Hay Production Will Drop Along With Rainfall Average
Florida is called the "Sunshine State" for a reason, but a lack of rain and hotter than usual summer heat is making it tough for hay producers in our area to make a living.
Rainfall has cast a dark cloud over North Central Florida's hay fields.
In Alachua County, hay production is behind schedule, which means the price for the crop will continue to rise heading into Florida's dry fall season.
Cattle ranchers could then face a double whammy, hay production will be lower and prices higher and the need to purchase hay will also increase because feeding grasses will start to dry out.
Farmer Guy Hale has been growing hay in the area for over two decades and says this is one of the worst season's he has seen.
Hale says even if we get some late season rainfall, it could be too late for it to make a difference for this year's hay crop.
Alachua County produces the third most hay in the entire state and accounts for millions of dollars of the area's agriculture economy.
For more information on a list of growers in our area visit Alachua County Extension Office.

Hey folks, I have recently installed Transparency, and I must say, its the best skin i've seen so far, I'm really loving it.
The only issue i'm having at all, is that the main screen menu option of "Movies" doesn't do anything when I click on it. It does, however, display the 3 newest movies i've added to my library when I have the Movies menu option highlighted. In order to watch my movies, I need to go to Videos->Movies instead. My TV Shows menu option works just fine, so, I'm sure its just something I have wrong in my system setup that it doesn't know where my Movies are or something.
XBMC 10.1 (ubuntu maverick release)
Transparency! 3.11.7
edit: Also just noticed that my "TV" option under "Settings" doesn't do anything either
"Movies" menu option does nothing

Try disabling the CinemaExperience script in the skin options
The TV option in the settings is for LiveTV, if you don't have a TV tuner it won't do anything

Thank you, disabling CinemaExperience script did the trick!
And thanks for the TV info, that makes a little more sense to me.

Re: WWE: Turning The Corner
WWE Smackdown!
Dayton Ohio
5th October 2007
Rise Up by Drowning Pool hits as the Smackdown Video package plays before we head out to the arena where we see thousands of screaming fans. The camera pans amongst them before finally going over to Michael Cole and JBL at ringside.
Michael Cole:
Welcome to Friday Night Smackdown, from Dayton Ohio. Im Michael Cole, as always alongside JBL. Just two weeks before the next WWE PPV No Mercy. And tonight we are going to witness the contract signing, for the Undertaker versus Batista, Hell in a Cell Match at No Mercy.
: Those two biggest of rivals are going to be in the same ring, at the same time something has to give.
: Also both men will be in Wrestling Action tonight; Undertakers match has not yet been confirmed. But Batista will be teaming up with his long time friend Ric Flair to take on Chavo Guerrero and Kenny Dykstra.
: What a match that is going to be Michael, but what a way to start the show with the most Ballin show in all of Sports Entertainment, the VIP Lounge.
We then go to the ring where the VIP Lounge is already set up, and MVP is already in the ring with both his United States and Tag Team Championships over his shoulders. MVP drops both off his championships onto the couch, and he picks up a mic.

How are all my playas doing tonight in Dayton Ohio!
Crowd Pops
You should all be feeling good, because when I am in the ring it only means one thing. That big things are popping, and little things are stopping. And do you know what I am also feeling very good tonight. Because I know in roughly ..say two hours. I am going to get the first plane out of Dayton Ohio!
Big heat
And before I introduce my guest for this edition of the VIP Lounge. I would like to introduce you to my co presenter in this edition of the VIP Lounge. He is my partner; he is in fact the man who I share the Tag Team Championships with. Show your love for Matt Hardy!
Oh Yeah hits and Matt Hardy comes down to the ring to a big pop from the crowd. Hardy comes down, with cuts and bruises on his face. Hardy gets in the ring and immediately locks eyes with MVP. MVP realises that Matt Hardy is looking pissed off.
Matt Hardy you sit down and look prett, oh sorry I forgot about your face, you look pretty ugly at the moment with all those bruises and cuts on your face.
Matt Hardy gets even more wound up by that comment and he gets in MVPs face, and MVP quickly backs off.
Hey just kidding Matt, thats what buddies do Matt. They mess around and have a bit of fun. But Matt your obviously not in a very good mood, so you just sit down while I introduce the guest.
Hardy refuses to sit down, to which MVP tries to ignore.
Ladies and Gentleman let me introduce at this time, the man who ..
Suddenly Matt Hardy snatches the mic off MVP, which gets a pop.
Before you move on, we need to talk.
Crowd Pops, as MVP gulps knowing what is coming.
Last week, I was supposed to get a one on one match for your United States Championship, but moments before my match somebody attacked me backstage meaning that I couldnt get a title shot. And MVP, I think I have an idea who attacked me, and that person I have in mind is .YOU!
Crowd Pops as MVPs mouth opens wide in shock.
Hang on Matt; you actually think that I did this? Why would I back out of match with you by attacking you backstage? Matt I could beat you with my hands tied around my back, my legs tied together and blindfolded at the same time because quite simply, I am Half Man Half Amazing!
Crowd Boos
Now Matt if you want to know who attacked you last week, look no further than the men who attacked me after my match with Kane last week, Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von. Last week they took both of us out to send us a message that they are coming after OUR Tag Team Championships. Matt if it was me, you would be in a lot worse shape than you are right now, TRUST ME!
Big heat as Hardy gives out a smirk.
Well MVP as much crap that is coming out of your mouth, you dont need to worry because no matter what I think I am not out here to get my revenge. I am out here to put things right. You see MVP; you are going to accept my challenge for you to put up your United States Championship at No Mercy. Or these cuts and bruises on my face will be nothing compared to what you look like, if you reject my challenge!
Huge pops as MVP looks on at Hardy in shock, not too happy that Hardy just threatened him.
Matt as much as I would like to prove that I am better than you, once again. The thing is I presumed that we would both want revenge for what happened last week, so thats why I had a little chat with T.Long. We chatted for a little while, and he made a match for No Mercy. You see me and you are going to defend our Tag Team Championships against Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von!
The crowd boos, as they would of rather seen Hardy v MVP at No Mercy. Matt Hardy frowns at MVP who gives out a slight smile. The tension between the two men is then cut off as Booyaka 619 hits and Rey Mysterio comes out to a thunderous ovation. Mysterio makes his way down to the ring and takes a mic. MVP looks glad that Mysterio has come down, as it stops the confrontation between him and Matt Hardy.
Rey Mysterio welcome to the VIP Lounge. Now Rey Mysterio there is a lot of questions I want to ask you. But lets get straight to the most important question. Rey how does It feel to be standing in the same ring as greatness, how does it feel to be standing in the same ring as the man who is a Legend in the Making, how does it feel to be standing in the same ring as MVP?
It ..
You dont even deserve to answer that!
Crowd Boos
Rey Mysterio it is a disgrace, it is a disgrace that a loser like you gets ANOTHER, World Heavyweight Title Shot while World Class Athletes like me are held back. Rey how many times Is that you have lost to Edge, two times. You are a LOSER REY .
How about we prove who the loser is right here right now.
Crowd Pops
The matter of fact is that the first time Edge cheated to beat me, and the second time I wasnt the one who Edge beat. Nobody remembers the first or the second time, all everybody remembers is the third time. And the third time is the time, when I am going to beat Edge and become World Heavyweight Cham ..
Metalingus hits and Edge steps out onto the top of the ramp dressed for a fight. Edge starts talking trash to Mysterio, who challenges Edge to come down to the ring. As Edge makes his way down to the ring MVP and Matt Hardy are attacked from behind, by Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von. This distracts Rey for long enough, so that Edge can get into the ring and he starts attacking Edge. However Mysterio starts fighting back and he sets Edge up for the 619, but Edge moves out of the way at the right time. Meanwhile Matt Hardy fights back against Elijah Burke and tosses him to the outside of the ring, and Hardy then saves MVP from being Pounced by Marcus Cor Von. We then go to our first commercial break, as Mysterio, MVP and Matt Hardy in the ring look down the ramp at Edge, Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von.
Commercial Break
: Welcome back to Friday Night Smackdown, and after what just happened before the break. Teddy Long has made a huge 6 man tag team main event. As Edge teams up with the New Breed to take on Rey Mysterio, Matt Hardy and MVP.
: What a huge match this is going to be Michael, six of the best athletes in the WWE in the same ring later tonight.
Kid Kashs music hits and Kash comes out to a nice pop from the crowd. As Kash makes his way down to the ring, Michael Cole announces that the first match in the best of seven series between Jamie Noble and Kid Kash will take place in nine days time at No Mercy. Kid Kash enters the ring, with Frankie Kazarian staring him down having already made his entrance.
Match 1
Singles Match
Frankie Kazarian v Kid Kash
With Kid Kashs first match with Jamie Noble in the best of seven series in just nine days time, Kid Kash warmed up for the match with an impressive display against a tough Frankie Kazarian. Despite Kazarian getting a lot of offence in the match, it never looked as though Kid Kash would lose the match. It was a very quick paced match with a lot of near falls, the closest coming when Kid Kash connected with the Money Maker, with Kazarian putting his foot on the bottom rope at two. The end of the match saw Frankie Kazarian set Kash up for the Back to the Future. But Kash slid off Kazarians shoulders and connected with the Dead Level. Kash then climbed up to the top rope and connected with the Frog Splash, for the 1-2-3.
Winner: Kid Kash in 6:13
What a victory for Kid Kash, he is on a roll at the moment JBL, and at this rate the best of seven series will only go four matches because Jamie Noble has yet to beat Kid Kash.
: That was impressive Cole, and yes Jamie Noble has yet to beat Kid Kash. But when the lights are on bright, and the title is on the line that is when Jamie Noble is at his best. At No Mercy Kid Kash and Jamie Noble are going to tear each other apart, and they might have to do it six more times after that.
We then go backstage to see Batista in the main Locker Room staring at a Poster of The Undertaker on the Wall. Batista starts to breath heavily as he looks at the poster in rage.
Hey hows it going big man?
Batista then turns around to see Ric Flair, which gets a big Whoo from the crowd. Batista and Flair being good friends share a hug.
Hey Champ we got a big match tonight, I cant wait to get my hands on Chavo Guerrero, for the disrespect he showed me last week I am going to kick the Living Hell out of him WHOOO!
Crowd responds to Flairs Whoo, as Batista smiles but carries on looking at The Undertakers poster. Ric Flair sees this.
Hey Champ you neednt worry about The Undertaker. Yeah you havent beat the Undertaker, yeah The Undertaker is one of the Greatest Superstars of all time. But when me and Hunter brought you into Evolution, we didnt do that because you were a big tough strong man. We brought you in, because we saw the Talent in you. We noticed that you would be the future of the WWE. I know you can beat The Undertaker, and Big Man at No Mercy thats what you are going to do.
Batista smiles as we hear a bit of heat for that comment.
But theres one thing you need to do Dave. I think you need to calm down, because in your current state of mind you are not going to beat The Undertaker.
Batista eyes suddenly open in wide at shock at Flairs comment.
Hang on did I hear you just correct? You think I need to calm down? Well let me tell you what I think, I think you need to shut your mouth!
Flairs mouth opens wide in shock at Batistas attitude.
Ric I appreciate the advice. But quite frankly I dont need it. Ric you can doubt me all you like, youre just like everybody who thinks that I cant beat The Undertaker. But at No Mercy I am going to prove to you, and the whole world that I am better than The Undertaker.
Batista: (Intensely says, staring hole through Ric Flair)
I am going to beat The Undertaker, and I am going to do it in his own backyard!
Commercial Break
When we get back from commercial we can see Chris Masters making his entrance down to the ring.
You Will Remember Me hits and Chuck Palumbo comes down to the ring, as always riding on his motorcycle. He circles the ring and parks it on the ramp, before entering the ring and locking his eyes on Chris Masters.
Match Two
Singles Match
Chris Masters v Chuck Palumbo
This was your typical match between two brawlers, with a lot of punches and kicks thrown throughout. Palumbo took it to Masters straight from the start, pounding away at him into the corner with a string of hard right hands, before taking him down with a Clothesline followed by a Big Boot. Chuck went for the victory too early however, as he went for the Superkick on Masters, who simply ducked it and back body dropped Palumbo over the top rope to the outside. Chris Masters then started to work over the back of Chuck Palumbo, after originally scooping him up and ramming him spine first into the Steel Ring Post. Chris Masters did a very effective job of keeping Palumbo on the mat, working over his back so he can finish the match with his finisher. But Palumbo fought back into it after catching Masters off the ropes with an Overhead Belly to Belly Suplex. Chuck Palumbo then went full throttle, going through his move set on Masters. Early on in the match Chris Masters undid the turnbuckle padding, and in the end that helped Masters to victory. Palumbo charged up at Masters, who moved out of the way causing Palumbo to go spine first into the Unprotected Turnbuckle. Masters then sneaked from behind and locked on the Masterlock. After a few moments of fighting, Palumbo finally gave up giving Masters the win.
Winner: Chris Masters in 6:18
After the match Chris Masters refuses to let go of the Masterlock, and only lets go when a second referee comes down to the ring to tell Masters to get off. Chris Masters celebrates his victory as we go backstage.
We then go backstage to see Teddy Long talking on his Mobile Phone, when the Cruiserweight Champion Jamie Noble comes in with a big frown on his face. Teddy Long finishes his phone call, and turns his attention to Jamie Noble.
Hey whats up Playa, whats the matter Jamie?
Whats the matter? Teddy Long are you out of your mind? Teddy Long what the Hell were you thinking, when you put me in a best of seven series against Kid Kash huh? What has Kid Kash ever done to deserve seven matches, with the greatest Cruiserweight Champion of all time, Jamie Noble!
Crowd Boos
What has he done to deserve seven matches with you?
Yes answer that one Teddy.
Jamie what Kid Kash has done, is beat you three weeks in a row.
Crowd Pops as Noble laughs sarcastically
What are you talking about Teddy, I think you have been around Rey Mysterio too much, because you dont speak Mexican you speak English. Kid Kash has never beat me fair and square! I demand you to cancel this best of seven series, right now!
Crowd Boos
Your right Jamie I dont speak Mexican, I speak English and you better understand this Jamie. Since Kid Kash has had a warm up match for this best of seven series tonight, it is only right that you have a warm up match aswell.
Crowd Pops
I have no problem with that, I will take on anybody you want
Thats good because your opponent tonight is going to be THE UNDERTAKER!
Huge pops for this announcement as Jamie Noble cant believe what he just heard, and is absolutely livid.
WHAT? THE UNDERTAKER? Teddy Long what in the hell are you thinking, I cant face The Undertaker Im too young to die! Come on Teddy, how about I face Michael Cole.
Like it or not Jamie, this match is going to happen tonight. Actually Jamie, this match is going to be NEXT!
Crowd Pops
Now you can Holla that playa!
Jamie Noble then storms out of Teddy Longs office slamming the door on his way out, as we go to a commercial break.
Commercial Break.
Slam Smack hits and Jamie Noble comes down to the ring, looking very nervous ahead of this upcoming match. Not happy that he has to face The Undertaker.
Gong hits and The Undertaker makes his way down to the ring to the biggest pop of the evening. As Undertaker and Jamie Noble were about to lock up, we saw Batista making his way down to the ring. The Undertaker saw this and he got himself ready for a fight with Batista, but referees rushed to Batista and pushed him back to the Locker room.
Match 3
Singles Match
Jamie Noble v The Undertaker
Jamie Noble got more offence in than he had any right to, but in the end The Undertaker was too big, powerful and good for the Cruiserweight Champion Jamie Noble. Jamie Noble very surprisingly straight from the go, attacked The Undertaker before the match even started taking Taker down with a Chop Block to the leg after Batista was sent to the back. Jamie Noble then started to work over Undertakers leg, even turning him over for the Boston Crab, but pretty quickly Undertaker got to the ropes. Jamie Noble then made a big mistake, which allowed Taker into the match, as he set up Taker for the Tiger Bomb, and Undertaker easily countered with the Back Body Drop. Undertaker then steamrollered through Noble, going through his move set on the Cruiserweight Champion. Undertaker went to finish off the match with the Chokeslam, but in mid air Noble countered it into a Tornado DDT! Jamie Noble after countering Undertakers finisher started celebrating like he won the match, which turned out to be his downfall as The Undertaker then sat up. Undertaker then grabbed Noble by the throat and turned him upside down, connecting with the Tombstone Piledriver. Taker then made the cover and got the academic 1-2-3.
Winner: The Undertaker in 5:47
After the match The Undertaker does his normal post match routine as Michael Cole and JBL at ringside, say thats what could happen to Batista at No Mercy.
We then go backstage to see Josh Matthews standing by Finlay who is met with some heat from the crowd.
Finlay, ever since unforgiven you have targeted Kane, you have cost Kane matches and you have continued to attack his injured leg with that Shillelagh. What I want to know is Finlay, what is your problem with Kane?
Finlay looks at Josh Matthews in a Did he just say that expression. Finlay then grabs Josh Matthews by the shirt and pushes him back against the wall.
My Problem with Kane, is that at Unforgiven he cost me my chance to become the World Heavyweight Champion! I had that match won, but Kane screwed up. He being the loser he is, he got pinned by that winy blonde Jackass, Edge. Edge should not be World Heavyweight Champion; I should be the World Heavyweight Champion! Kane might be a monster Josh, but I love to fight. And if you think what I have done to Kane so far is bad, well just wait and see what I do to that big red freak tonight!
Finlay lets go off Josh and walks away from the interview scene, as Josh sorts out his suit.
Commercial Break
When we get back from commercial we see Kenny Dykstra making his way down to the ring. Dykstra comes down looking as cocky as ever, as Michael Cole and JBL talk about the victories Dykstra has got in recent weeks.
Oooh Chavo hits and Chavo Guerrero comes down to the ring to some heat from the crowd. Chavo once again mocks Ric Flair as he makes his way down to the ring, mocking Flairs strut and giving out a few Whooos
Whooo hits and Ric Flair makes his way down to the ring to a big pop from the crowd. Flair doesnt make his traditional entrance by styling and profiling, but instead just walks down into the ring with a face off intensity. He gets in the ring and goes straight after Chavo Guerrero, who flees out of the ring. Flair wants to go after Chavo, but the referee blocks his path.
I Walk Alone hits and Batista comes out to a huge reaction from the crowd, very half split however with lots of pops and lots of boos. Batista gets into the ring and he and Flair immediately have a stare down, Ric Flair taps Batista on the back with his hand and they shake hands as they start to talk match tactics ahead of this match.
Match 4
Tag Team Match
Batista and Ric Flair v Chavo Guerrero and Kenny Dykstra
An entertaining Tag Team Match, which saw Chavo Guerrero and Kenny Dykstra play a very smart game for the majority of the match, keeping Flair in the ring and not allow him anywhere near Batista so he can tag out. Chavo and Kenny worked over the leg of Ric Flair (Which was injured by Chavo last week), using some very effective double teaming, producing quick tags and keeping the freshest man in the ring at all times. Chavo Guerrero went to embarrass Flair in the biggest way possible, as he got Flair in his own finisher the Figure 4 Leg Lock. But as Flair went to grab the ropes, Kenny Dykstra came off the top rope with the Guillotine Leg Drop. Chavo went for the cover but Batista had finally snapped, and stormed the ring and broke the cover. Batista then took it to Chavo and Kenny, allowing Flair some time to recover. As Flair got to his feet, Batista got on the apron and Flair tagged him in. Batista continued to clear house, hitting Chavo and Kenny with high impact power Manoeuvres. The end of the match saw Batista hit Kenny Dykstra with a Spinebuster, before connecting with a Batista Bomb to Chavo right ontop of Kenny Dykstra. Batista then made the cover and picked up the three count.
Winner: Batista and Ric Flair in 7:50
After the match Batista celebrates his victory, and Ric Flair comes from behind to celebrate with him. But when Batista feels someone touching his back, he turns around and goes to hit the person, only to stop midway realising that it was Ric Flair. Then moments later the lights in the arena go off. Then a Lighting Bolt hits the ramp, and then the same video that has played over the last few weeks plays, showing The Undertakers history in Hell in a Cell Matches. Showing highlights off his matches with Shawn Michaels, Mankind, Rikishi and Brock Lesnar.
We then cut back to the ring to see a furious Batista. Ric Flair who is in the ring tells Batista to not let the mind games get into his head, as Batista breathes heavily in anger. Batista then looks at the referee who is still in the ring, before charging up at him and hitting him with the Spear. Batista then picks up the referee and hits him with a Devastating Batista Bomb. Batista is not finished yet however as he lifts the referee back up, and connects with a Second Batista Bomb. During all this Ric Flair is shouting at Batista to stop and calm down. Batista ignores Flair however and goes to lift the referee up again, but tons of referees and Road Agents come down to the ring. Batista however starts cleaning house taking some of them out with Clotheslines and Spears. Batista then challenges the rest of them to get in the ring, and try him but they saw what just happened, and they know better. Ric Flair then starts shouting at Batista what the hell is he doing? Ric Flair tells Batista he needs to calm down, saying that he just has to wait nine days to get his hands on The Undertaker. Batista, who now seems calm, looks at Ric Flair and nods his head knowing he went a bit too far. Batista then leaves the ring without Ric Flair, as we go backstage.
We go backstage to see Edge watching the monitor, with his tag team partners tonight Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von in the background, with Marcus Cor Von thumping away at a punching bag as Edge smiles at what he has just seen.
Did you guys just see that? Even if Batista beats The Undertaker to get a title shot against me at Survivor Series, he is going to be suspended by then anyway the stupid Jock.
Edge then turns around to see Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von who is still boxing the punching bag.
Now we need to talk about our match tonight. I have got a proposition that will interest the two of you.
Ok whats that?
I want you two to take out Rey Mysterio tonight in our little 6 man tag team match.
Crowd Boos
So whats in it for us?

Edge shows off his World Heavyweight Title to both Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von.
So if you take out Rey Mysterio tonight, both of you will get will title shots in the future so you both in.

Cor Von:

Edge mouths Pounce Period giving a what the hell type look as we go to a commercial.
Commercial Break
Power of the Punch hits and William Regal makes his way down to the ring to some heat from the crowd, accompanied by the rest of the UKConnection consisting of Paul Burchill and Drew McIntyre. Regal shouts some orders to Burchill and McIntyre as they are in the ring, waiting for Regals opponent.
Slow Chemical hits and Kane comes out to a big pop from the crowd. Kane comes down to the ring with a big bandage wrapped around his knee. Kane steps into the ring, and sets off his pyros sending the UKConnection fleeing.
Match 5
Singles Match
Kane v William Regal with Drew McIntyre and Paul Burchill
We get a typical TV taping match here, with a lot of ground and pounding throughout this match, with Kane not really able to gain the momentum in the match thanks to Regals men McIntyre and Burchill. Every time Kane seemed to get in his stride, the numbers game came into play with one man on the outside distracting the referee, allowing one man to come in and attack Kane. Just like the last match there was a lot of work done onto an injured leg, this being Kanes with William Regal knowing the damage Finlay has done to it in recent weeks. Regal went to lock on the Boston Crab to Kane who grabbed him by the throat. Kane looked to go for a Chokeslam, but once again McIntyre and Burchill got involved, which allowed Regal to take Kane down with a Chop Block. Regal then finally got Kane into the Boston Crab, and after a bit of struggle Kane got to the ropes. The second half of the match was dominated by Kane and late on Kane started cleaning house on all three members of the UKConnection, taking them down with Clotheslines, Big Boots and Diving Clotheslines off the top rope. Kane then showed off some impressive strength connecting with a Double Chokeslam onto both McIntyre and Burchill. Kane then went for the Chokeslam, when Hornswoggle comes from underneath the ring and distracts the referee. Finlay then comes down with Shillelagh in hand and goes to hit Kane with it once again, but this time Kane sees him and hits him with a Big Chokeslam. But from behind William Regal rolls Kane up and grabs the bottom rope for leverage, and Hornswoggle lets go off the ref who makes the three count, giving William Regal a Huge Upset Victory!
Winner: William Regal in 9:23
After the match Kane immediately goes to attack Regal who flees out of the ring and celebrates with the recovering Drew McIntyre and Paul Burchill. Kane then looks at Finlay on the outside, who is holding onto his head after that Chokeslam. Finlays face of pain turns into a smirk, as he cost Kane the match tonight despite not doing what he intended to. As Kane looks down at Finlay in a very pissed off tone, MacMillitant hits and Teddy Long comes out with a mic in hand.
Finlay, Kane, you two want to fight so bad. Well I am going to give you that opportunity. Because at No Mercy, Finlay your going to go one on one with Kane!
The crowd pops the announcement, as Kane gives a very evil smirk knowing he can get his hands on Finlay at No Mercy. Finlay points at Kane, telling him he will see him at No Mercy.
No Mercy Commercial
Commercial Break
Dont Waste My Time hits and the New Breed consisting of Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von come down to the ring to some big heat from the crowd. Elijah Burke throws his towel into the crowd, as Cor Von comes down to the ring with a face of intensity.

Match 6
6 Man Tag Team Match
Elijah Burke, Edge and Marcus Cor Von v Matt Hardy, MVP and Rey Mysterio
We have a fairly long match to end the show, with these six men producing a very enjoyable six man Tag Team Match, with all six men getting a good amount of time in the ring to showcase their talents. The match started off with a big brawl between all six men, which saw the Heels flee to the outside, only to have Mysterio and Matt Hardy dive over the top rope to the outside ontop of them. The early stages of the match saw Rey Mysterio and Matt Hardy dominate the match, using their speed to the advantage. But some miscommunication between Tag Team Champions MVP and Matt Hardy occurred, when Cor Von sent Hardy crashing into MVP on the ring apron. This annoyed MVP and he and Hardy a few moments later started exchanging some words, only for Elijah Burke to come from behind with the Elijah Express to Matt Hardy. Matt Hardy then played the face in peril, as Burke, Cor Von and Edge started to work over Matt Hardy, keeping him as far away from his Tag Team Partners as possible. But Matt Hardy got his team back into the match, after he blocked a superplex attempt from Marcus Cor Von off the top rope, and he hit Cor Von with a Top Rope Side Effect. But Hardy was too weak too immediately make the cover and by the time he tagged in Mysterio, Cor Von had tagged in Edge. Edge had dodged Mysterio all throughout the match till now, and it proved to be no surprise as Mysterio took it to the WWE Champion. Mysterio dodged a Spear from Edge tripping him onto the bottom rope, and he went for the 619 only for Cor Von to get in the ring and takes Reys head off with a Clothesline. Things then turned ugly between the two teams, as another big six man brawl occurred between both teams. During the melee MVP went to hit Cor Von with the Tag Team Belt, but Cor Von ducked and MVP knocked out Hardy with the title belt. Marcus Cor Von and Burke then took MVP to the outside as Elijah Burke quietly tagged himself in. Mysterio however went straight for Edge, and once again set him up for the 619. Burke went to attack Rey from behind but also got tripped onto the Bottom Rope. Rey then hit both Edge and Burke with the 619, and then hit a Springboard Headbutt onto Burke and hooked the leg for the victory.
Winners: Matt Hardy, MVP and Rey Mysterio in 13:24
After the match Rey Mysterio celebrates in the ring, as Matt Hardy slowly gets to his feet and MVP gets into the ring. Straight away Matt Hardy gets in MVPs face and argues with MVP, about MVP hitting him with the Title Belt. The two men then start a shoving contest, and they are about to go at it when Rey Mysterio splits the two men up. MVP leaves the ring telling Hardy it was an accident, as out of nowhere Edge spears Rey Mysterio! Edge then floods the ring, smiling that he has gotten the final word. Hardy checks up on Mysterio, before looking at Cor Von and Burke, and then MVP on the outside of the ring.
Commercial Break
When we get back from commercial, Michael Cole and Tazz run down the No Mercy Card as the ring is set out for the Contract Signing.

Then we cut to the ring, where we see Teddy Long standing in the ring with a mic in hand.
In nine days time at No Mercy, we are going to witness the end of one of the most brutal feuds in WWE History. Because we are going to witness a HELL IN A CELL MATCH BETWEEN BATISTA AND THE UNDERTAKER!
Crowd Pops
These two men have fought many times this year, including at the grand daddy of em all Wrestlemania. But next Sunday will be the last time these two men will face one another. And the winner of this match will go onto Survivor Series, to face the winner of the match between Edge and Rey Mysterio for the World Heavyweight Championship!
Crowd Pops
And right now I would like to introduce the first combatant for this Contract Signing. This man is a former Tag Team Champion, a former Royal Rumble Winner, a two time World Heavyweight Champion. This man is the ANIMAL BATISTA!
I Walk Alone hits and Batista comes down to the ring to a huge mixed reaction from the crowd. Batista comes down to the ring, with tons of security guards coming behind obviously to make sure nothing happens between Batista and The Undertaker. Batista gets in the ring and immediately grabs the contract and signs it.
Thank you Batista. Now I would like to introduce you to his opponent. This man is a former Hardcore Champion, a multi time former Tag Team Champion, a former winner of the Royal Rumble and a five time former World Heavyweight Champion. This man is the PHENOM, THE UNDERTAKER!
Gong hits and The Undertaker comes down to the ring, to a huge reaction from the crowd. As The Undertaker gets into the ring, Batista immediately gets up to his face and the two men lock eyes.
Batista back off. If either of you two even dare to attack one another, the man responsible will be fined heavily and will be suspended!
Crowd Boos, as a big frown appears on Batistas face. Batista eventually backs off, as Teddy Long grabs the contract and gives it to The Undertaker. The Undertaker looks at Batista and gives him the cut throat signal, before signing the contract.
Teddy Long:
Thats it in nine days time Batista will face The Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell Match! Now do either of you men have anything to say?
Batista then suddenly snatches the mic off Teddy Long.
Yeah I do Teddy. You see I might not be able to attack The Undertaker, but you never said ..I couldnt attack YOU!
Then suddenly Batista kicks Teddy Long in the mid section and BATISTA BOMBS TEDDY THROUGH THE CONTRACT SIGNING TABLE! The Security Guards then flee into the ring and they all go after Batista, with one of them with handcuffs in his hands. Batista starts shouting at The Undertaker, daring him to hit him as he is handcuffed back. Batista then charges through the Security Guards with his handcuffs on, and he charges Undertaker into the corner. Before the two men can properly go at it, the Security Guards split the two men up with half of them taking Batista outside the ring. Undertaker goes to after him on the outside, but they block him off just like they do to Batista, not allowing him back into the ring. Then suddenly The Undertaker bounces off the ropes, AND HE DIVES OVER THE TOP ROPE ONTO BATISTA AND MANY SECURITY GUARDS ON THE OUTSIDE! The Undertaker then starts pounding away at Batista with closed fists, until the Security Guards can pull Taker off Batista. Smackdown then comes to an end, as Undertaker now at the top of the ramp stares down Batista at the bottom of the ramp.
Kid Kash beats Frankie Kazarian in 6:13
Chris Masters beats Chuck Palumbo in 6:18
The Undertaker beats Jamie Noble in 5:47
Batista and Ric Flair defeat Chavo Guerrero and Kenny Dykstra in 7:50
William Regal beats Kane in 9:23

On Jan. 15, the Rhode Island State Police issued an AMBER Alert for 6-year-old Daniel Britt. He is believed to be with his non-custodial mother Andria Britt. The suspect failed to show for a custody hearing, and a judge in Rhode Island determined there was a risk of immediate harm to the child.
The Rhode Island State Police contacted Washington State Patrol with information that the suspect may be in Washington state, and may now be in a vehicle with Washington plates.
The WSP has not issued an AMBER Alert in Washington at this time, but would like the public to be aware of the alert issued from Rhode Island and to call 911 immediately if they see the following child, suspect and/or vehicles: Andria Britt, white, 34–year-old female, is 5'5 with brown hair and brown eyes or Daniel Britt, white 6-year-old male, is 4'3, 50 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes. They could be in a Gray 1992 Chevrolet Astro Van with Washington registration ABR1512 or a Red Ford Focus with Rhode Island Registration 942649.

According to someone who wrote to me today, the words obrigados/obrigadas are only used in Portuguese to mean 'obligated', and are not used to thank more than one person. However, according to João Rosa, who wrote the article Obrigado – how to express your gratitude in Portuguese, these words are used to mean 'thank you' […]

Purses and sporrans
The word purse has an interesting history, I discovered today. It comes from the Old English word purs, from the Late Latin word bursa, which had a number of meanings of the centuries, including skin or leather; (money) bag; scrotum; exchange; and scholarship, allowance, and comes from the Greek word βύρσα (hide, leather). bursa is […]

In the Celtic languages when you want to say that you have/own/possess something, you say that the thing is at/by/with you, often with the prepositions merging with the pronouns. For example, this is how to say 'I have a book' in those languages: – Irish: Tá leabhar agam [lit. "is book at-me] – Scottish Gaelic: […]

Summer chicks and glowing coals
Last night we were talking about the Pili Palas on Anglesey, a butterfly centre, which also has birds, snakes and other exotic creatures. The name is a pun combining pili-pala (butterfly) and palas (palace) – it took me ages to realise this. We were trying to think of the words for butterfly in various other […]

Panceltic concert
Last night I went to a great concert in St John's (Balley Keeill Eoin) at which all the modern Celtic languages were sung and/or spoken, as well as English and French.

Best Uses
Comments about Zildjian K Dark Thin Crash Cymbal:
I bought an 18" model to be used as the only cymbal (along with hi-hat) on a mini kit that I take to house parties and acoustic jams. This baby does it all: great ride sound when playing the middle or edge, killer ping ride sound from the bell, and a sweet, controlled crash. It sounds great when played with a brush or "cool rod" as well. Most of my use is soft playing at low-volumes, but this cymbal is capable of being heard under any conditions. I love this thing so much! I fully recommend the 17" or 18" model.

Levy County is attempting to make the most of its road money by taking bids for a road project while the cost of asphalt has dropped.
Bids on work on a 5.8-mile strip of County Road 316 between County Road 337 to Northeast 20th Street are due at 10 a.m. Jan. 19. The project calls for widening and resurfacing the existing pavement and roadbed, and doing shoulder work. The work is estimated to take 210 days — or about 7 months.
The project is being funded by a Small County Outreach Program grant of $1.431,060.

Many Tech Marketers Continue To Doubt The Social Media Phenomenon
Posted by Peter O'Neill on July 1, 2011
I've had a difficult year, business-wise (this is Peter O'Neill). Oh, I have certainly been busy and travelled a lot — I'm not complaining about that. But I have found myself too often in the position of "let's shoot the messenger." Remember? I already complained about this back in May 2010, but the situation still hasn't changed yet: Many tech marketers still refuse to believe our numbers. Well, our 2011 Business Technology Social Technographics® results are now ready: I presented the European data in a Forrester Teleconferencea few weeks ago and soon our excellent English-language editors will finish off two reports from me:
- Showing the 2011 European data (see below).
- Discussing the question: Does age matter in social media usage?
My new colleague, Kim Celestre, is completing the other 2011 BT ST reports. As you can see, the European data especially continues to be compelling. Tech vendors who do not plan for local language social media engagements do this at their own peril. We also point out that there is a danger that many tech marketers are not engaging because they are asking for customer data too early in THEIR research cycle. The old marketing adage of always getting something back if you provide something needs to be rethought.
Because of the general skepticism I meet, I am continually on the lookout for other surveys that would substantiate (or not) our findings. So I was grateful to see this survey report from John Bottom of the marketing agency Base One (with a quaint Twitter handle of @basebot). The agency's Buyershpere 2011 surveyacross more countries in Europe, and more general B2B transactions (though 47% of that is BT) shows similar behavior.
Coincidently, a new book has just been published in Germany entitled "IT-Berater und soziale Medien" (IT Consultants and Social Media) where I also present our findings in my own chapter among a series of contributions from illustrious IT market experts in Germany. Perhaps that will also help.
By the way, does age matter?
Our survey shows that social media preferences, likes and dislikes, do vary across age groups. Also, that the cliché assumption about social media is "Sure, those are the younger employees but they are not involved in decision making" is definitely not true in either aspect. So watch out for that report or set up an inquiry now to discuss the findings.
Do you agree? Disagree? Are you involved in social media strategy and have had a good or bad experience? Please let us know. Perhaps you have executed a best practice that I can share with other Forrester clients. I'd love to hear from you on this.
Always keeping you informed! Peter
The picture will become clearer...
Comment from John Bottom (not verified) on Fri, 07/08/2011 - 08:00
Thanks for publishing this info – and also for citing our Buyersphere Report - much appreciated. I'm looking forward to seeing more research on this as time passes. In particular, I'd like to see traditional media preferences and attitudes in different countries compared to online media usage to find the correlations. That way, marketers like me could start to take educate guesses as to why B2B buyers do what they do. But in the meantime, it's terrific to see more documented proof of social media acceptance, even better with the help of the wonderful technographics ladder that we find so useful in presentations...

Marqise Lee Named Biletnikoff Award Semifinalist
Nov. 12, 2012
USC sophomore wide receiver Marqise Lee has been named one of 10 semifinalists for the Biletnikoff Award, presented to the nation's top receiver.
Lee's 98 receptions and 1,447 receiving yards in 2012 are the most in the nation. He is second nationally in all-purpose yardage (2,234). He has 13 receiving touchdowns (third most in the nation), along with 677 kickoff return yards (with a TD) and 110 rushing yards. He is averaging 17.1 yards every time he touches the ball in 2012. The average length of his 14 TDs in 2012 is 42.7 yards. He has had 14 plays of 40-plus yards in 2012 (including 10 of 50-plus yards and 7 of 70-plus yards).
He set Pac-12 records this year for most receiving yards in a game (345 at Arizona) and most kickoff return yards (251 versus Oregon).
He is nearing USC season records for receptions (111) and receiving yards (1,520). He is eighth on USC's career pass catching list (171 receptions) and eighth on USC's career kickoff return list (962 yards). His 24 career TDs is fourth most at USC (tied for 16th on the Pac-12 career list). He has 11 career 100-yard receiving games (with a school-record tying twice with 200 yards), including 7 in 2012. He had a 3-game stretch in 2012 (Arizona, Oregon, Arizona State) with 663 receiving yards that is the most prolific in USC history.
He has a school-record 8 career games with double digit receptions (including a school-record 7 in 2012) and 6 career contests with multiple TDs. He has had at least 8 receptions in 13 games in his career, including 9 in a row at one point (last 4 of 2011, first 5 of 2012). He has had 19 receiving TDs in the past 14 games, with at least 1 in 11 of those contests.
Three Biletnikoff Award finalists will be announced on Nov. 19, with the winner named on Dec. 6.

Originally written on Race Review Online | Last updated 9/22/14
There's now one race left between a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series title and Brad Keselowski. It would be the first for Keselowski's team organization Penske Racing and the first for the young driver. The title would put a happy ending to what was otherwise a torturous year for Roger Penske and his group. Penske brought back the IZOD IndyCar Series to Belle Isle in getting a group together to get the funding to stage the race. After a great weekend, the high of getting a race back was turned to embarrassment as the track had major issues and crumbled. The embarrassment caused a two-hour delay in race action as the race was taken off ABC to ESPN News for the final few laps. Due to darkness the race was shortened from the scheduled length and put a black eye on the event. Then, almost exactly a month later, Penske had yet another terrible problem when his NASCAR driver A.J. Allmendinger failed a drug test at Kentucky Speedway on June 30th. The announcement of the failed drug test came just a few hours before the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway in July and Penske had to scramble to get Sam Hornish Jr. down there from Charlotte to race the car. The circus following that took a toll on him and the team. If those two weren't bad enough, Penske had to deal with a messy incident where his two sons were arrested in a country club in the New England area for urinating on a woman and public intoxication. It was a huge embarrassment for him and his family and yet took another toll on the Penske patriarch. Finally, a month later Penske was facing his first IndyCar title since 2006 Hornish, as Will Power was protecting a good lead going into the final few races. Bad luck would put a 40+ lead with three races left to a 17-point lead going into the season finale. All Will Power had to do was just run near Ryan Hunter-Reay all night and he'd be the champion. Unfortunately, Power lost control of his car just over 50 laps in and wrecked in Turn 2. The team showed great effort to get him back out, but couldn't prevail in heartbreaking fashion. That was four horrible things to happen in one season for a great man and Keselowski could finally bring joy with a title this weekend in Miami. Photo courtesy of NASCARmedia.com The post NASCAR: Cup title would be closing joy for otherwise emotionally bad season for Penske appeared first on Race Review Online.

Hollywood's New Math: Who Needs Stars?
It was one of those films that my wife and I decided was a "must-see." Big stars Denzel Washington and John Travolta playing off one another in a tense, action-filled drama, the remake of the 1974 subway hijacking flick The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3. Apparently, the movie (which, by the way, was pretty darn good) didn't make a lot of other must-see lists. Even with its star power and a hefty advertising budget, it finished its opening weekend third, well behind a couple of leftover movies from prior weeks: the gross-out comedy The Hangover and Walt Disney's (DIS) animated film Up, whose tickets for the kiddie crowd—most of its audience—were half-price. At least Washington and Travolta fared better than Eddie Murphy: His lame comedy Imagine That opened to a measly $5 million.
Big stars just don't seem to be what they used to be. There was a time when a star would open a film with mega-numbers simply by putting his or her name on the marquee and showing his or her face in the trailers. Only two years back, Murphy's comedy Norbit opened to a stellar $34.2 million first weekend, according to the Web site Box Office Mojo. And Murphy isn't the only star whose offering this summer has bombed: Will Ferrell's big-budget Land of the Lost opened to lots of empty seats.
While most star vehicles have been withering at your local cineplex, the hot movies so far this year —Star Trek, Fast and Furious, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, The Hangover—feature things that blow up, comic book heroes, or actors who either belch or show lots of skin (or both).
The fact is, it seems you no longer need a big-name actor to open a movie. What happened? Chalk it up to the rise of tabloids, the paparazzi, online media, and reality TV. Today, stars are made almost hourly, whether it's Jon and Kate filing for divorce in front of a reality TV audience or Susan Boyle capturing worldwide attention after her singing captivated a British TV audience and made the rounds on YouTube. And once you're a star, your every move is followed by US Weekly, TMZ, or one of the other eyes-everywhere outlets. Maybe Julia Roberts was destined to flop in her role as a seductress in the wobbly heist flick Duplicity after shots of a matronly Roberts with her kids showed up in fan magazines months before the film opened. And ask Tom Cruise what happened to his star quality, thanks to Oprah and Matt Lauer.
It wasn't that long ago that a studio felt comfortable paying Julia $20 million—that's what she got for Erin Brockovich in 2000—because the star was the movie. Her every gesture and voice intonation was crucial. More important, folks would flock to hear her on the promotional circuit. Jay or David would lap her up on late night, with Matt and Meredith featuring her in the morning. If you were a studio executive, it was pretty much money in the bank that Julia, Tom, or Will Smith would open a movie for you.
Star Trek's star: J.J. Abrams
Don't get me wrong. Big-name actors can still open a movie. But they're no longer crucial. In bygone years, says Paul Dergarabedian, box office analyst for Hollywood.com, studios would have scrambled to find a big-name star to play Captain James T. Kirk and other crew members for this summer's Star Trek. Instead, Paramount (VIA) selected a cast of relative nobodies, amped up the special effects, and "made it all about J.J. Abrams," milking his following from his work co-creating the ABC TV show Lost. Moviegoers, say Dergarabedian, take their cues not from the stars but from the trailers they see on cable TV, the Internet, even their cell phones. "Today it's the concept of the movie that motivates folks to go the movie theater, not the star who's in it," he says.
That may be one reason why studios are finally starting to realize that they don't need to pay stars $20 million a film or give them a big chunk of the revenues, as they had reflexively done for years. Julia Roberts now gets closer to $12 million. Travolta, who got $20 million for the fire disaster movie Ladder 49 in 2004, is said to have received half that for his role in The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3. Still, that's more than the entire cast of Universal's (GE) Fast and Furious took home for their flick, which grossed more than $155 million—or about $100 million more than Pelham, which cost $100 million to make, in part because of the hefty salaries of Washington and Travolta.
The argument has always been that a big-name star was needed to help sell to foreign audiences, which can account for as much as 40% of a big film's eventual revenues. And maybe they do. But with foreign and DVD sales starting to suffer, studios have put the screws to their big-name talent in other ways. Harrison Ford, who traditionally gets a healthy piece of overall revenues for any film in which he stars, was forced (along with director Steven Spielberg and producer George Lucas) to collect his piece of the action from the latest Indiana Jones flick only after the studio started to show profits.
The heavy reliance on no-name, special effects-driven movies might simply be a summer phenomenon, of course. And there have been some notable films with big stars that have opened this summer. Tom Hanks did help open the religious thriller Angels and Demons, the year's ninth-best-opening film. Then again, the most eagerly awaited offering of the coming Christmas box office bonanza is Jim Cameron's sci-fi film Avatar, which stars no-name actors Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana. It does, however, have some great special effects.

As major auto shows go, the 2012 New York Auto Show was a bit of a write off for Audi. There were no world or even domestic debuts for the brand. Maybe it was timing or maybe it was simply importance of this event for the brand but the lack of new models stood in stark difference to major shows like Frankfurt, Paris, Geneva or Detroit where Audi table scraps are sometimes more than other

DVD players capture the market
It seems kids, who queued for hours to watch the film at cinemas, now want to watch it all over again at home.
DVDs are capturing the market because you do not just get your favourite film, you also get subtitles, sound tracks, directors' comments on how the movie was made and scenes deleted from the final version.
Features such as these are encouraging millions of people to part with their money.
Beating video recorders
Over the last five months, 900,000 DVD players were bought in the UK alone.
Such huge sales mean DVDs have taken just three years to reach the 3 million mark.
It took video recorders seven years before they achieved similar sales.
Jason Mather of Warner Bros Home Video says the industry is booming, and that sales are set to reach 4 million by the end of the year.
He claims DVD is a good format that offers good quality and games for kids.
He feels people are also being won over because of a drop in prices.
High prices
DVD players now cost around £180-200, compared with nearly £500 three years ago.
The price of films on DVD has also fallen.
But the editor of What Video and TV, Adrian Justins, is slightly less optimistic.
He feels video recorders still have at least 10 years left in them because DVDs that both play and record are still expensive, costing more than £700, compared with players which cost around £200.
That, he claims, means people either need two bits of equipment, or use DVDs just to play films, rather than record from the TV.
He says that until DVD recorders come down in price people will stick with the video equipment they have.
And that seems to be the case.
Nine times more UK homes have video recorders than have DVD players.

Bugging me!
I have a White Diamond SRX and although the car stays very clean, the bugs all over the front of the vehicle are a real pain to clean off. All of my previous cars were a dark color so I never saw all the marks the bugs left. Does anyone out there know of a product that works well and doesn't damage the finish?
Do they make a bra for the SRX?
I don't know how that would look though.
Re: Bugging me!
My BlueChip shows all the bugs too---especially the yellow gutted ones!
There are bug remover products out there, but I use non-amoniated window cleaner in a trigger spray bottle. Wet the area for a few minutes, and rub off the bugs with a kitchen sponge (soft) that is wetted with water.
Most bras will rub your paint off over time. Unless you're a D cup or over, keep them slings off your car!

Re: Bugging me!
I, too, have a white diamond
I've always used Bug & Tar remover (turtle wax?) and have never had any damage to my paint. For a scrubber, I use a SOFT plastic woven pad that is designed and sold for scrubbing dishes. It is fast & effective. Again, never any paint damage for me.

Re: Bugging me!
3M manufactures a plastic film that can cover painted surfaces. It is precut by a number of companies and sold in kits. There is another thread regarding marks on door sills that gives contact details for that product.
Re: Bugging me!
I also have a white diamond ( ), and have the Clearshield brand "clear bra" installed. It's basically a clear film that covers almost all the painted surfaces at the front of the car, 1/3 of the hood, and the side mirrors. I've noticed that it's a little easier to wash the bugs off of the film than the paint. With the SRX being so boxy, it seems like a magnet for dead bugs and rock chips, which is the main reason I got the film installed. I was tired of touching up small rock chips on my previous car. Anyways, I got the film professionally installed for less than $280 at a local tint shop. With all the highway travel I do, feel that it's worth it. And you can't really see that it's there unless you look real close.
I agree with sgilbert about not putting a regular bra on our cars. Crud will get in between the bra and the paint and scratch it all up.
Re: Bugging me!Originally Posted by vdo
I will look into that film, I am a little leary about putting it on the hood though. Maybe a little cleaner and a little work every few days is the only option. I still think the White Diamond is a great looking color for that car.
Thanks for the info.
