text: The greatest conspiracy on earth DARKSTAR0001 posted:5/11/2012 7:25:58 PM The Greatest Conspiracy on Earth Chapter 2 Tensions have escalated in the cell that the United States government has created around me; cell is a term used for an operating government intelligence gather group. The exact use of this intelligence can only be speculated. Some things could be mentioned but this could be an act of treason. So for now just use your imagination. As mentioned in the first document, aliens, me and GOD. The assholes that I call them have become more aggressive towards me. They have resorted to psychological devices. These devices use sound and cerebral techniques to alter my surroundings, which can be discomforting, but fuck them anyway. Also, the hybrids on earth, which mask themselves in a matrix, are coordinating with the pure bloods in an all-out attempt to persuade me into an agreement of sorts. The Matrix I believe is similar to the matrix in the movie LIVE, which stars Rowdy Rodney Piper. This agreement would be an acceptance of their right to dominate earth and its people. I will not cooperate with them! I know of other Alien's that have better intentions towards us and they are near or present now and more are coming. This is the reasoning behind this assault. I believe the new comers attacked the assholes. Ex. Lake Michigan, the Green Fog. This probably hid the craft at the bottom of Lake Michigan. The other one was from god; Ex. Mass corona ejection from the sun melted a craft near Venus. After these events their where two attempts to take my life, I survived only because I am super natural and god protected me. They keep repeating to me, listen, and I will not listen to the assholes, because they are planet takers. I only listen to my inner voice or conscience. May GOD bless us and good luck!

Ten speakers from various disciplines presented current medical trends and scientific developments on the topic of Graves' Orbitopathy (GO), and thus covered a broad range of specialised topics. The goal of the event, which was certified by the medical association, was, among other things, to raise awareness of the clinical and economic importance of GO, to provide a practical representation of current therapeutic and diagnostic concepts and to present the immunohistological and genetic background of the illness.
The 2nd International Workshop on Graves' Orbitopathy was divided into three thematic blocks: 1. Introduction to the genetics and immunology of GO, 2. Importance of diagnostic procedures and the economic influence of GO, 3. Therapeutic possibilities for the treatment of GO. Under the scientific leadership of Prof. George J. Kahaly (Gutenberg University Medical Center, Mainz), the prominent lecturers not only reported from the perspective of their disciplines, but also made themselves available afterwards to answer the questions of the participants. This provided the guests with an outstanding platform to critically challenge and discuss the lectures.
The final highlight was the presentation of a selected clinical case. Diagnostic and therapeutic questions were to be answered in a multiple choice test using a TED system. Each participant could test the state of his/her current knowledge here. At the same time, the poll results once again provided an interesting discussion platform.
In addition to the transfer of knowledge concerning current medical and scientific findings, the interdisciplinary exchange of views was also of great importance. The participants' extremely positive feedback on the content, organisation and mood confirms that the general expectations of the expert public at the International Workshop were exceeded. This forum once again made very clear that cooperation and the exchange of knowledge over boundaries can expand horizons, alter viewpoints and encourage the development of new ideas.
An international European committee of experts made the Thyroid Forum an occasion for a meeting to discuss the benefits of the anti-Tg as a tumour marker and formulate recommendations for routine application. This group of experts included representatives from industry (Thermo Scientific Biomarkers), key opinion leaders from the field of thyroid cancer and the managing director of the Bundesverband Schilddrüsenkrebs (Federal Association for Thyroid Cancer). The participants also agreed to organise additional conferences. The next meeting is planned for 2012 at the conference of the European Thyroid Association in Pisa.

Sigma Alpha Epsilon Legacy Scholarship
The Phi Kappa Iota/SAE Foundation, hereafter referred to as the SAE Foundation, came into existence in early 2001 after the sale of the SAE house to the University. The Foundation was set up with two primary goals in mind. First, to preserve the capital from the sale of the house so that should conditions in the future warrant a return of the Fraternity to campus, resources would be available to buy, build or at least put a significant down payment on a new fraternity house. Secondly, the excess interest from the fund would be used to help descendants of active fraternity members with tuition costs at USU.

Miller Low Life
Meet Yovani Gallardo
The ace pitcher of the Milwaukee Brewers. Gallardo has been a key component of the Milwaukee pitching staff for the last two years. He has been even more of a cornerstone now that Ben Sheets and CC Sabathia are no longer with the club. In Wednesday's game Gallardo was just nasty. Picking up his third win of the year he went 8 full innings only giving up two hits to the Bucs.
On the other hand Ian Snell to the mound for Pittsburgh. 7 full innings, 5 hits and one earned run was Snell's stat line for the night. Any pitcher would take those numbers, especially Snell. The one thing that was dicouraging for Snell was how the one run was given up.
Meet Yovani Gallardo
Yes this is the same Yovani. The same Yovani Brewers fans all know and love, Pirates fans, not so much. Not only did he embarass Bucco batters with his slew of pitches, he also embarasses Ian Snell. Gallardo jacked a 7th inning dinger over the left field fence. Not only did the pitcher belt the homerun, he also had the only RBI of the game. Thats right folks the Pirates lost this one 1-0. Hard to swallow indeed.
Don't worry Ian, it happens to the best of us.
It just stinks that this could have been a great confidence booster to not only Ian, but the rest of the club. We were swept by the Brew Crew, the first occurance that we've had to suffer through all year. The losing streak alos continued. The Pirates have now lost 18th straight against the Brewers. No doubt about it they are a good team. Their offense is stellar and their pitching is overachieveing. Right now both the Bucs and Brew Crew stand at 11-10 on the year, 2nd place in the NL Central.
Pittsburgh finished their road trip 2-4. Not too bad considering it faced decent competition and historically the team lays an egg on roadstands early in the year. Returning to PNC Park this weekend, the Pirates hope to right their ship. With another NL Central opponent, the Reds, Pittsburgh will have the opportunity to catch up with the Cardinals for the Central lead.

Sorry about the sweep. And to be fair, it's only 18 in a row at Miller Park. It's 13 in a row overall. PNC Park used to be the bane of the Brewers existence. It's that other ballpark in Pennsylvania that's been giving them trouble lately. I'm hoping come Monday that the winning streak continues, but since we're all tied up for 2nd place right now, may the best team win.
Matt,In response to the question you asked on my blog: Target Field is about a mile and a half north of the Metrodome on 5th St. I think the Twins' website has directions, but it isn't really that hard to find. Have fun on your trip :)-Erinhttp://plunking-gomez.mlblogs.com
The bad game Maholm had really killed me for fantasy points.
Its surprising too considering how good his pitching has been as of late.
I still think the Pirates have a long fight ahead. Its definitely not even close to over for Pitt
1. Gallardo was sick against us, too…we got 1 run off the Brewers that game and it was AFTER he left…haha
2. I remember when Santana gave up a Grand Slam to King Felix last year…not cool.
Anyway, hang in there! Go Bucs…
Should be a great series this weekend. Both clubs are off to a good start this year.Russhttp://wight4256.mlblogs.com
That is pretty cool though about a pitcher pretty much winning the game all by himself. Sorry y'all got swept. I know the feeling. haha It's actually not funny. At all.
How about those Cardinals though?😉
Oh and this is interesting… I was looking at the standings this morning (I don't know why, it's just sad) and I noticed that the difference between first and last in the AL Central is the same as the distance between first and second in the NL Central. AL Central sucks. Y'all would be tied for first in the AL Central I believe if that helps.🙂
A pitcher's dual. Literally. One pitcher gets the only run of the game on a homer. I love it!

With the end of the fiscal year looming on Sept. 30, the commissioners court called a special meeting for Friday at 11 a.m. to sort out what occurred.
Commissioner Stanley Tuttle said any money left over from the 2011-2012 budget was supposed to go back into dwindling reserves.
"This is like a slap in the face to every one of us," he told the three other commissioners.
The commissioner said they had a plan to store up the reserves.
"At this rate, we're never going to do it," Tuttle said.
"Two weeks ago everybody was patting each other on the back for not spending everything in the budget... then we show up today and have 30 line-item transfers."
Tuttle wanted to know who authorized the transfers.
Commissioner Gary Bourland said the county judge did.
"He is over animal control," Bourland said.
County Judge Rene Mascorro was absent from the meeting so Bourland presided.
What will happen if the commissioners refused to approve the transfers, Tuttle asked Bob McGuill, county attorney.
"If they are not approved, then it will stay as is," McGuill said. "The money will go into next year's reserves."
Tuttle said the two pickups are already in service and being driven around.
"This is a thorn in my side," Tuttle said.
The commissioner said a lot of equipment was needed in his precinct.
"I found a belly dump for $27,000 but you didn't see me calling the auditor and saying, 'find the money to pay for it,'" Tuttle said.
Sitting in for the auditor, who was also absent from the meeting, Linda Holder told the court the money may have been "cleared out of everybody's budget."
"This is the first I've heard of it," said Elaine Henning, county treasurer.
Bourland said the process is backward. Approval for line-item transfers should be made first, not after the money is spent, he said.
The court tabled all the line-item transfers and all bills associated with the line item transfers until Friday at 11 a.m.
Tuttle said the court needed to "get the auditor in here to answer questions."
In Elderly Services matters, Frances Herring and Jimmy Ramirez pleaded with the commissioner court to reconsider the transportation policy that excludes them from riding in county-owned vehicles. As of Oct. 1, they will be excluded from county transportation.
Herring's and Ramirez's agenda item was the only one of 16 other items that was not listed for "action."
"This court does not regulate those procedures," Bourland said.
The procedures are regulated by Mascorro and Edith Collins, according to the commissioner.
Only Commissioner Ann Lopez questioned Collins on the exclusion of three dialysis patients at the end of this month.
"I'm trying to follow up on (Miss Herring's) observation that other people have to be taken on a regular basis, so why can't they continue being a part of the ridership - why are they being excluded," Lopez asked.
Collins said Herring has been taken 69 times.
"This is not a three or four month process, it for a lifetime... the incidence is for the rest of their lives," Lopez said.
Collins said they should transfer to a facility where LeFleur, which provides transportation for Medicaid patients, operates.
However, Herring told the court that her doctor will not release her to a facility without a critical care facility nearby, ruling out the facilities suggested by Collins.
However, Herring said that the county vehicle usually has three or four other riders.
"I pay every month for the transportation," Herring said.
Ramirez spoke in behalf of his wife Rita who also requires dialysis. He said she has a weak heart and has had bypass surgery, she has lost the sight in one eye and has poor vision in the other and is frail.
He is 69 with poor vision. Other family members work out of town or have small children and jobs.
Ramirez said his wife rode with a service for a procedure in Corpus Christi and the return trip took two hours because the vehicle went through Sinton to Skidmore to Beeville and finally to Refugio. Ramirez said she was tired and needed to rest, like all patients following dialysis.
"I ask from the bottom of my heart for you to take the ladies... if you don't, they'll die," Ramirez said. "Please do not turn your backs on them. They've lived here all their lives... they deserve better. People's lives are a whole lot more important than money."
Although only three dialysis patients currently use the county's transportation system, Collins said other dialysis patients may want to ride in the future.
"Are you willing to pay that kind of money," Collins asked. "Once you open the gate, there's no stopping it."
In a letter, Herring pointed out what she believes is mismanagement by Elderly Services.
"Ms. Collins has the drivers drop people off in Victoria and then they drive back to Refugio, then they have to turn around and come right back to Victoria," Herring said. "The drivers are making 12 trips a week when they could be making only six. She's wasting the county's money and wearing out the taxpayer's cars and blaming us for it."
In personal matters, the court refused to take action on a request from Sheriff Robert Bolcik to pay $1,124 to Deborah Blaschke, the jail records management clerk, who also handles Stone Garden and Border Star accounting. The sheriff told the court that the money was budgeted and approved for the fiscal year that's about to end.
"If it was approved last year, why was there never a change made to her salary," Commissioner Rod Bernal asked.
"That would be a question to the treasurer's office," Bolcik said.
"Nobody told me she is getting an increase so I went by the salary schedule," said Elaine Henning, county treasurer.
The additional money would put the salary above a chief deputy's salary of $34,790, Henning said.
"Elaine is paid an insurance stipend," Bolcik said. "Why wasn't it on the salary schedule?"
Bolcik said every year he tries to give money back from his budget and only wants to see an employee compensated for the work she has done.
Commissioner Ann Lopez made a motion to pay Blaschke but the motion died for lack of a second.
In other personnel matters, Tuttle told the court he asked the auditor's office and the treasurer's office to take care of a matter involving paying payroll withholding for contract workers who were deemed ineligible to have a contract status.
"I've asked numerous times - a dozen times to get that done," Tuttle said.
Bourland said that the county's contract workers did not fit the criteria to be contract workers because they do not furnish their own vehicles and tools.
Henning said, "Linda (Holder) got that to me yesterday."
"As long as we get it done before the end of the year... make sure it gets done," Tuttle said.
"The reports may have to go back to October last year," Henning said.
Henning was appointed treasurer last month to fill the term of Louise Aduddell.
The commissioners also:
•Acknowledged the employment in the treasurer's office effective Oct. 1 of Cindy Henderson as chief deputy at a salary of $34,790 per year; and Rita P. Trojcak as deputy clerk at a salary of $30,417 per year.
• Approved the notary bond for Joanna Hill in the sheriff's office.
• Approved a request from Teak Midstream Utility, LP for a road crossing permit for a pipeline under Schirmer Road.
• Approved a request from Southcross CCNG Transmission, Ltd. for a road crossing permit for a pipeline under Toland Road.
• Approved a request from TexStar Midstream Utility, LP for a road crossing permit for a pipeline under Dump Grounds Road.
• Postponed action on publication of a county government brochure until January.
• Approved a request from Louis Willeke to use tables from the community center for the annual health fair set for Wednesday, Oct. 24.
• Approved the final draft, with minor changes, of the Refugio County Personnel Policy Manual.
• Approved the interim access plan submitted by Gary R. Henry, airport manager, for the Rooke Airpark which will be submitted to TxDOT and the FAA for review.
• Voted against lifting the burn ban.

What Was ESPN Thinking!?!
Here's an idea for the "worldwide leader" in sports: don't ever, ever, EVER book Justin Timberlake to host your ESPY Awards show again. Do it, and you're doomed to be the laughingstock of cable, get verbally blasted by nerdy bloggers like myself, and possibly lose your entire viewing audience all together.
Because what's worse than having a whiny R&B singin' teeny boppin' tenor host a major sports awards show? How about having a whiny R&B singin' teeny boppin' tenor host a major sports awards show while trying way too hard.
Look, personally, I have nothing against Justin Timberlake. I like some of his music. Love the Madonna duet. Laughed my tail off with the D**k in a Box song. All was well in Timberlake Town… until he took this gig hosting the ESPY Awards and broke new ground on being unbearably weird.
Forcing lines, being noticeably uncomfortable, reading scripted jokes without any knack of timing, being extremely awkward… and this was just in the first five minutes. I hung in there hoping, praying that he would reconcile his obvious out-of-touchness with sports in general by being genuinely charming or, god forbid, humble in his deliveries.
But no. Instead, he sang an 8 minute over-the-top song (that su<ked by the way) entitled "I Love Sports" which was supposed to show us everyday sport-lovin' joes that indeed, Mr. Timberlake does love sports.
He really does. He sang a song about it! Did you see that? Justin Timberlake loves sports! And just like they kept saying during the show, Justin's from Memphis… whoo hoo! Memphis! And… uh… yeah, they love sports in Memphis.
Poor, poor Memphis. Memphis was wronged.
And so were we US Americans who ordinarily enjoy watching this made-for-TV sports award show. Timberlake's lack of subtlety and obvious blanket ignorance of the sporting world destroyed his on-air — ahem — performance. And why was there an R&B singer hosting this show in the first place? Was there a comedian shortage in Los Angeles? Give me Jimmy Kimmel. Bring back Jamie Foxx. Mathew Perry? Where was Lance Armstrong? At least he's an athlete!
What will be next? Will Michael Jackson host the Heisman Trophy Award ceremony? Honestly, it couldn't be much worse than what Timberlake did. At least we all know and expect Michael Jackson to be weird.
So all you Timberlake lovers out there, go back, watch the tape, and you'll know why you shouldn't hate me: 'cuz I'm right.

I saw his name surfing the channel listings last night and decided to pass by. Thanks for watching and confirming the wisdom of my choice.
Michael Jackson only hosts kid shows, BTW.
Michael Norton

Good for you, Michael. Smart indeed. MJ hosting anything these days is just plain disturbing.
Hey, Jeff. Thanks for leaving the comment. Every bold statement has it's share of doubt.

maybe another wardrobe malfunction would have perked things up. I never understood all the hipe about Justin anyway

We get a lot of requests on how to do your makeup if you wear glasses, some from those who wear glasses to help see better and some from those who love the Geek Chic trend and wear glasses because they look so rad! Either way, please don't think that you are limited with your makeup just because you wear glasses. You can absolutely wear any makeup trend! There are just a few adjustments to remember:
1. Glasses cast a shadow so you'll need to cover undereye circles with a non-creasing concealer. Our model True is using Cle de Peau Concealer in Ochre but it's an investment. You can also try a peach-toned concealer (on the color wheel, orange is the opposite of blue, so it will cancel it out) such as Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage.

I started dd on solids about a month ago, but usually give her no more than 2 teaspoons/day (still EBFing and on demand). So far she has liked everything she's tried (banana, sweet peas, applesauce, sweet potatoes, green beans, & peaches). Lately she'll smile and get excited when she sees her bowl and spoon, but then cry when it's all done! I'm afraid to give her more because I don't want to decrease my supply. I give her solids either between feedings of after bfing.
Is she doing this because she's still hungry? Or is she weaning herself off the breast and more towards the solids?
I have noticed that she's not pooping EVERY day. She'll go every other day or 2, but when she does they are 2 EXPLOSIONS. Her wet diapers are still great

Leaders Discuss at OpenWorld: Achieving Zero Downtime Upgrades and Migrations
By Irem Radzik-Oracle on Sep 26, 2011
OpenWorld brings us another exciting session about a hot topic: system upgrades and migrations. This time it is a panel discussion between industry leaders that undertook pretty large projects with strict requirements for minimizing downtime. Fedex, SiriusXM Radio, and Dell will talk about the best practices they followed in their highly-critical migration projects and how they removed the risk of interrupting business operations leveraging Oracle GoldenGate.
On this blog site and in many of our webcasts we have talked about Oracle GoldenGate's unique solution for upgrades and migrations. GoldenGate's real-time, bi-directional, and heterogeneous data replication capabilities enable to switch over to the new system without downtime. It also offers a failback option by keeping the old system in synch after the switchover, in case the new system experiences a problem. In this session, we will hear from these select customers how they configured GoldenGate for their unique project requirements.
Fedex will talk about how they are moving their data centers, and SiriusXM Radio will talk about how they consolidated data models for subscription management system after the merger. Dell's discussion will include how they migrated their Active-Active replication environment that used Oracle Streams in the past to Oracle GoldenGate.
If you will be at Open World, and have any plans for systems upgrades or migrations, don't miss the opportunity to hear the real-life implementation stories, lessons learned and, best practice tips.
Customer Panel: Achieving Zero-Downtime Upgrades and Migrations
Monday October 3rd 2-3pm PST
Intercontinental Hotel, Ballroom B

But before you get mad at the companies, consider this: According to the government, even a 20 percent margin of error is acceptable under current nutrition labeling guidelines. That means a 200-calorie frozen diet dinner, for example, could really be 240 calories — not a huge difference, but definitely something that could sabotage your attempts to lose weight or even maintain it if you're eating a frozen entree several times a week.
Hidden calories add up
Tufts nutrition professor Susan Roberts, lead investigator for the study, calls these "hidden calories" a real problem for those over 50 and watching their weight. "Eating 10 percent more calories than you think is enough to cause 10 or 20 pounds of weight gain a year."
In fact, Roberts got the idea for the study when she couldn't lose weight while researching her own weight-loss book, The Instinct Diet. The book's two-track menus allow dieters to either eat at home or eat restaurant or packaged food. Roberts lost weight on the home-cooked food, but when she was on the eat-out track, "I completely stopped losing weight," she says. Suspicious of the stated calorie counts on the prepared foods she was eating, she decided to test them in Tufts' Energy Metabolism Laboratory.
You can't count on the calorie counts
She and her researchers found about 18 percent more calories than the stated value in foods served at 29 quick-serve and sit-down restaurants, as well as an average of 8 percent more calories than stated in 10 frozen meals purchased from supermarkets. Some of the restaurant dishes had up to twice as many calories as reported — other foods had fewer calories than reported.
Many of the foods were marketed as diet meals. The researchers found that Lean Cuisine shrimp and angel hair pasta, for example, had 28 percent more calories than stated on the package, while Weight Watchers lemon herb chicken piccata had 21 percent more calories than listed. The biggest calorie bonanza: Denny's grits with butter packed a whopping 200 percent more calories than stated, the study reported.

- Title
- Beyond the mirror: on experiential knowing as research mode in creative writing
- Author(s)
- Hecq, Dominique
- Abstract
- Inherent in 'practice-led research' is the dialectic between practice and research. For some time, this dialectic has been problematised in varying ways and to varying degrees across the creative arts in terms that are reminiscent of Deleuze's 'disjunctive synthesis' (Deleuze and Guattari 2004: 14). Further, creative writing has mostly theorised its practice and research according to models offered by the visual arts, thereby ignoring its own 'domain specificity' (Baer 2012). This paper, however, posits that creative writing is a way of apprehending, knowing and being in the world; and more specifically it functions simultaneously as a perspective, an epistemology and an ontology specific to writing. It argues that our conceptual tools need to be made over in order to fit creative practice in writing: rather than being in thrall to the regime of images, these tools should enable us to deal specifically with writing in relation to the experiential and to subjectivity – that is, from the inside out. Reading Kristeva's central argument in Revolution in poetic language (1974) against the grain, I reassess the relevance of the term 'practice-led research' for creative writing, asking how the poetic text can challenge the dominant paradigm and how it can be considered as research. More pointedly, building on Kristeva's theorisation of the semiotic chora and on Lakoff's work on metaphor, I ask what the epistemological thrust of creative writing might be, particularly if it is non-mimetic or experimental and hence destabilises polysemy and the syntactic function. I do so by questioning the role of sign, image and metaphor in the process of knowledge production from within an experiential practice which mobilises the unconscious, perception, pre-language and language. In such light, creative writing is a form of research in its own right which triangulates two seemingly mutually exclusive discourses encompassing (tacit) knowing and (explicit) knowledge.

Chamber Notes: Raffle winners and upcoming golf tourneyApril 28,2014
BlueCross BlueShield of Vermont, Northstar Fireworks, Cody Chevrolet, and Cooperative Insurance Companies may not show up on the leader board, but they are the stars of the 2014 Chamber Challenge being held at the Country Club of Barre on Friday, May 9. They are the foursome that makes this years event possible.
BlueCross Blue Shield is the tournament sponsor, Northstar is gift sponsor, and Cooperative Insurance Companies is awards banquet sponsor. Cody Chevrolet is risking a vehicle for a hole-in-one on the par-three seventh hole.
Along with nearly two dozen hole and specialty award sponsors, these companies provide critical financing for the 21st Annual Chamber Challenge tournament, the first of the year on the Barre course that opened this weekend.
Cooperative Insurance Companies is pleased to join these other great companies as a sponsor this year, said Randy Roy, vice president of marketing.
BlueCross and Northstar were sponsors last year, and Cody Chevrolet has long been a fixture on the seventh hole.
Dennis Cahill, captain of the BlueCross team, said hed love to have his team win its own tournament. We may not be where the smart money is bet, but wed be delighted to take home a trophy.
Corporate bragging rights are at stake. Winners can boast all season, and eighteen teams are scheduled to compete. Additional teams can register through Friday of this week.
Granite Financial, last years low gross winners, and Northfield Investment Services, first low net in 2013, are returning to defend their crowns from Cahill and others.
Northfield Savings Bank has some internal competition going. A team from the bank will try to oust their financial services team. They will find plenty of external competition as well. TD Bank, Community National, and VSECU also have teams. NSBs bank team captured low gross honors two years ago.
Cahills BlueCross team may find it challenging just to win the insurance sector with the Insurance Agency of New England and the Cooperative in the hunt.
There are also three construction companies: Copping Construction, Norway & Sons, and E.F. Wall & Associates. E.F. Wall holds a mythical chamber trophy as the only company to field a team in all 21 Chamber Challenge tournaments.
Northstar, Rock of Ages, Fothergill Segale & Valley, Casella, and Valsangiacomo, Detora & McQuesten round out the field so far.
Roger King, golf pro at the Country Club, reported the course is in great shape. Were delighted to have a partnership with the Chamber for the first tournament; its a great start to the season, he said.
Teams can obtain registration information online at central-vt.com/chamber/golf14 or by calling the Chamber office at 229-5711. Individuals whod like to play can also call as some prospective teams may need a player to complete a foursome.
In addition, more than 100 members and friends of the Central Vermont Chamber of Commerce gathered at the Canadian Club for dinner Wednesday evening, and Midstate Dodge was the last business standing in a post-dinner draw-down.
Gary Clark, of Bates & Murray Inc., was present to claim the $500 runner-up prize, but Midstate Dodge won the grand prize in absentia, barely outlasting a Capitol City Automart, the third place finisher. Formula Fords number had been drawn earlier, along with scores of others.
Mid-state owner Mitchell Jay got word of the win Thursday morning.
Bellavance & Sons placed fourth, and Marion Milne and friends won the fifth-place prize.
Leslie Sanborn, chair of the Chamber board of directors, welcomed everyone to the Chambers annual dinner drawing before turning the program to past chair Steve Gilman and announcer Mike Donovan who quickly eliminated 75 participants from grand prize contention.
Gilman thanked everyone who sold or purchased tickets. He noted that Milne was the top salesperson in 2014 as she has been every year since the inaugural event in 1983. Other top salespeople this year were Gary Hass, Bob Lord and Al Jacobs as well as both Gilman and Donovan.
After a very nice family-style roast beef dinner and dessert, 73 more ticketholders were eliminated, leaving just Bates & Murray and Midstate Dodge with a chance at the grand prize. Clark left with the final consolation prize as Midstate captured the $4,000 top award.
The annual dinner provided the key financing for the Chambers purchase of its building at Beaulieu Place in Berlin 25 years ago and its expansion a decade later. In addition to the Chambers own office and meeting rooms, the complex houses Green Mountain United Way and six other smaller businesses, professionals, and organizations.
Sanborn said the Chambers office complex now serves the Chamber and the community much the way Milne envisioned it when the event was introduced more than three decades ago so the Chamber can have a place of its own someday. At that time, the organization rented space in the Vermont Chamber building, less than a mile from Beaulieu Place.
Wednesdays other consolation prize winners included Sanborn, Sandy Gascon, Heather Shouldice, Peter Hood, and Al Perry.
Helen Ruel, Hass, and 2013 grand prize winner Jim Breer assisted with the dinner and drawing.

A Look Inside The Oscar Nominees Luncheon
The stars came out to Beverly Hills today to be honored as nominees for the 85th Annual Academy Awards and Starpulse was in the building to capture all of the action. The Nominees Luncheon is an annual event where film industry gathers to celebrate their nomination for one final time before the big day. Each honoree is given a certificate that recognizes their Academy Award nomination and they get a souvenir Oscar sweatshirt. Hey, if you don't get the Oscar, at least you got some swag!
If this all sounds a bit like high school graduation, it actually is. After lunch is served, the entire Academy Award Class of 2012 (Remember, The Academy is honoring films from the prior year.) gets in place for a big group photo. It is a historic moment in film history when you have names like Steven Spielberg, Robert De Niro, Sally Field, Anne Hathaway, and Denzel Washington captured for the archives.
The Interview Room is a fast and furious-paced speed round of questions where the celebrities come in to a room filled with approximately 50 journalists from aroud the world. The nominees get asked questions like, "Who are you wearing on Oscar night?" to "What do you plan on doing come Oscar morning?" It is always a wild ride in the press room, but that is what makes the day so much fun.
Here are some of the best quotes of the day from the nominees who joined in on the day's festivities.
"I'm not going for sympathy vote. Don't worry."-- Tim Burton after the media gave him a resounding "Awww" when he talked about his recent injury after a fall in London.
"Most little girls dreamed about their wedding dresses, but I always dreamed about my Oscar dress."--Jessica Chastain after she was asked the obligatory question about her red carpet gown.
"It's still a big deal." - Robert De Niro's very short response to a reporter who asked about his Silver Linings Playbook nomination after a 21-year absence as an Academy Award nominee.
"It was the Super Bowl! I couldn't think about dresses with all that delicious fried food around."--Anne Hathaway replying to another obligatory, "Who are you wearing?" question.
"I owe Quentin more than I would like to admit." Christoph Waltz who is nominated for his second Oscar in his second Tarantino film.
"I know that I wasn't up here for The Hangover." - Bradley Cooper who acknowledged that his Silver Linings Playbook role was definitely a career game-changer.
How will these nominations play out? Be sure to follow Starpulse on the red carpet and backstage for all of the inside scoop on February 24th.

Is anyone else confused by the fact that the Mizukage is a woman and not a man. So it would appear that Madara was indeed the Mizukage previously just not now.
(Unless he is changing his appearance to not draw attention to himself) I doubt it thought because Kisame addressed him as the Mizukage when he revealed himself to Kisame so he must have been the previous one.
Unless Kishi is pulling a fast one on us and Madara is actually a woman(I very seriously doubt it)
mizukage has nice long hair, i guess she can use that as a weapon like j-man. so tobi/madara was one of the mizukage, maybe the first mizukage?
and that girl who punched naruto so hard seems she punches like sakura, you can see on naruto's face or even powerful.
Mizukage + Tsunade = Love
I'm usually one for story over action but this chapter was just plain boring. Sure we finally got to see all of the kages, but except for the very beautiful Mizukage, was it really worth it. I'd rather just wait until the meeting until I was introduced to them. And c'mon are you kidding me tsuchikage. Tsuchikage=totally lame. And if danzo lays a finger on anko, i'll personally gut him myself.:D
anyone else notice the evil duck
just a wonder but what if danzo is obito. right hand and right eye just a wonder.
is it just me or does it look like there's a machine on danzo's right arm?...at the end of 454.
take a close look, i can't really tell what the hell it is.
i think it is
Gief Tsunade + Mizukage yuri.
lmao at the tsuchikage xD
love it.! ) Mizukage, i think, is also a hot tempered woman! )
I wish Tsuande was still the Hokage then if Mizukage and Tsunade faced each other (two hot tempered women) *BOOM!* wanna see em fighting!

btw, who's dajimu tera?? is he an ANBU?
this chapter was the best... i love it
Stuipid stupid stupid, absolutely retarded Naruto. Kishimoto has to be kidding us with his attitude towards Sasuke. I wonder if he really believes what Naruto is saying, or is he jsut making fun of us and Naruto.
Kishomoto, sorry to say that, but you're a retard. And even Mizukage can't save you from trolling with Naruto.

A California city is paying 28 homeless people $3,000 each to leave a former landfill area.
The city of Albany has plans to turn the area known as the Bulb into a 31-acre park, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
Under a settlement with city officials, the homeless people must leave the area by Friday and must promise to stay away for at least a year.
Some of the transients have lived in the area for 15 years or more, according to the East Bay Express.
The settlement, negotiated by an advocacy group on behalf of the homeless, brings a long-standing legal dispute to an end.
But not without some bitterness.
"Overall, there's a sense of loss," Osha Neumann, an attorney with the East Bay Community Law Center, told the Chronicle. "I think it's great they're getting some money, but it's lousy that Albany spent all this money on this issue when they could have been helping these people."

Good afternoon,
I spent the morning at the
Illinois State Fair this morning, where our staff has set up a booth in
I invite each of you out to the booth, where staff is on hand to answer questions about teacher certification, School Report Cards, and more.
Secondly, I would like to let each of you know that based on our preliminary performance data we have determined AYP and have notified those schools who may need to offer additional services and options to students. While this AYP calculation excludes, attendance, graduation and participation rates (each of which is due to be submitted next week), it does represents the best information that we have available at this time. We have sent letters out to the 694 schools that will be affected. Because of pending Freedom of Information Act requests, we will be releasing the list of schools that have been designated as being in need of improvement to the press next Tuesday.
Also below today is a reminder to each of you for filing your School Report Card data and reviewing and approving your assessment performance data.
Robert Schiller
State Superintendent
of Education
Also in today's message:
· public school choice; or
· public school choice and supplemental educational services; or
· public school choice, supplemental educational services, and corrective action; or
· public school choice, supplemental educational services, corrective action, and first year of restructuring.
Schools identified as having to offer any of the above, except for restructuring (first year is a planning year) should be prepared to implement these efforts at the beginning of 2004-05 school year.
As a reminder – the status determinations have been made by using preliminary 2004 assessment data. We need to remember that not every district has completed its revisions and/or made necessary approvals of their performance data on Schoolhouse (This window closes August 21st). The preliminary status may possibly change if revisions to the performance data positively impact a school's AYP.
If you suspect you should be offering Choice and or SES and have not been notified, please contact Data Analysis (217) 782-3669.
2002-2003 NCLB Performance Report Reminder
ALERT: approximately 110 school districts still have not completed the 2002-2003 NCLB Performance Report in spite of the deadline having been extended and telephone calls made to all districts not having yet filed the report. It is very important that this report be completed as federal funds for 2004-05 will be frozen if it is not received promptly. If your district received Title I, Title II, Title IV or Title V funds in 2002-03, the superintendent or his/her designee should immediately go into IWAS and complete the report.

The following link will provide each of you our most recent estimates of General State Aid for Fiscal Year 2005.

Annual Measurable Achievement Objectives for Title III (AMAO) Performance Report
The Illinois State Board of Education has set the 2004 Annual Measurable Achievement Objectives (AMAOs) for English language proficiency in response to a No Child Left Behind (NCLB) mandate. These targets are listed in the table below.
This fall, school districts receiving Title III monies will be notified for the first time of their pass/fail status in meeting these established AMAOs. These AMAO targets apply to all school districts which received Title III funds. The AMAOs are measured from the performance of a cohort* of LEP students in local-state approved tests that measure their proficiency in listening, reading, speaking, and writing English – not IMAGE or ISAT. A school district must have a percentage of the students score within the "Proficient" category for the test administered in the district to meet AMAOs. "AMAO Proficient" is a composite score computed by taking a weighted percentage of proficient students in each domain (listening, reading, speaking, and writing).
AMAO Progress Targets 2004
(Based upon 2003/04 Student Data)
AMAO Proficient
2004 Maculaitis II
If the State determines, based on the annual measurable achievement objectives, that a school district fails to make progress toward meeting such objectives for 2 consecutive years, the agency will require the school district to develop an improvement plan that will ensure that the schools meet such objectives. School districts which failed to meet the AMAOs must also notify parents of students participating in the school district's Title III programs, of such failure. If the State determines that the district has failed to meet the AMAOs for 4 consecutive years, the agency shall,
Require the district to modify the curriculum, program, method of instruction; or make a determination whether the district shall continue to receive funds and require the district to replace educational personnel relevant to the district's failure to reach the objectives.
The State may
also recognize local school districts whose programs have demonstrated
significant progress in assisting students to learn English and to meet the same
challenging academic content standards as all students are expected to meet.
These AMAOs apply until the State of

Gimme Fluttery Eyelashes: Dior Diorshow Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum Review
Somebody told me I look like a chipmunk in this photo. LOL!
When the last of my previous lash primer – Shiseido Nourishing Mascara Base – dried up, I was in search for the next best eyelash primer, mascara primer, or mascara base, whatever you call it.
A mascara primer is applied before mascara to comb and coat each lash for smoother and more even mascara application. Just like how foundation primer, eyeshadow primer work.
After doing a ton of research, my search was narrowed down to Diorshow Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum and Lancome Cils Booster XL Super Enhancing Mascara Base.
I was originally inclined to get the Lancome mascara base since the Lancome Oscillation Vibrating Infinite Power Mascara was one of my favorite mascaras. On the other hand, Dior's Diorshow Iconic Extreme Mascara didn't leave a good impression on me (dry and clumpy and flaky =__="), yet despite that, I finally got the Dior lash primer. Simply because reviews on blogs and MUA seemed better. Reviews are so important! (That's why you're reading this heh heh)
Chic Packaging
The packaging is expected of a high-end brand like Dior and it stands out with its white tube in my stash of black mascara tubes.
I like that the exterior still looks very much like when I first had it, despite all the tossing and rough handling when I look for it in my mascara drawer. Not that it's hard to spot though.
The Smashbox Lash Primer looked dilapidated with its peeled wording and faded texture; the Shiseido Nourishing Mascara Base had scratches all over. I'm sure this Dior one has battle scars aplenty, just that the chic glossy packaging covers it all up nicely.

A Cornucopia of Dumb Baseball Questions
As writers, we have to realize when we make mistakes. That was one of the lessons in Mark's J-Blog School. In my last post, I posted a MLBlog definition that you guys all helped me with. Even though it was a great definition, I think we were just defining the fan blogs that we read. Julia and Bigpapi72 recommended that I send it to Mark, and I did. It was within his response that I realized our mistake. "MLBlogs are whatever people want them to be… Do not try and define the indefinable".
22 Comments
Elizabeth, we true baseball fans just have to forgive those who are less fortunate then us! And – who did you choose? Jeffrey or Allen? lol!!
What's Life Skills class?
And what's an RSBS moment? I clicked on the link but it said it couldn't find it…
Julia: I went through this whole choosing process in which I spelled Jason Varitek's name out, and he told me to pick 'b', so I did. Hopefully I got it right! And thank you!! Number four again, that's great!!
Diamondback: Life Skills class is a really awkward class that attempts to teach you about drugs and alcohol among other things as you can imagine. The 'Red State Blue State' moment was simply seeing Jeff and Allen's names right next to each other!
Great post! This is funny. I was walking through our MLB.com lobby on my way to the elevator at lunch, and our main TV there was showing a recent playoff game…whatever we had on the site. I froze and watched it…just because it was actual baseball! I didn't care what game or era. I just wanted to see a ball hit and a fielder try to catch it. You tell 'em, Elizabeth!
Mark: Thanks!! Anything in the offseason goes for me for baseball. I don't care if it's watching the Yankees win the World Series (even though I don't like it). I have to watch it, it's an addiction, the best type anyone can have!
Elizabeth, for someone who's only 15 you write with great maturity, thoughtfulness, intelligence, an excellent understanding of the game, and a true respect for its history..
i've been impressed for a while🙂
I guess we should just be happy they are "trying" to understand this great game. I've been watching some baseball, too. Cardinals games on mlb.tv from last year. It's how we get through the offseason! Congrats on Papelbon!
Yay for using a big word in your title! 🙂 I'm always appalled at how people ask stupid questions. Whether about baseball or anything else. Sometimes I just wanna hit people when they ask me stupid questions, especially when they're rude (like "Are those real?" I get that all the time! How rude can a person be?!). Who doesn't know Yogi?! I still can't get over this one! Congrats on #13, by the way!
Hahaha! Very funny conversations you have there! Hilarious picture of Papelbon also. And congrats on making #13. You go girl!🙂
Hey, Elizabeth …
Yogi Berra once said, "we can learn a lot by just observing" !!! … Well, I guess you learned a lot about your classmates [yesterday] by just observing their actions in class, and listening to their questions and responses !!! … "Congratulations" on continuing to move up the "Leader's List" to #13 … A #1 ranking for "The Future Blog of the Red Sox" is clearly in sight !!! … Have a great day !!! … Jimmy [27NYY], "BY&L" http://baseballtheyankeesandlife.mlblogs.com/
And, Elizabeth …
I look forward to your dedication in honor of your #13 ranking on the "Leader's List" !!!
Jimmy [27NYY], "BY&L" … http://baseballtheyankeesandlife.mlblogs.com/
Levelboss: Thank you so much! I hope to continue impressing🙂
Kathy: Thank you! And thank god we have mlb.tv to help us in the offseason
Jen: Thanks, and congrats on number 20! Stupid and rude questions are appalling, thank god we're better than that! LOL
Hyun Young: Thanks!! Papelbon has a "cornucopia" of funny pics!
Jimmy: Thanks! Too bad those observations were astonishing in a very bad way. I look forward to your ranking entry as well!
I love Paplebon! Not just because of his amazing sucess on the field, but also how hilarious he is!! The stuff he does is so funny! And I hope you guys can get Tek locked up soon too! Baseball…I can almost taste it!!
Good Post! The good news is that the new top 100 doesn't have any ad's filling up vital spots. The bad news is that I still didn't make it! WHERE'S THE JUSTICE!!!! Eh, I will push on, you are right blogging is blogging and there really isn't anything else we can says about that.
Kaybee: I'm glad Papelbon brings so much to the table. He seems like he'd be a really funny guy to hang around with!
COB: We'll get you up there soon!!
Thanks for the shout out. Wow! Your Math teacher watches baseball. My Math teacher wears a White Sox hat just because he likes the logo. My teachers hate sports with the exception of my gym coach.
Excellent post, Elizabeth. I think we have created quite the community here at MLBlogs within the last year. Glad you're a part of it and I'm glad you bleed baseball like the rest of us, 'cuz in the end, that's what it's all about.
PS, That sounds like an awesome quiz. You must've aced it!
Bob: No problem for the shout out, you deserve it! Number eight?? That's absolutely incredible! Congratulations!!
Jeff: Thanks, that means a lot. I don't know how I survived without this community before.
Diamondback: LOL, there are some people that really could right?
Great post! It's not so much that non-baseball fans are dumb, they're just misguided. We must feel very sorry for those poor people. Also, you are perfectly justified in watching great games over and over again. They always have a happy ending, and they're much better than chick flicks! Besides, what else is there to watch during the offseason?
What's the MLB Network? Dish Network doesn't carry it so I've never seen it. Which is probably a good thing, since I would never leave the house again.
P. S. Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog:)
They are better than chick flicks! I'd much rather watch old baseball games than chick flicks lol! We've got to help out those misguided non-baseball fans!

text: PITTSBURGH (December 15, 2011) – Year-to-date passenger traffic at Pittsburgh International Airport (www.FlyPittsburgh.com) is 2.4 percent ahead of last year's pace at the end of October, according to the Scheduled Airline Traffic Report prepared by the Allegheny County Airport Authority. For the month, passenger traffic decreased 3.4 percent from October 2010 to October 2011. One of the main factors was the rare, late October snowstorm that shut down many airports in the eastern US. Five airlines reported an increase in scheduled passengers in October 2011 compared to October 2010 as a total of 728,441 scheduled passengers were enplaned and deplaned at the airport for the month, a 3.4 percent decrease (728,441 in October 2011/753,737 in October 2010; 3.4 percent decrease). American and Continental showed the largest increases in traffic. American saw a 31 percent increase in passengers (58,177/44,396; 31 percent), which is a gain of 13,781 passengers. Continental was close behind with a 21.4 percent increase in traffic (60,214/49,580; 21.4 percent), which is a gain of 10,634 passengers. Year-over-year, American has increased its flights by 25% with one new daily non-stop to Dallas-Fort Worth, New York JFK, and Miami. Additionally, as American has added seats to Dallas flights they have been on larger aircraft. One contributing factor to Continental's increase is that Continental has started handling United's flights to Chicago as the merger has progressed. Continental is reporting Pittsburgh-Chicago passengers that were once reported by United. Delta and Southwest also reported increases in traffic. Delta was up 7.8 percent (130,715/121,214; 7.8 percent) and Southwest was up 0.9 percent (137,038/135,825/0.9 percent). Myrtle Beach Direct Air also showed an increase in passenger traffic, gaining a notable 24.3 percent (4,037/3,247; 24.3 percent). Airlines which reported decreases in traffic were: US Airways (189,331/209,756; 9.7 percent), United (54,726/79,212/30.9 percent), AirTran (56,868/62,153; 8.5 percent); JetBlue (22,350/25,161; 11.2 percent), USA 3000 (5,977/6,009; 0.5 percent), Frontier (4,579/5,755; 20.4 percent), and Air Canada (4,429/4,750; 6.8 percent).

If you need a good laugh and aren't looking for anything that's going to tax your brain this summer, "We're the Millers" fits the bill.
Jennifer Aniston teams up with "Saturday Night Live's" Jason Sudeikis for a comedy about a bunch of misfits who are tossed together by a low-level marijuana dealer to pose as a family in order to help him smuggle drugs from Mexico.
Written by Bob Fisher and Steve Faber ("The Wedding Crashers") and Sean Anders and John Morris ("Hot Tub Time Machine"), it's hard to believe it took four writers to come up with this sometimes formulaic script. With that kind of brain meld, you'd expect a laugh a minute. But after the initial set up and road-trip gags, the "Millers" quickly runs out of gas.
Aniston and Sudeikis have good chemistry, but the "Friends" star's character, Rose, is so thinly written that all she really has to do is look good (which she does). A "Flashdance"-esque dance scene by Aniston, where she performs a tame stripper pole dance, is well choreographed, but comes off as a cheap attempt to add some sex appeal to the movie. Well, when you've got the sexiest woman in Hollywood on your marquee, guess you need to make the most of it. But overall, sophomoric humor is the recipe, including an awkward side story about a geeked out family that befriends the Millers then wants to be swingers with the couple.
Julia Roberts's niece, Emma Roberts, is perfectly angst-ridden as a homeless girl who wants to make a quick buck by posing as part of the wholesome family foursome. British actor Will Poulter ("Son of Rambow") steals the movie. As awkward teen, Kenny, he balances just the right bit of dopey with some deft comic timing.
Cameo appearances live up to their expectations including Ed Helmes as a narcissistic drug kingpin and Luis Guzman as Mexican cop who isn't one to pass up a bribe.
"We're the Millers" does get credit for being a road trip comedy with an original story and there are some glimpses of hilarity. Yet, like the afterglow of the stuff that David Clark peddles, the problem with this film is it's easily forgettable a few minutes after you leave the theater.

Sign in using backup codes
Basics of backup codes
If you lose your phones or otherwise can't receive codes via SMS, voice call, or Google Authenticator, you can use backup codes to sign in. These codes are available on your Accounts overview page and were first offered to you at the end of the 2-Step Verification setup. You can also use these codes to sign in if you don't have your Security Key.
The codes come in sets of 10, and you can generate a new set at any point, automatically making the old set inactive. In addition, after you've used a backup code to sign in, it will become inactive.
We recommend you store your codes wherever you keep your other valuable items. Like the codes on your phone, backup codes are only valuable to someone if they manage to also steal your password.
Creating and viewing a set of backup codes
To create a new set of backup codes:
- Sign in to your accounts at https://www.google.com/accounts/SmsAuthConfig.
- Look for the "Printable backup codes" area.
- Click Show/Generate codes.
- If you are fine using the current set of backup codes, you can print or download them. If you believe this set of codes might have been stolen or you've used many of the backup codes, you can generate a new set by clicking Generate new codes.
Signing in
- Locate your backup codes.
- Go to the sign-in page of the Google service you want to use (for example, Gmail).
- Enter your username and password.
- Enter your backup code in the box next to the phone icon, where you would normally enter your verification code.
- Optional: As each code can be used only once, you might want to mark the code as used.

Report: Colorado poised to lead aerospace
- published_in
- Today's News
The report, titled "Launch! Taking Colorado's Space Economy to the Next Level," was created by the Washington, D.C.-based Brookings Institution Metropolitan Policy Program with the participation of the Colorado Office of Economic Development and Trade.
The report found Colorado's "space industry" employs more than 66,000 workers in military, civil and private domains and added $8.7 billion in value-added output in 2011. The industry generated 3.8 percent of the state's private-sector gross domestic output, the report said.
The report broadly defines the industry, which includes private companies such as Boulder-based Ball Aerospace and Technologies Corp. and Longmont-based DigitalGlobe Inc. and research centers such as the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics at the University of Colorado-Boulder. It also includes military bases, such as the U.S. Air Force Space Command headquarters outside Colorado Springs.
The disproportionate place the space industry has in Colorado could be an asset, but if the industry doesn't adapt to less federal dollars and the rise of new competitors and business models, it could falter, according to the report.
Emerging trends include a changing customer base that relies less on government programs and more on providing services to private companies, the report said. Colorado's dependence on military and civilian government contracts could leave it exposed to budget cuts.
"Although Colorado firms badly need to pivot into emerging new markets that are less dependent on federal support, the state space industry has not moved aggressively in this direction as yet and actually lags on some indices of competitiveness when compared to its peer states," according to the report.
Colorado also is lacking in venture capitalists looking to invest in space and a looming shortage of engineers as the workforce ages and retirees aren't replaced.
To retain its position, companies in the state must continue winning government contracts while continuing to innovate.
"Colorado's goal over the next five to 10 years should be simple and bold: Become the dominant center of innovation for the global space economy. However, achieving that goal is going to require a new, more commercial and entrepreneurial mindset as well as unprecedented commitment and collaboration at a moment of stepped up competition,´ said the report's lead author Mark Muro, a senior fellow and policy director of the Brookings Metropolitan Policy Program.

Dear Members,
Keep in mind that Character Bashing is now prohibited. Making fun of certain characters/character pairings leads to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking.

and Itachi. swallowed all the hate throughout his life, but was never moved to actually being evil until the very end.
The death i liked the best was of Itachi
Itachi. His final fight was cool
Konan and Itachi
Kisame had the best in my opinion but I did like how Konan died
I wonder why no one came back to put Hidan's head back on his body....
Itachi's death was the best especially the last fight
nagato, sacrificed himself to revive everyone in konoha thanks to naruto's talk no jutsu
gotta give this one to Kisame, Konan and Nagato.
Sasori- Died and let her grandma win and had his parents hug him in the very end.
Deidara- Died with an EXPLOSION. True Art
Itachi- Died as a martyr, living behind the shadows and acted with his own intentions.
Nagato- Died passing on his dreams to Naruto, saved most of the diseased in konoha.
Konan- Fought tobi and gaved him a very very hard time lol. Stood for what she believed in. Rainbow after 6 million paper explosives i think.
Kisame-Faked death, got intel, and eaten by sharks. What more can u ask for?
Hidan and Kakazu well..
yeah kisames is the best
Itachi = Died to protect his brother from orochimaru and to make his brother stronger
Kisame of course

1. YAHIKO (yeah right, he was the one who found akatsuki and he was the first leader )
2. Nagato
3. Itachi
4. Konan
5. Kisame

Residents came out to a community forum in downtown Madison on Thursday night to ask questions of the sole candidate for Madison Metropolitan School District superintendent.
Board of Education members decided to have the community question-and-answer session at the Monona Terrace even after the other finalist dropped out earlier this week, leaving only Jennifer Cheatham, chief of instruction for Chicago Public Schools.
Cheatham said she's taking the board's decision to have her meet the public Thursday night as a statement of confidence in her.
The mayor and other elected leaders listened at the forum as Cheatham said Madison is her top choice and she isn't looking anywhere else. If she gets the job, Cheatham said she plans to have a long tenure in Madison.
"Call me Jen. I hope we're going to know one another for a long time, so we need to become good friends," Cheatham said.
Cheatham showed a sense of humor at the meeting but also cited statistics and national studies. There were questions from schoolchildren about the minority achievement gap, which Cheatham said should be addressed through culturally aware teachers.
"These conversations about race are so tough because people want to have them and then they get scared, and they want to walk away," Cheatham said.
She answered a lot of questions about her policies as chief instruction officer for Chicago Public Schools.
"I would never come into a school district thinking that I'm going to impose some approach that I used in a former school district. Every district is different. We need to together decide what the best approach is for Madison," she said.
Another topic that was brought up was Cheatham's role in the Chicago teachers strike last year. She said her policies didn't cause the strike.
"I think, and I feel strongly, in that I've had a good collaborative relationship with the members of our teachers union," Cheatham said.
But afterward, John Matthews, the head of the Madison teachers union, questioned her collaborative attitude, referencing the strike.
"That kind of an attitude isn't going to sail in Madison," Matthews said.
But Matthews said he thinks the decision's already been made.
"It's time to start working with her because I think the board's convinced. The board will, in my opinion, before your morning news make an announcement that she's hired," Matthews said.
The school board met behind closed doors after the meeting Thursday night about whether to hire Cheatham or re-open the search. A district spokeswoman said the board wouldn't come to a decision Thursday night.
Kaleem Caire, the head of the Urban League of Greater Madison, said that Cheatham needs to meet with community leaders and teachers before there's a decision. He said that if she's perceived as the "winner by default" after all of this, it will dog her throughout her time in Madison.
The board is scheduled to meet again Friday afternoon.

Ohio Northern University to present 'Romeo and Juliet'
Ohio Northern University's Freed Center for the Performing Arts will present "Romeo and Juliet" by National Players in the Stambaugh Theatre on Saturday, Jan. 19, at 7:30 p.m.
This production of "Romeo and Juliet" is National Players at its best: fresh, contemporary and visceral. This rendering of star-crossed lovers is set to the pulsing rhythms of contemporary digital society, where everything is shared and nothing connects, and takes the play back to its source while bringing it viciously into the here and now.
National Players, founded in 1949, offers an exemplary lesson in collaboration and teamwork in action; the actors not only play multiple roles onstage, but also serve as managers, teaching artists and technicians. A self-contained company, National Players carries its own sets, lights, costumes and sound.
Tickets are $25 for general admission, $10 for children, and $7 for ONU students. The Freed Center box office is open Monday through Friday from noon to 5 p.m., and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Phone orders are accepted with American Express, MasterCard, VISA or Discover by calling 419-772-1900.
