Christie Blasts Boehner on Sandy Bill: "Shame on Congress"Boehner relents, schedules vote for part of Sandy recovery bill on FridayGov. Chris Christie, R-N.J., joined a growing chorus of Republican and Democratic lawmakers decrying House GOP leadership for stalling on a Sandy recovery bill, publicly shaming Congress in a press conference today and specifically targeting House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, for his role in scuttling action on the disaster relief. "There's only one group to blame for the continued suffering of these innocent victims: The House majority and their speaker John Boehner," Christie told reporters. "Last night, my party was responsible for this." The House was expected to vote last night on a $60.4 billion package that would have provided disaster aid to states hit by superstorm Sandy more than two months ago. The Senate passed a similar measure last week, and according to Christie, he was receiving "assurances" that the bill would "get done" as late as 9 p.m. ET on Tuesday night, Jan. 1. Ultimately, however, Boehner decided not to take up the bill for a vote, and Christie said he was informed of the decision just minutes before midnight Tuesday night. "I was called at 11:20 last night by Leader [Eric] Cantor and told that authority for the vote was pulled by the speaker," Christie said Wednesday. He said Boehner not only refused to meet with the New Jersey delegation, but also ignored his own phone calls. "I called the speaker four times. He did not take my calls," he said. "All I can tell you was this was the speaker's decision -- his alone." According to a Republican leadership aide, the bill was not taken up in part because timing was bad in light of the recent fiscal cliff showdown, which resulted in a deal many Republicans opposed. The aide cited assurances from FEMA that there are sufficient disaster response funds to last through March, and Boehner told New York and New Jersey members that the disaster relief package will be his number one priority in the new Congress and will happen within the month. Christie, who did speak to Boehner this morning, said he had been given no "credible" reason for the holdup, and had "no reason for me to believe anything they tell me, because they've been telling me stuff for weeks, and they didn't deliver." Even while distancing House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., from his critiques somewhat, the famously outspoken Republican governor expressed disgust and disappointment with the "know-nothings" in Congress who held the bill up. "Last night politics was placed before our oaths to serve our citizens. For me it was disappointing and disgusting to watch," he said. "If the people of New Jersey feel betrayed today by those who did this in the House last night, then they have good company. I'm with them." |

Sequestration Could Result in Program Cuts, Job Losses Within County School System
Special education and Title I programs would suffer under the federal budget cuts.
If sequestration goes into effect Friday, Baltimore County Public Schools will be feeling a major pinch through job losses and cuts to program spending over the next two years as the system works to reign in spending.
Various media outlets have reported that federal education funds would be strongly impacted by the $1.2 trillion in automatic federal spending cuts—mandated by the 2011 deficit reduction law—over a 10-year span that will occur absent Congressional intervention.
Barbara Burnopp, chief financial officer for the school system, said BCPS officials anticipate taking an approximate 7 to 10 percent hit to the system's budget for the 2013 fiscal year, which would be around $4.6 million. However, a more precise figure will be provided to the system by the Maryland State Department of Education in about 30 days.
"You won't see immediate impacts in the short term, but we are anticipating long term impacts [over the next two years]," Burnopp said.
In line with nationwide challenges for programs, she said Title I and special education would face the biggest difficulties.
"We would need to make a lot of changes to sustain the programs in the long term," she said.
According to a news release from the National School Boards Action Center, special education and Title I will see $726 million and $579 million in cuts respectively over the 10-year span throughout the country.
Teaching jobs would also be affected, though an exact number of job losses in Baltimore County is not yet known.
"We would have to downsize," she said.
The National School Boards Action Center conducted a poll asking school board members across the county to share how many job losses they would expect for the 2013-2014 school year. The majority reported that up to 10 layoffs would occur, with larger districts anticipating significantly more.
Nationally, the federal Head Start early education program for low-income families would also see an estimated $398 million loss—the third biggest cut—according to the release. Baltimore County does not participate in this effort.
School contruction and improvement—a hotly-discussed topic locally—as well as general "maintenance of effort" initiatives, will not suffer, as they are funded through local and state revenue sources, Burnopp said.

They are only cutting 45 Billion from a 3550 billion budget. Most is coming out of defense. These numbers can't be right. Why even mention Head Start if the County does not participate in it?

4:10 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
People, wake up. There are no "cuts". The 2013 Federal budget is more that the 2012 budget. They will spend more in 2013. The so-called cuts are a reduction of the increase. Accordingly, there is no need to eliminate existing jobs. All teh stink about this is deliberate fear-mongering on the part of the Obama admin.
8:29 am on Friday, March 1, 2013
Other Tim: The Patch is just one of hundreds of news mediums that preach this doom and gloom. Where do they get it from? Politicians themselves.
Pauly: Please, as if the fear mongering doesn't come from the Republicans equally. Prime example: The "Hollowing out" of our bloated defense spending. Please. You started a great point but wrecked it with idiotic partisanship.

I agree! Thank the Good LORD that I'm a Native American!!! The Government has treaties to uphold, however more than that we know how to live off the land and grow hearty crops. We have been pushed on reservations-which worked out well. We have limited pollution and live good simple lives. I feel sorry for the people who will not know what to do...

This article Is full of lies and distortions! There are no "cuts" only a reduction in the amount of money over 10 years! If the School System can't figure out how to do this without harming kids they should just shut down the schools because they are incompetent!
8:21 am on Friday, March 1, 2013
'There are no "cuts"'
Ask the people that are getting furloughed 22 days a year if that is a distortion?
8:17 am on Friday, March 1, 2013
Current contracts, in the first quarter of the year, of Defense corporations will gradually slow down and then expire.
During the first quarter, defense corporations will not be able to formulate proposals to win contracts, therefore it will results in no new work coming in. This is when layoffs will occur.
8:31 am on Friday, March 1, 2013
Yep, time to cut back on bloated defense spending. Time to stop manufacturing wars we could never afford. The "war on terror" wrecked this country financially.

perhaps it's time to cut our politicians and president's pay and special program perks. shouldn't they have to pay out the same way all the rest of the American public has to for whatever we need? clean house and senate out and start with new, fresh ideas as the old ones just continue to go round and round and round. Cut their salaries and their govt cars and vacations and dinners, pay for their own social security; cut their jobs - perhaps we don't need all those senators and representatives that we are paying their salaries. Tighten up our budget and programs with elimination of their extras and jobs - bet they would get on the stick real quick if their own pockets were affected. i'm tired of hearing about the fiscal cliffs and sequestering and cutting programs - why always education and special needs programs? Start in their own pockets.

Not to mention, the following:
1) Businesses paid out dividends in December, due to fiscal cliff/tax increase fears:
2) The Social Security tax 'holiday' (which should have never been implemented to begin with, imo) was intentionally allowed to expire.
The Commerce Department indicates that excluding these two unique, one time events, income was actually up .3%.
So please, keep on spreading half the story, CP.

The Special Ed. system is already in need of qualified people who fully understand the meaning of Special Ed. Each and every student needs specialized instruction and you cannot group all of them together. We are looking at severe self-esteem issues, since these kids are already excluded believe it or not. They are going to have to hire qualified counselors for these students if they cut back anymore in the Special Ed. system. Let's not place so much emphasis on sports and give to Special Ed. so these students who deserve a quality education can look forward to the future too. How sad and disgusting.
2:54 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
I applaud the cuts. The services and entitlements, especially the extra-constitutional ones, should not be funded unless we have the money, in hand, to fund them. We cannot sustain this deficit spending pattern of Bush and Obama's "leadership." We need to be more like Iceland to stave off becoming like Greece, or worse. We are allowing the media to distort the truths about deficit spending. We need draconian cuts in "defense," entitlements like social services that are not means tested for delivery, bureaucracy, education, and the list goes on ad nauseum. We need politcians that are statesmen and will have the courage to vote down extra-constitutional spending and to impose austerity. We need to empower non-profits to step to the forefront of our social service delivery again, like they did prior to FDR. We need to streamline taxation and immigration to encourage SAVINGS, then production. Only then can SUSTAINABLE consumption be achieved. We need to eliminate a significant amount of regulation and outlaw business incorporation. We need to make proprietorship the only legal means of having a business and do away with corporate stock boards and go to buyer beware investment into proprietorships. We need to do away with direct federal payroll taxation and go back to levying the states proportionately. We need to put 60% or more of all government employees on the streets so they can see how it is on Main Street. We need to stop being led by our ignorant emotions.
David Taylor
2:16 am on Sunday, March 3, 2013
You can't cut your way to prosperity - look at Greece. Otherwise I think you hit on some solid points.
We have an income gap that destroyed the middle and working class (and the tax base), wars and billions in energy subsidies, and that was combined with tax cuts. Is there any surprised things are the way they are?
Re-ivesting in real, people-run small/med business, in education, return to a more traditional scaled tax structure ... and maybe a solid dose of anti-corruption laws targeting lobbyists might turn the tide.
2:58 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
Almost completely unreadable. Fire 60%+ of all government employees. Can you get me any of that stuff you are smoking? Wow!

Breaking news:
Due to devastating job cuts, all SSA offices have been forced to cut all training sessions teaching the Harlem Shake. Workers are devastated by these cuts. Rev. Al Sharpton asked a Republican Congressman - "Why is you allowing dees cuts to our gubmit workers?"

12:44 am on Saturday, March 2, 2013
Sorry RMI, I never believed anything but that it was your normal racist rant. I was right it appears, last warning Buck.
4:22 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
Sorry FIFA. I thought that since your crew has no problems with the lyrics of JZ and Two Chains and they are your heroes, a little zinger would get you a chuckle. Instead, the rage. Ok, don't want you to get upset. I won't mention the comments of Rev. Al lamenting the fact that due to the sequester cuts, many family owned weave and wig shops and tat joints are going out of business.
Don't wanna be disrespectin and what not.

Moe - the problem I see is very simple. The white anglo American race is a breed apart. The desire to be free from 200 plus years ago, to make our life ours has taken our country to amazing heights. To have people come from other countries and races to join in that dream made us stronger. Of course we have had problems, and we worked to solve them. Two huge mistakes made in recent years. First, our desire to bring freedom to other countries - the people in those countries do not have in their DNA the desire for freedom, success and failure as we do. A noble idea, but an incorrect idea. The second was the conservatives not pushing to run urban centers. Their belief was simple - folks do not want to live in the slums, they will find their way out of these slums by hard work. Liberals jumped at the opportunity to take control of the cities, and their massive voting blocks and quickly eroded the American Dream in exchange for votes. The urban centers took off in numbers, the Democrats were able to control more and more and work toward the "victimization" of these groups. The American Dream is dead in these cities. Consvervatives still cannot understand this. We look at Dr. Ben Carson - a marvel, don't know his politics, but we do know he is the best in the business at his profession. We don't understand why HE is not the example for these urban centers and folks like 50 Cent and Two Chains are. When the President appears on "Pimp With a Limp" you know problems exist.
8:39 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
One of the most revealing statements I have ever read in my life RMI as written by you. Simply wow!!
"The white anglo American race is a breed apart. The desire to be free from 200 plus years ago, to make our [white] life ours has taken our [white] country to amazing heights". Congratulations RMI.
9:27 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
Interesting FIFA. Although my heritage is probably like most, a blend of many mixes, yes, I do identify myself as an American who is white. American first, but white. Very proud of that heritage. Other folks of other races should be proud of their heritage as well. If you take it as a slight to you, you have to deal with it. There are reasons why we are one of the few countries that need a fence to keep people out - that shows our success as a country. The American experiment has been a great success, what a great country with unlimited opportunity (no guarantees) to do great things and to fail miserably. The opportunity to learn, take chances, and live in freedom is unlike no other. But we must look at our problems from a statistical approach - this is what did makes our country prosper - analytics. We must review the analytics and they are not good for black americans and minorities (other than Asians). An honest disucssion of why are test scores for blacks in comparison to whites are lower, even in the same schools. To NOT have an honest discussion about this is inherently in its own right racist. To lower the bar as has been done by administrations and to say - you as a black child have a lower expectation than your next door neighbor is racist. The knee jerk reactions of throwing money at the problem does not work. Interesting that you focused on my fist comment but not on the other comments that bringing other races to follow the dream made us stronger.
9:35 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
RMI, your first comment floored me. I don't know what else to say about it. Knowing that we spent the first almost 100 years enslaving black people and the next 100 keeping them down as much as possible to help us get to our amazing heights and to paraphrase you "what an amazing white people" we are. Then you talk about test scores. Wow.
You have no shame, sir.
10:05 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
FIFA, many white people died in the civil war 150 years ago so blacks could have their freedom. 150 years ago was a long time ago, 50 years ago was a long time ago. In an effort to make right some of these wrongs, an aggressive affirmitive action plan was rightfully established. The hope was that would move blacks in to the middle class, and their kids could experience the opportunities that others had. Unfortunately, the results were not as expected. In a prior life I worked in a large professional services organization, we wanted to hire blacks, for many reasons. We wanted to give them opportunity, but we also did believe a mix would bring energy to our organization and we could all prosper. We accepted black applicants with much lower grades and experiences, and worked hard to put them in a place to do well. They unfortunately had no interest, were underperformers, and left. Most went to government work and told us point blank the government was hiring and they just did not want to work hard. Blaming something that happened 150 years ago or 50 years ago will not help. Remember the words of the great Les Brown (he is black). Talking about people who are losers in life and always looking to blame - "90 percent of the people don't care about your problems. The other 10 percent are glad that it is you." To loathe a race as you do is not healthy. To not be proud of your race or heritage is not healthy. To blame others for your failure is not healthy.
10:17 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
RMI, first, full disclosure. I am a white American. Born to a European mother and American father serving in the military in Germany. Not important to the discussion.
When the slaves were freed in the 1860s they were in the lowest economic class. For the next 100 years they were kept in the lowest economic class. Some got out, most did not. White Americans were spread throughout various economic classes during this time.
What you are suggesting is that black Americans have had 50 years in which to make up the head start we white Americans had on them. We were spread out through all of the economic classes and they were at the bottom. You now question why haven't they caught up in the 50 years "we" tried to help them. The same reason we still have poor white rural America is the answer. Crawling out of the bottom is for the very few.
10:23 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
PS - RMI, more died trying to prevent that freedom as I recall.
11:14 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
FIFA, you are unfortunately living in the past. Got somethng for you - everybody, everybody has a story to tell. It could be I was poor, pops rolled out on me, pops and moms fought all the time, I was given everything and now I don't know how to do anything. Your envy for those who have more is hurting you. Being mad at someone who went to Gilman while you went to Woodlawn is not going to help you. Life ain't fair and nobody cares. Pops rolled out on you, you were poor, moms and pops drank all the time, no one cares. Control what you can control. If this happened to you, take control of your life so it does not happen to your kids. Pops rolled out on you, don't roll out on your kids. We live in a competitive society, we are tapped out, can't keep funding groups that don't want to get ahead - it is coming, no matter who is in charge. Simple math at this point.
You have in your mind people wake up every morning and say, how can I make this group's life miserable. A few do. Most wake up and say how can I grow financially, personally, spiritually.
You have a fundamental view of life that folks can never move out of their condition and move forward. One can tell by your miserable posts. I hope you mature and realize that greatness IS in every person, and the only thing holding these people back are the people themselves. Another one by Les Brown "To have what others don't have, you must be willing to do what others don't do." Yes - a black man.
12:33 pm on Sunday, March 3, 2013
All these local issues should be that- local issues and not affected at all by this. The federal govt should do only what it is constitutionally allowed to do and no more.

Candy Corn Oreos are hitting store shelves. CNN's Jeanne Moos puts them to the taste test.
What about the NEW Candy Corn M&M's? Which are quite good centers are like white chocolate...have Jeanne put them to the test.
Candy Corn is one of the worst candies out there, along with Salt Water Taffy, and other hard gummy substances. Definitely Yuck.

oh yeah i agree with this too, its just sometimes if you even bring ANYTHING up about mental health people accuse you of doing it for attention because of how badly its stigmatized? thats the case sort im meaning
oh well that's dumb :c
I mean honestly we should be past the point where we think of mental health as anything that… different, considering all the people who have it? I mean I don't talk about my mental health issues that much but I'm more private in that regard. Personally I just see it as having a cold, if that makes sense? Nothing you can control so yes you should be able to talk about it in public without people acting like dumbasses. (oops I just used an ~~~slur~~~)
Rule 1: post the rules

Shout out
To Andy (I hope he's tracking his tags):
Any word on the mystery ingredient for this month's Food Challenge?
zwerven said: To me, I let my friends know if they feel my problems are a bit overwhelming to just let me KNOW before they start getting frustrated with me.. I can understand other people needing some time off, you know? But to just attack someone for it, huge no
Oh no, I agree. I worry often about how the issues I'm dealing with impact my friends and family. But I'm specifically referencing a situation wherein someone was getting anon hate for getting help from friends to manage their many and serious mental health issues. Like really it's up to A the person in question and B the people in their lives to decide if it's okay or not, not some asshole on the internet who's read a few tumblr posts
im sorry im flooding it with porn (maybe 2 pics isnt porn but i dont imagine the liechtenstein tag moves that quick) im so sorry
zwerven replied to your post: why does no one wax poetic about me. i'm going to…

I got very interested in refurbishing and refinishing furniture last year as I saw a creative way to "upcycle" what others might see as unsightly. I also had been following a lot of design blogs and last summer I picked up a very old school yet cool library card catalog. I started to refinish it (you may have seen bits and pieces of it in posts and a couple drawers hold cards in my booth) but right when I was in the middle of refinishing it, I was contacted by a company to license my artwork. That, as many of you know, was a roller coaster experience and I basically had to put my life on hold and focus solely on mass producing art.
Feelings about that whole experience aside, I had to stop working on furniture and I never finished that card catalog (though I am determined to do so this summer!). I stopped reading books on the topic, stopped following many of those blogs and put that hobby on the back burner. The other issue I had was I had no place to showcase any furniture I worked on and while many people sell furniture on Etsy, it's a pain to ship and not feasible with me living such a distance from a major metropolitan area. But when I got the opportunity to rent my booth at The Barn, all those ideas and excitement about refinishing furniture came flooding back. Not only that, but I needed furniture to merchandise my goods on (I was using tables from my home and wanted them back!).
One of the things that has been very hot lately is French Provincial style furniture, especially those that have been painted and distressed to give the 60′s/70′s look a new/old look. So I had been scoping out craigslist and thrift stores for this kind of furniture and a couple weeks ago, I was thrilled to find a dresser and vanity/desk set at a great price!
Here's how the dresser looked like before (minus drawer pulls)…
Halfway through the process with just gray and white paint, it looked quite pretty, like suitable-for-a-little-girls room-pretty. I could have left it just like that but I wanted a more adult look; a more vintage/grungy/distressed look; something that had an old world style. And distressing and adding wax gave it more of a bluish-gray look.
I painted it a mix of chalk paints and sanded the heck out of it to give it that grungy, worn look and distressed with dark and clear wax to give it an aged feel. Then sanded it again to give it that buttery smooth feel. Because I went through so many steps and was relatively inexperienced in the process and had to keep referring back to books and blogs, this whole piece (with chair, missing from photo above) took me about 12 hours to complete. Sheesh! But it was truly a fun experience and I'm so glad I did it. I almost wanted to keep this, but alas, I needed it in my booth to merchandise my goods and bring back some of my home furniture.
What's left now? Her dresser sister! Keeping busy

APEye is a jQuery widget for issuing HTTP requests, designed to help document and test APIs. With a few lines of Javascript, you can let users experiment with your API without leaving the documentation. Unlike hurl and apigee, requests are handled entirely by the client; no server-side proxy is needed.
Azzyzt JEE Tools is a set of Eclipse plugins for creating a so-called "azzyzted" project, and for creating code from a model. Azzyzt uses Java JPA entities as a model, and from that model it creates an enterprise application, ready to be deployed in a Java EE 6 application server like GlassFish 3.1, ready to be accessed via CORBA, SOAP, and REST. Thus the generated application is a set of Web services, providing all that you need in a typical CRUD application. Generated enterprise applications have separate source folders for generated and developer-supplied content. You can add your own functionality to a well-engineered base project. Azzyzt JEE Tools is not about user interfaces. It is expected that the generated application is accessed by a RIA frontend or by a fat client.
CRest (Client REST) is a lightweight library that simplifies the integration of third party RESTful services into Java applications. CRest is mainly annotation-driven, allowing the developer to focus on the essential aspects of the integration of a REST service, such as the definition of the Java interface that maps the remote REST methods and the data model the interface will deal with. The rest is achieved by annotating a plain Java interface with the relevant information such as the service end-point, the desired timeouts, URL formats, etc. CRest will handle everything else, including HTTP request generation, auto marshalling of the response, and more.
DataNucleus AccessPlatform is a standards-compliant Java persistence product. It is fully compliant with the JDO1, JDO2, JDO2.1, JDO2.2, JDO3, JPA1, and JPA2 Java standards, and provides a REST API. It complies with the OGC Simple Feature Spec for persistence of geospatial Java types. It allows access to all popular RDBMS available today, together with the MongoDB, LDAP, NeoDatis, JSON, Excel/ODF spreadsheets, XML, BigTable, HBase, and Neo4j databases.
Django REST framework is a lightweight REST framework for Django that aims to make it easy to build well-connected, self-describing RESTful Web APIs. It creates self-documenting Web APIs that include a Django admin style frontend. It has a modular, flexible architecture using Django's class based views. API creation can be as simple as adding a couple of lines to urls.py.
DooPHP is a very fast PHP framework. It enables developers at all levels to rapidly develop robust Web 2.0 applications. It is quite feature rich. DooPHP supports some common stuff found in a Web framework, such as an MVC-base structure, RESTful APIS, a REST client, URI routing, database ORM tools, a model generator, HTTP Digest Authentication, a flexbible compiling template engine, logging and profiling tools, and more.

What you need to know
DownloadDaemon is a download-manager which will run on low-end NAS like the WDTVLIVE
Because they are so low-end, the GUI will use a lot of CPU power if you run it from the webend.
I advise everyone to use the ddclient-GUI, which is available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/downloaddaemon/files/Version%201.1/
This GUI will give you more pleasure when using DownloadDaemon and won't crash as often.
Derlinuxer couldn't support us anymore, so Martor and I took over the project of cross-compiling DownloadDaemon (via Ubuntu).
For feature requests and other stuff, you can go to the project home page. You are welcome there. b3nno, the guy who's the creator of the project is also a member here, so if you don't want to go to his website, PM him with future request (remember that he does everything free, so don't ask too much!!).
DownloadDaemon is a comfortable download-manager with many features like one-click-hoster support, etc. It can be remote-controled in several ways (web/gui/console clients), which makes it perfect for file- and root-servers, as well as for local use.
- * Completely Remote-Controlable with a Console, GUI or Web-Based client
- * Support for Special Hosters (rapidshare.com/uploaded.to/netload.in/youtube.com and more)
- * Download Via HTTP and FTP
- * Easy to Extend with Plugins
- * Plattform-Independent
- * Automatic Reconnects to Bypass IP-Based Bandwidth-Limits
- * Automatic Captcha-Recognition (no recaptcha!!!)
Supported Hoster
*See DownloadDaemon's FAQ
More Information you will get on http://downloaddaemon.sourceforge.net/
Rev 1197 and above
Rev 1275 and above
- b-rads firmware 0.4.2 or higher
Unrar the archive, put it on a usb disk and it will mount as soon as you reboot your WDTV-live via the webend or via telnet.
Then DownloadDaemon should be mounted and shown on the webend. The first thing you should do then is updating to the latest version by clicking config and then update
Some big Points in the thread (one at the moment):
If you want to use rapidshare/megaupload/hotfile premium account don't forget to set "direct download ..." in your rapidshare account. If not you will get only small file (about 30kB)
When something is not working as it should, just telnet to your wdtv and do this command:
- Code: Select all
/tmp/init.d/S97downloadd clean
If that's still not working use the following command:
- Code: Select all
/tmp/init.d/S97downloadd force-clean
First of all, thanks to b3nno, stefan, koryu, etc who created this application with plugins! Secondly, thanks to Brad! Without him, we wouldn't have this forum or any of the firmwares released! A big thanks to derlinuxer, who created the crosscompile enviroment and guided us through the first time! Also chameleon_skin, who gave me a great tutorial on how to create an app.bin! Also thanks to Martor, for the support and testing of this application! Finally, thanks to all of the other developers and members!!! With their support, my WDTV-live has become a mediaplayer, where even my mom can work with!!!

EMCC's 2011 baseball season opener delayed a day due to inclement weather in Florida Panhandle |
SCOOBA – The 2011 season debut of the East Mississippi Community College baseball team will be delayed a day due to inclement weather around the Florida Panhandle region. Instead of a three-day tournament, the Gulf Coast Community College-hosted Kevin Miller Baseball Bash will be shortened to two days in Panama City, Fla. Originally scheduled to begin on Friday, the GCCC event will now take place on Saturday and Sunday with three games scheduled each day. All games are slated to be played at Gulf Coast's Frazier Field and are scheduled to be covered on the Gulf Coast Sports Network via the DakStats webcast game links located at www.gcathletics.com. Under the guidance of first-year head coach Chris Rose, the EMCC Lions are set to take on Georgia Perimeter College in Saturday's second game at 2 p.m. CT. The Lions will close out the two-day event by meeting the host Gulf Coast CC Commodores at 4 p.m. CT Sunday afternoon. Andrew College (Ga.), Alabama Southern CC and Wallace State-Hanceville (Ala.) are also scheduled to participate in this weekend's second annual baseball event named in honor of Kevin Miller, a former Gulf Coast player and coach who died in 2005 at the age of 32 following an automobile accident. |

Juicy is well-known for their terry, velour, cashmere, and fleece tracksuits, which have been made famous by the many celebrities who wear them. The line is sold in upscale department stores and specialty stores, such as Marshall Field's, Macy's, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bergdorf Goodman, and Parisian.
Entertaining slogans often adorn Juicy apparel, such as "Wake up and smell the Couture" and "Dude, Where's my Couture?". The signature Juicy Crest, as well as the phrases "Love, P&G" (or "Love G&P") are stitched on the inside tag of each item of Juicy apparel. The order of the initials changed in early 2006 after a lawsuit by the Procter & Gamble corporation. Juicy girls rule<<3333 Juicy Couture is hot<333

A clothig line that is infimous for it's "j" charm on the hoodies. you must be in good shape to rock the Juicy look or you'll seem like you are trying too hard. Real Juicy Girls don't wear the screen t-shirts that adorn messages such as "give Juicy a chance". The real Juicy girls ony rock the tracksuits and jeans. It's all about the "j" baby.

I travel to Dublin to work on genealogy and have stayed several times at Montrose Lodge. Having stayed at other B and B's on earlier touring trips, once I found this B and B I knew I had a gem. Accommodations in Dublin tend to be on the expensive side so that was my reason for first looking in Donnybrook... More
I stayed here recently with a colleague while attending a conference in UCD. An excellent location across from UCD, easy to access by bus and in a quiet area. Helen was efficient, business like and also very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable, clean and the price was very reasonable. Breakfast was lovely and again Helen was friendly and... More
We stayed for 2 nights, choosing this inn due to its proximity to our friend's home and the fact that it is on the Lepardstown line for the Aircoach for transportation to the airport as well on the Dublin bus line for getting back and forth to the center of town. Ms. Martin was charming and very welcoming. We had... More
This a nice B&B close to UCD. Which is why I was staying. I stayed for one night and the host seemed nice. Rooms are clean and comfortable, with antique style through out the house. The sausages were not to my liking, however the breakfast was good. My only problem was finding the B&B. It is actually quite concealed, and... More
Stayed here recently for 2 nights and in general enjoyed the stay. Location is convenient for the bus into the centre of Dublin. The accommodation was clean and the food was good. The not so good - Car parking is minimal - about 3 spaces for 9 rooms, so could be a problem. Also, other than handwash, there no toiletries... More
I stayed here when I did the Cambridge English Proficiency exam. I had studied in Galway and all I needed was one night in Dublin for the exam. We chose this B&B because it was the closest to school according to Google Maps. And it is really close! And the room was nice and clean, warm and comfortable. The breakfast... More

This week, the childcare staff at McDanield has been participating in a kindness challenge. The objective has been to perform random acts of kindness to positively influence someone's day. We have extend these acts towards our coworkers, family, community, and even to strangers. The Toddler 1 teachers wanted to extend this idea and incorporate it into our classroom. We all participated in making cookies in class on Wednesday. We also had the help of a couple friends from the Toddler 2 class. We had so much fun and the kids loved the group activity. We then had the cookies delivered Thursday morning to our districts Central Office as a surprise, in hopes of making someone's day for no reason, other than simply being thought of through a true act of kindness! |

Hi guys - just FYI that I started a wiki page for Ixtee on the DOA wiki, and put in some very basic info/links. Please feel free to edit! I haven't had a chance to start on the individual Mui Chan or Fat Chai pages, but feel free to go in there and add things.
I'm also going to try and take some comparison photos between Mui Chan and Pukifee unless someone else has beaten me to it. I think it would be really helpful to have some comparisons on feet size, height, etc.


text: A friend of mine read Cofederates in the Attic (despite my protests, as he was looking for lagitimate references to gear and uniforms), but it is an interesting read and he had a few questions. He was asking me about crash dieting. I never really got that either. If anyone has tried crash dieting, does it work? I know it's not healthy and sometimes dangerous, but how long does it take to see results? This is a stupid question, I know.

May 15, 2013 10:55 am | by ReutersTV | Videos | CommentsApple's legendary profit margins may be challenged if the firm releases its long-rumored low-end iPhone later this year.

(Becket Adams) Before we get into the meat of this story, let's play a game of "Spot the Supposedly Racist and Discriminatory Undertones in This LEGO Star Wars Playset":
No, really, take a good look at it. Notice anything wrong? No? Well, even if you didn't, members of a Turkish community in Austria say they did: They claim the playset is an unflattering reference to Hagia Sophia, one of Istanbul's most revered mosques.
"Austria's Turkish community said the model was based on Hagia Sophia mosque in Istanbul and that the accompanying figures depicted Asians and Orientals as people with 'deceitful and criminal personalities,'" The Telegraph reports.
Here's Hagia Sophia:
Outraged at the supposed connection, the Turkish Cultural Community of Austria has called on LEGO to apologize for "affronting religious and cultural feelings."
And for those of you who don't know who Jabba the Hutt is, he's that big 'ol slug thing from "The Return of the Jedi." Yes, he is a "deceitful and criminal personality":
Photo: Evertte Collection
Jabba's domed home and accompanying watchtower bare, according to the statement, an unwanted resemblance to Istanbul's great Hagia Sophia, and another mosque in Beirut," The Telegraph report notes.
But it's not just the toy design that has the Turkish Cultural Community of Austria up in arms: They're none too pleased with the accompanying figurines.
"The terrorist Jabba the Hutt likes to smoke a hookah and have his victims killed," said a statement posted on the group's website.
"It is clear that the ugly figure of Jabba and the whole scene smacks of racial prejudice and vulgar insinuations against Asians and Orientals as people with deceitful and criminal personalities."

WINSTON-SALEM — The Surry Central Golden Eagles girls lost a tough match away on Friday to Winston-Salem Prep, but the coach said it was a hard fought battle.
The Phoenix rose over the Golden Eagles by a score of 62-59 in a very physical ball game, said Coach Mandy Holt.
Courtney Hegler led with 24 points, five rebounds, four assists and three steals. Cassidy Joyner was the second highest scorer with 15 points and six assists. Sarah Bruce contributed nine points, Tess Dockery had six, and Brooke Lewis had two.
The difference in the game came down to 24 turnovers and the fact they made seven three-pointers, said Holt.
She said, "I was proud of how we played and we fought to the end."
The coach said the Golden Eagles shot 51 percent in two-point field goals, 31 percent from the three-point line, and 73 percent from the foul line.
Holt said the team would know after a meeting today the tournament match-up for next week.

The one thing that does give me hope is the fact that our rookies never really seem to see significant action their first year. So I can't write his lack of PT off as lack of talent.

RE: Lofton, Saints agree to 5 year deal.
We'll know by the end of April what our roster will look like. Be interesting to see if we pick up another LB. I don't think we do. I think we pick up a TE and LT with picks 2 and 3. I don't think we add another pass rusher until next year. We have 2 guys in Sidbury and Matthews who have been untapped on the field thus far. We need to use them. We then have Biermann, Edwards and Abe. I can't see us carrying 6 DEs. We will have to work with what we have a tackle for this year. We have Babs And Corey. Babs bounces back maybe he gets one more deal. If he doesn't then we upgrade the DT spot. We have Peria. Who we won't cut as he is a cap albatross. I see him gone after the season though. We have made a move to keep Vance. He is good depth and in the event of injury is a good hold over.
I think in the next draft we could go for an DEnd in the 1st and DT or LB in the second. If our ends improve under Nolan I think our attention could turn to getting a corner or DT. That being said if we don't address the LT spot in the draft this year I believe we'll address it in the 1st next year. There is a lot of unexplored talent on the Defense. Under Nolan, it may be found that there are far less gaps on the team than we currently see their being. |

I thought the problem was that our scheme was dumb for putting Lofton on receivers, his blitzes were as obvious and telegraphed as could be, and his entire scheme was unimaginative and predictable. If that's true, then how can you blame Lofton for doing poorly in pass coverage or not having good production rushing the passer? I'm not doom and gloom here, but this isn't something to be excited about. This is entirely an, "in TD I trust move," because counting on Lofa and Akeem on the surface is not a very good alternative to Lofton at all. How is it that you're a mod with the attitude you always post with? If BVG didn't go to Auburn, his ass was getting fired. Don't make it sound like "complaining about him" was something only idiots did. Your condescending tone about it makes it sound like you think the guy was a genius or something. Whether BVG's scheme was bad or not, Lofton was still put in positions to make plays and he failed to make them. No matter how you spin it, everyone on the planet knows Lofton was not good at pass rush and a liability in pass coverage. BVG didn't make him miss plays that were makable. |

This is about like when Swift tried to use Ryan's grading in PFF's revised NFL QB rating stat as a knock on Ryan when their PFF grade had him in the Top 5. I guess you can get mad at PFF too for not telling you what you want to hear. How does that link not show context? There's only 12 LB's in the league who had better pass rushing efficiency than Tatupu in 2010 and only 13 who had better from 2008 to 2010. That's pretty damn fair context. More so than just a grade. |

Our defense was hardly bad. When it came down to the game that mattered, they did more than enough to keep us in versus Eli. What were all these plays he missed? What was Lofton's pass coverage grade last year's versus Lofa's in 2010? If Dent is a two down LBer defined, how can you be excited for him to see playing time? |

I just don't see how anyone can see this as a positive development. I agree with you on the did not cut him part, but we could have made the cap moves to keep him at his price or a price acceptable to him and we didn't. We had the time to do this prior to him hitting the market. That's a pretty bold decision. And one the three of them would not have taken lightly. I'm not saying that you are. But some folks take this as your our FO say their with their thumb up their ass. When since last year they made ready for the possibility of losing Curtis. I think you may have read War Room. We went for Dent, but we actually were after Justin Houston. It would appear that getting a LB high was a priority for our FO, someone who could pass rush and cover. In an instance like this if we lost Lofton. Nich could have moved inside and Justin and Sean played the outside spots. Those are some active LBs in all 3 phases. However it didnt work out that way. We chose not to bring Curtis back and we will currently have to go with Spoon Lofa and Nicholas. I would like to think Akeem can compete but similar to Spoon and Peterson if we do see that Akeem can be out guy going ahead. We will gradually change the guard over. As you said, this genuinely is a situation of trust and new territory for us. It's the 1st time we have done something like this under our Current structure. I don't think you can consider Dahl something of this nature as we couldn't keep him and the others we retained with the other moves we made. |

And I assure you, I'm not the only one who sees it. And yes, BVG was getting fired. Use your head. If his job was secure and he had nothing to worry about, then why did he line up a new job in "college" within days of the season ending?? Are you going to sit here and try to tell us that it was 100% his decision and had nothing to do with him feeling the heat? Our defense was middle of the road or slightly below average because of him, and I don't mean in a good way. His schemes sucked balls and everyone knows this. Our defense would have likely been so much better in a different scheme with the quality of players we have. Luckily we'll get to see what I'm referring to this year with Nolan. And Dent was a tackling machine in college just as much as Lofton was, especially if you factor in that he played in the SEC on top of that. Dent: 4.74 40, 24 bench reps, 37.5 vert leap, 123" broad jump Lofton: 4.79, 23 bench reps, 24.5 vert leap, 105 broad jump |

All I can say is if Lofton can still tackle a rusher he'll be a huge upgrade.

Physically Dent is the superior player however because he seemed to be slow in reading and reacting to plays at times, I can see why people have some worry about him in place of Lofton who when once he committed seemed to know where he was going. All this being said Dent is no slouch. |
