The FDA Report On Electronic Cigarettes
The FDA of America wrote a conclusive article of e-cigarettes called: "Evaluation of electronic cigarettes".
The analysis has become infamous because of it's large inaccuracies of the electornic cigarette. The report was created for NJoy, a company who was targetted by the FDA by their testing. It is important note that NJoy is under litigation with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
A detailed summary of the Food and Drug Administration's analysis is just below. credit has to go to Janci Chunn Lindsay, Ph.D. who picked apart the Food and Drug Administration's original review.
* The Food and Drug Administration's report did not present normal methods for a proper analogy with reference to the usage of a controlled device, talking about the number of cartridges used across all tests.
* The chemicals within of other similar nicotine products that have been FDA tested was not totally described with regards to the presence of tobacco nitrosamines (TSNAs) and other tobacco impurities that are found inside nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) tools at higher
* In the items that were trialed by the Food and Drug Administration, no important chemicals of concern in the report such as TSNAs and tobacco issues were able to be quantifiably found in liquid from NJoy's cartridges – they were all below limits of quantification (LOQ).
* The tobacco-related issues found in the NJoy's products were "present but at less than the level than the Nicotrol inhaler specification" – says the FDA analogy. The Nicotrol inhaler is a Food and Drug Administration approved device.
* There is no reasonable indication in the scientific literature that B-nicotyrine or cotinine are carcinogenic substances or are toxins to be concerned about. These were the only tobacco impurities found in small in the vapor phase of a handful of NJoy's products.
* The report doesn't properly reflect the real dose of nicotine delivered to the 'smoker' from the control Nicotol inhaler used as recommended by the manufacturer. In comparison, Njoy's devices delivered much less in the largest strength liquid tested, according to the Food and Drug Administration analysis.

After hearing about Falafel Drive-in on the board, elsewhere and from people I've talked to in SJ, recurring phrases were "San Jose institution" "best falafel in the world" "can't miss spot" "there since 1966" etc... It's even listed as #2 on tripadvisor.com for San Jose (that is my go-to site for hotels but I don't trust it on restos) I was curious about whether I would "get" what the regulars see in the place... this kind of hyperbole can lead to disappointment for an outsider.
So I picked up lunch there for group. I like this place! It's got some of the key ingredients that make local hole-in-the-wall institutions a blast... the "well-worn" location, the either especially personable or surly (in this case personable) staff, and most importantly, the "twist" that makes it unique, in this case the sweet red "secret sauce" on the falafels, baba gahnouj and hummus.
But, really, I hated the sauce. This seems to be part of what makes this place what it is, but, basically to me it was like baba ghanouj with ketchup. Didn't do it for me at all.
I tried the gyro, falafel, hummus, baba ghanouj and pita chips.
I'd say yes, the falafel were on par with the best I've had... they looked overcooked but in fact were wonderfully crispy outisde/moist inside. Indeed, this is excellent falafel.
The baba gahnouj itself was excellent, with a deep and rich smokiness. Hummus was pretty good.
I thought the pita chips were pretty much inedible. Coated with a very, very thick layer of spices (maybe za'atar?), almost black. Did not like them at all. The pitas which came with were also very much nothing special, so I was kind of missing a decent delivery vehicle for the very good hummus/baba... major bummer...
I'd go back for sure, with a better idea now on what to order. And, hold the sauce...

She comes first – part 13on March 11, 2015 at 12:01 am
I struggled with the writing to get to this strip… I had the next few strips in the arc in the outline, but getting Glenda here and interacting with George was difficult.
Then I stumbled into the bit where she immediately leaps to the idea that George is a screw up and tada! We have something that makes sense both character wise and it allows George to respond with his lines for panel two.
Drawing George where he's feeling super vulnerable is a nice change. He's typically super confident, arrogant, and pretty regularly a jerk… but when it comes to Zoey– he's a big softy.

Long time Mobafire user, First time posting a guide!
Malzahar is currently my favorite character to play in LoL
Malzahar is a 6300 IP Caster and hes worth every IP!
Pros / Cons
While Malzahar is very fun, he is also very difficult to play, but extremely rewarding. In this guide, I will give many tips on how to maximize the effectiveness of Malzahar's capabilities.
High AP ratio damaging spells
Powerful Nuke
Possible Multi-target Silence
Abilities have good range
AoE damage
Ultimate + combo is almost a guarenteed kill everytime its up
Easy to Gank
Summon Voidling are passivly controlled
Hard to hit with some of his abilities
No escape mechanism
His ultimate can be interupted
Summon Voidling
|The voidlings have hidden bonus attack damage equal to Malzahar's bonus attack damage
They also benefit from Malzahar's armor penetration.
Then when I get to my lane, I last hit a minion with Call of the Void and use my Summon Voidling to help me push the creep waves and get last hits all the way to the oppenents tower
This accomplishes 2 things.
- First by having the enemy tower kill your minions instead of the enemy champion you are messing with your opponents Creep farm.
- Second, Malzahar has quite the distance on his spells, when your oppenent is under his tower they fall into a false sense of security, feel free to harrass your opponent, if they go back to base your now free to help another lane by setting up a gank, this means that you need to let the lane know that your coming hopefully they let you know of any possible wards or hidden Champions.
- Use Call of the Void to start, making sure to hit all 3 of them, and yes you can.
- As soon as your Call of the Void hits, cast a Malefic Visions on one of the little guys. reason being, more damage is done this way plus some mana regen is given.
- Next, drop a Null Zone below the big Blue, by now you should have Summon Voidling
- Keep taking steps away from blue until he starts to walk back to his starting position (picture coming!)
- If your Summon Voidling hits him before this, then he will start to attack your Summon Voidling instead of you, and there you have it, you can kill Blue without taking any damage and have your Summon Voidling help you Damage!
Call of the Void
|Range to center of wall: 900
Wall width: 400 (estimate)
|I am going to admit that Malzahar is not that hard to play, but...
The better you become with this skill the better you will be at playing
- This skill hits HARD!
- This spell can also potentially silence multiple enemies
- This spell also provides Vision! Use it to check bushes instead of using your Face!
- In order for this to work, Call of the Void must be lined up with the bushes, because the belly of the spell does not provide vision. (Picture Coming!)
- Therefore, Spell shields like Nocturne's Shroud of Darkness, Sivir's Spell Shield, or a Banshee's Veil will only block the first portion of the damage and silence.
Null Zone
Range to center of AoE: 800
Radius of AoE: 250 (estimate)
- To Scare an enemy, this can be done by placing this spell in front of a champion chassing you or an ally, the spell itself will not do much damage but I find people give the Null Zone alot of respect. And this could slow their chase down.
- This spell can also be used at an enemy tower to prevent them from killing your creeps attacking their tower. This will get more damage done to the enemy tower.
- The best way to use this spell is to have an enemy, or a team full of enemies stuck on it! You Utli combo will have at least one enemy stuck for the duration of Nether Grasp on it(explained later).
Malefic Visions
|I like to use this spell in multiple situations, they are explained below:
- I recommend using this skill at the start of a creep wave, when the first creep is low health cast Malefic Visions, yhen auto attack the afflicted minion so that the spell will bounce through the wave, in doing so will restore your mana and get you last hits on creeps.
- If Malefic Visions is on a minion and that minion dies(or Champion) Malzahar gets both gold and experience for the kill.
- READ: you can get experience and gold even if your not in range of the creep or champion. This really helps your laneing.
- This means you only need to be in range of the creep you cast Malefic Visions on.
- If you have a Summon Voidling up, cast Malefic Visions on the enemy in your lane, this is maybe one of the best ways to easily harass your opponent, Your Malefic Visions will do damage to your opponent and your Voidling will also be attacking your opponent.
Nether Grasp
|Magic Damage Per Half Second: 50 / 80 / 110 (+0.26 per ability power)
This is your ult, the downfall to Nether Grasp is that you are stuck standing still for the duration of the spell.
The great news is that this spell; used in your combo will deal a huge amount of damage to your opponent, usually killing them, or helping your team get a kill.
Things you should know about Nether Grasp:
- You can use the summoner spell Ignite] during it.
- If you are stunned or the enemy has a Quicksilver Sash or a Banshee's Veil Your ult will either stop or not do anything at all
- To prevents this hit them with another spell first.
- If you use Nether Grasp on someone and they happen to Flash at the same time or use a skill with a similar effect, your ult will still keep them stunned and continue to do damage unless Nether Grasp is interupted, so you can have your Nether Grasp on someone who is well passed the max distance for the spell.
Skill Combo
This is the combo you want to use to ideally inflict as much damage as possible, and will usually result in someone dying haha
First you need to hit your Q Call of the Void
This will hopefully silence them and make it so that they cannot use any skills to escape or to do damage to you, in addition if you hit with Call of the Void you will have just inflicted a decent amount of damage, Do not use Call of the Void first if the opponent has a Banshee's Veil. You want to start your combo out with Malefic Visions First to get rid of the shield, Then start your Ulti Combo
Next hit your E Malefic Visions this is used just for extra damage but if your opponent dies, then Malefic Visions will jump to another close by enemy
Next you drop a W Null Zone below them, This spell does a % based amount of damage so if your opponent is stuck on a Null Zone reguardless of HP they will be hurting afterwards
Hit them with your R to finish off your combo, your opponent has just been silenced, and has taken a significant amount of damage, now with your CoolDown Reduction runes and items, when this combo is over you should be able to use you E Malefic Visions a second time if your enemy did no die.
If needed you can add in Ignite] to the combo after casting your Nether Grasp
There are conditions to using Ignite
The spell itself will not break your Nether Grasp Unless you are out of range for Ignite, If you do this, you will stop casting your Nether Grasp and move forward to try and cast Ignite
So keep this in mind when performing your Ulti Combo, Sometimes it is best to wait for Nether Grasp to finish and then hit Ignite and a possible Malefic Visions
My theory with Malzahar is this
The more often that your Ulti is up, and used, The more kills you get (or get KSed from you)
So lets look at his glyphs
Greater Mark of Magic Penetration
Greater Seal of Scaling Mana Regeneration
Greater Glyph of Scaling Cooldown Reduction
Greater Quintessence of Scaling Cooldown Reduction
|Magic Penetration is very good on just about any Caster
these runes in combination with your Sorcerer's Shoes] and your Mpen from Archaic Knowledge will really help Malzahar There is no other mark that will help as much as these.
|Mana per 5 helps with mana regen, these Seals are fine on Malzahar, getting the seals for AP is fine as well but they only add up to 9 AP... Its really not a huge difference.
|Here is what you want on an AP caster, Cooldown Reduction! This lets you cast your spells more often and as mentioned before, the more times you use your Ulti Combo on Malzahar the better.
|Again more CDR!
Summary: At level 18
- Cooldown Reduction +- 15.80%
- Magic Penetration + 8.5
- Mana Regen per 5 +11
This is a standard AP build
- Get enough points in the offence tree to get Archaic Knowledge for that sexy Magic Pen
- Get 21 Points into Utility
- Forget Perseverence the bonus is almost negligible
- The gold gained from Greed is also negligible
- Getting both Presence of the Master and Blink of an Eye Reduce the Cooldown on your Blink, which can be used both offensively and defensively
Skill Sequence
In order to maximize your Malzahar game play you need to:
- Start with Call of the Void as stated earlier this gets you a 3 stack on your passive and then you can Summon Voidling when you get to the lane with your first spell cast
- After a level of Call of the Void you need to max Malefic Visions; This spell is your creep wave pusher, this spell is your farming spell this spell is your mana regen! This spell also has a low cool down and can be used to harass
- At level 6 you want to have all of your skills for your Utli Combo, which is why you get a single level of Null Zone at level 4
More to come!

text: Sunday, February 02, 2014, 10:05 p.m. – the Lord Jesus put the song "The Letters" in mind. Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read Psalm 120 (NIV). Lying "Lying" means dishonest, insincere, and false. A lie is a false statement, appearance and/or impression, usually given deliberately in order to mislead or to deceive people into thinking something is true which is not true. When a word has "ing" on the end of it as a suffix, it denotes action or process, meaning this is ongoing, i.e. it involves the practice of telling lies. There are many different ways in which we can lie. It is not always with our mouths and it is not always directly, but can be indirectly, which is then termed deception, which is the practice of willfully and deliberately misleading or hiding the truth. Involved in deception can be cheating, betrayal, trickery, two-timing, double-crossing, conning, manipulating, scheming, misinforming, defrauding and/or deluding, etc. Many people deceive themselves into believing that if they don't tell an outright lie, and instead just withhold necessary and pertinent information which they are legally, ethically or morally bound to divulge, that they are not really lying. So, we can be self-deceived, as well. People who practice telling lies are good at justifying their lies, too, making excuses for why a lie is ok, even sometimes thinking they are somehow doing good by sparing other people's feelings. One form of this can be in half-truths, in which the liar tells part of the truth but withholds the other half. Slander is another form of lying, only it is intended to be very malicious and damaging to the individuals about whom the lies are told. We also lie when we are insincere in our remarks to people or when we use false flattery, thinking we are being kind, but lies are never kind. Or we can lie when we use joking and teasing as a form of saying how we really feel but yet denying it by saying, "I was just joking." Sometimes people use joking and teasing as a way of giving "hidden messages," which then the recipient must either ignore or try to decipher, which is not fair or kind. This, too, is a form of lying, because it disguises the truth in a way so as to get a message across while denying the truth of it. As well, if we give an impression of one thing while we know something else is the truth, then that is lying. We can also lie with our body language, involving eyes, lips, jaws, body movements, tone of voice, etc. So, just because we do not verbalize an outright lie does not mean we are not lying. [See Rom. 16:17-19; Eph. 5:3-13; and Col. 2:8, etc.] Liars The Bible has much to say on this subject, because God detests lies, and he is truth. We read in 1 John that if we claim to have fellowship with God or if we claim to love God and yet we continue to live lifestyles given over to sin, we are liars and we do not live by the truth. We cannot be in Christ and yet continue to walk (live) in darkness (in the ways of our sinful flesh). If we say we know Christ, but yet we do not make it a practice of doing what he says to do, then we are liars, and the truth is not in us (cf. Jas. 1:22). If we claim to love God and yet we hate our brothers or sisters, we are liars (See 1 Jn. 1:6; 2:4; 3:9; 4:20). So, here lying involves making it a practice of claiming one thing while doing another (the opposite). This is also called hypocrisy: "the false claim to or pretense of having admirable principles, beliefs, or feelings" while behaving otherwise (Encarta). A claim to know Christ, though, is not a claim to absolute perfection, yet it is a claim to be in regular communion with Almighty God, to love Jesus Christ, to walk in his ways and to do what he says (in lifestyle and in practice), and to love our fellow humans. If we willfully choose to do just the opposite in lifestyle and practice, then we are acting hypocritically and thus we are lying. People often practice lying because they are covering up for other forms of sinful, wicked and ungodly behavior. They are still living and walking in bondage to one or various types of sinful conduct which entangles them (See Heb. 12:1), and from which they need deliverance. People who are involved in addictive sinful behavior, for instance, in order to continue, will often become liars in the various forms previously mentioned above, not always just lying with their lips, but also through means of deception and withholding information, and/or via their body language, etc. Many of these people are so trapped in sin that they deceive themselves in varied ways into believing that they are not really trapped, and/or they excuse away their behavior and even their lies. The only alternative is to be honest, forthcoming, and to admit what they don't want to have brought into the light, and so they remain in the darkness, oftentimes believing their own lies and living in worlds of make-believe. People who live a lie, too, will oftentimes have a hard time separating truth from lies. [See Titus 3:3-8.] Save Me The psalmist called upon God to save him from lying lips and from deceitful tongues. I am practically sure that the psalmist was referring to those who were slandering him, i.e. to those who were speaking falsely against him for the intention to bring him harm and to destroy his reputation, so he was calling upon God in prayer for some type of deliverance. He may have been seeking some kind of justice, i.e. that the truth would come forward and that he would be exonerated, all in God's perfect timing. Or, perhaps he was asking that the Lord would give him peace within his heart, and that he would trust the Lord even in his time of distress at the onslaught of lies being perpetrated against him. Either way, he called upon the Lord in his distress over the lies, and he put his life in God's capable hands. Perhaps this is the situation some of us may be facing, too, and so we are calling upon God to intervene in some way, either in bringing the truth to light and/or in giving us inner peace so that we might have faith in God that he will work all things out according to his will and purposes and for our good – for those who love him and who have been called according to his purpose. Maybe we are not being slandered against, though, but we are being lied to (cheated, betrayed, etc.), and pertinent information is purposefully being withheld from us. Possibly the perpetrators of the lies are those closest to us, which makes it more personal and painful, or perchance they are more distant, such as politicians, salespeople, etc. Either way, when people willfully lie to us they are treating us unkindly and with disdain. And, if they lie to us to cover up other evil behavior they are involved in behind our backs, then the lies are just compounded by what we know or suspect may be behind the lies, and thus the hurt goes even deeper. And, so we must pray for healing of mind and emotion, i.e. for deliverance from the impact of the lies upon us. Or, it could be that we have a habit of telling lies ourselves, and so we need deliverance from that habit. I believe lies are usually characteristic of something more serious going on inside our hearts, i.e. we lie because we don't want people to know the truth about us, or because we are covering up other sins we don't want exposed, or because we purposefully intend to deceive others so as to accomplish some evil and wicked scheme we have going on. Maybe we are not habitual liars, though, but sometimes we give in to the temptation to tell a lie out of fear, and so we must pray and ask the Lord to save us from our own lying tongues, i.e. to bring us to a place of faith and trust in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of our lives, first of all, and then to allow the Spirit of God to do his work of transformation in our hearts. This heart change of the Spirit of God involves our cooperation, our submission, our yielding, and our doing what he says to do in his power and strength within us. Another aspect of God saving us from lying tongues, including our own, is that we must guard our own minds and hearts against such things by watching carefully the things we willfully take into our ears, minds, eyes and hearts. Some things we are exposed to are beyond our control, such as the psalmist suggested. Many others are not. We tend to become like those we are around, or we tend to become like those we give honor to in our associations and in our entertainment choices. Instead of enjoying the company of those who practice sin, or instead of being entertained by sinful practices of others (even though acted out), we should feel hatred toward sinful practices and should be grieved over the sins of others instead of tolerating and/or applauding their performances, and we should be moved to expose what is sinful instead. We should be so grieved over sin that we are moved to compassion toward the sinner and desire nothing more than to share the love of God's saving grace with them so that they, too, can be set free! Amen! The Letters / An Original Work / December 17, 2013 Based off Revelation 2-3 To the angels of all the churches write: These are the words of your Lord and your God. I know all your deeds, and your witness, too, And who holds to My words and tells what's true. I know all your hard work and your perseverance, Yet I hold against you: you've forsaken Me. Listen to what I say to you. You have people there who deny My name, And who put the cross of Christ up to shame. They entice the people to Me, profane, And their worship of Me is all in vain. They are so adult'rous as they chase their idols, And you put up with them easily enough. Listen to what I say to you. You give off an image of godliness, But what you present is so fraudulent, Or else you lack passion for Jesus Christ, So you look to others to tell what's right. I say turn from your sin, or you will face judgment. He who overcomes will have eternal life. Listen to what I say to you. I know your afflictions and poverty; How you suffer for your Lord patiently. Do not fear the devil and company. You be faithful to your Lord endlessly. I know all your weakness and your dedication. You have kept My Word and not denied your Lord. I will write on you My new name. http://originalworks.info/the-letters/

Hollywood would start Keith Sterett's story with a shot of his spindly arms raised in jubilation.
He scored 62 points for Alleluia Community School on Monday against the CSRA Warriors. He made 19 three-pointers on 41 attempts from that range.
Sterett played 20 minutes and made one two-point shot. He watched from the bench the rest of the game. That's a feat even if the area's best player did that against an all-freshman team.
"It was something I could not fathom," Alleluia teammate Joe Veihman said. "Nineteen threes? One game? Sixty-two points? Being on the court with a guy that hit 19 threes is a game that lives on forever."
But that's the wrong introduction to a senior class treasurer who wears the Shaquille O'Neal brand shoe found at Payless.
"These are my old shoes," Sterett said of his game-day gear. "I was going to throw them out but I got insoles from my dad. The insoles from his old shoes. I put his old insoles in these old shoes."
The label on the shoe is not what makes Sterett's shot soar.
The opening shot into his world has him in a Boy Scout uniform. Keith was going for a merit badge in medicine. He asked a friend in medical school to go over the process of giving a physical.
He laid Keith on the couch and tried to palpate his stomach. It led to a strange discovery and a professional physical.
His spleen was about five times the size of what it should be. Picture his stomach as America. The spleen should be cozy on the North Carolina coast. It stretched down and west all the way out to California instead.
"My mom said I looked two months pregnant," Keith said.
It led to a leukemia diagnosis in March 2004.
Keith's view of everything mentioned above has a twist. He does not dwell on basketball. He laughs at the thought of karma stealing away a year of his life only to fill his 19th year on Earth with glory days.
"If there's anything I learned from having cancer it is to do stuff," he said. "Do everything possible every hour of every day. That's the way to live a life."
FIRST QUARTER : Keith's work ethic was questioned his freshman year. No one thought he'd score 12 points in any one quarter of basketball like he did Monday.
It was the cancer. Keith describes it as pushing the accelerator down on a car out of fuel.
"Lazy or didn't care was what we thought," Veihman said. "He was tired a lot. He didn't want to play hard in the fourth quarter. We all felt like idiots when it turned out he had the cancer."
The merit badge quest led to a deeper personal trial. He was diagnosed with chronic myelogenous leukemia. Keith was told 98 kids across America are found with that each year. His survival rate was right at 70 percent.
When he began treatment in December of his sophomore year, the game plan was eight days of chemotherapy. The first few days were the best days.
"It was just like sit there and eat the time up," he said. "But then that's when it got terrible. Chemo basically rips up your cells. You pretty much throw up and go diarrhea eight, nine times a day. Just constant feeling terrible."
His Alleluia team assumed he was near death. They prayed. They did blood drives. They dedicated game after game to him. Then they sent him game tapes.
Keith has five brothers and two sisters. A strong family bond grew tighter through this.
His oldest brother Eric was the closest match for the bone marrow transplant Keith needed to survive.
"After my 14th day they brought Eric to Atlanta and drilled into his hip," Keith said. "They sucked out the bone marrow and infused it in me. Most of the time in the hospital came after transplant recovering and rebuilding my cells."
He was hospitalized for six weeks. After he left the hospital, he had to stay within a 30-minutes drive of the hospital until 100 days had passed after his transplant. He had to make sure the cancer was out of his system.
His mother Charlotte was at his side. She just happened to be a registered nurse.
SECOND QUARTER : Keith at one time called himself a "junmore."
The treatment for his leukemia cut short his sophomore year in December 2004. He didn't return to Alleluia until September 2005. He only scored 66 points in all of his sophomore year.
During those 50-or-so days after he left the hospital, that basement was his recovery room.
"I read a book and listened to music," he said. "I had a puzzle. A dartboard. I had an Xbox, but it was not the time. It's hard to play Xbox feeling terrible all day."
Keith would wake up every day and throw up. Then repeat. He had a Make-A-Wish experience as a result of his cancer treatment. He asked for a grand piano.
"I wanted something that wasn't going to be over in a day," he said.
"Pianos last a hundred years. Disney or shopping sprees or days with Michael Jordan last a day. A piano will still be around after that one moment."
His immune system was so compromised that cold sores on a visitor were a threat to his life.
Keith said the "Why me" moments lasted about a week.
"The lowest point physically was the hospital," he said. "The throwing up and diarrhea. The low mental point was the basement. Just me and Mom. I love my Mom. She's great. But think of every day just you and your Mom."
Keith woke up every day. Then ate a banana. He watched Tom and Jerry at 2 p.m. and then the Andy Griffith Show.
He'd try to stomach food and then go to bed.
"We'd also say prayers every day," he said.
It was a lot like the movie Groundhog Day. Except replace all the laughter with fear.
HALFTIME : Keith will not play college ball. His body type says chess club, not college prospect.
"I could maybe bench press 90 pounds seven or eight times," he said. "If you put me at half-court and told me to go to the hoop, I don't know if I could get it there."
He takes his three-point shots from about 24 or 25 feet out.
If you told him to place a bet on how many three-pointers he'd hit just shooting in the gym, he knows he'd be within five shots either way of 66 made shots out of 100.
Those totals were tracked in all of his team's early workouts. Veihman has seen him make 18, 19 three-point shots in a row.
"His shot is a slingshot," Alleluia coach Dennis McBride said. "You cannot believe it goes in. But it does."
But he's no complete player.
"He's not real mobile," McBride said. "He's got one slick move. He's got a head fake and a dribbles to the left or right."
Mr. 62 points already wants to be a dentist one day.
THIRD QUARTER : Keith's true junior year did not start out strong.
"I was weak after the cancer," he said. "I couldn't jump over one coffee table I was so weak."
Then he started to flash the streak shooting midway through his junior season.
"It was like he was different," McBride said. "I think the cancer must have had a lot to do with it. I told him before the season if he wanted to be a shooter instead of a power forward to work on his three-point shot. I imagine from the improvement he must have shot in his yard all summer long."
The Disney script would have him doing that silhouetted in front of a dying street light. It would be the dramatic dabble with truth.
Veihman lives on the same street. He knows Keith wasn't shooting 1,000 shots a day.
"I am not the most committed person to basketball," Sterett said. "I can't say cancer changed me into a better player. It didn't. What it did to was make me from a kid who didn't do a lot with his life into somebody who tried to maximize my life. Once I got cancer, I just started doing more because I wanted to do stuff before I maybe wouldn't always have that. Just living. I can't stand to not be doing something. Cancer affected my desire to just get better in every part of my life and not just basketball."
The Alleluia principal shares a clear view of the youth that walks the halls of his school each day.
"He had to dig deep to get through his trial," Alleluia principal Dan Funsch said. "He found a character he has to lean on and internal will and determination. He learned about overcoming. Once he got all that started, it was like a runaway train he could not stop."
Keith Sterett is now about as all-around as can be.
"He's essentially a self-taught musician although he's had some piano lessons," Funsch said. "I've seen him with at least three different musical instruments he plays with a high level of skill. It was piano, now he plays bass guitar and he picked up the harmonica a year ago. The lesson from his life is who knows what gifts you have. A lot of gifts are hidden from teens until they get the gumption to try new things."
FOURTH QUARTER : Keith had the whole gym cheering by the fourth quarter. The Warriors were congratulating him after each made shot. The gym exploded as he set the school record with his 15th three-pointer of the game.
The sight was touching. Veihman said "nobody can say they're human if they didn't get a good feeling inside" watching shot by shot go down."
Sterett's previous career highs were 33 points and nine treys in a game.
Sterett trails only Veihman nationally on www.maxpreps.com with his 144 three-pointers this year. Sterett's taken 438 three-pointers and just 66 two-point shots.
Veihman would have been the Angel most likely to hit 19 treys in a game.
Not Keith. But that's Keith in a nutshell.
No one really expects that out of the Student Council president.
"If I had to live my life over, I would have to include the cancer part," he said. "I know that's by no means logical. The reason why I say that is I wouldn't have all the friends I do now. It allowed me to become more outgoing and reach out and touch more of life. It woke me up."
The most satisfying part of the young man's life is the transformation along the journey.
He's went from the "Kid with the cancer card" in the eyes of his peers to the kid who's scored 62 points in a night.
They'll remember him for that just as much as the cancer at his school five years from now. Maybe even more so.
High school is all about initial impressions and labels. Just not with this kid.
"It's been great getting used to Keith becoming a player for us the last two years," Veihman said. "That's the Keith we all see now. It's not the kid who had cancer anymore. He's a teammate, he's a great player and a guy we need to win. We don't need to focus on that cancer thing with Keith now."

Here is Sterett's point production on Monday against the CSRA Warriors. His 62-point night ranks as one of the top scoring nights in area basketball history.
NEXT UP: Sterett's Alleluia Community School (18-9) team competes in the Georgia Association of Christian Schools. The Angels have a sub-state playoff game tonight at the St. Mary's on the Hill school against Cumberland Christian Academy. The boys will tip of at approximately 7:15 p.m.

YouTube/Warner Bros./"The Lego Movie"
Stoopid Buddy Stoodios is known best for creating the hilarious stop-motion animated series, "Robot Chicken." But it also imparted its crafty magic on one of the most popular movies of 2014.
Actor Seth Green and his fellow Stoopid Buddy founders, John Harvatine IV, Matthew Senreich, and Eric Towner, took time out from the numerous projects going on at "Stoodios" to give Business Insider some insight on how they created the eye-popping end credit sequence in "The Lego Movie."
"They wanted something pretty ambitious," Green recalls. "Stop-motion without a lot of compositing (combining two or more images)."
To pull this off, Brian Mah of visual studio Alma Mater and Ethan Marak at Stoodios, led the charge, and what they came up with was a less is more approach.
"We wanted to see how few [Lego] bricks we could use to build a train or a bat or a cop car," said Towner, who added that the creation of the whole credits sequence took two months to complete.
This made it possible for the sequences to go from an original estimate of 10,000 Legos being used to 3,000.
The credits show up in different Lego-made layouts as the film's theme song, "Everything is Awesome" by The Lonely Island, plays in the background. Here are a few:
The sequence took four motion control passes to complete, with three animators working simultaneously to increment hundreds of individual Lego bricks. With an average of four objects moving per set that totals around 10,000 animated increments to create.
"It's astonishing how much work goes into such a short sequence," said Senreich. "Animator Benny Zelkowicz had to move 150-plus Lego pieces per frame!"
Here's how the whole ending came out.

Is Android the right choice for your rugged enterprise application? Until recently, Android was only an option on consumer grade smartphones and tablets, which of course made it a risky choice for more demanding application environments — this is no longer true. As technology changes by the minute, a number of rugged device manufacturers have launched Android-based industrial mobile computers. One glaring benefit to the development and evolution of Android in rugged mobile devices is the high level of end user familiarity can make training easier and less expensive.

text: Al Held (1928 - 2005) was an American Abstract expressionist painter. He was particularly well known for his large scale Hard-edge paintings. After his first solo Abstract expressionist exhibition in 1959, Held's large-scale paintings of colourful, simple abstract geometric forms gained increasing recognition in America and Europe. In 1962, he was appointed to the Yale University Faculty Of Art (where he would teach until 1980). In 1965, the critic Irving Sandler curated the critically acclaimed Concrete Expressionism show at New York University featuring the work of painters Al Held and Knox Martin and the sculptors Ronald Bladen, George Sugarman and David Weinrib.

Picture: Adam Duritz of the Counting Crows appears on Good Morning America New York City, USA - 21.03.08
Counting Crows lead singer ADAM DURITZ has started his own record label.
The 42-year-old rocker had no plans to set up his own company until he came across two artists on social networking website MySpace that he wanted to sign.
Duritz discovered Chicago, Illinois-based punk-pop band BLACKTOP MOURNING and a New York City rapper known as NOTAR and decided to start his own label.
He explains, "The talent of Notar and Blacktop Mourning just blew me away and I wanted to be a part of their evolution."
Duritz is calling his "intimate boutique label" Tyrannosaurus Records and has scheduled an autumn (07) release for a CD from Notar.
The MR JONES singer also performs on four tracks of the Blacktop Mourning CD, NO REGRETS, which is scheduled to be released in May (07).

Scotland prop Geoff Cross has shaved off his epic beard and here are the results
Scotland prop Geoff Cross has been sporting a beard that Gordon D'Arcy would be very proud of but it's all gone now.
The Scotland and London Irish prop shaved off his signature beard after £10,000 was raised for charity.
The transformation is amazing and the money raised is going to children's charity Wooden Spoon which is dedicated to transforming the lives of disadvantaged children and young people across the British Isles through rugby.
His efforts are also helping raise funds for his former club-mate at Edinburgh, John Houston, who is seeking £50,000 to compete in the Wooden Spoon Arctic Rugby Challenge.

(NEW YORK) — As Brussels reels from Tuesday's horrific attacks — bomb blasts that left at least 20 dead in the subway and claimed another 11 lives in the city's bustling airport — travelers in America remain on edge.
When a bomb-sniffing dog alerted on a bag at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport Wednesday morning, screaming passengers scattered, some under the mistaken impression that there was an active shooter in the terminal.

The airport police later said the suspicious luggage was just medication and posed no threat to passengers.
Like many other airports across the country, Hartsfield-Jackson beefed up its security posture in the hours following the bombings in Brussels. Nationwide, police carrying rifles and leading canine units have been patrolling airport lobbies, like the one in Brussels where the suicide bomber detonated.

But though the presence of uniformed officers may deter would-be terrorists, areas like ticket counters and lobbies — which are not secured by the TSA — are notoriously difficult to protect.
"That's always been an area that has been a problem because people congregate, people are carrying their bags, they're wearing coats. It's just an area that makes it very hard to know if something is out of whack, if someone doesn't belong there," said former FBI special agent Richard Frankel, now an ABC News consultant. "Could something slip through? Yes."
John Cohen, a former acting under-secretary at the Department of Homeland Security, noted: "For years, we have devoted a lot of attention to what we can do to try and stop people to bring dangerous items into airplanes."
"We've built up checkpoints and screening procedures and screening technology — but the front of the airport is vulnerable. Someone can walk in the door with an explosive device or a firearm and can create a lot of havoc and a lot of injuries for people who are waiting to go into the other part of the airport," Cohen said.
But even as we mourn those lost in Brussels, "we have to remember there is an extensive security apparatus in place in this country," Cohen added.

The Nth Artist
Where The Brown Fern Grows
Yeah, I think Deadpool may be staying in the comic even after the convention.
Substance and Style
Lazy artist powers… ACTIVATE!
Seriously, do you like the chibi-esque version of me?
This Totally Is Not The Same Comic As From Before
See, it's completely different than this comic. Totally original.
Pool's Closed
This… actually happened. My panels are awesome, but for some reason I always wind up being the less-interesting option compared to something else going on. This time, there was a swimsuit contest at NMACon, and Deadpool – wearing just a mask and a speedo – participated. In all his glory.
Mike took video of it.
If you watch it, you die in seven days.
Mission Accomplished
Sorry for last week's interruption… my teeth are somewhat better, so let's resume the storyline!
Good Acoustics
I put a call out for some cameos, and got two immediate responders… so, in panel 2, based on her own wonderful drawing in my style, we have Jaydot Sloane (who also just started her own webcomic this week on http://www.vanitygames.com/)… and in panel 3, Juan Ochoa puts in an appearance.
If you want to have chances to have me randomly draw you, maybe you should be following me on Google+ too… and if you're not on G+… why not?

Expunging That Nasty Maryland Conviction
The Annapolis Patch has a blog connected with it called http://annapolis.patch.com/blogs/the-annapolis-dui-and-criminal-defense-blog The Annapolis DUI and Criminal Defense Blog. A recent article talked about getting your conviction expunged from court and police records in Maryland. In general any court record or police record currently maintained which was in existence before July 1 1975 may be expunged.
See the article here; http://annapolis.patch.com/groups/the-annapolis-dui-and-criminal-defense-blog/p/getting-convictions-expunged-in-maryland-what-you-need-to-know
When I briefly worked at the Wicomico County Detention Center, as an accountant, expunged records were hell on my record keeping, happily it didn't happen that often. Matter of fact I had never heard of the word expunged before going to work there (government job - maybe employed is a better word to use than worked). It means erased, like it was never there. To give you an example each month financial accounts are balanced and totals are produced and reported, say six months pass and a State audit team arrives and they look thru the detail of the totals reported and they don't add up. The reason is the expunged records also remove any financial transactions that person may have had. As an example one month you have ten inmates with a total of a thousand dollars in their accounts. You report the one thousand dollars. The next month an inmate records are expunged so the audit team looks at the one thousand dollars reported and they only see nine inmates whose accounts total up to nine hundred dollars so where did the extra one hundred dollars reported come from and more important where did it go? Since no one in government communicates with one another the accountant has to bust ass to find out what happens. Happily for the accountant even tho the records are expunged there are enough hard copy printouts archived and available with the expunged inmate name and financial records to explain to the auditors what happened.

The New House on North Second Street
These prefab homes are amazing. One day you ride by and there is a foundation and the next day there is a house sitting there.
The November 2013 Mayor and Council Meeting
The Mayor and Council Meeting November 4th 2013 started at 7 PM and was over with by 8:05 PM ( see you could have attended the meeting and still made it home for most of the prime time TV shows). Due to illness in the family Vice-Mayor Pase was unable to make the meeting. My usual disclaimer is I am not a member of council and what I write is my personal views and opinions. In no way should this be considered minutes of the meeting. It is also just the parts of the meeting I want to comment on. If you want a more accurate accounting then attend the meetings or buy a newspaper, this is a blog.The bathrooms at Gordy Park are closed and winterized for the winter.
The Mayor and Council agreed the new traffic pattern at North 8th street is working well.
The major item of the night was a grant received from the state for a policeman at the Delmar High School and Middle School. Referred to as a School Resource Officer or SRO the person is newspeak for a policeman. I had mentioned this grant last month in my blog http://delmardustpan.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-delmar-delaware-council-meeting-for.html
A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was reached with the State, School district and both towns. It was agreed the state would put up the bulk (75%) of the grant and the remaining three entities would split the cost at one third each. The amount the state supplies would decrease each year for three years at which time any state support would go away and it would be up to those three entities to decide what they were going to do then. Sounds innocent enough doesn't it? Councilman Littleton, whom I greatly admire because he doesn't mind speaking his mind and isn't afraid of being labeled the "bad" guy, again spoke up and asked why was the town of Delmar Delaware involved in this at all? This is a school issue and the town should not be paying anything for it. He then explained his position. Long story short when the motion to accept this grant was made the motion died because no one would second it. I don't know how in the technically of government if this means the Town of Delmar Delaware has refused the grant and the state will be so notified or if this is now in limbo. As Councilman Littleton pointed out it is not like the town does nothing as the daytime policeman is suppose to stop by the school at random times and walk thru the school checking on the place.A non-resident operating a business outside the town of Delmar came before the Council to publicize his business and to try and see if the council could encourage the Delmar High School to support his business which they are not doing currently.

Hello! These tags were great! Thank you for offering something editable -- just what I needed! Very easy to work with the file and create what I needed for my son's party. I appreciated that I could work on them on my home computer then email them to myself and print them out self-service at the print shop with a better printer for a nicer result. Your tutorials are also very helpful.
Michelle, Texas
These invites are perfectly "cool" for my 10 year old's Laser Tag Birthday. Simone was so great to work with. We live a hectic life, and she made the process such a breeze. Even crediting my account for an item I purchased but did not need. I will definitely be coming back to this shop for future purchases. Thank you, Simone!
Andrea, Michigan
This design has so many details that can be personalized. I love the zip file so when I sent it to Office Depot for printing, it was way to tell them how many pages I needed for each file. Also, Simone takes the time to make sure everything is what you expecting. You can't beat customer service like that.

Simone, you are a life saver. I'm a kiwi but live in the US. So we've just started back at school, and I've just begun working part-time. My daughter really wanted a Paris themed party and had grand ideas of passport, boarding passes, etc and I had no idea when I'd be able to fit in the designing. When I found your files online I was sooooo relieved. They are beautifully done and we're having so much fun creating our party using them.

Thank you for your great work. The families loved the printables as I did!!
Annabell, Florida
Thank you! I love this way of being able to edit the items to what I want them to say rather than trying to explain it to you and having you do extra work. It is going to be perfect for my sons birthday. Thanks again!

NEW YORK — Moments before Frank Ocean took to a stool at Manhattan's Terminal 5, a surprise tornado threatened the city, blowing stacks of free newspapers around like autumn leaves and mussing the carefully coiffed 'dos of the fashionable girls that had queued up along 56th Street.
But if storm clouds on a summer Thursday had dampened his spirit, Ocean definitely wasn't showing it.
"I wanna get into something a little more familiar," he said after kicking off with a Sade cover. Dressed in a color-blocked button-down and rocking his signature bandana like a crown, Frank crooned the oh-so-fitting opening lines of "Thinkin Bout You," singing, "A tornado flew around my room/ Before you came / Excuse the mess it made."
As the ladies went wild for that toe-curling falsetto, Ocean's Odd Future cohorts, including Tyler, the Creator and verbal spray-gun Earl Sweatshirt cheered their boy on from the balcony, a show of support that should have come as no surprise given their reaction to Frank's recent confession about his love of ... umm, bagels. (Never mind that the rowdy group had their own show to perform right afterward, a few blocks down at the Best Buy Theater.)
But that was the curious thing, nothing had changed since a timid Ocean staged a show at N.Y.'s Bowery, and yet everything had changed. Frank Ocean makes songs for women, but also men now. Still, the girls were there screaming (one fan even told her squealing friend to "take a deep breath"); the boys were there, too, some on date nights and a few who maybe discovered a new role model.
The 24-year-old's faithful fans hadn't abandoned him in light of his admission that his first love was a man he met at 19. In fact, on Thursday night, they seemed intent on making it clear to him (and each other?) that it hadn't shaken their devotion. This was a moment, not simply for the Def Jam artist but for music too.
"Some people made a big deal. It was my life you know?" Ocean told the crowd midway through the hour-long set, alluding to his headline-making Tumblr post. That served as his segue into the gender-defying "Bad Religion," on which the honey-voiced singer laments an unrequited love with same-sex pronouns in place. It wasn't a coincidence that the most extended round of applause followed.
Concertgoers voiced their approval again and again, gleefully singing along with Ocean on the "you're on my mind, boy" lyrics from Channel Orange's "Forrest Gump." But the "Novacane" singer knows his crowd, crouching down at times to the ladies in the front row or flashing a flirty smile.
Frank went on to cuts from his critically acclaimed Nostalgia, Ultra, including a swagged-out "Swim Good" and a lilting new arrangement of his Eagles-sampling "American Wedding" that had listeners rapt. The hands went up, though, at the sold-out show for the brand-new "Super Rich Kids" (though Earl didn't come down for his verse) and the expansive "Pyramids."
As Ocean sang his hook from the Throne's "Made in America," it was impossible not to feel like he had made good on the dream.
Share your reviews of Frank's show in the comments below!

Ukrainian president signs law on State Investigation Bureau
It has taken the president a while to sign the document since its adoption.
President Petro Poroshenko has signed the law to establish the State Investigation Bureau, which was passed by parliament on 12 November 2015.
He did this during a news conference on the results of 2015 when he was asked why high-profile corrupt officials of the previous government had not been punished.
He said that he signed the law despite having some reservations.
The State Investigation Bureau is an executive agency tasked with prevention of organized crime, counteraction to terrorism and other grave violence.

"He doesn't mean to hurt me-he just loses control.""He can be sweet and gentle.""He's scared me a few times, but he never hurts the children-he's a great father.""He's had a really hard life..."

In this groundbreaking book, a counselor shows how to improve, survive, or leave an abusive relationship, with: € The early warning signs€ Nine abusive personality types€ How to tell if an abuser can change, is changing, or ever will€ The role of drugs and alcohol€ What can be fixed, and what can't€ How to leave a relationship safely
Having worked with abusive men for 15 years, Bancroft explains clearly what causes such behavior, describes the nine abusive personality types (from verbal abuser to batterer), and outlines the "warning signs." (LJ 8/02) Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
