Highlights from Around the District
High school art students across Lexington School District Two currently have their artwork on display through February 6 at the District Education Center. A reception was held the evening of January 30 to give parents, students, and the community an opportunity to visit the exhibited work. During the reception, a student strings ensemble from Brookland-Cayce High School performed for those attending. The District Education Center is located at 715 Ninth Street, West Columbia, SC 29169.
The middle school art show will be held during the month of February followed by the District's elementary school shows during the month of March. The art showings are an annual event.
The boys and girls in Mrs. Mandi Sturkie's class at Davis Early Childhood Center for Technology were invited to attend USC's Reading Express with Cocky in December. The students enjoyed the intimate holiday reading event at the home of USC's President Pastides. The First Lady Patricia Moore-Pastides read three Christmas books to the students beside their family Christmas tree while Cocky acted out each story. Each student received two books of their own. After the stories, the children enjoyed juice and cookies in the family dining room. Although their picnic in the horseshoe was rained out, they had a wonderful and memorable time.
Pine Ridge Middle and Northside Middle schools are proud to announce their winners for the annual Lions International Peace Poster Contest: PRMS 1st place winner - Rose Branton, 2nd place - Amea Zeigler, and 3rd place - Makayla Lykes and NMS 1st place winner Marleigh King, 2nd place - Alexis Degar Trevino and 3rd place – Aaliyah Day. The students from PRMS were from the sixth grade Art Honors class and the winners from NMS were from the seventh grade class. Art teachers, Danielle Province (PRMS) and Amy Merle (NMS) encouraged students to participate in the contest and are proud of these winners. This year's theme was "Our World, Our Future". Students were required to brainstorm, research, and implement their vision on paper. Students worked independently for weeks designing their poster in the medium of their choice. Each was judged on originality, artistic merit and expression of the theme. Posters advanced through several judging levels: local, district, multiple district and international. Rose Branton (PRMS) and Marleigh King's (NMS) posters were sent to the Lion's Multiple District Contest where they were judged and in the top 10. They were competing against students from all over the state of South Carolina. All six students were honored with awards and prizes by the Lions Club of Cayce-West Columbia at the Grecian Gardens Restaurant on January 14.
Second grade students spent the past couple of months completing a weather unit. Students learned how to explain the effects of wind, correctly using various weather terms, illustrate the weather of different seasons, and how to measure and record daily weather conditions. All of that knowledge came together January 9 as Congaree Elementary hosted Ben Tanner from WIS News 10. Mr. Tanner explained his job as a meteorologist, how he uses weather models and maps to forecast the weather, and how students can be safe during severe weather. When Mr. Tanner reached the portion of his presentation where he discussed various tools used to keep the public informed about weather conditions, the students surprised him with the number of their suggestions, such as utilizing Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. To celebrate their learning and their special guest, students and teachers created weather hats. Each unique hat showcased a particular type of weather. Students enjoyed wearing them during the presentation and then during a short parade afterward. As you can see, all had a fun time. Thank you Ben Tanner and WIS News 10 for partnering with us!
BCAA 6th Grader, Asher Kay, Wins School Geography Bee.
Thanks to all the students who participated in Busbee Creative Arts Academy's Geography Bee Competition sponsored by the National Geographic Society. Congratulations to Asher Kay, Busbee's school winner. Asher will take a qualifying exam in hopes of participating at the state level competition. The class-level winners are pictured below with Asher Kay in the center wearing his winner's medallion: Adam Sassenger, Tristan Pridgen, Joe Pradubsri, and Demetrius Mundine, D'Ante Myers, Ethan Moody, Vincent Simpson, Megan Avery, Haley Russo, Nyshe Fields, and Samuel "Tre" Baucom.
Mr. Gregg Morton, Principal of Brookland-Cayce High School is pleased to announce that WilliamH. Sox (Will), son of Mark and Amary Sox, has been named a 2014 National Merit Semifinalist by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation of CollegeBoard, sponsors of the SAT. This honorable distinction is given to students who score exceedingly well on the PSAT which is given in the fall of a student's junior year of high school. On the PSAT, Will made a perfect score on the math section and in all three sections he scored higher than 99% of all juniors across the nation. Will is one of 16,000 high school seniors in the nation who has been designated as a semifinalist and he now has the opportunity to compete for National Merit Scholarships this year.
Soldier Surprises Students who Wrote to Him while Deployed
Staff Sargent Gregg Burrer came to Pineview Elementary at 9:00am on September 20 to thank Mrs. Kristi Hall and
Mrs. Leslie Dillard who had their students from last year write to him and send him care packages for the 6 months he was in Afghanistan. He presented them with a certificate of appreciation and spoke with students while he was there.

Congresswoman claims a Filner groping (years ago)
Former San Diego mayor allegedly went in for a kiss
Don Bauder 5:30 p.m., Nov. 20
If chaos theorists truly believe the flapping of a butterfly's wings caused Hurricane Katrina, they must have been snorting the dust off a north-bound Colombian Monarch.
They clearly have never interviewed anyone ignorant or unfortunate enough to spend their daylight hours in a suburban neighborhood. Had they stepped out of their concrete labs and ivory towers, they would have quickly discovered the far more obvious source of Katrina and every other hurricane and cyclone of the last 30 years.
From sunrise to sunset, suburban air is filled with the sound, fury and dust storms fomented by millions of unmuffled 2-stroke engines spinning impellers that blast air out of black plastic tubes at speeds approaching 200 miles per hour. Yes, I'm talking about 1970s Japan's high-tech answer to the broom--the leaf blower.
I'm painfully aware no one forced me to spend my daylight hours here. I'm the one who agreed we could afford to move from our two-bedroom apartment and rent a four-bedroom house in Del Mar Heights if I gave up my Miramar office and we didn't have to pay for storage for all the useless and rarely-used crap that now lines our two-car garage. But accepting responsibity is a long way from surrender and peaceful co-existence.
Since it's Friday, I've just slammed shut all my west-facing windows to keep out the leaf blower exhaust fumes, dust and detritis billowing across the street from my neighbor's lawn, sidewalks and driveway. As I write this, I glance at the thermostat rising toward and beyond 80 degrees even though it's barely 70 outside. I do my best to convert my spiking cortisol levels into homicidal reveries toward the inventor, manufacturers, and users of every last leaf blower on earth. My mind drifts to the scene in 'The Mask' where Jim Carrey's alter ego exacts revenge on the two thieving auto repairmen.
His alter ego picks up two exhaust pipes (mufflers attached) and declares with a malicious smile, "It's time for an overhaul!" The police and ambulances arrive to find a proctologist's nightmare. Substitute leaf blowers--whining at full-throttle--for the embedded exhaust systems and you'll have an inkling of my idea of vengeance. The lowest level of hell is reserved for the inventor. The next lowest is for the gardener whom I watched--and listened to--wrangle a single liquid amber leaf down 70 feet of sidewalk rather than bend over and pick the damn thing up.
And, before my desire to turn all leaf blowers into rectal or penile implants for their users elicits charges of racism, classism, reverse sexism or being a Luddite, let me point out research that's been done on the effectiviness of a broom versus a leaf blower. Go to http://www.nonoise.org/quietnet/cqs/leafblow.htm#grandma and you can see that, in a series of 3 different "clean up tasks" conducted by L.A.'s Department of Water and Power, a 60-year-old grandmother using a rake and broom out-performed both gas and electric leaf blowers wielded by professional gardeners. (And on the same site you can view all the health hazards from asthma to digestive problems to spreading flower-killing fungi that slower-than-a-broom leaf blowers cause.)
Back to Katrina . . . . About a month before that F-3 hurricane revealed the true levels of competence and compassion of the Bush Family, FEMA, and Xe (the mercenary army formerly known as Blackwater), my Rumble in the Jungle, my Thrilla from Manila, 'my High Noon' with a leaf blower-armed neighbor, presented itself.
His machine was so large and generating so great a volume of dust and noise that, in hindsight, I'm almost certain the manufacturer required that a bottle of Viagra and human growth hormone be mixed with each tank of oil and gasoline. At full throttle, it could have filled the Goodyear blimp in two minutes, and popped it in two and a half.
But, like Gary Cooper trying to please his Quaker bride in the beginning of High Noon, because my diplomatic and confrontation-averse spouse (who's also a mental health counselor) walked beside me, I just squinted into the cloud of dust and kept moving. However, I couldn't help but turn my acid gaze toward the offending neighbor as we passed along the opposite sidewalk as far away from the blower as we could get.
To my surprise, he suddenly acted as if he were the offended party. "What?! You got a problem with me cleaning my yard?!" As his eyes drilled into my mine, I could feel my wife's burning into the back of my head as she grabbed my hand and tried to keep me moving forward. "Sorry," I said in as sarcastic a tone as I could muster, "I didn't know you owned the whole damn street."
I half-expected him to charge me, but, probably because my wife was with me, he just slowly turned away and went back to creating the vortex, that I believe in retrospect, most probably caused Hurricane Katrina. I knew my wife was relieved. But I was still in adrenaline overload for the next five minutes. My wife, good counselor that she is, calmly let me rant in anti-leaf blower mode for awhile. Then when she sensed I had spent most of my ire, she calmly said, "You know, I think something was already bothering him before he yelled at us." I looked at her incredulously. But I knew that because of her hypervigilance, legacy of a less-than-idyllic childhood, she had probably caught something I had totally missed. "I'll bet he just had a run-in with one of his neighbors, and you just happened to give him the evil eye when he was ruminating about it. It was just a shame-provoked response."
"So what are you going to do," I asked, "go back and offer to take him on as a client?"
"No. I just feel he wasn't even aware of what he was doing. I don't think he realized that the wind was blowing his dust toward us. He really wasn't aiming at us." We walked on in silence the last five minutes till we made it home.
Much as I hated to admit it, especially due to the nature of the "weapon" involved, there was a better-than-even chance my good-natured bride was right. Then I thought of that guy's house being along our favorite walking route. If I let things stand as they were, I'd either have to gird myself into fight-or-flight mode every time I walked by, or choose another route. Neither option appealed to me.
So, letting out a deep sigh, I grabbed my backpack and went to the fridge. I stuck in two bottles of Beck's and one of organic root beer (just in case the guy was on a 12-step program). I jumped on my bike, and less than three minutes later pulled up to his front door. I hesitated a second, then knocked. A pretty blonde opened the door, and waited patiently for me to explain my presence.
"Well, your husband and I had a little misunderstanding out in the street about 20 minutes ago, and I was kind of hoping we could try and straighten it out."
Her eyes narrowed a little, but she left the door ajar as she went to fetch him. Two minutes later, Ted and I were sitting in his living room, opening the beers I'd brought. "Beck's is my favorite," he told me. Then he went on to confirm my wife's theory, by telling me that he'd gotten into it with his neighbor earlier that day over his speedboat in the driveway. Turned out he was a general contractor with a fondness for internal combustion engines.
When he asked me why I had looked so angry, I told him it was nothing personal, I just hated leaf blowers on principle. He apologized and said he usually didn't use his blower much, but he had just trimmed back a lot of shrubs so he could re-stucco and paint the outside of his house.
Fifteen minutes later, I was pedaling home feeling almost Ghandi-like. Ted and I have never had another beer together. But four years later, we always smile and say hi to each other whenever my wife and I pass by.
But, if there were a magic button I could push to morph every last leaf blower into a copy of "Gone With the Wind," I'd do it in a heartbeat.
[Post script: The City of Del Mar is the only city in San Diego County with an ordinance banning the use of leaf blowers within its city limits:
"It shall be unlawful for any person to use or operate within the City, any portable machine, powered with a gasoline engine or electric motor, to blow leaves, dirt and other debris off sidewalks, driveways, lawns, and other surfaces."]

Dear Readers: Apologies from the author on the shoddy translation of formatting to the blog. I swear I'm not getting any kickbacks from your optometrists. Apparently I'm just too low-tech or The Reader's system and AppleWorks 6 are not entirely on speaking terms. Thanks for your patience. -rr
Rabbit: Most HTML tags work just fine here. KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid). No offense, simply a suggestion when it comes to formatting. Otherwise, it's a nice story.
"If chaos theorists truly believe the flapping of a butterfly's wings caused Hurricane Katrina, they must have been snorting the dust off a north-bound Colombian Monarch."
Theorists use the "Butterfly Effect" only as a conceptual aid--they do not "believe" it as you describe.
"...a 60-year-old grandmother using a rake and broom out-performed both gas and electric leaf blowers wielded by professional gardeners."
My grandmother was right! ;)
Great story! Down with leaf blowers, up with rakes and brooms!
And, obviously, up with butterflies.
If all that howling resulted in the dirt and debris being tightly wrapped up in a bag ready for the landfill, I'd be more tolerant of them. But all the blowers do is MOVE IT AROUND. To get rid of it, it has to be swept or shoveled into a container. So, most often, by moving it from a spot where the junk is obvious, the debris is pushed into a corner, gutter, or backyard where it isn't noticed.
I have a next door neighbor who blows his patio, which is the lowest spot on his lot. Hellooo, that patio slider door isn't windproof or dustproof! 'Course, he doesn't clean inside, his wife does that.
Another neighbor actually blows the leaves and debris off a bare dirt lot. Want to see a dust cloud? Drop by when he's blowing the dirt around.
They're just wonderful appliances, those leaf blowers. If it were not for those, what would we spend our money on? And how about all the gasoline they burn inefficiently? We need something for the sun to react so that we can have our signature smog.
They fill a niche for the muscle-impaired who want to be gardeners and groundskeepers. Sweeping is hard work.

By Kathy McCabe Globe Staff / May 20, 2007

DANVERS -- Six months after a fiery explosion ripped apart Danversport, a new neighborhood is rising. Homes have been knocked flat. Modular houses have been dropped into place from cranes. Buzzing saws and banging hammers echo across two narrow side streets, joined like a horseshoe. (Full article: 941 words)

text: So I went to partition my sd card so I could get more room on XTR 184.108.40.206. I had the rom loaded, and set up, and I partioned the sd card (just chose Partition SD card option in the boot menu), and now when I rebooted my phone, it says "process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly". And I can't reload any nandroid back ups can I can't get the phone to get past this screen. Do I physically need to take my SD card out, mount it to my computer, put the contents of my SD card that I have on my computer back onto the sd card, and put it in my phone? Or is there an easier way to get past this process error?

Jessica: I've always wanted to have little Johnson's running around.
Jessica: That's the one thing about pregnancy: I'll cry at the drop of a hat. Even a great souffle would make me cry.
Jessica: I was always the girl who wore sweat pants and baseball caps to not be intimidating, but now I've learned to embrace beauty as part of my career.
Jessica: I would love to be making records and making babies and hopefully I'm married in 10 years. I have the dreams of every normal person. I want to be a great aunt.
Jessica: (revealing her first country album and her fan reactions have made her anxious) I am so nervous. I know this is a part of me that people are going to see that they've been waiting to see and I've been waiting to let out so it's very exciting.
Jessica: I love mini-skirts...because I'm mini.
Jessica: Dumb is just not knowing. Ditzy is having the courage to ask! Ditzy is not editing yourself.
Jessica: Beauty is never a blessing or a curse--I don't believe that old wives' tale. Beauty is a gift we give ourselves when we believe we are unique.
Jessica: There are a lot of girls with a similar body to mine, but my nose is special and unique to me.
Jessica: I am lactose intolerant. Don't give me any dairy! You will hear it come out at all ends!
Jessica: I always get a Mystic Tan before events.
Jessica: I'm not anorexic. I'm from Texas. Are there people who are anorexic in Texas? I've never heard of one, including me.
Jessica: (asked if she calls herself an actress or a singer) I say I'm an entertainer. I obviously entertain people with my personal life, which is not so much fun. But I'm passionate about music, I love to sing, I love to write, take pictures, keep a journal, be an actress, make movies. I just love entertaining people, being that escapism for people. Getting them through a hard day. And if I go through heartbreak, I invite you to go through it with me. I'm an overall entertainer and that's what I want to be known as.
Jessica: I don't feel the need to impress anymore. I've worked for a long time to get where I am, and now I can be comfortable in my own skin. I feel more in control of my life. Outward appearance is just secondary to the confidence that I feel inside.
Jessica: I stuttered as a kid, but I think it was because I had too much in my head.
Jessica (on body shapes): There's something very empowering about curves. You've got to have a little bit of bounce.
Jessica: Natural beauty is happiness with who you are. If you're like who are you in the inside, that will come through the outside.
Jessica: I can't use chopsticks. I fling stuff all over the place.
Jessica: I'm such a guys' girl. I can burp with the best of them!
Jessica: I'm open and honest...I don't want to put on armor to fight people...[but I've been] used so many times in my life.
Jessica: (talking about hardest part of being in a marriage) It's a big lifestyle adjustment. Nick and I are opposites...I've always been pampered; he's taken care of himself for so long...He expects me to be domestic; I don't know how. Nick is the neat freak; I'm not. I am a great cook, though. I spend too much money, so we fight about that...you can't expect every minute to be a fairy tale. But you will always work things out.
Jessica: (talking about her favorite look) I like off-the-shoulder shirts, big hoop or chandelier earrings, really tight jeans, and a great pair of Manolo Blahniks. Or I'm totally in a cute Juicy Couture outfit. I like to be comfy but look chic.
Jessica: All girls should have enough confidence to look good and be proud of it.
Jessica: I have always been able to express my creativity in the entertainment industry. Now with the launch of my own brand, I will be able to share my love of fashion and my lifestyle with my fans, and women across America.
Jessica: After a good make-out session, I feel pretty!
Jessica: Even if you don't like my music or my acting, you'll love my shoes!
Jessica: (on filming 'Employee Of The Month' ) I have my hair blown out pretty and flirt a little bit. I play a normal cashier girl and that's pretty much it. I just smile and have nice hair.
Jessica: I respect knowledge of the psyche. I would be a therapist if I weren't an entertainer.


text: Seems to me G33 gets around, so might as well let loose. So to speak... Personally, I always thought of 'Round Numbers' as ending in zeros (as in CA$H money, Honey), but if you look closely (not too closely, Dinky/Bullman/et al...), you will see that G33 is, in fact, round. Then again, it's all a matter of, um...perspective, I'm sure.

US Praises Bulgaria's Burgas Terror Probe, Condemns Hezbollah
US Secretary of State John Kerry has lauded Bulgaria for its "thorough and professional investigation" into the July 18, 2012, Burgas terrorist attack.
"The finding is clear and unequivocal: Lebanese Hezbollah was responsible for this deadly assault on European soil. We condemn Hezbollah in the strongest terms for an attack which bears striking similarities to other disrupted plots of the last year," Kerry has said in a statement.
'The United States is acting decisively and comprehensively to curtail Hezbollah's destabilizing actions in Europe, Southeast Asia, South America, and the Middle East, and we are prepared to do all within our power to assist the Government of Bulgaria in bringing those responsible for the Burgas attack to justice."
The US Secretary of State has further urged the governments around the world – "and particularly our partners in Europe" – to take immediate action to crack down on Hezbollah.
"We need to send an unequivocal message to this terrorist group that it can no longer engage in despicable actions with impunity."
Bulgarian Interior Minister Tsvetan Tsvetanov stated Tuesday that Bulgarian investigators had "a well-founded assumption" that the perpetrators of the deadly attack belonged to the military formation of Hezbollah.
Tsvetanov revealed that a man with an Australian passport and a man with a Canadian passport were two of the three conspirators involved in the attack, which claimed the lives of five Israeli tourists and a Bulgarian bus driver.

Jones gets closer to a decision
Dave Rodman
FOUNTAIN, Colo. (June 13, 1998) Buckshot Jones hopes that his next NASCAR Winston Cup Series start will come in next Sunday's Pocono 500 at Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, Pa. Jones has already tested the Aquafresh Pontiac he'll try to qualify on Friday for what would be his third career series start.
Beyond that, barring an unforeseen occurrence, it seems a sure bet that he will not desert his family operation with which he's contending for the NASCAR Busch Series Grand National Division championship. Jones is no longer the leading candidate for the seat in the Stavola Brothers Racing No. 8 Circuit City Chevrolet.
Jones, taking a break after practicing his Bayer/Alka-Seltzer Pontiac for Sunday's Lycos.com 250 at Pikes Peak International Raceway, said he could see more reasons not to make the jump.
"After what happened at Richmond in the Busch car, I don't know that I want to do anything else in conjunction with a Busch race," Jones said of an abortive attempt to qualify the Stavolas' car. "After I wrecked our (Busch) car in qualifying, I had to go and practice the Cup car.
"Then we had a last round of Busch practice and by the time I got out of the Cup car and got to my Busch car, we had to wait in line for about 10 minutes to practice. I lost 10 minutes of practice that I couldn't afford to miss and I gave up a little there."
Jones eventually took a provisional to make the Hardee's 250 and went on to finish 30th in that race. He fell three spots in the NASCAR Busch Series standings, to seventh. He said that enough was enough.
"The Busch deal is my main concern and I'm not going to do anything else this year that's going to jeopardize that," said Jones, who is 277 points out of first in the NASCAR Busch Series standings heading into Sunday's event. "If I do any more races that are in conjunction, I would say it would be just one or two, but not any more than that."
That alone would make a full NASCAR Winston Cup program unlikely, as there are nine "combination" races remaining on the schedule this season. He did say that in addition to his going to work for the Stavolas, there has also been talk of the teams merging in some fashion.
"That's one of the deals that's being talked about, but that would be tough," Jones said. "Billy's got his own shop and we're building a new shop close to where we are now in Spartanburg (S.C.). It'd be hard for me to leave what I've got.
"My dad's run my team since I started racing. I don't think I could get any better. If I went over to the Stavolas and after six or seven races I had a bad run, or me and Jim (Long, crew chief) couldn't communicate -- heck, I'm out of a job.
"Where I am now I'm not out of a job. It'd be hard to leave dad, but the hardest thing would be to leave this team. There's no way I'd leave them. If I go, they're going with me...as long as they want to go.
"I already told Billy (Stavola) that and he said there wouldn't be a problem with Ricky (Pearson, Buckshot Racing crew chief) coming, but the rest of the team...
"I don't know, the whole thing's still open... I'll always listen to what anyone's got to say and there may be something there that would work out where they'd be part owners and dad would be a part owner. If I was to drive for someone else besides my dad, I'd definitely drive for Billy Stavola. He seems to be one of the fairest owners in this racing. He seems to give these guys everything they need and money is not an object."
At any rate, Jones knows he has a five-race NASCAR Winston Cup Series deal for this season with Aquafresh. Beyond that -- and next weekend's race at Pocono, which is an off-weekend for the NASCAR Busch Series -- he's not sure.
"Next week for sure we'll have an answer," Jones said. "I need to know what I'm going to do. Billy needs to know because if I'm not going to do it he needs to find someone who's gonna drive full time.
"That's another thing. I told him he probably needs to find somebody else. I can't drive the rest of the year for him. It's hard for a team to get a sponsor when you're going from driver to driver. It doesn't look good."
There is one other possibility Jones said has been discussed.
"We talked about maybe taking the sponsorship to them and running the races, and maybe a few more than the five, in their equipment," he said. "It's possible we might run more than five, now that this opportunity's come up."

Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon gets my vote, best shooter of 2013.
I'd vote for Killzone Shadow Fall if it were nominated. It reviewed higher than COD Ghosts.

Battlefield 4
Bioshock Infinite for me.
Blood Dragon 3 was pure awesomeness, but the BF 4 Multiplayer wins the vote.
This year was pretty poor for FPS fans. Metro: Last Light was rather excellent though. Haven't played Bioshock yet, but it's not really an FPS. More like a hybrid. COD - same old, average gameplay, unimaginitive concept, poor graphics BF4 - great visuals and gameplay but reeks of bugs and glitches, it's more like a BF3.5 KZSF - good all around (except story) but won't win because critics disliked it

We are closing in on the end of another memorable and eventful year in sports. LeBron James returned to Cleveland, the Legion of Boom were rewarded with a Lombardi, the Spurs anti-aging machine worked its magic and the San Francisco Giants somehow became a dynasty. However, as notable as all those IRL events were, Twitter also had its fair share of great moments. Sometimes, they were even more amusing than the games themselves. Without further ado, here were some of the best tweets to hit the internet in 2014.
Richard Sherman - "Can't ever be too mad"
Patrick Peterson one-upped Richard Sherman in the contract department this offseason when the Cardinals cornerback got a five-year, $70 million extension. Not one to ever let any perceived slight slide, Sherman retweeted a couple of comparisons between him and Peterson that showed Sherman in a more favorable light. Peterson inevitably saw those and tweeted:
Yu mad bro!!!! LMAO😂😂😂😂😭— Patrick Peterson /P2 (@P2) July 30, 2014
In reply, Sherman brought out the big guns: his Super Bowl ring:
Can't ever be too mad lmao... pic.twitter.com/ZHA28B9Tji— Richard Sherman (@RSherman_25) July 30, 2014
Joel Embiid moves from Kim Kardashian to Rihanna
In almost no time at all, Joel Embiid became the King of Twitter. While the seeds of Embiid's genius were evident in his Twitter campaign to recruit LeBron James to the 76ers, Joel really came into his own with his tweets to Kim Kardashian and Rihanna:
Ok so @kimkardashian hasn't DM'd yet...... Should she be blocked too? I'm ready to block her though— Joel Embiid (@JoelEmbiid) July 22, 2014
Oh I didn't know you were married sorry @KimKardashian just saw it from the fan's tweet... have a nice day— Joel Embiid (@JoelEmbiid) July 16, 2014

Phil Jackson - "Go get'em Flea"
It's been a bit of a rough season for Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers are losing and Bryant has gotten some flack for his usage rate and the size of his contract. After one scathing piece on Bryant was published by Henry Abbott, Red Hot Chili Pepper band member and Los Angeles Lakers fan Flea took to Twitter to defend Kobe. The fact that Phil Jackson took the time to co-sign the tweet spoke volumes.
"@flea333: henry abbott your @espn kobe article is absolute garbage and a blatant irresponsible attack. "Go get'em, Flea— Phil Jackson (@PhilJackson11) October 21, 2014
Jim Ross goes all Jim Ross on the NBA finals
"Perfect" is a word that is thrown around a little too freely on the internet but there's really no other word that adequately describes how, well, perfect Jim Ross's tweet was on Game 5 of the NBA Finals. The Spurs blew out the Heat 104-87 and won the Finals in decisive fashion, but Jim Ross was the real winner that night.
BAH GAWD...STOP THE DAMN #NBAFinals....THE @MiamiHEAT HAVE FAMILIES DAMMIT!!!— Jim Ross (@JRsBBQ) June 16, 2014
Sidney Rice - "Boo this man"
Boo this man... 👻— Sidney Rice (@sidneyrice) September 19, 2014
Roger Goodell has not been popular this year. During a particularly cringe-worthy press conference in the wake of the Ray Rice scandal, NFL players began tweeting their displeasure with Goodell's performance. No tweet was more apt than this one from retired wide receiver Sidney Rice who summed up everything in three words.
Joe Kelly's wife masterfully trolls him over Derek Jeter selfie
The hoopla surrounding Derek Jeter's RE2PECT Retirement Tour was far-reaching. At Jeter's last game at Fenway Park, even Red Sox players couldn't help but get caught up in the ceremonial hype. Joe Kelly used the occasion to take a selfie with the Captain. And as groan-worthy as that moment was, it was worth it for Ashley Kelly's reaction on Twitter.
When I was 12, I thought I would marry Jeter. Instead I married the guy that took a selfie w/ him during his ceremony pic.twitter.com/3BrkWBQHgy— Ashley Kelly (@ashleynicokelly) September 28, 2014
Michael Sam offers suggestion to fan on Twitter bet
Rams vs Browns tonight. If Michael Sam sacks Johnny Football & gives the money sign, drinks are on me. For everyone in the world. Forever.— FISHER KING (@SquareKnight) August 23, 2014
Remarkably, the internet did not implode when Michael Sam sacked Johnny Manziel during the NFL preseason. However, one fan unwisely wagered that he'd buy... everyone a drink if Sam sacked Manziel before the game. Since fulfilling such a bet is costly and logistically improbable, the fan asked for suggestions for a charity he could donate to instead. Michael Sam heard about the bet and offered his own recommendation on Twitter in one of the feel-good Twitter moments of the year:
I heard there was a drink offer... In lieu of that @SquareKnight the Boys & Girls Club of Greater STL could use help! pic.twitter.com/qzseOXJfED— Michael Sam (@MichaelSam52) August 24, 2014

Jenn Sterger congratulates Peyton Manning
Peyton Manning broke the all-time record for touchdown passes during this year's Broncos-49ers game. While many tweets of congratulations flew around the web, none were better than Jenn Sterger's, who managed to get in a massive jab at Brett Favre for the alleged... unwanted photos and voicemails that he sent to Sterger while he was playing for the Jets.
Hey Peyton, if that congratulatory text from "He who shall not be named" is an MMS... Prolly best to just delete that one.— Jenn Sterger (@jennifersterger) October 20, 2014

Conditions in Fla. favorable for more wildfires
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - The smell of smoke is in downtown Orlando.
On Sunday, a brush fire caused a part of State Road 528 to be shut down between Orlando and the Space Coast. A fire burned last week near the north-central Florida town of Bunnell and another one destroyed 10 homes near Jacksonville.
Parts of Florida are under a drought, and firefighters worry that dry conditions, strong winds and low humidity are increasing the chances of wildfires.
The Orlando Sentinel (http://bit.ly/2nTGx8d ) reports that Florida has seen about 30 percent more fires in the first three months of 2017 than the year before,
Forest Ranger Mike Facente of the Florida Forest Service said there have been 1,000 wildfires in Florida so far this year, compared to 700 fires from January to March last year. So far in 2017, 46,000 acres have burned, compared to 12,900 acres during the same period last year.
"With the conditions right now with these winds, (fire) hits the ground and it's gone," Facente said.
Firefighters, landowners and farmer typically conduct prescribed burns to eliminate vegetation that could fuel a wildfire.
But the Forest Service last week temporarily stopped authorizing the controlled burns because of the dry conditions. The Forest Service will likely begin authorizing planned burns again once the state gets at least another inch of rain, Facente said.
The Forest Service recommends keeping some water nearby when burning anything outside and also not burning on windy days. The service also recommends keeping vegetation away from homes.
No Central Florida counties are currently under burn bans, which are issued by county governments, but residents should use caution, Facente said.
"We need a lot of self-awareness right now," Facente said. "Be mindful of your barbecue grills and don't leave fires unattended."

Your smartphone is getting hot and sometimes extremely hot but, you are out of clue what is causing that overheat. That one question is constantly bother you what Why does my phone get hot? There are many instances when a phone gets heated up either you are gaming too much or calling for long or extreme weather and much more. All of these instances only make your phone get hot and ultimately sluggish. Sometimes the phone even get's switched off and till it get's cooled you cannot turn it on again. If you are unable to sort out the issue then I must tell you that there is not just one specific problem for overheat, there can be many. Most of the problems will be covered in this article so read it and try the solutions to minimize overheating.
Old Software
Old Software is one of the most common reasons for your phones getting hot. When a particular software (in this case either Operating System or an App) get old and doesn't get updated then it creates issues with other software. Thus your phones start to get heated up due to constant interference of that old software with the working of your phone.
Now what you can do is, update the old software if the old software is causing an issue or remove it totally.
Faulty Software Upgrade
Other reason can be that you installed a software update (either of an App or an Operating System) and it has bugs. When a software company releases new update patches they sometimes release it with bugs and then you have to face the consequences. So if you have recently updated an app or the operating system of your phone then, that might be the issue of overheating.
If you have updated the software and heating occurred then you have to roll back the software update. This way you wan't have to ask again that why does my phone get hot?
Tip: Before downloading any software update you must read the reviews of people who have downloaded it. If most of the reviews are good then only download that new update.
If you have done overclocking on your phone then there's a good possibility that your phone is getting hot due to it. If you haven't done overclocking then this cannot be the reason for your phone to get overheated. Overclocking works well with computers as you have the option to add an extra fan but the same cannot be done with a phone.
Mostly overclocking leads to heating of phone so if you want your phone to be overclocked then you have to bear the heat. Otherwise, undo overclocking and bring your phone back to its normal settings, this most probably solve your problem of overheating.
Water Damage
Just in case if your phone is exposed to water either by an accident or due to rain or due to sweaty pocket. Then there would be some water or moisture in your phone due to which your phone would be getting hot. And you might just be wondering that why does my phone get hot when you are not even doing anything.
The best solution for this is to dry your phone by taking off the back panel and the battery (if removable). You can also try a hair dryer but with caution and from a certain distance as it can also damage your phone.
Faulty Battery
If your phone gets hot as soon as you start using it then probably it's the issue with the battery. Now if your battery is constantly getting hot or get's drained quickly then it's also a sign that your battery is done for. Or if your battery has swollen and it doesn't sit flat on a flat surface then also your phone's battery needs to be replaced.
A normal battery has a recharge cycle of 300 to 500 times and after that, it needs to be changed. If your battery's recharge cycle is over then, it's good to replace the battery. Now if your phone is under warranty then get it replaced for free or buy a new one. If you have a phone which has a nonreplaceable battery then you have to go to a service center to get it replaced.
Faulty Charger
If your phone works just fine when it is unplugged but as soon as you plug it in it becomes hot then, your charger is malfunctioning. Or if you are using a low powered charger or fast charger to a phone which does not support fast charging. In all the cases you must change the charger you are using and your phone will work perfectly.
There is one more way to pick if your charger is malfunctioning, if your phone get's hot where the charger connects to the phone. Some companies do not give warranty for the charger but if your does then, get it replaced if it's under warranty. If your phone is not in warranty period then buy a new charger.
Other Reasons
Intensive Usage and Gaming
Do you play games for hours on your phone or do you use your phone for hours without giving it a rest? Answer these questions and you won't have to ask why does my phone get hot? Continuously using your phone uses a lot of RAM and CPU works overtime which may cause a delay for some functions to work. The delay and over working results into heat on your phone. Intensive gaming uses a lot of RAM and gives a lot of load on CPU and sometimes also uses mobile data which results in overheating.
In this case, you should try to give your phone some rest and let it be in standby mode for some time. Taking small breaks in between gaming will also keep the heating issue in control and you'll able to enjoy your game even more.
Over Wi-Fi usage or Mobile Data Usage
The more the usage of internet, the more the chances of getting your phone heated. If your phone is constantly connected to the internet via Wi-Fi or through Mobile Data then it's going to get heated. The faster the internet speed the faster your battery will drain and the phone will also get heated.
Try to switch off Wi-Fi connection or Mobile data when not in use and try to avoid using the internet all the time. Use it when most needed, this will increase battery life and will also keep the heat in check.
Do you download a lot of files or apps from non-trusted sources? If yes then there is a good chance that you have already got malware on your device which is the main cause of heating. Never download files from unknown sources and similarly never install apps from unknown sources. This will save your phone from unwanted problems.
If you already have virus/malware in your phone then delete/uninstall all the files and apps from unknown sources. If possible then download a good known antivirus and scan your mobile thoroughly with that.
Tips to avoid heating
So your phone does not have any of the problems mentioned above. In that case, you can follow the tips below to reduce heating of your phone. These general methods will always help you reduce phone'e heat and avoid questions like, why does my phone get hot?
Remove Unwanted Apps
Having a lot of apps only seems to be cool but it does not solve any purpose. Instead having many apps will only make your phone slow, sluggish and create heating issues. Even if you do not use all the apps then also they keep running in the background and keep using CPU. Moreover, a lot of apps will only acquire more storage space and nothing else.
Try to remove all the apps you do not use and you'll definitely see improvement in speed and reduction in heat.
Boost RAM
Whenever you close an app, it doesn't close properly and keeps running in the background, using RAM. So for that make a habit of cleaning RAM time to time and you can also download CM Cleaner to notify you for this. Apps like CM Cleaner keep a check on RAM and cache and also timely notify you to clean them. Doing such will keep your phone's CPU and RAM free, thus your phone won't get heated up.
Hot Weather
Weather is one thing which you cannot control but, you can certainly try to keep your phone away from the hot weather. Running of apps and other stuff already makes phone hot and on the hot weather on top of that will only make it worst. So try to keep your phone away and use it less in heat and direct sunlight. Just in case if you have to use your phone in heat and direct sunlight then, try to make it quick. Avoiding hot weather will certainly make a huge difference in the heating issue of your phone.
Avoid Thick Cases
Using a case is fine as it keeps your phone clean and also maintains it's resale value. But, you must understand that in a time of high usage your phone emits heat and it needs the place to emit it. If your case it blocking that heat then only your phone will get affected, so try to avoid a thick case. Try to get a case which can save your phone but at the same time, it also allows to radiate heat.
These are the main reasons due to which a phone get's heated up. If you follow these then you won't have to ask that question that why does my phone get hot? If this article helped you then tell me in the comment section. Even if you have any question regarding your phone getting heated then, also ask it in the comment section.

STUDENTS will be able to use Aussie technology to rate the quality of their learning, under a new proposal.
The technology, being tested at a handful of UK schools, records and analyses everything teachers say during a lesson.
The transcript is given to teachers and streamed to students via their iPads which they use to provide feedback.
University of Melbourne Associate Professor Janet Clinton, lead researcher on the "visible classroom" project, said talks were under way to bring the technology to mainstream Australian schools.
In Victoria its use has generally been confined to students with hearing problems or autism.
"This is going to change our understanding of teaching practices and the applications are multiple,'' Prof Clinton said.
"The opportunities for enhancement of the teaching and learning process for teachers and for students are phenomenal."
Eight UK primary schools in disadvantaged areas are involved in the year-long pilot, which aims to empower teachers and help students make the most of what they're taught.
Teachers are given a transcript of their lesson within an hour of its conclusion along with analysis showing how many questions they asked, how fast they spoke and the students' rating.
More in-depth information follows in subsequent weeks.
Students give "star" ratings based on eight questions developed in a renowned Bill Gates-funded project which developed measures for effective teaching.
They include whether teachers explained difficult concepts, whether they gave feedback when pupils made mistakes, and how well students understood concepts taught.
Results from overseas have proved positive.
"In Australia we hope the mainstream will pick it up — whether it's Catholic, independent or government and use it where necessary,'' Prof Clinton said.
Ai-Media chief executive Tony Abrahams, whose NSW-based company is working on the pilot, said trained "re-speakers" tuned into classes and repeated what teachers said so transcripts were uploaded accurately.
Parents were accessing the transcripts while teachers used them to brainstorm with colleagues or review issues in class.
"We are still discovering the ways that this is being used by teachers and students and we continue to be surprised,'' Mr Abrahams said.
