I started this post at the normal time this morning (during my morning airdrop), but I was a bit hungover and didn't feel I could give this post the attention it deserved. I apologize about the delay, but really, this needed time to stew.
It's probably not hard to figure out based on the title of this post that I'm about to discuss the incredibly sad events that happened yesterday in Connecticut. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, you probably live under a rock. In case you do, a gunman entered into an elementary school yesterday morning and shot 20 children between the ages of six and seven, as well as 6 adults, one of them being the principal. Police later found the shooter's mother dead in her home. This tragic event comes on the heels of a completely unrelated shooting earlier in the week at a mall in Portland, Oregon. Please excuse any appearance of levity I may be expressing here; it's not intentional. Also, forgive me about the pun in the title; I promise it's appropriate.
This seems to be a growing… epidemic. I really hate using that term, but I don't have the energy to think of something better. Every time this happens, we are reminded of Virginia Tech. Those of us who are old enough to remember are taken all the way back to Columbine. There are several other instances to mention, none any less significant or sad, but I could spend the rest of the night finding news articles and never get to the core of my post.
Usually, when a tragedy occurs, I am immediately and reactively detached from emotion. Once that passes, I'm dumbstruck with sadness and tears. Pretty soon, two days later maybe, I am completely fed up with the news coverage and the social media buffet of sweeping generalizations, uninformed assumptions, liberal finger-pointing, and conservative hand-waving. Everybody seems to become a freakin' expert on human psychology, sociology, and criminology, spouting all kinds of bullshit on every topic including gun control, access to mental health resources, economic distress, violence in the media, deficits in public awareness, and school lockdown policies. I'm not saying that these issues are bullshit, not at all. What I am saying is that all of these issues seem to disappear from conversation between disasters, then someone snaps, kills a bunch of people, and suddenly everybody with a microphone or a keyboard is babbling about how important these issues are to them.
Am I guilty of this? Probably. I mean, I am writing this blog right now, but let's face it: This is social media, so if I didn't write about the Connecticut shooting, no one would read my blog post today, right?
This event was especially tragic, both because of the number of victims and their ages. It's bad when anyone dies at the hands/devices of another person, worse when it's a child, and unfathomable when it's several children. Regardless of the circumstances, it fucking pisses me off when I turn on the TV and see the following images: (voice over of some bland fake news anchor going on and on about what is possibly going on in the minds of) images of people on their cell phones crying, men holding children crying, teachers walking students out of the school, carefully constructed frames with police officers carrying large assault rifles with terrified looking children in the background, and children (supposedly) left unattended in the street looking helpless.
Not only are these images used for shock value and intended to paint a picture that is less than accurate in terms of the events unfolding, but these are real people involved in real tragedies happening in real time. How dare anyone use those moments to exploit a tragedy for the improvement of network ratings or peddling a corporate/political agenda. How fucking dare you. How would you like it if, let's say, your sister was attending a school where a shooting occurred, and you were outside, wondering if she was a victim, and no one was able to tell you anything, and you lost your wits, and you were screaming and crying and pleading for someone to find your little sister, just to know if she was alive, because no one was allowed to enter the building, and while you were having your little meltdown, some cameraman snaped a picture of you and sent it to the network office. Within minutes, images of your face were incorporated into the live feed that will circulate for hours upon days upon weeks. How would you like to have people call you and tell you they saw you on the news, in the midst of this disaster? How would you like to find a news article on the web with a copy of your picture embedded in the print? What if your sister, God forbid, actually died in that shooting? Great, because now, all you have to do is watch the news to remember exactly what your face looked like when police told you that your loved one was murdered. Priceless moments brought to you by the insensitive self-serving media.
Get fucking real people. There are terrible things happening all the time, everywhere. Just because there happens to be a camera in someone's hand nearby, doesn't mean that it immediately needs to be used to capture events like this. And anyone who wants to get on here and tell me that images like that are what some people need to understand just how important the issues of gun control and mental health are and how these issues affect real people can go fuck themselves, because that is not the way to force a loaded gun into someone else's hands.
Every time a finger gets pointed at someone else for not refusing to sell a gun to every psychopath that walks into a pawn shop, not seeing the warning signs that someone might be mentally disturbed, not preventing a shooter from walking into a school, not letting children see something bad on TV, not training teachers to be assassins, or not doing some other thing to some other thing, that person is pulling the gun out of the killer's hand and pushing it into someone else's, regardless if it's justified or not.
And really, it doesn't matter if it's justified or not. Despite a lack of gun control or a lack in school security, or anything else, it takes someone who is mentally disturbed to pick up a gun, doesn't matter where they got it, walk into a school full of six and seven year old kids, and start shooting them. And then, as if you would need more proof that they are mentally unbalanced, they kill themselves. In case no one is keeping track, most people don't do that. Most people, something near 99%, do not go on killing sprees, and many of them are exposed to some of the same difficulties, some of the same life experiences, and some of the same environmental factors as this gunman. What prevents the other people in that group from going on a rampage?
I'm going to share a quote from a friend of mine that I saw on Facebook, because I agree wholeheartedly:
When days like yesterday occur, we want someone to blame. Parents for not paying more attention to their children, the economy for forcing two-parent families to work overtime to care for their children, making it impossible to pay more attention to them, lack of God in schools, too much God in schools, the need for more gun control, the need for less gun control, social policy, and the mental health care system, drugs, pharmaceuticals… We all do it. I did it. But while we are all sitting here trying to place blame on something, what are we as individuals doing about it? Are we at all trying to help the person sitting next to us, do we make ourselves open and available to someone who simply needs 5 minutes of our time? Are we doing anything to make ourselves more open and available? I'm not trying to simplify something so disturbing. But change has to start somewhere, why not with individuals? I used to want to change the world, then I learned I could only change myself.

I used to want to change the world, then I learned I could only change myself.
Amen, sister.
As far as my thoughts on the issues at hand, all I can say is that I don't think any one thing was to blame for what happened. I can't really blame gun control here, because this guy, according to some articles I've read, got these guns from his mother, i.e. the mother he killed, i.e. the person to whom the guns were registered. We can't exactly interview his mother, so we can't interrogate her to find out why she didn't stop him from taking her guns and going on a shooting spree, nor can we ask her why she didn't see this coming and have him locked up in a mental institution. The shooter is dead, so we can't ask him what was going through his mind when he pocketed three guns, got in a car, and drove to an elementary school with murder in his fists. We can't question the principal about what she was personally doing to make the school safe for the students whom she was personally responsible, because we all know that if anything happens within the walls of a school, the principal knows about it. We can't even talk to the school psychologist about how the other students are going to deal with this tragedy, since several of their classmates and friends were slaughtered right before their eyes, in a what is supposed to be a safe place to learn, because she too, was killed in this attack.
So you see, we may never know exactly what caused this man to go over the edge and do the unthinkable, but one thing is for damn sure: nothing will be done to solve this growing epidemic of mass shootings until finger-pointing is done in front of a mirror.
This blog ran super, super long, but I apologize for nothing. I hope it made you feel something, good or bad. It doesn't matter to me which one.
See you in a few hours…-Flush

To the woman who performed the Heimlich maneuver and saved our friend's life at Doc's during breakfast on Aug. 6, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You were so calm. I think we were in a mild shock and too embarrassed to properly thank you. You left before we could even buy you breakfast!

Joe A. Dig
Hello all; I'm Joe "joeadig†DiGiuseppe and I'm a lifelong Mets fan. That doesn't quite have the "I'm an alcoholic†admission status that it once did these days though, huh? And while I'd like to say that winning doesn't matter to me, it sure feels damn good right now to root for the best team in baseball!
I'm not really sure how or why I became a Mets fan, but I do have a theory. I was seven-years-old in 1986, just about the time a young boy reaches his formative years, and just about the time the Mets were the best team in baseball. So while I'd love to say that I'm a Met fan by birth, I'm not—it was probably their winning ways in the mid-80's that did it. I have splashes of memory from the 86 World Series, many more from the 88 playoff loss to the Dodgers, and way too many of Vince Coleman, Bobby Bonilla, and Eddie Murary destroying the team that love.
My all-time favorite Met has always been Gary Carter and it broke my heart to see him go into the Hall of Fame as an Expo. Mike Piazza is a very close second all-time favorite player, and if he ends up in the Hall as a Dodger I just may send a very harshly-worded letter to the voting committee. Jose Reyes is my favorite current Met, and if he plays like he has this past season and ends up in the Hall, he better not go in with another team because it just may make me cry like a little girl.
When I'm not watching baseball (and if you ask my wife that's practically never), I'm a high school English teacher in Freehold, NJ. I'm a computer nerd who surfs the net daily and plays online games whenever there's time. I can't get enough Lost; I think it's an American tragedy that Arrested Development was canceled; and if The Office isn't new each Thursday I throw things at people. I don't have a myspace account because I just don't see the appeal, but I do have petster accounts for dog and two cats (actually my wife made them and I make fun of her for it, but secretly I love them too—don't tell her!).
That's about all I can think of to say about myself. Enjoy miraclemets.net!

That's only part of reaching my goal. It's important, but it's not what I'm after— I got something I have to do for my sister. And myself. [He sighs.] I don't know why I'm telling you all this! You don't care, man.
You have a sister? That must be wonderful.. [He shrugs, looking elsewhere.] You do not have to speak with me if you do not want to.
[He nods.] Yeah, I need to get stronger. I'm almost through most of the gyms at this point. Once I'm done, I think I'll be ready to finish what I set out to do when I started this whole journey.
Oh? What is that? Is it to challenge the champion? [ He begins to smile but it immediately dies back down when he remembers what the boy said about challenging the Elite Four.]
quoththemurkrow replied to your post:[He hesitates, sighing and almost giving up already before forcing smile.] Well…how are you doing today? Er. I've…I wanted to apologize for anything I've said in the past that's upset you.
[He listens patiently enough, which is probably surprising given how he usually is when he bothers with people that irritate him. His expression doesn't change from a rather blank annoyance though, shrugging after a moment of consideration.]
Apologize? Eh, whatever, dude. It's cool I guess. I don't really care about what you've said to me. I only care about how my mom got upset when she talked about you to me. 'Sides, I got other stuff on my mind that's more important than anything you could insult me with, ya know.
Right… [He fiddles with his scarf, acting oddly nervous. He wasn't even able to pretend like he was confident about this conversation.] Other stuff…you're a trainer right? Are you attempting to earn all of the badges?
bel-bianca replied to your post: I've got some wonderful news~.
Oh, oh! What is the movie about?
I'm not allowed to say too much of it, but it's a romance involving vampires~.
Well, wonderful for me at least. I've been asked to star in a new sure to be a hit movie. I know it's sure to be a hit because I'm in it~. But can you believe that? That they wanted me specifically to fill the role of the main male of the movie? Well, the fellow I will be playing is incredibly handsome. So it only makes sense they would ask the most handsome man in all of Unova to play him~.
[He pets Grims' hair and gives him a kiss on the cheek.]
I think you should try anyway. I can see two different outcomes to this and while both have their issues, one will hurt less than the other— so you need to try. The other involves a figure I don't know anything about…it's hard to make out the details.
[He sighs.] I am getting a headache. I will try to help you through this, but for now you will have to deal with the skills of a second rate magician. [He smiles tiredly.]
[He tries to smile and returns the kiss.] …all right, love. I'll trust you on this. I'll try to get his forgiveness.
[Noticing how tired Will looks, he nuzzles against him some, giving him another kiss.] I'm sorry if I'm stressing you out with this, Will…and you're the best boyfriend anyone could ever have, I'm sorry for what I said earlier.
…I didn't predict that, but then again I have no means to actually see the future emotions of people, in a sense. I can only get the broad outlines of a person in my visions. I just knew he was going to hit you!
[He sighs, giving Grimsley a hug.] Maybe you should ask why he feels that way? You can at least try to ask for his forgiveness, Grims.
[He hugs Will, hiding his face from view on his shoulder.]
…I'm afraid to. I've…teased him in the past before I knew of this. And I've apparently upset his mother greatly. I probably don't deserve his forgiveness anyways…
I'll just end up being exactly like…my own father. [He sighs, hugging Will tighter. There's a small tremble in his body.]
quoththemurkrow replied to your post:Today a boy came up to me, punched me in the gut, and then told me he's the son from a fling I had 16 years ago. You can tell me when something is going to be knocked off the kitchen table but you couldn't tell me that?
Ask yourself this, love.
Would you have believed me if I told you in the first place? Think back on when I got you King, your Houndour. You just barely trusted me enough on my vision to try and overcome your fear.
And I thought you could use a little pain to jar your senses and make you learn a lesson. I can't always hold someone's hand through life, you know.
…. [he huffs.]
I suppose not. But you still could have at least tried to warn me. I don't care what kind of lesson you wanted to teach, that kid is strong.
…and….and he's…my son…and he…hates me…
Will…I have a son…who hates me…
[Anticipating this response, Hugh digs around in his coat for a box that a recent package came in and pulls out a photo of a young lady holding onto the arm of a young man in an interesting scarf. It was a photo of school outing. He holds it up for Grims to take. On the back is a date and names signed on it.]
I didn't believe it either, dude. But mom says its you in this picture and who she had her…uh…'first time' with or whatever. And I'm not happy about this either. I still think you're an asshole. And I can't wait to battle you in the league when I get there.
I'm gonna make you cry then.
[He takes the photo, a look of surprise on his face when he seen that it was indeed him and an old girlfriend, this boy's mother, in the photo. Suddenly, it all clicks in his mind, everything that happened with her years ago, and he realizes Hugh is telling the truth.]
…I see. [He smiles sadly, trying to put up his usual mask of arrogance but fails, unable to even look at the boy as he hands the photograph back.]
…I…I look forward to your challenge then.
(Source: quoththemurkrow)
[He takes a swipe at his own nose and smirks at the man as he gives him that glare through the pain. And then he shrugs.] Felt like I owed you for mom. She got upset talking about you and I don't like it when anyone makes her cry, dude.
[He shrugs again, glaring at the man.] You calling my mom a liar? Cuz I got more pain I can deliver if that's the case! [Shakes a fist at him.]
[Grimsley backs up some at the boy's glare, trying to get out of his way in case he does decide to hit again.]
Perhaps I am. Forgive me for being a bit skeptical, but this wouldn't be the first time someone claimed a child that wasn't mine was. How am I suppose to believe that some obnoxious brat like yourself is my 'son' just because some mystery woman says so, hm?
(Source: quoththemurkrow)
'Fan' is, like, putting it lightly, old dude. She apparently dated you or something. Can't see why. You're annoying as fuck and incredibly rude. My mom is a classier lady than that…but whatever.
Anyway, this is for you…
[Punches him in the gut.]
Hey, dad.
[He clutches his stomach, groaning and doubling over, falling down onto his knees. He looks up at the boy, glaring through a pained face.] What the hell was that about you fucking cretin?
[He shakily stands up, glaring at the boy still while he tries to figure out what he said. ] Dad..? I think you have the wrong person.
(Source: quoththemurkrow)
tsunderesaurusrex replied to your post:
Have you ever been to Aspertia City? Like, when you were younger or whatever, cuz my mom had some interesting things to say about you when I called her last time!
Mm, yes. I used to attend a school that was located there when I was younger. Was your mother one of my many fans I had while I was there~? I wouldn't be surprised if so~.
|HEY, weird old man, I got a question to ask you!
Yes, rude little boy, what is it?
Oh, I just don't know. [Caitlin hummed slightly as she tapped a finger to her chin.] I believe the last time I ever did such a foolish thing like that, I found my precious Reuniclus barely relaxed and able to battle because she seemed a little annoyed. [She gave him a slight glare.] I just can't bring myself to believe half of the words spilling out of your mouth… hmm…~
I've told you countless time, that was an accident. And worth it depending on how much you like money~ But come on now, Lady Caitlin, how about we just let bygones be bygones, hm?

When it comes to housecleaning, there's one area that tends to get overlooked: the stairs. Hoisting a heavy vacuum cleaner up and down stairs can be difficult and even dangerous. But by choosing the right tools, you can clean stairs easier and faster, without risking a fall.
The dilemma
The typical problem with carpeted stairs is the upright vacuum. While great for maneuvering around floors, an upright is hard to maneuver and seldom adequately cleans individual stairs. Some uprights have long hoses, but these can be unwieldy and frequently are not long enough to vacuum all the way up the staircase, so only the first few stairs at the top and bottom get any attention.
The right tools
As with any other chore, having the right equipment is key. Assuming you can lift your upright up the stairs and vacuum each step, you'll only be able to clean the center section of the tread. Over time, this leads to dirt buildup around the edges of the steps. This is where canister vacuums have a natural advantage. Their long hoses and roller brushes make getting each step fully vacuumed much easier.
If you don't have a canister vacuum, a portable vacuum can make stair-cleaning easier and more effective. These models are light and come with extra tools that allow you to get into crevices easily. The rotating vacuum head lifts and pulls carpet fibers. This type of vacuum will do a better job of cleaning than one that merely suctions carpet.
At the high end of the price range is the Dyson DC35 handheld cordless vacuum. It has a detachable wand, allowing for the motorized head to be attached close to the handle, and efficiently vacuums carpeted stairs ($329, Dyson.com). A similar product that's corded and offers a motorized head at about half the price is the Shark Rocket ($159, Sharkclean.com). Both are lightweight and come with crevice tools.
If both these models are still more vacuum than you need, the simpler Eureka RapidClean Step Handheld Vacuum is a good choice. It offers a rotating head, built-in hose and crevice tool that's carried on the vacuum's body (Amazon.com, $45). The Dirt Devil Ultra Hand Vac also offers portability, a rotating brush head and built-in crevice tool ($49, DirtDevil.com).
What's important to remember with hand-held vacuums is that you need one that's large enough to handle stairs. Too small and it will be like cleaning the floors with a toothbrush.

Well this looks interesting. Might get one for my budget build.
5jiangyi , February 13, 2012 1:39 AMInteresting case, but it's going to take a lot to move me away from the HAF 912 from a price-performance perspective.....
-5jhansonxi , February 13, 2012 1:40 AMI dislike the PSU intake on the bottom. Obviously won't work on a carpeted floor. It would also have problems on a desk where mouse pads, papers, and cables are pushed up against the bottom or slide underneath. A sideways mount with the intake through the side would be better.
9tecmo34 , February 13, 2012 2:01 AM@boju: The picture with the components in the case, shows the top fan and the rear fan attached to Antec's sealed liquid cooling kit. As for the PSU, the case has a bottom in-take, so the PSU's fan is facing down to draw in fresh air from outside of the case, instead of drawing hot air from within the case.
-4Anonymous , February 13, 2012 2:02 AMI have the original Antec 300, and by looking at these new version 2 cases, it feels like antec decided to go cheaper quality material, and tanka toy looks. When the times comes for me to update my case, i would more likely go with a Corsair 500r or 550d, or whatever other case out there that is worthy to replace the Antec 300 simplicity, and robustness.
0mikeangs2004 , February 13, 2012 2:15 AMIt doesn't even fit a long graphics card.
6tecmo34 , February 13, 2012 2:39 AM@mikeangs2004: Yeah, I noticed that too when I was doing the story. It would fit my GTX 560 Ti but not much bigger. It is limited there, which keeps it in the budget area & a less direct threat to the Antec Three Hundred Two (handles 12.5" GPU's).
-2payneg1 , February 13, 2012 2:45 AMseems like this is better than my coolermaster 430
-1livebriand , February 13, 2012 3:53 AMDang it... I bought an Antec 300 a few weeks ago to finally replace my old case circa 2003, and then the new Antec 300 is released!
I don't quite like the idea of a toolless case though - things aren't as secure in it, and I already use a screwdriver to remove the thumbscrews on my case (I want to make sure they're completely tight and won't vibrate or anything). I really don't mind needing a screwdriver to secure things, and would actually prefer it. Also, having the PSU fan on top isn't too bad - mine's mounted that way because otherwise there's almost no airflow for it, and all works just fine. I've got a Coolermaster hyper tx3 cpu cooler (92mm fan), 2 HDs, a seasonic s12ii (regular height), full atx motherboard, and a evga geforce 550ti (9.5" I think), and it all fits pretty well.
All in all, this Antec One case isn't bad, though I don't get what the bulge on the side is for. I'd like to see them make a small micro-atx or mini-itx case though, like a business SFF machine, using a smaller psu and all (Not ISK-150 small though - the airflow is too limited in there unless you're running an E350 or 2100T, and I've heard of i3 2100s hitting 80C under load in there). For people like me, who want dedicated graphics cards and lots of upgrade room, a mid-tower case is great. However, for someone who just wants to surf the web and is fine with an i3 and integrated graphics or an AMD APU, great airflow and lots of upgrade room, including the ability to have a dedicated gpu, just isn't needed. Something smaller would work just fine. I haven't seen any good options there, most being from companies I've never heard of.
4livebriand , February 13, 2012 3:54 AMmikeangs2004It doesn't even fit a long graphics card.
If this is like an antec 300, it should be fine. I can put in a 550ti with some space inbetween that and the HD cage, and if the card was longer I would simply have to sacrafice a hard drive slot or two (and it has 6 of them).
4phamhlam , February 13, 2012 4:00 AMI don't know why people complain about bottom mounted PSU. I have carpet in my room but it doesn't mean I'm too stupid to put something under my desktop to give it room to intake air. I rather do that then have a top mounted fan with cable dangling in my case and having it suck up the hot air from the GPU and CPU.
5cobra5000 , February 13, 2012 4:05 AMSheesh, look at all the n00bs that don't even know about modern cases with bottom mounted psu's. This trend started OVER two years ago and allows the psu to draw in fresh, cool air. You've got to love the dorks who cant wait to show you how clueless they are.
3jasonpwns , February 13, 2012 4:09 AMmikeangs2004It doesn't even fit a long graphics card.
It's for a budget build. Most budget builds I see usually use a 560 or 560 ti, not a 580 or 570.
1jimmysmitty , February 13, 2012 4:09 AMjhansonxiI dislike the PSU intake on the bottom. Obviously won't work on a carpeted floor. It would also have problems on a desk where mouse pads, papers, and cables are pushed up against the bottom or slide underneath. A sideways mount with the intake through the side would be better.
True but you should never have yor PC on carpet anyways.
One thing I don't like, and it seems to be this way with all of Antecs cases, is the HDD mounts. Always in the older and harder to get to forward position instead of the side mount, like in all the Corsair and pretty much all CM cases or other high end cases. Even the high end Antec cases have this (902, DF-85).
Its not bad looking, I just dislike some things.
1memadmax , February 13, 2012 5:25 AMNot bad.
Looks just a tad too short lengthwise but thats it.
2blazorthon , February 13, 2012 5:29 AMIt should have been made to fit at least 11" expansion cards because 10.5" is not enough.However, for a budget build that shouldn't be too much of a problem.
At 10.5" maximum you may have trouble fitting a Radeon 6950, but this is intended for budget builders... That is, if you can't fit a $220 graphics card into your budget. At least the 6870 shouldn't have a problem.
It could have trouble with a GTX 570 too, but that's an expensive card. The 560 TI shouldn't have a problem and it's cheap enough for a budget build. The 560 is definitely cheap enough for a budget build, but it uses similar amounts of power to the 560 TI so it's not really a match for the 6870 it competes with, at least in my opinion.
If a buyer wants to keep some space between the card and the edge of the case, then depending on the buyers exact budget I'd go with either a 6870 or a 560 TI here. If you can't fit one of those two cards into a budget than maybe an even cheaper case would be a better option.
Non-reference designs might be able to fit in the case better too, but then they might have trouble fitting into a low budget.
I still say it should have been able to fit at least up to 11" just to be safe.
1Anonymous , February 13, 2012 6:12 AMWait, so you have to remove the right side panel to get at the hard drive bay? The hell is that about? Why make everything BUT the HDD cage accessible from the left side? Silly Antec, you almost had me.
0belardo , February 13, 2012 6:20 AMIf going for the budget market... why bother making this compete against the Antec 300/302? The typical price of the A300 is $50 already.
This "ONE" should be a mini-ATX board and two 5.25 drive bays... keep the 5x 3.5" drive bays. Now that would be something useful. Nowadays... very few people actually need a regular ATX board... and those who do (with SLI/CF) - they have the $$$ to buy a much better case in the $100~200 range.

Never mind that fact that "On Golden Pond" hit movies theaters in 1981, starring Henry Fonda and Kate Hepburn. The love story of Ethel and Norman Thayer that this drama charts remains one of the greats. So much so that even today, when Ethel talks about taking Norman "down to the old town road" to remember it all, there's hardly a dry eye in the audience. Springville's Little Brown Theatre also aims to remind us that Earnest Thompson's play is also a fine comedy. This year's production features three actors from the company's 2004 prouduction, including Bonnie Pence as Ethel Thayer, Bill Brown as Norman Thayer and Kaye Fugal-Arnold as Chelsea. Tristan Gritton as Billy, Jamie Gritton as Bill and Dane Allred as Charlie complete the cast. "Each of us can see a bit of ourselves in the characters in this play," said Brown in press materials. "It is [about] what we all do for the ones we love. We rally and encourage."
"On Golden Pond" in Springville
When • May 4-21, 7:30 p.m.
Where • Little Brown Theatre, 248 S. Main, Springville
Tickets • $8-$10. Call 801-602-0478 or visit www.littlebrowntheatre.com for more information.

text: Some Port Aransas residents say they have a coyote problem, and the City Council is even taking up the issue at their meeting on Thursday night.The City Council will discuss new ways of controlling the coyote population. The City already traps the coyotes in cages and relocates them, but now they're considering even hiring someone to come and shoot the coyotes."It's bad. They come through my yard every night," said Mary Ann Kelley, a Port Aransas resident. "When you're out walking with your dog, they'll come up right behind you. They're not scared of people."Residents who live near the dunes said they are very concerned about the coyote population. Folks who have pets said they see and hear the coyotes on a daily basis, and that the coyotes are brazen. They say the problem has gotten worse in recent years. "Because the more development there is, the less habitat they have to live in, and we were talking about it just the other day," said Sandria Stout, another Port Aransas resident. "They don't have anything left in the dunes to live on. I mean, they had rabbits, you know. There were like ground squirrels and stuff like that. There's nothing left. They have completely gone through all of that, and now there's nothing left except dogs and cats."Stout is worried about her two black cats, and has gone to great lengths to protect them, pulling up planks and creating special ways for the cats to get in and out of the property and escape the coyotes.Pet owners who live near the dunes and are concerned about the coyote population do feel sympathy for the coyotes, and do not like the idea of them having to be shot and killed. Port Aransas Police Chief Scott Burroughs said that, a couple of years ago, there were four or five incidents in which coyotes did bite people who had fallen asleep on the beach. The chief said that, as the Council decides what to do about the issue, they should consider what unintended consequences might be caused by taking action.

I once drove a Ferrari around the Nurburgring. For a person who loves all things automotive this is like a pilgrimage to Mecca; a Hajj for the auto aficionado. Or akin to lusting over a Hollywood starlet, then meeting her in person and having her say 'sure I'll go on a date with you and fix you breakfast in the morning'.
Of all the accomplishments in my life, whether it be fathering children, surviving combat or saving the world from Dr. No, this feat far and away surpasses them. When the Lord finally calls me home, I want the obituary to say nothing more than 'He drove a Ferrari'.
It was part of a media event put on by the famous automaker on a bright sunny day. The gods had smiled, the weather for driving anything was perfect much less being turned loose in a Ferrari F430 on a proper racetrack (cue the chorus of angels singing from on high). My passenger was a representative from Ferrari, to me a Cardinal from the Vatican; he was of course Italian, a young man who looked like he stepped from the pages of GQ. His hair was perfect and he even smelled good. In broken English he pointed out the features in the car, rattled off the specs, made sure I understood the nuances of the machine. I listened politely and patiently, nodding at what I felt were the appropriate times. When he showed me the radio, I gently asked him how to tune it. I then found a station playing some rock music, looked over at his holiness and politely told him to shut up and hold on.
For the next 30 minutes or so I was in Heaven; I had found Nirvana. From a smoke filled burnout start to the inevitable heart wrenching finish, I become lost in the perfect driving machine. The time spent racing over the pavement, desecrated by spray painted graffiti, was the happiest of my -up until that point worthless - life. I had touched the face of God, made love to Marilyn Monroe, became a better man.
To this day while I sometimes can't remember why I walked into the room, I can remember every single second of that drive on that perfect day in Germany.
Since then I have yet to find anything that could even come close to matching the Ferrari. I have driven Corvettes, Shelby Mustangs and even a NASCAR stock car. None gave me the same feeling of being one with the road, of being in a machine built expressly for a driver.
That was until recently when I climbed into the 2013 Scion FR-S. When I sat down, there was a momentary flashback; for a second I was back in the F430. Now before the purists throw up their arms, send the Italian army to invade my quiet piece of suburbia and shoot me for trying to compare a Ferrari to something built in Japan, I'm talking about a feeling. The feeling one gets when they know they are in a car that's built only for a driver. Because while the FR-S is far from being the Italian perfection of motoring, there is no doubt this, like a Ferrari, is a driver's car. It's like a fighter pilot in a jet; you don't really climb in so much as put it on.
That feeling is reinforced when you take to the road as well. The 2.0-liter boxer engine makes a lot of power for its small size, 200 horsepower, but also has only 151 lb-ft of torque. There will be no smoke filled burnouts from a stop light. But oh boy is this car fun. The power to weight ratio makes this one of the most pleasurable cars to drive you'll ever own. You will feel every bit of pavement, smile as the engine sings when you press the throttle and the car holds tight to every curve as you turn the steering wheel.
If you are looking for luxury or to even carry more than one passenger, then move along there is nothing to see here; the backseats are mostly useless and used for things such as extra storage not for hauling people. The interior is simple with only those gauges needed to drive; the placement tells the story with the RPM gauge front and center. There's no sat-nav, no luxurious appointments like leather seats or fancy climate control. In fact anything resembling anything remotely considered luxurious here seems almost an afterthought. In short, it's all business.
That business is one purpose; to drive. And that's something this car does very well. There is enough power to zip through traffic with a grin. Even the paddle shifters in the FR-S actually mean something. I've driven other cars, looked at the paddle shifters and wondered 'why'. In the FR-S they only add to the great driving experience. 'Tap', downshift, pass five or six cars blocking the left lane; 'tap', upshift, to leave them behind. The engineers have done a great job with this car, and at $26,000 it's an affordable choice for anyone who enjoys simply driving. Someone who smiles at the thought of twisting roads, who wants to leave traffic behind, who loves the sound of a proper engine as much as a live performance of the Who when you step on the throttle.
I've tested more luxurious cars, even ones with more power (The Lexus 350 comes to mind), but none have been as much pure fun to drive as the FR-S. Except of course for a Ferrari F430; however this is the real world and most of us could never afford even the insurance on a Ferrari much less afford to have one parked in our driveway for use as a daily driver. The FR-S however is very affordable and for someone looking for a no-nonsense sports car it is the perfect choice. This to me is indeed a poor man's Ferrari, one that can be put to everyday use.
I hated to end my week with the FR-S. Before I climbed out for the last time I swore I could detect a hint of the cologne of a good looking young Italian guy who once survived a ride with a crazy American around the Nurburgring in Germany.

"INSTANTLY TIMELESS! A TRIUMPH!" Variety
From the imagination of internationally renowned animator Michel Ocelot (Kirikou and the Sorceress, Azur & Asmar) comes a magical and visually stunning new film, delighting kids, families and animation fans of all ages.
Silhouetted characters are set off against exquisitely detailed Day-Glo backgrounds bursting with color and kaleidoscopic patterns, as the film weaves together six exotic fables each unfolding in a unique locale, from Tibet, to medieval Europe, and even the Land of the Dead. In Ocelot's celebrated storytelling, history blends with fairytale as viewers are whisked off to visit enchanted lands full of dragons, shape-shifting werewolves, captive princesses, and enormous talking bees – and each fable ends with its own ironic twist.
"A DELIGHT!" - Time Out London

Jewish peace activist Michael Lerner:
'Few, if any, of those misgivings have entered the US media. "There is no major figure in American political life who has been willing to raise the issue of the legitimate needs of the Palestinian people, or even talk about them as human beings," Lerner said. "The organised Jewish community has transformed the image of Judaism into a cheering squad for the Israeli government, whatever its policies are. That is just idolatry, and goes against all the warnings in the Bible about giving too much power to the king or the state."'

Thomas Campbell, 63 was sentenced for disposing stolen property belonging to the City of Clovis Tuesday. Campbell was ordered to pay $20,000 in restitution to the city no later than July 6th.
Campbell was also placed on three years of probation. If Campbell fails to comply with his requirements of probation or pay full restitution, he will be face up to 3 years in prison.
In October of 2010, a Clovis Jury convicted Campbell for unlawfully removing and transporting seven operable stainless steel milk tanks from an abandoned milk plant belonging to Clovis. During trial it was learned that law enforcement received a tip that led to the discovery.
Upon receiving the necessary information to support the charge, the District Attorney's Office met with Mayor Gayla Brumfield, City Manager Joe Thomas and City Attorney David Richards to explain how several milk tanks had been removed from city property and disposed of by Campbell. The city officials advised prosecutors that they were approached in a public meeting about the purchase of the milk tanks, but negotiations had stalled and no agreement or permission was ever given to remove or sell the city's property.
Public records supported the city officials' recollection of the negotiations. Shortly thereafter, investigators discovered that the stolen milk tanks were relocated to a milk plant in Texas, where they were purchased and installed under the impression that Campbell was the rightful owner of the milk tanks.
As a result, Campbell was found guilty of Disposing Stolen Property over $2500, a third degree felony. District Judge Stephen Quinn presided over the proceedings and Deputy District Attorney Ben Cross prosecuted the case for the State.
"Thanks to a citizen's tip to law enforcement and a diligent jury, we able to solve a theft that had essentially gone undetected, convict the defendant of a felony as a result of his underhanded actions, and obtain an order for $20,000 in restitution payable to the citizens of Clovis. All in all, it seems to be a just resolution for everyone involved," District Attorney Matthew Chandler said.

China passes U.S. as world's biggest energy consumer
Monday - 7/19/2010, 1:54pm EDT
China is now the world's biggest energy consumer, knocking the U.S. off a perch it held for more than a century, according to new data from the International Energy Agency. The Paris-based agency, whose forecasts are generally regarded as bellwether indicators for the energy industry, said China devoured 2,252 million tons of oil equivalent last year, or about 4% more than the U.S., which burned through 2,170 million tons of oil equivalent, the Wall Street Journal reports. The oil-equivalent metric represents all forms of energy consumed, including crude oil, nuclear, coal, natural gas and renewable sources such as hydropower.

Deputies said a man who held up a Spartanburg County store Thursday night became upset when he found only a few dollars in the register, so he stole some cigarettes instead.
Spartanburg County deputies said the man robbed the Li'l Cricket store on Boiling Springs Road about 11:35 p.m.
A 5'5" tall man wearing a ski mask entered the store, pulled out a gun and demanded money from the clerk, and told the clerk he wouldn't hurt her if she gave him all her money, deputies said.
But there was only a few dollars inside cash register, deputies said. The robber then demanded all of the cartons of Newport cigarettes, so the clerk put about eight cartons in a shopping bag for him, deputies said.
Deputies tried tracking the man to no avail.
Anyone with information about the robbery is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.

The offer is available to members of the Amtrak guest rewards program on their top teir GrandLuxe trips, and tops out after $100 of free booze. But that's over and beyond dinner wine, which was already free.

Billboard explanation
written by Pavel, August 02, 2007
For those not speaking Czech, the billboard says: "Drinking during the cialis 5 mg buy journey? Points for you." In the Czech Republic, if you violate the traffic rules (like driving after drinking), you get some penalty points. If you collect 12 points, you lose your driving licence for a year or so.

Straight Boys Fucking might seem like an implausible sitename. However, we've all seen sites claiming they convinced straight dudes to strip down and taste cock, or even spread their virgin asses for a good old fucking. I've known gays who claim to be able to seduce straights away from the straight and narrow, but I've always wondered if they weren't just good at making closet cases and big guys feel confident about expressing feelings that were always there.
When we first visited, this question was not put to the test. In fact, you would have thought back then that you stumbled onto your standard straight site, with solo studs, mutual masturbation, threesomes with two guys sharing either a girl or a blowup doll, and chicks getting gangbanged by multiple dicks. However, StraightBoysFucking, like the times, has changed.
Now you'll also get some bisexual action. Sometimes it's as tame as some touching between guys in a circle jerk. Other times, two dudes suck and fuck each other as well as take turns with the same girl. You'll even find scenes where men just have sex with one another in the ultimate gay-for-pay shoot.
There are 75 videos and you'll find that the newer ones offer good-quality playback. The vids are supposed to be exclusive (and they appear to be with a few exceptions). As far as photos go, there used to be many galleries, but I can't find them anywhere now, so you're not getting any photos these days.
None of the videos are dated, so it's tough to tell if the site is updating. The amount of content hasn't changed since our last visit, but the more recent movies don't look like the same ones that were here last time we stopped in. Last time we thought that maybe the website was merely adding back movies they had previously taken down and not actually providing us with anything new and it is possible that is still the case.
On top of the main material, the website also gives you extras. You can check out an e-zine and a bunch of additional videos with solo performers. The bonuses add value, but Straight Boys Fucking would be worth joining even without them.

Round 2 with this site and it has become worse!! only pro is the access to the large number of video files. Site rarely updates,, maybe a new episode a month. They have reverted to "re releasing" old episodes without anything new added. Only good thing is they've marked down their monthly price. Overall not great.

I'm a straight person who enjoys the watching real group sex as this site displays. I got tired of straight videos portray, guys (and allot of the times girls) who wear obviously in their mid-30s and had body builders. This sites models are more authentic. I would guess this would typically turn off someone who is looking for gay gay porn. Some of the models are good and seems to have a real amateur feel to it, they properly just find people off the street and network other models from there.
The CON:
Updates are VERY slow, its was more bi-weekly.
Models both male and female are unattractive in a quarter of the videos to the point I didn't want too watch. If your going to use a girl, get one that looks like a girl.
Camera work in about 40% of the videos wear just plain bad, and cut off way too early, guess they are saving up footage to recycle when things really run dry.
Some of the "straight" models wear obviously gay, and the gay voice behind the camera in many of them was a mega turn off.
NEEDS: Section so well paying supporters can give feedback. Climaxes are boring, same thing video after video, shake things up a little get more creative.
Keep that female voice behind the camera in several of them.
Overall, worth the month I kept on, snag a few of favs. If guys banging a girl and the occasional guy j/o party, mostly non-gay aside from a few touch and curious "try" at oral, this might be a winner.

Looking Through Google Glass Reviews
Matthew is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
A few weeks ago, Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) began the limited, invitation-only, release of its Google Glass smartglasses device. A select few app developers and general consumers, known as 'Explorers,', were given the ability to test the Explorer Edition, a quasi-prototype version of Google Glass. The reviews are now in. What do these Explorers have to say about Google's entry into the emerging space of wearable technology?
2011 called…
At $1,500 a piece for each pair of Explorer Edition smartglasses, you might expect Google Glass to have the latest and greatest in hardware and software. You would be mistaken, however, with Google Glass featuring tech found in 2011-era products. Much like Google's smartphone and tablet products, Google Glass runs Android OS. This version of Android, however, is the older Ice Cream Sandwich version originally released in October of 2011.
The hardware of Google Glass is even older, featuring a Texas Instruments OMAP 4430 processor that was first made available in the first quarter of 2011. It is expected, however, that the final mass-market version to be released in 2014 will feature much more recent technology. For the moment though, the internals of Glass are a little dated by the quick to change technology standards of today.
The good
Usability impressions of Google Glass are mostly positive; being described as a straight forward and intuitive device to operate. When the display is not active, a simple finger tap to the touch sensitive piece of Google Glass will activate the display unit (an upward tilt of the head will accomplish the same for 100% hands-free operation). After the display is active, interactions with Glass occur via voice commands.
Saying "OK Glass" will open a menu of possible options. The user can then command Glass to "Send a message to…," "Record a video," "Give directions to…" or a number of other commands. Although only a quasi-prototype device, Google appears to have already streamlined the operating side of Glass. This is quite encouraging for a product not officially slated to be released until next year.
The not-so good
Google Glass itself lacks any cellular connectivity of its own. Instead, Glass is a supplementary device having to rely on a user's smartphone cellular connection for all of its internet connected functionality. This lack of a cellular connection is likely a limitation of current battery technology, as well as the obvious size and weight restrictions for a device that must rest comfortably on a user's ears and nose (and by all indications, Google Glass is a comfortable device to wear).
This, however, brings us to the most notable complaint of Glass users: the battery life. To be fair to Glass, battery life is a complaint nearly everybody has for any number of portable electronic devices (smartphones, tablets, laptops, etc.). Like other computing devices, battery life for Google Glass can vary greatly depending on the applications being used. Operating under what can be considered "average use", Glass users can expect about five hours of battery life. Certainly not good, but not awful either.
Average use would involve reading occasional emails, taking a few still photos, and recording some short HD videos. Recording longer HD videos can hurt the battery life considerably though, with continuous video recording being reported to drain a fully-charge battery in a mere 30 minutes. If this battery life issue cannot be addressed in the final version, this is potentially huge knock against Google Glass, to be sure.
Potential competitors and collaborators
Google has the first-mover advantage, but other companies' smartglasses strategies are beginning to come into focus (terrible pun intended). Last month, images were leaked of Baidu's (NASDAQ: BIDU) Google Glass competitor, codenamed Baidu Eye. Although Baidu has confirmed the very early development of this device, it is not clear at this point if it will actually be released.
Although less reliable than Baidu's development-confirmation, analysts rumors and patent applications indicate that Microsoft and Sony respectively will be releasing their own Google Glass-like products sometime in the future.
There are many potential Google Glass competitors, but there are a few potential collaborators as well. Luxottica (NYSE: LUX), the world's largest eyewear company, has been developing smartglasses optics technology for 15 years and has many patents in this emerging space. It has been speculated that Google will work with traditional eyewear companies, such as Luxottica, on the official mass-market release of Google Glass.
And while the current Explorer Edition does not support this, Google has confirmed that they will make a modular version of Google Glass that will function with existing prescription and sunglass frames (allowing for any traditional eyeglass frame to become a Google Glass device).
Foolish bottom line
Google Glass has the potential to change the way we interact with our connected devices. That is, if Google can iron-out a few wrinkles. Although the battery life of the Google Glass Explorer Edition leaves a lot to be desired, usability and comfort appear to already be top notch. This seems to be a good first attempt and a promising look at what we can expect from the final version of Google Glass in 2014.

There is an animal in my head
That is dying to be feed
He needs to be set free
In the form of literacy
He has so many things to say
Things to share, words to display
Feeling that are deep within
Kept in hiding like a deadly sin
I have found a way to be free
In the form of writing spree
If I offend I meant no harm
Just innocent words of charm
The animal is caged once again
I don't want you to think I'm inhumane
I will let him free in a little while
When I need to release my style
