I wrote a few words about Tony Sly my first of many encounters with one of my heroes. I had not seen Tony in years, but we had been in contact a year or so back, trying to get him to come play some shows in Colorado.
I reached out to him on facebook a while back, but sadly got no reply. I got to his personal facebook page and it says to me: "Friend Request Sent."
I am saddened that Tony will never be on my show, but I'm honored to have met him, once upon a time.
"Making Friends" was the soundtrack to summer the very same year I graduated high school and decided not to go to college. I was 17 years old. I had found NO USE FOR A NAME, the same way many of us had thanks to the Survival of the Fattest compilation from Fat Wreck Chords.
I was immediately attracted to the anger and humanity reflected through NUFAN's songs. Listening to it now, it's hits me in the same way. It makes me move. It makes it okay to have felt the way I did as a confused little teenager trying to find his place in the world.
In those late teenage years in Shreveport, I found myself helping to write and run a small punk rock/hacker zine called, KGB PROPAGANDA. Thanks to the early days of the internet, I found it was really easy to email your favorite record label and ask for interviews with your favorite musicians! Fat Wreck chords were by far the easiest and most willing to let little old me ask musicians dumb questions. They set us up with TILT, GOOD RIDDANCE, THE ATARIS all in a relatively short time. My heart about stopped when they approved my interview with Tony Sly and NO USE FOR A NAME.
I interviewed Tony Sly not long after the release of "More Betterness" in October of 1999. No Use was playing the main support for the Dance Hall Crashers / Limp tour. I climbed in the car with a stranger I had met through the local punk rock chat board I ran. We quietly made the three hour trek to Dallas, Texas.
I was nervous. I had only at this point interviewed three or four bands at this point. I didn't have a clue what to expect. I made it all the way to the door of the venue to find out that I was not on the guest list as promised. I walked away defeated, but only to encounter a familiar looking guy wearing a tour laminate. I walked up to the young man and shyly asked if he knew where any of the No Use For a Name guys where. To my embarrassment, I was talking to Tony Sly.
He was nice and it didn't seem to bother him that the kid who was there to interview him, had no clue what the hell he looked like. (It was the early days of the internet.. and photos were not as readily available and I was, just barely 18.) We chit chatted for a short little time, and we decided we would do the interview after the show. Their tour manager at the time got my information and went and put my name on the guest list. I got back in the line and waited again, for what must have felt like hours….
I got myself on the guest list thanks to the Tour Manager who had to rip the box office young lady a new one. I made it in and the show was great. I followed Tony outside after their set where I climbed into their RV. We drove a few blocks around the Deep Ellum area of Dallas, so the band could load out their gear. I WAS IN THEIR VAN TRAVELING AROUND DALLAS! The little girl in me SQUEED!
I remember Tony offering me a beer, but I was 18 years old and straight edge at the time (who'da thunk, right?) He offered me his half drunk Sprite, but I declined.
I remember being totally at ease during the interview. I remember feeling very welcomed by Tony, and then later Rory and their then brand new guitarist Dave. There I was on one of my favorite band's RVs! WOW! It was one of the greatest moments in my young 18 year old life.
During that interview, I learned a lot more about doing interviews. I learned follow up questions. I learned to listen and be yourself. Tony made me feel at ease. Also, he taught me to respect women, and not be too excited when they take off their shirts at concerts.
It was made even better after the tape recorder stopped and Tony and the guys proceeded to load me up with goodies. I got a few free t-shirts, I got a TON of free stickers, posters and other goodies. I've managed to hold onto them through out the years, but my prize gift from that night was a ACT II Halloween Popcorn ball. Tony wanted to give it to me as a snack for the long, three hour ride back home.
Needless to say, that popcorn ball still sits unwrapped on a shelf in my apartment. Many guest ask me with bewilderment why I have a 13 year old Popcorn ball sitting on my shelf, and I always retell this story with great joy.
Still after all these years and all these interviews later, I find myself reminiscing about that faithful night in Dallas. I still have the tour poster and autographed CD booklet. I still often wear my NUFAN hoodie that was purchased that night.
I look back and I wonder, If those guys had not been the nicest guys in the world, and so welcoming to a young, dumb kid such as myself… Would I have stuck with it? Would I have kept interviewing bands, and later booking shows, tour managing or once again interviewing bands again? I don't know.
I do know that moment with Tony Sly helped set me down a path that I'm on today. I was elated to jump off that RV with all those goodies. The real reason I even started interviewing bands, was so I could meet my heroes. I could join them and maybe one day be one of them. And here I was in Dallas, Texas; treated like an equal, friend, part of the family.
Here is that interview we did that faithful night in October. I remember thinking, "This is all I ever want to do." Thanks to you Tony, I've tried to make that happen.
Thank you Tony for being so amazing and inspiring.
In the short time I've been doing interviews and working for KGB, I've done quite a few interviews and met quite a few bands. The night I met No Use For a Name will be one of the memories that I carry with me forever. The guys in NUFAN are the most down to earth, coolest guys that I met. They took me into their Van and let me hang out and interview the guys. Even after the interview was said and done, the guys didn't kick me out of the van, It was quite the opposite, they wouldn't let me leave! I would really like to thank Tony Sly making my day, and I'd also Like to think Russ A.K.A. Sgt. Mohawk for taking me to the show. With out you Russ, this excellent interview may have never taken place. If you guys have not done so already go check out MORE BETTERNESS out now on Fat Wreck Chords.
-Mostly Harmless
Damian: Now your new album, More Betterness, came out last week, How has the fan response been?
Tony: Really good. We actually put up a message board thing on out new website, Nouseforaname.com, and Its been good. And Like the first day, we got over like one hundred messages saying how much they liked the album and everything.
Damian: Now I heard it was originally going to be called "Endless Bummer." What happened to that?
Tony: Actually it went stale because it was a parody name of the Beach Boy's Endless Summer, you know, the soundtrack to the movie? It just got a little stale because it was a parody and we all decided it sounded more like a Weird Al Yankovich album instead of a No Use For A Name album, so we changed it.
Damian: What, do you not like Weird Al?
Tony: No, I love weird Al. Its just we're not Weird Al.
Damian: Well to me the new album seems a little bit slower, a lot more emotional than the previous albums. Any reason for the change?
Tony: I think it is just the way, cause I wrote all the songs, ya know? Its just the way I was feeling at the time, so. I mean, I wasn't feeling slow, but I was feeling pretty emotional about some things. So the lyrical content, It that's what you mean, tends to lead towards the emotional side of things.
Damian: How did Cinder Block become involved on the "Fairytale of New York" track?
Tony: Well she has a great voice and I thought she was perfect for the song. So we had her come and do it. It was that simple. She is a good friend. She has a great voice.
Damian: They were just here a few days ago and I asked her how she felt being on the last two albums, for some odd reason I thought what's-her-name from Dance Hall Crashers was her… Anyways. Where is that song originally from?
Tony: Oh the Pogues. How did she feel about singing on the new album?
Damian: She liked it. She said it was really cool and she enjoyed it and she liked the way it turned out. The other guys in the band said some real good things about you guys.
Tony: We're going to Europe with them in a few weeks.
Damian: Yea, how come your not on tour with them now? They are just a little bit ahead of you…
Tony: I don't know. I guess we were doing this tour first.
Damian: There's a sound bite on the new record that people have been asking about. It says, Go! or something like that.
Tony: Oh yea. That's this famous soccer announcer. His name is Garious Gaytour [Spelling of this is more than likely wrong.] He's from Mexico. That game was from the '94 World Cup and that was him announcing a goal at the beginning. A couple of us are big soccer fans. So we decided that would be kind of cool. I play soccer on a soccer team at home.
Damian: Really? What's it called?
Tony: Its called Sunnyvale FCC. [Also this is more than likely wrong spelling or interpretation.]
Damian: Are you any good?
Tony: Um, No. I'm a bench warmer.
Damian: What's your position when you do play?
Tony: Forward.
Damian: Forward?
Tony: Yea. Strike.
Damian: Somebody told me it was Ian McKaye on the sound bite.
Tony: Oh, but there is an Ian McKaye sound bite on there. Yea, Right before the song "Lives Can't Pretend." There's a guy going, "GO! Yes Go!"
Damian: Oh. Yea. That's what I was talking about. I got mixed up.
Tony: The beginning of the album is the Mexican soccer announcer, but the thing before "Lives Can't Pretend" is Ian mcKaye. Its taken from their album right before a song on their album.
Damian: Now I'm not going to ask to many Foo Fighters questions. I'm sure ya'll are tired of it.
Tony: Actually. Surprisingly, not that many people have asked.
Damian: Really? I expected a shit load of people.
Tony: Me too! The first week it happened we got a lot of phone interviews about it, but after that, seriously I think that people think the same things and maybe they just go, you know, "what are they going to say? What can you say about it?" It sucks, but it doesn't suck, ya know? – I'll answer the question for you, even thought you didn't ask it yet.
Damian: Oh that's cool. You can keep going.
Tony: Okay. Its unfortunate that Chris left the band because Chris was a good friend but Dave out new guitar player, is, I think he is phenomenal. We really like his style of playing and he fits in the band super good and he's such a cool guy to be with.
Damian: Well that answers one of my questions. Is the new guitar player staying?
Tony: Yea It seems that way. It looks that way, I mean he is like, he loves the band. He's totally stoked on No Use For a Name. he listens to our CDs all the time. Well mainly because he's learning all our stuff, but he wants to know every song that we have. He's great, and super into it. Its nice to have a breath of fresh air in the band.
Damian: Alright, um, back to the Foo Fighters thing. Your name has been on everywhere from MTV to radio. Has this been helping ya'll? Is it bringing more people to your shows?
Tony: Well I don't know. We haven't been headlining these shows, but we have been doing really, really, good on these shows. We've been selling more T-shirts and CDs than ever on this tour. I don't know if that's it or if its the hype of the new record or if its just whatever. I don't know if people like the color of our t-shirts or something. I don't know what it is. We're certainly doing better. Things are on the up and up right now. I don't know if its due because of that, but any press is good press.
Damian: Well I know a lot of people in the club came just to see NUFAN and left as soon as you guys left the stage. Do you like that? or is that bad?
Tony: That's been happening every night of this tour. Its cool, It sucks. The Dance Hall Crashers are good friends of mine, but you have to understand that its 2 totally different crowds. Kids who come to see us, I don't think want to dance around to Ska songs. Well some do. But a lot of them don't and lot of the kids who come to see them don't want to sit through some punk band either. There were a lot of people in the back that were just waiting to see the Dance Hall Crashers, too at the same time. Its a good mixture of two different types of crowds and I think it benefits both bands pretty well.
Damian: So how long have ya'll been out on this tour?
Tony: Almost five weeks.
Damian: Five weeks and then three more days left for this part?
Tony: Yea.
Damian: Where to after that?
Tony: Europe for five weeks.
Damian: Is that the Fat Wreck Chords tour?
Tony: Yes. Yes.
Damian: Is that coming back here to the states?
Tony: Yea, It is. be a different line up. Its going to be us and Good Riddance, I think. I keep telling people that Good Riddance is going to do it, but they are not confirmed yet. So we'll see. Nobody has booked anything, yet. They are not confirmed yet. But its like 80% there. Its going to happen.
Damian: So for the people who have never seen you guys before, what can they expect from a NUFAN show?
Tony: Depends. It depends on the night. It depends because our bass player tore his alkalies heal [Not sure quite what he said so this too may be wrong.] and he's on morphine and tequila, then your going to have a different kind of show. It depends on the crowd. It depends on the scene, you know? That kind of stuff. I don't know what people expect every time we're out there. We always give it 100%. No matter what because we know people pay to come and see something. If you want to hear a band you can go and hear their records, but if you want to see some action, You want to see them jump around and stuff like that. And plus we love jumping around because its fun. You get a little exercise in there, though you'd never be able to tell.
Damian: How did you feel about tonight's show?
Tony: Tonight's show? Tonight's show was kind of a medium. It was pretty good for the most part. What I hate is when there's a really high stage and blinding lights like that. You can't see anybody. 50% of a way I judge a show is by the crowd response and the other 50% on how we play. I think we were at, on a scale of one to ten; we were a six tonight. And on a scale from one to ten the crowd was a seven.
Damian: So you guys have been on tour for five weeks now. How do you get up everyday and play a show for a bunch of kids you have never seen and might not see ever again?
Tony: Every night is a different city. Its always exciting to play anywhere. You have memories like the time we played here at The Galaxy with NoFx. It was a great show and I knew that the kids tonight would be the same kids going off. I looked forward to it. When I woke up this morning I was like, cool. We're playing Dallas tonight. You know? Then tomorrow we're going to wake up and go, "Cool we're playing Phoenix." Cause I like Phoenix, there are things I like about Phoenix. There's only a few places in the world were you wake up in the morning and go, fuck. We're playing Mobile, Alabama or something [Laughter] . Or what?
?: Or Lubbock.
Tony: Lubbock? Where's that?
?: Texas. [Laughter]
Damian: So, what keeps you sane on the road? What keeps you going?
Tony: Clean laundry. Decent food. Decent sleep. Just playing live, too. Its a reward that every 45 minutes, every day. Its our reward for waiting around all day in a stinky old van.
Damian: Do you guys get any flak for being on Fat Wreck Chords? Fat is one of those labels that some people really don't like.
Tony: You mean bands don't want to be on it?
Damian: Fans, just people who don't like it…
Tony: Are those the bands that can't be on it, but If they had the chance they would be?
Damian: Probably. Well I'm on the Internet a lot and people are always talking shit about Fat. "They suck. Blah blah Blah. There all just a bunch of New School, pop-punk busses…"
Tony: Well, see your going to have those people, cause those are usually your aggressive, angrier punkers that can't handle that kind of stuff. I defiantly have to protect the label on that one because they have done so many thins for the band. That I owe them so much. Mike, Erin, everyone that works there at Fat. They have done such a great job promoting this new record and I hate to hear that kind of stuff, but there is always going to be that kind of people out there that don't like what someone else is doing. So it doesn't really matter because at the same time the few, that little group of people, then there is this other, huge group of people that are totally into it.
Damian: Any craziness happen on this tour?
Tony: As far as…?
Damian: Like girls taking off their clothes, getting harassed by the cops…
Tony: You know what? That happens sometimes. Like girls will flash their tits while we're playing and stuff. I hate it. I think that it is sooo degrading. Then you see a bunch of guys reaching up to grab her and pulling off her dress and stuff. Its really, its borderline rape. So its not really that cool. Things like that. As far as crazy things go, nothing really crazy has happened on this tour yet. We have only like three or four days for something crazy to happen. This tour has been what we would call, PG-13. Right Dave? This is Dave.
Damian: So how are you enjoying the band so far?
Dave: I enjoy it to the fullest extent. I'm really really digging it. Having a great time.
Damian: Of course your not going to say anything with him right here.
Dave: No, I'd say it sucked if I thought it did.
Damian: Okay, I'm almost done. Got a couple of lame questions here…. Y2K is coming are you guys prepared?
Tony: Prepared for what?
Damian: Prepared for whatever happens. Basically is No Use For A Name Y2K compliant?
Tony: Um, No. It depends on what you're talking about. How all this bad shit is gonna happen. Its a bit much considering that its only a number. I think things are going to be fucked up for a couple of days at the most. Maybe some computers will shut down, some companies might have problems because of the double zero thing. Other than that, I don't think its going to do too much damage. People will be really surprised how a week after it will be back to normal. I don't think the planet will blow up or anything like that.
Damian: So if you were not here right now, Not in No Use For A Name, were do you think you would be?
At home with my wife, my cats.
Damian: No Kids?
Tony: No I don't have any kids. You know, I would probably have kids. If I wasn't In No Use For a Name now, because I'm 28, I know that's really young. I'm as homebody as it gets for a guy that goes on tour. I don't really have a hard time with it, but I love playing Every night. So It kind of keeps me going, but I'd probably be at home with my wife.
Damian: So last question here. How much longer do you think No Use will live on? Or do you not want to think about that?
Tony: Okay. I'll wait until we get to this point. That's all I know cause I think about it sometimes. I'm gonna wait until I feel like I'm being looked at like an idiot up there. Like to the point where its like, "God man. Those guys are still around?" the first time that someone says that, I'm out of here….

I listed the bag yesterday and this morning the same bag in a different color is for sale for 1/2 of what I paid. How is that possible?? The seller has a lot of feedback and the auction says new and authentic. I can't imagine the seller is just taking a loss. How do they get them so cheap???

Paetec Investor Sues To Block $2.3B Windstream Deal
Shareholder David Mattucci says the deal wrongly abandons what had been a successful independent growth strategy for Paetec that relied on buying up smaller companies.
"Neither Paetec's management, nor its board, has fully explained why the company, or its current management, needs to abandon their deliberately conceived acquisition strategy for a meager short-term profit," Mattucci said in...

Hello all and welcome to your weekly dose of convivial comic conversation! This week I'm reviewing Green Arrow #3, the final issue of this New 52 series written by J.T. Krul. At NYCC, which now seems like it happened a lifetime ago, I heard Krul speak on a panel where he announced that this is the final issue of Green Arrow he would be writing for the foreseeable future. I managed to meet him after the panel and offered my condolences since I enjoy his writing but he assured me, "The series is in good hands." But how did this final chapter in Krul's Green Arrow pan out? Did he manage to leave on a high note or instead let things fall stagnant?
Green Arrow #3 begins with Oliver Queen right in the middle of combat with the villain Rush and his gang. The fight is streaming on the internet, while spectators post on message boards about their desire to see Queen laid low. It's not long before Ollie's arrows start flying as he attempts to use every trick in his arsenal to survive. Surrounded by a dozen superpowered scoundrels, can Green Arrow hope to win or will this truly be his last hurrah?
To be perfectly honest, I felt this comic fell flat. The build up in issues #1 and #2 was great, but this story seemed rushed and the ending somewhat cliche. Though there are hints at the story moving in a better direction, it still does not excuse just how bland the story was. The dialogue was also off, without the normal wit I find in Krul's writing. I was also displeased since the end of the last issue promised we'd see Black Canary…but the only indication of her anywhere was a sonic arrow that Queen fired at Rush's gang to temporarily distort their sense of hearing. It also seemed a bit ridiculous to me that during the fight they showed a sidebar of people posting messages about how they wanted to see Rush and his lackeys kill Green Arrow; it felt very awkward and out of place, detracting from the emotion that could've accompanied the scene. All in all, the story was a let down.
The artwork, too, started to drag a bit, perhaps only supported in the past by better writing. It was not bad, but it was not amazing either. The character designs remain creative, but some of the fight scenes seemed too hectic as if Jurgens wanted to cram as much as he could onto a page. Some say less is more, and in this case a smaller, more focused fight would've looked a lot better in my opinion. I must say, however, that the two new villains introduced on the final page look fairly cool, so I'm going to wait and see how the artwork evolves as the story progresses (I hope).
Overall, Green Arrow #3 did not meet my expectations. After a stellar first two issues for the New 52 it's sad to see the series stagnate a bit as this may alienate newer readers who had just latched onto Green Arrow. It's a shame to see a story level off a bit, though I suppose I can't expect every issue to be top notch. In the end, I'd say this issue is only worth the read if the series picks up in the next chapter onward.
Brett Simon is a twenty-two year old comic enthusiast. He's hoping the future writers of Green Arrow aim for higher standards in every issue.

She has a certain innocent but sultry look. She looks demure but alluring at the same time. She is the new girl to watch out for in Hollywood.
Dakota Johnson confirmed her A-list status not just via a blockbuster movie, the very controversial 50 Shades of Grey but she just landed her very first US Vogue cover last February. She can be dubbed as a breakout star but by virtue of birth, she is indeed destined for stardom having Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson as parents.
From the premiere of the smash hit 50 Shades of Grey to the Oscar's, get the look of Dakota Johnson red carpet moments.
50 Shades of Grey Premiere
Impeccably stunning in a plunging white long gown, channel your inner goddess beauty with a more conservative neckline or add more drama with flowing drapes on the side.

Dazzling in silver, Dakota Johnson was a head-turner that night in the red carpet. Though the sexy long gown looks good on her, I think I prefer a shorter version of this shining shimmering piece.

The White House is considering a plan to relocate thousands of illegal immigrant children to the home state of U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions, causing some to question whether presidential politics is at play.
Sessions has for years has led the opposition to immigration policies supported by President Barack Obama. The plan would send the children to Baldwin County, across the bay from Sessions' home in Mobile County.
Sessions has also emerged among Donald Trump's fiercest supporters and was the first senator to endorse the GOP presidential nominee. Trump's hardline immigration approach – which includes deportation of all undocumented immigrants and a wall built along the U.S.-Mexican border -- has been embraced by Sessions.
"It's highly probable that this is more political than practical," said Baldwin County Commissioner Chris Elliott.

Home Depot CFO Says Working Capital Boosts To Ebb
Working capital improvements helped Home Depot more than triple its cash position over the past year, to roughly $2 billion. But CFO Carol Tome called its forecast for $6.6 billion in operating cash flow for 2012 conservative, because it doesn't expect as much working capital benefit this year.
"It's better to be prudent on the cash flow forecast than to get over our skis," Tome said on a conference call with analysts, according to a transcript provided by Factset.
Tome said Home Depot during the fiscal year lowered overall inventory by $300 million to $10.3 billion, improved inventory turns to 4.3 times from 4.1 times, and its payables-to-inventory ratio to 47% from 44%. Of these working capital improvements, the lower inventory was the hardest to achieve, Tome told CFO Journal.
"Inventory has been the journey," she said, referring to its multi-year effort to improve its supply chain and network of distribution hubs to reduce inventory levels.
For 2012, Tome said during the conference call that Home Depot expects to add two days to its payable days outstanding.
The Atlanta-based company was able to eke out a higher gross margin of 35% in the three months ended in late January, 29 basis points better than the year-earlier period. It didn't get the full, 53-basis-point benefit of supply-chain improvements because of lower-margin holiday items it brought into stores to boost its gift-giving business.
For the second quarter in a row, Tome said shoplifting and employee theft – or shrink, in industry terms – in the U.S. pressured its gross margin. However, lower shrink in Canada effectively offset that pressure, Tome said.
Tome told CFOJ that the company believes the shrink is predominantly the result of shoplifting or customer fraud, rather than employee theft. Home Depot has installed new technology at its returns desk, she said, to help stem the losses. New software can automatically instruct cashiers to decline certain suspicious returns.
China continues to be a troublesome region for Home Depot, but is declining piece of results. Just seven of its more than 2,250 stores are in China, down from the 12 stores it acquired when it bought a Chinese copycat company called The Home Way five years ago.
Home Depot is "shrinking to grow," Tome said, noting the store closures have cut China losses in half.

I am pleased to announce a newly installed live-chat site for all of your Pastafarianism-discussion needs: chat.venganza.org. Enjoy.
Robin Capper of RobiNZ, a resident of New Zealand, wrote the following article on his website and has granted me permission to republish it here. In the following text, Robin asks his country's conservation officials if anyone has carried out the Kiwi Motivation Test, as described in the Gospel of the FSM. He manages to get a reply and responds again. Enjoy. -bobby
Save the Kiwi (Apteryx) from the Flying Spaghetti Monster Kiwi Motivation Test
How could the Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM) threaten our national icon, the New Zealand Kiwi (Apteryx)?
This submission to a well recognized Government Conservation Agency explains it all:
I'm currently reading "The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster" by Bobby Henderson.
It's the official gospel of the deity known as the "Flying Spaghetti Monster" (FSM) and gives the true story of creation from it's beginning 5000 years ago to today. While that time period and the process may not quite agree with accepted scientific theory it gives convincing explanations for these anomalies.
Creation, the Big Bang, Dinosaurs, Fossils, Red Shifted Stars, Quantum Physics, String Theory – more correctly spaghetti theory – and the process incorrectly attributed to Evolution are integrated into a total world view guided by the unseen touch of the FSM's Noodly Tentacles.
It's a wonderful book that will result in many converting to "Pastafarianism" but there is a risk. I'm concerned non-believers trying to disprove Pastafarianism may impact our threatened national icon – the Kiwi.
The reason for this is material that appears on pages 47 & 48. Its a rebuttal of Evolution titled "Kiwi Birds: Flight-less?".
It explains the Kiwis inability to fly, conventionally attributed to environmental aspects like plentiful ground feed and a lack of predators, is not proven. Prophet Bobby states that in addition to being spherical Kiwis are also extremely lazy. He contends that they can fly but simply lack motivation and choose not too. He argues, "You'll never see me running but there is a good chance that I could".
Later on there is a challenge to evolutionists, "Evolution is just a theory", to test the "Theory of Kiwi Motivation" as summarized below:
For the sake of the tiny Kiwi population it's imperative that we avoid hordes of evolutionists performing this test. Of course as a Pastafarian I believe that they will fly safely to roost in trees, for the first time, but it's possible that our deity has made a slight mistake with Kiwi aerodynamics. Unlike many creators he does not claim to be infallible.
Therefore for the sake of all living Kiwis I must ask if any experiment like this, or other tests of motivation, have ever been done and if so what were the results?
Publishing these may save the needless motivation, or worse, of hundreds of Kiwis.
Their response should be considered carefully by Pastafarians and misguided Evolutionists alike:
Here is the Linguini theory of creation turned into Raviolli
If creation occurred 5000 years ago, then the ancient seashell fossils in the rocks of Central Otago must have been put there by the evolutionary army. The coal that has been mined on the West Coast for the last 150 years must have been imported from China and buried there and covered with forests to make it look natural.
Coal formation takes millions of years and it is proven to be the fossilized lycopodium forests of the Carboniferous Period which occurred from about 354 to 290 million years ago during the late Paleozoic Era. . Hence our current problem of releasing 'greenhouse gases' into the atmosphere as we dig the stuff up and release it into the atmosphere at an alarming rate.
The ebb and flow of glaciation, marine sedimentary deposition and plate tectonics must have looked like a million super-charged bulldozers given the state of New Zealand currently:
- The size of Mt Cook and the Southern Alps
- The geological distribution of various rock types hundreds of kilometers apart from the same source
- The vegetation cover of New Zealand.
We would have truly been the Shaky Isles! The only thing not moving would have been the moon and stars.
Beech forests have been known to cover certain parts of the islands (pollen records)and then after glaciation retreated, slowly advanced over the ground with their short distance seed dispersion mechanism. If your theory is correct, then the forests must have been turbo charged and leaped over a few mountains to attain their current distribution is such a short time-frame. – If they did not get smacked around by earthquakes and disappearing dinosaurs.
Flying kiwi forebears have long ago decided not to waste their energy on flying.
If the life of a human could be used as an analogy for the evolution of kiwi, then your hypothesis of flying kiwi would be like giving up Rugby at 5 and turning out for the All Blacks at 75 with no training in-between. – You might remember the rules of the game but you wouldn't be any good at it!
Don't throw kiwi off cliffs, its not the height that is the problem – It's the sudden stop at the bottom.
To which I responded:
Thanks for your well-reasoned rebuttal. The apparent age, spread and location anomalies can be easily explained by the influence of the FSM's invisible Noodly Tentacles. As he says: Evolution is "just a theory", science is "just a collection of theories"
And got a further response:
Scientific theory is based on a series of incidents that meet % of probability that are generally accepted. If science is a 'just a theory' then things like computers would be just a theory and we would be still communicating using smoke signals. Flight itself is a theory that was scientifically reasoned and with the use of fossil fuels, (millions of years old in theory) the age of air transport has become the norm.
So I conclude:
Here's an update on FSM communications:
Referring to the comments you can leave at the end of posts like this one. These are not moderated or censored in any way. We get thousands of spam comments a day, so there's always some sort of automated spam filter running to fight that. I've been hearing that a lot of comments are being wrongly marked as spam and that some users are being full-out banned. I've switched back to the old spam-filter, but this one has it's flaws, too. A few hundred comments a week are held in a "maybe-spam" folder – and I don't have the time to check it every day.
Comments are more likely to be held if they contain a lot of links, or if you're making many comments a day. I know a lot of people here like to use the comment system as a type of discussion forum, and that's fine, but the spam-filter will target you and there's not a lot I can do about it. Without an automated-spam-filter, the comment system would be unusable.
Discussion Forums
The discussion forums are moderated by a very hard working group. Anything written in the forums is subject to the moderators discretion, but they are very fair. Anyone who feels targeted by the comment-spam-filter here is welcome to move their conversations over there. The discussion forums are built on a user registration system, so spam is not as much of an issue.
We had a live-chat system up for a couple weeks. It was popular but the server couldn't handle it. I'd like to have a remote chat system set up. The one I'm looking at is around $50-$100/month. I'm looking for an advertiser to step up and sponsor it.
I get a lot of emails. I read as many as I can. But I'm still way behind. If you *really* need to get a hold of me, put something like **important** in the subject field and I'll probably find it quicker.
I have knitted and then felted a tribute to His Noodley Greatness. I wanted to share the flickr photo set of its creation with you.
See the rest here
I did some analysis on global mean temperature vs. the number of pirates and have come to a startling conclusion: Pastafarianism will bring the next ice age!
As demonstrated in the attached graph, by extrapolating the data we find that only 135752 pirates would be required to bring about the next ice age. This number of converts is well within reach! We're doomed!
Years ago, I took this photo on my seattle vacation.
I had no idea I would capture more than just a part of the skyline, and I couldn't even figure out WHAT EXACTLY I photographed.
You've opened my eyes – Thank you so much!
I heard some ID believer say that "the probability that humans have emerged from natural selection is the same as the probability that a monkey composes 'Hamlet' by randomly typing on a keyboard".
Well, I happen to have a monkey (Sheila) that likes to type at random on a keyboard. And today she typed this (see the attached picture).
We are pleased that the Flying Spaghetti Monster watches over our website development department at work. Things were dark and desolate before we were touched by his noodly appendage. But now all we sit in full pirate regalia enjoying our cubicles with thoughts of the stripper factory and beer volcano.

Nahh, I got you...
I just like the idea that he would be the reason and after all this years you find it out, by chance, and feel insulted and dishonored with no other way out then to go and challenge him to a magic pants dance battle royal.
One can always hope.

He came to Japan as a shodan and was promoted to nidan there. He married the daughter of a dojo owner and eventually became head instructor of the dojo. He was then promoted to 5th dan in accordance with his position as the head of the dojo. This might sound fishy, but the truth is that strict standards for high dan ranks is a relatively new thing in aikido. Ueshiba himself threw dan ranks around like they were hot potatoes.
My impression of Seagal, if anyone cares about my opinion, is that he is a legit master of aikido (albeit one who is out-of-shape and 25 years past his best work), but also an insufferable douche.

I think Seagal might actually have this one. He gets bonus points for doing the lezginka, instead of just clapping his hands.
Of course he kind of looks like someone taped a hamburger to his back and he's trying to get it, but he still gets bonus points for difficulty.

1I'm an Aikido, though not a good one. What most people don't understand is that Aikido is NOT a dueling art, it's not for two guys facing off against each other. It's a melee art, like during a big soccer fight, when people are running around throwing crazy haymakers. If you try and duel in that context, you'll go to ground and get kicked. You need to know how to throw people away and keep a clear space. That's what Aikido does. It's a different art, for a different purpose. It's not MMA

Great games. Better than other slots I have played. Not as many interruptions. Wins are good plenty of free spins and bonus games. Early yet will see how it goes further on.
Scott Dallas
It's a fun game that keeps things going. It doesn't pump you for money like a lot of ths slots do now which is irritating. You can play for a bit and if you lose it all get enough coins to build it back up.

The wins are very low. 4000 bet and most pays 200 to 400 coins. Occasionally you get 3000 coin pay Not very good

Seet Hong Kheng
Zeus Myth slot. Big win of 4,454 million plus. Frankly speaking all the adda slots are very nice to play by entertainment basis but not for real gambling. They will let you win big in the beginning but eventually they will consume up all your winning credits even if you have billions when the machines become unauthodoxed. If you have 500 millions you may play one million per spin for 500 spins, towards the end you will find yourself losing 20 or 30 millions. If you want to win big , you must bet small most of the time and bet huge at the correct timing. But when is the correct timing coming ? I will not rate any more on all other adda slot machines as my rating remarks will all be the same. Thanks to Adda Organisation and good days to our players. Happy playing.!

text: Hi guys. I just wondered when I should get my car serviced next. When I originally bought the car from blackhourse Jan 2012 they had changed the oil and stamped the book early. I was going to get Honda to redo it and stamp over the book but 3000 miles later, Honda had the car back for the ECU update and changed the oil again anyway. I wanted to keep full Honda service history but should I just leave it and get the next minor service which is due Jan next year when Id have had the car 12 months.?? .

Poppy Update - Post By Leo G.E.T. Forum
_ Final prepatory « on: Tuesday at 08:44:39 PM »
[poppy3] I am back for a few and have updated information. Final prepatory meeting finished today ....
The agenda will be announced and the schedule for the n/c is also to be announced tomorrow. Everything about the three main subjects has all been agreed upon at least the information that actually coming from their news media is saying so.
This time i trust it and think it is very accurate. The ss has not as of 10am this morning been supplied with any set date for the n/c. Kuwait can approve the release from chap 7 but they can't release.
That is up to mr moon and panel at the un. They do need documentation of all the actions that have been fulfilled by iraq goi and parliament. All these meetings have been very needed and they are trying to do this right and whether you believe it or not these have been in our best interest . Dr shabibi is protecting all of us. Poppy3

My puppy is on a low fat and low protein diet as she has liver and pancreas disease her current food is 19% fat and 8% protein is your food suitable for her
This is a diet which is based on rice, with turkey as the protein source. It is low in fat and protein and should be suitable for a dog with liver and pancreatic problems.The analysis you quote seems odd, as no dog food is just 8% protein to my knowledge, so there must be a mistake somewhere. The Burgess food sounds as if it should be suitable, but you should check with your own vet first.

No more newborn babies to be stolen, lost, or misplaced in Abu Dhabi as a result of applying a new infant tagging system. SEHA Health system and Johns Hopkins Medicine International introduced this system called "Hugs and Kisses" and it's now available at the Corniche Hospital. Once the baby is born, a bracelet is slipped onto his/her ankle while a corresponding tag is placed on the mother's wrist. So, without prior authorization newborn babies won't be removed from their specific place.
Then matching between the mother and her baby is confirmed by an electronic signal. In case of mismatched tags, an alarm to alert staff members. "The planning and purchasing of this system was initiated in the summer of 2010. There has never been baby abduction at Corniche Hospital. Patient Safety is our top priority, and this system allows us to utilize reliable technologies to ensure the safety of our patients and their newborns" said George Yacoub, chief executive officer who led the project alongside Sultan Al Mansouri, project leader and IT manager.
Ronald Lavater, Chief Executive Officer of Corniche Hospital, commented "The tagging system is used in some of the best maternity hospitals in the United States and Europe. We are proud to be the first medical center to bring it to mothers and babies of Abu Dhabi. Our hospital is dedicated to providing exceptional healthcare services. The new tagging system is in line with international best practice, and is yet another step in our commitment to patient-centered care".

President Obama will veto a major defense policy bill Thursday, just two days after the Republican-controlled Congress sent it to his desk.Full disclosure.
Obama plans to hold a photo-op in the Oval Office when he uses his veto pen on the National Defense Authorization Act, according to his public schedule.
The decision amounts to a public rebuke of congressional Republicans, who warned Obama not to veto the measure as part of a showdown over government spending.
Obama has threatened to veto the bill, which typically receives bipartisan support, primarily because it puts $38 billion into a war fund not subject to budget caps.
The president argues that it irresponsibly skirts spending caps put in place by the 2011 Budget Control Act. He has called on Congress to increase both defense and non-defense spending.
"The bill includes this slush fund tactic that's an irresponsible way to fund our most basic national security priorities," White House press secretary Josh Earnest told reporters last week.
GOP lawmakers have accused Obama of playing politics with national security by promising to veto the defense bill.
"There's no need — and frankly, no place — for any politics here," Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) said at a signing ceremony Tuesday. "So I hope the president will do the right thing and sign this bill for our troops and their families."
Republicans have pledged to attempt to override Obama's veto, but it's unlikely they have the votes to do so.
The Senate voted 70-27 to pass the bill, enough to override a veto. Democratic leaders have said, however, that some members would switch their vote to avoid defying the president.
The House vote count, 270-156, would not be enough to override a veto.
I called the F-35 death spiral but there was one (1) way out for the program. It would be if the President signed the NDAA that Congress sent him. Congress, with the backing of a few critters from bases that the F-35 was to be stationed in along with the usual defense hawks, could have/would have saved the program if this appropriation had been signed.
But as usual the Pentagon fucked up.
They backed the President's play and stated that they supported his veto of this bill....and so the last chance for the production ramp up dies with a veto signing ceremony....
The F-35 is fucked....proper fucked.
(Sidenote: F-16.net is suddenly grave yard quiet....I wonder why? Lol!)

During a recent presentation at EMS Expo I spent quite a bit of time talking about incongruity. I think it's an important concept to understand before you launch into learning tips and tricks for building patient rapport.
Incongruity is the act of being inharmonious in character or inconsistent. We identify it almost immediately in social interactions. For instance, say you're on an airplane and you're approaching the gate and the flight attendant quickly reads you a well prepared announcement thanking you for flying with their airline.
You know the one:
"We at UnitedContiAramriWest Airline know you have a choice of carriers and we sincerely…"
How do you feel? Do you feel like the flight attendant reading the message deeply cares about your business? How about when a sales person calls you at home to tell you you've just won a cruise? Do you yell for joy, "I won the grand prize!" or are you skeptical? "Where did I sign up for this contest?"
Ask yourself why that is for a moment? Why is it that the well thought out script of the telemarketer and the heartwarming thank you message penned by the airlines marketing consultant have such little effect. H0w does your brain identify the inauthentic so quickly? Why does it create the opposite of the intended effect?
The answer is incongruity; the subtle inconsistencies that we instantaneously register between the speaker and the message. If the flight attendant is trying to express appreciation, why is she talking so fast? If we really won the grand prize, why would they read us a script? Wouldn't they only have to say it one time?
That's incongruity. And you recognize it immediately, don't you? And then you ignore the message. (Or get frustrated and angry.)
This is why patient rapport building techniques only work if you're authentic. If you don't care, you can't fake it. Not with people who are having medical emergencies. The disparity between who you are and what you're saying will leak through.
Here's the short answer. If you want to be trusted, be trustworthy. If you want to be liked, be likable. If you want to be respected, be respectable. If you want people to feel cared for, be caring.
It's really just as simple as that.
Now it's your turn: Can you fake it in EMS? Leave us a comment and let us know.

For years, dentures have been considered the traditional and most popular option for replacing missing teeth. Then along came dental implants and the hierarchy of tooth replacement was adjusted. Since the first modern day use in the 1960's, dental implants have been considered by dentists everywhere as the ideal way to restore a smile with missing teeth.
Since dental implants arrived on the dental scene, patients who are missing teeth jumped at the chance to replace their teeth with a procedure that offers the closest thing to a natural tooth.
Dental Implants Can Save You Money and Improve Quality of Life
A recent study suggests that in the long run, dental implants are more affordable than all other procedures. According to this study from the International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants, dental implants were found to be "generally cost-saving or cost-effective in comparison with traditional tooth-borne prostheses".
The report focused on 14 studies made from 2000-2010 that focus on long-term costs of various tooth replacement options. While the study noted that implant patients paid more initially, the longevity of the implant restoration means that in the long run, they were the most cost effective procedure.
Dental Implants in Champaign, IL
At our dental office, we offer guided dental implant surgery for patients who are missing teeth. With this procedure, patients can receive dental implants in less time with the precision of highly advanced dental tools such as CEREC and Cone Beam Technology.
Because our process involves computer software for treatment planning and advanced 3D images of your mouth and jawbone, placing the implant is faster, safer and can often be done without incision or stitches.
Benefits of Guided Dental Implant Surgery
Some benefits of our unique dental implant process include:
- Treatment that is safe and effective because the procedure is pre-designed on a digital surgical template
- Less invasive procedure than traditional dental implant surgeries
- Faster recovery time, minimal pain and swelling
- Reduced number of office visits
If you are missing teeth, contact our office for more information on how choosing dental implants can save you money and improve your quality of life! Visit us at our office or call us today at (217) 355-9997 to learn about our guided dental implant surgery.

Research Handbook on International Law and Migration

Chapter 26: The African contribution to the protection of internally displaced persons: A commentary on the 2009 Kampala Convention
Moetsi Duchatellier and Catherine Phuong
With the adoption on 22 October 2009 of the African Union (AU) Convention for the Protection and Assistance to Internally Displaced Persons in Africa - also known as the Kampala Convention - Africa has acted as a pioneer in the protection of internally displaced persons (IDPs). This Convention, which entered into force on 6 December 2006, is the first, and for now only, continent-wide legally binding instrument on the protection of IDPs. The magnitude of the issue of displacement in the African continent warranted a regional response that Member States addressed by drafting and adopting this crucial document. According to the Internal Displacement Monitoring Center (IDMC), an international non-governmental organization monitoring conflict-induced internal displacement worldwide, 40 per cent of the world's IDPs live in Africa. On the basis of data about internal displacement in 18 sub-Saharan African countries, IDMC estimates that, in 2012, 9.7 million people were displaced by conflict and violence in the continent. Sudan, notably the Darfur region, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Somalia are the countries most affected by violence and conflict-induced displacement. One should add to this figure, the growing number of people displaced by natural disasters such as the thousands of IDPs displaced by drought in the Horn of Africa. In 2012, it is estimated that 8.2 million people were newly displaced in Africa because of natural disasters. This figure is believed to be four times more than in any of the previous four years.

[You might also want to check out the article here on midlifebachelor.com entitled, How to Date the Wealthy]
As I approach my 52nd birthday, I find myself a never married man with no prospects. Most of my relationships have lasted one to three dates over my entire life, and many of the women that I have had sex with were brief encounters (one night stands, not prostitutes). I was engaged once, but she had a problem with alcohol that ruined things. It seems that the women that I wanted a long term relationship with the most were not interested in more than friendship with me. The women that were most interested in me, were either not very attractive or had way too many problems and drama in their lives. Now, I know that attraction is not the only criteria for a successful relationship, but if I am not attracted to a woman, then I can't see a future with that woman, other than friendship. I have however felt strong feelings for a few women that most would not consider very attractive. They too liked keeping me as a friend. I think that when someone tells you that they want you as a friend instead of a mate or lover, it means that they are not attracted to you sexually.
At this age, I find that most single women I see would consider themselves too young for me. I am reluctant to ask out women that are obviously twenty or thirty years younger even if they seem slightly interested even if I really want to ask them out because I don't want to be embarrassed at their reaction at the age difference. I've had a couple women to agree to go out only to cancel when they found out my age.
I recently retired after selling my business and am financially set and live well. That has not yet seemed to attract any female attention either. I always heard that if you had money that you would get the ladies. Well, I became a millionaire and it hasn't helped so far. I look about 40 I am told and I consider myself a decent looking guy. Women closer to my own age are often grandmothers and even if they are unmarried (divorced), we don't seem to have much in common and they don't seem to have much interest in me either. They may notice that my eye tends to be drawn to younger women. I do find some older women attractive but almost all are taken. I have all but given up by only asking out a few women over the last ten years, but I do still hope for love, companionship and intimacy. Any suggestions?
MIDLIFE BACHELOR ANSWER:First of all - congratulations! You have done well for yourself ... sold your business ... are financially in great shape ... that is AWESOME ... particularly for this day and age. I'm sure that you appreciate your good fortune and success, and so if you are bothered by anything else, then KNOW that you do have your security.
As far as women go - my best advice for you is that you get your numbers up ... which means make a proactive effort to meet a lot of women. What is "a lot of women", or how many is that? The answer is - it is all relative. I'd suggest using eharmony or chemistry (visit our Online Dating Promotional Codes and Links page for some great trial offers) or any of the various dating sites to help get yourself out there. The more you meet in person, the better your chances of landing a good relationship. And sometimes it can take TIME ... a lot of time.
It can also depend on how you present and project yourself toward women. Hopefully you found the Midlife Dating Advice section of midlifebachelor.com. If not, there are some good article there to check out - even if as a sanity check or reference:
1) Midlife Bachelor Personal Makeover
2) Develop a Strategy for Midlife Bachelor Success
Since you said you are a young-looking 52, then I'd suggest that you focus on women in their early 40s. You can try for 30s, too - if you can pull that off. But the main thing is - you have to put yourself out there ANY WAY YOU CAN and meet women who are available. I'd suggest the online dating sites, plus you could try local activities of interest ... and/or maybe network through female friends of yours, etc. Online is easiest though.
You should also consider joining our Midlife Forum here on midlifebachelor.com - where men and women our age discuss various issues, including issues like yours.
