LOLOL you just want an excuse to call Sasuke crap haha
Ooh the chapter was epic, glad it wasn't a flashback, the fight was epic, and the last page was EPIC!
I noticed that Itachi's right eye is not visible, he might've activated Izanami before he was cut in two, and he might not.. The next chapter will be a pretty epic chapter, hope so. :D
Great chapter sasuke like you sure we cant kill him man, but it was nice seeing the bro fight back to back haha
Itachi seemed cool in the chapter till he got owned in the end........or did he?
What was Sakon's ability there? Was that how Orochimaru made people appear from his body?

ryte he a sasuke hater im glad itachi got hit because people can stop giving him ecxcuses and thats really made me mad that tyuya low lvl genjutsu worked on them bs if you ask me

or kabuto manage to put the tailsman on itachi ?
either way next chapter will be badass, with 2 possibility
-kabuto regain control over itachi so its kabuto and itachi vs sasuke
-we will get to see izanami
Kabutos getting haxxed he chopped Itachi in two :0 anyway i see Kabuto dying soon that genjutsu on each other was cool also
very nice chapter....i give it a 4
I Can't understand this... can somebody reply :: http://www.narutobase.net/manga/Naruto/585/13
nice chapter really..
Yeah that was pretty badass and they nicely balanced the plot talking and advancing the fight. Seeing the sound-nin and oro was interesting, but I wanted to see more of izanami. I guess we are supposed to think he didn't get it off in time? Hah! Of course he did! The blinded eye is a giveaway! AWESOME! Sucks that all this is so dragged out, but this chapter sure was a good one.

I doubt we're going to see Izanami next chapter. I sure as hell hope we do, but I kind of get the feeling that it'll get prolonged just a little longer, what with Itachi getting split in two and all.
Is tsukotomi a reverse genjutsu or incorrect spelling of tsukoyomi?....
.....I didn't catch Itachi's eye blacked out at first, IMO Izanami is activated, just have to be patient now.

They disturbed each others chakra using genjutsu on each other so they could break out like a medical ninja getting a victim out of genjutsu
lol now fanboys can't overrate amaterasu anymore.shame.
nice chapter.
lolz Kabuto just owned Itachi :p

That will be the question of much debate over the next week - Kishi knows how to create suspense

I assume an incorrect spelling.
Overall I'm glad that 1) the flashbacks ended, 2) Sasuke seemed useful for once (didn't have to be saved over and over), and 3) Izanami was at least ATTEMPTED (if not having succeeded).

Mets' Manager gets pink slip in hotel room in Anaheim over night.
I was surprised to learn that the Mets' have finally fired Willie Randolph, their manager, via the Phillies Nation blog. While I'll be the first to admit that I did see this happening at some point this season, as the Mets have been playing really subpar baseball so far this year after all of the fuss made over them during the post season and spring training, and when players play very badly, the one who gets the pink slip is the manager not the players who are stinking up the joint (isn't that right, Mr. Torre?), but never in a million years would I have expected someone to be given the pink slip in such a lousy manner. I'm not going to make a post about the Randolph firing when a blogger who is a Mets' fan can say it so much better than I can. So, take it away Mr. Cerrone:
Opinion: I Feel Dirty
By Matthew Cerrone
As a Mets fan, I'm embarrassed this morning, and I feel a little dirty.
I understand why Willie Randolph was fired. In fact, due to the time I spend talking to people connected to the team, I am probably aware of why he was fired better than most people.
The problem is that, like in so many cases during this team's history, the story today will not be about replacing Randolph with Jerry Manuel and moving forward, it will be about the way this situation was handled – and rightfully so.
On one hand, most things end badly – otherwise they wouldn't end, especially in baseball.
I have already been sent e-mail from Yankee fans mocking the Mets, which is pretty funny coming from a team that ran Joe Torre and his four rings out of town, and is notorious for the Billy Martin Merry-go-Round.
Nevertheless, the Mets took so long to make this decision that it made them look foolish, classless and disorganized.
For instance, I'm convinced information was intentionally leaked to the media in an effort to force Omar Minaya's hand, which is quite disingenuous, because I still believe Minaya would have preferred to keep Randolph – all while having to spin the media night after night. There are reporters I have talked who all feel the exact same way.
What's worse, from what I can gather, several people in the clubhouse, from players to trainers to security guards, all knew Randolph would eventually be fired on this road trip.
Lastly, yesterday, a person I know, who talks with the team's front office on a regular basis, asked me when I feel Randolph would be fired. I was under the impression that Randolph would be fired on the off day between Los Angeles and Colorado later this week – win or lose. However, the way the question was asked, I could sense it was going to occur a lot sooner than that.
In other words, this was not a secret.
And so, the team's ownership should stepped up and fired Randolph last week, when it is was obvious they had already reached a decision.
Instead, they dismissed their manager at midnight in a hotel room, after he had just won four of his last six games.
That said, I do not feel bad for Randolph. He will live to fight another day, he'll get another job in an industry based on a kid's game, and he'll earn close to $3.5 million doing so, which is a lot better than you and I will ever be treated.
I know this is all part of the deal, in business, but especially in baseball. But, like I said, it just makes me feel a little dirty and a bit embarrassed knowing that so many people knew of this in advance, and that it occurred in the middle of the night, making it all stink of an extra level of smarminess.
I'm not totally sure why I feel this way, but I do.
I'm probably just being emotional. (H/T MetsBlog.com)
I couldn't have put it better myself, Mr. Cerrone. Okay, to me this shows me that Mets' Managment has no class, and following the antics of our own team's mystery owners I know lack of class when I see it. But, really this takes the cake, people. I think it would've been better if they had fired Willie Randolph, pitching coach Rick Peterson and first-base coach Tom Nieto on the off day between the two series of their present road trip. I mean, good god, man, when did the Mets turn into the 1970s/1980s Yankees? Willie, I sincerely wish you and your fellow pink slippers the best of luck finding new employment, I really do. Jerry Manuel, I wish you luck trying to run the zoo. Mets' Management, I hope this comes back and bite you all in the backside. I really do you morons.
Oh, MetsBlog.com has some more information on the firing, so, anyone who want to read them, I'd added a link to Mr. Cerrone's blog.
Update: Oh this just gets better and better. He wasn't given a pink slip in his hotel room. He was told he was fired by email????
Shame on the Mets for their cowardly firing of coach Willie Randolph. Yes, the Mets are underachieving and yes, someone needs to be held accountable, but to fire Randolph in an email quietly at 3:00 AM? It is a cowardly move and speaks volumes about what a disorganized mess the Mets are. (H/T A Citizen's Blog)
Oh, beautiful. This wasn't even a face to face firing. This was via the nets. Real class guys!!!

In a hotel room, at midnight, in a strange town…it's like a scene from a really low budget B-movie. Did they throw a bag over his head and toss him onto the street kicking and screaming as well? Geez…no class at all. How sad for baseball in general. It will be interesting to see how the players respond. Guess their next several series' will tell. Let the games begin!
I was being a bit sarcastic about him getting the pink slip in his hotel room, but, I would not have been surprised if they had placed a bag over his head, etc., after reading about how the Mets' Management handled this fiasco. I mean, geeze, those morons are giving George Steinbrenner a good name, and that ain't easy. Sad it is. As for the players, I don't know, as I rather not speculate at this time, although I'm sure a few of them won't be sorry to see him go. I guess we will know in the next few series whether there will be a positive change or if the Mets will just completely collapse.

I have a call into the hospital's Lactation center - but I thought I would try here too!
I'm new so please forgive any faux pas!
LO is 3 1/2 weeks old and yesterday he started wanting to nurse constantly and never seems satisfied. Yesterday evening I added 2 ozs of formula to an oz of BM that I pumped prior and he finished all but 1/2 an oz. was good overnight (drank 1 breast before falling back to sleep 2x) 1 pumped once at 10 PM while he slept and then the second breast at 12AM and 4AM - got a total of 4 oz pumping - fed again at 7am - both breasts and he was not satisfied until I had given him another 3.5 oz! I feel like I don't have enough milk during the day
Trying to build a stash but he's having to eat it all! HELP!

North Central College Adjunct Professor of Physics and Trustee Herman White Jr. of Naperville has been honored by the American Physical Society (APS) for his work in the field of physics, his public service and his role in mentoring students and fellow scientists.
White is a senior scientist at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Ill. On Feb. 14, he will receive the 2010 Edward A. Bouchet Award, which recognizes "a distinguished minority physicist who has made significant contributions to physics research," according to APS. He will also give a lecture about his research at the award ceremony.
In addition to receiving the award and a stipend, White will be given support to travel to three academic institutions for lectures and informal visits with faculty and students, particularly to promote the participation of under-represented minorities in physics.
During his 35-year career at Fermilab, White has helped design, commission and analyze data from some of the world's most well-known particle physics experiments. He has built a reputation among students, colleagues and politicians for his efforts to boost science education, guiding the next generation of budding scientists.
He served on the APS Committee on Minorities, which involved a new scholarship program with a mentoring component, and was a member of advisory boards for the QuarkNet Project; the Illinois Institute of Technology Department of Biology, Chemistry and Physical Sciences; the National Society of Black Physicists; and a number of governing boards of directors. For many years, White has led numerous communication efforts about physics to the U.S. Congress and served on advisory panels for the U.S. Department of Energy, National Science Foundation, NASA and The National Academies.
White earned his A.B. physics degree at Earlham College, an M.S. degree in nuclear and accelerator physics at Michigan State University and Ph.D. in elementary particle physics at Florida State University. He was a resident research associate in nuclear physics at Argonne National Laboratory (1971), an Alfred P. Sloan Travel Fellow at the CERN Laboratory (1972) and University Fellow at Yale from 1976-1978.
North Central College is an independent, comprehensive college of the liberal arts and sciences that offers more than 55 undergraduate majors and graduate programming in six areas. With more than 2,798 undergraduate and graduate students, North Central is committed to academic excellence, a climate that emphasizes leadership, ethics, values and service, a curriculum that balances job-related knowledge with a liberal arts foundation and a caring environment with small classes.
North Central offers a B.A. in physics where students study and apply the laws of nature at their most fundamental level. They gain excellent preparation for graduate school, positions in industry, teaching at the secondary education level or engineering. Students can choose from three degree tracks in physics, physics teaching and engineering, which include laboratory training in electrical and optical measurements, analog and digital electronics and advanced experimental physics. Many physics majors gain valuable work experience through an internship at a nearby corporate or government research laboratory.

The uninhabited and vast Sarek National Park is the very definition of getting-away-from-it-all.
Sarek in Swedish Lapland
Sven Halling/Johnér
Sarek, in Swedish Lapland, is Sweden's largest expanse of national park and is the definition of remoteness; alpine peaks, massifs, glacial valleys, torrential rapids, and terrain so rough your quads will not fit into your jeans for six months after you get back.
Experienced hikers, mountaineers and adventure fanatics. Indeed you need to be the adventurous type to make it in Sarek: there are no marked trails, cabins or amenities. Yes, every survivalists dream. And that is why Sarek is so great. You will not have to worry about bumping into your neighbour here (unless that's who you are travelling with). Maybe just the odd wild animal.
You can sing out loud, run naked, have monologues with yourself, and nobody will notice. Every Swede's idea of freedom. But the park is not totally bereft of safety and comfort. The prefect starting point is mountain station Saltoluokta, at the beginning of the King's Trail (Kungsleden) with proper beds and a restaurant. Pure luxury.
Note there are no marked trails or amenities. Bring a compass, map, toilet paper and a sense of adventure. Oh, and a tent.
Late spring, summer and early autumn unless you feel like camping in sub-zero and walking in crampons the whole hike.

- Abstract
- Nanobubbles have been shown to exist at liquid/solid interfaces and have become the focus of research in varied interfacial processes. In the present work, bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorbed on mica was used as a model system to investigate the effect of nanobubbles on protein adsorption at the liquid/solid interface. The adsorption of BSA on mica in two types of surfaces, with and without nanobubbles, was imaged by means of an atomic force microscope (AFM) in both liquid and air. By comparing the data from the two groups, it has been shown clearly that the adsorption of BSA was indeed influenced by the nanobubbles. Generally, nanobubbles blocked BSA adsorption and resulted in circular hollows on the BSA films on mica.

I have been asked to step down and not run against Peter Lilholt in a primary for the Highland highway superintendent's position. I received an email from a certain woman asking me to step down. The same woman has spoken to members of the Democratic Party to have them ask me to step down.
I will not step down, and have no intention of doing so. It's up to you, the Town of Highland Republicans, to decide on September 13.

I have been breastfeeding my baby boy exclusively for 7 months. I also breastfed my first son for a year, so I do feel pretty knowledgeable, but I ahve been having such a hard time with solid foods this time around.
It all comes down to poop at this point. At first my son was sooo gassy and constantly having green stools. That subsided a little bit, so I introduced solids just past 5 months old. I only gave rice and only did it once a day for about two weeks, but he started not pooping at all. He would go 2-3 days between stools and so I got worried and stopped solids all together. When I started them again he continued to only poop every 2-3 days and the dr. said that was fine. However, recently I began feeding him solids more often and for the last 5 days he has been pooping soooo much. It's almost every other diaper and he's also pooping in the middle of the night. It's crazy. Most of the stools during the day are green too. I did start him on oatmeal recently, so I don't know if that's it or not.
How do I know if it's diarrhea? How do I know if it's a food allergy?? I've looked at all the signs of an allergy, but the only one he would have is the diarrhea (if that's what this poop is). We don't have food allergies anywhere in our family, so it just doesn't seem logical that he could have one. I should note that he has cut two teeth since March 19, but the frequent stools have only been the last 4-5 days. I just want to know how to determine what's going on because it just can't be normal for him to be pooping 5-6 times a day.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

BSC Hosts Five Mercer County Schools' Academic Competitions During 2010-11 School Year (w/photos)
CreatedThursday, May 26 2011
Created byJim Nelson/Media Relations - (304) 327-4103 email@example.com
Left picture—Sun Valley Elementary, Mercer County Schools 2011 Elementary School "Battle of the Books" champions; Right picture—Montcalm Middle School, Mercer County Schools 2011 Middle School "Battle of the Books" champions.
(Bluefield)—A collaborative effort involving Mercer County Schools and Bluefield State College has provided elementary and middle school students opportunities for academic competition within the larger context of a visit to a college campus.
As the school year draws to a close, many of the best and brightest students in the Mercer County School system traveled to BSC to compete for titles in Spelling Bee, Math Field Day, Reading Bee, and two Battle of the Books events.
Dr. Albert Walker, BSC president, was grateful for BSC's opportunity to serve as a host site for these programs. "These teachers and students, along with their families, bring a lot of excitement to the campus," he noted. "Learning is a lifelong endeavor, and these young men and women are well on their way to success in their studies and in their careers."
Dr. Deborah Akers, Mercer County Schools Superintendent, added, "Bluefield State College provides us an excellent venue for programs and competitions, and also gives our students a glimpse of a college campus and campus life."
Most of the competitions begin and end in the auditorium of the Basic Science Building, but multiple classrooms are utilized to host preliminary rounds of the events.
"Over the years," said Secondary Supervisor Tom Chaffins, "our teachers and students have become very familiar with the building and the campus. We always receive a warm welcome at Bluefield State and have come to feel right at home."

House adopts Senate 'cliff' bill in late voteAP Photo
The lights of the U.S. Capitol burn into the night Tuesday as the House continued to discuss the "fiscal cliff" legislation proposed by the Senate.
WASHINGTON — Ending a fiscal showdown in the final hours of the 112th Congress, the House late Tuesday passed and sent to President Barack Obama legislation to avert big income tax increases on most Americans and prevent large cuts in spending for the Pentagon and other government programs.
The measure, brought to the House floor less than 24 hours after its passage in the Senate, passed 257-167, with 85 Republicans joining 172 Democrats in voting to allow income taxes to rise for the first time in two decades, in this case for the highest-earning Americans. Voting no were 151 Republicans and 16 Democrats.
The bill was expected to be signed quickly by Obama, who won re-election on a promise to increase taxes on the wealthiest Americans to force them to pay a larger share of the government budget.
Obama strode into the White House briefing room shortly after the vote to hail the end of the fiscal crisis but also to lay out a marker for the next one.
"The one thing that I think hopefully the new year will focus on is seeing if we can put a package like this together with a little bit less drama, a little less brinkmanship, and not scare the heck out of folks quite as much," he said.
But he warned Republicans against trying to use a forthcoming vote on raising the debt ceiling to extract spending concessions.
"While I will negotiate over many things, I will not have another debate with this Congress over whether or not they should pay the bills they've already racked up through the laws they have passed," he said. "Let me repeat, we can't not pay bills that we've already incurred."
In approving the measure after days of legislative intrigue, Congress concluded its final and most pitched fight over fiscal policy, the culmination of two years of battles over taxes, the federal debt, spending and what to do to slow the growth in popular social programs like Medicare.
The decision by the Republican leadership to allow the vote came despite widespread scorn among House Republicans for the bill — passed overwhelmingly by the Senate in the early hours of New Year's Day — because it did not include significant spending cuts in health and other social programs. They say cuts are essential to any long-term solution to the nation's debt.
Democrats, while hardly placated by the compromise bill, celebrated Obama's nominal victory in his final showdown with House Republicans in the 112th Congress, who began their term emboldened by scores of new, conservative members whose reach to the right ultimately tipped them over.
"The American people are the real winners tonight," Rep. Bill Pascrell Jr., D-N.J., said on the House floor, "not anyone who navigates these halls."
Not a single leader among House Republicans came to the floor to speak in favor of the bill, though Speaker John Boehner, who does not take part in every roll call, voted in favor. Rep. Eric Cantor of Virginia, the majority leader, and Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California, the No. 3 Republican, voted no. Rep. Paul D. Ryan, the budget chairman who was the Republican vice presidential candidate, supported the bill.
Despite the party divisions, many other Republicans in their remarks characterized the measure, which allows taxes to go up on household income over $400,000 for individuals and $450,000 for couples but makes permanent tax cuts for income below that level, as a victory of sorts, even as so many of them declined to vote for it.
"After more than a decade of criticizing these tax cuts," said Rep. Dave Camp of Michigan, "Democrats are finally joining Republicans in making them permanent. Republicans and the American people are getting something really important, permanent tax relief."
The dynamic with the House was a near replay of a fight at the end of 2011 over a payroll tax break extension. In that showdown, Senate Democrats and Republicans passed legislation; House Republicans fulminated, but they were eventually forced to swallow it.
On Tuesday, as they got a detailed look at the Senate's fiscal legislation, House Republicans ranging from Midwest pragmatists to tea party-blessed conservatives voiced serious reservations about the measure, emerging from a lunchtime New Year's Day meeting with their leaders, eyes flashing and faces grim, insisting they would not accept a bill without substantial savings from cuts.
The unrest reached to the highest levels as Cantor told members in a closed-door meeting in the basement of the Capitol that he could not support the legislation in its current form. Boehner, who faces a re-election vote on his post Thursday when the 113th Congress convenes, had grave concerns as well, though he had earlier pledged to allow the House to consider any legislation that cleared the Senate. Boehner, though, was not eager to have such a major piece of legislation pass with mainly opposition votes, and the outcome could be seen as undermining his authority.
Adding to the pressure on the House, the fiscal agreement was reached by Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Senate Republican leader, and had deep Republican support in the Senate, isolating the House Republicans in their opposition. Some of the Senate Republicans who backed the bill are staunch conservatives, like Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania and Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, with deep credibility among House Republicans.
The options before the House Republicans were fraught with risks. Senate Democrats said they would not brook any serious amendments to their bill — one that was hard fought and passed in the dark of night with many clenched teeth on each side of the aisle. Senate Democratic leaders planned no more votes before the new Congress convenes.
An up-or-down House vote on the Senate measure presented many Republicans with a nearly impossible choice: to end the standoff that most Americans wish to see cease, or to vote to allow taxes to go up on wealthy Americans without any of the changes to spending and entitlement programs they have fought for vigorously for the better part of two years.
"I have read the bill and can't find the spending cuts — even with an electron magnifying glass," said Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., who generally votes against budget bills. "It's part medicinal, part placebo, and part treating the symptoms but not the underlying pathology."
But with their options shrinking just two days before the beginning of a new Congress, the House leadership made one of the largest concessions of their rebellious two years and let the measure move forward to avoid being seen as the chief obstacle to legislation that Obama and a bipartisan Senate majority said was necessary to prevent the nation from slipping back into a recession.MORE IN Wire NewsMADISON, Wis.

The Desire to Score
White, black, awake, asleep, hungry, full… doesn't matter… if you are a man and you have a heartbeat you exist to do one thing and one thing only:
As no exception to this eons-old rite of passion, I couldn't stand the drought any longer, and on Wednesday night I ventured on over to my neighborhood cathedral: the ever tantalizing, the ever teasing, the ever titillating Sox Park.
I scored like no man has ever scored before.
Scorecards tell stories — great, fantastic stories that can be pieced together with digits and asterisks and squiggly lines. Each one is unique — each scorer different from the next, yet universally similar enough to enlighten anyone else willing to read them.
When I was a kid I found scorecards from the '60s an uncle of mine had kept. There I was, decades later, in a dark basement in the dead of winter, recreating the majesty of Ken Boyer and Bob Gibson and Tim McCarver on a hot July afternoon… in my head.
So go ahead, take a gander… and try not to drool (click image to enlarge):
Ahhh… yes… I feel so much better now.
Hate me 'cuz you're allowed to, just don't hate me 'cuz I'm right.

It always feels good to score. I like chatting with the 'scorekeepers' at the games. Sometimes they get mad when you discract them from their scorekeeping, though.
haha, you like to make notes aside too. Mine has Vinsculisms, phone numbers, birthdays for fellow season ticket holders around me, seat locations of friends that stop by to see me, etc.
And Wow on those scorecards that you score of the 60
Nice…I used to love to score games…busy taking photos now. Sometimes I wish I were two people at once ;o)
Mike — Haha. That's true. I love the ensuing innuendo btw.
Emma — Yeah, I like to write down funny things that people around me say… like in this case my friend Johanna said "I"m drinking more and remembering less." Love that line.
Jenn — I understand the feeling. Your pics are well worth it though.
Love your little side notes on the scorecard. I used to score every game but have gone to the "other side" lately and now tweet during the games instead. Ruined my life.
Never thought I'd want to see you score, but I made it though. Baseball porn, gotta love it.
p.s. Kudos for "Sox Park", instead of Field
Awesome!! I love keeping score. I kept my scorecards since 1977. They are gold to me!
Baseball porn!! AAAaahHHhhaahah!!
I remember keeping score at games. I haven't done that in a long time. With a DSLR and my Motorola Cliq, I've got too much tech to want to grab a pencil and buy a scorecard. Lame, I know…
OK, I lied, I kept score at a softball game last year because they were short guys on the team. The captain was impressed on ow "detailed" I kept score. You see, the art is not lost (though side notes would not be appropriate in an organized softball league like the one i support…).
I'm with ya Mike & Randy… keep up the good fight!

There's no reason to lie about this: I'm searching for a new apartment right now. There's also no reason to lie about this: I hate doing it. It's the worst thing. Searching for an apartment is just one of the many aspects of adulthood no one warns you about. I'm here to warn you about it, to serve as a warning and say that Apartment Hunting is a big, fat piece of shit.
This is going to sound like an exaggeration, but believe me when I say that no one who has ever tried to sell an apartment online has any idea how to take photographs. Not one. A lot of renters don't even post pictures of their apartment online, and that's fine, it just means no one is ever going to live there. Some renters will just hang out in an apartment with a buddy, toss the camera back and forth and publish whatever pictures accidentally get snapped in the process. They look at pictures like this...
...and they think "Yes, these are representative of my apartment. This provides future renters with all of the information they would need to make a decision. I'm gonna go ahead and publish these to the internet, and then I'm going to see if I can swallow my own tongue, because I'm not very bright at all." You're right, shockingly-self-aware-fictitious-renter, you are an idiot. Now, while I made the above pictures to prove a point, I could have just as easily picked any random apartment ad. Like this one!
Someone has one shot to make you fall in love with their apartment online, and those were the only pictures they found necessary to post. I have no idea what rooms I'm looking at or if this place even has a toilet. What these pictures say to me is "Come live here, we probably have most of a kitchen!" If you look at the difference between Photo 1 and Photo 2, it's clear that their camera is capable of taking wide shots, which means they intentionally cropped out portions of their second photo. "Sure, this is all part of the apartment, but I don't think they need to know about most of this space; let's trim some of that fat and just show them the door, that's all they're looking for."
Some other renters do include pictures, but only pictures of the exterior, or the street around the apartment...
The only pictures associated with one listing.
What do they expect? No future tenant is going to say "A pool and what is clearly some bushes? I've seen all I need to see- I'll take it!" That person doesn't exist. Some landlords do include pictures, but they'll add some douchey, aggravating fisheye lens, which is their subtle way of saying "Look, I own a fisheye lens!"
When I look at this, I feel like all of the rooms are saying "BooOOOooww!"
Unless the rooms actually look like that, (which, if they do- what?), don't include it in your ad. We only want to see what your apartment really looks like, (we're weird like that). And, if you want people to rent your apartment, there is no benefit to being misleading in your ad. It's almost like some people are trying to scam us, but like, in a really misguided way...
People Are Trying to Scam You, But Like, in a Really Misguided Way
While searching for apartments, you'll learn a new, secret language unique to apartment ads. You'll see words like "Cozy" and "Charming" and "Certainly Not Covered In Ants, If That's What You're Worried About," and you'll learn after visiting a few places that they actually stand for "Tiny," "Mostly Nonfunctioning In A Variety of Unique Ways," and "Just Fucking Ants, Everywhere, Man, I Don't Even Know What To Do Anymore."
It's beautiful, but yeah, the ants control the rent.
And if they're not dressing up a tiny, broken apartment in creative language, then they're just withholding information. They'll leave out pictures of the kitchen, they'll describe their square footage as "unspecified," and in the part of the ad where they're supposed to tell you if the unit comes with parking, they'll dodge the question and say "Great view of things you should check it out so close to a Whole Foods!"
"If you like parking, you'll love paying too much for groceries!"
They don't want to tell you any of the bad things about the apartment, but I honestly don't see a scenario wherein this con actually pays off. If you're apartment doesn't have a kitchen, even if you don't include it in your ad, I'm eventually going to find out. If you're selling a bullshit product over the internet, I can understand being less-than-truthful in your description. But that's a product, where it's much easier to trick someone into sending you money. There doesn't seem to be any benefit in lying in your ad if your endgame requires me to look at your apartment before signing anything. Also, lying makes you seem less legitimate, you're almost like one of those terrible internet scammers. Oh, hey!

I was in Bakersfield for a couple days this week to photograph a vow renewal ceremony. (More on that, later). I had some time to walk around, just to see what I could see. It's one of my favorite ways to pass some time in a new town. Reminds me of this quote by Robert Adams. "No place is boring if you had a good night's sleep and have a pocket full of unexposed film."
Wedding guests
I photographed two weddings last week. Both, originally intended for outside. After all, it is still September. But, cold weather forced a change on the days of both weddings. Here's a photograph from my friend and former UVU student, Mackenzie's wedding. I'll post more from this happy day once I have them all edited.
First day of fall
Today is the first day of fall and it's raining outside.
I have the back door open so I can hear the thunder. It seems like a good night to have a cup of tea and watch a good movie, but there are photos to edit. I love what I do, but it sure would be nice to just sit here and listen to the rain.
Amy was gone for a couple days for a women's conference with friends. I stayed home with the boys. The first day did not go so great. I was too harsh when they took too long to clean the front room and also when they didn't do a very good job cleaning the front room, and then again for their resistance when I told them to go back and clean the front room. You gotta pick your battles, they say, and I don't want to stand my ground on having a clean front room at the expense of souring our relationship. Lesson learned.
Today went far better. I kept telling myself love was the most important thing. Love was the answer. Then I drove to the market and bought some ingredients for each boy to make their own pizza for lunch. After yesterday, I was going for father of the year, but have you ever made your own pizzas? We could go out for pizza every night for a week for the amount of money I spent for lunch. The pizzas were good, though, and they boys were pleased as punch about getting to make their own pizzas, and they loved me, again, and man, you can't put a price on that. Oh, wait. Yes you can. $70.
Two days ago it was 85 degrees. Tomorrow it will be 50 degrees and raining. But I didn't have a wedding to photograph two days ago, and I do tomorrow. That's the way it goes, I guess, unless you live in Southern California. Rain and 50. After all, today is the first day of fall.
Family portraits - The Gochnour Family
One of the best things about working as a photographer is the people you get to meet, hang around, associate with.
Back in the early 19...well, a long time ago, I worked for company in Salt Lake called Gastronomy and one of the coolest people in the world was my boss, Mr. Jeff Gochnour. As a boss, he was fair, funny, honest, a good example of how far hard work can get you, and a thousand other worthy ideals.
After leaving the company, I never really saw him or heard from him, but last year, he was a guest at a wedding I was photographing. He said he was following me on Instagram and wanted me to photograph his family.
It was an honor for me to photograph the family of someone I admire so much, and after being around his kids, it's obvious that all the things I like about Jeff are rubbing off on his offspring.
Meet the Gochnour family.

Provo engagement portraits
Mackenzie and Dylan are getting married and I'm looking forward to photographing the wedding, soon.
I met Mackenzie when she was a photography student in my class at UVU. She then came to work at Justin Hackworth Photography in the fall of 2014 when she did a fantastic job as an intern. Her very first day at work we had a photoshoot at the studio with about 30 people, including the Mayor, Donny Osmond, Mindy Gledhill, C Jane Kendrick and a whole room of Provo movers and shakers. Not every day was as exciting as that. But that was a long time ago. Now, meet Mackenzie and Dylan.

Stephanie Nielson's back to school feast
She does it every year, plans a back to school feast a day or two before her kids head back to school. They have a fancy meal, all the kids get a stained glass star (they're creating quite a collection) and Stephanie and Christian pick a theme for their school year--something to remember to keep them going. A scripture, or an inspirational quote. I've photographed back to school night five or six times, now.
Here's the back to school night feast of 2016.

My baby is 10 days old. From the first day at hospital I was advised to top up feedings with formula, about 30 ml. I was told my milk wasn't coming yet and to offer the breast before the top up every time.
I later found out how bad this can be to establish breastfeeding and find myself in a vicious cycle. I am always offering the breast first and bb stays for hours if I let. He may fall asleep and then he cries. Sometimes I let him sleep and I'm not sure if he's starving or not. When he doesn't settle then I give the formula and feel depressed about it. I've been giving about 200ml in total a day. I'm not sure how much breast milk he's getting if any but he has lost only 30 grams in the past week which seems to be normal...
Please help. I'd like to fully breastfeed, how can it be possible.
Thank you

Whether it be in a giant wolf form or a eight-foot tall bipedal walking tank of death, werewolves are a staple of traditional myths and modern horror. These types of stories are very old but just how old are they?
Paranormal Podcast recently had an episode about werewolves. I agree with most of what is said on the show. The basis of these stories seem to lie with early homo sapiens who had to compete with wolves and other wild animals for survival. As with most enemies, humans had some respect/envy for their animal rivals. Spiritualism and the desire to be like the animal seem to have been the basis for rituals to hunt/be like the animals.
The podcast's guest, Dr. Bob Curran, makes the claim that the desire to be like animals went from good to different to evil because of the spread of Christianity. However, a global look at stories of people who can turn into animals are almost always horror-like. American Indian legends found throughout the United States contain numerous mentions of skin walkers. The Anicent Greeks had King Lycaon who was turned into wolfman as punishment. Same thing for the various werecreatures in Africa.
Werewolves and the other werecreatures seem to be instead the manifestation of fear of an enemy within. Their is an English-legend that really backs this assessment up. A fox had the ability to turn itself into a human. It would use this ability to trick travellers into following it into the woods where the fox-man would eat the people. It took a wise old woman to lure the fox into a pub where the truth was revealed to finally kill the fox-man. Paranoia and fear of a fifth column have allowed a natural, ancient rivalry of animals to become horror stories of beast hiding in men.

Coral Levang, Contributing writer
More than 11.1 millions have a history of invasive cancer -- meaning they beat the disease.
In fact, the five-year survival rate for all cancer sufferers in 2004 was 66 percent, up from 50 percent in 1977.
The positive trend reflects the progress of earlier detection and diagnosis, as well as improved treatment options. While surgery, radiation and hormone therapy can sometimes be used to treat cancer, several drugs have shown effectiveness in fighting it.
Here are some of the most common.
Avastin, also known as bevacizumab, is used to treat cancers affecting the lung, breast, rectum or colon. It is usually used in conjunction with other drug treatments, according to WebMD.com.
Avastin inhibits the growth of a tumor by blocking the formation of new blood vessels. It was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2004 for metastatic colon and non-small-cell lung cancer and in 2008 for use in metastatic breast cancer, according to FDA.gov.
Avastin's most common side effects occurred in more than 10 percent of people, according to Avastin.com, and included headache, high blood pressure, nosebleeds, rectal bleeding, too much protein in the urine, dry skin, inflammation of the skin, taste changes and tear production disorder.
The Web site also reports that more severe side effects can include gastrointestinal perforation, problems with wound healing, and severe bleeding issues.
Taxotere (docetaxel) has proven to be the only treatment, in combination with the drug prednisone, that significantly prolongs the lives of men with androgen-independent metastatic prostate cancer, according to FDA.gov.
Taxotere has also been indicated in combination with other drugs for the treatment of some patients with gastric, head and neck, non-small cell lung and breast cancers. Taxotere works by attacking cancer cells, but it also can destroy healthy cells, which leads to side effects, according to Taxotere.com.
The most common severe side effects reported for Taxotere are anemia, low white blood cell count, diarrhea, fatigue, mouth and throat irritations, nausea, vomiting, hair loss, rash, infusion-site reactions, numbness, tingling, burning or weakness in the hands and feet, nail changes, muscle or bone pain, excessive tearing and fluid retention.
Tamoxifen (nolvadex) was approved in 1998 by the FDA and has been used to treat millions of men and women diagnosed with hormone-receptor positive breast cancer by interfering with how estrogen affects specific cells.
It is also known to reduce the risk of breast cancer in those who are at a greater risk of developing the disease, according to Cancer.gov. Because Tamoxifen affects estrogen activation, it might cause several serious side effects, including blood clots, stroke and endometrial cancer, according to BreastCancer.org.
The most common side effects are hot flashes, nausea, fatigue, headache, constipation, bone pain, mood swings, depression, dry skin and loss of libido. Some women also report memory and eye problems.
Herceptin (trastuzumab) is approved to treat HER2-positive, metastatic breast cancer and is generally used with other drugs, according to WebMD.com.
It works by blocking chemical signals on the surface of the cancer cell in order to stop uncontrolled growth. It is also being tested to determine its effects on other cancers. WebMD.com and Herceptin.com report that the most common side effects associated with Herception are fever, nausea, vomiting, infusion reactions, diarrhea, infections, increased cough, headache, fatigue, shortness of breath, rash, low white and red blood cell counts, and muscle pain.
Abiraterone is a new drug still being studied for its effectiveness, but is shown to be effective against the hard-to-treat tumors of prostate cancer, according to WebMD.com.
Though still in the experimental stage, it seems to block the production of male hormones that trigger the growth of cancers in the prostate. It is reported that FDA approval is still several years away.
Because everyone is different, the side effects one may experience with any drug is not possible to predict with accuracy. Should you have any questions about any of these drugs or the side effects associated with them, talk to your physician.

Back from the attack and right on track
An apology was put on the Canadians blog but has since been removed.
Wow, strange couple of days. Thanks everyone, sucks all this had to happen.
I am seriously a non-drama type of guy.
I try to keep my life organized and simple and there is no room for BS.
So the last couple days have been rough.
The support from readers and bloggers here has been just incredible.
I have been deeply touched and it's not easy to touch me.
Anywho…back to what I do…
Just got back from the Rockies game.
I know our season is over, but it SUCKS to lose to the Padres…
I went with my buddy Andy to this game and had tickets to access the first row during batting practice.
The last couple of batting practices have been kind of boring and we were hoping for a little action.
Robert holding the sign for Emily—————–>
Dan was there with Emily and she had a sign with her.
Happy Birthday Emily
222 games.
WOW, think about that..she is only five.
I'm a lot older than five and I can't touch that number.
Her dad Dan's number of games is probably 4 times that..Amazing.
I really didn't get much batting practice action. One of the very last hits was nailed to the left of where I was standing and I managed to get within a foot of it and had to back off to avoid (getting in another snaggers personal space).
He caught it and I let him know it was a good catch..
On a cool note…I did get Mark Strittmeyer (bullpen catcher) to toss me a ball after answering his question.
He asked me if there was a 4th of July in Mexico? I replied, "sure there is, just like in every country"…
He tossed me the ball…As he was walking away I told him I saw him ask the same question on TV last week.
We both laughed and he took off…Thanks Mark !
So my non-snaggin streak is over..That ball counts right??
I looked over to see how Andy was doing and I was just in time to see him bobble a ball that had hit just below the yellow cushion.
Not to worry.
Shortly after that bobble, he caught a BP homerun and one of the Padres tossed him a ball just for just standing there and not begging.
Good Job Andy on your first time snaggin at Coors Field.
Jim..is your snaggin experience still fresh in your mind too?
I was telling Andy that one of the reasons I love batting practice is for that short period of time nothing else in the world matters.
For that hour and a half or whatever I only have one thing on my mind.
Getting a ball.
Not bills, not work, not life, not my hacked blog. Nada..
I can tune out everything….It just works for me..Andy said he could relate.
I managed to get Aaron cook to sign my ticket. Too bad he used a pen.
He signed for a minute or two and was really cool about it.
Rockies trailed most of this game. In the end we lost it 11-5.
Andy and I had one chance for a home run ball but Will Venable caught it right at the center field wall front of us and landed on his butt after getting his bells rung from his impact with the wall.
That was six feet away. Worth every penny..He got up and seemed fine.
Greg Reynolds allowed nine hits and seven runs in two plus innings. That pretty much sealed the Rockies fate this evening.
Mr Reynolds, I think that may be a wrap…
Tulo..nice job on the Grand Slam..thanks for hitting it exactlly where we were sitting right after we got up..
I will be at the game tomorrow with Hunter…Again..thanks everyone..D

Hey Don, I read his apology on his blog about 10:30. He actually has the audacity to tell people to make sure they have a hard password to figure out. Well, if idiots like him weren't trying to hack into someone else's blog, we wouldn't have to worry about it. Talk to you later. Dan
Chris forgot to say that he also hacked your yahoo and facebook accounts. and you sent him tickets stubs and other stuff, so why would he think you scammed him (thats what he said, that he thought you scammed him, so he hacked you) u. that was an apology cuz he got caught. he also said it was an accident.
hes a lier (about zack hample stuff), and he has sent nasty emails to me and other people who comment on zacks blog, when we ask him what seems to be a friendly question (that gets a one of his lies) and he writes nasty crap back just because we comment on zacks blog. i think he even started sending me nasty emails under a different email adresss, and i hadnt even sent him ANYTHING!
he said it was a coincidence, and not an attack on you don! you need to call his mom (and your lawyer) and make him give a REAL apology.
Don, as long as they are shutting down his blogs, make sure this one gets deleted, also.
I have to admit, that was a pretty pathetic apology. It makes no sense. If he thought you hacked his site last year (when you weren't even blogging yet), why would you spend your own money to send him gifts? Also, when he says, "This was not a personal attack on Don or his site, it was coincidence that I got in this easily. ", I'm not sure how he justifies that. He hacked 4 different accounts of yours, and it wasn't a personal attack? Then when he lectures everyone on their passwords, it sounds like he is calling you stupid for having such an "easy" password. I wouldn't let this go if I were you. By the way, it's not a "coincidence" that he got in to your site when he admits to repeatedly trying different passwords, it is called "illegal and malicious".
If I had power and Internet at home, believe you me I would have posted this sooner. I AM SO SORRY. I can't believe something like this happened, and I am incredibly amazed with your capacity to be so calm. I'm not going to lie–if something like this had happened to me, well… I'm not a forgiving, patient, or genuinely nice person. I'm really not. So bless you for not getting ugly like I would have.
Congratulations on getting Aaron Cook's autograph. And that is the CUTEST BABY I've seen in a looooong time.
Oh, and thanks to no Internet, I didn't know Tulo hit a grand slam… he may have single-handedly saved my fantasy team!
Good luck.

UNBELIEVABLE!! It is amazing that he took the time to post a comment on almost every single MLBlog there was. Not only did he scrap your 250+ hours he ended up wasting his own time as well. The apology was another waste of time but you have the right attitude. I think you went about it the right way for sure!Hopefully MLBlogs can help you piece some of it back together! It is always fun reading your posts!!Next season I am definitely going to head up to Denver for a few games!!Again I am sorry to hear about the mess he caused I guess parents need to be a bit more aware of what their kids are doing online!!
Hey Dan! Do I know you?? …. lol
Don't be shy! Check out my MLBlog and comment there too!
It says I don't have permission.
Ahhhh Dan ….. I figured it out …. you caught the 2 HR's in the playoff game correct? That is pretty cool to do in a playoff game! I have snagged 2 Home Runs 6 different times at games. 4 of them coming at Anaheim Stadium when they had the old End Zone seats when it was shared with the Rams. I got 37 Home Run balls in 1988 there.
I actually had 1 game where I caught 3 home runs!The best game for me getting 2 home runs however was May 9th, 1987 at Old Comiskey Park in Chicago. The upper deck seats in the outfield were closed this night. I had gone with a handful of friends and we were meeting some others there. We sat in LF on the edge of the last section people were allowed to sit in. In the 4th inning Murray blasted a HR to the upper deck in LF. I ran over and grabbed it. During the 5th inning one of our friends came around and said nice grab. They were all sitting in the same spot on the right field side. We went around there and in the top of the 6th inning Murray did it again. I ran over and picked that one up as well. Shortly after an usher told me that I was not suppose to go get that ball and he tried to take it back. I threw it to my buddy , ran up the stairs and he tossed it back to me as I got to the exit. We went downstairs and sat in the back of the lowerdeck. A few minutes after we got down there security went up to where we were! WHEW, just got out of there! I actually didn't realize that #1 they were both hit by Murray until a few years , yes years later, and I also had no idea that he had done the same thing the night before and was the first player in MLB history to do so.
Make sure you are going to http://ballhawk.mlblogs.com and not my old MLBlog of http://majorleagueballhawk.com
Try signing out and then back in. Some times I have problems as well.
That was a horrible thing that Chris did,, it is even worse when a kid does it, with baseball we think all kids are innocent, I guess not, I am just hearing about this now and I wanted to read his apology but he already deleated everything, he also deleated his youtube account. I cant understand why someone would do that. That kid always seemed a little strange to me,, he tries to be just like Hample, which i dont care but he is just wierd. Again I am sorry what happened to you and we good fans need to stick together,

A Florida state attorney's release Thursday of FBI reports surrounding the death of Trayvon Martin shows that his accused killer and self-appointed neighborhood watchman had a pattern of calling authorities about criminal activities and safety issues in the neighborhood.
The 284-page report from special prosecutor Angela Corey shows that George Zimmerman made a half dozen calls to Sanford police in the months leading up to his fatal February altercation with Martin, 17. Zimmerman has been charged with second-degree murder in connection with the unarmed African-American's death. Zimmerman, 28, has said he acted in self-defense.
Just hours after the shooting, Zimmerman told investigators that the shooting followed a life-and-death struggle during which the teen told him, "You're going to die tonight."
The report is part of a Justice Department investigation to determine if Martin's civil rights were violated and Zimmerman's actions were racially motivated, and its findings could be used by both prosecutors and Zimmerman's defense team.
In one of the calls to Sanford police, Zimmerman complained about children playing and running in the street. "It's habitual," he told the dispatcher. "I'm just concerned for their safety and the drivers in the neighborhood."
Zimmerman identified himself in several calls as a neighborhood watch volunteer, telling a police dispatcher one time that there were several break-ins in the area. Four calls were about black men he witnessed in the neighborhood following the break-ins.
Zimmerman described all four as "suspicious" and people that he had never seen before. In almost every case, he said he didn't know what they were doing, but they looked suspicious. In one case, he said two men were "loitering" in a white Chevy. In another, a man in a black jacket was walking around the side of a neighbor's house.
Zimmerman was arrested 44 days after the shooting. The delay triggered protests nationwide and the departure of Sanford's police chief.
Zimmerman was released last month on $1 million bond after having his previous $150,000 bond revoked after prosecutors presented evidence that he had lied about his finances. He is currently in a safe house at an undisclosed location.

Democrats See Political Opportunity in Newtown Deaths
Ed Rendell, former Pennsylvania Governor and influential Democrat, drew no gasps of surprise or shocked response from his fellow liberal travelers when he recently articulated the left's position that "the good thing about Newtown is, it was so horrific that I think it galvanized Americans to a point where the intensity on our side is going to match the intensity on their side."
Approving nods and continued conversation ensued.
I would like to presume the vast majority of Democrats and Obama voters consider Rendell and his fellow liberals to be pariahs, not just for what he said, but because they truly believe their political ends justify the slaughter of twenty innocent children and lifelong emotional wounds endured by the friends and families of those souls. What's missing is public national outrage from the left, fearsomely shredding the reputations of Rendell, Alex Wagner and the rest of the MSNBC panel. They need to be taught that the murders of children are not "good," even when it helps them market their political beliefs. Where's the cringing outrage from liberals?
The next question is, "Who is this "our side?'"
"Our side" for Rendell and his liberals is not any group of Americans who value the lives of our children above all else. "Our side" in this context must describe people who are convinced that military style rifles are the central cause of violence, and their dissolution would bring ultimate relief. The "other side" would then be dangerous people who keep scary guns in their homes and cite dangerously radical writings from frightening people who believe "Firearms stand next in importance to the constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence." Or, "The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."
You know, radicals like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and other such miscreants.
Ben Shapiro of Breitbart.com articulated this point well, explaining to the provocateur liberal royalist Piers Morgan that we may not need protection from tyranny today, but we may in 50 or 100 years from now. "They may not turn on me; they may not turn on my children. But the fact is this: history is replete with democracies going tyrannical. It happened in France in the 19th century, in Spain in the last century, happened in Germany, in Italy. It has happened repeatedly, it has happened in Japan."
These words from people not on "our side" frighten liberals who have come to trust government so much that you will hear them speak earnestly of abolishing the second amendment. Thankfully, we do not live in a time of tyranny and so the thoughtful protestations of our founders are easily dismissed. And while those who exercise their first amendment rights in a country founded to protect such individuals, they might want to remember that the second amendment is the real enforcement of the first.

PRINCESS ANNE, MD- Students from the University of Maryland Eastern Shore will join 47 other Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in a battle of academic prowess at the 21st annual Honda Campus All-Star Challenge, the nation's largest academic competition held between HBCUs.
More than 250 HBCU college students will travel to Orlando, Fla. to participate in the two-day competition, April 11-12, which will showcase their knowledge in the areas of world history, science, literature, religion, the arts, social science and popular culture. Teams will vie for the chance to win grant money for their school with the winner walking away with the top prize of $50,000. In all, a total of $328,000 in institutional grants will be awarded through this year's program.
"Our varsity team has been practicing for months," said Dr. James White, associate vice president for Student Life and Enrollment Management at UMES and head coach for the team. "Assistant coach Lisa Purnell and I have set our goal as a repeat of UMES' 2003 performance, when the team of Matthew Lang, Janiece Blackmon, Earl Holland Jr., Quinnisha Smith and Mumbi Thande-Kamiru finished second behind Morehouse in the national finals. We are thankful to Honda to have this opportunity to showcase some of UMES' best and brightest students."
During the 21 years that UMES has participated in the national academic competition they have a cumulative grants earning of $104,000.
This year the "Great 48," as they are called, will be split into eight divisions and compete in a modified round robin format. The top two teams from each division will advance to the "Sweet 16," and compete in a single elimination playoff. The final two teams will then compete for the National Champion title.
"The Honda Campus All-Star Challenge was created to shine a spotlight on the academic excellence exemplified at America's Historically Black Colleges and Universities," said Marc Burt, senior manager, Office of Inclusion and Diversity, American Honda Motor Company. "We at Honda are proud to say that 21 years after this program's inception, HCASC continues to not only highlight the great minds present at our nation's HBCUs, but it also provides, through grant giving, an opportunity for the company to invest one of the country's largest pipelines for professional and academic talent."
The Honda Campus All-Star Challenge is one of Honda's largest and longest running philanthropic initiatives in the U.S. Since 1989, HCASC has brought together the nation's best and brightest academic competitors from the America's top HBCUs. In addition to providing students a venue for friendly competition, the program encourages relationship building, intellectual excellence and the development of values that define good character. Throughout its 21 year history HCASC has touched over 50,000 students, awarded more than $5 million in grants and continues to be the only annual academic competition of its kind.

610: A dead world
As soon as juubi appears suddenly the others watch as Madara floats into the air as juubi energy rockets towards him lifting him into the air. Madara does a series of hand signs and instantly everyone is hit by a flash of blinding light then darkness.
Naruto: "Whats going on? What is this!"
Kirama: "Naruto quick in here with me!"
Hachibi: "Bee we need to talk!"
Suddenly everyone instantly collapses to the ground except for madara who proceeds to walk towards the juubi. Naruto and Kirama are standing in the space inside naruto's mind. Naruto scowls at the kirama.
Naruto: "What was so important that we had to go in here? There is an important battle going on?"
Kirama: "This was the only way to protect your mind from the effects of juubi's genjutsu."
Naruto: "What has happened to the others?"
Kirama: "If bee made it back inside the hachibi in time than he is safe but everyone else on the planet is now trapped in a genjutsu."
Naruto: "Everyone!"
Kirama: "Well not everyone. You are just unconscious since being in here shielded your mind from the juubi's attack."
Naruto: "What do we do now?"
Kirama: "We wait for madara to leave the area and disregard us. Once its clear then we can get up."
Naruto: "But what do we do about the others?"
Kirama: "We can not help them. The only thing now that will revive them is destroying the juubi but we have to hurry."
Naruto: "Why?"
Kirama: "Idiot haven't you figured it out yet?"
Naruto: "...."
Kirama: "Fine I will explain. The plan madara is using is basicly to put everyone in a genjutsu but the problem is not everyone can survive long in a genjutu."
Kirama flashes back to images of people in a small village laying unconscious in the street. Children lay unconscious in a play ground. A resturant is full of unconscious people as smoke begins to flow from the kitchen.
Kirama: "Without the body receiving its proper maintainence its not long before the body begins to weaken. In a few weeks tops everyone here will start dieing off one by one until only madara is left."
Kirama flashes back to a hospital full of everyone unconscious as a person near by convulses as a heart monitor suddenly flatlines.
Kirama: "Soon Madara will be a lone human on a dead world if we do not stop him. In some ways that is what madara truly wants. He wants a world without enemies for him to fight where he can enjoy a world of doing whatever he wants without anything to stop him. The ultimate control for the ultimate control freak."
Kirama flashes back to an image of madara walking through a village of everyone laying on the ground unconscious. Madara steps on a pair of glasses dropped by an elderly old man whos image is reflected as he lays there unconscious.
Kirama: "Now you understand what we must do and the time frame we have left to do it. We must kill madara and destroy gedo maza now before the world and everyone in it dies a lingering painful death."
Naruto opens his eyes to see everyone else on the ground unconscious including Obito. Naruto heads over to stab Obito with a kunai but Bee stands in his way in normal mode.
Hachibi: "There will be time for that later naruto. Bee didn't make it in time so I have assumed control of his body while his mind remains in stasis."
Naruto: "Do you know where madara is?"
Hachibi: "I have some idea. He is right now heading south from here."
Naruto: "Than we gotta catch up with him fast before we lose track of him."
Naruto and bee rush off in the direction of madara went as guy and kakashi continue to lay on the ground unconscious. In konoha far below the ground, Sasuke turns to Orochimaru in surprise as they stop looking at a large mural on a cave wall.
Sasuke: "What is going on up there? Everything is suddenly silent up there?"
Orochimaru: "Madara must have successfully carried out his plan and the whole planet is now trapped in genjutsu."
Sasuke: "How come I am immune?"
Orochimaru: "We must be safely out of reach of madara's genjutsu. Now finish studying this mural and then we can go up top to see what is going on."
Sasuke: "Hmm So thats how he did it."
Sasuke continue to read a large mural which shows the image of the Rikudou Senin fighting the juubi.

After announcing the update of the lineup of MacBook notebooks, Steve Jobs, chief executive officer of Apple, said that the company currently has no plans to release an inexpensive mobile computer, or a netbook. Mr. Jobs did not reveal any reasons for not launching a cheap notebook other than stating that the market for such class of devices is not really large.
"In terms of netbooks, that's a nascent market that's just getting started. We'll see how it goes," Mr. Jobs said, reports Beta News web-site.
It is true that the market of netbooks is relatively small right now, but there may be stronger reasons for Apple to keep away from netbooks.
Apple has always sold its systems at a premium price compared to machines by companies like Dell. That policy allowed the company to gain demanding customer base: Apple's clients may not be extreme-performance hungry, but they tend to like style and adequate performance for their tasks. Modern netbooks can allow Internet browsing or email exchange, but when it comes to movies or multimedia, they give up. Multimedia is definitely something that Apple pins a lot of hopes on.
Apple released its Mac Mini desktop in order to attract attention of consumers with the low price, but the device has never got popular. In case Apple releases a netbook featuring Intel Atom processor at a bargain price-point, it may attract new customers, but performance of Intel Atom along with supporting core-logic and its graphics core are so low that many end-users are likely to remain unsatisfied not only with the particular device, but with Apple in general.
Apple can still release a netbook once it will be able to pack desired feature-set into a 7" case at a very low price-point. However, until there are no fast enough central processing units (CPUs) for netbooks as well as proper graphics cores, the company will hardly enter this emerging market with its "MacBook Net".
