Cyclist injured in collision with truck
July 11, 2014
A bicyclist was helicoptered for treatment after a Thursday morning collision with a truck in the Cave Rock Tunnel on Highway 50.
The accident was reported at 10 a.m. Tahoe Douglas Fire District medics and Douglas County Sheriff's deputies were first on the scene.
According to investigators, a 2004 Kenworth tractor truck and trailer driven by 39-year-old Richard J. Pettay of Carson City and a single rider bicyclist 48-year-old Clarence M. Aldridge of Bakersfield, Calif., where both traveling eastbound on US 50 in the right lane and entered the tunnel with the tractor truck following the bicycle.
For reason unknown at this time Pettay did not see the bicyclist, and the front of the tractor struck the rear of the bicycle. Aldridge was thrown from the bicycle inside the tunnel. After colliding with the bicycle Pettay exited the tunnel and stopped. Aldridge came to rest inside the tunnel in the right lane. He was stabilized by EMT's, and transported by Care Flight to Renown Regional Medical Center with serious injuries.
Pettay is cooperating with law enforcement during their investigation. The accident is still under investigation, and charges are pending. Alcohol or drugs is not a factor at this time.
There is not a bike lane inside the two lane tunnel and the speed limit is 35 mile per hour.

Stargate Wars ~ Created for the Bungie.net Group Mjolnir Battle Tactics.In 1928, during an excavation in Giza, Egypt, a colossal coverstone is uncovered, which houses a stone ring underneath it. The stone ring is transported to the United States for study, however soon after, the United States Military takes possession of the ring. Many years later a scientist studying the ring discovers perhaps the greatest secret in the history of humanity. The ring is actually a functional device that, when properly used, can open an Einstein-Rosen Bridge or "wormhole" to other planets. The ancient Egyptians called the ring "Stargate." A military expedition is sent through the wormhole to evaluate the danger of posed by the device. They soon discover an aggressive species called the Goa'uld. The Goa'uld are a powerful symbiotic alien that requires a human "host" for survival. As such, they seek to subjugate all human-kind in their quest for power and domination.The year is now 2008. The Goa'uld are positioned to attack Earth but one thing stands in their way. The United States military has employed an alien defense system that poses a very serious threat to an invading Goa'uld force. The key to activate this defense system is housed at Stargate Command at the Cheyenne Mountain Complex. The Goa'uld have infiltrated the SGC with one of their own. Due to their symbiotic nature, the Goa'uld are able to control their human host without being easily discovered. The Goa'uld spy has sabotaged the Stargate, preventing the SGC from closing the wormhole or the iris. Stargate Command is now faced with a Stargate opened directly to the Goa'uld homeworld and must defend against the impending invasion.You are humanity's last line of defense. Can you protect the SGC against a Goa'uld onslaught or is Earth doomed to become another enslaved planet?Lock and load. They Goa'uld are coming!Map Variant: Stargate Wars 2This map is a recreation of Stargate Command. The map contains a Gateroom and a Command Center with two access points. To the rear of the Command Center is the Garage. The Command Center has a complete view of the Stargate and any incoming Goa'uld. The Stargate is the most realistic gate created using the Halo 3's forge. It is the same designed used in my MBT Stargate map variant. Various forging techniques have been implemented…, including the ever-popular interlocking method. While the map takes place on Foundry, you will find little evidence of this. The map is almost completely enclosed. It is virtually unbreakable. Game Variant: Stargate WarsThe Goa'uld are easy to identify in their golden battle armor. Careful though… the Goa'uld have a number of weapons at their disposal whereas you have only a battle rifle and sidearm. If the Goa'uld overpower you, a symbiote will be implanted and you will join the ranks of the Goa'uld. Beware. They are a ruthless race.The Goa'uld (Zombies) can pick up weapons. Four Goa'uld weapons (Fuel Rod Cannons) are available for pickup at the Goa'uld spawn. Due to the power of the Fuel Rod Cannon, the weapon damage has been dialed back for the Zombies. In addition, Goa'uld spawn with one of the following; brute shot, brute hammer and needler. Goa'uld also have one more trick up their sleeve. They are slightly more powerful for a short time after spawning. This is to prevent blatant camping at the Stargate… a problem that came up frequently during play testing. Several other problems were noted and corrected during play testing. For instance, the Stargate teleporter is no longer blockable. Goa'uld armor was designed to be resistant to energy weapons, however projectile weapons such as the humans use are much deadlier. As such, one shot to the head of a Goa'uld is lethal.The only problem that I couldn't work out during play testing was the alpha zombie spawn location. I wasn't able to figure out how to force a spawn on the other side of the gate. This is why I worked in the idea of a Goa'uld Spy into my plotline. So, when the game starts… watch out for that spy. He could be amongst you. In all likelihood though, parties over five or more will force the zombie to spawn in the correct location.Images:StargateGateroom – Left SideGateroom – Right SideGateroom – Left Side and Command CenterCommand Center viewed from GateroomCommand Center Access – Left SideCommand Center Access – Right SideInterior of Command Center – Rear ViewInterior of Command Center – Frontal ViewGarage – Last StandView of Command Center from GarageDon't forget to download the gametype: Stargate WarsAlso download MBT Stargate.[Edited on 04.10.2008 8:05 PM PDT]

Portslade is the name of an area of the city of Brighton and Hove, England. Portslade Village, the original settlement a mile inland to the north, was built up in the 16th century. The arrival of the railway from Brighton in 1840 encouraged rapid development of the coastal area and in 1896 the southern part, known as Copperas Gap, was granted urban district status and renamed Portslade-by-Sea, making it distinct from Portslade Village. After World War II the district of Mile Oak was added. Today Portslade is bisected from east to west by the old A27 road (now the A270) between Brighton and Worthing, each part having a distinct character.
Portslade Village, to the north, nestles in a valley of the South Downs and still retains its rural character with flint buildings, a village green and the small parish church of St Nicolas, which is the second-oldest church in the city, dating from approximately 1150.
Another notable building in the village is Portslade Manor, one of the few surviving ruins of a Norman manor. It was built in the 12th century and is now a Scheduled Ancient Monument. Foredown Tower houses a camera obscura, one of only two in the south of England. It is open to the public.
Portslade-by-Sea, to the south, straddles the small but busy seaport harbour basin of Shoreham harbour and is the industrial centre of Brighton and Hove; the Monarch's Way long-distance footpath follows the seafront west towards Shoreham. Terraced housing dating back to the 19th century is interspaced with parks and allotments. The main shopping area is on Station Road. Boundary Road in neighbouring Hove is the location of Portslade and West Hove station, with direct trains to London Victoria with a journey time of about an hour.
Portslade is the boundary town with West Sussex and the dividing line is a footpath extending from the seafront up on to the South Downs. The adjacent areas of West Sussex are Southwick and Fishersgate with Fishersgate occurring south of the railway line. Fishersgate has its own railway station and like the Portslade station actually occurs at the boundary.
Portslade in History
Portslade has been suggested as being the Roman port Novus Portus mentioned in Ptolemy's Geography of the 2nd century AD. Drove Road, in the original Portslade Village, has been linked with the Roman road (sometimes known as the "London to Portslade Way") that passes through Patcham valley to Haywards Heath and on to Streatham in London. The Old Shoreham Road is thought to form part of the Chichester (Noviomagus Reginorum) to Portslade Roman road. Roman remains and a Roman burial site were found in Roman Road. The name of the town had been thought to stem from the Roman placename Portus Adurni (modern Portchester), but this is based on a misidentification of Shoreham-by-Sea as Portus Adurni by Michael Drayton in the 17th century. Indeed, the River Adur, whose mouth has moved many times due to longshore drift and erosion, was also named from this misidentification. The actual etymology of Portslade may be portus- + -ladda, way to the port, where ladda is from the Old English for way, but this is conjectural at best.
The old name, Copperas Gap, for Portslade-by-Sea suggests that the coast was used for the production of copperas or green vitriol, a form of ferrous sulphate used extensively in the textile industry. The process took over six years and made use of iron pyrite-rich nodules that could be found in the strata of Sussex greensand stone that emerges at this point in the coast.
A part-finished assembly hall in Portslade became an Odeon Cinema about 1930 when George Coles, one of the Odeon chain's principal architects, adapted the original design.
Portslade-by-Sea was an urban district from the late 19th century to 1974, when it became part of the borough of Hove, later to become part of the city of Brighton and Hove. Portslade Town Hall is on Victoria Road, and is used as a venue for various functions.

When do you give up?
The book 'parenting your out of control teenager' is really helpful. It's the only book I've found that has examples of kid behaviors that are as out of control as what you're describing, and practical helpful parental responses described.
Does he have an allowance, a cell phone, access to a computer, wifi, ipod, friends, a radio, dessert, video games? All those are earned by staying within specifically defined parameters that are tailored to where he's at, so as to be agreed by all to be reasonably attainable.
It's always helpful to repeat in your mind '15 more months' and 'his choices, his consequences, his life' to mentally distance who you are from who he is and not get emotional when he gets pissed off that he's not getting his allowance this week b/c he didn't do his chores, or he's not getting his cell turned on today b/c he didn't go to school and home on time, or he's not getting friend/tv privileges b/c he has outstanding homework.
So sorry. You don't deserve this. He may come around later in life.
I think that if he is going to fail all his classes, you should take him to get his ged and make him get a job. If he's going to be disrespectful, then he needs to he disciplined. Who pays for that phone? I'm betting it's you, why does he even have it if he is so rude?
You don't give up. My younger sister was very out of control in her teens. She was arrested for DUI (my mom actually called the cops on her), she was sexually active, did drugs...you name it, she was doing it. She would pick fights with my mom several times a day. She put my parents through HELL. But they never gave up on her. They kept fighting, they kept talking, they kept grounding. She's 29 now, married and has a 6 six yr old dd. She has a very close relationship with my parents because they never gave up on her. I know it's hard, but you have to keep fighting this fight. It will get better eventually. Keep up with the consequences, it might not seem like they're working but your son will learn that no matter how horrible he is, he is loved unconditionally by his parents.
Good luck to you!!!
i wouldnt say give up...idk what i would have done if my parents gave up on me. take his phone away. when i was talking to someone my parents did not approve of, they tool my phone away. he obviously doesnt pay for it (and tell him that it might motivate him to get a job) you do and if he is going to abuse the PRIVELAGE(sp?) then he does not get it. the more he does not listen the more he gets taken away. im sure he did not pay for any of his things. bring him to a homeless shelter and have him ask them how many of them graduated high school. a lot of them will tell you they dropped out. AND what happened to the good old fashion grounding your kid?!?! im only 20 and i got grounded ALL the time...until i moved out when i was 17. no offense but i think your son should come before your man...if he cant handle it, he doesnt deserve you. dd1's father was a trouble maker....his mom gave up on him. cut him off completely...yeah hes in prison now.
Keep telling yourself that he is a teen who really dont know who he is just yet.Its a critical age of transformations that happen second to second.My son is 15 an I can certainly relate.Sometimes I have to check out emotionally for my sake but thats not saying give up on him.You have to guide him the best u can an hope for the best.My guess is he likes this girl and wants her acceptance and that may or may not be who he truly is.
Is there a scared straight program in your area?
I am sure that many will bash me for this answer....but I think you need to make YOURSELF and your HUSBAND a priority right now. Your son is having destructive behavior which will negatively impact everyone in the house.... I think you and you DH need to get marriage counseling or just talk and make a pact to stick together no matter what. If you both agree that your son is a problem, then you have no reason to fight about him. You should be brain storming and supporting each other for solutions. Fighting over your son is like fighting when the car breaks down or there is an earthquake... it doesn't help and will only make your situation worse. You need to stay calm and work together... just like you would for any other emergency, crisis or stressful situation.
As far as you son: #1 take his phone away... the other ideas people put all seem like good ideas to try.
Try not to give up on your son, but protect yourself too.... let him know you love him and push and push. The sad reality is, sometimes things do get to a 'give up' point... you are not there yet and hopefully never will be. One of the saddest interviews I have seen is when Amy Winehouse's dad said 'If my daughter wants to do drugs more than she wants to breathe properly... then so be it." "Giving up"... is mostly about realizing that he has the free-will to choose how to be... even if it is self-destructive....and there may be very little that you can actually do about it.
IT is also called counseling! You all need to get help. There is something amiss with you son and you can't give up on him.
He is still your child and under your roof, see what is available in your area for help and PLEASE get some. Losing your whole family isn't the answer and you and your husband have to be on board. It is hard but it can be done.
I know me, my husband and daughter are all trying the counseling thing to get to the root of our issues before they become bigger issues. Losing my daughter and my marriage isn't/wasn't an option.
We have to learn how to be more proactive instead of reactive.
Good Luck to you.

Steak Fingers
14 comments:
Oh my goodness! What memories you brought up with these! My dad made us finger steaks at least twice month growing up! I haven't had them in decades! Going on the menu for sure :-) Thanks Jamie!ReplyDelete
The lemon pepper seems a nice addition! Pinned, this is something the family will love {especially Dimitri ..lol} Thanks for sharing, Jamie !ReplyDelete
This is better than my plain old salt and peppered steak. Thank you for sharing.ReplyDelete
We may have met by chance...but we become friends by choice.
I had never heard of Steak Fingers in my life, only Chicken Fingers. I make Schnitzel from pounded steak, which we love at our house, and we do love us that Lemon Pepper, but have only used on chicken or fish.ReplyDelete
Steak fingers always make me think of Dairy Queen. When I make them mashed potatoes are also a must, which is strange since DQ doesn't have mashed potatoes, lol.ReplyDelete
Hi, Jamie! I was chatting with Evelyn after being out of blogging commission for two weeks time and she told me about you guys' new Sunday hop! Stopping by to follow you via GFC and ended up drooling over the Steak Fingers! I saw them and immediately thought "country cooking." LOLReplyDelete
Can't wait to link up with y'all Sunday! Would love to have you swing by my blog if you get a chance!
Kristy @ Shona Skye Creations
Looks good in the picture and I'll surely try this at home.ReplyDelete
My oldest daughter is such a carnivore. I bet she would love this!ReplyDelete
Sounds easy to make and a comfort food. Thank you for sharing your recipe on Foodie Friends Friday Linky Party. Make sure to come back on Sunday to vote for your favorite recipes!ReplyDelete
These look really good! They remind me of diner food also! Haven't had Steak Fingers in years! ThanksReplyDelete
Hi Jamie,ReplyDelete
We just love Steak Fingers, they are wonderful. Hope you are having a great weekend and thanks for sharing your awesome recipe with Full Plate Thursday.
Come Back Soon!
Miz Helen
We are not big beef eaters but this looks like it would be enjoyed by all. Can't wait to try it.ReplyDelete
I haven't had steak fingers in years. Like since I was a child! You made me smile serving the same thing with them every time. We're like that with certain dishes too...and I don't know why! Thank you for coming by this week. I was kind of afraid people would forget since I took some time off.ReplyDelete
My hubby would love these! He's a chicken-fried steak fan, and these look pretty similar. Yum! Thanks for sharing at OneCreativeMommy.com.ReplyDelete

|I (think I) mistakenly started on this when climbing Moonlight. There's a short fissure/crack not far off the ground, that is perhaps only 5.6+ but certainly R. So, Step Lively's P1 is not a great first pitch for a moderate leader.

|You know, Julie, you may have been on Moonlight. The traditional start to Moonlight is really lacking in pro until you reach the base of the left-facing corner.

Well, that's certainly what I thought at the time! :)
Most ropes/parties I've seen on Moonlight seem to get/scramble easily up to the ledge at ~10', step right around the left-facing corner at that level, then go up for ~10-20' before stepping back left into the corner proper. Or do what this guy's doing:
What I climbed was the same ~10' up, but ~15' left of the start of the left-facing corner, then face climbed up and over to the corner. It's the faint crack almost hidden behind leaves, on the left in the picture, at the same level as the climber shown.

|Your way is the way I've started Moonlight too. I remember a few steps up that you couldn't protect, and then an easy does it couple of moves to the corner. The first time I was there a person who seemed wise in the ways of the cliff told me it was the way to go. The other way you are talking about is Dick's 5.2 variation 1 start, isn't it?

|Climbed this the way it's written up on this page and it felt 9ish. The Grey Dick description and picture seems to have the climb blasting through the series of hanging corners and not going "straight left" (which seems the obvious way to go once you're up there). The way it climbs is more of a Moonlight variation, the Grey Dick write up has it taking a wholly independent line through the lichen between Moonlight and Erect Direction.

When it comes to location, location, location, embarking on site selection before optimizing the market is akin to putting the cart before the horse.
According to Rudy Nadilo, CEO of Woburn, Mass.-based GeoVue, which provides location-optimization software to retailers, launching the real estate process with optimization puts retailers in the driver's seat—and moves brokers over to the passenger position. "Too often, the development process within real estate is broker-led," said Nadilo. "It's reactive, propelled by brokers who offer up sites that are available and possible, but not necessarily optimal."
Location optimization—which involves putting together an expansion plan, plotting optimal locations and then pushing the plan out to the brokers in the field to find sites that fit—stands in stark contrast to the more standard site-selection process that sees brokers alerting their retail clients that a spot has opened up near, say, a Home Depot.
"When you optimize a market, you are creating a comprehensive master plan. Not only are you making sure that you are lessening cannibalization, but you are packing in the optimum number of stores you can put in. And you can't do that randomly," said Nadilo.
Location optimization has helped Dedham, Mass.-based Papa Gino's Holding Corp., which owns and operates restaurant chains D'Angelo Grilled Sandwiches and Papa Gino's Pizzeria, to fuel growth in an efficient and targeted manner. According to Tony Padulo, senior VP of franchise development, current expansion efforts are continuing along an East Coast path.
"D'Angelo has about 180 restaurants throughout New England and [we have now entered] Orlando, Fla.," said Padulo. "Papa Gino's has about 160 units throughout New England, in such major markets as Boston; Providence [Rhode Island]; Springfield [Mass.]; Hartford [Conn.]; and Portland [Maine]." The first D'Angelo franchise in Orlando opened last fall, with another scheduled to open in the fall of 2007—which has propelled sister chain Papa Gino's to follow into Florida and up the East Coast.
"In addition to expanding our D'Angelo program within Orlando, we will also be seeking Papa Gino's franchisees in the market shortly," said Padulo. "Within the next five years, both brands will move into most of Florida, as well as the Carolinas and upstate New York."
That plan wasn't committed to paper without a lot of research—and location optimization. "It [location optimization] has given us in-sights into which markets to prioritize and why," explained Padulo. "Additionally, the software assists us in determining how many restaurants we should open in a given market, where they should be located, and how to prioritize them."
No market model that emerges from optimization is going to work out perfectly every time. Just because software reveals that an ideal site is on Fifth and Main doesn't mean a space at that intersection is available. "If you find, and qualify, a site that's nearby, say at Fourth and Main," said GeoVue's Nadilo, "you tell the system that Fifth just became Fourth, and everything simultaneously adjusts." The network shifts to allow for—and optimize—reality. And it puts the retailer right where he should be: in the driver's seat.

Brenden Nel - SuperSport
According to the supersport.com website, Pienaar and Frans Steyn were both in a similar position to Lambie at the beginning of their careers as the Sharks moved the two of them around the backline that it was difficult for them to settle on a position.
It hampered both in the early stages of their Springbok careers and especially Pienaar was seen as a bench option because of his ability to play scrumhalf, flyhalf and fullback.
In both cases it took a move overseas - Steyn to Racing Metro in France and Pienaar to Ulster in Ireland - for both players to finally settle on their preferred positions.
Now with the Sharks shifting Lambie around in the backline, it can be argued it has stunted the talented youngster's game and he has been unable to cement a position in the Springbok backline.
Despite playing for the Boks at flyhalf last year, Lambie played most of the Super Rugby at fullback, with Frederic Michalak employed at flyhalf by the Sharks. Despite his versatility, the two young flyhalves in the Bok squad – Johan Goosen and Elton Jantjies are seen as ahead of him for the number 10 jersey, while he continues to sit on the bench behind Zane Kirchner in the race for the fullback spot.
But now with Goosen injured, there is an opportunity for Lambie - who said he was frustrated by the bench time in New Zealand - to throw his name into the hat for the No 10 jersey as well on the November tour.
Pienaar said the quicker Lambie makes a decision on his future, the better it will be for his career. The Bok halfback called on the youngster to decide where he wants to play and chat to the Sharks to ensure he gets prolonged game time there.
" I learnt a lot in my time there from Brent Russell, and you can remember how he was shifted around in several different positions. When you're young, you just want to play but at some point you have to make a decision as to where you want to play. Pat has an unbelievable amount of talent, and he can play flyhalf, centre and fullback but it is a difficult situation," Pienaar told supersport.com
"It's always great to have a guy like that on the bench for coaches because he gives you so many options."
However, Pienaar did admit he had to leave South Africa to settle down, and wouldn't like to see a similar situation for Lambie. It has only been in the last season that Pienaar has finally found some consistent form, much of it because Ulster use him only at halfback in the European season.
"Pat is a wise young man who has a good head on his shoulders and I'm sure if he sits down he will make the right decisions about his future."
With Michalak gone, there is a golden opportunity for Lambie to play flyhalf in the 2013 Super Rugby series, but rumours that Elton Jantjies is negotiating with the Sharks as well as Western Province may see him shift back to fullback if the Lions flyhalf comes to Durban.
The Sharks already have Louis Ludik and Riaan Viljoen who can play fullback, with Jaco Taute also in negotiations to possibly join them in 2013.

This weekend we hosted our 3rd Annual Halloween party, and it was a blast. I'm not a Halloween superfan, but we hosted the first Halloween party in the neighborhood three years ago, and since then it's become our "thing."
Cory and I have celebrated ten Halloweens together, but we've never dressed up in a couple's costume, which I think is probably kind of weird. To make matters weirder, I normally do coordinate my costumes with my best friends. This year, Emily and I were Beauty Pageant Rejects, Miss Behavior and Miss Demeanor.
Fun fact: this is my prom dress and I was fucking thrilled that it fit this mom bod.
Hosting a party on a Friday night has its perks, but the only downside is having to all last minute stuff on a workday. Thankfully, Cory and I did a little bit decorating and cleaning every night during the week after Jack went to bed, so there wasn't too much to get done before our friends started arriving around 8:00.
I've got to hand it to our friends, because everyone's costumes were on-point, and out of the 50 people who came, there was not one duplicate!
Life, handing me lemons (and hard lemonade)
My friend/sorority sister/college roommate actually lives in the same neighborhood, and I was so pumped that she and her husband were able to make it!
It was Jack's first night away (an entirely separate post is coming on THAT) so I had one drink the whole night. A few friends were like, WOO! A night without the baby DRINK UP! And I was like, WOO! I still have to get the baby in the morning! I never thought I'd say this, but I actually didn't mind pumping the breaks on the alcohol. I feel like an old lady, but it felt great waking up without one trace of a hangover. Cory and I both felt so good that we swooped up Jack and spent the day in Farmville walking the High Bridge Trail before coming home to hand out candy.
It was a fantastic weekend from start to finish!
I hope you guys had a fabulous weekend!

A team of researchers from the University of Cambridge have started creating an online database to categorize the miracles found in saints' lives that were written in Britain and Ireland between 500 and 1300.
Known as Mapping Miracles, the project is run by Robert Gallagher, Julianne Pigott and Sarah Waidler of the University of Cambridge along with Jennifer Key of the University of St.Andrews. By developing this database, they hope to show what were the similarities and differences in the miracles recorded in saints' lives, even those that were written in other different parts of the British Isles and centuries apart.

teamm8, the Australian underwear company, has taken to mimicking the feel of amateur porn site audition videos to pitch its wares. Though does this have the feel of CorbinFisher.com, or a creepy uncle?
teamm8, the Australian underwear company, has taken to mimicking the feel of amateur porn site audition videos to pitch its wares. Though does this have the feel of CorbinFisher.com, or a creepy uncle?
that's the worst part of gay porn, thankfully i have a mute button. but that definitely comes off more buffalo bill than sean cody.
super awkward… but he's really hot… but the underwear's not that hot… i just feel weird after that.
Provocative material but crappy underwear. They accentuated neither the front nor the rear. Odd.
This is an homage to the 90s Calvin Klein ads where they spoofed homemade sex interview tapes. They were banned.
Who remembers that "Diff'rent Strokes" episode where Arnold and his friend were lured into a bike salesman's house to take "special pictures?"
Yeah. This reminds me of that.
Wow, creepy.
The way it's shot and the inclusion of those weird ambient noises makes this feel like he's being held against his will and ordered to strip at gunpoint.
I've never seen someone who signed up for something so personal act that reluctant. I don't care how attractive the dude is, the clip is seriously creepy.
I don't like the manties! But if people do…that's their thing. PEACELUVNBWILD!
18!? yeah…sure…
@Kevin Pratt: Yep. And tho creepy, that commercial was way hot.
I am aware of the huge time difference between USA and Austalia but …..19 years old……….mmmmmm?
i forgot to say he is way hot
I'm just happy to see that his crotch isn't stuffed. A grower, not a shower.
That was pretty hot! That model is incredible! The swim trunks was the worst part. It was all about the mystery of what that camera man wanted the model to do next.
ok! So I think this is definately clever and VERY sexy. It is clearly pure genius marketing and totally staged. Its a homage to the 80's banned CK ads, which although clever were not as hot as this. The tats work for me, and people just see it for what it is. SEX. Thumbs up teamm8. Keep it coming
p.s.I forgt to say that I think it is clever how what the guy is there for is never explained. It could be an audition for anything, Its a projection test. You project what you want onto it.clever
The guy is really nice to look at, but yeah, definitely leaning more "creepy uncle" than "Corbin Fisher." The model/actor played the 'reluctant' role pretty well- at one point I thought he was going to.. like.. start crying and begging for his mom. (Which could also have been hot ;)
yeh… I get the POINT… but the execution is all off… its more terrorist video than amateur porn audition….. there was no sexuality in it.. just the tension.. and that "swimwear" was awful… but yeah.. the dude was fine!
The only shock is how there's nothing in his underwear. Is it a female-to-male tranny? Where's the dick?

MACQUARIE Bank's push to oust the chairman and chief executive of Coalworks has been dumped after the NSW miner said it will accept a takeover offer from Whitehaven Coal.
Coalworks shareholders met in Sydney today to vote on Macquarie Bank's resolutions to remove their chairman Wayne Mitchell and chief executive Andrew Firek.
But Mr Mitchell told the meeting Macquarie had withdrawn the resolutions after the Coalworks board announced earlier today it would recommend to shareholders an improved takeover bid from Whitehaven Coal.
Whitehaven had amended its offer to take the value of the bid from $142 million to $145.6 million.
Whitehaven, which itself is the target of a takeover offer from its major shareholder Nathan Tinkler, also removed all conditions from its offer.
"The board believes the higher value achieved and the removal of all conditions by the bidder represents sufficient value and certainty for Coalworks shareholders to accept the offer," Coalworks said today.
Macquarie's move was motivated by concerns around a $17.4 million capital raising in April that resulted in Asian commodities trader Noble Group becoming a nine per cent Coalworks shareholder and its strategic adviser without any tendering.
Macquarie also criticised the company for tripling executive remuneration to $3.1 million last year.
Coalworks' three major assets include coking and thermal coal projects, Ferndale in the Hunter Valley, Vickery South in the Gunnedah Basin and Oakland North in NSW's south.

favorite midnight snack
When I've got the munchies in the middle of the night, I'm satiated by two eggs, over medium, with a slice of American cheese on white toast with a little mayo.
I fry the eggs in a little butter, and sprinkle them in white pepper, onion powder and sea salt. I let the whites get crispy, them flip them over and let them sit just long enough for the Kraft Single to start to melt. If you time it just right the yolks are still runny enough for it to drip off of your sandwich.
sounds good my friend
your gonna have to make me one of those some day
for me when i get the munchies...
i can't make anything fancy like that so i settle for some nachos or ice cream
my wife wont let me stay up til midnight anymore....She doesn't mind when I disappear for 5 days to go hunting so I guess I can't complain.
Summer sausage and colby cheese. Slice, dice and enjoy......:D
The souls of my enemies. Mwaa hahahaha!
whatever's in the fridge, but i usually dont have sh*t in there, so i settle for some water lol
You should probably get married.
Me I got for the classic PB&J. That is my staple for late night snaking. If I really get hungry I will sneak out to the Wawa and get a Cheese Stake with extra cheese (Provolone) and extra meat. A bag of nacho cheese doritos and a mt. dew....
All I can say about yours matt is ewwwwwwwwwwwwww. I don't like eggs all that much but the sight of runny aborted chickens will have me barfing in no time.
Have to agree with the runny yolk....BY FAR my favorite part of an egg sandwich....(or eggs for that matter)

Hey guys I'm new to C and relatively new to programming, but I'm getting an error I've never seen before. All my research on this board and online has to do with something called SDL but I dont know what that is, therefore I dont use it....ha.
Anyways my code is below, its a simple linked list(Which i probably botched) and it reads from a file, adds information, and writes to the file again. I havent done the writing part yet, should be cake though.
Yikes I forgot to post the error. lol.
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1561: entry point must be defined
Also im looking at the fputs function to write, and im thinking that it isnt right because p is a FILE pointer but its set to read. I think I need to initialize and use q for that.
Also does fputs() let me use "" to add \t for formatted file writing?
John Williams 99.80 Average.
Code is below:
Code:#include<stdio.h> #include<string.h> #include<stdlib.h> struct Student{ float ave; char name[128]; struct Student* next; }*head = (Student *)malloc(sizeof(Student)); int main() { struct Student* curr =(Student *)malloc(sizeof(Student)); float i = 0.0; int count = 0, x, k; FILE* p = fopen("studentListInFile.txt","r"); FILE* q = fopen("studentListInFile2.txt", "w"); if (curr == 0){ printf("out of memory\n"); return -1;} head->next = NULL; curr=head; curr->next = NULL; while(!feof(p)) { fgets(curr->name, 40, p); curr->ave = 0.0; curr->next = (Student *)malloc(sizeof(Student)); curr = curr->next; curr->next=NULL; count++; } curr = head; for (x = 0; x<count; x++) { printf("Enter the final average for the student: "); scanf("%f", i); curr->ave = i; curr = curr->next; } curr = head; for(k = 0; k< count; k++) { fputs(curr->name, q); fprintf(q, "\t%f\0", curr->ave); curr = curr->next; } curr=head; for(x=0;x<count;x++) { free(curr); curr = curr->next; } free(head); fclose(p); fclose(q); return 0; }

Participation and Worship
Since my post from earlier this morning was about worship, I thought that I would continue to topic by pointing out another (very good) post on the subject.
Mark (from "Called Out in Kansas") recently attended a 2-day conference about worship. After returning, he wrote a few posts, including one called "After the Worship Conference." He this post Mark also comments on my post "The Purpose of Participation" as well as Dan's post "Stirring Up."
In this last paragraph, especially, Mark adds alot of thought and insight to this discussion:
So, here's the situation. I've been a vocal proponent of participatory style meetings, and very critical of traditional church models. I still believe that the New Testament model is participatory, and that a single pastorate system is unbiblical, and harmful to the maturity of the body. But, as pointed out by Alan and Dan in the above posts, just attending participatory meetings doesn't guarantee that the end result will be any different than in the system we just left. My concern for this movement, if you want to call it that, is that we will recreate a system, and never achieve the maturity of the body described in Ephesians 4. Like Alan said, the goal is to become like Christ, or to literally become His body and bride, fully matured. Will meeting in a circle instead of in rows with a pulpit bring that about? Unfortunately, in and of itself, no. The question I now pose, after reading these posts, is what do we do IN these meetings that brings maturity? Certainly Hebrews 10:24-25 gives some insight, stating that we are to consider one another to stir up love and good works, which I interpret to mean we are to esteem others higher than ourselves, and care more for their needs than for our own. But I am not sure that this even gives the whole picture.
So, is it important to understand why we meet together? Why or why not? (I hope so… that's what my PhD research and dissertation is all about.)

I have had further thought on this issue, since your comment on my post, as well as a comment by Arthur Sido. What I have come to understand is that, when believers strive purposefully to express community, there will be a lot of dying to self. The example of Christ is an example of ultimate service, and considering others above ourselves. The more we practice this with one another, the more we die to our flesh, and the more we mature. We can't NOT mature when we are endeavoring to serve each other more and more, day by day. I am sure there is a little over-simplification here, but this is my latest thought. I'm curious what you think.
If it's not important to understand WHY we meet together, then meeting together wouldn't be much more important.

The post-election session of Congress started off with a bang on Monday. Starting at 10am, 12 students from Brandeis University held a flash phone bank from the school dining hall. At the end of the day they had generated 225 constituents calls into Senator Brown's office in support of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" repeal. In one of the calls the receptionist actually knew the Brandeis students! The receptionist said the office had received hundreds of calls and people were noticing our efforts.
And last night, Clark University students sat down to write letters to Senator Brown. Clark University is perhaps best known as the setting of Sigmund Freud's lecture series on psychoanalysis. Now the statue of Freud serves as a fun post letter writing back ground.
Student activism continues tonight with a SLDN panel discussion at Wheaton College.

Police, fire community celebrate cancer patient's 7th birthday
At the age of 7, Tyler Seddon of Burrillville received an honor Thursday that some grown men wait decades for. He became the chief of police for a day.
"It's an important day. It's an event. It's a chance of a lifetime," said Lisa Rabideau of the Burrillville Police Department.
Like most police officers, Tyler isn't a big fan of on-camera interviews. But don't let that fool you, this is one brave kid. Tyler's battling leukemia for the second time.
He's a big law enforcement fan, so before his birthday his mother, Rachel Seddon, asked that local fire and police officers send him a card. They decided to do a whole lot more than that.
The 7-year-old's birthday became a huge celebration. Hundreds of firefighters, police officers and first responders from several states attended a birthday party at Wright's Farm restaurant.
"I expected maybe just our locals to send a couple cards. I think we've probably gotten 800 cards so far and I still have bins to go through," Seddon said.
Tyler's story quickly spread across the Internet, attracting attention from all over the world. His mother had to rent a storage unit to fit all the presents sent to Tyler.
"The world needs a story and a happy ending," said Deborah Hanna-Kearnui's, whose father was a police officer killed in the line of duty.
She came from Massachusetts to give his jacket to Tyler.
"The story touched me. I had lung cancer in November of 2007, so I'm a cancer survivor and it's a fight every day," Hanna-Kearnui said.
Mike Jolin gave the medal he earned in Afghanistan.
"I think it reminds us of our own youth, our own dreams, the innocence of things that we can do and hope to do," Jolin said.
Rachel Seddon said she hopes all this love and support will bring her son the gift he needs this year, a bone marrow transplant that could save his life.

The proposed Alliance Ground Surveillance (AGS) system for NATO was scaled back when program officials quietly dropped plans to convert four Airbus A321 airliners after deeming it too expensive. NATO also cancelled development of the Transatlantic Cooperative AGS Radar (TCAR), which would have been the main airborne sensor for the AGS. Critics have long questioned the affordability of the AGS plan, which has been under consideration for more than 10 years. NATO has established a new, lower-cost ceiling of $3.3 billion for the system and delayed the operational date until 2013. The airborne element will now comprise only Global Hawk high-altitude UAVs, carrying the new MP-RTIP (multi-platform radar technology insertion program) sensor, which is being developed in the U.S. Northrop Grumman is the prime contractor for both Global Hawk and MP-RTIP. A company spokesman agreed that NATO had now adopted an "off-the-shelf, U.S. solution," but he noted that European industry would still be partners in the development of ground stations for AGS. Northrop Grumman expects to receive a sole-source RFP from NATO early next year and secure a development contract by the end of next year. Meanwhile, the U.S. Air Force is considering how to mesh the NATO requirement into its own production program for the MP-RTIP sensor and the Block 40 Global Hawk.

You do realize that cartoons can be visually remastered to look more vibrant, cleaner , and up-to-date, yes? That's what happened with both the Kid Rhino and Shout! Factory DVDs of the G1 cartoon. You think they just used nothing but the original broadcast masters? Of course not. They refined the video and audio of the G1 cartoon to make it be the best it could be. The same was done for the G1 movie in its various special edition DVDs, but that's probably as best as its gonna get. After all, the UK DVD release looked exactly the same as the Sony U.S. DVD release.SlyTF1 wrote:Ultra Markus wrote:RoboTopia wrote::CON: This is very interesting, But I would be even more interested in a TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE 25TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION SPECIAL BLU-RAY RELEASE!!!!?!

Hendrik Goudt
Dutch, c. 1582–1648
After Adam Elsheimer. German, 1578–1610
The Mocking of Ceres, 1610
Engraving on paper
The classical story depicted here from book
five of Ovid' s Metamorphoses illustrates
a scene from the myth of the Earth goddess Ceres whose daughter Persephone
was abducted by Pluto to become his queen in the underworld. When Ceres
learned that Persephone was missing, she searched everywhere for traces
of her daughter. As she wandered the earth, she came to a small cottage
and asked for a drink of water. An old woman appeared at the doorway,
offering the goddess a sweet brew garnished with toasted barley. Ceres
drank readily, and when a little boy appeared and saw a strange
woman at the cottage door, he mocked her for drinking so greedily.
Incensed at this insult, the goddess tossed her drink at the boy,
turning him into a lizard.
This engraving, created when Goudt was living in
Rome, was dedicated to the Cardinale Scipione Borghese, an avid collector
of Northern European artists. It is evident that it became quite popular
in its time since many copies were made and it is documented in the
collections of major contemporary artists like Rubens and Gerard Dou.
Like Van de Velde, Goudt used tenebrism (a strong contrast of
light and dark created by centralized sources of light) to establish
a mysterious atmosphere. This was the second of only seven prints engraved
by Hendrik Goudt. All of Goudt's prints were copies after paintings
by the German artist Adam Elsheimer with whom he lived in Rome. Since
the story of The
Mocking of Ceres was never specifically defined as a night scene,
the choice to turn it into one created a way for Elsheimer, who must
have been influenced by Caravaggio, to implement tenebristic effects
to make the scene more ominous and mysterious. The encroaching vines
that envelop the torch-lit scene make it very intimate if not almost
claustrophobic. Nature's, and thus Ceres; power seems further
emphasized by the diagonal composition in the central portion of the
print, defined by a line from the broken branch looming over Ceres
to the boy's tilted head.

ARCHIE TESTS FORMULA LE MANS LMP2 ORECA CAR AT MAGNY COURS Archie took another massive leap in his Le Mans career by getting behind the wheel of a prototype sportscar for the first time today when he tested a Formula Le Mans LMP2 Oreca ...
Archie took another massive leap in his Le Mans career by getting behind the wheel of a prototype sportscar for the first time today when he tested a Formula Le Mans LMP2 Oreca car.
The 19 year old from Basingstoke is looking for the best career move for 2011. Formula Le Mans was by the created by the Automobile Club de l'Ouest (ACO), organisers of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, as part of a ladder system for young and upcoming drivers in endurance racing, so was a logical choice for Archie to explore.
Team Hope Polevision Racing ran the Oreca 6.2 litre V8 protoype at Magny Cours today and Archie took the wheel for 30 laps. The Formula Le Mans Cup runs in the main Le Mans Series races and is designed as a low cost introduction class.
Archie Hamilton
"I'm very lucky to have several options for series to race in next year. Formula Le Mans looked a good choice bearing in mind that my goal is Le Mans. I was very hopeful that it would feel right but it was more than that -- it was amazing! The car felt very strong and powerful but the braking was fantastic and it all just worked brilliantly. I know I have a lot to learn and this felt like an ideal place to push myself and learn without going too far. It's now a case of finding the budget to secure a seat with Hope Polevision Racing or one of the other top teams. Racing in the Le Mans Series itself would be a dream and a big step closer to my dream of winning Le Mans itself."
Stuart Hall, driver coach
"Archie did a very good job today. He had a relatively short time in the car to take in a lot of information. He was given a brief and he fulfilled it very proficiently. He was consistent and learning lap after lap. The team was very pleased with his attitude, feedback and the way he worked with the engineers, which shows he's not just got the pace but the intelligence to be a successful endurance racer. From what I saw today Formula Le Mans is definitely a good place for Archie to be aiming."

It's been referenced on "Glee," Olivia Wilde's T-shirt and even turned into a nickname for a college football player, but the voice behind the wildly popular honey badger meme is just getting started.
It began in January of last year when, intrigued by a National Geographic video about the ferocious honey badger, Randall, a former TV extra who grew up on the Lower East Side, was inspired to add his own riveting commentary.
"I couldn't believe that this insane and amazing video had such drab and dull narration," he says. "I said, 'You know what? This video needs a remix.' "
This son of a cameraman for Mutual of Omaha's "Wild Kingdom" was well-versed in the art of making animal videos. As a child, his parents encouraged him to talk through his father's wildlife footage and explain what he saw.
His narration, which strikes a hilarious balance between sarcastic wonderment and exasperation, was an instant hit. The "Crazy Nastyass Honey Badger" video currently clocks in at more than 42 million views.
It's inspired ringtones, apps and even the "Honey Badger Don't Care: Randall's Guide to Crazy, Nastyass Animals" book, out now.
Randall's YouTube channel currently houses more than 20 similarly narrated videos, including footage about the Great White Sea-Monster, Platypus and Stiffy Goat, and he plans to keep adding more.
Randall, who goes only by his first name (because he hates his last) calls himself "the Cher of the animal world," and initially preferred to stay completely anonymous — because "a narrator should be heard and never seen." But eventually his iconic, if not exaggerated voice began to give him away.
"I'd be at the drive-through asking for fries and a milkshake and I'd hear, 'Honey Badger?!' " he says.
The opportunity to go on a book tour convinced him to drop his veil of secrecy, and now a new partnership with AOL/Berman Braun's PawNation is allowing him to step out even further.
He'll have his own column and original video series on the newly relaunched site, where he'll discuss important issues facing animals all over the world.
The first episode of the video series, which was shot in Tompkins Square Park, will go live Wednesday.
The column and video series will cover animals, and have a sense of humor, but it'll also allow Randall an opportunity to be more serious. He's already written about the importance of adopting pets — a cause that's near and dear to his heart.
"When I was growing up my parents loved animals. It was less about going to the shelter and adopting an pet than it was just finding one on the street and bringing them home. My dad would always come back from work and find a new hamster or kitten," he says.
His parents' big lesson was one in responsibility.
"They let me have whatever pet I wanted, so long as I knew that I was responsible for taking care of it," he explains. "That's the big problem today; so many parents adopt an animal for their child and it ends up getting totally ignored."
It's probably tough to ignore his own four-legged brood at home, which consists of four cats — Laurel, Hardy, Beany and Cecil — and a guinea pig aptly named Guinea. The full house serves to remind him of why he's in this business: "We're not alone on this planet," says Randall. "We share it with animals and we have to respect that."

The failure of civil rights leaders to address "Wall Street criminality" illustrates how money has corrupted American culture, according to Professor Cornel West.
At book launching event on August 24 following the 50th Anniversary March on Washington, West condemned mainstream civil rights leaders for ignoring many the deeper issues affecting poor and minority communities.
"The fundamental difference between 1963 and 2013 is these days everything and everybody is up for sale," he said. "It's a market-driven culture. Just dangle enough money, dangle enough possessions, dangle enough assets, and folks will come running — which means we don't get too much integrity, honesty, decency, and virtue. You get folks obsessed with having assets, folks obsessed with having wealth and position."

Last Thursday and Friday, bank and other financial services stocks got a big bump during the biggest two-day market rally since 1987. The rally started with reports of a federally-financed bailout of firms saddled with hundreds of billions of dollars in bad mortgage loans.
But over the weekend, Morningstar analyst Jaime Peters said people started to think about how fuzzy the details of the plan are at this point. "There are so many questions surrounding what's going to be bought," Peters said. "Who's eligible to buy it? What price are they going to be able to buy it at? What does that mean for banks that are going to participate? Aren't going to participate? There are so many questions surrounding what this ultimately could be, that we're starting to see a little bit of nerves."
Nerves send stock prices down.
JPMorgan Chase & Co. advised clients to sell regional banks and lock in recent profits. The company said the government's temporary guarantee on money market funds creates new competition for banks, and the bailout could lead to higher taxes, making it tougher for consumers to pay back loans.
Several analysts downgraded ratings on TCF, US Bank and Wells Fargo. Some did so while they said the banks are basically sound and should readily weather the current storm battering the financial sector.
Sandler O'Neill & Partners warned the government might buy bad debt at deep-deep discounts, resulting in further losses for banks selling the assets. The firm said the banking industry still faces failures and lower profitability.
Certainly, with unemployment rising and consumers feeling increasingly squeezed, analyst Thane Bublitz with Thrivent Asset Management said more loan woes could be awaiting banks.
"There's growing concern that the consumer may run into more and more problems.," Bublitz said.
If things do get worse for area banks, Bublitz said he expects TCF would get hit first.
"The concern there is their exposure to, as they have said it, Joe Lunch Bucket," Bublitz said. "There's more of a blue-collar focus on their bank, which could be a little bit more of an issue if the consumer starts to have problems."
TCF has had problems with home equity loans, especially in tough markets like Detroit.
But Stifel Nicolaus banking analyst Ben Crabtree said TCF's problems with those loans seem to have peaked. And, Crabtree said TCF, like most other banks rooted in the Midwest, is sound.
"Unless you have the view that we're going to slip into something like a depression, the banks in the Upper Midwest are in pretty good shape," Crabtree said. "They typically don't have subprime loans in their portfolio [or] on their balance sheet. They're making money."
Just not as much as the banks or Wall Street would like, though.
Crabtree thinks the federal bail-out of troubled mortgage lenders will likely avoid any Depression-like financial meltdown. But Crabtree said a bailout isn't going to rev up the economy the way banks would like.
Crabtree believes it certainly won't fix the housing industry, which is so important to lenders.
"It's really not going to cause a rebound in housing values," Crabtree said. "It's not going to create new equity in what people have been calling the housing ATM, the ability to tap your equity to buy cars and things like that."
But the region's big three banks appear strong enough to get through the current industry turmoil.
Morningstar's Peters said the long-term prospects for Wells Fargo, TCF and US Bank are good.
"Those three are really in the upper echelons of banks as far as financial health is going," Peters. "And as a result they are likely to be survivors of this mess that we're going through right now and probably will emerge stronger on the other side than when they entered into it."
Indeed the banks may well survive the latest industry crisis. US Bank and Wells Fargo are actually often mentioned as likely buyers of weaker banks. But along the way, there will no doubt be concerns about how the banks' profits --and stock prices -- may be harmed by the sins of their less-prudent peers.
