Psychological Research on Martial Artists
A close friend recently co-published this article on sports psychology research, specifically addressing female athletes. Check it out!
The part I found most interesting/key:
"The differentiation of topics and research questions when it comes to the study of women vs. men reflect a gender bias which seems to be ingrained in sport psychology studies. This gender bias, in conjunction with a lack of gender/social theory underpinnings of the analyses of gender differences or similarities, is very problematic and has negative implications on how female athletes are constituted. Moreover, by comparing female competitive martial artists with female non-athletes or with male martial artists, many of the sport psychology studies cited above reinforce the stereotypes which suggest that female martial art athletes are somehow different from the so-called "normal" women, such as claims that certain characteristics are particular to women who seek out physical activities as martial arts, that elite martial artists develop "masculine" traits, or that female martial artists may be more prone to accept violent conflict resolutions in contrast to other women. Additionally, some studies reinforce the gender stereotypes that female martial art athletes are somehow "weaker" than their male counterparts, or that women's perceptions of high chance in sporting success is a much rarer phenomenon than in the case of men.
Approaches of this kind carry various limitations and fail to give insights into women's experiences, instead presenting female martial artists as a homogeneous group with similar personality characteristics and motives and reinforcing the social constitution of female martial artists as essentially different from male athletes or from female non-athletes."

Weekend days are notorious for getting away from us too fast. Sometimes, as a mom, I am so exhausted from the week past that I end up wanting just to sleep all morning, keep the kids in front of the TV and veg.
Then, on Sunday, most typically, I wake up with the weight of the week on my chest. It's the day for Costco, Whole Foods, cleaning, lunch packing and errand running. Where is the family time? We are lucky if we get an hour at the local park.
This is not what the weekends are made for. We spend all week apart, so why not come together on the weekends and make them all about family? There are a lot of great ways to make the weekends count. I, for one, plan to try to do at least one really fun thing per weekend from now on.
Here are five ways to change it all up:
Do a kid's choice day: Each day of the weekend, give over to one kid. They get to pick EVERYTHING. If that means Snickers for breakfast, so be it. If that means you spend all day on roller coasters and laughing until you puke, then have a blast doing it. Kids feel empowered and you all have more fun. It's a major win all around!
Do Shabbat dinner even if you are not Jewish: I am not a religious Jewish person, but I do enjoy lighting candles and sitting down sans phone or Internet on Friday nights. It is a great way to regroup form the week and just be a family.
Have a "no power" day: Buh-bye phones, Internet, TV and electronics. Spend a day as a family with no electronics or even electricity. Sometimes "blackouts" are good for the whole family (though not weeklong ones, SANDY!).
Do a family field day: OK, so it's a LITTLE Brady Bunch. But a family field day can also be a blast if you want it to be. Break out the old potato sacks. Get sweaty and laugh a lot.
Family slumber party: This is one of my favorite things to do. Pop some popcorn, get some age appropriate scary movies and camp out in the living room (or in the backyard!) Make microwave s'mores and sleep in a big pile.
What do you do to shake up weekends?
I love to have family fun time on the weekends; whether it's going to the zoo or to the library we just enjoy the quality time together.
we have Saturdays together
We always have family focused weekends. We go hiking, biking and nature walks.
I might just have to do the Family Slumber Party sometime when my husband is out of town, not sure he would be up for something like that, lol!
We always take one Saturday a month and do a family surprise- just an outing or some activity that we do as a family. The kids seem to love this tradition. We also do game nights with borad games, read stories together (we are working through Oliver Twist) and do date nights with each child- we really want to focus on growing close as a family above everything else.
We are always out doing something fun as a family, on the weekends.
love the no power and family slumber party day! Will try this weekend
We're always out and about.
great tips...we like finding events and festivals to go to when we can
Love all of these ideas!

Morrow residents have a difficult decision to make come March 16, as all three candidates vying to fill the unexpired term of former City Councilman Charles Sorrow have served the city well.
"My decision to run is born from my commitment to the City of Morrow, and from my desire to bring fresh ideas to the table, facilitate a strong quality of life for my neighbors and make an impact on the city's continued development," says 15-year resident Jeanell Bridges. Along with working at the Tourist Center, she's worked for the Morrow Downtown Development Authority as a Property Manager and Annexation Clerk, serves on the Urban Redevelopment Board, attends council meetings and volunteers regularly citywide in various capacities. "I trust that my commitment to Morrow is evident through my citizenship, my constant support of the city and ways through which I serve," adds Bridges. "I'm totally committed to the city and to her citizens." Contact: firstname.lastname@example.com or 404.424.6567.
Forty-year resident James Duckworth is an active volunteer in city programs, as well as leader of Morrow's CERT program and P.R.O.U.D., a neighborhood watch and improvement program. "I have rarely missed a city council meeting and am sometimes disappointed at how little information we get from council meetings. I would like to see a better flow of information from city government to citizens. I believe I could help improve the communication gap by encouraging citizens to become more interested in our government and by improving our city website," says Duckworth. "I am also disturbed by the amount of commercial property the city owns. While I realize this would not be a good time to sell, I feel that should be part of our future plans. I think putting the property in private hands would be beneficial to the city by getting it back on the tax roll, and would encourage business interests to take a closer look at Morrow as a viable opportunity to succeed." Contact: email@example.com.
After working as the city's longest running manager for 11½ years and taking over its economic development authority, John Lampl resigned in order to run for city council (again) after having been elected Morrow's youngest city councilman at age 25 and serving two terms (1991-1998). "Residential foreclosures are having major impacts on our property values. Economic development projects need to continue because we're providing small business opportunities, and 75% of all jobs are created by independent businesses. We have plans, but they need to be implemented in a timely fashion," says Lampl. "I have tremendous energy and vision, and want to see what we've done here continue and take it to the next level." Contact: firstname.lastname@example.com or 678.360.5999.
Early voting has already begun at the Morrow Municipal Complex (1500 Morrow Road; 770.961.4002) during regular business hours through Friday, March 12, and Election Day is March 16.

I can't vote in Morrow but good luck to the winner. You'll need it! The Morrow business district has reputation of being plagued by crime. It will take an engaged and united city council to turn public perception.
March 8th, 2010
11:49 am
Jeanell Bridges will be the first woman to sit on the City Council in 30 years. She gets my vote and I am a man. Women of Morrow should vote in record numbers since they are the majority in the City of Morrow. It is past time for a woman in City Hall.

Has an American Black or any other minority ever been on the Morrow City Council ?
Morrow has a diverse community that includes, Asians, American Blacks & American Whites, Hispanic/Latino and Indian.
American Blacks constitute the largest voting population followed by American Whites, Asians, Hispanic and Latinos.
The businesses in Morrow are primarily run by Asians and Indians. They do not hire American Blacks or American Whites. Check out the businesses yourself and you will verify this. They do not put any money back into the city of Morrow. They do not support our schools or churches. I believe this has impacted on the local economy in the city. The city needs to be UPSCALED and small business owner friendly. We need more American businesses City Council members!

The current Morrow City Council should be praised for their leadership in redeveloping the city. Olde Towne Morrow and Morrow Center are two great additions. Street improvements have improved general appearance of Morrow. What Morrow really needs is more high-quality housing and businesses.
March 8th, 2010
8:13 pm
Double Action,
All the businesses you speak of are not small businesses. We need small businesses in Morrow that will hire Americans. Small businesses are the economic engines of any community. Get my point. Instead of trying to challenge my statement, just receive and move on.

How is that Olde Town Morrow project coming along? Drive by it on the way home from work each afternoon, but see no activity. Is the project complete? Whoever wins the council seat has some explaining to do about that boondoggle of a project.

How does double action go from small businesses to telling people where to get a job. Obviously does not get the point. Seems to have confusion about people and issues. Always on the attack. Give it a break please.

Who cares who wins! They're all run by the plutocrats; none have any business sense! All the candidates broke and do what money tells them. Up with more strip mall, like the so-called "Mall Project". MHS have only won 1 football game in three years. The entire town need to be revamped!

Tyme4ChangeClayCo asked, who's is charge? More police firings, transfers, 'management decisions', demotions, shift changes…Whose reallly in control over there? Why all the drama with CCPD NOW?
Here's your "answer"! the plutocrats, the same ones that sold your children accreditation. However, you have a dummy in Clayton that say, "i like to watch"!

Looks like Clayton has found another way to start the county in an upward forward way. Condemning substandard housing. That is good news.

Strange that some one mentioned Morrow High School's dim football record as a reason to "revamp" the city. Only parts of the city that are east of the railroad tracks along Jonesboro Road go to Morrow anyway; the westside of Morrow is districted to Forest Park High. Forest Park has a similar losing record though. Not to long ago both were region power houses; maybe both programs can have an upswing. Babb Middle that feeds into Forest Park had an undefeated season. As a life long Morrow resident I can say Morrow is much more well kept than the surrounding municipalities of Forest Park and Lake City and a million times better maintained than adjacent parts of unincorporated Clayton County. Who ever gets elected, keep up the good work.

I have lived here for 15 years and ever time I went to city hall to find out about elections I was put off one way or another. My work schedule does not allow me to attend the council meetings. I received a letter in the mail today from Ms. Jeanell Bridges that gave me more information than I have ever received. She has my family's vote.

Where is Bob Hartley?
March 12th, 2010
3:14 pm
Morrow's newest city council member will be elected next week. All residents who are registered voters, please go to the polls if you didn't cast your ballot in the early voting. We need to elect someone who will continue with Morrow's economic redevelopment and will work to bring in new housing. Morrow could also use an active adult (55 and over) housing development.
Day of election – March 16, 2010. Hours: 7:00am to 7:00pm at Morrow City Hall Complex.
March 13th, 2010
7:27 am
I agree, Morrow needs more new housing and a senior citizens development would be a welcomed addition. The economic redevelopment the city is doing must continue. Olde Towne Morrow is a great addition and is hosting a St. Patrick's Day Festival from 5-9 pm on Wed., March 17. If you haven't visited Olde Towne, this would be a great time to do so.

American Business in Morrow:
Yes, Morrow has had a minority council member. Tom LaPorte, of Puerto Rican decent, was the first Hispanic elected to office in Morrow and Clayton County (1999). He also served on the Planning and Zoning Board before joining the council.

On the campaign trail for Jeanell this morning my car was impounded. The following is an account of what happened.
* I was putting up Jeanell Bridges signs according to city code on Lake Harbin and as approved by the owner of the establishment
* Upon finishing I preceded down Lake Harbin to Morrow Road to my home 1 block away
* I noticed the officer in the turning lane on to Jonesboro heading south in my mirror.
* He turned on his flashing light and instructed, "driver in the blue cavalier to pull over into the turning lane (which was in front of him) turn left and pull into BP station"
* I followed the officers instructions and once he approached me I asked, why did you stop me sir?
* He replied that he ran my plates because he was following up on a stolen car report and as a result saw that I had no insurance.
* I informed him that my insurance had just been reinstated on ,Monday, March 8, 2010 and I attempted to show him the print out of my insurance with policy information
* He said that did not matter because according to his computer I was uninsured and that was what he had to go by, not my documentation,
* He told me that he would cite me and impound my car. I tried showing him my insurance documentation again and he refused and told me to get out of the car
* I told him I live right around the corner couldn't I just take my car home.
* He said no and went on to tell me that I must get a letter from the insurance company and so on to get my car back.
* I took pictures at the scene, because I truly felt that I was being harassed and targeted. (Earlier in the week when I was putting up signs, another police hollered at me out his window, "Do you have a permit to put up that sign")
* As I was taking the pictures, the officer said, I do not know what your agenda is but, I did not stop you because of the sign on your car, I do not even live here. (Keep in mind I never accused the officer of anything. I complied respectfully).
* The officer went on to tell me, not to put the picture on the internet, because he has a family. ( I was dumbfounded by that remark).
* I contacted my aunt who came to retrieve me and my belongings. A campaign volunteer drove up at the time to assist us.
* We all went directly back on the campaign trail for Jeanell after they towed my car!
There is truly something wrong here.
March 14th, 2010
7:43 am
The officer was right! If your car is not listed as insured in the state database, you are not legal to drive the vehicle.
March 14th, 2010
11:04 am
Was LaPorte "elected" or "appointed"? Did he ever receive a vote? Porte Rican decent? Keep stretchin' for minority status. He also moved away from Morrow and remained on the council. That is not legal. That secret was kept to keep control of the council so they could choose the next member instead of letting the citizens elect one. That old city manager. When will somebody investigate the illegal practices?? Hello?? AJC??? WSB?? Anybody paying attention?
March 15th, 2010
5:55 am
DoubleAction, I was referring to a senior citizens HOUSING community, designed specifically for those 55-and-over. Like those on Walt Spephens and Wright's Walk. I wasn't talking about a senior citizens center. Sorry about the confusion. There are a number of area seniors who would like to live independently in a neighborhood with those in their age bracket.
March 15th, 2010

John has far more expertise in Morrow's progress, public safety, QUALITY DEVELOPMENT, etc. He has done so much for the city. Not only that, but John and the Council keep the city looking good, over all. (Poor Forest used be pretty and a nice place, but no more.) I pray that John wins tomorrow. From what I've heard, Jeanell just wants a "black" foot in the door so that Morrow can be taken over. Plus I know her and don't trust her. Another Riverdale we don't need either.
March 15th, 2010
2:09 pm
John was a tyrant. He ruled by fear and intimadation. Good ridance. There are lots of people who could do a better job. Do not be tricked by a good smile.
March 15th, 2010
4:05 pm
I thought that most of Morrow was for senior citizens anyway. I know that the Skylark subdivision at the base of Phillips Drive is overwelmingly 55 plus. The joke has been for years that Morrow was for "old folks and Asians"; why does not someone of Asian descent run for council. It seems that their large community truly does not have a voice. That would be true diversity on the City Council that reflects our community. It is too late for anyone to run now, but there is always next time! For now, I guess ole Lampl will get my vote. He is not perfect (none of the candidates are) but I do feel like he is a big part of the reason that Morrow is still so nice. Morrow almost seems an island of well-kept tranquility amid the stormy seas of Clayton County yuck. Also, if I were a resident of the Lake Spivey area I would hurry and incorporate before the unincorporated Clayton County yucky run-down neighborhood disease gets to you.
March 15th, 2010
5:23 pm
I voted for LaPorte twice. I met his family. They are as Rican as you get. My wife and his were friends. We know she moved from Morrow, but he rented a place for more than a year before he had to give it up to be with his family.
I agree with Mr. D. I think Lampl will get my vote in the morning. He can be a pill, but he really knows Morrow and he made all the plans for parks and beautification. Property values are a real issue in this economy, much more than heresy or idle rumors.
March 15th, 2010
6:53 pm
Lampl is a loose cannon. One of these days his shading dealings will come to light. He is not what he appears. Be very affraid.

Old timer, New to politics are you?
March 16th, 2010

Lampl has the experience to do the best job. Double Action, please think before posting here- you have your own blog on which to post your rants which make no sense.

ex-Chief Turner cleared of wrong-doing. Does this mean he gets his old job back? Now it is proven this was nothing but a witch-hunt by the Chairman and the 3 – make that 4 stooges.

Been around a very long time….Lampll's experience is akin to the Chicago thug..though he will win..he has the money…people hate him though…

Who the hell won?

According to That Other Paper, Lampl won.

Old timer, you mean like that "Chicago thug" that's currently in the White House? John Lample is the only reason that Morrow doesn't look like Rierdale,Jonebuh and the rest of the "Bankhead hwy" cities that make up the rest of Clayton county. You should be thankful that this young man even wants to Live in Clayton county, much less try and preserve it.

Rudiments: Black Suits
Dave Hill explains how and when to wear a black suit, from our latest episode. You can watch the whole episode (please do!) right here.
Elegance: Put This On Season Two, Episode Five
Put This On, a web series about dressing like a grownup, visits Milan, a world fashion capital.
In this episode, our director Benjamin Ahr Harrison visits Biella, north of the city, to talk with Luciano Barbera. Barbera isn't just one of the world's most elegant men, he's also the leader of Carlo Barbera, one of the finest fabric mills in existence.
For our PTO Place segment, we talk with the owner of G. Lorenzi. It started as a cutlery shop, and has become a spectacular tribute to the finest small accessories imaginable. It's home to a visually stunning spectrum of knives, scissors, shaving goods, toothbrushes, combs, shoehorns and other tiny necessities.
In PTO Man, we visit Salvatore Battello, the elegant owner of W-D Man. Before he started his line, he ran one of the last companies in the world that worked with shagreen - the beautiful skin of sharks and rays. Battello tells us about his passion for vintage fabric, and his definition of elegance.
Plus Jesse answers the question "what color shoes go with the suit?" and Dave Hill offers a rudiment on the topic of socks.
This is the fifth episode in our six-episode second season. In this season, we visit the three greatest men's style cities in the world, as chosen by our readers - New York, Milan and London.
This episode was supported by our viewers.

Excerpted from S2E3 of Put This On: "(New) Traditions"
Dave Hill offers thoughts on when you should and should not wear sports sunglasses.
Put This On Season Two, Episode 2: Eclecticism
Put This On, a web series about dressing like a grownup, visits New York City, where eclectic style is a way of life.
We go thrifting with Josh and Trav from the blog Street Etiquette. They're known for their thrift-store eyes and their unique editorials. We drop some shopping and alteration knowledge and have a friendly competition: who can pick up the coolest stuff in three shops and two hours?
Visit Jay Kos, the eclectic boutique that fuses traditional style with a decidedly non-traditional palette. It's a favorite of modern dandies because of Jay's bold color sense and wild material choices. Here you can find traditionally-made trousers in green python or a fine Italian sportcoat rendered in a blown-up flannel shirting pattern.
Meet Lewis Lapham, the found of Lapham's Quarterly and longtime editor of Harper's Magazine. Lapham discusses why fine clothes suit the humble journalist, and compares a coat and tie to the pair of gold coins Flaubert carried in his pocket - they lend the bearer a sense of weight.
In our How It's Made segment, we learn what's inside your jacket. Tailor Leonard Logsdail tears open a few coats to show us their guts and compares the construction of pieces at a variety of price points.
Plus, the return of Rudiments with new host Dave Hill. Dave explains that a coat isn't finished until it has been altered by a tailor.

PTO Rudiments: Alterations
"A suit should look good off the rack, then you should have it altered to look great. Budget $100, and about two weeks, because the transformation isn't free, or instantaneous." - Dave Hill
When I'm interviewed about men's style and Put This On, I'm almost invariably asked "what are the fashion mistakes you see men make every day?" or "what is the most basic style knowledge men often don't have?"
That's the kind of stuff I usually leave off this blog. After all: you're discerning and tasteful! But every time I see some incredibly basic principle violated, I cringe. So: for the benefit of your slovenly coworker our your teenage cousin or your uncle who's never had a job, I wrote this. Forward it to them. Anonymously, if you must.
Below are twenty-five pieces of vital information that every man over 14 in the Western world should know. Every man. No excuses. Seriously. Seriously.
If you see someone violating one of these basic principles, feel free to send them our way. We'll straighten them out.
Q and Answer: Release The Vents
Joel writes: Recently my girlfriend tried to tell me that the little pieces of thread that hold the flaps on the back of my blazers and sport coats together needed to be cut. I'm skeptical. What's your take?
Never listen to your girlfriend on matters sartorial. What do girlfriends know about men's clothes? They are ladies.
That said, do listen to us. Your girlfriend is right. The purpose of the vents in the back of the suit is to allow the "flaps" to move independently of each other. That little bit of thread is only there to keep the presentation clean on the rack. (You should also take the tag off the sleeve and open up the pockets.)

Mixed Messages for NSA
Utah lawmakers are sending mixed messages to the National Security Agency, which runs a massive data-storage warehouse outside of Salt Lake City. One proposal is calling for legislators not to collect utility taxes from the center. Meanwhile, another lawmaker wants to cut off water to the center, which uses more than 1 million gallons daily to cool its computer processers.

Last August, Google set a search query suggestion feature as default on its homepage. But like many Google features, it was rolled out to the U.S. only.
Now, Google Suggest is going abroad. It's available to 155 domains in 51 languages.
Adjusting search suggestions for different languages and regions involves more than simply adding a feature. You have to understand locations and interest. For example, a search in the UK that begins with "liv" is probably headed for a query related to "Liverpool," while in the US it would be for one of the most vital organs in the human body.

Mercedes C-Class, BMW 3-Series top most stolen luxury cars
Among luxury cars, the compact German models were favorites of thieves from 2009 to 2012.
Car thieves must see them in exactly the same way, as the two compact German models have been the most stolen luxury cars in America, according to a new report from the National Insurance Crime Bureau. The nonprofit group, which collects theft data for insurance companies, ranked the 1994 Honda Accord and 1998 Honda Civic as the most stolen car models in the country, spots these low-cost models take nearly every year.
Among the 4,384 luxury cars reported stolen from 2009 to 2012, 485 were late-model C-Class cars and an additional 471 were 3-Series. The Infiniti G wasn't far behind at 405 cars. The NICB looked at stolen vehicle reports with valid vehicle identification numbers (VINs) sent to insurance companies for model years 2010-2012.
Two other Mercedes models, the E-Class and S-Class, ranked fourth and last on the NICB's top 10 list of stolen luxury cars. The BMW 5-Series ranked sixth. Other big theft targets included the Cadillac CTS, Lincoln MKZ, Acura TSX and the Lexus IS. California racked up nearly a quarter of all thefts, followed by Florida, New York and New Jersey. But among metro areas, the New York, northern New Jersey and Long Island region recorded the highest number of luxury car thefts -- about 60 percent higher than the Los Angeles, Long Beach and Santa Ana region -- and the most stolen cars that were never found.
- West Coast cities see spike in car thefts
- 10 metro areas with the most car thefts
- Report: Escape, Tahoe are most stolen late-model SUVs
Nearly 20,000 late-model SUVs and crossovers were stolen in the United States from 2008 to the first half of 2012. Non-luxury brands such as the Ford Escape and Chevrolet Tahoe were the most stolen, according to the NICB. And despite New York and New Jersey getting a bad rap, another recent NICB study based on population and FBI reports showed that California and Washington have the highest per-capita auto theft rates in the country.
We'd say garage your vehicles and lock your doors, but in reality, if someone really wants your car, they're just going to take it.
[Source: NICB]
I think I've seen a new article each week for the last few weeks that list a different car each time to be the top vehicle of choice for thieves. I think the last article was saying that the Ford F series trucks were beating out the used to be top of the stolen list's Escalade.
Let's face it. It doesn't matter what type of car it is unless you're a crook running a black market business looking for certain parts for your customers. Most thieves just see a car, know they want it, and take it or at least try to take it.
Take my car ....Please!
Not having a fat wallet leaves me out of any equation about wondering if my slick Benz or Bimmer is going to be heisted from the parking lot of some trendy store. I have a 14 year old sled, and virtually nothing at all works on it anymore, including three of the windows, the sunroof, A/C, ABS brakes, CD player and a holy host of other gadgets and attachments. Additionally, if it weren't for the 100 yards of duct tape on the seats, there wouldn't even be an interior. I've had dreams where I leave the car parked along a busy street, unlocked, with the keys in the ignition... hoping that some poor schlub would somehow steal this barge.... and then I wake up to the horrible reality that it's still in my driveway.
Peace to all ~
Simple solution? Just buy and learn to drive a car with a manual 6 speed transmission.
Most of the testosterone and adrenalin geniuses won't bother with them.
You'll have the time of your life mastering shifting gears at redline.
Of course when your insurance company downloads your cars computer Rev limit bump log they'll increase your premiums. Happy happy happy.
Stealing cars can net big bucks. Most chop shops will hand you anywhere from $500-$2000 a vehicle. Most car thieves will steal 1-4 cars a night. So I am assuming that chop shops are paying $500 per 3 series and $1000 per 7 series. $500-5000 for a nights work?
I always disable my vehicles. I have never, nor will I ever have a car stolen. From battery disconnect switches, to ignition disable, coil disable etc. Many ways to disable a car. Very few car thieves will use a truck to steal a car. they would rather just jump in and go, If it takes them three minutes or more, they wont do it. Also, too many reality shows have taught people how to steal cars. It is unbelievable what you can learn on daytime TV, prompting new car thief recruits
People need to drive boring cars to keep them from being stolen. I had a Volvo S70 four door sedan, drove it for years, and no one ever looked at it.
This was the Phoenix Metro area 1998-2004. Supposedly, the highest point of departure for fenced Mexican imports.
I never worried a day. Fantastic car, too.
If they punished them the right way .... they won't steal them. They changed the law calling a car theft " a unauthorized use a vehicle" ... in other words ... they just simply forgot to ask permission. TRUE ! Remember the good ol days when they hung horse thiefs. The easier we are on crime the more we have.
Its not cool that they didn't do a good job of stressing which year models are being stolen. If they are talking about older model C-Class and 3-Series cars...that's important to know. I own a 2012 C-Class and I read this because I needed to know if I should be concerned. For example reading other similar but more informative articles we know that if you bought your car after 2009 you are less likely to make this list. Anyone who recently bought one of these vehicles should not be concerned that they will be a target.
Fact: Most stolen vehicles need a higher age and a lower resale value to be worth stealing. There is not a ton of customers looking for stolen vehicles at around 20k+
Any one with a 2008 or earlier model should consider buying a club or brake lock if they are concerned.
Why are smaller cars so much cheaper to own?

I was hacked about 18 months ago. Logged in to find my 5 highest toons stripped of gold/silver and all the purples/blues sold from my main. Took about 24 hours to get control of the account back. Took about 2 weeks to get a few things back (yea, tier 1 & 2 loot!)...took almost 2 months to get back the blues and most of my gold back. Be polite, be patient, but be persistant.
My guild, The Society on US-Shadowmoon, was good to me after I listened to them try to work on progression for a couple nights. They took up a collection to help me get back on my feet and raiding while the investigation was ongoing. Bought a ton of greens of the AH to be The Green Machine, then the following week went shopping again to be The Blue Light Special. A good guild can be a life-saving support network when you are staring at the naked toon by the mailbox when you log in.

How Much Love Does Kyle Williams Get Around Here?
How Much Love Does Kyle Williams Get Around Here?
New York Giants Superbowl XXI, XXV, XLII, XLVI Champions!!!!!
Kyle Williams would probably have been safer in NYC after that title game than in SF though... at least here he would have been ignored or maybe heckled if someone recognized him. Not like the death threats he got in SF.
Though to be fair, it's not like we're any better... I'm sure most of us wanted to kill Matt Dodge after that fateful punt. It goes with the territory of being a goat...
Fantasy headline quotes:
-Insanity, with "Eye of the Tiger" playing in the background, accumulated the highest point total this week and beat Hakeem Nicks 137.95 - 100.75, overcoming an 18.22-point spread.
-Legend of Seawright Throat-Punches Mediocrity.
-20-page Eli Argument Knocks Out Insanity, Delivers an Early-Season Message
As much love as Trey Junkin gets in SF...
"Everyone has a plan, until they get punched in the mouth."
Why would he get love? He didn't gift us the game! He let the ball hit him and instead of getting it he choose to pretend like it didn't...and he got stripped! We won that game...it wasn't given to us, despite what some may say.
Kinda like asking how much props Jaquain Williams gets on the SF boards for knocking the ball out.
He's a good kid, I'm glad he weathered the storm after that game.

Digital Media Studies
The Digital Media Studies major is an interdisciplinary program joining Art, Communication Arts, and Computer Science. Its purpose is to produce a student that is aesthetically, theoretically, and technologically trained and capable of excellence in the relatively new area of the design, production, and implementation of digital communications media. By placing an emphasis on public relations and media development, the communication arts emphasis is geared toward those interested in critically looking at the way they convey a message. Courses include Interactive Media, Principles of Public Relations, Digital Filmmaking, and Communication Law.
The digital revolution has dramatically changed the way we think, communicate and interact. These new technologies demand new ways of thinking and creating. Union's Digital Media Studies (DMS) is a unique program that will prepare you to become a marketable digital media specialist who can step into a variety of fields and circumstances to provide leadership.

Temperatures felt like spring Monday -- good news for maple syrup producers after last years topsy turvy season.
"This year it's been colder maybe it has been a more normal season we have been spoiled the last few years with alot of warm springs, maybe this year will be a later spring," said Mike Isham, who runs the Isham Family Farm in Williston.
It's a diversified farm and this time of year, it's all about maple. "The farm has been producing maple syrup for five generations," Isham said.
"I think we are seeing a pretty typical Vermont spring," said Tim Wilmot with the Proctor Maple Research Center in Underhill, where technology is developed to help maple producers increase their yield per tap. "People tap earlier nowadays, especially after the past two years, especially last year when everybody was concerned that it was going to start really early and it did and ended really early."
Wilmot said with temperatures in the 80's last March, producers who still use old fashioned taps and buckets did not do as well, but those with newer technology ended up with a decent crop.
Reporter Judy Simpson: You talk about increasing yield per tap is it possible there would be too much syrup?
Tim Wilmot: It's possible. I think people are getting into the industry now and people are jumping in with huge numbers of taps operations in the tens of thousands of taps are appearing all the time, so there is going to be a lot more produced... and marketing has to keep up with that.
Mike Isham produces about 500 gallons of syrup a year which he sells on the farm. Last year he only produced about 50 percent of that due to the warm weather. This year he hopes to come a lot closer to the 500 gallons.

Not necessarily a sterling recommendation. Remember, Huntington's colleague Kissinger lost his war. Hard-headed realism in the cold war led to a huge disaster for American foreign policy.
The Western belief that parliamentary democracy and free markets are suitable for everyone will bring the West into conflict with civilizations—notably, Islam and the Chinese— that think differently.
Not proven. Certainly a subset of Moslems think differently, but as a civilization? The two largest Moslem countries -- Indonesia and India -- hold democracy as an ideal, and practice it as well (at least to some extent in the case of Indonesia).
The Chinese aren't allowed to think, or at least talk, about democracy. The government is trying to allow economic freedom while still keeping their dictatorial political control. Their ultimate success is problematic.
