YouTube - Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who (2008) Teaser Trailer

The story of Horton:
Horton the elephant lived peacefully in the jungle when one day he heard a voice coming from a very tiny dust speck that was floating around and landed on a dandelion. Because of Horton's enormous ears he was the only one who could hear the dust speck.
He learned that the dust speck was in fact an entire world full of people and he was talking to Dr. Whovey who believed that there was something bigger beyond the realm of his dust speck universe in which his people lived. His people (the Who's) believed Dr. Whovey was a crackpot because he believed in life beyond their world.
Meanwhile all of the other animals in the jungle had believed that Horton had gone crazy because he was talking to this dust speck and they could not hear the voices themselves. So they decided that both Horton and the dust speck needed to be dealt with. Horton was going to be locked up and the dust speck was going to be boiled. Horton needed to convice them that what he was saying was true. Meanwhile Dr. Whovey had to convice his own people that their world was in jeopardy of being destroyed.
It's a great story which when you compare it to our own planet, we are nothing more than a speck of dust floating through a vast universe of space.

I endeavor to read every day. I want to keep myself surrounded by books, and aim to keep my mind and creativity always flourishing. I have been struggling with trying to find someone, or some place where I can express my opinions and thoughts on the books I read, because it seems my tastes don't always match up with those of my friends, and especially my family. (Reading is a bad word to them—except my sister; she's the only person I know that reads more than I do. But she thinks Twilight is good reading, so there lies my problem with discussing literature with her.)
Because this tumblr account remains mostly unused, and I already have two blogs — one for my creative writing and one for positive motivation — I figured this could be as good a place as any to write my book reviews. I can learn how to use Tumblr this way as well.

(BPT) - When it comes to New Year's resolutions, most people start with great intentions, but catch themselves falling off track sooner than expected. By February, nearly half of Americans have already failed to keep their resolutions1. Resolution makers understand the importance of developing good habits and maintaining a well-balanced lifestyle — whether that means exercising more or cooking healthier meals for themselves and their families — but hectic schedules can make it difficult to practice healthy habits regularly. And when it comes to eating well, recent research2 shows that one in four families skip healthier purchases often due to price.
To address these issues, HumanaVitality® has introduced Vitality HealthyFood™, an engaging way for HumanaVitality members†* within approved states to get on a healthier path and save 5%*** on Great For You™ healthier food purchases at Walmart®**. HumanaVitality is also bringing practical wellness tips to life by partnering with registered dietitians and family nutrition experts, Liz Weiss and Janice Newell Bissex, founders of MealMakeoverMoms.com.

We charge by the amount of space your items take up in the truck and not by the amount of time it takes us to remove your clutter and unwanted items. Our trained staff looks at the items you want removed and gives you a free estimate for the amount of space your clutter and unwanted items will take up in the junk removal truck. If the junk takes up more space than our staff estimated, you do not pay more than the price you agreed upon. If it takes up less space, you are charged a lower fee. We value your patronage and want to be your choice for junk removal in the future.
Unlike some other junk hauling companies, there are no hidden or surprise surcharges when you hire Junk King™. Our fee includes all labor, vehicle expenses, dumping and recycling fees.
Here are the steps to see how we charge:
Our dump boxes are 12 feet long by 8 feet wide by 5 feet high. That is 18 cubic yards: Our trucks are about 20% BIGGER than our largest competitor. Because our trucks are king-sized compared to their trucks, we carry more and you pay less to have your clutter and unwanted items hauled away.
While we are happy to take away your clutter and unwanted items, we are unable to dispose of items classified under federal and state laws as hazardous materials.

A guy dies and goes to heaven. His tour guide starts to show him around the whole place; the tennis courts, the main lobby , when they come upon a room full of clocks.Some are going fast, some slow and some normal. " What's with all the clocks?" the guy asks his tour guide. " each clock is for each person on earth. Every time they tell a lie, their clock goes faster," he said.Well that makes sense the guy thought to himself. just then he noticed a clock on the ceiling going tremendously fast , and much faster than all the others. " what's that?" the guy said pointing to the ceiling. " Oh, that's George W Bush's clock. We use it as a fan."

I get lost, messed up and bored
When I'm alone too long
I can't sleep, function and eat
When I'm not with someone
Late last fall she ended it all
And moved to who knows where
Just like that she vanished and packed
And never even called
Do you feel a certain sense of synergy
Between yourself and me?
A kind of macabre and somber
Wonder twin type of harmony
What if it was you?
You that I needed all along
I felt like a fool
Kicking and screaming
And pretending we were wrong
Let's get wrecked on Pop-Tarts and sex
And see the Taj Mahal
Let's save birds from Prince William Sound
And skateboard through the mall
Let's fight crime with mangoes and limes
And join the PGA
Let's win big with every spin
But hurry I can't wait
Do you spend a fortune on those late night
Prepaid television scams
In search of the perfect blender
Steak knife and nonstick frying pan?
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/it-had-to-be-you-lyrics-motion-city-soundtrack.html ]
What if it was you?
You that I needed all along
I felt like a fool
Thinking we were completely wrong
It seemed like a dream
A beautiful scream
That echoed forever
And made us not afraid to feel a thing
And after it ends
We'll try to be friends
They say that what doesn't kill us
Makes us who we are
All this time and every thing's changed
But I still feel the same
All good things eventually end
And get washed down the drain
What a disaster it would be
If you discovered that I cared
A little too much for friends
But not enough to share
What if it was you?
You that I needed all along
I felt like a fool
Now that I'm sure that I was wrong
It had to be you
It had to be you
It had to be you
I knew it was you

The story of identical twins June and Jennifer Gibbons. Refusing to speak to adults, the twins communicate in their own private language, their only relationship being an intense and turbulent bond with each other. Speechless is a powerful portrayal of the twins secret world and their struggle to find a voice against all odds.
Our Review:
Michael Coveney - 6 August 2010
The astonishing story of "the silent twins" was told in a book by Marjorie Wallace, and this overwhelming new play by Linda Brogan and Polly Teale (who also directs) distils the dramatic essence.
June and Jennifer Gibbons, identical twin daughters of a respectable West Indian couple, turn a deaf ear to an alienating, racist environment at home and at school, and communicate only with each other.
They embark on a course of crime and destruction while also acting out the Queen's Golden Jubilee in their bedroom, with Barbie dolls, and going completely berserk while their mother watches the wedding of Charles and Di on television.
The catalyst for their outbreak in sex and drugs is a spoilt rich American kid, played chillingly and extrovertly by a fit-looking Alex Waldmann.
Natasha Gordon and Demi Oyediran are superb as the twins, sullen and frightening, and there's a fantastically messy scene change that sets up...

Essential Asian Flavas- Various Artiste CD
Price per Unit (piece):
It is amazing to think that it took a bunch of American hip hop producers to take some Bollywood beats and vocals and turn the UK Asian music scene on its head. Timbaland with Missy Elliott, Dre with Truth Hurts, they have both been at the vanguard of this American movement which continues a pace in the clubs. By combining urban rhythms with Asian musical forms a whole new musical genre has been created. On Essential Asian Flavas British Asian producers have caught up and created a sound which finally brings Bhangra and the Asian Underground into the 21st century. This compilation celebrates this inventive new music by presenting you with the biggest cuts of the moment like the massive smash hit Panjabi MCs ëMundian To Bach Keí, as well as those tracks like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khanís hit from the film Bend it Like Beckham that have inspired the movement. What the press say: "Outcaste always seem to be one step ahead and here they've selected tunes representing a cross-section of styles, from bhangra through tripped-out dub.. all you need to know about modern Anglo-Asian club culture". (Straight No Chaser, Spring 2003) "This is a well-rounded set, they've (Outcaste) resisted the temptation to include endless Panjabi MC clones. A few of the tracks feature that bhangra meets hip-hop beat, but others are downtempo and trippy and there are some charming melodies lurking around too. Lots of evidence here that there's life in those Anglo-Asian beats yet". (FRoots, March 2003) "Of the recent glut of Asian compilations, this one seems most likely to achieve success, the reasonsbeing timing and crossover appeal". (Songlines, March/April 2003) "This is a sterling lesson in how to do fusion properly". (DJ, February 2003) "The buzz around Panjabi MC's single has prompted another fine compilation from Outcaste Records. Calles 'Asian Flavas' it features Panjabi MC's single alongside some fresh and funky music by the likes of Rishi Rich, Punjabi Outlawz and Trickbaby". (Time Out, Januaryy 15-22, 2003) "Here's a wonderful album, that, right at the beginning of the year reminds us of the real diversity of black music. Unless you've got cloth ears you'll know and understand the importance of Asian music to cutting edge US hip hop producers... dig in anywhere here and be prepared to be charmed and surprised". (Blues and Soul, 18 February 2003) "Subtitled 'Hits, Beats & New Grooves', this is the latest instalment from the ever-dependable Outcaste label, the first port of call for getting to grips with the bounties of the UK Asian music scene". (Bristol Venue, 31 January 2003) |

KARACHI – Three more bodies were recovered from different parts of the metropolis on Wednesday, while in another incident a PPP worker and a baker received critical gunshot wounds, police officials said.
According to the officials, both the victims were kidnapped before being killed. Their hands and legs were tied up with ropes and their bodies bore marks of severe torture. The bodies were shifted to the Civil Hospital Karachi, where one of the victims was identified as Shoaib Baloch, 28, son of Abdul Majeed, a tailor by profession. The officials added that Baloch was a resident of Chakiwara area of Lyari. They suspected that he might have been killed in the ongoing ethno-political violence. Further investigation is in progress.
Separately, a seven-year-old boy, Kabir Baloch, son of Raheem Baloch, was found dead near his residence in Daud Goth within the remit of the Saeedabad Police Station. The victim was kidnapped when he was playing outside his home, the officials said while adding that his captors took him to an undisclosed location, where they killed him. The body was moved to the CHK for autopsy. The officials said that Baloch's father was a labourer by profession.
Meanwhile, an activist of the Pakistan People's Party and a bakery worker were wounded in a shooting in Bangla Bazaar of Orangi Town within the jurisdiction of the Pakistan Bazaar Police Station. The injured activist was identified as Javed alias Bhatta and the baker as Kamran. According to the police officials, an armed clash between workers of the MQM and PPP over the establishment of stalls at a local market left the two men wounded. They were ferried to the Abbasi Shaheed Hospital, where they were stated to be out of danger.
Meanwhile, Maripur police claimed to have arrested an alleged gangster after a brief shootout near Hawkesbay Road. Syed Pathan was arrested along with a 7mm rifle, a repeater and a pistol. SHO Shafiq Tanoli said the accused belonged to the Jabbar Jhengu group of Lyari gangsters and was wanted in over 40 cases of killings. Further investigation is underway.

Archive for the 'communication' Category
Can you hear me now?
Communication. It's been on my mind of late and especially in the last couple of days. Due to a couple of friends' recent discovery and subsequent blogging about Twitter, I'd thought I'd chime in and ramble on a bit about it today.
Since the dawn of the internet and the ubiquitous chat-box, I've been fascinated by the ever-increasing facility of instant communication with just about anyone, anywhere, anytime.
I remember just how out of the world cool it was to type a sentence on my Mac and for it to appear – one letter at a time – on the screen of my friend's Mac instantaneously. And I won't even go into how jaw-droppingly awesome it was to use a modem for the first time.
Then there were the early days of AOL member chat, occasionally joining the "40-something" chat-room and actually carrying on a decent conversation with perfect strangers. That lasted only a short while before the chat-rooms became too crowded and the conversations declined to queries of one's mode of dress, or rather, un-dress, as it were.
The bulletin boards born of the BBS and VBBS systems in the nascent days of the internet were the place to go if chat rooms weren't your thing.
I dabbled in those only very briefly before finding the next generation of forums at the dawn of the century – one in particular that became the birthplace of my online persona of another name.
Then personal vanity websites evolved into web-logs which took about two seconds to be reduced to "blog." I eventually and serendipitously, along with now about 6,663,642,300 other people, found a small voice in the blog universe. Well, actually two of those voices are mine.
Along with blogs we now have the rapidly growing social-networking trend with MySpace, Facebook, Friendster, Linkdin, ad naseum. Internet popularity contests designed to trigger loads of anxiety in my inner, very insecure, high school self.
So all this has been swirling in my brain of late, triggered by the stream of Twitter tweets which punctuate my day. Twitter is an intriguing little communication tool that I haven't decided whether or not I like.
On the plus side, I can – and do – use it to notify the hive of twitterers that I have new blog posts ready for the enjoyment and edification, thus driving a stampede of one or two readers to my blog door.
Some "tweets" that trickle by are interesting. Another twittering friend has a habit of sending out obscure "tweets" that seem to come from some odd corner of his mind. They are always intriguing, if not perplexing. I engaged in a Twitter haiku round there for a while which was challenging and a bit fun …
… but, I find myself wondering – to what purpose? And, yet, I'm drawn to it like a magnet to the fridge. Here is a micro-world of people, myself included, mostly sending out spontaneous thoughts to the ether just 'cuz.
What drives the compulsion to share a thought – right now – with the universe? Are we entering an era of talking at rather than with? Are we already there?
And, intriguingly, why do I have nearly every portal open – IM, SMS, iPhone, e-mail, social-network accounts, you name it – and rarely walk through to say "hello…"
….with the exception of the blogs. And, perhaps now Twitter, which is hailed as micro-blogging, so that makes sense.
And why am I more comfortable spewing out my thoughts in a blog than tapping someone on their virtual shoulder and saying "You wanna do lunch?"
It may have something to do with lack of anonymity, shyness, fear of… whatever. I suppose that would be a few dollars spent for couch time and a brain dusting if I wanted to go that route.
Or I could point to another portal – the comments section of this blog – and invite you, dear reader, to offer your opinion.
So, I do.
Let's do lunch and discuss this communication thing. I think we have enough for a four-top.

Believe me, it was supposed to be a Classic Friday, featuring a boattail Auburn. Why not? And then, I came across this:
Meet the Tasco prototype, 1948. It was designed by Gordon Buehrig (of the Cord 810 fame). This unique car, donated by Richie Clyne, is preserved at the Auburn Cord Duesenberg museum, Auburn, Indiana.
The plaque reads:
A group of investors wanted to build a suitable American sports car for a European-type racing event to be held at Watkins Glen, New York. Gordon Buehrig was part of the group of investors, and also performed the design work. He oversaw the production of this single prototype vehicle.
The aluminum body was built by the Derham Body Company of Rosemont, Pennsylvania. It was the first car in the world with a T-top roof, an idea that Gordon Buehrig patented. He later sued General Motors for infringement when the 1968 Corvette came out with the T-top roof. The front fenders are made of fiberglass and the roof panels are plexi-glas. The name Tasco stands for The American Sports Car Company.
The Tasco is powered by a modified V-8 engine that produces 150 horsepower. The chassis is a highly modified 1947 Mercury. The original development and production cost for this car was $57,000. It was hoped that the production version would sell in the $7,500 range.
Virgil J. Exner, Jr., provided a valuable piece of information (with personal touch) on Dean's Garage:
Gordon Buehrig, Bob Bourke, my father, and Dale Cosper (a great design engineer at Studebaker who knew all about fiberglass) pooled their resorces in late 1945 to buy a junked 1939 Mercury at a local salvage yard in South Bend. The chassis was chopped and channeled and the engine moved back and lowered in our home garage in South Bend by all of them. My father and I designed and modeled the 1/4 scale clay in our basement in 1946. Meanwhile, Gordon hired Vince Gardner to design and do the 1/4 scale finished model that was to become the actual TASCO. Gordon then bought out the group's chassis and left Studebaker for Detroit. I was heartbroken as Gordon's daughter was my little girlfriend and Mom's best friend was Gordon's wife. The Tasco was built, but failed and Gordon joined Ford Design.
William F. Fitzgerald (coachbuilt.com) adds:
Buehrig was never satisfied with the design, which was done by a committee of investors rather than one designer. He considered the Tasco his personal Edsel. But, from this car came the design for a top, which became the removable T-top for Thunderbird and eventually Corvette.
And here are some outdoor shots of the Tasco, brought to us by conceptcarz.com:

« Warfield Theater - October 13, 1980Attendees of this show
When I look at all different set lists from the different GD eras, I think this is the show I would have liked to have been to the most. For you guys that were there, was it as good as it looks?
These were funny shows. I mean, the good news is that the Warfield is a small hall (especially compared to the hockey rinks and arenas the band had started to play) and the acoustic sets were a genuine treat. Even got to be an usher one night, although I can't remember exactly how that came about.
I think the bad news here (such as it is...) is that the hard-core deadheads (which at the time included me...) were trying to see every single show. (In spite of a lot of wacky passive-aggressive nonsense from the heads at the time: "Oh, you got in to tonight's show? I didn't get in -- I stood outside in the rain all night -- but I'm so happy that YOU were inside! If i had gotten a ticket, I would have given it to you.")
ANYWAY... the downside here (besides the challenge of actually trying to get in every night) is that the hard-core was waiting for magic every night, and my own opinion is that the Dead were looking more for the feeling of your local bar band -- you don't go every night; you drop in when you can for a relaxed time.
Because the theater is so nice, they were VERY strict on behavior -- no dancing in the aisles or seats. Bill Graham (bless his heart...) DID put up speakers in the hallways so we could dance AND hear, but that's always a funny choice -- there you are, standing in the light by the refreshment stand, dancing to the music coming out of some nice but tiny speakers while inside the real magic is taking place.
In addition they were making an album of this (Dead Set) and while it could certainly be my imagination, it sure FELT like they were working on a album -- the set list from night to night was very similar, and I couldn't help but feel when the umpteenth version of Terrapin or I Need A Miracle was played that it was basically, "OK, roll the tape -- take 7!"
On this, the last night of the Warfield run, the hardcore was expecting SERIOUS mojo (read: Dark Star or St. Stephen or...). One of the long-suffering tour-heads (Keith?) was wandering around with a handful of stickers from the old board game Cosmic Wimpout. "They better not wimpout tonight!" Sure enough, when the band started to play U.S. Blues he slowly started to peel the stickers off the roll and place them on the linen-covered walls before security grabbed him.
(I also seem to remember Bill Graham throwing two of the regular doseheads out of the show one night for fucking on the main staircase during the show! Luciano tried to stop him: "C'mon Bill -- he's fucked-up and he's just fucked!" but Bill was unswayed. "So? What am I supposed to do -- give them a medal?")
Even crazier, one or two people decided to skip this show entirely so they could start hitchhiking to New Orleans (two nights later) on the theory that it would be the first show the Dead had played in New Orleans since they were busted there years ago. ("Busted! Down in New Orleans! Set up...") and New Orleans would be THE show. (Skip a show so you can catch a show? Always a dubious strategy...)
One of my best memories of this run is how hard Bill Graham and company worked to make it special for everyone, including having a different message on the theater's marquee on most nights, so as you were walking out you would see something such as,
All this wrapped around my odd efforts to be an '80s hippie/street person, before realizing that while I still loved the shows and would continue to go until the end, the space-doggie lifestyle was just not for me.

As he stood by himself Saturday in front of the altar at St. George Catholic Church in Ontario, Vilchis recounted how his family was torn apart.
On a December morning, immigration services arrived to deport Yolanda Garcia - Vilchis' mother.
"I miss her so much," he said. "Today, I struggle because she's gone."
Vilchis was among 300 people who attended the latest stop on the "Family Unity" Immigration Outreach Tour at the Ontario church.
Spearheaded by Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-Ill., the tour is meant to show the effects of the nation's immigration policy.
Gutierrez, chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Immigration Task Force, urged attendees in Ontario to sign petitions asking for comprehensive immigration reform.
"Sign it for your mom, your dad, your sister," he said. "We're going to meet with President Barack Obama and we're going to hand him those petitions."
Gutierrez said he has already collected 6,000 signatures at stops in a handful of cities. The tour is scheduled to visit 17 cities.
"We will go from city to city, church to church and present the president with no other alternative than to listen to the majority's voice," Gutierrez said.
Rep. Joe Baca, D-San Bernardino - who hosted the event - said Saturday's turnout sends a strong message to Obama.
Jennifer and Whitney Serrano
The parents of the teenagers came to the United States about 18 years ago and received legal work permits about two years later. Since then, they have attempted to get their citizenship, said Jennifer, 16.
After the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, Jennifer said, her parents were denied their work permits. The Bloomington family now lives in fear of being deported.
"Every day I see them go to work and I hope they come back again," Jennifer said as she fought back tears.
Her sister, Whitney, 14, said she is also concerned about her parents, who have never been in trouble with the law.
"I'm very afraid that they will take away my life and all that I cherish," Whitney said.
While attendees listened to testimony inside the church, 10 members of the anti-illegal immigration group the Minutemen Project stood outside waving American flags.
Minutemen spokesman Raymond Herrera said immigration reform would only reward people who have broken the law.
"The American people will not tolerate this type of agenda," Herrera said.
Herrera said present law does not break up the family.
"Separation of family begins in Mexico. They abandon their family prior to living here," he said. "Here in America, we do not believe in separating family at all. They separated their family for money."
Also outside, Earl DeVres of Ontario passed out green cards to people entering the church. The cards read "Wait your turn" and "Don't take cuts."
"The law is the law," DeVres said. "It's not fair for people who have followed the proper process."
Luis Rojas, president of the Ontario Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, watched the situation unfold outside the church.
"This will just unite us," Rojas said. "They forget that we are all immigrants."
As Rojas spoke, Minutemen members chanted, "No amnesty. Deport the illegal aliens," and "Deportation."
Rojas said the scene was disheartening, but he will continue to support comprehensive immigration reform.
The meeting also provided faith-based leaders with an opportunity to put into context the moral issue of deportation laws, Gutierrez said.
"We believe in telling the human side of this issue," said John Andrews, spokesman for the San Bernardino Diocese. "Individual families that have been affected by immigration laws."
Just like other civil movements that were met with resistance, Gutierrez urged attendees to ignore the Minutemen and continue to fight for reform in a peaceful manner.
"The fundamental alliance was their church," Gutierrez said. "We too have a church, one that embraces and that will fight for immigrants."

"It's not one thing. It's everything. Take each piece and put it together," prosecutors said.
Prosecutors believe Johnson was romantically interested in Barnes and suggested he was jealous of time she spent with others. They relied heavily on the word of an inmate with a long record who said he saw Barnes' body when Johnson called him for help to dispose of it.
But defense lawyers said the state's own evidence of text and cellphone records shows in order for that witness to be believed, Johnson would have had to argue with Barnes, force her to have sex, deal with her crying and choke her to death. Then, call the witness, wait for him to arrive, consult with him and move her body in a blue storage bin -- all within a 38-minute window. But no phone record was presented to back up the witness's story.
"It doesn't make sense. It's not possible," defense lawyers said.
Defense lawyers argued that police zeroed in on Johnson to the exclusion of other possibilities and despite the work of four law enforcement agencies over the past two years, they argued the biggest answers are missing.
"Who, what when, how and why -- the state still has not answered," defense lawyers said.
A clear motive was not presented, defense lawyers said.
After three-and-a-half hours of closing arguments, the jury began deliberating around 4 p.m.
On Friday, Miller said the judge allowed the case to move forward but expressed "great concern" about the evidence the state presented last week.

Yosemite time-lapse:
Since I grew up in the foothills of Northern California, the scenery of the Sierra Nevada holds a special place in my memory. These beautiful time lapse sequences taken around Yosemite Park remind me of my visit as a teenager. Watching climbers on the cliff from Yosemite Valley, and seeing the stars wheel overhead at night both inspire awe, though for very different reasons. Also, checkout the air traffic over the valley in the night-time scenes. Vimeo link
Time-lapse dam removal:
This video revealed to me what a long process it is to restore a river to its natural state once a dam has been built. The Condit Dam on the White Salmon River in Washington state, built in 1913, was intentionally breached in 2011 to let the river flow unimpeded into the Columbia River a few miles downstream because building a new fish ladder system to allow spawning salmon to get around the dam was deemed too expensive.

Ice fishing?
There's something a bit odd about this ice fishing scene from Finland. Give it a minute, and I'm sure you'll figure it out. (Watching the air bubbles will give you a big clue.) Notwithstanding the trickery, this is a beautiful video of something I'm sure I'll never see in person. Vimeo link
Messy rocket car:
Fans of the diet cola + mint candy reaction will like this adaptation of the "technology." The rapidly expanding soda pushes rods out of the pipes against a backstop, and since the car pushes on the backstop, the backstop pushes on the car, and the car accelerates forward. This is not a very cost-effective way to get around, though. YouTube link

10Lindenwood University Student Group 'A Cross Between' Raises Concerns
10 Responses to Lindenwood University Student Group 'A Cross Between' Raises Concerns
This is sad that people are making up lies to bring down a good thing but i guess that is to be expected they hung jusus on the cross for nothing….
People are not making up things. if more than one person comes forward with different stories it is more likey to be true. It even happened to me. So shut up
I am a graduate alumni. I had very little interaction with any students who I knew to be ACB members. However, I was very aware of the atmosphere that was being created on campus. The student body's lack of acceptance for all students is disgraceful. Prior to attending Lindenwood, I attended Texas Christian University. While this university was religiously founded, and to this day houses a seminary, the environment created there was not one of naiveness, nor did the university attempt to suppress intelligent conversation.
Lindenwood has grown exponentially over the last few years, and with that has come growing pains i.e. the power outage in Roemer not long ago. With those more obvious growing pains comes the more subtle growing pains of how a more diverse student body is to be treated. If Lindenwood is going to ever receive donation money from this alumnus, it will need to illustrate a collegiate environment in which ALL students are allowed to organize themselves and engage in intelligent conversation about all issues that effect this country and the campus itself. A vocal minority that attempts to religiously sway a liberal art universities population one way or another is wrong, no matter if the university is a private or public one. Unless you are an explicit religious school i.e. BYU, Liberty University you have no business suppressing others viewpoints, nor suppressing the act of intelligent conversation amongst the student body.
All of my experiences with ACB @ LU have been amazing! Their love for others is so easy to see through their selflessness in serving others. Of course no one is perfect, but there's no doubt in my mind that they would drop everything to help me. Some times helping, means challenging. I've done some dumb stuff in my life and if it wasn't for Kerry Cox I don't kno where my life whould be. I'm not apart of ACB @ LU, but I sure would love to be! -
I am not a member oif acb or even a student at LU. However I am a youth minister and a friend of Kerry Cox and his family. I have known him for about ten years and in that time have seen nothing but passion for God and the students in his ministry. He does nothing but try to hold people to a biblical standardm
I'm a 44 year old woman and I devoted my life to Christ through the campus minstry at age 21. I was shown love, patience and support. I know this is the type of ministry ACB is trying to have. I know without a doubt that Kerry has a love for God and people. Some of the great events on Lindenwood's campus is because of ACB. Keep up the good work Kerry. Lindenwood students are blessed to have you on their campus.
The Legacy story was terrific! It was done in a professional manner which included an unbias information. Facts speak for themselves! The journalists did a super job relaying information to the public and to be factual. What I don't understand is how a person that flaunts such intimidation and control is allowed on campus at all. Pretty scary if you ask me. I would be very apprehensive to even be around Kerry.
Students from different walks of faith are not welcome. Yes, they are welcome to cross chats and the events held on campus. If you want to have lasting relationships with ACB you will have to change your views of religion to match theirs. Even the slight differences christian and catholics aren't tolerated. Also, Kerry is the campus minister of ACB and the Director of Student Life and Leadership. Long standing close ties is a huge understatement. He is conflicted and this needs to be addressed.
where did this whole article go??
This is LUTV's report. You can find the Legacy article here: http://lindenlink.com/news/accusations-arise-acb-crosses-the-line

Hotard: Decision by Krystal Forthan hard to figure out
October 09, 2012
On the first day of LSU women's basketball practice last year, blockbuster recruit Krystal Forthan sat behind a microphone answering questions for a room of reporters.
Forthan had signed with the Lady Tigers as the No. 5 prospect in the nation, joining Seimone Augustus, Sylvia Fowles and Allison Hightower among the most decorated signees in program history.
Answering questions that day, Forthan looked like she'd be the face of LSU women's basketball for seasons to come.
A year later, as the Lady Tigers once again opened practice Tuesday afternoon, Forthan and her shy smile were nowhere to be found.
LSU announced in May that Forthan had left the team, taking with her the 5.7 points and 3.1 rebounds she averaged as a freshman.
"I was very surprised," LSU coach Nikki Caldwell said. "But at the end of the day, we just want the best for her."
Even Forthan seems to be struggling with what may be best for her.
After leaving LSU, she transferred to West Virginia, where the athletic, 6-foot-4 forward was expected to sit out this season to satisfy NCAA transfer rules. But after only a couple of weeks at the Big 12 school, Forthan told her coach she was giving up basketball to focus on a professional modeling career.
Forthan has now popped up on the University of Utah roster, but her status with the Utes is unclear.
Utah spokesperson Brooke Frederickson said only that Forthan is expected to redshirt this season. She would not say whether she was enrolled at Utah or if she has practiced with the team.
"I know she's battled and been back and forth with what she wants to do," Caldwell said. "The only thing I can tell her is to commit to one thing and to stay with it. When you're non-committal, you let certain people or certain things come in and change your outlook."
Life on the move is nothing new for Forthan.
After averaging 15.1 points as a freshman at Grant High in her native Portland, Ore., she played the following season at Jefferson High across town. The summer before her junior year, she left home to live with her AAU coach in Georgetown, Texas, where the governing body of Texas high-school sports ruled her ineligible for one year.
Caldwell made it clear the Lady Tigers aren't looking back. She indicated the loss of Forthan has helped elevate the play of her erstwhile teammates and could ultimately make the Lady Tigers a stronger overall outfit.
But we'll always be left to wonder if Forthan could have matched the production of those great LSU recruits who came before her.
In the final game of the season last year, a 90-80 loss to Penn State in the second round of the NCAA tournament, Forthan scored 15 points and grabbed five rebounds in only 15 minutes of action.
That performance seemed like a harbinger of great things to come. Certainly not a swan song.

Getting Normalization Right: Dealing with 'Dimensional Constants' in Macroeconomics
Cantore, C (2011) Getting Normalization Right: Dealing with 'Dimensional Constants' in Macroeconomics Working Paper.
| PDF (licence) 32Kb | |

We contribute to a recent literature on the normalization, calibration and estimation of CES production functions. The problem arises because CES 'share' parameters are not in fact shares, but depend on underlying dimensions - they are 'dimensional constants' in other words. It follows that such parameters cannot be calibrated, nor estimated unless the choice of units is made explicit. We use an RBC model to demonstrate two equivalent solutions. The standard one expresses the production function in deviation form about some reference point, usually the steady state of the model. Our alternative, 're-parametrization', expresses dimensional constants in terms of a new dimensionless (share) parameter and all remaining dimensionless ones. We show that our 're-parametrization' method is equivalent and arguably more straightforward than the standard normalization in deviation form. We then examine a similar problem of dimensional constants for CES utility functions in a two-sector model and in a small open economy model; then re-parametrization is the only solution to the problem, showing that our approach is in fact more general.

And here they are^_^
The pictures of the two missing ponies from the first wave of Funko POP! vinyl figures, have surfaced!
Love them too and i prefer a lot this DJ P0n-3 than the SDCC one^_^'
Someone tell me something interesting.
Someone say something to me.
do you guys remember this cute video of a poodle walking on its hind legs?
well, in order for the puppy to learn this, its owner trained it by yelling, cursing, hitting, and throwing it. simply to gain internet fame.
video proof can be found here. warning: it is very hard to watch, but this puppy deserves justice.
if you'd like to act, here is a link to a petition
more people need to know the truth behind this "cute walking puppy"
Oh my fucking god SOMEONE READ THIS AND TELL ME I'M NOT BEING INSANE FOR FEELING REALLY REALLY BAD ABOUT THIS. AND TELL ME WHAT TO DO PLEASE COZ I'M SO LOST HOLY FUCK
I hear social justice bloggers talk about this shit all the time but like
This is happening to me;
Leave me a face in my ask and I'll tell you:
(◕‿◕✿) — My top 5 favorite bands/musicians
(。♥‿♥。) — If I have a crush
ლ(́◉◞౪◟◉‵ლ) — Something I've wanted for a long time
(ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ — What makes me happy
(✖╭╮✖) — What makes me sad
(。・_・。) — Something that is so horrible I wonder why it exists
(⊙_◎) — Something that drives me crazy
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻ — What angers me the most
I'm going to bed coz I have the early shift tomorrow. I really hope sleep cures this feeling. And I hope work distracts me from it. I don't want to be crying at work again. That was awful.
Leave me something to wake up to? (<- click)
So I need a roommate. I'm not joking either. I'm looking everywhere for one and I've exhausted my friends list now. Everyone is either held back by work or school or money. Or they're moving at a different time or to a different place.
Not only am I signing up for websites that are roommate finder websites, but I also wanted to post a PSA here.

A whore is a whore, and a john is a john, whatever you call it. (HT: Ray Sawhill)
"The sugar daddy and sugar baby relationship is far from prostitution," he said. "It's about a romantic relationship between two people. The only difference is a sugar daddy is very wealthy."
"If we're talking about money exchanged for sex, I don't see that this way. It's just not a 'wham, bam, thank you, ma'am,'" he said. "You pay somehow, somewhere for sex no matter what it is. You know, they say wives do it for refrigerators."
Yeah, buddy, but it's not a real 'romantic relationship', she's basically an escort no doubt offering the 'girlfriend experience', just so she can pay for her education (as all too many young women today will do, whether through outright prostitution, or stripping).
"[Tommy] taught me how to golf, cook, be a classy woman,"
Oh yeah? Classy women don't have tats like that, or sell sex, toots.

With the loss, Sacramento State concludes the season with a 3-24 overall record and a 1-13 mark in the Big Sky. Northern Arizona concludes the regular season with a 13-14 overall mark and a 6-8 conference record. The Lumberjacks will advance to next weekend's Big Sky Tournament as the No. 6 seed.
Northern Arizona took advantage of 30 Hornet turnovers and shot 46.8 percent (29-62) from the field. Despite being outrebounded, 50-29, Northern Arizona converted on three more field goals (29-26) and three more three-pointers (5-2).
Sacramento State could not overcome a poor start as Northern Arizona scored the first 17 points of the game. The Lumberjacks held the Hornets scoreless for the first 4:35 of the contest while converting each of their first seven shots of the half. Sacramento State, however, responded with a 17-6 run to slice NAU's lead to six (23-17) with 9:09 to play. The Hornets got to within four points on a Sarah Craig three-pointer (32-28) before the Lumberjacks closed the half on a 6-2 run to go into the break with a 38-30 lead.
The second half was played even throughout as Northern Arizona's largest lead was 14 points. The Hornets cut the lead to three (47-44) on a Danielle Iceman lay-up with 11:30 to go, but NAU scored six of the next eight points to lead, 53-46, with 8:53 to play. Northern Arizona's lead never shrunk below four points the rest of the way as the Lumberjacks settled for the 11-point victory.
Snitker's 22 points came on 11-of-18 shooting as she led four Lumberjacks in double figures including Lacey Tolbert (20 points and a team-high tying six steals), Lindsey Foster (15 points, eight assists and six steals) and Joy Dixon (12 points). The Lumberjacks finished with 18 assists as four different players finished with at least three.
Sacramento State was led by freshman Katelyn Ciampi as the center finished with career highs in both points (18) and rebounds (12). Ciampi went 8-of-12 from the field and tallied a game-high seven offensive rebounds. Joining Ciampi in double figures were freshman Sarah Craig (15 points), and juniors Sydney Gatson (13 points and a team-best five steals) and Danielle Iceman (11 points). Sophomore Kristine Knowlton added 11 rebounds and finished the season with a team-best five double-digit rebound games.
The Hornets finished the game shooting 38.8 percent (26-67) from the field, but could not overcome the 30 turnovers. Sacramento State's 14 steals marked its second-best output of the season as five different Hornets finished with at least two.
Craig finished the season as the Hornets' leading scorer (12.2 points per game) while Ciampi was the team's leading rebounder (6.4 per game). Junior Diane Peterson finished the year with 43 three-pointers, the seventh-best mark in Sacramento State single-season history while her 86 assists tied for the 10th-best mark. Knowlton finished the year with 51 blocked shots as she now holds the fifth-best mark (set last year with 57) and the sixth-best mark (51) in school single-season history.
The Hornets' 3-24 record was a three-game improvement over the previous season and the team's victory at Montana State last week was the first Big Sky win for Sacramento State since the 2000-01 season.
All six of Sacramento State's primary starters this season will return in 2003-04, including freshmen Craig and Ciampi, sophomore Knowlton, and juniors Gatson, Peterson and Iceman.

Clooney's Obama Fundraiser Brings in Nearly $15 Million
That total is believed to be the largest single event haul in campaign history.
| Posted Friday, May 11, 2012, at 9:46 AM
Photo by Saul Loeb/AFP/GettyImages.
UPDATE: The Obama campaign has remained mum on the exact dollar figure brought in during Thursday night's Hollywood fundraiser, but early reports suggest a number in the $14-$15 million range, a total that would make it the highest-grossing single-event campaign haul ever.
Sources tell both Politico and the Los Angeles Times that the event at George Clooney's house brought in at least $14 million, with the true number probably closer to $15 million. Tickets to the roughly 150-person event went for $40,000 a pop, which brings us to $6 million. The remainder was raised by an online raffle for tickets to the star-studded gala.
The LAT with the raffle details:
The Obama campaign held a contest for supporters across the nation, asking for donations of as little as $3 for a chance to win airfare to Los Angeles and a spot at the dinner. The contest proved wildly successful — tens of thousands of people contributed an average of $23, with their donations making up two-thirds of the $15-million haul. The winners were Beth Topinka, a science teacher from Manalapan, N.J., and Karen Blutcher, a utility company worker from St. Augustine, Fla. Both women brought their husbands.
Thursday, May 10: While President Obama's decision to publicly back gay marriage may yet cause him trouble in the polls, it doesn't appear to be hurting his campaign bank account in the slightest.
BuzzFeed reports that his reelection effort received $1 million in spontaneous contribution within 90 minutes of Wednesday's announcement. And the campaign cash is expected to keep rolling in Thursday evening, when President Obama attends what can safely be called a star-studded fundraising dinner in Los Angeles. The host? One George Timothy Clooney.
The Long Beach Press-Telegram reports that the 150-person guest list includes the likes of Barbra Streisand, Robert Downey Jr., and Tobey Maguire. With tickets reportedly going for $40,000 a pop, the conservative estimate of the total haul is $6 million. But some local organizers are speculating that once the money from an online raffle for seats at Obama and Clooney's table are counted, the night's fundraising total could be closer to $15 million.
While Team Obama likely won't release the exact total, the Hollywood Reporter predicts the event will likely break the previous one-night fundraising record, when a 2008 dinner at L.A.'s Greystone Mansion featuring a Streisand concert brought in $11 million.
Obama is also scheduled to hit up two fundraisers in Seattle before Clooney's event, one of which will feature a performance by Dave Matthews, according to Reuters. All proceeds are to go to the Obama campaign and the Democratic party.

Judge: IL must set money aside in pay dispute
The judge in a dispute over Illinois workers' pay raises is telling Governor Pat Quinn's administration to hand over unspent money from the state budget in case he rules in favor of the employees. Cook County Circuit Court Judge Richard Billik ordered a voucher for $18 million in unspent payroll money sent to the state comptroller. Millions more might also be involved. Yesterday's order came a day before the state's authority to earmark spending from the last budget expires. Quinn hasn't paid about $60 million in raises required by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees' 2011 contract because he says the Legislature didn't appropriate it. An arbitrator ruled in favor of the union but Quinn sued and Billik is deciding the case.

Kinder Morgan's proposal to twin its Trans Mountain oil sands pipeline from Alberta to Burnaby through Abbotsford just got a lot bigger.
The company announced Thursday that more demand from customers led to a 20 per cent increase in the proposed expansion capacity - to 890,000 barrels per day (bpd) from 750,000 bpd.
The cost of the project also rose to $5.4 billion from $4.3 billion.
"We continue to grow and this is a very exciting day for us and we think an exciting day for the industry and Canadians," said Kinder Morgan Canada president Ian Anderson in a conference call Thursday.
The original expansion project announced early in 2012 called for a doubling of capacity of the 60-yearold, 1,150-kilometre pipeline that runs from Edmonton to Burnaby to 600,000 bpd.
This quickly rose to 850,000 bpd but was later downgraded to 750,000 bpd.
The pipeline is becoming an issue locally as the oil transport company wants to expand its capacity by doubling its existing pipeline that traverses the Fraser Valley, including Sumas Mountain, Auguston, the McKee Road area and rural lowlands and urban areas in Abbotsford.
The issue of oil transportation gained local awareness in January when a Kinder Morgan storage container at the company's Sumas Mountain 'tank farm' failed and spilled 110,000 litres of oil into a catchment area.
Strong odours lingered through the day forcing Auguston Elementary to keep its students indoors, while several residents complained of headaches and nausea.
Anderson didn't want to speculate if the project could expand even further, particularly if Enbridge's Northern Gateway pipeline proposal was withdrawn down the road.
"We don't have any plans currently for any change in project scope," he said.
The increase announced Thursday was the result of firm customer commitments increasing from 508,000 bpd to 708,000 bpd.
"We are very pleased with the response from our customers," Anderson said.
In a press release, the company took the somewhat unusual step of listing the 13 companies that have signed long-term contracts for the expanded pipeline.
They include: BP Canada Energy Trading Company, Canadian Natural Resources, Canadian Oil Sands Limited, Cenovus Energy Inc., Devon Canada Corporation, Husky Energy Marketing Inc., Imperial Oil Limited, Nexen Marketing Inc., Statoil Canada Ltd., Suncor Energy Marketing Inc., Suncor Energy Products Partnership, Tesoro Refining & Marketing Company and Total E&P Canada Ltd.
Trans Mountain expects to file a facilities application with the National Energy Board (NEB) in late 2013, for authorization to build and operate the necessary facilities for the proposed expansion.
That application will include the environmental, socio-economic, Aboriginal engagement, landowner and public consultation and engineering components and initiate a comprehensive regulatory and public review process.
If approved, the project would be operational by 2017.
Opponents say the project will increase the risk of a tar sands oil spill that could affect local aquifers, and increase the number of supertankers coming in and out of Vancouver's Burrard Inlet, which could further risk ocean ecosystems and local businesses.
Sheila Muxlow with the Fraser Valley's anti-pipeline group PIPE UP said Thursday that the announcement spurred a renewed call out to those opposed to oil sands pipelines.
"This is all the more reason for us to be advancing our work and strategy to stop the building of this new tar sands pipeline," Muxlow said in an e-mail.

I'm beginning to believe that it will take me 40 years — at least — to truly learn wine, and since I've only been drinking wine seriously for about 20 years, I have some time left, and some serious work to do. The good thing about owning a wine store, though, is that part of my job is learning.
It may sound odd, but I know very little about wine. I've never referred to myself as a "somm"; I'm still not convinced that a $40 Chablis is better than a $14 Aligote; I love to drink a chilled bottle of zinfandel and as an apertif (and I remember when it used to be called red zinfandel, back when white zinfandel was still popular).
The truth is that I opened a wine store because I was a frustrated new parent that wanted so badly to buy a bottle of wine that I enjoyed drinking. I knew enough about wine to know there was something better out there than the Rosemont Shiraz being sold at the store on my corner. And whatever that something better was, I wanted it.
True to form, I decided to learn on the job — I opened a wine store in Long Island City on a dark and mostly desolate stretch of Jackson Avenue that I was convinced would one day be a great boulevard (it still hasn't quite made it). So you can only imagine my fear/irritation/surprise when an older man in spandex shorts and clip-on bike shoes came in one evening and began a barrage of questions about the inventory, who I was and what I was doing. I felt simultaneously put on the spot and ready to call the cops until he finally admitted that he was a wine importer and that he wanted to sell me some wine. A perfect, sweaty, uncomfortable introduction to Joe Dressner. (Not that Joe sold the wine — luckily he had young showered sales reps to do that.)
Apparently I was on Joe's route from work to home and he biked past the neon blinking VINE sign (thank you to Sean Krainik of redandwhitewines.com for pushing me to get it) enough times to want to check me out. For a while, Joe took to stopping in and chatting on his way home for a few minutes and he did in fact drag in one of his sales reps. And he didn't care how unlikely it was that I would ever sell more than a case of his Rucche. His book is full of quirky wines that are often very difficult to sell. But the reason you buy his wines is that you like them because they're full of life. It's like the difference between eggs from a farmer's market and eggs at C Town. Joe liked what I was doing. And I knew I'd met a kindred spirit who cared more about your expression as you tasted a wine than what you said about it.
I could tell myriad of other Joe stories, including the time when I showed up at a Louis/Dressner tasting with my then-4-year-old (who had been bribed with a My Little Pony castle to come with me). I had forgotten to RSVP and was very nearly turned away because I didn't have a business card, until Joe swooped in and, with his most welcoming side, showed me in and right to a bottle of red that he liked — and that I liked too. (Meanwhile, my daughter played happily in the corner of the room for the next hour while I power tasted.) Months later, Joe and I had a very public accidental-on-purpose falling out and I stopped carrying his wines for years. When I moved the store to Brooklyn, however, I called him. We talked about the ridiculousness of it all and his much-missed wines made their way back into Vine.
What makes me saddest when I think about Joe's passing is that he knew everything about wine, but more importantly he loved wine. And in a weird way, there are moments when I taste a Dressner wine and I get the feeling that I'm understanding it — and loving it — in the same way that Joe tasted and understood and loved wine. It's not because of vast knowledge or experience — it's because the wine is delicious in the glass. You can ascribe any of the words that people love — natural, biodynamic, etc. — to why those wines are so good; the real reason is that they are damn good to drink. Joe, wherever you ended up, I hope the wine is delicious and inspiring. Thank you for believing in me and my tiny shop in LIC.
2 Responses to Joe Dressner
[...] What makes me sad when I think to move from Joe is that he knew all about wine, but mostly he liked the wine. And in a strange manner, there are times when I tasted a wine Dressner and I feel that I have to understand – and love – the same way that Joe tasted and understood and loved the wine. It is not because of extensive knowledge and experience – because the wine is delicious in the glass . You can assign one of the words that people like – natural, biodynamic, etc. – why these wines are so good, the real reason is that they are damn good drink. Joe, where you finally, I hope the wine is delicious and inspiring. Thank you for believing in me and my little shop in the PFR. wine grapes | 616 Lorimer Street | Brooklyn, NY [...]
