Day 22 Reviews
day two of a week with fall out boy
"I'm awake!" I say, sitting bolt upright, looking to the door seeing Patrick standing at the door
"Be downstairs in 10 minutes ready to go"
I nod and roll out of bed stumbling over to my bag pulling out whatever clothing my hands landed on, and a nice warm hoodie (I don't care if it's warm in LA I am ALWAYS cold in the mornings)
I stumbled down the stairs with my bag to find Patrick and Pete sitting in the kitchen, Pete staring at his cup of coffee, and Patrick muttering something to him I couldn't here
"Ahh here she is, sorry to wake you up so harshly, but we have places to go people to see"
"Nah I don't mind."
"Well let's get going then, later Pete"
"Bye Pete"
"Later trick, see you soon Megan"
We made our way out the front and into Patrick's car
"So what's the plan for today?"
"Well, this morning Starbucks, then we have to go shopping as lame as that is, then we are going into the studio to work with cobra Starship on their new album"
"Oh wow awesome! What are we shopping for?"
"Stuff I need for tour, toiletries and pyjamas"
"Ha-ha cool"
10 minutes later and we were walking out of Starbucks, me with a steaming cup of hot chocolate
"Mmmmmmmmm I'm good for the rest of the day now."
"It doesn't take much to make you happy does it?"
"I'm a hot chocolate addict. It's my only vice. The way to my heart is a good hot chocolate"
"Ha-ha well, that's original"
"Oh shush, let's go shopping" I say with a smile.
"Okay, now I just want to warn you, I am the most indecisive person alive, it takes me a while to pick anything out while shopping"
"It's okay I'm like that too"
Two hour of shopping later we headed into the small studio. To say I was excited was an understatement. I am a huge cobra fan
"Okay so the others aren't due here for half an hour, but there are a few things I want to fiddle with first" Patrick says walking into the small room we'd be spending the rest of the day in
"Okay cool" I say sitting on the squishy couch against one of the walls
"The only good thing about cobra is, they are always perfectly on time, because Vicky would kick their asses if they were so much as 5 minutes late without a good reason"
"Ha-ha awesome"
Patrick and I chatted as he worked till we were interrupted by the door opening
"Hey trickmister, I am here"
"Hey Gabe, oh Gabe this is Megan, Megan Gabe"
"Hi" I say smiling up at the madlycrazilyhot man in front of me
"Nice to meet you Megan. I don't mean to be true, but why are you here?"
"No it's okay; I won a dorky competition to fallow fall out boy around for a week. Today I get to tag along with Patrick"
"Ahh makes sense"
"I told you about this yesterday anyway Gabe. I told all of you she'd be here"
"You did?" Gabe asked looking very surprised by the news
The door opened against his time the rest of the band poured in the door
"Hello sir Patrick" Ryland greets.
"Hey everyone, this is Megan, Megan this is everyone"
"Uhh hi" I say awkwardly as four pairs of eyes turn to me
A chorus of hellos broke out making me feel at ease as Gabe sat on the couch next to me and the others took seats around the room
"Okay guys, today I really want to get this song done."
The rest of the day and night was spent watching as individual members got up to record their parts, sitting around joking and laughing with the others and playing Uno to pass some time
"So Megan where are you from?"
"Well until this week I lived in Australia, and as of next week I live in New York"
"Oh cool. We live in New York, we can totally hang out. Where abouts are you living there"
"Honestly I have no clue, two of my friends are already there and I'm moving in with them, I should probably find out where we are living"
"Yeh that could be handy"
As if on cue my phone starts ringing
"Speak of the devil
Hey yeh it's cool,
Weird question, what's our address.
Mm thanks, yeh I shall call back alter ay dude?
I shall try
"Apparently I live on the 17th floor at 24 THE Street"
"Whoa no shit! I live there too. We're totally neighbours!"
"Awesome! I know now where to go when I need tomorrow a cup of sugar"
"See that's you presuming I actually have food in my apartment."
"Ha-ha okay, I'll come to you if I need help throwing a party"
"Now that's my expertise"
Before long the day was over and we were heading back to Patrick's place (which was just as impressive as Pete's).
"I hope today wasn't too boring for you."
"No it was fun! I mean how many people can say they got to hang out not only with you, but all of cobra while you were working on their new album; it was seriously an awesome day"
"You sure?"
"Yeh relax Patrick I had great day"
"Oh good. I didn't want to be the one who you spent the day being bored with"
"Relax Patrick, it was all good"
"Okay, so I was thinking toasted sandwiches for dinner. Sound good?"
"Brilliant. I'm just going to go call my friend, I promised Id ring her tonight"
"Sure, I shall get started on diner"
M: hey Paigey
P: hey Megan! How was your day today? And why did you want our address?"
M: well you see today I spent with Patrick, mainly in the studio with cobra Starship, and I was talking to Gabe and he wanted to know where abouts we are living, turns out, he lives in the same building on the same floor
P: no way, Gabe Saporta is our neighbour?!
M: yep. Anyways I better go, Patrick's making dinner and I'm getting hungry
P: okay bye bye
I walk back into the kitchen to see Patrick placing two sandwiches on plates
"Mm smells good"
"Hopefully it tastes good too"
After dinner we ended up sitting on the couch watching TV. There were only repeats on, but neither of us cared until law and order came on
"Oh crap not this episode, let's change the channel" Patrick aid fumbling for ht remote
"No I love this episode!"
"But I suck in it"
"No you're adorable. Seriously, you're really good in it"
"Fine you can watch it. I'm going to bed. Oh and be prepared to be up early, because I'm dropping you at Joe's place at 7am"
"Uhh I might hit the hay too then"
We got up turning off the TV and I fell into Patrick's guest room and into an instant slumber

Of the top of my head I could think of several valid archtypes
Slayer of course but that could have different "specs"
Witches Good or Evil
The Special Forces Types that Riley was on
Vamps themselves
Golem Pets
The unverse of Buffy and Angel is very vast and there is a lot more to draw from than is on the surface.
Wolfram and Heart could be an evil faction capital city type of place
and the Slayer's Retreat in room sort of the same
Maps could be large city districts
It wouldn't need to be Oh lets make a bunch of slayers. Racial and/or Organizational based Archtypes for classes with specs for diversity. Gear definately applies magic/scientific relics etc.
The prob is it would need to be turbine (I checked again BTVS was licensed to upn not sold.) so essentially it would just be a reskin of CO.

We tried this place for delivery at work, they came pretty quick, but the food was horrible and inconsistent. The wings were nasty, and the sides were too. We decided to give them another chance maybe 6 months later and the food was worse. I will never order from here again, my 9 year old can make better tasting food.
Posted by Carrie on 05/12/2010
When they finally get their order right, the food is good. I just don't understand why they can't follow the order. Is it really that hard to read and write? I was recently told that their screw-up was worth an 89 cent credit. Talk about atrocious customer service. After being a customer for the past four years, all of my friends and I are boycotting Phoebe's.
Posted by Anonymous on 02/04/2010
I order from Phoebe's at least once every 2 weeks. The mac and cheese is the best I've ever had. Great pork ribs and pulled pork too. I get the whole rotisserie bird and usually eat it for lunch over the course of the week and I'm always impressed by how moist it stays after microwaving it. Don't know what I'll do without Phoebe's if I ever move out of the city.
Posted by Anonymous on 12/11/2008
Unusual but excellent mac and cheese. Surprisingly good chicken. Pretty tasty pork ribs. Cornbread's only so-so, as are the beef ribs. Delivery's fast enough. Prices are a little high for what you get, but not so high as to be a dealbreaker. All in all, definitely worth a shot.
Posted by Chris on 07/05/2008
Ok, we checked out the new location in Manayunk...paid about $25.00.....um, I hated it. I got the rib sandwhich...I got fatty ribs with two pieces of white bread....how is that a sandwhich? The mac and cheese was actually good but I couldn't eat the ribs....would not recommend. :(
Posted by Anonymous on 02/04/2008
This is a good spot for a quick meal. The ribs are the best I've had in the city and the mac n cheese has yet to be beat.
Posted by penn student on 01/31/2008
Wings: skin was soggy and meat was dry. dont know how they managed that. It wasn't burned like other reviews, but every other wing was so overcooked the meat was actually hard. Beef ribs: poor. very little meat and lots of gristle. Pork ribs: pork ribs were actually very good. sauce was just ok, but the ribs were very tender. Only thing i liked about the place. Cornbread was not very good. Beans were average and cole slaw not very good. I will not order from here ever again

For those of you wondering what's going on, The Simple Dollar's traffic has been escalating like crazy since its inception and it finally got to be too popular for my hosting plan to handle, resulting in the site's severe downtime in the last 18 hours or so. I have worked out a temporary solution so that you can see almost all of the content, but things aren't 100% at the moment. Anyway, while I work out other arrangements, please bear with me. I hope to have The Simple Dollar up and going just like it was before very long. If you would be willing to sponsor The Simple Dollar on a dedicated hosting solution (or have other suggestions), please send proposals to trent at thesimpledollar dot com. Again, my apologies for the downtime.
Please bear with me…
MidnightUT says:
In what way was your plan not able to keep up?
Were you running out of bandwidth? or was it a CPU utilization issue?
Trent says:
CPU. I seem to be very tightly capped in that regard.
david says:
I guess you could be getting no traffic at all, which would probably be worse. But I hope you get things running smoothly soon. Good luck!
MidnightUT says:
I had noticed you site being pretty slow for the last week or so.
I've been thinking of starting my own blog, although I'm planning on hosting it off my own box as its just for my own personal use.
In any case I've had several people point me towards Dreamhost. Do they say how much is too much? It irritates me that all these hosting companies promise you x number of TBs of transfer, but they don't even allow enough CPU usage to ever use that bandwidth, and they neglect to tell you this. Sorry for the rant, but this practice just really bothers me, and I'm not even in your shoes right now.
Over at John Chow's website there has been a lot of praise for BlueFur.com hosting. The price looks right, but I'm not sure about the details of the packages. It looks like their monthly transfer limits are significantly lower, but maybe they actually deliver what they sell.
Ellen says:
I would recommend against Dreamhost, actually. They had a pretty catastrophic crash that screwed a lot of people just a couple of weeks ago.
Good luck!
john says:
Trent, how long do you leave the WP-Cache pages in your cache? Maybe holding on to the cached pages for a longer period of time, say a few hours more than you usually do, would cut down on the number of page generations you'll need to do?
(Disclaimer: I have no experience with WordPress, but I have a lot of Web development experience.)
Bill says:
If you're looking for good rates… try Hostgator… I host my site with them. Been great since last June.
Chris says:
Throwing in as a very small time site hoster that dream host is pretty cool for the 30 bucks or whatever you can get the first year for. Start there, then if you take off, move to a more professional/highend hosting company.
Trent says:
Dreamhost is the very company that I overloaded, Chris. They don't deal with a blog with 20K pageviews an average day plus semi-regular digg spikes on their basic plan very well.
fivecentnickel.com says:
I'm surprised that your CPU usage is super high if you're using WP-Cache. Yes, it was probably a lot of traffic, but most people were being funneled to a single page, which should have been sitting happily in your case an not generating much in the way of CPU usage. Mine is set to rebuild the pages every 3600 seconds (= one hour).
Regardless, that's kind of a bummer.
fivecentnickel.com says:
Grrrr… Sitting in your cache, not your case. Love that spell check!
1mil says:
Whoa 20k a day… Are you sure its that many? lol
Dreamhost gives you like 2TB of bandwidth, what if you limit the number of posts that display per page?
Juan (1mil)
1mil says:
Ok, after looking at your code. I don't see anything to hectic here. Assuming your using a database to store your posts, I think you're pushing your MySQL to the limit. Do you really need to list every related post on every page those are kind of lengthy. If you login to mysql you can check the tables to see if theyre optimized or not.
adam says:
I am the webmaster of several sites and have been happy with the service that bluehost provides. Plenty of bandwith, sql databases etc. available. Good luck!
Tyler says:
GoDaddy.com. Can't go wrong with them.

While Walking Tall doesn't exactly break any new ground in the world of action movies, it does manage during its lean and mean 86-minute running time to deliver a solid, yet brainless, good time. A remake of the Joe Don Baker film of the same name, this version's first change is the name of its main character from Buford Pusser to Chris Vaughn. Perhaps the filmmakers thought that Buford Pusser just wouldn't be a fitting hero name for the film's star, wrestler The Rock. It is the onscreen charm of The Rock that makes this film a fun ride. In the hands of any other action star, Walking Tall could have turned out to be as thin as the film's barely there premise. In his portrayal of the avenging sheriff in a small Washington town, The Rock comes off not as a bully, but as a good-natured muscleman who loves his family and is really looking out for the little guy. While watching the über-macho Rock go around cleaning up the town with his trusty weapon of choice, it's hard not to let go and pump your fist as you root for him. Every character is a cliché, much of the dialogue falls flat on the ground, and the film's plot and conclusion can be seen from miles away. However, the director understands how to film action at the brisk pace that so many of today's so-called action films lack. Walking Tall steps past all of its obvious flaws and remains, if the audience lets it, a terrifically entertaining time.

Avocado is a summer fruit, but when it's 20-something degrees outside (like it was this entire past week), all our bodies are longing for sunshine. And guacamole, obviously.

Money is sadly essential for success in big-time politics these days. Even the best candidate rarely can expect to be elected unless he can raise a substantial -- sometimes obscene -- amount of campaign money.
If a candidate and his policies are appealing, he may find it easier to attract eager donors. Other contributors shell out money expecting to get something in return -- and not necessarily good government.
It would be nice if a candidate's merit, values and principles alone could propel him to office, but that's typically not enough.
In our current presidential election cycle, local numbers bear that out.
The Republican field dominates fundraising in our conservative area, with the GOP candidates getting collective campaign donations through Sept. 30 of about $38,000 from Hamilton Countians. Democrat President Barack Obama had raised about $24,000 as of the same date. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney led the GOP field with about $17,000 in local contributions.
Of course, hardly anyone believes that Obama will carry conservative Tennessee in 2012, but money raised here will not necessarily be spent here. It may go to battleground states where the president has better odds.
The lower amounts that the individual GOP candidates have collected in Hamilton County compared with Obama simply indicate that Republican voters in our area have not settled on which GOP candidate they prefer. Eventually they will coalesce around one of the hopefuls, who will then likely start to get the overwhelming share of GOP donations.
Meanwhile, nationwide, Obama hopes to raise $1 billion for his 2012 campaign. Any GOP candidate would surely like to reach such a total, too.
They may well need it to challenge Obama. But it is nonetheless troubling that money plays such a huge role in our elections.
And on that subject, have you seen a candidate of either party who you believe is worth investing a lot amount of money in to help elect?
This is a good letter. Money is the not "the mothers milk of good politics" it is the utter corruption of it. The feeding of "shovel ready jobs" to union and businesses that will feed money back into the coffers of "the one" is of prime example. Not that I believe he is the first do do this kind of thing. It is why we should lamb bast our members of congress who think ANYONE SHOULD GET A BAILOUT. The institutional Repubs and Dems will tell you this cannot be changed. They don't want it changed so of course they will tell you that. There is ONLY ONE WAY TO DO IT. States must assert their 10th Amendment authority and allow ONLY money raised from within each state to be spent there for campaigns. It may take a constitutional amendment, but we can be forced Washington to abide by it if we as citizens stand up to them and demand it. No one outside of Tennessee should have a voice in Tennessee.
My complaint is not that people can freely give to the candidate of their choice but that candidates like the Obamination in the White House can freely give taxpayer money to his Wall Street buddies!
I completely agree that money plays huge, if not the main role in politics now.Doesn't really matter if you are good or bad, what kind of ideas you have and if you've got something to offer, if you have money for your campaingn- you have a chance, no money- no chance.I am sure that for millions of people who has not enough money for living it's sad to see how much money is spent for political campaigns.And it's hard to believe that people who can afford to spend such big money for their political career really understand how to make lifes of simple people better. http://cashadvancesus.com/

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - Just how cold is it in Kentucky? Apparently cold enough for an escaped prisoner to decide to turn himself in.
Authorities said the inmate escaped from a minimum security facility in Lexington on Sunday. As temperatures dropped into the low single digits Monday, officials say the man walked into a motel and asked the clerk to call police.
Robert Vick, 42, of Hartford told the clerk he wanted to turn himself in and escape the arctic air, Lexington police spokeswoman Sherelle Roberts said.
Vick was checked out by paramedics and returned to Blackburn Correctional Complex, Roberts said.
"This was definitely of his own volition," she said. "It's cold out there, too cold to run around. I can understand why the suspect would turn himself in."
Vick would have been dressed in prison-issued khaki pants, a shirt and a jacket when he escaped, Department of Corrections spokeswoman Lisa Lamb said. Wind chill readings were 20 below zero Monday in Lexington.
The Lexington Fire Department treated Vick for hypothermia Monday evening, Roberts said. A call to the department was not immediately returned Tuesday morning.
Vick was serving a six-year sentence for burglary and criminal possession of a forged instrument at the time of the escape from Blackburn Correctional Center.
There was no answer at the Sunset Motel and Restaurant, where Roberts said Vick surrendered, on Tuesday morning.

A Primer on the Rights and Wrongs of Proselytism
John Witte Jr.
Emory University School of Law
Cumberland Law Review, Vol. 31, pp. 619-629, 2001
The problem of proselytism is ironic. The modern human rights revolution has catalyzed a great awakening of religion around the globe. Religion has become the latest "transnational variable." However, this awakening has created a new "war for souls" as foreign religious groups have begun converting the faithful of areas previously untouched by Western religion. Local religions have become increasingly resentful of such attempts, especially by Western religions that assume a Western human rights ethic. Thus, national and international governing bodies are being forced to balance the rights of groups to preach their gospel and the freedom of the individual to choose a religion with the right of local groups to be left alone with their faith. This is a theological and legal war that is leading to increasing religious balkanization.
The problem of conversion stems from a difference in legal and theological understandings of conversion. For Western Christians, conversion is an easy process. For Jews, conversion is a much more difficult process. For Muslim, converting into the faith is easy, but it is impossible to convert out of Islam. Thus, the question, "Whose rites get rights?" becomes a complex and delicate problem. Governing bodies have agreed that children should not be converted, and coercive methods should never be used. Other than that, the boundary of what is proper proselytism remains difficult to define.
Traditionally, dissenters from local churches were excommunicated and even killed for their beliefs. However, a middle ground of banishment was a milder way to ease the tension within religious communities. Thus, religious dissenters should be free, and perhaps even encouraged to leave a religious community that is no longer their own as a way to lower tensions. Ultimately, the only solution to the problem of proselytism is less state control of the issue and more self-restraint by both local and foreign groups. Perhaps implementing a moratorium on proselytism for a few years in developing nations would help to ease the tensions that proselytism can create. However, such a moratorium could not be permanent, as preaching the gospel is a central facet of many religions.

Two come in for Bulls
The Blue Bulls have made two changes from the team that beat Griquas to face the Golden Lions in Pretoria on Saturday.
At scrum-half, Ruan Snyman will earn his first start, swopping places with Rudy Paige (who drops to the bench) and Bongi Mbonambi who will start at hooker in place of the injured Callie Visagie.
Former Blue Bulls hooker Bandise Maku, who left Pretoria to play for the Lions and later the Southern Kings, returns to the team on the bench, whilst Jacques Engelbrecht will earn his first start for his new team should he be called upon from the bench.
Engelbrecht, a former SWD Eagles, Kings and Springbok Sevens player, comes in for injured Jean Cook.
"We have played well in patches this far and now need to produce a more lasting effort," said Pine Pienaar.
"The Lions have a lot of momentum and have played as a unit for a while now, so we will need to counter that by playing as a team. I am happy to call on the likes of Bandise and Jacques as they have slotted in very well and I am sure they will make a telling contribution off the bench."
"We have improved every match and that is the pleasing part of our performances," said Blue Bulls captain Jono Ross.
"We have not put together an 80 minute effort yet though and everyone is quite conscious about that. We have seen that when we play as a team, we are hard to beat, so our objectives are quite clear in that regard."
Blue Bulls: 15 Jürgen Visser, 14 Sampie Mastriet, 13 Ulrich Beyers, 12 Francois Venter, 11 Travis Ismaiel, 10 Tony Jantjies, 9 Ruan Snyman, 8 Jono Ross (c), 7 Jacques du Plessis, 6 Wiaan Liebenberg, 5 Grant Hattingh, 4 Paul Willemse, 3 Frik Kirsten, 2 Bongi Mbonambi, 1 Morné Mellett.
Replacements: 16 Bandise Maku, 17 Marcell van der Merwe, 18 Wilhelm Steenkamp, 19 Jacques Engelbrecht, 20 Rudy Paige, 21 Waylon Murray, 22 Clayton Blommetjies.
Date: Saturday, August 24
Venue: Loftus Versfeld, Pretoria
Kick-off: 17.05 (16.05 GMT)
Referee: Jonathan Kaplan
Assistant referees: Jaco Van Heerden, Cobus Wessels
TMO: Tappe Henning

Gender: Male
City: Southport
Country: United Kingdom
About Calum
Hi, Im Calum, Im 15 and I have a season ticket in the upper gwladys. I have started to play golf, I also play rugby.
First Game
Everton 6 - 0 West Ham, cant remember the year.
Favourite Everton Moment
"We shall not be moved" getting sang after Mikel Arteta brought us level against fiorentina. The atmoshphere there was imense.
Favourite All Time Player
Mikel Arteta. I started going to games about 10 years ago, but I cannot remember that many players and their attributes. This is the reason I picked Mikel Arteta because he is sound the way he plays and allways gives his all.
Favourite Current Player
Mikel Arteta. Same as above.
Favourite Manager
David Moyes. Again, not been watching long enough to remember many managers, all I can remember watching is David Moyes and Walter Smith. Underneath Walter, we were just edging above the relegation zone, it could have gone either way. Under Moyesy, there has been 1 bad season but all the others, we have finshed in and around the european cup places. Also he saved us when Walter left.
Favourite Game
Everton 3 - 0 Liverpool. Goodison Park. 06/07 season.
Favourite Goal
I cannot remember games very far back, and most of the games before moyesy werent particularly exciting. So I have a tough choice between: Mikel Arteta v Fiorentina, Lee Carsley v Liverpool or Wayne Rooney v Arsenal.
Favourite Kit
I really like the current home kit, but my favourite was quite possibly a yellow black and blue one when we were sponsored by Danka. I also liked the 100years of top flight football kit from puma a few years ago.
Favourite Chant
I did like the one for last seasons uefa cup "tell me ma me ma...." but not really suitable anymore so probably "Follow follow..." I used to like the "Super Kev" one aswell.

Deerfield warrant articles sail through deliberative session
"It wasn't much of an event, between the weather and the rest of it," said school board Chair Donald Gorman. The session was delayed from Saturday due to weather.
Several voters asked about a warrant that would allow the district to retain up to 2.5 percent of the district's budget surplus and place that money into an emergency fund. Such a fund can only be used to reduce the tax rate or for emergency expenditures, all of which have to be approved by the Department of Education.
"(Residents were asking) 'Why are you doing this, if we approve it?' " said Gorman. "The answer to that question was to level off tax spikes, which I don't think they understood too well. It wasn't until it was explained that on any given year, as we had a few years back with a special needs kid (who cost the district) $400,000, where there's no limit with special needs kids, it'd be nice to have the money set aside."
No amendments were made, with all proposed warrants being moved to the amendment as presented.
The school district's proposed operating budget is $11,986,253. The default budget is $11,916,597.
The ballot will also include two collective bargaining agreements. The first, between the Deerfield School Board and the Deerfield Education Association, calls for three raises over the next three years: an $113,718 increase for 2013-2014, an $117,183 increase for 2014-2015, and a $120,767 increase for 2015-2016.
The second, between the Deerfield School Board and the Deerfield Para-educators Association, calls for two raises over the next two years: a $38,634 increase for 2013-2014, and a $27,929 increase for 2014-2015.
The other money question would raise and appropriate $25,000 for the facilities repair and improvement expendable trust fund.
Deerfield will hold its town election March 12 at the Deerfield Town Hall at 10 Church Street. The polls will be open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.

Found August 28, 2012 on MyTeamRivals.com:
PLAYERS: Dez Bryant, Jason Garrett, David Wells
TEAMS: Dallas Cowboys
TEAMS: Dallas Cowboys
It seems that the Dallas Cowboys have come up with a set of special rules for 23-year-old Dez Bryant due to his habit of running into trouble when away from the football field, such as allegedly assaulting his own mother. The NFL's Cowboys don't want to take any risks with the youngster and it's been reported that they have set out a list of special rules for him to follow and he's agreed to them. Some of them include abstaining from alcohol, adhering to a curfew of midnight, staying away from strip clubs, getting counseling, and having bodyguards travel with him. Dallas head coach Jason Garrett said the team is trying to support Bryant and has come up with these guidelines as a way for him to behave in an acceptable manner in society. He said all members of the club need to be accountable for their actions not just Bryant. Cowboys' owner Jerry Jones has complicated the matter though as some media outlets are reporting that there are any special rules for Bryant to live by. However,...

Fresh Air's critic at large John Powers discusses the documentary The Square by Egyptian filmmaker Jehane Noujaim. The Square takes audiences into the Egyptian revolution and its aftermath by following three protestors' stories. The film will be streaming on Netflix starting Friday:
The Square is not a 360-degree portrait of recent Egyptian history. We don't get to know the hardliners in the Muslim Brotherhood — and there are many of them — who would die, and are dying, to create an Islamic state.
Nor do we hear from the millions of ordinary people who are now sick of all the demos in Tahrir Square and want life to get back to normal. Noujaim is consciously partial — and clearly on the secularists' side.
Yet the movie is no less gripping or revealing for that. As we're plunged into scenes of both ecstasy and violence, it's impossible not to be moved by the heroism of those who turned up in Tahrir Square realizing this just might get them killed. I've never done anything remotely so brave in pursuit of my own freedom.

Record entries have been received for the Wairarapa Tennis Association's Shoe Clinic parent-child doubles tournament at Masterton Tennis Centre on Sunday.
In all, 27 pairings will take to the court, a huge increase on the 17 of 12 months ago.
The three sections in play, 10yrs, 12ys and 13yrs to 16yrs, are defined by the age of the child and the 10yrs grade, in particular, should be keenly contested.
There a former world-ranked player in Belinda Cordwell will team up with her son, Henry, and they can anticipate spirited opposition from Martinborough regional one player Bruce Lovell and his son, Jack, and the Coltons, father Craig and son Shane.
There is no question who will be top seeds in the 12-year division.
That spot is sure to be held by the father-and-daughter combination of Luke and Georgia Atkinson, both of whom play for the Masterton regional one club side.
Opaki's Jon McNab is also a regular on the regional one scene and he will have son Lochie alongside him.
The 13- to 16-year grade could see two other members of the Lovell family to the fore, in this case mother Rhona and daughter Charlotte, but some useful father-son pairings are sure to keep them honest.
All entrants will participate in at least three matches and there will be trophies and prizes for the winners and runners-up, various spot prizes and a sausage sizzle.
Matches in the Wairarapa regional one interclub competition continue tomorrow with Opaki playing Masterton at Masterton and Martinborough up against Gladstone at Gladstone. On the basis of them sharing the spoils in the Shirley Corlett Trophy series, Opaki and Martinborough deserve to start favourites in their respective games but with the composition of sides often changing nothing can ever be guaranteed.

Gravity inside the Earth

Gravity inside the Earth
Quote by
This is only true if you assume that the density of the earth is uniform, which is not the case.
that is very true, it would not be uniform. It should still derease to zero as you get to the centre though, as at the COG it cancels out in every direction.
I just find it odd that there is no data on this. There are plenty of deep caves and pipelines about the earth, some that go over thirty miles down, so i would have thought that at least some experiments would have been carried out to see what gravity is doing inside the earth. there must be some experiments that have been conducted. can anyone find any? i certainly cant
Quote by
For a homogenouos sphere it can be determined that g(r)=GM(r)/r2. M(r) being the mass within of the sphere with radius r. - G gravitational constant and rho density (Sorry, not proficient with that excellent formula tool)
The total mass outside that radius is cancelling each other. Since M(r)=4/3 * rho * pi *r^3 it follows that g(r)=4/3 * G * rho * pi * r. In other words the gravity inside a homogenouos sphere is directly proportional to the distance to the centre.
Now assuming that the density rho is linear decreasing from value a with increment b, we replace rho with rho(r)=a-br. Substitute it in the first formula to get only a simple square formula, so intergrating is basic.
However we have five discontinuing layers: inner core, outer core, lower mantle, upper mantle, lithosphere. Each with their own numbers r-min, r-max, rho-a and b
So a practical approach is numerical intergration in a spreadsheet with the advantage having the graph visible immediately. I used 100 km increments for each shell. Cross checking it with the real Earth data (mass and g) the numbers in that link appeared to be off by 1,6%.
A fine piece of work! i had not thought about this before, and to be honest the maths was beyond me, until i saw that.
Now who wants to predict what my graph shows?
i would like to see that graph, it doesn't seem to work.
Q1 Where is gravity of the Earth the strongest?
x C – SOMEWHERE ABOUT HALFWAY DOWN TO THE CENTRE OF THE EARTH. 10,62 ms-2 at a dept of about 2890 km
That surprises me somewhat. I would have thought it was stongest at the surface, as the further down you go the more mass cancels out. hmmm..... i'm missing something.

Want the stability and ruggedness of a downhill bike with the agility and playfulness of an all mountain machine? Look no further that the Diamondback Scapegoat. The 2014 Scapegoat shares many of the pedal-efficient characteristics of the Diamondback Mission series and adds extra travel and reinforcement for a burly rip down the line of your choice.
Diamondback's Design Philosophy is a no-nonsense approach to building quality bicycles. We want our bike designs to be straightforward: their hardware accessible and their suspension simple. This is on full display with the Scapegoat.
The 2014 Scapegoat 6" frame is created from 6061-T6 Weapons Grade Aluminum and features a hydroformed top tube, a butted and formed downtube seatstays, seatstay bridge, a tapered headtube, ISCG 05 tabs, a 142×12mm E-Thru Axle drop out and Diamondbacks legendary Knuckle Box Suspension technology.
The Knuckle Box, or bell crank, is the core of our single-pivot four-bar suspension platform. Optimally placed pivots equate to a low leverage ratio, and ultimately to superior pedaling efficiency and small-bump compliance. This also allows the shock to work more efficiently and reduces pedal induced motion. It also reduces overall load on the system which will lead to improved shock and bearing life.
Placing the Knuckle Box low within the frame, situates the greatest weight of the bike closer to the bottom bracket, which lowers the bike's center of gravity and allows it to better track and corner.
Wheel-rate is also one of the most significant aspects of a suspension system. Wheel-rate is the effective spring-rate when measured at the wheel. A benefit of our four-bar linkage is increased control over the wheel-rate. Obtaining the spring-rate curves in shocks from Fox is necessary to allowing us to determine the wheel-rate. Working closely with Fox, we're able to optimize the wheel-rate to be linear-to-slightly progressive. This results in superb small-bump compliance, more perceived travel and excellent bottom-out protection. For this application we've chosen to run a 160mm (216×63) Fox Float X CTD Adjust Rear Shock with Kashima Coat. This keeps the rear riding plush without too much sacrifice on the pedal uphill.
Where the Scapegoat initially started as a beefed up version of our popular Mission platform, a few tweaks have taken place over the years to define it more as a park/light freeride bike and separate it from its Mission brethren. We started by designing the bike around a 180mm fork up front which allows the front end to sit slack at a hill shredding 66 degrees. The slacker front end eats obstacles with ease and ads more stability on the descents. You can certainly run the bike with a 160mm fork if a steeper front end is desired.
We've also added a reinforced downtube to ensure a stable platform regardless of how big you go. By also increasing the size of the hardware, we put less stress on the bearing sustaining their life.
For 2014, we've kept our promise to give the Scapegoat the ultimate build – one that is perfect right off the showroom floor. And it's there that we started with an Easton Havoc UST compatible wheelset wrapped in KENDA NEVEGAL 26×2.35 w/ STICK-E rubber compound. The only thing that can stop these bad boys from spinning is the set of Shimano Zee 4 piston Hydraulic Disc Brakes with Zee servo wave and tool-free reach and stroke adjust (8" front/7"rear). Pair that with the Shimano Saint drivetrain including short cage rear derailleur and 10spd cassette (11-34) and you've got the ability to crush any descent. A Gravity Lite Mega Exo single ring crankset and guide offer simplicity and strength to the mix. Easton comes back to round it out with a Havoc Handlebar and 50mm stem (secured with an FSA No57 sealed cartridge headset), and what you've got here son is pure gold (or blue – depending on how you wanna look at it).
Scapegoat unique frame features and characteristics:
Tapered Head tube – Today's longer travel forks generate more stress on the head tube. Add in today's more aggressive rider and the need for additional strength in that region becomes imperative. The 2014 Scapegoat frame is equipped with a tapered head tube for enhanced steering and extra strength.
142×12 mm Thru Axle – Employing Shimano's new 142×12 mm E-Thru design makes for a stiffer and stronger rear-end on the bike.
Single-Sided Hardware – Single-sided hardware used for the three main pivot points allows for easy access to your high-quality Enduro Max bearings simply with standard tools. No more removing the crankset to tighten or service your pivots.
Knucklebox Technology
LOW AND TIGHT – The Knuckle Box platform was designed specifically to be low and tight:
Make no mistake; the 2014 Scapegoat is built for the biggest and baddest of the bunch. Choose your weapons wisely.
The Scapegoat is blue and comes in 3 sizes SM (15.5"), MD (17"), LG (19").
Height must be between 56-79in.
Height must be between 142-201cm.
