That covetable model-off-duty style? We all want it, and Erin Wasson has it in spades. And with an intimate knowledge of great fashion - she's strutted on catwalks from Armani to Chanel and styled Alexander Wang's runway shows for two seasons - her Low Luv jewelry is gracing the same glossies she's graced as a model. Unsurprisingly, Wasson's signature low-key yet edgy personal style is channeled into collections that are chock-full of attitude and anything but typical.

About another ring
Does anyone know about the ring on the ring finger (right hand) on the picture who the lady wears a black top / dresses? Hviken brands are there? Where can I get one because I like it very much. Thanks in advance!
Kind regards.

Not for small wrists
Thought this looked really cool and was happy with the overall quality when it arrived. Unfortunately if you're like me and have small wrists, this bracelet is not adjustable, hung too low and could've easily slipped off so it had to go back.
Sizing: Larger than Expected

I love this "watch", perfect to finish an outfit.
It makes a perfect statement to any outfit and is super cool... Love it and wouldn't trade it for anything else. This will be in my wardrobe for years and decades!

Post subject: Regarding asking questions and honest discussions
For those of you who think I'm not serious about people being ridiculed for asking questions, exhibit A, a
little ad from the DNC:
Enough of the Mob
This is how open discussions are
under the Obama's administration of Hope and Change? Even ignoring the spin that's in all political ads, someone please tell me what's "mob-ish" about a single individual asking a question at a townhall meeting? Or even people gathering to protest anything in America for that matter?
I just now ran across a post about about the video I referenced above entitled
Mobs of old ladies?
. What's interesting is that it's on a site of Hillary Clinton supporters. One I read every day and quite enjoy.

Post subject:
When it comes to honest discussions about politics or religion, most people seem to lose their ability for rational discourse. If something they read agrees with what they believe they leap on it wholeheartedly. If someone disagrees using an irrational argument that's almost better, because they keep those and tell others that it is the best the opposition can come up with. If on the other hand someone disagrees
using a rational argument
they ignore it and resort to personal attacks.
Just because someone disagrees with you it doesn't mean they are stupid, condescending, or a know-it-all. It just means they disagree. Nobody is right %100 of the time (except maybe me
, which means that eventually someone will probably disagree with you on something you hold dear, and they will be right. All of this means that if you are interested in being right, or informed, you must
to what others say, and listen even closer if it is disagreeing with your opinions.
I won't pretend this comes easy, I have often been guilty of doing exactly what I am preaching against. But that doesn't mean I will give up trying to be rational about
things, even those things I want to like.
I think ideas and viewpoints should be approached with a scientific method as much as possible (opinion is a large part of ideas, therefore the process can never be totally scientific). I really like the way Willis Eschenbach puts it in his article Tropical Tropospheric Amplification an invitation to review this new paper:
Here is the way he describes the scientific method:
"People think science is a cooperative endeavor. It is not. It is a war of ideas. An idea is put out, and scientists gather round to attack it and disprove it. Sometimes, other scientists may support and defend it. The more fierce the attack, the better because if it can withstand the strongest attack, it is more likely true. When your worst scientific enemies and greatest disbelievers cant show that you are wrong, your ideas are taken as scientific fact. (Until your ideas in turn are perhaps overthrown). Science is a blood sport, but all of the attack and parry is historically done in private. I propose to bring it out in public, and I offer my contribution below as the first victim."
"Second, I will insist on a friendly, appreciative attitude towards the contributions of others. We are interested in working together to advance our primitive knowledge of how the climate works. We are doing that by trying to tear my ideas down, to disprove them, to find errors in them. To make this work we must do this with respect for the people involved and the ideas they put forwards. You dont have to smash the guy to smash the idea, in fact it reduces your odds."
If you treat all your ideas this way, you will at the very least be well informed regarding the opposition, and I think most people will end up changing at least one of their opinions, if not many.
Obama's administration sure doesn't seem to support such an introspective way of thinking if it applies to Obama and he has to account for all his Obamalies.

In short, the truth wins out eventually. So true. Sometimes it takes a while to get there, but if it stands the test of time, it can't be knocked down. One of my favorite quotes from Winston Churchill (and I have many of his) is as follows: "Truth is incontrovertible--ignorance may deride it, panic may resent it, malice may distort it, but there it is."

Purpose of this page
The purpose of this page is to
- Describe the bits and pieces of the X11 selections and OS X pasteboard as they currently function SEPARATELY on OS X Leopard
- Describe how they CURRENTLY INTERACT on OS X Leopard
- Propose better FUTURE INTERACTION
Current implementation
For entirely boring technical reasons, the proxying of clipboard contents is mostly (entirely?) handled inside the closed-source quartz-wm. However, the code that actually performs that functionality is not sensitive, so it's been posted here: XDarwin_Clipboard_Code. It would be nice to eventually integrate this into Xquartz itself. Until then, the code is there as a reference to help with understanding / interpreting / fixing the current behavior.
Separate, and not equal, clipboards
Note: It's NOT YET been generally agreed to that all these points below are correct, or that all the points that ought to be there are there - Nathan
- On OS X "pasteboard" is an intermediate place. When you copy something, it gets copied to this intermediate place. When you paste something, it's copied out of that intermediate place. As stated by Ben Byer, "...when you copy something [in Cocoa], it copies all of that data to the NSPasteboard, and when you paste, it just pulls the data from the NSPasteboard"
The X11 clipboard paradigm is very different see http://www.jwz.org/doc/x-cut-and-paste.html
- The X11 does not have an intermediate place that stuff gets copied to like the one in OS X
X11 has multiple selections. At any one time, any selection has at most one owner (an X11 client). Only the owner of the selection knows its contents.
X11's primary selection is a pointer to some stuff, usually set by highlighting some text. The owner will be the client whose window the text is highlighted in.
When the X11 primary selection is asked to be "pasted," usually by pressing the middle mouse button, the owner of the primary selection is requested to provide a copy of the selection. The resulting string is then copied directly to the insertion point (no intermediate clipboard place!)
X11's clipboard selection works similarly. It usually set by selecting "copy" in some menu. The client will typically take a copy of its current selection and store it away, in order to provide it when requested in the future.
When the X11 clipboard selection is asked to be "pasted," usually by selecting "paste" in some menu, the clipboard selection owner is requested to provide the contents which is then copied directly to the insertion point (no intermediate clipboard place!)
Current interaction between clipboards
Note: It's NOT YET been generally agreed to that all these points below are correct, or that all the points that ought to be there are there - Nathan
- Copy in OS X, switch to X11...
when X11 gains focus: The X11 primary and clipboard selections are acquired by the OS X pasteboard, unless the pasteboard was last changed by quartz-wm itself. More precisely, quartz-wm, which is also an X11 client, claims ownership of both selections. Henceforth, whenever quartz-wm is asked to provide the contents of either selection, it returns the current contents of the pasteboard, not necessarely as it was at the time of the focus shift. (Note that the pasteboard may change even if X11 retains focus, though this rarely happens in practical use.)
paste primary selection: Pastes what the X11 primary selection points to (the OS X pasteboard if no other X11 client has claimed ownership since X11 gained focus)
paste clipboard selection: Pastes what the X11 clipboard selection points to (the OS X pasteboard if no other X11 client has claimed ownership since X11 gained focus)
- Switch from X11 to another OS X application ...
- If the user has never selected Copy from the X11 menu, and if an X11 client other than quartz-wm owns the clipboard selection, the clipboard selection is copied to the pasteboard. If the user has ever selected Copy from the X11 menu, this automatic copying of the clipboard will never again happen while the current X11 session is running.
- User selects Copy in X11 ...
- quartz-wm requests the current primary selection, if owned by a client other than itself, and copies it to the pasteboard. At the same time, it claims ownership of the clipboard selection.
Harald pretty much doubts the statements below. In fact, he is unable to reproduce the claims.
Create primary selection in X11, switch to OS X...
when OS X gains focus: Its clipboard is unchanged from before a "primary selection" was made.
paste: The clipboard is pasted.
Create clipboard selection in X11, switch to OS X...
when OS X gains focus: The clipboard contains a "promise to copy" from X11
paste: Whatever is selected in X11 at the moment of pasting is pasted. This may be different from what was selected at the moment of COPYing, and this is the most contentious behavior about which people complain.
- Thus, if nothing is selected in X11, nothing is pasted
- If something new is selected in X11, the new thing is pasted
Switch back to X11: Now, the evaluated promise is copied into X11's clipboard, but the primary selection remains selected.
Proposed future interaction between clipboards
Adam's proposal
- No change to Cocoa behavior
- When command-C or the "copy" command from menu is issued within X11:
- the contents of the X11 clipboard are immediately copied in whole to the Cocoa pasteboard; no promise involved.
- If the X11 primary selection and clipboard differ, the primary selection is copied to the X11 clipboard and then to the Cocoa pasteboard
Nathan's first shot at a proposal
Note that this assumes that X11 can detect gaining/losing focus and can set either selection pointer to point to the OS X pasteboard and that both the OS X pasteboard and X11 selections can keep track of events that have happened since the last gain/loss of X11's focus- Nathan
- Copy in OS X, switch to X11...
when X11 gains focus: Both the primary and clipboard selections are set to point to OS X's pasteboard iff the OS X pasteboard obtained new content since X11 last lost focus.
paste primary selection: primary selection is pasted
paste clipboard selection: clipboard selection is pasted
Create primary selection in X11, switch to OS X...
when OS X gains focus: primary selection is copied into OS X pasteboard iff the primary selection has been set since the last time X11 gained focus AND the primary selection is the latest selection to be set.
paste: OS X pasteboard content is pasted
Create clipboard selection in X11, switch to OS X...
when OS X gains focus: clipboard selection is copied into OS X pasteboard iff the clipboard selection has been set since the last time X11 gained focus AND the clipboard selection is the latest selection to be set.
paste: OS X pasteboard content is pasted
Nicholas's proposal
Create primary selection: Examine current pasteboard contents to determine if it was created by a X11 primary selection. If current pasteboard contents were not created by an X primary selection, save the current pasteboard contents in memory. Write X11 primary selection to OS X pasteboard with custom flavor to indicate presence of primary selection.
Remove primary selection (deselect): Restore saved pasteboard contents.
Choose Copy from Edit menu: Remove "this is a primary selection" flavor if present. (This ensures the primary selection persists in the Mac pasteboard; it may be necessary to deselect to get it to paste, but it won't be lost.)
Create clipboard selection: Write X11 clipboard selection to OS X pasteboard with custom flavor to indicate presence of clipboard selection.
Paste primary selection: If no X11 primary selection, use OS X pasteboard contents.
Paste clipboard selection: If OS X pasteboard does not contain a custom flavor written by X11, use OS X pasteboard, otherwise use X11 clipboard selection.
Reasons why the other proposals don't work for me:
- It should be possible to copy the primary selection to a Mac app without having to select from a menu; "enable key equivalents under X11" is not compatible with the apps I use (primarily Emacs).
- Only bridging the clipboard on a focus switch ignores several use cases.
- People (like me!) use utilities like Synergy and teleport so they can control multiple Macs with a single keyboard and mouse. Your mouse can be on another machine without X11 ever losing focus and I often want to paste there.
- Apple's Screen Sharing and Remote Desktop have similar clipboard-bridging features.
- Various utilities (which I don't use) support a "clipboard history". If X11 never updates the system pasteboard, this history will not be updated either (however with the primary selection being updated, it may create a lot of updates).

The proposed project includes the subdivision of the approximately 119-acre site into 89 single-family lots and nine common area lots, the construction of internal roadways with two access points onto Olive Ranch Road, and infrastructure to connect to water delivery and sanitary sewer systems. The existing zoning designation is RS-AG-B100-PD-0.83 (Residential Single-Family, Combining Agricultural, Combining Minimum Building Site of 100,000 square feet, Combining Planned Development). The applicant is requesting a rezone that would remove the Agriculture, Building Site, and Planned Residential Development combining districts, and would add the Density Limitation combining district to the existing RS zone district. The proposed project is located on 119.4 acres north of Olive Ranch Road, 0.25 miles east of Cavitt-Stallman Road, in Granite Bay, Placer County (APN 046-090-012).

Thinking of changing my boards around....I personally think I need to go up a size for the extra volume as I've always been around the 32l-33l and thats been ok but I think I could benefit from the extra increase for a few reasons....
Rubbish weak wind swell 90% of the time, Lazy when it comes to fitness, Long flat spells, Stiff back!
There has always been two different sizes of boards suited to me i.e. 5'10 to 6'0 Spitfire and I have always gone with the smaller sizes
Heres my idea for two great boards....
6'0 Spitfire for waist high to overhead
5'5 Baked Potato for knee high plus (Anyone know when these are hitting the uk?)
Previous boards i've had are Spit, Dom and my current boards, got to say the Spit was the best alrounder for me, a good one board quiver I had for a couple of years. I like the ELF but the jump in 10% volume seems to much and I think the Spit would be a better alrounder for holidays and really good days
So has anyone got any advice for me on this, would be greatly appreciated??

INDEPENDENCE — If center Micheal Eric earns a spot on the Cavaliers' final roster, it will be purely for his down-road potential.
It certainly wasn't for his stats, or lack thereof. In two preseason games, he has one rebound, one personal foul and two turnovers to his credit in seven minutes of action.
He does have one redeeming quality.
"He's darn near 7-feet," Cavs coach Byron Scott said. "That's always a plus. You've got to like that size."
But can he play?
The Cavs are expected to trim three players off their roster on Saturday. Eric is worried that he could be one of the cuts.
"It challenges you to work harder and be the best you can," Eric said. "I have a lot to work on. To make the team, you never know."
The former Temple Owl could be headed to the D-League Canton Charge, who have the right of first refusal on the last three players cut by the Cavs. That's assuming those players want to play in the D-League.
If the Charge decide not to sign any or all three, they would be eligible for the D-League draft.
Eric would have no problem playing in the D-League.
"I'll do whatever I can to make myself better and be part of the NBA," he said.
Scott said Eric has taken a step back since showing much promise at the Las Vegas summer league.
"His knee started to bother him," Scott said. "He's still long and athletic. I still think he can be a presence in the post. His post defense has gotten better.
"I'd like if he was a better off-the-ball defender where he comes across and blocks shots. He's done a decent job rebounding his position. On some days in practice, he takes a big step forward and on others, he takes a step back."
Eric, a native of Nigeria, said he's trying to emulate what Anderson Varejao does on the court.
"I'm a big body who can run the floor," he said. "I think I'm as athletic enough to play in this league. They see similarities in the big fella, Andy. I don't give up on plays.
"I'm not going to let a guy take advantage of me because he's more skilled or bigger than me. I'm learning from a guy like Andy."
He said he has to quit thinking so much on the floor.
"I have to let my instincts take over," Eric said. "I've been thinking too much, trying to remember plays. It slows you down.
"It's a matter of having a feel for the game naturally. I'm getting there as the weeks go by. Coach Scott and the front office people have given me a tremendous opportunity."
The Cavs signed him to a three-year, non-guaranteed contract. If he makes the team, he'll make $500,000 this year.
"There's little security in life," Eric said. "You have to keep going after it. In this situation, it's a chance for them to teach me the game of basketball. I'm sponging it up."
He said he's been playing organized basketball for seven years — the last five at Temple.
"There are a lot of opportunities being thrown at me," he said.
Player cuts
Power forward Kevin Jones, shooting guard D'Aundray Brown and Eric are expected to be the three players waived on Saturday. All three could be headed to the D-League.
Scott has been trying to find a way to keep both backup point guards, Jeremy Pargo and Donald Sloan.
One other player on the bubble, power forward Luke Harangody, appears to be safe.
Scott knows what he's going to do, but would not divulge what it was.
"I'm happy with the decision that I've made," Scott said. "It gives us more balance."
The coach said he plans on utilizing a nine- or 10-man rotation. "I can look down the bench and have some options," Scott said.
Quick shots
• Scott said rookie shooting guard Dion Waiters had his best day of practice on Friday. He hopes that carries over to the home opener on Tuesday against Washington.
• Point guard Kyrie Irving remained out of practice as he recovers from having his wisdom teeth pulled on Wednesday. He's still listed as day-to-day. "I am concerned," Scott said. "We'll have to wait and see how he feels."
• Scott said he thinks the Cavs have enough 3-point shooting with Irving, Daniel Gibson and C.J. Miles. "(They) can make 3s on a consistent basis," Scott said. "(Last year) was one of Boobie's worst years since he's been in the league. He's been excellent the last week of practice."

Green Bay and Fond du Lac part of proposed expansion of school voucher program
By: Millaine Wells
Updated: February 18, 2013
GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) - On Wednesday Governor Scott Walker will introduce his state budget.
Today Local 5 got a look at part of it.
The governor unveiled his plan to expand the controversial school voucher program.
For years, the voucher program operated only in Milwaukee. In fact, it was the first city in the United States to have a voucher program.
Last year the city of Milwaukee issued 24,000 vouchers to qualified families.
Two years ago, Governor Walker expanded the program to the Milwaukee County suburbs and Racine.
Now Green Bay, Fond du Lac and seven other communities could be added in the proposed expansion.
"By singling out Green Bay as a failing school district we are placing a black mark on our community" says Michelle Langenfeld, Green Bay Superintendent of Schools.
The Green Bay Public School District says it is strongly opposed to vouchers.
"As we siphon off resources with already limited resources we start to drain the vibrancy of a system" says Langenfeld.
The proposal gives eligible parents a state-funded voucher of more than seven thousand dollars towards private tuition.
"What is going to happen is the district will get less state aid, and that will lead to higher taxes for the taxpayer" explains Alan Wagner, Chief Financial Officer for Green Bay Schools.
The voucher program would be expanded to districts with over 4,000 students.
At least two buildings must have grades of "D" or "F" in the state report cards.
Last year Green Bay received 14 "D" grades and four "F" grades.
"Schools that did not have 95% percent participation in reading and math received deductions" says Langenfeld.
Green Bay takes issue with the grading system and believes by having all students, even those with limited English take the test, scores will improve dramatically.
Private schools say their standards are just as high.
"Any school that wants to participate in the voucher program would have to abide by that criteria. Accreditation standards, certain assessments necessary" says Dr. Joe Bound, Director of Education, Green Bay Catholic Diocese.
The voucher program is available only to students whose families earn less than 300 percent of the federal poverty rate, or $69,801 for a family of four.
"What it does is gives them the power to choose in a more open playing field" says Bound.
The proposal is not a slam dunk for Governor Walker, even with a 18-15 majority in the senate.
At least two republicans have spoken out against the plan.
"The taxpayers in Green Bay deserve an open and public discussion on this, not just a line item in the budget" says Brenda Warren, Green Bay School Board President.
Under Governor Walker's proposal, enrollment would be capped at 500 students statewide starting in the 2014 fiscal year and 1,000 students the next year.

Manual and Vacuum Aspiration for Abortion
How Well It Works
First-trimester surgical abortions are safe and effective and have few complications.
In rare cases, an aspiration procedure doesn't successfully end a pregnancy. This is more likely to happen during the earliest weeks of a pregnancy.

Cat opening new facility in Georgia
Caterpillar Inc. announced on Feb. 17 it has selected land near Athens, Georgia, as the location for a new facility that will build small track- type tractors and mini hydraulic excavators.
The state-of-the-art, one-million-square-foot- facility is expected to directly employ 1,400 people once it is fully operational. The total investment for opening the new facility will be about $200 million. In addition to the 1,400 people working in the new facility near Athens, Caterpillar estimates another 2,800 full-time jobs will be created in the United States among suppliers and at other non-Caterpillar companies that will support the new facility.
Company leaders and officials from the state of Georgia and the Athens area announced the decision today at a news conference held at the Georgia state capitol in Atlanta.
"We are making a series of significant investments around the world to position Caterpillar to maintain its leadership position, and I am thrilled to be in Georgia on Feb.17 to announce that Athens will be the newest city to be home to a Caterpillar production facility. We are even more excited that this project will create more than 4,200 jobs in the United States," said Caterpillar Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Doug Oberhelman.
"Georgia is proud to have built a business climate that provides the logistics, workforce, speed and efficiency that global industry leaders like Caterpillar are looking for," said Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal in a press release. "We appreciate Caterpillar's continued investment in our state, and this new operation will resonate in our workforce and our economy for generations to come."
In late 2011, as part of a strategic decision to move production closer to the majority of customers who use small track-type tractors and mini hydraulic excavators, Caterpillar announced plans to open a new manufacturing facility in North America. The new facility will be part of Caterpillar's Building Construction Products (BCP) Division, which is based in Cary, North Carolina.
"The decision to shift production from Japan to the United States is driven by the proximity to a large base of customers in North America and Europe. Our objective is to better serve those customers from this new factory," said BCP Vice President Mary Bell. "The Athens site was selected from among dozens of locations considered due to its proximity to the major ports of Savannah and Charleston, a strong regional base of potential suppliers, a positive and pro-active business climate and a good pool of potential employees with manufacturing experience," Bell added.
"We are thrilled to welcome Caterpillar as our newest corporate citizen and look forward to the opportunity to partner with them in their success," said Athens-Clarke Mayor Nancy Denson. "Our two counties joined forces to support this project because of its vast potential to create job opportunities and revitalize our local manufacturing industry."

It was on a Christmas Eve when it happened, my regular partner was off that night, and the captain gave me a partner whom we all called Bookie. As some of the older police remember, Bookie smoked cigars. He kept one in his mouth about all the time. There is nothing quite as bad as a wet cigar in a closed car.
It was Christmas Eve, and everything was quiet. Most people were at home setting up Christmas for their little ones. Everything had closed at midnight, so when I first came on, I had gone by Krystal and picked up a couple of sandwiches. I had about all the wet cigar smoke I could take. I went up to the Civic Center where I was going to eat my sandwiches.
I made the turn on the lot from the road, and as I did I saw a movement in one of the windows. I gave the car the gas and drove up to where you go beside the building on the duck pond side. I jumped from the car and began to check the windows and the door. All was secure, and I went back to the car.
Bookie sat in the car puffing on the wet cigar. Bookie knew my name but never called me Lonie, it was always Lonzo.
"What you looking for Lonzo?" he asked.
"Santa Claus," I replied.
I made another round checking the windows and doors again. I couldn't find anything out of order so I went back to the car. I reached in and got my sandwiches from the seat and placed them on the hood. I started to eat, never taking my eyes off of the Civic Center. Bookie sat in the car puffing on his wet cigar.
I was looking at the window on the end of the building when I saw it again. I didn't say anything but walked over and looked into the building. Nothing moved, but I knew that I had seen someone or something move. I walked back over to the car and opened the door to get in and started to sit down but changed my mind. I reached and got the microphone.
I remember the conversation as if was yesterday.
"Car two to headquarters" I said.
"Go ahead car two" the dispatcher said.
"Headquarters call the city custodian and tell him to bring the keys to the Civic Center," I requested.
A slight hesitation then, "you know this is Christmas Eve?" I was beginning to get a little irritated with the radio and Bookie's wet cigar.
I remember with the irritation showing, I said "life goes on, tell Paul to get over here as soon as possible."
Car one, having no calls, pulled on to the lot. I went over to the car and told them what I had seen. They pulled to the end where they could see half of the Civic Center. I picked up my cold sandwich and coffee. I ate and drank coffee, smelling Bookies' wet cigar.
It seemed that Paul would never get there, but finally I saw his headlight as he came off of the road on the lot. I motioned for the officers in the other car to come with me to help search the building. I went through the door with the others behind me. We searched every corner of the building even looking in the refrigerator.
Nothing seemed to be out of place and no one could be found. The room had been set up for a party the next day. A Christmas tree was sitting in the front of the fireplace. Gifts were scattered around the tree. Sitting in the fire place was a bag of gifts. The bag looked out of place. The other officers had gone back to their car leaving Paul and I alone. That is all except Bookie with his wet cigar.
I started to go toward the door to leave when a thought came to me. I motion for Paul to wait.
"Bookie," I said pointing to the fire place.
A surprised look came on Bookie's face. He laid his cigar on a table and with his gun in hand we approached the fire place. I stepped to the side and pulled the sack from the fire place. Nothing was in the fireplace, it was empty. I remember that a thought came to me.
"Hey Paul," I said "is it okay if I shoot up this fireplace to make sure that no one is hiding in it?"
"Fire away," he yelled loud enough for everyone to hear.
A faint voice came from the fireplace, "don't shoot mister, I am coming down."
"Come out showing me empty hands!" I ordered.
I watched as a pair of shoes came into view, but I could not believe my eyes when the rest of him slid from the chimney. I will try to give you a description.
First, a pair of shoes that looked to be about 14 in size came into sight. Then, the shoes came sliding from inside the fireplace with the longest body attached to them that I have ever seen. He had to be over six feet tall and weighing less than one hundred pounds. I wanted to laugh but knew this was no laughing matter. He had soot all over him and with his hand sticking up in the air was the funniest sight I remember seeing.
"Face me," I said, "with your hands held high!" Bookie took his cuffs and put them on him. We led him out to the car and placed him in the back seat. In those days there were no cages in the car; when someone was placed in the back seat, someone got in with them.
Bookie started to get in then got out hollering at Paul. "Don't lock the door. I got to get my cigar!" He went back into the Civic Center and retrieved his wet cigar stub.
This fellow went by the name of Suge and in later years had half of the police department chasing him for burglary. He did time for the Civic Center burglary but came out and started up again. I always wondered if he thought he could get the big garbage bag up the chimney. The bag weighed as much as he did, if not more.
I know that old Santa Claus can carry a big bag of toys down the chimney, but I would just bet that a six foot fellow weighing less than a hundred pounds could not make it up the chimney with a bag of toys as big as Suge had.
Lonie Adcock of Rome is a retired Rome Police Department lieutenant. His latest book, "Memories of an Old Geezer," is now available.

Mark Ruffalo Goes Green for The Common Good
Waiting in the lobby of the Midtown East home of the interior designer wet dream penthouse apartment of John and Andrea Stark, we heard the bellhop turn to one of our companions waiting in line for the elevator.
"You're the Hulk, aren't you??!" The young man asked feverishly, as if hoping that the actor in our midst would suddenly turn green and start screaming in nouns and verbs.
"Yes, Mark Ruffalo, nice to meet you," he said. The elevator doors opened, and the anti-hydrofracking advocate attempted to enter, as we were already running a little late to an event for The Common Good, Patricia Duff's non-profit public advocacy group.
The bellhop stepped in front of the open door, barring entrance. "Hey, can I get a picture?" He asked, breaking really the only rule of being a good hotel employee.
The door almost dinged shut, but we grabbed it with our hands. Mr. Ruffalo looked slightly pained, but put on his game face. "Sure!" he said, while one of his people snapped a picture.
"Okay, up we go! Can't keep the ladies waiting!" The Hulk took a dapper step into the elevator and winked at us. Read More

This is my best yet. :)
Ninjask (M) @ Focus Sash Trait: Speed Boost EVs: 252 HP, 4 Atk, 252 Spe Jolly Nature Swords Dance Protect Baton Pass X-Scissor
Even though this guys in a lower Tier (I think), I use this for the ultimate Baton Pass to Kyurem-Black. He'll use Protect for an extra Speed Boost, and when the opponent tries to hit 'im next turn, he hangs on and uses Swords Dance. Then he Baton Passes to Kyurem-Black for ultimate sweeping.
Kyurem-Black (X) @ Choice Band Trait: Teravolt EVs: 4 HP, 252 Atk, 252 Spe Adamant Nature Outrage Zen Headbutt Fusion Bolt Dragon Tail
Like I said before, after Ninjask's strategy is complete, this guy's the ultimate physical sweeper. Dragon Tail is for the annoying phaze, Outrage is for complete pwnage agains almost everything except Heatran, Zen Headbutt is for coverage, and Fusion Bolt is for more. Noone can survive!
Espeon (F) @ Focus Sash Trait: Magic Bounce EVs: 4 HP, 252 SpAtk, 252 Spe Timid Nature Shadow Ball Psychic Substitute Calm Mind
This one's my special sweeper. Once a Substitute's up, she'll Calm Mind until she either can't or the Substitute fades, then sweeps. Psychic is a strong STAB, and Shadow Ball is for coverage.
Hydreigon (M) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Levitate EVs: 4 HP, 252 SpAtk, 252 Spe Bashful Nature Dark Pulse Dragon Pulse Fire Blast U-turn
I felt that Draco Meteor would ruin the sweep, so I chose Dragon Pulse over it. This guy needs no setup, he just fires away at anything. Fire Blast gets rid of Steels, like Forretress, Dark Pulse and Dragon Pulse are great STABs. U-turn is for getting away from something bad.
Gliscor (M) @ Toxic Orb Trait: Poison Heal EVs: 252 HP, 184 Def, 72 Spe Impish Nature Earthquake Fire Fang Toxic Protect
A great physical sweeper, along with an excellent ability, makes Gliscor (Or maybe some would prefer Gliscurr) an excellent addition to any OU. Sheesh, I sound like an advertizer for Serebii. XD Anyway, Protect and Toxic are for stalling, Earthquake is a great STAB move, and Fire Fang is for the Ice-types.
Blissey (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Serene Grace EVs: 252 HP, 252 SpAtk, 4 SpDef Modest Nature Charge Beam Ice Beam Aromatherapy Softboiled
Listen, before you run into your room, screaming into your pillow, "SS IS SO STUPID!!!" hear me out. Blissey uses Charge Beam to get that Special Attack up. Because of Serene Grace, it'll always raise it. Ice Beam is for the Dragons that seem unstoppable (believe me, a dude misclicked when this was facin' a Dragonite, and I didn't even use one Charge Beam, and it still KO'ed it on the spot!). Aromatherapy is for Status, and Softboiled is to heal.
Well, hope you like the team. Do a good job! :D
I'll try my best fixing this team although it looks pretty good and creative which I like :)
Since you have baton-pass on Ninjask, Dragontail on Kyurem-B is kinda useless so replace that for Focus Blast~. It's also choice banded so go for Jolly nature to get some speed in the battle.
Espeon- Leftovers Trait- Magic Bounce Evs- 4 HP/ 252 SpAtk./ 252 Speed/ Timid °Sub. °Calm Mind °Psychic °Shadow Ball Leftovers will heal your sub. damage.
I'll replace Hydreigon for Forretress since you need a decent rapid spinner that can take stealth rocks damage and wall Scizor with it high defense. Forretress- Leftovers Trait- Sturdy Evs- 252 HP/ 252 Def./ 4 SpD/ Relaxed °Rapid Spin °Toxic spikes °Spikes °Volt Switch/Gyro Ball
Blissey needs changing- Blissey- Leftovers Trait- Natural Cure Evs- 252 HP/ 4 Def./ 252 SpD/ Calm °Toxic °SoftBoiled °Stealth rocks °flamethrower
So I try my best to fix some errors on this team. Hope this help :)

Basketball signees |
Terrance Bennett, star G from Jackson inks with EMCC!! Anthony Foster, Lions sign one of Jackson's top PG's!! -- The East Mississippi staff searched the state looking for a tough, hard nosed point guard, and came away with signing Jackson Wingfield 5'7 PG Anthony Foster. Foster is a physical PG that can get in the lane at will, as well as knock down the outside shot, and comes from a high school program with great tradition in Jackson Wingfield. Foster was instrumental in leading Wingfield to a State Tournament birth this year. "Anthony is as tough as they come. And he is a winner. Anthony has that never-back-down attitude on the court, and will be a huge asset to the East Mississippi program." -Head Coach Mark White Anthony averaged 10.2 ppg and 8.1 assists per game, which ranked near the top of the State in that category. Anthony is also one of the top defensive PG's in the State. Larry Foster, star Alabama guard ready to suit up for Lions!! -- Former Mr. Basketball winner in Alabama, 6'3 G Larry Foster signs with the East Mississippi Lions, and is ready to suit up for the 2008-'09 season. Foster, the former Sumter Co HS star, won a State Championship to go along with the Mr. Basketball award his senior season. In addition, Foster was first team All State, and an honorable mention All American. Foster played one season at Wallace State CC in Alabama, and will have one season to play in a Lions uniform. "Words cannot express how excited we are to have Larry as a part of the East Miss family. Larry is a hard working, talented kid who we will look to be a team leader." -Head Coach Mark White Foster averaged 22.5 ppg and 11.4 rpg his senior year in high school. Robert Elam, D-1 commitment inks with East Mississippi!! -- The Lions got a huge signee this past week with the addition of 6'7 F Robert Elam from Nashville Christian Academy. Elam, who had committed early to Austin Peay, a Division 1 school in Clarksville, TN, opted instead to go the junior college route and increase his stock. Elam is an athletic, versatile 6'7 F who can play on the wing as well as going inside. "We are very fortunate to have signed a player of Robert's caliber, and are excited about his potential in this league. Robert is very long, skilled, and athletic, and has the work ethic and drive to be a very special player." -Head Coach Mark White Elam, originally from Batesburg, SC, excelled at the powerhouse Prep School in Nashville, Tn under the tutelage of coach Carl Reed, averaging 16.7 ppg and 12.3 rpg, to go along with 3 blocked shots per game playing a loaded schedule that included a close loss to national power Oak Hill Academy. Johnathon Harris, 6'3 guard signs with Lions!! -- Starkville High School star guard Johnathon Harris signed this past April with the East Mississippi Lions, turning down a host of other top Junior Colleges all over the south. Harris, who led Starkville High to back to back Mississippi State Final 4 appearances, will be asked upon to produce early for the Lions next year. Playing for coach Greg Carter at Starkville High, Johnathon averaged 10.3 ppg on a balanced Yellowjacket attack, to go along with 7.4 rebounds per game, and was the team's top defender. "We are very fortunate to have a young man like Johnathon coming into the program. He is an outstanding talent, but also a very hard working and humble individual. Johnathon is the next in a long line of outstanding talent coming out of Starkville High" -Head Coach Mark White Johnathon was ranked as the #2 ranked player in the Class of 2008 area rankings, according to www.centercourtbasketball.com after his outstanding play last summer during a number of high profile showcases. Jeremy Blair, one of State's top scorers inks with East Miss!! -- The East Mississippi Men's Basketball team got some great news with the signing of one of Mississippi's top scorers in 6'0 East Oktibbeha HS PG Jeremy Blair. Blair was outstanding this past year as he tried to lead a young East Oktibbeha team in their quest to repeat as State Champs. Blair averaged 24.6 ppg along the way, and scored at will from all over the court, using his sweet shooting stroke and excellent quickness. "Jeremy is going to be a great asset to the East Mississippi basketball family, and we could not be more excited to bring in a kid with his ability to score the ball. Jeremy is a fantastic kid, and we see a bright future for him at East Mississippi CC" -Head Coach Mark White Charles Houston, former Columbus High star signs for second stint with Lions!! -- The Lions got a huge boost with the news that former Columbus High School star Charles Houston, who played as a freshman for East Miss a few years back, decided to make a comeback and sign with the 2008-09 East Mississippi hoops program. Houston was an honorable mention All State performer at Columbus, and put up astounding numbers at 23.4 ppg and 12.1 rebounds per game. "We are very excited about having CJ (Charles) as a part of the East Miss family. He is an outstanding talent, and has been working very hard to prepare himself for this upcoming season. CJ could be one of the better frontcourt players in this league next year." -Head Coach Mark White Rodricko Ware, former Starkville star ready to suit up for Lions!! -- The most recent signee to the East Mississippi hoops program is former Starkville High star G Rodrikco Ware. Ware, originally part of the Class of 2005, has yet to play in his first collegiate game, and comes to the Lions hungry to make an immediate impact. Ware was one of the top players in the State during his time at Starkville and a highly sought after recruit. Ware will bring high energy play and a great scoring ability with him to Scooba. "We are all very excited about the possibilities that Koko (Rodrikco) brings to the table. He is a fierce competitor, and hungry to be an outstanding college basketball player. Koko is quick, athletic, and a true scorer." -Head Coach Mark White Ware averaged 21 ppg and 6.3 rebounds per game during his senior year at Starkville, and was a teammate of graduating Lions stars Jarvis Hill and Keith James during his time there. |

Sachem East's Nick Caruana has arrived
Nick Caruana once thought he was a better field hockey player than his older sister, Jessica. Never mind that he didn't play the sport. And never mind that she was four years his senior and an all-state star for Sachem East — little brother was competitive enough to challenge her to a one-on-one, and bold enough to believe he could win.
He lost, 10-0. But never mind that, either.

Tom "Draco" Felton Spills the Beans!
In a previous blog entry, I revealed that I sometimes like to hug a cardboard cut-out of a certain boy wizard. So it should come as no surprise that I almost fell out of my chair when I heard that Scholastic was going to have the opportunity to interview Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies!
I wasn't going to be doing the interview myself, but I was given the chance to submit some questions — and Tom Felton even said that one of MY questions was something he had never been asked before! When I heard about that, I couldn't have been more pleased with myself than if I were Percy Weasley!
Here was my question:
You've posted some music videos on YouTube where you play the guitar and sing. Are those all original songs, and how long have you been writing and performing?
And here's what Tom said:
I won't lie. This is the first time an interviewer has asked me about that. A friend of mine, a good musical friend of mine, moved away about a year and a half ago, and she was always very keen to hear new music. And we just figured the best way to do that was to put it onto YouTube — under an alias, obviously. But it didn't stay hidden very long, and now it's very much sort of in the public domain. So it was never really intended to be an advertising spin by any means, but yeah, they are original songs and obviously not sort of developed by any means but just sort of a little early draft, if you will. Just a bit of fun! But it seems to have a positive response, so I'm enjoying it.
Awesome, right? Well, I thought so, anyway . . .
Want more of the interview? Keep reading, below! But this is just part of the interview — keep an eye out for more tidbits in the Scholastic magazines that you sometimes get at school (like Scope, Action, and Junior Scholastic), PLUS on the web in Scholastic News Online's special section just for entertainment news!
Now, without further ado . . . here's Draco!
Scholastic: What's your opinion of Draco?
Tom: Not a very
pleasant one, I assure you. I figure, I think of him as a misled only
child who's been slightly bullied into his state of mind, if you will.
But in long short, he is a nasty bit of work. A bit of a slimy,
troublesome character who's not really up for any good and certainly
the benefit of anyone else.
Scholastic: Well, my next question was going to be, "Do you think
people misunderstand him?" But I guess you already answered that.
Well, I suppose, "yes" would be the answer. By the same token, he
doesn't do a great job of trying to convince otherwise, does he?
Scholastic: Do your fans ever sort of treat you like Draco? Like a bad boy?
That's happened, yes, it has happened. Especially with the younger
generation — sort of 6 or 7 down, age-wise. They can get rather off put
by seeing my face. They seem to associate me with something rather
negative, which I can only take as a compliment ,really, I suppose.
Scholastic: Is there any one story or encounter that you remember that involved a fan approaching you as the bad guy?
Some people take it very seriously how I was making Harry's life not
pleasant at school, and they would plead with me not to pick on him.
But I don't know if they were taking it to the next level or whether
they were actually confused whether it was real life or film —
something along those lines. That was a little bit shocking, to be
fair. I tried to reassure them that nothing was real, and me and Daniel
were quite good friends, but it didn't seem to sink in with them.
Scholastic: You're a big fishing fan. This might sound weird, but are there any similarities between acting and fishing?
You know what, I never thought so until you asked that question.
Patience. Patience is required heavily in fishing and much the same
with the film set. Obviously, some days it doesn't go as fast as you
would have hoped or you would have expected. But it's all about keeping
the energy and keeping the — not only patience — but just to enjoy
every minute of it. Because sometimes it can be quite easy to sort of
slump back if you have an hour or two to wait and it's important to
make the most of the time with the cast and crew while you're still
Scholastic: Are there any Draco Malfoy moments from the books that you're disappointed weren't included in the movie?
No, I wouldn't think so. I mean, I remember reading the book before and
thinking, "Oh, lord! This'll be fun! I was especially looking forward
to the pool in the bathroom and being able to stamp on young Potter's
face on the Hogwarts Express. I was always looking forward to the
things of a physical nature. But they all got included, so no
let-downs there.
Scholastic: Do you guys have any on-set rituals or traditions when you're filming?
I wouldn't go as far as any rituals, but I might go as far as to say a
cup of tea doesn't really hurt. Right before we get the event
proceedings, so to speak. Maybe a cup of tea, maybe a biscuit or two to
go with it if it's a Friday. But other than that, no, we certainly
don't get in a circle and chant or anything like that.
Scholastic: That's why we Americans adore you Brits!
Tom: Why is that? A cup of tea?
Scholastic: It's so civilized!
Tom: Oh, very much so. We
always sort of talk around in the middle of break — we're talking about
politics and all the rest of it . . . I'm only joking — far from it!
We're quite primitive. We've got our polystyrene cups outside, that
sort of thing.
Scholastic: What's the best thing about filming a movie?
The bond between the cast and crew is always a good one. Each day
you're subconsciously getting closer and closer, but you don't realize
it until it's time to say goodbye and you think, "Oh, wow. It was only
a few weeks ago that I didn't know this person."
Scholastic: Do you have an all-time favorite book that you've read?
Tom: At the moment I'm reading The Origin of Species
by Charles Darwin, and for some reason that question sort of blanked my
mind on all other types of literature. But as a child I was amazingly
fond of Rudyard Kipling and Roald Dahl . . . Nowadays I wouldn't dare
to single it down to one to be fair. We'll go with Shakespeare, how's

Damn, Donald Trump, is it really necessary to get your hand into every single pie (and no, I'm not talking about your romantic entanglements)? The multifaceted mogul is weighing in on the recent Ground Zero Mosque conversation … by trying to buy the property it's slated to stand on.
The man best known these days for "The Apprentice" (and for somehow still having his hair) evidently offered to pay 25% more than the building's buyer did (and that pricetag was $5 million).
"I am making this offer as a resident of New York and a citizen of the United States, not because I think the location is a spectacular one (because it is not), but because it will end a very serious, inflammatory and highly divisive situation that is destined, in my opinion, only to get worse," he wrote.
