Welcome to Edinburgh University Boat Club, one of the largest and most successful boat clubs in Scotland and the UK
EUBC is one of the oldest and largest sports clubs within the University of Edinburgh. The aim of our club is to promote the sport of rowing at the university, with the ultimate goal of allowing all club members to not only enjoy participating in the world's oldest varsity sport, but to also be successful in competition at local, national and international levels.
The Boat Club has been a significant stepping stone to high international honours for many – Edinburgh rowers frequently represent Scotland at the Home International Regatta and former members have gone on to record success at World Championship and Olympic regattas, including Polly Swann and Katherine Grainger.
Membership not only gives students all the tools necessary for success on the water – from high quality equipment to dedicated coaches and training programmes – but also a lively calendar of social events throughout the year which gives our club a tightly-knit family feel, unusual in clubs of comparative size.
Former members frequently point to rowing at Edinburgh as one of the highlights of their time as a student. EUBC has, for over a century, provided something unique in student sport; a genuine opportunity to both follow a path all the way to the pinnacles of sporting achievement and also to become involved in one of the most exciting and friendly clubs at Edinburgh University.
The recreational rowing squad is a more relaxed squad that focuses on the fun and social aspects of rowing. If you want to carry on rowing without all the morning starts then this is the squad for you!

The other day, we ran a video of an NHL playoff commercial featuring Mark Messier . Why? Because I thought it was cool. Well I was reading NHL-playoff-ads-inspire-Web?urn=nhl,231324">Puck Daddy today and apparently this video caused quite a few fan produced spin-offs.
Here is my favorite one (click on the headline to view):
There are a lot more than just that and Puck Daddy is soliciting for more so hopefully there will still be some even better ones to come. I'll be keeping an eye open for some other really good ones or Ranger related ones.
Which one is your favorite?

WHO recommends new tuberculosis test
Geneva, 11 August 2016 – The World Health Organization has issued a recommendation for a rapid and robust test to diagnose pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in peripheral health centres. The test, known as TB-LAMP (loop-mediated isothermal amplification), requires minimal laboratory infrastructure and has been evaluated as an alternative to sputum smear microscopy, still the most widespread test in use in resource-limited settings.
New survey investigates levels of resistance to essential TB drugs
The first ever multi-country population-based survey investigating levels of the resistance to essential tuberculosis (TB) drugs was published last week in The Lancet Infectious Diseases. This work was led by the World Health Organization (WHO), in collaboration with National TB Programmes, National TB Reference Laboratories and Supranational Reference Laboratories.

The Vinotherapie® experts at Caudalie have come up with a lush eye cream that tackles all the main signs of aging: dehydration, fine lines, loss of elasticity and firmness, puffiness, and dark circles. This sophisticated formula alleviates all those issues with a potent blend of antioxidants, anti-aging ingredients, and natural hydrators. Plus, light-diffusing particles make the under eye area look immediately brighter.
I'm a huge fan of Caudalie and this eye cream continues to keep me loving their line. I regularly use their eye & lip serum, so this wonderful cream is a nice add on to the serum. I've used their serum for seven years and have not been disappointed....I'm sure this eye cream will stand the test of time as well.5
I have been noticing more fine lines and dark circles under my eyes and have been on a quest for the right product. Thank you, Birchbox, for sending it straight to my door! The consistency of this cream is just right, not too creamy but not too much of a serum. It glides on and melts into my skin. After a couple of weeks of use, my fine lines are far less noticeable and my eye area looks brighter. When I first got the sample, I was horrified by the price tag, but this tiny sample keeps on going! I would imagine the full size will last far longer than my usual eye creams.5
This is a really nice product, it goes on smooth, sinks right in,
I havent noticed any dramatic results and I use it maybe 4 times a week. You can tell this is a really high quality eye cream but I would have a hard time paying so much, even though it'd probably last quite a while. If you like eye creams, this is a dream!
I love the texture of this product; it goes on sooooo smoothly and seems to melt into my skin. However, it is REALLY expensive (in my opinion), and I know of other equally effective products on the market. So I am loving this sample and using it sparingly, cuz once it's gone, that will be it.5

METAIRIE, La. (AP) - When Skip Bertman started sobbing, his players couldn't hold back their tears.
Tulane had just beaten LSU 7-1 to advance to the College World Series, ending Bertman's 18-year career as coach of the Tigers.
During that time Bertman posted an 870-330-3 record, took the Tigers to 11 College World Series, won five national titles and was national Coach of the Year six times.
"For 18 years, LSU has been great for baseball in the state of Louisiana, the nation, the Southeastern Conference and the NCAA," Bertman said. "I'll miss these guys and all the players."
The loss Sunday to Tulane in the NCAA Super Regional was tough enough, but knowing that it was Bertman's coaching finale made it all the more difficult.
"It was a somber moment," LSU assistant coach Bill Dailey said. "When he started to break down, other people started to break down because we all understand that this is the end of an era."
Bertman, who now takes over as athletic director at LSU, created a national baseball power and watched it grow into a fan favorite.
The combined attendance from the first two Super Regional games was more than LSU's home attendance in 1984, Bertman's first season as coach. That year, the Tigers drew 22,021 fans in 24 games, an average of 918 spectators a game.
Unlike those days, when Bertman said he gave tickets away to try to attract fans, tickets for the regional were scooped up in hours.
The Super Regional drew 35,268 for three days.

Metropolitan Congregations United (MCU) is an organization of religious congregations that work together to create a better life for all residents. MCU helps citizens, especially lower income families, develop a greater voice in public policy decisions and the allocation of resources.
MCU responded to the explosive situation in Ferguson by organizing Sacred Conversations on Race (+Action), an innovative parish-based program that challenged participants to examine the uncomfortable topic of racism.
Kim, a parishioner at St. Margaret of Scotland in St. Louis, was one of the facilitators. "After what happened in Ferguson, we were all wringing our hands, but talking about racism honestly with others is a starting point for change. It doesn't have to be the elephant in the room," she says.
"Systemic racism is an issue," Kim says. "At my predominantly white parish in an integrated city neighborhood, we all think we're open-minded and informed, but the Sacred Conversations helped us identify 'micro-aggressions', those simple things we say without realizing they're hurtful, offensive, and based on old assumptions."
"The conversation participants came away understanding we're part of a larger system that condones racism, but we can do something about it," she says. "If we have one conversation and speak candidly, it can be fruitful and lead to others. People have been silent or ignorant for so long, I think we didn't realize how much anger was associated with the issue. And if we not addressing racism, it will continue."
"Overall, the experience helped me move from a place where I felt powerless to where I feel I can have an impact. Talking about it with my husband has opened our eyes to other things and changed us both," Kim says.
Kim and other Sacred Conversations participants will join MCU efforts to address fairness in local policing and bias in municipal courts.
The Catholic Campaign for Human Development funds Metropolitan Congregations United projects to create a better life for all residents by helping them become aware of issues that affect them, identify solutions, and develop relationships with policy makers to effect change.
In northern California, mothers banded together in 1996 to form Parent Voices Oakland. A grassroots organization of low-income parents, Parent Voices Oakland advocates for family-friendly policies to advance the well-being of children. Their signature concern is quality, affordable childcare.
Parent Voices Oakland has worked tirelessly to preserve and expand childcare subsidies that allow low-income families achieve economic self-sufficiency. Members have spoken out at the local, state, and federal levels to win lawmakers' support of critical legislation. In a dramatic victory, timely organizing efforts by Parent Voices Oakland helped prevent draconian policy changes that would have permanently eliminated childcare programs for 35,000 children.
The group offers its members interactive training, peer mentorship, and leadership-building opportunities. It now includes fathers, grandparents, and young parents, as well as working mothers.
Parent Voices Oakland's families have multiple challenges. They come from low-income neighborhoods, many receive a childcare subsidy, and some have children with special needs. Some do not speak English well. Still others are dealing with homelessness and struggle daily to keep their jobs and families intact.
In Parent Voices Oakland, they have an organization where people represent themselves. They have achieved credibility. The group helps effect social change by developing new community leaders who advocate for their particular needs and respond to emerging issues.
Parent Voices Oakland helps parents channel their love for their children into collective action for economic and social justice. With secure childcare, parents can work and children can learn.
The Catholic Campaign for Human Development has supported Parent Voices Oakland to engage in parent-led, parent-run community organizing and policy advocacy to expand affordable childcare for low to severely low-income families.
Living Hope's mission is to improve access to services, promote their rights, and gain visibility, independence, mobility, and equality. The members suffered spinal cord injuries as a result of work and car accidents or crimes.
Abundio, a robust 25-year-old, was rear-ended in his truck on the way to work as a painter. When he awoke in a hospital three months later, he could barely move. Abundio's spinal cord injury was so severe, doctors suspected he might be a quadriplegic. With intensive therapy and sheer determination, Abundio now has a degree of independence, gets around town in a manual wheelchair and municipal buses, plays rugby at an adaptive public gym, and is attending classes toward his general education diploma. He hopes to become a translator.
Abundio says a visit from a woman with the Living Hope Wheelchair Association made all the difference. "She brought me medical supplies, and helped me to not be scared about going out in public in a wheelchair. She showed me my life was not over."
Living Hope works other local groups to promote legislative reform to benefit immigrants with disabilities and those who are victims of crime. It also supports efforts to prevent workplace accidents and strengthen workers' rights. At the same time, Living Hope pushes for access to quality medical care and public transportation. Amazingly, Living Hope has no paid, full-time staff.
Living Hope helps its members and their families overcome the isolation imposed by their injuries, immigration status, and poverty. Working closely with Catholic parish partners, Living Hope affirms human dignity and celebrates the resilience of the human spirit in a broken body, as well as the solidarity of families and communities that come together as a result.
The Catholic Campaign for Human Development has supported Living Hope Wheelchair Association to build its organizational structure, provide stipends for trainers, develop leadership, and work for the rights of immigrants with disabilities.
Until a decade ago, more than 2,000 children in Louisiana endured nightmarish conditions when they were imprisoned for mostly non-violent offenses, including acting out in class and petty theft. They experienced physical brutality, emotional abuse, and confinement far from home. Most were between 14 and 21 years old, although Louisiana law allows incarceration for children as young as 10.
In a typical case, a young boy, grieving the death of his caregiver grandmother, stole a car radio. Although it was his first offense, he was remanded to a juvenile facility.
A group of frustrated people, mostly African-Americans, formed a support network for families whose children were entering the justice system. They were stigmatized as "bad parents" and ostracized by their churches and their peers, but the knew they were dealing with broken, troubled kids who needed services, not punishment.
The support group became Families and Friends of Louisiana's Incarcerated Children (FFLIC), which is now a statewide multi-generational membership organization with an impressive track record.
FFLIC joined other organizations in a successful lawsuit challenging conditions of confinement. Their persistence won sweeping reforms to the state juvenile justice laws and an agreement to close a notoriously brutal secure youth facility.
Organizers teach transformative leadership development to parents and use direct action organizing and peer advocacy to strengthen families and communities. They acknowledge that families know what they and their children need.
FFLIC and other local and national allies researched juvenile justice models in other states and advocated for a system that focuses on small, regional facilities that are more home-like and offer rehabilitation. It includes parents as part of the child's treatment and keeps them close enough so they can visit without crossing the state.
With focus and tenacity, FFLIC promotes objective school disciplinary policies, establishes parenting groups, teaches positive behavioral support, promotes teacher training in conflict resolution, and holds schools accountable to provide a quality education to every student.
Today, there are fewer than 400 youth incarcerated in Louisiana. With CCHD's help, FFLIC promotes early intervention to keep children out of the justice system, supports rigorous public defense and advocates shorter sentences.
The Catholic Campaign for Human Development has helped fund the leadership development efforts of Families and Friends of Louisiana's Incarcerated Children. FFLIC aims to keep families at the center of their children's treatment as they navigate the juvenile justice and education systems.
When the Illinois Department of Natural Resources was tasked to write and enforce legislation that would allow fracking to take place in the state, IPA organized a massive campaign to give the public a voice in the rule-writing process. IPA brought over 400 people to public hearings regarding the fracking rules. Illinois law allowed a window of time (over the Christmas holiday) where the public could submit their own opinions about the proposed rules. IPA responded to this opportunity with an online comment campaign. Each day for 50 days, IPA sent suggested topics to members, inviting them to submit comments which expressed their concerns and asked specific questions about the regulations. By the end of the comment period, IPA members had written 36,000 comments! The state agency was required to respond to every single comment, creating a 450 day de facto moratorium on fracking.
Although hydraulic fracturing is now legally permissible in Illinois, IPA continues to organize its efforts to engage community participation in promoting a healthy, clean energy environment. IPA plans to organize around October 14th, the National Day of Action on Climate Change, to advocate for a clean energy power plant in Illinois. Don Carlson, the Executive Director of Illinois People's Action, stated that the support of the CCHD allows "community organizations that are on the ground to make change happen" in the work for justice, equity, and accountability. Illinois People's Action is composed of 40 faith-based members groups whose leaders "each bring their own lens but everyone is on the same page," that God made the earth to be enjoyed by all and preserved for all.
Educational bilingual programs offered at the Catholic Multicultural Center allow families to explore environmental topics and improve public health. To address local water pollution concerns, CMC community members planned, designed, and installed a rain garden to catch run-off water on CMC's property, which helps to keep a popular fishing creek clean. An artist who transforms garbage into works of art led a recycling project where community members picked up discarded plastic water bottles, filled them with colored water, and decorated a local park next to a boathouse. Bike Night, hosted by the CMC, encourages bicycle riding as a lifestyle choice beneficial for health and the environment.
Another CMC initiative is Culinary Creations Catering (CCC). This program gives returning citizens and other vulnerable people an opportunity to engage in meaningful work and earn a livable wage. Culinary Creations Catering participates in the center's care for creation movement by using fresh, local produce from the CMC's parish garden partnership. In addition to catering, CCC staff maintain the garden and learn how to can and make preserves from the garden produce.
Andy Russell states that the support of the Catholic Campaign for Human Development has allowed Culinary Creation Catering to reach the next level, build more catering relationships, and provide more job opportunities.
United Workers' fight for healthy and sustainable community policies around energy and waste has led to other environmental endeavors. The organization hopes to bring in Zero Waste companies, which re-use waste materials to create more green jobs in Baltimore. One prospective company is a paper mill recycling company that would bring in more than 120 livable wage jobs and provide an in-house day care facility. Two other potential companies work to deconstruct discarded material such as mattresses or E-waste, and resell parts, effectively minimizing the waste stream. United Workers is in dialogue with the Department of Planning and the Baltimore Development Corporation about vacant land that is zoned industrial for these projects.
Another environmental initiative that United Workers hopes to realize is a solar panel farm where communities can own the land and solar panels collectively. United Workers is in conversation with the city's Department of Energy to see if solar panels can be placed in low-income communities where residents could either get a dividend at the year's end or defray costs on energy bills.
Todd Cherkis, the lead organizer, refers to United Workers as a leadership development organization. United Workers' core curriculum focuses on poverty awareness, human rights, economics, and power dynamics. This is augmented by Bible studies where members reflect on Biblical texts and how the faithful are called to address the needs of the poor and vulnerable to move towards a just society. United Workers recently led a group study on Pope Francis' encyclical Laudato Si'.
According to Todd Cherkis, United Workers values its long relationship with CCHD, stating, "We really appreciate CCHD's long-term vision and patience that allows us to focus on leadership development. Social change takes time. CCHD puts their faith in what we're doing and that's encouraging to us and to our members to continue to build."
The gardens are among the palpable signs that people care about their community and are working together to make it a safe, healthy, viable place for families. Two groups, Neighborhood Foods and its parent organization, Urban Tree Connection, were formed to address a low-income community's persistent demand to revitalize abandoned lots and repurpose them as food production gardens. In addition, they sought to find an ethically responsible and economically viable way to help the community access fresh, healthy and affordable food. As part of the process, they wanted to create meaningful local jobs and training opportunities.
Lisa, a grandmother who grew up in the neighborhood, said the happy safe place of her childhood spiraled into decline when drug dealers and other unsavory characters took over. Ten years ago, she joined a small group of residents working to reclaim the community for the honest, hard-working people who call it home. "We're bringing childhood back to this neighborhood," she said.
With tenacity and persistence, Urban Tree Connection transformed one lot after another into productive gardens, bursting with kale, peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes. The crown jewel is a three-quarter acre farm surrounded by 60 houses. Youth are employed to work the land and harvest the bounty. Residents can buy the organic produce at a subsidized weekly market at the entrance to the farm. Neighborhood Foods sells the abundance to farmers' markets and high-end restaurants.
The neighborhood is a documented food desert, with no grocery store access to fresh produce. People rely on processed foods and there is a resultant high rate of obesity, diabetes and hypertension. But the fresh foods have a measurable health effect, and growing and preparing the produce has also brought the community together as a strong, energized group. "There's a camaraderie and closeness again in the neighborhood and that's a wonderful thing about the co-op," Lisa said.
And, who knew that fresh vegetables are an intergenerational conversation starter? In introducing their children and grandchildren to the foods of their youth, older residents also have a great opportunity to share family stories and farming expertise.
The Catholic Campaign for Human Development has supported the community-building work of the Urban Tree Connection and its newest venture, the Neighborhood Foods cooperative.
Yudith manages the gas station where her husband works. Their jobs support their small family and give them hope. She is also an active member of Somos Un Pueblo Unido (Somos) a group that organizes immigrants and low-wage workers in New Mexico to promote equality, economic and educational opportunities, civil rights, and worker justice.
Yudith says the governor of her state regularly introduces legislation to repeal an established law that allows undocumented immigrants to apply for driver's licenses. "Every year, she tries to cancel the law, and our group goes to the capitol to speak with senators and representatives and carry signs and petitions," she says. So far, the law remains intact.
Somos has trained members in effective organizing, and mobilized a strong base of supporters and partners, including the New Mexico Conference of Catholic Bishops and allies in the state legislature.
It advocates humane immigration policies through legislative activism and neighborhood-based courses on civil rights and due process. Founded in 1995, Somos is the only statewide community-based, immigrant-led organization actively committed to preparing immigrant leaders to promote worker and racial justice.
"All people have the same rights under God. We want the same opportunities in our communities," Yudith explains. "Look, we are families. We're good people. We work all the time, save money and care for our kids."
The Catholic Campaign for Human Development has supported the community-organizing and advocacy work of Somos Un Pueblo Unido through local and national grants.
Tenants to Homeowners (TTH) serves low-income residents in Lawrence, Kansas by providing safe, accessible and energy efficient housing. TTH was formed in 1992 to address affordable housing issues in their community. In 2005, TTH launched the Lawrence Community Housing Trust (LCHT) Program that rehabilitates old homes and builds new homes. Several community partners are involved that help TTH build affordable and energy efficient homes, such as two community owned financial institutions, Capitol Federal Savings and Loan and Truity Credit Union. They provide prime rate loans for a lower credit score than traditional FHA loans, service the loans at one of their local offices in-house, and waive the traditional home loan application fee for program participants. The city of Lawrence also partners with TTH to provide free first time home buying classes as well as other services.
When energy costs began to rise, TTH recognized that investing in energy efficient homes was crucial. TTH builds new homes that are Energy Star 3 certified, the highest energy star rating. Robert Baker, resource development director, describes how rising utility costs can escalate quickly and impact affordability. TTH knew it was important to invest in Energy Star buildings. As a result, they were the first certified Energy Star builder in Lawrence, Kansas. The homes contribute to long-term affordability and reduce energy costs by approximately $150 per month. In addition, construction site waste is also recycled while homes are being built. Both residents and the quality of the environment benefit from TTH's energy efficient homes, which reduce energy use and improve affordability.
Baker says that the support of CCHD has, "helped us give good news to the poor." TTH successfully provides home ownership security, and with assistance from TTH, many people are able to purchase homes. TTH displays how a community can come together to help tenants become homeowners while also focusing on the sustainability and environmental impact of homes.

Area 51 is set in the U.S. government's most top-secret and secure facility located in the Nevada desert. Players take on the role of Lt. Nick Cross, a hazardous biological waste specialist sent to investigate. During his investigation, Lt. Cross stumbles across alien creatures and becomes infected with a biological mutagen that eventually transforms him into something not quite human. To save the earth and himself, Lt. Cross must fight to solve the enigma of Area 51.
Area 51 takes the player through eight massive levels within a clandestine government complex. Combining intense combat, exploration, adventure, discovery, and puzzle solving, the game blends graphic violence with science fiction. As Lt. Cross, the player will discover secret areas and items, including the answers to this rumored government conspiracy.
Stan Winston, renowned creature designer, contributed to Area 51's intrigue by creating artwork of some of the disturbing alien characters and mutations featured in the game. For more than 30 years Stan Winston has developed characters, creatures and monsters for motion pictures and television. The four-time Academy Award winner is responsible for designing many of the most enduring creatures of the big screen, including the dinosaurs of "Jurassic Park," the extraterrestrial monstrosities of "Aliens" and the fanciful character of "Edward Scissorhands." Nominated for an Academy Award for "A.I.," Stan Winston worked on the newly released "T3" starring Arnold Schwarzenegger

Area 51
Area 51, the codename of the secret military facility Dry Groom Lake in the Nevada desert, has been a mystery for several decades already and we still don't know anything about it. Did a UFO really go down near Roswell in 1947? Are the American authorities covering it up or is everything about Area 51 […]

British mothers turning too busy to be with kids?
By IANS - LONDON
Published: 18th December 2012 10:50 AM
Last Updated: 19th December 2012 09:14 AM
The stay-at-home mother is fast becoming consigned to history, at least the latest census figures of Britain appear to be indicating so.
Returns showed there are 300,000 fewer than officials had previously estimated, with those who devote their lives to bring up families now reduced to a tiny minority. Fewer than one in 10 women of working age are stay-at-home mothers, Daily Mail reported.
The prevailing scenario follows a decade in which governments urged mothers to take jobs on the grounds that working is the route to fulfilment for women and that families with two incomes are much less likely to fall into poverty.
Critics, however, are concerned about the mothers who might prefer to be with their families, and the impact on increasing numbers of toddlers who spend long hours in day care.
The 2011 census results found there were 1,598,000 women who were not working as they were looking after their home and family - 298,000 fewer than estimates from the Office for National Statistics.
In the 1970s, when the term "housewife" was still popular to describe the lives of millions of mothers, the great majority of women with young families stayed at home.
Two decades ago, when higher career expectations combined with fast-rising house prices pushed increasing numbers of mothers into the labour market, 17 percent of women were estimated to be stay-at-home mothers.
That fell to 12 percent by 2002 and has now dropped below 10 percent in Britain.

what a waste of time and money for long term holders. I'm glad I'm just a trader
bob, it looks like around half of that loss was from restructuring & impairment charges. The resulting operating loss was better than Q3 last year. They are cutting SG&A costs, and the gross margin is up a bit. That said, I hope to see more improvement going forward. It looks as if their fiscal Q3 may be their lowest due to seasonality - but I haven't checked back to see for sure.
For a possible plus, read my next post.

Tory Burch Lounge for Mother's Day at Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach
Mother's Day is just around the corner, and hotels are getting creative with special packages to honor moms. One of the best we've seen is at the Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach, where they're opening a Tory Burch Lounge in the hotel's Living Room. While sipping complimentary Prosecco cocktails, moms can browse the Summer 2011 collection (from tunics to trendy accessories) before getting spoiled with mini treatments in The Spa and complimentary gifts from the Amala all-organic luxury cosmetic line. Last but not least: a sumptuous Mother's Day Brunch with a gourmet buffet that's guaranteed to tempt the taste buds (a lot more than eggs benedict!) From noon until 6 pm, the brunch costs $100 per person, and $30 per child aged 5-12.

Damn that's foul
everyone has probably heard about this shirt that was made after Renaissance Man did what he did so I decided to go and place an order. they also do Mets stuffs but I never heard of them until now so I looked them up and one of the workers working there looks nerdy but cute imo so I'm happy my money is going toward that. the shirt costs 25$ total shipping so I am looking forward to getting it and will post a photo when it arrives. did any other peeps here order one of these?
image courtesy amareisreal
image courtesy amareisreal
I was watching Boomer and Carton and Carton had one on, I was ROTFL the whole time
I just got a email from paypal with tracking number so hopefully I will get this in time for Game 4 and wear it with pride!
image courtesy amareisreal
Capitalism at it's worse. Well at least he knew he was going to be "The Marked Man" for a while...according to his own T-shirt in yesterday's press conference...I do hope he play in game 4 thou....just hope he doesn't bust them open trying to dunk or something...
damn now that I think about it...his defense might be even worst. No blocks no steals...and the handle.....sh!t,forget about It...
I'd like to know what these reports mean that his hand was "hanging off." I mean I get the impression that it's somewhat of an exaggeration, but I've also read that he had to have surgery to repair some muscle damage, so I'm not sure...
Im going to get that shirt.
Then im gonna sit in the front row wearing that **** and heckle amare.
I think the Amare T shirt you ordered is very funny, and perfectly good for a laugh.
I haven't bought either T shirt yet. But I wouldn't say a Jeremy Lin T shirt is better than an Amare T shirt if I bought one (JL T shirt).
sell it now before he is traded
"The Knicks are back" - Amare
alright so here are the first in hand pics of this, I just got it and unpacked it so its still folded I didnt wash it yet. but let me tell you its the best 25$ I spent this year the shirt is super soft like a babys powered arse and the colors are very Knicks accurate I guess because they do so much Mets stuffs to
this is the tagging never heard of this company before
I dont know what kind of printed graphics they call this but its very sticky and tacky and doesnt seem like the garbage that will crack when washed repeatedly
image courtesy amareisreal
earlier today I went back to the website and notice they changed there description to announce the first batch sold out and they are doing a very limited second batch run of about 100 more shirts and then these will be sold out for good so peeps here who want one better act quick. this really is going to be a valuable collectors item one day.
image courtesy amareisreal
So let me get this straight.
It's cool, even funny, for someone to profit off of Amar'e's stupidity...but not cool for Amar'e to profit off of making shirts with the logos of other teams in the league?
Good to know.

I just found out my 13 year old daughter is cutting herself. Should I check her body to see if she is still cutting?
I recently found out (she told me) that my daughter is cutting herself. I am trying to respect her wishes as much as possible and still get us help and I have an appointment on Jan 4 for us to start the process but should I or should I absolutely not insist that she show me if she is still cutting or not. I am so afraid that I am going to do something that will cause more harm than good. I don't want her to think I don't trust her but honestly, I don't trust her. Please someone help me.

Multifactor productivity in private business, 2008
May 07, 2009
In the private business sector, multifactor productivity—output per combined units of labor and capital inputs—rose 1.2 percent in 2008. The multifactor productivity gain in 2008 reflected a 0.8-percent increase in output and a 0.3-percent decrease in the combined inputs of capital and labor.
The increase in multifactor productivity in the private business sector for 2008 was the largest annual rate of growth since 2005.
Capital services grew 2.9 percent in 2008. Labor input posted a decrease of 1.9 percent, as both hours worked and labor composition fell. Labor input reflects the change in hours at work adjusted for the effects of changing labor composition. The decrease of labor input was due to a decrease in hours at work of 1.9 percent and a decrease in labor composition of 0.1 percent. The capital-labor ratio (capital services per hour of all persons) increased by 4.9 percent.
These data are from the Multifactor Productivity program. Productivity data are subject to revision. To learn more, see "Preliminary Multifactor Productivity Trends, 2008," news release USDL 09-480 (PDF) (HTML). A change in multifactor productivity reflects the change in output that cannot be accounted for by the change in combined inputs of labor and capital.

Stuff you missed: Takin' it to the Streets 2013
This past weekend, while in Chicago, I had the pleasure of hanging out at the Takin' It to the Streets Urban International Festival. The Inner-City Muslim Action Network (IMAN) has been holding this festival for 15 years now. This well-oiled festival is a celebration of the Muslim community and culture through art, music, food and prayer, just to name a few.
The most beautiful thing about the festival was the ambience. It was so peaceful and serene. There were several races and religions represented throughout. You could hear the laughter of the children in the play area while watching others pray quietly in the prayer area. There was also a skate park and a grafitti area. Finally, there was the main stage that featured speakers and several musicians all day -- the likes of the Hypnotic Brass Band, Brother Ali and headliner Talib Kweli. Originally Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) was supposed to perform with Talib together as Black Star. Unfortunately Yasiin didn't make the show. Regardless, The show went on without a hitch. Check out some pics below taken by...me. »Read Full Blog Post

Lou Reed dies at 71, was lead singer of Velvet Underground
New York — Lou Reed, the great punk poet of rock 'n' roll who profoundly influenced generations of musicians as leader of the Velvet Underground and remained a vital solo performer for decades after, died Sunday. He was 71.
Reed died in Southampton, N.Y., of an ailment related to his recent liver transplant, according to his literary agent, Andrew Wylie, who added that Reed had been in frail health for months. Reed shared a home in Southampton with his wife and fellow musician, Laurie Anderson, whom he married in 2008. »Read Full Article(20)
Bel Canto Chorus, MSO join for night of sacred music

Chris Tomlin shows his passion for Christian music
Chris Tomlin did the old "how many first timers? how many veterans?" audience poll at the start of his Milwaukee Theatre show Saturday night. Not surprisingly, the majority of cheers in the largely full theater were from the newbies. Tomlin's "Burning Lights," released in January, was just the fourth contemporary Christian music album ever to top the Billboard charts.
What's interesting is that, unlike fellow chart-topping Christian artist TobyMac, Tomlin went No. 1 while being far more explicit about God. Saturday's concert was even halted for a 40-minute sermon by Tomlin's pastor (and the head of his record label) Louie Giglio. »Read Full Article(4)

The question I think you are asking is:
Why is society not flexible enough to allow the people it is trying to serve to do everything they want to do?
My answer to that begins in the courts. The courts are where people who are fighting tend to go to settle their differences. In this world, more people fight with each other than get along with each other. That means society has to come up with a way to manage the fact that it is asked to play a role in settling those differences. The burden that management task places on society is so large than society responds to that burden by placing restrictions on what it's people can do. Those restrictions attempt to limit the fighting that can happen, therefore the burden society must shoulder as it participates in the settlement of those disputes.
The side effect of those restrictions is limited freedoms. Stepping out of theory and getting practical, there are a lot of grey areas in those restrictions that can be legally and reasonable used by individuals to create the flexibility and opportunities they seek. I would say the grey areas between contract law and institutional restrictions is the place to go to find those opportunities.

One immediately noticeable revision is the expansion of The Bigs' five-star ability system for players' attributes; The Bigs 2 adds a sixth star, which designates "legendary" abilities. That means top-tier studs like Ichiro Suzuki (legendary arm), Prince Fielder (legendary power), or Jose Reyes (legendary speed) have extra oomph added to their best abilities -- it's not quite as good as using Turbo, but it's pretty darn close.
Even better, though, is the new power-up system. A "power-up" in a baseball game might lead you to expect one-off chances to pound a ball 500 feet or make a stunning catch, but in Bigs 2, developer Blue Castle goes beyond that by giving certain characters buffs that can positively effect the entire team. Take the Chicago Cubs speedy slugger Alfonso Soriano: If Soriano's patrolling left field for your club, every other outfielder on your team gets a +1 to speed (for defensive and offensive purposes). And the system offers plenty of other creative uses. Yankees shortstop "Mr. Clutch" Derek Jeter gets a +2 to every category when his team's losing, Cubs 3B Aramis Ramirez gives every infielder playing alongside him +3 arm strength. Some pitchers get more turbo for throwing strikes than others. Some batters offer the player behind them +1 in all hitting categories.
The Bigs franchise's largest strength is that it's fun and arcadey, but it's still baseball, and the original's balance between those two standards extends to its sequel. Take a batter's "wheelhouse," for example. While it's basically a slugger's hot zone (where he has the greatest chance of hitting a home run), if you risk throwing a pitch into that glowing red zone and the batter misses, two things happen: You earn more Turbo for the pitch you just threw, and that batter's wheelhouse shrinks...for the rest of the game. So, as a pitcher early in the game, do you attack the wheelhouse to shrink it (but risk giving up a big fly), or do you avoid it all game long? It's a fun dilemma to face every single at-bat.
As I mentioned earlier, Bigs 2's additions extend beyond minor gameplay tweaks. For one thing, Blue Castle did not limit the game's player roster to just 2009; you'll find a bevy of legends, from glovesmiths Brooks Robinson (3B, Baltimore Orioles) and Ryne Sandberg (2B, Chicago Cubs), to master batsmen Reggie Jackson (OF, New York Yankees) and Dave Winfield (OF, San Diego Padres), and even out-and-out Hall of Famers like color-barrier breaker Jackie Robinson and George Herman Ruth, known to a few as "Babe." And you can expect the career mode to keep your interest for quite a while as you work to accrue Hall of Fame votes. Busting through varied mini-game challenges offers a quick change of pace and keeps things fresh (one speed minigame will have you hustling over Wrigley Field's surrounding rooftops).
The original version of The Bigs was surprisingly good, but even with high expectations, most fans probably couldn't have anticipated the fresh surprises that will be packed into this sequel. The fun-factor -- already high two years ago -- is significantly bulked up, even while the players -- a response to the steroid era? -- have slimmed down.

I'm looking forward to this one. And Prince Fielder is easily 100 pounds heavier than what his image looks like in this game.

Jesus sings easy from my heart
Sweet from my soul
Jesus falls softer on my ear
Than others I know
Inscribed across my dark places
Or carved forever in stone
He seems to be most at home
Written deep in me
Jesus in neon or written across the skies
Sung out in praises--Whispered in lullabys
One thing we agree on
No other name can bring such calm
No other one more worthy to be sung
On thru the ages faces have come and gone
Of men of power--Doers of right and wrong
Not much eternal--Not much but cloudy memories
Oh but not so with Jesus
His name and his power
Lives on in you and me

London - Proteas seamer Vernon Philander wasted little time in justifying Somerset's decision to sign him for the early part of the English season, taking just three balls to grab a wicket on Thursday.
Philander had a wicket in his first over of a rain delayed opening day of the English County Championship season and by stumps had taken three for 21 in 12 overs as Somerset reduced Middlesex to 118 for four in a First Division clash at Taunton.
Fortunately for the visitors, former Kent batsman Joe Denly was 64 not out on his Middlesex debut.
Somerset are desperate to win a maiden Championship title after being edged out by Lancashire last term and the recruitment of Philander looks like it could give them a valuable early season boost.
The 26-year-old, who has taken an impressive 51 wickets in just seven Tests, had Sam Robson caught behind for a duck and then dismissed Dawid Malan, lbw for 12.
All the while Philander was proving difficult to get away and Middlesex captain Neil Dexter became his third wicket of the innings, bowled for eight off a ball that kept low.

Vt. officials urge adults to get vaccinated
BURLINGTON — Vermont health officials are urging adults to get a new vaccine for whooping cough as the state deals with an outbreak of the disease.
More than 500 people have been affected by whooping cough or pertussis this year. That's 10 times the amount reported by the end of 2011.
More than 20 babies younger than a year have had the disease and six infants have had to be hospitalized.
The Health Department is recommending that anyone over 19 get a Tdap vaccine, which is a booster against tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis, to help prevent the spread of the disease.
The Health Department will be holding free vaccination clinics next Wednesday at its 12 local district offices around the state for Vermonters who can't get to their doctor for a shot.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER Goalie Emily Bashara stopped 44 shots but the Green Knights still had a field day...

All will be forgiven next year though when they bring out the excellent Tatsunoko vs Capcom and Monster Hunter Tri. Those games show that Capcom does still care and are still a top quality developer.
Star Fox was pretty revolutionary when it comes to rail shooters, so it is a shame that we haven't seen or even heard of a Star Fox Wii yet.
There is a consolation though Dr M and one that might get you actually enjoying a rail shooter. Next year sees the release of Sin & Punishment 2, a rail shooter but with character movement (like Star Fox). While the other rail shooters are worth a rental, I believe that this one will be a keeper.
