text: "Bleep"- Wolf I uttered that exact expletive on Monday. I spent my Memorial Day drinking beer in a chair half submerged in Cazenovia Creek (pronounced 'crick'). It was the greatest day of my life, until I realized that crap doesn't take a holiday. It was a Bachelor recap night. Nothing destroys your good time like that sobering realization. Emily Maynard is back for another series of pointless dates that will eventually lead to a 4-week engagement. She has 16-or-so boyfriends remaining, so there's a lot of action to cover. There will be some building repelling in this recap. It might be a good idea to put the kids to bed if you plan to read this out loud. Chris Harrison said something very important in the beginning of the season. He said that, "There are no rules". And it's true. This show has absolutely no rules. It's like this show is Ireland and rules are snakes and Chris Harrison is Saint Patrick, only, instead of praying, he gives adulterers keys to rooms so they can have sex with their many boyfriends or girlfriends. Emily will go on 3 dates with her boyfriends this week, just like a normal single mom. There will be a pair of 1-on-1 dates and a group date. Please keep in mind that there are no rules. Forget everything you know about an Earth with rules because this show doesn't care about your science. I've had a lot of sun today. The show begins with Emily exploiting a daughter who bears the name of a dead father on camera for 3 pointless 'set-up' seconds. Emily is a single Mom, by the way. Not that this means anything on a show with no rules. She hurries over to a Charlotte mansion to pick up her boyfriend Chris for the first 1-on-1 date. I have no idea who Chris is. Emily mentions how nervous and excited she is for the date, but she can't decide whether she's more nervous or more excited. We're only 2 minutes in and already there is huge drama. My wife and I shake 30 aspirin into our hands in case this pace continues. They go for a walk down a street and stop at a building. Bachelorette producers throw down ropes so they can repel the building and eat dinner on the roof. It's super romantic, especially how the happy couple has to stand there for an hour as some dude straps a bunch of safety equipment to their bodies. As contractually obligated, Chris makes the comparison of climbing a building to falling in love. It starts to thunder as they climb. The music lets everyone watching know that this is serious and people might die. There are no rules. Emily talks about how comfortable she is to be climbing a building with Chris. So far, this date has done more damage to my brain than a day in the sun. They eat on the roof because that is what people on this show do. Emily is really into Chris and Chris is really into Emily and it's cute and annoying. She does freak out that Chris is one year younger than her. There's nervous music and I get nervous. They eat on T.V. When dinner is done they head back down to the street for a private concert from a Country Artist. Said Country Artist rhymes 'boom boom' with 'Mmm Hmm' and I punch a hole in some drywall. A Street in downtown Charlotte is shut down for this awkward concert. Emily and Chris make out in front of the band to make the gridlock worthwhile. Back at the mansion, producers fabricate a plot by having the gnome guy Tony call his 5-year old son at home because he misses him. It's a weird tangent. I didn't know it at the time, but ABC is so starved for material that they hammer us over the head with this sidebar. Next is the group date. A bunch of guys go to the park so they can take turns staring at Emily's chest. Emily hands them a football and a soccer ball and then leaves for an hour. (true story. Please keep in mind that there are no rules) Emily's friends just happened to be in the park wearing high-definition make-up and microphones. She asks them to interview the group of dudes to see if they'd be good husband-fathers-breeders. The interviews are weird. This one blonde friend basically tries to have sex with all of Emily's boyfriends. She tells them to take their shirts off, do push-ups and climbs all over them. I'm sure her husband will enjoy watching this back and then explaining to his kids how important this show is. The questions are all about being a father. Emily has become a horse breeder. I'm surprised she doesn't get up to look inside of the guys' mouths. When they're done answering stupid questions, Emily blows a whistle and a bunch of kids come running into the park to test how well the guys interact. It's the creepiest moment in Bachelorette history. A fricking van door actually opens up and random kids jump out to play with mic'd up strangers. Who owns these children? Who lets their little boy or girl play with random ab-ridden egomaniacs? Later that night, the group goes to a bar to get drunk. It's amazing how the producers get every locale to look exactly the same. They all have a pool and fern-adorned gazeboes for sharing secrets. I can't believe my computer let me get away with 'fern-adorned gazeboes' without a red squiggly line! Tony spends the cocktail hour crying about the son he abandoned and calls his child in front of a camera. My bet is that Tony has figured out that he isn't going to win so he's going with the 'miss my kid' angle so he can still go out a winner and roll through some Oregon lumberjack hoochies. It's, like, Season 18 of this show and my computer still hasn't recognized 'hoochies' as a word. Emily went through the same ordeal and demonstrates how much she understands what Tony is going through by dumping him on National Television. She politely tells him to stop being a drag on her princess party and sends him home to his son. It's dramatic. ABC plays some touching 'dump the sad Dad' music. There should be a rule against dumping a Dad for being said but…sadly...... no rules.... Doug, the other Father dude who is super into being a Father, does not leave the show to go back to his kids. Emily gives the rose to a giant Christian guy named Sean who her friend previously tried to climb. On a side note, Bachelorette producers are starting to paint personal trainer Ryan guy as a villain. This show is very much like Pro Wrestling. Arie gets the third 1-on-1 date. He's a race car driver which is super dramatic because Emily's dead ex used to race cars and I really need some rules to be laid down on this show because things just are sliding off of the rails. They get on a private jet to fly to Tennessee because that is what a young couple does to get to know one another. The words 'excited' and 'nervous' gets thrown around. When they land, they head over to Dollywood because ABC must have a piece of it. Why does Dolly Parton need a theme park? Should other artists follow suit? Am I going to one day pack up the kids and head to Six Black Flags? (I wrote out 48 different park names and they were all terrible. I fell on Six Black Flags as my favorite. I also liked C-world C-world Music Factory and Bush Gardens. Please keep in mind that I am sunburned, a little delirious and that there are no rules.) Arie and Emily have Dollywood to themselves so they play games and ride a Roller Coaster. I'm not sure if ABC had the park shut down or if it's just a normal slow day at Dollywood. In the middle of their fun, the real Dolly Parton shows up and there is just a lot of Dolly Parton singing songs she apparently wrote for this episode of the Bachelor and there's awkward dancing and then another song and it's been 11 minutes and Dolly Parton is not done singing and then, when she's finally done, she sits down alone with Emily to talk and I thought this was a date and not a commercial for Dolly Parton. I'm man enough to admit that I learned a ton about love and life from Dolly Parton's heartfelt conversation with Emily. I feel bad about punching a hole in that drywall. I need to learn to love more. I love everyone reading this. Holy crap, Dolly Parton is singing again and this pointless date has taken a half-hour of my life away. When they're done learning about life from Dolly Parton, Arie and Emily sit down for a romantic dinner in a barn. Emily is super into Arie but she pretends like she isn't giving him a rose. It's the first time she's ever made a joke. It's almost interesting. Then, they make out. Emily compares Arie to her dead boyfriend. There are no rules. Arie says, "Emily has exceeded my expectations by 1000%". First off, that's impossible. There is no such thing as 1000%. But, even if there were such thing, that would mean he expected her to be awful. If Emily were 1000% more dreadful, why would Arie have agreed to go out on a date with her? She would have to have been a Gollum to be 1000% less of a woman than the one he took to Dollywood. The cocktail party is next. ABC first allows their planted character to show America why he's been manufactured to absorb their hate. Kalon, the rich fake contestant, sits down with Emily for a scripted conversation. Kalon cuts Emily off a bunch of times and acts like a jerk. The same woman who just dumped a guy for missing his son does not instantly dump Kalon for acting like a big jerk. This show is awful. Who falls for this? Next, some guy who has an egg (how has this not made my recaps yet???) breaks his egg to show that his egg is not his identity. I'm so tired. I have no idea what just happened. They smashed an egg. What the hell do you want from me? The egg's name was 'Shelly'. If you read this far down, I love you. I didn't need Dolly Parton to show me that. Wolf didn't talk a lot this season and it's disappointing. Wolf has been a quote machine so far this season. He's like a modern day slutty Walt Whitman. Emily talks with some guy named Alessandro and he straight up tells her how hassled he'd be by kids. Emily cries and dumps him, pre-Rose Ceremony. She's a dumping machine. Then, she cries some more and makes out with two different guys. Some of the other guys talk about how they're not comfortable watching her make out with other guys. They must not have heard the Dolly Parton speech. The super-built Chris guy all but tells Emily that he loves her and loves her daughter who he hasn't met and he's been on one date with her and I hate this show. The Rose Ceremony is next. I swear to God that they brought it three more contestants and snuck them on the set for the Rose Ceremony. I feel like I haven't seen half of these guys. With the previous dumpings, there's only one guy going home. It's Party MC Stevie. I'm sad to see him go. He was gonna punch Kalon. After the Rose Ceremony, Dolly Parton comes out and sings 8 more songs and solves all of my problems with her wisdom.

Joplin Lincoln Days
By: Jake Hamilton
Updated: February 23, 2013
"We're having Lincoln Days, which is a celebration," says state Senator Ron Richard.
But Saturday's meeting was just about celebrating. State leaders spoke with local residents about how they plan to keep moving Missouri in a positive direction.
"We'll be talking about lowering taxes to compete with Kansas and what they've done in recent months," says Sen. Richard.
While legislators like Sen. Richard are planning these steps, some state leaders have already started making their moves.
"The biggest things that (Sen. Richard) and I just filed this past week is we are going to develop a damage infrastructure fund that will be a way for us to help with the rebuilding here in Joplin," says state Senator John Lamping.
Other representatives have their sites set on different issues, like the government's current stance on health care legislation.
"Last year there was a Supreme Court case that took out all of the medical malpractice caps for anybody in the healthcare industry," says Speaker of the House Time Jones. "That is a huge disincentive for folks to rebuild hospitals. To bring more healthcare jobs to our state for doctors and nurses that want to work here."
Although they may have different ideas about what the most important issues are, they all share one common goal for the state of Missouri.
"Protect the freedoms and opportunities that Missourians have had for so many decades and to continue to advance us down that path," Jones says.

Connecticut looks ready to reform the outdated way we vote in this state, and it's about time. Thanks to a rigid constitution Connecticut has suffered long lines and overcrowded polling places, especially in urban areas, for too long. The rest of the country is moving ahead with voting reforms, and, after careful consideration of all the consequences, so should we.
Secretary of the State Denise Merrill outlined her plans for voting reform in an editorial in the Hartford Courant last week, in which she called for a constitutional amendment to allow for early voting and no-fault absentee ballots. I couldn't agree more. Early voting works, as successive elections in states all over the country have demonstrated, and a voting period that lasts up to a month before the official Election Day opens the doors to many people who might not have been able to vote before.
People who might not be able to vote for a wealth of reasons, such as the examples Merrill gave of hurricane victims and first responders, would have other opportunities.
I had to be out of the state during the 2010 election and voted by absentee ballot. The experience was easy, fast, and surprisingly satisfying. I didn't have to deal with any lines, nor did I have to try and carve some time out of my schedule to head to the local high school to vote. I never mind doing these things, for the record, but being able to sit at my kitchen table and fill out my ballot there was refreshing. It would also be amazing to have the ability to go to the polls on, say, a Saturday instead of waiting for Tuesday.
However, these voting reforms require us to take measures to ensure they work well. We would have to determine where and when to hold early voting, and we would have to staff these locations with well-trained workers. We'd also have to make sure that the cost of early voting is not shouldered exclusively by towns and cities. Other states hold early voting during the four or five weekends prior to the election, and some use experienced permanent staff instead of temporary poll workers at each location.
We also need to make sure early voting isn't used as a political tool. The 2012 election saw curtailed early voting in some swing states thanks to Republicans hoping to swing the election their way. In fact, Florida's record long lines and up to 200,000 citizens who decided not to vote because of those lines were caused in part by a sharp decrease in early voting days. Connecticut needs to make sure this doesn't happen. Early voting days should be thoughtfully set and difficult to change once they're in place.
Another thing we need to do to make early voting work is to reform our antiquated way of checking in voters once they arrive at the polls.
Machines in use in other states since at least 2006 can let voters check themselves in, streamline the voting process, and reduce the need for poll workers. Right now, most locations in Connecticut still use huge printouts to check in voters and to give them the right ballots. The Secretary of the State's office already is trying hard to drag reluctant local election officials into the 21st century; electronic check-in belongs with optical scan machines, early voting, and online results reporting.
Lastly, the state needs to do a better job of counting results in a timely fashion. Right now, the counting of absentee ballots is scheduled to begin between 10 a.m. and noon on Election Day itself. If we do approve no-fault absentee ballots, registrars could find themselves with a mountain to count and not enough time to do it in.
Common-sense voting reforms are the best way to ensure as many people as possible are able to vote, and they'll make sure Connecticut stays with the rest of the country as voting and elections continue to change. The next step for an amendment to the state constitution allowing early voting and no-fault absentee ballots is approval in the legislature. If the amendment is approved by a 3/4 majority it'll go to the voters in 2014, and by the time the next presidential election comes around in 2016, we'll finally be ready. Continued...

On reservation this offer includes:
1 night in a suite or apartment
VIP welcome with champagne
1 gourmet dinner for 2 persons (drinks included)
1 breakfast for 2 persons
Hotel and restaurant in a village (Verneuil-sur-Avre) During the Hundred Years War, the town of Verneuil-sur-Avre was the setting of a battle between England and France. Today it is celebrated as one of the most beautiful destinations in France, and is a fantastic place for a relaxing holiday. In February 2010 it was awarded the label of one of the "100 most beautiful destinations in France". In English hands for some time, the city was re-conquered in 1449 by the French. The small château of Le Clos has retained some of its English charm with its spacious and manicured lawns bordered by regal, centuries-old trees. Another unique feature is the Anglo-Norman conical turret roof with flambé glazed bricks and a floating oak staircase, inspired by the great architect Eugène Viollet-le-Duc.
Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux and hotel in a park (Busnes) This architectural gem stands in the middle of a romantic park, one hour from Le Touquet, between the Opal Coast and Belgium. The subtle balance of classic architecture and contemporary art makes this the perfect setting for what is one of the top restaurants in the region. Grand Chef Marc Meurin pays tribute to Pas-de-Calais producers by using ingredients like Boulogne-sur-Mer scallops, Étaples bass and other fish from the North Sea. Meurin believes that "because of the currents in the nearby sea, the fish become strong and daring, which ultimately enhances the quality of their taste". Savour his creations in two glass-roofed restaurants and learn the tricks of the trade by attending his cookery classes.
Hotel and restaurant in a village (Montreuil) Lindsay and Christian Germain, the owners of this manor house just a stone's throw from Le Touquet and the Channel Tunnel, have combined the best of England and France to make a visit to this property an absolute must. When English charm meets French fine dining, it makes for a seriously enjoyable stay. Lunch on the terrace, dine with friends, or simply relax in the flower garden with a book, a glass of champagne, or a cup of tea, at what was once the country retreat of the Wooster/Rothschild family. A stroll along the ramparts of the town and some of the finest beaches on this Opal Coast await.
Hotel and restaurant in a village (La Saussaye) Formerly an inn, at one time a grocer's shop, and then a country delicatessen; this ancient Normandy manor house has already lived several lives. Today it is an intimate hideaway, romantic down to the finest detail. Stroll under the willow trees and enjoy the collection of vintage mini-bars. An hour from Trouville and Honfleur, this is the ideal starting point for sampling the best that the region has to offer.
Hotel and restaurant on the seafront (Honfleur) Once a favourite refuge for impressionist painters, La Ferme Saint-Siméon is celebrated for its bucolic surroundings and beautiful channel light. Monet and Courbet came here working on their colours, while the poet Baudelaire escaped the melancholy of Paris for the little port of Honfleur looking for inspiration. Today the farm is fully restored and the premises offer an exceptional spa as well as beauty treatments and relaxation based on organic products such as milk and apples from Normandy. "Oh, Saint-Siméon", exclaimed the painter Eugène Boudin in one of his journals. Indeed it is hard not to love the place, and even harder to leave it behind. Lys offer valid throughout the year except for weekends ("weekend is defined as the period from Friday evening to Sunday noon included)
Hotel and restaurant in the country (Audrieu) Château d'Audrieu, located between Caen and Bayeux, offers the opportunity to travel back in time. This 18th century edifice, listed as a historical monument, offers the warm welcome you associate with a family home. The elegantly proportioned château is set in an extensive 25 hectares of wooded grounds and gardens. Hesitate not a minute longer, all the charms of Normandy await you at Audrieu! Turn the pages of history and discover not only the beaches of the D-Day landings, but also Bayeux and its famous Queen Matilda's tapestry, Caen – the city of the Dukes of Normandy –, and Mont-Saint-Michel – a treasure of French heritage –, not to mention the restaurant's gourmet delights.
Relais & Châteaux offers you a vast choice of travel gift certificates : discover honeymoon travel package, spa gift certificates, romantic gift ideas, and luxury gift ideas for special occasions, and discover our guide of hotel, restaurant certificates to select theme stays around the world

12th Annual Corofin Traditional Festival
25 February 2013 - 03 March 2013
The festival is based around a number of free recitals (Mon-Wed) and paid admission concerts (Thurs-Sat) in the village's beautiful Teach Ceoil (House of Music). It is a wonderfully intimate setting with capacity for 130 people. Visitors get the opportunity to hear the country's top traditional musicians as if they were in their own living room. The festival also boasts an impressive week-long session trail, featuring over 100 of the best musicians from County Clare and further afield (Ireland, Britain and the US). All these sessions are free admission and open to visiting musicians to join in and mix with the best in the business. A feature of the festival is the Saturday workshops, where many of the visiting musicians impart their knowledge to young and old improving musicians. Corofin Traditional Festival is known far and wide for the intimacy of its recitals and concerts, the welcome it affords visitors, the wonderful session trail and the general good-natured atmosphere. It's a place where visitors make life-long friends with local people, and return year after year as a result.

Cuteness OVERLOAD.
Fluttershy better be sorry for destroying my phone - September 11, 2011 at 5:02 PM

Now if I could get my hands on a phone... - September 11, 2011 at 5:02 PM
- Trollestia said...
Oh good good. I might not be able to use it yet but by im downloading this.
- September 11, 2011 at 5:03 PM
- baschotaria said...
Seriously, this is the best thing ever. - September 11, 2011 at 5:03 PM
- fizzlefist said...
pretty good impersonation of fluttershy, and cuteness overload on the ringtone
- September 11, 2011 at 5:05 PM
- g1 - Sindiewen said...
This...This...This is just SO ADOREABLE! I'm now going to figure out how to get a ringtone on my phone and use it /)^3^(\
- September 11, 2011 at 5:05 PM
- alexrockclimber said...
I would so get this but it would be hard to explain it to people if they heard it
- September 11, 2011 at 5:05 PM
- CoffeBlack said...
I would totally use this, but i can barely hear the pokemon theme song blaring at me when my phone rings so i think fluttershy would be too quiet... ): I should download it anyways just to have it. xD
- September 11, 2011 at 5:06 PM
- Octavia said...
Voice is decently close. This is rather cute. Probably one of the cutest ringtones ever!
- September 11, 2011 at 5:06 PM
- HaysforPonies said...
Wait...Xiki Muffin? I know this girl! She does the voice for Nepeta, Feferi and I think a few others characters for Octopimp's Homestuck voice acting skits.
If there are any Homestuck fans out there, she's actually not that bad. A lot more likeable than the zillion amateur audition attempts. She makes a cute Nepeta AND Fluttershy! - September 11, 2011 at 5:07 PM
- Brian Johnson said...
No Ms. Fluttershy, you weren't interrupting anything.
I'm sure that only the most vile of Parasprites would negatively react to that ringtone. - September 11, 2011 at 5:09 PM
- Nightmare Moon said...
Confound it, Fluttershy! I was listening to the crickets chirp and now you've scared them away!
You're such a loudmouth. - September 11, 2011 at 5:12 PM
- John Savant said...
I love this. Now I can't decide whether to use Winter Wrap Up 8 bit or this!
- September 11, 2011 at 5:12 PM
- The Baron said...
Sweet Celestia, I think the cuteness levels caused my eardrums to imploded!
- September 11, 2011 at 5:13 PM
- AnimeDoom said...
I would totally use this super cuteness but the speakers on my phone are basically dead and I can't even Dragonforce at max volume when it's in my pocket so there is no way I could hear this which is a massive shame.
- September 11, 2011 at 5:14 PM
- SIaanme said...
Alas, while this is pretty much the best ringtone ever, it's just too quiet. Also I don't want to risk a heart attack every time my phone rings.
- September 11, 2011 at 5:18 PM
- Captain British said...
iPhone users:
Start iTunes and find the song you want to convert. (It must be an MP3.)
Right-click the song and choose Create AAC Version. You should immediately see a new 30-second version of the song.
Drag that version out of iTunes and into the folder of your choice.
Open the folder containing the 30-second AAC file you dragged out of iTunes, then change the file extension from .m4a to .m4r. Double-click it and it immediately gets added to iTunes' ringtone library.
Finally, sync your iPhone. When it's done, you can head into the settings and select your new ringtone. - September 11, 2011 at 5:18 PM
- Tachyon said...
This is terrible for a ringtone - why would I ever want to interrupt my phone to answer a call when it's happily making these adorable noises? "Everyone shut up! Fluttershy is talking! <3"
- September 11, 2011 at 5:24 PM
- BTBuddha said...
My phone... it not worthy enough to hold such cuteness!
- September 11, 2011 at 5:25 PM
- Lightning Delight said...
And why exactly do you assume I have a bland video game song as my ringtone? Hm? What is my ringtone, you ask? Still Alive. But that doesn't mean anything. At least I don't get diabetes every time my phone rings. And no, I'm not bitter just because my phone isn't a smartphone and I get charged money to download ringtones.
So much want!!! - September 11, 2011 at 5:25 PM
- King Kay said...
My ringtone is already Dashy's "At the Gala" (8-bit), but it might just have to move over to make room for this.
Daaaaaawwwwwwww. ^_______^ - September 11, 2011 at 5:26 PM
- lamebunny said...
Hah! this is awesome! I may have to replace my current "I sure do look funny.. woo! woo!" ringtone..

Confound these ponies, they drive me to change my ringtone

- September 11, 2011 at 5:31 PM
- Rekiara said...
Seriously. If I make Fluttershy my ringtone, I'll never answer the phone again. Anyone who would interrupt Fluttershy to talk to some loser like "My Boss" or "My Wife" or "My Mother In Law" needs to reprioritize. - September 11, 2011 at 5:32 PM
- Nightmare Moon said...
This is actually too quiet for me to hear. Even in near-silence, its far-far quieter and less squeakable than Sweetie Belle's 'You can not run from me!'
- September 11, 2011 at 5:33 PM
- Kenko706 said...
I don't even OWN a cellphone and I would buy one just for this.

can someone please PLEASE help me get this onto my iphone 4?!
- September 11, 2011 at 5:34 PM

I have to agree with that. When Fluttershy speaks, the world better listen. - September 11, 2011 at 5:35 PM

but...but, I'd have to get rid of my CMC ringtone. :( Such a dilemma!
- September 11, 2011 at 5:38 PM
- g1 - Sindiewen said...
I had to compress the file down a bit more to work (my phone dosent like 400kb ringtone's), but It still sounds adoreable and cute and beautiful and just adoreable /)^3^(\
- September 11, 2011 at 5:38 PM
- dw1482 said...
Fluttershy, please stop giving me diabetis...
Or not, I guess it's worth it. - September 11, 2011 at 5:41 PM
- Greyyo said...
i currently have pinkie saying twitchatwitch. which is perfect becuase my phone also vibrates!
- September 11, 2011 at 5:42 PM
- Abalidoth said...
My current ringtone is FOREEEEVER and, while this is cute, Pinkie is hard to compete with.
Now we just need a Celestia quote that's suitable for a ringtone and I'll NEVER change my tone again... - September 11, 2011 at 5:42 PM
- snowfi6916 said...
This is by far the best ringtone ever. The person who did the voice for Fluttershy was pretty good too. Only thing that would make it better was if Andrea Libman did it herself.
- September 11, 2011 at 5:44 PM
- starfox64x said...
This is adorable... im not manly enough to have it on my phone though...
- September 11, 2011 at 5:44 PM

I do like homestuck. And ponies... stupid incompatible phone - September 11, 2011 at 5:47 PM
- elyk0956 said...
I uploaded a .m4r version to media fire, I'm assuming the IPhone 4 uses the same file type as the IPhone 3GS
Seriously wish there was an edit option... - September 11, 2011 at 5:49 PM
- ShakeBunny said...
I literally cringed a little at how cute this is. I would use it, but I would never get any of my calls on account of how quiet little 'ol Fluttershy is. I'll stick to using the 8-bit Winter Wrap up as my ringtone. :D
- September 11, 2011 at 5:51 PM

Todo list before:
Homework; go to bed on time
Todo list after:
Find MicroSD card Adapter STAT! - September 11, 2011 at 5:52 PM
- Atiarotias said...
You can't expect anyone to answer the phone because you shut off Flootershy
- September 11, 2011 at 5:57 PM
- Atiarotias said...
My phone ringtone is Rainbowdash's LOUDER at moment.. I'll probably stick with it for now
- September 11, 2011 at 5:59 PM
- Sunspark said...
Ok. You're TRYING to out me as a Brony. Still - can't resist the cute! (First time I've actually changed my ringtone.)
- September 11, 2011 at 6:01 PM
- FoxOfWar said...
*squees uncontrollably for a moment*
Too bad my current (cheap) cellphone doesn't handle custom(downloaded) tunes, or I would use this. Gonna save this for when I inevitably do get a new phone though. <3
Sure, I would get few strange looks, but seeing that I already have long purple hair... *grin* - September 11, 2011 at 6:03 PM
- The Lotus Tea Dragon said...
For anyone who has a phone that doesn't like 400KB ringtones (like my LG900G), I have compressed it into an MP3 at 209KB, while having it still sound nice and clear.

I was about to complain about her Fluttershy impersonation has a bit of Ditzy in it but I said to myself "Ahhh fudge it, it's too cute...I want it"
- September 11, 2011 at 6:08 PM

Current ringtone: Benny Hill theme
Or...Fluttershy being adorably adorable?

I took the audio from Swarm of the Century when she runs into sugar cube corner, slides, and asks if she was interrupting. That audio clip plays whenever I get a text message

- Risky said...
duuude. I am so happy someone else has that song as their ringtone. (recorded versions can be so quiet, yeah)
I'm probably just nitpicking, but I just couldn't use this ringtone, since its not actually fluttershys voice. Its too easy to tell its an imitation. It would irk me every time someone called. still, kudos to the girl, it was a pretty good impression. - September 11, 2011 at 6:30 PM
- Altherix said...
There should be a law against that much cuteness in one place all at once.

i thought it was sorta lame to be honest. it uses a lot of the overused fluttershy jokes sorta like "if that's ok with you"
it doesnt sound like what fluttershy would say, and doesnt really sound like fluttershy. but that's my critique - September 11, 2011 at 10:36 PM
- Len Asakura said...
@alexrockclimber You like MLP and this ringtone is F*cking cute, nothing else to explain... Or you could say that you discovered this and thinked that it was funny xD

I'd prefer the original voice actor, and something much, MUCH shorter. Still interesting.

My heart...
If it was the original VA it would kill me. Seriously.
Anyhow, really cute but I won't replace my current one. For simple reasons. I wouldn't hear this one. Or wouldn't pay attention to it.
My current one is a damn annoying and loud ringtone I even hear in a noisy crowd :P - September 12, 2011 at 12:41 AM

- purpletrauma said...
Now that I'm thinking about it.. yeah.. there SHOULD be more ringtones! That's something simple, small, that I haven't seen a lot of.. by which I mean not at all until this one.
.. Admittedly I can't use them on my current phone. Apparently Verizon really likes making a whole bunch of their phones only capable of taking "official Verizon" ringtones bought from their own store.. it's being replaced soon, so hopefully in the next phone.. - September 12, 2011 at 2:59 PM

now thiknn about a scenario where you should have muted your phone.. (cinema or anything alike) you have an louder version (like commented +6-8db)and then someone calls...fluttershy is so sorry that no one will give you bad looks :D

X-JHBuild is a framework for building and working with X.org modules. It makes use of JHBuild and is specialized for working with modules that use Git as VCS.
The sqlite3 command line tool is required for parts of the shell customization.
A Python version 2.6 <= x < 3 is required.
Installing X-JHBuild
If you have been using a X-JHBuild version prior to 0.1.5, please note that you need to convert your installation and repo-groups as described in the release mail for X-JHBuild-0.1.5 .
To install X-JHBuild as well as private versions of JHBuild and Git-Python execute the following commands:
git clone git://x-jhbuild.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/x-jhbuild/x-jhbuild cd x-jhbuild make install
The last command creates the directory ~/.x-jhbuild where it is possible to customize global aspects of X-JHBuild. The .internal subdirectory is a temporary installation location. Files in there will be overwritten and possibly wiped out when updating X-JHBuild. The main script must be available through PATH under the name xjh. It is located at:
There are useful shell helpers in:
They allow to extend the git-sign in the prompt and facilitate navigation within a repository group.
If all you want is to quickly build all bleeding edge X.org modules, just navigate to a (possibly new) directory where you want to have all the sources and execute:
xjh init xjh build
By default, the result will be located in the INSTALL sub-directory.
If you want to build the xorg-server and all drivers, while following the progress in a nice HTML log, execute the following:
xjh tinderwrap start xorg-drivers
Get main help and a list of all X-JHBuild subcommands:
xjh -h
Get a list of all JHBuild subcommands (this only works in an initialized repository group):
xjh help
All subcommands support the -h/--help options:
xjh <subcommand> -h
The JHBuild Manual applies to the JHBuild subcommands (xjh help), the configuration in the buildconfig section and modulesets.
Shell Customization
To display repository group related information in the prompt and facilitate inter-module navigation there are utility functions available in ~/.local/share/x-jhbuild/shell-utility-functions.sh.
There are two functions that you can re-implement to customize the appearance of the prompt: __xjh_prompt_prepare and __xjh_sign_color. Both example functions are documented and fully functional. To try them out, use statements like the following in your shell startup file.
# The bash completion for Git, does also contain the __git_ps1 function which # is already supported in__xjh_prompt_prepare. The location of that file is # distribution specific. source /usr/share/bash-completion/git # Source x-jhbuild shell helpers source ~/.local/share/x-jhbuild/shell-utility-functions.sh # In Bash, use PROMPT_COMMAND to prepare the environment that is then accessible in PS1. PROMPT_COMMAND=__xjh_prompt_prepare # An example prompt could look like this: PS1='\[\033[32;49m\]\u@\h \[\033[36;49m\]${XJH_PROMPT_PATH}\[\033[00m\]\[$(__xjh_sign_color)\]${XJH_PROMPT_SIGN}\[\033[32;49m\] \$\[\033[00m\] '
The navigation function makes it easy to jump to a module inside of a repository group, and is able to clone a destination repository if it does not exist. To create the alias cdx for that navigation function and activate bash command line completion for it, add the following:
alias cdx=__xjh_repogroup_internal_cd complete -F __xjh_bash_completion_for_repogroup_internal_cd cdx
The settings in the global configuration file ~/.x-jhbuild/xjhrc will be subsequently overridden by the ones in a repository group at .xjh/xjhrc and optionally the selected config token in .xjh/xjhrc.token/. These files use an ini style format that is described in the example file at ~/.x-jhbuild/xjhrc.example. The plug-in config can be used to display available configurations and documentation for each option. All JHBuild configuration options are located in or below the buildconfig section.
You can put your own plug-ins into the directory ~/.x-jhbuild/plugins. Plug-ins are executables that can obtain diverse information from the environment. Useful environment variables can be inspected by executing the plug-in show-env. Plug-ins can store persistent data in the directory $XJHBUILD_PLUGIN_DATA_PATH. Files or directories created there, should have a prefix that corresponds to the plug-in name. For shell plug-ins that use the new installation (e.g. start the server), the plug-in show-env displays examples how to easily apply the necessary modifications to $PATH and $LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
You can put your own modulesets into the directory ~/.x-jhbuild/modulesets. It is possible to include other modulesets at the same location where the specified moduleset can be found by simply adding include tags with relative href attributes, like:
<include href="xjh.modules"/>
There are two main ways of specifying moduleset locations. The moduleset-repo access needs to be configured in the configuration section core.moduleset-repo.
1. Convenient, token based. Without .modules suffix. Without any path separator:
xjh : in the global configuration directory at ~/.x-jhbuild/modulesets
o:xjh : moduleset repo accessed through http.
r:xjh : moduleset repo accessed locally. (cloned if necessary)
2. Arbitrary locations. With .modules suffix. With at least one path separator
/tmp/my.modules : absolute paths.
http://where.ever.com/more.modules : a http-URL
r:people/xyz/audit.modules : repo relative paths.
It is also possible to define moduleset location aliases in the configuration.
Moduleset Stack
The moduleset stack records all modulesets that are currently active. It can be inspected and modified with the plug-in ms-man.
With this stack it is possible to extend a moduleset provided by a project with your own modules and forks. There is a documented example moduleset installed to ~/.x-jhbuild/modulesets/example-extension.modules that can be used as a template for writing such modulesets.
CWD-Module Adaption and Activation
It is possible to automatically append the name of the module that belongs to the current working directory to the command line. This makes it easy to work with the current module. It is also possible to activate an inactive CWD-Module for one call. See xjh -h for more.
It is possible to use a clone in place of the corresponding main module by means of a simple configuration option. For example, to use the xorg-server of mrx in place of the main module, add this configuration snippet:
[module.xorg-server] fork = mrx/xorg-server
From now on, with the few exceptions mentioned below, wherever you see or use the module-id xorg-server it will refer to mrx/xorg-server. There is always only one repository of a kind (xorg-server in this example) in the set of active modules.
Only a few parts of X-JHBuild are aware of forks and can deal with or display real module-ids (mrx/xorg-server in this example). Those parts are the navigation function, the plug-in status when used with the option --forks, and the plug-in fork-man.
Fork Definitions
Forks are defined in modulesets.
A fork can comprise a whole new module definition when wrapped into a <fork-module> element.
<fork-module name="forkname"> <autotools id="main-module-id" ... > ... </autotools> </fork-module>
To only replace the branch in a copy of the main module, it is possible to wrap a branch definition into a <fork-branch> element.
<fork-branch name="forkname" id="main-module-id"> <branch ... /> </fork-module>
In both cases the id attribute specifies the main module of which it is a fork.
For fork-names, there is the policy to use an identification and a slash as prefix to the main module id for which it is a fork, like in mrx/xorg-server.
Writing Plug-ins in Python
Plug-ins that use Python will have access to all the tools provided in the xjhbuild library, as well as to Git-Python and JHBuild.
Git-Python Access
You can directly use Git-Python or use the xjhbuild.gitaccess library module, which tries to make information about a Git repository available more easily. It is possible to execute any Git command with python syntax and obtain the output of it, by means of the class git.cmd.Git. See the Git-Python documentation section Using Git Directly.
JHBuild Access
Information about all the modules can be obtained through the library module xjhbuild.modaccess. The plug-in modinfo is basically just a frontend to modaccess. So, if you need some of the information that modinfo provides in your own plug-in, take a look at modaccess. If you want something completely different from JHBuild you can import the jhbuild library module with all necessary modifications by executing
from xjhbuild.jhbuild4xjh import *
Using the configuration mechanism is as easy as describing a configuration section and collecting the settings when needed. There are currently two sorts of configuration sections:
The multi-type version contains a collection of known options with distinct type, default value, and description.
configsection_status = xjhconfig.ConfigSectionMultiType( section_name=__file__, options=( ("color-config", "cyan, green, red, gray", "help message"), ("log-width", 80, "more help"), ) )
The same-type version contains an arbitrary number of options that all have the same type.
configsection_command_alias = xjhconfig.ConfigSectionSameType( section_name=[__file__, 'subsection-one', 'subsection-two'], option_type=list, section_desc="help for this section." )
Both section types support the same interface. It is documented in the library module configsection. However, configsection is supposed to be from-included into another library module that applies project specific adaption, and should be imported nowhere else. The intention is that there is a Singleton/Borg class that makes the project wide configuration available. For X-JHBuild this is the library module xjhconfig.
It is possible to obtain single options, a dictionary of all options, or an option messenger object similar to what OptionParser produces. Defined at the global plug-in scope, these sections can be displayed with the plug-in config.
Supported value types are bool, string, integer, float, and sequences. The format is explained in ~/.x-jhbuild/xjhrc.example. It is also possible to have an arbitrary number of subsections, where the structure of such subsections is defined by an instance of one of the two classes described above. See configsection.DynamicSubsections for more.
There is a naming policy for plug-in sections, to easily relate a configuration section to a plug-in, and to prevent ambiguities: The top-level section of a plug-in should have the same name as the plug-in. It is possible to specify __file__ to accomplish that. Because the subsection separator is a dot, it is no longer possible to have a dot in a plug-in name. If you follow this policy config can automatically display those sections.
Other tools
There are a lot of tools in the xjhbuild library. Some examples:
Get the name of the CWD-Module:
To obtain the root directory of the current repository group, or the path to sub-locations within the xjh-directory:
xjhbuild.repogroup.get_repogroup_root() xjhbuild.repogroup.get_xjh_path('plugindata')
A simple tool to color, indent, and truncate terminal output is:
There are diverse small tools in the library module utils:
Error Generation
If anything from xjhbuild is imported (if xjhbuild.__inti__.py is executed), the current sys.excepthook will be wrapped by another excepthook that will display only the string representation without the traceback for exceptions that have a name that ends in CommonError. The exit code will be 1. To always use the previous excepthook, set the environment variable $XJHBUILD_SHOW_TRACEBACK to a non-empty value.
Announce Mails
Ancient Mails
Up to version 0.1.5 all releases were announced in one thread on xorg-devel. The information in there is largely obsolete.

Thank you for your participation and interest in the Mises Community. This software platform has seen its day, however, and so is now closed. We are redoing our entire site, so look for some exciting developments by the end of the year. Thank you for your support of Austrian economics, liberty, and peace.
Feedbooks has become a major central source for free reading materials. It's accessed by Kindle devices, Sony eReaders, and now the iPhone reader Stanza. Is there any way to get some of the free texts - even just the fundamentals like Human Action and maybe Economics for Regular People - on there?
IMHO, the best market to hit in ereaders is the iPhone crowd. Partly because I'm one of them, but also because their reader market share is through the roof. In a month they've gotten more installs than Amazon Kindle's entire anticipated 2008 sales. I mention this because there are other formats supported by Stanza... I believe that you can include your online books in Stanza if they're in epub format. Or Munseys.com might be another option...?
Just trying to get the word out! :)
Oh, and before anyone says it, I know that Stanza desktop will "convert" PDFs and share them with your iphone... but it doesn't preserve linebreaks or formatting! :(
update from 5 minutes into the future:
This will help with looking for info on how to do the conversion, or on how to get a repository included on Stanza:
I think the Mises Institute staff are too busy just getting books scanned and online. I'm sure they wouldn't mind if some volunteers converted and made some of the books available.
Dude, I'd be all over that like an American on a social program... but I'd want a written guarantee first that I wasn't violating anyone's copyright. Cause probably the first few books I'd want to transfer would be Human Action, Man Economy and State, and Economics for Regular People. They're all pretty definitely under copyright, so I'd just want to make sure. :)
So, overlords? If someone can confirm for me the policy on this, I'd be happy to help replicate formats...
If you find a PDF online, it is ready to go. I know no exceptions to that.

No mortgage? No foreclosure risk? Wrong. Beware of tax liens
On Saturday, May 18, a coalition of nonprofit groups will hold a clinic to help those who owe property taxes get square with Louisville Metro government. By paying off the delinquent taxes or at least starting a monthly payment plan with the Jefferson County Aattorney's office homeowners can avoid costs piling up, said John Young, an attorney at the Legal Aid Society in Louisville.

How so is it an over statement? Again, Brown is not a lock in place for 2013. He re-signed to a 1 year deal! He's strictly here to see if he can make the team in 2013. What do people see in Edwin Baker that also make him a lock in 2013? He's going to be 22 in July, he still is very young and raw, he also had fumbling issues at Michigan State. Fozzy Whittaker? Camp body, possible practice squad addition, we need to fill out the roster.. If Ryan Mathews goes out we have no run game again. Period. That means no effective play action, and Rivers throwing the ball 50 times a game. We need insurance at the position. We need someone to take the load. The Ravens last year had Ray Rice. Was it necessary for them to take a RB in the 3rd? Or how about the Broncos with Willis McGahee and Knowshon Moreno was it necessary for them to trade up and take a RB in the 3rd? Woodhead adds another dimension to this offense, in the passing game. He offers nothing in the run game except quick draw plays. Brown offered nothing in the run game last year. Both Woodhead and Brown are strictly 3rd down backs. I'm not labeling it a glaring need, but people need to look beyond 2013. We need someone to offer a run game of some sort if Mathews goes down. I think we draft one in the 3rd or 4th round.
Absolutely it was a need for the Ravens to take a RB in the 3rd, Ray Rice got the FT and was threatening to hold out of training camp unless he got a contract. Willis Mcgahee (31 ) years old. No Show Moreno was borderline to being cut. Packers had James Starks as their RB the year they won the SB Saints had Pierre Thomas and Colts had a terrible Joseph Addai. Like I said a good RB is a plus, but also a luxury. Until Ryan Mathews is no longer on our team or out for the season, then yes I'll worry. But Mathews and Woodhead this year with possibly Ronnie Brown sitting on the side lines until needed, is better than most other teams situation at RB. With so many other holes to fill ILB (Which we don't have) SS (which we don't have, until Taylor is healthy and can prove he is our guy), CB (which we don't have until Wright or Gilchrist step it up) LT (Assuming what happens with Gaither) RT (which we don't have) OG (assuming Rinehart plays one spot, then what? who fills in the other or for for depth?) NT (we don't have a back up, or a guy to give Cam a breather) OLB (outside of Ingram and Johnson, can you really trust English to be our 3rd down pass rusher along with stay healthy?) That's 8 so far, with many other spots to fill for depth purposes. So IMO Mathews, Woodhead, and Brown are looking pretty good right now. Would I like another RB?Yes!!!!!!!!!!!! but I'd also like another (or a true number 1) WR. In do time my friend, in do time. Here's to hoping Marqise Lee next year
Oregon LB Kiko Alonso spent extensive time with five teams, according to draft insider Tony Pauline. Alonso had dinner with the Miami Dolphins, breakfast with the Arizona Cardinals then interviewed "extensively" with the San Diego Chargers, New Orleans Saints and Tampa Bay Bucs, per Pauline.
Ravens said multiple times last year they didn't believe Ray Rice was holding out and they would reach a deal. He had fumbling issues, and it showed this year in the playoffs and Super Bowl, and Bernard Pierce came in for him. The NFL is a 2 back league. For the Chargers case its a 3 back league. McGahee was 30 when they drafted Hillman, and also highly doubt they were going to cut Moreno because he had a season ending injury, and they cost him the 12th overall pick. 2009 & 2010 he had good years, not great but good. When the Colts won it, it was Addai's career year and rookie year. He averaged nearly 5 YPC. When the Saints won it Pierre Thomas had 700+ yards on the ground splitting time with Reggie Bush, who caught 47 passes. Packers, I have no answer for. They went on one of the best Super Bowl runs in NFL history. And until Ryan Mathews isn't on the team.. okay, so we're letting another RB walk now. Why? So we can reach at a RB in the 1st round again trying to fill the void of LT still? Those were big shoes to fill for him, and he's been unlucky with injuries. Hopefully with this new regime, he excels. I see a very capable back, we all saw in 2011. Hey opinions will be opinions, I just like a good sports argument, so no hard feelings. But Telesco said he likes Stuckey and Taylor. Also, the corner and safety market is pretty deep, we can still come away with a vet. It's only day 5 of free agency, its a process. Shareece Wright or Marcus Gilchrist, one will be a starter in 2013.
It wouldn't surprise me one bit for the 9ers to pull a NE move, and trade some picks that ends up getting then an extra 1st next year
I don't know maybe the Ravens drafted Bernard Pierce because they truly had no one in place behind Ray Rice. Maybe they didn't have as many holes to fill, and were only one or two players away from a SB run where they could pick RB. Maybe they weren't in a 1 or 2 year rebuild mode where they aren't exactly calling it a rebuild. Many RB's don't have much tread left on the tires after 30, Moreno had only good year, after that had multiple knee issues, got a D.U.I., and certainly weren't Elway or Fox's guy. 4 years later if you're a 12th overall pick and your roster spot is behind a 30 year old RB, a Rookie, a career PS guy. Odds are your not going to have a long career. Why can't we have something similar but RM runs for 900+ on the ground and Woodhead catches 60 REC Until RM isn't on the team meaning...............once he isn't on the team, he chooses to leave FA, retires, ETC. Not saying I don't want a RB, Im just not counting on one either. I just think we should use any picks we do have on spots that we barely have any depth at.
That's hyperbole. Hell, as is we haven't had much of a running game even with Mathews healthy. A good OL makes an average RB look good (particularly zone-blocking schemes). It's the same as a good pass-rush and safety tandem makes average corners look good. The Redskins plugged a 6th round pick rookie behind a quality (even when injured) OL and the guy averaged 4.8 YPC and totaled over 1600 yards on the season - this is a guy that ran a 4.67s 40 yard dash. With the ever growing supply of RB's in the draft and in the league, the considerably sounder approach is bolstering your OL and not worrying about the back your'e plugging in back there until your OL is set. The Ravens are and have always been, under John Harbaugh, a two-back team - even when they had a stud runner. The Broncos were fleshing out "Peyton's scheme", they didn't have a back on the roster to that point that could run Peyton's token "stretch play" that he and Addai made a staple of that offense. Yes, because our OL was effective in run-blocking last year, right? Because any back should be able to produce behind sub-par run-blocking when teams know the play (Norv's HB Draws and A-Gap runs on 2nd and anything over 4 to go could be counted on like clockwork). I am and I do. The RB talent pool is incredibly saturated, so much so that unless you're getting a star-quality runner with elite upside (and that's really more of luxury pick), spending early picks on RB's is kind of pointless. More and more redshirt sophomore are declaring every year. The number of eligible junior RB's that declare has significantly increased and continues to increase every year - because they realize they have a limited shelf-life and might as well get paid for it while they can. The saturated pool of rookies only further saturates the free agent RB market, reflexively.
And yet Mathews still ran for 700 yards in 2012, and only playing in 12 games.. And Norv abandoned the run whenever the kid was on fire. For example, in 2011, He had a 3 game stretch in where he had 55 attempts and 363 yards, averaging 6.6 YPC. I hate the Alfred Morris comparison. Teams were worried with RG3 and his 4.3 speed in that option. Some of Morris' biggest gains came from that option read hand off. Again, I don't care if we take a RB in the 3rd or 4th. I really believe we will, there's deep talent at the position, and Montee Ball and others have a lot of upside.
Sorry, but you're losing credibility quickly. Montee Ball doesn't have upside. He's pretty much met his ceiling at this point and he's got more wear on his tires than just about any other RB in this class - and more than some of the mid-round rookies drafted last year even when you add on the carries they got in the NFL this year.
Wow, you are right. I just looked at his numbers, 924 carries in 4 years at Wisconsin. Holy ****, I didn't think he was used that often! Average 231 carries a year. But the production, 5,000+ yards, 77 TD's, 5.6 YPC, pretty amazing stuff, but he does have a lot of wear.
Here's my latest attempt 1. Lane Johnson OT Oklahoma He's been punched in here since Fischer went crazy at senior bowl. If he's there he's the pick. 2. Larry Warford OG Kentucky Combined with Johnson and Rhinehart the OL is looking better 3. Jordan Poyer CB Oregon St Personal favorite, he's a fantastic ballhawk and can challenge and push Wright 4. Kiko Alonso ILB Oregon Big athletic thumper to replace our precious thumper. 5. Marcus Lattimore RB South Carolina If he falls this far I'd take a shot. Nothing to lose especially given Mathews problems 6. Kwamie Gathers NT Georgia Questionable decision to come out works in favor. Has the size and talent but must be coached thoroughly. 7. Oday Aboushidi OT Virginia Think he will drop far after poor senior bowl and combine showing. Worst he's a swing tackle who could play inside. Best he could be a starting right tackle.
I despise Pete Pricksco, but I love his latest mock... http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/fullnflmockdraft-PetePrisco I don't really agree with the logic behind the Lions pick,, and the same with the Dolphins passing on Johnson. But Fisher falling to us would be amazing.
Id love that to happen but it is hard to imagine. Buffalo will be screwed if they pick Barkley at #8...lol . It will be Buddy Nix demise.
Then I forgive you. Seriously though - he has the size, decent footwork, but just doesn't seem to care that much about competing.
I'm bored so I'll throw one out with a surprising LT pickup, and no OL in the first round. 1. Jarvis Jones OLB Georgia Two years in a row OLBs from the SEC. If Louteilei is here I might consider him but we already have three impressive young guns there already. I could consider Cooper or Warmack but I don't see us going guard this early unless all LTs are taken. Considering how poor we were AGAIN on 3rd downs, I want to get the best group of pass rushers I can on the field simultaneously. And I'll taken proven (Jones) over potential (Ansah) 2. Eddie Lacy RB Alabama If you are serious that Mathews needs competition, bring Lacy in. No I don't take seriously his injury in the off-season. He's the best all around back and though he's more Mark Ingram than Richardson, he's got alot more elusiveness than Ingram. 3. Barrett Jones OT Alabama Did you forget he was all-SEC in 2011 at Left Tackle? He's a picture perfect technician with the mindset and ability to play left tackle in any scheme. If Trent Richardson could run behind him, and did very well in 2011, I'll take him happily to rebuild our OL. 4. Leon McFadden CB SDSU I break up the SEC love fest with an Aztec defensive back. I'm going smaller than our previous corners but I love his ball hawking and his physical skill set. I don't think he's a #1, but he could easily be a #2 and provide some depth if/when? Derek Cox gets injured. 5. Brennan Williams OT North Carolina And just like that I'm back in the South, though this time in the ACC. If Williams checks out healthy before the draft he's probably a day 2 pick. If there's questions about his health or if it'll take him a little more time, watch him fall like a stone. I personally love the player and think he's a fantastic mauler at right tackle, so I will take him on and, at worst, give him a red shirt year. 6. Gerald Hodges LB Penn State Just an all around fantastic linebacker with the production to match. Nothing to hate about his game or his talent and he is a player who at the minimum can push Mouton for his job and his roster spot. 7. Colby Cameron QB Louisiana Tech Just in case it really is Rivers and not just his offensive line. Love his intangibles including his determination, and the physical attributes aren't too bad either.
I have questions for Eddy Lacy. I'm not his biggest fan. He gets banged up at the college level, never mind the NFL. And he did has fumbling issues, sounds familiar doesn't it? Barrett Jones scares me. He can either be crazy good, or be a journeyman across the OL, with teams not knowing where he belongs. I think it's clearly center for him. Plus, he had that Lisfranc injury, which tore 2 ligaments in his foot. We also know about Lisfranc's here in San Diego don't we?
I think the draft will look like this, 1. KC - Luke Joeckel OT 2. JAX - Ezekiel Ansah DE 3. OAK - Shariff Floyd DT 4. PHI - Dion Jordan OLB 5. DET - Barkevious Mingo DE 6. CLE - Dee Milliner CB 7. ARI - Eric Fisher OT 8. BUF - Geno Smith QB 9. MIA - Lane Johnson OT 10. TEN - Jonathan Cooper OG I think Miami for sure trades up now. NYJ need players, and they won't mind moving 2 picks back to gain a 2nd rounder. Plus, Jarvis Jones will be there still as well. I think we take a trade back, possibly with the Cowboys, and Jerry Jones' profound love for Kenny Vaccaro at 11, and will take him, giving us the #18 overall pick, and pick #47 in the 2nd round. And at 18, either Star Lotulelei will fall this far or Sheldon Richardson, Jonathan Hankins will be here. Then we can take OT Menelik Watson at 45 and OG Larry Warford at 47 to sure up the OL need. So.. 1. Star Lotulelei, Sheldon Richardson, or Jonathan Hankins NT/DE 2. Menelik Watson OT 2. Larry Warford OG 3. Jamie Collins OLB 4. Le'Veon Bell RB 5. Gerald Hodges ILB 6. Zac Dysert QB 7. Jake Stoneburner TE/H-back Just some thoughts..
I could see why, many are comparing him to Michael Oher in terms of raw ability. But, I can't see a team taking him in the 1st round just because he compares to him. I see someone taking Terron Armstead way before Watson. Armstead will go anywhere from 20-32. I can't see him making it out of the 1st round.
Just one outside of the rest Jarvis Jones OLB, Georgia Minus the Spinal chord issue Jones has the talent to be considered a top 5. Reports saying his health is a non issue, he may still slide a bit. Ingram had struggles in his rookie season, and hopefully can recover like Liuget did in his Sophomore year. Terron Armstead OT, Arkansas Pine Bluff We all know Rivers getting protection is number one, But Until I see what they do at both Tackle spots (release) It may not be necessary to use a 1st on a Tackle if we decide to keep Gaither. They brought over Dunlap in FA for what my thinking may be either competition for Clary (which may very well be), or as insurance "doing it right" If Gaither gets hurt. Having Armstead on the roster allows us to develop and also see if he can later replace Gaither or Clary. Jon Bostic ILB, Florida Arguably one of our most important needs on defense. With the loss of Takeo Spikes we lose a Leader, and a solid Run stopper. As one of the top ranked run stuffing ILB's Bostic would fill the need for a run stopper, could maybe one day take up the leader role, Im not familiar with his character. Cornelius Washington OLB/DE Georgia I don't believe Washington will be around in the fourth, but if he is WE MUST POUNCE!!!!!! With Players like Jones, Jenkins, Ogletree etc. coming out of Georgia, Washington may be overlooked. Having Ingram, Jones, Johnson and Washington, we could possibly have the top pass rushers in the league. Alvin Bailey OG Arkansas Outside of Rinehart, we literally have no OG's. Luckily for us, OG's can be found all over the draft. BPA Depth BPA Depth
I swear to you I will puke if this happens. If we draft anything other than a dire need in the first round I'm going to be sick. If we are looking for a guy to give a Cam a breather we can grab a body in the later rounds. We need an OT, or OG in the first. I would go OLB/CB before I went NT. I don't care which one it is but if we spend a top notch pick on a guy who will be used sparingly I am going to throw up.
I agree with that. Im also not big on drafting a QB that low. Never have been. We can find 3rd string QB's anywhere. They are a dime a dozen.
And I really don't want any part of Watson. I have zero trust in his long-term commitment to football.

BBC Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert - Janine Jansen/Itamar Golan
Thu 31 Mar 2011 1pm, LSO St Luke's
The Times, 5 Apr 2011
Jansen and Golan gently warmed to their subject, capturing the essence of Schubert's characteristic vacillation between light and shade, major and minor, as instinctively as if the music were being composed on the spot. And their rhythmic drive was tugged back here and there just enough to make the finale tingle with zest.

Fri 25 Mar 2011 7.30pm, Symphony Hall, Birmingham

Valery Gergiev achieved this triumphantly on Friday, cajoling and manipulating a splendid London Symphony Orchestra in an enthralling delivery of this tricky score.

Seen and Heard, 6 Apr 2011
... the orchestra showed no hesitation, demonstrating levels of technical mastery and precision of ensemble that left no doubt as to the health of this still magnificent sounding orchestra and its rapt response to Gergiev's direction.

Shchedrin/Shostakovich/Tchaikovsky - Valery Gergiev/Leonidas Kavakos
Wed 23 & Thu 24 Mar 2011 7.30pm
The Times, 28 Mar 2011
With its strange, sliding woodwind threnodies and chromatic timpani writing, the LSO and Gergiev gave the work [Shchedrin Lithuanian Saga] a performance of compelling strength.

... the vigour of Gergiev's interpretation, all darting flashes of colour and contrast, was immensely appealing, and the finesse and panache of the playing were second to none. Very fine.

... no one could have played the crucially placed and ever so gradually gearing-up cadenza with greater purity of tone or intensity of expression than Kavakos, nor carried it through so tirelessly to the final cannonade of a whirlwind finale.

All those aspects of Kavakos's superb artistry were there in force – his visceral intelligence, incredible breadth of musical imagination, a ravishing range of sound that seems to emanate from within him through the violin, and his spellbinding, seemingly natural virtuosity. What a guy! What a performance!

Woodwinds had a glorious night, rhythms and colours brilliantly articulated.

A burnished quality in the lower strings reminded us that this is a work that is, above all, about the pleasures of this earth. The finale, quietly lilting and superbly controlled, was pure joy.

... a forward-moving, going-somewhere performance, given with devotion. In short, this without-dogma, with-ardour, wise, experienced and, above all, young-at-heart account was a real tonic.

BBC Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert - Patricia Kopatchinskaja/Polina Leschenko
Thu 17 Mar 2011 1pm, LSO St Luke's
The Spotlight, 18 Mar 2011
Lunchtime is an hour which always flies by – the acid test for a lunchtime concert is if you leave wishing it had been a full, conventional two hours. On this occasion I definitely wanted more. Luckily the restaurant downstairs was on hand to console with coffee and cake.

Beethoven - Sir Colin Davis/Jonathan Biss
Sun 13 Mar 2011 7.30pm
classicalsource.com, 15 Mar 2011
The slow movement was of majestic tragedy, Sir Colin finding a depth of feeling I have never experienced in this music before. The scherzo positively danced along, the trio well integrated. The finale returned to the resolve of the first movement, the LSO playing with intensity and brilliance. Magnificent!

This was a spirited performance, full of spring, brio and no small amount of fury ... In short, a masterclass in the art of conducting Beethoven was unfolding before us.

Messiaen/Bruckner - Sir Simon Rattle
Mon 7 Mar 2011 7.30pm
The Guardian, 9 Mar 2011
Rattle was absolutely on top of the piece, directing with a Boulez-like tension and severity, and the LSO playing was top notch.

Notwithstanding the symphony's incompletion, the best was left until last. Right from the Adagio's imploring initial phrases, Rattle saw this most intractable of movements as an evolving and continuous whole.

Seen and Heard International, 9 Mar 2011
Rattle sculpts the music and creates moments of real beauty. He is also conscious of the work's ritualistic dimension, and in many of the more dour movements he stood before the players, solemnly articulating the beat as if he were officiating at some divine observance.

The Independent, 8 Mar 2011
The litanies and their responses had the LSO woodwinds tripping Messiaen's light fantastic – into the valley of the shadow of death we danced – and 'the great multitude' of the final section had Rattle terracing the 'black-Sabbath' gamelan to a trumpet-topped, roof-raising climax - a handful of the most implacable chords in music. Quite something.

The huge block-like sounds were placed with perfect exactness, and the crescendo towards the climactic ending of each movement – each one more apocalyptic than the last – were shattering in their impact.

Gergiev's reading was both valid and deeply moving. Finally all tears were wiped away, all coughing silenced, in a breathless, peerlessly executed coda.

Gergiev's pacing of the adagio — still on the brisk side, but warm and tender — felt absolutely right. And the LSO strings played majestically for him.

Great power from the brass and a huge body of string sound produced a stirring and impressive central climax, and the slow retreat into silence was studded with sensitive solos from violist Edward Vanderspar and cellist Rebecca Gilliver.
