If you can't beat 'em, drop your prices and raise their taxes
The people who brought you the 35 hour work week, national socialism, and an unatural love for Jerry Lewis are upset that the US supports corporations subject to unfair dumping of European products:
Evidently, some evil Repugnican thought that it wasn't fair that Euro and Canuck corproations got to sell their goods in America for less than it cost to produce them. Who is the evil right-winger neocon fanatic?
Oops. Never mind.
Albert Einstein is going to be so bummed
This is not a post about Evolution or Creationism. It is however, a reminder that the scientists who know everything keep being reminded that they don't:
That is unless, of course, the good folks at Nature.com are really shills for the extremist, fanatical Christian right that is really running this country in concert with the Jews. I'll have to ask Hillary what's up with all this.

Is France Our Future?
You really should take the time to read Macomber's latest. It kicks the French for their self-destructive socialist ways and does it in what may be the most thorough way I can imagine. Specifically, it relates to the rescinding of the French law that mandated no more than 35 hour work weeks.
While it is fun to kick France (though "cheese eating surrender monkey" has grown stale), the truth is that France is a not-so-pretty picture of America's potential future. Where we haven't gone quite that far down the road, and while we may never get there, it is still a powerful warning about our own socialized systems.
Consider, when welfare went through meaningful reform, the cry from the left was that we were rolling back decades of social progress--that a wealthy society could afford more compassion for the poor, not less. The same accusation is being made about Social Security. Even people who lean right on social issues can fall into the "wealthy can afford it" trap; they believe that the wealthy can afford higher taxes to supplement health care or education or the National Endowment for the Arts or whatever pet program that someone, somewhere might believe will change the world for the better.
The sense of entitlement coupled to a willingness to delve further into income redistribution in the name of societal progress leads to, as Shawn put it, "shackling anyone with motivation to a sinking raft of bureaucrats and the lazy." He says that about France, but it would take a blind man to ignore the implications for American society.
Heinlein was, and always will be, right. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch; and that means that if you aren't paying for it, someone else is. While I'll always support the idea that governments are necessary (no anarchist here), the level of intervention and control that a government has to have to support its primary functions is something substantially less than the size and scope of our current government.
Bureaucracy tends to self-perpetuate, and if citizens are unwilling to prune the growth back from time to time, a nation will become like France: moribund, overburdened, and under-motivated with a stale economy and marginal industry. I don't really want that future for the United States.

Terri Schiavo has Died
Foxnews is reporting that Terri has died.
From Nat Hentoff's article this week in the Village Voice:
As the argument over the subject in the blogosphere has grown increasingly passionate, I've stood by and watched. I watched quietly because the arguments have grown increasingly acrimonious and I have no wish to start name calling and picking fights. It also became increasingly clear that no appeals court was going to overturn the original ruling; sadly I watched as the inevitable played out to its obvious conclusion.
So, Terri has died and her family mourns. I mourn with them.
Don Singleton adds his thoughts and links to quite a few others.

Blogger Bash 4.0: You Are Going, Aren't You?
Rocky Mountain Blogger Bash 4.0 is coming up this weekend. If you've been wondering whether you should attend, it's only fair to tell you that not only will you (probably) get to meet all of the people on this list--and whatever others didn't quite meet my (arbitrary and completely unfair) RSVP date--but you'll also get to drink.
Stay focused, people.

Back to the Idol
Tonight they sing the 90's. There was a lot of really good stuff in that decade, but there was just as much crap. This could be frightening…
Bo Bice Some Black Crows song. This song sucks--in its original version and in this setting. The good of it is that the man knows how to perform and that's his saving grace. The vocal performance wasn't so great tonight, but the overall performance was, ahem, rockin'. Simon's wedding singer comment was a little harsh, but the fact is that this wasn't a great musical moment.
Can I tell you how much I hated the Black Crows? I don't see myself ever being nostalgic for that band…
The rest of the updates will be in the extended entry to save McGehee's rather particular tastes.

Hey, Who Turned on the Lights?
Evolution. Intelligent Design. Creation Science. Creationism. Big Bang.
See, I know what I believe and I have yet to have someone explain either side of the argument to me in a way that moves me much from my chosen position. But it does seem to be raising a few hackles these days, doesn't it?
So, in the spirit of inquiry, I ask, "Who turned on the lights?"
And while you think about that--and whatever implications it might have--I invite you to peruse the creation mythology of other cultures.
Rock on, dude!
Check out the rest o the top 10 "Intelligent Designs."
(Warning: If you have a slightly naughty mind, you might imagine the the illustration of the Egyptian creation myth (number 7) is illustrating a slightly uncomfortable sexual position. Or maybe it's just me...)
Miss Jo's Kentucky Derby Q & A
A brief Question and Answer segment for those who know nothing about the Kentucky Derby.

Review: Woven Hand at Benders Tavern
On Good Friday, the g-phrase and I attended what was probably the best concert that I will see this year.
Benders Tavern is a bar and small concert venue that sits in the building formerly occupied by the Goth bar, Onyx. Where it used to be dark and gloomy, with its TVs showing a mix of stylish and campy cult films, Benders is a brighter space with more buoyant colors. It was the first time I had been in the bar since before it had changed ownership, and the experience was a little disconcerting.
The part that made it so strange wasn't the new style, though, it was that some of the clientele didn't seem to have changed all that much. Pierced and tattooed people still attended, wearing their uniforms of black PVC and leather, carefully cultivating their ironic detachment and sartorial separatism. At least one of the concertgoers was a former Onyx employee who wore a familiar starter Al Jourgenson Goth cowboy getup. I was surprised to see them at the comparatively happy Benders and even more surprised to see them attending a Christian rock concert.
But that's precisely what was happening. The scene was the people--the tiny shot girl with the pink, wool bunny ear cap and an unsettling, vampiric smile; the cocktail waitress with the exaggerated, cat's eye granny glasses; the cocktail waitress with what looked to be tatts covering her entire torso and arms. Scattered throughout was a smattering of people like me: jeans and sweaters type people who looked more out of place than the guy with plugs in his earlobes.

Beading, My Anti-Drug
Pedantry has a quick rant about anti-drug measures on an Indian reservation in Maine. (Click on the link to go see the ad.)
Meanwhile, Kevin at Wizbang has more information about the shooting at Red Lake Indian reservation in Minnesota. The shooter had a partner. They may have been planning another Columbine. A decade or so ago in a native town in Canada a bunch of teenagers decided to commit suicide by sniffing gas. They were found out and saved but not until after they'd sniffed a lot of gas and lost a lot of brain cells.
The idea that we should preserve an ancient way of life, and force people who through the sheer chance of genetics happen to be inheritors of this ancient way of life to live that life is insane. It's more than insane, it's racist.
There are many who choose to preserve their ancestors' ways. That's fine with me, and I support it. I'm not sure what the ancient ways have to do with casinos, bungalows and beat up Fords, but that's not my concern. If the goal is to preserve tribal identity and live as a nation-within-a-nation then there's something that needs to be said—You can't preserve tribal identity if your kids are frying their brains using the white mans drugs.
You guys need a different plan. Personally, I don't think making beads for tourists cuts it.
Note: There are tribes out there that are quite successful. I mean no disprespect to them.

What if? (Sadaam version)
From the NYT: Panel's Report Assails C.I.A. for Failure on Iraq Weapons. Just think, if the CIA had gotten their facts straight then Sadaam Hussein would still be in charge and the Left would be smiling. And, dissenters would still be being fed into industrial shredders feet first. Uday and Qsay would still be, literally, raping the populace, the secret police would still be kidnapping people, and 25 million Iraqis would have been spared the humiliation and indignities of democracy.
Seriously though, we're not getting our money's worth out of the CIA and other spy agencies. These agencies have been politicized since at least the Vietnam War. I hope Negroponte can clean house and get the agency back to being respectable. Ironically, I think the best way to do this is to remove Congressional oversight of the agencies. Pontificating politicians bloviating to their core constituencies have damaged our abilities to protect ourselves. It ain't right.
On the other hand, if CIA incompetence is what it took to get us into Iraq and free 25 million people from oppression, then maybe we need more "incompetence."
A final note to all current and future despots—next time the CIA asks you some questions, be honest in your answers. It would also help if you gave them unfettered access to your facilities.

Stylishly cynical, this novel deals with the adventures of an American journalist. After more than a year in an African prison, he winds up in California, where he stumbles upon a political scandal that "could fall somewhere in between Teapot Dome and Watergate." The governor-elect, a man who can't wait to become President, is only one of the etched-with-acid characters. Everyone else is venal, corrupt, decadent, mean, greedy and just plain awful, too. Thomas, author of The Eighth Dwarf and The Mordida Man, is a tough-guy novelist with crispness to his prose and dialogue. He turns this violent, dark story into a fast-paced ironic caper.

I started quilting in 2009. My mother owns a quilt shop in Wickenburg, AZ and she hired me on to run the shop. She went to a quilt show and left me with cut pieces of fabric, a pattern and a 5 minute run down on how to use the sewing machine. With that I made my first quilt with very little mistakes. After that I was hooked. Since then I've made 31 quilts and a few purses. We had to make shop samples of quilts to show off the fabric we had and I didn't like the patterns that would come from the manufacturers so I tried designing my own. People loved the detail I put into my patterns and how versatile the patterns are. I was hooked and now love to design. In 2011 I was inducted into the Arizona Quilters Hall of Fame. One of the quilts I designed won a viewers choice award in a Wickenburg quilt show. Now living in Vernal, UT I'm a stay at home mom to my 2 year old daughter and an avid quilter. I'm continuing designing and hope to sell my patterns. To spread the joy of quilting to all generations with versatile patterns in all ranges of difficulty. I hope you find them as wonderful as I do and help me continue my dream of making a living being a Quilt Designer. Enjoy and please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.Read More » View all patterns by designer (7) »
This is an amazingly simple pattern that also looks very elegant. It's a great beginners quilt and has been used in many classes.
Don't you love it when you have that last minute gift that you have to make and no time to do it in? Well here is your answer. This is so fast and easy to put together and people love it!
It can be an elegant quilt for a woman you care about, a fun children's quilt, or even put in some masculine fabrics for a great man. Heck, make it for yourself!
You will be satisfied with the results and it is fun to put together.

The photo shows Martin Willows presenting a bottle of wine to guest speaker, Richard Blakey
A seasoned 'performer' at Cricket Societies, Richard Blakey certainly lived up to his reputation as he provided an entertaining conclusion to our 2015/2016 season.
Richard debuted for his county at the age of 18 and had a distinguished career playing over 750 matches for Yorkshire, making him Yorkshire's fifth most capped player of all time - an amazing feat. During that time he never missed one day through injury which is remarkable for a wicket-keeper.
He was part of Yorkshire's County Championship winning team in 2001 and captained them to victory at the C&G final in 2002. He also played in five matches for England, making his international debut against Pakistan at Lords in 1992. He scored close to 15,000 first class runs with a personal best of 223 not out off 206 balls against Northamptonshire in 2003 and after taking over as glove man from David Bairstow he claimed 835 victims.
In taking us through the highlights of his career, humour was never far away. The story of the young bowler who significantly contributed to Yorkshire winning the County Championship in 2001 was hilarious, particularly with the use of props!
None of our members could also ever go into a coffee shop in the future without thinking of Darren Gough!!
Richard was a person who made a highly significant contribution to cricket generally and to Yorkshire. He continues to make a contribution by recalling cricket in his era with great humour, skill and modesty.
Members went home with lots of stories to relay to their fellow cricket enthusiasts.
On behalf of all members we thank Mike Taylor for providing us with a superb season of speakers. The quality and variety has been excellent and continues the high standard established by the society over many years.

After two decades in the NFL, Andy Reid has seen many changes - it's what he says keeps his job fresh even as he enters his 14th season as Eagles head coach.
So as debate swirls around the NFL's increasing restrictions on some hits and the stiff penalties handed out for the New Orleans Saints bounty scandal, Reid endorsed the changes meant to make the game safer.
He added that league commissioner Roger Goodell got it right when it came to imposing penalties for the Saints' bounties, lending the backing of the NFL's longest-tenured head coach to suspensions and rule changes that still rile some in the game.

Democrats took away two Republican seats in the Wisconsin Senate in a recall election that could have national implications.
However, Democrats fell just one seat short of taking the majority control of the state senate.
"Republicans are going to continue doing what we promised the people of Wisconsin - improve the economy and get Wisconsin moving back in the right direction," Republican Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald said in a prepared statement after the victory.
Six incumbent GOP state senators were forced to defend their seats in the elections after the bitter fight over Republican Gov. Scott Walker's efforts to limit union workers collective bargaining rights.
Click play for more insight on the situation in Wisconsin from CBN News Senior Editor John Waage.
Democrats, backed by the unions, sought to punish Republican lawmakers who supported the legislation and to send a message to other states who seek to limit union power.
Walker attempted to strike a bipartisan tone in the victory, saying that he'll reach out to both sides.
"In the days ahead I look forward to working with legislators of all parties to grow jobs for Wisconsin and move our state forward," Walker said in a prepared statement.
There had been only 13 other successful recalls of state-level office holders nationwide since 1913.
"The fact of the matter remains that, fighting on Republican turf, we have begun the work of stopping the Scott Walker agenda," said Democratic Party Chairman Mike Tate.
Two Democratic incumbents face recalls next week in the Badger State. Even if they win, Republicans will still hold a narrow 17-16 majority.
More than $31 million was spent on the recall races.

• More than 20,000 acute respiratory illnesses of children were studied by physicians in private practice to derive a nine-factor scorecard designed to estimate the probability that a given child's respiratory illness is caused by β-hemolytic streptococci. Each factor was assigned a weight on the basis of the percentage of positive cultures from patients exhibiting that factor. The sum of these individual scores gave the total score. The higher a patient's score, the more probable was a streptococcal infection. Thus, depending on the score, a reasonably accurate prediction of the probability of a streptococcal infection can be made. The accuracy of such predictions compared favorably with that of skilled physicians.

Platte County charges man with selling illegal explosives
Authorities say explosives found while serving search warrant July 3
Platte County authorities charged an Overland Park, Kan., man with selling illegal explosives.
Douglas P. Smith, 44, was charged with one count of selling illegal explosives and one count of possessing a controlled substance.
According to court documents, Platte County sheriff's deputies found 24 Miller Light aluminum bottles with a red fuses sticking out of the lid, 169 short blue round explosives and 19 round black tubes while serving a search warrant at a home in Platte County on July 3.
Investigators said they determined the explosives had been bought from Smith two weeks before.
Court records indicate that Smith was taken into custody when he tried to collect money for the items deputies found.
Investigators said they recovered more than $7,600 from Smith's vehicle, a handgun and a bottle with a white powdery substance that field-tested positive for cocaine.
According to court documents, Smith allegedly told investigators that he made the explosives at his apartment.

Damn. I'm such a bad liar. OK fine, I wish that "rabbis" had decided that they will now push the pre-date agreement. Here is my dream article, as if this were true:
Finally, leaders of the Jewish community have decided they must take a stand against all the lack of derech eretz happening within the dating world. They have begun drafting a pre-date agreement which is inspired by the pre-nup agreement being signed by couples before they get married. This new and innovative document helps people be more clear of how things will run during and if necessary, when ending, their mutual dating experience.
One rabbi, who currently requested to remain anonymous, contacted HaBitza.com. He explained that the committee would like to make sure that all the most important points will appear on the document. He thought that HaBitza might be the perfect platform where this discussion could take place.
I have decided to start the discussion by supplying a few points I feel are important to agree upon before beginning to date someone. In the comments below please let us know what else you think should be in the "pre-date."
- Both sides agree to be appreciative and show it, too. This means, for example, that they will thank each other when one does something for the other and both will thank each other at the end of the date for giving of their time and energies.
- Both sides agree to do their best to express what they want to say in clear sentences, not expecting the other side to read their minds.
- The man must be in touch with the woman within two days of the date, unless he was extremely seriously wounded while saving a baby in some majorly heroic act. (And, by the way, in the case of the heroism, the girl must fall for the guy whether or not she enjoyed his company on the dates.) This applies whether there is interest in another date or not. If the man really does not have it in him to reject gracefully on the phone, he is allowed, and encouraged, to send a text message so that it is clear to the woman that there will not be another date.
- If there is a misunderstanding, both sides may seek advice from third parties but then the misunderstandings will be spoken about between the two daters. There will be an attempt made on both sides that even if the relationship does not continue, hard feelings are worked through earlier rather than later so that both sides can move on feeling OK about what happened.
- If one person needs it, he/she agrees to go to therapy so they don't, often unknowingly, take out their whole past on their fellow dater. Also, when necessary, the persons needing mesch classes agree to go until the mensch expert believes that from now on the person will be able to hold themselves back from hurting their dates knowingly and unknowingly.
Honestly, I do wish I could agree on certain things with a guy before I even went on a date with him. I am inspired to change the world and make this happen. Maybe matchmakers could discuss these things with people and then only set them up if they are fairly confident the person could uphold their side of the deal. And then, if they ever don't, and don't have a good excuse for it (or don't have a sincere want to work on themselves), the matchmaker would stop setting them up.
What do you think? Make sure to share in the comments what you think should be in this new pre-date agreement!

'For all his maleness, Elvis was a very woman-centered man, because of his closeness with his mother', she says. 'It was women he could really talk with, and from whom he drew much of his strength. The book will look at a number of his relationships, both platonic and romantic. And part of it will consider how his status as one of the greatest sex symbols of the 20th century informed his stage act and his interactions with the opposite sex'.

Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever.
This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.
The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.

Fishermen reel in winning catches
The Canadohta Lake Ice Fishing Tournament was a near perfect winter Saturday on the ice for 174 anglers on Feb. 23. The tournament was rescheduled because of unsafe ice conditions on Feb. 9.
The contest was sponsored by Van Tassel's Timberland Bait Shop on Dutch Hill Road in the lake side community.
"I had a feud with Mother Nature earlier this month," said Gerry Van Tassel of Timberland Shop. "But on the 23rd of February, the ice was safe and thick, the big fish were feeding, the weather was overcast and we had a great turnout."
While Mother Nature was generally cooperative, she wasn't 100 percent well behaved.
"The only problem we had was black ice on the highways," Van Tassel said. "A lot of anglers talked about the road conditions on their way here to the lake. For some, it was a nightmare, but (there were) no mishaps."
Both Gerry and his wife, Sarah, sponsor the popular Canadohta tournament. Sarah prepares much of the food which is included in the ticket price. In the past, the food was hot dogs and sloppy Joes, and some other basics such as smoked fish.
While the hot dogs remained on the icy menu, barbecued pulled pork sandwiches replaced the sloppy Joes this year.
"The pulled pork sandwiches were a winner with a lot of the anglers this year," Van Tassel said. "Some even said they would come back next year just to eat. It was a great crowd of people and we all enjoyed the time. I would like to really thank everyone who has been supporting us over the years."
Anglers catching the largest fish in several categories were awarded cash prizes. The following were the lucky anglers:
Harry Hicks, of Corry, used a large golden shiner as bait to catch an award-winning musky, which measured 40� inches and weighing in at 16 pounds, 6 ounces. He received $550 for his catch.
Twelve-year-old Todd Kaufmann caught a trophy northern pike using a large golden shiner as bait. He returned home to Cochranton with $350 in award money.
The largest walleye was hooked by Kevin Ferrie, whose catch measured 21 inches and was caught using a jigging rapala. The fish tipped the scales at 3 pounds, 5 ounces. Ferrie, of Erie, received $250.
Joe Wailand, who lives in Leechburg, caught the tournament's largest perch. The trophy fish was measured at 11 1/2 inches. He used a golden shiner as bait and was awarded $76 for his catch.
Ben Fleet of Sandy Lake caught the winning crappie using a flathead minnow. His 11-inch catch earned him $75.
Terry Butler, of Butler, won the tournament's 50/50 and took home a prize of $340.
"I would like to thank everyone who participated this year in our tournament; it was a great time," Van Tassel said. "I think everyone, including Sarah and myself, are looking forward to the winter of 2014 and the next ice fishing tournament."

The four-person golf scramble, which raises scholarship money for Kalamazoo County high schoolers in financial need to attend MSU, drew a field of 136 participants to the private golf club on a mostly sunny Monday.
After the Steve Smith Charity Challenge, the 6-foot-8 former Spartans star guard and retired NBA veteran took a few minutes to address recent topics:
Kalamazoo Gazette: You were drafted by the Miami Heat and spent a good chunk of your 14-year NBA career with them. What do you think about the whole LeBron James situation?
Steve Smith: My thing is, you look at LeBron and D-Wade (Dwyane Wade) and (Chris) Bosh, they were all free agents. They didn't ask to be traded; they didn't ask to get out of a contract. They all fulfilled their contracts, and they all had a right to go where they chose to. They all took less money.
KG: Very recently, it was reported that Michael Jordan was asked after a celebrity golf tournament in Nevada what he thought of LeBron joining Wade and Bosh in Miami. Jordan replied, "There's no way, with hindsight, I would've ever called up Larry (Bird), called up Magic (Johnson) and said, 'Hey, look, let's get together and play on one team.' ... In all honesty, I was trying to beat those guys." What are your thoughts on MJ's statement?
SS: I saw it. I saw it. He said, "I always wanted to beat Magic and Larry and those guys, I would've never played with those guys." Did he say that? Yes, he did, but he did with a smile on his face. It was basically taken out of context. I watched it. If I would've just read it, I would've said, "Oh, shoot, what did he say about him? What did Jordan say about these guys?" It was (a short clip), and he said it with a smile.
KG: Last month, Tom Izzo turned down a chance to coach the Cleveland Cavaliers and announced he was an MSU 'lifer.' Do you believe him?
SS: I believe him every time he says it. Different situations come up, like with what happened with the Cleveland situation. One is, an NBA team, you couldn't get any closer (geographically) unless it was the Pistons. A chance to coach LeBron James and the Cavs, a 60-plus-win team. Obviously, it would've had to be with LeBron (on the Cleveland roster). The owner is an MSU alum. I thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime chance. Obviously, if LeBron goes, you have to take a different look at it.
KG: Could Izzo have made it in the NBA?
SS: I think so. He understands the game. A great coach is a great coach. A lot of people make (a deal) out of the difference between college and the NBA. Obviously, it's a different job and you have to understand the nuances. But basketball is basketball. In the NBA, there's the financial situation and guys' contracts.

In Reply.—
Dr Lesser states "Although there is much to be said in favor of nonhospital treatment, the decision not to admit is not, per se, a decision that less experienced trainees should strivefor." I would agree. Dr Lesser misreads our article if he believes that any such recommendation was made. The thrust of our data and our conclusions is that workers should be trained specifically to make these decisions prior to being left alone in an emergency setting. The logical extension of Dr Lesser's conclusion would be to leave the inexperienced worker in the emergency room and accept the fact that he would admit patients unneces sarily because that would be better given his level of training than to make a mistake in not admitting a patient. There is certainly little out come data to support that point of view. Residents without specific training should not be the sole respon

Happy 10th birthday Mac OS X
Apple didn't bring Steve Jobs back per se. In truth, the company purchased NeXT and its OpenStep operating system in 1996, with the company cofounder along for the ride as an advisor. Jobs pushed out Gil Amelio in 1997 following a boardroom coup, but it would take four more years for the son of OpenStep, nee Mac OS X, to replace Apple's original Classic operating system.
On March 24, 2001, a decade ago, Apple launched Mac OS X v10.0 "Cheetah" and, honestly, it kind of blew. Whereas it was a lot more stable than Classic (what wasn't?), Cheetah was slow, native software was non-existant and the still incomplete Aqua interface was so beautiful people skinned it.
See also: Kodiak: OS X was born a bear
Nevertheless, protected memory and real multitasking won the day. Moreover, OS X is still winning the day, with Mac unit volume growing by double digits every quarter and iOS, with its OS X heart, defines the smartphone and tablet segments.
So Happy Birthday, Mac OS X, and many happy returns to you and your fathers…

These often brightly coloured worms are common in shallow water and on coral reefs and can range in size from a few mm to several cm in length. Despite their beauty, these animals are known as 'fireworms', because a close encounter with them can result in excruciating pain or worse. Their hollow bristles are loaded with poison produced by glands at the base of each "foot" (or parapodium). While the bristles can easily penetrate even dive gloves, they also break off releasing poison to which some people are highly allergic. These animals are commonly seen cruising over the reef and have few predators. Fireworms are slow moving carnivores using their muscular eversible lower lip for rasping on sedentary animals such as sponges, anemones, hydroids and ascidians.
The taxonomy of this group is still very confused and many of the species have been reported as widespread, but as more detailed molecular and morphological studies are undertaken they are being shown to represent suites of cryptic species many of which are undescribed, each with very discrete restricted distributions.

WELCOME TO Kimo's Vegas ... The Player's Edge!
HOLLY MADISON donned a Swarovski-covered Playboy bunny costume to deal some 21 at the 50th anniversary of the Playboy Club at the Palms last week ... that's a big nanny nanny boo hoo to those who didn't think the reality star could count that high - hit me!
SEVEN OUT ... The ESPN Zone in Vegas! Disney execs announced the closing of five Zones, including Chicago, Baltimore, New York and Washington. Now if you wanna watch TV in a stall, you'll have to go to the L.A. or Anaheim restaurants.
THE SEASON is over, but you're still jonesing for more action? Check out the 2010 NBA Summer League. The first tipoff of the 58-game schedule happens July 9. In all, 22 teams will be in Sin City showcasing the league's best rookies and free agents this summer. Adult tickets cost $25 a day. Call 702-739-FANS to get yours.
THE SPORTS BOOKS in Vegas made Tiger Woods a 4-1 (bet a buck and, if Tiger wins, you get four) fave to win this year's U.S. Open. The odds, however, are diametrically opposed to the experts' predictions.
That's because both sides have different objectives - the experts wanna be right, but bookies are in it to make money. In a perfect world, an equal amount would be waged for and against Tiger winning and the books make their money by charging a vig (vigorish) on every bet made. The casino gave Wood's same odds at the Masters and Pebble Beach.
THERE'S STILL TIME to help "The Old Man," "Rick," "Big Hoss" and "Chum Lee" raise money for charity. In fact, 100 percent of the final sale price of every auction goes to the YMCA. Buy a DVD box set, T-shirt or bid on the Pawn Stars Vegas weekend ... it includes air, a room at the Palms, dinner and a poker game with the boys and a day with the gang at the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop. Search Pawn Stars on eBay for the details and latest bid - at press time it was $16,000!
IS THE MGM selling the Mirage? Bossman Jim Murren says nope, the change in letterhead to MGM Resorts International will better reflect the company's global presence. Ten years ago they changed the name to MGM Mirage to help employees of the newly acquired (Steve Wynn's) Mirage feel more secure with the merged company. The next time you're paying the mortgage, think about their $13 billion in debt ... Now that's what you call a big nut.
GRAZIE PLAYERS are getting offers to play in the club's $50,000 tournament July 16 and 17. Included in the offer is a room, two tickets to see a taping of Wheel of Fortune and a VIP reception to meet Vanna White. Didja know the Guinness Book of World Records said she was "Television's Most Frequent Clapper"? According to the keepers of records, the pop culture iconette claps an average of 720 times per show.
THE GAMING Control Board said that casinos in Nevada won $810.5 million in April ... Isn't that just a "politically correct" way of saying the players lost a lotta money?

The bloody scene that Alexander Duke left behind two weeks ago disturbed some who witnessed it and others who heard about it.
About the law
The S.C. Protection of Persons and Property Act authorizes the lawful use of deadly force under certain circumstances against an intruder or attacker.
Under the law, there is no duty to retreat if:
The person is in a place he has a right to be.
The person is not engaged in unlawful activity.
The use of deadly force is necessary to prevent death, great bodily injury or a violent crime.
A person who lawfully uses deadly force is immune from criminal prosecution and civil lawsuits, unless the person against whom deadly force was used is a police officer.
State Law Enforcement Division
He saw stabbing three people as the only option to defend himself. But others saw it as an overreaction.
Duke, 20, drove that day to a North Charleston home where his girlfriend was at a party. He didn't want the 15-year-old with strangers drinking alcohol.
But the people he encountered early on April 25 didn't want him there either. They worried that he might hurt the girl.
Duke and the teenager sat inside his Ford Explorer and talked. Their conversation became heated. People gathered outside. They banged on the windows, Duke said, and someone opened his door.
As they pulled him outside, Duke grabbed his knife. They kicked and punched him, he said. He got stabbed in the leg, probably by his own weapon.
Tall and lanky, Duke figured that he didn't stand a chance against the crowd. So he gripped the long kitchen knife and swung it. He jabbed it.
"They surrounded my car like vultures," he said. "I stood my ground, but they kept coming and coming."
His blade caught two of the men. It plunged into the chest of a third, 30-year-old Stewart Pelfrey. His wound was fatal.
With that account of self-defense, Duke has avoided arrest. For a law-abiding man who fears for his life, the S.C. Protection of Persons and Property Act would allow his use of deadly force.
But the death of Pelfrey, a doting father, poses another scenario in which the victim's family has questioned whether the "stand-your-ground" law should afford that level of immunity from prosecution to someone like Duke.
Pelfrey tried to defuse the confrontation after his guests went outside to shoo Duke away, loved ones said.
Kayley Parrish, 26, saw Duke stab her fiance as he attempted to break up the skirmish. She tried to breathe life back into Pelfrey, but he died outside the home where her children slept.
Detectives from the North Charleston Police Department have not closed their investigation, but at first blush, Duke's self-defense story appeared sound to them.
"They told me that my husband died because (Duke) thought he was going to hurt him," said Parrish, who had planned to marry Pelfrey. "I'm not going to accept that."
A bad feeling
The night before he died, Pelfrey spoke with his father.
The Lugoff resident knew his son was hosting a party at his mobile home on Deidrich Street. He knew his son's cousins would attend.
More than a decade earlier, Pelfrey had been arrested for property crimes. None of his offenses were violent, but his father worried that his guests could bring mischief.
"I just had this feeling, this parental instinct," Larry Pelfrey said. "I got off the phone and told my fiance that I hope nothing happens."
At first, the evening was fun for Stewart Pelfrey.
A dozen people ate banana pudding, cake and chips. They sang karaoke. Pelfrey could deliver an entertaining rendition of Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe."
But some of the guests brought drama to his home.
His cousin had invited two teenage girls. One complained about her boyfriend, Duke, but at some point, the other teenager called him for a ride.
Learning that his girlfriend was there upset Duke. He said he feared for her safety.
But in the past, Duke has found himself in trouble with authorities who said he tried to protect a runaway girl, also 15. In January, police officers showed up at his Winona Street home and asked about her.
Duke told the police that she wasn't there, their report stated. But she was.
He was jailed on a misdemeanor charge of interfering with the police - his only arrest in South Carolina.
When he arrived around 2:30 a.m. April 25 at the Dorchester Village Mobile Home Park, Duke parked his Ford across the street. His girlfriend later walked out.
The couple talked in his Ford, he said, as he kept his hands to himself. He later put the Ford in drive, but he said someone had stepped in front of it.
"I was trying to ignore the men surrounding my vehicle," he said. "At the first opportunity ... I was going to leave."
But they didn't get out of the way, he said.
Someone reached through an open window and unlocked his door. As a half-dozen men started pulling him out, Duke said, he snatched the knife between his seat and the armrest.
Most drivers in South Carolina must store their firearms in latched containers, such as a glove box. State law doesn't require the same for knives.
Duke had the knife, he said, because criminals were "always trying to hurt me or steal something from my car."
Still in gear, Duke's Ford lurched ahead and hit another car after the men yanked him out.
"At least three of them grabbed my shirt and threw me to the ground," the 6-foot, 130-pound man said. "They started beating me in the head, kicking me on the ground."
'He was mad'
To his loved ones, Pelfrey was a peacemaker during the ordeal.
While the argument between Duke and his girlfriend grew louder, they said, Pelfrey told his guests to go back inside.
"We were just trying to get the dude to leave," said Mike Linn, 20, of Goose Creek, one of Pelfrey's friends there. "He would not leave. He was mad."
Melvin Andrew Boggs, Pelfrey's cousin from Fort Lawn, confronted Duke. But the witnesses wouldn't say how the altercation became physical.
Parrish ran outside and saw Boggs being stabbed in Duke's Ford, she said. Andrew James Cumpston, 20, of Richburg was wounded as he tried to pull Duke off Boggs.
Boggs was stabbed 12 times, he later said on Facebook. He needed 37 staples. The knife once pierced his shoulder and stuck out the other side.
"My favorite cousin just died (saving) my life," Boggs, who couldn't be reached for further comment, wrote.
Pelfrey was grabbing his cousin in an attempt to free him, Parrish said, when the knife plunged into his heart.
That's when Duke yelled, "I'm going to kill you all," Parrish and other witnesses said. Duke recalled shouting something, but not those words.
"Baby, he stabbed me," Pelfrey said to Parrish. "I can't breathe."
Those were his last words. Parrish wrapped her arms around the man she called her husband, but he fell.
She kneeled next to him.
Duke wanted to help, he said, so he kneeled, too. But Parrish punched him in the face before she did CPR on Pelfrey.
"His eyes were wide open," Parrish said, "when he gasped one last time."
'In harm's way'?
Duke drove to his mother's house on Holbird Drive. He left the knife on his Ford's front passenger seat.
There, he realized that he had been cut on his left forearm, he said. When he found the stab wound in his right leg, he screamed. His mother cried.
Police officers soon showed up and handcuffed him.
"He was afraid," his mother said in a 911 call. "They're treating him like he did something wrong."
Paramedics bandaged his wounds, and detectives questioned him for 16 hours. But without evidence of a crime, they let him go.
No information uncovered since then has changed that, police spokesman Spencer Pryor said.
Ninth Circuit Solicitor Scarlett Wilson agreed with the detectives' approach to the homicide investigation.
The case shares a similarity to a shooting last year that killed three people at the Cycle Gear store on Dorchester Road.
Then, Summerville resident Ronald Reid said he happened upon a fight between members of his motorcycle club and two other bikers. One of the two bikers shot at the opposing group members in self-defense. When a bullet hit him, Reid fired his own pistol and killed the man.
A murder charge against Reid was later dismissed when a judge ruled that no evidence indicated that Reid was involved in the fight. Reid acted legally under the state's stand-your-ground law, the judge ruled, when he shot the gunman, who also had opened fire in self-defense.
Like Reid, loved ones said Pelfrey got involved in a scuffle he had not initiated.
Duke said, though, that Pelfrey "was more than likely" with the group that confronted him. Even if Pelfrey walked up later, Duke said he saw everyone around him as a threat.
Pelfrey's family has asked for advice from Charleston attorney Andy Savage, who represented Reid.
His mother, Jackie Pelfrey of North Augusta, tried to make sense of the law.
"If someone walks up to my car and asks for directions, but I feel I'm in harm's way and stab him," she said, "is that self-defense?"
She last talked with her son the day before he died. Already the proud dad of a girl and a father figure to Parrish's children, Pelfrey was counting the days until he was scheduled to learn the gender of the baby Parrish is pregnant with.
"It's a boy," Parrish said of the news that came four days after his death. "He always wanted a boy."
Every day, Parrish walks by a roadside memorial to Pelfrey. It features flowers and a cross with "I love you" and "Go Gamecocks" scribbled in marker. A sign pinned to the cross says, "Baby boy."
"He sat there and cried at every ultrasound," Parrish said as she cried. "After he died, I was praying it was a boy."
Emotions also overwhelmed Duke, a thin young man with long hair and watches and rings on his right hand.
"I feel terrible on the inside," he said.
He still sees himself as the victim of an assault, not the ruthless murder suspect as some have labeled him.
But some of his friends have abandoned him. People have threatened him online. The girlfriend at the center of the dispute that night broke up with him.
Duke thought about whether he would have handled it differently.
"Yeah," he said. "I'd lay there and die."

They were right on the money with a $.01 loss. That's what the Yahoo page has said all along. I see an article saying that it was a $.01 miss. In biotech, it really wouldn't matter much if it was off $.05 in either direction. You just have to be aware that people are crazy enough to trade that number as if it DID have meaning.Nice reminder that the $83M that they raised netted $83M on 10.9M shares, which is a net of $7.61 a share and as a stockholder, you don't have to worry about them needing more cash and diluting the stock anytime in the near future, if ever again.The Phase III endometiosis trial "screening subjects ..within the next few weeks". So, we won't have to wait until the end of the quarter to get more news on this. VMAT II "This data is now sufficient to support the planned long-term Phase II trial that we have been talking about." There is a yellow flag on Abbott maybe not having a signed SPA on the Phase III yet. The SPA is an agreement signed by the FDA stating that they agree that the clinical trial design is such that it should provide proper support or proper evidence of the drugs efficacy. I'm an administrator not a clinician, but I think my explanation is in the right ballpark. Anyway, why don't they have that yet? I am certain that it will be cleaned up, but you won't see this hitting nine bucks a share until they do. Also, we should get that update in two weeks! I'm happy with this quarter's progess. Go NBIX!
yupsimply fantastic
$6.50There was nothing positive to support a higher stock price in the short term.Gorman IMO, added more confusion than clarification. Q&A session was a classic kevy.

Arbitration Ambush in a Policy Polemic
Amy Schmitz
University of Missouri School of Law
October 5, 2011
Penn State Yearbook on Arbitration and Mediation, Vol. 3, p. 52, 2011
U of Colorado Law Legal Studies Research Paper No. 11-15
Arbitration has been demonized in the media and consumer protection debates, often without empirical support or consideration of its attributes. This has led to renewed efforts to pass the Arbitration Fairness Action, which would bar enforcement of pre-dispute arbitration clauses in consumer, employment, and civil rights contexts. It also inspired Dodd-Frank's preclusion of arbitration clauses in mortgage contracts, along with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's charge to prohibit or limit enforcement of pre-dispute arbitration agreements in consumer financial products and services contracts. Some of this negativity toward arbitration is warranted, especially in the wake of the United Supreme Court's recent holdings highlighting a pro-business stance enforcement of arbitration agreements. Nonetheless, this does not necessarily justify abolishment of consumer arbitration. Accordingly, this Article suggest a more reasoned approach, and offers suggestions for carefully considered reforms that protect consumers without overly impeding beneficial use of arbitration. Litigation is not always the answer. Instead, it is time to rescue and revive arbitration from ambush.

First off you should be doing neck and jaw exercises like where you do a back bend and with your forehead on the ground and rock back and fort or putting pressure on your chin with your hand and trying to open your mouth.
Also you should be taking 100% of the recommended amount of calcium and vitamin d
Step 1: punch yourself (bare knuckle)
Hold your head steady with one hand on your left jaw and the other punching the right. at first hit lightly then after a week or so try harder and harder. This will accustom your jaw to getting hit. try hitting all along your jaw line and your cheek bones too.
Step 2: Punch yourself (bare knuckle or gloved)
Dont hold your head steady and just concentrate on using your neck to hold your head steady
Step 3: let other people punch you (gloved)
spar people but while sparing work on getting hit in the face and not loosing concentration i like getting pummeled and in the midsts of it just slowly reach out and lightly hit my opponent through any opening sure dose stop the flurry of punches and surprise the other person. but for that to work you cant fear being punched... the above should condition you to have no reason to fear being punched though

just because you exercise and know how to rock climb dosent mean your good at it, you have to rock climb and condition your hands with callisus. just because your strong and you know how to break a board dosent mean you can, you have to condition your hands by breaking boards.
there are 3 diffrent parts to conditioning 1. bone 2. nerves 3. muscle
Bone has all these little tiny holes and pores and when stress is placed on them the weak areas of the bone will start to break first instead of the whole bone breaking. all these little tiny stress breaks get rebuilt and become stronger and the strong areas are now the weak areas and your bones keep leveling up. This can take many years to actually build up to the point where you can do some crazy stuff. if you look at those brothers that wreck stuff with there body they are at that point in bone conditioning.
Nerves just get used to the pain so you body dosent automatically react involuentary to the hit instead its no diffrent then a touch over time. With out being damaged the nerves will become just as sensative as they were they arnt dieing
Muscles are the most important part of the 3 for they can make the most diffrence lets say you put a peice of meat in a sandwich bag and punched it what would happen. id mess up the meat and the bag. Well your muscles basically are wrapped in a sandwich bag and this layer distributes the pressure over the whole muscle now if you have a sandwich bag its not going to take much to break the sandwich bag and get a bruise and every hit after that to the same spot is just going to be more and more draining and painful. with the impact and slight damaging of the muscles the outer casing gets thicker and tougher almost turning from a sandwich bag to a leather pouch.
getting hit with bare knuckle will damage the muscles, nerves, and send stress through the bones because its solid to solid and your jaw is adsorbing the force but if you hit your self with gloves the padding is adsorbing the force and you are more likely to just knock yourself out then do any thing to your face that might cause it to get stronger. though when you have everything built up some what getting hit in the face with a glove is one of the better ways to strengthen the neck
Sure you can just spar and get hit alot and strengthen your jaw and neck and be able to take hits but it will never compare to a jaw forged through repeated bare knuckle strikes. Im sure mentally you can take a hit really well but can you mentally stop the bruseing?

Harmony Day 2013 – How we celebrated at SDEPS!
Here at SDEPS we celebrated Harmony Day on Wednesday 20 March 2013 with an International Morning Tea – staff members were asked to bring in a plate of culture inspired food, it was a great morning and really reminded the school of Multicultural Australia. We had the iPads out and explored the interactive Harmony Day App – which was alot of fun! We also got into the theme and all wore a touch of orange! Have a look at the photos below!
Every year on March the 21st, Australia celebrates a day of cultural diversity. Known as Harmony Day, it coincides with the United Nations International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. In 2013 the theme is Many Stories – One Australia. Australia has set aside a day since 1999 to recognize and celebrate the country's cultural diversity with a series of events. Harmony Day focuses on sharing aspects of the various cultures, faiths and languages that make up the nation.
At SDEPS we have students all over Australia and the world! Have a look at the map below to see just where our students are this term.

Do you think your friend would like to know that DDS has this item? Just fill in the following information and we will let them know!
I ordered these as my first pair of toe pads, and thought I would really like them. ( I also thought the "breathable" holes were pretty awesome) So I got them in the mail and the first time I put them on one ripped right in half.. so I didn't even get a chance to wear them with pointe shoes :( Turns out those "breathable" holes aren't that great after all.. As a fellow ballerina I WOULD NOT recommend these to a friend, or anyone for that matter. To be honest, I'd give these 0 stars if I could. My first pair of pointe shoes were by Sansha too, and they seemed a bit "cheap", let's just say Sansha isn't my favorite brand.. But if you're trying to find some great toe pads, I would highly recommend ToeSavers Skinny Dips, I got them as my second pair about a year ago, and still have them in great condition!
Was this review helpful to you? YES (
I had ouch pouches before these and I thought i liked them till I got these! I am so glad i got these you feel the floor great and they stretch to your foot. I have never had any problem with it sliding but if it does you can just put some baby powder in it! I had these for about three months they did break but I pulled them too hard putting them on so just be careful with that but I'm defiantly purchasing them again!
This was my first toe pads and at first, they were great. Then my feet slid in them and in about my fourth week, they split, and left my fourth toe unprotected and gave me a HUGE blister. So, they aren't my favorite toe pads.
These toe pads were wonderful when I first put them on. They were extremely comfortable and I was really able to feel the floor. However, as my class progressed they were sweaty and slipping around my foot, leaving the sides of my toes exposed. I tried taping them to my foot, wearing them inside out, putting them over and under my tights, but they still bunched up and slipped around. Very disappointing because they felt perfect.
I really like these. They are just right. I normally only wear cut socks in my shoes, but now I have longer classes. These are not thick at all but provide a lot of comfort! Love them.
I didn't buy these from Discount Dance but let me tell you - these toe pads are GREAT!!! :) They are just the right thickness and don't feel sticky or bulky in the shoe at all... the air holes really help to increase air circulation I think. Used to really hate all gel-only toe pads but these were awesome. Cheap n good.

Scholarship: Money given to a student for good grades, sports or having a special talent. YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY THIS MONEY BACK.
Loan: Money that a student or parent borrows for college. The student MUST PAY THIS MONEY BACK when they are finished with college.
Grant: Money given by the government for students who are not able to pay for college. YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY THIS MONEY BACK.
Financial Aid Office: Every college or university has a financial aid office that can help you answer questions on getting money for college!
