The fruit basket is on its way, presumably. It should arrive in East Lansing, Mich., sometime today. And word is, it's quite extravagant.
This is as it should be when you're the Southeastern Conference and you have all that dough to spend from all those big-deal bowl games, and you've avoided the embarrassment of missing out on the biggest of the big-deal games thanks to a bunch of Spartans from Michigan State.
Sparty took down Ohio State 34-24 in the Big Ten championship game Saturday night, a not unexpected result to anyone who has been paying attention. The loss ended Ohio State's 24-game winning streak, but the streak had been on the endangered species list for quite a while this fall, given all the Buckeyes' nonblowouts over some pretty beige competition.
So in marched MSU, and out marched OSU. And, yes, the fruit basket is just desserts, not only because the SEC will now be represented in the BCS title game as usual, but because the rest of us will be spared any further blather over whether or not Auburn should have jumped an unbeaten BCS automatic qualifier team.
Well, Auburn jumped 'em. But they were already down, so problem solved.
That leaves us with what frankly will be a much more intriguing matchup for the national title than it would have been, so send Sparty another fruit basket for that. Florida State-Ohio State would have been Alabama-Notre Dame all over again, if not worse. Florida State-Auburn, however, has an outside chance of actually being, you know, a game.
Missouri came to the SEC title game with a team that had gotten to 11- 1 thanks to a dazzling quarterback (James Franklin) and a defense studded with athletes, particularly up front. And Auburn ran around, over and through them, putting up 59 points and running up 677 yards, including 545 on the ground. Tre Mason gashed Mizzou for 304 all by himself.
So there's your first matchup to watch: Auburn's ground game vs. a fast, athletic Florida State defense that's let no one drink a drop, seven times limiting opponents to a touchdown or less.
The other matchup to watch is Florida State quarterback and presumptive Heisman Trophy winner Jameis Winston vs. the Auburn defense.
And unlike the previous matchup, that one looks on paper to be a flat mismatch.
This is, after all, an Auburn team that just gave up 42 points to Mizzou, and 365 total yards to Franklin. Now it gets Winston, who has passed for 3,820 yards and 38 touchdowns this year, while completing almost 70 percent of his throws.
Even given the perceived inferiority of the competition in the Atlantic Coast Conference, that's a load. It would be a load in the ACC or the Mountain West or the Really Tiny Guy Conference. It would be a load in the Florida High School Athletic Association.
And so the conclusion, at least here, is the Seminoles drop a truckload of numbers on the Tigers, and, when they're done, they'll be laying hands on the crystal football. Over-under on points: 100.
And the over-under on fruit baskets headed north?
At least two. Three if you count the one from Columbus, Ohio, where Urban Meyer now gets Clemson in the Orange Bowl instead of Florida State.
Thanks, Sparty.

A new study has revealed that violent shows on the broadcast networks carry milder parental cautions than those on cable shows.
A watchdog group called Parents Television Council says the TV rating system is failing. The group recently found scenes of stabbings, shootings, rape and decapitation on broadcast channels, but instead of having the stronger rating of TV-MA, which is for mature audiences only, the violent content had a TV-14 rating, which means it's not suitable for children under 14.
But Lizzie Crocker of the Daily Beast says she is skeptical about the claims from the PTC because she says the conservative group is known for trying to get rid of violence and anything "naughty" on TV.
The best advice for parents is to monitor what your children are watching.

Disney is more than just a destination. It is also an adventure with Adventures by Disney. I am choosing to write about this because I, a member of the travel industry, didn't know about Adventures by Disney.
I picked up a brochure the other day because I liked the color, and it was a Disney brochure. I looked up, completely innocently, and asked one of the agents, Disney goes to Australia? Of course they laughed at me, thinking I was kidding.
So, I continued to page through the brochure and to my amazement, they have 23 different itineraries. They visit North America, as well as Central America and South America, Western Europe, Central Europe, Southern Europe, Asia, South Africa and my favorite, Australia.
I have always wanted to go to Australia; this is my dream destination or adventure. I have looked at many different ways of getting there, what to experience and how while visiting. I hadn't come across this idea.
On Discovery Down Under, I can plunge into the largest coral reef system on Earth, where schools of color explode from every direction. I could choose to ride a camel through the desert and watch a sunset on Ayers Rock, the island mountain. I can explore the land from ocean to desert, rainforest to reef, all with a twist of Disney.
No matter where I choose to go, I will be in a small group of around 10 families with a maximum of 40 guests. I think this is great, because I personally don't like to travel with hundreds of others straining to see and hear during my dream vacation.
We will be in the hands of two dedicated adventure guides, who will be by our side in the world's most captivating adventures, or at least Australia's most captivating adventures. The guides will tell us stories and show me hidden treasures that I wouldn't find on a map. How exciting.
Of course, there will be plenty of time for us to explore on our own. These adventures have free time built into each trip.
I personally don't have any young children, but I hear they offer a great junior adventurer program. Every trip is filled with ways for junior adventurers to make new friends and have fun. Their goals are set up as missions. In the Outback, their mission would be to make and throw their very own boomerangs.
Working with a local artisan, your child will have the time of his life and a memorable vacation. You don't just have to choose Australia, your child can learn stick fighting with a Kung Fu master in China, take archery lessons near a princess-enchanted German castle, learn to throw a trick rope in the southwest and even rope a steer, treasure hunt through the Louvre in Paris, discovering legendary artwork, or even snorkel with the wild creatures in the Galapagos Islands.
No matter which destination you choose, one thing is for sure: wherever you go, there's an amazing adventure waiting for you and your children, filled with fun, amazing things you love to do, sometimes even a special dinner-and-a-movie night.
Well, I told you about my dream destination. Tell me about yours. You can visit places you haven't seen yet right here in our own USA.
Spirit of America visits Philadelphia, Washington, D.C. and Williamsburg, Va.
Spend some time in Boston, Newport and New York City or head further west to Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks. The Grand Canyon is an awe-inspiring sight in the southwest splendors. Alaska, Denali National Park; need I say more?
Whatever your destination it is sure to be a magical and memorable adventure.

TOMAH, WI (WTAQ) - The state's largest natural gas utility is considering a new pipeline in western Wisconsin, to provide fuel to a growing number of plants that make frac-sand.
In a conference call with analysts this week, Wisconsin Energy CEO Gale Klappa said at least dozen frac-sand mining companies have asked We Energies to consider providing them service. And Klappa said the utility is starting to check out possible routes between Tomah and Eau Claire County for a natural gas pipeline.
He said the company expects to apply to state utility regulators next year for a project that may cost around $150 million.

Civil engineers from MIT have completed a study in which they have determined that vehicle fuel consumption could be reduced by as much as 3 percent by having stiffer roads. Looking at the way forces interact between the tire and levitra daily the road, the researchers conclude that, "This has the effect of making the tires on the vehicle drive continuously up a slight slope."
Inefficiencies due to saggy roads are responsible for the buy levitra at a discount use of buy cialis online uk an extra 273 million barrels of crude oil per year (costing $15.6 billion at today's oil prices) and producing CO2 emissions of 46.5 million metric tons. In addition to the fuel savings, building better roads would reduce maintenance costs, providing long-term savings and improved national infrastructure.
"We're wasting fuel unnecessarily because pavement design has been based solely on minimizing initial costs more than performance — how well the pavement holds up — when it should also take into account the environmental footprint of pavements based on variations in external conditions," according to Mehdi Akbarian, one of the study's authors.
With over 8.5 million lane miles making up the US roadway network, it would take a long time to revamp the entire system. But the generic cialis canadian results of the study could be applied to make improvements to the way roads are repaired and maintained, leading to http://www.bsd-berlin.de/buying-real-cialis-without-prescription a better road system over time.

Why can't intelligent tyres be designed which automatically compensate for this effect? It would be a heck of a lot cheaper and more environmentally friendly.
written by Fencerdave, May 29, 2012
The energy required to drive up a slope is due to the conversion into gravitational potential energy. The road is not pushing the cars up any further from the earth after a drive and they are not gaining any Gravitational potential from the road-tire interaction, it stands to logic that this is an entirely invalid argument.
It would be both more correct and much easier to say that the 'softness' of the road impacts the wow)) get viagra prescription energy output of online us cialis the car either through friction with the tires or by increasing the internal friction of the engine.
Either way, the frictional loss of energy is the real reason why energy (and thus efficiency) is being lost, as it is given off as heat.

In the midwest and canadian healthcare west, high winds often eat my lunch and dinner. My fuel milage can drop from 6.5mpg to http://cngnewengland.com/free-viagra-sample less than 4mpg during high cross winds or head winds. Planting trees along side the interstates would reduce these winds and save a lot more fuel than better tires or harder pavement.

Kreskin (George Joseph Kresge, Jr., 1935- ) Mentalist Kreskin, most of whose act was taken from the work of Joseph Dunninger, has trod the thin line between conjuror and psychic. He often firmly denies that his tricks are of a psychic origin, then the next moment seems to imply that they are. In a recent book, Secrets of the Amazing Kreskin, he claimed that well-known effects in the conjuring trade are actually accomplished by unknown means:
Some day, hopefully soon, researchers will be able to identify the force that is at play when, for example, I am able to tell a total stranger the number on his Social Security card or predict in advance, in writing, the headline on next week's newspaper.
This implies that "researchers" are in some way concerned with his performances as matters of scientific interest. For someone so accomplished as an artist, it is puzzling why Mr. Kreskin insists on these small peccadillos.

How can I purchase fruit to feed my caterpillars?
Caterpillars are crazy for fruit, and they need a lot of it to help them fulfill their butterfly-y destiny. If you want to speed things along and buy some fruit, rather than playing through all the levels to collect it, you can do that once you've played past level 1-3. At that point, you'll get a tutorial prompt to click on the butterfly button, which will magically appear in the top right corner of the screen. To access the fruit store, click on the butterfly button and once that screen has loaded you can then click on the Bank button. That's going to open your fruit bank, which shows you how many of each fruit you have in inventory. To buy a piece of fruit, tap on the fruit you want to buy (let's say in this case, it's a kiwi) and tap the buy button. If you need more coins, those are also available via in-app purchase in the coin store. There's a coin store button at the top of the Bank screen, Power-up screen and the title screen, which is what you see when you first log into the game. At the top of the bank screen there's a Coin button on the upper right part of the screen which displays your current coin balance.
How can I purchase power-ups?
Good question! Because, let's face it, power-ups are AWESOME! So here's how you get 'em. Once you've played past level 1-6 in you'll get a tutorial prompt to visit the Power-Up Store. There is a coin button on the upper right side of the screen, which displays your current coin balance. Click on that button if you need more coins via In-App Purchase.
Are you guys making more levels for Little Chomp?
Not right now, but we'd love to someday. As much as we love Little Chomp, it was kind of our starter pancake. As a fledgling indie company, we knew how to make a great game, we just didn't know how to market it effectively so we made a lot of mistakes our first time out and poor Little Chomp payed the price for it. That said, if you want to see more levels, please tell 100,000 of your closest friends to go out and buy Little Chomp and then maybe we can consider it. Short of that, we need to focus our efforts on creating some new games that will be just as great as Little Chomp, maybe even greater! Follow us on Facebook or Twitter to hear about our new titles in development.

The University of North Carolina is doing something this spring that may be developing into a trend among other college football teams in the Southeast.
It's a terrific idea, especially from a recruiting standpoint, by UNC first-year coach Larry Fedora.
The Tar Heels have moved one of their spring practices to an off-campus location – 135 miles away to the fertile recruiting grounds of Charlotte. Thursday's open scrimmage will be held at Mallard Creek High School – and it's perfectly legal within NCAA rules (more on that at the bottom). UVA coach Mike London has been doing this for two years, and the Cavaliers have practices at three different off-campus sites this spring, according to CavalierInsider.
There are three reasons we love this idea: It provides a lot of exposure for the Tar Heels to their fans in the state's largest city, it gives an otherwise boring spring practice a special feel to the players like a "road game" and – most importantly – it will reap tremendous long-term recruiting benefits.
"It was something we've done in the past; When I was at Southern Miss, we had two scrimmages that we went on the road to other parts of that state … so it was natural to do it here and do it at Charlotte," Fedora told the AJC.
"We have such a tremendous fan base there, and this enables to get in front of our fans and gives them the opportunity to see how hard these guys are working during spring ball. Also, of course, it enables all the high school students in that area to be able to come out and watch a scrimmage."
We're thinking a few of those high school students may turn out to be blue-chip football prospects. That's a big reason why Fedora pinpointed Charlotte with this innovation.
"There's obviously a lot of great players in that area,' Fedora said. "And you know, this gives them another opportunity to see us. You know, they may not be able to get down and see a spring practice because of school, spring breaks, and those kinds of things.
"This enables them to come over and watch a practice, see how we're doing, and they can see the new Carolina way."
What has been the general reaction from UNC recruiting targets about the innovative spring practice? "I think they are excited about us coming up there and being in their area … them having the opportunity to come over," Fedora said. "Now when they come, we can't talk to them because we are off-campus. But they are able to watch our practice and see what we do."
Even North Carolina's current players like this idea. "The way we treat it is almost like a road game," Fedora said. "You know, get on the bus and you go to a different location, you suit up, and you have to go out and play. And we really try to treat it like a road game, as far as our mentality. It gives our players another opportunity to do something different."
Here's the NCAA bylaw which permits an off-campus practice:
"Expenses may be paid for practice sessions only if they are associated with an away-from home contest or conducted at a site located within the member institution's state or, if outside that state, no more than 100 miles from the institution's campus." [D] (Revised: 1/10/05)
Why is UGA not having a spring scrimmage in Atlanta? Or Auburn? There's not a bigger hotbed of talent in the Southeast than Atlanta and Miami. Is is too late for UGA to move the rest of its spring practices, beginning tomorrow, 35 miles down the road to Grayson High School (um, Robert Nkemdiche)? That's one of the first things I thought about when hearing about UNC-to-Charlotte. Why not? Here's why: The SEC has a policy against off-campus practices during the spring, according to SEC spokesman Charles Bloom:
The SEC limits spring practices and games to being conducted at on campus facilities. This policy has been established in a long-standing Commissioners Regulation, which is more restrictive than the NCAA rule permitting off-campus practices.
What about the ACC? They go by the NCAA rule, per ACC spokesman Mike Finn:
The ACC does not have a more restrictive rule on this than does the NCAA (we actually do not have a rule on this at all). So the NCAA rule, which you listed, would be what our schools would go by.
Think of all the possibilities:
Here's where it gets more interesting, I think. Remember when Coach K (or was it Dean Smith?) had that brilliant recruiting tactic of signing a player from far away and then trying to schedule a non-conference game against a team close to that player's hometown? I seem to remember Duke playing Buffalo or another New York college near Christian Laettner's hometown of Buffalo, N.Y.
Imagine being able to do that in football? If I'm Jimbo Fisher, I get on the phone with somebody like Laremy Tunsil of Lake City, Fla. – he's the No. 1-ranked offensive tackle in the nation, according to Rivals. Lake City is 100 miles away from Florida State. The conversation with Laremy goes something like this: "Laremy, do you know how important you are to our football program? So important that we want to have one of our spring practices at your high school after you sign here. That's right, we're going to bring our entire football program to Columbia High School in Lake City, Fla. Your parents and relatives, along with all of your teachers and coaches, will be able to just drive down the street to watch you play. That's how important you are to us. I bet Florida won't do that for you, will they? How about Georgia? No sir. Go ahead and ask them. But we will make it happen because that's how important you are to us." [Note: We're using Tunsil for demonstrative purposes only]
Or what if Keith Marshall or Todd Gurley would've been coming out next year? Do you think UNC – which was a serious contender for both until the looming NCAA sanctions – might have scheduled a spring scrimmage at their high schools or close nearby? We would've.
Can you see the recruiting possibilities here? If it's permissible within Pac 12 rules, we can see Lane Kiffin scheduling all of his future spring practices at the high school or nearby facility of a top California recruit.
What are your thoughts? Please post below.

Most of the great players from North Carolina decide to not play for University of North Carolina because they are in the ACC. Great players know their exposure will be greater and more rewarding for them if they go to an SEC team. Also they have been noted more for their great Basketball teams not football. A lot of their players getting caught with an agent hasn't helped any. When a team is on probation or restrictions most of the 4 and 5 star recruits are going to another school on that knowledge alone. Give North Carolina a few more years and they will get back to about as good as they can get but they still have to live with the fact that they are in the ACC.
April 4th, 2012
4:39 am
It's a good gimmick to take the spring practice on the road but what do you do about teams like Auburn or Florida State. If the SEC changed their rule and allowed off campus practice then in order to compete with Auburn and Florida State taking the road show to south Georgia or west Georgia then UGA would have to do the same and that could mean up to a 4 hour bus drive so for me I hope the SEC keeps the practice to on campus practices only. The ACC could take advantage of the ACC and NCAA rules by going to the city of Thomasville or Valdosta. That would definitely give Florida State an advantage in recruiting south Georgia.
April 4th, 2012
4:39 am
The University of Virginia and head coach Mike London was the first school to take spring practices on the road 3 years ago. This year they have 3 practices in different parts of the state.
April 4th, 2012
5:34 am
UGA coud have it at the Clarke County Probation office so all of the players could participate.
April 4th, 2012

UGA should hold a scrimmage at Grant Field just to show the NERDS what their pitiful 'stadium' would look like at full capacity.
April 4th, 2012
6:04 am
You are becoming part of the problem. The tail does not wag the dog. Are you stupid enough to think that an entire university should kowtow to the whims of an 18 year old kid by having spring practice in the kid's hometown?
This should be a place for you to write about the news that goes on in recruiting. Your continued interjections and editorializations sound like a 13 year old kid at the lunch table with his buddies. It is embarrasssing.
April 4th, 2012
6:11 am
Would other parts of the State even allow CPJ & GT to do this, especially after his elitist , "go back to your Wal-Mart jobs" comment?
Add in the Junior Gnonkonde snafu plus the situation with the scholly getting pulled from the Lineman that visited FSU last yr. and I'm not so sure the rest of the State of Ga. will even welcome GT & CPJ.
Your HC needs to be a consensus builder and bridge builder to recruit well in your home state, not a bridge burner.

UGA should have one in the ATL area every year and one in another part of the state like Columbus,Valdosta,Camden County,etc.They draw from Alabama,The Panhandle,and Jax. in addition to the instate kids and that would really jack those Dawg Fans up
April 4th, 2012
6:17 am
While Miami makes sense for FSU, FSU has ability to hit Valdosta even harder with the 100 mile clause. To the Dawg, we already kill it in south Georgia. Lowndes had been Nole territory for a few years before JHC. That would be a great school for FSU to practice at.
FSU already does extremely well in south Florida, but a few spots I can think of around FL that'd make sense: First Coast in Jax, St Thomas Aquinas (if their coaches allowed it), and any number of Miami schools. Fortunately, Miami is a dumpster fire filled with turds, so FSU and UF will continue to get theirs in south Florida.
April 4th, 2012
6:19 am
I hate to tell you guys this, but South Georgia is like in another state down here. Florida, S.C., Fla. St. and Auburn already Recruit us heavy. Sometimes it seems to forget this part of the state on a regular basis. A practice down here may be a long trip, but that caravan would be huge news through middle and south GA…

If this writer had only done an ounce of research on his story, he would have found that Miami has had its last two scrimmages in Fort Myers and Hialeah. The U is re-building its fence around the so-called "state of Miami," and will leave the mouth breathing, inbreed, jort wearers of UF and FSU to find their own recruiting grounds.
April 4th, 2012

He should schedule one Saturday practice in Macon and one Saturday in another spot that rotates each year. In state EXPOSURE is the key.
April 4th, 2012
7:12 am
A Cane blogger said the team at Ft Myers looked like a 3-4 win team. Not an FSU or UF guy, but a UM guy.
Have fun recruiting between the dumpster fire team and the scholarship cuts. Don't forget your boy Golden is trying to change the off campus culture. This isn't the B1G. People aren't going to show up at your rent-a-stadium to watch losing teams the next 3 years. And that means no money. Have fun retaining any staff outside of Golden on a shoestring budget with no ticket revenue, low TV revenue, and no booster support.
Miami is wide open. You can't recruit on 5 rings forever. Don't forget, when Golden was at Temple, they were the runaway big spenders in a low-dollar conference. Big fish, small pond. His talent was infinitely better than most of competition, and he performed extremely poorly against anyone but lowly MAC competition.
But keep thinking there's a wall around Miami, and that Golden will lead you to more than 7 wins in the next 5 years.

North Carolina and Miami to the SEC EAST DIVISION, Missouri back to the WEST
10 Conference Games a Year, 7 Division, ( 3 Outside Division – 2 Rotating and 1 Annual Given.)
Do not complain about to tough of a schedule, will hurt NCG opportunities, the true fans of SEC schools would love to see SEC football Games Each Week for the Money!!!!
SEC would still dominate the National Championship Game and control TV Purse's

WnE…….What is the Junior Gnonkonde snafu? I guess I missed that item! Thanks
April 4th, 2012
8:13 am
CANEGUY is right…
In the 80's and early 90's you could not come into the "State of Miami" (basically everything south of I-4) and take a top recruit away from UM. Practicing in Fort Myers is a step in trying to take that concept back.
What MC also doesn't realize about Miami is that, unlike Atlanta, most of the top billed recruits actually play HS football IN MIAMI. At high schools like Northwestern, Carol City, Central, Norland, Booker T. Washington, Southridge, Edison, Jackson, Killian…not to mention quality private schools like Belen Jesuit, Gulliver Prep, and Pace.
While there may be stud recruits playing in Broward or Palm Beach counties…the concentration is certainly not there like it is in Miami-Dade county.
April 4th, 2012
8:23 am
"Add in the Junior Gnonkonde snafu plus the situation with the scholly getting pulled from the Lineman that visited FSU last yr. and I'm not so sure the rest of the State of Ga. will even welcome GT & CPJ."
The JG situation was a kid failing to meet a promised ACT/SAT score by a margin large enough that it was not worth the risk. That falls on JG and his coach as much as anyone.
Get your story straight about Tre Jackson. He had his scholarship pulled not because he visited FSU while committed to Tech, but because he did it behind CPJ's back. If a kid isn't going to be honest with you before he even signs…
April 4th, 2012
8:35 am
Dean Smith is the coach who, when getting a player outside of the normal ACC footprint, would always schedule a game close to the player's hometown. Please don't ever get Coach Smith mixed up with Coach K.

I find it ironic that Fedora is having a practice at Mallard Creek HS since his top player from Mallard Creek, QB Marquise Williams, was recruited by Butch Davis and may not fit Fedora's offense. Fedora is going after dual threat QBs and has already trumpeted a signing out of GA as the QB of the future.
If Fedora really wanted to make a splash he should have driven south an extra 20 miles and had his practice at Independence or Butler.

The NCAA sanctions? Man they were old news when Todd and Keith made their choice. I'm sure UGA recruiting had nothing to do with them not signing with North Carolina… pft. I see your back to poking the dawg again.
UGA is close enough to ATL. It wouldn't be worth the logistics to pick up everything and move. And moving a basketball team isn't quite the same as moving a football team.

MIchael, if I didn't know better, I would swear Dabo Swinney is paying you to mention him and Clemson in as many artcles as possible. Between re-visiting his staged rant, to his "ground-breaking" idea of spring scrimmage games against another school to suggesting his team hold scrimmages in Columbia and Fort Mill, SC, it seems everytime I go to ajc.com and see your recruiting section, you continue with your love affair of Dabo.
Enough gratuitous coverage of the joke of Pickens County!

There you go again with the academic BS regards Junior G. Youbare wrong. His GT scholarship offer was withdrawn because the Asst Coach, Spencer, made multiple "illegal" contacts in violation of NCAA rules. GT backed off to avoid possible sanctions, the NCAA frowns on programs on probation committing violations. His ACT or SAT scores got him in at UNC, GT would have taken him.
Carvell the scenario you put forth regarding FSU and Tunsil may be a violation. It is an obvious inducement with a promise which has financial implications. I don't care for the idea of moving practices, it reeks of a cheap Carnival atmosphere. College football is about much more, it's a campus, college life, students, atmosphere.

I liken the "U" to UNLV basketball when Tarkanian was there. Soared to the top with the right coach, but faded fast back into mediocrity. A small private school that can't sell out it's stadium in the second larget city in the southeast is going to dominate again with a "mid-major" type coach? I think not. Yes, they will always get talent because of where they are located, but it takes more than just raw talent to win big and consistently. Your day in the sun is over.

You people (UGA fans) use phrases and terms, like "fencing in" our recruits, and "locking down" the borders over yonder in dear old Georgia, We have instilled "safe coaches" and pathways for these kids to come out from all that Peach puff bondage and enjoy freedom and success in the land of opportunity called Alabama.
No child should have to serve time in the Clarke County Penal colony…

Try filling your stadium for the spring game. That impresses recruits, but not very gimmicky which seems to play well in Jawja and other parts of the country. RT and see you at A Day next wkend.

Paul in NH, I'm afraid you are too far away to keep up
w/UNC. Marquise Williams fits better in Fedora's offense than in BD 's. MW was top ten dual threatQB in country. Articles have been written about him thriving in spread. And, Mallard Crekk is one of best programs in state.

What's with this love affair you have with Dumbo Swinney? You're making reference to Dumbo every other day like he's God's gift to coaching. Last time I looked he and climpson were God's gift to WVU!

Beast from the East…
The Canes sold out the Orange Bowl (almost 80K) regularly and perennially scheduled tough opponents (Oklahoma, Notre Dame, etc…) while it was making itself a name. The city was behind them…but their baggage has caught up to them. They have every resource imaginable to be dominant once again if they can make better coaching hires that Larry Coker and Randy Shannon…

Butch Davis was/is a great recruiter but there is some doubt how he was able to get this many great players to NC in addition the W's &L's don't match the talent. UNC will be a team to watch in the coming years after they get past the NCAA issues. If a coach can win at So Miss then he should be able to win at UNC. You have to give these coaches credit for trying to get their teams up on page one.

FL Jacket,
I call BS. I remember going to the Orange Bowl in the 80's and half the stadium was Gator fans. The "U" only sold out when the opposing team's fans came in droves. How many do they have for home games versus Duke, Wake Forest, etc? Look it up and get back to me.

It is estimated that one in 10 U.S. citizens now owns a tablet or e-reader, and the constant innovations made by brands such as Amazon, Sony and Apple are helping to change the way in which users conduct their everyday activities. The benefits that these tools provide to users are far reaching, and can even help individuals to save money and budget their finances effectively. So, how exactly are tablets and e-readers able to achieve this, and how much money could they save you through consistent use?
TUTORIAL: Budgeting Basics
Budgeting Apps: How the iPad Can Help You Manage Your Finances
Interestingly, e-reader ownership has declined amongst U.S. adults since May 2011, but the sales of tablets have remained consistently high in this time. This is largely due to the additional features that products like the iPad boast as opposed to standard e-reader models. One of the most productive features of tablets is the range of free or inexpensive apps they offer. These apps can serve any number of practical purposes.
The iPad has a collection of budgeting apps that can assist you in creating and managing an effective personal budget. As an example, "Budgets for iPad" is one of the most popular free apps on the Apple tablet, thanks largely to its use of high resolution graphics and charts to display your incomings, outgoings and overall financial position. Not only this, but it boasts a tool that allows you to track monthly payments and performance in terms of saving and creating disposable income. (If you're interested in investing in companies that create tablets and e-readers? Read A Primer On Investing In The Tech Industry.)
Books Vs. E-Books: The Battle Between Old and New
The traditional publishing model has undergone something of an overhaul since the turn of the century, with the result that many media establishments and authors are looking to publish their products online to engage as large a reader base as possible. Creating e-books serves a far greater purpose than reaching a global audience. It also allows publishing firms to save valuable money on the costs of printing and establishing a product.
Apps and Mobility: A Single Multi-Purpose Device for the Consumer
While some e-readers may be fairly limited and single purpose products, tablets like the iPad and Kindle Fire boast far more uses to occupy their wide consumer base. In fact, the innovative and constantly evolving range of ever affordable apps offered by Apple and Amazon have turned their products into multi-purpose alternatives to the traditional laptop, and helped to create the ultimate in mobile media devices.
While smartphones offer something similar, they are not as effective as a replacement for the personal computer. Smartphones have smaller screens and less well-defined resolution, which makes viewing and sharing images as challenging as negotiating the devices' interface, while the neat design of most contemporary tablets allows users to access, view and share online files with ease. So, by providing consumers with a multi-purpose tool and range of interactive features, they need no longer invest vast fortunes in purchasing more than one digital media device.
The Bottom Line
Tablets and e-readers boast the potential to save you money as a consumer. They are revolutionizing the day-to-day functions of citizens across the globe. As long as you are willing to make an initial financial outlay to purchase the iPad, Kindle Fire or similar product, then significant financial savings are sure to follow.

I can has cat show?
January 10, 2008 · 3 Comments
You've always wanted to know what I really do at weekends? Here's a great little interview on Geek Entertainment TV that was filmed at a local cat show... My wife is one of the judges shown in the opening sequence and, yes, I know everyone they interview and most of the cats they feature as well :)
3 responses so far ↓
Halp! ;)
Cool! Currently wondering where the hell my cat (Mel Gibson) as the temperature starts to soar to 34o C.
Happy to report Mel Gibson is home safe as temperature soared to 36o C (getting close to 100o F)!
On my bed having a snooze. Some beautiful "halp" cats in that video!

Our Dean
Our program gives students the skills they need to create value in the new millennium by building on our strengths in the core areas of business. We offer an MBA with majors in accounting, finance, general management, human resource management, and marketing. Our MBA curriculum is the only one in the world that requires core coursework in business ethics, social entrepreneurship, and workplace spirituality. We also offer a BS with majors in accounting, finance, political economy, business and society, and marketing and a BA in management. A customized major program lets a student design a tailor-made curriculum building on our offerings and, where appropriate, those of other schools on campus.
Our Executive Education program offers the La Sierra MBA to students throughout the region—either at or near their workplaces. And it also delivers the Integrated MBA program, which allows a student with only an associate degree or the equivalent to earn a BA and an MBA in only four years.
The School of Business is home to a newly opened Center for Philanthropy, the only one of its kind in the Inland Empire. The Center, headed by nationally recognized philanthropic fundraiser James L. Erickson, is already equipping area non-profits to respond effectively to economic challenges by building lasting relationships with supporters.
We are proud of a student-friendly culture marked by responsiveness and flexibility: faculty members, administrators, and staff members try to meet student needs quickly, fairly, and sensitively. The School of Business faculty is made up of capable professionals, frequently with significant outside-the-classroom experience as consultants, researchers, or both. And the entire School of Business team is committed to providing students with educational experiences that challenge them to make a tangible difference in the world, that stimulate their minds and hearts, enlarge their imaginations, and help them to build lasting friendships. By organizing social entrepreneurial ventures, helping people in need, and conducting community education programs, our students can develop empathy and deepen their understanding of the real-world significance of their studies. We promise our students an extraordinary preparation for responsible servant- leadership in business, government, and the nonprofit sector.
The Zapara School of Business is home to La Sierra University's award-winning Enactus (formerly SIFE) team. La Sierra's Enactus students have won an unprecedented two World Cup and four international championships in Enactus' demanding annual competition, in which team performance is judged by top executives from major national and global corporations.
To house our growing programs, the Tom and Vi Zapara School of Business entered the 2013 academic year in its new home at the front of the La Sierra University campus. With room for 750 full-time students and thirty faculty members, as well as a 400-seat conference center that to serve the entire Inland region, the new building is a showcase of our exciting vision and provide a stimulating environment in which teaching and scholarship can take place.
Expressing our commitment to service by emphasizing social entrepreneurship, workplace spirituality, and ethics, we can make a real difference in the world. We hope you'll join us.

My ever loving dog Bruno
Yesterday you were with us with your strong feet
Today you no more with us as heaven called you
It broke our hearts into two and we're feeling so blue
We have just lost him the pain is hard to bear
What a wonderful dog he was and so vigilant at our house
His lifted ears, swelling chest, bright eyes made him so smart dog
His barking voice echoed all over and made fear people to try to get in our house illegally.
He was sometimes calm and sometimes violent then listened to us dearly
He was a great watch dog we ever had in our house
He was a part of our family and kept us happy all the time
He was very fond of my children and love to play with them at any time
Although, he was an animal as "They say man's best friend"
He had a very an understanding soul, the way he protected us
His loss has brought my wife and sons to tears, cannot bear the sad feeling
Dogs are lovely gift from God to the human as faithful animals for us to love
I miss my loving dog Bruno and my tears will not stop for him
Until it's my time to see him heaven.

This section is based on an article in Wikipedia.
Claremont is a village in the northern, more rural, part of Pickering Township, located 20 km NW of Oshawa and about 55 km northeast of downtown Toronto. Around 50 to 70% of the land area around Claremont is forested, although there is farmland closer to the village. Until the establishment of regional government in 1974, the municipal offices of the former Township of Pickering were located in Claremont. It has a branch railway line which previously carried passenger traffic, but currently only carries freight.
The whole of the former County of Ontario was located in York County prior to 1852.
For more information, see the EN Wikipedia article Claremont, Ontario.
Research Tips
The primary source for basic documents (vital statistics, land records, wills) for people who lived in the Province of Ontario is the Archives of Ontario, 134 Ian Macdonald Blvd, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M7A 2C5.
Early Records
Civil registration did not begin in the province until 1869. Before then there may be church records of baptisms and burials. For the most part these are still held by the denomination who recorded them. Copies of marriage records made pre-1869 had to be sent by individual clergymen to the registrar of the county in which the marriage took place. These marriage records are available through Ontario Archives, on micorfilm through LDS libraries, and on paid and unpaid websites, but because they were copied at the registrars' offices, they cannot be considered a primary source.
Vital Records after 1869
Birth, marriage and death registrations are not open to the public until a specific number of years after the event occurred. Births to 1914 are now available [October 2012]; dates for marriages and deaths are later. Birth and death registration was not universally carried out in the early years after its adoption. Deaths were more apt to be reported than births for several years. The more rural the area, the less likely it would be that these happenings were reported to the authorities.
Land Records and Wills
Information on how to access land records and wills is best sought on the Archives of Ontario website. An ancestor's land holding might be found on Canadian County Atlas Digital Project if he was in occupancy circa 1878.
Association for the Preservation of Ontario Land Registry Office Documents (APOLROD). A list of Land Registry Offices for all Counties of Ontario.
The original censuses are in the hands of Library and Archives Canada. All of the original census (1851-1911) images are online with the exception of that for 1861. Not all of them are indexed. Later censuses are not yet available. Census divisions were redrawn as the population increased and more land was inhabited.

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson broke up in the worst way possible back in 2012 when Stewart was busted cheating on Pattinson with the director of her film, Snow White and the Huntsman, Rupert Sanders.
The couple, or rather ex couple, have since made a point of avoiding each other. Most recently they were both at Coachella, but reports have it that Rob hung out with Katy Perry the whole time K-Stew made a point to keep her distance from the friendly duo.
AS far as their dating life goes they have both moved on since the split. Rob is currently dating Imogen Ker while Kristen has been enjoying the dating scene.
But………with the Cannes Film Festival approaching is a reunion on the cards? The actors have both rented villas near each other on the Cote d'Azur, but reports have it that K-Stew is NOT looking forward to a chance meeting with her ex. Some tabloids are reporting that the starlet is actually DREADING bumping into Rob. Well folks, the Cannes Film Festival is right around the corner so watch this space…
LEAVE A COMMENT…What would you like to see in a Rob/Kristen Reunion?

Lynyrd Skynyrd has had to postpone another concert as guitarist Gary Rossington tries to bounce back from an abdominal infection. The southern rock legends announced on their official Facebook page that their planned show this Saturday at Coushatta Casino Resort in Kinder, Louisiana, has been shelved.
The message reads, "Gary is doing well, but will be unable to perform this weekend while he recovers from his illness. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused the fans and promoters. Lynyrd Skynyrd looks forward to touring and performing in the near future." A post on the casino's website , meanwhile, reports that the guitarist has specifically been suffering from "a lower tract infection and a bout of pneumonia." It also reveals that the band already has scheduled a June 8 makeup date, with tickets for that show going on sale on April 19.
Rossington reportedly was hospitalized near his home in Jackson, Mississippi, last week, which forced the band to cancel its February 15 and 16 concerts at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Biloxi, Mississippi. The 61-year-old musician will have a few weeks to rest up before the next Skynyrd's next scheduled performance -- a March 15 show at the Congress Theatre in Chicago.

The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) designates the first full week of October as Mental Illness Awareness Week, and the Tuesday of that week as the National Day of Prayer for Mental Illness Recovery and Understanding. The date this year is Tuesday, October 5 [1]. (pdf)
NAMI is a grassroots advocacy organization with dozens of North Carolina affiliate groups, and it has a healthy respect for the role of faith communities in supporting the mentally ill. Clergy outnumber psychiatrists 10 to 1 in the United States, and clergy are more equitably distributed among the population than health professionals. Congregations are in a unique position to replace misinformation, blame, fear and prejudice with truth and love. Families affected by mental illness are challenged by serious faith questions, and need the support of educated faith communities. For mental health counselors, understanding the faith orientation of a person living with mental illness can often be a key to healing and recovery.
NAMI's website [2] has a wealth of prayer and liturgical resources, as well as suggested readings and creative ideas for congregational responses to Mental Illness Awareness Week.
Shalom y'all,
