TUPELO – Parishioners at St. James Catholic Church realize folks are busy these days, especially during the holidays.
So, they're here to help you.
They've been working for weeks to prepare frozen casseroles, soups, chili, turkey and dressing, and cookies as well as fresh baked goods, including breads, cakes, pies and candy, to sell at the annual St. James Ladies Club Rummage Sale & Food Bazaar.
The event is Saturday, Nov. 3, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Catholic Life Center located on the north side of St. James Catholic Church on Lakeshire Drive in Tupelo.
The event is two-fold: Part of it features the frozen and fresh foods. The other part is a rummage sale, where you'll find new and used furniture, clothing, toys, appliances, books, electronics, housewares, bedding and linens, home decor and "white elephant" items.
For the food bazaar, two new dishes have been added this year: Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas and Loaded Potato Soup.
"The Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas is actually an old recipe that we've brought back and updated," said Susannah Davis, who is coordinating the food bazaar. "People really love anything Mexican. The other new recipe is a Loaded Potato Soup that I found in a Junior League cookbook."
Also on tap this year are old favorites, including Bandito Chicken Casserole, Baked Ziti Pasta Italiano, Hallelujah Southern Turkey Dressing, Jamin' Jambalaya, Chicken Pot Pie, Paula Deen's Squash Casserole, Backwoods Chili, Breakfast Casserole, Cranberry & Cream Cheese Salad and the Christmas Cookie Medley, featuring Peanut Butter Blossoms, Fantasy Fudge and Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies.
"The cookie medley was a really popular thing last year," Davis said. "Each one is individually wrapped and frozen. It's so easy for people to pull them out at Christmas."
It takes all the congregation's members working together to produce all the food that will be offered at the food bazaar.
Some, literally, work together.
Parishioners Nikki Ivancic, Debbie Spitler and Laura Fava get together for one day each year and knock out a bunch of casseroles.
Ivancic said this year they decided to make the Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas.
"We made 16 recipes, which is probably 25 or 30 pans," she said.
"It's fun and it's good fellowship," said Fava, who opens up her kitchen for the cooking.
"We get in there and mess it up and have a ball," Spitler added.
Davis said the bazaar is the perfect place for busy families to shop before the holidays get here.
"People don't cook like my mama did or my grandmother did or like I do," said Davis, who prepares home-cooked meals every night for her family. "They don't have time to. They're busy with kids on the ball field or the soccer field. But they still want to eat well. This works well for people who are pinched for time, especially during the holidays."
Davis said the food bazaar brought in $6,500 last year, which was used for Vacation Bible School, religious education, college scholarships and Catholic charities, among other things.
"All the proceeds go to help those in need and to fund programs at the church for the youth and other parishioners," she said.

Supposed to rain most of today, with t-storms possible; high of only mid-40s. Maybe even snow as low as 500 ft. (that would be a few miles south of me). The foothills are dusted with powder now (when the clouds clear to view 'em).
edit: here's the hail... a precursor to snow?

Inspire for Teens
PREPARE/ENRICH Inspire is an experiential, skills-based group program for teens based on key findings from PREPARE/ENRICH studies. The most current research ("PREPARE" component) is provided for Facilitators to present in manageable segments within 10 lessons. This research is made relevant to teens by "Inspire" questions, which provide an invitation to reflect on the nature of their subjective experiences related to the presented topic. The "ENRICH" component consists of activities that expand on research, thus extending learning. These activities are designed to engage a variety of learning styles (visual, auditory, kinesthetic) as well as to provide opportunities for different learning modes, such as art, research, and technology.
The PREPARE/ENRICH-Inspire for Teens curriculum:
Online Self-Training
If you are unable to find a workshop in your
area or prefer to learn online, you can
register for PREPARE/ENRICH
Online Self-Training.
Marriage Mentor Program
Once your church or community has a trained and certified PREPARE/ENRICH professional, you might consider establishing a Marriage Mentor Program to help premarital couples get more preparation or married couples get the assistance they need for healthier relationships.

I'm working on my Vintage collection now, and I was wondering if anybody has a complete set of 93 Vintage figures? Carded or not. Mine are all loose but are complete and in excellent condition. I figure I have about half.
I guess 93 is the correct number counting Yak Face.

We spend 5 beautiful days in Budapest and enjoyed every minute of it. The Little Whistle Appartment was a perfect base to explore (down)town and the available bicycles brought us everywhere we wanted.
Thank you Bali!
Robin & Mette
Great place. Nice, clean, original decor. In the middle of Budapest. We liked it very much. Good beds also !
This apartment is a JEWEL, situated at the best location i can imagin for a short trip in Budapest. Anita, your work is GREAT! And Bali, your work too!
You created a lovely, peacefull place with so many splendid details! ! !
I can give a TRUE and STRONG RECOMMENDATION for the LITTLE WHISTLE, and i hope, i am able to come back one day, which is hopefully not so far away....
Greetings from the heart! *franziska
Little Whistle Apartment is a very fine, soulfull and personal crip in a beautiful atrium-spot, placed perfectly in the jewish neighbourhood. Our host made sure that we were well settled with drinks in the fridge and all our informations straight, when we arrived, and was sweet and helpful in everyway. Fx gave us recommandations for what to explore in the city, booked our taxi to the airport and made it clear, that he was always available, in which we trusted. So if you choose to visit Budapest, don't cheat yourself for the experience of living at the Little Whistle.
Denna väldigt fina lilla klassiska ungerska lägenhet passade oss utmärkt.
Allting är fint renoverat och duschen var en njutnig i värmeböljan.
Jag rekommenderar denna lägenhet mest för ungdomar då hiss saknas i huset och lägenheten är på 3:e vån (europeér säger 2:a vån).
Dessutom är den fina matplatsen i köket snyggt inrett men med högt bord och höga pallar....vi "tanter" hade lite svårt med det.
Lägenheten ligger kanonbra och nära centrum. Man kan gå till allt med raska unga steg ! Vi fick fina förslag på restauranger av vår värd, vilket vi uppskattade då vi inte är intresserade av "turistfällor". Det blev mycket lyckosamma besök !
Tack för denna gången Bali !

Eating Vegan: Where do You Get Your Protein?
Second only to "I would die without cheese!" folks ask all the time about where vegans get their protein. For someone accustomed to centering their dinner plate around a piece of animal protein, I can see how this might seem like a problem. You take that steak off of your plate, and you're basically living on salad and potatoes.
Not that I'm knocking salads or potatoes. In fact, baked potatoes do contain a little bit of protein!
But really, where do you get protein when it's not coming from animal products? The short answer is: lots of places! Here are some common vegan staples and their protein contents:
- beans – 7-10 grams per half cup (cooked)
- tofu – 2.3 grams per half ounce
- peanut butter – 8 grams per 2 Tablespoons
- almonds – 8 grams per 1/4 cup
- peanuts – 9 grams per 1/4 cup
- cashews – 5 grams per 1/4 cup
- flax seeds – 8 grams per 1/4 cup
- brown rice – 3 grams per 4 ounces
- quinoa – 4.5 grams per 1/2 cup
- baked potato – 2.5 grams
- cooked broccoli – 7 grams per half cup
- peas – 8 grams per half cup
- corn – 5 grams per 1 cup
Really, the question is, where don't vegans get protein? The recommended daily value for protein is about 50 grams for a 2000 calorie diet, which you could easily hit by combining a couple of protein sources per meal: beans and rice, whole grain cereal in soy or nut milk, or broccoli and whole wheat pasta.
So, spill the beans, my vegan friends! What's your favorite protein source?

Pingback: Why Most Food Could Never Be "Local" : Eat. Drink. Better.
Good post. You had me until you brought up the combining protien myth that just refuses to die. The really short answer to where do you get your protein is: It doesn't matter because it's impossible not to get enough unless your starving yourself.
I've been vegetarian for a while now, and feel pretty comfortable with the protein issue — but I hadn't realized that potatoes and broccoli are sources of protein. That's good to know…
I start off every day with an organic banana chopped up with raw organic walnuts in almond milk. sooo delicious, and all three are chock full of protein and fiber that helps keep me healthy.
I have experimented with various diet types over the last couple of years and have found that the protein in the high carb foods listed above gives me SIGNIFICANTLY less energy than the protein in fish or eggs. I felt like crap when I ate vegan food, and I ate all of the stuff listed above.
Oats are good, too. I eat them almost daily. And tempeh is better than tofu for many people – easier on the digestive system.
Good article here.. can you please send it to my mother-in-law?!
Sometimes I think to myself, "OK, if ONE more (unhealthy/ obese/ high-cholesterol-suffering/ diabetic/ etc.) omni asks where I get my protein, I'm gonna have no choice but initiating a swift kick to their shins!" (I'm non-violent, generally, but starting to consider selective exceptions…)
As commented above: protein is a NON ISSUE, if you just eat enough calories to meet your body's energy needs! It is far more common (especially in developed/ Western nations) to consume TOO MUCH protein, which has been shown (in peer-reviewed clinical research, at respected universities like Duke) to increase risk for diabetes & osteoporosis…
This question is symptomatic of the nutritional ignorance that runs rampant in our society. Thanks for writing about it! You may have saved some readers' shins.
(Just kidding!… mostly…)
The protein sources are really good, thanks for the list.
Although since I've begun eating vegan and mostly raw, I just can't eat. Even when I'm hungry just seeing food makes me full. I only feel like eating high calorie fruits, because like Denise said, my body doesn't feel 'energized' by the protein.
I was vegetarian with vegan tendencies for 5 years and here's what I found. Oh, and I actually have a background in science (Masters).
You don't need to eat meat as long as you eat a really varied diet. Proteins come in different types, just like fats. Proteins, whether soy, chicken, beef, nuts, whatever all have differing amounts of different amino acids. Since we need all the amino acids, we need to consume them all since our bodies don't make them.
That said, the Duke studies showing animal protein is bad… go back and actually read the studies. They're not about animal protein, per se. They're about animal fat. Fat in high concentrations is bad for you, no matter where it comes from. Generalizing from "excess animal fat" to all animal proteins is erroneous.
In fact, one reason animal protein has likely been a major source of nutrition for so long is that it is what's considered a "complete protein," meaning that all meats contain all amino acids. No non-meats contain all animo acids. Again, this is not to say that you should eat animal protein, since you can get all those amino acids from other foods. I just want to set the record straight because I think erroneous claims actually hurt the cause. There are plenty of other reasons to avoid meat (poor treatment of animals, environmental degradation, world hunger, etc.).
Let this guy clear it up for you – Dr. McDougall – a physician who has devoted his life to nutrition.
Soooo many misconceptions about protein. He talks about the misleading notion of 'complete proteins' as well. As a vegan and former competitive athlete, I never had any issues with protein or my energy level. As a former animal-eater, I used to make statements such as 'I need protein from fish to feel better'. I totally understand those sentiments. And yet, eating enough calories (just as someone mentioned) is the trick. Oh and eating calories that are whole-food based and unprocessed – equally as important.
Pingback: Eating Vegan: The Soy Dilemma, Part One : Eat. Drink. Better.
Pingback: Tempeh Ten Ways – Eat Drink Better
To make protein the cells need all the availabe amino acids together at the same time. There are 9 digestable essential amino acids, which also contain nitrogen, an important element of protein, that we get from animal or animal by products, because our body CAN NOT produce them. Living plants don't contain nitrogen. Our bodies need to have at least these 9 essential amino acids to create protein. The other 13 amino acids our body can make. Then our body turns them into proteins. When you don't eat these 9 essential amino acids the body can't make the other 13. This creates poor protein and can't utilize them as well, creating a poor diet when only eating plant based diet. There will also be a lack of another important vitamin: B-12, which is attached to animal based amino acid chains. Plant based vitamin B-12, causes deficiency, because it can not be digested by the body. All of these elements need to be in their natural state the way they are in whole food for our bodies to benefit from them.

About Jeff Masters
Cat 6 lead authors: WU cofounder Dr. Jeff Masters (right), who flew w/NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990, & WU meteorologist Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 7:42 PM GMT on October 13, 2010
Data from an Air Force Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicates that Hurricane Paula has weakened substantially, and may now be a Category 1 hurricane. The aircraft has made three penetrations of the eye as of 3:30pm EDT, and found top surface winds of 80 mph with their SFMR instrument. Top winds seen at flight level of 10,000 feet were 92 mph, which translates to 83 mph surface winds, using the 10% reduction rule of thumb. Based on these data, it is reasonable to assume Paula is now a Category 1 hurricane with 85 - 90 mph winds, since the aircraft may not have sampled where the peak winds were occurring. Paula is in the Yucatan Channel, the narrow gap between Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula and the western tip of Cuba, and has now turned and is headed northeast towards Cuba. A rain band with heavy rains lies over the western tip of Cuba, and Cabo San Antonio on the western tip of Cuba picked up 2.80" of rain so far today from Paula. However, the winds have remained below 15 mph.
Figure 1. Radar image from the Pinar del Rio radar in Cuba at 3:15pm EDT on October 13, 2010, showing the eye of Paula near the western tip of Cuba. A strong spiral band was affecting western Cuba at this time. Image credit: Cuban Institute of Meteorology.
High wind shear due to strong upper-level winds out of the south are starting to tear up the southern portion of Paula, and satellite imagery shows the storm now has a lopsided appearance due to the shear. Low level spiral banding is no longer as impressive, and lines of low-level arc-shaped clouds are racing away from the southern portion of Paula, indicating that the hurricane has ingested dry air that has created strong thunderstorm downdrafts. Ingestion of this dry air is partially responsible for Paula's recent weakening. Water vapor satellite loops confirm the presence of a large amount of dry air on the south, west, and north sides of Paula.
Forecast for Paula
A small storm like Paula may weaken very quickly under the current 30 knots of wind shear and the dry air surrounding it. However, the latest 3pm EDT eye report from the Hurricane Hunters indicated that Paula's eyewall still remained solid, so Paula may be able to hang on for a few more hours before the shear drives dry air into the inner core and destroys the eyewall. Once that occurs, Paula should weaken more rapidly. I'd be surprised if Paula was still a hurricane on Thursday morning, even if it does not hit Cuba. Hurricane force winds extend out just fifteen miles from Paula's center, so only a very small region of coast will receive Paula's strongest winds if landfall occurs. The 11am EDT wind probability product from NHC gives Cabo San Antonio on the western tip of Cuba the highest odds of receiving hurricane force winds of any land area--a 35% chance. Key West is given a 4% chance, and Havana, Cuba, an 8% chance. These probabilities are slightly higher than they were in the 5am advisory, reflecting Paula's ability to hang tough in the face of 30 knots of wind shear. It currently appears that heavy rain will be the major threat from Paula. If Paula stalls over or near western Cuba for several days, the hurricane could easily dump more than ten inches over mountainous regions of the island.
The latest SHIPS model forecast calls for wind shear to rise to a very high 35 - 40 knots on Thursday afternoon, and remain above 25 knots for the rest of the week. This high shear, combined with the expected landfall of the center over mountainous Cuba, should be enough to destroy Paula by Sunday.
The latest set of model runs from 8am EDT (12Z) are very similar to the previous sets of runs. There are two basic solutions. One solution, championed by the GFDL and GFS ensemble mean, takes Paula just south of the Florida Keys on Friday morning, then into the Bahamas Friday afternoon. The other solution, offered by the rest of the models, is for Paula to move very slowly over western Cuba the next few days, then circle southeastwards into the Caribbean, as a strong high pressure system over the Gulf of Mexico intensifies and pushes Paula to the south. This is the more likely scenario, given the current trends in how the models are depicting evolution of the jet stream pattern over the U.S. in the coming days. However, residents of South Florida, the Keys, and the Bahamas should be anticipate the possibility of Paula coming their way as a weak tropical storm on Friday.
Elsewhere in the tropics
The NOGAPS model is predicting the formation of Tropical Storm Richard 5 - 6 days from now, in the southern Caribbean off the coast of Nicaragua, near where Paula formed. The GFS has just a strong tropical disturbance forming there.
In the Western Pacific, Tropical Storm Megi has formed, and is predicted to be a major typhoon that will threaten the northern Philippine Island of Luzon early next week.
Next update
I'll have an update Thursday morning.

Nearly six months. Should update this.
Ok, So I've moved to Dublin, Ireland to get work. I'm now living in Maynooth, so I've got ADSL (yay!) and even in range of IrishWan. Joining is on my list of things to do someday.
Only, work is insanely busy right now, so priorities are family and Debian commitments. In Debian, I'm working on BIDI for the Debian Installer, and console-* bugs.
The MEng in SW Engineering is also postponed, at least until Debian Sarge is out the door, and work pressure eases off.

Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7) is one of hundreds of strains of the bacterium Escherichia coli (E. coli). Although E. coli of many types live in the intestines of healthy humans and animals, this strain produces a powerful toxin and can cause severe illness.
Most illness has been due to eating undercooked ground beef. Other cases have been traced to drinking unpasteurized apple juice/cider, raw milk, eating produce contaminated by animal feces, and recreational exposure in contaminated water. Person-to-person contact in families and childcare centers due to poor personal hygiene and inadequate hand washing can cause further transmission.
E. coli O157:H7 infection causes abdominal cramps and diarrhea, which is sometimes bloody. There is little or no fever present, and the acute illness is generally gone in five to ten days. In children under five years of age and the elderly, the infection can cause a complication called hemolytic uremic syndrome, in which the red blood cells are destroyed and the kidneys fail. About two percent to seven percent of infections lead to this complication.
Most persons recover in five to ten days without antibiotics or other specific treatment. Avoid taking drugs that stop the diarrhea by affecting gut motility (that would "paralyze" the gut). There is no evidence that antibiotics improve the course of disease, and it is thought that treatment may actually predispose to development of hemolytic uremic syndrome, a life-threatening condition.
What can you do to prevent E. coli O157:H7 infection?

Blade was awesome!
A high adrenaline film however you look at it.
It was very highly concentrating on martial arts exhibition, especially sword fighting. Very predictable and pandered towards an unsophisticated audience the way it was shot, until the martial arts moves became closer to bare-hand and traditional weapons (versus sci-fi ones) and I could follow the moves as someone who's into the arts, and appreciate the choreography and the challenge that shooting those fight sequences involved. - Ah - here it is - with the vampires all turning into fire and ash when touched by Blade's silver, it was too cliche and easy for him - until he met the ghoulish zombie creatures. Then the martial arts got noticeably more interesting.
Second to that, it saw gore and special effects or make-up and costuming - almost into the Alien Autopsy stage. Also predictable, though the mad-scientist vampire and the forensics specialist vampire chic were new twists that were a lot of fun.
Next, it was poetically put together, with a romantic tragedy worked into it, and an appocalyptic countdown that had to be stopped before all the world would be dominated by the blood-suckers. Typical, but nicely done. The vampire commando team was a crazy, but great idea. Though it wonders if the writers wanted to make a vampire movie, or redo the Dirty Dozen?
Finally, the plot twists, double-crosses (if you pardon the pun and how it applies to vampire movies), and the plot feints (like not knowing who will turn) were all a lot of fun.
I totally liked this movie and would watch it in the theaters again!
It actually was BETTER than the first Blade movie, something every sequel hopes to do.

The local comic shop has a buch of them for $15 each. Is this a good price? I've never really thought about picking them up but they looked pretty cool when I was little for being "Just off screen" toys. The one I'd be interesting in getting (or them rereleasing) is the feuling station.
I love the Minirigs! Did as a kid, still as an adult. If the condition's decent, $15 for a MR is pretty good. I have none of the POTF ones (some kind of personal skiff, flying cannon, and one other), and am missing the Desert Sail Skiff, but got all the rest of 'em.
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
Hmmm...i think the one u are talking about is the Endor Forest Ranger.
As always...........L
Here's the list of all the Minirigs:
PDT-8 [Personal Deployment Transport]
CAP-2 [Captivator]
INT-4 [Interceptor]
MLC-3 [Moble Laser cannon]
MTV-7 (related to MTV2? ) [Multi-Terrain Vehicle]
AST-5 [Armored Sentinel Vehicle]
ISP-6 [Imperial Shuttle Pod]
*Desert Sail Skiff
Endor Forest Ranger
*Sand Skimmer
*Imperial Sniper
*Security Scout
* = I don't have these ones.

I was just checking the SSG picture archives and found that the last three which were issued in the POTF line were called Body-rigs!
For those who don't remember what these three looked like, I've taken pics of them from way back and have them posted in my site as part of the Vintage Vehicles.
As you can see, these were taken early on when I just got my digital videocam. I'll try to get better pics once I get the chance and have them reposted on my site. Now that I think more about it, I'll do a diorama with them as the main focus!

In particular Cobi Hamilton? After getting burned by ole miss, should we be worried about Arky. They don't have anything to lose and this game historically has been a tough one.
Hopefully the MSU loss took the last bit of wind out of their sails. But they're always tough and we have to play better than we did today.
i didn't see the game, but it's not like they put up impressive numbers.
you can't really compare how "we" played vs ole miss to how "we" will play vs arkansas though. based on how "we" played state, "we" should have destroyed om, but that didn't happen. LSU has to be focused, but that's every team, every week, just look at oregon and ksu. "i" think LSU is by far the better team, and "i" think "we" match up a lot better vs arky than "we" did vs om (defensively).

Add these delicious sweet scones to your bread basket which are made using Bisquick® mix, coconut and vanilla chips drizzled with glaze - perfect for Island cuisine.
If you want to leave off the glaze, another sweet topping option is to brush the tops of the scones with additional whipping cream and then sprinkle with additional granulated sugar or coarse sugar before baking.
When stirring the Bisquick mixture to form the dough, if you can't get it to all come together in the bowl, just turn it out onto the countertop and work it with your hands to bring it all together. You want the dough to just come together; it won't be all smooth.

NJ Collector Ralph DeLuca Pays $1.2M for Metropolis Poster Group in Courtroom Auction
A courtroom is not where one usually encounters rare movie posters, but that's where New Jersey collector Ralph DeLuca made the score of a lifetime - a 1927 German poster advertising Fritz Lang's sci-fi classic Metropolis.
DeLuca, who owns the film memorabilia website RalphDeLuca.com, outbid three formidable competitors in a Dec. 13 auction at the US Bankruptcy Court in Los Angeles. He paid $1.2 million to acquire one of only four known examples of the iconic Metropolis three-sheet. Two of those four are held in institutional collections; the other two [including DeLuca's] are privately owned.
"For a poster I really want, I'll pay serious cash. I always put my money where my mouth is," DeLuca said.
Bidding opened in the courtroom at $740,000, upping the $700,000 private cash offer DeLuca had tendered previously to the Bankruptcy Court. Some of the movie-poster world's top players were present to chase the cinematic treasure. They included an agent for Heritage Auctions, London dealer Bruce Marchant, who represented UK collector AnDrew Cohen; and a rep from Profiles in History, who bid on behalf of Steve Fishler, owner of Metropolis Comics.
"If anything surprised me, it was that Heritage was not my main competitor. I expected to have to fight them tooth and nail, but they, and Fishler's representative, were out of the running before bidding even reached $900,000. At that point, it was myself versus Marchant," DeLuca said.
The battle concluded with DeLuca's $1.2 million bid for a group containing the Metropolis poster and eight other items, including a 1933 King Kong poster, a one-sheet teaser for The Invisible Man, and other posters.
The auction closed a chapter in the bankruptcy of collector Kenneth Schacter of Valencia, California. According to a Dec. 13 Reuters report, Schacter purchased the Metropolis poster seven years ago for $690,000, using funds he borrowed from an investor with whom he was to share profits once the poster was resold. When Schacter retained the poster in his own collection and did not resell it, Mannheim filed suit and won a judgment against Schacter.

I would say that even a small crowd of 35 would require additional staffing that would not be there if nothing were happening that day.

Salams to all,
In order to facilitate further discussions, could someone please give me a list of all of the books ( Tafsir, Hadith, etc) that our Sunni brothers regard as Sahih so that I could further my education. Please include only authentic and well know and respected sources. I would like Arabic with English Translation. If these books are not available online, please let me know the name of the book publishers so that I can order. When I have compiled a complete list, I will post it so that I can receive feedback as to whether this list is accepted by the majority of the members. Any resources that I collect, I will make available to members.
There is no compulsion in religion; truly the right way has become clearly distinct from error...

By Brandon Speck/NEMS Daily Journal
There are two weeks left in the Class 1A regular season. Falkner, as expected, currently sits in one of Division 1-1A's two home playoff spots.
Thrasher will need some help to get in but isn't mathematically eliminated from contention.
Thrasher's climb to playoff relevance has earned coach Lamart Harvey and the Rebels (5-3, 3-3) respect from the rest of the division.
The Rebels were tied with the Eagles (8-1, 5-1) on Thursday night before Falkner won on a late drive.
"These boys play hard. They played our tails off and we knew they would," Falkner coach Ben Ashley said. "Thrasher and Falkner have played a bunch. It's a rivalry. These kids know each other and like to hit each other."
Thrasher has games left against Smithville and at division-leading Vardaman. Falkner visits Byers and Smithville to close the regular season.
Harvey, in his first year as Thrasher's head coach, said a tough halftime message and a resulting pickup in effort led to his team's comeback from a 14-0 deficit.
"Whether you win or not, success is defined as doing the best you can and that's what we did in the second half," Harvey said.
Room to improve
Ashley's team isn't glued into a playoff spot yet and there are still areas Ashley wants to get straight before the regular season ends.
Four players on his 32-man roster were out Friday. Junior defensive back Ethan Prather hobbled off the field Friday with likely a high ankle sprain.
Sophomore tight end Tyler Windsor, junior guard Jesse Jones and freshman linebacker Cody Rodriguez were out with injuries as well. Two of them are starters but all four play key roles on special teams.
Their absence was clear as Thrasher's Logan Dobbs returned one kick for a touchdown and Luke Walden nearly had another on Thursday.
"It's a matter of us taking care of the football and playing good defense," Ashley said. "We've got to win next week to be in. It's a grind and at this point in the season, it's tough."

Out with 'hardcore' (striper)
Ahh...the wonders of broadband!
I showed the movie to my soon-to-be-12 year old son, who needs some fishing action to become a true believer. By the time it was over, he was ready to grab rods and head for Sandy Hook!
Beautiful job on the pictures, particularly the "over the transom" shot ( a magazine cover if ever I saw one) and the "old salt" himself at the wheel. Excellent writing, as always, Juro-san. Forget computers...write, make photos, and fish, fish, fish!
Best regards,
You asked for it... full size images comin' your way!
Thanks again!
Can you email me the originals of the two pictures as I would like to have the bigger copies to use on the computer. I have a broadband connection so don't worry about the size. Thanks.
Mike M.
You are far too kind with your literary description of our morning on the water and of my "fishing abilities". It was truly a pleasure to finally get together with you after several years of trying to plan something. You are a joy to fish with and I really enjoyed the time on the water with you. I was very impressed with the Spey Rods you are touting, and they are definitely something I am going to have to investigate further. Man can you throw some line with those bazookas deguised as flyrods. :eyecrazy: I was a bit disappointed that we did not find more bass during the morning long blitzes but the large bluefish were a good fill in for the MIA bass. The pictures you took really came out beautiful, I especially like the one of the back of the boat on plane.......sweeeeeeet! Hopefully next time we will be able to do a more "Hardcore" like fishing session where we spend 12+ hours chasing fish. I managed to get back out after I dropped you off and headed west in the ever freshening SSW winds. Went as far as the Thames River with nary a sighting of fish. Found plenty of peanuts but no predators. I came back east and hit Watch Hill again, found small schools lazily feeding in the washing along the beach but was not able to effectively fish them as I did not want to encroach on the surf casters. I putted over to the rocks at the point and found marauding bands of schoolies herding peanuts up into the rocks. Managed a few on the fly but the wind made it almost impossible to fish close to the rocks safely. I resorted to the conventional tackle for safety sake and landed about a dozen fat fall schoolies on Wild Eye rubber shad jigs. The wind was not waning at all and I was pretty cold and tired so I called it a day and headed back to the ramp. Took me an hour to get the boat on the trailer, due to a serious lack of water at the ramp. Had to wait quite awhile for the boats in front of me and then it took me an unusually long time to get my boat on the trailer. First time I have ever had to winch it all the way onto the trailer, I usually just drive it on. After an excruciatingly long bout of cranking it was finally on the trailer and I pulled out. After driving out I looked at the boat and it was not centered on the trailer, I thought about backing down and trying to get it straight but decided I liked the idea of getting home before midnight so I left as is and lashed it down crooked. Great day on the water with great company, bad ending but that's fishing in the fall. Had a blast Juro and I hope we can do it again sometime in the near future. I have some very large bass with your initials on them and they tell me that they want very much to try and break your Spey Rods :hehe: .
Mike Mayo
Out with 'hardcore' (striper)
Had a FANTASTIC morning out on Mike Mayo's Triton before the two-handed clinic! Left the house at o'dark thirty and met Mike near Barn Island ramp. It was so cold my boots were frozen to the stripping basket and a fly was embedded in the ice like an ant in amber. I doubled up on the fleece as Mike got the magic carpet ride started, boy those big four strokes are quiet and sweet ride on that big beamy hull.
Those of you who know Mike know he's hardcore (as Capt.Ray puts it) and a heck of an angler. His recent 54 pounder was testament to the hours he's put into his sport. It was great to get out there on a day when the birds were all over the place and fish were busting for acres.
Even though he's landed whale-sized bass, he still enjoyed every fish and noted how fat and healthy the sub-legal bass were that we found on top eating pea bunker. After some bluefish bite-offs, we got smart and put on the wire. Just in time as the surface action got pretty crazy from there!
Thanks to Mike's ability to sniff out where the fish are going to pop up next, we pretty much were in the right place at the right time all morning. I wanted to test the boat abilities of the Atlantis rods and got my chance for sure.
We had a little fun out there too - Mike put a teaser lure on with no hook and we grabbed the movie op... (warning large download)
Having fun with blues
Thanks striper - I had an awesome morning out there!

Journal Journal: 6 years, 1 day since my first journal entry. 15
I'm migrating to multiply. My nick there is ememalb.
Come say hi.
Multiply has all the stuff slash does, plus a whole lot more. I like it mucho better.
See you there. Or not...your call.
Hey, any of youse guys use minicom?
It's kickin my ass. I've got a cisco 2851 router I'm tryin to configurate on a wee bit.
The baud rate settings are 115200 on the router, and even when I set them to that in minicom it chokes like I'm force-feeding it Anna Nicole's bloated corpse.
Any ideas?
I'm ememalb, who the fuck are you?
Post your multiply usernames here, so we can keep it all in one place.
Unless you don't want to, in which case...ok.
So uh, yeah. It's friday up in dis bizzo once again. Which means, well, not a whole lot, I guess. Still got a few more things around the house to get knocked out, but other than that, we are just biding our time. Paying rent and a mortgage as well as two sets of utility bills is kicking the shit out of my budget. Like Jet Li fighting a 3 year old. Can't wait till the house closes in ATL at the end of this month.
Anyway, this means I'm Captain Lowkey, Defender of the Couch, Freer Of the Beers(TM) for the next few weeks or so. Which kinda sucks, as I'd like to get out and explore the city some. Patience, young Lowkey, patience.
Anyway, how you kids doing today? Hope ya'll have a nice day and a good weekend.
So, in driving around VA, I've determined something.
If you see someone driving like a complete tool, for example, making a right turn across 3 lanes of traffic from the left turn lane...check the plates...more than likely they're from Maryland.
Suppose your house in Atlanta was about to sell at the end of the month.
Suppose you plan on spending a nice chunk of the investment monies on the following things:
1) Two HDTVs. One large screen (50"+)for the living room, one smaller (in the 36-42" range) for the bedroom.
2) One receiver for living room
3) One DVD player for living room
4) wireless speakers for living room
If you were to suppose all these things, what would you get? This is my quandary. I'm not looking for a "dream setup", more like, say you had 6k to get all this stuff.
You might ask, Em, why do you need all this shit? Well, the answer is, my current tv doesn't support HD, it's down in my basement, and I have nothing upstairs in the living room to watch. Plus, TV (mainly movies and sports) is a big event in my house, I'd prefer to get a nice set or two for selfish because I can reasons. Capeesh?
Well, I waited for 21 years for that game. I woke up yesterday morning at 8:30 with one thought in my head: LET'S GO BEARS!! (clap-clap, clap-clap-clap).
By 9:15 I'm sitting there watching pregame coverage. By noon I'm geeked out of my head...having watched youtube highlights of the Bear's season...ugh. I'm too pumped up.
Head over to my friend's house at 3, with beer, brats, some cheese dip and chips.
At 4:30, the brats are on the grill, I've got a beer in hand, other friends are showing up, it's time to do this.
6:35pm: Kickoff!
Devin Hester, you da man!!!
OMG Payton threw a pick! This is gonna be a walk!
WOW what a run by Thomas Jones! Great catch Moose!
then the bottom fell out. Where was the vaunted D? Why were they giving such a huge cushion the the Colts receivers? Why the fuck can't you guys stop the run? Holy hell! This is getting annoying.
Well, halftime, we're down by two points, no biggie!
What do you mean the Colts are gonna go on a 942 play drive and score? Come the eff on!
Rex? What was that throw? I realize it's wet, but TJ has been running the ball solid! Turner, are you watching the game you're calling plays for?
Game over.
Good game, Colts.
My Bears just didn't show up. Everyone will blame Rex, but fuck, the "vaunted" Bears D couldn't make a stop. How many 3rd and 5s, 3rd and 8s did the Colts convert? Christ.
RUN THE BALL, TURNER! It's a fucking monsoon out there!
For all you Rex haters: Homey was scrambling the entire fucking game. The Bears o-line sucked. The Bears D sucked. Special teams, other than the first play of the game, sucked. The turn-overs sucked. The only player who it seems even realized this was the Super Bowl was Thomas Jones.
Everyone else: I'm ashamed to have watched that pitiful effort. You sacked Manning once. One time the entire game. You got ran on (Rhodes should have been the MVP, not Manning)
A huge let-down, to be sure...
Next year: The only player on D that doesn't have a contract through 2008 is Lance Briggs. You might know him as the guy who doesn't get credit for being the bad-ass he is. Urlacher gets all the credit, when play after play after play it's Briggs making the tackle, or busting through the gaps to stop the run, taking on the fullback head on.
I sincerely hope the Bears lock him up for a few more years at least. Next year, we'll get the hardest schedule in the NFC. Which means I don't see a 13-3 season...but the North is weak, especially with Favre coming back for one more year of abuse in Green Bay. We'll make the playoffs, and then it's "all bets are off"
I hate this time of year...nothing til hockey playoffs.
Mac:Hi, I'm a mac.
PC:And I'm a pc.
Mac:Hey pc.
PC:Hey mac.
PC:Hey mac, bring out "Teh Ubuntu".
Mac:Shh, "Teh Ubuntu's sleepin"
PC:Well, wake him up.
(Cut to Ubuntu humping pc's leg viciously)
(cut to Mac's mouth gaping wide open)
Mac: Holy cow, you can do that??!?
Ubuntu: HUMPINDALEG, HUMPINDALEG, HUMPINDALEG, HUMPINDALEG
PC: oh boy, that's warm!
Mac: wow.
How about it?
I'm mulling over a few choices...might go with Five Guys burger for lunch. That ish is goot.
It's time for your nap.
(is this thing on?)
So, my beloved Bears are playing in the superbowl.
This team is different from the team that played a hugely overachieving Seahawks. Everyone talks about Manning, and him getting to the SB, but on a larger scale, the Bears finally got past the 1st game of the playoffs, which is nice. That to me was huge. I watched that game with baited breath the entire time waiting for them to implode. I never worried during the Saints game.
This team has the chance to win, even though the NFC is a huge dog to the AFC again this year. Rightly so, as the AFC is a much tougher league...this year.
However, you don't go 13-3 over the course of a season and suck. The Bears did have an easy schedule, but for the most part they blew out the weak teams and outlasted the stronger teams. I'm liking their chances against the Colts much better than I liked their chances against the Pats, so that's a good thing.
This game is a validation, imo, of the system they have in place and the personnel they have on the field. I just wish Mike Brown wasn't out, he's such a difference maker.
Speaking of difference makers, Sexy Rexy has taken me on a roller coaster this year. I never waivered in my faith of my boy from FLA, unlike the media thinks pretty much every Bears fan has. He's the best shot we have. The game, luckily, doesn't solely depend on him having a better than average game. He's come up huge in the clutch, which for me is a sign of good things to come.
I'm not gonna kid myself, the Colts are a damned good team, and that D has tightened up a ton during their playoff run. However, if the Bears can do three things, they'll win this game.
1) Run the ball effectively.
2) control the clock. The longer they can keep Manning and Co off the field, the better.
3) stop the short pass. The deep ball isn't as much of a threat as the media portray. Any time a QB throws a long pass, there's a damned good chance it will get picked off. When the Bears played badly this year (Miami, Arizona) it was because they were missing tackles and getting nickle and dimed to death by the short pass. If they stop the short pass, they have a legit shot at winning this game.
If they don't, it will be a long day in the Em household.
GO BEARS! It's been 21 years, time to do this.
So, the company I work for now is roughly 1000 times smaller than the company I used to work for. No more giant undertakings to get an expense report in, I can simply walk over there and get it handled. No more waiting weeks for access to specific things, it's so simple.
It's very nice.
It's also nice to feel like everything I do makes a difference to this place, one of the reasons I was so burnt out was because I felt like no matter how many hours I worked, how hard I worked, or what I contributed, no one would care at my old work. So that's pretty awesome.
On a scale of 1-10, I'd say making this move to here is a solid 23.
How goes it this am* kids?
*for those in the US. For those in Europe/Aus/etc, happy afternoon.
I have a very small mind and must live with it. -- E. Dijkstra

N Y Attorney General is going after bank fraud tied in with the toxic Credit Default Swaps that brought down the housing market as well as the world wide economy.
First target is JP Morgan Chase for the practices of Bear Sterns. If anyone remembers, the government forced JP Morgan to acquire Bears Stearns and take a 29BILLION bailout!
This si the kind of crap that happens when big government creates crony capitalism. They forced the acquistion of Bear Sterns and now they want to fine J P Morgan for the fraud that was Bear Sterns!
Of course, the public will veiw this as Obama being tough on Wall St. (maybe has something to do with campaign contributions from Wall St being a fraction of what they were four years ago).
No doubt that Fraud exsist on a large scale on Wall St.(the Federal Reserve is the crime boss) it is the timing that makes this all look so suspicious! Why not two or three years ago?
What am I missing here?

This article, entitled "Teach Your Tot to Eat Their Veggies," comes from Liz Hayes, MomsEveryday correspondent from Central Wisconsin.
Toddlers can be notoriously fussy, especially when it comes to eating their vegetables. But parents shouldn't give up trying.
Researchers found that children can learn to eat new vegetables if they're introduced to them regularly before age two. It may take five to ten times before they finally learn to like them.
They also found that trying to mask the vegetables by sweetening them or adding other ingredients did not make a child more likely to eat their veggies.
Children under two are more likely than older children to try new foods, so introducing a variety of vegetables early and often is key.
Show your toddler that you love to eat your vegetables can boost your child's interest as well.

Glance at the image above and you'd think it was a photo of actress Emilia Clarke in-character as Daenerys Targaryen on HBO's Game of Thrones, right? Well, the most astonishing thing is that is a painting, as are all of the Game of Thrones images in Polish artist Anja Delisa's deviantART page.
According to The Mary Sue, Delisa used screenshots and photos as reference, but the result is all her. And here you thought you'd gotten good at Draw Something, right? We can't get over how utterly realistic these drawings look, down to the shape of the actors' features. To be honest, I haven't yet gotten into the show — probably because it would take over all my free time — but I can easily recognize Clarke, Sean Bean, Peter Dinklage, and the other famous faces.
Dalisa drew almost the entire cast, which is saying something considering all the major players. We've included less than half of them here; make sure to check out the rest!

The Westweg Trail in south-west Baden-Württemberg abounds with typical Black Forest idylls and excellent food and drink, and has a total climb of 12,000 metres – well worth any walker's respect.
The Black Forest in south-west Baden-Württemberg is the highest and largest of all Germany's mittelgebirge – a sort of medium-relief mountain range. The Westweg Trail begins in the 'gold town' of Pforzheim, on the northern edge of the Black Forest, and ends some 285 kilometres later in Basel in Switzerland. All the characteristic Black Forest landscapes are featured along the way, with mysterious upland moors to begin with. The trail heads down through the deeply cut valley of the Murg river, then up again and past the Schwarzenbach dam, over forested hills and to the Black Forest Ridgeway amid the lofty peaks of the northern Black Forest. The descent into the Kinzigtal valley ushers in the gentler topography of the Central Black Forest. From here, the Westweg clings to meadows and valleys; and en route to the Upper Black Forest it sweeps up and over a hill range marking the European watershed between the Black Sea and the North Sea. At Lake Titisee, the trail forks into an eastern variant over the Herzogenhorn and Hochkopf peaks, and a western variant over Mount Feldberg and Mount Belchen – two of Germany's tallest mountains outside the Alps. On both routes, walkers tick hoff one peak after another as they stride towards Basel on their Westweg experience.
Tip: Mount Feldberg
With an elevation of 1,493 metres, the Feldberg is the highest peak in Germany outside the Alps. It lies within Germany's largest and oldest nature conservation area, and offers breathtaking panoramic vistas of the surrounding region.

New Orleans has long been known to be irresistably alluring to many versatile and talented artists. The city's unique history, steeped in legend and arcane traditions, creates a romantic atmosphere and inspiration not found in any other American city.
Local artists--many of whom are nationally and internationally known--abound, along with many artists who were drawn to the city to capture its essence in a variety of media.
A prime example is the Jackson Square Artists Colony, a self-regulated group of artists who continue the longstanding tradition of the open-air art market at the historic Place d'Armes. Legend has it that the great artist and illustrator John James Audubon also found inspiration in this revered public square, surrounded by the lacelike wrought-iron balconies of the ancient Pontalba Apartments, in the shadow of a grand basilica, the St. Louis Cathedral.
You'll discover incomparable original paintings, photography, sculpture and other artwork while browsing distinctive shops on Royal Street and throughout the historic Vieux Carré, strolling along Magazine Street, or visiting the galleries, museums and studios of the Warehouse District. Or cross the mighty Mississippi River to marvel at the decorative float art that makes the city's Mardi Gras a world-class celebration.
But you don't have to visit us in person to own a representation of this historic city. New Orleans Art.com has collected a large variety of artwork in many different styles and media. Here, you will find the finest works of New Orleans artists in a convenient viewing format.
Art is the perfect collectible to capture the essence of this unique city.
Carol Zehner ArtCarol Zehner's art captures the classic scenery of New Orleans and the Deep South on notecards, Christmas cards, and lithographs. Zehner works in pen and ink to give detail and texture to her work, later adding watercolor to enhance the emotion of the artwork.

Boehner warns Obama: If you veto our Plan B bill, the automatic tax hikes on January 1 are all on you; Update: House to vote even if bill is doomed?
posted at 5:13 pm on December 19, 2012 by Allahpundit
This is a leverage ploy, right? The House passes Plan B, Reid kills it in the Senate, and then Boehner gets to say, "We did what Democrats wanted by taxing millionaires and they still prefer to go over the cliff." But … what if it doesn't even pass the House? Then Democrats get to turn around and say that the GOP caucus won't even agree to tax the rich when it's their own Speaker asking them to do so. As of last night, per National Journal, GOP vote counters weren't sure that Boehner had the votes. Grover Norquist did him a favor this morning by declaring that Plan B doesn't violate Republicans' no-tax pledge, and this'll help too:
Paul Ryan says he's voting for Plan B #heygirl
— Ed Henry (@edhenryTV) December 19, 2012
Meanwhile, though, several prominent conservatives, including Rep. Tim Huelskamp, held a presser this afternoon to denounce Plan B. The Club for Growth, which has been known to spend big to defeat wayward Republicans in primaries, came out hard against the bill today, as did the lobbying arm of the Heritage Foundation. According to The Hill's whip count, there are at least 10 House Republicans who are either leaning no or a firm no, which leaves Boehner with little margin for error if Pelosi holds her caucus together. The point here, of course, isn't to get Obama to sign the bill, just to stick Reid with it and force Senate Democrats to defeat something from the House that would allow tax hikes on millionaires. Ideally, seeing the House line up behind Boehner would also spur Obama to up his offer on the income threshold for the new tax hikes. It's a messaging and negotiating game, but a lot of Republicans are off-message. Even Orrin Hatch says he'd oppose the bill. At what point do the PR returns on this gambit diminish to the point where it's no longer worth pursuing? Or have I underestimated Boehner in thinking that he's not prepared to walk away from negotiations if/when the House does pass this thing and leave Democrats to either pass it themselves or go over the cliff?
Conn Carroll makes the case to reluctant conservatives that this is, alas, as good as it gets:
The other reality many conveniently forget to mention is that spending is also set to be cut by $1.2 trillion. Boehner's Plan B leaves those very real spending cuts untouched. Any deal with Obama would start by undoing the scheduled $1.2 trillion in spending cuts. Already, that is $1.2 trillion in the direction of bloated government. Plus, any deal with Obama would include far greater tax hikes than Plan B would allow, at minimum about $600 billion more. That is a total of $1.8 trillion in bigger government. How could any Republican defend that vote to their conservative constituents? Plus Plan B doesn't raise the debt limit either. Republicans can then use that to try and restructure the sequester into meaningful entitlement reform later this year.
So conservatives have a stark choice. They can vote for Boehner's Plan B, thus preserving the $1.2 trillion in spending cuts, and cut America's tax burden by some $4 trillion, or they can vote against the Boehner plan and allow the full $4.6 trillion tax hike to hit their constituents. There is no possible way a better deal will come out of Boehner's negotiations with Obama.
On the other hand, if Beohner fails to pass Plan B this week, the conservative negotiating position will be completely compromised. It will be clear no deal with conservatives is possible in the House.
Ultimately the strategic argument is an argument over how you think most House Republicans would respond to public pressure to reach a deal if we go over the cliff. Dave Weigel hears from GOPers on the Hill that they think the president, not Congress, would be blamed for any recession that ensues. I'm skeptical. The media frame won't be "the president vs. Congress," it'll be "Obama vs. the Republicans," and Obama's brand lately polls higher than the GOP's. Obama has the bully pulpit too: If the fiscal cliff standoff dragged on deep into January, he'd have not one but two major speeches (his inaugural and the State of the Union) in which to rally the public against the Republican position. There may well be groups of conservatives out there who'd hold the line even in the teeth of that sort of messaging onslaught. The House GOP isn't one of them.
Update: Victory through defeat?
Boehner and other GOP leaders believe that even if the measure fails, it will show President Obama that Republicans won't vote for a "fiscal cliff" deal unless it includes significant spending cuts.
"[GOP leaders] are just now trying to come up with some raw numbers and then I'm sure there'll be decisions after that but I think he's going to go through with it regardless," the lawmaker said. "It would show the president that he doesn't even have the votes for [tax cuts] with no [spending] cuts."
So the bet is that Obama will cave on spending rather than take us over the cliff and dare House Republicans to hold the line even as middle-class tax rates lurch upward? I'll take that bet.

I know that everyone is concerned about the return of K-1, but for the time being I find it fruitless to discuss what is going on with FEG. We all know that FEG plans to undertake a restructuring and return within the year, if this happens or not no one really knows. There are talks of dates, times, venues and also that the Japanese earthquake and tsunami pushed things back. The optimist says that is what happened, the pessimist says that is a rather remarkable excuse and a great way to make things look like they are moving along. We at this point have no opinion on this matter, as we all want K-1 back, but will just have to wait.
In the mean time there are great things happening around the world in kickboxing that aren't related to FEG or K-1. There is It's Showtime putting on a million shows and really stepping up to the plate in a unique way, then there is the Glory World Series put on by Martijn de Jong and Golden Glory, then of course there is Fight Code. Fight Code has come out of the gates swinging in 2011 and impressed everyone who has seen their first few shows this year. Just to illustrate that there is a lot going on in the kickboxing world, here is a calendar of their upcoming events. The "Dragon" events are for their tournament featuring K-1 World MAX Champion Giorgio Petrosyan, his brother Armen Petrosyan, Sudsakorn and Dzhabar Askerov. Check here for the full break down of the tournament.
Then there is the "Rhino" series, which take place either on alternate dates or at least alternate locations, it is a -105kg (Heavyweight) tournament, and while all the names have yet to be finalized, there are dates planned and of course fighters vying to get involved in this tournament.
