By FRANCO PANIZO
UPPER MONTCLAIR, N.J. — Eddie Johnson may seem like a confident player for the Seattle Sounders these days, but that's only because of the belief his new team has had in him.
After spending eight months without a club and rejoining MLS this past winter, Johnson has shaken off a rough start to the season by finding the scoring touch that made him one of the most lethal forwards in MLS prior to his departure for Europe four years ago.
The 28-year-old striker, who has scored five times in his last five league matches and has earned a place in the MLS All-Star Game, attributes most of his recent success to being able to settle in with the Sounders and the confidence that head coach Sigi Schmid and the rest of the club have given him.
"When you go into a new organization, it takes time," Johnson told SBI. "Some people adapt earlier than others, some people adapt later. But one thing that helps bring the confidence in your ability is the people around you.
"The coach has been positive with me, my teammates have been positive with me, I've been working hard. [Fitness coach] Dave Tenney, I worked with him in Kansas City. When you have a bit of downspell in your career, it's about getting back with the people that helped you get to the top."
Johnson's downspell was a big one. After transferring from the then-Kansas City Wizards to Fulham in January 2008, Johnson immediately struggled to consistently get playing time with the Cottagers. Some chalked it up to him needing to get accustomed to life abroad while others believed he just was not good enough.
The following years saw him bounce around different leagues and clubs while on loan from Fulham. He did enjoy some success with Greek outfit Aris Salonika in 2010, and that resulted in then-U.S. men's national team head coach Bob Bradley calling him into a 30-man preliminary roster prior to the World Cup.
Unfortunately for Johnson, he did not make that World Cup quad, nor did he ever find a stable situation in Europe. In fact, he almost called it quits altogether after his contract with Fulham expired after the 2010-2011 season because of a death to a close relative in the family.
Still, Johnson does not look back on his time in Europe negatively.
"I can't say as a player that I played much, but I did learn a lot and I got better as a soccer player," said Johnson. "I'm happy for the experience. I'm one of the few Americans that has had the opportunity to play in the Premiership and I wouldn't change anything with that whole experience.
"You live and you learn. It made me stronger as a player. I had a chance to play some of the best players in the world and learn from some of the best players in the world, and it's made me into the player I am today."
The player Johnson is showing he is today is an improved version of the one that was creating havoc for defenses around the league just over four years ago. Johnson still has that trademark blazing speed that so many know him for but he is also a more polished and well-rounded goal-scorer, with his team-high eight goals standing testament to that.
"He's certainly done what we think he could do," said Schmid. "It took him a while to get fit, get his touch and rhythm of play but I think he's gotten that behind him now, so it's good."
Johnson admits that not being with Seattle for much of the preseason left him with a lot of catching up to do, especially considering he had gone the last eight months without playing soccer at a competitive level (though he did train on his own in Florida during that time in an effort to maintiain some of his fitness).
The move to join the Sounders, however, came about after Johnson and Mexican club Puebla had a falling out. Johnson had verbally agreed to a deal to join Puebla last winter, but the club later went on to withdraw their offer.
That opened the door for the Sounders to make a deal with the Montreal Impact (who were atop the allocation order at the time) to grab Johnson, who is now solely focusing on continuing to repay the faith the club has shown in him.
"Sigi, [general manager Adrian Hanauer], [technical director] Chris Henderson, they've all had my back and I just want to pay them back for them believing in me," said Johnson. "National team call-ups, whatever other things come on the side is a bonus. I just want to be as consistent as I can as a player and when you're consistent, good things happen."
EJ has been playing great the last two months. From what I've seen, he has gotten better and better each game. He has a bit of an attitude problem unfortunately, but hopefully he can keep it in check and continue to produce.
EJ's path makes for a great story. Good for him.
He has been playing well. True. But he also punched that player on the bench a few games back. So, I can't help but feel little respect for him.
Not his first incident this season. He taunted the crap out of at least three other teams after Sounders wins. I like EJ's skills and work ethic on the pitch, but he seems like he is a second away from doing something stupid at any given time.
He's been brilliant this season. He's got amazing speed and technical ability, as well as a good work rate. Deserves a chance on the national team in my opinion
To be clear, there was some amount of contact (how much is unclear) between EJ and a player that had come off the SJ bench and quite clearly pushed him seemingly in reaction to EJ crowing a bit about winning a hard-fought match.
Let's not make it sound like he ran over and cold-cocked someone sitting on the bench minding their own business.
He's got an attitude, I'm not sure how much of a problem it is.
Well, he fits right in with his club then.
He and Wondo are our best in form strikers at the month but dear GOD keep them away from the Nats. Let's continue with 1 striker up top and keep Altidore, Gomez getting the call ups. Boyd and Agudelo are coming along fine. They might be ready for the WC. EJ should not be. Heck we even have Charlie Davies if he can score some in Denmark
I was literally about to say that EJ and Wondo are probably the best strikers who should have no business suiting up for USMNT
My buddy has a Cardiff city t shirt that says " I saw Eddie Johnson score"
Are you people serious??? This guy is a bum. He is the worst decision maker of any stiker I have ever seen. On top of it, he is a moron, and extremely unintelligent. Did anyone watch him last night against Chelsea. Dude, had at least 4 or 5 clear scoring opportunities that of course he blew. He had the chance to prove himself, and learn quickly that athleticism alone does not make you a good soccer player. His goals this year are all luck. Do not call him up. He does not deserve it.
That must be a very rare shirt!! ">
Fully agree with that. I love his confidence and he has worked very hard for the Sounders, no problems with his attitude at all.
Trollololololololol. U MAD TODD?
Erik must be a portland fan… ha!
what about his hugging stance in the above pic? not bad. i'm guessing that one was of the bear hug variety intended for sigi
Would a Sounders fan objectively break down his game these days for those of us who don't get to see him regularly?
You might want to wait for Davies to show he can actually get in a game for Randers before you start talking about him playing for the USMNT.
The good: Excellent finisher with his head and his feet. Dangerous shooter to about 18-20 yards with his right foot. Excellent acceleration and top end speed. Good ball skills, excellent 1 on 1, and a better than average passer.
The bad: relies on tricks too much (stepovers being the primary evil), there are some very unsubstantiated allegations of failing to get along in the locker room (which seem to be total crap but persist nonetheless), and, as other have mentioned, seems to always be a step away from something that makes you cringe (SJ incident, taking off shirt for yellow card, taking a throw in in the attacking third when it makes absolutely no sense).
All in all, he is an excellent addition to the team and is probably in the top 10 of forwards in the league, pushing top five in current form.
He started off slowly, but has rounded into form and has played very well for the past two months. He makes intelligent runs, his first touch and passing have been very impressive. His favorite move is a combination of anywhere from 3-12 stepovers. He has been scoring with his head lately, but his finishing could use some work. He usually starts to tire out in the second half, but he has been playing a ton of games lately. He goes down very easy sometimes and it can be frustrating to watch. With all of that being said, he has definitely given the Sounders attack another dimension and he has consistently improved from day one. I don't think he is anywhere close to being ready to rejoin the USMNT, but if he continues his hard work, he might get another chance in the future.
Eddie Johnson is dead to me.
Biggest waste of talent.
Yeah… what has Eddie Johnson ever done with his talent?
He could score 100 goals this season and still shouldn't get any time at the national team. He has been done for years…he was never able to get out of the way of his ego.
What did he say "The coach has been positive with me, my teammates have been positive with me, I've been working hard". Who care's…force them to play you by your actions not your words. "I have been working hard"…really?…you always should have been working hard. Thank good for Dempsey to clean up the stink you left at Fulham.
Shut up and play and be thankful the MLS took you back….and be grateful the level of play is low enough that you can score regularly.
Thank god for Dempsey.
EJ was the best Sounder on the field against Chelsea, including Montero. He was constantly causing Chelsea's backline problems and did yeoman's hold-up work. I have heard that he came from a challenging upbringing which may explain some of his undisciplined period. But by all accounts that I have been privy to he is a really nice guy off the field and is sincerely trying to make the most of the opportunity the Sounders gave him. I am rooting for him.
chris R
Some of you guys never have anything good to say about anyone. Your life must be miserable.
The negativity from several posters over and over is just sickening.
Natural born haters. If you arent hating on Eddie's article then its the one before that or the one after it.
chris J
I think people hate on him b/c they think he was born with this amazing gift and hasn't had to work for anything. This is a common narrative about certain athletes, though not so common about white athletes, as it turns out. (Ever notice that?) It's seriously tiresome…
It's pretty much B.S., though, in EJ's case. He's a good but not a great athlete. He's fast but not super-fast. He's never had magic feet (like, say, Dempsey or Cleetus) or a pure soccer brain (like, say, Reyna). Like most mortals, he has to work hard to get better, which he is doing. EJ has grown up a lot — on the field and off. His return to MLS is turning out to be a great story. Thanks for the reporting, SBI.
There was contact but it wasn't a punch.
cap him now!
You write as if you have some degree of personal familiarity with EJ.
If you do not then I would say your comments are mostly empty BS or you are posting after losing your meds.
If EJ continues to perform as he has done, so far, no easy task,of course he will get some USMNT consideration.
If the level of MLS play being low was actually a consideration then guys like Cameron, Ream, Donovan, Shea, Beckerman et. al, would never have gotten looks from JK.

The seats are tan vinyl, fully reclinable, with adjustable head rest. They are very supportive in the seat and back, but seem a little tight in their width. In putting them into my TJ, I found the adapter brackets to be ill-fitting, and poorly designed. They are difficult to move forward or back due to the tilt lever interfering with the operation of the seat slider. The tilt mechanism barely works and requires herculean effort to make it do so. My wife can't operate it at all. That being said, buy Corbeau, not these seats. I will have to modify the bracket to make them work effectively.

SNTE, the semiprivate company that manages the tower for Paris, allows the press and postcard makers to use the image for free. But moviemakers, advertisers and others seeking to use the tower's image for commercial use must pay.
Prices vary, depending on the medium and how long an ad will run. SNTE official Stephane Dieu said the firm charges $19,600 for commercials that run for a year on French television — and possibly more for a worldwide campaign. Print advertisers are charged $650 to $6,500.
The company says the trademark's primary purpose is to protect the tower's image — not make megabucks.
"We don't make a commerce of it," Dieu said.
Other Parisian public monuments, like the Pantheon where French luminaries are buried and the Arc de Triomphe, are free of rights — by day or by night, according to Paris City Hall and the Center for National Monuments, a public body that manages French landmarks.
The effort to protect the universally recognized Eiffel Tower shows that times have changed since the uproar that met engineer Gustave Eiffel's contribution to the World's Fair in 1889.
An artists' petition at the time attacked the 1,024-foot tower as "useless and monstrous," the "dishonor of Paris" which "commercial America herself would want nothing of."
But today, it seems everybody wants a piece of Paris' best-known landmark — which drew more than 6 million visitors last year.
Of the Eiffel Tower's $8 million profit in 2003, just $69,276 came from payment of rights for commercial use of the image, the SNTE says. More than 90% of Eiffel Tower profits go to city funds.
Dieu said SNTE handles about 1,000 image rights cases a year, of which less than 100 result in payment. Tourists posting pictures on their own Web sites will not be hearing from the SNTE, he stressed.
The Eiffel Tower's trademark was established when artist Pierre Bideau installed the tower's current illumination in 1985.
To mark the new millennium in 2000, the tower was covered with 20,000 flashing light bulbs. The spectacle left Parisians wanting more, and the twinkling lights, another Bideau creation, were put up on a permanent basis in 2003, becoming a feature of Paris by night. Like the original lighting, the sparkling lights are a registered trademark. They twinkle for 10 minutes of every hour, from nightfall until 2 a.m.
Philippe Francois, who handles legal issues for another Paris monument, the Grande Arche de la Defense, said a lighting artist's work should be protected and rewarded.
"If you use specifically the image of the lit Eiffel Tower, it is because it has additional beauty," Francois said.
But Gerard Ducrey, a lawyer who specializes in communication and image issues, disagreed.
"Without the monument, the lighting couldn't exist. It seems paradoxical to me that by this addition one can decide that a monument situated in the public domain be appropriated in a privative way," he said.
Jean-Bernard Bros, SNTE president and deputy mayor of Paris for tourism, said the lighting trademark has helped protect the tower in a changing media environment.
The legal leverage proved useful against a Web site advertising prostitutes — along with a picture of the tower. A call from the SNTE's lawyers was enough to settle the case, Dieu said.

So I started up favor of the gods, and when I spawned, my champion was invisible/not there. I spawned right beside the ledge, but i could not move, or attack, or get hit. I could see my life bar, though. It seems I was stuck inbetween the wall, and after i finally got pushed around a bit, my character finally jumped down and joined the fight right when it was over. Metlgearsolid200 was there.
It was very strange and that's never happened to me before.

Teachers! Doing It For Themselves!Mature
Act 6
(At the hospital, Danny and Wilhelmina, have just finished watching George's video)
Danny: Well… shit.
Wilhelmina: How? How could he?
Danny: He has to tell the others, right now!
Wilhelmina: I'm going to Florence's house, that's where they all were.
Danny: I'll come with… (Tries to stand up, but winces in pain and falls to the floor)
Wilhelmina: Stab wounds hey?
Danny: Fuck them… I can do this, it's just a bit of fucking pain, I can deal with it (tries to stand up but he clearly can't)
Wilhelmina: Mr. Tough, has finally been undermined.
Danny: (panting): Have-not…
Nurse (approaching scene): What on earth is going on here? (To Danny) You! Get back into bed! (To Wilhelmina) YOU! Jesus Christ, just leave already, go home!
Wilhelmina: I don't have a home, I'm homeless, I'm sure the rags, lack of shoes and hair are a bit of a give away.
Danny: You forgot the smell.
Wilhelmina: Bog off Damien, (back to nurse) but yeah, I'm homeless.
Danny: Oh Boo-Hoo! Do you think anyone cares?
Wilhelmina: You should your homeless too.
Nurse: Wait, what?
Danny: Yeah I'm homeless too.
Nurse (stuttering): Wait if you're homeless, then whose paying your hospital fees?
Danny: What hospital fees?
Nurse: Young man, I thought your parents would pay for you.
Danny: My parents are dead.
Wilhelmina (childishly): Oh Boo-Hoo!
Nurse: Will you two quit boo-hooing each other, you both annoying the hell out of everyone here! So you're telling me Danny Flynn, you have no money?
Danny: Well no, it's the NHS anyway, free healthcare… (Looks around) right?
Nurse: Not one penny… is there anything else you have to tell me?
Danny: Well on the streets I'm a professional thief and proud of it. I steal money and food (Nurse is gasping in horror at this point)
Wilhelmina (unhelpfully to the nurse): Oh what you gasping for love, I'm a recovering alcoholic, I mean let's face it… (Addressing everyone in the ward) WE LIVE IN MORTDALE PEOPLE! DAMIEN HERE MAY BE A THIEF AND ME A FORMER DRUNK BUT YOU'VE PROBABLY KILLED 10 PEOPLE IN YOUR LIVES! SO WHAT'S THE FUSS ALL ABOUT!
(There is silence, everyone in the ward is elderly and look helpless and innocent)
Danny: (Putting the final nail in the coffin) Oh don't look at us look that, me and Wilhelmina here both had to kill our dad's… so who'd you lot kill? Come on we'll share kills…
(Everyone is staring at them in horror)
(Two minutes later, Danny and Wilhelmina are thrown out of the front door of the hospital)
Danny: FREE NHS! MY ARSE! LIES! LIES! I'M GONNA SUE! I'M MAKING A TRAIL AND THIS IS NOT GONNA BE DROPPED! I COULD DIE OF INFECTION OUT HERE!
Wilhelmina: OH COME ON! IT'S NOT AS BAD AS IT SOUNDS, KILLING OUR DAD'S… THEY WERE EVIL SHIT'S ANYWAY!
Danny: Well done.
Wilhelmina: Me? you're the one that told everyone we killed our dad's!
Danny: You added the whole, I'm a former drunk and homeless card!
Wilhelmina: For the love of God! What are we bickering about!? We can both go and show the other's George's tape (retrieves it from the depths of her rags) still I…
Voice: What the fuck is going on here?
(Daz says that, arriving at the hospital with flowers)
Danny: Mr Winters.
Daz: It Daz retard.
Danny: How very dare I get that wrong, anyhow why the fuck do you have flowers?
Daz: Erm... visiting my girlfriend.
Wilhelmina: So you do have a heart then?
Daz: Well… (Changing topic) why you here?
Wilhelmina: We just got kicked out anyhow we watched the tape.
Daz: What tapes?
Danny: That bum plugger at White View, made em, Mr. Masterbate was his name, he made tapes of everyone in Mortdale, uncovering their most private moments.
Daz (going white): What?
(Wilhelmina explains all)
Daz (opened mouthed, at long explanation): Yeah what evez, is my tape there?
Wilhelmina: Course, their probably watching it right now.
Daz: SHIT! They cor see that! (Dropping flowers) we are getting there now!
Danny: What about your girlfriend, Daz?
Daz: Screw her, some things are more important.
Wilhelmina: Such a loving boyfriend… *Note the already obvious sarcasm*
(The three set off)
(Meanwhile in Florence's house)
Florence: Well here we go next tape…
(Suzanne presses play)
Mr Masterbate: And here we have project 210, Steve Innis…
Greg: Steve's tape hmm? Hope it shows something we missed…
(Cut to a younger Steve, hanging around with Riley Tibet near to St. Amanda's)
Riley: The way my brother goes on about it, it sounds like the whole of Black Crest are planning an assault on this school.
Steve: Cor they go bother some White View kids?
Riley: What? With that Marsh Girl hacking off the heads of anyone that gets close to her, they've kept a safe distance. I mean that pyshco bitch is crazy, not to mention she has a huge nose…
(Mrs Conrad it seems appears out of thin air)
Mrs Conrad: What were you saying…?
Riley (panicked): Nothing!
Mrs Conrad: Good, because you would not believe how good my hearing is.
(She leaves, Riley and Steve follow in her wake, passing White View school as they walk)
Riley: Glad school's off early today… but look at them in there, their hopeless to attack.
(A younger Miss Lofty is on the field, preaching to everyone about her sheep)
Miss Lofty: Mr Lamb-Kings became a daddy a few days back...
Danica: Oh for the love of God Jolene, it's a wonder you have no friends other than your sheep.
Miss Lofty (tearful): Yeah well, I'd rather have my sheep, than your gang of gorilla's.
(A passing Mrs Conrad is impressed at that comment)
Mrs Conrad: Now that's one I'll use in the future, even if it came from the likes a dipshit like yourself Lofty.
Eric (whose next to her): Aw come on Helen, Jolene Lofty is harmless.
Mrs Conrad: Exactly, she's not ready for real life.
Miss Lofty: I am, you're all just mean.
(Harry Tedious and his group of friends investigate the commotion, as does Margaret Wellington)
Miss Wellington: Oh come on there... there… Jolene, don't let them get to you.
Danica: You're only saying that because you're gonna end up just like her. Lonely with no one to live with, but your 20 cats.
Miss Wellington: Oh please shut up Danica.
Marty Sue (Danica's boyfriend): OI! Eric is that you!
Eric: Shit! (Trying to hide his face but failing)
Mrs Conrad: Well what are you ashamed of?
Marty Sue: You obviously.
Mrs Conrad: My patience is waning Marty, do you want to find yourself in a similar position to Erika Jules, because it would be my great honour to shove you in front of a truck.
Marty Sue: (gulping): No… but Eric man… you're hanging around with her? What the fuck dude? What's wrong with ya?
Eric (mumbling): I just thought she was cool and pretty badass and these past couple of days, she seems like a right laugh.
Danica: You're kidding me? Helen a laugh? HA! Well Marty honey, as head of the football team, do you really want a player who hangs around with Helen Marsh? I wouldn't.
Marty Sue: You're right Danica… Eric you're off the team man.
Mrs Conrad: Well that occurred quickly.
Eric: BUT…!
Marty Sue: Then ditch her and come with us man.
Eric: No! You know what!? I'm fed up of your prissy, little, popular, gang! For once I actually feel appreciated with Helen! (People are starting to stare) So screw the football team! (Gasps) YOU THINK HELEN'S A BULLY!? LOOK AT YOURSELVES!
Mr Tedious: I agree (The popular Posy, glare at him)
Mr Tedious: I meant about screwing the football team, I mean who can be bothered to run around like that? Jeez…
Danica: Shut the fuck up Harry, you lazy, shitty, slob.
Mr Tedious: Jeez… you lot are ratty.
Danica: FREAKS! (Indicating Mrs Conrad, Miss Lofty, Mr Tedious and his friends Miss Wellington and Eric)
Voice: WHAT'S GOING ON HERE!
Danica: Piss off you two.
(Mr Redwood and Miss Noel stand there)
Mr Redwood: As- former- head- boy!
Miss Noel: And me as head girl… Jolene uniform! Anyway, as former head students here, we have authority here.
Marty-Sue: You're like 30 now, just fucking leave already.
Mr Redwood: We are entitled to come back and visit whenever we want.
Mrs Conrad: Oh please just leave, where could you possibly work that is that bad, you want to come here?
Mr Redwood (lying): Erm- we- work- in- a- decent- school- now.
Miss Noel: Yes we do!
Mr Redwood: Black- Cr… I- mean- the- school- we- work- at- is- in- London- and- its- very- high- class- with- high- pass- rates- so- we- have- high- levels- of- authority.
Miss Lofty: Right then.
(From the benches overlooking the field, Mrs Layton can be seen gossiping away to Lucy's Mum Lily… and Chantelle's mother Zoe can be seen waddling around Pregnant as the camera refocuses on Steve and Ripley)
Ripley: Mad school they got there, why can't Black Crest just attack them? Sure the Marsh girl is deadly, but she's just one girl.
Steve I'm just one guy and I can repel them like she does.
Ripley: You're a fucking tank mate, no one messes with you.
Voice: I wouldn't mind messing with this stud.
(The two leap back in surprise, Miss Ougar and Zsa Zsa Henshell have snuck up on them both are in their mid-20's)
Ripley: Oh it's you two, the prostitutes.
Miss Ougar: I'm not for much longer actually, I've singed on to that school I should be the art teacher soon.
Steve: Wow… what a shock, actually making a living by keeping your clothes… wait a minute, you're gonna seduce younger boys In there, aren't you?
Miss Ougar (blushing and lying): Don't be ridiculous, I plan to be professional in there.
Ripley: I'll bet you do.
Zsa Zsa: Yeah well, I'm hoping to start a family myself soon, settle down a little you know, find a nice man.
Ripley (guffawing): Yeah good luck with that.
Zsa Zsa (severely offended): HMPH! I'll have you know I have 10 men a night, wanting my services! So do you want to join the queue?
Steve: Nah love, we have standards.
Zsa Zsa: But I'm chilli hot pepper chick! You can't turn me down!
Ripley: Yeah for now, you're hot, but by the way you're going, you're going to be at it till you're 70.
Zsa Zsa: Don't be daft… fine, you two miss out.
(Her and Miss Ougar walk off giggling madly)
Steve: Hoes…
Ripley: Tell me about it, the lot of em from White View are such oddballs…
(Pulls out a Ouija board, making him look as weird as the white View's he just described)
Steve: Erm mate… the word hypocrite, gets tossed around a lot but…
Ripley: (as they walk away from White View): I know, I look odd with this, but it's got my Walkie talkie inside, so I can contact you in case of.... you know what.
Steve: It ay gonna happen, they are not gonna attack, so quit yer yappin.
Voice: Who ain't gonna attack?
(Steve sighs as Frank Tibet himself and Alexander Flynn round the corner)
Steve: Fuck off.
Frank: Hello to you as well. Well… well… little bro, talking to your little board again?
Ripley: It will save me from you and your gang of scumbags!
Frank: Ah not scumbags, merely boys looking for... fun.
Ripley: By stabbing innocent people?
Frank: Problem?
Ripley: You're insane!
Frank: What you gonna do? (shoves him) tell mummy and daddy, they hate me anyway.
Ripley: You're just jealous, because you can't be like me.
Frank (enraged): Oh you little shit, I'm gonna…
Steve: Try that, I'll pummel you.
Frank: (To Ripley): Yeah little bro, so I'll get you next, when Steve ain't around you're toast… just wait… one day…
Ripley (lying): You don't scare me.
Alexander: Yeah maybe I can try.
Steve: Oh how you doin' Flynn, who'd you rape this week?
Alexander: No one… the bitch came onto me this time actually. I reckon she really wanted the full package.
Steve: I bet the bitch was blind to even touch the likes of you.
Alexander: Watch it Stevie boy, you may think you're all hard but we will wear you down eventually.
(The two depart)
Steve: I'm sorry his your brother.
Ripley: Me too, still as I was saying…
(Video cuts off there)
Joey: Well that was intriguing, still yew (points at teachers) used to hang out at school?
Mrs Layton: Oh yeah, after that Lily got expelled from school, I had no one to talk too, so I hung around with there little odd group. Fun times.
Mr Tedious: My friends all "died" after that video, so I was stuck with the group.
Eric: Yeah, remember how we got Marty back, after we knew it was him that killed your buddies?
Mrs Conrad: Right after he had his little girl, thought it would be funny to go be a dickhead as usual, so he met the same fate as Erika Jules, the look on Danica's face at the funreal made my life.
Eric: Sounds harsh kids, but you didn't know Marty, he earned it.
Greg: So that's why you hired these people! They were your old friends Mrs Conrad!
Mrs Conrad: Not "friends" merely other beings, I slightly preferred over the rest.
Lucy: That's why Miss Lofty was there as well!
Mrs Conrad: Me and Jolene went into teaching at first, eventually I persuaded the rest of the "gang" to follow.
Helpless TA: I wasn't, Mr. Masterbate was always watching children, Miss Ougar and Zsa Zsa, well you now how they ended up there. The rest of teachers just got employed, so mystery answered.
Mr Rayne: Well I wasn't in that friendship group I just...
Joey: And here comes the sob story...

Dad Dicken Schrader does an amazing job of choreographing his kids Milah and Korben to their own cover of Depeche Mode's "Everything Counts," including some wonderful recorder work by Milah. And just as geeks, we can admire his collection of toys on the back wall of his studio. You go, geeky dad!

Is my mole excision/cauterization healing correctly or is it infected? (Photo)
I got my mole removed a week ago and it still looks terrible i put some hydrogen peroxide on it and it turned white and now it looks like this and is this going to scar and how long untill it will heal and close up? Please help i dont want a scar on my chest!
Doctor Answers 1
Scar After Mole Removal From Chest
Dear maggjtvato18~It looks as if you have some redness and swelling which is normal after a mole removal. If you had a shave excision with cautery, the area that was treated will be exposed/open and it will have a scab until it heals over. If after complete healing the scar is not satisfactory, there are many options to improve the appearance, including steroid injections, laser, and microneedling. Please continue to follow-up with your physician and avoid using any hydrogen peroxide unless recommended.Best wishes,Amy Hsu

With Dolphin's Help (Part 2)
"Oh, wow! I'm just happy that I have this opportunity to get on the boat and enjoy this happy journey! Look at the colour of water! How nice..." Elly exclaimed.
"True." Annika Thompson, one of the members said, "You know that I joined Dolphin Rescue Team 5 years ago. When I first went to save the dolphins, water was bright blue. I'm just sad that water is getting polluted every year. Because of the water pollution, more and more dolphins are getting killed and injured."
"Yes, I agree." Rosemary said.
"Attention please!" Rosemary said, "We will be having dinner at 8 PM, and we will be going to sleep around 10 PM. Wind will blow stronger and stroger, so be careful."
"Rose, where are we now?" Ji-Hyun Lim (JH for short), one of the Korean members asked.
"Let me check, JH..." Rosemary said.
"Emergency, emergency, emergency, emergency!!! A huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge shark, a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge shark that you cannot imagine how big it is just came by!! Half of the boat is broken! We can't move! Now we are in the middle of the ocean, and we are stuck here. What should we do?" A boat driver 'Michael' said in a loud voice.
"Then where's Rose? Is she..." JH said
Oh no, Rosemary just went to the left side of the boat to check the destination. Left part of the boat is broken. What should the Dolphin Rescue Team do?

Philip Markoff seemed to have a good life: The handsome, clean-cut, 23-year-old medical student was planning a lavish beachfront wedding this summer to a beautiful woman.
But authorities say his computer and surveillance video paint a picture of a suspected serial criminal who targeted women offering erotic services through Craigslist. Now he's accused of killing one and suspected of robbing and tying up another. And police have said there could be more victims.
"This was a brutal, vicious crime - savage, and it shows Philip Markoff is a man who is willing to take advantage of women, to hurt them, to beat them, to rob them," District Attorney Daniel Conley said. "He probably thought he was going to get away with it. He thought he was too smart for us."
Authorities refused to comment on reports that Markoff might have been seeking money to pay gambling debts, but a Connecticut casino confirmed it was cooperating in the investigation.
Markoff, a second-year medical student at Boston University, appeared in court on Tuesday on charges including murder, kidnapping and armed robbery. Dressed in a wrinkled button-down shirt and khakis, he said nothing during the brief hearing and was jailed without bail.
Defence attorney John Salsberg said later that Markoff is not guilty of the charges and "has his family's support."
Markoff is accused in the death of Julissa Brisman of New York City, who was found dead April 14 in a Boston hotel after being struck in the head and shot three times.
Brisman, 26, was an aspiring model and actress who had advertised erotic massage on Craigslist. Authorities said she and Markoff communicated through email and cell phone to set up a meeting.
Investigators traced an email to Markoff, who created a new address the day before Brisman's body was discovered at the Marriott Copley Hotel. He was arrested Monday in Walpole, less than 20 miles southwest of Boston, as he drove with his fiancee to Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut.
Authorities say he was the man seen on surveillance video near where Brisman was found and where a woman was robbed in Rhode Island.
Boston police refused to comment on reports citing unidentified law enforcement sources that Markoff was a problem gambler. But the casino said it was helping investigators.
"We do not release information publicly concerning individual patrons; however, we are aware of this situation and are cooperating with the appropriate law enforcement authorities," the casino and the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation said in a statement.
Markoff's grandfather, Jerome Markoff said he was shocked.
"This is not my grandson. I know my grandson," he told The Boston Globe. "I hate to see a rush to judgment ... He's a wonderful boy, just absolutely wonderful, and couldn't be better. I'm proud of him and proud of his abilities as a medical student. He always wanted to be a doctor."
Markoff's grandfather did not immediately respond to a call from The Associated Press. Police said his grandson has no prior criminal record.
Markoff is also suspected in the attempted robbery Thursday in Rhode Island, of a stripper who had posted an ad on Craigslist. She was held at gunpoint before her husband entered the room and her attacker fled.
Markoff's mother, Susan Haynes, declined to comment through a receptionist at her apartment complex in Sherrill, New York, where Markoff went to high school. In the 2004 Vernon-Verona-Sherrill High School yearbook, Markoff was listed as a member of the bowling and golf teams, the National Honor Society, history club and youth court.
He graduated in 2007 from the State University of New York at Albany. Later that year, he had a broad smile in a photograph taken as he put on a "white coat" at a ceremony for incoming BU medical school students.
The university has said Markoff was suspended immediately following his arrest.
Police say they found a semiautomatic weapon, duct tape and restraints - what prosecutors called "critical, powerful" evidence - in the upscale apartment he shared with his fiance in Quincy, about 10 miles (16 kilometers) south of Boston.
According to the couple's website, Markoff and his fiance met in 2005 while volunteering at a medical center near SUNY Albany, and they were engaged in May 2008. They had planned to marry Aug. 14 on a beach at sunset in Long Branch, New Jersey.
Conley, the district attorney, said he believes Markoff's original motive was robbery, but he wound up killing Brisman when she fought back.
Prosecutor Jennifer Hickman said in court that Brisman had been bashed in the head and shot three times at close range, including once through the heart.
"It's hard for me to get into his mind. The evidence that we have is Julissa put up a pretty tough struggle, and it's in the context of that struggle that she lost her life," Conley said.
The slain woman's father, Hector Brisman, appeared in court but left without commenting.
Hickman said Markoff also contacted the woman he allegedly robbed using Craigslist on April 10 and set up a meeting after midnight. The woman told investigators she met Markoff and then let him into her room at the Westin Copley in Boston. When she shut the door and turned around, he was pointing a gun at her stomach. He bound her hands and mouth.
He then stole more than $800 and personal items, Hickman said.
His fiance, Megan McAllister, insists police have the wrong man.
"He could not hurt a fly," McAllister said in an email to ABC's "Good Morning America. "All I have to say is Philip is a beautiful person, inside and out."
An email message sent to McAllister via her Facebook page was not immediately returned Tuesday. The McAllister family did not answer the door of their Little Silver, New Jersey, home Tuesday. Shortly after, a police officer emerged and said the family did not wish to speak with reporters.

US STOCKS-Optimism about economy sends stocks to multiyear highs
* China, German trade data signal growth in demand
* Narrower U.S. trade deficit should boost GDP
* Shares of LinkedIn surge on earnings, outlook
* Indexes up: Dow 0.4 pct; S&P 500 0.6 pct; Nasdaq 0.9 pct
By Caroline Valetkevitch
NEW YORK, Feb 8 (Reuters) - The Nasdaq composite stock index closed at a 12-year high and the S&P 500 index at a five-year high after stronger U.S. and international trade data improved the outlook for economic growth.
The S&P 500 also posted a sixth straight week of gains for the first time since August.
Data showed Chinese exports grew more than expected, while another report showed the U.S. trade deficit had narrowed in December, indicating the U.S. economy strengthened in the fourth quarter.
"That may have sent a ray of optimism," said Fred Dickson, chief market strategist at D.A. Davidson & Co in Lake Oswego, Oregon. Continued...

Don't try to hang your heart by the window
You will only attract flies
A little closer
A little colder
And I will sing you a lullaby
Misery has bled you so slow
You are one step from the kill
They will take
They will break you
They will bend you to their will
Everybody needs a place to run to
You are just a sanctuary
Everybody needs a place to hide in
You are just a body bag

Yesterday I discovered a new (for my garden)color of columbine growing
behind some other plants...a beautiful lavender color. All my others are
peachy-orange colored. A kindly bird must have seeded it there...I'm so
happy...I just love this plant. I bought a deeper purple one last week
and it is doing well. Now if I could just find a pink one somewhere, I'd
be real happy! Oh, well, I noticed on the way to work tonight that there
is another garage sale type plant sale Friday and Saturday...proceeds go
to charity so I guess I'm just going to have to go so I can be a
charitable world citizen. Tough work but someone has to do it!

EmpireAntiques.eu is the worldwide agent for the sale of handmade Empire antique replicas, these artworks are manufactured by European artists and craftsmen, our head office and showroom is located in Belgium.
The team of EmpireAntiques.eu is always travelling around the world to find new models to have a wide range of items and to make exclusive masterpieces. We also had the opportunity to produce reproductions of famous models out of several museums such as the Hermitage at St-Petersburg and several museums in France.
The entire process starts at foundry. There are two methods to prepare a piece, by sand and the lost wax method. The EmpireAntiques.eu team only works with the lost wax method, this is the most complicated method but the result is outstanding!!! This process takes couple of days and starts with a silicone form, which is filled by hot wax. When the wax sets the piece is taken out, and its then set on a special stand. This stand will be treated by ceramics. Forms prepared in such way are put in special basins, and then the wax is melted away. This is how the ceramics forms are prepared, which are then heated in special ovens. Then they are filled with bronce, prepared daily according to special proportions. All highly skilled employees take special care to work according with the rules, so that the quality of the product is flawless. When the metal sets, the ceramic forms are broken away, until an element is ready for further preparation.
Finishing is made by chiselers and their helpers, who are doing everything by hand. The helpers work with the metal using the sand paper, buffer and other tools. The element is then chiselled by specialists with cold chisels. They are special cold chisels finished with various designs, which chiselers make themselves through their professional life. Some have collections of several hundred pieces. Sometimes, to chisel an element they have to use several designs. After the chiselling is finished, the piece is then put together again and given back to the chiselers, who fix all flaws appearing after the assembly. After this process the piece is put apart again by our team and then the brass elements are send to Paris. There the pieces are burnished and gilded by specialists with 24 carat gold. Some elements are oxidized with different acids to get different colors, from green to brown and black patina.
After the gilding and before final assembly each element is old aged. This means that, by running an agate stone along the surface it gives it special shine. These smooth areas right next to the matt finish give great effect of breaking and reflecting light. Before final assembly every piece gets another quality check. Then the final assembly takes place, all the products will be assembled by old screws and everything is connected the antique way.
We have also a department that is only specialised in clocks. This team is always searching for first Empire movements to put into the replicas. Before they put the movement into the clock it gets a complete check-up. So al our reproduction clocks are completed with first Empire movements.
In the range of our products there are various goods made from malachite, lapis lazuli, red porphyry and marble.
They are being manufactured in the following way:
blocks of stone (e.g. Malachite) are cut onto thin tiles (0,08-1 inch thick) tiles are arranged on the surface of furniture (e.g. Marble table top) in the form of so called "Russian Mosaic" their natural texture is being used for composing different patterns such as circles, "butterflies" etc. Veneered goods are manually finished off and polished to achieve effect making final products similar to exhibits from the Hermitage Gallery of Saint Petersburg (Russia).
The pieces leaving the EmpireAntiques.eu plant are high quality candelabras, tables, vases, chandeliers, sconces, clocks and other decorative objects made of guilt and oxidize brass combined with marble and precious stones.
The EmpireAntiques.eu team is able to produce anything from an original piece, from a picture or even from a good drawing.
We will be pleased to advise and help you

|Trying to get rid of makefiles
|Wed, 23 Jul 2003 23:01:31 GMT
Hi all, I work in a company that has a long history using makefiles. Since I joined it, I proposed to migrate to Ant. Some people resist to changes, some people agree, as long as all benefits provided by the makefiles are covered by Ant. I've already reproduced all behaviors but one: currently, all java classes names are declared explicitly in the makefile, and sent to the java compiler. It rebuilds all the class files, at each build. They want this behavior in order to detect broken code, due to changes on a base class, for example. The problem is that Ant, specifically the <javac> task, only recompiles ".class" if the timestamp differs from the related ".java" file. I've read on documentation that to detect this kind of broken dependencies, you should perform "clean builds" from time to time. I proposed this solution, but it wasn't accepted. They think it's a loss of time (even if it's ridiculous) to delete all ".class" files before calling the compiler. If I'm not able to reproduce this behavior with Ant, they prefer to keep the makefiles. Does anyone have any idea of how I could reproduce this behavior using Ant? Any other possible solution? Thanks in advance, Leonardo Barros --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com

The U.S. lost manufacturing jobs in May, even as overall employment rose. That calls into question President Barack Obama's promised "manufacturing renaissance"—and raises the question whether the president will press Chinese President Xi Jinping about trade issues when the leaders meet in California today and Saturday.
Overall, the Bureau of Labor Statistics' jobs report was respectable, if not great, considering the impact of January tax increases and the automatic spending cuts that began in March. Payrolls rose by 175,000, just slightly more than the 163,000 median prediction of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. The unemployment rate edged up to 7.6 percent, from 7.5 percent, but that was because of a flood of new entrants into the labor force—a sign of confidence in the economy.
For blue-collar workers thrown off of the production line, though, the news was bad. Manufacturing employment fell 8,000, following declines of 9,000 in April and 4,000 in March. Those aren't big declines for a sector that employs 12 million people, but the Obama administration has been touting an increase in employment, not decreases. The unemployment rate in manufacturing is slightly below the overall rate at 6.8 percent, but that's because many former factory workers have drifted into other fields or given up looking for work and are thus not counted among the unemployed.
The meeting at the Sunnylands estate between Obama and Xi is billed as a friendly get-to-know-you session. Alan Tonelson, a research fellow at the U.S. Business & Industry Council, which represents manufacturers, says that Obama should instead take the opportunity to press Xi to stop export subsidies and discouragement of imports from the U.S. "This is a mistake that American presidents have been making since World War II, when Franklin Roosevelt thought he could charm the pants off Joseph Stalin," Tonelson says.
Administration officials, aware of fears that Obama will be soft on China, say they're willing to play hardball when necessary. A senior administration official told reporters on June 4, "We've brought cases at the WTO at a greater pace than any previous administration, and we won those cases in terms of sticking up for U.S. businesses. So we have demonstrated that when we believe that we're not making progress simply through dialogue, we're willing to use the measures available to us within the international system to elevate those concerns."
Meanwhile, the government is pressing forward on efforts to rejuvenate the U.S. manufacturing sector. In May, following up on a commitment in the State of the Union address, the White House announced competitions to establish three manufacturing innovation institutes.
The monthly jobs report showed that May job gains came in professional and business services (57,000), food services and drinking places (38,000), retail trade (28,000), and health care (11,000). Manufacturing wasn't the only sector in the red: Federal government employment fell 14,000 as the automatic spending cuts of sequestration began to bite.
Economists said the lukewarm report probably did little to affect when the Federal Reserve might begin to taper its purchases of bonds, which it's buying to hold down long-term interest rates.
The Economic Policy Institute, which advocates stronger efforts to increase employment, said in a statement that "at this pace, it will take more than six years to get back to the pre-recession unemployment rate."

Murray multi-tasking with eye on London and Ghent
LONDON (Reuters) - Andy Murray is performing a delicate balancing act as he prepares for a claycourt Davis Cup final and the ATP World Tour Finals on an indoor hardcourt at the o2 Arena.
The Scot, who has prioritized helping Britain win the Davis Cup for the first time since 1936 when they face Belgium in Ghent later this month, will spend most of this week practicing on clay in London.
The Tour Finals, where Murray can clinch the year-end number two ranking for the first time, begin on Sunday, meaning a testing few days for the 28-year-old.
The transition to the specific movements of claycourt tennis have proved problematic in the past for Murray who has often suffered back pain as a consequence.
"I've tried to juggle the two so that I don't have to miss the (Tour Finals) but also give myself a good chance of playing well in the Davis Cup," said Murray who was beaten in the Paris Masters final on Sunday by Novak Djokovic.
"It's important I'm not too hard on myself and don't just expect to play great tennis at the start at the o2 as soon as I switch back to hardcourts.
"I need to respect what the change to the clay can do to my body and also what it can do to your game because it's a completely different movement."
When Britain beat Australia in September to reach the final for the first time since 1978, Murray winning all his three matches, the Scot indicated he might miss the ATP finale that features the world's top eight players.
He now says he could still pull out if he is worried about his fitness for the Davis Cup final that starts on Nov. 27. Continued...

Obviously, I'm pretty new to the world of blogging. I started this blog so I could have a place to ramble on about my thoughts and opinions…of which I have many. It was something I did for myself and I really wasn't sure if anyone would ever read it…especially since I've hardly told anyone about it. For reasons that are complicated and possibly nuts, I'm not necessarily comfortable having my friends and family reading it, so I've only told my best friend and my sister-in-law. So I never really expected huge readership.
I did tell one other person about it. After my first few posts, I sent my link over to one of my favorite bloggers…Salt over at Salt Says. She was amazingly supportive and helpful to me in getting this blog started and she faithfully visits me daily and comments on all my posts. She's awesome and advise anyone who hasn't to go read her blog immediately. Or, well, immediately afer reading mine!
Ok, so I was off yesterday and out running errands and then later had my brother and sister-in-law over for some dinner and financial planning (they want to buy a house…we were making a plan). I barely got onto my computer the entire day. But I did notice a ton of emails on my crackberry and was happy, yet confused, to see so that several were alerting me to new comments on my blog.
When I was finally able to get online last night, I headed over to visit Salt and I understood why so many people were coming to visit me…because she sent them, of course! She so kindly bestowed upon me my first blog award:
I'm so thrilled that she felt that my little infant blog was deserving of such an honor!
So the rules are that I have to tell you seven interesting things about myself and then pass this award along to someone else I think is a beautiful blogger. I promise to try to make these as interesting as possible:
- Despite the fact that I am NOT a runner, in 2007 I ran a half marathon. I did it with the support of Team in Training and to raise money for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society. I had watched a friend go from being to weak to get out of bed during her chemo to running a marathon in less than a year and decided that my lazy ass had no more excuses. I haven't run since that day, but it was a great experience.
- I find it fascinating when my dogs dream. They will be laying all peaceful and still one minute and the next they will be running or wagging their tales. I always wonder if they are dreaming about playing with their toys or chasing squirrels.
- I have a tatoo, which I got at 17, after watching my mother get one. It was a total mother-daughter bonding moment. I only still have the one…she's up to three.
- When I was 22 I had a brief but torrid affair with my boss, who was 39. Well, technically it was just after I stopped working for him. It's a LONG story, but basically, he had just gotten divorced and I had just gotten dumped and it just happened. Small company, huge scandal. Maybe someday I'll tell you all the details.
- I spent a night sleeping on the sidewalk outside the Tower Records on West 4th Street in NYC. They were giving away Bob Dylan tickets. My best friend and I took blankets and our neighbor, Brandon, who was supposed to be our protection. We all fell asleep and we woke up to some random homeless guy trying to kiss my BF. Our protector was sound asleep and didn't even wake up in the ensuing commotion – so much help he was!
- I am a concert junkie and I've been to too many to count. My first concert was New Kids on the Block with Tiffany. My favorite band to see is Barenaked Ladies. I'm hoping the rumors I've heard about a Rolling Stones tour in the summer are true – I've never gotten to see them live.
- I have a horrible singing voice, but when I'm alone in the car I sing, really loudly. I always wonder what other drivers think when they see me driving alone and singing away!
So now you all know just a little more about me. I'm going to pass this awesome award along to Krysten at After "I Do' because her blog makes me smile, she has an adorable dog and she felt the same way about her husband as I felt about J the other night and that made me feel less homicidal and crazy.
One more thing…since Salt is so awesome, she also gave me a second award, which is one that she just created:
I'm supposed to pass it along to other ladies with awesome blogs. However, Salt already bestowed it upon everyone I would have given it to. So I'm going to hang on to it for a bit and bring it out a little later.
J, in one of his more awesome moments, gifted me with a spa day for Christmas this year. So I'm off to Elizabeth Arden to be pampered and beautified. I hope you all have a fabulous day!
