Game changer? The "missing" evidence
Cops, prosecutors botched Casey Anthony evidence
Computer search for 'foolproof suffocation' never found
Author: Tony Pipitone
Published On: Nov 20 2012 11:07:10 PM EST Updated On: Nov 21 2012 07:22:27 PM EST
For weeks, Casey Anthony sat at her murder trial with her defense team anxiously waiting for prosecutors to drop a bombshell: computer evidence, the state would argue, showing Anthony researched how to kill with poison and suffocation on the same afternoon her daughter, Caylee, was killed by poison and suffocation.
But the bombshell never exploded.
"We were waiting for the state to bring it up," defense attorney Jose Baez told Local 6. "And when they didn't, we were kind of shocked."
Baez first revealed the evidence in his book, "Presumed Guilty," but blamed Anthonys father, George Anthony, for the computer activity. Baez suggested George Anthony was considering suicide after Caylee accidentally drowned in the family swimming pool.
But a Local 6 investigation has uncovered evidence indicating it was most likely Casey doing the search.
And, in a stunning lapse, prosecutors -- relying on woefully incomplete information from the Orange County Sheriff's Office -- never even saw the potentially damning computer browser evidence, until Local 6 revealed it to them last week.
How damning is it?
Consider what they appear to show happening online the afternoon of Monday, June 16, 2008, the day Caylee died:
At 2:49 p.m., after George Anthony said he had left for work and while Casey Anthonys cellphone is pinging a tower nearest the home, the Anthony family's desktop computer is activated by someone using a password-protected account Casey Anthony used;
At 2:51 p.m., on a browser primarily Casey Anthony used, a Google search for the term "fool-proof suffocation," misspelling the last word as "suffication";
Five seconds later, the user clicks on an article that criticizes pro-suicide websites that include advice on "foolproof" ways to die. "Poison yourself and then follow it up with suffocation" by placing "a plastic bag over the head," the writer quotes others as advising;
At 2:52 p.m., the browser records activity on MySpace, a website Casey Anthony used frequently and George Anthony did not.
"I really believed that (prosecutors) were going to sandbag us with it," said Baez.
After all, poison, suffocation and plastic bags were exactly what the state claimed Casey Anthony used to murder Caylee and dispose of her body; poisoning her with chloroform, suffocating her with duct tape, then placing her body in two plastic bags.
After Local 6 described the findings to him last week, trial prosecutor Jeff Ashton said, "It's just a shame we didn't have it. This certainly would have put the accidental death claim in serious question."
There was an oversight, said sheriffs Capt. Angelo Nieves, confirming that the agency tried and failed to extract information that would have revealed the entire Internet browsing history for that day. This has been a learning experience for investigators as well.
Both Ashton and the lead prosecutor, Linda Drane Burdick, noted that prosecutors asked the Sheriff's Office to produce an Internet history of the computer for June 16, 2008.
But the request came relatively late, less than two months before trial, after prosecutors learned from defense witnesses that Casey Anthony was going to claim she was awakened that morning by her frantic father looking for a missing Caylee.
In an April 5, 2011, email to sheriff's computer examiner Sandra Osborne, Burdick wrote, "I believe, based on your reports, that we can disprove Casey Anthonys claim that she was awakened by her father when Caylee disappeared. They could do that, Burdick wrote, by demonstrating (if possible) what was actually happening (I guess that means user activity and Internet history) on the computer during the time frame."
In response, lead sheriff's Investigator Yuri Melich sent Burdick a spreadsheet that, our investigation found, contained less than 2 percent of the computers Internet activity that day.
Melich and Osborne relied on Internet data from the computers Internet Explorer browser one Casey Anthony apparently stopped using months earlier. Since March, she preferred the computers Mozilla Firefox browser, as investigators already knew.
The spreadsheet sent to Burdick included 17 vague entries from the Internet Explorer browser history on June 16, 2008, and failed to list 1,247 entries recorded on the Mozilla Firefox browser that day -- including the search for foolproof suffocation.
The mistake meant prosecutors went to trial unaware of 98.7 percent of the browser history records created that day.
Even the scant data the Sheriff's Office did manage to find showed computer activity inconsistent with the claim that Casey Anthony was awakened that morning to learn her daughter was missing and then drowned.
Melich's spreadsheet does show activity from Casey Anthony's password-protected account beginning at 7:52 a.m., indicating that she was on MySpace and researching sexy costumes for "shot girls" to wear at her then-boyfriend's nightclub events.
But none of the 1,247 overlooked Firefox browser actions that day -- including the potentially incriminating search that afternoon -- appear in the easily extractable Explorer browser files that Melich relied upon for his timeline.
Investigators knew Casey Anthony preferred the family computer's Mozilla Firefox browser, but they previously had trouble decoding it, sheriffs officials said.
In 2008, in a deleted section of Firefox browser records, they found searches from March 2008 for "how to make chloroform, neck breaking, death and other terms after they requested that Osborn search the hard drive for the word chloroform. That request came after the Sheriffs Office found traces of chloroform in the trunk where, they claimed, Casey Anthony hid her daughter's body.
But when Melich assembled his 114-line spreadsheet in 2011, he transferred data from the Internet Explorer browser that Casey Anthony rarely, if ever, used after March 6, 2008.
Melich and Osborne declined comment, and the then-head of the computer crimes section, Sgt. Kevin Stenger, has retired and could not be reached for comment.
But in a Sept. 6, 2012, email exchange with a Phoenix attorney who obtained the browser histories in August through a public records request, Osborne offered this explanation for the oversight: "I have a very good reason why (the foolproof suffocation search) wasn't brought up during trial. I was never asked to conduct a search for 'suffocation' and the word does not appear in the Internet artifacts we prepared for trial, unfortunately."
In a statement to Local 6 on Monday, the Sheriff's Office stood by Osborne and echoed her defense: The Firefox record which contains the Google search for suffication was neither extracted nor examined. A search for the keyword suffocation was never requested from any OCSO investigator or the prosecutors office at any time during the investigation; therefore, this Internet record was inadvertently not discovered by Detective Osborne. The agency has confidence in her knowledge and expertise in this very complicated field of computer forensics.
When it comes to blame, the prosecution notes it requested the information from the Sheriffs Office; the Sheriffs Office states it was never asked to search for suffocation.
But both agree on this point: No one can say for certain whether the jury would have reached a different verdict if the evidence had not been overlooked.
Baez's theory that George Anthony did the search while contemplating suicide "was as crazy as the nanny story," Humphrey told Local 6, referring to Casey Anthony's original claim that a babysitter had kidnapped Caylee.
She obtained the data in August and turned it over to John Goetz, a retired engineer and computer expert in Connecticut. The pair had become acquainted online while following and discussing the case through the amateur sleuthing web community, Webslueths.
Using free software available on the Internet since 2004, Goetz said it took him less than two hours to extract more than 35,000 records detailing the computer's online activities from 2004 until it was seized in July 2008.
What they found astounded them and left at least one crucial question unanswered: How could prosecutors have not used this at trial?
Searching for that answer, they turned the browser history files over to Local 6.
After authenticating the records and interviewing defense, prosecution and Sheriffs Office sources, it became clear: two citizen-investigators accomplished in less than three hours what an army of Orange County investigators and prosecutors failed to do in three years: uncover in detail what Casey Anthony was doing online the day Caylee died.
Of course, unbeknownst to investigators and prosecutors, it was also uncovered many months earlier by someone else: Jose Baez.
The defense's still-cocked counterpunch: George Anthony did it.
After Baez's computer expert found the June 16 search for foolproof suffocation" (Baez said he cannot reveal exactly when that was), Baez said he suspected the state knew about it, too, and was going to surprise the defense with it at trial.
In his revealing book, "Presumed Guilty," Baez accused investigators of "pulling a fast one" by concealing the vast majority of the June 16 computer history from the defense. Mostly vague references to that day's activity and some images were included in the documents turned over to the defense by the state in the discovery process.
What our reporting confirmed happened never occurred to Baez: that, in this small but crucial area, the investigation was so lacking it failed to discover the search.
But if they had, Baez said, he was ready.
"It turned out to be a huge bombshell that we thought would be the knockout blow in this case," Baez said, anticipating the defense would knock out the state by arguing the search showed George Anthony contemplating suicide, not Casey Anthony researching how to kill.
Baez relies on several assumptions that are refuted by evidence developed and confirmed by Humphrey, Goetz and Local 6.
The defense's flawed timeline
As part of the book's "concrete proof" it was George Anthony and not Casey Anthony doing the foolproof suffocation search that afternoon, Baez notes correctly it was immediately preceded by a login to an AOL Instant Messenger account.
"Right after someone logged in to instant messenger," Baez writes in his book, "the first search was to Google" for foolproof suffocation.
That much is confirmed by the evidence. But then Baez errs in writing, "George had an AOL Instant Messenger account. Casey didn't."
In fact, Baez now concedes, Casey Anthony did have such an account, known as AIM.
And Goetz recovered encrypted data showing it was Casey's Anthonys AIM account screen name casey o marie and not George Anthonys that logged in just before the foolproof suffocation search.
The same AIM account was used to chat on the computer at 7:56 a.m., and was logged in at the outset of other Casey-related Mozilla Firefox browsing session on that day and several others.
That June 16 AIM chat was clearly between Casey Anthony (casey o marie) and a friend known on AIM as WitePlayboi.
"So what r u up 2," WitePlayboi asked at 8:01 that fateful morning.
"Not a whole lot. Checking up on all the MySpace/Facebook hoopla," casey o marie replies 30 seconds later.
Baez said he has corrected the error in subsequent editions of the book.
Baez claims the foolproof suffocation search occurred at 1:51 p.m., not 2:51 p.m., and that the times on the browser history extracted from the sheriffs copy of the hard drive failed to take into account the beginning of daylight saving time in March 2008.
A 2:51 p.m. search time makes it difficult for Baez to argue George Anthony was responsible because George Anthony claimed he left the house around 2:30 for a work shift that began at 3 p.m.
In addition, a detailed comparison of the browser times to independent evidence -- some direct, some circumstantial -- corroborates the contention that the search occurred at 2:51 p.m. and not 1:51 p.m., as Baez claims.
When Osborn first seized the computer and started it on July, 18, 2008 at 12:13 p.m., she testified, the computer's time was "right on the money."
On June 16, at 11:27 a.m., the browser logged a photo accessed through Facebook, then a visit to the Photobucket photo sharing site. Eighteen seconds after the photo was accessed in Facebook it was uploaded to Caseys Photobucket account, according to Photobucket records subpoenaed by the Sheriff's Office in 2008.
If the browser time were incorrect as Baez claims, Photobuckets records would have placed that activity at 10:27 a.m. (Melich's spreadsheet prepared for the prosecution inaccurately states the photo showing the inside of a lounge where Caseys boyfriend held weekly nightclub events -- was uploaded at 9:27 a.m., failing to note Photobucket's record was based on Mountain Time.)
Cellphone call and text records also align with the times of computer activity logged by the browser, but only if one accepts the later 2:51 p.m. time for the foolproof suffocation search.
Most strikingly, the browsing session that included that search logs its last activity, involving MySpace, at 2:52 and 55 seconds. Cellphone records show Casey Anthony answered a call from former boyfriend Jesse Grund that was logged at 2:52:53.
They spoke for nearly 12 minutes, the call ending at the 3:04:06 -- the exact second the cell records show a call from George Anthony to Casey Anthony's cell, indicating she disconnected with Grund to take a 26-second call from her father.
In his book, Baez said the call at 3:04 p.m. is "exactly when (George) would have arrived at work." Records also show George used his cell to call his house landline at 3:02 p.m., indicating he was not home at the time.
It was during that 3:04 p.m. call, Baez writes, that Casey Anthony claims her father told her, "I took care of everything," meaning he disposed of the body and warned her not to tell her mother, Cindy Anthony, about Caylee's death.
Thirty minutes later, Casey Anthony called her then-boyfriend, Tony Lazzaro.
Baez suspected the state did not want to introduce at trial cell and computer records because they refuted something George Anthony had insisted on all along: that he is certain Casey Anthony and Caylee left the house at 12:50 that afternoon.
As Local 6 first revealed in 2009, Casey's cellphone indicated it was at or near the house that entire day, until she headed toward Lazzaro's apartment at 4:11 p.m.
And the newly uncovered browser histories further indicate Casey Anthony was at the house past 12:50 that afternoon. Her password-protected computer account activates the browser at 1:39 p.m., revealing activity associated with her AIM account and MySpace and Facebook. The last browser activity during that session is at 1:42 p.m.; two minutes later, Casey Anthony calls her friend, Amy Huizenga, and they talk until 2:21 p.m.
Twenty-eight minutes later, browser histories show, Casey Anthony's account on the computer is back online just before the search for foolproof suffocation.
While the state now says it would have argued the search showed her interest in killing with poison, suffocation and plastic bags, the defense would have countered the computer user was researching suicide and, as Baez wrote, George Anthony "was the only one out there trying to kill himself."
The timeline could support one of any number of other possibilities, including one Baez did not raise, but could have used to his advantage: that Caylee did, in fact, die in an accidental drowning and George and Casey Anthony agreed they would conceal the death. But, after George Anthony left to dispose of the body and go to work, Casey Anthony went online to consider suicide that afternoon.
Still, why she would search for "foolproof suffocation" and not, say, "how to commit suicide," is another unanswerable question and one of many.
Baez concedes the records are open to interpretation, and notes browser data alone cannot conclusively prove who was using a computer at any given time. And, he stressed, several of his experts independently confirmed the search in question occurred an hour earlier than the records provided to Local 6.
While he argued in his book someone "signed on to" George's AIM account that afternoon, the records show it was Casey Anthonys account. Informed of that, Baez now notes the login may have been automatic whenever someone started a browser. Even so, browser records indicate Casey's password-protected account is the only one that generated a login to her AIM account, as it did just before the foolproof suffocation search.
So, 16 months after a verdict that shocked the nation, the case continues to leave heads shaking.
How could a massive investigation fail to uncover crucial evidence created during the most important hours of its most important day?
And why didn't prosecutors request the records sooner, making a more forceful, specific, wide-ranging demand for every byte of data on the computer browser, then followed up more vociferously, utilizing the vast array of experts and resources available to the sheriff's and state attorney's offices?
The incoming state attorney, Ashton, said he "can't think of a policy or procedure I could put in place to make sure this wouldn't happen again."
He repeatedly cited Burdick's asking the Sheriff's Office for June 16 browser data, saying, "It appears Linda's question covered the material."

I wasn't involved in the Caylee Anthony case or too many other cases. I posted mainly on the JonBenét case, but I did read enough about it to know Casey Anthony was guilty of murdering her little girl. Oh my goodness it upsets me all over again reading about it. Casey was a very hard type of young woman, I thought, and very capable of committing this murder.
What a sad world we live in when it comes to mothers murdering their children!

Just my opinion.

Casey getting away with the murder of her daughter will go down in the annals of injustice as a contender for top place.
Casey is a truly despicable, wretched excuse for a human being and while she probably will live the rest of her life as a pariah, I hope that someday she will find herself in a jail cell for some other offense just as OJ Simpson has.
Here is a working link for the story on the missing evidence.

Cynic, as I understand it this "news" in the Casey Anthony case was discovered by 2Websluethers, azlawyer and jwg. aAZ s was very active during the trial answering questions from posters almost daily. At one point Tricia had her on her radio show. It was she azlawyer who requested all the info on Casey's computer search. After receiving them she asked jwg to go over them also. The reporter Joe Pepitone realized that azlawyer had requested the transcripts and contacted her when his own request was unsuccessful because he went to the wrong source.
Anyway that is how I read the story of how all this came to light. Not bad is it?

I can't even think about Casey Anthony without my blood pressure going up! What a travesty of justice, and now we have even MORE proof that she got away with murder!

Technically, the first person to find the evidence was a computer expert for Casey's defense team who came across the Firefox browser searches before the trial began, but as Baez indicated in his wretched book, he was going to do his weasel best to use the browser history to help portray a suicidal George Anthony.

"Keep The Dodgers In Brooklyn"
He sent me this picture.
I didn't see this live. I was with my wife's family eating dinner. I did see the first couple of innings. I found out you can actually see these games on ESPN3.com
So who is that?
It's Neil Diamond, singing "Sweet Caroline" I'm sure you know they play this song at every Red Sox game.
From NESN:
Singer/songwriter Neil Diamond made a surprise appearance during the Red Sox' season opener against the Yankees on Sunday night, belting out his hit "Sweet Caroline" as the Fenway faithful sang along.
Wearing a dark sports jacket with the message "Keep the Dodgers in Brooklyn" written on the back, the 69-year-old Brooklyn native connected with the fans who regularly use his song as a late-inning rallying cry.
Is Diamond okay? Was he living under a rock for over the last 50 some years? I did find the video of this performance.
I wouldn't be surprised if YouTube takes down this video. Enjoy it...

Neil is an old-time Brooklyn Dodger fan. He's not trying to prove anything, excepts that he is a Brooklyn kid who still pains for the old Dodgers. This is very common from old Brooklynites. I once dated a gal whose father was from Brooklyn. He had despised the Dodgers for leaving. It took moving out to California and nearly 30 years to find his Blue love again.
As some may know, Neil Diamond actually owes his career to the Dodgers leaving town. He got so depressed his folks got him guitar lessons to cheer him up- and the rest is history.

The famous Alepotripa and Vlichada caves are located in Pirgos Diros. They were explored by the speleologists Ioannis and Anna Petrochilos. The Alepotrypa cavern was discovered in 1958. Archaeological research begun in 1970 under the direction of archaeologist Georgios Papathanassopoulos. In the course of the late Neolithic period (4000 - 3000 BC), the cave was extensively used as shelter, dwelling, workshop, storage place for goods, cemetery and a place of worship.
The richness and quality of the unearthed findings witness the existence of a populous society in Alepotripa, which developed over time into an important centre that engaged largely in trade, maritime travel, farming and stockbreeding. Strangely enough, human skeletons were found on the surface, meaning that entombment had not taken place.
This led archaeologist G. Papathanassopoulos to the conclusion that these Neolithic people died suddenly during a strong earthquake, which in turn generated huge rockslides from the ceiling, thus blocking the cave's entrance. The passageways of Alepotrypa, decorated with stalagmites and stalactites, measure 500 m in length. The cave covers an area of 6,500 m2. The central cave ends in a very beautiful lake attaining a maximum depth of 6 m. The cave is not open to the public, yet.
The cave of Vlychada covers an area of 16,700 m2 and since 1949 about 2,800 water passages have been explored. A 2.5-km-long winding passageway is the main route for sightseeing. During a 40-min boat trip, the visitor comes across an intricate network of passages and galleries, decorated with gleaming stalagmites and stalactites, whose reflection in the water accentuates their natural beauty. The guided tour into the cavern of Vlychada takes place by boat and on foot - part of it is on land.

nnie Besant's life as a devout, a secularist and, towards the end, President of the Theosophical Society cannot be merely seen as a form of active opposition to the most widely accepted way of thinking. Thus, on trying to establish an evaluation as unbiased as possible, our selection depends not only on the purpose of re-reading the male controlled canon, but mainly on the recognition of Besant's achievements whenever dealing with the great issues of Victorian society in which she was aware of its intrinsic gender questions. In her writings, she does take a feminist approach to her topics, on considering gender as culturally constructed ideas and expectations of female and male roles. This statement invites us to see both the links between Victorian women essayists and our new era of feminism. To a certain extent, her autobiographical representations express not only the Victorian compromise, but also a constant desire to do her own evaluation in an attempt to find her own identity; however, in her first writings she only meant to bring the social double standards to an end. Although at the beginning of her marriage she had tried to help her husband's parishioners, she quickly understood that poor people needed better living and fair working conditions rather than handouts. In spite of her awareness of culturally shaped attributes, she sometimes referred in her theosophical reflections, that polarity is founded on biological premises. Besant naturally does not mention the Victorian aim to conciliate antinomic values and simply wants to explain the function of evolution by the union of the "pairs of opposites" (Varela, 66; see also 241.). Nevertheless, when focusing female and male relationship, as she did when delivering her first lecture after joining the National Secular Society, she always criticised women's subjection:
Remove authority, which is tyranny, and people will readily "agree to differ." There will possible be a little more care before marriage about the opinions of the lady wooed than there is now, when the man fancies that he can mould the docile girl into what shape he pleases, and the future happiness of both is marred if the woman happens to be made of bright steel, instead of plastic clay. ("The Political Status of Women" (1874))
As John Stuart Mill stated in "The Subjection of Women," feminine education served as one of the strongest instruments to maintain masculine supremacy at that time. The male vision led to passiveness, but, paradoxically, in Annie's situation it was marriage, and mainly her reaction against this oppressive situation, that made her able to free herself. For her marriage was not the end but the beginning of her story, a situation that is evident in Marriage, As It Was, As It Is, And As It Should Be: A Plea For Reform (1878), which originally appeared serially in the National Reformer (See Saville, Section II, no 11.). Though the patriarchal conception of the Angel in the House remained for a long time, with the image of a dutiful wife submissive to her husband, in the last decades of the century there was a slight opening of the public sphere to women, expressed mostly in the access to higher education. Whenever she fought for education, she always looked forward to the new century both as a new world for women and for colonised people.
Interpreting her own life or explaining how she re-evaluated her own self, Annie Besant's activity was remarkable as an orator. She had experienced it for the first time, in 1873, from her husband's pulpit in the empty, lonely church, as she liked "to try how it felt" (Autobiographical Sketches 72). However, when analysing the cultural discourse of some Victorian sages, Thaïs Morgan points out the authoritative dimension of the sage and inexplicably forgets Annie Besant. However, Mrs. Radha Burnier, the seventh President of the Theosophical Society, said that, when Annie Besant arrived for the first time in India in 1893, she had a great power of inspiration which had certainly been silenced by education. In spite of having a great activity in the public sphere, she was confined at all times to a marginal situation. In this condition of censorship, the presence of several masculine figures such as Edward Pusey, Charles Voysey, Thomas Scott, Charles Bradlaugh, and Edward Aveling has a special meaning. Though we have no revelation of sexual involvement between Annie Besant and her friends, according to the judgement of many contemporaries, these relations suggested transgressive attitudes, which deserved social exclusion.
Actually, her autobiographies, as Broughton has argued, which have to be complemented by her manifestos, namely the Social and Political Pamphlets, have to be examined both as very sensitive and accurate descriptions of a locus for many social, economic and cultural threads. Her continuous confrontation with everything that had affected her mind, feelings and her own experience, a feminine one which had been repressed since her childhood, stimulates the appraisal of contemporary problems and brings her analysis close to the minority ones.

The elusive character of women's autobiography can thus be traced to this three-way transposition: gender takes the structure of genre; genre adopts the lineaments of history; and history embodies the condition of gender. Hence in a feminist reading of autobiography gender, genre and history must dance together.

In Wednesday's third installment of "Sit Down with the Gaffer", I got Frank's thoughts on the team's offseason attacking additions and competition at that end of the field.
In today's fourth installment, I speak to Frank about his thoughts on squad rotation and get his reaction to the Fire's regular season schedule.
The Fire's most successful stretch of the 2012 MLS campaign came when the team won seven of eight matches during in August and September.
That streak of games not only put the team within inches of its first playoff berth since 2009 but by the end of September, saw the Men in Red visit Sporting KC for a chance to take top spot in the Eastern Conference
A 2-0 loss in the match played on September 28 might have taken some wind out of the team's sails, with the side taking just four points from its final four regular season matches and entering the playoffs lacking the same spark and creativity they'd utilized in late summer.
One reason raised for the less than stellar play at the end of the season was a perceived lack of squad rotation by head coach Frank Klopas. Though the manager's main mantra this offseason has been about depth and competition in the team, those hoping for lots of moving parts during 2013 may be disappointed.
"For me continuity is very important to have within a team," Klopas explained to Chicago-Fire.com "I think you can rotate some guys but it's difficult sometimes to choose which players you do that with. You look at successful teams like Barcelona and Manchester United in the past and there are certain players that never move. Those teams do make some changes but certain guys just don't get rotated.
"Injuries and suspensions also factor into what you do you but yes, you need to have quality and depth in certain spots for those times you're having to play three games in a week and you have to travel, you have to look into that. There are certain spots that you can't change or rotate.
"The continuity and the ability to play with certain guys over and over again is important. To know their tendencies, their weaknesses and their strengths is very valuable in a game and something that doesn't come overnight."
In 2012, the Fire had five instances where the team played three games in less than eight days. With Wednesday's release of the 2013 MLS regular season schedule, the Fire have less midweek matches (just three) and only two instances where the team stacks up three games in a span of eight days.
This will change a bit once U.S. Open Cup dates are released and depending on how far the team goes in that tournament, could require more squad rotation.
Klopas concluded, "When you look at very good teams and their ability to not make a lot of changes in certain spots, when you can identify your core of players and build around that, it doesn't take a lot of time to adapt."
As for the schedule itself, the Fire head coach didn't put much stock into the difficult prospect of opening up at the defending MLS Cup champions.
"There are no easy games. It's a great opportunity for us to open up against the defending champions, we look forward to it. There's never going to be any easy games and I think over the course of the season things tend to even out.
"It's important for us to have good preparation in preseason and it helps to have the continuity with so many guys returning from the last few years.
"I think now our sacrifices and willingness to work harder everyday are very important because the expectations are getting higher. Mine are higher, our goals are going to be higher and so we have to work that much harder to achieve them."
In Friday's final installment, I talk to Frank about his thoughts heading into the MLS Combine and next week's SuperDraft.

I've recently blogged about how hackers redirect Googlebot from legitimate sites to malware sites. In the update, I mentioned a real site that had been hacked and lost both PageRank and top positions in Google search results.
The owner of that site sent me a very insightful email and gave me permission to publish it here: Continue »»

Before the song, she is talking to Sam in front of her locker, explaining that she had told Shane about them. Sam automatically assumes that now they can be together at last. However, feeling awful about what she did, Mercedes tells Sam that even though she loves him, they can't be together, and she then starts to sing at her locker.
During the song, she moves into the auditorium wearing a red dress and singing only to Sam, and then towards the end of the song, she sings in front of the Glee Club. After the performance, Sam leaves the choir room with tears in his eyes.
If I should stay,
I would only be in your way.
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you every step of the way.
And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
You, my darling you. Hmm.
Bittersweet memories
that is all I'm taking with me.
So, goodbye. Please, don't cry.
We both know I'm not what you, you need.
And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of.
And I wish to you, joy and happiness.
But above all this, I wish you love.
And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I, I will always love you.
Darling, I love you
Oh I'll always, I'll always love you
- This is the second time Mercedes has covered a Whitney Houston song. The first was I Look to You in Grilled Cheesus.
- Alex Newell, who plays Unique, sang this on The Glee Project.
- Jessica Sanchez, who plays Frida, sang this twice on American Idol, during the Whitney Houston/Stevie Wonder week and again at the finale.
- The episode coincidentally aired just three days after the death of Whitney Houston. To pay tribute to the artist, the episode in which this song appeared in, ended with the words "Whitney Houston 1963-2012 - We Will Always Love You" on the screen.

I've been ripping MKTE props for MKHideout lately, and good lord, ripping texts like "Fatality" was a pain in the ass alone, but having to rip a whole fucking spritesheet of for example Quan Chi, might take months, since u cannot make the background pink, and you cannot press P and see something frame by frame =/
if u guys wanna know,Umk3 Subbys 2nd Fatality is:Down,forward,forward,forward,High punch
i have proven this fatality and he uppercuts them and then makes and ice spike and they fall on it.

A while back, a friend from college sent out moving announcements with a picture of her son in a moving box and I knew that I would be
I had them printed in a square size from Mpix and tucked them into solid colored envelopes from Hobby Lobby. Our return address stamp is from Stamp it Out.
I always like to get these in the mail so that I have a new address when it comes time to mail a birthday or Christmas card. Have you done anything creative with moving announcements/change of address cards?

Texas Gov. Rick Perry said on Saturday that if elected, he would be open to sending U.S. troops to Mexico to help fight the country's violent drug war.
"The way that we were able to stop the drug cartels in Colombia was with a coordinated effort," he said at the home of New Hampshire Republican gubernatorial candidate Ovide Lamontagne. "It may take our military" working alongside the Mexican government to defeat the country's cartels, he said.
After Perry's incomprehensible answer to a foreign policy question in the last GOP debate, the pressure has been on to prove he is capable of serving as commander in chief. These comments, which are far from the political mainstream, do not help.
Perry has repeatedly called for the deployment of more National Guard troops to block the flow of illegal immigrants and drugs into the United States, but he has opposed the construction of a border fence — drawing fire from many in his party.
As The Huffington Post pointed out, this is not the first time Perry has suggested deploying U.S. forces in Mexico. "I think we have to use every aspect of law enforcement that we have including the military. I think we have the same situation as we had in Colombia. Obviously, Mexico has to approve any type of assistance that we can give them," Perry told MSNBC last year. "But the fact of the matter is these are people who are highly motivated with money, they are vicious, they are armed to the teeth, and I want to see them defeated. And any means that we can to run these people off our border and to save Americans' lives we need to be engaged in."
A Perry spokesman said the governor is open to all ways of helping Mexico fight the cartels, adding that military assistance is just one option.
UPDATE: We neglected to mention that the U.S. military is already assisting Mexico's military with training and other assistance, though Perry appears to be considering a much deeper engagement.

Search Dosporn
As I'm sure you are already well aware , there is an infinite amount of porn sites out there on the web today. Even if you spent all day every day browsing every porn site that exists, you would never run out-moded (kids, please do not attempt this at home ). This is because there are new sites that are created every single day. That being said, so many of the free tube sites out there are basically the same. They have small differences here and there, different branding and design some are much better than others, but, at the end of the day most are just sites that host hundreds of thousands of videos, clips, and/or pictures. It is rare that you loosely across a porn site that does something different a site that really thinks outside of the box a bit. A site that provides a unique experience in the user. Because of this, so many tube and porn aggregator sites gravitate to blend into one another. Even I, a porn expert sometimes confuse some of these sites when I think of them. Did I get that video on Porn Hub or Youporn? Maybe it was Redtube? I don't even know they're all, more or less, the same ! What's more, many of them even feature the unvaried videos, even further blurring the lines between them. This, however is not a problem with Pornmd.com. From the moment you land on the home page it is easy to see that this will not be your typical tube or aggregator site. Well that's because it isn't. It's not quite a tube site or an aggregator site. Porn aggregators often resemble porn tubes—pages filled with thumbnails of videos to choose from—the central difference being that aggregators don't actually host the videos on their site they link to the tube sites on which they actually exist. A porn tube hosts content directly. And they are often user-supported, so much of the material that they host is uploaded from the site 's users themselves, as opposed to sourced and loaded by webmasters or something. Porn MD, on the other pass is something entirely different. I suppose you could call it a porn tube aggregator site in that you can directly tap into all of the biggest tube sites out there, all on PornMD. Or maybe calling it a porn tube search engine would make more sense. Essentially, they aggregate the top tube sites and, more importantly, allow you to select which tubes you want to browse all conveniently from PornMD's site. This is completely unlike anything I've ever seen in the world of online adult content. Maybe that's why they call themselves PornMD—like a surgeon, they suture all the great tube sites together and, therefore cure you of your need to jizz. The result? A sort of Frankenstein's monster of porn. The good people at PornMD are doing God 's work. But, dissimilar Frankenstein's monster PornMD doesn't look haphazardly put together or freakish. The site is immaculately designed, clean minimalist, sleek and easy to use. I'll be honest it is a little bit disorienting at first. As I mentioned before tube and aggregator sites have sort of set a precedent for how they tend to appear — immediate access to thousands of video thumbnails, black background often red text maybe a list of categories off to the side. PornMD casts all this aside and gives us something completely different. Beautiful and Unique Site Design ; The Google of Porn First of all, you have a bright white background with tons of negative space. Not a single thumbnail to be found on the home page. It seems like Porn MD took a lot of influence from Google, actually. Bright colors against a white backdrop, with nothing but their logo and a search bar in the center. Job 's talk about the search bar by a moment. It's pretty straightforward and simple. Which is precisely what I love so much about it. You can type in whatever keywords you see fit then choose between videos ( default ) or photos. You can also select whether you want to search only straight content only gay, or only transsexual. It would be nice I'm sure for those pornoholics out there with more wide-open tastes, if you had the option to select two or all three if you wanted, but I'm not losing any sleep in the fact that you can't. PornMD also has their own version of Google's famous "I'm feeling lucky " option. It appears at the far-left corner of the search bar in the form of a dice to have PornMD generate a random search term for you. I tested my luck and rolled the dice and PornMD typed " Party " into the bar as me and threw me into tons of videos of parties turned orgies. Nice looks like I took a gamble and it paid off. Another innovative element of the search feature is that you can choose between either letting PornMD make you every video that meets your parameters or by videos on a particular tube. The way that you choose this, too, is really cool. Hover your mouse over the PornMD logo and every tube site 's logo that they aggregate from will magically splay into the where the solo PornMD logo used to be. The rest of the site will move down ever so slightly to make room for this new floating menu. Now you can choose between a sizeable list of some of the biggest names in the porn tube industry : Pornhub, Redtube, Youporn, Keez Movies, Tube 8, Spankwire, Extreme Tube, Xtube, PornXS, and, of course Porn MD if you want to continue searching all of them. Select a single tube if you want by clicking it, that logo now sits where the PornMD one sat before right above the search bar centered on the page. Fun and In Features I can't believe we're this far into the review and I haven't even conducted a search yet. But there's one more feature of the nursing page that I want to chat before we venture on in. So, I'm sure you're familiar with how most tube sites categorize their thumbnails on their home pages, right? Most popular trending, maybe a list of featured porn stars? Trickle PornMD has that as these categories as well. Right under the search bar you'll find them in the form of hyperlinks. This site does you one better though and features a " Live Search," which brings you to a page where, in real time the searches other users are conducting scroll upward as they turn ( kind of like the text in the Star Wars intro (but waaay dirtier); any of which you can click on. This is a great feature to include for the pornophile suffering from a bad case of fapper's block. You can even filter the live search by country and sexual orientation. Pretty cool stuff. Now Let 's Look at the Site Itself Okay, so let 's finally get down to business and conduct our search. I went with " Party " since PornMD knew what I was in the mood for better than I did. At this the site is starting to look more like your typical tube or aggregator site. Thumbnails that are centered, with filtering options to the left. One thing worth noting is that Porn MD defaults to an infinite scroll model for search results, as opposed to your standard page-by-page site design. But (and this is a huge but), they give you the option to turn infinite scroll off ! In case you prefer the classic page-by-page browsing method. This is fucking brilliant. Every website should loosely with this many interface options. Again, though PornMD impresses. You can choose how the thumbnail results appear (either gallery mode or list mode ), which is a feature I not in any knew I wanted, but now love. Also, the filtering options are really fucking awesome. Filter for sexual orientation length (0-50 minutes), video quality (all videos, or HD only ), Virtual Reality (all videos, or VR only [so cool]), date added ( only find videos added in the past 24 hours if you want ), and source. Two Tiny Qualms. There isn't much to critique when it comes to video playback or anything like that, since clicking on the video brings you seamlessly to the source site (Redtube, Pornhub, etc.). I only really have two complaints when it comes to PornMD: 1.) there are a couple of ads that appear to the right after you conduct your search, and 2.) I would like to see a way to toggle between homemade and professional videos in the filtering menu; really just more control over narrowing the search down by category. I'm going to forego my usual rant about ads because PornMD's ads are relatively few and aren't invasive. But, also, it appears as if you can make them disappear by switching your search results from gallery to list mode and leaving infinite scroll on! So, there's a little life hack for you. I fucking love Porn MD. They have diagnosed problems with similar sites that I didn't even know I had and have cured them. Honestly I don't know if I'll ever use another tube or aggregator site again after spending a little values with PornMD's easy to use beautifully designed, innovative, and fun site. As a matter of fact I think I'm gonna go spend a little more time there. I highly recommend you do the same !
Any serious pornoholic has definitely at least heard of the tube site known as xHamster.com. Most of you, I'm willing to wager, have fapped to it on more than one occasion. For some of you, it might even be your go-to porn tube site. And, if that is the case , you are certainly not alone. In fact , there are 10 million others who fap to xHamster time enough to be registered users. After Xvideos and Porn Hub , it is the third most popular pornographic site on the internet today. Headquartered in Limassol, Cyprus, xHamster was founded in 2007 by Alex Hawkings. The minds behind the site wanted to do something different from what they were seeing most porno sites doing at the time. Coming off of the peak popularity of social media sites like Facebook and Twitter , xHamsters founders set out to create a site that was equal parts porn tube and xxx social media site. A spokesperson for the site said of xHamster's intentions that the site was meant for people who wanted to chat , exchange erotic pics and share amateur videos ... to find mutual friends online and maybe discover partners interested in intimate relationships." I think it is fair to say that x Hamster has done a bang-up job of providing the platform that they set out to take , as it has become a cornucopia of amateur and homemade user-uploaded content. As far as the " discover partners interested in intimate relationships" part is concerned , though , I cannot speak to. I have never felt the need to resort to a porn site to find my " intimate relationships," but I am very curious to know if anyone's ever had any luck with that aspect of the site. The People's Porn Network Along with so much user-uploaded content , though , controversy is bound to come sooner or later. With the number of people out there in the world who are sick fucks—not sick fucks who spend all day fapping in their mothers' basements the way you are a sick fuck, I'm talking real , clinically ill sick fucks—a site like xHamster that allows its users to upload basically whatever they want was bound to become inundated with illegal and fucked up content. xHamster has not struggled in keeping up with the shifting social tides and establishing a sense of moral duty , though. In April of 2016, for example , North Carolina enacted laws that said its counties and cities were allowed to openly discriminate against members of the LGBT community. In response to this, xHamster blocked their site from any users with an IP address based in North Carolina. You might also recall hearing about the People V. Turner sexual assault case. To help combat the growing prominence of rape culture in America, xHamster banned all videos involving rape , including those which featured the fucking of unconscious partners. Their social and political involvements don't stop there, though. One of my personal favorite political statements that they made came in response to the 2016 Democratic National Committee email leak , when they offered Debbie Wasserman Shultz $50,000 to star in a porno opposite a Bernie Sanders lookalike. You know , since she already fucked him out of the election. Ah, if that isn't fucking gold, I don't know what is. The Site Itself Obviously , xHamster has made quite a name for themselves in their relatively short period of time as a xxx social media/porn tube. But does the site itself hold up to all the hype? Well , let 's take a look. From the moment you arrive at xHamster's home page , it is hard not to be impressed by how clean and easy to navigate the web design is. With videos broken into two simple and distinct categories: hot porn videos and newest porn videos. You can also easily filter by best instead of newest and by to the fullest (which is a great feature , in the homemade videos, for some reason , have to be significantly shorter in length ). To your left , you can easily filter search results by category , channel , or porn star by simply clicking on it. You can also combine tags together with one click—a great feature that, somehow , is glaringly missing from a lot of tube sites that I've browsed. Their professional studio content appears right alongside their teeming archive of homemade content , unless you specify otherwise. You can also conveniently filter the videos so that you only see straight , gay, or shemale videos. If you don't discriminate at all in your hedonism, however , you can always activate all three. The most annoying thing that they added was a hardcoded watermark on top of the videos. It sometimes really messes with your fap experience , when you're about to see a guy jizz on a chick's face and then...BOOM! That damn watermark "this video has been uploaded to xHamster" appears on the chick's face like a motherfucking cockblocker! Seriously , whoever thought it was a good idea deserves a kick in the balls! As far as xHamster's social media components are concerned , you have all the usual community-oriented features that you'd be used to on other similar sites (such as Porn Hub )—you can comment on/rate videos, add videos to your favorites, upload videos/pictures, and message users directly. One thing that really sets xHamster apart from the others, though , is that, when you click on their tab labeled "dating," you are not brought to some sketchy third-party scam " get laid tonight" might If you're looking for a massive (and I mean massive ) archive of porn videos, Video-One.com might be the place for you. I'm talking nearly 54,000 pages (yes, I said "pages") of videos, each page containing around 360 videos. In the math was not my strong suit but I think that adds up to a grand total of nearly 20 million videos! Considering the fact that Video-one is adding new content every day even the loneliest, horniest fappers among us would in no run out of material on this tube site. From the moment you hit to video-one.com ( make sure you don't forget the hyphen; Video-One is a video chatting client ), you are tout in the thick of all that the site has to offer. At the top of the page feel 50 or so suggested categories to choose from (" brother " " extra small " "caught stealing ," and " amateur compilation" to name a few ). Lots of Raw Hardcore Content These tags probably give you a pretty good idea of what to expect from Video One. Another way to get an idea of the sort of content they offer is to take a look at what sites they link to: xHamster, Beeg, TXXX, and DTVideo are a few. What this should tick you is that a majority of the content will be homemade, or at least amateur-inspired. You might label a lot of it Gonzo. I tend to use the term "raw." We're talking productions akin to Casting Couch Fake Taxi and Asian Street Meat. Granted, Video-One does have the occasional HD studio video thrown in here and there, the majority of their content if not full-on homemade, is from one of these studios that specializes in raw content. Be Careful What You Click On Video-One also seems to cater to the demographic of pornophiles who fancy the more taboo type stuff —daddy/daughter, brother/sister incest roleplay. Well at least I hope it's all roleplay. Some of the videos in these sections are from easily recognized, reputable studios, but a good portion of them look to be very homemade and are tagged with things like " Real Sister." I have no way of verifying whether or not these videos are actually illegal or not. I sure as hell ain't clicking on that shit. I wish that you sick incestuous fucks would get the fuck away from the legal web. Stick to the dark web for nasty shit like that. Furthermore, I really think tube sites like Video-One should draw a hard line in the sand against illegal content like this. Even if these aren't true incest videos, why even entertain that they might be? Anything tagged with something like " Real Sister" should be immediately removed from your site. This kind of shit, unfortunately, spoils what could have been a great tube site for me. It should not be on the viewer's discretion to view illegal or potentially abusive content. That becomes your responsibility the moment you decide to make a porn site. How the fuck is this a thing that I can't even skim through a tube site without worrying about whether or not doing so will get me oneself on some FBI list that I have no business being on? Come on, Video-One, get your fucking shit together. Having said that, be careful what you click on if you determine to visit this site. If you're okay with sifting through potentially illegal content there is a lot of legit, ingenuous material here to enjoy. And, again, a fucking massive amount of it. Equitable to illustrate I was on the site for 10 minutes before refreshing the homepage. In that 10 minutes, 15 new videos had been uploaded. That's crazy. You'll never excursion out of videos to choose from on Video-One. A Labyrinth of Pornography The site itself is designed pretty and recommended tags on the Either As far as ads are concerned there are some, but most are thoughtfully kept to the bottom of pages. Which, given the number of videos that appear on each page , you'd have to do a hell of a lot of scrolling to ever lay them. I do appreciate that aspect. However , at the you do leak to them, there are shit load. No ads before videos, though. You will run into the occasional pop-up, new tab ad when you click on a video, but at least it's not every fucking time you click on something like it is on a lot of other sites. I would obviously prefer none , but if I have to search for them, then I guess these ads are somewhat excusable. Besides the majority of the on-page ads are for other tube sites (which is very convenient if you want to get the fuck away from the incest bullshit), and the new tab pop-ups were often pages that were unable to load in private mode. I'm not sure exactly what this means, but if I can't see the ad, I'm happy. A Brief Call to Action Before You Coax Back to Fappin' To be honest I am really turned off by the potentially illegal content to be found on Video-One. It's a shame too, because Video-One has so much potential to be a great porn site with a shit ton of content to choose from. Even if they removed all of their potentially illicit videos, they would still have a massive archive to explore. All of us porn addicts need to happen together and just stomp this kind of shit out of our community. Flag shit that looks sketchy. If you can. Video-One, unfortunately, doesn't offer that feature. Not up and take on the fucking responsibilities that yield with having a porn site or don't have one. It's as simple as that. All hail the almighty Porn Hub ! The king of porn sites! Founded in 2007 by Matt Keezer, who sold it to Fabian Thylmann in 2010, because the fucker probably cared more about the cold than the website itself! (Would you refuse of the Manwin branch which is for known as 'Mindgeek'. Other giants in the network include sites like YouPorn and Redtube. Although Porn Hub is currently not the most popular porn site in the world it does hold more pornographic content than any other website missing in the romantic comedy movie 'Don John' of 2013? It's about a fap addict that can't stop masturbating on porn sites, even though he has a very active sex life. I wonder why the fuck they asked that closet faggot Joseph Gordon-Levitt role your cumshot with the stars in the video. It can be so annoying that the dude and the video is already done! I adopt if a video got you off or not. By registering an account, which is 100 free by the way you encounter , you can also can remove up your hairy ass with Bubba in jail ! From innocent looking teens showing their naked bodies to spazzed out crack whores being choked, spit on and having every hole violated by a hockey team , this site has it all. Do you like pornstars like Mia Khalifa, Chyna and Not Daniels? No problem , click on the pornstars' menu , and you'll how she's able to expensive off on Porn Hub ( often misspelled as 'pron hub ", "pirnhub", "prnhub", "poenhub", "hubporn", "phub" or "potnhub"), then you cant get off anywhere! In case the ads annoy you, you want to download or watch for a friend 's birthday! Imagine the look on his face , when he opens your present. His eyes will be shattered with tears, and you can be sure that this is one gift he won't be selling on eBay again afterward! You can even upload your homemade sex tape and get paid up to $5,000 by using their amateur payment program and become the next amateur porn star. Don't you want to be the next big thing in pornography?

The Fast and Furious scandal, in which the Justice Department knowingly gave Mexican criminal gangs thousands of guns, just keeps escalating. The latest development centers around whether or not Attorney General Eric Holder lied to Congress about having knowledge of the controversial gun trafficking operation. Recently released documents say Holder was briefed about the operation long before he told the Judiciary Committee he was first aware of what was going on. (Holder now claims he misunderstood the question was being asked.)
What's more, CBS News investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson — who's been covering the scandal from the beginning — says in an interview on the Laura Ingraham Show today that the White House and Justice Department have taken to screaming at her for reporting on the story. You can listen to the full interview below, but here are the key excerpts from Attkisson:
In between the yelling that I received from Justice Department yesterday, the spokeswoman–who would not put anything in writing, I was asking for her explanation so there would be clarity and no confusion later over what had been said, she wouldn't put anything in writing–so we talked on the phone and she said things such as the question Holder answered was different than the one he asked. But he phrased it, he said very explicitly, 'I probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks.'
Ingraham: So they were literally screaming at you?
Attkisson: Yes. Well the DOJ woman was just yelling at me. The guy from the White House on Friday night literally screamed at me and cussed at me. [Laura: Who was the person? Who was the person at Justice screaming?] Eric Schultz. Oh, the person screaming was [DOJ spokeswoman] Tracy Schmaler, she was yelling not screaming. And the person who screamed at me was Eric Schultz at the White House."
Finally, Attkisson notes that the White House is claiming that a thorough investigation of the scandal is unwarranted:
The White House and Justice Department] will tell you that I'm the only reporter–as they told me–that is not reasonable. They say the Washington Post is reasonable, the LA Times is reasonable, the New York Times is reasonable, I'm the only one who thinks this is a story, and they think I'm unfair and biased by pursuing it.

This is why I don't use Facebook, except to play Scrabble with my parents. (And I'm planning to buy them iPods or iPads so we can upgrade to Words With Friends, at which point I plan to abandon Facebook again.) It's also why I think Facebook is overvalued.
My five main social groups on Facebook: programmers, actors, family, friends from high school, and friends from the San Francisco rave scene. In high school, my main interest was classical languages. When I was a raver, my main interest was going to raves. These two groups of people have ideas of who I am which diverge wildly. You see similar divergence between the sensibilities of actors and programmers, and the way I communicate with my family differs a great deal from how I communicate with any other group.
It's simply impossible to come up with status updates that make sense to every group. For instance, my parents recently encountered rattlesnakes on their property, and I proposed a system for preventing this which they rejected for, as far as I can tell, being too logical and too likely to succeed. If this was a topic of discussion on my Facebook page, my programmer friends would focus on the system, my actor friends would focus on the experience of encountering rattlesnakes - as well as the experience of attempting to talk sense into crazy people - while my high school friends would tell me what was going on with their own parents, and my raver friends would go off on a crazy tangent and start making jokes about peyote.
These are all pretty great ways to deal with this kind of news, but not at the same time. A Facebook discussion like this would travel down several different paths simultaneously and I'd be stuck in the middle trying to participate with all subgroups in whichever way I normally interact with each. This has happened to me several times (although not with this specific example). It's like being pulled in several directions at once, and the result is I just feel Facebook is completely useless for communicating with people.
It's a systemic problem. The second-best solution would be to create five Facebook pages, one for each group of friends, but the best solution is much simpler:
- Facebook is a piece of crap
- don't use it.
The reason I think this means Facebook is overvalued: eventually, once everybody's used to being able to communicate this way, people will want to be able to separate their groups and communicate with them in a more human manner. New sites will emerge which match these more sophisticated idioms, and what will Facebook do? They'll probably have to bolt new, sophisticated ideas onto a framework they built around cruder assumptions. That kind of effort doesn't usually succeed. The basic question with Facebook's valuation is, how long do they have, and how much money can they make during that time? My hunch is that mobile will exacerbate the issues this presentation reveals, ending Facebook's reign sooner rather than later, but it's just a guess.
Update: I guess this says pathetic things about my social life, but fuck it.

With two weeks to the filing deadline for candidates in the May Shelby County primary elections and two months to the deadline for those in the August state and federal primaries and county nonpartisan elections, the fields have solidified enough that some political players are weighing their prospects for a late entry before the filing deadlines.
(Daily News File)
The latest name to surface is Memphis City Council member Lee Harris, who is kicking off an exploratory committee to look at running in the August Democratic primary for Tennessee Senate District 29, the seat currently held by Democrat Ophelia Ford and held by a member of the Ford family since 1975.
Harris won election to his council seat in 2011. Next week's fundraiser to kick off the exploratory look is $40 a person. Part of the exploration will involve how much Harris is likely to raise through his campaign committee, called "Lee Harris Ready for Change."
Through Wednesday, Feb. 5, 157 qualifying petitions had been issued by the Shelby County Election Commission for candidates on the Aug. 7 ballot, including independents running in the partisan county general elections. Of the 157 petitions, some pulled by a single candidate for multiple races, 38 had been filed with the Election Commission. The filing deadline is April 3 at noon.
Of the three Tennessee Senate seats covering Shelby County on the August primary ballot, only Republican incumbent Brian Kelsey in District 31 has no opposition from either party so far.
Seven of the 15 Tennessee House incumbents from Shelby County are running unopposed so far.
In the nonpartisan judicial races, the power of incumbency tends to count for more when there are open seats among the several divisions within a particular court.
In the three parts of Shelby County Chancery Court, incumbent Chancellors Walter Evans and Kenny Armstrong had no opposition through Wednesday, and each had filed his re-election petition. But in Part 2 of Chancery Court, where incumbent Arnold Goldin is not seeking re-election because of his appointment to the state appeals court that takes effect in September, there are nine potential candidates so far, but none of them had filed as of Wednesday. Six of the nine have pulled multiple petitions for other judicial races on the same ballot.
Seven of the 10 incumbent Shelby County Criminal Court judges are running unopposed thus far. But in Circuit Court, only two of the six incumbent judges who have petitions out or who have filed are without opposition at this point: Division 6 Judge Jerry Stokes and Division 9 Judge Robert Childers.
A total of 93 petitions had been pulled through Wednesday evening for the May 6 county primary races, and 28 of the candidates had filed their petitions. The filing deadline for the county primaries is Feb. 20 at noon.
At the two-week mark, incumbent Republican District Attorney General Amy Weirich and Republican Shelby County Commissioner Steve Basar still had no Democratic or Republican challengers. Only one of the five other commission incumbents seeking re-election is without primary opposition so far. That is Republican Commissioner Heidi Shafer.
Seven of the other 10 incumbents holding countywide office have no primary opposition at this point: Democratic Assessor of Property Cheyenne Johnson, Republican Trustee David Lenoir, Republican Juvenile Court Clerk Joy Touliatos, Republican Shelby County Clerk Wayne Mashburn, Republican Shelby County Register Tom Leatherwood, Republican Probate Court Clerk Paul Boyd and Republican Sheriff Bill Oldham.
All seven have potential opposition in the other party's primary.
In the Sheriff's race, both Oldham and his likely Democratic challenger, retired sheriff's deputy Bennie Cobb, have filed their qualifying petitions. So far, Cobb has no opposition in the primary.
Cobb ran four years ago in the Democratic primary for sheriff won by Randy Wade. Oldham emerged from a crowded Republican primary field for the open position as incumbent Sheriff Mark Luttrell ran for Shelby County mayor.
The difference in the sheriff's race four years later shows the power of incumbency.
Both Cobb and Oldham could still draw primary opposition. Such is the fluid nature even with two weeks to the filing deadline. Potential candidates weigh their options carefully, looking for what seems to be the right opportunity. And candidates considering the same race often try to persuade each other to consider another race or to run next time.
Those discussions continue even after the filing deadline. Every candidate who files a qualifying petition by the first deadline then has another week to withdraw from the ballot if they choose.

Saturday afternoon he won the men's 1500m at the Atlantic Sun Conference Championships in Jacksonville, Fla., at the University of North Florida.
His performance led the Lipscomb men to an all-time best fourth place team finish in the A-Sun meet, with a Lipscomb record 57 team points, more than double last year's record number 25 points.
"The 1500m was a scary race," Lipscomb coach Bill Taylor said. "Ryan got trapped inside for the first two laps, and because the pace was moderate he just couldn't get out. Fortunately Isaiah Greer moved up on Ryan's outside and opened up a hole for him to get out. From there he immediately moved into the top three and with 600 meters left Ryan surged to the lead.
"He built a lead of maybe five meters, but just couldn't break the field. Coming down the homestretch the lead pack was closing hard and it honestly looked like Ryan might end up third or worse, but he found that extra something and held everyone off to win by less than a second."
Chastain officially won the race by one-half of a second. Like so many athletes competing at the end of a long season he was dealing with an injury problem.
"We knew it was going to be tough for Ryan," Taylor said. "Despite his amazing season, he had a mild hamstring pull recently and hadn't done any quality work and very little running for more than two weeks. He really gutted things out. That was an exciting race."
Two other men earned All A-Sun Conference honors for Lipscomb with top three finishes.
Burton Elrod finished third in the men's decathlon with 6,067 points. He set all-time personal bests in four events (100m, long jump, 400m and 1500m) and was near personal bests in the other six events. His score actually was under the previous A-Sun meet record for the decathlon.
Xavier Conley finished third in the men's long jump to earn All A-Sun honors. He also finished sixth in the men's 100m and anchored the 4x400m relay to a fourth place finish with a sub-50 split. The fourth place finish by the men's 4x400m relay team secured fourth place for the Lipscomb men's team and moved Lipscomb past cross town rival Belmont for the first time in A-Sun history.
Several Lipscomb athletes just missed earning All-Conference honors. Most notably, Ashton Fisher finished fourth by less than one-quarter of a second in the men's 3000m steeplechase. Other fourth place finishers were Adam Austin in the high jump, Alex Jerkins in the shot put and Austin Ray in the javelin.
"First, the toughness awards go to Amanda Twigg and Alex Jerkins who competed hard despite having severely sprained ankles," Taylor said. "They both missed a lot of training time the past few weeks and gave all they had though it was obvious they were hurting.
"Also Meredith McFarlin, who took a tumble over a barrier in the third lap of the women's steeplechase while leading, earns a toughness award as well. She crashed hard, hit the curbing, lost a shoe, then got up and ran the rest of the steeplechase with only one spike on, and caught a girl down the homestretch to finish 8th and secure a point for the team. And finally, to Isaiah Greer who competed in the 1500m, the 800m, then wanted to do the 5000m as well, and was the second finisher for our team in that race."
There were highs and lows for the teams, which is true of most track and field events.
"We had a day of ups and downs." Taylor said. "Although you always hope it will go as well as it possibly can, that's normal.
"We raised the bar another level as a program though, which is great. Some of our athletes really stepped up big. Every season we get better. It was a great year, and this sets us up for an even bigger year next year and beyond."

The San Francisco 49ers currently are reaping the benefits of having the foresight to draft Colin Kaepernick.
Relive every game this season online and on-demand with enhanced viewing features, including the "All-22" coaches film. Get NFL Game Rewind.
It might come as a surprise to learn the 49ers weren't the only team to draft Kaepernick. The Chicago Cubs chose Kaepernick in the 43rd round of the 2009 Major League Baseball draft.
Kaepernick didn't play baseball at the University of Nevada, but reports of a 90-mph fastball during his high school days made him worth a flier. Kaepernick declined the Cubs' interest and remained in school.
"I ended up watching him play a couple times in football and really liked his athleticism," Sam Hughes, a member of the Cubs' amateur scouting department, told FoxSports.com. "But he had a real long arm stroke that's not very Dan Marino-esque. When he was a sophomore in college, I didn't know how his game would translate in the NFL.
"Our NFL sources at the time thought he was going to be a later-round or CFL guy."
A monster senior season at Nevada led to the 49ers grabbing Kaepernick in the second round of the 2011 NFL Draft. The rest was history.
After Hughes saw Kaepernick wearing a Milwaukee Brewers hat during a postgame interview Sunday, he texted the quarterback.
"Let's not forget you were drafted by the Cubs," Hughes joked. "I want to see you rocking the Cubbie Blue. ... And by the way, pretty good game."
Kaepernick's reply? "LOL. Thank you."
Just another near miss by the lovable losers from Wrigleyville.

A cranberry-rhubarb relish
This is great on pork chops! Made with rhubarb from our CSA.
Beef bone broth
I got 40# of bones for $20 back in December, and those bones were from pasture-raised beef. I used the broth to make terrific blender tomato sauce (I'll post the recipe soon) and minestrone soup.
Beet Kvass
Made with the beets we received in our CSA yesterday, Beet Kvass is a standard in every Ukrainian home. It is a blood tonic and cleanser; full of minerals and probiotics.
Also known as tea kvass, you can read all about kombucha here. This is a staple in our home and I credit this beverage (and God of course!) with my speedy recovery from childbirth!
Ruby lemonade
Stewed rhubarb and strawberries from CSA, a small amount of organic sugar and stevia to taste. This was cooked down to a syrup and then was blended with some lemon juice, water, and a bit of kombucha to add a kick. My kids love this! Very refreshing for such a hot day.
That's all! But do try to guess what else I've got above!!
Coming up: I'm making a goal to post more often. I hesitate to say what's coming up, but I'm hoping to start posting my weekly menu plan each Sunday night (from a new blog-inspiration, here!) Michele's blog ROCKS, but please do come back and visit here once in a while once you get hooked on hers!!
