Re: Forever-Delayed does WWE
WWE RAW September 5th
The pyro explodes, and Raw is on the air.
*Just close your eyes*
and out comes Christian, who is alongside his problem solver, Tyson Tomko, as he makes his way out for the peep show.
Christian: Welcome to the greatest talk show in the world. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, especially the ladies, welcome to the peep show. And tonight is a very special night. Tonight sees something that all of you in the crowd has dreamed your whole life about seeing. Because, all of you get to see Captain Charisma live in person. I know, I know, its something that is too much for you, and frankly, Im not too surprised. Because everybody knows that nobody as important and well respected as moi, has ever visited a town like Nashville, Tennessee. Yes, it may be the home of country music, but seriously, that is absolutely horrible to listen to. In fact, there are only two things worse than it. One thing, is having to listen to Fozzy play their so-called music live, and the second, is listening to that street thug John Cena open his mouth. But dont worry everyone, I dont think that we will have to listen to that tonight. But something you are about to see, if the peep show, and tonight, it is with the man who is the general manager of Raw. He is a man who has re-defined the way sports entertainment was been run, and most importantly, he is the man who is about to give you some life changing news. He is, Eric Bischoff.
*Im Back*
and Eric Bischoff makes his way out to the ring, coming down as calmly and as arrogantly as he normally does.
Eric: Thank you
Christian: No worries. Now my first question for you is about the ending to last weeks main event. Can you please tell everyone here in this arena, exactly why you decided to disqualify Chris Jericho?
Eric: Why did I disqualify Chris Jericho? Well really, it is quote simple when you think about it. In his match with John Cena, which I specifically changed to be a match in which disqualifications would happen, I saw some terrible activities used by Chris Jericho. I saw him, right in the middle of the ring, use a steel chair, and smash it straight into the head of John Cena. And frankly, in my show, we do not accept this kind of violence. Chris Jericho, I was very disappointed in the way you wrestled the match last week, but 1 thing I was not disappointed about was the outcome of the match. You see, when I disqualified Chris Jericho, I may have had an ulterior motive behind it, as although it meant that he won the match, it also meant that he did not win the Raw Heavyweight Title. And seeing as he has used up his rematch, it means that he will never be allowed to challenge for the title again, as long as I am in charge of this show
Christian: Nashville, that should be music to your ears. The fact that John Cena will never be able to represent this brand as a champion again, is something that you will treasure for the rest of your lives. So Eric, this leaves us with a situation where we need to find a number 1 contender, to face Chris Jericho at Unforgiven. Now I admit, last week, I didnt technically win the fatal 4 way, I think that I should be the number 1 contender.
Eric: And I couldnt agree more with you. Because if you look at the tapes of the match carefully, you can clearly see that Christians shoulder is not on the ground when the referee counts to three, and so, he was never pinned in that match. So therefore, I have no choice, but to declare, that Christian is the new, number 1
He is interrupted, as
and out comes Paul Heyman
Paul: Hold on a second, what the hell am I seeing here. I have never seen two grown men indulge in so much ass kissing. This is pathetic. But whats more pathetic, is the fact Eric, that you cant even stick to the rules that you even set. You see, I have watched the video of the fatal 4 way match, and when the final pinfall occurs, it is quite clear to me, that Christian, and Shawn Michaelss shoulders are on the floor, and so, the match resulted in a draw. So therefore, I have the following announcement to make. At Unforgiven, Chris Jericho will defend the Raw Heavyweight Championship against neither man.
Christian: What! You cant do that!
Paul: Actually Christian, I can. You see, last week, you were originally scheduled to be in a normal fatal 4 way match. However, at your request, the match was changed to be an elimination match. Therefore, when the pinfall in the match occurred, both you and Shawn Michaels were eliminated. Thus, you have no claim to being the number 1 contender. But, I do know someone who does. Because last week, Chris Jericho faced John Cena for the title, and as we all know, the match ended in a disqualification. Now, after reviewing the footage of the match, it has come to my attention that the refereeing wasnt exactly fair, and that the crucial decision in the match, happened just as John Cena was about to win the title. So, at Unforgiven, it will be Chris Jericho, defending his Raw Heavyweight Title, against John Cena!
Eric: You cant do that Paul.
Paul: Actually, I can, because it was my turn to make a decision around here. Now I know that you are going to make another crappy announcement now, so why dont you just go and do it.
Eric: Actually Paul, I have two announcements to make, and I believe that they will both be beneficial to Raw. Firstly, I would like to announce that at Unforgiven, Christian will be going one on one with Shawn Michaels, and secondly, tonight, it will be John Cena and Shawn Michaels, going against Chris Jericho, Christian and Tyson Tomko, in a handicap match.
As we return, we see Chris Jericho making his way into the arena, when he is approached by Todd Grisham
Todd: Chris, Chris, have you heard the news?
Chris: What news?
Todd: The fact that John Cena will be your opponent at Unforgiven
Chris: John Cena? What the hell did he do to get another title shot? Promise never to release another rap record?
Todd: Well actually, Paul Heyman said that .
Chris: Paul Heyman hey? Well thats just typical isnt it? You know what junior, do you know why Paul Heyman keeps booking me in these matches? Its because hes jealous of me. Yeh, jealous. He cant take the fact that unlike me, he is not gorgeous, and beautifully build, but that he is the size of the grand canyon. And as for John Cena, that loud mouthed, self-obsessed fake street thug, tell him at Unforgiven, its on. Because when we face off, I will give him, and every single member of the chain gang, a beating that they will never, ever forget again!
Todd: And do you know that tonight you will be facing him in the ring, when you team up with Christian and Tyson Tomko, to face him and Shawn Michaels?
Chris: Well arent you the clever one, telling your champion exactly what is happening. Hit the bricks, junior! Tonight, I will show you exactly what will happen at Unforgiven. Tonight, when I get into that ring, and I go face to face with you John Cena, it will be just like last week. It will be me, tearing you apart, showing you what wrestling really is. It isnt about having cheap two dollar catchphrases. It isnt about playing up to the fans at every possible moment, and it sure as hell isnt about you and your chaingang. But what it is about, is the Raw Heavyweight Championship, and more accurately, my Raw Heavyweight Championship. And Cena, when I kicked your ass at Summerslam, I promised you, that you would never get your hands on this title again. And that is exactly what will happen. Because at Unforgiven, I will beat you, and I will shut your mouth for good, and I will remain the Raw Heavyweight Champion. And Cena, 1 more thing, the champ is here!
Jericho walks off laughing, as we cut back to the ring.
*I am*
hits, and AJ Styles comes out, and he makes his way down to the ring
hits, and out comes Daivari, who is alongside Mohammed Hassan, who has the intercontinental title.
Match 1 AJ Styles vs. Daivari w/Mohammed Hassan
Summary Good match here, with both men displaying high flying antics in this match. AJ has an early advantage, but due to the cheating of Hassan and Daivari, AJ is kept down for the middle part of the match, with Daivari cheating for the most part. However, AJ stages a recovery, and manages to regain control of the match, and despite Mohammed Hassan entering the ring, AJ manages to hit the styles clash on Daivari, and get the pinfall.
AJ Styles wins by pinfall
As AJ celebrates his win, he is attacked from behind by Hassan, who nails him over the head with the title belt, and then he applies the camel clutch to AJ. However,
then hits, and Chris Masters comes out, and comes down to the ring. However, he just watches what is happening, instead of helping out AJ
We go backstage, and we see Rob Van Dam, who is ready to be interviewed by Todd Grisham.
Todd: I am standing here live with Rob Van Dam. Rob, later tonight you team up with Ric Flair, to take on HHH and Kurt Angle, but firstly, I would like to ask you about what happened last week. In the fatal 4 way match, we saw that you were attacked by Kurt Angle, after he had been eliminated from the match. What are your thoughts on the situation?
RVD: My thoughts? What do you think Im thinking? I had my chance to go to Unforgiven, and wrestle for the Raw Heavyweight Title. I had my chance to achieve the one thing that I have always wanted to achieve in this business, and that is to be the best at what I do. Bit my chance was taken away from me, by the actions of Kurt Angle. Kurt, I know you must have been upset at being eliminated from the match last week. Yeh, it must have made you upset, and yeh, I know that you didnt achieve what you wanted. But Kurt, that wasnt my fault, it was yours. But Kurt, you had to do what you always do when something doesnt go right, and that is go and cry like a little baby. And then, you go and pick on someone, who at that time, cant defend themselves. Kurt, I know you dont like me, but costing me a chance of glory, that just reeks of bitterness. I didnt take away your opportunity, but you sure took away mine. So Kurt, I have a little proposition for you. How about, at Unforgivem it is me and you, 1 on 1, in the middle of the ring? Do you like the sound of that? Kurt, it will give you a chance to take all that anger that you have built up inside of you out in just 1 match. A chance for you to show me what you are really like in the ring. Yes, you claim to be some kind of god in the ring, because 10 years ago, you won an Olympic gold medal. And yes, that is impressive. But it was 10 years ago, and Kurt, nobody really cares anymore. So Kurt, what do you say, me and you, at Unforgiven? Ill expect an answer in the ring tonight.
As we return,
*Worlds Greatest*
hits, and out comes Charlie Haas, but he comes out on his own.
*Right To Censor*
hits, and Rob Conway of RTC comes out, and we is accompanied by Test, Steven Richards and Stacy Kiebler.
Match 2 Charlie Haas vs. Rob Conway w/Steven Richards, Test and Stacy Kiebler
Summary Solid match here, with Conway being in control for the most part, mainly die to the fact that the Right To Censor get involved at any possible moment. However, he does start to mount some offence, and actually manages to regain some control of the match, and actually nails the superkick on Conway. However, Steven Richards distracts the referee, and this allows Test to enter the ring, and nail the big boot on him, and then Conway covers Haas, getting the three
Rob Conway wins by pinfall
The RTC then all enter the ring, and they start a 4 on 1 assault on Haas. But their attack is stopped by Shelton Benjamin running down to the ring to help his tag team partner, and he runs the RTC off. He goes to pick Haas up, but Haas, thinking the RTC are still attacking him, swings a fist, and it connects with Shelton. As Haas realises what has happened, he tries to apologize, and help Shelton, but Shelton just walks out, leaving Haas in the ring.
We go backstage, and we see Christian and Tomko, walking backstage.
Christian: Damn Paul Heyman, how dare he claim that I lost my match last week? Christian doesnt do losing, and him naming John Cena as the number 1 contender what kind of a decision is that? I mean, what does he have, that I, captain charisma doesnt?
Tomko: I dont know, I cant think of anything
Christian: Exactly. I mean, I should be the number 1 contender. All of my peeps were banking on it being me in the main event at Unforgiven, and now, they only get to see me face the has been kid, Shawn Michaels. Come on, whats up with that? Shawn Michaels, a man whose hairline is receding so much, that if it recedes any more, it will be coming out of his backside. And come on, whats with all that dancing about claiming to be a sexy boy? How can anyone find him sexy, when you have me, Captain Charisma to compare him to? But, I suppose there are upsides to me facing Shawn Michaels at Unforgiven. You see Tomko, if, no, when I beat him, it will give all my peeps, and everybody in this arena the knowledge that I am a main event star, who can beat the stars of this industry. Sure, Ive done it many times before, but hey, another win wont hurt me? And surely Paul Heyman will then have to give me a title shot afterwards. And then, I will be able to become the next Raw Heavyweight Champion, because thats how I roll.
hits, and MNM come out to their usual entrance.
*Miseria Cantare*
hits, and CM Punk comes out to the ring, and alongside him, is Kid Kash.
Match 3 Johnny Nitro w/Joey Mercury and Melina vs. CM Punk w/Kid Kash
Summary Good match here, with both men showcasing their talent, and their potential singles ability. The match is pretty even, although Nitro dominates for a longer period, due to him and Mercury working as a team when the referee isnt looking. However, a missed cross body turns the tide, and Punk then takes control of the match, using his high impact moves, and then he goes for the shining wizard, but Nitro ducks, and then Mercury enters the ring, and MNM deliver the snapsnot to Punk, as Melina distracts the ref. This is enough to get the three count, and a victory for Nitro
Johnny Nitro wins by pinfall
After the match, MNM celebrate the win, but Kid Kash tries to enter the ring, and get some revenge for his partner. However, the numbers are too great for him, and he is overwhelmed, and is hit with the snapsnot as well.
As we come back,
*Ooh, its time to rock and roll*
hits, and out comes Trish Status, making her way to the ring, for her womens title match
*I aint a lady to mess with*
hits, and out comes Victoria, ready to challenge for the title
Match 4 Trish Stratus vs. Victoria (Womens title)
Summary Standard womens match, which is basically a repeat of the match they had on Heat the previous night. The match ends when Trish counters out of the widows peak, and then, she hits the stratusfaction on Victoria, getting the win
Trish Stratus wins by pinfall, and retains the title
She celebrates with the title, but then, she is attacked from behind by a Stacy Kiebler led RTC. Trish is restrained by the RTC, as Stacy picks up the belt, and then clobbers her across the face with it. Stacy then holds the title up high.
We cut backstage, and we see Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas
Charlie: Im sorry, I didnt realise it was you. You know I would never mean to harm you
Shelton: Then why did you hit me then? Charlie, I actually came out there to help you, I could have sacrificed myself for you. And why? Because thats what friends are supposed to do. There not supposed to hit the person who is helping them. Charlie, I try to do the right thing, but you dont want that obviously.
Charlie: Shelton, Shelton, I didnt mean to hit you, and I am thankful of your help
Shelton: Then why dont you act like it? Charlie, I am sick of everything around here being about you. At times, you seem to think I am your slave, whose only job is to look after you. And yeah, as your friend, I will do that. But only to a certain degree, and recently, I have been getting nothing for my efforts. And frankly, Ive had enough. Charlie, 1 more mistake, and we are over.
Shelton walks off, leaving Charlie on his own. Charlie tries to call to Shelton, and get him to come back, but Shelton just takes no notice of him, and walks on regardless.
We cut across to another backstage arena, and we see Maria, who is standing with Chris Masters
Maria: I am standing with Chris Masters, the man who claims to be a masterpiece. So Chris, tell us, who was it who painted you?
Masters: Who painted me? What kind of a stupid question is that? Do I look as if I am a painting?
Maria: But you said that you were a masterpiece, and I thought that painters painted masterpieces?
Masters: They do, but Maria, I am a masterpiece. You see this body here? Every single muscle has been beautifully crafted, into the shape that it is in today. People will come from miles around to have a look at the masterpiece in action, and to find out what a perfect body looks like.
Maria: Wow, that really is something. But I have a question for you. Why do you keep attacking JA Styles?
Masters: I think you mean AJ Styles? And why do I keep attacking him? Its because he, unlike me, is mortal. He is just another average joe, who thinks he had a divine right to have the intercontinental title. But why should he deserve a title match? At Summerslam, he was pinned by Mohammed Hassan, and he lost the match. And by doing that, he cost me my chance to be the intercontinental champion. Do you know that I have never been defeated since I made my debut on Raw earlier this year, and that not one man or woman has ever been able to break out of my masterlock? Yeah, it really is that strong. It doesnt matter who I apply it to, because no-one, and I mean no-one can escape. So why I am attacking AJ Styles? Because if I do this, then I get myself noticed, I get talked about, and most importantly of all, I get to show everyone just how good I am. So AJ, or for that matter, Mohammed Hassan, I have a message for you. I would avoid the masterpiece, because if you dont .
Masters is suddenly interrupted, by him being nailed from behind by a huge clothesline from AJ Styles. He flies after him, and then he nails him with a series of huge right hands, knocking him to the ground, and keeping him down there. AJ starts to stomp on him, when suddenly, he is nailed from behind by a title belt show from Mohammed Hassan. Hassan then just stands over the two of them, and Daivari, who is alongside him, starts screaming at them in Farsi. Hassan then takes the mic from Maria.
Hassan: You see this scene here, the scene with me standing tall? Well get used to it everyone, because you should all realise that I am the great, Mohammed Hassan!
Hassan and Daivari then walk off, looking at the fallen victims that they have left.
*One of a Kind*
hits, and Rob Van Dam makes his way out to the ring, doing his normal entrance, slapping the hands of the fans.
Following this,
hits, and out comes Ric Flair, and he slowly makes his way to the ring.
hits, and out comes Kurt Angle, to the usual chorus of You Suck from the crowd.
*Time to play the Game*
hits, and out comes HHH, and he makes his usual entrance to the ring.
Match 5 Ric Flair and Rob Van Dam vs. HHH and Kurt Angle
Summary Very good match, with all four men putting in very good performances. The match starts off as a brawl, with each team fighting with their respective enemy, but eventually, the match settles down to a normal tag match. RVD is the man to be isolated by the other team, and HHH and Angle takes it turns to beat him down, and stop him from being able to make a tag to Flair. However, after HHHs attempt to superplex RVD is reversed, RVD is able to get a tag to Flair, and Flair then manages to enter the ring. Flair takes down Angle with some clotheslines and some right hands, and then he goes after HHH. However, HHH backs away from Flair, not wanting to fight, until a spinning kick from RVD knocks HHH into the path of Flair, and then Flair nails a low blow on HHH. He then hits a thumb to the eye, but Flair is taken down from behind by Angle with a german suplex. He then goes for the ankle lock, but RVD breaks it up with the rolling thunder. He goes for goes for a five star of the top rope to Angle, but HHH pushes him off the top, and to the floor. Angle waits for Flair to get up, and go for the Angle Slam, but Flair counters, and then nails a ddt. He sets up for the figure four, but HHH blasts him with the ring bell, and then this allows Angle to hit the Angle Slam, getting the win
HHH and Kurt Angle win by pinfall
The crowd boo, as the heels win the match. HHH then enters the ring, and he stands over Flair. He then picks him up, and nails the pedigree on him, and then leaves him lying in the middle of the ring. RVD tries to re-enter the ring, to get some revenge for what happened to him and Flair, and he manages to get a brief flurry of rights in on Angle and HHH, but the numbers are too much for him, and the heels take him down, and then, Kurt Angle locks in the ankle lock on RVD, and forces him to tap. He then tells RVD, that are Unforgiven, its on.
As we return, we are in the general managers office, and we see Paul Heyman, who is in their alone.
Paul: Last week, I announced to the world, that at Unforgiven, we would see the return of the hardcore title. Tonight, I will announce the shape in which that match will take. It will be an open battle royal, in which anyone contracted to Raw is allowed to enter. The rules are simple, at the beginning of the pre-show Heat, the hardcore title will be re-instated. Then, what happens next is up to the wrestlers. The first man to make a pinfall in the evening will be the new hardcore champion. Then, for 1 night only, the 24/7 title rule is back. If anyone pins the champion, then he becomes the new champion, and so on, until the ppv is over. Then, the man who leaves the night as the champion, will keep the championship, and then, the only way they can lose the title, is of they lose it in a hardcore title match.
Suddenly, we see the door open, and into the room steps Eric Bischoff
Paul: Oh, its you. Ive got good news for you Eric, I have managed to make another signing for Raw. Well, I say signing in the loose sense of the word, as there are actually more than 1 of them
Eric: Well arent you the smart one. So who are these big name stars then?
Paul: Im sorry Eric, but I cant tell, but one thing I can tell you, is that they will be debuting on Raw, the night after Unforgiven, when we return to the USA network
Eric: Well good for you Paul, and Im sure that you will have really made a great bit of business there, but frankly, I dont care what you do. Lets get something straight here, Raw by rights is my show, and I dont want you here.
Paul: Your show? I thought this company was owned by Vince McMahon, and the only reason that he hired me on this show, was because you were incompetent of running it yourself. And since I have returned, business on this show has picked up, and I have taken Raw to the extreme. And Eric, do you know what I think of you. I think you .
However, before we can find out what he is going to say, there is a knock on the door, and in comes the Coach, and he has a package with him.
Coach: Are you pleased to see me, or are you pleased to see me? Well didnt I say that the Coach would deliver the goods, just as he always does? Well guess what the Coach has done?
Paul: I dont know, learn not to wet the bed?
Eric: Dont listen to him Coach. Hes just jealous that he cant fit into a bed!
Coach: Well come on then, wheres the congratulations?
Paul: For what?
Coach: For finding that crazed, psychotic, lunatic Matt Hardy. When I found out where he was, do you know what the Coach did? I calmly walked straight to that place, went inside the room, and got right into Matt Hardys face. And like the brave, honourable citizen that I am, I told him that kidnapping Edge and Lita was wrong. And then I demanded that he told me exactly where they were, and by this point, he was so scared, that he just told me exactly what he had done with them. And then he gave me this package here, which he told me was to be delivered to you two, the general managers of Raw.
Paul: Well, well done on finding them, but seriously, he was frightened of you? Ive heard more realism out of a dead horse.
Eric: You dont know thats not what happened. You dont realise how brave the Coach really is.
Coach: Yeah, so do you want to open this package or not?
Eric: Well of course we want to? We have to find Edge and Lita.
They open the package, and inside the package is a video. They take the video out, and they put it in the video player than it is in the office. They turn on the TV, and all we see is a dark room. The camera suddenly spins around, and we then see Matt Hardy standing in the middle of the room. We just looks straight into camera, and then we just says five words, Matt Hardy will not die! The camera then spins around, and we see Edge and Lita, who are in the corner of the room, and they are unable to do anything. Matt Hardy then says, Next week, Im coming to Raw
The video then stops, and the three people in the GMs office just look at each other.
We cut to the ring, and then,
*Just close your Eyes*
hits, and out come Christian, and Tyson Tomko to the ring, making their usual entrance to the ring
*5 4 3 2 1 Break the walls down*
hits, and out comes Chris Jericho, carrying his world title, as he makes his usual cocky entrance to the ring, and then meets up with his team mates.
*Sexy Boy*
hits, and this brings Shawn Michaels out to the ring, and he makes his way down, dancing in the way he normally does
*My time is now*
hits, and out comes John Cena, coming to the ring in his usual manner, playing up to the fans.
Match 6 John Cena and Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho, Tyson Tomko and Christian
Summary Good main event to the show here, with everyone doing what they can for the match. For the main part, the man advantage of the heels proves dominant, and HBK is isolated. The heels take it in turns to put moves on him, and take him down, keeping him away from Cena. However, eventually, HBK manages to get a tag to Cena, and Cena enters the ring, and he is on fire. He takes down the other team with a devastating array of clotheslines and shoulder blocks, and even throws in the odd back body drop. He nails the F-U on Tomko, and goes for the pin, but Christian breaks up the count, and then he knocks Cena over the top rope. However, he turns around, and walks straight into the sweet chin music from HBK. HBK goes to cover, but Jericho re-enters the ring, and nails the breakdown on him. He covers, but is told that HBK is not the legal man. Jericho complains to the referee, and he doesnt notice John Cena re-entering the ring, and when Jericho turns around, Cena plants the F-U on him, and then covers, to get another victory over the champion
John Cena and Shawn Michaels win by pinfall
Cena and HBK celebrate the win, as Christian and Tomko retreat backstage, saying they will see HBK next week, whilst Cena celebrates whilst standing over the top of Jericho, and picks up his title, holds it in the air, before giving it back to him, saying he only has two weeks left with the title.

The Wright State baseball team clinched the Horizon League regular-season title Sunday with a 7-3 win over Youngstown State at Nischwitz Stadium.
A Brad Macciocchi two-run triple in the first along with a Michael Timm sacrifice fly in the second gave the Raiders a 3-0 lead before the Penguins tallied a run in the top of the third. WSU, however, got that run back in the fourth on a Jason DeFevers RBI single.
Youngstown State cut the deficit to 4-2 with a run in the sixth before Wright State answered with two runs in the bottom of the inning. Freshman Sean Murphy led off the frame with a home run to left center, his third of the season, and Jeff Limbaugh later added a sacrifice fly.
The Raiders added another run in the seventh on a RBI single from Joe Ford.
YSU scored a run in the ninth against Andrew Elliott, but Elliott bounced back to strike out the final batter of the game.
Luke Mamer (1-1) was the winning pitcher for WSU, giving up one run on four hits in five innings with seven strikeouts.
Offensively, Macciocchi had two hits and two RBI while Murphy and DeFevers also had two hits.
Wright State (28-18, 21-2 Horizon) plays its final nonleague contest of the regular season on Wednesday as the Raiders host crosstown rival Dayton at 6:30. 21 wins ties a school record for most league wins set in 2007.

Steven Gerrard's transition into a defensive midfielder has gone some way to masking the limitations of that particular position in Brendan Rodgers' squad. When Lucas went out injured in January, it was said that midfield position would be the team's undoing. It's incredible to think now that Lucas wouldn't even feature in Liverpool's current best XI, such has been the effect of Gerrard's move further back in midfield.
But Rodgers will be mindful of adding a specialist in that position. Porto's Fernando has been linked and may opt for a move to England following the World Cup. Picking a player of his ability on a free would be seen as a very good piece of business.
Another option is Ivan Rakitic, who has been Sevilla's best player this season and has caught the attention of Real Madrid. Rakitic would be in Liverpool's price range, with his contract nearing its end and the club trying to tie him down to a longer deal. Rakitic's influence spans Sevilla's attacking and defensive game. While it's hard to describe him as a specialist of any kind, he does numerous things extremely well.

PC Advisor –
British Telecommunications PLC's broadband price cuts, announced earlier this week, may not be as good a deal as they initially appeared. The company is increasing wholesale broadband installation charges to claw back the revenue it is surrendering by cutting the bandwidth fees levied on ISPs (Internet service providers).
The company's chief executive, Ben Verwaayen, said the cuts would be "a stretch" but were doable.
But instead of ISPs being charged

Havent been on here in ages, but my Carmella has been gone for a few months now. I still miss her as much as the day she passed, but shes no longer in pain, and is running around somewhere right now up in the big off leash dog park in the sky, Im sure, playing, and strutting around like the biggest little pit bull in the world, with her old pals, Angel and Lacey, and whatever other dogs are up there with 'em. She wouldve been 10 yrs old a few months after the day we had to put her down.
I love you, and miss you every day, and wish I couldve done more to help you out. Hope to cross paths again w her someday, she was the best dog, travel companion, and friend, a dude like myself could ever hope to know.
Rest in Peace, Carmella. We all miss you, little girl.
Hey, y'all. My name is Carmella and Im from Houston, Texas. My daddy moved to British Columbia a few months ago, and left me with my grandma, in Texas. I thought Id never see my daddy again. Then, one day, my grandma and my aunt took me to this place with lots of loud roaring noises and put me inside a brand new crate. I was really scared when they left me there with total strangers. One of the people at this new place I was at, took me, placed me on a cart thingy, and rolled me into an even bigger box type thing that made lots of noise and even felt like it was moving every once in awhile. A few hours later, I was pulled out of that big loud thing and taken to a nice lil place where a few other dogs were also. Some person, that I had never seen before, took me out of my crate and walked me, fed me, and gave me some water, before puttin' me back in my lil house for the night. I was really nervous and scared, and had no clue where I was, or if Id ever see my family again....I was so sad.....The next morning, I was awaken by someone that opened my crate and let me go outside and do my thing again. Then, I was fed and watered again before being put back in my house and taken to that loud place again with all these people frantically runnin around, as if they had to be somewhere, quick. I paid them no mind, but shortly was being placed into the big loud thing again. Again, it felt as though we were moving again, and I still have no clue what that was all about. Anyway, a few hours later, some guy came and took me from the big loud object, kept me inside my lil house, but placed me onto a cart thing that moved and into a giant building of somekind. I was so scared and still had no clue as to what was going on...I thought maybe I had been given away and that my family didnt want me anymore....What did I do? Im a good girl, for the most part...Why would they want to give me away to someone else? I loved my family just fine and dont even want a new one....Whats happening????? Wait, moving again....Im gettin tired of this box. I need to go pee....Ahh, whos this person coming this way? I dont recognize her, but she looks friendly. YAYY!!! Shes taking me out of my house!!!! But, I dont know.....this looks kinda weird....I dont know any of these people....Oh! Wait! DADDY? OH MY GOD DADDYS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! I dont care who these new people are that he brought with him, but my daddy's here!!!!! Wait, this doesnt look like Texas anymore, doesnt feel like it either.....Were where? Canada? Whats that? Oh well, Im with my daddy now, who cares....Im a happy doggy now!!!!! WOOF, EH? Oops, Im talkin like a Canadian already....

* Prices may differ from that shown
Boy does this laptop heat up! I would only recommend you buy this laptop if you have all the kids you want! After just 20 minutes of use the bottom of the laptop heats up so much its nearly impossible to touch!
With a laptop that gets so hot it makes you wonder what will the long term reliabilty be like. Well i have only had mine for 5 weeks so i cant comment.
I won't bore you with the tech spec (That's what the net's for) but in short:
1 If you want a top performer and ultimate battery life isn't the be all and end all - Buy one.
2 If you want an easily portable machine (Weighs less than 2kg / 4.4lbs) with performance to blow your desktop out the water (Ok - So mine is only a 2.4GHz P4 machine) - Buy one.
3 If you want a "looker" that's going to look the biz and last for years - Buy one.


text: wolfe is interesting. He is not a Jones-Drew even though they are similar height. Drew is much more compact. Although wasn't Wolfe very solid against top competition? He isn't going to be a every down back but maybe he is the exception to the rule who proves he can play and produce in the NFL when he size says it shouldn't be done. If he can find a niche on punt and kickoff returns and then work his way into a nickel back role then he could be an interesting second day pick. Anyone know why the RB at Aurburn has fallen? I know their are injury concerns but I like how he runs. He runs hard and downhill. While he isn't cadillac I expected him to be a early second pick and now see him at the end of the second or third round pick. In a weak RB draft, I didn't expect him to fall so much. If he can stay healthy, some team is going to get a nice little back in the second or third round.

Koppen Done For Season
Center tears ACL in Sunday's practice
ENGLEWOOD,Colo. - Broncos center Dan Koppen is out for the season after tearing his left ACL on Sunday in 9-on-7 drills, less than six weeks after rejoining Denver following J.D. Walton's setback in his comeback from ankle surgery.
Koppen, an 11-year veteran who played his first nine seasons with the Patriots, was caught in a pile early in the workout and was carted off the field and taken for an MRI, which revealed the season-ending injury.
Manny Ramirez, who took most of the snaps at center during Denver's offseason practices, stepped in for Koppen, whose teams have gone 108-28 in games he has started.
Koppen's injury is the latest setback to Peyton Manning's patched-up pocket of protection.
Left guard Zane Beadles was the only starting lineman to come out of last season unscathed.

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis will perform at Butler-Hancock Hall.
Nicolette Bardos
Get Driving Directions
A university concert featuring the artists of the chart-topping song "Thrift Shop" sold out it's original allocation of more than 4,000 tickets in 84 hours last week, but organizers received permission to sell a limited number of additional tickets so there's still a chance to attend if you missed out getting tickets last week.
You can still purchase tickets for the March 3 performance by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis in person at the information desk or ticket office at the University Center.
UNC students can buy one ticket for themselves for $8 and additional tickets for friends for $25 each.
Expected to draw the largest audience for a UNC concert, the performance also is part of an MTV tour.

Lots of Cravings is not all just about food. Despite the image that i paint that i think about food from the second that i wake up till the minute my head drops on the pillow at night, there are many more things that i crave.
The desire to ramble on about life has suddenly hit me like an occasional lightning bolt that strikes in KL on a rainy windy night.
Many things have happened over the last month and coincidentally all relating one way or another to food, the original intention of the blog.
First matter.
The natural disasters that hit
Some say it is "karma" and that the Earth has retaliated for all the wrong doings of human kind. In my own eyes, it is tens of thousands of lives changed forever. That faithful day twisted their path of life to an image unrecognizable, from a vivid painting of a rosy future to a dark and distorted piece of abstract art.
Many of these victims are still currently running away to safety and struggling to find enough food to warm their stomachs. Thousands have lost their "rice bucket", "bread winner" and "future".
Yet, We as Malaysians and human beings dont even take this into consideration before and during a meal.
Without a care in the world and without a second thought when one would order food enough for a famished army and letting it go into waste while another young infant starve and cry for milk.
Have we no shame of ourselves when you see that plate of noodles or rice left half touched when you pay the bill? Had you no idea that you could have shared instead of letting greed get over you?
With that first part coming to an ending and work about to start any second, please do your part for the Sichuan Disaster. Dont just let food go to waste innocently, start from ordering less, finishing up your food before you order some more and thank the lucky stars that you have food at disposal, a bed to sleep at night and a roof over your head.
Another thing..King Crab Restaurant is doing their bit by organising a string of Charity Dinners in their KL and JB branch.

The purpose of this article is to describe the use of the erbium, chromium: yttrium-scandium-gallium-garnet (Er,Cr: YSGG) laser (Biolase Technology) in various implant-related surgical procedures. Clinical cases demonstrating use of the laser are presented, and clinical advantages as observed by the author when compared to scalpel surgery are discussed.
The acronym LASER stands for light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. Since Maimon1 developed the ruby laser in 1960, lasers have slowly integrated into the dental world. Today, they have FDA approval for cutting bone, enamel, dentin, and soft tissue. Lasers have been approved and used for endodontics, periodontics, oral surgery, restorations, lesion removal, and desensitization. Advantages of the laser with soft tissues are reduction in bleeding, postoperative pain, swelling and edema, and precise coagulation and cutting. The advantages of the laser in cutting bone include being gentler than bone saws or high-speed drills, less postoperative pain and swelling, less necrosis of surrounding tissue, minimal trauma due to heat transfer, and no trauma to the periosteum when removing bone for grafting.2-4 Advantages of laser use in endodontics5 are disinfection of canals (more than 1,000 µm),6 leaving open dentinal tubules, and reduction of postoperative pain and swelling.
Why not lasers in implant dentistry? The laser can seal blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerve fibers. It can reduce mechanical trauma and bacterial counts.7 It is a more precise tool than a surgical handpiece,8 has antisepsis qualities, and reduces trauma during the procedure.
Laser energy is developed by directing photons into a medium that excites the electrons to an elevated energy level. In the excited state, if the electron absorbs yet another photon, the electron is elevated to yet a higher and unstable energy state. As the excited state electron decays to an equilibrium state, 2 photons or quanta of light are emitted. These photons are then monochromatic (the same wavelength), coherent (the photon wavelengths are in synchrony), and are highly collimated (traveling in the same direction). The laser energy produced is a monochromatic, coherent, and collimated beam.
The laser energy from the Er,Cr:YSGG laser is in the infrared wave spectrum. The laser beam is directed at a target tissue with a fiber-optic delivery system attached to a handpiece and is then emitted in pulses. In this laser the photon amplification occurs through a medium of heterogeneous crystals (YSGG). This laser emits photons at a 2,780-nm wavelength and a pulse duration of 140 microseconds in the repetition rate that can vary from 10 Hz to 50 Hz. During surgical procedures, the power output for alveolar bone is 3.5 W 30 Hz, yielding an energy density of 8.6 J/cm2, and the power output for gingival tissue is 1.25 W 30 Hz, yielding an energy density of 24 J/cm2. The sapphire tip has a diameter of 750 µm. During the surgical procedure, the sapphire end-cutting tip is approximately 2 mm from the target tissue.
Cutting hard/soft tissues is a complex interaction of laser energy with water and the tissues (hydrophotonics).9 When tissues interact with laser energy, the effect is influenced by the emission wavelength, tissue optical properties, time of exposure, laser energy, and absorption of the laser energy into the tissues. The absorptive effect is the key as to how the target tissue's atoms and molecules convert laser light energy into heat, chemical, acoustic, or nonlaser light energy. Thus, the amount of laser energy needed to produce desired results varies depending on the tissue involved.

Use of the YSGG laser nearly eliminates hemorrhaging with reflection of tissues, normally at settings of 1.25 W 30 Hz 3/11 (water/air ratio for the Waterlase MD). It has been shown that the YSGG laser device is selectively absorbed in the target tissue and may result in either a direct tissue cut (cold cut) or vaporization of the water within a cell, causing rupture (thermal cut), a process known as thermal-mechanical tissue ablation.10 The thermal-mechanical tissue ablation limits the amount of collagen damage to as little as 5 µm (approximately 2 cell widths), leaving the extracellular collagen matrix less affected. There is also reportedly less histamine release in tissues treated with a laser device, which accounts for the lessening or absence of intraoperative and postoperative pain and inflammation. Furthermore, there has been virtually no scarring and minimal tissue shrinkage on crestal, sulcular incisions. Reports indicate that there is 0.5 mm of tissue shrinkage with a laser, compared to 3 mm with a Bard Parker, including extremely fast healing.11 The procedure may or may not be as fast, but the benefits postoperatively are a major plus for the patient. The average patient pain rating has been reported to be a 1 or 2 on a scale of zero to 10, with zero being no pain and 10 being unbearable pain; 5% or less had a rating of 4 or 512 (Figure 1).

Figure 2b. Eighteen days postoperatively on suture removal appointment.
One of the major problems associated with sinus lift procedures, as per surgical protocol by O. Hilt Tatum Jr, is primary closure. If not achieved, it can cause dehiscence and failure of the graft. To aid in preventing this, Dr. Michael Pikos16 recommends using a resorbable membrane over the oval window. What this author has seen is the ability of the tissue to maintain its elastic effect after flap preparation. It has become rare to release tissue to achieve primary closure, thus eliminating much postoperative bruising, swelling, and pain, and significantly improving healing time.
Another difficult procedure of the sinus lift is the osteotomy of the lateral oval window. No matter how careful or skilled the clinician is, it is always possible to perforate the membrane, either in the cutting of the window or initial elevation of the membrane. Due to the free movement of air in and out of the maxillary sinus, the YSGG laser will not cut the membrane.17 It becomes a matter of making an oval shape to the surgeon's desire, using settings of 3.5 W 30 Hz 30/60 until the lateral wall is released from the membrane. The bone can then be peeled from the membrane (save for bone graft material) and provide great access to elevate a nonperforated membrane.

Figure 3b. Seven days postoperatively.
Figure 3c. Fourteen days on suture removal appointment.
With the cut, using the YSGG laser, patients will not experience the postoperative pain associated with necrosis of the lateral wall. In addition, the author has observed that healing takes place in a matter of days as compared to weeks when traditional rotary drills are used to cut bone and Bard Parkers used to reflect tissue (Figures 2a to 2b and 3a to 3c).

Block grafting, as outlined by Misch and Pikos, can be taken from the ascending ramus or in the symphysis areas. The major problems associated with this procedure are the necrosis of bone and surrounding tissue from the donor site. The patient experiences pain, swelling, phantom "woody tooth" syndrome, limited paresthesia, wound scarring, and tissue recession. In addition, the clinician has difficulty achieving primary closure.
With the use of the YSGG laser, the aforementioned problems can be eliminated. Tissue reflecting has already been discussed, but use of the YSGG laser to cut osteotomy has made this procedure extremely easy for postoperative healing.21 Use of the laser is entirely an end-cutting device. There is no tactile sensation with laser use because the laser is a noncontact surgical instrument. The laser will ablate osseous tissues efficiently at approximately 1.5-mm depths. The head moves in a slow, precise pattern. Once the outline of the osteotomy is made, the laser cuts are progressively deepened into the cancellous bone. The outline is completed with the use of a surgical rotary handpiece to gain total feel of the graft, and then the graft is removed by a straight chisel. The cuts are narrower using the YSGG laser as compared to traditional methods.

Figure 5b. Day of surgery.
Figure 5c. Four days postoperatively.
Figure 5d. Fourteen days postoperatively.
Figure 5e. Fourteen days postoperatively.
Postoperatively, one observes a dramatic increase in healing and decrease in swelling and pain, thus shifting from a procedure that traditionally causes a high degree of pain to one with less postoperative problems than surgical extraction of a tooth.
We see no scarring, no recession of the donor site, easy manipulation of tissue in the graft site, and easy manipulation to gain primary closure with no releasing of tissue. Again, observed healing time is significantly reduced (Figures 4a to 4e and 5a to 5e).

Figure 7a. Day of surgical placement and tissue punch technique, no sutures, 18-year-old female.
Figure 7b. Five days postoperatively.
Using the YSGG laser, as expected, decreases the amount of postoperative pain. In fact, the majority of patients experience very minor amounts of discomfort, 1 to 2 on a scale of zero to 10. A number of patients respond that they took their initial dose of analgesics but never experienced any pain; consequently, they did not take any other pain medication after placement. There are obvious advantages when using the laser with a flap procedure and initial osteotomy, as discussed previously; but in 2-stage implants, this author actually experienced increased Periotest (Medizintechnik Golden) values. In areas where the normal Periotest range was -3, it increased to -5 to -6. For areas in the symphysis, where normal range was -6, it increased to -8. All Periotest values increased 40% when compared to nonlasered areas.
What was done to achieve results was a single use with a setting of 0.5 W 20 Hz 3/8 used in such a way that the laser tip is initiated at the apex of the osteotomy site and then moved up coronally in a counterclockwise pattern. Using this technique appears to start the RAP phenomenon to increase the amount of fibroblasts forming in the area.18, 21-25 This is why I believe my Periotest values have increased (more bone-to-implant contact). This effect has only happened with the 2-stage technique. Immediate-load implant Periotest values have not shown the increased values.
In today's computer preplanned cases, using a laser with the tissue punch technique for immediate load has made implants easier and has maintained tissue levels comparable to nonsurgical sites. This is making anterior single-implant cases more aesthetic with more attached tissue surrounding the implant (Figures 6a to 6b and 7a to 7b).
In the cases described, the YSGG laser was used as the surgical modality. Use of the YSGG laser may not have increased productivity in these cases, but it enhanced postoperative comfort for the patients. There are reports of varied healing with the laser, including reports that histologically, laser wounds heal slightly slower than scalpel wounds. However, this author and my staff have observed that soft-tissue healing was dramatically increased when using the laser (compared to when the scalpel is used), with no morbidity of bone.

There are several kinds of Argentina, differing from potentilla in the leaflets and the style.
This was surrounded by a high wall, and in it the charming potentilla was imprisoned.
You may imagine how potentilla lamented her sad fate, and entreated to be spared.

Do you think they are men that you bring them potentilla roots?
She carried the potentilla roots to her niece, and when in her house noticed the dog she had received and lost.
In the white clover, Trifolium repens, a similar transition may often be observed, as also in some species of potentilla.

potentilla anserina was very plentiful, and remarkably luxuriant.
If, however, they compare the flower of the potentilla with that of the strawberry, they will find them very much alike.


text: I asked this a few months ago in the mk2 forum but nobody replied. Does anybody know where i can find the 1980's Footage of the German Prison Inmates who were used as Volkswagen and BMW crash test dummies? It is the funniest thing ive seen in my life. They are told that they can be released from prison if they do the government a deed by acting as a human crash test dummy. What they arent told is that the last test that they do is practically impossible to survive. IT shows in-car video and closeups in slow motion of a 29 year old german convict who slams an old vw into a cinder-block wall at 110 mph and flips it 14 times into a snow filled ditch and they have another video of a guy doing a rollover test in a bmw 325 acrossed a huge cement parking lot at 85 mph. My favorite one is of the guy who spins the car out and hits a pole going backwards and is ejected from the car out the side window. ITS HILARIOUS!!!!! Its the same one that they show in massachusetts drivers ed courses but i think they may have cancelled it because of its graphic content.

Savage Selection
The Houston Texans have their quarterback. They took Tom Savage from the University of Pittsburgh. The 6'5", 229-pounder also played at Rutgers and the University of Arizona.
Analysts say he has good size for an NFL quarterback, and has excellent arm strength. He is also seen as intelligent with a good work ethic. But the experts also caution that he occasionally suffers from "tunnel vision" – staring down his intended receivers - making him an easy target for defensive backs.
He's a potential "diamond in the rough", who did not have the media exposure of other quarterbacks who went before him, including Johnny Manziel, Blake Bortles, or Teddy Bridgewater.
Elsewhere in the NFL draft:
The Texans acquired UCLA guard Xavier Su'a-Filo with the first pick in the second round. The 6'4", 307-pound rookie will help shore up a weakness on the offensive line.
In the third round, the Texans selected Iowa tight end CJ Fiedorowicz, who will ease the loss of Owen Daniels to free agency.
They also traded the number one picks in the fourth and fifth rounds to Philadelphia, moving up to get Notre Dame defensive lineman Louis Nix (6'2", 331lbs).
The Texans still own three picks in the sixth round, and one in the seventh and final round.

Saabs have become famous for their ability to reach very high mileages and still be running strong. The NG900 is no exception to this but one of the key factors is regular servicing.
The costs incurred by having this done at a Saab dealership can be quite shocking. However, if you are prepared and able to do the work yourself, or you know of a good independent that can carry out the work for you, then you can save quite a bit of money without compromising the life span of your Saab.
The following pages list the work that is required in the service specifications from Saab for each service interval. I strongly suggest that you use either genuine Saab parts, or quality OEM or after market parts, rather than the cheapest that you can find. This especially applies to plugs (use NGK of the correct grade) and lubricants (very important for turbo charged cars)
There are different servicing schedules depending on where you live in the world and these are broken down into three main areas.

|European Commission > ... > Energy > Home page for nuclear fission energy and radiation protection research
|Contact | Search
EU research in nuclear fission and radiation protection is carried out under the provisions of the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community (referred to as the Euratom Treaty), one of the original Treaties of Rome signed in 1957. Under this treaty the European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) was also founded to undertake research into aspects such as nuclear safety and security.
Alongside the research carried out in the JRC's institutes, the European Commission is funding Euratom research projects and actions through calls for proposals within multi-annual framework programmes.
The current Euratom framework programme is the seventh of its kind. It covers the five-year period 2007–11 and is implemented by two specific programmes: one for direct research actions carried out by the JRC, the other one for indirect research actions – i.e. EU-funded research managed by the Commission's Directorate-General for Research (DG Research).
This website deals only with the specific Euratom research programme managed by DG Research.
Nuclear fission energy
The nuclear power industry makes a significant contribution to meeting Europe's demand for energy, supplying one third of all the electricity consumed in the EU.
Thanks to its very low production of CO2, nuclear energy reduces the EU's total greenhouse-gas emissions by some 14% a year – more than 700 million tonnes of CO2, equivalent to that produced by all the private cars in Europe. Thus, nuclear power contributes significantly to helping the EU meet its commitments made in the Kyoto Protocol and in the European Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET Plan).
In addition to this, nuclear energy
Europe is a world leader in nuclear technology and services, with an important research sector, which brings along commercial advantages resulting from the export of technological expertise in a global and competitive environment. However, we are facing increasing competition from our overseas competitors, in particular those in Asia.
In the Euratom framework programme, current research aims to establish a sound scientific and technical basis to accelerate practical developments towards the safe long-term management of hazardous radioactive waste, and to enhance key aspects influencing future exploitation of nuclear energy such as resource efficiency, cost-effectiveness and safety and performance characteristics.
Radiation protection
Radiation protection research aims at optimising the protection of man and the environment from exposure to all sources of ionising radiation, in particular low and protracted doses resulting from:
Cellular and molecular biological research on the interaction between radiation and DNA, cells, organs, and the body helps us to understand and mitigate the adverse effects of radiation.

10 Ways to Reduce Inflammation (Page 4)
Up Your Soy
The Food and Drug Administration has indicated that eating 25 grams of soy protein daily helps to reduce your risk of inflammation-driven cardiovascular disease. But according to two 2009 studies, even as little as half that may be helpful. "We saw a reduction in inflammation after drinking just two [12-ounce] glasses of soymilk a day for three months," says study co-author Elvira de Mejia, Ph.D., associate professor of nutrition at the University of Illinois at Urbana. (Each glass contained 6 grams of soy protein.) Apparently, lunasin, a peptide found in soymilk and tofu, in combination with other soy proteins, can quell inflammation. (If you have a hormone-sensitive condition, such as breast cancer or endometriosis, check with your doctor before increasing the amount of soy in your diet.)

A retreat is time for God, a time for assessing our relationship with God. We spend time with the people we cherish and respect. We spend time with God. A retreat nurtures our spiritual life in an environment away from the ordinary distractions of life. In the Scriptures, we read that Jesus would simply go off and pray. Keep Reading…
Retreat Season 2016-2017:
Reflecting Christ
"I live, no longer I, but Christ lives in me". That is how the Apostle, Paul, reflects Jesus in his life and ministry. And he tells us to do the same: "Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ." What a wonderful vocation!
Jesus Christ calls each one of us to himself. Our response is to be reflections of him and to continue the work he showed us while he was here on earth.
Again, Saint Paul gives us a window into what our lives will look like if we strive to be Christ in the world: "For the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control." (Gal. 5:22-23a)
We find opportunities to be about this work of discipleship in every place, in every person, in every moment of our lives. It is in the events near to us and across the globe.
In his Easter Vigil homily (March 2016) Pope Francis encourages us to be about this baptismal call: "The Lord is alive and wants to be sought among the living. After having found him, each person is sent out by him to announce the Easter message, to awaken and resurrect hope in hearts burdened by sadness, in those who struggle to find meaning in life."
To reflect Christ is to trust in him for the grace and wisdom to be his human face in today's world. We are not called to be perfect. We are called to be our truest self – announcing God's good news with the gifts given to us and in this time we are blessed to live.
Consider who you will invite to join you on retreat.
We look forward to welcoming you with open arms here at the Spiritual Center.
This is the time to deepen your faith, so that your faith is strengthened for the journey.

R. Kelly's autobiography Soula Coaster: The Diary of Me has been pushed to a spring 2012 release, a representative for publishing house SmileyBooks told the Village Voice this week.
Originally set to drop on November 15, according to online book seller Indigo, the book is Kelly's chance to address the highs (he's had thirteen Top 10 albums) and lows (child pornography charges, throat surgery) of his life and career.
"I'm tired of being misunderstood," the musician wrote in the autobiography's 2009 press release. "I will show you the tears, fears, and sweat. I will open my heart and reveal the good in my life as well as all the drama. I want to tell it like it is."
Soula Coaster: The Diary of Me was co-written by David Ritz, who has also written books with Grandmaster Flash, Ray Charles and Tavis Smiley, among others. The book's publisher, Smileybooks, is the PBS talk show host's imprint.

This is quite the question, isn't it? It makes us wonder... Does it depend on the subject's personality? Or is it something we can define?
Gameplay is what the game makes you do. The way in which you interact with the game, the restraints applied by the game. And of course, there are many ways for you to interact with the game. For you to progress, and get the thing going. Whether it is jumping, shooting, driving, killing or just clicking and solving puzzles, you would think that a game that has all this, and is able to implement it correctly, is nowhere near being repetitive, right? I think so. But what if it only has one of these?
In fact, Sid Meier once said that "A game is a series of interesting choices." Of course, it doesn't apply to all games, but it has a huge influence on what's repetitive or not. A game that offers you multiple paths. Interesting paths. You make decisions all the time, but they aren't always clear, unlike Mass Effect, a game where you constantly chose to do this, and say that, impacting your reputation and other's behaviour towards you. Choices can be presented as in Super Mario Bros. You choose to jump or not. If you jump with the wrong timing, you may die. And death is a consequence of your choice. But from this point of view, everything you do in a game is a choice, whether it is deciding to drive your car left to escape the cops, or spending more ammo than you should. So, since we can qualify everything you do as making decisions, the choice aspect is left out, because there are repetitive games, and games with a dynamic gameplay, and they all have choices, so that's not what makes the game repetitive or not.
In order to explain the gameplay aspect, we may have to go and look at the plot. Which, after thinking for a moment, I realized that it is important, but not mandatory in the repetitive aspect of the game.
Imagine the game with the best plot in the world. A magnificent story, better than any book or movie. Perfection. And imagine if the only way for you to progress in the game was to press the Spacebar. An enemy comes along: "Press Spacebar to shoot". A wal is up ahead: "Press Spacebar to jump". And so on. Would you want to play this kind of game?
And now we go to the graphical aspect. I wonder if a gorgeous art style can prevent a game from being repetitive... I must take a quick brake, only to emphasize that I'm only diverging from the gameplay aspect because I said earlier that all we did was making choices all the time, synonym of gameplay, and that the answer lies not in the gameplay itself, but somewhere else.
Art again alone doesn't make a game interesting. It may be one of the reasons why you're playing the game and a huge plus, but it's not the main one. And it certainly doesn't affect gameplay.
The length of a game is a defining factor on whether you'll get bored or not. You can have a game that's 4 hours long, and another that's 40 hours long. I don't think you'll be able to go through all 40 hours if you keep doing the same, if you keep seeing the same things, the same environment, without much change in the plot, will you? Whereas in a 4 hour game, the repetitive gameplay gets away, because it doesn't have time to become repetitive. The length of a game has a very important relationship with the gameplay and all remaining aspects. All you have to do is introduce a few changes every once in a while, just to keep things fresh, and voilá! No more repetitiveness.
I think we can agree on this one. When the you enjoy playing a game, and have fun all the way through, you don't even consider whether the game you're playing is repetitive or not. If it is repetitive, who cares? You're having fun. If it isn't, even better, you're still having fun, and making good use of your time.
I noticed a very important pattern while writing this blog... Of all the aspects I mentioned, few can be used to tell if a game is being repetitive or not. That's because they all work together to bring you the experience you know and love. Or hate. You could say that the fun aspect is fine on its own, but if you give it a bit thought, what is fun? When does the fun start, and the boredom end? It's the gathering of all aspects above mentioned that make a game worth playing, and like everything, it depends on you. Depends on your personal preferences and tastes. You don't like the same games I do. A game I might find fun, you might think otherwise. You can't disect the various aspects of what makes a game a game. Well, you can. But you're not analysing a game anymore.
What started out as a comment section conversation, ended up in a blog. I though this was a good topic to write about, and I ended up talking about more than just the simple aspect of gameplay itself, but other aspects of a game in general.
What do you think that makes a game repetitive? Write it in the comments!
As always, thank you for reading

Jennifer Roback Morse argues persuasively for the need of marriage in a free society in her post titled "Marriage and the Limits of Contract." Here is a brief excerpt:
The advocates of the deconstruction of marriage into a series of temporary couplings with unspecified numbers and genders of people have used the language of choice and individual rights to advance their cause. This rhetoric has a powerful hold over the American mind. It is doubtful that the deconstruction of the family could have proceeded as far as it has without the use of this language of personal freedom.
But this rhetoric is deceptive. It is simply not possible to have a minimum government in a society with no social or legal norms about family structure, sexual behavior, and childrearing. The state will have to provide support for people with loose or nonexistent ties to their families. The state will have to sanction truly destructive behavior, as always. But destructive behavior will be more common because the culture of impartiality destroys the informal system of enforcing social norms. It is high time libertarians object when their rhetoric is hijacked by the advocates of big government. Fairness and freedom do not demand sexual and parental license. Minimum-government libertarianism needs a robust set of social institutions. If marriage isn't a necessary social institution, then nothing is. And if there are no necessary social institutions, then the individual truly will be left to face the state alone. A free society needs marriage.

Ok I'm a short and athletic chick. I work out but I eat whatever I want I'm not going to pretend I'm some health nut but I do enough to be in a healthy range in medical standards. I live in Florida and everybody wears shorts but I don't because I hate the back of my legs and rear.
So I finally decided to do the procedure on Feburary 4th. The numbing hurt like a bad dog but it was expected but once it was numb I didnt feel a thing I fell asleep and drooled a bit to be honest. It lasted 2.5 hours, three sheets worth, one and a half on each leg but I'm short so it covered a lot of area.
Didn't have much drainage or at least I don't think I did because I the padding absorbed it all; plus the girls at all office rolled a lot of the fluids out my legs before bandaging me up. Went home napped and hung around the house I was able to walk fine. I'm just sore and sleepy. The soreness is really from all the bruising but it's barely but I'm not dropping it like its hot either.
Now I play the waiting game.....

I am not sure what to say other than 'IT WAS JUST PERFECT!!!'
I went through a couple of websites as well as designs before I could zero in on this dress...nd I am glad i did!!
Special mention and thanks to all the staff who were really attentive and made sure they replied to all of my 10000 queries promptly, keeping in mind the time zone considerations.
I must also say that they were very helpful regarding the measurements...as I have no clue when it comes to sewing or tailoring! My mum nd sis helped me...we made sure the measurements were snug...u don't actually need it to be looser especially if the back is a lace tie up
I ordered my dress on the 12th of May, the dress was shipped by the 24th nd I received it on the 28th. Voilaaa :D :D :D
The dress was heavenly....the design and work was exactly as seen in the picture
I attached sleeves for the dress locally as they do not do that on JJS
Also, the length had to be increased by an inch or so as i had not finalized my shoes when i had submitted the measurements, which I increased on my own using lace trim bought from a local store.
I didn't use a petticoat as I didn't feel the need for one, enough layers were sewed in to help hold the dress up
Many many thanks and much love jjshouse for helping me realize my wedding dress dreams.
Had i the opportunity i would have uploaded more than 2 images.

This wedding gown is gorgeous... When it was in the bag I had second thoughts, but after trying it on, the details in it was exquisite. From the minor details you can see that the seamstress spent a lot of time on the details. I also asked which petticoat is best for this dress and the representatives are extremely helpful. JJ House provides exceptional customer service and their prices are really reasonable. Where else can you find great quality wedding gowns at such competitive rates.
Thank you to everyone at JJ House

We ordered a wedding dress on the 9th it was being made on the 10th and we received the beautiful dress on the
23rd may. Excellant service would recommend this company to anyone.

Timing essential in Indiana gay marriage battle
Indiana lawmakers are gauging their timing carefully as they weigh when to introduce a measure that would add a ban on same-sex marriage to the state constitution.
Lawmakers passed the measure in 2011 but must pass it again in 2013 or 2014 so it can go to voters.
Republican House Speaker Brian Bosma said before the election that the measure could move swiftly through his chamber, but he didn't include it in a package of ideas House Republicans will push in 2013.
Republican Rep. Eric Turner of Cicero led the fight for the measure's passage last year but hasn't indicated whether he'll push for it come January.
The timing could be influenced by other priorities, including the new two-year budget lawmakers need to write.

9th Duino Elegy
9th Duino Elegy
Why, if it's possible to come into existence
I want to write of the light
but I do not know
whether words can illuminate
the way it hangs
upon branches and bird wings
and broken things
returning beings to beauty.
Can words spin substance
from sunshine and decay?
Can words cajole
celebration from night-weary
Can words warm surfaces
of stones and sorrows?
Can words reveal richness
in mundane
and battered
I do not know.
But if we would write
a tomorrow
which is wider than wounds
we have worn,
we might wield words
like benedictions
and remember
within brokenness,
within endings,
and beauty
within all things.

With their whole gaze the creatures behold what is. Only our eyes
Belonging is a river
not a goal.
Every point is holy--
but you cannot linger there
without losing yourself
for you are the motion
of your journey.
No idea,
no attainment,
no goal,
can encompass
the truth
which lives only as it dies
into new life.
Your are the pain--
let it go.
Your are the joy--
let it go.
You are actions taken and not taken--
let them go.
Your are the dream--
let it go.
Move with the mark
of the unknown upon you
and life will enter your blood like a river.
This world was always holy
and you were always a rising flame
upon its altar.

Ivory Coast illegally arrested, tortured more than 200 - Amnesty
* Most arrests followed recent wave of attacks
* Government, U.N. blame attacks on ex-president's loyalists
By Joe Bavier
ABIDJAN, Oct 26 (Reuters) - Police and soldiers in Ivory Coast have illegally detained and tortured more than 200 people including supporters of former President Laurent Gbagbo, following a series of armed attacks that began in August, Amnesty International said on Friday.
U.N. investigators said earlier this month that exiled members of Gbagbo's former government and military living in neighbouring Ghana were behind the raids, which have targeted police and army installations as well as key infrastructure.
Gbagbo is awaiting trial in The Hague accused of crimes against humanity related to a brief war last year that erupted after he refused to accept the election victory of rival Alassane Ouattara in a late 2010 poll.
More than 3,000 people were killed in the conflict.
"While acknowledging that the ... government is facing a wave of attacks, we are very worried that the current arrests and repression stem from a willingness for reprisals and revenge," Amnesty West Africa researcher Gaetan Mootoo said.
Ivory Coast's government rejected the accusations made in a statement released by Amnesty on Friday. Continued...
