Ronnie Faisst is faith, ambition and innovation. His journey to the
top of the freestyle motocross world began in Mays Landing, New Jersey.
Faisst grew up riding with a boyhood friend at the age of eight and
quickly fell in love with the freedom he experienced when riding a
motorcycle. Taking a gamble on making his passion a career, Faisst went
pro at the age of 18, racing the 125 Outdoor Nationals and East Coast
Supercross Series. His passion fueled his desire to succeed as it still
does today.
Two years later Faisst would make another bold move as he relocated
to southern California, the mecca of the motocross community. It was
here that he began building relationships with industry giants and
filmmakers and began laying the groundwork for what would become one of
the biggest action sports of all time, freestyle motocross.
Faisst spent his days riding in the hills with other FMX OG's like
friend and mentor Brian Deegan, Carey Hart and the Godfather of
freestyle motocross, Mike Metzger. Freestyle then was not the freestyle
of today. There were no ramps, just sketchy dirt hits that someone had
to man up and hit first. They paid their dues but that is what sets
them apart from so many of the modern freestyle riders of today. Ronnie
Faisst is one of the true founding fathers of the sport.
1998 would bring Faisst to Las Vegas, Nevada for the first of its
kind FMX contest and land him a spot on the Vans Warped tour riding
demos across the country. With momentum building, Faisst landed a few
crucial sponsors as the sport went mainstream in 1999. That same year,
the world was introduced to the Metal Mulisha, the first of its kind FMX
team with Faisst in the mix as one of the top riders. To date the
Metal Mulisha is the most medaled team of riders in the history of the
Faisst was thrust into the spotlight on such notable stages as the X
Games and Gravity Games when he earned a sliver medal at the 1999
Gravity Games. As the sport continued to grow, so did his popularity,
not to mention his skill on a dirtbike. He would go on to win two more
bronze medals at the 2002 and 2004 Gravity Games as well as a bronze
medal at the 2006 Winter X Games.
Summer X has become the premier stage for the biggest names in the
sport and Faisst has had tremendous success over the years placing top
ten in every event he's competed in since 2000. One of his greatest
accomplishments came at the 2008 X Games where after three failed
attempts resulting in a fracture wrist, separated shoulder, broken foot
and concussion, he was able to cleanly land a 360 as the 5th person in X
Games history to do so. Landing it was monumental as the trick had
escaped him the two previous years. Fast forward to 2010 after
recovering from ACL surgery on his right knee, Faisst would claim the
bronze medal in speed and style, edging out last years gold medal winner
in his first of three heat races. On to 2011 Faisst would take a major
crash at the Ontario, Ca stop of the Nuclear Cowboyz Tour and suffer a
broken femur. Surprisingly after being off the bike for four months
Faisst showed up at X Games and would take home another bronze medal in
speed and style and back it up for another one in 2012. In 2013 Faisst
unfortunately suffered another major injury training for X Games
Germany. Just two days before he would fly out he tore is ACL in his
left knee and was forced into getting the replacement surgery. Since
then he has made a full recovery.
2014 Faisst wrapped up a solid 16 week tour with the Nuclear Cowboyz.
He then would go on to compete in Austin, TX for X Games 19. After
that Faisst would begin a new journey in his career. He began racing
off-road trucks in the Pro Lite class at the Lucas Oil Off Road Regional
Series. Be sure to look for the #26 truck at the nationals series here
in the future.
Outside of the contest role, Faisst has played a major part in nearly
every action sports tour to span the globe. Three years in Tony Hawk's
Boom Boom Huck Jam tour, multiple Vans Warped Tours, MTV's Sports and
Music Festival, The Dew Tour, Crusty Demons of Dirt World Tour and most
recently five consecutive years on the Nuclear Cowboyz Tour.
Faisst being a vet to the freestyle motocross world has no plans of
retirement. He still has some two wheel goals he wants to meet plus has
added some four wheel goals to his list as well. He enthusiastic drive
to succeed places him on top with some of the best in action sports.
Always growing and setting new goals Faisst will always be seen as a
top competitor. Off the bike and out of the truck he is a full time
martial artist. A lover of music, art, fashion, and is one of the most
humble athletes I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Be sure to look
for him hanging off the bike or flying with four wheels.*Bio Courtesy of RonnieFaisst.com

Examples of high-end coachwork usually draw long, wistful stares and high levels of admiration, with skilled craftsmen taking something beautiful and creating something stunning. An Aston Martin DB4 is a wonderful machine, but a 1960 DB4 GT Zagato looks so good it'll melt your face clean off. Same with the James Glickenhaus-owned Ferrari Enzo that evolved into the P4/5. The examples of high style and peerless engineering are as numerous as they are arresting. And then this showed up in our inbox.
This is the Galatea (pronounced: Gal-ah-tay-ah) Revision, a custom coupe built upon none other than the – you guessed it – Hyundai Tiburon. Says Galatea:
While it's certainly not the worst custom Tiburon we've ever seen (you'll see far, far worse at any HIN show), it doesn't quite evoke the spirit of true coachbuilt styling. It's a body kit. An elaborate, ambitious and oddly proportioned body kit, but a body kit nonetheless. It seems strangely appropriate that Galatea has chosen this particular Hyundai coupe as a basis for the project, as the Tiburon itself was both widely criticised and lauded for deriving its styling from a much more exotic automobile – the Ferrari 456 GT."Unlike many kit cars that are based on a fairly old donor car, the Galatea is a comparatively modern car with modern features...The kit is available for $5,180 in fiberglass and includes all lights, hardware, emblems, and a detailed instruction book to make installation easier. The parts included are a new hood, fenders, front bumper, headlights, rear bumper, and taillights."
If you own a last-gen Tibby or just want to see it in person for yourself, the Revision will be making its debut at the Alpine Invitational Car Show and Concorso d'Eleganza on October 10 in Palisades, NY.

Just came back from 10 days at the Grand Palladium Riviera Resort & Spa for our 30th year Anniversary/ honeymoon.
Hola !!The best time we have ever had. We highly recommend it to all…A-plus
Summary of our trip (worth the read)
This is a very big resort and SO enjoyable and worth it.
There are an abundance of pools with many chairs or some Bali beds, restaurants, bars and shops you can never get bored. If you just want to relax enjoy the view of the ocean or lounge at the pool this is the place for you. There is an activity Schedule for each day that you really will have a problem choosing just one. You also get entertained when you walk around and see the small animal visitors that will put a smile on your face. We can enjoy many sunrises and sunsets overlooking the beauty of the ocean. There is so much to see and do that our 10 days definitely weren't long enough.
You can walk your heart content or take the train or golf cart they provide if you feel like being spoiled. The drivers do their best to get you exactly where you need to go and with a big smile too. Or if you want you can take a pontoon boat ride with Alfonso you will also get an extra smile and chat.
The food is great, whether you choose Italian, Mexican, Seafood, Mediterranean or just another type of tasty food you can have it in abundance in an ala carte restaurant or a buffet. We also enjoy a drink and the piano playing at the Hemingway Bar when we wanted a quiet moment.
The people were so friendly, helpful and kind. We felt like royalty.
We met so many that it was impossible to thanks everyone or get all the names of them but some that we did are: Bell hop (when we got there) Santiago, waiter at the Portofino Restaurant -Jose, Bamboo Restaurant -Yobany and Marcelino, La Adelita Restaurant -Victor, La Laguna Restaurant - Fransco and Chimal - to name just a few. We didn't get any of our housekeeper's names but when we saw them they all had smiles and "Hola!". We would sometimes get surprising towel origami presents when we got to our room. Our rooms were always clean and the bar stocked…what more could you want.
The waitress and waiters at the Buffets were too abundant to catch any names or the waitresses at the lobby bars who serve drinks while you enjoyed the warm Caribbean breeze and relaxed. There are so many people that made our trip enjoyable - all you had to do was look around and see all the hard worker and double or triple that for those who are behind the scenes.
If you want night time entertainment too, can go to one of the many shows they offer for free or enjoy the local group Con Classe who will entertain you into the night.
You can enjoy a Paella on the beach Sunday at lunch or spend the day at the Spa on the resort. Or just enjoy the moonlight at the Las Rocas Pool by the beach.
There are outside trips you can book through the hotel or just take a "collective" for $4 to town. We saw there was also golf, hobi cats, water sports, snorkelling and boating and many more things which we will try the next trip
So take your Bubba's, a good pair of walking shoes, you bathing suit and cover-up as well and light evening wear and enjoy to your hearts content. Take some extra tip money so you can show your appreciation to the staff because it is shared by all.
You will not want to leave. We didn't! We will be back…guaranteed !!

Far and away our favorite album by Phyllis Hyman – her first, and with lots of the same smooth jazzy soul touches you'd find in her work with Norman Connors! Phyllis is still as sophisticated as she is on later albums, but there's a bit freer style to the record – and Phyllis breaks a bit from her normally restrained classy sound, into one that opens up a bit more emotionally – really soaring out here in a way that's quite different than later hits, with a vibrancy that still makes this album our favorite Hyman effort after all these years. Arrangements are by Onaje Allen Gumbs and Jerry Peters – and the album features the sublime jazzy groover "Children Of The World", which would sound great next to any Roy Ayers cut of the time! Other tracks include "Loving You Losing You", "One Thing On My Mind", "No One Can Love You More" and "Beautiful Man Of Mine". (Includes insert.) © 1996-2017, Dusty Groove, Inc.

London, June 2 (ANI): Former Afghan Foreign Minister and now Leader of the Opposition in the Afghan Parliament, Absullah Absullah has said he will boycott the much-hyped "peace jirga" of over 1600 tribal chieftains.
Abdullah dismissed the event as a mere 'PR Exercise' and has vowed not to attend it.
Massive funds have gone into organising the jirga aimed at showcasing the government's ambitious plans, including the provision of jobs for reformed Taliban foot-soldiers.
It is set to take place at the same location as the previous Loya Jirga in 2002.
The new proposals are not likely to stir up much controversy, but the real bone of contention would be the negotiations with the Taliban militia and settlements with the insurgent chiefs.
The Taliban who have not been invited, described the meeting is a "phoney jirga" being organised to please foreign parties.
According to The Guardian, foreign officials say a broad national consensus is essential to avoid the perception that any peace deal is, in the words of one western diplomat, a "Pashtun to Pashtun stitch up".
The Pashtuns are Afghanistan's largest ethnic group that have traditionally held the most sway in Afghanistan and from which the Taliban draws much of its support.
The US embassy in Kabul said it supported a process that "seeks to bring back into society those who cease violence, break ties with al-Qaida ... and live under the Afghan constitution."
The 1,600 delegates include some 550 women, the number of which were increased after Hillary Clinton expressed concerns to Karzai that women risked being overlooked. (ANI)

Why are you not using Apple Pay?
Organization: Apple Inc.
Industry: Technology
CEO: Tim Cook
Web References: Wikipedia, Apple, CNET, SoundCloud, YouTube
Apple Pay is a convenient way to make payments at contactless points of sale and in iOS apps. It was originally announced in 2014 at the iPhone 6 event. This service allows your Apple device to communicate with POS system. The app uses a dedicated chip that stores Apple's Touch ID, Wallet as will as encrypted payment information. Using the Touch ID at the appropriate time when checking out. This helps to keep your payment information safe and private from the retailer using a dynamic security code that it creates for each transaction.
Some might wonder why the iPhone 5S will not work with Apple Pay, and the anwser is simple, your 5S does not have the SE chip to generate the randomized 16-didgit code needed to transmit you credit or debit card number. There is a full list of participating banks and store cards right on Apples website.
Now for the million dollar question, is Apple Pay secure? I would definitely say the answer to that is yes. Apple Pay will protect you card and personal information and does not collect any transaction data. Looking at the Apple Pay security and privacy overview on their website should help with any reservations you may have about using it. If you have an iPhone 6 or above, you are probably familiar with the Touch ID to make iTune purchases. Apple Pay uses the same process. In addition to the chip that stores the data on the secure element and it is never put on your phones software.
In these videos, you will see how easy it is to set up and pay for your retail and in-app purchases.
USA Today's Talking Tech discusses Apple Pay. Jefferson Graham, a Los Angeles based tech columnist for USA Today talks with Ed Baig, and American technology columnist and reviews the newest gadgets and tech. They talk about the reality of mobile payments being "the next best thing."
It is great if you are the type of person that runs out to get in line for the new iPhone every time on the first day it is released. I myself am holding on to my old dilapidated iPhone. I mean, I am still paying for this thing, so for now, this iPhone 5S in my pocket will have to do. I mean, like really? Can we afford to upgrade our phones every year to keep up with the ever changing technology? I know I can't unless 4XEM is going to increase my salary…by a lot!
Have Apples best days come and gone?
Organization Name: Apple
Industry: Multinational Technology Company
CEO: Tim Cook
Web references: Macrumors, youtube, Wikipedia, Apple, Bloomberg Technology, Statista,
Apple was founded by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne in 1976. They now develop and sell many consumer electronics including the iPhone, the iPad, the Mac computers, the iPod, and the Apple Watch. Being the world's largest information technology company by revenue and the largest publicly traded, they became the first U.S. company valued over $700 billion.
Source: Wikipedia
With 475 retail stores across 17 countries, and total revenues of $233 billion at the end of the 2015 fiscal year, there may be only one way to go…down! Lately, even the Apple faithfuls are ditching the iPhone. Apple has always enjoyed great customer loyalty with 68% of Apple sales coming from iPhone and according to a statista report the iPhone users are a loyal bunch.
In a small survey of 3000 smartphone users, 76% say they would upgrade from their iPhone to a newer model. That's an incredible 185 higher then Apple's closest competitor marking them as the smartphone giant!
After all the great Apple successes, why are so many loyal customers ditching their iPhones? This forecast for quarter 1 for 2016 is between $50 and $53 billion. This is the first quarterly drop since 2003.n Bloomberg's Scarlet Fu talks about these numbers.
Is the market saturated with Apple phones? Units sales are down by 10 million and with the iPhone making up well more then half of Apples total revenue. India Today Television talks about the iPhone's dip in sales.
So, to answer my question, Have Apple's best days come and gone? Apple CEO Tim Cook say's in a CNBC Mad Money interview,"i couldn't disagree more." "We've got great innovation in the pipeline. New iPhones that will incentivize you and other people that have iPhones today to upgrade to new iPhones.
We are going to give you things you can't live without that you just don't know you need today. That has always been the objective of Apple. To do things that really enrich people's lives. That you look back on and you wonder how did I live without this."
Jim Cramer from CNBC's Mad Money talks with Tim Cook on Optimism for the future!
It sounds like there may be some more "best days" coming for Apple!
Well this is going to cost us a small fortune!
Do you remember when I asked the question, what do you look for when buying earbuds? We are giving away 50 sets! The responses to our Facebook Ad was so incredible that we have been forced to expand the offer.
4XEM would like to thank you for participating in our ground breaking Facebook offer of a free set of our newly launched earbuds. These new earphones are the first samples of several earphone designs we plan to roll out over the next several months, and we are pleased that you took us up on our offer of for free earbuds.
However, we had not planned on the incredible response we would receive from our offer.
We originally limited the offer to the first 50 respondents. The excitement at our office relegated us to make a executive business decision that would benefit all respondents to our offer.
We simply decided to offer every single respondent to our offer a free set of earbuds.
Your free set of earbuds and thousands of others should begin shipping next week.
Is this a scam or does the offer come with a catch? Not a scam but there is a catch!
We simply would like you to complete a short survey of ten questions in relation to the quality, design and functionality of the earphones.
A link to a survey will be emailed to you soon after you have received the earphones. If you can't wait…here is the survey link.
4XEM would also request that you and share our offer with your friends and family. (I mean isn't that the least you could do?) Subsequent offers will only appear on our Facebook page. Did you know…you can now shop directly from our Facebook page? I know right, how cool is that!
Here is a glimpse of what we expect to offer over the coming months.
October– Free smartphones chargers

After a couple of weeks using windows 10, I have to say that I am not dissatisfied with it. Windows corporate vice president tweeted Tuesday that more then 75 million devices are already running Windows 10 in less than 1 month. I am sure that being a free upgrade sure does help.
Windows 10 is running in 192 countries and more than 90,000 unique PC or tablet models have upgraded to Windows 10 with 6x more app downloads per device than Windows 8.
Here is some nifty numbers posted by The Verge. http://www.theverge.com/2015/8/26/9209949/windows-10-75-million-machines
There are however, a couple issues that I have with Windows 10. Though they are not giant issues, they still get under my skin.
The largest pain for me is flipping between windows. Why can I not Alt/Tab once between 2 windows when they are the only 2 open?
I have to hold the Alt key and double click the Tab? This is driving me nuts, so if you have a better way…let me have it please.
Overall, I am happy with Windows 10 and very happy to have my start menu. If you are one of the people that are not happy with it…just get rid of it. You will have to do it within a month of upgrading or you will be stuck with it for ever.

What type of ear buds (in-ear headphones) are you looking for?
When people shop for in-ear headphones, what is it that makes them decide which ones to purchase? There are so many different styles to choose from that the average Joe has a tough decision to make.
There are many different brands, Beats by Dr. Dre, Skull Candy, Sony, Panasonic, Bose etc. What I would like to know is, what is the deciding factor to make the purchase? Is it solely based on sound , or looks, or both? You can spend anywhere from $5 for an entry level set to $250 for a set of Beats or Bose. I know myself, If I did break down and spend my car payment on a set of earbuds, they better be pretty sick and last me the rest of my natural life. The way I beat up headphones, they would have to be made from titanium, or some unknown metal from space.
Sure, beats newest earbud URBEATS, look really sexy,
but are they really worth 100 bucks? Maybe they are, but for myself, I'm looking for function and durability not looks. Will I notice the sound difference when I'm running at 6mph on the tread mill, or doing a vigorous High intensity spin class? OK, you got me…I am not going to do any vigorous high intensity spin classes in the near future but I do like to get on the treadmill once in a while for a nice jog. I may be biased when I say that I use a low cost, high quality in-earbud from our own 4XEM. They are keeping it real with low cost packaging and passing the savings on to the customer. The quality is everything I need and the sound is great with tons of bass. They are very soft, comfortable and deliver great sound and have a single button remote/microphone that is compatible with Apple®, BlackBerry®, Android™ and most media devices with a 3.5 mm jack. The best part is, if I happen to damage them because I fell asleep while binging on the latest Netflix series on my Ipad, I will not have to re-mortgage the house to get a replacement pair.
The 4XIBUDWH and the 4XIBUDBK are available from many of your favorite etailers and if you stay tuned…I hear that 4XEM may be giving several promotional sets away. Follow my blog to stay in the loop. The free earbuds are coming soon!

Within the instructional design process, the word "client" generally refers to the person or group for whom the instruction is being created.
Essentially, the client is closely tied to the need as well as the group for whom the training is being developed and has ownership of the need and/or group.
For example, the client could be:
It is important to understand what the client wants, as the client's satisfaction is an important goal of the instructional design process.
When working as an ID, it is important to have a good working relationship with the client. One of the first and most important steps in the instructional design process is often meeting with the client to discuss training needs.
The following questions are a good jumping-off point when first meeting with a client:

How to Achieve the Best Audio Experience
My sound system supports all audio formats and was curious which mix is the best quality/experience. When watching movies, I typically run DTS-HD MA.
- Default vs Dolby Digital 5.1 vs DTS Surround vs PCM 5.1. My reciever works with all these formats, but I am curious which mix is the best experience if you have a high end home theater speaker system.
- As for range, what is the difference between Default and Maximum. Is default the ideal range set by Naughty Dog? Or is it just a mid point between Maximum and Midnight?
- Center Speaker: What technically determines Small vs Large. For example, I set my center channel frequency to 120Hz if that means anything in this case.
I know audio can be subjective, but I prefer to use the highest possible quality settings and wanted to know what Naughty Dog recommends. Is default settings the best possible quality? Or is it an average setting that covers the average household speaker.
Re: How to Achieve the Best Audio Experience
I have a 7.1 system. I find that DTS 5.1, Small Center, and Default Dynamic Range are best. In terms of Dynamic Range, it is best to turn it off if you want the full range of sound from any particular audio encode.
Re: How to Achieve the Best Audio Experience[ Edited ]
Cambridge SoundWorks Ensemble II with both the Powered and Slave 12" sub-woofers. Center Channel is the Center Channel Plus. The surround and surround back speakers are the Surround 5.1 speakers from Cambridge SoundWorks as well. I got them all in 1997 or so, but they sound the same as the day I got them. The only speaker set to Large in our set up are the Front speakers.
Re: How to Achieve the Best Audio Experience
Using a 13 year old SONY 5.1 Out of a Box system, which has DTS. Sounds just great.
You should trust ther sound designers to have their audio tuned to be quite good on most systems at default settings. I do tend to turn up my subwoofer for scare based games. But there doesn't seem to be a need to change anything. There isn't a lot of "real world" noise. But you can find you may need to tweak voices/ambient. for example, old people like me have a haerd time hearing voices against rain/water, so in those early scenes I had to turn on subtitles...

Re: How to Achieve the Best Audio Experience[ Edited ]
Center speaker size. Large usually means it can handle below 80hz on the low end. Look up your speaker model to check. The dynamic range should not be default for best quality. You want full which might sound a bit more quiet but that means there is a bigger range between the softest sound and the loudest sound. Default might be like this. On scale of 1 to 10 with one being softest sound you might hear 4 through 10. Using anything other than full dynamic range is using an audio compressor to bring up the softer sounds. This is a slight dent in sound quality if you have good gear.
Sound format.
Very simple here. Dolby Digital and DTS are compressed audio formats meaning they are in a way like mp3 but multichannel. PCM is the sound unaltered and uncompressed and is the best quailtiy of the surround formats. Dts would be second and Dolby Digtal last as it has the lowest bitrate of the three.

The Fall by Braydon Friar
Book by: Braydon Friar
Status: Finished
Genre: Action and Adventure
Chapter1 (v.1) - The Fall by Braydon Friar
Smart Gurls
"Oh my gosh, I can't believe we're going to Costa Rica!" Said Douglas who was mocking one of the 7th grade girls just before the fall. "Well.. Well.. you shut up!" Yelled Brianna. "Gosh, I'm sick and tired of you girls, you guys probably distracted the pilot and made him crash the plane with your oh my gosh he's so cute... Yeah that was the cause because I was down the aisle quite a ways and you annoyed the heck out of me!" Yelled Douglas as he stormed off into the dark jungle while putting his hands into fist. "What's his problem?" Asked Zoey. "It's Douglas and when he's angry, he's angry," replied Ashley while trying to make her nails look better "Where's the other boys at?" Asked Morgan. "Out Collecting from the plane to get supplies." said Lyrica. "Well, why is Douglas not helping them?" Asked Izzy. "Well, he's the largest of all of us and the boys probably fear him," said Kylie "Makes sense, he could take anybody out," said Morgan. "Did you guys notice that the boys were willingly going to get supplies?" Asked Allison. "Yeah it's like they're... Wait! I know why, they want all the supplies for themselves." Replied Mickaila. "Well... We need to get those supplies back." Said Briana. "Yah! We know! How bout tonight, the boys will be all tired. Well get the supplies then and run into the jungle." Said Ashley while she did her hair. "It sounds like a good plan but won't it be dangerous, I mean do you think they'll put up a watch," said Lyrica while looking around wide eyed. "Well, we're smarter than them so we should be able to get the materials." Said Zoey acting all tough to impress the other girls. "Yeah, I guess." Said Macenzie shyly. "Good, so we better rest up, we got a raid tonight!" Yelled Ashley while fixing her clothes."and did you guys ever notice that I look totally cute while being all rugged up and stuff?" "Yeah... It makes you look a bad girl," replied Zoey
Mouse Gun?
"Okay guys, what we got in the stockpile from searching the plane is, some beef and thats probably too old. Some cereal, it's Trollios, some kind of off brand or something. Chocolate, for the fatties and me. A small gun, umm... What's it called... Oh yeah, its a mouse gun, and bottled water. Some jewelry wonder who brought that... And finally some ammo for the mouse gun." Said Trea. "Wow so to sum that up, all we got was a gun, crappy food, crappy water, and Ashley's jewelry." Said Derek. They heard cracking in the jungle and saw they saw Douglas pop out of the jungle looking very angry and he said "What did you guys find" Trea pointed to the pile of stuff. Douglas walked over to that pile and saw the mouse gun and ammo. He then said with a smile on his face," I'll be back just gotta run an errand just a little bit away". Douglas took it and started walking to the jungle and held the gun just above his shoulder. "Gosh wouldn't that be awesome if he has some music while walking away like, Duh...Duh, Duh, Duh...Duh, Duh, Dun... Duh!" Said Skyler. "No not at all," said Derek laughing. "Don't cha wonder what he's gonna do with it?" Asked Tyson. "Shoot Derek for making fun of my awesome song," said Skyler. Skyler then held out his fingers like a gun acted like he shot. Then they heard a Bam! Right After. "WOW! What was that?" Asked Johnathan. "I don't know, A GUN! Said Tyson. They heard twigs cracking in the field and saw Douglas walk back with a huge grin on his face and said "That should show them who's boss,"Douglas then put the gun in his pocket along with the ammo. "Sure... but don't you think thats a little intense?" Asked Johnny. "Ummmmm... Who has the gun and when did you get such a big vocabulary?" Asked Douglas. "You do, and yesterday, but why does that matter?" Said Johnny. "I have the gun, i could shoot you!" Yelled Douglas. "Yeah, like that small thing could do anything, its smaller than Thomas." Mocked Johnny. While Johnny said that Douglas raised and said calmly," One... Two... Three." In the blink of an eye Johnny ran as fast as he could into the jungle towards the girls.
"God dude... Do we have to get wood..." Complained Thomas. "Thomas, shut up, do you wanna die!" Said Braydon. "Well... I wanna live, but can't we do it without wood." Replied Thomas. "Thomas shut up, I wanna live with wood!" Yelled Kenny. "Well then get it yourself, cause i'm gonna go spy on the girls." Said Thomas with a smile on his face. He then walked off towards the woods. "Well when we run out of food, I know who we'll eat first." Said Derek. Tyson then replied with a smile, "Dude... Hes to small to eat as a main course, but maybe as a appetizer." Thomas then walked up of the woods and yelled," Shut up! Or i will nipple twist you all to death!" Thomas then walked back into the woods. Thomas then walked back to the boys camp and when he got there he saw someone stealing. "Stupid kids don't know that me, JOHNNY ODEll, is gonna be the one who lives in luxury," said Johnny. Johnny then took most of the food and ran up toward the center of the island to higher ground. 5 hours later Johnny got to the center of the island. "Guys, how much woods did we get?" Asked Skyler. "More than Thomas." Said Trea. "Yeah we wouldn't need a lot to get more than Thomas... Guys, where are most of the supplies!"Asked Tyson. "I don't know but maybe... Maybe.. ummmmm... Oh! It was the monkeys." Said Derek. "Shut up, was not the monkeys, it was Johnny because he was the only one who could've done it. The girls didn't know where the stash was and i saw him steal it." Said Thomas. "God! Why would he even do that!" Yelled Tyson. "I don't know," Said Braydon, "but I do know I'm gonna go build a hut." Braydon then walked off into the woods leaving the rest of the group. "Ahhh! What the! Give that back!" Yelled Douglas. "Get down! I said get down!" Yelled Derek. The rest of the boys turned around to face Derek holding the mouse gun at Douglas. "Derek you don't have to do that," said Trea calmly. Derek looked at Trea and yelled, "And what are you gonna do!" Trea looked at him with a pleading and then replied, "Derek please." Derek heard footsteps behind him and turned around and saw Douglas running at him. BAM! Dereks gun went off and Douglas dropped like a fly getting slapped and clutched his leg. "Derek what did you do!" Yelled Skyler. Derek looked at himself then Douglas and then the mouse gun. He then took off running into the woods.
Crazy Case
Derek ran from the group for quite awhile. Muttering to himself. He ran to the center of the island where the tallest mountain was. He got to the top after a couple of hours when the sun was just about to reach the horizon. Derek's eyes flicked around in every direction. Derek saw something at the corner of his eye. "Who's there?" Questioned Derek. The figure approached very slowly. Derek did not want to use the gun again but he had no choice. He lifted up the gun shaking. "Stop, I don't want to shoot you!" Yelled Derek. The figure kept approaching. Derek put the sights on the figure and closed his eyes. He then very slowly pulled the trigger. Without the adrenaline he had from the last shooting he felt the kick a lot. He regained himself from the kick and look to see the figure was still approaching him. "Bu..But... I.. I... Shot you?" Derek said. Derek looked to see what was behind him. A cliff. He then looked forward and the figure had disappeared. Derek looked confused and said to himself. "God, what was that!" Then Derek looked where he saw the figure and then looked at the cliff. He saw water at the bottom. He was turning around but before that he felt a hard shove on his back and he started falling. "AHHH!!!!" Derek Yelled. While Derek was falling he could make out the figure who pushed him. It was Johnny. "I'll get you, I'll survive this!" Yelled Derek. Right after Derek hit the water and a rock. He feels a sharp pain in his arm and blacked out.
Another One Bites the Dust
"Awwww, Gosh!" Yelled Douglas. "Douglas you alright?" Asked Tyson. "Yeah... I'm just totally fine... Of course i'm not fine. I got shot!" Yelled Douglas. "Okay sorry, well it looks like it went through. Which is good." Said Tyson. Douglas look relieved and said, "Okay good, can you get me some water." Tyson got up and started walking and said,
"Already on it." Tyson got to a stream and just thought about all the stuff that happened. The excitement of going to costa rica. Riding on the plane. Hearing the co pilot say that the pilot passed out and we were gonna crash. Hitting the ground was the worst part. It all happened too fast. Tyson collected the water and saw Trea and ran up to him and said, "Hey dude bring this to Douglas." Trea looked at the pale of water and said, "Okay." Trea then walked off. Tyson then walked to the plane. For some reason he just had to search the plane again. When Tyson got to the plane, he looked at the wreckage really closely. The 2nd half was barely punctured or anything. He walked into the 1st half. He went to the cockpit. He noticed a small trapdoor there. He walked up to it and opened it up and saw a ladder. He climbed that and could believe what the saw. Crates of ammo and guns. At first he thought it was terrorist that smuggled the guns but then he noticed some american guns. One caught his eye. The m24. He walked to it and lifted it up. It was really light. The stock and barrel seemed untouched. "God, this gun is perfect." Said Tyson it himself. Tyson heard a noise and quickly turned around and saw Ashley and she said. "OH! Look what we have here."
IS THis REal?
Swish... Swish... Swish... A figure rose out of the water line covered with algae and blood. He tried to stand up but fell. "Ow!" Yelled the figure. He then got his hands and knees and crawl out of the water.

Ron Paul Was Right
Tuesday, November 11, 2008 Posted by Shattered Paradigm
It looks like Ron Paul was right after all.
1) Ron Paul said that if we continued to run our economy on runaway government spending, endless amounts of debt and the insanity of letting the Federal Reserve control our currency then eventually the United States economy would crash.
Did that not happen?
But neither party is seeking to end this orgy of debt. Instead both parties pushed the "Wall Street bailout" and both parties want to spend even more money.
2) Ron Paul said that the United States cannot police the world. If we bomb countries, invade countries and torture everyone in sight then people around the world are going to hate America.
Did that not happen?
But neither party is seeking to end the wars. Instead Obama is promising to keep troops in Iraq for at least 18 more months, and he is promising to send a lot more troops to Afghanistan and he has talked about how we may need to send troops into Pakistan and Sudan.
3) Ron Paul said that if we passed the "Patriot Act" and these other fascist police state pieces of legislation that we would lose our individual liberties.
Did that not happen?
But neither party is taking any action to repeal the Patriot Act.
"The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is."
-Ronald Reagan (1975)
When will people start listening to Ron Paul?
Ron Paul recently appeared on FOX News with Neil Cavuto to discuss the latest bailout package.
The following are a few key quotes from that interview:
"When companies get too big and make mistakes they should fail."
"We're propping up all the bad mistakes."
"Governments can't make the correct decisions. They aren't smart enough."
"This whole idea that Washington are genuises… that they can do central economic planning. In this country we don't call it socialism we call it interventionism and a planned economy."
Below is the video of that interview:
But is anyone listening?
Obama and his advisors seem determined to take us even further down the road of big government, big spending, bailouts and socialism.
So is there any hope for the future?
What we could really use is a reformed Republican Party led by Ron Paul that would embrace a platform of smaller government, less taxation, abolishing the Federal Reserve, returning our individual freedoms and liberties and protecting our nation's borders and sovereignty.
Do things have to get even worse before America will listen to Ron Paul?
Posted below is an excerpt from Congressman Ron Paul's latest "weekly straight talk":
"We will face more tough economic problems during this new administration. In fact, the worst is yet to come. A vast amount of problematic mortgages have not begun to reset their variable interest rates and go into default. We already have unprecedented deficits, spending is out of control, and more big industries are coming to government with their hands out. My hope is that this administration will handle this economic crisis better than the interventionists and big government spenders of the 1930's, the bureaucrats that prolonged the Depression. I hope that new government programs and spiderwebs of red tape do not pop up to interfere with American productivity, and that we can quickly get our financial footing again. We have to understand that an economic correction needs to take place and the only way out of the coming recession is to go through it. Efforts to avoid it can only prolong it. I hope we can somehow find our way back to sound money and reject corporate cronyism".
If the American people will just wake up then perhaps the movement that Ron Paul has begun can give us hope for the future:

Television's Charlotte Dawson has been looking for love online, using a fake name.
The Kiwi-born presenter admitted being embarrassed by the revelation just as she launched the sixth series of Australia's Next Top Model but insisted that anonymous internet dating was "nothing to be ashamed about".
"It's not like I have committed a crime or anything," she told the Herald on Sunday last night. "I don't know how they found out but the paparazzi guys, someone obviously got a screen shot and they started shopping it round to the magazines. It was like, 'Omigod, she's on a dating website'."
Born in New Zealand, Dawson worked as a model before becoming a familiar face on television here and across the ditch. She returned to live in Auckland in 2002 and landed jobs including presenting TVNZ chat show How's Life? but soon left again, citing negative publicity from the media.
Dawson has been unlucky in love over the years. Her marriage to Olympic swimmer Scott Miller ended in divorce and in 2008 she broke up with live-in love Ed Harbour, a wealthy Australian businessman.
But last night, she said she'd met a new - and younger - man on the site. She and the tall, dark and handsome Sebastian arranged to have dinner at a restaurant, hit it off, and have since been dating.
And as to dating a younger man? "A leopard never changes her spots," she said.

The Enigmatic Fishman! Enter Paul!Mature
"AY! John wake up!!" someone screamed. Where am- Oh yeah...Freakin' Ricki. An alarm clock hit me in the head.
"What the hell man?!"
"C'mon wake up! Up! Up! Up! Up!!!!" he demanded. "I woke you up early so you could register for Foray." I rolled over and threw my pillow at him. He jumped on me. "GET UP!!!" Ricki zapped me with his finger.
"That frickin hurt!!" I screeched and threw him off.
"Are you awake yet?" he asked with an adorable smile that made him look like an innocent child. My heart melted then froze over.
"Yeah I'm up…" I mumbled and sat up. I stumbled into the bathroom with Ricki behind me. He started brushing his teeth while I started the shower. I undressed and got in. Ricki talked on while I lathered shampoo into my hair.
"You know you should cut your hair maybe it-"
"NO!" I glared at him.
"Sorry…" he mumbled while brushing his hair. I got out and dried up. I dressed into the school uniform. "Matches your hair," commented Ricki. I nodded.
"Yeah," I started packing. "Where do I register for Foray?"
"I'll give you the form at breakfast," he said while drying his hair. I noticed all his hair dye had come out. He had a blonde surfer hairstyle. Ricki straightened his tie and combed his hair. "C'mon let's go to breakfast." I followed him to the lunch room. Since, nobody else was up we got breakfast first. I got eggs and coffee while Ricki ate steak. He handed me the form which I filled out while eating.
"So who's this kid?" asked a short young man. He looked a bit younger than Ricki and older than me. He had long brown hair and light brown eyes. His lips were thin his eyes more narrow than most and his skin naturally tan. He ran his fingers through his hair and sat down.
"He's my roommate, he's gonna try out."
"Ah sweet man. I'm the Trickery member of the Foray team. The name's Swift McAfee of Celeritate," he shook my hand.
"John McPherey of Insulam Amisit," I said after swallowing.
"Do you got an element of any kind John?" asked Swift. I shook my head. He puffed his lips out in an impressed look and nodded. "You got guts kid. Being mortal and trying out for a sport involving having the shit beat out of you using fists, legs, and elements. I mean if you get thrown into the lava you could die and if Ricki shocks you its instant death." I stared with my stomach in my throat and my jaw on the ground.
"Jesus, Swift you scared him," said a young girl.
"Sierra don't say that name like that," warned Ricki. She rolled her eyes at him and sat down. She had long white dreadlocks that had the occasional bubblegum pink or cotton candy blue stripe. Three short horns grew out of the center of her head and two long curled horns grew out of the sides of her head above her ears. The ones on her forehead were purple, blue, and pink. The ram-like horns were white and covered in rings. Her lips were green along with her eyes and she wore blue eyeshadow. She had a viper bite piercing and a barbell.
"Chill out Ricki. By the way, the name's Sierra Diet of Greenhorn. You're a cute dude, John." She winked at me. I blushed, she was cute. She sat close to me making me blush. Sierra giggled. "So where's Jayson?" she asked Ricki.
"He's training somewhere," he replied. Then at that moment I saw the person who'll be my best friend and would change my life forever. I didn't expect him to be a six armed, gray skinned, mop topped, Fishman by the name of Paul. He skipped into the lunchroom with a crowd of girls and the occasional guy behind him. He sat down and raked his fingers into his blue hair. His face was dotted with freckles, thick framed black glasses were over his purple pupiless eyes and his straw colored scarf looked stuffy. He looked at me with half closed eyes and smiled. He winked at me. I looked down at the Foray form and filled it out. The morning announcements went off just after I got into my first hour. Paul sat next to me afterwards.
"Hi. I'm Paul."
"John," I mumbled trying not to look at him. He took my chin in his hand and made me look at him.
"You're so interesting. Trying to find your dad, when he made sure you have nothing to look for...except one hint." My eyes widened as he spoke. I shoved him into the handicapped stall of the bathroom and locked the door. I pushed him up against it.
"How do you know all this?" I asked. Paul let out a sigh of relief.
"Oh thank God! I thought you were going to rape me!" he laughed at my confused expression.
"No! I'm not gay," I mumbled.
"You sure? You're only thirteen, haven't even hit puberty yet. What if your sexual orientation changes? It's more likely due to a lack of a father figure." I punched him in the nuts. He squealed and fell over.
"Answer my fucking question you giant fish!"
"I just know!"
"I just do!" he stared at me with desperate eyes. "I have an abnormal ability of knowing without knowing. And I want to help you find your dad."
"Do you know where he's at?" I asked.
"Not exactly." We went back to class. After school I got the mail. I had already gotten a letter from The Geezer. It was a threat that if I didn't do my homework he'd burn my house down. I didn't actually think he was serious but I didn't want to chance it. I made popcorn and started work.
"Whatcha doin'?" asked Paul. I jumped. "Oh sorry."
"AH! You use popcorn to think too. Hey there's some woods in the back wanna go?"
"Not really my legal guardian sent me a death thr-"
"Let's just go!" he grabbed my arm and dragged me outside.
"Let's just go!!" he yelled dragging me deep into the forest.
"We're lost now you shit head!" I screamed at him. He shrugged.
"Psh it's fine." We both saw a light, Paul's eyes widened. "Oh lordy lord...I have never been so happy to be seduced." I looked at what Paul was looking at and saw my father.
"Dad?" I walked towards him. The closer I got the more my eyes closed. My lids grew heavier with each step. When I got to him, my eyes closed.

Our big announcement on the Trump-Russia scandal.
Elections (and baseball) stat guru Nate Silver kicked off a wide-ranging blogosphere discussion yesterday when he asked whether Republicans can sacrifice the Hispanic vote (presumably by stepping up anti-immigrant, anti-NAFTA rhetoric and bashing Sonia Sotomayor) and still win elections. He said "si pueden":
If you could gain ground in the Midwest or the South by pursing an anti-immigrant, anti-NAFTA, "America First" sort of platform, you really wouldn't be putting all that much at risk by losing further ground among Latinos. Yes, you could make life (much) harder for yourself if you screwed up Florida or put Arizona into play in the process, but it's not a bad strategy, all things considered.
About half the Hispanics in the United States reside in California or Texas, and another 20 percent are in New York, New Jersey or Illinois, none of which look to be competitive in 2012. (Yes, the Republicans could lose Texas, but probably only in a landslide). There just aren't that many Hispanic voters near the electoral tipping point.
On Friday, statistician Andrew Gelman advanced the discussion by analyzing the Latino vote's impact on President Barack Obama's election win. He says "the removal of the Hispanic vote wouldn't have changed the election outcome in any state." Check out the proof.

SESSION TYPE: Imaging Posters
PRESENTED ON: Wednesday, October 24, 2012 at 01:30 PM - 02:30 PM
PURPOSE: Acute dyspnea is a common symptom encountered by internal medicine house staff. It is traditionally assessed with the use of history, physical examination, chest x-ray, EKG and labs.Lung ultrasound is a rapid, non-invasive method which has been shown to be more sensitive and specific than chest radiograph for conditions causing dyspnea and is thus increasingly used to evaluate acute respiratory conditions (1) With lung ultrasound there is no time delay, which is inherent to standard radiographic techniques, and the physician applies the results with clinical knowledge of the patient (2). Our study assesses the capacity of medical residents to learn lung ultrasonography with minimal training and to apply these principles in the evaluation of acute dyspnea. .
METHODS: Six internal medicine residents completed a focused 1 hour training program and a training portfolio. This involved image documentation of 5 standardized images of A-line, B-lines, lung sliding, and pleural effusions using hand-carried lung ultrasounds. Residents performed lung ultrasounds on patients who were admitted to the MICU with acute dyspnea or developed unexplained acute dyspnea while in the MICU, were supervised by a principal investigator, and submitted interpretations using a standardized report form.
RESULTS: Internal Medicine house staff with limited training were able to identify 71.05% of A-lines, 83.33% of B-lines and 89.47% of lung sliding. In 94.73% of patients, lung ultrasound corroborated the clinical diagnosis. When the clinical impression changed after lung ultrasound it was due to a finding of a pleural effusion not seen on chest x-ray. The concordance of chest x-rays with lung ultrasounds was 63.15%
CONCLUSIONS: Internal medicine house staff with limited training were able to obtain findings concordant with a principal investigator's findings. Lung ultrasounds were highly concordant with clinical diagnosis among ICU patients with dyspnea, and in one case it was more accurate suggesting that ultrasound could replace more time-consuming and radiation-inducing radiography in patients with acute dyspnea. The less than expected concordance of chest x-rays with lung ultrasounds could be due to the non-specific findings reported by radiologists.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: With limited training, Internal Medicine house staff is able to obtain skills to perform lung ultrasonography to augment their physical exam findings, this can lead to higher diagnostic accuracy without the need for ancillary testing.

text: Moore Resevoir Moore Reservoir: Citing Concern Over Trout, Plan To Stock Walleye Rejected By Chris Jensen • Apr 19, 2016 After almost three years of study, Monday night fish and game officials from New Hampshire and Vermont said they will not go ahead with a controversial proposal to stock the Moore Reservoir in the North Country with walleye. The idea was scrapped over a concern that the walleye – which typically eat other fish – might hurt the trout population, not just in the reservoir, but in the Connecticut River downstream. Stocking the walleye was suggested by fish and game officials from both states. Live WW II Grenade Found And Detonated In North Country By Chris Jensen • Mar 25, 2012 Chris Jensen for NHPR A live World War II era hand grenade was found at the Moore Reservoir in Littleton Sunday. NHPR's Chris Jensen reports. The grenade was found by two men using a metal detector in an area that would normally have been under water. "They were very surprised. They were hoping to find, I think, a little bit more valuable item." That's Littleton police officer James Gardiner. "They told me they found a penny, an old New Hampshire token and then the grenade. They are done with today's metal detecting."

University of Chicago, Chicago, IL
INTRODUCTION:Atrial-esophageal fistula is a rare, life-threatening complication of percutaneous radiofrequency catheter ablation involving the left atrium. We report a case of occult atrial-esophageal fistula associated with the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome in a patient who underwent pulmonary vein isolation for atrial fibrillation.
CASE PRESENTATION:A 56 year old male presented with dyspnea on exertion, abdominal distension, and constipation for 5 days. His past medical history was significant for hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, hyperlipidemia, and atrial fibrillation. His mother had pulmonary fibrosis. He worked as a pipefitter for over 20 years. Ten months prior to admission, he was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter. This persisted despite two attempts of cardioversion and amiodarone treatment. Five days prior to admission, he underwent percutaneous caval-tricuspid isthmus ablation and pulmonary vein isolation for his atrial fibrillation/flutter. Post-procedure he noted worsening abdominal distension, nausea, and constipation. Over the next few days, he developed shortness of breath with walking. On initial examination, the patient had a temperature of 100.7o F, a blood pressure of 125/82, heart rate of 87, respiratory rate of 24, and was saturating 99% on 2L oxygen via nasal canula. Lung exam revealed crackles bilaterally. Abdominal exam showed mild distension, quiet bowel sounds, and heme positive stool. White blood cell count was 10.7K, with no left shift. Hemoglobin was 12.5 gm/dl. Chest radiograph showed the presence of bilateral alveolar infiltrates. Chest CT with 3D reconstruction showed patent pulmonary veins, the presence of diffuse interstitial and alveolar infiltrates, and no evidence of atrial wall defects. Trans-esophageal echocardiogram with Doppler flow studies showed patent pulmonary veins and the presence of right heart dysfunction. Upper GI endoscopy showed gastritis and no evidence of hemorrhage. The patient developed worsening hypoxemic respiratory failure and acute respiratory distress syndrome requiring mechanical ventilation and had recurrent melena. Parenchymal lung biopsy showed the presence of diffuse alveolar damage on a background of usual interstitial pneumonia. The patient ultimately succumbed to progressive ARDS. Autopsy showed the presence of a 2 cm × 1 cm defect in the anterior esophageal wall communicating with the left atrium.
DISCUSSIONS:Atrial-esophageal fistula is a rare and usually fatal complication of percutaneous radiofrequency catheter ablation involving the left atrium. The anterior esophageal wall is separated from the posterior wall of the left atrium only by the pericardial sac, and is susceptible to thermal injury and fistula formation from radiofrequency catheter ablation at this point. Initial symptoms often are non-specific. Injury to the vagus plexus lining the esophagus is associated with evidence of gastric hypomotility such as constipation and bloating. Clinical manifestations of fistula formation may include hematemesis or melena, systemic embolic disease (CVA, seizures, digital infarcts), malaise, leukocytosis, persistent fever, bacteremia, or endocarditis. Identification of this complication is difficult and requires a high index of suspicion, with most cases discovered at autopsy. While most reports have described the development of systemic inflammation and sepsis in association with atrial-esophageal fistulae, none have reported an association with the onset of ARDS.
CONCLUSION:Atrial-esophageal fistula is a known complication of radiofrequency ablation involving the left atrium. Presenting signs and symptoms may be subtle, and include gastrointestinal bleeding, systemic and CNS emboli, severe sepsis, and in this patient, the development of ARDS.
