Post subject: Week 1 Gameday Thread: Rams vs. Cardinals
Ramsfan28 is too busy for a press conference to begin this season, so he had Rex Ryan take his place
Reporter: Rex, when is the gameday thread going to be up?
Rex: Well, I stand by my decision to start the guy we wanted to start. We tried to make a decision to give us the best possible game day thread, and I stand by my decision.
Reporter: Will there be a gameday thread?
Rex: It sucks 28 suffered a typing injury, but I left him in charge of making the thread because I wanted the best possible writer at the time.
Reporter: Is that a yes or a no?
Rex: I don't have to answer that question! I can say anything I want, that's the beauty of this country!
Reporter: Is 28 going to do the thread?
Rex: I've already answered that! Here, he'll make the freakin' thread. He'll do it backwards!
Rams: 28
Cardinals: 24
I think this will be a much closer game than anticipated. Arizona has a tough D, and this offense will still be trying to syncopate. The Rams defense will be stout as usual, hopefully giving the QB nightmares like they did last year. However, I see the Cardinals getting some points from some gifts from the Rams offense (fumbles and interceptions. just make peace with it, it's going to happen). I think it's going to be a sloppy game, but I'm giving the Rams the edge. I feel they will utilize the talent they have to create the proper mismatches.
Meanwhile, in New England
Belichick: Alright, I've got a new program established. It's called "a background check." Just scan someone in this machine and their background will come up.
Kraft: Hmmm...let me give it a whirl!
Kraft: Belichick, Bill. Age, 61 years. Hometown, Nashville, Tennessee. Married. Let's see...crimes....blowing up Alderaan, slicing off his son's hand, killing younglings with a lightsaber, sodomizi-"
Belichick: ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT, YOU GET THE JIST! GIMME THAT!
Kraft: Oh, Bill....you know I don't care about your past! Your ability to take mid-round picks and make them stars far outweighs your evil-doings as a Sith Lord!
Belichick: The concern is not with me, but my players. I don't want this team getting anymore publicity, otherwise they might start....digging...
Kraft: Yeah, I can't believe the whole Hernandez thing, I never saw that one coming...
8 months prior
Hernandez: Hello, Mr. Mac and Cheese, I had some ideas for making this team more marketable.
Kraft: Why...sure...let's here them Aaron.
Hernandez:Okay, I was thinking, you know how those musketeers celebrate us scoring touchdowns by shooting those blank rounds in the air out of those old school muskets?
Kraft: Yes. It is a tradition of Patriot football.
Hernandez: Well, I was thinking we could take out the blanks, and put in some REAL rounds.
Kraft: Uh...that would be danger-
Hernandez: And, instead of shooting them in the air, I was thinking we could fire them at seat 18, row 22, section H, at a guy known as "Tron"
Kraft: ....not sure how I feel about th-
Hernandez: And just in case they don't hit their mark, I got Tron's address. So, like, after the game and stuff, they could just stroll by his house. We could make a fake endzone, someone can toss me a football, then POW POW POW POW POW!!!!
7 months earlier
Belichick: Alright, today at practice we're going to work out of the pistol formation.
Hernandez: Oh HHHEEELLLLLL YES! Can we work it out of an SUV?
6 months earlier
Brady: Great game film coach. Ah, I remember this series, I hike the ball, let my eyes sparkle, pet a baby goat, and then Aaron fumbles the ball. See! I make my drop, great catch Aaron! And then....
Brady: What is this??
Aaron: I never fumbled no ball.
Brady: Aaron! That's not even game film, that's a monkey!
Belichick: He's riding on a segway!
Brady: Quit destroying evidence! What's going to happen next time you make a mistake?
Aaron: ....anyone ever see a Panda sneeze before?
Meanwhile, in....America...
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court 1: Hmmm....looks like we really botched on this capital punishment verdict. Too harsh, huh?
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court 2: Yeah, people are furious, picketing outside of the Supreme Court.
Some Senator Guy: Hey, I have an idea, let's have the NCAA take control of the Justice System!
Yes, that's right folks! The NCAA wants to be YOUR judge! Vote NCAA for 2014! Imagine the possibilities!
Jonny Manziel: I did business with the NCAA. I messed up. But they were fair and honest. I would vote for them. Go...NCAA!
Let's hear it for the verdicts!
What if Joffrey were with the NCAA?
Joffrey: My mother has asked me to spare Ned Stark's life. But women have weak hearts, for as long as I am king treason shall not go unpunished. Ser Illyn, bring me his....PIN!
Ned: ....your grace?
Joffrey: Yes, you can't be the hand of he King...for the first half of this day. You can resume your duties at dusk.
And what about Ramsay Snow?
Ramsay: I'm not going to take off the whole thing, Theon....just the first half!
What if the Spanish Inquisition were the NCAA?
Grand Inquisitor: And what is your faith?
Peasant: I actually worship a flying spaghetti monster. And the pope is not my pope, I didn't vote for him.
Inquisitor: Hmmm....punishment shall be...
Grand Inquisitor: TICKLING!
Inquisitor: TICKLE! TICKLE!
And how about an Alternative Ending for William Wallace?
Judge: William Wallace, do you confess your treasons? .
Wallace: .ragh...rargh...
Judge: Just say...mercy
Wallace: .....FFFRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Judge: ....no sieges for a day. Go back to Scotland. Oh, AND you can get down and dirty with the queen.
The NCAA: We're Awesome!
Gameday Food
I'm deviating from the norm a little bit. No chips, pizza rolls, nachos, potato skins, but something equally as addicting (and just as unhealthy). I want something fatty, salty, sugary, and greasy all in one bite. That is why I'm making these:
Fried Sugar Biscuits
What you need:
6C All Purpose Flour
3 tbsp Baking Powder
2 tbsp salt
3/4 C Butter
2 C Milk
1/4 C Buttermilk
Spice Mix:
3 tbsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Cayenne
1C Sugar
For the Frying:
Soybean or Canola Oil (just enough to fill up a pot for deep frying)
1. Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together. (your dry ingredients)
2. Take your dry ingredients, and cut the butter into them.
I like to use this guy for the job:
(a regular steel pastry cutter works just fine too)
The trick is, you want the dough to be nice and sandy at this point. Make sure you work all of that fat in.
3. Mix in the milk and buttermilk. Mix it, but DON'T OVER MIX IT! You want it to be nice and chunky, not smooth. The chunkiness is what creates the layers, which is what makes them crispy and flaky.
4. Roll out your dough with a rolling pin. It should be about 1/2 an inch thick. If you have a dough cutter, cut them into little circle. If you don't care about aesthetics, just rip them! (try to keep them evenly sized though)
5. Now the best part....FRYING! If you have a thermometer, awesome. Make sure your oil is at 350 degree Fahrenheit. If you don't and you want to wing it (which is what I usually do, though this is not recommended), take a piece of your dough and drop it into the oil to test it out. What you want to see is it expanding in size, golden brown, and crispy.
Word of caution: DON'T CRANK YOUR OIL! IT WILL BURN! (I've done this before!) IF IT DOES BURN, SMOTHER IT! COVER IT WITH ANOTHER PAN OR POUR A SALT/FLOUR/BAKING SODA OVER IT!
6. Once your biscuits are fried, coat them with your spice mix. If you're going for something a little more glazed...apply heat to your bowl you're tossing them in. This will cause the sugar to melt, and create a syrup (messy, but delicious!)
To Begin, a word from my Adopt-a-Ram Janoris Jenkins.
"Ramsfan28 is the coolest dude around. I'll put up mad numbers for him. And I like his Leroy Jenkins mocks of my last name....ha-ha, ha-ha..."
"Yo, I'm gettin' paid for this, right?"
Stan Kroenke listens to Nickelback

that was great.. Been waiting for a while for this
I haven't been this excited about the season in a very long time. Got Sunday ticket, going to a game as well. I'm trying not to get my hopes up TOO high.. You all know how that works.
It's about time someone got bradford some weapons. I have high expectations for him this year and for this game. I see him throwing 2-3 touchdowns this game and starting off the season on a high note
I think our Dline will dominate their offensive line and hopefully that will throw off Carson Palmer and lead to some INT's.
As for the Cardinals, I'm not counting them out by any means. I would like to see what the honey badger has in stores for the NFL. That defense seems like it'll be a good one. Even though they lose Washington for a while. I just don't believe in the offense and I think that's what the difference In This game will be.
My players to watch for us are:
Bradford- as I said I'm expecting big things. Just hope it doesn't take a while for the offense to start to click
Richardson- will he be able to handle the #1 role? I hope so. I can see him rushing for about 70-80 in the game
Tavon Austin- finally! We get to see him in a full game. Lets see if Arizona dares to kick to him.
The whole defense- I think it's a question mark at safety still.. But our front 7 should help them out with good pressure
My prediction
Cardinals 13
Rams 31
Tavon Austin
39 catches-- 409 yards---4TD
8carries----- 95yards-----1TD
1,086 All Purpose Yards 6 TD

I can't quite contain myself. I am so excited to simply watch our team play a full game.
Not too mention we get to start off versus a rival at home. It should be a good match up.
I am excited to see what the Rams have to show, but they better show up and not sleep on this Cardinals team. They have more than enough pieces to win this game.
We need to come in ready to play.

I see us winning this game in the first half. Carson Palmer is not a difference maker, their o-line still figures to be suspect. Our new weapons, having not been fully displayed this pre-season, make plays that lead to 3 offensive touchdowns. The defense forces 2 turnovers, we win the game 27-16.

I love these GDTs. I also like the little chef bonus edition. You should add that more often. I still can't believe Week 1 is coming up. This will be the last Sunday without football for a long time. Go Rams.

The Rams haven't won in week 1 since 2006 against the Broncos (Which is the last season we broke even as far as wins/losses). Maybe we can get the monkey off our back this year. Very excited for this. Hope we can start the year off strong.
Also Loved the GDT! It's most of the reason I come here.

Best Of :: Food & Drink
Saddam Hussein's last meal consisted of boiled chicken and rice. Adolf Eichmann simply swilled half a bottle of Carmel an Israeli wine. John Wayne Gacy chowed down on fried chicken, fried shrimp, French fries, and strawberries (always healthy to finish with fresh fruit). Fried chicken, in case you were dying to know, is among the most popular last meal requests of the condemned. The most frightening final snack was Timothy McVeigh asking for two pints of Ben & Jerry's mint chocolate-chip ice cream scary because it's so sane! Everyone exhibits their own uniquely personal style when it comes to a last supper choice, and you needn't be a convicted mass murderer to dwell upon what yours would ideally be. Ours: Well, pretty similar to that of mass murderer McVeigh's after all, what could be more immediately refreshing and mind-numbingly satisfying than ice cream to have lingering on your lips as life slips awayç Rocky's Italian Ices, that's what. The closet-size takeout shop on Ocean Drive, with photos of Rocky Marciano and Rocky Balboa on its red, white, and green-tile walls, boasts the finest Italian ices south of Mulberry Street. Lemon, watermelon, banana, canteloupe, and a half-dozen or so other scintillating flavors are made from fresh fruit, and run $2.75 for a six-ounce cup, up to $7.95 for the sixteen-ounce size. We'd ask for one of those little plastic spoonfuls of every flavor to taste, and then request one pint of each.
Carb-cravers, head to Little Havana. Thats where youll find Bon-Bon Bakery, which has been cranking out the baked stuff in Miami for 40 years. Here they sell hot Cuban bread straight from the oven. They also sell a variety of other breads with quirky names only Cubans could have come up with. In most cases, the names refer to their shape -- patines, for example, which translates to roller skates, and bonetico, which means little bonnet. For bread devotees with a sweet tooth, heres a real treat: pan de gloria (glory bread). They got it right when they named this one: sweet bread made with eggs, milk, and sugar. Another sweet bread for sale is the kind used to make medianoches. Heres something else thats sweet: The bread here is dirt-cheap. Dig through your pocket for loose change and youll be able to walk out with the goodies, which cost between 25 cents and $1 each.
The five or so authentic Chinese places in town have been done to death. Just Google "Chinese" and "Miami" and the names come up again and again. Lung Gong is authentic. Kon Chau's got dim sum on lock. But which restaurant is most Miami? Jamaica Kitchen no doubt. Enter its nook of the Sunset West Shopping Center and find yourself in a whirl of homemade soups (made daily), patties, and a curry goat that will make you do a backflip. But something odd about the menu draws you to a totally different place: the pork and hamchoy (a preserved mustard green), the suey mein (a noodle soup featuring a crazy egg roll stuffed with pork and shrimp $10 per quart). Or perhaps you are drawn to the simple delights of the "Chinese roast chicken." Prices vary from lunch to dinner, fluctuating between about $6 to $9. Sidle up to the long counter; enjoy the friendly banter of the mom and pop owners and the fine island beats playing in the background. Or don't. They've been around for more than 24 years, don't advertise, and have no interest in being reviewed or winning this award. Jah bless them they know they're the bomb.
Burgers stuffed with foie gras; burgers made from ground Kobe beef (destroying the whole point of this already butter-tender meat); burgers made from, and topped with, all manner of horrifyingly healthy stuff; burgers like the $99 double-truffle creation at DB's Bistro in Manhattan.... The chichi burger thing is one of today's hottest food trends. And we're so, so over it. For a taste that'll take you back to simpler, greasier times, hit this burger joint for a six-pack of old-fashioned sliders. Royal Castle's burgers are two-bite burgers like the Northeast's White Castles, or the Deep South's Krystals, but homegrown. In 1965 there were 287 shops in the chain, founded by Miami's "Hamburger King" William Singer; they were found throughout Florida, Georgia, Lousiana, and Tennessee. The chain no longer exists, but there is still this one independently run survivor in town that serves up classic thin patties sandwiched in comforting cottony-soft buns. The burgers' protein component is, admittedly, minimal. The beef patties are mostly just little edible coasters to hold the fried onions, full of good griddle grease, that are the main flavor component of all sliders. And an honest all-American junk food flavor it is. The price: 80 cents (90 cents for a cheeseburger), a bargain even when you eat a half-dozen.
A great number of great restaurants debuted this past year, but we're talking about flippin' David Bouley here, one of the three or four most talented chefs working in America today. Evolution, his first foray outside of New York, instantly magnifies South Florida's blip on the national culinary radar. It's also a great place to have dinner (it's not open for lunch), starting with raisin-and-apple rolls, salt-sprinkled brioche, and other Old World breads baked on premises. An herb broth brimming with pristine shellfish; Long Island duckling breast laced with honey, butter, and fresh lavender flowers; and scallop-crusted black sea bass in an intensely flavored bouillabaisse foam constitute another three mouth-watering reasons why Evolution is more evolved than its high-priced haute competition. (How expensiveç If you have to ask, you probably can't afford to eat here.) Then there are the cheeses by Terrance Brennan Artisanal Connoisseurs, the nearly infinite wine list, smoothly professional service, and a stylish Art Deco decor. Need further convincingç A complimentary intermezzo of electrically fresh strawberry soup with fromage blanc sorbet is so brilliant it will make you cry.
Your average Yucatecan wouldn't know a taco from a meatball parmigiana sandwich, but don't tell that to the owners of this neat and petite 40-seat restaurant, which specializes in cuisine from the Mayan peninsula. After all, if they want to sneak some fetching Mexican and Tex-Mex items onto their menu, it would be wrong of us to spoil things with regional quibbling especially when among the non-Yucatecan delights are the most kickass tacos al pastor in town.The trio of corn tortillas come sumptuously plumped with nothing but pork, the smoky nubs of meat softly grilled and subtly sweetened with pineapples and onions. Refried beans, salsa verde, and guacamole are served on the side, which is downright generous for a plate costing just $8.49. Plus it leaves plenty of pesos for glasses of Dos XX on tap.

Dear Donnasac,
The goal of the Radiesse is to provide volumization and rejuvenation, and while these two issues are closely related, they sometimes evolve in different ways as you are injecting. Because of this, I feel that the initial markings are not as crucial as is re-evaluation of the overall aesthetic as Radiesse is injected. Early on, I did mark patients prior to injection, but at this stage, I find markings get in the way of subtle but crucial rejuvenative changes as I inject.
Having said that, commonly marked areas are the malar mound (cheek fat over side facial bone), nasolabial fold barriers (border between middle part of cheek and lips, also called the "parentheses" of the face), marionette line barriers (prejowl area in lower face), and temporal areas (hollows in front of side hairline). The markings help define specific aesthetic subunits of the face.
Thanks again for your question. Hope this helps.

White thing emerging from betta's mouth? Urgent?
I was just going to turn off my betta's lights when i saw a cottony blob emerging from the side of his mouth. Im pretty sure its not fungus. He seemed really irritated by it and when it receeded into his mouth it moved in and out like with his opercular movements. Im kind of worried that he'll suffocate, please help? :help:
Fungus or a worm probably. Post a picture.
sounds kinda like mouth fungus. Hard to say without a pic.
Water change and replace with half the recommended aquarium salt until you can id it.

Auslogics Duplicate File Finder is a nice way to further clean up your computer. It is designed to find duplicate files on your computer that are taking up valuable space. It has the ability to search for many different types of files such as: image, audio, video, archived, and application files.
Not only is this program really useful, but it is really easy to use. Above is a picture of how the program looks when you first launch it. From this main screen, you can choose what types of files you would like to search for from the list. You can also choose different drives to look in, such as external hard drives. To do this, make sure the drive is plugged in and functioning, before your search.
Using Auslogics Rescue Center
This program has a recover center that can be used to restore all changes made by the program. For example, if you delete a file that turns out to be a necessary file, you can recover it from here. You can also do restores from certain checkpoints the program creates. Each time an application is installed or uninstalled, the Rescue Center sets a restore point. This can be extremely useful for all users.
Overall, I found this program to be functional and easy to use. We could all use more space on our computers, and this happens to be a very easy way of achieving that goal. I would recommend this program to anyone who stores a lot of pictures and documents on their computer. Click here [1] for the free download.

Oct. 19, 2013
FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Despite a strong showing on the boards, the Colorado State Rams fell to the Denver Pioneers in their home opener on Saturday, 181-119, at Moby Pool. CSU had a strong showing during the season's opening weekend, but the momentum was not enough.
"I think we competed very well against Denver," Head Coach Christopher Woodard said. "I think we fought very hard and we're slowly bridging the gap from previous seasons against DU. At the same time, it was very hard not to see the missed opportunities that we had. We definitely made some mistakes, and looked a little bit better last weekend. If we had some of those performances again we would have definitely made it a very close meet."
The Rams' strongest events of the day were undoubtedly 1- and 3-meter diving. Of the three teams CSU has faced this season, none have toppled the Rams from first place in diving. CSU swept the placements on the 1-meter boards with Ariana Milone leading the effort in first (288.08), followed by Paige Greely (268.73) and Mary Kate Hardy (267.60). In the 3-meter diving event Milone (299.25) and Greely (283.80) again clamed first and second, respectively. Milone's score in the 3-meter was her lifetime best and ranks her as the fourth-highest scorer in CSU history.
"They all did great; they had a really good meet," head diving coach Kevin Witt said. "I'm seeing more consistency than we had last year at this point, but we're still not as consistent as we need to be. I think they look good and they'll occasionally have some really good things that happen in meets, but we're still not quite where we need to be by the end of the year, but for October I think we're doing really well."
All four of the divers who placed earned NCAA-qualifying scores. Milone qualified in both events; Greely made a qualifying score in 1-meter, and was just a few points off qualifying in 3-meter; and Hardy, earning her lifetime best, qualified in 1-meter for the first time in her collegiate career.
"The last two years Mary Kate has probably been within about five points of qualifying in 1-meter 15 times and she got it today, so that was great," Kevin Witt said.
The stars in the pool were underclassmen Cristina Bassani and Megan Lloyd. Lloyd, a freshman, pulled her fastest time of the season with her first-place finish in the 200 Butterfly (2:09.28). Sophomore Bassani fought out a close finish for first in the 100 Breaststroke, earning a time of 1:05.84.
"Both had great swims," Woodard said. "Megan is learning a lot, and I don't think we really knew exactly how tough she was. She can swim a multitude of events, but to come into an event that's not necessarily her primary event, win it and just stay tough through the whole swim, that was pretty impressive. Cristina just continues to impress in her sprint breaststroke. She's really developing into someone that we're going to count on in the short breast, as well as our relays."
CSU has two weeks before its next competition, which will be held at home at Moby Pool on Saturday, Nov. 9. The Rams will have the chance to break their back-to-back losses of the past two seasons against Northern Arizona. Competition will begin at noon and admission is free.
"We've got two weeks of solid work between now and then and we do need to do a lot of work," Woodard said. "We need to focus on a good amount of technical, but we also need to boost our volume a little bit and really prepare for this push towards NAU and Las Vegas. But again, I think given where we're at in the season, I feel pretty good."

Preventing crime, protecting the public and helping those in need
Four Birmingham drug dealers have been jailed for a total of 46 years after a West Midlands Police investigation uncovered a plot to supply Class A drugs worth £1.5m.
Detectives from the force's Serious and Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) arrested the men in February this year following a seven month investigation.
Sajad Hussain has been told he will serve 16 years after pleading guilty to conspiracy to supply drugs in June this year.
The 35-year-old was arrested whilst on a work placement when officers raided the premises he was based at it in Saltley in February this year. They seized £1.5m worth of heroin from the address and from a car at another location in the city.
He and five other men were subsequently charged with conspiracy to supply Class A drugs.
Hussain's brothers-in-law Nazabat Hussain, 23 and Asif Hussain, 26, both of Albert Road, Aston, were jailed for 12 and eight years respectively after pleading guilty. Naqash Younis, 33, of Hartley Road, Kingstanding, also admitted the charge and was jailed for 10 years.
Two other men, aged 25 and 43, from Birmingham, were found not guilty following a two week trial in July this year.
Detective Inspector Ronan Tyrer from the force's Serious and Organised Crime Unit, said: "This operation was set up to focus on the suspected drug supply activities of Sajid Hussain.
"As a result, we recovered six kilograms of heroin from a business premises called Cyber Beds in Saltley and a further nine kilograms from a vehicle parked outside Younis's address in Kingstanding. The total street value of the drugs was £1.5m."
He added: "The sentences send a strong message to people who involve themselves in drugs supply for their own financial gain and who cause damage to our communities with the drugs they peddle.
"Now court proceedings have ended, financial investigators will be look at these men's assets under the Proceeds of Crime Act to try and recoup the gains they made as a result of their criminal activities."

За ранее огромное спасибо)
- Eurasia is the combined continental landmass of Europe and Asia,[1][2][3] with the term being a portmanteau of its two constituents. Located primarily in the Northern and Eastern Hemispheres, it is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on the west, the Pacific Ocean to the east, the Arctic Ocean on the north, and by Africa, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Indian Ocean to the south.[4] The division between Europe and Asia as two different continents is a historical and cultural construct, with no clear physical separation between them; thus, in some parts of the world, Eurasia is considered the largest of five or six continents.[3]Eurasia covers around 52,990,000 square kilometres (20,460,000 sq mi), or around 36.2% of the Earth's total land area. The landmass contains around 4.6 billion people, equating to 72.5% of the human population. Humans first settled in Eurasia from Africa, between 60,000 and 125,000 years ago.[5][6]
North America is a continent wholly within the Northern Hemisphere and almost wholly within the Western Hemisphere. It is also considered a northern subcontinent of theAmericas.[2] It is bordered to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the east by the Atlantic Ocean, to the west and south by the Pacific Ocean, and to the southeast by South America and the Caribbean Sea.North America covers an area of about 24,709,000 square kilometers (9,540,000 square miles), about 4.8% of the planet's surface or about 16.5% of its land area. As of July 2008, its population was estimated at nearly 529 million people across 23 independent states, representing about 7.5% of the human population. Most of the continent's land area is dominated by Canada, the United States, and Mexico, while smaller states exist in theCentral American and Caribbean regions. North America is the third-largest continent by area, following Asia and Africa,[3] and the fourth by population after Asia, Africa, andEurope.[4]
Australia i/əˈstreɪljə, ɒ-, -iə/,[10][11] officially the Commonwealth of Australia,[12] is a country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania, and numerous smaller islands. It is the world's sixth-largest country by total area. Neighbouring countries include Indonesia, East Timor and Papua New Guinea to the north; the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and New Caledonia to the north-east; and New Zealand to the south-east.For at least 40,000 years[13] before the first British settlement in the late 18th century,[14][15] Australia was inhabited by indigenous Australians,[16] who spoke languages grouped into roughly 250 language groups.[17][18] After the discovery of the continent by Dutch explorers in 1606, Australia's eastern half was claimed by Great Britain in 1770 and settled through penal transportation to the colony of New South Wales from 26 January 1788. The population grew steadily in subsequent decades; the continent was explored and an additional five self-governing Crown Colonies were established.

Reader: Before you judge a dish like paella, see if it tastes good
Does this look like Denver's best paella to you? It definitely tasted that way to Lori Midson, who proclaimed it the "holy grail" in her search for great paella and asked readers to guess where she'd found it.
Turned out the answer was Solera. But before we got that, we had to read many, many comments about the right way -- and the wrong way -- to make this dish.
Finally, yesterday Mantonat issued the final word on what makes this rice so nice:
Wow, those are some uptight paella eaters! I thought I was persnickety about food descriptions. For those who think paella can only be one thing prepared in an exact way, why aren't you upset that there's even seafood in the dish? The roots of paella included using local meats, so inland paellas generally contained rabbit, snails, and beans, not seafood.
If you're going to get all wound up about the amount of sauce or tomatoes, maybe you should first go to the restaurant and see if the dish TASTES GOOD! A great deal of leeway can be permitted in the naming of a dish if the chef actually puts a little care and love into crafting the flavors and selecting the ingredients. You can go all over Spain (and the US for that matter) and find paella plates prepared in a perfectly traditional manner but that nevertheless suck. So, maybe this dish is missing that nice toasty crust from the bottom of the pan but all the other flavors are of tasty and of Spanish influence. I'd hate to miss out on good food just because my preconceptions got in the way.
Miss out on some of our previous guess where contests? Find them all here.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Playboy founder Hugh Hefner, dumped by his fiancee days before their wedding, said Wednesday he is affixing "Runaway Bride" stickers over her picture on the cover of the magazine's upcoming issue.
Hefner, 85, announced a day earlier that 25-year-old Crystal Harris had "a change of heart," and that Saturday's wedding ceremony for 300 people at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles had been canceled.
In an unfortunate coincidence, Harris appears on the cover of the July Playboy issue, hitting newsstands Friday, described as "America's Princess ... Introducing Mrs. Crystal Hefner."
In the interests of journalistic accuracy, Hefner has moved quickly to remedy the situation.
"Recent events call for a special sticker on the July cover. Look for it on newsstands," Hefner said on Twitter.
A big red sticker announcing "Runaway Bride In This Issue!" covers most of Harris' bottom half.
Still visible is Hefner's beloved cocker spaniel, which Harris took with her after the split. She is wearing his trademark sailor's cap and smoking jacket, and holding a pipe.
A spokeswoman said the sticker would appear only on newsstand copies since issues have already been mailed to subscribers.
It was not clear why the couple split, although Hefner said there were no arguments. TMZ reported that Harris wanted a bigger weekly allowance and a career in the music business. Coincidentally she released a song, "Club Queen," through iTunes Tuesday. Continued...

New Home Mennonite Church (General Conference Mennonite), now extinct, was located 2 miles (3.2 km.) south of Westbrook, Cottonwood County, Minnesota, about 30 miles (48 km.) from the Immanuel church at Delft. It was organized in 1881 by immigrants from Galicia. The last record of the group is in 1950 when it had 20 members, the highest membership having been reached in 1945 with 46 members. The first minister was Daniel Huber, the last E. E. Hubin.

Thanks for all the good info, will be starting on this in the next month or so, will update the job is done.
Brain Fart
You also asked about tire size for the F, 215/45/18 is the only one that fits the F. I have heard, but could not find, of a 205...like I said, couldn't find one so just went safe with the 215. You will have to deflate the tire to get it back on the bike. When you get the axle in, the tire may touch the drive shaft, when you rein folate it you will not have it rubbing. For what it's worth, I have a Hankook Ventus ($85+ shipping) and run 40 psi.
|Just had to R&R the rear wheel on mine after getting a nail in the tire. Very easy job. Only need a jack and a few tools. I would however suggest you get the moly paste you need for the splines on the hub before you start the job. The closest place I could find any was about an hour drive away.

If your have a motorcycle lift or can make a make-shift lift it is easy to do yourself, the shaft is easier than a chain! Just remember, deflate the tire after seating the bead to get it back on the bike, then inflate it.
Here is a link with a step by step walk through for you:

looking too go to the darkside and looking for the tire size for 05 1800f and how dificult is removing the wheel from the bike to take in and have the tire changed? I dont want too get over my head being this would be my first shaft drive I will be taking apart.

The Fine Art of the Tin Can
by Bobby Hansson
In a newly revised and expanded version of his original success, celebrated folk artist Bobby Hanson takes the humble tin can and elevates it to art. On display in attention-grabbing photos are an array of quirky objects that will delight and amaze--and all it takes to make them are a few simple tools, some cans, and these simple instructions on cutting, shaping, riveting, and soldering. The charmingly fun projects include some childlike objects such as whistles, trucks, and airplanes; a "Tin Pan Alley" series of musical instruments, including a "canjo" and chimes; and even stunning jewelry and sculptures. Artists, metal crafters, and anyone seeking a new creative outlet will find inspiration aplenty in these uniquely original ideas and projects.

Hockey is the fastest paced of all major sports because its players rush to complete the game before the ice field melts into vinegar. Enjoy the acidic thrill of competition with today's GrouponLive deal to see the Portland Winterhawks take the ice at Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
$30 for Two Lower-Level Tickets (Up to $63 Value)
Two tickets in the 100-level red seating section for one of the following games:

Doors open one hour before the opening face-off.
The Scouting Report
For the last two seasons, the Winterhawks have snagged the title of Western Conference champion. Undaunted by the loss of the Chynoweth Cup, the team has yet again risen to the top of the Western Conference's US Division with a 37–5–1 record and is currently on an incredible 14-win streak. The club owes its repeated success to a star-studded roster that includes centers Nicolas Petan and Brendan Leipsic, currently the top two scorers in the league with more than 70 points each. Right wing Ty Rattie also ranks among the WHL's top 10 scorers. Though this merchant sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.

Despite the adoption of EU anti-discrimination legislation and the EU Framework for NRIS, extremist organisations, individuals, public officials and politicians continue to openly discriminate against Roma at an alarming rate. We can observe increasing anti-Roma sentiments and anti-Gypsyism and persistent patterns of violent attacks and actions against this minority.
Roma, mainly from Eastern MS, in addition to poverty and discrimination in housing, employment, education and health, face constant intimidation and violence. Of course, this is not just an East European phenomenon as it also happens in some western MS (i.e. France and Italy).
Of particular concern is the increase of paramilitary and militia groups and extreme right-wing organisations targeting and terrorising Roma and using anti-Roma rhetoric (particularly in Bulgaria, Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic and Romania). These groups have the Roma as their target group. They use fear to intimidate Roma and they're extremely aggressive as they carry violent assaults and racially motivated violence against this group causing the death of many. Groups embracing and promoting racist anti-Roma ideologies and strategies constitute a direct violation of the fundamental rights of this minority.
In parallel to this, Europe's far right is rising. Many politicians play the ethnic card as a strategy to gain votes by using racist and anti-Roma rhetoric and hate speech fuelling anti-Gypsyism.
As a way to survive, either to poverty, discrimination or physical threat, many Roma move to other MS. Since Roma are most vulnerable to discrimination, they will continue to be the bigger scapegoat in the new MS they move to.
This must end. Roma's right to security and life have to be protected now. Both the EC and MS have to take a strong position against right-wing extremism and incitement to hatred.
How come we still have such scenario, so many years after the adoption of the Race Equality Directive (RED)?
Well, ERIO's monitoring of the RED implementation shows that some countries have not fully enforced the Directive and that law enforcement authorities face many challenges. It's important that all actors work together in order to overcome such challenges.
We believe that Equality Bodies (EBs) can play a key role in tackling anti-Roma discrimination. They should work closely with civil society.
That's why we've been having annual workshops with Equality Bodies and Roma civil society to attempt to address challenges and opportunities when it comes to the RED implementation.
Some solutions identified during consultations with:

Mark Taylor followed Jaap by discussing a new take on Wunderman's long-term strategic approach to relationship marketing. Specifically, he mentioned marketers must acknowledge the shift to "The age of influence marketing" by embracing two new channels:
1) The Channel of Me and 2) The Channel of Us
Both channels actually leverage the *consumer* as a marketing vehicle as well as as a target audience.
Greetings from Forrester's EMEA consumer and finance forums in Barcelona! We've just finished the first two speakers of the event: Forrester's VP and Research Director, Jaap Favier and Wunderman's Chief Marketing Technologist Officer, Mark Taylor.
The presentations were an excellent introductions to the themes for both the consumer and the finance tracks: Share Your Brand (for the consumer track) and Beating the Competition With Superior Customer Experience (for the financial track).
Jaap had a few particular soundbites which I thought really crystalized the current state of marketers today, and also the changes they need to make in order to accommodate the growing influence of user generated content and virtual communities.

- How to Read a Study Record
In this project, we propose to recruit lean and obese subjects with different ethnic background (African Americans and Caucasians) to study the alterations of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism and determine whether these disturbances are linked to genetic, inflammatory, oxidative stress, and/or nutritional factors. Because systemic inflammation and insulin resistance are frequent features of obesity, we postulate that an unbalanced diet with high saturated- and low omega 3-fatty acids is linked to obesity-related inflammation and insulin resistance. We propose to investigate fatty acid metabolism and determine the links between fatty acid composition and oxidative stress in tissues of lean and obese subjects. We propose the following aims:
Specific Aim 1: Evaluate nutrient intake in lean and obese subjects using the standard NHANES Food Questionnaire.
Specific Aim 2: Evaluate the fatty acid composition, including omega-3, in adipose tissue depots, blood monocytes and skeletal muscle, and examine the relationship between omega-3 content and inflammatory and oxidative stress markers.
Specific Aim 3: Compare the effects of omega-3 and saturated FA supplementation on inflammatory and oxidative stress markers in vitro in adipose tissue explants, preadipocytes and monocyte culture.

Walking Meditation Instruction
by Ajahn Brahmavamso
Walking meditation is beautiful, especially in the early morning. Often when one gets up early in the morning, in particular when you're not used to getting up early, you're quite tired and the mind isn't bright. One of the advantages of walking meditation is that you can't nod while you're walking. You don't snore either! You're awake because you have to be. So if you're tired, walking meditation is very good to do. It brings up some energy, and also you can get very peaceful.
Walking meditation was both praised and practiced by the Buddha. If you read the Suttas, (the teachings in the Pali Canon), you find that the Buddha would usually walk meditation in the early morning. He wouldn't be sitting he'd be walking.
Many monks and nuns became enlightened on the walking meditation path. It's a very effective way of developing both calm and insight (but not to the extent of Jhana). For some monks that I know in Thailand, their main practice is walking meditation. They do very little sitting. They do a lot of walking, and many get tremendously powerful insights while they're walking.
Another benefit of walking meditation is that it is especially suitable for those who have physical discomfort in sitting for long periods. If you find it difficult to sit meditation because of pains in the body, walking meditation can be very effective.
So please don't look at walking meditation as a "second class" meditation. If you want to spend most of your meditation time this way, please do so. But do it well, do it carefully. See if you can develop that happiness born of serenity as you're walking backwards and forwards.
Setting Up Walking Meditation
Choose a clear, straight path between twenty and thirty paces long. This can be a corridor in a house, a path in the garden or just a track on the grass. Use whatever is available, even if it's a bit less than twenty paces long. If it's comfortable to do so, walk without shoes, enjoying the contact of your bare feet on the ground.
Stand at one end of your path. Compose the mind. Relax the body and begin walking. Begin walking back and forth at a pace that seems natural to you. While you are walking, place your hands comfortably in front of you, and rest your gaze on the ground about two meters in front of you. Be careful not to look around. If you're doing walking meditation, it's a waste of time to look over here and look over there, because that would just distract the attention from the feet, where it should be.
Attention on Each Step Rather than the Breath
In walking meditation, the attention eventually comes to rest on the foot rather than the breath [To begin] first reach the state of just walking, easily, in the here-and-now. When you feel that you have settled into the present moment, where business to do with the past and future is absent from the mind, then aim to develop silent walking in the present moment…Gradually let go of all thinking. Walk without commentary. Using skills of attention you've developed in sitting mediation, reach the stage of silent walking.
Once the inner commentary has slowed to a bare trickle of inner speech, deliberately focus your attention on the feeling of movement in the feet and lower legs. Do so to the extent that you clearly notice every step on the path. Know every left step, know every right step – one after the other without missing one. Know every step as you turn around at the end of the path. The famous Chinese proverb of the "Journey of one thousand miles" is helpful here. Such a journey is in fact only one step long — that step which you are walking now. So, just be silently aware of this "one step" and let everything else go. When you have completed ten return trips up and down the path without missing one left step and without missing one right step, then you have fulfilled Stage Three of the walking meditation and may proceed to the next stage.
As the attention increases you notice every feeling of movement in the left step, from the very beginning when the left foot starts to move and lift up from the ground. Notice as it goes up, forward, down and then rests on the ground again, taking the weight of the body. Develop this continuous awareness of the left step and then similar smooth, unbroken awareness of the right step. Do this throughout every step to the end of the path. Then as you turn around notice every feeling in the turning-around movement, not missing a moment.
When you can walk for fifteen minutes or more comfortably sustaining the attention on every moment of walking, without a single break, then you have reached the Fourth Stage of walking meditation, full awareness of walking. At this point the process of walking so fully occupies the attention that the mind cannot be distracted. You know when this happens because the mind goes into a state of Samadhi (Sustained Attention) and becomes very peaceful.
Samadhi on the Walking Path
Even the sound of the birds disappears as your attention is fully taken up with the experience of walking. Your attention is easily concentrated on one thing, sustained on one thing, settled on one thing. You will find this a very pleasant experience indeed.
As your mindfulness increases, you get to know more and more of the sensations of walking. Then you find that walking does have this sense of beauty and peace to it. It becomes a "beautiful step". And it can very easily absorb all your attention because you become fascinated and peaceful, just putting all your attention on walking. You can get a great deal of Samadhi through walking meditation in this way. That Samadhi is a sense of peacefulness, a sense of stillness, a sense of the mind just being very comfortable and very peaceful in it's corner of the world.
I started my walking meditation when I first ordained as a monk in a temple in Thailand. I would choose a path, and quite naturally, without forcing it, I'd walk very slowly. (You don't need to walk fast; you don't need to walk slow; just do what feels comfortable). I used to get into beautiful Samadhi states during walking meditation. I recall once being disturbed because I'd been walking too long. I hadn't noticed the time pass, and I was needed to go to a ceremony in this temple in Bangkok. One of the monks had been sent to go and get me.
And I recall this monk came up to me and said, "Brahmavamso, you've got to come to a Dana". I was looking at a space about two meters in front. My arms were in front of me, and my hands folded. When I heard that, it was as if hearing it from a thousand miles away, because I was so absorbed into what I was doing. He repeated, "Brahmavamso, you have to come now". It took me about one minute to actually lift my head from the ground and to turn it around to the side where this senior monk was trying to get my attention. And as I met his eyes, all I could say was "Pardon?" It took such a long time to get out of that Samadhi and actually do anything quickly. The mind was so cool and so peaceful and so still.
I hope you experience this peacefulness for yourselves when you try walking meditation. Many people I've taught walking meditation to for the first time have said: "Wow! This is amazing. This is beautiful". Just slowing down, you get into peace. You're getting into calm by just watching the sensations as you walk. So this is one other type of meditation that I am suggesting to you, giving to you to experiment with.

It not that I feel sleepy as much as that my mind drifts off into a dreamy state.
Gotama Buddha wrote:'And how, monks, does a monk abide contemplating the body as body? Here a monk, having gone into the forest, or to the root of a tree or to an empty place, sits down cross-legged, holding his body erect, having established mindfulness before him. Mindfully he breaths in, mindfully he breaths out. Breathing in a long breath, he knows that he breathes in a long breath, and breathing out a long breath, he knows that he breathes out a long breath.

"I killed, cut off heads" says repentant Mexico hitman
By Robin Emmott and Julian Cardona
CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico (Reuters) - The kills started with a telephone call and often ended with a beheading, but they were all just jobs for the drug hitman, one of maybe hundreds that have scarred Ciudad Juarez's streets. He now says the tortured faces of the dead haunt him.
Recounting his years as a hired killer, he says most of his jobs began with a voice down the phone telling him where to meet. At the safe house he would find the weapons and the hit squad. They would pass around a photo of their target -- a police chief who owed money, a politician who got in the way -- and wait for the signal, sometimes for days.
The target can be at home, at the office, outside a mall, or on patrol, but the killers rarely struggle to find their prey. Bodyguards are regularly bought off.
Several shots to the back of the head or a tight ring of bullets through the car door and into the body is enough.
The killers are told to cut off the victim's head if he talked too much. They will saw off his arms and fingers if he stole drugs and cash. And they'll chop up his body if they've been told to.
"There are things people do that they shouldn't, and that is the punishment," the hitman and former Mexican police officer told Reuters from a secure location in Ciudad Juarez, across the border from El Paso, Texas.
Fearing for his safety, he asked to have his identity kept secret. He spoke in almost a whisper, his eyes hidden behind mirrored sunglasses. A row of broken teeth were just visible behind his bottom lip.
Hitmen working for murderous drug gangs are turning Mexico, a top U.S. oil supplier and trade partner and a prominent emerging market economy that has scored points for political stability, into a conflict zone that is alarming Washington, tourists and foreign investors. Continued...
