pg=PA359&lpg=PA359&dq=altemose+,+Valley+Forge+Sheraton,+construction+worker+riot&source=bl&ots=fzHCmkpvkC&sig=yFLeBCTBDytrzmwXW8iseJgyhxY&hl=en&ei=ulElTJD_IoaglAeD5K2yAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=2&ved=0CBYQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q&f=false
The OSHA inspector on the job stated he was only concerned if they used aluminum bats; as they are considered dangerous now.
Good one!
Oooh, me likey. Please, what is that ??
Oooh, me likey. Please, what is that ??
Gah...I'm a union electrician...these union thugs needed to be shot...totally justifed self defense...
Just a standard Rem. 870 with the factory folding stock.
Or as I like to describe it "My really heavy handgun".
Me too.
That would be a "Man bites dog" story. The one we got was just another boring Union thug story.
A few warning shots through the skull would probably have changed the thugs' minds.
Great mall. I go there annually for a swim meet at the Upper Main Line Y.
Rem or Mossberg 500 JIC? About to buy my first gun.
I've had lots of both. Currently, have 3 500's and only 1 870 (and a couple of Win. 1200's which are a great in-between arm).
Are you going to shoot the hell out of it? Get an 870, you'll enjoy the quality difference. Defense/survival on a budget? The 500 will never let you down, and you can spend the $ you save on extra ammo.
Choked too.
I was always a dynamite man myself...
I was going to look that up, too. I was visiting my folks in the 'burbs west of Philly during college in the summer of '72 and remember the union violence well. Some things never change. Weren't there lots of burnings of construction equipment the summer before, too, leading up to the riot?
The Mossberg has a tang safety which can be switched on or off without removing your hand from the firing position.
The Mossberg has a superior loading gate through which shells can be fed without the possibility of catching ones fingers or shells in that piece of steel inherent to the Remington.
This is especially important in the dark.
The Mossberg comes factory drilled and tapped for a scope or optical sights.
Now I'm a fan of the 870 for hunting purposes. But for social work, I feel the Mossberg is superior.
Pennsylvania is a stupid state as it only has one license plate per car, usually on the back. This makes it easy for perps to get away and speeding so that it is hard to read the back license plate.
Two plates would make it easier for eyewitnesses to have two chances to see the license numbers.
Remember, this is a state run by "Fast Eddy" Rendell. Tell me he isn't labored up? Would love to know if he had mob connections when he ran Philly? A Scarfo-boy, perhaps?
I may research the legality of carrying to the polling place before I vote in November. Then again ... what the hell, a tiny little KelTec can't be any harm, can it?
Why does it have a modified choke in it? Ordinarily one would use a cylinder choke for social work.
My first thought exactly.
Not one of these knuckleheads was armed?
South Carolina is rear plates only.
As well as Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and West Virginia.
I agree with the .45, I loved to see how many more of these attacks occur after a few of these UNION THUGS are buried and the shooters are not charged. Since a bat is a weapon killing them would be justified. Unions have become so anti-american.
Peoples Republic of California has two plates - in practice if you spend all your time in one of the big cities, a rear plate only won't attract a ticket.
Urban cops mostly have bigger fish to fry.
However once you get out on the interstate, you're fair game without a front plate.
That said, I saw union pickets out near the mall recently when I drove through the area. They had a huge inflated rat which they posted outside an offending construction site on North Gulph Road. They had positioned it so that it was intruding into the roadway. When I complained about the traffic hazard to the local police department, they were very familiar with the union rat, and told me there had been a lot of protests over non-union labor there recently. Perhaps it's the same bunch.
Thanks. Defense/survival in case of TEOTWAWKI. Hopefully, it stays in a gun safe with a ton of ammo, oatmeal, and peanut butter.

But not according to GE.
After 3 months of putting up with dishes coming out of the dishwasher with food deposited all over them, I had a GE service tech come out and take a look at it. He looked at the level of water in the unit, and immediately told me that it didn't have enough water in it, and that the pressure in the supply line must have been too high, and that that probably damaged the valve. He ordered a replacement valve.
The tech they sent, a week or so later, to replace the valve, took one look at the water level and said it was fine, and that the pressure in the supply line must have been too low. He also demonstrated (to me, at least) a thorough lack of familiarity with the machine -- he laboriously removed a whole panel to get at the valve, not realizing the panel had access holes in it to make removing and replacing the valve a 10 minute job (it took him about 20 minutes alone to remove the panel).
The original valve was fine, of course. There was no need to replace it. And there was no change in the sorry way the dishwasher performed after the valve replacement.
So, on to the third tech. He came, looked, said everything was fine, and that we just had to scrape and rinse all the dishes we put into the machine. I thought that was very interesting, in that it states exactly the opposite in the instruction manual (page 7), and in GE's TV ads and, as I mentioned above, that my neighbor with the same machine doesn't have to do it.
In fact, anyone who knows anything about dishwashers knows that dishwashing detergents today are formulated to work with food residue, because they utilize (and need) the oils present to prevent etching from occurring on glassware.
Fed up with the unprofessionalism and lies, I called GE customer service. They intimated to me that if I wrote and mailed (no calls or emails accepted) a letter describing the problems I'd been having with the unit to GE Appliances Headquarters, in Kentucky, I'd probably have a replacement unit sent to me and installed. They certainly didn't tell me that would happen for sure, but made it clear that that's what I would need to do to clear up my problem, and that that approach almost always got the customer what he or she wanted.
So, I wrote to GE, and gave them all the information I've recounted above, hoping GE considered customer satisfaction somewhat important.
Apparently, it isn't. After hearing nothing for almost a month, I called GE customer service again and asked if anyone had any knowledge of the letter I had sent (I know they received it, as it was sent certified). They told me that, yes, they received the letter and had reviewed the matter, and that the dishwasher was working as designed, and they would not do anything else for me. They told me that they had tried to call, but that my phone was busy, so they were sending me a letter notifying me of the same. (This, in itself, was interesting, because I work out a home office, and the number they would have called me on has call waiting, so I never miss any calls another GE lie?)
The letter they sent arrived about 2 weeks later, and it said the same, basically, We appreciate your comments and value you as a GE customer, however, do not feel it is appropriate to offer further concessions in this instance. If we can be of assistance in the future, do not hesitate to contact us.
This is outrageous. I have a new GE dishwasher that works worse than a worn-out old GE dishwasher. I can compare its performance to an identical unit, same age, not two households distance from me. I've had three different GE technicians give me three different diagnoses to the problem, none demonstrating any knowledge or expertise. And GE tells me everything is normal.
The unit is obviously, and demonstrably, a LEMON! I told GE Customer Service that we have Lemon Laws here in Texas, and the person on the phone told me it didn't apply to them, since they were in Kentucky.
So, I'm sending the info above to the Kentucky Attorney General's Office, and to the Better Business Bureau. I don't know if I'll get this horrible mistake of a dishwasher replaced, but I'm going out of my way to tell all my neighbors and friends to stay away from GE dishwashers unless they want the treatment I'm getting.
Sad. I remember when GE used to be a good company.

I am in love with this piece. I love the fabric, and the weight of the bag. I was so excited while sewing I missed every opportunity to add the outside zipper, tabs for handles and even a magnetic closer. :) I did manage to align my side seams perfectly as well as add a zipper pocket and slot pockets to the lining. Overall it was fun. Thank you Brett for teaching this class. I have learned to make notes of the things I should do before I sew the exterior pieces together.
You sound like an experienced sewer who has put this on as a joke! NOT funny!
Hi, no I am not experienced. This actually was my first time attempting to make a bag with zippers and tabs for straps. I got so into watching how to construct the bag on the video segment until I realized I missed including the zipper and handles. I am going to try this again but I will be sure to take my time and think it through. Thanks for commenting.
This reminds me of mine! I love this fabric! Show more pix when handles are on!

Andasol 3
The solar thermal power plant Andasol 3 is situated in the South of Spain and has been realised by Stadtwerke München and RWE Innogy in conjunction with Ferrostaal, RheinEnergie and Solar Millennium. The power plant has an installed capacity of about 50 megawatts, and is jointly operated by the project partners.
Andasol 3 is the third solar thermal power plant to be installed in the Spanish province of Granada by Solar Millennium. The neighbouring projects Andasol 1 and Andasol 2, which each have an electrical output of around 50 megawatts, are already connected to the grid. The power plants, which are almost identical in their construction, have a collector surface area of over 1.5 million square metres – equal to the surface area of approximately 210 football fields.
Thermal storage system for generating electricity day and night
At the Andasol 3 site more than 210,000 parabolic mirrors capture the sunlight. These six metres wide, arched mirrors concentrate the sun's rays to heat a transfer fluid. Then, through heat exchanging devices the thermal energy is transferred to a water/steam circuit. As in a conventional power station, this steam drives a turbine that in turn drives a generator, which produces electricity.
The Andasol 3 plant also has a thermal storage system, comprising of 30,000 tonnes of a special salt mixture. This can continue to run the turbine for 8 hours at full load, and is therefore able to reliably generate electricity even after the sun has set.
Functional principle
If you ever have held a magnifying glass in the sun, you know how it works: the lens concentrates the rays to produce temperatures high enough to ignite paper. Parabolic trough power plants work on the same principle, but concentrate the sun's rays with enormous curved mirrors. The 12-metre-long and roughly 6-metre-wide parabolic mirrors focus the sunlight onto an absorber tube, the 'receiver'. Inside this vacuum-insulated tube flows a heat transfer fluid, usually oil, that the sun can heat to temperatures of up to 400 degrees Celsius. The hot oil is used to generate steam in a heat exchanger – and the steam then drives a turbine in a conventional power plant where a generator produces electricity.
What makes solar thermal plants like Andasol so special is the attached heat store that makes solar electricity available even at night. Liquid salt acts as a heat storage medium that can compensate for short-term fluctuations in production and ensure reliable electricity generation around the clock. When the sun shines, the storage tank is topped up with the hot salt solution. When it's cloudy or during the night, the salt solution releases its heat back into the thermal oil. The thermal storage unit can hold some 28,500 tonnes of the salt mixture; the capacity is sufficient for over seven hours of full load operation. That means these plants can generate almost twice as much electricity as a solar power plant without a thermal storage system.
The solar thermal power plant Andasol 3 in the south of Spain is realised by the project company Marquesado Solar S.L. Stadtwerke München has a 48.9% share in this company. RWE Innogy and RheinEnergie jointly hold 25.1% of the shares via an investment holding company (Andasol AS 3 Beteiligungs GmbH: RWE Innogy: 51%, RheinEnergie: 49%). The remaining 26% of the project company are equal shared owned by Ferrostaal Industrial Projects GmbH and the Andasol 3 Kraftwerks GmbH.

As it has turned out, she had been making payments based upon over-the-limit fees that were added to her account one day after each previous bill was sent out. Consequently, each time she made the payment on the bill she had received, it would bring the account balance down to her limit. However, without her realizing it, the bank would attach the finance fee automatically putting her over her limit and supposedly justifying the over-the-limit fee. When I checked the dates that the fees had been applied, they didn't make any sense.
We attemted to call the bank listed to find out what could be done to straighten out the account and stop these needless fees and get the balance below her limit. It took us four days and calls to three different banks plus one e-mail to another before we could find out which one was actually handling her account and get the correct phone number (We were unable to reach the appropriate party using the numbers on her card and bill). By that time it was the due date and the Rep. that we spoke to was unable to help us plus she was very short and rude especially when we asked to speak with a supervisor. We finally got a name but were unable to talk with the supervisor until the next day.
Now the bill was over due. In speaking with her(Denise), and trying to get an understanding of why there system was set-up in such an unusual manner and, at the same time, trying to get some forgiveness on the over limit fees plus, now being in a position of dealing with a late fee, we failed to get any straight and understandable explanations concerning the billing procedures. On top of the problems concerning the fees, this particular bill did not get delivered until Saturday June 26th '04 and was due on July 6th.
According to the Federal Trade Commission, the consumer must receive their bill at least 20 days before the due date. Consequently, considering the 4th of July holiday this gave Jody and I very little time to contact the correct bank. Finally, after all that we went through, Denise agreed to credit two of the over limit fees and stated (reluctently) that the late fee would be taken care of. On top of this, Jody made a $35.00 payment over the phone while Denise stated that the minimum payment was only $10.00. Factoring in the credits that were to be given plus the payment that was made, Jody should have ended up at least $30.00 under her limit.
This is not how it all ended up as we discovered when the next bill arrived. As it turned out, the payment was credited the same day but the fees that were to be credited were not entered until six days later plus there was no credit given for the late fee. Needless to say, we were stunned and very upset because now we were right back where we started only it has become worse since. Once again we attempted to call Denise but, she wasn't available according to the Rep.(Hazel) that we spoke to in August. By the time I spoke to Hazel the new bill was already over due because I had misread the bill, thinking that it was not due until the 6th when actually it was due 0n the 1st. Since we were not able to speak with Denise, we decided to pay the minimum due which Hazel stated was $11.00. This didn't make any sense either because of the fees that had been attached.
Also, while talking with Hazel, I mentioned how late we had received the previous bill. Again I was stunned when she replied, "We are not responsible for when the Postal Service delivers the mail", in a rude and cold hearted tone. Since then we have had no contact with this bank and have been trying to find out exactly what steps would be appropriate to take in order to find out just exactly what our, or rather, Jody's rights are. We are tired of being lied to and treated rudely and dismayed after receiving the most recent bill that states that the minimum payment is $96.74 with an overdue amount of $11.00 and all this over a Spiegel credit card that has a credit limit of $350.00.
Considering all the over limit fees that have been paid and including the extra regular payments that have been paid from the time of the original banks own problems to this date, by all rights the balance of the card should be paid off. Unfortunately, that is not how the ripoff system sees it or how it works, at least with this bank!!! I have dealt with a good number of credit card providers over the past eight years and never have I faced anything as dubious and uncooperative as this one.
Instead of helping Jody solve the problem, I am afraid that I have only made it worse for her and neither of us, as it is with many other people out there, needs this type of frustration and stress especially since we are both disabled. We would highly appreciate any suggestions that anyone with the appropriate knowledge can relay to us and I apologize for the length of this report but I could not think of a way to make it shorter and be completely honest about the situation. Thank you for the patience applied to anyone who chooses to read it in it's entirety.

OBJECTIVES:To determine how baseline functional status affects health outcomes in older adults with diabetes mellitus (DM).
DESIGN:Nationally representative cross-sectional and longitudinal health interview survey.
SETTING:Waves I (1993) and II (1995) of the Assets and Health Dynamics of the Oldest Old Survey (AHEAD) in the United States.
PARTICIPANTS:AHEAD respondents aged 70 and older (n = 7,447, including 995 with DM).
MEASUREMENTS:At baseline, the entire sample was divided into three groups: high-functioning group, defined as having no physical limitations or instrumental activities of daily living/activities of daily living (IADL/ADL) disabilities (39%); low-functioning group, having three or more limitations or IADL/ADL disabilities (24%); and intermediate-functioning group, those in the middle (36%). Older adults with and without DM, within each of the functioning groups, were compared at 2-year follow-up with respect to demographic characteristics, weight/body mass index, baseline and incident chronic diseases and conditions, and follow-up functioning.
RESULTS:Of people aged 70 and older, 28% with DM and 41% without were high functioning; 38% with DM and 22% without were low functioning (both P< .001). High-functioning people with DM remained high functioning at 2 years but had a significantly higher incidence of heart disease and mortality than high-functioning people without DM. Low-functioning people with DM were significantly more likely to have vascular comorbidities at baseline than low-functioning people without DM, but their 2-year outcomes were similar. The intermediate-functioning group showed the most differences between those with and without DM; those with DM were significantly (P< .01) more likely to have baseline vascular disease, low cognitive performance, increased incident vascular disease, and significantly worse 2-year functioning and to have experienced falls (P< .001).
CONCLUSION:Differences in baseline functional status in older adults with DM were associated with outcome differences. High-functioning older people with DM tended to remain high functioning but demonstrated significantly higher incidence of heart disease and mortality than those without DM, whereas low-functioning people with and without DM had similar outcomes. However, intermediate-functioning older diabetics had worse health and functioning outcomes than a similarly impaired group without DM. DM management adjusted to functional status can potentially address the most-relevant outcomes in the heterogeneous older population with DM.

Now this is fantasy football stuff here.
Outs and how much I would expect to get for them
Diego Cavalieri 3mil
Andriy Voronin 3mil
Fabio Aurelio 3.5mil
Sotirios Kyrgiakos 1mil
Ryan Babel 6.5mil
Philipp Degen 2mil
Damien Plessis .5mil
Charles Itandje 1mil
Nabil El Zhar 1.5mil
Andrea Dossena 4mil
total: 30.5
Then add another 30mil transfer budget (you'd expect at least), so 60.5 mil.
Firstly lets replace the players who have been sold.
Cavalieri - promote david martin to the first team. The reserve keeper rarely gets a chance so would be happy with him playing in the carling cup and maybe good prove to be a good young english keeper.
Voronin - Well lets spend some of that cash and get a decent striker in. I would like to see Edin Dzeko from Wolfsburg. 18mil.
Fabio Aurelio - We have insua and I will get to another left back when I get to dossena.
Sotirios Kyrgiakos - Ideally Raul Albiol but real madrid have just bought him so would be asking a ridiculous price. So I too would go with Per Mertesacker. Carra would then be the 4th choice centre back like Hyypia last year. Ideally he would take a player coach role. 10 mlil.
Ryan Babel - Juan Mata. 12mil.
Philipp Degen - We have Martin Kelly to replace Degen.
Damien Plessis - I am sure we could find another player in the reserves. Victor Palsson looks decent.
Charles Itandje - Either Peter Gulacsi or Dean Bouzanis could step up as 3rd choice keeper.
Nabil El Zhar - Is on the fringes so doesn't really need replacing.
Andrea Dossena - straight swap for john arne riise. Yes I am saying bring him back, even after we found why he never shoots with his right foot. He is still a decent left back and can easily play left mid as well if we get hit buy a few injuries/suspensions.
Thats 40mil spent leaving 20.5mil.
I would push kuyt back up top meaning we had 4 strikers again in Torres, Dzeko, Kuyt and Ngog.
This allows Gerrard to move back to centre mid. Gerrard, Lucas, Masch and Aquaman would be our 4 centre midfielders with spearing when we our short of numbers.
In defence we would have Johnson and Kelly at right back. Insua and riise at left back. Agger, Skrtel, Mertesacker and Carra at centre back. In reserve we would have Ayala, San Jose and Kelly who could also play there.
So really all we need now is wingers. We would already have Riera, Benayoun and Mata. (Riise could also play there). I think another 2 wingers would do it. I think we could get quaresma on the cheap, say 7-8 mil. So that would leave 12.5- 13.5mil. For that I think we could get Gourcouff (sp?) from Bordeaux.
There you go Leo, hope that does it for you and actually I retract the statement that this is fantasy football as it seems quite realistic.

Also add to that squad Nemeth, Pacheco and Eccleston who I would expect to get chances next season. Maybe even Dalla Valle and Amoo as well.

nestrov would be 3 choice keeper. he is better than cavaleri but not a star.l
S hatskikh is Uzbek Schevchenko. he scored 30 goals in 46 games for Uzbek natioal team. But he would be 4 choice striker and i admit he isnt exactly Fernando Torres.
But Djeparov would be back up for Gerrard since he probably best mid Asia. BUt please someone post their choices of transfers
This list might not be as far fetched as you may think. Just picked this link of the official forums. Of course it could be just paper talk again though.

well i would rather have an establihsed goalkeeper than one who MAY turn out to be good. We have been there before with carson and kirkland and I dont really want us havving to go through that again. Anyway, we have two promising young keeper in Peter Gulacsi and Dean Bouzanis.
That isnt the question i asked though, I asked why get rid of aquilani before even see him playing? Plus they dont even play in the same position, Aquaman is primarily a centre midfielder whereas schweinsteiger is more of a winger, or at least and attacking midfielder more suited to the left or right rather than centre midfield. I would much rather have both in my team.
I will post my transfers at some point mate, i am at work as well. I dont really know if i'll put transfer fees down but I will post my ins and outs...it's going to be a bit fantasy football as I djust dont think we have the funds (even generated by sales) to make all these transfers possible.

so you would get rid of reina, rated one of the best keepers inb the world? and also aquilani without even seeing him play? bit ridiclous if you ask me.

Maybe I'm not reading this right, but assuming you get the deals your talking about, that's still a net layout of ₤93M. Where are we getting that kind of cash? And do you really think the new squad is almost ₤100M better than what we've already got?

he gave me a very big exageration of what they could do for meand then he asked me if for my creditcard number I gave it to him since I knew by what he said I would make up my investment with his help in a short time.He told me I had three days to review the material and decide if I wanted to keep it so when I recived it I didnt like it and called for a refund I told them I had just recived it and I still had one more day they told me my three days where over and I had to pay a 15 percent fee even though what I had recived was just a piece of paper and some software which I didnt open.
So time past by and in November my dada found out about this because he read my statement and was very upset so he and I went to the bank and we faxed a report they told me to send the package to the company I did the next day I didnt hear about them.I then emailed them and told them I was going to sue them I got a call from a guy the next day telling me it would cost too much so I guess he convinced me by telling me he would even help me himself! but ofcourse never did.I never recived anything of what I sent to them even though they told me they would send it to me again so I could start over.So On aug,1,2007 I called the creditcard company and I talked to a manager she told me how important money is even if its a few dolars and that what I paid for this 1545.00 is way too much and that I need to tell them straight up I need my money back and if they dont give it to me Im gonna get a lawyer and Im not just gonna get my refund but a nice chunk of more money and that what Im gonna do she totally changed my attitude Im gonna show them I have brass b***s and Im not gonna take it anymore this company needs someone to teach them a lesson and show them that what they do to people is unaceptable.I dont care what it costs me Im gonna bring them to justice I have been unemployed and have barely afforded the monthly payments on my creditcard and for what?Please dont make the same mistake I DID i WISH i COULD GO BACK AND CHANGE THIS BUT GOD SEES EVERYTHING AND IM SURE HE WILL DO JUSTICE YOU CAN TRUST ON THAT!

New today from the Century: John Buchanan on sustaining the Century, Lee Hull Moses on being surprised by volunteers, more.
Two weeks ago, I was in my office getting ready for worship when a church member stopped by with a cherry tomato. A small, single tomato, which he handed to me. Then he pointed out my window toward the front yard of the church. "We've got a couple of tomato plants growing out there," he said.
Yes, I'm the pastor. Yes, I've been praying the prayer since childhood. Yes, I lead the prayer every Sunday.
Still, it was bound to happen.
My wife and I are flying out today, over Boston, the city where marriage equality got its start. We are flying out over Old South Church, the place where we were married. We are flying into California, a place where yesterday morning our marriage wasn't legal. And we are flying to General Synod, the biannual meeting of the United Church of Christ, the church that recognized our marriage before the federal government ever did.
In Vacation Bible School you don't simply tell Bible stories, you inhabit them. This is the greatest share of the work, creating visual spaces where children can experience a Bible story. This year I made a throne in the sanctuary to help the children visualize the day courageous Esther appeared before the King in an attempt to save her people. (The foam swords added a special touch!)
In the ancient city of Laodicea in western Turkey, site of the church reprimanded in the book of Revelation for being "neither cold nor hot," our guide led us across the old agora to a pile of broken columns. One had a fascinating marking. A menorah had been scratched onto the stone, and next to it was inscribed a cross. What did this mean?
New today from the Century: Melissa Tabeek on Syrian Christian refugees in Lebanon, David Heim on layers of faith in Turkey, more.
One key challenge for churches in the North Dakota oil boom is how to respond to the needs of many new residents. Jay Reinke, pastor of Concordia Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, runs a program out of his church called the Overnighters
New today from the Century: The editors on the idolatry of security, James Howell reviews Augustine Thompson, more.
It begins in February. Parents scour websites in the often-competitive sport of hunting for summer camp options. The goal is to keep our children happy, occupied and perhaps even learning something during the long summer.
Summer camps are a relatively new invention, introduced in the early 20th century.

How to Conquer the Morning Before the WeddingFebruary 1st, 2016
Pre-wedding jitters can send the most level-headed bride on an emotional whirlwind. A serious case of the butterflies can make getting to the altar feel more like running a marathon. However, with a little preparation you'll be able to stay on schedule and have a peaceful morning before your wedding. Follow these simple steps to help make the morning of your Special Day enjoyable and stress-free!
Get your beauty rest
Start your morning off right by taking it easy the night before your wedding. Implement a two drink maximum and err on the side of caution when it comes to trying new foods. Save yourself from having to deal with a nagging hangover or food poisoning. Treat yourself to a bubble bath at the end of the night and then hit the sack early. You have a big day ahead of you!
Create an action plan
You won't have a successful morning if you don't plan for it! Set a schedule, get it on paper and make sure everyone has it on hand. Whether it be brunch or hair and makeup, clearly outline what needs to get done and when.
Practice meditation or yoga
Rise early for a 30-minute yoga session. This will help you clear your mind and focus on the present moment. Your bridesmaids will probably feel antsy as well so invite them to join in. If you can't imagine squeezing a yoga session into your jam packed schedule, try a quick round of meditation. Make an effort to sit quietly and simply breathe for 10 minutes. Your mind and body will thank you!
It isn't everyday that you get to say "I do" to Mr. or Mrs. Right, so revel in the special moments leading up to your wedding. Remember, amidst all of the chaos your dream guy will be waiting at the end of the aisle!
See you soon,
Paula & Martin Ramirez
Martin and Paula Ramirez are the proprietors of Historic Mankin Mansion Wedding Resort. They enjoy opening their hearts & home to host countless happy couples on their most special day. They have lovingly created a private wedding estate like no other and are honored to share their dream with so many beautiful couples!

"Washing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful
and the powerless means to side with the powerful."
Paolo Freire
Dissatisfaction with institutions grew as the exposés of the 1960s made it clear that the institutions were failing to meet even the most basic needs of the people they were intended to serve. The exposés of the 1960s were capped in 1972 when ABC News reporter Geraldo Rivera visited the Willowbrook State School on Staten Island in New York, the same facility visited by Robert Kennedy in 1965. The program, Willowbrook: The Last Great Disgrace, was seen by millions of viewers. A former doctor at the institution reported that conditions had only become worse since the 1960s.

Kell Brook Vows: I Will End The Hatton Fighting Name!
By Edward Chaykovsky
Undefeated WBA Inter-Continental welterweight champion Kell Brook (26-0, 18KOs) has vowed to end the Hatton legacy on March 17th at Motorpoint Arena in Sheffield. Brook faces Matthew Hatton (42-5-2, 16KOs) with the IBF International title also at stake. As BoxingScene.com reported last week, the fight was bridged with a drunken prank phone call from Hatton, who reached out to Brook around Christmas time.
Brook said: "I missed Matt's call but his message said 'come and fight me'. I knew he was drunk and deleted it. His call came when he was full of Christmas spirit and there's no problem between us. There's a lot of respect but when I'm wearing my gloves Matt will not be able to cope with my power or speed. Ricky was an unbelievable fighter. They can carry on being promoters but their fighting name will be finished," Brook told The Sun.
the Hatton name ended when Ricky piled face first into the turnbuckle from being knocked silly from a Mayweather punch he never saw coming. Matthew Hatton is a second tier fighter by British standards. Man up and fight a world…Comment by BartBears on 01-16-2012
