I'll be your host today as the Knicks take on the Dallas Mavericks. I'm sure you all know the New York Knicks are off to a great start, but the Mavs, not so much. They are 2-7 and struggling. Do we see some potential? I'm going to start you off with my
Official JPZ17 Game Prediction
For the rest of this thread my job is to convince you of that outcome and inform you of key moments in this game. All game discussion for the Knicks vs. Mavs must go in this Official thread.Dallas Mavericks 107
New York Knicks 109 F
Dallas (2-7) can point to a lackluster defense that has allowed opponents to reach the 100-point mark in four of its last five games as a reason for its poor start.
Giving up 99.4 points per game, the Mavericks rank in the bottom third of the league in that category. That's in contrast with the last three seasons when they finished among the league's top seven teams in points allowed.
The New York Knicks are scoring 104 ppg, while their opponents are scoring 103ppg. The Mavs are scoring 95 ppg while opponents score 99 ppg. In the last 5 games the Knicks are averaging 110 ppg. They are nearly unbeatable. The Knicks will need to stop Dirk in order to win this. He is averaging 22 ppg. If they can keep him under 30 points, they didn't fail at that. Instead, their main focus should be on stopping Josh Howard who is averaging 18 ppg and Jason Terry who is averaging 17 ppg. But in my guess is Kidd will have a surprising night so watch out!! Heres Kiyaman's take on this game:
Thanks, Kiya!A very interesting game Knicks vs Mavs
We can not forget our last game with the Thunders where we ran out of GAS, Energy, or legs, whatever. When we let a Knicks 30 point lead dwindle down to a 7 point lead....also giving them 3 tries to bring it down to 5.
The Mavs loss to the Lakers inside scoring game (Bynum, Gallo, Odom, and Ariza taking to the paint) inwhich the Mavs had the lead the majority of the game. Our scoring in the paint area has been real low.
Size-ing up the players:
Dampier & Diop will make Zach shoot 85% of his shots from outside.
Dirk will keep Lee & Chandler outside from getting any defensive rebounds.
Howard has owned Q.Richardson in every game they played in their career.
Terry will only give Crawful open 25 feet jumpshots anything else is a battle or trade of points. Terry will give Crawful some open closer shots when the Mavs is up by 10 or more.
Kidd vs Duhon will let owner Cuban know if he made the big mistake in the trade for an old demanding Kidd for a young energetic Harris.
The Knicks Bench has the complete energy Winning-Players on it with "Nasty-Nate, Chandler, and Dave Debuscher Lee.
Mavs on the other hand their bench has been weak with Diop and coach Carlisle enemy Stachouse who have not forgot that Carlisle had him traded when he practically lead the league in scoring for two straight seasons under Carlisle.
Very interesting game to watch
Lets look at the starting line-ups and match ups
New York Knicks Position Dallas Mavs
Zach Randolph C Erick Dampier
Interesting matchup.. I would expect Randolph to dominate.. Score 20 points and have 10+ boards. Dampier still needs to set a nae for himself
Wilson Chandler PF Dirk Nowitzki
Dirk>>>>>Chandler Face it guys, we are doomed here. I don't care what you think, now way Wilson could stop Dirk. Dirk had a slightly below average for him night last game with 6 boards.. (& 24 points)
Lets keep our fingers cross on that one
*Quentin Richardson SF Josh Howard *
Key matchup
Q-Rich had had a bad last few games with 5, 8, 3, 3, and 6 points in his last 5 games. Thats 25 points in his last 5 games, while Josh Howard had 25 points in JUST HIS LAST GAME!!!! It's about time for Q to step it up. Howard has been on fire recently. Get Q the ball and let him play like he did 5 years ago. Every once and a while we see the "Good Richardson," will we see the "Good Richardson" or the "Bad Richardson????"
Jamal Crawford SG Gerald Green
Are you kidding?? This matchup is a joke. Green has 8.5 ppg this season.. He only starts. The real player that comes in later is Jason Terry. Terry averaging 17ppg and 4 apg. Wow, great matchup! It would have been the JPZ17 matchup of the day, but he isn't starting. When the Knicks backup sg gets in we could get rocked, but then again, Crawford>>Green.
Chris Duhon PG Jason Kidd
This will be the first game Jason Kidd goes to The Garden in a Mavs uniform. Kidd should be pumped up for this. He loves facing the Knicks, and in MSG!?!?! I'm expecting 20+ points from Kidd. Kidd has 11 ppg this year with 8 apg. In his last game he had 13 points and 6 assists. Anyone remember this??
JPZ17's Player Pressure
Which Knicks is under the most pressure to succeed????
The answer:Quentin Richardson
Q needs to step up before it's too late! Look for him to have a good night! Scoring 25 points in his last 5 game is not acceptable.
Opponent last game:

	 1	 2	 3	 4	 T

  ORL (6-3) 	 17	 29	 26	 30	 102

  DAL (2-7) 	 21	 35	 24	 20	 100

  Howard 25 points
Dirk 24 points
Terry 20 points
Kidd 13 points
Lewis, Pietrus, and Nelson all above 20 points for Magic
Dallas is coming off a tough loss..

text: John's World: Your Other Transition Plan March 8, 2013 08:22 PM The ag media has made a modest industry out of succession planning. Not without good reason however—research shows farmers will spend $1.27 to avoid a dollar in taxes. In the meantime, a more preventable tragedy of non-planning looms: the failure of too many farmers (almost exclusively the male members of our profession) to formulate a working business model for being a grandparent. These hapless victims will awkwardly juggle a newborn in total surprise, despite the atmosphere of estrogen hysteria during the preceding months. Simultaneously, they will discover new expectations for their own conduct, just after their years of struggle to lower that bar. Even those who could see this coming, (we know where babies come from—it's in Wikipedia) found we had no spreadsheet for our new role! Then wham! We were grandpas, with all the rights and responsibilities pertaining thereunto. Rehearse your stories, especially the "really true" ones Honestly, I thought it wasn't going to be that hard. But like others, I was late detailing my strategy. Remember that deadline can be closer than you think—as discovered by some of my friends whose children married families, not just individuals. Don't count on an eight-month heads-up for this crucial decision. Grandpa-style. While there is considerable latitude to develop a unique Grandpa style, virtually everything has been done before. So when your lap is suddenly filled with a squirmy interrogator, many of us panic and fall back on hazy memories, dooming us to recreate a sad parody of our progenitors. Not only do we forfeit a rare chance to exert some individuality, but can inadvertently blot out a lifetime of determined effort not to end up like our fathers. My advice is to begin observing grandparents about a decade older than you for examples. One warning signal might be when your oldest goes to college. After all, the usual six years needed for a four-year degree can flash by. Start by familiarizing yourself with some standard Grandpa Styles, such as: Wise Patriarch: Uses a flexible memory to recall life as better back in the day. Remembers himself as way better. Gruff Curmudgeon: Speaks in monosyllabic conversations, punctuated by cynical pronouncements. Avoids many family duties by being tiresome, however. Dedicated Enthusiast: You're only as young as you pretend. Genial Buffoon: Embraces all situations with humor. The same humor—over and over. Oddly this is not a problem for most grandchildren to grasp. These are not so much unique business models as much as a progressive adaptation to the willpower of the small people who will reprogram your personality code. A special warning must be given to those fathers who missed the opportunity to have daughters: Science has found no antidote to the granddaughter, and few have any natural immunity. Do not be troubled by a growing habit of throwing Grandma under these little pink buses—"It's fine with me, honey, but ask Grandma." Sooner or later we all end up there. Practice make perfect. Now is also the time to master the arts of grandparent craft. Practice buckling your dog into a car seat. In fact, prepare for an elaborate new regimen of child safety. Follow it scrupulously and keep your opinions to yourself, pointing out the absurdities only when you and Grandma are alone. Memorize the cartoon channels on your TV and master Netflix. I recommend "Shaun the Sheep." Perform safety drills with cabinet locks, stairway gates and doorknob protectors—they are trickier than you might think. Master the art of sliding your bare feet a few millimeters above the carpet to avoid stepping on Legos full-weight. Get used to cheese pizza. Wear flannel shirts year-round—they are way more absorbent. And get your own sippy cup—toddlers don't know whose is whose. Rehearse your stories, especially the "really true" ones. Children have remarkable memories for fantasy and expect consistent fibbing. Memorize a few bedtime stories—they'll conk out faster in dim light. When the stork flies by your house on the way to your son/daughter, you'll be prepared to provide invaluable backup to the real backup (Grandma). And, if you are lucky, you might be awarded the highest of all honors: a nickname. Children around here call me "Silly Ol' Grandpa."

When working or hanging out in cafés, my usual drink of choice is either a frothy cappuccino or a nice boba tea. Lately I've found a new addiction: rose milk tea. A pot of the creamy, fragrant, and intoxicating tea with floating dried roses is the perfect companion for an afternoon of writing (or blogging.). And in Haidian, the university district, rose milk tea is as ubiquitous as free wifi.
Rose milk tea is pretty simple to make. Some cafés use loose tea that comes with dried roses, while others just steep a bag of black tea in water and milk and add the roses after. Just like chrysanthemum tea, you drink the tea with flowers floating in it. I use at least one and a half packs of sugar per pot, just because sugar seems to bring out the taste.
I'm usually fond of the rich taste of Hong Kong milk teas, which use condensed milk. But here in Beijing cafés tend to use regular milk, which I don't mind when it comes to rose milk tea. Regular milk is lighter-tasting than condensed milk and doesn't overwhelm the floral fragrance.Read More

A 14-year-old passenger has died from the injuries she sustained in a traffic accident Sunday evening in Welcome.
A 14-year-old passenger has died from the injuries she sustained in a traffic accident Sunday evening in Welcome.
Katlin Dawn Combs of Allen Drive was pronounced dead upon arrival at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, said Pam Kearns, a spokeswoman with the N.C. Highway Patrol.
The head-on collision occurred at 7:01 p.m. on Welcome-Bethesda Road near Hinkle Lane, according to the Highway Patrol.
Phillip Robert Eisenman IV, 22, of Grove Park Lane, was making a left turn onto Welcome-Bethesda Road. Troopers, Kearns said, believe Eisenman, while driving a 2010 Chevrolet passenger vehicle, failed to stop at the stop sign, cut the corner and struck a 1999 Dodge passenger vehicle head-on.
The Dodge, driven by Mark Allen Vestal, 38, of Hoover Road, was traveling on Welcome-Bethesda Road. Vestal had two passengers in his vehicle, his son, Brandon Wayne Vestal, age and address unavailable, and Katlin.
All occupants, according to the Highway Patrol, were not wearing seat belts.
The four were transported to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem. Eisenman was in serious condition. Mark Vestal was in fair condition, and there was no information available for Brandon Vestal, a hospital spokeswoman said Monday.
Eisenman has been charged with driving while impaired, and additional charges are pending. Charges are pending against Mark Vestal because no passengers were restrained, Kearns said.
The spokeswoman said the Highway Patrol is working with the Davidson County District Attorney's Office regarding the case, which is standard procedure in any accident involving a fatality.
Kearns said Katlin was a student at North Davidson Middle School and identified her as a family friend of the Vestals.
Katlin, along with her stepfather, Dustin, mother Vickie Litteral, 12-year-old sister Mary and 5-month-old brother Aydan lived at the Allen Drive residence of Glenn Martin. Martin has known Katlin for two years.
"She was a great girl, a fantastic girl," he said. "She excelled in school."
Katlin was on her way home Sunday evening after visiting a friend in Welcome when tragedy struck, Martin said.
"I am upset. She was a young girl."
NDMS Principal Angie Kiger released this statement Monday afternoon.
"We are deeply saddened by the loss of Katlin Combs, eighth-grade student at North Davidson Middle School who was involved in a car accident," the statement read. "Our focus is in supporting the family and the students and staff at North Davidson Middle School. Guidance counselors, social workers and support staff are on campus (Monday) morning to provide counseling and support for the staff and students.
"We are asking our school community for their thoughts and prayers for Katlin's family and for our family of students and staff at North Davidson Middle School."
Vickie Litteral said Katlin was the daughter of Jason Bates. She said Katlin was visiting Mark Vestal's 16-year-old daughter Sunday, and her daughter had just called her at 6:49 p.m. to let her know she was five minutes from home.
"She was a wonderful little girl," the mother said. "She was very smart, had a lot of friends, and she was loved by everybody."
The mother said she remains in shock concerning her daughter's death. She said her daughter had dreams of being a veterinarian and was studying real hard to keep her grades up.
"We have a lot of support from the school, and the school teachers have been calling here," Vickie Litteral said.
Dustin Litteral was trying to come to terms Monday afternoon with his family's loss.
"Even though she wasn't mine, she was special to me," he said. "She meant a lot to me. She was like my baby boy that I just had. She was very special to me."
Mitzi Taylor, who was with Katlin's family Monday, said her 14-year-old daughter had been friends with Katlin for about three years. She recalled Combs calling her "mama Mitzi."
"Katlin was very spunky, very spunky, didn't meet a stranger," she said. "She was a teenager … very outspoken. She was true to herself."
The Midway and Welcome volunteer fire departments, as well as Davidson County Emergency Medical Services, responded to the accident.

CHAST Templeton Lecture - The Foundations of Quantum Mechanics
7 November 2012
Quantum mechanics is so startlingly different from the rules that govern matter at larger scales, that even Albert Einstein criticised quantum theory as improbable and 'spooky'. Turns out Einstein was wrong, as quantum systems are opening up a whole new world of quantum computing, quantum communication and quantum teleportation.
Find out how our world will be revolutionised by quantum systems, when Professor Anton Zeilinger, from the University of Vienna and the Austrian Academy of Sciences, presents his free public talk 'The Foundations of Quantum Mechanics: From Einstein's Critique to Quantum Communication and Quantum Computation' on 8 November.
Presented by the University of Sydney's Centre for Human Aspects of Science and Technology (CHAST), the talk is this year's Templeton Lecture - a lecture series run annually for the past 21 years.
Professor Zeilinger will reveal the quirky quantum world and quench your quantum queries, as he combats Einstein's criticisms of quantum theory and explores quantum experiments from the earliest investigations through to the latest research.
"In his criticism of quantum mechanics, Albert Einstein focused on the physics of individual quantum systems. For example, he criticised the inherent randomness of individual events saying "God does not play dice" and called quantum entanglement of particle pairs "spooky"," said Professor Zeilinger.
"Einstein specifically stressed the difficulties of defining an observation-independent reality. But in his criticism, he turned out to be incorrect."
Find out how early quantum experiments in the 1970s were in line with quantum theory devised from much earlier gedanken experiments (or thought experiments) and how these findings led to a plethora of new phenomena.
These experiments opened up the new field of quantum computation and quantum communication. Quantum computing as a concept was first introduced by Richard Feynman in 1982, when he proposed a form of computation that uses quantum properties to represent data and perform operations on these data.
"I'll discuss the most recent quantum experiments, with some good examples of how those fundamental points which Einstein criticised have become cornerstones of quantum communication, quantum teleportation and quantum computation."
Professor Zeilinger is one of the world's leading experts in quantum systems, best known for his work on the foundations of quantum mechanics and their applications in quantum information technology, such as quantum computation and cryptography.
"One of the most interesting results in quantum computation is blind quantum computation, which enables absolute security in a future quantum internet," said Professor Zeilinger.
As Director of the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information for the Austrian Academy of Sciences and Professor of Experimental Physics at the University of Vienna, Professor Zeilinger is well placed to review the status of the fundamental quantum questions today and reveal where the quantum world will take us in the future.
Professor Zeilinger has been a pioneer in the areas of entanglement and more recently quantum interference for macroscopic molecules. His work on the teleportation of quantum information over increasingly large distances has been widely covered in the mainstream press. In 2005, The New Statesman named Professor Zeilinger - along with Barack Obama - as one of the ten people who could change the world.
He has been the recipient of numerous awards including the 2010 Wolf Prize in Physics, the inaugural Isaac Newton Medal from the UK's Institute of Physics in 2008 and the King Faisal Prize in 2005.
The University of Sydney's Centre for Human Aspects of Science and Technology was created to recognise the need to promote interdisciplinary integration of scientific knowledge and its impact on humans, our societies and the wider environment.

Many people like the smell of burning leaves. Many others, however, find the smoke from piles of burning leaves to be offensive.
In fact, that smoke causes a serious risk for people who have lung diseases or any other type of breathing problem.
The city recently received a number of complaints about the burning of leaves, with the majority of those coming from a large haze created from burning in Vandalia's parks on the day of a high school football game.
City officials have again agreed to revisit the leaf-burning issue, and have contacted officials in other communities to see how their towns handle leaf disposal.

Story highlights
- Only one sperm is needed to fertilize an egg
- Menstrual cycles show considerable variation both in length
- During birth, the human baby rotates in a complex manner
(CNN)The evolutionary background of human reproduction can shed much-needed light on some of life's most intimate mysteries.
In my book, I trace our reproductive lifeline back to its earliest roots, revealing the hard science -- and the primate origins -- behind sex cells, mating behavior, gestation and the way we care for our young.
My main aim is to deal with issues that are of practical importance in everyday life. In that light, here are some of the questions that I tackle.
1. Why are a man's testes located outside the body?
In most mammals, including all primates, the testes descend from their initial position next to the kidneys into a pouch-like scrotum outside the body cavity.
Descent of the testes has been explained in various ways.
The most widely accepted explanation is that descent of testes is connected with the raised body temperature that is typical of mammals. It has often been baldly stated that sperm production cannot take place at body temperature. We know, for instance, that infertility results if a man's testes remain in the body cavity. Yet sperm production clearly can take place inside the body, because some mammals -- such as dolphins, rhinoceroses and elephants -- produce sperm with testes that do not descend.
Instead, it seems that a lower temperature is better for sperm storage. Mammals with undescended testes have various special adaptations to store sperm at sites where the temperature is lower.
2. How many sperm are needed to ensure fertilization?
The short answer is that only one sperm is needed to fertilize an egg. Indeed, it is disastrous if an egg is fertilized by more than one sperm as only one set of paternal chromosomes should be provided.
There are special mechanisms to prevent more than one sperm from fertilizing an egg. Yet the average human ejaculate contains a quarter of a billion (250 million) sperm.
Why so many? Several surveys have shown that men who have ejaculates containing fewer than 60 million sperm tend to have fertility problems. Moreover, fertility improves as sperm counts increase from 60 million to about 200 million sperm. But any further increase seems to have no effect on fertility.
We do know that the large number of sperm initially ejaculated is whittled down and that only a few hundred end up close to the egg. Part of that reduction in numbers clearly serves to remove unsuitable sperm. For instance, deformed sperm are filtered out by the mucus in the neck of the womb (cervix), and it seems likely that further filtering occurs in the oviduct (a tube allowing for the passage of eggs from an ovary). So large numbers of sperm are presumably needed to ensure that one high-quality sperm reaches the target.
3. Is it true that human sperm counts are declining?
Since 1974, various surveys have indicated that human sperm counts have been reduced by about half in several industrialized populations over the past 60 years or so.
But that conclusion has been challenged for various reasons, notably because some studies found no evidence for a decline in sperm counts. It has turned out that this is because there are marked differences in occurrence and timing between regions. It was also suggested that reductions in sperm numbers were an artifact arising from changes in counting methods.
However, the same methods have been used to assess sperm counts in farm animals such as cattle, sheep and pigs, and no decline in numbers has occurred. Human sperm counts have not yet declined to levels where fertility is severely threatened, and decreases may be leveling off.
More worryingly at this point, declining sperm counts are accompanied by a marked rise in abnormalities of the male reproductive system -- undescended testes and abnormal development of the penis -- in tandem with higher rates of testicular and prostate cancer. The evidence suggests an environmental effect of some kind that is only affecting humans. Several factors have been implicated, but prominent candidates are environmental toxins that mimic the action of steroid hormones.
4. Is there a distinct fertile window in a woman's cycle?
The "egg-timer" model of the human menstrual cycle, with ovulation and conception regularly occurring close to midcycle, has formed the basis for medical thinking and intervention since the 1930s. This model needs radical revision.
The notion of regular midcycle ovulation is itself just a statistical abstraction. Menstrual cycles show considerable variation both in length, routinely ranging between three and five weeks, and in timing of ovulation relative to menstruation.
More important, however, several lines of evidence lead to the revolutionary conclusion that sperm are stored in the human womb, probably in crypts in the cervix. This means that intercourse leading to conception can occur up to 10 days or more before ovulation takes place.
This raises major problems for the "rhythm method" of contraception, which relies on the accepted wisdom that sperm and eggs have strictly limited maximum life-spans, surviving for only two days and one day, respectively. In practice, the rhythm method (even with refinements) is very unreliable.
Worse yet, deliberate avoidance of intercourse around the time of ovulation can be confidently expected to increase the risk of fertilization with a time-worn sperm or egg and hence the probability of fetal abnormality. Various studies have indicated that this is, indeed, what happens.
5. Why is human birth such a long and painful process?
Human birth is a challenging process usually lasting several hours, rather than just an hour or two as in monkeys and apes. This is because our newborns are unusually large -- twice as big as babies of great apes -- and have particularly large brains.
During birth, the human baby rotates in a complex manner, with the result that its head normally ends up facing toward the mother's back rather than to the front, as in other primates. Measurement reveals that the size of the newborn's head is pushed to the limit. Biological dimensions generally fit a standard bell curve, which statisticians call a normal distribution. But the curves are truncated at the upper end for the newborn's head and at the lower end the size of the pelvic canal.
In a process called "genetic pruning," natural selection has acted against over-large heads and small pelvic canals. The fit is still so tight that the human brain also has to grow an unusual amount after birth. In other primates, the newborn's brain is about half its adult size, but in humans it is only a quarter of adult size.
So, despite the large size of human newborns and their brains, additional rapid brain growth after birth is needed.

Of course, this is aimed primarily at the U.S. citizens here. If you look at the modern democracies with national religions, church attendance is very low. Far lower than in the United States. Is a national religion the best tool atheists would have to promoting religious apathy or even disbelief?

I'd be delighted to do something like that, but only as a way to dismantle the fallacy of "big tent Christianity". We'd have to pick a denomination as the official religion, as there is no single Church of Christianity.
When someone gets up on the stump and proclaims themselves a "Christian", we need to loudly question which specific branch they believe in. We cannot allow them to pretend they're all the same - the more we openly question them, the more that lie falls apart. Look back to when JFK ran for president, and you'll see an environment where his Catholicism was viewed as a roadblock rather than an asset. We need to re-focus the "big tent Christians" on seeing their differences.
When someone wants to put up the Ten Commandments in a public building, agree with them wholeheartedly, with the provision that they must identify which version (http://www.positiveatheism.org/crt/whichcom.htm) - by public referendum - is to be accepted. This typically results in backpedaling or saying that there's only one version.
One of the major successes of the Intelligent Design movement was the wedge strategy - surround your point of view with enough fluff and PR to elevate it to look as if it's on the same level as your opponent's position. We can dismantle this by playing the factions against each other. At 10,000 feet, everyone's a "Christian". At 10 feet, there are dozens of factions that disagree on everything from transubstantiation to faith healing to women's role in the church.
Let's play up those divisions and we'll reduce the big-tenters to petty infighting.
No... It would just give the theists more fuel for their 'the U.S. was built on Christian values". It's bad enough when they claim "In God We Trust" is evidence to that or that the Constitution was built off Christian tenants.
There should be a sign that says... Don't Feed The Theists.
Sounds like a plan that could really backfire on us. The moment you give the Nutbag Fundies their "National Religion", you give them another bullet in their arsenal. They'll use it to justify more hatred, more bigotry, more oppression, etc etc etc...
Give no ground, and never surrender. Atheism will win out eventually.
oh hellll naw
For all practical purposes, it already is.
I've previously made a blog post to that effect.
Nationalizing religion is something which was invented by Henry VIII and Cromwell circa 1530, and has been a good idea ever since.
Maybe the National Church of the Subgenius! Any one who signs on would have to smoke a pipe, and wear a suit and tie. That might shut them UP!
hell to the no. People don't start hating state religions until AFTER state religions have fucked shit up. (see French Revolution, etc). I would prefer the fucked-upness of our shit to remain at a moderate level, or preferably decrease, thank you very much.
[see also Rob Klaers's post]
Imo, there is little hope for Americans, at least in my lifetime - we have so much Christian propoganda and so many Christian politicians out there making laws and implementing policies that it will be a long time before there is a majority of apathy or disbelief.
So much for the First Amendment....... State religion = BAD idea.

Visual Birth Control
I think I finally figured it out, you guys:
How else do you explain the continuing popularity of chopped up baby halves, despite my many and well-reasoned protests?
(This is from a shop display window. Just once I want to see that ridiculous little drapey bit propped up with a spinal cord sticking out. JUST ONCE.)
And why else do bakers insist on making the most nightmarish pregnant torsos imaginable, which they know the laws of polite manners will force us to eat?
"No, no, YOU make the first cut. We'll just be right over here...across the street."
And as if the protruding feet and hands weren't enought, then they go and stick plastic baby dolls inside the limbless torso's cakey love tunnels, because this is EXACTLY the visual you want right before chowing down on tiny sandwiches and fruit punch:
Now, who wants to lick the love tunnel frosting off the newborn?
Ah, but you know what? Licking the newborn isn't enough - no sir!
We need to CARVE UP THE NEWBORN and EAT HIM!
"Slice off the head first, would you? I could swear it's looking at me."
Speaking of which, there's a .gif going around this week of one of the more realistic baby cakes I've featured having its head sliced open. It's more than a little disturbing, as anyone who pauses to think past the initial "Oh what a cute idea!" of the baby cake can no doubt imagine.
Still, what if bakers showed that .gif to every customer trying to order a baby cake? Why, I bet the world would be a slightly more wreck-less place!
Or we'd just give those people more ideas.
"Ok, ok, I've got it. What we need are... BITE-SIZED babies!"
Yeah, never mind. We're doomed.
Thanks to Jenny Lee, Mary V., Ann Marie G., Keith & Lorraine C., & Heather G., who all have names that rhyme! Woohoo! (Life's more fun when you're easily amused. Or rockin' a wicked sugar high. Or both!)

Google Unit Cuts the Price of Moto X Phone
Move Continues the Assault on Its Rivals' High Margins
Google Inc.'s Motorola Mobility unit dropped the price on its flagship smartphone Wednesday, continuing its assault on the high margins of its smartphone rivals.
In a blog post, the company said its Moto X with 16 gigabytes of memory would now cost $399 without a wireless contract for U.S. customers, down from $550. The company offered the Moto X for brief periods in December at $349, but the latest price drop isn't a temporary promotion....

Learn more about J.D. Power and JDPower.com by viewing our list of frequently asked questions.
General Questions | Autos Questions
What is J.D. Power?J.D. Power is well known for our global marketing information based on independent consumer surveys of product and service quality, customer satisfaction, and buyer behavior. Each year, we interact with millions of consumers to better understand their opinions, perceptions, and expectations about a variety of products and services in more than a dozen industries.
Our services include customer satisfaction research, market research, and performance improvement programs.
Established in 1968 and headquartered in Costa Mesa, California, J.D. Power has 17 locations serving North/South America, Europe, and the Asia Pacific region.
Learn more about J.D. Power >
J.D. Power: Integrity, Independence, Impact®
- Conducts research used by companies worldwide to improve product quality and customer satisfaction.
- Bases its research on feedback from millions of consumers and business customers worldwide.
- Compiles studies that serve as industry benchmarks for measuring quality and customer satisfaction.
- Does not publish or incorporate the opinions of J.D. Power or its employees in its rankings.
How does J.D. Power conduct its research?J.D. Power surveys consumers and business customers by mail, telephone, and e-mail. We go to great lengths to make sure that these respondents are chosen at random and that they actually have experience with the product or company they are rating. For example, ratings for the Lexus IS come from people who actually own one. As a result, J.D. Power ratings are based entirely on consumer opinions and perceptions.
What is JDPower.com?J.D. "Dave" Power III, founder of J.D. Power, wanted to give something back to the consumers who completed the company's independent surveys. JDPower.com's free product and service ratings represent Dave's heartfelt "thank you" to the hundreds of thousands of people who responded to surveys about products and services in a variety of industries.
J.D. Power translates consumer survey responses into studies and reports that are used by companies worldwide to improve product quality, customer satisfaction, and other business metrics. JDPower.com features top-level highlights of these benchmarking studies using a Power Circle Ratings system, which conveys consumer perceptions of product quality and customer satisfaction. For example, Power Circle Ratings related to the J.D. Power Initial Quality Study measure consumer perceptions of automotive new-vehicle quality after 90 days of ownership.
What is the connection between JDPower.com and J.D. Power?JDPower.com is owned and operated by J.D. Power. The vision for JDPower.com originated with the company's founder, J.D. Power, III, who wanted to provide consumers with highlights of the company's research to demonstrate to survey respondents that their input, via the company's questionnaires, makes a difference. At JDPower.com, consumers can view the results of the studies in which they have participated as well as all syndicated studies prepared by J.D. Power.
Why does advertising appear on JDPower.com?Focus groups reveal that consumers find advertising helpful as long as it does not interfere with the user experience. With nearly 300 automotive models for sale in the U.S., consumers find that advertising, in appropriate places on Web sites, often presents models that they were not necessarily aware of prior to viewing the advertisement.
How is JDPower.com different from other Web sites with ratings?JDPower.com helps consumers make more informed purchase decisions using J.D. Power's voice-of-the-customer (VOC) information generated by owners and users of products and services. JDPower.com publishes selected VOC highlights from J.D. Power industry benchmarking studies in a format that is easy to understand and which helps consumers make more informed decisions when shopping for products and services. JDPower.com Power Circle Ratings reflect the experiences of consumers and business customers and not the opinions or preferences of J.D. Power. VOC information also determines specific content created by the JDPower.com editorial team.
What are Power Circle Ratings?Power Circle Ratings* (the Ratings) are an easy-to-use system developed by J.D. Power for JDPower.com. All Ratings are based on the opinions of consumers who have actually used or owned the product or service being rated. Since the Ratings are based on J.D. Power research studies that survey a representative sample of owners, they are indicative of what typical buyers may experience.
High ratings for a particular product/service/company do not necessarily mean that every customer will have a positive experience. It simply indicates that, on average, consumer perceptions of the product/service/company indicate that it stands out when compared with competitive products/services/companies.
What is an index score?J.D. Power uses a customer satisfaction "Index" as a means to determine most of its ratings and awards. To determine this Index, J.D. Power asks survey respondents to rate various aspects of their service or product experience. These vary by industry, but include such areas as customer service, billing, ease of use, etc. Based on these consumer responses, we then determine the importance of each of these areas and how each contributes to overall satisfaction. The consumer ratings on each of these areas, and their relative importance, are combined to create an overall numerical Index score--and this score determines which companies or brands receive a J.D. Power award.
What makes JDPower.com Power Circle Ratings different?Power Circle Ratings are one of the only sources of consumer ratings based on independent and unbiased feedback from a representative sample of verified product and service owners. Representative means that the study results represent the general population of buyers/owners of that particular product or service, and verified means that the respondent actually owns, has owned, or used the product or service being rated.
Although many Web sites provide consumer ratings and feedback, in most cases product or service ownership is not verified. Verification of ownership is important because ratings on other sites may be based on information collected from online surveys, discussion forums, or chat rooms. In many cases, this type of consumer feedback lacks sufficient rigor. In some instances, a respondent is providing feedback on a product or service that they do not own.
What is the difference between Voice of the Customer feedback and expert opinion?J.D. Power provides "Voice of the Customer" research based on actual survey responses from real consumers. J.D. Power represents the Voice of the Customer by translating survey responses from consumers and businesses into studies and reports that are used by companies worldwide to improve quality and customer satisfaction. These studies, reports, and Power Circle Ratings are based solely on Voice of the Customer feedback*.
J.D. Power researchers who conduct the surveys and prepare study results do not conduct product testing activities. J.D. Power does, however, leverage its expertise within the industries it serves to help companies improve their quality and customer satisfaction performance. Associates at J.D. Power also provide content on JDPower.com that showcases their expertise.
Other companies may provide their own experts to test products and services and generate ratings based on such expert opinions. But, this is not how J.D. Power operates. Our study results, reports, and Power Circle Ratings are solely based on the Voice of the Customer.
I had a negative experience with a product or service provider that ranked highly in a J.D. Power study. How can this be?Even top performers occasionally receive poor ratings. However, when the responses from thousands of consumers are combined, industry leaders have higher overall ratings than their competitors. The expectation is that you are more likely to be satisfied with an industry leader than with those that receive lower overall ratings.
How do companies receive approval to use J.D. Power awards?J.D. Power has strict guidelines for advertising claims, and every advertising claim related to a study is reviewed prior to publication to ensure accuracy. Only highest-ranked performers in pre-defined categories are allowed to license the use of J.D. Power awards in advertising.
Results are based on measures of customer satisfaction and quality by consumers that are proprietary to J.D. Power. Awards and performance ranking are based on numerical scores, and not necessarily on statistical significance. Our experience indicates that even when small differences occur in the scores of those being measured, these small perceived differences help drive competition in the marketplace, thereby improving product and service quality and driving increases in overall customer satisfaction.
How can J.D. Power information be unbiased when manufacturers pay for the studies?J.D. Power industry benchmarking studies generally are not funded by the companies that are measured. Our syndicated studies are funded and owned by the company and based on the aggregated responses of consumer perceptions of product quality and customer satisfaction--not the opinions of J.D. Power. After the study results are published, manufacturers, retailers, suppliers, and other industry participants can choose whether or not to purchase the study. Ownership of study data is key to the company's independence and unbiased position. This third-party perspective enables us to provide clients and consumers with credible and clear feedback. Although J.D. Power does conduct custom research for many clients to help drive quality and customer satisfaction improvement, results of this type of proprietary research are owned by the clients that commission the research and the results are not made available to the public.
I received a J.D. Power questionnaire but I've misplaced it. How can I request another survey?At any one time, there are more than 400 projects in various stages of the survey/data collection process. Therefore, it is not feasible to provide another survey for a particular study and be assured that it can be included before the study closing deadline. We appreciate your interest in participating in our surveys; hopefully, there will be another opportunity in the future for you to complete one.
Why am I no longer receiving email communications from J.D. Power?Due to firewall restrictions at the recipient level, some previous email subscribers may have been removed from the distribution list. If you are a previous subscriber but have not received any of our recent emails, please contact your IT department and have them designate the following domains as "safe" to receive email from:

For veteran Edison Occhi, the Korean War continues to serve as a vivid memory full of heartache and pain. He served 21 years in the U.S. Marine Corps, and enlisted at the age of 17-and-half after attending trade school.
From September 1950 to January 1952, he fought during the Korean War.
Wounded twice, Occhi said he feels lucky to be alive today, especially since he lost friends in the line of duty.
"Death was very uncertain and swift," said Occhi, who recalled how the summer months reached up to 110 degrees and then below zero during the winter months in Korea. "I was fortunate to make it back. Someone was watching over me."
On Monday Occhi participated in the annual Veterans Day celebration hosted by the American Legion Post 72 on the green, saluting in his military uniform. For Occhi, the ceremony served as a meaningful reminder of why he fought during the war. During the celebration, he received an honorary certificate from the Legion in recognition of his service.
"I am proud to serve my country," Occhi said. "Freedom is not free, and someone had to pay the price to make us free."
With the help of Southington Town Hall, past commander John DeMello and the Legion conducted research to find the names of local veterans from town who served during the Korean War since this year marks the 60th anniversary of the historical event, which ended in an armistice. Over a span of less than two weeks, the town found close to 700 names of veterans from Southington and a few outside the town.
"War is brutal, you just do what you have to do," Occhi said.
Members of the Legion provided certificates, printed by the Department of Defense, to veterans who are members of Post #72 from the Korean War era as well as to other veterans out of state or in other cities in Connecticut.
"It gives vets and their families something to be proud of," DeMello said. "It will bring pride back in their hearts."
Besides honoring Korean War veterans, the Legion, along with town officials and state representatives paid tribute to all veterans, recognizing the role they played in American freedom too. The Knights of Columbus placed a white cross below the flag pole in front of the Legion's office to commemorate all comrades buried overseas.
"It is the soldiers that do the footwork, it is the soldiers that fight," said former town councilor Dr. Al Natelli, who announced that over 120 pounds of candy will be donated to veterans overseas on behalf of the Southington Dental Associates for its Halloween Candy Buy Back drive.
The ceremony also resonated with Richard Krampitz Sr., who served in the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam War. His brother, Edward Christensen, who served in the U.S. Marines, died in battle at the age of 19, leaving a wife and unborn child behind.
"I am here to pay respect to all our veterans, to see old friends, and to pay respects to my brother," Krampitz said.
Town thanks its local veterans

Why We Love Smurfs
My husband was fascinated with Smurfs since he was a young child. Some boys play with toy soldiers, my husband had his Schleich Smurfs. He spent his childhood crocheting blankets for them, building Lego merry-go-rounds for them, or sending them on various adventures. His parents kept his Smurf collection, and eventually he brought them over. Now our daughter is playing with them. At first, she was rather indifferent to them, but we got some original Smurf graphic novels by Peyo, and she got more enthusiastic about these funny blue creatures. In fact, she started to draw her own Smurfs and Smurf villages, but my husband insisted that Smurf homes should look more "mushroom-like". This is how the idea of a DIY Smurf house was born.
Supplies Needed
- An empty oatmeal cylindrical box
- A paper soup bowl
- A cork
- Tempera paint
- An exacto knife (wielded by an adult)
Make Your Smurf House
My husband cut a cereal box in half and made windows and doors with an exacto knife. Smarty was delighted to be able to choose colors for her Smurf houses and their roofs and then went to town painting them. We helped somewhat since she ran out of steam after about 20 minutes. We let the paint dry, and then my husband hot glued a cork "chimney" to the roof.
While Smarty enjoyed having these houses for Smurfs, she enjoyed wearing "roof hats" even more. She thought that they look "very fashionable". Unfortunately, I did not think to make pictures of her actually playing with the houses, and at the moment of refreshing this post they are gone, replaced by forever changing Magna Tiles palaces.

Just weeks after reducing a fine against the Larimer County Republican Party, Secretary of State Scott Gessler is helping the party host a fundraiser to pay down the penalty his office ultimately levied.
The fundraiser will feature Gessler, a Republican who took office in January, sitting in a dunk tank so that local Republicans angry about the $15,700 fine can throw balls at a target and send him splashing downward.
Gessler told The Denver Post there was nothing inappropriate with his participation in the Sept. 22 fundraiser, but others have called it a shocking conflict of interest with his duty as the state's chief elections officer.
Gessler also raised eyebrows in January when he announced he was considering moonlighting at his old law firm, which handles election cases, to supplement in $68,500 salary. Amid considerable criticism, he scrapped the idea.

Google Maps for iOS Hits Apple App Store
Nearly three months after Apple removed the pre-installed Google Maps from its mobile operating system with iOS 6, the search giant today released a Google Maps app for iOS.
The free app is now available in the App Store and will work with devices running iOS 5.1 and higher, Apple said. At this point, however, it installs the smaller-screened iPhone version on the iPad.
"Get comprehensive, accurate, and easy-to-use maps with built-in Google local search, voice guided turn-by-turn navigation, public transit directions, Street View, and more," Google said.
That's likely a dig at Apple, which replaced Google Maps with its much-maligned Apple Maps. Those with iOS 6, however, quickly discovered that Apple's mapping solution was often inaccurate and buggy. Eventually, Apple's Tim Cook issued an apology, reportedly reshuffled senior staff over the gaffe, and even told users to check out competing products until Cupertino fixed its own mapping app.
Google Maps for iOS looks similar to the iOS app long-time users will remember, with a few tweaks that make its interface appear more Android than iOS. It includes a beta version of turn-by-turn navigation, while a menu in to bottom right corner provides links to traffic, public transit, satellite photos, and Google Earth.
The popular Street View is back. Type in the desired address, and swipe up from the bottom of the screen for a Street View thumbnail; tap it for full screen. You can also share a location via text message or email.
There's the option to sign in with your Google account and enter your home and work address for easier navigation. Activity is synced, so locations you searched for on your work PC via Chrome will show up on the "Maps history" tab within Google Maps for iOS.
The app incorporates Google Instant, so Google will guess the location, store, or restaurant you want as you type it. Once you find it, swipe up for more information, photos, and reviews from the now Google-owned Zagat.
A "shake to send feedback" option lets you compose a message to Google with a shake of your iPhone.
For more, see The Best Features of Google Maps for iOS.

This cape completed my daughter's Halloween Witch costume, and I am very proud of it.
I got 1 yard of purple fabric, and 1 yard of black fabric.
To make the 2 sides of the cape, I took a piece of string and a fabric pencil, and made the cape as deep as I could (just the width of the fabric), and traced a small arc until I hit the edges of the fabric length wise. I then made a smaller arc for the neck.
I found pictures of Halloween items that I liked, in this case a cat and a spider, and traced them out of the opposite color fabric and cut them out.
I used iron on fabric to temporarily hold my cut outs onto the fabric, so they would stay put while I sewed around them. I did a tight zig-zag stitch, about 1/4 inch thick, all the way around each shape in coordinating thread.
I made 2 strips for the neck ties out of scraps of the fabric.
After sewing around the cut outs, I put the cape right sides together, put the neck ties facing in, at the edges of the neck arc, and sewed all the way around, leaving a few inches to turn it right side out.
I whip stitched the small opening closed. Done!

Doug Martin is torching the record books just eight games into his rookie campaign.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back barreled 25 times for 251 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 42-32 win over the Oakland Raiders.
Relive every game this season online and on-demand with enhanced viewing features, including the "All-22" coaches film. Get NFL Game Rewind.
Martin's outburst established a franchise record for rushing yardage and touchdowns in a single game. And what a game it was.
Martin's 45-yard touchdown gallop in the third quarter was the longest of his career, but that was short-lived. The rookie burst free for a 67-yard score later in the quarter, and then -- one drive later -- went for another from 70 yards. Martin had 244 yards at that point, breaking the team's 219-yard single-game mark, set by James Wilder in November 1983.
Martin's fourth and final score -- from 1 yard out -- came in the game's closing minutes and helped snuff out a furious Oakland rally.
Martin is just the second player in NFL history to rush for 250-plus yards and four scores in a contest. Mike Anderson did it with the Denver Broncos in December 2000, also rushing for 251 yards against the New Orleans Saints. Both players are tied for 10th all time on the single-game rushing yardage leaderboard, just below Dallas Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray's 253-yard output from a season ago.
Martin also is the first player in NFL history with touchdown runs of 70-plus, 65-plus and 45-plus yards in a game.
He isn't a complete surprise, but Martin's level of production ceratinly is. Even more impressive: His work against the Raiders came with All-Pro guard Carl Nicks out of the Bucs' lineup with a season-ending toe injury.
The growth of the Bucs' young offense has something to do with quarterback Josh Freeman and everything to do with Martin. The rookie uses his 5-foot-9, 215-pound stature to smash through people, but he can turn on the jets, too. The Minnesota Vikings dealt with it last week. The Raiders had their hands full Sunday.
It didn't take long for Martin to make history, but he's just getting started.

Good God this show is depressing.
It's fun to look at dead bodies and blood and guts a little bit, but then you throw in all the nihilistic conversation and abandoned long distance hikers and by the end of the episode you're just like ._.
This episode was kind of a departure from the norm because it didn't really address the Woodbury-Prison storyline at all, and it really only featured four characters: Rick, Carl, Michonne and ... Morgan! Oh, and that hippie hitchhiker guy.
Spoilers alertz!
We can finally scratch "Where are Morgan and Duane?" off of the "Lingering questions" list!
Answer: Duane was the victim of zombofilicide and Morgan has gone off of the deep end.
Morgan did look pretty cool wearing that body armor and tinted motorcycle helmet though.
OK, for the more casual viewers out there: Morgan and Duane Jones met Rick Grimes in the very first episode of the entire series. And we haven't seen him since then ... until tonight. So it's kind of a big deal.
This episode was a little heavy on the dialog side, but I was kind of digging the riffing going on between Morgan and Rick.
I could imagine a community college philosophy professor sitting in the background on a desk just nodding and nodding like "Yes you guys! Yes!"
Morgan basically says that life is sh!t and Rick offers to bring him back into the fold even though they tried to kill each other. I don't want to speak for Rick, but you could kind of see what was going on in his dome this episode. Reuniting with Morgan gave him a little link to his non-insane past, and he also saw how insane Morgan was ("You were wearing dead people's faces!"), which told him that maybe no one has their kaka totally together, and maybe that's normal.
Or as Seal so eloquently put it: we're never gonna survive unless we go a little....
Anyway, Morgan politely declines Rick's invitation — cleverly deducing from his old friend's gun lust that a dangerous brawl was about to go down — and goes to incinerate zombie carcasses on his killing floor.
With all that fun stuff going on in King County, can you really blame him for not wanting to go hang out in a prison?
P.S. King County is the town that Rick and Shane lived and worked in before all the trouble started. I didn't realize they were still that close?
The entire episode wasn't just about Morgan and Rick's reunion.
Michonne and Carl also go on a little sidequest for Carl to get some presents for baby sister Judith.
During the trip, Michonne uses her ninja skills to nab the Grimes family photo and some garish cat sculpture, and in the process ingratiates herself to little Carl.
Carl later tells Rick "I think she might be one of us."
I read that as "I want her to be my new mommy" so now it's time for Rick to start macking.
As Rick, Carl and Michonne head back to the prison in the Hyundai, they pass the mutilated corpse of the screaming man who had been trying to flag them down at the beginning of the episode.
They wouldn't stop for him then, or even acknowledge his existence, but now they'll stop: to pilfer his Jansport.
One of the strangest attempts at humor ever on The Walking Dead
When Michonne does her little stealthy ninja bit to retreive the Grimes Olan Mills photo, she also produces this unusual, rainbow wooden statuette thing of a cat arching its back.
And then, as a way of explaining that her motivation wasn't entirely to do Carl a solid, she says that the hideous cat statue was "just too damn gorgeous."
WTF!? What is she going to do with that monstrosity? Anything other than lob it into the air and chop the heck out of it with her Genji Blade before it hits the ground is simply unacceptable.
Second place: At the end of the episode Rick says to Michonne "Do you wanna drive? Good, 'cause I see things." It got a little chuckle, but it was kind of like that moment at the end of a sitcom where they refer to something silly that happened earlier in the episode.
Another pretty good bit was when Michonne just started snacking on Morgan's granola (that sounds really dirty) and Rick was like "we're eating his food now?" Michonne just goes "the mat said welcome." I chortled.
Morgan is played by actor Lennie James. Lennie is British and has also been in a bunch of other TV shows, including Jericho, and the movie Snatch. He's a pretty sick actor. Remember when he was like "You said you would turn on your radio every day at dawn and you were NOT THERE!" That was awesome. Good to have you back Lennie.
- According to AMC Story Sync, Morgan has 26 assault rifles, one sniper rifle, 22 hunting rifles, 10 shotguns, 48 grenades, one crossbow, 10 semi-automatic handguns and four hunting long bows. (Now I'm not one of these pacifist hippies, but doesn't that seem excessive for one man? I mean, do you really need 50 rifles to kill a zombie?)
- "King County" was actually Grantville, GA
- Morgan was supposed to come back last season, but according to Talking Dead, actor Lennie James was just too busy...
- King County downtown is at the 51-mile marker of something...
- There is a sign in the police office that says "Take home weapons can not be stored in vehicles trunks."
- There was a green grasshopper on the brick wall when they arrived at King County!
- Among the businesses they walked past was McKee Heating and Air Conditioning. There is an actual business by that name in Grantville, GA. Apparently Mark McKee treats his customers like they are family.
- That ax trap that Morgan set seems to have worked recently, because it was covered in fresh blood! Who did it work on, a zombie or a man?
- Rick's old house was on Morgan's map of town, and it was listed as "Taken" and then "Burnt out."
- At one point when Rick was talking to Morgan his British accent slipped out. He said "You can" and it sounded like "You cahh-nnn" like he was Austin Powers.
- The sign alongside the highway at the beginning said "Erin, we tried for Stone Mountain, -J" Then later some zombie has a bracelet on that says "Erin." Was J the hiker guy? My joke is that from the looks of all the feathers and beads on that sign they were trying for "stoned" mountain. Hah!
I'm not going to go back and write down everything Morgan wrote on his walls in his apartment because if I did, I'd go insane (ROFL!) But here are a few of the things he wrote around town:
The Finer Things, Steve Winwood
Come As You Are, Nirvana
Caring is Creepy, The Shins
Incinerate, Sonic Youth
Where Eagles Dare, The Misfits
Vicarious, Tool
How It Is, Biohazard
Symptom of the Universe, Black Sabbath
Morgan: "I don't know anyone anymore! You go clear!"
Morgan: "Please! Please kill me!"
Rick: "I'm Rick Grimes, you know me. I'm not wearing a dead man's face."
Morgan: "Your boy, is he dead? No? He will be."
Morgan: "The weaker people, like me, we have inherited the earth."
Michonne: "I can't stop you, but you can't stop me from helping you."
Morgan: "You will be torn apart by teeth or bullets, you and your boy, your people, but not me!"
Morgan: "I don't think you heard a damn word that I said!"
Morgan: "I have to clear."
Carl: "I had to shoot you, you know I had to right? I'm sorry."
Michonne: "I know you see things, people. I used to talk to my dead boyfriend. It happens."
Winner: Morgan
Rick: Shaking off the cobwebs.
Michonne: Fondling bullets and giving Rick the eyes.
Carl: Being more of a father to Judith than Rick ever was!
Morgan: Acting batty.
Backpacker: Trying to befriend strangers by running at them and screaming maniacally.
When Michonne impaled that one through the forehead. It was about to tell Carl to stop dancing on the bar. It had a really perfect crew cut. I guess a zombie's hair stops growing when it dies, but wouldn't its hair be more mussed up? When I get a crew cut it looks worse than that just after two days of rolling around in bed and wearing hats.
There was that one shuffling around near Morgan's traps in King County that had the sickest washboard abs. It had like a size 22 waist, like Ravishing Rick Rude.
There was also one that stumbled out of the walk-in freezer at the King County Cafe. It was all dry and dirty, it looked like it had been rolling around in flour or got buried by a bunch of kids at Rehoboth Beach and just stayed there for five years.
Zombies: Nine, for 190 on the season.
Humans: One, the raving Sunny Surplus shopping spree man, for 29 on the season.
Lingering questions
- How do Milton's inventions work?
- What is Morgan going to do with himself in King County?
- Why didn't the Governor have a scout near the prison who could have told him that three of its best fighters (Rick, Carl and Michonne) had just gone on a daytrip, and that it was a good time to attack?
- Who would win in a fight: The Blair Witch, or the zombies?
The Governor meets with Rick and is there for one thing only, their surrender. The heat is back on in the Woodbury vs. prison fight.

- With Committed Use Discounts you can save up to 57% with no upfront costs or instance-type lockin.
- Containers
- Run, manage, and orchestrate Docker containers directly on Compute Engine VMs or with Google Kubernetes Engine.
" Since no existing cloud rendering solution could address our needs at that scale, we decided to develop our own software atop Google Cloud Platform. Google's efficiency, availability of resources, and per-second billing formed the back-end of a product we call Conductor. "- Kevin Baillie Atomic Fiction

A woman claiming Casey Anthony is part of an Illuminati conspiracy and is a danger to the public won't be getting her day in court any time soon.
Naomi Riches' lawsuit against Anthony, who was acquitted last year on charges she murdered her daughter, asked for $3 billion in compensation, claiming Anthony caused her emotional and mental distress, Metro Philadelphia reported Sunday.
The case was dismissed on Wednesday.
The lawsuit is filled with some pretty crazy accusations. Here are the best ones, courtesy of Metro Philadelphia. Note that they are just accusations, not facts:
"Casey Anthony is an Illuminati actress who [h]as used the summers of 2009-2011 to mock and harass my current circumstances. Casey Anthony and Nancy Grace are working in cahoots with one another to fill the media with propaganda so that American [c]itizens believe there is [j]ustice in this country. The media is lying and these people are all actors for the Illuminati."
Anthony allegedly threatened to kill Riches, stab out her eye, and claimed the government was poisoning Riches' water supply.
Hollywood made Riches into a celebrity without her knowledge and people were making "trillions of dollars" off of her.
"She told me that there were cameras lodged in the back of my eyes and that my life is a reality show for the Elite. For months I couldn't use the bathroom to go number 1 or 2 without thinking there was some sick wealthy pervert watching me through the cameras Casey Anthony claimed were lodged in the back of my eyes."
Anthony, who has been in hiding since her not guilty verdict last year, was finally made a free woman in August when her probation on an unrelated charge ended.
She is also currently embroiled in a civil trial with Zenaida Gonzalez who claims her life was ruined when Anthony told police a woman with a similar name kidnapped her daughter.
