To use and in general and why
Sniper because i like to snipe !
and medic because im good as him !
and spy because i love deception in games !
As long as the team I'm playing against is not spy checking, than spy, otherwise heavy.
Pyro is my favourite class, followed by Sniper. I still play it daily on Steam.
I usually pick scout but sometimes I'll alternate between him,sniper,engineer,or spy

The cumulative impact of 6.4 billion humans (a global population which is increasing about 90 million each year) is affecting, to a lesser or greater degree, every component of the Earth System and related processes and cycles: its Geosphere (Atmosphere, Hydrosphere, Lithosphere, and Cryosphere), Biosphere, Climatic Processes, Hydrologic Cycle, and Biogeochemical Cycles. The two key scientific questions that must be answered for each of these components, processes, and cycles are: (1) What is the natural variability of each; and (2) Are human activities causing changes that exceed natural variability? For example, direct measurements of carbon dioxide composition of the Earth's atmosphere (since 1958), coupled with measurements of carbon dioxide contained in glacier ice cores from Antarctica proves that the current composition of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere is now more than 35.7 percent higher than natural variability of the past 800,000 years. The cryosphere is an element of the Earth System that is extremely sensitive to changes in regional and global temperature, especially so in the polar regions. (See the Arctic Climate Impact Assessment (ACIA) report published by Cambridge University Press in 2004).
The multi-Federal agency U.S. Climate Change Science Program is directed at achieving a better understanding of natural variability and human impact on the Earth System through studies of past, present, and projected changes in the geosphere and biosphere. The Glacier Studies Project, a part of the U.S. Geological Survey's contribution to the national effort, is directed at studying changes in the glacier component of the Earth's cryosphere, one of the four elements of the geosphere. The cryosphere (composed of glaciers; sea, lake, and river ice; snow cover; and permafrost) is particularly sensitive to changes in regional and global climate. Temperature changes in the Arctic are decreasing the areal distribution of discontinuous and continuous permafrost in the northern hemisphere. Seasonal changes in sea ice and snow cover and annual and decadal changes in glacier areas can be monitored regionally and globally with image and other data from Earth-orbiting satellites. To stay at the leading edge of satellite and airborne remote sensing technology and data analysis of glaciers (and other dynamic landforms), USGS and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Earth Science Enterprise scientists are collaborating on analysis of satellite images from new satellite systems and with geodetic airborne and satellite laser altimetry surveys of glaciers to detect changes in area and surface elevation of glaciers. The overall objective of the project is to use past, present, and future remotely sensed data, supplemented with ground-based observational data, including historical data such as maps and photographs, where available, to construct and analyze long-term data sets of fluctuations of glaciers from a regional and global perspective. The 11-volume Satellite Image Atlas of Glaciers of the World Task 1 uses Landsat images from 1972 to 1981 to establish a global baseline of glacier area. The 24-map Coastal-Change and Glaciological Maps of Antarctica Task 2 uses two sets of Landsat images (mid-1970's and late 1980's/early 1900's), September/October 1997 RADARSAT images, Landsat 7 ETM+ images, and other satellite data, where available, to define precisely grounded or floating glacier ice. Task 2 is directed at mapping changes in the coast of Antarctica, using ArcGIS, ERDAS Imagine, and available geodetic ground-control information (unclassified and classified source materials) derived from the RADARSAT image mosaic and associated DEM of Antarctica, in formal cooperation with the British Antarctic Survey and Antarctic survey institutions in other Antarctic Treaty nations.

changes in the glacier component of the Earth's cryosphere
The U.S. Geological Survey has played the lead national and international role in using satellite image data to provide baseline data and other information about glaciers from a global perspective. In Task 1, 7 volumes have been published of the 11-volume Satellite Image Atlas of Glaciers of the World (USGS Professional Paper 1386-A-K): B Antarctica, C, Greenland; E, Glaciers of Europe; G, Glaciers of the Middle East and Africa; H, Glaciers of Irian Jaya, Indonesia, and New Zealand; I, Glaciers of South America; and J, Glaciers of North America. Completion of the remaining 4 volumes remains the project's highest priority. The 4 remaining volumes in order of production (e.g., editing, technical reviews, preparation of computer graphics, page formatting, printing) are as follows: 1386-K, Glaciers of Alaska [in final preparation (graphics and page formatting); to be published in late 2005 or early 2006]; 1386-D, Glaciers of Iceland (in initial preparation; to be published in late 2006); 1386-F, Glaciers of Asia (in final preparation, to be published in early or mid-2006); 1386-A, State of the Earth's Cryosphere at the Beginning of the 21st Century: Glaciers, Snow Cover, Floating Ice, and Permafrost, including 1:50,000,000-scale Map of the Earth's Dynamic Cryosphere (to be written in late 2005; to be published in early 2006). The 11 volumes are published in two formats: printed books and digital (accessible via the USGS website). For Task 2, completion and publication of the Coastal-Change and Glaciological Maps of Antarctica series (USGS Geologic Investigations Maps I-2600-A-Y) will provide critical baseline glaciologic and basic cartographic information about changes in both the grounded and floating ice margins of Antarctica. More than 700 Landsat 1-5 MSS and/or TM, RADARSAT, and other satellite data have been analyzed to provide, for the first time, advanced GIS and image processing technologies to: 1. Prepare 1:1,000,000-scale baseline maps (in both printed and digital formats) of the coast of Antarctica, using accurate Landsat MSS, TM, RADARSAT, Landsat 7 ETM+ images, and other satellite images. 2. Compile 23 accurate coastal-change and glaciological maps [9 maps (A-I)(in both printed and digital formats; 14 maps (J-X) in digital format] which show coastal changes in floating (ice fronts) and grounded (ice walls) glacier ice during the past 30 years. 3. Determine selected glacier-ice velocities in selected coastal regions. 4. Compile a comprehensive inventory of named and unnamed outlet glaciers and ice streams. 5. Compile a 1:5,000,000-scale map (in both printed and digital formats) of the continent of Antarctica. A prototype map of the series was published in 1997 (I-2600-F). Two maps [I-2600-F (2d ed.) and I-2600-G] were published (paper and digital formats) in 2003. One map (I-2600-E) was published in 2004. Map I-2600-D is in press. Five more maps (I-2600-A-C and H-I) are currently in production. The three maps of the Antarctic Peninsula (I-2600-A-C) are being done as a joint effort with the British Antarctic Survey. The current production schedule is to ready all remaining maps(I-2600-J-X) for publication, in digital format(pubs.usgs.gov website), and the 1:5,000,000-scale map (in both printed and digital formats) by the end of FY2007.
The 13-Federal agency U.S. Climate Change Science Program (CCSP), the successor program to the 9 Federal agency U.S. Global Change Research Program, and Federal Government decisionmakers are the primary clients for the results of the research. The CCSP will link national programs in a multinational effort to better understand natural and human-induced changes in the Earth System. Glaciers are important indicators of global climate change because of their response, both areally and volumetrically, to changes in regional and global climate. In addition, approximately 75 m of potential sea-level rise is currently sequestered from the global hydrologic cycle by glacier ice "stored" on land. A rise in sea level, from both the melting of glaciers and steric increase, is a predicted consequence of global climate warming. (cf. Fitzharris, B.B., author-editor, 1996, The cryosphere: Changes and their impacts; in Climate Change 1995. Impacts, adaptations and mitigation of climate change: IPCC Report, p. 241-265). One of the more robust predictions of the latest global circulation models (GCMs), is that warming trends during the next 50-100 years will be strongly amplified in both polar regions [see National Research Council, 2001, Climate Change Science. An analysis of some key questions: Washington, D.C., Committee on the Science of Climate Change, National Academy Press, 28 p. (Prepared at the request of the Bush Administration) (see especially Chapter 5, Observed Climate Change During the Industrial Era, p. 16-17), and the Arctic Climate Impact Assessment (2005).]. Given the potential impact of this prediction on the sensitive polar regions, it is crucial to monitor the cryosphere for changes during the next 100 years or more. The results of this project will provide substantive evidence of changes in the cryosphere based on systematic, long-term monitoring and will be useful in establishing a credible scientific baseline necessary in reducing the uncertainty contained in climate models. The breadth of information generated provides ample evidence of the long-term natural variability that affects the cryosphere and global climate processes. The research responds to the Director's FY2006 science objectives (integrated landscape monitoring) and the Assoc. Dir. for Geology's FY2006 science objectives: Goal 4, Element 4.2, Activity 4.2.1 (Monitoring, Modeling, and Forecasting of Ecosystem and Climate Change).

We tend to think of ourselves as the smartest animals on earth. After all, we've built such technological wonders as the Internet, the internal combustion engine and sneakers that light up when you take a step. But despite our big, juicy frontal lobe, many of us still forget to pick up the kids after practice due to our inferior memory, one area where a whole bunch of animals leave us in the dust. For instance ...
6Chimpanzees' Visual Memory Can Top Yours
Try this quick test:
Glance at the image below for two seconds only. Don't cheat. Then cover it with your hand and remember exactly where each digit was, in order.
Can't do it? Congratulations, you just got your ass handed to you by a chimp.
In a Kyoto University study, a bunch of chimps were taught to count from one to nine, which is impressive enough already, but then each of the subjects was shown some randomly scattered numbers on a computer screen. The numbers were then covered and the subjects were required to identify the position of each number in order (putting us at Cracked at a distinct disadvantage due to our crippling inability to list numbers in any order but descending).
How did they do? Startlingly well, as the quite frankly insane video proves:
Scientists attribute this impressive display of working memory to "eidetic imagery," or what is commonly known as photographic memory. You've probably heard that term in reference to people who remember every little thing that's ever happened to them, but in this case it just means the chimps seem to have a really good visual memory -- they can remember details of an image even if they just glimpsed it for a couple of seconds.
"I swear to God, man, I thought that stall was unoccupied."
And more amazingly, their performance did not decrease when the time spent looking at the image was shortened -- the chimps were memorizing all of the numbers almost instantaneously. Meanwhile, human subjects who were given the same test exhibited a steep decline in performance with the decrease in memorization time, an infraction that no doubt earned them a severe beating from their chimp overlords.
5Sea Lions Never Forget
Quick, what is your most lucid memory from exactly 10 years ago? Let's rephrase that -- what is your most lucid memory unrelated to that whole twin towers thing? Do you think you could remember the details of a card trick your uncle taught you, assuming you never saw or performed that card trick again between then and now? If not, then you just got outdone by a sea lion.
"That's your card. Fucking idiot."
Categorized by scientists as the cutest kind of lion, the sea lion is usually thought of as a lovable attention whore that will do just about anything for a couple of raw fish. But while trainers have spent years teaching sea lions cheap parlor tricks, they have also discovered that these creatures have an amazing long-term memory, which will be exploited in order to teach them more cheap parlor tricks.
Lars K. Jensen
Sea lions: Whores of the ocean.
Scientists at the University of California, Santa Cruz were able to teach a sea lion named Rio the concept of "sameness" by showing Rio a symbol and then showing her one card with the same symbol and one with a different one. If she correctly identified the same symbol, she was rewarded with a fish, which she would eat with all the tear-filled shame you would expect from a sea lion that's given up her last shred of dignity. This level of advanced cognitive functioning is impressive in itself, but Rio's biggest feat would come a decade later.
Her name is Rio and she flops across the sand ...
After 10 freaking years, Rio was given a similar test, only this time it used numbers and letters instead of symbols. She was able to identify the numbers and letters that were the same, despite the fact that she had not performed the trick again at any point in the last decade. This is the longest known retention period of any animal species, and is all the more impressive due to the 25-year lifespan of the sea lion. We'll see how well you remember the things you learned at 30 when you turn 70.
"It was something about alcohol and brain cells. Probably not important."
Scientists believe that this memory serves to help sea lions identify prey that they may only encounter once every few years. Or to help the sea lion exact horrible revenge on its slave masters many years after the fact.

The morning started out with Tory Burch's spring collection runway show.
As I was walking into Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center, one of the venues of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, I spotted Kara Ross, the jewelry and accessories designer, wife of Dolphins principal owner Steve Ross and a part-time Palm Beacher.
"I admire what Tory has done, and how she's built her brand in such a short time," said Ross. "Her stuff is just great and I'm sure the collection for spring will be right on the mark."

Wisconsin edges Alaska-Anchorage
Barnes, Dahl score for Badgers
Landon Peterson stopped 21 of 22 shots as Wisconsin beat Alaska-Anchorage 2-1 on Saturday for a sweep of their Western Collegiate Hockey Association series.
The Badgers (11-9-5, 8-5-5) improved to 10-1-2 in their last 13 games while the struggling Seawolves (3-15-6, 1-15-4) lost for the 11th time in 12 games.
All of the scoring occurred in the second period. Tyler Barnes and Jefferson Dahl gave Wisconsin a 2-0 lead. Jordan Kwas answered for UAA.
Peterson had seven saves in each period, while USS goalie Chris Kamal made 17 stops.
the Badgers scored two power play goals to defeat Alaska-Anchorage 5-2, with Michael Mersch scoring both power play goals.
Wisconsin hadn't scored with the man advantage in its last seven games and had scored only two power play goals in its last 50 chances.
Mark Zengerle, Tyler Barnes and Nic Kerdiles added goals for the Badgers in the series opener.
Joel Rumpel had to make only 12 saves to get Friday's win in goal for Wisconsin.

Robert Bork, former Supreme Court nominee, dies
Bork was 85
Published On: Dec 19 2012 09:00:53 AM CST Updated On: Dec 19 2012 09:46:05 AM CST
Conservative judge Robert Bork died early Wednesday at the age of 85 at his home in Virginia, two sources close to his family told CNN.
In 1987, President Ronald Reagan nominated Bork as a Supreme Court Justice, only to have the nomination fall apart in a contentious confirmation battle after left-leaning groups opposed Bork's conservative judicial philosophies.
This fall, he was tapped to co-chair Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's justice advisory committee.

Corridor work to last well into August
People driving between Buckhannon and Elkins along Route 33 on Corridor H recently have surely noticed the on-going road construction in the area.
The road work is part of a pavement preservation and concrete restoration project on a 4.2-mile stretch of the highway that is scheduled to be completed by mid-to-late August or earlier if weather permits, officials said.
"We want to let everyone one know that their cooperation is appreciated," said Travis Ray of the state Division of Highways office in Elkins. "We ask that people slow down and be patient for their own safety and the safety of the workers involved."
The work also includes joint repair and a final diamond-grinding process that is used to make a smoother driving surface. The project has been contracted to Chester Bross Construction Company, based in Missouri.
According to Charles Riling, a representative from the DOH, there are other construction projects in process throughout the area, including an extension to Corridor H from Davis to Bismar,k which is projected to be wrapping up in late 2014.
Other projects include a paving contract from Davis to the Grant-Tucker County line that will finish next month, as well as a concrete restoration project in Upshur County on Route 33 that is similar to the current one on Corridor H, officials said.

Dear members,
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
Great chapter! I really hope it's not Obito.
the rasengan from naruto his tobis so hard that not only his mask break, but
also his FACE. so it will be full of blood and wounds that we cant even recognize his face.
Watch, next chapter will get back to Sasuke and his best friend, Orochimaru. -_-
You hung us good, Kishi... YOU HUNG US GOOOOOD..
:d :d :d :d

yes kihsi is trolling us with small fake hints on who it could be, he did it with with madara before it became oboius even then he kept it up making us think he was madara even when it was obius he wasn't. hes trolling kakashi thats what tobi is doing making him lose his cool. next chapter his face will be revealed and it won't be obito otheriwse it won't be surpising it has to be someone we dididn't expect so he build up some tenseion between tobi and kakashi to make us believe it was obito.
and if i'm wrong wow kishi way to let it out long before he f*cking mask came off
That Will Be The Ultimate Trolling! :noc:
Awesome chapter , can't wait for next week to finaly find out who tobi is , so excited !!!!

Lol u didn't know kakashi had chakra on the same level as naruto since the war started
Epic chapter. Naruto is so broken with his Bijuu Mode clones.

Same. But not because I don't like the idea of it being him. But because they just implied it is him with the whole "borrowed ability" comment and I don't want it to be a blatantly obvious reveal. I want it to be something nobody is expecting
I hate not being able to make my own thread of my own ugh
Yep. Or Kishi trolls and goes to Kages & Sasuke for 1 chapter
who wud have thought that plan wud have been so perfect! rasengan is ands down best fghting jutsu to have....

sadly it was a rasengan to the mask
After his face gets pwned he still will claim he is not one trololololol
Finally!!! So awesome. Can't wait for next week, though would they go to madara or sasuke? Nah, kishi wouldn't at such a climax point.

Missing Enrollment Data Reminder
In an effort to provide AYP
participation calculations based on accurate first-day-of-testing enrollment
data, the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) is providing an electronic
early data correction window now through
During the data collection process, the number of students enrolled on the first day of testing should have been entered for each school with one or more tested grades and then these enrollment data should have been approved at both the school and district levels by the district superintendent.
To date, about 80 schools in about 70 districts have not entered any enrollment data for their schools in the SchoolHouse system. All district superintendents have been contacted directly by ISBE Student Assessment staff regarding this situation. In order for ISBE to use the data in final AYP participation calculations, separate approvals are required on SchoolHouse for each school and for the district as a whole (all schools).
Unless these data are entered and subsequently approved by the district superintendent, AYP participation cannot be calculated and the affected school(s) will be considered as not having made AYP.
If enrollment data have been entered for a school, but these data have not been approved at both the school and district levels, the district superintendent should review the instructions on pages 21 – 23 (HOW TO APPROVE ENROLLMENTS) in the Illinois Data Collection User's Guide, which is available on the ISBE Web site at www.isbe.net/assessment
If you still have questions about the approval process after reviewing the instructions, please contact Pearson Educational Measurement at 800/627-7990, state code 814.

Heralds and Heraldry at The National Archives
The National Archives holds possibly the greatest collection of untapped source material for heralds and heraldry in this country. This lecture examines evidence stretching back over eight and a half centuries: seals, illuminated manuscripts, medieval rolls, treaties, grants of arms, state occasions, architectural drawings, military badges and even wooden chests. The result is an astonishing and colourful display of what is often unknown heraldic material. Adrian Ailes is a Principal Records Specialist at The National Archives and in 1997 organised an exhibition on Heraldry in the Public Records. He is a Fellow of the Heraldry Society and an academician of the Academie internationale d'héraldique.
Shop Workers: Tracing Your Retail Ancestors
We all go shopping, albeit with varying degrees of enthusiasm, and many of us have also worked in shops. It was the same for our ancestors, and although the records may not always be easy to find, they are out there if you know where to look. There is also a wealth of background material to show us what our ancestors' shopping and shopkeeping experience was like.

Donors celebrate L. William Seidman Center
Posted on October 09, 2013
The formal dedication of the L. William Seidman Center October 9, was attended by most of the 600 donors who helped raise $40 million for the construction of the center which opened for classes in the spring.
The four story, 127,643-square-foot center is named for Bill Seidman, founding chair of Grand Valley's Board of Trustees and former FDIC chair. Several members of the Seidman family attended the dedication and toured the building.
President Thomas J. Haas thanked donors and said constructing a building to house the Seidman College of Business was a dream of Bill Seidman's. "We are celebrating the future," said Haas. "This building is a game changer and gives our students the tools they need for future success. It is a perfect tribute to Bill and the Seidman family."
Rich DeVos, co-founder of Amway and general chair of the Grand Valley University Foundation, said the vision behind the Seidman Center was caring. "This was all about people caring for people — for the young people coming up. That's the heart of a community," said DeVos. "I was able to visit a classroom today in this new building and I took the opportunity to tell students, 'You can do it. You can achieve whatever you want.'"
Elizabeth Fredericks, a senior and an accounting and finance major, said business students love their new home. "I can speak on behalf of the students and say our needs were addressed from technology to study space," said Fredericks. "We already feel closely connected to our professors now that we are all in one building. It makes us want to dig in and learn more."
The center supports 142 faculty and staff in the Seidman College of Business and also houses the state headquarters and regional office of the Small Business and Technology Development Center, Van Andel Global Trade Center, Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Center for Leadership and Innovation, Center for Business Ethics, Family Owned Business Institute and Family Business Alliance.
Construction of the Seidman Center was a major investment in the downtown Grand Rapids area, totaling more than $40 million in land acquisition, site preparation, construction and infrastructure improvement costs. In its 40-year history, the Seidman College of Business has grown from 145 students to more than 3,000.
A community open house is planned for Saturday, October 12, from 1-5 p.m. Members of the community will have an opportunity to tour the Seidman Center and connect with faculty, students and alumni. The family friendly event will feature self-guided tours, live music and light refreshments.

America's economy is in the midst of a Great Stagnation that almost rivals the Great Depression of the 1930s, and the nation is fighting a costly and prolonged worldwide war against relentless Islamic terrorism.
Tax reform talk is in the air, so it time to hold onto your wallet. But whenever the discussion turns to taxes, it's always tax someone else - they have more.
In January, the Georgia Economic Developers Association hosted more than 50 state legislators at a luncheon to celebrate economic development accomplishments over the past 12 months. We also launched a year of celebration complete with a proclamation from Gov. Nathan Deal, as 2013 marks GEDA's 50th Anniversary.
The campaign in Georgia and in many states for adult and juvenile criminal justice reform has highlighted an alarming trend: Women represent a small portion of the prison population but their numbers are rising rapidly, with serious consequences for the children and communities they leave behind.
In announcing his wrongheaded proposal to increase the minimum wage to $9 an hour, President Obama spoke in lofty terms: "In the wealthiest nation on earth," he said in his State of the Union address last month, "no one who works full time should have to live in poverty."
Nearly 8 million Americans go to work every day yet still live below the poverty line. That is in part because the federal minimum wage is too low.
Today's place kickers would consider those upright, square-toe-shoed, straight-on kickers of the past to be relics. Antiques. Like Durward Pennington, whose extra point in the 1959 Georgia-Auburn game enabled the Bulldogs to clinch the Southeastern Conference championship.
The Affordable Care Act will create a healthier population less burdened by excessive medical bills and the fear of economic ruin from getting sick.
With unemployment stubbornly high and economic growth shrinking, it is clear the economy is headed in the wrong direction. And the Affordable Care Act is a major cause.
With about a week to go until the previously agreed-upon budget cuts called the sequester, some Republicans and virtually all Democrats in Washington are searching for a new agreement that will avoid those budget cuts and replace them with either fewer cuts, some tax increases, or nothing at all.
What did you get in the mail last Saturday? If you are like most people, you got a few advertising flyers, a few mass-mailed solicitations asking for donations, others telling you can save on car insurance. There may also have been a couple of bills, which - if you're like a growing number of Americans - you had already received online. For most people, this uninspiring haul is hardly the highlight of their day.
As President Obama contemplates his second term, he has been talking to historians about another two-term president, Dwight D. Eisenhower.
It's possible that Hillary Clinton may decide not to run for president in 2016, but there is very little reason to believe such a decision would be a result of her handling of the Benghazi attacks.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will soon become Citizen Clinton once more. She'll rake in huge speaking fees, juicy book deals, corporate board seats and dozens more honorary doctoral degrees. But none of that can ever wash away what happened at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
As a candidate in 2008, Barack Obama emphatically stated that medical marijuana use was an issue best left to the states. One of the first promises he made as the newly elected president was that he was "not going to be using Justice Department resources to try to circumvent state laws." This was even reiterated formally in the so-called Ogden memo of 2009, in which the Department of Justice instructed U.S. attorneys that federal enforcement should apply only to medical marijuana operations that were not in clear compliance with state law.

I despised Ronald Reagan long before he ran for president. I despised him still more when he took office.

Week-end Book Review: What's for Lunch? How Schoolchildren Eat Around the World, by Andrea Curtis and Yvonne DuivenvoordenSaturday, April 13th, 2013
Reviewed by Charlotte Richardson:
Andrea Curtis, photography by Yvonne Duivenvoorden,
What's for Lunch? How Schoolchildren Eat Around the World
Red Deer Press, 2012.
Ages: 8+
What's for Lunch? uses a comparison of school lunches around the world as a jumping off point for a wide-ranging discussion of food issues presented in a poster-like layout. Yvonne Duvenvoorden's attractive photographs of the lunches will draw children in, as will Sophie Casson's appealingly goofy illustrations. Children will learn not only about the varieties of foods served in schools globally but also about their presentation…

Dude it is 72 virgins. Imagine having a non functioning penis with 72 virgins. Allah is a cruel jokester
id rather have 72 whores any day of the week
TheCaptn' is not a registered proctologist. His post are for his amusement only. Please seek proper medical advice if symptoms persist.
72 virgin sheep.
what if you like your women sloppy and loose..do you switch religions or just not blow shit up??
what ive never understood about the 72 virgin thing is that they never say if there male or female haha imagine blowing your self up and when you get to the after life theres 72 dude with huge boners
having abs because you are skinny is like a women having tits because she's fat
It shows you how deluded they are to believe such bullshit. Even a ten year old American kid knows 'Santa' is not real.
I'm pretty sure the suicide bombers are the virgins, and the sheep they have sex with arent
Aussies and Philadelphians are the only people here
lols, so basically he just wants to keep his penis after the rest of him has blown up.
so in his after life he will just be a penis.
fucking awesome.
can we just fast forward to the blowing himself up part? hopefully he will take as many of his own people with him as possible.....
Nothing is so common as the wish to be remarkable.... ~ Shakespeare
Keeping all that in mind, what does that make the average muslim jihadist? You said it!
Some mornings, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps. - Emo Phillips
Reminds me of what Lewis Black said about the amount of faith it takes to become a suicide bomber. Its a strong faith to believe you'll be met in heaven by 72 virgins when i haven't managed to meet one here on earth.

Bobby Thomson hits the "shot heard 'round the world," Woody Guthrie passes away, Germany comes together, and O.J. Simpson is found not guilty, all on this day.
1922: Rebecca L. Felton becomes the first female to hold the office of U.S. senator, after being appointed by Georgia Gov. Thomas W. Hardwick to fill a vacancy created by the death of Sen. Thomas E. Watson. Despite former Georgia Supreme Court Justice Walter F. George winning the seat in a special election, George allowed Felton to be sworn in on Nov. 21, 1922, and serve one day before he officially took office, making her the shortest serving senator in U.S. history. At 87 years old, 9 months and 22 days, she was also the oldest freshman senator to enter the Senate.

The Austrian company was issued a final greenhouse gas Prevention of Significant Deterioration construction permit from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in June, which was a major step in the construction process, Voestalpine Head of Communications Matt Pastl said.
"Getting a greenhouse permit in Texas is not easy," Pastl said. "It's a lengthy process."
Staff at Voestalpine have moved their corporate offices from Corpus Christi to Portland, and construction crews have cleared the area where the 110-foot facility will be constructed. They are currently in the process of drilling 66-foot holes in which piles that will support the facility's foundation will be installed. About 250 piles will be used to support the facility's core area.
Voestalpine's Portland facility will produce two million tons of hot briquetted iron per year.
"Half will be sent back to Austria, and the other half will be sold to steel producers in North and South America," Pastl said.
The plant will feature an enclosed storage facility for the iron ore pellets used to make the product, which will be shipped to the facility from Brazil, Canada and the Great Lakes region.
"By having the storage facility, we can make sure we have zero dust emissions from the pellets," Pastl said.
The enclosed storage facility is not required by the Environmental Protection Agency or the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, but Pastl said the feature represents Voestalpine's forward thinking ideas.
"The facility meets future air standards," he said. "It's not common practice in the steel industry, but one of the company's slogans is, 'one step ahead.'"
Two primary motivators for Voestalpine to construct the plant include the company's ability to purchase natural gas at cheaper rates than are available in Europe, and the site's proximity to the Gulf, Pastl said.
"We lack (affordable) natural gas in Austria," he said. "We get it from Russia, and those prices are about (twice) the price they are in America. We need access to deep sea, and we need the workforce and political and legal stabilization."
The plant will use bay water to cool its heating systems, rather than potable water, which will cut down on the amount of water Voestalpine will have to purchase from San Patricio County. The salt will not need to be separated from the bay water in order for it to be used on the systems.
Construction has begun on Voestalpine's dock, which will be 1,030 feet long. The company will utilize three ships.
"The dock will be finished by April of next year," Pastl said. "We've scheduled our first batch of briquettes to be produced Dec. 16, 2015, at 11:30 a.m."
Voestalpine utilizes drones to monitor progress at the site. There are currently around 200 construction workers there, and Pastl said there will be up to 1,400 there when the construction process hits its peak.

Massage Bar Tin
For when things get melty…
This little tin can come in handy when storing your massage bars. It's the same shape as most of our bars, and we can always squish in the ones that are of odd shapes once they're worn down a little. Anyways, best have at least one of these on hand to put your bar down in when your massage really starts to heat up. Wouldn't want to melt a bar in the sheets now would you?

MySightSee.comBy Rachel Cree Sherman | June 18,2013
PROVIDED Christopher J. (C.J.) Grimes offers an informational system called MySightSee.com, a digital concierge service for hotels.Christopher (C.J.) Grimes of Stowe has channeled his resources into a 21st-century informational system called MySightSee.com.
The iPad guide, a digital concierge for hotels, provides guests with information regarding area restaurants, retailers, events and day trips at the touch of a fingertip: instant information for people who make travel plans on the fly.
Its one of those concepts that I think is revolutionary and at the same time makes common sense, said Grimes, who manages Stowehof resort, which is owned by his family.
Tom Murphy, a friend in advertising and marketing, initially proposed a form of the concept to Grimes. The technology at the time didnt support the vision, but Grimes continued to work with it, implementing a practical slant.
They sought a universal application. Hotel lobbies are where the customers are; its the best bottleneck to drive business our way, he said.
Though Grimes bootstrapped the project, all eight people now involved have traded their expertise for sweat equity, he said. Its the link between ownership and commitment, the benchmark of success they get it.
A subscription costs $780 per year and includes content management, description, coupons, menus or brochures, a Google-mapping function, and other relevant additions. Information is changed remotely by the customer at any time. Categories are specific, with 36 subcategories.
At this point, MySightSee is installed in 30 hotels in Burlington and Manchester, VT, and Albany and Saratoga, NY.
The mailing address for MySightSee.com is P.O. Box 1455, Stowe, VT 05672. The telephone number is 1.888.320.0042. The Web site is www.mysightsee.com.MORE IN Champlain Business Briefs

We went to Lily Beach on our honeymoon. Amazing sunsets, friendly service by the staff, and a mind-boggling selection of food and drink from around the world at the Lily Maa restaurant. We stayed in an over-water bungalow and it was amazing. There isn't a single thing I would change about this place - it's perfect.
Here's why:
We're not the seller.
At KAYAK we don't set the prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We compile tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we can't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find, on occasion, that certain prices are no longer available.
If you have more questions or if you have a bad price to report to us,
please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

According to Deputy Lt. Ronnie Jones, sheriff's office dispatchers received a call at 10:38 p.m. on Feb. 17 from the Suicide Crisis Hotline explaining that an intoxicated man in the Tynan area was threatening to kill himself.
The man said if law enforcement arrived to stop him, he would "kill anyone who approached him." The man said he was well armed.
Deputy Sgt. Kevin Behr, the supervisor on duty at the time, called the BPD and San Patricio County Sheriff's Office and asked for SWAT team assistance.
Behr had officers and deputies staged in Tynan, a small, south Bee County community near the San Patricio County line.
The deputy then started collecting information at the scene.
Sheriff Carlos Carrizales Jr. and Chief Deputy Alden Southmayd joined Behr at the scene as the sergeant began communications with the man who had barricaded himself in his residence.
Behr tried to get the man to surrender but communications began to deteriorate. When the man refused to cooperate further, Carrizales and deputies at the scene made the decision to call in the SWAT teams to defuse the situation.
Some of the SWAT officers at the scene said the two teams worked flawlessly together as they entered the residence and managed to apprehend the man without incident.
The suicidal man was treated at the scene for superficial cuts to his arms inflicted with a knife and then taken to Christus Spohn Hospital Beeville for medical evaluation.
Carrizales formed the BCSO's SWAT team shortly after being elected to his first term in 2005. His reason for forming the team was to have a specialized unit ready for action in the event of an incident like this one.
The sheriff praised those who took part in the operation for their professionalism and thanked the other agencies that participated in the effort to rescue the man.
Carrizales also expressed appreciation to Precinct 2 Constable Clifford Bagwell for his assistance.
BPD and BCSO SWAT teams often train together.

Nothing to see here. Move along please. Especially if you are the gutter police.
Depends on the shape of the instrument

Hmmm. I keep finding a seemingly related word, "keraunograph", which is a figure or picture impressed by lightening, with this etymology: Gr. &?; thunderbolt + graph.

When the Romans got a hold of a Greek word with a K (kappa) in it they generally replaced it with a C (which was always hard in the Classical days). The C became softened before an e or an i to, variously, a ch, s or ts sound, depending on the language. Keraunograph is just the more Greek spelling of ceraunograph.

And, Sparteye, I've heard of these keraunographs, although I hadn't heard this word before. But I have heard of people standing before a glass window where a bolt of lightning has caused an image to be left there on the glass.
However, there are myths about impressions of trees left on people's skin. What is actually left on the skin of people hit by lightning is apparently a tracing of the moisture on their skin into a tree-like pattern.
I do wish someone could find the etymology of ceraunograph...

The word is from keraunos, Gr. for "thunderbolt" (+ graph, to draw, of course).

>Would you believe there are half a dozen sites combining pornography with that word?
had I been paying more attention "below the fold" when wwh was doing this, I would have pointed out that one of the tricks that webmasters use to generate search hits is to take a word list and make all the words therein into keywords, so that any search for any of those words will generate a hit for that site.
one result of this sort of thing is hits that look like this: ...cerambycidae ceramiaceous ceramography ceratitoidea ceratocystis ceratopsidae ceratopteris ceratosaurus ceratothecal ceraunograph ceraunomancy ceraunophone...
this one happens to come from a list of 12-letter words that turns up when you search for ceraunograph. but if you go to the end of the hits generated for this word and take the link, you may indeed be surprised, and you can search in vain for your word -- because it's embedded in the HTML.
nefarious, eh? but, you never see this with most words because the search algorithms end up sticking those sites at the end of the "hit list". : )
many an obscure word ends up obviousizing this tecnique; i.e., I've seen it a lot researching potential wwftds!

The 2016 season marks Roger McDowell's 11th with the Braves and his 11th as a Major League pitching coach.
McDowell led a 2015 staff that used a franchise-record 37 different pitchers during the season, including 13 who made their Major League debut (the most for any team since the 1915 Philadelphia A's, which had 21).
Under his leadership, the Braves saw their staff ERA drop in five-of-six seasons (from 2008 to 2014) and rank in the top five in Major League Baseball each year from 2009 to 2014. Over the four-seasons span of 2011-14, Atlanta's relievers posted a combined 2.88 ERA (best in the majors) and a .229 opponents batting average (third in the majors), while surrendering the fewest home runs among all bullpens in that stretch, with just 129.
McDowell guided the Braves through an injury-plagued stretch in 2014, but the club led the majors with 110 quality starts and finished fifth (third in the National League) with a 3.38 staff ERA. Starters Kris Medlen and Brandon Beachy were lost for the season when they suffered elbow injuries on backto-back days in spring training. Atlanta signed right-handers Ervin Santana and Aaron Harang at the end of spring training and the duo posted a combined 3.75 ERA with 26 wins in 64 total starts.
In 2013, the Braves led the majors with a 3.18 staff ERA, including an MLB-best 2.46 ERA by the bullpen, and ranked second by allowing just 2.54 walks per nine innings pitched. Atlanta ranked sixth overall (fourth in the N.L.) with a .244 opponents batting average.
In 2012, closer Craig Kimbrel posted a historic season, as he converted 42-of-45 save opportunities while posting an ERA of 1.01 with 116 strikeouts and only 27 hits allowed in 62.2 innings pitched. Kimbrel's 16.7 strikeouts per nine innings ranked as the highest in Major League history for any pitcher with at least 60 IP. He posted a .126 opponents batting average, the lowest since 1900, and retired 50% (116-of-231) of his hitters via strikeout, the best ratio in the live-ball era.
McDowell guided Atlanta's staff through an especially challenging season in 2011, as the Braves played an Atlanta-era record 26 extra-inning games. The staff logged 54 extra innings on the year, equal to an additional six games on the schedule. The Braves played 84 games which were decided by just one or two runs and through it all, they maintained the fourth-best team ERA in the majors at 3.48. Atlanta's bullpen led the majors with a 3.02 ERA. The team established a franchise mark in innings pitched (1,479.2) and its 1,332 strikeouts set a team record (fifth in Major League history). Kimbrel registered an amazing season and was honored with the N.L. Rookie of the Year Award. He garnered 127 strikeouts in 77 innings pitched (79 games) and posted a 2.10 ERA while shattering the MLB rookie saves record with 46. Reliever Eric O'Flaherty appeared in 78 games and posted an ERA of 0.98 - a Major League record for a pitcher with at least 75 appearances in a season. Jonny Venters led the majors with 85 appearances and had a 1.84 ERA.
In 2010, the Braves' overall staff ERA (3.56) ranked third in the majors. Braves pitchers allowed an MLB-low 126 home runs, including just 92 allowed by the starters (tied for fifth in the majors) and just 34 allowed by the relievers (third in the majors). Tim Hudson returned from "Tommy John" surgery and paced the staff with a 17-9 record and a 2.83 ERA to earn the Comeback Player of the Year Award from Major League Baseball. Another bright spot was Venters; the rookie left-hander pitched in 79 games and posted a 1.95 ERA with 93 strikeouts in 83.0 innings pitched.
The Braves' pitching staff ERA of 3.57 ranked third in the majors in 2009, while the starters' ERA of 3.52 led the majors. Atlanta allowed an MLB-low 119 home runs, including just 86 by the starters (third in the majors) and 33 by the relievers (best in the majors). Braves starters ranked second overall with 986 innings pitched (compared to just 886 in 2008 - 27th in the majors) and recorded 784 strikeouts, the fourth-best total in the majors. Jair Jurrjens (2.60) and Javier Vazquez (2.87) finished third and sixth, respectively, among N.L. ERA leaders. Rookie Tommy Hanson made his debut in June and posted an 11-4 record and a 2.89 ERA in 21 starts. He finished third in N.L. Rookie of the Year voting and Vazquez ranked second in the N.L. with 238 strikeouts.
In 2008 the Braves ranked second in the N.L. in earned run average (3.69) at the All-Star break, but injuries took their toll in the second half of the season and Atlanta dipped to 12th in the circuit with an overall ERA of 4.46. The 2007 Braves finished third in the league in ERA (4.11), while the bullpen ERA of 3.54 ranked second in the circuit.
McDowell spent the 2004-05 seasons as the pitching coach for the Dodgers' Triple-A franchise, the Las Vegas 51s, and was the pitching coach for the Class-A South Georgia Waves in 2002-03.
McDowell was one of the game's premier relievers during a 12-year career that spanned from 1985 to 1996 with the Mets, Phillies, Dodgers, Rangers and Orioles. He was a third-round draft pick of the Mets in 1982 and pitched in 723 games in his Major League career, posting a 70-70 record with 159 saves and a 3.30 ERA. In 1986, he was a member of the Mets' World Championship team and posted a 14-9 record with 22 saves in 75 games out of the bullpen.
McDowell graduated from Cincinnati's Colerain High School in 1979 and played for Bowling Green State University. He was inducted into BGSU's Athletic Hall of Fame in 1988. He has made television appearances on Seinfeld, America's Funniest People and MTV.
McDowell and his wife Gloria reside in Marietta, Ga., with their daughters Amanda and Rachel. Roger also has a son, Logan.

On the Road: Be mindful of wildlife while drivingJuly 28,2014When driving through a rural state like Vermont you can go from interstates to paved roads then to dirt roads in very short order. Please don't forget about wildlife.
Deer, moose and bear are larger animals that you might encounter on the roads. Fox, raccoon and any number of other smaller creatures cross our roads frequently, especially at dusk and at night. Then there are pet walkers and equestrians. Vermont country roads offer a relaxed and beautiful setting for dog walking and horseback riding. Always slow down when approaching horses. Don't rev the engine or sound the horn. Give equestrians and pet walkers plenty of room as you pass.
Interstate 89 in Milton continues to have bridge work that will reduce speeds. Paving between Richmond and Colchester goes on between 7 p.m. and 6 a.m. Sunday through Thursday. The speed limit is reduced to 55 mph. A paving project between Berlin and Brookfield will cause delays during afternoon commuting hours.
Interstate 91 projects include paving in the north and southbound lanes between St. Johnsbury and Lyndon (Exits 23 and 21). Travel is reduced to one lane in this work zone. Paving in north and southbound lanes from Fairlee to Newbury will reduce traffic to one lane with speed restrictions. In Windsor a bridge project directs northbound traffic into the southbound lane with a reduced speed limit. In Brattleboro a second bridge project between Exits 2 and 3 relocates northbound traffic to the southbound bridge. Drivers should expect delays during commuting hours and weekend getaway hours.

VT 12 between Elmore and Morristown will see a six-mile paving project that will create one-way traffic.
US 5 between Lyndon and St. Johnsbury is ready for the final paving run. Delays should be expected in this work zone.
VT 15 in Essex/Jericho will see more paving this week. Delays should be expected.
US 2 between Waterbury and Bolton will see alternating one-lane traffic. Drivers should expect delays. Paving is expected to begin this week.
US 2 and VT 100 roundabout is getting utility work done. Delays during afternoon commuting hours and occasional short-term lane closures should be expected.
RT 14 in Barre Town requires a speed restriction for a culvert replacement in Jockey Hollow.
RT 73 in Rochester has multiple bridge projects underway in July. Drivers should expect road closures and one-way traffic. Details on these and many other projects can be found at 511vt.com.
VT 107 between Stockbridge and Bethel requires a speed limit reduction (to 40 mph) for a roadway improvement project. Drivers should expect delays.
In Rutland, night work on Woodstock Avenue is set for completion. Night work continues between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. for the remaining work. Crews will continue excavation and installation of the new sewer system and are scheduled to continue working on the storm drains along South Main Street. Business Route 4 continues to get the replacement of drop inlets (storm drains) through the week. Night time hours are 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. Parking restrictions will be in effect throughout the Business Route 4 project area.
US 5 in Hartland will feature two separate bridge projects and will include the closure of Bridge #62A over the New England Central Railroad until Aug. 16. US 5 in Putney and VT 123 in Westminster will see traffic delays for paving.
VT 100 between Jamaica and Londonderry will experience delays because of a paving project.

This recipe is from Kevin Stout, who helped open our offices in Bangladesh, and now serves as the ministry's Church Partnership Development Manager. His wife is Bengali, and this is her family's recipe for murgir korma, or sweet chicken curry with yogurt.
I decided to make this because I had everything I needed for it in the pantry, and since it was from an American, I figured he wouldn't ask me to do anything too weird, like cook a goat head.
First off, I decided to get all my spices ready, mise-en-place style (thank you, Food Network!), so I'd be ready for them when I needed them and I wouldn't have to fiddle around with measuring spoons. I'm notorious for mismeasuring when under pressure.
Then I chopped up my onions — I decided to do a half-recipe, which still yielded at least four servings. I minced my garlic. That is, once I realized I couldn't find my garlic press, I pulled my handy minced garlic tub out.
I heated the oil and sautéed the onion and garlic, using my handy-dandy Spatula City spatula. (You UHF fans know what I'm talking about. Best wedding gift ever.)
While those were sweating, I got my coconut, raisins, water and yogurt ready.
The recipe called for only 1 teaspoon of raisins, but I love me some raisins, so I used 1/4 cup in a half-recipe. The more, the merrier!
I also used Greek yogurt, which was perhaps a mistake as I'll later explain.
Once the onions were tender, I added the spices and cooked for two minutes. Then I added the chicken and cooked it until it was cooked through.
Next, I plopped in the raisins, coconut, yogurt and water. It looked deliciously creamy and filled the house with a beautiful aroma. I put on the lid and simmered for about 35 minutes while I cooked a batch of rice.
All in all, this recipe took me only an hour to make, and 30 minutes of that was just waiting for it to simmer. Very easy — even while trying to keep a 4-month-old happy.
I was a little disappointed in the creaminess, however. By the time the dish had cooked for the 35 minutes, the yogurt seemed to have disappeared. Perhaps this is because I used Greek yogurt, which has less water. So in the future, I would either use more yogurt or use a non-Greek, higher-fat yogurt.
The spices were tasty, and I think this would be a fun recipe to make for a family — different, but not so different that kids couldn't enjoy it. Bon appétit!
