Golden scenes from the London 2012 Olympics and Paralympics are shaping Channel 4's alternative Christmas message.
Delivered by the Australian comedian Adam Hills, the Christmas cheer recalls sporting glory from the summer - but also comes with a little political bite.
It is also just a little bit tongue in cheek.
Channel 4's tagline to promote over 500 hours of Paralympic coverage was Meet the Superhumans.
The aim has been to try and challenge perceptions of what athletes with a disability can achieve.
Hills, who was part of Channel 4's presenting line-up as the host broadcaster for the London 2012 Paralympics, said:
"And somewhere, just slightly, perceptions had shifted
"As people appreciate what they've been gifted
"And right round the world new voices were boomin
"Don't call us disabled, we're now Superhuman
"But let's not forget there's a long way to go
"To support Disability, cos as we all know
"Some politicians we don't care to mention
"Were handing out medals while cutting the pension."
More than 11 million people watched the opening ceremony of the Paralympic Games on Channel 4.

One Man's Poison, Scene #02
- : 01/01/2007 |
- : 18:29 min |
- : 2228
Scene Info
Joey Stefano reenacts his famous solo performance on stage for a mysterious figure sitting alone in the audience. The spotlight makes his famous round, muscular ass glow as he fingers it, staring seductively at the camera. Living up to his reputation for serious dildo action, Stefano pulls out a nice 8-incher and rides it, soon replacing it with a much fatter, heftier 9+. The look on his face turns serious as he repeatedly pulls the dildo completely out of his ass and shoves it back in again. All of the teasing from the stage is having quite an effect on the mysterious audience member who reveals a huge, fat cock that can only belong to Tony Hampton. Stefano invites Hampton to the stage and eagerly swallows his big fat cock with his hungry hole. Stefano blows a load, but Hampton has just begun, flipping Stefano over and fucking his throat. Joey slurps on Tony's fat nut sack until he shoots all over Joey's chest and stomach.

Thanks everyone! It's been an awesome past couple of months where I've gotten more and more opportunities to see that I may be able to turn my audio production into a career if I keep at it. Licensing especially has been a god-send I must say with audiojungle essentially getting me kick-started on actually having an income from creative engineering. Evil-dog is also a fantastic game developer and programmer who used to work for Ubisoft on games like Rainbow Six and Fable. Here are a couple more examples of his work:
Road of the Dead (features my "Scary Piano" sample at the intro blurb)
Z-Rox (features my song "Awesome" as a loop through-out gameplay)
I played it yesterday a bit. Funny game, good music.
Congrats, it's a really cool achievement

Nice work Next step, Gears Of War 3
Haha, that would be pretty slick. I could quit my day job then.
Nice work. man. Congrats!

Hello Everyone,
It has been quite awhile since I have posted any kills, but around where I live there are either super super fast cars or ricer honda's with no balls so it is hard to find a good race.
Footnotes at bottom:
After a movie I saw a highschool friend and we decided to do a few runs on the highway. He has an 01 Celica GTS with a T3/T4 turbo, frount mount, running I am pretty sure 5 or 6 lbs of boost. His car was very quick on the highway. We started at about 50 mph the first time b/c I could not get him to go any slower, we got on it and you could tell the turbo was a little big for his motor b/c he had lag. I was about 1/2 a car infront of him until about 100 and after that I was pulling away. He gave up at about 120. The second run was from about 60 and he was more in his turbo's range and it was closer, but I won by about 1 car.
On the way home though, We both ended up next to each other at the light, and ever since I got my new transmission, I promised myself no launches on it. . . Well I just had to. HAHA! It was murder. As soon as it was green I just crushed him. I forgot how AWESOME a real launch in an AWD car really is. Such a rush.
Cobb 2.5 WRX VF34 > 01 Celica GTS t3/t4 turbo kit.

lease difference is ~$1500 vs ~$900.
so even though we want the 4S, we cannot justify the added cost, thus the flip flopping and wanking.
we love it that you guys are here to slap us around and keep our senses intact...
in the end the 550xi is the better value and will fulfill the same duties. if i want to go really fast or turn super hard i go to the track in my gt3. the sedan is for running the kids around and getting groceries and and laying down rub around town with 500 dinan assisted ponies.
The F10 5 series has become an all-arounder, and this has been done on purpose to serve many people. It's just good business practice. You lose a few hard core guys but gain a massive amount of new support from people who now see the 5 as a go anywhere, do anything car.
From what I've read - mind you I have NOT test driven one yet - it seems the F10 does many things well, but perhaps nothing 'great'. The fact that I can have a 500 hp (Dinan S1), AWD, 4 door, year round luxury sport sedan - for < $70k - fills just about every need for me (except the utility of a pick up truck!). We all need to make sacrifices...somewhere. I'd love to have a pickup, an SUV, a Lotus, an M3, a 550 and a 750 but that's not going to happen.
I loved my E60 550i very much, but it left me needing a second vehicle in the winter. Not the case anymore. If that means a bit of a sacrifice in handling, no problem. Put it all into perspective, the perfect car is
out there.

When in doubt, find row zed.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Hello everybody. I started a zine distro about 2 months ago (Zinemonger). As the distro only stocks free zines I thought I'd be inundated with orders but in fact trade's been a bit sluggish. I've sent out a few flyers. I've also posted quite often in places like LJ and Photocopy Heart but am wary of overdoing that and irritating people. Any tips for boosting the profile of my distro?

There was a chill in the air when I came out from below and onto the deck of the Warwick Beacon. I stood at the mast alone for a long time and watched soft white mist swirl on the surface of the water. It's easy to lose track of time on a long voyage, so it's hard to say how long I stood there before hearing the sound of footsteps approaching on the old wooden deck.
"You look well this morning, Alexa."
It was Roland, arriving from the bridge to bring me my morning cup of tea. He was always up first – before Yipes or I could imagine raising so much as an eye-brow – and there was always hot tea to be had from the captain of the Warwick Beacon. It was one of his very few but frequent indulgences. The tea steamed in the morning light, and we stood at the rail, no land in sight, the sails catching a lazy breeze. The cup was warm in my hand, a comfort against the cold beginning of a new day on the Lonely Sea.
"Where are we going…and when will we get there?"
I had asked both of these questions many times before, and I'd always received a nod and a wink but no answer. It had become our morning routine. Roland had long seemed unable or unwilling to share the answers with me, and in this way the day seemed to begin like all the others. Only there was something different his time.
The questions I'd asked hung in the air. He didn't nod or wink or speak, and this made me wonder if the time had come for him to tell me where we were going and when we would arrive.
"We've been out here a long while, haven't we, Alexa?" he began.
"We have," I answered.
"And every morning you ask me the same two questions and get the same response."
I nodded and winked, bringing a smile to my old friend's face.
"I'm all out of nods and winks," said Roland, sipping at his tea. "When Yipes awakens, come find me at the wheel. I'll tell you where we're going. Though you should be warned – it's not a quick or simple thing to share. It will take some time to tell the whole truth."
I handed my teacup back to Roland and raced across the deck to the door leading below. As soon as I threw it open, I began yelling for Yipes and bounding down the steps in search of his tiny hammock. The light from the open door poured into the darkened cabin, but Yipes didn't notice. This didn't surprise me – I had long been certain that if we found ourselves under attack by a loud and angry monster, Yipes would sleep through the entire affair."Yipes! Wake up! Roland is going to tell us where we're going!"

The Captain and crew of an 893-foot containership belonging to the Jones Act carrier Horizon Lines became instant heros early Wednesday morning after rescuing a family from their sinking vessel in the Pacific Ocean.
At approximately 1:30am on Wednesday, the U.S.-flagged Jones Act containership, Horizon Reliance, was alerted by Coast Guard that a family of 3, including a nine-year old boy, was adrift on their 33-foot sailboat with no power and sails shredded. At the time, the vessel was on a rather routine journey carrying U.S. goods between Hawaii and the West Coast. But just 149 miles away, the Captain of the Horizon Reliance, Captain James Keller, answered the call and quickly diverted his vessel to the stranded sailors.
Conditions were heavy with 40 knot winds, sea swells in the 20-ft. range, and stinging rain. Not exactly favorable for a high-seas rescue. As they approached, a large wave capsized the vessel, throwing the men and boy into the water. ... Read More

I have my Chronosport UDT for sale right now on eBay. I originally purchased it 1986. I saw the watch on GQ I think. I lived in NY and drove to CT and got it at a dive shop. That shop in CT actually serviced it for me when I lived there. They were using Chronoserv I think. I've been gentle with the watch because it was my only nice watch. I don't spend lots of money on watches nor jewelry so I took good care of it.
Please check it out on eBay of you are interested. The auction ends Apr 24, 2013

About Me
After years of shooting purely for fun, my wife and I decided to start Smoot Photography just over 11 years ago now. We have been very successful shooting wedding, commercial, portrait, product, and other event photography and we've also dabbled in the modeling scene along the way!
We are both very flexible and enjoy shooting many styles of photographs depending on what our clients need. We hope to find more models and MUAs to work with and learn a thing or two from other photographers on this site. We're always excited to work with creative people with fresh ideas.
If you would like to schedule a session or just ask us a question, feel free to give us a call at 336.418.0154.
**We understand that some of you make your living modeling and are absolutely worth every cent you charge, but please do not contact us if you are looking for paid work only. We only hire models when one of our clients shoots requires a model, in which case we will post a casting call.**
Come see more of our work on our website http://www.smootphotography.com. Check it out and let us know what you think! And of course you can always become a fan on Facebook @ http://www.facebook.com/pages/Triad-Are … 370?ref=nf .

Enterprise social networks for a better way of working
The rapid uptake of email and the growth of mobile devices has delivered anytime, anywhere access: enabling truly global enterprises to interact with their employees, partners and customers in near real-time. Social media has created online communities linking people regardless of location or time zone. For a generation brought up with these technologies the idea of a workplace without them is unthinkable – and the same is happening now with enterprise social collaboration.
Your journey to social collaboration, enabled by Atos
In most businesses there is no single platform that delivers multiple methods of collaborating, sharing and managing projects and workflow, making it necessary to carefully assess the needs of the business and determine the most effective route towards further integration. Our approach enables us to help you based on our practical experiences of the challenges and obstacles we needed to overcome in a real, working environment.
Once we have established a clear view of your business we then start to define a roadmap that will move you towards a fully enabled collaborative environment at a pace that suits the needs and expectations of your business.
Getting this pace right is critical to the success of the project: moving too fast will lose the support of your employees whilst moving too slowly will lead to disillusionment as they fail to see the benefits of the new system quickly enough.
Choosing the right technology
Every collaborative solution requires the careful integration of different technologies to create the right landscape for the individual business. This includes a range of different applications that go far beyond communication and social networking tools to include content management, process handling, resource planning, analysis, interpretation and reporting.
It's essential to ensure that these applications are carefully integrated to create a seamless social platform rather than simply implement a series of disconnected and unstructured communication and resource management solutions.
Atos working smarter with blueKiwi
At Atos we chose blueKiwi Software to help us on our journey to social collaboration, and we are happy to demonstrate today how they help over 60,000 employees in 4,000 active communities across 47 countries collaborate with each other daily to manage projects and workflow. blueKiwi is a leading provider of enterprise social collaboration software. Its solutions help companies of all sizes – and across industries as diverse as financial services, insurance, banking, telecommunications, utilities, retail, and consulting firms – connect with their customers through an enterprise social network. blueKiwi social networking software enables organizations to improve productivity and grow innovation through the open and collaborative sharing between internal (employee, member, or management) and external (customer, partner, or supplier) communities. blueKiwi is hosted SaaS (software on demand) with the option of a Private Cloud configuration.
The new workplace
With a collaborative environment, based on social media, the new workplace is wherever it needs to be. Mobility is the new standard and employees will be free to work where and when they are most productive. Careful management will create a much more flexible approach that better serves the work/life balance of the individual and the needs of the business.
Looking beyond email
Our Zero email™ offering is based on our own objective to eliminate internal email by the end of 2013. At Atos, we believe that Zero email™ is the best managerial concept to drive our organization to become a truly social organisation, fully adopting the technologies of the future workplace.
Based on our own experience we have created an approach that will help you transform the way employees communicate and collaborate. The offering combines our long history and expertise in consulting with international enterprises and national bodies, implementing leading-edge technologies, and running business processes in a secure environment. We work in partnership with our clients, defining their ideal 'to be' environment and crafting the building blocks of change that suit them.
Gartner Report : Atos "No Email" Initiative Provides Valuable Lessons on Driving Big Change Through Social Collaboration
Gartner has published a research note highlighting key lessons others can learn from our Zero email™ program. Describing the programme as "a big change effort" that set out to to significantly change the way employees interact across the entire organization of 76,000+ people spread through 47 countries, Gartner concludes that a cultural transformation of this kind and magnitude is very rare.
The novelty, scope and disruption of this initiative make it a "big change" effort that has significantly shifted employee interactions out of email and into social collaboration. The unique experiences and achievements of Atos provide a wealth of valuable information on the practices, investments and results associated with a big change effort to improve employee engagement through social collaboration.

suspension...what to buy????
ok , i want to replace my dampers and springs , but would only want a 1.5 inch drop . and i would like the cheapest possible combo of dampers and springs . any suggestions are welcome , thanks
The Ford Racing Performance parts kit is absolutely what you're looking for. Its a 1.5" drop front and rear with no need to get adjustable camber parts (It won't go out of spec). Its an awesome ride. Firm but not to firm, and makes it look great. All four shocks and struts can be at your door for less than $300.
and itll fit the 06-07?? do you have a link please
Sent from my N860 using FF Mobile
FRPP makes lowering struts for the 06-11. The full kit w/spings is only a .75" drop. For 1.5" drop get the FRPP struts and Eibach Pro springs.
Check Tousley here. Or Russ Milne Ford on Hall Rd and Gratiot, for the strut kit with mounts and hardware.
Subscribing! I'm looking for the same criteria. I can't go too expensive or else I'll be able to justify coilovers, and I don't need coilovers lol
Sent from my N860 using FF Mobile
00-05 struts, and springs will fit 06+ foci if an Omni kit from Massive is used. This allows for many more options.
And everyone looking just google Ford Focus FRPP suspension kit. It'll pop up.

I was raised in a church, just as my parents were. Faith and God were givens in my house. The stories of the Bible seem as old and familiar to me as any other story I heard as a child. It really has served as a foundation for who I am as a person, to believe that there is a God and that this God is good and that love and truth and justice are all values for which we seek to achieve and champion.
There's a lot I don't know about God. I think that if you were to graph my certainties about God over my lifespan it would be a steadily decreasing line, perhaps leveling out a few years ago just above the zero line. Maybe it peaked at age three or four, I'm not sure. I suppose I started forming thoughts about God around the time I could ask questions of the adults in my life. You know the kinds of questions children ask: "Where does God live? What does he look like? Has anyone ever heard him talk?" Children are concrete thinkers, and we talk to children in concrete terms. Which is crazy when it comes to issues of faith, although it's amazing how many adults still think about faith in concrete and literal terms.
I worry sometimes about that, about we are setting up our daughter to be disappointed when it comes to God. We give children concrete answers to their questions because anything less feels like an evasion. "God lives in heaven. He looks very kind and old. You can hear him talk, but you kind of hear it in your heart." One of the first things I learned in seminary is that using masculine-gender-specific pronouns for God is wrong; not just academically wrong or theologically wrong, but morally wrong. It assumes God is male, which supports patriarchy and the oppression of women. This is true, of course. But damn, how everyone resisted this. And why? Because a) all of us grew up talking about God as "he" and "him" and "Father," and b) because we like concrete thinking and it's scary to admit that you can't talk or think concretely about something that seems of utmost importance.
Our little girl is still a little too young to be asking questions about God. We pray at dinner time, as I've written about earlier. But no theological debates have broken out in our family yet. This comes to mind for me now because this past Sunday was Sunday School Promotion Sunday for children's Sunday School classes and our little Curly Fries was promoted into the toddler Sunday School class. She has a wonderfully gifted and energetic teacher and a good class of peers. And her skills and comprehension in English are rapidly increasing. So I know it won't be long before I get a question about God from a bright, inquisitive, and extremely concrete thinker.
So when my sweet little Curly Fries asks me one day, "Daddy, what does God look like?" will I have the courage to tell her that I don't know?
Of course, that's not entirely true. I do have an idea of what God looks like. Maybe I'll say, "Well, Curly Fries, God doesn't have a face or hands like you and me. But remember what Ms. Terri and Ms. Jane or Mr. Jerry looked like when you hugged them in the hallway at church? Or what Ms. Nancy looks like when she helps you make crafts in Sunday School? Or what Ms. Caryanne looks like when she plays hide-and-seek with you in the sanctuary after the service? Or all those backpacks that we filled with school supplies in the Fellowship Hall for kids who don't have much money? Or those cans of food that we put on the altar to feed people who are hungry? Or how Pastor Mike and Pastor Lin look when someone comes forward to join the church or be baptized? You know how it looks to have everyone singing together in the chapel? Well, that's what God looks like."
I know that answer probably isn't concrete enough for a toddler. But it is really concrete to me, and I am so thankful that these concrete expressions of love will help to raise our daughter.

The Cautionary Instruction: The Eighth Amendment — a matter of human dignityFriday, 30 May 2014 06:00 AM Written by Matt Mangino
This week the U.S. Supreme Court struck down Florida's strict IQ cutoff for determining intellectual disability and in turn eligibility for the death penalty.
In a 5-4 ruling in Hall v. Florida the court concluded that Florida's rigid IQ threshold of 70 "disregards established medical practice" and creates the "unacceptable risk" that an inmate with intellectual disabilities might be executed, in violation of the Constitution.
"Our society does not consider this strict cutoff as proper or humane," Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote.
"No legitimate penological purpose is served by executing a person with intellectual disability," Kennedy wrote. "To impose the harshest of punishments on an intellectually disabled person violates his or her inherent dignity as a human being."
It is interesting that Kennedy would refer to the petitioner's inherent right of "dignity." The term is not frequently used in American jurisprudence and the term is even more difficult to find in Supreme Court opinions.

Handy 500mA adapter is a must for the work bench or tool box. Choose from multiple DC voltage outputs and multiple, right-angle DC plugs.
by curtgranger
on 4/13/2017
For a convenient, 500mA supply with several voltages, and interchangeable plugs, it's a good value at this price.
by DEN80212
on 10/22/2013
There was no paper work in the box. Since the tips were reversible for ground or positive I had to use a meter to determine what way to plug the tips in. During that process I discovered that the voltages were miss labeled. 3vdc is 5.3 and 12vdc is 19.3. Everything else is also off. I would not recommend buying it.
This is not a regulated adapter. It will only provide the correct voltage under load. The device being powered must support unregulated adapters. The voltages listed on the device are correct.

500 ma rated better then most at this price range (typically 300ma). Comes is plain white box is not good for retail. May need to order part # 28-11118 which contains 16 addtional ends to match up to certain devices.
by critter
on 5/19/2009
This is NOT a "Universal Adapter". Universal typically means the input is 100-240v 50/60hz and can be used anywhere in the world with various power sources. This is only 120v 60hz.
Smooth flawless transaction. Quality products for great prices. I compared my item to other stores before buying and was blown away by the price difference.

San Diego Scouting Report
San Diego has made 16 NCAA Tournament appearances including two Sweet 16 appearances (2004, 2006). The Toreros finished 2012 with 21-7 record and captured a share of the 2012 WCC Championship. San Diego earned an at-large bid into the 2012 NCAA Tournament where they fell to Michigan State 3-2. The Toreros notched a late-season victory over No. 13 BYU to earn a share of the conference title. San Diego also defeated Loyola Marymount, Pepperdine, Saint Mary's and Santa Clara – all who earned a berth into the NCAA Tournament.
Series: This will be the first meeting between the Miners and Toreros. The two programs will open up against each other at the 2013 Chevron Rainbow Wahine Invitational in Honolulu, Hawai'i.
Toreros Notables
Leading the charge for San Diego is Katie Hoekman, who was named first-team All-West Coast Conference. Hoekman's efforts helped the squad capture the 2012 WCC Championship title and earn an at-large bid into the NCAA Tournament. The senior led the squad in kills (294) and blocks (123). The middle blocker recorded double-digit kills in 14 matches during 2012. Hoekman finished second in the conference in hitting percentage (.389), which earned her a spot on the 2013 Preseason All-WCC Team. Chloe Ferrari produced a stellar season as she was named to the first-team All-WCC. The senior produced 237 kills, and a hitting efficiency of .367 ranking fifth in conference. She was also third on the team in total blocks (51). Ferrari also earned a spot on the 2013 Preseason All-West Coast Team. Also contributing to the squad is Alaysia Brown. The junior ranked second on the team in kills (280) and blocks (71). Her efforts earned her a spot on the All-WCC Honorable Mention team.
Texas Scouting Report
Series: Texas secured the 2012 NCAA championship title as it beat Oregon 3-0, earning the program's third national title, since 1988. The defending national champions concluded their fall season 31-4 with 22 home wins. Texas has won all three match ups against UTEP. The last time the squads squared off was in 2002 when the Longhorns beat the Miners 3-0, compiling 36 kills, 35 digs and a hitting percentage of .132.
Longhorn Notables
Leading the Texas reign is outside hitter Haley Eckerman. The junior earned many honors during the 2012 season including Big 12 Player of the Year, Volleyball Magazine National Co-Player of the Year and AVCA All-America First-Team honors. She was also named 2012 COBRA Magazine National Player of the Year after leading the Longhorns to a 29-4 overall record. Eckerman led Texas with 504 kill, 42 aces , 234 digs , 47 blocks and 575.0 points . Also bringing All-American first team honors to the Longhorns is senior Bailey Webster. The outside hitter was named as the NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player, as she registered a team-high 14 kills while hitting .500 in the national championship match. She concluded the season ranked second on the team with 435 kills while hitting .354 for the season and 89 blocks added.
Hawai'i Scouting Report
Hawai'i comes into the matchup ranked 11th in the country according to the 2013 AVCA coaches preseason poll. Last season the Rainbow Warriors earned a bid to the 2013 NCAA tournament after wrapping up a perfect season in the Big West Conference (18-0) scoring the Rainbow Warriors their 18th straight conference title. Hawaii made it to the second round of the NCAA tournament and was ousted by the Washington Huskies, ending their season 27-3 overall.
Series: The Rainbow Warriors hold a 10-0 edge over the Miners since their last meeting in 2004. The last time the two squads met the crowd witnessed seven lead changes, as the Miners kept up with Hawaii's pace. The Rainbow Warriors eventually solidified their lead, posting 34 kills, and 44 digs beating the Miners 3-0.
Rainbow Warrior Notables
Hawaii's success starts with All-American first team honoree, Emily Hartong. The outside hitter, who was named to the 2012 AVCA All-Region team, was recognized on Oct. 30th as the 2012 AVCA National Player of the Week, becoming the first Rainbow Wahine player to receive the award since 2006. Last season, Hartong ranked in the top 10 nationally in kills (4.66 k/s) and points (5.29 p/s) and concluded the season collecting four Big West Player of the Week awards. She finished the 2012 campaign registering 527 kills, 76 blocks, and a hitting percentage of .286. Also receiving All-American Honorable Mention honors for Hawaii last season is setter Mita Uiato. Uiato earned a bid on the All-Big West first team, finishing first in assists (1,180) in the league (10.26).
The Watts Era
A new era of Miner volleyball begins as Holly Watts was named the new head volleyball for UTEP. Watts, who played for Texas from 1989-1993, brings 19 years of Division I coaching experience to the Miners, including lengthy stints at Arkansas (1996-2008) and Florida State University (2008-13), where she worked with head coach Chris Poole.
Together Poole and Watts were instrumental in producing thirteen 20-win seasons in 17 years, with 13 NCAA Tournament appearances during that span.
Preseason Pick
For a second straight year, the league's 15 head coaches have selected senior Xitlali Herrera to be a part of the 2013 Conference USA Preseason Volleyball team.
Dominating the 2012 campaign, Herrera registered 10 double-doubles, including an impressive 17 kills and 15 digs against Tulsa (10/12) where she led the squad's defense and offense.
The Juarez, Mexico, native went on to match her career-high of 20 kills against Arkansas (9/8), recording a hitting percentage of .485. As an all around-competitor, the middle blocker commanded UTEP's frontcourt starting in all 29 matches last season, and becoming the only C-USA middle blocker who plays all six rotations.
Senior Standouts
The 2013 season will be one for the seniors as four veterans return for their final season with the Miners. Jacqueline Cason, Malia Patterson, and Victoria Valencia will join All-American, Xitlali Herrera in leading UTEP on the court.
Last year, Cason ranked third on the team with 224 kills (2.06 kills per set), while her hitting percentage (.250) ranked 15th in the conference. The senior opened the 2012 season with a 13-kill performance versus Fresno State (8/24). Cason had her best overall performance in a win over Belmont (8/31) as she produced 12 kills, three block assists, a hitting efficiency of .600 and zero errors.
Patterson led the Orange and Blue during the 2012 season in assists with 1,177. The senior ranked 57th nationally and second in the league in assists per set (10.80). Patterson registered 10 double-doubles, including 52 assists and 15 digs in a win over Tulsa (11/4) and tallied a season-high 56 assists during a victory over I-10 rival NM State.
Valencia led the Miners in digs (377) and service aces (26), as she ranked 12th in the league in both categories. The senior set a career-high of 22 digs versus Arizona State last year.
Veteran Herrera registered 10 double-doubles last season for UTEP, including an impressive 17 kills and 15 digs versus Tulsa where she led the squad's defense and offense. The middle blocker has earned three spots in the UTEP recordbook for hitting percentage in three sets (.647-4th), hitting percentage in four sets (.556-3rd) and (.542-4th).
In the 2012 campaign Herrera was named C-USA Defensive and Offensive Player of the Week and received C-USA All-Academic honors. The senior concluded the season, as she became the second Miner in program history to earn back-to-back All-C-USA first team honors and be named to the All-Region team.
Last season, Herrera joined former UTEP outside hitter, Michelle Stovall (1983 and 1984) as one of only two Miners in the program's history to earn a spot on the AVCA All-American Honorable Mention team.
The middle blocker also became the second Miner to earn back-to-back All-C-USA First-Team honors and be named to the ACVA All-Midwest Region First Team.
She wrapped up the season ranking in four categories in C-USA: hitting percentage (.301, 6th), points (10th), blocks (109, 13th) and kills (333, 13th). The standout led the team in hitting percentage (.300), rated second on the team in kills (333), digs (290), blocks (101) and aces (20). She helped the Miners rank first in the league and 70th nationally in hitting efficiency (.236).
Double Trouble
Starting for the Miners since her freshman year, Malia Patterson has become a double-digit force for UTEP.
In 2012, the setter became the second Miner in program history to be named to the All-Conference USA second team. She ranked second in the league and 57th nationally in assists per set (10.80).
Patterson led the team in assists with 1,143 and helped the squad secure the No. 4 spot in C-USA in assists per set (12.20) .
The Hawaii native registered 10 double-doubles for UTEP, including a season-high 56 assists against I-10 rival NM State (9/26). She guided UTEP to rank first in the league and 62nd nationally in hitting percentage (.236).
Top Five Ranking
The Miners' efforts in the 2012 campaign ranked UTEP nationally in the top 70 in two categories; hitting percentage (55th) and blocks per set (68th).
Expecting the Miners to once again find success on the court, the Conference USA preseason poll placed UTEP fifth out of 15 teams. The team concluded the 2012 campaign totaling, 1,444 kills, 1,330 assists, 1,518 digs and a hitting percentage of .236
A Fresh Start
After tearing her ACL before the 2012 season, setter Lindsey Larson was forced to redshirt. But having fully recovered, the newcomer is ready to set fire on the court.
The Canadian led Humboldt Collegiate Institute to the 2010 Provincial 4A Volleyball Championship title and a second-place finish in 2009. She was named the 2011 Lumsden Tournament Most Valuable Player and was selected to the 2010 Lumsden Tournament all-star team. Larson has also participated in the 2011 Kamloops Western Canada Summer Games where the team took bronze.
Backcourt Strength
UTEP has added some force on the backcourt, signing three defensive specialists. Junior transfer Dayana Acevedo, sophomore transfer Naomi Whitehair and freshman Sarah Villa have joined the Miners for 2013 season.
Acevedo was a dominant backcourt player for Iowa Western tallying a total of 1,418 total digs in two seasons. The junior earned multiple honors with the Reivers including: two-time NJCAA Division I All-American first team, two-time AVCA All-American first team, two-time All-Region first team and a two-time Academic All-Region first team recipient. In 2011, Acevedo led the team in digs with a total of 801 securing the No. 2 spot in the school recordbook for most digs in one season.
Whitehair started as a defensive specialist as a freshman for the New Mexico Military Institute. The transfer played in 130 sets and compiled 262 digs during the 2012 season. The defensive specialist ranked second on the team in receptions. In high school, Whitehair received multiple honors including being selected twice to the Arizona 3A North All-Region Team and once to the Arizona 3A All-State Team.
Villa registered seven 30 or more dig performances during her 2012 campaign. The libero received 2012 Class 4A All-State honors for the second straight seas¬¬on after collecting a total of 881 digs. Her efforts also earned her the 2012 All-City Defensive Player of the Year and the All-District 1-4A Outstanding Defensive Specialist.

The River Ranch House is a fisherman's dream. Nestled between Mt.
Shasta and Mt. Lassen, this 2 story, 4BR, 2 BA home comes with RIVER
ACCESS and a DOCK on the coveted Upper Fall River, one of the
nation's top fly fishing waterways! In addition to fishing, imagine
enjoying spectacular scenery and nature with all the amenities at
your fingertips, as you sit on a large deck. Highly accessible to
hiking, golfing, and sight-seeing, this place will take you away
from the hustle and bustle and allow you to relax and
I purchased this property form my Grandparents Harley and Ollie Neuerburg. It holds many special memories for me. I hope you will make your own memories in this beautiful setting.
Patricia Rue purchased this house in 1992
One of the few properties with access to the Upper Fall River. Most of the access is private and not available to the public.

horses (2 - checking the apple tree frequently for downed apples!)
various insects (many being eaten by the Swallows and Flycatcher
and....fish of course!
In the distance we hear a rooster crowing and occasionally a dog barking.
There is a large old apple tree adjacent to the house in a pasture. It is a huge food source for the Starlings, Robins, Flicker, Quail and Jays & squirrel. The horses love it. Heron and Egrets are fishing. Streamside trees are reflected in the water of the Fall River-like a Monet painting.
This is a truly magical place.
Our paddling club, based in Sacramento, was making our third trip to Fall Fiver. Five of us shared this home and found the view breathtaking, especially from the large deck off the kitchen. There are two bedrooms (king and Queen) on the main floor, when you walk in the front door. The bathroom with the tub/shower combination is also on this floor, along with the living room and kitchen. The kitchen is on the small size, so if you have a large group it would be tight to all be in there at once. The other two bedrooms are downstairs in what appears to be a basement with access to the outside as well. There is one Queen (I slept here on a very firm mattress) and one Twin, both sharing another bathroom. This bathroom is a little small and only has a shower. There is a very large water tank (perhaps to circulate water from the well?) that is very loud when it kicks on. This seemed to happen when toilets were flushed and when people took showers. If you're a light sleeper, bring ear plugs. The house is very rustic and not too modern, but fully functional and stocked with all the basics you'll need. There is access to launch a kayak right off the bank of the property. Fall River is absolutely gorgeous to paddle on. There are places to eat about 15 minutes away in Fall River Mills, or another 7 minutes to McAurthur. If you plan to paddle Ahjumawi Lava Springs, you're about 20-25 minutes away. I would stay here again.
A group of us (4) rented "Harley's Place" for a week (spent only 5 nights, though) for our annual spring fishing trip to the Fall River. The house is comfortable and convenient with a commanding view of the river from the living/dining room and the expansive deck. The four bedrooms (two upstairs and two downstairs) were comfortable, although three of them had either a queen or king-sized bed--not as well suited as twin-sized beds would be if you're going to have a complement of 7 anglers staying there. If you're going to be doing a lot of cooking, you might find the kitchen a bit tight if more than two are involved in the process. Finally, launching the boats was easy, using the dock at the bottom of the property.
All-in-all, we give Harley's Place two thumbs up and will be using it again whenever we're fishing the Fall!

"We used this card for our little boy's seventh birthday and it turned out beautifully! The card stock is amazing and the pictures looked spectacular. We've always had great service using Tiny Prints. Thank you for such amazing products."
"Great choice for an invite if you want to share pictures of your little one from the past year. There are even spaces to add more pictures to the back. Good quality paper and the glossy finish really makes it pop. Make sure to choose the modified rectangular envelopes so you don't have to pay extra postage."
"The invitations were beautifully made!!! The customer service representative was VERY polite and answered any and all questions I had regarding my order..they arrived right on time and we LOVED them!!!!"
"I purchased these for my sons second birthday and they came out fabulous! Everyone loved them. Will definitely be ordering more invitations from TP in the future!"
"The only mistake I made was not paying attention to the size of the invitation. The diameters were listed but I didn't look until I received them and noticed they were smaller then I would have liked them to be. Overall the quality is excellent."

Undergraduate Council
(April 11, 2008)
Present: Michael Barnhart, Brian Colle (chair), Cynthia Dietz, Donna DiDonato, Arlene Feldman, Sarah Fuller, Rick Gatteau, Norm Goodman, Joe Mitchell, Beverly Rivera
The meeting began at 10:10 A.M.
Previous minutes: The minutes of March 28, 2008 were approved with minor corrections of typos.
Honor Society
Donna D. presented a proposal for a new honor society (National Society of Collegiate Scholars). The Society requires a 3.5 min GPA over the student's first two semesters. The Society has involved in social activities (tutoring, Spring break to New Orleans to help Katrina victims).
The Council approved the honor society.
Michael B. provided a short update of the Course Packs. He presented three potential models to follow based on other universities:
Next step is to get some cost estimates from FSA.
Brian passed out the latest draft on the UGC summary of the DEC and Skills discussions.
Donna mentioned that there may be concerns about the burden of credits and the number of DEC courses on the students.
Norm stated that the burden of credits is within a number of majors that require a relatively high number of credits (60-70).
Colle requested a vote on a few issues related to DEC summary document.
A large majority (10-1) of the UGC believes that the current DEC is working philosophically and pedagogically.
All members of the UGC feel as though the DEC is broken in many respects (Skill 4 vs DEC K anomaly, more D.E.C. D courses, …).
Several edits were made to the document on the UGC summary of the D.E.C. Colle will finish the document before the end of the semester.
Mark Aronoff and Provost Kaler will visit the UGC before the end of the semester to discuss the D.E.C.
The UGC is awaiting review by the Curriculum Committee of the survey questions of the upper-division writing requirement.
The meeting ended at 11:10 A.M.
Respectfully submitted,
Brian Colle

Game One
RHP Jake Peavy (9-9, 4.06) and LHP Randy Johnson (3-6, 4.90)
Peavy has been hit pretty hard in the past by the Arizona Diamondbacks (1-4, 11.08 with 8 HRs). However, Jake has been outstanding in August posting a 1.27 ERA and hitters are hitting .178 off him. It recently came to light that Peavy's wife Katie had been hospitalized with viral meningitis, yet he still took the ball and pitched 7 shutout innings. Keep a close eye on this young pitcher Padres' fans.
You have to go back to 1992 to find the last season where Randy Johnson finished the season below .500 and you would have to go back to his rookie year in 1989 to find his ERA above 4. In a season marred by injuries to the 39 year old left hander, he just has not pitched like the winner of 5 Cy Young awards (just ask bitter fantasy baseball players). However, with the Padres offense being downright offensive, it might be exactly what Johnson needs to get back on the beam.
Game Two
LHP Oliver Perez (4-7, 5.38) and RHP Elmer Dessens (7-7, 4.93)
Perez has all the tools, but he is still learning how to pitch and not just throw. In his last outing, he was two pitches away from throwing at least 7 shut out innings. Perez has a tremendous change-up, but he does not seem to trust it, especially early in the game. Ty Wigginton was sitting dead red on a 0-1 count and Ollie throws a 94 mph heater right down the heart of the plate and there was nothing left but a vapor trail. He throws a change right there and it takes guys with shovels to dig Wigginton out.
Padres' hitters are licking their chops to get another opportunity to face Dessens. The Padres have faced Dessens three times this season and he has given up a total of 18 earned runs. Ryan Klesko loves to face Dessens (.400, 2 HR, 6 RBI). If any pitcher can break Ryno out of his month-long slump it is Dessens.
Game Three
RHP Brian Lawrence (6-14, 4.54) and RHP Curt Schilling (7-7, 2.60)
BLaw has one complete game this season, and it was at the BOB. He allowed only one run in a victory for the Padres. After overcoming trying couple innings against the Expos, BLaw settled in and gave the Padres a chance to win. BLaw has posted a 2.59 ERA in August and by most accounts looks like the BLaw fans have come to expect.
Curt Schilling is one of baseball's best pitchers and best students of the game. Honestly, though, why a guy with a 2.60 ERA would whine about QuesTec is beyond me. Schilling has been bothered by an achy knee recently but that has not slowed him, as he K'd 14 in his last outing.
Batters to Watch
Mark Loretta is mired in a bit of a slump as he has gone 3 for his last 21. Bruce Bochy gave Loretta a well-deserved day off on Sunday. Hopefully the rest will help him get back on track.
Steve Finley is still a popular guy in San Diego. Apparently Fins would rather face us than any other team in the league. He is hitting .467 with 4 HRs and 12 RBIs. I love you Fins, but a Padres pitcher needs to go inside and make you move. I am of the opinion that if a guy hits you hard you do not allow him to pitch a tent in the batter's box. While I am not trying to compare Finley to Barry Bonds, how is it a guy like Bonds that hangs way over the plate gets hit by the pitch less than 10 times a year?
Other Notes
The Padres have won 4 of their last 6 games. The troubling part is that relief pitchers have got the "W" all four times. It is not because the starter is not going deep in the game, it is the inability to score runs early in the game. The Padres have had an especially difficult time lately getting the guy in from 3rd with less than 2 out. Call me a traditionalist, but the only thing more disturbing about the D-Backs than watching Craig Counsell bat, is the gold lamé "D" on their road caps.

The Beautiful Silence [Fwd: Sharon Rajkumar]
The Beautiful Silence
Have you ever experienced a moment in your life when you just ran out of words and you go…
S i l e n t ???
Let me assist you in recalling…
….. the moment when you left your home for the first time and you look back at your parents who are worried that their son/daughter are leaving them yet happy that their child took the first step towards independence.
….. The moment when the girl/boy you like most.. smiled back at you! You don't say anything.. You just smile back..
….. the moment when you get better marks than you expected… those "numb" moments of ecstasy n surprise "is that true?"…
?….. the moment when you are parting with your old friend(s) and the train has just started… And you are standing on the door of the wagon.. waving "bye-bye" with your heart beating fast…
… .. the moment after the HR manager has just called you and told you,"You are through! Congrats!"
?….. the moment when you sit alone in your room after having told everyone that you cleared that exam you prepared for 6 months!! You can go on remembering your "special" moments!
I had always wondered why I never said anything to myself at those moments.. as if it was "understood" … happiness, joy, pain.. All feelings just flowed ceaselessly in the 'years' that passed in those flash moments!
They say.. the best way to communicate is through "silence". Love. Joy. Grief. Surprise. Anger. Hope. Expectations. Support. Non-cooperation. ..
Can you imagine the importance of a silent moment in a song??
When Bryan Adams stops for a while along with music, before he goes on in his husky voice…
….. Please forgive me. I can't stop loving you!
Ever had those moments when you thought you were tired enough that you reach for your bed after dinner.. But find yourself wide awake looking at the roof of your room silently…
But you sure are 'thinking'.. . those moments of self-talk are the most important in our lives. Those moments when we listen to our own hearts! Those promises… Those decisions… those are the moments when we make our destinies!
Next time you go silent… listen carefully to what your heart is
saying.. listen to its joy…listen to its pain.. Listen to its
fears.. listen to its desires..
Be in touch with your true self…

Israel's richest woman gets messages "from above"
TEL AVIV (Reuters) - Shari Arison, Israel's richest woman and the controlling shareholder of the country's second-largest bank, said in a televised interview she receives messages "from above" and sees things before they happen.
"For many years I've received messages, you could call them transmissions or messages. I see many things before they happen," Arison said in an interview with Israel's Channel Two broadcast late on Saturday.
"Apparently I got this gift to see ahead of time, not in order to run and buy and sell to make more money but to lead the world elsewhere."
The Israeli-American Arison, along with her brother, inherited billions from her late father Ted Arison, who founded Carnival Corp, the world's biggest cruise ship operator.
She is the controlling shareholder in Bank Hapoalim and also controls Housing and Construction, Israel's biggest construction company.
"There are many people who get messages in this world. With me it works either through a picture, a word or in my sleep, all kinds of ways," she said.
"I receive them directly from above," she added, gesturing with her hands.
Arison, who is also known in Israel for her philanthropy, said that two years ago she got a message that there would be an economic crisis and people would go crazy.
But she said she believes the world is moving toward redemption. Continued...

Bedrock had a huge following at Heaven nightclub in Charing Cross for six years until 2004, with bookings that included Carl Cox, Grooverider and LTJ Bukem.
Now it's back on the first Thursday of every month, with house producer jozif running the second room. Here's John Digweed on the whys and wherefores.
ES: What makes Bedrock such a survivor?
JD: I've been very lucky to have such a loyal fan base who travel from all over the world for our parties. Many friendships have been formed on the dance floor and I think we attract a really friendly crowd.
ES: Why bring it back now?
JD: The timing's right. I've been itching to do something regular in London and have been looking for the right venue to play extended sets each month. There's so much great music out there at the moment I want to get a chance to play as much of it as possible.
ES: What do you think about London's electronic music scene at the moment?
JD: It's very strong and there are lots of great regular events, as well as some one off events at warehouses and car parks, keeping that old skool rave vibe alive. You'll never be short of something to do in London if you love electronic music.
ES: How do you think London compares to other world destinations for its music scene?
JD: Even though the electronic scene has taken off internationally, people still look to London for what's hot. It's such a melting pot of different scenes and sounds that it's always going to be looked at as one of the leading places for the creation of new scenes and genres.
ES: Is the stripped-back DJ and decks format on the way out?
JD: I really don't think the format matters. It's the quality of the music that matters the most. Sometimes I feel the audience is being sold a lot of smoke and mirrors with DJ gigs being called shows and production taking the focus off the music.
ES: Why did you choose XOYO as the venue for the rebirth of Bedrock?
JD: I love the feel of the club and the downstairs is perfect for me – great size, nice and dark with a few flashing lights and thumping sound. In an age of massive productions and huge LED screens this is stripped back clubbing with the focus on the music. I think people are crying out for something that's back to basics.
ES: What are your favourite venues or nights in the capital at the moment?
JD: Fabric is still the best club in London if not the world. The way it's run and the line ups are stellar every single week. For me nothing comes close. I am hoping that the new Bedrock monthly night is going to be as big a success as the first time round. That there'll be a few sore heads turning up for work on Friday - but with smiles attached.
ES: Which little labels or sites have been exciting you recently?
JD: I don't have favourite as such. But I get sent loads and loads of links to sites and postings on SoundCloud from producers wanting to get their tracks on the Bedrock label. We use it and it's such a great platform to get early reactions to tracks we are about to release.
ES: Why did you pick jozif as your co-resident?
JD: Jozif played at the last Bedrock Easter party and rocked it. I love the sound he's pushing.
With regards to Bedrock, each month I will be showcasing the best in electronic music starting with the deeper sounds and moving up to the tougher techno sounds towards the end of my set.
The next Bedrock will be held at XOYO on April 5.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Welcome and thanks for your question!
It may still be appropriate to pay this consultant with a W-2, but it may also be more appropriate to pay him with a 1099. It depends on the specific facts and circumstances of your relationship and agreement with the consultant. It is very important that you classify him correctly because it is a hot button issue with the IRS.
The IRS looks to three areas in determining proper worker classification - Behavioral, Financial, and Type of Relationship. A good quick overview can be found on the IRS' website.
There is a list of 20 questions that the IRS uses to help identify employee vs independent contractor.
Generally, the more freedom and control the individual is, the more likely it is they should be treated as an independent contractor and receive a 1099. Generally, the more control you have over the individual, the more likely it is they should be treated as an employee.
Did you have questions on that information?
No, you answered it perfectly. Thank you!

Have to love the water : Wind Spirit Cruise Review by Joedpicu
Overall Member Rating
Have to love the water
Destination: South Pacific
Embarkation: Tahiti (Papeete)
The only other negative I could say is that the seas were rough and we had a tough time More sleeping due to the rough sea....but I can't blame the cruise line for that
To write all the positives would take me days to finish. The trip is as fun, elegant, romantic and relaxing as could be. The staff could not do a thing more for us. Every single waiter bartender , server, cabin attendant we met knew are name, favorite drink, where we were from etc. it was so enjoyable
After dinner we would enjoy drinks at the pool bar and then end up in the lounge. The duo there, "souljorn" provided great nightly music fun and two nights of trivia games. The last night we got to dance while the boat pitched and yawed. Gave dancing a whole new meaning
The cabins are small but amazingly functional. Food was plentiful, tasty and we managed to eat healthy...
We did the alcohol package and what a great idea. My glass was never empty and the quality served was top notch Also would suggest the laundry package for a $100 you get great laundry service
After a few days, we had made many new friends, and left with lots of email addresses to plan our next vacation with new friends we made
So to recap
A great trip, great value and just fun
But...if you are not a scuba or snorkeling person, you may get bored...consider the same cruise line, but more of a sight seeing trip like Greece and Turkey
The staff was amazing and I can't wait to plan my next cruise with them Less

Cabin review: 125
Suite 125 exactly midship on lower level. Seas were rough a few of the nights, so we had waves crashing onto our porthole. I thought it was a cool effect but scared my girl friend. The cabin is small but very functional and well designed. Bathroom and closet space were night
