A great option is the Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Mini!!
It's got a similar satchel-like shape with the rocker attitude and is more affordable but still good quality.
You can find it on eBay:
The leather is so soft!! Such a classic, iconic bag with an attitude!!

New VP of Referee Operations Appointed Wednesday, September 5, 2012 by FLCeltsFan 4:36 PM Long time league executive Mike Bantom has been hired as the new executive VP of Referee Operations. Along with being a long time executive in the league, Bantom is also a former player. In his new position, Bantom will oversee the NBA's officiating program, including the recruiting, training and development of all NBA officials. He will be second in line to Joel Litvin, NBA President of League Operations. Bantom averaged 12.1 points and 6.4 rebounds in his nine-year NBA playing career. He made the NBA All-Rookie team after Phoenix drafted him with the eighth overall pick in the 1973 NBA Draft. Following his NBA career, Bantom competed seven more seasons in the Italian Professional League before retiring in 1989. He was also a member of the 1972 U.S. Olympic team that controversially lost the gold-medal game to the Soviet Union. Bantom has been an executive with the league for nearly 25 years. He has served as the league's senior vice president of player development since 1999 where he has been in charge of the NBA's Player Substance Abuse program, its Rookie Transition Program and its Continuing Education Program. Bantom will replace former two-star U.S. Army General Ronald Johnson, who stepped down from the post in July after holding the position for the past 4 years. After the betting scandal that rocked the NBA, Johnson was appointed to try to give the refs back some credibility. Johnson hasn't given the officiating credibility, in fact, the officiating has been just as bad, if not worse than before he took over. Here are just two examples. There was the debacle in the 2010 Finals. In the final quarter of that crucial contest, the Celtics were up on the Lakers in the 4th quarter with 8 minutes to go. At that point, the referees took over giving the Lakers 21 free throws to just 6 for the Celtics. The refs let both teams play in the first 3 quarters, averaging 5 free throws per quarter. Then in the 4th quarter, they quadrupled the number of fouls called on the Celtics but allowed the Lakers to continue to play. The 21 fourth quarter free throws awarded to the Lakers were the most taken in any quarter in any game in the 2010 playoffs. I believe that the agenda in play in that game was to keep Rasheed Wallace, a known ref baiter for his entire career from getting a ring. I think Sheed knew it because after the game he went to the refs' locker room and was banging on the door demanding to talk to them. He retired after that season, knowing that the refs wouldn't allow him another ring. For another example, just look at this past season's playoffs. Marc Davis made some of the most horrible calls I've ever seen against the Celtics in the 2012 playoffs. He continued to make terrible calls until it reached a boiling point for Rajon Rondo who bumped him while protesting a particularly egregious call right after one almost as bad just before. Rondo was ejected for the next game but it was Davis who should have been ejected for his unprofessionalism and incompetence. The officiating in the 2012 playoffs was among the worst I have seen and it wasn't just me. There were fans of every team complaining about the terrible calls. In some games it was obvious, like the Thunder/Lakers game where the Lakers shot 41 free throws to keep them in the series. Other times it wasn't quite as obvious as an entire game called one sided but there were bad calls at crucial times. Possibly the fact that Bantom was a player and knows the frustrations of being called for phantom fouls or playing a game five on eight will give him the perspective to make changes in the way things are done. But then again, he still has to report to Herr Stern and so I won't hold my breath.

"It doesn't matter how many times I step on the ice at the Bell Centre, I have the same feeling every time: my head's ready to explode, I want to kill somebody cutting across the blue line and I want to score the goal and celebrate. And I'll do it by any means possible to win a hockey game. That's how I feel playing there. I'm not sure I'd have that feeling anywhere else."
– Defenceman P.K. Subban
MONTREAL — Canadiens fans, famously impatient, have for now stored their torches and pitchforks.
They've called off any protest march through the downtown core; abandoned their petition plans.
But fans' unrest over the P.K. Subban Saga — it's gone on so long, it deserves a proper title — is quieter only for now, the Canadiens' encouraging 4-1 victory over Florida on Tuesday cause for a heartbeat's celebration.
Defenceman Andrei Markov scored twice on a come-to-life power play, a special team that went 1-for-5 in Saturday's season-opening 2-1 loss to Toronto and looked pretty disorganized doing so.
The "P.K.! P.K.!" chants weren't overpowering Saturday, but they did ring through the Bell Centre's upper reaches late in the game, Subban's presence requested.
But until further notice, the 23-year-old won't be pulling on a Canadiens jersey. Some suggest he might never again.
Subban's agent, Don Meehan, said Wednesday that he expects to have talks with Habs general manager Marc Bergevin before week's end in a bid to move the file along.
"Subject to that meeting," Meehan said cryptically, "we'd be in a position of being more defined than we are now."
Talks would not have more or less urgency based on Canadiens wins and losses, this contract far more important to everyone than a few games. And Meehan said that neither Subban nor the Canadiens are in the driver's seat in negotiations.
"The most professional opinion is that no one should be in the driver's seat," he said. "This should be in the best interests of everyone concerned."
Naturally, there is no shortage of so-called expert analysis and "insider" information being spouted on the Internet, much of it outrageous, regarding how many dollars and years separate the Canadiens and their popular young defenceman from getting their names on a contract.
Here's the reality, and what from the very beginning has been the gulf between the two since their first discussions back into last May:
Subban wishes to be paid what he believes he's worth to his team, on and off the ice, preferably but not necessarily linked to a long-term deal, and the Canadiens are seemingly inflexible with their plan to offer short term, a bridge or gap contract toward something more lucrative down the road, almost a policy that has been applied in the recent past with Carey Price and Max Pacioretty.
There are syllables, not sentences or paragraphs, being uttered for consumption by both sides in this debate. Neither Bergevin nor Meehan — skilled, poker-faced negotiators — are wearing mirrored glasses lest anyone see their cards.
Bergevin said at the news conference announcing his hiring that one of his primary goals was to get Subban under contract. He has reiterated in recent days that he is not interested in trading the rearguard, whom he says is part of the team's plans.
While cyberspace is abuzz with rumours of offer sheets and trade scenarios, Meehan said Wednesday, "Our focus for the time being is (negotiating with) the Montreal Canadiens."
The Habs and Camp Subban have been talking contract in various forms since shortly before last spring. There was hope a deal would be struck before the 119-day lockout, declared Sept. 16, shut down all communication between teams and players.
Any work achieved by both sides did not, however, have them anywhere near the cusp of agreement when the CBA was approved in the wee hours of Jan. 6.
There have been discussions between Bergevin and Meehan since that day, the new CBA offering both men clear direction, even a face-to-face meeting in Toronto the day before the Canadiens hit the ice for training camp on Jan. 13.
But we've been at a stalemate, the restricted free agent Subban parked on a siding awaiting something — anything — that will get him back on the ice.
In a Canadiens jersey, or perhaps that of another team.
"It's come down to this — I want to be paid what I'm worth," Subban told me in a lengthy talk this week.
The on-the-record portion of our conversation was about philosophies, not hard numbers of term and dollars; he pays Meehan to negotiate those details and, like both his agent and Bergevin, he wouldn't publicly lift the veil on the fine print.
Industry comparables have been tabled, statistics of defencemen stacked on a scale as part of the equation. The Canadiens apparently are not disputing any comparables served to them, but are sticking to a short-term deal.
There are important intangibles to be considered, too, Subban's popularity with fans and his marketing value to the club strong among them.
A veteran of 160 regular-season and 21 playoff games, he is one of his team's elite defencemen who has been used in every situation; at 24:18 per game average, he led all Canadiens rearguards in ice-time last season.
Not Subban nor Meehan nor Bergevin will confirm the dollars or term either side is offering. But the website habseyesontheprize.com, a lucid voice that offers exhaustive, balanced analysis of the Subban case, lists no fewer than six dozen NHL defencemen of less impact (in their view) who annually earn more than $3 million.
For now, Subban remains at home in Toronto, working out and skating, hoping and wondering.
"I don't even know what to think any more," he said. "At this point, you have to remain optimistic (and realize) it is a business, and a lot of things can happen.
"I hope (a trade) is not the case. I want to play for the Canadiens. I want to help the team. With the young players we have in the organization right now, we still have a great opportunity to win.
"But for my style of game and for what I do for the team, the amount of minutes I play and for what I bring to the table, I have to be fairly compensated."
Subban watched Saturday's Bell Centre season-opener against the Maple Leafs from his home in Toronto. He imagined himself skating out to centre ice to hold the ceremonial torch aloft; he could practically feel the arena's roar in his chest.
"There's no way you could be at home or at the building, watching the introduction and not getting chills down your spine and wanting to be playing in that game," he said. "It was unbelievable to watch.
"We're not trying to rob the bank here (in contract talks). We're not reinventing anything. We're not holding a gun to the Canadiens' head saying, 'Pay us this or we're walking away.' We just want to be compensated for what I'm worth."
Subban catalogues maybe a half-dozen names of young players who are being handsomely paid, and you'd be stretching the truth if you suggested they mean more to their teams than Subban means to the Canadiens.
"You know I have confidence in myself. I do," he said. "But I'm realistic. I've approached this situation totally as a professional. I would have tried everything in my power to make sure it wouldn't have got to this point.
"But there are just some things that I can't control. I've left this in Donnie's hands to kind of get through it. I hope that playing against the Leafs (in Game 82 last April 7) wasn't the last time I wore a Habs jersey. I hope I can wear it for many more years."
Some will argue that Subban should take a two-year, $5.1-million contract just signed by New York Rangers defenceman Michael Del Zotto, 22, whose statistics aren't far removed from Subban's but whose situation isn't remotely similar.
But that's a ridiculous comparable. Del Zotto isn't a prime defenceman on the Rangers depth chart, not a No. 1 or No. 2 rearguard expected to play monster minutes, almost always against the opponent's top line, while being flown from the team's tallest flagpole in community and marketing endeavours.
If offer sheets or trade scenarios have come across Meehan's desk, Subban doesn't know about them. But …
"You'd have to think that at some point, everybody will get so worn down by the situation," he said. "If it drags on and leaves a bitter taste in everyone's mouth …
"I've never been through this process before but it can be tough at times. You'd have to think this thing would end sooner than later."
Subban never expected he'd win a landslide victory in the court of public opinion. He is not with his team heading into Thursday's third game of a 48-game schedule and he knows there are fans disappointed, and worse, that he's not in uniform.
"I didn't expect this to be an all P.K. parade. I didn't expect everyone to jump on my bandwagon to give me whatever I want," he said. "It's business and I understand that. But I've accomplished a lot in two years. If I hadn't, we wouldn't be talking, would we? This thing probably would have been over long ago.
"I've accomplished a lot for someone who's only 23. I'm playing in one of the best markets in the NHL. To me, it seems like a pretty easy situation: you have a guy who wants to be there, for a long time, who actually thrives on playing in the pressure of Montreal. I don't think there could be any more pressure than what I've had playing here the last two years.
"I still have a lot to learn and I've never denied that. I don't think there's any reason for anyone to think that I believe I know it all and that I'm not going get any better. I've been up front about that.
"In every single game I've never ever made it seem that I've accomplished exactly what I've wanted to," Subban said. "I've never been complacent, I've never been content. I've always wanted to be more.
"For 82 games, win or lose, I've shown up every single night to play hockey. That's the one thing I know my teammates will say. They may say, "P.K. is doing this or doing that,' but at the end of the day I show up to play every night. Every night. And that's why the fans react the way they do to me."
Subban laughs as he forges on: "As much as I'd like to think it's because of my good looks, it's not. It's because I come to play every night with that passion and grit and intensity and fire that those same fans bring to the rink to watch the game. That's all they want to see. I've been able to give that to them for two years."
Subban barely comes up for air as we speak:
"It comes down to this: I'm 23, and at some point I will be playing hockey again. I hope it's in Montreal because I really and truly want to win there, more than anywhere else in the NHL.
"Do I see myself playing for any other team? From a business standpoint, I'm sure there are other teams where I could fit in and be a big part of things moving forward, give them a chance to win. But ultimately, deep down inside, I want to play for the Montreal Canadiens.
"I want to be a big part of them. It's my bloodline. That's all I knew growing up. My dad was the biggest Habs fan. And I think that's something you don't let go."
Subban's passion is stoked during a nearly hour-long talk. Family voices are in the background; he's enjoying the time with them but he knows there's somewhere else he should be.
"One thing I'm not worried about is the fans," he said. "When I step on the ice, I can play the game of hockey and I think I'm pretty good at it. I'm confident fans will be there when I have to be there. I'm not worried about extra pressure. I don't think a raise of expectations of me is possible. Since I came into the league, I don't think they could get any higher.
"I worked so hard over the summer to get myself in shape and now I'm in the best shape in my life. I wanted to put that to good use and looks like I might have to wait a little while before I get a chance to do that. Hopefully, it's not too much longer.
"I'm just sorry that it's gotten to this point."

We just opened up a whole new dimension in entertainment. OAKLEY 3D GASCAN® is the first optically correct 3D eyewear ever made. Use it in any movie theater that has RealD®, the 3D system used in the majority of cinemas around the world. This is the "Oakley" of 3D eyewear so it gives you the ultimate in clarity, comfort and performance, and all that adds up to the ultimate 3D experience.
With ordinary 3D eyewear, there can be ghosting or "crosstalk" between the images that reach each eye from one moment to the next. Inferior 3D lenses can also diminish clarity and fidelity, causing subtle distortions that cheat you out of the full entertainment experience. Lens glare can be an annoying distraction, and your perception of colors can be altered. The problems aren't limited to vision. Conventional 3D eyewear does not fit well, so comfort is a major issue.
Oakley has applied its decades of innovation to achieving a new benchmark in 3D eyewear. HDO-3D™ technology allows us to create lens curvature that maximizes your field of vision for a full panoramic view. As the world's first optically correct 3D eyewear, OAKLEY 3D GASCAN gives your eyes sharp images that are true and accurate. What it doesn't do is make images appear magnified or shifted like conventional 3D eyewear.
With Oakley 3D eyewear, problems like ghosting and glare are virtually eliminated. Color perception is more accurate, so you'll see what the director had in mind for every shot. Your vision will be clear and accurate, and with an Oakley engineered frame, you know you'll have the most comfortable fit possible. All those benefits come with the quality, durability and style you expect from a world leader in eyewear technology.
If you want to get the full 3D experience, get the best 3D eyewear. It's OAKLEY 3D GASCAN and it brings a whole new dimension to 3D entertainment.
Optical Clarity:
With HDO-3D™, your vision is razor sharp and accurate. In fact, Oakley 3D GASCAN® is the first on the planet to have optically correct 3D lenses. Ordinary non-prescription lenses can distort your vision by magnifying images and making objects appear shifted from their true position. HDO-3D™ virtually eliminates these kinds of visual distortion.
Truer Alignment of 3D Images:
Inferior 3D lenses can result in "ghosting" or "crosstalk" between the images that reach each eye from one moment to the next. These annoying visual artifacts can ruin your entertainment experience. HDO-3D™ lenses achieve the 3D effect with precision and efficiency to ensure truer alignment of images, virtually eliminating crosstalk, so you will get the most out of the 3D experience.
Truer Colors:
Some 3D lenses can subtly change your perception of colors, diminishing the fidelity of what the director intended for the movie. HDO-3D™ lenses offer an uncompromising level of color fidelity so you will see what the director had in mind for every shot.
Better Light Management:
Reflections and glare can ruin a 3D entertainment experience. HDO-3D™ lenses have cylindrical base curvature that virtually eliminates reflections and glare, unlike "flatter" 3D lenses that fail to address the problem. Thanks to HDO-3D™, Oakley can offer the world's first 3D lenses with high-wrap curvature.
Optimized Durability:
The disposable 3D glasses in movie theaters are fragile and the lenses are easily scratched. HDO-3D™ lenses are made of a material that resists scratches, and with Oakley eyewear, you are getting a level of durability that comes from decades of innovation.
Use this unique rendition of Oakley 3D GASCAN® in any RealDmovie theater.
Please note that Oakley 3D glasses are optimized for indoor cinema application and are not intended for outdoor use. Due to their transmission profile (light and UV), glasses utilizing 3D polarization technology are not ideal for normal daily outdoor use and will not provide the same level of protection as sunglasses.

I recently got a S10 4333-36U and will be upgrading. While looking for normal upgrades (RAM and SSD) I found the Mini PCI-E slot is empty due to lack of 3G Wirless. Being the way I am I wanted to use the space to make the system better any way I can. I am satisfied for storage, but the graphic ability is lacking (respectively). I found this device to enhance video (BROADCOM BCM970012 HD DECORDER MINI PCI-E CARD). Anyone use this device yet? I am not 100% on this before I buy one. If anyone is able to discuss this I would love to hear feedback.
I am sorry did not see there was a topic about this, moderator can delete this.

Abilene Drive-In Theatre Raises Money For Digital
By: Matt Torres
Updated: October 29, 2012
Abilene drive-in theatre Town & Country is trying to make that switch, but costs have been expensive for the company. The goal to make the transition will cost more than $150,000, and the owners and workers are seeking the help from Big Country residents.
The D-cinema projector required to provide sharper and brighter picture and will also cost less to produce. Regardless, small town theaters are looking for ways to raise the money.
Town & Country is hosting fundraisers, and accepting donations and sponsorships online for anyone interested in contributing. They say that 'to save the Drive-in from going dark, we must work swiftly and diligently'.
To help support Town & Country Drive-In Theatre:

text: In order for this project to continue to grow, I have implemented a nominal $5/month subcription fee to access the Chamorro Roots Genealogy Project database. This fee can be paid through the Tendan Hale' Chamoru link. For Registered Users, there will be a one-time 7-day trial subscription granted automatically with new registrations. This trial offer is also to allow newly registered users the opportunity to experience the difference between the 'Demo Database' and the live database. Once the 7-day trial period has expired you will only have access to the Demo Database that has very limited features. I highly recommend taking advantage of and subscribing to the 'Chamorro Roots Library' subcription option, since its for one-year access and includes viewing the digital files available on this site for $60/year. However, this fee is not prorated like the monthly subscription that is also only limited to accessing the database and not the digital archives. I believe these subscription fees are nominal and quite reasonable compared to the other commercially available genealogy sites. I appreciate your understanding and support to this upcoming change. If you have any question please feel free to contact me. Si Yu'os Ma'ase, si Bernard Punzalan |

OTTAWA — The 911 call came in late Tuesday night: a man said he'd shot and killed his father and was going to kill himself.
Then contact with the 911 operator was lost.
Police and paramedics responded to 3204 Pierce Rd. near North Gower at about 10:20 p.m., Ottawa police said, and were soon joined by tactical officers.
By about midnight, tactical officers and paramedics gained access to the small white farmhouse where they found the bodies of Jim Thomasing and his son Peter.
On Wednesday morning, a patrol car blocked off access to the isolated property along Pierce Road, a 2.5-kilometre cul-de-sac off Malakoff Road south of Roger Stevens Drive in the city's rural south end. The small house and nearby red barn are surrounded by snow-covered fields.
Neighbours said Thomasing, a retired science teacher with the Ottawa public school board, lived on the farm with his son.
One neighbour, who preferred to remain anonymous, said the son came to live at the farmhouse a few years ago after his father suffered a stroke.
"He seemed like a normal guy," one neighbour said of the father. "He farmed the land and had lived there for at least 20 years," said the neighbour who lives at the end of the cul-de-sac.
Joyce Thomasing, reached at her home in Alberta, said she was still trying to make sense of what happened between her son and ex-husband.
"I really just heard about it today, so I need some time to figure things out," she said.
Police have told her they are still gathering information and until she hears more she said it will be hard to know what to think.
"He was a loving son," she said of Peter.
Police said they didn't believe anyone else was involved in the deaths. After a reporter contacted Ontario's Special Investigations Unit, which investigates incidents of sexual assault, serious injuries or death in cases involving the police, the SIU invoked its mandate to look into the death of Peter Thomasing, 39.
The agency began its probe at about 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, SIU spokeswoman Monica Hudon said. Two investigators were assigned to the case, she said.
Brian Doyle, who was a teacher Glebe Collegiate at the same time as Thomasing, remembered Thomasing as a "highly respected teacher."
"He seemed to be very together," said Doyle. "He was popular."
Cliff Savage, another former languages teacher at Glebe, said he hadn't seen Thomasing in 20 or 30 years but that he kept up on how he was doing through a mutual friend.
"I knew his son was living with him."
As a teacher, Savage said, Thomasing was "competent. I wouldn't call him strict, but he meant business. He didn't take any fooling around."

the noonday story
After visiting Uganda in February of 2010 and holding hundreds of children without moms and dads, Joe and Jessica Honegger (the founder) decided to adopt internationally (from Rwanda). Also on that visit, they met up with long time friends who had lived in Uganda for many years trying to create sustainable income opportunities for the Ugandan people. They asked Jessica if she would like to sell the fair-trade locally made goods in Austin, in order to raise money for the costly adoption process. Jessica agreed and the first Noonday Collection trunk show was born! You can read more about her story here.
Word spread quickly about Noonday's envied products and the lives they impact. Other women wanted to style their friends while advocating for women and kids. Soon, the opportunity for women to start their own social selling business with a social impact launched and the Ambassador opportunity was born. Noonday Collection will soon be found in a home near you!
At Noonday Collection, we believe every child belongs in a family. While the owner is no longer raising money for their Rwandan adoption (though they think more adoptions will come), the vision remains the same. We advocate for the orphan by:
- Providing jobs that create a pathway out of poverty for families. A stable income means a family is less likely to abandon their child.
- Help families raise money for their own adoptions. We give 10% of trunk show sales directly to the adoptive family when they host a trunk show.
- Aside from donating 10% towards qualified adoptive families, Noonday Collection also gives towards orphan care and prevention. Watch the video to see one of our beneficiaries.
- The dream: Take YOU on a trip to visit artisans and visit orphans in their distress.
Ready to make a difference? HOST A TRUNK SHOW
Our passion at Noonday Collection is to connect you with the lives of artisans struggling for a better future while styling you along the way. Fashion and design are a vehicle for opportunity and change. You, too, can be a voice for the oppressed!

A Rockingham native is back in town and has opened a law firm and hopes to promote young athletes in the area.
Bellonora F. McCallum is the founder and managing member of McCallum Enterprises, Inc., and McCallum Law Firm, PLLC. She specializes in Sports and Entertainment Law with an emphasis in financial management.
McCallum grew up in a close-knit family environment characterized by high morals and a focus on education and entrepreneurship. McCallum's fondest memories include her grandmother's home-cooked Sunday dinners followed by watching football with her family. It was during these football games where the men in her family would engage in heated debates thus imposing their knowledge of the game on McCallum and sparking her interest in sports. This interest morphed into a passion that ignited her chosen practice area.
"We've had a few NFL players come out of Richmond County," said McCallum. "I would love to be a part of that. I want to make sure I'm out there for North Carolinians."
McCallum earned her Bachelor's Degree in Accounting from North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University and her Juris Doctorate and Masters in Business Administration from North Carolina Central University. She has been a practicing attorney for four years and has also gained valuable years of experience in finance and accounting. Her coursework involved extensive research and work in accounting, business, and legal studies. Her work experience has entailed employment with the Mecklenburg County District Attorney's Office, Small Business Technical Development Center, and in the Financial Department of the Central Intelligence Agency and the Honeywell Corporation.
"Right now my practice is my main focus," said McCallum. "I've been spending my everyday life in the courtroom."
McCallum is also working with her cousin Timothy McCallum, the writer of six scripts which are being evaluated for the potential of turning into movies.
According to www.mccallumenterprise.com, Timothy McCallum graduated from T. W. Andrews High School in 1996. At this point, he derailed from his dream of writing and decided to obtain a higher education. In June 2004, Timothy resigned as Youth President and moved to Charlotte, N.C., to seek a college degree in communication. Though this may have been important some, his devotion in writing eventually took precedence. As time went by, he was once again reunited with two individuals that played a major role in his childhood as a friend and family, who happens to be the season four "American Idol" and Grammy award winner Fantasia Barrino and upcoming recording artist Aseelah Battles. Timothy desire as a writer had increasingly intensified once he and Fantasia collectively wrote a screenplay called "Cicely is Evil." During the process of writing this melodrama, he also starred as a friend on Fantasia's VH1 reality show, "Fantasia for Real." Since then Timothy has written several scripts such as a romantic comedy "Buttons," and "Nephew" which is based on a true story of a tragic loss of his nephew.
McCallum Law Firm, PLLC is located at 110 S. Hancock St. in Rockingham and can be reached by calling 910-422-9511 or by email to email@example.com.
— Staff Writer Dawn M. Kurry can be reached at 910-997-3111, ext. 15, or by email at email@example.com.

4. | come to jesus | ||
v. To acquire Christianity as one's religion "Yeah, Christina was such a sinner 'til she came to Jesus."
1. | come to jesus | ||
Getting called on the carpet, dressed down, or otherwise chewed out in a severe manner. Usually used in conjunction with "meetin'" (meeting) He was late one too many times, so the old man dragged him in the office for a "come to jesus meetin'".
2. | come to jesus | ||
Used in the film "Flight of the Intruder" in the court-martial scene. To not necessarily use religion and tell the truth. Repentance, but without religious overtone. from "Flight of the Imtruder":
"I hope you realize that now is the time to come to Jesus." Meaning that if the aircrew being court-martialed spilled their guts off the record before the proceeding started, they might stand a better chance of a favorable opinion. Could somewhat be compared to plea bargaining. |
3. | come to jesus | ||
Command usually shouted from the pulpit at an evangelical Christian revival. "Those who are sinners and want to be saved, Come to Jesus! He will save you, just Come to Jesus!"
5. | come to jesus | ||
when a religious person realizes a non-religious (or religious) person is in need of God's love and help, they say this to tell them to come over to christianity (or to re-find God).
Also could be something said in the bed, if ya know what I mean ... 1. James, you suicide! Come to Jesus!
2. Oh, baby, come to Jesus, COME TO JESUS! |
6. | come to jesus | ||
When a person masturbates in front of a picture of jesus. "Where'd Billy go?"
"I just saw him walking into the bathroom with a joho book, guess he's gonna come to jesus." |
7. | come to jesus | ||
December 12, 2008 Urban Word of the Day
Originally an emotional experience that is life changing, it has evolved to mean a serious argument, one that better result in a change of action or else. My husband and I are going to have a "come to jesus" over this remodeling job.
or I'm going to have a "come to jesus" with that kid about his drinking and partying. |

A fight broke out after a Milwaukee man who struck and killed a boy with his car in April was sentenced to one year in prison and one year probation Wednesday morning.
Caution: Video above may contain strong language
Dedrick Ashford, 23, pleaded guilty to striking and killing 6-year-old Christopher Wade on April 21.
The collision occurred near the intersection of 51st Street and Meinecke Avenue.
According to the criminal complaint, Ashford told police he knew he was driving without a license and had smoked marijuana a few hours before he got behind the wheel.
Not long before the outburst, Wade's mother spoke to the man for the first time.
"The day Dedrick took him from me, he took away way more than my child, he took away my life," Wade's mother, Shalesa Darby, said.
"I wasn't supposed to be behind the wheel, and I take responsibility for my actions, so hopefully that goes a long way," Ashford said.
According to WISN 12 News reporter Hillary Mintz, Wade's family was disgusted with the one-year sentence and began screaming and yelling.
The melee spilled into the hallway outside of the courtroom, where several people were eventually arrested, and some were injured. The Sheriff's Department said three people are in custody.

If you live in a zone that can grow them, Rough Blazing Stars are just amazing at attracting Monarchs.
I know they are native to the Wisconsin, Michigan and Illinois prairies, but there are probably more states where they grow. The plants can be purchased at retail outlets that carry native plants.
I have several of them and it never ceases to amaze me when I go out and see 4, 5, even 6 Monarchs on a blooming plant.

Race Across America with Christoph Strasser
Apr 26th 2012 by proThe Race Across America [RAAM] is the antithesis to the Grand Tours featured in glossy magazines. Instead of the surging peloton and the high-intensity stages, RAAM is a meditative contest that delves deep into human psyche to push the very limits of the body and mind.
If we dissect the history of sporting it's evident that behind strategy is an inherent honesty in the physical. Whereas modern sports are consumed by arbitrary limitations ranging from the rather onerous round-by-round judging system of martial arts to the four swim styles competing in the Olympics, there still exists an event that embodies this honesty.
The RAAM's reason for being is to deliver one answer: how quickly can a person traverse the United States? Participants in the event cannot be described with superficial words like: fast, or good, or even strong. Their vocabulary is of a heavier – more brutal – stock: endurance, fortitude, willpower. These are the words that describe a persons character, because that is the requirement to even compete in the Race Across America. Racers are expected to race around the clock for 3000 miles, winners have slept as little as 1 hour a night and completed the course in as few as 8 days. Compare this to the 2500 mile – 3 week Tour de France and you can see why Christoph Strasser may be the greatest endurance cyclist in the world.

August 8 |
In 1945, the Potsdam Agreement was agreed a week later than expected because Ukrainian nationalists murdered General Secretary Stalin en-route to the Conference.
Stalin killed on eve of the Potsdam Conference
by Ed & Scott PalterOf course this act of terrorism dramatically changed the calculations of the four principle Allied powers. And although post-war security arrangements had been tentatively discussed, a more favourable climate was now in place to devise the conditions for a more stable, robust quadrapartite agreement. A re-assessment was to be expected since the three primary heads of state had changed since the Yalta Agreement. But also, on the eve of the conference, President Truman learnt that the Trinity tests were running late due to technical problems.
The delay in developing a nuclear bomb meant that by early August, the Soviets were already advancing deep into Japanese territory. But not only did these "facts on the ground" provide General Secretary Beria with a stronger case for participating in Japanese occupation, another significant development had also occurred. It now appeared quite possible that a de-militirized but unified German State could be formed on the lines of Finland. This heightened level of confidence led to the US Leadership being far more willing to let the Soviets in. Also, it built upon the German model of finding global security solutions through the Grand Alliance, and therefore establishing a de facto American protectorate in Japan would have been a unilateral step backwards. One final factor was that Truman much preferred to put in place civilian leadership than military governors, it was the deliberate step towards peace that he wanted the US to take. The peaceful partition of China was to prove him right.

I met Hazel & Thomas in Pasadena last weekend for their engagement portraits. I like to photograph engagement portraits in a place that means something to you, the couple, so I usually ask what you like to do together, where you go out, etc. Hazel and Thomas came armed with an answer before I could even ask. They love to browse the grocery store and look around, maybe visit the in house Starbucks, and sometimes pick out something to make for dinner together. They took the initiative to get permission for our shoot from their local Vons , and I was so appreciative! It's great when the couple helps out like that, and has an idea they are passionate about! The people at Vons were more then helpful, and very sweet and congratulatory to Hazel and Thomas during out shoot.
We started with a stroll outside first, and then moved inside Vons. Hazel and Thomas were non stop giggles. I'd like to take credit for the laughs and smiles, but I'm not that funny (except to myself). They clearly have a great time together! I am so excited for their wedding later this fall.
Hazel's sister Lindsay is a hair and make up artist, and did Hazel's styling for the shoot. She did a great job, and even stayed for the shoot so she could do any needed touch ups. She was a great help!
Enjoy the photos, and let me know what you think in the comments.

The feedback is that the first US Codegarden was a huge success. With about 30 participants it was two days packed full of learning, sharing, and fun. Umbraco v4 highlighted by Niels and Per in the opening keynote set the tone with Umbraco firmly established as a robust CMS up to any task. We had sessions on topics ranging from using Flash with Umbraco, to running Umbraco on cloud-based computing platforms, and lots of great demos, discussions, and coding sessions.
Our Open Space sessions were well attended and the participation from all attendees was fantastic. We've created a book to hold the session output here.
A tradition at Codegarden is the package coding contest. We had entries ranging from an XSLT-extension for Commerce for Umbraco (the package also known as XSLT-Error) to complete site packages aimed at getting an Umbraco site running in just a few minutes. John took home the XBox prize for his node-based form generator.
A huge thanks from me, and all the Codegarden organizers, to everyone who came and participated.
See you at Codegarden in 2009!

@FinalFight, is your Resistance 3 fix newer than the others?
I've tried both the 'Geohot' v2 fix after you install just the OFW 1.02 update and the 1.05 fix after you install all the 3.6 OFW updates and neither works. With the v2 fix I get various errors after the Move screen and with the 1.05 fix I just get a black screen.
I'm on 3.55 Kmeuw.
Also the Portal 2 fix where you install the fixed eboot, the fixed param.sfo plus a couple of bin directories doesn't work for me. Just bumps me back to the XMB. If I install the OFW update, i get a screen asking me to update to 3.60.
Also, I found the most of the fixes 'out there' for Kingdoms of Alamur didn't work. Only the fix that is named 'Kingdoms of Alamur Fix' seemed to work for me. Just putting that out there if anyone is struggling.

Ed, Edd, n Eddy was supposed to be a Nickelodeon cartoon.
These three musketeers lightened the childhood of many. Feeling "pigeon-holed" and "angst-ridden," Danny Antonccui created Ed Edd n Eddy was a tribute to hand-drawn cartoons in the 1950's.
He based the three characters on himself and the activities of his two sons. It has also been noted that they hold personality traits of the Three Stooges. He spent months designing the show, and shopped it to Nickelodeon.
But after they demanded creative control, he refused and took it to Cartoon Network, who were quick to accept it. Cartoon Network wanted him to show them more of his work, but decided to let him go at his own pace.
A smart move, considering that the show as won and been nominated for various Leo, Reuben, and Kids' Choice Awards.

The Super Soup-er Bowl Wins Hearts In Cumberland
By: Patricia Martellotti
Updated: February 1, 2013
CUMBERLAND, MD - As the city train traveled through town, so did truck loads of food.
It's called the Super Soup-er Bowl, and although it has nothing to do with a football championship, this benefit is winning the hearts of many at the Union Rescue Mission in Cumberland.
"We are so excited to help the mission. We've been gathering food donations. Mostly we are striving to get soup donations. Things for the rescue mission to make soup," says Donna Stivala, founder of the Super Soup-er Bowl benefit.
The Union Rescue Mission is the only homeless shelter in five counties; including Allegany and Garrett County.
The shelter will use the canned vegetables and dried beans to make a hot bowl of soup for many.
Stivala says this year City Hall, Walmart, eight schools and some 37 churches donated canned goods in record breaking numbers.
"Incredibly, five and a half tons of food got donated! Last year four tons got donated so it's a wonderful collaborative effort from our community. It's Cumberland's gift to the Union Rescue Mission," says Stivala.
In addition, the community sent enough money for the mission to purchase a new griddle and exhaust fan, something the mission has needed for some time.
A winning community helping others one soup bowl at a time.

For the past month, he's been pulling double duty as the Purple Devils' head football and softball coach.
The Lady Purple Devils' final practice before meeting up with South Lamar in the AHSAA Class 1A North Central regional tournament at Liberty Park was set for a 5 p.m. start. That's right after Ragland's spring football practice.
"It's been tough juggling the two," Nix said. "It really has. But both teams and all the coaches understand."
Nix, who has guided the top-ranked Lady Purple Devils to two consecutive state championships, took over for former Ragland football coach Brian Mintz about a month ago. Mintz retired back in January to focus on raising his new daughter, 17-month old MeiLeigh, whom he and his wife Kim adopted from China early last football season.
"We'd been in the process of adopting for nearly six years. So it made sense and it happened to be timely," Mintz said of his retirement.
Mintz spent 27 seasons in the coaching profession, including 11 at Ragland. The Mintzes brought up their three sons, Matthew (24), Michael (21) and John Mark (19). Mintz said he and his wife felt God led them to adopt.
They wanted an infant but ran into difficulties adopting an American child due to their age.
"It's an opportunity to give back some of the many riches we've been we've been blessed with," Mintz said.
Mintz said he's certain that Ragland's football team, which he guided to an appearance in the Class 1A state semifinals where they lost to eventual state champion Marion County, is in good hands.
Nix was a head football coach at Class 3A Ashville for three years before coming to Ragland three years ago. He shared the defensive coordinating responsibilities with Rush Rutledge, Ragland's head girls basketball coach, before being hired as the head football coach.
He was named the Class 1A Assistant Coach of the Year by the Alabama High School Football Coaches Association, Mintz said.
The Lady Purple Devils have won 11 of their last 11, heading into their matchup against No. 3 South Lamar. The game is a rematch between two teams which squared off against each other in the first round of the regional tournament and the final of the state tournament last year.
Jacksonville Christian faces No. 5 Lynn to open the regional tournament. Faith Christian will open up with Meek in the double elimination affair. The tournament also includes second-ranked Parrish.
"We play the regional like it's the state tournament," Nix said. "We believe the 1A state champion is going to come out of the North Central regional."
His teams' ability to tunnel its focus on the game ahead has been what's led Nix to believe they can pull off a three-peat.
"They do a good job of staying in the moment," he said "Each year, me and Rush say, 'Well, they won it last year, how are we going to motivate them this year?'. But they're goal-oriented and they want it."
They've added another big bat to their lineup in the form of 1A Player of the Year Emily Church. Church returned from a knee injury that kept her out since basketball season. They won't have shortstop Madison Oliver, an all-state performer. She tore her ACL in March and is still recovering from surgery.
"We've had some young kids step up," Nix said.
The Purple Devils key victories this season include Cherokee County Invitational tournament title. They defeated Oak Grove, ranked No. 5 in Class 4A, twice. They also won both games of a doubleheader against Lynn with a come-from-behind victory in the second game.
"You never really know what kind of team you have until they have to fight from behind to pull out a victory," Nix said.
Nix won't have to worry about not having anyone who can relate to his struggle as he transitions into his new role.
His assistants on the football staff include Rutledge, Andy Eden, Tim Chambless and Ryan McCoy, all of whom coach multiple sports. If the run Ragland sports has had this school year with the boys basketball team reaching the regional final, the girls hoops squad reaching the state semis and the baseball team advancing the second round is any indication, he should be fine.
"It's really about unity," Nix said. "Not one coach on any staff pulls a kid to the side and says, 'You should just play football' or 'You should just play baseball or basketball. We all help each other."

Breastfeeding Campaign
6 comments:
- AnonymousNovember 19, 2009 at 11:25 PM
I love these campaigns too ... but think that in many ways, breastfeeding advocates should also be fighting for longer mandated family leaves (12 months) for mothers. Realistically, it's very difficult for many women to continue to breastfeed once they return to work, an issue that not only affects babies, but also forces many women to choose between their babies and job security.
It's one thing to encourage women to breastfeed as long as possible; it's another to make it all the more possible for them to do so. These contact reduces of pandora jewerly diamonds includes; emerald cut diamond, marquise pandora bead cut and little princess minimize. These kind discount pandora of bright reduces for diamonds help pandora sale make those on the first class.One doesn't style, perfect discount pandora beads shine and charm.Women prefer usually jewelry coupled with cheap pandora beads introduced about wedding certainly new pandora beads they wish to have just this contact awkward pandora set most people believe that pandora sets there's basically no evaluation involving cheap pandora sets diamonds after all.
