Tabitha's single favorite form of writing is the blog post. She maintains several personal blogs on a variety of subjects. Paid projects span the range from profound to humorous and comprise such disparate topics as insurance, hair loss, bass fishing, garage door repair, fall fashions, Facebook graph search, responsive web design, optimizing offshore shipping costs, and customer loyalty.

Tabitha has been writing since childhood, but joined the professional writing world five years ago when she took a job writing for a small online copywriting company. She worked part time through college and then branched out, gaining experience with several online content providers (including WriterAccess).
While in college, Tabitha elected extra writing and linguistics courses (despite the heavy course requirements of her major) and maintained a 4.0 GPA in the field. In both her major areas of study, Music and Education, she gained experience writing scholarly and academic pieces. This helped her develop an extensive working knowledge of both APA and MLA format.
Since graduating with her Bachelor's degree Tabitha has been pursuing professional development as a writer. So far she has completed one graduate class in the area of writing, and plans to continue her studies in writing throughout graduate school.
Tabitha is a certified music teacher and gets excited about music very easily.

As a certified music teacher with a degree in music education, Tabitha has a lot of practical experience working with children in diverse circumstances. This is one of Tabitha's favorite industries to write for, and the one in which she has the most Exceeds ratings.
Her experience in the field includes not only teaching K-8th grade and working as a teacher's aide in preschool, but also freelance nannying as well as volunteering as a leader in Vacation Bible School, AWANA, and Truth Trackers programs for children. These volunteer experiences involved working closely with children (mostly elementary school aged children) while supervising their games and other activities, such as Bible verse recitation, song leading, and storytelling.

Other assorted volunteer experiences with kids include planning and executing community festivals and working in the church nursery.
During her college career, she took relevant coursework including Adolescent Psychology, Educational Psychology, Classroom Management, Elementary School Music, and other classes that really helped her learn how kids think and what makes their worlds go around. She puts this hard-won knowledge to practical use when writing about kids and family.
Her personal family experiences also make her an expert in this field: she grew up in a large family and was often required to help care for younger siblings, which means she's basically been training for her whole life to write in this industry.

As a music major Tabitha completed countless written assignments on dozens of musical and arts-related topics, which (driven by her misplaced but effective perfectionism) played a large part in her eventual summa cum laude graduation.

KNOWLEDGE of the response of materials to electromagnetic (EM) fields in the frequency range of radio frequency (RF) through terahertz (THz) is critical to numerous research projects and electronic product development activities. Electromagnetic waves in this high-frequency range achieve behaviors that low-frequency signals cannot achieve, such as the ability to travel through guided-wave structures, the ability to launch from antennas as propagating waves, the ability to carry broadband information over long distances, and the ability to propagate through materials. When applying high-frequency EM fields in scientific exploration and product development, researchers and engineers demand accurate material parameters in order to extract experimental results and to predict their products behavior[1-3].

Ukraine unrest overshadows Lviv 2022 Games bid
By Keith Weir
SOCHI, Russia (Reuters) - Ukraine's political turmoil undermined efforts on Sunday by former Olympic champion Sergei Bubka to promote a bid by its western city of Lviv to host the 2022 Winter Games.
Bubka, now president of Ukraine's Olympic Committee, said he was confident that his country could swiftly resolve the divisions that are tearing it apart.
"It's eight years before the 2022 Games will start, this will give a lot of time and opportunity to settle all the issues," he told reporters at the Winter Olympics in Sochi.
"I'm confident that through the Games, through sport, it will make our nation stronger," added the former pole vaulter.
However, time is not on the side of Lviv, a city that lies close to the border with Poland and was one of the venues for the Euro 2012 soccer tournament.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) will draw up a shortlist of candidates for 2022 in the next few months and the unrest makes it hard to see how Lviv will make the grade.
Should the IOC want to stage a Games in central Europe, it could choose the Polish city of Krakow which is also bidding.
The other countries that want to host the Games are Norwegian capital Oslo, Beijing and Kazakhstan's Almaty. Continued...

Don't worry about buying a fanny pack for those quick hikes away from camp either because the top pocket converts to a fanny pack. When you're ready for your trip and your pack is full, but you still have a few things to take, don't worry! The top of the Cascade extends with a spindrift collar, so you can over pack. The top pocket adjusts up and down to keep it in the correct position and we've included an Over the Top compression strap to stabilize your extra gear. There's also an included rain cover, stored in the bottom of the pack, so you're pack is ready for all kinds of weather. Once you try the Cascade, you won't settle for anything less.

Everyone knows that Ancient Egypt - with its squiggly hieroglyphics and tales of Tutankhamun - is by far the most fun thing you study at school. So what better way to inspire young Egyptologists than by taking them to the real thing?
Only a five-hour flight away, but feeling like another world, modern Cairo still feels atmospherically old. It's home to the monumental Pyramids of Giza - the only original of the Seven Wonders of the World still standing - where you can ride from the noseless Sphinx to the pyramids on camel-back. It's also home to the bustling bazaars of Khan el Khalili where kids can follow a treasure hunt: armed with a list of clues and an envelope of money, they must visit the vendors and get haggling!
Even the Egyptian Museum will keep children enthralled - inside lie 160,000 objects covering 5,000 years of history, including the ghoulish Mummies Room and the gleaming death mask of Tutankhamun, only 19 when he died. And when the city bustle gets too much, you can retreat to your hotel to wash off the day's dust with a dip in the pool.
The River Nile remains the lifeblood of Egypt...and sailing along it is the best way to understand what makes the country tick. As you glide by, you'll witness riverbank life little changed for millennia: ox carts, palm trees and magnificent monuments that are over 4,000 years old. There are lots of chances to hop off and explore with a private guide bringing all that history to life. Giant temples with intricate carvings still incomprehensibly stand after thousands of years in the sand. Tombs once piled high with untold treasure are still filled with bright hieroglyphics telling stories that Egyptologists will decipher. See mummified crocodiles at the Crocodile Museum at Kom Ombo and feel what it was like to be Howard Carter, discovering Tutankhamun's tomb for the first time at the Valley of the Kings.
Choose a boat like the Sanctuary Sun Boat IV and you can take in all the sites from the cool of the top-deck pool –a history lesson in your swimming togs, ice-cream in hand … now that's more like it!
The ultimate unwind after all this culture (and all those creepy mummies!) is a break on the blissful Red Sea. Fringed by coral reefs teeming with life –from turtles to clownfish –this is the place to jump in, whether you want to snorkel or try a scuba dive. With a number of excellent beach resorts offering all sorts of activities for kids –from beach games to scuba lessons –it's up to you how much (or how little!) you do. One thing's for sure, if Tutankhamun were still around, you can bet he'd be having a ball.
Did you know...
- The Egyptians invented toothpaste!
- Measuring 6,583km, the Nile is the world's longest river
- Ramses II ruled Egypt for 67 years, and built more statues and monuments than any other pharaoh
- The kings of Egypt spent most of their lives preparing for their death –the construction of a tomb or pyramid usually began as soon as they took the throne
- The Egyptian alphabet contained more than 700 hieroglyphs!
- Cats were considered sacred by the Ancient Egyptians –most families kept a cat as a pet, as they believed it brought good luck
The Boring Bit
- Airline routes –London Heathrow direct to Cairo
- Flying time –4+ hours (GMT+2 hours)
- Visas –Are required and can be bought on arrival
- Health considerations –Hepatitis A vaccine is recommended. Please consult your GP

Devin Benford - The 6-foot-4, 206-pound Skyline OLB was one of the players we really wanted to see perform, but a sore hamstring after his first 40-yard dash attempt was enough to have him shut it down for the day. Wyoming recently offered Benford a scholarship, and he told Scout.com that he believes Boise State and Washington could be close to offering. With the Broncos, Benford said the BSU coaches told him they've seen him film and they like what they've seen. They are going to get him to unofficially visit during their camp in a couple weeks. With the Huskies, Benford said he's been there a couple of times already and he's met the defensive coordinator (Justin Wilcox) and the Special Teams Coordinator (Johnny Nansen) and they told Benford they can't wait to have him back on campus to check things out again. "I just have a good feeling with them," he said. Benford, who is originally from Texas, is also hopeful to check out Georgia Tech, and he also plans on visiting Washington State, Oregon State and Colorado.
Bruce Jones - Jones was one of those players that kind of came out of nowhere to impress on the day. The 5-foot-11.5, 167-pound senior from Sunset High School in Portland is a rarity these days - he's actually too far ahead in school. He skipped the second grade entirely, which means he's going into his senior year as a 16-year old. It hasn't hurt him physically, as he still matched up well with all the top athletes on the day, working his way mostly as a cornerback. He also ran a 4.99 electronically-timed 40, one of just a handful of players to break the 5-second barrier on a cold, rainy day. Jones told Scout.com that Portland State and North Dakota are the schools that are showing him the most interest right now, and that he's going to PSU's camp on June 26th, as well as Oregon State's camp. He's also traveling out east with friend Jordan Morgan from Beaverton Southridge to attend Ohio State's camp.
Reuben Mwehla - Bellevue is known for two things; state titles and moving kids up to the next level. Reuben Mwehla is one of those Wolverines that you might lose track of when trying to figure out which running back has the ball, but in a combine setting he really shines. He ran a 4.92 electronically-timed 40, only a tenth off the fastest time of the day, and stood out as both a receiver and cornerback in the one-on-ones. Mwehla told Scout.com that Nevada and Idaho are showing the most interest, with Colorado talking to him a little bit too. He's planning on camping at California and Oregon State, and may also take part in the Barton Football's 7-7 Tournament in a few weeks. He'll also take part in the Eugene NFTC on June 10th.
Ryan Turman - Turman, a 5-foot-11, 195-pound receiver prospect from Interlake High School in Bellevue, favors Washington and Washington State over interest from Oregon State, UCLA and Portland State. He was supposed to visit UW's Peter Sirmon and Jimmie Dougherty Saturday, but track obligations kept them from their unofficial visit to Montlake. He plans on camping at Washington, Washington State, Oregon State and UCLA.
Trevor Barney - Barney tied for running the fastest 40 on the day - an electronically-timed 4.79 - with Skyline teammate Nic Sblendorio and Mt. Si's Tyler Button. Even though the 5-foot-8, 165-pound Barney is short on stature, the Spartan plays big, especially at receiver. The Ivy League is on him big-time, and he's going to be visiting Princeton, Harvard and Cornell this summer on unofficial visits, and he's going to sneak in a trip to Georgetown, another east coast school that is showing him interest.
Michael Cummings - Every camp there seems to be a player or two where you look at them and think they have to be getting all sorts of recruiting attention. For Cummings, a 6-foot, 230-pound linebacker from Meadowdale High School in Lynnwood, he was that guy on Sunday. Physically he passes the Look Test, and running around during 1-1's and 7-7's, you'd find it hard to believe he doesn't have any scholarship offers at all. "I'm just waiting for someone to tap my shoulder," Cummings told Scout.com after the camp on Sunday. He said he's gotten letters from Oregon and Missouri and that he talked to a Wyoming coach a couple of weeks ago, but nothing's on the table yet. To get the word out, he went to camp at Stanford last year and plans on going to camps at Oregon and Washington this summer, as well as the Barton Elite Camp at the end of June.

What About Those Who Have Never Heard (5 of 7) by Jeff Schreve
This content is part of a series.What About Those Who Have Never Heard (5 of 7)
Series: Now That's a Tough One: Answering the Difficult Questions of Life
Pastor Jeff Schreve
Romans 1:18-25
George was playing golf with a doctor friend of his. And he said to him, "Hey, doc. I think my wife is starting to lose her hearing." And he said, "Really?" He said, "Yeah, but, you know, she doesn't want to go to the doctor. She doesn't want to get checked out. And I really don't know what to do about it." He said, "Well, why don't you just test her hearing without her knowing about it." He said, "Well, how do you think I should do that?" He said, "Well, just come up behind her sometime when she can't see you and do a little test to see if she can hear you. Say something in a hushed tone to see if she can hear. And you can just kind of gauge it based on that." And he said, "Okay, I'll do it." So he gets home from playing golf. His wife was in the kitchen. She was making dinner. She was by the sink cutting some things up. And he said, "Well, here's a good opportunity." So he was at the doorway, and he said, "Honey, can you hear me?" Nothing! So he moves a little closer. He said, "Honey, can you hear me?" Nothing! He gets a little closer almost right up behind her. And he said, "Honey, can you hear me?" And she turns around and she said, "For the third time, yes!"
We're in a series on tough questions. And tonight, we want to ask this tough question. What about those who never heard?
Have you ever had the fear of witnessing to someone and thinking, That person might ask me about the pagan in the jungle in Africa somewhere? Lots of people have that fear. They say, "Oh, I don't know the answer to that question" if they ask me that question. I remember when I was in high school, actually, my senior year of high school, the summer of my senior year, before my freshman year in college. And I was working a job, and I was witnessing to this guy. And he asked me that question as he was kind of arguing where I ...

Book by: Leonidas9
Status: Finished
Genre: Science Fiction
Chapter1 (v.1) - HALO: REVALATION
There wasn't anything I could have done to change the past or the future, what was about to come. It had happened. The purpose in my life was gone now, nothing to live for. But in this exact moment, I didn't feel anything at all but I knew for some reason I was running, I was still trying, but I didn't know why. I don't know if it was my will to live or something else was carrying me today because I certainly didn't want to carry on. I heard the bombs dropping, the head rattling of the machine gun fire, and I heard the screams and saw the death of people that I cared most for, but still I kept running as if I had something to return to, something to accomplish, something that needed to be done. This moment in my life, this time, this space, this indescribable feat seemed surreal, But first let me tell you what was happening and how this happened from the beginning…
Well first I should probably introduce myself, my name is Leonidas and ya I had a history of war in my life. my father was a Spartan II, one of the most respected I might add, he taught me from a very young age how to fight, how to defend myself in the world. 'When the world gets tough you have to get tougher', that was his famous slogan that he always told me, whenever I felt down he said that and he'd give me a slap on the back. By the time I was seven I had started training for something my father wanted me to be, I didn't understand at the time, but knowing what it is now I wouldn't have wanted to do it, what it entailed, what kind of sacrifices you have to make. But I didn't know so I kept training without knowing what for. Of course my mother was against it. What mother would be for it, going into war that is. I didn't do anything wrong and neither did my father, we just wanted what was best for me. But neither of us knew what this would lead too…
By the time I was ten I had the military training of a marine, which was a pretty incredible feat taking into consideration that most Spartans have only been training for around 4 years and I was around a year ahead of training. My father was still good to us, he provided food and a home but he wasn't around much and he was getting more and more battle wounds from the insurrectionists but we just called them the rebels because that's all that I thought they were. When you were in battle you didn't even stop to consider that they're just as human as you are your just fighting for two different things that you both think are right, but that's my view on it.
I was getting to my late teens now, around sixteen or seventeen I almost stopped keeping count of my birthday then I had no need. I didn't have any friends my own age, didn't have a squad yet and my dad wouldn't let my socialization get in the way of my training. I didn't like it, but I guessed it was for the best, the only friend I actually had was another Spartan he went by the name Trigs cause he always seemed to have his finger on the trigger in battle. Being five years older than myself he already was assigned to a squad called Hell Raisers. They were a special type of Spartan squad not like the rest. They were more like ODST Spartans if there ever were any. They dropped down in the same pods but for missions and fast deployment not for strategy like the actual ODST's. They had a well put together group all of them Spartan II's so I knew that Trigs was in good hands. They had a sniper, a pilot, a strategist, a heavy arms specialist, a few other infantry units, and he was the squad leader.
I rarely got to see him because he was always on missions but he was the closest thing that I had to a friend in my childhood. I remember looking out my window to see his every mission launch that I could, whenever I looked up at his pod I knew he was looking back down at me. One day I remember sneaking out of my house to go see him at the bar it was after my curfew but it was after one of his three month missions so I couldn't miss seeing him. I wasn't old enough to get into the bar yet but he snuck me in through the bathroom window, he did stuff like that for me a lot. So when I got there we must have sat there and talked for hours it seemed, I kept asking stupid questions about his mission, but at the time I think he was too drunk to understand me or the answers that he was giving me back. Then out of nowhere I heard his head smack the table and he fell on the floor. So I got up and turned around and it was one of the top Spartans in our division most people called him BA for Bad Ass he was a Tank of a Spartan, nobody messed with him, he had most rebel kills out of anyone and he was very good at what he did, and that was kill. He stood a good half a foot taller than me at around 6'7", but for some reason I was so blinded by rage about what he did to Trigs that I almost didn't notice how much I was looking up at him when I turned around.
"What the hell was that for" I yelled in his face.
"That bastard stole my squads mission and this is how he celebrates after one of his missions by drinking his face off" said BA in a fit of rage.
I didn't have much to defend myself with. "Well why didn't you get the mission BA? Is it cause you're the general thought you were too big a baby to handle it? Cause that's what I hear" I said mockingly.
Something told me he didn't like my tone of voice when he threw that first punch. I had been punched before in training but never this hard, for a second after the punch I blacked out, but then came to when he was warming up for a second. I dodged to the right with his fist just missing my face again. I had the taste of my own blood in my mouth and a sharp pain coming from the right side of my face where I took the first blow. The third time he hit me in the stomach and knocked the wind out of me and I fell to the ground on my knees. Then I was just like a punching bad for him. I was taking blow after blow from him, left, right, left, right, every hit made me loose more and more consciousness. Then he stopped for some reason, but I didn't know why because I was so stunned I didn't know what was happening. Then I realized that Trigs had a magnum to his head.
"Put your fists away BA before someone gets hurt," Trigs said.
"C'mon Trigs shoot me I've got nothing to lose," BA said with a smirk.
"Don't do it Trigs he's just trying to pull on your strings, he's not worth it" I told him.
Trigs put the magnum away on his belt where it was in the first place, now all sobered up I might add. But that's what Trigs and I did, we looked out for each other, we were like the brothers we never had.
We had a favorite hang out spot when Trigs wasn't in battle. We called it our island sanctuary. it was out in the middle of a lake that was close to our homes. It was big enough to put a house on but they didn't want to put one there because of transporting issues. But we didn't care that was like a get away from everyday life, a nice break from my training and his mission work. A place where you could just 'be'. We would sit there for hours, usually at night because my father didn't let me out much during the day.
I remember one of his stories that he told me about one of the fire fights that he had been in, he said that it had lasted at least twelve hours. He said that the bullets just never stopped coming. Around ten hours into the battle he got hit in the right shoulder, he said that he killed around one hundred rebels that day but his squad got pinned down for that time. He said that they lost 3 of their Spartans that day, but of course they were all reported missing in action for moral purposes. But he got his shoulder all fixed up and they came back, but with three less men. He said he didn't really want to talk about it, and I could understand that so I backed off the subject.
We spent almost every moment together when he was there and when I wasn't still training. Training then was taking a lot out of me but I didn't know why, maybe my dad was pushing me a little harder or maybe I was coming to the end of my training.
Well, I was right. My dad said that I was at the end of my training, but there was only one thing that needed to be done. So the next day he took me into the training arena as usual, but then instead of going to the training room we went into a room that I hadn't noticed before, I guess because I had never needed to know what that room was for. When I stepped into the room in the center there was a table that my dad was standing beside.
"Alright you might not like the procedure that comes next, leo" my dad said with a low tone of voice.
"What is the procedure?" I asked.
"Well I hate to do this to my son, but only around 40% of Spartans who enter this procedure will be successful in the procedure." my dad said.
"What happens to the other 60%" I asked almost not wanting to know the answer.
"Well, around 75% are killed in the operation and 25% are crippled for life…"
When those words came out of his mouth I went into shock and I tried to run but I was blinded by the fact that I could die in the next two weeks without even being in battle. After a couple of seconds I had blacked out, and the last thing I remembered was a bright light in my face and a needle in my arm, then nothing…

After a Medical Error, Patients Could Become Hospital Insiders
Patients who have been harmed by medical errors, and their family members, could be recruited to hospital internal quality review proceedings and their suffering could be used to prevent future mistakes. It's a good idea with potentially disastrous side effects.
Hospital quality expert R. Adams Dudley, MD, was flapping his official UCSF identification badge that hung from a lanyard around his neck. He told the group at a recent patient safety meeting that when a hospital patient is harmed, "maybe they and their families should be given one of these."
The point he was trying to make was this:
It's not enough for healthcare providers to merely be honest and apologize when a patient suffers harm, a strategy slowly replacing the standard "deny-and-defend" practice that persists in most hospitals, he says.
And it's not enough to do the thorough root cause analysis, even offering compensation right away, which some organizations are starting to do to avoid litigation and help patients grapple with the tragedy.
They need to do more if they're truly serious about being honest and preventing errors going forward, and this is what Dudley thinks might be the next step to take.
"What if, when someone is harmed in our hospitals, we say not only, 'we're sorry you were harmed', but 'here's a badge. Now you're part of our team. Now, if you choose, you can be a patient advocate, come to our staff meetings, talk about what happened, [and] attend patient safety conferences. We'll e-mail you the meeting schedule.'"
We want you to help tell us how we can prevent this from happening to someone else, he says.

The world's oldest profession: chef
Cooking dates to almost 2 million years ago
By Rachel Ehrenberg, 17:21 PM August 22, 2011
Nearly 2 million years ago, it seems the original naked chef was cooking up a storm. Homo erectus, the extinct hominid that's a mere branch or so away from humans on the family tree, was the first to master cooking, new evidence suggests. This seminal event had huge implications for hominid evolution, giving the ancestors of modern humans time and energy for activities such as running, thinking deep thoughts and inventing things like the wheel and beer-can chicken.
"In the big picture, eati...

Red Pill Instinctive Drowning Video
We have the video for the amazing track by Red Pill for his track "Instinctive Drowning". The Red Pill Instinctive Drowning video has been uploaded to the Mello Music Group official YouTube page.
When talking about the single and video, Red Pill said he wanted to "play on this idea that depression and substance abuse isn't always easy to point out. Cries for help aren't always obvious." It's nice to know that listeners can still be challenged when listening to accessible music, which is one of the reasons why Red Pill has a lot of hype surrounding his music right now. The Red Pill Instinctive Drowning video is an excellent showcase of the artists work and what we can expect for future music.
The single is also the title track of the upcoming ten-track album by Red Pill which is available to download now. Please make sure you download the Red Pill Instinctive Drowning project from this iTunes link, which also features P.O.S from Doomtree on the track (fuck your ambition) which Hip-Hop Kings blogged earlier this year. I have posted the official track listing and artwork to Red Pill's latest album "Instinctive Drowning" here. Make sure you also watch the video below.

When speaking about the track, Ill Poetic says ""I love this song. It's a pretty huge experimental leap for me" and Hip-Hop Kings fans will agree that it's not the usual style from Po. However, the growth of an artist is something that I love to watch over time, and continue to support. Please give me and Ill Poetic feedback by joining us on Twitter (@HHKMag and @IllPoetic513). There are plans to release a video in the forthcoming weeks which we will be sharing as soon as it becomes available.

Ill Poetic – Fingertip (Audio)
We announced last week that Ill Poetic and Definition Music LLP had created a new platform in our written piece titled "Something Greater". To continue to celebrate the news, I wanted to share a new track from Ill Poetic called "Fingertip". Described as an "ethereal funk trip-hop track, mined from a lost Sade and Thom Yorke collaboration" the song is actually ten years old.
"I actually started working on this song almost 10 years ago for an unreleased instrumental album I'd made. About a year ago I revisited the piece and replayed some new drums and keys around it to liven it up. Then, last month I sung some light vocals on top as a finishing touch. I think the song is about detachment, but it could probably go a few different ways. Regardless, here we are with a free, new song,"Fingertip".
For those unfamiliar with Ill Poetic I would highly recommend searching the Hip-Hop Kings archives to view the previous music (or check out his bandcamp page) and sounds that create quite an excellent and extensive back catalogue. You can listen to Fingertip on the soundcloud player below.

The transition will provide a growing collective of artists an opportunity to showcase their music, art and film talents on a larger scale.

Ill Poetic – Main Street Mission
DOWNLOAD | Ill Poetic – Main Street Mission
I'm fortunate to speak with Ill Poetic who as an artist, and person never fails to impress me. His recent single "Main Street Mission" is the latest offering, with a nice story behind the reason of its existance.
My wife and I got in the habit of buying $5 gift cards to fast food spots and keeping them in the car to give to homeless people when we hit an intersection. With a $5 giftcard to Wendys, especially in this weather, you can get 2-5 meals which at least guarantees a warm place to hang out for as long as possible. Every time we do this, this "Main Street Mission" song I made a little while ago pops up in my head, so I figured now would be a good time to drop it. This isn't a corny "help the homeless" Will.I.am song. Just a reminder that it's cold as shit outside and some people have way more to worry about for the holidays than Black Friday sales.

Academically, Avery reports a GPA of approximately 3.7. He says he scored a 21 on the ACT, which he plans on retaking in June.
"I want go and get my score as high as I can get it, until I'm maxed out," he told The Bootleg in a Sunday night interview.
By committing so early to the Cardinal, Avery, the Ohio Cardinal Conference Offensive Player of the Year, has the chance to serve as another de facto recruiter for the Card. It's an opportunity players like Shayne Skov and Terrence Stephens employed to devastating effect last year.
"I talked to [linebacker Evan Palelei] from Las Vegas, before he committed, just about how great it was and that we were both going to commit," Avery said. "It's hard to get people around here interested in Stanford, but anyone I met on my visit and the people that are visiting, I'll be in their ear."
Avery's high school coach B.J. Payne specifically praised Avery's quickness, cutting ability and character in an earlier interview with Scout.com. Perhaps Payne should have mentioned confidence too, as Avery's final words to this reporter will likely bring a smile on the faces of the Cardinal faithful:
"We're on the rise," Avery promised. "We're going to be competing for Pac-10 Championships, and getting into bowl games and the BCS."
Without further ado then, here is the rest of the interview with Courtney Avery, in his own words:
On his Stanford visit:
"We flew out there Thursday night, and Thursday to Saturday, we were just busy, busy. We took a tour of the campus. It's just beautiful. It just blows your mind. The environment blows your mind.
Everyone is close-knit, like a family, which is kind of like my high school, where the athletes are cool with the students, the students are cool with everyone and everyone is cool with the teachers. That's what I liked about Stanford also.
On the coaches:
I committed when I sat down and talked to Coach Harbaugh. He was real encouraging on the practice field, real engaged and got the team riled up. I just saw how he treated players, like they were his own. That's how my coach is here. We have a great relationship. He treats me just like I'm one of his sons. I feel like Coach Harbaugh will do the same thing for me.
… Definitely, the coaching staff is like the staff I have here [at Lexington]. We can joke around, but then when it's time for X's and O's, you hit it hard and can be serious. You can't just be serious all the time, 24/7, so that really attracted me. It really reminded me of home, even though it's so far away.
On committing:
I told Coach Harbaugh, 'Today, I feel that everyone's a family here and close-knit, and the football program is definitely on the rise, and I want to be a part of it.' I told him I was verbally committing. He got a big smile and just jumped up and shook hands.
On what else he saw on his visit:
I stayed with Delano Howell. He was a great host. I can tell we're going to become great friends. We spent most of the day together. We went around, we ate and we just walked around campus. He was pretty popular there, talking to pretty much everyone who passed, whether they were a regular student, a swimmer or whoever. I really liked that all the students and athletes hung out together. The students were not jealous of the athletes. The athletes don't get special treatment. Everyone's just a student there. I really like that – the whole close-knit thing.
At night, we went out to [the row house] Bob, and got to meet a lot of other athletes and talk to girls and such. [Laughs.] With the schoolwork and the athletics, you need some social time too.
As TheBootleg.com hears the latest on Courtney Avery – and who some of his future teammates might be, we will report it here. Stay tuned!

Wait A Cotton Pickin' Minute!!!
I ran out, and bumped into a Company member. He snarled at me. I raised an eyebrow. Shade turned into a human behind him, and tapped him on the shoulder. It turned into a panther as he turned around, pinning him to the floor, then clawing a him. She threw him with her teeth as far as she could.
I looked around. The place was scattered with dead Company operatives. I saw Community people all smiling, but one face was absent from the crowd.
Jeremy had gone. I saw a figure on the room. I didn't think it was Jeremy. Would he truly leave us?The figure had gone. Now I knew it was Jeremy. I squeezed the salty bullets from my eyes, and pushed them away. I clenched my fists. A vision in my head appeared. It was Jeremy, holding me, and smiling. The image changed. There was no Jeremy. I remembered the diamond heart, still nestled in Jeremy's pocket. He would come back. If he didn't care, He would have left it behind. I hoped, with all my might, that he would come back.
"Wait a cotton pickin' minute!" said someone, then Shade looked at me, an angry look in its eye. "Do you think...Jeremy was part of the Company?!?!" he said. I shook my head. We couldn't go back into the house now. I sank to the bottom of the tree, and looked up at the sky.
"Jeremy, where are you? What are you doing? Don't you care about us?" I sent the thought out into the world, hoping it would be heard. I lifted my head to the sky, and sang. A song of sorrow, loss, and heart break. Though he did not know it, and probably never would, I truly loved him, and hoped that we would meet again, so I could tell him how I felt.

hmm... This is my poem, it's probably not very good but we'll see. Enjoy!
That star you see, is my star,
It has no name,
Well not to me,
I think its called the north star,
But thats for people at sea.
But this is my star,
It shines to protect me,
It has no name,
It should find its own,
But its never alone,
Where ever it may be,
But to me,
The star will always be,
My guidance and hope,
It's my star you see!
