A group of four teenage girls in Rochelle, Ga., are raising money to hold an integrated prom. Which raises the question, "What year is this?"
Yes, in 2013, students at Wilcox County High School will have to choose between two racially segregated proms. How segregated are we talking about? Student Ethan Roundtree tells 41NBC that "if you're an African-American and you show up to the white prom, you'll probably get asked to leave."
In fact, just last year a biracial student was turned away from one of the proms by police, according to WSAV. In the understatement of the year, the four girls behind the idea for an integrated prom — Stephanie Sinnot, Mareshia Rucker, Quanesha Wallace, and Keela Bloodworth — call the tradition of segregated proms "embarrassing."
Maureen Downey of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution explains why they are allowed to exist:
It happens because the proms are not officially school events, although a great deal of promoting and planning by students occurs within schools. Since the proms are private parties held off campus without any school funds, schools disavow any control over the events, which are organized by parents and students and reflect historic and lingering racial divides. [Atlanta Journal-Constitution]
In other words, it's the community that has maintained this tradition. And many are vehement about keeping things the way they are. "I put up posters for the 'Integrated Prom' and we've had people ripping them down at the school," Bloodworth told WSAV.
The New York Times reported on segregated proms in Montgomery County — located a little more than 60 miles from Wilcox County — in 2009. Back then, several of the students blamed the situation on parents not willing to let go of the past:
"Most of the students do want to have a prom together," says Terra Fountain, a white 18-year-old who graduated from Montgomery County High School last year and is now living with her black boyfriend. "But it's the white parents who say no… They're like, if you're going with the black people, I'm not going to pay for it." [New York Times]
Families in Wilcox County started the practice of holding independent proms after the schools were integrated decades ago. Steve J. Smith, superintendent of Wilcox County Schools, said on the district's Facebook page, "I fully support these ladies, and I consider it an embarrassment to our schools and community that these events have portrayed us as bigoted in any way."
Because it's not an official school event, Wilcox County High School hasn't been able to sponsor the integrated dance. Instead, the four girls have turned to raising money on Facebook.

– We all know the problems that some have within WWE with Vince McMahon. It's said that Triple H has been put into an impossible position when it comes to WWE talent relations because the person still making the final calls is Vince McMahon and Vince changes his mind frequently.
Triple H is currently on training wheels and trying to find his way. You can't learn, if you are not given a 100 % chance on something. That comes with anything in life.
WWE talents are becoming increasingly frustrated because they are at first told a certain direction by Triple H and then Triple H ends up having to get with the talent again and explain what he told them before has been changed, because of Vince.
This isn't turning out to be a bad thing for Triple H as the WWE talents, for the most part, see him as one of them and they believe that he's also frustrated when things get changed.
Source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter
– WWE was in Rome, Italy and are are the quick results:
* Cesaro defeated Dolph Ziggler
* Heath Slater defeated Brodus Clay.
* Alicia Fox defeated Aksana.
* Sami Zayn defeated Damien Sandow.

CSUN President Jolene Koester, AMC Dean William Toutant (right)and Interim Associate Dean Paul Krivonos accepted the 2001 IndiGo Award for Educational Excellence from the 20,000-member AIFFP organization at the Thursday, May 17 opening gala for the college's new Manzanita Hall facility.
"It comes down to how prepared students are to succeed in the industry," said AIFFP President Barry Collin in explaining how his organization evaluated film programs. "You have to not only master the art and craft, but you must know the business. That is truly where Northridge excels."
"I am amazed and proud of the high quality of everything this college produces," said Dean Toutant at the opening of the new building, which will house three AMC departments starting in the fall. "We are limited only by our own imagination, which is to say, there is no limit to what this college can accomplish."
The AIFFP award was the group's first to an educational institution. Collin, who heads the Hollywood-based nonprofit group, which serves as the education and advocacy entity for independent film producers worldwide, said CSUN was chosen from among dozens of evaluated local full-time film programs.
With a focus on undergraduate programs, which train the bulk of the professionals who go on to work in the film industry, the AIFFP considered programs' curriculum, faculty projects, internships, job placements, industry involvement and balance of classroom and practical training.
Based on those criteria, Collin said the Northridge program emerged as the best. "Northridge has alums in the highest levels of the industry, as well as everyone down the line," he said. "Their grads are extremely knowledgeable, competent and flexible. They graduate ready to make things happen."
In his speech during the award presentation, Collin added, "Like those years at the Oscars when we are surprised and pleased at an unexpected winner, we could not be happier to present this award to a campus that quietly, deftly and relentlessly built an institution that produces young professionals who are ready to make things happen.
"In an environment where there is little time for on-the-job training, and less room for error, we need students like those produced by this university. We salute their success, as we watch CSUN develop the next generation of visionaries," Collin said.
"So when next you gaze upon the screen, lost in a world of action and emotion, know that you will increasingly be in the very capable hands of students of California State University, Northridge," Collin added.
In the fall, the college's departments of Journalism, Communication Studies and Radio-Television-Film will operate out of the new 65,000-square-foot Manzanita Hall. The latter department at the same time will change its name to the Department of Cinema and Television Arts.
The state-of-the-art building-the last major new building completed as part of the university's recovery from the 1994 Northridge earthquake-will include a movie theatre, television and film production studios, a foley studio and production and editing rooms.

Good review.
Slide release is probably better reserved as a slide lock. Racking would be the preferred method of slide release.
Great review! Always a pleasure to watch your material.
Some thoughts which occurred to me:
At about 3:07 you said 'safety' when I think you meant 'mag release'.
I noticed when you were doing the speed reloads that it looked you didn't put your finger vertically along the front of the magazine, the way I was taught to do at Gunsite. Are you familiar with that method of gripping the magazine and have abandoned it for some reason, or were you just taught differently?
(On a related note, at Gunsite they teach you not to use the slide stop and just grab the slide over the top with your palm and 4 fingers because it's a gross motor skill, whereas hitting the slide stop is a finer motor skill and more likely to be bobbled under stress. I know there is substantial debate over this however).
What do you think accounted for the rapid return from recoil when compared to the Glock and 1911? Was there anything in particular you could point to that made it feel 'better' to you, or was this all just a matter of the pistol fitting you well?
Yes, I've definitely been trained to do the "index finger on the front of the mag" thing – but it's not how I started out shooting handguns (in the military, nobody taught me the "correct" way), and every time I've tried – or been forced to try – it, I don't find it to be any faster or more reliable for me. Others may have different luck.
As to the slide stop/release/thingy vs. "over the top" or "slingshot" speed reloads, I've been to courses that advocated both, my favorite instructor told us to use the one that worked best for us. I've found that going over the top takes a little extra time, time you don't necessarily need to spend. Obviously I fumbled my very first attempt, but I would train around that and would probably use my weak hand thumb as I was taught while shooting a 1911. If I consistently had problems, I would seek out an alternate method, but I don't think that's absolutely necessary with the pistol as is.
The recoil spring feels stronger than either the 1911 or the Glock, and a faster slide velocity on the forward movement could help bring the pistol down faster – it could also cause the weapon to bobble a little as you see in the video – something to take note of and train around. I think the FNX clip in that video was either the first or second round I put through it.
Nice review. Well done. I am increasingly becoming interested in this pistol and your review only reinforced that.
Thanks for a great review. I too have been looking at purchasing another 9mm and really like the features of the FNX9. How would you say it compares to the Smith and Wesson M&P9 in terms of features, functionality and accuracy as well as concealed carry?
I used to own several M&Ps, but sold them because S&W would not sell me the spare parts I wanted, and their CS rep was rude to me in person. However, as to your question…
I think the trigger of the FNX9 is superior to the stock trigger of the M&P9 Pro I used to own. Both in terms of initial pull and reset.
I like the ability to carry cocked and locked – yes, the M&P has an optional manual safety, but I wasn't in love with its exact placement. Neither of my M&Ps had manual safeties, but I did use M&Ps with manual safeties that other people owned. However, I did not find the lack of a manual safety to be a problem. I simply like the concept of cocked and locked.
In terms of accuracy, they would probably be neck and neck. In terms of practical accuracy, I was able to shoot the FNX better because the trigger agreed with me.
The FNX does have pretty agressive grip texture, though you can knock that down a bit with sandpaper if you want. My M&Ps were rust buckets, as many are – I can't say how the FNX did because I didn't have an IWB holster for it. Its size would lead me to believe that it could be easily and comfortably concealed.
Hope this helps
A quick question about holsters…I've owned (2) FNP's in 9mm and 40s&w. Will the FNX fit the same holster(s) as the FNP's? I used a Bladetech paddle holster for my FNP's.
It most certainly will, almost all of the reviews of this gun are by people who owned FNP's and they all say that the FNX fits their holster perfectly.
I am currently looking around for a good home-defense weapon, and was interested in the FN-X9 as a possible alternative to the expensive and impractical (but definitely more intimidating) Five-seveN.
So thanks for a very instructive and useful review

Seen some kids getting upset on the walk home. One kid turned like a switch going from skipping obliviously, tongue-hanging out joy- to totally despondent and depressed as the ice cream truck slowly passed the point of no return before she could get $ (she was alone too, no audience for that display of emotions - magnifique!). Another kid got told to wear a really dorky helmet or else not be allowed to ride a tiny bike, so he threw the bike down, said he would never ride it, then slowly slid down a slide facedown with his hands by his sides. And at the bottom just stayed there like that. Spring adorableness, I was saying "Awwww, shit."

Ascariasis is the name of an infection caused by the roundworm Ascaris lumbricoides. When a worm lives inside the human body, the condition is called a parasitic infection.
Roundworms can live inside the small intestine for up to two years. The worms are about as thick as a pencil and can grow to be about 13 inches long. They reproduce very quickly. Female roundworms may lay more than 200,000 eggs every day; these eggs leave the body through bowel movements.
Ascariasis is the most common type of worm infection in the world, with an estimated one billion people infected, but it is rare in the U.S. Roundworm's eggs live in the soil and in contaminated feces or bowel movements. In countries where people live in poverty, where there is poor disposal of human feces, or where crops are fertilized with human feces, Ascaris eggs can be ingested and the infection can spread from person to person via infected feces.
Children are more likely to be infected because they are more likely to put their contaminated fingers in their mouths. Once they are infected, they are more likely to have symptoms because their intestines are smaller and the worms have less room.
Your child may be at risk for roundworms if he or she has been adopted from a developing country or if you have traveled to areas of the world where these infections are common. Ascariasis tends to be more common in warm, wet, tropical countries.
If your child were to swallow a roundworm egg, it would pass down into your child's intestine and hatch into a baby worm called a larva. Larvae can pass through the intestine wall into the bloodstream and travel through the lungs up into the throat. They are then swallowed again and return to the small intestine where they grow into adult worms.
Adults and older children may have no symptoms. When signs and symptoms do occur in children, they may include:
Worms that resemble earthworms in a bowel movement
Worms coming out of the nose or mouth
Stomach pain
Loss of appetite
Weight loss or failure to grow
If worms cause a blockage of the intestine, a child may develop severe pain and vomiting, with a tender, bloated, and hard belly.
If your child has a history and symptoms that suggest roundworms, your child's doctor will order a stool sample so that a small amount of the child's feces can be studied under a microscope to look for roundworm eggs or worms.
In most cases, roundworms can be easily treated by taking a medication that kills the worms in about three days. Medications called albendazole, mebendazole, and pyrantel are commonly used in the U.S. In rare cases, surgery may be needed to relieve a severe intestinal obstruction caused by roundworms. Reinfection can occur, and is common in areas where it is prevalent.
Be sure to contact your child's doctor if you suspect roundworms.
Here are preventive steps for a roundworm infection:
Be aware of the risk when traveling in developing countries where soil may be contaminated by feces.
Wash and peel or thoroughly cook fruits and vegetables before eating.
Wash your hands and teach your children to wash their hands with soap and water after being outside, before handling food, and after going to the bathroom.

Does anyone know when the Public Tour of the Smart Home will be? I would assume it is going to start on or about April 15th but I haven't heard anything about it.
Thank you!
Will you blessed to be able to go on the Public Tour? If there's a public tour, who will receive the proceeds?
I hate to be the bearer of bad news... According to what some design blog folks (who were personally invited by HGTV to visit the Smart home and blog about it), there won't be public tours of this years Smart Home.
I can understand both thoughts on this.
I did appreciate seeing the number of photography crew that make it seem like we're there. They probably got more photos of things that might be missed.
Again....very good crew.
And....decisions are made with reasons.

Weary of the mindless malls,
We journey out to view the scrawls
Etched by the Neanderthals.
And there compelling to us all,
We stand speechless and enthralled
Observing scenes both large and small.
Of grazing beasts in boundless stalls,
Diffused in peaceful, stoic sprawls
Waiting for nothing, nothing at all.
Look, if you dare, upon the next wall.
Where speared brutes bleed waterfalls;
Caught unawares, we were quite appalled.
Now listen closely to hear the squalls
And whoops and cries of Neanderthals;
Wreaking carnage in that bloody brawl.
The natives succeeded to shock and maul,
Then worked together to bring the haul
Into their prehistoric mess-hall.
An eon ago the creatures stood tall,
Walking nobly, since not made to crawl.
Now blood dyed granite, marks their fall.
It's time to leave but I try to stall
By using my knife to get a spall,
But not today, my name is called.

Terrence Howard says he can't get work because everyone is scared to hire him after his estranged wife alleged he violently abused her.
TMZ has obtained new documents in the nasty divorce between Terrence and Michelle Howard. Michelle has accused Terrence of smacking her in the face and chipping her tooth with his wedding ring, slugging her in the face and neck and threatening to throw her off a balcony ... the list goes on.
Terrence has denied all the allegations, but he says, "I am gravely concerned that her actions have had an incredibly negative effect on my career and my ability to obtain future work as an actor."
Terrence's agent, Jim Toth -- Reese Witherspoon's hubby -- submitted a declaration in which he says Terrence has not received any "suitable offers" since the allegations were made, and he only pulled in $60,000 for his last project which ended in September.
I know I really hate it when I only make $60...,000 for a few months work.
A Terrence, you must not be the man that you are behind the camera. Cause if this was in the movies, you would've went upside her head one-time. That's how you would've did it. But don't do that. Be a man about it. They'll eventually get tired.
This is the second wife that he has abused and he said the same thing about the first, that she is trying to ruin my career. What career? That of an abusive jerk? If there were any morals or ethics in hollywood, no one would hire this jerk again. HE can't act. All his role sounds the same, like someone who is constipated.
He can always audition for black guy #2 in Big Momma's House 4.
Would they both agree to a non-binding lie-detector test? That's always a good starting point.
He Put Down Black Women So Bad.That's what he gets.
He's had a reputation in the industry as an asshat long before this incident.
This guy's oversized ego ruined his career a long time ago. And if it is true that people are turning away from him because he beat up his wife (if he did), then good. Maybe it will teach him to keep his hands to himself.
If it's not true, hurry up with the divorce and move on. You weren't married for that long. So, I don't see why after 6 months you're still producing do***ents about how her allegations are hindering your work. The longer you stay connected to her, the worse it's going to get. Most abusers like engagement of any kind, even if it's negative. So, the longer you put up with this the more convincing she sounds.
Probably has more to do with his attitude than anything, how you get dismissed from Iron Man because you think you deserve more $$$ than the main star is beyond me.
I hope he doesn't get any offers or jobs .a man wife beater is a sissy not a real man!
Recently, American men's attitudes towards women have taken on a Talibanish quality.
Howard has long believed that women are dirty, and that all women should cleanse themselves after peeing with a baby wipe.
Chris Brown brags about beating Rhianna, how anyone (of any sex) is privileged to not only let them bang their brains out, but should thank God for have been given the opportunity.
Rhianna goes back to Chris and he accompanies her on her next big drop and Clive Davis, apparently forgets that his female protege, who was abused by Bobbie Brown is dead upstairs as he introduces the Grammy Awards' celebration of Chris Brown.
It's obscene and quite Taliban-like.
Clearly, these folks lack the world-view that would enable them to see the parallels of heir treatment of women to that of a terrorist regime . . . but for all who are paying attention, it is quite apparent.
What you need is a record contract and for the Grammy Awards to celebrate your second coming.
Perhaps you could get Baby Wipes to sponsor you, Chis Brown, Rohianna and Bobbie Brown to back you, and Clive Davis to produce you.
Supporting abusers seems to be all the rage.
He worked at the bank I work at in Cleveland OH right before he left for Hollywood and became famous. He could always come back and work for peanuts like the rest of us!
One can allege anything. Like, for instance, one can allege that allegations of domestic violence are interfering with my ability to earn an income, pay spousal support, etc.

In the late 1970s career educators Eileen and Raymond Huntington opened the first Huntington Learning Center in Oradell, New Jersey. Their goal was to take an individualized approach to education, adjusting instructional tactics according to each student's set of needs. Their success in helping K–12 students prepare for exams and improve grades and study skills quickly spawned franchises across New York and New Jersey.
Today, the certified Huntington tutoring staff utilizes testing and rubrics for assessing each child's skills, academic needs, and potential for growth. The teachers even note the student's behavior in different testing and academic situations to craft a methodology sensitive to each child's learning style. Teachers also adhere to the company's code of ethics that stresses professionalism and confidentiality and encourages pupils to improve their grades honestly through dedicated study rather than shortcuts.
For Tim Griffin, flying has always been a way of life. He's the third in a line of pilots within his family that, together, has more than 75 years of experience in the air. But Tim also realizes that being airborne doesn't feel natural to everyone, and that's why he founded FlyHome, LLC. Here he and fellow pilots work to ease flying phobias. To that end, pilots discuss the intricacies of flight with their clients during fear-of-flying classes, explaining how they avoid turbulence in the air, what they did to met their professional requirements, and how they subsist for hours on a single bag of salted peanuts. Sometimes they even take clients on tours of aircraft and air traffic control centers.
Today's smartphones may be technological marvels, but they're still susceptible to gravity. Fortunately, when they drop and break, the technicians at Phone Fix It can repair them. The staff conducts screen repair, as well as a service not even AAA will assist with: phone unlocking. Even better, the team fixes up gadgets from a wide array of brands, including Apple, Samsung, and BlackBerry.

WWE has started teasing the upcoming release of the Paul Heyman DVD, which will be called The Paul Heyman story. The company plans on making the documentary of the former ECW owner available to the public some time in August of this year.
WWE has contacted Jim Ross for some work. The longtime commentator is being brought back into the fold to help out with the upcoming Paul Heyman DVD being produced. The belief is that he will be telling some stories on the former ECW owner.
All signs are pointing to WWE working on a brand new Ultimate Warrior DVD, one that will not mock him like the previous one. There are talks that it will be released around Wrestlemania time to coincide with a possible induction ceremony.
When he made his Impact Wrestling debut last night, Mike Tenay called MVP by that name, which led to speculations as to whether or not TNA will be using that as a permanent moniker. It now appears that the company will be using that name, as he used it during a promo taped for next week.
TNA produced a highly entertaining funeral segment for Aces and Eights, who were forced to split up after Bully Ray was defeated by Mr Anderson at Turning Point.
"....and I'm STILL NOT buying TNA nor would I ever want to affect the team of Mike Tenay and Taz. They have great chemistry and as I have said before they do a great job with what is provided them on their monitor."

According to recent reports, Microsoft Corp is believed to be close to buying Skype, the internet communications provider.
The news comes from several sources, first reported as a rumour by GigaOM, and later updated as a done deal, the news was also reported in the Wall Street Journal. According to these sources, the deal is thought to be worth $7 and $8.5 billion, making it Microsoft's largest acquisition.
We announced last week that both Facebook and Google were entering negotiations to buy Skype [See: The Skype's the Limit: Facebook and Google Eye up Skype], so it seems all of the big internet players have been swarming around Skype for some time. But did anyone predict that it would have been Microsoft? Not even analysts saw this one coming.
How will it work?
Sources say that Microsoft is paying well over the odds for Skype, but given their desperation to expand the online side of their business, beyond simply Bing, it seems they are happy to pay such an amount. Microsoft could use Skype in a number of different ways. Firstly, they could use it as a communications hub for businesses to make video conferences and online meetings – much like how many suggested Google would position it if they were to purchase Skype.
Secondly, the deal will give Microsoft more traction when it comes to the consumer market. For example, analysts believe the service could be integrated into Microsoft's existing products such as Xbox 360 and Xbox Kinect and even Microsoft Office.
Other Microsoft services that would benefit from Skype's service would undoubtedly be their Windows phone. However mobile phone service providers haven't exactly been keen to push Skype, considering it provides free phone calls via data connections as opposed to voice connections. So it would be a bit of a gamble considering it would be incredibly difficult to keep mobile service providers happy at the same time.
Will it work?
The question on everyone's lips is whether or not it's worth the price, and more importantly, will it actually make any money?
Well, Skype was purchased by eBay in 2005 for $2.6 billion, the idea being that users could communicate more effectively when buying and selling. However the service never materialised and eBay eventually sold off a 70% stake in Skype in 2009.
In 2010 Skype's revenue was $860 million; however, including acquisitions and other costs, they still recorded a loss of $7 million. At present, Skype has a debt of $868 million and whilst it is a huge name amongst consumers, it isn't exactly much of a money maker – much like YouTube when Google purchased it.
It would certainly bridge the gap between Microsoft and Skype's 663 million registered users, which is exactly what Microsoft want. However with most of Skype's services being free, it is difficult to know how Microsoft is going to monetise from an integrated service.
Microsoft's latest acquisitions have been questionable. Taking their partnership with Yahoo as an example, the YaBing merger has seen faltering revenues and net earnings, largely due to the need to improve their AdCentre technology [See: Yahoo's 2011 Q1 Results: Revenues and Net Earnings Down].
Whether the deal will get ratified remains to be seen. There is always room for last minute bidding from other parties and even if Microsoft do manage to secure Skype, what direction will they take it in? There's still plenty of mileage in this particular story.

Let's let the pros handle it
Friday, May 03, 2013 3:03 AM
Early-day Kansas county commissioners probably were well-equipped to handle most any problem they encountered because the problems weren't that complex.
That's not the case today, and the troubled Saline County Juvenile Center provides a textbook example of that complexity.
In mid-April, Sheriff Glen Kochanowski asked commissioners for two more corrections officers for the juvenile center. The sheriff -- with decades of law enforcement experience, including the past 16 as sheriff -- said the safety of the inmates and officers was being compromised, and the juvenile center was a lawsuit waiting to happen.
"For 16 years, I have been asking commissioners to build the staff over there, and we haven't," Kochanowski told commissioners.
Commission Chairman Randy Duncan responded by saying that commissioners were trying to hold down costs, and they would discuss the matter.
Then on Monday, in a surprise move, Kochanowski closed the center and transferred the 10 inmates to the juvenile center in Junction City -- at a cost of $150 a day per inmate, or $1,500 a day.
Commissioners then upped Kochanowski's ante by saying they'll keep the center closed until at least the end of the year.
On Tuesday, Duncan said that closing the center appeared to be a good thing, that it was too bad it was closed, but it was the sheriff's decision and he shouldn't have done it without consulting with commissioners.
"They could have pulled management over there to work if they needed staff," Duncan said. "They could take their computers, log in over there and do work. That's what happens in the private sector. It could have been done, but the sheriff had no desire to get it done."
Kochanowski said he's trying to negotiate a lower rate with Junction City, but then Duncan said maybe the commissioners should be doing the negotiating. Why?
Ideally, Saline County would be run like the city of Salina. Commissioners would hire professionals, provide them with the tools they need and let them work.
Oversee, don't interfere.
Instead, we have people with (we'd guess) no corrections training trying to tell an experienced professional how to move his staff around to plug holes, as if his managers are up to speed and capable of doing any job in the department.
This is not a simple matter, and commissioners would do well to let the pros handle it.

Those situations are additionally deplorable, because the women are using a position of power to prey on the boys.Count Jerkulahttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-24068771361818263042014-02-20T06:46:35.836-08:002014-02-20T06:46:35.836-08:00And as for teh blind Item could be Michael fassben...And as for teh blind Item could be Michael fassbender, Leto or Bradley Cooper, this guy (Bradley cooper) allow PDA of him with a very very young girl in a park in PARIS reading lolita novels(Vladimir Nabokov), and what was very creepy it that this girls looks as a minor, which it seems to me Cooper is obessed with very young girls becaouse he says one that he ven make a thesis of that Novels Lolita Altagracia CDhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-28044840994495935252014-02-20T06:40:14.699-08:002014-02-20T06:40:14.699-08:00Please let me see where di you see that in spain t...Please let me see where di you see that in spain the age of having sex as or with a adult is 13 yearsAltagracia CDhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-8459652369094350072014-02-20T06:37:12.835-08:002014-02-20T06:37:12.835-08:00I am Dominican, and I´m in Spain for the moment, c...I am Dominican, and I´m in Spain for the moment, cunt your moral relativism makes me sick, then as you says Pederasty, pedophilia or incest are a matter of law "its only juridical matters" as killings, torture are and in some country in the world still being ligal some of then, what always call my attention is , how it is always MEN are trying to look for argument to justify pedophilia,I have never seen a woman trying to minimize these types of problems why Men does?,Altagracia CDhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-27030761564111994912014-02-19T22:22:38.815-08:002014-02-19T22:22:38.815-08:00I'm a mother to two kids older than 21, and a ...I'm a mother to two kids older than 21, and a grandmother to seven, (5 steps), and I am looking at it as Count is-legality.

FWIW it is commonly accepted that Mary was 14 when she gave birth to Jesus, at which time she was married to Joseph. Since the bulk of western morality has its roots in Judeo-Christian theology there is something for you to chew on.

And before you even start, no, I don't think fucking 15 year-olds is okay. Even if it is legal.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I've been a parent at norview for 4 years now. Norview has improve each year academically. Norview also incourages students to strive for more. Kodos to the principal and vice princepal, but some staff and teachers need to learn how deal students and parents in a better way.
My child's teachers has made a tremendous positive role model to my child. At such a young age, she has learned a lot from being responsible, taking responsibilities and taking on leadership. I am very greatful to have great teachers for my child to learn from. Norview Elem. is an excellent school. Very safe environment with disciplined students.
I think that the students at Norview are doing great academically. I would like to see more sports being offered at the school itself. Other than that the office staff would benefit from a customer service class as it is critical that parents as well as the students are in a friendly environment. -Renada Cotton
I'm pleased with Norview's progress. The Principle, teachers and staff care about the students and want them to excell. They provide discipline, academics, a safe environment and positive feedback to the students. Although there is not alot of parent involvement, the students continue to strive and exceed expectations.

Geri is the new track that marks the debut of Superhumanoids album and after hearing "Mikelah" a couple of months ago I was looking forward to see what they will put out next and "Geri" officially hooked me. Its a blend of pop, indie rock, and synth pop in a full-length album. The blend of the male and female vocals trading space in the spotlight.
If this is only a preview of whats next I think we are all in for a treat.
Mikelah is a slow-burning electronic jam with a hazy melody capturing that current mid-summer feel. The distant male vocals of the verse's are counterbalanced by a lofty female vocal in the chorus, but the best part is when the two voices come together in harmony at the end.
If you want to know more about Superhumanoids check out their Facebook and Twitter pages.

A very passionate rant by Stephen Silver about "working for free". While I do agree with him in a lot of regards, it's very hard for young artists to break into the animation industry. If you try to charge for a reasonable amount, it's likely your client will go elsewhere to look for other oblivious young talent. I remember when I was starting out many years ago I would try and take anything that came my way, even if the rates were obscene. Growing up in the most isolated city in the world (Perth Australia), you would likely try and take anything that came your way due to a serious lack of an entertainment industry. While I agree doing art for free should be something nobody should have to do, it is something that happens. The biggest mainstream gig I ever had was my own segment on Australian television (Gamer Tonight). That came about entirely because of a short animation I did as a favor to the show as it was starting out. Even though I was quite young, I don't regret doing that as I felt it was justified in the end.. But I can imagine there's a lot of young talent that fall into that situation and get entirely screwed just as he mentioned. If you're going to work for free, just do it for yourself. Create art that will get you recognized by the right people. Post your content online and let it get passed around. Eventually the work will start coming to you.

I don't understand why you don't read Hogan's book, even after reading your explanation. As an engineer, I can relate to the joy of finding out something yourself, but I don't believe I would have ever learned thermodynamics by watching an air compressor. Why don't you ignore what he wrote about feel, and just use the pictures and diagrams as instructions? Had you read his book, you wouldn't be asking yourself a lot of these simple questions that you're stuck on. This is the proper foot position as shown by Hogan.
I haven't gone through this entire thread, but I don't believe you're putting as much into your grip as you should. I'm sure someone has told you this already, but Hogan basically says that your grip will make or break you, and says that without a proper grip, it is impossible to execute a proper swing. Even if you don't read Hogan's entire book, you need to read the section on the proper grip.

I can see a lot clearer when comparing animated gifs. And I have mucho issues.
- Hips turning to quickly during takeaway
- Right leg not becoming enough of a kickstand
- I have no transition
- Lag not being maintained on downswing
- Head/shoulders not staying back during downswing
- No reverse C
I'm really liking your swing improvements. How is it translating into your golf scores? The main things I'm seeing is that your upper body and head shift backwards in the back swing and you aren't thrusting your pelvis up at impact. See how Hogan's head turns, instead of shifts in the backswing and his belt buckle points more toward the sky at impact and follow through.
I wouldn't call what you see "improvements." I'd rather call them changes to what I was doing last year this time. Scores have changed. When I started all this I was averaging 104ish-107ish. I am now averaging 95 over my past 6 rounds. This could probably be a lot lower, but I don't use irons yet. I don't have any in my bag except my SW that I use to chip and pitch. I use a 4-hybrid for all iron-related shots, so from 190yds to about 70ds only the 4-hybrid. Yes, I know this is absolutely ridiculous, but with the full swing, I only want to focus on the wood clubs first. I may be ready for irons in winter 2012, but I don't know yet.
There are lots of illusions happening in Hogan's vids. Regarding the "pelvis up at impact," when you get a chance, take a video camera to the range and pull your pants up with the belt around the navel. Take a few swings and you will be amazed that your pelvis will be magically "up" at impact. Then lower your belt to normal level, and you will be once again amazed that your pelvis suddenly stopped going up at impact. I'll do this in a future vid so you can see what I'm talking about.
Most of these swings carried about 180-200yds either straight, fade, or pushed right. My major misses were topped shots that turned into real low line drives. Majority of the topped ones were without a tee. Still don't know where to put the ball in the stance. Top priority in these range sessions is the mechanical aesthetic stuff.

Hunh?? More hip slide?? Man, I'm sliding all over the place lol! I gotta find a way to slow the crashing hips. They're leaving my arms behind.
I'm skipping transition study for now and will put all efforts and brainpower into impact and what my right elbow does. I need an impact bag. I'm liking what I see here with pre impact, at impact, and post impact! Feels like I'm hitting rather than swinging here. Will drill it all week then take it to the range this weekend.

Your emulation looks pretty close however it may be hard to tell in slow motion, but your swing doesn't look that fluid. Like you are trying so hard to be the same as Hogan that you cannot be comfortable with the motion. I tend to try to model my swing after Freddy Couples. Not exactly but in transition. Works very well for me. Very smooth. Your swing looks a little forced and I am not real sure but your athletic abilities may also be a limitation.
We'll no offense or anything but not a 25 handicapper. I'm a 17 handicap and I'm FAR from being good at golf. I really do not know what a "good" golfer would normally score but let me rephrase... Are you trying to better yourself at golf or just look like Ben Hogan when you golf? Once again I am not trying to offend, just trying to get an idea of whats going on here.

(WHAS11) - There is new information about the Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer.
The Kentucky native received the award from the president recently but now a newspaper is questioning if some of the information about his rescue and recovery mission were exaggerated.
In 2009, Meyer is said to have saved 13 fellow marines, 24 Afghans and retrieved the body of four dead Americans while in combat in Afghanistan.
McClatchy newspapers say they found discrepancies in the stories.
The Marine Corps says they stand by their official documents about the events.

Minnesota For Marriage Releases New Marriage Minute Video: "Would passage of the Marriage Protection Amendment end the ongoing conversation that our state is engaged in concerning the appropriate definition of marriage?"
No—the opposite is true. Without the Marriage Protection Amendment, special interest advocates could take their cause to activist judges and politicians who could redefine marriage without any input from the voters themselves.
Click play on the image above to view the video. Please take the time to share it with all your friends, neighbors, family and colleagues.
The Minnesota Marriage Minute is an ongoing dialogue with Minnesota voters hosted by veteran news anchor Kalley Yanta. The educational videos are designed to explore issues related to the marriage amendment. The videos are in a question and answer format and are released on a weekly basis.
The Marriage Minute series is a great resource for understanding the proposed Marriage Protection Amendment and equipping you to speak about the amendment. Please share this important educational resource with family members, friends and neighbors. It's critically important that all our supporters be as informed as possible about the amendment, and this series of videos is a quick and easy way for you and your friends to learn about what is at stake in this election.

Bought my toaster for Xmas 2009, had it repaired (didn't hold toast down) 18 months later, now the same defect repeats. I bought it thinking of it being of good quality but I was wrong. I'm now looking to get some compensation from Bosch - won't get it repaired again - let's see.
Written on: 17/04/2013
It took more than 3 months to sort this out with Bosch care. They just are sluggish. Bosch care suggested selling me a new toaster at 30% discount or fixing the broken one with 50% discount of the price of spare part. Obviously there is problem with product design and Bosch must know it but they do not stand up to carry their responsibility. I'll go and buy other brand.

Ban Phanom
From silkworms to skirts
What we say:
It's possible to watch the women working on their loom and observe the entire silk-making process from silkworm, through to dyeing and weaving, to wall hanging the final product in the village of Ban Phanom.
As expected, you can buy textiles here, though prices start high and you'll need to bargain hard. The villages have a very touristy feel about them and are a common early morning stop (09:00-10:00) on the package tourist circuit.
Shopping aside, they make an interesting destination for a challenging bike ride and the towns have some very old and untouristed temples. Most people who arrive on bicycle or motorbike will breeze through quite quickly and head onto the next sight along this road – Henri Mouhot's grave.
More detailsOutskirts of Luang Prabang
How to get there: It is possible to bicycle here, though it's a long and hilly ride. Be sure to get a well-marked map and bring plenty of water. Otherwise, a tuk tuk should set you back about 100,000 kip including waiting time. Another option is to arrange a ride through one of the many tour companies around town.
Whichever way you go, the village can easily be combined with a trip to Mouhot's grave and are sometimes included in organised local treks.
