The Lions survived a monumental second-half implosion to recover and snatch a 37-32 win over the Rebels in Jo'burg on Saturday.
The Lions survived a monumental second-half implosion to recover and snatch a 37-32 Super Rugby win over the Rebels in Johannesburg on Saturday.
The Lions led 24-0 in the closing stages of the first half yet found themselves trailing by five points with seven minutes left on the clock.
But a late try from replacement Jaco Kriel saved the hosts' blushes and secured just their third win of the season.
The result also means the Lions could still avoid finishing last in the overall standings as they now trail the Western Force by only two points.
The Lions were 24-7 ahead at half time thanks to an early try from Waylon Murray and a brace from Derick Minnie but the Rebels came roaring back via tries from Ged Robinson, James Hilgendorf and two from Hugh Pyle.
Kriel's 74th-minute winner denied the Australian side a memorable win however while Elton Jantjies added 20 points with the boot.
The Lions finish their season with a local derby against Bulls in Pretoria next weekend while the Rebels must head to Cape Town to face the Stormers.
The home side raced to a 17-0 lead by the end of first quarter. It took less than two minutes for centre Murray to bag the opening score when he burst clear thanks to a break and offload from Lionel Mapoe.
Minnie added a second try on the ten-minute mark when he crashed over from short range. Jantjies converted both tries and added a penalty as the Lions cruised into a healthy lead.
The visitors had hardly threatened to get on the scoreboard and looked down and out after Minnie broke off a maul to charge over for his second try with the interval looming. Jantjies added the extras to stretch the lead to 24 unanswered points.
The Rebels had the final say of the first period though as Robinson touched down in the middle of a rolling maul on the stroke of half time. Julian Huxley's conversion cut the gap to 14 points as the teams headed for the changing rooms.
The wheels came off the Lions' bus in the second period and their lead vanished after Pyle scored twice in the space of three minutes.
Hilgendorf charged down Jantjies in the 64th minute and the TMO reckoned he grounded the ball correctly, to the disgust of the home ground. Huxley's conversion, incredibly, gave the Rebels the lead which the full-back extended a few minutes later with a penalty.
With time running out, Kriel bolted down the blindside touchline to score and make matters all square.
Jantjies landed the touchline conversion and an 80th-minute penalty to save the day for the home side.
The scorers:
For Lions:
Tries: Murray, Minnie 2, Kriel
Cons: Jantjies 4
Pens: Jantjies 3
For Rebels:
Tries: Robinson, Pyle 2, Hilgendorf
Cons: Huxley 3

Water is the essence of life - too little and we die, too much and we drown. The same is true for the plants and grasses in our gardens and lawns. While there is not much chance now of over-watering, almost all of the United States is concerned with how to water our properties conservatively and effectively, since much of the of the country remains gripped by drought. Persistent low rainfall coupled with a warm winter is meaning water restrictions in over 20 states.
Between December and February the mean temperature for the lower 48 states was the fifth lowest since records started being kept in the late 1800s. Rainfall was the lowest on record in the eastern states from Florida to Maine as drought spread as far west as Wisconsin, Iowa and South Dakota.
Alt=drought resistant grassesDemand for water is greatest during the warmer months, and in some areas of country, the drought may worsen, meaning more demand for cautious drought resistant landscaping.
Fortunately, the drought problem is being looked at in a big way from government agencies to criminologists. There are lots of new tools, tips and training available which will help our half empty glass of water seem like more than enough.
It is best to check with local authorities about watering restrictions in your area, but unless there is a total ban imposed, it is still possible to plan and plant if you use some common sense approaches. With a little care and common sense to drought resistant landscaping, gardens and lawns can still look both pleasant and green.
According to one source, organic compost is the bottom line in helping conserve water and, yet, still have gorgeous plants. The source states that since water evaporates rapidly from containers, compost will act like a sponge and hold onto the water. The compost helps to keep the soil cooler on hot days, preventing evaporation of the much needed water.
Another way to prevent draining precious resources is to learn which plants grow best in the climate you live in. If you live in a naturally dry climate, maybe it is time to think about giving up that expansive lawn since in many parts of the country, half the water used by homeowners goes to maintaining their landscape.
Alt=drought resistant landscapingA growing movement towards sensible planting which is being adopted by many environmental and agricultural agencies is Xeriscape [1]. This form of concentrated and low water gardening was developed in Colorado where water supplies are not taken for granted. Xeriscape takes it name from the Greek word 'xeros' meaning 'dry'. Xeriscape is about making sensible plans for your lawn and garden that will not run the local reservoir dry, thus creating a drought resistant landscape.
For those who have a taste, and the budget, for fancier gadgets, there is the Davis Instruments' portable, solar-powered wireless Vantage Pro weather station [2]. This tiny weather pro measures barometric pressure, inside and outside temperatures, humidity, heat index, dew point, rainfall, rain rate, wind direction and speed, and wind chill.
The battery-operated LCD console gives a detailed forecast message that shows whether unseasonable or unusual weather conditions are likely to occur. With this kind of detailed information coming right from your own backyard, you can accurately gauge how little or much water plants, lawn and flowers will need.
The most potentially effective tool, or the most dangerous, remains the garden hose. However, most people do not have the patience, time or "eye" to measure what is being applied across larger areas of lawn when using a hand-held hose and spray nozzle.
Although it can be irresistible to spray your neighbors dog, cat or kids with a garden hose, soaker hoses, which are laid along, or slightly buried in the ground, are growing in popularity because they do the job of watering properly.
These hoses have thousands of tiny holes, which allow water to seep slowly and deeply into the soil where it will encourage deep root growth and slow evaporation. Reasonably priced models can cost about $12 for a 25-ft. length of 5/8-in. diameter hose.
Alt=drought resistant landscapingBut how do you know when to water? A soil probe, like a screwdriver, can be used to determine how dry your lawn or garden is. If the probe can be pushed into the soil easily, it is moist. But if it takes a lot of pressure to push the probe in, it is probably time to water. Again, infrequently but effectively is best.
Although drought restrictions vary from area to area, the following common sense practices can be widely applied and will help keep lawns and gardens drought free and looking their best:

Situated east of the Fiji Islands in the South Pacific, Tonga (also called the Friendly Islands) consists of some 150 islands, of which 36 are inhabited. Most of the islands contain active volcanic craters; others are coral atolls.
Hereditary constitutional monarchy.
Polynesians have lived on Tonga for at least 3,000 years. The Dutch were the first to explore the islands, landing on Tafahi in 1616. British explorer James Cook landed on islands in 1773 and 1777 and dubbed them the Friendly Islands. The current royal dynasty of Tonga was founded in 1831 by Taufa'ahau Tupou, who took the name George I. He consolidated the kingdom by conquest and in 1875 granted a constitution. In 1900, his great-grandson, George II, signed a treaty of friendship with Britain, and the country became a British protected state. The treaty was revised in 1959. Tonga became independent on June 4, 1970.
The government is largely controlled by the king, his nominees, and a small group of hereditary nobles. In the 1990s a movement began aimed at curtailing the powers of the monarchy, and the Tongan Pro-Democracy Movement (TPDM) has continued to gain in popular support. In 1999, Tonga gained UN membership.
The king's official court jester, American Jesse Bogdonoff, a former salesman of magnets to relieve back pain, was sued by the government in 2002 for squandering $26 million of Tonga's money (40% of its annual revenue) in unsound investment schemes. In 2004, he agreed to pay a $1 million settlement.
The king grew increasingly authoritarian and has curtailed press freedom. In 2005, 3,000 civil servants went on strike, demanding better pay. Throughout 2005, discontent with economic and social inequities intensified throughout the kingdom. As a result, Prince 'Ulukalala Lavaka Ata resigned as prime minister in Feb. 2006. The following month pro-democracy leader Feleti Sevele became the first elected commoner to serve as the country's prime minister. In Aug. 2006, the king died and was replaced by his son, George Tupou V.
In a 14–12 vote, Tu'ivakano was elected prime minister over 'Akilisi Pohiva and was sworn in on Dec. 22, 2010.
On March 18, 2012, King George Tupou V died. After his death, his younger brother, ʻAhoʻeitu ʻUnuakiʻotonga Tukuʻaho Tupou VI, became King of Tonga as Tupou VI.
On Dec. 30, 2014, ʻAkilisi Pohiva succeeded Tu'ivakano as prime minister. The leader of the Democratic Party of the Friendly Islands, Pohiva became the first commoner to be elected prime minister. He won with a vote of 15 over Samiu Vaipulu who received 11 votes.

St. Paul's Letter to the Galatians 4:28-31; 5:1-10
Prokeimenon. Mode 4.
Psalm 103.4,1
Who makes his angels spirits and his ministers a flame of fire
Verse: Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God you are very great.
BRETHREN, we, like Isaac, are children of promise. But as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now. But what does the scripture say? "Cast out the slave and her son; for the son of the slave shall not inherit with the son of the free woman." So, brethren, we are not children of the slave but of the free woman. For freedom Christ has set us free; stand fast therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. Now I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you. I testify again to every man who receives circumcision that he is bound to keep the whole law. You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace. For through the Spirit, by faith, we wait for the hope of righteousness. For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love. You were running well; who hindered you from obeying the truth? This persuasion is not from him who calls you. A little leaven leavens the whole lump. I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine; and he who is troubling you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.

Chicago—Lawyers from Dentons' Environmental practice have secured approval from the American Carbon Registry (ACR) for a unique methodology to measure carbon offsets used by manufacturers of polyurethane foam. The methodology is designed to provide incentives to use low-Global Warming Potential (GWP) blowing agents during the manufacturing process. The co-creator of the approved methodology, "Emission Reduction Measurement and Monitoring for the Transition to Advanced Formulation Blowing Agents in Foam Manufacturing and Use," is Foam Supplies, Inc. who created the patented technology.
Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are commonly used foam blowing agents in the manufacture of foams used in refrigerators and freezers, in industrial refrigeration systems and refrigerated transport, in marine applications such as boats and buoys, and in heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems.
HFCs are considered short-lived climate pollutants and also one of the fastest growing sources of GHG emissions globally. Mitigating emissions of HFC is important for limiting near term climate impacts. Alternatives to these HFC-based blowing agents are available but are not commonly used in certain segments of the foam manufacturing industry due to cost and other challenges to adoption.
"ACR's approval of this methodology is an important step to reward early action and facilitate meaningful and significant reductions in emissions from HFCs in foam blowing agents," said Jeff Fort, partner at Dentons. "We applaud the concerted effort between our attorneys and the Foam Supplies, Inc. team in creating a valuable tool that will help improve the climate."
The methodology is intended to provide access to carbon finance to increase uptake of available advanced technologies and accelerate a transition to low-GWP blowing agents in these sectors more rapidly than would otherwise occur. Currently, this methodology presents a low-cost approach to reducing greenhouse gases.

For the tomato-onion salsa
Preheat the grill to high.
Make the salse simply by combining all the ingredients in a nonreactive serving bowl and make sure to taste-test for enough salt, pepper, and lime juice.
Combine the olive oil, garlic and spices and rub liberally all over the tenderloin.
The tenderloin is best cooked on a spit (rotisserie) over high heat for 25-30 minutes for rare (internal temp of 125 degrees); 35-40 for medium rare (internal temp of 145). If you don't have a spit, cook the tenderloin for about 5 minutes on each side until well-browned, then turn the burner under the meat down to medium or low and cook, turning every 3-5 minutes, until you reach your desired internal temp.
To serve Brazilian Style, bring the tenderloin whole to the table and slice the desired portion onto each eater's plate...Of course, Dad first.
Enjoy and have a Happy Father's Day!

From the legendary author of Things Fall Apart comes a long-awaited memoir about coming of age with a fragile new nation, then watching it torn asunder in a tragic civil war.
The defining experience of Chinua Achebe's life was the Nigerian civil war, also known as the Biafran War, of 1967-1970. The conflict was infamous for its savage impact on the Biafran people, Chinua Achebe's people, many of whom were starved to death after the Nigerian government blockaded their borders. By then, Chinua Achebe was already a world-renowned novelist, with a young family to protect. He took the Biafran side in the conflict and served his government as a roving cultural ambassador, from which vantage he absorbed the war's full horror. Immediately after, Achebe took refuge in an academic post in the United States, and for more than 40 years he has maintained a considered silence on the events of those terrible years, addressing them only obliquely through his poetry. Now, decades in the making, comes a towering reckoning with one of modern Africa's most fateful events, from a writer whose words and courage have left an enduring stamp on world literature.
Achebe masterfully relates his experience, both as he lived it and how he has come to understand it. He begins his story with Nigeria's birth pangs and the story of his own upbringing as a man and as a writer so that we might come to understand the country's promise, which turned to horror when the hot winds of hatred began to stir. To read There Was a Country is to be powerfully reminded that artists have a particular obligation, especially during a time of war. All writers, Achebe argues, should be committed writers - they should speak for their history, their beliefs, and their people.
Marrying history and memoir, poetry and prose, There Was a Country is a distillation of vivid firsthand observation and 40 years of research and reflection. Wise, humane, and authoritative, it will stand as definitive and reinforce Achebe's place as one of the most vital literary and moral voices of our age.

"The Audible Edition Is a Disaster"
Mr. Akinnuoye-Agbaje, a non-Igbo speaker who simply happens to be of Nigerian-descent, manages to mispronounce every Igbo word in the book, making it a particularly painful experience to listen to his reading. It wouldn't have required much to learn how to pronounce these words properly, without which their meanings are lost. I'll be exploring the possibility of getting my money back. There's no imaginable reason why an Igbo speaker could not have been recruited to read this book for Audible. That this was not the case is simply inexcusable.
His pronunciation of Igbo words are embarrassingly silly, to put it mildly.
I own both the British and American hardback editions, so, of course, i think the book is brilliant. But I could not suffer through the very first few minutes of the reader's performance.
Audible should withdraw this disaster, and have a native speaker of Achebe's language read the book.
"Tell your story."
The narrator didn't do justice to the pronunciation of the Igbo words but apart from that it was good. There were funny moments but it is indeed a serious story and I got a message from it. My most memorable moment was when the reader read about the triumph of the written word and this book did triumph for me in that sense.
"Great read"
I really liked the book. it provides great insight into post colonial Nigeria. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in understanding Nigerian political history.
"Very informative entertaining story!"
I loved the level of detail of the book while maintaining its ease of reading.
The narrator seemed not to be well-prepared to handle this novel. He pronounced every single name of person and place, but for one or two, inaccurately. Even the author's name wrong. Both times. Unfortunately, this takes away from the quality of the performance for those who have heard the names before, and is misleading for those who haven't.
What country will there be?
"Great book for every Nigerian"
As a young Nigerian with a lot of questions why the country had depleted culturally and economically to the level which we find ourselves today, this book exposes some very important facts in history that helps one comprehend where things went southward, it would also probably help we the future/ unborn generations identify this thorns and avert it repeating itself in future.
Geat Book!!!!
Chris Okigbo
"Good Read"
Great book if you are interested in Nigerian history and the history of the igbo nation.
"A mockery of a person that speaks igbo"
The narrator did not in opinion did not consult an igbo speaking person to learn the words pronunciation in the content of a well beautiful writing by a renowned brilliant writer Chinua Achebe. It makes me angry to listen to the book demolished by the narrator. Please for the sake of the heroic writer find someone to re-narrate the book. For a person like me who is from the village and town its annoying. Please forgive me passion the may be prejudicial on the review.
Thank you
"the narrator was terrible"
I love the book the narration was terrible. i would rather buy the book and read.
"Very interesting, but maybe biased?"
I remember hearing about the tragic Biafran war many years ago, but have never had the opportunity to hear how it unfolded in any detail. This account, excellently narrated, tells one side of the story from the perspective of a highly respected author (rightly so). I found myself, however, wondering about how successful Achebe has been at distancing himself from a particular point of view and evaluation of events. Not that it is possible, or even desirable, to achieve complete detachment. But I was left with a sense that what I had heard needed to be supplemented by other voices and other perspectives.
New Englander Living in Latin America
"Wonderful, Moving Experience"
I would listen again simply to be bathed in the beautiful narrative voice of Adewale Akinnoye-Agbaje.
My favorite character was obviously the author, Chinua Achebe.
I loved the rich voice of Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje with his Beautiful African accent. It made me feel like Mr. Achebe was personally telling me the story. It made it a much stronger experience than simply reading the words.
The overall experience of listening to this account of the history of Biafra and Nigeria was moving in itself. Chinua Achebe's style of writing in the verbal history tradition was perfectly executed. As much as I love to read, the Audio version was a much more memorable, touching experience.
1) When the narrator has the accent of the writer, it makes the experience of listening seem as if the author is telling you the story personally. The choice of Adewale was perfect: beautiful voice and beautiful pronunciation.2) I'd like to know how my husband (Native Russian speaker, fluent in Spanish) and I (native US speaker and also fluent in Spanish) can participate in reading books for Amazon Audio.Bravo! This was my first audio book and you've completely hooked me!

PHP Unconference Europe announced
Sunday, October 3. 2010
What is it with me? Haven't blogged in over a year and whenever I do blog, it always seems to be about those darn unconferences. There really must be something to them, right? Right?
Well, if you've always been intruiged by the raving reviews the PHP Unconference in Hamburg, Germany is getting (which took place again just last weekend, and, again, was a blast), but were put off by the fact that it's in Germany, which is far, far away and people might not speak English and eat only Sauerkraut, wear Lederhosen and are overall silly (hint: only the last part is true), then now is your chance to experience the unconfence spirit in a more international setting:
The PHP Unconference Europe is scheduled to take place in Manchester on February 19/20, 2011
These unconferences are entirely community-driven, noncommercial events and have become kind of a family meeting of the PHP development scene in Germany. I hope the same can be achieved Europe-wide. Mind you, the number of tickets will be limited, though!
Jakob Westhoff was kind enough to provide a small write-up of his impressions of last weekend's unconference in Hamburg. If you've ever wondered how an unconference works or why you should go, this will give you a great overview.
I'm really looking forward to the Manchester unconference and meeting a lot of new folks!

Finding a date for the next Unconference
Thursday, February 5. 2009
Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to announce... nothing quite yet
The last two unconferences in Hamburg have been a huge success, which has become somewhat problematic. The first unconference saw about 60-80 attendees, while the second one already clocked in at around 120 - and that's just because that was the number where we pulled the plug and couldn't accept any more registrations.
That in itself is, of course, a Good Thing(tm), as we've reached our goal to make the whole thing into an enjoyable experience. Unfortunately, it also showed us the limits of our current venue: More than 120 people would be hard to accomodate at the local University's Informatikum.
The good news
So the good news is: There will be another unconference in Hamburg in 2009! This time we'll try to organize a venue that will allow us to get a few more people in, so we don't have to leave too many people standing outside in the street, right in the pouring rain, crying, freezing, bumping their bloody fists against the door... yeah, okay, I may be exaggerating. A little. Ahem. Anyway...
The bad news (and question for the audience)
The bad news is: We're highly unlikely (okay, now I'm understating ) to make it for the usual April/May date this time. Sorry, folks. Thus, we're now aiming for mid-September, and we've pre-picked two possible dates we'd like to hear your opinion on:

'X Factor' winner Stevens signs record deal
Published: Tuesday, January 15, 2013 at 6:32 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 15, 2013 at 6:32 p.m.
NASHVILLE — "The X Factor" champ Tate Stevens has signed a record deal.
A Tuesday news release says the Season 2 winner signed a deal with Syco Music/RCA Records Nashville and is already writing and recording his major-label debut.
The 37-year-old Stevens, of Belton, Mo., won "The X Factor" last month, earning the title by never finishing worse than second in voting on Simon Cowell's reality singing contest show.
The untitled new album will be released later this fall. Syco Music is Cowell's label.

Skip to comments.$10, cell phone and a bullet to head
Posted on 12/28/2012 6:40:24 AM PST by Anila
People who say racial violence is random either do not know what the word means, or they are not telling the truth.
The latest random attack that wasnt random happened earlier this month in downtown Wilmington, N.C.
Four black people decided they needed some money for marijuana and travel, so they decided to look for a white person in a good neighborhood (because) theyre bound to have money lying around, said one of the suspected killers to the Wilmington Star News.
They tried to break into a home but ran away after they discovered someone was there. So they moved to the downtown area, where three of the group followed a woman for several blocks while the fourth trailed in their getaway car.
Such attacks are part of an epidemic of hundreds of cases of black mob violence in more than 80 cities over the last three years, as documented in the book White Girl Bleed a Lot: The return of racial violence to America and how the media ignore it.

Do we need to ban young black males?
So, you think there's nothing to it?
Very Careful? As in pack heat wherever you go?
I am willing to share with whomever. Corbon baby, Corbon.
a black guy whacked into me hard at the grocery store and went right on not even stopping to say excuse me which made me know it was deliberate
If you are too White Guilt Liberal to realize that many blacks are racists...you are a major part of the problem
You are correct. We ignore this at our peril.
We may soon be fully engaged in a war in which the color of your skin will be your uniform.
Bump so I can title search that book on my home computer.
Why the left wants to seize guns from honest, law-abiding people and deliberately leave them in the hands of criminals.
So the "downtrodden oppressed underclass" can just waltz right in and take what is "rightfully" theirs from those "evil oppressor" hard-working honest non-violent people.
Ban blacks from owning guns and have a mandatory nationwide curfew for them at 10pm.
Oh, that won't work?
They always run in packs, don't they. This is exactly why we need high capacity magazines. No room for warning shots.
I'm a whiter than white guy with a black son in law. I have zero problems with people because they are a different skin tome.
But I'll be damned if I ignore the reality that a percentage of another skin tone wants mine dead simply for historical grievances that I personally had nothing to do with. Nor will I hesitate in defending myself from same should it ever come to that.
I believe you are wrong.
The color of the skin is not important.
There are many whites worse than blacks ,and skin coplor is only skin deep.
Liberalism will be what needs to be destroyed, and they dont wear uniforms.However they will be found cowering behind the real fighters.
Thanks for sharing the news the Lame Stream Media refuses to report.
Be on your guard and be prepared. The only person standing between you and mayhem or death is YOU.
A nephew was jumped by 5-6 blks in Boston a month back, while near Cambridge outside an eatery. They beat his head off the street giving him a double skull fracture, nephew was a big kid, super weight lifter, played on travel teams all through school, no wimp. He was in hospital 2 weeks, home with bad headaches. I remember telling him he better get his concealed carry a couple years back; and believe me when it happens to your own; you start thinking about it. I'm just thankful I don't live within 200 miles of any Afris; life is so much better just being armed seasonally for bear.
What really weighs on me is that when it comes apart, many good black people are going to be in a no-mans land.
Rejected by one side out of fear/uncertainty and the other branding them race traitors.
Simply for wanting to live the MLK vision.
I agree; we'd better be careful.
Of our black population, 96% of them just proved that they are unfit to live in a free society; that they'll vote to steal away the fruits of others' labors, so they themselves can continue to live like feral animals. They voted for an anti-American communist. They voted for the continued destruction of the USA. These people are an ongoing danger to civilization.
The four percent of our black population who voted and campaigned against Obama demonstrated amazing courage and patriotism. We will likely NOT see this four percent out stalking victims for easy takings.
What's 96% divided by 47%? (About 2 to 1, methinks. Whatever that means --) /sarc
Zackly. That's why I changed my primary carry weapon. Used to be a revolver but I'm afraid to limit myself to six shots.
Every law abiding gun owner in this country better take a stand, if and when the political scumbags try to disarm us. If we don't all stand together we will fall like dominoes. Too many Americans have become complacent when it comes to government intrusion.
It's more than just seizing guns. The demolition of group housing in centralized locations for ward of the state families, and their distribution outside of central cities served to sprinkle troublemakers into otherwise stable neighborhoods. More delinquents moved demands for more policing. Plus there's the added benefit that the crime-causing class is almost universally supportive of democrats. Diluting conservative areas surrounding liberal cities served to extend the liberal reach into independent areas.
No can do. They are a protected species. Like the Snail Darter or some lizards and frogs.
Although I do think that if you shoot one or two, the others start running.
It ain't racism, it's retribution. /s
If his generation passed it on to his kids and they onto theirs as the absolute truth, and they could not see that black people were able to educated themselves like Clarence Thomas, Connie Rice etc, then violence would come natural.
I know they are still passing on garbage information to the younger ones. After Katrina hit NO I had a young black man installing a new dishwasher at my house and he calmly informed that the levees were bombed so that more black would be drowned. He truly believed that because his elders had told him so.
It was for Trayvon, don-cha-know...
"Im a whiter than white guy with a black son in law. I have zero problems with people because they are a different skin tome.
But Ill be damned if I ignore the reality that a percentage of another skin tone wants mine dead simply for historical grievances that I personally had nothing to do with. Nor will I hesitate in defending myself from same should it ever come to that."
Yours is the money comment here this morning. But the fact of the matter is that thanks to the Jacksons and Sharptons and our "black" president, the Black's are seething with anger. With few exceptions, they have completely failed to integrate into the society here. They can't seem to come to grips with their own failures as human beings. We are long past the point where "slavery" is an "issue." The one's that are lucky enough to live in America should be thanking their lucky stars they are here. Someone with money should start offering one way tickets back to their "roots" in exchange for their renouncing their citizenship. There's a mud hut waiting for each of them when they arrive "home." Reverend Manning has it figured out completely!
Well said.
I live in Mississippi & there is no worse racism than that of angry black women towards white women. I am very polite & have gone into Wal-Mart & have been treated as if I have 666 scawled on my forehead. I have wonderful relationships w/ the women I work w/ who are majority black.
There is a group out there that has a HUGE hatred of white women. It's just bizarre. It used to make me feel quilty ( see my tagline!, but now I just feel ticked off when it happens.
Thank you both.
If you knwe me, I am the posterboy for Redneck. Tobbacco chewing, mountain born, truck loving hick with a love of Basset hounds and a VERY blond daughter.
And I'll bet a lot of us fit parts of that description.
And I'll also bet none of us are ready to 'git a rope' unless the person hanging from it did something a bit worse than absorbing more light than us. Regardless of his color.
But thanks to the Lib indoctrination, most non-white 'can't' believe that. Because if they allow themselves to accept that we don't 'hate' them any more than anyone else (white or not) who actually deserves it, the entire construct of the left, and their lifelong belief would collapse.
Thus it's easier to keep the lie going rather than face the truth. And unfortunately, many do.
Answer: "White bitches be stealin our men".
That's the root of it. Quote, unquote. My daughter gets it constantly. Fortunately she's a USAF Sgt./Iraq vet and has no problem 'handling it'.
No, just the ones who's goal in life is to be labeled Obama's sons.
It breaks my heart to see the poor quality of education some of these children have received. They have been socially promoted, indoctrinated, and 'entitled' into a situation where many of them are virtually unemployable. Most plan to go to college, which will no doubt be supported by government grants. It's truly a scandal. Those with good family support have the best hope.
I'm glad I'm out of there, but I expect that many of my former students will end up in the news either as crime victims or perpetrators. The crime is widespread, and its not just black on white. The nicer minority kids are preyed upon by the gangs. Over 10% of my students were jumped on the way home from school just from September through Christmas. That's a horrible statistic.
It's not only the Negros, you get the same treatment from some Muzzies!!!
Here we go again? Only because it happened again. Be careful of what? Telling the truth?
The color of the skin is not important.
However, when racists define skin colors into competing and oppositional forces, skin color takes on meaning to those who fall for the racist lies.
Blacks are falling for the socialist race lies now more than they were ten years ago. They are seeing whites as their enemy race and they are attacking whites in race hate mobs. Black racism is as deadly as any other racism.
Statistically, "young black males" are far more dangerous than gun owners. But that doesn't fit the narrative.
PowR-Ball by Corbon is good stuff!
"The demolition of group housing in centralized locations for ward of the state families, and their distribution outside of central cities served to sprinkle troublemakers into otherwise stable neighborhoods."
Good point.
Maybe those huge, monolithic structures like Cabrini Green weren't such a bad idea, after all ??
This is but one reason to never leave your house unarmed!
"Black racism is as deadly as any other racism."
Black racism is MORE deadly THAN ANY other FORM OF racism.
And the reason is because the media ignore it, and only trot out racism against Blacks.
Most Americans have no idea how pervasive Black Racism is in America.
Cor-bon .45cal ACP, 230gr +P JHPs.
tell that to the gangs of black hoodlums regularly targeting whites
In the UK, they wouldn't have had to run away because they would have known the occupants weren't armed.
Never had a jam in either of my 5" Kimbers, w/ any HP ammo after 5k rounds, but the Cor-Bon Pow'R Ball ammo is sweet. If your handgun won't reliably feed HPs, that's a hardware problem which need immediate fixing.

How Private DNA Data Led Idaho Cops on a Wild Goose Chase and Linked an Innocent Man to a 20-year-old Murder Case
Privacy Biometrics Genetic Information Privacy Mandatory National IDs and Biometric Databases Transparency
The New Orleans Advocate recently published a shocking story that details the very real threats to privacy and civil liberties posed by law enforcement access to private genetic databases and familial DNA searching.
In 1996, a young woman named Angie Dodge was murdered in her apartment in a small town in Idaho. Although the police collected DNA from semen left at the crime scene, they haven't been able to match the DNA to existing profiles in any criminal database, and the murder has never been solved.

DNA can reveal an extraordinary amount of private information about you, including familial relationships, medical history, predisposition for disease, and possibly even behavioral tendencies and sexual orientation.

Cute Boot, Strange Fit
"This boot is super cute in person. The back zippers are difficult to zip up but I loved how they looked. In addition, the tops stick out to one side when they boots are on, which looked strange. I'm bummed that I have to return them."

Very Stiff
"I love the style and look of these boots, but they're very stiff and narrow on my foot. I ordered the size 9, that's what I generally wear in boots. No cushion inside. One of the studs had already fallen off when I opended the box. Sadly will be returning. I wish someone would copy this design with a softer leather. Order a size up if you want to try them."

A consumer snaps a picture of her card and data is input automatically.
Bill Siwicki
One of the biggest points of friction in the process of mobile commerce is entering information during checkout. A typical credit card entry requires 16 taps for numbers and two taps for expiration date.
Travelocity is taking the pain out of that pain point in its new app, Hotel Deals by lastminute.com. During checkout, a consumer can enter her credit card information by hand, or, she can touch the Auto-Scan Credit Card With Camera button, line up the face of her card in her smartphone camera sites, and snap a picture. The app, through the Netswipe system from payment and identification technology vendor Jumio, recognizes the numbers and date and automatically enters the information for the consumer.
The payment technology is in line with the goal of the app, which is to book a hotel room for a period of time starting within the next two days at a location geographically very near to the consumer in as short a time as possible. When a consumer opens Hotel Deals by lastminute.com, the app prompts her for a check-in of today, tomorrow or the following day, then uses the smartphone's GPS technology to pinpoint her location and displays hotel deals in the nearby area. She selects a hotel, is prompted for her name and related information, and then is prompted for her payment card, which she can now snap.
"That reduces a lot of friction," says Jason Fulmines, director of mobile, Travelocity. "You can go through the entire booking process in just a couple of minutes. With smartphones you should be focused on reducing the number of taps because any time you can reduce taps your conversion should be better because you are able to make it a little easier on folks."
In addition, Jumio's technology validates the consumer's credit card, which serves as a part of Travelocity's fraud prevention process. Jumio's system is compliant with PCI data security standards from the PCI Security Standards Council and uses 128-bit encryption in card data transmission.
"Jumio and Travelocity recognize that the mobile consumer requires different, more streamlined experiences and functionality to conduct transactions than simply transferring the same processes from the big screen to the little screen," says Marc Barach, chief marketing officer at Jumio. "It takes nearly a minute for consumers to successfully enter their credit card data the conventional way and we're able to reduce that time by a factor of 10 to about five seconds. This acceleration creates a more satisfying user experience."

Harlequins have the majority of their squad available for selection for this weekend's Aviva Premiership clash with Bath at the Stoop.
Harlequins have the majority of their squad available for selection for this weekend's Aviva Premiership clash with Bath at the Stoop.
On his return from international duty, Mike Brown starts at full-back alongside Ugo Monye and Tom Williams. Jordan Turner-Hall and George Lowe continue in tandem in the centres, while Nick Evans and Danny Care start at half back.
Joe Marler also returns from international duty alongside Joe Gray and James Johnston in the front row.
Ollie Kohn partners the returning George Robson who will also captain the side.
Tom Guest, Luke Wallace and Nick Easter make up the back row. Chris Robshaw will be ready to return against Saracens at Wembley next week having been given the week off to recover post 6 Nations.
The bench sees Rob Buchanan, Mark Lambert and Will Collier covering the specialist front row positions.
Tomas Vallejos and the returning Mo Fa'asavalu will look to impact in the back five. Karl Dickson and Rory Clegg cover at half back with Ross Chisholm covering the remainder of the back-line.
Amongst those players unavailable are Tim Fairbrother (calf), Chris Brooker (knee), Charlie Matthews (ankle), Charlie Walker (Hong Kong Sevens) and Sam Twomey (shoulder).head.
Meanwhile, Nick Abendanon, Olly Woodburn, Nathan Catt, Pieter Dixon, David Wilson and Simon Taylor all return to the starting line-up for Bath.
There are also returns for Ross Batty, Kane Palma-Newport, Mark McMillan and Dan Hipkiss, who are all named on the bench in a matchday squad containing 10 changes from the LV= Cup Semi Final defeat to Leicester Tigers two weeks ago.
Abendanon comes back in at full-back, with Woodburn joining Tom Biggs on the wings. Matt Carraro and Olly Barkley combine in the centres, with Tom Heathcote and Michael Claassens continuing their half back pairing.
Up front, Catt, Dixon and Wilson form a new front row, with Dave Attwood and Ryan Caldwell joining forces in the engine room. Taylor completes the pack alongside Carl Fearns and Francois Louw in the back row.
Form: Harlequins have topped the Aviva Premiership Rugby table since round three but have stuttered of late to record just three wins in their last seven encounters. Quins have not lost a Premiership game at the Twickenham Stoop since Saracens were the visitors in round 22 last season. Bath have won three of their last four Premiership matches, and have won their last two away games in all competitions (both at Exeter in the Anglo-Welsh Cup and the Premiership). Quins beat Bath 26-13 at the Rec in round eight, but have not achieved a season's double over them since 2008/09. Bath have not won at the Stoop since their 24-18 triumph in the European Challenge Cup on 9 December 2006.

FGD: Witty Puns About The Coyotes
February 24 2013 05:40PM
The nice thing about Sunday is that it's not Monday. The Flames had a case of the Mondays this past week against Phoenix, when they lost the world's most unwatchable hockey game in convincing fashion, a 4-0 snoozefest against a Coyotes team that against all odds both still exists and performs decently enough to find themselves batting for a playoff spot. For obvious reasons, we are not going to talk about it anymore.
Instead, let's talk about how Calgary finds themselves in similar territory as a good number of their opponents this year, in that they are playing in back to back nights after coming off a win against the Minnesota Wild last night. (The similar territory, of course, being the Scotiabank Saddledome, as usually the team playing back to back has to travel to Cowtown after bolting out of Edmonton as fast as they could, because how else do you leave Edmonton if you ever find yourself in the grim position of being there?
The Line
The big news, inexplicably, is that Steve Begin, Calgary Flames forward I guess, checks in for his 500th NHL game tonight, and while that's a tidy little milestone for the 34 year old from Trois Rivieres, you'll forgive Flames fans if they don't intend to mark the achievement with any degree of pomp and circumstance.
What is more likely to put some pep in the C of Red's spirit is the return of Roman Cervenka (THE CHERV!) after a one game absense. Cherv will replace Akim Aliu, who is out with a lower body injury, speculated to be a complete dearth of skating ability. As a result, Bob Hartley has assembled one sexy looking line that Flames fans have been salivating for all year by putting Roman on a line with Jiri Hudler and Sven Baertschi. Breathe that one in for a moment, folks.
Here's how she breaks down (probably, courtesty of Roger Millions):
- Tanguay - Stajan - Iginla
- Baertschi - Cervenka - Hudler
- Glencross - Cammalleri - Stempniak
- Comeau - Begin - Jackman
- Bouwmeester - Giordano
- Wideman - Brodie
- Smith - Butler
- MacDonald
Matty Franchise gets another crack at centering Tanguay and Iginla after potting a couple of monumentally important win securing goals last night. Stajan is playing some of his best stretches of puck since first donning the Flaming C, and we'd be good just to ride the wave rather than question it or wait for the other skate to drop. The Flames are taking this approach at the moment, and I say let them.
Joey Joe Joe Junior Shabadu gets the nod between the pipes on back to back nights, as a rather solid performance against the Wild yesterday was enough to warrant another go at it this evening, which is, well, whatever I suppose. Sarich takes a ride on the pine, as does Anton Babchuk once again, which we can all agree is a relief.
Seriously though, guys, Sven - Cherv - Hudler. That line could be the business.
The Dirty Dogs
The Coyotes, after relinquishing what looked like a certain win against the Oilers, which must be embarrassing, and will look to find their way back into win column tonight. Which I think is a terrible idea and hope they decide against it. You're not supposed to be successful, guys, do you realize who you are?
Projected Coyotes lineups, again per the legendary Roger Millions.
- Boedker - Vermette - Doan
- Moss - Gordon - Torres
- Sullivan - Lombardi - Korpikoski
- Bissonette - Chipchura - Johnson
(Rog accidentally named all the Flames D in the Phoenix slots, so let's try and figure this out by how they usually stack up)
- Yandle - Klesla
- Ekman-Larsson - Michalek
- Summers - Rundblad
- Smith
What can you say about Mike Smith that hasn't already been said about Jonathan Quick last season? If the Flames are to have any success tonight, they're going to have to get to Smith early. It'll be a tough task as Smith has played some fine hockey of late, coupled with the Flames sudden inability to find the twine. (Obviously it's a bit of a cop out to say that a key to the matchup for the Flames is to score goals, but it is, so let's hope they do that)
Might want to watch out for stereo jerk in Shane Doan and Raffi Torres. Radim Vrbata might have the most points on the Coyotes, but those two are certainly the most offensive part of Phoenix' makeup.
So I Guess What I'm Saying Is
Calgary hasn't done a very good job of winning consecutive games this season (having only done it once this season), and it's been frustrating watch the team throw up some duds after some of their more impressive wins this season. The inconsistency continues to divide the fanbase, as the blow it up camp would prefer the team continue to drop games in order to secure, oh, let's say natural center Nathan MacKinnon, while those of us rational people who enjoy the spirit of competition would love to watch our charges string together some bonus W's.
Time's going to tell which bloc of fans gets their way.
In Other News
No, that's about it. Go Flames!
Some of us other rational people want Ryan O'reilly, either by offer sheet or trade I DON'T CARE.
Go Flames, Go SVEN, Go Cherv, Go Hulerites, Go Scoreface!
Thanks BoL
Right you are.Have a feeling that this may be a line that sticks.Sven Jiri Roman should be as entertaining as any top line in the league
February 24 2013, 06:03PM
Hilariously, Akim Aliu is out with an injury. With Cervenka back, that gives the Flames 3 real lines and it means Comeau goes back down to the 4th line as well.
Awaiting roster sheets, but am hearing no Morris, Vrbata or Hanzal for Phoenix tonight.
Also, I heartily encourage you all to come to the Hitmen vs. Saskatoon on Wednesday night. The Blades are on a massive winning streak and the Hitmen are gearing up for the playoffs. Should be a great atmosphere. And it's a Wednesday game.
FLAMES: Comeau - Hudler - Baertschi, Smith - Butler, MacDonald
COYOTES: Torres - Gordon - Moss, Michalek - Ekman-Larsson, Smith
February 24 2013, 06:22PM
Apparently Hanzal and Vrbata are out tonight. Flames HAVE to win this one.
Cervenka's on the fourth line with Begin and Jackman right now.
Simple play executed well. Offense from the fourth line, who'da thunk it?
February 24 2013, 06:39PM
Much better start for the boys tonight than last time they faced the dogs.
February 24 2013, 06:40PM
Why is Comeau still in the Flames top-9? Why?
February 24 2013, 06:41PM
Giordano takes a stick to the face. There MAY be blood. I think it's a double-minor.
February 24 2013, 06:43PM
Nice 1 nothing. Who scored?
February 24 2013, 06:43PM
@Kent Wilson
Probably something about "truculence"
February 24 2013, 06:45PM
Flames have a nice jump to their step thus far.
February 24 2013, 06:46PM
Nice 1 nothing. Who scored?
February 24 2013, 06:48PM
Stempniak to the box for tripping.
February 24 2013, 06:49PM
Cammalleri killed more than one play on that PP.
February 24 2013, 06:49PM
How does that get called on Stemps and 2 min earlier, they don't call Stajan's stick getting slashed out of his hand?
February 24 2013, 06:50PM
Just tuned in to watch the 4 min PP - looked good. How have they been ES?
February 24 2013, 06:55PM
The pace is very similar to last night, except the Flames have more jump in their step and are connecting on their passes.
But it's very low-event. Ekman-Larsson falling down in his own zone is the most noteworthy thing of the past 8 minutes.
February 24 2013, 07:00PM
@Ryan Pike
Another couple of icings this period too.
February 24 2013, 07:02PM
Hartley is quickly becoming Brian Burke/Ron Wilson. Talking about needing truculence and threatening to 'go out and get it if we have to'. Not a good thing, especially if they end up dumping Iginla for what they perceive to be a 'good trade', when in reality they get a couple grinders and some magic beans.
Another snoozefest tonight, unfortunately.
February 24 2013, 07:03PM
They'll end up trading for Daymond Langkow, the rights to Nigel Dawes, and Colton Orr's jock strap.
February 24 2013, 07:03PM
Just 3 even strength scoring chances by both teams so far.
February 24 2013, 07:05PM
Stop icing the puck Calgary.
February 24 2013, 07:06PM
It's another ping-pong game.
February 24 2013, 07:08PM
Stop icing the puck Calgary.
Calgary seems quite content that if the play isn't there, they just dump it and regroup.
February 24 2013, 07:09PM
Chances were 5-2 Flames. Two of them on that extended PP.
No way are we getting ROR, the asking price is so steep even Glen Sather recently backed away. I doubt Feaster would sign him to an offer sheet. Behind the scenes LaCroix is still running the show. When the NYR signed Joe Sakic to an offer sheet, Colorado matched it immediately. Anaheim never matched Penner's offer sheet because they had studs like Getzlaf and Perry.
February 24 2013, 07:21PM
Lots of icings meant that the Flames only really had a couple of zone-start opportunities. Lots of tired guys out there for draws, doing the face-off, then attempting to make a change.
AV is a jerk, he let Luongo stay in for all 8 goals tonight against Detroit. Maybe Luongo should pull a Patrick Roy and tell Gillis to trade him now.
February 24 2013, 07:31PM
Im betting Pittsburgh Penguins practices are more exciting than this.
February 24 2013, 07:32PM
What??????? Really refs?
February 24 2013, 07:37PM
Pretty good kill by Flames/limp PP By Coyotes there.
February 24 2013, 07:38PM
What the?
February 24 2013, 07:40PM
Weirdest goal of the year? Penalty call I've never seen before and then an own goal off the ensuing faceoff.
These refs are honestly crap
@Kent.....still nothing on live chat room during the games? Hope we can some time soon.
February 24 2013, 07:45PM
Jarome is taking a lot of shots from bad areas on the ice the last few games.
February 24 2013, 07:46PM
Nothing quite yet. Everything costs some amount of money at this point.
I'm ticked! I'm probably the only one here in Utah that watches nhl hockey and yet the games blacked out!!!!
@Kent Wilson
No problem Kent. Just thought I'd check. Thx
I'm ticked! I'm probably the only one here in Utah that watches nhl hockey and yet the games blacked out!!!!
Have you tried first row sports?
February 24 2013, 07:54PM
Coyotes have just two ES scoring chances in this game so far. Yeesh.
February 24 2013, 07:54PM
This is getting ridiculous!
Where's Cammi tnite? I do understand Hartley giving Stajan so much ice time but I'm really frustrated with Cammi's ice management. I can't stand so much line juggling. Remember the good old days when our lines were set every game. Ex. Patterson, Gilmour, Mullen. Just not sold on Comeau and regardless, I'll never like Stajan but Bob loves these guys. Soooo strange to see Iggy as such a non-threat most nights now!
Is there a fee?
Wow this is some boring hockey!
February 24 2013, 07:58PM
And then they score on their third. Lombo dummied Gio and Bouwmeester there.

A must for every ride
By Barry
from Sherman, Il
About Me Avid Cyclist
If you ride at all this is a must. It prevent chafing and is not greasy at all.
I always come back to Paceline
By Cycledad
from Costa Mesa, CA
I've tried them all (I even went through a phase where I tried to concoct my own), but I always find myself coming back to Paceline. This is a very subjective experience, but I've found it to be the best protection I can get on long rides. Without it, I wouldn't be able to do the distances I normally do. It's as essential as spare tubes and a cell phone on long rides.
Works well
By DM
from Milton, Florida
As they say an ounce of prevention saves a pound of cure. This stuff works as intended.
Always go with the real deal.
By Chunky Pony A'Kickin' It
from Anaheim, CA
Paceline Chamois Butter has a consistency that other Chamois Butter's lack. It's thicker and that quality helps it stay where it's applied as opposed to rubbing off or moving away from stress areas. I've tried others and they don't compare. One pays a price for using thinner, more watery butters.

Great Stuff!
By Jim "the Redneck"
from Pomona, KS
I've used other brands that worked just fine butt (pun intended) I'd have to say that this is the finest chamois cream that I've used. The tube is about the right size for travelling so it packs nicely. No smell of elderberries or anything else funky or offensive so it's a two thumbs up on smell factor. This stuff is slicker than a DC politician so you won't chaff your delicates. If you're riding any considerable distances without using a chamois cream then you're a tougher hombre than me (and I'm tough as nails!) Buy it. Use it. Be wise.
This product works great

Works well to reduce/prevent chafing.
Your Bum Will Thank You
By Dennis
from Northern California
At 47 years of age, I've found I've just started to develop saddle sores if I put in more than about 150 miles/week. (Legs weaker & more weight on saddle?) Tried Paceline Chamois Butt'r and found that it does what it says it does. I apply directly to my skin prior to long rides and have no issues with chaffing. I definitely feel a difference between rides when I use the Butt'r and those when I do not.I've also found that if I start to develop sores this product inhibits further development and aids healing.
Good value

About Me Competitive Cyclist
Love this stuff, works well. Needs to be re-applied halfway thru a bike ride, but almost any chamois creme wears out after 50 miles so no surprise. I like it better then DZ Nuts.

Quite strong, wakes up instantly in the morning. I'm sad though that iHerb doesnt have a medium sized packaging for 4.50$, just these small packets ones and the big one in a jar. Highly recommended all in all.

Nescafe French Roast Instant coffee

This the favorite roast in our house, but the local grocery stores stopped carrying them. I am so glad that iHerb does. I am very satisfied with their prompt delivery, excellent service.
LOVE this product!
Posted by 5377244987501380759 on Sep 11, 2014
I consider myself pretty well versed on coffee - I Roast, grind and brew my own ... BUT believe it or not, I use instant when not in the mood to go through the whole routine. It's quick, it's cheap and I've always rather enjoyed the flavor on it's own merits. Problem is - you get a jar, open it, and it loses it's flavor in a week once exposed to the air. Enter - Taster's choice single serve. I was all over it from the get-go. Always fresh. Shortly after this product was introduced, BAM - the k-cup beast was unleashed. This new format took off like a rocket but ... sorry to say, the coffee generally sucks. THEN Nescafe came out with the French (read dark) roast. A good thing got even better! They are getting harder to find but iherb saved the day. The taste I like for 30cents a cup? I'll take it!
Just coffee
Posted by victorya on Aug 18, 2015
Simple black coffee,nothing special.I didn't expect something more so I put 5 stars.
