5 Meaningless Words That Trick You Into Buying Bad Food
#2. "Select"
As Seen on Packages Of:
Safeway Select Frozen Cheese Enchiladas, 7-Eleven Select Hot Dog Potato Chips, Select Pesto Sauce, Campell's Select Harvest Vegetable Soup, Meijer Creamy Select Frosting
Welcome to the future. Gone are the days when you have to choke down regular old frozen dinners just because "that's what everyone else eats" or "they're FDA approved." This meal has been selected and customized exclusively for your consumption. You like butter? We already knew that, and that's why we included a bunch of it. Hate metal filings? Again, we've been paying attention and ensured that this frozen dinner wouldn't even approach noticeable levels. You're welcome. The selection process was rigorous -- we sorted through hundreds of thousands of ingredients we could have potentially used, and we discarded nearly every single one that was toxic and/or inedible. So what actually made the cut for this product? Hand-picked stuff, we already told you. Stop asking so many questions. It's not like it's horse. It's not like it's 100 percent horse. There are tons of ingredients that aren't horse.

Gelatin, for instanc- Sorry, never mind.
Just for the record, though, it wouldn't be illegal for us to put horse in it. "Select" has a specific meaning for grades of meat, but you're not buying a slab of bison, you're buying fried hunks of potato flavored like a hot dog. We could put anything we want in it, but the point is, we didn't. So stop being rude and eat it.*
*May contain trace amounts of whey, nuts, and horse.
#1. "Premium"
As Seen on Packages Of:
Imperial Garden Premium Quality Microwaveable Eggrolls, Crosse and Blackwell Premium Ham Glaze, S & W Premium Whole Kernel Corn, Hungry Jack Premium Hashbrown Potatoes, Moran's Wholesome Purity Premium Frozen Beef Patties
Who would choose to eat dehydrated hash browns when they could eat opportunity instead? Who would choose to coat a ham in glaze when they could coat it in a better quality of life? Not you, that's for sure, because right now you hold in your hands both a product and potential. That "Premium" label is no mistake: This product is premium to the max. It is overflowing with premium. What does "Premium" mean? It means better. Better than what? Better than a lot of things. Nails and razor blades, to name a few. Paper cuts and dirty bombs, to name a few more. Diesel exhaust, asbestos, botulism, and hantavirus, to name all the rest. But really, we believe in your ability to define it for yourself, just like we believe in your ability to define your own future. We believe in you.
Simone van den Berg/photos.com
And your relentless dedication to the Premium lifestyle.
For us, "Premium" means you can be damn sure that if this product contains spices, we're going to tell you how slow they cooked. If it contains salad, we're going to call it "wild greens." If it contains cheese, we're going to count up all the different kinds and tell you on the label. This isn't just breakfast, lunch, or dinner in this vacuum-sealed pouch, it's an experience, and just like life, not every experience is going to be good or fair. Can we promise that this meal will be delicious or superior to other meals? No, but we can promise that it exists, just like you, and that your collective future hasn't been written yet. You can be whatever you want to be, but here, have some creamed corn before you go so you don't get hungry.
You can find Soren on Twitter or Tumblr and tell him all about how he forgot to include "Natural," "Organic," and "Original" on this list.

WASHINGTON -- A survey shows U.S. companies added fewer jobs in March compared with the previous month, as construction firms held off on hiring after three months of solid gains.
Payroll processor ADP says employers added 158,000 jobs last month, down from February's gain of 237,000 and January's 177,000.
Construction companies didn't add any jobs in March, after average monthly gains of 29,000 in the previous three months. The hiring surge during the previous months likely reflected a jump in rebuilding after Superstorm Sandy.
The ADP report is derived from actual payroll data and tracks total nonfarm private employment each month.
The report suggests that the government's March payroll figures, to be issued Friday, may come in below economists' forecast of 195,000 net jobs.

5 Ways You Sabotage Your Love Life (Explained by Science)
Over the years, I've made a commitment to helping you get laid. And if you followed the advice in those articles, you're probably having some trouble reading this one because the writhing mass of naked bodies you're currently tangled up in won't hold still. So you've got the hot, meaningless sex part down, but studies show that young people are still more interested in relationships than hookups, and, despite the sky-high divorce rate, the vast majority of people still want to get married one day.
Larry Busacca/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
Even Hef's on board.
So, if everyone is wandering around just dying to commit, why is it that you're still alone, crying so much that ocean life could live in the soaked folds of your shirt? Well, chances are ...
#5. You're Looking for a Soul Mate
Stockbyte/Stockbyte/Getty Images
While your grandmother probably prayed that her future husband would be a caring father or know how to raise a barn or just be a supernatural hump machine (pausing to let that image sink in), these days it seems everyone is hoping to find their "soul mate." And while it may sound romantic, in reality trying to find your soul mate can lead to The Last Airbender levels of disappointment.
Ilya S. Savenok/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
"Your concept of romance was already dead."
According to one recent poll, a whopping 73 percent of single Americans in their 20s believe in the idea of a soul mate, and they consider finding that person more important than any other aspect of a relationship, including emotional connection, financial security, and moral stance on beards. And before the guys reading this skip to the next list item, assuming that it must be purely a lady phenomenon, 63 percent of the men polled think that the perfect person is out there for them and expect to find them one day. So suck it, wussy boys.
But the problem with soul mate relationships is that they never live up to the golden, glowing statue we've built in our heads. While couples are obviously capable of meeting and instantly having an intense connection, eventually problems are going to arise in the relationship, mostly because keeping intensity going for long periods of time is exhausting. It's easy to think, "If we were truly soul mates, we wouldn't have any problems at all. This person is obviously a product of Satan's mocking design." At that point, individuals who believe in soul mates are more likely to check out.
Hemera Technologies/AbleStock.com/Getty Images
"Did he laugh at that Adam Sandler trailer? Oh, fuck this."
With this in mind, it should come as no surprise that people who believe in soul mates are statistically more likely to get divorced. The idea that you will "just know" when your soul mate shows up, or even that finding the perfect person is possible, means you might think there is no need to work at your relationship. If you are destined to be together, everything will just figure itself out, and if it doesn't, all you need to do is leave and find your real soul mate. This is like throwing your toddler off of a cruise ship, and if he doesn't make it back to shore, he was never destined to swim -- but that's OK, because you can always just hump up a new one.
#4. You're Dating Online
Jupiterimages/Stockbyte/Getty Images
If you're single and your religion doesn't prohibit you from using computers because they're fueled by the shrieking souls of the damned, you've probably tried Internet dating at some point.
Alija/Vetta/Getty Images
Obviously, exceptions can always be made for sending dick pics.
A decade ago, most people still thought online dating was just for nerds sitting at computers who were incapable of meeting people in real life without first putting on an anime costume and a con badge. Now that the stigma of online dating has virtually disappeared, an estimated 40 million people have tried it. And according to studies, 1 in 5 relationships now starts on a dating website, with one-third of marriages resulting from first connecting digitally.
Those might seem like impressive statistics until you realize that a large percentage of the population is searching for someone special online just as casually as looking up bleeding nipples on Flickr. There are an estimated 54 million single people in the U.S., meaning that if online dating were truly effective, we would be seeing statistics like "75 percent of new relationships begin on the Internet."
Laugh at the spam-bots all you want. You're the one with an OkCupid account.
So why aren't we? According to science, it's the overabundance of choice that makes you less likely to find a good match. You could find someone online who would make a great match for you in real life, but because they have a different religion, or a child, or are trying to build a death ray to enslave humanity, you move on to the next option. It's like not considering an exceptional deal on a used car because you're holding out for a dealer to pay you to take a brand new one off of their hands.
Then there is the fact that profiles are a terrible way to figure out if you are compatible with someone. I know you've already started blaming all those potential life partners for lying on their questionnaires and posting old photos from when they weighed less than a dump truck full of 50 Shades novels. Bad news: It's not them, it's YOU. Science has proven that people are terrible at consciously knowing what attracts them to others. You might claim to like blondes but then only hit on brunettes. Or you might say you want someone with a great sense of humor and then get embarrassed when they arrange their vegetables to look like a cock and balls at your parents' Thanksgiving dinner. Especially if they do it with a human stencil in the same fashion that kids draw hand turkeys.
#3. You're in the Friend Zone
Jupiterimages/Stockbyte/Getty Images
Regardless of how hard the phrase makes us roll our eyes, there is, in fact, a Friend Zone. It occurs, shockingly enough, whenever a man and a woman become friends. Yes, nice guys and men's rights activists, it's safe to come out of your abstinence caves now (no innuendo intended), because you were sort-of right all along. But there is some science that goes along with this, so you can feel free to skip the next few paragraphs and continue When Harry Met Sally-ing it all over Reddit, or you can grow a vagina and deal with it.
According to numerous studies, there is a scientific explanation for why men feel "stuck" in the horrible sexless, friendly, caring, respectful relationship hell that is the Friend Zone, while women claim to be totally oblivious. In one study of opposite-sex heterosexual friendships, men and women were interviewed separately about how they felt about the other. In general, women saw their male friends as just that, and said that they thought the guy felt the same. (After all, they had just signed up for a study about FRIENDSHIP and not "People You Secretly Want to Slip It To," so you can see why they would be confused.) Meanwhile, in another room, the men were all telling the researchers about how they totally wanted to bone their female friends and, more importantly, how they were sure those sexified feelings were reciprocated.
BananaStock/BananaStock/Getty Images
"She said, 'Nice pants.' The pants that contain my penis. Clearly there's an implication."
This doesn't mean that every male/female friendship is doomed to failure. It just means that if you find yourself attracted to one of your friends and you want to get a relationship out of it, it might be a good idea to tell that person. Relationships don't just magically happen; they usually involve phrases like "I like you," "We should go out sometime," and "Would you care to sacrifice your hymen at the altar of Rod Thrustshaft?"
Jupiterimages/liquidlibrary/Getty Images
His grandfather changed it from Dickpokski for business reasons.
Look, guys, I really don't want to say you're incapable of just being friends with a girl, because that would be sexist. So help me out here: If you're holding out for your female friend to fall for you because you think it is totally obvious that she has a lady boner for you and doesn't just platonically respect you as a human being, move on. I promise there are plenty of women out there willing to put you in the Relationship Zone and immediately start beating all of your female friends with a morning star in a hate-fueled frenzy.

Congratulations and THANK YOU to our June Advocates of the Month: Jan Sealover, and her caregiver Arthur Poms from Rockville, Maryland and Geri Smith-Benjamin from Arlington, Virginia.
On May 24, 2011 the group joined other non-profit advocates from across the country for this year's One Voice Against Cancer (OVAC) Lobby Day.
They took their passion for the cause and their drive for a cure to the nation's capitol to fight for legislation important to them and the myeloma community. With support from the IMF Advocacy team and OVAC, they met with the staff of their Senators and Representatives to request sustained funding for medical research at the NIH and NCI, funding for the CDC cancer programs, and funding for the FDA.
Jan, a two-year multiple myeloma survivor, and her caregiver Art along with two others from Maryland met with the staff of Senator Barbara Mikulski (D-MD), Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD), Representative Christopher Van Hollen, (D-MD), and Representative John Sarbanes (D-MD). Jan willingly shared the touching story of her mother who passed away from multiple myeloma only after 8 months. She explained in each meeting that because of the research that's been done since her mother's diagnosis and new treatments available, she continues to do well since her own diagnosis.
Geri, a four-year multiple myeloma survivor, along with nine others from Virginia met with the staff of Senator Jim Webb (D-VA), Senator Mark Warner (D-VA), and Representative Gerry Connolly (D-VA). The group was fortunate to meet with Representative James Moran (D-VA) and share their concerns about funding cuts. Rep. Moran assured the group that he is a huge supporter of cancer research and the medical research at the Department of Defense.
One Voice Against Cancer (OVAC) is a collaboration of national non-profit organizations representing millions of Americans with cancer. It is one of the leading cancer coalitions in the nation's capitol and delivers a unified message to Congress on the need for increased cancer-related appropriations. The IMF has been a member since 2001.
We asked both patient advocates to share her thoughts about the day…
Jan – "OVAC Lobby Day was a great experience. After hearing professional lobbying experts speak to us the day before on "how to get your message across," we visited both Senate and House of Representatives' offices on either side of the Capitol. Joined by a dermatologist and an oncology nurse, we strategized on how to blend statistics, personal stories and an "ask" for continued support for funding of cancer research and prevention programs in five key areas including NIH, CDC, FDA, Patient Navigator programs and Pediatric Cancer. The staffers we met with were courteous and knowledgeable, but the pressure of budget cutting was palpable in the air. Although the day was tiring, we all went home feeling we had made a difference by getting them to hear our "One Voice Against Cancer"."
Geri - "OVAC Lobby Day was an energizing experience for me. I got to know a wonderful group of upbeat people who were cancer patients like me, as well as long term survivors, caregivers and even a doctor. I also got to know the health lobbyists who work everyday to make sure Senators and Congressman don't forget the real life impact that cancer research has on the individual lives of ordinary people and our families.
Those who had been to the Hill before, provided me with 'insider tidbits' when it came time to tell legislative aides about my personal experience with multiple myeloma. The best thing about the day for me was the way we easily came together to support one another no matter what specific cancer we were battling in our private lives. A good lesson for politicians to think about."

5 Things You Never Want to See at an Open Mic
I'm going to be co-hosting my own comedy show in Los Angeles, and Dan O'Brien and Michael Swaim are going to perform at the first show, along with a bunch of other great guests, and you can buy tickets right here (buy one get one free if you use promo code CRACKED)!
Digital Vision./Digital Vision/Getty Images
Don't you hate it when people spend 2,500 words being coy about the fact that they're selling you something? Far be it from me to do that. I will tell you right now, that first sentence up there is the entire purpose of this column. That's not to say you should stop reading. I'm a professional -- this is going to feel really good, trust me. But still, I'd love it if you'd check out that show I just mentioned!
To give you some background, I've been doing stand-up comedy, albeit sporadically, for about a year now. After six years of writing jokes on the Internet, it seemed like a reasonable thing to try. Like anyone else hoping to get into stand-up, my first time onstage was at an open mic night. If you've never heard the term, it's exactly what it sounds like. There's a microphone on a stage, and just about anyone is invited to perform. Sometimes it's only comedy, sometimes it's only music, sometimes it's an awkward mix of both, with a few prose-spouting hippies thrown in for bad measure.
No matter the format, it's almost always an awful time, and if you want to be a comic, it's an awful time you have to force yourself to have over and over and over again if you ever hope to spend enough time onstage to not be terrible. Open mics are the AA meetings of comedy, basically. And just like a gathering of "reformed" alcoholics teetering on the brink, if you hang around open mics long enough, you're going to see some truly awful things. For example ...
#5. "Funny" Homeless People
Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images
This isn't even something you have to hang around a long time to spot. If you're at an open mic and didn't pay to get in, someone around you is homeless. The only question is whether they're going to remain a spectator or pay respect to the silly dream that got them living on the beach in the first place by getting onstage and slurring a few jokes. And it's the latter that's actually the best case scenario, because homeless people make fantastic hecklers. In fact, the very first time I ever tried stand-up, I was heckled by a man who I swear to this day had to be a hobo. Granted, he was wearing a North Face jacket or something, but whatever, rich people give clothes to charity, too; this bitch was homeless. And he had the nerve to heckle me. Here's video evidence:
Right, that video is damn near 12 minutes long; I don't blame you for not watching. I promise you the exchange in question is there somewhere, but that's also video of the very first time I tried stand-up and watching it hurts my head, so I can't tell you exactly where. I was supposed to do three minutes, but having no idea what the laser pointer the old man was shooting at my face was all about, I just kind of rambled for as long as they'd have me. I'm better now, I promise. Don't let this video keep you from buying tickets.
As for that heckler, he's in that video. I made a joke about 50 Cent, and he yelled out, "I got 50 cents right here!" or something to that effect. I told him it looked like that was probably half his rent and that he should keep it. It got a good laugh. I felt kind of bad about the joke for approximately as long as it took me to remember that homeless people don't have feelings.
I also think they might be at least partially responsible for the next thing you don't want to see at an open mic.
#4. A Cover Charge
Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images
Don't get me wrong, there is definitely some leeway here, and I've formed my own theory that it is at least in part because of those aforementioned homeless interlopers that some open mics charge a cover. For example, there's an open mic near my apartment that charges a $1 cover. No drink minimums or any of that fun stuff, just $1. Because it's located where homeless people love to be (Santa Monica), I've always assumed that it was meant to keep them at bay. Maybe it's for something else, I don't know, it's a dollar.
Baerbel Schmidt/Digital Vision/Getty Images
Ya heard?
But that's also about as much as I'd be willing to spend for nothing more than the chance to maybe tell a few jokes. Once you get up into the $5 neighborhood, you'd better get a drink with that or something, because there are legitimately great comedy shows that cost way less, and most open mics are absolutely free. If an open mic is generating a ton of cash, it's probably because someone is getting robbed.
On the bright side, that someone is probably just one of your friends. The open mic has an ugly cousin called the "bringer show" where comics are promised stage time provided they bring a certain number of people with them. All of those people, of course, have to pay the ridiculous cover and are subject to the two-drink minimums that you'd get at a regular comedy show.
Jupiterimages/Goodshoot/Getty Images
"They're mostly water!"
The difference here is that most of the "entertainment" is invited because they know a handful of friends who were willing to attend the show, not necessarily because they're funny or talented. That said, if you really want to do stand-up and you live in some tiny town where the one open mic that charges a $15 cover is your only option, then by all means, go tell jokes there and see if you're any good at it. If you are, move.
#3. Washing Machines
Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images
You may recall that, for a few months last year, I lived in San Francisco. It was my intention to start really hitting the open mics regularly once I moved there. I was used to living in places that had one (or sometimes no) comedy club, so my opportunities to do that kind of thing had been limited. I knew it would not be that way in San Francisco, and I fully intended to take advantage of it. But like I told you before, San Francisco is a strange place. So I shouldn't have been surprised when my first attempt at taking in an open mic landed me at a place where people wash their clothes.
Granted, it was a laundromat slash cafe slash bar slash comedy club, but still, it was mostly laundromat. There were kids doing homework while their parents washed clothes and such.
Jupiterimages/Brand X Pictures/Getty Images
Not as much dancing as the stock image sites would have you believe, though.
The place is called BrainWash, if for some reason you think I'm lying, and it's actually kind of popular. There's nothing more popular with me than hating big crowds in small places, though, so I never actually told any jokes at BrainWash, instead choosing to spend most of my time hating that there was nowhere to sit. I regret that now, because who knows when I'll be able to say that I told jokes at a laundromat again unless I just walk into a fucking laundromat and start telling jokes, which I suppose isn't the craziest dream.
But it was too much dream for my comedy "debut" in San Francisco, so after one jokeless visit to BrainWash, I never went back. But I did check out another open mic in San Francisco a few weeks later. The results were ... San Francisco.

Robert Day, 53, of Preston Road, was sentenced last week by Cheektowaga Town Justice Paul Piotrowski. Day had pleaded guilty to charges stemming from the Aug. 12 assault of his 57-year-old companion.
Police said Day slammed the woman against a wall and then choked her from behind with his forearm, obstructing her breathing. He fled on a bicycle, but was located by officers near Roma Road and East Delevan Avenue and arrested after a struggle.
In sentencing Day, the judge said that a physical assault on a woman will never be overlooked or tolerated by the court, police said. The judge also considered Day's criminal record, which includes convictions on charges of harassment and driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, according to public records.

Collection of more than 100 antique tractors up for sale
April 3, 2013
From friends and relatives to Major League Baseball Hall of Famers, those who have visited George Logue Sr....
Is this even news or a shameless way of advertising the sale????

Port, if it goes into their pockets, that is their choice and we should not look askance at it. If we claim to have a right to quarrel about how the proceeds are administered, then they should have the same right to challenge the way your estate is handled. This is a personal decision and should be respected instead of envied.
2 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Justin, these things happen when there is a death in a family where an estate has to be divided. I'm sure this was discussed with George in advance and was part of his will. You also have to remember that maybe his kids have no interest in that collection and the maintenance of it. I was lucky enough to have been given a personal tour of the collection several years ago and to watch his face light up as he told me all about each piece and showed me the equipment he had bought to make parts for them was fascinating. It was a great joy to him, but not to everyone. With luck, museums and other collectors will purchase these treasures and keep them available for others in the future.
2 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Justin1 you got it right. He spent a lifetime collecting these and it took his family a few short months to get them ready to sell. Is the money going to his favorite charity? Would have thought that would be part of the article. Probably just going into family pockets. Way to honor him.
1 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
They should of built a museum or donate the tractors to a museum in his name. I think builting a museum out there would of been the thing to do. GREED has overcome! MONEY, MONEY,MONEY!
0 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
I apologize for the crude nature of myprevious comment. It just seems like a sad way to honor the legacy of Mr. Logue. Wait til he dies and then sell off an incredible lifetime collection- priceless as a whole, simple commodity when separated. I would hope my children would not do the same to me someday.
2 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Like the Logue's need any more money.

It's a shame that Mr. Logue's collection couldn't be kept together. It would make a fine tourist attraction for this area if it were turned into a museum or some sort of display.

The Friday night summer rock concerts in Lockport will move to a different location in 2013.
The nine shows of the Labatt Canal Concert Series will be held in a city-owned parking lot at Chestnut and Elm streets, rather than in the courtyard of Ulrich City Centre two blocks to the south, Mayor Michael W. Tucker said.
The decision makes the management of the Lockport Public Library and the Lockport Family YMCA nervous. That is the main parking lot for their customers.
But steps will be taken to prevent the concerts from hurting those organizations, Tucker said.
The shows have been held at Ulrich City Centre since 2008, but Tucker and promoter Kathy Paradowski, who has a three-year deal to book the acts, said the venue, which is walled in on three sides, had become too small.
"We didn't have room to grow at Ulrich Centre," Paradowski said. "If we want to stay with the big acts, and we do, we've got to have room to grow."
The Chestnut Street site is larger than Ulrich City Centre, Paradowski pointed out.
"It's more open," she added. "The sound will be better, because there won't be as many buildings for the sound to bounce off of."
Tucker said the stage will be erected at the Elm Street end of the parking lot, the farthest point from the library. The city will continue to pay $8,800 per show for stage rental and will pick up police and fire overtime costs.
The city had two years on its contract with landlord David L. Ulrich.
"I let them out of it," Ulrich said. "They can do what they want."
"It got to be a little cumbersome. A couple of businesses over there didn't like it. A lot did," Tucker said.
Elmer A. Granchelli, who owns buildings near Ulrich City Centre, has written to the city complaining about vandalism he blamed on concertgoers. Tucker said that he checked the dates and most of the dates of vandalism weren't concert nights.
Paradowski said Labatt was pleased with the move. She said next year, the price of beer at the shows will be cut, as Labatt will sell draft beer instead of cans.
Tucker said he did not believe parking for the YMCA and the library will be an issue. He said the area in front of the library will be "roped off" and parking will be available in the paved area north of the former Jubilee supermarket, which is to be razed in the next year or so to become the site of Lockport's new ice arena.
Mark W. Albiez, executive director of the YMCA, said his building is open until 8:30 p.m. Fridays. The set-up for the concerts begins in the early afternoon, and music usually starts at about 5:30.
He said parking behind the building is unacceptable. "We wouldn't ask parents with strollers to come through the crowd," Albiez said. "If parking becomes limited after 3 on a Friday, we'll probably just close."
"I was told they want to make sure we can operate, but I don't know what that means," said Beverly Federspiel, public library director. The library is open until 5 p.m. Fridays.
All the parking for both organizations is city-owned. "We own nothing except where the library sits," Federspiel said.

Unfortunately for these wide eyed freshman their high school education fails them so miserably they are not even REMOTELY prepared for a STEM curriculum. The most intelligent students pass and move on while the vast majority drop out (of the program) within a SINGLE semester.

Do your research by checking out the travel agency on BBB.org, pay with a credit card so you can dispute the charges and avoid tickets sold on Craigslist or eBay.

After at least one semester's grades have been posted, a currently enrolled undergraduate student may petition the Registrar in writing for academic renewal. This is a procedure which allows students to request that their academic records be reviewed for the purpose of discounting for grade point average computation all courses bearing grades of D+ or lower and entered on the academic record ten or more calendar years prior to the request. Under this procedure, courses meeting the criteria do not count toward the total hours, upper division hours, or liberal education hours needed for graduation.
The renewal option can be used only once during a student's undergraduate career. This procedure does not apply to graduate students or students pursuing a second undergraduate degree.

DeLand, Fla. - Stetson junior Sam Ryder (Longwood, Fla.) was named to the All-Atlantic Sun Conference Second Team for men's golf, the league office announced Wednesday when voting was released. This is the second consecutive Second Team honor for Ryder, who tied for sixth at the A-Sun Championships last month.
Ryder played to a 72.4 stroke average in 30 rounds for the Hatters in 2010-11, winning the Mission Inn Spring Fling Intercollegiate and leading Stetson to the team title in the process. The Longwood native also recorded four total top five and six total top 10 finishes in 10 events and shot even par or better 18 times in 30 rounds. In the second round of the Barefoot at the Beach Intercollegiate in Myrtle Beach, S.C. on March 7, Ryder set a Stetson men's golf program record by shooting a seven under par 65.
Ryder recorded three top three finishes in the fall portion of the season and concluded the spring by shooting 71-70-71 (-1) to tie for sixth at the Atlantic Sun Conference Championships in Braselton, Ga. April 18-20. He is one of six lettermen slated to return in 2011-12 for the Hatters.

LOCKPORT – Antoine M. Bradberry died because he was overweight and had a weak heart, not because he was beaten in a robbery attempt, a defense attorney told a Niagara County Court jury Thursday.
Michael S. Deal said in his opening statement that no injury suffered by Bradberry, 41, in a fight with the robber was enough to kill him. He said the jury will hear evidence that Bradberry was moving around his apartment after the assailant left.
Matthew A. Davis, 37, of Pierce Avenue, Niagara Falls, is on trial on murder charges stemming from Bradberry's Aug. 22, 2011, death in the Jefferson Apartments on Rainbow Boulevard in Niagara Falls.
The indictment does not accuse Davis of intentional killing, but rather of "felony murder": causing a death in the process of committing another felony, in this case first-degree robbery and first-degree burglary.
Deal, who is representing Davis along with Phillip Dabney Jr., said the autopsy found that the cause of Bradberry's death was "hypertensive cardiovascular disease, caused by obesity."
"You will hear a medical opinion that the manner of his death is best characterized as undetermined," Deal assured the jurors. "Maybe it was just his time to go."
He also denied that Davis was the robber, but Deputy District Attorney Doreen M. Hoffmann told the jury in her opening statement that surveillance video from the front of the building and the hallway outside Bradberry's apartment show Davis and two women coming and going.
"There was a violent struggle between these two men, leaving blood all over the apartment," Hoffmann said. "You'll learn that Antoine Bradberry was overweight and had a heart condition, but he also suffered some violent injuries, and the combination of those two things caused his death."
"Maybe both stories make sense," Deal told the jury. "It's all right. It's reasonable doubt."
Officer Matthew Szczpaniec, the second policeman on the scene when Bradberry's body was found Aug. 23, said the victim "fell through a coffee table. … There were massive amounts of blood."
Davis' mistress, Teara D. Fatico, 22, testified Thursday that Davis cooked up a scheme to rob Bradberry after the latter sent Fatico a private message via Facebook, asking to meet her. Fatico said she persuaded her friend Chastity L. Wilson, 21, to help them. Both women pleaded guilty to attempted first-degree burglary and were sentenced in February to 13 years in prison.
Fatico said Bradberry befriended her on Facebook by leaving comments on her photos. She said Davis "looked kind of shocked" when he saw Bradberry's message on her smartphone.
Davis' plan was for the women to visit Bradberry and determine whether he had any cash or drugs worth stealing, Fatico said. Neither she nor Wilson stuck around when Davis entered the apartment.
Hoffmann said the video shows that Davis was in the apartment for 13 minutes and left wearing a coat and carrying a plastic garbage bag he didn't have when he entered. Fatico said the bag contained marijuana in two jars and some plastic bags, which she had seen earlier in the apartment.

Stetson will face Mercer for the 2014 Atlantic Sun Conference Championship at 1 p.m. ET Saturday at Draper Diamond in Nashville, Tenn.
Carrying a 3-0 tournament record into the final, the third-seeded Hatters (37-12) will only need to win once to claim their first title since 2007. If the Bears (37-18), who defeated FGCU 2-1 in 11 innings Friday night, win the first game, the two teams would play a winner-take-all contest immediately following game one.
The A-Sun champion will receive the league's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.
The championship will be carried live on ESPN3.com and the WatchESPN app for mobile devices. It is available to fans who receive their video subscription from an affiliated provider. Paul Crane and Scott Whitlock will call the action.
Stetson is 2-1 against Mercer this season, including Friday's 4-1 victory in the A-Sun semifinals. The Hatters opened the tournament with a 4-1 win over FGCU and went on to defeat Lipscomb 2-0 on Thursday.
Meredith Owen is 3-0 with a 0.67 ERA for the Hatters in the postseason. She has pitched all 21 innings and opponents are batting .158 against her.
Jessie TenBroeck and Chrissy Morello lead the offense with five hits and four hits, respectively.
As the higher seed, Stetson will be the home team in each game that is played Saturday.
In addition to the ESPN3 broadcast, live stats, the Stetson Softball twitter feed, and the Hat-Alerts text messaging service will provide in-game updates as well.
Launched in April 2011, WatchESPN delivers live access to ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPN3 and ESPN Buzzer Beater/Goal Line on computers, smartphones, tablets, Xbox and Apple TV. It is currently accessible in 55 million households nationwide to fans who receive ESPN's linear networks as part of their video subscription from Time Warner Cable, Bright House Networks, Verizon FiOS TV, Comcast Xfinity TV, Midcontinent Communications, Cablevision, Cox, Charter or AT&T U-verse.

Barbara Pierce Bush
Special Achievement in Community Service
Inducted 1989
Barbara Bush often jokes that her successful life is a result of marrying well. Her husband's service as Vice President and President of the United States offered her a unique opportunity to make a difference in the public eye, but since leaving the White House in 1993, this former First Lady continues to serve others with the same tireless energy, goodwill and good humor that has endeared her to millions around the world.
Throughout her years in public life, Mrs. Bush volunteered in and supported hundreds of charity and humanitarian causes. Today, she continues her service as AmeriCares ambassador-at-large; and supporter of various organizations, including the Leukemia Society of America, Ronald McDonald Houses, the Mayo Clinic Foundation and the Boys & Girls Club of America.
Her number one cause, however, is family literacy. In 1990, she helped develop the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy whose mission is to support the development of family literacy programs; break the intergenerational cycle of illiteracy; and establish literacy as a value in every American family. She currently serves as honorary chair of the Foundation and hosts its annual fundraiser, "A Celebration of Reading."
Her involvement in the literacy cause does not end with the foundation. She regularly undertakes a myriad of projects and a rigorous appearance schedule designed to emphasize reading as a part of daily family life. By visiting literacy programs across the countryin schools, housing projects, organizations and businessesshe witnesses, first hand, the powerful impact reading has on self-esteem and family dynamics.

The man whose Céline Dion lip-synch went viral in June is no longer all by himself – in fact, he met his idol.
Richard Dunn filmed himself rocking out to Dion's 1996 cover of "All by Myself" while stranded overnight at the McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas. On Friday night, he returned to Sin City to see the diva perform live at Caesars Place, even scoring a meet-and-greet backstage, the Las Vegas Sun reports.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime memory I never thought would happen but will last forever," Dunn told the paper.
Touched by his "hilarious" tribute, Dion reached out to her dedicated fan with a YouTube video of her own after Dunn's made headlines.
"Next time, you know, you're stuck all by yourself at Las Vegas airport for hours and hours, please be my guest at my show," she said in the June 12 clip. "By the way, Richard, you're more than welcome to use my bathroom. So I hope to see you soon!"
It looks like Dunn took her up on that offer. As Dion herself sings, "love comes to those who believe it, and that's the way it is."
Watch Dunn's original video (and Dion's response) below.

SL TV: Beaming On Bars - Angie Hosbach
For Ball State senior, Angie Hosbach, gymnastics was more than something to do growing up -- it was her passion. She was just three years old when she took her first gymnastics class.
"While my older sister was in gymnastics classes, I would kind of escape the waiting room," Hosbach said. "My mom would have to chase after me. Just by watching it, I just wanted to be out there as a little kid."
Growing up gymnastics helped give Hosbach confidence and discipline. The traits reflected outside of the gym into activities other than gymnastics.
"I was a little shy as a kid, "Hosbach said. "But when it came to performing, I just snapped on and that carried over into just growing up and meeting new people. Gymnastics isn't easy, so the hard work I apply in the gym, I apply to my schoolwork and anything I do. I strive for perfection."
Hosbach's roommate and teammate Leah Wilson said their first meeting as freshmen at Ball State was unique at first.
"My first impression was she was pretty intimidating," Wilson said. "She is one of those people who is out there to go get what she wants, then once you get to know her she is one of those really sweet people who will do anything for anyone.
As a senior leader on the team, Ball State head coach Joanna Saleem looks to Hosbach to guide the younger gymnasts as well as help Saleem with her own transition as the Cardinals' first-year head coach.
"Angie is an athlete that I feel like I can go to and get and honest answer from, " Saleem said. "If I need to get a feel for how the team is responding or feeling about certain things, I can trust Angie."
In her first three seasons as a Cardinal, Hosbach competed in three events, but that all changed during a meet at Kent State her junior year when she ruptured her Achilles.
"Angie was having an amazing year and when she took off for her double pike and landed in a pile you kind of knew at that point," Saleem said. "I was like 'oh no not Angie.'"
"Her Injury affected me probably more than it should have, Wilson said. "After she fell on floor, I felt like I got hurt with her. I started kind of tearing up.
"You never want to see your best friend and roommate get hurt like that, but Angie is such a trooper. After it happened she tried to dance around on one leg."
Hosbach never let her injury bring her down. She was determined to come back for her senior season in 2013.
"The first night I didn't accept it really," Hosbach said. "It took me a little bit, but when I did realize what happened I wasn't scared. I just knew it was going to be a rough road. I mentally prepared for that and I wasn't going to let it stop me from coming back for my senior year."
After months of grueling rehabilitation, Hosbach is competing her senior season on two events -- bars and beam. She has returned to action with season highs of 9.750 on bars and 9.675 on beam.
"I look at this season as such a big opportunity," Hosbach said. "I just want to be proud of what I have done. I want to be able to leave a legacy with the younger girls and follow the team next year to see that they are still working hard. I just want to leave with a positive impression on everyone else."
An impression she made even at age three.

A whistle that is made of meat, generally penile meat that has a musical tune played on it such as "Nic Nac Patty Whack" typically by a woman. Although the "Meat Whistle" usually belongs to the male, it sometmes belongs to the transgender female. The tune can still be played on the transgender, however, that would in most circumstances mean that the "tune player" would be gay or really butch although still in female form.

There is just enough fabric to pad the shoulder area without being overwhelming which also allows for a tighter, trimmer fit for smaller or petite wearers.

Babies that are carried in a Baby Sling...
Of course, there are also many benefits to a mother that carries their baby in a baby sling. Hands suddenly become free to attend to basic tasks throughout the day or an older child is easily assisted when their younger sibling is content or sleeping away in a sling. Mothers that are at risk for postpartum depression report having an easier time when baby is in a sling and they are able to care for themselves AND baby, both simultaneously.
Look who's wearing (and loving!) their Maya Wraps...

A Customer Reviews the Maya Wrap Baby Sling
Wow! When I was first asked to review the Maya Wrap baby sling I realized I was a walking testomonial to it's incredibly versatile and useful nature every single day. My son is now 2.5 years old and we still use our Maya Wrap almost every day. I honestly don't know what we ever did before I discovered this baby sling. Oh - wait a minute! I DO remember! I didn't learn about baby slings until my son was almost 3 months old and that first 3 months was just a blur. Dylan was my first child, and let's just say the transition from "all about me" to "all about him" wasn't exactly easy. It was tough feeling as though my entire life and identity had disappeared after one long (looooong) night of labor. Then I discovered my Maya Wrap. Boy did life change!
With my son curled up in his Maya Wrap, sleeping away safe and sound, I finally had my hands free for ME. If I wanted to houseclean, read, surf the net or even just make myself a sandwich, I could. Before my baby sling, any time I tired to lay Dylan down for a few moments to myself, he would wail and cry. My baby sling really saved my sanity. Even my husband loves our Maya Wrap! He will carry Dylan around the mall when we're out shopping, and when Dylan is ready to nurse, it's easy to switch from daddy to mommy so that he can get his fill of yummy mommy's milk. And one of the BEST things about baby slings is the fact that I could nurse hands-free. Gently draping the tail of the Maya Wrap over my son (and me!) I have nursed in the grocery store, the library, walking around the mall and even in Walmart. No one ever knew what was going on when my son was nursing in his baby sling. In fact, most people thought he was sleeping, and I actually found people would respect his and my privacy better when my son was covered in the sling.
My husband and I are now expecting baby #2 and I know once this new baby comes along I will have an all-new appreciation for the Maya Wrap. I don't know if I can love this baby sling much more than I do already, but when my infant is sleeping in the sling and I have my hands free to attend to my toddler, I just know I'll be declaring how fabulous the Maya Wrap is all over again. No parent should be without a baby sling!
This testimonial was submitted by Carolyn Summer who discovered her Maya Wrap baby sling when her son, Dylan, was 3 months old. She and her son are happy slinging in Toronto, Ontario (Canada).

Did not work well for us Review by Fatima
Price Value Quality
I bought this sling when my daughter was 1 month old hoping that it would help me to accomplish more around the house since I could carry my daughter in it while she is sleeping or nursing.
First, I have discovered that it's practically impossible to nurse the baby in a sling. Breastfeeding of a baby of this age typically requires two hands - you hold the breast with one hand and baby's head with another hand. The sling does not provide firm and steady support that is required for baby's head during breastfeeding. Even if I managed to latch my daughter on properly she would come off the breast almost immediately (or would pull on the breast) if I let her head go and the head would be supported only by the sling.
Second, my daughter always seemed to be very squished and would cry when I put her into the sling. I have tried a few times with help of my mom following the instructions on a DVD but my daughter did not like it.
When my daughter turned 3 months we tried the next position - sitting in a sling with legs curled up inside. She liked it, and after a couple of tries it was fairly easy to put her in. She could spend up to a half an hour in it watching everything I was doing which was probably something interesting and new for her, and on the other hand would allow me to get some things done. The drawback I discovered is that my back and my shoulder joint started to hurt. I have never had back pains in my life, even during pregnancy, so it was very disappointing to feel the pain over use of this sling. Another problem is that it's very hard to do anything that requires bending or picking things up from the floor, so the range of things that you can do with your baby in a sling is fairly limited. My daughter looked very cute in a sling, and we have made several nice photographs while she was in a sling in this position. Other than that, and occasional use around the house when I desperately need to get something done, and do not want to leave her crying, we did not use this sling much.
Now my baby is 6 months old, and it's time to move on to the next carrying position but because she is getting heavier, and the sling puts pressure on my back and shoulders, I do not think I will be using it much.
Overall, definitely does not worth what I paid for it - I would not buy it if I had to do it again.
A note from the bynature.ca family: Thank you for your review! We're sorry to hear you had trouble with hands-free nursing and positioning with your sling. A ring sling provides one of the best opportunities for hands-free nursing of a newborn, but there is a learning curve. You might try to contact a local babywearing group and/or midwife or doula that would have experience with using a ring sling. Of course if you are able to come into our store in Orillia, we'd love to help you through these challenges. Also, the forums at thebabywearer.com offer a fantastic resource if you have had trouble finding local support. I hope this helps! (Posted on 3/28/12)
the best piece of baby gear we own Review by rlm
Price Value Quality
We've been using our sling for about 3 months. Our son liked to be held almost 24 hours a day, and this sling literally gave me my life back. With it, I can travel easily, wear him around the house, and help him nap while we are out doing errands.
I will say that it took us both time to get used to it. If you don't feel like your baby is responding well right away, try for a short period every day and help them 'warm up to it.'
This would also make a fabulous gift! (Posted on 1/13/14)
Comfy for mom and baby Review by Mariko
Price Value Quality
This sling comes with a booklet and a dvd to explain how to use it. At first it is kind of awkward but after reading the book, watching the video and trying it out a couple times it is super easy to use. My daughter used to need to be walked around a lot when she was just a month old. This sling made it seem not so bad and saved my arms from holding her for the laps around the house. She now still loves it at 3.5 months old but will only use it facing out so she can get good look at what is going on around her. She almost always falls asleep in it: :) (Posted on 7/3/10)Would you recommend this product to a friend? Without hesitation!
Really great sling Review by Julie
Value Quality Price
I have been using this sling with my son for a month now. He was 12 hours old when I put him in it for the first time. He has loved being worn in this sling. It's soft, breathable and easy to adjust. He falls asleep in it every time I wear him and I get lots of comments on the beautiful colour. The only thing I was slightly disappointed in was the brightness of the colour. It looks way brighter on the website (I have the burnt orange). Overall I would buy this again and recommend this sling to friends. (Posted on 7/15/10)Would you recommend this product to a friend?

By far my favourite sling Review by CINDY
Price Value Quality
My Maya Wrap baby ring slings have been my favourite through all 5 of my babies. I have purchased more than one so have the most recent model in use, but my original sling is still used daily with my youngest, 12 years after the fact! It is buttery soft from love and use. Where can you find that kind of durability and value these days???Would you recommend this product to a friend? Without hesitation!
I love the colours and it is easily adjustable within the rings. I have found it to be one of the most adjustable slings because it is simple to adjust the top and bottom rails separately. I can nurse in it anywhere, including the grocery store, and with the tail cover up, no one knows the better.
If I had to recommend one babywearing tool for a newborn to toddler, this would be it, hands down!!! (Posted on 1/3/11)
Great price for a supportive carrier Review by psalms673
Value Quality Price
I highly recommend this ring sling as a cost effective, comfortable, and stylish carrier.
The shoulder has light padding which makes it nice, but isn't too bulky either. I love the support of the woven material. The colours are stunning as well - I had the blue colourway and received many compliments on it.
There is a small learning curve to proper use, but doesn't take long to master.
I highly recommend the Maya Wrap Ring Sling! (Posted on 11/7/13)
Great for quick trips! Review by Angela
Value Quality Price
I love my ring sling. It's very easy to use and my baby is comfy. I like feeling that he is snug and safe, and he likes being close and being able to look at what's going on around us. I wish I had bought it earlier as I started using it when he was about 15 pounds. He is still comfortable to carry for short trips at 23 pounds. While I don't find it to be good for longer than a half hour or so, I always bring it along with us on outings. (Posted on 11/7/13)Would you recommend this product to a friend? Yes

I love living on an island. Key West has such an incredibly rich island culture, and one of the very cool things you can do is visit the Lighthouse and Keepers Quarters Museum.
Located on Whitehead Street, just steps from the Hemingway Home & Museum, it's easy to spot. You can't miss the towering white structure that was once a fully functioning lighthouse.
It's no longer used to help ships navigate the reefs in the Lower Keys, and it has been placed on the National Register for Historic Places. Like the rest of Key West, it too has a colorful cast of characters associated with it.
If you have the wherewithal to climb the 88 steps in the spiral staircase to get to the top you'll be rewarded with a gorgeous treetop view Key West's Old Town Historic District. Looking down you see the grounds and can imagine how wonderfully unique they are for a wedding.
Reciting your vows beneath the comforting shade of the old Banyan tree, or being daring enough to say "I Do" atop the 90 foot light house will be memorable for everyone who attends.
They have a wonderful little gift shop with items which are perfect for bridal parties, mother of the bride, etc. The Key West Lighthouse and Keepers Quarters Museum is just one of so many things Key West has to offer visitors. We are a tropical island paradise, no passport required! Stop by and say hello, we're waiting for you.
Sun, sand and love from the Florida Keys!

COLUMBIA — The capital city will be the center of the 2016 presidential universe on May 3. With South Carolina Democrats already landing possible presidential contender Vice President Joe Biden for the party's May 3 fundraising dinner, a source close to the state GOP confirmed this morning that new U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, will headline the Republicans' Silver Elephant dinner on the same night.
Both events start at 7 p.m.
Elected in November, Cruz already is being mentioned as a possible presidential candidate.
Cruz's visit will mark his first visit to an early presidential primary or caucus state.
The Republican banquet, the party's main annual fundraiser, will also feature a tribute to former U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint, a Cruz endorser who resigned in December to head up the conservative Heritage Foundation.

The beautiful residue left in a womans panty crotch after long wear and/or arousal. Usually drying to a powdery whitish/yellow color, holding in the scent of her sex as well as making for a great sniffing and licking prospect later while jerking off.
Hey, she was so hot before we banged, I slipped her pantys off and realized it had panty soup. I carefully rolled them up, crotch on the inside and pocketted them. Later they gave me a lot of pleasure, sniffing and licking the crotch while I jerked off on my towel.
