For the AJC
Derrick Craine and Tyler Vaughn were not ready for that losing feeling to return to their Union Grove locker room.
The seniors, who had endured a record of 8-12 over the previous two seasons, began this campaign with two straight wins. Then came a 39-0 thumping at the hands of Whitewater in Game 3. But Craine and Vaughn decided that loss would be enough for their last campaign.
After a serious talk with their mates, the Wolverines bludgeoned their next four opponents by a combined score of 140-20. Friday night, Mundy's Mill was next.
Union Grove (7-1, 4-0 in Region 4AAAAA-Division A) scored 28 unanswered points in an 18 minute period from the start of the second quarter to the middle of the third. The result was a 35-13 shellacking of the visiting Tigers (3-5, 3-1), which put the Wolverines firmly in control of their post season destiny. A win at Drew next week would give Union Grove the top seed in the region play-in game, where they would face the fourth seed from other side of the sub region on Nov. 9, in a battle for a playoff birth. It would be the Wolverines' first playoff appearance since 2009.
"That Monday before practice, me and Tyler got [the team] together in the locker room and had a pretty long talk," Craine, who rushed for 147 yards and two touchdowns on 24 carries, said of the team meeting after the Whitewater loss. "We told them we can't play like that again, and it's going to take a lot of blood, sweat and tears for us to get better."
"We've lost too many times," said Vaughn, a linebacker, who led the defense with two tackles for losses. "We weren't going to go back to that."
That attitude came to the front after Mundy's Mill tied the score at 7-7 early in the second quarter on an 8-yard run by junior tailback Rodney Smith. The score capped a 51-yard drive for the Tigers, with most of the damage being done on the ground by Smith.
But that's when what looked to be a tight ball game turned into a rout. On the ensuing possession on second and long, sophomore running back Luke Parker took a screen pass from quarterback Jonathan Slade, also a sophomore, and dipped and darted 37 yards for a touchdown.
The diminutive Parker, who is one of the state's best lightweight wrestlers, struck again on Mundy's Mill's next possession. On third-and-10 from the Tigers' 42-yard line, the shotgun snap sailed over the head of sophomore quarterback Rodricous Gates, who made matters worse by trying to kick the ball 30 yards out of the back of the end zone. However, he whiffed on the kick and the ball bounced into the hands of Parker, who sprinted 25 yards for the score.
Mundy's Mill went three-and-out on its next possession, and the Wolverines wasted no time in scoring again. On their first play, Slade lofted a pass down the near sideline to junior receiver Caleb Ham, who out sprinted the defender and raced 56 yards to give Union Grove an insurmountable 28-7 lead with just 35 seconds left in the half.
The Wolverines added to the barrage on the first possession of the second half when they drove 67 yards on 12 plays, with Craine taking it in from 9-yards out.
Smith had a good night at times running the ball for the Tigers (22 carries for 120 yards), but the Union Grove defense stood tall when it had to, including a goal-line stand midway through the fourth quarter when the game's outcome was no longer in doubt.
"We have a very mature group of seniors," head coach Paul Bergdorf said. "They decided that they were not going to let the Whitewater game define our season."
Mundy's Mill 0 7 0 6 13
Union Grove 7 21 7 0 35
UG – Derrick Craine 13 run (Shawn Davis kick)
MM – Rodney Smith 8 run (Loic Chimi kick)
UG – Luke Parker 37 pass from Jonathan Slade (Davis kick)
UG – Parker 25 return of bad snap (Davis kick)
UG – Caleb Ham 56 pass from Slade (Davis kick)
UG – Craine 9 run (Davis kick)
MM – Eric Tate 28 pass from Rodricous Gates (kick failed)

They may be a bit of a challenge to take care of and all, but have you ever taken a step back and thought about just how amazing your toddler really is?
And I don't mean the fact that you created him and he's the spitting image of you or anything like that. I'm talking about the whole philosophy on life toddlers have -- which is so simple and pure, it's kind of a shame that kids have to lose it once they grow up.
As crazy as it may sound, our lives would probably be much easier as adults if we all acted like little kids once in a while.
Here are eight great lessons we can all learn from our toddlers.
What other lessons has your toddler taught you?

When I think of Waffle House, I think of breakfast. I don't think of sex tapes and blackmail and secret affairs. But, I guess I wasn't aiming high enough, because Waffle House seems to have so much more to offer. In what's turning into a pretty weird and vicious game of he-said/she-said, the Waffle House CEO accused of sexually harassing his housekeeper for a decade says she's crying wolf. However, he may have been caught on tape. D'oh.
Lawyers for the woman, who alleges that Waffle House CEO Joe Rogers Jr. sexually harassed her and forced her to perform sex acts to keep her job for nearly a decade, turned over DVDs she made in secret. Meanwhile, Rogers is calming that the woman tried to extort millions from him and is crying blackmail and claiming everything was consensual. Whaaaaat? Pass the maple syrup, please. Looks like things are just getting started.
When the allegations surfaced last week, it painted a pretty sleazy picture of the Waffle House exec. The woman says she kept the job (and dealt with his advances) because she was a single mother and had to take care of her son. Now that he's got a college scholarship, she could speak up. My heart went out to the woman.
Rogers is claiming she said yes all along and that she and her lawyers sent a threatening blackmail letter, which certainly complicates the picture. But ... but why would she turn over sex tapes to the courts, tapes that are being kept private for now, if they didn't support her claims? That doesn't really make sense. Why would you turn over tapes that would ruin your case against someone who, if guilty, abused his authority and his power in such a disgusting way?
You wouldn't. Would you? I'm also so curious to know what's in this letter Rogers claims he was sent that he's calling "extortion."
I know we're all innocent until proven guilty, but this story totally skeeves me out. Shudder. But I kind of can't wait to see what happens next.
Do you think the sex tapes will prove that Waffle House CEO Joe Rogers Jr. is guilty or innocent?

originally i was outraged for this woman - how dare someone abuse their power and position in such a way! and for a single mother, who has to survive and take care of her son...
but then, i read the original article. and a little detail was omitted that i find VERY big: the woman accusing him of harassment worked for him from 2003-2008 until she was let go. she was rehired later as his house manager, but quit in June.
i'm not saying she's at fault, and we all know the economy is tough - but would YOU go back to work for a man who was blackmailing you with your job for sexual favors? why not come forward when you were let go FOUR years ago and make these allegations?
something about this just doesn't add up to me...

Chepstow says gooodbye to Alfie
Thursday, 21 March 2013
A wake for the much-loved 'Chepstow Cat', Alfie, was held in the Coach and Horses pub in Welsh Street on Sunday.
Between 75 and 100 people attended the event, all looking for somewhere to grieve for the famous moggy, who died last Tuesday (12th March).
Alfie has been a constant sight outside Chepstow's Merrick's pharmacy since moving to the area in 2003.
The cat, who reached the grand old age of 19, had gathered quite a fan base during his time in Chepstow. Well over 3,000 people have been following the little cat's activities on his own Facebook page.
Over 1700 people acknowledged the announcement of the cat's death last week, with 500 of these writing messages of condolence from as far away as Las Vegas and Australia.
The cat's owner, Caroline Gammon, has three other cats but Alfie was the only one who was keen to be outside.
Caroline has spoken of how the wake went: "There were people of all ages there. People you wouldn't have expected to see came along. There are even flowers outside the chemist with little cards on.
"It has made me really proud that Alfie is so famous. It has shocked me though as I didn't realise how many people saw him.
"A collection went around the pub and money was raised for the Cat's Protection Society. Another pub has also raised over £100 for the RSPCA in Alfie's memory.
"It is very sad to lose him. It's not just the fact that he's gone, but we had him for 19 years and we've seen the children grow up with him. His life represents a milestone in ours, he wasn't just a cat".
Coach and Horses manager Nick Meyrick said: "We wanted to hold the wake because of the amount of upset in the town about Alfie's death.
"It was a lovely event, there were loads of people here. I've lived in Chepstow since 1998 and I didn't recognise half the people that came. It was a fantastic send off."
Pub regular Tim Ryan read a poem for Alfie and talk has now even extended to applications to rename the bottom of Steep Street 'Alfie's Corner' or to put up a plaque in his honour.

How to Become a Morning Person

- From Snooze-Button Addict to Morning Person
- Sizing Up My Zzz's
- Resetting My Internal Clock
- Creating a Sleep Sanctuary
- Bypassing the Snooze Button
Bypassing the Snooze Button
On any given day, I hit the darn snoozer anywhere from three to six times. What's the big deal? Turns out, besides robbing myself of 30 to 60 minutes of sleep, I'm messing with my system. "It generally takes about an hour to reach deep, restorative sleep. Your fragmented morning dozing actually leaves you more tired," Dr. Haward explains.My Bedtime Story
Breaking up with Snooze is hard to do. Beep, beep! I want to throw the alarm clock across the room, but I can't, because Dr. Haward told me to put it in the living room. So I have to leave my comfortable bed to turn it off (well played, sleep doctor!). I stumble to the bathroom, splash some cold water on my face, clip the leash onto my dog, Theodore, and stagger out the door. "Go outside and take a walk right when you get up," I recall Dr. Haward telling me. "Bright light suppresses sleep-inducing melatonin." It works; 10 minutes later I feel surprisingly alert. Lesson learned: Once I'm out among the living, I'm fine. But how the heck do I crawl out from under those covers smiling instead of swearing?
Next morning I try an alarm clock that eases me into reality. The BlueMax Sunrise System Model 320 ($129, fullspectrumsolutions.com) grows progressively brighter as 7:30 a.m. nears. "Graduating-light alarm clocks are effective, especially during winter, when mornings are dark," Dr. Breus says. When I open my eyes, my mood is a little brighter too (although I would still rather go back to sleep).
On day three, I sweeten the deal with a get-up incentive. If I wake on time, I get to watch my fave show on TiVo after Theodore's walk (a stop at your favorite coffee shop or breakfast with a pal would also work). My oatmeal is a riot with Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin, and afterward I'm positively cheerful on the subway.
I experience a breakthrough a week later. My early-rising friend Carolina asks me to meet her at the park for a 7:45 a.m. doggie playdate. I'm pretty sure she thought I would say no on a Saturday, but I rise to the challenge. As soon as I step outside, I'm smiling. The sky seems bluer, my down parka feels cozier; I am in love with the morning! When I run into another friend at the park, she nearly falls over and asks, "What are you doing up so early?"Status Check
Ever since I discovered my inner morning person, I wake up at five every day. Just kidding. But it's way easier to get out of bed most of the time. The night after my two-week experiment ended, I decided to tempt fate and not set the 7:30 alarm. I awoke at a perfectly respectable 8:00! Now I'm typically up and moving at 7:30 on weekdays and 8:30 on weekends. My energy has increased, I no longer doze off on the subway in the morning, I'm in a better mood, and I've even dropped a few pounds, thanks to my new morning running routine.

Why do all these people who say they get up at 5 am come to this article to read it in the first place? Obviously this is for people who want to adjust their sleep schedule -- read the title. I for one, found the article very helpful and might try showers and meditation before bed.11/4/2013 04:29:11 PM Report Abuse

Let me get this straight...I have to spend $130 on a machine that makes noise, $223 for a blanket, and another $130 on an alarm clock? Almost $500? Eh, I think I'll stick to being a night owl. Stupid article and not very practical. Who has time to shower or bathe every night before bed, journal AND meditate? I'd rather sleep thank you very much10/24/2013 01:16:07 PM Report Abuse
Loved it!! She and I are snooze experts with our alarms.. Perhaps there is hope for me10/24/2013 11:54:48 AM Report Abuse
I think this article is timely. I've wanted to rise earlier to get in a workout, but it's been difficult. So, now I have a plan to follow and no chance to fail. Thanks10/24/2013 09:59:43 AM Report Abuse

Best Android smartphones (May 2013 edition)
Summary: Time to take a tour of a handful of the best Android smartphones currently available on the market. Here are some killer handsets from Google, HTC, Motorola, and Samsung.
7 of 8Image
(Image: Samsung)
Samsung Galaxy Note II
The Samsung Galaxy Note II is the Android smartphone for those people with large hands to hold it with, and large pockets to keep it in.
The Samsung Galaxy Note II really is a solid handset packed with an array of high-end features. It even comes with the S Pen that can be used to copy text, crop images, and to share content.
Jelly Bean (Android 4.1)
1.6 GHz quad-core Samsung Exynos processor
5.5-inch Super AMOLED HD display
8MP rear camera
1.9MP front camera
16/32/64GB internal storage
MicroSD slot
(Image: Motorola)
Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD
The Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD is Motorola's latest high-end smartphone, and it brings both a high-definition 4.7-inch display and a massive 3,300mAh battery, good enough for 32-hours of use.
It's also tough, constructed form DuPont Kevlar fibre and Corning Gorilla Glass, and features water-repellent nanoparticles to shield against water, even on the internal circuit boards.
The only downside to this handset is that it is powered by Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, but an upgrade to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean should be available before the end of the year.
Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0), but an update is on the way
Dual-core 1.5GHz processor
4.7-inch Super AMOLED HD Display, 720p (720x1280)
8MP rear-facing camera
1.3MP front-facing with 720p HD video capture
1080p HD video capture
32GB internal storage
MicroSD card slot.

Samsung Galaxy S3
Without a doubt, this is still one of the best Android smartphone available today — unless you want the S4, that is! If being at the bleeding edge doesn't matter, then the S3 is now a great buy since you can pick them up cheaply.
Not only is it packed with high-end features, such as an amazing 4.8-inch super AMOLED display and a really solid camera, but it also appeals to the bring-your-own-device (BYOD) crowd. The handset has a number of enterprise-friendly features, including AuthenTec's QuickSec VPN client technology that allows users to access corporate networks when out and about.
Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0)
1.5 GHz dual-core Krait processor
4.8-inch Super AMOLED display
8MP rear camera
1.9MP front camera
16/32GB internal storage
MicroSD slot

Undocumented protestors were arrested at the Democratic National Convention yesterday.
The presidential candidates and outside groups have spent $16.8 million on abortion-related campaign ads — twice the amount of money than ads on Medicare, and three times the amount than immigration-related ads.
Trigger warning. A very visceral story about sexual assault or, "I can't believe it's not rape."
Some notes on day 1 of the DNC via Megan Carpentier at Raw Story.

Stagnation is common in business, clubs, and any organisation which has a manager or someone giving directions.
More than likely they will fall into a similar routine, perhaps as a result of producing a winning formula and sticking with it. This is good for the immediate future of a club, and it may well build the foundation for the long term benefit of the club. But unless you step back, review and then adjust, your club won't understand what exactly it is that is working, what has been required, or how to do it.
Stepping back and reviewing doesn't mean leaving altogether. It may mean you sit on an advisory board to the club, it may mean that you sit in on committee meetings to lend advice when asked, either way you're still available.
This is important for those that eventually take over from you, along with those that merely participate in the club. They get the message that this place, this club is SO good that even the ex-President wants to stick around. It facilitates the sort of message you want your club to present, and breeds better decisions and more volunteering.

The role of data in sport
When dealing with Australian Sporting Associations it is noticeable that they could be doing much, much more with the funding they receive from State or National governments. It could be getting directed to specific regions and clubs based on insightful, grassroots data rather than gut instinct.
But data isn't being collected because the systems in place are woefully inadequate or built for national bodies rather than local bodies where the data gets fed in from.
Data should do three things:
- Confirm or disprove what sporting associations are already thinking.
- Make the sporting bodies ask the right questions.
- Cause the sporting bodies to act on what is discovered.
Whilst the federal government continues to provide blanket funding to sporting bodies who don't have appropriate data and governance systems suitable for all levels of sport it will continue to be wasted.
One size does not fit all. Pluggable APIs, pluggable UIs, pluggable UXs are all required. Australian Sports needs to get smarter with the data they're not collecting. It will help the competitors, the high-performance athletes, the volunteers, the supporters and other stakeholders at all levels.
This is big picture thinking that is simply not being done, and not even being discussed which is sadly to everyone's detriment.
Paying for help.
Typically clubs pay for the things that they consider matter (and they do), things like more footballs, coaching talent, training equipment or more drink bottles. Unfortunately there seems to be no desire to get better at the administration things that matter. A long day at work usually sours our desire for administration at the club. We tend to avoid another meeting, reading more notes and dealing with other overheads.
Now consider how much better it would be to get better at:
Recording the numbers
How to hold a meeting
Giving a presentation
Recording minutes
Short-cutting membership registration
Canteen management
How to attract and retain volunteers
How to raise money
Recruiting sponsors
But for most of us we need to wing it. We stumble over the same hurdles as the person before us. Paying for tools to make your job, and the job of the person that comes after you is something worth doing and will allow you to recruit and retain volunteers around you.

Earlier this week, we reported on some details and photos of the one-off Leica camera designed by Apple's Jony Ive and Marc Newson for the Product(RED) campaign. Leica originally shared some interesting tidbits about the functionality and development process of the camera, but now, Vanity Fair has published an extensive interview with Ive and Newson about the process. The report provides an interesting look into Apple PR's process of organizing interviews of its executives: Read more

Microsoft's lost decade, chronicled
In a lengthy piece, titled "Microsoft's Lost Decade", Kurt Eichenwald of Vanity Fair profiled CEO Steve Ballmer and his role in the company's steadily decreasing dominance. The piece includes interviews with current and past executives of the company, thousands of internal docs and legal records, and, not surprisingly, Apple's role in the decline of Microsoft makes up a large part of the story:
Truly, for senior management, the problems didn't make sense. Microsoft had some of the smartest people in the technology business. It had billions of dollars at its disposal, and the ability to throw that money into any project the executives chose… Current and former executives said that, each year, they tried to explain to Microsoft's top executives why the company was struggling in the quality of its innovation compared with Apple… Exhibit A: today the iPhone brings in more revenue than the entirety of Microsoft… One Apple product, something that didn't exist five years ago, has higher sales than everything Microsoft has to offer. More than Windows, Office, Xbox, Bing, Windows Phone, and every other product that Microsoft has created since 1975. In the quarter ended March 31, 2012, iPhone had sales of $22.7 billion; Microsoft Corporation, $17.4 billion.
One anecdote covered in the story comes from emails that circulated around Microsoft following the introduction of Tiger:

i went with several friends to have breakfast, when we just sat down, immediately a waiter came over to our table to ask us if we want orange juice, sure why not, and then some coffee, when i started looking at the menu, i discovered that this "freshly squeezed" orange juice costs 9 dollars, and the orange juice was in a big jug waiting to pour to any customer's glass, how fresh could that be, and almost every table has someone drinking the juice, i just don't think this is a good practice for the waiter to kind of force customers to order the juice, well not really force, but they didn't have time to think what else they want, and later found out that this costs 9 dollars, i just don't think this is a good practice for a restaurant. the food was only ok and the coffee tastes like water with bitter taste, and no service at all.
Posted by anonymous on 09/01/2009
took a client here and will never be back. coffee has grounds in it, waiter disappeared for 30 minutes at a time, toast was cold...all that and $23 omelets and $9 OJ...dont these folks know the recession isnt over yet? stay away, New Yorkers!
Posted by anonymous on 08/04/2009
$100 for breakfast -- madness! We ordered 2 entrees, juice and coffee. Everything was delicious but the atmosphere is nothing special. I can thing of 10,000 better places to spend that kind of money in the city.

Burgers are magical and consistent every time.

We were visitng friends in the city a couple of weeks ago and they took us here on our first day (Friday morning around 11am). We did not have a reservation, but were seated right away. Everyone shared the fruit served in a melon bowl- it was a beautiful work of art, so I felt bad digging in! Each of us ordered one of their HUGE omelettes and it was delicious. I can't speak for the other items on the menu, but if you have a sweet tooth, I think you'll be pleased with Norma's pancakes or french toast. It is a little pricey, but you get a ton of food (I wasn't hungry again until late that night), and it's a fun place!
Posted by Anonymous on 08/01/2008
Consistently good and one of the best places for breakfast in Manhattan, if you're willing to overlook the prices. The tourist have found the place and it's pretty difficult to get a table there now, but that's not their fault.
I'll start by saying don't go here unless you're prepared to spend some $ on brunch, but if you are it will be delicious. I am usually an omelet person for breakfast but thier sweet picks looked too good to pass up. I had the crunchy french toast, which was delicious and the table's favorite. My favorite, however, was my friend's bana and macadamia nut pancakes, which were huge asnd full of bananas and simply amazing. I will need to try their omelet and frittata next time I am there, but I was not a fan of my best friend's huevos rancheros, too much cheese and not enough flavor. My other fiend's breakfast quesadilla was yummy, he loved it, but I thought their omeletes, which I did not get to try, looked amazing. Also, if you're going to get the orange juice be prepared to drink lots to get your money's worth or maybe split one with a friend. The smoothies are good, coffee was average despite the french press. The presentations are great, a girl at a nearby table got the chocolate french toast which looked like a huge piece of cake with strawberries...can't go wrong there.

9:30 AM EDT, October 28, 2013
LONDON -- AMC Networks has inked a deal to acquire Chellomedia, the international content division of Liberty Global, for â¬750 million ($1.035 billion). The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2014.
The acquisition gives AMC access to an extensive array of TV channels that are distributed to more than 390 million households in 138 countries, allowing AMC to distribute programming from AMC, IFC, Sundance Channel and WE tv across a far bigger global footprint. The channels span a range of genres, including movie and entertainment networks.
AMC already owns an international programming biz, AMC/Sundance Channel Global, which has grown rapidly over the past five years.
"Chellomedia has developed a remarkable portfolio of popular channels that reach hundreds of millions around the world. As AMC Networks has expanded internationally, we have had a great desire to do something we consider fundamentally strategic, which is to take our content and put it on channels we own," said Josh Sapan, president and CEO of AMC Networks.
"This acquisition allows us to secure a large, global platform on which to distribute our increasingly successful original programming through a collection of strong, well-established and well-managed assets worldwide.
"Together, we can grow these assets and make them even more popular and valuable around the world."
Chellomedia's prexy, Niall Curran, said, "AMC Networks are content professionals with an excellent creative and business track record. They are highly enthusiastic about the business we have built at Chellomedia and are ambitious to develop it further, making AMC Networks a great owner and partner for Chello's next phase of growth."
The agreement includes the acquisition of Chellomedia's operating businesses including: Chello Central Europe, Chello Latin America, Chello Multicanal, Chello Zone, the ad sales unit Atmedia and the broadcast solutions unit Chello DMC.

Neurowolf: Just Tweet Jeff Davis About Sterek!
Only12 out of360tweets were about Sterek.
I see quite a large number of posts saying "Omg don't harass him". And I agree! DO NOT HARASS HIM. However, Jeff himself made it very clear that Sterek was on the table. But this is a 'risky' move of sorts. Believe it or not, he needs to be made aware of the support.
We are brilliant at showing our support ON TUMBLR. Outside of tumblr we generally tend to not wander. Despite our numbers being… way… way… WAY larger than one might guess (And the support from other fandoms completely removed from Teen Wolf for Sterek to happen is certainly there!)… we don't push outside of tumblr very often.
The user generek went to Jeff Davis twitter (keeps tabs on it regularily) and found very interesting statistics.
Jeff Davis recieved recently ~ 30 tweets an hour over the time span of 12 hours. Resulting in 360 tweets total.
Jeff Davis isn't being "bombarded" with support, in fact the exact opposite… there are very vocal people shipping the abomination "Sterica" and tweeting him.
Example (this very inflammatory tweet):
So how about we actually show Jeff Davis the support for this… "Gay non-sense relationship." (How homophobic isthat?)
Am I saying spam him with "STEREK LOL STEREK MANG PLZ"? No…
But saying something like this would be more than ample and fine! And certainlyNOTharassment:
"Hello Jeff Davis, I really love your show and appreciate all the time and care you give us as your fandom. I'm really hoping that there is a possibility for Sterek to happen. Best of luck shooting season 3!"
Even just saying something like this would be short,sweet and appropriate!:
"I really hope Sterek becomes a reality."
We will NOT get Sterek if we do not give him our support, it is a bold move on his part in our very heteronormative society. We need to actively start to push out our fandom from tumblr and join together to make this happen.
Sterek isn't just Teen Wolf, if Sterek happens then it will pave the way for new "ships" to become canon, we're however the fortunate first fandom to get this chance… We have the chance to make it so that our children don't live in a society where "ew gay couples on tv" is even uttered! We can make history on this show, displaying a gay couple that isn't flamboyant, that doesn't wear pink and is more true-to-life than what Glee displays. We have this amazing opportunity…
Visibility and Representation: if you want visibility in your media, in your culture, in the things you love, you have to be visible yourself.
Be polite, be thoughtful, be honest, be real. Ya'll are 98% honestly lovely people, don't be afraid of showing Jeff Davis this.
Don't be afraid of wanting nice things.
Don't be like that fanfic where the pair pines after each other for TEN FUCKING YEARS because they can't learn communication skills in a shorter amount of time. That's an utter waste and terribly tragic, and ya'll are better than that, right? Right. How do you know that Jeff Davis isn't waiting there with baited breath and open arms if you don't even try?
Yeah, we might be reading him wrong, but what if we're reading him right? What if all he's waiting for is enough acknowledgement from the fans, and he's already put himself 'out there' as far as he's able, given his own limitations?
What. If.
Maybe now people will stop being assholes and telling everyone to shut up.
It's all about being polite, respectful, and tasteful. No one here was raised in a barn so just don't act like it and everybody wins.
Showing support for both Sterek and the show in general is a better tactic then just Sterek, I think he's more receptive to that. Make sure he knows we love him no matter what.

Mike Weiss (Chris Evans) is a talented young Houston lawyer and a functioning drug addict. Paul Danziger (co-director Mark Kassen), his longtime friend and partner, is the straightlaced and responsible yin to Mike's yang.
Their mom-and-pop personal-injury law firm is getting by, but things really get interesting when they decide to take on a case involving Vicky (Vinessa Shaw), a local ER nurse, who is pricked by a contaminated needle on the job.
As Weiss and Danziger dig deeper into the case, a health care and pharmaceutical conspiracy teeters on exposure and heavyweight attorneys move in on the defense. Out of their league but invested in their own principles, the mounting pressure of the case pushes the two underdog lawyers and their business to the breaking point.

'Dorky' Billy Graham Film on DVD in March
Evangelist's son, Franklin, provided that assessment of the movie that bombed in theaters
bombed at the box office and was panned by critics and even by his own son, Franklin, who apparently told his sister the movie was "dorky."
Despite those shortcomings, filmmakers will look to recoup some of their losses through DVD sales when the movie hits the video shelves on March 16. "This film will make you thankful for the life of Billy Graham," the Dove Foundation said in a press release. Actually, Graham's preaching made me thankful for his life, but that's another story. The DVD can be purchased here.

This cupcake is without a doubt most men's favorite. You can see the smile as soon as they spot that crisp bacon strip resting on top of the golden maple frosting. It's the wonderful combination of salty and sweet together. We describe it as the flavor you get when bacon mingles with syrup while eating pancakes. We suggest about half a slice on each cupcake, but feel free to add as much as you want.
Oxmoor House SEPTEMBER 2011
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat butter and sugar at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating until blended after each addition. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt; add to butter mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Beat at low speed until blended after each addition. Stir in vanilla.
Place paper baking cups in 2 (12-cup) muffin pans, and coat with cooking spray; spoon batter into cups, filling two-thirds full. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire racks 10 minutes; remove from pans to wire racks, and cool completely.
To prepare frosting, melt butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Stir in evaporated milk, baking soda, and light corn syrup; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, and let cool. Transfer caramel mixture to a large bowl. Gradually add powdered sugar to caramel mixture; beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy. Stir in maple flavoring. Beat at high speed 2 minutes or until creamy. Icing firms up quickly, so use immediately. Makes 3 cups.
Frost each cupcake with Maple Frosting using metal tip no. 2D. Top each with bacon.
The experts at Dreamcakes say that it's the baking soda in the frosting helps prevent the caramel from becoming grainy.

January, 2008, a webcast series premiered under the direction of Todd Wolfe, Terry Campbell and Scott Gruenwald, three paranormal investigators who have in their possession; an 80 year old mansion. The Haunted Wolfe Manor Live drew investigators from around the country to participate in the uniquely televised weekly event.
This DVD portrays the Mansion as envisioned by Todd Wolfe, who is the current owner of the site and plans to convert it into a hotel. Along with Scott Gruenwald and Terry Campbell, they attempt to attract the attention of the Manson's permanent tenants. But who is to say that these three ghost hunters are welcomed by the spirits who are uneager to have guests on their terrain. Using tactics that are uncommon and unsafe for many paranormal investigators, they attempt to bring out the spirits of the Wolfe Manor. Todd Wolfe says he is not afraid of the spirits in his mansion, and he is out to prove the Wolfe Manor's reputation as one of the world's most haunted locations.
Full episodes are broadcast every Saturday at 7PM PST at www.wolfemanorhotel.com.

|The Best of The Haunted Wolfe Manor Live CD 1
The Wolfe Manor was originally built in 1922 as a private residence. It was easily the most opulent mansion in Clovis at the time, complete with a swimming pool in the basement and a ball room on the fourth floor. The original owner, Anthony Andriotti was bankrupted due to the enormous cost to build it and subsequently lost the house a couple of years later.
The Mansion was purchased in 1935 and became the Hazelwood Sanitarium, treating patients with terminal illnesses (TB, etc). It was sold again in 1942 and became the Clovis Avenue Sanitarium. It was licensed to treat mental illness by the State Board of Mental Hygiene.
Interviews with ex staff and retired Clovis police officers indicate that it seemed there were one or more deaths at the Sanitarium every day. Many ex employees have come forward to confess quitting soon after they were hired due to the excessive amount of deaths and mal- treatment at the Manor. Many have also reported supernatural occurrences as well, contributing to their decision to leave.
Wolfe Manor has become a landmark paranormal location in the Western United States and attracts researchers from all over the nation. People have experienced contact with the unknown by being physically touched, collecting EVP recordings (easily hundreds), photographic and video evidence, witnessing disembodied voices and actually seeing full blown apparitions.
