Be a hero on your own time (VIDEO) When McDonald's employee Nigel Haskett interceded to stop a man who was beating a woman in the restaurant, the assailant went outside, retrieved a gun from his car and shot Haskett – "multiple times," as the employee stood at the door to keep the assailant from re-entering the restaurant. $300,000 in medical bills later, McDonald's insurance says no dice: "we have denied this claim in its entirety as it is our opinion that Mr. Haskett's injuries did not arise out of or within the course and scope of his employment."

"Ice hockey is a form of disorderly conduct in which the score is kept." - Doug Larson
Like hockey fights ? Like the movie Slapshot? Want to see the real Chiefs? Les Chiefs is a documentary on the toughest team in the Quebec Semi-Pro Hockey League. There can be 10 fights in a single period. Goalies fight. Coaches fight. Some fans fight in the stands with the players who live just yards away, in a ramshackle apartment in the stadium (formerly a ramshackle storage closet).
Other fans lovingly craft belts in the belief that hockey is a religion and The Chiefs are its avatars. And players players question, even as they sign up for underground boxing matches and run up 100 to 1 penalty minute to goal ratios, whether they're hockey players or circus side shows.

Fighting Hate with Ridicule
Ohio Senator: Bar adoptions by the GOP ---In response to Ohio Senator Hood's bill to bar adoption by gays and lesbians, one Senator uses humor to counter hate: ...To further lampoon Hood's bill, Hagan wrote in his mock proposal that ``credible research' shows that adopted children raised in Republican households are more at risk for developing ``emotional problems, social stigmas, inflated egos, and alarming lack of tolerance for others they deem different than themselves and an air of overconfidence to mask their insecurities.'
However, Hagan admitted that he has no scientific evidence to support the above claims.
Just as ``Hood had no scientific evidence' to back his assertion that having gay parents was detrimental to children, Hagan said. ...
"She's done a lot of good."
Laurel Hester, RIP --because she and her partner fought, New Jersey police and fire department employees can now name anyone--not just a spouse--as a beneficiary for pension rights, helping to protect those they love after they're gone. Just one person who made a difference.

TUAW's Daily iPad App: Pocket RPG
Crescent Moon Games made the excellent Aralon for iOS in the past, and that was a full-fledged RPG, featuring a whole world to explore and lots of gear to collect and quests to complete. Now, the company's gone back to the fantasy well to deliver another hack-and-slash style RPG game, though this one is a little simpler (and a little more focused on just the dungeons). Pocket RPG is exactly what it sounds like: A colorful dungeon-crawler with three classes, a fun and slick style and some great dual-stick gameplay.
If there's an issue with this one, it's probably that things are a little too simple. Each level is its own contained world, which means you're leveling up what's basically a separate character in each. Gameplay itself is pretty mindless, too -- there are a few special encounters to break things up, but you're pretty much just using a few different abilities over and over against the enemy hordes.
Still, Pocket RPG is plenty of fun, and the game's being updated steadily with new features (not to mention that it comes with full Game Center integration, and it looks particularly great on the iPad). Right now, the title's on sale for just US $4.99, and if you enjoy plumbing through dungeons of all kinds (and come on, who doesn't?), it's an excellent experience.

Shoe Trends From Fall 2013 Fashion Week
6 Standout Shoe Trends to Look Forward to This Fall
It's not our fault that there is only one month left of Summer! But can we look on the bright side? It's time to talk about the spectacular shoe trends from the Fall 2013 runways, which means they are hitting stores right about now. Of course there were the overarching styles, like pointy-toed pumps, ankle-strap heels, and Winter boots, but we also saw many microtrends that are definitely worth noting. Silhouettes like the sandal boot popped up at 3.1 Phillip Lim, Kenneth Cole, and Kenzo, while the power of the menswear-inspired loafer reigned supreme at Tommy Hilfiger, Tory Burch, and Marni. For the print-lover, designers like Roberto Cavalli and Erdem offered up sweet florals and powerful animal patterns, and the edgy-cool boots at Versace and Chanel spoke to our inner style renegade.

Clarius Entertainment has acquired Us rights to Benaroya Pictures and The Genre Company's thriller Cell starring John Cusack (upcoming Love & Mercy, Lee Daniels' The Butler) and Oscar-nominated Samuel L. Jackson (upcoming Kingsman: The Secret Service, Django Unchained).
The film is based on the best-selling apocalyptic novel by Stephen King.
When a powerful signal is broadcast across mobile networks worldwide, cell phone users' minds are instantly and dangerously re-programmed. Heading north through New England in search of his wife and son, Clay Riddell (Cusack) is joined by a group of survivors hoping to fend off the bloodthirsty and hyper-connected "phoners."
Set to be a wide theatrical release later this year, Cell also stars Isabelle Fuhrman (The Hunger Games) and Golden Globe winner Stacy Keach (Nebraska, The Bourne Legacy).
The film is directed by Tod "Kip" Williams (Paranormal Activity 2). The announcement was made today by the film's producers Michael Benaroya and Richard Saperstein. »

Get ready stateside filmgoers, because the "phoners" (aka "crazies") are coming to the Us. Stephen King fans know that the master of macabre doesn't like using cell phones. His 2006 novel, Cell, is a cautionary tale about what can go wrong by pressing portable phones to our ears and keeping them close at hand in our pockets, and its unflinching subject matter contains flocks of murderous lunatics that would be right at home in Danny Boyle's 28 Days Later, George A. Romero's The Crazies, or Simon Clark's Blood Crazy.
We knew this unique King novel was getting the adaptation treatment, with King co-writing the screenplay and John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson in the lead roles, but we're now one big step closer to seeing it on the silver screen, as Clarius Entertainment has acquired the Us rights to the movie.
Slated to hit theaters this year, »

Anyone have a low limit of what they'll accept? Do you make exceptions to your rule? Do you ever publish anything that's rejected for PV only? What do you do with things that you decide to pull?
Does AC usually pay for product reviews, particularly of food stuffs? I had an article turned down for upfront payment but saying they still would like to publish it.
I ended up resubmitting it non-exclusive for page views. But now I wonder if maybe I should have resubmitted it with the "product review" in the title instead in hopes of getting an up-front payment. -Pam |

Please Register or Log in to Remove this Advertisement! A top 5 pick is expected to be a game one starter. I would be disappointed if the felt otherwise
getting back on point, is there anyone that thinks the hot crap drafted after Benson(notice how no one dared answer that question) would have done better? Anyone really think w/Turner/Martz/Tice the WR's and the OL that Rogers really would have developped into the qb he is now in Chicago? Is there a reason anyone actually still responds to ChiCityBears trolling?
You must have loved Benson then. Benson could have expected to start. There's no problem there. He should have just kept his mouth shut and been respectful of those in front of him. Especially after the longest rookie holdout in Bears history. Forte had the exact right attitude. "This is a great opportunity to come in and make a mark, I know their running back situation and I have a chance to come in and compete. Nothing is going to be given to me and I know I am going to have to come in and work hard, but it's a good chance for me to show that I can play in this League and do well and become a great running back in the NFL." - Matt Forte
I wanted Edwards, or if he was gone BMW, or if they both were gone Alex Barron because we needed a LT. Yes, all those choices sucked, but the 2005 draft was terribly scouted and very weak at the top. I knew we had a need at RB, and I wanted Frank Gore for that role in the second round. My first response in this thread is that Rodgers would not be the same guy he is if the Bears had gotten a hold of him.
In reference I Forte, he was never asked when he would be starting. If he was, his answer might have been the same as Benson. But we will never know
but that's the point, the whole top of the draft sucked, Benson was just one of many, blaming JA for picking him over the rest of the garbage is like blaming him for choosing death by shotgun or bazooka, both are going to kill you and leave a giant mess.
I agree 100% with ya. You didn't see Walter Payton coming in blowing crap like Ced. He was respectful (hell he cried after his first Bears game because he felt he'd let the team down with a poor performance). He was pure class. Forte too for that matter. But Ced? He was trash. I hated the pick. Just a head case.

Along the way, we pioneered innovations ranging from the first zero-switching circulators to the first refrigeration systems for DNA amplification to an award-winning line of culinary products. Over one million temperature control solutions have been sold under our brand name or as private label for large, well-respected manufacturers and distributors. Our dedication to our customers, and their needs, has helped us become a global company that spans six continents and most major cities.
All of our products—Refrigerated Circulators, Heated Circulators, Chillers, Recirculating Coolers, Water Baths, and Custom Equipment—are designed and developed by a highly trained engineering team and manufactured in the U.S.A. to our own rigid standards as well as ISO 9001 quality requirements. After five decades, we're no longer a startup. But the passion for innovation, commitment to quality, and unmatched user-focus continue to drive our enthusiasm for designing and manufacturing superior products.

Piran, Slovenia the city has a very nice atmosphere. Near the harbor is a very nice and cheap fishrestaurant.
Don't mis the city and take your time Good tip? (+1) Piran, Slovenia Piran is one of the most beautiful world cities. It is under UNESCOs protection. Only locals can enter with cars, otherwise it's close for traffic because of the narrow streets covered with cable stone. It is possible to ride a bike or scooter inside the city.

What if we all talked more about money on a daily basis? Is it truly that awful to discuss money or is it another underlining reason people shy away from it. I can clearly say I don't know the answer, but it is a way of life here in the U.S. to avoid awkward money talks especially around people's personal monetary status.
Well I want to provide you with some simple, easy to discuss money talk topics and I hope you can get some value out of it. The topics today will all be random little tidbits to get you to talk more about finances.
Imagine a world where a husband and wife could sit down weekly to talk freely about money and not have fun arguments.
How about if the basics behind money management is implemented into the US school system as mandatory curriculum for all kids before graduating High School. Imagine the impact this could have on future generations. It could possibly bring about the collapse of pay day lenders, and other predatory loan facilities.
Let's dream for a second if 2 times a year families with older kids sat down at the dinner table to devise a plan to increase income and or investing for the entire family.
Think of big picture planning like the Johnson & Johnson family does as televised in the film "The 1 Percent". They are forced to sit down to discuss strategies by the financial advisors, and the heads of the Johnson family trust. Why can't we all have our own meetings on a small scale?
If you feel overwhelmed to discuss things, just find someone to help you smooth out any anxiety or issues you may have around money and that is not trying to sell you something. Believe me they exist and they will teach you first and foremost just like a good mentor.

Recruiting scandals have become commonplace. Money-hungry agents bombard young athletes with phone calls, texts and Facebook messages. Coaches are often the culprits: Jim Tressel and Bruce Pearl are two prominent leaders to be embroiled in controversies over the past few months. The cases -- many of which go undiscovered -- are countless.Sitting in a New York hotel lobby on Aug. 26, Jan and Aaron Thomas reflected on the life of a man who represented the purity of high school athletics. They spoke of Ed Thomas, the former Aplington-Parkersburg (Iowa) High football coach who was tragically murdered in the team's weightlifting barn on Jun. 24, 2009."I never ever envisioned my dad being taken that way," said Aaron. "Where the murder happened, how it happened -- there was definitely a timed sequence that kind of built toward that."It happened a little more than two years ago. One of Thomas' former players, Mark Becker, snuck into the weight room wearing a dark blue jumpsuit and then shot Thomas. Players scattered from the scene. Shockwaves reverberated throughout Parkersburg, Iowa. A town -- and a nation -- mourned en masse."It was very humbling," said Aaron of the support his family received after the shooting, which included hundreds of sympathy cards and the Arthur Ashe Award for Courage at the 2010 ESPYs. "I think it was a great testimony to the type of man he was that the attention would come."Since then, however, most of the nation has reverted its focus to stories that currently dominate the headlines, ones that involve corrupt tattoo parlors and boosters entangled in $920 million Ponzi schemes. It's disheartening. And it's a compelling reason to remember everything that Ed Thomas stood for.On Aug. 16, the Thomas family and author Mark Tabb released The Sacred Acre: The Ed Thomas Story. The book delves into Ed's childhood, his family life and his coaching tactics. But more important, it offers readers a chance to reacquaint themselves with Parkersburg. The residents -- all 2,000 of them -- have displayed uncommon strength since his passing.Take Aplington-Parkersburg football. Immediately after the shooting, the Falcons were in disarray. Their coach of the past 37 years was gone. Players were despondent and depressed. Motivation was scarce and the program searched for answers. Why would someone want to kill Coach Thomas? How could the team that he largely engineered continue in his absence?But the Falcons prevailed. Aaron assumed his father's role as AD. Younger brother Todd became the new offensive coordinator. Al Kerns and Jon Wiegmann, former assistants, served as co-head coaches in 2009 -- the team went 6-4 -- before handing the reins to 26-year-old Alex Pollock, a former linebacker on Thomas' 2002 state championship squad. They re-instilled a sense of pride in the program, restoring games to town reunions of sorts, events that everyone looked forward to on Fridays."That pop is back," said Aaron. "That excitement is back. This year, for the first time, AP football is back to being AP football."The team has resumed winning, going 10-1 last season and taking this year's opener 21-19 against Iowa's Humboldt High. But that's not its greatest success. More significant, the staff continues to instill the virtues -- faith, family, football -- that Ed preached during his legendary tenure."In reality, things aren't that much different," said Todd. "Some of our X's and O's are gonna change a bit, but the core of what our football teams stands for is the exact same."The community has also largely recovered. During Ed's life, he was Parkersburg's spiritual figurehead, an Elder at First Congregational Church in addition to the football team's coach. His teachings bound citizens together. His selfless spirit was contagious. Following his murder, the first in Parkersburg since 1923, that presence suddenly vanished. But others have stepped in to compensate.Aaron moved from Mason City, Iowa, to Parkersburg to offer support. Todd did the same, coming from Cedar Falls. The whole town contributed. When Becker stood trial in March -- he was eventually convicted of first-degree murder -- locals prepared meals for both the Thomas and Becker families throughout the entire three-week session. In the wake of devastation, Parkersburg maintained the magnanimous attitude that Thomas once exemplified."He only saw good in everybody," said Todd. "Hopefully people will do the same."The most striking example of that mentality came in April of this year, after a tornado decimated Mapleton, Iowa, a town 180 miles west of Parkersburg. A group of more than 85 students -- there are only about 250 in the entire school -- immediately volunteered to help clean up the destruction. No local newspaper or television station organized the effort. The kids arranged it themselves, unprompted. It was an act of understanding: Parkersburg was ravaged by a tornado in May 2008."That's something I know my dad would've been extremely proud of," said Aaron. "No job is too small. We're not above picking up boards and nails to help somebody out who's down."That bighearted message will likely continue to spread. Last year, the Thomases and Kansas City Chiefs center Casey Wiegmann -- one of four NFL players to play for Ed -- launched the Ed Thomas Family Foundation, an organization whose mission is to teach young athletes that the game goes deeper than winning and losing, than playbooks and formations. The foundation plans to create a football camp that focuses not just on football, but also on imparting lessons of integrity and respect. It's not geared solely for players. The Thomases also want coaches -- including some who have been previously vilified -- to sit up and take notice."I think a lot of coaches, and it doesn't have to just be football, are there for themselves," said Todd. "We want to talk to them about character building, treating young kids right and trying to be the type of coach that dad was."The significance is simple: Ed was a leader of a dying breed. And the Thomases won't let his memory fade.There are symbols across Parkersburg that still harken thoughts of Ed. The football field is one. Ed tended to it every morning, inspecting it meticulously for brown spots or divots. It had to be perfect. Now named in his honor (Ed Thomas Field), it serves as an unmistakable reminder of his importance. The onset of fall camp is another. Early August was Ed's favorite time, an opportunity to begin to mold better players, students, sons, and citizens. Two years later, the season continues to take a toll on his family."Those are tough days," said Jan. "He could hardly wait for the first day of practice. He was all wound up the night before."Now, a new Falcon team revels in that excitement. The town has finally moved on. People have resumed everyday routines, taken steps toward establishing a new normalcy. But Ed's legacy remains. And in a sports era beset by insatiable superstars and corrupt coaches, laden with twisted morals and backward priorities, it offers a refreshing, and enduring, message: Do what's right. It was a mantra he lived (and coached) by."He wasn't a millionaire, he wasn't a CEO, but he worked extremely hard at what he did and was very passionate," said Aaron. "If you're passionate, you're gonna make a difference. You're gonna have an impact."Two years after his death, Ed Thomas continues to give back. His impact truly knows no bounds.
