Jersey Shore
Snooki Shows Off Crazy Toned Arms and Tattoos in Ridiculous Gym Selfie! (PHOTO)
We're starting to forget what Snooki looked like when we first met her as a guidette meatball.
The former Jersey Shore star, who has made a major body transformation over the last few years, took to Instagram earlier in the week, flaunting her sexy toned bod. Along with a photo of herself flexing in the mirror at the gym (so guidette), she wrote, "Pumping iron this am." Attagirl!
In the pic, Snooks is also debuting her many tattoos, including a crown and a bow tat on her now-bulging bicep, some shooting stars on her back, and more.
While she's showed off her muscles and many gym routines before, it still surprises us that she's this toned. She's still teeny tiny (and getting even smaller every day, it seems like), so maybe that makes her muscles look bigger, but we think it's just all her hard work. You go, Snooks!
Check out Snooki putting the G in GTL in the photo below and then let us know what you think of her chiseled arms in the comments below.

Five fearless forecasts • The Washington Nationals will lose 100 games. But, like a tree that no one hears fall in a forest, maybe...
Five fearless forecasts
• The Washington Nationals will lose 100 games. But, like a tree that no one hears fall in a forest, maybe all those losses won't really happen.
• In the feel-good moment of the summer, former Bellarmine Prep star Jon Lester, now cancer-free, will return to the Red Sox.
- Purple Heart plant bed vandalized days before Memorial Day
- Refusal in Bernie Sandersland to accept reality is really unreal
- Central District's shrinking black community wonders what's next
- Seattle's vanishing black community
- Boeing tankers will be delivered to Air Force late — and incomplete
Most Read Stories
• In the feel-queasy moment of the summer, Barry Bonds will overtake Hank Aaron and become baseball's home-run king.
• The St. Louis Cardinals will not repeat as World Series champions.
• The Philadelphia Phillies will be this year's Detroit Tigers, and advance to the World Series. (Or they won't, and manager Charlie Manuel will get fired).
Best free-agent signings
• OF Shannon Stewart, Oakland, one year, $1 million: This really looked smart after Mark Kotsay was injured and the A's needed to move Stewart into the lineup.
• 3B Wes Helms, Philadelphia, two years, $5.45 million: That's a pretty good deal for a guy who could hit 25-30 homers in full-time duty.
• 2B Marcus Giles, San Diego, one year, $3.75 million: Padres found a dependable second baseman and leadoff hitter at a bargain rate.
• RP Eric Gagne, Texas, one year, $6 million: OK, this one's a little risky, but if Gagne comes off the disabled list in good health, he'll be worth it.
• REO Speedwagon, to sing the national anthem before the Kansas City Royals' opener.
Worst free-agent signings
• OF Gary Matthews Jr., Angels, five years, $50 million: That's just too much money for a 32-year-old who has had one good season.
• SP Gil Meche, Kansas City, five years, $55 million: Seriously, what were the Royals thinking? Have they ever watched him pitch?
• OF Juan Pierre, Dodgers, five years, $44 million: Jeez, how much is Ichiro going to get?
• SP Barry Zito, San Francisco, seven years, $126 million: Seven years for a pitcher? Mariners are lucky they didn't win this bidding war.
• SP Adam Eaton, Philadelphia, three years, $24.5 million: Snohomish native has never won more than 11 games, but his bloated contract established the market this winter.
Welcome back
• Ken Griffey Jr. — if he's healthy — will play in Seattle for the first time since he was traded when the Reds play the Mariners June 22-24.
• Lou Piniella returns after a year off to manage the Chicago Cubs. He should do better than he did in three years with Tampa Bay.
• Josh Hamilton, the first overall pick of the 1999 draft, has finally made it to the major leagues. Hamilton didn't play during the 2003-05 seasons because of drug and alcohol addictions. The Devil Rays finally gave up on him, but he made Cincinnati's roster.
• Carl Pavano hasn't pitched since June 2005 because of ribs, shoulder, back, buttocks and elbow injuries, but he's in the Yankees' rotation this year. In fact, with the Yankees' pitching being what it is, he'll start the opener.
• After three years in last place, it looks like the Mariners might be ready to rejoin the American League West party. Not saying they'll win it, but maybe they can contend this year until later than, like, June.
AL AWARDS: Five easy picks
MVP: Alex Rodriguez, 3B, Yankees.
Cy Young: Johan Santana, Minnesota.
Rookie: Daisuke Matsuzaka, SP, Boston.
Comeback player: Sammy Sosa, DH, Texas.
Manager: Terry Francona, Boston.
Five longshot picks
MVP: J.D. Drew, OF, Boston. Hey, maybe this will be the year he stays healthy.
Cy Young: Scott Kazmir, Tampa Bay. If he pitched anywhere else, you'd know all about him.
Rookie: Alex Gordon, 3B, Kansas City. OK, not exactly a longshot, but not nearly the hype of Matsuzaka.
Comeback player: Sidney Ponson, SP, Minnesota. Would become first player to be knighted, and win comeback player of the year. We think.
Manager: Mike Hargrove, Mariners. We said "longshot," didn't we?
NL AWARDS: Five easy picks
MVP: Albert Pujols, 1B, St. Louis.
Cy Young: Roy Oswalt, Houston.
Rookie: Chris Young, OF, Arizona.
Comeback player: Derrek Lee, Cubs.
Manager: Charlie Manuel, Philadelphia.
Five longshot picks
MVP: Jose Reyes, SS, Mets. Still just 23, he finished seventh in MVP vote last year.
Cy Young: Cole Hamels, Philadelphia. Left-hander has nasty, nasty stuff.
Rookie: Kevin Kouzmanoff, 3B, San Diego. Maybe that would make fans forgive Padres for trading Josh Barfield to Indians for Kouzmanoff.
Comeback player: Cristian Guzman, SS, Washington. Oh wait, he wasn't very good even when he was healthy.
Manager: Fredi Gonzalez, Florida. Phillies and Mets are probably better, but Marlins have a chance.
Best bets to be first manager fired:
• Mike Hargrove, Mariners.
• Buddy Bell, Kansas City.
• John Gibbons, Toronto.
• Charlie Manuel, Philadelphia.
• Clint Hurdle, Colorado.
Hey, didn't you used to be …
• Carl Everett.
• John Halama.
• David Bell.
• Mike Hampton.
• Clint Nageotte, Ryan Anderson, Rett Johnson, Ken Cloude, Jeff Heaverlo, Denny Stark, Jim Converse, Allan Simpson, Sam Hays, Mac Suzuki, Bobby Madritsch, Scott Atchison, Brian Sweeney …
Follow the former Mariners
• Wilson Valdez, the Mariners' opening day shortstop in 2005, is with the Dodgers, and is in line to start if Rafael Furcal opens the season on the disabled list.
• Bobby Livingston, the Mariners' fourth-round draft pick in 2001, had a great spring and nearly made the Reds' rotation, but will start in the minors.
• Former Mariners minor-leaguer Terrmel Sledge is the San Diego Padres' left fielder.
• Brett Tomko, who pitched for the Mariners in 2000-01, has earned the fifth spot in the Dodgers' rotation.
• Aaron Sele, who also pitched for the Mariners in 2000-01 (then again in 2005), is pitching in relief for the Mets.
Story lines we're tired of
• Anything having to do with Barry Bonds.
• Who will sign Roger Clemens?
• Daisuke Matsuzaka's gyroball.
• Kerry Wood, Mark Prior battling injuries.
• Alex Rodriguez vs. Derek Jeter.
2007 milestones,
Barry Bonds division
• As you may have heard, Bonds has 734 home runs, which means he needs 21 to catch Hank Aaron.
• Bonds also has 2,841 hits, needing 159 to make it to 3,000. But because he doesn't play every day, and pitchers walk him a lot, Bonds hasn't had 159 hits in a season since 1998.
• Bonds has 1,930 RBI, so a decent season would get him to 2,000, and past Lou Gehrig into fourth place all-time.
• Bonds is already baseball's all-time walks leader, with 2,426.
• He's also baseball's all-time leader in "Guy Bud Selig Really Hopes Doesn't Break Hank Aaron's Home-Run Record."
Other 2007 milestones
• Houston second baseman Craig Biggio has 2,930 hits, so he should become the 27th player to reach 3,000 hits.
• Mets left-hander Tom Glavine has 290 wins, and should join the 22 other pitchers with at least 300. Randy Johnson, who rejoined the Arizona Diamondbacks, has 280, but the Big Unit hasn't won 20 since 2002, so it seems unlikely he'll get to 300 this year.
• Speaking of former Mariners … Jamie Moyer is ninth all-time with 414 home runs allowed, and would need to surrender 34 this year with the Phillies to tie Frank Tanana for fifth place.
• Sammy Sosa is back this year, with the Rangers, and needs 12 home runs to reach 600. Ken Griffey Jr. has 563, so he'll need to stay healthy all season to have a shot at reaching 600.
• Four players have a legitimate chance to reach 500 career home runs this season — Frank Thomas (487), Jim Thome (472), Manny Ramirez (470) and Alex Rodriguez (464).

I have a couple pair of bike shorts, but neither of which has turned out to be a good solution. One is a pair of Trek club shorts, which fit good except for muffin top syndrome. My customary yellow T-shirt is so baggy now that it snags on everything (it was pretty oversized even when I was 380#). But I'm still way too big to even think about wearing a jersey, and I prefer loose clothing anyway. Wearing regular shorts over the bike shorts dont work well because of the slippery lycra - they just slide down too far.
I also have a pair of Bellwether baggies, but although they're nice shorts they're not baggy in the least. Just standing around they fit and look OK but the outer shell is tight enough to make getting on/off a bike problematic. And since they don't stretch flexibility is limited.
So......I need to either find a good pair of bib shorts that I can either wear a regular T-shirt over and even better yet some kind of shorts that fit loosely but not too loose and allow for a full range of motion. I probably could do without just as long as no one looked too closely
Are there any jerseys out there that are *ahem* "loose cut?" so to speak?
Any other options?
btw I'm 5-10 and about 305, I can wear a 42" pair of jeans under the spare tire or a 54" pair of dress slacks on the spare tire, if that's of any help. Thanks!

Login to Review This Car
1995 Ford Windstar (5 Reviews)
We've owned our 95 Windstar LX for the last 2 yrs and I love it. We've also replaced a lot of parts on it, but I consider them all investments (especially since we do not have a car note). So far, both catalytic converters, alternator, battery, serpentine belt, spark plugs, wires, 3 o2 sensors, a hose or two.... BUT we drove it to Ct from Fla twice. Now I think we're having an issue with the exhaust manifold seal, but like I said before, all investments. The car is almost 20yrs old and has close to 190,000miles. Plus, all the repairs mentioned above were NOT done together, just over time. Pushing on 3yrs with us and looking forward to another 10+. My first exp with a 03 Windstar was much worse. We financed it with almost 365.00 a month payments and in less than a yr we had to replace the transmission. You can never really tell, especially when you're not the first owner and don't do regular maintenance on it. It doesn't matter what car you own. You don't take care of it, it won't work well for long. For us, we just love not having payments and high full coverage ins. All the money we've spent is still way less than almost 3yrs of financing for a car you still have to maintain. :)
My windstar is breaking 450,000 miles i've used it for work and play, when i had problem with it, it was my neglect for not taking care of the problem sooner. I just kept up with the maintances tune ups, oil changes. i've changed the battery and alternater and starter but that was when it was about 200,000 -250,000 miles. Its starting to lose power but that expected with this much wear and tear. Also it depends on the machanic who works on it
I love this mini van, i turned it into a work van.A/c super cold.Good on fuel,very spacious,fits all my tools,and it tows very good.197,000 miles and running real strong, I wouldnt sell mine.it really suprised me!!
this car work ok
This is without a doubt one of the worst cars I've ever owned. The engine blew on me at about 79000 miles. The problem was the head gaskets.. I found out that Ford had actually recalled the motor because ALL the head gaskets were bad.. but they failed to notify customers of the recall. There are a couple dozen other recalls on the same model as well... Oh.. After I had the motor replaced the van lasted almost 10000 miles more before the transmission failed. I made the mistake of having that fixed too, and got about another 5000 miles before the ignition switch failed.. I literally had to open the hood and pull a fuse to shut off the car. Then the lever used to pop the hood failed.. Every other owner of a Windstar from 92 - 99 that I've ever talked to has told me the same thing... This is a TERRIBLE car. There is only one thing this car is good for - being used as an example of why the American auto industry is failing.

Dog Versus Slide (Video)Amy Fleck
There has recently been some evidence that dogs are even smarter than we thought. Dogs can learn to infer things from our words, much the same way infants learn language. Um yeah, someone didn't tell this dog. He doesn't seem to be from the geniuses.
At one point, while the dog is in between tries getting up the slide, he looks over to the camera as if to say "Really? You're just gonna stand there filming me? You can't come help?"
Click below to get your chuckle for the evening.

Ben Wheatley has taken viewers down dark paths with "Kill List," on blackly comic road trips with "Sightseers" and into a crime family trying to keep it together with "Down Terrace," but perhaps nothing can prepare us for "A Field In England." And these this new teaser trailer and TV spot reveal that if anything, it's going to be a experience probably unlike many other things you'll see this summer.
Starring Michael Smiley, Julian Barratt and Reece Shearsmith, the story follows a group of deserters during the English Civil War -- okay cool, that makes sense -- who are captured by an alchemist, who wants them to help him search for hidden treasure in a mushroom field. Um, what? Presumably what follows, and certainly what these previews suggest, is something that blurs reality and fiction into a head spinning whirl. So yeah, we're stoked.
The film drops in England next week on July 5th simultaneous on TV, in theaters, on VOD and home video. Drafthouse Films will release the movie in the U.S. later this year. Watch below.

Letters: North County, May 23, 2013
AP phone scam no isolated incident
The Justice Department's secret review of Associated Press phone records ("Government secretly obtained journalists' phone records," May 14) is a serious abuse of power, but it is definitely not an isolated incident.
Many individuals in the government operate outside the law to violate the First Amendment rights of American citizens. As a retired federal worker I personally witnessed and documented incidents in which conversations were illegally recorded, edited and used against individuals. Investigative reports were falsified and witnesses were intimidated.
The Associated Press is a major corporation that has the ability to fight back. Individuals seldom have the power or financial resources to stand up to the massive criminal element in the government.
The vermin inside the government are experts at abusing and manipulating the system to protect themselves and their cohorts. First Amendment violations will continue because in many cases the perpetrators are the same ones who are assigned to investigate and enforce the regulations.
We must continuously protect our all of our constitutional rights because the government will take them from us if we let down our guard.
Thomas G. Calabrese
Twerking crackdown misses the point
In response to "Trustees asked to reconsider" (North County Local, May 16): The focus needs to shift from twerking to using school property without permission. Punishment should be based upon that, not the dance move. Where were the teachers or any responsible adults when these young people were producing a video during school hours?
I suspect that if the students at Scripps Ranch High School had created an award-winning video they would have been revered, even though they used school equipment without permission during school hours.
Karen Emanuelson
No such thing as 'safe' abortions
Kermit Gosnell was convicted of murder for killing three newborns by "snipping" their spinal cords ("Abortion doctor guilty of murder in babies' deaths," May 14).
Yet, moments earlier it would have been just fine to do the same thing while those same babies were still in utero. What magic happened in the short journey down the birth canal that transformed a disposable "blob of tissue" into a valuable human being?
Modern ultrasound makes it obvious that the thing growing inside mom is a human baby. That is true throughout all stages of development. A child does not acquire worth because of body parts or what he can do. She does not deserve protection only because someone wants her. Whether a child's age is 2 years after birth or six months prior to birth, she is valuable simply by virtue of being human.
News anchors warn us that descriptions of what Gosnell did to newborns are grisly and repulsive.
But no one seems bothered that thousands of babies just a few months younger than these newborn victims are routinely dismembered and suctioned in "safe" abortions.

No fans of the IRS
In response to "Partisan and incompetent IRS must go" (Editorial, May 20): By badgering members of the Tea Parties and charitable organizations that applied for tax exemption status, the IRS has unwittingly opened a huge can of worms.
Why in the world was it a requirement of the IRS to question these people for anything other than their organization's finances? Why did they need to know what they were praying about, or who they were writing to regarding their concerns, or whose campaigns they were supporting?
What you have done is energize all these citizens into reconfirming their belief that what they are trying to do is absolutely necessary, i.e., no more taxes or Obamacare or disregard of the Constitution.

BOSTON With potential action required to allocate federal funding, questions are being raised about whether the Massachusetts Legislature could come back in session and revive debate on the stalled casino gambling bill.
Lawmakers could come back to Beacon Hill to debate how the state should use approximately $655 million in federal funding — allocated to states to offset the cost of Medicaid and education — once it gets fully approved by the U.S. Congress. The Senate approved the measure Thursday, and the House is is expected to vote next week.
If state lawmakers decide to come back into session to deal with the federal funds, they could also bring up the gambling bill again.
But Republican legislative leaders say that's not likely.
"It's quiet and it's August and people want to speculate," said House Minority Leader Rep. Brad Jones. "It's one of the things we do best, sort of the water cooler talk and hypothesize."
Jones says it's "wildly" premature to speculate before the federal funding is approved.
"That speculation will be much more in line once this is signed into law and we see the exact amounts and all the details and requirements that the federal government has put on these two different pots of money, and then what the governor files," he said.
Another Republican leader, Sen. Richard Tisei says even if the federal funding is approved, the Legislature should wait to look at it when the next legislative session begins in January.
"Putting $650 million before the Legislature right now, right before an election, will pretty much ensure that bad decisions are made as far as spending it," Tisei said. He is also running for lieutenant governor.
A spokesman for House Speaker Robert DeLeo said the speaker is waiting action from Congress. Senate President Therese Murray has not returned calls for comment.

|-He's able to bring back memories from within a person's mind through direct eye contact. The victim basically relives the scene again as if they were really at that given point of time.|
★ [ Ability Limitation ]
✦As of now, he can only bring back horrible memories.
✦Only one memory is chosen per time.
✦The longer the said memory is, the more exhausted/stressed he becomes. For example, after 10 minutes, he may experience a nosebleed.
✦He relives those same memories along with the victim, taking a toll on his well-being as well. Henry may get confused at times, trying to sort out his own memories from the ones he's seen.
✦He has little control over his power; Because of this, he wears sunglasses often to prevent himself from hurting others just by meeting their eyes.
★ [ Reason for Joining ]
✧To finally be of use to someone, considering how his power drove most people away from him.
✧To earn enough money to support himself and his studies.
★ [ Occupation ]
✦Unemployed, but currently taking independent studies on Psychology.---
★ [ ✧Likes✧ | = | ✦Dislikes✦ ]

✦Anyone else who tries to take off his glasses
✦High prices
✦Getting too close to people
✦Loud people
✦Bright places
★ [ Personality ]
|He may try to keep himself indifferent and cold towards others, but he really just doesn't want to form any relationships in fear that he may accidentally hurt them. It's the reason why he prefers to be called by his alias rather than his true name. Once he does actually get close to another person, they'll find that he's more kindhearted than he is cold.|
✧Good Humored
|Although he may not show it most of the time, he'd love a good laugh and would probably open up faster to friendly companions who do so too.|
✧Quiet = |For the most part.|
|If put into a room with others, he generally minds his own business and keeps to himself, unless, of course, someone talks to him first.|✧Forgetful|Henry tends to forget various things, seeing as how he already has too many memories to deal with. Unless he's actually interacted with a person/been involved in an event, it's highly unlikely that he'll be able to remember them/it.✧Anxious
|He may sometimes get paranoid about people touching his glasses or trying to remove them. He's not very comfortable with the thought of showing his eyes outside of work, so it's best not to ask about his constant use of sunglasses.|
|Havoc tends to be more bitter towards other and more talkative as well, usually making sarcastic offhand comments.|
✦A Bit of a Liar
|He's a tricky one to deal with, trying to keep others on their toes as a form of amusement. That being said, he also doesn't trust very easily and will be extremely annoyed if you so much as refer to himself as Henry.|
|Unlike his original personality, Havoc actually enjoys the misery he gets from obtaining the memories, being more accepting of them than he would normally be.|
Born as the illegitimate child of an Englishman and his Italian mistress, Henry's first memories were that of an orphanage. His mother was said to have been too young to take care of him and left him at a house for abandoned children in England.
Nevertheless, his childhood was a fairly happy one.
The caregivers there were extremely loving, always looking out for each and every child within the house. As for the children, they had trouble getting along here and there, but overall, they considered each other as family. Well, a temporary family at least. Most of the children where ecstatic about the idea of having parents, often talking about what they'd do with their new families and getting ready for their interviews with numerous potential parents. Henry was one of these kids. Caring and supportive, he'd give many of his "siblings" a hug before they left, wishing them luck and eagerly awaiting his turn.
The time came to pass when he'd chance. A fairly young couple was supposed to come to the orphanage for a visit. They've lost their only child a while back and, after years of grieving over his death, decided to move on and start anew. While it was thrilling that he'd finally be able to have a family, Henry felt sad about actually leaving the orphanage behind. He didn't want to just leave there without doing something nice for his temporary family. And so, he ended up spending the day before his appointment helping out the caregivers with grocery shopping. Or at least, half of it.
During the time that one of the caretakers took to load the said groceries into the car, the young child witnessed a truck accident on the nearby road. A much smaller van was crushed in the event, effectively crushing the family of four inside it, all in a matter of minutes. And right before his eyes. Henry felt the moment of impact, how much the glass hurt against their skin, the truck pushing and pushing through them and every single crack of their bodies as they were torn apart by the tragic event. It didn't matter if he didn't know the family or that he was safely out of the truck's boundaries. He felt every bone-crushing detail of the crash as if he were in it. A surge immense pain rushed through his body, filling each and every fiber with terror, all of them telling him to scream.
Next thing he knew, he was back at the house, having just woken up in cold sweat. Apparently, he passed out shortly after the accident occurred and though the thought of the event seemed to have left him shaken, he still needed to get ready. After all, it was the day of the interview. At first, things went fairly well. The couple and him conversed, briefly introducing themselves to him. Then, he started remembering the deceased family, silently pondering if that same instance might happen to his new family.
He must've been accidentally ignoring the couple's comment, seeing as how the woman in front of him was asking if he was alright. Henry looked up at her worriedly, unsure of what to say. It was then that he saw it. The stillborn baby in his arms. The excruciating pain he felt in his chest. The countless tears that must've fallen off of his face. The first glimpses of a memory that plagued her heart. The woman screamed, sobbing heavily, the sound pulling him back into reality. The man quickly put his arms around her, trying to comfort his spouse, all whilst looking suspiciously over the boy. He and his wife left immediately, going on and on about how "that child" is cursed. Ever since then, he was never really able to get adopted. It was always the same story. He'd look into the parents' eyes and see a devastating part of their lives, only to get rejected again and again. Then, it was some of the caregivers. After that, the a few of the children. Eventually, people began distancing themselves away from him, labeling him as dangerous. Needless to say, there were those that really did still care for him and knew that he was, all in all, a good kid. One of them was an elderly caretaker by the name of Clara.
She was a rather kind and motherly person; most of the kids considered her as the grandmother they never had. While she helped in taking care of many of the children, she looked after Henry the most, almost always there to scold him if he did something wrong, talk to him when he needed a friend and cheer him up when he was down. She even took on the initiative to teach Henry herself. (The caregivers agreed that sending him to an actual school may be both risky for him and his peers.) When one of the caregivers called in for doctors from a mental asylum to come for him, she and a handful of trusted friends ensured that both her and the boy could safely run away from the orphanage.
The two made their way out of England and into France, settling over at Strasbourg. She'd managed to rent a small apartment for both of them, that of which they would peacefully live in for a couple of years. Once Henry reached the appropriate age, he tried looking for various jobs that would give him money to help support his small family. He was hired for many of them, but each one seemed to end with the same old incident. His caretaker bought a pair of sunglasses for him to wear after those events, but they still needed to move. Rumors about the black-haired teen with lightly colored eyes started to spread like fire and they feared that the asylum doctors would try searching for him there.
Year after year, month after month, they always moved to a different house until eventually, they were broke. The pair ended up homeless, stuck in the streets of Padua, Italy. What's more was that Clara had grown fatally ill as a result old age. Putting the young man's needs before hers, she gave Henry what little belongings she previously had with her kept and persuaded him to go forth and live on his own. Find a stable job. Support himself. She knew she didn't have much time left to stay with him. He knew it as well. With a heavy heart, he left her and moved east towards Venice.
He stayed homeless for another month or so until he overheard soft rumors of a nearby mafia at a local bar, one that contained members with strange abilities like his own. Taking this information into account, he sought to join it, hoping to be able to finally be able to have a useful purpose for his abilities and to be able to live on his own. Who knows? Maybe he'll even learn how to control his powers a bit better.
✦"It's a tad bit too bright here, love."
✦"HAH HAH, nojk give me back my glasses."
Apoca: A very good friend of his. Being his first friend within the group, he thinks rather fondly of her and treats her like a little sister. He's also protective of her as a result.
★ [ Miscellaneous ]
✧May refer to others as "love."
✧Tends to loosen up more at home. It's one of the only times he'd take off his glasses besides when he's working.
✧Always carries his glasses case around with him.
✧Hates contacts with a passion;
Tried them on once and it hurt like crazy.
✧Makes his own food most of the time with the help of online recipes.
✧Dyed his hair to help keep himself from being recognizable by those doctors.
✧Goes on and one about saving money, but ends up spending most of it on books for research, sunglasses and new technology.✧Usually introduces himself by his alias, though he'll reveal his first name if: 1) he trusts you. 2) the other individual reveals another one of their names as well.
✦Clara, the caretaker who practically raised him was his grandmother |from his father's side.|
✧She was hesitant about even accepting him into the orphanage from his mother at first, but eventually warmed up to her grandson.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Heather Dubrow's Daughter Launching Music Career?
Is Real Housewives of Orange County star Heather Dubrow's adorable daughter following in her mom's footsteps and getting into showbiz? It sure seems that way!
Heather has taken to Instagram to post a photo of her daughter Maximillia at a recording studio. "Max in the recording studio at 'Melody Makers,'" Heather captions the pic. "Such a great program! #dreamingbig"
This photo is seriously too cute! It's great that Max is getting to pursue her musical interests, and the recording studio seems like a top-notch place. Plus, those headphones on her head are just downright adorable.
Clearly, musical genes run in the family. After all, Heather is a performer and sang at Tamra Barney and Eddie Judge's wedding earlier this summer.
Max is nine years old and recently started the fourth grade. She has a twin brother, Nicky, and she also has two younger sisters, Katarina and Collette.
Max is hardly the first child of a Real Housewives star to pursue music. Lisa Vanderpump's son — who is also named Max! — has studied the drums. Perhaps there's just something about being a reality-star kid named Max that makes you want to rock out.
Best of luck, Max Dubrow! We look forward to buying your album one of these days!

Justin Timberlake Defends Miley Cyrus VMA Performance: What Did You Expect?
Justin Timberlake used to date Britney Spears, back in the bright and shiny days of our youth, when all the prettiest people dated one another. Remember the denim coordination? The sexy snake dance? The glittery thong? Mistah JT does, and it's allowed him to take a pretty chill view of Miley Cyrus's gyrating, twerking, Internet-exploding Video Music Awards performance from Sunday's MTV show.
"Listen, man, you know, it's the VMAs. What did you guys expect?," Justin told NYC's Fresh 102.7 FM on August 27. "I like Miley. I like her a lot. I think, you know, she's young. She's letting everyone know that she's growing up. I just think it's the VMAs. It's not like she did it at the GRAMMYs. Let her do her thing. You know?"
You hear that, haters?! Justin Timberlake says it's fine, so it is. Justin says that his favorite part of the performance wasn't the bears or the twerks or the weird nude PVC underwear — it was Will Smith's family's reactions to the whole thing. Which, yeah, that was ours too.
And he compares it to some of his main girls' past performances, "Madonna: Wedding suit, humping the stage. Britney: Strip tease… This is not an uncommon thing." Notice he didn't mention the fashions of the VMAs in the Brit-Brit context… Though, we do wish he'd talked a little more about his ex's famous performance.
All that really matters? Justin says that Miley is fine, he likes her, and the performance was appropriate for the occasion. There you have it. Judge Justin dismisses the Miley case, but will you keep hating on her for her VMA performance? Weigh in below.

Jan. 9, 2012
Editor's Note: The following first appeared in the University of Iowa's Hawk Talk Daily, an e-newsletter that offers a daily look at the Iowa Hawkeyes, delivered free each morning to thousands of fans of the Hawkeyes worldwide.
IOWA CITY, Iowa -- One unbeaten streak remained Saturday when No. 1 Iowa and No. 2 Oklahoma State met on Mediacom Mat inside a packed and loud Carver-Hawkeye Arena: Hawkeye 133-pound wrestler Tony Ramos extended his record at home to 12-0.
And it stole the roar from the Cowboys' 17-16 (criteria) team decision, ending Iowa's 84-match unbeaten streak.
Ramos upset previously No. 1 and defending national champion Jordan Oliver, 4-3, in overtime. Oliver entered the night with a record of 10-0 with 10 falls. The Cowboy junior had won 39 consecutive bouts and only two of his opponents this season made it past the opening three minutes.
"Give Ramos a lot of credit," UI head coach Tom Brands said. "It's persistence, and that's what Ramos is about. He was coming off a loss (6-4 in overtime to Devin Carter of Virginia Tech in the finals of the Midlands Championships on Dec. 30), so he righted a wrong, so to speak."
There was no scoring during a first period that saw Ramos fight out of a shot with 1:36 left. Oliver had the right leg of Ramos, but Ramos got his foot to the mat and broke free when Oliver grabbed for Ramos's head in a cradle attempt. As the match wore on, Ramos became more comfortable and pressed the action, shooting twice in a 35-second span.
"I wrestled smart, but I wasn't getting my offense. I got in on the legs -- if the first time you don't finish, you tell yourself, the second time you're going to finish, the third time you're going to finish, the fourth time you're going to finish. You have to keep attacking, even if you're not going to score the first couple times."

UI 133-pound wrestler
A key in the match was a caution on Oliver to begin the third. Then the Cowboy was warned for stalling, 28 seconds before Ramos escaped to tie the score. With 22 seconds remaining, Ramos finished the only takedown of the match to go ahead, 3-1. Another caution on Oliver followed two seconds later, and he escaped with six seconds left to make it 3-2 in favor of Ramos. But Oliver compiled 62 seconds of riding time to force overtime. Ramos chose down, and a third caution on Oliver resulted in a point for the Hawkeye, giving him a 4-3 edge. Oliver rode out Ramos, and Ramos rode out Oliver, and bedlam ensued as a full house of 15,400 voiced their delight.
"It was loud. I guess that's what everyone was saying," Ramos said. "I try to block it all out. I had to go out there and wrestle and go and do what I do best."
"This place knows wrestling," Brands said. "The entertainment factor was OK, but you don't get your money's worth unless you come out with a W."
In this case, a colossal individual W by Ramos had to suffice.
The streak for Ramos began with a 14-5 major decision over Brandon Jones of Iowa State on Dec. 3, 2010. He is 5-0 at home this season, with a big, Big Ten win -- 13-5 major decision over returning All-American B.J. Futrell of Illinois -- topped only by Saturday's signature victory against Oliver.
"I wrestled smart, but I wasn't getting my offense," Ramos said. "I got in on the legs -- if the first time you don't finish, you tell yourself, the second time you're going to finish, the third time you're going to finish, the fourth time you're going to finish. You have to keep attacking, even if you're not going to score the first couple times."
Ramos showed he was more prepared to go nine-minutes as Oliver was noticeably winded during the latter stages. After the dual, Ramos was looking for ways to widen the gap if he meets Oliver again -- possibly at the NCAA Championships in St. Louis.
"I gave him too much respect in the first period," Ramos said. "Second period I got in on a leg and didn't finish. Third period I got back in on it; I have to get out quicker on bottom. I have to finish takedowns."
Ramos had enough in his arsenal and enough gas in the tank Saturday to come out on top. But there is never much time to celebrate in the Big Ten. The league boasts some of the nation's top 133-pounders in Ramos, Futrell, Ohio State freshman Logan Stieber, Purdue sophomore Cashe Quiroga, Minnesota sophomore David Thorn, Michigan senior Zac Stevens, and Nebraska junior Ridge Kiley.
Ramos will face Kiley on Friday, Jan. 13, in Lincoln, Neb., beginning at 7 p.m. Kiley is a native of Eagle Grove, Iowa.

« American Idol: Paula Abdul's Goodbye (Video) | Home | American Idol: William Hung & Larry Platt (Video) »
American Idol: What Was Your Favorite Part Of The Finale?
May 27, 2010 06:40 AM by Nancy Floyd
It's hard to believe another season of American Idol is over, but the season nine showdown between Lee Dewyze and Crystal Bowersox was an exciting one. The finale featured fantastic performances from previous Idol winners, this season's top 10, and practically every other celebrity under the sun (Christina Aguilera! Alice Cooper! Dane Cook! Bret Michaels! Hall & Oates!), plus a moving and hilarious tribute to judge Simon Cowell. What were your favorite parts of the star-studded season finale?
Regardless of who is crowned champion, American Idol never disappoints when it comes to extravagant productions during their season finales. Season nine was definitely no different! The star-studded event attracted great singers, new and old, that ranged from rock legend Alice Cooper to former American Idol champs, Carrie Underwood and Kris Allen, to Alanis Morrisette and Hall & Oates. Where else can you expect to see the BeeGees on the same stage with Bret Michaels? Or Janet Jackson and William Hung? Only American Idol!
The season finale kicked off with a rocking performance of School's Out from the Top 10 joined by Alice Cooper. Later, Siobhan Magnus and Aaron Kelly were joined by the BeeGees to perform How Deep Is Your Love.  Kris Allen performed his new single, The Truth, and Michael Lynche was joined by Michael McDonald to sing Takin' It To the Streets. Comedian Dane Cook stopped by American Idol to sing a funny little ditty mocking Simon Cowell's previous insults on the show. The ladies from this season's Top 10 were joined by Christina  Aguilera for a performance of Fighter, before Aguilera sang a newer single on her own, and Hall & Oates accompanied the men from the Top 10 for a medley.
There were also performances from Crystal Bowersox and Alanis Morrisette, Carrie Underwood, Casey James and Bret Michaels, Lee Dewyze and Chicago, and General Larry Platt (Pants on the Ground) and William Hung (She Bangs). American Idol winners from seasons past, as well as some of the top finalists from seasons one through 8, also graced the stage during the finale. Janet Jackson joined the Top 10, as did Joe Cocker. And of course, Paula Abdul was on hand to pay tribute to Simon Cowell's long reign as the grumpy (but accurate) judge.
With so many amazing performances, we want to know what your favorites are! Which did you love? Which did you hate? Who do you wish would've showed up at the finale? Who do you wish would've stayed home? We want to hear your thoughts at our American Idol message boards! And be sure to check out SirLinksALot: American Idol for more Idol news.

I used the same color combo as the card in my post here.
The base is Berry Sorbet. I layered on the Summer Sun cardstock. I scalloped the edge of the Cool Caribbean layer using a corner rounder. {I got in a hurry!} I sponged this layer with Tempting turquoise ink.
Once the Cool Caribbean panel was adhered, I tied the Offray black double stitched ribbon around the panel into a knot on the front.
The images are from PTI Simple Little Things. I stamped them with Berry Sorbet, Tempting Turquoise, and Summer Sun inks, then punched them out with a circle punch. Lastly, they were matted onto a slightly larger Basic Black circle and adhered.
The sentiment is from PTI Women of Life and it is stamped directly on the panel with Adirondack ink.
The t-ball game was great. Cody scored every time he was at bat and he got some of the other players out. Of course, they don't keep score and everyone bats even when there have already been three outs. All for fun and to learn a bit about the game. All the kids tried really hard and all looked so cute on the field.
Tonight we are going to watch my niece play her game. She is in the same league with Cody and our last game is against her team...should be interesting.

Saphir™ supports 78 different languages such as Spanish, English, Portuguese, German and French in Other, Latin, and Cyrillic scripts. (Please note that not all languages are available for all formats.)
Saphir also known as Sapphire and the Festliche Ziffern ( Festive Numerals ) were designed by Hermann Zapf in 1950 for D. Stempel AG in Frankfurt. It is richly ornamented and is reminescent of the types designed by Fournier in the eighteenth century. The decoration is based on leaf forms. The font Saphir includes the "Festliche Ziffern".


text: Under pressure: The science of stress Stress 10 August 10 by Jonah Lehrer After his trip in 1978, Sapolsky began spending every summer in Kenya. In the early 80s, he happened upon a rare event: the highest-ranking female and a low-ranking one gave birth to daughters just days apart, and these newcomers allowed him to compare the effects of status on development. The first thing he noticed was that the high-ranking daughter hit every developmental landmark faster. She walked first, ate solid food earlier and interacted more with other baboons. The lesson, Sapolsky says, is that "status comes with privileges", which are present from birth.Sapolsky describes a poignant scene that took place when the newborns encountered each other for the first time. "They can barely get around, but they're both so excited to see another baby," he says. "And so the low-ranking kid goes wobbling over to say 'hi'. But then, just as she gets near, the low-ranking mom grabs her daughter and drags her back. The poor kid has no idea what's happened, but she's just received her first lesson in the social hierarchy. The high-ranking kid is not somebody she can play with." For Sapolsky, the tragedy of such interactions is their lasting legacy. "I can come back 25 years later, when these kids are old matriarchs, and they'll be acting out the same dynamic. When they meet, the low ranking baboon will just stare at the ground. That's what her mom was trying to teach her. She was being taught how to live with low rank. She was learning how to cope."That coping comes with a steep cost. In a controlled lab experiment led by Jay Kaplan at Wake Forest University School of Medicine in North Carolina, a study involved macaques, small primates who, like baboons, live in a rigid social hierarchy. The scientists quickly discovered that macaques of high rank were less likely to develop heart disease, despite the fact that all of the animals were fed a diet high in saturated fat and cholesterol.They also conducted experiments in which monkeys were put into a new enclosure, a move that forced them to struggle to maintain their status. This led to increased heart rate and blood pressure. (In fact, Kaplan saw a rise in arterial plaque even when the stressed monkeys were fed a low-fat diet.) The effect was more pronounced for females. Normally, male primates are twice as likely to suffer from heart disease. This difference between the sexes disappears, however, when females lose their rank. A similarly destructive process is at work in humans. Doctors speculated that increasing rates of cardiovascular disease in women might be linked to the rising number employed outside the home, but that correlation turned out to be nonexistent. There were, however, two glaring exceptions to the rule: women were more likely to develop heart disease if they performed menial clerical work or when they had an unsupportive boss. The work wasn't the problem. It was the subordination.One of the most tragic aspects of the stress response is the way it gets hard-wired at a young age -- an early setback can permanently alter the way we deal with future stressors. The biological logic of this system is impeccable: if the world is a rough and scary place, then the brain assumes it should invest more in our stress machinery, which will make us extremely wary and alert. There's also a positive feedback loop at work, so that chronic stress actually makes us more sensitive to the effects of stress.The physiology underlying this response has been revealed in the laboratory. When rats are stressed repeatedly, the amygdala -- an almond-shaped nub in the centre of the brain -- enlarges dramatically. (This swelling comes at the expense of the hippocampus, which is crucial for learning and memory and shrinks under severe stress.) The main job of the amygdala is to perceive danger and help to generate the stress response; it's the brain area turned on by dark alleys and Hitchcock movies. Unfortunately, a swollen amygdala means that we're more likely to notice potential threats in the first place, which means we spend more time in a state of anxiety. (This helps to explain why a more active amygdala is closely correlated with atherosclerosis.) The end result is that we become more vulnerable to the very thing that's killing us.This acute sensitivity also makes us more vulnerable to stress-related diseases. Just ask Michael Marmot, a professor of epidemiology and public health at University College London. For the past 25 years, he's been running the Whitehall study, an exhaustive longitudinal survey launched in 1967 that has tracked some 28,000 men and women working in London. What makes the study so compelling is its uniformity. Every subject is a civil servant, a cog in the vast governmental bureaucracy. They all have access to the same healthcare system, don't (generally) have to worry about getting laid off and spend most of their workdays shuffling papers.The British civil service comes with one other feature that makes it ideal for studying stress: it's hierarchical, with a precise classification scheme for employees. At the bottom are messengers, porters and security guards. Just above them are the clerical officers, followed by staff scientists and other professionals. This last group implements the policies dictated by powerful administrators who run the governmental agencies. Marmot wanted to investigate how differences in status "in people who are neither very poor nor very rich" might lead to measurable differences in health.The differences are dramatic. After tracking thousands of civil servants for decades, Marmot was able to demonstrate that between the ages of 40 and 64, workers at the bottom of the hierarchy had a mortality rate four times higher than that of people at the top. Even after accounting for genetic risks and behaviours such as smoking and binge drinking, employees at the bottom still had nearly double the mortality rate of those at the top.What, then, determines our health? Why were people in the lower ranks of Whitehall dying at a younger age? Marmot was forced to conclude that the significant majority of variation is caused by psychosocial factors, most notably stress. People of lower status in the Whitehall study experienced more negative stress, and this stress was deadly. (To take but one data point: fully two-thirds of an individual's risk of stroke was attributable to the person's socioeconomic status.) In fact, we're so sensitive to the effects of status that getting promoted from the lowest level in the civil service reduced the probability of heart disease by up to 13 percentage points. Climbing the social ladder makes us live longer.However, the Whitehall results aren't a straightforward analysis of stress, at least not as it's usually defined. After all, people in leadership positions often describe their jobs as extremely stressful. They work longer hours and have more responsibilities than those at the bottom of the bureaucratic hierarchy. Consider the self-report of Nigel, a high-status administrator: "There were 2,000 people, and I was responsible for all the personnel aspects, contracts and all the common service… It had every sort of challenge that you could ever wish to meet. A very active job and a lot of stress, but a very enjoyable job -- and you got a tremendous amount of satisfaction from doing a good job."Notice the reference to stress; undoubtedly Nigel thought of himself as under lots of pressure. In contrast, here's the self-report of Marjorie, a typist: "I went to the pool and sat there typing documents. Which was absolutely soul-destroying… The fact that we could eat sweets and smoke was absolute heaven, but we were not allowed to talk." Researchers refer to the "demand-control" model of stress, in which the damage caused by chronic stress depends not just on the demands of the job but on the extent which we can control our response. "If an employee has a high degree of control over work, it is less stressful and will have less impact," Marmot writes. (This helps to explain why the women with the meanest bosses showed the highest incidence of heart disease.) The moral is that the most dangerous kinds of stress don't feel that harmful. It's not the late night at the office that's going to kill us; it's the feeling that nothing can be done about any current stressful situation. The person most at risk of heart disease isn't the high-powered executive anxious about their to-do list -- it's the frustrated office cleaner stuck suffering from existential despair.

New Fantasy Land; Millions Playing Make-Believe, While Real Millions Are Made
Hubbuch, Bart, The Florida Times Union
Byline: Bart Hubbuch, Times-Union sports writer
They track down Peyton Manning in airports.
They come up to Fred Taylor in restaurants and grocery stores.
They won't let Tony Gonzalez have one moment of peace at the local movie theater.
They all say the same thing:
" 'Play good for me, because I'm starting you this week,' " said Taylor, the Jaguars running back. "If I've heard that once, I've heard it a million times. I'm telling you, it never ends.''
They are fantasy football players. They are what NFL stars -- particularly quarterbacks, running backs and receivers -- once considered amusing but now sometimes view as annoying.
For such on-the-field players as Manning, Taylor and Gonzalez, there is no escape from the fantasy owner on the street because there is no slowing the interest in fantasy football.
According to trade groups, at least 12 million people now occupy their fall and winter weekends by "drafting'' players off NFL rosters and competing against friends in games and leagues decided by the statistical performances of those players.
It's an offshoot of rotisserie league baseball and office football pools, both of which have been around for decades. And it appears to be turning into a nothing short of a national obsession.
Fantasy football has nothing to do with the actual NFL teams, which is why Manning knows that thousands of people will eagerly watch him quarterback the Indianapolis Colts against the Jaguars today without caring one bit about who wins or loses.
"They'll come up to me in the airport and won't even ask for my autograph or ask about the game,'' Manning said. "They just care that I'm their fantasy quarterback or that Marvin Harrison is their fantasy receiver, so I should throw it to him a lot.''
The nationwide rise of fantasy football also is fattening the financial bottom line of a whole host of magazines, Internet sites and even the NFL itself.
With fantasy football foremost on its in mind, the league last year sold its online rights to America Online, Viacom and CBS Sportsline in a deal worth a reported $300 million over five years.
The NFL also has its own fantasy football service, part of which is free -- at least for the time being -- that ballooned last year to more than 1.8 million players from just 300,000 when it started in 2000.
"The growth in interest in fantasy football has been tremendous just in the past five years,'' said Chris Russo, the NFL's senior vice president for new media and publishing. "It's really gone through the roof.''
Easy to get hooked
The formula for the rise of fantasy football is no mystery: The NFL is the most popular spectator sport in the United States, and the Internet has made simple the once-arduous task of compiling fantasy statistics and standings.
As a result, friends and acquaintances from around the globe can square off in complicated fantasy leagues each week with minimal effort.
"The wonderful thing about fantasy football is the community it creates among the fantasy players,'' the NFL's Russo said. "Friends from college, even 10 or 15 years later, are keeping in contact because of these leagues.''
The rise in fantasy football also is creating a legion of "fantasy widows'' -- people whose significant others have an endless, fantasy-fueled appetite for NFL football on Sundays and Mondays this time of year.
The fantasy-widow phenomenon is no joke. Research by the league shows that fantasy players watch as much as three more hours of NFL football each week than non-fantasy players.
Aaron Dalin, a 28-year-old manager of business development for CNN in New York, willingly includes himself among the ranks of fantasy addicts.
Dalin, who competes in fantasy football with high school friends in Jacksonville, has three fantasy teams and also is in charge of running an entire fantasy league. …

As proud as I am to cheer for the various Cyclone sports teams, it makes me even more proud when they accomplish athletic success while also achieving academic success. The article about Booker indicated that his mother commented that he received what she wanted, his degree, and I remember reading about WC stating that he had his degree at the end of last semester. Obviously Melvin is in track to earn his degree since he is scholar athlelete of the year for the entire Big 12. Does anybody know how else of the seniors might have already graduated, and how the other players are doing academically? I remember last year the team grade point was above 3.0, pretty impressive for a D1 basketball program.
Based upon what I have read about the new recruit blue eyes is chasing, they all seem to be strong students so it would appear his focus is on athletes that will make the Cyclones fan base proud for their accomplishments both on and off the field. For me, this makes me twice as proud to be a Cyclone.
Couldn't hear the PA over the crowd where I was sitting on senior night, but I think all of the RS seniors (Lucious, Clyburn, Babb, Booker) got theirs in the summer or fall semesters already.
All the seniors except for Tyrus have already graduated. Lucious, Clyburn, Babb, Booker, and McBeth all received their degrees already.
"Whoever said it doesn't matter if you win or lose probably lost."

And Tyrus is one class away, right?
It's an impressive achievement across the board.

Tyrus has one class yet.

Correct, Hoiberg said that on one of cyclonefanatic's videos. Maybe the senior day one, but I'm not sure.
How do we get the TV announcers to talk about that on the air. You have to think the parent of any potential recruit would love to hear that if you play until you are senior at ISU, Hoiberg will make sure you attend classes and get that degree. Having all the seniors with degrees might be more of an accomplishment that what they accomplished on the court. Count me as one proud Cyclone.

Yep Tyrus will be the last to graduate in the summer. I think Babb, Booker, and McBeth have graduated. Clyburn and Lucious are gonna graduate at the end of this semester. Tyrus after the first summer term i'm sure.
I'm shocked all these bad seeds have graduated or are about to. What was Fred thinking when he tried the transfer strategy?????
Jim Lad
Not only is it a great personal achievement for them all, but it means they have more time to work on their games with all that free time probably!
Really a great accomplishment for all of them. Babb and Booker graduated in 4 years. Korie and Will did in 4.5. And Tyrus is very close.
It's kind of silly to be proud of people that you don't know, but I am kind of proud of them.

Get More Kicks On Route 66
We spent 1 year evaluating our options for marketing and screening Jesus of Malibu.
We always wanted to stay true to our cause, never interested in fame, money, success, or acceptance, we made this film with nothing , all based upon truth.
The film was envisioned 7 years ago by Anais and myself, and our mission statement then was to " Make a Transcendental Film" one that could change the world, 2 fold; with its message and purpose.
Therefore we decided to never sell our film, submit it to film festivals, or film distributors, Jesus of Malibu would be used for only the cause.
This cause is Mindy's Wish and FoundationMindys Wish and Foundation

Welcome to the Guild Mobius64!
Well I thought I would just introduce myself becuase that seems to be the done thing on forums and the like.
I hope to become good at making fantasy maps (I was very impressed by the quality of maps as I entered the site!). I had a little go at making a map for a Play-By-Post game I had made called 'Heartfall' and I found it quite fun.
Anyway, that's all I can think to say.
Welcome to the Guild Mobius64!

For simply being competitive and striving to win, Lewis is hated, Television channels dont even want to show the unfortunate booing at Monza, behaviour reminiscent of racist chants in Spain a few years ago. No other driver in F1 is subjected to these things. Yes, he has made costly mistakes and I hope he has learned from them. I really respect people like Alonso who view Lewis from the competence point of view and not all that other nonsense that forces people to lose objectivity.
I will be happy to see Lewis move to Mercedes, Brawn is by far smarter that Whitmarsh, people will see what Lewis will do with that car next year.

Hey all,
I've been thinking about trying out my first race sometime soon. I'm wondering whether I would be able to keep up with cat 5s. Going solo, I can average 20mph on a 21 mile ride with about 1000 ft of elevation gain, and 19 mph on a 45 mile ride also with 1000 ft of elevation gain. Having never raced before, I'm just curious whether I'm likely to be able to stay with the group in a cat 5 race.
Thanks in advance for the input.

All quotes tagged Discriminated
(367 quotes found)
"From the viewpoint of absolute truth, what we feel and experience in our ordinary daily life is all delusion. Of all the various delusions, the sense of discrimination between oneself and others is the worst form, as it creates nothing but unpleasant"
"Society's double behavioral standard for women and for men is, in fact, a more effective deterrent than economic discrimination because it is more insidious, less tangible. Economic disadvantages involve ascertainable amounts, but the very nature of societal value judgments makes them harder to define, their effects harder to relate."
"If discrimination based on race is constitutionally permissible when those who hold the reins can come up with "compelling" reasons to justify it, then constitutional guarantees acquire an accordionlike quality."
"I hate racial discrimination most intensely and all its manifestations. I have fought all my life; I fight now, and will do so until the end of my days. Even although I now happen to be tried by one, whose opinion I hold in high esteem, I detest most violently the set-up that surrounds me here. It makes me feel that I am a Black man in a White man's court. This should not be I should feel perfectly at ease and at home with the assurance that I am being tried by a fellow South African, who does not regard me as an inferior, entitled to a special type of justice."
"We have a lot more work to do in our common struggle against bigotry and discrimination. I say 'common struggle' because I believe very strongly that all forms of bigotry and discrimination are equally wrong and should be opposed by right-thinking Americans everywhere. Freedom from discrimination based on sexual orientation is surely a fundamental human right in any great democracy, as much as freedom from racial, religious, gender, or ethnic discrimination."
"JOY is a deceptive trap; grief is the real preceptor, teaching caution, circumspection, discrimination, detachment, awareness and vigilance."
"We're opposed to any employer's policy of discrimination based on sexuality. This is based on our reading of the Vermont Constitution and the U.S. Constitution as well. We honor the military and those that serve in it. Many of our students and faculty are veterans. But one does not preclude the other,"

NFL grades
Detroit Lions, St. Louis Rams and the Kansas City Chiefs. I'm not only giving these three failing grades for the week, but also putting them on double secret probation. And this will be the last time I will discuss their horrible play again this season in any column I write. From this moment forward, I am working with 29 teams for the F grade. At halftime yesterday, these three teams were down 72-16 combined. They are not only really bad, but also show no sign of ever getting competitive.
rest is here
Chiefs, Lions, Rams are ungradeable - Michael Lombardi - SI.com
My cheifs are going for the #1 draft pick. We could use a QB like Tebow (or anyone for that matter)
32 years later and I am still riding on the back.

Robson hails returning star and provides update on ex-Fulham & Everton men
08:40 19 November 2012
PA Wire/Press Association Images
Barnet joint head coach Mark Robson was delighted to see the return of Ricky Holmes to the Bees side.
The winger has been out of action for the past few weeks due to an ankle injury but made an immediate impact – winning the penalty from which Barnet equalised.
"It's good to see him back in," Robson said. "We've missed him and his qualities. We saw tonight some of the stuff that he done was first class.
"It's good to have him back. He's a thorn in anybody's side.
"I think he'll be okay. He was tired. He had been out for a while. He's full of effort Ricky.
"He doesn't stop running to be fair to him. It was, literally, bring him off, make a change. While he was tired we wanted to make sure he didn't pull anything."
However, it's not all good news as John Oster is set to continue his spell on the sidelines, along with Collins John.
"I'm not sure with John Oster," Robson added.
"He's obviously a player of experience that is a big player for the team. We hope to get him back sooner or later.
"Collins John is not yet fit to play. I don't think he'll be fit for Tuesday.
"I couldn't give you a time at the moment."

How do you help your aging parents when they're sick?
Published Jan 6, 2006
I don't know about you, but I have many friends – people in their late 30s, 40s and 50s – who are worried about their parents as they are getting older and getting sick.
My friend Nancy is just 37. Her mother has severe diabetes and neuropathy. Her father had a stroke and continued worries about his heart. They live about 30 miles from Nancy, a bit closer to her brother. Both Nancy and her brother shuttle back and forth when there's a health crisis, and they worry about their parents a lot. Sometimes Nancy just scoops up Mom and Dad and takes them back to her house. Those older folks are accepting of the help.
But my friend Randy's mother is not. Things got pretty bad as she ignored some early warning signs. Now, she has a long list of doctors and a difficult road ahead of her.
The same thing happened to my friend Amy, whose parents wanted no help from their daughter when Dad got an uncommon cancer. Amy worked in the health information field. She could help them and his doctor connect with the latest resources. But she was told to keep her distance. Finally, when the condition became quite terminal, they invited her in. Alas, by then it was too late to help.
I have to admit, I'm stuck on this one. How much can adult children help their parents when they are sick? How can this be approached correctly? How can a child head off problems they see clearly when the parent does not?
I bet you have a lot to say about this, and I'd really love to hear your advice and stories.
