My plastic & me, a story for free

I like to throw my frisbee's, sometimes I throw with other people, sometimes we try and see who can hit the least amount of tree's, frisbee's like tree's, water is bad juju for frisbee, frisbee's are plastic and therefore are not drawn naturally to chains, I have to make my frisbee be friends with the basket, sometimes other people's frisbee's listen better than mine, but sometimes my frisbee doesn't hit the tree's, sometimes it goes right to the basket almost every hole, on the days were my frisbee is feeling compliant, sometimes other people's are not. I like those days, people give me more frisbee's and all other cool stuff on those days, and they even keep records of it, just for frisbee's doing what We tell em to do everyday. Each day is a new adventure for frisbee and me, will it fly crazy like a zig-zag bumblebee, or it will it hit the iron leaf of a singular tree, from grip lock to half cocked, from early release, to earthen tee's, there is one thing that is certain, at least it is for me. No matter the forum's and chats, no matter the baggers and rats, no matter the things people say you see, my frisbee is deaf, dumb and blind, and will remain drama free, in the end it be my plastic and me

Frisbee, Frisbee in the sky
How I wonder how you fly
up above the grass so green
I think to myself, Do you really mean
to soar and dip and gently sail?
And then I say
Oh, what the hell?

Newbies, Post in Welcome Central to open up the boards

Lets face it, most Christians will either lock you up in the law, or lock you down in hell, this is reality and not just me being negative.
Same here. At least Shibboleth gets to have a few girlfriends.My wife is not so understanding.John
Hi John and Holly,Good to see a familar face in the crowd............LOLOur friend is better than ever and I'm sure he is around these parts too, from time to time............LOL Love to you both,Joian
The Holy Spirit was given to us for a reason. So in comparison, those who go to organized church and are only ministered to by man in a sense are just like those who had to follow Moses.
I guess I am really blessed. Here in Almont we have quite a nice little group that get together for Bible study. We all help each other out when one has a need.
It's like speaking to a person of another country, and you're the "translator", translating out of the kingdom of darkness (their carnal mind's doctrines) and into the kingdom of light (mind of Christ understanding). Every doctrine that is, had it's origin in something of truth in the Kingdom, because there's nothing new under the sun. When a king visited another nation, he had to take a translator with him, to be understood. You are the translator He wants to take with Him to many "nations".........who will it be today? Blessings to you........
If you are willing to share, I'm interested in knowing where you find local fellowship ?

Aiken County Council may consider final reading of an ordinance proposing changes to codes regulating RV parks and campgrounds at its meeting today.
The ordinance was up for final reading in October, but Council voted to table it after the Development Committee asked staff to amend the proposed changes by, among other things, including language requiring some sort of screening between a park and a residential development or other use.
Council has the option today to remove the ordinance from the table and take action on it, or leave it on the table.
Stephen Strohminger, director of County Planning and Development, said screening could be a fence, a wall or plantings.
Augusta-Richmond County, for instance, requires the entire perimeter of an RV park be enclosed by a privacy fence at least 6 feet tall, according to its code of laws. Wherever an RV park abuts property zoned agricultural or residential, there shall be a buffer of at least 50 feet wide of either an undisturbed or planted buffer.
The changes have been the subject of debate with Council for several months.
As it stands now, the suggested code modifications are that an RV park and campground be a minimum of 2 acres instead of 5 and that maximum density not exceed 12 vehicles or campsites per acre instead of 10.
It was also proposed that the minimum setbacks, among others, be 30 feet from a local street and 20 from other RVs and structures.
But, Council approved an amendment in September reverting the setbacks to the original minimum of 50 feet.
Carolina Sparks and Bob Samples, each owners of RV parks in Aiken County, have urged Council to approve the changes.
Both of their facilities have been shut down for not meeting code requirements.
Aiken County Council meets today at 7 p.m. in the chambers, located at 736 Richland Ave. W.

Dislikes new subscription fee
Your new policy to ask for a subscription fee for the online paper is not very business smart.
I personally will not be visiting www.aikenstandard.com when other news outlets are not charging the public for their services (for example WRDW).
How are your advertisers going to feel when your online viewers decrease because of this.
This sounds like greed and I personally will find other ways to stay informed.

Cesarean delivery — also known as a C-section — is a surgical procedure used to deliver a baby through an incision in the mother's abdomen and a second incision in the mother's uterus.
A C-section might be planned ahead of time if you develop pregnancy complications or you've had a previous C-section and aren't considering vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC). Often, however, the need for a first-time C-section doesn't become obvious until labor is under way.
If you're pregnant, knowing what to expect during a C-section — both during the procedure and afterward — can help you prepare.
Sometimes a C-section is safer for you or your baby than is a vaginal delivery. Your health care provider might recommend a C-section if:
In addition, some women request C-sections with their first babies — sometimes to avoid labor or the possible complications of vaginal birth, or to take advantage of the convenience of a planned delivery. If you're considering a planned C-section for your first delivery, work with your health care provider to make the best decision for you and your baby.
Recovery from a C-section takes longer than does recovery from a vaginal birth. And like other types of major surgery, C-sections also carry a higher risk of complications.
Risks to your baby include:
Risks to you include:
If your C-section is scheduled in advance, your health care provider might suggest talking with an anesthesiologist about options for anesthesia during delivery.
Your health care provider might also recommend certain blood tests before your C-section. These tests will provide information about your blood type and your level of hemoglobin — the main component of red blood cells. These details will be helpful to your health care team in the unlikely event that you need a blood transfusion during the C-section.
If complications with your health or the baby's health prompt a C-section before 39 weeks of pregnancy, your baby's lung maturity might be tested before the C-section. This is done with amniocentesis — a procedure in which a sample of the fluid that surrounds and protects the baby in the uterus (amniotic fluid) is removed from the uterus for testing. Maturity amniocentesis can offer assurance that the baby is ready for birth.
Even if you're planning a vaginal birth, it's important to prepare for the unexpected. Discuss the possibility of a C-section with your health care provider well before your due date. Ask questions, share your concerns and review the circumstances that might make a C-section the best option. In an emergency, your health care provider might not have time to explain the procedure or answer your questions in detail.
After a C-section, you'll need time to rest and recover. Consider recruiting help ahead of time for the weeks following the birth of your baby. This might include household help or child care for other children.
An average C-section can usually be done in less than an hour. In most cases, your spouse or partner can stay with you in the operating room during the procedure.
If you have regional anesthesia, you'll be able to hear and see the baby right after delivery.
After a C-section, most mothers and babies stay in the hospital for about three days. To control pain as the anesthesia wears off, you might use a pump that allows you to adjust the dose of intravenous (IV) pain medication.
Soon after your C-section, you'll be encouraged to get up and walk. Moving around can speed your recovery and help prevent constipation and potentially dangerous blood clots.
While you're in the hospital, your health care team will monitor your incision for signs of infection. They'll also monitor your movement, how much fluid you're drinking, and bladder and bowel function.
Discomfort near the C-section incision can make breast-feeding somewhat awkward. With help, however, you'll be able to start breast-feeding soon after the C-section. Ask your nurse or the hospital's lactation consultant to teach you how to position yourself and support your baby so that you're comfortable.
Remember that trying to breast-feed when you're in pain might make the process more difficult. Your health care team will select medications for your post-surgical pain with breast-feeding in mind. Continuing to take the medication shouldn't interfere with breast-feeding.
Before you leave the hospital, talk with your health care provider about any preventive care you might need, including vaccinations. Making sure your vaccinations are current can help protect your health and your baby's health.
It takes about four to six weeks for a C-section incision to heal. Fatigue and discomfort are common. While you're recovering:
It's also important to know when to contact your health care provider. Make the call if you experience:
Postpartum depression — which can cause severe mood swings, loss of appetite, overwhelming fatigue and lack of joy in life — is sometimes a concern as well. Contact your health care provider if you suspect that you're depressed. It's especially important to seek help if your signs and symptoms don't fade on their own, you have trouble caring for your baby or completing daily tasks, or you have thoughts of harming yourself or your baby.

Extra Stout brings holiday spice to Red Cross benefit CD.Written by Sarah Ottney | Editor in Chief | email@example.com
Ellen McCarty of Extra Stout remembers hearing "Christmas in Killarney" played around the holidays at her Irish-born grandmother's house in Toledo in the 1950s.
"Most of us with Irish backgrounds will have similar memories," she said.
All six members — Ellen, her husband Mike McCarty, their nephew Tom Moeller, Marty Brogan, Tom Troy and Renata Burgett — have Irish roots. Irish-Americans John Redmond, James Cavanaugh and Frank Weldon wrote the traditional Irish Christmas song in 1950, Ellen said. It became a hit when sung by Irish tenor Dennis Day. Since then, the song has been covered by many others, including Bing Crosby and The Irish Rovers.
McCarty said Extra Stout's version, which appears on this summer's American Red Cross benefit CD "Red, White & You, Too!" "Christmas in July" section, was modeled after The Irish Rovers version.
"It just makes you happy. It makes you want to dance, makes you want to sing," Ellen said. "We did kind of put our own touch on it. We have a great fiddle player (Burgett) so we made sure we made that a strong part of the song. I think it adds so much to the song. We also have some really good vocals so we wanted to make sure that was accentuated."
The group, whose name comes from the label on a bottle of Guinness, is working on its third album.
"The music is pretty much an expression of joy and stems from our common heritage. We try to get everybody [in the audience] to participate. It's sharing the joy," Brogan told Toledo Free Press last year.
The McCartys both said it's an honor to use their music to give back.
"I am really big into helping anybody and I think the rest of the band feels the same way," Mike said. "It makes you feel good when you can do something with the talent you have that is really going to be a benefit to someone else."

It's an iridescent, pastel green with warm, golden-green sheen and a frosted, metallic finish. I don't have any real dupes for it; Too Faced Fantasy island is warmer, yellower and bareMinerals Wicked is greener, warmer. Zestful has an aqua-ish base color with a warmer, more golden shimmer that gives it complexity.

You're going to be seeing a lot of my newly altered pants because I just got them back after having them all for weeks and being too long to wear! So get ready for a lot of flare! :)
I got these velvet bell bottoms at Urban Outfitters about 2 months ago and I love them. I seriously feel like I'm wearing fashionable loungewear. I decided to let the velvet shine and wear a simple vintage blazer and white tee. When I bought these, they also had a burgundy pair and believe me, it was hard to choose. If I had known how comfy these were going to be, I would have just gotten both. Oh well.
Have a great Monday everyone! <3

+= Virtual Video Tourism!
Keir Clarke has taken the Google Maps API and built a map that plots significant tourist locations around the world. Simply called Virtual Tourism, places like The Forbidden City in China and The Great Barrier Reef in Australia are all plotted on a Google Map for you to explore. The cool part about the map is that when you click the pins, a handpicked video from Google Video for that location is presented in the bubble for you to enjoy! GChart.com also has a Video map that pulls in video from any location you select on the map through the YouTube.com service but Virtual Tourism is a bit more targetted for specific locations.
While on the topic of virtual tourism, I should also pass along this Map of "Sacred Destinations" that Holly Hayes passed on to me. She is the webmaster for the Sacred- Destinations (.com) and has integrated the Google Maps API into her site to display all the locations which are indexed. It's a pretty interesting way to "virtually" explore sacred religious and holy places from around the world.
These are just a few more examples of how Google Maps mashups are being used for the purposes of tourism. Check out my collection of Travel & Tourism and City Information mashups for more!

A Walmart Neighborhood Market is coming to Goose Creek.
According to Goose Creek Mayor Mike Heitzler, the new market is tentatively slated to be located on St. James/Hwy. 176 in Goose Creek.
The new store will be located on the corner of Central and St. James on the school side, Heitzler said. Its a smaller store designed to serve smaller neighborhoods.
According to the Walmart website, the Neighborhood Market floorplans are about 41,000 square feet, approximately one-third the size of a standard Walmart store.
Goose Creek Planning Director Sarah Hanson likened the Neighborhood Market to an IGA grocery store.
There will be less merchandise quantities, not as many different brand names. Where Walmart may stock seven or eight different brand names, this would only stock two or three.
The new store will offer quick and convenient shopping.
Included are groceries and general merchandise, such as fresh produce, deli, paper goods, pet products, hardware and pharmacy services. The store will be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
We met with the Neighborhoo Market people on June 12 and they were very impressed with Goose Creek. They said, of the 15 Neighborhood Markets, Goose Creek appeared the most together, Heitzler said.
The Walmart Neighborhood Markets debuted in 1998, and now there are more than 300 stores across the country. They feature a full grocery department, including organic and natural selections, prepared food options, fresh-baked breads, a self-serve deli and a bakery.
The store will also feature financial services and Walmart Site-to-Store, which allows customers to order merchandise online at Walmart.com and have it shipped to the Greenville store for pickup.
Goose Creek fared very well, Heitzler said.

Does anyone here suffer from anxiety (or at least anyone willing to talk about it?) I have been having a lot of anxiety for the past year and half, occasionally having attacks that leave me almost unable to function (I had a doozy last week where I pretty much had to flee the office). I've tried everything (meditation, exercise, deep breathing, etc.) and while it has sometimes helped me cope in the short term, the anxiety always comes back. What is frustrating is that it is generalized anxiety and not caused by any one thing that I can put a finger on. Any reason will do.
I'm finally throwing in the towel and admitting I have a real problem here that is not going to just go away by itself. Yesterday I spoke with a counselor on the phone for an hour. And I'm going to see my medical doctor tomorrow.
I'm concerned about medications, if I decide to go that route. One worry I have is that they'll prescribe a medication that could change my personality, or have bad side effects. I don't want to become dependent on a drug to function each day, and I don't want my creative energies sapped away. My thought is, I didn't need anything to get through some of the roughest parts of my life, so why should I need something now when I don't really have any major problems to worry about? But, I think it was this attitude that prevented me from looking for help in the first place.
Anyway, if anyone out there wants to talk about their experiences with anxiety, anxiety attacks or anxiety medications, I would really appreciate it--particularly if you've found something that helps. This isn't the kind of thing I would discuss with my poker buddies in person but I feel like I'm able to open up to the members of this board.

Its in rough shape for being a month before release but i will disregard the memory leaks, poor animations, placeholder icons and overall clunkiness and bloat of the game engine and the standard yet versatile 3 best skill spam combat system and gave it a 6 based on the setting, storyline and atmosphere alone..
I have spent well over 20 hours playing which says a lot and i still have a few lingering side quests unfinished but i am already burned out on the somewhat standard quest system and the skill leveling system however i can honestly say the game is fun but to me it is still a very thinly disguised classic funcom game full of bloat, outdated ideas and classic timesinks to slow progression, its not quite what i want in a game these days however i can see where many others may absolutely love it..
Minus the linear main progression quest line this game has a lot of free roaming though often zany side quests and if you want to level your chosen skills to equip higher level weapons you better do them all..
This game has potential but is at least 6 hard working months or more away from being ready for primetime..

This game's a 4, solid.
The problem is is that there are more stupid, mundane and boring quests than there are innovative ones. When people mention the innovative quests, they talk about the same 5 to 10. But there are some 200 quests in this Beta.
This is a great solo/coop adventure game sandwhiched into a horrible MMO action-rpg. The two games need to be seperated.
The best test for how good the beta is is to get away from it. With GW2, I still want to play it, it was that good. I'd love it if they had some adventure style quests in there, but as an MMO its amazing. Team work, coop adventuring, great combat. It's a game.
Secret World, i just don't see that. I can't help but think about how stupid it is that every morning i have to find Tom's body. Or how silly it is that this guy wants exactly 6 zombies killed, or, for that matter me, a fire caster can't just show him that yeah, fire hurts zombies. The graphics on DCU, which came out 2 years ago are crisper than this game. And lets not mention all the horrible animation. Jumping looks like this guy is having an enima. Their normal stances look stiff and rigid.
Then thre's all the "waste my time " sturf. Running through the teleportation place, running to reach your body, running to find more quests. This game gets a 4, out of 10.

The beginning of the game was very badly done, initially would have rated it like a 3 out of 10. But after playing for a bit, some of the main story can be ok/interesting, so ended up rating it a 5 out of 10. Could make a long list as to why I rated it so lowly but I think its all been said before.
Overall a bit worse then I expected though. And I think they actually did themselves a disservice by doing an open beta at all.
I would like to add that, like alot of people I am starved for a non-fantasy MMO, and I really like the setting and potentially the stories of it. However I am not so starved that I would pay for this very substandard game. Might mess around with it when it becomes FTP, but then again might not if there is something better to do.

I enjoyed the amunition quest blowing up the zombies with differn't types of ammo though. When the questing is the big selling point here I'm sort of let down overall

I'm not sure if I would purchase this at release or not based on this weekend.
The atmosphere/setting and details throughout the game buildings are great and definitely the best part of the game.
The quests are as good as it can get for static quest givers. I actually have to pay attention to my surroundings.
The adult theme is refreshing. Not staring at cartoon/anime characters is nice. You are not treated like a drooling idiot (although some of us may be!)
The classless lvless skill point system is interesting and looks like this may be the part of the game that would keep people playing after they have done all of the quests.
I only encountered a couple bugs through the weekend thus far.
The big con is the combat. No sense of impact when I hit something with a hammer. And there doesn't appear to be much in the way of tactics...very spamtastic. Not sure if there are castable buffs or castable debuffs, that would be nice, I've yet to see the castable type. Passive buffs aren't too fun and not being able to really cripple a mob with castable debuffs isn't fun either.
Animations are not great, but I can live with them. And the overall gameplay/graphics feel a little rough around the edges, not too polished.
Is this an MMO? I sometimes feel like I'm playing a single player puzzle/action console game. How will the replayability be with this game? SWTOR ran into this same problem, nice to level and then you couldn't force me through the same quests again.
Mob loot looks to be the dreaded universal loot table. No camps of mobs to kill for something interesting or unique to the that mob (I could be wrong on this one). The mobs look to only be around for the quests and story, not just living in a world.
I almost want to buy it to support the company as they have not tried to appeal to the grandmother that plays WoW or even my wife. Also they are basically telling people that have to RUSH RUSH RUSH to "endgame" (whatever the hell that is) to sit and spin...zomg I have to walk and learn the areas!!1!1!

gave it an 8, though I pretty much fragged up my first day and treated it like a typical mmo....rush in grab the quests kill the mobs repeat ad nauseum....and by friday night was very much...meh...even though I had super high hopes for this game as I love the setting and lore they were going with/for. so saturday I hardly played as was feeling kinda bummed about it and just kinda did some thinking about the game and trying to see why I was not 'getting it' and realized I had really been playing the game from the wrong mindset...this was a game I could actually go at my own pace and not feel like I had to rush to endgame like with swtor...if it had endgame...lol. And working at night and keeping my daughter during the day my game time has been greatly diminished from a few years ago, so this is definitely a bright spot in my gaming line-up and will most definitely be playing this for awhile along with gw2.

A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five.
I've gone with a 7 as this is still a Beta stress test so actually rateing it now seems a bit idiotic but for the sake of arguement there you go,combat does seem uber light compared to kick ass combat and decaptations of AOC so for a horror game that sort of took the shine of it but these are supposedly place holders animation wise anyway.
The world graphics are very atmospheric obviously not fully optimised and there is some neat touches that show some real love and care has been laviished on the game,hopefully this will also be addressed with the spell effects which are a bit wishy washy and don't seem to have much impact when they hit a NPC.
The story is the real winner here the cut scenes are not the best graphicaly but the VO are top notch and London does feel like a urban hotch potch of the worlds populace which in reality it is,not quite sure how the heck you actually get away with strapping an AK47 on your back when in reality you can get an armed response squad on yer ass for showing a replica gun in the UK !!,but takeing reality to one side the amount of quests per level is impressive and the amount of exploration needed will if i sub keep me happy for quite a while and with all the myths in the world they have an endless variety to pick from.
The skill system is awesome the way you can mix and match is quite amazeing and only one zone is unlocked for this Beta,so the possiblities are endless and the way you can then save a build then load it is a touch of genius,it does seem the holy trinity is practically dead as with GW2 this is a major progression in the latest Mo's in my book.
Overall i'm impressed but as it's Beta still feel they have more up their sleeve,and Funcom state this is not the final build and from videos seen at events the graphics are way better and seem much more optimised.

I gave it an 8.
It would have a 9 if the animations were better
It would have an 11 and I'd be a raging fanboi if there wasn't tab targeted combat. If the combat was fun I'd never log out.
I love the UI - it's like we're wearing Google Glasses or using a phone with an augmented reality app
The environment is awesome, the quests are fun and puzzling. I love weird conspiracy theories.
The graphics are beautiful - the insides of places we can't go in are fully fleshed out - you can look through the windows - the buildings aren't instanced!
It's a lot funnier to watch a train of zombies chase people than a train of boars for some reason.
Just random thoughts - I'm having a lot of fun with it.
I haven't pre-ordered yet - if the beta didn't end for preorders too I'd buy it right now.

If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.
Voted 6, While the graphics are good, the setting is nice, and it seems like there are quite a few missions to do and they require using our brain which is awesome, I feel beef with a couple of things.
One, the animations and combat are bland.(small I know but I'm voicing it out). I deducted no points since I can get over this.
Two, alot and I mean ALOT of the quests are repeatable. At this early of a stage it reeks of laziness and repetativeness. - 1.5 points.
Third and final, The game very much encourages you to solo, while it gets you going to think out riddles with friends or guilds, it is very focused on being able to do everything on your own. The quests are rated by difficulty and even the hardest one can be done solo with very little issue. Solo instances are abound in very many quests. I understand your main quest, but I have seen them in a bunch of side quests too, so while you are actively trying to group up to do things all of a sudden you are split up and have to enter said solo instances which breaks the immersion of the group as well as the world, because we all know a group would go in that basement together. - 2.5 points. I am Tired of MMO's being completely soloable. This ruins alot of the Online Experience for me. Having dungeons and raids as the only real group content. It is sort of the same mistake SWTOR made.
So There is my Opinion, I don't care if you agree with me or not, I am not here to fight, only voice my opinion.
Also Deserving Honorable mention is barely any lag, and freeze-ups, and no Disconnects. WTG Funcom.

I voted 8. My thought there is that a good deal of the issues in beta will be resolved. I know a bunch will still likely be there at launch in the way of small bugs, etc but I know they do plan to have many more options in character creation added and are replacing animations.
Even if those things did not change a lot I might still give it an 8. The setting, the story lines, the voice acting, the design on missions, the environments, are all very good for me. I LOVE the fact that the game is actually challenging. I DIE....what a concept. Then I have to do a corpse run that reminds a little of the original EQ.
I like the fact there are many real world references and that you will have to go to google (in game browser or otherwise) to research and look things up and while there may be some marker on the map as to the general area to go to, it does not hold your hand.
People asked for something different, and innovative and I would have to say this is it, even more so than GW2 (Which I thuroughly enjoy as well). I am a Lovecraft story/game fan too which helps. This game, while I really love it, will not be for everyone.

Also another item, I forgot to mention in my impressions, that helps the immersion is that you can play this in first person. I would play in first person a lot of time when traveling and it was suprisingly great.
Really the more I think about it the more I think I will be buying this game at release.

I gave it a solid 7 on the poll, if 7.5 would have been an option thats what I would have picked.
Overall fun game with a few shortcomings that can be improved on. I will more than likely play at release, have it preordered from amazon and will decide before now and release.
If so many other games were not coming out that I am interested in would be a definate release day game for me.

I gave it 8 and it would have been a 9, except for lack of character customization(moar clothes pls!!), a little clunky combat animation, and random disconnects here and there. Overall, I'm definitely playing come launch as for me those things can be overlooked or dealt with, nothing gamebreaking for me so far. I'm really digging the creepiness, environment, ambiance of it (helps that I love horror/survival films, zombies, and post-apocalyptic type gimmicks) and the varied missions scattered about the first zone add to the overall feel. I have only really spent time in the first zone trying different skill trees and exploring, but it has that Haddonfield(Halloween) meets Antonio Bay (The Fog) kinda feel. Me likey!

Thsi game could be a 7 possibly 8 with another 6 months of work on it. Redo the animations and update the graphics. They started designing this game 5 years ago and it shows because it doesn't look like they've had a graphics update since. Go through and wipe 3/4 of the meaningless quests and replace those with a 1/4 many well thought out intracate quests. Then create a a task system.

every episode i grow more and more sad that Wes Sims is out, he is just hilarious.
What an awful fight. i think that about every fight in this season, but damn. they just keep getting worse. i see better displays by amateur heavyweights at grassroots kickboxing events, that was fucking pathetic. having said that, Junk struck me as being a fucking moron, going on about how he would win through heart, how he doesnt use technique. wtf? great pick of guys to rep the sport there Dana.
Mitriones blow up in sparring was fucking hilarious. you can guess what hes doing though, and really, its not a bad idea. they all seem to think hes a crazy asshole, but hes the one fucking with them. not the other way round. (well, maybe he is just a crazy asshole)
Never discount the possibility that it's not a clever ruse . . . .
What got me about the fight was not how bad it was (honestly, there were some interesting moments, and I thought Junk did a good job just to survive the early part of Round One) but the way Dana White went nuts. It was like he'd never seen MMA before. I don't know why boxing meatheads dislike him so much; he should be their leader.

I will say this for Matt. I train with the guy, and I've seen him go hard in training. That fight was not indicative of his gas tank. He's very inexperienced as far as having fought much. I can pretty much guarantee it was all adrenalin dump that caused him to gas. He'd been so jazzed up to fight for so long, when the time came he just got to excited. I watch him go hard for multiple 5 minute rounds in training without letting up at all. It's a whole different world when you actually fight though because of nerves and everything.
Now as for his crazy comments and stuff. I have no idea what all that is about. He's very different back here at home.

I couldn't tell if Dana was actually excited about the fight, or if he was just trying to fool people into thinking it was exciting.
That might have been the worst MMA fight I've ever witnessed. I went from rolling my eyes at Junk's attempts to fall into guard and buttscoot after every exchange, to laughing at how terrible their conditioning was, to cringing at how little training either one seemed to have. Seriously, I've seen better boxing in old Tough Man competitions.

At least Junk was honest - in the pre-fight interview he said something to the effect of "when I fight my technique goes out the window". I suck at takedowns and grappling in general, but I was stunned by how shitty a "veteran of the octagon" looked when shooting for takedowns. He appeared to be in awful shape, his hands ended up just above his belly button, and his supposed mad-dog ass beating style was laughable. He got punched one good time and seemed to never recover. The guy looked good banging mitts, but wow did he ever fall apart. I thought Junk was playing possum, but nope. He was just not ready, whether mentally or physically I don't know.
Nothing to say about Mitrione. He's an asshole whether he's faking insanity or not. Props to him for winning, but he needs to relax / breathe and get his cardio right if he's going to survive another fight.
Most disappointing was Dana. Is he on drugs and getting dumber? He looks kinda swollen in the face and neck, plus his reaction to that first round?!??! Stunning. Nobody in their right mind could have thought that fight was worth a **** after about 2 minutes, much less the talking head of the UFC.
In general the HW division looks hopeless. I watched Rothwell get absolutely mauled this weekend by Velasquez. Big Country Nelson got mauled by Rothwell in the IFL. Nelson appears to out-class everyone else on the show. I guess I am just missing the point of the whole season.

Worst MMA fight i've ever witnessed. Someone has already summed it up perfectly as a "fat bloke fight"
I agreed with decision but only based on the first 30 seconds of the fight, whereby Matt actually did something and Junk just wilted to the canvas every few seconds.
I can't believe Dana's bullshit at the end. "These guys were throwing bombs!" ...They could barely lift their own arms for at least 90% of the fight.

DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES The dining space and rooms at Bay Flats Lodge can accommodate large corporate parties of up to 39 guests, soon to be 47.
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES As you can see, paint and color have little to do with efficacy. Both these topwater plugs caught fish for us.$RETURN$$RETURN$
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES Most folks believe the topwater bite starts when bay temperatures reach 70 degrees and is best in the morning or on overcast days. I've experienced contradictions to all of these.
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES While trout is the topwater species of choice for many anglers, the persistence and punch of a redfish strike is a close second.$RETURN$$RETURN$
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES As you can see, McClelland and Beabout found calm conditions behind the protection of Matagorda Island.
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES In a knee-deep tide fish tend to froth the surface when hooked. This redfish acted more like a trout at times.
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES Springtime bay temperatures mean ample dissolved oxygen to fuel the stamina of hooked fish. Even redfish breach the surface.
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES This nice trout caught by Nathan Beabout gave us enough reason to bail out of the boat and scratch the surface for a while. It paid off.$RETURN$$RETURN$
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES For the next several months many anglers will begin their morning with a surface plug and switch to a soft plastic subsurface lure later in the day.
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES Nathan Beabout reaches for another topwater redfish. I think all of his fish were caught on a Super Spook Jr., generally considered a calm-water surface bait.
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES This San Antonio Bay osprey stood its ground during a lengthy photo shoot. When the camera was packed away it flew.$RETURN$$RETURN$
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES It appears this osprey had been doing a little topwater trout fishing of its own. Nice catch.$RETURN$$RETURN$
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES Nate releases another topwater redfish. We kept a few fish for the table too.
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES A pair of Dallas angler relaxes on rockers near their rooms at Bay Flats Lodge after a day of fishing.
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES Wading is not a must at Bay Flats Lodge, but a fair number of anglers prefer to wade the shallow reefs and coves of the San Antonio Bay system.
DAVID SIKES/CALLER-TIMES This Spook Jr. has seen its share of fish jaws. Notice where the hooks have worn off the paint.

The night market here is a big draw for holidaymakers, where you can browse stalls laden with sumptuous fabrics, pungent spices and intricate jewellery, by atmospheric candlelight.
Candolim is a great all-rounder of a resort, and possibly the best choice for families. Here you'll find miles of bright white sands, as well as watersports, shops and cafes on the seafront for you to enjoy. For a change of pace, Panjim is where you'll also find the historical attractions of Old Goa, plus Coco Beach - one of the best places in Goa to take a dolphin spotting tour.
For those who are simply craving a laidback beach break, Benaulim is one of the best resorts for a piece of the Goan quiet life.

This darling puppy had LS surgery on 6/27/13 and was released from the hospital the next day. Since then, he has continued to improve, except his appetite has been decreased. My dogs have all done well on the Royal Canin Hepatic prescription kibble, but Lucky stopped eating that about 3 weeks ago. Since then, he's been on a home-cooked diet with some mashed RC Hepatic kibble and RenalCal liquid nutrition. He's been getting his medication and supplements and six small meals a day.
He already seems ready to run around, but his activity has to be limited for at least another week-tough to do with a puppy! Today I started to decrease his aversion to the prescription kibble by saying "good boy" every time he looked at a piece of kibble, then every time he nudged it with his nose, then when he ate the piece. In the video, you can see that I'm tossing the kibble to him, trying to get him interested in a playful way, then rewarding him with "good boy". This has worked really well, and even though he only ate 2 pieces of kibble for the first meal (on his own), by the second meal this amount was increased to 15 pieces. Still not enough for his daily requirements (so he still gets RenalCal) but hopefully he's back on the right track to eating the kibble on his own.
The results of his liver biopsy should be back by the end of the week.

We bring you the first photos of a red F30 3-series sedan spied, showing the best F30 interior photos yet. The interior photos are telling, revealing a semi-black panel display, lane change assistant, and auto-start stop technology.
See our analysis and photos inside.
Here are some new renders of the F30 3-series sedan, by German publication Auto Test. These are some of the more attractive renders we've seen and are clearly based off the F10 5-series, but with some attention to paid to previous F30 spy photos.
The rear 3/4 view is particular attractive. However, the renders are missing some new styling features revealed in the most recent F30 spy photos, such as the double character lines.
We continue bringing you what may appear to be live coverage of the various F30 3-series FEP test cars driving around the streets of Munich. This new set features in-action photos of a Carbon Black F30 and Alpine White F30. Enjoy the entire gallery inside, now 40+ photos.
We have added yet another set of BMW F30 3-series photos, with the best closeups available yet. This model is an Alpine White F30 325i/328i caught while parked, which provides us some great looks at certain camouflaged elements such as the headlights, grilles, front bumper, side view mirrors, and rear lights. Check out the new set of photos inside.
The F30 3-series FEP (final evaluation phase) stage sedans were out testing in force today! This is the third sighting we are bringing you photos from, and this time the F30 was spotted in Alpine White. Enjoy the photos!
Sometimes when it rains it pours. We bring you even more F30 spy photos today – this time of a black/dark blue F30 335i showing off F30′s double character lines, aggressive front end with squared off angel eyes and some new wheels. Check out the photos inside.
The 2012 F30 3-series sedan has finally dropped its heavy camouflage to reveal a handsome and evolutionary design from the current E90 3-series sedan!
As expected, the F30 3-series retains its sporty and squat design, with short overhangs and wheels pushed to the corners. However, the front end adopts BMWs current design language, with a sleeker sloping front fascia with widened kidney grilles. The rear lights remain classic L-shapes and the car retains the prominent character line throughout its doors.
The F30 3-series sedan is expected to be … CONTINUED
Here is an updated F30 3-series generation debut and sales timeline, as speculated by SCOTT26. The F30 3-series sedan will be announced in November of this year, coinciding with the Olympics. It will then make its public debut at the 2012 Geneva autoshow in March of 2012 and be on sale shortly thereafter.
Catch the rest of the timeline, including some insight into the 3-series Gran Turismo model inside…
The next generation F30 3-series is nearly upon us (we're expecting info on it later this year), so what is your improvements wishlist for the next 3 series? BMW does read the site and comments, so come share… you never know, your wish may be granted.

WILLIAMSON — A Canada, Ky. resident was placed under arrest by Williamson Patrolman (WPD) J.L. Marcum and was arraigned on a total of 19 charges, including 2 felony counts and 17 misdemeanors.
According to the criminal complaint, Patrolman Marcum was on road patrol on W. 4th Avenue during the cold temperatures that swept through the Tug Valley area, with ice and snow covering the roadway. As the officer approached the U.S. 119 intersection, a Ford Ranger truck accelerated as it came toward the patrol car, and then the driver turned his headlights and taillights off. Marcum turned onto W. 3rd Ave. and activated his lights and sirens. The fleeing vehicle then turned onto Ben Street, which is a narrow, one-lane residential street. The driver drove back onto W. 4th Ave. in a hurried manner, ignoring oncoming traffic and a stop sign. The operator of the truck is then said to have traveled onto U.S. 119 into S. Williamson, Ky.
After performing a records check on the vehicle, Mingo County 911 dispatchers informed the officer that the license plate number belonged on a 1998 Pontiac vehicle, not a Ford Ranger. The driver exited off U.S. 119 and took the Aflex, Ky. exit. Patrolman Marcum pulled off the roadway to use his cell phone to request assistance, and observed the truck passing him heading back toward Williamson, and once again began a pursuit. At this time, Marcum was in the passing lane in the northbound lane of U.S. 119 when his cruiser was struck by the defendant as he cut in the direction of the officer in an attempt to do a U-Turn, causing substantial damage to the police vehicle. Both vehicles crossed the median and came to rest in the southbound lane of the 4-lane.
Marcum exited his cruiser and ordered the driver, James Eric Stanley, 35, from the vehicle, but he failed to comply and proceeded to put the truck into reverse and sped away, almost striking the officer. The chase continued until the driver's side tire on the defendants truck began to go flat, and the rim could be seen making contact with the highway. Officer Marcum continued following the vehicle that was swerving back and forth on the highway and once again struck the police cruiser, forcing the patrolman off the road. Marcum then received assistance with the arrival of Mingo County Sheriff's Dept. Cpl. C. Endicott and Deputies Fitch and Miller, Lt. G. Dotson with the WPD and Kentucky State Police Trooper Giles.
The officers followed the gouge marks in the roadway and the trail of tire debris onto Ky. Rt. 292 South, Turkey Creek Road, Rogers Park and Nosbin Fork Road, where they located the truck and the driver. Stanley was in the process of trying to talk a man into towing the disabled truck after almost driving it over the bank of a narrow one-lane road where the resident lived. Upon approaching Stanley, the officers detected a strong, alcoholic beverage odor on his breath and person. After placing the defendant under arrest, a search of the Ford Ranger yielded drug paraphernalia.
Stanley was charged with fleeing while DUI; 2 counts of failure to stop; driving on a suspended or revoked license; DUI; assault; destruction of property; crossing the median; unsafe vehicle on highway; obstructing an officer; improper registration; no registration; no proof of insurance; fleeing vehicle, reckless; failure to yield right of way; accident causing property damage; reckless driving; defective equipment and unsafe driving.
The defendant was arraigned before Mingo County Magistrate Dee Sidebottom and was remanded to jail on an $8,900 bond. Stanley appeared in court for his preliminary hearing but the case was continued until a later date, per the request of the defense attorney.
