Poppy had smiled at Brad, giving him a little eye roll before she settled into her seat and watched the road ahead of them, the headlights creating a triangle on the road as the truck moved down the familiar streets that seemed desolate and unlike what she recalled. She wasn't exactly sure what to say, but she knew she had the desire to say something. How her wit had taken a back seat while in jail those six months, she grinned to herself at the realization, knowing talking back to prison guards caused you to get into trouble and talking back to inmates meant a fight.
Out of practice or not, she honestly had no idea what to say to the man who had come to her rescue without so much as asking why, just simply where she was at. It was so like him, she had thought silently, and she was glad to see he hadn't changed much. Licking her lips, her eyes darted this way and that, not once finding the driver out of fear of what her stomach might do, after all she was already having a hard time with it and seeing his face so close to her own and recalling the fondest of memories, it might make her upchuck all over his dashboard.
Swallowing the feeling, she just tried to relax and think of something else, something unimportant like how Elysium had slightly expanded, how there were more things here and there where there once was a nice field. Breathing in deeply, she raised her eyebrows as they slowed to a stop, the sound of the engine running being the only sound that filled her ears. What was she going to say? What could she say? What was something new she could discuss? It had been a year, or more, and she couldn't think of anything new to talk about? Had they separated on such shit terms that she couldn't even think of something to bullshit about?
Suddenly, without warning, Brad's voice filled the truck and she frowned, looking over at him quickly. For a moment, she wasn't sure what the hell he said, or what she heard, so all she could do was stare at him with a confused look on her face, with a hint of amusement. The man was quick to recover, talking about how her face looked like an albino's. Swallowing, she realized she was doing that too much, her stomach was churning and her body was wanting to quake from the withdrawal that was coming fast and loose.
"I-I'm fine." She had absentmindedly stated, so low that she couldn't even hear it herself, but with how she kept feeling her mouth water, she knew it was coming. The vomit was right there at the base of her throat and it was gonna come out, but when and where was the big question of the moment.
Brad had drove into a pharmacy parking lot, that much she could tell by the blinding neon lights that were making her head hurt, her stomach more nauseous than it already was. Threading her brow together, she grabbed her thighs with her hands, squeezing gently as she squirmed in her seat, especially the moment her old friend shifted in his own seat to glare at her, going on about the obvious things, stating how there was this thing between them, the silence, the radio, the communication out of nowhere…it was making her sick and she was gonna blow.
He had said something as he jumped out of the car and over to her door, pulling it open and unbuckling her seatbelt, grabbing her shoulders in a way that was firm, yet gentle and caring. Her eyes bounced in between his own as she finally opened her mouth, lifting her own hands to his firm upper arms.
"Dick," Poppy had said to him, nodding her head, "so many questions!" As she tried to laugh off the discomfort she felt inside her body, along with how he had brought up things she honestly didn't want to think about right then, she couldn't. Her eyes got big and she was quick to push him back as she felt the bile creep up her throat, burning along the way, as she jumped down next to his truck and gripped the side of the truck bed and bent forward, expelling all contents that were in her stomach all over his wheels.
The noise echoed throughout the night as she heard the disgusting splash of…whatever was in her stomach, onto the ground, splattering against her shoes and the pristine tires of Brad's lovely automobile. After a few seconds of gasping for air, she finally stood up, pushing her hair out of her face, spitting the nasty taste out of mouth before placing her hands on her hips and glared over at Brad.
"You…you're so ugly that when you got too close to my face…I was overcome with this urge to vomit." Poppy gave a light laugh, but she knew that this was only the beginning of her sickness.
"I really hate that name," he said lowly, rolling his eyes as he squeezed Poppy's shoulder, as if by doing it she would tell him the truth. He turned his eyes into slits as he locked his eyes onto the greens he almost forgot, green eyes he thought told him something, but really nothing. Glancing at her hands that held onto his arms, he clenched his jaw. It was still there, that shock that always coursed through him everytime she touched him. Sometimes he wondered if she was hiding a second ability from him, an ability that would explain why he always felt something when it was her. Yup, she has that electric power shit, he thought to himself as he let out a breath he didn't know he was holding.
Before he knew it, she threw him aside with surprising force and jumped out of his truck. Bending at her waist, Brad walked right beside her. He began to rub soothing circles on her back as she continued to throw up, worry, once again, coming up his face as he glanced around the decently packed parking lot. "There, there?" he said as a feeble attempt to suck away the suck that was happening to her at the moment. For a moment, his hand hovered above her hair, not knowing exactly if he should pull it away from her face so that the puke doesn't get on it. But even before he had the chance to decide, Poppy quickly stood up and glared at him.
Moving back, he raised his hands in front of him, his head tilting to the side as he was met by those glaring green eyes. "I helped," he said. "I rubbed your back and stuff so don't look at me like I did that to you." Chuckling at his own joke, he immediately cleared his throat when he noticed no reaction whatsoever from Poppy. Craning his neck to hear what she was saying, he took a step towards her while also making sure to bypass the puddle of puke right beside his car. "Okay, first of all, I doubt that," he said, the tone of his voice light as he mimicked how she stood. "Secondly, that was disgusting but I'm giving you a pass because you look like shit right now. No offense." Taking another step towards her, he pushed the hand that was on her hip away and set his own on her shoulder. Bending on his knees to level his eyes with her, he offered her a smile. "Lastly, do you want orange juice or apple? Or should I just stick with the norm and get ginger ale for the ill?"
Nodding his head at her answer, Brad guided Poppy inside the truck through the small of her back and helped her settle into her seat. His arm brushed on her own and his eyebrows furrowed. For someone who can play with fire, she's a bit clammy. Glancing up to look at her, he smiled at her once again before going over to the driver seat to start the truck and put the A/C back on.
Before heading into the pharmacy, Brad warned Poppy not to mess with his truck, a homage of sorts to a running inside joke they both had a year ago.
He didn't take long inside the store, like all of the dispatches he had at the station, he was in and out. He got the juice that she wanted, some gatorade, a few crackers and a beer for himself.
There was a chill in the air as soon as he walked out of the store, the skies now dark as the stars slowly brightened up above him, the moon was behind the clouds somehow, and the streets were slowly filling up. Must be close to rush hour, he thought to himself as he walked towards his car.
Settling into his seat, Brad placed the bag on his lap and opened it before handing her her juice and opening the bag of crackers he bought. "Not really sure what's going on, but you look sick. You sound sick. And something sick just came out of your body too," he said to her as he shifted the gears of the truck and peeled out of the driveway. "I should bring you to a hospital."
Poppy had been sitting there, minding her own business, trying to go over everything that had happened to her the past few days, assessing just how bad she fucked up. Leave it to her, she realized, to be a constant fuck up. This wasn't what she had planned for herself after being let out of jail, those six months of pure torment and hellish environments. Sure, she began eating healthier, got into exercise, therapeutic writing, therapy in general, and got clean, but that did not really prep her for what was going to happen the moment she walked out of the prison.
While she didn't do "hard time", it was hard for her, very hard considering she always had issues with authoritative figures and structure. Some way or another, she managed without getting into fights or fucking up her chances at getting back into society as a normal person. But even Poppy had to face it, she was never normal, nor would she be. It had been a few months since her release, she had been doing good. She was living with her grandpa, had a job, was going to AA meetings, checked in with her probation officer, and was drug free. Well, was.
Sighing out, she pinched the bridge of her nose as she thought of how she did line after line of cocaine, how good it felt to be in her system again, the rush of energy she got, the high. Oh, it had been unlike anything she could remember, but as she started coming down, she realized what had happened fully and the consequences she was going to face if she didn't find a way out.
Furrowing her brow, she thought she heard a car approaching, but she didn't look behind her, simply wallowed in her wrong-doings and groaned to herself as her stomach grumbled. Feeling her body shake, her mouth water, her head pound, she thought of trying to get out of this mess, tried to find a way to speak to Brad again without things being weird. Surely he'd have questions, right?
The horn honking caused her to jump and she was quick to look to her left as her hair flipped over her shoulder. The man's face came to view as he spoke, his joke appreciated as it somehow resonated a familiar feeling within her, a good and safe feeling. Rising, she brushed off the back of her pants as she swallowed the pain back.
"What are you gonna do?" She questioned with a crooked grin. "Push me outta the truck?" Poppy climbed into the seat as the familiar smell wafted around her, enveloping her senses and causing another familiar feeling to stir as images flashed through her mind, images of times they had together and how she had tossed them all away for stupid reasons.
Clearing her throat, Poppy closed the door and was quick to put on the safety belt, pursing her lips as she tried to let the vomit crawling up her throat go back down. Perking up an eyebrow, she glanced over at her old friend and smiled.
"Long time, huh?"
Granted they didn't leave in the best of terms, he couldn't help but smile to himself as he heard her bite back, a faint nostalgia crawling over his body once again. He leaned back against his seat as he waited for her to get settled in, his thoughts quiet as his eyes stayed on her when she moved, taking in every detail, every shape and noticing the slight change on how she looked compared to a year ago. He pursed his lips into a line as he noticed how pale she looked, wondering if whether or not he should point it out or let Poppy tell him herself if there was something going on."I could," he said as he heard the click of the seatbelt locking. "I'm sure you'll survive."
Brad was quiet when she spoke, his eyes softening as he stared at the hand that was on the gear shift before putting it on drive. Furrowing his eyebrows, he let out a breath and turned down the volume of the radio, doing the best he can to avoid looking at her. As familiar as it was to have Poppy inside of his truck again, she also felt like a stranger to him. And it wasn't because of how their last moments together before this panned out, it was more so because of the events that had led to where he was today,— the accident that involved Robert which led to his death, the days and months he spent making sure Mandy was okay only to send her across the ocean to London and him slowly getting back to his parents after knowing that he was adopted— the moments that happened after they stopped talking that made him feel as if he, not Poppy, was the stranger.
Glancing sideways towards the passenger side of the truck, he quickly offered her a smile but it didn't reach his eyes, she wasn't looking any better and this bothered him. Clearing his throat, he darted his eyes between the road and his rear-view mirror before taking a detour and getting out the nearest exit.
He knew it was awkward, especially since he hadn't said anything else since she got into the car, and he knew that Poppy feels that it's a bit awkward too. Rubbing the back of his neck, he put the car to a stop as the light went red. Glancing at the light, he turned his body around to face her, his eyebrows furrowed once again. "I know, I'm very attractive," he said, only to regret it as soon as it came out of his mouth. A dry chuckle escaped his lips as he shook his head and brought his attention to her again. "Like I said, I know I'm very attractive," he said, "But more often than not, that's not really the reason why a girl loses her color and suddenly looks like an albino."
Before Poppy said anything, the light went green and Brad had to go back driving. He drove to the nearest Pharmacy, parking immediately and shutting the car off before unclicking the seat belt and turning his body around to face her. Offering her a smile, he nodded his head at her. "It has," he stated calmly. "It has been a long time. I know I could've answered that question earlier. It's just… this," he said as he gestured his hands between the both of them. "This. You texting me out of nowhere, me threatening to kick you out if you farted, you actually sitting there on the passenger seat while we listen to fucking what's his face on the radio… you…. you.. looking like you're about to throw up."
He went silent as the expression on his face suddenly turned into worry as he noticed how pale she was actually getting. Stepping out of the car, he jogged his way to the passenger door and opened her door. Unlocking the seatbelt, he turned her around to face him by his shoulders and bent down so that his eyes were leveled to hers. Questions. There were so many questions Brad wanted to ask Poppy but at that moment, the only question he wanted an answer too was "Are you okay?" he asked. "Pops, are you okay?"
Poppy sighed out as she stuffed her cell phone into her leather coat pocket, plopping down on the curb and crossing her arms to shield herself from the onslaught of pain she'd be feeling for the next few hours as she came off the drugs. How she ended up in this position was still unbeknownst to her, but she couldn't really blame anyone but herself, and that was the hardest thing to realize as she waited for an old friend to come save her.
Save her, she thought to herself as she scoffed, shaking her head as she looked over her shoulder to make sure nobody was nearing her to rob her or something. It had been a year, one year too long, since she had communicated with Bradley Thornton, the man whom she put through the ringer and back just because she had no control over her life. So much had happened in that year that she couldn't help but roll her eyes at the fact she was calling him up to bail her out, like she probably had done before.
If he knew the whole truth right from the get-go, she was sure he wouldn't dare offer her a ride, but luckily she had left him last on her list of people to ask forgiveness from due to her mandatory twelve-step program. Right now, she needed out of the neighborhood, needed to get the drugs out of her system, and pick up where she left off.
The sound of her stomach grumbling and cramping made her bow forward, placing her forehead on her knees as she hugged her body tighter. If she managed to keep herself from throwing up or shitting herself before he got there, she'd be thanking her lucky stars.
It felt like minutes became hours as Brad looked at his phone, the light slowly dimming away before going completely dark. He groaned as he tapped the cellphone on his head, confusion and questions riddling his mind as he made his way towards his locker to pack up his equipment before heading out to pick her up.
"Dude," his co-worker to the right said. "You look like you just saw a ghost."
"I feel like I did," Brad answered. If only his co-worker knew how close to home he was, maybe he wouldn't look at him the way he did at that moment. Picking up his duffel, he glanced at his phone once again, making sure that his brain wasn't playing with him like it did a couple months back when everything slowly got out of control. "I'll see you tomorrow, man."
The drive to Poppy's house wasn't that long, the red lights and the occasional pedestrians that walked by the only ones causing him delay. The speakers inside his truck blasted a random station from Pandora, the songs surprisingly up to his liking since he had no clue what the fuck he clicked when he got inside the truck. For a moment, he was glad that he couldn't hear anything else other than the song, glad that he couldn't hear the thoughts rummaging inside his head asking why in the world was he doing what he was doing.
At times, Brad would ask himself why he would do the things he did, wondered why it was so easy to think of others first before himself despite the things they did to him. He felt crazy at that moment, weird even, especially considering he's helping the woman he walked away from just because she knew what she wanted and that, what she wanted, wasn't him.
"Okay," he said, as he parked on the shoulder of the freeway. "Okay, now you have to shut up because you sound like a fucking pussy."
A couple of songs later and Brad soon found himself on Poppy's neighborhood, the torn down houses still looking as torn down as they used to, mutants were still pushing shopping carts filled with random stuff. It briefly gave him a sense of nostalgia. The last time he was here was a year ago and nothing changed. I wonder if she changed, he thought to himself as he turned the corner to her street.
His fingers tapped against the steering wheel as he slowed down to where she said she would be. True enough, she was there. Her back was facing him as he put on the breaks and stopped, his fingers tapping more anxiously than it did just a couple of seconds ago. He didn't know why he stopped, didn't know why he suddenly put the gears on reverse and slowly let his foot off the break. Groaning, he stopped the car once again and leaned his head against the steering wheel and let out a sigh.
"For crying out loud," he mumbled as he put the gears back on drive and slowly inched his way to where Poppy was. He honked once to get her attention and put a smile on his face, waving once before reaching over the passenger door to open it. "My warning still stands. You fucking fart in my car, I'm kicking you out."

HDMI or VGA? my comparisons as well.
Hello I recently purchased two hdmi cables. I have an OLD lcd vizio that i thought if I change from component to hdmi it will take off overscan on my xbox360. While the pictures looks better than component , because the lcd t.v is so old (2006) it has no feature to take off overscan like many new HDTV's do (Fit to screen, dot by dot,etc..) it still gets overscanned
However in my other HDTV a samsung plasma 42'' It allows to take off overscan and using an hdmi cable with dvd player or connecting Windows 7 laptop to HDTV there is NO problems and works fine
Old LCD still overscanns with hdmi cable but What i want to ask is this.
When TV & PC are hooked up (hdmi) I can take off the overscann by reducing the laptops resolution to 1280x720 when its 1336x768 natively AND going into the Intel graphics cards display settings, clicking on HDtv monitor and changing the aspect ratio from 100 horizontal and vertical to 30 x 30. wtf? lol
This lowering resolution results in less detailed fonts and words in the laptop, almost fuzzy like compared to switching back to normal (maybe other things?). In the T.V it looks fine from what i can tell but its native resolution is ALSO 1336X768.
DO I technically lose quality when watching videos? I tested 720p videos and lower, i really can't tell...
When doing PC to HDTV with vga, i get no overscan or less font detail. Should i stick with the vga cable for the old LCD tv?? is it as good as hdmi video wise?
HDTV IS ----http://www.vizio.com/l32hdtv10a.html#support

I also have a vizio tv,same year as yours but different model, I had same problem with hdmi,but not only overscan problems, but also blurry text. I ended up staying with VGA connection. I did not notice any difference.
I watch netflix video with the vga and it looks great
|My System Specs
|04 Jun 2011
you can use the PC to take off overscan settings, depending on your hardware, but you need to look in your graphics control panel for HDTV scaling options, for example, Nvidia control panel has an option toscale the monitor resolution with 4 handy arrows on each corner of the screen which you can manually line up to suit the size of the TV.

|04 Jun 2011
thanks for your info dskiller, and MrNeeds Yes like i said that's what I did. In my laptop the Grahpics display panel is Intel and when i click monitor then Aspect Ratio options I can i guess scale the horz. and vert. lines from 100 100 to 30 30 and fix overscan.
Wonder though since i lower resolution to 1280x720(yes i know thats technically 720p)
from both PC and old TV's 1366x768 I lose video quality in HDMI. I notice that text looks blurred in the laptop after.
my longer HDMI would be more convenient than a vga cable if there is no loss of quality.
|My System Specs
|15 Jun 2011
^^^Sorry to bring this up again but, Mr.Needs do you know if i will lose picture quality on a 720p video thats running on a laptop that lowered its native/recommended resolution to 1280x720 on both laptop and hdtv?
sounds like it wont be i 'm not sure.

yea i right after i wrote my previous post i realized clone display is not best when hooked up to a tv. especially with a laptops graphics card.

Dan Dakich is best known as an ESPN college hoops analyst, but occasionally he dabbles in other things, like breaking MLB news. Saturday Dakich scooped everyone by announcing on-air during an Indiana-Notre Dame game that the Cubs had re-signed pitcher Jeff Samardzija for $55 million. Take that Jayson Stark!
The report sent baseball insiders scrambling for their cell phones. Sources were contacted. Heated conversations ensued. And when the dust had settled?
Pretty much everyone in the legit baseball reporting world had come to the conclusion that Dan Dakich is full of beans.
The Samardzija re-signing report has now been pretty definitively shot down. So where did Dakich get the information from? It's hard to say.
Dakich probably knows some people from Notre Dame, being an Indiana guy. Samardzija went to Notre Dame. Maybe some guy Dakich knows at Notre Dame fed him a piece of information. And Dakich decided to run with it.
Or maybe Dakich is drunk. Or perhaps all those years hanging out with Bobby Knight destroyed his sense of reality.
Whatever might be going on with Dakich's brain cells, it's fairly obvious that Dakich has no idea what he's talking about when it comes to offseason baseball news. So we should probably pay zero attention to him from now on when he talks baseball.
Actually, let's pay zero attention to Dakich all the time. Yeah. Better.

It took forever to load pictures to my profile today. Dogster kept refusing the pictures and I had to keep trying to load them. I guess Dogster is having fleas again. It also took a long time to load pictures to Charlie and Toto profiles too.

Nine years ago today you joined the family. You were about 3 1/2 months old. Maggie died just a few days before and I was not planning to get another dog right away, but one of my friends was giving away puppies and I fell in love with you at first sight. I still love you so much Abbie.

Mommy took Charlie and Toto somewhere without me, I really showed my displeasure when they got home! I let mommy know exactly had upset I was. I was going to take my madness out on Charlie, but mommy made me go laid down my bed instead. She told me that if was good I will get a treat. After I calmed down I got dinner and then I got my treat. I am still giving mommy my mad look.

I woke mommy up about 2:30 in the morning and before mommy could get me outside, I squatted and peed in on the carpet. Mommy was very upset with me. It took her a while to clean up the carpet and then she washed the rags she used to clean up my mess. Mommy had to go back to Walmart after work to get more carpet cleaner since the carpet still had a bad smell. Mommy knows it is not an infection since when I have one, I have to go outside all the time and since I am using the bathroom as normal she thinks I was just did it for spite. I have been known to do that.

November 12, 1969: An American journalist breaks the story of the My Lai Massacre.
When it took place in March of 1968, the My Lai massacre, which resulted in the death of at least 400 civilians, went unnoticed by the American public. On March 16, American soldiers entered the village of Son My (which contained the My Lai and My Khe hamlets) expecting to engage Viet Cong fighters directly there; in fact, the company's commanding officer was quoted as telling his men: "They're all V.C., now go and get them". The inexperienced soldiers found no evidence of any enemy fighters in the village. Instead of moving on, they began rounding up (unarmed) civilians and shooting them, indiscriminately, brutally - quickly. By the end of the day, the soldiers had finished off (and in some cases tortured or raped) between 347 and 504 civilians. Only one American was injured.
The Americans who attempted to stop the atrocities - Hugh Thompson, Jr. and his helicopter crew - were denounced by some government officials as traitors; when the My Lai Massacre was revealed to the public, the three men received hate mail and death threats, although all three later received the Soldier's Medal for their actions, which included saving several villagers.
Conversely, the conviction and sentence of 2nd Lt. William Calley, who reportedly personally took it upon himself to mow down civilians with a machine gun, was received with anger by the American public. Flags across the country were flown at half-mast in his honor, and more than one state legislature requested clemency on his behalf. Still, when Seymour Hersh broke the story of the massacre on November 12, 1968 in a report for which he received a Pulitzer Prize, American anti-war sentiment reached new heights, and outrage over the massacre and subsequent cover-up was not only domestic but international as well. In 1970, the United States Army charged over a dozen officers in connection with the massacre, but in the end, only William Calley was convicted - even Calley's sentence was reduced from life in prison to three years under house arrest. Senior army officials reasoned that Calley had believed that he had simply been "following orders"…
Most photographs of the event were taken by Ronald Haeberle; some of them can be viewed here.

It's purpose is to inform. There is no order. Everything is put as it comes to my mind or as I learn it.
The boys at Napoleon's school used to tease him, and call him 'la paille au nez' which became his nickname at Brienne.
It means "straw up his nose", but its origin is a fanciful rearrangement of Napoléon => Lopaloné => La paille au nez.
A peasant coming from some tiny off-shore island might well be seen as still having straw in his hair or elsewhere: being a hayseed.

Notre Dame is hopeful that this recruiting week will be one to remember. Quarterback Travis Waller, Linebacker Justin Hilliard, Defensive End Jashon Cornell and Wide Receiver Miles Boykin will be announcing their college intentions this week. Between July 1st and July 3rd, Notre Dame could nearly close out the class of 2015.
However, it does not appear like that will happen for the Fighting Irish.
Hilliard and Cornell have been rumored to be a package deal in this recruiting class. The two players are deciding between nearly the exact same schools. With Cornell moving his announcement to the same time as Hilliard's, it would appear that the Ohio State Buckeyes are probably in a great position to land both of the big time recruits.
There is no doubt that Hilliard is deciding between the Fighting Irish and Buckeyes. He recently visited both schools during the weekend of June 20th. With the addition of Cornell's announcement, it seems like that both players will choose the Buckeyes. Cornell has not visited Notre Dame since April 10th.
Hilliard is the 14th best player in the 2015 class. Cornell is the 32 best overall player in the 2015 class.
As for a possible Quarterback to Wide Receiver combination in Waller and Boykin, this seems unlikely as well. Waller has yet to visit Notre Dame and has long favored Oregon. Boykin may be the only commitment that Notre Dame receives in the first week of July.
Final Predictions:
- Travis Waller – Oregon Ducks
- Justin Hilliard – Ohio State Buckeyes
- Jashon Cornell – Ohio State Buckeyes
- Miles Boykin – Notre Dame Fighting Irish

Remember Me?
Cheap, Though and Easy to use Signal processor by DOD
Ease Of Use
When I got it no instruction manuals were included only warranty cards etc. This rugged metal box is just what I wanted to separate my metal Distortion signal from the rest of my Pedal chain. The 4 control knobs controls the mount of signal passing through it almost like a volume control. I'm using a Boss AB 2 in front of it which select My pedal settings which share a BBE Sonic Stomp. Well that's just my set up, this device can be use on any sound reinforcement set ups eg mics, amps etc...
Out of the 4 knobs I'm only using 2 of them, its really effective on my settings, it doesn't suck out your tones and its completely controllable, and as its a passive device , no batteries or adapter is use just plug and play!! Now, my pedal board are organized in terms of signals, this device is very handy
Its built with A though die cast metal, like other good pedals. I would buy this again if something were to happen to it..
Liked about it
Its cheap,US made and easy to use
Didn't like
Maybe indicator led light on each control knobs would be great

"True Game" by Rime x Revok x AugorJuxtapoz // Monday, 30 Mar 2009
The Movement has struck the street of Los Angeles again. "Painted the other night in Hollywood, this collaboration features: Rime (Juxtapoz #78) on panther detail, Revok (Juxtapoz #78) on letters, and Augor (Juxtapoz #99) going for it with an eagle headed snake," graf legend Revok writes us.
"This chapter of the movement titled True Game, was inspired by the neighborhood's resident tattoo legend; the panther and eagle/snake/dragon thing being obvious homages to the tattoo tradition."

The look the TEMPTU PRO Team created backstage for the Fall 2011 Odilon show, was definitely one of the most avant-garde looks we've created for New York Fashion Week. Now here's your chance to learn how to recreate the look yourself!
We absolutely love supermodel Samantha Gradoville's look in this shoot with for Numéro magazine. Makeup artist Maud Laceppe created a light, whimsical look that evokes the light feelings of springtime, while remaining totally relevant for this season's wintry trends. You can recreate this dreamy look using TEMPTU PRO's S/B airbrush makeup.
Here are TEMPTU PRO's Top 5 Tattoo Coverage Tips:

Insider knowledge: Springbank 10 Year Old 35cl whisky is named whisky by virtue of the fact it's from Scotland. If distilled in America the spelling would be Springbank 10 Year Old 35cl whiskey, as opposed to whisky.
The nose is big-bodied with oaked aridity. The peat is present and quite pungent with an earthen rootiness. Notes of exotic fruits and a hint of salinity. The palate is full-bodied with a good helping of cereal sweetness. There is a richness to the peat, with a dark nuttiness and whirling smoke. The finish is long and crisp with a coastal tang and a trailing peat with oaked dryness.

Convert Pages 3 full underlines to per-word underlines
If this meets your need, bravo! However, the question arises as to why you would want to have per-word underlines in the first place. Titles are underlined (rather than made bold, italic, samll caps or otherwise) as another way of emphasizing them. It is the title as a syntagm and not the individual words that are emphasized. From the software point of view, per-word underlines should NOT, of course, be arbitraily changed to something else.
Convert Pages 3 full underlines to per-word underlines
The problem is that Page 3 changed a lot of stuff on the texts I had created using previous versions. For example: several text cells containing numbers in tables were converted to numbers - example: 1e-2 was converted to 0.01, changing the meaning of what I have written (in this example I was not talking about "e" raised to -2). Instead of keeping the text as it was, Pages decided to change stuff, changing what I had written. So, the book had to be twice revised.

Witness the latest public relations trap for a loose-lipped Indian politician, courtesy of the Deccan Chronicle:
BSP MP Rajpal Saini has now launched a tirade against mobile phones and has publicly declared that women and children do not need mobile phones… "Why do housewives and school going girls need mobiles? It encourages them to make futile small talk and get connected with people outside their homes."
Mobile phones distract women, Saini said, and offer nothing useful for them, the Chronicle reported.
Saini did not say how Indian society would benefit from confiscating women's mobile phones, but the context is wide and deep. Many more Indian women than ever before hold jobs, wear what they like, associate with whom they want and go out alone — and they talk on the phone. Meanwhile, many men cannot understand why this should happen during their lives. They have a hard time thinking of independence without the implication that its evil twin is sexual promiscuity. To them, independence leads to sex, which leads to rape, which leads to sullied family honour — and that is not just a quaint idea for much of the nation.
And that's where the mobile phone confiscation idea comes. As the Chronicle notes, a Khap panchayat — or group of village elders — in Baghpat earlier this year banned women under 40 years of age from using mobile phones. When you're on a mobile, you can go anywhere and say what you like in privacy to whomever you want. If you want control of your family, you don't want this.

Mind Juice Media today announces that their popular iOS game, Unicorn Rush, which was previously $0.99, is now Free to Play. The latest version of the game is now available for download at no cost from the iTunes App Store. Since its release a few months ago, Unicorn Rush has been hailed as a magical and engaging experience that is much more than just another running game.
Unicorn Rush surrounds the player in a graphically stunning twilight world where they control the Unicorn with responsive touch controls. Guide the Unicorn across the night sky from one floating island to the next, and try to avoid plummeting into the icy waters below.
There are rocks and crystals to avoid or shoot with magic fireballs, magic mushrooms to collect, which cast powerful spells, and quests to complete which permanently increase the player's score multiplier.
Players collect Unicoins as they play, which can be used to unlock new Unicorn characters, extra music tracks and other surprises. Players can also earn free Unicoins just by telling their friends about Unicorn Rush on Twitter and Facebook.
Mind Juice is currently working on a major update for Unicorn Rush that includes new levels, as well as support for the larger screens on the new iPhone 5 and the 5th generation iPod touch. The update is expected to be released later this month.
Unicorn Rush 1.0 is currently Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

The Bible's Source—God or Man?
In a previous post we discussed the essence of the Bible; in this post, we'll look at the source of the Bible.
Where did the Bible come from? Are its words simply religious lore, written down by people over the centuries? Are they the product of the thoughts or imaginations of men? Why do we call the Bible the Word of God?
Since our faith is based on this book, it's crucial for us to know its source.
Knowing the source is critical
We definitely want to know where our drinking water comes from. If we know it comes from a pure source, we're confident we can drink it without fear. Similarly, we trust certain news reports if we believe the reporters are reliable and their facts are checked.
Knowing the source of something helps us gauge its trustworthiness. Should we value it? Should we disregard it? Is it reliable? So much depends on the source.
What is the source of the Bible?
Throughout the ages, many have written down their thoughts, observations, and philosophies on life. But what about the Bible? Is it merely a collection of the thoughts, observations, and philosophies of pious men about God?
The apostle Peter says this: "For no prophecy was ever borne by the will of man, but men spoke from God while being borne by the Holy Spirit" (2 Pet. 1:21). Even if a person wanted to write something for or about God, all mankind is fallen, and the mind of man is darkened and limited.
Consider the true and profound words in the Scriptures. At times they defy our expectations by providing indescribable comfort or piercing light concerning our inner condition. Could any fallen person write such words?
Peter explains that although the Scriptures were written through men, these men spoke from God. The source of the Bible is God, not men.
How did these words get to us from God?
Let's take a look at how note 2 of 2 Peter 1:21 in the New Testament Recovery Version explains this verse:
"No prophecy was ever borne by the will of man. Man's will, desire, and wish, with his thought and exposition, were not the source from which any prophecy came; the source was God by whose Holy Spirit men were borne, as a ship is borne by the wind, to speak out the will, desire, and wish of God."
If you've ever watched a boat sailing on the water, you've seen its sails catch the wind. It moves along by that wind, not by its own power. This picture demonstrates where the Bible comes from. Just as a boat is moved by the wind, certain men were borne, or carried along, by the Holy Spirit. By this Spirit these men could then speak or write down the will, desire, and wish of God.
So the words of the Bible didn't originate from man's own mind. But how did this "being borne" happen?
The Holy Spirit and the human spirit
It's important to see that God created human beings not only with a mind but also with an inward part that's actually deeper than the mind. The Bible tells us that God formed "the spirit of man within him" (Zech. 12:1). The "spirit of man" is a person's deepest part. Just as our physical eyes are our seeing organ, the human spirit is the inward organ by which we can contact and receive God.
John 4:24 says, "God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit." The "Spirit" refers to the divine Spirit and the "spirit" refers to the human spirit. With the human spirit, human beings can fellowship with God, who is Spirit.
As certain men were in fellowship with God in their spirit, they were borne, or carried along, by the Holy Spirit to write down the words of God. The Scriptures are God's words, and they are holy because their source is God. They came to us from men who were borne by the Holy Spirit to speak or write down words from God.
It's important for us to know the Bible's source
Without understanding that God Himself is the source of the Bible, we won't have a solid foundation to stand on. Our faith rests on the Bible. For us to have confidence in this book, we need to be clear that God is the source.
In our daily environment we interact with people who don't believe in God or who don't value the Bible's words as being from God. At work, in school, on television, in movies—nearly everywhere we look—we encounter things and people that may make us question the Bible. And when we're unsure about the Bible, our faith can be shaken.
However, if we're clear that God is the source of the Bible, we'll know it's words are trustworthy, true, and pure because God is trustworthy, true, and pure. We'll have confidence in the Bible, and our faith will be nourished by its words. His Word can sustain us in all situations, guide us to know God today, and be depended on for all eternity.
Because we know the source of the Bible is God Himself, we can trust in the Word of God wholeheartedly, without reservation or doubt. By trusting in and relying on the Bible, we will come to know our Lord more and more deeply both in this book and in our lives.

Praise the Lord for His Word! It is extremely important for Christians to trust the source of the Word because the Bible is the foundation of our faith. We come to believe in God through the Spiritual Word. God is Spirit and his word is spirit and life (John 6.63). Faith comes out of hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ (Rom.10.17). Once saved through faith we continue in the saving process, the transformation by feeding on the Word for life and growth. (John6.57). We are also sanctified by the Word (John 17.17). We communicate with fellow Christians with and through the Word (Col.3.16). Most of all, the Word of God says that the Word is God Himself (John 1.1). If a Christian does not trust in the source of the Bible, the Word of God he or she will not be able to live the Christian life to the full. He or she will treat the Bible as any other reference book and will miss the Life who is God Himself. They will also fail to know the organ by which they need to communicate with God, the human spirit (Zech.12.1)and exercise it to communicate with God (John 4.24). May the Lord give wisdom and revelation to all believers to realise that He Himself is the source of His Word.
Having recently received my Recovery NT Bible, I find it quite refreshing. I have read other translations, but this one is not only the best, but is most informative as well. Keep up the good work. I love your Bible Study as well. Jesus is Lord!
Powerful message!! The Bible – the Word of God says, "man SHALL NOT LIVE by
bread alone but by EVERY word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." Simply put, man ceases to exist without the Word of God. The Word makes it possible for us to live, move and have our being. Jesus says, "I am The Way, The Truth and The Life; no man cometh unto the Father but by me." There is no getting around this truth. Jesus was the Word made flesh, who makes it possible for us to live and have relationship with the Father. There is no life outside of Christ and no meaningful living outside the Will of God. Thank God for the Holy Spirit that brings all things to our remembrance. To God be the glory!!
Glory and honor to our divine God in three persons. God is the greatest wonder of all. And he has plans for his creation that humans have the obligation to seek it and be informed. In this Era and dispensation, people have from God 26 letters and one Book of revelation of Jesus Christ, which contain the messages that can make us wise to obtain the salvation faith that is the new testament of God to mankind. God made it simple: letters and the book with much symbolism and prophesies for those who love to study the word and do discoveries of the super natural. All these in association with the prophesies of the old testament about God's plans developing through the centuries and recorded in the 39 books of the old testament represent God's effort to save all those who care about the creator. Praise God for his extraordinary gifts to mankind.
In a time where Churchs just want your money to build bigger Churchs, its nice to find someone who truly cares about spreading the words of the Lord. My Church turned me down for help getting me a pair of glasses, I have Lupus. I was losing my faith, this has restored most of it, thank your for truly caring and sending out these books, otherwise I would not be able to get them.
Praise the Lord,

I graduated from the National Scholarship for Service Cyber Corps Program at the University of Tulsa. UTulsa was one
of the original 7 universities selected to host a DoD/NSF funded bachelors and masters level program designed to
educate students in Information Security. If you get into this program, depending on the school you attend, you will
have your: tuition/books/rent/some bills/monthly stipdend paid for to go to school. Once your degree is complete, you
work for the gov't for the time you were in school. In other words, say you get into Carnegie Melon, (an original SFS
Info Sec school), and receive your masters in 2 years. From there, you work for the gov't for 2 years, then you're
done. That's a 100K plus education, for just a couple of years work for the gov't...which hasn't been so bad.
The courses offered at UTulsa when I attended were: Computer & Network Forensics, Penetration Testing and
Vulnerability Analysis, Secure System Administration and Certification, Network Security, Secure E-Commerce, Enterprise
Security Management, Risk Management for Information Systems, etc.

We love this recipe!! We make these gluten free, using arrowroot cookies, instead of wafers. 16 ounces of cookies is equal to four cups ground. And, I measure about four ounces of pecans for one cup ground. If you can't roll them right away, add a touch more bourbon, other wise they'll dry out. www.itssewyou8.etsy.com
I'm giving this recipe 4 forks for the incredible ease of making it as well as the yummy taste. I love bourbon, so these were right up my alley. Didn't add the sugar to the cookie mix, just used it to roll. I think they would be way too sweet with 1 cup of sugar in them. Left them out dry for most of the day then rolled in sugar. Rolled them in sugar again a few days later before putting them in my cookie baskets. Yum, yum, yummy.
These were a HUGE hit at a company Christmas get-together. Everyone under the sun asked me for my recipe! I added 4 T of cocoa to the mix. Did it all in the food processor. If it is a little dry when you're ready to roll...add a little more bourbon. Couldn't hurt.
Recipe doesn't say to reserve the confectioner's sugar. Also the mixture is too dry to shape into balls. Comparing similar recipes indicates the amout of vanilla wafers is too large.
family has made these for years, with the addition of cocoa (takes the edge off the bourbon, i think), and friends ask for them every holiday. great eating, great gifts, easy to make
Have been making these for 40 years and lost my recipe. Agree with the addition of the cocoa. Easier to make if you put all of the dry ingredients into a food processor and let it do the mixing. Also easier if you mix the white syrup and bourbon thoroughly before adding to the dry mixture. Better if you roll into balls and let sit out for 24 hours before rolling in powdered sugar. These keep in airtight tins for several months. In fact, they need to ripen for at least six weeks.
These are super easy, great as part of a holiday treat basket. My only warning is that they taste like bourbon, so if you aren't a fan, these aren't for you. Keeping them in the fridge or freezer for a week or more helped tone down the alcohol flavor, and made these great for snacking on as a sweet treat.
