Michael Crapo on Principles & ValuesRepublican Sr Senator (ID) |
"In the past month, many Senators have asked me about my judicial philosophy. It is simple: fidelity to the law. The task of a judge is not to make the law--it is to apply the law. And it is clear, I believe, that my record in two courts reflects my rigorous commitment to interpreting the Constitution according to its terms; interpreting statutes according to their terms and Congress's intent; and hewing faithfully to precedents established by the Supreme Court and my Circuit Court. In each case I have heard, I have applied the law to the facts at hand."
The Adherents.com website is an independent project and is not supported by or affiliated with any organization (academic, religious, or otherwise).
Such factors as religious service attendance, belief, practice, familiarity with doctrine, belief in certain creeds, etc., may be important to sociologists, religious leaders, and others. But these are measures of religiosity and are usually not used academically to define a person's membership in a particular religion. It is important to recognize there are various levels of adherence, or membership within religious traditions or religious bodies. There's no single definition, and sources of adherent statistics do not always make it clear what definition they are using.
OnTheIssues.org interprets the 2006 AU scores as follows:
Americans United for Separation of Church and State (AU) is a religious liberty watchdog group based in Washington, D.C. Founded in 1947, the organization educates Americans about the importance of church-state separation in safeguarding religious freedom. AU is a nonpartisan organization dedicated to preserving the constitutional principle of church-state separation as the only way to ensure religious freedom for all Americans.
Americans United is a national organization with members in all 50 states. We are headquartered in Washington, D.C., and led by the Rev. Barry W. Lynn, executive director. AU has more than 75,000 members from all over the country. They include people from all walks of life and from various faith communities, as well as those who profess no particular faith. We are funded by donations from our members and others who support church-state separation. We do not seek, nor would we accept, government funding.
As Republican Members of the House of Representatives and as citizens seeking to join that body, we propose not just to change its policies, but to restore the bounds of trust between the people and their elected representatives. That is why, in this era of official evasion and posturing, we offer instead a detailed agenda for national renewal, a written commitment with no fine print.

Marco Mordente is a reliable combo guard who is bidding to grab a place at what would be his third EuroBasket tournament having played in the 2005 and 2007 editions as well as at the FIBA World Chamoionship in 2006. He is often used coming off the bench as a valuable back-up and is happy with the ball in his hands and creating but more often than not trying to find space to shoot the ball. He has enjoyed another strong season in Milan and that was recognised when he was invited to participate in the Italian League All Star Game earlier this year. Mordente is solid defensively and has seen it all before with 15 years as a professional and could be a valuable member of the roster both on and off the court for Coach Piangiani.

The original aim of The War Graves Photographic Project was to photograph every war grave, individual memorial, Ministry of Defence grave, and family memorial of serving military personnel from WWI to the present day. However, due to its popularity we have now extended our remit to cover all nationalities and military conflicts and make these available within a searchable database.
Now working as a joint venture with the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, and assisting the Office of Australian War Graves, Canadian Veterans Affairs and the New Zealand Ministry of Heritage and Culture this will enable families, scholars and researchers to obtain, via the CWGC or TWGPP websites, a copy of the photograph of a grave or memorial which for many is impossible to visit due to the location.
This service has only been made possible through the efforts of a dedicated group of volunteers, from all walks of life, who feel the need to Remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice and who realise the importance for families to see where their loved ones are laid to rest or commemorated. This emulates the CWGC ethos to 'Remember in Perpetuity'.
Please use the search facility to check if a photograph is currently held and available. If unsuccessful please 'Contact us'

Climate change
Climate Change is affecting all countries, but Least Developed Countries and other vulnerable developing countries are expected to be hit earliest and hardest. Africa will be particularly affected in terms of food security, sustainable water supply and extreme weather phenomena such as floods, droughts and threats of desertification. Economies and livelihoods of an increasing number of communities, countries and sub-regions in Africa continue to decline due to desert encroachment partly emanating from climate change and locally generated land degradation processes.
In addressing these pertinent issues, Africa and the EU will engage in a partnership that will provide for dialogue, cooperation and exchange on concrete actions to respond to climate change and an effective channel for holding deliberations on a shared Africa-EU vision, with close links to the proposed Global Climate Change Alliance. This will take into account African initiatives such as the African Climate Information for Development in Africa (ClimDev Africa) Programme and the need to implement and further develop climate change related instruments, especially the 1992 UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Kyoto Protocol (KP), but also the UN Convention on Combating Desertification (UNCCD) and will represent an integrated framework for Africa-EU cooperation on climate change.

My absolute goal here today is to talk to those of you who are young men in your twenties. I work with a lot of young women and they came to me and asked if I could do something about all the men in their twenties. They canât stand them because they claim they all act like total douche bags. I completely understand why they date men in their thirties. Young men in your twenties, you ARE acting like total douche bags! Stop it right now. Itâs absolutely out of control.
What has happened in recent years. I promised them I would do my part to try to get the word out. Douchism is very similar to narcissism, but with more cheeseball flair. Sometimes even being âcockyâ is acceptable, if you can back it up, but being a DB is uncalled for and you do not impress anyone. Let me fill you in on what a douche bag is and you can decipher for yourself if you ARE one.
Are you a douchebag? Pop quiz number 1:
When you go out with your boys for the evening, does your outfit head to toe cost more than your monthly rent?
Have you ever spent more than $200 on a pair of sunglasses and do you put them on top of your head even if you are going out after dark?
Do you watch âThe Hillsâ and not get completely frustrated with the guys?
Do you deny that you work at a kiosk in the Mall?
Have you upgraded your phone so many times that you are now up to a 10 year contract with your provider?
Do you pay the valet guy an extra 20 to put your Honda up front and does it have a huge exhaust system?
Do you overuse nicknames for women with your buddies? Ex: âCheck out that baby, honey, cougar, kitten, spinner, etcâ¦
Do you love Bottle Service at bars?
Do you look at the ads in GQ or a Brit Pop musician?
Have you modified your name to give it hairdresser type flair, such as changing Gerald to JuRahld?
Do you pick out shirts based on how the material feels or if your nipple ring with show?
Do you have a hookup at the gym to get supplements that you donât see at a GNC?
Do you ever wear compression gear when your NOT working out?
Do you like it when people think you are talking to them when you are shouting to your Bluetooth earpiece?
Do you act like a big baller on a Vegas trip and have 8 guys crashing in one room?
Do you think itâs o.k. to jump in with a group of girls dancing with each other?
Do you talk about yourself in third person?
Do you have more than one type of hair styling product and/or do you use more than one mirror to look at your hair from other angles?
Are you a douchebag? Do you use any of this terminology on a regular basis?
Pop quiz number 2.
n.: a bad situation.
âLooks like we may have a shituation on our hands, I donât know either of those door guysâ
A Bag o' Beagles
Term used to ridicule a woman with a less than fit posterior.
âShe shouldnât even try to squeeze into 7âs sportin a bag oâ beagles like that.â
Textual Relations
To engage in dirty talk with ones partner via text message.
âHold on dog, go on outside to smoke without me, Iâm in mid textual relations with that baby from earlier tonight.â
Rut ro
âUh ohâ in Scooby doo language.
âRut ro, looks like JuRahld (I) done forgot his ATM card.â
A term used to describe girlfriends that kiss at bars when drunk, usually do get attention. The female DB.
âLetâs roll up on dem barsexuals, smells of easy pickins, love dem bachelorette partays.â
Make it rain
Term used by a DB to convince the bouncer they are going to spend a lot of money if he letâs his posse in. It will be raining currency.
âYo dog, weâve been on da wrong side da velvet rope for over an hour. We promise to make it rain once we get in.â
This is what DBâs do to each other when on opposite sides of the room. Itâs a pretend, mid-air hi five, usually because heâs talking to a girl.
âWhy you wi-fivin that a-hole. He tried to steal your look.â
Clark Kent job.
This is what most DBâs call their job. Itâs an excuse for why they work at a kiosk. Just a day job, a cover for saving the planet.
âSelling gyro-copters at the mall is just my Clark Kent job, me and my boys are working on building one of the skyscraper condo deals.â
Someone who asks many stupid, pointless, obnoxious questions. Most DBâs are askholes themselves, but donât know it.
âWho you callin askhole, askhole?â
Some poor girl mistakenly gave a DB her number and he starts texting her that same night. This is the lag time between the DB asking if he can come over and her response.
âIâm throwin it out the re to meet her at an after hours party, but my textpectations tell me sheâll reply to just come over to my place to break of a piece oâ me.â
So now I think you get the idea. If you answered yes, to any part of quiz one or use terms far too often in quiz two, itâs time to, as Dr. Phil would say, âtake a look at yourself.â Try not to hate me for laying it all out there for you. I wish someone would have had this talk with me when I was 22. I wasnât at the level of the douche bags of today, but I had to look pretty silly as a Tony Robbins protégé in the heyday of Nirvana. I can never redo that, but you still have time. Next time you go out, just wear a plain white undershirt. If you are worried that you canât get into your club of choice wearing that, you donât need to be going there anyway.
And as for you twenty something chicks, I hold you partially responsible for this mess we are in today. If you would stop talking to these guys and giving them your phone numbers, this would all go away and you wouldnât have to pull and Anna Nicole and date 90 year old men.

Again. Night duty. Dietrich didn't have much love for patrolling the streets at night, but as a good German and a good Nazi he was expected to do the jobs he was given by his superiors. They had explained to him about the enforced curfew for all the Jewish citizens of the city before assigning everybody their jobs. "That should keep the pigs out of trouble. We don't want them robbing or assaulting us good Germans do we?" he listened to his superior and realized he had a point. He was doing this to protect civilians and he knew it was better than being sent to the eastern front.
Dietrich was doing another round of his given region when he noticed somebody from the corner of his eye. Somebody had just ran into an ally way. "It must be another one." he muttered to himself, getting closer to investigate. His eyes scanned the body of the person now standing in front of him. She didn't look much like a "proper" German as Dietrich had been taught. "Where do you think you're going, miss?"

text: Miss Tansybaum's CarnivalBy all accounts, Miss Tansybaum's Circus of the Moderately Peculiar should not have continued to operate. They were a very small operation as circuses went, they had no rides and their menagerie consisted of a single geriatric lion and a handful of obscure species, such as the Sudanese Crooning Lizards, who were obscure for a reason. Sure, Brendan the Mono-juggler could keep a single ball in the air for hours, but you got tired of watching after the first few minutes.Lord Maggothaunch's Carnival of the Un-Ordinary should have crushed them out of existence in the first year--indeed, that was among the lord's stated goals--and its failure to

Brownwood Water Reuse Plant
By: Liz Gonzales
Updated: January 11, 2013
"We have gotten approval now to construct this facility. We've gotten a loan from the Texas water development board for approximately $8 million to construct the facility," says Bobby Rountree, Brownwood City Manager.
Everyone has the same initial thought.
"People will turn up their nose immediately but if you've been to the metroplex, if you've been to Houston, you're drinking recycled waste water," he explains.
Waste water flows downstream, and when it comes out of the waste water filtration plant, it's unlikely you'll recognize it.
"One bottle, it came from the drinking fountain here at city hall, the other bottle is the final product from our waste water treatment plant. And I'm not going to tell you which one it is," says Rountree.
The clear water you see would then go to the water reuse plant where extensive filtering would take place.
"It comes in here, it goes through 1-2-3-4-5 ultra filtration skids. These are huge filters that do the initial filtration. Then it goes up through ultra violet lights," explains Rountree.
The water would hit 5 different stages of filtration before it would ever reach your faucet.
"It will produce a million and a half gallons of water per day," says Rountree.
That's a million and a half gallons of rain water that stays in Lake Brownwood.
The water reuse plant would not only diminish the constant need for rain but also it would allow Lake Brownwood to be used for recreational purposes.
And if you're not on board yet, climb on.
"The City of Brownwood is not the first to do this. There will be other cities that will be doing it. In fact, I dare say, in 5-10 years it's gonna be a pretty standard process," he says.
With Texas growing at a rate of 1,200 people per day, the water will have to come from somewhere.

Depends on your fields rules so you will have to ask them. Btw The first team to lose a player almost always loses that game so keep your guns rolling catch one of them making a mistake and the game is yours.
Posted 08 August 2012 - 07:06 PM
the towel is a flag, is the flag in the middle of the field or is there one at each flag station? if it is in the middle odds are you take the flag to their start station but if there are 2 flags then you take theirs back to your base
Posted 09 August 2012 - 01:28 AM
Ok that's what I thought, I just wasn't too sure. Thanks
I love Azodin CS

All who are led by God's Spirit are God's sons and daughters. 15 You didn't receive a spirit of slavery to lead you back again into fear, but you received a Spirit that shows you are adopted as his children. With this Spirit, we cry, " Abba, Father. " 16 The same Spirit agrees with our spirit, that we are God's children. 17 But if we are children, we are also heirs. We are God's heirs and fellow heirs with Christ, if we really suffer with him so that we can also be glorified with him.

Not that he is letting his recent success go to his head.
The American has even bigger goals ahead -- trying to overhaul Austrian Marcel Hirscher at the top of this season's overall World Cup standings and then challenging for gold at the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics.
"I still believe the overall (World Cup) title winner is the No. 1 skier in the world," Ligety said.
"I have been having a great season but I'm a little way back in the overall, so to me Marcel Hirscher is the No. 1 in the world.
"I had a really hot couple of weeks and luckily that fell during the world championships. I am hopeful I can continue the success of the worlds into the other events besides giant slalom."
Ligety's no-nonsense approach and relentless quest for improvement means he has swerved the media hullabaloo which accompanies his fellow U.S. teammates such as Lindsey Vonn and Bode Miller.
"I'm not doing ski racing to become famous. I do it because I love it and I'm competitive. That's what drives me. My main focus is on ski racing, not the red carpet," he states on his official website.
Vonn's fall in the women's super-G at Schladming, suffering a serious knee injury, brought her season to a premature end, and with Miller still recovering from a knee injury of his own, Ligety might have to start getting used to a more intensive media glare.
Unexpected triumph
Suddenly all the attention is on him, and even he admits that his success was a little unexpected.

Origin or 'State of Origin' is a 3 match battle between Australian Rugby League's two premier state's; NSW and QLD.
Player's are chosen on a 'state of origin' basis rather than on which state they currently live. For three matches the gameplay takes sideline to hitups, hardhits and fighting. Many memorable hits have been thrown and sometimes games are so overtaken by fighting and smashing the opposition that a match may end up 2-0. (4 points for a try and 2 points for a goal). GO NSW. Australain 1: "Let's get a case and get fucked up watching 'origin'."
Australian 2: "Why does Robbie O'Davis play for Newcastle in (NSW), but played origin for Queensland?" Australian 1: "Coz hes from QLD, that's why they call it 'state of origin'." |

U.S. stocks head for a weak open Friday, as investors took in a mixed bag of corporate news and results and waited for the latest news out of Europe.
Dow Jones industrial average, S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures were between 0.2% and 0.5% lower. Stock futures indicate the possible direction of the markets when they open at 9:30 a.m. ET.
General Electric reported earnings ahead of the opening bell that topped estimates but revenue fell short.
Investors had been bracing for a lackluster quarter, but the bulk of corporate results have come in above expectations. Of the 77 S&P 500 companies that had reported earnings through Wednesday, 48 have topped forecasts, according to research from S&P Capital IQ.
Early Friday, entertainment company Viacom reached a "long-term" deal with DirectTV, ending a week-long feud between the two. That means that DirectTV subscribers won't lose access to more than a dozen channels, including MTV, Nick and Comedy Central.
IPOs will also be in focus early Friday. Palo Alto Networks will make its public debut after pricing its initial public offering at $42 a share -- above its estimated range. Travel site Kayak will also finally start trading. Kayak priced its IPO at $26 a share.
It's been a pretty good week for going public. Thursday, shares of Five Below surged 55% after the teen retailer raised $163 million through its IPO.
Meanwhile, there are still signs of weakness in the broader economy and Europe's debt crisis remains a concern. Eurozone finance ministers will meet Friday, and are expected to finalize the terms of the first part, or €30 billion, of a bailout for Spanish banks.
Spain has a lot to contend with. Much like Greece, Spaniards have taken to the streets in violent protest of tough austerity cuts the eurozone's fourth-largest economy needs to make. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Spanish bond moved back above 7% - a worrisome and unsustainable level.
U.S. stocks held onto modest gains Thursday as investors weighed the latest corporate results against poor economic data.

The MSUB-A122 sets up just like any normal subwoofer. I plopped it down in my "subwoofer sweet spot" — the place where a single sub sounds best from my listening chair — and fed it with a line-level signal from the subwoofer output of my Denon receiver. I turned the sub's crossover control to max (150 Hz) and set the level about midway.
The sub looks nice with or without its black fabric grille. I took the grille off so I could monitor the woofer cone's excursions — and maybe back the volume down if it looked like the cone was about to rip free of the basket when I played my favorite deep-bass test tracks.
I used the MSUB-A122 with everything from fancy speakers like the MartinLogan EM-ESL to ultra-downmarket stuff like the Dayton Audio B652, in every case setting my receiver's crossover point to 80 Hz so the MSUB-A122 would have to handle all the bass.
I compared the MSUB-A122 to the Cadence CSX-12 Mark II (which until I got the Monoprice sub seemed like an outrageously inexpensive product) and the new Definitive Technology SuperCube 4000. Don't say it, I know: Those subs are more than four and eight times the MSUB-A122's price, respectively. You expect me to keep a stock of $84 subs on hand for comparison?
When I want to get a real quick idea of how a subwoofer performs in a home theater setup, I always cue up chapter 3 of the Star Wars, Episode II: Attack of the Clones DVD. (Yeah, I know I should get the new Blu-ray Disc, but the DVD gets going so much quicker.) The sound from the spaceship that opens the chapter — followed by the ship's nasty, loud explosion — is one of the toughest low-frequency tests I've heard in a movie soundtrack.
I didn't have to wait for the chapter to start to hear that the MSUB-A122 sounded boomier and less distinct than the subs I usually test for S+V. Even the music that accompanies the DVD menu — which of course I usually ignore — told me this was no $500 subwoofer. But get this: The MSUB-A122 played loud and powerful on both the ship's fly-over and the explosion. It wasn't particularly distinct, but it wasn't distorted, either, and the sound was very full. With the ship fly-over in SWII and the simple, ominous bass tones in the soundtrack of the Frozen Blu-ray Disc, the MSUB-A122 sounded fairly close to the more expensive subs. None of the subs I've heard in inexpensive home-theater-in-a-box or soundbar systems could even approach this level of output. But more demanding effects, such as the spaceship explosion in SWII, lost their impact. Instead of "boom!" you get something more like "whoom!"
No matter what I played, the MSUB-A122 never sounded strained. This is because it doesn't attempt to do what it can't. Deep-bass torture tests like the organ symphonies from Camille Saint-Säens and Joseph Jongen don't faze the MSUB-A122 because it ignores the lowest frequencies entirely, reproducing only the harmonics of those tones. You don't notice this unless you're seeking out the limits of the sub's deep-bass performance, though; it never, ever sounds thin or weak.
It's important not to confuse "boomy" with "one-notey," an adjective commonly used to describe the sound of inexpensive subwoofers, which tend to make all bass notes sound like the same note. Because the MSUB-A122 doesn't sound one-notey. You can hear the individual notes quite well, they just don't have the punch you'd get with something like the Cadence CSX-12.
Paired with the Dayton Audio B652s, the MSUB-A122 makes a remarkable sound, considering the whole system costs just $118.60. It's not what I'd call refined — not by a long shot — but it's certainly a full-range system without the obvious frequency response holes and midrange roughness that plague many inexpensive HTiBs and soundbar systems. Therefore, it's quite satisfying for casual listening. Combine these with your iPod, an adapter cable and one of the little Pyle amps from Parts Express and you would have one hard-rocking sound system for your garage or playroom for less than $150 brand-new.
Did you get a chance to listen to it?
Yes! See page 2 under "Performance"
Not sure if I got a bad one or what but mine sounds ok except for every few minutes when it bumps like it got a big bass signal. It is quite annoying. I had to disconnect it. I would return it but I threw away the box and it would cost a lot to return so it will just sit here. Maybe if I get a new receiver it will be better. Some day...
Hi Registered,
Sorry the subwoofer didn't meet your expectations. We'd love to get some more feedback from you so that we can work on improvements to our products or possibly determine if you might have gotten a defective product. Also, you don't necessarily have to return it in the original box as long as you return all the included materials. Please contact us through our live online chat feature on our website so we can further discuss the issues you are having and also see what we can do to make the return process easier for you.
Tech Support
You get what you pay for! I shudder to think of all the people who will WASTE $84 on this abomination of a product! It shouldnt even really be called a "sub" or "subwoofer", because there is nothing "sub" about it's frequency range! If you are looking for enhanced MID-bass, by all means, waste your money! If you are looking for a woofer that will MAKE YOUR MAIN SPEAKERS SOUND WORSE, give this a try! Otherwise, save your money and get a REAL subwoofer. There are PLENTY of good choices under $1000. Find one that fits your budget AND your expectations of sound quality...and if quality matters AT ALL....stay away from monoprice entirely!
John Nemesh. Keep pushing your overpriced products with your company at AVAD and stop being so butt-hurt you can't keep ripping people off forever. I am sorry you aren't going to milk a few grand from a poor sucker.
1. Where does the $9 shipping come in? Mine showed up at ~$32.
2. I'm surpised at jnemesh! He missed using an exclamation point on two sentences! He is obviously an inferior poster!

Radon Exposure In FloridaRadon - You cant see it. You cant smell it. You cant taste it. Radon, a Class A carcinogen, is the second leading cause of lung cancer. Radon comes from the radioactive breakdown of naturally occurring radium found in most Florida soils. As a gas in the soil, it enters buildings through small openings in the foundation. Since the building can hold the radon similarly to smoke trapped under a glass, indoor radon concentrations can increase to many times that of outdoor levels.
Radon may be a problem in your homeIn some areas of Florida, one out of two homes has excessive amounts of radon. Most Floridians live on the floor where the concentrated radon gas enters the building. The Florida Department of Health, in conjunction with the local county public health units, is working to support Floridians as they protect themselves from radiation exposure from radon gas. Florida is aggressive in its policies attacking unnecessary radon exposure to the public. Florida is in the forefront in consumer protection concerning radon issues. The State has required radon measurement and reduction companies and personnel to be certified since 1989. Florida has a mandatory radon testing program for various public facilities, such as public and private schools, state licensed day care centers, and 24 hour care facilities such as nursing homes and hospitals. This public testing information allows Floridians to make informed decisions in the care and education of their loved ones. In these pages you will find reference materials and links about radon in Florida and nation wide. There is a listing of the Florida certified radon businesses. There are connections to EPA and other radon information, as well as radon resistant construction information for Florida. |

How useful are the Heart Foundation risk criteria for assessment of emergency department patients with chest pain
Emergency Medicine Australasia, 06/08/2012
Kelly AM – The Heart Foundation risk classification shows only fair predictive performance for MI, 7 and 30 day major adverse cardiac events (MACE). With specificity of approximately 50%, the recommendation for coronary care admission for all high–risk patients is hard to justify.
Methods- A planned sub-study of a prospective observational study of adult patients with potentially cardiac chest pain who underwent evaluation for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) was conducted.
- Data collected included demographical, clinical, ECG, biomarker and outcome data.
- Outcome of interest was diagnostic utility of the classification system for ACS or myocardial infarction (MI) at index presentation and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) within 7 and 30days.
- MACE included death, cardiac arrest, revascularization, cardiogenic shock, arrhythmia and prevalent (cause of presentation) and incident (occurring within the follow-up period) MI.
- Analysis was by descriptive and receiver-operator curve analyses.
- Seven hundred and sixty-eight patients were studied; 109 had MI (14.2%, 95% confidence interval [CI] 11.9-16.8%).
- There were 88 MACE at 7days (13.5%, 95% CI 11.1-16.4%) and 93 MACE at 30days (14.4%%, 95% CI 11.9-17.3%).
- Diagnostic performance (c-statistic) of the National Heart Foundation risk classification for ACS, MI, 7 and 30day MACE was 0.74 for each (95% CI 0.71-0.77).
- Although sensitivity of the high-risk classification for MI, 7 and 30day MACE was high (99-100%), specificity was low (48-50%).

text: The Show Catwalk Fashion Shows Autumn/Winter 2009-10 Ready-To-Wear Rick Owens 05 March 2009 Jessica Bumpus RICK OWENS likes to give us our fair share of complicated layers and slightly odd-looking accoutrements (remember the wimples and flipper boots of last season, anyone?) – something from which he didn't stray for his latest autumn/winter 2009-10 collection. The first eight looks all came in black – his signature sculpted leathers on jackets and boots (which somehow seemed to be part of the trousers too), and fine draped knitwear woven into fragments on tunics and dresses and wraparound cloaks that started at the collar and flared out into asymmetrical lengths. Zip-fronts on cropped jackets gave an austere edge to the looks, further intensified by what was to follow – the remaining ensembles came in white, grey, silver, the palest of blue and, towards the very end, a cool gold. Variations on a theme prevailed – but it's a theme that Owens does so well. Especially when you know that when you take away the futuristic styling and one or two of the multiple layers, what you're left with is some stunning pieces that are actually very wearable indeed.SEE THE RICK OWENS SHOW ARCHIVE SHOP RICK OWENS ON STYLEFINDER.COM

Oh fer Gawd sake. Somebody buy the director of photography a steady cam already. I don't understand why these guys think they are building excitement by rocking and rolling the camera all over. This is a movie. We are the viewers,happily outside looking in. We are not impressed by having the actors wear a camera on their heads like animal planet. Distracting to the point of being unable to avoid an epileptic seizure and worse,you can't see what's going on. Lazy filmaking. And yes, I saw the original and it had more heart. Several key elements of the story were removed in this remake, and it really dumbed the thing down in order to avoid stepping on anyones toes. Seriously, rent the Patrick Swayze version, it's easier to look at and the story is all there. And one more thing: apparently the go straight to the top and learn on the job thing is still in vogue.Since Obama ratified the concept, other amateurs have been hopping into the cat bird seat with impunity. Connor Cruise? Go home.
As far as remakes go, not too great. They changed a lot of story elements from the original. HOWEVER, they did very good adapting the America Invaded scenario to modern times and showed us a completely plausible way it could happen. I loved how they showed the strategy and thinking behind the action scenes. The acting was good, but nothing special. Josh Peck, Chris Hemsworth, and Josh Hutcherson held their own just fine. They're great actors but I feel they were extremely limited with the editing and direction of this film. Honestly I felt the entire film was limited by pushing it to a pg13 audience. Way too mature of matters to simply dumb down for a targeted audience. This felt more like the game Homefront than Red Dawn. But at the end of the day, it was good for it was. Though it did leave me wanting more (the ending came way to quick for my taste. It should have been longer and easily could have been.) But hey, the action is solid and the movie will keep your attention. It's good.
I am a huge fan of the original so I was very skeptical about this new version, in my mind I knew there were going to screw it up..After seeing it last night I have to say honestly,, it was better than the original ! ..It's so full of sitting on the edge of your seat action , a few one liners, and a few wow moments If you liked the first one you will love this one.. don't miss it
Now let me say, this is not the original but it still was good. If you want to see a movie with lots of actions, and things getting blown up, then this is the move you want to check out. I enjoyed the flick, and i can't wait to see what is in store down the road. Instead of the Russians attacking us, we have the North Koreans who are trying to take over our country. A band of kids will do everything in their power to stop this from happening. Are you a leader or a follower?? Join the Wolverines on this journey and see where it leads them. Great movie for action junkies, and not for the faint of heart. Too much going on for children. Go check it out.
This movie has to be my all time favorite movie ever! The excitement was great and even though it's kinda sad it's funny at the same time
It was so-so, the premise was kind of far fetched. Why would they attack Seattle?The acting was okay but the characters never seemed to fully embrace their rolesAny age would be fine
This was a great movie. Lot's of action, but a good plot and story line too. Very well made, good acting, and a believable story. ?The audience all clapped after the movie and several people yessed, "Go America!"Highly recommend you see this movie. Ignore the overly sensitive critics. If you want to ben entertained and uplifted, this is the movie.
I read all the reviews before seeing it and they all compared it to the original, so I tried to watch it without comparing. It was still bad and it doesn't even compare. It was cheesy and they did all this work at the end which didn't even seem to fit with the rest of the movie. No acting, no emotion but somewhat entertaining.
Good movie with updated special effects, but nowhere near as good as the original. The ending left you hanging, kind of like it's being transitioned to a TV series. Not disappointed but not in a hurry to see it again. Have seen the original a dozen times.
Is this a great movie? No, not by a long shot but it's very enjoyable on its own terms. A good actionerr . The critics hate it based on their political agenda. There's even a scene where the occupiers are making a public appearance and saying the how the people should be grateful since they saved us from corrupt capitalists and Wall St. Exactly what we just finished hearing during the campaign just ended and OWS before that. Can't beat that class warfare and the politics of envy. Would I have preferred the producers hadn't wussed out and renamed the enemy from the Red Chinese to N Korea? Sure. It might have been even more interesting (and plausible) to make the invaders UN troops but that would have meant a longer exposition and setup. The flick may jolt some young products of our government schools but I though the movie was every bit as (im)plausible than movies like Lions for Lambs or Rendition. And a heck of a lot more action.It might even recruit future Marines. S/F
This movie is truly one of the best films this year. The acting is quite impressive for action movie about teens fighting for their country. I cried more than once, and chances are your heart will break too. There is an appropriate amount of comic relief thrown in, but it doesn't feel forced in any way. It works.The shaky camera technique is used during many action scenes, adding a sense of chaos which fits perfectly to the film. Dialogue is well thought out, and wonderfully delivered, never feeling out of character or forced.The verdict:If you are an action movie fan, you'll absolutely love it. If you're not an action movie person, you will be completely satisfied. A wonderfully done film that will leave you wanting more.
Lots of potential in this cast but it was thoroughly wasted on a BAD screenplay adaptation of one of the best action scenarios of the 1980s. The testament to this truth is about as far away as Netflix or your local video source. The value of the original is not threatened or diminished by this remake, neither is the remake itself anachronistic, since this flavor?s been finely sliced and diced, politically corrected and delivered like pabulum for the "Scott Pilgrim" generation's violence diet. They should be righteously insulted by such condescension and pandering. Not much else to say here except next time they bring all this fine young talent together, how about giving them respect by providing them decent material? They're up to it and so is their audience. If you like the faces see this for a discount if you can. It's a stretch at ten bucks a seat.
This was kind of a silly movie. The plot was not really that developed or believable. The idea that the North Korean military could successfully invade & occupy most of the United States is ridiculous. I would really like to see the North Koreans try to invade a state like Texas lol The plot never explains how all these Korean military units got into the US - except saying that an EMP & nuclear missile launch disrupted the "entire" infrastructure. It came across as a "B" rated movie with so-so acting & "cheesy" lines. I suppose if you're not expecting a somewhat plausible plot, this movie wouldn't be too bad. I found myself laughing most of the time - which isn't necessarily a bad thing!
It's hard to imgine the North Koreans pushing such a large and complex operation. Overall I still am a big fan of the origianl Red Dawn! Opps! Did I just date myself!
So I wasn't expecting much when I went to see the remake of Red Dawn... but I was pleasantly surprised. While the threat of a North Korean invasion seemed a bit out there the action scenes and feeling of impending doom felt tangible. Overall, it was a good movie!

The hot-button issue of municipal amalgamation raised its head at a State of the City State of the Town address Tuesday.
Possible amalgamation of North Battleford and Battleford came up on the heels of Mayor Chris Odishaw's address.
He said the issue had come up more often prior to his term as mayor, but not so much during his term. Odishaw spoke of the "friendly competition" between Battleford and North Battleford, while also pointing to some of the shared partnerships the two communities have, including the contributions to the CUPlex, the river valley and other areas.
"I do feel proud and the town of Battleford feels proud that we do pull our weight and we do contribute to what is the Battlefords," said Odishaw, who is known to be opposed to amalgamation.
During the question and answer period that followed, Battlefords Chamber past-president Scott Campbell raised the issue with both Odishaw and North Battleford mayor Ian Hamilton.
Campbell said he thought it made more sense for the two communities to join together and compete as one against other communities, noting he disagreed with Odishaw on the issue but "Chris and I are good friends, we don't always agree."
Campbell asked Hamilton whether he's seen pressure to amalgamate.
Hamilton said people had asked a number of times and there has been some suggestion made to investigate and respond knowingly to the reasons why and why not, and list the advantages and disadvantages.
But the idea hasn't generated any momentum, he said, adding "it takes two to tango."
Odishaw said amalgamation has been looked at before by the Town, but he noted a big stumbling block was the separate water and sewer utilities for the two communities, among others.
"I don't see how you could join those two departments," said Odishaw, who said his council has never been able to identify cost-savings from an amalgamation.
Current Battlefords Chamber of Commerce president Pat Smith called it an "evolution" in the mind set of the two communities, noting there were "tremendous advantages" in terms of marketing the community.
"Don't wait until you have to amalgamate. Look at it before you have to," he said.

MCSO: Wanted man leads deputy on high-speed chase
Published: Friday, March 15, 2013 at 4:54 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 15, 2013 at 4:54 p.m.
REDDICK - A man with several warrants for his arrest, including for sexual battery, was taken into custody Thursday.
Sheriff's Deputy William Blair received information that Ronald Lee Griffin Jr. was a driving in the 10000 block of Northwest 160th Street and went to the area. He saw Griffin, who drove away.
Blair gave chase and, with speeds reaching approximately 110 mph, Griffin eventually pulled into the driveway of a residence in the 16000 block of Northwest 102nd Court, got out of his car and walked toward the home. The deputy apprehended Griffin and took him to the Marion County Jail.
In addition to the sexual battery charge, Griffin, 28, faces charges of driving on a suspended license and felony feeling or attempting to elude a police officer.

Great Sealing Suit

Comments about Bare 2013 7mm Elastek Full Suit Men's, Black/Blue:
This suit is a little tight to put on and take off, but what good wetsuit isn't? The wrist and leg seals are skin in, so there is very little water exchange, causing the suit to be very warm. After having had three custom suits over the years and having used a drysuit for the last 10 years, if they had a suit like this 10 years ago, I may not have purchased my drysuit.

I used this suit for snorkeling in Alaska, using a heated shirt underneath, and was comfortable for an hour.

About Me Beginner
This was a gift for my husband who also has the 3 and 5mm Bare wetsuits. He has tried other brands, but sticks with Bare because of the comfortable fit, and ease of donning the wetsuit.
Very comfortable 7 mil wet suit.
By Laredo Scuba Diver
from Laredo, Texas
A very comfortable wet suit. Feels like a 3 mil wet suit, because it is so easy to get on and off. Keeps you very warm even in 50 degree cold water.
Outstanding fit! Very durable!
