The "Walk-and-Turn" DUI Test
The Walk & Turn is a "test" that is often used by police officers to detect impairment from someone they suspect is DUI. I say the word "test" in quotes because it really should be referred to as an "exercise" instead. Calling it a test makes it sound to a jury like something you can pass or fail. You do NOT want a jury to think that. And trust me, EVERYONE, even Olympic gymnasts, can fail this "test" dead sober.
If you are reading this, chances are you have already been arrested and accused of DUI. And more then likely, you have already submitted to the field sobriety exercises, including the Walk & Turn, and "failed." It's obviously too late now to take the advice of NEVER submitting to the exercises. Instead, you should read what is written below very carefully, and contact an experienced attorney in your state for help.
What to Expect
The Walk & Turn is a divided attention test. That means that not only are you being evaluated on your ability to perform the actual walking and turning, but also how well you are able to listen and follow the directions.
When performing the Walk & Turn, you will be instructed to take nine steps heel-to-toe along a straight line. You will then turn on one foot (usually by taking small steps in a circle with your other foot) and take nine steps back down the line heel-to-toe. It may sound relatively simple but it's a LOT harder then you think.
Designed for failure
Although it may sound easy, the Walk & Turn is actually designed so that people will fail it. Walking a line heel-to-toe tight-rope style is not something you had to do in order to get your driver's license from the DMV when you were 16! So why would you do it now? And what the heck does it have anything to do with your ability to drive a car? Easy – you shouldn't, and it DOESN'T!
Listed below are reasons why the Walk & Turn is designed for you to fail – and thus why you should NEVER consent to doing it:
1. They "test" you right from the start. That's right, while they are giving you the instructions, before the test has even begun, the police will tell you to put one foot on the line, with the other foot directly in front of it (like you are walking on a tight-rope in the circus). They tell you to remain in that uncomfortable position while they explain to you the instructions (how many steps you are going to take, when and how to turn, etc.). The instructions can last up to a few minutes, and often the officer will demonstrate for you what you will be asked to do. What they are NOT telling you, however, is that if you move your feet from that heel-to-toe position during the instructions, they will count that against you. That's right – they count it against you as a "clue" or "cue" – an indicator you are impaired. And i'm not talking falling down wasted. If you even move your foot from that abnormal stance back to a normal, standing position, the officer will mark it down – and actually say that you "lost your balance" during the instructions.
Wait, what's a "clue" or "cue"? A "clue" (or sometimes called a "cue") is an indicator that the suspect cannot perform the Walk & Turn to "standards". There are a total of 9 possible clues, based on 8 indicators of impairment that are being scored. If the officer observes any of the following, they will mark it down and it will be counted against you. It only takes 2 clues to "fail" the test. They are listed below:
- Cannot keep balance while listening to instructions.
- Starts before instructions are finished.
- Stops to regain balance while walking.
- Fails to touch heel-to-toe. (even if you fail to do so just once, or the entire exercise, it is counted against you the same way).
- Loses balance while walking/steps off line. (if you step off the line even just one small step, they will say you "lost your balance")
- Uses arms for balance. (the natural thing to want to do while walking a "tightrope" is put your arms out helicopter style. But you can't.)
- Does not perform turn correctly.
- Takes the incorrect number of steps.
Additionally, the officer has an option of saying "Cannot do test" (which he will mark if you step off line three or more times or if he feels there is some reason you are unable to perform the test at all).
Thus, even if you perfectly walk a straight line heel-to-toe and turn perfectly and take the correct number of steps, you will still "fail" if you move back to a normal standing position during the instructions and start the test before you are told to do so. How does that sound fair? How does that mean you can't drive? It isn't! It doesn't!
2. Monkey See, Monkey Do. Unfortunately, most of us learn by doing, not watching. And most unfortunate, it is inherent human nature for people to mimic or "ape" each other while engaged in conversation. Thus while you are being explained instructions for how to do something, it is only natural that you will move your body in such a way as to actually start doing the behavior. And if someone is demonstrating something to you, you naturally will want to make movements with your body to mimic that behavior as well. Why is this bad you wonder? Because remember the "clues" from above? Starting the exercise before you are told is a clue, and so is moving out of the starting position before the instructions are done. Thus, if you (like any other normal SOBER person would naturally want to do) move to mimic the officer, you already will have "failed" the test before you even got a chance to try it. Sounds fair right? WRONG!
3. Sometimes a REAL line isn't even used. If a real line isn't used, what is used? An IMAGINARY line. Wait, what??!! Yep – even though the guidelines the officers' are supposed to follow say that a real solid painted line or crack in the road is to be used, some jurisdictions allow the officers to "test" you for the Walk & Turn using an imaginary line. Now how they can tell if you stepped off an imaginary line is beyond me, but it's actually done. I told you it was designed for people to fail!
4. It's natural for people to "fail" something on the first try. Chances are you have never in your life done the Walk & Turn exercise, unless you have been previously suspected of DUI. Imagine this scenario – you are pulled over suspected of DUI, you are nervous and want to cooperate with the officer so you agree to submit to the test. You are on the side of a major highway, on a narrow shoulder, with cars zipping past you. It's windy. Maybe it's cold or raining. It's late at night. You can barely hear the officer's instructions and you are so nervous its difficult to pay attention. Do you REALLY think you are gonna perform this "test" perfectly under those conditions the first time you ever try it? Of course not! Just like the first time you swing a baseball bat, you will not hit a home run. You will strike out!
5. The police don't ask you the right questions. Before the police are supposed to even ask you to submit to the exercise, they are supposed to ask you about any illness or injuries you may have. The problem is that not only do many of them never ask, but the ones that do ask you, ask the WRONG question! They will say something like "do you have any injuries or illnesses that would PREVENT you from being able to perform this test." The reason why this is the wrong question is because it doesn't matter if you are unable to do the test at all, it matters if there is something wrong with you that would AFFECT YOUR ABILITY to perform the test at all. Because if it does, they need to know that and take that into account when assessing your ability to perform the test and thus your ultimate level of impairment. Think about it this way – if you have only one leg, that would be something that would prevent you from doing the Walk & Turn at all. (Obviously). But what I bet you didn't know, however, is that the guidelines actually say that certain people are not supposed to ever do this test. People who are overweight or have had certain knee or back surgeries are not supposed to do this test. People taking certain medications. The problem here is that unless the officer knows a reason why you shouldn't take the test, he is going to give it to you and you will fail, and he will arrest you. 9 times out of 10 the officer will never know about a condition or medication because he will not ask and you will not otherwise know to tell him.
6. The Walk & Turn is actually a "divided attention" test too. That's right. Like I said before – even if you perform the actual walking and turning perfectly, if you start before you are told or do not pay attention to the instructions and take the wrong number of steps, you will fail.
7. Many things can affect your balance, and will, especially under the stress of a DUI investigation. We've all seen the Olympics and observed first hand how gymnasts under pressure choke and fall. Like I said above, in the stress of being pulled over and investigated, you will not be the most limber and focused. You will want to cooperate, but you will not be able to as much as you'd like to think. Plus, other things could interfere – like if you have an ear infection, for example. People with ear infections have problem with balance, and will not be able to perform the Walk & Turn successfully. Especially, late at night, in the rain, on the side of the highway, in front of flashing police cars, etc.
8. Shoes Matter. Oh boy do shoes matter! Imagine doing this funny little balance beam act wearing 4 inch stilettos. If the officer is nice enough to allow you to remove your shoes, barefoot on rough gravel isn't much better, either. There could be glass in the road! And gentleman, this applies to you as well. How often do you go to the bar or out late to an event and wear nice dress shoes? Imagine how much harder wearing them would be while doing these silly balancing acts!
9. An abnormal way to "test" for "normal" behavior. How often do you walk down the street heel-to-toe in a straight line for 9 steps exactly, turn taking baby steps and walk 9 steps heel-to-toe back where you just came from? I'm guessing never. And what would you think if you were driving down the street and you saw people walking this way? YOU would probably think THEY were drunk! Sober people don't walk like that, ever! So why are the police asking you to do it to find out if you are sober? Good question. I have absolutely no idea. It doesn't make sense. Your ability to walk a straight line has nothing to do with your ability to successfully drive a car. Plus, sober people fail the Walk & Turn all the time – not being able to do it means you can't do it, it doesn't automatically mean you are drunk. My grandma can't do it – she has fake knees and arthritis, but that doesn't mean she is wasted all the time.
So basically, think twice before taking the "test." And if you already have, contact an experienced DUI attorney in your state for help defending your case.

I printed a PDF with Reader 9.4 today and it worked fine. I was prompted to update to X, which I did. Now when I open PDFs in Reader X, the PDF opens, but when I scroll down, the PDF "freezes" and up at the top of the application window I see "Adobe Reader (not responding)". Printing before I scroll (and experience the freeze up) results in a partially printed document. I unstalled/reinstalled/restarted many times and also disabled "protected mode at start up" in Preferences, as suggested in other question threads.
I finally uninstalled X and reinstalled 9.4 at the suggestion of another post. Now I experience this problem with Reader 9.4, where I didn't experience it a few hours ago. It seems to me that whatever bug was in Reader X has remained on my hard drive and is now affecting my new installation of 9.4 What do I do?
Windows 7 Home Premium
I would like to echo the same as jtierney9845 in the posting of 4-13-11. When I try to save, the browser immediatly shows (not responding). I also removed Adobe X.0.i and put 9.4 back on and I have the same issue with 9.4. I can not save the file. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium. I can save on an older computer which is running 9.4 but I really need to be able to save on the current computer. I am using IE as my browser. I have thought about using Foxfire but it looks l ike there might be a similar issue with it from the postings on this forum. Hope you can help with this.
You can always try the following:
Run this fix from Microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Uninstall all traces of any versions of Reader.
If you want to reinstall Reader, download its full installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

"Is everything broken?"
The hotel was conveniently located near the Branson landing. However, when we arrived to the hotel the lady at the front desk explained to us that the hot tub was broken, and the pool was closed (this was the only reason I chose this hotel). She did upgrade our room to a suite, however the suite was small, and only had one bed, and one pull out couch […] which was very uncomfortable. The blankets they had felt like itchy cardboard.

Room was clean, staff was courteous. Bed wasn't the most comfortable, but overall not too bad. Just a short half-mile walk to Branson Landing, at a cheaper rate than most other surrounding hotels. Some pretty steep inclines and declines, so take that into consideration if you're planning on walking. The surrounding area seems safe. Didn't take advantage […] of the free breakfast, but it sounded really nice. Other than a couple bars at Branson Landing, historic downtown Branson is a ghost town after 11pm, at least on a Thursday, so keep that in mind. Definitely not a "nightlife" area, but it worked for what we wanted to do. قراءة المزيدتعليق أصلي من أحد نزلاء Hotels.com

It is […] 3 ft all the way across so they could swim by themselves and touch. It was indoor and headed. They give you free breakfast and it was a mix of muffins and hot food like biscuits and gravy.

Loaded Dice: What's My Motivation?
We've all been part of one of those games. The kind where characters come together during the goblin raid, where they watch each other's backs through the tense nights sneaking into the ogre's cave outside of town, but when it comes time for the next part of the adventure, the party shatters. The rogue steals everything that isn't nailed down, the barbarian starts attacking anyone who comes within sword's reach, and the cleric refuses to heal anyone unless they bribe her. What happened? Well, 9 times out of 10 it's a problem of character motivation.
What's Motivation?
Character motivation, to put it bluntly, is why characters do what they do. It isn't enough to simply be a skilled swordsman, a crack rifle shot, or a talented magician. These are skills; they are things a character is capable of. Motivation deals with what characters want, and what drives their actions. It isn't often covered in character creation, but it's just as important as min-maxing attributes and feats in the long run.

Probably not. College and masters programs are worthwhile. However experience is really much more important. You will get very little return for the cost if your just starting your career. Unless your college offers a discount because you already took your undergrad there. However this isn't the best because going to the same school concurrently isn't viewed as highly as separate institutions. Finally if you needed a masters as part of a job, your employed will normally contribute. Might as well save the money.

Please do not listen to these people. A Master's degree will 100% help open up job opportunities in the CJ field. Bachelor degrees are becoming more and more common, so you need to stay ahead of everyone else. Besides, you could always work in the field while getting your Master's. I work full-time in the field and I'm in school full-time. It can be done. If you want to work for the FBI, then you pretty much would need a Master's in order for them to even look at you. Trust me, a master's degree is the way to go.

No.......not in this economy........you need experience.......and........
There are thousand and thousands of talented, experience people on the street due to the economy…the competition for any job is extreme. …people will do anything for much less just to feed their kids……..I don't expect it to get any better before 2012……sorry……

You know what? A sheriff's OPINION on cannabis matters about as much as my OPINION on cannabis does. They enforce the laws (right or wrong) and that's it, they do NOT have a say in what the laws are or how they are written.
I'm not trying to be disrespectful here, but what makes them think that it matters how the ISP or sheriffs feel about this issue? How about (like in CO and WA) what the people want? Mike Pence says he (personally) is against legalization, so what! If his constituents want it -- that is what matters!
It was nice to see the ISP super have some courage to speak out about this and show a voice of reason! Sad to see how fast our LEO's show this red state's mentality is stuck in reverse...

Irony|Gigabyte GTX 670 OC|1176/1557|P10002|AMD FX 8350 @4.7ghz http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/5159441 Edit: made it to 10000! with 2 to spare; lol That puts me at second nvidia on the list it looks like. Metalracers Asus 680 above me
thanks. Thats more of what i was wanting to know is GPU wise, i know the CPU is holding it back, got a 8350 in the mail to fix that i hope
Awesome, yea poor old 965 will be moved to a different PC after this. Also the benchmark showed that it was getting around 60FPS most of the time and thats what i was aikming for to be able to play DX11 games at that FPS or more.
fastest 560ti but daft time/date rule will stop you adding it. http://hwbot.org/submission/2310719_marsey99_3dmark11___performance_geforce_gtx_560_ti_5666_marks http://hwbot.org/submission/2264854...rformance_geforce_gtx_460_(256bit)_4422_marks fastest 460 1gb too.
I'm now very tempted to install my GX460 and show you what it can do I don't usually like to big headed about anything but my GTX460 is a beast of a card! Any chance you've got results from 3DMark Vantage?
Haha, I know! Was working in gpu clocks and forgot to crank the cpu up! Problem is I can't switch cards as the 7970 x doesn't fit in the haf xb so im out a pc when Im benching the 680. I like to play BF3 while I bench ambient!
Thanks! No you dont ! Was hoping to take 1st place for 680's for a minute... but Im afraid the card is topped out on the core (ambeint), and I dont have 6 cores at 5.2GHz either. I need to get the pot out already... its been too long!
Thats about where I was with mine with my 1090T and 670 at stock speeds. OC ur card a bit, thatll help a lot
Just installing 3DMark again after having to reinstall Windows due to it not wanting to install the NVidia drivers properly, will give results soon hopefully. EDIT, So it turns out I can't do a proper run as my new RAM sucks and don't like me clocking my CPU and running at different multi from stock so it seems I'll be looking into some new RAM - that depends on how the Crosshair IV from Moonpig will change things I will post back sometime next week though with some results
Reinstalled Windows 8 but could anyone explain why I'm scoring 800 points less with the same overclocks and drivers?

This is a place to go and eat traditional food from Alto Adige. Quality is good and the place is casual and relaxed. Prices are just good and value for money very good. Is located in the center of Bolzano and surely worths a visit.
This is a place to go and eat traditional food from Alto Adige. Quality is good and the place is casual and relaxed. Prices are just good and value for money very good. Is located in the center of Bolzano and surely worths a visit.
The meal started out with a rather long (even for Italy) wait while they found the one hostess that could speak English, but that wasn't their fault. They seemed quite busy that evening, so I can't blame them for the wait. They also did seem to quarantine the Americans in the far corner of the restaurant, rather than where most... More
This is a very old stube in the centre of the old town. The food is not expensive and good. The menu has traditional food from South Tyrol and a variety of other Italian meals. It is well worth the visit.
Do not expect any high-class menu. In this restaurant you get local, authentic food, and the restaurant is visited by many locals!
I ate here two nights in a row with a wide variety of friends. On both evenings everyone was pleased with what they ordered, whether it was an Italian or a Tyrolean dish. The service is very good, the portions are large, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming.
Also known by it's German name: Weisses Rossle (White Pony in English). I lead group hiking tours, and I always start with dinner here. This is authentic Tyrolean food, very well prepared, with excellent service and atmosphere. Prices are in line with the quality.
well worth the drive....... the food is Austrian Wholesome food, you sit down oredr and eat ... lots of meat saurkraut oooh a weiss beer....... we really enjoyed this place....... it soon fills up.. so you may get joined by other couples at your table, but as i said you go to eat!!!!
get the lasagna with a glass of house red, can't go wrong!
This place is packed by the way. The prices are amazing for Bolzano. 1/2 liter of house wine was only 4,40 euro, and meals were only 10-15 euro. Had the goulash and polenta, wife was happy with her spaghetti carbanara. Advertised homemade tiramisu which was less than 4 euro and tasted great. Waitress spoke German, English, and Italian fluently and... More
This restaurant filled in when our tour group could not be accommodated elsewhere. The wine soup and the ravioli primi were outstanding and worth a return visit. Unfortunately, the main course consisted of three or four kinds of pork, with a heavy bacon crusted dumpling. The dishes we saw in the dining room coming through looked and smelled delicious, so...

Out here in the West where old means almost anything that happened before World War II, Santa Fe is the exception. It was established in 1610 by settlers from New Spain to the south. And although residents like to talk about ''descendants of the conquistadors,'' the folks who came up the Camino Real from Mexico City in the train of Juan de Onate were already two or three generations removed from their Spanish antecedents and their blood was thoroughly mixed with that of the Mexican natives their fathers and grandfathers had conquered.
That mixture showed in their food, as it continues to. From native Pueblo blue corn and pinto beans to Mexican chili peppers and tomatoes to Spanish lamb, cheese and wheat bread, Santa Fe cooking is a glorious amalgam of all the groups who have passed through and settled here in the northern Rio Grande valley below the peaks of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.
The most recent group of interlopers consists of the trendy from both coasts, according to native Santa Feans who have watched uneasily in recent years as real estate prices soared and downtown streets jammed. Nonetheless, the easy-going charm of the place shines through the fashionable hype, and not least in the cooking: Whether it's fresh trout rolled in cornmeal and with green chili sauce and toasted pine nuts ($7.25) served for breakfast at Pascual's; robust lamb fajitas and a cold bottle of Negra Modella beer at Angelina's in Espanola; a burrito stuffed with spicy grilled meat bought from the wagon at the northeast corner of the plaza and eaten on a park bench, or the soft, silky texture and subtle sweetness of the flan at Rincon del Oso, Santa Fe offers some remarkably satisfying food.

Unfortunately we only had one night stay in Stanley village motel, but what a great place it was! We were greeted by the friendly owner at reception, and our room was presented to a great standard.

With a genuine waterfront location all suites have absolute water views and is within walking distance of activities in the township. Our restaurant 'Stanley's on the Bay' is located in the historic Bond Store, built as a Customs Bond Store in 1835 with ships ballast. Our fully licensed a-la-carte restaurant serves the finest in locally grown produce specialising in superb steak and succulent seafood. The fully restored 'Wiltshire Railway Station' complete with railway memorabilia has been relocated and transformed in to our 'Whistle Stop Cafe' housing our breakfast bar and reception. Spend the day exploring the region, dine at 'Stanley's on the Bay' or simply order in and watch the sunset over Sawyer Bay from the comfort of your suite. Although once the sun goes down you will be asked to share the view with the local penguin population who happily wonder through the property and entertain!A stay at Stanley Village will see you experience a fascinating window into Australia's colonial heritage.

Vanessa Alonso is a meteorologist and news reporter with KTVO.
KIRKSVILLE, MO -- Tick season is here in the Heartland, and it's the topic for your Facebook Story of The Day.
In both Missouri and Iowa, the most common ticks found here are called the brown dog tick, the wood tick, and the lone star tick.
The most common diseases they carry are the Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF) and the Southern Tick-Associated Rash Illness (STARI).
There are ways you can protect yourself from being bitten by a tick.
"There are treatments you can apply that is a repellent or an insecticide. You can also wear long pants that are tucked into boots when going into an area with lots of ticks and wearing light colored clothing can protect you and help you see any ticks," said Dr. Wesley Ryle M.D. of the A.T. Still University Gutensohn Clinic.
If a tick gets in contact with your skin, the correct way to get them off is to gently grab them and slowly take the tick off.
"Grasp them with a pair of tweezers or covered fingers right behind their head and close to the skin as you can get. Gently and slowly pull them off. What you don't want to do is get them off quickly or squeeze hard on the body," Dr. Ryle said.
There's a window of about 24 hours to get the tick off before a disease will spread into the human body.
If you do get bitten and experience a deep red rash or flu like symptoms, contact your doctor immediately for antibiotic treatment.

For more than a decade, local hip-hop duo People Under the Stairs have been charting the ups and downs of underground life in their L.A. hometown. Whereas the Doobie Brothers once sang about "Takin' It to the Streets," Thes One and Double K prefer "Talkin' Back to the Streets," from their 2011 album, Highlighter, which turns the boulevards of this city into a sentient presence. Riding a coolly funky keyboard groove and a sample by Rakim, they come back home, rhapsodizing over "familiar smells" and "palm tree silhouettes" and marveling about the "6 million stories, not a single one repeats." On "Electric Tookie," they come to "reboot the mainframe computer/coming on to servers like Hooters take my order/Recorders rejoice for my voice and call Reuters." People Under the Stairs are the supreme chroniclers of the real L.A. in such older tracks as "L.A.

Musician-composer Miguel Atwood-Ferguson has a voracious appreciation of just about every known type of music, and since he's helming tonight's ultra-fab package show, "That '70s Soul," it's certain to be intensely felt, gorgeously rendered stuff. A star-studded homage to the critical likes of Curtis Mayfield, James Brown and Sly Stone, he's got a set list from paradise. With such collaborators as traps titan Ndugu Chancler, dazzling multi-instrumentalist Derf Reklaw, tenor sax paragon Kamasi Washington and special contributions from Brazilian sensation Seu Jorge, Afro-Pop empress Zap Mama and U.K. soul sister Alice Russell, this soul-stirring shebang will doubtless spread plenty of musical joy. —Jonny Whiteside

The Moonbeams
The Moonbeams' upcoming single might be titled "Life's a Circus," but the song is more mournful and foreboding than cheery or escapist. Lead singer Beck Black howls her bloody imprecations with a solemn, sullen intensity as drummer Adam Alt and guitarist Nick Maybury rattle together a post-punk racket that evokes the dark allure of The Doors mixed with Siouxsie & the Banshees. When she's not rolling around on the stage like Iggy Pop's little sister, Black conjures even more unholy dread from her keyboards, pumping out compulsively heavy bass lines with her left hand while delicately stirring up airier figures with her right. New Moonbeams songs like "Mindfuck" and "Marilyn Monroe" range from propulsive, electronic-based New Wave to hard glam-rock glitter. Former elimiDATE survivor Black may look like an adorable pixie in her glamorous, flapper-style frocks, but once she opens her mouth, she surprises with an inexpressibly sad and ageless low voice that comes out of nowhere like a forgotten ghost. —Falling James
tue 12/18Bobby Womack's storied career as vocalist, songwriter and session musician has spanned more than 40 years. Rooted in the gospel music tradition, the Cleveland native made a fateful move to California at 16 after being taken under the wing of soul-music pioneer Sam Cooke, in whose band he later played guitar. Womack's 1970s foray into solo artistry yielded a bounty of well-known hits, including "If You Think You're Lonely Now" and "Across 110th Street." In June, a fearless Womack released his 26th studio album, The Bravest Man in the Universe. His triumph over cocaine abuse, colon cancer and personal tragedy will be among the many discussion topics explored in the Q&A session before tonight's show. —Jacqueline Michael Whatley

The Watkins Family Christmas Gathering
You never know who'll show up at Sean and Sara Watkins' regular appearances at Largo. Past guests have included singer-mandolinist Chris Thile, their former partner in the beloved alt-bluegrass band Nickel Creek, as well as such unexpected luminaries as Fiona Apple, Jackson Browne, Nikka Costa and even that rarest and most reclusive of all Monkees, Michael Nesmith. It's likely that a horde of similarly stellar names will join the siblings at tonight's holiday show, but don't let your celebrity stargazing get in the way of appreciating the Watkins' own music. Sara Watkins is an especially eloquent fiddler and charming singer with an inviting new country-pop album, Sun Midnight Sun, while her older brother Sean is a deft guitarist whose humble manner belies the astonishingly intricately patterns he wrings from his ax. And both sing like a dream. —Falling James
These fresh-faced Bay Area boys brilliantly distill the frustrated fury of adolescence into four-minute extreme-metal muggings. Frontman Jake Pelzl may look like the archetypal annoying little brother, but he pours the entire history of injustice into his murderous bellow. His bandmates display a grown-up grasp of less-is-more dynamics and mutually supportive musicality. Defiler's self-described "lifecore" leans giddily toward hardcore, with intelligible do-something-about-it lyrics, progressive punky beats and guitars that are more weight than widdle. Sophomore album Nematocera is a deathcore defibrillator, and countless bedroom cover versions of the band's songs (mostly 2010 post-breakup meltdown "Cyromancer") are on YouTube, yet these guys aren't taking themselves too seriously — one recent show featured an audience-inclusive pillow fight. —Paul Rogers

BBQ Sausage
Have you ever been to Starskys ?
they have an extensive selection of sausages-----
2040 Dundas St E, Mississauga, ON L4X, CA -
Here is a recipe you could take to an amateur sausage maker, or maybe the small sausage store at 1004 Dundas St.W.near Ossington .
http://www.cdkitchen.com/recipes/recs... -
re: Kooper
I'm not sure if it was all pork or a pork/beef mix (I sent them an Email to ask but no response yet) Kinda like a hot smoked, finer ground really loose packed kilbasa. I usually avoid BBQ joints in Texas as the meat usually tastes like charcoal briquettes and Garlic Powder but this place was different, great quality. I've been here several times and everything is decent but it's the first time I tried the sausages, they were amazing, love to get the raw version and smoke them myself.

I was sitting in the front row, almost center. On either side of me sat a dozen women, with another row full behind me. Some rocked back and forth with babies cradled in their arms. Others sat quietly with wrinkled hands clasped delicately in their laps. And a few gingerly flipped through the scriptures open on their knee.
The hum of whispered chatter that begins the ladies' meeting on Sundays is one of the happiest sounds I think I know.
Class began and the woman beside me read, "…Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself."
That's hard sometimes. To love your neighbor, that is. All of them. And without equivocation. Especially the prickly ones.
But as I thought about it, I came to some conclusions.
Loving your neighbor requires that you get outside yourself. You have to sidestep your bubble of life and extend your reach beyond your daily task list. I think we get so caught up in our "busy," our "hurry," our "need," that we don't see each other sometimes. Sure our eyes generally register that another human being is somewhere within the vicinity of our sight. But. We've got to start seeing each other. We've got to start looking the people in front of us in the eye, and seek to understand what's behind the blue, or the brown, or the green. We've got to push the edges of our spheres out a bit and position ourselves inside opportunities to love another soul.
Loving your neighbor is easier when you know their story. Each of us is a vast library of collected works. We are chapters upon chapters of events and experiences and education. Some good. Some bad. Some happy. Some sad. And the sum of those stories equals our "why's" for doing what we do, acting the way we act, thinking the way we think, and saying the things we say. But I have learned that love comes more easily and swiftly when you know those stories. Because the stories bring understanding. And understanding brings compassion. Yes. Loving someone is easier when you know their story.
Loving your neighbor is impossible without extending grace. No one is perfect. People don't always say what you'd wish they'd say, or do what you wish they'd do. Sometimes they say hurtful things. Sometimes they say stupid things. Sometimes they don't say anything—when they probably ought to. But. People are human. People forget. People don't always know. So perhaps a better response to those disappointments or frustrations or annoyances is to simply give someone the benefit of the doubt. To remember that we're all just trying to do our best. That sometimes our best comes out a mess. And just extend grace.
At the end of the lesson, the teacher made a passing comment that I think went mostly unnoticed, but was perhaps the most profound sentiment of the class. She said, "God makes amazing people."
And I think she's right.
God does make amazing people. And to love them is not just a commandment. It is a privilege.

What is Nitro AminoFX?
As a hard-training athlete, Branced Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) are absolutely critical to igniting protein syntheses, which is the process of building muscle! However, BCAAs are essential amino acids, so your body can't produce them ,which means you need to take them in from external sources such as supplements. That's why Team MuscleTech researchers formulated Nitro AminoFX. It's a rapid-absorbing, Amino-BCAA formula super-concentrated with NanoVol BCAA, a BCAA matrix featuring a mega-dose of L-leucine plus L-valine and L-isoleucine; ArgiPro, a pre-workout pump amplifier mega-dosed with l-arginine, and GlutaPro, a specialty amino acid complex with l-glutamine and taurine.
In a randomized, double-blind, third-party study conducted at the University of Sao Paulo with 20 subjects separated into two groups of 10, subjects using a specific key ingredient combination available in just one daily scoop of Nitro AminoFX for 8 weeks gained 9 times the muscle compared to control subjects.

Victoria Road area were up in arms over the possible use of the road as a means of access to the school.The road comprises residential and commercial properties, is narrow, lacks turning space and is already considerably used for parking of vehicles to the detriment of occupiers. The district council were concerned about the possible use of the road access and told the county that it was unsuitable. They were also against a permanent access from the garages to the east of the council estate. In November 1976 the district council heard a detailed report on various suggestions made by the county, but found none of them satisfactory. They thought that any use of Victoria Road which would worsen existing intolerable traffic should be resisted.
What the East Northants Council wanted was access from Windsor Road. Rushden and Higham Ferrers Road Safety Committee wanted the council to press for a one-way loop road system linking Victoria Road and Windsor Road, but the council did not agree with them. As the building was continuing, the county held a special meeting in an attempt to thrash out the access problem. Among those there were the education committee councillor Mrs D.B.Oxenham, district council representative , and police. It was again stressed that the access question was an urgent one. It was also made clear that the catchment area of the school would involve one-third of the places being filled from the Upper Queen Street area and the Washbrook Road area, which empasised the difficulties concerning the number of vehicles likely to be used to take children to and from school. These were also problems of children crossing the trunk road.
The county said that for economic reasons there was no chance of the loop idea being adopted and that there was little chance of access from Windsor Road. Station Yard, off Rectory Road was suggested as a possible place for for vthe parking by parents delivering and collecting children with the construction of a footpath and vehicular access to serve the school site. Because the problem had not been resolved, it looks as if Victoria Road will be used to provide some form of access, even if this is only temporary.

Its Caracas
Marc Marzenit // Paradigma
// 12"
ITS Caracas, a track so powerful, it could glide out of an album sleeve by itself, yet is better accompanied with its remix counterpart. Paradigma founder, Marc Marzenit and London-Berlin techno wünderkind, Gavin Herlihy, collaborate in the ying and yang of EP releases. Side A is a raw introduction to propeller engines weaving in and out of wild jungle beats, simultaneously taking you on a journey through trippy sounds and psychedelic notions. Marc lays it out masculine, hot and aggressively, creating a peek-like riding experience until the explosive end. On the flip side, ITS Caracas (Gavin Herlihy Remix) is contrasted by softer minimal beats as a subtle tranquillity pulls the propeller sounds and psychedelic layers towards the back of the track filling the atmosphere with airy grooves and alleviation. As a producer and a live artist, Marc Marzenit draws his inspiration from a wide array of musical influences ranging anywhere from Bach and Beethoven to Fatboy Slim and Massive Attack. His greatest musical achievements are marked by his impregnation of sense and sensibility to "muscular" techno as well as being precocious in his electronic work- a personal and unique style, positively setting him on the outside quarters of other talented "techs." His production yin, music journalist and artist, Gavin Herlihy, is just as mighty with the decks as he is with the pen. His strongest points are the ongoing productions with continual support from today's biggest names in labels, producers and artists from the likes of Get Physical, Moodmusic, Luciano, DJ Hell, Paul Oakenfold, Laurent Garnier and many more. Remixed or original, ITS Caracas, skilfully completes the wrap.

You should share, Gimme some of that Blue Kool Aid!
I've watched them play. They are very beatable. I'm not worried too much about the freshman 7 footer, Sacre, he doesn't impress me. Harris is going to be tough to handle along with Bouldin. I think Bouldin has been in the lineup every time we've played them. They are not as quick as us but they have a deeper bench. They play 10 guys regularly and quite often.
If Coach JP will switch his defenses around like he did against UAB, which was brilliant, and Will has head in the game, we will get the win. I don't think it will be back and forth like it was with UAB. Man, the UAB game was just a fun game to get involved in! UAB hasn't beat us at home in 9 tries so lets keep that run going against the Zags.
Bringem' on and let the good times roll!!!
*Hands blueblood the jug.* Careful buddy, that's an extra powerful batch. I mixed it 1 pound of blue kool aid powder per gallon of water. Gonzaga has lots of bigs, all save 1-2 are productive. Look at these stats.
Will Foster 7'5" ppg 1.6/ rpg 1.2
Andy Poling 6'11" ppg 1.8/ rpg 1.8
Kelly Olynyk 6'11" ppg 4.3/ rpg 2.8
Robert Sacre 7'0" ppg 10.0/ rpg 5.1
That's their 4 big men. As you see other than Sacre they really contribute very little and Sacre isn't that impressive with 10 points and five rebounds. Out of 4 guys between 6'11" -7'5" they are getting a combined totals of 17.7 ppg 10.9 rpg and 1.8 blocks per game. That tells me slow and uncoordinated. By comparison Coleman, Niles and Witherspoon's combined totals are 23.1 ppg, 15 rpg and 3 blocks per game. They'll put Sallie on Bouldin and I think Sallie can handle him almost as well as AA did... that's an "almost!"
(Takes another shot of blue kool aid..... whew-weeeee! That's powerful stuff. )
