Complex legal language changed to plain English by the company.
Tucson, AZ (PRWEB) February 13, 2013
Police.us.org has taken steps to simplify their public records reports to make it easier for their customers to understand, company officials said.
"We got a lot of calls from customers seeking clarification about what the records were actually telling them about the person they were doing a background check on," said company spokesman Josh Fraser. "We realized that these were questions that could be avoided if we changed up the structure of the reports themselves."
The main problem, Fraser said, was that people were having problems understanding if the person was a criminal, or simply someone who had gotten into a bad situation.
"There are three main types of records we provide – arrest information, conviction information, and warrant status," Fraser said. "All of those pieces of information mean completely different things, and people were becoming confused."
For example, Fraser said, someone could have an outstanding warrant simply for forgetting to pay a traffic ticket.
"That's a completely different type of situation than someone who has been convicted of fraud," Fraser said. "We also needed to make it clearer that there is a huge difference between someone being arrested for a crime and someone being convicted. Arrests are dropped for lack of evidence all the time."
The new reports will break down the information into three distinct sections, with explanations about what each type of report means.
"This should answer the most basic questions we've been receiving," Fraser said.
About Police.us.org:
For police records checks or warrant searches, Police.us.org is a reliable online resource. The nationwide police record check can find criminal history, police convictions, sex offender status and more. Police.us.org is a top choice for police records on the Internet.

Beauty Is Embarassing
BEAUTY IS EMBARASSING is a funny, irreverent, joyful and inspiring documentary featuring the life and current times of one of America's most important artists, Wayne White. Raised in the mountains of Tennessee, Wayne White started his career as a cartoonist in New York City. He quickly found success as one of the creators of the TV show, Pee-wee's Playhouse, which led to more work designing some of the most arresting and iconic images in pop culture. Most recently, his word paintings, which feature pithy and often sarcastic text statements crafted onto vintage landscape paintings, have made him a darling of the fine art world. The documentary chronicles the vaulted highs and the crushing lows of a commercial artist struggling to find peace and balance between his work and his art. At its core, the film is a reminder that we should all follow our passion. It is those creative impulses that will lead us to where we need to go

I live life paradoxically. I fear pain yet seek it as it fuels the poet within me. I find delight in letting my mind fly and my feet explore, yet I am still tied down to the boundaries of reality.

Oh, and when nothing else makes sense to me, music does.

Frequently Asked Questions / Coping with Cancer / Nutrition During Treatment
Last Modified: September 14, 2008
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
I have been treated for the last 8 months for an invasive breast cancer (mastectomy and chemo). I am now on Tamoxifen and have been having quite the time with hot flashes. I have been reading about using flaxseed in your diet to help combat the hot flashes. I have found articles that are both pro and con on using flaxseed when you have breast cancer. What is your opinion? Thanks for your time!
Kathleen Gallagher, RD, LDN, Oncology Dietitian at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
In a study done by the Mayo Clinic on post-menopausal women without breast cancer or estrogen therapy, flaxseeds were shown to reduce the number of hot flashes but did not get rid of them altogether. The participants had 4 Tablespoons (TBSP) of ground flaxseed per day and showed a 50% decrease in the number of hot flashes and in their severity as well.
Flaxseeds eaten at these higher amounts can have a laxative effect. A serving size of 1-2 Tbsp would be more tolerable and appropriate, especially during Tamoxifen therapy. The whole flaxseeds must be ground to bring out the nutrients because our bodies cannot digest the tough outer shell. When eating the whole food as opposed to a flaxseed oil supplement, you also get the added benefit of fiber. Ground flaxseed can be mixed into yogurt, cereals, and baked products such as muffins and breads.
The Mayo Clinic is still researching the effect of flaxseeds for hot flashes in women taking Tamoxifen and no results are available at this time. The studies are being done to test if the weak form of estrogen contained in flaxseeds, called lignans, impedes the action of the Tamoxifen by blocking receptor sites on the cancer cells. So for the time being, it may be best to err on the side of caution and stick to the more tolerable serving size of 1-2 Tbsp of ground flaxseed a day.

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Marking Time
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The market is just marking time, Jim Cramer told "Mad Money" viewers Tuesday. He said the markets are digesting their gains and giving up just enough to rattle the traders, but not enough to shake out the true believers.
Cramer explained that pullbacks and reversals are a natural part of the stock market, as companies aren't rockets and don't take off in a straight line. This is great news for patient investors, he noted, as pullbacks often give investors great prices to buy in. It may seem counterintuitive, even against human nature, to buy into weakness when everyone else is selling, but that's exactly the right time to buy.
Take Apple(AAPL) , one of the market leaders and a stock Cramer owns for his charitable trust, Action Alerts PLUS. Cramer said that it wouldn't surprise him to see Apple retreat to as low as $560 a share. While that may seem like a huge move to novice investors, in percentage terms it's the same as a $65 stock pulling back to $55 a share, Cramer said.
The bears have plenty of reasons to hate this market, said Cramer, including the fact that the markets have had a big run, trading volumes remain low, the VIX volatility index remains anemic and gold has begun to rally. But the fact also remains that the worst-case scenarios in both Greece and Spain haven't materialized, meaning the end of the world just might not be now after all.
Executive Decision
In the "Executive Decision" segment, Cramer spoke with John Richels, president and CEO of Devon Energy(DVN) , an oil and natural gas producer whose shares have fallen 3% so far this year. Devon Energy is also an Action Alerts PLUS holding.
Richels admitted that Devon has seen some challenges this year, starting with an unseasonably warm winter that caused natural gas prices to plummet ever further followed by weakness in Canadian oil and natural gas liquids prices. He noted that oil prices are cyclical in nature and most of the challenges facing Devon are temporary. The company continues to focus on high-return projects, he said, and building its asset base.

Much has written about taking your abortives early as the earlier to take them, the better they work. There are some good reasons for this. If your headache isn't so severe, the medication has a better chance of working. If your headache starts out severe, it stops the pain process of reaching the state of "allodynia". Allodynia is the feeling of pain or discomfort from something that does not normally bother you. Some examples are avoiding brushing your hair when you have a headache because it bothers you or wearing necklaces drives you crazy. There are studies showing that once you get to the point that allodynia has developed, medications have a decreased chance of working.
Take your medications early when you don't have a chance to use alterative methods such as meditation, guided imagery, hypnosis, biofeedback. However, here are some tips to help you keep them close.
1. Keep your medications, at least one abortive, in your purse or wallet. Keep two tablets at all times. Restock them.
2. Buy a small pouch that hangs from your keychain and keep your medications in those.
3. Do not keep your medications in the car. Cars get very hot and very cold. These temperature extremes are not good for the stability of the medications.
4. If you keep injections with you, make sure you keep other needed supplies, such as alcohol pads with them. Also, know in advance where you can go to give yourself an injection or who could administer it to you in the event that you can't.
5. Have a small kit at home where your medications are kept. Make sure that someone else other than you knows what it looks like and where it is kept. If your headache is really bad, you aren't going to be able to think or speak clearly. Trying to explain to someone what your kit looks like and where it is kept requires too much effort at this time of pain! Saying something like "headache kit" versus "Please go to the bathroom and get the red bag underneath the counter and bring it back to me" is probably more than you can muster.
6. Make sure your headache kit is stocked. Opening that bag when you have a severe headache is not the time to find out you are out of medication. Believe me, I have gotten many calls in the middle of the night to refill medication. It can be avoided.
What helps you? Please share any tips that you have to make another migraineur's day go smoother.

BRATTLEBORO -- This week, a federal jury convicted a former fire district treasurer of embezzling more than $80,000.
On Thursday, 51-year-old Sherry Roebuck of Guilford was found guilty of stealing money from the Algiers Fire District No. 1 between November 2007 when she was hired as treasurer and her arrest in March 2011.
After the two-day trial, Judge J. Garvan Murtha granted that Roebuck would remain released on conditions pending her sentencing, which has yet to be scheduled.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Gregory Waples told the Reformer on Friday that although Roebuck is facing up to two decades in prison, her actual time to be served will most likely be far less.
"She's probably looking at between two to three years behind bars under the guidelines," Waples said. "The presumptive range is more realistic than the statutory maximum.
The fire district, which was established in 1993 and served roughly 90 residences in Guilford, was nearly bankrupted by Roebuck as she wrote numerous checks to herself totaling roughly $84,000 and cashed them at local banks.
Prior to being hired as the treasurer, Roebuck served as the assistant town clerk in Guilford.
When Roebuck took the stand, she admitted to the jury that she wrote all the checks to herself, some of which were for legitimate expenses but the others were for Herb Meyer, who served as the co-chairman of the fire district's prudential committee.
When asked if Meyer's alleged involvement could have any truth to it, Waples said, "The federal government doesn't believe there is any credible evidence to suggest Herb Meyer was involved in any embezzlement from the fire district at all. I told the jury during final arguments that this was simply a last minute diversion."
Meyer who serves as the current fire district's treasurer, told the Reformer he was angry when he heard what Roebuck had told the jury and that her false claims just further proved her lack of remorse.
Meyer said his title of treasurer is only as a "figurehead and watchdog" as the town of Guilford serves as the financial administrator.
Just before Roebuck's arrest, Meyer said he believed the situation had escalated in early 2011 and that delinquent payments were causing difficulties for the district.
"How could anybody do this to their neighbor? If she had said, 'I'm not making enough and I'm having a hard time,' we would have given her more money. It would have been cheaper for us in the long run," Meyer said.
For the last quarter of 2010, bills showed that only 16 ratepayers had sent in checks, Meyer said.
When the committee began investigating the source of its financial woes, Roebuck told them she couldn't handle the responsibility anymore and quit on March 15.
"She said, 'I'm too busy, I can't do this, I'll resign,'" Meyer said. "When she walked out, we opened up her computer, which was really our computer, and all the balances were zero ... there were no check stubs."
Although the fire district owns the sewer system in the village of Algiers, it contracts services through Brattleboro's water and sewer line.
About a month before Roebuck's resignation and arrest, the financial difficulties at the Algiers Fire District No. 1 had reached a point where the prudential committee contacted Brattleboro Town Manager Barbara Sondag and told her about the situation, fearful that the town of Brattleboro may start charging late fees.
Eventually the fire district was able to get back on its feet financially through the Vermont League of Cities and Towns, which reimbursed some of the money stolen by Roebuck.
Meyer said the VLCT, which acts as an insurance policy for municipalities, paid back roughly $80,000 to the fire district.
When Meyer heard what Roebuck's penalty could be, he agreed with the terms.
"It's pretty stiff but given the circumstances and that embezzlement has been rampant in the state for a while, it seems appropriate," he said. "It seems just."

Update on Shelter Dog Turned Rescue Animal
By: BCHP News Staff
Updated: February 6, 2013
Touchdown was picked up by his new owner at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport two weeks ago.
Since then, he's been undergoing training in the Georgia mountains as a search and rescue canine so he can become certified.
Before that, the chocolate lab had been calling the Stephens County Animal Shelter home.
"He's doing wonderful with her," says Kathy O'Shields of the Stephens Co. Humane society, "He just did helicopter training and wasn't scared at all, so he's passed that part and we hope he can pass all of his certifications to become a rescue dog.
Touchdown's new owner, who lives in Atlanta, saw his photo on the humane society's facebook page, fell in love him and decided to adopt him.

Small Wonk-Tangent
Doing some real research today, and ran across this helpful observation: The Blind Man (men) of Jericho move from the exit to the entrance in Luke. Since we know Luke is using Mark, the question is: why the change?
First, Luke inserts the two stories Lk 19.1-10 (Zacchaeus) and Lk 19.11-28 (Minas) between his use of a Markan sequence (Mk 10.13-11.10). Second, Zacchaeus takes place inside Jericho, not allowing Jesus to arrive and depart immediately. But since, he moves the Blind Man to the entrance of Jericho and exits via the Parable of the Minas, we can conclude that Luke (or an earlier source) sees a very necessary link in the narrative sequence from the Zacchaeus' story to the Minas (as 19.11 suggests). What do you think this could be? Any other thoughts on the synoptic comparison below?
(Matthew 20:29-34 ESV) | (Mark 10:46-52 ESV) | (Luke 18:35-43 ESV) | |
And as they went out of Jericho, a great crowd followed him. And behold, there were two blind men sitting by the roadside, and when they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out, "Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!" The crowd rebuked them, telling them to be silent, but they cried out all the more, "Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!" And stopping, Jesus called them and said, "What do you want me to do for you?" They said to him, "Lord, let our eyes be opened." And Jesus in pity touched their eyes, and immediately they recovered their sight and followed him. |
And they came to Jericho. And as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a great crowd, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the roadside. And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more,
As he drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. And hearing a crowd going by, he inquired what this meant. They told him, "Jesus of Nazareth is passing by." And he cried out, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" And those who were in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more,
"Son of David, have mercy on me!" And Jesus stopped and commanded him to be brought to him. And when he came near, he asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?" He said, "Lord, let me recover my sight." And Jesus said to him, "Recover your sight; your faith has made you well." And immediately he recovered his sight and followed him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God. |

Gandalf, Nightwolf, Zombie Geo, and Nick Fury reviewed.
October 30, 2012, 07:16:51 AM »
Orignally posted
So Nick Fury and Gandalf are a weird combination, but with things being as they are I happened upon these two at the same time so I figured why not review them together. In the process of writing this review I got a couple of other oddities, so we will call Nightwolf and Undead Geo the Odd Couple the Next Generation. That way they all fit together.
To say 1:18th scale collecting has been very tough this year is a but of an understatement, it's down right sucks. I know I sound like a broken record, but those lights at the end of the tunnel do tend to seem farther and farther away.
As such some reviews are kind of screwy, here is one. Avengers, Mortal Kombat, Star Wars and The Hobbit probably have as much in common as Frank Sinatra and Kurt Cobain. Still both have 1:18th scale lines and they are here, so why not review them at once instead of in separate reviews, right?
When I was a kid, I always thought Nick Fury was the bad guy. I suppose it was because in most of his appearances that I saw he was ordering the Avengers around and they were like "Uh, No." Still I eventually grew up to realize Nick was a good guy, then Marvel exiled him over and over and over to make him look like a bad guy. In recent years Nick was ousted from SHIELD (again) and forced to go rouge. Shame as it's an idea that has been done to death (See Nick Fury Vs. SHIELD sometime). Today we have Samuel L Jackson playing the part, which is cool. Of course this follows the Ultimate continuity which means Nick is no longer white. Why? Who knows, but for whatever reason Ultimate Marvel decided to change Nick's race. Still if it gets us Samuel L. Jackson so I dig it.
Right off the bat I'm going to go with my one complaint about this figure, NO WRIST ARTICULATION. I'm not sure why Hasbro left it out because he has everything else most of the modern figures have. Especially when you consider most of the figure was borrowed from Winter Soldier from last years Captain America line (which did shockingly contain wrist articulation). Winter also had a shoulder holster that came along with Nick. It works although not functional. He also comes with the exact same pistol Winter Solder came with, good ol' Hasbro being che-er-saving on costs.
So the borrowing gives Nick everything including Ankles, Torso, and double knees. Funny to hear me say I missed the mid-torso joint but since Winter Soldier does hide it well due to his mold so it works with Nick as well. I never really minded the torso joint itself, just the weird line it left in the figure.
Unlike his Iron Man 2 figure this time Nick gets a plastic coat. I admit, I normally like soft goods better just due to versatility and soft goods doesn't limit articulation like plastic does. However the jacket really has some great details to it so I will go with it.
So I have to say I think this is a better likeness to Jackson than all of the Mace Windu figures put together.
So in summation buy him. He is slightly better than IM2 Nick and works on a great many levels. He is an easy buy if you skipped Winter Soldier (and from the looks of the shelves many did) even though he is not 100% screen accurate he is passable.
Next up, KOMBAT!
Back in the day I really kind of liked Nightwolf when he came out in MK3. His move set wasn't so great but I liked that they included an Apache with the rest of the Kombatants. Granted he is a bit of a stereotype but he fit in and added some diversity to the group of fighters in the arena. Now we get a figure of this iconic character for the MK9 1:18th line. How doe she fair, ok but not perfect.
My two big knocks to the figure would have to be skin tone and face sculpt. I think they were going for a darker skin tone (appropriate if you think about it). but the color they chose was really off. It kind of looks bluish in certain lights and really detracts from the overall figure. The face sculpt looks kind of cartoony at certain angles. Now one might think that a character from a video game looking cartoony would be a stupid thing to complain about but it really began to bother me the more I messed around with the figure.
Nightwolf comes with his "Spirit Arrow" which is just a painted bow. I think some translucent version of this being drawn or even the tomahawks would have been much more appropriate but given the sparse nature of this line with accessories it is welcome. What I really like on this figure is the detailing.
Unlike may lines right now, the parts are clearly unique and probably will only be used on Nightwolf. I'm sure they could get away with a "player 2" version at some point, but this is the only likely use for such distinct parts. It seems Jazzwares is taking it's time with this line which is a good and a bad thing. For me the line is hard to get as I haven't gotten a TRU or Target near me (Still looking for Raiden) which is also why I grabbed this one online. I'm not sure if he is really worth that price but he is cool, so I had to grab him.
So as a big MK fan I would say buy it, unless you hate MK or something, then pass.

The next figure is purely for fun.
I know technically he is "Undead Geonosian" but how often do you get to use the term Zombie and Star Wars in the same sentence in which it doesn't suck (Looking at you Death Troopers).
So zombies are apparently everywhere, even the Clone Wars. That episode kind of surprised me in many ways because while labeled a kid show they went for the horror elements, pretty gutsy move IMO. Something I'm sure wouldn't even be thought of a decade ago. Is that showing how far Night of the Living Dead has come to be excepted in the public consciousness? Who knows. But the fact is I never thought I would see a zombie (or Undead) Star Wars figure in my life.
The figure has a ton of novelty value but it was in a very hard to find wave (No not a Hasbro wave that is hard to find, never). I finally got my hands on one so here he is. He's just fun which I think is the point of toys.
Probably my favorite details is the rotting wings. Really sells the figure as a zombie-er-undead. I've never been a huge fan of Geonosian even though Lucas said they were kind of an anwer to the conversation in Clerks about engineers and contractors on Death Star II in ROTJ (Seriously, check out the commentary on Episode II the Attack of the Clones, if you can withstand that movie LOL). Still just the idea warrants owning this figure, it's just too funny.
If you see it, grab it I say. Too much fun and look, zombies are beginning to come out in every line now (still want my Zombie Ninja though).
Now, (and I don't say this lightly) the granddaddy of this review-
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives at the exact time he is supposed to."
Let me explain:
Ever since I was 8 and read the Hobbit I have wanted a 1:18th Gandalf to hang with Obi-Wan Kenobi and share a pipe. I know its weird but seriously I have waited over 23 years for this figure and I couldn't be happier.
Although I usually avoid reviews before I get the figure I made a huge exception with Gandalf. I saw a ton of complaints about the likeness. Might be me but I feel this is pretty close to Ian McKellen. Gruff, intense but also a hint of fun in the eyes. I don't know, I felt the same way with the GI Joe ROC figures when people said they were "spot on" to actor likenesses, but in reverse.
Gandalf has is signature long hair but amazingly it doesn't effect articulation as much as it does with most figures with long hair (look at Nightwolf above). You can easily move his head to to the side with minimal struggle (but it's not instantaneous I admit, you have to work at it a bit).
Much to the shigrin of many an anal Dungeon Master, Gandalf does come with his long sword. For those not familiar with Dungeons and Dragons many Dungeon Master held hard to a "suggestion" of limiting Wizards weapons which exclude long swords. Of course the common player response was "but Gandalf had one." Of course DM's often came back with "not in my world" which usually translated as "I'm not as good as Tolkien to begin with."
A minor gripe to the figure is that the robes do kind of block articulation. Really though there is no way around it. Soft goods maybe but it would throw off the whole look of the figure. On articulation, it's really good, much better than most of the Avengers line (Even has wrists). This makes me more interested in the rest of the Hobbit figures.
The sword has a scabbard that is-surprise-removable. In fact it removes quite easily. Thus you can have wandering Gandalf as well as adventuring Gandalf (yeah, just a slight difference in the fact he is carrying the sword).
Gandalf opens up a ton of doors as well and everyone is talking about the possibility of Lord of the Rings 1:18th scale figures. I totally hope so but as it is all we really have is Gandalf and Legolas (who makes a cameo in the Hobbit film as I understand).
Another minor knock is the fact that the hat falls off kind of easy. Still I'm glad it's removable and will take a bit of difficulty with it.
So when I got Gandalf my first thought was how does he compare in scale to the larger LOTR figures. Well with the cave troll there is a problem.
I thought Gandalf would be closer to his size in the movie in comparison but really he looks about hobbit sized with the larger Troll. I now need to hunt down the Balrog and compare, that might be just right.
With the smaller version of Treebeard Gandalf looks pretty close to accurate. In fact I am willing to bet Bilbo could sit on his shoulder (will get back to you on that).
So does anyone have to ask at this point? Really, it's Gandalf, that's enough.
So that wraps up this edition of the oddities from various lines, so until next time-Have a nice day!.

As my old sergeant-major used to say, ask a stupid question once and be a fool for a day, keep it to yourself and be an idiot forever.
So, I thought I knew all there was to know about Armour when Defence was removed as an attribute; and even after Intelligence changed from +health from orbs to Resistances I stayed confident.
And then my knowledge was turned on its head by people posting about Physical Resistance (some of you may know which thread I'm referring to, in the Barbarian forum) and how it was also affected by Intelligence.
Armour decreases damage from ALL sources. Strength adds to armour.
Resistances decrease damage from the specific source they resist. Intelligence adds to ALL resistances.
Can a kind soul here, equipped with the numbers and/or the necessary math and the patience to explain it at high-school level, please tell me: What, if any, are the defensive differences between an increase in Strength and an increase in Intelligence?
Thank you very much in advance, Hardrock (hehehe) at al.

The property is located on a hillside much like other properties in the area with winding paved roadways up to the pickup and transportation locations... however the use of the golf cart to get up to the hub station is not available. You can only get a ride upon checkin and check out. For folks that are handicapped this is not a property that is friendly to say the least. But it is beautiful and the staff are more than accomodating for anythign that you need. I would book again at this resort. por charrise de denver co em 06/05/2013

3. | Bellmore | ||
Bellmore is a decent size town with about 37,000 people and is roughly 30 miles east of New York City. It is divided into South Bellmore (those who live south of Merrick Road) and North Belmore (those who live north of Merrick Road).
We are an upper-middle class town with the average household income at around $115,000. That being said, there are people whose parents make a lot more (ranging from $150,000-$450,000) and generally live in South Bellmore and those who make less ($70,000-$100,000) and for the most part live in North Bellmore. A good amount of people in our town tend to flaunt whatever money they have, but that is not to say everyone is like that. There are people in both North and South Bellmore like this. There is also some weird "competition" between North and South Bellmore's children with who is tougher and who has more money, however this "competition" is forgotten after the age of 16. Most of the kids are spoiled in both towns and have extreme attitude/ego problems. These most likely dissipate after college except for the kids who stay on Long Island. 99% of the residents smoke weed, parents included. If the parents don't, then they enjoy their alcohol a little too much. It's fine, though, because they all take their work seriously. Overall, Bellmore is a good place to live and an okay place to raise a family. It's extremely safe, but your children will act ridiculous for a long while, if they grow up here. 10 year old Bellmore girl: "But mom, everyone else just got the new Fendi and I want one too!"
JFK or Mepham H.S. Boy: "Don Fuk Wit Me or I'll Break Ya Face" After College: "Wow! was I that bad when I was that age? Fuckin' Bellmore" (smiles endearingly) |

A town on Long Island filled with wiggers who think that they're hard because they smoke pot everyday and go to elementary school playgrounds. Bellmore is divided into two sections, no one can just be from "Bellmore." There's North Bellmore and South Bellmore.
North Bellmore is filled with hardcore gangsters (16 year old kids who smoke weed everyday, and never amount to much of anything in their lives) and you'd better not fuck with them or they'll fuck you up (throw eggs at your car during Halloween). South Bellmore is filled with assholes who have waterfront property, houses that are way to big to even be called houses and cars to match. Its filled with guineas who get their eyebrows waxed and go fake tanning, and...Jews. If you don't smoke weed and drink, theres not much to do at all here. Some kids go to Bellmore Playhouse, a shitty little movie theater. Outside of it, on Saturday nights, theres tons of little 13 year old kids who are tough because their mommies let them stay out past 11.OH, and don't forget about the hardcore sk8r kids who shop at Hot Topic |
2. | bellmore | ||
The only thing you will find in bellmore is hundreds of 12 & 13 year old kids flocking the streets of town that think they are hard but if you start a fight with one of them they will cry and call there mothers on the cell phone and the mom will come pick them up in a benz "look at this mother fucker"
"i am going to tell my mommy" |

As for bellmore, these families, i'd say the majority is upper-middle class. As for these kids, well you can catch them hanging out usually in schoolyards after dark usually passing around pot or smoking ciggarettes...as they call it "Bowgies", or beer. Most kids are mainstream & listen to lil wayne, jay-z & are not only white & rich, but have such large egos they now believe they are black and live a hard-knock gangster life, by hanging out in school yards & smoking "weed" with daddys money, they maintain a cool kid wigger attitude. Then theres the rebels. Not as bad as the wiggers i'll admit, but still bad, these are the ones you can find in bellmores own village dressed in clothing that looks like it is stapled and clothespinned with ridiculous punk bullshit all over it...what an eye sore & whats sad is there parents can afford to buy them regular clothes, you can find these kids that range from 12-17 year olds, who are often surrounded by older men, whom i'd say are probably middle aged hanging out with them idk why they are with them, i dont want to no. I think bellmore village needs a shower & a drug test, & the rest of bellmore needs to idolize something else besides hollister models & rappers on MTV more...

Doug Glanville on baseball, its controversies and its lessons for life.Tags:
This season there have already been five no-hitters, a pace that would shatter the modern-era record of seven thrown in both 1990 and 1991. The most recent was Matt Cain's perfect game for the San Francisco Giants against the Houston Astros on Wednesday night. Before that was Philip Humber of the White Sox (another perfect game), Jered Weaver of the Angels, Johan Santana of the Mets and, just last week, the Seattle Mariners — six of whom pieced one together, with five relievers following the starter, Kevin Millwood, who went down to injury.
What the Mariners pulled off as a team shows how a no-hitter (or a moment like it) is really embedded in the fabric of the game. Using six pitchers to throw one is unusual, but it probably reflects more accurately what truly makes up a no-hitter. Johan Santana may have thrown the first pitch and the last pitch of his no-hitter, but it was more than a solo achievement: Mike Baxter had to make a super catch, the umpire had to miss a call, every Met defender had to be in the right place at the most opportune moments. Santana can only make a pitch, and no matter how good that pitch is, it has to be fielded by his defense or caught by his catcher. Without all of them, a no-hitter is an illusion.
This week, Cain benefited from a running catch by the left fielder, Melky Cabrera, in the sixth inning and a sensational diving grab by the right fielder, Gregor Blanco, in the seventh, both of which preserved perfection. No matter what no-hitter story you choose, there is always heroic help to turn one of these games into more than just another well-pitched effort.
I remember a game when I was playing center field for the Phillies and our pitcher had a no-hitter going in the ninth inning. A ball was hit my way, I got a bad read on it and was unable to recover in time to make the catch. The no-hitter was gone.
I was promptly booed. It was a home game, too, and at the time it was hard not to take the fans' dissatisfaction personally. (My teammates were not happy either, even though they knew it was a play I had made previously in my career.) True, the fans were not there to see a no-hitter per se — just as you may not have been there specifically to find that $100 bill on the sidewalk — but they knew they could have been very pleasantly surprised to find themselves cruising arm in arm with the game's divine powers of inspiration. Instead, when that game was wrapped neatly in its box score, it was easy to deduce that I was the key factor that prevented them from witnessing one of baseball's great snapshots.
As a player, you are humbled just by being able to participate in creating these moments. Every pitcher, every hitter knows which the special ones are, and knows that they require much more than a rocket arm or lightning-quick hands. It's almost as if there's a magic wand at work, one that has the shortstop in the right position or the wind blowing just in the right direction. It cannot happen in any other fashion.
Another thing to keep in mind: In baseball, we accept that even in a perfect game, a pitcher will throw 25 percent or more of his pitches outside the strike zone, sometimes wildly so. Cain threw 39 balls out of 125 pitches en route to his perfect game. In no way is a pitcher ever as "perfect" as perfect can be, but within the very human rules of baseball, it qualifies.
Jered Weaver pitched his no-hitter with his family in the stands. Afterward, with tears in his eyes, he found his father and hugged him as if he were a 4-year-old boy tall enough only to grab one leg. He was able to embrace his history, knowing that nothing happens without it.
Santana had an additional perspective: simply playing the game at all was out of his reach for a time. Injuries had put his career in doubt, and he had to work his way back to health just to have the chance to record a single out, let alone 27 of them without yielding a hit. I am sure that after he got that final out, he was humbled by how much bigger his no-hitter was even than the gift he received when the gods first tapped his left arm.
These achievements may end up on one player's résumé, but when we reflect on the happenstance and the collective effort (human and divine) it took to get there, we come to accept that they are Olympic in stature and therefore for all of us to cherish.

Big money, long odds for drawing
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Black Friday shoppers in many cities briefly detoured into lottery retailers, drawn off task by the prospects of winning a $325 million Powerball jackpot – the fourth-largest in the game's history.
Chicago resident Clyde Gadlin, 65, emerged from the bustle of holiday shoppers on Chicago's Michigan Avenue, to stop in at a 7-Eleven to buy his daily batch of Lottery tickets, including Powerball.
For him, the game is a chance to dream – a single winner's cash payout would be nearly $213 million before taxes – and he tries not to let the long odds burst his bubble.

[...] This is our third fireplace from this company and we could not be more pleased.
Beautiful presentation
By Vicki
from Martinsburg, WV
The fireplace is a high quality product. Very expensive looking. [...]. I'm very pleased with it except for one thing - when you turn the heat on medium/high, there's a noise. Somewhat of a humming. I thought it would be perfectly quiet . . . maybe I expected too much.
I love my new fireplace
By Nikki Q
from Mccomb,MS
I am very pleased with my new fireplace. The ordering process was super easy and i had my fireplace in only two days. I have it in my large living area and it heats the entire room and down the hall. I have no complaints. Order yours today because im enjoying mine now.

Looks even better in person
By Sniggle
from North Carolina
I love the look of this fireplace, which was my main reason for wanting one. I was a little dissapointed by the look of the flame though. It's not the worst I have seen but not the best either. The slate accent is terrific though. I also like that most of it is real wood, not cheap materials.

It is a nice looking piece of furniture.The fireplace throws off alot of heat considering how small it is. I am a little disappointed in the size of it for the price I paid.
