Kutcher was one of the first to arrive at the official after party, hosted by Nur Khan Presents NK on Main Street for the cast and filmmakers and sponsored by Red Touch Media.
Kutcher was captivated by a floor-to-ceiling portrait of late Apple visionary Steve Jobs, whom Kutcher portrays in the film. Guests were quick to snap a photo of the actor admiring the subject of his role.
Without Kunis by his side, Kutcher very much remained a one-man guy, focusing his attention all night on his table of male friends and colleagues and posing for pictures with fans, according to an observer. The pride he takes in jOBS was palpable, as Kutcher was incredibly excited to chat about his film and role with all the guests who came up to greet him.
Costar Ahna O'Reilly spent the evening in a very social mood, dancing to the beats of DJ Cash and catching up with co-star Josh Gad. Not to live down his "funny man" persona, Gad went into the evening entertaining all the guests and causing an uproar of laughter with Kutcher and O'Reilly while catching up about filming and their time at Sundance.

Announcement coming in April?
Read More: Google translated link
CR's Take
It's a wishlist lens for sure with a lot of people. With the things going on with Canon's ability to make the new lenses, I have doubts about any announcement in April for glass.
thanks jimmy
You would expect the prime lens would produce sharper pictures when compared with the 100-400mm at 400mm at f5.6. In addition, it should have faster focus and better IQ. This is pretty important when tracking subjects. Admittedly, the 100-400 isn't considered slack in these areas, but most reviews suggest that you need to stop down to f8 or f11 to achieve really sharp results. The current 400/2.8 is considered one of the stars in the canon line up. If a 400/5.6 exists, it would be good to think the image quality would be comparable, but in a slower package. It may not appeal to everyone, but I think there would be buyers out there.
The *ONLY* white zoom lens that does not have IS is the EF-400/5.6L USM.
Can someone please explain to me what the attraction of this lens is? I look at the 70 - 200mm f/2.8 IS L (£1750) and the 200mm f/2.8 L (£615) and I can see why someone would buy but when that is upscaled to 400mm we have the 100 - 400mm f/4.5 - 5.6 IS L (£1100) compared to the current 400mm f/5.6 L (£1065) there's no saving at all and no IS, there's no gain in speed and you lose the zoom option, even if IS is added and an optical upgrade the price will rise far above its current level probably closer to £1500, what is the attraction in that?
If they can get a 500mm f/5.6 IS under 5lbs and 3K, I would consider that a winner.

Whether you think of it as Halligan's Ultimate Gadget or High Utility Gear, never turn down a little H.U.G.
Ed's latest two-piece design Halligan's Ultimate Gadget (H.U.G.) because it is virtually as small, simple and lightweight as the K.I.S.S., but so much more sophisticated and versatile.
Like the K.I.S.S., the H.U.G. is a Frame Lock folder with a single-sided blade. However, Ed has refined almost every aspect.
The 2.30" blade is now a modified spear point with a single-side grind which seals against the frame. It is more useful for the type of pen knife tasks most users will give the knife.
The frame, also bead-blast high-carbon stainless steel, now uses an ingenious internal Frame Lock. A single Zytel scale makes the handle fit the hand better, and also helps prevent the blade from accidental opening. A finger choil on the bottom of the frame and friction grooves at the thumb area make for a more secure grip, and give more comfort during extended use.
A compact custom stainless steel pocket/money clip makes this a handy and useful personal carry in all situations.
Developed by Chris Reeve, it functions like a liner lock but the lock is comprised of one of the handle scales. It's an extremely strong and easy to manipulate lock.
Includes a pocket clip for easy accessibility and a more secure carry.
A nylon polymer that is lightweight and extremely durable, Zytel can be shaped and textured to provide excellent grip.

The Motlow Bucks and Lady Bucks will open the 2012-13 basketball season when they travel to Dayton, Tenn., to face the Bryan College JV teams on Friday, Nov. 2. Tipoff is scheduled for 5 p.m. central time.
The first home contest and the Tennessee Community College Athletic Association (TCCAA) opener will come a week later, with Columbia State scheduled to visit Copperweld Arena on Friday, Nov. 9. The women are set for a 6 p.m. start and the men will follow at 8 p.m. There is no admission charge to Motlow regular season athletic contests.
Bucks head coach Jerry Nichols enters his fourth season with perhaps his most talented lineup. His squads have been on the brink of winning the conference tournament, finishing as runner-up the past two seasons. Last season ended with a heartbreaking 59-56 loss to Columbia State in the finals as Motlow finished with a 17-11 overall record.
The Lady Bucks are in their first season under new head coach Aaron Holland, who has four returning sophomores and a promising group of freshmen on his roster. Nichols was the interim head coach last season, leading the Lady Bucks to an 11-13 overall record.
The regular season will end on Feb. 23, 2013 with a trip to Jackson State. The TCCAA Tournament will be held at Copperweld Arena beginning Mar. 5, with the men's and women's championship games scheduled for Saturday, Mar. 9.
A meet the Bucks event was held at First Vision Bank in Tullahoma yesterday with several people from the community attending.

Three legitimate football thoughts heading into the weekend and one that's just out there...
A quick three and out this week because frankly, all three of these games should be over...well...QUICK.
#1 - State's in a snoozer. I hope Northern Colorado enjoys their trip to East Lansing, and the check that MSU is going to cut them, because that will be the only enjoyable part of the weekend. State actually has "win one for the Gipper" motivation in an otherwise meaningless game. Ouch. Sacrificial Bears 13, Sparty Sirens 42.
#2 - Michigan won't have a repeat "performance". Goodness, Michigan's defense looked BAD against UMass, but in all honesty, I think UMass could beat Bowling Green. Also, no one likes an embarrassing win, so Michigan should be motivated to take control early and deliver a kill shot. BG doesn't have their starting QB either, so unless the Wolverines start turning the ball over like crazy, they'll roll. Bowl'ed Over 20, Run Denard Run 48.
#3 - The Lions venture the Great Vike North. Last time Detroit won in Minny, it was 1997. This year isn't going to be any different from the previous twelve. Of course, the eternal optimist in me says, "but Terp, the Vikes look vulnerable! Brett Favre is stinking it up! We only have to stop Adrian Peterson...oh, wait, crap, they still have A.P." Look, can the Lions win this game? Sure they CAN. But will they? No way. If they do, watch as the Metrodome comes crashing down as its foundation is destroyed by all the Vikings fans' heads exploding. Take the entertainment-purposes-only points if you want, but Detroit loses this game. Wait Till Next Year 23, Favre Havin' Fun 31.
Out: This is a serious video. Brock Mealer is an inspiration to me and a lot people, not just Michigan fans. Also a very well-done piece by the Big 10 Network. Please enjoy:

HER BACK PRESSED against the wall, Dagma Rodriguez stood in a dark bedroom as Officer Thomas Tolstoy moved closer. She trembled in fear.
It was just after 5 p.m. on April 3, 2008, during a drug raid on the West Kensington rowhouse where she lived. Tolstoy had ordered her into the room, telling her that he needed to talk, she said.
"He started rubbing my breasts, rubbing my nipples," said Rodriguez, a 33-year-old mother of three. "I was so scared. My legs wouldn't stop shaking."
Rodriguez said she grabbed Tolstoy's wrists to try to make him stop. He didn't, she said.

LOCK HAVEN - While many portions of eastern Pennsylvania are still dealing with the after-effects from last week's devastating floods from Tropical Storm Lee, this area was, thankfully, spared.
Now, Clinton County residents and businesses are coming together and helping those in need.
The American Legion Post 131, 20 S. Grove St., Lock Haven, has been accepting clothing, non-perishables, dry goods and cleaning supplies to help flood victims in the hardest-hit areas since last Saturday. The collection will continue until Oct. 22, from 1 to 9 p.m. each day.

From left, Jason Risbon, Doris Schenck, Joy Bowmaster, Boyd Bowmaster and Floyd Bowmaster stand behind many of the collected cleaning supplies.
Shirley Lyons and Kathy Baldwin sort through the donated clothing.
And, the response from the public has been overwhelming, already filling up the dance-floor area of the facility with items on more than a dozen tables ready to be packed and delivered.
"We're accepting anything from cleaning supplies to clean clothes for kids to adults... anything they need," said Doris Schenck, president of ALA Unit 131. "We would like to thank all of the community who have helped us, from donating items to help packing stuff up."
She noted the Post will also pick up items from those who cannot get to the building. Call the American Legion at 748-7414 for pick-up.
The Post was buzzing Thursday afternoon with volunteers packing items as quickly as they were coming in the back door.
"You name it, we got it," Schenck said.
One large delivery came from David Miller of Tylersville, who donated several boxes of already-sorted clothing from his house.
"Everybody helped when I donated my kidney for my son (David K. Miller). This is the least we can do for them," he said. "This is something that had to be done.
"I have six shirts in my closet. That's enough. These guys (in the flood) have nothing in their closets.
Tom Johnson, vice commander of the post, said the items will be delivered to the hardest-hit areas about once a week, with the inaugural run going to Our Lady of Lourdes Church in Montoursville, Saturday at 10 a.m.
"We're going to take down trucks and trailers and if anyone wants to donate a truck, they can meet us here at 10 a.m. Saturday," Johnson said.
The shipment will be large, including several cases of water and paper towels from First Quality Enterprises and cleaning supplies from Weis Markets. Lee Miller from Miller's Small Engine Repair in Lock Haven has also donated trailers to help transport the items.
"We'd like to say thanks for all the support we've had," said Schenck. "We've had a lot of support from the community."
Johnson added people who know of a particularly hard-hit area can call the Post at 748-7414 for assistance.
Monetary donations are also being accepted at Jersey Shore State Bank's Lock Haven branch, downtown Main Street, payable to "American Legion Post 131 Flood Victims Fund."
For more information, call 748-7414.

My Ruger Mark II, which I'm otherwise highly satisfied with, has a problem where the windage will shift on the adjustible sights after a few mags worth of firing. Anyone have any idea on how to fix this?

Is it the blade moving or the whole sight in the dovetail? Have you checked the screw that keeps the sight tight in the dovetail? (located next to the elevation adjustment screw)
April 14, 2003, 02:50 PM
The screw on the front sight of my Ruger shoots loose every few hundred rounds. I usually just shoot w/ a screw driverclose by & tighten it up after every box.
Self adjusting rear sight would be a true inconvenience! Maybe a little lock tight or maybe replace the sight all together
April 14, 2003, 05:26 PM
If the front sight is loose, loctite the screw.
As I recall, the rear sight blade is drifted by loosening the tiny screw on one side and tightening the screw on the other. Make sure all is snug.

April 14, 2003, 08:07 PM
It is the blade that is shifting, not the sight itself. I'll give a try to tighten the screw on the other side.
April 14, 2003, 08:52 PM
It took about 4 outings for me to conclude that both the front and rear sights on my 22/45 were garbage. Got a reddot, and don't miss 'em.

Quality Education in the Benedictine Tradition
Saint Vincent gave me the opportunity to meet some truly wonderful people – both during my time there as a student and after.
Office of Graduate and Continuing Education724-805-2933
School of Social Sciences, Communication, & Education
The Saint Vincent College Master of Science Degree in School Administration and Supervision offers veteran educators a degree program to obtain Pennsylvania certification as a K-12 principal. The 39-credit hour graduate degree requires students to have five years of documented teaching experience. However, students can enroll in the same courses required for the Master of Science in Curriculum and Instruction, thereby allowing them to work toward a degree while completing the required five years of teaching. Students can transfer to the School Administration and Supervision degree program from the Curriculum and Instruction degree or add the needed K-12 principal courses to become certified. The program is designed with the school administrator in mind; therefore, most courses address current issues, techniques, and information for school principals. The School Administration and Supervision Master's degree provides excellent training and experiences in current methods, trends and strategies to enable the candidate to become an effective school leader and administrator. The program offers resources, professional contacts and tools that will enable a pre-service school administrator to become successful and effective in leading a school building or district. In addition, candidates will explore current philosophies, assessment, reporting, community collaboration, creative practices and proactive leadership trends that can develop a strong community and student rapport and support.
The three goals of the Master of Science Degree in School Administration and Supervision are:
• To provide excellent training and experiences in current methods, trends, and strategies for becoming an effective school leader and administrator.
• To offer resources, professional contacts, and tools that will enable a pre-service school administrator to become successful and effective in leading a school building or district.
• To provide insight into current philosophies, assessment reporting, community collaboration, creative practices, and proactive leadership trends that can develop a strong community and student rapport and support. Program Prerequisites Candidates are to have completed and documented five or more years of professional training.
Courses Required for Master's in School Administration and Supervision (39 credits):
GCED 600 Educational Leadership and Professional Development - 3 creditsGCED 605 Statistics and Research Design - 3 creditsGCED 610 Current Issues and Trends - 3 creditsGCED 615 Curriculum and Systems Design - 3 creditsGCED 620 Assessment and Diagnostics - 3 creditsGCED 630 Managing Financial and Material Resources - 3 creditsGCED 645 Philosophical and Ethical Perspectives in Education - 3 creditsGCED 655 Educational Jurisprudence - 3 creditsGCED 675 Inclusionary Education - 3 creditsGCED 680 Supervision of Instruction - 3 creditsGCSE 607 Family and Professional Collaboration - 3 creditsGCSE 697 Teaching Culturally Diverse Students with Limited English Proficiencies - 3 creditsGCAD 676 Internship in School Administration: Fall Term - 1 creditGCAD 686 Internship in School Administration: Spring Term - 1 creditGCAD 696 Internship in School Administration: Summer Term - 1 credit
Course Descriptions
Sequence and ScheduleThe School Administration and Supervision master's degree is designed to be an accelerated 39-credit hours that can be completed in approximately 20 months. The courses are held year around in accelerated 7-week sessions offered one night per week between the hours of 6 and 10PM and one Saturday per course. Each full semester has two accelerated 7-week sessions. Thus, students can take two courses a term driving to campus one evening per week. At the close of the coursework, students will take a comprehensive exam which is offered each term, thus enabling students to graduate year around. An additional final competency evaluation is required along with a portfolio of experiences and resources illustrating a student's proficiency in school administration.
Regular Admission Possess an earned Bachelor's degree from an accredited institution. Official transcripts must be submitted from each institution attended to the Office of Graduate & Continuing Education.
Provisional Acceptance
If a student does not meet the above requirements for regular admission to the graduate programs in education, consideration will be given for acceptance on a provisional basis. The student will be required to maintain a 3.75 GPA over the course of completing three graduate classes. If the student is able to maintain a 3.75 grade point average he/she will be reviewed for regular admission. A student within this status will not be allowed to take more than 9 credits of graduate coursework. If the student is not able to maintain a 3.75 GPA after completing 9 credits of graduate coursework, regular admission will be denied. The provisional acceptance will still allow a student to qualify for financial aid if needed.
Graduate Non-Degree Status If a student does not want acceptance to a graduate program but would like to register for graduate classes the student may apply as a graduate non-degree seeking student. This allows the student to register for up to 9 graduate credits without applying or being accepted to a program. In order to register under this status a student must complete the graduate non-degree application and submit official transcripts to the Office of Graduate & Continuing Education. Once this information is received the student will be contacted regarding registration for classes. A student within this status is not eligible for financial aid.
**The Graduate Non-Degree Status also serves the student who decides to apply to a program right before the semester begins without ample time to complete the application. The student can begin taking classes as a Graduate Non-Degree student while completing the application for admission.**

You can wear blue jeans. You can wear BDU pants. You can wear shorts. If you really want to you can wear a kilt. We hear it all the time—"you don't need paintball-specific pants!"—and "real men don't need padding."
I'm not the first person to say that the padding really makes a difference. Unless you are a masochist who enjoys getting shot where the sun doesn't shine, a quality pair of paintball pants will really help you step up your game and improve the quality of your paintball experience.
The best paintball pants are durable and they stand up to years of abuse. Most paintball-specific pants breathe well and include special ventilated areas that a pair of BDU pant's don't have. The padding takes away more than the pain of getting hit. Sometimes, padding can cushion impact enough to prevent paint breakage—keeping you in the game longer.
If you're on a budget, the Valken Fate II should be acceptable. They include improved knee-area durability and a breathable polyester construction that will keep you comfortable on the field. At under $50.00 they aren't that much more expensive than a decent pair of street pants.
To get the best pants, you have to shell out some money.
My personal favorite are the HK Army Hardline Propant 2014. You can check out the product video straight from HK Army on YouTube:
HK thought of everything when they designed the 2014 Hardline. They are durable enough to stand up to the toughest conditions, breathable in all the right places, and filled with little features that will improve game play and experience.
The Hardline ProPants are double stitched everywhere and exceptional durable in the knee area. The front and rear are reinforced to handle the load of a harness. On the back, the location of the HK logo is exceptionally firm—it helps hold up a heavy harness and keep your load stable.
There are elastic straps on the waist and Velcro straps on the ankles. You'll find belt loops, but with the adjustable elastic it is unlikely that you will need them. The zipper is sturdy and there is a dual button at the top opening for additional reinforcement.
HK advertises a total of six pockets. There are two deep front zipper pockets that are lined with an easy to clean liner, two sets of front pockets (one of the pockets is pretty small and doesn't fit much), and rear squeegee holders.
Breathability is exceptional. The 2014 Hardline ProPants have a mesh liner that helps keep you cool and a ventilation system that extends down the inseam and behind the knee. The stretchable vent material extends to the front of the knee to provide increased movement—something that few pants do. This is perfect if you plan on wearing knee pads.
Overall, the HK Army Hardline ProPant is a good buy. I personally preferred the 2013 colors, but the 2014 model adds increased functionality that was lacking in last year's model. Breathability is improved and the front pockets are actually functional.
Improve your game and have more fun getting hit with paint by ordering some paintball pants now. Yes, we'll make some money off the deal but we promise to use it for tacos and beer. Like us on Facebook and subscribe on YouTube to stay in touch and hear about our latest antics.

I have to say, Stephanie, we are united in our souls in this. I've been peeling back stuff, cutting away spending, and just doing it myself. And as you feel, "this is right for you," I feel, "I was made for this."

I wish there were words to say how much I relate to you in this. As my children play in clothes they were wearing last spring, as the gray pops from the brown every day (you've seen the pictures, you know I don't mind sharing), as the Make Do replaces Must Have.

Of course, we should be mindful of our attitudes to possessions for other reasons, and I really struggle to remember that.

But after the fact, it's liberating. You realize you don't HAVE to have things and you make do with what you have. And making do is just fine.

We didn't go school clothes shopping either - there was no need. And if you can get to a place where you distinguish want from need, I think you're way ahead in the game.

We have VHS players too, do you know just how many good classics people give away because they don't own a VHS player!?!

It helps me feel like we're...I love this post. It helps me feel like we're in this together. After growing up in a home where we stopped looking at price tags and going out to eat stopped being a treat and became an every day thing, getting married to a downwardly mobile mountain man put an abrupt (and rather painful) halt to my way of doing life. But it turned out to be really good for me - even when it's 6 p.m. and I still don't have a clue what to do for dinner and would like to just run down the hill to order something. Slowly, I'm learning how to simplify, how to declutter, how to grow in contentment and not be in "buy" mode every time I turn on the computer or step out of the house. People around us think we're a little crazy and missing out. BUt it turns out that we're pretty happy after all.....even when I haven't bought new make-up in over a year or had anyone do my hair in longer than that. Who knew? I'm glad to know we're not alone in this pursuit.

The funny thing is that we went to the Vancouver Aquarium the other day as a family. My folks got us passes to celebrate me finally doing the paperwork to get dual citizenship for our little guy. So we planned to treat ourselves to their cafe instead of taking a picnic. And you know what? Next time we are totally making a picnic made from my kitchen. It's way better. Now if I can just remember that on days when my creativity fails me in the kitchen......=)

What if enough of us started to do this and life slowed down everywhere and people valued the simple and homemade and natural? Wouldn't that be amazing?!Inklinghttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-20266288.post-57593461527224203782010-08-30T15:06:16.622-07:002010-08-30T15:06:16.622-07:00I always read from googlereader and never click ov...I always read from googlereader and never click over to comment.

Marc Eric Terenzi (born June 27, 1978) is an American pop singer formerly of the boy band Natural. He was married to German pop/soul singer Sarah Connor from 2005-2008. They have a son named Tyler and a daughter named Summer.
Early life[edit]
Terenzi was born in Natick, Massachusetts to Italian-American parents Peter and Antoinette.[1] At the age of 3 his grandmother began training him at her dance studio. At the age of 7 he learned how to play piano at his mother's church by teaching himself. He also learned to play guitar himself after his father gave him a guitar for Christmas. At the age of 12 he began to act and host a Boston-based TV show called 'Studio A.T.V.'.[1] Terenzi moved to Florida with a friend named Damion with very little funds.[2]
After arriving in Florida Terenzi took on various jobs including a stint as a bouncer at the House of Blues in Orlando.
Terenzi eventually befriended an actor named Ben Bledsoe. In 1999 the pair soon teamed up with Michael Johnson, Patrick King, and later Josh Horn to form the boy band Natural.[3]
The band created a buzz in the Orlando area eventually attracting attention from boy band mogul Lou Pearlman. Signed with Transcontinental Records they released their first single "Put Your Arms Around Me" in 2001. The single peaked at #12 in the German charts.[3]
With American success lacking the group continued to release in Germany. Their debut album "Keep it Natural" peaked at #2 in the German charts. By 2004 they had released 2 albums and 9 singles.
In 2002 Terenzi met German pop singer Sarah Connor.[4] The couple began a relationship covertly despite Pearlman's wishes. Pearlman had rules for his boy bands: "No facial hair, no girlfriends, and no drinking in public."[5] In 2004, Connor became pregnant and the couple was soon engaged. No longer able to keep the relationship secret, Pearlman wanted to replace Terenzi in the band. However, the other members refused and Natural disbanded after their final tour in 2004.
Solo career[edit]
Terenzi originally intended to form a new band after Natural, named 'Jaded Rose'. However he and the other members had creative differences and his solo career was put on hold until 2005. Together with Connor he participated in a one off reality show for German TV. The series was called 'Sarah and Marc in Love' and followed their private lives, planning their wedding, and the recording of both their albums.
Terenzi's first solo single was titled 'Heat Between the Sheets' which reached the #40 in the German charts. His follow-up single 'Love to be loved by you' peaked at #3 on the German charts. The single was a song he played at the wedding ceremony, and thus had a huge audience. It became his signature song.
Terenzi released another single, 'Can't breathe without you' as well as an album titled 'Awesome' which peaked at #8. To support the album he embarked on a tour of the same name during 2006.
After the tour Terenzi released a new single, "You complete my soul" on October 6, 2006. It debuted at #35 on the German charts. Despite this second album has yet to be released.
In 2007, after almost two years without an album release Terenzi left a note for his fans indicating he was still pursuing a musical career, "I know it has been along [sic] time since you have heard something new from me. Its only because I have been searching for a while to find out who I really am. Just because you have not heard anything from me recently does not mean that I have stopped working. There is still a lot to come."
2008: Terenzi[edit]
On May 7, 2008 Terenzi announced via his official myspace that he had formed a new band, "It is true that I am forming a new band. A project that is more edgy and modern. We plan on taking the new music to a whole new level. music that both my old fans and new fans will like, that is why I will form a new band. We don't know what the name of the project should be but if you have any Ideas let us know. you never know maybe we pick a name you give us. The members that will always be a part of this new band are Myself, Benny Richter and Michael Johnson (Natural). We are bringing a whole lot more edge to our music and are busy working in the studio right now. We have really big plans for this year so get ready for a crazy journey."
On May 21 it was announced Terenzi and his wife would participate in an 8 part reality show titled, Sarah and Marc: Crazy in Love" on ProSieben in Germany. The special began airing on July 3, 2008. The documentary follows Connor's comeback as well as the formation of Terenzi's new band, his work on 'Terenzi Horror Nights', and the work on his new album.[6][7]
In June 2008 it was announced Terenzi's new group had been formed under the name 'Terenzi'. 'Terenzi' consisted of Michael Johnson, Benny Richter, Kai Stuffel and Christian Adameit.[8] For their first single the group covered Michael Jackson's Billie Jean in a much slower arrangement. "Billie Jean" was scheduled to be released on August 8, 2008.[9] An album titled "Black Roses" was set to be released August 28, 2008.[10]
Non-musical works[edit]
In 2001, while still in Natural, Terenzi provided the singing voice for US version of The Simpsons character Nelson in the episode 'Party Posse'.
While on musical break Terenzi was a member of Team Napster in Stefan Raabs Stock-Car-Challenge at the AufSchalke Arena.
In 2007 Terenzi announced he would be working on a project called "Terenzi Horror Nights" which took place every weekend in October at Europa-Park in Rust, Germany.[11] The idea was to bring the American idea of Halloween to Germany. Marc's band performed as well. Terenzi Horror Nights was slated make a return in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012.
Private life[edit]
Terenzi's first child, Tyler Marc Terenzi, was born on February 2, 2004.[12] Terenzi and Connor married the same month.[4] The couple later had a vow renewal in July 2005 as part of their reality show Sarah and Marc in Love.
Connor gave birth to the couple's second child, Summer Antonia Soraya, on June 23, 2006. Summer was born with a heart defect, although surgery later corrected this.
In November 2008 the couple announced their separation to the Bild tabloid newspaper.

Seeing as we all know what has been going down so far in the Spanish capital, I wanted to see people's opinions on how good Madrid's chances of answering the biggest questions they face.
This analysis will be made on the assumption that the rumors of players entering and leaving Madrid are true.
1) Can Madrid win the Champion's League?
2) Will they get a trophy treble this upcoming season?
3) Can a star-studded team work together in Madrid?
4) How will all their pieces fit?
Personally, Madrid, as they currently stand, have to iron out some big issues to meet their targets. Money is definitely not one of them but, more importantly the squad. First of all, what kind of formation will Pelligrini use to accommodate the expanded team? If the rumors are to be trusted, which have so far been right, ribery, raul albiol, xabi alonso, david villa, david silva, and maybe a few other players will come in. How will they accommodate this squad on the pitch? Maybe the best option will be a 4-5-1.
Sergio Ramos----Pepe----Raul Albiol----Marcelo
----------------Kaka-------David Silva--------------------
C. Ronaldo--------------------------------Ribery--------
----------------------David Villa----------------------------
This is really an amazing starting 11 however, I don't feel that this quite enough to win them all the silverware this season. Let me explain. Madrid has too many attackers on limited slots. They have Raul, Van Nistelrooy, Higuain, and Huntelaar to fill a single striker role. Although Raul and Higuain can fill as AMC's instead, they have to fight with Sneijder and Van der Vaart for a spot.
The wingers are problems as well. Ribery and Ronaldo would be brutally effective but, their is no one on the bench that can come on and fill their niche roles. With Robben gone(transfer assumption), Drenthe is the only real altrenative and one person to fill two spots is too big a gap. Maybe Madrid will opt for tactics changes to overcome this but, this will affect team play as they have to continually adjust to the constant changes.
On the matter of the center midfield, I think Real has problems to sort out as well. The center for that formation is basically attack minded. However on the Real bench, Gago and Diarra are defensive or holding type midfielders. Meaning tactical changes due to substitution. Having Ruben Dela Red and Sneijder play in the center will also just create more infighting for spots.
Real's biggest problem will probably be on the back line. This is the weakest part of the Madrid line up and conceded 54 goals last season. Far too much. They have too many CB's who aren't really versatile and would compete for just 2 spots. Cannavaro is still a good choice even with age, Metzelder probably won't relish the fact that he has to compete more for a spot, Pepe is becoming a liability in the back line in crucnch moments and Adding Raul Albiol as a starter means decreased experience. Again these four have to compete to create a rock solid back. Another problem for the back line is that only three options naturally fill the full back spot. Marcelo, Sergio Ramos and Miguel Torres. (Heinze is more of left and central defense and so I consider him a multi-role.) I don't think three options for one whole season is adequate especially since Madrid have CL matches.
Bashing aside, I still think that Real have a lot of good points. First of all they have young, developing, talented squad who can flourish into a force in Europe. They have Ronaldo, Gago, Diarra, Ramos, Marcelo, Higuain, Sneijder, and possibly David Silva and Raul Albiol.
To conclude these are only predictions and as such can't really foretell the future. Also I remind everyone that these are my personal opinions and if you believe other alternatives can happen, please do share.

whoaaaaaaaaa!!! hold on a sec there, Ronaldo hasn't signed yet. I still have hope, rather naive but hope none the less, that the deal will fall through. btw Madrid have three DCs because Cannavaro has signed for Juve.
Madrid will look great when their dominating games but unless they sign some defenders when they come up against team who can really defend and keep games tight like Chelsea and Liverpool (and too a lesser extent Man Utd) then they are going to struggle and as the English teams domination of the Champions League shows no signs of abating i just don't see them winning it. But as Queiroz was told "centre backs don't sell shirts"
People might be like this niggas conceited, but fuck it. I feel like I shine.

Good quote there, but I think that Madrid will need to gel for a bit, until they start doing major things, overall they will not be as effective until a couple of years time, when they find a good comination of players.
and ribery probably won't go to Madrid, I think they will get Silva instead, as ribery would be seen as a bit much for what they want in ribery (second place to ronaldo in their eyes).

alonso, and albiol aren't joining.
thier defense is horrendous, cannavaro is too old, with no pace or stamina any more. pepe is useless, he makes endless mistakes, marcelo is inconsistent, heinze is booked too many times, and sergio ramos is amazing.
sniejder, van der vaart, van nistelrooy and guti will most likely be leaving.
personally i would like to see united buy nistelrooy back again, guarenteed 10+ goals a season for less than £5m.
perez is making a big mistake, not buying players he needs just big names.
and silva can play out wide so can kaka and marcelo

In my opinion Madrid are making a lot of mistakes, buying Kaka and Ronaldo (nearly a done deal we wont refuse the mega bucks contract) and going after Silva, Ribery and Villa they will end up top heavy (no pun intended) all that attacking class and no defence. Teams will sit back and hit them on the counter attack, as I cant see the likes of Kaka, and Ronaldo chasing back to win the ball.
The only formation that I can see Madrid using and to have a balanced team is 4-2-3-1
Depending on players arriving the possible formation could be –
Iker Casillas
Sergio Ramos
Ezequiel Garay / Raul Albiol
Gago / Alonso
But then what will happen to the international players such as Ruud van Nistelrooy, Mahamadou Diarra, Rafael van der Vaart, Christoph Metzelder, Gonzalo Higuain, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, Ruben de la Red, Gabriel Heinze, Wesley Sneijder, Arjen Robben, Guti, Royston Drenthe and Raul.
I can't see all of them happy with a place on the bench especially as it is a world cup year I wont be surprised if half of that list goes (except Raul he will never leave).
By singing a new "World Super 11†they are destroying a squad so what will happen in November for example when they have assembled a super staring 11 and 5-6 of them are injured or suspended and they have sold half if not all the above list and have no back up players? They will struggle and fall on their face.
What do you think?

I forgot to mention Ronaldo Nike contract, I bet that has gone now as he will be in a addidas team.

If you think about it, Ronaldo for 80mill at first glance can be seen as a complete waste of money and no where near the value. But in a different aspect, the comercial and financial one, they will get sales from ronaldo shirts, they will get more and more finance because of ronaldo. So it is worth it in my opinion in 3/4 years ronaldo will have paid his 80mill back to Madrid.
I also would love to see Van Nistelrooy come back to united as he is my fav player although I don't see it happening because, One of his major reason he left if because of not being in the first team, the same situation at united at the moment with Berbatov, Tevez, Rooney, and up and comings. Although he would be a success still.
I would like to see united get, a quality LW, but that would still be not relevant as United have someone like Park, who can step up and perform, with someone like Valencia/Nani/Fletcher on the RW

ronaldo will earn real madrid around £300m in 5 years, thanks to merchandise, and them taking a cut of his advertising contracts, like with beckham.
so really £80m is a bargain, same with kaka

madrid will win nothing next season, look at their team compared to barcelona, okay madrid are now good going forward but the defence is a shambles as explained by The Red Devil and it will take them at least another season to match barca
also out of interest, how many more people do you think will be going them on FM10??

I agree that Madrid need to gel together first before they win together but, they will still give Barca a run for their money. They probably won't win the CL though. Barca are also strengthening their side this transfer season and I think they will still come out top of Real unless Pellegrini pulls off something ingenious.

if they keep buying players like they are then they will have alot of similar players who cant play together like gerrard and lampard they cant play together
hopefully pepe will go i would sell him for what he did in the R.Madrid Vs Getafe match

Cold weather
The weather is so cold now, with below zero temperatures even during the day. This may turn out to be the last outdoor sketch of the year, at least if the weather continues to be this cold - it was done while waiting for my bus home after work, and shows the busstop by Klostertorv in Århus. Concentrating on my drawing helped distract me a little from the fact that I was freezing cold. Now is the time for café interiors and drawings of the world seen through a window, preferably done in the company of a nice strong cup of hot tea!
So here is a seasonal image of Maia knitting - she's advanced to socks this year and is busily feretting out all the best yarn shops in town. Woolen socks, a cup of tea, and a nice fire are what we need to carry us through the next two-three months.

We spent the weekend in the South, attending a wedding and staying over with old friends. The weather was changeable in the extreme - fog, showers, sun... We caught a short break in the rain today, and managed about half an hours walk in wind and sun. It was much too chilly to draw outside, so I drew a stuffed owl instead - a young Night Owl our friend had found dead by the road. The owl was stuffed and mounted on a piece of deadwood, and it looked deceptively life-like. I kept expecting it to blink and turn its head.
Black and sanguine inks in my large sketchbook diary.

Bussing home from work
Commuter sketching on the way home from work. It's getting colder and more dreary now that it's November, and the bus is more crowded than in the summer where a larger number of people take the bike to work or school.
From my pocket sketchbook - a small Moleskine cahier notebook, which is now full from cover to cover. I both want and don't want to begin another cahier. I'd prefer to use something with a different quality of paper for my next pocket sketchbook, but it still has to be small and light enough to fit in my pocket, and I haven't yet come across any other notebooks of a useful size.
This sketch has also been blogged on Urban Sketchers - check out the international sketch-blog with contributing artists from towns and cities on four continents, if you haven't already.

My little pocket sketchbook
I filled up the first little pocket sketchbook. You can see a slideshow of the entire booklet here: Moleskine Cahier no.1
I like how handy these little sketchbooks are - at just 9 by 14 cm they fit easily into a small purse or a coat pocket, so it's simple to have one along everywhere in case an opportunity to sketch should present itself. I'm not too happy about the detachable pages though - the last half of the pages of the booklet has a perforation along the inner seam that makes it more difficult to use the entire spread when drawing. But they are still the most handy little sketchbooks I've come across on the market here, so unless I take up making my own I'll no doubt continue to use them.

Random images
I know that doing art is my certain way to a little peace and quiet, and yet sometimes when I am most in need I cannot find the patience to pick a subject or medium. This is the result of one of my mindless gropings for just anything to draw - the day's paper on the table in front of me. I probably wouldn't have thought of drawing the paper, if I had given it any thought at all - all that text!
This is drawn in my little Moleskine cahier, so quite small, using a mechanical pencil and with a few colour details added in ink pens.
