Broncos add Knighton, Bradley
Englewood, CO (Sports Network) - The Denver Broncos brought in two newcomers to the defensive side of the ball during Wednesday's second day of free agency, with the defending AFC West champs striking deals with tackle Terrance Knighton and linebacker Stewart Bradley.
Knighton, formerly of the Jacksonville Jaguars, agreed to a two-year contract, while the ex-Arizona Cardinal Bradley was signed for one year.
A 49-game starter during his four-year tenure with the Jaguars, Knighton recorded 32 tackles and two sacks while finishing second on the team with 17 quarterback pressures last season. The 330-pound plugger will be reunited with current Broncos defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio, Knighton's head coach during the Temple product's first three seasons in the league.
Knighton is expected to start alongside returnee Kevin Vickerson, whom the Broncos re-signed on Tuesday, on the interior line.
Bradley was released by the Cardinals on Mar. 1 following a disappointing two- year stint with the club in which the 29-year-old registered just 42 tackles and started only one of 32 games.
The six-year pro made 28 starts for Philadelphia between 2008-10, however, and accumulated 108 tackles, one interception and one sack as an Eagle in 2008 before missing the entire following season due to a torn ACL.

HELP! I need to wow my boyfriend
- h
- hungryabbey Oct 27, 2007 07:04 PM
ah my boyfriends birthday is coming and I need a great, romantic restaurant to take him to.. he;s always treating me to amazing, expensive dinners (one of our more recent experiences was at susur) and now I really have to make it up to him, so what would be a good romantic dinner destination for two early 20 year olds. I would probably prefer to stay away from italian only because hes been in italy for the past 3 weeks and is probably a bit sick of it
Thanks in advance!!
Romance can come from many sources. Sometimes a really great room can do it, sometimes amazing food will carry the day. Another variable is quiet, efficient service versus the extremely knowledgeable who can build up amazing anticipation. Here are some recommendations with good to great food, and some adjectives to hopefull give you some intimation of experience.
Lai Toh Heen - ask for the front section on the bar side. Unobtrusive efficient service in a beautiful room with exotic selections. 150 - 200 per couple for a good feast with wine
Scaramouche - ask for a view table. Knowledgeable efficient service, beautifully prepared, though not cutting edge food. 200 - 300
Cava - very knowledgeable, friendly with an edge service. Many times I've just described my mood and said feed me; can't recall a disappointment (but set the ground rules on ranges, as they may upsell). 150 - 250
93 Harbord - Beautiful room, very calm service, knowledgeable, probably a quiet atmosphere. Food is more off the beaten track middle eastern. 100 - 150
Joso's - for the shear experience. The next generation is carrying on very well.
For any of these places, you'll get more mileage if you explain in advance that you want to create an experience/occasion as well as have a meal. Joso's is usually good for a glass of sparkling in these situations. Enjoy!
Perhaps still too mediterranean... but what about Chiado? Certainly high end (mains top at $45, specials might be more), a relaxed elegance. impeccable food (especially if you enjoy seafood). impeccable service. It really is one of my favourite places in the city. It also has a great wine list (I might be mistaken, but I think that Wine Spectator said it had the best selection of Portuguese wines in North America), but, as expensive as it is (and it is), the staff do not try to "up sell" you on the wine. Their selections, in my experience, have always been rational.
As to being in your early 20s, I wouldn't worry about that. They're professionals, and the older clientele tend to be a bit on the casual (yet elegant/nice) side anyway. I first went in my mid 20s, and now early 40s, and honestly, I've noticed no difference in the quality of service.
If you can, since it is a special night, try to arrange Carlos to wait your table. He works, I think, only Friday evenings now. He's a great guy, knows his stuff intimately, and if you don't know something and have to ask (as I did), he's just enthusiastic about sharing his knowledge. No condescension. Just interest and enthusiasm.
re: hungry_pangolin
I have always had a good time at Lolita's Lust on the Danforth, right near Carlaw on the south side. Because there are so many little rooms, sometimes you can request privacy, and they have and excellent wine and menu selection. The only thing that I don't like is the tacky sayings that scroll by on the wall, but it's small enough to ignore it, or lame enough to have a laugh about.
excellent recomendations guys! I will look into each one.. those are all places Ive considered, the trick is to make sure I pick a place he hasnt already been so Ill need to do some investigating. Ill let you know what I go with, and any more feedback/suggestions would be great as well!
re: hungryabbey
My boyfriend and I went to Cava last night and, frankly, weren't as wowed with the food as we expected to be. Also, I wouldn't describe the atmosphere as romantic. I'd recommend Amuse Bouche. Its atmosphere is more romantic and the food is really outstanding. We had the tasting menu and weren't disappointed.
- I only had a taste of Colborne Lane (app and cocktail), but I'm eager to go back for more. It was written up in Bon Appetit for October, so may be quite busy now. If you're looking for romance, I would suggest asking not to be seated at the communal table (unless, of course, you find that romantic... I wouldn't!). www.colbornelane.com
- Lucien looks gorgeous, and while I haven't been, I've always enjoyed Scott Woods' cooking elsewhere. Also, it's new enough that your boyfriend probably hasn't been either. Do note that one poster found it was a little loud. www.lucienrestaurant.com
- I think Amuse-Bouche is very romantic... not as fancy as Susur or Scaramouche, but more dark and intimate, boite-y kind of romantic. www.amuseboucherestaurant.com
Please do let us know where you end up...
re: Charles Yu
I'd have to agree. Scaramouche! I'm in my early twenties and the staff were so delightful - they seemed to be even friendlier than usual as they could tell it was a special night out.
so Ive been looking at menus and websites and so far I think Ive narrowed it down to scaramouche (personally have always wanted to go, maybe a little selfish, but I am paying for the meal haha), Colborne Lane, Lucien and Amuse Bouche.. but a question about Colborne lane- Rabbit, you mentioned they are communal tables.. is it a problem to ask for a single? are there many of them? because we certainly dont like to feel squished.. I think thats why I enjoyed susur so much was because we have a nice big booth to ourselves and didnt even notice everyone else around us
re: hungryabbey
Colborne Lane has quite a few of single tables and they are actually quite big, however there is no table cloth if that's ok with you on the romantic factor. I was seating at a single table once near the corner with a big window at the back of our table, which is quite nice, may be you can ask to reserve that. Colborne Lane has a more casual atmosphere than Scaramouche.
If you want to WOW him and you have been to most places in the city including Sursur I think you will have a tough time doing it. Why not try something like Harvest Restaurant in Picton (about 2 hours east of Toronto) www.harvestrestaurant.ca. It is an excellent restaurant and you can make a day of it and explore the area also which is beautiful. Then get a B&B for the night. The entire event would cost about $300 but I am sure he is worth it.
re: RJTiger
This sounds like a great idea. I was going to suggest something out of town, but I didn't know any top-notch restaurants. If he's well-aware of the Toronto restaurants cene, impressing him will be difficult.
re: RJTiger
hm that is definetly an option.. I was considering taking him out of town... OH, one stipulation I just remembered that will likley narrow things down considerably.. its a sunday :S.. are the options I am considering open on sunday?
re: hungryabbey
DAMN! all 4 of the restaurants at the top of my list are closed on sunday. alright, time to rethink..
re: hungryabbey
Sunday....Lai Toh Heen might still be open. Zucca definitely is.
Out of town might work better for the Sunday option. Langdon Hall is about an hour west of town, just south of 401, and has an amazing kitchen, most rooms with fireplaces. Dinner, accomodation could push 400. Though you could bring wine and order into room to cut that down a bit.
re: hungryabbey
Oh dear - I went through the same thing that you did last month. Sundays mean slim pickings.
Splendido is still open. There's also the option of a lovely brunch at the Gallery Grill at Hart House on the U of T campus.
re: Yum2MyTum
Maybe dim sum at Lai Wah Heen... definitely upscale, and something different? Although it's not that romantique...
re: Yum2MyTum
Splendido has always looked amazing, now Im looking at the menu and it has 1st, 2nd ad 3rd courses and thenalso dessert.. but no prices.. can anyone tell me approx how much their courses run? Im would do the tasting menu but I think Im going to have a special cake made for him for us to have later, so we'll skip dessert, also how are portions? like would be it necessary to have all 3 courses?
re: hungryabbey
Their 3 course Table d'Hote is $103 ( $116 with dessert ). Any special requests, just talk to Yannick the owner ahead of time. He is most friendly and accomadating!
Wow is always subjective, and depends on what else you might be planning that is in the non-food playground. This thread started out on the basis of an evening, then there were some useful suggestions with the out of town/Sunday potential limitations.
Brunch can lead to many interesting conclusions on a Sunday. There are a number of cool brunches in the city, ranging from the ornate and delicious Lai Wah Heen, to casual jazz at Revival or Free Times (sometimes the Pilot does a jazz brunch on Sunday), which could be followed by a captivating cocktail at the top of the Park Hyatt in front of the fireplace. The rest of the agenda might move to a different board that Chow.com might not have conceived of yet. Well-fed langour? Perusal of the Bata museum stiletto collection?
re: hungryabbey
Often overlooked on this board is Celestin.
The staff bend over backwards to please.
Had dinner there this week, with very specific requests for our guests.
They, as well as the food were wonderful.
My lobster main with chanterelles and sweetbreads, was "wow".
re: LemonLauren
we went to the Globe. It isnt the most amazing restaurant we've been to, but honestly, it was perfect and we had an amazing time. Heres my review:
re: hungryabbey
Sounds like a great meal! I wish I had a boyfriend like yours when I was in my early 20's. A man who loves good food and treats his girlfriend to high-end dinners? Can't be beat.
re: merlot143
ahaha yes I am a very lucky girl
wow lol... this is way over my head man. I'm one of those guys who is not too obsessed with the whole decor and fancy shmansy aspects when dining out.
Even if my GF is treating ME. I mean, what I personally look for in a restaurant 1st and is= if the food is authentic and tasty. Mom and Pop like even...
2nd thing is that the place provides a safe and comfortable place to dine and socialize. Not too much rush.
I just hate having to go to those "high end" restaurants where everybody tries to out dress the other person, out pays the other person, out tips the other person, and pretty much out do the other person. Just not me you know. I'm not there to impress the world and project an image of perceived class.
I just want good food, comfortable/safe environment, and not too much fuss.
I mean, whats the point if the decor and design is all good, when the food is bland or has no content?
Not sure if your BF is like me hehe... Not even sure if I am among a minority... but I'm just saying from my perspective... What it really depends on is your BF's personality.
re: Mike Tyson
I hear you loud and clear and totally understand. Some of those "high end" restaurants act plain snotty to those who aren't "hip" enough, (eg the right clothes, accessories etc.). Though I must admit, hubby and I are often quite amused watching people trying to impress others at these establishments, especially those on first dates.
Now that's said, I'd like to hear your favs for good dining in a non-flashy, but nice environment?
re: mrsleny
lol I just like good food haha. As long as the establishment doesn't have booze hounds or druggies hanging out, I'm fine.
P.S I'm really into home cooked style Vietnamese food, Caribbean foods, Thai places (something a bit more authentic than Salad King though), that sort of stuff.
If I can think of some places, I'll let you know in the future. Right now I can't think of any for some reason.
re: Mike Tyson
Mike, I agree and I think my bf would agree totally with you. he HATES showing off, and hates ppl who show off themselves. However, when he has impressed me on numerous occasions with beautiful dinners, I figured it was time I at least gave a modest attempt at a payback for his birthday at a restaurant that was a bit more for a special occasion. Dont get me wrong, we love good food even if its at a little sushi place hidden away and costs us 25$ for the two of us, but a birthday deserves something more (in my opinion and in our situation)
re: hungryabbey
True true.

Utah football: Utah defense has new faces, same philosophy
Utes football » Cohesiveness will help team overcome injuries, coaches say.
By Lya Wodraska
| The Salt Lake Tribune
First Published Apr 16 2013 11:39 am
Last Updated Jul 07 2013 11:33 pm
Utah senior Brian Blechen spent the majority of Utah's recent spring practice trudging around and around the field with a big rock in his hands and a slightly disgusted look on his face.
No doubt, spring ball hasn't been much fun for Blechen, or for many of the predicted starters.
While the offense is near full strength, many of the projected starters have been sidelined with injuries, resulting in sometimes unconventional workouts, such as the one Blechen endured.
Blechen (tendinitis), defensive ends Trevor Reilly (knee), Nate Orchard (back) and Jason Whittingham (shoulder) and defensive back Wykie Freeman (knee) are just a few of the defensive players sidelined by injuries.
On the field, the defensive lineup has been a mishmash of younger players and backups.
The good news is all of them are expected to be at full strength by August. Despite the gaping holes, Utah's coaches aren't worried the starters' absences will hurt Utah's defensive cohesiveness.
If anything, the Utes are confident their defense will be as strong as always, no matter who suits up and who plays where.
As much inconsistency as the offense has had over recent seasons, Utah's defense has benefited from little changeover, contributing to the confidence defensive coordinator Kalani Sitake feels in his unit.
"Coach [Morgan] Scalley and I have been on the team a long time and we've worked well together, and coach Whittingham started this so having that consistency and how we work together has been important," Sitake said. "The last couple of years we've been able to break in safeties, corners and defensive ends and now we have the younger guys coming along, but we know how to work together and develop them."
Utah had several defensive issues to address heading into spring practice, not the least of which was replacing two NFL-bound linemen in Joe Kruger and Star Lotulelei.
The Utes also needed to find new cornerbacks and add depth at safety.
It sounded like a big task, even for a seasoned crew, but the Utes are happy with the way the players have developed. Sitake and the other coaches simplified some of the defensive schemes, allowing the players to "not think, just play," as sophomore linebacker Jared Norris put it, but the players have put in the work too and are showing it on the field.
"Every day they've gotten better," Sitake said. "Our older guys aren't getting a lot of reps and they are going up against a good offense, but the younger guys are doing fine."
Despite the loss of Lotulelei and Kruger, the Utes are confident their line has the talent to be just as good as it was in 2012, if not better.
Utah coach Kyle Whittingham referred to senior Tenny Palepoi, Lotulelei's replacement, as one of the top linemen in the league while freshman Stevie Tu'ikolovatu has been one of the standouts of camp.
"Our tackles have probably been the most improved group of spring," Whittingham said. "When we get the players from the recruiting class in this fall, we should be very deep."
The cornerbacks for now are Keith McGill and Justin Thomas. McGill has the potential to be one of the better playmakers in the league if the Utes can keep him healthy, while Thomas has emerged as a surprise player with the freshman beating out junior college transfer Justin Thomas so far.
The safeties are solid with Eric Rowe and Tyron Morris-Edwards having good springs. The addition of junior college transfer Tevin Carter in the fall should allow the Utes to keep Blechen at linebacker.
While their names might not be as well known as the Krugers or Lotulelei, Sitake believes with time they will be.
"We've got a lot of talent," he said. "We just need to take advantage of every practice we have to develop it."

Goa Nightlife
Flaunting its strong Portuguese heritage, Goa is definitely the nightlife hub of India. Goa still retains a laid-back hippie atmosphere in many areas and impulsive beach parties are a common occurrence, with visitors and locals relaxing on the beach after sunset with a couple of cold drinks and some mellow tunes. There are also numerous houses which have a room open to the public as a bar-cum-restaurant, usually serving great seafood. Tito's, on Baga Beach, is a Goa hotspot at night, as is the new Beachotheque club. Lidos, in Dona Paula, is also very popular, and Club Cubana on Arpora Hill attracts quite a crowd, as does Nine Bar. Goa hosts great rave and trance music parties, especially in winter under the full moon. The venues for these raves are kept secret till just hours before they kick off, and visitors will have to ask around at local bars for details. Goa is also developing fast as a resort centre and many hotels provide their own party venues.
The most famous Goan party season is over new year's eve, when visitors flood onto the beaches to dance under the stars and enjoy fireworks and trance music in this beautiful setting. If you travel to Goa for a new year's party be sure to book far in advance as it is very popular.

First off, he clearly labels what's free and what requires a subscription to unlock additional features. There isn't
any deceptive generalization about what does and doesn't work for free versus paid. Integrity speaks volumes in my book.'
Everything is free to try, afaik, and in most cases has all the bells and whistles you would need, for free. To unlock additional features costs next to nothing when you take into account all the time Peter has taken to document everything, with clear live examples and the syntax used to make those examples happen. The way the examples are laid out, versus the syntax used is nicely laid out in a tabular intuitive format. Easily switching back and forth, form example tab to syntax tab makes it a breeze to get any modal up and running just the way you want it.
The Support is top notch. His forum responses speak volumes about his participation and dedication to everyone that uses his extensions, free or paid. Most answers to questions are quickly found by doing a simple search. If not, Peter is very quick to reply. How he does it, I have no idea. I think his mom had quintuplets or something. :P
I personally needed a modal slideshow of photo's to auto-play once a text link was clicked on. I also needed to call several of these modal slideshows within the same article. Between the Modal examples on his website and the plugin parameters being set to near perfect defaults, all I had to do was cut and paste one line of modal code and modify the path to where my cabin images were stored. From start to finish, I had 3 modal slideshows up and running, just like my customer wanted, all within about 10 minutes.
Kudos to you Peter. Awesome job, keep up the great work. Very impressed with the high standards.
It's very unfortunate that we will have to find an alternative for a handful of our Joomla 3.x sites. Been waiting since Dec of last year. We hope a 3.x version is around the horizon. Thanks Viktor Vogel, very much appreciated.
Thank you very much for your review!
A Joomla! 3.x version will be available soon (1-2 weeks). :-)

Nubian heritage's black soap is really much better. This one doesn't smells nice and doesn't fight with acne. Its only pros is that it doesnt dry out the skin

It has a very strong smell of oils - to be concrete - it smells like one of those candle repellents for mosquitos. Also, it doesnt foam very well. You have to rub real deal with it to make it foam. It doesnt remove swet odour, it still stays there. Oh, by the way, it is not african. Nor it is black african soap. The word African goes for the brand, the black goes for the colour. It has nothing to do with the real one. DO NOT BE MISTAKEN.

I love that this black soap is all-natural, pure and unrefined, biodegradable, vegetable, unscented, and doesn't contain any dangerous and toxic chemicals, synthetic ingredients, additives, preservatives, artificial colorants, fragrances, endocrine disruptors, irritants, or allergens. It lathers well, gently cleanses the skin, unclogs pores without leaving a greasy film, and lasts a long time. The ingredients are great: shea butter, palm and coconut oils, and vegetable glycerin moisturize, nourish, and soften the skin, improving its elasticity and making its softer and smoother, aloe vera soothes and heals the skin, calms itching, reduces redness and irritation, plantain skin is a powerful antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, antibiotic, antibacterial, antimicrobial, antiviral, antifungal agent fighting and preventing infection and inflammation, sea salt tones and firms the skin, stimulates cell renewal and regeneration. This soap is best for oily and combination skin and may be a little dehydrating for dry and sensitive skin. But overall, this product is a great alternative to toxic, chemical-filled mainstream soaps.
Lathers Good...

Prowling for profit
As demand rises for unmanned surveillance drones, Poway's General Atomics Aeronautical among companies positioned to benefit
Over the past decade, Pentagon procurement spending on unmanned aerial vehicles has surged from $500 million to $3.5 billion. Defense Secretary Robert Gates has said he wants more drones in the field. He told the military to move faster to get those systems deployed, even if they have only 75 percent or 80 percent of their expected features ready for action, military officials said.
General Atomics got into the drone business after acquiring a small company out of bankruptcy in the early 1990s that had been working on the aircraft. By the mid-'90s, it had perfected the technology enough to build prototype planes.
Thomas Cassidy Jr., a retired admiral who heads General Atomics Aeronautical, went ahead without waiting for the Pentagon to come out with specifications for what it wanted. That's unusual in the defense business, analysts say.
"Tom picked absolutely the sweetest spot in the technology," said Dave Fulghum of Aviation Week, an aerospace industry magazine. "He essentially made a platform that you can stick almost anything into. That has been the perfect answer, and it's the cheapest of the high-performance platforms that are out there."
Predators, Reapers and Sky Warriors — the Army's version of the aircraft — generally cost $4 million to $12 million each. Sometimes costs are higher, depending on sensors, communications and weapons payloads.
General Atomics makes money not only on building the planes, ground stations and some radar systems, but also gets paid for maintaining the drones.
That has become a lucrative business as use of the aircraft soared in Iraq and Afghanistan, analysts say.
"They understood the importance of the life-cycle part of the business," said Lindsay Voss, an industry analyst with Frost & Sullivan. "These aircraft are being used at such a high rate and in such extreme environments. General Atomics can make a killing on the back end by supporting it and providing the services that are required to keep these aircraft going."
The company is repeating the blueprint that worked in the Predator for the next generation of drone. This year, it flew the Avenger for the first time — even though it doesn't have a customer.
The Avenger has a jet engine, a first for the Predator family, It also has other features for better performance in more contested airspace.
"General Atomics is trying to continue its 'first mover' advantage," said Ryan Peoples, an associate principal with Charles River Associates, a defense industry research firm. "With the Predator, they did all this development on their own dime, so they were best positioned to capture (the Air Force contract) when it came along. And they're just continuing that trend with the Avenger."
The Air Force hasn't set a firm time frame for seeking proposals for the next generation of medium-altitude drone. When it does, however, the Avenger is likely to have competition, analysts say. For example, a previously unknown stealth drone recently was spotted in Afghanistan. It has been declassified as a Lockheed Martin "Skunk Works"-designed plane. Others such as AAI Corp. and Northrop Grumman also could compete, analysts say.
"That program will be really important in the way the future of UAVs is shaped," said Voss of Frost & Sullivan. "They could really mix it up if they choose a vendor other than General Atomics. It's pretty unlikely, but it's something everybody is going to be talking about."

Bringing the 'Ghosts' of Google Street View To Life
There's a whole cottage industry online devoted to mining for these oddities (see here, here, here, and here, a blog devoted entirely to people caught walking their dogs on Google Street View).
Artist Paolo Cirio, however, believes that all of these images are misappropriated data.
"It's really interesting for me that Google didn't ask permission to do what they did, just going around every single city in the world and taking pictures without even alerting the police, or the public administration"

The mouth of Bengals receiver Chad Ochocinco never seems to quit. In a recent article with NFL.com Ochocinco elaborated on his new plans to stay busy during the lockout.
After having tried out for a professional soccer team. Challenged his head coach to a a cage fight. And showed the world how long it takes to fall off a Bull (1.5 Seconds FYI). Ochocinco feels he needs to "one-up" Bengals Owner Mike Brown and do something Brown didn't even mention during his "snake wrangling" quote.
I just one-upped [Brown]: I am going to wrestle alligators. Don't laugh, like I am serious and you'll see it. And I am living life.
In Okeechobee [FL], I am wrestling alligators. Actually, catching them in the wild. Which is going to be really interesting, I am catching them in the wild. I forgot the individual's name who is going with me, who does it for a living. It's pretty dangerous, I could lose an arm, lose a leg, you know… so was bull riding. So the chance of me getting hurt on the bull is similar to the chance as me winning the lottery, slim to none. And the same thing with alligators. If he bites me, I can still play with one arm. I can kick, seriously.
That's right folks, you read it right. Ochocinco is going to go wrestle with alligators. After obviously mastering all things Professional Bull Riding, Chad feels he needs to do the next natural thing; wrestle an alligator.
Hopefully some part of Ochocinco actually remembers how his other
publicity stunts ventures turned out. Because not making a soccer team, and falling off a bull are a little bit less dangerous then wrestling with an alligator. (Specifically in the fact neither the soccer team, Bull or Rodeo Clowns tried to bite a chunk off one of his limbs.) If Chad does get this last event in before the CBA conflict resolved, more power to him. I know one thing is for sure, I don't think Bengals fans will have to worry about A.J. Green having his arm bit by an alligator.

Arizona Cardinals
Todd Heap: Arizona Cardinals must stay together
Arizona Cardinals tight end Todd Heap said the team is not embarrassed by how it has played over the last couple months.
"I don't think you can be embarrassed when you go out there and give everything you have," Heap told Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo Monday. "I don't think we're losing in embarrassing fashion."
However, the veteran did admit he's never been through a losing streak as long as the one the Cardinals are currently riding.
"Never been part of it, so new territory," he said, before offering thoughts on what the team must do while it is trying to right the ship.
"When you talk to people in the media, when you get asked the questions, people are going to be asking questions about other guys, about coaches, about this," he said. "The first thing you have to do is stick together as a team and make sure you believe in one another and not let those things tear you apart.
"You have to stay together."
Heap said if the Cardinals are to turn things around, that's what's going to have to happen in the meantime.
"Anybody that's ever been on a team that has experienced it knows that that's the case and knows that's what we have to do," he said. "As a group of guys in the locker room, as coaches, as an organization that's what we have to do is pull together just to get that one win and get out of this hole."

Body Bakery: Bread imitating Gore by Kittiwat Unarrom
This brings weird to a whole new level. Thai Fine Art student and artist Kittiwat Unarrom is the son of a baker. All that baking exposure growing up has been a clear influence, but his artistic need to see things a little differently definitely flared up as he created the tacitly named "Body Bakery" – brutally, gruesomely, almost unbelievably realistic looking sculptures of dismembered human body parts sculpted entirely from bread.
With a master in Fine Arts Kittiwat Unarrom creates sculpture in bread. Not just normal sculpture but horror, dark art, gore, something I don't know if I could actually eat. Located in Ratchaburi, Thailand Kittiwat creates feet, hands, heads, and internal organs among other body parts all entirely edible and for sale at his family's bakery. He skillfully paints each piece to look terrifying to the observer/customer.
I thought this was real at first, holy shit.
in love

Daily breaking news and news the liberal media doesn't want you to know, won't report, or just daily news issues.
Americans for many years have had to rely on left leaning biased news reporting from liberal media such as NBC, ABC, and CBS and the New York Times. As most of these outlets struggle to remain on the air and in print, the new media is flourishing and people are hearing both sides of the issues. This forum will provide people with a place to discuss daily news issues of any kind or discuss articles not printed or aired by the liberal news outlets.

Its hilarious that conservatives who place a high value on what is right and wrong go after potheads breaking the law (because you know it does lead to the breakdown of society:sarcasm)and completely ignore the companies that truthfully hurt this nation and our society.

Those actions and policies pursued by conservatives are the antithesis of the freedom that we supposedly hold dear.
Posted 209 days ago.
Alright here is a question that needs to be asked by those who say progressives are out to "control" the population of this country.
Is that their singular aim? Or is the "control" just a side effect of the policies that progressives pursue?
This whole aspect of control is interesting in that we see conservatives getting up in arms about so called controls being put in place over people and themselves but yet we see them putting place laws that are meant to insure that their opponents have a harder time getting elected by changing voting laws,their religious rights are upheld and given more weight than the personal freedoms of others(the gay rights issue and contraceptive/abortion issue).
They are trying to control the freedom of others whom they do not agree with or have a problem with. I mean we all know what these new voting laws are about. Its to make it more difficult for a certain part of our population to vote and elect another Barack Obama.

A person that will work five days a week for years should enjoy more than a poverty level wage.We had no accountability for the billions that changed hands in the near past.Could that be an example of the freedom you desire? I can't trust the plutocrats on the right with my money and freedoms.
Posted 210 days ago.
Sure. As technology, inventions, productivity improvements, health care innovations and discoveries, and if generational learning takes place as it should, of course mankind should be safer, stronger, smarter and more "civilized". History shows that crediting people and organizations who want to exercise control over a population ("progressives") leads to oligarchy, corruption, tyranny, and tragedy. Freedom will generate real progress. The Socialists in the CFAP can not be trusted with my freedom nor my money.

Not all on the right take an extremist view, nor do all on the left hold uber progressive values.As for the rights of the person on the street,it can be said they have many more than their ancestors.They may generally be assured that they will not unnecessarily lose their life in the workplace,and that their food and water supplies are not tainted with toxins.And that if there are incidents,there will be accountability.Civilization has a price attached.

Take a look at the "progressive" aggressive Center for American Progress Action Fund ... the policy positions, the means to their ends, etc. Strickland's new "work" will be promoting agendas of more and bigger Centralized Government control over aspects of American life and business. All that control requires bigger bureaucracy. All that bureaucracy requires money. By definition, "progressives" are pickpockets who use the law to do what they could not do one-on-one, on the street, to a free Citizen. This is not a spiritual activity. Sorry. I would respect him had he devoted his talents to some private charity work. C.F.A.P. ? Again, sorry.

According to program officials, as the primary sensor for the flight test, SBX's task was to track the missile target, an intermediate-range missile, and provide a qualified track on the target to GMD. During the flight test, SBX initially performed as expected but then experienced a failure which prevented it from establishing a reportable track on the target. Additionally, during the last test of Ground-Based Midcourse Defense in February 2010, the SBX Radar did not perform as expected. The intercept failure investigation is ongoing.

Summary: The original author was playing with the idea of a world where Shinji did not actually meet Kaworu, but had to destroy him once he was told he was an Angel. Kaworu is still the same though, and remembers everything about Shinji from their previous lifetimes.

As the Hammer formula grew creaky, a new wave of more explicit Brit-horrors broke in the '70s, including this effort from Norman J. Warren.
The plot involves a curse affecting the few remaining ancestors of a royal lineage (Carolyn Courage and John 'uncle of Christopher' Nolan), but this flimsy backstory serves merely as an excuse for some Argento-esque murders.
It's no Suspiria, but as a by-numbers slasher with playfully meta elements (in one scene a character mistakes paint for blood), Terror's an enjoyable romp for aficionados.

The Detroit Lions offense was explosive when both Calvin Johnson and Reggie Bush were in the lineup. However, when one or both were missing the Lions struggled to move the ball, which is why finding a complementary threat opposite of Calvin Johnson is essential this offseason.
After missing on a few second round wide receivers in two of the past three drafts, there is a good chance the Lions draft a wide receiver with their first round pick. Enter Sammy Watkins of Clemson.
Notable Combine Measurables
Height: 6'1
Weight: 205 lbs
40-Yd Dash: 4.43 sec
225-lb Bench Press: 16 reps
Vertical Jump: 34″
Broad Jump: 126″
3-Cone Drill: 6.95 sec
20-Yd Shuttle: 4.34 sec
Traits and Projected Round
Sammy Watkins might be the best skills player in the draft and can burn defenses in a variety of ways. His exceptional speed and quickness make him a dangerous ball carrier on reverse plays and screen passes and he's strong enough to take a hit from a secondary player on the edge and take it for six. Watkins is almost impossible to guard one on one on the outside and can beat defenders just as easy across the middle.
At this stage should be considered an average route runner, but there's no reason to think that he can't excel in that area with the right coaching.
Watkins is almost a lock for a top five pick. To secure his services the Lions will likely need to trade up which seems more plausible this year than in past years given how close the organization feels it is to winning now.
Why the Lions Could Draft Sammy Watkins
The Lions still have other positions they need to address, but unlike previous years, wide receiver trumps all other needs. The Lions are in "win now" mode and there isn't a better complement to Calvin Johnson in this year's draft then Sammy Watkins. He has the upside to eventually serve as the Lions primary target as Reggie Wayne did for the Colts after the retirement of Marvin Harrison.
The video below shows off Watkins ability to destroy a defense from any spot on the field whether that be pass or run. His home run threat paired with Reggie Bush and Calvin Johnson would give defensive coordinators nightmares.
Another plus for the Lions is he doesn't appear to be the diva that players with his talent usually are, especially at the wide receiver position.

Computer Users Skip the PC When it Comes to
Their Taxes
Media please

(858) 795-7148 email@example.com
Analyst/Investors, please contact:
Barry Zwarenstein, Iomega Corporation, (858) 795-7190
For Immediate Release
National Survey Commissioned by Iomega
Corporation Finds Early Adopters of "Taxes and Technology"
Put Their Tax Data Files at Risk With Poor Protection
Calif., March 3, 2003 - As Internet users continue
to integrate the personal computer into nearly every
aspect of their lives – downloading the latest
music, planning vacations, checking stock portfolios,
emailing friends and making purchases online –
one important task continues to be done the old-fashioned
way: income taxes. A new national survey of U.S. online
adults, commissioned by Iomega Corporation (NYSE: IOM)
and conducted by Harris Interactive®, found that
nearly two out of every three Internet users do not
use a computer to prepare their taxes.
Despite the popularity of tax software
available to computer users and the push by the Internal
Revenue Service for Americans to file their taxes online,
the survey revealed that a surprising 62% of respondents
do not use a computer to prepare their annual income
taxes electronically, electing instead such alternatives
as doing their taxes with pencil and paper, or seeking
the help of an accountant.
"The computer is king except
when it comes to taxes and Uncle Sam," said Robert
Borden, vice president, customer advocacy, Iomega Corporation.
"With the advent of tax software, the conversion
to preparing taxes on a personal computer is ongoing,
but like broadband, it's not happening at the
breakneck pace that was expected. And interestingly
enough, early adopters of 'taxes and technology'
are learning some hard lessons for the rest of us, like
the importance of backing up electronic tax data to
a secure location. It appears that most don't."
"The beauty of Iomega Automatic
Backup software is its flexible and convenient approach
to file protection," said Jet Martin, product
general manager of Software Solutions, Iomega Corporation.
"Combined with Toshiba's portable hard disk
drive, the hassles of data protection are removed. Users
fall in love with Iomega Automatic Backup software the
first time it prevents a data disaster, since it gives
them peace of mind that their important files are safe."
Who Prepares
Taxes By Computer
According to the survey, respondents
with higher education, higher income, who are married,
or who have children, were more likely to do their taxes
These deficient backup habits had the expected result:
12% of those who used a computer to do their taxes said
they had lost electronic tax records due to a "computer
disaster." And overall, nearly one out of every
two online respondents (44%) reported losing important
data files due to a "computer disaster."
Smart File
Backup: The New Necessity
"The underlying story in the survey is that people
still aren't protecting their electronic tax records,"
said Borden. "By relying on paper, they lose all
the advantages of having their data in digital form,
and they have to remember where the shoebox is in the
closet. Keeping critical files like tax records only
on their computer hard drives can also spell real trouble.
A computer virus, hacker, hard drive crash or even an
accidental deletion can result in the loss of important
data. The safer, smarter route is to put those tax files
and other important computer records on removable storage,
such as a Zip disk, floppy disk or CD."
Iomega Corporation makes the popular
Zip drive and other portable storage devices. For protecting
critical data, Iomega Recommends the Zip platform for
its superior reliability and performance compared to
popular CD-R alternatives:
Survey Background Information
The national survey of online users, commissioned by Iomega
Corporation to determine how computer users protect their
critical tax records and other data, was conducted by
Harris Interactive® via its QuickQueryTM online omnibus
service from Feb. 13-17, 2003, interviewing a nationwide
sample of 2,446 U.S. adults (18+). The margin of error
is approximately (+/-2.8 percentage points with a 95 percent
level of confidence, and the data were weighted to be
representative of the total U.S. adult population on the
basis of region, age within gender, education, household
income and race/ethnicity.

HOBART | Friends of Robinson Lake will continue to push city officials to buy the former St. Sava property, spokeswoman Sandy O'Brien said.
O'Brien, who recently pitched the idea to the Park Board, said the 40-acre former St. Sava property should be preserved because of its woods and wetlands and its link between the north and south portion of the Hobart Marsh.
The purchase proposal by Friends of Robinson Lake, a nonprofit group, may be a moot point because there has been recent interest shown by a potential buyer, Realtor Aaron McDermott said.
"We have interest, but nothing signed. It could lead to something," McDermott said.
McDermott, who serves as president of Latitude Commercial Realty Inc., said his company received the property listing six months ago.
The property, which is still being actively marketed, is listed at $20,000 per acre.
The former St. Sava property, 4101 W. 49th Ave., was put up for sale two years ago by current property owners, Bear Country Park, spokesman Larry Brown said.
Brown said developers gave up on plans to develop it and Robinson Lake after they lost the backing of city officials.
The plan included renovating the 21,000-square-foot St. Sava Hall and using it as a full-service restaurant, banquet hall and smoke-free bingo center.
Brown also had talked about buying or leasing Robinson Lake Park, adjacent to the church property, as an area for campers, picnic shelters, public bathrooms and laundry facilities.
O'Brien and other members of the Friends of Robinson Lake earlier this year sent letters to the City Council and Board of Public Works urging the city to apply for a coastal grant that could help pay for the former St. Sava parcel.
O'Brien encouraged members to attend the Dec. 6 Plan Commission meeting to provide positive input for the Hobart Marsh Plan.
It's important that the Hobart Marsh Plan be approved because it provides a 1,000-acre natural area on the city's west side, O'Brien said.
"We'd like people to go to support the Hobart Marsh," O'Brien said.

Launching the first high school cycling team in Richmond was a tough task. Doing such out of a school like Armstrong High, was seemingly to most anyone, impossible. The first day of hanging recruitment posters around the school, a faculty member approached me and Matt, read the poster, and quipped "you may get one or two kids at the meeting…good luck."
Six weeks later, the Principal at Armstrong High pulled me aside to explain that the cycling team had garnered the most interest and excitement than any other club/sport/activity since her time at the school. "How do we get more students on the team?" she asked. "We don't," I said. My response startled her. I continued: "I want to build a legacy at this school—one that is hinged on a prestigious program— one that the students are proud of— and this can't be done with an abundance of half-hearted students…It can only be created by a few, who become the beacons of example to many." I admit, I knew this question was coming, and so my response was fairly polished. After five years of working with the exact demographic of student that fills the halls of Armstrong High, and knowing just how physically, mentally, and emotionally demanding cycling is, this wasn't my first rodeo to produce a successful campaign in our first year. Below is a photo timeline of how Armstrong Cycling came to be a team, and a snapshot of success in the team's first year.
Recruitment Poster
First Practice February 6th: Weeding out those who don't want to work. It's hard to select team members for a cycling team, when several have never ridden a mountain bike. Cycling is easy to teach to those willing to work hard.
First Week on the bikes February 18th:
Our solution to one of the snowiest winters in Richmond history, March 4th:
Men's Team Camp in Harpers Ferry, March 8th: Trying to get a group of Armstrong boys to gel.
The week of practices that showed me we had three boys capable of racing at the Varsity level. They were shocked (and scared) to hear the news only days out from their first race, March 27th:
Day of first race in Richmond— now down to 7 team members. We'd lose another two members as we weren't willing to compromise our rules, April 1st:
Race #2, Varsity member, Antonio Goode shows he's got what it takes to compete at a high level— cracking the top 20 (18th place) in Roanoke.
Race #3, Charlottesville—Sandwiched during Spring Break, and causing us to lose some systematic controls due to a week out of school, the Armstrong Team came unraveled, with poor results and attitudes. Five members now remain on the team, April 22nd:
April 28th, this photo and two page story on the revolutionary Armstrong Cycling Team makes the front page of the Richmond Times Dispatch:
Coaching from Matt Crane and Julie Hunter helps The Armstrong JV girls continue to improve and get more comfortable off-road and on technical singletrack, May 8th:
Race #4, Varsity rider, Antonio Goode, has another breakthrough race, putting him in the elite class of the top 15 in Harrisonburg, May 10th:
After a top 15 two days before, Antonio sets his focus on cracking the top 10 at the State Championships in St. George, May 12th. It's hard to believe that the toughest kid at Armstrong High is 5'9" and weighs 135lbs:
Race #5, State Championships in St. George— the JV girls put in their best race yet on an extremely treacherous course— caked in mud, their spirits and effort remained high. The boys had a rough day— having never ridden in thick mud, their new found speed didn't mix well with bike control and mechanical problems. Both finished.
Needless to say, the past four months have gone by in a blink. We had students who'd never dedicated to anything in their life, put in lung-burning, leg-screaming, hard work, in poor conditions; over rocks, roots, and mud; scrapping knees, bruising hips— showing up each week on their own accord. Some academic grades improved— some didn't improve. Some of our students got suspended from school. All but one had discipline issues at some point during the semester. None of this truly matters when the real task at hand is re-engineering character traits (especially with teenagers)— which starts with finding something..anything..anyone..a purpose that motivates a person to show up and put forth effort. We reached them— and helped them accomplish feats they didn't think were possible. For the five members that kept themselves on the team, they, for the first time, felt what true commitment is…to team, to self, to coach. We now have a base to build from…

THURSDAY, June 19, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- The earlier smokers light that first cigarette of the day, the more likely they are to develop lung cancer, a new study finds.
A research team, led by Dr. Fangyi Gu of the U.S. National Cancer Institute, interviewed more than 3,200 current and former smokers in the United States and Italy. All of the smokers were asked about their smoking history and when they typically had their first cigarette of the day.
According to the researchers, people who started smoking within an hour of waking up had a significantly higher risk of developing lung cancer than those who lit up more than an hour after waking up.
The study accounted for variables such as smoking intensity, how long people had been smokers, and other lung cancer risk factors.
The link between lung cancer and the first cigarette of the day was stronger in current smokers than in former smokers, and in lighter smokers than in heavier smokers. There were no differences between men and women.
The study was published June 19 in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
Further research is needed, and the study can only point to an association between the timing of a smoker's first cigarette and lung cancer risk; it cannot prove cause-and-effect.
However, assessing when smokers have their first cigarette of the day "may improve lung cancer risk prediction and could be useful in lung cancer screening and smoking cessation programs," the study authors wrote.

The Springfield City Council moved last week to establish stringent anti-foreclosure laws in the city. At its July 18 meeting, the Council voted unanimously in favor of two ordinances that would make it tougher for lenders to rush to foreclose on residences, and force them to take more responsibility for foreclosed properties once they're vacant. Supporters say the changes will help keep families from being left homeless, and spare neighborhoods the problems that come with having vacant homes on their blocks.
Under one of the ordinances, lenders cannot foreclose on a home without first participating in a city-facilitated mediation process and receiving a certificate verifying their "good faith participation" in the process. The mediation process will include discussion of loan modifications and possible forgiveness of debt. The program would be available to owners of single-family and multi-family houses, as long as the owner lives in the property and it has four or fewer units.
The second ordinance requires lenders looking to foreclose on a property to pay a $10,000 cash bond to help pay for the building to be secured and maintained. "The costs associated with foreclosed and vacant homes have a direct impact on both individual families and the city at large," the Springfield No One Leaves/Nadie Se Mude coalition, which fights for people facing foreclosure and eviction, said in a release after the vote. "Families and communities are destroyed by the mass foreclosures being carried out by big banks, the city incurs significant costs to maintain these properties, and property values decline significantly throughout the city."
The Council vote followed a rally on the steps of City Hall organized by No One Leaves/Nadie Se Mude. Last year, there were more foreclosures in Springfield than in any other municipality in the commonwealth.
The ordinances still need to pass two more Council votes.
What a joke, I'd like to shave some off my mortgage but I can't because I read my mortgage documents.
I agree..this is an insult to the people who work to keep their homes.
Banks being held to higher standards on upkeep in another issue that should have been adopted eons ago.
The only insult here, is to think the readers of this article would be snowed by the conservative trolls above. This bill is all about equality and fair play, and not allowing financial entities any greater influence over our neighbourhoods.
Actually, this is a great program to help those in need. Anyone who thinks otherwise, is surely out to profit from the misfortunate and those who are victimes of predatory lenders.
Going through the foreclosure process is very complicated and not easy to go through. Foreclosure laws differ from state to state. For more information on foreclosure laws from state to state, http://www.foreclosures.com/state-foreclosure-laws/ is a great resource.
Aaron Goldsmith
This is a direct result of government intervention in the mortgage market. Most of these people who are losing their homes would have never qualified for a mortgage before 1998. The unprecedented rise in home prices was a direct result of relaxing the guidelines for entry. No longer did you have to be a good risk because Fannie May and Fredie Mac were assuming the risk.
I feel sorry for these people because they were sold a bill of goods and they will likely lose their homes or we taxpayers will pick up the tab. They had to go through a government approved program to qualify for these programs. That worked well didn't it.
The "good" news is most of them had very little or none of their own money invested due to the ease of access to mortgage money. This is an excellent lesson demonstrating the old saying: "I'm from the government......and I'm here to help." Nobody gets helped except the vote seeking politician.
"We have met the enemy, and he is us!" Pogo
Skip..you are right on about the people who should of been disqualified for a mortgage, although tiedyeguy will disagree with his liberal hogwash. He'll just tell you how this will be "good for Springfield", without offering up any reasons how or why. I saw the city hall rally and all the people who should of been disqualified started to rejoice because they werent going to have to pay their bills anymore...the hardworking taxpayer will pick up the tab so they can continue to collect their mountains of entitlements.
The foreclosure crisis has forced too many families from their homes and left too many homes in disrepair.
Let's see, make it harder for lenders to foreclose and gain title and possession of a property, and after the deadbeat borrowers have trashed the house, make the lender more responsible for the upkeep. Makes perfect sense in such a senseless city.
Most of you probably don't think about the fact that most homeowners that are losing their homes are also victims of the downturn of the economy in the sense that people are losing their jobs left and right due to no fault of their own.
Remember that banks sucked people in with adjustable mortage rate, and that most homeowners have been diligent tax payers their whole lives...so, anyone that is coming down on people having trouble with their mortgage payments, are happy to see that there is help for them being that it's next to impossible to find a job right now....
So, two factors come into play....adjustable rate debacle, and the loss of jobs from hard working people. Feel lucky that you still have a job...and that you can still pay your bills, because many MANY people lost their jobs due to the downturn, and now lenders are deciding not to participate in the government programs of loan modifications, and it is not enforced at all.
This is a good thing for the city....and if you don't think so, then you clearly haven't been affected by this two factors...... we spent almost a year trying to go through the Hope for Homes program (or whatever it's called) and the only thing our lender came back with was something the denied us for because we couldn't come up with the down payment for the loan modification THEY chose for us...with all the options available...they chose the one option they knew we couldn't afford. BS is what it is. By the way, we still have our home and are still struggling to make ends meet, even though we are employed, pay cuts were significant, and we're still struggling. Not our fault? Well, we all hold our lives in our own hands...BUT, there is a reason why this is such a huge problem nationwide, and it's not because we are all dead beat borrowers that are "rejoicing at the fact that we don't have to pay our bills"...that insight is such a pathetic non-empathetic view....those people have no right to come down on good hard working people such as us. We got our loan because of our AAA credit rating...not because we were taken advantage of when we got our loan. BUT, the jobs crisis has taken many people and their homes hostage...so, shame on you for thinking that way. Your tax's will not increase, so stop playing the "us tax payers filp the bill" card...as it has no merit in the larger scheme of things.
Maybe many shouldn't have gotten a loan, but that doesn't put the fault on us...it's the lenders that shouldn't have given the loan....uuuggghhhhhhh....makes my head spin.
Typical limp wristed response for irresponsible people. Own a home? Pay the mortgage. Don't pay the mortgage? Lose the home. Very simple. But not to the leftist pinkos. No wonder this country is a shell of what it once was.
Chris...didnt the government practically order the lending institutions to lower their loan approval qualifications with a gun pointed at their head?...in Massachusetts in paticular by the likes of ultra-Liberal "do-gooders" like Barney Frank, the man who is pretty much solely responsible for the mortgage meltdown crisis? Frank and friends basically ordered these banks to give loans to people they knew or had to know, would eventually default, and thats not to mention the land flipping schemes that some of these so called "indigent" people were involved in. It was all pre-planned, buyer included. Why would some crackhead care if his credit rating dropped as long as he made a quick couple grand?...remember Bergdoll, McCarthy, and whoever else convicted in these schemes?...those werent innocent buyers that were scammed....those buyers were in on the scam.
As I understand it make the loan company pay for up keep, because a home owner cant pay for it or won't, we think this is going to help WHO?, these banks and loan company won't want to loan money to people who want to buy in the city because of this new law
this is whats gonna happen in Springfield..the nations 12th most dangerous
