Receding Reality (II)
What was I thinking, coming down here on my own, after what happened this morning? I must be insane! I'm getting the Hell out of here.
Izzy turned to start towards the locker room door, and her heart leapt into her throat as she heard voices. She quickly realized that there it was still lunch time, and it was only two girls that had come down to get things from their lockers.
Becky and Sarah, two girls that Izzy knew were in her P.E. class, but who never spoke to her, were chatting away at their lockers at the other side of the room.
Izzy backed into the corner, behind her locker. It was at the end of the row, and those girls would never see her there. Becky used to be Lauren's best friend until Secondary School. Izzy wasn't sure if they even talked at all anymore.
"Be careful down here, Sarah," Becky was saying with a giggle. "There are ghosts around, you know."
Sarah scoffed. "It's plumbing noises, Becks. The banging, and thefootsteps, as they're called. It's all to do with messed-up pipes."
"Yeah, maybe you're right."
Sarah giggled. "Did you see Isabelle's face when she was telling Halligan the spirits were speaking to her?"
Izzy's heart dropped to her knees. She sank to the floor and pulled her knees to her chin.
"Ugh. I know," said Becky.
"Lauren can't be dragged away from that kid these days. It's a bit lesbian-looking if you ask me. What ever happened between you two anyway?"
"Me and Lauren?" Becky's voice dripped with disgust.
"Yeah! You two were like best friends, weren't you?"
"You're going into ancient history there, Sarah."
Izzy had a strange feeling in the pit of her stomach. She wished she'd eaten now. But she didn't want to get up now. Not until Sarah and Becky were gone.
She winced and looked to the ceiling as their was a knocking. Sarah and Becky's conversation was cut short.
"Did you hear that?"
Izzy wanted to get up and run out of there, leaving nothing but a trail of cartoon dust. But she didn't want to look like a wimp and a psycho in front of Sarah and Becky.
"I'm telling you, Becks. It's plumbing."
Izzy covered her head with her arms as footsteps started to creep over her head.Oh God.They came to a creaking halt just above her head.
Running now, they headed towards Sarah and Becky's side of the room.
"Sarah, why the Hell is the plumbingrunning towards us?" shrieked Becky.
The pair of them screamed. Izzy pulled her arms tighter around her head, trying to block out the sounds.
It was calling her Izzy now? How did it know..? How much more did this thing know about her?
"Stop!" she cried. "Go away!"
"Izzy? Izzy, it's me!"
Izzy dropped her arms. Lauren was stooped in front of her, eyes wide in horror. Izzy stared back at her. The locker room was quiet now. No screams, no footsteps, no whispering voices.
"What happened to Sarah? And Becky?" she asked, panicking.
"They ran out screaming their heads off," said Lauren, with what may have been a very small grin. "Not near as loudly as you were screaming in here though! Are you okay?" she asked, leaning in to give her a hug.
Izzy nodded, but as soon as she was in Lauren's arms, she started to shake all over.
"It was saying my name, Lauren. I swear."
Lauren's lack of response was more than enough to confirm Izzy's suspicions. She was hearing it in her head. She was losing it.

15. Secrets Leaked [3/3]
When it came to lunch time, Tommy pulled me away from the class and pulled me to the beach nearby.
"Tommy, what are you doing? I'm really hungry let's go back."
Tommy ignored me and pulled me to the beach.
"We have 1 hour for eating lunch!" Tommy snapped at me and pushed me against a tree.
"Fine, what is it?" I asked him.
"I'm still not okay with this," Tommy said.
I leaned against the tree and asked him, "Okay with what?"
"You and Seth. I really don't understand why you like him. Don't you wonder sometimes why he keeps changing?"
Tommy suddenly put his hand on either side of me and pressed his lips to mine. What the hell was he doing?! I put my hand on his shoulder and tried pushing him away but he stayed firm. He didn't stop and when he did I yelled at him.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!"
Tommy ignored me and pulled me to him to kiss me again.
Except this time I let him, I gave up trying to stop him. Seeing this he went to the extremes. So I had to do something. I pulled my hand back and punched him. Then a sickening crack was heard.
"OWW!!!" I screamed, holding my hand. "OWW! OW!!!"
"What?" Tommy asked innocent.
"You turned into Steel-man, dumb ass! You just broke my hand!"
"I'm sorry!" He said, coming toward me in concern.
"Don't you dare touch me Tommy!"
I stormed toward my class, fuming with anger.
One look at me and Sakura started laughing, knowing what had happened.
"Hey, what happened?" Joe asked me.
"Tommy's such an idiot!" I marched into the museum to get to the office. The nurse healed it using her power and then put a cast around it.
"There will be a bit of pain, cause my power will just be a pain killer for about 5 hours. After that the pain will hit you. Don't let this cast come off. Just keep it on."
I nodded then stormed out the nurses' office, still angry at Tommy. When I came out, the whole class was grinning at me. Sakura must've told all of them.
"Yep, I did," she yelled at me.
I glared at her then started eating lunch, trying not to move my hand that much.
"Hey, I really am sorry," Tommy's voice whispered into my ear as he sat down next to me.
"I hope you are sorry for kissing me!" I snarled at him.
"No, I meant for breaking your hand," Tommy said back.
"You boys will be sorry for everything but kissing a girl," I muttered under my breath.
Tommy laughed.
"Turning into my steel form was just a reflex, I didn't even know I had used my power until you told me."
I ignored him.
He looked at me and said, "Look, I really am sorry."
This time I looked at him, into his eyes, and then I was about to forgive him and then I figured out I was falling for his tricks.
"Fine then, I'm going to go get in the bus. Finish eating lunch and I'll see you there."
That was the last thing I heard Tommy say to me that day cause I didn't talk to him at all in the bus.

Electrik RedView in iTunes
To preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
Upfront, pop-oriented R&B group Electrik Red are based in Los Angeles but involve four vocalists of varying backgrounds: Kyndra "Binkie" Reevey, from Harlem; Lesley Lewis, of West Indian descent, from Brooklyn; British-Canadian and Jamaican Naomi Allen, from Toronto; and fellow Torontonian Sarah Rosete, whose roots are Swedish, Filipino, and Russian. Prior to their jump-start as recording artists (they formed the group in 2005), the women worked together as dancers -- three of them toured with Usher, and all four were in the video for Ciara's "Like a Boy." Signed to Def Jam, they debuted in late 2008 with the raunchy "Drink in My Cup," a single produced by the-Dream. How to Be a Lady, Vol. 1, written and produced almost entirely by Dream and partner Tricky Stewart, recorded during a brisk two-week period, was released in May 2009. ~ Andy Kellman

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Married in the last year to my spouse, a US Citizen. Continue to be a non-resident, working in the US under a valid H1B visa even prior to marriage. Last month, recently filed for permanent residency through my spouse - US Citizen sponsorship - as opposed to US Employer sponsorship. Application filed: I485, I765, I131, I130.
For the purposes of traveling abroad, the H1B is exempt from the advance parole, meaning the H1B visa holder may return to the US presenting a valid H1B, and may do so while simultaneously maintaining a adjustment of status application for PR. Yes?
With a pending I-485 application for PR while currently holding an active H1B, what recommendation is there for travel outside of the US? Any risk or material impact to the pending petition? Any advice?
For legal advice specific to your case, I urge u to contact a competent immigration attorney. Most of us provide free initial consultations via Skype. Here is the brief overview of the H1B and AOS situation in general:
H is a dual intent status. AOS applicant who is in valid H-1B status, and his dependents, can travel abroad and reenter the United States in H status while an I-485 is pending, without having to obtain advance parole. The H1B must still be eligible for H status and returning to the previously approved employer. All travelers must have a valid H1B/H4 entry visa. H1B/H4 status must be maintained while awaiting AOS.
However, if the H1B holder has used the AOS based EAD card to leave his previous H1B employer and is working for another employer, he may NOT re-enter in H1B status and return to work for the first employer using the H1B exception. Such individual and his dependents must obtain Advance Parole and will not be considered to have maintained H status.
The answers provided here are not intended to form an attorney client relationship and no such relationship is formed here. The answer is not intended to be legal advice regarding the asking person's specific situation. I urge the individual to contact a competent immigration attorney to seek specific legal advice regarding their situation.Ask a similar question
Confirmed: a valid H1B holder, in the early stages of AOS, awaiting to receive appointment for biometrics. For this specific case, this holds true: AOS applicant who is in valid H-1B status, and his dependents, can travel abroad and reenter the United States in H status while an I-485 is pending, without having to obtain advance parole.
You would be best advised to consult an experienced immigration attorney as more information is needed to provide proper guidance. There are always risk when teaveling ourside the United States. An attorney would need to know whether you still work for your employer, whether the visa is valid, what country you are from, etc. to begin to provide sound advice.

... have been in there are only two we would not use again, and this is one. It is certainly clean and cute, but very small.
Every place we have been in Italy has had a bidet, but this apartment is so small that they placed it in the shower! We could note we have been familiar with bidets for many years. When we visited Rome in the 70's there was one. We will not tell you what use we "tried" to make of it.
Rome, the Eternal City
... the outskirts.
Could I continue? Yes. But even though I love my bike, I'm glad to be jumping off and am looking forward to being a tourist, wandering around Rome with David.
What's next? The days of being able to do these epic trips are waning as the years roll by but I am seriously tempted by the idea of cycling next year from Paris to Moscow. Anyone interested? Chrissie x
Wine anyone?
... We didn't know what it was but it reminded me of a crab cake. We all agreed that the mushroom thing might have been the best part.No of us could get enough! Plus we did manage to find some wine to buy!
Sunday it was time to drive back to Geneve. It was a great time but all good dreams come to an end. I was looking forward to the drive back in the daylight. The drive took us through the Mont Blanc tunnel which is 11.6 Km long. The drive is very ...
The Honeymoon Begins with a Roman Retreat
... in Italy when I learned this interesting fact: the word "honeymoon" derives from the ancient Roman tradition of sweetening the couple's wine with honey for the first month (or moon cycle) of marriage. Love it!
And so we began in Italy. Tivoli, Italy to be precise. Tivoli is just 30 km or so outside Rome. Since we were arriving in Italy just days before Easter, we realized it was not the best time to be in Rome. ...

Their bridges are also 'big' by our standards. When you remember that Italy is a ...

According to those that the financial paper called "people familiar with the situation", Nokia had planned on releasing the X7 on AT&T prior to the MWC in Barcelona next month. Nokia has been unable to gain traction in the U.S. with a smartphone model subsidized by one of the major carriers, so the Nokia X7 launch was seen as an important launch for the Finnish based manufacturer.
But Nokia felt that AT&T would not provide enough marketing support for the device and also worried that the mobile operator would not provide enough of a subsidy to make the phone competitively priced. Most top-line handsets have been priced at $199.99 with a 2 year contract.
While Nokia still plans on offering the X7 in other markets, the manufacturer has had trouble in the smartphone segment of the U.S. market and despite the fact that the company is the number one producer of handsets world-wide in terms of units sold, the reliance on what is seen as a dated OS platform has helped prevent Nokia from challenging Apple, RIM and Android flavored models in the States. Despite improvements overall, the Symbian ^3 OS which powers the X7, is said to be more cumbersome and not as quick and intuitive as other operating systems.

Pink Dot Dash
The official story of the Legendary Pink Dots' name mentions a keyboard player who needed nail polish to remember the notes. Yet leader Edward Ka-Spel has picked up the kaleidoscope dropped by Syd Barrett and brought it blazing into the 21st Century with a distinctly Pink Floydian hue. Not the "tear down the wall!" stuff but the magical world of tiny gnomes, astronomy domines, borrowed bicycles, and playful Emilies.
"We're certainly psychedelic, but carrying on the torch from the '60s wasn't ever our intention," Ka-Spel says in a voice that turns every R into a tongue-rolled W. "We've always wanted to be rather timeless, actually. It's not about nostalgia at all. We want to make the most psychedelic music that's ever been recorded."
The band, which formed in London in 1980 but has long used the Netherlands as its base of operations, has spent 24 years making the most psychedelic music in quantitative terms: It has released more than 60 (!) albums in that period, including compilations. Then there are another 15 discs that Ka-Spel has created on his own as well as the half-dozen he's made with his side project, Tear Garden. Psychedelic maybe, prolific indisputably. Not even the enigmatic Ka-Spel has enough fingers and toes to keep track of all those children.
Legendary Pink Dots
Culture Room, 3045 N. Federal Hwy., Fort Lauderdale.
9 p.m. Tuesday, June 8, Tickets cost $10. Call 954-564-1074.
With such a conveyor-belt output, it's hard for the Pink Dots to remember more than the last few albums. The band lives in the present, and many older songs "have run their course" and are now retired, Ka-Spel explains. The newest album is Whispering Wall, a trippy little warning light atop the reactor core of the Apocalypse.

Since the band's start, singer/keyboardist Ka-Spel (a.k.a. D'Archangel, a.k.a. the Prophet Qa'Sepel) and keyboardist Phil Knight (a.k.a. the Silver Man) have constituted its abstract-electronic foundation, and in 1988, saxophonist/extrovert Niels van Hoorn offset their inherent weirdness with love-loaded melodies and outlandish stage presence. Festooned with leopard-print suits and matching hats and strolling into the crowd with wireless instruments, van Hoorn is comic relief to Ka-Spel's intractable oddness.
The band's initial cassette-only output was spotty, and early albums like Curse (1983) are marred by unfortunate new wave slap-bass buffoonery. Watersheds like Any Day Now (1987) and The Golden Age (1988) brought the band's involuted mythologies and surreal carnival atmospheres into focus. Still, so obscure was the band that it was denied a visa to tour the U.S. in 1990. "Ah, yes," Ka-Spel remembers. "It was a case of someone who hadn't heard of us deciding we had no artistic merit."
America finally opened its doors the next year, and the Legendary Pink Dots have since made annual pilgrimages to increasingly large crowds. The records have kept coming too, and career highlights like 1997's Hallway of the Gods and 1998's Nemesis Online presented the group's electronically bent psychedelia in its multitracked glory. Better yet, the band had perfected twistedly gorgeous pop songs. Acoustic madrigals like "Fate's Faithful Punchline" and "Lucifer's Landed" are just beneath the threshold of universal accessibility.
Like other Pink Dots albums, Whispering Wall includes a psych-popadelic nugget ("For Sale"), a dissonant rocker ("Soft Toy"), and a moody, ten-minute-plus opus ("Sunken Pleasure/Rising Pleasure/No Walls, No Strings"). "There are always little lines that run from one record to the next," Ka-Spel says cryptically.
The records Ka-Spel releases on his own (the most recent, Pieces of 8, should in no way be mistaken for the Styx album of the same name) are even more out-there than the Pink Dots. The third outlet for his boundless creativity, the Tear Garden, is a more industrial affair -- not surprising, given that it's a collaboration with members of Canada's brutal Skinny Puppy. After a 35-date tour with Legendary Pink Dots, Ka-Spel will record a new Tear Garden album in Los Angeles and then tour again with that project. All this comes after a pair of albums released in 2002 (All the King's Horses and All the King's Men) which was followed by a world tour in 2003 and then immediately by the recording of Whispering Wall. "We've been going so hard," Ka-Spel says. "We're coming off a real explosion of activity."
And the reclusive front man, who turns 50 this year, has no plans to shut off the tap. In fact, almost two years ago, the notorious chain smoker stubbed out his last cancer stick. Feel better, Ed? "To be honest, not especially," he deadpans. "I know you're supposed to have twice the energy, but I can't say I really felt that."
Still, he promises, "There're plenty of years left in the Pink Dots. The fact that we love it so much helps." For almost a quarter century, the band has operated under the motto "Sing While You May," which may explain its voluminous output. Comments Ka-Spel: "Time is accelerating. Imagine the world as a drowning man seeing his entire life flash before his eyes. I'm encouraging people to enjoy it while it's there."

Ippity Uppity
Ippitty uppity way down by the pond,
A little wee faerie is waving her wand.
Her gestures are big and they're grand,
But she's just getting a wart off her hand!
Ippitty uppity home from the zoo,
I met a man who played the kazoo.
He smiled and wiggled his nose,
Then he danced around on his toes!
Ippitty uppity and lickity split,
My little brother is throwing a fit.
He jumps up and down in the air,
So I grab the little brat by the hair!

Is Tom Brady still Mr. Clutch? Stats show a different story
|02.02.12 at 10:09 pm ET
In sports, there are revered and fundamental truths, statements and realities that are unquestioned and rarely debated.
Principally among them, especially in New England, is this: Tom Brady will always find a way to perform and help put his team in a position to win with the game on the line. In short, Brady is a clutch player and it's that simple.
It is a reputation that Brady has deservedly built over the course of his distinguished career, with late-game heroics in big-game, high-pressure situations cementing his legacy as a winner.
But statistics from the 2011 season paint an entirely different picture of the revered quarterback. If anything, they show a decline in Brady's late-game statistical performance from years when the Patriots captured the Super Bowl.
In the 2011 season in games decided by 0-7 points, Brady has completed 63.7 percent of his passes for 14 touchdowns and nine interceptions, all of which add up to a 90.8 passer rating, a mark that places him below Aaron Rodgers (119.2), Tony Romo (98.1), Matthew Stafford (98.0), Drew Brees (97.5) and Eli Manning (92.9).
Brady's passer rating in games decided by 0-7 points is also down from three of the four years in which the Patriots advanced to the Super Bowl.
The problem hasn't even just been when Brady's production has dipped. It's also been when it's spiked, as he has performed significantly better in games which the Patriots have won by 15 or more.
Compared to his 90.8 rating in closely-contested games, Brady has a passer rating of 119.0 in games that the Patriots won by more than two touchdowns.
While it's easy to assume that a quarterback performs better when his team is firmly in control of the game, Brady has a touchdown-to-interception ratio of 1.6-to-1 in those 0-7 point games. As for that number in games decided by 15 or more? 13-1.
That contrast in performance is in fact a contrast to the rest of Brady's career, at least in the Patriots' most successful seasons.
In the 2004 season, the last time the Patriots won a Super Bowl, Brady had a 99.6 rating in games decided by a possession and a 83.9 rating in games when his team won by more than two touchdowns. The year prior to that, Brady had a 91.3 rating in those close games and an 83.9 rating in comfortable wins.
Essentially, the man known almost universally for his heroics in close games has been a far better quarterback when the game is beyond reach for the opposing team this season.
This isn't a problem limited to this campaign. It began to show in the 2007 season. In the Patriots' 19 games that season, in which they went 18-1, Brady had a 131.5 rating in his team's numerous blowouts that season, but just a 94.7 rating in close games. Patriots fans need not be reminded of his subpar performance in the Super Bowl that year.
Of course, his isn't to say that Brady hasn't had his moments late in games this season. He led a game-winning drive to beat the Cowboys on Oct. 16. He responded from a costly interception to take the Patriots on a game-tying drive against the Bills in a Week 3 loss. And against the Giants, he engineered a 64-yard drive that gave the Patriots a 20-17 lead with 1:36 left in the game.
But too often this season, against some of the NFL's best teams, Brady hasn't answered the call.
In the Patriots' 18 games this season against 14 different opponents, only three came against teams with winning records (the Steelers, Giants and Ravens). In those games, Brady had an even touchdown-to-interception ratio and a 77.7 passer rating. Against teams with losing records, those numbers ballooned to a 3.7-to-1 ratio and a 111.5 rating.
There is a clear drop-off in Brady's productivity and effectiveness when facing off against the NFL's best competition, a fact that isn't in line with much of Brady's career.
It's even something that he recognized to a point after the win over the Ravens in the AFC championship.
"Well, I sucked pretty bad today, but our defense saved us," Brady said after throwing for 239 yards, two interceptions and no touchdown passes. "I'm going to try to go out and do a better job in a couple of weeks, but I'm proud of this team, my teammates."
While it's hard to excuse Brady for his statistical shortcomings against those teams the question has to be asked — is this a problem that is limited to him? Largely, among other top quarterbacks, yes it is.
Brady's 77.7 rating against winning teams puts him well behind the likes of Rodgers (111.2), Brees (111.2), Manning (96.6) and Ben Roethlisberger (91.1), as well as the likes of Rex Grossman (92.0) and Tavaris Jackson (79.3) in similar situations.
Brady's struggles were certainly felt by the Patriots, as the team went 1-2 in those games, and were a Lee Evans dropped pass away from being 0-3.
In the playoffs, the biggest games of the season, Brady has also had his share of shortcomings beginning with the 2008 AFC championship against the Chargers.
In New England's last six playoff games, Brady has thrown 13 touchdowns with 10 interceptions and posted just an 82.1 passer rating. Not so coincidentally, the Patriots went just 3-3 in those games, a far cry from his 14-2 record in his first 16 playoff appearances.
Brady's recent playoff track record has caused some to question whether he still has the same big-game ability he used to routinely exhibit.
"Let's be real: It's fair to wonder about Brady's, well, clutch-ness," wrote ESPN New York columnist Rich Cimini this week in an article titled "Tom Brady not as great as advertised." "He's experienced some serious hiccups in recent postseasons, committing huge turnovers in critical moments."
Not much can diminish what Brady has accomplished in the biggest of moments in the past.
He's still got a better playoff win percentage than Joe Montana, Terry Bradshaw, John Elway and Troy Aikman. And he's still the man that stepped up and led the Patriots on game-winning drives in two Super Bowls.
Statistically speaking, it just hasn't shown of late.

Vinnie Colletta Redux
When anyone says Vinnie Colletta was worst artist to ever ply his wares in an American comic book I always point them towards a Dell book titled 'Dracula: The Super Non-Vampire' produced in the '60s. The art there would make you retch, I kid you not! One day I'll scan some of it just so you can see how bad it was. And trust me on this, in this case the cover was the best thing about the book. Come to think of it a lot of the Dell 'superhero/horror' stuff wasn't much more than total wastes of paper.
Now, over The Former DC Staffer!
In the late 70s a friend managed to get us an interview at DC Comics. We were young and had our sample pages but I knew we were a long way from being accepted as artists. Still to go to the offices in NYC was cause for excitement. We would be meeting with Vinnie Colletta.
Colletta has been ridiculed for many years in and out of the comics industry for his rushed inks and shortcuts. Since the birth of the Internet, as a mass consumer information tool, fanboys with no qualifications for professional review have used Colletta as a means to generate controversy with harsh commentary all revolving around the word hack. These fanboys all seem to have forgotten Colletta's run on Thor, Sub-Mariner and the New Gods, to name a few.
In the DC offices that day we waited until we were ushered into Colletta's office. There were pages everywhere on the two art tables in the small space. Colletta welcomed us and after a little chat we showed him our work. You immediately knew that Colletta was an informed artist and great instructor. He was having the time of his life and he wanted to share that feeling with you. He let us know right away that we weren't ready but saw no reason why we couldn't be as good as Jim Starlin. As if on cue Starlin walked into the office. I was stunned. I remember him wearing a black turtleneck sweater and silver medallion looking very cool and too-hip-for-the-room. Starlin is one of my idols and meeting him was an unexpected bonus. Colletta ended the talk by asking us if we had any original comic art to review and learn from. We both said no and out of his portfolio Colletta signs and gives us two pages from Wonder Woman.
I studied that page and did learn from it.
Many years later I was in the Marvel offices and there was Colletta. He looked older but he was happily talking about comics and art with the same enthusiasm I remembered. He was clearly still having the time of his life. It was the last time I saw him. When he passed I was saddened and surprised that not more was said about the positive contributions he made to the art form.
Vinnie Colletta deserves better than what he's received of late. It may not have always been good but he was there for us month after month and when he was good we enjoyed it and looked forward to more.
And he made sure we got it.

I met Vince Colletta as an intern for Marvel in 1983 and he was working at the drawing table. I was so impressed! He was a working professional and I was a skinny high school kid. As I learned more as an artist, I was disappointed at how much he left out for the sake of speed.
He does deserve more credit for the work he did. He was making a living like all of us. But his talent hit a ceiling. I'm not the only one who would say that.

Yeah, but a least you said it with some class.
- Wednesday, July 11, 2007 10:49:00 am
My man, Vinnie Colletta, beautiful women, intricate well thought-out inks, always on time-every time. Rest in Peace, Vince.

On paper it wasn't a bad class, actually ranked No. 24 nationally by Scout.com; certainly respectable but not by Tennessee or SEC standards. Already bristling from criticism over his first losing campaign as head coach, Fulmer defended his class, as any coach should, but he also took issue with the recruiting sites and analysts that weren't impressed with UT's Class of 2006. Seemingly oblivious to the fact Scout.com had ranked the Vols Class of 2005 No. 1 ahead USC.
Had that 2006 class lived up to its No. 24 ranking, 2008 may have turned out differently. The fact is that it didn't. Nowhere near it. Some from that class never made it to campus while others fell short of their potential. Others were slow to develop and might yet become contributors. Only one turned out to be a starter late in his freshman season. That happened to be Jacques McClendon, who was also the highest rated of UT's 2006 prospects, and the only one chosen to play in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl.
Consider that class didn't produce any playmakers of note and only a pair of offensive starters — McClendon and Luke Stocker. It contained no defensive starters, although Daniel Lincoln is the Vols place kicker and punter Chad Cunningham, who played in place of the suspended Britton Colquitt through the first five games. Brent Vinson was signed in that class but required a year at Hargrave Military to gain admission and subsequently re-signed in 2007.
Nick Stephens started six games in 2008 before relinquishing the job back to Jonathan Crompton. Walter Fisher saw significant service in his three seasons on The Hill but primarily as a back-up.
Among those that signed but never played for the Vols were: Defensive lineman Blake Garrettson, tight end Lee Smith, JUCO safety Justin Garrett, and running back/linebacker Dustin Lindsey. Defensive back Stephaun Raines, of Dalton, Ga., attended junior college for two years before re-signing with Tennessee in the Class of 2008. Linebacker Dorian Davis played on special teams before leaving school after the 2007 season.
Offensive lineman Ramone Johnson was in the playing rotation for the Vols last season. Quinton Hancock was on the fringe of the wide receiver rotation in 2007, but he didn't crack the top five in 2008. The rest of the class is still languishing on the depth charts or hiding underneath it. Players such as linemen Victor Thomas, Chase Nelson, Jared Shaw, Cody Pope and Darrius Myers have failed to earn any significant playing time — if any PT period.
The most glaring lack of talent in this class is where UT needed it most in 2008 — wide receivers and playmakers. Offensive players of that ilk from the Class of 2006 contributed 163 total yards and no TDs in 2007 and 139 yards and no TDs in 2008. Stephens threw for 840 yards, four touchdowns and three INTs, two of which were returned for touchdowns. He only completed 63 of 130 attempts for 48.5 percent. He lost 50 yards on 23 rushing attempts. He showed a big arm but also signs of panic, and some of his leadership tactics didn't go over well with his teammates.
LIkewise the Class of 2008, which was ranked No. 35, failed to infuse any meaningful energy or ability in a struggling offense. Tauren Poole saw very limited service as a fourth team tailback. So the Classes of 2006 and 2008 gave UT two starters among 24 and virtually zero offense.
One bad signing class is enough to throw any program into a catch-up mode, while two in three years will almost certainly result in a winter of discontent and early retirement.

text: Magnetic Resonance of Myelin, Myelination and Myelin Disorders (2nd edition) By Marjo S. van der Knaap 1995 | 560 Pages | ISBN: 3540592776 | PDF | 29 MB This is the second, completely rewritten edition of the widely acclaimed book on MR of myelin, myelination and myelin disorders (1989). In the last five years many new data became available with regard to genetics, molecular biology, the role of cellular substructures on one side and on the other side regarding the growing experience with MR patterns of less common myelin disorders. Not only, therefore, the text has been updated, but many new chapters have been added on disorders of which previously the white matter involvement was less clear. The acquired myelin disorders were reorganized and their backgrounds were more extensively elucidated, to place the MR examinations in the clinical context where they belong.

In a "Notebook" entry at her blog on the CBS News Web site Wednesday, "Evening News" anchor Katie Couric boasted of the media's ability to predict a recession.
In spite of the fact that no one knows for sure if the U.S. economy is in a recession, Couric seemed sure the nation is facing economic hard times, and she's proud to say the media called it.
"The economy's going through one of its roughest patches in years," Couric said. "Stocks are plummeting, the Fed is slashing interest rates and the president is looking for ways to fight off a recession. But are we already in a recession?"
The short answer: yes, according to Couric. But according to experts, the answer is no. Two recent polls of economists have predicted slow growth in 2008 and put the chances of a recession at 40- to-42 percent.
Couric cited the "R-word index," a running count of how many times the media mention recession, as evidence of its inevitability. It has spiked lately, although it remains well below levels seen ahead of previous recessions.
When I was a kid, my parents watched the Jeopardy quiz show every night. A participatory youth, I would guess at every turn. My answer was always, "What is robot?" One time I was right.
The media have been saying "recession" for a long time. In fact throughout 2006, the media kept suggesting recession was on the horizon, but 2007 didn't see one. In a cyclical economy recession is a given every now and then, and media predictions will occasionally be right. But that doesn't make those media claims reliable barometers of state of the economy.
Couric also failed to mention the media's role in creating a recession. How does she expect the American public to react when all the media talks about is recession? Practically every night, viewers are bombarded with negative coverage of the economy. Does she expect that will encourage people to spend money?
No, the media's constant doom-and-gloom reporting scares people. If consumers fear an oncoming recession, they'll want to save their money - Couric even suggests in her notebook video that viewers "build a cash cushion and prepare to sit tight."

Dermatitis herpetiformis, an itchy, stinging, blistering skin rash, occurs when your skin reacts to gluten antibodies circulating in your system. Some people call dermatitis herpetiformis a "gluten rash" or a "celiac disease rash" because it occurs in conjunction with celiac disease.

As you probably know, gluten is a protein that occurs in the grains wheat, barley and rye. In celiac disease, your body responds to ingestion of this protein by mistakenly attacking your small intestine. If you have dermatitis herpetiformis, your immune system attacks your skin as a result of gluten ingestion.

Although dermatitis herpetiformis can form anywhere on your body, the most frequent locations include the elbows, knees, buttocks, lower back and the back of the neck. In most cases (but not all), it's one of the itchiest skin conditions you can experience.

Symptoms

Dermatitis herpetiformis sufferers usually experience their rashes in the same location every time. The rash might be continuous, or it might come and go depending on your exposure to gluten (and possibly to other factors that haven't been isolated yet).

Before the actual dermatitis herpetiformis rash breaks out, your skin may itch in that location, or it might feel as if it's burning. The rash itself usually includes reddened skin plus multiple small, pimple-like bumps, which contain a clear liquid.

The dermatitis herpetiformis bumps usually take several days to heal (during which time new bumps usually appear nearby), and once healed, those bumps will leave behind small purple marks that last for weeks or months. People with long-standing dermatitis herpetiformis usually have continuously reddened, purple-dotted skin where their rash occurs.

Who Does Dermatitis Herpetiformis Affect?

Unlike celiac disease, which is diagnosed more often in women, dermatitis herpetiformis is more common in men. In fact, some studies show a male-to-female ratio of up to 2-to-1 in dermatitis herpetiformis patients.

Dermatitis herpetiformis had been thought to be rare in children younger than age 10, but newer research shows that it can occur in younger children. The rash often first surfaces in your teens, 20s or 30s, and it sometimes goes into remission even if you're eating a gluten-filled diet.

About 15% to 25% of celiac disease patients also have dermatitis herpetiformis. Although many dermatitis herpetiformis patients don't have overt intestinal symptoms, 90% will have intestinal damage from gluten consumption.

Diagnosis

Dermatitis herpetiformis is diagnosed through a skin biopsy procedure that looks for specific deposits of antibodies beneath the skin. A dermatologist usually performs the in-office procedure, which involves taking a small sample of skin.

Dermatitis Herpetiformis Diagnosed with Skin Biopsy

Do These Dermatitis Herpetiformis Photos Look Like Your Rash?

Experts advise finding a dermatologist who's knowledgeable about dermatitis herpetiformis to perform the biopsy (not all dermatologists are familiar with the condition). It's important to sample the skin next to an active lesion, or you risk missing the telltale antibodies.

Health Risks

There's been comparably little research done on the health risks associated with dermatitis herpetiformis, but one study does show a risk of thinning bones that's comparable with the risk faced by those with celiac disease.

Dermatitis Herpetiformis Includes Risk for Bone Loss

Another study found an increased risk for thyroid disease in those with dermatitis herpetiformis. This shouldn't be surprising, since celiac disease and thyroid disease often are found together.

Dermatitis Herpetiformis and Celiac Disease

In most cases, being diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis means you also have celiac disease, even if you don't have classic or overt intestinal celiac disease symptoms.

If I Have Dermatitis Herpetiformis, Do I Also Have Celiac Disease?

Can My Dermatitis Herpetiformis Go Into Remission?

Some physicians aren't up on the latest research stating that dermatitis herpetiformis is the skin manifestation of celiac disease (and therefore requires a gluten-free diet). If yours isn't, you might want to consider getting a second opinion.

Treatment

Although a medication called dapsone can offer some initial relief from the itching associated with dermatitis herpetiformis, it carries long-term side effects. Therefore, the only long-term treatment to keep your dermatitis herpetiformis at bay is the gluten-free diet.

Dapsone Offers Short-Term Relief for Dermatitis Herpetiformis Sufferers

Managing Your Dermatitis Herpetiformis with the Gluten-Free Diet

Controlling your dermatitis herpetiformis through diet can be difficult (you actually have to be significantly stricter to avoid skin symptoms than you do to avoid digestive symptoms from gluten). However, those who have done it say it's worth it to eliminate the constant itching.

If you can get your rash under control and into remission, any future outbreaks should be less severe (and eventually, not even particularly noticeable).

Other Skin Conditions

Dermatitis herpetiformis is common among celiacs, but it's far from the only skin condition associated with celiac disease and antibodies to gluten. Eczema, psoriasis, alopecia areata, hives and even acne all have been linked with celiac disease.

Skin-Based Manifestations of Celiac Disease Can Take Many Forms

A/N: Okay, I decided to start a new story
A/N: Okay, I decided to start a new story. I got the inspiration from a couple of really good fics I read, so I hope you like it. Here it is!
By: Goth-VampireNinja
Chapter One: History
The gates to Konoha: so familiar. As the raven-haired ninja walked through them, memories rushed back and attacked his head. His head pounded and he reached up to rub his temples.
"Welcome back!" voices shouted. Startled, he tensed and stood rock-still. Realizing that there was no harm intended, he smiled ruefully and waved. He received many pats on the back and some hugs. He kept expecting to get tackled and kissed by a pink-haired girl, but that never happened. He couldn't help but look around looking for her.
"Uchiha Sasuke," a voice bellowed. He turned to look. It was Tsunade. "We are happy that you have returned, but you have some severe consequences in store for you. Do you accept those condition in order to be accepted back?" There was an expecting silence.
"I accept those consequences." The crowd cheered.
Tsunade smiled sadly at him. "Follow me."
They walked in silence all the way to the Hokage's office and he was greeted by a loud shout and a tackled hug. "Sasuke-teme! You're back!" Naruto shouted. Sasuke smiled at him. By the looks of Naruto, he seemed to be part of the ANBU.
"Hey, dobe." Naruto smiled sadly at him. Sasuke had seen lots of people doing that; he couldn't help but wonder why.
"I wish Sakura were here to see that you've come back."
"Where is she?" Sasuke blurted.
Tsunade cleared her throat. "Well, you see. That was going to be your first mission. An emergency one. You are to lead a squad out to one of Orochimaru's lairs and get Sakura back. Sasuke's eyes widened.
"You mean—"
"She was kidnapped a few years ago and we just recently got her possible whereabouts. If you succeed in bringing her back, you will be released from any punishment and you will be accepted back as if noting had happened. Okay?"
Sasuke processed all this shocking information for a few seconds, then agreed to the set conditions.
"You will set out today in one hour. There is no time to waste." Tsunade handed him a scroll. "This contains all the information for this S-ranked mission. Your squad will be composed of Naruto, Shikamaru, Ino, Kiba, Neji, and Hinata. They have been hand-picked for maximum success rate. Good luck. You are dismissed!"
"Yes," they both answered formally. They bowed and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
An hour later, the whole squad was ready to set out by the gates. Some of the villagers saw them off and wished them good luck.
As they headed out, Sasuke asked the whole story behind the mission.
"Well, Sakura had gotten stronger while you were gone. She seemed to powered by hatred though, and Orochimaru took an interest in that," Ino said.
"Hatred?" Sasuke asked. They all looked uncomfortable. "Hatred for what?"
There was a tense silence, then Hinata answered shyly, "For you, Sasuke-san." Sasuke looked stunned. "After you left, she was crushed. She kept on training, maybe in hopes of proving herself to you someday, who knows? We would often find her almost completely drained of chakra on the training grounds and on the verge of death. She overworked herself so much!"
"But we could never get her to stop…" Naruto said sadly. "She changed, Sasuke. She wasn't the cheerful girl we knew anymore. She was so…distant."
"Cold and lonely," Neji said.
"And a few years later, there was a raid on the village. And in between the chaos, Orochimaru took his chance and took her," Naruto spat hatefully.
"It was really sad. Just being round her, you could feel some of her pain," Kiba's voice broke in. Even he missed her.
"She was a really great ninja," Shikamaru said.
Almost as a dismissing statement, the conversation ended and Sasuke was left to ponder. Was it my fault? he wondered sadly.
They had been running for quite some time, and finally, they reached their destination. It was an underground lair, and there was only one entrance. Which meant that there was only once exit.
"Here's the plan. We have to bee quick and precise. We go in, Hinata and Neji will use their Byakuugan and search for her. Shikamaru, you will come up with instantaneous plans for emergency encounters. The rest of us will keep watch over them and fight anyone who gets in the way. Got it?"
"What if we meet Orochimaru?" Hinata asked.
"He won't be here. And our only goal now is to get Sakura back. Okay, here we go." Sasuke inched forward the entrance and stepped into the deep darkness.
The nervous ninja followed suit and tensed as they felt the humid dark and the stench of fear lingering in the air. Hinata and Neji activated their Byakuugan and searched. Their mission had started.

Sirius ignored the screams of his mother's portrait. He lay his hand on the canvas, dragging his fingers slowly over it.
"Take your hands off me!" Walburga ordered, but he didn't.
"I had hoped when you were dead, I wouldn't have to deal with you any longer," he said, sneering. "Clearly, I was wrong. You're never going to go away, are you?"
"When you went to Azkaban, I was hoping never to see you again, you vile little blood traitor!" Walburga shrieked, but she was silenced when Sirius grabbed the curtains and pulled them over the painting, hiding her from view.

Butt welding is a welding technique used to connect parts which are nearly parallel and don't overlap. It can be used to run a processing machine continuously, as opposed to having to restart such machine with a new supply of metals. Butt-welding is an economical and reliable way of joining without using additional components.
Usually, a butt-welding joint is made by gradually heating up the two weld ends with a weld plate and then joining them under a specific pressure. This process is very suitable for prefabrication and producing special fittings. Afterward, the material is usually ground down to a smooth finish and either sent on its way to the processing machine, or sold as a completed product.
This type of weld is usually accomplished with an arc or MIG welder. It can also be accomplished by brazing. With arc welding, after the butt weld is complete, the weld itself needs to be struck with a hammer forge to remove slag (a type of waste material) before any subsequent welds can be applied. This is not necessary for MIG welds however, as a protective gas removes any need for slag to appear. Another with a MIG welder is that a continuous copper coated wire is fed onto the stock, making the weld virtually inexhaustible.[1]
Hand welding[edit]
A joint between two members aligned approximately in the same plane. Butt welding can also be achieved through traditional blow torches in the most common form of butt joints, a process that uses some variety of flux, usually a tin-based solder and precise hand-eye coordination that is common for hand-made boxes of copper, brass, and silver. There are two types of butt welding; one is carried out by smiting and another is carried out by welding two work pieces by non-overlapping.
The process consists of two desired strips of metal that are lined with flux that is lightly dried with a blowtorch until it is a sticky consistency, followed by cutting a strip of solder that is generally 20% of the full joint's size. Applying heat gently makes the gel-like flux now appear white and powdery which now is primed to be welded in which the blow torch is arched so that the "heat cone", the bluest and hottest part of the flame, is now directly upon the solder melting the joints together evenly.
The joint is then cooled and cleaned in a solution of sulfuric acid diluted in 20 parts water – commonly known as "pickle" – to remove imperfections. Sanding and polishing then achieves the desired finishing.
Upset Weld[edit]
The parts to be welded are clamped edge to edge in copper jaws of the welding machine and brought together in a solid contact so that their point of contact forms a locality of high electric resistance, while current flows to heat the joint . At this point the pressure applied upsets or forges the parts together . Upset buttwelding is used principally on non ferrous materials for welding bars, rods, wire, tubing, formed parts, etc.
EN 1993-1-8, which covers the design of joints in the design of steel structures, defines a set of provisions for welding structural steel.

SIT relied on accused but not witnesses: Zakia Jafri's lawyer
Jafri has demanded that SIT report be rejected, and the persons against whom she had filed complaint (Modi and others) should be chargesheeted.
Ahmedabad: The Special Investigation Team, which probed Zakia Jafri's accusation of complicity in facilitating the 2002 Gujarat riots against Chief Minister Narendra Modi and others, relied upon "the accused" but not the witnesses in its probe, her lawyer said on Monday.
"SIT in its closure report has relied upon statements of high-ranking government officials against whom we have complained but not bothered to investigate or verify what the witnesses, such as the then head of state Intelligence Bureau R B Sreekumar, has said under oath about complicity of state administration," said Jafri's lawyer Mihir Desai.
Desai was arguing before Metropolitan Magistrate B J Ganatra, who is hearing Jafri's petition which challenges SIT's closure report giving a clean chit to Modi and others. Jafri, whose husband and ex-Congress MP Ehsan Jafri was killed during the riots, has demanded that SIT report be rejected, and the persons against whom she had filed complaint (Modi and others) should be charge-sheeted.
"SIT can argue against IPS officers like Sanjeev Bhatt that he woke up after so many years but how can SIT ignore what Sreekumar had said in detail while he was still a serving high official of the state," advocate Desai said. The lawyer was referring to the affidavits filed by Sreekumar, then Additional DGP (intelligence) before Justice G T Nanavati commission.
Sreekumar has claimed that he maintained a register in which he noted every "illegal" instruction given to him either by the Chief Minister or high-ranking officials such as state secretaries G Subbarao, G C Murmu, Ashok Narayan and State Intelligence Bureau's Joint Director Rajendra Kumar.
Advocate Desai said if the SIT, as an investigation agency, wanted to find out if the high-ranking officers were guilty, it should have verified Sreekumar's contentions. "SIT has asked those officials, as per its own report, if there exists such a register, but it has never asked if entries and allegations made in it were true or not," he said.
However, SIT lawyer R S Jamuar protested, saying, "SIT is not an investigating agency and Supreme Court has only asked it to look into the complaint made in regards to the incidents of February 27 and 28 of 2002, not beyond it." "If SIT believes that apex court has mandated not to probe anything beyond February 28 and whatever said by Sreekumar was irrelevant, then why SIT spent more than 20 pages in its report and why it has gone into the allegations made by him," Desai retorted. Magistrate Ganatra intervened at this stage and adjourned the hearing till tomorrow.

Sandy's Name
Unlike most of the mothers she knew, Felicity had no problems simultaneously doing the washing up and holding a strongly protesting two-year-old. Besides working in childcare for almost nine years, she had also been to circus school one summer when she was young and had learnt how to juggle literally anything.
While Rose thrashed under her mother's arm, her brother was seated at the table behind them, scribbling feverishly on a piece of old-fashioned printer paper. Like everything else, Sandy approached drawing with fierce determination, always breaking the paper and often snapping the pencil as well. For all her experience in childcare, she had never known a six-year-old to be as bull-headed as her son was.
At a tug on the back of her shirt Felicity looked over her shoulder, raising an eyebrow. Sandy's expression was grave. "Who was I named after?" he asked her.
Felicity leaned against the counter, smiling as she picked her gloves off. "Well, your grandfather's name was Alexander." She tilted her head curiously as Sandy nodded. "Why do you ask?"
The boy only shrugged and retreated to the table. She heard him scrawl something and then push his chair back. Right as he scrambled through the door Blacky slunk into the kitchen, watching Sandy go by. Father and son didn't touch as they breezed in opposite directions through the doorway.
"Guess what I just got quizzed on," Felicity challenged Blacky as he sat down, rubbing his face as if he'd just woken up. In fact he had been at work; his old boss, Mrs Foo, was happy enough to continue to offer him dishes to clean for a pittance. He effected an expression of unenthusiastic expectation.
Shifting the now quieting Rose in her arms, Felicity said, "Sandy asked who he was named after."
"He's named after himself," Blacky answered blandly. "He's his own person."
Her best intentions couldn't keep Felicity from grinning at that. If there was one thing that drove him mad more than anything else, it was his name, a measly inheritance from a dead great-uncle. She patted her daughter's head innocuously. "Well, I told him that your father's name happened to have been Alexander."
"That has nothing to do with anything," he murmured sulkily, his eyes dropping to the piece of half-shredded paper on the table. Suddenly he pulled it towards him, straightening up, and cursed loudly, glancing up at her. "Look at this!"
Curious, Felicity stepped away from the sink and leaned forward to look at the drawing Blacky was holding up. As far as she could tell, it was a shark -- Sandy loved sharks -- and below it, where he always faithfully signed his work, was "Aleksander" in messy, cramped script.
Blacky's indignation could not stop her laughter. "Well, look at that!" she exclaimed. "Would you put that face away? He wants to know he has a family outside this house. Let it go."
"He doesn't have a family outside this house!" Blacky retorted. "I think that was made quite clear to us before he was even born." He hesitated, turning the drawing to look at it, his brows furrowed.
"What now?" Felicity sighed.
Blacky seemed to debate with himself for a moment longer, eyeing his now dozing daughter. "It's actually probably his best drawing so far," he admitted.
"What a shame he ruined it," she snorted. He glared at her and she threw her hands up in despair. "Alright, fine! He's not named after your father." Depositing Rose into Blacky's arms, she took the drawing and walked across the kitchen holding it up. "But it is fridge-worthy."
"Fine," Blacky muttered, and Felicity turned her back, counted to three, and flicked a glance over her shoulder. In the instant before he scowled at her again, she caught his small smile.
