Early registration for the Children & Family Resource Center's Virtual Speak Out for Kids 2014 Conference will begin Monday, and online "booths" will be open for viewing as early as Saturday.
Throughout the month of February, the Children & Family Resource Center is asking Henderson County residents to log on to the virtual conference to become more aware about issues facing the community's children, offer feedback on how to address the issues, and connect with the people and agencies working to make the community a better place.
Sponsored by Pardee UNC Health Care and Pardee Foundation, this virtual conference is free to the public. The United Way of Henderson County will kicks off the session lineup at 4 p.m. Feb. 6 with a discussion on poverty and its effects on children.
Henderson County youth, nonprofits and agencies that deliver critical services to the children of Henderson County will share their perspectives on the challenges that exist in delivering five simple promises: Be a caring adult; provide safe places; provide a healthy start; deliver an effective education; and provide opportunities to serve.
Just like a normal conference, participants will be able to select a session that is meaningful to them or "visit" a booth to learn more about a nonprofit and ways to plug in and help the community. The big difference is that it is all conducted online.
"This virtual conference is a first for our community," said Elisha Freeman, executive director for the Children & Family Resource Center. "It's a way for us to reach people when it's convenient for them, particularly high school students or working adults who can't carve out five hours to participate in a community meeting."
The conference will be accessible on a laptop, mobile device or tablet.
The center hopes to have as many as 700 people participating over the course of the next two months, both online and in person. Once the sessions air at their scheduled times, they will all go to video on demand and remain on the site throughout March.
The scheduled sessions will have the capacity for live text chat with the presenters. Once they go to video-on-demand status, they will allow for questions or comments with email follow-up.
The big community wrapup for the campaign will occur from 8:15 a.m. to noon March 1 at the Conference Hall on the campus of Blue Ridge Community College.
Participants are encouraged to register Monday via the 5PromisesHC.org website. A full schedule will be available on Saturday. To find out more, or to host a viewing party of one of the conference session, visit 5PromisesHC.org.

Ricky's Redemption
Ricky Whitlock on returning to big wave surfing after breaking his back at Pipeline earlier in the year…
I was in Puerto for about a month and in that time there were two really big swells. The first one was big, and then as the swell was fading away I checked the charts and saw an even bigger swell coming. It was still a ways out so I figured that it would downgrade before it got to Puerto. But when the swell showed up it did not disappoint. It was HUGE! It was consistently 15 feet with a few 20 footers. It was definitely the biggest surf I've ever surfed. It was the best feeling in the world. Adrenaline going nuts, blood boiling, and heart pounding out of your chest kind of surfing. So when the wave comes and you're in the spot, you HAVE to go! Especially with Greg Long, Kohl Christensen, Gabriel Villaran and other big wave chargers yelling "Go"! (And just to add to all of that I bruised my ribs the day before getting pitched by one that I thought I was in) Those same guys that I mentioned were the guys getting the biggest and best waves. Will Dillon, who is from the States but now calls Puerto home, was also right there in the mix with them. Greg got one of the biggest waves I've ever seen down there, Gabrielle got one of the biggest barrels I've ever seen, and Kohl got one of the worst wipeouts I've ever seen in person. After seeing how hard those guys were charging I was just stoked to squeeze into a few waves.
I ended up getting caught inside by a big one and instantly it snapped my board and leash. As I came up after the last wave of the set, I looked around and everyone else was fine sitting on their boards. My first thought was to start swimming towards the harbor but right then Greg yelled "Hey Ricky, you have a pretty big gap if you want to swim in!" Right when he said that I knew he was testing me. And right away I thought, "Damn it! Here I go!" and without questioning or hesitating I started swimming in. As fast as I could but not as hard as I could so I wouldn't waste any energy in case I got caught inside. Sure enough, just as I was getting close to the beach, I started going backwards and sucked right back into the impact zone of the next set. Wave after wave, I got them on the head. Slammed to the bottom then spit right back out the back into the impact zone of the next one. It took all my focus not to let myself get frustrated and panic and lose energy. Finally the waves pushed me in far enough to where I could touch and I snuck in before the next set. I guess the lifeguards didn't think I was going to make it cause they got the skis out to save me after watching my beatings. After that I went back to the house and rested and then borrowed Jensen Hassett's board and went back out for the evening session and redeemed myself with a big right. At the end of the day a group of us went to dinner and the table was stacked. Greg Long, Danilo Couto, Kohl Christenson, Jamie Sterling and a few others. I still couldn't stop thinking about if Greg was testing me or not but then he proved me right by saying, "Good swim, I'm gonna have to sign you up for the 2016 Olympics." I didn't show it at the time but to have him say that made me feel honored.
Since I've been back in the water from my back injury all I've wanted to do is redeem myself and get barreled and surf big waves. Puerto couldn't have been a better call. Not only did I get all that but I never expected to get the waves I did. Ones I made and also the wipeouts which helped me even more than the ones I made because it got my injury jitters to go away. I've always liked surfing big waves but now after those swells and also having the backing from Fox to be able to travel and chase waves again, you can count on seeing me a lot more in big waves. I had an epiphany after my injury and after almost having everything taken away from me; this is what I want to do. The southern hemisphere is blowing up right now so it looks like I'll be heading back down to Puerto to try and better the waves I got the last couple swells.--Ricky Whitlock

The Okapi project's main purpose is to architect a set of building blocks for the creation of larger open source localization and translation tools. But many Okapi components are generic enough to be of interest to the text mining, natural language processing, and text retrieval communities. Okapi's many text filters (HTML, Properties, XML (ITS XPath-based rules), OpenXML, ODF, Regex etc.) provide a straightforward way to access the text of multiple document formats. Its document events and pipeline can be made to integrate with other frameworks such as UIMA, LingPipe, OpenPipeline, OpenNLP, GATE, and Lucene. The advantage of Okapi's text filters is that not only is text extracted, but all non-textual formatting is preserved. It is possible to decompose a document into events, process them via the pipeline, and then rebuild the input document without loss. Structural information can be added to Okapi document events so that tables, lists, links, titles etc. are grouped together and treated as a unit. This is useful when context based on a "universal" document structure is needed. The Okapi event model supports user configurable annotations, similar to UIMA, but simpler and more restricted in scope. User can annotate spans of text or add new resources such as translation memory matches, terminology, token types, or part of speech information.
ACOPOST is a set of freely available POS taggers modeled after well-known techniques. The programs are written in C (aiming for extreme portability and code correctness/safety) and run under various Unix flavors (and probably even under Windows). ACOPOST currently consists of four taggers that are based on different frameworks: Maximum Entropy Tagger (MET), Trigram Tagger (T3, based on Hidden Markov Models), Error-driven Transformation-based Tagger (TBT or Brill Tagger), and Example-based tagger (ET).
The Language Detection Library for Java is a Java library to detect the natural languages in which texts are written. This task is also known as "language identification", "language guessing", and "language recognition". It has over 99% precision for more than 40 languages. The supported languages are Afrikaans, Arabic, Bulgarian, Bengali, Czech, German, Greek, English, Spanish, Persian, Finnish, French, Gujarati, Hebrew, Hindi, Croatian, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Kannada, Korean, Macedonian, Malayalam, Marathi, Nepali, Dutch, Punjabi, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Somali, Albanian, Swedish, Swahili, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Tagalog, Turkish, Ukrainian, Urdu, Vietnamese, and Simplified/Traditional Chinese.
The AlchemyAPI Android SDK enables real-time semantic analysis of text, HTML, or Internet-hosted Web page content. The SDK provides mechanisms to extract Concepts, Named Entities, Keywords and Tags, Categories, and clean HTML into text, and even detects languages. It can analyze text in eight different languages: English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and Swedish. Example code and a demo application are included to help get you started.
Apache OpenNLP is a machine learning based toolkit for the processing of natural language text. It supports the most common NLP tasks, such as tokenization, sentence segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, named entity extraction, chunking, parsing, and coreference resolution. These tasks are usually required to build more advanced text processing services.
foma is a compiler, programming language, and C library for constructing finite-state automata and transducers for various uses. It has specific support for many natural language processing applications such as producing morphological analyzers. Although NLP applications are probably the main use of foma, it is sufficiently generic to use for a large number of purposes. It comes with an xfst-compatible interface and regular expression language. The library contains efficient implementations of all classical automata/transducer algorithms: determinization, minimization, epsilon-removal, composition, and boolean operations. More advanced construction methods are also available: context restriction, quotients, first-order regular logic, transducers from replacement rules, etc.
jWeb1T is an Java tool for efficiently searching n-gram data in the Web 1T 5-gram corpus format. It is based on a binary search algorithm that finds the n-grams and returns their frequency counts in logarithmic time. As the corpus is stored in many files, a simple index is used to retrieve the files containing the n-grams.

At the center of the campaign are billboards that include important safety tips, such as "Always expect a train," "Trains travel 41 feet in the blink of an eye. Look again" and "Some shortcuts cut your life short." The campaign also features Spanish-language billboards with the phrase "Cuidado con el tren," (Use caution around trains).
The messages will be displayed on billboards during the next six months in 12 cities, including: Houston, San Antonio, Ennis, Laredo, Lufkin, and Midland, Odessa, El Paso, Texas; and Plaquemine, La., Fresno, Calif., Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minn. and Chicago, Ill.
"The safety of our employees and the communities in which we live and work is our number one priority," said Lance Fritz, Union Pacific executive vice president of operations. "Engaging people with these billboards will support our broad public outreach and education activities as we strive to foster safe behaviors and safe communities."
The billboards will raise awareness that a train could be using the railroad tracks at any time and to always approach them with caution. Union Pacific encourages drivers and pedestrians to follow all laws regarding grade crossings and railroad safety.

Yesterday, her poll declared Florida #2, leapfrogging the University of Michigan, and sending the Gators to the championship game in Glendale, Arizona, to face Ohio State. But the MZone has learned Harris unilaterally certified her poll's results before anyone could question some of the irregular voting in the Harris Poll.
"I didn't need people asking stupid questions like who the fuck are the jokers in the Harris Poll and why do some ballots make no sense," said Harris when asked if she thought that was proper. "It's Florida and involves voting, so we'll do things how I damn well please."
Jokers indeed.
As first reported on Michigan Sports Center, some of the Harris Poll ballots left a lot of people scratching their heads such as these shown below:
Paul Zeise:
No. 1: Ohio State No. 2: Louisville No. 3: Florida No. 4: Michigan
Larry Keech:
No. 1: Ohio State No. 2: Boise State No. 3: Michigan No. 4: Wisconsin No. 5: Florida
Robert Lawless:
No. 1: Ohio State No. 2: Michigan No. 3: Wisconsin No. 4: Louisville No. 5: Florida
Ray Melick:
No. 1: Ohio State No. 2: Florida No. 3: Louisville No. 4: Michigan
Tim Neverett:
No. 1: Ohio State No. 2: Florida No. 3: USC No. 4: Michigan
Gene Ponti:
No. 1: Ohio State No. 2: Florida No. 3: LSU No. 4: Michigan
Jim Walden:
No. 1: FloridaNo. 2: Ohio StateNo. 3: Michigan
The individual ballot oddities came after Florida coach Urban Meyer had been on the campaign trail the last three weeks, begging for a spot in the title game. Sources told the MZone that Harris was - quote - "nearly moved to tears" when she heard Meyer's pleas that leaving the Gators out of the BCS championship would be the greatest injustice in recorded human history and could potentially add to global warming.
Asked if Meyer's intense lobbying and tearful appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show influenced her actions or those of poll voters, Harris said, "We're talking about the BCS. It's supposed to make no sense and reward politicking."
When told about the true nature of the Harris Poll, Michigan head coach Lloyd Carr was stoic saying, "Well, that sure would explain a whole hell of a lot. In fact, it makes more sense than any other reason I've heard so far."

The Sims 3 World Adventures allows players to guide their Sims to acclaimed fortune or even potential doom. Along your travels you will take your Sims to exotic destinations to hunt for hidden treasures. Uncover new skills, experience new personality traits and garner rewards, if your Sims succeed. Explore ancient tombs in the pyramids of Egypt, master martial arts in the Far East, and discover rich culture and famous landmarks of France. Adventure is on the horizon. What will your Sims discover?
Requires The Sims 3 to play.
Super Gamer Dude
PC Games
The Sims 3: World Adventures Expansion Pack for the PC brings the whole world right at the player's fingertips. With World Adventures, the player can create a character and live vicariously through them as they travel to foreign places like Egypt, China, or France. This expansion pack is similar to The Sims: Vacation, Bon Voyage, and Castaways, but deliver players a more interactive experience. This game differs from the previous expansion packs because it allows players to actually have adventures and go on little tasks or missions if the player chooses to and it does not involve your Sims just staying at a resort where they do the same things they can just do at home.
World Adventures has more updates than before. This expansion offers new clothing, objects, skills, and worlds, all of which enhance the player's game and are essential if a player would like to dress their Sim based on the world they are sending them to, if a player wants their house to resemble a world, or if a player simply wants to use an object that is normally set in the worlds like a tent. The Sims 3: World Adventures lets players use their old data if they want, and players from home can decide to send their Sims to a different part of the world. The current worlds that come with the World Adventures are China, France, and Egypt. Each new world offers a plethora of things for the player's Sims to do. For instance, in Egypt, players can send their Sims straight to the ruins to discover hidden treasure or they could have them read the board to find certain adventures that they can take from other Sims.
Once at the new world's base, players can choose to have their Sim do whatever they virtually want. Players do not have to strictly stay with doing adventures, though. Since there are various small towns and shops, players can complete little mini games or have their Sim buy souvenirs. Those that do want to participate in adventures are sure to keep entertained.
Adventures provide such features as manipulating other Sims in the area to get them to do what you want, go on treasure hunting missions, search ruins, exploring tombs, and finding rare items. The tomb offers mini games that include puzzles, secrets, and traps to keep the player busy. When going on adventures, Sims can take new objects with them for exploring like shower in a can or packages of food. None of these are meant to last for extreme periods of time and will most likely make your Sim go insane. The new skills include things like photography and martial arts, which give the player more things to do.
The Sims 3: World Adventures keeps the game mostly lighthearted and is designed to give players a new experience since they are, after all, in a new world. Players are sure to keep themselves entertained.

I was walking around in a desert near Albuquerque around noon in the middle of July. Not surprisingly, my mind wandered now and again to thoughts of cooler situations.
I was walking around in a desert near Albuquerque around noon in the middle of July. Not surprisingly, my mind wandered now and again to thoughts of cooler situations. An air-conditioned restaurant was one such thought. Another idea was the desert at night, which is usually pleasant and has an added advantage: It's when the animals come out.
Then I recalled an ecological study in an extreme habitat I once wrote about. Scientists described it as "one of the coldest and driest deserts on Earth" — definitely a far cry from a New Mexico desert in midsummer. The researchers were conducting studies in Antarctica in a region where freshwater lakes are covered year-round by sheets of ice.
One question being asked was whether any life would be found. Considering that living organisms have been discovered inside volcanoes, deep underground in the darkest caves and even in scorching hot deserts, perhaps it should come as no surprise that scientists found an "oasis for life in a polar desert."
During Antarctic summers, up to 40 percent of the ice melts in layers in ice packs that are up to 20 feet thick and sit above freshwater lakes. Melting occurs when sunlight warms thin layers of sediment lying within the ice. The sediment layers, up to a few inches thick, are presumably the result of windblown debris deposited when the layer was on the surface. Once deep inside the ice pack, the sediments heat up more than the surrounding ice during sunny periods and layers of water form within the ice. These layers and pockets of meltwater within the ice packs support an array of living organisms.
Researchers took ice samples, using four-inch-diameter cores. They removed and melted the ice cores to determine the depths at which sediments and their associated living organisms occurred. In one lake, the sediment layer was about halfway down an ice layer more than 12 feet thick. The layers of sediments embedded in the ice not only provide heat to melt ice, but also serve as a source of nutrients. The habitat, one of the most inhospitable environments imaginable, does not support large mammals, big fish or giant squids. It is, however, home to a variety of bacteria and algae. The researchers discovered that even in a thick ice pack, separate and identifiable ecosystems exist.
After finding that life existed in the ice layers and identifying the species present, the researchers were in for another surprise — the organisms living in the ice did not resemble those found in the permanent lake waters far below. Thus, although the deepest freshwater lakes in Antarctica are continually inhabited by an array of plankton and other microorganisms, the species living in the incredibly thick layer of ice above are different.
The bacteria and algae living in the ice thrive independently from the lake water below, with which they have no contact. In some manner, the organisms in the ice are able to live indefinitely in an environment that is frozen solid and in total darkness half the year. Yet when summer comes and the sediment layers warm up enough to create thin layers of water, life reappears.
Ironically, the discovery that life persists in such an extreme situation might be used by some people to justify any environmental modification or destruction in the name of progress. That is, no matter what we do to the earth, life will go on.
But the fact that life will exist in some form in any place with water, light and nutrients (as well as in a few places without light) is no excuse for intentionally creating hostile conditions for any plant or animal species. Life will indeed go on, but the disappearance of the obvious and exciting life forms around us may signal that we are on the verge of creating conditions unsuitable for human life, too. Surely none of us would look forward to our last living companions in the world being mostly bacteria and algae.

The shade I designed is called "Eiffel". Inspired, of course, by the Eiffel tower. It's the deep black shade on the far left with the multicolored sparkle. The sparkling lights that shine from the tower at night were my inspiration for creating this shade.
Palettes will be available while quantities last!
Also, don't miss this video below where I show the palette in detail (with swatches), and discuss all the details of our AMAZING trip to Paris and the palette development process. Be sure to stick around for the photos of our trip at the end!! ;)
l-r, Eiffel, Seine, Louvre, Orsay
cheek colors: l-r, Rouge, Peche
highlight (far right), Lumiere
Palette Description (From Sigma Beauty):
The Limited Edition Paris Makeup Palette includes eight eye shadow colors inspired by landmark monuments and locations in Paris. It also includes two blush colors and one highlight shade, carefully developed to complement all skin tones. The palette comes with two essential brushes for a flawless makeup application.
Brushes Included:
E55 - Eye Shading
F40 - Large Angled Contour
I hope you all can get your hands on one of these while they last! I'll definitely be using it for upcoming tutorials!

If you haven't heard it, here's the audio (HT: Deadspin).
Now, having not grown up in Louisiana, I have to admit that I'm not familiar with the phrase that Saban used to describe a Cajun. But I have to say, it sounds really bad (and has its own Wikipedia entry as also pointed out by Deadspin).
Classy stuff, Nick.
Also, after this, I can't imagine Saban will have much success trying to recruit the next Bobby Hebert or Jake Delhomme. Or this product of the Bayou...
P.S. You have to think Mike Price is saying to himself today, "What the fuck?! I score with some hot strippers and get fired by Alabama; Saban starts tossing around ethnic slurs and he's the highest paid coach in the land. Ain't that some shit."

A comment on reddit by id Software co-founder John Carmack (thanks Develop) follows the theme of a recent post by former id programmer Timothee Besset indicating that id's once-strong support for Linux gaming has waned. The post basically confirms and explains that premise, discussing how he sees a plausible path for Linux gaming via emulation on Steam, if "properly evangalized," but expressing skepticism about commercial native Linux ports:

From 2003 to 2009, Pew worked with partners at the local, state and national level to ensure more of these children were living with safe, permanent families.
More than 500,000 children are living in foster care in the United States. Although an important safety net for abused and neglected children, foster care was never intended to be a long-term solution. All children need safe, permanent families in which to grow and thrive.
From 2003 to 2009, Pew worked with partners at the local, state and national level to ensure more of these children were living with safe, permanent families. In 2004, the Pew Commission on Children in Foster Care issued recommendations to reform the way the federal government supports children who are abused or neglected and encourage increased judicial accountability through better case tracking systems.
In 2007, the Kids Are Waiting: Fix Foster Care Now campaign began advocacy efforts to promote federal financing reform. Working with national, state and community-based child welfare, adoption, judicial, and other organizations, the initiative argued for aligning federal financing with services and supports that produce better outcomes for children.
Substantial progress has been made. With the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, Congress invested $100 million over five years for courts to track cases, provide training and increase collaboration with child welfare agencies. Improvements are underway in all 50 states. And, in October 2008, the Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act was passed unanimously by Congress and signed into law by President Bush. The most significant child welfare legislation in ten years, the law includes many of the Pew Commission recommendations. Pew concluded its foster care initiative in 2009.

Time for Reform: Hoping for a Home for the Holidays
Each year, more than 500,000 children spend the holidays in foster care In some cases the holidays may be spent with extended family, but more often it is spent with foster families to whom children are not related, or in group homes or institutional settings Although foster care is an important safety net for children who have suffered abuse or neglect, being in foster care is not always easy...

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!
PS I looked for a Michigan-themed Christmas vid on YouTube for this post and couldn't find squat. So for shits and giggles, I tried a Tosu search. And, well, let's just say Buckeye fans are a different breed...

First the Bitch does not know Troy Smith's jersey number. Every Blue fan knows it was #10, Bitch!!!!!
Then her "companion" hurts herself or is it her. Then Ethel is screaming for their poodles. Wow I am glad you did not find any Michigan stuff on YOUTUBE. The RichRod ERA begins now!!!

Taking the video is one thing. (I shoot some for shits and giggles on occasion), but to then post it on You Tube takes on a whole new meaning of stupid.
However the christmas lights to music, I would love to see that to the victors!
Merry Christmas to each of you here on the Mzone. Friend and foe and everyone in between! GO BLUE!

This is boring. HA! I even tried to start a conversation at MGoBlog last night. (ignored) Football season, come back!!!! :o) At least my sons play Madden, so we had a good conversation about the 3-3-5 Stack (which they don't use in Madden, they prefer the Nickel) They do however use the cover 2 and they knew what the Tampa 2 was! I should have asked for Madden for Christmas, maybe then I could entertain myself! :o)

"They could have left Charlie Weis out of the show, why ruin it with his opinion?"
with the exception of having Giselle come give me a foot massage and feed me grapes while i watched the interview, the inclusion of Charlie was the best thing that could've happened. When he left there was all of this "Oh no, how will Tom do without Weiss in the background" speculation, and how we'd see Peyton prove he was truly head and shoulder's above our future president.
Instead, we see Weiss give rise to "Three and Out Jesus", and Tom is on the verge of an undefeated season and breaking Peyton's single season TD mark. Man I love revilling in the misery and accomplishments of others which i had no direct part in creating. It's truly what gives my life meaning. :0
- December 24, 2007 1:42 PM
- Katie said...
Excellent point Joshua! Merry Christmas!
I am having withdrawals........the guys at MgoBlog told me to go back to the kitchen and make sandwiches...LMAO! I did get a little conversation out of them though. I get to go spend the evening with my brother who is a huge Michigan fan, so I am sure I will get a good dose tonight!

That video gave "disturbing" a whole new meaning to me. What the hell was that? Is this part of the mainstream culture that passed me by?
Who is the cartoon figure? Is the dude someone famous I should recognize. And the song...? Has it replaced 99 bottles of beer on the wall and no one told me?
I'm so confused.
- December 24, 2007 10:41 PM

ROFL, Sorry, I am so bored! I have no clue, but as my son and I were perusing You Tube, I was mildly entertained, however disturbed might be a fair way to describe that. :P

Are you serious about the Mgoblog boys dissing you?
- December 24, 2007 10:59 PM

The guy that posts as anonymous said, Katie, Katie, Katie, go back to the kitchen and make us some sandwiches....LOL! But the other guys were friendly enough, I am sure that they didn't take me too seriously, so it is easier to ignore the chick who sounds like she might not have a clue. And after that You tube post I just made, I wouldn't blame anyone for not taking me seriously....ROFL!

You never know who "anonymous" is over there. Half the time they're hi-jacking each other's nickname.
During the coaching search someone should have thrown a hugh net over that site.
- December 24, 2007 11:12 PM
- Katie said...
Oh my , during the coach's search, it was downright scary! I tried to avoid it. I would go over to see if I could glean a bit of info, but it was so insane I couldn't stay! It seemed that there were a number of students over there at the time. Normally, the comments over there is strictly football and they are serious about it! Not during the Coach's search!!

Well it is a damn good thing I don't run this blog, my taste in entertainment sucks! LOL!!
Where are all the peeps? I had to subject my family to football talk, which ended up with me betting my brother that Michigan would beat Florida, my mother was not pleased at the wager (relatively large...LOL) but hey, I am a poor grad student!! This of course means Michigan must now win!!! GO BLUE!!! (and please God, let Hart and Henne be healthy!)
- December 25, 2007 4:10 PM
- whetstonebuck said...
Your family doesn't stand much of a chance with you. It's either hospital/nursing stories or Michigan football. Don't both of those subjects end in hospice?
I hope you win your bet. You must have been imbibing a little too much.
Off to the big city.
- December 25, 2007 5:19 PM
- Katie said...
Unfortunately I can not blame the bet on booze. As for the subject matter of Michigan ending up as hospice, I should expect as much from a tOSU lover!! I have a feeling that there is good chance our guys will come home with the victory. Thus the bet. My family would agree with you. I am boring. :o)
- December 25, 2007 5:39 PM

If you come home with a victory just think of the story line; not to mention the cashola.

Cashola? is that some kind of greek pastry? Or is it a nut?
- December 26, 2007 8:49 AM

No, no.
"Cashola" is a spanglish term used at the U.S./Mexico border.

It is an egregious continental faux pas to pay or play with one's cannolies in Hispanic territories: a lack of machismo if ever there was one.
Sheesh, you're an International incident waiting to happen.

What in the fuck is wrong with people? Seriously, what the fuck can be going thru one's head doing something like that with the Christmas tree and then singing a grievously ridiculous song like that? I'd always thought I was a diehard UM fan. My wife has cussed me out on many occasions for screaming at the TV and generally going ballistic during yet another one of UM's meltdowns. If that's what true diehard fans do then I'll proudly proclaim that I am not a diehard.
Nice call on Troy's number, too. Gaah!

On todays episode of "Get to Know Your Fellow Commentors Better: "What's all this tripe concerning Menudo?"
Well, Whets, i'm glad you asked. Little known fact about me: I was the first non-latino member of Menudo. Yup, it's true. You can look it up, it's part of my fake autobiography, so it has to be true.
Quick synopsis:
I left the band over creative differences at age 15, and I'm truly shocked you missed the E! True Hollywood Story about it.
For awhile after I hung out with young hollywood and these two guys Brian and Tom, right up until they changed their first names to be like me (I used to go by Corey)and I got bored with them. Fuckin' Haim and Feldmen, they got what they deserved after writing me out of "License to Drive." All because Heather Graham wanted me. Bastards.
Until recently I was the frontman for a ska/punk influenced Debbie Gibson cover band with Fred Claus ( and not that stupid Disney p.o.s., but the original. He's Santa's alcoholic brother and he manages the Speedway down the street.) Anyway, the guy plays a mean bass. The band broke up after we had a dispute about the name. I preferred "Banana Hammock Afro" while Fred championed "The Fisting Midgets". Such a shame- we were gonna be HUGE!
Anyway, I still get royalties from the Menudo stuff, so be sure to run right out and buy a cd- if i find you pirating that shit off Limewire I'm gonna send the Coreys after your ass. And they'll do it to man, they'll do it.
So there you go, now you know what all the tripe about Menudo was.
Ps. Little known fact about former Menudo memeber Ricky Martin: He's not gay, he just likes the way it tastes.

- Katie said...
Who is Menudo? :P
On a different note:
Did you know that it is worth the extra $4 a month to have roadside service on your automobile insurance policy? Who'd a thunk? I am such a cheapskate, and I paid the price, TWICE in the last week! Meh.
- December 26, 2007 4:54 PM
- Joshua said...
Oh yeah, I almost forgot- I dated Whitney Houston for awhile, too but I broke her heart. Yeah, remember when she used to be hot? My bad. How was I supposed to know she'd go ruunning to Bobby brown and start smoking crack?
Don't forget kids- Crack is Wack!
- December 26, 2007 4:59 PM
- Joshua said...
Katie, $4.10 every six months. about 2 cents a day. shit, I carry it just so i don't have to change a flat when it's cold. Call a tow truck and let them do it!
and who's Menudo? seriously? all that and I get who's Menudo? BAH!
- December 26, 2007 5:02 PM
- Katie said...
Yeah, well, guess who got to change a tire (twice!) in this butt ass cold weather? Yeah. Me. You can add it to my quote, because I will be getting it!
And, if I admit to knowing who Menudo is, doesn't that date me? :P

For the culturally devoid, Menudo is a band of some type.

Menudo is specially prepared stomach of the bovine. It was also a Latin pop group that had a Vienna Boys' Choir strategem of dropping singers as soon as--well, as soon as their testicles dropped. Ricky Martin is probably the most notable former member.
The epicurean culinary delight preceeded the group--perhaps, by centuries.
Purportedly, it cures hangovers and has an aphrodisical quality.
Mexicans regard it as a delicacy and reserve a special night for its preparation and consumption.
I don't know about the hangovers, but my personal theory on most homespun aphrodisiacs is that they are "the placebo effect." In other words, if I could hypnotize you and make you believe a gelatin pill was an aphrodisiac--after I gave you one, you would get a chubb. Oh, well--maybe it really cures hangovers, and once you kill the cow you had just as soon eat the whole thing.

Go Big Ten! I did my undergraduate at Western Michigan, and CMU was a huge rival, so it makes it even easier to root for Purdue. Of course, the chances of Purdue losing this game are slim to none, wait, I thought that about the AppState game too! HA!

This is an interesting article on the coach's searches that have taken place. Nice to see that ESPN gave us a passing grade and calls R2 an "A" hire, with an overall grade of "B". The fact that we were given a "C" for the process is ironic since ESPN played a hand in that debacle!

Moo U. set the standard for losing to mid majors by dropping two in a row to CMU back in the day.
Looked like PU started celebrating too early... so even though they won, who wasn't rooting for CMU's QB to match Tebow's feat this season?

93, I have to admit, he did capture my vote. Also interesting that CMU's coach has a second interview with WVU this week.

If WVU feels used and abused from losing coaches, they need to take a look at CMU and see the turnover there... and CMU just keeps winning; WOW!

text: typhon is a slim and themeable OpenGL-based frontend, dashboard, and program launcher. It's meant to be easily used on Linux HTPCs, but also works on standard desktops or as netbook launcher. It has picture support for background, icons, stencils, and preview pictures. There's also an optional auto-screenshot mode that creates a preview picture of the launched app after a user-configured time. It also has a built-in OpenGL ffmpeg video player, which can be used to video preview programs and emulators/ROMs or simply to watch some movies. The video and everything else can be rotated into any direction and the position can be saved. Everything can be configured by the user, including colors, whole color themes, font, font size (any TTF font will do), optional sound effects, optional 3d icons (using glut), and background and preview pictures. Already installed screensavers can also be used as backgrounds using compositing and transparency.
