HANCEVILLE — Strutting onto the floor from the team bench after a half-court basket by Jasmin Lucas ended the first quarter, Neal White raised his arms and high-fived every player who walked by.
Returning to the bench at Tom Drake Coliseum on Tuesday, Athens' volunteer assistant coach removed his charcoal-colored jacket, revealing a purple shirt and matching tie.
Every time an Athens player took a shot, White raised his hands. Every time a jumper went in, he cheered loudest. And every time players were out of position defensively, he yelled at them.
From the opening tip, he coached, encouraged, even brought water to players when they needed it.
Known around Athens as the "People's Coach," White, 26, suffers from cerebral palsy, which is causing his legs to bow. He has to wear shoes two sizes too large and at times struggles through pain to walk.
But if the Eagles are playing a big game, White said, "I'm going to be there no matter how much it hurts."
He's been involved with the girls' basketball program since he was a middle school student and has three state championship rings.
White, a 2007 Athens graduate, attended his 11th regional tournament with the Eagles on Tuesday. And even when it became apparent they wouldn't win, he kept cheering and encouraging the players.
"You play to the end," he said after the game.
Athens senior guard Destiny Bailey said having White on the bench is comforting.
"It's always good to look on the bench and see him, because he's always positive," she said.
White's association with the team started in the mid-1990s when Randy White (no relation) coached the girls. The coach taught physical education at Athens Middle, where Neal White was a student in the special-needs program.
His teacher, Bill Swindle, suggested that Randy White let him help the team.
The coach did, and the girls started winning.
With Neal White on the bench, Athens won a state championship in 1999. Two seasons later, the team started a winning streak that reached 69 games and included two more state titles.
Neal White was there for every game — doing whatever was "needed to help the team win," the coach recalled.
"I was superstitious, so my wife or I would pick him up," Randy White said. "He was my good luck charm, and I wanted him to be there. There were some of my players I would have left home, but Neal was going to be there."
Neal White laughed at the comments.
"He needed me to coach," he chuckled.
In 2007, Neal White got his only technical foul when Athens Middle was playing Brookhaven in Decatur.
Dewayne Shoulders coached the middle school team.
"I called the official over because I wanted to know the number of the player he gave the technical foul," Shoulders said. "He said it was my assistant coach.
"When I turned and looked for Neal, he was on the other side of the court."
Neal White laughed as Shoulders recalled the story outside the Athens locker room.
"We won the game with Brookhaven by one point, but the technical foul didn't help," the coach said.
Neal White moved to Decatur in October to live with a cousin, but he said his heart belongs to the girls' basketball program at Athens.
Shoulders transports him from Decatur to most games.
"Something about the bench doesn't seem right if Neal is not there," he said.

If you want to attach your camera to the outside of an existing bag, the Sun-Sniper Strap-Surfer is a fine option.
Its Athlon 64 FX-60 CPU isn't overclocked, and its pair of graphics cards can be trumped, but the ABS Ultimate M6 Sniper is still plenty fast for gamers and boasts excellent build quality, a good mix of high-performance component, and stable operation.

Don't expect to see any other version of Google's three new platforms. Project Ara is targeting this fall for a release and a sniper uses Android based goggles.
We're not kidding; Fuji Xerox actually made a 3D-printed megaphone with a scope and a laser rangefinder, so you can whisper (or yell) at people a good distance away. It's a bit odd, we admit, but it's also pretty fun to think about the potential for pranks.
Ashley and Rich discuss using virtual reality as an illusion of time travel, check out Royal Carribbean's new "smartship," and ask why Fuji Xerox's new megaphone needs a sniper scope.

I drive a 1998 Ford ZX2 as my daily driver. We bought the car in November 1997 right off of the show room floor. Today on my way home from work, I took a picture of the odometer shortly after the odometer rolled over 370,000 miles. The entire car including the engine and transmission are still the original factory parts and have not been rebuilt or repaired. It even has the original Ford wheel bearings that were put on at the factory. The only things that I have replaced were normal wear items like belts, ball joints, spark plugs, and that sort of thing.
My ZX2 will start and run every time, even if it is 10 degrees below zero. I would not hesitate to get in my car and drive anywhere regardless of the distance. I even pull trailers with it on a regular basis. I live just east of the Kansas City area and last fall I pulled my box trailer to Iowa and back on a deer hunt and I routinely pull a 12 foot john boat around to local lakes to go fishing.
When you have had a vehicle this long, you almost forget that it is only a machine and begin to think of it as part of the family. I am and always have been a diehard Ford fan. Growing up my family always owned Fords and they were great, dependable, and reliable vehicles. I wouldn't dream of purchasing a vehicle that did not have a big blue oval on it. Thank you for building the best cars and trucks on the road!
P.S. I'll write back when we break 400,000!

A long-sought Australian relic — the head of bandit folk hero Ned Kelly — has (allegedly) been discovered in the cupboard of a New Zealand witch, according to reports.
The witch seemed apologetic when turning over the skull, saying "I have treated it with respect; I haven't lit candles in it or drunk red wine out of it or anything bohemian like that."
Anna Hoffman, 74, told New Zealand's Herald on Sunday newspaper that a uniformed security guard had given her the skull at a family dinner 30 years ago while she was on holiday in Australia.
"We got talking about skulls and the next day he turned up with this skull. He said it was Ned Kelly's skull, and told me to 'put it in the bottom of your bag and wrap it up'."
Australia, if history is correct, was once loaded with scoundrels like Ned Kelly,

Parent involvement
Noonan Elementary Academy has been a blessing to our entire family. The various opportunities to be involved with the school is a wonderful way to encourage our children's enthusiasm about learning. The entire staff goes above and beyond for each family and child. We are very happy here and it's because we see our children flourishing... that's the bottom line.
Noonan Academy provides the very best education in the Chicagoland area. We live in a district with excellent public schools, but choose to send our son to NEA because of the far superior education in both academics and religion that he gets there. My son requires speech therapy, and he receives this at NEA. The teachers and staff are phenominal.
What a great environment for my children! Caring teachers AND support staff. Mrs. Peggy is so helpful
Noonan Academy is an outstanding school! The academics are far superior to any other school we researched and the faith formation is phenomenal. It is so wonderful to see our children excelling and excited about their faith. The entire academy staff is compassionate and dedicated to every child. We are so blessed to have found this school for our children!
My familys plan was to send both of our children to Noonan from Nursery to 8th grade. While my son was in nursery they moved him half way through the year and put him with a lesser teacher and allowed the new students to be with the best and never told me. My kid went to Nursery, Prek, and is now in k, during that time I have seen 6 teachers leave. We were told during our first parent teacher meeting that my son only knew 4 of the 26 sight words and that it was our fault. I came to learn that the school never sent home the 2 weekly reading book and the 3 weekend books that all students were suppose to be reading. I was also told they have weekly reading groups yet my son in 2 months only learned 4 words in those groups. I have been very involved and have donated a lot of money and time to this school. At this point I relize that this school is disorganized and allows some kids to recieve the proper learning tools but not all of them. I would not recommend this school to anyone looking for a good acedemic base for their children. This is very sad to me as I now feel like my childs kindegarden experience will forever be taited by Noonans failures to properly educate children
After extensive research in the west and south suburbs we have found Noonan Academy to be far superior in the areas of religion and academics than other schools we visited and interviewed. Although the tuition is quite a bit higher than other private schools it is well worth very penny to have the piece of mind that my children are at the best place they could be. The staff is caring, excellent and unlike any other. We feel so blessed to have discovered this academy!
Noonan Academy is top notch in every respect. I have 3 children at the Academy and have been there for 7 years now. I am most impressed with how well formed the children are in their faith. I went to 12 years of Catholic school learned more from my children in the first year at NEA than I did in 12 years!! This school has strengthened my own faith and brought my family to a stronger, happier, and healthier place. Well worth the investment in your child's future!!!!!
I absolutely love this school! We have three children, ages 11, 9 and 7. We feel Noonan's dedicated principals, teachers, staff and volunteers are totally commited to giving our children an encouraging start on a bright future. I couldn't imagine sending my children anywhere else. When your children enjoying going to school - what more can you ask for?
We've had children at Noonan for over five years. While we've appreciated the family oriented Christian environment and values-based curriculum, as our children entered middle school, we became more aware of the need for the school to strengthen its language (Spanish) and science offerings. These are two areas where the school is not competitive with the public junior high schools in the area. However, it has the best drama club for middle school in Illinois!
It is an excellent school in two ways. One, the spiritual formation is authentic, faithful to the Magisterium, and at the core of the mission of the school. Secondly, the academics are superior. They are carefully chosen. The student's needs are met, whether they are at an AP level or in need of assistance. Our family has been there now for 9 years. The school is wonderful- from the top down; the principles and teachers are moral people who instill a sense of virtue in our children. The parents are kind, genuinely interested, and very self giving.
This school really has it all. Yes Orland school system is good. What really gets me is the outstanding education coupled with the following fact.Knowing that once my kids reach jr high they will only be around clean cut quality kids . I have seen some of those kids at the public school and no thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Every day I drop my children off I am confident that the school will continue to implement the values I set at home that are often put aside in society today. My first grader went into KDG a non-reader and in now fluet at the end of her first grade year with 3rd grade reading material. My preschool child is reading basic sight words but more importantly has the phonimic base necessary to begin reading. The teachers go above and beyond and always treat the children with respect and dignity. They model everything in the way they treat others. As long as I can afford to send my children to NEA I will do so. I am thankful for the morals, ethics and solid academic foundation they give to the children.
i <3-ed (I Loved it) it was cool!!!!!!! AWESOME UNIFORMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I attended this school from first grade all the way through 8th grade graduation. Although (from a kid's point of view) the rules put in place here may seem unimaginable, they are in fact not so bad after they are gotten used to and very necessary. The teachers here really do care about the students' success (after all, public schools around her have better pay, and teachers could choose to teach there; most teach here because they want to be able to care about the kids). The parent involvement is also wonderful, as most parents are involved in after-school activities and love helping out (i.e. drama club -- at least 95% volunteer work, probably more, and the shows they put on are great!). I would most definitely recommend this amazing school to anyone, especially if a Catholic/Christian enriched education is what you are looking for.
Great caring teachers and always keep parents abreast of child's activities in school. One of the best schools in the area.
The parents at this school are amazing in every way. I have been privileged to work with them on many occasions. They are the most dedicated buch of people I have ever met. The academic programs are a step ahead, literally. People who have left the Academy return to tell us that our third grade is using their new school's fourth grade textbooks. My son who is in 8th grade and has been at the Academy since kindergarten recently took the entrance exam at Mt. Carmel and passed with flying colors. Music and art are subjects taught to all the children. I was amazed when my kindergartener saw a painting and informed me that it 'looks like a Jackson Pollock'-- and she was right! There is also an extra currucular band. I would recommend Noonan Academy to anyone desiring a quality education, Catholic or not.

iPhone 4 gets a gyroscope and becomes a window into virtual worlds
Steve Jobs announced in his WWDC 2010 keynote that the iPhone 4 will have a gyroscope. The numerous developers in the audience applauded and are obviously looking forward to working with this new piece of hardware. This is not surprising as it adds exciting new functions for gaming in a 3D environment.
Until now iPhones have been equipped with an accelerometer which has been used in some games but was very limited in terms of sensitivity and precision of the movement. Now the accelerometer and gyroscope will work together and enable iPhones to sense precise motion on six axis – up/down, left/right, forward/backward. Additionally airplane-like movements like pitch, yaw and roll can also be detected. Similar techniques are used in Wii controllers and the upcoming Playstation Move.

Up and down the online game value chain
It's well known that online games have been shortening the value chain, threatening the roles of middlemen such as publishers, distributors and retailers, and enabling developers to get in direct contact with players. However, as some very interesting discussions pointed out a few months ago, acquiring users (call it marketing, or traffic acquisition) is hard and expensive, which lends considerable power to other actors in the chain, such as:
- Digital distribution sites, like Steam
- Platform managers
- Aggregators, like Miniclip
- Community and media websites
- Ad networks
- SEO-savvy "gateway" portals (MMO lists, etc)
Channels like these have grown greatly in influence, and the conditions of working with the most prominent ones are becoming increasingly expensive (some of the biggest aggregators now ask for either lots of cash, or equity). Read the rest of this entry »

Pitching to publishers : Do's and Dont's (part 1)
If you are an online games developer and you feel that going with a publisher is the best solution for you, maybe our experience from the other side of the fence might be useful. This is mainly considering online games pitches, but I guess some of the tips may work for offline projects too.
What has most struck us working for a big publisher evaluating projects, is that being good at pitching can be very different from being a good developer. Good publisher-side Biz dev people should be the ones able to recognize the awesome product that is very badly pitched. However, if you are the pitcher, it's probably safer to assume that you are developing a good product and that you want to pitch it well.
Disclaimer : this might be quite subjective: if you are a publisher and reading this, we are very interested to get your opinion about it! Read the rest of this entry »

A New Jersey legislative committee investigating the traffic-jam scandal that has rocked Gov. Chris Christie's administration released hundreds of documents Friday that could shed more light on the politically motivated lane closings that created gridlock at the George Washington Bridge.
The subpoenaed records — including correspondence involving Christie's inner circle — were made public a day after the Republican governor moved quickly to contain the scandal that could damage his expected run for the White House in 2016.
Christie on Thursday fired a top aide, cut ties to one of his chief political advisers and apologized repeatedly to the people of New Jersey for the "stupid" behavior of his staff.
He again denied he had any role in the apparent attempt to punish the mayor of Fort Lee — the town at the foot of the bridge — for not endorsing Christie for re-election last fall.
The four days of traffic jams last September delayed emergency vehicles, school buses and countless commuters at the bridge, one of the busiest spans in the world, crossed by more than 100 million cars and trucks a year.
"I am embarrassed and humiliated by the conduct of some of the people on my team," an uncharacteristically subdued Christie said in an extraordinary news conference nearly two hours long, during which he patiently took dozens of questions.
Allies of Christie suggested the worst is behind him. But critics promise to keep probing what happened, federal prosecutors are examining the case, and the internal documents released Friday could take the scandal in new directions.
"Unless something new develops, I think he'll survive," said former New Jersey Gov. Tom Kean, a Republican who was a mentor to Christie. "But if there's a pattern of these things, if other incidents emerge with similar characteristics, that's going to be a real problem."
David Axelrod, a top adviser to President Barack Obama's campaigns, said Christie handled the high-profile news conference "as well as he could."
Unless a smoking gun turns up, "he lives to fight another day," Axelrod tweeted.
Christie had previously assured the public that his staff had nothing to do with the lane closings. But emails and text messages revealed Wednesday that his administration may have intentionally caused the traffic mess to exact vengeance against Mayor Mark Sokolich.
Christie said he fired Deputy Chief of Staff Bridget Anne Kelly, "because she lied to me" when he demanded weeks ago that anyone who knew anything about the episode come forward. He also jettisoned former campaign manager Bill Stepien, asking him to withdraw a bid to become the next state GOP chairman.
The governor said he was disturbed by the "callous indifference" Stepien displayed in the emails released this week. Stepien had widely been seen as a potential campaign manager for Christie if he runs for president.
Christie said he is still looking into the episode and will take action against other senior staff members if warranted.
The governor traveled to Fort Lee on Thursday to apologize in person to the mayor.

One Response to "More documents released in Christie bridge scandal"
So who else would like to see the media act like journalists instead of Journolistas? For those with faulty memories and liberals to the one, that was when emails were exposed that showed what climate scientists were saying to each other about climate science in order to keep those government grants rolling. But I digress…
The President is a serial liar and a ruthless political activist, and has a track record of handling "crisis" that makes it impossible to fail to see the contrast between how a leader covers up and using the government to circumvent the nation's laws and advance Progressivism (aka socialism, communism, Obamunism, take your pick they're all the same), and a leader who acts on principle, does so swiftly, decisively and then stands in front of reports (himself) until the reporters complain that he took their best shots for too long.
The fishing expedition has just begun for Christie and anything that can be distorted into discrediting the man who polls indicate will beat any Democrat if the 2016 elections were held today, will be given top, top, top priority and top fold real estate on what we used to call newspapers. The Journolistas that call themselves mainstream media aren't likely to notice that Christie (a Governor) and Obama (the President) are complete opposites when it comes to character. Don't get wrong, I truly believe that Obama is a man of deep conviction politically and a person who is unwaveringly supportive of said convictions. The contrast is that one man (Obama) maneuvers and manipulates to create political hocus pocus to dupe a very dupe prone electorate into believing that 2+2=5 (see 1982 for a clue-by-four), and a man who acts on principle and accepts the fact that other people who have different opinions in a free society is central to American freedom and what we are as a nation.
None of this will stop, or even slow down, rabid liberals with hate dripping from their fangs as they troll the internet in an effort to manufacture "truth by consensus". It's a mental illness really, and one worthy of pity and should be covered under Obamacare. The notion that the truth, even if it is believed by only one is still the truth, is a foreign to them as the idea that we are a Constitutional Republic and not a democracy ruled by gullible mobs.

On December 6, I announced the TSD 5 index, a collection of five stocks that I picked mostly based upon my gut feeling about the company. Here's what was in the index on January 1:
Apple (AAPL, @ 84.84)
Hasbro (HAS, @ 27.25)
Whirlpool (WHR, @ 83.02)
Riverbed Technology (RVBD, @ 30.70)
Lowe's (LOW, @ 31.15)
So how did these stocks do during January? I took their closing price on February 2 and decided to do some comparisons.
Let's see how we're doing.
Apple (AAPL)
January 1: 84.84
February 2: 84.31
Change: -0.62%
Apple took a big jump in the middle of the month with the iPhone, then fell back to where they were at. Basically, no change.
Hasbro (HAS)
January 1: 27.25
February 2: 28.81
Change: +5.72%
People are starting to realize that Hasbro's numbers are great and they hold a ton of great licenses for 2007.
Whirlpool (WHR)
January 1: 83.02
February 2: 92.37
Change: +11.26%
They tossed off the terrible Hoover brand and are becoming more and more of a value stock, as value buyers are starting to sneak in.
Riverbed Technology (RVBD)
January 1: 30.70
February 2: 33.57
Change: +9.34%
Lots of deals being announced and lots of analyst upgrades have put some people on the Riverbed bandwagon.
Lowe's (LOW)
January 1: 31.15
February 2: 34.05
Change: +9.31%
Again, a few analyst upgrades and an announcement of expansion into Mexico were good for this home improvement giant.
Wow. My worst stock was Apple, during the month they announced the iPhone. Months like this make me feel like maybe I know what I'm talking about (not really, though). Here's the score:
Apple (AAPL, @ 84.31, -0.62%)
Hasbro (HAS, @ 28.81, +5.72%)
Whirlpool (WHR, @ 92.37, +11.26%)
Riverbed Technology (RVBD, @ 33.57, +9.34%)
Lowe's (LOW, @ 34.05, +9.31%)
Overall: 257.45, +6.08%
This was a very nice month, especially considering I was down 4% for December on this portfolio. I'm very happy with this performance and I think that a few of them will continue to climb throughout the year.

Fabric: canvas
Price Paid: $14
This is an excellent rough country hat. I use it considerably in the back country. It actually stays pretty warm even when I have gotten it soaked in mountain thunderstorms.
It is also very bomber. I generally wear almost anything out. I tend to go hard and long and wear clothes that I really like until they fall apart. This hat is stacking up and fighting this trend. It is good for dipnetting, brushhucking, and climbing. It is the ultimate hat and it is big enough to fit my 7 7/8th melon. I can't find many hats that can do that.

To everyone who has sent me a question,
I apologize for the delays in replying. I have been very busy lately in my personal life and have not had as much time to read and answer them. I will try to get to them as quickly as I can. I thank you for your patience and understanding.
Tom of the Medical State of Mind
When I first started writing on the Medical State of Mind, there were very few medical tumblrs, or medblrs as we are known now. I could count on (less than) two hands, how many strongly medically oriented tumblrs existed.
Looking at this list now, and the many additions since by fellow bloggers and readers, it is truly impressive how much the medical blogosphere has changed. Having said that, there are still many barriers and challenges from within and without to create standards that allow everyone to both speak their minds and respect the boundaries of the profession.
We have our work cut out for us to move at the same speed as the change around us.
I am very honoured to be a part of this list and encourage everyone to check out some of the other blogs on this list as well.
Bonjour tout le monde!
Let this be proof that Tammy and I are alive and well. I apologize for the lack of posts lately. There has be a significant challenge with usable internet that still plagues us.
Currently though, I have enough down time to at least update everyone on how I have been.
Emails are still on the back burner at this moment but I am unfortunately grounded "somewhere in France" due to unforeseen events.
The Société Nationale des Chemins de fer Français (SNCF) workers here have been on strike and our train that was to lead us on our next leg of the train was grounded. We have had to make some significant adjustments to our itinerary.
Having said that though, we are making the most of it and enjoying our slight detour in France for the next few days.
By the 22nd, I should be home, by which time postings should resume their normal schedule.
Thanks to everyone for their patience and I look forward to updating you all again soon!
Tom of the Medical State of Mind
EDIT: A reader has correctly pointed out that it is the SNCF that is on strike, not the entire EuroRail system. Thanks for pointing this out.
Thanks to everyone who has written in with well wishes and congratulations. Tammy and I are very humbled by your support as we approach our big day together.
On a different note, apologies for the break in form. There has obviously been a shortage of medically-themed posts recently but I assure you that will return in due time. Thanks again for your patience and understanding as we celebrate this once in a lifetime moment.
Tammy and Tom
There was a time when I did not hide behind a veil of anonymity on this blog. It was many years ago now. But since reaching that conclusion, I have always tried to keep my two identities separate. Having said that, how to separate two sides of the same coin?
The majority of my readers have yet to meet me in person but a few have. Some of my initial readers were within my close circle of friends and acquaintances. It would come as a surprise on a few occasions since, that I have met people whom I have been acquainted with that also read this blog. Some of these people discovered it by accident, never fully realizing it was I who penned these posts. Others heard from a friend of a friend, as these things tend to go.
But recently, I met a complete stranger who recognized me at a bus stop. It was a chance encounter, based on the memory of who I was before I became the anonymous Tom of the Medical State of Mind.
"This may seem crazy, but I think I follow your blog."
"I beg your pardon?" I was taken aback.
"Do you keep a blog? I think I might be following it."
"What blog is it that you follow?" I decided I would neither deny or admit to anything.
"The Medical State of Mind."
I paused. The gig as they say, was up. I gave a smile in acknowledgment. It was a strange feeling to be recognized this way in public. I knew nothing about this person yet they knew everything about my medical schooling experience for the last four years. While everything I share publicly online I curate heavily and have no regrets, for a brief moment, I felt naked and exposed.
We spoke a bit about my blog, about school, about where my training would take me before this person thanked me as we boarded our separate buses.
A digital identity in today's world is an extension of who we are in reality. It is an inseparable presence that we must all be conscientious of. Everything I write is heavily curated, fictionalized, and anonymized to protect those mentioned in the experiences I have had in these last four years. But the one thing I hold constant and true on this blog is myself. It was this honesty that led to this chance encounter with a stranger.
I have always been comfortable with who I am and what I write. However, out of respect to my faculty and my governing college, I have explored a different path to allay their concerns. The encounter left me not with a feeling of anxiety or fear but of relief and acknowledgment. While there are risks with social media in any situation, when used appropriately I am confident it can make a difference, as it seemed to for this individual.
At least one thing is certain though.
We live in a small world.
I would like to extend my thanks to everyone, especially those who wrote in yesterday. I am happy I have made it this far and with all of your support over these past few years.
Thanks for making my journaling process an amazing experience.
Tom of the Medical State of Mind
Thanks for the compliment. I honestly cannot tell you how muchtime-wise I have invested into this blog. I would probably say "far too many hours." Financially however, my total investment to date is the healthy sum of: $10.
The return on that investment:
And there is still room to take that ten dollar bill further as I hope to continue blogging into residency and beyond. Thanks again for your question and take care.

As we head into the final minutes, let me just note that there's something a bit odd about a rivalry that's this intense — driven by three-straight first-round playoff matchups — between teams that are basically unimpressive. I mean, it would be a genuinely shocking Black Swan event if either of these squads won a championship. Probably nobody outside of DC or Cleveland really cares about this matchup, but we care a lot.

Have you ever heard of the Land of Beyond,
That dream at the gates of the day?
Alluring it lies at the skirts of the skies,
And ever so far away . . .
Thanks for stopping by.
The Land of Beyond...a hummarcus collaboration by hummbuzz
My WorldSometimes life is so beautiful that it hurts
Other times life can make you so angry that you curse it
But here, in this moment
Gazing into the darkness of the night
With the cool wind kissing my face
And listening to the rain gently fall to the ground
I can hardly hold back my tears
Because this world is what it is
A world of hope
A world of pain
A world of love
A world of hate
A world of ups
And a world of downs
But it's my world
It's my existence
And even though in this moment
My simple human life is tearing me into shreds,
My complex life as a being of this universe
Is always perfect and complete.
How It Began"God, your two o'clock is here."
"I have a two o'clock?"
"He's been here since 7:45. I figured it's only polite to... sir."
God sighed. "Fine, send him in."
While He waited God cleared His desk of papers and blueprints; no need for outsiders to see His plans. Soon enough the door to His office opened and God stood, smiled, held out a hand towards one of the two visitor's chairs.
"God! Great stuff you're doing in sector 2-7-0! Great stuff!"
The man's hands were clammy, his handshake limp. Rumpled suit, porkpie hat, briefcase... oh Jes-- oh dear, a salesman. God's smile slipped a little but He soldiered on gamely. With luck He could shoo the poor guy away in a few minutes.
"So, what can I do for you?"
The man sat, briefcase across his knees. "Sector 2-7-0! Everyone's talking about it! What do you call it? Man and merman?"
"Man and woman, actually. And thanks. But we're pretty busy around here, and..."
"Oh! Right! No time for the wicked, eh?" The salesman winked and popped his briefcase,

2013 Acura MDX
- Used Acura MDX
- Repairs Acura MDX
2013 Acura MDX Review
Test drivers say the 2013 Acura MDX is a very good choice for anyone looking for a seven-seat upscale crossover with lots of technology and good handling.
The MDX is a favorite with reviewers for its refined handling, which is aided by its standard all-wheel drive. Although some crtitics say it feels sluggish off the line, most are generally pleased with the power from the Acura MDX's standard 300-horsepower V6 engine, and say it is well-matched to its six-speed automatic transmission. Auto reviewers also like its steering, which they say provides good feedback to the driver. Its weakest attribute is its fuel economy, which, at 16/21 mpg city/highway, is mediocre for this class.
The MDX is the 2013 Best Luxury 3-Row Midsize SUV for the Money because it has the best combination of ownership costs and positive reviews in its class.
Automotive writers say the Acura MDX's seven-seat cabin is upscale and well-built, with good material quality. They also like the array of technology it is available with, including navigation, a multi-view camera and a solar-sensing climate system. Some are overwhelmed by the great number of buttons that adorn the center stack. The MDX seats seven in three rows, with a third row that lacks space for longer trips for anyone other than children. The other seats draw high marks for comfort from nearly all reviewers.
- "Acura's 2013 MDX continues to wow customers and confound the competition. The 7-passenger MDX doesn't offer a host of different trims or engine choices, nor is it the freshest face on the block. What the MDX does have going for it is a long and stellar history, one chock-full of positive accolades and repeat customers. In the 2013 MDX, Acura has achieved the perfect blend of size, power, fuel economy, ride, handling and luxury." -- Kelley Blue Book
- "The 2013 Acura MDX delivers plenty of luxury, refinement and performance without breaking the bank, making it a standout in its class." -- Edmunds
- "Acura's bread-and-butter SUV is getting a bit long in the tooth, but that doesn't mean it isn't an excellent vehicle that's worth your consideration." -- Consumer Guide
- "It proffers creamy ride quality (even in sport mode, which is the default setting), generally good steering feel, comfortable seats, respectable roominess in its second and third rows, subdued road and wind noise in most conditions, and ease of operation." -- Car and Driver (2011)
Other Luxury SUVs to Consider
If you're looking for a sporty upscale SUV and don't need a third row, the Infiniti FX is a good choice. Like the Acura, Infiniti's FX has many technology features, and is also one of the best-performing vehicles in its class. It comes standard with a V6, but is also available with a powerful V8.
The Audi Q7 is a strong choice for its spacious cabin that seats seven, as well as its classy styling and refined handling. The Q7 is even available with a diesel engine, which gets outstanding fuel economy for the class.
Details: 2013 Acura MDX
The 2013 Acura MDX is available in one trim level, but can be equipped with several option packages. It is powered by a V6 engine, which is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is standard. The Acura MDX received a fairly comprehensive refresh in 2010, and since it sees no major changes for the 2013 model year, this overview uses applicable research and reviews from 2010 through 2013.

When I transferred here from my old university, I noticed that the professors were dedicated in teaching their students I learned so much and even understood the subjects that I usually struggled in.
To find more tips for prospective students, what to do for fun and whether this school is great for a particular type of student read the 145 reviews for Montgomery College
Curious about something that isn't answered here? Feel free to ask Montgomery College a question
Montgomery College has a large range of teachers, many are fantastic and some are unquestionable. The student life here puts in a lot of effort. Once you find the right counselor everything will be smooth sailing.Read More
Montgomery College is one of the best schools with great professors and courses. My experience as a student at Montgomery college was worth while, because the professors want you to succeed and will do anything in their will to help you. I hope there are more professors so caring and knowledge such as the ones at Montgomery College at my new school.Read More
Montgomery College is the perfect school for somebody who wants to work and continue their education. So far my professors have been amazing and extremely helpful and help me reach my full potential. I have also met a lot of like-minded peers at Montgomery College who do the same.Read More
Montgomery College has more students enrolling every year. Great affordable school. Needs more teachers.Read More
Montgomery College is an excellent place for students who are not quite yet ready to attend a four-year institution. Whether it is economic, family, or personal issues that deter a student from leaving home, Montgomery College is a sound solution. Since it is so inexpensive, it is an extremely viable way for a student to get credits out of the way before continuing on for a bachelor's degree.Read More
Montgomery College is a great place to get started. Professors for the most part are amazing and will help you if you put the effort. Email them and let them know what your struggles are, I can guarantee you will get passing grades.Read More
Montgomery College is a great affordable school. Even though it is a community college, it does not feel like it. Professors really do try to challenge you.Read More
The classes are good overall it all depends on the professor as well. Some of the classes are harder here than at a university so when you transfer its much easier that community college. If i could rate the college on the scale of 1-10 I would give the school a 9.5-10.Read More
Montgomery College is a great place to prepare for a transfer and get an affordable education. Although the price is low the quality does not suffer what so ever, their facilities and faculty are wonderful. The only down side is not all students attending take their education as seriously as you might, but you can't let that get in the way of making the best of a great school.Read More

Americans really have little choice when it comes to Congress and Israel as anyone who refuses to cooperate with AIPAC is unlikely to find himself in the running, but there should at least be some awareness of what happens routinely to prospective candidates to insure conformity with the Lobby's viewpoint.
Mayor de Blasio's secret appearance before the hard-line American Israel Public Affairs Committee touched off a behind-the-scenes backlash among his liberal Jewish supporters, private emails obtained by the Daily News show.
The United States says it is observing the situation in Ukraine with "grave concern" after Russia deployed its troops to the strategic Ukrainian Crimea region. Secretary of State John Kerry has also said that "all options are on the table" with regard to the crisis in the country.
A new copy of a satirical version of an AIPAC policy conference promotional video has been posted online after YouTube shut down the account that posted the original video.
The Israeli lobby in the US has been trying to "suppress" a revealing 28-page section of a classified Congressional report on the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks that reportedly points to Israeli involvement in 9/11, according to an intelligence analyst.
A new report says the pro-Israel lobby group, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), is planning to launch a major campaign to push US lawmakers into backing White House plans for a strike against Syria.
Rep. Jane Harman , the California Democrat with a longtime involvement in intelligence issues, was overheard on an NSA wiretap telling a suspected Israeli agent that she would lobby the Justice Department reduce espionage-related charges against two officials of the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee, the most powerful pro-Israel organization in Washington.
This courageous woman seems to have the one of the few spines left in the Houses of Congress.
Jewish militant forced to apologize, and pay medical bills
Researched, Produced and Directed by Abir Alsayed.
Abir Alsayed profiles former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney for Al Jazeera in a 25-minute short film:
The Lobby is pushing America into another war for Israel.
The full People's Microphone inside the panel said:"Mic check!Ros-Lehtinen is pushing warbased on lies.We are the 99%Wars benefit the 1%Don't bomb Iran!...
If a bill pushed by Lieberman passes, it could give the US "political authorisation for military force" against Iran.
We are excited to announce that plans for OCCUPY AIPAC are under way and we hope you will join us March 2-6 in Washington DC.
... Exactly how the United States benefits from making Israel's enemies its own is not clear...
C'est acquis. Il n'y aura pas de nouvel État palestinien. Mais le déclin de l'influence et du pouvoir de nuisance de l'Entité israélienne semblent irréversiblement amorcés.
Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders loves to rail against Wall Street and the super-rich, but we at WUFYS don't trust him. Here's why…
In a related development, a group of 18 officials from Asia, Europe, Africa and Latin America will go to Israel on Monday for a weeklong tour and high-level meetings. Some countries represented are likely candidates to either vote against, or abstain, when Palestinian statehood comes before the UN in September.
On the night of June 20th, AIPAC shared with President Obama $1.5 million in campaign donations. He was truly grateful. So much so that he cuddled afterwards. "After the speech, the president stayed for a closed-door session in which he answered questions about his policy on Israel for another hour." Forward tell us. He knows he will be able to come for more, too.
What I am going to write here is controversial and may come as a surprise. I hope you will consider my argument with an open mind. Rather than bowing to Jewish chiliastic fantasies and singing praises to them, and instead of demonizing Arab people and Muslims as a whole as if they were subhumans unworthy of our love and forgiveness, Christians should instead be preaching the resurrected Christ to them. Meanwhile, true patriotic, freedom-loving right-wing conservatives should return to minding their own national affairs, and pursuing the interests of their own people rather than those of powerful lobbies, including the likes of AIPAC.
There was no information that the Obama regime has quietly given Netanyahu a green light to attack the ship. But I strongly expect they will; by deniable means, of course.
The collapses of the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre, on September 11, 2001, were the most frightening images that I have ever seen, up until May 24th, 2011, when Binyamin Netanyahu addressed a joint session of the United States Congress and received 29 standing ovations, along with many other outbursts of sycophantic applause.
Because they're owned by AIPAC?
On May 23 activists drawn from more than 100 organizations demanded the U.S. Department of Justice regulate the American Israel Public Affairs Committee as an agent of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Most of Congress is ignorant about the real nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and about the real consequences of American foreign policy relative to it. That ignorance is sustained by the fact that the U.S. information environment relating to the conflict is still largely controlled by the Zionists. For instance, much of the briefing material on the issue going to Congressional members is produced by AIPAC and allied Zionist organizations, the State Department has been purged of anyone sympathetic to the Palestinians or the Arabs in general, the media remains almost uniformly biased in favor of Israel, and finally, for the politicians, ignorance is underwritten by that 24% of their campaign contributions. It also helps enormously that this ignorance is shared by the American public at large.
Republican Leader Eric Cantor, says Congress will not pay for the heart-breaking and unprecedented tornado disaster relief in Missouri unless spending is "cut from somewhere else". How about Israel, asshole?

Police arrested CODEPINK peace activist Rae Abileah at the George Washington University Hospital in Washington DC. Abileah was taken to the hospital after having been assaulted and tackled to the ground by AIPAC members of the audience in the House Gallery during Israel Prime Minister Netanyahu's speech to Congress.
A "Move Over AIPAC" activist who interrupted Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu during his speech to US Congress has been hospitalised due to injuries received. The protester claims she was beaten by AIPAC activists before being detained.
Rae Abileah, a 28 year old Jewish American of Israeli descent, heckled Netanyahu from the gallery of US Congress. Abileah shouted "stop Israeli war crimes". She was confronted by American Israel Public Affairs Committee members in the gallery who tackled her to the ground before she was led out by security.
Former US lawmaker Cynthia McKinney says every candidate for Congress has to sign a pledge to vote for supporting the military superiority of Israel.

A child bride at 12, Isabella swiftly learns that her husband is more interested in men. Parliament, wary of Edward's lovers, places Isabella on the throne to rule with Edward. As a result, she moves out of the shadows, ready to take advantage of her position -- especially after falling in love with

PLAYERS: Peyton Manning, Joe Mays, Tracy Porter, Chris Harris, Tony Carter, Keith Brooking, Willis McGahee, Knowshon Moreno, Tom Brady
TEAMS: Denver Broncos, New England Patriots
TEAMS: Denver Broncos, New England Patriots
(Photo by Jim Rogash/Getty Images) Can the Broncos beat the Patriots if when we meet them in the playoffs? A few weeks back, I wrote an article diving into the all important playoff question… Can the Broncos beat the Patriots? Today, I'm re-examining that very question. Eleven weeks ago, we played the Patriots in Foxboro, and after a rash of self inflicted wounds, we ended up in the 4th quarter with the chance to tie the game after we snared the game's momentum into our favor. Our offense was still trying to find their way while Peyton Manning knocked the rust off after missing the entire 2011 season. Our defense was just plain horrible (ranked 30th) as Joe Mays and Tracy Porter were still in the starting lineup. Our special teams were vanilla and boring in every sense of the word. Yes my fellow Broncos fanatics, we were a middle of the pack team trying to find their way. However, a strange thing started happening after that game; we started developing chemistry. When injury strikes a normal team, that team takes a hit. As strange and dreadfully wrong as this might sound, when injury struck the Denver Broncos, we got exponentially better. Out goes Tracy Porter, in comes Chris Harris and Tony Carter. Out goes Joe Mays, in comes Keith Brooking. Out goes Willis McGahee, in comes Knowshon Moreno. Yes, the injury Gods have been very kind to the Broncos indeed. Today, we find ourselves sitting at 12-3 with the No. 2 defense and No. 4 offense in the NFL. Our special teams are once again a threat, and we are blazing a trail through the NFL. With the No. 2 Seed in the playoffs firmly in hand (and a very real possibility at the No. 1 seed), the Broncos are hitting the playoffs as the hottest team in the NFL. What's even more frightening for opposing teams is that not only can the Broncos hang with every team in the league, but we haven't even played our best football yet. Onto the question at hand… Can the Broncos beat the Patriots? Yes! Emphatically, Yes! Not only can the Broncos beat the Patriots, but there is strong sentiment circulating around the media that the Patriots might purposefully tank the Dolphins game so that they can avoid playing the Broncos in the playoffs. There is also strong sentiment that the Patriots need the home field advantage in the playoffs more than the Broncos. So let me get this straight, if a team needs home field advantage more, and might purposefully try to lose a game in order to dodge another team, how can there even be an argument saying that they can beat the Broncos? There simply can't be such an argument. The Broncos are the most complete team in the league, and are the Vegas odds on favorite to win the Super Bowl. We don't NEED to play in Denver in order to win, and we certainly won't try to dodge anyone. Yes fellow Broncos fans, the Denver Broncos are THE team to beat in the NFL. I can see it now, Moreno tearing up the off-balanced Patriots, and Peyton Manning carving them up through the air thanks to the ridiculously effective play action. As the game goes on, Tom Brady will get more desperate to make a play and start throwing picks. A few weeks ago, I said that no, we couldn't beat the Patriots. Today however, yes, we can beat the Patriots. Not only can we beat them, we can beat them in convincing fashion. This game won't come down to an end of game field goal, no, we can beat them by 10+. Make sure to bring the noise for our playoff game! Instead of picking holes in our game, lets ride this amazing ride and beat our chests like its 1998 all over again! What do you think BT faithful?
