HARTFORD, Conn. – Assistant coach George Blaney is a regular at postgame press conferences involving the Connecticut basketball program. On the way to the interview room Saturday night at the XL Center, Blaney couldn't resist making an observation to coach Kevin Ollie.
"Like Coach Blaney said, this was a good day in my life," Ollie told the assembled media.
No one could argue with Blaney or Ollie. On Saturday morning, Ollie agreed to a new contract that would keep him in the head coach's seat at UConn through 2018. Before the Huskies tipped off against Washington, Ollie and athletic director Warde Manuel shared the details of the new deal at a press conference. And then UConn (10-2) completed its non-conference work with an impressive 61-53 victory over the Huskies from the West Coast.
UConn even outrebounded an opponent (40-36) for just the second time this season.
The five-year extension is worth just under $7 million. News of the new contract spread through the state faster than Saturday's blizzard-like snowstorm and the 6,600 or so who braved the conditions to attend the game gave Ollie quite the ovation as he led his staff onto the floor before the game.
"Of course," Ollie said when asked if he heard the crowd. "My legs were shaking and everything. It was like the first game I ever stepped into the XL Center. My legs were shaking because I was excited for the moment. I never thought it could happen to a guy out of South Central Los Angeles."
The UConn players, many of whom said in October that their goal was to have enough success to prove Ollie deserved an extension, played an inspired game against their Pac-12 opponent. Washington (8-5) scored a season low point total and was held to a season-low 29.7 percent from the field.
And despite 17 turnovers – 11 of them in the second half – UConn held off Washington with good defense and rebounding.
"Give a lot of credit to UConn tonight," Washington coach Lorenzo Romar said. "They did a nice job. Down the stretch, they probably turned the ball over more than they would have liked. But they did a good job of sticking with what they were trying to do."
Omar Calhoun (14 points), Shabazz Napier (13 points) and Ryan Boatright (12 points) led the scoring attack. But the frontcourt contributions of Tyler Olander (four points, two rebounds, one block), Enosch Wolf (two points, nine rebounds, two blocks) and Phillip Nolan (three points) gave UConn its energy.
"Our big men were terrific tonight," Ollie said. "I was taking them in and out, subbing them. They did it by committee. Enosch got on the floor about five or six times that vividly stick in my mind. He played an outstanding game."
Olander was back in the starting lineup for UConn after a three-game absence. But Wolf got the crowd pumped by diving on the floor, deflecting passes and, with the game on the line, he stepped in took a charge in the final three minutes. It was a huge play.
"I was trying to get every [loose] ball that I could," Wolf said. "I knew I wasn't going to score a lot today so I was just trying to get every possible ball. . . . I needed a [physical] game like this. I feel like I didn't respond to the physicality in the last game. I took it real personal and went out there to show I can respond."
There were some rough and tough moments in the lane. One of those came with 1:22 to play when DeAndre Daniels got spun around and hit the floor face down. He came up groggy and bleeding. Ollie said Daniels (nine points, five rebounds) needed stitches in his chin.
"He's going to have a battle wound," Ollie said. "It will make him look a little tougher when we go to Marquette. But I think he'll be ready to play."
Seven Huskies scored in the first half as UConn built a 31-26 lead at halftime. Napier led the Huskies with eight points despite 1-for-5 shooting from the field. He made up for that by going 6-for-8 from the free throw line.
Reserve guard R.J. Evans provided a spark off the bench again, scoring back-to-back baskets that gave UConn a 17-16 lead after the Huskies had fallen behind 16-10. Those baskets were part of an 11-0 run that put UConn ahead 21-16 after a Calhoun basket with 9:58 left in the half.
Scott Suggs (15 points) led Washington but Ollie complimented Napier for the defensive job he did on future NBA guard C.J. Wilcox, who was held to five points on 2-foor-12 shooting.
"Wilcox is a great scorer," Napier said. "We tried many strategies to get him off his rhythm, whether it was denying him the ball, whether it was hitting him with some screens, getting him tired."
Said Romar: "C.J. had some looks that he doesn't normally miss. He's such a good shooter. Early the shots were contested. Then he had some wide open looks that he couldn't get to go down."
UConn opens Big East Conference play at Marquette Tuesday night. The emotion over the news of Ollie's new contract will be worn off by then. But the Huskies closed out the non-conference portion with 10 wins. There ere lose losses to New Mexico and North Carolina State, two teams that have been ranked this season, but no one could have imagined this type of start for a team that lost so many players and isn't eligible for the postseason.
"We were just happy," Calhoun said, regarding Ollie's extension. "We clapped it up for him."
There were multiple tests that Ollie passed on the way to a contract extension, but he has cleared demonstrated the ability to lead and get his players to follow. Don't expect Ollie to stop now. The new deal is just a beginning for him and his players.
"I'm happy with 10-2, but I'm not satisfied," Ollie said. "I think we can give a lot more and I'm going to push the guys and will them to give a lot more. I want them to have the best attitude in American. And that's what we're going to strive for."

Many high school football games in the Kansas City metro will start later than usual on Friday night due to the heat.
With a high temperature of 99 degrees expected and heat indices into the 100s, area athletic directors and other school officials made the call to delay the start of most football games tonight.
Games starting at 8 p.m. include Lee's Summit at Raytown, Liberty at Winnetonka and Blue Springs South at Truman. There are several others that are starting at 8 p.m., you're advised to call your school to check the time.
Some of Saturday's games have also been moved up to a 10 a.m. start to avoid Saturday's scorching weather as well.

MARTINSBURG - At 1 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 19, schools across the state celebrated Physical Activity Day and the launch of the West Virginia Physical Activity Plan by simultaneously performing the Cupid Shuffle dance.
Schools in Berkeley, Jefferson and Morgan counties participated in the Cupid Shuffle event, which is part of the West Virginia Department of Education's Let's Move! West Virginia Active Schools project.
"I think it helped (the students) to get more active. I think they want to be more active but being in school you can't always be as active as you like, but these kids did a really good job coming in and putting their efforts into it. The teachers did a great job about getting the kids enthused about it," said Shelly Ostrowski, a physical education teacher at Martinsburg North Middle School.

Students at , join students from around the state participating in the Cupid Shuffle dance.
Around 580 students and teachers at North Middle School danced together in the gymnasium, led by Miss West Virginia USA Andrea Rogers, a teacher at the middle school. North Middle and other participating schools in Berkeley, Jefferson and Morgan counties were part of 70,000 students and 200 schools in the state participating in the event.
"It was fun that everyone was together and usually we're not together with all the grades, so it was fun watching everyone do it," said Jamara Washington, a seventh-grade student at North Middle School.
Rogers said that students were both excited and anxious to participate in the group dance. She also said that the Cupid Shuffle event was a great inclusion to North Middle School's overall focus of encouraging physical activity so students can be physically and mentally fit.

"Our new state superintendent (Jorea Marple) has put a big push on 15 extra minutes a day of movement, so we've made it a goal here at North Middle to incorporate that into our classrooms to get them up and doing nonlinguistic type activities," said Principal Rebekah Eyler.
The organized Cupid Shuffle event is part of Let's Move! WV and the state Board of Education's effort to make physical wellness a priority. According to a news release, Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin and Marple participated in the event.
Additional schools that participated in the Cupid Shuffle include Berkeley Heights Elementary School, Marlowe Elementary School, Paw Paw High School, Berkeley Springs High School, Widmyer Elementary School, Harpers Ferry Middle School and Shepherdstown Elementary School.

I don't really know why that fight didn't happen but I suspect that Mitchells handlers knew what the rest of the world knew, that the gap in talent between the two is immense. Nelson has all the advantages- hand speed, defense, coordination, resume, power, etc. I saw Mitchell fight several times and he was a good fighter, however I saw nothing to make me think he could ever have beaten the professor

Geirionydd & Crafnant Lakes
Circular Walk, steep in places. Total ascent: 1,185 feet
5 miles / 3 hours
The twin lakes of Llyn Geirionydd and Llyn Crafnant are easily accessible to walkers from Trefriw following this trail, which branches off Trail 4 at the bridge above the Fairy Falls. The trail takes you through woodlands with fine views of the beautiful Crafnant valley before arriving at the northern end of Llyn Geirionydd and circling around to Llyn Crafnant.
From the car park in the centre of the village, cross the main road in front of the Woollen Mill and turn right. At the end of the row of shops, opposite the Fairy Falls Hotel, turn left and walk up the hill. After a few yards, turn left onto Trail 4 that will take you to the Fairy Falls. From the Falls, climb up to the footbridge and follow the Trail 5 waymark signs.
The Trail takes you up into woods above the village and climbs steadily up 680 feet from Trefriw before levelling off along an old mining track that eventually brings you to the first lake - Llyn Geirionydd.
A single-track road follows alongside the lake on one side and a rough path on the other, allowing a circuit to be made on foot. There are also a number of other footpaths that lead into the network of paths and tracks in Gwydyr Forest.
Trail 5, skirts the northern edge of the lake and circles a hillside around old mine workings to bring you out by the Forest Enterprises car park below Llyn Crafnant.
The lake itself is a few hundred yards up a narrow road from where there are Forest Enterprise trails that circuit both Llyn Crafnant and link to Llyn Geirionydd.
To return to Trefriw, descend along the road that leads down from the car park before joining Trail 7 which will take you back to Trefriw avoiding a narrow section of road.

[QUOTE=qqemokitty;1096859]I enjoy dining out, but it is has become an almost constant disappointment for both my boyfriend and myself.
I need to get better at researching high quality eateries rather than going to the same habitual ones I know of from my CW days.
Any recommendations in the Long Beach area? :P[/QUOTE]
qqemokitty, I would start yelp.com for your area and search for the kinds of restaurants you like (steak, fish, ethnicity, etc.). Once you have an idea of how people in your area rate given restaurants, you can go to the restaurant's website and look at their menu.

Indonesia Holds CC:Learn Workshop on National Climate Change Strategy
14 February 2013: The Indonesian National Council on Climate Change (DNPI) hosted a workshop on 14 February 2013, in Jakarta, to review progress on the development of a National Learning Strategy to address climate change.
The workshop brought together over 62 participants, including representatives from the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO), the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), the World Health Organization (WHO) and the UN Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR).
Workshop participants agreed on a common understanding of the objectives of the Strategy and its priorities, including a list of follow up actions for immediate implementation, such as: basic training for community leaders on REDD+; capacity building for managers within the energy industry; and public awareness campaigns on climate change mitigation and adaptation.
The Strategy development process is supported by UN CC:Learn, a One UN initiative that brings together 33 multilateral organizations that supports member States in designing and implementing results-oriented and sustainable learning to address climate change. The Secretariat for UN CC:Learn is hosted by UNITAR. The Strategy is expected to be finalized in April 2013, and launched in May 2013, together with three immediate learning projects to be funded under the UN CC:Learn Initiative.

April 13
I had a free ticket on NW, so I decided to use it to fly back home to BHM for Easter. I usually prefer to fly DL to BHM b/c there's usually more flights and a better selection of planes (i.e. planes I prefer to fly). Anyway, I got to the NW counter a little early to increase my chances of getting an emergency exit seat. Luckily no one else seemed to have this idea, so I ended up with an emergency exit aisle (15C I believe). When I got to the gate, I noticed that the NW 727 was much shinier than the other one going to MSP (I think). It almost looked new. Unfortunately, the interior was not in such good condition. Some of the seats actually had holes in them. A NW pilot was seated in 15C, and thank goodness, no one was in 15B. Service during the flight included a can of Diet Pepsi but no snack. There was almost no turbulence.
This connecting flight was running a little late, so I had a little time to roam around the Memphis airport. I don't know if any of you have been there, but it leaves much to be desired. Most of the concourses are really dark with low ceilings. The architecture is definitely not modern. And to make things worse, the dining selections are extremely limited for an airport of its size. Charlotte and Cincinnati are much better.
I was excited to be flying the Mesaba ARJ (aka Avro85). The good thing about them is that they are meant to hold 85 passengers, but NW's only seat 69. That means every seat has at least 33 inches of legroom. Service during this flight included a can of Diet Pepsi and a small package of pretzels. I thought that it was a little strange to get pretzels on this flight that lasted 50 minutes and to get nothing (as far as food was concerned) on the hour-forty-five-minute flight from ORD to MEM. Whatever. For those of you who have never been on an ARJ, it makes some strange noises during take-off and the initial decent. I suppose the loudest were the wheels retracting and descending.
April 15th
DL 757 new new color scheme
I was originally booked on NW making a stop in MEM before continuing on to ORD. However, the flight to MEM was delayed so much that it would have caused me to miss my connection. The NW agent rebooked me on a DL flight leaving at 6:50. Since it was already 6:00 pm, I figured it was leaving in 50 minutes. But when I got to the DL counter and saw the departures monitor, I realized that 6:50 flight was at 6:50 am the next morning. I asked the DL agent if there were any more seats to on the flight leaving for ATL at 6:25pm and the connecting flight to Chicago. There were plenty to ATL but only one first class to Chicago. I ran back to the NW counter and had the agent print me a FIM in order for DL to upgrade me. Thankfully he did it, and I sprinted back to DL with the documentation.
The short flight to ATL was on a 757 in the new new livey. This time the interior looked just as new as the exterior. All the seats had gray leather headrests. For some reason, DL decided that it is no longer possible to serve drinks from BHM to ATL. Granted, it's a short flight, but I used to always get something on Eastern and even Delta a few years ago. I'm surprised they didn't even offer Fastbreak service (a choice of water, lemonade, or cranberry juice). Oh well.
DL 767-200 old old colors
I was disappointed there was no meal on this flight, but I understood since it was pretty late in the evening. I was in seated in 1D about 2 feet from the video screen. There was a bottle of water at my seat when I got on, and the flight attendant took my drink order just after I sat down. I'm always glad when a video is shown, and this time it was a CNN program, a short golf documentary (yawn), and an episode of Friends. Other than a few minutes right before landing, the flight was turbulence free. Despite the fact that there was no meal, flight attendants came around and asked me three times if I wanted a snack and 4 times if I wanted something to drink. I was so spoiled. This never happens in coach. I almost forgot- this aircraft did not have a Business Elite section. I'm pretty sure the 762 is not used for any trans-Atlantice flights, so it only had a regular first class with pretty regular seats which were outlined in leather and were only slightly wider than coach seats.

i did play a really shit lv 40 yesterday come to think of it.
Seems lately there has been a huge number of very obvious cheaters. Trends Ive noticed are players with seemingly unlimited proxy and grenades and weapons that shouldnt be in the hands of a lev. 30 or less. When Im playing against all lower rank and start seeing rare higher level weapons. Also really high level (50's )players with zero skill. Even teams of cheaters... A few days ago I even saw a level 60!!!
If I see any of this I quit immediately even if I'm doing well. I just wish everyone knew how to spot the cheaters. If we all quit the game the cheaters might go away.

Goldeneye 007 FC: 2086 9368 2239

If you check the leader board you can spot the cheats easily. I try to keep them in mind for when I do end up playing against them.
GoldenEye FC: 4918 7561 4937
To answer your question though, no I haven't noticed a lot of cheaters. Must be just luck of the draw. In fact, I've been playing since November and I've never stumbled upon an infinite ammo game. I've run into a few weapon hackers, but idc cause I just picked up their weapon and destroy them with it.
Goldeneye Name: Jedi [SD]
Level 48
The last couple days I haven't noticed too much, not nearly as much as the other night when I ran into a team of cheaters and the freaking level 60. So you may be right and I might have just been having bad luck.
read my thread about instant melee. I can deal with noobers and cheaters most of the time. But this sucks.

Medical marijuana used for child's epilepsy
September 8, 2013
MARTINSBURG — Even though she's far from home, there's no mistaking the determination in Tara White's voice....
This is my story and it's amazing how unintelligent people really are about cannabis. It is proven to be a miracle drug with so many positive aspects. Soon it will not be a crime and you will be coming to my dispensary to get yours...Thank you. Anyway my child has a severe seizure disorder and I watch him almost die in my arms. Do you think a liquid CBD that takes away seizures for $30 a month isn't better? It's non toxic and WORKS. Maybe one day you will need it. It's called research...try it sometime.

Marijuana Smoking Doesn't Kill Share AA WebMD Health News by Daniel J. DeNoon Sept. 18, 2003 -- Marijuana smoking isn't harmless, but at least it won't kill you.
It's been feared that marijuana smoke, like tobacco smoke, causes cancer and heart disease. The evidence argues otherwise, writes Stephen Sidney, MD, associate director for research for Kaiser Permanente, Oakland, Calif., in the Sept 20 issue of The British Medical Journal.
"Although the use of [marijuana] is not harmless, the current knowledge base does not support the assertion that it has any notable adverse public health impact in relation to mortality," Sidney concludes.
No Marijuana Deaths in 2 Large Studies
Sidney points to two large studies. The first is from (where else?) California. A large HMO looked at 65,177 men and women age 15-49. Over 10 years, marijuana users died no sooner than nonusers.
The second study looked at 45,450 S

I have a 23 yr old son whom was finally diagnosed with Lennox Gastaut Syndrome at the age of 8.. I fought for 5 years to get a diagnosis for his condition after him almost dying from uncontrollable seizures ( in excess of 100 a day) and almost loosing all muscle control when I lived in Martinsburg and finally got a diagnosis at the Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore Md and from there was sent to Childrens Hospital in Pittsburgh Pa.. I wish I would have known of the benefits of CBDs then because maybe we could have stopped this damage along time ago and he would be able to funtion at an age level closer to his biological age than to currently function as about a 7 yr old.. I only wish I had better resources to help me possibly get him some to try and see if it would help with possibly omitting all medications all together because they are causing bad side effects from prolonged usage..

Like I said. It would be a interesting case study if the only medical marijuana that was distributed was in the delivery method this child has to use.

Chula if by chance your not just another tag of a poster. Amberg feels racism about white men. She is illogical because on a earlier time on the board she described a unfortunate situation that happen with a boyfriend. She now has a stereotypical view of white men,because her reasoning ability allowed her to pick a degenerate. It's funny to hear her call people racist because she embodies their generalizations to a T.

Leading with being on disability on a message board is suspicious to me especially after you get called out of you lack of reading comprehension. Again you and Amberg are great at dishing out the name calling,but can't take it. Then like Amberg you counter with some victimization to try for pity. Wow you two have a lot in common,why not start a support group for the oh poor pitiful people. You could whine in stereo.

Oh my goodness we need to put these people in jail for breaking the law :O . Let's make sure that our flawless justice system gives them more jail time than a sex offender. Let's conform and implement these police state policies so Majoritan can be happy. Let's bring back Jim Crow policies too so Majoritan can feel better about himself

Let's not forget that marijuana, even though it is technically illegal, is an herb plant… 100% natural, organic plant… It baffles me that its 2013 and its still illegal and people actually go to jail for having a plant in their possession! The tobacco, alcohol and prescription drug industries along with the government have made enough money over the last 100 years from taxes etc, it's time to legalize the plant and move on… but that would cut into the governments pocket because if it is legalized they would have a hard time taxing it… pretty sad if you ask me, did I mention it's a plant, that grows wild in many parts of the world?

The majority of the regular commenters on these comment boards are old, white, intolerant, conservative, misogynistic, racist men who haven't had an original thought since the 1970s/1980s. They don't like anyone trying to usurp them or call them on their BS. So, women and minorities aren't allowed opinions that are opposite theirs, and their opinions are always detrimental to women and minorities. They have lost their mojo big time and are looking to blame others for their loss of power. The funniest irony is most of the posters are raging jerks, yet they think everyone else is a jerk but not them. Heck no.

OpenSUSE Opens up Kernel Git Repository
The openSUSE project has decided to set up an open Git repository for its kernel instead of the daily kernel snapshot.
Different than the previous "Kernel of the Day," a once daily snapshot over FTP of Novell's kernel, openSUSE developers at Novell will be synchronizing the new Git repository several times daily. The old kernel shapshot, however, will continue to be maintained for testers who don't work directly in the kernel.
A new wiki page describes how to use the openSUSE Git. In Joe Brockmeier's words, "We hope the new Git repository will be helpful to anyone testing openSUSE kernels or building their own derivatives." The recommended way to include patches in the openSUSE kernel is still to push them upstream. Changing anything in the packaging or scripts requires sending patches to the email@example.com development list.

Calling class of 1978 alums! Back to Top
by Pat Glenn
34 years and still going strong. Yes, that's right, 34 years!
This summer we had a mini reunion that served as a practice event for our upcoming official reunion in 2013. Most of us have not seen one other in 20 or 30 years, and we came from near and far: Baltimore County/City, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and even the west coast – California and Seattle! It started when Pat and some of us thought we should get a few people together for a lunch. Then we began contacting anyone we had emails for as well as by word of mouth.
Everyone had a great time, renewing old ties and comparing stories. We had a LOT of decades of experience to compare! We had a house party at Ceil (Perrone) and Dave Daniels' house, subsequently deemed the official party house. We did all sorts of things: looked through family albums to reminisce about our children, played SingSong music and toasted the Class 1978.
We made great efforts to reach as many classmates as possible. For those who did not receive notice for this gathering, please contact us. Please email Pat Glenn at email@example.com with Notre Dame in the subject line. You may also get in touch with us through our Facebook page (please email us and we will get you connected to the private Facebook group). We look for your help in planning newsletters and planning the 35th Reunion in 2013. We have a photo website and are actively looking for old college photos so we can put together a great slideshow at our 35th Reunion!

Montrose Society - Ruth Luddy Toro, M.D. '60 Back to Top
Why have you chosen to support NDMU with a legacy gift as a member of the Montrose Society?
I am grateful for the excellent, well-rounded education I received to prepare me for medical school, at a time when not many women entered medical school. I truly value the camaraderie of and friendships made with classmates and faculty.
As a graduating senior I was very grateful to receive the Alumnae Scholarship (of $500) from the College. Medical school was a significant expense and with this scholarship I purchased a microscope. Additionally, I received a partial scholarship for tuition from the College, which amounted to 1/4 of my tuition at that time. It didn't seem significant to me; however, my parents were appreciative of the contribution. For these reasons I created a legacy bequest intention for NDMU.
Legacy giving is very important to the future of NDMU. Unrestricted current use funds are always necessary, and it is best to let leadership determine where the contributions will make the greatest impact for the institution.

Malala Yousafzai Attack Shows the Need to Keep Pushing for Women's Education
In a Letter to the Editor published in the Baltimore Sun, Dr. Conneely and Sr. Kathleen Cornell, provincial leader of the School Sisters of Notre Dame, wrote: "The tragic assassination attempt in Pakistan against 14-year-old student Malala Yousafzai, merely because she was a female who spoke out for women's education, is a disturbing reminder that there are still places in our world where an educated woman is considered a threat. ... It is a potent reminder that progress for women does not always proceed linearly."

LG unveils netbook with integrated 3G modem
LG unveiled the LG-X120 netbook during MWC which follows their previous LG-X110 model. Not traditionally known as a computer manufacturer, it looks as though LG recognizes the need for true mobility integrated with a computer. Netbook sales have boomed last year and will continue to see strong growth with more competition in the market during the year. The LG-X120 sports an integrated HSPA modem, 160GB hard drive, and LG's Smart-On technology that allows users to access some programs after turning on the netbook without having to wait for Windows XP or alternate operating system to load up. It also offers a 3 or 6 cell battery that should give users roughly 3.5 to 7 hours of run time. No word yet if any carrier will be offering the product or what the subsidized pricing may come out to.

"LG unveiled at the LG-X120 netbook during MWC which follows their previous LG-X110 model. "...............this is hilarious. It should read "LG unveiled the LG-X120 netbook during MWC which follows their previous LG-X110 model. " I think I commented last week about this fabulous thing called proof reading. One would think that such a highly visited place such as phonearena.com would be a little better about grammar. It's amazing.

Skip to comments.HPD: Purse-snatching suspects stabbed moments later by another victim
Posted on 04/20/2012 5:26:43 PM PDT by Morgana
HOUSTON Police say two suspects got away with a 71-year-old womans purse, but they didnt get away with it for long.
According to court documents, just 10 minutes after the theft, the same suspects were stabbed by another victim they were trying to rob.
Now, Mitchell Womack and Ronnie Curry are facing aggravated robbery charges.
It all started on March 30, 2012, around 7:15 p.m., when police said the suspects approached the 71-year-old victim as she walked to her car after work in the 7400 block of Harwin.
The victim said she noticed the men pull up in a gold car, and then the passenger got out and demanded her purse.
When she refused, the victim said the passenger punched her in the mouth.
The impact knocked her to the ground, and she let him take her bag.
The victim said she had to roll over to keep from getting hit by the suspects car as it sped away.
But police said Womack and Curry tried to rob another person about six blocks away, and it didnt turn out so well.

Jesse Jackson, do you have a pony in this race?
If Obama had two son's they would look like this....
Why isn't this story about the other robbery?
Because this is a story on "a darwin award" or at least stupid crooks going for it.
I predict that the day will come when women and men will routinely carry decoy purses/wallets that "may" contain fatal surprises for their assailants. I don't want to see that, but I do think it will happen. Especially as there appears to be a "protected" class that is getting braver or just more brazen in their actions.
Two more "Sons of Obama" being racially persecuted by a knife wielding racist woman.
But seriously, folks. I am a big advocate of knives, especially in close range encounters. Under 10-15 feet, against the typical dummy, even if they have a gun, a capable knife user can slice and dice faster and more effectively than most people would imagine.
And knife injuries are far more prone to kill than gunshots, even with emergency medical care.
Brutes like these two either try to use their fists or have a gun, which they think gives them power and control, though often they don't even have bullets and have never fired a gun. On top of it, they probably want something else that they are focused on, like a purse or wallet; whereas you are focused on cutting them to ribbons.
Booby traps are illegal, and dangerous.
Yep, you are right... But I see civilization starting to breakdown. And once a segment of the population doesn't care at all about what is legal or illegal then anything goes. I'm not saying its right, I just think that it is a good possibility if things keep going the way they are.
Not all people are sheep to be eaten by the wolves amongst us, some will fight back.
I've always got possession of a knife. Except when I'm in the shower. But even then I have on close by. I believe my most dangerous knife is the 2 1/2 inch bladed one. It's quite sharp and doesn't look threatening at all. But if I put it in the right spot....
I lived on an alley and always kept my front door unlocked and open for most of the year (it was on the beach), only locking it for bed, my friends used to tease me for keeping a knife stored by the shower head.
I didn't want to keep a gun or a high quality knife ( I prefer carbon steel) in there with the wetness, so I kept about a 5 or 6 inch bladed, made in India, cheap, but sharp, stainless steel knife.
Does "Bernard Goetz" ring a bell?
Expect to get the Zimmerman treatment by the Race Hustlers if you get caught.
Bladed weapons are just amazing things. I heard from an experienced emergency room doctor that the most nightmarish blade injury in his experience was unexpected, a wobbly kung-fu sword. They don't even look like a "real" sword, but the cut they leave severs capillaries like crazy.
Most of the time they are left with blunt edges, but every now and then somebody sharpens one, and the injuries are most often training accidents.
Half devious, half stupid.
If Obama had sons...
Happy ending indeed. I wonder if it was "for Trayvon" or if the vics where also of color. Scum like that make me feel sorry for all the upstanding Blacks that would love for the race baiting crap to stop as much as the rest of us.
I think you're referring to the swords used in Wu Shu that are supposed to be demos only. We used dull, heavier broadswords, and still got lacerations during practice. Fortunately, our sifu was also a practitioner of Chines medicine and had herbs that smelled like Christmas cookie spices but that stopped bleeding very quickly. It's pretty bizarre to practice w/sharpened ones.
Maybe I need to make myself a little more clear.
Back in the 1970's when I was in the service I had some interesting experiences. But for this little screed all I will say is that I would be absent from civilian life for month's at a time with no contact with news media or other entertainment facilities.
When I would come back to the U.S. I would see more and more tensions in the street and especially in the news. There was NO good news it was always something it seemed that was designed to get certain "elements" of the populace more and more inflamed and willing to do acts that were at the least anti-social and at the worst totally illegal, rape, murder, etc.
And the "normal" citizen who just wanted to live peacefully and have and raise their children in the same way they were raised began to look at the cities, especially the inner cities where there had once been neighborhoods in a different light.
Gone or at least going was the sense of community and knowing that your neighbors could be relied upon if you needed help. Knowing that Mr. Johnson could always help if your bike needed to be fixed. Or that Mrs. Smith's house was a good place to go if you wanted a cookie or a drink if you needed one.
Gone or going was the knowledge that as a kid you could go outside to play all day long in the summer and your parents didn't have to worry about your safety because there were always the eyes of your neighbors watching out for all of the kids and keeping an eye on the neighborhood.
In any case life for the citizenry was changing in uncomfortable ways, for instance there had always been gangs of teenagers, but for the most part they were large groups of friends doing things together, now the media was showing and highlighting a different kind of gang. Teenager and early twenties who were to be honest, quite vicious and to get respect in the gang you had to be just as vicious or even more over the top in savagery. The Bloods and Crips come to mind immediately.
Movies were being made that portrayed these types of gangs and what appeared in the movies was being copied across the nation by "disadvantaged youth".
An interesting thing occurred then, Charles Bronson and the Death Wish movie came out. He was called an anti-hero by the critics and the media. But I saw a cooling down of the rhetoric by the media and the tensions they had been pushing and prodding began to diminish and after Ronald Reagan was elected president it was "Springtime in America" again.
Now looking back through the filter of time I believe that the media learned an interesting lesson on how to effect the social dynamics of a country through small but near constant repetition of a message they wanted to present.
And they've been doing it again since 2001 and they are about to see the fruits of those seeds they planted come forth and I believe that they just cannot wait for it.
And this time... I'm not sure that it will be stopped or even just be allowed to die down. There is a prize, a goal they have been working for and they are not going to stop until they win it.
And the Losers will be the people of the United States who used to be the majority and considered to be the "Normal" ones. The people who believe that work will be rewarded and that their families and children are precious and are worth every bit of sacrifice to raise their children to be upstanding "Normal" adults who will in their turn have families of their own...
You are correct, those are the blades. I hesitated in calling them Wushu, because there are so many different kinds of Wushu blades.
As far as stopping bleeding goes, the US Army has invested a lot in the development of "potato powder", and for a long while they bought up just about every bit that was manufactured.
Marvelous stuff. One of the OTC kinds now sold is called Urgent QR, and I've even had success with it even on scalp wounds that typically bleed all over the place. I gather that with direct pressure, it can staunch bigger capillaries than I had to deal with.
It makes what looks like great big scabs over the wound that behave much like regular scabs. It's a lot better than the typical vasoconstrictors that are used, which can cause problems. And it is also non-toxic. Still kind of hard to get in drug stores.
If you don't have anything special to stop bleeding, just grab a tea bag, wet it and press it on the wound. The tanic acid acts as a vasoconstrictor.
Be warned, it will sting!! but it will stop the bleeding.
Good for them.....
If civilization breaks down to that extent, then long before it's "boobytrapped purse" time, it will be "shoot hoodie wearing thugs on sight" time.
Amazon.com has Urgent QR in stock for $6.25
And knife injuries are far more prone to kill than gunshots, even with emergency medical care.....Bullshit. Remember the scene in "raiders of the lost Ark"? All the slicing and dicing you want will be stopped WITH A .22 in your elbow. Let alone a .44 in your nuts.
Most knife attacks are warning cuts, whether they were intended as such or not, they are magical, 'stay away from me' cuts and jabs.
Your chances of meeting someone who knows how to use his knife, and who maintains a high grade knife devoted to fighting is very slim.
Guns are serious, knives rarely so, although a couple of thousand people are killed with knives every year, we don't need research to tell us that knives, from kitchen knives, to pocket knives, are probably used on a massive scale to stop arguments and aggressions, without being deadly, or even inflicting wounds bad enough for the drunks, or the dopers, or the brother and laws, to seek medical treatment.
I think that many people if they think on it a few minutes can remember when people they have known have indulged in, or been on the recieving end of a little meaningless knife incident.
Knives are exceedingly serious. Typically, a police officer will be threatened with 8 times as many knives as guns.
The Tueller Drill determined that in a duel between a person armed with a holstered gun and a person armed with a knife, that within 21 feet the person armed with the knife has the advantage.
Professional and experienced LEOs typically fail the Tueller Drill at 15 feet.
About 2% of all officer deaths in the US per year are from stabbings. As a percentage of stabbings resulting in deaths, the stats show about 8 of 10 will die from the stabbing.
To put that into perspective, the death rates for firearms is about 6 of 10 shootings result in fatalities.
I prefer facing knives. The stuff you are claiming is total nonsense, knife statistics are impossible to know because the use of knives is so common and routine that people sober up, patch the cut or wound and never go to the police.
The knife is the weapon that is most frequently used among friends, family and party buddies, yet they only account for a couple of thousand deaths a year. I have faced my share of guns and knives, I much prefer facing the knife whether I am armed or not, in fact, in some cases, the problem was trying to slow the laughing as the angry drunk tried to cut me or someone else.
This is an idiotic claim.
""And knife injuries are far more prone to kill than gunshots, even with emergency medical care.""
If that were true, there would be 100s of thousands of knife deaths.
Here are the wound figures for 1992, and as I said, most knife cuts and wounds are covered up by the people involved. ""Another 134,000 gunshot survivors and 3,100,000 cut/stab wound survivors received medical treatment.""
Unless all those new "assault knives" and "cop killer knives", "exploding knives", and "hollow point" knives that must have appeared over the last 20 years changed the percentages, then no, ""And knife injuries are far more prone to kill than gunshots, even with emergency medical care."" that isn't true.
So is robbery.
Pedestrian woman with "booby-trapped" decoy purse gets hit by car and knocked out; cop on the scene opens purse to look for identification...
That's why booby traps are illegal and dangerous.

Nissan is set to introduce a touch of spice to its Pulsar range that has fallen short of initial sales targets.
An updated Pulsar sedan is on the way with a turbocharged engine that could inject interest into the range.
The sedan will share its turbocharged 1.6-litre motor with the Pulsar SSS and ST-S hatchbacks that produce 140 kW and 240Nm.
Peter Clissold, executive general manager of marketing for Nissan Australia, says the new model is just around the corner.
"An announcement is about to be made on that front," he says.
"You can expect news on that front in the next couple of months. It's a great powertrain and the sedan is an attractive vehicle. I think it will be fun."
Clissold says peppy engines and more technology could be the key to unlocking the Pulsar's potential. Nissan executives previously claimed it would be the best-selling car in its class - and potentially the most popular car in Australia - but the car has not met those expectations.
Sales of the Pulsar for the year to date are 37 per cent behind where they were last year. Nissan registered less than 1200 examples of the car in June, a month when Toyota sold nearly 4700 Corollas.
Clissold says Nissan Australia is working to bridge the gap between the Pulsar and its rivals.
The marketing boss says Nissan has a "healthy" stock of unsold Pulsars. Those cars could soon be the subject of promotions intended to put sales back on track.
"We are seeing some space in offering customers turbo and spec both in sedans and hatches," he says.
"Our new challenge is focused on "upgrade" models, both in terms of content as well as turbo engines."

Don't Give Up on the U.S.-Russian Reset
Don't Give Up on the U.S.-Russian Reset
Hope that the U.S.-Russia "reset" would survive Vladimir Putin's return to the Russian presidency has crumbled in the last few months, as Moscow pulled out of several cooperative agreements underpinning the U.S.-Russia partnership.
All is not lost, however. Moscow and Washington still agree on a global agenda they can tackle in concert. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov described his first meeting with new U.S. secretary of state John Kerry in Berlin on February 26, discussing Syria and Russian orphans, as "constructive." Following talks on nonproliferation cooperation last week, Rose Gottemoeller, acting U.S. undersecretary of state for arms control and international security, and Russian deputy foreign minister Sergei Ryabkov were similarly upbeat.

This post was originally published on Lisa's blog Health Practices Online.
Do you have your ebook written and you're now ready to make it available for purchase on your website? If so, here are your next steps:
1. Save your ebook as a pdf with an appropriate title.
Let's pretend the title of this blog post was actually an ebook. When I save this word document I save it with the title of "How to Sell an Ebook from Your Website". Works find in a file folder on my computer, not so great once uploaded online. If my intention was to upload this for use online, I'd save it as "how-to-sell-an-ebook" or something like that. All lowercase with words separated by dashes – no blank spaces.
2. Upload the ebook to your webhost.
You have two options here. The first is to upload directly to your webhost via your control panel. This means your ebook will be located at a URL somewhat like http://healthpracticesonline.com/how-to-sell-an-ebook.pdf. If you have a WordPress based website, the second choice is to upload the pdf as a media file. In this case the URL will be something like http://healthpracticesonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/how-to-sell-an-ebook.pdf.
Once you have your ebook uploaded note the URL. You'll need it later.
Aside: With the above methods your ebook pdf is not private. I don't typically worry about this. The likelihood someone is going to directly enter the long URL to access your ebook is slim and it's also very slim anyone would find it via a Google search. However, if you are concerned about privacy here are a couple of options. 1. Password protect the pdf and provide the password to those who purchase on the thank you page or in the thank you email. 2. Use a service like Amazon S3 to protect your document privacy.
3. Create a buy button.
PayPal is an easy option that is widely used for collecting payment, so I'm going to use that service as my example for how to create a buy button.
- Log in to your PayPal account.
- Click on Merchant Services.
- Select "Create a new button".
- Choose button type. In this instance, it'll be a "buy now" button.
- Enter your product name.
- Enter the price.
- Scroll down and click on the blue "Step 3" menu bar.
- Mark the checkbox next to "Take customers to this URL when they finish checkout" and enter your product pdf URL created above.
- Click orange "Create Button" at the bottom.
Copy and paste the buy button "website" code into a program like Notepad for use on your sales page.
Aside: After purchase you may choose to redirect customers to a thank you page that then has a link to download your ebook instead of automatically redirecting them to the pdf.
4. Create a sales page.
Where are you going to have the buy link for this ebook located? On a dedicated sales page of your website? As an option on your products page? Set up or update the appropriate web page and insert the buy button code provided by PayPal for your buy button.
Aside: It's great to have an ebook cover image created to visually represent your ebook on the sales page.
5. Follow up.
I recommend you follow up with everyone who purchases via email as well to ensure they we able to access the ebook. You can set this up automatically by setting up an autoresponder in your list management system and connecting PayPal with your list management system. In this case, when someone purchases they would automatically be added to the appropriate autoresponder and receive a thank you email after purchase is complete. This is an option if you use Aweber and PayPal. For other list management services you may not be able to connect the two. In that case, I recommend manual follow up. This can still be quick and easy if you keep an email template ready for cut/paste purposes.
I have a couple ebooks for sell using the above method. You can see how the sales pages are set up with a PayPal buy button:
All the best,

According to a number of investigators schizophrenia is a disorder of adaptation on a biochemical level. Since immunogenesis is a basic biologic adaptive mechanism it is not surprising that many efforts have been made to examine linkages or parallelisms between schizophrenia and immune processes.
In past years the relatively high susceptibility to tuberculosis among hospitalized schizophrenics was well recognized. Kallman1,2 has demonstrated a genetic relationship in this predisposition. On the other hand, one of us (E. F.) has been impressed for some time with the relative infrequency of severe respiratory infections, streptococcal tonsillitis, or infectious diarrhea in Manhattan State Hospital. Annual reports of the Department of Mental Hygiene of New York State likewise indicate low morbidity rates for a number of communicable diseases among hospitalized patients, while a recent observation from England also points to the relative freedom of schizophrenics from colds,

Catalysts, Not Uranium Prices, Grow Stocks
Geordie Mark, The Energy Report
The Energy Report: Investors have focused on how the Japanese earthquake and the tsunami that shut down the nuclear plant in Fukushima might influence the demand for nuclear fuel going forward. Clearly, this has been the elephant in the room. But, I wonder about the other shoe that dropped on May 30 when Germany formally announced plans to abandon nuclear energy completely within 11 years. That includes the immediate closure of seven plants. Switzerland and Italy may follow suit. Will this have a watershed effect on any other major economic powers?

A new public-private partnership to give students more access to the arts was announced today in Charleston County.
Engaging Creative Minds is a $400,000 effort that will benefit eight pilot schools starting in January, and its goals are to engage students in learning through the arts and enhance schools' partnerships with local artists.
The partnership hopes to expand to all county schools and neighboring Dorchester 2 and Berkeley schools in the future. It will begin by serving more than 1,700 students at the following elementary schools: Angel Oak, Ashley River Creative Arts, Jennie Moore, James Island, James Simons, Ladson, Memminger and Pepperhill.
The partnership is working to establish itself as a separate nonprofit organization, and it will be an umbrella group for all of the arts-related efforts working in schools.
The partnership has received the support of Charleston, Mount Pleasant and North Charleston, as well as the College of Charleston and the South Carolina Arts Commission. Private donors include The Boeing Company, Target, the McNair Law Firm, Gil Shuler Graphic Design, Alloneword and philanthropist Anita Zucker.
Officials unveiled the new partnership today at a press conference at the school district's downtown office and said it has been in the works for 18 months. It's modeled on a Dallas partnership, Big Thought.
"We expect a very exciting future," said Scott Shanklin-Peterson, an associate professor at the College of Charleston who's been the project manager for Engaging Creative Minds. "This is going to be a tremendously successful arts organization."

The Sharks have won three consecutive games.
There is no compelling mathematical argument to be made for the Sharks missing the playoffs.
SAN JOSE Logan Couture might be a little reluctant to flip the calendar to a new year on Sunday.
SAN JOSE Coming off of one of their worst defensive efforts of the season, the Sharks will be without Douglas Murray when they host the NHL-leading Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night.
SAN JOSE The Minnesota Wild have won five games in a row, and its due in no small part to their penalty kill.

lilsasscat said: we are the princess-kin!! we must return to the sacred valley!!
Oh my glob. Last year there were a bunch of femmes who made 'glamourkin' a thing in response to the otherkins who were being really shitty about 'oh we're just like trans people! I'm really black/disabled/a vampire and therefore understand oppression!'
And it was all stuff about how 'in reality i am in a one bedroom apartment. But in my mind I am on a settee by one of my many pools, dripping in diamonds, with a man servant feeding me champagne and caviar'.
It kind of inspired me a lot and I wish it had taken off more.
