Mourinho: Worst season of my career
Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho remained non-committal about where he will be next term after his side lost 2-1 in the Copa del Rey final against local rivals Atletico Madrid to round off the "worst season" of his life.
Diego Costa's first-half equalizer canceled out Cristiano Ronaldo's early header at the Bernabeu, before Miranda's extra-time goal delivered Atletico's first victory over Real for 14 years.
Madrid's frustration told and, with Mourinho having been sent from the technical area during normal time, Ronaldo saw red in the 114th minute for kicking out at Atletico captain Gabi – who was himself dismissed in the frantic final minutes for a second bookable offense.
The defeat rounded off a trophyless campaign for Real and Mourinho, disregarding the Spanish Supercopa, prompting the Portuguese to declare: "This is the worst season of my life."
Mourinho has been widely tipped to return to Chelsea but reiterated that he would not make any announcement about his future until he has a meeting with the club president Florentino Perez at the end of the season.
He said: "I have a contract here for three more years. I still haven't sat down with the president to talk about the future."
On rumors touting Paris Saint-Germain coach Carlo Ancelotti as his potential replacement, he continued: "I think it's normal that they talk about Ancelotti. That's normal, if I go to Chelsea, or here or there… that's normal for people to talk abut that. We will make it official when me and the president sit down and decide what to do.
"That's the way it should be. There are still two games in the league to play. We have to play the league and respect the other teams we are playing – Real Sociedad and Osasuna – who still have objectives, like qualifying for the Champions League and avoiding relegation."
If Mourinho does leave the Spanish capital this summer, he will have won just three trophies in his three-year tenure at the club: the 2011 Copa del Rey, the 2011/12 Primera Division title and the Spanish Supercopa – traditional season curtain raiser – this term.
He defended his record in his first two years in charge of Los Blancos, but admitted he had "failed" this year.
"I failed this season," he said. "I think it's normal in my first season that we won the cup – a cup the club had not won in 20 years – reached the semi-final of the Champions League, fought virtually to the end for a league that they (Barcelona) won year after year… the team everyone said was the best in the world.
"My second season was not a failure because we won the league against the best team in the world and got to the Champions League semi-final and lost on penalties, and I'm sorry, because I can't take penalties.
"The third season is a failure. This is the worst season of my life. For many coaches it would be good, but for me it's terrible. I had never finished a season without one of the important trophies. The Supercopa does not satisfy me."
Mourinho also praised goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois – on loan at Atletico from Chelsea – who made two outstanding saves in extra time to deny Gonzalo Higuain and Mesut Ozil, but also cursed his team's luck, as Ronaldo, Ozil and Karim Benzema all hit the woodwork, while Ozil had a shot blocked on the line by Atletico defender Juanfran.
"He is a fantastic young goalkeeper with great potential and I think his club has to decide his future and that club is Chelsea," he said.
"He made fantastic saves but they were not just fantastic saves – Saint Mary must have been behind the goal. Three shots off the post is too much."
Mourinho refused to comment on the second-half incident which saw him sent to the stands.

A few hours ago, Spotify announced what could be a momentous new feature for the Web: the ability to embed and stream tracks, albums, and playlists into Web sites or blogs or anywhere on the Web. Upon reading the press release, it seems as if any Spotify user can easily embed any track or playlist into a Web page and that music can be streamed directly from the page (a la YouTube). Unfortunately, the Spotify Play Button doesn't perform as advertised. Instead of offering true embedded music playing, it's more like a blast from the past. You cannot actually play the music from the Web.
You can now create embeddable code for music tracks or playlists into a Web page, but it's not a menu item in the Spotify app or anything simple like that. You have to go to a special Spotify developer page and plug in your info to get embed code. Once it's on your Web page, anyone can technically listen to it, though it doesn't play on the page; it has to open up the Spotify app and play it from there. This means that anyone who wants to listen has to get through the barrier of installing Spotify and creating an account.
What would really light up the Web is if Spotify made it so you do not need its app and found a way to embed its ads and music directly into Web pages using Flash or HTML5 or whatever. Embedding needs to be an easier task as well. It should emulate YouTube and other free video sites. Currently, this reminds me more of the pre-YouTube days when videos would play through Windows Media Player or whatever video player you had installed on your machine. For embedded streaming to really take off, it needs to work within the Web, not around it. It can be done, too. Lala (before it was shut down 2 years ago), Pandora, and many services stream music directly from the Web. SoundCloud does it as well. Why not Spotify?
Assuming Web site owners start using this feature, it definitely won't hurt the state of music on the Web. Spotify has already been pushing the industry forward (or some might say backward) by making music free to listen to and allowing users to share playlists and albums on Facebook. It's app platform is also interesting and well thought out. I just wish it would have finished this Play Button before releasing it.
Below is my newest Spotify playlist, embedded for your pleasure. You can listen to it if you have the Spotify app and have registered for a free account. To create embed code, head to this developer page.
Update: We spoke with a Spotify representative on the phone. Currently, it seems that Spotify needs its desktop client to insert the ads and get the accountability it needs to pay artists. Sadly, this also means that mobile Web users who click on a widget will not be able to play tracks unless they pay $10 per month to subscribe to Spotify premium. However, if you're a Web site owner, there are ways to modify the embed code to change things like width, etc. Here's a link to some modified ways to plug it into WordPress. It sounds as if the embed section may be built out better in the future.

hey.. does anyone know if u get all the calories from fruits and veggies when u juice them? i juice a lot and would really love to know. i've been trying to find out on the internet but there doesn't seem to be a lot of info
Hi Mrs. Daigle ,
What type of juicer do you use ? I have been into juicing for years , started with a crappy little Juiceman extractor , then got a JL power juicer , then moved up to a Champion , and now have an Omega Vert 330 hd , which I love , and I think does the best job as far as nutrition goes . So , as far as " all the calories " ...with juicing , you do get most of the calories , but very little of the fiber . Also , the high speed juicers can damage nutrients and enzymes that are in what you are juicing through heat and friction . What you are doing when juicing ,really , is seperating the juice from the pulp and fiber , which is a double edged sword . You get vitamins and minerals and antioxidants , sure , but also lots of sugars and carbs , that have been seperated from the fiber that slows down thier conversion to blood sugar , so you can really spike your insulin levels . The fiber slows that down . People are all about the GI , or glycemic index , but more people in the know now are looking at GL , or glycemic load , which factors in the fiber content of a food against it's carbs , to better predict how consuming the food will affect blood sugar levels . Anyway ...as always , whole foods are best . That is why I also have , and use daily , a Vitamix . With that , I get the whole food . I do juice , but not every day . Hope that helps , please feel free to ask any other questions you might have that you think I might be able to help you with . Be Well !

NEMC cross-country finals
PINE RIVER GOLF COURSE, STANDISH — Ogemaw Heights continued its run of North East Michigan cross country championships Saturday at Standish's Pine River Golf Course, winning its sixth straight girls title and third straight boys championship.
The results may have been the same, but the races were not.
The Falcon boys dominated the team scoring, with the Falcons finishing 29 points ahead of second place John Glenn and Ogemaw's top runner, Martin Nelkie, winning the individual race by 31 seconds to clinch the season championship.
In the girls' race, Ogemaw edged SSC by eight points, overcoming a deficit coming into the race after the Panthers had won both regular-season jamborees. Tawas Area's Emily Short won the individual race in dramatic, though unfortunate, fashion.
Boys Race
There was little doubt that Ogemaw Heights would win the team title, and the Falcons didn't disappoint with their performance on Saturday. Ogemaw scored 28 points to John Glenn's 57, with Standish-Sterling (70), Tawas Area (97) and Pinconning (106) following.
Nelkie finished in 17:04 -- the 15th fastest time ever in the league finals since records started being kept in 1982. He likely would have broken the 17-minute mark if not for briefly getting lost on the course in the final mile.
Standish-Sterling's Ryan Pickvet broke out to a big lead, knowing his best shot at topping Nelkie was to build an insurmountable margin. That didn't happen as Nelkie passed up Pickvet on the second mile and built a 10-second lead by the two-mile mark.
Pickvet finished second in 17:35, with the Falcons' Brian Valley taking third at 17:37. Valley's finish also pushed him into the top 10 times for Ogemaw Heights juniors in the league finals race.
"I felt it was a breakthrough race for Martin and Brian," said Ogemaw coach Doug Grezeszak. "The rest of the team ran about normal on the notoriously slow course.
"If Brian and Martin run those races again they should both qualify for the state finals by finishing in the top 15 at Saturday's regional meet."
John Glenn's Brandon Dailey (4th, 18:18) and Kelsey Allen (5th, 18:24) followed.
The Falcons' low score was helped by Casey Taylor (6th, 18:35), Mike Lentz (8th, 19:04) and Steven Wysocki (10th, 19:17).
The Panthers had hoped to edge Glenn for the second-place spot, but it didn't quite happen despite Pickvet's second-place individual finish.
"Ryan took charge right away because Nelkie has been racing well," said SSC coach Dennis Pruder. "One of the things I like about Ryan is that he's not afraid to take chances. He caught a few people by surprise and that helped him in the conference totals."
Qwinn Shorkey finished 12th in 19:46, with Cole Manning (17th, 20:36), Frank Michalke (19th, 20:41) and Clarence Johnson (21st, 20:50) following.
"Qwinn, Cole, Frank, Clarence and Aaron Colamarino all ran very strong races," Pruder said. "They have given 100 percent all year. Now the challenge is to go into the regional meet and have every person hit a PR."
Tawas Area was led by Guy Cotter (7th, 18:46) and Tim Glasgow (18th, 20:36) while Pinny was paced by Derrek Lucynski (9th, 19:06) and Drew Hoder (14th, 20:18).
Ogemaw also got a boost from the return to the course of George Farmer, who was injured during practice less than two weeks prior.
"He has worked so hard to rehab his sprained ankle and finished the race in a respectable fashion today for his first race back from the injury," Grezeszak said. "He has been at Pinnacle Rehab every day for about an hour and then gone to the pool for lap swim ... for over an hour every day to maintain his fitness."
With six of the top Falcons returning next season, Grezeszak hopes to go out in style as he announced he would step down as the boys cross country coach after next season's campaign.
"It is time for some younger person to take over the team and with this amount of notice hopefully someone can be found for the position," he said. "We have won 13 league titles since I came to Ogemaw Heights and restarted the program in the fall of 1987. Maybe next year can be 14, and four in a row. That would be a great way to end it."
This year's focus turns to Saturday's regional race at Delta College, where the Falcons and John Glenn will race at the Division 2 level and SSC, Tawas and Pinny will race Division 3.
Grezeszak said his team's chances of advancing as a group to the state finals have dimmed somewhat as a couple of other teams in the region have stepped up their performances.
"Marysville has definitely moved ahead of us," he said. "We are definitely in the No. 4 or 5 spot now. We are capable, but must get up and run a great race with all seven runners if we are to make it."
Girls Race
While the boys' race highlighted Ogemaw Heights' dominance, the girls' race was quite different.
Ogemaw Heights edged Standish-Sterling with 41 points to the Panthers' 49. Tawas (62) took third, followed by Pinny (78) and Glenn (134).
Standish-Sterling's Karina Pierce bolted out to the lead, with Ogemaw Heights' Cara Crawford and Tawas Area's Chelsea Smith following. The Braves' Emily Short kept her own pace, lurking back in the pack until closing the gap over the second half of the race.
Still, Pierce held a lead of several seconds coming down the stretch run, but with the finish line just 10 meters away, she collapsed from exhaustion. Pierce was able to get back on her feet and stagger across the finish, but not before Short flew by to win the race in 21:05.
Pierce took second in 21:12, with Crawford (3rd, 21:30) and Smith (4th, 21:37) following.
The backs of the Standish-Sterling team sweatshirts say "Push Your Limits," and there was no doubt Pierce had done just that.
"I swear," Pruder said. "Her legs can't always keep up with her heart."
"(The girls) battle every day, and I love the camaraderie and support they give. David vs. Goliath just doesn't always turn out the way it should."
Meanwhile, Falcon girls coach Rick Frank's team, which had been painfully young to start the year, culminated its year of improvement by overcoming its two second-place jamboree finishes to win take the finals, with the league finals scoring serving as a tiebreaker, the overall league title.
"Somehow, we did it again," said Frank of his squad's sixth straight NEMC championship. "We kept the possibility of a league title open with two second-place finishes and getting closer in the second one, but losing one of (last year's) top five runners.
"Again the names and faces change, but the Ogemaw tradition of wining girls league cross country titles continue."
The Falcons finished the year with just two of last year's top seven, and both of those were just sophomores. Frank got a big boost with Crawford, a senior, coming out for cross country the first time.
"With a lot of summer training it looked like she was going to be a very nice surprise to our team, and she was," he said. "Having over 20 runners we had some potential, but wow, it was raw and not in any type of shape for the rigors of a cross country season.
"Many freshmen had trouble running for a distance of one mile, let alone a (5K) race in the beginning practices."
A lot of those young faces proved to be the difference Saturday. Following Crawford were freshman twins Cheyenne (6th, 22:28) and Shiloh (9th, 22:41) St. Andrew, sophomore Hannah LeForce (10th, 23:15) and sophomore Jorie Diehl (13th, 23:27). LeForce and Diehl were the only returnees from 2007 of the top five Falcon finishers, but both were nursing injuries.
"We knew we would be in a battle with Standish," Frank said. "We worked hard to win position-for-position (against SSC's runners) and hopefully would get a little help from the other people in the league.
"We knew Cara would be hard-pressed to catch Pierce, so two freshmen and two sophomores nursing injuries had to get the job done.
"I saw every one of their faces at 2-1/4 miles ... all four faces were saying, 'I don't know how I'm going to keep going to the finish.' I just told each of them, especially the freshmen, 'Just keep pushing the pain will go away and when you cross the finish line you are a champion.'
"They kept things close, they battle hard and were able to score eight fewer points than Standish when it was all totaled."
For Standish-Sterling, Sara Stanley (7th, 22:28) and Ashley Pickvet (8th, 22:38) were the second and third finishers, followed by Alyssa Pruder (15th, 23:51) and Ashley White (17th, 24:24).
"Ogemaw simply outran us," Pruder said. "I am so proud of our girls; more proud than I could ever say.
"We have been on top in a lot of races this year but I've never been more proud of them. They congratulated the Ogemaw girls, picked each other up and started talking about the next meet. I have a lot of respect for them. They always work hard and play hard."
Top 3 full teams, top 15 individual runners from each race advance to state finals
Boys: Ogemaw Heights 28, John Glenn 57, Standish-Sterling 70, Tawas Area 97, Pinconning 106
Girls: Ogemaw Heights 41, Standish-Sterling 49, Tawas Area 62, Pinconning 78, John Glenn 134

Ah RO, my first MMO. I use to play it 7-8 years ago in Valhalla RO and a few others. I still reminisce about it comparing to other MMOs. I miss old Payon, there were only 2 job class, endless hours getting the extra 10 job levels to 50 as an acolyte, and fighting to defend our guild castle in WOE.
Oh good times.
I play RO from time to time nowadays. I was hardcore into the game when it first came out, I spent countless hours of my life in game. I really liked it because it reminded me alot of old school RPG games. I miss Payon too Seng! Anyway, still a great game to this day... These days I've been playing alot of Dragon Nest. I found a huge game directory (mmo-play.com) where you can still download Ragnarok if anyone is interested in starting back up with me. Inbox me if interested!
Recently dropped from playing on weekends to not playing at all since last April at iRO.
I had so much fun memories Sadly I guess it finally ended after all these years. My guildies left for WoW and whenever I try to look for another guild to check out, they don't really seem to fit my...casual playing style as most of the guilds require active levelling and participation, which I can't really dedicate that much to. Additionally, they all sound like power-hungry wolves that can't even hold a casual conversation without being detracted to trying to find out what's the best equipment for them.
But I still draw fanarts hahah
I haven't continued my comic in a while but here
3 pages of a comic so far oh well the good old days...
Prayers. For my father, relatives and friends.
Still play the game... First MMO that I've become addicted to..
Waiting for my buds to add me up in my contact.. deleting this one soon
I'm sad that games will never be like RO anymore, it was the perfect idea of mmo, kind of reminds me SOA..do some grinding here and there or go farm mats to make a hat or just hang out in town with guildies..I miss that. I play just a bit of iRO, mostly qRO and some heRO.
When you really want something, the whole universe conspires to make it happen.
RO4ever! ROk On!
Waiting for my buds to add me up in my contact.. deleting this one soon
You should all try FlawlessRO..
Its a low rate server and balanced.. NO 3RD JOBS
It's in Top 4 RO servers in xtreme top 100
Waiting for my buds to add me up in my contact.. deleting this one soon
This is the first online game I played, and until now I'm playing it.
I'm on TheoRO. It's new and there's not much players. :'(
Forever offline ------- *Giggle*
when I get my own computer I have thought about downloading it again and continue with my character which I think is either a.... Priest or an Acolyte
Or I might start over and make a Super Novice
Watching Sailor Moon Crystal whenever I can
Love ragnarok. <3 I used to play RRO (ragnarok revolution online) But it closed :/
I miss my high wiz.
Check shiTTear
I'm still on iRO Chaos server occasionally. When I want to visit familiar places and remember long lost faces.
Wow, so old. I remember my friend playing this back in HS and he'd let me make characters. Then he kept deleting them. And the test server which was free but virtually rolled back every other day so you'd make no progress any way.
I don't play anymore. Met some great people back in the day but it always felt so very unsocial on there after about 2006 ish.
I'm stranger, this land is stranger. Together we're strangers...
AHHHH I LOVE THIS GAMEEEEEE the music is amazing <3
high priesttttt is the best..
i'm thinking of starting ragnarok again
I play We are Online aka Deliverance Online Aka Chrono Online
The rates are 50x50x30x

2014 Honda Odyssey: New York Auto Show
What is it?
The Honda Odyssey is a popular minivan that offers three-row seating, a 248-horsepower V6 and a standard automatic transmission. The updated 2014 Honda Odyssey gets a revised interior, an updated exterior and several new comfort and convenience features. Perhaps the most useful important addition to the new Odyssey is an industry-first vacuum onboard cleaner, which will help with cleaning up after messy kids.
How much?
Honda hasn't announced pricing for the Odyssey, but we expect its base price to remain similar to today's $29,500 figure.
When can you get it?
The new Odyssey should go on sale this summer.
Add it to your shopping list because...
The current Odyssey is already very popular with minivan-driving families. The latest model offers new styling inside and out to keep it competitive. It also includes a host of new features, including a built-in vacuum cleaner, dubbed HondaVAC. The system was developed with Shop-Vac and comes standard on the high-end Odyssey Touring Elite. The new Odyssey also offers an updated interior. It features new gadgets like push-button start, cloud-based infotainment and HD radio. For safety-conscious families, the 2014 Honda Odyssey also adds lane departure warning and forward collision warning systems to its options list.
Other cars to consider:
Chrysler Town & Country - The Town & Country comes standard with a rear seat DVD player and power sliding doors. Resale value isn't as good as the Odyssey, but there are often better deals available.
Nissan Quest - The highly versatile Quest offers a great value for shoppers who don't mind its unusual styling. In addition to a low base price, the Quest is often available with strong incentives from Nissan.
Toyota Sienna - The Sienna is one of the Odyssey's top competitors. While it doesn't offer a vacuum cleaner, its starting price is around $2,000 less than the Odyssey's.
Used Ford Flex - Ford's upscale Flex crossover isn't really a minivan. But it does boast a low entry height thanks to car-based platform. That means it offers a minivan-like driving experience. And for those who like extra oomph, it's also available with Ford's powerful EcoBoost V6.

>>Salam sister nausheen
Thnx for your promt reply
If you are from the indian root you must be aware of a movie called Nikah based on this topic of halala,by watching this movie many muslims use to think that such thing really exist.
Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah.
I m not sure if I understand fully what you mean.
1. A woman is not allowed to marry a man with the intention of getting divorced so she can marry her former husband. This is absolutely true.
2. She is not allowed (in very specific conditions) to marry her ex husband. This is also true.
When situtaion 2 exists, ie in conditions when she cannot re-marry her ex, she can still marry other men. When she marries, it should be with the intention of upholding the sacradness of the marriage bond - however, for any reason if her marriage does not work this second time, and she divorces - she can now marry anyone, include her first ex- husband.
To illustrate further, condider the following
Case A) after the first divorce (the first utterance), when her term if iddah has expiered - She is free to marry anyone. This means ANYONE, ie she can even marry her ex. husband. In other words, if the ex-husband and ex wife want to get together once again, they need a new marraige contract.
Case B)
1. She is divorced by one utterance of and her term of iddah has not yet expired. The husband and wife want to get together once again - they can, and they do not need any new marriage contract.
However in this case, mind you she cannot marry any other man till her term of iddah has not expired.
2. Now, after they get together, they again and problems and things excallate to a second utterance of divorce - she observes her iddah.
Before the term has expired, if they decide to get together, they can, and there is no need of a new marriage contract. However, if the term of iddah has expiried, she is free to marry anyone, including her ex-husband - but they will need a new marriage contract.
3. If they got together before her term of iddah had expired a second time, and things did not get normal between them. A third time she is divorced - she again observes her iddah. Before her term expired a third time, he can take her back without the need of any new marraige contract.
However, if her term of iddah expired this third time, they cannot re-marry with a new marraige contract. Now she can only marry another man.
If however her marrage with this another man does not work (if and only if)- and she is divorced, her term of iddah has expiered - she is free to marry anyone - anyone means even her first ex-husband.
So you see, her first ex-husband becomes allowed for marriage to her but only after she has had a failed marriage with another man - IN THIS SPECIFIC SITUATION. This does not mean she was 'supposed to marry another man - in-order-to be able to marry her first husband after taking a divorce' - such practice is making a joke of sharia - it is haram.
This ruling however implies that if two people are so impossible with each other that even after three serious chances of trying to live in peace and tranquility all their efforts have failed - islamic sharia forbids them to re-marry a third time!
so what you said is partly correct, but am not sure if I understood you exactly as above. Khair inshAllah.
I dont remember the sharia rulings of that movie, it was long ago, i was only a kid - too immature to deduce anything concrete from a movie, so no comments on that.

Salam sister,
As per the explaination i heard by Zakir Bhai on peace tv.if a man gives divorce to his wife uttering the word Talaq she is divorced once and even if the term expires she can be back to same husband without any unintentional remarying, this time new mehar and new nikah,again same thing happened same procedure till the third chance,after the third chance the woman becomes haram on that man un less she unintentionally remarries and for some reason they seperate so she is legally allowed to marry any man including her first husband.
what you wrote was correct and could be one opinion by some alim and what i am saying is also correct near to the alim based on which Zakir bhai commented.
About that movie it was misuse of sharia law to make a good story.but anyways i just mentioned cause the halala word got so much publicity from that movie among asian urdu speaking people.

Oh, what my eyes have seen!
7… The number of completion.
The retelling of my story ends today with, well… today.
15 years later.
I have spent the last week recounting the events surrounding the day I was saved, and revealing thoughts, reactions, and the experience of being redeemed by my Savior, Jesus, at the age of 15.
Since that "fateful" week, I my life has been quite the journey (far more than I could have ever imagined)!
The journey has included (not in any particular order):
- Bible college
- marriage
- living in Pennsylvania and Detroit
- now living in Pensacola
- a daughter
- being on staff at three churches
- now planting a new church
- traveling to several foreign countries for ministry
- witnessing great miracles of healing
- experiencing great miracles of provision
- praying with many to receive Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord
- baptizing a bunch of teenagers
I have been so blessed by God.
I definitely can NOT imagine what my life would be like had He not saved me!
My spiritual journey began in Pensacola, FL while I was living in Attleboro, MA. Now, I live in Pensacola and am currently planting a church here.
It's wild.
God is so good.
I pray that this story as encouraged you.
It has been so great reminiscing…
… but now, onward and upward!
This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you when I laid my hands on you.
2 Timothy 1:6
Fanning the flame…

The 2012 wild turkey season begins April 1 on private lands in 34 counties that make up Game Zones 1-5 and on April 2 for all Wildlife Management Areas statewide where turkey hunting is allowed. The season opens March 15 on private lands only in Game Zone 6: Allendale, Bamberg, Barnwell, Beaufort, Berkeley, Calhoun, Charleston, Colleton, Dorchester, Hampton, Jasper and Orangeburg counties.
The season closes May 1 throughout the state.
Saturday, March 31 is Youth Turkey Hunt Day in areas where the season opens on April 1. On this day, youths 17 and under who are accompanied by a properly licensed adult (age 21 and older) may hunt turkeys. Only the youth can take or attempt to take turkeys. Tagging requirements remain in place for this special youth day.
This year, most hunters will receive their turkey tags by mail during the weeks before the season opens. Hunters can determine if they will get tags by mail by checking their hunting license. If "Turkey Tags" appears on their hunting license the tags should be mailed to them. If "Turkey Tags" does not appear on the license then they will need to order the tags. Turkey tags can be ordered online or an application for the tags can be downloaded (Pdf file). Hunters should remember to specifically request their turkey tags each year when they get their hunting license. For those hunters who do not get tags by mail, handwritten tags will be available in early March at S.C. Department of Natural Resource (DNR) offices and some local businesses that were formerly Big Game Check Stations. Turkey tags are free.
DNR is no longer publishing a standalone spring turkey hunting brochure because the rules and regulations pertaining to turkey hunting are now included in the annual Hunting and Fishing Rules and Regulations brochure that is published each summer. The brochure describes all areas open for turkey hunting, current regulations, and special restrictions for certain Wildlife Management Areas. Turkey hunting regulations apply to both public and private lands in most cases. No turkey hunting is permitted on any Wildlife Management Area not listed in the turkey regulations. The 2011-2012 Hunting and Fishing Rules and Regulations is available at most locations that sell hunting licenses. To obtain a copy by mail write: 2011-2012 Hunting and Fishing Rules and Regulations, SCDNR, PO Box 167, Columbia, SC 29202, call the DNR Columbia office at (803) 734-3886 or visit the DNR website to get information specific to turkey season.
The outlook for the 2012 spring season is better for most areas of the state than it has been the last few years, according to Charles Ruth, Deer and Turkey Project supervisor for DNR. Annually since the early 1980's, DNR conducts a Summer Turkey Survey to estimate reproduction and recruitment of turkeys in South Carolina. The survey involves agency wildlife biologists, technicians and conservation officers, as well as many volunteers from other natural resource agencies and the general public. Indicators from the survey were better in both 2010 and 2011 compared to previous years.
What does better reproduction mean for the spring turkey hunter? Ruth indicated, "Harvest trends have followed the trends in reproduction in recent years and we have seen an over 30 percent decline in turkey harvest since 2002. With better reproduction the last two years the number of turkeys during the spring of 2012 season should be higher. However, although reproduction in wild turkeys was better the last two years most areas of the state will have to overcome less than desirable reproduction that occurred for a number of years prior to 2010. The bottom line," Ruth said, "we need several successive years of better reproduction to get turkey numbers back up in the state."
For more information on wild turkeys including how to order turkey tags online, the 2012 Turkey Regulations, the 2011 Summer Turkey Brood Survey or the results from the 2011 spring gobbler season.

Quote: Specifically, I'm looking for a correlation between such hand formations and internal energy cultivation.
Quote:Thanks BP... I have Liang Shou-Yu's book and so far that is the only reference I have found that has this, albeit, with very little surface level detail. In Zhan Zhuang, one trains with holding contradictory forces in 6 directions, engaging the kua, the spine and the dantien, amongst other things. How does hand formations relate to this?
Quote:I'm not too concerned about the mudras themselves. I'm not so sure these things are "spontaneous" as harlan suggests. Hand mudras are specifically taught as part of the esoterica of kundalini yoga, shingon buddhism, as a means of cultivating spiritual energy for the specific purposes of enlightenment.When I see the founder of Aikido in various qigong "meditation postures", chanting the kotodama (mantras) etc. etc., I begin to wonder.... granted some of this comes directly from Shingon via Omoto-kyo (which is supposedly Shinto-based).But what I'm actually curious about is how this knowledge is common in yoga, buddhism (and buddhist qigong), as well as ninpo.

The concept of "forever" can be intimidating, especially when it comes to the voracious fans of "The Twilight Saga."
So consider that "Breaking Dawn — Part 2" saw its premiere in Los Angeles on Monday, drawing to a close a franchise of five films, the making of three superstars and a new kind of dialogue between filmmaker and fans.
So how to celebrate? Following the screening of the second half of Bill Condon's conclusion to the series, a party was staged at L.A. Live that encapsulated the journey of "Twilight" — and demanded leads Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner.
PHOTOS: 'Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2' premiere
"The first party was about 400 [people]" remembered Chad Hudson, the party-planning creative force behind all premiere fetes for the Stephenie Meyer-adapted books. Monday night's affair welcomed 3,500 guests.

To the Slaughter: The 8 (Or So) Most Memorable Sacrificial Lambs in MMA History
Last week at UFC on FOX 15, we watched in awe/horror as Chris Camozzi was mercilessly sacrificed the Brazilian alligator god they call Jacare in the name of "our entertainment." The fight was like watching a car wreck play out in slow motion — if one of the vehicles involved was a Smart Fortwo and the other a Caterpillar 79 – but hey, Some Fight is Better Than No Fight, Amiright? (copyright UFC 2016)
But Camozzi was not the first man to ever be brought into a no-win situation for one reason or another. Throughout MMA History, there have been fighters who served little other purpose than to make their opponents look all the more impressive. They're called sacrificial lambs, and with an ever-expanding schedule constantly being undermined by ever-increasing injuries, even the UFC has been forced to call on them from time to time. So with all that in mind, let's take a look back at some of the more notable fall men in MMA history.Read More DIGG THIS

The idea of a Google search as a person's permanent record continues to gather a lot of interest -- whether it's people fretting that they can't be found or government agents using it as a tool. A consistently reoccurring theme is how employers use Google as a de facto reference or background check on potential employees, though many of these worries seem a bit overblown. However, one federal employee who got fired for misusing government property alleged that a Google search by an official as part of the investigation into his thefts violated his "right to fundamental fairness". A three-judge panel disagreed, rejecting the claim that the search, which turned up information about two previous times the guy had been removed from a job, affected the decision to fire him. The case seems to hinge on the use of the search, and whether it undermines due process in determining whether or not to fire the guy. The judges said that the official's Google search didn't constitute ex-parte communication, since it wasn't a communication between parties. That seems to be the crucial part of the ruling here, because it essentially means it's acceptable for employers (or at least the federal government, as an employer) to check out workers' backgrounds online. The judges seem to be saying (quite reasonably) that the internet shouldn't get singled out for special treatment, and that it should be considered as any other research source. Should any communication on the internet constitute prejudicial ex-parte communication, then it should be dealt with as such. The bottom line: just because your boss found out about your past online, it certainly doesn't mean they can't fire you.

The bottom line: just because your boss found out about your past online, it certainly doesn't mean they can't fire you...
as long as confirm they are looking at the right person. I can understand people being fearful of employers googling (or whatever search engine) for their history. What I'm afraid of is the day that an employer uses info from a net search to fire someone and then the info turns out to be wrong. But let me guess I'm sure there is already some clause that protects said employer from a wrongful termination suit.
Makarot, 10 May 2007 @ 7:17am
Re: ...I've heard so much about this recently.
I did a search on myself and, try as I might, I couldn't find any information that was actually about me.
I suppose my name is pretty common,
but I also make it a point to keep my name off of myspace, livejournal, facebook, all the other crap that people seem to be getting in trouble for these days.
I mean, isn't that what net-handles are for?
Verum, 9 May 2007 @ 10:24pmNobody should be fired because of their past. If someone is doing a great job now, I don't care if they murdered someone in the past, that's what the idea of reform is all about.
"Well, you've been doing a great job here John, but we're going to have to let you go."
"What? Why? I have a family to feed!"
"We googled your name, and found out you listened to the Dead Kennedys, an anti-corporate punk band, when you were 17."
"How I wish I could turn back time..."
ejohnson, 14 May 2007 @ 3:49pm
Re:That is the dumbest thing I've ever read. Most people who committ crimes are repeat offenders. I certainly want to know if I'm working with someone with a history of violence.
kathy, 16 Dec 2007 @ 4:58pm
Re: Re:What if the person is convicted of a violent crime, when the real perpetrator is still out there??? I was a battered woman. I was convicted of assaulting him when I was actually defending myself. He is still out there.
And no, people, do not repeat their offenses.
You are a very judging and critical person.

...or...Do what I do. My "name" online is not my "legal" name. My legal name, in fact, is one of the most common names on the planet (first AND last, go me!) so by having a unique online name, I know how to find MYSELF any time I want, but people like employers and stalkers have no idea how to even begin given how commonplace my legal name is.
Anonymous Coward, 10 May 2007 @ 5:38am
Re: ...or...
...but people like employers and stalkers have no idea how to even begin given how commonplace my legal name is.
The problem is after a while they will probably stop caring if they even have the right person. All it's gonna take is one person to get fired over some incorrect info.
JustMatt, 10 May 2007 @ 7:12am
Re: VerumThat isn't what happened here and that isn't the issue at hand.
As an employer I need to know if an employee has a history of doing 'bad things' (misusing govt. property, using illegal drugs, spouse abuse, etc.) because that could well have an impact on his ability to do the job (being responsible for govt. contracts, flying a commercial jetliner, working in an elder care facility, etc.).
makarot, 10 May 2007 @ 7:20am
Re: Re: VerumThe important thing is to check your sources, I think.

Just like...Reminds me of the time the boss of my former company, who periodically Googled the company name to see if anyone was talking about it, stumbled upon the LiveJournal of a guy who mentioned his interview, but who used an RPG name for his journal name. While I explained that it's very common for people to use handles online, the HR person insisted "I wouldn't hire someone like that". I didn't, of course, tell them of my own online handles.
Charles Griswold, 13 May 2007 @ 4:30pm
Re: Just like...
While I explained that it's very common for people to use handles online, the HR person insisted "I wouldn't hire someone like that". I didn't, of course, tell them of my own online handles.
Exactly. My real name is not "Charles Griswold". It's "Grolnar, Lord of the Blackest Dark and Destroyer of Worlds".
Oops, my secret is out. So much for that cushy job at the DHS.
ronald, 29 May 2007 @ 1:57am
not all backgrounds are the samenot everyone thats read in backgrounds are realy that person. example my name when typed up in intelius.com commenly known as peoplefor will show you all your familys names when you type your own. but when you continue there are other names there that are not your family and other areas whe you live so your paying for information that belongs to both you and another entire family.
Lorraine, 15 Aug 2007 @ 5:20am
I think its a crockI personally think that employers should be able to perform a background check on a potential employee. However, I do not feel that anyone out there in cyberspace should be able to purchase the same information. What has happened to our rights to privacy. What if you don't want an EX to find you? Anyone can find anybody now a days. I think its dangerous and an invasion of privacy. Not everyone needs to know everyone else's business. I seriously wonder why people aren't getting more upset about this. Now are cell phone numbers are being published on Intelius.com. What next?
Daryl, 23 Sep 2008 @ 8:44amIt's going to get to the point where people are fired or not hired merely for posting political viewpoints that are considered out of the mainstream, and that is such hypocrisy considering how far this country has gone to protect the rights of minorities. Libertarians, communists, fascists, etc, will be fired just for rejecting the ruling order. Republicans will fire Democrats and vice versa.
Then its going to get to the point where people don't even care if someone actually said something, and people will start impersonating each other (already happened to me) as a weapon against the person.,
Daryl, 23 Sep 2008 @ 1:33pmThe worst thing is that the people at google have the slows. They make it nearly impossible to remove anything and require you to gain the support of the webmaster. What if the webmaster dislikes you and refuses, as any average Joe can make a website? Then google should step in and purge the info. Yahoo is willing to do this. Google is not.
