not so much everyone of his peers have to die, just certain ones and naruto must become stronger during that process
not so much everyone of his peers have to die, just certain ones and naruto must become stronger during that process
1. the 6 bodies had akatsuki clothes
2. there was a fatty among them, same as the one summoned
3. they have the rinnegan
4. they all have same hair color
There is no debate there, they are undoubtfully part of the 6 bodies.
there would be more points to debate that the 2 bodies are not of the 6 that were in that room than to debate that naruto or minato are the destined child. but more than likely those bodies are of the 6.
And besides J man is low on chakra at this point things dont look so good for him.
Of course 1 lesson Naruto has shown us is its more than just ninjitsu , and chakra capacity . A ninja will manifest thier true str and surpass thier limits when trying to protect those precious to them. The J mans WILL OF FIRE shall manifest and then you will see what hes really made of.
Fire type
What chakra type are you?
Because 6 v 1 is complete overkill and a waste of chakra.Whats to stop him form summoning the other 4?
And besides J man is low on chakra at this point things dont look so good for him.
Of course these bodies are 3 of the 6 we've seen. Debating that they are not, is just stupid. If they aren't, then who are they? Random Akastuki members that coincidentally have the rinnengan, and same hair color as Pein?
Pain has only 3 bodies left, not 4
1+2+3=6 taa daa!

well atleast it was a better chapter than last week!
but anyway, yeah i agree he's used up 2 of his bodies so far. but i believe he's about to be gettin' another one. Jiraiya-sama is about to become part of his collection. just a theory. one that comes true hopefully. ive been on a role lately with theories lately. (straight up told everyone that Takezo Kensei was the new villain on Heroes and that he was Adam Monroe! but thats a whole 'nother subject)
anyway, i think if he did take Jiraiya's body then it would definately be a kinda sad, yet vengeful fight between him and Naruto whenever they do have their battle, which is def. comin'. well at least i got somethin 2 look forward to~!
J-Man will own Pain.End of discussion.

I grew up just south of Eastfield College in Corsicana, Texas so I am a true Texan. As a young girl I played teacher with my dolls so I always knew I would grow up to be a teacher. After I graduated from North Texas State University, I immediately began my teaching career. I taught theatre and speech in high school and then was fortunate to be a charter member of Eastfield College. I have never wanted to teach at any other college.
I have so many interests. I enjoy my family, teaching, my home and travel, which I do often. Not many people know that I have traveled to Europe over twenty times and that 2009 will be my seventeenth year to travel in the month of July across the United States. During the school year, I find places in magazines that I want to visit and after the first session of summer school is over, I take off in my car for one month. I enjoy the beautiful country and the people I meet along the way.
Last, but certainly not least, I love to teach. A quotation that I have always loved is "To teach is to touch a life forever". I really do believe this, and I work to encourage students to have positive goals and big dreams and to never, never give up because in our country anything is possible. I have always believed that whenever we make up our minds Providence moves, too. We just have to work to reach our goals and dreams. I am living the life of my dreams, and it inspires me every day. I want to encourage and help my students have the opportunity to do the same.
I married my husband Jim the year I started teaching at Eastfield College. We are blessed with two children, Laci Secor and Jason Forrest. We have three grandchildren and a fourth will be arriving in June, 2009
My Grandchildren: Brook, Gage, and Saunders
Communication Club
I started the Eastfield College Communication Club. It is one of the most active clubs on campus. Students can choose to get college credit if they participate in the club or they can just attend for the experience. Some years ago the club students started calling me Ms. Mary and that title stayed with me. Now, most of my students address me by that name. I have included a link to the Communication Club Email if you are interested in joining for credit or non-credit. The club experience will give you confidence in being an active and participating member of an organization in college or in the community.

"I bought these in tan six days ago from my local DSW. This is my second day wearing them, and already the front of the sole is peeling away from the shoe, and the heel cap on the boot has fallen off. These are cute, but if you plan on walking (not city walking, just walking to your car in them), BRING GLUE, YOU'LL NEED IT."

Not comfy
"I love the color and the stripe detail, but they're not comfortable. There's a weird bump at the heel that you can feel when you walk. I would definitely try these on before buying them."

About this Costume
- Construction Details:
Baiken is 100% cotton blend (sounds like an underwear commercial). Lots of heat & bond & satin stitching. The most fun part of the costume was ripping, burning & distressing the sleeve end. The rest of the costume just felt like a chore for me to make. I learned from this experience to never make something unless my heart & soul is in it 100%. I love this hobby & I never want to feel like its a chore or a burden. But I made a commitment to get it done & I pumped her out in a week. The scar is liquid latex, rigid collodion & liquid makeup. The wig is 2 pink wigs clipped together. In the future, I'm going to sew a comb into the front to keep it pinned in place from all the weight.
- Personal Thoughts:
- I was asked to judge the Cherry Blossom Festival's cosplay contest at the Smithsonian, hosted by the DC Anime Club. It was a fun experience being involved in a costume contest in a gorgeous place like the museum. The curator of the event asked the judges to wear elaborate or Japanese culture geared costumes. So I used the chance as an excuse to sew Baiken. I couldn't take my wooden katana to the National Mall (obviously) so I substituted her weapon for a paper parasol instead. I wish I had more time to apply the makeup. I could have done a MUCH better job with her markings & her scar, but I literally had 10 minutes to get ready before going on stage. I plan on fixing up the costume, making it fit better, make her claw hand & chain & doing a better makeup job with more time & wearing her in the future. Possibly to Animazement.

First it was cupcakes, but now pop cakes are the latest craze. These little gems are the perfect on any party table and Bakerella (Angie Dudley) is behind the new craze, blogging all about it. Cake Pops Christmas is her third book. It features more than 20 cake pop decorations, all themed around Christmas. She chats to Linda Hall.
How did Cake Pops come to be?
I had been making cake balls for a while and wanted to find a way to make them cuter than just a ball covered in chocolate. I thought they would be cute with the balls right side up so they would resemble a lollipop.
Then I started experimenting and created a way to shape the balls into cupcakes using a cutter and then dipping them in multiple candy coatings decorated with sprinkles.
The resulting cupcake pop was really the start of the cake pop craze. People went crazy for them and I started experimenting with different designs and showing others how to make them as well. In 2010, my first book was published with all the tips and tricks people need for making successful pops.
Through my site and the book, they started popping up all over the world in homes, schools, bakeries, offices - anywhere people wanted to share sweet treats with others and make people smile.
Why the nom de plume?
When I first began my blog, I wanted to be anonymous. At first I thought I would be called Jane Dough, then Jane Fondant (a play on Jane Fonda), but I didn't just want to work with fondant. So with Jane Fonda in my mind, I thought of her movie Barbarella and immediately thought of Bakerella. I liked the name because it was so generic and didn't lock me in to one kind of baking.
What sparked your love of baking?
I took a cake decorating class in 2007 that really opened my eyes. I have always loved sweets, but it wasn't until that first cake decorating class that I learned how much I enjoyed baking and decorating.
Are cake pops just for children?
Definitely not. Actually, I think adults might enjoy them more because they can really appreciate the work that goes into them. It's amazing what can be done with a small ball of cake and candy.
And the feeling of pride and accomplishment when you make your own is great.
Who is your biggest fan?
I don't know really. I prefer to think of readers of the site as friends with a common interest and a big sweet tooth.
What ingredient could you not live without?
Chocolate. Definitely chocolate. And sugar. And butter. And chocolate.
What is your favourite cooking gadget?
I really love my KitchenAid mixer. I never knew what I was missing with my old hand-mixer.
If you're not baking what do you like to do?
Eat cookies. Just kidding. I like to do simple things like spending time with friends and family.
Tell us three things about yourself people may not know or may be surprised to learn.
I've had two kidney transplants in the past 20 years.
My mum donated one of hers to me the second time.
Oh, and I don't really cook. I bake.
What's next for you?
I hope to do another book, but right now, Cake Pops Holidays and the Cake Pops Toy I had come out this autumn are keeping me busy. Happily and gratefully busy.

Advantages of High-Index Lenses
Thinner. Because of their ability to bend light more efficiently, high-index lenses for nearsightedness have thinner edges than lenses with the same prescription power that are made of conventional plastic material.
Lighter. Thinner edges require less lens material, which reduces the overall weight of the lenses. Lenses made of high-index plastic are lighter than the same lenses made in conventional plastic, so they're more comfortable to wear.
Lightweight lenses are even more of a benefit for farsighted prescriptions, which can make conventional lenses very heavy. And most high-index lenses also have an aspheric design, which gives them a slimmer, more attractive profile and reduces the magnified "bug-eye" look that conventional lenses cause in strong farsighted prescriptions.
Anti-reflective coating (also called AR coating or anti-glare coating) is a microscopically thin multilayer coating that eliminates reflections from the front and back surface of eyeglass lenses.
By doing so, AR coating makes your lenses nearly invisible so people can focus on your eyes, not distracting reflections from your eyeglasses.
Anti-reflective coating also eliminates glare caused by light reflecting from your lenses. With reflections eliminated, lenses with AR coating provide better vision for night driving and more comfortable vision for reading and computer use.
AR coating is highly recommended for all eyeglass lenses, but particularly for polycarbonate and high-index lenses, which reflect more light than regular glass or plastic lenses if anti-reflective coating is not applied.
Signature - Fully clear indoors and darker outdoors. Thanks to our exclusive Chromea7 photochromic technology, they are more reactive to bright sun, partial sun and indirect light – such as light reflected from buildings, cars, and many other surfaces.
Available Colors: Gray - Brown - Graphite Green
Vantage - Transitions Vantage lenses don't just adapt to changing light, they also polarize as they darken. Outdoors, the polarization adjusts to match the level of outdoor glare, which can vary as the day progresses and conditions change. That means you see life in the best light with less glare for better clarity and color.
Available Colors: Gray
Xtractive - Anywhere you go, Transitions XTRActive lenses are uniquely designed to protect your eyes from the brightest sun and harsh artificial light.
Available Colors: Gray - Brown - Graphite Green
Gradient lens tints for sunglasses are popular for both fashion and function. Gradient, when referring to lenses, means darkening by regular degrees (where the tint deepens gradually throughout the lens.) Most often, gradient lenses are tinted from the top down, with the darkest portion of the lens protecting you most when you look up (as would be needed if you were outside, with the sun overhead.)
Mirrored lenses have a reflective optical coating (called a mirror coating or flash coating) on the outside of the lenses that reduces glare by reflecting much of the light that hits the lens surface. The mirror coating decreases the amount of light passing through the tinted lens by 10–60%, making it especially useful for conditions with sand, water, snow, and at higher altitudes. Mirrored sunglasses are one-way mirrors.
What kind of a difference would I see with Polarization?

The Washington County 4-H County-wide Talk Meet was held on Monday, May 10 at St.
The Farm Service Agency reminds livestock producers who suffered livestock losses due to the May 1 floods that they must report losses to the FSA office to be eligible for the Livestock Indemnity Program. (LIP)
LIP provides assistance to producers for livestock deaths that result from disaster. LIP compensates livestock owners and contract growers for livestock death losses in excess of normal mortality due to adverse weather, including losses due to hurricanes, floods, blizzards, disease, wildfires, extreme heat and extreme cold.
Last year was a challenging year for even our experienced hay producers relative to baling and storage moisture. We experienced several hay fires, along with lower quality as a result of excessive heating caused by baling at higher than safe moisture. When the internal temperature of hay rises above 130 degrees Fahrenheit, problems arise that will initially lead to lower quality and possibly spontaneous combustion. All hay baled above 15 percent moisture and above will show some increase in temperature for the first couple weeks after baling.
John W. McCauley, FSA state executive Director for Kentucky, has announced that USDA state and county emergency boards are in the process of completing detailed loss assessment reports for losses resulting from the April 30 and continued flooding. "The State Emergency Board will provide internal assessment reports to Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack as soon as practical," said McCauley. "Because the flooding continues, full assessments cannot be completed at this time."
"Going Pink" was the theme of the Washington/Marion County 4-H Fashion Revue held on April 27 at the Washington County Extension Office. Nine 4-H members from each county participated in the show that highlighted the sewing projects they completed this year. Each 4-Her is now qualified to participate in the Lincoln Trail 4-H Rally Day scheduled for Saturday, May 15 at the Elizabethtown Christian Academy. Participating from Washington County were Danielle Wilkerson, Amanda DeWitt , Makayla Lanham ,Abbigail Gullett , Jenny Begley,
Before I write about tomato growing, I want to remind everyone that the Tuesday, May 11, Wheelbarrow Class on growing great annuals from seed still has a few openings for anyone that would like to attend. Call the Washington County Extension Office at 859-336-7741. If you haven't attended any classes, the cost is $10, if you have already attended some classes the cost is $5. Each person attending will receive at least 15 packages of flower seeds.
The annual 4-H Youth Fair was held on April 23 and 24 at the extension office. The overall class champions in each class are now qualified for the Kentucky State Fair in August. Other projects such as horticulture, food preservation, crops and all natural sciences will qualify in late summer for the Kentucky State Fair. Summer classes dealing with science, technology and agriculture will be announced soon and will be open to all youth of 4-H age in Washington County.
This is an interesting article we received this week, and I would like to share with you.
Despite oft-repeated claims by sources ranging from the United Nations to music star Paul McCartney, it is simply not true that consuming less meat and dairy products will help stop climate change.
UC Davis associate professor and air quality specialist Frank Mitolehner says that McCartney and the chair of the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ignored science when they launched a European campaign called "Less Meat = Less Heat."
Funding is available for projects that enhance the competitiveness of Kentucky's specialty crop industries, Agriculture Commissioner Richie Farmer has announced.
The Kentucky Department of Agriculture is accepting applications for up to $75,000 for specialty crop projects. Grants will be awarded through a competitive process.
Specialty crops are defined as fruits, vegetables, tree nuts, dried fruit, horticulture and nursery crops, including floriculture.
Those who live or travel in Kentucky this summer probably will see purple prisms hanging at least 10 feet above the ground in ash trees. These prisms are traps for the Emerald Ash Borer, a destructive insect that was found in Kentucky during the summer of 2009.

Knowledge, in the interest of humanity?
This morning, I had the opportunity of viewing a fantastic sunrise, a symphony orchestra playing only for me. Now, you ask me these questions, the answers you say are "in the interest of humanity."
The sun is there not in my interest, nor in that of humanity but in its significance to the whole planet. I believe that I know the planet as a reality and the sun as less so. But what is humanity? My answers will be included in your thesis and you will then become a doctor of philosophy, also in the interest of humanity?
Shouldn't we then have some understanding of what humanity is? People, mankind, human race and to add more confusion, humanity today is referred to as civilization, ever changing in its sophistication, evolving, advancing into a realm we refer to as progress? How does that progress that humanity relate to that sun, that sunrise specifically for my mind to accept and consider?
My father and my mother and my grandfather and grandmother were part of this evolving humanity that will extend into the future with your recording of an interview of man who because he is in his tenth decade might be of some concern to and "in the interest of humanity."
Just as that sunrise was not only for me, my life is not in the interest of humanity nor is your interview, your Ph.D. nor mine necessarily in the interest of mankind an all-inclusive term. But it is in the urge of life to study and hopefully to determine who we are.
Your question, perhaps meant to shock, "do you believe in God" was a profound one but is one man's belief evidence of reality? Would the assertion of an old man give more certainty, truth or reality to a notion that might or may not be related to fact or to anything provable?

EAC maintains the National Mail Voter Registration Form, which voters can use to register to vote and update their registration information. The form is available in seven languages.
EAC also provides voter guides in 11 languages and a variety of links to helpful resources for voters relating to registration, military and overseas voting, accessibility, and volunteering as a poll worker.
HAVA mandates that EAC accredit voting system test laboratories and certify voting equipment, marking the first time the federal government has offered these services to the states.
EAC is committed to running the program in a transparent manner, releasing voting system test plans and reports for the public to review and posting detailed information about the voluntary voting system guidelines, program policies, and related correspondence.
One of EAC's top priorities is providing assistance to election officials. We do this by issuing guidance, advisories and best practices to help officials comply with the Help America Vote Act and make other election administration improvements and enhancements.
EAC administers federal funding to improve the administration of U.S. elections as authorized by the Help America Vote Act. The commission also manages discretionary, competitive grant programs authorized by HAVA, including the HAVA College Program to recruit college students to serve as poll workers and the HAVA Mock Election Program, which supports activities to educate secondary students in the electoral process.
EAC is responsible under the Help America Vote Act for collecting information about election administration issues and sharing that information with Congress, election officials and the public.
This section contains completed research and reports commissioned by EAC, information about EAC research in progress, and additional elections research issued by other organizations. Datasets are also available to download.
Voters can use the National Mail Voter Registration Form to register to vote, update registration information due to a change of name, make a change of address, or register with a political party.
The National Form also contains voter registration rules and regulations for each state and territory. For more information about registering to vote, contact your state election office. Read our Frequently Asked Questions for more information about the national form.
EAC streams a live webcast for all public meetings, which are archived and available for viewing 24-hours a day in our webcast archive.
Use the National Mail Voter Registration Form to register to vote, update your registration information with a new name or address, or register with a political party.

The Committee was established pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 15361, to act in the public interest to assist the Executive Director of the Election Assistance Commission in the development of the voluntary voting system guidelines. The Technical Guidelines Development Committee held their first plenary meeting on July 9, 2004. At this meeting, the Development Committee agreed to a resolution forming three working groups: (1) Human Factors & Privacy; (2) Security & Transparency; and (3) Core Requirements & Testing to gather information and public input on relevant issues. The information gathered by the working groups was analyzed at the second meeting of the Development Committee January 18 & 19, 2005. Resolutions were debated and adopted by the TGDC at the January plenary session. The resolutions defined technical work tasks for NIST that will assist the TGDC in developing recommendations for voluntary voting system guidelines. At the March 9, 2005 meeting, NIST scientists presented preliminary reports on technical work tasks defined in resolutions adopted at the January plenary meeting and adopted one additional resolution. The Development Committee will review a draft document of initial recommendations for voluntary voting system guidelines at the April 20th & 21st, 2005 meeting.

Sanchez is No. 26 in the NFL in passing yards (1,043) and No. 31 in passer rating (66.6), and he has thrown just six touchdown passes to go with six interceptions. His 48.4 completion percentage is dead last in the NFL.
Hey maybe it's me but it's obvious. He's played pretty bad football and I know... TRUST ME I know he's been put into an ugly situation. Mike Tannenbaum has FAILED this organization and it's fans. He has squandered hundreds of millions of dollars signing F.A's each off season. He has all but destroyed this entire team. He has FAILED on his investment with Sanchez. How can you possibily expect him to perform? look at the WR's and look at the fail of recognizing this postion succeeds only with CONTINUITY. Look at the WR's Sanchez has had?
2009 - Stuckey, Cotchery, B. Smith, Clowney, Keller
2010 - Braylon, Holmes, B. Smith, Turner, Keller
2011- Plaxico, Holmes, Kerely, Turner, Keller (not to mention one God awful decision to sign Derrick Mason)
2012- Holmes, Hill, Kerely, Schilens, Keller
This is the reason Mark Sanchez will likely fall. Mike Tannenbaum ruined his chances of developing.
Look around the league. All of the teams with a good or elite QBs KEEP the same WR's year in and year out. We get to 2 AFC championship games and what does he do? shuffles the roster up and expects the coaches to figure it out. He's done an absolutely piss poor job with this team in the last 4 years.
Sanchez will fall as a result, at this point it's inevitable. The team has no nucleus. Our superbowl window has came and gone. This team will have to tear down and reassemble and it can't happen soon enough.
I would continue but there has been so much fail I'm too tired and too sick of discussing it. It's bad folks.

Break them in
"These shoes have very nice treads. However, I have found that the rim of the shoes digs into my ankles slightly, in the front. Wearing them in should eliminate this problem but it makes them a little uncomfortable to start, which was unexpected. Beyond that they look good and the soles feel all right."

Applied Manufacturing Technologies, Bosch Rexroth sponsor LSSU robotics project
Applied Manufacturing Technologies (AMT), Orion, Mich., has sponsored the development of a vision-based robotic workcell as a senior project at Lake Superior State University (LSSU) in Sault Sainte Marie, Mich.
Designed by the students, with support and guidance from AMT's Jean-Pierre Rasaiah, the cell identifies and robotically packages consumer products from a moving conveyor. The workcell, which is based on a multiaxis workcell donated by Bosch Rexroth, Buchanan, Mich., includes a conveyor system and a motion logic controller. To help complete the project, AMT arranged the use of a Stubli RX60 robot and controller, a Cognex DVT Legend 520 SmartImage camera, and a Siemens HMI panel.
The LSSU robotic workcell is built on Rexroth's aluminum extrusion framework, employing a Bosch Rexroth VarioFlow conveyor system, an IndraMotion motion logic controller, IndraDrive servos, and IndraDyn motors to circulate the products through the cycle. The camera scans each product as it passes, while the program notifies the robot to retrieve a specific selection and drop it off the line to be packaged. Project parameters define a successful running cycle to continue for 10 hours with no more than one hour of recovery time. The completed workcell will be used as a training device for future students and AMT personnel.
AMT is a supplier of factory automation design, engineering, and process consulting services. Bosch Rexroth supplies components and systems for industrial and factory automation and mobile applications.

Strike King Greg Hackney Hack Attack Jig
The Strike King Greg Hackney Hack Attack Jig was born to fish extremely heavy cover. The unique head design and heavy weed guard combine to help the Hack Attack Jig navigate in and out of cover easily. Built around an exclusive Gamakatsu black nickel heavy wire hook for extra bite and a 30 degree line tie, you can load it up with the heaviest braid you have and pull as hard as you want and it won't bend or flex. The 30 degree angle of the line tie also creates a better hook-up ratio than any other jig on the market. Available in a variety of effective colors, the Strike King Hack Attack Jig has already helped Greg Hackney on tour and will help you get those heavy cover fish back to the boat.

Customer Reviews
Comments: I've been using this jig now for a couple years. This is definitely my favorite jig. I have no affiliation to SK, I'm just a working man who loves to fish. This jig is one of the best I've found for fishing in wood cover. It very rarely gets snagged and the hook is stout enough to get the fish out of the cover in a hurry. I have yet to straighten out a hook. I would recommend this jig to anyone needing a jig for heavy cover fishing.
From: Jordan: Illinois 2/7/17
Comments: This jig just goes to prove that you can take a super premium hook and mass produce it into a piece of crap. Just like most other Strike King jigs: paint chips easily, skirt collar melts off after one season, and the weed guard is either too stiff from too much glue or it falls out from not enough glue. With all the other quality products on the market from SK, especially their extensive line of soft plastics, you'd think that they'd want to improve the quality of their jigs. I'd pay twice as much for this jig if they just fix the issues mentioned.
From: Big J: Western NY 11/18/16
Comments: Basically, it is either this jig or a finesse jig for me now. Even on a MH rod I get perfect hooksets and it comes through cover great. I do notice the weed guard will eventually lose some stiffness & cause more hangups. I trim it slightly to stiffen it until I can't use it anymore. I like several trailers on these but the original Rage Craw is my go-to. I like the Sexy Craw & either Bama Craw or Summer Craw but keep black & blue with matching craw for really muddy conditions. In Feb I use the DB Craw for a more subtle action.
From: Larry: Charlotte, NC 7/13/16
Comments: Great I've caught some of my biggest bass flipping with these. I throw them in timber & heavy grass very rarely get snagged. I always have a good selection in my box.
From: Dan: PA 4/4/16
Comments: Amazing jig, caught my pb 10 lb bass with it, a rage tail menace grub with jjs magics bed fishing and the hook didnt bend a bit
From: K.K: NC 3/14/16
Comments: Solid jig. I prefer to build my own jigs, but if I had to buy one off the shelf, it'd be this one. Watch what Hackney does with a jig and you'll understand why you need one of these in your tackle box.
From: Adam: Nashville, TN 12/26/15
Comments: By far the best jigs to use in the finger lakes. Perfect hook sets every time. Casts with pinpoint accuracy with a 7'11" heavy rod or 7'6" extra heavy rod. Rigged with a rag craw, or biospwan vilecraw & I hook up 4-5 quite frequently. Again strike king has made another excellent jig since the bootlegger jig
Comments: My go-to flipping jig hands down! The hook on this jig is best one on the market,you set the hook hard & nothing will ever come off. I trim the skirts on mine to be level with hook and then put a little baby rage craw on the back and oh boy am I'm impressed, In Iowa and across the mid-west fall fishing can be extremely tough unlike the rest of the country,but these jigs battle against perfectly.
From: Samuel: IA 10/23/15
Comments: BEST JIG EVER MADE! Been putting the boots the the bucket mouths with the okeechobee craw paired with the bruiser baits okeechobee craw and blue craw paired with the yum craw papi bream color it matchs the molting craws here perfect and they just can't resist skirt just needs a very slight trim other then that these bad boys are ready to use straight out the gate super heavy hook have yet to see one open even a hair and slides through cover very well
From: Adam: Rice Lake, WI 6/21/15
Comments: got to throw it today, and lets just say, im very pleased. I paired it with a Berkley devil spear and I loved it. I got it as an all purpose jig, and it does everything well. it swims, hops, and ounches. where it really excels is punching. you don't need to rainbow this thing up high to get it to pop through, it just sinks in. hook does flex alittle, but under extreme pressure, more than a fish would put on it, and not enough to hurt hookups, so it does button up well. I used to hat jig fishing, but its now one of y favorite ways to fish, thanks to the advantage baits mat jig, and this hack attack jig
From: Matt: Plainfield, IL 5/16/15
Comments: This jig has won several tournaments for me, absolutely amazing jigs. 3/8 Black & Blue with 4" black and blue powerbait chigger craw, flat out catches fish!
From: Tim: MN 4/7/15
Comments: By far the best jig on the market. I fish almost exclusively with jigs, and this a good jig for heavy cover(timber or punching grass or mats). However, if one were to stock up and only have these in their tacklebox, you can swim it, hop it, drag it and any other type of jig technique with it. I've used it in place of a swim jig and a football head jig, and it excelled. The hook is no joke. I got in a piece of hardwood the other day, and with #65 braid, and a 7'6 flippin stick, I literally broke the outer side of hardwood off. Pulled it up expecting to see a bent hook, but to my disbelief it hadn't bent even a little. I honestly never lose fish with these. Set the hook and they aren't coming off. Best jig on the market.
From: Bob: AL 3/15/15
Comments: GREAT jig. I use it in saltwater exclusively. From the kelp beds for calicos to bottom dragging for sand bass, this thing gets it done. Hooked into a 22lb yellowtail while throwing it in open water and landed it with no hook bend!
From: Tanner: San Diego, CA 2/20/15
Comments: Great Jig overall. Strong hook and durable skirt. The paint begins to chip off after you drag it over a bunch of rocks but that's normal so. I would give this a 4 out of 5 stars.
From: Gabe: Lafayette, IN 1/29/15
Comments: I think my plano 700 series filled with these jigs either got stolen or flew out the boat when I was doing 70 :( over 100 dollars worth of hack attacks gone now I gotta replace them and they are all back ordered
From: Tom: NY 10/13/14
Comments: I have tried to stay away from main stream jigs the last few years - bought local, small lot, basement type jigs. After grabbing a few of these, Im sold. The hook on this jig is a sticker! Bait skips well and the weed guard is very close to perfect out of the box. 3/8 has worked well, but my only request would be for a 1/4. Really nice jig.
From: Ryan: WI 8/24/14
Comments: Great durable jig very nice hook wish they would offer a Black and Red color too many green pumpkin colors.
From: Bruce: AR
Comments: First cast with this black and blue jig and blue fleck chigger craw trailer and I hooked into my personal best 10lb bass in heavy structure. I was able to get a good hookset ,but the weedguard didn't give the jig a chance to get hung up. An overall good jig with a sturdy hook and good weed guard. (Also a nice color selection)
From: Cade: TX, USA
Comments: I bought one of these in my favorite rage craw color, put my favorite rage craw on as a trailer went out to my favorite pond. after 10 minutes I caught my first fish on this jig, a nice 5 pounder. a few minutes later caught my second bass, popped the jig out of its mouth and the weedgaurd fell off in my hand. very poor quality.
From: Stephen: MS
Comments: This is an awesome jig have great colors super strong and big hook only have had 2 flaws the weeed guard can be kind of stiff to start out but if you bend it around to loosen it up works great and the peints chips kinda easy but i havent had a jig the paint has't chipped on yet
From: Ryan: FL
Comments: love swimming this jig in gator craw color with a swimming caffeine shad on the back in KVD,s magic color.
From: Barrett: Easley South, SC
Comments: I only use this jig in 1 1/4 oz for punching for the hook. The hook on these WILL NOT bend no matter how hard you try. You could use these hooks for saltwater. However, this jig does have some drawbacks. They overdip it in the paint so about an 1/8 of the weedguard is covered in paint. I also noticed that the skirt material is more stiff and has less action than most silicone. The paint on the weedguard does make it a bit stiffer and it deforms the weedguard a bit. These jigs would be a better buy for $3. If you are using 1/4 oz to 3/4 oz jigs for flipping and pitching go for Dirty Jigs, Northstar Custom Baits, Gann's Performance Tackle, or Seibert Outdoors. Just my humble .02.
From: Cullen: Ashburn, VA
Comments: One of the best jigs money can buy. Extremely weedless, countless hits after tugging and popping through cover. Hook set will typically result in complete penetration through mouth,(or skull!). Jigs cast like a bullet and I have had quite a bit of success swimming these jigs back on the retrieve. I couple rage craws and Berkeley power slugs w/ these jigs. They have worked well enough, that I probably fish them when I should switch to send to something else. I really like these jigs, I also have noticed the paint issues that others have commented on and I have yet to catch a bass that noticed! 5 stars IMHO.
From: Eric: Tuscola, IL
Comments: Just cause the paint chips don't mean nothing
From: Colton: South Africa
Comments: best jig on the planet
From: Dave
Comments: Overall the jig is the best one on the market for any type of cover fishing. Hook will not bend, color selection is great, and it is definitely weedless. And as far as the paint chipping complaints that everyone has, if the jig was perfect there would be no need to buy anymore of the same jig. That's business. 5/5.
From: Dalton: WI
Comments: I got this jig this year, its great looking jig, Using it this summer. God bless guys and keep fishing forever!
From: Alex
Comments: Skirt needs to be changed out. Line tie is vertical instead of horizontal and is clogged with paint, paint chips easily. 2 out of 5 stars.
From: Benny: Lake Seminole
Comments: i like the new skirt colors, but yes......paint chips away easy. if fishing new out of the pack, line tie is almost always painted over, need to poke paint out, other than that, good jig, probably not worth 4 bucks though
From: Fresno, CA
Comments: Great jigs, but there is one flaw with them; the paint chip way easy. but other than that great jigs. Sharp hooks, long skirt, just great jigs 4/5 Thanks TW!
Comments: This is the best jig I ever had and it is very weedless. The color i had was the Okeechobee craw. pair this with a rage craw in same color. This will be a deadly weapon in your tackle box.
From: Matthew: Port Barre, LA
Comments: only jig ive every been able to punch with in south GA great job
Comments: awesome jig,best ever!!
From: MA
Comments: This Jig is the best on the market. It is absolutely awesome.
Comments: Simply the best jig that you can buy. i love it, best color is summer craw, match it with a rage chunk and you rip in some pigs
From: Matt: MN
Comments: i love these jigs they are awesome i caught a good bit of quility bass on a very heavy pressured lake on the black and blue with a berkley chigger craw. 1 and only 1 downside i can find and thats the paint chips easily.if it was more durable i wouldnt have a need for any other bait....4 out of 5 stars
Comments: Best Jig ive ever used! colors are great! Use a Yum Craw papi in green pumpkin on the back of the gator craw color and you wont be dissapointed
From: Matt: Corcoran, MN
Comments: Great jig, probably the best I've ever used. Solid hooksets everytime. The green pumpkin craw with a watermelon red double tail has been the ticket for me. It's worth the price for this quality of a jig.
From: Evan: Bossier City, LA
Comments: one of the best jigs strong hook and high quality jig head
From: Rafael: Florida
Comments: This jig is a BEAST. Great for pitching to hard wood cover or flippin pads. I love this jig. Put a Rage Craw on the back and hold on.
Comments: This is an excellent jig, made out of high quality components. This was also the first jig I've ever caught a bass on. Now the 3/8 oz. sexy craw color with a zoom ultravibe speed craw is my go to for flipping and pitching into grass.
From: Matt: Virginia, USA
Comments: Jig is a bit pricey, but of high quality. Does everything its supposed to, very nice colors, and excellent hook.
From: K.H.: New Jersey, USA

The fairgrounds in Castle Dale will be expanding in size soon. After several years in the works, Castle Dale City will purchase the old forest service house on Main Street along with the horse corral. This added property will allow Castle Dale City to offer further amenities to fair goers as well as to people using the park for company parties and family reunions and picnics. Another pavilion will be placed somewhere on the fairgrounds so two different groups can use the facility at the same time.
Castle Dale Mayor Neal Peacock is excited about the additional ground which will become available. Plans are underway to demolish the old house and garage. Mayor Peacock wants to preserve the trees that are growing on the new property. One large pine tree will have to be removed due to visibility issues along Main Street. The other trees will be maintained for shade.
Mayor Peacock said Castle Dale City will prepare an application to present to the Community Impact Board to get a grant for the fairground improvements including a stage and pavilion. "I envision a nice stage with dressing rooms and bathrooms. We want a permanent stage. When the military band came to town the present stage was too small for the band."
Mayor Peacock and county commissioners Jeff Horrocks, James Nelson and Laurie Pitchforth met on the fairgrounds to look for suitable locations for the pavilion and stage. No decisions were made at the time, but a number of options were considered including an underground amphitheater. The various options also included looking at the area where the least amount of noise from the Main Street would affect the stage area. The placement of the pavilion and stage will be crucial to keep noise down so the performers on stage can be heard.
The group also discussed problems with parking at the county fair in August. Mayor Peacock said parking was available at the rear of the rodeo arena where the cowboy participants park during the rodeo. This large area is available for parking during the fair, but it wasn't widely known among fair goers. Next year more emphasis will be placed on letting people know this large lot is available to park in during the fair.
Talk also centered around the possible relocation of one of the ball fields at the fairgrounds to near the cemetery so one of the ball fields at the fairgrounds could be turned into a parking area. Mayor Peacock said he would like to keep the ball fields easily accessible to youth on their bikes.
It was also mentioned during the meeting that a large permanent sign advertising local events would be a nice addition to the fairgrounds.
An entire upgrade of the electrical system at the fairgrounds is needed to accommodate vendors who use power at their booths.
Mayor Peacock said, "Castle Dale City is committed to make this (fairground improvements) happen."
Mayor Peacock asked for whatever help Emery County can give to make these improvements a reality. The commissioners said budget time is approaching and they will consider the matter during their budget sessions. They invited Mayor Peacock to present his ideas at commission meeting before budget time.
Castle Dale City has put a lot of money into upgrades for the fairgrounds. This season they built a stage and reroofed the current pavilion. During the fair the pavilion was filled to capacity at various events and fairgoers spilled out the sides of the pavilion onto the lawn.
Mayor Peacock said anyone wishing to make comments or suggestions for the improvements at the fairgrounds is welcome to contact him at Castle Dale City.

Predicting Corporate Governance Risk: Evidence from the Directors' and Officers' Liability Insurance Market
Tom Baker
University of Pennsylvania Law School
Sean J. Griffith
Fordham University School of Law
Chicago Law Review, Vol. 74, p. 487, 2007
This Article examines how liability insurers transmit and transform the content of corporate and securities law. D&O liability insurers are the financiers of shareholder litigation in the American legal system, paying on behalf of the corporation and its directors and officers when shareholders sue. The ability of the law to deter corporate actors thus depends upon the insurance intermediary. How, then, do insurers transmit and transform the content of corporate and securities law in underwriting D&O coverage? In this Article, we report the results of an empirical study of the D&O underwriting process. Drawing upon in-depth interviews with underwriters, actuaries, brokers, lawyers, and corporate risk managers, we find that insurers seek to price D&O policies according to the risk posed by each prospective insured and that underwriters focus on corporate governance in assessing risk. Our findings have important implications for several open issues in corporate and securities law. First, individual risk-rating may preserve the deterrence function of corporate and securities law by forcing worse-governed firms to pay higher D&O premiums than better-governed firms. Second, the importance of corporate governance in D&O underwriting provides evidence that the merits do matter in corporate and securities litigation. And third, our findings suggest that what matters in corporate governance are deep governance variables such as culture and character, rather than the formal governance structures that are typically studied. In addition, by joining the theoretical insights of economic analysis to sociological research methods, this Article provides a model for a new form of corporate and securities law scholarship that is both theoretically informed and empirically grounded.

If you could be one skater - pairs, singles, or dance. Who would you be? The list is just a few ideas, the skater you choose doesnt have to be off the list. Please have fun!
I would choose B&S for their beauty and speed over the ice.
So far, "other" seems to be leading the way. I would rather be Rudi Galindo, skating pairs with Kristi Yamaguchi!
I would love to be La Kween. It must be an amazing feeling to know that you have been that good in your chosen career to have won all of those titles!
I dunno... Yuka Sato who is an amazing singles and pairs skater... Jamie for that hot guy she skates with(for that matter how about Kyoko Ina or even better Sylvia Fontana)
if I were a guy it'd be hands down Kurt Browning...
I dunno too hard!
I would choose Janet Lynn. I haven't seen her skate very many times, but even other great skaters gush over her. She also seems quite genuine in interviews and seems to have made a good life for herself after skating.
One reason is I wouldn't want to be out there alone.
Grgranny, DEFINITELY!
Michelle Kwan, of course!
Sonja Henie! There has never been anyone else that has done so much for skating prior to or since her inception as the QUEEN.
Oh darn...I noticed that she WAS listed after I voted. Normally people say, "Sonja WHO?" Well, add another vote for Sonja!
Last edited by Glacierskater; 07-14-2004 at 04:53 AM.
Oh to be Jamie skating pairs and touring the country with David......hey, a girl can dream right?! LOL
I voted other. I'd want to be in the shoes of Anissina & Peizerat. A close second is Kurt Browning though. Can you imagine having those feet?
Michelle Kwans of course. Its great to be loved by so many with legends of fans esp. since its been a decade now.
I would like to be in the shoes of Ekaterina Gordeeva back in the G&G days. And now in Albena Denkova's shoes. Maxim
I'd like to be in Plushy's shoes and have a coach love and believe in me as much as Mishin does Plush. I think to be anointed the best from a coach like Mishin who has his pick of so many top athletes must be some heady stuff.
Isn't this just another version of the "who is your favorite skater" poll?

Girls Best Friend!Nothing feels better than a great hair day and now it seems like I have them every day! I am not one to spend tons of money on hair products but this was a good value and the reviews looked great. I'd have to say this is the single most important product in my life! It add so much life to my hair and saves me loads of time. I HIGHLY recommend this flat iron to everyone.

Fun, Quick And Cute!I bought this iron 2 weeks ago from my salon purely because of the price and the packaging. I've never heard of AbsolutHeat before but my stylist said it's great and they've been carrying them for a few months and have had a lot of great feedback.
So I gave it a try and was very shocked. It seriously heated up twice as fast as my old iron and flattened my naturally curly hair with just one pass. For $80.00 at my salon this was an excellent deal! I usually don't buy from online because I am impulsive and like to try things right away but folica does seem to have a much better price for these products. Anyway, bottom line it's an excellent value and a great product.May 14, 2013Melissa R. / DenverHAIR TYPECurly Hair

Never Will I Buy This Again....My mom is really into hair products and stuff, so a few weeks ago, she had me order this straightener from AbsolutHEAT for her. Neither one of us were very "experienced" in terms of knowing which brands were good and which brands weren't so good. So, we did a search based on the criteria that we were looking for the highest rated titanium straightener. Apparently, this search criteria wasn't very accurate because the straightener we purchased was far from "awesome." The item was packed well, so when I first opened the box, everything seemed to be in order. The next morning, my mom decided to try out her new straightener and it turned out to be a disaster. First of all, the pamphlet that comes with the straightener is very poorly designed in terms of the information listed is a bit hard to read, and important information (such as troubleshooting tips) were not listed. I am a freelance graphic designer, so from a professional perspective, the pamphlet was seriously lacking.
That aside, my mom plugged in the straighter and according to the sub-par pamphlet that came with the item, the product is supposed to take 30 seconds to heat up. This couldn't be more wrong. It took an astounding 10 minutes for the iron to get hot. Any ceramic straightener from Walmart heats up faster than that. Furthermore, the pamphlet states the LED light on the flat iron is supposed to turn blue when heated up. This was also incorrect. The LED light was orange, which kind of threw my mom and I off when trying to figure out why the iron wasn't heating up. Again, troubleshooting tips would have been helpful.
Another problem we experienced was with the temperature of the flat iron. You're supposed to be able to very easily set the temperature you want. This was also a nightmare because the temperature kept jumping around. For instance, we tried to set the straightener at 350, but then the temperature kept jumping around very rapidly from 200 to 450 and it wouldn't stop. Finally, after 45 minutes of trying to get this thing to work, my mom and I ultimately gave up trying to use it and just turned the item off. The only way we were to turn it off was to just unplug it because that button didn't work either.
All in all, my mom and I expected so much more from a $70 hair straightener. My mom ended up buying a titanium straighter from Walmart later on that day for less than half the price of what we paid for the AbsolutHEAT straightener (and it works extremely well!).

Absolutmust! My New Favorite Hair Straightener!I have used SO many different straightening irons. I never want to spend too much money on a hair styling tool of any kind, because i'm a bit clumsy and drop them a lot. I finally decided after buying 40.00 iron, after 40.00 iron that I was going to take a look around and see what was out there. My hairstylist recommended a CHI... but, I wasn't always happy with the CHI she used on me at her shop. It pulled on my hair at times and always took a few passes to get it straight enough for me. So, I saw this new AbsolutHEAT brand and decided to go with this one because it looked so sleek and high tech - and had all the features. It wasn't too much more than what I was already accustomed to paying, and i'm SO glad that I took the leap. I love it, my hair has never felt softer and had less tangles, its humid here in New Orleans and it only takes one pass usually with this iron and its super straight the entire day. I have semi-wavy hair, not enough to be pretty, just enough to irritate you. Trust me, order this and enjoy saving almost half the time you usually spend styling and much softer, easier to manage hair.Mar 19, 2013Bridget N. / New OrleansHAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Normal Hair

Sooo Much Better Then Solia!Okay I originally got this because I'm going to Scotland in a month and needed a dual voltage flat iron. When I tested it, to make sure it works, wasn't excepting to be wow'd, but it turned out to be amazing! It totally out performs the Solia that was my go to iron. With the Solia I got tugging on my hair, but with the AbsolutHEAT I get zero tugging. Just recently got a bob haircut and this flat iron keepd it looking fresh and neat.

Omg!My mom bought this iron for me for my birthday. I think she got tired of me spending wads of money on irons and never being totally happy. This AbsolutHeat iron is priced right and straightens my hair immediately. It leaves my hair shiny and sleek in no time. The plates float so I can curl my hair as well. There's a lot of power in this little iron and it comes with a lifetime guarantee. I have told all my girlfriends about it and they are all buying one.

Love It!This flat iron is great, it straightened my hair very quickly and it looked like I just walked out of the salon. It heats up immediately, has an auto shut off and the company backs it with a life time warranty which I have not see before, usually it's 1 year. I called the company to ask about it and the man I spoke to could not have been more informative and polite. They get an A for customer service and quality. This iron gives a lot of bang for the buck. Go for it, you will love it as much as I do.Dec 10, 2012Helene / IndianaHAIR TYPECurly Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno says the city is confident but continues to review safety procedures to ensure that schools remain safe. Sarno met with a team of school, public safety and health officials today (Monday) to discuss safety procedures in light of last week's school shooting in Connecticut. Sarno says the procedures are not a knee-jerk response to the events in Newtown, but part of an on-going, pro-active approach to keep students and teachers safe.
"So we wanted to send a message, God forbid this was to happen any other place or any other time, of reassurance. What we do day in day out… preventative. And what we would if God forbid if something occurs at this point in time."
Sarno was joined by School Superintendent Daniel Warwick who says a team of more than 20 police officers work daily inside the city's high schools, as well as middle and alternatives schools. He says following the Newtown incident, police patrols will also monitor elementary schools. And Warwick says more than a million dollars has been invested in recent years for security upgrades at all school buildings.
"There's a locking system, a buzz in system at every school. Cameras set inside and outside. So there's a lot of security steps that have been taken to make our kids as safe as possible."
Warwick says trained clinical counselors are also available in each school to deal with any issues facing students. But officials are also asking parents to be on the look out for changes in their children's behavior, such as difficulty concentrating or sleeping, or sleeping too much, the loss of energy or appetite or over-eating. They say those can be signs that children are having trouble coping and should be reported to the school department for assistance.

Troubled Spider-Man Musical's Biggest Fan Is Glenn Beck
Crazy old theater queen Glenn Beck was on his little radio program this morning talking about the creatively challenged but financially blessed Broadway Spider-Man musical and apparently he LOVED it. Like "this is history of Broadway being made" loved it.
Yeah he really, really liked it. He said on his show, via NYT:
After you couldn't get a ticket to 'Spider-Man' and you've offered a kidney for it, go see 'Wicked.' I mean, you've got two kidneys. Don't give both kidneys up - go see 'Wicked' before you give both kidneys. But give a kidney to go see 'Spider-Man.' I'm telling you, mark my words, it's being panned right now, nobody's saying good stuff about it. I'm telling you, you go buy your ticket - you buy your ticket now, if you're thinking about coming to New York, because when this thing opens and it's starting to run, you will not be able to get tickets to this for a year. This is one of those shows, this is the 'Phantom' of the 21st century. This is history of Broadway being made. I sat next to the casting director, by chance, and I said, 'You, sir, are part of history.'
That is quite a review! And of course Beck went on to say, while affecting a snooty French accent, that people who don't like it are just elitist snobs, but that people from Nebraska who "won't understand" that snobbery will totes love the show. Partly because it's poking fun at terrible atheist global warming fanatics, or something. Listen to his well-reasoned theatre critique below and imagine how conflicted Julie Taymor and company must feel. On the one hand, yay praise and endorsement. On the other, Glenn Beck.

Equine Portrait - White Horse In Mullaghmore
