NASCAR Phoenix: NASCAR Should Have Suspended Jeff Gordon For Retaliating Against Clint Bowyer
AVONDALE, Ariz. – So much for consistency in NASCAR's rules. If it had any, Jeff Gordon would be sitting at home during the season finale Sunday instead of racing at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
Gordon should have been suspended for retaliating against Clint Bowyer and igniting a brawl between their two race teams.
What Gordon did to Bowyer Sunday at Phoenix International Raceway wasn't as bad as Kyle Busch intentionally wrecking Ron Hornaday Jr. in the truck race at Texas last year, but it ranked close enough to merit a suspension and not just the $100,000 fine and 25-point penalty NASCAR levied late Monday afternoon.
After Bowyer ran into Gordon, cutting his tire and causing him to wreck, Gordon waited on Bowyer to come back around the track and then turned him into the wall, destroying Bowyer's car and his championship hopes.
The only difference from the Busch-Hornaday incident is that Busch wrecked Hornaday under caution (when a driver wouldn't expect to be wrecked) and pushed Hornaday's truck several hundred feet before letting up and then hooking him and turning him into the wall.
Busch was suspended for the next day's Nationwide Series race and the following day's Sprint Cup race at Texas. Gordon wasn't, even though the incident led to a huge brawl in the garage and marred the next-to-last race of the season.
Fans can say what Gordon did was just racing. It wasn't. It was wrong. It was dangerous. And NASCAR is lucky it didn't take out two championship contenders instead of one since Chase leader Brad Keselowski was right behind Gordon and Bowyer when they crashed.
Gordon crossed the line between racing and recklessness. Here's why:
• This was premeditated. Gordon stayed on the track and waited on Bowyer with the clear intention of retaliating. Afterward, he admitted he retaliated because he was "fed up" with Bowyer.
• It took out two drivers who were capable of winning the race in Bowyer and Joey Logano.
• It had an impact on the championship race. Bowyer entered the race 36 points behind Jimmie Johnson and 29 behind Keselowski. When Johnson crashed earlier in the race, it put Bowyer back in the championship hunt and gave him at least a mathematical chance going into the season finale.
• Johnson, Gordon's teammate, still is in the championship race. Gordon's actions could be seen as taking out a championship contender so that Bowyer wouldn't be in the mix to race his teammate in the final race. Gordon crew chief Alan Gustafson, when asked about affecting the championship in favor of a teammate, said Gordon still had a shot, too. That argument doesn't hold water because Gordon was 65 points behind Keselowski and would have had no chance to catch him in the final race.
NASCAR can't have its drivers, especially teammates, affecting the championship race with retaliation. It's lucky that Keselowski didn't get caught up in it, or else it certainly would have looked like a teammate helping another teammate win a championship.
This will not go down as one of Gordon's finest moments. He certainly felt like he had to stand his ground, but maybe next week in practice could have been the time to get even with Bowyer. Or even next March at Phoenix.
It's tempting to give Gordon the benefit of the doubt. He has does so many great things for the sport. He's a four-time Cup champion. He does great things with his children's foundation. His Drive To End Hunger sponsorship helps feed millions of families. He's one of the best interviews in the sport and one of its greatest ambassadors.
He also has not had a resume full of run-ins with competitors and questionable actions that Busch had when he wrecked Hornaday.
But NASCAR should have taken a stand on this one. Gordon's actions were flat-out wrong, plain and simple. And NASCAR can only hope the Bowyer-Gordon feud won't ruin the championship race this Sunday at Homestead.
NASCAR needed to park Gordon for the final race and let the two drivers and their teams use the offseason to get over it and heal any potential wounds.
Don't believe those who claim that this falls in the category of NASCAR's "boys have at it" policy. That was supposed mean that when two drivers are bumping and banging and racing hard, that it's OK to retaliate against a driver who has run into you or roughed you up. It means that a little payback during hard, aggressive racing is OK.
But Bowyer didn't intentionally run into Gordon. Maybe he was a bit too aggressive and driving over his head.
The retaliation? That wasn't Gordon driving over his head. That was Gordon losing his mind.
NASCAR should have parked him.

Even the mainstream media was abuzz earlier this summer when word got out that a major super-hero would be coming out as gay. Our spirits flagged a little bit when it turned out it was Green Lantern—not the Hal Jordan character audiences saw depicted by Ryan Reynolds but Alan Scot, an alternate-universe GL with a different costume and origin.
Still, it was a nice touch.
Until this Wednesday, that is, when Earth 2 #3 came out and readers learned the train Alan was on exploded, killing Sam. That's gotta be a record—from hello to R.I.P. in one issue. Even soap operas drag it out a little longer than that.
Bilerico Project Jason Tsang was just one of many readers who felt betrayed:
Sam's death is clearly designed by writer James Robinson to give Alan Scott a torturous and angst-filled origin. Transforming Alan's proposal ring into his new power ring, I imagine is intended to prove to us that Sam meant something, that his death is weighty and serious.
However, this neatly tied green plot bow over Sam's burning corpse only cheapens Sam's death. Sam was never created to live, rather he was created to die. While this trope of deceased loved one inspiring heroism is a longstanding theme in superhero comics, these deaths are only inspirational and effective if the deceased is someone we care about. We are hardly introduced to Sam before he is killed, which negates the emotional impact of his sacrifice.
On top of that, Alan Scott is disturbingly unphased by Sam's death. In fact, when the green flame informs him that the love of his life and almost fiance has died, he exhibits no remorse. There is no pause to mourn his lover's passing, rather within moments of being introduced to this talking green bonfire, he gleefully accepts the power offered to him. He doesn't even look for Sam's body to verify what the green fireball has reported. If we are meant to empathize with the tragic origins of Alan Scott, why does he feel so little for his loss?
Scott's lack of emotion is indicative of the fact that the writer's interest in Sam's death is not on the deceased but rather how this death affects or drives the protagonist.
Back in the 1990s, "Women in Fefrigerators" became a comics trope for any time a hero's wife, girlfriend or Gal Friday was raped, murdered, mutilated or otherwise debased for the benefit of giving the protagonist a darker edge. (It actually dates back to an actual plot point in an old issue of Green Lantern.)
Is Sam going to be the first in a line of Gays in Refrigerators? Kyle Jinadu, the civilian husband of the X-Men's Northstar, might want to start sleeping with one eye open.

People are still sentimental about Uncle Ben and Gwen Stacy and in some versions they don't last longer than 10 pages/minutes.
Shouldn't that headline have been "Spoiler Alert"?
Speaking as a long time comic book reader, I wasn't bothered by this. Alan Scott received his powers after being the sole survivor of a train wreck. In the Golden Age story he had no back story, no personality, no connections, he was just the lucky guy who happened to survive. In this one, at least we can see him as a person: successful, industrious, clever, gay and in love. That he doesn't react in a horrible, sob-ridden hunt for Sam's corpse isn't unrealistic. He just went through an accident, had his body burned, was missing and eye, was in pain, and was being spoken to by a green flame. I think shock had something to do with it. Also, in the end when the green flame tells him to pick a symbol with which to channel his new powers through, Alan picks the ring he offered Sam as his symbol. The green flame even approves saying it will help him on his mission to remember his lost love and seek vengeance for him. I happen to have liked the issue and see it as progress that a character that has been around for 60+ years has been made over into a form that helps everyone be represented in the world of comics.
Max the Communist
They killed him off before hot superhero sex and that is unforgivable!
@hamoboy: "it's because the comics writers are talentless hacks who could NEVER muster the empathy to put themselves in the place of a LGBT person, let alone a woman or person of colour."
LOL. Your outmoded self-righteousness does not make you sound smart, child–it only shows that you haven't read comic books beyond Marvel and DC. Perhaps you can educate yourself before insulting an entire genre of art with your ignorance. Go away. The LGBT movement does not need people like you. You're better suited fighting for "the other side" with that mentality.
Ugh. Hicks.
@Chronomaxx: "In the Golden Age story he had no back story, no personality, no connections, he was just the lucky guy who happened to survive. In this one, at least we can see him as a person: successful, industrious, clever, gay and in love."
You expect the vast majority of the loquacious, Madonna-laced QUEENS in this website to know that? I hate to break it to you love, but a great number of people who visit Queerty only know that Green Lantern is not a type of condom because his writers decided to give him a back story. It's the same way they now know that Frank Ocean is a singer and not a perfume brand–he came out as bi and suddenly he's their favorite singer. It's quite sad.
The death of a love or family member is a common comic book trope:
Spiderman had his Uncle Ben
Batman's parents
The list is extensive
I don't have a problem with what they did because its to be expected
The only real problem I had is that the emotions felt rushed. He didn't even grieve, but that may come later and is likely a problem with a team-based book rather than one focused just on green lantern.
MJ (different from the other one)
@UsualPlayer: I agree with this. I wasn't even shocked to find out Sam was dead. It was all a part of the plan to create the hero in Alan Scott; to give him a reason why he fights. that was their plan, and they executed it. now onto the villain and introducing the next hero.
@MJ (different from the other one): What would be interesting, but they are never going to go there- would be that Grundy is actually Sam. While I like the comic book, they are in the play by the comic book trope numbers mode and nothing so far is unexpected. That's the real complaint- that they aren't doing anything different with the characters other than making them gay or black or whatever. Thats' not that interesting to me.
Honestly who cares? The Green Lantern comic series sucks.
Basically this:
@Anon: Actually no since comic books have their own tropes.
So comparing the two mediums indicates you really don't know much about comic books.
Its the trope I mentioned. Which has nothing to do with being gay.
The trope is the hero becomes the hero due to some tragedy in his or her life, normally a loved one getting killed.
For Batman, it was his parents. For Daredevil, it was his father. For Elektra, it was her father. I mentioned Uncle Ben for Spiderman,b ut in the comic book its also Gwen Stacie, his first girlfriend who is killed that shapes Spiderman and the series. For Martian Manhunter, its his entire race that's killed off. The list is so extensive in comic books- death = reason to become villian or hero- that it would be impossible to list them all. Right now in the Justice League the main villian is motivated because of the death of his children and wife.
The trope has nothing to do with being gay or straight in comic books. Its just the trope of death being the reason for one becoming a hero or villian.
What would be pandering is if they didn't use the common trope. That somehow green lantern saved his love and became the green latnern anyway. That would be unusual
Again, Anon is talking about TV. NOT comic books. As a comic book geek I hate when non-comic book geeks try to speak of something that they clearly no knowing about. This is not only unique to gays I have shown how it is actually the story that defines quite a few main stream character's "origins" for becoming what they became. The death of a loved one is not about being gay. Its about a trope that , if you want to complain about it, is all to expected- the death of the loved one leading to the hero's journey.
@YaomingYaoming: Yes, if this website was directed to 13 year olds maybe?
Gay Bacon
In the original series of Queer As Folk Ted dies in like the second or third episode…..Fast and disappointing, but you usually brush those off with a different fff *cough cough* series arc.
Alan Scott's origin. Everybody dies he's given a mandate to save the world.
After all the work Roberstson has done with gay visibility in comics, he should be given the latitude to work. All of this gnashing of teeth when it's been all but telegraphed and mentioned on this very site that it's going to happen is overwrought and premature.
Seriously, this isn't a Marvel book where the gay hero is touted by the EiC one week and stabbed to death a week later.
Bluntly: if you are taking the position that the comic book trope of killing a loved one is somehow anti-gay, then you are a complete idiot because the facts prove otherwise.
I just got through putting down Before Watchman with Ozymandias. Its the origins story of the character. The reason why they have him pick up a mask? Because the one he cares for dies of a drug overdose.
So you can try to peronalize this all you want, it just shows how ignorant you are rather than some insight into the genre.
@hamoboy: Look, its clear you are others know very little about comic books.
What happens to Jean Grey is that she dies so that the rest of the X-men can learn a very important lesson about power and absolute power. Scott Summers you idiot was the point of all the several times she dies. He is her love interest. he is also a hero who leads the X-men, the group book she dies in.
If you want to start using absurd phrases like "all" to back up your claim it just makes you and the rest of the idiots seems like you are just grasping at straws to justify putting down the comic book for being anti-gay rather than actually being able to substantiate that assertion with any amount of serious evidence that gays are being treated differently than straights.
What you and others are actually advocating is that you want to be treated differently
THe list of girls friends, hubands and significant others of all types who die are legion in comic books. the only one who don't seem to know this is you and the other people trying to turn this into an anti-gay screed
There are a plenty of reasons to attack comic books as anti gay both now and in the past. This isn't one of them.
@hamoboy: There is not a snowballs chance in hell you ae a comic book geek given your unawareness of something as basic as knowing that Jean Grey's death redefine not just the X-men, but her love interest's, Scot SUmmers, life.
By the way- even Wonder Woman has as one of her motivated factors- that the gods just killed her mother.
Whether it will stick, who knows. The point is death is used all the time as the motivation for the hero in comics.
I've been able to name two that I read just this week after picking up my monthly stack so its funny that you and others persist in requiring that gays be treated uniquely
If you want to complain, you should complain about the trope in general rather than how gays should be singled out as not marked for death like other orgin story significant others
Its like the way now comics have gays in perfect relationships where nothing ever happens and they stay together forever
This is a reaction to the fear that gay people will be angry if they aren't shown as real people- some in relationship, some not, some cheating, some sleeping around, etc. The point is to show variety, but that won't happen if every story is turned into "we must treat the gay characters with kids gloves"
Green lantern story is my favorite. I even loved when they developed the emotional spectrum. I understand that killing Alan's gay lover within the second issue but it still drives the similar purpose of him surviving a train crash.

Another for the list:
Comic Books. For guys who don't have the balls to admit they watch soaps.
Bury Your Gays
Repeating a link that has nothing to do with the topic or context does not prove your point
It just makes you seem like someone with an agenda besides the truth.
Or a troll
The comic was never going to be Green Lantern and his significant other. The boyfriend, like everything else in the comic is a device to move the plot forward. His next boyfriend will move the plot forward again. I think Sam was actually just the easiest way for the writer to introduce the concept that Alan Scott was, in fact, gay. No actual gays were shoved into refrigerators in the making of this comic.
@hamoboy: I realize you and others are trolling and this site really doesn't matter, but let's try this one more time.
The problem here is basic logic, or your lack of it.
I point out that a common comic book trope is to kill a significant other- gay or straight – off to start the hero or villains journey.
You keep responding that there is a tv trope of killing gays off.
For your argument to work here with comic books logically you would have to show that the killing off of the significant other here is about the character being gay. That's the threshold as far as logical arguments for you even making your point.
You can't make that argument. Why? Because both straight and gays are killed off to start the heroes journey.
So yes, you are asking under the logical circumstances for special treatment since gays would have to singled out. This is just logic. You can babble as much as you want, and I don't expect logic to affect you at any point (I mean why should it now since the argument has been obvious from the start since I offered the argument about the comic book trope), but it really is pass silly to keep arguing "I am right because I can link to examples of a different trope singling out gay characters.). The irony of course is that if one were to follow your argument- then whereas in TV ending the singling out for gays would lead to life. Here, to keep true to how heteros are treated in the comic book, the following the trope of killing off a significant other would have to be followed to not treat gays as special.
That's why logically I said that you are asking for special treatment.
So type as many "LOL" and post as many distractions as you would like. The problem here is basic logic of what would happen in a story to match what you seem to be advocating. The gay significant other logically would have to survive, which in terms of a comic book trope would be singling out the gay significant other for special treatment (because we aren't supposed to die because of society's absue against us). Which may make you feel better, but it is singling us out in this case for special treatment and that treatment is not about ending discrimination.
@Anthony: Yes you are mostly getting this from the perspective of the writing. The real time to complain is if another boyfriend does not show up in the series at some later point.
In comic books, this type of kill the significant other is pretty normal, but whats not normal would be a neutered character that has no sigifnicant other eventualy after the death.
This is where a comic book fan should have a problem. Not with this death, which was to be expected. So its a wait and see.
It lasted about as long as most gay relationships.
Why would LGBT who don't read comics be annoyed about this? Or even concerned about it? Just because it's about a gay fictional character they've never heard of before? Or was even aware existed?
And those that read comics would know that this sort of thing happens all the time, it just happened to be a gay character this time. Big deal.
If they were gonna kill him off as part of Scott's origin then it would have been ridiculous to keep people strung along for more than a few issues. I mean, you're reading a Green Lantern book. You want to see a Green Lantern, not a couple (gay or straight) going on vacation and having dinner for five issues.
I'm just curious why the quoted section seems to think he should feel REMORSE.

BALMEDIE Scotland (Reuters) - Just about everyone, including people who don't care about golf, knows that American mogul Donald Trump, sometimes known as "The Donald" as if there were no other, owns a course in Scotland.
But how many people know what it is like to play it?
Before visiting with a golfing buddy, I knew of the controversies - environmentalists had opposed it when Trump bought the land in 2006, some landowners refused to sell. More recently, Trump scrapped plans to invest more at his site near Aberdeen, because he opposed plans for a wind farm nearby.
But I was curious to see for myself, and anything that has caused such a ruckus in one of the world's quiet corners is probably worth seeing. I wasn't sure what to expect. Would it be opulent, tacky and over the top with delusions of grandeur? Or was it well run and enjoyable? The answer was all of the above.
Let's start with the entrance.
The gateway is a little sign along the A90. The driveway feels like an entrance to an American golf resort - long, single lane, empty fields, quiet, clear that you are headed somewhere secluded and nice. The first thing you see is MacLeod House, a "historic" mansion dating back to the last decade, where higher rollers than myself can stay. I'm sure it's nice, but at more than 300 pounds ($510) per night, I passed.
The drive continues down a steep hill where the clubhouse, practice area, course and sea all come into view. Impressive, but unlike the opulent hotel, the clubhouse is small, wooden and simple. A young porter collected our golf bags. Did he expect a tip? Were we suddenly in American territory? I played it safe and tipped him. He looked at me knowingly - another American.
The clubhouse's interior is tasteful, but there is more Trump merchandise on sale than can be believed. Trump hats, Trump shirts, Trump T-shirts, Trump ball markers, Trump, Trump, Trump. My favorite was the bottle of Trump whisky that had somehow been aged for 26 years - for a course a few years old.
A picture in the bar showed Trump and Michael Jackson smiling together. After we laughed, the bartender offered to take our photo in front of it. We said no, perhaps mistakenly.
A young, formally dressed Scottish girl at the register gave us our goody bag, which was complementary with the 190-pound greens fee. Inside was a gleaming Trump International Golf Links tag, and a course guide, which deserves a mention all to itself.
Most such guides which are spiral-bound, on ordinary paper. This felt like a book. Its cover was black, with a large gold Trump logo embossed on the center. The logo is a shield with what looks like patches from a soldier's uniform on it and two squabbling eagles below. Above that is a roaring lion holding a flag. Written in Latin around the lion are the words "Numquam Concedere", which means "Never Give Up" - a summation of Trump's philosophy if ever there was one.
And there he is, on page one, smiling and with his arms spread wide. Beneath him is a letter detailing his passion for golf and Scotland, and calling his course the greatest in the world. Eat your heart out, St. Andrews and Augusta National.
Yet counterbalancing touches abound. The driving range, where practice balls were free, was on grass, not mats. The pitch-and-putt area was perfectly manicured. A four-sided clock ensured you knew how close tee-time was. There are seven tee boxes at every hole, making the course playable for almost all levels. Attention to detail and service were second to none.
We headed out to the first tee and our experience from then on was a mix of highs and lows. Were we loving this place or hating it? Could this be the world's greatest golf course, or was it a monument to power and money? How could we not be having a good time playing golf in one of the most beautiful parts of Scotland, in rare sunshine? Great shot, pity it's on a course with a checkered history. Awful shot - blame it on Trump.
After nine pleasant and unhurried holes, the course took us back to the clubhouse, full of families enjoying a Father's Day lunch together. Could we get a beer and bring it out to the course? No problem, sir. Could we order food and have it brought to us on the course? Absolutely. At the 10th hole I was brought a bacon sandwich with at least 10 perfectly cooked pieces in it, wrapped in paper with countless Trump logos littered across it.
For the most part, I was loving it. This was a true links course, with not a single weak hole - each was more fun than the last, posing new challenges we had never had to contemplate before in years of golf. All against a backdrop of bitterly divided locals and a man whose improbable head of hair has been compared to a red fox.
We finally arrived at the 18th tee and our caddy asked if we'd like to see the view from the professional tee box, which turned a 500-yard shot into a 651-yard behemoth. From the tee we could see the sweeping entirety of what we had just done, as well as the majesty of what had been built. Trump likes to give his interviews from this spot. Our caddy gave us a chance to drive from the box. My friend sliced hopelessly into the water. I barely reached the front edge of the fairway.
After missing a three-foot putt to cap off my round of 91, my head was all over the place. I'd had a blast on a course made by a man whose style I dislike. But I suppose the confusion was part of the experience. Playing Trump is development vs. conservation; urban vs. rural; USA vs. Europe; rich vs. poor; private equity vs. community activism; ancient vs. modern.
My advice would be this: Go. Play some golf, not just at Trump but at the dozens of beautiful (and substantially cheaper) courses in the area. Talk to as many people as possible, and find out for yourself.

The Terry Campus of Delaware Technical Community hosted the formation of the Delaware State Assembly of the Association of Surgical Technologists on Sept. 7.
The Terry Campus of Delaware Technical Community College hosted the formation of the Delaware State Assembly of the Association of Surgical Technologists on Sept. 7.
Local certified surgical technologists, members of the Association of Surgical Technologists, and current students studying the profession were all in attendance. The formation of a State Assembly allows surgical technologists the opportunity to reach out to operating rooms throughout Delaware to encourage not only membership, but to help with the education process and improve the processes and knowledge of surgical technologists in Delaware.
"I feel it is essential to increase the number of trained, certified Surgical Technologists in our state as well as encourage membership for our professional organization," said Tina Gary, Certified Surgical Technologist and program coordinator for Surgical Technology at Delaware Technical Community College. "As an educator, it is important to inspire new graduates and current students to be active in the profession as well as the community."
Ms. Gary was named president of the Delaware State Assembly of the Association of Surgical Technologists.
The Delaware State Assembly will be integral in fundraising events, which will offer community outreach and student scholarships. Delaware Tech offers the only associate degree program in Delaware for surgical technologists. Students are eligible to obtain the certified surgical technologist credential after successful completion of the program.

Groundbreaking advancements in the realm of space engineering may soon see the moon sown with the first gardens to grow on the lunar surface. As part of the Google Lunar X Prize, Paragon Space Development Corporation has recently teamed with Odyssey Moon to develop a pressurized mini greenhouse to deploy on the surface of the moon, grow a plant from seed, and hopefully see it flower and seed itself. It's a complicated endeavor, but it marks a critical stage of development for extending life beyond the confines of our planet.
In order to successfully grow a plant on the moon, Paragon has developed a very specialized greenhouse that can safely contain a plant and provide it with all elements it needs to survive. The greenhouse will need to protect the plant from the sun's intense rays while providing it with enough water, balanced soil, and carbon dioxide while removing its waste oxygen. They are basically creating a space suit for the plant.
For this trial, Paragon has chosen a species within Brassica (the mustard family), due to their quick growth and the abundance of knowledge about the plant. A typical Brassica needs 14 days of light in order to grow, flower and then set seed. A lunar day is 14 Earth days long, so if the landing is timed perfectly, it will allow just enough time for the plant to grow to maturity and possibly re-seed. That is if everything goes as planned on the Lunar Oasis Lander, which Paragon and Odyssey Moon are developing.
Growing a plant in a controlled environment on the moon will be a groundbreaking development, because this is a crucial step to colonizing life outside of the Earth's atmosphere. Whatever you think about expanding beyond our own limits, the technology to be able to sustain life in such harsh conditions is pretty incredible – it would be amazing to see the accelerated footage of a plant growing in space.
The plant growth payload is just one aspect of the Lunar Oasis Lander being developed for the Google Lunar X Prize. The competition will award $30 million to the first private company to land a craft on the moon by 2012. As part of the requirements, the craft must safely land, send live video feed back to Earth, travel at least 500 meters across the surface, send more video and carry a payload. Paragon is specifically responsible for the plant payload as well as the lander design and thermal controls systems. Interestingly enough, the CEO of Paragon, Taber MacCallum, and his wife Jane Poytner are experts in closed biological systems – they were two of the eight people who spent two years inside of Biosphere 2 in Arizona.

Georgia farmers plan to plant more cotton and peanuts this year. And timely spring rains have helped get both crops off to a good start. Corn growers, on the other hand, are seeing a reduction in their acreage due in part to that same rainfall.
Georgia cotton growers will plant more than 1.25 million acres of cotton this year, 25 percent to 30 percent more than last year, said Guy Collins a cotton expert with University of Georgia Cooperative Extension.
"We knew acreage would increase, but it's looking like it will be higher than we thought it would be," Collins said.
Cotton prices are near 70 cents per pound for growers, more than 10 cents more than in previous years. The higher prices, cued by higher global cotton demand, encouraged the increased acreage this year.
Timely spring rain around the state has kept planting right on schedule, he said. Between 75 percent and 80 percent of the cotton is in the ground. Harvest should begin in October and be complete by Thanksgiving.
Despite record rainfall during last year's harvest, Georgia farmers pulled in an average yield of 902 pounds per acre, a new state record.
In recent years, Deltapine 555 dominated 85 percent of the cotton acreage in the state. But the variety is being phased out, Collins said, leaving farmers looking for another "work-horse" variety.
"Georgia is in a state of flux in the cotton industry," he said. "We've got a lot of new varieties going into the fields. We are looking to see which variety is going to replace our staple. I think it will be a bunch of varieties, not just one. But, we will have to manage the crop differently than in the past."
Georgia peanut farmers will plant 540,000 acres this year, 6 percent more than last year, according to a U.S. Department of Agriculture report released March 31.
"The industry indicated we could withstand a slight increase because peanut consumption is up. They didn't need an excessive surplus, but could withstand a slight increase," said John Beasley, UGA Extension peanut agronomist.
"We're off to a good start with the peanut crop, and it looks like the majority of fields are up to a good stand," he said.
Most farmers are planting Georgia-06G. Other top varieties are Florida-07 and Tifguard, he said.
"Georgia-07W and Georgia Greener were in demand, but there wasn't enough seed to meet demand. These varieties are still in the seed-increase stage," Beasley said.
For the past few years, drought, then wet weather pushed planting dates into June or even July.
"This year we were cool in the later part of April with decent moisture. In the first of May, we had as ideal of a situation (for planting) as you could imagine," Beasley said.
Most of the crop was in the ground by May 8 and will be harvested in September.
Corn acreage is down in Georgia. Declining prices and wet weather in the spring and fall added to the reduction.
Farmers planted 380,000 acres this spring, 10 percent less than last year.
"We've gone through some nutrient deficiencies due to excessive rains, but the crop is expanding rapidly and as a whole the crop looks good," said Dewey Lee, a UGA Extension grain specialist.
The next three to four weeks will be a critical time for corn development and a time when its demand for water will be the highest, he said.
Farmers have planted 200,000 acres of wheat, 140,000 acres less than last year.
"Wheat acreage is down severely," Lee said. "We've begun harvest and are average to below average in yields. Test weights are off in some areas."

Westhaven Golf Club
Franklin, TN 37064
The course is really playing well. Greens look awesome. Our new Bent Hybrid made it through the record hot summer last year, and offers more months of lively growing greens in the spring and fall. Thanks for all your compliments. Be sure to call me if you want to play the course some time.
Arthur Hills is know for his challanging design and Westhaven is no exception. Westhaven is the kind of course that requires strategy and solid iron play. You must hit the greens to score well. You need to play the course at least 5-6 times before you have developved a strategy that you can use that best suits your skill level. It has two par four holes that are only about 300 yards but they both demand discipline off the tee and solid wedge play. From the members tees it has four par four holes that are well over 400 yards. It has two of the toughest par three holes anywhere in the mid state. There are no easy holes on this course. Every hole is designed to show you its "teeth" if you hit a poor shot.
The course has bermuda fairways that love the heat. We certainly have had plenty of heat this simmer (sic). The fairways are in great shape. The bent grass greens have held up surprisingly well this summer, despite the heat.
The bermuda rough is high off the edges of the greens - generally 3-4 inches thick. It is a difficult course to scramble for a par if you miss the green.
I like to walk the course about half the time. It is a very walker friendly club. Their rules require you to have a three wheel push cart or carry your bag. You can walk anytime the course is open. They have plenty of cold water stations sprinkled across the course every few holes.
They have a really nice practice facility. You need to practice in their chipping and bunker area before you play. The bunker sand is thicker than some courses in the area. You probably will have numerous sand attempts during the round. Get ready!
Westhaven probably represents the best Country Club value in mid Tennessee. I'm excited to hear the clubhouse will be opening next July.
The course is located in a quiet and serene setting, designed to fit the site. It is maturing nicely, and will eventually be quite spectacular. The club staff are friendly and dedicated to making each round enjoyable. When the tennis courts, swimming pool and club house are completed, Westhaven will have all the amenities that any family can enjoy completely. Join soon - this opportunity won't last long!
Played eighteen holes while visiting friends (members at West Haven). This course requires more thought than the typical "grip-it and rip-it" style course. After a couple of holes and some friendly advise, I found that developing a strategy for each hole was very beneficial. Shot accuracy is at a premium. Like all great course – if you get greedy, you will get in trouble – fast! I would love to play in a Select Shot tournament here.
I highly recommend this club especially for families, couples and those who like a relaxed environment. The staff and members are all very friendly. The course is challenging but the fairways are pretty wide open. There is water in play on almost half of the holes. The practice facilities are great, I enjoy the driving range, putting green, practice bunkers and chipping green!@

General Questions (9)
Do you sell t-shirts or other merchandise?
No. Star Wars is the property of Lucasfilm Ltd. and its licensee partners. For this reason we only produce a limited range of apparel and paraphernalia to be sold to our members only and at cost. No profit is made. This is solely to promote our club at conventions and to give gifts to the celebrities and company representatives who are fans of the club. All material is scrutinized and approved by Legion command and many of it is submitted to Lucasfilm representatives for their feedback prior to creation.
Do you sell costumes, masks, or props?
No. All of our costumes are hand made by our members, and none of our costumes or props are for sale to the general public.
Will you show up to my son's birthday party?
The Rebel Legion does not generally appear at private parties except for those involving children afflicted with life-threatening or chronic diseases or for members' personal friends. We prefer to appear at public events as opposed to private (non charity) related events.
What sort of events do you guys do?
The Rebel Legion marches in parades, raises funds for charity, appears at conventions, visits children's hospitals, troops educational and science centers, and a wide variety of other events.
The Legion does not participate in commercial ventures or business promotions unrelated to the Star Wars franchise, nor do we campaign for political or religious causes.
How can I get you to attend my event?
Please use our Appearance Request form.
How much do you charge for appearances?
The Rebel Legion is a volunteer organization and does not accept payment for appearances. However, we greatly appreciate donations made to charity organizations in our name. For a list of suitable charities, please consult our Charity Work information page.
Are you part of Lucasfilm?
No. The Rebel Legion is a volunteer fan-run organization. However, Lucasfilm recognizes the Legion as the premier Rebel costuming group, and we have worked with Lucasfilm officials on several occasions.
Are you part of the 501st Legion?
No. Although the Rebel Legion is the official "good guy" counterpart to the 501st and we regularly work together, we are separate groups. Many members belong to both clubs.
What is the Rebel Legion?
The Rebel Legion is an international Star Wars costuming organization that promotes the Star Wars franchise and helps others through charity work and community service.
Membership Questions (10)
How come you don't have ID numbers like the 501st Legion?
Members of the 501st Legion are issued unique four-digit ID numbers, such as TK-0421. When our club was officially founded in 2001, we did have ID numbers, but dropped them in early 2002. Members felt that ID numbers were more appropriate for the 501st because they represented faceless, nameless shock troops while the Rebels were a group of individuals with names and faces. The issue has come up several times over the years, and the membership has always voted against the idea.
Some detachments, such as Rebel Legion Starfighter Command, do issue three-digit ID numbers to members of individual Squadrons.
I'm a member of another fan club, is that okay?
Yes. Many Rebel Legion members belong to a variety of fan clubs.
My application was rejected! What can I do?
Read over the rejection message. It should contain information on how to improve your costume to Legion standards. You are also encouraged to appeal the decision to the Legion Membership Officer(LMO) via Email: firstname.lastname@example.com. You may do so by replying to the rejection e-mail.
What items qualify as acceptable source material?
Sources can include games, comic books, posters, action figures, trading cards and any other Star Wars material that has been licensed by Lucasfilm. Articles on Wikipedia and Wookieepedia should always be checked against officially licensed materials.
My costume isn't listed on the Costume Standards, Does that mean it won't be accepted?
No, the costume standards are not all inclusive but list the requirements for the more common costumes. If your costume is not listed, you should consult the Legion Membership Officer (LMO) via Email: firstname.lastname@example.com to find out if your costume is admissible or not.
Do you accept custom costumes?
The Rebel Legion focuses on costumes and characters from the officially licensed Star Wars media, and customization is accepted so long as there is precedent for it in the licensed material. In some cases, fan created designs such as fan fiction and original role playing characters may be accepted as a secondary costume for an existing member.
Are costumes from the Expanded Universe accepted?
Yes, costumes that have appeared in at least three (3) Lucasfilm licensed materials are accepted. Costumes with fewer than three licensed sources may be accepted as a secondary costume for an existing member.
Where do I get a costume?
Unfortunately, there are no high-quality, commercially available costumes licensed by Lucasfilm, and store-bought Halloween costumes are not generally accepted. All members construct their own costumes, usually with the assistance of more experienced members. If you are interested in making a costume, we recommend you consult these resources:
- Legion Costume Detachments
- Costuming Tutorials
- Costuming Forums
The best way to get involved is to contact your local Base or Outpost and see if you can help out as a "handler" at an event. This way you can get to know the local members and learn more about the costumes.
How do I join the Rebel Legion?
If you pass Legion membership requirements, please fill out our Membership Application.
What are the requirements for membership?
The Rebel Legion is an inclusive, equal opportunity club. In order to join you must be at least 18 years of age and must legally be considered an adult where you live. Due to issues of legal liability, the Rebel Legion cannot accept minors as members. For more information on this policy, please consult our Age Requirements F.A.Q. You must also own at least one movie-quality costume depicting a "good guy" from the Star Wars films or Expanded Universe.
For a more detailed explanation of Legion membership requirements, please refer to Article I of the Rebel Legion Club Charter. For more information on what constitutes a "professional-quality" costume, read through Article II of the Rebel Legion Club Charter and the list of Costuming Standards.
Age Requirements (10)
What is the punishment for lying about my age?
Minors who attempt to circumvent the age requirements in any way, including but not limited to lying or omitting their age or location, will be expelled from the club and have their forum account suspended until they are at least 18 years old (higher if required by local law) or for one year, whichever is longer. After this period is up, they may re-apply for membership.
So does that mean I can't wear costumes or go to conventions?
Of course not. You don't have to be an adult to make costumes or attend conventions, and anyone can socialize and talk to whomever they want (although your parents may have something to say about that).
What about a special rank or league for minors?
Some have proposed that we allow minors into a special "Junior League" or that minors be given a special rank such as "Cadet." Unfortunately, this is about as effective as a Superman T-shirt is against a hail of bullets from a minigun. Legally, we either allow minors to join or we don't. There is no middle ground.
If we were lucky, calling minors by a different name would simply be ignored, but it's possible that the judge or jury would view this as an attempt to exploit a loophole. Judges and juries are not so befuddled by technicalities that they cannot use their common sense. Often, people who try to exploit loop holes are punished worse for doing so.
But other groups allow minors to join?
Many volunteer organizations allow minors to join their clubs despite the risks. The 501st, the Rebel Legion, and the Jedi Assembly all accepted minors before adopting the current age restrictions.
The Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) accepts minors and they do have liability insurance, but they charge annual membership fees in order to pay for said insurance as well as incorporation fees, running a business office to receive legal notices, legal retainers, and so on. In the SCA, allmembers must sign waivers and insurance certificates must be pulled for every event, every time, and the SCA still gets sued anyway.
Other clubs use permission slips, erroneously believing that they are protecting themselves from being sued. Some simply don't take the risk seriously, figuring that nothing will happen. Most simply do not realize that they are risking all of their personal assets by allowing minors to join.
What if I don't attend any events without my parents until I am 18?
Despite what you say now, you may decide to throw caution to the wind, figuring "nothing will happen" and go to an event anyway. There is also no way to know if you are sincere about this promise. Society is full of gold diggers and freeloaders looking to exploit the court system and get rich quick at other people's expense. In any case, we would still be legally liable for anything that happened to you.
What about a permission slip or a waiver form?
The lawyers that the 501st consulted explained that liability simply cannot be waived by a parent or anyone else. A minor cannot sign anything and be liable for themselves, either. Your parents or guardians would not be legally obliged to honor any promissory note they may have signed. If you were injured at an event, you're medical insurance would attempt to recoup their expenses by suing us, regardless of your parents' decision.
Permission slips do not actually protect schools or anyone else from being sued by parents. They inform the parent/guardian of the nature of the off-campus activity and ask the parent to allow their child to participate. This can assist the school in their defense in the event of a lawsuit, but does not prevent them from being sued in the first place, nor does it prevent them from losing. Schools have lost lawsuits even when the parent signed a permission slip.
Why don't you allow minors to join the Legion?
Because minors are not legally responsible for themselves, any minor members of the Rebel Legion would become the legal responsibility of the club and its officers at any events where their parents are not present.
In 2002, several lawyers were consulted on this matter and we were advised to bar members due to the fact that neither we nor our sister group, the 501st, have the liability insurance, financial resources, or legal standing to help our club officers and members defend themselves in a lawsuit. Should we lose, any officers or members named as defendants could lose their personal savings, retirement, cars, or even their homes, and find themselves thousands or even millions of dollars in debt. Even if we were the victor in such a lawsuit, the costs involved in defending ourselves would financially devastate all involved.
Since this is just a fun hobby, this is not a risk that our members or officers are willing to take.
What is a minor?
A minor is the legal term for someone who is not yet an adult. Minors are not held accountable for their actions or safety. Instead, the responsibility falls to those adults who are supervising them.
How old do I have to be to become a member?
World-wide legal adult age varies from place to place, therefore the minimum age for membership is at least 18 years or higher if required by local law. Under no circumstances will an exception ever be made. Consult your local laws if you are unsure if you are old enough to join.
How old do I have to be to register for the forum?
You must be at least 13 years of age.
Forum Rules (8)
What is a troll?
A Troll is an internet term used to describe a person who deliberately causes trouble in a newsgroup, forum, mailing list or other online community. Examples of trolling behavior include:
- Posts that are complaining about or advertising something that is in no way related to the Rebel Legion, Star Wars, or costuming.
- Any "You guys suck" "get a life" "Star Wars isn't real you geeks" etc. type messages.
- Starting topics that are guaranteed to turn into a flame war, i.e. Mac vs PC, Religion A vs. Religion B, Scotland vs. England, etc.
- Posting lots and lots of threads with no point other than to clutter the boards.
- Picking fights and saying mean things about or to people without reason.
I found an eBay auction for a prop or costume. Should I post it here?
Do not post eBay auctions unless:
- You are the seller or you have the permission of the seller
- You are a bidder on that auction. Imagine how you would feel if you lost out on a major bargain because of someone who wasn't even bidding on the item.
- You suspect that the auction is scam or is ridiculous (e.g. real working lightsabres, Tatooine sand, etc.)
How do I tell if a given prop dealer is unlicensed or not?
There are only a handful of companies licensed by Lucasfilm to produce costume and prop replicas. They are:
- Hasbro (Force FX Lightsabers, Toy blasters, etc.)
- Rubies Costumes (costumes, masks, and helmets)
- eFX Collectibles (props, helmets, studio-scale miniatures)
Additionally, there are several companies who are no longer licensed to produce Star Wars products or are no longer in business.
- Don Post Studios (masks and helmets)
- Master Replicas (props, helmets, studio-scale miniatures)
- Icons (props)
- Illusive Concepts
Other companies such as Sideshow Collectibles, Galoob, or Dark Horse Comics are licensed to produce other Star Wars products like toys or comic books. If you find a prop dealer and their name does not appear on the above list, then they are probably unlicensed.
If you are still unsure, consult the Legion Membership Officer (LMO) via Email:email@example.com.
What is the Legion policy on unlicensed prop and costume dealers?
An unlicensed prop or costume dealer is someone who sells replicas of props or costumes without being authorized by the copyright holder to do so. Links to unlicensed prop dealers or instructions for contacting said prop dealers may not be posted in public forums.
What is the spoiler policy?
A spoiler is information about the plot, characters, costumes, etc from a new film, book, comic, game, etc. Press releases and other official information released by the producers of a new film or television series is acceptable. Anything else besides this must include a spoiler warning written in the title of the forum topic. If you are replying to an existing thread, you should warn readers that your post contains a spoiler. Anything lacking a spoiler warning will have one added to it by the moderators.
What is flaming?
Flame, flaming, and flamer are internet terms for malicious postings and communication on the internet. Flaming is not tolerated on the Legion website.
How should I treat fellow posters on the forum?
Be respectful. If you disagree with someone on an issue, share your opinion a tactful manner. Don't insult or resort to name calling.
Is swearing allowed?
No. Swear words will automatically be censored from your posts. Attempting to cheat or trick this word filter by changing S $ or replacing certain characters with an * is equally unacceptable. The Rebel Legion is a family friendly, PG-rated group/website.

The biblical figure of Moses has been the center of fascination for over 2,000 years, but what do we really know
about him? Was he a real person? Did the Exodus truly happen? Or is the story in the Pentateuch a mythical tale
written centuries after the alleged events? Why does Moses's story resemble that of other, older lawgivers and
legendary predecessors? Why are there so many elements of sun and wine god myths in the legend of Moses? What does
the focus on the serpent in his story signify? Who was Yahweh? The Elohim? Learn more...

In 2001, a line drawing of the tiny Orpheus Bakkikos crucifix was pictured on the cover of Timothy Freke
and Peter Gandy's The Jesus Mysteries. The image created a bit of a sensation, as apologists scrambled to
debunk the object because of its similarities to supposed "Christian" iconography. Very soon, cries of "forgery!"
were ringing out on the internet and beyond, and the integrity of the Jesus Mysteries authors was impugned
with fury, for exposing the amulet to the light of day. But were such charges of forgery appropriate and based on a
thorough scientific investigation? Learn more...

fathers, as well as Christian traditions, rituals, architecture and artifacts. From a wide variety of sources, it
is clear that associating, identifying and equating Christ with the sun began in ancient times and has continued

Static-X have officially disbanded. The band went on hiatus in 2009, originally so frontman Wayne Static could focus on his 'Pighammer' solo album. While Wayne Static toured under the Static-X name last year, he says in a new interview that Static-X are no more.
In the interview with the Gauntlet, Wayne Static confirmed that Static-X was done for good. Drummer Nick Oshiro left the group in 2009, while lead guitarist Koichi Fukuda and bassist Tony Campos both departed the act in 2010. Wayne Static recruited all new members for the 2012 Noise Revolution Tour, but the string of dates proved to be the band's last.
Tension built between Wayne Static and Tony Campos shortly before the bassist's exit. "Him and I haven't been getting along for years," Static admits. "It was really bad at the end. The last couple of tours, we never talked or anything like that. So I made this deal with Tony where I paid him 'X' amount of dollars quarterly to use the name Static-X, which I thought was a pretty generous deal. He got a lot of money for doing nothing, for just sitting on his ass doing nothing. I wish someone would give me some money for doing nothing."
Static continues, "Apparently, he [Campos] was really pissed off because I said in some interviews that Static-X were never, like, all great buddies and friends and all that kind of stuff, and we never hung out. So he told me, like, 'Since you said we're not friends, then why should I help you out?' I'm, like, 'Who gives a f—? It's business, dude.' And that's the truth. We weren't friends; we never hung out. And there's nothing wrong with that; there's a lot of bands like that."
"The last e-mail Tony sent me, he said he hopes we never have to talk again," reveals Static. "And I said, 'Believe me, this is the last you'll ever hear from me.' And that's the way we left. And it sucks. I think it's sad that things have to end that way. And it happens to a lot of bands … Static-X is done. The end. No more Static-X."

This image is large and may not be laying out clearly on your browser. Try clicking on the image to see it better, and magnify if you need to. Or click on this link to download or view isolated. I had originally put this image together up to about the year 1000 for a debate on Christian origins. I got inspired to expand when I had to discuss origins of the Reformation and ideas from it. I think this is a useful reference post, and also might lead to some good discussion.
Because the reformation is so huge, I had to limit scope. At this point the chart covers the origins of the those sects that came to America from England, the English reformation and development. It doesn't include the minor dissenting sects that don't appear to have had influence on America.
Arrows are for strong influence or descent, these sects are interacting with one another and passing ideas between them just as religions today do. Coloring of the arrows is to help reduce visual complexity, and it doesn't mean anything beyond that. Where possible I've tried to include a sample work in parenthesis for each sect making it clear how I'm using the term and also demonstrating at a glance the evolution in thought. It is also for the early part, letting the chart do double duty explicating the origins of the bible.
In terms of the colors of the circles:
Salmon is for groups that are Jewish sects. They may have Christian aspects but they are not yet meaningfully Christian and are in some sense fundamentally Jewish or Samaritan.
Light Blue are proto-Christianities.
Yellow are full blown alternate Christianities, from ancient times. "Gnosticism" used in the religious sense.
Purple is for groups that I can meaningfully call Catholic, western or eastern rite.
Pink groups that broke away Catholicism. Sects that I would agree are "schismatic".
Dark Olive Green non-Christian religions.
Yellow-Green is for non-Christian groups with strong Christian influence.
Muddy Pink I'm using for Hermetic Christianity.
Dark-Brown for proto-Protestantism
Red-Brown for Protestantism
Magenta for the non-creedal sects of the Radical Reformation and their descendants
A few things worth noting.
- Christianity originated from a variety Jewish and Samaritan cults, which were not part of the mainstream nor the branch that survived.
- Catholicism represents a coming together of various groups. An early partial consensus, not some sort of original revelation.
- Christianity has always been highly diverse.
- The elements of the Protestant Reformation are very old. In a way, the Cathari and the Beguines are the father and mother of the reformation, with Christian Humanism playing an important role. Everything develops from the 13th century combination of:
- primitivism
- a desire for a lay church
- a theological neo-gnosticism lite
The other is I'm not sure about the Ebionites and the Elkasaites. If anyone has any suggestions there about the relationship please jump in. I think I'm going to need to jump into some Dead Sea Scrolls material to work this out.

The "It Girl" is the girl that EVERYONE wants to be. She has everything that you want so you tend to envy her. She does all the things that you can't do so you grow to hate her. Being an "It Girl" is having the latest shits, (the best clothing and always stays fly) and the prettiest face. Her attitude can be fucked up or perfect like her looks. Her presence is always appreciated, ALL the guys Want her and ALL the girls want to be her!

An It Girl, is a girl that 'everyone' wants to be, but being an It Girl, means, sucking every guys cock, being the shires slut, and being put on the spit, at least once a week. so in the end, no one wants to be the It Girl, no one wants to know the It Girl, the It Girl is the little girl in the corner, full of all kinds of sexually transmitted infections (STI's).
All the little girls that dress like a slut, act like a slut, and be like a slut. there the ones that end up like that. It Girl.
by signed May 09, 2006
An It Girl is a trend-setting (in fashion, lifestyle, etc.) woman or girl with a ton of self-confidence and self-worth that sets the example of how to have it all, and look good doing it. She knows exactly who she is and what she wants, and has an unbelievable generosity of spirit; always taking time to be kind and charitable. She is like a sparkling light, and everyone around her are like the moths drawn to the light. Her magnetism is out of control, and she leaves a lasting emotional and physical impression on everyone she encounters; she's iconic. She is extremely intelligent and driven, and takes calculated risks, always learning from mistakes and those around her. She creates beauty and art through whatever talent she is blessed with. She isn't afraid to be herself and never follows the latest trends, instead creates them through her unique and impeccable sense of style. She has premium taste and very high standards, only surrounding herself with the best in all aspects of life, such as family, love, friends, and career. She is the ultimate in class and always keeps her cool. She may be incredibly attractive, but she is NOT for sale, and treasures herself too much to be used or exploited. She is always in control of herself and makes decisions based on what SHE wants for herself. However, she is NOT PERFECT, and she doesn't claim to be, no human is, she is just absolutely thrilling to be around and because she has such an inner beauty, the outside can't help but follow! There is no denying when you are in the presence of an It Girl, you just know it!
Notable It Girls: Gwen Stephani, Angelina Joile, Sarah Jessica Parker, Katherine Heigel, Oprah Winfrey, Scarlett Johanssen, Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce Knowles, Gwenyth Paltrow
Also, having material things doesn't make you an It Girl, your individuality and self-respect does!

Someone admired for her beauty and brains! The It-Girl is the girl everybody wants to be, also even secretly, therefore REAL It-girls have the leading advanced education, clothing style and lifestyle! Typical It-Girls are Gloria Vanderbilt, the Balash cousins and the Balash sisters, Angelina Jolie, Sharon Stone. NOTICE: an It-Girl is not someone who is dubbed one simply by the media. An It-Girl is someone who receives much respect for her personality, character, intelligence and education as well as her prominent heritage (most typical, smart and notable, impeccable breedings include firstly the Kennedys, the Astors, the Balash family, the Vanderbilts). Other families might be rich but simply coming from a rich background does NOT qualify one as an It-Girl. An It-girl has respect for herself and an outstanding, fabulous taste in clothes and lifestyle.

Uhh, I did a bbs update today, but there shouldnt be anything different about the color schemes. Be more specific.
PS: There are always different visual Themes you can choose from through your profile, you know.
Back to normal now?
I honestly don't know what's in the new 1.0.3 update. I just update whenever I have time. Speaking of time, I finally got around to including little preview images when you're choosing your Color Theme in the profile manager. I also changed the SkullRose buttons to suit each theme.
I liked the changes, it did look good.Why back to normal? =)
I also changed the SkullRose buttons to suit each theme.
It was the default BBS theme, and that's just despicable.
Just played with colors. Aaz hates it
lol, it kind of has a cloud look to it
I'd still love to revamp the theme for the boards. I reckon it'd be a fun challenge

Fort Washington, PA Waterproofing Services
Unfortunately, water leakage in basements is a very common problem. While there are some know problem areas within basements that experience leaks, there can be many different places where water can penetrate your foundation, gaining access into your Fort Washington, PA home. More often than not, the cause of water leakage in your basement is caused by the pressure that water builds up as the water table rises and falls in the subterranean soil around your home. This is known as hydrostatic pressure. Other common ways that water can make its way into your Fort Washington home is through cracks in your foundation wall, pipes penetrating through the foundation, or window wells leaking.
Too often, Fort Washington homeowners incorrectly assume that waterproofing your basement is as simple as applying a sealant to the basement walls. While this will relieve small, insignificant dampness temporarily it is not a permanent fix. If you seal your basement in this way, water leakage and damages will continue to occur. The reasoning behind this temporary fix is that sealants are not made to withstand the pressure that builds up with water. Without a proper basement waterproofing system to relieve that hydrostatic pressure, water issues will continue to occur and get worse over time.
