The movie topped director M. Night Shyamalan's "The Happening," a thriller starring Mark Wahlberg that opened in third place with $30.5 million, box-office tracker Media by Numbers said Sunday.
"Marvel's strategy is franchise, franchise, franchise," Paul Dergarabedian, president of Media by Numbers, said in an interview. "They've already said there will be an 'Iron Man 2.' "
Edward Norton stars in "The Incredible Hulk" as Bruce Banner, a scientist whose genetic experiments to create a super-human soldier go awry. Banner is infected with a strain that transforms him into the powerful Hulk when angered, forcing him into hiding and a life that attempts to maintain calm at all times. Tim Roth co-stars as a soldier who infects himself with a more dangerous strain.
Director Ang Lee's 2003 "Hulk," starring Eric Bana and Nick Nolte, opened in the U.S. with $62.1 million in ticket sales and went on to collect $242 million worldwide. Fans of the "Hulk" comic books and the television series that began in 1978 were disappointed, Dergarabedian said.
"Fans furious with Ang Lee's artsy 2003 flick about Marvel's green behemoth can finally breathe a sigh of relief," Tyler Hanley said last week in the Palo Alto Weekly.
"The Happening" got mostly negative reviews, with only 19 positive write-ups out of 97 tracked on film review compendium RottenTomatoes.com on Friday. News Corp., whose 20th Century Fox is distributing "The Happening," owns RottenTomatoes.com.
In the movie, Wahlberg plays a father who tries to escape from a crisis that poses a threat to humanity. Zooey Deschanel and John Leguizamo co-star.
Gitesh Pandya, editor of BoxOfficeGuru.com, projected about $53 million in weekend ticket sales for "Hulk" and $22 million for "The Happening." That would be the second-lowest of Shyamalan's movies after 2006's "Lady in the Water."
"His box-office track record is all over the map," Dergarabedian said. "It's kind of a roller coaster, but it's a stronger track record than people give him credit."
"Kung Fu Panda," the animated comedy with the voice of Jack Black, dropped to second place from first with sales of $34.3 million. The film was produced by DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. and distributed by Paramount Pictures.
Adam Sandler's "You Don't Mess With the Zohan," from Sony Corp., fell to fourth place from second with sales of $16.4 million.
Paramount's "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" fell to fifth from third with $13.5 million. The fourth installment in the series starring Harrison Ford has earned $275.3 million since its May 23 debut.
Rounding out the top 10 were Time Warner Inc.'s "Sex and the City" in sixth with $10.2 million in ticket sales; "Iron Man" in seventh place with $5.13 million; NBC Universal's Rogue Pictures' "The Strangers" in eighth with $4.1 million; Walt Disney Co.'s "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian" in ninth with $3 million; and News Corp.'s "What Happens in Vegas" in 10th with $1.7 million.
Revenue for the top 12 movies rose 25% to $174.3 million from $140 million a year earlier, Media by Numbers said. Box-office sales this year are down 0.3% to $4.06 billion. Attendance is down 3.1% from a year earlier.

These are too dense for cycling for me.

Good Night, Ralph
Posted By Dave On February 7, 2014 @ 12:31 pm In Mets History,Off The Field | No Comments
Ralph Kiner played a major role in my teen years. He and Tim McCarver were the signature television game calling partnership in the 1980s and, together with Bob Murphy on the radio, were a very big influence on my development as a baseball fan.
Part of the fun of Kiner was waiting for him to say something incorrectly. We used to make a bit of a game out of telling each other the most atrocious Kiner-ism we could remember. But under that was a great story teller. The tangents he and McCarver would go off on during games were wonderful to me and taught me a lot about the game and it's history as did his post game Kiner's Korner segements.
In the last few years, since he suffered a stroke, his appearances on air have been few and far between. Each one a treasure. And though he obviously enjoyed those appearances I always felt sad that they paraded him out there despite his obvious issues. But each appearance was another chance to enter the wonderful mind and experience the great personality that was Ralph Kiner.
Rest in peace.

"No one promised life would be easy or that the game wouldn't change without warning. There you are, all ready to pass Go and collect two hundred dollars, and suddenly Colonel Mustard is trapped in the conservatory, ranting and raving and waving a wrench, and no one knows what exactly a conservatory is or why anyone thought a wrench —of all things — would be a good murder weapon, or what branch of the military Colonel Mustard even served in! Has anyone seen his credentials? Well, you get my point: You've got one life with zero guarantees, so do your best, adapt if possible, and keep on breathing. I recommend striving for happiness, but many opt for duty and responsibility. Mileage varies. Your life, your game, your rules."

This review assessed the analgesic efficacy and adverse effects that single dose oral dextropropoxyphene taken alone or in combination with paracetamol had in treating moderate to severe postoperative pain. The combination of dextropropoxyphene 65 mg with paracetamol 650 mg showed similar efficacy to that of tramadol 100 mg for single dose studies in postoperative pain but with a lower incidence of side effects. This review also highlighted that Ibuprofen 400 mg was yet more effective than both tramadol 100 mg and dextropropoxyphene 65 mg.

It IS 1-1-2 if you're DPSing. 3-3-3-4 if you're healing.
1 is the fireball that places a combo point up.
2 is the flame that uses the combo points to put up a stacking dot
3 is the self heal with self combo points
4 is the aoe heal
5 is the emergency shield.
Actually, it's whatever needs to be done in order to keep your stack running or your group alive. Whether that's 1-2-1-2-1-2 or 1-1-1-1-1-2 or *trails off into more numbers*...
...it doesn't really matter. Whatever makes the big dragon trying to eat your face not alive.
Which I think is the point. WotLK has taught many players to simply do what someone in raid chat says rather than go to the excruciatingly painful work of actually learning the mechanics of a particular fight.
These days almost anything works as long as SOMEBODY is hitting the heal button. I'm a patch 3.3 baby, and Malygos came up as the weekly. First time we wiped on the drakes, second time I noticed that no one else was healing, so I picked up a 1-1-1-3 rotation and kept the 5 of us who hadn't managed to get ourselves killed alive, doing pretty nicely on the healing charts. As a warrior.

Former teammate says defender was destined to take armband.
Phil Neville
Former Everton midfielder Kevin Kilbane believes Phil Neville was destined to take the captain's armband.
Kilbane spent a year as a teammate of Neville, who has announced he will be leaving Goodison Park when his contract expires this summer.
Neville signed on with the Blues in August 2005, bringing to an end a 10-year spell with first club Manchester United.
"He came from a really successful United team at that time and I think we recognised his professionalism, his attitude and we saw that very quickly," said Kilbane.
"David Weir was captain when he first came in and it wasn't long after that that David moved to Rangers, so I think that he [Neville] was probably the successor to that really.
"Because of his experience at Man United and what he'd achieved in his career, I think it brought that winning mentality to the Club as well, and I think he's had really good success on the pitch at Everton.
"He's been a really good servant and a true captain for them."
Neville, who turned 36 in January, has expressed his intention to extend his playing career beyond this season.
And Kilbane added: "I think wherever he goes to he's going to find it difficult because of the lengths he spent at the two clubs he's been at.
"But he's going to bring professionalism, he's going to pass on knowledge to younger players, maybe to older players as well that might do things differently to him.
"That's what he can bring and I think that if he still feels as though he's got legs in him, I don't see any reason why not. He's certainly still got the ability and he's got the capabilities to do it, but it's just on what Phil wants to do."

Fairest Daughter of the Father: On the Solemnity of the Assumption | Rev. Charles M. Mangan
The Solemnity of the Assumption, celebrated annually on August 15, presents a golden opportunity to reconsider the person of the Ever-Virgin Mary and her singular mission in the Church. We often contemplate the relationship between Mary and her Son; this reflection will focus on the relationship which Our Lady enjoys with the First Person of the Most Blessed Trinity.
Mary has been hailed as the "first-born" daughter of the Father. This reality is evident if one remembers that God--and in a specific way the Father--has created Mary, just as He has created us. She is "one of us" because she is fully human. We are children of the Almighty in a similar vein in which she is His daughter. As we rely on God for our very existence, so, too, does our Immaculate Mother.
What do the Father and His sinless daughter share? Venerable Pius IX (1846-1878), in his Apostolic Constitution Ineffabilis Deus (December 8, 1854) in which he once-and-for-all defined the truth of Our Lady's Immaculate Conception, wrote: "To her did the Father will to give His only-begotten Son--the Son Whom, equal to the Father and begotten by Him, the Father loves from His Heart--and to give this Son in such a way that He would be the one and the same common Son of God the Father and of the Blessed Virgin Mary."
The Father gave many overwhelming spiritual riches to Mary to strengthen her in her inspiring vocation as the Mother of His Son. Yet, He gave no greater gift than that of the Lord Jesus. Mary, in turn, imitated the Father in raising Jesus from before infancy to manhood. Jesus knew well the best of all gifts which His Mother faithfully imparted: the boundless love of His Beloved Father. Now, as the Son of Mary, Christ came to experience the love of His Mother which was patterned after that of His Father.
One may rightly assert that Jesus Christ is the link between the Father and Mary. We often claim that children receive much of their identity from their parents. Eye color, physical build and even disposition are often traced from the child back to its parents. Truly, the offspring rely on their father and mother for multiple and varied things. (And, of course, the Messiah willed to come forth from Mary and be dependent on her and Saint Joseph.) However, the Holy Family of Nazareth is a different case. Mary and her loving husband discovered their purpose in the Divine Child. In Jesus, they found their identity--unto everlasting life!

It's quite possible that the Mercer name may not spark any type of recognition with the younger crowd. After all, this company was an American automobile manufacturer that produced cars before World War II and are probably not mentioned in any of the history books handed out in most classrooms. For the short version of the story, Mercer was responsible for the Mercer 35 Raceabout which was produced back in 1910 and considered the most admired sports cars of the decade. This vehicle was capable of hitting a top speed of 90 mph, which at the time was quite a feat, and was admired so much that Carrozzeria Sibona-Basano ended up building a modern interpretation of it in 1965.
The Mercer Cobra Roadster was a one-off vehicle commissioned by the Copper Development Association from Virgil Exner's designs in Esquire. Its design was drawn up by Virgil Exner and Virgil Exner, Jr. and was built using a Cobra chassis, number CSX2451.
The special Mercer-Cobra Roadster will be put to auction on August 20, 2011 in Monterey with an expected draw of $800,000-$1,200,000.

LA Architects Learn How to Be International Stars
By Derek Washam, Manager, Federal & International Programs
Dozens of AIA members braved the infamous Los Angeles traffic to take part in the Working Abroad: Pros, Cons, and Ways Forward international practice training session with representatives from the U.S. Department of Commerce, the Small Business Administration, and the Export-Import Bank, as well as fellow architects with extensive experience in practicing overseas on September 18th.
The morning workshop kicked off with a presentation by Terri Batch, a U.S. Commercial Service International Trade Specialist from the West Los Angeles Export Assistance Center. Batch highlighted some of the many services that the Commercial Service offers, such as market intelligence, trade counseling, and business matchmaking, as well as giving insight into some of the challenges that architects face abroad. Pellson Lau of the Small Business Administration and Greg Moore of the Export-Import Bank rounded out the panel with information on the loan programs and insurance programs that help you realize and protect your goal. During the networking break after the presentations, the audience was able to speak directly with these speakers who all work in the greater Los Angeles area. Many participants have already continued to grow these relationships to further explore international opportunities.
Local Architects Frank Glynn, SAGA Architecture, and David Hunt, gkkworks, advised the audience based on their experiences working abroad. Both have extensive understanding of international practice in India, a market that offers a wealth of opportunities because of its economic and demographic growth. Though they both have faced obstacles in their practice, they have managed to overcome them with patience and hard work. They both suggest that architects be mindful of local business and cultural practices, needs, and to be prepared for an adventure.

i was using my wii fit to weigh but recently we bought a bathroom scale... well my wii was off...it waid i was lighter than what the bathroom scale... but i was steadily losing weight according to my wii fit.. so my question is did i really lose that weight or did it lie about that too?

Did you use your Wii fit on carpet? Cuz that'll screw you up every time... But all scales tend to weigh differently, they said that the only consitant ones are in the doctors offices

no you really lost it, all scales are different, I use the wii because it's easily accessible as well, yet the one at the gym is usually about 4lbs less, the peditricians is 5lbs higher, my dr's is almost 10 lbs, and the gyno is the same. So I stick with one.

I was doing the same thing and then I bought a scale:) I would say that you probably have lost some of the weight but a scale will be more accuarte. On the wii fit I had a significantly different weight everyday. On my scale it stays consistently the same. The wii said I weighed 165!! My scale said I weighed 175. I brought my weight up on here (as hard as that was) and I have been working at it ever since! I don't even weigh anymore on the wii fit!

I hit the nearest hospital and walked around until I found a medical scale. I weighed myself there and found that my bathroom scale said I was two pounds heavier than I actually was. Wahooo. In my opinion a bathroom scale is a gauge nothing more.
Anytime I see the doctor or am in a hospital if I see one of there scales I use it. My digital bathroom scale cannot be adjusted so as I said they are cheap and are a gauge.

yea it is on carpet... i didnt know that it messed with it.. now i know.. it makes me feel better to know that i have lost the weight though!!! there is a 7 lb difference. when i started losing weight my wii fit said 197 and i had made it down to 186....and when i started using the bathroom scale i was 196 so i add those lbs 10 to the 196 from the bathroom scale to get my actual start weight and that puts me at 207... and then i weighed today at 194 on the bathroom scale so i have lost 13 lbs? im not sure if all that makes since...

I had the same problem when I was using my wii fit board on carpet.. Either way, you lost weight. Its just you were always a higher weight than you thought you were.

Even medical scales can be off. I was weighed twice on two different scales yesterday - one doctor was on the third floor, the other was on the second. It was less than an hour between the two weigh-ins. There was a 1.1 pound difference between the two scales.
I use the Wii Fit scale and it's on carpet. It was within two pounds from my weight(s?) at the doctor's office, so I'm not worried about it. I know I'm losing weight - I've dropped two pant sizes. It's pretty consistant with the weight loss. When I ate a bunch of junk for the holidays, it showed a gain. If it was bouncing all over the place, I'd be concerned.

One of the best ways to describe the Kliklok-Woodman line of packaging machinery is complete. (As a matter of fact, we believe the range of equipment we offer surpasses all other packaging machinery companies.) Other defining words that come to mind are robust, durable, fast, automated, flexible, versatile, advanced.
Kliklok pioneered automated topload cartoning. Woodman pioneered automated weighing and bagmaking for snack foods. Now together, as one seamless company, we build on those starting points to offer a full spectrum of operator and production friendly products: bagmakers; filling systems; topload formers and closers; endload cartoning and product handling; wraparound cartoning; as well as special packaging machinery applications like display card loaders, trolley loaders, shrinkwrappers, and lithoplate wrappers.

American figure skater Jeremy Abbott has brought a bed to the 2014 Sochi Olympics and he won't be apologizing. The Olympic hopeful was in 9th place in 2010 at Vancouver and his concern for sleeping on such a small bad offered him no rest before the competition. Well, Abbott won't be worried about rolling off the bed in Sochi as instead of the twin beds the athletes are sleeping on, the star brought his own queen size blow up bed. According to NBC Sports, the bed was 25-pounds and filled an entire suitcase that the athlete put on the plane.
"I brought a queen-sized air mattress," said Jeremy Abbott. The different approach to the Olympics might be key. A well-rested athlete gives energy and focus for a program and that's needed to win. "I did not do well on the twin bed in Vancouver."
One of Jeremy's struggles as an athlete is sleeping properly. The rest is needed, yet sometimes elusive. Talking about his concern in the past, the athlete has tried different ideas, but so far he's still struggled with the issue. Having a blow up mattress ready for him to rest, even if he tosses and turns, sounds like a good solution.
Jeremy Abbott wants to win the Olympics, but he has suggested his past performance wasn't his best because he couldn't sleep. Knowing he has a queen size mattress in Sochi to give him adequate rest, the Olympic athlete no doubt is excited about his journey and his chance to win the gold.

Great start to a Sunday morning.
Very good day shooting :) happy to be at home though! Images following soon.
- The one with Johnny Depp
- And Helena Bonham Carter
- With the soundtrack by Danny Elfman
3.5h retouching for two photos and in the end they don't match. All again, love it!
Right, it's my cousins wedding today. It's cloudy and rainy and I reckon it'll be a quite small ceremony.
Funny thing is, that I involuntarily got roped into covering the whole thing, so I'm currently looking at terrible cheesy wedding photography to get at least some sort of idea.
Defo NOT looking forward to it,haha.
Wish me luck!!

How To Run a Meeting
The Purpose and Atmosphere of IDEA Club Meetings
IDEA Club meetings are supposed to be a friendly place where people of different viewpoints can have good-spirited discussion over issues related to creation and evolution. It is good to keep the IDEA mission statement in mind that we aim to, "facilitate discussion, debate, and dialogue over these issues in a warm, friendly, and open atmosphere where individuals feel free to speak their personal views." As the discussion leader, it is your job to help create this atmosphere and keep it going, while allowing people to delve into personal issues about their own beliefs and origins.
First off, people need to be made to feel comfortable at an IDEA meeting. A great way to do this is to open up with a short social period where free sodas or snacks might be available and people can talk. Opening up the meeting can start with announcements, a review of the past week, or some short ice-breaker activity. The most important part of the meeting--the reason everybody comes, however, is for the discussion.
Secondly, make sure that the meeting atmosphere is inviting to anyone of any viewpoint. IDEA Club meetings are meant to be diverse places with people of many viewpoints attending. Most of our clubs have little trouble in getting both creationists and evolutionists to be drawn to the club. But this is crucial: the point of an IDEA Club is anything but to be a place where a bunch of intelligent design proponents simply sit around agreeing with one another and bashing evolution. Rather, it is a place of communication and dialogue between people of many viewpoints, where those on all sides of the issue can come and challenge, and be challenged. IDEA Clubs must be committed to open intellectual dialogue and exchange if they are to succeed in promoting intelligent design with integrity in an academic environment.
How to Promote Intelligent Design through Open Discussion:
IDEA Clubs typically have weekly, or monthly meetings where various topics related to intelligent design and creation and evolution are discussed. These topics can have a very broad range and might touch on fossils, the nature of God, the design of biochemistry, astrophysics, human sexuality, discussing the theological "problem of evil", and anything in between! The trick behind running a good meeting is finding a topic of interest and using it to foster good-spirited discussion.
Even though IDEA leaders might believe in intelligent design and Christianity, the aguments behind design must be communicated in a non-threatening way to a diverse club membership. Remember, IDEA's mission statement says that we both, "promote ... the idea that life was designed" and "facilitate discussion, debate, and dialogue over these issues ... where individuals feel free to speak their personal views". This promotion of design is accomplished by communicating the aruments in a non-threatening way and then fostering good-spirited discussion.
We at IDEA believe there is no need to shove our views upon anyone, but rather to let the arguments speak for themselves. In an intellectual manner, we want people to become convinced by their own convictions and the strength of the argument, not because the arguer shouts. Open discussion is the best way to present the case for our views and allow people to feel free to think for themselves. As the old adage says, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him (or her) drink". After being led to that water through friendship and argument, what people believe...is up to them.
Most IDEA Club meetings consist of discussing a topic and it is through this discussion that IDEA Clubs thrive. The most important component of the meeting is the discussion period, as this allows people to express their views and hear the views of others. It is through this dialogue that people analyze their own positions and are able to be engaged in debate. We find that merely presenting our position in an open, friendly, and honest way, and allowing for dialogue and discussion is often the best way to advocate intelligent design. Let the arguments and evidence speak for themselves, and hope that people will find the reason and kindness we demonstrate compelling.
How to Start and Lead a Discussion:
At a discussion meeting, it is helpful if a discussion has a leader who can help initiate the discussion and keep it on track. The easiest way to start a discussion is simply to throw out a question on the topic of the day. People have thoughts, feelings, and views bottled up inside of them--they just need a chance let them get out. The best way to invite these thoughts out is to ask a provocative question or make a provocative statement and ask people what they think about it! Statements like, "I think the fossil record conflicts with evolutionary theory because ...", or "There is no way the human eye could have evolved because the complexity of the ..." are sure to draw views out from all sides of the table.
Typically, if people are to discuss a topic, it is best to educate them about it first! For example, if you want to make the claim that evolution of the eye is impossible, not everyone--including yourself--is going to be an expert on the physics, biology, and physiology of the eye. It might be a good idea to read ahead on works such as Michael Behe's discussion of irreducible complexity and the molecular biology of the eye in Darwin's Black Box. IDEA has prepared a large reference list and has various scientific materials and resources available to lend out to clubs.
Though you might be able to make a strong case against the evolution of the eye, the best way to strengthen your case is to understand what the opposing viewpoint is saying. It might be a good idea to read up on Richard Dawkin's accounts of eye evolution in The Blind Watchmaker. By reading up a bit, one can either photocopy materials to be passed out and read during the meeting, or one can prepare a presentation.
What all IDEA Club meetings have in common is discussion. The different types of meetings generally lie in how to arrive at that discussion. Here are a few different ways to lead into a discussion:
Regardless, it is always helpful if one member moderates the discussion. However, once the discussion is going, it is often hard to stop it! At this point the meetings tend to run themselves--people discuss their views and they don't want to stop! As the discussion leader, it is always helpful to have various questions written down to stimulate further comments just in case the discussion slows. More often than not, however, the hardest thing about discussions is that they tend to get sidetracked away from the topic of the day. This is OK, but if it goes on for too long it is often helpful to remind people of the discussion topic and say something to bring it back.
Discussion Topic Ideas and Suggestions.
IDEA meeting topics typically should in some way aim to fulfill IDEA's mission statement, even if the topic is only peripherally related. To get you thinking, various topics presented at past IDEA Clubs include:
Non-Discussion or "Presentation" Meetings:
Sometimes it is good to have meetings where there is no formal group discussion, but rather the club listens to or watches a presentation made by a speaker. "Presentation meetings" happen when a presentation is made at a meeting, either by a person who speaks or by a video that the club can watch.
As far as videos go, the IDEA Center provides each new club with a its own copies of various intelligent design videos. Furthermore, the IDEA Center keeps a video lending library with nearly 2 dozen intelligent design videos which IDEA Clubs are free to borrow and use for at their club.
If you seek to have a speaker, the question is what sort of speaker to book? First, try to make use of both professors at your school and / or local professionals interested in creation / evolution and ID. You dont have to necessarily book a well-known or famous speaker like Phillip Johnson, Michael Behe, Jonathan Wells, or William Dembski to have a successful discussion meeting. Though you may desire to occasionally bring such a well known intelligent design proponents for special events, for the purpose of regular club meetings, it is much more time and cost effective to make use of local speakers. Well known speakers can be brought to campuses upon occasion however--to learn more about bringing well-known speakesr to give large campus lectures, see our How to Plan an Event page. There are usually a few ID-friendly speakers on the faculty at every school, or such professionals in the local community. The trick is to find them!
Don't forget that there is no reason the speaker has to be pro-intelligent design. In seeking to promote open discussion, it is great to occasionally invite evolutionist professors to give presentations. Professors or teachers, regardless of their viewpoint, are usually honored to be invited to speak before a student club, and would gladly do so. Be sure to treat them with respect, but dont be afraid to politely ask hard questions on the topic they will be speaking about.
If you desire to have a presentation meeting but cannot find a speaker who is a professional, student members of the club can also give presentations. This requires preparation on their part, but student presentations often attract a wide and diverse audience, and keep student interest. This seems to really make for a successful and attractive club. When you have a speaker, be sure to do heavy publicity around campus for these speaking events.
How to handle a heated meeting:
Because there is disagreement over these issues, it is always possible that meetings might get heated. There are various things which can be done to help diffuse tension at IDEA Club meetings.
As stated in our IDEA Philosophy, the IDEA Center encourages the acknowledgement of personal bias because it opens us up to one another and diffuses emotional conflict. Simply going around the table and have everyone acknowledge their "bias", or their religious / philosophical perspective often makes these issues a bit more lighthearted and helps people to not take them too harshly. Of course upholding the seriousness of these issues is of the utmost importance, but by acknowledging the glasses through which we see the world, we are often able to better reflect upon our beliefs without emotions getting in the way.
At the beginning of a club meeting, it might also be helpful to remind club members of the ground rules for the discussion. A suggestion for a set of meeting rules might be:
Should the meeting get heated, the best thing to do is then to remind the group of the ground rules for discussion, which hopefully have already been laid out. Even if only one person is responsible for the problem, try not to single out that person as the problem but rather remind the group as a whole of the rules and that they must work together to keep the discussion friendly.
Breaking a rule once or even twice will happen, but if a member repeatedly is disrespectful and does not seem to be heeding multiple warnings, it might be necessary to single that person out and either ask them to refrain from speaking further if they cannot treat others kindly. In a final step of action, it might be ncessary to ask that person to leave the meeting. If a member is a problem, it might be a good idea to speak to them privately and ask them to consider how they treat people after the meeting.
Although it is hard to be the "bad guy" or the "police chief", remember that what you are doing you are doing for the entire group. Of course it is always up the discretion of the discussion leader how the rules should be enforced. However, when you're discussing personal topics like origins, religion, and the existence of God, emotions from those of many viewpoints can get involved. This is OK, but it is up to the discussion leader to make sure that no one is hurt and that people treat one another with respect at a meeting.

Hope all are well. A few thoughts about Georgia Tech's 61-50 loss to Maryland.
1. The Jackets shot 33.9 percent from the field, a season low. However, the bigs actually shot pretty well. Kammeon Holsey, Daniel Miller, Nate Hicks and Julian Royal shot a combined 11-for-21, while Tech's guards shot 8-for-35. Against N.C. State, Mfon Udofia, Glen Rice Jr., Jason Morris and Pierre Jordan were 19-for-33, including 9-for-15 from 3-point range. It wouldn't surprise me if Tech's guards don't shoot as badly as they did Sunday or as well as they did last Wednesday for the rest of the season.
Miller's post game is developing; he usually looks pretty fluid executing his moves. If any one of them becomes consistently effective, he and Rice could form a pretty strong scoring tandem.
2. I think Tech will have many more games like this the rest of the way, although maybe not as underwhelming offensively. If they continue to play defense like they have – they're second in the ACC

There are new developments in the scandal that led to the resignation of CIA director David Petraeus. Now, another general is involved. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta announced General John Allen, our top military commander in Afghanistan, is under investigation. The Pentagon discovered 20,000- 30,000 e-mails that a senior defense official called "potentially inappropriate" between Allen and Jill Kelley. Kelley's the woman who complained she felt harassed by anonymous emails later traced to Paula Broadwell. That FBI investigation uncovered an affair between Broadwell and CIA director David Petraeus in which Petraeus later resigned. The Pentagon won't say what the relationship was between Allen and Kelley, but he's still on the job for now. Senior military sources say these latest allegations took them by surprise.

To: Secretary Clinton From: 7774; Thomson Re: Formal arbitration is necessary to alleviate Google/China dispute Date: 2/2/10 Formal intervention is necessary for both sides to reach an agreement. Potential financial and political implications are making the decision difficult for both parties. If Google decides to stay in China, it will be comprising its public image. At the same time, if it leaves the country, it will lose revenue. China wants Google to remain, but also wants the company to abide by their laws and censor their material. Google and China?s differing aspirations are the reason behind the strife A compromise has not been made because both sides desire totally different outcomes. The model in the appendix shows why this is apparent. Google wants to stay in China and not be forced to censor their material. The only way for this to happen is if China agrees to this as well. This will not happen because it is China?s worst outcome. Google may be presented with the option of remaining in China but being forced to censor their material. The company would never select this option though because, as the model shows, they could instead pullout and have a better outcome. Google instead could decide to pullout on its own. This would be the company?s second best option if it feels that monetary gains are not as important as public image. If China decides to make Google censor their material and Google pulls out, the company would have made a wise decision. Google and China?s decisions are based on direct advantages According to the appendix, the only options for Google are to pull out or stay in China. China?s only two options are to stop censorship or to continue it. It is advantageous for Google to remain in the country if China offers to stop censoring. This would allow Google to continue making money in China and would not damage the company?s image. China?s most attractive outcome also involves Google remaining in the country. China wants Google to continue staying in the country, but only if it submits to their laws on censorship. The worst situation for Google would be if they immediately pulled out of China and China lifted the censorship ban. This would cost Google millions and also reflect negatively on the company. The model in the appendix shows a representation of this and of all the possible outcomes. Formal arbitration must first occur to mollify both parties The only way either side will give in to the other?s requests is with some form of outside intervention. Neither party is currently willing to listen to the other. The main problem is that both sides want Google to stay in the country. The issue with that is both parties want different levels of censorship to go along with Google?s presence. This is why discussion proves difficult for the two sides and it also shows why an outside arbiter is necessary. An outside arbiter must bring both parties together to try to reach an agreement. Even small, innocuous negotiations between both sides would initially be helpful. Although a compromise is the intended and ultimate goal, these first encounters would be beneficial to everyone involved. The problem will most likely grow and eventually cause more serious disputes in the future, if outside involvement does not occur soon. Google?s real motives and Chinese hostility limits model A major limitation of the model is that it implies a lot of things about both parties. The model follows the assumption that Google wants to maintain the best public image it can. This may not be the case. Google may actually prefer revenue over a positive reputation. The $300 million profit may be more important to the company than preserving good public relations. Google may also want to completely avoid the dispute and evade poor publicity all together. This would greatly change the model and make China?s decision useless. On the other hand, the Chinese government may not be willing to cooperate. The Chinese government became enraged following Google?s accusations of the internet attacks. If hostility is still present among the Chinese government, they may refuse to collaborate at all. This would lead to a Google withdrawal from China because, according to the model, it would be in the company?s best interests. If any of the aforementioned assumptions prove to be false, the model would need considerable alterations.

Severe Weather Preparedness Week begins in MississippiBy Associated Press | Published 04 Feb 2013 12:24pm |
(AP Photo/Clarion-Ledger,Brian Albert Broom) via Flickr
OXFORD- Mississippi's in the middle of a deadly tornado zone, and Gov. Phil Bryant has declared this week Severe Weather Preparedness Week statewide. The zone stretches roughly from Little Rock, Ark., to Birmingham, Ala.
Gov. Phil Bryant has declared Feb. 4-8 Severe Weather Preparedness Week statewide.
"Some simple actions and a little planning can save your life," he said.
National Weather Service meteorologist Steve Wilkinson told The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal (http://bit.ly/XBf440 ), "Mississippi is at or near the top of nearly all tornado statistics including total tornadoes, strong to violent tornadoes and long track tornadoes.
"Tornado statistics from the last 60 years also show that the frequency of tornadoes increases rapidly from the middle of February all the way through April," he continued. "We are quickly approaching the peak season, so we encourage residents to remain aware of weather forecasts so they can be prepared and stay safe."
According to the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency, every Mississippi resident should have one or more methods to receive severe weather warnings, such as a weather radio, a phone-based warning system or a mobile device app.
"Having a disaster plan in place in every home will save lives," said MEMA Director Robert Latham.
The National Weather Service will hold a statewide tornado drill using the Emergency Alert System at 9:15 a.m. Wednesday. Schools, government agencies and businesses throughout the state are encouraged to participate.
MEMA recommends a home emergency kit including flashlights, AM/FM radio, NOAA weather radio, batteries, drinking water and nonperishable food for at least three days, first aid kit, prescription medications, bedding, clothing, utensils, rainwear, sunscreen, sunglasses, mosquito repellant, sanitary supplies, toiletries, bleach, copies of important documents, cash, generator and bicycle helmet.
MPB News Update: MPB News will have the latest updates on the MEMA severe weather preparedness week news conference with agency director Robert Latham on our after afternoon newscasts.

The publication National Enquirer got a new habit: to run photographs of dead celebrities lying in the coffin. After having recently published cover pictures of Whitney Houston in open casket, now the online environment is flooded by images with Elvis Presley following his death (see photos below).
The supermarket weekly magazine posted snapshots with the corpse of the King of Rock 'n' Roll to remind people that Elvis is really dead.
Elvis Presley was found lifeless on August 16, 1977, by Ginger Alden, his fiancée, in the bathroom of his Graceland home from Memphis, Tennessee. The resuscitation attempts failed and the announcement on musician's death was made at Baptist Memorial Hospital, at 15.30.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

The National Baseball Hall of Fame Remembers Bob Feller
Hall of Fame Pitcher Passed Away Wednesday night
December 16, 2010
"Cooperstown is the greatest place on earth."
- Bob Feller
Bob Feller's Hall of Fame plaque (elected, 1962)
Robert William Andrew Feller
Cleveland A.L. 1936 to 1941
1945 to 1956
Pitched 3 no-hit games in the A.L., 12 one hit
games. Set modern strikeout record with 18 in a
game, 348 for season. Led A.L. in victories 6
(one tie)seasons. Lifetime record: Won 266,
lost 162, P.C. .621. E.R. average 3.25,
struckout 2,581.
Bob Feller Bio
Born: Nov. 3, 1918 at Van Meter, Iowa
Height: 6-0 Weight: 185
Batted right and threw right
When Bob Feller said of his pitching, "I just reared back and let them go," he accurately described his blazing fastball. "Rapid Robert" set the standard for generations of future fireballers. During his 18-year career, spent entirely with the Cleveland Indians, Feller amassed 266 victories, leading the league in wins six times and strikeouts seven. After enlisting in the Navy in 1941, Feller missed nearly four full seasons to serve the country. As a Navy gun captain, he earned five campaign ribbons studded with eight battle stars. Feller authored three no-hitters and 12 one-hitters, winning 20 or more games six times.
Remembering Bob Feller
"We are all saddened to hear of the passing of Bob Feller. He represented the National Baseball Hall of Fame longer than any individual in history, as 2011 would have been his 50th year as a Hall of Fame member. No one loved coming back to Cooperstown more than Bob, which he and Anne did often. Bob was a wonderful ambassador for the Hall of Fame, always willing to help the Museum. Watching him pitch just shy of his 91st birthday at the Hall of Fame Classic in Cooperstown will be a memory that we will always treasure. He will always be missed." – Jane Forbes Clark, Hall of Fame Chairman of the Board
"The Baseball Hall of Fame has lost an American original – there will never be anyone quite like Bob Feller ever again. He was truly larger than life – baseball's John Wayne – coming out of the Iowa cornfields to the major leagues at age 17 and then dominating for two decades. Bob loved being a member of Baseball's Hall of Fame, but he was most proud of his service as a highly decorated soldier in the Navy in the Pacific during World War II. He reached the pinnacle of individual achievement in 1962, earning enshrinement in Cooperstown, spending more than half his life as a Hall of Fame member. He probably flew more miles, signed more autographs, met more people and visited more places than anyone, a testament to his ceaseless zest for life, baseball and country. Cooperstown will never be the same without Rapid Robert. – Jeff Idelson, Hall of Fame President
"Bob was just a regular, solid person. He was the same guy, all the time. He gave his opinions and he said what he thought. He didn't hedge around anything. He was one of the top pitchers I saw in my time. He was timed at 100 miles per hour and he had a real good curve ball. You had to always be alert with him. He was a real competitor." – Bobby Doerr, HOF Class of 1986 and the oldest living Hall of Fame player
"I really enjoyed Bob's company, and hearing his stories about history – from baseball to war and everything else, from out of the cornfields to the major leagues. He did so much for baseball and had so many great stories, particularly about barnstorming and his memories of players like Cool Papa Bell and Satchel Paige. I was very fond of Bob. I traveled to his Museum in Van Meter to support his Museum. I consider Bob a great American." – Gaylord Perry, HOF Class of 1991
"The passing of Bob Feller is a great loss for the game of baseball. Clearly Bob was one of the greatest pitchers in history and anyone who knew him understood that he was one of the game's great personalities as well. That said, baseball didn't define Bob. His service to our country is something that he was very proud of and something we are all grateful for. Bob lived an incredible life, and he will be missed." – Cal Ripken, HOF Class of 2007
"I am deeply sorry to hear of the passing of Bob Feller. He was baseball's top power pitcher of the 1940's and 1950's and was a source of inspiration for all Americans for his service during World War II. He was a true Hall of Famer." – Nolan Ryan, HOF Class of 1999
"Bob was truly a great American and a great ambassador for the game of baseball." – Dennis Eckersley, HOF Class of 2004
"First he was a hero of mine. He was a true American patriot. His service to the US Navy will always be remembered. He was a true friend and gentleman. He will be missed not only in baseball, but by all that knew him." - Phil Niekro, HOF Class of 1997
"I had the pleasure of knowing Bob personally through the years, especially when I became a member of the fraternity of Baseball's Hall of Fame. Bob invited me to his museum in Iowa, which I had the pleasure of seeing first hand. To actually see his accomplishments makes you appreciate what a great legend he was. He not only represented his country in the war and was honored as a soldier, but he was a great ambassador for the game of baseball. He always represented the Cleveland Indians organization and held it in the highest regard. He was a great man, and he will be truly missed. He will always be remembered as one of the immortals." - Gary Carter, HOF Class of 2003
"The beautiful blustery Bob. He would talk more of his serving his country than baseball. Think about it, he gave up baseball in his prime and did it proudly. He made the Hall of Fame easily and his legend would have been even greater. Thank you, Bob, for the time you gave both on and off the field! You will be missed. May we all live to your ripe old age and standards." - Johnny Bench, HOF Class of 1989
"I'm saddened to hear about the passing of Bob Feller. I had great admiration for him. He was a wonderful guy, and a great American who served his country with honor. I always admired his work ethic. I got to know Bob really well over the years. I'm going to sorely miss him." - Harmon Killebrew, HOF Class of 1984
"It is a sad day. It meant a lot for me to get to know Bob over the years and since becoming a Hall of Famer. I think of him first and foremost as a great American, and of all the sacrifices he made for our country. No question, we know his baseball legacy speaks for itself, but it goes way beyond that. We'll miss him." - Paul Molitor, HOF Class of 2004
"I had a chance to face Bob in the Classic two years ago at Doubleday Field. He said to me, 'no bunting, no line drives up the middle,' and I told him, 'no 102 mile-per-hour fastballs.'" - Paul Molitor, HOF Class of 2004
"A baseball life is short. You're out of the game much longer than you are in it, and you have to prepare yourself for that time."
"(My father) made a home plate in the yard, and I'd throw to him over it. He even built me a pitching rubber. When I was 12, we built a ball field on our farm. We fenced off the pasture, put up the chicken wire and the benches and even a little grandstand behind first base. We formed our own team and played other teams from the around the community on weekends."
"I think it takes more ability to be a complete ballplayer than it does to play any major sports that I know of. Good reflexes, good eye, good coordination. You'd better have them."

Coming this afternoon: The Hall of Fame will release comments from Hall of Famers regarding Bob Feller's passing.

*a naughty little poem*
she whispered,"will it hurt me???"
"of course not",answered he
"it's a very simple process.
you can rely on me."
she said,"I'm very frightened,
i've not had this before.
my friend has had it five times
and said it can be sore."
it was growing rather painful
tears formed in her eyes
It was hurting quite a bit now
It must have been a size
"calm yourself",he whispered
his face filled with a grin
"try and open wider
so I can get it in."
"it's coming now",he whispered
"i know" she cried in bliss
feeling it deep within her now
she said,"i am glad I'm having this."
and with a final effort
she gave a frightened shout
he gripped it in anguish
and quickly pulled it out
she lay back quite contended
sighed and gave a smile
she said,"i'm glad I came now.
you made it worth my while."
now if you read this carefully
the dentist you will find
is not what you imagined
it's just your very dirty mind!!!
