Fairley Meets Fans, Talks to SuhPosted by on April 29, 2011 – 11:25 pm
First-round draft choice Nick Fairley stopped by the 2011 Detroit Lions Draft Party at the Hard Rock Cafe to meet with fans.
Fairley on his experience at the Detroit Lions Draft Party at Hard Rock Cafe Detroit: "Aww man, it was great. When I walked in, they almost blew the roof off the place. So it's great coming down and getting the support of the fans for the first time."
Fairley also had the opportunity to talk to Defensive Rookie of the Year Ndamukong Suh. Fairley met Suh at the 2011 Super Bowl and is looking forward to playing alongside him.
On having talked to Suh: "I talked to Suh today and he gave me some great advice; I talked to Kyle Vanden Bosch and all of them guys. I'm really just ready to go and I want to pick their brain … They're going to give me some great advice so I can come in as a rookie and know what to do."
On what Suh said to him: "He basically was like, 'Man, you've got be ready to come to work; they're going to push you and try to get the best out of you, but you're going to have fun.' He said that's one thing that they do here is: have fun and work hard. So I'm ready to come here and get things together."

I'm very happy with the first round but after that I am extremley disgusted. Are
you kidding me a receiver in the second,he wasn't even ranked that high in the draft. We could of had Torrey Smith or Greg Little. He only weighs 174lbs.
How do they expect someone that small to survive in this league. Not to mention the fact he came out of a very weak conferance The (WAC). I do like the running back but we we gave up way to much to get him. We gave up a 3rd,4th, and flipped our 5th and 7th round. We have way to many holes to be picking a very small receiver. He didn't even have a good combine.
I am having flash backs of Matt Millen drafts We suck as usual

I would like to Thank Coach Swartz and Martin Mayhew for turning the Lions perennial home for the NFL wannabe retirees, into a new vibrant, aggressive and confident team of spectacular talent. With the addition of Fairley, LeShoure, and Young they have a solid rushing attack and top talent Passing Attack. Please design schemes in which we can protect our franchise QB, Will Heller as the curl back TE who knocks anyone trying to deck Stafford on his ass. Carpenter and Palmer have the tools to start and cover if they play to their abilities. Sign Houston and give Smith a chance, and it could be another "Fearsome Foursome" Lions Defensive Line. Also, how about playing Johnny Cash's "A Boy Named Sue" when the defense comes on or after a Suh Sack. The line goes" My Name is Suh, How do you do, And now You're Gonna Die!"
Yeah, Lets get a bronze statue of Barry Sanders erected in the entranceway of the Ford Field Main Entrance. he was the only player to get a large ovation and cheers at the draft today, even from GB and NY fans! He's the Best of the Best!

Geez, why don't you wait and see these guys play before passing judgement. It makes no sense to criticize before they have had a chance to prove themselves. I agree they weren't ideal selections, but lets see how it plays out.

The thing that is not understood here is that this draft class is the worst in a long time. I like what jim and mayhew did. They went up and grabbed VALUE picks not just people to put in a spot. I see them grabbing tulock in FA and a CB/ OT

Troy seriously?? Have u heard of DeSean Jackson? plus Nate Burleson is getting old and who are our other receivers? He's quick and can be a plus returning on special teams with his speed and on him coming from the WAC didnt he loose all of like 1 game when he was there?! Good pick i believe and I think u might be eating ur word if there is a season this year. Schwartz and company know what they are doing

I agree completely, Troy. I can't wrap my brain around the fact that we chose a Wide-Out in the 2nd round!!!!! I don't beleive that he will be able to compete at this level, in that position. My only hope is that they are planning on moving him to a Corner/Returner…we'll see. As far as Leshoure, I am satisfied with his skills and potential. I agree that we gave up too much to get him. I hope it doesn't come back to bite us. Not much to say about Fairley. He's the complete package. I think with his work ethic and Suh's tutoring, we'll have a VERY strong defensive line. Looking forward to pre-season and seeing how he performs.

Troy, you have got to be kidding. Suck??? The draft has been very good. Faiirley and Suh will give QBs a fit. Charles Rodgers and Mike Williams were busts, yes. But the Lions are ready for the next step. We need players and draft got us players.

i think we should give the lions staff a chance to prove to the fans why they drafted the way they did.i can see the direction they are going,i only ask that they try to get a cb,ol,and a lb in free angecy.if they can get decent talent in who they sign in free angecy at these positions poeple better watch out for the lions.

After this draft I am left wondering if the failure of the Millen regime was truly his fault.
By RYan on Apr 30, 2011 | Reply
These players fit specific rolls and anyone not oblivous to football can see them fitting with the offense, each pick has been spot on. Titas is natural and quick enough for a slot receiver and Leshoure is a RB with raw talent that can establish into a hard nosed runner. WITHOUT a doubt detroit has had the best draft. They draft the best player available and happen to have them fit their need. I think they have officially out- drafted the pats this year.
Ps. Troy, NEVER mention M** M*****'s name again on this website, we don't need anymore negative fans.

I agree with Ryan. I'm a little disappointed that we haven't picked up a Corner or Safety. That is my major concern. I am concerned with our secondary. However, that is my only concern. Coming from a couple of years ago win less, I do believe we have had one of the best drafts. All of the analyzers have agreed, and I am feeling extremely good about our next year of Football. Our offense should be exciting, and our defense should be bone chilling. I can't wait to hear the silence from Raiders fans when I go to the game! lol..Feel the Roar!

Great Draft! Picked up three highly talented players we could not get in the future as the team improves . Will not be drafting that high up. Also Mayhew and Schwartz picked up 8 players off wavers last year that are better quality then many late round picks.

You know what disgusts me? Fans like you, Troy. Uninformed, bold faced liars. Titus Young didn't have a good combine? I watched the whole thing and the guys were fawning over him. When they were doing the drill where they run, flip their hips and are instructed to catch the ball up and over their head, Young was the only one who did it perfectly the first time, earning a comment from Deon Sanders "THAT'S how you catch a football in the NFL. Use that kid as an example to the rest of these guys." I never forgot that, I thought the Pats would take him. Instead he's a Lion.
And who didn't have him ranked above those other WR's? The fat nerds who wrote the draft magazine your Mom bought you at Rite-Aid or the Detroit Lions? Go back to playing Madden and leave the real deal to the experts, you amateur.

I agree with Ryan. Now the Lions can fill other needs through free agency and
undrafted rookies such as Darrin Walls (cb) from Notre Dame and Tim Barnes (c) from Missouri
By Brandon on Apr 30, 2011 | Reply
I'm with you Ryan. Unbelievable draft. I actually kind of feel sorry for opposing QB's already! And the players taken after Fairley do fit roles that we definately needed filled. Titus is a burner, and the exact same thing was said about DeSean Jackson when he got drafted in the 2nd round (he's way to small). I'd take half of Jackson's production and be THRILLED. I'm so frickin pumped right now! Please please please let there be football this year

Excellent Draft! I believe that the lions coach and manager know a lot more than I do, but what I think I am reading is that the players Detroit has in the areas of need are more along the way than any rookie that was available to them. Also, they may want the league to think they need so many key players for key positions — they put a lot of work in with their corners — how good will they be this year, now that they do not have to learn the system. They can focus on their strengths as a cohesive defence. Mr. Fairley, Suh, Vanden Bosh, Avril Williams, Fluellen, Young, McBride, Jackson these men will write a new history for the lions — I hope they will challenge the offense to be better than they will be in years to come!
By SteVo on Apr 30, 2011 | Reply
So funny how the guy who watches everything break down from his couch is criticizing draft picks. Young gives us a good slot receiver, someone that defenses are going to have to watch. And, honestly, you think he's going to stay under 180lbs in a pro training regime? I highly doubt it. If you're not fully aware, there's not enough draft picks for 1 team to draft all their weaknesses. Free agency, players on waivers, trades – all valuable assets for filling gaps. Schwartz took players who fit what the coaches want, not what fans who don't get paid to do that job want.
By Tim on Apr 30, 2011 | Reply
Troy- Are you kidding me??? Have you watched tape on either Titus Young or Mikel LeShoure?? Titus resembles Desean Jackson, but I think he is more willing to go and get the ball than Jackson. And LeShoure had 1,700 yards rushing against Big Ten Teams!!! How can you say that is not good?? Some had Titus ranked as the 3rd best receiver and Mikel ranked higher than Mark Ingram. I especially like it because it will open up the field with Calvin and Burleson. And Mikel will be a great compliment to Jahvid..

I really think that the Lions are heading in the right direction they are putting together something great and Coach Schwartz it a great young coach talking this team to places they haven't been since the Barry Sanders days (my all time favorite) all they need to now is work on that one thing that they have always needed an O-line when they get that (O-Line) THEY WILL GET A RING!!! LET'S GO LIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a lifetime Cowboys fan. Above that though I am a football fan, and I have to say there is really no other team that I can't wait to see more this year than the Lions. Since "he who should not be named" has left your entire organization is on the rise, and I think this draft speaks volumes about the right decision makers being in place to help lead this team. In my humble opinion the Lions had the best draft – hands down. I was surprised to even read a negative comment on here, you guys are in great shape, plus there is still FA to think about (at some point). Best of luck to you guys this season! Hope Stafford stays healthy, and I look forward to seeing the Lions challenge for the division title!

Not sure why we didn't try to get an OT or corner when we traded up. But I know our front 4 will be wicked this year. I say 8-8 if Stafford can stay healthy. Maybe even 9-7! Our D will make the difference. WATCH OUT QB'S! THE RUSH IS ON!!!! GO LIONS!!!!

I think we all need to just sit back and watch, this group that is running the lions has been right far more than not, this is the first time in a long time I have been able to be excited about my team. Just make sure we protect Staffords blind side and watch this kid tear up the league. Our D will be fearless and will make everyone accoss the league take notice.
Knockdown a man Suh will have Failey and awesome success!!!

I thought we had a great draft. By taking Nick Fairley I believe we will have the most dominant defensive line in the league. I am however very disappointed that we did not take a OT in the second round. We need to keep Stafford healthy. I am also concerned about our defense past the defensive line. But, now that I have the negativity out of the way. We are drafting better than I can remember the Lions ever drafting. Think about it, in the past few years most of our impact players have come from the draft. I say 8-8 this year, playoffs next year, Super Bowl the year after that. Restore the Roar!
By Joe S on May 1, 2011 | Reply
MAN I have to agree with Lionnuts… we really needed to go out and get some OLine help for Stafford. If we want him healthy, we need to protect those glass shoulders of his. Another Running back?? How many do we need? Best will do the job….watch and wait… and another receiver…what is it with our Lions and their love affair with drafting receivers???? CB PRINCE was there and we let him go??? WHY???? I am perplexed… I can be excited about Fairley but I think we needed instant help in the defensive back area…before we got another Suh
By JohnnyG on May 1, 2011 | Reply
The forgotten man in all this is Sammie Hill, who last year was coming on strong. Drafting Fairley allows the Lions to get very creative with the front four and gives them a ton of depth. The Lions are now set at DT for the next 5-6 years, which is something we have never said before.

We drafted him to blow the tops off the def and open it up for Johnson/Burleson/Pettigrew! Nice Pick! Then to jump up and get a workhorse back like Leshoure who's gonna be a great dou with best! Mark my words that you'll be eating urs by mid season! Oh and on the CB"s, Petterson was only sure thing! We can get Free Agent that is mature and knows job! Asamugha from Oak is one and he's the #2 CB in the league! Trust these guys! They've given us no reason not to!! GO LIONS!

Sorry Troy…….I'm going to have to agree with Chad. Size doesn't hold much weight (get it????? it's a size joke) in the NFL these days. LIke Chad brought up, Deshaun Jackson is a good example of that. Also Danny Woodhead is a good example also. Nick Fairley, Suh, Vanden Bosch, and Avril are a BEASTLY defensive front. I must say that I am truly excited for this next season.

I agree with the above comments. We will have an absolutely monsterous defensive line. On the other hand, the secondary and linebacking core does not give me a lot of confidence. In order to make a serious playoff run this year, I think we must add some quality personnel to the secondary and beef up the o-line to give our franchise quarterback a little more protection. If we can protect Matt, he has WEAPONS all around him. Who do you think the Lions we pick up in free agency? I hear Ochocinco is in play, Asomunga?

Great Draft for the Lions. Would have like to see a CB taken early but you cannot pass on Nick Fairley at 13. With a D Line like we now have I could play CB for the Lions. NAH!! Just kidding I would get myself killed! We have solidified the RB, WR, and D Line positions for years to come. The Lions are headed in the right direction.

Go back to your couch and eat your cheezies. You probably never played football and don't know anything about the game at all. Boise might have a weak division but this reciever caught tons of balls. Something that Bryant Johnson or the other boobs can't do. And in 427 carries and no fumbles for Leshoure, he'll prove worthy of the jump in the draft. So if you want to whine go on the Vikings site and tell them they suck!!

The draft will be a hit, a bust or something in between, just like any other year . Now on to more important matters, getting rid of the godawful black trim on the uniforms. Are we the Detroit Lions or the Carolina Wannabes? Oh yeah, to all you Cosell Einsteins here, the DB's aren't the problem, yes they're young and raw but it's the coaching staff that has to fix that, it's the LB corp that is abysmal, Levy has shown he may be above average, Campbell, Carpenter, Circiu, Palmer, Follett, Johnson, Ekejiuba, not a single one are more than special teams wedge busters. Anyone who thinks different goes to Millen fambly reunions. On the OL, Backus may not have become the next Orlando Pace we all hoped for but he's solid, it's Raiola that's the weak link, he tips off the snap with his head bob on almost every play, watch the tape. We were ohfer not so long ago, minimal injuries, a lot of lucky breaks and a healthy QB are needed to reach .500 or a playoff berth. Another offseason addressing the OL and LB's is needed before we're legitimate, in the meantime enjoy the young talent, the Schwartz doing the freak on the sidelines and the heartbreak of being a Detroit Lions fan.

I agree with 'Richard'…when Suh gets a sack, they should play Johnny Cashs' 'A Boy named Sue' and when the part in the song comes "how do you do" The whole crowd should shout in unison, "HOW-DO-YOU-DO!" Ford Field will go nuts!!! SUH will love it!!

i was thinking CB in the draft as well, until Fairley fell in our laps… they drafted very well… whos needs top level CB's when the aposing team is never going to have time to throw the ball ? lol so looking forward to this season…
By Ben on Jun 3, 2011 | Reply
Whoever wants to dump Avril is wrong. He will get double digit sacks this year and some of Suh's sacks can be directly connected to Avril. I hope we have the team concept cause there won't be enough balls to go around with all our offensive skill players. I don't beleive the other teams will be able to send many receivers in the pattern as some will be needed to block to save their QB.

HEY Ben, you are right on the money, the lions front four will raise hell in any teams backfield, and that is without blitzing. And beside that the tightends and running back that they leave to block will only get themselves hurt, if 300 pound linemen can't stop them, I wouldn't want to be the tailback that's asked to stop suh or fairley.

Sunrise and Smoke
This was the sunrise yesterday. It makes for an interesting photo but not when you live in it. I'm leaving for the weekend. I'm going to the Bay Area to see my mother. Hopefully the smoke will not be so thick there. I'll be back on Monday.

Oh what a sight that is. Enjoy your weekend with your Mother.
I read a firefighter's blog that is out there fighting those fires. He said they are working 48 hour shifts. I would think the neighboring states would send in some reinforcements to help get those fires put out.

Welcome to the madness!! We are going to give you a short preview of each of the regional team's outlook in this year's first weekend of the NCAA tournament. UMass, Harvard, UConn, and Providence earned births to the big dance, and all of these teams will put their seasons on the line this thursday or friday. We will also be posting links to where you can watch the live stream of each game before it begins.
Here is the outlook for the University of Massachusetts:
Who: The winner of Iowa Vs. Tennessee
The No.6 seed Minute Men will have their hands full with whatever team they face in the second round. Iowa can score, especially for a Big Ten team, and Tennessee has an good inside-out game that fits tournament play.
When: Friday 2:45 EST
Potential Third Round Matchup: Duke
New Englanders will be pulling for Mercer to come away with the upset over the Blue Devils. But I wouldn't get my hopes up…
Will they get to the Sweet 16?: No
I don't think UMass would have the guard play to get past both Iowa/Tennessee and Duke. If Mercer can beat Duke, then they have a shot, but a lot of things would have to go right for UMass to make it to the last sixteen.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I went to this school when I was little and It was a Blue Ribbon School for years. Now I have 3 children that go here and I think overall it is a great school.
My son went to this school from K-6. He enjoyed this teachers as much as he did the school. The teachers are very concerned at Northeast Elem. about the education of all the children. They want all the children to learn all that they can about everything there is to teach a child. They put themselves in the place of the parents. They give them love, hugs, and kisses too! Sometimes they get to give the parents hugs or hand shakes. They believe in working with the parents to help their children in anyway possible. How do I know? I'm a concern parent whose child went to this school. I give this school a 10. Thumbs up to Northeast Elem.
My child came to Northeast Elem. from a private, high cost school. I feel that the quality of education she is receiving is excellent. It's good to hear you child say she loves going to school. My husband and I are glad we put our child back into the public school system. They need more schools like this one.
Northeast Elementary is a great school! The principal and teachers are supportive. It is a beautiful school and my daughter loves it.
I give my highest compliments to the teaching staff of Northeast Elem. Both of my chlidren attended this school before we moved and I have nothing but good to say about the education they received at an elementary level. We have now moved and my son will be attending a Magnet school. Both of my children miss Northeast terribly.
I have been very satisfied with the quality of education that my boys have recieved so far at Northeast Elementary.

How a Single Tweet Launched A Cloud for Climbing

Lamb of God exudes metal -- long hair, a gregarious nature, and insane solos -- and puts on a superb live show, as this two-hour flick shows in detail. One of the best parts of the band's performance is the extravagance that is Chris Adler's drumming. The man has 18 cymbals and he uses them all. Indeed, Killadelphia is made for the fans. Yet unlike many other band movies, this doesn't focus on the individual members but on how Lamb of God is as a group. And surprisingly, that includes footage of vocalist Randy Blythe belligerent and ready to fight, a scene with the band confronting Blythe about his drinking problem ruining shows, and even a drunken brawl where guitarist Mark Morton knocks Blythe out in the streets of Glasgow. With Killadelphia you get far more than an insane live show in Philadelphia (complete with the biggest circle pit Philly's Trocadero has ever seen); you get insight into how the band really works. Sure, these guys can drink every night, but they also punch each other in the face. Towards the end of the DVD, Morton confesses, "We're probably not the band you want to be." Maybe not, but Lamb of God is the band we want to watch.

ILL WIND TO AMERICA! America is the land of ten-year-old Hannah's dreams. For her and her sister, twelve-year-old Abigail, just leaving Chelmsford for London with her father and their stepmother is an adventure. But the real excitement begins when they board the Arbella and set sail for Massachusetts Bay. Their voyage in the dark, smelly hold is unlike anything Hannah could have imagined. Then there's Zach, the indentured servant. Not even disapproving Abigail can keep Hannah away from her new friend with his tales of raging storms and enormous spouting creatures of the deep. Soon Hannah sees them herself -- and learns what it is like to be marooned at sea, fighting side-by-side with her sister to survive a storm that threatens to drown them all....

New York, NY (Sports Network) - Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice, Cleveland Browns linebacker D'Qwell Jackson and Indianapolis' T.Y. Hilton have been selected as the AFC's top players for Week 12 of the NFL season.
Rice picked up the offensive award after totaling 67 receiving yards and 97 yards on the ground as the Ravens rallied to beat San Diego in overtime. He helped force overtime by taking a short pass and converting a 4th-and-29 late in the fourth quarter. Six plays later, Justin Tucker nailed the game-tying field goal.
Jackson garnered the defensive honor after posted a team-high nine tackles, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery in the Browns' 20-14 win over Pittsburgh. He was part of a unit that registered eight takeaways.
The rookie Hilton was recognized as the top special teams performer after returning a punt 75 yards for a touchdown in the Colts' 20-13 victory over Buffalo. He also recorded an 8-yard touchdown reception in the game, becoming the first player in Colts history to have a punt-return TD and touchdown reception in the same game.

I'm going to a fancy dress party as Alice in wonderland with a twist. I made a simple dress in purple satin like fabric I don't know what it is as I was given it., the skirt part is very full. I also made a simple apron in pink cotton. I'm a size 22 and the dress was a bit big so I had to put green ties on the back. on one of the photos i did the ties up but pulled the dress up as well. It's comfortable and fun to wear

See, when they skipped town, Members of Congress left a whole bunch of proposals sitting on the table – actions that would create jobs, boost our economy, and strengthen middle-class security. These ideas have been around for months. The American people want to see them passed. But apparently, some Members of Congress are more worried about their jobs and their paychecks this campaign season than they are about yours.

i heard SIRIUS was going to have an excellent earnings report, anybody else heard
Sirius is a good bet to post good earnings and future since Stern resigned
"Does the new Blackberry radio app negatively effect Sirius shares?"
Gad! First the bloggers here butcher journalistic integrity by misrepresenting what others write, and now they're butchering the language. Would an understanding of the difference between "affect" and "effect" affect how this was written? Would it have an effect? Likely not. For a minute I thought I was reading the National Enquirer here.
The Blackberry radio app will suffer from the same problems that mobile radio implementations suffer in general. These include, but are not limited to, buffering issues, connectivity issues (including no signal at all in many areas), rising costs as data charges increase, and bland content. So this new app will, in the long run, only serve to increase the price of Sirius shares as people look for more reliable service and better content.
Hey look, its Ricker again.
I use a streaming radio application with zero buffering issues and no data charges. Its 2011, upgrade your cell service. No to mention, Wi-Fi is everywhere.
If by "bland content" you mean, all the music I could ever want to listen to, totally customized to my liking… yes it's REALLY bland
JennieB says "no data charges." Really? Aren't they built into your mobile plan? And do you really think that they will stay as low as they are? The trend is toward higher data charges, and scarcity of bandwidth. That does not bode well for "entertainment" delivered via Wi-Fi.
And "Wi-Fi" is everywhere? Get out of the city once in a while and see the real world. I can drive right across the country and have innumerable Wi-Fi interruptions. Sirius is much more reliable.
Yes, SXMfan, it is Ricker again, just trying to keep people honest. And, given the comment above, I suppose I have to try to keep some people literate as well.

problem - media center gadget starts but freezes immediatly
media center returns "media center cannot start" via start menu
so basicaly it just doesnt want to work, i understand the graphics card may be an issue but it cant be upgraded, its hardwired into the motherboard. and windows 7 seems to co-operate quite well with it for everything else that doesnt demand to much rendering (i dont know how to turn rendering on though so if someone can point me to that it'd be great)

8 High School Sex Lessons I Learned From Judy Blume
Let's face it: Judy Blume explained a lot of stuff our parents didn't. (Or did, but the conversation was so awkward you've never looked at your dad the same again.) Here are just a few sex lessons that got us through those awkward junior-high days straight from the books of Ms. Blume:
"You're a romantic. I'm a realist. We look at sex differently ... I see it as a physical thing, and you see it as a way of expressing love." -- "Forever." From that point on, I learned there were two lovemaking camps: bad girls (like Erica) and good girls (like Kathy). I landed somewhere in the middle; I loved to bang, but fell in love with every douchebag that took me up on the offer.
"'Oh ... oh', Michael cried, but I didn't come. I wasn't even close. 'I'm sorry,' he said. 'I couldn't hold off.'" -- "Forever." Pro: Saved me years of disappointment from my boyfriend's inability to last long enough to get me off. Con: I've faked most of my orgasms since.
"'I guess we should ride around for awhile. We can circle the field, that way he might notice me.' They rode around three times but if Georgia Blue Eyes noticed Andrea he kept it to himself." -- "Starring Sally J. Freedman As Herself." Hovering around the object of your affection and staring without saying anything has a name. It's called stalking and it will only creep him out. (Didn't we already learn this, people?)
"The StairMaster's truck was parked in front of her house. 'It's been there for an hour at least,' she whispered. 'And don't tell me they're just talking.'" -- "Here's to You, Rachel Robinson." When your dad won't stop coming down to the basement to
"They took turns pretending to be Von, lying on top of one another, rubbing the Power against the other's Power until the electrical current buzzed through their bodies." -- "Summer Sisters." Mmmmmm, masturbation! (I didn't do the whole girl-on-girl thing, but WHOA, what a discovery.)
"I sat next to Moose. He smelled very nice. I got to touch his hand a couple times because he was a lefty and I was a righty so now and then, we'd bump." -- "Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret." Sometimes it's not the crazy, passionate dry-humping but the quick glances and hand-holding underneath the kitchen table that gets us most in the mood.
"I wanted to dance with Buddy. I wanted to in the worst way but all I could think of was my brace and I hated it more than ever." -- "Deenie." Braces, glasses, zits, etc. You're waaaay more worried about it than he is. Promise.
"No matter how many guys come and go, we'll always be together." -- "Summer Sisters." And the best lesson of all ladies, no matter what goes down with the opposite sex, it's your girls that will Facebook-stalk him with you.

I wholly agree with you (and I'm a pornographer). Used to be a person needed to either pay or have a great degree of technical savvy to access explicit porn on the web. Now there are free, point-and-click "tube" sites (mostly based in Europe) that stream huge libraries of hardcore pornography, sustained by advertising. This makes any kid with access to an internet device able to see adult material (and share it with their friends). I'm a father and outraged by this. Adult things like guns, alcohol and pornography don't belong within a child's reach.

It could really depress me if I took all these comments seriously. Too much ignorance IS harmful, but too much knowledge of facts combined with too little knowledge of values---give me a break! Far too harmful. Several years ago I read that Judy Blume's daughter once asked her something like: "What about a story where a boy and girl do it and nothing bad happens?" So Ms. Blume foolishly wrote one. Whatever religion she may have professed, she SHOULD have told the truth to the girl: "Dear lovable daughter, something bad ALWAYS happens when a couple jump the gun." Not always pregnancy or STD (thank God) but cheapening and degrading and making tawdry what is supposed to be a vital, loving, binding experience between husband & wife that sometimes produces a baby. My spouse & I stayed out of trouble, not even coming close to illicit sex. We were both 25 by a few weeks after our marriage. We have 4 children and several grandchildren. We have seen the painful damage that has been done to people. But to people who have already erred--your life and relationships CAN be repaired, but it will require some help. When ANYTHING goes wrong in your life, sex or anything else, I urge you to ask God for help and for forgiveness. Some changes in your attitudes and behavior will be required, but the result is well worth the cost. I have been rescued many times. God bless and good-night.

Jesus saved my sex life too.......ha, get real man. Not trying to be mean or ignorant here really, but, yeah. Life is life. Experience what you can. Learn lessons, try not to be an asshole. Live and let live. What's good for one person is not good for everyone. I recommend a sociology course. Faith is a great thing, don't get me wrong. But responsibility is often times overlooked as a result of that. But hey, what do I know......enjoi the day.

Semi-Pelagius presents the kind of viewpoint of the indoctrinated, sincere but mindelssly obedient person who has been told "facts" which are not true, and then "respects" the fictitious notions with which she has been brainwashed. That there is a god only in the minds of people who choose to fantasize such a power is not terribly important. More vital is the fact that people are social creatures, and their social behaviors are very real, whether or not sincere but misguided religious types decry such behavior. It's fascinating to hear of the many ministers who rail against sex and sin, then get caught having done lots of both. And it's sad to meet people who have been so indocrtinated to think of sex as evil that they cannot enjoy it even when they are finally freed to within the socially approved marital constraints.
There is excellent reason that Judy Blume has been so popular. She teaches about the realities of our very real world in a perspective that kids can understand and relate to, can learn from and grow through. Reality can be messy. But growing up ignorant of reality is not the solution to the mess.

Our daughter read Judy Blume's books and after she went to bed one evening I decided to see what interested her so. This particular book made me upset. One part I'll never forget was of a jr. high (?) school group of girls taunting and harassing a fellow girl student just because she was fat...and even assaullting her in their gym class locker room...a type of rape scene actually! I was furious. This was not the kind of behavior I was trying to teach my daughter. I felt compelled to write Judy Bloom a letter that very night and told her how, as a Mom, I felt these types of books were not appropriate. I was amazed when I actually got a response letter back from her. She said she wrote things that happen in "real life" and she would continue to do so. I was glad she took the time to write back...but Ive never been a fan since.

Imagine that dear girl's response today! You were right to voice your concern; what if everybody in New York never listened or cared if there was a murder or rape taking place in the street beside them. Been there.

I'm a 26 year old woman and remember reading Dear God, It's Me, Margaret in 4th grade and loving it! I got to learn all about the "changes" that girls go through and felt like it really related to me! The book took me through all of the information that my stepmom was too embarrassed to talk to me about! I fully plan on having my girls read this book while they are growing up and using it as a tool to help have those "talks". I loved that it was a relatable story, rather than an over-cheesy or medical book.
Please parents, do not be naive in thinking that your young girls will not learn this stuff. I'd much rather have them read it in a Judy Blume book than hear it (and they will) incorrectly from a friend. As much as you'd like to think they'll ask you if they have questions, what 10 year old girl really wants to talk to her mom about things like that?! Again, this is my opinion, and we are each entitled to one!

On Saturday the 14th of September I woke up with the conviction that no matter what happened I would smile the entire day. I would not give myself a single moment to process the fact that today would mean that I was less than 48 hours from the moment I would stand at security and cry as I hugged my friends goodbye at Heathrow.
I decided that for this event I wanted something special and decided to tackle a project I have wanted to do for nearly two years. My spencer is fashioned after the one worn by Louise of Prussia. It is the first time I have ever used proper tailoring methods and I now have a great respect for pad stitching. My bonnet was created last February for the Keetje Hodshon Regency Ball in Haarlem by the magnificent Lynn McMasters with a few feathers added on top by yours truly.
I started off the morning with an interview by a Japanese morning show being televised live in Tokyo. I thrilled the reporter by replying in my rusty Japanese. I was then borrowed for another interview for a morning show in Bath. During the promenade I took immense pleasure in photo-bombing tourist photos, especially throwing up the peace sign with Japanese tourist who nearly fainted in shock.
After the promenade a man remarked that I looked like Lydia Bennet rushing off towards the soldiers, I countered by saying that I was indeed Fanny Price searching for Edmund. A complete stranger stopped and turned around to say 'My dear there is no way you could be plain Fanny, you are Mary Crawford without the attitude'. As a Jane Austen devotee (especially to Mansfield Park) this is one of the most touching compliments I have ever received and I will carry it with me. I was utterly taken aback (in the most positive of ways) and a friend had to make apologies for my sudden loss of speech and thank her for me.
Through friends I was able to find photos of me on three major news websites including The Guardian which I am completely tickled and honoured by. The most amazing moment was when I poured myself a cup of smoky earl grey from my dwindling stock of Fortnum & Mason tea jar and settled down on Flickr to peruse the photos.
Words cannot describe my utter shock at finding so many photos of myself (especially the ones with the little girls. I LOVE photos with children). The best moment came when I came across the page of Steve Wassell ( All rights reserved by fat-freddies-cat ). I don't want to use the word shy (because I am definitely not) but I am usually very aware of my smile because when I am happy I have the tendency to grin very wide. But to see this photo and see how happy I was reflected in my eyes is completely priceless. Mr. Wassell, I am unsure if you will ever see this but I cannot find the words to thank you enough for the gift you have given me. You have allowed me a form of closure, I am able to look back on this weekend and recognize it for the truly magical time it was. I was fortunate enough to have been able to spend my last few days with my dearest and closest friends before flying off with a smile on my heart and in my eyes.

When I received my invitation to the Hampshire Regency Dancers Ball I only read two lines before I decided I had to attend:
'As Jane Austen wrote in 'Pride & Prejudice' "Do not you feel a great inclination, Miss Bennet, to seize such an opportunity of dancing a reel?"
Where better to dance a reel & celebrate the 200th anniversary of the novel than at this year's Hampshire Regency Dancers Ball'.
An amusing thing happened late Saturday night. I had just finished the Swiss Allemande and was dancing down the dark hallway in search of a glass of water when I heard someone behind me gasp. I turned around to find the head of the house at the end of the hallway staring at me with his hand over his heart as if he has seen a ghost. I finally broke the silence to enquire if he was alright as he was quite pale but this caused him to step back against the wall. Very worried I walked towards him which seemed to alarm him greatly. Then I realized that in my white gown in the darkened hallway of Chawton House I must have looked like the ghost that was haunting the home. Which I of course took as a grand compliment! I wanted to achieve a floating gossamer feel for the ball. While making this gown I frequently practiced the Duke of Kent's Waltz to ensure that it floated properly.
My evening gown is a direct copy of the following fashion plate (click the link): 1817- Ackermann's Repository Series2 Vol 3 - April Issue
My exam for my Bachelors Degree is at 9:55 BST and what no one knows is that what I am wearing is the same outfit I wore three years ago in Singapore to my interview for acceptance into Wimbledon College of Art. I thought it was fitting to close this adventure with what I wore to start it. Please say a small prayer for me or spare a kind thought. My nerves are dancing down my spine.
Sweet dreams everyone!
The Sleeping Seamstress, Ad for Globéol by Gerda Wegener
c. 1915
In writing an account of the Ball for The Graphic, Lady Violet Greville felt, as she spoke of the Princess of Wales, constrained to quote the 16th-century French author Brantôme who described Marguerite de Valois as "robed in cloth of silver with long sleeves, her hair richly dressed and her whole appearance of such grace and majesty that she resembled more a goddess from heaven than a Queen upon earth."
At long last I can share my costume with the world. Eight months ago I entered my final year at Wimbledon College of Art studying Costume Interpretation. Our first assignment was to create a costume to compliment the new exhibition at the Queen's Gallery in Buckingham Palace entitled 'In Fine Style'. As I walked around the Red Room during the Da Vinci exhibition I could never imagine that just a short while later my own costume would grace this majestic room.
I chose to recreate the fancy dress costume of Alexandra, Princess of Wales dressed as Marguerite de Valois worn to the Duchess of Devonshire House Ball in 1897. As I was the intern for The Tudor Tailor last year and helped to make the costumes and work on the photo shoot for the new book The Tudor Child (I cried when I found my name in the Acknowledgements) I was requested to create the costume of the Hon. Louvima Knollys who accompanied Alexandra as her page.
The skirt and bodice is entirely finished by hand. I started with eight small appliqués to build my shape and completed the surface decoration by hand based on the photos. I thought after this costume I would never wish to string another pearl or couch another row again but for my final costume I am still working on beading. I was able to study close ups of the image at the National Archives and I was graciously granted permission to study hi-res images of the 4 existing photographs of Alexandra. Both of these allowed me to re-create what is hopefully a very close historic reproduction of this costume.
I am grateful to both of my models, to all of the researchers who assisted me in this endeavour to track down photos to study, to you my followers who continue to inspire me, and most of all to my mother who was very patient during my frantic midnight phone calls.
I will leave you with the quote that first came to mind when my models descended the staircase into the gallery last night, ' She [Alexandra] came down one day in a marvellous … long flowering train. She dazzled me utterly, I was speechless with adoration'.
As I am entering into my final project as a student I thought it would be a good idea to record my thoughts on my project and share my work with you. Our final costume is meant to be a representation of who we are as makers and as creators. I have had a life-long love affair with ballet and with the 18th century so I saw no better way to express myself than to combine the two. My hopes are to re-create a historical ballet costume that could be found in a modern production. I have chosen an 18th century design by Jean-Baptiste Martin entitled Paysanne Galante (1722) used in the Ballet de la Provencale and other dances. The second portrait is one of my favourites because in my mind she represent Payanne as a real costume. It's one thing to have a drawing of an idea but it's another to find a living woman wearing something similar.
More information on this project can be found on The Mended Soul
My mother pointed out last night that this design I am bringing to life is the epitome of an Ornamented Being. I can't explain the reason but that thought warms my heart.
I am so proud of all of my friends who were able to participate in this gorgeous event!
For more information on The Netherfield Ball (for those with access to BBC2 it's on right now!) please click me.
I am in my final year studying Costume Interpretation at Wimbledon College of Art in London. In our third year we are assigned three major projects.
The first project will be displayed at the opening of 'In Fine Style' at The Queen's Gallery in Buckingham Palace. More information about that project can be found in this post here. Unfortunately my first and third costumes are still not mine to share but I can happily share with you details about the second costume.
The project was called Ordinary Lives. Part of the assignment was to have this costume completed in six weeks. Unfortunately on the last day of term I started over from WWI and choose to create an 1860s mourning gown which was my very first choice in the beginning.
Why mourning you might ask? I was born in a small town in Tennessee that has direct ties to the Civil War and as a child I often came across items associated with Victorian Mourning in the antique stores. As I grew up my mother encouraged this curiosity. During my breaks when I visit my parents I work with The Woodruff-Fontaine House in Memphis, Tennessee on preserving their amazing costume collection and helping with their exhibitions. Our assignment was to find an image of an everyday person and to recreate their clothing. When I came across Miss Maggie Webber in her second stage of mourning she spoke to me.
I will be discussing the unique features on her undergarments a little later but for now you can see those images here.
All of the long stitches on Maggie's costume were made by machine but everything else was completed by hand. I am very fond of piping which is reflected in the hand piped armbands, the swiss waist, and neckline of Maggie's collar. The trim on Maggie's collar is from an extant costume. According to the dealer the trim came from a shattered 1863 mourning bodice. I find it very fitting that 150 years later it will once again grace a mourning garment. The veil was done by hand and took one and a half episodes of Criminal Minds to complete. The swiss waist was a bit of a challenge simply because I ended up creating my own pattern.
In total, this costume has taken seventeen days to complete. To date I feel that it is one of my strongest pieces and I am very pleased with the outcome. Even though the life of Maggie Webber will forever be shrouded in mystery it is my hope that by recreating her gown I have made sure her memory continues on.

the best drug store brow product ever! brow wiz dupe! it is a bit pricey for the amount of product that comes in it. i stock up when its on sale.
This stuff is amazing. I prefer it over Anastasia brow kit. It's just so creamy and looks so natural to fill in sparse areas. Just wow. I would appreciate it more if they lowered the price because this stuff doesn't last long but it's worth it.

I bought this when my hair has been platinum and when my had been black... I like the way this applies on my brows and I like how it stays on but I hate that it doesn't last long. I used it for a few weeks and I skipped day and It was all gone. Also the lightest shade pulls reddish tones. It's an ok eye brow pencil but I'd spend the extra money and get the sephora brow pencil that last longer and colors are more natural.
BEST brow product I've ever tried. It comes in a super fine twist up pencil. No sharpening needed, and you won't have to worry about twisting up too much because it twists up the smallest amount each time.
It's best to use light strokes (so as to not make the brows look unnatural). The pencil is quite hard, so you can get a precise line, but this also means that the pencil lasts a long time (at least several months with daily use).
It isn't super non budgy, so be careful not to touch your eyebrows too much. This shouldn't be too much of a problem really...
You may also need a clear gel or something to keep the brows in place.
I have this HOLY GRAIL mother of an eyebrow pencil in dark blonde. Let me tell you. I teach spinning classes, and I swim laps, and my eyebrows are still on!! This is half the cost of the sephora waterproof eyebrow pencil, and the color is more blonde than taupe. continued >>
My eyebrows are nearly nonexistent and I have been searching endlessly for the perfect brow option. I found this product for about 7$ at target and I decided to try it out and honestly I love it. You don't have to sharpen it so you get your brows perfectly detailed with extreme ease and they look very natural. The formula is very nice, not to heavy and waxy like a lot of brow pencils I have previously tried. And for me I've found it stays all day long without ANY issues at all. However I did just read that they are discontinuing the "Dark Brown" color which I hope desperately is not true because it is the perfect color with out any reds in it which I find a lot of brunettes need.

I bought this because it was non-sharpening and inexpensive. I like the tiny tip, and the fine comb on the end is great for separating my mascara covered lashes as well as grooming my brows. If you don't like the comb, you can pull it off.
The colour, Dark Brown, works well for me, but it's discontinued :-/ The pencil fills in my sparse areas with a natural look. It doesn't last past lunchtime, which is annoying, but it does settle into my large pores leaving me with tiny dots for eyebrows, which is even more annoying.

I LOVE this eyebrow pencil. I have it in Dark Blonde which is a near perfect dupe for MAC's lingering. I bought this because I wanted to see if I could find the same quality as MAC's for a cheaper price. (MAC is 18 and this is 6) It really is almost exactly the same. The color match is perfect for me and the comb on the end is great. It is a little waxier than the MAC one but it still goes on pretty smoothly and looks great. Lasts all day without any brow gel. Definitely worth trying.

This eyebrow liner is pretty good I'd say =) I don't use it to fill in my whole brows, just kind of to trace and give my eyebrows a cleaner finish then go in with a brown eyeshadow. But this product is really good =) I was definately not a fan of the small red colored brow liners because they made my eyebrows look weird and red so this product was a complete shocker for me! Then again, that's why I love Maybelline! Would buy again =)
I don't know why is product gets such negative reviews (on the Maybelline website). I just had to go to three stores to find a replacement my color bc everyone was sold out. I love that it is a thin tip, it helps me get much cleaner strokes. It lasts all day. I can make my brows lighter to look more natural or darker to be bold. Love that it comes with a little comb.
My only unpostive (not negative) comment is that it does not come with a lot of product... in other words runs out fast.

What can we learn from the Shirley Sherrod case? That unexamined media should not prompt impulsive responses? That race is a card being played by both sides? That the new media is not as scrupulous as what was once called journalism? Who's at fault and what is the fault line? Unemployment benefit extension was approved but at what cost? And BP and the Gulf oil spill aren't over yet… who's really the responsible party here?

The Gathering
Winner of the CBCA of the Year: Older Readers When Nathanial and his mother move to the quiet, safe streets of Cheshunt, he immediately senses something wrong.

Anna: Honey, have you seen the household product aisle?
Ayrat: I am completely lost! I can't even see where the trolleys are.
Anna: They are next to the entrance. I don't know where the frozen food section is!
Ayrat: This supermarket is huge! Wait! I see a sign there.
Anna: It says we are heading to the fruit and vegetable section.
Ayrat: Perfect! Maybe we can just buy fruit and vegetables and leave.

In those days, going to that store was usually how I found out what titles existed on a particular topic.
I can pretty much always find what I'm looking for there, and if I'm in a hurry, the staff will point me to exactly where it is on the shelves. I still discover new titles I hadn't known about as I'm browsing. And occasionally my browsing leads me to forego a title that really looked good from it's cover, but just wasn't what I needed when I looked inside. Other times I'll find which author of a Java networking book has addressed a problem very similar to something I need to do.
As I look at my bookshelves, I would estimate 85-90% of the books are from Softpro

I bought my first O'Reilly book at Softpro

That's the same store where my own O'Reilly books are mostly from too (I have 2 or 3 from a local B&N where I first disovered O'Reilly years ago). A friend showed me SoftPro (the Burlington, MA store) last year, I joined the "Team O'Reilly" program there, and I've bought enough books to already have several free ones from that program. All the books were discounted 20% off the top, and the employees there (sometimes the store owner is there too) are really knowledgeable about what they stock. Although I haven't been able to attend one yet, the store also hosts live talks by many of the authors whose books they carry.
I would never get this kind of service and enjoyable shopping experience online, and I don't think I've paid much more for my books there than Amazon was selling them for. Mostly, I love knowing I'm supporting an "indie" business which cares about its offerings and its customers.
I realize not everyone is fortunate to have a store like this close by, but I agree, if you can get in there to browse, and they have what you need, keep them in business and make the purchase there too.
