Hobbies and interests:
Happiness is being in the moment, and having health, peace of mind and love. Breathing is very, very good, so are flexibility and movement. Joy is found everywhere...in family, friends, work, and play, snowflakes, clouds and mountains; bears, birds, trees and flowers.
About me:
I have a good heart, I am a romantic woman, loyal, sincere woman. My personality is quiet, stable, introspective, calm, honest. My dream to have a loving family. I am willing to travel across any sea to find true love. I need to belong to one man in the deep blue sea of love I am loving and caring. Somebody was saying, that an ideal woman should be "like a chef in the kitchen, a lady in the society, and loving in bed". I agree. I try that my glamor and femininity should reflect around my home in the street in the society. My life is happy, but the missing ingredient is the sharing of love with a true life's partner.
Looking For Men Type:
My beloved should be optimistic and amusing, with a good sense of humor, because I think that the man should be able to make the woman laugh. But at the same time he should be a real protecting wall for his beloved, where she can be afraid of absolutely nothing. What is more, I am interested in serious relations and that's why I want my beloved to be able to become a reliable husband for me and a real father for our future children.

Anyone else using Rainmeter? I'm trying to figure out what to do with my desktop. Currently, it's what I previously posted (A combination of some five themes/skins to give it a "command center" type theme that gives very useful information about my computer. It even says "Systems initialized. Welcome back commander" right after it starts up).
Basically, what I'm looking for is:
- Tech/computer look. Maybe something more elegent than what my past desktop was
- Able to display useful information about my computer (Temps, CPU/RAM loads, Network up/down usage, etc..)
- Neat features (Such as a voice that welcomes you at startup, a rotating globe, something interactive like the "Steam wheel" I have now.
- Something different than what I have had before (see my previous entry, please)
Thanks in advance to anyone that has suggestions.

Arsène Wenger has not ruled out adding to his squad before the transfer window shuts at the end of the month - but the Arsenal manager admits he is not close to signing anyone at the moment.
The Frenchman made it clear on Friday that he would happily give one of his younger players a chance if he could not find an experienced, top class midfielder before the deadline passes on August 31.
Wenger was pressed on his transfer plans after the Emirates Cup ended on Sunday and, once again, he refused to give anything away.
"I cannot tell you anything more," he said. "If we sign a player we will come out and tell you, but I can say to you now that we are not close to signing anybody."
Aston Villa midfielder Gareth Barry has been heavily linked with a move to Liverpool but Wenger would not be drawn on whether his admiration for the England midfielder would prompt a bid from Arsenal.
"I don't know if Gareth Barry will leave Aston Villa or not, but I am not on his case," said the Frenchman. "I like Gareth Barry and I like two or three other players.
"It is better I don't speak about names, I said that yesterday. It is better I leave things to your [the media's] imagination and creation."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Police seek suspect that fled after high speed chase
HILLIARD, Ohio (WTVN) -- A high speed chase on I-270 early Friday morning ended with a fiery crash and the suspect taking off on foot.
The chase started around 3:22 a.m. when an officer noticed a vehicle speeding on Cemetery Road and learned that the owner of the vehicle had outstanding warrants.
Speeds reached about 100 mph before the suspect tried to exit at West Broad Street. They lost control and crashed. They ran from the scene and have still not been arrested.
Police don't know if the person driving the car is the registered owner.

Cravings during pregnancy, your kids would love it too...
Hello everybody,
Is it true that what you are craving for when you were pregnant is more likely what your kids would love?
When I was pregnant with my oldest boy, I loved to eat fish, and now he loves to eat fish.
With my young one, I drank a lot of cold Hershey's chocolate syrup drink all through out my pregnancy. And now, he likes it too.
At some point, it can be true (based on my experience) and now I am seeing it in my kids.
How about anyone else here? Share please.
Thank you.

After the Election, Fiscal Cliff Outcome May Surprise
Even though the election results are only just final, market participants are already focusing on the next big source of uncertainty: What does the largely status quo election outcome mean for the fiscal cliff?
We wrote recently that our base case for a fiscal cliff resolution – regardless of the election outcome – was a short-term, "mini" deal that largely kicked the can down the road on the majority of the key items. (Click here to read "Falling off the Fiscal Cliff?"). While this remains our base case, we can afford to have a more nuanced view now that the election outcome is known, including our opinion that there is now a greater likelihood of so-called tail events related to the fiscal cliff resolution, which will have implications for markets and for our positioning.
Our base case: still the most likely scenario
We have long maintained that Congress and the President – irrespective of the election outcome – would find a way to largely avert the fiscal cliff in a lame-duck mini deal that would reflect about 1.5% of GDP in fiscal contraction in 2013 (vs. the near 5% of GDP in contraction that would take place if they did nothing). We continue to believe that this is the most likely scenario – our base case – considering the individual provisions that comprise the fiscal cliff; specifically, there is significantly more agreement than disagreement among Democrats and Republicans on everything from extending the Bush tax cuts for the middle class to letting the payroll tax cut expire, not to mention a long history of similar "kicking the can down the road" agreements hammered out in past lame-duck sessions (remember the Bush-era tax cut extension of December 2010).
Now that the election outcomes are known, with a largely status quo Congress and Administration, we think there will likely be a deal not only on those issues of agreement, but also some sort of compromise on the handful of outstanding fiscal cliff issues that looked more intractable before the election – notably, the Bush tax cuts for the upper income earners and sequestration, the across-the-board spending cuts agreed to as part of the debt ceiling resolution in summer 2011. In addition, we believe that coupled with a mini deal, there will likely be a commitment or (optimistically) a process established for broader structural reform in 2013.
The fatter tails
While we believe the above scenario remains the most likely one, we also believe the tails – the chances for the more extreme outcomes – remain consequential following the status quo election.
The increased left tail: inaction
Although we long believed that letting the economy "go off the cliff" was a possibility, we believe that the probability of this – while still unlikely – is higher after the election than it was before. Why? Because without a meaningful shift in the composition in either chamber of Congress and the White House, the players who are negotiating the fiscal cliff deal are largely the same ones who have come close to driving our country to the brink in other, similar negotiations – whether in April 2011 when the government almost shut down over budget issues or in summer 2011 when the country came close to defaulting on its debt because of a lack of willingness to compromise on the debt ceiling. Unfortunately, the dynamics of polarization and partisanship that played a role in these past dysfunctional negotiations still exist and may have gotten worse after the recent election in the House of Representatives, where the Tea Party insurgency still holds and there are fewer moderate members within both parties.
The wider right tail: a grand bargain
On a more optimistic note, we also think that the "right tail" possibility of a positive outcome of a fiscal cliff resolution has increased after the election. Why? It is widely known that second-term presidents are largely interested in their legacies – spearheading noteworthy, bipartisan and lasting accomplishments for the history books. This was the case for President Reagan, who in 1986 helped to push through landmark tax reform; it was also true for President Clinton, who worked with a Republican Congress in his second term to pass balanced budget legislation and children's health insurance reform. Today, there is broad agreement that our country's fiscal path is untenable. Since the fiscal cliff forces many of these issues, one could easily see President Obama staking his legacy here and pushing for a "grand bargain" in short order to address the short-term needs of the fiscal cliff and the longer-term issues of our unsustainable debt burden.
Of course, whether Congress will cooperate with the President under this scenario is the big if; and recent history is far from reassuring on this. But this is not all bad news either. The partisan dynamics in the House notwithstanding, there is arguably a larger coalition of moderate members in the Senate than before the election who just won very close races. There are also many senators who are looking at very close senate races in the 2014 election and may be more inclined to compromise than before. If there is broad coalition between the President and the Senate, you could easily see the House having to relent to a larger deal, especially if the President dangles the carrot of future corporate tax reform in front of them.
What are the investment implications?
Thus far we have essentially laid out three extremely divergent, yet possible paths for the resolution of the fiscal cliff – our base case of a mini bargain or, if you are less charitable to our politicians, a "kick the can" deal that entails 1.5% of fiscal contraction in 2013 without meaningful long-term reform; a left tail outcome that entails paralysis and economic malaise; and a right tail outcome that surprises the market with compromise from both sides of the aisle. In other words, we do not know with a very high degree of confidence what the future holds and investors need to be conscious of the full range of potential scenarios.
In many ways, handicapping the fiscal cliff would have been much easier had there been a Republican sweep of the White House, Senate and House of Representatives. In this environment, it would have been unlikely that a Republican driver would have driven a car with two Republican passengers off of a cliff. It would have also been unlikely that the resolution would have been a balanced approach that included both spending cuts and revenue increases. Given the actual election outcome, though, we are left with a complicated situation where the outcome is compromise, collapse, or continuance of the same short-sighted approaches used to tackle previous fiscal standoffs.
How do we think investors should position given such a wide distribution of outcomes?
Our base case scenario, the most probable of the outcomes, calls for a defensive approach to risky assets. Fiscal contraction of 1.5% of GDP is a significant drag, considering that the economy is currently only growing at a 2.0% annualized rate. This contraction more than erases the expected boost to growth from an improving housing market and mutes the impact of policy accommodation from the Federal Reserve. Furthermore, while our base case of a short-term deal addresses the immediacy of the massive fiscal cliff, it does so in a manner that delays the inevitable confrontation with unsustainable debt dynamics. Uncertainty is not removed, it is simply prolonged – again suggesting a continuation of economic sluggishness as business leaders remain timid about investing and hiring with such an uncertain future. Additionally, a short-term deal, even if coupled with a promise or process for future reform, does little to tackle the fundamental issue that the expected paths for tax revenues and for entitlement spending just do not harmonize. Investors should continue to favor those trades that may benefit from the dichotomy between extremely proactive monetary policy and chronically irresponsible fiscal policy. These include Treasury curve steepeners, underweight U.S. dollar positions, and overweight commodities, TIPS and other real assets.
Finally, investors need to be conscious of how their portfolios may perform not just in the most likely scenario, but also in the tail scenarios.
Typically, we spend much of our time fixated on the left tail outcomes. However, despite the fact that we view each of the fiscal tails as having a similar probability of materializing, this is one of the several instances where particular attention needs to be paid to the right tail. Our defensive portfolio described above, coupled with our view that monetary accommodation would continue to serve as a policy backstop to asset price declines (aka "The Bernanke Put"), leaves us well positioned to weather the left tail outcome. However, it is the right tail outcome of a credible grand bargain with a meaningful trigger that will likely be a much greater surprise to a market that has become conditioned to gridlock in Washington.
Investors, including ourselves, have been preparing for the possibility of a fiscal cliff for months. It is the grand bargain that will catch the market most off guard. The reduction of uncertainty that accompanies a grand bargain, along with the massive liquidity provided by the Fed, the housing market which is finally showing a pulse, and the excess idle cash just resting on the sidelines all provide for a potentially intoxicating risk-on cocktail if Washington finds a way to surpass low expectations. Considering the relatively low level of volatility, particularly for out-of-the-money calls, this right tail can be hedged against relatively inexpensively via the equity volatility market.
In the end, while the election outcomes have not changed our base case outlook for the partial resolution of the fiscal cliff, it has made the likelihood of the so-called tail events higher. Investors should tighten their seat belts and prepare for an especially volatile few months ahead.

Portfolio Manager, Interest Rate Derivatives
Past performance is not a guarantee or a reliable indicator of future results. All investments contain risk and may lose value. Investing in the bond market is subject to certain risks including market, interest-rate, issuer, credit, and inflation risk. Equities may decline in value due to both real and perceived general market, economic, and industry conditions. Currency rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time and may reduce the returns of a portfolio. Sovereign securities are generally backed by the issuing government, obligations of U.S. Government agencies and authorities are supported by varying degrees but are generally not backed by the full faith of the U.S. Government; portfolios that invest in such securities are not guaranteed and will fluctuate in value. Inflation-linked bonds (ILBs) issued by a government are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation; ILBs decline in value when real interest rates rise. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) are ILBs issued by the U.S. Government. Commodities contain heightened risk including market, political, regulatory, and natural conditions, and may not be suitable for all investors. Tail risk hedging may involve entering into financial derivatives that are expected to increase in value during the occurrence of tail events. Investing in a tail event instrument could lose all or a portion of its value even in a period of severe market stress. A tail event is unpredictable; therefore, investments in instruments tied to the occurrence of a tail event are speculative. Derivatives and commodity-linked derivatives may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management and the risk that a position could not be closed when most advantageous. Commodity-linked derivative instruments may involve additional costs and risks such as changes in commodity index volatility or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs and international economic, political and regulatory developments. Investing in derivatives could lose more than the amount invested.
There is no guarantee that these investment strategies will work under all market conditions or are suitable for all investors and each investor should evaluate their ability to invest long-term, especially during periods of downturn in the market.

Nestled into a (very) unassuming location in Warwick, RI, Wharf Clothing & Wares is just under 3 months old. In that short time, owner Robert Babigian has built an impressive inline collection of shirting – I spent some time in the shop yesterday, inspecting firsthand. Sure, Rob benefits greatly from collaboration with the nearby New England Shirt Company (of Fall River, MA). But, he benefits equally from having a firm sense of what works and a willingness to play around. Shirts are produced in both oxford broadcloth and poplin, the club collar poplin shirts being the winner… though it must be noted that collar choices all round are what most impress about the collection. (We also love any opportunity to mention Fall River… and give a shout out to Chris Herren).
Take a detailed look at the Wharf Shirt – including a look at the club collar – after the leap.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 17/6/2014 (1106 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A home on MacLeod Drive has been abandoned for more than 25 years, and area residents say enough is enough.
Neighbours have witnessed vandalism, squatters and worry about their own property values.
"Kids have gotten in there a few times. We're always concerned that someone is going to light it on fire," said Kathleen Kretai, who lives next door to the abandoned property. "We've had problems with mice in our garage."
Residents say they are confused as to why the home has been left vacant for so long, as people have shown interest in buying the property.
"If we ever wanted to sell, we'd have a lot of problems selling because of this empty house beside us," Kretai said.
Coun. Jan Chaboyer (Green Acres), who brought the issue up at a recent city council meeting, said several residents have voiced similar concerns.
"It's a sad situation that this property has sat so long," she said.
"People in this neighbourhood have had to put up with this home beside them that is unoccupied, and I just don't see in our existing bylaw … enough teeth or enforcement there to … get it to the next stage to force the property owner to do something with the property."
Chaboyer said she hopes by bringing the issue up to council, the absentee landlord will decide to be "reasonable and recognize that the people of Brandon want healthy, well-maintained neighbourhoods."
"It's time to come up to the plate and deal with it."
Greg Merke, the city's building safety manager, said the property has an "extensive history."
"We had issued orders on it on, I believe, at least three other occasions with no success," he said. "We had issues with rear deck, stairs … the yard was getting considerably overgrown."
Amendments were made to the vacant and derelict building bylaw about a year ago. If vacant standards aren't met, the property owner must now get a boarded building permit.
A permit was issued for 33 MacLeod Dr., and according to Merke, the home was boarded up within the past few months. The cost of the permit was $2,000, and the fee increases annually by $1,500, in an effort to deter property owners from keeping it boarded up for too long.
The permit posted on the home's front door was issued to Pat Pollock, but the Brandon Sun was unable to reach her for comment.
Merke said the property is in compliance with the bylaw, as they have met the requirements for the permit, which is an annual, renewable permit.
"I just think the cost of the increasing permit will be a deterrent to keep the property in that state, no matter what the property is," Merke said.
Merke told council recently that the property owner is "seriously looking at selling the property" due to the increasing costs.
"If the residents will be just a little more patient for a little longer, I think the bylaw will address the issue," he said.
Merke noted that since the city began using the amended bylaw, demolition permits increased by 57 per cent from 2008 to 2013.
Chaboyer would like the city to put an appropriate time limit in place for a property owner to reoccupy or fix up a building for the general health of the neighbourhood.
"It's absurd to think that nothing can be done or has been done in that long time period," she said. "The city's come a long way in beefing up and improving the bylaw for derelict buildings, but we still have a long way to go."

Looking for a IWB holster for a LCP. Anyone if theres one available yet. Mine will be here next week and I'm just starting to look like the look of the Comp-Tac Minator but as I understand they don't make one for the Ruger Thanks
We are working on 2-3 rigs specifically for the LCP and one will definitely be a tuckable IWB, look for it and the others to be available within a month
If you want something quick and cheap, look at High Noon. I like mine, no need to get too complicated with something so small and light.
High Noon Holsters
There are a lot of custom makers that have the LCP mold, already. I know, because I'm on the "mailing list" and see who all gets the correspondence that I receive. That doesn't mean they all bought it, but they all got offered it.
I just picked up an LCP yesterday for my wife. We are going to have the same dilemma. She wants a SmartCarry though, so maybe not such a huge issue straight away..
What Jeremiah said. I'm currently using a High Noon tuckable IWB - very reasonable price and in stock for fast delivery. I'm very happy with Crossbreed for my MK9, so they'll likely be an excellent option.
this seller on ebay has IWB tuckables - I just ordered one. I don't know the guy, but the holster looks like it's made well... I have had a nylon IWB for a week that I just hate. I'll update this thread in a few days when I get this new one in...
Deep Cover IWB Holster for the RUGER LCP / KEL TEC P3AT - eBay (item 360071061626 end time Jul-22-08 19:02:46 PDT)
Anyone seen this one? Desantis Dual Carry
I am torn on the Desantis or a High Noon Mr_Softy
Then I see this Gun Glove
Decisions, decisions - Any more feedback would be super !!
I like the Covert Carrier Industries model the best for this application. Handgun Gallery
Crossbreed's MINI Tuck is excellent, very comfy and secure, their LCP model fits my Keltec P3AT. My LCP should be here soon. It is similar to the MTAC, but not quite as nice, as it has no double layered leather backer, just single piece of leather and the kydex & clip attachments are not covered. I'm happy with it, have had no problems. That Covert Carrier is junk in my opinion, had one HATED it, sent it back. Trigger not covered, gun not secure, just not a good idea, no matter what endorsements they claim to have.

This holster is very well made and works superbly. Here are a few pics for you.

Canisius College head men's basketball coach Jim Baron announced today that Tyrel Edwards (Hamilton, Ontario) and Dominique Raney (Oklahoma City, Okla.) have joined the Golden Griffins' roster for the 2012-13 season. Both players will have three years of eligibility, starting this season.
Edwards is a 6-foot-5, 195-pound forward who redshirted during the 2011-12 season at Olney Central College in Olney, Ill. During the 2010-11 season, he averaged 12.3 points and 3.5 rebounds while shooting 51 percent from the field and 73 percent from the free-throw line while playing at Vincennes University in Vincennes, Ind. He scored a career-high 28 points in his first junior college game, a 73-53 win for the Vincennes Blazers over Roane State, and he ended up leading the team in scoring six times as the team went 18-13 on the year.
Raney is a 6-foot-4, 180-pound guard that joins the Canisius program after playing at Navarro College in Corsicana, Texas. He averaged 3.7 points and 1.7 rebounds per game as the Bulldogs finished the 2011-12 season with a 25-11 overall record, a Region XIV tournament championship and a berth into the 2012 NJCAA National Tournament.
Baron also announced that Sean Ezeamama and Tyler Funk have chosen to leave Canisius to pursue academic opportunities at another institution.The 2012-13 season will mark Canisius' first year under Baron, who was named the program's 23rd head coach April 3, 2012 after he spent the previous 11 seasons at the helm of the Rhode Island program. The Griffs return six letterwinners and three starters from last year's roster.


text: Great post, April! I think it's so easy for hospitals to fall into the traps you mention. Less is often more -we so often think we are considering the perspective of the patient, then we ruin it by packaging it our own way, and then wonder why we didn't achieve the engagement results we were expecting.

Thu. October 10, 2013 | Mary Kenney
ZEPHYRHILLS — The trio gathered in the end zone. The players bowed their heads, thanking God and asking for a little help in the preseason game against Land O'Lakes.
It was their first time praying together, but now they say the same prayer every Friday night. It has become part of a game-day ritual that, for Jaylen Pickett, includes a pair of orange-striped black socks, a swig of Pedialyte and at least 13 family members — his father, stepmother and 11 siblings — in the stands.
The Picketts have a long history at Zephyrhills. Jaylen is the son of Damien Pickett, a former receiver/defensive back for the Bulldogs and Tampa Bay Times' North Suncoast player of the year in 1995. His family has sent men to the NFL and the Miami Hurricanes, and now they're cheering for him.
Bulldogs coach Reggie Roberts said Pickett shows rare flexibility and can line up at running back, wide receiver or defensive back. The 6-foot, 185-pound athlete has 331 all-purpose yards through five games after a sophomore season with 543.
"I hate using the words 'most improved' because that implies he was bad. He's good," Roberts said. "And he's getting better."
Pickett has had much to prove since his freshman year. He wasn't made a starter just because of his football bloodlines. His first game was also his tryout.
Coaches told him he would play varsity against Central in the 2011 preseason classic. How he performed would determine where he played — junior varsity or varsity — for the year.
Pickett asked seniors for advice. He prayed before the game and swallowed his nervousness. His family was in the stands, but he was ready. He had been playing in front of them his entire life.
He wasn't perfect in that game or that season, but he was athletic and Roberts put him on varsity.
Standing on the sideline before practice Wednesday, Pickett said he hasn't lived up to the example of his father and uncles. Not yet. As a junior, though, he still has time to reach that bar.
"Hopefully," he added with a grin that showed off pink braces.
Roberts, while agreeing with his assessment, also acknowledged Pickett has greatly improved his speed and running back skills.
"He could get to great," Roberts said as he watched Pickett jog to the end zone for a warmup.
A couple hours into practice Pickett was a quiet presence on the field. He didn't call out plays or shout for teammates to join a huddle. He stood to the side then took his place without a word.
His silence masks the fact that players look to him as a role model. The players he prays with before each game, Quinton Foster and Jackie Tucker, said they see him as an example of success both academically and on the field. Tucker, an only child, said he has adopted Pickett as an older brother figure.
"I just appreciate what I can learn from him," Tucker said. "In everything."
Pickett's stats don't tell the whole story — how his teammates look to him for guidance, how deep the football talent runs in his family.
Perhaps more importantly, they don't always show that Pickett is constantly improving.
"I think he's being under-recruited now," said Roberts, watching Pickett run. "But by the end of the season, that'll change."

This was a red flag. That's maybe all it was, but that's what it was. Life-of-the-party Johnny Manziel was sent home from the prestigious Manning Passing Academy recently because he didn't wake up in time to fulfill his role as counselor. Was he hung over? Simply exhausted? Still drunk from the previous night?
We don't know that. But I do know this: It was a red flag.
And it was the first red flag of this Summer of Johnny. Let's be clear about that. None of the stuff that came after the Heisman -- but before the premature departure from the Manning camp -- was a problem. Not to me, anyway. The night at the casino with a fistful of money. The night at the night club with a fistful of champagne. The Drake concert in Toronto. The trip to Cabo San Lucas. The classes online.
Red flags? None of that, no. But what happened at the Manning camp -- whatever happened -- was one.
My guess is, Texas A&M knows it and is scared to death. The school isn't going to tell us that, obviously. Manziel is more than a student, protected by privacy laws and that sort of thing. He's also the Aggies' golden goose, the single most important person on a campus of 50,000 students and thousands of faculty and staff. More important than football coach Kevin Sumlin? At the moment, yes. More important than the chancellor of Texas A&M, whoever that is? Absolutely.
Texas A&M survived before he arrived and it will survive after he's gone, but Manziel -- his ability to play football, the charisma with which he plays it -- has pumped tens of millions of dollars into the school. The Heisman. The award ceremonies. The appearances on Letterman and Leno. That stuff is priceless, and it's all Johnny. He had help, but it happened because he's that good. And it was all for Texas A&M.
So it's like I said: Texas A&M isn't going to make a big deal about whatever happened at the Manning camp. But that was a big deal, and I can explain why in one sentence: His partying, or whatever we're going to call it, got in the way of his daily responsibilities.
I'm not saying Manziel has a drinking problem. Not directly, not indirectly, not at all. The facts as we know them have never covered what exactly Manziel does when he's out having a good time. We just know, he's out a lot. Having a Herculean good time. It had never been a problem until now, but now happened. So here we are.
As he told CBS Sports' Tracy Wolfson on Wednesday during SEC media days, Johnny Manziel's motto is, "Work hard, play hard."
No, really. That's what Manziel blurted out when Wolfson asked him for his motto. He followed that up with a quick, "Nah, I'm kidding," but, um, no he wasn't. He does work hard. He does play hard. That is his motto.
And as Manziel reminded everybody Wednesday, over and over and over, he's 20. College kids like to have a good time, and Manziel is a college kid. Do the math.
"I'm still 20 years old," he said. "I'm still a sophomore in college. I'm still going to do things that everybody in college does and I'm going to continue to enjoy my life. Hopefully, people don't hold me to a higher standard than that."
But here's the thing: We do hold him to a higher standard -- because he's not a typical 20-year-old, or a typical 20-year-old college football player, or even a typical 20-year-old college football star.
He's Johnny Football, for God's sake. Heisman winner. Face of college football. Fulcrum upon which the $70 million Texas A&M athletic department teeters.
Manziel says people shouldn't "hold me to a higher standard," while enjoying life at a higher standard. He does win the Heisman and meet Leno and Letterman. He does hang with Drake, chat with LeBron, date a model and party in Cabo. All of which is fine and dandy. Am I envious? Oh hell yes, I'm envious. Not bitter, don't be stupid. But envious as the day is long -- as are most of you, I would imagine.
Johnny Football has a great life and he has earned it, but for him to want to (A) cash in on his fame to the fullest while (B) not being held to a higher standard is (C) absurd. It's Immaturity 101.
But we knew that. Last month Manziel showed his age -- he's only 20, you know -- when he issued the tweet heard 'round the world, saying he "can't wait to leave College Station." He quickly erased that silly tweet and replaced it with one that was even sillier:
"Don't ever forget that I love A&M with all of my heart," he tweeted, "but please please walk a day in my shoes."
Millions of young men would walk across hot coals to walk a day in his shoes, but let's get back to the way he left the Manning camp early, his explanation for it, and what it all means. And what I see -- and this is from a Manziel devotee, as I am, someone who will continue to tweet out Manziel factoids or video clips with the word "swoon" -- is a young man who partied his way right out of the camp, is denying that's what happened and expects us to believe he walked out on such a major obligation because he chose to. Because he was tired. And because his cell phone died. And the alarm clock wasn't set. And nobody knocked on his door.
"Exhausted," is how Manziel described himself earlier this week.
But not too exhausted to travel from College Station to Hoover, Ala., a few days later to spend hours with the media. Not too exhausted to fly that same night from Alabama to Los Angeles for the ESPYs. He wasn't too tired to make the rounds at NBA games or the Drake concert or Cabo or Mardi Gras or anything else. If there's fun to be had, Johnny Manziel is alert and refreshed and ready to go.
If there's a football obligation to be met, well, sorry. Johnny Manziel is tired.
"I'm 20," Manziel reminds us.
Then stop acting 14.

A Cappella music is a hot commodity right now.
Boulder band Face, and TV's "Glee" and "The Sing-Off" are bringing the vocal genre to mainstream America. And, Boulder's loving it.
That's why the Boulder Theater's Apr. 6 show with Straight No Chaser sold out in record time — and a new show was added for Apr. 5.
Straight No Chaser formed in college, but the a cappella group just scored a record deal with Atlantic. The band became a huge hit on YouTube and started drawing national attention.
Now, Boulder's ready to get its Straight No Chaser fix on Apr. 5-6.

SPD: Mom abandons 7-year-old son at S. Jackson Nickelsville camp
According to Seattle Police, a 7-year-old boy is under Child Protective Services custody after his mother abandoned him at the newly-formed Nickelsville homeless camp on the 2000 block of S. Jackson St.
Police responded to the camp around 8:30 p.m. on Sept. 23 after reports came in of the child wandering through the camp, soaked by rain, according to Det. Renee Witt.
Campers told police the boy had been abandoned by his mother, who was nowhere to be found. The child said he had no idea when his mom would return.
The child told police he hadn't eaten since breakfast, so police took him to McDonald's for dinner while they waited for CPS to arrive, Witt said.
No arrests have been made.
Nickelsville's former site in the Highland Park neighborhood of West Seattle was dismantled on Sept. 1 after Seattle's City Council deemed that the move-out deadline for campers illegally squatting there.
Over 100 homeless campers who called the plot of land on W. Marginal Way S. home for over two years split up and moved to three new sites including the S. Jackson location mentioned above, and two others on Martin Luther King Jr. Way S.and 21st Ave.

Soliman stops Piper
By Ray Wheatley — World of Boxing
World middleweight contender Sam Soliman (37-11, 15 KOs) was impressive in stopping Australian super middleweight champion Les Piper (10-3-3, 2 KOs) in seven rounds on Sunday at the Penisula, Docklands, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Soliman controlled the action over his aggressive opponent by outworking him most of the rounds. In round seven Piper was dropped twice by hard body shots at which point referee Ignatius Missailidis crowned the Melbourne boxer. IBF #14 Soliman targeted the best middleweights in the world. "I am after the IBF middleweight champion Sebastian Sylvester who I regard as a good champion but he does not have the skills or the experience against the top level middleweights to defeat me. I am prepared to go fight him in Germany and I will beat him easy."
In the main supporting bout. WBO #14 140-pounder Lance Gostelow (20-2, 14 KOs) outscored Fatai Onikeke (23-4, 20 KOs) over twelve rounds. Scores were 120-108, 119-109, 120-108. Onikeke was the aggressor but he was outworked by Gostelow who connected with effective combinations boxing on the backmove. Former IBF jr lightweight champion Barry Michael said. "Lance Gostelow is the best boxer in Australia in my opinion."
In a super middleweight six-rounder, formerly world rated Daniel "Porky" Lovett (18-4, 10 KOs) scored a split decision over Kashif Mumtaz (5-11-1, 4 KOs) in a crowd pleaser.
WBO #15 welterweight Samuel Colomban (14-3, 6 KOs) outworked Rey Anton Olarte (8-12-2, 0 KOs) of the Philippines in an action fight over six. Promoter: Brian Amatruda and Barry Michael

Well it's a good thing that Republicans took a look at the polls. It's inaccurate that N.C. children rank 48th in per pupil spending. The Society for a Better Educated Public ranks N.C. 3rd in the nation in spending per pupil. The fact that public schools in a county are the leading source of employment says a lot about the state of the economy. While education is needed and no one argues that point, where are the jobs? I guess we can blame the Republicans because for over 100 years they have been in power. No wait, it has been the control of those now Gerrymandered Democrats. You mean the Democrats have had control of this state for over 100 years with only a slight minor exception of a few years, and our employment picture is one of the fifth worst in the nation. Democrats had better look at something besides polls.

Top Traveller Review
An excellent apartment with great customer care
The area is a good location for a family, with a huge variety of beaches within 5 to 15 minutes driving distance. Be aware that the sea can be cold, although that didn't deter our children!. There are surfing schools at the Praia de' Esteiro and Praia San Roman. There are several good restaurants, but the one we liked the best is the Hotel Semaforo de Bares (on a headland which is the most northerly point in Spain)where the food is very good and two of the staff speak English. Our favourite was the Paella Marisco, but you do need to order it in advance (it takes more than an hour to cook). Directions to the beaches and descriptions of the restaurants are all in the "welcome pack" which is emailed to you and available in the apartment.
We can thoroughly recommend the area, the apartment and the attention to customer service shown by Siusan (the owner). Truly a 5-star service.

An excellent apartment with great customer care
We arrived quite late at night (approx 11pm) and the arrangements for getting the key worked well. The apartment has plenty of space for a family and the two bathrooms are a godsend! All the facilities are as described and our two weeks stay went very well. We enjoyed total privacy during our stay, but support and help was available via email and phone if needed. We had a small problem with the Wi-Fi, which was put right quickly and with a great deal of attention to customer service by the owner. I cannot praise her too highly for doing all that she could to make our stay enjoyable and resolve any problems, however small.

Impressive. Really enjoyed our stay.
Modern, clean and well equipped apartment. Great location for beach access. Really enjoyed our stay.
A very spacious and comfortable apartment in a quiet and well-kept block
The apartment is clean, bright, comfortable and well-equipped. The living area and all 3 bedrooms are spacious, and the kitchen and bathrooms are more cramped but well-appointed. In early June, few of the other apartments were in use, so the block was very quiet, but the public areas were very well-maintained. We regretted not having a balcony or other outside sitting space, and the fact that all the windows face inland although the beautiful bay is just a few meters away - but we knew that before we arrived, the inland view is open and interesting, and the apartment was excellent value for money. Siusan showered us with information before we travelled and was speedy and thorough in response to messages. O Vicedo is a delightful and friendly village, with enough shops to meet all basic needs (and an excellent stationery/book shop), easy access to the FEVE coastal train service and to a host of glorious unspoiled beaches and clifftops, and an unpretentious but superb bar/restaurant on the quayside. We hardly ever holiday in the same place twice, but have recommended this apartment to family and friends.
Very well equipped clean and spacious property.
The property is very nice, lots of room and very comfortable. Highly recommend it.
Easy parking directly outside and lift to all floors.
You need a car to explore the area, we drove out to see some great coastlines.
Town itself is a little limited in choice for shops and restaurants but still has all you need.
Give apartment 5 stars, town 3 stars.
It's worth it !
All in all, we had a lovely stay in Galicia.
The apartment is very well-equiped and maintained. It was far enough space for us (4 adults, 1 child) and the small city of O Vicedo seems very authentic, though not very turistic.
There is the 'Casa de la cultura' right around the corner, where you can get free wifi, good and very cheap drinks and tapas.
By car or by foot you can explore the surroundings, plenty of small beaches with high water quality and if you look a little bit around you find some interesting activities, such as going by Kajak (ESTACA in O Barqueiro), surfing (surf scool Oxígeno in Viveiro/ beach Esterio) or go shopping in A Coruña, which is 1,5hours away. But don`t expect to be surrounded by tourist sites - its a rura surrounding and you have to search for yuorsef. But be patiant, it's worth it!
You can get fresh and very good seafood nearly everywhere (e.g. the restaurant los árboles at the Xilloi Beach).
Enjoy your stay ;)
Sitio ideal para vacaciones
Tuvimos una estadía excelente. El apartamento está perfectamente equipado con todo lo que uno necesita. Muy limpio y en buen estado. Se ve que es nuevo y eso da gusto. Lo recomendamos a todos.
Activity and Interests
O Vicedo is a perfect place from which to explore the beautiful and unspoilt north-western coast of Spain, known for its fishing villages, scores of clean, sandy beaches, wild horses, and delicious seafood. Three sandy coves and two long beaches of white sand are within easy walking distance (5 - 15 mins). Spectacular views of the coastline can be seen from the lighthouses located at northernmost point of Spain, only 15 minutes away, and from walks along the cliff tops. Another wonderful place to walk is along the wooded banks of the River Sor, and miles of quiet country roads through fields and eucalyptus trees are ideal for walking or biking. Kayaks may be rented locally for use on the river, the bay, or the sea. The picturesque medieval town of Viveiro with its steep pedestrian streets has many amenities and is also a beautiful place to explore. Recommended longer day trips include the beautiful pilgrimage city of Santiago de Compostela and the Ribeira Sacra and Ribeiro wine regions
Other Activities: fishing, canoeing, kayaking

Contentment. Happiness. Being truly comfortable inside your own skin. Love. Family. Friends. All these things and more make up a well-rounded, happy person's life. How do we gain this illusive dream?
I was thinking about this as in most job interviews, they ask you the usual question: "Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" I've also been asked the question: "Imagine if you could have or be anything, within reason, what does that image look like for you?
I'm not sure if I'm going through an early mid-life crisis or not, but this has been on my mind a lot lately. What do I picture, when I think about myself COMPLETELY contented?
Is it this?
No, I'm not fond of sailing. He does look happy, though. I have a friend who has a small boat, does that count?
How about the following:
Having a pet, who you love is very important (IMO), especially if you don't have kids. I haven't had a cat in 6 years, maybe it's time to try out a little doggy?
No, it definitely looks something more like:
This is the single most important thing to me right now. I don't care about cars, boats or a pile of money. I am looking for a meaningful relationship. My clock may be ticking! I want to start a family and I don't want to be old when my kid(s) are teens. My dad was 64 when I was born and well, that didn't turn out so well. I am not that old yet, (I only feel it:p) but I think I should get my shit together and get things rolling. I have joined a couple of clubs and hope to meet someone interesting. Friends are just as important. Any tips for me as I embark on this journey??

"Marriage is for White People"—The Decline of Marriage among African Americans
"Marriage is for white people." That's what Joy Jones was told when she was teaching a career exploration class for sixth-graders at an elementary school in the nation's capital. As a matter of fact, more than one student offered Jones this retort when she spoke of marriage and parenthood. In his Commentary today, Dr. Albert Mohler wonders what could have brought a young boy to have such a view of marriage.

We just finished our move to the area and we were facing the weekend, so we celebrated by first ordering a half-pitcher of margaritas and that was enough to get our evening swirling. We browsed the menu and found many tasty-looking items and decided on two soft tacos, one chicken and one beef, and one Tacos Al Carbon entrée. This entrée comes with two fajitas, pico de gallo, guacamole, and a side of rice.
The wait was quite pleasant though I suspect the margaritas had a factor in our enjoyment of sitting outside in this heat. But I tell you this, strong and tasty margaritas, complimentary chips and salsa, having the whole weekend ahead of me, and chatting and giggling with the best person I've ever met made this moment one I'll never forget.
Anyway, back to the food. My fiancée started with the tacos and I started with the Tacos Al Carbon. When our orders arrived, I snapped a few pictures of the untouched food, then we dug in. We were both impressed with the size of my fiancée's soft tacos. If you are really dining on a shoe-string budget, order a couple of these – two are definitely suitable for a normal-sized appetite. The Tacos Al Carbon were amazing, especially the beef. I loved the thick, juicy strips of beef, topped with the cool pico de gallo and a swath of creamy guacamole. The chicken was also thick and juicy, but I preferred the beef. Next time, I'm doubling down on the beef. After we finished half our meals, we switched. The meat of the soft tacos was minced, not cut into strips. The beef was good, but awfully greasy with reddish orange grease dripping from it as you ate. The chicken had no such problem and was the preferred soft taco.
Will we go again? Yes, probably tomorrow as the first kick-off to my birthday weekend. Speaking of which, I'm sure this weekend will bring a few food blog worthy experiences.

Patrick Wolf
Brumalia EP
US: 27 Dec 2011
UK: 5 Dec 2011
Look beyond the formidable singing voice and healthy interest in idiosyncratic instruments and you will find a preciousness about Patrick Wolf that is potentially off-putting. Strangely, this affliction has become more overt as Wolf's career has progressed. More recent releases have foregone the intrigue of 2005's Wind in the Wires for a more show-boating atmosphere, one that nearly caused 2009's The Bachelor and 2011's Lupercalia to burst at the seams. There is something of a lagging magician about Wolf. For all the (literal) bells and whistles in his music, it sometimes feels as though all his tricks are festooning his sleeves. Even on a pithier release like his most recent EP, Brumalia, the overarching theme is one of excess.
Lupercalia did surprise in some ways, particularly in its very conspicuous grasp for mainstream success. Gone were audacious costumes and big concept releases featuring an underused Tilda Swinton. Lupercalia was all big love sounds. It even featured a music video that could have easily doubled as an Abercrombie and Fitch ad. Wolf has talents aplenty, but he also really, really wants to be famous. So, also gone is the Kate Bush-inspired vocal unpredictability (Wild Beasts' Hayden Thorpe does a far greater job at this, anyway), the paeans to the more naturalistic side of life. Wolf's concerns on Brumalia are less lovey-dovey than its full-length predecessor, but they are also more political. Bringing headier subjects to the table is all well and good, but an artist may want to take care to make his political statements a bit more thought-provoking.
In recent years, Wolf's lyrics have sadly become a bit overwrought. The loose grasp on political themes displayed on The Bachelor has yet to tighten. This is a cause for pity, as Wolf's lyrics detract from the richness of his voice. "Time of Year" nearly succeeds at being what it is on the surface: a sweet winter song featuring horns that recall The Magic Position's jubilant "Get Lost." On closer inspection, the heavy-handed anti-war assertions speckled throughout work wonders in tarnishing the song's gleam. "Nemoralia", which takes its name from a Roman festival known as the "Festival of Torches", offers even fewer charms. Wolf strives to provide adequate commentary on last summer's London riots, but instead produces a cluttered, clattery dirge from which emotion or insight feels largely absent.
Brumalia shares a song with Lupercalia in "Together", one of the stronger moments on both releases. The song is spirited and relatable enough that not even platitudes such as "true love knows no sacrifice" can hamper it. The electro backing on the verses—for once—feels unobtrusive. "Jerusalem" is a gentle adaptation of the William Blake poem of the same name, while "Pelicans", despite not being as touching, is notable for being composed on an iPad. As with all Wolf releases, there is joy to be had, but on Brumalia it is present in far smaller doses.
The title Brumalia is derived from another Roman festival, this one honoring the god Bacchus in a tribute to merriment. Taking its name after something related to a god known for excess is all too fitting here. Wolf clearly loves creating music and can be very good at it, but sacrificing a few extraneous ideas for a bit of restraint seems irreconcilable for now.

TXR Press Release regarding the Parker 425...
Team Xterra Racing - pushing it till there is no more left to give!!!
Parker 425 was a huge success! We were able to hang with the big boys for a full lap and then some. Finishing a total of 150 miles of this treacherous race, TXR would be among the other 114 that DNFed (217 starters). Needless to say, Parker ate up a bunch of racers.
What went right: TXR did everything to show that its commitment to Nissan, TXR Sponsors and fans was and will continue to be our first priority.
The race would not be a cakewalk, losing all braking control for 7 miles (that was fixed by Team Donahue Racing, Thanks guys!!!) and then immediately after pulling out of the pits with mechanical troubles with the rear axle, the team made all efforts to weld the broken parts and continue to race. With a limping 3 wheel drive racer and a whooped out course it would only be a matter of time for end would come; the passion for continueing on, however, never faded. The team stuck together and pushed all of its supporters until the battle was over.
TXR's excitement and pursuit of the Class 3100 title is still the goal, currently in 3rd place with 38 points, 3 points behind 2nd and 37 points behind the leader. One win, one mind, one Team! TXR!
TXR is sponsored by several large entities. Nissan, Nismo, Fox Shocks, PIAA, National Springs, DJ Safety, Speedhut, EVCO, Double D Bolt and CWI Hosting.
It is because of great sponsors, Xterraracer is able compete on this level. We thank our sponsors!
We invite you to continue to follow TXR. Watch for more exciting coverage on our forum; additionally follow us live on IriTrack at Race the World's website for all Best in the Desert races...
Just remember one thing: You can either make dust or eat dust, we hope you are hungry!

Calif. officers' stun gun use faces new scrutiny after federal ruling
By Sean Webby
San Jose Mercury News
SAN JOSE, Calif. — An appeals court ruling this week limiting the police use of TASERs may have special importance in San Jose, where every police officer is armed with the stun gun and where their use in a series of situations has raised controversy.
In its ruling, the Ninth District U.S. Court of Appeals stated that the stun guns should only be used under limited conditions, since they represent a more serious use of force than other nonlethal police weapons.

George Harrison Statue Nixed By Widow
A plan to build a statue in the memory of The Beatles' George Harrison will not be supported by his widow, Olivia Harrison. James Lambert, a resident of Henley-on-Thames where Harrison lived from the 1970s until his death in 2011, initiated the plan last year. He tells the BBC:
"He really is an icon in Henley. It seems strange that nothing has been created to acknowledge his presence and the work that he did for the town."
But, Olivia Harrison is not on board. While George's widow is on board with the idea of a tribute to her late husband, she's not in favor a statue. She tells theDaily Mirror:
"After many years of thoughtful consideration, and with great appreciation of the sentiment towards George, we have decided that a more appropriate way of honouring his memory in Henley would be to support a community project. We will announce the details in the summer."

Trade flourishes as Syria befriends old foe Turkey
By Khaled Yacoub Oweis
ALEPPO, Syria (Reuters) - Turkish delicacies are unashamedly on display in Syria's culinary capital. Aleppo merchants are switching to imports from Turkey, and buses ferry shoppers to an upscale mall across the border.
A warming of once-chilly Turkish-Syrian ties has unleashed a one-way trade boom. A trade deal activated two years ago has cut tariffs and reduced smuggling. Visa requirements were abolished.
Turkey's popularity in Syria soared after an Israeli raid on Gaza-bound aid ships in which nine Turks were killed on May 31.
"Turkey now has a stake in the Palestinian cause, and Syria stands to gain," a diplomat said. "It will be more difficult for Israel to launch any military action against Syria."
The furor over the flotilla interception has also deflected attention from Israeli and U.S. pressure on Damascus over its alleged arms supplies to the Lebanese Shi'ite Hezbollah group.
Syrians have traditionally looked askance at their powerful northern neighbor, which ruled them during the Ottoman Empire, but many are now seeing secular Muslim Turkey, a NATO member with an Islamist-leaning government, in a new light.
"It's time to shed the stigma we have had about Turkey. They're no longer Ottoman, but a development model for the Arab East," said Abdelqader al-Deiri, a Syrian businessman who now buys restaurant equipment from Turkey instead of Europe.
"Transport costs are lower, but Turkish goods do not compete on price alone. They make high quality," added Deiri, who often vacations in Turkey. His eight-year-old son is learning Turkish. Continued...
