With the Wailers, he presaged every major development from rock steady to roots reggae. By combining the tension of political issues with the expansiveness of Rastafarian spirituality and some of the deepest grooves in reggae, he earned a worldwide audience. Though Marley died young, he remains an icon comparable to John Lennon, a musical and social visionary.

My Dad is still raving!
By Cheri in Ohio
from Coshocton, Ohio
I purchased this shirt for my Dad, while visiting him in Florida, and had it shipped to him. He had been searching for a shirt like this, but was disappointed that the ones he found were either too heavy to wear in Florida winters, way too pricey or not genuine leather. I was alarmed several days later when I got a call from him, because he NEVER initiates a phone call unless something is wrong. It turned out that he had just received his shirt and was ecstatic! I've not seen this shirt in person, but after his 20 minute raving phone review I feel confident in stating "it's awesome!" I didn't mark "washes well", only because he hasn't washed it yet. I'm pretty sure I'll get another call from him on that day & will let you know. I'm not worried :-)Thank you so much!

text: The restaurant that led to the what looks like brief demise of Paula Deen's career has closed. The closing was abrupt. It was so abrupt that some employees didn't find out it was closed until they got to work. Others found out by looking on the Facebook page of the restaurant or being told by others who saw it on the local Savannah news. Despite all the drama Uncle Bubba's Seafood And Oyster House was really popular but perhaps Paula wanted to try and escape everything from the past and try to forget what she said. If the place stayed open it was always going to be a reminder of the lawsuit and the collapse of her cooking empire. Judging from the photo above it looks like it would be a great place to have a haunted house business at Halloween.

Hi~Please help.
I want to replace images in my index.css with a CSS sprite. I made a sprite with a generator. Here is a bit of code from it.Please help~
.sprite-hover{ background-position: 0 0; width: 14px; height: 35px; }
.sprite-left-bg{ background-position: 0 -85px; width: 232px; height: 1px; }
#container li {
background: url(csg-4f2d90ebaef03.png) no-repeat top left;
This is the former image in the css file:
.button_menu ul li a:hover{background:url(../images/hover.jpg); color:#000;}
How do I replace this hover.jpg image with the sprite?
I have read a bunch of tutorials, but they all say something about the html. Which I don't understand since the images in the current css never made a reference to the html before. The whole index.css does but not individual images.
CSS Sprit is the process of loading all images in single image file and it can be show by changing background-position. Your code so more complecated to understand. Please take a referench http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_image_sprites.asp.
Sprites, specially complex ones like the one you may get from a generator only work in certain situations.
CSS Sprit is the process of loading all images in single image file
Simplified version of what you need to do is create a rule with all the SELECTORS to which you intend to use the sprite.
.someClass, .item div, #myLogo, #anImage div, .list li a, .list li a:hover{background-image:url(../images/mySprite.png); background-repeat:no-repeat;}
Then you just adjust the BACKGROUND-POSITION in each of the elements as needed.
.list li a{ background-position: 0 0; width: 14px; height: 35px; }
.list li a:hover{ background-position: 0 35px; width: 14px; height: 35px; }
Note how I moved the VERTICAL position 35px up, if the hover state of .list li a was right below the regular state you will get the desired action.
As you can imagine sprites are VERY tricky and limited for repeating background and do not work for elements undefined dimensions.
ThanksI will take a look at this now. It doesn't look simple. I have been fiddling with this for days.
What's the trick with getting the positioning right? How do you integrate it with the previous background code? Sometimes the image shows correctly, but moves the stuff around it. Or sometimes parts of other images in the sprite show.
Like here's some code: .sprite-log-in-arrow{ background-position: 0 -368px; width: 8px; height: 7px; }
How do I insert that position into this (code before the sprite): .login a{display:block; background-image: url(../images/log-in-arrow.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: left 4px; padding-left:12px; font-size:11px; color:#646464; text-decoration:none;}
I tried this and the image showed but moved the stuff around it. .login a{display:block; background-image: url(../images/spritesgen.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 0 -368px; width: 8px; height: 7px;left 4px; padding-left:12px; font-size:11px; color:#646464;text-decoration:none;}
That kinda worked-the image showed, but it moved the other stuff.
It would be better if you could show us your HTML too ... and preferably a live link, as it's hard to understand what's going on without the image. Is there a test page you could link us to? (If you have a website, just create a test page somewhere.)
Thanks for your reply. This sure is difficult. I appreciate your help. Here's a sample of the html from the index.php template:

<?php if($user->gid > 0){ ?>
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="user3" />
<? } else {?>
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="top2" />
<? } ?>

 <?php if($_REQUEST['view']=="frontpage"){?>  <jdoc:include type="modules" name="left3" />

The "button_menu" and "homeleft-box" are the two things that I am replacing with the sprite. Maybe these kinds of images can't work with a sprite. My site is: esl in side r (dot) com
What you really want here is to have a background image with a normal state and a hover state. So in the normal state, the normal background should show on the , and then on hover the image position moves so that a different part of the image shows.
At the moment, in the normal state, you have a separator as the background image. You would be better off moving this separator image to the LIs, so that you can put the sprite image on the normal state of the anchor too.
Here is an example of how sprites can work:
It's more complex than what you are doing, as your sprite doesn't include the text, so you only need a very small, simple image. But it might at least make it a bit clearer how sprites work.

Saved a deer last night!!
Were out looking for cars and came across a yearling whitetail doe who had her back leg cought up in a barbed wire fence, so i decide i need to help her out, after thinkin about what to do, i decided to go ahead and start cutting the wire, so got the cutters and headed out to the fence, deer was cought in the top 2 strands, looks like it jumped a bit short and its leg went in between the top 2 lines of wire, when the deer went over the fence, it twisted the wire in a x and pinched its leg about 8 inches above its hoof, as i was up their about 4 or so feet from the deer, which i might add wasnt happy with me being so close, she kinda pushed back away and then jumped forward, and the wire released its leg, didnt seem like it was hurt to bad, it just kinda gently troted off across the raod. was limping abit, but didnt have a broken leg or anything, It would have died their for sure without some one helping it im sure, anways i felt pretty good about the turnout, we both got away. i was somewhat worried about how bad she was going to kick the hoo ha out of me trying to help her, but it couldnt have gone any better!! I thought it was pretty cool!!
That's really cool. A guy I used to work with had the same thing happen to his wife. Big doe caught in the fence so she went out to help. She got he deer loose and it gave her one swift kick in the leg as it was leaving and left a giant bruise. Not much of a thank you from Bambi's mom.Chris Christenson - Admin

Analysis & Opinions - Foreign Policy
Is America Addicted to War?
The top 5 reasons why we keep getting into foolish fights.
The United States started out as 13 small and vulnerable colonies clinging to the east coast of North America. Over the next century, those original 13 states expanded all the way across the continent, subjugating or exterminating the native population and wresting Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California from Mexico. It fought a bitter civil war, acquired a modest set of overseas colonies, and came late to both world wars. But since becoming a great power around 1900, it has fought nearly a dozen genuine wars and engaged in countless military interventions.
Yet Americans think of themselves as a peace-loving people, and we certainly don't regard our country as a "warrior nation" or "garrison state." Teddy Roosevelt was probably the last U.S. president who seemed to view war as an activity to be welcomed (he once remarked that "A just war is in the long run far better for a man's soul than the most prosperous peace"), and subsequent presidents always portray themselves as going to war with great reluctance, and only as a last resort.
In 2008, Americans elected Barack Obama in part because they thought he would be different from his predecessor on a host of issues, but especially in his approach to the use of armed force. It was clear to nearly everyone that George W. Bush had launched a foolish and unnecessary war in Iraq, and then compounded the error by mismanaging it (and the war in Afghanistan too). So Americans chose a candidate who had opposed Bush's war in Iraq and could bring U.S. commitments back in line with our resources. Above all, Americans thought Obama would be a lot more thoughtful about where and how to use force, and that he understood the limits of this crudest of policy tools. The Norwegian Nobel Committee seems to have thought so too, when they awarded him the Nobel Peace Prize not for anything he had done, but for what it hoped he might do henceforth.
Yet a mere two years later, we find ourselves back in the fray once again. Since taking office, Obama has escalated U.S. involvement in Afghanistan and launched a new war against Libya. As in Iraq, the real purpose of our intervention is regime change at the point of a gun. At first we hoped that most of the guns would be in the hands of the Europeans, or the hands of the rebel forces arrayed against Muammar al-Qaddafi, but it's increasingly clear that U.S. military forces, CIA operatives and foreign weapons supplies are going to be necessary to finish the job.
Moreover, as Alan Kuperman of the University of Texas and Steve Chapman of the Chicago Tribune have now shown, the claim that the United States had to act to prevent Libyan tyrant Muammar al-Qaddafi from slaughtering tens of thousands of innocent civilians in Benghazi does not stand up to even casual scrutiny. Although everyone recognizes that Qaddafi is a brutal ruler, his forces did not conduct deliberate, large-scale massacres in any of the cities he has recaptured, and his violent threats to wreak vengeance on Benghazi were directed at those who continued to resist his rule, not at innocent bystanders. There is no question that Qaddafi is a tyrant with few (if any) redemptive qualities, but the threat of a bloodbath that would "[stain] the conscience of the world" (as Obama put it) was slight.
It remains to be seen whether this latest lurch into war will pay off or not, and whether the United States and its allies will have saved lives or squandered them. But the real question we should be asking is: Why does this keep happening? Why do such different presidents keep doing such similar things? How can an electorate that seemed sick of war in 2008 watch passively while one war escalates in 2009 and another one gets launched in 2011? How can two political parties that are locked in a nasty partisan fight over every nickel in the government budget sit blithely by and watch a president start running up a $100 million per day tab in this latest adventure? What is going on here?
Here are my Top 5 Reasons Why America Keeps Fighting Foolish Wars:
1. Because We Can.
The most obvious reason that the United States keeps doing these things is the fact that it has a remarkably powerful military, especially when facing a minor power like Libya. As I wrote a couple of weeks ago, when you've got hundreds of planes, smart bombs, and cruise missiles, the whole world looks like a target set. So when some thorny problem arises somewhere in the world, it's hard to resist the temptation to "do something!"
It is as if the president has big red button on his desk, and then his aides come in and say, "There's something really nasty happening to some unfortunate people, Mr. President, but if you push that button, you can stop it. It might cost a few hundred million dollars, maybe even a few billion by the time we are done, but we can always float a bit more debt. As long as you don't send in ground troops, the public will probably go along, at least for awhile and there's no danger that anybody will retaliate against us — at least not anytime soon — because the bad guys (who are really nasty, by the way) are also very weak. Our vital interests aren't at stake, sir, so you don't have to do anything. But if you don't push the button lots of innocent people will die. The choice is yours, Mr. President."
It would take a very tough and resolute president — or one with a clear set of national priorities and a deep understanding of the uncertainties of warfare — to resist that siren song.
Of course, like his predecessors, Obama justifies his resort to force by invoking America's special place in the world. In the usual rhetoric of "American exceptionalism," he couched it in terms of U.S. values, its commitment to freedom, etc. But the truly exceptional thing about America today is not our values (and certainly not our dazzling infrastructure, high educational standards, rising middle-class prosperity, etc.); it is the concentration of military power in the hands of the president and the eroding political constraints on its employment. (For an elegant skewering of the "American exceptionalism" argument, see Andrew Sullivan here)....

Psychology is a science devoted to the study of how people and animals think, feel and behave. Psychologists consider how both biological processes and environmental influences can account for behavior. The field of psychology integrates research and practice. That is, in addition to trying to explain behavior, psychologists are interested in applying the results of research to solve real world problems.

X3 N52 Thermostat DIY
This really a fairly simple DIY, the only difficult part is working in tight spaces. This should take 2-3 hours if you take your time. You'll need:

awesome. I'm doing it. I thought I read elsewhere i=on here that it was a nightmare, but this does not make that seem so.
May I ask what kind of coolant to use? I.E., do us bimmer owners use that 100K crap the American and Japanese cars use?
Awesome write up!
What symptoms lead you to replace the thermostat? It looks like it is right there with the water pump. I have heard changing the pump is a real you know what. How much more effort is required to do that too?
Sonic - it is bmw blue coolant...very very similar to the g85 coolant that Chrysler uses...just with blue instead of orange die. I change mine every 3 years or so, but they claim lifetime...hahaha
Last edited by x3brian; 01-12-2013 at 12:45 PM.
I just used the actual BMW coolant, I bought some from Tischer a while back with another order so the shipping was already covered. It's not all that much more than the Prestone at my local auto parts shop. The cheapest OEM thermostat I could find was from RMEuropean and I googled for a 5% off code also.
I changed mine because I was getting a P0597 code occasionally (more often when the outside temp was below ~20deg F). This seems to have fixed it. The engine temp (via the dash gage) didn't seem any different when I was getting the check engine light, but I went ahead and did this anyway.
Yes, the water pump is right next to the thermostat, but I'm not sure how it is attached to the engine, and I don't know how bad the access is to whatever bolts there are. So I can't say if it is easy or not. But the only thing it would save you is draining and refilling the coolant system. Everything else (remove splash shield, remove cooler hose bolt, remove thermostat bolts) literally takes 3 or 4 minutes. I've only got 50k miles, so I'll wait at least another 30k before I tackle that project.

excellent post. I also changed the thermostat on my girlfriends 2007 BMW X3 3.0 si due to the SEL returning code P0597. At the time the vehicle had 88,123 miles. I did this back on 11/20/2012. I never posted a DIY because I felt that I didn't get good enough pictures. As you can see its a really tight area to work with.
I'd like to add a bit more information with pictures.
FIG. 1: Beck/Arnley Thermostat | Part #: BEC1430826
Purchased from Auto Parts Warehouse @ $102.23
The two "ribbed" ports (Located at 7 and 9 o'clock) are where the hoses with the hose clamps are connected.
The two other ports (located at 11 and 2 o'clock) are where the hoses with the retaining clips are connected. *** Notice that these two ports have plastic pieces that "jutt" out. So there is only one way these hoses are able to be inserted.***
There are only two bolts mounting the thermostat to the water-pump. Next to the bolts is where the wire connection is located.
FIG. 2: Before removing the thermostat, make sure you see how the original one is connected.
This picture was taken underneath the vehicle, passenger-side.
You'll notice in the picture I removed the two bolts from the old thermostat and placed them on the new one.
FIG. 3: This view is from underneath the passenger-side wheel, looking out towards the front of the car.
FIG. 4: This is a closer view from FIG.3. These are the two hoses with hose clamps.
FIG. 5: Better view of the wire connected to the thermostat and the two bolts mounting it to the thermostat.
FIG. 6: This is what the retaining clips look like.
The Work
There were only a few things I did differently.
1. I disconnected the battery to be on the safe-side.
2. I didn't drain the coolant. Of course I started working on it when the car was cold. Rest assured though that I was drenched in coolant fluid once I started removing the hoses.
3. After removing the oil cooler hose, I unplugged the wire and tucked it in a safe place where it wouldn't get wet. I then I removed the two bolts holding the thermostat to the water-pump. This gave me the freedom to move the thermostat around to gain better access to each one of the hoses. It did require a lot of pulling and tugging to get each hose disconnected, but it is do-able if you're determined!
Don't forget to properly seat and secure each hose. Don't forget to reconnect the retaining clips!
I refilled with coolant, took a few times to get it topped off. Let the car run and checked for leaks, also kept an eye to make sure the car did not overheat.
Last, I went to auto-zone and I cleared the codes.
Its now 2 months later, the SEL has not turned on and the car has not overheated.
Last thing,
the car never overheated to begin with. I never would've known there was an issue with the thermostat unless the car gave out the P0597 code. Anyone can get this done as long as you have the tools to do it.
Hi Cagui1223 & mekaneck!
Thank you for the steps to replace the thermostat. I did mine earlier this week in my 07 X3. I do have one quick question though about the bigger hose coming from the radiator to the thermostat. Once you put the retaining clip back in, should there be in movement in the connection of the hose to the thermostat? I can wiggle mine just a hair. I've only driven about 8 miles since I replaced it and have absolutely no leaks or seepage that I can find dealing with coolant. I might be over concerned though!
Here was my experience of this tasks:
I've always changed my own oil, spark plugs, differential fluids, and transfer case fluids in the X3 so I felt pretty comfortable about taking on this tasks. This was by far the hardest DIY that I've completed. It is fairly straightforward, but those hoses just don't want to come off easily.
I removed the bigger hose with retaining clip first and then the two hoses with the hose clamps next. I was able to get both of the hose clamps off going through the passenger side suspension components. The bigger of these two hoses I was able to use a 6mm socket and extensions to get the hose clamp off. The small of these two hoses I had to use a 6mm wrench.
I saved the last hose with a retaining clip to the end. Once I unbolted the thermostat from the water pump, I was able to get the thermostat out of it location and had enough play in the final hose to move the hose with the thermostat. Once I got the thermostat totally below the vehicle I was able to remove the retaining clip and disconnect the hose. I then reconnected this hose and retaining clip to the new thermostat and fished it back into the recess. I then mounted the thermostat to the water pump.
I was then rather easily able to get the two other back hoses on from the suspension area and clamped down. The final hose was the bigger hose with the retaining clip. It was really tough to get back on. I was finally able to force it back on and the retaining clip fell off. It took about 30 minutes, but I was finally able to get the retaining clip back onto the hose to lock it in place. I did notice just a hair of give when I try to move the hose with the retaining clip in place. It appears to be locked in though.
I then put the new coolant in and bled the system. So far I've driven about 8 miles and do not have any leaks.
Back in November 2012, I had my X3 towed to the dealer due to not starting. It turned out to be a bad fuel pump. The dealer also said that my thermostat was not operating correctly and the DME was not getting a signal from the thermostat. I declined for them to replace the thermostat since they are designed to fail in the open position. However, I did notice through the winter that it would take 25 minutes or so for my heat to really be warm inside the vehicle. After replacing the thermostat, it now takes about two minutes for the vehicle to start blowing hot air with the heat on.
Hopefully other members with more experience may best answer this question for you.
This job is a major PITA, especially if you are replacing the water pump too. There is very little access, either from the bottom or the top. I'd hate to just replace the thermostat because to get to the water pump at a later time, you have to first remove the t-stat and then remove the WP. If you have more than 50k and need to replace your t-stat, unless you aren't planning on keeping the car much longer, I'd recommend you do both at the same time. I know the part is expensive (about $350 from BMW dealers on ebay) but the idea of doing this work again later is a non-starter with me.

Thanks to the contributors of this thread I was able to replace both the thermostat and water pump in my 2007 X3. I just have a couple of things to add:
1. Remove the electric radiator fan (simple task). This gives you a lot of space to work from above. It makes removing the quick connect hoses easy, gives better access to the top bolt of the water pump and you can pull the old units out from the top no problem.
2. Don't try removing them both as a single unit. Pulling the thermostat out first makes it easier to get a socket + extension on that top water pump bolt. I disconnected the U shaped hose between the two at the thermostat and left it attached to the water pump.
Re: X3 N52 Thermostat DIY
This is one B.A. thread, thanks gents!!
Sent from my ADR6350 using BimmerApp mobile app
Do we have a thread for a cooling system overhaul?
I think that is good idea.
How do we remove the electric radiator fan?
I don't recall exactly but it was pretty straightforward. You remove the plastic cowling on the top of the radiator, disconnect the electrical connectors for the air quality sensor on the top drivers side of the fan and the fan itself, remove a couple of screws holding the fan in place and lift it out.
This thread helped me tremendously! The only extra thing I did was take off the front right wheel so I had more room to work. I had more difficulty getting the hoses off with clamps as opposed to the ones with clips. This is a very tight work space and if you have big hands you will be at a disadvantage. The step by step laid by mekaneck is legit!! Thanks!
Just a follow-up to this thread... I unfortunately had to do this basically all over again a few weeks ago, because my water pump failed (I only replaced the thermostat the first time). I took m3davidb's advice and removed the radiator fan this time. Took about two minutes to get it out, and gave me a whole lot more room to work (and see).
I think if my thermostat failed again, I still wouldn't do the water pump at the same time unless they both had a lot of miles on them. It's just not that difficult of a job, especially with the radiator fan out of the way.

Thanks to Mekaneck and the other gentlemen that contributed to this thread. I replaced the water pump and low-temp thermostat on my 2000 boxster, and it was cake compared to what has been described in this thread. But the brilliant descriptions given in the thread offer excellent incentive to tackle this project.
My wife's '07 X3 keeps throwing that 0597 code, and I also have a cracked coolant expansion tank. Wifey wants dealer to handle it as I lack the time right now. But if the code comes back, I'll follow the fantastic details in this thread to change my T-stat and WP. Thanks again all.
a good don otto bav link
some good tips in these
The Bav Auto link to Don Otto - excellent, thanks. Gives hope and confidence to DIY'ers.
Just ran through this on by 2007 X3. The process was good and easy to follow. I will agree with whoever it was that suggested to take the fan off - it made removing and replacing the housing quite easy (pulled it out towards the radiator and up), and made attaching the two 'clip' hoses much easier, while the two 'clamp' hoses were attached from underneath the car. It did take somewhere in the 4 hour range, but getting the 'clip' hoses back on definitely took the longest time for a single task. I ended up using a short length of wood, with the top on the hose clip end, the middle pressed back against a metal cross member and the bottom being pulled on with a lot of force by myself. I saw no need to take the passenger tire off.
X3 N52 Thermostat DIY
Removing the fan should be SOP every time the hood is opened to do any job more intensive than an oil change.
Just did this. Big thanks to the OP for the instructions! It was a big help. Overall, it took me about 4 hours, with a lunch break in between removal and installation. +1 on removing the fan - this job (and many others) would be even worse if you leave it in. Also, the flexible nut driver is essential for the hose clamps. Hose grease was helpful for getting the "quick" connect hoses re-connected. I didn't have to push too hard.
Now for that beer...

Samsung Electronics has introduced the industry's first quad-core application processor built on the HKMG low-power process technology. With performance capabilities exceeding 1.4GHz based on the ARM Cortex A9 quad-core, the Exynos 4 Quad allows system-level architects to integrate maximized power efficiencies into smartphones and tablets which enables double the processing power at a 20% lower power bill over its predecessor, the 45nm process-based Exynos 4 Dual.
Due to its 32nm HKMG low-power process and power-saving design, the Exynos 4 Quad has two-times the processing capability over the 45nm process based Exynos 4 Dual while consuming 20% less power. To improve power efficiency, Samsung adopted hot-plug functionality to support on-off switching for each core as well as the per-core dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS), which offers a dramatic reduction in power consumption by adapting different levels of voltage and frequency when changing workloads.
Having identical form factor measurement (12X12X1.37mm), the Exynos 4 Quad is pin-to-pin compatible with the 32nm process based Exynos 4 Dual, allowing mobile device designers to immediately adopt the new solution without additional cost, engineering or design efforts.
Already in production, the Exynos 4 Quad is scheduled to be adopted first into Samsung's next Galaxy smartphone that will officially be announced in May. Samsung's Exynos 4 Quad is also sampling to other major handset makers.

text: 1.)T.J. McDonald FS, 6-2 205LBS I know people want Oline but I have been wanting a ballhawking saftey since D.Woodson left, and this may be the guy who can feel that void not only in ballhawking but also hard hitter and leader of the DB. Has good size, speed, quickness, and hips to play saftey to play in the NFL. He does a good job of picking up receivers running deep and seldom ever gets beat in coverage, covers a lot of ground in the deep part of the field. McDonald has the speed to cover tight ends in man-to-man or run with receivers going deep and with Church getting hurt I think we need this. 2.) William Gholston DE, 6-7 280LBS I know, I know......I skipped Oline again but when a athletic freak and versatile player falls to you, you take him. Just like McDonald he has NFL bloodlines, he is the cousin of Vernon Gholston...but has the heart and desire Vernon never had so this family link should not hurt him.....but his offfield issues will. At 6-7 and 280 pounds Gholston nicknamed "Too Tall"(Cowboys bound) is long, lengthy, fast-twitch athlete who can add maybe 15-30LBS onto his big frame and still keep his explosiveness, with the added wieght he can play the five-technique. Gholston does a solid job of locking his arms out and keeping blockers off his body, which puts him in perfect position to anchor and set the edge against the run. Gholston playes with a relentless attitude and a non-stop motor, and he showes tremendous explosiveness and burst off the edge, racking up five sacks, 13.5 tackles for loss and 70 total takedowns in 2011, But he plays too stiff and needs to develop a better array of pass rush moves, too often relying on his natural tools and not technique. He reminds me of a more athletic Calais Campbell. 3.) Khaled Holmes C, 6-3 305LBS With the third pick the Cowboys trade back up to the second round to nab Holmes giving up a two 3rd round picks, one this year and next years. Homles would be a much needed upgrade to the Oline. Holmes can move quickly to get in position to pick up blitzers but also has the skills to fire out of stance and double-team defensive tackles with guards. Holmes has nice awareness to pick up pass-rushers, and is quick to the next level of the defense as a run-blocker. He hits blocks on linebackers to help spring his backs for more yardage. Holmes also combo-blocks well with his guards. In the NFL, he would be best as a zone-blocker who can use his speed and athleticism. 4.) Alvin Bailey OG, 6-5 315LBS got to go trenches back to back or Romo will not make it, Bailey and Holmes should help. Bailey has the size to play RT if the Cowboys decide to drop Free. Bailey is a naturally massive man, he shows impressive quickness off the snap and can knock defenders off the ball in the running game. He's athletic enough to handle blocking on the move - a requirement in an Arkansas scheme that often requires the guards to pull and block at the second level. 5.) Joseph Randle RB, 6-0 200LBS Cowboys grab a RB from Oklahoma two years in a row, this time from Oklahoma State. Felix is most likely gone next year and has not lived up to his draft status, Randle should take his spot with Tanner and Dunbar fighting for the third. While only weighing 200 Randle looks big and strong out there a leaner-than-ideal frame and there are some questions about his ability to carry the load, but he works well through traffic and shows the balance to stay on his feet after first contact. He's a relentless inside runner. He keeps his feet moving and fights through tackles. He always seems to be falling forward. He has excellent acceleration and wastes little time hitting his second gear through the hole, using his outstanding vision to find room to run both as a rusher and receiver. Randle will be an asset in the passing game. He is a reliable pass blocker and has solid hands out of the backfield. Dangerous in the open field. 6.) Brandon Jenkins OLB, 6-3 260LBS Jenkins would have been a day 2 and maybe day 1 pick if not for a season ending injury.......his loss and Cowboys gain. Between Jenkins and Wilber I think Butler is gone next year and we could find are future OLB when the HOF Ware is gone. After serving as a back-up as a true freshman, he finished third in the nation in sacks as a sophomore with 13.5, adding 21.5 tackles for loss. Jenkins' production took a dip last season as he finished with 8.0 sacks and 12.0 tackles for loss, but both still led the team. He plays with explosive burst off the snap with a quick first step and acceleration to chase down the action. Jenkins lacks prototypical size and struggles to shed, but plays with violent hand usage and does a nice job manipulating his frame to get past blockers. He needs to improve his leverage and consistently play lower to the ground.

What's four feet tall, bears a strong resemblance to Chris "Birdman" Andersen and is always smiling — even when his innards are being ripped out and his body cavity filled with Fun Size Snickers? Birdman the piñata! And Piñateria Yasmin makes one hell of a Birdman — not to mention striking renditions of other Denver Nuggets, as well as Dora the Explorer, Buzz Lightyear, and even, if you ask nicely enough and bring a photo, your mother-in-law...whose innards you'd probably love to rip out and replace with Snickers.
For local musician Martina Grbac, there is life after Matson Jones: Although she still works on musical projects, Grbac's newest vision is eyeLAB, a sliding-scale optical service that provides eyeglasses to artists and other uninsured people who typically can't afford a nice pair. By nature a labor of love, eyeLAB is a one-woman deal, and the sliding-scale concept is unique, but Grbac hopes to pair with charitable organizations in the future so she can dispense free eyewear to the most indigent customers. Give her a visit, whether or not you can afford the smart new frames.
Public bikes and public art ought to go hand in hand, and at this stylin' RiNo B-cycle station, one of fifty in the city, they do. Colorado sculptor Christopher Hecker's untitled urban-art assemblage, built from recycled car hoods and emblazoned with the word "Bike," is the perfect advertisement for B-cycle, especially in an arts district: Not only does it repurpose a dinosaur automobile, but it encourages B-cycle patrons to trade in their metal for pedals.
As sugar addicts and cheapskates already know, it's a scientific fact that candy canes and butterscotch pillows taste exactly the same whether they're intact or broken into pieces. The only difference? The price. In the Oops Room at the Hammond's Candies factory, thrifty five-year-olds (and grown-ass men who love caramel marshmallows and saving money) can get their candy fix for less by buying the factory's fractured goods. At Hammond's, Denver's 91-year-old candy company, even the mistakes are delicious.
The Queen Anne has everything you'd expect from a good downtown Denver B&B. Within reasonable walking distance of the 16th Street Mall and other urban attractions, its side-by-side Victorian houses open up to reveal old-style hospitality, served in lovely old rooms, some of which sport vaulted ceilings or city views. But it also runs on a streak of modernism: Proprietor Milan Doshi, a trained chef, dishes out lovely breakfasts based on locavore principles (there's a big garden in back in the summer, where guests can dine outdoors), and green and eco-friendly standards are observed throughout the inn, right down to the organic linens and low-flow toilets. To top it off, the Queen Anne also features a series of super-urban rooms decorated by an edgy stable of local artists and designers. For visitors hoping for a real city experience, it's an excellent launching pad.
Will he start? Won't he start? It doesn't matter. Denver Broncos (backup?) quarterback, underwear salesman and clean-living phenomenon Tim Tebow has sold a lot of No. 15 jerseys since the team drafted him in April 2010; in fact, his jersey has consistently been one of the NFL's top sellers. But jerseys are expensive, which gave Daniella Grieve, of Lombardi's Embroidery in Arvada, an idea: Bring her your old Brandon Marshall (remember him?) No. 15 jersey, and she'll replace the former Broncos wide receiver's name with Tebow's for $25. It's a bargain for Denver fans and a good way to make sure that Tebow groupies keep their shirts on.

Minions are allied or enemy units that spawn automatically to charge into battle with the purpose of attacking enemy units in the lanes they are assigned.
Lore Edit
Minions are magical constructs, summoned specifically for use in battle. Earliest recorded use of minions for battles was at the battle field known as Summoner's Rift, where ancient sides the Protectorate (Stag crest) and Magelord (Owl crest) summoners fought against each other.
The process of minions spawning needs constant and massive amount of magical energy to be sustained. Minions are not fully sentient beings, rather they are controlled by the summoners who use nexuses. The Nexus structure focuses enough magical energy from powerful crystals for sustained minion spawning and its destruction disrupts and stops the summoning magic.
There are many ways a minion body can be magically constructed, ranging from animated magic scrolls, animated sand, magically animated bolts of cloth, and even sound.
Necromancy is a minion summoning technique that uses dark magic to reanimate corpses. Like ordinary minions they are not fully sentient and are completely controlled by the user who summoned them. Most known practitioners of necromancy come from the Shadow Isles.
Also, while not magically constructed, living minions share many traits with magically constructed minions. Voidlings summoned through are controlled by those who have necessary magical power to use them; one of such known persons is 20px Malzahar. A Celestial Being known as 20px Bard is frequently followed by minion-like spirits known as 20px Meeps that aid him in his tasks (though they are more like companions than outright minions).
Gameplay Edit
Main Stats Edit
The blue and red team minions start spawning at 1:15 and every 30 seconds afterward from the Nexus in order to support the champions. Every 90 seconds (3rd wave) the minion waves will grow stronger, with every type of minion gaining different stats. Minions deal 50% increased damage to Turrets and deal about 40% reduced damage to enemy champions. An enemy turret's armor is reduced when minions are near.
All minions have a Movement speed of 325. All follow the same Behavior Set and walk in a line until they encounter a target. Spawn order is: Super Minions (if active), 3 Melee Minions, Siege Minions (intermittently, change to Super Minions if that lanes opposing is destroyed), 3 Caster Minions.
Each type can be buffed. Detailed Buffs are noted below, but general buffs are listed within each sub-section. The grants the following to any minion promoted:
- A permanent Black Shield which grants total immunity to magic damage.
- Tower Shield (reduced turret damage).
- All gold gained by the minion goes to the champion who promoted it.
The Hand of Baron Hand of Baron grants the following to all minions near a champion with the Hand of Baron aura buff:
- increase speed to match 90% of average movement speed of nearby champions, capped at 500 movement speed
- resistance to slow effects.
- Non-super minions have 75% damage reduction versus area of effect, damage over time, and persistent effects
AI Behavior Edit
Minions and turrets will only deviate from their standard behavior to come to the aid of an ally under duress. Whenever any unit is under attack, it generates a 'call for help'. Minions and turrets have slightly different reactions to a call for help.
Under normal circumstances, a minion's behavior is simple. Minions follow their attack route until they reach an enemy to engage. Every few seconds, they will scan the area around them for the highest priority target. When a minion receives a call for help from an ally, it will evaluate its current target in relation to the target designated by the call. It will switch its attack to the new target if and only if the new target is of a higher priority than their current target. Minions prioritize targets in the following order:
- An enemy champion designated by a call for help from an allied champion. (Enemy champion attacking an Allied champion)
- An enemy minion designated by a call for help from an allied champion. (Enemy minion attacking an Allied champion)
- An enemy minion designated by a call for help from an allied minion. (Enemy minion attacking an Allied minion)
- An enemy turret designated by a call for help from an allied minion. (Enemy turret attacking an Allied minion)
- An enemy champion designated by a call for help from an allied minion. (Enemy champion attacking an Allied minion)
- The closest enemy minion.
- The closest enemy champion.
Minions will only reevaluate their target every few seconds. This means that if a champion initiates an attack against an enemy champion, the attacking champion will continue to be viewed as the most threatening target for a short time after they have broken off the attack. This is true even if one of their allied champions has joined the fight, since minions always prioritize their current target over a new target of equal priority. If a targeted champion leaves the minions' sight, the minions will automatically reevaluate their target and will carry on walking or attacking something else. Because they are continuously reevaluating their target, minions will lose interest in an enemy champion if that champion breaks off an engagement with them, provided that there is any other target left for them to choose within range.

It replaces the wave's siege minion and, similarly to it, it takes 30% less damage from turrets. They deal more damage and have more health than any other minion, but have armor and negative magic resistance.
Minions Commander: Super Minions grant other nearby minions 70 Armor, 70 MR, and 70% increased damage.
Banner of Command cannot be used on super minions.
Hand of Baron
- +25% attack speed
- Gain +50% movement speed when within 800 units of enemy minion or turret
Interacting Items Edit
The following items interact in unique ways with minions. Each item can be improved to continue working more effectively:
- : UNIQUE - FAVOR: Being near a minion death without granting the killing blow grants 2 gold and heals for 5 health.
- : UNIQUE - SPOILS OF WAR: Melee autoattacks execute minions below 200 (+100% AD) health. Killing a minion by any means heals you and the nearest allied champion for 40 health and grants them gold equal to the kill. These effects require a nearby allied champion and consume a charge. Recharges every 60 seconds. Max 2 charges.
- : UNIQUE - TRIBUTE: Your next damaging ability or autoattack against a champion or structure will deal 10 additional damage and grant 5 gold. You generate one charge of Tribute every 10 seconds, storing up to 3. Killing a minion disables this passive for 12 seconds.
Interacting BuffsEdit
Minions can be buffed to varying degrees.
- Hand of Baron Hand of Baron grants a buff as an aura.
- Destroying an will grant all allied minions of that lane a slight buff as well spawn Super Minions in that lane.
- attack speed, armor, magic immunity, health and its kills donate the gold to its promoter. can promote a minion, granting increased
- Many champion buffs and heals will work on minions, but generally prioritize champions.
- If your team's average level is higher than the enemy's:
- Your minions deal 10% bonus damage to enemy minions. If your team has taken more turrets, this damage is increased by a further 10%.
- Your minions take 1 + (turret differential × level differential) less damage (flat) from enemy minions.
- If your average level is at least 3 levels higher and you've taken 2 more turrets in a single lane, your minions become Enraged:
- The bonus damage is increased by a further 90%.
- The flat damage reduction is increased by a further 7
- If your team's average level is higher than the enemy's:
Champion Buffs Edit

- Help, Pix! Help, Pix! (Reposition Pix)
- Shunpo Shunpo (Blink)
- Safeguard Safeguard (Dash)
- Please help this article by adding champion abilities that buff or heal minions.
Creep ScoreEdit
Gold is granted to the champion that deals the killing shot on any minion or monster. This is known as a "Last Hit" and is considered one of the most important skills in League of Legends. Last Hitting will increase a champions "Creep Score" (CS) noted at the far right of champion stats in the tab stats, or top right corner for the player's champion. CS includes kills of Jungle Monsters and Champion Pets. In the early and mid game, CS can be used as a gauge for comparing how well a player is doing against their respective lane opponent along with KDA. Many champions will use their Autoattack (AA) to Last Hit, but several champions, especially AP champs, also have low cost, low cooldown target or area burst spells to last hit. Melee minions can take two tower hits and be easy to AA for most ad champions. Caster minions are best to hit once before taking a single tower hit, then hit again for the Last Hit.
Game Terminology Edit
The following are other terms used in league to quickly explain a situation or method involving minions.
- Lane Momentum: The direction and strength a lane's minions are working toward without champion aid.
- Pushing: Attacking the minions before Last Hitting so as to keep allied minions alive and allow them to move closer to the enemy turret.
- Freezing: Stopping the enemy minions from pushing the lane any further without pushing back.
- Monster Wave: A wave that builds up to a very large number of minions and can take out most if not all of a turret without champion aid.
- Free Farming: When a champion is left unopposed in a lane to kill minions for the purpose of gaining gold and experience.
- Proxy Farming: When a champion goes behind an enemy tower to kill enemy minions without the aid of allied minions.
- Split Pushing: Pushing a lane's minions forward for the purpose of taking out a tower while the enemy team is else where on the map.
Trivia Edit
- If the champions do not interfere in the battle, one team of minions will eventually win the game. Which team will win is completely random, depending on which team focuses the enemy minions better.
- When minions scan for a target, it is possible for a champion to pick up aggro multiple times from a minion. Minions can constantly pick up aggro from you and can follow you through the jungle.
- By default, minions and bases in Summoner's Rift are colored as blue bottom and red top. With later patches an option was added that changed the color of the minions and bases so that the allied side was always blue colored and the enemy red. This does not change the minion or base models, it only gives them the appropriate colors. This has no ties with the lore and is a purely an aesthetic option within the game.
- Minions are sometimes called "Winions" if minions are destroying enemy turrets, nexuses without the help of an allied champion or being able to sufficiently kill an enemy champion.

Tyler, The Creator continues tour despite arrest
Listen to Tyler, The Creator on iHeartRadio
Odd Future rapper Tyler, The Creator isn't slowing down his tour despite his Saturday arrest for allegedly inciting a riot at Austin's South By Southwest festival.
On Twitter, Tyler thanked fans in Dallas for showing up to his Saturday night show at the House of Blues just hours after he was released from an Austin jail.
The emcee also took the opportunity to lash out at those who have mistakenly connected his arrest with the tragic incident involving an alleged drunk driver who struck a crowd outside of a festival venue earlier in the week. He asked people to "stop going out of your way" to tie him to the accident that killed two people, adding "it bums me out."
Dear You, That Tragedy That Happened Has Absolutly NOTHING To Do With The Show At Thrasher At A Different Location A Day Later - T
— Tyler, The Creator (@fucktyler) March 16, 2014
So Please Stop Going Out Of Your Way To Mention The Tragedy And Tie Me To It, Thats Not Cool And It Bums Me Out
— Tyler, The Creator (@fucktyler) March 16, 2014
Tyler, The Creator's tour heads to Orlando, Florida on Monday, followed by shows in Tampa, Fort Lauderdale and Atlanta.

Reviews of this property
Bardzo mały pokój razem z kuchnią i sypialnia. Wszytko w malutkim pokoiku. Gorąco! Widok na obdrapane ściany budynku. Ale czysto i pościel ok. Łóżko słabe.
Nice is a great city!!
The apartment was a fine place to stay; after 5 minutes walk you are at the beach, to the old town is a bit further to walk, but you can walk there and the supermarket is around the corner.
There are many buses in the city and also to and from the airport and the train station.
Salvatore is very helpful and kind person and he helped me with a few questions I had.
In the apartment was everything there that I needed during my stay and there was even a city map. Very useful!
Grazie a Salvatore e al suo staff mi sono trovato nel piccolo appartamento nel cuore di Nizza a pochi passi dal mare e dal centro città. Esperienza da consigliare per chi non ha grosse pretese ma vuole godersi il " tutto a portata di mano"...
Unico consiglio: non andateci in macchina perché è difficile trovare parcheggio
Per il resto tutto rispettato come da accordi. Grazie Salvatore
Salvatore welcomed us at his agency and gave us heaps of tips for exploring Nice. In addition to that, the apartment was equipped with a 20-pages brochure about Nice and surroundings, including getting there by bus or train.
The apartment was well maintained and clean and is within walking distance to all major locations in Nice. Outside the building, there are several bus stops, supermarkets (already spotted by Salvatore) and a bike hiring station (Vélo bleu).
We've enjoyed our stay and can highly recommend Salvatore.
Thanks again and see you :)
We had a real nice time in this studio! It's got everything you might need, including a microwave, pots, pans, dishes, hairdryer....everything clean and in good condition!
The studio is located very central, so you reach the beach in a ten minute walk, stores right around the corner, the promenade only a few minutes away. Also the busstation is very close.
We would definetly come back if we ever come to Nice again!
Good location. If you are looking for very low budget stay this can be it for you. But do not expect any romance, the room is very small, no admosphere and we had a broken bed / couch.
Good shower but unfortunatelly warm water ran out after less then 5 minutes.
We complained and were offered another appartment. We had to pay extra but I think this was a fair deal. The other appartment was FANTASTIC! (5 Rue Francois Aune)
We were very happy with this appartment - exactly what we needed. The location was perfect - a few minutes from the beach and a short walk from the pedestrianised area and then the Old Town. It was perfectly well equipped and we would definitely go there again.
Many thanks
Salvatore was very helpful, reliable and apartment has all the important things (even an iron, hairdryer). The boardwalk to the beach is about 5 minutes walk away.The center is not far away, there are nearby bus stops, many shops, restaurants of any kind .. This apartment is the location and facilities here in any case recommended and perfect from the price!
Salvatore war sehr hilfsbereit, zuverlässig und sein Appartement verfügt über alle wichtigen Dinge (sogar ein Bügeleisen, Fön). Die Promenade mit dem Strand ist zu Fuß ca. 5 Minuten entfernt.Das Zentrum ist nicht weit entfernt, es gibt in der Nähe Bushaltestellen, sehr viele Geschäfte, Restaurants beliebiger Art...Dieses Appartement ist von der Lage und Ausstattung her auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert und vom Preis her perfekt!
Everything was clean and good. Thank you.
Alles sauber und gut. Danke.

One day, Mr. Krabs is shown looking through a telescope on the top of the Krusty Krab, spying on customers and taking pictures of any Bikini Bottom residents. He then enters the restaurant and calls SpongeBob and Squidward into his office. He shows them the pictures of the customers and asks SpongeBob if he has seen any of them inside the Krusty Krab. SpongeBob says that he has not seen pretty much all of them and Squidward says that he prefers not to look directly at the customers, and thus does not know if any of them have been in the restaurant. Mr. Krabs then tells SpongeBob and Squidward that 2 percent of the residents of Bikini Bottom have not set foot in the Krusty Krab, and therefore, 2 percent of money not in his pocket. He tells them that he wants them to go out and promote the restaurant, and SpongeBob is eager to do so, while Squidward refuses to, since he will not get overtime pay.
The next scene, SpongeBob is shown coming out of a giant hole at the top of the Krusty Krab wearing a Krabby Patty costume and jumping off of a giant spatula. He asks a random fish if he has heard of the Krusty Krab, and he tells SpongeBob that he is just about to enter the restaurant. The man takes flyers that SpongeBob is offering about the Krusty Krab and leaves. Patrick is then shown watching SpongeBob, whom he believes to be evidence of the "invasion of the giant patties" from behind a giant rock. He then lunges out at his friend and tries to eat him. When SpongeBob tells him that he is inside the costume, Patrick thinks that the patty ate SpongeBob and continues to attack him, and launches him into the air. The costume lands on top of Plankton, who is about to go to the Krusty Krab to attempt to steal the Krabby Patty formula. Patrick makes sure that SpongeBob is okay, and SpongeBob tells him of his job to promote the Krusty Krab. Patrick tells SpongeBob that he needs an even bigger advertisement blitz.
Patrick has then shown shaving the message "Eat at the Krusty Krab" on SpongeBob's back, and painting the message on the walls with black paint. SpongeBob is then used to stamp the message all over downtown. A cop walks by and considers arresting them for graffiti, but then decides to go get a Krabby Patty instead. Patrick tells SpongeBob that he had hired a skywriter, but the skywriter falls out of the plane, holding a clipboard that says "Help me", and crashes onto the edge of a cliff. A scout leader and three campers are then shown, on a tour of the oldest tree in Bikini Bottom. However, the tree falls over when Patrick creates the advertisement out of its leaves.
SpongeBob is then shown exiting a bathroom stall and telling a man that they had left a present for him. The man walks into the stall and sees that "Eat at the Krusty Krab" is written on every sheet of toilet paper. Patrick is then shown flying a plane with a banner advertisement in back, and SpongeBob is shown flying a blimp. Patrick almost crashes into SpongeBob, but somehow the blimp avoids the plane. They soon collide, however, and both fall to the ground, screaming. Pilar expresses that if he sees the words "Krusty Krab" one more time, he will scream. When the blimp and plane both crash in front of him, and he sees that it says "Krusty Krab", he screams so loud, it sucks in the skin of SpongeBob and Patrick. When the skin returns to its normal condition, the two have each other's skin instead of their own.
Suddenly, a cellphone is heard ringing inside of Patrick's pocket, and it turns out to be Mr. Krabs, calling them and telling them that their Advertisement Campaign is working well, and that the Krusty Krab is packed, as well as that some of the customers who had never previously entered the restaurant are now there. Squidward is shown cooking the patties as well as taking customer's orders. Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob and Patrick to continue doing what they have been doing and to try to find the last 1 percent, which they are unsure of how to find. They realize that they did not advertise over a highway of boats, and SpongeBob is reluctant to do so, thinking that they will get run over. Patrick turns into a traffic cone and makes a truck stop, and "Eat at the Krusty Krab" is then painted on the truck's side by SpongeBob.
The two then go back to the Krusty Krab to tell to Mr. Krabs they made it, and the customers are coming in. SpongeBob was about to go back on the grill when he looked in the windows. He founds out that the customers were angry about how they turned it into an Eat at the Krusty Krab place. He and Patrick tried their best to hold the door, but Mr. Krabs doesn't care and founds the last 1% of the whole Bikini Bottom. As the customers were breaking the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs grabs the customer and brings him to the top of Krusty Krab and gives him a Krabby Patty. He is glad that the advertising campaign had paid off. The episode ends with the Krusty Krab breaking apart and with them left onscreen.

- This episode is on the Bikini Bottom Buddies and Complete Eighth Season DVDs.
- As of May 3, 2017, The Internet Movie Database (IMDB) gives this episode a rating of 7.6/10 based on 59 ratings by users.[1] TV.com users give this episode a 7.7/10 based on 7 votes.[2]
- Some of the hillbillies from "Trenchbillies" can be seen in the truck.
- However, unlike the ones from the episode "Trenchbillies," these ones had pupils.
- Mr. Krabs states on how many people have never eaten a Krabby Patty. However, in "Just One Bite," SpongeBob seems so shocked when he found out that Squidward has never eaten one.
- Originally, this episode was going to have SpongeBob try to get a good nickname for the Krusty Krab. The plot changed sometime in January 2012. This was scrapped for unknown reasons.
- This episode first aired with "Squid Baby." It's a Season 9 episode, despite this being a Season 8 episode.
- When this premiered, at the end of the episode, the credits showed the cast for "The Good Krabby Name" and "Move It or Lose It" instead of "Squid Baby" and "The Good Krabby Name."
- Though, this might be because "Squid Baby" is a Season 9 episode.
- Patrick refers to a previous episode, "To Save a Squirrel," from Season 5. When he said 'I know what to do, It's Eat Or Be Eaten'. This is the second episode in the series to reference a past episode. The first time was in "Whelk Attack," when SpongeBob said he had the suds, which is a reference to the episode, "Suds."
- In several past episodes it is stated that everyone in Bikini Bottom has eaten at the Krusty Krab at least once meaning this episode has been in a past time.
- This is the third time a highway is shown. The first two were in "Mid-Life Crustacean" and "SpongeBob's Last Stand."
- A conjunction will also be seen in "Tutor Sauce."
- The pictures Mr. Krabs was showing the pictures of the people, some of them actually eat there.
- This is the only episode where Squidward actually can cook Krabby Patties.
- However, in "Breath of Fresh Squidward," Squidward managed to cook good Krabby Patties as well but that may be due to him turning nice.
- It could also be that Squidward has learned how to make Krabby Patties since recent episodes of the show have Squidward cooking them successfully.
- Or maybe SpongeBob or Mr. Krabs taught him how for when SpongeBob was out promoting the Krusty Krab.
- This is the third time Patrick helps advertise for the Krusty Krab. The other times were in the episodes "No Hat for Pat" and "Chum Bucket Supreme."
- In this the fifth time SpongeBob flies something himself, in this case, a blimp. He also flew a blimp in "Treats!" and also flown a plane in "Have You Seen This Snail?," and attempted to fly one in "The Sponge Who Could Fly." He flew a hot air balloon in "Are You Happy Now?," and flew a flying submarine in "Hide and Then What Happens?." The next time SpongeBob is up in the sky will be in "License to Milkshake."
- If 2% of the population did set foot in the Krusty Krab, and 12 people was 2%, then that means there must be at least 600 people in Bikini Bottom by now. The population must have increased by 62 since "What Ever Happened to SpongeBob?" because the population in that episode was 538.
- This episode premiered in Canada on Johnny Knoxville's 42nd birthday and eight years after The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie was released in Austria.
- This is the second time Patrick shaves SpongeBob. The first was in "Scaredy Pants."
- This episode and "Squid Baby" premiered right before a commercial-free airing of the original version of "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial," in celebration of the film's 30th anniversary at the time.
- Pilar said that he was going to scream if he saw another Krusty Krab ad, then he saw the blimp and in the next shot his skin had turn blue.
- His eye orientation changed as well.
- When Squidward left the Krusty Krab, he threw his hat on the ground near SpongeBob, Patrick, and Mr. Krabs. In the next shot, his hat wasn't there.
- When Patrick said he could see his house, SpongeBob's house walkway was solid black.
- Mr. Krabs took a picture of an old lady without glasses but when he shows the picture to SpongeBob the old lady has glasses on.
- Some fish in the pictures have been to the Krusty Krab before.
- It is possible that they are different fish, but have the same design as other fish.
- When the boats fall off the highway across from the Krusty Krab, the Chum Bucket is missing.
- SpongeBob and Patrick jump off the highway on the right side. Thaddeus swerves left, instead.
- However, Thaddeus landed where the Chum Bucket would be, so this would be explainable.
- The "big pile of roads" has multiple roads when the camera first pans to it. In the next shot, there is only 1 road.
- SpongeBob and Patrick were able to climb up onto the road, which should have been impossible, considering that the roads were so high up.
- The roads were missing after the cars crashed to the ground.
- Norton, the orange mailfish, climbs out of the car pile, but the green mail fish (the last one percent) is the one at the door.

By Attorney General Roy Cooper
Warm weather is finally here and many homeowners are doing some spring cleaning. Scammers may try to take advantage of your desire to keep your home in good shape by offering what sounds like a great deal but turns out to be a rip off.
Recently, scammers have used illegal robocalls offering cheap air duct cleaning for heating and air conditioning systems to try to worm their way into homes.
These con artists will give a fake name and promise service for $69. But when crews arrive, they come up with reasons why the cleaning will cost more. They claim you have too many air ducts or an unconventional system. Suddenly the cost balloons to $1,000.
Sometimes the scammers go as far as to tell you there's toxic mold in your duct work and you must leave the house immediately so they can fix it. They'll do a few dollars' worth of work and then bill you $5,000 or more.
Home repair scammers often move around, making them difficult to catch. But we've been able to use complaints from consumers like you to track down some of these con artists and win money back for victims. We recently stopped a Wake County roofer from taking money upfront from homeowners and never completing promised work, and helped put a notorious paving scammer we'd chased for years in federal prison.
If you've been approached by a home repair scammer, report it to us at 1-877-5-NO-SCAM and to local law enforcement.
To stop problems before they start, remember these tips when hiring someone to work on your home:

Brady named Henrico Christmas Mother
Citizen Staff Reports 10/02/12
Terry McConnell Brady, a retired Henrico County math teacher, has been named the 2012 Henrico Christmas Mother.
A native of Abingdon, Va., where she grew up on a farm with three brothers, Brady resides in the Tuckahoe District and is a long-time member of Tuckahoe Presbyterian Church, where she serves as a Sunday school teacher and works in the outreach division. She also volunteers with Meals on Wheels and the American Cancer Society, and has been involved with the Henrico Christmas Mother program for three years.
Brady has been married to her husband, Patrick, for 48 years and they have three children and six grandchildren. She enjoys spending time with her family as well as reading and gardening.
