the school which students who care about their lives after college attend and is located in the city voted #1 to live in america. people who couldnt get in or people bitter about their economic situation tend to have a problem with uva because the harsh reality that uva students will be their bosses one day. these people have a problem with popped collars, reason being that they arent stlyish or attractive enough to pull it off. they also have a problem with the fact all uva students wear is ralph lauren, etc...; this is becuase they are jealous and cant afford to. once an individual with serious grievances against uva gets over their inferiority complex theyll see that while they may not be able to make a future for themselves, uva grads will be there to provide a job for them some day.
and just in case the above wasnt evidence enough to prove uvas superiority: "Just about every other school in Virginia likes to bash UVA kids for being 'pretentious' and 'snobs'. In other words, they get called out for thinking they're better than everyone else. Well, if you went to the school in Virginia with the most stringent admissions requirements, best overall athletic program, most beautiful campus and coeds, most successful and famous alumni, the most storied social scene, was founded by Thomas Jefferson, and all that happened to be in what was voted the #1 city to live in America, well you'd think you were the shit too." - ESPN's review of college campuses + Ryan Bitzer bitter jackass: man i hate uva, theyre all a bunch of preppy, pompous fags.
bitter jackass (4 yrs later out of college): no boss i never had anything against uva, your alma mater is a great school. let me kiss your ass the rest of my career in hopes that i might make a fraction of what you do. |
Founded in 1819, the University of Virginia is one of the most amazing schools in Virginia, and the country for that matter. UVA is the only North American college or university designated as a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, which means it is preserved as a "site of outstanding cultural or natural importance to the common heritage of humankind." Located in Charlottesville, VA, rated one of the top cities to live in America in 2004, UVA is consistently at the top of the public school rankings list. UVA is situated near 'the Corner' which is home to a multitude of restaurants, collegiate merchandise shops, and bars, including 'the Biltmore,' which was rated the number one college bar in America by Playboy.com. UVA is also home to over 30 national fraternity chapters and 16 national sorority chapters. UVA's grounds have been graced by such public figures as Queen Elizabeth II, Desmond Tutu, the Dalali Lama, John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Ted Kennedy, and Franklin D. Roosevelt. UVA also attracts many major performing artists, namely the Rolling Stones, the Roots, Dave Matthews Band, and Eric Clapton. The Virginia Cavaliers have won 16 recognized NCAA National Championships, 13 of them since 1980, with at least two national titles each in five different sports. In summary, I can't wait until the fall to go back to UVA.

-ESPN's college review The University of Virginia, also known as UVA, is one of the premier learning institutions in the world and widely regarded as the best educational bang for your buck in the nation.

a college filled with ultimate, spoiled, pompous assholes, who never worked a day in their lives, who refer to dead prez Thomas J. as "TJ" and call him their best friend, and who swear everyone who isn't at their college regrets not being there. normal person: so how was your weekend?
uva ass: well TJ and I spent our weekend at the dog show, then we went shopping for new shirts...we must keep the collars popped. Ha. Ha. I am done laughing. normal person: wtf?? uva ass: ohh silly goose, you wouldn't understand, it is a uva thing. |
Otherwise known as "where fun goes to die", UVA is a major university full of the most arrogant assholes that you will ever meet. UVA students are also somewhat confused about certain college aspects. For instance, NORMAL people do not wear sundresses/pearls/ties to any sort of event other than a funeral, graduation, a party at the country club, or a ride on daddy's yacht. This ESPECIALLY means sporting events, i.e. football games. Secondly, UVA students do not seem to understand that a student who is in their first year of college is a Freshman, NOT a first-year. You are not in England, so don't act like it. In addition, UVA students seem to think that thier founder, Thomas Jefferson, is the greatest person ever born. The students can't seem to understand the fact that no one cares about this except for them.
As far as sports are concerned, UVA has teams that are good at what they do. They are. Yes, some years they are better and worse than "other" teams, but the fact is, most of the time all of their sports teams are formidable opponents. The fact is, the students that do not go to UVA do so because they don't want to be surrounded by the assholes that embody UVA. Guy: Hey, where are you going to college?
Rich bitch 1: Oh, my daddy is going to pay for me to go to UVA. I just got this Mercedes for my birthday and can't wait to drive it there. Rich bitch 2: It's great, we never have to work while we are there. I take only 12 credits a semester and can stay for as long as I want since I have all the time in the world. Guy: Yeah...well unlike you too, I actually have to try. Guy: UVA sucks! UVA student: No it certainly does not! Thomas Jefferson founded this school. Do you even know who that is? Well, I'll tell you anyway... Guy: hold on, hold on.....I..don't .......care. UVA student: Oh, want a Zima? |
UVA, where we're better than you and we think we know it. UVA is actually the biggest collection of douchebags you will ever see in one place. UVA students like to constantly remind everyone what school they go to and generally act like complete assholes to anyone who doesn't go to their piece of shit school. Granted, UVA is a well rounded school but it's not as specialized as some other schools. Virginia Tech is better for engineering, architecture, etc. whereas William and Mary is a well respected liberal arts school. Virginia Tech actually caries the highest average starting salary for graduates than any other school in Virginia. If prestige is the only factor in deciding your school, than its obviously best to go to an Ivy league school. If you're looking for a school that's actually fun to go to then UVA just blows, without question. UVA likes to call itself a party school, which I guess is true if you have a fine taste for wine coolers. UVA also claims to be the top school in Virginia in terms in athletics. Let's be honest though, it's not like Americans give a flying fuck about soccer or lacrosse (I apologize to anyone who plays soccer or lacrosse it's just the truth). UVA is awful at sports that people do care about (football, basketball, etc.) but apparently they didn't take that into account.
The personality of UVA is shockingly is similar to Buzz Killington (from Family Guy) . Think about it, he's snobby, annoying, and no on... |
Where someone goes if they have a very small penis but want to make up for it by bragging about what school they went to. Though often the average UVA student can't think of any reason to go to UVA other than academic ranking and because Thomas Jefferson founded it. It doesn't matter how ugly the campus is, how weird the student body is, or how lame the party scene is as long as "TJ" founded it. But people only hate UVA because they're just jealous ...right? UVA student: I am so awesome since I go to UVA, I am so much better than everyone else because my school was founded by Thomas Jefferson.
Normal College Student: Wait, why do I care about Thomas Jefferson? And oh yeah you got another shipment of "natural male enhancement" in the mail today. |

Aimee, from ExtremeCouponingMom.ca was kind enough to take me shopping on Saturday for my very first extreme couponing experience. Even more exciting is to realize it CAN be done in Canada!
Normally, a 15 mins drive, it took us more than an hour to get to WalMart because of highways being closed for construction and walkathons so we kept getting detoured. A bit frustrating, but we laughed about it knowing it just made the experience that much better! We went to a WalMart that isn't on a bus route and, as I was walking to the store with my binder of coupons, I started getting really excited to learn from my "guru". You can learn from Aimee too as she offers coupon seminars.
Aimee is amazing! She had looked through my coupon binder in the car ride there (which included the $47.50 worth of coupons I had received in the mail the night before! It's the pic at the top of this blog). She was able to remember when I had coupons vs her binder that weighs more than 30lbs (!!!!). The tricks they mention on TLC's Extreme Couponing are very true…pay attention to sizes of the products you are buying. If there's no restriction on your coupon, then look in the areas of the store with travel sizes, or smaller sizes. If you have a coupon for a few dollars off, then you will probably get the smaller sizes for free.
The coolest part of shopping was when I loaded 30 boxes of Ziploc bags…for free!! By price matching with another store where they were on sale for $1.99, and having a coupon for $4 off when you buy 2, I was able to get 30 boxes for FREE! A few people around us were watching intently (including one mentioning that he wanted to get a box, but only if there were some left…we did leave some, no worries), so I kept reminding Aimee to hand out her business card.
Prior to this experience, I didn't understand why there's so much marketing around price matching. Now I get it, especially when gas prices are so high! Didn't have to drive around everywhere. Aimee brought a spreadsheet where she listed the sale items at other stores so we were able to take advantage of those sales at WalMart because she also brought the flyers with her.
It took about an hour for both of us to check out (I told each new person who came in line behind us that we had lots of coupons and were price matching so, if they were in a hurry, they may want another line). Eventually, a older couple just joked that they weren't in a hurry and were excited to see the process. One of the women from the neighbouring aisle even asked where we got our plastic sheets to hold our coupons because she just brought them all in her pocket. I handed Aimee's card to each of them, and our cashier who was having fun with our coupons too.
Here are our carts before checking out:
Here's my loot:
Which included, among other things:
- 1 box of 100 Pampers (for which I paid $14.97!)
- 2 bags of 8 rolls of paper towels
- 4 boxes of Koolaid Jammers
- 4 toothpastes
- 1 Glade roomspray with 2 refills (this is a gift…shh, don't tell anyone!)
- 30 boxes of Ziploc Sandwich bags
So, the "numbers" from our trip:
- 2 hours in store
- 86 items bought
- coupon value used: $143.62
- spent $90.56 ($20.81 of that was tax)
- brought home $212.52 worth of products (which is based on the price-matched price, rather than the regular price of each item)
- 68% saving (excluding the taxes)
To put it all in perspective, if I had bought all the Ziploc bags at the price-matched price of $1.99 and the box of Pampers, all the other 55 products for FREE!
I'm TOTALLY hooked!!

The manhunt for the 20 year old convicted rapist from Squaw Valley is over.
Spencer Scarber was arrested Thursday by immigration officials in Mexico for lack of proper documentation.
Detectives were informed of the arrest, then had Scarber transferred to Los Angeles, where he was taken back into custody by Fresno sheriff's deputies.
"They weren't going to let go until they got Scarber back in Fresno county."
It all began last July, when Scarber was arrested for a violent rape, during which he's said to have used a knife.
He was out on bail during his trial, and as the case was coming to a close, his father, Kyle Scarber reported spencer missing, possibly kidnapped.
But the trial continued, and Spencer Scarber was convicted of rape, robbery, and burglary.
Meanwhile, investigators continued their search.
"Information began to develop that led us to believe that spencer had left the area to purposely escape imprisonment, and that members of his family helped him to do so."
One of those family members is said to be Kyle Scarber, an assistant chief with the Highway Patrol.
He was arrested, and faces charges of conspiracy, and filing a false police report.
A search warrant was served at the Scarber home in Squaw Valley earlier in the day...
CHP says its fully cooperating with the sheriff's office as detectives investigate Kyle Scarber's role in Spencer's disappearance.
"It's always unfortunate whenever we have to criminally investigate a law enforcement officer, but investigate we must."
Spencer's mother Gail Scarber, and his sister, Crystal Reynoso were also arrested...
Sheriff Mims says they were the ones that drove to Mexico, but returned on foot.
Both face charges of conspiracy and accessory.
Gail Scarber is also accused of possessing false documents: A phony birth certificate and passport, both intended for Spencer.
"They are going to be considered an escape risk, so the places they will be held in the Fresno county jail will be separated from the general population, because of their connection with law enforcement."
Spencer Scarber currently faces 32 years to life, and is again awaiting sentencing.
Charges against his family will be prosecuted by the state's attorney general.
Kyle Scarber is under guard at the hospital after complaining of chest pains shortly after he was arrested.

Justin Crook and Skye Brookes - Australia
*How long have you been a member of SaleHoo and how has it
helped you achieve your business dreams? *
My name is Justin and my partner and i joined SaleHoo quite
a while ago. We were both very skeptical about the types of
deals we were shown but decided why not just give it a look
at. Since then, we have made our money back 60 times over
and are growing more and more. We sell a little bit of everything and are now stocking out
2 shops, and its all thanks to SaleHoo.
Paul Evans-McLeod - New Zealand
*How did you get into online retail? *
I'm aged 55 and reside in Hamilton New Zealand. Due to
circumstance out of my control I decided I needed to build
an alternative income for my retirement. So I looked to New
Zealand's eBay type internet seller which is called Trade
me. *What obstacles have you had to overcome as a seller? *
I initially tried sourcing from overseas on my own buy just
using Google and going from there. Man, that was a big
learning curve and headache in itself, and I approached all
with a bit of trepidation after hearing and learning of all
the internet scams etc. *When did you finally decide to join SaleHoo? *
In my internet travels I came across SaleHoo. To be honest I
looked at it, went away, came back,looked at it, went away,
and then came back and decided what have I got to lose.
Ricky and Ally Gravolin - Australia
Hi I'm Ricky - an eBay seller and SaleHoo member from
When my daughter was born I wanted to provide an opportunity
for my wife, Ally, to stay at home with our new baby. The
problem was, achieving this on one income simply wasn't
possible - so I began to look around for a home-based
business opportunity. Ally had a background in sales, and I had already sold a few
things on eBay and built up good feedback, so we eventually
decided eBay would be a good place to start. *When did you join SaleHoo and what do you like about it? *
We SaleHoo in August 2009, attracted by the promise of good
wholesale leads with user reviews. From the outset, SaleHoo
seemed perfectly oriented to our business. We also loved the
idea of SaleHoo's member forums, where you can ask a
question and have it answered promptly by a like-minded
Steve Marmas - USA
I started selling seriously on eBay after being laid off
from my job as a director at a well-known global company. Although I had been working in the corporate training
industry for 12 years, when I tried to get another job I was
constantly rebuffed and told I was over qualified. Finally, I decided to stop trying to return to corporate
training, and changed my focus to my part-time eBay
business. My goal was to expand this business beyond eBay
into two websites, but I faced two challenges: My lack of
experience and not being able to find name-brand products I
could buy and sell at a profit. In September 2006, I discovered SaleHoo and joined with the
aim of finding manufacturing contacts. I also tried a number
of other wholesale directories but found SaleHoo to be the
better of the bunch.

In October 2006, the progressive media criticism group Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR) accused The NewsHour of lacking balance, diversity, and viewpoints of the general public, in favor of Republican Party and corporate viewpoints.[9] FAIR studied the NewsHour's guest list for 6 months, from October 2005 to March 2006. Republicans outnumbered Democrats 2:1 (66% to 33%), and people of color made up only 15% of U.S.-based sources. Former U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales accounted for 30% of Latino sources, while former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice accounted for 13% of African-American sources. Additionally, Hurricane Katrina victims made up 46% of all African-American sources. Public interest groups made up 4% of sources. Current and former government and military officials made up 50% of sources. Regarding the Iraq War, sources that supported an extended occupation outnumbered pro-withdrawal sources 5:1, and this ratio continued even after polls favored a withdrawal from Iraq. During this time, not a single peace activist appeared.[9] PBS Ombudsman Michael Getler agreed with FAIR's report. These are "perilous times," wrote Getler in his Ombudsman column. "As a viewer and journalist, I find the program occasionally frustrating; sometimes too polite, too balanced when issues are not really balanced, and too many political and emotion-laden statements pass without factual challenges from the interviewer."[10] FAIR also protested in 1995 when Liberty Media purchased a majority of the program, citing Liberty's majority owner, John Malone, for his "Machiavellian business tactics" and right-wing sentiments.[11]
The closest Liberal "news" shows on TV would probably be the Daily Show and the Colbert Report.

Catch Me If You Can [Blu-Ray]
Director : Steven Spielberg
Screenplay : Jeff Nathanson (based on the book by Frank W. Abagnale with Stan Redding)
MPAA Rating : PG-13
Year of Release : 2002
Stars : Leonardo DiCaprio (Frank Abagnale Jr.), Tom Hanks (Carl Hanratty), Christopher Walken (Frank Abagnale), Martin Sheen (Roger Strong), Nathalie Baye (Paula Abagnale), Amy Adams (Brenda Strong), James Brolin (Jack Barnes), Frank John Hughes (Earl Amdursky), Brian Howe (Tom Fox)
Steven Spielberg's Catch Me If You Can tells the you-wouldn't-believe-it-if-it-weren't-true tale of one Frank W. Abagnale, Jr., who, at the age of 16, dropped out of high school, ran away from home, and took control of his life by developing into a masterful con artist and "paperhanger," spending the next three years successfully impersonating a Pan Am pilot, a doctor, and a lawyer, all the while staying just a few steps ahead of the F.B.I. and forging millions of dollars of checks in the process. On any level, this is an extraordinary story, one that would be brushed off as "implausible" or "ridiculous" if it hadn't really happened. Of course, the fact that this all took place in the late 1960s when such crimes were new helped Abagnale. In many ways, he invented (or at least perfected) a new form of criminality.
Frank is played by Leonardo DiCaprio, who at that stage of his career was one of the few actors who could portray a teenager playacting an adult. At any given moment, DiCaprio looks like a kid or a seasoned professional, suggesting that the age one appears has less to do with physical appearance than with demeanor and attitude. Frank gets away with his scams because he has confidence. He simply exudes the security that he is who he says he is, which allows him to fool the head of a hospital, a bank president, even the F.B.I. agent who, at one point, has him cornered in a hotel room.
The agent hot on his trail is Carl Hanratty (Tom Hanks, in the second of his three collaborations with Spielberg), a button-down whiz in the nascent check-forging crime unit of the F.B.I. Hanks has a good deal of fun with the role, playing Hanratty as an introverted but determined professional, one who doesn't get along too well with other people (his unexpectedly short "knock-knock" joke is the funniest bit in the movie and one of the funniest bits in any movie that year), but knows what his job is and won't let anything get between him and his man. Taking on a thick "Bah-stan" accent that verges on the edge of parody, Hanks is part comical foil, part hero to Frank's undeniably appealing anti-hero.
Of course, because this is Frank's story, he is the center of attention. The best thing DiCaprio does in playing Frank is to convince us from the get-go that he can pull all this off—he embodies the kind of effortless chutzpah that would be required for such preposterous ruses. Just looking at him, we think there's no way he can fool all these people, but he does—again and again. Part of the conviction also comes from Spielberg's smooth, assured filmmaking, which takes us inside and puts us in Frank's shoes as he walks down a line of bank tellers looking for the most naive and easily flattered to work on, or shows us the somewhat crude, but remarkably persuasive techniques by which he forged checks (at first he simply uses decals from a Pan Am model plane to give an otherwise ordinary check the look of corporate authenticity).
Screenwriter Jeff Nathanson (who would go on to write The Terminal and the fourth Indiana Jones film for Spielberg) softens Frank's character and puts him more in line with other Spielbergian protagonists by elaborating on his family backstory, thus giving him a sympathetic motivation for this criminality. While the real Frank Abagnale has said that he did it mostly for money, power, and women, Catch Me If You Can's Frank just wants to put his family back together. His father (Christopher Walken), a good-hearted small-time businessman with seemingly endless I.R.S. troubles, is left by Frank's mother (Nathalie Baye) for another man. It is this marital and familial betrayal that causes Frank to run away in the first place, as he would rather take off on his own than be forced to choose which parent to live with. Throughout the film, he meets up with his father, full of hope that his parents will reconcile and all the money he is stealing will help reunite them (early on they have to sell their house and most of their possessions to pay off the government). The fact that it is never made clear whether Frank's father is guilty of tax evasion or other crimes works in the same way as Frank's noble intentions to heal his family: It softens what would otherwise be a potentially disreputable character.
This is not to say, however, that Frank doesn't have his corrupt moments. He may want to save his family, but he also clearly relishes the power of pulling the wool over other people's eyes, not to mention all the material possessions (and women) his money buys him. One of the film's greatest virtues is the way it traces his growing obsession with his own con game and the manner in which it eventually gets out of his control. When Carl corners Frank again in a printing press in France, the sheer number of forged checks that fly through the air create a perfectly staged visualization of Frank's complete loss of control.
In the end, though, Catch Me If You Can is ultimately a movie about parental redemption. The core relationship turns out to be the one between pursuer and pursued, as Carl and Frank develop a long-distance admiration for one another that, against all odds, turns into a paternal friendship. This is underscored again by the family dimension (so crucial to any Spielberg film), as we find out that Carl has lost members of his own family, and he and Frank find that they fill in the gaps in each other's lives. That this is done largely on a subtextual level is gratifying, as one the weaknesses on which Spielberg's detractors love to harp is his tendency to overstate the sentimentally obvious. With this film, though, he appears to have let go, making a light, often comical crime caper with a lot of heart and, more importantly, subtlety, that is buoyed by John Williams' bouncy, Henry Mancini-channeling score. It's an entertaining ode to the power of persuasion, something a master filmmaker like Spielberg knows a thing or two about.

Catch Me If You Can looks fantastic in a new high-definition 1080p/AVC-encoded transfer. One of Spielberg's brightest and jazziest films, it features a bold array of bright, primary and pastel colors that become more and more intense as Frank's exploits become more and more successful. From the loud orange of his Italian sweater at a party to the deep blues of his hijacked Pan Am pilot's uniform, colors are spot on in terms of saturation and hue. Detail is crisp and sharp throughout, with great contrast in some of the darker interior scenes, especially near the beginning of the film. The lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1-channel surround soundtrack is lively and effective, giving John Williams' Henry Mancini-esque score just the right amount of bounce. | |
All of the supplements included on this Blu-Ray previously appeared on the 2003 two-disc Special Edition DVD and are presented in standard definition. "Catch Me If You Can: Behind the Camera" is a general overview of the film's production featuring plenty of behind-the-scenes footage and interviews with cast and crew (the most interesting parts involve the trendy '60s production design and costumes). There is a featurette dedicated to John William's jazzy score and five short featurettes about the casting of Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks, Christopher Walken and Nathalie Baye, Martin Sheen and Amy Adams, and Jennifer Garner. Given the fascinating nature of the "true life" material in the film, the disc also includes four short featurettes about the life and exploits of the real Frank Abagnale, Jr., as well as a featurette on "The FBI Perspective." The disc is rounded out with the final featurette, "Catch Me If You Can: In Closing" and three photo galleries (cast, behind the scenes, and costume design). |

DENVER - A representative for Willie Nelson says the country music legend is feeling better after canceling a weekend performance and will be back on the road.
The 79-year-old Nelson was scheduled to perform Saturday at a private home in Castle Pines Village, Colo. The benefit was for an organization that provides animal care and shelter in the Denver area.
The host of the fundraiser, Fred Bartlit, told The Denver Post (http://bit.ly/NedGyD ) that he was informed that Nelson was taken to the hospital after having trouble breathing.
But Elaine Shock said Monday that Nelson was not hospitalized and no other concerts will be canceled. His next performance is scheduled Tuesday in Dallas.

Thanks for submitting your tip!
Rain moved in Saturday afternoon and the chance for it will stick around through the seven day forecast.
It becomes very unsettled across our area with clounds and showers again Sunday. The best chance for rain is in the morning and afternoon thunderstorms are possible towards our south.
Sunday is cool but we do warm up well into the 80s by Tuesday. With the warm weather comes a better chance for thunderstorms.
