Ethical Issue w/ Lawyer Giving False Information Knowingly
My question involves malpractice by a lawyer in the state of: CA
I just had a quick question. My friend received a document from a eligible practicing lawyer (Esq.) informing that it is a criminal complaint. However, in the document, which was sent via email and a pdf attached, also had the wrong name of an individual, in fact two individuals. The document did not have a case number of court file. The person who made the complaint did not use their real name and the lawyer knew this fact and continued with the document. The individual is well known and uses an alias and not her legal birth name on a government document. The lawyer knew this is an alias and not a legal name. The document informed of the criminal case and further action from my friend. The lawyer even said it was ok to contact him. Is this unethical of the lawyer who knowingly continued to do this? What are the ramifications? I view this as unethical because the information and accusations are false, which can be proven. Also, Of the three individuals that are involved in this case, two of the names of two individuals are incorrect and inaccurate with no bases. I feel that this lawyer is using her professional status to "threaten" my friend. What can be done because I feel that this is dishonest and against the code of ethics. As a lawyer, the information must be correct and he knows who he is sending it out to. Please give suggestions and your opinions on this matter.

Since we have not seen the letter and gathered all of the facts you have chosen not to disclosed in your posting, one here can only guess what you call innacuracies, false accusations, correctness of information, etc... The best thing you can do is to take the letter and all the evidence you have to an attorney so s/he can evaluate it and advise you on how to proceed next. Good luck to you!Do not consider postings legal advice. Always consult with an attorney.

Thank you for replying. I have been waiting for someone to give me an opinion all night long. Ok, to brief you on the topic.
1. Can you receive a legal document via email with an attached .pdf file as a "true" legal document? I thought you had to sign to receive it.
2. The name of the person making this complaint used an alias and not a legal name. In this aspect, the lawyer knows this is not the person's true name.
3. The person who made the complaint claims or computer hacking activities, in which the person making the complaint initiated the first contact via email, telephone, etc. There are plenty of proof and pictures that stalking was not committed because this person invited my friend to dinner, paid for dinner, took pictures in which both parties were sincerely happy.
4. The person claimed my friend hacked in the email address, but there is an alibi for many of the messages and text messages saved on my friend's phone proving otherwise.
5. My friend has contacted the email services, but they claim they cannot retrieve any ip addresses.
The letter is on a letterhead from the office, signed by the lawyer, but no case number. He is an active lawyer currently.

False Certainty
To know the future with certainty is the most ardent desire of humankind. It's terrifying to think the future isn't knowable, and so we do what we can to reduce the fear. The problem these days is that fewer and fewer people can stake a believable claim to being a soothsayer. And we have grown terribly dependent on those who speak and write with absolute assurance about where we're going.
The questions that most of us who write about politics and policy are asked more than any other begin with the words: "What do you think is going to happen with . . ." You can fill in the rest: the health-care bill, or the 2010 election, or cap-and-trade. What our interlocutors want from us is confidence, assurance; they think that since we do this sort of thing for a living, we can offer them an anchor in unsteady waters. That may be truer than ever today, even though the record of the recent past should teach us all that prognosticators are not to be trusted.
I know someone who has been an intimate adviser to elected officials at all levels, offering advice and counsel about what to do. He does what he does armed with all manner of facts and data. He's very, very brilliant. The problem is that half of what he predicts comes to pass and half turns out to be laughable; the same is true of the solutions he proposes. But it's not his track record that seduces the politicians who come to rely on him. It's his certainty.
Over the past 15 months, people who had spent the previous 25 years riding the wave of an economy that tripled in size and a stock market that rose nearly 18-fold have lost confidence in their own judgment. They confess they are at a loss to understand what the true condition of the economy is and the direction in which it will go. Perhaps the massive stimulus will continue to keep things afloat through 2010 until the private sector can make its way back; perhaps we are in for a second dip into recession; perhaps we are in for a very long period of very slow growth. And so they smile ruefully, hedge their bets, and look for cheap deals.
Back in the 1980s, the screenwriter William Goldman revolutionized the discussion of the motion-picture business when he observed that studio executives never had the foggiest idea which films would hit and which would miss. Goldman's three-word formula was astonishingly simple: "Nobody knows anything." This is the abashed mood of the nation, and it seems entirely appropriate.
The only people in America who are moving ahead heedlessly and without regard to the terrible economic uncertainty that has gripped us are the leaders of the Obama administration and their acolytes. Throughout 2009, they have moved relentlessly, accumulating unprecedented levels of public debt, nationalizing the auto industry, setting salary levels at banks, and pushing a health-care package that will require the imposition of huge tax increases on the middle class.
Before the economic meltdown, only the most radically minded leftist would have believed that a severe downturn was the proper moment to be forcing through a cascade of new imposts, onerous regulations, and a massive increase in the size of the public sector. Had Barack Obama inherited a booming economy, his effort to push one or two of these major changes in the relation between the citizenry and the government could have been easily defended as an appropriate use of national wealth. But all of them at once? He would have been criticized, properly, and by some members of his own party, for endangering the nation's prosperity.
Now that America seems less prosperous, it is even more astonishing that this should be the course Obama has set. His unlikely rise to the presidency is an example of the validity of the "nobody knows anything" theory. He should have heeded it instead of giving in to a false certainty that might threaten the nation's future and imperil his own.

For Africa to take its rightful place and be more relevant in today's world, it is going to need visionary leadership and cooperation, President Paul Kagame said.
The President made the remarks, Saturday, while addressing members of the Oxbridge Club during their annual Spring Lecture in Lagos, Nigeria.
The Oxbridge Club comprises Oxford and Cambridge alumni.
The Club is renowned for two main calendar events, the May Ball (typically held in June) and its annual lectures traditionally referred to as "The Spring Lecture".
The President was the first incumbent Head of State to address the Club.
"Africa today has the opportunity to play its rightful role in the global arena. But to do so requires the continent to speak with one voice and to be competitive in all aspects, which in turn demands radical socio-economic transformation," Kagame said.
"For this to happen, African countries need a new kind of leadership - one that has a vision for the country and a passion and commitment for its rapid development as well as the well-being of its people."
The leadership, Kagame added, must be confident, assertive, innovative and committed to promoting and defending the continent's interest.
"Above all, it should be prepared to seek solutions from within the philosophies and practices of our societies to various challenges that we face, and develop ideas to propel our countries forward."
"Sometimes, this might require going beyond the conventional and embracing the unorthodox."
The President, however, noted that no individual leader or country can achieve the desired continent-wide change on their own and the leadership of African countries should seek and promote cooperation amongst them.
"Africa is not where it should be, not because of a lack of resources or human capital," he said.
"The issue has been that we still do not have enough leaders across a variety of fields with ideas to change our societies, the capacity to mobilise our people, and vision and drive to spur innovation and competitiveness."
But, the trend is beginning to change.
In the last two decades, President Kagame observed, Africa has begun to move again and entered a new phase.
"We are no longer looking to the outside for solutions to internal issues because home-grown ideas provide the answer, not only for development but also for the restoration of our dignity," Kagame said.
"That means change because the status quo has proved unsatisfactory."
"The collected, accumulated wisdom resulting from both culture and participation has the effect of making people shareholders in the enterprise that is their country. As you all know, shareholders want and expect good dividends."
The President shared Rwanda's experience with home grown solutions.
He cited Gacaca courts, a traditional conflict resolution mechanism, that tried close to two million cases in the aftermath of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.
In a decade, the Gacaca courts cost less than one billion dollars, yet the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda tried only sixty cases at double the cost - about two billion dollars.
But the significance of Gacaca goes beyond numbers of cases and their cost.
"Because it (Gacaca) was the first home-grown solution successfully applied to a seemingly intractable problem, it inspired and empowered Rwandans to seek and use similar initiatives for broader national development," the President observed.
"Its success catalysed the generation of ideas and values crucial to national development - resilience, self-reliance, confidence and social cohesion."
Rwanda has adopted similar initiatives to eradicate poverty and improve the lives of the people.
Between 2005 and 2010, the county's poverty levels dropped by 12%, from 56.9% to 44.9% .
"What works internally may have application to intra-African situations, particularly as we focus on greater cooperation and integration, trade and investment in order to keep up with the emerging and the traditional strong economies." Kagame pointed out.
"This approach of greater cooperation also extends to peace and stability, and that is why today, African leaders are investing in continent-generated solutions to issues of political stability and conflict resolution."

I cannot remember a time in my life where I didn't eat dumplings. When I was young my family were never the type to eat at an Italian or Indian restaurant, if we went out for lunch or dinner, it was always to a suburban Chinese restaurant where garish chandeliers that reflected subtle neon lights hung on the ceiling and deep red and yellow patterned carpets were splayed on the floor. For me Yum Cha is like being part of a theatre production, the waiters push rattling trolleys filled with steaming bamboo baskets of fluffy pork buns, translucent prawn dumplings and more obscure delights. Chopsticks clack, hot jasmine tea is slurped, pale pink table cloths are flung into the air to seat the next hungry diners in line! It's a welcomed sensory overload for a Sunday afternoon.
This Sunday a new kind of Yum Cha is taking place in the lush surrounds of Melbourne's Treasury Gardens to celebrate Chan's Biggest Outdoor Yum Cha and the opening weekend of the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival. Not only will family and friends gather to take part in a delicious dumpling feast provided by Chan's but there will be an attempt to break the Guinness World Records biggest outdoor yum cha. I've heard the current record stands at about 500! I will be there to as host and to share with you a five-course dumpling banquet, plus there are a whole heap of activities for the family to enjoy and Chan's goodies to take away with you!
Find out more information on Chan's Biggest Outdoor Yum Cha and celebrate all things dumplings (and dragons) in with me!

When it comes to fall pumpkin decor, do you favor real or fake? I love the look of a real-life decorative gourd for an outdoor display, but if I'm putting in serious crafting time, I'm all about the foam pumpkin. Why? I can decorate once and have a one-of-a-kind pumpkin for years to come.
This week, I present three faux pumpkin crafts that pull double duty. These look as good on your front porch come trick-or-treating time as they do as part of your Thanksgiving tablescape. To get started, you'll need two things: A foam pumpkin and a big box of dressmakers' pins. (Glitter optional, but highly recommended.) Take a look at this simple-yet-stunning technique:
Check out all three finished versions:
Are you a real or faux pumpkin fan? Tell me in the comments below. As always, if you've missed any past episodes of HGTV Crafternoon you can find them all right here.

Released in the App Store in May 2011, Pinterest is the official iOS app of the popular pinboard-style photo sharing website of the same name.
It was originally optimized for iPhone and iPod touch only. But in August last year, it gained native iPad compatibility through a major update, after which it was named as AppAdvice's App of the Week.
As mentioned, Pinterest for iOS has received another update, which adds a couple of new features along with some stability improvements.
With the newly updated Pinterest app, you are now able to edit your pins. Just select any of your pins and tap the new edit button. You are then free to change the pin's description, move the pin to a different board, or delete the pin entirely.
Also, you are now able to manage comments in the app. This means that you can delete any comments made on your pins, whether by you or by other users. Additionally, you can delete the comments you've made on others' pins.
The newly updated app also includes improved scroll performance and some bug fixes.

30.9 x 47.1 cm panel; 42.0 x 59.0 x 4.3 cm frame
Honfleur, Le Havre and the more fashionable Trouville are among the handful of French coastal sites celebrated in the art of Eugene Boudin. A devotee of seascape, it is proper to refer to him as a marine painter. Yet Boudin is really a painter of air. In everything he produced air predominates. It fills his tiny compositions like the wind filling the crinolines of his female figures. Encouraged by Jean Millet, he trained for a time with Isabey, though neither of these established figures could be said to have formed his style. Indeed in some ways, Boudin was more influential than influenced. Monet, for example, revered him. Boudin's impressionist affiliation was so strong that he exhibited at the first of the movement's group shows in 1874.

1. Minutes: The November, 2011 minutes were approved through email discussion and posted to the HathiTrust website.
2. Finances
3. Organizational issues
The Communications Working Group continued what are now routine activities to highlight new partners. The group also worked through a number of scenarios to announce the major milestone of 10 million volumes, vetted those with the Collections Committee and Executive Committee, and crafted and released the appropriate announcement. The group continues to monitor the perception of HathiTrust within the media and conference landscape, and look for opportunities to highlight HathiTrust. The group is poised to announce new HathiTrust governance as it goes into place, and would appreciate notification from the Executive Committee ahead of time to plan for the announcement. It would be helpful to understand the timeline as it becomes more refined, and what kinds of messages that the leadership would like to emphasize in the communication. Project Bamboo has reached out to the Communications WG asking us to promote their newsletter, and we have advised them that we'd like to link to specific Bamboo/HathiTrust interactions and projects. We are working with them to highlight their use of HathiTrust data. On the February call, the Comms WG plans to spend time looking at our stated objectives, analyzing what we have/haven't accomplished, considering the challenges of we face in accomplishing work, and discussing whether we want to make a recommendation to the new board of governors.
Since releasing the HathiTrust Personas (http://www.hathitrust.org/personas [1]) in November, the group has focused on more advisory tasks. Topics of discussion come from either current UI work being done in the MLibrary UX department or via a list of requested features that the group compiled based on user feedback and other internal discussions. Topics the group has been discussing include:
The group will be revisiting the pending topics above as the MLibrary UX department is able to provide new mockups and more information for review and discussion. These conversations have been extremely valuable!
In addition to regular activity responding to user inquiries, the User Support Working Group spent monthly calls at the end of 2011 and early 2012 evaluating its processes, workflows, and performance since it began in March 2011. This was done to prepare recommendations on a future structure and processes for responding to user feedback, which is part of the group's charge. A number of ideas to improve efficiency in responding to inquiries and communicating within the group surfaced and have been implemented. The group has completed a draft report on recommendations that it expects to submit to the Executive Committee in February.
Three members left the group over the fall: Bob Kackley, Todd Ito, and Nancy Spiegel. Two new members have since joined the group: Kathryn Stine of California Digital Library, and Cassandra Fox of MIT.

Early Visitors to Easter Island 1864-1877 Translated by Ann M. Altman, Easter Island Foundation, $15, ISBN 1880636050
THE first foreigners to live on Easter Island were Eugène Eyraud and Hippolyte Roussel, French missionaries who endured appalling conditions to bring the gospel to the islanders. Alas, the accounts they wrote for their superiors in Paris took little note of the island's archaeological remains - even the famous stone statues. But they provided the very first reports of the mysterious "rongorongo" script found on wooden tablets.
Their descriptions are included in the latest book in a fine series from the Easter Island Foundation. It comprises English translations of these accounts and two other key texts written by visitors in the late 19th century.
Pierre Loti, the best-known of the four authors, left a diary in which he described his brief visit of a few days, together with some ...

Nobutatsu Suzuki was crowned the inaugural One FC welterweight champion today in front of a packed crowd inside Stadium Negara in in Kuala Lumpur.
Japanese star Suzuki, whose striking looked sharp throughout, claimed unanimous points victory over former UFC vet Brock Larson to claim the vacant title and enhance his exciting pro record to 10-1-2.
Larson quickly asserted his wrestling credentials by taking Suzuki down and landing several elbows in the first round, but Suzuki enjoyed success with his accurate knees in the second round that had Larson scrambling for a takedown.
The third round was fairly tentative, with Suzuki attempting several knee strikes while Larson tried in vain to get a takedown. But Suzuki continued landing strikes to Larsons midsection in the fourth and fifth rounds, prompting Larson to tempt Suzuki to compete with him on the ground.
However, a disinterested Suzuki allowed Larson to stand back up on numerous occasions, only to continue dishing out significant strikes to Larsons midsection towards the final bell.ONE FC: WAR OF NATIONS OFFICIAL RESULTS

Aberdeen had been the main sea port base of the Scottish Covenanters, but on 12th September 1644, a Royalist army led by Lord Montrose marched on the town. The following day, they called for its surrender, but the inhabitants refused to give in without a fight. Even though the Covenanters had the larger force, they were defeated, and the Royalist army swept through the town, pillaging, murdering and raping its inhabitants. After three days, Montrose heard that the Covenanting commander, the Marquis of Argyll, was advancing, and so decided to withdraw. Apart from the bloodshed, therefore, the Battle of Aberdeen had little ultimate impact on the progress of the civil war.

More than 10 schools that were caught up in Isiolo's tribal skirmishes last year performed poorly in the KCPE examination.
Speaking to the press yesterday, Isiolo Knut executive secretary Dadhe Boru said the KCPE mean score had dropped from 38 to 36 points this year.
He urged government to beef up security so that students do not have to miss out on classes as happened last year. Boru said students can only perform well in a conducive learning environment.

Will you buy the new 1190?

He said it's not a fun bike for stop and go situations with all that extra mass. When I asked "what mass, I thought the 950 RR was lighter, more nimble"? I was politely informed that the nav tower required bigger support bracketry and with the nav gear added alot of up front weight. Also the rear subframe was much beefier, and with the rear aux. tank assembly you really felt the added weight... and that was before being fully fueled. The KTM tech said he'd much rather have the standard R with a few simple mods.
That saved me many sleepless nights of wishful thinking from here on.
But who doesn't LOVE the looks of those bikes... IMHO.
And the 1190 seems like quite a departure from that Rally style too.
Now that is a story!!!!
Have a look at any of the pictures of the 950RR to see for yourself if it is heavier than the 950/990 advnetures;
The rear subrframe has less reinforcement than the production parts as they dont have to carry pillions/luggage, only fuel,
Nav towers (and Im basing this on my 690 rr part) weighs next to nothing, fairings and screen are composite,
No battery or cast iron oil tank weight impacting on the forks,
Lighter frame (pics show less reinforcing lattice).
Obviously I havent ridden the original but having read (at length) of the developement of the bike by Meoni I'll bet it would kick the ass of ANY production offering in both weight, handling and performance.
I cant believe you believed it!!!!!
For those who sit at home and dream-let them...Meoni

Austria is projected to spend US$13.3 billion on its armed forces during the forecast period. Defense expenditure registered a CAGR of -1.33% during the review period, primarily due to the European debt crisis which led to a slowdown of the economic activities in emerging markets, including Austria. Expenditure to be driven by peacekeeping missions and the acquisition of advanced defense systems.
The Austrian economy has begun to recover from the 2008 recession; however the pace of recovery is, expected to be slow. To counter the mounting deficit and increasing public debt, the government is cutting back on its expenditure, including that on defense. This is expected to adversely affect military procurement expenditure over the next five years, and the domestic industry,

Whether you're racing in the French Alps or Alpine Valley, Wisconsin, racing is pretty much just racing. The difference is atmosphere. Get one whiff of this Mad Alchemy Euro Pro Chamois Creme and you'll be transported to a valley in the French Alps, no matter which Alpine Valley you happen to be in.
Just unscrew the lid and you'll know it; your olfactory senses will breathe in scents of cedar forests and alpine herbs, moving your mind and body to a calming place as you suit up. More importantly, the creme will coat your undercarriage with essential oils mixed into the lubricating film to smooth out the ride and to help prevent bacterial and fungal growth.
It's worth noting that all three Mad Alchemy chamois creme formulations work with the same base ingredients. As such, they share similar viscosity, lubricity, and are safe for both hommes and femmes. They are all veggie-based with high-quality ingredients. The main difference is the scents, though La Femme has a higher concentration of the essential oils that can help fight potential infections.
The Mad Alchemy Euro Pro Chamois Creme comes in a 4 oz (120ml) tub.

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The smell is what hits you first, fir, wintergreen, very fresh. Not overpowering, I really enjoy it. The viscosity as some others have stated is similar to mayo. I appreciate the fact that it is less chemical and more natural. It does it's job very well and holds up through summer, winter, fall and every discipline I've put it through. I would put it on par with DZ-Nuts but with a better aroma factor.
Great stuff
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Over 100 miles MTB in Sedona in one week, Mad Alchemy kept me moving with no issues. My new go to favorite.
Love it
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I typically don't use a cream when i ride, but when i do, this is the best stuff out there. It has just the right amount of tingle when you apply. Only downside is it tends to wear off on long rides (50+ mi). Applying more than you think tends to solve this problem. Recommend!

Different But Still Good
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
My preface: this is my opinion, not objective fact.
I have used Assos for years and also have tried D-Z Nuts. Assos is my go-to but bought the MA when I picked up some of their embro creme. This is good stuff and if you are looking for something different from the others, MA is a nice option. Specifically, I find it less medicated/minty/tingly than Assos and much less than DZ. Also, it has a different viscosity...instead of pasty (Assos) or like lotion (DZ), it is kind of like gel. It feels a little like mayonnaise or yogurt. Once you get past the thought of spreading a condiment on your junk, it works well. It goes on thick but smells pleasant and seems to be more natural than its competitors. I still prefer Assos (or DZ if I can find it on sale) but the MA will do you just fine.

I Like It
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This chamois creme works at least as well as the other major brands I've tried. But it smells better and is somewhat easier to use since it comes in a tub rather than a tube.
I like it a lot.
You'll really like this
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Nice and cool on your good spots. Super smooth and not too creamy.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
That's all you need to know, it's awesome. Works better, smells better, stays on and lasts longer than anything else I've used. Mad Alchemy is best in class.

Thicker, smells better, works the same
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Picked this up after stock-outs on DZNuts and Assos cream, my typical go-tos. It's much thicker than either of those, and smells much stronger, but in a good way. The thickness seems to work well; four to five hour rides aren't a problem, and it sort of seems to disappear, feeling-wise, after twenty minutes or so. It's a good product. Smells like the woods. I like it for mountain biking, too.

Eating Out
Best cupcakes in San Francisco?
My boyfriend and I are staying with friends while we're visiting the city. As a thank you, we want to give our friends cupcakes for being such great hosts. We searched Yelp and it gave us eight (!!!) places with five stars. We were wondering which one is the best one to go to. I know it's vague, but we're not looking for one that has the best of a particular flavor.

Yep! Slack tube is just a way to make the connection/adjustment of slack between the rostra servo cable and the intermediate cable. The enclosed tube simply keeps the "slack" from hanging up on other hardware under the tank. The reason you can't connect the rostra servo cable DIRECTLY to the BMW Bowden box cable wheel is you need more cable length than is what is protruding from the Rostra cable. I considered cutting away some of the Rostra sheathing but was afraid I might damage the rostra cable...so I opted for the slack tube. I'm sure a direct connection could be made and if so would likely be a "slick" improvement.
Denase - no I have never altered TB sync after this mod. Bikes seem to run fine afterward. However if it runs rough simply sync the TBs or have OEM service do it.

Rhyme used in a sentence
How to use Rhyme in a sentence as a noun
Take the broken heart and stitch it up with some tears, Blush it up, dress it up and put it on ice, it keeps us cold, Frozen your lips turn lullabies numb, You're laughing melodies in time with heartbreak and rhyme. Don't go blowing me a kiss, 'Cause you'll see it break down in all it's elegance, Like a model wearing the wrong make-up for her own fashion parade.
I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned the hard way that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, or end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's to happen next.
"Ask me if I care Cause what I used to care about, just ain't there And ain't nothing fair, I knew this for a long time That's why with every wrong crime, comes another strong rhyme And I shouldn't have even done it, that's what made this sad Keep dwellin' on it, and it's gonna get stuck with you On this real, that's why a man stays writin' Cause kid, this is real, what you think, we play fightin'? Ain't nowhere to hide, ain't nowhere to run What more can they do to a man that ain't been done A mind is a terrible thing to waste Especially if it's all over the place" — DMX
Kind hearts are the gardens, Kind thoughts are the roots, Kind words are the blossoms, Kind deeds are the fruits. ~19th century rhyme used in primary schools
Fun Fact Friday! There are no words in the dictionary that rhyme with orange, purple and silver.
Lessons learned times are burned comming back was off track opened eyes they be wide sad to say went astray drifted tears drinking beers times came near dreams dreams sheared shifted away ,glory I gave gave tears sweat n years all for nothing nothings right days are nights as I comeback with opened eyes Wonderful land Desert sand As far as the eye can see See no not When coals are rhymet From choices once made ...Decisions are time Making rhyme Exalted by the pain Pain inside Forever I'll try And always get up again Again I'll fight Forever what's right? This why I stand-alone Alone I be Can't you see? When the choices are forbidden Forbidden to ask When completed a task Eyes shall become clear Clear to see The choices be Forever not controlled When given doubt Wandering about When not your time Time to see The choices be Not left to you You will see I shall bring Your decisions made Made you fight Wander in dark Blaming others but yourself Yourself will be In hatred you be When not understood Times will sing Your pain will ring And you will open your eyes By Carl .W. Sweet
Spitting a rhyme in no time Ready to recite every line I'm the reason you can't sleep at night Fright, you gonna be afraid of the man with the knife You'll run to try to save your life Run as much as you can, you wont hide From me, I ain't gonna rest til I put ya to sleep This isn't a beef, but you can call me a thief You'll be cold without ice You'll close your eyes Think is a lie? Think twice Listen up, here's my advice Get a gun and run until you have half a lung Is a long road rhymeme, your breath is gone Wanna know who rode this ride and lost her life I ain't done rhyme, I ain't chopped you with this knife Run as fast as you can Cuz I'm not an ordinary man Behind your door I stand Wanna know a secret, I'm insane

Your pinnin me down sucking the life from me But I like it When I can't even breath Love rhymew painful suffocation can be Force me down make me beg for forgiveness Never accept an apology But I like it Pleading for delicious twisted taste Love rhymew addictive suffocation can be Confusing your mind rhymein with each rhyme One word a line everytime Seeing Eye This code has to be cracked You asking PupA for a lil snack? Somethign to eat, one bite Feast on your mind my 16s Music like mrsa flowin thru me Welcome to my new ward My asylum your tomb Tick tock clokcs till they bomb boom Evil n laugh I can handle that PupA don't bark no signs comin before I attack
New Name Just reminiscing about the day While listing to Scott sitting all alone The moment the message took me far away It was the first time I really understood. that's the moment I met the lord I just know Like a perfect way a poem fits into a rhyme Now everything bad seems to go I promised my self back then I would never look back. Then came the falling doom The second my life was almost turned backwards So I went into a silent room Then I got off the winding highway to nowhere. Now I am doing unreliable things The type that make people proud but brings glory to god If your quite to this day you will hear my heart sings Being the man I want to be for the lord.
Wen i rhyme it comes from da soul my emotions its like a diary dat i share with others rhymepe yu understand
Welcome like # 45, we will not ask you rhymew nor why, but we rhymepe you listen to us from time to time. You can start with episode 11, it won't cost you a dime. Now with that it's time to say goodbye as a ran out of words to make sense and that rhyme. Public Relief Radio; Like, Listen, Loathe.
These people that are sick, Those people that act like a dick, The ones that cut and cry, The ones that curl up and die, They don't deserve this pain, They get thrown out in the rain, They deserve to breath air, Strong like a black bear, But people get pushed in the dark, No one cares as they leave a mark, But they have rhymepe they'll be happy, Girls rhymeping for a guy on one knee, I promise it will happen sometime, If you agree with what I rhyme, Then your crazy like me, but you will be destined to be.

Grades are getting low, The teens are getting high, That 12 year old is pregnant and her parents wonder why. A 1st grader is swearing, A 3rd grader has been raped, Just take a look around you, Isn't the system great?

No calls for help are spoken, Teens are smoking weed, Young girls are cutting,This isn't what we need. The marks of taunt and yelling, Parents are divorced, That 14 year old is drinking beer, This can't get any worse.

Life Under A Faint Sun
If you could have looked up at the sky 4 billion years ago, you would have seen a sun much dimmer than ours today. And if you looked down at the Earth's oceans, you would have seen an expanse of bobbing waves.
That's a problem--a simple one, but a big one. And scientists have been wrestling with it for fifty years.
The evidence for these two facts about the early Earth--a dim sun and liquid oceans--were already strong in the 1960s. Astronomers have compared our sun today to other stars of different sizes and ages, and they've been able to reconstruct much of its history. The sun started out about ...

Darin Gray named Cranford Johnson Robinson Woods president
Posted: February 19, 2014 at 11:25 a.m.
Arkansas' largest advertising, marketing and public relations firm has a new president.
Cranford Johnson Robinson Woods has named Springdale businessman Darin Gray, 49, to the post effective immediately, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Wayne Woods announced Wednesday. Gray is a founder of Gray Matters LLC of Fayetteville, which publishes the Northwest Arkansas Business Journal.
Gray will work from the company's Northwest Arkansas office in Johnson in Washington County, CJRW said. The firm also maintains an office at 303 W. Capitol Ave. in downtown Little Rock. Gray will split time between the locations while continuing to live in Springdale, the firm said.
Gray, who founded Gray Matters in 2004, announced Feb. 3 that he had placed the company in a family trust to be administered by his wife, Tami Gray. Gray Matters has published the Northwest Arkansas Business Journal since the company acquired the Northwest Arkansas division of Arkansas Business Publishing Group in June 2004. He had been president and publisher of the Northwest Arkansas Business Journal and its related publications since 1997, when the publication was founded as a division of Little Rock-based Arkansas Business Publishing Group, parent company to Arkansas Business.

Playful Perspectives is a new feature wherein your intrepid Toy Box Mommy (that's me) and The Toy Guy jointly tackle a topic to give you twice the insight and perhaps slightly different takes on an issue.
Summer is coming (the lovely little ice storm my area of the country was hit with yesterday notwithstanding). To some parents, summer is a time to look forward to; the kids are off school, the days are long and lazy, and everything is a little bit better. For working parents, it may mean more of the same, with modified childcare arrangements. But for many parents, it may mean the return battle cry we least like to hear: "I'm boooooooored!"
There's only one thing worse than that, you know. It's a child asking to [insert electronic activity here] when it's a beautiful day outside.
I'm not a Luddite by any means. My kids watch television, play games on the computer, and even have some hand-held electronic games. But I'm a firm believer in time-and-place rules. At my house, you don't watch TV when you could be out riding bikes. Hand-helds are great travel toys, but when I say "go outside and play" I do not mean go sit on the porch and play Super Mario. (Though I might mean go sit on the porch and read a book, which may be a slight contradiction of terms, but I'm the mommy and I make the rules.)
I think most parents would agree that, ideally, you want your kids outside getting fresh air and exercise when possible. The question becomes which toys foster their natural creative instincts and which ones can only work in a set way.
Come summer, I'm all about the classics. If a child dares to come tell me he/she's bored, I rattle off a list of suitable implements to alleviate said boredom: We have bikes, scooters, jump ropes, hula hoops, sidewalk chalk, bubbles, and—our personal favorite around here—assorted bug-catching paraphernalia.
On a good day, I'll catch the kids in an elaborate game of their own devising. Our driveway will be transformed into an elaborate obstacle course for caterpillars, perhaps, or they'll set off on a treasure hunt. (Word to the wise, though, never fall for "Close your eyes and put out your hands." Just sayin'.)
This is not to say that I don't see the time and place for those other activities. Or that I don't see great ways for kids' own creativity to take off within a more structured game. I am all about a great travel toy when the need arises, for example. Low-tech though it may be, when my kids were small we were all about Colorforms for the car or plane, and I loved listening to them come up with adventures based on their pictures. I'm just saying that in general I think that if we step back a bit—particularly when the weather's nice and we can get out of the house—kids will make their own magic, given the chance.
And then all I have to do is swoop in with the sunscreen and popsicles every so often. Everybody wins!
What do you think? And don't forget to go check out The Toy Guy's take!

Putting a little light in my life
I've always had a love for old things ... old houses, old barns, old furniture, old stuff and yes, even old people. I'm not exactly sure when I realized this - perhaps when I was living in Redwood Co...

Odd 'whatsits' made for farm, kitchen useUnfamiliar objects used by our ancestors continue to confuse and amuse today's collectors. "Whatsits" were a popular subject on television shows.

Kovels Antiques: Role of comfort in furniture has seen changesBefore the 1850s, few chairs were made for comfort. Seventeenth and early 18th-century American chairs were designed with hard seats and straight backs, and few had arms. No slouching allowed. People were expected to sit up straight.

Kovels Antiques: Santa's look has changed over the yearsSanta Claus hasn't always been a fat, jolly man with a beard and a red coat. He hasn't even always lived at the North Pole. The Santa of today often is called the "Coca-Cola Santa" because he was first drawn in the 1930s for a series of Coke ads.

Kovels Antiques: Tin toy market came from rise of middle classBecause the 19th-century industrial revolution resulted in new technology and the creation of a middle class, the invention of tin toys was possible and profitable.

Kovels Antiques: Antique censers come in variety of unique stylesA "censer" sometimes can be found at an antique shop, but the word can be confusing. It has nothing to do with a "censor," the person who decides what is acceptable to be published in books or shown on television. A vintage censer is an old container used for burning incense.

Kovels Antiques: Topsy-turvy, upside-down styles popular"Topsy-turvy" designs, sometimes called "upside-down" or "two-faced portraits," were a clever idea that found favor in the 1870s and later. Plates, cups, pitchers, advertising mirrors, advertising cards, vases, comic strips and even books could be made that way.

Kovels Antiques: Traditional dining tables have evolvedThe last half of the 19th century was a time of creative energy in the United States. Thousands of patents were granted for improvements to household goods, from eggbeaters and apple peelers to vacuum cleaners.

Kovels Antiques: Diversity reigns with collectible candy containersAll types of candy containers are popular collectibles – everything from tin boxes to papier-mache figures to figural glass containers.

Kovels Antiques: Well-adorned country-store items sell wellCountry-store collectibles still are selling well if they're large, colorful and have unusual graphics or wording. Huge signs made of paper, tin or enamel and giant floor-size coffee grinders are wanted by collectors and decorators.

Old cigar-store figures draw collector interestWooden Indians have been displayed at tobacco stores since the 19th century. Store signs at that time were often pictorial because many customers could not read.

Wain's feline designs became fierce over timeSurveys show that pictures of cats are more popular than pictures of dogs or horses. So it is not surprising that ceramic cats are popular with collectors.

Salt servers had a different shape in pastEating too much salt is a health problem today, but in past centuries, salt was considered an important ingredient to be treated with reverence. It was traditional to put a large container of salt near the head of the table, where the most important person sat. To be seated "above the salt" was a sign of a person's rank.

Special dishes made to hold sardines in canThe foods we favor have changed as technology has changed. A method of preserving food in glass containers was developed in the late 17th century. Canned food became available by 1813. Fresh salads were not a winter food until the early 1900s, when refrigerated train cars could carry lettuce from California to the East Coast.

Collectors seek tea sets made to fit togetherDesigners working after 1920 created very different looks for many common household objects. For centuries a teapot had a rounded body, a handle and a spout. Twentieth-century designers made modern teapots in angular or biomorphic shapes. Spouts were shorter or hidden and handles could be made of Bakelite or some other new material.

Pedestals from famous makers draw top dollarStatues and plants were important decorations in the large Victorian home. The designers of the day believed in filling all available space. Pedestals made of wood or ceramics were put in halls and in corners of living rooms and dining rooms. Live plants, especially ferns, were popular. Pedestals were often colorful and covered with decorations.

As of today its only been 29 days since my bypass surgery, and already I'm getting antsy to get back in the surf. I see that there has been some pretty good surfing, and more to come, so please catch some waves for me and I'll see you all as soon as I can. If anything I'll be on the beach at the Bo taking pics before the Doc's release me.
Desire to be back in the surf.....
I feel ya, man. You'll be out there soon enough. And with a better ticker! Just think. Longer sessions, quicker reactions. You'll be outsurfing your previous self.
I got a bum arm and the first 4 weeks were filled with mostly bitterness and pity. I got sick of that cause it wasn't doing me any good and decided to live vicariously through everyone else. It's working out okay, I suppose. I'm happy for everyone and growing as a person. But, I'm still bummed. So I've been taking some pics with my iphone, but lamely, cannot seem to post them from my Apple laptop with out them being sideways. If anyone has any tips that'd be great. I'm a kook when it comes to computers. See you in the water...sometime. Hopefully, soon for both of us.
friscohio- if you're importing to iphoto using an apple the rotate button should be at the bottom of the screen between "edit"and "flag." clicking on this should rotate the image 90 degrees per click. Also, clicking on edit gives you a ton of options, BUT go up to the "photos" tab (in iphoto again) and "duplicate" the photo in case you tweak it, so that you have a clean original to go back to. Hopefully that helps. The older iphone, if i recall correctly, prefers to take pictures in landscape from only one of two directons, can't remember which. Good luck.
I'm right there with you @Wave Glider, but for a different reason.
I work in politics and it's crunch time. 12 hours per day, 7 days per week during September and October. I am able to sneak in an hour session at dawn on Sundays, but mostly I am reading Stoke Report and watching web cams on Surfline - dreaming of getting back into the surf every day.
One more month to go bro!

AMD: Go to 'Barcelona' over 'Clovertown'January 23, 2007
Dented Dell picks up AMD chips amid SEC probeAugust 17, 2006
The new "special edition" models, the 2222 SE and 8222 SE, feature higher performance but consume up to 120 watts compared with 95 watts for conventional 2.8GHz Opterons and 68 watts for 2.6GHz high-efficiency models.
The 2222 SE, for dual-processor systems, costs $873 in quantities of 1,000, according to the Web site, and the 8222 SE, for systems with four or eight processors costs $2,149 for quantities of 1,000. For comparison, the 2.8GHz 2220 SE and 8220 SE cost $698 and $1,514 in that quantity.
AMD spokesman Phil Hughes confirmed that the company has begun shipping the new chips. The company will officially launch the products Monday, he said.
The Opteron chip family has won the Sunnyvale, Calif.-based company a place in the x86 server lines of all four of the top server companies--IBM, Hewlett-Packard, Sun Microsystems and Dell. Of those companies, Dell, Sun and HP use the Opteron SE models in their servers.
But Intel in 2006 fought back with the competitive dual-core Xeon 5100 and quad-core Xeon 5300, which squeezes two dual-core chips into a single package, and AMD's selling prices have plummeted as it fought to maintain market share.
The company is counting on its quad-core "Barcelona" chip, expected to hit the market in the second half of 2007, to restore some of its fortunes. But at that time, Intel also will release its quad-core Xeon 7300 "Tigerton" processor for four-processor servers, and its next-generation "Penryn" family is waiting in the wings.

- Too little too late.
- Only super-hardcore AMD fanbois will be interested in this gimmick part.
- Like Reply Link Flag
- not a high-speed fanboi
- The 2.8 Opteron is plenty fast for server use with negligible performance differences with the comparably priced Intel parts - but significantly lower system price and most importantly, system power dissipation.
AMD has a little time left to rev the Opteron to a more efficient design, Intel's heaters haven't KOed it yet.
- Like Link Flag
- fanboi? moi?
- amd's success has brought us the price and capability war that is going on right now. Amd is the reason there even are dual and quad core, or why intel switched to the amd style processor. Amd just makes the market a better place for consumers and they have in turn put out some very solid equipment over the years to rival a company that held 95% of the market. So before you go calling people fanbois just remember that without them your precious intel would still be releasing a chip that ran 1.4ghz and would make this story instead of amd.
plus i know you are trying to insult amd users so dont try to play like you're not you 1337 poster you.
