DENTON — The Sulphur Springs Wildcats fired a first-round 329, for ninth place 36 strokes off the pace at the Region II, Class 4A golf regional tournament.The event, held at Robson Ranch, was led after one round by Frisco Centennial's 293 score which was four strokes ahead of McKinney's second place 297.
Sulphur Springs individual golf scores include:
Chance Byrd............................80
Cort Walker..............................81
Alex Buchanan........................83
Kason Childress.......................85
Daniel Dixon............................91
The Wildcats are behind 13-4A champion Pine Tree a team which turned in a 321 score.
"It's a tough field and we knew that going in," said Sulphur Springs head boys golf coach Ross Funk. "I was pleased with our 329 score. We can do a little better, we would like to try to break 320. That would be our low score for the year."
Funk continued, "The course got a little windy at the end of the first round, it's supposed to be moderate weather today. It would be nice to move up in the standings. We are not really shooting for one particular place, but to break 320 would be great. That's our goal. It will depend on the how we play and the conditions."
Sulphur Springs teed off at 9:10 a.m. today at the 6,725-yard, par 72 Wildhorse Ranch Course for the final round of the event.

Red Hot Chili Peppers supporting charity with Super Bowl performance
Listen to The Red Hot Chili Peppers on iHeartRadio
The Red Hot Chili Peppers are using their Super Bowl appearance to raise money for charity.
Drummer Chad Smith is auctioning off the kit he'll play during the halftime show. Following the performance, the custom-built Pearl set will be reassembled into two separate drum kits -- with one featuring the NFC logo and the other getting the AFC logo.
Each kit will include five drums, a hi hat, and four cymbals along with pedals and stands. Smith will also autograph the drumsticks he uses during the halftime show and two other sets of sticks he uses in rehearsals, which will each be auctioned separately.
Bidding on the drum kits and sticks is under way now, and closes on February 7th at 10:00 p.m. Eastern. Money raised is going to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers will play the Super Bowl 48 halftime show with Bruno Mars. The game takes place this Sunday in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and will air live on Fox.

History and Background
The University of California, Irvine (UCI) CADC, established in 1989, operates within the Institute for Memory Impairments and Neurological Disorders located on the UCI main campus. One of the premiere assessment centers in Orange County, the UCI CADC provides specialized diagnostic and treatment services to optimize the cognitive, functional, and behavioral abilities of individuals with Alzheimer's disease (AD) to improve health care delivery and quality of life for both patients and caregivers. The UCI CADC serves some 326,900 individuals age 65 and older living in Orange County, more than 10% of the county's total population. The UCI CADC also provides services to individuals living in San Bernadino, Riverside, Southern Los Angeles, and Northern San Diego Counties. As the risk of developing AD increases dramatically with age – to nearly 50% of individuals 85 or older - many of the county's seniors and their families will unfortunately be affected by this degenerative disorder. Given the large number of Orange County seniors at risk of developing cognitive impairment, the UCI CADC is actively addressing this problem by offering patients and their families access to state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment services, novel clinical trials, specialized support groups, and educational programs about AD and the related dementias.
Clinical Services
Early identification of cognitive decline and AD is critical so that available treatments, which are most effective before extensive damage to the brain has occurred, can be started, and families can plan for the future, take advantage of available community services, and develop effective coping strategies. UCI CADC clinicians bring state of the art methods to accurately differentiate between normal aging, Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), and dementia. The UCI CADC also brings state of the art culturally sensitive methods to assist English, Spanish, Chinese, and Vietnamese speaking individuals and their families through the diagnostic process. In fact, approximately a third of all new patients seeking diagnostic services at the UCI CADC over the past 10 years have been of minority background.
Economic Development and Professional Training
The UCI CADC provides the basic infrastructure to attract new resources into the local economy leveraging the investment of the state by approximately 6-fold or more. These include support from industry for clinical trials, specialized research, student training, and various Federal and private Foundation grants. The UCI CADC translates basic findings from the laboratory into general practice within the broader health care community in a cost-effective fashion. Better behavioral and pharmaceutical interventions must be developed in tandem.
The CADCs have helped to build a vital workforce for the growing needs of the State addressing the current and changing demographic needs in California. This includes the training of physicians, nurses, physician's assistants, health care professionals, and research investigators. Since 2000, the UCI CADC has trained hundreds of professionals and students through fellowships, residencies, internships, rotations, clerkships, continuing medical education courses, academic classes, lectures, and presentations. Through their training programs the CADCs have shaped the practice of doctors, nurses, psychologists, social workers and other providers who now staff hospitals and clinics throughout the state making daily life more manageable for thousands of people who struggle with the demands of caregiving and the ravages of the AD.
Community Education
The UCI CADC has also educated the lay public, caregivers and families on cognitive decline, prevention strategies, and the management of those afflicted by MCI and AD. The UCI CADC provides many forums on AD education and also serves to integrate education opportunities in the community. The community looks to and depends on the UCI CADC for high quality education.
The limitations in the current health care delivery environment and constrained budgets in both the public and private sectors require solutions that are cost-effective for patients and their families, as well as for businesses. The Centers continue to provide education, provide new opportunities for improving the quality of life of the elderly, and reduce the burden for those with dementia in California.
Referrals from physicians, other healthcare providers, and agencies are welcome. No referral is necessary for a memory assessment. We specialize in the evaluation of memory loss, Alzheimer's disease and related illnesses such as frontotemporal lobe dementia and vascular dementia, and mild cognitive impairment. We have the expertise for complex or unusual cases, and are happy to provide second opinions.
Costs for diagnostic evaluations and professional services may vary on an individual basis. Please contact us for more information. Often, tests performed outside of our CADC may be necessary to complete a diagnostic workup, such as laboratory tests and/or brain scans.

Opportunities to Participate in Research
Our Center is part of the UC Irvine Alzheimer's Disease Research Center. We refer patients to clinical trials evaluating new ways of treating and diagnosing Alzheimer's disease. We also refer patients to studies of aging, and how different factors may protect against or accelerate mental decline in old age. Depending on your eligibility you may be invited to take part in one or more of these studies.

One Direction's Niall Horan denies date with Katy Perry
Listen to One Direction on iHeartRadio | Listen to Katy Perry on iHeartRadio
Katy Perry may be fond of her "teenage dreams," but she isn't pursuing any actual teenagers. Rumors about a possible dinner date with One Direction's Niall Horan are being slammed after the two were seen leaving the same restaurant in New York Wednesday night. Niall cleared things up on "On Air with Ryan Seacrest" the next morning.
Niall has been vocal about his celebrity crush on the pop star, who is nine years his senior. Back in October, he sent her a tweet reacting to her performance on "X Factor," asking "Will you marry me?" Then, last month, he ran into Katy backstage at an event in Tokyo, where he tweeted a picture with her with the caption "She said yes! It's happening!"
Their fake Twitter romance goes back as far as last year, after Katy and Niall exchanged an onstage kiss when she was presenting the boys with an award at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards.
But it looks like things are strictly platonic between the two singers. Niall remains one of only two single One Direction members, and Katy seems to be getting serious with John Mayer.

School Bans the Word Easter! Really?
As heard on Mike & Mindy..."Stupid Is As Stupid Does"... Boys and girls at an Alabama elementary school will still get to hunt for eggs – but they can't call them 'Easter Eggs' because the principal banished the word for the sake of religious diversity. "We had in the past a parent to question us about some of the things we do here at school," said Heritage Elementary School principal Lydia Davenport. "So we're just trying to make sure we respect and honor everybody's differences."

" ... He has made night and day subservient to you, and the sun and moon and stars, all subject to His command…" (Surat an-Nahl, 12)
The Milky Way Galaxy, commonly referred to as just the Milky Way, is only one of galaxies among the 25 billions of observable galaxies in the world…250 billions of galaxies…Just think of this figure that we simply pronounce in the blink of an eye…If you count one galaxy in every one second, counting all of them would take 10.000 years. Furthermore, within a time span of 10,000 years, the number of stars that we shall count as a single second will be around 200 billion. The sun, on the other hand, is only one of these stars.
All the features of the sun are tuned for life in this world: its average size as a star, its appropriate distance to the Earth; the features of the light it emits; the conformity of the rate of its elements to our life etc. All features of our sun, which is the source of light and heat, is in a measure our Lord tuned for us with His infinite mercy. All-Mighty Allah, the Creator of our universe, relates this us in a verse of the Qur'an:
" ... He has made night and day subservient to you, and the sun and moon and stars, all subject to His command…" (Surat an-Nahl, 12)
Just as how our Earth revolves around the sun, all the stars in the galaxy revolve around the center of the galaxy. Approximately 200 billion stars revolving around this center have different orbits. Sun and the Earth are continuously revolving around this center. The completion of one tour of this encircling is calculated to last for 230 million years.
The sun that is protected
Professor Guillermo Gonzales, an astronomer who makes research on the orbit of the Sun, noticed that in its voyage the Sun is protected from some dangerous zones in the galaxy. Gonzales states that under this special orbit of the Sun there are some special features that distinguish it from other similar stars. The two dangerous zones to which Gonzales attracts attention are the center of the galaxy and the spiral branches that are located outside our galaxy.
According to this, if we were close to the center of the galaxy;
In the center of the galaxy there exists a black hole three million times bigger than the size of the sun. With its amazing attraction force this black hole absorbs all stars. Scientists state that the absorption of our Earth by such a black hole of this size will last only a second.
Apart from the existence of this very dangerous force of attraction, the center of the galaxy emits very hazardous radiation. This radiation originates from extreme warming while the material making up the giant stars is absorbed by the mass of the black hole.
(Harun Yahya, The Creation of the Universe)
If we were on the branches of the spiral;
The Sun is also protected against the spiral branches located on the outer circle of the galaxy. These spiral branches are the birth places of many stars where giant stars are located. With their total mass, these giant stars render the spiral braches of the galaxy an intensive zone of attraction. These branches have an impact on comets in the Solar system, rendering each one of them a threat for the Earth.
There are trillions of comets in the Solar system. These are located in the most outer circle and enclose the entire system like a globe. These comets are normally on the orbit around the Sun but in the case of an appearance of a mass, it can go off the orbit. However, as the Gonzales states, the two features of the Sun protects us against the bombardment. The first one is the speed of the Sun. The second miraculous feature of the Sun protecting us against the spiral branches is the shape of its orbit. Unless other stars at its age with an ellipsis orbit, the Sun has a circular one. All these reveal that the location and orbit of the Sun are specially designed: In one verse of the Qur'an, Allah relates: "By Heaven with its oscillating orbits" (Surat adh-Dhariyat, 7)
As is seen, the findings related about the orbit of the Sun that could only be discovered by modern science were revealed 14 centuries ago in the Qur'an. These scientific researches once again reveal that the Qur'an is the word of Allah.


text: Hi all! I'm new to this forum and have only owned Rose's cake books for a few weeks now so I'm only starting to read and bake my way through them… but I'm baking a dessert spread for an all-white themed birthday party next weekend and would like to include either the Heavenly Coconut Seduction Cake or the Southern (Manhattan) Coconut Cake. However, I'd like to make cupcakes instead of a cake. Has anyone made either of these cakes in cupcake form? If so, how did they turn out (i.e. any recipe adjustments necessary)? I'm not sure I'll have time to try it out before the party, so any help you have would be so appreciated! I'm also going to attempt the Lemon Meringue cake which looks a little daunting…. that one I'll have to try this weekend and see how it goes.

Methods and Limitations
We estimated the number of hospital discharges due to stroke among persons with diabetes using data from the National Hospital Discharge Survey (NHDS), National Center for Health Statistics, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. NHDS collects data on hospital discharges from a sample of short-stay, nonfederal hospitals in the United States. Data collected include information on patients' age, race, sex, and length of stay, and on seven diagnoses (one primary and six secondary diagnoses) and four surgical procedures. Methods used for conducting the survey have been described previously.1, 2
Among discharges having diabetes (ICD-9 code 250) as a secondary diagnosis, discharges for which the first-listed diagnosis was stroke (ICD-9 codes 430-434, 436-438) were estimated. Rates were calculated using resident population estimates from the Census and estimates of the population with diabetes from the National Health Interview Survey.3 Rates were adjusted to the 2000 U.S. Standard Population using three age groups (0–64, 65–74, and 75+).
Hospitalizations involving persons with diabetes are underestimated because long-term and federal hospitals are not included in the NHDS sample. Race-specific discharges are particularly underestimated because a substantial proportion of discharges are missing racial classification and missing values for race are not imputed.4
Because NHDS samples hospital discharges and not individual persons, NHDS hospital discharge rates may not necessarily reflect rates per person; that is, persons who are hospitalized more than once in a year may be counted more than once.
In 1983, Medicare instituted a prospective payment system that has influenced both hospitalization practices and disease reporting on discharge records.5

Dear Carolyn • I guess I'm old-school because my 23-year-old daughter has moved in with her boyfriend and I have concerns about almost everything. On one hand, I know she is an adult and, even though I think it is morally wrong for two people to have sex before marriage, I will need to accept her choice. On the other hand, I know problems could arise no matter how much they think everything will be all right. She knows my basic feelings and, since she now lives over 4,000 miles away, things can be a bit tricky when we discuss her new living situation. My question is whether I should warn her about the legal issues. She might take it the wrong way. I did find a nice website that covers the issues pretty well. Would it be better for me to send it to her without letting her know about it, ask her if she wants to see it then send it only if she agrees, or back off?
Hawaii Dad
Dear Hawaii Dad • That depends. "Problems could arise no matter how much they think everything will be all right." This is true of cohabiting, yes. It's also true of getting married, having children, driving a car, riding in a car, being exposed to the sun, having a job, not having a job, crossing the street, eating food or taking a shower. If you believed your daughter wasn't taking an adult approach to these other risks, then how would you respond would you suggest websites that discuss reasonable precautions she can take? Would you decide the potential benefit to her outweighed the possible cost to your relationship for appearing meddlesome? Possibly most important what's the precedent? Have you typically sent her articles explaining, say, the increasing severity of the weather in her part of the country, or new research linking a favorite food of hers to cancer? If so, then, sure, send her the link to that website. Asking whether she wants it would be a respectful touch. But if you are moved to send cautionary links only when your daughter makes decisions that don't align with your values, then expect her to interpret or recognize? your motive as an attempt to control, not protect, and back off.

Hey everyone I write a blog about the stock music industry, and the overall goal is to help new musicians. I really want to to get some feedback from Audio Jungle authors about 16 bit vs 24 bit. The overall idea of the post is the discussion about 16 bit vs 24 bit, and I would love to get solid opinions other then my own. I'd like to discuss these things in the post:
Is 16 bit going to die off? Is 24 bit the new buzz like HD on TV? Do buyers need 24 bit? Is it worth it to format your music in 24 bit? Who needs 24 bit music?
Basically questions like that. If you want me to directly quote you in my blog can you put your reply in question marks like this. "I don't think 16 bit will bla bla". What I want to do is put your quote in, and then your screen name (which would be a link to your profile on Audio Jungle). So if you want your real name in there too make sure to put that in the post like this. ex)
"I think 16 bit will bla bla" Michael Musco.
That way I will know it's ok to quote you in my blog, and I will write it up like Michael Musco, MuscoSound (link) feels "16 bit will bla bla". If you just want to respond and discuss 16 bit and 24 bit in this thread that's awesome too. I will not quote anyone without the quotation marks. I don't want to plug the name of my blog, but if anyone that has a quote and would like to read it, feel free to shoot me an email.
I am hoping the article will be entertaining, and informative. At the same time hopefully the links back to your profiles might help with a little free marketing. Thanks so much in advance!
ps. If anyone is reading this and is a buyer I would really appreciate your input
Well, for starters 24-bit is not new at all. If it ever had a "new buzz" phase, it was, if I recall correctly, back in 2004-ish when you began to see "affordable" 24 bit interfaces. And it might have had its fair share of "OMG this is the latest so I have to get it" market for a while. But then it calmed down and it became just another option.
I don't think the change from 16-bit to 24-bit is as important as HD in video. HD video really is immensely superior to the older standard resolutions, and anyone can notice the huge visual difference immediately.
With 24-bit I think it depends on what you're doing. I've never thought to myself "God I wish I could record this in 24-bit, it'd be so much better!" when I'm recording, say, some heavy metal stuff.
On the other hand there have been times when I have genuinely wished for 24-bit resolution recording and/or playback. Examples would be, while making an ambient piece, or while trying to capture/play the complete decay of a cymbal hit, down to the lowest amplitude of its release. Or foley recording.
For those kinds of things you really notice the difference. That is, you really notice the limits of 16 bits.
Sometimes the extra resolution can even be annoying. There's been times while recording interviews outdoors when I've switched camera mics from 24 down to 16 bit, because the extra resolution just captures a lot of unwanted background noise.
Hope that made sense. Basically I think it's not a fashion or a buzz (too old for that anyway). You either need it or you don't, based on what you're trying to achieve. It depends on your use case.
I can only say that I noticed lower quality perfectly as my tracks to convert 24 to 16 bit, it's frustrating. Let alone to pass them to Mp3.
Just as a concept – digital recording is taking samples from the actual sound. It's the same with the photography. Imagine a curve which starts in point A and goes to point B. While in reality that curve contains an infinity of points, it can only be described with a fixed number of points when translated in digital. You can never have enough pixels to perfectly describe the curve, but the more you have, the more you are getting close to the real thing. It's the same with music. The more information you can use, the more realistic output you can achieve. This is why 24 bits it's better than 16 bits. This is why 48khz it's better than 44khz.
I think that the right word to describe 24 bit is that it is more accurate than 16 bit, but therefore not better. The bit-depth has, contrary to what many think, nothing to do with the resolution in function of the time. In other words a 24 bit recording can be much more dynamic than 16 bit but doesn't capture the frequency of the sound waves better.
24 bit comes in very handy when you are recording at a lower volume so you loose less of the dynamics. But when you start compressing and limiting and stuff you loose the wide range of dynamics anyway.
So is 24 really better? Maybe, maybe not. It's subjective. But in my honest opinion, if even de big guys at record labels keep exporting 16 bit why should we do different. Besides, most technology today (ipods, hifi,...) doesn't even support 24 bit.

Exactly. Higher bit rates are great for recording/tracking to capture dynamic range. If the final mix is going to be squashed to hell though, there won't be any benefit from exporting the final mix at 24 bit over 16.
In my opinion, while TV's and cinemas have been increasing there resolution and image quality, the fidelity of most music has been decreasing. Reason for that being the way a lot of people listen to music now, car radios and phone/mp3 players with earbuds. Car radios and earbuds are not the best place to listen to a piece of dynamic music given the amount noise around cars, and that earbuds are just terrible devices to play anything back on. So, mixes are mastered (or re-mastered) to have less and less dynamic range as well as filling up as much of the frequency range as possible. Doing this insures that no matter what device your listener choses, your track will be easily heard and that nothing gets lost in the mix. Now that music is mostly stored digitally, file compression formats (specifically mp3) also play a role and they do have some diminishing effect on resulting of the mix (losing higher frequencies and I think so lower ones as well). Those things combined are killing fidelity in most music genres.
So 'HD' audio formats probably won't catch on until the listening environments/devices of average people changes for the better.
My 2 cents.
Those are some really awesome opinions. Thanks for sharing them. I wonder though about as a marketing angle though of it? Do you think 24 bit has a "selling" advantage? I mean it's hard for me to really be able to answer that because I rarely if ever know where my music ends up, and how it was used in a production. I guess my question is best answered by buyers because I don't know what software they are using, and if it supports 24bit. Take a hypothetical example) Audio Jungle Announces stunning 24bit Category. In that hypothetical do you think a buyer might look at that and be like oh ya I have to check that out, or do you think it's not really an issue. I wonder from a marketing angle if 24 bit, could be a buzz word like "in HD".

It absolutely could be used as a selling angle. It would be higher definition so I assume the customer would automatically think that's 'better'. Wether it really makes a difference or not depends on what they are buying. I wouldn't think it would be a major selling point though because the difference would most likely not be immediately perceivable. I do think some would buy into it though, even if it's only a sort of placebo effect.
However, music is sold based on it's content and not on fidelity. If two tracks have great content, I don't see having 'superior' audio quality being a deciding factor to licensing the track as long as the competing track is of standard audio quality. It will come down to what the music's purpose is, and musical content would decide that.
As an experienced sound engineer, i would say 48khz/24bit is an optimal resolution. And here are are several reasons: 1. most video codecs encode audio data in 48/24 or 48/16 (Dolby Digital for example). 2. Discrete waves summing issue: Higher resolution is better for mixing, because mixing a lot of tracks in low resolution (44.1/16) causes digital noises. In this case, studio standard 24/96 is the best. 3. Downsampling is always better than upsampling, because of interpolation. Of course, when we are talking about a few tracks and a good sound software, there are no problems with 44.1/16. This resolution completele covers potential of the human perception. But high resolution is always better than low By the way, studios i work for ask me to mix all data in 48/24.
Noise-n-Music saidHaha, so far from the truth. 44.1 / 16 bit was not more or less than a compromise made by the industy in the 1980s. Although mots of listeners/consumers (and sound engineers!!) got used to it, it's ridiculous to say that it covers human perception.
This resolution completele covers potential of the human perception.

Comments about BJs Wholesale Club Tully's Coffee House Blend Coffee K-Cup Pods, 80 ct.:
I loved this coffee. I also loved Tullys Kona blend. Unfortunately this is the second blend of Tullys that has been discontinued and I am sick about it. I have no idea what coffee to try next. I've read great reviews for the house blend and don't know why it's been discontinued. I've made numerous calls to Keurig Green Mountain.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Human Centipede II Rejected By BBFC
Update: Now with response from Tom Six
Last year's The Human Centipede was mad, bad and really quite grotesque. But this year's sequel, imaginatively called The Human Centipede II, has been rejected by the British Board of Film Classification on the basis that it is "sexually violent and potentially obscene". This means that the DVD cannot be legally supplied anywhere in the UK.
The original film was released, uncut, as an 18 last year. This one, however, apparently has "unacceptable material" throughout which cannot be remedied with cuts. The filmmakers have six weeks in which to appeal against the decision.
It's worth noting, before we get all up in arms, that this is a relatively rare decision for the BBFC, who outlined their reasons at some length and stressed that the full Board was in on this one. The full reasoning is below - but if you're of a sensitive disposition even this may be rather unpleasant.
"The first film dealt with a mad doctor who sews together three kidnapped people in order to produce the 'human centipede'of the title. Although the concept of the film was undoubtedly tasteless and disgusting it was a relatively traditional and conventional horror film and the Board concluded that it was not in breach of our Guidelines at '18'. This new work, The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence), tells the story of a man who becomes sexually obsessed with a DVD recording of the first film and who imagines putting the 'centipede' idea into practice. Unlike the first film, the sequel presents graphic images of sexual violence, forced defecation, and mutilation, and the viewer is invited to witness events from the perspective of the protagonist. Whereas in the first film the 'centipede' idea is presented as a revolting medical experiment, with the focus on whether the victims will be able to escape, this sequel presents the 'centipede' idea as the object of the protagonist's depraved sexual fantasy.
The principal focus of The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) is the sexual arousal of the central character at both the idea and the spectacle of the total degradation, humiliation, mutilation, torture, and murder of his naked victims. Examples of this include a scene early in the film in which he masturbates whilst he watches a DVD of the original Human Centipede film, with sandpaper wrapped around his penis, and a sequence later in the film in which he becomes aroused at the sight of the members of the 'centipede' being forced to defecate into one another's mouths, culminating in sight of the man wrapping barbed wire around his penis and raping the woman at the rear of the 'centipede'. There is little attempt to portray any of the victims in the film as anything other than objects to be brutalised, degraded and mutilated for the amusement and arousal of the central character, as well as for the pleasure of the audience. There is a strong focus throughout on the link between sexual arousal and sexual violence and a clear association between pain, perversity and sexual pleasure. It is the Board's conclusion that the explicit presentation of the central character's obsessive sexually violent fantasies is in breach of its Classification Guidelines and poses a real, as opposed to a fanciful, risk that harm is likely to be caused to potential viewers.
David Cooke, Director of the BBFC said: "It is the Board's carefully considered view that to issue a certificate to this work, even if confined to adults, would be inconsistent with the Board's Guidelines, would risk potential harm within the terms of the VRA, and would be unacceptable to the public.
"The Board also seeks to avoid classifying material that may be in breach of the Obscene Publications Acts 1959 and 1964 (OPA) or any other relevant legislation. The OPA prohibits the publication of works that have a tendency to deprave or corrupt a significant proportion of those likely to see them. In order to avoid classifying potentially obscene material, the Board engages in regular discussions with the relevant enforcement agencies, including the CPS, the police, and the Ministry of Justice. It is the Board's view that there is a genuine risk that this video work, The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence), may be considered obscene within the terms of the OPA, for the reasons given above."
We emailed Tom Six for a response to the BBFC's decision and received the following quote, which we present here in full. The censoring of the F-word, ironically, is Six's.
"Thank you BBFC for putting spoilers of my movie on your website and thank you for banning my film in this exceptional way. Apparently I made an horrific horror-film, but shouldn't a good horror film be horrific? My dear people it is a f**cking MOVIE. It is all fictional. Not real. It is all make-belief. It is art. Give people their own choice to watch it or not. If people can't handle or like my movies they just don't watch them. If people like my movies they have to be able to see it any time, anywhere also in the UK."
So there you have it. What do you think: saving us all from ourselves or censorship gone too far? Or do you even care that we won't be able to see this particular opus? Speak your brains below...

Ratings for Dr. Stephen P. Kundell
Dr. Kundell is the best doctor I have ever met..My son is very happy with him, as am I..I wish he was a doctor for us "grown ups"..I would highly highly recommend him..
Dr. Kundell has been the pediatrician for all three of my children (two of the boys are adults now) and he has been one of the most knowledgeable, positive and enthusiastic doctors we could ever hope to provide care to our children. He makes you feel like you're a member of his extended family from the first visit. His staff is friendly and engaging.
He is just awesome ! he has been my son's pediatrician for 5 months now.
dr. kundell is hands-down the best pediatrician i've ever seen. my 3 kids always get the best, most thorough care from the doctor and he always finds time to see my kids, no matter how last minute. he stays current with the latest info (trust me, i quiz him constantly) and has a massive amount of knowledge in his field. he is awesome.
Dr Kundell ROCKS! He has seen my baby since the day she was born & I loved him so much I have my 10 year old seeing him too. When he looks at the kids you can see in his eyes he still finds them amazing, like someone seeing something for the first time. During exams on my baby instead of talking to us, he talks to her. He has the most amazing facts about whatever we are in there for. He takes the time to chat a bit and make us feel welcome. He did a circumcision on my friends baby and she mentioned my name & right off the top of his head he remembered my baby's name. That proved to me that he cares enough about his kids to remember their names. I have to admit that I find any reason to take my kids in to see him. He is a wonderful, warm, pleasant man and hands down the best baby Dr. I have ever met! I only wish he could be my Dr.
My 4 year old son has been a patient for 2 years. Dr. Kundell has a wonderful way with children. He enters the room and engages with something interesting and moves on to being a doctor once he sees that the child is comfortable. His exams are thorough and I appreciate that he provides screening for eyes and brain activity. I've never had to wait. The staff is pleasant. I'd recommend him to any parent with a small child.

Surat al-Furqan,
"The Messenger says, ..", the Messenger, the Prophet. This refers to our Prophet (saas), of course, but also to Hazrat Mahdi (as) in the End Times. "My Lord, my people treat this Qur'an as something to be ignored." In other words, they did not regard the Qur'an as sufficient, they did not act according to the Qur'an. They acted in the light of nonsense, instead. So what will Allah do? He will inflict punishment. "In this way We have assigned to every Prophet an enemy from among the evildoers." Allah says He has appointed a dajjal (antichrist). "But your Lord is a sufficient guide and helper."
"When Heaven is split apart in clouds," For example, we will look at the atmosphere and that blue layer will disappear. There will be a black hole and the sky will be seen through it, insha'Allah. There will be a gigantic tear, gaps will appear in the sky. The black of night will be seen through the blue. The blue will be torn apart, the clouds will be torn apart. "...and the angels are sent down rank upon rank;" the angels will come down in visible form, since the need for free will has been removed. Winged angels in visible form will descend to Earth when the Day of Reckoning begins. "The Kingdom that Day will belong in truth to the All-Merciful. It will be a hard Day for the unbelievers," Allah says that on that day pregnant women will miscarry and one will imagine that people are drunk, though they are not. They will be unable to stand upright or walk. Children's hair will turn white, insha'Allah. Allah says this will happen without exception. "The day when a wrongdoer will bite his hands and say, 'Alas for me! If only I had gone the way of the Messenger!"
If only I had obeyed the Qur'an, if only I had believed, they will say. "Alas for me! If only I had not taken so-and-so for a friend!"
Friends turn one another from the true path. One's friends generally cause one to deviate.
It is true that the Day of Reckoning is imminent. People will see that from major events as of 2012. There will be huge disasters. There will be no respite. Everyone will see that something extraordinary is going on. The day used to go on forever. The weekend would never come. The day now ends in a moment. People sleep, eat and it is suddenly evening and the day is over. People go to work and come back and that is the day over. They have no time to breathe. They wonder where the time goes. But previously, the time went on forever. The proximity of the Day of Reckoning will further strengthen our ties of brotherhood. The proximity of the Day of Reckoning will encourage love.2012-10-31 13:35:47

The Tribe cuts ties with its' former closer
(Cleveland) - The Cleveland Indians have given former closer Chris Perez his unconditional release.
Perez finished a dissappointing 2013 season with a 5-and-3 record and a 4.33 ERA. Opponents hit .263 off of him.
In another move, the Indians signed DH Jason Giambi to a minor league contract with a non-roster invite to the Major League camp.
The 42-year old Giambi had three pinch-hit home runs last year, the last of which propelled the Tribe to come-from-behind win that kept the Indians a game ahead in the AL Wildcard race at the time.

Got an error message?
What have you tried?
Before anyone says search the forums, I have searched and found plenty of threads and posts talking about how to get flash player working in firefox. I have used those threads and posts and still I can not get flash player working. I have also gone through the how to's in the forums as well as on the wiki and still nothing.
I am running BT5 R3 Gnome 64 bit on a persistent USB installed using VMware. I have been able to get flash player working on my other computer that has BT5 R3 KDE 32 bit that was installed natively but not this one.
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Got an error message?
What have you tried?
Have you...g0tmi1k?
I have to say I had quite a few issues getting Flash to work - I followed the Back-Track wiki article as well as a number of other online postings and I could not get Flash to work with Firefox.
Eventually I used a Firefox addon which worked perfectly without issue.
The addon is called 'Flash-Aid' https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/fir...don/flash-aid/
I have had no issue since using it and you could of course remove the addon once it has done its work.
Obviously do your own research around this addon to check there are no issues with using it for your setup (my mini disclaimer :] )
I do not have any error messages other than when I try to watch a Youtube video it says that I am missing a pluggin.
Also I have flash-aid installed and enabled on firefox but I am still unable to view the Youtube videos.
I am really at a loss as to what to do about this.
I had to mess with flash forever to get it to work. The best solution I found was a post from Nitrogen.
Hope this helps.... It's like 4 steps and you are done.

The headwaters of a number of Australia's principal rivers are located in the Great Dividing Range. The Snowy River flows down the steep eastern slope, while the Darling, Lachlan, Murrumbidgee, and Goulburn rivers drain the gentle western slope to join the Murray River.
The range was traversed in 1813 by Gregory Blaxland, William Charles W.C. Wentworth, and William Lawson. This initial reconnaissance marked the beginning of European migration, previously inhibited by the highlands, from the east coast into the Australian interior, or outback. The region is now important for agriculture (grazing, mixed farming, fruit growing), lumbering, and mining. The rivers supply large irrigation and hydroelectric schemesprojects, while national parks and ski areas attract tourists.

In a new ad, the Obama campaign is asserting that Mitt Romney wouldn't have gone after Osama bin Laden:
President Obama's campaign is ... argu[ing that] Mitt Romney would not have launched the raid to capture Osama bin Laden last year....
The campaign suggests Romney would not have ordered the raid by pointing to a 2007 interview with The Associated Press in which Romney said: "It's not worth moving heaven and earth spending billions of dollars just trying to catch one person." ...
That quote tells us that Romney was endorsing the George W. Bush approach to bin Laden ("I really just don't spend that much time on him, to be honest with you"). And that's the problem: Not only does Romney's statement suggest that bin Laden would be alive if Romney were president, it suggests that Romney will meekly go along with GOP orthodoxy at all times.
Everyone knew that President Bush began prioritizing Iraq over Al Qaeda shortly after Tora Bora -- or before. Mitt Romney had the opportunity in the 2008 campaign to distinguish himself from Bush -- and he either didn't think there was anything wrong with the Bush approach or didn't have the guts to make a break with Bush.
That Bin Laden Quote Makes Romney Look Even Worse Than You Think

These products are based on traditional, time-honored ingredients, updated to reflect the latest developments in health and beauty. Today, you and your family can benefit from the same quality and purity of Humphreys remedies—both homeopathic and herbal. Humphreys helps you care for your body in the gentlest way possible. Purifies Calms Balances Antioxidant Protection No Sticky Residue I have heard of witch hazel, but what do you use it for?Witch hazel has a number of uses for both skincare and personal care including: Skin Care: Removes excess oils and impurities normalizing your skin's moisture balance Cleans and Tones the skin & refines and reduces the appearance of large pores Will not overdry your skin Removes the last traces of makeup Helps to balance the normal pH of skin Personal Care: Soothes minor cuts and abrasions Soothes minor irritation after shaving Soothes skin from overexposure to sun Helps to reduce inflammation and because Humphreys Witch Hazel is all-natural, it is the most gentle formulation available! How can Humphreys Witch Hazel be all-natural if it contains alcohol?Unlike other astringent products that contain high levels of either synthetic alcohol or isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol), Humphreys products contain only natural alcohol derived from grain. This ingredient is used in limited quantities as a natural preservative. Are any Humphryeys products tested on animals?No, they do not test their products on animals. At Humphreys Pharmacal animal testing is against company philosophy. Humphreys produces the gentlest products from the finest botanical ingredients available. Does Humphreys use any harsh preservatives such as parabens in their products?No, they are sensitive about the ingredients used. All of their skincare products are EU compliant and are 100% vegetarian. They contain certified organic ingredients, no artificial colors, fragrances or harsh preservatives, such as parabens. Some of Humphreys remedies contain cornstarch. Do they use non-GMO cornstarch?Yes - Humphreys products are based on traditional, time-honored non-GMO ingredients to care for your body in the gentlest way possible. Today, they continue to produce their products in the same manner, harvesting their natural ingredients by hand and utilizing traditional processing techniques with a strict eye on quality. The result is a line of the finest natural products that contain ingredients trusted by families for more than 100 years. What is the difference between Humphreys Witch Hazel and other facial astringents and/or toners?Humphreys Witch Hazel is the only all-natural astringent cleanser for facial care. Humphreys combines natural extracts of the witch hazel plant in this refreshing formulation to gently cleanse and condition your skin without overdrying. This product does not contain harsh chemical additives that could be irritating to your skin. What makes Humphreys different is the reason that dermatologists recommend it for sensitive skin - the all-natural extracts in the cleansing astringent clean deep without disturbing your skin's natural moisture balance. Other astringent products can strip your skin of essential moisture, causing your skin to become dry, flaky and irritated - an indication of damage. When your skin reaches this point, it begins to overproduce oils to compensate for the dryness, clogging pores and prolonging the very situation you were trying to correct. Humphreys Organic Botanicals Sensitive Skin Therapy - What is it?Humphreys Organic Botanicals Sensitive Skin Therapy is specially formulated to be safe and effective for individuals with the most delicate complexions. By combining their own witch hazel with jasmine and other therapeutic ingredients, Humphreys Organic Botanicals Sensitive Skin Therapy products work to calm, soothe and nourish your skin - restoring its natural balance. Should the Humphreys Organic Botanical products be used together or should I buy just one?Humphreys products can be used individually or in combination - offering you the choice of products that are right for your own skin type. Humphreys products have been developed to meet the needs of all different skin needs and types. I see that you have cleansing "milk" under the Organic Botanicals line. Does it contain any dairy?No, all of Humphreys skincare products are 100% vegetarian and contain no dairy. The use of the word milk - describes the consistency of the product, which is that of a light, lotion-type cleanser. Can I use your toner without using a moisturizer?Yes. This unique product provides purity, balance and protection for the skin. It can be used in combination with Humphreys Cleansing Gel or Cleansing Milk or in preparation for any moisturizer or make up application. The History of HumphreysIn 1853, Dr. Humphreys became one of the leading homeopathic physicians in New York. His achievements included being Chairman of the American Institute of Homeopathy's "Bureau for the Augmentation and Improvement of the Materia Medica" of the American Institute of Homeopathy. During this time he also helped to establish what came to be known as The New York State Homeopathic Medical Society. As one of his most pivotal and significant contributions to homeopathic medicine, Dr. Humphreys introduced his finding of homeopathic "combinations" and coined the term "Homeopathic Specifics." The value of combination preparations was that they offered, in a single dose, what traditional homeopathic physicians would prescribe by the individual ingredient, or "singles." This approach made it easy for homeopaths to diagnose and self-prescribe without the need to worry about a host of traditional concerns, including content or potency selection. In 1854, The Humphreys Homeopathic Medicine Co. was established (later incorporated under the name "Humphreys Pharmacal") and began to market his namesake products, Humphreys Homeopathic Specifics. These preparations, along with Dr. Humphreys' belief in natural healing, continue to be the basis for both their homeopathic and skincare products.

A 20-acre wildfire was burning in Diamond Fork Canyon about 5 miles north of Spanish Fork Canyon.
The Wignall Fire began about 2:30 p.m. Tuesday, said U.S. Forest Service spokeswoman Loyal Clark. The cause had not yet been determined but lightning was reported in the area at the time the fire started.
One firefighter injured her knee climbing over the rough terrain, Clark said.
Rain fell on the fire Tuesday night; it was not threatening any structures. Crews expected to contain the fire by 2 p.m. Wednesday.
Meanwhile, a fire in a Salt Lake City municipal mulch storage pit reignited Tuesday night, a day after it first broke out.
The green waste storage pit likely had been smoldering Tuesday at 1790 W. Indiana Ave. (850 South) since a fire there was put out Monday night, said Salt Lake City fire spokesman Jasen Asay. As the mulch rekindled in the 200-by-300-foot pit, the water may have dried in the heat. Crews extinguished the fire about 9:30 p.m.
The fire was deemed to have been caused naturally probably by lightning strikes reported in the area Monday night, Asay said.
An unrelated brush fire was burning about 6:45 p.m. along Interstate 215 West, southbound, near State Road 201. It was put out quickly, dispatchers confirmed.

The Neuroscience specialization in the Graduate Program in Biological Sciences at Marquette University brings together researchers from the Department of Biomedical Sciences and the Department of Biological Sciences to train students for independent careers as neuroscience researchers while also building their skills as educators. Graduate students in the neuroscience Ph.D. program will develop expertise in one area of neuroscience research, but will also have a strong general background in other neuroscience subspecialties and related disciplines. To achieve this, students will take interdisciplinary core and advanced courses in neuroscience and related courses in biology, while also developing an independent line of research under the supervision of faculty members in the program.
The Neuroscience faculty are internationally recognized leaders in their fields and their combined expertise fuels a rich collaborative and multi-disciplinary neuroscience research environment. Our faculty have research programs focused on determining the neural mechanisms underlying reward and addiction, schizophrenia, obesity, spinal cord injury/repair, depression, learning and memory, circadian systems, and neurodegenerative disorders.
To enhance the curriculum and research programs, the College of Health Sciences also sponsors the Integrative Neuroscience Research Center (INRC), a consortium of multi-disciplinary researchers in the greater Milwaukee area committed to advancing neuroscience research and education.
The anticipated learning outcomes for the Ph.D. degree program include:
The major endeavor of any graduate student is the research that culminates in a dissertation or thesis. This research must be original and meet the highest standards of quality and thoroughness. To help in determining the best fit of student and mentor, first-year students complete three laboratory rotations with selected neuroscience faculty. To review the participating faculty please click here. During the rotations, which are eight weeks in duration, the students are temporary members of the laboratories whose research appears to be of greatest interest to them. Before the end of the student's second semester, an advisor who guides both research and selection of coursework is chosen by mutual agreement between faculty and student. The relatively small size of the research groups in the program allows students to interact closely with the faculty. It is expected that manuscripts arising from dissertation research are published in highly-respected peer reviewed journals.
Course requirements for students in the Neuroscience Specialization include three comprehensive introductory courses and survey course of neuroscience literature. In addition, neuroscience students also take elective courses. To review the neuroscience course curriculum, please click here. Upon joining the program, each student consults with an advisor who considers the student's interests and undergraduate coursework and helps chart the first year of study. Once a student has a formal research advisor, the student's course of study is guided by a Ph.D. advisory committee chosen by the student and the research advisor. In addition to the graduate courses, students may select upper-level undergraduate courses. Important in every student's program are the seminar courses, in which small groups of students and faculty examine in depth the current literature on specific topics of widespread interest.
Undergraduate education is a very important activity of the research faculty at Marquette. Every graduate student gains experience in this endeavor by observing and by participating first-hand as a teaching assistant for at least two semesters. Recognizing that college teaching is often a major activity of Ph.D. graduates, yet traditionally one neglected in graduate training, the Marquette Graduate School developed an innovative instructional program entitled "Preparing Future Faculty" for graduate students interested in teaching careers.
Students participate in one or more journal clubs that meet once a week to critically review an important recent publication. Because of the diverse research interests within the research community, these gatherings and the other informal interactions between members of different laboratories give our graduates a wide breadth of perspectives on biological problems that becomes invaluable as they start research and/or teaching careers. Research seminars sponsored by the Integrative Neuroscience Research Center are required for graduate students in the neuroscience track.
Ph.D. degree requirements include a minimum of 24 credit hours of course work, a Ph.D. qualifying examination, 12 credit hours of dissertation work, and a minimum of one year of teaching. A committee of five faculty members, including the dissertation advisor, guides the student in designing an individualized program. It is expected that the student will finish within four to six years.

Just about to watch Aldo / Zombie. That triumphant intro they have with Ken shooting on Royce. Iceman battering Tito. Edgar slamming some poor cunt. Bones Jones landing that legendary spinning elbow on Bonnar.
But the final clip of Anderson front kicking Belfort's head off is really tough on him. I reckon they should have given him some cash for that. Every show he is there. Getting chinned. in an unusual way. That's bad for his 'brand'.
They might have recognised this and chucked him some cash. Do you think they did? do you think they should have paid him?
Or is it simply their footage and they can do what they like?

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Ohio's former treasurer has landed a key position overseeing proposed financial legislation in the Ohio House.
Columbus Democrat Kevin Boyce will serve as ranking Democrat on the House Financial Institutions, Housing and Urban Development Committee for the two-year session.
Boyce lost his state office to Republican Josh Mandel (man-DEHL') in 2010.
Last year, Boyce was appointed to fill a House vacancy created after ex-state Rep. Carlton Weddington of Columbus resigned amid a bribery investigation. Weddington has since gone to prison.
Boyce was retained this fall.
He also was appointed to two other committees.

varies by semester - check on class syllabus
I pursued my undergraduate and graduate studies in political science with an emphasis on international relations at California State University, Fullerton. I have been teaching at Santiago Canyon College since 1999. I love my job, my students, my colleagues, and the wonderful world of academics.
I have co-authored a political science textbook in American Government. The book is called, "Understanding American Government", by BVT Textbook Publishing. I plan to co-author or author a textbook in International Relations in the near future as my next project.
On a personal level, I have completed my first two poetry manuscripts and published them with I-Universe Publishers (an affiliated company with Barnes and Noble Books). The books are called, "Seasons Volume I - Twenty-Two Poems from My Heart", and "Seasons Volume II - Twenty-Eight Poems of the Naked Soul."
I have co-authored an academic paper entitled, "The Historical and Political Influence of 20th Century Imperialism and Colonialism upon 21st Century China" with Professor Narges Rabii of the History Department at SCC. The paper was presented at the Oxford University Round Table in August 2006 in Oxford, England and has been published online by the Oxford University Forum on Public Policy. I was invited back to serve as a panelist/discussant for the Oxford University Round Table in August of 2007. It was a wonderful experience the second time around as well.
I am a regular political contributor to the Payameh-Ashena Magazine, which is a monthly periodical featuring articles on contemporary issues written by Iranian-American professionals in Orange County, California.
I am proud to announce that in September of 2008, I founded the POLITICAL SCIENCE FORUM (PSF) at SCC. I served as the PSF advisor. It was and is the first political science club in the department's history. Professor James Granitto of the Philosophy department served as my co-advisor. I am pleased to announce now that the PSF has been revitalized as the CURRENT ISSUES FORUM and Professor Charlotte Samuels currently serves as the club's new advisor.
As of August of 2010, I am serving as the secretary and co-founder of P.O.S.E. (Progress, Outreach, Support, and Education) which is a non-profit organization serving to protect the civil liberties and civil rights of the Iranian-American LGBTQ community in Orange County as well as nationwide. We are straight allies and the first of our kind in terms of organizational history in the United States.
I am a member of the SCC Academic Senate, the Co-Chair of the SCC Faculty Development Committee, a member of the Honors Program Advisory Committee, and the current department chair for political science, history, economics, and geography.
If you want to be inspired, challenged, and a bit offended, take a course in political science. Come ready to work hard, think critically, and have an open mind. I only hope that you leave my classes feeling like you are more aware of the world around you.
Please take the time to check out the links on the Political Science web page to learn more about the field of political science..... from courses offered at SCC, jobs, organizations, websites, to other valuable information.
Read, Write, Complain, Protest, Get Active, and Care!
Let's try to eradicate ignorance and apathy in regards to politics in the classroom and all across our nation and the world.
Thank you and see you in class.

Nope, it's a myth.
Nope, it's a myth.
momma on the phone askin if im still trappin
Like a very fine particulate matter, pigments are suspended in a solvent designed to quickly penetrate into the material onto which it is writing. As the solvent acts as a vehicle for these pigments, allowing them to penetrate the surface, it also provides the benefit of evaporating quickly, leaving the colored particulate deep in the pores and micro-surfaces along with an ingredient to aid in the cohesion.

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) -- Haiti on Wednesday "vehemently" protested travel advisories recently issued by the U.S. and Canadian governments.
The U.S. State Department last week strengthened a travel advisory on Haiti. It warned Americans planning to visit the Caribbean nation about kidnappings, robbery, lawlessness and cholera, noting that at least two U.S. citizens were shot and killed in robbery and kidnapping incidents.
Canada followed with a similar statement.
Complaining that the warnings only hurt Haiti's image, government spokesman Calvin Cadet wrote that the advisories were incompatible with improvements that authorities have made in security. He noted Haiti has promised to hire more officers for its national police force.
His statement also noted the recent dismantling of an alleged kidnapping ring. Police in October arrested Clifford Brandt, the owner of a car dealership and son of a prominent family, on kidnapping charges.
Despite its reputation as a violent place, Haiti has little criminal activity compared to other countries in the Caribbean. It doesn't appear among the top 58 most violent nations compiled by the Geneva Declaration on Armed Violence and Development, which sponsors studies on crime trends worldwide.
Cadet also said Haiti has seen a drop in the number of cholera cases. Health officials say that more than 7,750 people have died of the waterborne illness since the disease surfaced in Haiti several months after the 2010 earthquake.
President Michel Martelly's administration is trying to revive a long-moribund tourism industry and spur foreign investment. Haitian business owners have long complained that such travel advisories overstate criminal activity in the country and scare off potential investors.
