Thomas is slated to begin her career with the Seminoles in the 2014-15 season, ranking as the No. 12 player in the 2014 HoopGurlz recruiting rankings as well as the No. 3-rated wing player. Earlier in her senior season at Sylacauga High School, Thomas joined select company in the state of Alabama when she crossed the 4,000-point mark in her career. She is just the sixth player in AHSAA history to reach that mark, and only the third with 2,000 rebounds.
The athletic performer with incredible leaping ability is now on a mission to lead her high school to a state championship. In Thursday's AHSAA 5A State Semifinal game against Brewer, Thomas guided her team to a 19-point comeback and poured in 40 points to reach the state championship. Thomas' 40 points were one point shy of the state tournament record of 41 recorded in 2006.
The Class 5A state championship between Sylacauga and No. 1 Wenonah will take place on Saturday at 5 p.m.
Thomas is one of 30 players recognized nationwide by the WBCA. Ten high school players were named to the WBCA High School All-America Team, while 20 more were recognized on the honorable mention All-America squad.
Nearly one month ago, Thomas was named a McDonald's All-American and became the fourth to sign with FSU directly out of high school. She will play in the renowned game featuring the best prep athletes in the nation on Wednesday, April 2, at 6 p.m. at Chicago's United Center on ESPNU.

Protected Areas: Government Effort In India To Conserve Its Forest

Posted in WikinutGuidesNatureHabitats & Ecosystems
Forests need conservation, which is a large responsibility. Various Government agencies carry out this work. Here we see some of these institutions and learn more about the forests of India.

Forests of India
In India, there are 16 major forest types and a further 221 minor subtypes(1). Other than those on the islands of Andaman and Nicobar, the main chunk of Indian forests occur in Western Ghats in South India, greater Assam region in the North Eastern India and Orissa in Northern India. The nodal agency for coordinating, promoting, overseeing and Forests and forestry practices, planning of programmes and policies regarding forests and environment is Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF)(3).
Protected areas in India
Protected areas in India include the following areas:
a) Biosphere reserves
b) Animal sanctuaries
c) Conservation and community reserves
d) Reserved and protected forests
e) Private protected areas
f) Village and panchayat forests
g) Conservation areas
h) National parks
Regarding National Parks
India has over 120 National Parks. They cover an area of 39,876 square kilometers. First among these, today called Jim Corbett National Park came into existence in 1935(2). Reserved and protected forests could fall between IV to VI categories depending on the level of protection that exists. In reserved forests, grazing, hunting or logging activities require permission, without which they cannot enter the land.
Important trees and research institutes
Main trees having commercial viability include Malabar Kino Pterocarpus marsupium, Terminalia crenulata, and Indian rosewood among others. Forest resources undertake surveys and assessments by the Forest Survey of India (FSI)(3). They give real time information regarding forest fires, forest inventories, mapping and training and access Geo portal they can interact with regularly.
Institute of Wood Science and Technology conducts training programmes in forestry research and wood sciences. They have extensive timber plants for preservation and seasoning, machinery for processing wood, modern laboratories, clonal propagation mist chamber, insect museum and Xylarium. Students and interested entrepreneurs enroll in courses under categories such as Wood Protection, Important Timbers – Field Identification and Phytochemical Analysis involving Instrumental Techniques. They study how to recreate forestland. Intriguing enchanting India is an exciting tourist destination.
History of conservation
Scientific forest management bodies undertook massive afforestation programmes between 1926 and 1947 in Uttar Pradesh and Punjab. In 1952, the Forest Policy aimed at bringing one-third of the land area under forests. The main focus of afforestation lies in these main objectives:
a) Preserving biodiversity
b) Conserving forest resources
c) Preventing soil erosion
d) Increasing economic viability of forests
e) Identifying areas where afforestation has maximum impact
f) Soil management and fertilizer application
Forests help by fixing the excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. This decreases the greenhouse effect vastly. They bind the soil especially along the coasts of seas and rivers. This length of coastline is 7517 km(5). Length of all major rivers sum up to 12,763 km(4). It is more than just mixing your vegetables with your flowers.
India is the land of the tiger. It has many species of birds and animals that are unique to the area. So also with trees and the plants that now lie within the focus of the Governmental agencies that seek to implement the policies through most economic means.

Three sisters lives are shattered upon their mother's arrest for murder and subsequent suicide. New information arises leading them down a dangerous rabbit hole of deception. Can they work together and stay alive long enough to discover the truth?
3 sisters must reconnect to uncover the dangerous truths hidden within their shared legacy of greed, shame and deception
Faultline is a dark, sexy crime/suspense series focused on the Tennant sisters whose lives are shattered when their mother's arrest for manslaughter leads her to commit suicide upon incarceration. With their world blown apart, the sisters' grief, shame and intensely personal reactions drive them to lead separate lives. Fifteen years later, Paige, a highly successful corporate attorney, stumbles across new information that appears to call into question their mother's involvement in the crime. As this discovery leads the sisters down a dangerous rabbit hole of lies and deception, can they work together to overcome the past and, most importantly, stay alive long enough to uncover the truth?
Stacie and Kirsten founded Any Road Productions in 2017 with a lofty goal: to create films where passion and purpose coexist. We are committed to producing female driven, quality entertainment. Inspiration is down any road, we intend to find it!
Celeste Buchanan (nee Tennant) is lost. She's done everything from marrying an older man with money to popping prescription pills to try and forget her past. She thought a new baby would make her marriage better and create the family that was taken from her but something is deeply wrong. Will she ever face the truth?
Jessie is the baby of the family, a wild child and a rebel. With a stalled out life and a personal motto of "the more you have, the more you have to lose", intimacy is not her forte. Letting her sisters back into her life will give Jessie the stability she craves, but if it doesn't work out, losing them again could be worse than the first time.
Paige defines herself through professional success. Her mother's arrest and suicide created an obsession for perfection leading to a meteoric rise through the ranks of corporate law. However, when a new case file begins to tie into her past, Paige needs to decide if reuniting with her estranged sisters and finding the truth is worth the risk to her career and perhaps even her life.
Paige's ex has never fully gotten over his first love, but he's definitely advanced career wise; from a beat cop to a highly regarded homicide detective. When Brennan commits to helping the sisters look into their mother's case, both his loyalty to the force and his relationships with Paige and Jessie come into question. What's more dangerous, a corrupt cop or a sister who's been crossed?
Joe is the proverbial rags to riches story. After leaving behind his blue collar roots, he founded Phoenix Gold, a small junior whose first mine "Aspire" hit a motherlode. But what lies beneath the glittering facade? As a deadly mining accident at Aspire starts to reveal cracks below the surface, questions arise. How far has Joe gone to ensure success? What is he willing to risk to avoid collapse?
Scott is a senior lawyer teamed up with Paige on the Phoenix Gold H&S violation case. He likes to win at any cost and doesn't mind crossing professional lines to get there. His chemistry with Paige and their similar drive for success has him blurring a few personal lines as well. Scott has always liked to play many sides but he'll soon be pressed to decide where he truly wants to wind up.
Warren is both charismatic and smart. As original outside legal counsel for Phoenix Gold, he was instrumental in their growth. In turn, Phoenix provided Warren with immeasurable advancement as well, primarily with regard to his bank balance. He likes to think of himself as a puppet master but with so many strings to control, it may be only a matter of time before he lets something slip.
Danny became a policeman not to uphold the law but because he liked the power. He has risen quickly through the ranks mainly due to his use of intimidation, payouts and coercion. As fellow detective Brennan begins to dig into the police investigation of Eve Tennant, one of Danny's first cases, he turns on Brennan like a viper. Will his instinct for self-preservation continue to obscure the truth?
A struggling, single mother of three daughters (Celeste, Paige and Jesse), we only see Eve in flashbacks. While Eve has never made the best decisions she always tried to put her daughters first. However, her arrest for murder and subsequent suicide became the defining moment in the Tennant sister's lives and drove them all apart.

Last September, I hosted Today Is the Day at my houuu… my mom's house in West Bloomfield, an upper middle class suburb, which is roughly a half hour outside of Detroit and about 15 minutes outside of Pontiac. I told Steve Austin and the boys that, if they leave their van on our drive way, I can guarantee with 99.9999999999999% certainty that their gear wouldn't get fucked with. It was pretty neat hanging out with one of my musical heroes, just shooting the shit about a variety of topics, one of which was of course how we're both right wingers and how it's tough to be one when you're in a scene dominated by Sanders supporting maroons.
At some point, I asked him if he'd ever met Ross the Boss of the Dictators and Manowar. He had not, nor had he even heard of the Dictators! So I gave him my old copy of Go Girl Crazy. Steve, if you're reading this, I hope you and the rest of the guys listened to it and enjoyed it! It was also surreal seeing Austin, with many a tattoo, including the confederate flag, interacting with my 4'11" Jewish mother and telling her in his Southern drawl, "m'am you have a beautiful home."
The reason I offered in the first place is because I live 15 minutes from the Pike Room, the venue they played at in Pontiac, MI. Between the venue and where I live, along Orchard Lake Rd, the scenery changes rapidly from the ghetto, to a lower middle class environment, to rich, scenic lake side property, to a bizarre, Tolkien/medieval world of castle-like homes, and then finally to the modern, upper middle class suburb where I live.
I'm assuming this type of drastic change in environment is typical in a lot of cities, where the high crime/low income and low crime/high income areas are a stone's throw away from each other, yet have little influence on the other. I love walking to the local public library and looking at the old time houses and white picket fences and daydreaming about living in a different time and era, where the 2.5 children and white picket fence dream was something people aspired to, rather than scoffed at; all before stopping at the pond/swamp with all dead tree branches that look hella cool at night.
When I was a younger lad, I thought living in the city was the be all end all of the hip and trendy; after all, that's where the bands and artists and loose sluts with tattoos reside. That's where you live within walking distance of the local bar, where they serve you pitchers of PBR for $6 (as a side note, when I went to see the Napalm Death with the Melvins and Melt-Banana, I deliberately purchased Bud Lite just to stand out from the hipsters). It's where the art galleries and art spaces are. Where the used bookstores are, where the tattoo shops are, where the record stores are, where the etc. etc…
According to a liberal black woman I was arguing with on the Facebook about whether Hamtramck is a ghetto or not (it is), the suburbs are racist. I guess it's racist to avoid going into high crime areas, where I've had my car stolen twice, where convenience store clerks are forced to work from behind bullet proof shields or where my friend Matt almost got his head blown off during a robbery at the Metro PCS where he works. To avoid these perks is to avoid diversity, you evil white devil, you. Except there are blacks that live in the suburbs and feel the same way. Along with all of the owners of the Chinese, Japanese, Indian and Middle Eastern restaurants which I like to go to. Or the Korean dry-cleaner. Or the Jewish tailor. Or the non-Muslim Arab liquor store owner. Multiculturalism actually works when the correct cultures mix together.
For the life of me, I do not understand why any of my friends or acquaintances live in Detroit or its Muslim and Polish Mordor, Hamtramck, other than it's dirt cheap, allows them to work few hours during the week and allows them to be at the bar every single night. Actually that pretty much answers my question; or, in the case of my friends Ian and Rachel, who live on a particularly slummy block off of Woodward Ave., allows them to score heroin on a nightly basis unabated by things like police officers or decency. And the fact that, in the suburbs, you won't find a shoddy, makeshift art gallery in which some girl urinates all over herself while people splash paint all over her body is of little consequence to me.
I've done the hipster, urban thing when I lived in Grand Rapids; I've wasted god knows how much dough on booze,checking out mediocre local bands and going to local hipster joints on a nightly basis to watch other morons wax their idiotic, uninformed political/social views on the ladies who nod with aplomb, as the guys try to get a strain of that HPV infected, hipster pussy. Hey, don't yell at me! I didn't learn until 2007 that women DO NOT CARE about using rubbers. As long as they're on the pill, or rather as long as they have the plan b, or rather as long as the county they reside in doesn't make abortion illegal, they're okay. Shit, I'd be surprised if some of them even can have babies anymore.
But the bottom line is, for me to head out of my comfortable little burg, where I can go to Uptown Grille or Library Pub and get drunk or sit at home and read or listen to my records, there either has to be a show or event going on or girls involved.
In the former case, I'm pretty much kept in the know thanks to the FB community, Metro Times or even word of mouth. I can go to the Loving Touch in Ferndale and catch Lightning Bolt, High on Fire or EYEHATEGOD, then get a couple tasty imported beers at One Eye'd Betty's down the road or dry out and get food at the Woodward Avenue Brewery. I can take the M10 freeway north to the Masonic Temple, where I got to see Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and went to Berserkerfest, where I got to see Voivod and Conan. I can go to the Majestic Theater, where I saw Napalm Death, the Melvins and Melt-Banana or PJ's Lager House, Corktown Tavern and UFO Factory in Detroit. There's also Token Lounge in the hickish suburb of Westland, where I got to see performances from my boy Nik Turner of HAWKWIND, early ass punk rock band Slaughter and the Dogs and NWOBHM luminaries like Saxon, Girlschool and Raven. Hell, if I'm really feeling desperate, I can go to a house show in Ypsilanti or Ann Arbor. So, it's not as though I'm exactly out of the loop.
As for getting women, it's not exactly hard depending on my patience and/or determination; since I'm not ugly or fat, I can get a girl to sleep with me at least once every three months. When I'm hitting up OKCupid, I can pull tail roughly once or twice a month. Play "six degrees of Edwin Oslan" and you'll be able to link me back to some girl that is part of the Detroit punk/metal/underground scene that I've had a roll in the hay with and possibly even dated.
Personally I don't care if the girl is a weird punk chick, a normal one who does yoga and goes kayaking or is some place in between the two extremes; I mean, it is cool that crazy, but hot kook Melissa wears a cut-off denim vest with an Acid Bath patch on the back and was jamming Death (the Florida death metal band, not the black guys from Detroit) the night of Halloween that we hung out and slept together, but that's all icing on the cake really. Hell, Gabe the skinhead was in a relationship with a girl who lives right around the corner from me in neighboring burb of Walled Lake; she was a veterinarian and shared the same "why would you want to live in that shithole?" attitude as me. And she was just the way I like 'em; very cute, has a good job, doesn't pay attention to the news and doesn't give a flying hoot about politics. Why am I saying all this?
The point I'm making is that there is no reason to move to the city other than so you can say you're a "hip" urbanite. It's completely useless; I mean, maybe it works for some people to live in a really shitty part of town and own a loft and do art all day and barely work a normal job. Maybe that gives some people a thrill. But, to a man, I'm to wager that the Lydia Lunches and Richard Kerns of the world could do their goofy half-porn, art-wank-off nonsense in the burbs just as well as in some crime infested shithole. I mean, most bands come from the suburbs!
I get a thrill from walking in my neighborhood, going to the gun range in the white trash-y town of Keego harbor, working out and sculpting my Herculean physique or going to the Uptown Grille to ogle dumb as dirt servers, who wear tight black pants and serve the same exact craft brews you'd get at a hipster dive in Detroit, only without the snarky attitude. And you certainly won't find any girls who think it's okay to wear shorts and not shave their legs like that gross ass server we had at the Detroit Brewing Works.
The only reason I can ever see moving to Detroit proper and not some reasonably safe neighboring suburb is to be surrounded by slutty…err, I mean liberated women, who have a laissez-faire attitude towards sex. And, since that's something I can find in the suburbs, albeit with less tattoos, then there's really no reason to move out to the city. I got 99 problems, but getting a girl, who is loose enough to sleep with me the first night I meet her, ain't one.
6 thoughts on "Why Would I Move to Detroit When There Are Plenty of Strains of HPV to Catch in the Suburbs"
Why even take the time to write this? You will ride your high horse until the end, while everyone laughs at you behind your back. Have fun living with mom forever, ya dip.
I can tell just by the top of your head that you are indeed fat and ugly and bald.
So many words just to say "I am scared of being around black people"
So many works just to say "I am scared of being around black people"
"when I went to see the Napalm Death with the Melvins and Melt-Banana, I deliberately purchased Bud Lite just to stand out from the hipsters"- This is some of the lamest, most hipster shit I have ever read. Love hipsters in denial.

(I apologize if you've seen this at "A Grateful Man" but I'm excited and wanted to share the news!)
I just got a great surprise birthday gift: My first two children's books, "Clyde and I" and "Clyde and I Help a Hippo to Fly" have already been listed for sale on Amazon.com, a week ahead of schedule.
My third children's book, "Rusty Bear and Thomas, Too" is scheduled for release by September 30, and my fourth, "Grumbly Grumpadinkle", before the end of the year.
I'm still having fun and learning a lot, so regardless of what happens to them commercially, I've already won.
With Love, Russ

Brian Cashman worries a lot. It is what general managers do. To Cashman, nothing is ever perfect in Yankeeland. There is always something that could go wrong, catastrophically wrong, so Cashman thinks about the worst possible scenarios so he can be prepared if they come to fruition.
As the Yankees have won three straight series to begin the season with a 6-3 record, Cashman has been pleased with their performance. But, naturally, he wants more. He wants Javier Vazquez to get acclimated to Round 2 in New York and be a productive pitcher. He wants the relievers to grab their specific roles in the bullpen. He wants Robinson Cano to continue playing like an M.V.P. in-waiting.
But what Cashman wants more than anything else for the Yankees is some breathing room. With the Yankees,...

It is easy to be cheerful at Christmas. Even as Advent brought us ever closer to Christmas Day, we found ourselves giving money to the poor, volunteering with our church, praying with more intensity, and spending more time with friends and loved ones. But once the Epiphany is behind us, and the overwhelming joy we felt in remembering our Savior's birth begins to recede, many of us may drop these worthy movements in our lives, and return to "ordinary time."
Can you imagine what our world would be like if everyone, like Charles Dickens' Scrooge, would "honor Christmas in our heart, and keep it all the year?" The good news is that it is possible!
Here are some suggestions for how to keep the beauty and giving spirit of Christmas alive in your home and family all year long. After all, our Catholic faith is meant to be lived and shared, not just at Christmas, but every day of the year.
Remain active in the life of your church
You may have experienced a momentary rush of goodwill this Christmas volunteering with your parish's homeless ministry, wrapping gifts for the needy, or donating canned goods. Keep it up! There is no better time than now to join a ministry at your church.
From literacy to child care to nursing home visitation to pro-life events and beyond, our churches are always looking for committed lay people to help, and even to step up and lead. May I suggest the Legion of Mary, which is my personal favorite lay apostolate (and, might I add, the world's largest). And if you don't see the ministry you are looking for, start one. Chances are you are being called in some particular way. And don't just keep the activity to yourself – invite your friends and family to experience the joy of service alongside you.
Commit to your prayer life
Prayer is the time when we meet God. If you feel you simply don't know how to pray, or can't find where it belongs in your daily schedule, look for prayer retreats in your diocese or read a good book to get into the basics.
Some tend to see prayer as more difficult than it really is, but prayer can be as simple as saying the Jesus Prayer. No matter what format your prayer takes, however, it is best to simply start and allow God's grace to take you the rest of the way. Start small with a rosary, a Memorare, the Examen, or other simple, daily prayers. Then let God do the rest.
Committing to an active prayer life also means making your own home a prayerful sanctuary. Set aside an area as your prayer space. Equip it with a comfy chair, a small table to hold your prayer materials and rosary, a candle, or a crucifix. It is good to pray anywhere and always "without ceasing," but if you're looking to pray more deeply, setting aside this sacred space reminds us of the importance of what we are doing during prayer time: meeting with God.
Sing with your friends
I feel it is a real shame that people don't sing together anymore. And I don't mean karaoke! I mean shared songs that everyone knows, and in which no one is the star.
I was reminded of this recently while having dinner at the L'Arche community. After dinner, core family members took turns deciding which Christmas carols we would sing. It was a sweet, small, unifying gesture. We may have been a bit out of tune but it made no difference to the joy we all felt singing together. And anyway, as Elf tells us, "The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear."
Spend quality time
One of my favorite scenes, in any adaptation of A Christmas Carol, is when Scrooge observes his nephew, his nephew's wife, and their friends playing parlor games on Christmas Day. It reminds me of the games we played when I was a child, when my family gathered at my Grandma's house (epic family games of Bingo), or even while stuck in the car on a long drive.
I remember some particularly competitive games we played on car trips. In one game everyone would compete to be the person to spot the most states' license plates. Another game was to see who could count the highest number of cows (we're from the south, ya'll). We would also take turns telling one story in different parts, or play the "I'm going to the beach and bringing a…" game. They're not complex games, but they get you talking to each other, and it often results in much silliness.
Reclaim the tradition, year-round, of gathering friends and family in your living room for game time. Here's a list of Victorian Parlour Games to get you started. "Reverend Crawley's Game" sounds like a Victorian version of Twister.
Start a year-round tradition
Our holidays are usually full of traditions, from the Christmas day menu to who gets to put the last ornament on the top of the tree. Why not bring that spirit into the rest of the year?
Think about starting some new traditions. How about hosting friends on the first Sunday of the month for dinner? Or maybe attending adoration once a month with your children, followed by a shared meal? Consider starting a tradition of making a domestic pilgrimage to a new place at the same time each year. You might even consider re-reading your favorite saint's biography on the saint's feast day each year.
We look to our traditions to give us continuity and memories from year to year. But there's no reason traditions need to be relegated to a certain season, liturgical or otherwise.
Make year-round gifts
Christmas is usually when we make good on our pledges to charity, but why relegate this noble act to just December? If you're like me, you may find there are more charities you'd like to give to in December than your budget can cover. Instead, consider giving a small amount – say, $25 – to a different charity each month, thereby spreading the giving out throughout the year. This can become a family decision, too. Your children or siblings may have a heart for an entirely different cause. Together, you can teach each other about what special causes are important to you and share in the satisfaction of knowing you're supporting a number of worthy missions.
There are other ways to make small acts of charity throughout the year. You can buy a homeless person dinner or even just a cup of coffee. Maybe write a letter to a family member or a homebound friend each month. Ask for a Mass to be said for a friend. Or spend a holy hour praying for someone else's intentions. There are many opportunities every day to give to others.
Look into your own heart
These are all simple suggestions for actions we can take to keep the joy of Christmas alive in our hearts and lives year-round. But I believe there is also a need for some introspection. Why is it that we may default to a belief that we are not capable of living in this loving way for more than a few weeks of the year? What holds us back from loving God freely, and showing that love in the world?
Recently I revisited the story of Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10). Zacchaeus, a tax collector, hears Jesus is coming and "sought to see who Jesus was." Being short in stature, this venerable leader of the community thinks nothing of running ahead of the crowd and climbing a tree to get a better view as Jesus passes. Jesus, seeing him there – or, I think, understanding this great and foolish expression of love – asks Zacchaeus to come down, "For I must stay at your house today." Zacchaeus "receives him joyfully," and exclaims, "Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I restore it fourfold."
We hear nothing in this story about Zacchaeus's doubt of his own "loveableness." He does not consider his station in life, the dignity with which he is supposed to conduct himself as a public official, or the chance that, like the disciple Matthew, his status as a tax collector makes him unworthy to be a part of Jesus's circle. He gives himself totally, and freely, and his reward is to receive God's love freely in return. As Jesus replies, "For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost."
Keep Christmas all year long
I believe we do ourselves a great disservice when we assume ourselves incapable of great love or a great relationship with God. As St. Ignatius might say, the mistaken belief of our own unworthiness is a trick of "the enemy of our human nature." Rather, we were made by God to love Him, and to strive to learn to love and serve our neighbors. It seems that Christmas is the time of year when this is easiest, or most obvious, yet I believe that every day of the year presents the opportunity to "honor Christmas in our heart, and keep it all the year."
One last thought: I recently attended my church's annual evening of Christmas lessons and carols and heard a song called "The Work of Christmas" for the first time. As the song says:
When the song of the angels is stilled,
When the star in the sky is gone,
When the kings and princes are home,
When the shepherds are back with their flock,
The work of Christmas begins:
To find the lost,
To heal the broken,
To feed the hungry,
To release the prisoner,
To rebuild the nations,
To bring peace among people,
To make music in the heart.

Clayton Kershaw pitched a complete-game three hitter against the Padres Thursday night, picking up the 2-1 win. The one run by San Diego was an offensive outburst for teams facing the Dodger ace; Kershaw had held opponents scoreless for the previous 41 consecutive innings.
The 2011 and 2013 Cy Young Award winner and 2012 runner up has taken dominance to a new level. Despite missing all of April with a balky back, Kershaw leads Major League pitchers in ERA, WHIP, strikeout-to-walk ratio, complete games, and winning percentage. The NL's Pitcher of the Month for June, Kershaw is quietly putting together what could be his finest season.
Signed to a seven-year, $215 million contract in the off season, Kerhsaw has led the Majors in earned run average each of the last three seasons. Only Lefty Grove and Greg Maddux have strung together three consecutive league-leading years. Now in his seventh season in the Majors, Kershaw appears to be improving with age. After going 26-23 in his first three big league seasons, Kerhsaw has gone 42-25 since. For his career, he is forty games above .500.
The Dodgers' first-round pick of the 2006 draft might well prove to be the world's first nine-figure financial bargain.
Only 26 years old, he'll appear in his fourth All Star game on July 15, along with teammates Zack Greinke, Dee Gordon, and Yasiel Puig. In his three previous appearances in the mid-Summer classic, the lefty has thrown three scoreless frames. Dodger manager spoke before Friday's game on what it means to be an All Star, referring to Kershaw as if he were a grizzled veteran.
"Clayton and Zack have obviously been there before," Mattingly said, "but for Dee and Yasiel, it'll be a great experience. There's something special about your first one. They'll have a great time."
With all the individual accolades — he also pitched his first career no-hitter in June — the one thing that has so far eluded Kershaw is a World Series Championship. The Dodgers have the highest payroll in baseball and the second best record in the NL. With a pitching staff that includes Greinke, Hyun Jin Ryu, and the rejuvenated Josh Beckett, the team is built for both the grueling marathon of the regular season and the short sprints of the post-season.
Perhaps the race well end with Kershaw completing his résumé with a World Series win. Clayton Kershaw world champion? It has a nice ring to it.

As I've promised you last time, I write you more about one of my returning clients, Arthur. Arthur was great fan of trying different escorts in my home town until he met me. It happened long ago, he just needed companion to go around in the city for a few hours, and my escort agency recommended me. Arthur told to the agency that it's possible that he do not want any sexual service from the lady who will come, but at the end I made him a surprise. I brought him to one of the favorite restaurants of local escorts, where clients and escorts can be separated to little boxes and do whatever they want, and I gave him a fast blowjob. Just read the story before if you are already horny or curious. By the way, I sucked out everything from him so he was so satisfied that we discussed to meet again. I've told him that I work only through my escort agency so he have to call my agency again.
Escorts and returning clients
I always preferred returning clients over new ones. Of course 90% of the clients who order escorts are new customers, but if you have a few returning clients who have emotional feelings towards you then you can be lucky enough to have enough money all the time. Of course those men have to be rich or at least financially stable. Arthur was this kind of business man, with a family in the background, wife and two children, but good sex was missing from his life for a long time. They were not so well for many years with his wife, so he returned towards escorts. He didn't want to divorce or left his family, just to have some fun when it was possible. This is how I came into his life, through the website of my escort agency. I was a relatively new girl on this website, but Arthur knew it from long ago. He ordered many girls in the past years, so he was one of the VIP members of this agency. Also girls liked him, as he was an easy client, with fast or no sex, he was a real gentleman by the way. He was not the most beautiful or handsome guy who I've ever met, but in his early 50's he was still capable to make love with women and he was well dressed, polite, had fun.
Call from my escort agency
I almost forgot about our first meeting with Arthur, when I gave him a fast blowjob. One day my escort agency called me, that someone wants to meet me next week. They said it's someone who I met before and this man is one of the VIP clients who's only dream and wish is to meet me again. I was very curious so I asked my agent who was this guy? They said it's Arthur, and I had to something very well, as this guy has never ever ordered the same girls.

When it comes to blogging, there are things you can do, and things you cannot. Writing a review on an exhibition that ended a few weeks ago surely falls into the latter category. But as long as it allows me to share a few pics and some interesting facts I learnt in the process, I guess it's finally worth it! So here it is: I decided to pay a visit to the Wits Arts Museum (WAM) during Easter, with no expectations whatsoever and ended up walking through an exhibition called the Stars of North, celebrating sculptures from Limpopo. The WAM is quite an interesting museum per se. Marketed as the "home to the largest and most significant holdings of African arts in southern Africa" according to the Museum's webiste, it is actually a rather small museum, spread over 3 tiny floors, one of which was closed for maintenance during my visit. This led me to reflect on how misunderstood the African Art market might be….
But this is another story, and I'm not here to complain: I definitely prefer smaller museums, as long as the quality of the pieces exhibited is good. And damn yes, they were! Sculptures of Johannes Maswanganyi, Paul Thavhana, Noria Mabasa, Nelson Mukhuba, Jackson Hlungwani, Johannes Segogela, and other artists absolutely unknown to me were shown to the visitors, and I greatly enjoyed my (rather quick) walk through the museum. The purpose of the exhibition was to revisit the work of some major artists from the Limpopo province who, after being acclaimed in the 80s for their delicate combination of traditional & contemporary use of materials and techniques – which led them to tour nationally and internationally – fell from grace when they surrendered to the sweet sirens of the art market, and started to produce numerous series of their work.
The curator of the museum had taken a rather bold stance by placing at the entrance of the exhibition a Tokoloshe , modeled Azwifarwi Ragimana. Quite an interesting way to greet the visitors, when you know that in the Zulu mythology, the Tokoloshe is a widget-type evil spirit, "called upon by malevolent people to cause trouble for others", whose main duties start from scaring the children away to causing illness and death. Tokoloshes are so common in the African cultures, and so much feared, that they are the reasons why many traditional African beds are built so high (more than 1m high), so that the Tokoloshes cannot reach the nuptial bed while everyone is asleep. When I started to look up for information about the different sculptors, I found out that their stories were quite similar. All of them were country boys, most often shepherds, who had been taught the art of carving wood by their father as a mean to create functional items, such as utensils and headrests. None of them had formal artistic training, but they all were deeply influenced by the Bible stories they had been read profusely and that became one of the major sources of inspiration, together with the daily life of the villages in Limpopo.
One of them, Jackson Hlungwani, an eccentric in all senses of the term, had an interesting story. He migrated to Johannesburg in the middle of the 20th century, but soon had to come back to Limpopo when he lost a finger in an industrial accident. One day, when he was about to commit suicide, Christ appeared to him and told him to start his own church, make carvings and use them in his teaching. He did all these three things, and his church, Yesu Galeliya One Aposto in Sayoni Alt and Omega is now very well established in the northern province. He decorated the church with his own figurative sculptures, acted as a spiritual leader, an artist and a healer, and lived happily until the day he died, in 2010, at the age of 87.
So yes, the "Stars of the North" exhibition might be over, but next time you go to Braamfontein, don't hesitate to stop at the WAM: who knows, you might have the pleasant surprise to be greeted by another Tokoloshe yourself!

"A country destroys itself from within, not without," Joe said as he stood next to his lawyer.
"How do you plead?" the judge asked.
"Not guilty." With a slight smile on his face, he turned around to face two men that were seated at the back. Dropping his smile, he sang through clenched teeth, "Tell me what you want to hear, Something that will light those ears, I'm sick of the insincere, I'm going to give all my secrets away."
The men got up and rushed out of the courtroom to their government tagged car. One of them made a call to the red phone. "Sir," he said, "he got a conscience."

Charlotte's Web
E.B. White
You have been my friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing. I wove my webs for you because I liked you. After all, what's a life, anyway? We're born, we live a little while, we die. A spider's life can't help being something of a mess, with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone's life can stand a little of that.
What does it mean to be made in God's image? Among other things, it means we are moral agents whose actions bear eternal consequence. For better or worse, our decisions resonate in eternity. We certainly find this true in our role as stewards over the rest of creation, but like Cain we also are our brother's keeper.
In Booked: Literature in the Soul of Me, Karen Swallow Prior says this:
A few days later, the horse trader told me, in his gentle, gruff way, that there was nothing to be done; the damage was too great. "His legs were just too bad. He couldn't stand anymore." Mercifully, he had put Sonny down.I knew that ultimately this was my doing. I had brought this horse into the world, and I had failed him in the worst possible way that a living creature can be failed. I wore—and still wear—the weight of this responsibility. I never again brought an animal into the world.
Have you ever felt responsible for the suffering of another?
How did you cope with that burden?
Genesis 4:9-13
Then the Lord said to Cain, "Where is Abel your brother?" He said, "I do not know. Am I my brother's keeper?" And He said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood cries out to Me from the ground. So now you are cursed from the earth, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand. When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield its strength to you. A fugitive and a vagabond you shall be on the earth." And Cain said to the Lord, "My punishment is greater than I can bear!"

E.B. White and Charlotte's Web
(1899–1985). Although his publications range from three well-known children's books to numerous essays, books, and poems for adults, E.B. White's works consistently display eloquent craftsmanship and a keen sense of observation.
Elwyn Brooks White was born on July 11, 1899, in Mount Vernon, New York. He attended Cornell University on a scholarship and served as editor in chief of its daily newspaper. After receiving a bachelor's degree in English in 1921, he worked for the United Press, the American Legion News Service, and the Seattle Times. He took a job as a mess boy aboard an Alaskan ship in 1923 but returned to Mount Vernon later in the year to work in an advertising agency.
The founding of The New Yorker magazine in 1925 proved pivotal to White's career. After having several submissions accepted, he joined the staff full-time in 1927. He married one of the editors, Katharine Sergeant Angell, in 1929 and became stepfather to her two children; a son was born to them the following year. Although the couple later left New York for a Maine farm, White remained a lifelong contributor to the magazine. He also wrote a monthly column entitled "One Man's Meat" for Harper's magazine from 1938 to 1943.
White's publications for adults included The Lady Is Cold (1929), Is Sex Necessary? (1929, with James Thurber), Farewell to Model T (1936), The Fox of Peapack and Other Poems (1938), The Wild Flag (1946), The Second Tree from the Corner (1954), and The Points of My Compass (1962). Letters of E.B. White was published in 1976, and a collection of his essays appeared a year later. White also contributed to and revised several editions of William Strunk Jr.'s classic writer's manual, The Elements of Style.
White's first children's book was Stuart Little (1945), an adventure story about a two-inch-(5-centimeter-)tall, mouselike son born to average human parents. White followed the success of that book with Charlotte's Web (1952), winner of the 1958 Lewis Carroll Shelf Award and runner-up for the 1953 Newbery Medal. The book tells of a small pig whose life is spared twice, first by a farmer's daughter and later by the ingenuity of a friendly spider. White drew inspiration for the tale from observing his own farm animals. The book was adapted into an animated film in 1972. White's final children's book, The Trumpet of the Swan (1970), chronicles the life of a mute trumpeter swan who learns to communicate by writing on a slate and by playing a trumpet. It was nominated for the National Book Award in 1971 and was included on the 1972 International Board on Books for Young People Honor List.
White received a multitude of honors, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom (1963), the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award (1970), and the National Medal for Literature (1971). In 1978 he was awarded a Pulitzer Prize special citation for his body of work. White died in Maine on October 1, 1985.
Charlotte's Web
A children's novel by E.B. White, published in 1952, with illustrations by Garth Williams. This widely read tale, which is one of the classics of children's literature, takes place on a farm in Maine and concerns a pig named Wilbur and his devoted friend Charlotte, the spider who manages to save his life by writing words in her web. White's own life on a farm contributed to the tranquil, pastoral setting of the book and the careful observations of animal behaviour. The novel explores, among other things, the nature of friendship, a theme many adults as well as children have appreciated.

i find tattoos intriguing for a couple of reasons. one, once you get one, you almost instantly want another. what's up with that? they aren't cheap and they hurt. i mean, don't get me wrong, they are often super cool (although equally often, super awful), but what is it in our brain that tells us to get more and more and more tattoos? two, i love looking at other people's tattoos. i'm so interested in knowing the rational for them. why did you get that? why in those colors? three, once you have a tattoo you become part of this community of tattooed people. when i got my first tattoo, that was a very small community of people that i knew, but as i've gotten older and met more people that community has grown. and i'm not sure why, but it is a community. i mean, you don't feel camaraderie with other people with pierced ears, noses, etc, do you? maybe it's because tattoos are so permanent that we feel closer to others who've made the same commitment as us.
another thing i find so interesting about tattoos are different people's approach to them. i like to design my tattoos and i have to have them all planned out in advance. so when i walk into the tattoo parlor i can sit down, give them exactly what i want, and get it done. rcg on the other hand, is very different. he gets an idea, does some research and then sends it off to the tattoo artist. he learns what the tattoo will look like when we show up to the appointment, and then he lets the tattoo artist further improvise with color and details. the crazy part is we are both equally pleased with the results when we leave.
it's been a while since my last tattoo, but ever since moving to mexico i have been thinking about getting a new one. i knew i wanted a skull but i had a hard time figuring out what exactly i wanted it to look like. i love the sugar candy skulls of dia de los muertos, but they were too intricate for what i wanted, so i started to look at the skulls i saw around tucson for inspiration and i got a lot of ideas.
left: a skull pin from popcycle // middle: a skull painted on the side of the rialto theatre in tucson // right: a painting hanging in borderlands brewery
then i doodled a ton.
finally drawing the perfect skull.
and here's the final result -- a flowered skull in among my other flowers:
like i said before, rcg goes about getting his tattoos very differently than i do. when he got his first tattoo, he knew he wanted to get the cover of one of his favorite albums, but he also let the tattoo artist have a little freedom by adding flames and feathers. this time, was similar. he was (is) really into dinosaurs; he wanted to become a paleontologist when he was younger. so as a tribute to that, he decided he wanted a dinosaur tattoo. his idea was for a scene going from his shoulder to his back, with a couple of predators looking around his shoulder, hunting a pack of herbivores on his back. after deciding that, he made sure both species (allosaurus and apatosaurus) were from the same period, and then let hh, our tattoo artist, design it and pick out the colors. (this is part one, stay tuned for part two!)

Not revealing much detail about the salient features of the proposal, civic body officials said that they held a meeting on Tuesday to finalize on the intricacies of the project.
"Based on the public polling and suggestions, we have finalized on the concepts and are working on it," said the city corporation commissioner, K Vijayakarthikeyan.
As per sources, working for the pan-city solution, the smart city initiative that has been finalised would ensure that the city would have better surveillance, monitor security and traffic of the city. "The central government has been clear from the beginning that these funds should not be used for infrastructure projects or civil work relating to the city. The idea should be innovative, creative and unique. Uniqueness of the proposal has a major share of points," said an official.
For area-based development, the project would be based on reducing traffic congestion, improving pedestrian pathways and lake conservation. "We have finalized a project that comprises both retrofitting and redevelopment," said an official.
The project was finalized based on public feedback, online polling, suggestions from industrialists, public representatives and officials from other sectors, the city corporation. "We have ensured that we have included all the suggestions," said an official.
The proposal submitted to the government has received a good response and the central government has also appreciated the civic body on the uniqueness of the idea. "We will submit the smart city plan on December 15 to the central government and are hopeful about positive results," said the city corporation commissioner, K Vijayakarthikeyan.
On January 15, the corporation commissioner will present the plan to the officials of the central government.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi had recently said in a meeting that uniqueness, involving green initiatives and increase in usage of solar power will be major criteria.

Oh my god! Send me the spamaganda!
Please quit forwarding me spamaganda. These are the messages about supporting our troops and loving our nation. I'm sure you're just trying to be patriotic and show your love for the men and women in our armed services, and that's great. But I don't need any more messages that start playing God Bless America when you open them. And I've already seen the open letter from a WWII dad to his son. Or the column about what's at stake in the war against terror.
All I get are gruesome thong failure photos (thanks Eve!) and friendship chain letters. Sending a chain letter is not an act of friendship... But sending me kitchy spamaganda - that would be an act of love. Support our ribbons, y'all.

Air Jordan 13 Retro
Sizes: 7 – 13, 14, 15
Designing his signature AIR JORDAN XIII RETRO was a chance for John to share his unique skills with the world. His sneaker features his soccer number, a cartoon kid with a raised brow and those seven pills to represent the medicine he takes to manage the disease.
However, as his sneaker goes to show, John's life is much bigger than Crohn's. His twin brother, Jonah, makes an appearance on the sockliner, as does his beloved German shepherd, Teagan, and an Egyptian pyramid. "If I could travel anywhere in the world, that's where I'd want to go," John explains. Even his favorite foods get a shout-out: Look closely at the lace tips, and you'll see the words CHICKEN AND JO-JOS.
One of the most powerful features of John's sneaker is also the one that's hardest to spot. Flip the shoe over and you'll see the word "Crohn's" on the outsole. "When I'm walking, I want to literally stomp out the disease with every step," John declares. Right behind this statement, the words COURAGE, STRENGTH and FIGHT surround the midsole, backing John's every stride against his illness.

Event created by Sarah
Event details
Otakon is one of the largest pop-culture conventions (and the largest anime convention) in our area. It is also our biggest convention when it comes to sign-ups! Otakon has consistently pulled attendance numbers of 28-33k attendees, many of whom are in our target demographic. Otakon hosts a large gaming hall in which many unusual, rare, or popular video and arcade games are available for free play to attendees. In this gaming hall, there are also small indie developers with booth space who are promoting their games. This is where our booth will be located.
This year, Otakon is moving to Washington, DC and will be held in the DC Convention Center. This is a significantly larger location with better public transit access than the Baltimore Convention Center, however since it will be their first year (and ours) in the new location, I cannot provide many details at 4 months out from the convention. Some standard volunteering guidelines will apply, and I have included them below. If this is a convention you would like to attend this year as a volunteer, please RSVP as soon as possible so we can plan staffing needs and get an appropriate number of badges from the Otakon team.
I am currently unaware of the total number of volunteer badges we will have available to us for this year. I will be working on this with my contact at Otakorp over the next month or so. For the time being, we will tentatively operate off of the following schedule, which is subject to change:
- 10 AM to 5 PM includes Booth Setup
- 11 AM to 6 PM
- 12 PM to 7 PM includes Booth Breakdown and lockup
- 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM includes Booth Setup
- 10 AM to 5 PM
- 12 PM to 7 PM
- 5 PM to 11 PM
- 7 PM to 1 AM includes Booth Breakdown and lockup
- 10 PM to 1 AM includes Booth Breakdown and lockup
- 10 AM to 2 PM includes Booth Setup
- 11 AM to 3 PM includes Booth Breakdown
PLEASE DO NOT TAKE YOUR CONVENTION BADGE HOME UNLESS OTHERWISE INSTRUCTED. These badges will likely need to be passed back and forth between volunteers throughout the weekend.
Please plan on parking 1 hour prior to your volunteering shift. Traffic in the city gets heavy in the late morning, particularly on Friday and Saturday. It may become harder to find a garage that is not full on Saturday or Sunday. If you are not staying at the convention late into the evening, it may be better to use public transit into the city. Please reference Google Maps to assist you in locating a parking garage close to the convention center.
Volunteers who will be driving to the convention will incur parking expenses. These parking expenses will not be reimbursed, however they can be written off at your end-of-year tax return as volunteer expenses. Please be sure to request a receipt if you use cash-paid event parking. Retain a copy of your receipts for your tax records.
The Walter E. Washington Convention Center has its own Metro stop off of the Green and Yellow lines. Volunteers choosing to take transit who live closer to Baltimore or in the counties may be able to use the MARC train system for inexpensive and efficient transit into DC, where they can then transfer to Metro rail to their final destination or obtain other transit (i.e. bus, Uber, etc.). Please keep in mind that the MARC system runs on a very limited schedule compared to the DC Metro, and you will need to plan your trip and your transit according to your volunteer shift in such a way that you are able to get home successfully.
Otakon has created a guide to alternative transit options here: https://www.otakon.com/info/location/all-roads/
Volunteers who take public transit to the convention will incur transit expenses. These transit expenses will not be reimbursed, however they can be written off at your end-of-year tax return as volunteer expenses. Retain a copy of your receipts for your tax records.
At this time, we are not entirely sure if the industry badges provided by Otakon will allow normal access to panels and events. This section will be updated with further information as it becomes available.
During your volunteer shift (especially since coverage is going to be minimal), you are not permitted to use your badge to attend events or panels. You are expected to be present at the table and actively recruiting future Extra Life participants.
Before or after your volunteer shift, if your badge does not need to be handed off to another volunteer, you are welcome to explore the convention. All badges MUST be turned in to @Sarah before leaving the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. You may not attend off-site events, and you may not attend 18+ or hentai panels. Badge hand-offs will be coordinated via group text message. If you attend an event, please be sure to remove/conceal your Extra Life name badge.
Before, during, and after your shift — especially every minute that you wear that convention badge — you are representing Extra Life, Johns Hopkins Children's Center, and the Extra Life Baltimore Guild. Otakon has generously waived their fees for us in order to make it possible for us to attend and volunteer at this event, and it is a very successful convention for us. It is very important that we maintain a great relationship with the staff at Otakon so that we can continue to attend. Remember, you are representing a children's charity. None of us would judge you for attending cosplay burlesque , but you shouldn't be attending it using a badge donated for professional use. Use common sense, and check with @Sarah if you aren't sure if the panel or event you'd like to attend is appropriate.
To consider and plan out panels and events you'd like to attend, download the Guidebook app from Google Play or iTunes. This is a great resource for additional information about the convention (hours, directions, and updates).
If you need to take a quick bathroom break and you do not have backup coverage at the booth, please take any loose valuable items with you (i.e. laptops, tablets, cell phones). There will be a small lock box available in our booth as well. We have not been to the new location in DC yet, but it is likely that there will be bathrooms located in the gaming hall.
If you have backup coverage at the booth and need to leave to get food or take a bathroom break, please be courteous and let the other volunteer know that you are leaving the table.
Lines at the food vendors nearest the gaming hall are horrendous, and it is not practical to leave the convention to purchase food (trust me, the lines will be even worse at normal restaurants). Any food you may be able to purchase will be overpriced convention food. It is strongly suggested to pack a lunch if possible.
Please let us know when you can volunteer. I will update the event with confirmed volunteer names below the shifts they have agreed to work. We need one volunteer minimum per shift to start off with, however extra coverage during periods that there is a badge free would be appreciated! For additional details, please message @Sarah, @NodnarbDude or @Ceraph1216.
Volunteers will receive ongoing updates and instructions throughout the week and during the convention. Thanks so very much for donating your time and energy for the kids!
I will post additional transit resources closer to the date of the convention.

Watch the official teaser for Michael Jackson's upcoming album XSCAPE, out May 13th and available NOW pre-order.
During the trial of Dr Conrad Murray we will be subjected to a relentless media in their endeavor to create Conrad Murray as the victim instead of Michael.
As we all know this is not the first time the media has distorted the truth for ratings and money and it will not be the last.
I thought I would re-post this article from the Voices of Education.
We need to constantly let the mainstream media know that we will no longer accept lies only truth.

February Block Lottery
For February we will be making Fractured Star blocks designed by Nancy Miller. Here is a link to her tutorial. The blocks will be 12.5 inches unfinished.
I used HSTs rather than following Nancy's tutorial, however for directional fabrics I would suggest using this tutorial. Blocks should use Kona Chartreuse paired with black and white fabrics. If you make more than one block (three are allowed), please try to change up your fabric selections or positions so that no two blocks are identical.
Our February meeting will be Thursday, February 21st at 6:30 pm so you have lots of time to sew up your entries. Don't forget to share a photo of your completed block in our flickr group! (It is always fun to see what you can win!)
6 comments:
Hiya! Looking forward to making this (and suddenly thankful for that 1/2 yard of Kona chartreuse I got for Christmas!) I noticed this wasn't under the Block Lottery tab but thought a link there might be helpful too.ReplyDeleteReplies
Yeah, it has been a rough week with everyone still sick and trying to get ready for the dyeing class on Sat. I am a little behind! It is up now.Delete
One more thing... Does the chartreuse have to be the background or can we use black and white for that?Delete
I think you can arrange the colors any way you want. I also think you can use solid back or solid white for part of it if you want.Delete
Sometime few educational blogs become very helpful while getting relevant and new information related to your targeted area. As I found this blog and appreciate the information delivered to my database.ReplyDelete
