F.E.A.R. Perseus Mandate is a stand-alone expansion pack for the psychological horror first-person shooter video game F.E.A.R. The expansion was developed by TimeGate Studios, the same development team behind the first expansion, F.E.A.R. Extraction Point.[2]
The game follows the exploits of a new player character, a member of a secondary F.E.A.R. team sent in to investigate Armacham's Perseus Project. The game takes place during the events of the original F.E.A.R. as well as the Extraction Point expansion pack. New introductions to gameplay include friendly A.I.-controlled characters who fight alongside the player character, as well as a new faction of enemies. The sequel to F.E.A.R., F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin, ignores the events of both expansion packs.[3][citation needed]
Just after ATC murders Aldus Bishop and openly begins to battle against F.E.A.R. and Delta Force, Commander Betters airdrops a second F.E.A.R. team to ATC's secondary facility to investigate the company and any wrongdoing it is involved with. This second F.E.A.R. team consists of Captain David Raynes, Lt. Steve Chen, and the unnamed F.E.A.R. Sergeant (the player character). After battling through Replica soldiers and ATC security forces, the second F.E.A.R. team discover that a third faction has already infiltrated the ATC facility and killed everyone inside. This faction consists of highly trained mercenaries known as "Nightcrawlers", who are armed with advanced weapons. The Nightcrawler ranks also include several elite super-soldiers who possess the same SloMo ability previously demonstrated by the F.E.A.R. Pointman.
It is revealed that the Nightcrawlers work for the mysterious Senator, and are searching for "the Source", the genetic template from which the Replica soldiers were created (later revealed to be a sample of Paxton Fettel's DNA). The F.E.A.R. team discover that Armacham had 3 major facilities involved in Project Perseus; an active bio-research facility where Fettel's DNA is stored, an abandoned secret cloning facility where the Replica soldiers were actually produced, and the Origin facility where Alma is imprisoned. F.E.A.R. and Delta Force launch an assault against the bio-research facility, battling through Replica, ATC, and Nightcrawler forces. However, the Nightcrawlers manage to obtain and escape with a sample of Fettel's DNA. The F.E.A.R. team almost manages to capture Gavin Morrison, the Senator's main agent, but are interrupted by the explosion of the Origin facility, which throws the entire city into chaos.
The Sergeant and Lt. Chen awake in an abandoned part of the city's subway system, and discover that the explosion of the Origin facility has unleashed a wave of deadly paranormal activity. Chen manages to fight off an attack initially (the same creatures that killed Douglas Holiday), but is torn to pieces by a new type of Alma apparition that comes out of the floor. The Sergeant continues through the subway system in pursuit of the Nightcrawlers. The Sergeant eventually manages to reach the surface, and reestablishes contact with Captain Raynes, who orders him to make his way to the ATC Cloning Facility, where the Nightcrawlers seem to be headed. This is complicated by the re-activation of the Replica soldiers following Fettel's resurrection.
On the way to the Cloning Facility, the Sergeant encounters Gavin Morrison, who has been captured by the Nightcrawlers. Morrison reveals that the Nightcrawlers are attempting to acquire a sample of Alma's DNA, and that they must be stopped. Morrison briefly accompanies the Sergeant on the way to the Cloning Facility, but is killed when Alma causes an armored car to drop on him.
The Sergeant eventually reaches the Cloning Facility, where he is greeted by the ghost of Paxton Fettel, who makes several cryptic communications with the Sergeant, as well as sending in Replica soldiers to kill him. The Sergeant fights his way through Fettel's Replicas as well as the Nightcrawler forces, but is too late to prevent the Nightcrawler Commander from acquiring a sample of Alma's DNA.
The Sergeant pursues the Nightcrawler Commander through the facility, eventually battling the Commander and the remaining Nightcrawler forces in a final showdown. The Sergeant then acquires the sample of Alma's DNA, and escapes to the surface where Captain Raynes is waiting for him. The Sergeant and Raynes fight their way through Fettel's final Replica Elite soldiers, and successfully manage to reach an evacuation helicopter. (The sky is the same at the end of the first expansion, it must be about twenty to thirty minutes before the next explosion.) When the Sergeant gets inside, Lt. Chen appears to be there waiting for them. Captain Raynes remarks that the Sergeant is due for a promotion to Lieutenant, and that Chen would be proud of him. Chen's ghost then fades away.
After the credits roll, a Nightcrawler Elite is seen approaching the Senator, bringing him the sample of Fettel's DNA. The Senator asks how many losses there were, and the Nightcrawler Elite replies that losses were "acceptable".
It has been stated that the expansion takes place in an alternate universe from the original F.E.A.R.,[4] and that the game's sequel, F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin, disregards the storylines of both Extraction Point and Perseus Mandate.[5] Only the games developed by Monolith Productions and Day 1 Studios are considered canon.
The F.E.A.R. Team[edit]
- The F.E.A.R. Sergeant: The protagonist of Perseus Mandate. No background information is given about the Sergeant, other than the fact that he is the third member of F.E.A.R.'s secondary team. He seems to possess the same SloMo ability as the F.E.A.R. Pointman, but this is never commented on or explained directly in game itself; although the player can hear some enemies exclaim "He's been enhanced!" when engaging SloMo. Towards the end of the game, Paxton Fettel implies that he has been expecting the Sergeant's arrival, and remarks that the Sergeant reminds him of his brother (the F.E.A.R. Pointman). However, Fettel ultimately tells the Sergeant that the incident is none of his affair, and warns him not to interfere. It could be interpreted by the presence of cloning labs and related equipment, as well as the unexplained SloMo ability of the player and Fettel's remark that the Sergeant and Point Man are similar, that the Sergeant is a clone of the Point Man. Towards the end of the game, the Nightcrawler Commander states that Betters has sent one of his 'tin men' to kill him. The implications of this remark, and the relationship between the Nightcrawlers and FEAR, is unknown.
- Captain David Raynes: The leader of the secondary F.E.A.R. team. Raynes leads the secondary F.E.A.R. team through the mission, issuing orders to Lt. Chen and the player character.
- Lieutenant Steve Chen: The second member of the secondary F.E.A.R. team. A wisecracking soldier, Chen seems to possess a well-rounded skill-set which includes combat, forensics, and technical expertise. Notably, he is the only character in the F.E.A.R. series (other than the player characters and Paxton Fettel) who is mentioned as being able to see Alma.
- Rowdy Betters: The Commander of F.E.A.R. As in the original F.E.A.R., Betters interacts with the F.E.A.R. team over the radio, issuing orders and providing intelligence. Contact with him is lost halfway through the game, after the explosion of the Origin facility.
- Gavin Morrison: The Senator's agent, who is working alongside the Nightcrawlers to collect the secret behind the Perseus Project. Morrison is a former NSA agent who was expelled for his cowboy attitude, and now works as a trouble-shooter for the Washington power elite. Although he initially appears to lead the Nightcrawlers, he is later shown to be a mere middle-man, and is even captured and detained by them after the explosion of the Origin facility that throws the city into chaos.
- The Nightcrawler Commander: The albino leader of the Nightcrawlers, a group of highly trained mercenaries who have been sent in to steal ATC's genetic research. Although he initially appears to be working for Morrison and the Senator, he later makes statements indicating that both Morrison and the Senator are actually expendable. The Commander possesses intimate knowledge of the F.E.A.R. organization, as well as the same SloMo ability as the Pointman and the Sergeant.
- Paxton Fettel: Paxton Fettel's "ghost" appears after the explosion of the Origin facility, communicating with the player character on several occasions, making threatening remarks to the Nightcrawlers, and occasionally providing some comic relief.
Perseus Mandate includes the new weapons and enemies found in the previous expansion pack, Extraction Point. Additionally, the new expansion pack includes three new weapons (an advanced rifle with a nightvision scope, a grenade launcher, and a lightning gun) and five new enemies (a new type of ATC soldier, a new type of Alma ghost, Nightcrawler soldiers, and Nightcrawler Elites and a new bug virus which can lock doors to contain the player).
Perseus Mandate also features 3 "bonus missions" that are unlocked after the single-player campaign is beaten. These bonus missions are similar to the "instant action" missions of the PS3 and Xbox 360 version of F.E.A.R., and feature the player progressing through small plot-free levels while fighting through several waves of enemies.
The game also features a modified version of the original F.E.A.R.'s multiplayer, which includes new player models as well as the 5 new weapons added by the two expansion packs (the previous expansion pack, Extraction Point, had no multiplayer component, and thus the two weapons introduced by that expansion had not previously been available in multiplayer).
F.E.A.R Perseus Mandate received mixed to positive reviews from critics upon release. As of November 29, 2007, Metacritic had an averaged score of 63/100 with 10 reviews. Most sites stated that the game looks dated, and that a lack of new environments or anything else prevented it from ranking higher.[6] IGN gave Perseus Mandate 5.9/10, citing the lack of notable new content and stating that the graphics and gameplay were virtually identical to the original.[8] HEXUS.gaming concluded that F.E.A.R. Perseus Mandate was uninspiring and repetitive, "a digital example of flogging a dead horse".[9] GameSpot gave it a score of 5.5 out of 10, stating that it "feels like a completely unnecessary trip to the well for Sierra, especially considering that series creator Monolith is already working on a proper sequel in the form of Project Origin."[7]

Rising star climbs mountains in Hollywood Adam Beach co-stars in 'Flags of our Fathers'
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Born on the Dog Creek Indian Reserve in Canada, actor Adam Beach has climbed many mountains during his lifetime – but none has changed his life as much as climbing the mountains of Iwo Jima.
Beach co-stars in the Clint Eastwood film "Flags of our Fathers," which opened nationwide Oct. 20. He plays the role of Ira Hayes, a Pima Indian who served in the U.S. Marines during World War II and was captured in the famous flag-raising photograph on the island of Iwo Jima by Associated Press photographer Joe Rosenthal. Advance screenings of "Flags" have targeted Beach as a rising star by several media outlets.
"This will be the best movie that I will ever do and that I'll ever be apart of," Beach, 33, said. "It was everything. It's the story; it's the honest portrayal of these young men. It's the message; it's Clint Eastwood, Steven Spielberg; it's the whole package, and now I felt that I've completed a journey."
Beach, of Saulteaux decent, attended a special advance screening of the movie on Oct 18 in Scottsdale. Five hundred audience members, the majority American Indian, laughed and cried as they watched the story of Hayes' life and death unfold on the screen.
Hayes was born on the Gila River Indian Reservation in Sacaton and after years of battling alcoholism, he died at the age of 32.
"People are going to see a different side of Ira; a side that they've never seen before," Beach said. "It's so uplifting."
United National Indian Tribal Youth was a sponsor of the event that welcomed several tribal leaders from Arizona and across Indian country to be among the first to see the film. Among the honored guest was the family of Ira Hayes.
"He [Beach] did an excellent job," said Yvonne Flores, Hayes' cousin. "We are all pleased with it. The movie portrayed the truth of what happened, so we are all very pleased."
After the film, UNITY and Beach presented Hayes' brother, Kenneth Hayes, and niece, Sara Bernal, with a blanket to honor them.
Beach said during the filming of the movie he couldn't help but to reflect on his own life.
"I have a past of pain and anguish," he said. "Losing my parents when I was a kid and when we were shooting this movie, I lost my grandmother in the middle of filming." Beach said he became aware of his grandmother's passing by a phone call and the pain he experienced was heart-wrenching.
"Ira must have been in a horrific position of having his friends die right in front of him," Beach said. "I just got a phone call and I felt pain so deep, and here he had to watch his friends die in front of him."
"Flags of our Fathers" is based on the book of the same title by author James Bradley, the son of John "Doc" Bradley, one of the other five flag-raisers. From the research James Bradley did in his 2000 book, Beach said people are going to see a truthful and honest portrayal of Ira Hayes.
"I think that is all he wanted – for people to know the truth," Beach said. "They definitely didn't know what happened behind this picture and now they get to see it."
After his portrayal of Hayes, Beach said he has completed a journey in his career and in his life.
"People always ask me about the acting," Beach said, who has held minor television roles since 1990 and starred in such movies as "Smoke Signals" and "Windtalkers."
"Now I feel I have made it to the top of a mountain and I can see that I still have a lot of mountains in my future," he said. "But now I get to choose what mountain I want to climb, and that's a powerful thing."

LAS VEGAS - Trevor Brazile of Decatur, Texas, won his third straight world all-around title Friday night in the eighth round of the National Finals Rodeo.
Brazile, the first cowboy to win three consecutive all-around titles since Ty Murray in 1989-91, has earned $253,160 this season in team roping, steer roping and tie-down roping. Second-place Stran Smith of Childress, Texas, has made $177,98, and third-place Blair Burk of Durant, Okla., has earned $154,239.
Jackie Dube of Giddings, Texas, won her second straight barrel racing round with a 13.72-second run, just off the record of 13.63 set by Tammy Key in 2002. Paula Seay of Lake Butler, Fla., followed in 13.95, and Molly Powell of Simms, Mont., was third in 13.99.
In steer wrestling, Shawn Greenfield of Lakeview, Ore., won with a 3.1-second run, a tenth off the world record set by Steve Duhon in 1986 and matched by Bryan Fields in 2001.
World leader Luke Branquinho of Los Alamos, Calif., was second in 3.3, and Lee Graves of Canada and Rope Myers of Van, Texas, tied for third in 3.5.
"I got a good start and my horse worked well," Greenfield said. "I had a great go and that steer has tons of action. I knew he'd be pretty electric. I knew I could be real fast. I knew I had a chance to win the round, but I didn't know I could be that fast."
Fred Boettcher of Tomah, Wis., topped the bull riders with a 91-point ride on Growney Brothers Rodeo's Wild Side. Matt Austin of Wills Point, Texas, was second with an 87.5, and Beau Hill of West Glacier, Mont., finished third with an 86.

Local real estate officials said last week that May's lackluster home sales increase was partly the result of a decline in inventory.
Within that metric are varying levels of supply, depending on price and the type of residence.
A total of 6,113 homes that were listed for sale May 31 were classified as "active" in the Charleston Trident Multiple Listing Service. That's down 4.6 percent from a year ago.
The figure included 4,985 single-family homes, down 4.2 percent, or 221 fewer than in May 2013.
But a slightly larger decrease was in the condominium segment, which has been putting up strong sales numbers in the last several months. A total of 1,128 condos were for sale at the end of May, down 6 percent from the same month in 2013.
May's data also showed that homes in the most affordable price range are in high demand. The $100,000-and-below market has been losing the largest chunks of inventory in both single-family and multifamily dwellings.
For example, 487 homes were available at or below that threshold at the close of last month, or 30 percent fewer than a year ago. The number of condos at that price point declined at an even faster pace, by 35.1 percent to 225.
The market for condo buyers is more favorable in the $100,001 to $150,000 range. That price point had 212 listings at the end of last month, up 17.8 percent from May 2013.

The S.C. Department of Consumer Affairs is marking Homeownership Month by providing consumers with daily tips with its Twitter and Facebook pages.

Today's growing condition of thinning and balding (alopecia), we specialize in hair replacement that promotes healthy hair growth.
Glue is one of the leading causes for hair loss. It is used for track bonding to the scalp (causes hair to thin and eventually bald) and strand-by-strand fusion (causes bald spots and hair breakage where the fusion tip is connected to your hair). A lot of clients refer to our salon as a hair recovery center after using these unhealthy methods.
The complete head of extensions is guaranteed to be flat with no humps, lumps, or bumps even after months of new-growth. The average amount of time the weave lasts is 3 months with the recommended monthly maintenance. We use high quality hair and are proud distributors of %100 Remy Indian hair.
We offer free consultations for you to visit us and observe our work to find the style that fits you. Since we do not over-book, we require a $50 deposit upon making an appointment. This means you will be the only client for your stylist for your particular time slot. This ensures that you will be in and out of the salon within a timely manner. The $50 for your deposit will be deducted from the total cost of your style. For example, if your style is $75 you would only need to pay $25 on the day of your visit because you paid a $50 deposit. This policy also reduces appointment cancellation.

MSO closes season with crowd-pleaser 'Bolero,' more
The Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra is closing its classical season this weekend with a performance of Ravel's "Bolero" that won a standing, cheering ovation Friday evening.
Guest conductor Gilbert Varga led the orchestra through a well-constructed program that also included: Mozart's "Overture to 'Le nozze di Figaro'" ("The Marriage of Figaro"); Tchaikovsky's Concerto in D major for violin and orchestra, featuring guest violinist Karen Gomyo; and Kodály's "Dances of Galánta." »Read Full Article
Soulstice cast hits the right notes with Sondheim's 'Follies'
Just after intermission in the production of Stephen Sondheim's "Follies" now being staged by Soulstice Theatre, Heidi Schiller — oldest among the pre-World War II showgirls attending a one-time reunion — begins to warble an operetta-like tune from her heyday.
Playing the older Heidi, Amanda Hull sings that we must never look back. But of course Heidi looks, remembering the ravishing young performer she'd once been, when she could hit every note in songs like this one. Which the suddenly materialized younger Heidi (a lovely Julianne Frey) then easily does, singing of the bittersweet passage of time — something a young Heidi can't possibly feel as acutely as her older self does. »Read Full Article

Ricky Burns Stops Joseph Laryea After Right Hand Injury
By Alexey Sukachev
Braehead Arena, Glasgow, Scotland - WBO super featherweight champion Ricky Burns (31-2, 8KOs) stopped a game Joseph Laryea (11-5, 11KOs) after the challenger was unable to come out for the eight round. Laryea's corner told the referee the boxer hand injured his right hand and was unable to continue.
Laryea looked strong and willing to trade in the early rounds of the fight. He had a very strong fourth round, but Burns started to target the body and made it a hard, physical fight for the challenger. Prior to the stoppage, Burns was really coming on and Laryea was starting to fade.
Other results:
Paul Appleby (17-2, 11 KOs) PTS 6 Youssef Al Haimidi (8-31-2, 1 KO)
John Thain (4-0, 1 KO) PTS 4 Kevin McCalley (9-24-3)
Craig Evans (3-0, 1 KO) PTS 4 Sid Razak (6-60, 2 KOs)
Stephen Simmons (1-0, 1 KO) TKO 2 Nick Okoth (10-33-5, 3 KOs). Simmons made his pro debut. Okoth is the finalist of last year's Prizefighter series at cruiserweight limit.

calves take a lot to get them to grow, and you can't see his quads that well. He just has a naturally small waste and knees, doesn't mean he never works legs

They should still be proportionate to the gain he's receiving for upper body. Even if you did take into account that he was still working them out just at a much slower pace than the rest, it still should not be this horribly out of whack.

Cotto responds to Sergio's comment about him.
More or less " I see he is trying to sell the fight already...Sergio does not have to like me as a person...My wife and kids like me as a person...He lives in Argentina, I live in PR, we don't have to see one another and so it is of no consequence what Sergio thinks about me.. . What he needs to focus on is being in top shape for the fight." ~Cotto

Agree with Cotto. i think Sergio is just trying to motivate himself as he hasn't looked that interested in his fights as of late, save for the Chavez one.

If Sergio is going to be trolling and acting like a 7 grade girl then he better be ready because King Cotto will bring pain.

Cotto is right, Sergio is just trying to sell the fight already. No need to hate Sergio also, he is doing his job and he needs a big payday, he doesn't have many fights left, everybody in his position would do the same and try to sell this fight talking trash about Cotto.
I just don´t care of this BS, I just wanna see this great fight ASAP.

It does seem that Martinez is trying to get some kind of emotion involved to help spur his efforts but to me it seems a bit of a waste of time. Like that whole thing with the handshake 'incident' he likes to mention...Whatever man, big deal, there are bigger things going on at the moment (like actually getting ready to fight Cotto) rather than try rallying some emotion behind being 'disrespected' by Miguel.
Pretty sure the animosity that Martinez tries to counjour up is just to help him, which is fine I guess, but I'm with Miguel on this, just get ready, stop going on about how personal things are etc...Just get ready, this will be a good fight and we will all watch with anticipation, no need to force some hate over a petty incident years ago for example.

***Giveaway Has Ended***
They say that the most worthwhile things are always the very hardest to do…
Military couples know this is especially true when it comes to saying goodbye to a loved one who you won't see for a while. Such a crucial moment deserves some special prepped love to send with them so we've compiled a list of things you can do to create memories with each other and help bridge the distance – things that both of you can look back on and relive when you are feeling down or want to remember "the good times".
For starters, consider these powerful words from Jerilyn Marler, the fabulous author of the book Lily Hates Goodbyes, as she gives her advice on…
Building a Connection that Can Withstand Deployment.
Use these techniques to construct together a deeply personal virtual world, one that you can step into instantly and surround yourself with the loving warmth of a shared experience. Make each other smile with private secrets. Commit to sustaining your sense of appreciation for each other throughout deployment by sending smiles and warm glows across the miles. While the big happy hello comes at the end of deployment, every phone call, every email can be its own little happy hello. And if it contains a coded message that makes you blush, all the better."
O.M.Gosh, the little things really are sooo heartfelt! Thanks Jerilyn for sharing your wonderful insight.
* * * * * * * * * *
So if your first question is……
"Where in the world do I begin?"
Sistah, you're in luck! Imagine these ideas tailored exactly the way you'd do them for your honey!
1~ Create a puzzle with a secret message on it. Grab a red poster board {oh yeah, the color of looove} from the Dollar Store and write your message on the front. On the back make your own puzzle piece design, cut it out, and TA-DA your own personalized puzzle. Give him one piece at a time – starting with him leaving and then all throughout his deployment until he gets home.
2~ Sarah from the blog Journey of Love shares with us this Military Salute Album idea: Create a photo album. Whoever said a picture is worth 1,000 words wasn't kiddin'! Photos are priceless memories captured in time… memories you want your spouse to always remember. This is seriously a perfect gift for a loved one to take with them on a long deployment. Again, have fun with personalizing your album cuz' this is all about the unique beauty of your family & relationship!
3~ Like Jerilyn said, "Exchange small but meaningful items to carry or wear; talismans of your love, touchstones." I love, LoVe, LOVE the idea of making personalized dog tags! One for you to wear and one for your spouse to add to his other dog tags. You can even make dog tags with photos of you and the kids on them for him to wear close to his heart while he is away. Oh, and for your kids {or if your spouse is into silly bands} surprise them with these great Military Shaped Bands from shindigz.com to wear. This is a great way to help kids feel connected to Dad and remind them of him at every glance. If you haven't browsed Shindigz.com, you will totally be impressed. They have tons of awesome military party supplies that you can use for going away parties, customized gifts, care packages, etc.
4~ Girls, this one's a biggie. Obviously you can't appreciate enough the power of your last night together before a goodbye. Yes, those last intimate moments you get to spend together before the countdown to being reunited. Of course how everyone makes their night extra special will be different, and that is beautiful! But if you're looking for a new idea that might stand out in his mind {men remember visuals very well!} I dare suggest why not dress up like a pin up girl?! This is sooo sexy and yet classically quite tasteful at the same time {cat whistle call!} No time to look? No problem. If this sounds fun to you, here's a link to one that totally fits the bill: Military Pin Up Adult Costume found at Celebrate Express.
Last of all….we just HAD to include this genuis idea that fellow Diva Corie did for HER husband before sending him off for two years. Here she is…
* * * * * * * * * *
When you truly love someone, time or distance can't really separate you….
It doesn't seem like so long ago that my husband was gone for two years. Before he left, I couldn't help but think of all the special events we would miss together such as birthdays, holidays, anniversary's, etc. I didn't want to miss a second of anything without him. So….my mind went to work! Before my husband left, I planned a special date night that allowed us to celebrate some of the special times we would miss. I used my parent's basement and set up several different stations centered around each holiday, birthday and special event we would not be together. At each station, I tried to create an activity, meal, present or use something that represented that event. I used all of my holiday decorations to give this date night an authentic feel. I created little signs for each holiday/event. Starting in January, we would take a tour through each event
As the date night started, we first visited the New Year's station. We watched the ball drop online from a previous year. We set goals together and even enjoyed some sparkling cider. After New Year's, we were fast on our way to Valentine's Day.
Valentine's: The Valentine's station did not disappoint with a romantic, candlelit dinner for two. We also enjoyed looking through photo albums recalling all of the fun things we had done together. This station was also filled with rose petals and was the perfect setting for a slow dance.
St. Patrick's Day: This station was all about GREEN and LUCK! There was a green wrapped present awaiting my husband. When he opened it, it was a LUCKY key chain for him to take for extra luck while he was gone.
Easter: At this station we enjoyed an Easter egg hunt. Now, this wasn't your normal hunt. I decided to have him go on a hunt for things that he could use while he was gone. For example. a few of the eggs contained postage stamps. My husband's big find at the end of the hunt was a new set of stationary and pens. (P.S. Yes, this was before email was being used by everyone!)
The Anniversary: At this station, I presented my husband with 365 little notes. On each note, I had written a one-sentence memory of our lives together. This turned out to be on the of the greatest things I did! He took all of the notes with him (which actually fit into a office sized envelope). Each week when he would write me a letter, he would include three of the memories I had written and he would write a comment on the back side of the memory. Wow, this truly help keep the flame burning remembering all the big and little things that made us the couple that we were. I still have the notes to this day. I know my children will enjoy reading these special love notes/memories when they are older!
4th of July: Oh, this station truly sparkled! We went outside for this one! We enjoyed lighting sparklers and spelling out secret love messages in the air for each other.
Halloween: This station was spooky! We actually watched a scary movie on this one…remember the movie, Sixth Sense? There isn't a better way to get scared and cuddle with the one you love!
Thanksgiving: At this station we enjoyed a slice of pumpkin pie! We also talked about all the things we were thankful for. Sometimes when life seems to be hard, when you stop and think of all the things that are going good, it helps to give you a better outlook.
Christmas: The final station on our tour was Christmas. I had a small tree set up and a few gifts underneath. Some of the gifts included, a homemade t-shirt with my picture on it, a photo frame with the two of us together and a few useful items that my husband was going to need while he was gone.
Even though this wasn't the real thing, it gave us a chance to celebrate and to somewhat enjoy some of the things we were going to miss.

The Lowndes County Sheriff's Office has made two arrests after investigating burglaries that occurred on Briggston Road and Johnson Road South.
Sherriff's officials say that in both burglaries, the home owner had recently moved and left items such appliances, tools, and toys with the intent to retrieve them later.
Once the owners left, that is when the suspects would strike.
Investigators were able to locate some of the items being sold on social media websites to unknowing buyers. However, some of the items have been recovered.
Sheriff's officials say that Christopher Pollette and Emanuel Trevino-Vazquez have been arrested and charged with multiple counts of burglary in connection with this investigation and are currently in the Lowndes County Jail.

Skip to comments.James Woods tweets priceless photo of Obama preparing address on racial hatred
Posted on 08/27/2013 4:15:50 PM PDT by NKP_Vet
Actor James Woods may never work another day in Hollywood at the rate hes going. While relatively new to Twitter, Woods does not believe in keeping your powder dry when it comes to President Obama.
(Excerpt) Read more at bizpacreview.com ...
Jimmy is doing a fine job on Showtime's "Ray Donovan" as a Boston gangster loosely based on Whitey Bulger.
he'll now be typecast as a creepy azz cracker.
We're all crackas, now.
You belong to a Tea Party? You're a cracka.
You believe in Voter ID laws? You're a cracka.
You think Al Sharpton and Jesse aJacksonnnn are race baiters? You're really a cracka.
"James Woods may never work another day in Hollywood"
That's OK, he could probably do very well as a politician. Heck, I would vote for him for just about any office. I would love to see him move to Arazon and run against McLame or perhaps he could mop the floor with Linsey Graham.
Brave soul. That dispelled (but only briefly) my theory that there are no patriots in Hollywood.
You a white woman giving birth to a white baby you racist.
of course not being a Twit, I can't see the photo...anyone got a copy?
Highest IQ of any actor and it shows.
James Woods has a 180 IQ. I would vote for him.
The photo is at post #2 of this thread.
I have no understanding of why it is termed "priceless"
not seeing anything but empty space for "null and void" post.....now that's strange
nope..nothing there either
I see cripplecreeks post 14....but not the twitter pics
Can you click on my link at #20?
Go get 'em, Jimmie!
"I see cripplecreeks post 14....but not the twitter pics "
Twitter has been hacked.
nope...don't work for me.....all it does is send me back to where I start on twitter...I see the post and can read them...but not view pics
Nothing for me as well.
Can't say I didn't try.....as for being hacked, it seems fine to me.
Sorry folks, I tried my best.....
I get the same page......with same results...:(
thanks....figured I'd find it in google news pics...but nothing there either
It's a pic of Obastard and Sharpton, O's arm around the other race-baiter's shoulder, both having a really good laugh at some cracker.
It's just a generic pic of Obama and Sharpton laughing.
I clicked on the tw link embedded at the linked bizpac article. Worked fine. Took me right to James Woods tw page.
Oh, I misread the headline. It looked like 'princess' photo.
He's currently on "Justified". Nick Searcy has been in everything.
James Woods IQ 180.
Well that's about 177 above the combined IQs of Obama, Sharpton and Jackson.
Woods: loved him in John Carpenter's "Vampires". He could really stick it to the bad guys (in the movies, and now in life).
My kinda guy!
I get him mixed up with John Wood. John Wood died in 2011.
As a corollary to Woods question why a major network would allow a blatant bigot to be a news commentator? I would ask why a president would allow a blatant bigoted news commentator to be seated next to him?
James Woods was great in this one.
I'll add Patricia Heaton and Victoria Jackson.
Searcy's most recent post in responce to someone calling him a nobody has been actor.
Yes, Nick Searcy! @yesnicksearcy 2m
How much of a film biz p**sy must you be if you kiss all the right ass like @ACTORSandCREW & u STILL won't show your real name?
Yes, Nick Searcy! @yesnicksearcy 47s
Sorry, utterly failed? I'm a working actor, not a gutless nobody like you.
In Ebonics (ghettospeak) that would be
You a cracka.
You be a cracka.
Got it. I be workin' on dat.

The man suspected of killing British lawmaker Jo Cox once attended a meeting of American white supremacists in London, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center report published Sunday, NBC News reported.
According to the SLPC, which tracks hate groups, Mair was one of between 15 and 20 people to appear at a gathering 16 years ago, aimed at expanding an American neo-Nazi's "white power" music business into Europe.
Mair appeared to be loosely connected to a local chapter of the neo-Nazi group National Alliance, former GOP domestic policy analyst and consultant Todd Blodgett told the SLPC.
Cox, 41, died Thursday after Mair, 52, allegedly stabbed and shot her and referenced a far right anti-immigrant group opposed to Britain's membership in the European Union.

For me, the number one reason to avoid black suits is that it seems to be the uniform of recently (like today) graduated high school students. That's why I avoid wearing black suits during spring and summer (also because it never really gets dark around here during summer).

On the other hand, during the winter months, we have almost eternal twilight/darkness so black is more acceptable.post #1010 of 10691/12/11 at 6:51pmThe more conservative grey or blue suits go well with just about any shirt / tie mix imaginable.
The black suit is far more limited regarding shirt/tie combinations. A plain white shirt or even lighter coloured shirts such as light blue or yellow do not hold up particularly well in a business environment. The black suit, in some sense, gets carried by the shirt rather than the suit carrying the shirt.
That said, I wear a black suit occasionally to work. I usually combine it with an edgy "vintage looking" shirt such as some of those by Etro. With a "vintage looking" tie, the black suit holds up well.
I for one hate Navy or Blue suits, I look in the mirror when I put one on and see a poorly dressed bastard. I generally prefer the darker shades of grey when it comes to suits.post #1011 of 10691/12/11 at 6:56pm

A black suit can look wonderful. I do not wear one as much as I would like only because:
1) I stick out like a sore thumb at work where 50% wear navy or navy pinstripe suits, 30% stick with greys/grey pinstripes, and rest wear a sport coat / different coloured slacks mix.
2) It is hard to make a black suit look formal rather than dressy when the sun is blazing outside. Shirt and tie selection is key to making it work.
That said, I love black suits, and wear a black blazer with jeans/chinos at least once a week.post #1014 of 10691/12/11 at 8:20pm
So what exactly is meant by a "black suit?" Are we talking about a solid black suit or a black suit with a pinstripe, window pane design, etc? I'm just curious b/c I think more can be done with a black suit with a design in it that can automatically make it look a lot less formal and acceptable than the solid color suit.post #1015 of 10691/12/11 at 10:24pmIm thinking were talking of solid black suits. I suppose a black suit with tonal black stripes would also be on many people's list of "evil suits to wear to work".

Black pinstripe is not generally looked down upon like solid black.
Black with Windowpane design - I would like to see that. Blue stripes or charcoal stripes / plaids might be an interesting combo.post #1016 of 10691/12/11 at 11:13pm

Interesting thread, and some valid points within its many pages. Personally, I tend to dress toward the Trad side of business and formal dress, and I do not own a black suit. I also work as an attorney but in West Michigan (read, not exactly the hotbed of fashion). Now, I do occasionally see an attorney wearing some black JAB, ill-fitting, three button suit, but they usually are also wearing some tone-on-tone, red, Van Heusen boxed gift set shirt and tie combo that looks like sin. The ONLY time I would think about wearing a black suit is to a funeral. Period.
For work, I wear many kinds of suits, patterns, and colors, but never black. If I go out of the evening with an open collar and suit, I make sure it is solid navy or solid charcoal, not black. I am also getting married this fall and am going the informal route at the bride's request. As such, I will be wearing a peaked lapel, three piece suit, in either oxford grey or dark charcoal grey, but NOT black. If I wanted to go black, I would have gone with a tuxedo, but I'm getting married in a church, and during the daytime, so there is no way a tux is going to work. Morning dress or a stroller yes, but not a tux.
Now, as for evening formal events, if black tie is required, you wear a tuxedo. I think there were a plethora of celebrities last night breaking all sorts of rules, wearing black suits and ties when they clearly should have been tuxedos and bowties. I'm also not a fan of the black tuxedo, black shirt, and black tie look either (ugh hum, George Clooney on several occasions, Christian Bale last night Oscars). I think wearing a black suit always reminds of a pseudo tuxedo, and I am always looking for the satin black stripe on the side of the leg.post #1018 of 10692/27/12 at 4:46am
