Amanda, It's a pleasure to be here at one of my favorite places on the internet.
Thanks again for hosting me and letting me share my true TV confessions.
You're the best, my friend.
I'd watch Strange Addiction with you any day... - June 18, 2012 at 8:42 AM

I heart TV and I can't wait until my kids are old enough for me to not feel guilty about them watching it.

Oh Julie, why can't we be neighbors? This is my kind of summer fun. I love watching these kinds of shows, purely for the what not to do factor.
Can't wait to cruise around this gem of a blog. - June 18, 2012 at 8:50 AM
- Julie said...
Thanks so much for that super-sweet intro.
I'm not sure I deserve it but I'm thrilled to be here today.
You're the best for trusting your space to me and my craziness.
I'd be your Sister Wife any day... - June 18, 2012 at 9:04 AM

Seriously, I have three cats and I am allergic.
And I am pretty much lactose intolerant ... and am addicted to drive thro Mickey D's icecream.
But love me anyway, flatulence and all ;) - June 18, 2012 at 9:11 AM

We've been watching The X Files, which is about science, so I feel like we're accomplishing a lot this summer with the curtains closed and the AC cranking.

My kids started vacation last week (!) and my son has taken to wearing my pink, fuzzy bathrobe around the house. As a result, my husband has demanded that I sign him up for camp, pronto.

Be happy your kids are too old for Shake it Up and Jessie and Good Luck Charlie (altho that one I love). You just don't learn the same lessons from those shows as you do from Toddlers and Tiaras! - June 18, 2012 at 9:41 AM
- Julie said...
@Alex - No joke, isn't TV the BEST?! I only wish I were kidding...
@Annabelle - You will love this blog. And I LOVE to surround myself with evidence of moms who are worse than I am. Hooray!
@Nicole - I will take you and your cats and your flatulence any day of the week. Promise.
@Suni - God Bless AC. Amen.
@Tracy - Haven't watched Dance Moms yet. Clearly, I've been an underachiever and must remedy immediately.
@Lori - Does that mean I can borrow your pink fuzzy bathrobe?
@Cheryl - Thanks. I have the theme song to Jessie playing in my head now. Because my daughter won't give up her kid shows completely yet. Selfish. - June 18, 2012 at 10:43 AM

All of a sudden I don't feel quite so ashamed of watching Hells Kitchen and Master Chef on the cooking channel. I do venture over to The Learning Channel occasionally, but I tread lightly so as not to disturb the crazy.
Today's TV = a crap shoot. Luckily, I learned how to use an M-16 in the Air Force.
And besides, Big Brother starts soon and my summer will be complete!
Funny funny post Julie!

I love that my kids are getting old enough to watch some shows with. Just wish Hank would quit licking the flat screen during Cupcake Wars.
- June 18, 2012 at 3:15 PM
Jules, you don't have to watch Dance Moms after our own Mother's stellar immitation of Abbey Lee Miller last Saturday night!
Mom, if you're reading this, I'm absolutely NOT bashing you. Your willingness to be silly (a.k.a. Make a fool of yourself) all these years has paved the way for your daughters, who seem to reach new heights in ridiculosity as the years go by.
And seeing that Amanda has a blog post entitled "Fancy Nancy Can Bite Me" makes me her new biggest fan!!! - June 18, 2012 at 5:39 PM
- Alison@Mama Wants This said...
Have you got my cup of tea ready? Because I'm coming over to watch telly with you.
- June 18, 2012 at 6:13 PM
- Julie said...
@Terri - Hell's Kitchen and Master Chef are SUPER high-brow around here. My kids love Chef Ramsey. Shhhh...
@Diane (aka Jrzgrrl) - Not Moby Dick. Say it isn't so....
@Poppy - As long as Hank doesn't try any beauty pageants...he's good.
@Nance - I forgot about her imitation. Because she's not just cool. She's bitchin'.
@Alison - I love how poor taste knows no time zones. I'm waiting for you my friend. You can bring the boys, too. - June 18, 2012 at 6:20 PM

- John said...
I was just thinking about the fact that summer meant TV for me. I, also, didn't have a TV in my room, so TV watching was a family ordeal. But, during the summers, I'd watch most of my TV during the day, and that meant watching game shows. Oh, how I loved Press Your Luck.
Truthfully, though, my first great memories as a family involved the Dukes of Hazzard and The Muppet Show with my parents.
But now, I hate being so busy, I can barely keep up with any TV...I feel like I'm neglecting my DVR. - June 18, 2012 at 8:00 PM
- Robin Bielman said...
Hi Amanda! Hi Julie! As usual, Julie, it's a good thing I wasn't drinking anything when I read this. (I've learned.) We, too, gather around the TV for family time. Our selections are all over the place, but my secret guilty pleasure when no one's looking? The Real Housewives. Only of Beverly Hills, though. I do have to draw the line somewhere. :) (Oh, and I was in Vons with one of them a few months ago! Not that I went all, OMG, look who it is. Okay, I did. Totally should have said hi. I didn't.)

Oh, forgot to say Congrats on being one of the BlogHer Voices of the Year, Julie! That's awesome!

I love this and reality TV. No, wait, I don't just love reality TV. I think I'm addicted to it. My girls are still too young to enjoy it with me, so it's my late night indulgence.
- June 18, 2012 at 9:55 PM
- Bridget said...
Is it weird that I hear your voice reading these posts to me even though I've never heard your voice?
No? Good, thanks.
M*A*S*H was a staple of family viewing in my house too. I wish I could say it was in reruns. Right now I'm watching some horrible show. About horrible females who look impossibly cute and incredibly young.
I miss HotLips Houlihan. - June 19, 2012 at 12:22 AM
- Lady Jennie said...
How crazy! We totally miss out on these shows and I'm devastated.
Not really, but I'm finding it hard to think of things to do with the kids. :-) - June 19, 2012 at 1:37 AM
- Janie Fox said...
I adore Julie. She cracks me up. She says this blog is the cat's meow or pajamas or one of those...I can't care but I will be back.
- June 19, 2012 at 7:46 AM
- Julie said...
@Mrs. Tuna - I think you already read Amanda here...because we have good taste!
@John - OH did we EVER watch game shows. Match Game, Password, Family Feud, Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy (but now I'm starting to sound smart. So I'll stop).
@Robin - I hate myself a little whenever I catch an episode of RHO anywhere...but I hate them even more!
@Jessica - Someday your girls will be older and you can corrupt them as I've done with my children. (Fingers crossed...)
@Bridget - HotLips was the best. And I watched M*A*S*H* in real time, too. Because we're like fine wine. (Or boxed wine. Either one.)
@Jennie - And now, I can't move to France. (Okay. Maybe yes, I still can. If you cook for me.)
@Janie - It's both the pajamas and the meow. Two cat-compliments in one. XO - June 19, 2012 at 10:45 AM

I totally mean Quality TV. Of course I do.

- Renee Schuls-Jacobson said...
Julie, you know my thing about Hoarders, right? And Intervention? I can't not watch them. The people are disasters -- but I cannot look away.
Well, at least I'm not eating the bed sheets. Yet.
I love you, girl.
I mean, bitch, let me insert these Ben-Wa balls in your duck's rump-shaker.
Wow. Look where you've made me go, Julie. ;-)
Enjoy summer. I know you'll be reading. - June 20, 2012 at 7:05 AM
- nagzilla said...
I'm glad I'm not the only one whose teenage daughter thanks her for not putting her in pageants when watching "Toddlers and Tiaras."
I had often wondered how TLC can keep using it as an acronym for The Learning Channel, but you make a good case for actual learning being done in spite of their programming. Well played.
And I loved Barney Miller, but Fish was always my favorite. - June 20, 2012 at 9:46 AM

Thanks for introducing me to a great new blog! And for validating my stance on TV. It's not completely evil (only the reality dating shows are evil). I would never have known the joys of the early bird dinner if I hadn't watched all those episodes of The Golden Girls with my parents.

Wite Out
By Rx Guy
from Jackson, NJ
About Me Budget Shopper
Comments about BIC� Wite-Out� Correction Fluid; Quick Dry, 3-Pack:
I have used Wite-Out for many years and am getting used to the sponge applicator after using the brush for most of my life. While I still prefer the brush versus the sponge, they both did and do the job which is what it is all about. I don't print as much as I had in the past thus I don't need much and will wait for Staples to run their incredible sales like they usually do and then stock up on it. Have several kids in college also necessitates having an ample supply around as you never know when it will be needed.
Love the Quick Dry
By Greeenie
from Manhattan NYC
I will only buy this "Quick Dry" formula from now on. Plenty of times I've needed to make changes on more than one page and had to wait forever for the wite out to dry before stacking or filing the corrected pages. This Quick Dry is such a benefit for me.
Excellent Wite-Out
By Ang
from Buffalo, NY
This is the best white-out I have ever used, and I have been using white-out since 1982! It is NOT messy. It goes on nice and even! It's perfect!

About Me Quality Oriented
Sometimes if I have a lot of marks to have to erase from a document, the liquid dries too quickly and I have to close lid and shake bottle again and again. But for just a few corrects, it's perfect.
It works
By Eileen
from Bucks County PA
Sometimes the applicator has more than you need. Wipe off excess before applying.
a lot of glob
By Donna
from 250 W.. Southlake Blvd.
I would not recommend it. It is to messy and a lot of glob.

Never too old to dream...85-year-old author's children's book
Category: Metro Written by Genea Webb
Nightly dreams are a likely occurrence for everyone. But Crawford Square resident Rachel J. Poole turned a vivid dream she had in 2007 into an inspiring and uplifting children's book.
HONORED—Rachel Poole is honored by Pittsburgh City Council.
"I had the dream at the age of 82," recalled Poole, 85. "It was a vivid, heart-warming dream that was about me. I was transformed from an old woman, which I am now, to a young girl who had hair that was made of green beans that hung to the middle of her back. I was happy to see that I was young and I could go outside and see animals that don't get along. I was able to feed them. I love children and I love animals so it was great."

10 of 14 homicides Black lives; 4 of 8 February deaths Black males under 30
Category: Metro Written by Courier Newsroom
Four of the eight victims for the month of February, on the Allegheny County list of homicides are Black males under the age of 30. And to make it worse, each of their deaths was due to gun violence. All the marches and vigils won't stop a thing, if our community can't come together and take a stand on one accord.
As part of an ongoing effort to heighten awareness about the effects of murder in Black communities, the New Pittsburgh Courier will compile a list of homicides in the County each month. It is our hope that as the list of victims grows, so will a true understanding of how these lost lives affect the mental health, economic well-being and self-images of the region's Black neighborhoods.

Major North Side gang leaders busted
Category: Metro Written by Christian Morrow - Courier Staff Writer
Members of two gangs formed a decade apart that had recently merged to take out a third gang and expand their territory, have been rounded up by federal, county and city police following the Grand Jury release of a 91-page indictment that includes charges of murder, attempted murder, assault, drug trafficking, attempted bribery, witness intimidation, weapons charges and auto theft.
The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations indictment, unsealed Feb. 24, charges that the Brighton Heights Crips and Northview Heights/Fineview Crips joined forces in 2002 and 2003 to eliminate the rival Manchester Original Gangsters.

North Side community hopeful for new beginning
Category: Metro Written by Courier Newsroom
by Rebecca Nuttall and Ashley Johnson
North Side residents and other community stakeholders are breathing a little easier after the indictment of 26 gang members who called their neighborhood home. Although several of those brought up on charges were already serving jail time, many residents said they hope to see a reduction in crime and violence.
PEACE MARCH—This march last year was one of many such efforts by the North Side communities to stop the violence. Hundred of people came out to show their support for peace in the neighborhoods.
"I'm hoping with these people off the streets, we'll finally be able to start to feel safe in our own neighborhoods," said Tracy Walker. "And hopefully others who are out there will get the message and stop all of the killing and violence."

Who is the founder of Mishawaka? Most likely you either guessed Princess Mishawaka or realized you had no idea. The answer will surprise you.
Tim McDonald serves up really great food every morning to diners that visit his Lincolnway restaurant. And each dish comes with a side of Mishawaka history.
"I love Mishawaka history," says McDonald.
McDonald decorates his restaurant, Macadoo's in Mishawaka, with historical memorabilia. Each booth has a different theme. He is just about to create a booth to recognize Dodge. McDonald knows a lot about Mishawaka history. But, like most people, McDonald has no idea who Alanson Hurd is.
"No, I don't know that one. Who is that?" asks McDonald.
Believe it or not, Alanson Hurd is the founder of Mishawaka.
And it is no wonder no one knows who Alanson Hurd is: There are no parks named after him. No streets named after him. Nothing is named after him. That kind of irks Mishawaka history buff and Penn High School teacher Pete DeKever.
"It is a way for us to see the importance of where we live," says DeKever as he talks about knowing the history of your community.
DeKever says Alanson Hurd was born in New York in 1804. He went to Detroit in the 20s looking for opportunity. He wanted to get into the iron business so he came looking in northern Indiana.
"He needs water power and he needs iron ore. And when he sees those two things he knows this is the place to build his iron business. And that is the origin of Mishawaka," says DeKever.
In 1833 Alanson Hurd purchases land and begins to establish his factory: St. Joseph Iron Works.
"He also purchased that square mile that surrounds downtown Mishawaka with the expectation that that would be the origins of a town," says DeKever.
And soon a town sprang up around his factory. Eventually it would be called Mishawaka. And according to DeKever, it was all thanks to Alanson Hurd.
This of course is a surprise to McDonald...and just about everyone after they find out. Now that he knows, though, maybe he'll dedicate a booth to Alanson Hurd...or at least a seat.
According to the Center for History, by the end of 1837 there were four independent towns within a sizable area surrounding Alanson Hurd's factory. And on February 17th, 1838 an act of the state legislature was approved to combine those four towns into one called Mishawaka. The name Mishawaka is an Indian word that means "big rapids." Some people believe Mishawaka is named after an Indian princess, others believe that is just a myth.

Brilliant straw yellow. The bouquet is very plesant and fragrant, characterized by neat sensations of citrus ftuits and golden apples, on a flowery background that reminds fresh hints of meadow flowers and a persistent vegetal note of sage.
At the palate firstly stands out an excellent freshness, well balanced by a pleasant roundness, featured by notes of meadow flowers and golden apples. The aftertaste is long and fragrant, with hits of fresh almond.

Gilbert Arenas was served papers at halftime of Thursday night's Orlando Magic loss against the Miami Heat, and then he was praised by Stan Van Gundy for his … wait for it … defense following Friday night's Magic win at the Washington Wizards.
What's more shocking?
I posed that question to Sentinel Orlando Magic Insider Brian Schmitz on the latest Today's Magic VodCast. We also talked about J.J. Redick and the return of his shooting touch, while also asking how the Brandon Bass loss will hurt the Magic on Sunday against the Boston Celtics bigs.
As always, you can download/listen to this VodCast here.

I was "camping" grams on my horse trying to watch Budhorn rank. Then we left to cleanse the hoarwell and rank that way....
I ran across a RK fighting a warg near West Isen Trolls/slugs and chased a few wargs up the hill and around the wolves (relatively?) close to Grams.

Re: Classy Players
Try to spin the tale all you want Rotty, you are often seen in camp like positions. You, and others of your ilk often claim to be solo while running next to a freep raid. I will admit to stopping in front of the Lugz rez a few times when the fraid held lugz, and pulled the fight to their rez. You were there among the farmers as well as a few other "soloers". I stopped, pounced a few times took some screen shots, and then moved on. I advise anyone to leave such a fight, but you cannot control the play of others, only your own.

Re: Classy Players
These kind of comments are always really weird to me. Don't you think it's possible for someone who is actually trying to solo and not "solo" to run into other large groups of players sometimes - like you know, when they die and rez where the fight is? Or if someone is ungrouped but fighting in the same area as other ungrouped or grouped players, they're not actually claiming to be soloing? They're just playing the game like everyone else?
Why does someone have to proclaim their intention for the time they're playing? Can't they just play? People who like to solo, "solo" and group - don't have to always do that one thing all the time.
Or, is someone out there 24/7 keeping track to make sure we're always playing the same way?♦ R13 Minstrel ♦ Guardians of the Dagorlad ♦ Jaiyne ♦

Re: Classy Players
People that are on the forums constantly proclaiming to be the example of PvP purity and morality need to be careful where they are seen...much like the preacher proclaiming the evils of prostitution being seen walking out of a brothel. Maybe he was just there to put bibles on the nightstands...
And yes, people are out there 24/7 keeping track of what everyone is doing. Usually they are completely wrong, or just make things up, but they ARE out there doing it

Re: Classy Players
I'm about as "impure" in this game as I can get at this point, after playing so long. But it's just like - why can't everyone just play (group, solo, sit in a zerg, etc) when they want? Does anyone really care? It's open PvP and everyone dies/kills wherever, so to me, it doesn't matter what someone is doing anymore.
I have definitely been a vocal QQ'r over wargpacks for sure - because I was mostly solo (not "solo"). But that only led to me starting to group more than I run around by myself now. Action ---> Reaction.
ps - are you watching this transfer stuff? Looks like the second super server is going to be Prophecy of the Five? ###.♦ R13 Minstrel ♦ Guardians of the Dagorlad ♦ Jaiyne ♦

Re: Classy Players
I AM pure, I've always said "what goes on from GV to Grams is all fair game". I've never strayed from that principle and never will. But people are people...they get ran over by a large group, ganked in NPC's, killed coming out of a rez...any number of things that happen out there, it upsets them. Their only recourse is to complain and attempt to browbeat others into playing THEIR way...
And when you don't change you get threads crying about "raid babies" "zergers" "gankers" "campers"...
My server has yet to be called, so it looks like Prophecy of 5 is where we will be heading. Ironically that was our beta test server.

Re: Classy Players
To run into them yes, that can happen. What I am talking about here are those that run into them, stay along side them for quite a while, and then come to the forums and claim to run solo. I have no issues with solos, groups or raids. I do take issue with those that claim to be solo or in small groups claiming that their small numbers were "zerged" by greater numbers while they are standing next to the raid.

I will warn you - I am *exceptionally* bad at Huttball in terms of getting passed the ball. I freak out as I know I am about to be melted. But I'm pretty good at pulling people into the goal. Just don't pass me the ball Lee and I pretty much don't play together because I embarrass him in Huttball

Actually, I intentionally picked guys who weren't totally incompetent. Otherwise I would've included Mike Singletary, Marty Morninwheg, Bobby Petrino or Cam Cameron. Although maybe McDaniels belongs in the second group, he did get rid of an established QB and #1 WR before ever coaching a game.
Reports say the Eagles are going to interview Seahawks DC Gus Bradley and Colts interim head coach Bruce Arians. How exciting for Philadelphia fans. And it looks like Chip Kelly is off the table, with multiple reports that he's going to Cleveland.
Money, sure, but don't forget that Kelly is a northeasterner. His entire career prior to Oregon was back east. So Cleveland and Buffalo and Philly probably have greater attraction to him then the west coast teams. Then throw in money and power and there you go.
I'm a Skins fan, but now I live up near Philly. I actually feel bad for Chiefs fan with this hire. If you really look at Reid critically, his teams have been utterly mediocre since that loss in the 2004 Superbowl. He got more control over the scouting and draft after that point, and since then, the Eagles have gone 69-65-1, so if you're excited for a 8-8 season...good hire. The last playoff game the Eagles won was in 2008. He really benefited from Jim Johnson, and you can see his teams really weren't the same after Jim passed away. Jim's defenses were ferocious, but the offense was always a finesse offense...so when Jim passed away, both sides of the team became more finesse oriented, and the Eagles became a soft team. You'll see this as he drives you nuts by passing 70% of the time. McCoy was the best player on the Eagles, and Andy repeatedly refused to actually use him. I wonder how he's going to use Charles. He also really needed to take time off before coaching again. He was burnt out this year (death of his son weighed on him heavily). Oh and just be aware that the guy is insufferably arrogant with media and the fans - he's not quite Brian Billick, but he's close.
That's a valid point, he's probably a Mike Holmgren type, good coach but should not be in charge of personnel. Giving him too much power could doom him as a coach, assuming they don't have the balls and the sense to take away his front office powers after a few seasons like the Seahawks did with Holmgren. I remember last season hearing that Asante Samuel and Nnamdi Asomugha couldn't play well together because one was better in man and the other was better in zone. Why the hell would you spend big money on a player who doesn't fit your scheme?
Apparently Ponder is out with an elbow injury for tonight. This is either going to be a total disaster or total hilarity.
Webb is ridiculously dangerous when he busts out and runs. Dude is crazy fast. Can't really say anything pro or con about his arm, though (other than if he could throw, you figure he'd be the starter).
I do think you make some good points, even though I suspect it will be a few years (and coaches) before the Eagles are good again. But don't exaggerate Reid's failings. Yeah, the last two years have been bad, and given the influx of talent that is pretty inexcusable. However, in 14 years as a head coach he's had three losing seasons and two 8-8 years. Take out the 4-12 this year and the 6-10 the year after the Superbowl loss and his record since then has been 60-39, which shows that rather then being consistently mediocre, the Eagles have been up and down. There have been some good years there, even if those weren't deep playoff run years. This argument reminds me a lot of all the talk here about how mediocre Jeff Fisher was with the Titans. Since he's left the Titans have been worse then mediocre and Fisher has managed to turn around the Rams in one year. I suspect Reid has the chance to have a similar instant impact. And for franchises that have lost for awhile a guy who makes them competitive is what they need.
Listen, overall I think he's a good coach, but he is a poor talent evaluator. He's also been visibly burned out the past two years. He really needed a year off to regroup, reconnect with his family, and recharge his batteries. This was a very trying year for him personally; aside from having to fire two coaches (one of whom was a close friend), one of his sons died of a drug overdose at training camp. And you can't just ignore bad years, especially when the trend is pretty clear how Andy's career has gone.
Webb would be an all-pro if he could actually throw the damn ball. What a disaster of a game. Bummer. Packers did their thing, Vikings couldn't do a damn thing on offense for 3.5 quarters. Shame; I was really looking forward to it win or lose, and then Ponder was deactivated, and then...that.
Goose, Moose and the Other Guy are still light-years better than Chucky. Thank God ESPN doesn't have the playoffs. Billick is quite good, and I think Aikman is decent as well*. Joe Buck is fucking horrible as a football play by play guy though. Just. So. Bland. And. Undescriptive. *I may be the only person that thinks this.
I like this comparison, because both Fisher and now Reid have taken over teams that have some decent, if fragile talent and underperformed the year prior to their arrival. I'm not sure what the Rams upside is in the next few years (considering that the NFC West is actually quite tough now), but if Reid can get the Chiefs performing to something like their talent level then they should compete next year for at least a wildcard spot (assuming Peyton's cyberneck holds up to the cold another year; that division is a mess). As a Cowboys fan I'm pretty happy about getting Reid out of the division though; he's a better coach than the battery chuckers up there deserve.
Well the fans in Philly deserve Rich Kotite as Coach For Eternity. They're horrible. I like being here when the season falls apart on them and listening to their talk radio shows. The absolute overreaction and pain and anguish they express is...just so delicious.
Surprise surprise, without the crowd disrupting everything the opposing offense tries to do and providing free false starts and delay of game penalties, the Seahawks can't play defense. I can't believe how many people picked them to win on the road, when they only won two road games all season (and one was against the Panthers, which should only count as half a win). Never mind the Seahawks fans talking about a Super Bowl run, which would require more playoff road wins than they had in the regular season.
Yep. It's a ballgame. Let's see what RG3 can do moving forward. If you're a Seattle fan, be happy they got an INT off him, and off a bad decision and throw. He just doesn't do that, so he's probably not running at full steam right now (RG1.5 perhaps). He had only 5 INTs all year, with 2 of them being off balls the receivers hands that got tipped into the air.
I really would have liked to see what a healthy RG3 would have done in that game. Once he couldn't plant or run...it was over for him.
So would I, honestly, but that is one of the downsides to the way he plays. If I was the Redskins I'd hold on to Cousins for as long as I can - he'll get playing time every year.
Yeah pretty much. :( I really hope that injury's not something that nags him for the next few years. The way his knee buckled looked awful.
Shanahan should have pulled him earlier. Well, what's done is done...we'll see how the knee is. Apparently RG3 was walking after the game, so hopefully it's not awful. I will also say I'm really getting tired of losing to the Seahawks in the playoffs...2005, 2007, 2012. Good lord. Good luck with the rest of the playoffs, Seahawks. Beat the crap out of the fraud Falcons next week, please!
Eightball from what little I gather you can walk on some pretty bad ligament style injuries, so the fact that he was walking isn't necessarily indicative. :(
I know. I'm being optimistic, dammit. I've had torn ankle ligaments in the past (multiple times, yay). Right after you injure yourself, sometimes you can walk on it (sometimes it hurts like hell and there's no way), but once you stop walking, it can swell up like a mofo and then you're done. Good news for the Skins is there's a lot of time to rest and heal for people like RG3 and Pierre Garcon, and there are a lot of good players we lost early on in the season who will return for next year (Brian Orakpo and Adam Carriker, both of whom fit in this scheme very well, and Fred Davis who is a hell of a good TE).
I guess the sprain was his LCL, assuming that's what went on him (and obviously that's quite the assumption) well, from what I recall that's not as bad as an ACL tear. Still not good though, especially for a guy who plays the way RGIII does. If I'm Dan Snyder I'd seriously be considering firing Shannahan right now.
Shanahan said post-game that RG3 told him he could still play at a high level so he left him in. Shanahan also says the doctors cleared his return, but there was a story today that Dr. James Andrews (yes, that one), who serves as a Redskins sideline doctor, never cleared RG3's return when he had the original injury. Shanahan previously said Andrews had cleared him to return in that game. So who knows.

On October 1, 1995, Warsaw's unemployment rate was 14.3 percent. The buying power of the zloty, the national currency, was rapidly outpaced by inflation. But compared to 1989, when Poland first began its transformation from communist rule, the numbers were good. That day the Warsaw Business Journal reported: "A poll by the OBOP polling agency said that 42 percent of the population thinks the economy is expanding." By following its mass privatization scheme for state-owned businesses, Poland was seizing the initiative to transform itself."
Another change was quietly taking place in Warsaw's approach to business education. That fall, in a joint effort with the Carlson School, the prestigious Warsaw School of Economics offered one of Poland's first MBA programs, the Warsaw Executive MBA--an 18-month degree program in which Polish students took classes offered by visiting Carlson School faculty and faculty from the Warsaw School of Economics. "The Humphrey Institute [at the University of Minnesota] had obtained a grant from the United States Agency for International Development to help the Warsaw School of Economics convert its curriculum," recalls Michael Houston, Carlson School associate dean of International Programs. "We became very involved with that effort, and the Executive MBA program evolved from comfort on both sides with offering that degree."
John Fossum, professor of human resources and industrial relations, was one of the first Carlson School professors to visit. He remembers how new Warsaw felt. "It was very different," Fossum says. "You could walk across any main street and not have to worry about traffic because there were relatively few private vehicles."
Poland's rapid development has spurred an ongoing evolution in the curriculum of the Warsaw Executive MBA, says Dorota Serafi n, managing director for the program at the Warsaw School of Economics. In the beginning, Serafin says, "the MBA degree was not well recognized in Poland," and classes focused heavily on the public sector. "There was a lotto be done to help the evolving free economy and emerging executive education market," she says.
From the start, students were attracted by the chance to apply cutting-edge knowledge to their work places. "I had to go to class and face all of these people who didn't care all that much about theory," says Piotr Ploszajski, chair in management theory at the Warsaw School of Economics. "They wanted me to tell them something they didn't know, or to shine a light into a different corner of something they already knew. Making that knowledge transfer from academia to practice was when I fell in love with the program."

Writing in any form is always and essentially an act of trust. The writer trusts that he has something to say, something that he is able to say, something worth saying. He trusts that an audience, even an audience consisting solely of his future self, will find it so. He trusts the words to communicate what he intends to communicate – a dubious proposition to anyone who has reflected on the nature of language. Even a writer who writes, intentionally, to deceive trusts, with the uneasy trust of the co-conspirator who can never be sure if his trust is well-placed. And he trusts those being deceived to be as gullible as he needs them to be – a dubious proposition for anyone who has ever studied history.
In this time of information overload, with some arguing for complete disclosure of one's personal life and others who wish everybody would keep some things to themselves, a new wrinkle has emerged. One has to trust that what he is sharing will not damn him in the eyes of some real or imagined future employer. The professional is supposed to be walled off from the personal – Facebook on the left hand and LinkedIn on the right, and never the twain should meet.
I think this is the most dubious proposition of all.
I'm not about to launch into a polemic in defense of full internet disclosure. There are others who can do that better than I can, mostly because I don't necessarily believe in it. But I write all of this as a maybe long-winded way of saying that its about to get personal.
But before I go further, please accept this comic that I did not draw:

I am getting MW3 soon approximately 2 days any advice for a noob ?
Like (0)
Anything helpful like what to do what not to do. Also I have not played any Cod games before this is my first one so please anything and everything positive and helpful you might want to say will really help me out.Any techniques anything .Thank you.
Don't get it, it will just frustrate you and make you angry unless you don't care about lag and all the other stuff wrong with this game, then camp, camp & camp until you get the hang of it so you don't start off to bad.
Oh and play on tactical and become best friends with drop shoting and strafing with stalker.
dont camp. campers are rejects who dont know how to play. unless its on like s&d or sometin
He's just starting, everyone camps when they first start, well at least everyone I know did.
Don't listen to anything anyone says about how to play the game. Play it, find your niche and stick with it. You will get lots of people angry because you don't play the way they play, no matter what you do. Welcome to COD..
Yeah get a different game. This game is garbage. Non-stop lag and their only solution is patching. It never works so i would try something like Killzone or Ghost Recon.
Well said crunch1200. I myself do not camp, although I did when I first started. As crunch 1200 says, you need to find the play style that is right for you. It's you that is spending the cash on buying this game so play it ANY way you feel you need to. Don't let the "bullys" get to you coz you don't play the way they do.
Try to make some freinds, that will help and give you some advise, Good People are out there, but sometimes stay quiet, because of all the smart mouth people ....... and a good nerve pill too keep ya calm, until ya get a feel for it
Welcome to the game
The first thing you need to learn is the layout of the maps and how to get from one place to another. You can watch gameplay on YouTube to see how people travel and where people will be waiting for you. Playing a bit of solo Spec Ops survival will also help you learn the maps.
For multiplayer, Free-for-all might be a good choice to start with because you can get used to shooting at live targets and you don't have to worry about how your performance effects your team because you will die a lot in the beginning. Finally, have fun!
Spec ops is a good place to get the layout of the maps and kill confirmed is a good mode to get used to the lanes of traffic and hotspots
hahaha love the other posts but unless you can deal with all kinds of bullshit, enjoy it. start out at default sensitivity and go higher over time. that's how I got good.
Don't get it, it's an awful, awful game.
If you want to have smooth multiplayer gameplay, throttle your Internet whenever you play, or sign up for the worst Internet plan you can. I won't give up my Internet for this piece of ****, but if you want to play smooth online, you need to do that. **** lag compensation!
Btw. As someone who has played Call of Duty 4 and later, Call of Duty 4 is amazing and is the best, the rest copied it. Black ops and Modern Warfare 3 got stale, and Modern Warfare 3 lags so bad and has deathstreaks that will piss you off like DEAD MANS HAND. If someone falls down after you shoot them enough and they're on their back GTFO! Better safe than sorry.
This! I highly recommend COD4 over this, the best one IMO.
Welcome Blackstar
First and foremost - Always remember that it's just a game. Play for the fun of it. If you aren't in it for fun; above everything else (especially in the beginning), you'll just find yourself getting frustrated, and rage quitting. Forget about your kill/death ratio, your wins and loses, and all the other stats and just enjoy the game. Naturally, you're gonna get your ass handed to you a helluva lot at first, so watch the kill cams; learn from both your mistakes, and your opponents' skills.
Next, don't get locked into just one weapon. When you're starting out, that's easy to do. Try 'em all - primarys and secondarys. What works well on one map/game type, may not work well in another
Again, welcome.
Keep your powder dry,
Noob starter kit:
ACR equiped with silencer and extended mags (Gold Camo for try hards)
Dual FMG's as secondary weapon
Blind Eye pro, Assassin pro, Stalker pro
UAV,Care Package, and Predator missle for assault package
and Death Streak should be dead man's hand
Thank me now haha
even though you have to be 50+ to get the ACR.... moron
Trade it in now, might as well just wait for BLOPS2 since you'll have to drop way too much money on this POS if you want all the new maps and stuff when a brand new game is coming out soon.
It has potential to be a great game. The only people that love it are the ones that don't deal with the lag comp and pull off over 30 kills every match. When you move 10 steps and get put on your a** every time you spawn it gets old and frustrating real fast.
Strictly on a personal level, I disagree with you. I've got a sub 0.50 k/d/r, have never even come close to 30 kills in a match and been killed so fast coming out of a spawn you'd've thought the enemy player and I were conjoined twins, but I still love this game. Does it have it's issues? Yep, and the lag/spawn issues are the worst of them. Well, those and the fact that the AA-12 is (imho) underpowered (compared to it's real world counterpart); needs to be buffed . But, I just consider them small stuff and don't let 'em hamper my enjoyment of the game. Because in the end, that's all it is - a game.
Having said all that, I realize there are players out there who are very stats and/or achievement oriented; and more power to them. It's part of their enjoyment of the game experience; nor would I diminish their greater anger/frustration - in comparison to mine - over any issues the game has. Each to his/her own
As for me, I bought the hardened edition, and it's among the best $100 I ever spent.
Keep your powder dry,
I love this game and still deal with the lag comp. Thing is if none of us liked it, none of us would be bitching about it and we would all be playing Black Ops instead. This is an amazing game when garbage isn't happening (which is rare) and none of you can deny that. The other day I got into the most PERFECT lobby and stayed there for an hour and a half solid and played some of the most fun games I've ever played in any COD series.
Don't bother getting it yet. The game is still completely broken. I would hold off for another month to see if they actually figure out how to patch it. I wouldn't bother waiting for Blops 2 either as that will likely be completely broken when it comes out. They never fixed the first Blops so I have some pretty major doubts that the lag will be fixed when the new one comes out.
MW2 was the last working COD and even that has it's issues because Activision made them rush and whore out their game. That is why the majority of the staff took off to Respawn.
if you liked mw2 and black ops. you might be disappointed friend. there are some great features about it but the lag is so bad. unlike any cod ive played. the spawns are even worse. plus the new one comes out in a short time. to much extra to spend in dlcs for a short time. stick to the other two. as for the post above me...modern warfare/infinity ward and black ops treyarch are owned by activision, but are two totally different style games. its apples and oranges to compare side by side. not buying a treyarch cod because of being unhappy with this one is dumb. not the same

I wouldn't skip Black ops 2 because of MW3, I would skip it because the first Black Ops was and still is a broken mess. The lag compensation might not be as horrific as MW3 but it is still absolutely terrible when compared to MW1 and MW2.
Every CoD has a good side and a bad side. I own Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Call of Duty: World at War, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, and I preordered Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. If you liked CoD 4, or MW2 then MW3 will be no problem. If you were more into Black Ops then just wait for Black Ops 2 or get World at War. If you have not played any CoD previously get MW3 but please be aware that CoD MW3 is still a work in progress and they are constantly trying to fix the issues. I try not to get to angry about the lag issues that started for me after the mose recent patch because I myself develop games and have my own online shooter. Now IW is different than me, I fixed the connectivity issues first whilst they are seeming to put it last on their list because they want to get the maps and other money making things out of the way. I think once all that has been taken care of connectivity will no longer be an issue.
i bet you wish you never asked with all these replies, lol
it is a great game, it has its issues and it will at times make you angry, but when you do get on the good side of lag you can feel like a god, id grab it second hand rather than buy it new though
My Advice
1 - Buy BO, MW2 or even COD4
2 - If you must buy MW3, get it used (should be easy to find considering the amount of people selling the game
3 - Play how you want
4 - Use whatever gun you want
5 - Do not listen to people who use "12 year old" logic (which summarizes 3 and 4)
6 - Play as best as you can, and remember that even if you get massacred it may not be you because the connections/matchmaking in MW3 are not very good (back to point 1)
7- remember, BO2 is around the corner
8 - You do not have to listen to me either. MW3 can be fun (hell most of us still play it even with the constant frustration)
Thanks everyone for your advice I see the replies are slowing down fyi even though I'm 13 I won't whine like what iI have seen people my age do in youtube videos thanks for all your tips/advice guys.
just to be clear mate, I have no issues with 12 year olds...
I have issues with immature people, no matter how old they are (12 year or logic)
Have a great time and welcome to the COD community.
If you MUST buy this POS, then play how you want. RLBL gives some great tips for you.
Just note, that with the current match making and lag comp system they have in place, you might be on the bad side of lag. I can have some great games at times, but then from out of no where my gun starts shooting marshmallows and I can't kill anybody. it is very inconsistent.
My personal favorite weapons are AK47, ACR, MP7, P90 and UMP45. Setup different classes for different scenarios and don't be afraid to change classes mid-game. You need to constantly adjust your play style to better the enemy. If you get killed running a certain path, flank around the complete opposite direction next time. Do not run mindlessly to the same spot over and over again.
Don't play split screen.
DON'T CAMP!!!. You will not get better by sitting in a corner waiting for a kill. I camped when I first started playing COD and realized how boring and stupid it was. Learn to play the game properly. You're gonna get destroyed at first and it'll probably take you a COD or 2 (even other FPS or 3PS games will help a little) to get good but it'll be worth it in the long run. It's a lot more fun....
Get the game an do one thing an one thing only CAMP CAMP CAMP CAMP CAMP 'cos as you can see alot of ppl hate on it an it's about the second most annoying thing in this game.
lol, you bastard!
But... if you are going to camp, camp in a smart place that gets you killed. And move to a new location, because someone is coming back for you
Of you can lol@ yourself for dying uncontrollably, you will be fine. Half my deaths are simply out of my control. I'm a decent player, have always only played TDM (on all games), and have a horrible kill/death ratio. it dropped in BO and is dismal on this game. Not that I care, but it is a reflection of gameplay quality.
The lagg is BAD, But if you can live with it, you're good. Every once on a while you get an awesome match. That will keep you hooked until your next one. Lol. I get them about once per week.
Also....people have been compensating for lagg by camping. Watch for people laying prone in walkways.
As Crunch said earlier find your playstyle and enjoy the game.
Dont let people tell you how they want you to play. If you want to camp by sitting in a corner all game waiting for someone to come in the room then have at it.
I am on the move most maps but sometimes camping just cant be avoided, if you want to have any chance of not going 2-15.
Save your money, try and buy a secondhand copy or rent the game first. As it is a frustrating game as it runs so bad and you may not like it. And imo there are better games coming up for release soon.
Keep your money this game is broken beyond repair.Wait until november but wait for the reviews after release and if it passes the tests buy Blops 2
I must say it is quite amusing to read all of the replies in this post. It's amazing how many people thing this game is a broken pile of crap.

Lib Tech T.Rice BTX Pro Split 12/13
The T.Rice Pro Splits takes Travis' X-Games winning board, incorporates Horsepower construction into it and then takes a chainsaw to it, cutting it right down the middle to give you the splitboard of your dreams. As with the regular T.Rice, the Pro Splits uses Lib's C2BTX construction - which combines Magne Traction with the best features of Banana Tech and camber profiles - as well as all the other goodies found on Mr Rice's favourite ride. However, the ultralight Horsepower construction really makes a difference when you're climbing in split mode, with the basalt fibres adding torsional rigidity for rock solid descents.

Flu Season Claims More Than a Dozen Lives in Arkansas
By: Jocelyn Tovar, KARK 4 NEWS
Updated: January 18, 2013
Some people have taken to wearing surgical masks to protect against the bug, but do they work?
"Generally in the public it has not been recommended," said Dr. Virgincita Fuentes with UAMS.
Both she and officials with the state's Health Department are warning Arkansans not to be lulled into a false sense of security.
They added that the medical masks you can buy in most neighborhood pharmacies don't offer much protection.
Dr. Fuentes said if you do come down with the flu you can best protect the rest of the public by simply staying away.
"If you can't stay home and isolate yourself from the community," she said. "Than you should wear a mask."
However each health professional we spoke with said they can't stress enough how important it is to get the flu vaccine.
"There's no substitute for those measures that we take," said Dr. Fuentes.

Published price: US$ 64.95 Out of printTranslated and annotated by Willard R. Trask. Edited and introduced by Frances Wilson. Bound in cloth, printed with Gamblers at Ridotto by Johann Tischbein. Set in Palatino with Snell Roundhand display. 24 pages of colour plates. 352 pages. Book size: 9½" × 6¾". |
'I was all my life the victim of my senses; I have delighted in going astray and I have constantly lived in error… My follies are the follies of youth. You will see that I laugh at them, and if you are kind you will laugh at them with me'
Giacomo Casanova – soldier, preacher, gambler and quintessential scoundrel – tore a swathe across the courts and capitals of 18th-century Europe. Using a bible, a rope of knotted blankets and a dish of macaroni he escaped the clutches of the Venetian inquisition – the only man to do so. He matched wits with Voltaire in word-play as thrilling as a fencing match. And when finally defeated in the battle for the heart of teenage strumpet La Charpillon, he ended up in Bow Street Magistrates Court. Frances Wilson has selected Casanova's most formative and brilliant adventures, each a triumph of story-telling and redolent with his exuberant wit and charm. Accompanied by over two dozen 18th-century paintings, here are the highlights of one of the most entertaining autobiographies ever written.
Ian Kelly, author of Beau Brummell: The Ultimate Dandy, whose biography of Giacomo Casanova appears next year, salutes Casanova's most famous work and examines modern attitudes to a figure whose achievements have been obscured by a scandalous reputation.
Casanova would be bemused today to find that he is remembered almost exclusively for his sexual odyssey. He was a fiercely proud intellectual and polymath who worked at different times as a violinist, soldier, mathematician, writer, doctor and even librarian, and who originally trained to be a priest. The memoirs that lay unpublished at his death in 1798, however, have brought him not the fame he sought but two centuries of notoriety. Lorenzo Da Ponte, the poet and librettist of Mozart's operas, remarked in 1828 that 'Casanova has said everything. Perhaps too much. And sometimes what he has said is not quite the truth'. Casanova's candour about his private life has tended to overshadow the many other vital insights the memoirs contain. Some of them, such as his fascination with food–writing and with the cabala, for instance, are only now finding resonance with modern readers. But how much of the History of My Life is true? Or rather, what truths does it reflect? The thing, after all, as Casanova said, is to 'dazzle'.
Casanova was the son of an actress, brought up for the priesthood in the decadent city–state of Venice. But most of his life was spent on the road, at multiple 'careers' from London to St Petersburg to Prague and even Istanbul. Along the way he travelled over forty thousand miles, made and lost a couple of fortunes, founded two state lotteries, wrote forty–two books, along with plays, philosophical and mathematical treatises, opera libretti, poetry and 3,600 pages of memoirs, whilst recording hundreds of meals as well as – famously – his affairs and encounters with dozens of women and a handful of men. His energy was, indeed, dazzling.
The History of My Life has traditionally been rubbished in Anglo–American culture. Mauled by Harold Nicolson and traduced by Hollywood, Casanova has become an adjective without being an advert for anything anyone but a teenage boy might aspire to. Why this should be so is worthy of a book in itself. His memoirs are only now emerging from several decades of resuscitative academic work, since the final publication of the unabridged original in the 1960s, as a vital historical testament and one of the most important – and alluring – documents in the history of modern Europe. Empresses and gamblers, princes and prostitutes, nuns and impostors, opera stars and thieves; all received Casanova's intense, warm but sardonic gaze, all equal objects of his curiosity, his pen, and often more intimate attentions. Which is what made him – as well as seemingly a one–man public health–risk – such an unsurpassed social historian. The truth, he wrote, is in the detail. Yet by allotting his love life equal prominence in his writings to his many other passions, Giacomo Casanova assured his infamy.
His many works of a philosophical, mathematical and economic character are virtually unknown. So too his translation into modern Italian of Homer's Iliad, his poetry, drama, his five volume science–fiction novel and his works on calendars, canon law and cubic geometry. All these are in the shadow of his voluminous History of My Life, written between 1790 and his death in 1798. The story of its publication, its slow 'unveiling' – in effect between 1822 and 1962 – is the story of Casanova's gradual evaluation and re–evaluation. And only now is it slowly dawning on the wider world that most of what Casanova wrote is almost certainly true. This may not sound like a glowing testimonial to his reliability, but Casanova's reputation has come a long way.
The history of the memoirs themselves began twenty–two years after Casanova's death, when Herr Frederick Gentzel offered to the publishing house of Brockhaus in Leipzig the French–written original in the possession of Casanova's nephew–in–law. It appeared first in print thence in a German translation, between 1822 and 1828. The first French edition was re–translated from the German. As with the historiography of Shakespeare's plays, there are various 'originals' of the History of My Life, some of them only to be glimpsed via the later translations or editions. The one full 'original' that does exist is held in the vaults of the Brockhaus bank to this day. Having survived World War II air attacks, it was conveyed to Wiesbaden in 1944 where no less a person than Winston Churchill immediately enquired whether it was amongst surviving treasures from Dresden. But it was not published in its entirety in English until the sixties.
The story of Casanova's rubbishing in English is in part a tale of mistranslations. Cited among his 'lies' and discrepancies was his height: given as 5 feet 9 inches by one calculation from the memoirs, 6 feet 2 inches by another, 1.86 metres by a third translation. On examination, the first figure turns out to be a miscalculation, based on the old measure of feet, which was a tenth longer than the present. All three figures then fall within a wig–curl of 6 feet 1½ inches. But the damage to Casanova's trustworthiness – and supposed vanity – endured.
Casanova frequently elides dates and places; sometimes as any of us might when recalling events from decades ago, sometimes through a less honourable but forgivable intention to streamline his narrative. Why, though, did Casanova write at such length and with such apparent frankness? Is there not something inherently untrustworthy about a memoir that details trysts, seductions and adventures that run suspiciously close to the favoured narrative styles of contemporary fiction and erotica? It should not be assumed that Casanova initially or consistently wanted publication for his memoirs. He admitted that he was writing for the sake of his mental health as much as anything else. Casanova was certainly a devoted writer, writing up to eleven hours a day, seven days a week in his bleak grace–and–favour residence in Duchov castle. The History of My Life grapples with memory and with rendering both sense and anecdote – not at all the same things – out of a life, with the clock ticking on Casanova's ability to do either. He died with twenty–four years of his tumultuous life still unrecorded.
There is no question that at latter stages of his writing the memoirs, when he was showing drafts to the Prince de Ligne (who said he could not read a single chapter without envy, astonishment or an erection), Casanova had every intention of some sort of publication. Yet at other times, he appears to be writing for himself. He was fully aware that the entire text of the memoirs presented a completely unrealistic prospect to any contemporary publishing house, and that even in serial form they would not and could not be published as a money–making scheme for him. It seems inconceivable that Casanova – a man with the gift of application to many fine–detailed tasks but also mercurial, variegated, passionate – should have spent all eight years writing the memoirs with the same thoughts in mind as to what to do with them. The individuality of his spirit keeps hijacking his attempts to stake a claim on respectability as a travel–writer, historian or philosophe; he can be risibly pretentious at times, and all the more human for it. He also lies. Unnoticed by many readers over the years, however, is the redemptive extent to which he chronicles heartbreaking failures and misadventures as well as his 'conquests'.
Though in context his sexual odyssey no longer seems exceptional, what he chose to do with his memories of it in his dying years turned out to be so. Perhaps his claim on posterity is to be the first – or the most consequential – memoirist to posit sexuality as primary to an understanding of self. And in telling, just as in being in love – as Casanova is keen to admit – there is self–delusion, there are lies to lovers and there are lies to oneself. The truth the History reflects is less an historical one than a recognisably human one: self–knowledge, like love, is not so much blind as self–deluded.
