The building Lindsay Lohan is temporarily calling home is no stranger to crazy behavior ... because TMZ has learned it's the same building Courtney Love once called home.
Sources tell us ... LiLo's temporary rent free home sits in a primo building in SoHo -- which happens to be a celeb magnet, reportedly housing famous mugs like Lenny Kravitz, Nicole Kidman and Ben Stiller. Courtney Love used to call the building home, but sold her apartment back in 2006 (the photos above are of Love's old pad).
As for the swanky digs, it's valued around $6 million and the building features top-of-the-line amenities ... like 24/7 concierge service, wine cellar, tasting room, and an aromatherapy filled lobby.
To cover up whatever smells may come from its residents.
Neither Lenny Kravitz, Nicole Kidman nor Ben Stiller live there. In fact, Ben Stiller never lived there he just filmed Zoolander there. It took me 5 minutes to figure that out. Pathetic research TMZ.
Off topic: @Bowerbird and others complaining about off topic discussions. First, it's quite sad that one would complain about people asking about the health and well being of others after an extraordinary event. Secondly, Bowerbird the penthouse story was no longer on the 1st page and thus people would have to search for it and the discussion had played out after 24 hours.
What is the Value of a ****roach Condo going for these days in SOHO?
Lindsay is a ****roach!!!
You know the saying, ****roaches moves in but they don't move out!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey , Marven I bet Sally Sue is a lot fresher looking the Lindsay too.........
@rob5150, yep, the will need to gut renovate that unit after she leaves
Hahahahahaha.......looks like Kravitz, Kidman and Stiller will probably vacate.
And crackie just shelled out 3000$ on facial cream! She should've just gotten oil of okay...theres no hope for that face anyhow! Crackie and DUI-NA are just spending and spending waiting for another sap to bail em out. They seriously are repulsive.
For someone with no money horlo is living great.
I think if Courtney Love ever ran into Lindsay somewhere, it is quite possible that she would smack this bitch up.
She's probably living in the apartment of some insanely rich Middle East oil sheik who she has sex with when he's in New York.
Lindsay better think about going into a new line of work as a backup because I think she's pretty much ruined her reputation in Hollywood.
I think the best Lindsay could hope for is getting a few minor roles in some movies or TV. I doubt she's going to be starring in a movie anytime soon .... if ever.
There's far more talented, good looking female actresses out there like Jennifer Lawrence who are going to get those $10+ million a movie roles.
Actresses like Amanda Seyfried who was in "Mean Girls"with Lindsay will get a bunch of roles Lindsay COULD have gotten if she had her sh*t together.
Hey I found another pattycake (no "s" at the end) hence my new name. So this is just another stupid story with no facts backing it.
The Bitch should check into the Chelsea Hotel with a fellow addict and pull a Sid and Nancy. Addicts are just so boring these days.
That creature will have the place in unlivable conditions in no time. Unlivable that is except for other D-List creatures.
Maddy...are you still locked up tight?
Loser living in another Losers old place
Oh please, Lindsay Lohan is not moving squatting anywhere. Another not working backfired.

Contrary to popular belief, I do leave my desk once in a while – but only for the best of causes!
On Thursday September 18th, Cory and I had a fantastic time at the first annual Telpay for Trees Event in support of Tree Canada's Partners in Planting Program.
In working with Telpay, I got to see first-hand their commitment to environmentally responsible and sustainable practices. Last year, they even launched their 'Save a Tree – Plant a Tree" Program to encourage their customers across Canada to adopt similar practices in their own workplaces. The program also recognizes customers who have chosen to use electronic means for their payments instead of cheques, envelopes, stamps and couriers – thereby reducing their carbon footprint. For every 100 electronic bill payments made, Telpay will plant a tree in their honour. How great is that!
At the event, we all worked hard (trust me, I know I did!) planting over 150 trees at FortWhyte Alive. Thanks to Tree Canada, we were all well-equipped and well-educated on how to plant properly. At the Post Plant Reception, we were serenaded by Telpay's own house band Telpay and the Direct Deposits, and combined with the stunning views at Fort Whyte – the evening could not have been better!
Here are a few photos from the event:

Barbara Easterling, president of the Alliance for Retired Americans and past CWA secretary-treasurer, stesses the importance of Social Security, which marks its 78th birthday Aug. 14. "With fewer employers providing defined benefit pensions, stagnant middle class wages making it difficult for families to put aside retirement savings, and the stock market proving to be an uncertain gamble, it is clear that Social Security is more important than ever as the one secure, guaranteed source of retirement income," she writes.
In Paris on Tuesday, AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka warned the leaders and policymakers of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) that the financial austerity measures, like those taken by European nations, destroy jobs, increase inequality and likely feed the public's mistrust of government. "People who still maintain that austerity leads to growth do so for the same reason the Inquisition insisted the sun went around the earth—to maintain themselves in power," Trumka said.
Tom Friedman's May Day column disputing the global top-down economic trends and declaring it a "401(k) world,"manages to be both incomprehensible and incredibly offensive at the same time," writes Felix Salmon.
Did you know that the CEOs of a corporate front group that wants to cut Social Security, Medicare and corporate taxes have stashed more than $418 billion of untaxed corporate profits overseas? Overall it's estimated that U.S. corporations have as much as $1.9 trillion sheltered offshore. That's just one of the troubling pieces of information you'll find in the information-packed AFL-CIO PayWatch website.
The Guild-represented Truthout looks at the erosion of pension promises made to state workers around the country. "If they knew that that promise didn't really mean anything, people might have made different decisions about what job to do," professor and labor historian Joseph Slater said. "This is part of the reason why they decided to dedicate their lives to public service."
In the third quarter of this year, corporate earnings were $1.75 trillion, up 18.6 percent from a year ago. Corporations are currently making more as a percentage of the economy than they ever have since such records were kept. But at the same time, wages as a percentage of the economy are at an all-time low, as this chart shows. (The red line is corporate profits; the blue line is private sector wages.):
One of things that shocked Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists (and past Guild members) Donald L. Barlett and James W. Steele when they were researching their latest book is that nearly 85,000 pension plans have vanished since 1985. While some have been replaced by 401(k) plans, the authors make clear they are less secure and less valuable - - in 2011 the median value of 401(k) accounts in the United States was $17,686, Steele recently told an audience at the AFL-CIO.
An EPI study focusing on Michigan as a case study for the rest of the country reports that a "divergence between pay and productivity and the corresponding failure of middle-class incomes to grow is strongly related to the erosion of collective bargaining." The report includes many useful charts and graphs.
Freelancers -- not just writers, but all temporary and contract workers -- often get stiffed when it comes to payment. Now the Freelancers Union is fighting back, with a website dubbed the 'World's Longest Invoice,' currently tracking more than $12 million owed by deadbeat clients.
Just in time for Tax Day, Poyner has been asking journalists how much their employers reimburse for mileage. It's ranging from a low of 22 cents a miles to the IRS rate of 55.5 cents. Many Guild members are among the more fortunate: contracts at the Associated Press, Baltimore Sun, Boston Globe, Detroit Free Press, New York Times, Wall Street Journal and Washington Post require the IRS rate.

Dear Melon Lady,
I'm sorry that I said "Nice tits" today while you were trying to determine which melon was the most ripe. It was supposed to be a joke, and I was supposed to say "melons" and not "tits." I hope my little faux pas didn't ruin your shopping experience.
Dear Melon Lady,
I should also clarify: when I meant to say "nice melons" to you, it was intended to refer to the cantaloupes you were looking at. After our little exchange, I realized that what I said could be misinterpreted as a double-entendre referring to both the ample size of the fruit and your gigantic boobs. This was not my intention.
I am also terribly sorry for touching them. I have no idea what that was all about.
So in summation, what should have happened today was me saying "nice melons" while you were holding melons, and you should have said "Thank you" and that was it.
Dear Melon Lady,
I'm sorry to keep bothering you like this, but every time I replay the events in my head I realize that there are still some parts of our exchange today that may need further clarification.
The reason I was naked this afternoon was because today is laundry day and I had run out of clean clothes to wear. If, instead of screaming incessantly, you had looked inside my shopping cart, you would have noticed a value-sized bottle of detergent and a copy of Tiger Beat.
I hope we can chalk this up to a simple misunderstanding, and continue with our lives. I know that an old woman like you has little time left on earth and needs to make the most of it. I hope this explanation will give you sufficient closure and we can both move on from here.
P.S. Sorry about my erection.

Best Places To Work competition is on
By Jessica Tuggle
INDIAN RIVER COUNTY - Employers and business leaders from Indian River County gathered at Riverside Theatre last week to hear how they can improve their workplace culture.
The Indian River County Best Places to Work program by Workforce Solutions held a networking breakfast and guest speaker on May 24.
Mayda Sotomayor-Kirk, CEO of Vero Beach-based Seald Sweet International, encouraged her peers to be the example of what they want from their employees.
"I worked alongside them, and I wouldn't ask them to do anything I wouldn't do," Ms. Sotomayor-Kirk said of how she helped transition the produce company from a nonprofit citrus co-op to a private, for-profit entity.
She cited her parents, political refugees from Cuba, as the ones who built a strong work ethic within her, an ethic that has taken her from an invoice-stuffer to the CEO of an international business.
"Never give up and never be afraid of failure or hard work," Ms. Sotomayor-Kirk said.
Best Places to Work is a national program developed to provide a confidential forum for local employers to participate in an evaluation of various local workplace best practices and programs, according to a press release.
Participating in the program is free for all Indian River County employers.
The standards are useful for employers to compare themselves to other area businesses of similar size, but the best use for the data collected during the process is in the human resources department, said Gerry Hoeffner, president of Personnel Dynamics Consulting Group, who developed the company evaluation tool used in the program.
The application process includes a questionnaire employers fill out with 37 different measurements of business practices. Employers answer questions about orientation, employee benefits, profit sharing, retirement programs, turnover rate, growth, training and promotions.
The answers are weighted by a computer program and the top best places to work are chosen, Mr. Hoeffner said.
Applications are due Aug. 3 and an awards luncheon will be held on Oct. 11.
Setting high standards creates an environment where every business is striving to be the best they can be, which is good for the company, the clients and the competition, Mr. Hoeffner said.
Data gathered from the application can show a business where they are doing well, and where they can improve, he said.
"It's not about perfection, it is about progression," Mr. Hoeffner said.
Melody Ipolito of Kmetz, Nuttall, Elwell, Graham, a bookkeeping, accounting and tax preparation company in Vero Beach, submitted an application last year for her company and was one of four companies highlighted in the awards ceremony.
One of the items the winners receive is a banner to display on their place of business, announcing their accolade to clients and prospective clients, Ms. Ipolito said.
Having the banner proclaiming your business as the best is excellent marketing and makes a difference in who chooses to work with the company and who seeks to employ her company, she said.
Their office is located beachside and their banner has been battered by the weather, making it difficult to be seen, but that's not going to stop anything, she said.
"We're getting a new sign," Ms. Ipolito said, drawing laughs and applause from the crowd.

Thorzdad: ... Unless Jesus Christ himself descends onto Capitol Hill, carrying 8x10 glossies and video of Alito enjoying a lunch of ground infant on toast with his good friend Osama, the appointment is a lock.Only if it's a pre-birth infant. Nobody cares what you do with the buggers once they're out of the womb.
11:40 Kennedy reminds Alito that Chertoff took exception, describes Chertoff's dissent as eloquent. Describes various studies of Alito's record, study indicating that Judge Alito rules against individuals 84% of the time. Returns to McCain anti-torture amendment, says nice things about McCain.posted by delmoi at 9:03 AM on January 10, 2006
12:13 Grassley says that some constitutional provisions are so vague that some judges think they can do whatever they want; wants to know what Alito thinks of this approach. Alito rejects this approach. Says constitution contains general principles, but judiciary has to be very careful not to inject its own views.Hur hur, what a suprise.
We do not say that the Fourth Amendment forbids a warrant from cross-referencing other documents. Indeed, most Courts of Appeals have held that a court may construe a warrant with reference to a supporting appli- cation or affidavit if the warrant uses appro- priate words of incorporation, and if the sup- porting document accompanies the warrant... But in this case the warrant did not incorpo- rate other documents by reference, nor did either the affidavit or the application (which had been place under seal) accompany the warrant. Hence, we need not further explore the matter of incorporation.Id. at 157. In Doe v. Groody, the issue that divided the panel was the degree of technical precision that should be demanded in determining whether a warrant adequately incorporates an attached application or affidavit. Indeed, if the majority had concluded that the affidavit had been properly incorporated, then the search of the 10-year old girl would have been perfectly legal.
The appellants in this case did not exhibit incompetence or a willingness to flout the law. Instead, they reasonably concluded that the magistrate had authorized a search of all occupants of the premises where: (1) that is what the application sought; (2) the affidavit asserted that there was probable cause for such a search; (3) the warrant expressly incorporated the affidavit on the issue of probable cause, (4) the language of the warrant was drafted to confer authorization to search all occupants, and (4) the magistrate signed the warrant without modification.Is he right? Reasonable minds can differ on whether the warrant effectively incorporates the affidavit. The majority concluded that the difference in the scope between the warrant and the affidavit was significant enough to disregard the language in the warrant incorporating the affidiavit. Alito disagreed. You might not like the result of Alito's analysis, but it's not clearly wrong.
ALITO: She represented herself initially, and we take those very seriously. We give those just as much consideration, in fact more consideration in many respects than we do with the cases without lawyers because we take into account that somebody who is representing himself or herself can't be expected to comply with all the legal technicalities. But, for whatever reason, our court system for handling the monitoring of recusals in these pro se cases is different from the system that we use in the cases with lawyers, and maybe that's because recusal issues don't come up very often in pro se cases. But in any event, in a case with a lawyer, before the case is ever sent to us, we receive what are known as clearance sheets, and those are -- it's a sheet of -- it's a stack of papers, and it lists all the cases that the clerk's office is thinking of sending to us. It lists the parties in each case, and it lists the lawyers in each case, and it says, Do you need to recuse yourself in any of these cases? And this is the time when the judges -- and this is the time when I focus on the issue of recusal. And I look at each case, I look at the parties, I look at the lawyers, and I ask myself, Is there a reason why I should not participate in the case? Now, because this case, the Monga case, was a pro se case, it didn't come to me with clearance sheets. I just received the briefs, and it had been through our staff attorney's office. They take a first look at the pro se cases, and they try to make sure -- they try to translate the pro se arguments into the sort of legal arguments that lawyers would make, to help the pro se litigants. And they give us a recommended disposition and a draft opinion. And when this came to me, I just didn't focus on the issue of recusal. And I sat on the initial appeal in the case.posted by monju_bosatsu at 8:39 AM on January 11, 2006
ALITO: And then after the case was decided, I received a recusal motion. And I was quite concerned because I take my ethical responsibilities very seriously. So I looked into the question of whether I was required, under the code, because I just wanted to see where the law was on this. Was I required, under the code of conduct, to recuse myself in this case? And it seemed to me that I was not. And a number of legal experts, experts on legal ethics, have now looked into this question, and their conclusion is: No, I was not required to recuse. But I didn't stand on that because of my own personal policy of going beyond what the code requires. So, I did recuse myself. And, not only that, I asked that the original decision in the case be vacated -- that is, wiped off the books -- and that the losing party in the case, the appellant, Ms. Monga, be given an entirely new appeal before an entirely new panel. And that was done. And I wanted to make sure she did not go away from this case with the impression that she had gotten anything less than an absolutely fair hearing. And then, beyond that, I realized that the fact that this had slipped through in a pro se case pointed to a bigger problem, and that was the absence of clearance sheets. So, since that time, I have developed my own forms that I use in my own chambers. And, for pro se cases now, there's -- I have a red sheet of paper printed up, and it's red so nobody misses it. And when a pro se case comes in, it initially goes to my law clerks. And they prepare a clearance sheet for me in that case and then they do an initial check to see whether they spot any recusal problem. And if they don't, then there's a space at the bottom where they initial it. And then it comes to me, and there's a space at the bottom for me to initial to make sure that I focus on the recusal problem. And in very bold print at the bottom of the sheet, for my secretary, it says: No vote is to be sent in in this case unless this form is completely filled out.
ALITO: So there are a number of internal checks now in my own office to make sure that I follow my own policy of going beyond what the code requires.
Affirmed.After the order was vacated and reconsidered by a new panel, that panel issues a new order, Monga v. Ottenberg, 95 Fed. Appx. 463 (3d Cir. April 7, 2004) (unpublished). The new order states, in its entirety:
Affirmed.Although I don't know the details of how this case, or any other case in the Third Circuit, was handled, this is entirely consistent with the approach to summary cases with which I'm familiar. An appeals court has basically two calendars: an oral argument calendar, and a summary calendar. Cases which are more complex or which might benefit from oral argument are placed on the oral argument calendar, while cases which are straightforward and appear to be easily resolved under existing law are placed on the summary calendar. There is no oral argument for cases on the summary calendar. Often the staff attorneys office will write a short memo and recommendation on the case, and then pass the case on to the panel for review. These cases are then typically divided among a panel of three judges. Sometimes the summary cases go straight to the judge, but often the cases are reviewed by the judge's law clerks. The clerks examine the case and either draft a short opinion for the judge's review, or recommend that it be moved to the oral argument calendar.
monju_bosatsu: As an aside, the Vanguard is a loser for the Democrats. If they really wanted to attack Alito, they would attack his pattern of deference to the Executive, and stick to it.You're probably right, but it's actually the Vanguard thing that bothers me more about him. Alito is an ethical cypher -- he seems to have a convenient memory w.r.t. these things. Put that together with his pattern of deference to power (in general, not specifically to the Executive), and the guy worries the hell out of me.
amberglow: .... (Dinesh D'Souza) ....... fortunately for Dinesh, CAP had failed in its bid to cap [sic] minority admissions. Otherwise the editor of the Daily Princetonian in 1985 would have been Watson Hungerford III, a member of that "relatively homogenous group" of men that made up D'Souza's lauded "elite."
[Appologies -- work intruded on my blogging duties. I think Alito was just explaining whether or not he would overrule Roe v. Wade and how he would rule on the President's authority to engage in warrantless electronic surveilance. But I may be mistaken... back to live coverage]Oh, that's helpful. Thanks.

Senators Leahy and Kennedy have made some fundamental mistakes, and I'm going to try to correct them both:posted by monju_bosatsu at 8:07 AM on January 12, 2006
1) Leahy: "Can the congress pass a law taking jurisdiction over first amendment issues away from the Supreme Court?" The real answer is, "Sure it can. And the Supreme Court can rule such a law (or any law you jackasses pass) unconstitutional."
2) Kennedy: "Can the congress pass laws that prevent the president from firing members of the executive branch?" Answer: ditto.
Basically, once I'm on the court, I am MUCH MUCH more powerful than you are. Each of you makes up 1% of the people that pass laws, and I make up over 11% of the people that can slap you silly for passing dumb ones.
Oh, please, PLEASE keep talking about Vanguard. I can answer this in my sleep now.
Turning to the "unified executive" theory, Sessions asks a hard question: "There are only three branches, aren't there?"posted by monju_bosatsu at 9:53 AM on January 12, 2006
He knows that he, individually or as a fiduciary, or his spouse or minor child residing in his household, has a financial interest in the subject matter in controversy or in a party to the proceeding, or any other interest that could be substantially affected by the outcome of the proceeding;"Financial interest," in turn, is defined as:
"ownership of a legal or equitable interest, however small, or a relationship as director, adviser, or other active participant in the affairs of a party, except that: ... [o]wnership in a mutual or common investment fund that holds securities is not a "financial interest" in such securities unless the judge participates in the management of the fund;Because, as I understand it and as the discussion to which you linked explains, Alito, as an individual fund holder, does not participate in the management of the Vanguard Group, he does not have a "financial interest" within the meaning of the disqualification statute.
dios: You called Alito "not very bright."Why? Really: Why does having an opinion on the judge's intellectual capabilities, and expressing that opinion in a relatively value-netural way (as opposed to, say, "dumb as a post" or "an idiot", which would be more in tune with the current level of political discourse in America) in and of itself mean that you're "a blind partisan"?
That makes you a blind partisan.
dios: You are kidding, right? You realize that these people are far, far, far more intelligent than you and 99% of this country....You do understand, dios, that whether they're brighter than me (or you, which by your own comparison they clearly must be) is not relevant?
dios: This ends it. The proverbial nail in the coffin.Oh, please. There was never any possibility that Alito would not be approved. You know that as well as anybody, and you're as guilty of dragging out the drama as amberglow or anybody else on this thread.
me & my monkey: You seem to be confusing rhetorical skills and self-presentation with intelligence. That's a big mistake, unless you want to hire a politician or a salesman.Maybe, but...not really. Rhetorical skills are generally a pertty good indicator of analytical skills. If you can't clearly communicate what you think -- especially in a rhetorically focused area like high-level jurisprudence -- then you probably can't think very clearly in the first place.
I think that the word 'liberty,' in the 14th Amendment, is perverted when it is held to prevent the natural outcome of a dominant opinion, unless it can be said that a rational and fair man necessarily would admit that the statute proposed would infringe fundamental principles as they have been understood by the traditions of our people and our law.posted by monju_bosatsu at 4:48 PM on January 13, 2006

People Complaining about Madonna being late have clearly never heard of an opening act before. If they let you inside at 8pm, the show doesn't start at 8pm for ANYBODY. There is a 30-40 (sometimes up to an hour) grace period for people to get drinks, buy food, arrive at the venue. The the opener comes out plays for a while, then they have a break to change the stage over. THEN and ONLY THEN does the headliner come out. Madonna is never scheduled to be on stage before 10. So when she comes on at 10:30, that is not 2 1/2 hour late. Its like her show is your first ever concert, jeez.
So true + this was my first concert

Byron Mann shoots his way into TV screens with Arrow
Text & Photos: Shah Salimat
Fans of DC Comics book Green Arrow, rejoice! The action-adventure comic book about an arrow-wielding crime-fighter has been a runaway hit in the United States, attracting 4.14 million viewers in its debut episode.
Now, the vigilante series is making its debut in Singapore and actor Byron Mann spoke exclusively with xinmsn on December 17, 2012, at Heat Ultralounge in Royal Plaza on Scotts about his character in the series. Byron plays Yao Fei, an archer who lead role Oliver Queen (played by Stephen Amell) meets after he is stranded on an island following a ship accident.
A series of mysterious encounters soon follow as the two strangers try to get to know each other and their motivations. Byron lets us in on a secret: he and Stephen Amell share the same chemistry off-camera. "We are friendly, very polite and nurturing to each other but we keep a certain mystery between us so that we can reflect that energy on camera."
"Let's just say that Stephen and I don't call each other at 12 midnight to share our deepest, darkest secrets," Byron laughed heartily. He spoke about having only one hour to practice archery from the Canadian Olympic team before shooting '15 arrows in 30 seconds' on set in the woods of Vancouver.

No, YOU caused your wife to leave you. Learn to prioritize. :/ You can play too much, and ignore other responsibilities. That's not a game's fault. That is yours.
Not to be harsh, but I hate when people blame their lack of self control resulting in losing things supposedly important to them on a game. We have to take responsibility for our own actions and not try to push the blame off on something else. :/
/end lecture
Uhm unless you were just being a troll, and in that case...I apologize for feeding you. :D
Perhaps the parent post was a jest, but I can relate to the statement. My wife really did leave me, but for other reasons with WoW being just one of the factors. Maybe had I walked away from the game sooner, she would not have left; I'll never know.
And before I write a country song, I'll cut to the chase... Yes, most people CAN play wow comfortably and maintain a Real Life... but others, like me, have addictive natures and need to know when to walk away, or get help, before it is too late. Had I been the sort to experiment with alcohol or drugs, I probably would have got hooked to those. Fortunately, or unfortunately, I chose WoW and for me, it became exactly like a drug.
And now to answer the topic - I quit cold turkey a couple months ago and realized that I had nothing to show for the last three years of wow and progression raiding except a marriage that almost failed (she did come back...) 10 extra pounds, and an overwhelming sense that I lost a chunk of my life that I'll never get back.
I still 'like' wow and I still keep up with my guild through our website, but for me it's best viewed from a distance.
@Mindee I'm sorry but your thinking here is just plain wrong. If someone asks "how has cocaine changed your life?" an appropriate response might be "it caused me to lose my spouse, my health and my job." No credible addiction counselor researcher will tell you that addiction is a problem of will power and self control. We have many brain imaging studies and decades of clinical histories that tell us otherwise very clearly.
WoW and gaming or Internet addictions are a real thing. The structure of MMO games like wow triggers a cascade of dopamine in your brain very much like like the addictive effects of cocaine and heroin. Not everyone responds the same way, and there are obviously distinctions to be drawn between exogenous and endogenous sources of neurochemicals. However, the things that gaming does to your brain can, for some people, be just as real and uncontrollable an addiction as a drug.
I play WoW and I enjoy it. The fact some people get addicted doesn't make it bad or evil. This is a plea for tolerance, education and understanding of the real problem that is addiction. Part of recovering from an addiction is taking responsibility for your actions. Another part is recognizing the addiction as not a weakness of will, but as a function of brain chemistry.
Being an addict doesn't make a bad person, it makes you a sick person who needs help. If you (or anyone you know) has a problem with gaming or any other addiction, get help. People do get better.
Don't listen to all the people who claim you just need more will power: they are ignorant and wrong.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
If I were rating this school on the staff I would give it a five star, but I cannot rate any higher than a two. I had three children complete their elementary classes at Lois Allen and a fourth complete through the fourth grade, I thought this was a really good school until I had to move my youngest to another school within Washoe County. My child was getting A's and B's but when we moved he dropped to D's and F's. I thought it was due to the move but when I looked into it I realized it was Lois Allen that failed my son. The school is behind in curriculum compared to other schools. I understand most of the parents speak little English and that is where a large percentage of teaching goes (translating or teaching English, but the other students are falling behind. Your children are suffering, please look into this for the benefit of your children and our future leaders.
I think Lois Allen is a wonderful school. The principal is just wondeful. The teachers are great. This will be our 4th year and we have a kindergardener who just started. This schools teachers and staff go above and beyond for all the student and their familys. Education is top priority of the teachers just as it should be! Lois allen has an open door policy meaning parents are always welcome to visit any time. What wonderful school, iam a proud parent of two Lois Allen students
My students have attended this school starting this schol year due to my principal not granting variences before school started. I chose this school (their father's zone school) over my own zone school due to the all day kinder they offer. My children are in 2nd, kinder and the PreK program. My 2 youngest get speach services. The teachers all communicate well with me via e-mail. My children are excelling. My 5 year old is always using her new vocabulary words in proper context and loves to sing the songs she is learning. My 7 year old loves math and gets the reading support she needs to be a more confident reader. My 3 year old son is talking in sentences and LOVES going to school! I am very satisfied with this school and the administration seems great! I also like the way they have ability group the students in their classes. some people frown on this approach, but as a student that felt held back in class because of struggling students, I highly support it.
Some of the staff should move on, but others are just great. Teachers need to know that it is about the student, not their cleavage, style, or them at all.
Lois Allen has been a wonderful school for my son. He began their K program on the recommendation of the County Kindergarten Coordinator, and we have not been disappointed since! They have worked consistently to challenge him, to motivate him, and to keep his love for education intact. The principal has heard any concern and responded with positive feedback and results. I am truly impressed with the progress the school has made over recent years, and they are clearly a place of excellence.

The team also returns 61 percent of its tackles from last season, including leading tackler, junior linebacker Cristian Sarmento who notched 81 total tackles a year ago with 5.5 tackles for loss.

New Season Features New Coaches
During the off season, head coach Scott Downing added five new coaches to his staff. Dan Daniel, Dennis Darnell, Pete Darnell, Jordan Fenner and Kendrick Shaver all joined the Bears as coaches, while Justin Jantz was added to the team as the director of football operations.
Daniel will serve as a defensive assistant coach. He most recently spent time as the defensive coordinator of the Hamburg Sea Devils, which won the World Bowl over Frankfurt in the NFL Europe Championship.
Dennis Darnell was named the team's offensive coordinator and brings over 20 years of coaching experience to the table, including head coaching stints at East Central University in Ada, Oklahoma and Missouri Western State and Republic High School and Sullivan High School, both in Missouri.
Pete Darnell will handle the quarterback coaching duties for the Bears. He joins the staff from Tarleton State, where he coached the wide receivers for six months.
Fenner is in charge of the wide receivers and spent last season at Southern Oregon University, where he worked primarily with the tight ends and special teams.
Shaver will be responsible for the secondary after handling the same duties last year at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M. He also was the recruiting coordinator and monitored the academics at Northeastern.
Scouting The Hawai'i Warriors
Hawai'i enters the season ranked 23rd in the AP poll and 24th in the USA Today Preseason poll and the favorite to win the Western Athletic Conference title this year. In 2006, the Warriors were 11-1 and winners of the Sheraton Hawai'i Bowl.
Hawai'i returns 15 starters from last year's team with six offensive, eight defensive and one specialist coming back. The Warriors traditionally utilize a Run-and-Shoot offensive formation and a 4-3 defensive formation under head coach June Jones.
Those six offensive returning starters helped lead Hawai'i to the number one ranked offense in college football a year ago and senior quarterback Colt Brennan led the nation in seven statistical categories and broke 18 NCAA records in 2006.
On defense, the Warriors return eight from last season's team which held opponents to 24.1 points per game.
Hawai'i Head Coach June Jones
June Jones enters his ninth season with the Warriors sporting a career record of 64-40. He is the 20th coach in Hawai'i history and his teams have been ranked in the top five in the nation in passing offense each season. In his first eight years with UH, the team has advanced to five games and he has coached 10 All-Americans.
He also led the 1999 Warriors to the WAC co-champion and he was named the National Football Coach of the Year by CNN/Sports Illustrated that season. He has had 16 NFL draft picks, broken 380 school records and 45 NCAA records and mentored 56 all-WAC performers.
The Hawai'i Connection
Northern Colorado offensive coordinator Dennis Darnell has a close connection with Hawai'i offensive line coach Dennis McKnight. McKnight played for Darnell at Drake University and then the pair coached together at Southeast Missouri State in 1981.
NC redshirt freshman Andrew Dunkley also played high school football at Long Beach Poly with Hawai'i senior offensive lineman Hercules Satele. Dunkley was a freshman at Poly during Satele's senior season.

10 Office Design Tips to Foster Creativity
Don't Rush In
It's tough to really design your own office for the lean start-up years, which are often spent in shared offices, co-working spaces, or coffee shops. How do you know when you're ready to graduate to an office of your own? "One is stability. How much do you know about the business in a year or two or three?" Kuske says. "Two, how important it is for you to have your own culture and identity? Most businesses hit a point where being part of a big social network is no longer good because they need their own identity. Three is confidentiality."

We wanted to shoot the scene where she's plotting her revenge of Bjurman and I wanted the idea that her world literally gets turned upside down.

There's a wonderful Rooney moment coming up where she tells him that she understands exactly what is asked of her and she's already committed it all to memory. And I love the way she just points at her head for a second like, "I got that." And then when he insists that she take these papers, instead of resisting him anymore, she just takes them and then drops them on the nearest chair. [laughs] She did that to me, like, once or twice a day. -David Fincher (TGWTDT audio commentary)

Hey! My name is Eilis, I live in Philadelphia, PA and I'm an 18 year old college student. I'm about 5'3, I'm roughly 180-190 and I'm a size 14-16/38H.
I've always been a bit bigger than average; but I've also always had an athletic build which made it easier for me to stay in shape. When I was about 13, I started to develop breasts and that made it really hard for me to run and play the sports that I used to (gynmastics, dancing, soccer etc).
By the time I was 16, i had gained about 70+ pounds, and I was a 38G. I was really upset, I didn't know what to do and it really took a toll on me. I would obsess over everything I ate and limit myself to an unsustainable amount of calories a day. I would try my hardest to work out but it was just so difficult- a lot of my weight was muscle and it was really hard to lose/sports bras only do so much lol.
As I got older, I realized that I needed to focus on being healthy, and not the number on the scale or the number on my jeans. I realized that this is my body type, and that's something I will have to live with. Why try to change something about yourself when there's nothing really wrong to begin with? So what if was "plus sized" or whatever you want to call it- I was still the same person.
My boyfriend of 3 years has been by my side the entire time, and he loves every single one of my curves unconditionally- so why shouldn't I?
I've lost a little bit of weight since my initial gain- but I've stopped weighing myself altogether. Instead of struggling to be thin, or obsessing over my flaws I am learning to embrace, love and honor every curve on my body- and it's safe to say I am SO much happier now.

I can confirm "ineedawoman" and its consistent with another site. Use 1/2 teaspoon salt in one cup warm water. Gargle with it being sure to get ALL your tongue coated. Stick it out carefully being sure it doesn't pour down your throat. Twice an evening for 3 days. Simple solution for something that was freaking me out. Thanks to all who helped and I hope this works for you.
Can you eat solids still? if so, it is nothing to worry about, prob just esophagitis.

try gargaling salt and brushing ur teeth.

worry if it doesn't go away in 2 weeks (that is how long ur body should take to fight off an infection.)
Tonsil stones.
Have you eaten any dolphins recently???
Acid reflux?
A cold or flu.....Unless of course you have been naughty!! lol

|She falls to her knees before Him, tears stinging her eyes as she tries desperately not to cry. She forces out her words past the lump in her throat. "How can You still call me Beloved when I've messed up so horribly?" The strain of holding back tears forces her voice into a whisper. "Oh, my Love. I'm so sorry." A gasping sob escapes her guard and she can do nothing but stare down at the massive velvety paws before her, as she waits for Him to speak.
"Have you forgotten My grace?"
Aslan questioned, though in the tenderest of intonations. His large tail was batting rhythmically back and forth along the tall blades of yellow grass. The autumn sun beamed against His fur, reflecting an even a greater light. His daughter knelled before Him, suppressing heaves. If only she would look into His eyes…
"Daughter of Eve, it is true you have sinned. You have offended and scorned Me. But it is My grace that will redeem you. It is nothing you have done, but all I have done. And I will continue to keep you. I do so to reveal My glory, that all may know I am the King. The Great King. And because I love you."

Design mStand for MacBook Pro
Tech Test Lab Review
I've been suffering from some mild symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome in last month or so, and I knew part of the problem was how I had set up my laptop in front with an additional LCD monitor on the side. Hunching down while looking at the screen while typing while also turning slightly to my left resulted in an ergonomic strain. I knew I had to change the layout of my workstation, beginning with how and where I'd position my laptop, and that's where the Rain Design mStand came to the rescue...
Made of cast aluminum, sand-blasted to a silver anodized finish, the Rain Design mStand for MacBook Pro is designed to perfectly complement the Apple designed laptop to a "T", with a curved base, a wire routing hole in the rear to keep wire clutter in check, an opening in the front to unlatch open the laptop easy, and a finish that blends in with the computer to create a seamless single unit.
The elegant design mimics Apple's aluminum construction, but it isn't all just for looks sake, as the aluminum helps dissipate any heat emanating from the laptop while on the stand (if I wanted to go all out, I guess I could accessorize with their aluminum wrist rest too, but I like my Wacom Bamboo too much).
Also at this height (the mStand increases screen height by 6"), my laptop now is at an improved ergonomic height for extended use. Although, I've decided currently as a precaution to use the larger external monitor as the primary screen, positioning it directly in front of me with a wireless keyboard and keeping the laptop closed, which has just about eliminated any pain previously felt. It's interesting to note how just a few degrees turned this way, a few inches seated up, down or to the side can make all the difference in your health, and the mStand is an aesthetic and practical aid to keep your ergonomic setup in ideal position. No complaints here...just praise for a simple product that has become a welcome part of my home office almost immediately.
6 Comments
just picked one of these up last week after yearning for one since they were released. build quality is top notch and it matches my MBP perfectly. still getting used to the increased height, but i agree it's amazing what the slightest adjustments can do.
Will post pictures of my new set up in the next few days.
Keeping my laptop at that height on a desk would create an ergonomic problem for me. I'm 164cm tall and I'd have to reach up to type on the keyboard.
^^^ you're not supposed to type on the laptop's keyboard with the mstand. you're supposed to connect an external keyboard.
ooo that's nice.
I am just popping in to say how much I like Rain Design. I've been using their iLap stand with my little MacBook. It's great on the sofa (no more beet-red thighs!), and it elevates the laptop to a nice height if you remove the wrist/knee pad and set the stand on a table. Sort of pricy, maybe, but it works SO so well.

A lot of men want to know good questions to ask a girl. This is because they've been burned so many times in the past because they asked the wrong questions. Maybe they still feel the stinging slap that they got just because they unknowingly asked a rude and indecent question.
You have to know that women are like appliances. They have buttons and you have to know how to push these buttons so that they'll be "turned on". Turn them on and you already know what will happen.
The question is, how exactly do you push their buttons correctly? You have to ask the right questions! But first thing's first. Usually, you have to proactively search for women. There are very few cases wherein a woman will come to you. It doesn't matter if you know the right questions to ask if you don't know where to meet women. You won't be able to land a great date.
Here are some great places where you can meet women:
- Online
- Church
- Businesses (namely their staff)
- Sophisticated events like wine tasting events
- Local classes and activities
Sure, you can still meet a lot of women in bars. However, women in bars fully-expect to be hit on. You'll lose the element of surprise which is very important when it comes to asking questions.
Here's a good tip. You should ask a question in such a way that it's not too obvious that you're hitting on her. This way, you won't get rejected at once. Remember, you usually just need to get a foot inside the door. Having a door slammed in your face before you can even start is something that you wouldn't want.
Questions to Ask a Girl
Here's a list of some great questions that you can ask a girl:
1. What did you do last summer?
Asking her what she did last summer is a harmless question. She will immediately put her guards down because she'll feel that you're just interested in how her summer went. Best of all, you'll get a lot of takeaways. For example, you'll know her hobbies. If she went camping and it shows from the way that she tells the stories that she enjoyed it, you can suddenly develop a love for camping and have something in common. If you do have camping stories, you can share them as well as soon as she's finished. But remember, it's all about her at this time. You just need to establish that you have something in common.
2. Let me guess, you love dogs?
Let's put it this way. It's either she loves dogs or not so you have a 50-50 chance that you're correct. If she loves dogs, then she'll be surprised and she'll ask you how you knew. Then you can say something like she gives off that vibe of being a dog person. That's more than enough to get her attention. But what if she hates dogs? She'll also be interested to know why you thought that she's a dog person.
3. Can I try on your glasses?
Again, another harmless question and there's no reason for her to say no. If she asks why, just tell her that you like her glasses. As soon as you try it on, say something like "Does it look sexy on me like how it looks sexy on you?" It's a little bit daring. But sometimes, you have to kick things up a notch.
4. Do you have any tattoos?
This is reserved for later on in the conversation. If she has tattoos, ask her if you can see them. Also, ask them what they mean.
Follow Up
These are just some questions. The important thing is for you to follow them up with more questions depending on where the conversation is going. With a little bit of practice, you'll be a master at asking the right questions!

Our Interviews at the 'Breaking Dawn Part 2′ Premiere in LA!
Together with Team Twilight, Twifans, Twilighters Anonymous, and EdwardandBella.com had the wonderful opportunity to interview everyone on the red carpet at the Breaking Dawn Part 2 premiere in Los Angeles on November 12th!
We were all at the end of the press line. The last to interview the Taylor Lautner, Robert Pattinson (grouped together with all the Twilight fansites), producer Wyck Godfrey, screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg, author Stephenie Meyer, Nikki Reed, Kellan Lutz, Fivel and Boo Boo Stewart, Chaske Spencer, Charlie Bewley, Jackson Rathbone, Tinsel Korey, music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas, Mia Maestro, Toni Trucks, Noel Fisher, Rami Malek, Angela Sarafyan, Justin Chon, Valorie Curry, Andrea Gabriel, Dave Wilton from A Boy and His Kite and other celebrites Jacqueline Emerson (Foxface, The Hunger Games), Max Burkholder (Parenthood), Jaleel White (via Hypable), and LA Clippers Trey Thompkins. We made history being the last people to interview them on the red carpet at the last Twilight Saga installment Breaking Dawn Part 2! *cries*
Taylor was sooo handsome and nice. That smile. *sigh* Still pinching myself. Rob was further down from me *sad face*, but I got a nice profile view of the jaw! *happy face* He said he really needed to use the restroom. LOL! Kristen was the very last person there on the red carpet. The movie had already started and she was still signing autographs for fans and couldn't stop for interviews. But her wonderful publicist Ruth noticed us and our sad faces and let Kristen pose for photos for us before she went in. *jumps up and down* I probably would have been like "buhbuhbuhbuh" anyway if I had to ask her something. LOL!
Wyck surprised me how much of a fan he was. I knew he had to like the Saga being the producer and all, but he is truly a fan. Melissa was great. She had some great answers. I was so friggin nervous with Stephenie. I almost couldn't think. They said "One question that's it!" And she looked directly at me. O.O She said 'No pressure at all" LOL! I got a chance to thank her for all my Twilight friends I've met through out the years all over the world. Seriously flove you all. Had to thank the queen bee for that.
Nikki almost made us cry. BTW, she has the most gorgeous light brown eyes. Mesmerizing! Kellan is the sweetest lovable guy ever! Have gummies on you if you get a chance to meet him. The man will love you forever! His girlfriend Sharni is absolutely gorgeous. Jackson is the man! Jasper was reading Keith Richard's Life during the clip when Alice 'sees' the Volturi coming. I think I kinda surprised him with my stealth viewing of that clip. LOL! Mia is gorgeous and an absolute sweetheart. Andrea and her sister were wonderful and so funny. I freaking love that girl Toni. She will definitely bring a smile to your face. We better see that dance off on the DVD! Boo Boo and Fivel, you know that scene, right? LOL! That was a fun interview. You know? Charlie is soooo handsome! Kinda melted with his sexy self and his sexy accent. Valorie is adorable. She rocks that pixie cut. Tinsel is BEAUTIUFL and so sweet. Alexandra is the queen of music talent. Without her, we would not have the awesome Twilight Saga soundtracks. Love Jacqueline Emerson from The Hunger Games! At the after party we talk on and on about Breaking Dawn Part 2 with her and Amandla Steinberg.
Enjoy the videos! And it was my frist time on the red carpet, so be easy on me. LOVED working with the other Twilight sites. Team-Twilight and Twifans really helped me. Total group effort on these interviews. *hugs*

I prefer a less variable mechanic for limiting fight length - enrages or stacking debuffs.
There's a very simple reason for this: if you base the fight length solely on mana, then the fight can run indefinitely. Just stack more healers. If healer mana is the limiting factor, then once you reach the point where healer regen is equal to healer expenditure (via incoming damage), the fight IS endless. Essentially, using mana to limit fights gives them the potential to be limitless.
Consider Heigan, in Naxxramas. Many of us remember raids that were decimated by the Safety Dance, only to watch a duo of healer and tank remain endlessly whittling his health down. I remember several times where the fight ran for 15+ minutes, with the dead bodies clamoring for us to "just die" so they could get back up and do something. With mana being the only deadline, once the healer was only healing two people, the damage was easily manageable. Fun, right?
Other factors can be more easily controlled. Stacking debuffs or hard enrage timers set a specific deadline. Doesn't matter how well you can deal with incoming damage; if you can't kill the boss before the deadline, you're done.
I'm 100% for replacing mana with active models. At that point, the healers aren't playing a double game by also defining the limit (or endlessness) of the fight. The whole point is whether you're strong enough to heal the damage.
Whoops, I forgot. People went into the healing game because they liked being fancy egg timers.
My bad.

"Brian, you're drunk." I started, trying so hard not fall for his cheap tactic.
"I'm so not!" he argued. "You know I'm not that drunk." His lips moved about my collarbone, going higher, tracing my neck with the tip of his nose.
"But you're starting to speak nonsense!" I snapped, ducking from underneath his arms.
"Maybe I am... I... I feel weak..."
"You're Synyster Gates!" I snapped. "You're not supposed to act like that!" I was standing, staring at him, as he still faced the wall. "Don't blabber, don't think, and you'll be fine."
Another stake through the heart.
He's lying, isn't he?
"Just shut up!"
He stiffened, and then turned around. "What?"
"What are you saying?" I asked him, crossing my arms onto my chest.
He sighed; a weird emotion fleeting in his eyes. Defeat? "Nothing..." he walked past me, brushing me off lightly as he passed.
I couldn't stop him, and I couldn't follow him. I just stood there watching him walk away. It wasn't the perfect season, but it started raining, halleluiah! I loved rain, but right now, it was depressing me, if possible, some more.
I cried.
I had to.
I felt lost, defeated, confused, trapped, and so much more. I felt regret. 'Cause I absolutely wanted him, more than anything else. But it still wasn't enough.
We were completely different.
From complete different worlds.
I don't know how to feel.
I've never been rejected, and it just felt weird. It felt mean.
Why'd she do that?
I pushed into the suit I was sharing with Zacky and her. Zacky was already in bed, but not asleep yet.
"What's up, man? Where's Fox?"
"Down." I shrugged out of my jacket, throwing it onto a chair.
"What happened?"
"I told her I loved her..." I lay on the other empty bed.
"WHAT?" he sat up straight.
"I'm just... I don't know..." I placed my arms beneath my head on the pillow, picturing her face.
"Well, do you?"
"Do I what?" I snapped outta my reverie.
"Love here!"
"I can't tell..."
"Why'd you tell her you did?"
"I don't know..."
"Could you answer me with a proper sentence, other than 'I don't know' or 'I can't tell'."
"Urrrghhh." I smirked. Pissing him was so much fun. "Tell me; is it the sex that you want or her?"
"Zack, just sleep." I muttered.
"Answer me, first."
"I just wanna be with her..." I ducked under the sheets, hoping sleep would engulf me right away.
I gave up, after Syn pretended to want to sleep. It was getting late anyway, and I was kind of worried about Taylor. She didn't come back, while it's pouring rain like a river down there.
The minute I stood, ready to go down and get her, the door made a clicking sound as it opened. She walked in, her hair melting on her face, eyeliner streaming down her cheeks, looking paler than Jack Skellington.
She kept walking towards the armchair, and she plopped down on it.
"Fox!" I snapped, rushing to her side. "What's wrong with you!?"
It seemed like she was shaking; I held onto her forearm, and it was as cold as ice.
"Shit!" I hissed. "Talk to me, dammit!" she seemed to be in some other universe. And her coldness was creeping the hell out of me.
"I..." she started.
"What's wrong?"
"...can't breathe..."
Ehhh? "Umm... I'll get you some water...?" I had no idea what to do, so I just did that, and shoved it into her throat.
I ran to the bathroom, fixed her a warm bath but when I went back, she was almost drifting.
"Foxy, I fixed you a bath..." I mumbled.
"Aww, sweety, you didn't have to..." she whispered. "...too bad I'm too frozen to move. Could you dump me in there?"
I gulped. She looked too high to realize what she's saying.
"I'll get her there..." Syn slid his legs down the bed, stood up, and scooped her in his arms.
"Uhh... ok... umm, take care of her, Bri. She's..."
"Yeah, yeah."
So, he wasn't asleep after all... cheap!
As soon as I touched her, I winced. She was awfully cold. I embraced her every spot, well, as much as I could, to spread my warmth into her. I noticed her teeth were shattering and she just squeezed her eyes shut. I sat her aside the bathtub, slowly taking her clothings off. Her whole body felt like she was thrown into a freezer.
I unhooked her bra, sliding the straps down her icy arms. I placed her as carefully as I could into the hot waters, and as soon as her body adjusted to the warmth, her eyes shot wide open, and she gasped, shivering uncontrollably.
"Hey, try and relax."
She jumped in fright. "S-Syn...?" she stuttered. "I-I'm s-sorry about-t ear-earlier."
"Don't mention it." I mumbled.
"I... wanna s-sleep some..." she leaned her head back, closing her eyelids.
"Ok, I'll keep an eye on you..."
"Thanks, Brain. You're awesome..." and she soon was out.
I didn't leave her, not a minute. I just watched her, lying there, fast asleep, mumbling... I wasn't sure if I was hallucinating, but... it sounded like she mentioned a Syn.
So, to make this short... well, its gonna be long! Sorry, guys.

Resurrecting melodramatic weepies at the dawn of the '70s, Love Story's "verbal volleyball" (courtesy of doomed lovers Ali MacGraw and Ryan O'Neal) looks thoroughly dated in an age of bromances and Bridesmaids.
Kisses in the rain, snowball fights, the immortal "Love means never having to say you're sorry" – all so exhaustively parodied that Arthur Hiller's film almost plays like a really twisted comedy.
Even Francis Lai's iconic, Oscar-snatching score grates – by the end credits, you'll be shedding tears for all the wrong reasons.

[QUOTE=Jet_Engine1;3767196]OK, I'll bite.......did you watch the game? It was GREAT! Jets offense just blowing up on Buffalo, Cromartie erasing Evans, buffalo not able to move the ball much at all, Jets dominating the line on both sides of the ball. The ONLY negative? Fitz running for 70+ yards...mostly for his life, but still getting yards against the Jets D.
ANd what do I see on one of Fitzpatricks scrambles for a first down? I see #50, SIXTH OVERALL PICK Vernon Gholston LOAFING it, jogging vaguely in the direction of the ball. DO I see him playing hard, running down the QB? DO I see him looking to HIT SOMEONE, ANYONE, and maybe make a tiny impact? NO. I see him leisurely jogging on the field LOAFING.
Jason Taylor? He chased the play down from the other side of the field...a 35 year old HALL OF FAMER with a BRACE on his Left arm....chasing down and getting in on the tackle. Vernon the Ghost? Nahhh, the game was OVER, right? Why get winded chasing down the QB?
The guy is NOT a Football player. Hes just a big 'roid head that plays football.[/QUOTE]
Jason Taylor has 14 years of NFL playing experience too. While Gholston may never live up to being drafted at #6 in the first round, that's also not his fault. The Draftnicks pushed him up the charts and he hit NFL Lotto with Eric Mangini to thank for the winning ticket.
And Gholston is just a big roid head? You know this for a fact? Have you ever met Vernon Gholston? Ever talk to him? Ever see him take GHD's? HGH's? And do you know anyone that actually juices? Watch their behavior, demeanor, mood and attitude swings? Have you ever seen a person in a roid rage?
While everyone is entitled to his or her opinion on the board, if you don't have solid proof to back up such a claim, then............... :flush:
