As we told you here, five days after the American Civil Liberties Union filed a petition in March against the federal government for locking up Jose Antonio Franco in a Santa Ana detention facility, officials released the mentally retarded immigrant who had been living in Costa Mesa.
But if you thought that was the end of the case, think again: the ACLU has now filed suit againt the feds on behalf of Franco and others to ensure those so mentally incompetent to understand the proceedings against them are not unfairly pushed through the system and dumped at the border.
An ACLU statement follows after the jump . . .
ACLU/SC & Partners File First Class-Action Lawsuit on Behalf of Immigrants with Mental Disabilities
LOS ANGELES – The nation's first class action lawsuit on behalf of immigrant detainees with severe mental disabilities – detainees who are left defenseless in a system they cannot comprehend — was filed late Monday by a coalition of legal organizations led by the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California, Public Counsel, and Sullivan & Cromwell LLP.
The suit asks a federal district court here to order the U.S. government to create a system for determining which non-citizens lack the mental competence to represent themselves and to appoint legal representation for those who are unable to defend themselves. Unlike the criminal court system – where appointed counsel is part of due process — immigration courts and detention facilities have no safeguards for ensuring that the rights of people with serious mental disabilities are protected. Two plaintiffs in the suit were the subject of habeas petitions before federal courts in California last March.
"Our Constitution and our laws demand fair treatment for people with severe mental disabilities," said Ahilan Arulanantham, director of immigrants' rights and national security for the ACLU/SC. "If someone cannot undertstand the proceedings against them, due process requires that they be given a lawyer to help them."
Others participating in the suit include the American Civil Liberties Union's Immigrants' Rights Project, the ACLU of San Diego & Imperial County, Northwest Immigrant Rights Project, and Mental Health Advocacy Services.
The six immigrants represented are from California and Washington, and all have been diagnosed with severe mental disabilities, such as schizophrenia and mental retardation. Several have been found incompetent to stand trial in other court proceedings.
One of them, Jose Antonio Franco-Gonzalez, was lost in detention facilities in California for nearly five years because of the government's failure to account for his mental retardation. Another detainee named in the lawsuit, Ever Francisco Martinez-Rivas, is a 31-year-old lawful permanent resident who came to the U.S. at the age of nine. He has been diagnosed with schizophrenia so severe that he gets confused when given simple directions, and has been deemed "a gravely disabled person." Despite this, the government intends to deport Mr. Martinez without giving him a lawyer and without having his mental state evaluated. .
"This broken system unjustly ruins the lives of detainees and their families. Our country's values demand that we provide fair treatment for detained immigrants with serious mental disabilities," said Talia Inlender, staff attorney with Los Angeles-based Public Counsel.
The exact number of detainees with severe mental disabilities is unclear, but some reports estimate that at least two to five percent of the immigrants detained by immigration authorities nationwide – or 7,000 to 19,000 individuals – might have a serious mental disability.
"The problem worsens day by day as the detention centers swell with more detainees," said Michael Steinberg, a partner of Sullivan & Cromwell. "Ignoring the needs of those suffering from mental illnesses only debases our system of justice."
The widespread failure of the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Justice to implement such a system and provide court-appointed attorneys to those with serious disabilities was recently documented in a report jointly published by the ACLU and Human Rights Watch.

NOT worth it!!
I loved this phone when I first got it. Everyone that seen in thought it was a great phone. But a few months after I got it the charger messed up. I'd have to wiggle the cord just to get it to charge. Then one day the ear piece stopped working & I could only use it on speaker. My sister's boyfriend had this phone also & I warned him about it & like a month later his messed up too. I tried to take it back to Cricket but my mother put a crack in the screen after it messed up & they wouldn't do anything about it cause the crack voided the warranty. I ended up buying an even worse phone off of eBay (Motorola V265...DON'T BUY!!!) I think I'll try the Kyocera Lingo & see if they've improved any. Overall this phone isn't worth the time or money it takes dealing with its problems!!!

This phone has software problems.
The Slider Sonic (KX5B) phone supported by Virgin Mobile should not be offered on the market today. Technical support line reps from Kyocera (the manufacturer of the Slider Sonic), indicate that this is a phone that has recently (summer 2007) developed software problems thus preventing it from functioning as a video recorder or MP3. The root of the problem is software installed on each phone by Virgin Mobile. To date, the software versions JC10008 and RQ10122 and DJ1.0.04 are problematic; and phones having any of these software versions will cause the phone to malfunction. These software issues are unresolved as of this writing (October 28, 2007).
Customer support staff for the Virgin Mobile for the Slider Sonic are not adequately knowledgeable of the product making careless erroneous statements for which they only grudging hold themselves accountable. Information they provide on memory cards has been incorrect, advice on phone- error messages such as âincorrect card typeâ have been incomplete as there is no acknowledgment that the current software issue could be the cause of a customerâs current problem.
The phone looks good, has fair battery life, a rather small but adequate memory card, and functions well as a cell phone. In the end, the software issue eclipses many of the worthy features of this phone.

hateeeeeeee it!
this phone sickens me, lets start off with the "sliding" part! most phones spring up but this one is horrible to slide! why is it even called a slider? its really hard to slide it. not to mention the battery life, its disgusting! my front keys stopped working as well, and i go back to my us cellular store monthly to get it fixed! the screen cracks easily, becuase theres so much space between the plastic and the real phone, and i can go on forever! the phone sucks, i dont recommend it at all.

Amazing Phone
This phone is absolutely gorgeous. I have had this phone for 4 months now without issues. It has a nice, big screen and the interface is perfect. The bluetooth doesn't work the way you would expect it to, which is a huge downfall, otherwise it's awesome.
People have been talking about the memory card limitiation...there is none. I have a 2GB Micro-SD in the phone and it works perfectly. Sometimes the card gets corrupted from bad data and I have to format but I make regular backups in Vista (sometimes Vista will screw it over with an SDCard reader as well). Previously I had a 1GB card and it worked the same. Don't believe the reviews that says it will only work 512MB, because it can safely go a lot higher than that.
Great phone, loud speaker, lots of storage, nice features (32gp video, MP3 audio, etc), excellent support. Highly recommended, even by today's standards!

No speaker
I bought this phone nearly a year ago. About three months ago (June-ish) I started having problems with it. I went to answer a call and noticed that the ear piece speaker wouldn't work unless the phone was slid closed. Over the next few days this quickly progressed. Eventually I couldn't hear out of the phone no matter what, I had to stick to using my blue tooth exclusively to use my phone. It's degeneration continued even further to random keys not working. I could answer calls by hitting the soft key that said answer, but NOT the green answer key- that didn't work. Further more, I couldn't dial a number if it wasn't in my phonebook because I couldn't hit the send button. Text messaging was impossible because I couldn't hit the back key, either. These were the problems I had with my FIRST one, I called the insurance that I had put on it, and they replaced it with the same exact model phone, and just a few months later, it's doing almost the same exact thing. The buttons work perfectly right now (knock on wood) but I can't hear anything without my head set again. As of this morning, my phone won't ring anymore either so unless it's on vibrate, or my headset is actually IN my ear I don't know I'm receiving a call. I would strongly recommend you NOT purchase this phone. It's malfunction is apparently a problem with the phone, not the user.

I have the cricket version of the slider remix and i live in Hayden, Idaho. I Love my phone and i haven't had any problems with this phone and i have had it now for about 2 years. I don't really have any cons to say about this phone but many pros...it's pretty much idiot proof for the people like myself and a few people i know that want all the technology perks without reading a manual on how to work the darn thing after you finally went out and spent a couple hundred bucks you didn't have on the phone with all bells & whistles. It's also helpful that it didn't take much to teach my 8 year old how to use it. This phone is very very durable also since i have children it has had more than it's fair share of hard drops or even sometimes throws onto the concrete and still working, so thankfully i never needed to use my protection plan insurance to replace it after my 3 year old has had a fit and chucked it, thnank god cause that would just have been more $ i don't have. I'm not sure what else to say but excellent product!!!!!It was well worth the price i paid. THANKS AMII

Looooove This Phone!!!!!
I really didn't want this phone at first, but i thought it was cute and different so i got it. Really happy i did!!!! I fell in love with this phone the first week. I think its stylish, fun, and durable. I like the thick heavy phones, seems like there less likely to break and easier to hold.
I love the menu wheel option, thats different and on no other phone. I Love the pictures and video. My ringtones sound very clear and loud, almost like I'm playing the CD right on my phone. I love the picture frames and the different clip art. It also has great reception.(by the way, I'm with cricket) Basically, I have been through several phones trying to find one that I am happy with. I didn't think this would be it, but i feel i made the right decision!!!
Great Phone, I love almost everything
POOR battery Life(as long as your not talking on it for 30 minutes at a time,battery last a while, but if your using it, you will need to charge it after talking for 30-45 minutes)Its the ONLY thing I don't like about the phone.

I have owned 3 of these!
I loved this phone when I first got it. For the first few months it is a great phone! The only thing about it is that it doesn't last. They start to just stop working. I have Cricket service. The phone has been replaced by them twice, once I had to pay for it through insurance. It wasn't because it had been dropped or gotten wet. They just stop. I wondered if it was just me, but I have personally spoken to 7 other people who experienced the same thing. One of the repair shops I spoke with said they knew when I called and said what was happening which phone I was going to have. They had received sooo many calls about this phone. Like I said, it starts out wonderful. They just don't last. My sister owns another Kyocera brand phone and hers is doing a lot of the same things.
Mine just freezes up, the buttons suddenly quit working, especially the ones on the outside, I will call someone from my contacts and it still calls someone completely different, it basically starts acting completely bizzare!! I wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone.

Horrible Phone
I work in the wireless industry and this phone actually looks pretty cool, but i have customers come in on a daily bases having problems with it. Either people on the other end cant hear you and it wont work at all on speaker mode, or you have to use it in speaker mode. So far any that i have sent off ( because they come with a one year manufac war.) they all come back showing water damage and none of them have water damage. So if you want this phone you can expect some problems. Other than that its a cool phone, has cam, expandable memory, etc, but there is deff a problem with the speaker.

The fairest way to set the true value of a company is through equal trading of their equity. Allowing an unlimited supply of false stock to increase the sell pressure is not equal and fair to their value. ETF managers who maintain the 401k accounts for millions of American workers and the retail investors do not have the ability to falsely drive a stock up with false money to buy with. This is allowing only the most powerful investors to use day trading techniques to falsely set prices that is contrary to the premise of a free market.
I urge you to extend the borrow requirement across the entire market. If a company is indeed over priced, the requirement to borrow shares and short them in a day or two will make no difference. The companies will still reach the same price that they deserve to be at in a free market without any losses to the short seller unless they are truly in error.

Beck promises Van Jones is just the beginning
Glenn Beck gets much of the credit for the resignation of President Obama Green Czar Van Jones. A Monday tweet from Beck indicated who Beck will go after next. Beck told his followers, "FIND EVERYTHING YOU CAN ON CASS SUNSTEIN, MARK LLOYD AND CAROL BROWNER."
The Washington Independent noted:
They are, respectively, the nominee to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, the Associate General Counsel and Chief Diversity Officer of the FCC, and the Assistant to the President for Energy and Climate Change. Browner was also administrator of the EPA for all eight years of Bill Clinton's presidency.
"I have five and I'm going to introduce you to another one tonight," Beck told Fox News' Alisyn Camerota.
"You cannot give these people any more power," said Beck. "You know, it's like Gandalf. Somebody needs to stand at that bridge and say 'you shall not pass.'"

Could this be allowed? Currently it seems border="0" get stripped.
Need help? Check out our Support site, then
img border="0" ?
border="0" is a depricated attribute for xhtml - use styles instead as they say at w3c
but style is also disabled unfortunately.
Not as a point of contention but just to note that border is in xhtml/transitional which is what is being used. In xhtml/strict it is deprecated.
Let me know what theme it is and I'll fix it in the CSS.
happens in the default theme. looks really ugly with text surrounding the image
the hspace and vspace html tags seem to work (though not always for some reason) if you want some breathing room around your images.
How do you use those exactly?
happens in all the themes, it's hideous. can we just get rid of the nasty blue border surrounding all thumbnails?
use the html mode. within the '<img scr>' link, add hspace="number of pixels" to add a margin on the left and right of the image, vspace="number of pixels" for the top and bottom. start with values of 10 or 20 between the quotes as a start.
as for the blue border, i suppose deleting any of the 'border='... references would eliminate the blue box, but i haven't attempted.
I'm using the Regulus theme and notice that while hspace and vspace show up fine in the WYSIWYG editor, they don't make their way to the page when published. Anyone know the deal?

Madoff Trustee May Have to Drop $2 Billion in Claims on UBS
The liquidator of Bernard L. Madoff's firm may have to drop about $2 billion in claims against UBS AG after telling a district court judge he will stop demanding damages from the Swiss bank, based on data from a filing by UBS.
Trustee Irving Picard sued UBS twice, seeking $2.6 billion and alleging the Zurich-based bank aided Madoff's fraud by setting up so-called feeder funds and agreeing "to look the other way" at irregularities. He told U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon in Manhattan this month he would ask UBS only to return money taken from the Ponzi scheme before its 2008 collapse. He had sought "in excess of $2 billion" based on accusations of wrongdoing, UBS said in the filing last month.
Madoff investors will get much less money if Picard drops damage claims in other cases. His lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) asks for $19 billion in damages, equal to all money lost in the fraud. A $1 billion suit against the New York Mets' owners uses common-law claims to demand the return of $700 million in principal.
"Picard may have made a tactical decision" to retreat from bigger claims, said Chip Bowles, a bankruptcy lawyer at Greenebaum Doll & McDonald PLLC in Louisville, Kentucky, who isn't involved in Madoff litigation. The U.S. Supreme Court ruling in the Anna Nicole Smith case indicated that bankruptcy courts will have smaller powers in the future, he said.
Amanda Remus, a Picard spokeswoman, said the trustee's decision to drop two common law causes of action against UBS and its affiliates "has no impact either on the strength of our case or on the amounts of recoveries and damages that the trustee's actions will seek for ultimate distribution" to Madoff customers.
Giving Up $2 Billion
After reviewing Picard's original suit against UBS, Bowles said the trustee "will get large sums of money using garden variety bankruptcy law, but he is giving up at least $2 billion based on common and state law claims."
UBS shares trading in Switzerland before U.S. markets opened rose as much as 4.4 percent to 13.91 Swiss francs after the withdrawal of Picard's claims was reported. In New York Stock Exchange composite trading, UBS rose 60 cents, or 3.7 percent, to $16.98 at 2:56 p.m.
Picard's letter to the judge wasn't filed in court. McMahon, who is reviewing the case, noted the trustee's "amendment of right" and withdrawal of common law claims in a letter to both sides' lawyers filed yesterday in court.
She asked them to clarify by July 22 what claims remain and what funds Picard is trying to recoup relying solely on "garden variety bankruptcy" principles.
1,000 Lawsuits
Picard filed 1,000 suits to recover $100 billion for Madoff investors. Instead of trying to recoup only money taken out of the bankrupt firm, he mostly demanded damages, using common law and other laws that banks say a liquidator isn't entitled to use.
HSBC Holdings Plc (HSBA) asked U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff to dismiss a $9 billion suit against the U.K. bank and so-called feeder funds, arguing that Picard went beyond his role as liquidator of the Madoff firm.
Rakoff also is considering whether the trustee had a right to use U.S. racketeering law to triple his demands in a $59 billion suit against UniCredit SpA; Bank Medici AG; its founder, Sonja Kohn; and dozens of Italian and Austrian parties.
McMahon, the judge in Picard's $19 billion suit against New York-based JPMorgan, granted UBS's request to review the case this month, saying it raises similar issues to the JPMorgan suit about whether Picard has a right to demand damages.
The case is Picard v. UBS AG (UBSN), 11-cv-04213, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).

Quick Reference
(c. 1212–70). Bigod's grandfather had been one of the barons who enforced Magna Carta on John. He succeeded his father in 1225 at the age of 12 or so, having been brought up at the Scottish court of Alexander II, whose sister he married. In 1246 he succeeded as hereditary earl marshal. He fought in campaigns in Wales and France on behalf of Henry III, but in 1258 became a leader of the baronial opposition to restrain the king. In the ensuing conflict he seems to have steered a careful course, siding with de Montfort when he was in power, but making his peace with the king after Evesham.

Clonal expansion of cytotoxic T cells: The role of the immunoproteasome in infection
Suche in Medline nach
|1. September 2006
We show how the proteasome, a protease ubiquitously present inside every cell of all organisms, may affect the dynamics of cytotoxic T cell clo! nes during an immune response. It is well documented how T cell clones interactwith antigen presenting cells via MHC class I/peptide complexes in order toget signals regulating their survival, differentiation and death. The peptides mounted on the MHC complexes are mainly generated by theproteasome. During an immune response, some proteasomes are replaced by immunoproteasomes, which are believed to process antigenic peptides more efficiently. In the present model, we investigate the homeostasis and the clonal expansion of cytotoxic T cell clones taking into account peptide processing and the effect of changes in the cellular proteasome composition. The model is based on a classical theoretical description of T cells competing for resources. It shows that the shaping of different peptide distributions by the proteasome can strongly influence the dynamics of the T cell repertoire. We found that the immunoproteasome may representa major contribution to! the selection of the appropriate T cell distribution during an immune response, enhancing possibly its effectivity by several orders of magnitude. We show that, without immunoproteasome upregulation, infections tend become chronic, and compare our findings to data of LCMV infected mice.

Analyze the values of Mary Warren in the Crucible.Please help! Thanks:)

Mary Warren has declining values. She gets caught up in the play acting. She begins to enjoy her role in the court hearings. She feels powerful in that the court is depending upon her actions to find people guilty:
Mary Warren is the Proctors' servant who seems timid and subservient but who finds a powerful role in a kind of people's jury in the courtroom.
When John Proctor puts pressure on Mary to tell the truth, she almost gives in to the pressure:
Proctor convinces her that she must expose Abigail's lies to the court, which she agrees to do.
She begins to tell the truth. Then Abigail's presence causes Mary to return to pretending. Mary is easily swayed to follow Abigail's lead. She does not stick to her values and morals. She gets caught up in the play acting. She lies in court. She accuses innocent people of dealing in witchcraft. She knows she is lying but she does not change her story. She is responsible for John Proctor's arrest:
She becomes hysterical before the court, however, and soon joins Abigail in pretending that mere is evil witchcraft at work. Her behavior in the court contributes, in part, to John Proctor's arrest.
Just a quick answer:
I would describe her values as very volatile. She is a weak character, a juxtaposition to Procter and how till the hour of his death, he refused to "sign himself to lies". (Yet it's ironic how Procter thinks of himself as within the ranks or her - "we shall slide into our pith together"!)
She is a classic example of the effect of hysteria. She will give in to anyone: first Abby, then Procter, then the court. We never really truly know what lies within her - thus, her values never come to light. Unlike characters like Procter, Elizabeth & Hale, when she went through the "crucible" she did not emerge with her strong elements. She crumbled to hysteria.
Her purpose in the play is too highlight the weak values that some of the Salemn coummunity have succumbed to, which has allowed the hysteria to proliferate.
Quite an important character, actually.

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) -- A north Mississippi couple whose son died during football practice at Mississippi will have their case tried in Oxford, where the university is located, a Hinds County judge has ruled.
Bennie and Erma Abram of Southaven allege the university didn't follow workout guidelines for players with sickle-cell trait. They say 20-year-old Bennie Abram was unaware he had the trait, which can deform red blood cells after strenuous exercise. The NCAA requires Division I schools to test players for it.
Circuit Judge Jeff Weill ruled Thursday that the wrongful death suit should be heard in Lafayette County because that's where Abram died and most of the plaintiffs are located, the Clarion-Ledger reported.
Defendants include the NCAA, the university, coach Houston Nutt, Chancellor Dan Jones, athletic director Pete Boone and Baptist Memorial Hospital-North Mississippi.
The suit contends the league failed to properly educate schools or regulate offseason practices.
The plaintiffs deny any wrongdoing.
Abram collapsed Feb. 19, 2010, during the first day of formal offseason workouts, and died at the hospital.
Attorney Chuck Mullins of Jackson has said the case should be heard in Jackson because the state College Board's headquarters are there, and that it could be hard to find a fair jury because so many Lafayette County have connections to the university.

First, that'd be a wart hog. Secondly, there was no balancing. That horn impaled the side of that pig, and all that power when he threw it up sent the horn deeper into the hogs side. If you look, you'll notice a good 3-5 inches of blood on the horn. Combine a deep puncture wound with a 15 foot trip into the sky, and you got yourself one dead wart hog.
The good news is, this should help with the bacon shortage.

The number of Washington concealed pistol licenses increased 43 percent between 2003 and 2007, Kitsap Sun reporter Josh Farley showed Sunday.
Here's a preview:
Spurred by fear of a violent attack — or because they have actually survived one — more Washingtonians are getting a concealed pistol license. The license, or CPL, allows them to travel with a hidden gun among an unknowing public. License holders jumped from about 179,000 to 258,000, 43 percent, between 2003 and 2007. The state Department of Licensing says permit applications in Kitsap County jumped from 1,587 in 2004 to 3,339 in 2007.

The Kenai Central boys soccer team still hasn't found a win at the state soccer tournament, but the Kardinals are getting warmer.
Kenai was eliminated from the state tourney Friday after a 2-1 loss to East High of Anchorage in a fourth-place semifinal at Colony High School.
The Kardinals, making their third straight appearance at the state tournament, again came up short of their stated goal to nab the program's first victory at state.
However, by giving East everything it could handle despite being hampered by injury, Kenai also showed the quantum leap the program has made in the past three years.
"I think we've put Kenai on the map as far as soccer goes," said Kenai senior Richard Alexander. "Before, nobody knew who Kenai was but now they do.
"I'm glad I was a part of that."
In the early going Friday, it was all East. The Thunderbirds used short passing to amass a huge advantage in possession against the Kardinals.
"It was nice, but it didn't amount to much," East coach Tre' Gaither said. "You can dominate possession and look good, but it doesn't matter if there are goose eggs on the scoreboard."
In the 20th minute, the Thunderbirds finally broke through. Joel Lawrence clanged a shot off the post. In the scramble for the rebound, Kenai was whistled for a foul in the penalty box.
Chris Hoke put East up 1-0 by converting the penalty kick. Hoke put the ball on the ground to the right of Kenai keeper Eric Nyce. Nyce got a hand on the ball, but could not nudge it outside the goal mouth.
About that time, however, senior J.D. Pault was inserted into the game at forward. Pault is an all-region midfielder, but he hadn't seen any field time until the state tournament due to a sprained left ankle.
"I'd been resting for so long," Pault said. "I was so anxious to get in there all season. I was ready to go, and I think the team sensed that and picked up the energy."
Immediately upon entering the game, Pault began to ping-pong around the field challenging for balls with an infectious ferociousness.
"He was the difference," Kenai coach David Landry said of Pault. "He was the catalyst that got the boys fired up."
In the 24th minute, Pault started a string of deft passes that resulted in a tie score. Pault played the ball to Chris Amen on the sideline.
Amen found Carlos Carreon near the corner of the penalty area, and Carreon immediately played the ball to Alexander. Alexander glanced behind him and saw Ryan Hansen had a clear path to the goal.
Alexander dummied the ball to Hansen, and the freshman banged home a hard shot that left East's keeper with no chance.
Kenai continued to push the attack after the goal, creating several more good scoring chances.
"If we could have put one of those in before they got their second goal, obviously it would have been a different game," Landry said.
By the second half, Kenai had taken East out of its short passing game. The match became an end-to-end affair of counterattacks. However, heady sweeper Wally Ward and speedy outside defenders Marcus Webster and Cory Janson were right at home thwarting the East counterattacks.
"We probably have the fastest defense of just about anybody in the state," Landry said.
Added Webster: "Speed-wise, we had the edge. We knew they couldn't get behind us."
Having no luck generating scoring chances in the run of play, East resorted to a set play on a free kick for the matchwinner. In the 65th minute, East's Wayne Willis took a free kick from just outside the penalty area and put it right on the forehead of Patrick Sherry on the goalie's doorstep.
Nyce saved Sherry's header, but Joel Lawrence was there to nudge in the rebound with his forehead.
With five minutes left in the game, Kenai made its big push for the equalizer. Jose Arayo made the East keeper dive to save a free kick, and the ball bounced around in front of a vulnerable goal before East touched it out for a corner kick.
On that corner kick, Pault found Ward for a sound header, but an East defender pushed the effort just wide. East then cleared the ensuing corner kick.
"I thought for sure one of those two corner kicks was going in," Pault said.
Even though the Kardinals didn't get that first win at state, Landry said seniors Carreon, Alexander, Ward, Pault, Webster and Nyce had done plenty for the program.
"Those six guys are a big reason we made it to state three straight years and had three straight top-three finishes in the region," Landry said.

There was a geocoin in the cache that was stolen, what do I need to do about that? Perhaps the muggles that took it will put it back after they steal everything out of it. That would be nice.
If you know which coin was in the cache you can log onto that site and tell the owner the cache has been muggled and the coinwill not be coming home.....otherwise keep your fingers crossed but more than likely, it is gone.....sorry and try again.
I wonder how many caches have been swiped. I've noticed a few in the Benton area have come up missing. I've also wondered how safe some of the caches I have found are. Cause if I found it, it's prolly not hidden very well.
I am sorry that there are people out there who have been taught not to care about anyone else but themselves. It's a sad state of affairs. Is there anyone else out there who remembers when your parents didn't feel the need to lock their doors when they left the house?
We had a key hanging on a hook in plain view. Dad said it really wasn't a big deal, he never locked the door anyway.

Staying Hydrated - Channeling My Inner Mixtress
One thing for sure is this: we have to drink lots of water (whether we like it or not). I'll be the first one to admit that drinking a lot of water is a challenge for me. A cold glass of water on a hot summer day really hits the spot, but to continue to drink it over and over again...well, that's the problem.
I've seen lots of wonderful spa waters on Pinterest that may prove to be of help to me, so I'm passing them off to you as well. Don't they look yummy?
Drinking lots of water is sure to help the skin and hair in the process.
Some time ago, I read a blog post about a girl who misted her hair and skin throughout the day. At the time I thought, "Really?" Have you seen what happens to my hair when water hits it? But now I'm seeing merit in what she said. Our hair and skin really do need water for its moisturizing properties. So here I have my own misting spray as well as a shea butter mix for hair and skin. Although I've made shea butter mixes in the past, this particular one was inspired by Naptural85's own mix. My difference: I measured my ingredients and added my own blend of essential oils.
{Moisturizing Misting Spray}
distilled water
aloe vera juice (inner fillet)
carrier oil of choice (I used jojoba oil)
essential oils (I used lavender, lemongrass, lemon, and peppermint)
spray bottle
Fill 1/3 of a spray bottle with aloe vera juice and 2/3 with water. Add 2 tablespoons of your carrier oil. Add drops of essential oil. I used 2 drops of each oil. Put top on the spray bottle, shake before using, and spray away!
Can be used on hair and skin.
{Whipped Shea Butter Mix}
4 oz. of raw unrefined shea butter (I used the white kind)
1 T unrefined coconut oil
1 T JBCO (Jamaican Black Castor Oil - I used the lavender scented one)
1 T jojoba oil
1 T olive oil
1/2 T Vitamin E oil
essential oils of your choice (I used lemongrass, lemon, and peppermint)
plastic sandwich bag
glass mixing bowl
hand mixer
jar or container to store shea mixture in (I cleaned and saved all my Shea Moisture 8 oz. moisturizer jars)
All ingredients should be room temperature. Combine all of the oils except for the essential oils in a glass mixing bowl. On a low speed, mix all of the ingredients until you reach a creamy consistency and there are no lumps. Then add the essential oils and mix in. Spoon the shea butter mixture into a clean plastic sandwich bag. Snip off the end of the bag to create a piping bag (like a cake decorator would use). Squeeze shea mixture into a clean jar or storage container. Enjoy!
Can be used for skin or hair (if your hair is the type to need oil, like mine).
I love the idea that "Less is More" and I strive to use as few products as possible to reach my personal goals. Soon I will be starting a new shampoo of sorts - it's really a hair mud. When I start using that, I will use only this misting spray and shea butter mix (if not mine, then one similar) that only use natural products. I hope it's all that my hair needs. :-)
Hope you can find some use in these recipes and DIY products.

Sunday afternoon we happened to pass by a political Wicca and incense store called Mariposa Botanica. Among the t-shirts on display right outside the door was a picture of Sarah Palin with a words "Shut up already!" in place of her mouth. That's what I call inspiration. I thought of a recent Jim Treacher post Liberals want conservatives to shut up, and conservatives want liberals to keep talking. I found it a bit amusing that a liberal created an image of a silenced Sarah Palin when so many on the left fantasize of being silenced.
Dec 2010 London protests. Because everyone is entitled to black nail polish.
Megan McCain, who is apparently in danger of being silenced due to her support for gay marriage.
And no, there is no free speech in the US or Israel. And no, Palestinian cause is not mired in anti-Semitism.
Why do people who live in societies where they feel no legal repercussions for voicing their opinions, and where their opinions happen to get a fair share of air time, imagine themselves silenced? Because they want to believe that they are wronged so that they can go ahead and do unto their opponents exact things they accuse them of doing. So that silenced Sarah Palin t-shirt is contemporary far left at a rare honest moment.
I wanted to snap a picture of the t-shirt for the blog, but by the time I got my cell phone camera ready, a matronly 60-something woman in a long skirt came running out of the door, one small step after another.
"Stop! Stop! You are stealing the image," she screamed.
I looked at her doubtfully. I thought she was onto me, but no. Evidently, she couldn't fathom anyone objecting to her politics, and wanted to intervene on behalf of the masterpiece in her custody.
"A woman artist made this t-shirt," she explained. "She makes money this way. When you take a picture of a t-shirt, you are stealing from her."
I looked at the price tug. $22.95. Being a good capitalist, I would never pay that much for a t-shirt. Not that I would buy that particular one for any price.
"What do you mean," DH countered. "Aren't you a Marxist? Property is theft, you need to share."
"Marxist? Marxist? That's not nice."
That was a bit disappointing. If you are going to be a Marxist, be a consistent one; don't discard your convictions for profit. She kept berating me in her little voice:
"This woman makes money off her t-shirts. You need to buy one. It's her property. You can't take a picture. It's like taking a camera to a museum, you can't bring a camera to a museum!"
"Actually, you can," a passerby interjected. "You can bring a camera to a museum."
True, pictures are typically permitted, but not a flash. For some reason, museums are not insecure. People will not stop paying admission if their friends are allowed a snapshot of Van Gogh. I'm sure the passerby is a liberal in good standing, but he overheard the conversation, and since he knew the right answer he had to intervene on behalf of truth. G-d bless him.
I'm amazed that the store owner was never debriefed on copyright law. Because copyright doesn't protect ideas, only their expressions, copyright applies to the exact image and words. Taking the image the store owner's girlfriend created and using it for commercial purposes is illegal. On the other hand, a generic "Shut up Palin!" t-shirt with an image of silenced former Vice Presidential candidate does not infringe on her copyright, provided that the artwork is sufficiently different. If I were to take this particular idea, I wouldn't need a photo of the garment. A picture of merchandise sold at the store for documentary purposes, on the other hand, does not infringe on the lady's copyright. Of course, the store owner can set a policy that does not allow pictures at her business, although I'm not sure if it applies to the merchandise displayed on the sidewalk.
And what about the picture of Palin used to create the t-shirt on display? Remember when career plagiarist Shepard Fairey got himself in legal hot water for stealing an AP photograph for his "Obama Hope" poster? Well, I have a sinking suspicion that the feminist behind "Shut up Sarah Palin!" traced an AP photograph, Fairey-style. Come to think of it, that store used to sell "We can do it" T-shirts with Hillary as Rosy the Riveter. That's generic. They also carry a generic Native American Homeland Security t-shirt:
DH asked the old lady what she thinks about free speech, but she kept talking about her girlfriend's income. More thorough Marxists reject copyright because in their opinion it's theft and it stifles speech.
Anyhow, although I didn't get the "Shut up Palin!" image, I did get a bigger and better post out of this incident.

Ghana captain Gyan congratulates colleagues over Cape Verde win
Ghana Captain Asamoah Gyan has commended his colleagues on their 1-0 triumph over Cape Verde in an international friendly.
"I must commend the technical team and the playing body for raising the flag of Ghana high. I am indeed proud of you, well done and let's keep up the spirit,†Gyan said in a statement.
Mubarak Wakaso scored the only goal of the match as the Ghanaians posted the narrow win over the Black Sharks at the Lisbon University stadium on Wednesday.
Gyan was excused from the game due to the untimely death of his mother Cecilia Love Mensah Gyan.
Meanwhile, the Al-Ain striker has expressed sincere gratitude to all and sundry who in diverse ways have supported him and his family during their time of bereavement, especially during his mother's one-week celebration.
"I wish to thank all who supported the Gyan family during our trying moments, I on behalf of  my  family say we are  indeed grateful for your support,†the release added.

Skip to comments.The "Best Revenge" and the Worst Economies
Posted on 11/05/2012 6:00:22 AM PST by Kaslin
Its game on for the politics of retaliation.
While campaigning in the swing state of Ohio, President Obamas supporters began to boo last Friday when he uttered the name Mitt Romney.
No, no, no, the President shouted, dont boo. Vote. Voting is the best revenge
Those who support the Presidents re-election are to seek revenge on others. Thats quite a directive from the President of the United States, and it is quite a departure from the candidate of four years ago who promised to unite all Americans in the pursuit of higher purposes.
But it is nonetheless an example of that for which President Obama has become known -turning American against American. Its more than an our campaign versus theirs remark. The implied message is that I will be made to feel better, if you are sufficiently maligned and impugned.
In particular it is meant to convey that if my government punishes you by taking away more of your money, then my life will somehow become more wonderful. It is a false premise that has emanated throughout Mr. Obamas campaign for re-election and throughout his nearly four years of policies as well.
Reaction this weekend to the Presidents revenge admonition was eerily similar to that which followed his famous you didnt build that vitriol aimed at business owners last spring. Romney and Ryan made it a talking point from the stump, while the Presidents surrogates went in to the usual he was taken out of context and what he really meant was explanations.
But consider how the Presidents propensity for revenge on certain categories of Americans is at the epicenter of his economic ideas and rhetoric. Even back four years ago when he was promising to bring us all together, candidate Obama nonetheless consistently expressed disdain - and yes, an attitude of revenge towards successful business enterprises.
Speaking to a stadium full of adoring followers in August of that year, then-Senator Obama went-off with a tirade about how American oil companies were making too much money! As the crowd cheered him on, he said, in part:
Youve got oil companies making record profits no no companies in history have made the kind of profits the oil companies are makin right now they..they .one company, Exxon Mobil, made eleven billion dollars billion, with a b .last quarter .they made eleven billion dollars the quarter before that makin money hand-over-fist makin out like bandits
From there, Senator Obama went on to introduce his new energy policy. He wanted to raise taxes on oil companies (because, obviously, it is unfair if a company is too profitable), and use that extra tax revenue to give working Americans a thousand-dollar voucher that they could use to make gasoline purchases.
Senator Obama made no mention of the untold numbers of shareholders who invest their money in oil companies, nor any reference to the men and women who invest their talents and efforts into oil companies. And he certainly made no reference to fact that that oil companies actually provide us all with an essential product. No, Barack Obama is not given to such essential truths. Americans in 2008 were feeling fearful about the economy, and oil companies were enjoying success all at the same time it was an opportunity to gin-up the desire for revenge that couldnt be ignored.
Fast-forward to 2011. After signing landmark bills that sought reforms (read revenge) on banks, credit card companies, and of course- health care providers, President Obama was feeling the heat over an economy that was still was not producing the much-needed job growth that had been promised. And while much of the business community had at that point refrained from admitting that we had a problem in Washington, DC, Las Vegas-based hotelier Steve Wynn finally broke the silence.
In July of that year, Wynn stated on a corporate conference call with his Wynn Resorts corporation what millions of us knew in our hearts.: This administration is the greatest wet blanket to business, and progress and job creation in my lifetime my customers are frightened of this administration Everybody complains about how much money is on the side in America those of us who have business opportunities and the capital to do it are going to sit in fear of the President. And a lot of people don't want to say that. They'll say, God, don't be attacking Obama. Well, this is Obama's deal and it's Obama that's responsible for this fear in America
After acknowledging the Obama-driven fear among Americas entrepreneurs and investors, Wynn further states that the guy (President Obama) keeps making speeches about redistribution and maybe we ought to do something to businesses that don't invest, theyre holding too much money. We haven't heard that kind of talk except from pure socialists. Everybody's afraid of the government and there's no need soft peddling it It is the truth. And that's true of Democratic businessman and Republican businessman, and I am a Democratic businessman And I'm telling you that the business community in this country is frightened to death of the weird political philosophy of the President of the United States until he's gone, everybody's going to be sitting on their thumbs
And here we are, two days away from another election. Those with the means of investing and growing the economy are indeed on the sidelines, shielding themselves from the Presidents revenge, and we all are suffering as a consequence.
I will move about 10% of my portfolio into our out of the U.S. based on the election. Capital flight is real.
America WILL NOT HAVE JOBS in a second 0bama administration. Nobody will invest in a company here to expand it and hire people. That's just nuts!
Just a "community organizer" doing what he does best - rub raw the perceived grievances of those he's trying to "organize". Agitate to the point of action, usually to the point of violence.
And just who is he referring to as the object of said revenge?

Halo 4 Review
Pages PREV 1 2 3 4 5 NEXT
Just one quick question. How casual are you? Seriously, how many times did you die when you needed 10 hours to finish that campaign? 7 hours on the hardest difficulty and if you proceed really slowly.
I never said it took me 10, merely stating that your average player will likely finish it around that time, give or take a few hours depending on how much you like to listen to audio logs, track down unlocks or simply speed through it.
Since the game isn't out yet, you are either A: clutching at straws, B you're admitting to pirating a leaked copy and have actually played the game, which is against site rules.
Also, from what I have read on other sites, not just the Escapist, is that on normal it takes like 8-10 hours. But I guess all these reviewers are just dirty casuals...
OT: This game is getting some very good review, so I guess I'll have to get this game. If some of my friends get it I'll definitely be buying it almost at launch
Really? 10 hours for a single player game? Are the devs just not putting in any effort for games these days?
10 hours at the very max. Many people I know who got the leaked beat it in 6.
I played it, it's really nothing special. The single player plot leaves much to be desired, and while they at least tried new things with multiplayer, it deviates too much for the core "teamwork beats all" aspect of Halo.
I just looked at the score of a Machinima review because I was too busy to read and saw it got 10/10. I thought "Wow, I'm pretty sure they said that about 2 and 3, and they were shit" (well Halo 3 wasn't that bad but it wasn't as good as the first).
Music and single player not up to the standards set by previous Halo games?
It's Homefront all over again.
The story had a lot of potential. Seems like they are making a multiplayer game with single player shoe horned in. It'd have been better to split the game and have a team for both, that way you get two quality products.
Honestly, I have heard people who played it on Reddit said it's only 6 hours if you literally rush through it completely. Everyone who doesn't just play it to finish it says it takes them longer, Halo usually can be completed very fast. Hell if you wanted to you can beat Anniversary in 1 hour without any glitches.
One hour might be pushing it a little, but I ddi search around out of curiosity and I did manage to find one guy who beat Anniversary in 5 hours.
From the people I've talked to, 6-8 is the time. 6 is on the low end, and 8 is just playing through it normally.
Either way, not a fan. Huge Halo fanboy here, and I knew it'd be subpar, but I wasn't going to say it for lack of trying.
On Normal? So Legendary can take quite a bit longer. Also how does it now equal quanity = Quality? The game seems to be the same length as other Halo games, and I don't see how the length determines quality.
Don't forget that we have Spartan Ops too, they say that it's actually longer than ODST.
May I recommend some insightful reference material?
I liked this review because it is very balanced.
Great review, although I'm dissapointed that Michael Salvatori isn't making the soundtrack this time around (read, MASSIVE dissapointment), the game still looks like lots of fun, as for the story, I don't think it'll be any worse than Halo 2 (yup, that game had a campaign).
Oh you should take a glance over the comments section accompanying the EGM review. It's like feeding time at the zoo.
I can't believe it took 30 posts or so to state the bloody obvious. If your plot requires the player to go to a different medium to be properly explained then you are a bad storyteller and your game has bad storytelling.
Oh. The single player content is lacking? Then I may think twice about this game. I don't play games for multiplayer.
To be honest, after boosting myself up properly for the massive letdown that was Halo 3 and ODST.........I'm not going anywhere near this one at all.
I'm just going to stay in my little bubble and troll the shit out of my "supa-dupaHaloobsessed andtattooedfriends" for the week. Its what keeps me going through work.
Really? I would assume that people would consider the books non-canon since Bungie is kinda like, the creators of the games and their stories, while the books, I'd imagine, were just outsourced to a publishing company? I guess that's just the pitfall of having a franchise branch out into other forms of media, everyone has their own take on it.
Anyways, it's too bad that this Halo, while being regarded as a good game in it's scores, the actual content of the reviews all seem to be suggesting that it isnt quite up to standard. The biggest disappointment being that 343 didn't take any risks. I mean, this could have been a whole new world, with new enemies, allies, and lore. But it's looking like the same old Human vs. Covenant fight we've seen four times already.
How much replay value is there in this game,exactly? Could you play through the campaign at least four times without getting bored?
It's bloody odd that the writers would assume everyone who'll play this is that into Halo.
The reason I want Reach to be non-canon is because all the books rely on each other, and Halo 4 relies on the books. Nothing relies on Reach. So if Reach was made non-canon it would only affect Reach. If Reach is canon it really muddies the waters of the canon established in the books, and extends to Halo 4. Also, the version of events portrayed in Reach was crap.
Also, as for your comments about 343 taking no risks: It takes place on a whole new world. It features new enemies. It almost certainly features new allies. It features loads of new lore.
My statement was based off some reviews that I'd seen so far for it, first being:
"Moving him out into the middle of nowhere and cutting him off from his allies is an idea with huge potential. So that's why I find the storytelling side of Halo 4 to be fairly disappointing. Within the first few hours you've fought enemies that go all the way back to the first game in the franchise and you've reconnected with the human race."
And second being looking at the Escapist video review. I counted about 2 or 3 times where the Prometheans were actually shown fighting, most of it is just the Covenant.
So while yes, Halo 4 does take place on a new planet, with a new alien species, it doesn't appear to really make much use of it, simply using it all as a backdrop for another Humans vs. Covenant squabble.
Maybe i'm just reading too much between the lines, but as much as i love the Halo franchise, I can say i'm a bit skeptical about how this will be sitting with me come release.
In theory, yes. Once for normal, another to finish it on harder difficulty, co-op and then some combination of the previous 3 but with various skulls on as well.
Part of that was due to certain sections we were asked not to spoil. Overall, it sort of goes back in forth and at various times mixes the two. Hard to nail down an exact number, but I'd hazard a guess around 60-40 split in favor of the Prometheans over how often you're fighting them instead of Covenant.
Ah, i guess I can see why they wouldn't want it all spoiled. Well then I stand corrected, which i'm quite happy about as I do love me a good Halo game, and that was the big thing really worrying me about this game. Thanks for the clarification.
I love it when there are subtle (and not so subtle) novel tie-ins in my gaming.
Mass Effect 3 had a good amount of extended universe material in the core game, and you appreciate that type of stuff as a nod to the more rabid fans of the chosen franchise when it happens.
I've only just gotten onto the Halo train.... (I know.. I know, better late that never though right?) so am starting Combat Evolved Anniversary now, along with reading Fall of Reach to kick off some Halo-ism.
I love discovering looked over franchises..
What? They weren't outsourced, the books were considered full canon. Now for 343i everything is canon, all major characters aside from Palmer in Halo 4, are from the books. Since their rule is everything fit.
What? You fight the Prometheans more then the Covenant. Plus based on what I can see, this game is the start of the Second Human-Forerunner War. That's pretty big, not simply Human vs. Covenant.
Doesn't sound like I need to get this day one. I love multiplayer, but I want a well balanced single player as well. I'll wait for a Black Friday sale.
Why does Halo 4 get 4 stars out of five and Assassins Creed 3 get 5 stars and only a year ago we had revelations, I don't get it? This review gives no clarity on Halo 4 is all about and all the hard work 343i put in. I mean Halo 4 has spent nearly 3.5 years in development and AC3 1.7 its silly.
Just a question do the reviewers even clarify with each other do they know what should be a 5 or a 4 caus it seems to me they don't.
That's...That's not how reviews work. A game doesn't get points for how long its been development.
You know, reviews are subjective. Besides years in development doesn't necessarily equal quality.
See Duke Nukem Forever.
So game was made cheaper, yet sold at the same price, plus quality has gone down because of layoffs and the depression, though still sold at the same price.
Let me guess, Halo Reach servers will be discontinued quicker too, because of the depression that America is still not recovering from.
Wow, people complaining about an 8/10? Or HATE out of 10 as Jim Sterling recently put it.
So funny, after I read the review I just knew people were going be ranting against the Escapist "slamming" Halo 4 or giving it a "bad score" but even I am surprised it only took three posts.
I really want to play this game but I only play on PC as that fits my life better right now. I have beaten all of the other Halo games it is the only console first person shooter I have ever really liked.

See the $10 Keurig Coffee Brewer I Scored at Goodwill Right Out From Another Shopper
A recent article regarding an $8 video game Goodwill purchase that sold at auction for $17,500 is awesome. On a much smaller level, so was my recent find in Walla Walla while visiting my favorite pawn shop and thrift stores. I was shopping, or as I call it, "recycling," and I came across a KEURIG B31 K-cup coffee brewer for $10 at Goodwill! I have recently started drinking Keurig-brewed coffee at work and when I saw this gem for less then one-tenth the price of one new it was an easy purchase. There was a gentleman near the brewer on his cell phone acting a little odd, hunched over in a secretive pose. When I picked up the Keurig I found out he was calling for an opinion on buying it and was semi shielding it from view. He then spoke (or cussed) into his phone telling the person he was talking to that they had taken, "Too G– D— much F—— time! So forget it!" Proving the adage that "You snooze you lose."
Shopping tip: Carry around the item you are checking on if there is only one. You can always return it to the shelf if you decide not to buy it. The brewer works great and I now have what I want at home: a rich, robust cup of coffee to help me enjoy the morning.

Seattle, Washington
Qwest Field Rip-Off: unfair beer practices.
Qwest Field, home of the MLS's Seattle Sounders FC and NFL's Seattle Seahawks, sells all sorts of gameday musts: hot dogs, kettle corn and beer. They serve beer in two sizes, "small" and "large". The large costs $1.25 more than a small. Makes sense, right? But wait...how come the small and large have the same volume? That's right. The "small" and "large" hold the same volume of liquid, but you pay more for the "large". The issue is that they are charging more for the same amount of product as the smaller size. "Large" and "small" are volumetic measurements. The "large" is taller than the "small", but has the same volume. They should call it a "tall". At least that is more accurate as "tall" is a spacial measurement.
The news is spreading on Twitter, and local news affiliates are already investigating. I even filed a complaint with the Washington State Attorney Generals Office.
Just another example of the corporate rape. What a rip-off!

Veterinary questions? Ask a Vet for Answers ASAP
You're speaking with Dr. Michael Salkin. Welcome to JustAnswer. I'm currently typing up my reply. Please be patient. This may take a few minutes.
That's an interesting idea but very difficult to confirm. Each drop of 1% ivermectin contains between 0.5 - 1 mg of ivermectin. I might dose ivermectin as high as 0.6 mg/kg to a pup. A 30 kg pup would then receive 18 mg. Depending upon the number of chickens you treated and how much poop he could have ingested there's a possibility - if not very high - that he could have intoxicated himself with ivermectin. Signs of toxicosis arise within 4-12 hours of exposure and may include depression, disorientation, vocalization, ataxia ("drunken sailor"), tremors, vomiting, anorexia, recumbency, blindness, coma, seizure, and death.
I regret that my state board of veterinary examiners doesn't allow me to speak to customers by phone in this venue but other experts in this category may be able to assist you in this regard. Please let me know if you'd like another expert to do so and I'll opt out of this conversation. Please stay in the conversation if you wish.
You nailed it, Rob. A dietary indiscretion rather than ivermectin toxicity should be considered. I would fast the pup for 12 hours but leave water down unless drinking induces more vomiting at which time you should replace his water with ice cubes for him to lick. There's no reason to alter his diet when you offer him food once again.
I can't set a follow-up in this venue so please return to our conversation - even after rating - with an update at your convenience. You can bookmark this page for ease of return.

The NPC, his quest, and the interactions between himself and the two orc patients are all a reference to Nils Bejerot and "Stockholm Syndrome," the term the psychiatrist and criminologist used to describe the traumatic, emotional and sympathetic bond between Stockholm bank workers and their hostage-takers in 1973. (I apologize for the awkwardness of the previous sentence...)
Nils Beerot says: It has now been six weeks since your release. Are you ready to have the shackles removed?
Drull says: You know, when I was first captured I hated Teddy. He dug into my skin and prevented me from moving around freely. But let me tell you something, doc; after six years with the guy I can honestly say that I have feelings for him. OR What I want to know is this: WHY DO YOU CARE IF I HAVE A BALL AND CHAIN SHACKLED TO MY ANKLE!? OR I need time to think. It... it's too soon. OR Six weeks? I spent six years in Durnholde! You cannot possibly expect me to just throw aside something that has been a part of my life for so long! OR Can't you just see me for me, doc? Why does it always have to be about Teddy?
Tog'thar says: I'm with Drull, doc. Laverne and I are happy together. Why try and separate us? OR And we don't appreciate you refering [sic] to our friends as a 'ball and chain,' doc. OR Frankly, I'm getting a little tired of these therapy sessions. We're fine! Just let us go. OR I'd go back if I could. I had a life in Durnholde. Towards the end there I was beaten maybe once a week at MOST.
Nils Beerot says: My official diagnosis is that you are both idiots! IDIOTS I SAY!
Of curious note, Nils Beerot is affiliated with the Undercity faction - he even wears an Undercity cloak - but the tabard he wears is most definitely that of the Scourge. Maybe those two orcs aren't the only ones suffering from Durnholde Syndrome...
After you complete his quest, "Extinction," the following NPC text becomes available when you interact with him.
I am a psylosopher. What that means is that I am smarter than you. Now move along before I diagnose you.
The orcs themselves used to be quest objectives prior to Cataclysm (hence, "six years"). The player had to find keys to their ball-and-chains and free them from what was left of Durnholde Keep.

There's something new to go with the resident ghost at the Leagate Inn near Coningsby - two Certificate of Excellence Awards from Trip Advisor.
Management and staff are celebrating the dazzling double with one award going to the accommodation side of the business and the other to the highly acclaimed restaurant.
Manager Josh Dennison told the News: "We're absolutely delighted.
"Most places are happy with one Certificate of Excellence so to get two is brilliant."
Mr Dennison said the awards were the result of outstanding teamwork.
He added: "Everyone who works here has played a part.
"There's a great team spirit and it's good to see that hard work has been recognised by the awards - and the fact we are very busy.
"We do have high standards - both in the hotel side of the business and the restaurant."
Owners Mark and Sharon Dennison are pictured above with one of the certificates.
The Inn dates from the 16th century and boasts a number of historic features.
No doubt the resident ghost - known as Jack Cooper - will be proud of the awards.

The lights are on
How much information about Rockstar's new game can we extract from the first teaser trailer? You'd be surprised.
The trailer may not have shed light on new gameplay mechanics or who the game's protagonist will be, but the brief glimpse we got of the game gave us more than enough content with which to speculate. Here's what caught our eye.
Back To San Andreas
In Grand Theft Auto games, the cities are as much of the stars as the characters. Much like GTA IV's Liberty City captured the essence of New York City,
judging by this trailer it looks like Rockstar is bringing the same
impressive level of detail to making a city that looks and feels just
like Los Angeles. The majority of the trailer takes place in Los Santos, the first city players encountered in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Though some city districts return from the last game (including the affluent Hollywood doppleganger Vinewood), it looks like Rockstar is exploring new areas as well. The trailer introduced us to the Pleasure Pier on Vespucci beach, which looks to be a play off Venice Beach. We also saw a highway sign for Little Seoul, the GTA equivalent of Koreatown.
And The Countryside
At this juncture we have no idea if GTA V expands its setting to Los Venturas and San Fiero like San Andreas did, but we do know that there looks to be ample room to roam the countryside. The trailer showed off an impressive mountain range, a vineyard staffed by immigrant workers, and a large expanse of rolling hills littered with wind turbines and dirt roads. If the script leaks are correct, this may be where the pot evangelist grows his cannabis crops.
Flight Is Back
Many fans cried foul when Rockstar failed to include controllable planes in Grand Theft Auto IV. Judging by this trailer, they return in a big way for GTA V. Rockstar featured three aircraft in the footage – a crop duster, a charter plane, and a fighter jet that looks very similar to the Hydra VTOL in San Andreas.
Fun Vehicles
In the trailer alone, we saw a sexy convertible sports car, a jet ski, and a blimp hovering over Los Santos. Blimp killing spree? Where do I sign up?!
Rockstar's Trademark Sense of Humor
No one in video games is better at lampooning American culture than Rockstar. The signs visible in the trailer indicate that the company's sense of humor is still alive and well. A real estate development of downtown condos is called the Mile High Club, the pest control van the characters use as cover for an assault features the slogan "Putting the FU in fumigate," the postal van slogan says, "We aim not to lose it," and the police car has "Obey and survive" on the side. Rockstar even sends up the legendary In-n-Out Burger with an Up-n-Atom Burger truck.
Email the author Matt Bertz, or follow on Twitter, Google+, Facebook, and Game Informer.
I cannot wait for this game, I think they are going to make it a lot about the economy, kind of like a tribute to never forget the current recession.
I am absolutely ecstatic for this game. Sure, I didn't enjoy GTAIV as much as San Andreas but new hardware, new generation. I believe with the two expansions(and Red Dead Redemption) Rockstar shows us what they can do. GTAV will probably be flat-out amazing. The trailer alone shows us many possibilities for fun that we are accustomed to in a GTA title that felt absent in IV.
If you're wondering what the song is its Odgens' Nut Gone Flake by British band The Small Faces. Thank IGN for this info!
I'm just glad that "The Truth" is back. David Chong was funny as hell in SA, and I'm really hoping the "pot evangelist" is himn
Tattoos AND piercings!?
I cant wait for this game already :D.
Hmm very interesting.
Was hoping for a "Vice City" setting, with all the bright lights and ocean scenery, but this looks better than I thought it could!!!
Looks sweet I might just get this game when it comes out
Awesome dissection guys!
awesome.. looks interesting comming from the fact that looks like something from the most favorable GTA game/series, GTA:San Andreas so yeah.. i enjoyed that game and very multiple 'interactions' with the gaming experience which is what makes that game so classicly popular in the GTA series. yet towards GTA:V might have to prove what it really made out of..instead of it being an upgraded version of 'San Andreas.
The speed boat is called a 'Speedophile' and the Mile High Club is built by 'STD'. Teeheehee, oh Rockstar you rascals you.
Im interested in hearing more about branching characters. One of gta's hallmarks has been building up one character and watching them go from the seedy underground to the top of the food chain...i'm not sure i'd want to jump around to different characters. I think that might take away from the expirience a little.(if anyone can pull it off though, it'd be rockstar) It would be pretty cool if it had like a character custimization tool or something though...or maybe like a character choice at the beginning of the game. Whatever they do i'm sure it'll be just as mind-blowing and fun as the rest of the series! :)
glad to see it's back...i'll be getting this
Glad to hear I'm not crazy. Imagine going in the spoof Luxor and seeing a spoof Chris Angel show. How hilarious would that be! Now I know I'm wishful thinking, but GTA had Ricky Gervias (blah) and the pint sized pimp. They have to embellish the entertainment in the game. There's definitely golf and yoga, but maybe sports games, or concerts. Sky's the limit!
