Before the end of the year, we need to raise $75,000 from reader donations.
Because of the generosity of our contributors, we have added reporters to our staff and broadened our coverage. As a result, our readership has grown by 60 percent since last summer to more than 80,000 unique readers a month.
The most convenient way to become a part of VTDigger is to become a sustaining member and make an automatic donation of $5 to $20 (or more) each month by credit card. We also offer an annual membership for readers who prefer to give once a year. Of course, you can continue to give on an ad hoc basis if that best suits your needs.
You can become a member today by making a monthly contribution or a one-time donation through our PayPal account.
You can also make a donation by check to VTDigger.org, 64 Main St., Suite 27, Montpelier VT 05602. Your gift is tax deductible.
Your donation is matched dollar for dollar by a capacity building challenge grant of $75,000 from the Ethics & Excellence in Journalism Foundation. We need your support to reach this $75,000 goal and to continue our aggressive reporting on state government.
Thanks for reading and supporting VTDigger.

A gorgeous hand made African necklace. .
This necklace has been made from recycled glass by a group of physically challenged in Tanzania, East Africa.
The beads have been crushed using hand made tools to a very fine powder, then placed into hand made molds and placed in a clay kiln fired with coffee wood, as to not cut down trees.
The glass beads have been wrapped in the most beautiful baby blue silk fabric.
Can be worn as a choker or adjusted to suit. This will complement any outfit you wear.
You will not be disappointed.
A wonderful gift idea.
Thank you for supporting the people in Tanzania.

About the Book
All of these photographs were shot in Chicago's near north side in and around my studio. I was beginning graduate school at the Art Institute of Chicago and my original intention, when I purchased a Nikon F, was only to use the camera to document my paintings. However almost every day, in the late afternoon, my camera and I would take a walk through the neighborhood.
After 3 years and over 6000 slides later as I was getting ready to leave Chicago … going west to points unknown ... and in an effort to "get light, " I edited the slides down to about 600 images. I regret that now!
They were originally shot in Ektachromes and Kodachromes, which I have scanned and printed.

"I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened."
"So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
—A conversation between Frodo and Gandalf, The Fellowship of the Ring
Our world is in a mess. Have you seen the signs?
I (Ben Lowe here!) turn 25 this year and – in my relatively short and sheltered lifetime – I've already witnessed too much destruction and suffering. Now, I haven't experienced most of it personally (except for a severe bout with malaria and some other less-than-charming intestinal parasites), but that's merely because I was born into a good family as a citizen of the reigning global empire.
Even so, I've witnessed how we blow up entire mountains in Appalachia to get at a narrow seam of coal underneath. I've seen street children with swollen bellies picking through mounds of garbage for food. I've seen forests burning, rivers dying, and wells drying up. I've also seen the reports and bleak predictions for our future – the future that I'm inheriting.
Is it possible to fix these problems? Do we still stand a chance? At Renewal, we hear these questions a lot and we can certainly relate to the feeling. It's easy to despair and feel overwhelmed. But whenever we need inspiration, we look to our peers and see a faith, passion, and activism that energizes us. Our generation has a big role to play today and we have the power to bring real, lasting good.
The role of students and campuses is especially important here. As we all grapple with contemporary problems like climate change and biodiversity extinction, the church often looks to Christian colleges and seminaries for wisdom and leadership. After all, these are the places where much of the scholarship, writing, and organizing originates from. These institutions are also training grounds for thousands of Christian students who, every summer and after graduation, are sent out in waves to go make a difference for Christ.
As we continue to mobilize around the environmental and human crises of today, I'm reminded of Wilberforce and his campaign to outlaw slavery in England. Not too long ago they released an inspiring film on this story called Amazing Grace. In it, the young Prime Minister William Pitt tells his abolitionist friend Wilberforce that, "we're too young to realize that certain things are impossible, so we'll do them anyway."
I think there's a lot of truth to that. They eventually succeeded in the huge task before them and, by the grace of God, so will we.

NFL Training Camp is less than a month away, but if you're looking for a statistical analysis of the upcoming Rams season, you've come to the wrong place. We are here to share Dude Perfect's latest video featuring Greg Zuerlein and Johnny Hekker, the Rams' kicker and punter, respectively.
For the past year, Dude Perfect has specialized in viral videos displaying seemingly impossible basketball shots. Over the house, from a moving car, on top of a skyscraper; anything is fair game for Dude Perfect. But they've never mastered the gridiron. That is, until today. The Rams brought them out to their practice facilities in Earth City and changed that.
In all seriousness, the Rams work in social arena is unparalleled.
Their ability to leverage young players and think outside the box with campaigns such as the Jeff Fisher fake mustaches, iPhone apps and little skits like this are making the collective brand much more fun to consume.

Apparently, everybody else was busy
Blog ››› ››› JAMISON FOSER
In a speech less than two weeks ago, Dick Cheney blasted the New York Times for "publishing secrets in a way that could only help al-Qaeda. It impressed the Pulitzer committee, but it damn sure didn't serve the interests of our country, or the safety of our people." Prior to that, Cheney's most famous comment about a journalist was probably agreeing with his (nominal) boss, George W. Bush, that Times reporter Adam Clymer was a "major league asshole." A "Big time" asshole, Cheney emphasized.
On the other hand, he never shot a reporter in the face, as far as we know.
That apparently makes Cheney the perfect choice to speak at a presentation of the Gerald R. Ford Foundation Journalism Awards today.
Here's a description of the foundation's journalism awards:
In 1988, the Gerald R. Ford Foundation established the Journalism Prize Competition. With this annual award, President Ford wanted to recognize and encourage thoughtful, insightful, and enterprising work by journalists covering the presidency and national defense. The Foundation is proud to continue this tradition. Again this year, the Foundation will award two $5,000 prizes for distinguished reporting on the presidency or national defense during calendar year 2008. The awards will be presented in June 2009 in Washington, D.C.
Yeah, Cheney is the perfect choice to speak at an event honoring "enterprising work by journalists covering the presidency and national defense."

I'd love to see systat or iostat included in the additional

Snow! Snow! Snow!
I'd almost forgotten how beautiful the Sierra is covered in snow.
I'd almost forgotten how beautiful the Sierra is covered in snow.
Rise and shine! It's another beautiful morning in Yosemite!
Oh, our love of webcams will never bee satiated. DNC has set up a webcam at Badger Pass for your viewing pleasure.
There's a great new webcam from the Yosemite Conservancy. Check it out!
Here's a beautiful shot off the Yosemite Conservancy webcam.
Reader Lori Ann sent me this awesome image from this weekend she saw on the webcam.
Jorma, the guy who makes the awesome time-lapse videos from the Yosemite Conservancy webcams, posted a photo on his website that mirrors exactly what I've been wondering the last couple of weeks. Where's the snow?
Just because we're stuck inside doesn't mean we can't enjoy a beautiful sunset does it?
Check out this really cool time lapse of the clouds over Half Dome and the Sierra.
Put a little snow on the ground, add some clouds, a bit of sun for contras and voila! Today's Photo of the Day.

Rational Bubbles and Fractional Alternatives
This paper suggests a new and more flexible framework for studying the existence of rational bubbles in stock prices. The present value model provides the robust no rational bubbles restriction of a stationary price-dividend ratio. The validity of this restriction has previously been investigated, but we extend the test procedure to allow for fractionally integrated alternatives. Thus, the price-dividend ratio may be a stationary process, where the mean-reversion is at a much slower (persistent) rate than that of stationary ARMA specifications. This pesistence may be hard to detect using traditional random walk tests. Indeed, when testing the no rational bubble restriction on US and Swedish data this distinction is important. For Sweden we conclude that the price-dividend ratio is ruled by a fractionally integrated process (no rational bubble), whereas it follows a unit root process for the US (a rational bubble). Using Dickey-Fuller type tests the unit root hypothesis cannot be rejected for any of the markets.

A Japanese man could be liable for hotel bills and fumigation costs after baby scorpions escaped from his apartment, leading to the evacuation of 11 other families.
The man, in his 20s, had been keeping a female scorpion as a pet in his apartment in Okayama, 550 kilometres west of Tokyo. But last month it gave birth to about 50 baby scorpions.
The mother killed some of her babies to feed the others, but some escaped, said Takashi Yasunobu, an employee of the city's health and sanitation section.
A neighbour discovered one of the infant scorpions on Wednesday last week and took it to the city authorities.
To be on the safe side, the authorities urged residents of the building to evacuate immediately.
After an investigation, the owner admitted some of the babies had got out, officials said.
"We don't know how many escaped," said Mr Yasunobu.
While the mother, about 12 centimetres long, was poisonous, the sting of the smaller scorpions would be "like being bitten by a mosquito", he said.
The man apologised and offered to pay the hotel bills for the evacuated residents as well as the cost of exterminating the scorpions, Mr Yasunobu said.

text: "They don't really need to do anything crazy -- the competition is not there right now," added the analyst. "There is no one that is going to dethrone them anytime soon." According to figures released last month by The NPD Group, Apple owned 69% of the digital music market in the first half of 2009, followed by Amazon ( AMZN) MP3 with just 8%. Customers have already downloaded more than 8 billion songs from iTunes since its launch in 2003, but there is room for growth. The NPD Group found that CDs accounted for 65% of all music sold in the U.S. in the first six months of the year, with digital downloads making up the remainder. Apple could expand this by pushing more of multimedia experience, according to Gandhi. "They might want to grow that by offering other things like the rumored 'cocktail' project," she said. "That seems to me more realistic than any other speculation that we have seen." An attempt to stimulate digital sales of albums, the cocktail project is said to involve interactive booklets and sleeve notes bundled with music downloads. The Financial Times recently reported that Apple is already working with music labels such as EMI and Sony Music ahead of a September launch. Intriguingly, the invites to tomorrow's event bore the Rolling Stones lyric "it's only rock and roll, but we like it," hinting at some form of high-profile music announcement. Ultimately, though, Apple's iTunes strategy may be something a sideshow in its broader consumer tech circus. "They essentially see themselves as a device company," said Gandhi. "iTunes is a good business for them, but it's not what drives them." -- Written by James Rogers in New York.

Ester Hernandez is one of the pioneers of the Chicano art movement. She grew up in the migrant farm-working community of the central San Joaquin Valley of California, and she experienced firsthand the farm-worker's struggle. Surrounded by artisans within her family: her mother continued the family tradition of embroidery from Central Mexico; her grandfather was a master carpenter and made religious sculpture in his spare time; Ester's father was an amateur photographer and visual artist—and by her personal involvement with the farm-worker community, Ester developed a great interest in community arts, committing herself to "visually depict the dignity, strength, experiences and dreams of Latina women through printmaking and pastels." (E.H.) Ester Hernandez has created art relating to farm-workers, pesticides, laborers, women's issues, civil rights and social justice. Her work has been exhibited at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington D.C., UCLA, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Mexican Museum, Galería de la Raza and Internationally. As of this writing in 2006, Ester Hernandez teaches and manages at Creativity Explored, a San Francisco art production and education center for developmentally-challenged adults.

Now that Charlie Sheen has been fired from "Two and a Half Men," who do you think should replace him on the Warner Bros.-produced, CBS-airing sitcom? We don't have a shortlist. We have a long list. Some of the actors on it may even be in contention for the role. Others are from wishlists across the web, and maybe a few from agencies around Hollywood.
If you have a suggestion for the next "Two and a Half Men" star, leave it in the comments below.

EDITORIALS>>TIFs make bad policy
Mayor Patrick Henry Hays and the North Little Rock City Council this week approved four new tax-increment financing districts, which will take thousands of dollars away from the citys financially distressed schools for many years, maybe a quarter century. The North Little Rock School Board expressed its unhappiness.
Well try again to explain this crazyquilt problem. Tax-increment-financing (TIF) districts, which were sneaked into the Constitution by an initiative amendment in 2002, take the annual growth in property tax revenues in a designated TIF district and use it to pay off bonds issued for capital improvements that help commercial developments. The theory is that the commercial improvements increase property values and real-estate taxes so those extra taxes should be used to finance the improvements. TIFs originally were supposed to combat urban blight, although they can be used in a country club subdivision in Arkansas.
The Arkansas Supreme Court last year ruled that TIF districts could not get their hands on the revenue growth from the first 25 mills levied by a school district because those taxes were actually a state tax, which was remitted to the state government and redistributed among the 250 or so school districts in Arkansas. But the court did not rule whether the tax growth on a school districts millage above 25 mills could be taken away from the schools and used by the city to help private developers.
That question needs to be decided for the sake of school children. The Constitution says that taxes levied by the voters for the schools cannot be used for other purposes. We do not think the 2002 amendment repealed that law, which was put into the Constitution to reassure voters that if they voted to tax themselves for schools then state or local lawmakers could never confiscate the taxes and use them for another purpose.
TIFs are popular with city and county officials everywhere, and why not? They take credit for capital improvements but do not have to take the heat for raising taxes or diverting money from other city and county programs to do it. The school people already took the heat. Its every politicians dream. But it is terrible public policy, and we think the courts will stop if the issue is presented to them squarely.

I just finished going through this week's batch of pictures and I found some inspiring pixels for your pupils. I tried to hit all the usual bases with some big hits, a couple quality individual stills and a few that I found to be amusing. Hopefully that's the combination your eye balls are bulging to see.
I'm starting to prefer writing articles with pictures and captions rather than writing out complete thoughts, tying it all together and having to double check my spelling and grammar. This is just significantly more fun; Is there a lucrative career track in selecting and captioning photos?
Not sure that there is, but I'm going to look into it.
My picture book future aside, scroll down the page to see some great shots from the weekend's action. As always, chime in any thoughts down in the comments.
(Photo by Bill Danielewski; Great Shot of Jimmy Dunster at work. Big Wind-up + Formidable Flow = Picture of the Week)
(Photo by Bill Danielewski; Nobody in this picture looks happy about the circumstances. Billy even looks a bit.....Bitter....about it all. I promise I'll never do that again.)
(Photo by Peyton Williams; Michael Burns mean mugging the back-check; I can recall my first Steeler game, my first time driving and my first de-sticking; all of those moments changed my life and kept me off the streets. )
(Photo by John and Matt Risley; Fergus Campbell reminds us why we aren't goalies.)
(Photo by John and Matt Risley; Cornell was talking about Dartmouth being a safety school; a big no no in Ivy League competition)
(Photo by John and Matt Risley; Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe those are 2nd Generation Michael Vicks the keeper is wearing, I was rocking those in 2005 at Ursinus. Either way, "No you're the safety school!")
(Photo by John and Matt Risley; Joking aside it was a great win for Dartmouth. Good time for an Alpha Tower for Andy Towers' first Ivy win.
(Photo by John and Matt Risley; Great tilt action by Princeton's Tyler Fiorito, if a prime time goalie can rock the tilt, so can you. BAN THE HELMET WHEELY)
(Photo by John and Matt Risley; Pretty daunting dodge by Thomas Muldoon through the Tigers' Tsunami of Terror, but nobody realizes he doesn't have the ball.)
(Photo by John and Matt Risley; Bam Time for Matt Greenberg. Love the Maverick socks, but I don't get the red cleats.)
(Photo by Travis Scepaniak; OK great shot of the Terp's crowd and it was a great game, but take a look at the kid with the 'R" on his chest. That's passion, that's pure passion. He's putting those kids to shame with that bellow of fury. Look at "G" and "O", they're having a good time, causally taking in some lax on a nice night, but "R" is on another leve; I think he made the kid next to him cry he wants this win so bad.)
(Photo by Travis Scepaniak; I want to know what song Rhamel Bratton keeps in his head, the man has swagger.)
(Photo by Bill Danielewski, Someone didn't give Gilman a quality scout, because everyone knows if your defenseman has dyed mesh inside a dyed head, he's only throwing junk. An orange head hasn't seen a poke check since the blizzard of '96.)

I have heard this is used on men who want to improve their faces and female to males transsexuals who want to take away their feminine characteristics. What is included in this type of surgery and how does it improve the patient's face?
Facial Masculinization Surgery
Doctor Answers 3
Masculinizing facial features
Many things can be done to make a face look more masculine starting with the hairline and going down to the neck. The hairline could be altered to have a more masculine shape, , the brows and the underlying bone contoured, the cheeks and nose can be altered and the lips, chin and jaw can be reshaped. Mustache and beard hair transplants can be done if there is sparse facial hair.
What is recommended depends so much on the existing features. It would be intersting if you could sulbmit a photo or two (of yourself or a face you consider feminine) and again ask this question.
Facial feminization and masculinization.
With feminization I refine the nose, brows, chin, cheeks, and Adam's apple. Masculinization depends on what the patient already has in their facial features. Making the chin and nose larger, as well as dropping high brows and making the cheeks larger will do this.
Feminizing facial features
There are 2 components to this type of surgery-the bone component and the soft tissue component. The first involves squaring of the jaw and chin, usually with facial implants, and adustments to the nasal bridge outline. The second involves adjustments to the eyebrow position or outline and adjusting nasal tip rotation to 90 degrees. Feminizing the face would involve the opposite i.e rounding out the chin and jawline, arching the eyebrows, making the nasal bridge concave in line with the eyebrow arching, adjusting nasal tip rotation to 100 degress plus forehead contouring as needed.

• Pitt freshman kicker Chris Blewitt created the most excitement of the first two days of training camp when he hit field goals of 29, 35, 41 and 47 yards at the end of practice Tuesday. Coach Paul Chryst put a value on the last one, threatening to have players do down-ups if Blewitt missed. The team cheered when Blewitt split the uprights. Chryst liked the enthusiasm, but it didn't surprise him. "I put a little wager on it," Chryst said. "There was a reason for them to rally."
• Wide receiver Devin Street crashed hard to the grass when he dived for a long, incomplete pass. He stayed on the ground for several seconds before walking back to the group and using an inhaler to help him catch his breath. "I'm in shape. I have to get back into football shape," he said. "I should have got up quicker. Next time, I will." A few snaps later, he caught another long pass from quarterback Tom Savage. "That's what you have to do, come back and respond," he said. "I have to train myself now so in the game it comes easy."
• Pitt associate athletic director Chris Ferris said the university has sold 88 percent of its season tickets. At this time a year ago, Pitt had sold only 70 percent, he said. Ferris also said he expects to sell all 10,000 of the student tickets.
• When he was promoted, defensive coordinator Matt House promised to use many players. So far, he has done that. "We are trying to expose a bunch of different guys to a bunch of different situations," he said.
• Pitt still could be haunted by a return to Birmingham, Ala., for a bowl game. The ACC completed its bowl lineup for the 2014-2019 seasons, and the Birmingham game will be a second conditional choice if another conference it is tied to can't send a team. BBVA Compass will end its sponsorship of the game after this season.

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' Star Kandi Burruss REVEALS Wedding Photos With New Husband Todd Tucker [WATCH]
We almost thought we wouldn't see the day, but "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kandi Burruss has married the love of her life, Todd Tucker, and did they have quite the extravagant wedding!
According to NecoleBitchie, Kandi finally gave viewers an inside look into her beautiful wedding ceremony with her latest In Touch magazine cover, and from the looks of the pictures Kandi looked absolutely radiant. See photo's HERE.
The Bravo cameras were rolling for he entire wedding event on April 4 when Kandi and Todd finally exchanged nuptials in front of their 300 most closest friends and family members including her RHOA cast mates.
With Kandi's affinity for luxury, her wedding was completely over the top as the singer/songwriter spent a reportedly $400,000 on the lavish Atlanta wedding, with $20,000 of wedding expenses going towards her gorgeous wedding dress. Kandi looked astonishingly elegant and chic in her mermaid-fit gown, donned with hundreds of Swarovski crystals, ostrich feathers and a 12-foot long train, made by Atlanta desiger Reco Chappel.
"Actually at first I was a bit mad because people in her camp did not want me to make it. Kandi explained that she was comfortable with working with me. She decided to go with me as the designer and I was honored," Reco dished during a recent interview with "Talking With Tammy"We used a power mesh nude illusion material for the foundation which came from NYC. The ostrich feathers were flown in from China and the Swarovski crystals were flown in from India. She didn't wear a veil but her tiara was custom made from Kelvin Russell."
"We worked on Kandi's gown morning, noon and night! Sun up, till sun down! It took a little over a week and a half. The Swarovski crystals were hand woven into the dress and was full of intricate details. We also made all 7 bridesmaid dresses as well," he said. "She wore a mesh Christian Louboutin Body Strass Mesh heel that was worth $1,195."
As we previously reported, Kandi couldn't stop beaming over her big day, stating that it was "one of the best days of my life."
"I never imagined that I would marry my best friend. Todd's been that to me and to have just had the wedding of my dreams, it's all been so beautiful. Now it's time to party," she said to In Touch mag after the ceremony.
The reality star took to her Instagram and posted a video of a few pages of her In Touch wedding cover and give fans an insight on her wedding day.
"I just got my copy of @intouchweekly that has pics from @todd167 & my wedding! I'm still smiling since last week! Lol! Playing is "Forever Love" from #AMotherlove soundtrack. Which is me & Todd's theme song. Get it now on ITunes & the DVD at KandiOnline.com. Look at my beautiful bridesmaids..@majorgirl @tasiasword @tamera_wynn @camcambi@rasheedadabosschick @phaedraparks & my cousin Joyce "Winnie" Dallas," the 37-year-old captioned the flipgram video.
While most of Kandi's engagement has been aired out on season six of RHOA, fans of the music mogul will be thrilled to know the reality star may be getting her own wedding spin off, much like her cast mate NeNe Leakes did with her wedding spin off, "I Dream of NeNe."
Bravo cameras followed Kandi every step of the way as she prepared to walk down the isle with Todd.
From dress fittings to Kandi's lavish bachelorette party and whatever shenanigans Mama Joyce may have provoked, Bravo cameras captured all the behind-the-scenes moments leading up to Kandi's wedding, which will air on the network sometime this year.

Talk:Chuck Norris/archive
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Big Boss?
Why the feck does Big Boss redirect here? There used to be a hilarious article on our Outer Heaven leader, but it's gone and redirects to his opposite and archrival. WTF.
what the fuck, indeed. everyone's trying to fucking kill the big boss/chuck norris connection, this is true loonecy. there doesn't have to be an article about him, but please, don't fucking redirect "big boss" to "chuck norris"!! it's like if I redirected "homosexual" to "Oscar Wilde".--22.214.171.124 21:36, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
- The Big Boss article was VFD'd twice in a week. It was terrible and it most certainly was not funny. The Oblong Lobster 15:08, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
- So instead redirect it to an even worse article? Fuck you, oblong (that should be an insult word). --18.104.22.168 20:13, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
- That's retarded, the Big Boss article was hilarious and had me laughing my ass off whenever I read it. Bring that shit back.
- Your opinion was not shared by people who make their opinions known in VFD. Most of said voters have accounts. --THINKER 15:47, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
- I have an account, I'm just too lazy to log in right now, my username is Plissken. Had I been aware of a VFD, I would have joined in for the article's defense; It was an article of its own, and it's just like every other article on this website: FULL OF SHIT. So how can it be said that it wasn't fit for uncyclopedia standards? Bring it back, it was its own article that doesn't deserve to be redirected to this. If anything, the Chuck Norris article is full of the same type of shit, so if the Big Boss article was subject to that moderation, so too should this one be.
- Look, there's nothing funny about guys who are apparently God-like in terms of strength. This Chuck Norris shit was never funny to begin with. It sucks when somebody tries to take ANOTHER guy who is supposedly strong, like Big Boss, and basically decides to repeat what was done with the Chuck Norris "Facts". And trying to link the two together is even stupider. I don't understand how you're amused by any of this. Also, you're whining about how all articles on Uncyclopedia are "FULL OF SHIT". Get the hell out of here then, and don't come back if you think it sucks. Roman Dog Bird 01:10, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Rewriting tammy
I am thinking about Major rewriting this page, but I need help. Will you join me...Many will die...But in the end we shall cast this evil page into the dark fiery pits of edit history! I think we should make fun of how Covseveritive Chuck Norris is. JOIN ME AND YOU WILL REACH ETERNAL GLORY! --→☃☭Mr.Huffy☭☃← 09:21, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Honestly, I think the best method to take for this article is going back, calling Chuck Norris remarkably medicaore, and stating that due to his lack of popularity, he himself created all those Chuck Norris facts. Chainsawmidget 22:44, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
In my opinon, and this is just me, we should rewrite it into two halves, normal people who know Chuck is just some guy who did this or that and people who practically revere him as God.--220.127.116.11 01:32, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
This is a COMEDY website. If you do rewrite the page it will stop beeing funny. Who cares if he is mediocre? The Chuck Norris facts is one of the funniest things around. Please protect the article. Stop the spamming.
Day in the life of Chuck Norris
It's plagarized from the alphabet of manliness--18.104.22.168 21:50, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
Protect it?
This article is getting worse and worse by the day, I suggest we protect it before it fills up with any more spam. Chuck Norris is a god, but old news.
RIGHT NOW! Protect the page now as I have fixed it, quickly before it is vandalized again!--Little Jimmy 11:01, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Old news? Chuck Norris is never old news. IDIOT!--220.127.116.11 18:34, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Seeing as how the Chuck Norris Facts run rampant all over the internet, it would not be very Uncyclopedic to offer everyone with the same basic information on this site. I think we should start making this article as bland and boring as is humanly possible, I posted a copy of the wikipedia article and took out all of the pop references, to start. --KingOfCrunk 06:20, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Does no one wish to take the high road on this one? Just more shitty, nonsensical gibberish? Seriously, the humour on Uncyclopedia has taken a turn for the worse, lets give users one joke that isn't horribly obvious. As I said earlier, my reasoning is that people run into Chuck Norris jokes on every single last page they encounter in the course of their browsings on the internets. One of the basic ideologies upheld by the institution of Uncyclopedia is that we be funny, and not just stupid. I think this article has gone far past the threshold of "stupid". Chuck Norris is a tough-guy action star with an infinite amount of kung fu moves. We get it. He has magical powers. We get it. Let's have a vote here for people in favor of making this page as dull and boring as possible. --KingOfCrunk 03:51, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you for your suggestion! When you feel an article needs fixin', please feel obligated to make whatever changes you feel are needed, (even though they'll probably be reverted 5 seconds later). Uncyclopedia is a wiki, so almost anyone can edit almost any article by almost simply following the edit link almost at the top. You don't even need to log in in most cases! (Although there are some reasons why you might like to...) The Uncyclopedia Cabal encourages you to be italic. Don't worry too much about making honest mistakes—they're likely to be found and corrected quickly, and your 6 month ban will fly by faster than you think. If you're not sure how editing works, check out proper wiki formatting, or use the sandbox to try out your vandalizing skills.
- On a less canned note, I would be BEYOND glad to see this article made funny, and wish you luck. — Major Sir Hinoa (Plead) (KUN) (03:56, 5 October 2006 (UTC))

No, that idea sucks balls

Chuck Norris "Facts"
Do not add "facts" about Chuck Norris; Uncyclopedia is not the place for them. I may start banning people for adding facts. I'll probably go with 8 hours to 2 days depending on whether or not you've done anything else to redeem you. Though, I reserve the right to ban people for longer if you really piss me off. --Sir gwax (talk) 23:26, 15 Jan 2006 (UTC)
- Hang on, these "facts" you refer to are parody and not actually true facts. Why ban ANYONE for that? Are they copyvio or something? If not, I need a good explanation as to why we can't add Chuck Norris "facts" to this article. --Infobacker 22:15, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Can we add the link to a fact generator at least? The fact generator is a huge peice of the Chuck Norris fad, I think it should at least be mentioned in the artice, with the exclusion of actually incorporating any facts into the article.
- Feel free to create an external links section and include a link to a fact generator; that is perfectly acceptable. --Sir gwax (talk) 06:05, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
- How about the following list of facts?
- Chuck Norris is a six-time undefeated World Professional MiddleWeight Karate Champion.
- Chuck Norris' real name is Carlos Ray Norris.
- Chuck Norris is founder and President of United Fighting Arts Federation.
- In 1991, Chuck with his team and sponsor "Popeye Chicken" won the World Off Shore Powerboat championships.
- Chuck Norris' autobiography, "The Secret of Inner Strength" became a New York Times Best Seller.
- Chuck Norris has won the Jewish Humanitarian Man of the Year Award.
- Chuck Norris starred in "Walker, Texas Ranger" on CBS for eight years.
- Chuck Norris has fives kids called Mike, Dina, Eric, Alan and Danilee Kelly.
- Chuck Norris has appeared in over 24 films.
- Chuck Norris performed the opening of "Walker, Texas Ranger" and won the BMI Music Television Award for it.
nothing true. --188.8.131.52 07:39, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
I think Chuch Norris Facts could be fun again if people think of their own. It will bring originality and new stuff to laugh at and no one will have read it before, so it won't be boring to start with. We can also use the list of real facts and tweak them a little. Like..."Chuck Norris has five kids named Death, Illness, Hate, Disaster and Mike" --Balisc 07:24, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
"If Looks Could Kill?" - The Squint
I would like to see it added somewhere that while most looks can't kill, the famous "Chuck Norris squint" can actually kill you, and if he looks at you without his aviator sunglasses, it's possible for him to paralyze you from the neck down, like Christopher Reeve.
"[he was] Created by God" ?
I thought that: "Chuck Norris accidentally created God when he thought too hard, trying to imagine ANYONE that could equal his own skills. God was as close as he could come up with." Isn't it?
Chuck Norris pics
what happened to the michelangelo painting? if someone could please find it and put it back in here as well as any other good norris pics would be awesome. oh and it's dragonball z, not dragon ball z
Chuck Norris Roundhouse kick pic
Ok look, whoever is admining the picture for the roundhouse kick is wrong. The kick Chuck Norris is doing to that other dudes throat is not a roundhouse kick but a front snap kick. I don't mean to be rude but the image needs to be either deleted or changed to acurately express a roundhouse kick. If its not a roundhouse kick in the picture, seeing as it is an actual picture, it is infact incorrect and not funny. Again i mean no disrespect and as a martial artist myself, just want to get things strait.
Thank You,
Xero Dagujin
- Of course. Instead of calling it a roundhouse kick, just say that Chuck discovered a sure cure for hiccups. Gee whiz, use a little imagination or something. (Unsigned)
- If you (or anyone else) can find a good image of a "genuine" roundhouse kick, I'll photoshop Chuck's face onto it, if someone else doesn't get to it first. I'll admit, I didn't do a very extensive image search. --Some user 01:13, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
Hey man does it matter? If you are so offended by it not being a real roundhouse kick (remember this is Uncyclopedia, it is not mean to be factual) simply rename it to being a "Snap Kick" or whatever type of kick it is!
Whats happened to this page? 188.8.131.52 21:27, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
- I agree, revert the page or bring back the old stuff. This page used be much bigger and much better!
- Chuck Norris jokes are not funny. Anything having to do with Chuck Norris is old and tired. Please let this retarded trend die.
WTF!? (again)
The page was reverted to an older better version, and again a f#%*ing hack vandal (probably the same person as before) screwed the page again.
True dat
maybe restore it and lock it? or at least monitor who edits it, hrmm...
Add Lu Bu?
If anyone saw the Lu Bu article it has a section about his rivalary with chuck norris maybe somone can add in chuck's article about his rivalry with lu bu?
- Thanks for your suggestion. If you feel a change is needed, please go ahead and make it yourself! Uncyclopedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit link. You don't even need to log in, although there are several reasons why you might want to. Uncyclopedia convention is to be bold and do it yourself you fat lazy cunt. If you're not sure how editing works, then fuck off back to aol with all the other n00bs, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills. New contributors are always welcome.

Facts QuestionIf the facts are supposed to be on the CN/Facts page, why are alot still in the Chuck, The Man section? --Roger The Bum Full sig!
Chuck Norris: Systems Analyst
I agree wholeheartedly with the anonymous user who wrote that at the top. Normally, a simple reversal of expectation isn't the funniest you can do with a given topic — text like "John Smith is actually a woman" really has no purpose). Here, however, it would work because the rest of the Internet can be thought of as the "fake" article on Chuck Norris. It's a parody of a parody — deep, to say the least.
As far as I'm concerned, the whole "facts" thing really is a clever, if overdone internet phenom' — particularly the subtle ones like "He doesn't sleep, he waits," and less so the ones like "Chuck Norris killed everybody, including God," which don't really have a point except pure exaggeration. That said, I feel that an article about an office dweeb, with subtle hints about the phenomenon (like, "Mr. Norris occasionally wishes he could get back at that guy who mugged him on one occasion, but realized such dreams are fruitless") would definitely, in my opinion, be the best that can be done here. Of course, such a change probably wouldn't survive for more than a day before someone either reverted it or changed it all back by hand, so there wouldn't be much of a point as far as I am concerned. :(
Wait! :) What if I were to make one myself with a title like "Chuck Norris 2"? That way, people could ejaculate all their fun silliness on this one and the "other" gag could still exist somewhere. Of course, it would possibly get speedy deleted as well, but I'd be happier to risk that, I think. What do you all say?
--Lenoxus 15:38, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, most Chuck facts aren't clever. Most of the ones I've read are from a really, really old fad about Vin Diesel, with the name changed. Suddenly, when someone went and changed the names, the gag exploded with 1000x the popularity. Go figure. But yeah, I really want the cliche fad taken out of this article. It's been done. And done. And done. --User:Nintendorulez 22:54, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Tips for anybody who wants to edit the Chuck Norris Article.
- Adding just any random character you can think of to the "Those who can Defeat Chuck Norris" section isn't funny. Think of adding people who are just as ridiculously tough characters in their movies like Mr. T or Vin Diesel.
- Deleting redeeming value does not make the article funny.
- If you want to say Chuck Norris sucks, is gay, or any other insult, go to the Chuck Norris Bashers article.
- Likewise, pointless drivel should not be posted here. Go to the insanity page if you want to do that.
- Chuck Norris Facts go on the Chuck Norris/Facts page.
- Don't get pissed off at factual inaccuracies, this is Uncyclopedia, not Wikipedia.
- Saying "OMG THIZ GUY IS SO MUCH BETTER THEN CHUCK NORRIS LOLOCOPTER!!11" is not funny and has no place here. If you think someone is better then Chuck Norris, go to that someone's page to say that, not here.
Lets list the parts of the Article that need fixing up here.
Lets list the parts of the Article that need fixing up here, so we know what needs to be worked on.
- Chuck Norris and Piracy: This part is pointless drivel. It needs to be compleatly rewritten.
- Chuck Norris Haters: This part started off as a guy bashing Chuck Norris on the wrong page, (he is meant to be on the Chuck Norris Bashers page), and then someone else tried to put some redeeming value into it. It needs to be touched up (no not touched up in that way pervert!).

(8:56 pm, or 20:56, july 29, 2007) it was noted in said section that chuck eats dynamyte, and craps gunpowder, and uses it to shoot something latter in the day for his lunch. However it is actually supposed to be that he eats beef jerky, craps gunpowder and uses it to shoot more cattle to make more beef jerky, and that some call this the "circle of life"

It says in the AC/DC article that Bon Scott wounded Chuck Norris long enough to Escape, shouldn't he be on the list of deceased individuals that could pose a treath to him?

The headliner tonight in Week 7 of high school football is Ironwood Ridge-Mountain View. The Nighthawks hit the road and travel to play the Mountain Lions after back-to-back wins over Tempe Marcos de Niza and Peoria Centennial.
Now, I-Ridge has to refocus and play a Mountain View team that owns a road win at Cienega this season. Nighthawks coach Matt Johnson said the team had a "special meeting" on Tuesday about refocusing and getting ready for Mountain View.
He said practices after the meeting were much better and crisper.
In today's Daily Star, we predicted a 35-17 win for the Nighthawks.
Here's a look at the rest of our predictions:
Sunnyside 31, Cholla 14

By Pat Young, Fort Stewart Public AffairsApril 15, 2009
FORT STEWART, Ga -- Faith, hope, and support were messages shared throughout the installation's Easter Sunrise Service, April 12, at Fort Stewart's Marne Garden.
The service featured lively music performed by the Third Infantry Division Band Brass Quintet, the Live Oak Church of God Choir, and powerful stories by motivational speaker Dave Roever, who helped communicate those messages to the hundreds in attendance.
Although the morning started with a slight chill in the air, the warm welcome by the Fort Stewart's Senior Chaplain (Col.) Gary Moore, scripture reading by Senior Chaplain Assistant Sgt. 1st Class Paul Davidson, and responsive reading by Chap. (Lt. Col.) Bryan Walker, reinforced the messages of hope expressed in Roever's stories.
"You are going to have trouble in life, but you don't have to go through it alone," Roever said as he stood with disfiguring scars on his face, and confidence in his voice, and shared his story with those in attendance.
The scars, he siad, are the result of an injury received in 1969 serving in Vietnam as a boat gunner. He said while preparing to throw a white phosphorus grenade, a sniper shot him through the hand, and the grenade exploded next to his face. That moment, Roever said, and following events helped him realize his strength in faith and the power of compassionate support.
Roever told of his miraculous survival and a significant act while he was being treated for those injuries at the hospital. He said the nature of his injuries made it unbearably painful to be transported on a gurney, and he resisted being put on it; however a giant of a man, called "Rosie," stepped into his midst, and rather than force him onto the gurney, lifted him and walked him down the corridor and placed him in the water, continuously telling Roever, not to worry, and that it would be OK.
The doctors slowly removed the burnt skin from his body, Roever said, and during the painful process, he noticed Rosie was tearfully praying for him. Afterward, Rosie carried him back to his room, again reminding him not to worry, and he would be OK. Roever said Rosie didn't have to take those extra steps, but with those compassionate acts, helped him recover physically, emotionally and spiritually.
After Roever left the hospital, he inquired after Rosie, and was told Rosie arrived when Roever did, and left when he did too. No one knowing, where he came from, or where he went to. Roever said he's asked at various locations if anyone knew ofa man fitting that description, without luck. Roever doesn't know if he was a man or heaven-sent. But he does know that those acts of kindness and support helped elevate him to realize that everything was indeed all right, and that he didn't have to worry.
Rather than being bitter about his injuries, Roever found strength in his faith. He said when he couldn't carry himself, Rosie and the Lord helped.
"You can get hurt in life, but the question you have to ask yourself is, 'what you are going to do about it''"

Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall hailed his side's "character" after they came from behind to beat Gloucester 28-23 at Vicarage Road.
The Men in Black were down 13-12 at the break after Gloucester's Dan Murphy scored the first half's only try and the visitors led 20-15 in the second, before a Richard Wigglesworth try and the boot of Charlie Hodgson saw Sarries home.
The result was the perfect response to a disappointing 12-3 defeat to Worcester last week and McCall praised his players' resilience.
"It was very important today that we got a win and I thought we dealt with some set-backs pretty well - we didn't do that last week," McCall said.
"We responded well to their charge-down try and then we responded from what was from our point of view a soft second try as well.
"I thought we came back very well too, we really upped our intensity and physicality in those periods. The team showed a lot of character today."
A dramatic finale saw Gloucester exert some heavy pressure on the Saracens defence but the hosts held firm and McCall praised young Nick Auterac who came off the bench in the dying minutes.
McCall said: "We took Rhys Gill off with three minutes to go who was scrummaging well and we brought on a 19-year-old in Nick Auterac who hasn't got much premiership experience.
"It probably wasn't the kindest thing I've ever done to Nick but our last scrum was amazing - Nick's a really talented kid who has come through our academy and he's got a big future."

Strike team joins federal crackdown on bikiesRania Spooner
Published: October 31 2013 - 3:00AM
- Federal politics: full coverage
Federal authorities have fast-tracked a crackdown on bikie gangs with the launch of a six-man Victorian strike team to bolster national disruption efforts.
Victoria's newest anti-bikie team comes under a $64 million national anti-gangs squad, co-ordinated from a centre within the Australian Crime Commission.
The squad has been created to chase illegal bikie activity across state borders and marks the first major national move against outlaw motorcycle gangs.
The Victorian strike team was made up of five Australian Federal Police officers and one Australian Tax Office officer, federal Justice Minister Michael Keenan announced on Wednesday.
Other local strike forces include one announced in Queensland earlier this month targeting bikie crime on the Gold Coast and another to follow in NSW.
The teams were not due to be rolled out until January but their launches have been brought forward, with the Victorian team operational from Wednesday, Mr Keenan said. Federal authorities were also focusing on preventing gang members coming into Australia, he said.
The national team would work alongside Victoria's existing anti-bikie taskforces, but with access to extra surveillance services and technical support, Victoria Police Chief Commissioner Ken Lay said.
The announcement followed raids in Victoria and the introduction of anti-fortification laws, the first notices under which have been served against a Hells Angels clubhouse.

Designing a Writing-Enhanced Course
Workshop by Dr. Brad Peters
Department of English, Northern Illinois University
Tuesday, May 22, 2012 from 8:30 am to 4:00 pm, Capitol Room, HSC
Faculty Stipend of $250 for Completing the Workshop (Offered by Writing Across the Curriculum)
In this daylong, interactive workshop, participants will focus on a course that they currently teach. Participants will engage in activities that help them decide what kinds of writing activities might best enhance the critical thinking they want their students to do.
The workshop will start at 8:30 am with check-in and refreshments and the workshop will begin at 9:00 am. The schedule will include lunch from 12 to 1 pm and mid-morning and mid-afternoon breaks. Tentative list of topics for the workshop include the following:
- How to motivate students' critical thinking through writing
- How to use writing technologies to the best advantage
- How to design effective writing assignments
- How to give feedback to students that balances content and correctness
- How to manage the paper load efficiently
- How to create rubrics that enable students to grasp what you want them to do
Brad Peters is Professor of English and the Coordinator of the Writing Across the Curriculum program at NIU. He designed and directed the NIU Writing Center. Dr. Peters presents yearly workshops on using writing to think critically and has trained faculty in universities across the country. He teaches advanced writing courses where students get their work ready for conferences and into print. Dr. Peters' research focuses on effective writing strategies and pedagogies.
Participants are asked to prepare written answers to the following questions. Bring six copies to the workshop (and submit one of them to the workshop leader):
- What is the course you want to transform into a writing-enhanced course, and what kinds of writing do you currently include in the course?
- What are the main units or modules in your course?
- What are your main learning objectives (or chief concepts and principles) for the course?
- What thinking skills are especially important in your course—and crucial to your academic discipline?
- What are the most difficult aspects of the course, based on previous students' experience?
- What problems do students typically have with the writing tasks you set?
- What difference do you want your course to make in your students' lives?

Ozzie Guillen wasn't happy with Bryce Harper during Sunday's Marlins-Nationals game, and he let the young rookie know it.
In the top of the fourth inning with the Nats outfielder walking to the plate, the Marlins manager began screaming from his perch in the third-base dugout. He was motioning with a bat in his hands and was clearly upset, directing a few choice words Harper's way.
The feud started when Guillen complained to the umpires after Harper's first at-bat. He felt the pine tar on his bat went too far up, so the Nationals advised their rookie to use a different one the next time up.
Then in the fourth inning, as Harper walked to the plate, he pointed the bat towards the Marlins dugout and cracked a smile, setting Guillen off.
The Nats Enquirer has compiled a play-by-play of the incident using screen shots from the Nationals broadcast.
After the game, CSNWashington's Mark Zuckerman tweeted Guillen's thoughts about the situation:
"I could have said a lot of (stuff) about this kid. I've been praising this kid like everyday," Guillen said. "The last three times they asked me about him, the only thing I said was he's a great player. What he did (Sunday) was unprofessional."
Harper refused to make headlines when asked about it afterwards, telling Zuckerman, "He's a great manager to play for. He's going to battle for you, no matter what. That's a manager you want to play for."
His own manager, Davey Johnson, however, wasn't pleased with how his counterpart handled things, according to the Nats Insider.
"Ozzie had complained that the pine tar was too high up on Harper's bat, so we changed it," Johnson said. "Then he was still chirping about it. It got on the umpire's nerves. It got on my nerves. He was trying to intimidate my player, I guess. That's not going to bother our player. He does what he has to do."
Guillen said he plans on meeting with Johnson prior to the series finale on Monday to discuss the incident.

The past week was the first of the 2014 season in the world of Texas high school football, but there were still several interesting recruiting notes that popped up in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.
This past Monday (Aug. 25), Cedar Hill head coach Joey McGuire reported that 2015 offensive lineman Randy Crystian picked up his second offer from New Mexico. Crystian already had an offer from Navy.
Later that evening, McKinney North 2015 safety Bryce Balous (pictured above) told Scout.com that Kansas State is his leader. He also visited the Wildcats on Saturday night for their blowout win against SFA.
Balous has offers from K-State, Iowa, Nevada, and Arkansas State.
On Tuesday, Rowlett 2015 kicker Andrew Galitz decommitted from Miami and flipped to Baylor, announcing his commitment via Twitter.
Wednesday brought news of a Stanford offer for Sachse 2015 receiver Devin Duvernay, who is a four-star prospect per Scout and one of the state's top junior prospects in his recruiting cycle. Duvernay has an offer list that is approaching 30 schools.
Following Thursday night's 24-22 Garland win against Irving MacArthur, Garland 2015 safety Luther Kirk told Scout that he recently got his first FBS offer from Louisiana-Monroe. Classmate and teammate Donovan Ransom, a defensive tackle, said that he remains solid to Arkansas State, to which he committed in June.
Irving MacArthur 2015 defensive end T.J. King, who committed in July to Louisiana Tech, told Scout that he's now a soft verbal to Louisiana Tech. He added that he has a new offer from New Mexico, plus interest from a couple of Power 5 conference programs.
Also over the weekend following DFW contests, Scout learned that Coppell 2015 offensive lineman Jordan Murray has an offer from North Texas. Murray told Scout that he's 6-foot-10, 335 pounds.
Frisco Lone Star 2015 offensive lineman Charlie Grammel reported recent offers from Tulsa, New Mexico, and Colorado State, while Cedar Hill 2015 receiver D'Aundrey Bradley said he has a new offer from New Mexico.
In the East Texas region, Arp 2015 defensive end Tyrone Hunt committed this past Monday to UTSA, which is the only FBS offer so far for the 6-foot-4, 225-pounder.

Gluten Intolerance (not Celiac) - Real or Imagined?
"A new study in the journal BMC Medicine may shed some light on why. It shows gluten can set off a distinct reaction in the intestines and the immune system, even in people who don't have celiac disease." To view this article: click here.
If you suspect gluten intolerance, then the logical thing to do is cut it out for a few months and see how much better you feel and if your symptoms subside. They suggest testing for Celiac anyway, but to get a positive on Celiac, the procedure is a little more invasive than most people would like.
Good news, I thought, is that people with mere gluten intolerance do not have damage to their intestines or a leaky gut.
I don't think I am gluten-intolerant. I'm more fiber-intolerant. My husband might be allergic to wheat as he gets some congestion after ingesting it, he thinks. Time will tell as I'm mostly cooking and baking low-carb and gluten-free these days.

still don't know for sure if I am gluten intolerant either, and like you I may be more fiber intolerant. Lots of experimenting and testing these days to find out! Thanks for the link!

You sound like me then, Ginny. :) Good to know either way that gluten intolerance does not cause damage to the intestines.

17" wheels clear M3 brakes?
Will my Style 44's clear the M3's front brake setup?
Looking into a front upgrade for my coupe...especially since I'm coming due for front pads and rotors.
some do, some don't
Well then, are Style 44's a do or a don't?
For those that want to know, yes they do clear the calipers with plenty of room.
That big rotor and caliper look good behind those 44's too!
