By Reginald Kaigler (DEMCAD)
If black people think Obama was a better choice over Palin and McCain, they simply don't get it. Both Republicans and Democrats represent Wall Street. In 2008, Most of Obama's top campaign donors were directly linked to Wall Street. According to opensecrets.org, Obama's second largest donor source was no other than the notorious Goldman Sachs.
Goldman Sachs was top Obama donor
According to Center for Responsive Politics, Obama received $994,795 during 2007 and 2008 from Goldman Sachs' political action committee and individual contributors. The Goldman Sachs that was accused of fraud by the SEC for creating junk derivatives, selling them to their clients and betting against the same derivatives. They eventually agreed to pay $550 million dollars, 250 million went to the defrauded investors and $300 million went to the Treasury department. This same Treasury department run by Goldman Sachs buddy Tim Geithner. Henry Paulson, the treasury secretary before Geithner worked at Goldman Sachs.
Goldman Sachs to pay record settlement in fraud suit, change business practices
Both Obama and McCain recieved big money from Wall Street. And the same big contributors who supported Obama, supported Bush in 2004. The fact of the matter is that there was no substantive choice between McCain and Obama. If anything, blacks would have been smarter to back a non-black puppet.
After all, when a ship is sinking, it is smart to make sure the puppet captain doesn't look like you, especially when you are already a minority group in a weaken position. Boxing legend Ali said it best on a TV interview decades ago when he was asked if he wanted to be president.
"No, it's dangerous....in other words, here's a ship, people are dancing on the ship, a lot of money is on the ship, a lot of food is on the ship, and I can not integrate on the ship. I can not have equality on the ship. I'm just in the galley working. And I never could get up to see the captain. All of sudden, a man says, "Hey Ali, come on up out of the galley. I want you to come up and have something to drink. What do you want?" And give me the number spot from the galley to the number one spot. I say this ship must be sinking!"
Exactly. Black folks, the ship must be sinking and we foolish fell for this trap. The elite put that fool Obama in place to make him the fall guy. Unfortunately, 95% of black voters couldn't see the obvious. I voted for the McCain, not because I liked him. I simply thought it would have been smarter for blacks to support Clinton and McCain, since the empire was already collapsing. Now, people will use Obama as an excuse to claim racism is no longer a problem and the elite will use race as a weapon to tear us apart. People will say, "That ni@@er, ruin America!"
It's already happening if you're paying attention. Since Obama has been in office, he has nominated corrupt political players such as Tim Geithner and Tom Daschle, escalated the war in Afghanistan, order unmanned aircraft attacks in Pakistan, continued the war in Iraq, supported the Wall Street bailouts, promoted a failed stimulus package, pushed through an unpopular health care law and divided the American people.
Personally, I can't wait until America gets over this foolishness involving race and racism. After all, race is a political creation. And now Obama is going to be used as a political tool to punish Americans of all colors.
George W. Bush (R)
John Kerry (D) donors
Barack Obama (D) donors

Strictly speaking, this isn't the First Drive of the F10 BMW M5; it was officially launched some months ago, yet this was our first opportunity to drive the six-speed manual – a car built solely for US enthusiasts.
When faced with a plethora of exotic European machinery that never makes it across the Atlantic, it's almost impossible to fathom how the US would get a model European enthusiasts would clamor for. However, this is the case with the M5 six-speed– built at the behest of BMW North America to satisfy our stick-shifting desires.
In last month's issue we reported on a statement from the head of quattro GmbH who claimed the world will never see another manually operated Audi RS model, and yet here's BMW creating a manual M for us.
How should we react? With our checkbooks, of course. If we've demanded it, and they've built it, we sure as hell better buy it. Because if the six-speed misses expectations it could go the way of the manual TT RS, where sales dropped to the point that it justified the death of all manual RS models…
After driving the BMW M5 and M6 equipped with M-DCT transmission, it felt liberating to jump into the three-pedal M5 and make all the decisions myself: when to change up or down, how aggressively to release the clutch and – the greatest pleasure of all – when to execute a heel 'n toe downshift. The pedals were perfectly placed, so even my first attempt looked like I'd been doing it daily. The placement flattered the driver, eliciting a satisfaction difficult to express.
Teaming up with a colleague, we decided to compare the six-speed manual and seven-speed M-DCT M5 on the track. Again, it was good to be commander of your own destiny. However, it soon became apparent around Laguna Seca's fast turns that the DCT's ratios and its swifter changes saw the stick-shift lose a few tenths in each turn. In some turns the manual's gearing seemed better suited, but in others it was too close to the rev-limiter to avoid another costly gear change. By the end of the lap, the DCT was a couple of car lengths ahead and a cold reality slapped us in the face.
The latest flappy paddle transmissions do offer genuine advantages on the racetrack. They can execute sexy throttle blips on down-change and can even vary the shift speed. And with the M5 engineered for DCT, the six-speed manual was always going to be an afterthought. However, we'd still opt for the three-pedal car. It engenders a more emotional response and would make each journey memorable. It's also 44 lb lighter, although 0.1sec slower to 60mph at 4.3sec. It allegedly has a different final drive ratio, although BMW's spec didn't confirm it.
Off the record, we were told one reason the manual wasn't available in Europe was because it couldn't sustain high speed without overheating, making it unsuitable for autobahn use. For our purposes, where revenue-collecting police departments mean most US motorists don't exceed the speed limit for long, the clutch felt light enough to be practical in heavy traffic, and the gearshift was reassuringly positive. If nothing else, this could be the last European über-sedan with a manual transmission, and that alone should be worth owning.
M6 Coupe
We reported on the M6 Convertible in our 10/12 issue, and you can read more about it elsewhere in this issue. However, BMW is apparently committed to releasing a new model on an almost monthly basis, so when we had an opportunity to drive the Coupe version at Laguna Seca, we grasped it.
Driven in harmony with the M5, the Coupe seemed to possess more rear-end grip, the M5's rear tires feeling almost "greasy" in comparison. This might be thanks to the M6's 0.5" wider wheels for the same sized tires, or it might simply be the 130 lb weight saving with the Coupe. Either way, the M6 felt more stable both under braking and acceleration.
Compared to the rather portly but also commendably rigid M6 Convertible, the Coupe saves a useful 250 lb thanks to weight saving measures like its double-bubble carbon fiber roof. You could also find an additional 42 lb weight saving with the inclusion of BMW's new carbon-ceramic front brakes.
The high-performance brake system will be optionally available on the M5 and M6 in early 2013, swapping 15.7" steel rotors for 16.1" M Carbon Ceramic items, with both using six-piston calipers, conventionally painted blue but finished in gold for the lightweight version. To fit them, you also require the optional 20x9.5/10.5" M forged wheels.
Fitted to the M6 track cars we were driving, the weight saving and extraordinary ability of the brakes meant it was like giving the Coupe an additional 50hp. As the conventional brakes absorbed heat and faded on our three hot laps, the carbon-ceramic rotors remained more powerful and totally consistent over the same distance. You could easily reel in an M5 with conventional brakes, simply out-braking it into any given corner.
We didn't get an opportunity to sample the brakes on public roads, so can't report how easy they would be to modulate in traffic. However, they did work well from cold on the track, which was a good sign. And we're confident BMW wouldn't release them for sale until they worked flawlessly…
Although not many M5 or M6 owners will track their cars, anybody who's contemplating it should definitely wait for this option to become available. It makes these heavy cars more responsive, more consistent and considerably more fun. Used in concert with the M5's manual transmission, we imagine these brakes would compensate for any gearing deficit.
Otherwise, the M6 Coupe shares the mechanical specification of the M5 and M6 Convertible, sporting the identical 560hp, 500 lb-ft S63B44Tü V8 engine with its twin turbos placed between the reverse-flow cylinder heads. Zero-to-60mph is 4.1sec and top speed is limited to 155mph.
The well laid-out interior features the iDrive control with large flatscreen display, plus buttons for power delivery, M adaptive suspension, steering response and shift speed. There are also two M buttons on the steering wheel that allow you to shortcut these settings; saving your favorites through the iDrive.
All this is available on both the M5 and M6, plus many more features such as the active M diff, M-tuned DSC and that very capable M-DCT transmission. Furthermore, the cars offer significant improvements in fuel economy and real-world performance over their V10-powered predecessors.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (April 16, 2012) – The current U.S. Women's National Team Weekly update released on April 16 includes briefs on U.S. players competing overseas and other team news.
QUICK SET 1 – FIVE MORE CLUB TITLES FOR AMERICANS: Members of the U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team pulled in lots of gold over the weekend in closing out their respective club volleyball seasons. Five different foreign leagues completed playoffs this past weekend, and at least one American was on each of those five winning teams. Destinee Hooker (San Antonio, Texas) led her Sollys/Nestle squad to the Brazil Superliga championship title with a three-set victory over Unilever on April 14. In a battle of U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team setters, Carli Lloyd (Bonsall, Calif.) and her top-seeded Yamamay Busto Arsizio teammates defeated second-seed Lindsey Berg's (Honolulu) MC-Carnaghi Villa Cortese squad in the fifth match of the Italian Serie A1 best-of-five final round on April 15 to capture the gold medal. In the Russia Super League, Jordan Larson (Hooper, Neb.) paced Dinamo Kazan to the league title culminating on April 13 with a 3-1 advantage in the best-of-five championship series over Dinamo Moscow. Catano was led by U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team players Angie Forsett (Lake Mary, Fla.), Courtney Thompson (Kent, Wash.) and Jessica Jones (Naperville, Ill.) in leading Catano to a four-match upset over top-seed Caguas in the best-of-seven series of the Puerto Rico Super League.

QUICK SET 2 – GOLDEN OVERSEAS: Aside from the five club titles won by U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team members mentioned above, the U.S. has had players capture several other league titles this club season. Logan Tom (Salt Lake City, Utah) and her Turkish Fenerbahce Universal squad won the CEV Champions League, the top European Federation club tournament, and the Turkish League regular season. Carli Lloyd (Bonsall, Calif.) and Yamamay Busto Arsizio won the CEV Cup, the second level tournament in the European Federation system, as well as the Italian Serie A1 regular season title.

LLOYD WITH BUSTO ARSIZIO IN ITALY: U.S. Women's National Team setter Carli Lloyd (Bonsall, Calif.) is playing for Yamamay Busto Arsizio of the Italian Serie A1 for the 2011-2012 season. After finishing the Italian Serie A1 regular season with a 19-1 record and 57 points to claim the regular season title, playoff-top-seed Busto Arsizio played a back-and-forth best-of-five championship round series with second-seed MC Carnaghi Villa Cortese. After winning the first match in four sets on April 7, Busto Arsizio could not rally in the second match in a 25-27, 25-23, 25-17, 20-25, 15-7 loss on April 9. Lloyd set the squad to a 39 kill percent and added five points with three blocks and two kills. Busto Arsizio bounced back from the setback with a convincing 25-17, 25-16, 25-17 victory over Villa Cortese on April 11 to take a 2-1 lead in the series. Lloyd scored five her team's 18 blocks in the match as Busto Arsizio hit for a 44 kill percent and .273 hitting efficiency. However, Busto Arsizio could not keep the momentum in the fourth set with a 25-22, 25-23, 25-18 loss on April 13 to force a deciding fifth match. Lloyd set the offense to a 32 kill percent, but Busto Arsizio was out-blocked 14-5 in the match. As the entire series was back-and-forth, so was the deciding fifth match before Busto Arsizio came away with a 25-14, 28-30, 25-15, 23-25, 16-14 victory on April 15. Busto Arsizio rallied from a 12-11 deficit in the fifth set to win its second major title in less than a month (won the CEV Cup on March 31). In the clinching match, Lloyd set the squad to a 40 kill percent and a .338 hitting efficiency while adding a kill and block. With the victory, Busto Arsizio captured its first Italian Serie A1 title in its first-ever appearance in the final round. For photo galleries of the Italian Serie A1 playoffs, click here.
BERG, WILSON WITH VILLA CORTESE IN ITALY: U.S. Women's National Team setter Lindsey Berg (Honolulu) and past U.S. National Team player Makare Wilson (Gardena, Calif.) are playing for MC-Carnaghi Villa Cortese in the Italian Serie A1 in 2011-2012. Villa Cortese, seeded second in the Italian Serie A1 playoffs, bounced back from a best-of-five championship round series loss to top-seed Yamamay Busto Arsizio with a 25-25, 25-23, 25-17, 20-25, 15-7 victory on April 9. Wilson notched a team-high 20 points with 15 kills on 24 attacks and just two errors to go with five blocks. Berg set the squad with a 39 kill percent. Villa Cortese lost the third match of the series 25-17, 25-16, 25-17 on April 11. Wilson again was the team's leading scorer in the third match with 11 points via six blocks and five kills. The squad connected for only a 26 kill percent as Busto Arsizio scored 18 blocks in the three-set victory. Villa Cortese turned right around with a 25-22, 25-23, 25-18 victory on April 13 to force a fifth and deciding match. Wilson provided seven of her team's 14 blocks as part of an 11-point performance, while Berg set the squad to a 38 kill percent. Villa Cortese continued to fight for the championship all through the fifth and deciding match before falling 25-14, 28-30, 25-15, 23-25, 16-14. Berg set the squad to a 32 kill percent for the match, while Wilson tacked on 13 points via 10 kills on 26 attacks and three blocks. The loss marks the third straight year Villa Cortese's playoff season ended in the championship round, and second consecutive time in a deciding fifth set.

After ending the Russia Super League regular season in first place with a 17-5 record and 49 points, Kazan captured the best-of-five championship round playoff series over Dinamo Moscow in four matches. After Dinamo Kazan capturing the final round opening match on April 8 in an impressive three sets, Dinamo Moscow evened the series on April 9 with an 18-25, 25-21, 25-23, 28-26 victory. Larson scored 14 points with 10 kills on 30 attacks, two aces and two blocks. She added a 75 positive percent and 58 excellent percent on 36 service receptions. Kazan gained a 2-1 series lead on April 12 with a 25-16, 25-16, 24-26, 25-19 victory. Larson contributed eight kills on 24 attacks, two blocks and an ace for 11 points. She charted a 91 positive percent and 56 excellent percent on 34 reception attempts. Kazan closed out the series on April 13 with a nail-biting 22-25, 26-24, 25-27, 25-22, 15-12 victory. Larson collected 16 points in the win with 12 kills on 39 attacks and four blocks. She added a 56 positive service reception on a team-high 41 chances. Larson finished second in the Russia Superleague most valuable player voting (3 first-place votes, 2 second-place votes, 2 third-place votes) behind winner Angelina Grun.Three weeks earlier Kazan finished with the bronze medal in the CEV Champions League for the best club team in Europe.

FORSETT, THOMPSON, JONES, WITH CATANO IN PUERTO RICO: U.S. Women's National Team setter Courtney Thompson (Kent, Wash.), outside hitter Angie Forsett (Lake Mary, Fla.) and middle blocker Jessica Jones (Naperville, Ill.) are playing for Catano in the Puerto Rico Super League. Jones led the league in blocks with 80 during the regular season and finished second in the most valuable player voting with 10 votes. In the Puerto Rico Super League championship best-of-seven final round, Catano captured the title in four sets in upsetting fashion over top-seed Caguas. Catano started the final round by defeating Caguas 25-21, 25-17, 25-23 on April 10. "We prepared for this match and were able to stabilize our blocking throughout the match," said Jones, who scored 13 points including seven blocks. Forsett added 12 points in the series opener. Thompson chipped in 20 assists and 14 digs in the victory. Catano showed the opening match was not a fluke by stopping Caguas 25-23, 23-25, 25-22, 25-17 on April 12. Jones piled up 16 points in including four blocks, while Forsett downed 13 points with four blocks. Thompson provided 27 assists, 14 digs, two blocks and three points in the victory. Catano moved to within one victory of the title with a 27-25, 29-27, 13-25, 22-25, 15-10 win in the third match of the series on April 14. Jones notched 19 points with 16 kills and three blocks, while Forsett matched her point total with 13 kills and six blocks. Thompson set 30 assists to go with 16 digs and three points. In the fourth match on April 15, Catano started strong with a 25-20 victory, only to look shaky with 25-21 and 25-9 losses in the second and third sets. Catano rallied back to win the fourth set 25-18, then put away the match and series with a 15-12 victory in the final set. Forsett scored a team-high 15 points, while Jones added 11 points. Thompson amassed 31 assists to go with three points. "We started to click at the right moment," Thompson said. "We won eight strong matches in the semifinal and final series and we have a lot of respect for a great opponent like Caguas." Thompson was honored as the most valuable player of the final round. By winning the Puerto Rico Super League playoff, Catano will represent NORCECA at the FIVB Volleyball Women's Club World Championship to be held in October at Doha, Qatar.
OTHER AMERICAN HIGHLIGHTS IN PUERTO RICO: Meagan Ganzer of Ponce was selected as the top opposite for the Puerto Rico Superior League All-Star Team after finishing as the league's top scorer during the regular season.

Rabita Baku enters the Azerbaijan Super League playoffs as the top seed after finishing the regular season 11-0. Already with a 4-0 record in the Super League playoffs, Rabita Baku rallied to defeat Lokomotiv 20-25, 25-23, 25-14, 25-20 on April 11 to start the second round robin.

Now this is the proper way to kick off an Old School episode of Raw. The Undertaker is in Buffalo, and the fans are pumped. We're going to get a healthy dose of nostalgia, so let the retro introduction play as we go live on USA.
Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler are even dressed the part for tonight at the First Niagara Center. But if anyone can rain on this parade as soon as it gets going, it's CM Punk and Paul Heyman. Punk says he should be main eventing this year's WrestleMania, and it's because of the fans that he's not. He maintains that the WWE Universe screwed him out of what was rightfully his, and that if he's not defending �his� title, he sees no reason to be at WrestleMania. But he figured out a purpose, which is to take something precious from the fans: he's going to beat the Undertaker and end The Streak. The gauntlet is officially thrown down, but Randy Orton wants to throw in his two cents. Orton doesn't think that Punk should be so confident, and he wants the fans to decide who they'd rather see face 'Taker in New Jersey. And that's not all! Big Show chides both men, saying that even though he's lost to the Deadman at WrestleMania in the past, he didn't have his KO punch back then. You need to be a giant to end The Streak, or so says Show. Oh, and Sheamus wants in on this too, given that he's never faced the Undertaker before. Vickie Guerrero actually has a good idea on how to settle this, booking a four-way match between the wrestlers with the winner going on to face the Phenom at WrestleMania. Now there's a match with some serious stakes.
Match 1 � Antonio Cesaro vs. Ryback
Ryback shows off his power right from the opening bell, causing Cesaro to take a powder on the floor to catch his breath. A lengthy hanging vertical suplex leads to a two count for Ryback. Cesaro fights back with punches and kicks in the corner, but he's caught and pressed overhead while trying to come off the top turnbuckle. Ryback chases Cesaro and ends up eating a big boot to the face that knocks him off the apron and into the retro fence. Cesaro is feeling pretty good about himself as we head out to commercials. And... it doesn't take long for that to change after the break. Ryback manages to counter the Neutralizer with the Shell Shock, and it's good night Antonio. But not so fast Ryback. Mark Henry meets him up near the stage for a bit of a staredown.
Match 2 � Mark Henry vs. Zack Ryder
I've been reading rumors about Ryder campaigning for a more serious gimmick. Sadly, it won't be in time to save him from this. Henry takes about 90 seconds to put Zack away with a World's Strongest Slam.
Match 3 � Dolph Ziggler vs. The Miz
Hey, Miz's mic doesn't work right away, just like in the old days! Miz has someone special in his corner: it's the Nature Boy himself, Ric Flair. He's happy in the opening sequence as Miz gets a chance to strut his stuff (literally, of course). Ziggler fights back with a jumping DDT for a near fall as Big E Langston looks on, arms folded. Dolph gets the sleeper applied, forcing Miz down to one knee. He eventually works his way out, hitting his jumping corner clothesline. Miz connects with a double ax handle off the top rope, causing Ziggler's girl and bodyguard to get involved. Flair tries to chop down Langston to no avail. Miz ends up saving Ric before returning to the ring and maneuvering Ziggler into the Figure Four. The fans eat it up as Ziggler taps out, leaving Flair and Ziggler to celebrate by dropping elbows on imaginary foes.
You know, except for the graphics and Flair, this episode hasn't been very Old School so far. Ah, but here comes Hacksaw Jim Duggan with some friends. #NeverMind
Match 4 � Jack Swagger vs. Hacksaw Jim Duggan
Swagger has Zeb Colter with him, while Duggan comes out with Sgt. Slaughter and Dusty Rhodes. Unfortunately for the legends, Duggan's trademark 2x4 ends up getting used on all of them. Duggan suffers in the clutches of the Patriot Lock, and I guess the match is thrown out or something.
Run for your lives! It's The Marine 3! #Really?
Swagger's backstage interview is cut short by an enraged Alberto Del Rio. A classic pull apart ensues amid some yelling and such.
Match 5 � Team Hell No vs. The Primetime Players
Apparently the PTPers want Ted DiBiase to manage them, but he's only going to do it if they can beat Team Hell No. I don't like their chances. And it turns out as you'd expect, with Kane getting the pin via choke slam. The Million Dollar Man stuffs a benjy in Darren Young's mouth as he heads for the back, but Daniel Bryan decides he's going to go back and claim it for himself.
Match 6 � Brodus Clay and Tensai vs. 3MB
The Honky Tonk Man comes out with the big guys, but that meanie Heath Slater won't let him talk. The match only lasts about 30 seconds, and Slater ends up eating a guitar shot from Honky Tonk Man when he crashes the post-match dance party.
Match 7 � Kofi Kingston vs. Fandango
Evne though it's his Raw debut, Fandango has a problem with the way Justin Roberts pronounces his name. Roberts gives it a few more shots, but Fandango refuses to compete. Well, shoot.
After a video package replays the latest confrontation between Brock Lesnar and Triple H, The Game storms down the aisle. Trips reveals that after he had his arm broken by Brock, he was back in the gym training every day but with no real purpose. Then he sat beside Vince McMahon's bed after his hip surgery and saw his wife and kids crying, and he smiled inside. Because once McMahon came back and ended up facing Heyman and Lesnar again, Triple H was ready. Now it's only five weeks until the big dance, and The Game is calling Lesnar out. Reminding Brock that he got split open last week, HHH proposes they finish what they started at WrestleMania.
The Shield has a little video to react to some of the guys competing in tonight's main event. One gets the feeling that the losers of the four-way will be matched against The Shield at WrestleMania, no?
Match 8 � Wade Barrett vs. Alberto Del Rio
Swagger and Colter come out to the stage to get a good look at this one. Del Rio draws some energy from the fans as he fights back from Barrett's early assault. He manages to get an armlock applied over the top rope, but Barrett retaliates by knocking him down to the floor. Barrett unloads with knees and kicks to the head before rolling Del Rio back in for a two count. The World Heavyweight Champion slowly gains the upper hand, though he misses a corner charge and eats a back kick. Del Rio wins an exchange of reversals and locks in the cross armbreaker, and Barrett taps out.
We're not quite done with Swagger and Colter yet. They've got another video lecturing all of us on the perils of political correctness. Then it's time for more Old School goodness as the New Age Outlaws hit the ring. Man, Billy's hairline... Anyway, if you're not down with them, they've got two words for you.
Match 9 � New Age Outlaws vs. Primo and Epico
These guys aren't so old that they can't wrestle, and most of their moves weren't dependant on high levels of athleticism anyway. Billy finishes things off with a Fame-Ass-Er, and the Outlaws ride again, if only for one night.
Mean Gene Okerlund and the majority of the locker room have assembled on stage. There's a birthday cake out there, and it's for Mae Young's 90th birthday. Naturally, Punk decides to make his ring entrance for the main event, robbing Young of anything more than a momentary spotlight.
Match 10 � CM Punk vs. Big Show vs. Randy Orton vs. Sheamus
Punk decides that discretion is the better art of valor, hiding on the outside and only entering the fray when he thinks me may be able to steal a pinfall. Orton and Sheamus finally catch up to him and send him flying to the floor. Wait, that's the old Brer Rabbit trick guys! Time for a commercial break. Punk is in some trouble as we rejoin the action, scrambling to escape pinfall attempts from Orton and Sheamus. He also has to hurry to stop Show from pinning Sheamus, but he ends up eating a KO punch in return. Sheamus and Big Show do battle, but the Great White can't get the even bigger man up off the mat. He does manage to roll away when Show tries coming off the middle rope, and his second attempt at White Noise succeeds. Big Show kicks out at two. Orton sneaks back in to hit a power slam that gets a near fall on Sheamus. Show dishes out choke slams and tries pinning Sheamus, but he beats the count. Another KO punch is loaded, but Sheamus dodges and strikes with a Brogue Kick. Orton hurries to hit an RKO on Sheamus, but Punk returns and kicks Randy in the head. The GTS is on target, and Punk makes the pin to go on to face Undertaker at WrestleMania. Speaking of the Phenom, he makes a typically dramatic entrance so he and Punk can stare each other down. See you in seven!
In terms of the SLAM! Wrestling staff, Nick Tylwalk is Old School, getting his start way back in the late '90s. Yes, there were internet sites back then. Trade stories with him about the old days on Twitter, on Google+ or by email.

Nokia is one of those brands that has a dedicated fan base. Look no further than this 'unboxing' video of the Lumia 920 from filmmakers International House of Badman. It's a tongue-in-cheek video that puts most other unboxing videos to shame for its sheer production value.
Quick, somebody call the Academy, this video needs some recognition. I'm having a hard time deciding what I liked best between the strip club lounge, gorilla, or girl on bike scene. What about you?

As women, we can add more renewal to our holiday season with less action and a few more in-breaths.
Holiday stress seems about as traditional these days as cookie exchanges and tree trimming. Women in particular tend to have full plates all year, but especially during this end-of-year rush.
At Omega's 2013 Women & Power Conference, Joan Halifax Roshi discussed the duality of our lives and the importance of down time, "You could say that every bird has two wings: one of those wings is the wing of contemplation, and the other wing is the wing of action. Both of those wings make it possible for us to move, fly, and be in the world."
For many women, we live in a world of action—whether it's at work, at home, or even with friends. But if we think of the image of the bird, we can't fly with just one wing. Most of us need to make time for more mindfulness or contemplation.
Joan explained, "I deeply value the time in my day when I meditate, and when I take a backward step and go into deep solitude at my hermitage in the mountains. These are times of renewal for me, where I have a chance to integrate the social and environmental transformation work that I do in the outer world. If I was just driving straight on as a social activist, without ever taking an inhale, I don't think I would still be alive. There is the in-breath and there is the out-breath, and too often we feel like we have to exhale all the time. The inhale is absolutely essential—and then you can exhale."
Women & Power Conference presenter Brené Brown agreed. She declared herself a notorious breath holder.
In her research, Brené has found that we can't give to people what we don't already have, so many women end up feeling resentful even when they are trying to give.
"I can't give love and kindness to my kids or to the world or the earth if I can't give love and kindness to myself," she said.
Instead of getting swept up in the holiday madness, make an effort to give to yourself. Try these four ways to take more in-breaths. You might be surprised to see how you can create space to truly enjoy this time of year.
1. Keep Up Your Routines
It's so easy to get off track during the holiday season. One way to be sure you take care of yourself is to double your efforts. Schedule one extra workout a week. Find a "turkey trot or a New Year's Eve 5K and make it a goal to train for a few weeks beforehand. Don't skimp out on your therapy sessions, 12-Step meetings, or yoga classes. In fact, book an extra holiday session or two, if you can.
2. Schedule Cozy Time
Schedule some slow quiet space in your holiday schedule. Take an afternoon to brew some hot chocolate, put on your favorite pair of fuzzy socks, and read a book. Take some time to organize the year's photos while you listen to jazz. Make a bowl of popcorn and watch an old black-and-white movie with your partner or a good friend.
3. Pamper Yourself
Tell everyone that all you want for the holidays is a spa day or spa-inspired gifts. Take an afternoon off and get a massage. If you can't afford a spa treatment, slice some cucumbers and place them on your eyes for a few minutes at home. Then, light some candles and take a bubble bath.
4. Serve Someone
In this season of giving, you might find your deepest joy comes from helping someone else. Being of service does not mean you have to donate large sums of money or time. Maybe you're at a party and can see the host is overwhelmed. Offer to stay a little late and help clean up. Or, invite someone who is far from their family to your house for a holiday celebration.

Our Water Damage Carpet Restoration Process
In addition to flood damaged carpets, we also restore carpets that are damaged from washing machine overflow, hot water system leakage, tap water overflow, a burst pipe, sewage overflow, or any other reason. We not just dry the carpets but also clean them thoroughly eliminating all kinds of bacteria, virus, mould, pollutants, and other contaminants even from the deepest fabrics of the carpet.
Our carpet water damage restoration process involves the following:
- Inspection & Cleaning
Our technicians will visit the site and start determining the quantum of the damage by using appropriate tools. With the help of infrared cameras and moisture level meters, they will identify even hidden water in the walls and floors to evaluate moisture damage. They will also segregate the items that are salvageable and remove the carpet if it has to be dried separately. Otherwise, they will clean the carpet at the site itself. Most importantly, they will work immediately to remove all moisture in least possible time period.
- Re installation of Carpet
Once cleaning is done, our cleaners will start cleaning the carpet by using methods of deodorization and disinfection. They ensure perfect cleaning and give a new life to the damaged carpets. After a complete dry-check, they will reinstall the carpet once they have checked that there is no leakage in the floor areas and side walls. They will also clean the floor before re-installing the carpet.
Our aim is to remove water and get rid of contaminants from the water damaged carpets. We not just clean the carpets but make them absolutely hygienic and healthy again!

Virginia Man Runs Over Himself, Gets Arrested (Video)
In the world of instant CARma, it's gonna be hard to beat this video.
Fairfax County police posted dashboard camera footage of a man who was so busy trying to get away from authorities that he forgot to put his vehicle in park when he tried to bail out of the car to run.
In the dashcam video posted to Facebook, Isaac Bonsu can be seen bailing out of his vehicle on an Alexandria residential street. However, Bonsu failed to put the car into park, or pull the emergency brake before getting out, allowing the car to keep its momentum - something Bonsu discovered as the vehicle struck him.
The Fairfax County Police Deparment posted the video to its Facebook page commenting:
"Our officers tried to pull a man over. He sped off, then got out of his car to escape, but forgot to put it in park. Oops. He got hit by his own car. He's okay physically, but is charged with DWI – 3rd offense, and a long list of other charges. #FCPDStrangerCalls"
The northern Virginia man wasn't harmed, and immediately got up to keep running, but police soon caught up with him after a brief foot chase.
Charges against Bonsu include: driving while intoxicated (his third offense according to police), and illegal window tint. The 30-year-old was initially pulled over for an apparent equipment violation.
Court records don't reflect whether or not Bonsu has hired an attorney yet.

~Bella tells Charlie that she got accepted to Dartmouth~
disclaimer- I am not Stephenie Meyer...plain and simple
1. Dartmouth
Rating 5/5 Word Count 1628 Review this Chapter
I looked down at the big envelope, hidden in my sock drawer.
The letter was an acceptance letter to Dartmouth. I don't know what Edward had done to get all of these applications so late, or how I have gotten accepted to most of them. This was the one college I was sure to not get in…turns out I was wrong.
If Charlie had seen this, he would have opened it again like my last few acceptance letters. And if he had seen this particular one, he would have had a heart attack-mostly from the payment we would have had to make.
Edward had said that it was not an issue, which I shouldn't even worry about it- that he would pay for it. But I could never let him do that, the Cullen's have already done so much for me already. Edward had already decided on plan B, to go to college, for the moment and he really wanted me to do this with him. I tried again and again to tell him that there would be an eternity to have that kind of human experience, even if I wasn't human…but of course Edward was still stubborn.
I sighed again, looking down at the letter- I had to do it. I had to do this sooner or later; there was nothing I could do about it. With one huge breath of air, I picked up the letter from Dartmouth out of my drawer.
I opened my bed room door and made my way down the stairs nervously, the letter clutched in my hand.
As I approached I could hear the football game on TV at almost full blast, Charlie's head was turned towards it. I hid the letter behind my back. "Hey Dad?" I asked him, trying to get his attention. I sat down on the couch next to his chair.
His head turned towards me slightly, "Yeah, Bells?" he asked me.
I left the letter propped up between the couch and my back, so that it was still out of sight, and my hands were free.
I looked down at my feet, "A new letter came for me today." I informed him, taking it slow.
"Oh, from whom?" he asked me, still watching the foot ball game out of the corner of his eye.
Luckily a commercial had come on T.V, "er...Dartmouth." I said, cringing at the word.
He froze, but turned his head towards me, showing me that I had now finally gotten his full attention.
"And what did the letter say?" he asked me slowly.
"Well…er…I haven't exactly opened it yet. Edward said it looked like his though." I explained.
"Where is it?" he asked me, excited as I reached behind my back to get the letter. I handed the letter to him, not wanting to open it at all; already knowing that it was going to say I was accepted-it was not a small envelope.
He snatched it from my hand eagerly, ripping the top off with his finger to get it open. He pulled out a bunch of glossy brochures authentic paperwork, to finally reach a piece of white paper, the letter.
"Dear Ms. Swan, we are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to Dartmouth College starting this semester." I didn't look surprised-and as soon as he said it I groaned-that letter made it unfortunately official. I unwillingly looked back up at Charlie.
"You got accepted Bella! I always knew you could do it! Wow-Dartmouth! My Bella!" he exclaimed, practically shouting. I was tempted to shush him-I didn't want the whole city of Forks to hear him.
Charlie stood up from his chair, a huge smile on his face.
"Yeah. Dartmouth." I let out a shaky laugh; it wasn't very convincing in my eyes. But Charlie seemed to believe it. I stood up too as he came over and quickly hugged me. Hugs were a little out of place here, awkward and different. But Charlie didn't even seem to notice that.
"I always knew you could do it," he repeated, "I'm so proud of you!" he said taking a step back.
"Gee, thanks Dad." I smiled. It was funny; I had never seen him like this. He looked even more excited than I was.
"I have to tell everyone! Newton's son getting into Washington University-HA," he scoffed, "wait till he hears that my daughter got accepted to Dartmouth! An IVY LEAGE school!" he muttered to himself, laughing under his breath as he went to the kitchen. I rolled my eyes, just great; he had to tell everyone???
"Well, Dad-I'm going to bed." I announced to the kitchen as I walked towards the stairs.
"Okay, Bells. Sleep well!" he sounded almost giddy with satisfaction. I shook my head as I got to my bedroom door, stepped in my room, and closed the door with a click.
Edward was lounging on my bed, a smile on his lips.
"You told Charlie." He stated, still smiling.
"Yes." I grumbled, sitting down next to him. He moved over, opening his arms to me. I accepted his invitation and laid my head on his cold chest. He played with my hair as he spoke.
"I must say, he took it quite well." Edward chuckled.
"What is he thinking?" I asked him, because Edward was now laughing.
"Oh, I hate to tell you this-I really do. But his thoughts are so hilarious! I think by tomorrow the whole state of Washington will hear of your acceptance by Charlie's bragging." He laughed.
I winced, "I knew he would be this bad." Why in the world did I tell him then?
"It was inevitable. Bella." Edward reminded me, now only a controlled smile was on his face.
"Just wait till he remembers the acceptance fee." I grumbled, smirking.
"That's not any issue." Edward reminded me. I shook my head, a small growl escaped me.
He raised an eyebrow as I looked up at him, "We have been through this before, Bella. Nothing is going to be changed. And besides, it's not the fee that will be bringing the bragging to a halt." He said, "It's the fact that I have gotten accepted too." He said to me simply.
"I suppose you're right." I admitted. He looked please, but I quickly added, "About the fact that the bragging will stop with you getting accepted to Dartmouth too-not the fee part."
He matched my tiny growl, but his eyes stayed light, so I childishly stuck out my tongue at him. He laughed, and I laughed too. I knew for a fact that I wouldn't be going to Dartmouth anyways…so what was the point in arguing about the fee?
"Good morning, my angel." Edward whispered in my ear.
"Your wake up calls are a lot better than my alarm clock, I must say." I smiled, sitting up. It still surprised me that a night could pass by so soundly and dreamlessly, and that I could wake up with Edward by my side.
"Oh, well that makes me feel so much better." He joked.
I peered out of my window, looking at the almost empty driveway, "Do you think Charlie has told everyone yet?" I asked him. I had visions of Charlie telling people on his radio, at the police station from his car, or him walking into the police station and announcing it to everybody. My stomach suddenly felt uneasy.
"He has had a while now, so perhaps." Edward's mouth was twitching at the sides, fighting a smile. I looked disapprovingly at him.
A half hour later we were pulling up to the high school, parking next to Mike Newton's car. Alice was sitting in the back of the Volvo.
She got out and was already walking towards her first class as I was just getting out. "Good luck today, Bella." She called, winking at Edward once. Then she walked away.
"Alice! What did you see?" I stomped my foot on the ground.
She turned around, "In time you'll see it too." And with that she continued to walk away from me. I frowned. That was helpful.
"What does she mean?" I asked Edward.
"That you'll find out soon enough." He smiled too, walking me to our first class.
As the day progressed I had finally understood what Edward and Alice were keeping from me this morning.
"Congratulations on getting into Dartmouth!" I heard Mike say to me as I walked down the hall.
"Uh…Thanks. Where did you happen to hear that?" I asked him curiously.
"My dad, I think he heard it from your dad, though." He answered, shrugging as we walked together towards the door out of school. Edward walked on the other side of me, almost defensively.
"Oh."I grumbled.
"I hope that answered your question-the news has been all over school though, too." He said, getting into his car as Edward and I did the same with Edward's Volvo.
"Oh, trust me, Mike. You said enough." I smiled grimly as I closed the door and Edward began to pull out of the parking lot. Mike really wasn't the first to say congratulations, just the first that I asked where he heard it from. In fact, there were a lot of people that said something about Dartmouth to me today. Which was basically, if you counted, most of my senior class.
"He is dead. Completely dead. He told the whole town!" I stamped my foot on the floor of the Volvo. My hands balled into fists, smacking the dashboard.
"Bella, I know you are upset-but don't take it out on the car or yourself, please." He complained. I rolled my eyes. "Love, Charlie is just proud. And at the most this will last a week." He took my hand and kissed it.
"A week?" I exclaimed. One day was enough to last a lifetime.
Edward just sighed. "I never said I was going to Dartmouth anyways." I grumbled.
Edward raised his eyebrows. I smirked at him. Would this argument ever end? All I knew was that Charlie was in for a rough night.

North Korea confirms it's holding American citizen, State Dept. says
WASHINGTON -- North Korean authorities have confirmed they have detained an American citizen, the State Department said Friday, while the wife of the 85-year-old Korean War veteran being held there implored authorities to let her husband return to his "anxious, concerned family."
North Korea told the Swedish Embassy in Pyongyang about the detention and said it hasn't granted diplomats access to the person who was not named, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki told reporters.
The Swedish Embassy is negotiating on behalf of Merrill Newman because the U.S. has no diplomatic ties to North Korea.
In California, Newman's wife, Lee Newman, said in a prepared statement, "The family feels there has been some dreadful misunderstanding leading to his detention.
Her husband was set to end a 10 day tour of North Korea on Oct. 26. But just before he was slated to fly out, he was escorted from his flight by a North Korean official.
"We have had no word on the state of his health, whether or not the medications sent to him through the Swedish Embassy in North Korea have been delivered or why he was detained," she said.
Newman doesn't fit the pattern of other Americans detained by North Korea in recent years.
By all accounts, he wasn't a missionary or a journalist. He had no apparent political or religious agenda for the government of Kim Jong Un. Instead, he visited North Korea as a curious tourist, according to his son, eager to reconnect with a country where he'd served as an infantryman during the Korean War, six decades ago.
The mystery, then, about why Pyongyang has held him for a month has baffled Newman's friends and family - as well as analysts who study North Korea.
"We're concerned about him," said Barbara Ingram, a neighbor n the Channing House retirement community, an 11-story apartment house where the Newmans live.
"I find this pretty weird," Robert Kelly, a political scientist at Pusan National University in South Korea who has traveled as a tourist to North Korea, said of Newman's detention. "I don't see any of the usual signs - such as missionary activity or overt law-breaking - that lead to detention."
Whatever the reasons behind the detention, it could hurt impoverished Pyongyang's efforts to encourage a growing tourism trade seen as a rare source of much-needed foreign currency. "This obviously jeopardizes North Korea's long, painstaking effort to build a tourism industry," Kelly said in an email.
Tourism is picking up in North Korea, despite strong warnings from the U.S. State Department, most recently this week, about the risk of arbitrary detention. Americans travel there each year, many as part of humanitarian efforts or to find long-lost relatives or to see a closed society few outsiders get to visit.
Newman has been described as an inveterate traveler and long-retired finance executive. His son, Jeffrey Newman, said his father wanted to return to the country where he spent three years during the Korean War.
North Korea has detained at least six Americans since 2009, including two journalists accused of trespassing and several Americans, some of whom are of Korean ancestry, accused of spreading Christianity.
Kenneth Bae, a Korean-American missionary and tour operator, has been detained for more than a year. North Korea sees missionary work as a Western threat to its authoritarian government.
It's possible that North Korea could try to use Newman as a diplomatic pawn in an interminable nuclear standoff with Washington - something analysts say Pyongyang has done previously with detained Americans. Several of them were only released after high-profile visits to Pyongyang by prominent Americans, including former Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton.
While detaining a tourist is rare, said Yoo Ho-Yeol, a professor of North Korea studies at Korea University in Seoul, Newman's background as a war veteran, while probably not the main reason for his detention, may be a good way for Pyongyang to indirectly pressure Washington to resume long-stalled nuclear disarmament-for-aid talks and other issues.
"He's someone who the U.S. government would pay great attention to," Yoo said.
Pyongyang has called for a resumption of those nuclear talks, which have been stalled since 2008, but insists it must be recognized as a nuclear power. Washington balks at that and says talks won't happen until North Korea first shows signs it will abide by past nuclear disarmament commitments.
Another U.S. veteran of the Korean War, also named Merrill Newman was awarded the Silver Star in 1952 for leading his Marine platoon in a series of attacks that inflicted heavy casualties on North Korean troops and for taking effective defensive actions during a massive counter-attack, according to the Military Times.
But Jeffrey Newman has told reporters that there's no indication North Korean authorities have confused his father with the other Merrill Newman, who is now 84 and lives in Oregon.
"I have no idea why this guy was detained and whether they had Googled - liked anybody else can - the name and found me and thought this guy was me or whatever," said the Beaverton, Oregon-based Merrill Newman.
Korean War veteran Thomas Hudner, a retired Navy captain and Medal of Honor winner, went to North Korea in July to fulfill a promise he said he made 60 years ago to recover the remains of a pilot who was trapped in his downed fighter jet. While in North Korea, Hudner "didn't mention the war at all" and said he had no complaints about how he was treated.
Still, the Korean War service of American tourists in North Korea could be sensitive. That conflict ended in an armistice, not a peace treaty, leaving the Korean Peninsula still technically at war - something Pyongyang's propaganda frequently raises in criticism that Washington and Seoul seek to bring down its government.
Kim Dong-jil, a South Korean professor who is deputy director of Peking University's Center for Korean Peninsular Studies, said a low profile by the U.S. government and media could lead to Newman's quick release.
"The North Korean authorities know it would do no good to detain an elderly man for a long time because of human rights concerns," he said.
