Amy Wineh- NO! And I'm blind. Good game, sight.
Amy Winehouse posed nude to raise breast cancer awareness. How, exactly, I couldn't even fathom because currently my brain is trying to punch its way out of my ear. I don't know which is worse: this ad or the close up shots of Amy's impetigo'd face. At this point, I'd rather look at secret option #3 otherwise known as a tomahawk entering my retina.
Thanks to Todd for the pic. Remind me to repay you in non-negotiable "I'm burning your goddamn house down while you sleep" dollars.

Cyber Scholar
News & Events
Fulbright scholar Dr. Katalin Parti is spending the academic year at the university, working with Dr. Elizabeth Englander, director of the Massachusetts Aggression Reduction Center (MARC).
A native of Hungary, she graduated from the University of Miskolc, pursued a legal career as a lawyer and prosecutor, and is presently a research fellow at the National Institute of Criminology in Budapest.
"While growing up, I had two goals: I wanted to be a police officer and I wanted to be a writer," she said. "Criminology seemed to be an ideal field because I could work in law enforcement and, simultaneously, I could do research and share my findings through writing. After I graduated from the university, I spent four years as a government prosecutor in the district attorney's office in Budapest and this experience gave me the background to continue to explore this aspect of human behavior."
Initially, Dr. Parti focused on women in prison and the circumstances that brought them there; later, she took a different path and began to research issues involving cybercrime.
What specifically drew her interest was the rise of child pornography on the Internet and associated cases of child abuse. In 2008, she wrote her PhD thesis on the ways the Internet influences how people think about criminology, and how the whole notion of criminology changes because of the opportunities the Internet provides for those engaged in child pornography to establish a world-wide audience.
She came to Bridgewater, she says, to gain experience in a field much related to her research interests, and that is cyberbullying.
"As the Internet continues to evolve, it's not only about sexual predators approaching little children. It's no longer the biggest issue," Dr. Parti said. "Now we see a dramatic increase in communities and in schools and colleges where people are using a wide variety of technological tools to bully other people, usually their peer groups, who are often children and young adults themselves targeting other children and young adults."
In January, she will begin visiting area schools that are working with MARC to conduct interviews with principals and teachers to find out how they are dealing with issues of cyberbullying – the practices they have introduced to combat this, and ask how MARC can better assist them in the effort.
While there are cyberbullying projects underway in Eastern Europe, Dr. Parti came to the United States because "this is where the most important work is being done today and we have a lot to learn. I look forward to returning home next year and sharing there what I've discovered in America."
Back home in Hungary, she will teach and continue her research. "This is a topic of immense urgency for us and it's changing all the time. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to come here at a relatively early stage of my career and acquire the kind of background and experience that I'm exposed to here every day. Every person I've met at Bridgewater has been enormously helpful to me." (Story and photo by David K. Wilson, '71, University News)

Robin's Healthy Take: Chocolate Treats 3 Waysby Robin Miller in Uncategorized, February 11, 2011
I don't need an excuse like Valentine's Day to eat chocolate — I eat it every day (hey, it's good for your heart.) But I definitely use the holiday as an excuse to make sweet treats for the people I love and care about.
I saw a new ad campaign this year that said something like, 'It's not 'I love you, it's I love us.'" What a great message to send! There's no better way to show someone special how you feel than by making candies from scratch. I'm not talking about labor-intensive sweets that require a candy thermometer, patience and little room for error. I mean chocolate treats that are super-simple to make and can be customized for anyone and everyone. Check out my three favorites: truffles, chocolate bark and white chocolate haystacks.
Valentine's Day Chocolates, Three Ways
These recipes are super-simple and guaranteed to please a crowd. The truffles and bark are elegant enough to gift as gifts and the "haystacks" are great for kids (and they love to help make them.)
Dark Chocolate Truffles
Basic Method: Melt 8 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate in the microwave, double boiler or bowl over a saucepan of simmering water; set aside. Beat together 8 ounces light cream cheese and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Mix in melted chocolate and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Shape the mixture into 36 balls; transfer balls to parchment or wax paper; set aside. Melt 12 ounces semi-sweet or milk chocolate; spear chocolate balls with a wooden pick or fork and immerse in melted chocolate. Return to parchment; refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
Variations: After you dip the balls in chocolate, you can roll them in any topping you want — chopped almonds or peanuts, colored sprinkles and cocoa powder make great choices.
White Chocolate Bark with Pretzels and Almonds
Basic Method: Melt 18 ounces white chocolate in the microwave, double boiler or bowl over a saucepan of simmering water; fold in 3 cups broken pretzel pieces and 2 cups slivered or coarsely chopped almonds; pour mixture onto parchment or wax paper; spread out to 1/2-inch thickness; cool until hard (refrigerate to speed cooling if desired). Break into pieces.
Variations: The bark can be made countless ways — I adore pretzels and almonds, but you can use a variety of nuts and leave the pretzels out, or leave the nuts out and just use pretzels! I also like tons of "stuff" in my bark, so if you like less, use 2 cups of pretzels and 1 cup of almonds.
Milk Chocolate and Peanut Butter Haystacks:
Basic Method: Melt 6 ounces milk chocolate in the microwave, double boiler or bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Remove from heat, stir in 1/4 cup peanut butter. Fold in 1 cup chocolate puffed rice cereal and 1 cup chow mein noodles. Drop 18 mounds of mixture onto parchment or wax paper; chill until firm.
Variations: I make these with milk chocolate, but you can also make them with semi-sweet chocolate.

MATT Groves has told the Terras to wise up ahead of this Saturday's home clash with high-flying Leamington.
The Terras have been a match for most teams in the Evo-Stik Southern Premier Division so far this season but according to their player-assistant-manager, they need to sharpen up mentally if they are to realise their potential.
Groves told Echosport: "At the moment, just when we think we have cracked it, we then go out and let ourselves down a little bit. It's frustrating because we know we are not that far away.
"Everyone is so even in this league it tends to come down to one decision or one moment which ends up turning the game.
"We need to be making those right decisions at least eight or nine times out of 10 but at the moment it is only five or six.
"We still have a lot of young players that are still learning and hopefully that can continue and we can get stronger as the season goes on."
Recent victories over Banbury, Hitchin and St Albans have been overshadowed by disappointing defeats against Stourbridge and Cambridge City and Groves believes that is down to concentration.
He added: "We have got more than enough ability but we have got to wise up mentally.
"We need to concentrate more and have that determination to stop the other side from scoring.
"At times this season we have tended to lose focus just after we have scored, but that is when we need to be at our most ruthless and make sure we dig in and not give anything away."
Leamington currently sit second in the table, just three points off the top with four games in hand on current leaders Hemel Hempstead Town.

WHEN A BRISK WIND BEGAN whipping up whitecaps on Great Peconic Bay last autumn, North Fork Bob was ready to go. Bob is an adult male osprey that summers on this shallow estuary near the tip of New York's Long Island. As the bird was about to take off on his annual migration to the Tropics, Rob Bierregaard, an osprey researcher and professor at the University of North Carolina–Charlotte, was preparing to track him for a second season.
The previous year, Bierregaard, who names all his study ospreys, had briefly captured Bob by tucking an enticing sea bass under a carpet of fishing-line slipknots stretched across a nest. After carefully extracting the bird's toes, Bierregaard weighed and banded him, then strapped a tiny pack on his back. Attached was a solar-powered satellite transmitter with a miniature GPS unit that would record Bob's hourly location, altitude, speed and direction for the next three years. "It's accurate down to tens of meters," says Bierregaard, providing a level of detail and accuracy once thought impossible. And with the help of Google Earth, the scientist also can get a bird's-eye view of Bob's stopover and wintering habitats.
When Bob lifted off on the morning of October 3, he faced a gauntlet of potential hurricanes, hostile shooters and other dangers. "It's a nerve-wracking time of year," Bierregaard says. "We lose the most birds on the southbound migration." Bob began his perilous journey by island-hopping down the Atlantic coast. He flew the length of the Florida Keys and crossed to Cuba, where he flirted with catastrophe by hanging out for a week just upstream from a fish farm. Ospreys are often shot at these facilities once they leave the United States, says Bierregaard, but Bob dodged the bullet, "figuratively if not literally." From there, it was on to Haiti, then a 25-hour nonstop flight over the Caribbean to landfall in Colombia. By late November, Bob had reached the exact spot where he had wintered the previous year: along a shallow river in the highlands of southern Venezuela.
The travels of North Fork Bob and other ospreys fitted with Bierregaard's transmitters are not only unlocking the secrets of their migrations, they also are revealing information on their winter behavior. For one thing, Bierregaard has found that adults don't stray very far once they arrive at their southern home. "Bob's barely moved the entire winter, not more than a mile and a half," Bierregaard says. "He's been a total couch potato."
The sophisticated transmitters, which Bierregaard and his colleagues have placed on 34 ospreys in Delaware, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island and South Carolina, also allow researchers to study the foraging ecology of ospreys on their breeding grounds. Biologists can discover exactly where the birds fish and where the threats to ospreys—and their ecosystems—might lie. "They are a sentinel species," Bierregaard says, "the canary in the coal mine, so to speak." If anything goes amiss in the waters where these top predators dive for flounder, menhaden and other fish, it will show up in the adults, their eggs or their young.
This happened, famously, about a half century ago. By the 1960s, the pesticide DDT—first used in the late 1940s—had accumulated in the tissues of ospreys and other birds. As a result, females laid eggs with shells much thinner than normal. In extreme cases, eggs broke under the weight of incubating adults. Hatching success even in eggs that did not break was very low.
Between New York and Boston, where the salt marshes were sprayed with DDT for mosquito control, ospreys nearly disappeared. "The coastal birds were essentially mainlining DDT," says Alan Poole, a senior research associate at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and author of the book Ospreys: A Natural and Unnatural History. "They couldn't reproduce for many years." Elsewhere in the country, says Poole, osprey numbers also sharply declined, but not as much as in New England.
In 1972, DDT was banned in the United States, and ospreys gradually began to recover. Today, although scientists still monitor them for traces of mercury or other industrial pollutants, the birds are back in a big way. A rough 2001 estimate by Bierregaard put the population in the Lower 48 at just below 20,000 pairs.
"There may be more ospreys nesting in North America now than ever before," says Charles Henny, a research zoologist emeritus with the U.S. Geological Survey in Corvallis, Oregon, who has studied the species for 40 years. "It's really a success story." Ospreys succeeded in part because they have readily forsaken trees to build their 250-pound nests on power poles, cell phone towers, channel markers and other human-made structures. And unlike most raptors, ospreys are tolerant of people, even raising their young next to busy highways or marinas.
Today large concentrations of breeding ospreys are found in the Pacific Northwest, the Great Lakes, New England, the Chesapeake Bay region and elsewhere along the Atlantic coast as far south as Florida. They also nest in sizable numbers in reservoirs scattered across western states. Ospreys nest in all but four of the Lower 48 states. In good years, when fish are abundant, adults usually fledge one or two offspring.
Where they hatched determines where these immature birds fly south on their first fall migration. Henny and other researchers have learned that ospreys from western states—both young and adults—head to Mexico or Central America. Midwestern birds winter from Mexico to Bolivia. Virtually all of the eastern population migrates to the Caribbean or South America. And Bierregaard has discovered that juveniles, which travel alone and not with their parents, take very different routes to get there.
"Adults hug the coast and stay over land as much as possible," he says. Inexperienced birds, on the other hand, sometimes launch themselves out over the Atlantic on epic journeys. For example, Moffett, an immature male, flew nonstop for 66 hours after leaving Martha's Vineyard. He crossed more than 1,500 miles of ocean before finally landing in eastern Cuba.
Bierregaard also has learned that some young ospreys have minds of their own. Not long after fledging, a female named Meadow left Massachusetts and flew to Lake Superior. But once snow began to cover the ground, she decided it was time to hit the road. "Meadow corrected for the fact that she was 800 miles to the west," says Bierregaard, and unerringly set off for South America. She made it as far as the Dominican Republic and settled down for the winter. Not long after, she was shot at a farm pond. Buck, a juvenile male, flew straight to Colombia on his first migration. But on his way back to his natal home of South Carolina, he took a three-month detour through New England and the mid-Atlantic states. It took him almost four months and about 9,000 miles to find his old neighborhood.
Ospreys do not breed until their third or fourth year and stay in their tropical homes for their first two winters. "We used to think they needed the extra time to find a good territory," Bierregaard says, "but the birds seem to settle down fairly quickly." He suggests staying south may be an adaptation that allows them to avoid one migration cycle, a treacherous time for both adults and young.
Adults have about an 80 percent chance of surviving these travels, in large part because they know the drill. When North Fork Bob quit Venezuela this past March, he took the easy way, straight through the islands and up the coast to New York. "He flew so little this winter," jokes Bierregaard, "we wondered whether he would be in good enough shape to make it back." But his time as a "couch potato" didn't bother Bob. He covered the 3,000 miles in 17 days, right back to Long Island and another summer in the sun.

William Willis Smithwick was born in Georgia, November 1823 - 24, to Edmond Smithwick and Piety Jackson Skinner Willis.
He married Mary James, May 5, 1848 in Campbell County, Georgia. Mary James bore him six children before he joined the Confederacy in Alabama.
William was 39 when he enlisted, older than most soldiers at that time, so his commander detailed him as a wagoner.
For a short time William was listed as a deserter but later records indicated that he returned to service in 1864. It is believed that he may have returned home to bury Mary (she died bet 1862/63) and settle his children with their Grandmother Piety.
In 1865 Wm married Mary Albright and she bore him six more children. They relocated to Bellefonte, Boone County Arkansas before 1880. Between 1880 & 1900 the family moved to Italy, Ellis County, Texas, where two older sons Steven and William Dawson were living.
It is believed that Mary Albright and four of their children died about the same time (between 1900 - 1905, in Italy, and are buried there. William Willis death or his burial is not known.

Quote:it is not up to us to go about trying to convince people we know the true and only path!*bows respectfully*
Quote:I got home from TKD class today and within ten minuetes I recieved a call from the dojo that my little brothers friends and parents wish to attend. They were very angry with me they kept swithing back and forth on the phone and soon I was speeking to two head instructors at once saying,"You have no right to call us a mcdojo, what ever that is now you are trying to steal our students and telling them that what we teach is no good (they also used the F word more then once). They are wnting me and my head instructor to come in and show them how we do things. I feel that I may have accidentally got into some legal issues aswell. What should I do?!
Quote:Don't do anything ! They are trying to intimidate you. Why are they calling you and not your instructor ? If they are not a "McDojo" why would they care how you do things ? Just ignore them. If there was a legal issue to be dealt with then they would be forced to have to prove that they are truly certified from a recognized org (ITF,WTF, GTF etc. etc.). If they call your home again give the phone to your parents. If they want to talk to your instructor, tell them they should call him (you should make your instructor aware of the situation as so he's not blindsided with a call IF it comes). Don't worry about being accused of trying to steal their students, it's probably how they got most of theirs. Oh one more thing, maybe you should have your parents inform your brothers friends parents that these so called "Professional" instructors called you and proceeded to cuss you out for voicing your opinion and exposing them. Do they want their kids influenced by such people ? Don't hide this from them,let them know.

CAMPO DEI FRARI, Italy ( TheStreet) -- Here in a cozy Venetian square, on a crystal clear Sunday morning, I'm doing as I always do, creating stories using the state-of-the-art mobile Web. But today I'm doing something unique. I am accessing that Web using a new generation of blissfully low-cost world roaming data and phone options. "It's not complex to offer steep discounts on global phone services once you take advantage of the efficiencies of modern world cell networks," Pascal de Hesselle, vice president for marketing at Truphone Americas, explained to me on the phone a week or so back.
De Hesselle's Truphone is but one of several world-oriented mobile phone operations that are taking advantage of emerging low-cost global digital cell systems, newly privatized in-country telephone laws and cheap smart mobile devices to offer dramatically frugal global communications products in the lucrative $45.1 billion world mobile roaming market, according to U.K.-based research firm Visiongain. And if my week of doing my work with Truphone -- and a similar product from a company called Telestial -- is any indication, the age of high priced global phone roaming from Verizon ( VZ), AT&T ( T), Sprint ( S) and T-Mobile is officially over. The global mobile virtual network operator
Truphone pulls off its low-cost global phone and data trick not by investing in forests of cell towers or fleets of phone repair trucks. Rather, it behaves like a so-called mobile virtual network operator. In the U.S., that's Boost Mobile or Virgin Mobile. Truphone gathers together long-term carrier agreements with in-country cell operators, say Europe's Vodafone ( VOD) or Telecom Italia Mobile ( TI). Then it offers international travelers not one, but two (!) cellphone numbers, in two different countries, baked into the same phone bought in their home country. My test BlackBerry ( RIMM) Bold, for example, had a U.S. number and a U.K. number. And this two-number mobile identity opens a world of cost-saving possibilities in world telephony.
Truphone figures out automatically which identity is cheaper for a given call and passes that savings on to me. Actual savings vary -- we are talking about global cell and data now, and estimated costs are just that: estimates -- but in general I felt that Truphone's claimed rates of roughly half traditional American operator provided global roaming costs were fair.

Environmentally Preferable Purchasing Policy Adopted
Sept. 22, 2009
News Highlights
More Information
Fairfax County is taking a green approach to purchasing goods and services, known as Environmentally Preferable Purchasing. County Executive Anthony H. Griffin has signed a memorandum directing county departments to consider the environmental impacts of the goods and services they purchase. The policy will guide staff in purchasing items with less impact on the environment.
"We look forward to assisting departments in finding appropriate goods and services that truly benefit the environment," explains Cathy Muse, director of the Department of Purchasing and Supply Management. (DPSM) "We want to provide information and resources to county employees to help them purchase quality products and services that reduce or eliminate unnecessary environmental impacts."
The policy provides for:
- Access to Web-based tools that allow purchasers to find appropriate green goods and services.
- Support for the purchase of items with recycled content and those with "take-back programs."
- Contract purchasing specifications that take into account environmental considerations.
The policy also promotes waste reduction through the DPSM's new online auction program to sell surplus items no longer used by the county. This program generates revenue while reducing waste as items will be reused by new owners, rather than sent for disposal.
This policy was initiated by the Fairfax DPSM and an interagency team including:
- Fairfax County Public Schools.
- Department of Public Works and Environmental Services.
- Department of Housing and Community Development.
- Fairfax County Park Authority.
The Department of Purchasing and Supply Management will be the lead agency assisting purchasing decision makers to select products that offer the best value with the least environmental impact.
For more information about the policy or the online auction program, contact Patti Innocenti at 703-324-2261 or Chris McGough at 703-324-3288, TTY 800-828-1140, in the Department of Purchasing and Supply Management.

Watching a documentary about video games takes a special kind of person with a special kind of temperament. I am not that person, sadly.
First off, I admit that the 10-year-old Scott inside of my brain did immediately succumb to the overdose of nostalgia in the preface of this �documentary�: a montage of snippets from classic home and arcade video games like Pac Man, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders, Tetris and others. All great time wasters. Yes, I was a boy who played these games and like most boys, I grew out of them. Better things to do with my time, I guess.
As an adult, I still have better things to do with my time than play video games or even watch this kind of pap.
Right after that opening montage, at the mere one-minute mark, Sean Astin starts off his narration, espousing how �distinctly human� they are because they were borne out of innovation, necessity and curiosity.
And that�s how I knew immediately that this was a movie expertly designed to be a grand birthday kiss about the wonder and splendor of all things video game. Further proof of this came right after Astin�s monologue, when Don�t Stop Me Now, a rockin� Queen song, starts playing to another glittering, Vegas-like montage of scenes from some of the most popular games ever. Surely, anyone who has played a video game within the last 30 years must, at some point during all of this nonsense, have an overwhelming desire to plug a game cartridge in and fritter away another hot summer afternoon in front of the boob tube till his or her thumbs were sore.
And that�s when Wil Wheaton, he of Star Trek Whatever, chimes in. �I love video games,� he begins with a droning voice, blithely confessing to the converted, �because I have the same experience that I have when I watch a movie that I love or read a book that captures my imagination, but I am an active participant instead of a passive observer.�
Oh, so video games actually qualify as intelligence boosters? That will certainly dishearten all of those 12-year-olds sitting on the side of their schools pushing buttons on their iPods or handheld Nintendo DS consoles instead of playing soccer or shooting a few hoops during their lunch breaks.
We are led down a rabbit hole of mendacity about how video games are good, how they have a unique and fundamental role in society (that will never dissolve, only change form), and how we�re only now beginning to understand and explore how they can improve human existence.
Pardon me for being a naysayer, but bah humbug! What a colossal load of tripe! One commentator even remarks how video games will eventually become so intrinsic to our daily lives that we won�t even notice them.
Here I am, a middle-aged fellow without a single game in my house. Imagine my dismay. You must wonder how I manage to survive?
This is the kind of patently propagandistic documentary that even zombified video game die-hards will surely see through, or should. It�s like watching an educational video in junior high about how doughnuts are made. The comparison is apt: digest one and it turns your midsection soft. The other simply turns your mind to dough.
Wil Wheaton would probably know this too, although he doesn�t have a doctorate in anything ... but did play a space traveler on TV once!
Sure, we get the cursory glimpse through history � all thanks to video game historians, no less. There�s the great debate over who is the Grandfather of Video Games � is it Nolan Bushnell or Ralph Baer or Shigeru Miyamoto? Or the team at MIT back in the day? Farther back even? Who knows?
We learn how games get developed and see the whole world of gaming culture, if it could be called such a thing. What does it even mean to be a gamer, and perhaps more importantly, what kind of person would care to put that on their r�sum�?
This all comes courtesy of some gaming industry insiders, gaming culture writers and the standard retinue of celebrities including Wheaton, producer Zach Braff, Donald Faison, Max Landis and other actors. We are only left to wonder where were all of the academics on the day that filmmaker Jeremy Snead came calling for their all-too-important critical opinion. Perhaps wakeboarding or playing extreme Frisbee?
I gotta tell you that the only thing that feels more like a waste of time than actually playing video games is watching 100 minutes of this gobbledygook documentary about them but it�s not really my bag anyway. I can't say much for the content but the graphics were pretty good though.
In short, this movie is really only for people who play video games more than they want to talk to their children or parents, or spend an afternoon in the garden. Everybody else, carry on.

THE NEW hospital development at Southmead is boosting the local economy with an increasing number of jobs and contracts awarded to companies in the greater Bristol area.
Figures have revealed that 83 per cent of the workforce involved in the construction of the new £430 million hospital live within 30 miles of the site.
And 60 per cent of materials used to build the super hospital are from South Gloucestershire and Bristol.
Since the new development started in 2010, 55 apprentices have been hired to work on the development, which is due to open in 2014.
North Bristol NHS Trust and support services and company Carillion, which is building the new hospital, had pledged from the outset to keep the project in the hands of local communities and award contracts to regional firms.
Tricia Down, deputy director of projects at North Bristol NHS Trust, said: "We have worked closely with Carillion to ensure the new hospital promotes and supports our local economy.
"It is important to us that the new hospital is truly a facility for the communities and people of Bristol and South Gloucestershire not only when it opens in 2014 but during its construction.
"This building will mark the beginning of a new era in healthcare and it is fantastic to think that in years to come local people can say they helped to build the new Southmead Hospital."
The new hospital reaches its two-year construction milestone in August.
The state-of the art complex, which will be fitted the latest green technology and was designed with patients need for privacy in mind, will be the first of its kind in the country when it IIS inaugurated.
Keith Hutton, project manager for Carillion, said: "We are proud to be leading this historic construction and providing local people with jobs and local firms with contracts, particularly during a difficult period for the construction industries.
"We have worked hard to source the best materials, labour and expertise and the fact that many of them are from within 30 miles of the site underlines the region's importance in leading the way in new and sustainable industries."

The popular former Bradley Primary School and Colne Primet High School student, nicknamed 'Rhino', served in the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment from 2010 to 2013.
Stationed at Weeton Barracks, near Blackpool, he served as a Kingsman in Cyprus before leaving last year to go travelling in Asia and Australia with his girlfriend Sami Allott, from Burnley.
Mr Thompson, who was working as a labourer on a farm, died when he was struck by a truck near the town of Bungador around 11am on February 4.

Did you know?
When Xhosa men smoke together, they pass one pipe around – but use their own mouthpieces.
While driving through Pondoland, that wonderfully wild northern tip of the Eastern Cape, you might well encounter what looks like an intense pipe-smoking convention.
There are few places are on Earth where the ritual of pipe smoking is taken more seriously.
You'll see old men walking alongside their beasts, puffing away, in deep conversation with themselves and the universe at large. You'll see old grannies sitting in the sun outside their huts, looking out to sea through a billow of blue tobacco smoke, drawn from wooden Xhosa pipes.
Passing through the bustling settlements of places like Dutywa, you'll find groups of men huddled together in the marketplace, leaning on their fighting sticks, passing a pipe around.
And the variety of Xhosa pipes makes them perfect décor items to take home with you.
There's the so-called Khoi Khoi pipe, with its green stone bowl and its ox horn, which, when filled with water, acts like a smoke filter. There's also the Xhosa 'three-wife pipe'; the common hardwood Inqawe pipe; and the calabash-shaped 'old woman's pipe'.
Most of the pipes are gloriously adorned with traditional Xhosa beadwork.
You'll notice mothers all using long-stemmed pipes.
The long stem has practical applications: less of the tobacco smoke is inhaled, and it's easier to keep smoke away from suckling children. The added length of the stem also ensures that ash does not fall onto their babies.
Young Xhosa girls are forbidden from smoking – this ritual is the preserve of a mother or an older woman. Both men and women carry their pipe, tobacco and pipe tools around in bags that are richly adorned with beads.
So important is the habit of pipe smoking in Xhosa culture that when somebody in the community dies, that person is said to have 'laid down his pipe'.

Last night we took some of the leftover spatchcock chicken from Sunday and made some enchiladas.
Rolled up some corn tortillas with the chicken, onions and Monterrey Jack cheese
Topped with a sauce and more cheese and then tossed it on the Egg indirect at 375F
30 minutes later and it was done...sort of. I like my cheese a bit more browned, so we popped it under the broiler for a few minutes, then topped it with some green onions.
Ate it with a simple salad and some Briana's Chipotle Cheddar salad dressing (good stuff, nice bit of heat)
Pretty darn tasty meal and a great way to use leftover chicken, just wish I had left the seeds and veins in the jalapenos that I chopped up for the sauce. So good I went back for one more.

Creative Triscuit Appetizer Ideas
Crackers are a classic way to serve elegant party appetizers to guests, but there are some, we've found, that are just better than others. While popular butter crackers may be delicious with a slice of cheese, it's tough pairing them with any other ingredients. They're also pretty high in calories for such a small bite!
Crackers are a classic way to serve elegant party appetizers to guests, but there are some, we've found, that are just better than others. While popular butter crackers may be delicious with a slice of cheese, it's tough pairing them with any other ingredients. They're also pretty high in calories for such a small bite!
Enter Triscuit. They've got a great crunch, like any good cracker should have. They're tasty, without being too flavorful that they overpower other ingredients or downright prevent you from using whatever is in your pantry. Plus, they're sturdy, which means you have a lot more options when it comes to toppings.
For a party, I put together a few Triscuit appetizers that were a far cry from the typical or expected slice of cheese bite people are so used to. I tried to get as creative and varied with each approach all while using what I already had stocked in my cupboards (and fridge) from the holiday celebrations.
I have to admit, I was surprised when all my guests declared they loved every. single. one. Because I did get a little inventive with a few. Guess that just proves Triscuits are the perfect appetizer ingredient for any palate!
Tropical Triscuit
Our first Triscuit appetizer takes a tropical turn. When I thought about the least likely flavor I'd expect to find paired with the crunchy, wheaty cracker, pineapple jumped to mind. I'm weird, I know, but thank me because this sweet combo of pineapple, red onion, carrot and cilantro works incredibly well with the warmer, savory cracker. Just chop it all up, toss together and top your Triscuits!
The Meat Lover's Triscuit
We've reinvented our favorite skinny buffalo chicken recipe yet again and topped our Triscuits with it for an appetizer meat-lovers will really appreciate. The spicy chicken gets a creamy and savory flavor added to it with the sprinkled blue cheese and a freshness thanks to the chive. And the sturdy Triscuit is the ideal base for such a hearty bite.
Dieter's Delight
This low-cal Triscuit is topped with Greek yogurt, sliced cucumber, sliced cherry tomatoes and feta cheese crumbles. It was the impressive winner at our party for best tasting. Everyone loved it and had no idea how healthy it actually was!
Pizza, Pizza Triscuit
On the opposite end of the spectrum, everyone still loved this appetizer, but new before they bit into it that it was no diet-friendly choice. We spread tomato sauce on the garlic flavored Triscuit crackers, sprinkled with a mozzarella and parmesan combo, then topped that with sliced black olives and toasted in the oven. Delicious! And you can customize your topping to fit your preference.
Dessert Triscuit
OK, this technically isn't an appetizer at just any party, but imagine a desserts-only soiree? Any excuse you can make to eat this sweeter bite, do so. I sandwiched some Nutella and sliced banana between two classic Triscuits and I was pleasantly surprised with how yummy it was!

A man has pleaded guilty to killing his wife after stabbing her dozens of times at their home - just days after police released him on bail for assaulting her.
Bulent Sessacar was originally charged with the murder of Rebecca Sessacar, 25, at their home in Duppas Hill Terrace, Croydon.
But Mr Sessacar, who has psychological problems, this morning gave a plea of guilty for manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
Mrs Sessacar, a trainee teaching assistant who also worked at Asda in Beddington, was stabbed to death on December 20, 2012.
She was stabbed dozens of times. The Old Bailey heard today she had 58 wounds.
Two days before the killing Sessacar, then aged 28, had been held by police on suspicion of assaulting her.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission was orders has been looking at the circumstances around Mrs Sessacar's death.
It has been looking at the MPS' response, actions and decisions relating to police contact with the family.
The IPCC have also looking at the response of the MPS in relation to calls made by neighbours on December 20 and any previous contact with the family.
Speaking at the time of the killing Sandra Ward, the mother of Rebecca Sessacar, said her daughter always looked on the bright side of life.
She said: "Rebecca was a dedicated wife and mother. She was always happy and outgoing. She was a lively girl. She would never like to hear people grumble."

Flunixin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) approved for use in cattle for control of inflammation in endotoxemia and for the control of fever associated with mastitis, bovine respiratory disease, and endotoxemia. It is used on dairy farms, including Miner Institute, under the supervision of a veterinarian, write Heather Dann and Anna Pape in the January 2013 issue of the William H. Miner Agricultural Research Institute Farm Report.
Currently, flunixin is labeled for intravenous (IV) administration at a dose of 2.2 mg/kg every 24 hours or 1.1 mg/kg every 12 hours. With this route of administration, cattle can't be slaughtered for 4 days following the last injection and the milk can't be sold for 36 hours. Cows treated with flunixin often feel better and return to eating and drinking sooner so this has led some producers to misuse flunixin on a range of sick cows with minimal veterinary supervision and increase the risk of residue in meat and milk.
The USDA Food Safety Inspection Service reported an increase in the number of residue violations in culled dairy cows from 2005 to 2010 with flunixin the second most common residue violation. Penicillin was #1. The high number of flunixin residues identified in culled dairy cows is likely related to the administration of the drug by unapproved routes.

There are few things tech lovers enjoy more than a shiny new gadget or computer: the latest iPad or Nexus 7 tablet, a great new smartphone, a featherlight ultrabook. But once you've bought that great new gear, what do you do with the old stuff?
The worst thing you can do is to simply throw it in the trash. Electronic equipment is often filled with heavy metals and hazardous chemicals, posing serious environmental and health hazards.
[ Also on InfoWorld: How to clear your data off a device. | Understand how to both manage and benefit from the consumerization of IT with InfoWorld's "Consumerization Digital Spotlight" PDF special report. | Subscribe to InfoWorld's Consumerization of IT newsletter today, then join our #CoIT discussion group at LinkedIn. ]
Not only is tossing it away with the rest of your garbage dangerous, but depending on where you live, it may be illegal as well. As of this writing, 25 states have passed laws governing the disposal of electronic waste (or e-waste).
What should you do? Don't fret. Getting rid of old electronics in an environmentally friendly way is easier than you think. In fact, it may even be good for your pocketbook, because you may be able to get some ready cash for your electronics trash.
We've written before about how to recycle your tech gear, but things change fast when it comes to ridding yourself of unwanted electronics. To begin with, you might want to get basic information. A good source is the Electronics TakeBack Coalition, which offers recycling information as well as places where you can recycle. And then check out the following resources. They can help you responsibly get rid of old electronics, and along the way possibly get some cash or donate to a good cause.
Check your local community
One of the easiest ways to recycle your electronics is also the closest to you -- in your local community. Many municipal governments run recycling programs in order to keep toxics out of landfills. Some municipalities require you to pay a fee and/or prepare the devices in a particular way (for example, place them in a specific type of bin or bag); others let you just put out the device along with the trash. Typically, the recycling programs are run by your town or city's Department of Public Works or similar department.
For example, where I live in Cambridge, Mass., there are several ways to recycle electronics. Cell phones, batteries and various electronic devices can be brought to the city's recycling center, and computers and monitors can be left out with the trash, where they will be picked up for recycling. Screens larger than 20 inches left out with the trash require the purchase of a $25 sticker; computers and smaller monitors are free.
It's a good idea to check with your state's environmental protection website to see what the laws are governing the disposal of e-waste. Many state governments are notorious for doing a poor job of providing much help online, though, so you can check the National Center for Electronics Recycling for a state-by-state guide to recycling laws and information. The United States Department of Environmental Protection has a similar page as well that is worth checking out. The EPA also has a page that helps in finding local electronics recyclers. And a website run by 1-800-recycling.com also offers state-by-state information for finding recyclers -- not just of electronics, but almost anything.
There may also be private recyclers near where you live which will accept or even pay for electronics to recycle. One problem with that, though, is that it's difficult for you to know whether they will recycle the electronics responsibly. A good place to find one is through e-Stewards, which sets high standards for electronics recyclers and certifies those that meet those standards.
Before you choose a local recycler, ask questions to see whether it meets appropriate standards, such as ensuring that all personal data is destroyed and following best management practices. The Telecommunications Industry Association has a list of questions to ask. You won't be able to check whether the answers are accurate, of course, but it should give you some idea of the company's practices.
If you're looking to recycle batteries and cell phones, call2recycle is a good bet. Head to its search page to find local places that recycle, such as electronics retailers, wireless stores, departments of public works and hardware stores.
Recycling through retailers
An excellent place to recycle is at electronics retailers. Many have comprehensive recycling programs (often dictated by state law) that let you bring your electronics to their retail locations. For the most part, the stores will accept products whether or not they were purchased there, and will recycle them for free. However, it's always a good idea to check a retailer's policy online before you go.
Best Buy, for example, accepts computers, printers, peripherals, TVs, DVD players, computer monitors, audio and video cables, cell phones and more. In some instances, you'll be able to trade in old electronics for a Best Buy gift card.
Staples also will accept electronics to recycle. Depending on what you're recycling, you may be able to trade it in for a Staples gift card.
At Office Depot, you can buy an electronics-recycling box ($5, $10 or $15, depending on its size), fill it with electronics, and bring it to the store.
Radio Shack has an electronics trade-in program that you can use either online or in-store. If the device that you want to trade in has no value, Radio Shack will still accept it and recycle it.
Recycling through manufacturers
You can also recycle old electronics through manufacturers. Dell, for example, has several electronics recycling programs. A good bet is Dell Reconnect, which lets you take your electronics -- any kind, not just Dell's -- to certain local Goodwill stores to be either refurbished and sold, or else recycled. You can also recycle any Dell product for free and have it picked up where you live or work. You print out a shipping label, package up the product, and FedEx will pick it up, or you can bring it to a FedEx Center. In addition, if you buy a new Dell computer, Dell will take back your old PC and monitor for free, no matter the brand.
Apple will recycle computers and displays from any manufacturer, not just from Apple. Call 877-712-2405 to get a free prepaid shipping label. Pack up the equipment and it will be picked up and recycled. Apple will also give you an Apple gift card for turning in some Apple equipment and even some PCs. In addition, if you want to recycle a non-Apple display or computer, Apple contracts with WeRecycle to do it. Call the same number as for recycling Apple products.
HP has partnered with Staples and FedEx to recycle old electronics. You can drop off HP equipment at a FedEx office to be recycled for free, but you'll first have to print out a free voucher. HP also has various programs for trading in electronics or returning them for cash.
Sony has a program in which you can bring your Sony product to a nearby recycler. No mail-in options are available.
Toshiba offers several ways to recycle electronics, including a mail-in program for any Toshiba laptop or monitor.
Other manufacturers that have recycling programs include: Acer, Asus, Gateway, Lenovo, and Samsung.
If you want to recycle your mobile phone, most major vendors and carriers offer recycling programs, including: AT&T, LG, Motorola, Nokia, Samsung, and Verizon Wireless.
The one exception to this laudable trend may be T-Mobile, which deserves criticism for what is either a bait-and-switch for people interested in recycling phones -- or simply an inability to keep its site current. T-Mobile has a page on its site that highlights its overall "greenness" and appears to link to ways to recycle your phone, to offer advice on how to go green, and to learn about T-Mobile's work to provide after-school activities for children in a program called Huddle Up.
However, when I clicked the link that says it will provide information about how to recycle your phone, I was sent to a page that tries to enlist support to get better T-Mobile wireless coverage in local communities. When I clicked the link to learn more about going green, I got an error page. And when I clicked the Huddle Up link, I was sent to a page dated January 2010 that described the T-Mobile Invitational National High School Basketball Tournament.
T-Mobile does one thing right: It says you can bring a T-Mobile phone to a T-Mobile store to be recycled.
Donate your electronics to a good cause
Re-use is even better than recycling. And there's no better way to make sure that your electronics will be re-used is to donate them to a non-profit organization.
The Cristina Foundation provides an easy way to do that. The foundation helps connect people who want to donate technology with non-profits, schools or public agency organizations that can use it. Head to its non-profit locator, type in your ZIP code, and you'll get a list of non-profits near you. Included are the equipment they accept, along with details about the non-profit itself. Choose a group, and you'll be able to start the donation process online.
Another worthy group, the World Computer Exchange, accepts working computers, monitors, hard drives, cell phones, printers, network equipment and more.
Sell your stuff
There's a chance that your electronics can make you a bit of cash (beyond the usual suspects of Craigslist and eBay). Typically, when you go to sites that purchase old gadgets, you fill out a form describing what you want to sell and the shape it's in. You then get an offer. If you like the offer, you ship the device to the site and they inspect it to make sure it matches what you described. And then -- you get money for it.
To find out what these sites will accept, I tried to sell them a flawless Wi-Fi iPad 2 with 16GB of memory, and a flawless Motorola Droid X2.
This site buys a variety of electronics, but it's a bit confusing to use, because it's not clear what devices it will buy. The items it lists include Apple laptops, GPS devices, e-readers, Apple displays, iPods, Apple accessories, digital cameras, wireless cards, PDAs (remember them?) and iPhones. In fact, though, when you explore the site, you'll find that it buys more than that. So your best bet is to type what you want to sell in the search box and see if BuyMyTronics.com will buy it. It offered $250 for the iPad 2 and $63 for the Droid X2.
Consumer Electronics Recycling
You can sell a limited number of smartphones, cell phones, iPods and PDAs here -- it buys only Apple, Palm and RIM equipment, and not every model. If the site doesn't buy your device, you can donate it instead, but you'll have to pay for shipping.
Recycle through this site and you get a gift card from Sam's Club or Nex Navy Exchange, or a prepaid Visa card. Select which you want, choose your device, answer a few simple questions about its state, and you'll be told how much you can get for it. For the iPad, it offered $209, and for the Droid X2, it offered $43.
This site specializes in buying Apple gear, although you can also sell a variety of mobile phones from other manufacturers, including BlackBerry, HTC, Motorola, Samsung, Nokia and others. Select the product you want to sell and its condition, and the site makes an offer. Payment is via an Amazon gift card, a check or PayPal. For the iPad 2, I got an offer of $230, and the Droid X2 got an offer of $63.
This site works like most of the others -- tell it what you want to sell, describe the condition it's in, get an offer, send it in. It offered $245 for the iPad 2 -- more than Gazelle but less than NextWorth -- but would not buy the Droid X2. You can get paid via PayPal or by check.
At this site, you sell your electronics and receive the money as a gift card for Target or J&R. The prices are comparable to what Gazelle offers -- for example, an iPad 2 for $252.15 and $61 for a Droid X2. The site asks more questions about what you're selling (for example, if your iPad has been engraved, the price drops by $40) than some of the competitors.
uSell will buy mobile phones, cameras, MP3 players, tablets, game consoles and e-readers. It works differently than the other buying sites -- rather than buying the electronics from you, it acts as a broker. Tell the site what you want to sell, and it searches through a network of electronics buyers and shows you the top five offers. Shipping is free. The method of payment will vary according to the buyer, with most typically offering to pay using PayPal or check. The top buyer for the iPad 2 offered $251.90, with one offer as low as $150. As for the Droid X2, the top offer was $60.50, with one offer as low as $35.
Recycle or give it away online
If your device is too old to sell or even donate, and it's not convenient to carry it to a recycler yourself, there are online services that can help.

I just downloaded the latest version of Fpse on my Asus Transformer Prime (with ICS), and I tried some games, that all worked.
But I have another kind of issue: when I try to run it with the OpenGl plugin (directly downloaded from the app), I cannot use the "Anti-Aliasing" option, nor the "32bits filtering" one. If I check them and run a game, they uncheck themselves automaticaly. So, using the OpenGl plugin, games are very pixelated.
If I try the software plugin, I can apply the graphic filtering on the games, and it looks very nice. But I have another glitch: every 10 seconds, I have some kind of glittering on the bottom side of the screen, very annoying.
I found that really weird as the OpenGl plugin is supposed to make the games look better.... In my case, it's the other way around.
Beside that, the emulation was very good for the 3 games I tried: FF9, Legend of Mana and Tales of Phantasia.
For now I got my money back from google store, but I hope you'll manage to fix that, so I can buy it again.
EDIT: After reading some other topics about OpenGL, and trying again myself, I realised that the OpenGl plugin works, and make a big difference, but only on 3D games. And the games I tried are mostly 2D.... My mistake!
But it doesn't solve the "Anti-Aliasing" checking issue, nor the glittering in softmode.


text: Before the change to the new board, there was a link to a site with Charlie Vergo's dry rib recipe and Neely's wet, in the most recent archive section I think. Of course I failed to copy it before the change. Does anyone recall the link? It seems it was an ABC site of some type.

And speaking of shiny beacons on hills of moron and greed, here's Jonathan Cheban, totally unaware that he just successfully auditioned for a sex tape, Billy Ray Cyrus not even sweating a parking ticket, because Satan already gave him that twerking money and John Kerry with some other gravely concerned members of the UN just barely staying awake to discuss how various multinational corporate interests will get to slice up and develop what's left of Syria after we help deliver freedom and democracy to them like we did in Iraq.

DETROIT - People everywhere on social media Thursday are seeing purple. It is part of a national 'Spirit Day' movement to take a united stand against bullying and to show support for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth.
Even the Detroit Tigers changed their Twitter profile picture (with the traditional blue and orange) to reflect their support of the cause.
Tigers fans will be able to learn more about Spirit Day at Comerica Park Thursday night during Game 5 of the American League Championship series against the Red Sox. There are going to be images flashed on the scoreboard and an announcement made to fans about how they can get involved in the cause.
Not every Detroit fan is happy about it. The Detroit Tigers Facebook page was riddled with comments from fans saying the team is supporting "immoral behavior" and "Now I have to unlike your page".
Support of the cause didn't go over well on the Atlanta Brave's facebook page - with several fans threatening to boycott the team.
'Spirit Day' began in October 2010. The name comes from the purple stripe of the Rainbow Flag.
Recent tweets about #SpiritDay include:22487850

Over the weekend I made a couple of stuffed tenderloins. I had wanted to cook a loin but the only ones at the store were the whole cuts and I didn't want that much, so I chose a package of tenderloins instead.
The first step was to butterfly them; 2 cuts for 3 pieces.
After salting and peppering the butterflied tenderloins I started the duxelle by running 8 ounces of mushrooms and a shallot through the food processor.
I browned some bacon pieces to render the fat, which was then used to cook down the mushrooms and shallots. When they were just about done I added the bacon back in along with a splash of madeira.
This was all done Friday night so the mushroom mixture would have time to cool in the fridge, and on Saturday morning I used it to stuff the tenderloins. One had a small hole that I covered with a folded piece of bacon.
For Saturday night supper I took one of the tenderloins and grilled it over a medium-low direct fire, about 5-6 minutes a side, until the temperature reached 140.
We were very happy with the results. The mushrooms and shallot added a lot of flavor and salting the pork ahead of time made a real difference.
This left me with the other, identical tenderloin and I decided to smoke it. I also had another 8 ounces of mushrooms so I put them in a clean foil drip pan along with some butter and pepper.
I kept the temperature around 275-300 until the internal temp reached 140.
I don't think much dripped from the tenderloin but the mushrooms still cooked nicely in the butter.
Even though it wasn't on the fire all that long the meat picked up some nice smoke.
But what made all the difference in the world was putting the mushrooms and butter over the sliced pork. They added another level of rich, smoky flavor, and Mrs. Chicken and I agreed that this was a winner.

Fill out and send the creditor a Judgment Debtor's Statement of Assets (Form SC-133)
Once the judgment against you is final and you do not pay voluntarily within 30 days, you are legally required to fill out a Judgment Debtor's Statement of Assets (Form SC-133) and send it to the creditor. In many local courts, the court clerk will mail a blank Form SC-133 to you with the original judgment.
If you do not send Form SC-133 to the creditor, he or she may do a debtor's examination to get information about your property, work, bank accounts, and other assets that the creditor can go after to get paid. Read Ways to Collect From the Debtor to learn about what the creditor can do to collect the judgment if you do not pay voluntarily.
If the creditor takes steps to collect the judgment, there may be something you can do. Get help from the small claims advisor. And get more information by clicking on the topic below that applies to your situation:
One of the main tools that the creditor can use to collect from you is a wage garnishment. If the creditor has received a judgment from a court that you own money, the creditor can file papers to have a portion of your paycheck garnished (taken or withheld) to pay off your debt. If this has been done, you will be given a copy of an Earnings Withholding Order (Form WG-002) . But the creditor will be limited in the amount he or she can take. Generally, about 25% of your take home pay will be withheld, but the creditor cannot take the part of your paycheck that you need to support yourself and your dependents. See the Employee Instructions (Form WG-003) you were given by your employer for more information. Click if you are an employer and received a wage garnishment order for an employee.
If the creditor tries to garnish your wages, you have several options:
A Claim of Exemption is a form a debtor files with the levying officer (the sheriff or marshal who issued the Earnings Withholding Order) explaining why the wages that the creditor wants the debtor's employer to garnish (take) should be exempt (excluded). There are laws and rules that say when exemptions are available. You can read about these in the Employee Instructions (Form WG-003).
To file a Claim of Exemption for a wage garnishment
As soon as possible after receiving a copy of the Earnings Withholding Order (Form WG-002) (the wage garnishment) from your employer:
Read the Employee Instructions (Form WG-003) for more detail or if you have more questions.
To oppose a Claim of Exemption for a wage garnishment
If the judgment creditor wants to oppose the Claim of Exemption, within 10 days of the mailing date shown on Item 1 of the Notice of Filing of Claim of Exemption (Form WG-008), the creditor must:
As a debtor, if the creditor tries to take any asset of yours other than your wages through a levy or garnishment, you can also file a claim of exemption. See Code of Civil Procedure section 704.010 for a list of what you need to put in a claim of exemption.
A Claim of Exemption is a form a debtor files with the levying officer (like the sheriff or marshal) explaining why the property or money that the creditor wants to take should be exempt (excluded). There are laws and rules that say which types of income or property are exempt. You can read many of these exemptions in Exemptions From the Enforcement of Judgments (Form EJ-155).
To file a Claim of Exemption for a levy or other nonwage garnishment
Within 10 days from receiving the Notice of Levy:
To oppose a Claim of Exemption for a nonwage garnishment (not wages)
If the judgment creditor wants to oppose the Claim of Exemption, within 10 days of receiving a Notice from the levying officer that the judgment debtor has filed a Claim of Exemption along with a copy of the Claim of Exemption, the creditor must:

After analyzing brain scans of hundreds of children over almost two decades, researchers have found that the brains of smarter children develop later in life than the brains of children with average intelligence.
In all children, the Cerebral Cortex grows thicker to a certain point and then thins out during the next few years. In children with average intelligence this thinning out starts at around age 7. In children with above average intelligence, the thinning out doesn't start until as late as age 13.
It is still unclear what factors, besides genes, may contribute to this difference, but environmental factors have not been ruled out.

It is written several places in the bible that soccer sucks. And the word of God is strong — apparently just not in St. Louis — where people really freaking dig soccer.
Much of it goes back more than 60 years, when five of the 11 players on the U.S. National team that defeated a communist squad from England in the 1950 World Cup were from St. Louis.
Then St. Louis University began racking up NCAA soccer championships like Kardashians collect rings from guys they eventually dump and humiliate, while the Heisman Trophy of college soccer — The Hermann Trophy — is named for St. Louisan Bob Hermann and awarded by the Missouri Athletic Club.
The point being that the "force" is strong in these St. Louis soccer fans. And that's why it was not all that surprising when two of the first five ideas budgeted by Rally Saint Louis — which we've covered a few times — were related to soccer, in spite of its suckiness. Plus, there was yet another sports-related idea regarding basketball, which does not suck whatsoever.
Here's a recap of the three sports ideas, and you can review and fund any of them here:
- Project Blacktop: Submitted by Wash-U hoops player Tim Cooney, Project Blacktop creates a nonprofit whose goal is to beautify urban areas of St. Louis with functional outdoor basketball courts that serve as hubs for the neighborhood and host community building events. It's been budgeted at $15,000.00 for a full court and $10,000 for a half court. You can help fund it here.
- St. Louis Pick-up Soccer: Creating a large turfed lit space centrally located in the St. Louis-area for year round outdoor soccer use. There were three tiers of budgets created including $860,000.00 (full-size field), $390,000.00 (medium size), and $142,000.00 (smaller field). You can fund it here.
- Bring National Soccer Hall Of Fame to St. Louis: The National Soccer Hall of Fame closed its doors in 2010. Its artifacts and memorabilia sit in storage, and it's time to bring those collections to St Louis and re-open the museum in soccer's American home, St Louis. Because of the complexity of the project, the budget was pushed until next month but it's coming, so hold tight soccer people.
Keep in mind that Rally Saint Louis seeks micro-donations. So if you dig an idea and can only throw literally $1 at a project, that's cool. It's all about the crowd.
That is all, for now.

THERE were a few tears and lots of laughter as a mum-of-two came face-to-face for the first time with the former "bad boy" who has offered to donate his kidney to her.
Walking through the doors of The Albion, Bath Road, Sally-Anne Grainger was soon standing in front of Wesley Joyce, the stranger who responded to her desperate front page plea for a live organ donor.
After embracing for several seconds, the pair sat down to talk to one another with Miss Grainger, from Swallowfields, Warndon Villages, admitting she was nervous and Mr Joyce claiming he could not sleep the night before.
Both had said they hoped to see one another before the operation and asked your Worcester News to organise a meeting.
Mr Joyce said: "It's real now.
"Up until now it hasn't really affected me, I haven't really thought about it.
"I'm in hospital tomorrow [Wednesday] to see which kidney you're having and even that hasn't affected me
"But meeting you, it is now very, very real."
He put his head in his hands as he tried to fight back tears before telling Miss Grainger: "All I can say is that I have done everything I can.
"It is in the doctor's hands now but I hope it works out for you. I really, really do."
Miss Grainger, who has cystic fibrosis, is in desperate need of a kidney transplant after strong medication she took during a double lung transplant in 2009 led to renal failure.
Usually very chatty, the 34-year-old seemed lost for words but told the dad-of-four: "I am so grateful to you I can't even thank you enough - words are useless."
She also reassured the pub owner that if the operation could not go ahead for any reason, she would always remain grateful to him for coming forward.
But Mr Joyce said he would do everything in his power to make it go ahead: "This is going to happen, this is all fate.
"Sometimes you can stop fate and change it - I was going in a bad direction before.
"Three years ago I was doing everything possible wrong and I thought "I need to stop this" so I put my foot down and changed and went the other way.
"If I only do good then good can only happen back."
After the ice was broken, the pair happily chatted away, sharing a similar humour with Mr Joyce revealing his dream was to pour Miss Grainger a pint of beer on Christmas day.
When Miss Grainger jokingly said she would prefer wine he quipped: "Wine then, just make sure you take care of my kidney."
Explaining why he would take part in a major operation for a stranger, Mr Joyce, 32, said he hoped prisoners or other ex-prisoners would read the story and realise they could also turn their lives around.
He explained upon seeing the Worcester News front page story he thought "It's time to change, Wes".
"I just couldn't imagine my children growing up without their mum in their lives."
The former Worcester City player even revealed when he lived in Blackpool a fortune teller had predicted he would change a woman's life and his lucky number was 33.
The pub owner will turn 33 in August - the month of the operation.

What to Wear Next: First Looks from Fashion Week
Is the real-life Don Draper the new George Clooney? In a double-breasted tux that fits him like a second skin, he has become the gold standard to which every man should aspire. It's difficult to look completely at ease in double-breasted — the extra fabric can add volume and weight — but Hamm is completely at ease. Well done, sir. Well done.
It pains us to say it (especially because he won), but it looks like our man forgot to stop getting dressed about halfway through: Downey forgot the tie, didn't brush the hair, and haphazardly stuffed the fat pocket square into a halfway decent tux. Those big studs and lapels are a bit much, too, but honestly, man, it would've all been fine with a damn bow tie.
