Denim Review: 7 For All Mankind Gummy Gwenevere in Dark Violet
This weeks denim review is on a pair of jeans that you regular readers know I have loved for a while now, the 7 For All Mankind Gummy Gwenevere skinny jeans in Dark Violet. The first time I saw these on Shopbop, I was obsessed with them! They just looked so pretty! The colour was what had me hooked, I already have a couple of Gummy Gweneveres and I love how they fit me, so I knew these ones would be amazing!
These got sent to me by 7 For All Mankind as Shopbop was selling out fast. I had to take a 26 which is the sample/model size as they didn't have any other sizes available. I thought I would just squeeze myself into them as I am usually a 27, but it turned out that I didn't have to. These actually fit me just fine. They even feel a little bit loose on me actually, but I am not sure if they are miss-sized or if they really run this big. All of my other Gummy Gweneveres and normal Gweneveres are a 27 but by the size of these, I could take a 25 in them. If this sizing is correct.
The one thing I love about the Gummy denim is how comfortable it is! I wore these all day when I went up to London last week (I've included some Buckingham Palace photos for you). That involves a 1 and a half hour train ride there, taxis, walking, a lot of walking, and then a 1 and half hour train ride back home. I wasn't uncomfortable once in them and I am glad I picked them for that day out. They feel just like leggings and you could easily do yoga or stretches in them without any trouble. Even though they feel like leggings, they still fit like jeans at the same time so that's why I think they are amazing!
Now the Dark Violet wash! It's perfect! As you know I love the berry tones and purple definitely fits in to that shade. It reminds me a lot of the blackcurrant drink called Ribena which we have over here in England, I'm not sure if you do in the States, but it's the same shade of purple and it's truly beautiful! It's fun to have this shade of purple in a pair of jeans because it livens up your outfit but at the same time it's still one of the lesser daring colours, unlike a bold red or yellow. If you love coloured jeans then there is not one person that I wouldn't recommend these to! They are definitely worth it! They are in my top 2 favourite coloured jeans I own! Buy these jeans online at Shopbop for $169.

Denim Review: J Brand 811 Jeans in Black Cherry
This weeks review is on the J Brand 811 mid rise skinny jeans in Black Cherry. I have loved the colour of these jeans from the moment I first saw them when they were released. I thought they were the perfect shade of red for Autumn/Winter and I was right. I never got to review any of their bright colours from the Spring/Summer collection but I am glad I got these ones instead.
The 811 mid rise skinny fit is definitely not my favourite cut from them if I am honest. My favourite would have to be the 910 or the 901. These have a higher rise than what I am used to and they are also not as skinny in the calf area but when I wear them with a longer top and cuff the hem slightly, they become perfect! I find that's something I do quite often actually, if a jean is not working for me then I will change things around with them until the suit me. I think these look much better cuffed anyway. I'm sure this is only a problem for the minority like myself though, I have very small calves so a lot of skinny jeans are always too baggy in the calf area on me, I need a super skinny to wear skinnies really. I took a 27 in these which is my usual J Brand size and they fit perfectly.
They have the classic simplicity that J Brand has in all of their jeans, minimal stitching, plain pockets, no back tag etc and this is something I love about them. I'm not into heavy branding on jeans and I prefer to keep things simple. I think that's why so many people favour J Brand actually, they are all about the jeans and the fit of their jeans, not logos or branding. These are also made of twill so they are super soft and stretchy. I love twill in jeans, only if it's in lighter colours though as darker twill is a complete fluff magnet! These are not like that, they are just comfortable and nice on the skin.
The Black Cherry wash, where do I start, it's amazing! It has to be my favourite from their coloured twill skinnies collection. As you know from my post yesterday, I adore berry coloured jeans and these remind me of the berries on holly bushes as well as some pretty Winter berries that you start seeing around this time of year. It's such a rich, deep and dark red but it's not too dark that it looks brown. I think the pictures just speak for themselves really when I say how pretty it is. I think darker reds are one of the easiest coloured jeans to wear because they still remain an 'acceptable' colour in my opinion. I definitely plan on wearing these more often purely because of the Black Cherry wash. I think if they brought these out in the 910 or 901 cut, they would be even more perfect! Buy these jeans online at J Brand for $169.

Denim Review: DL1961 Jessica skinny jeans in Liberty
This weeks review is on a pair of DL1961 Jessica skinny jeans in Liberty that I got sent by the brand. I first tried DL1961 about 2 years ago and I really loved how they fitted me.
The fit of these is a classic 12″ skinny with a mid rise so they are a standard style skinny jean but they have a difference. The back pockets feature one zipper above the right pocket. This is a trademark of their Jessica fit and I love it! It makes the jeans much more unique but in a subtle way. The zipper is narrow and not 'in your face' like some can be so the jeans still have a classy feel to them. I did take a 28 in these as when I tried the 27's 2 years ago, they were really tight. I think they have changed their sizing a bit now though as these 28's are quite loose on me, especially in the leg area. A 27 would have fitted much better I think.
DL1961 make their jeans from their special 4 way stretch X-Fit fabric which means the jeans stretch with your body when you move but they don't stretch out and they don't lose their shape, which I think is fantastic! So many jeans become really baggy and loose after a lot of wears and they never fit how they used to. This X-Fit fabric eliminates that and makes them stay pretty much exactly the same as when you first got them. I have only worn these once and so far so good but I plan to wear them a lot longer.
The wash is a pretty dark blue called Liberty. I usually get a bit repetitive when reviewing the same dark blue shades of denim but these have some character to them. The wash makes the fabric look like it has depth and it's quite bright. It also has subtle whiskering on the lap area and a slight, very slight, fading on the knee area which makes the jeans look a lot nicer. It makes them seem like they mould to your body more because the fading and whiskering is in the correct place. They also feature little faded lines around the front pocket area and the DL1961 trademark logo on the top right of the back right pocket.
A lot of celebs have become a fan of the brand over the last half a year and I know why. They do make amazing jeans, especially for comfort, these are super comfortable and so soft! I love that about them! I would definitely recommend the brand to anyone wanting a pair of classic 12″ skinny jeans that don't end up sagging. They are wonderful! Buy these jeans online for $178.

Denim Review: Goldsign Misfit jeans in Chimie
This weeks review is on a pair of Goldsign Misfit jeans in Chimie which I got sent from the brand. I haven't ever tried Goldsign before but I do know quite a lot about the brand so it's nice to finally wear a pair.
These are supposed to be a straight leg slim fitting jean but I got sent a sample pair and I think the sizing is wrong as the 27 fits me more like a boyfriend jean. I think this shows how versatile they are though, they can fit really slim like they are supposed to or they can still look good worn loose like a boyfriend jean. I find a lot of jeans that are supposed to fit skinny and tight look really bad worn loosely because they are not cut right, but these look fine. I also cuffed the hems as they are quite long, they would be fine if they were worn with heels but since I am wearing flats they definitely need cuffing. I also think boyfriend jeans look best cuffed.
Even though this is a grey wash, it does attract fluff. I usually find it happens with black jeans the most but if you have pets in the house make sure you store these away as they will be a pair that picks up all the hairs. It's nothing negative about the jeans though, it happens a lot of the time and it can't be helped! I do like the wash though, it's nice to do a grey wash as I am used to doing the blues or coloured denim. It's a grey that has some depth to it because it has whiskering and lighter areas on it.
I can't really tell a lot from these about how flattering the back pocket placement is because they don't fit me tightly but from what I have seen on fit models and celebs, they look really good. The forward stitching details on the belt loops and tops of the pockets are really cute too, I like that detail on them! They are comfortable as well. Are any of you a fan of Goldsign and want to comment your opinion on them too? Buy these jeans at Diani for $235.

Skip to comments.10 Reasons Why Vladimir Putin Supports George W. Bush
Posted on 11/03/2004 5:00:22 PM PST by A. Pole
click here to read article
I did not allude to the entire Orthodox Church. Read again more sloooooooowly.
"Like Josef Stalin - and Kennedy - the cult of personality."
Lenny Kravitz
Umm, Kennedy was a Democrat.
First of all, it's the government's responsibility to prevent these things from happening. And Moskow's official position was that no military hardware was being supplied to Iraq. As such the burden of proof is on Putin to show that he's blameless - that he did everything reasonably within his powers to put a stop to it. The evidence of that is wanting, unless someone can point to any reports of prosecutions of those companies and their officials for their activities. Their response to our inquiries was to deny that any such thing was happening, and to not-so-subtly accuse us of setting up a "humanitarian catastrophe" in Iraq.
It shoud be further remembered that the Russian government, right along with the French, was heavily involved in back-door oil contracts with the Iraqi regime.
Oh, not the whole Russian Orthodox Church was co-opted by the Commies - so how exactly will the partial co-option of the ROC help Russia's pull off "prescribed geopolitical direction"? You would think such a plan would work better with whole Church working for this secret Russian plan.
That's a good one. Congrats!
Thank you. I have been trying to enlighten these people into understanding their buying into the liberal Russian propaganda, but they are having a hard time.

Mosgiel-Taieri Community Board chairman Bill Feather said
people had been complaining about the general untidiness of
the sign for some time.
He had been approached by the Mosgiel Lions Club, which had
expressed interest in restoring the sign.
The community board supported the concept of tidying up the
sign and agreed the population figure should be removed from
the sign, as the boundaries of the township were too fluid.
Mr Feather said the Lions Club would look into the project
Some thought would be put into whether the sign should be
sited with the information board in nearby Gladstone Rd.

Negaativa is a trio of female Brazilian Portuguese rappers, Mary Juana, Jamille, and Filipe. In a funk scene dominated by their male counterparts Negaativa has been able to secure some success. Their lyrical content covers a variety of topics, from issues of racism in their homeland to the importance of condom use. The lyrical content in their music is a direct reflection of the oppressed life that they live as lower class blacks in Brazil. Though, just as all of their Brazilian counterparts, Negaativa's lyrics are open for interpretation by all who listen to them.[1][2][3]

Transformers: Till All Are One a 'very human' story
May 19th: IDW is launching a third monthly ongoing Transformers comic.
Unlike More than Meets the Eye and the former Robots in Disguise titles, set respectively in deep space and on Earth, the new series - Transformers: Till All Are One - will focus on Cybertron and the struggles of various characters who are attempting to reunite the planet following millions of years of civil war.
Writer Mairghread Scott (of Windblade fame) told Newsarama: "I like to think we're the most 'human' of the Transformers books. Till All Are One is first and foremost the struggle of imperfect people trying to (re)build a world together."
Core characters will be Starscream, who has reinvented himself for the peacetime era as a slippery, conniving politician and leader, and the noble Windblade has "found herself increasingly pushed into morally grey areas for the greater good", says Scott. Fan favourites, the Combaticons will also guest star. The series will be stocked by the OneShallStand store - go here to preorder it.
What if Prime didn't die in Transformers the Movie?
December 26th: The death of Optimus Prime was one of the big defining moments of Transformers The Movie, which incidently celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2016. A one off comic from IDW in March will explore how differently the events of the Movie would have played out if Prime had survived his fight to the death with Megatron. Would the Autobots still have survived their darkest hour or would Unicron have been unstoppable? The 40-page issue is part of IDW's five week 'deviations' event looking at how popular franchises - Transformers, GI Joe, Turtles, Ghostbusters, X-Files etc - could have turned out very different.
Optimus Prime: Earth's saviour... or conqueror?
December 26th: Optimus Prime has got the whole world in his hands in this cover for the landmark Transformers ongoing fiftieth issue. The double-sized comic, written by series regular John Barber and released in February, begins a new multi-part story which promises long lasting repurcussions. Optimus Prime declares Earth to be part of Cybertron's Council of Worlds sparking war with the Decepticons and the humans. Will he be the planet's "saviour or a dangerous demagogue"? With Megatron now good, is it possible Prime is turning bad? Issue 50 and onwards hold the answers. Order them here.
Sins of the Wreckers return to haunt Transformers fans!
September 6th: Great news! IDW has announced that the ever talented Nick Roche is writing and drawing a sequel to the 2010 classic Last Stand of the Wreckers. The new five part series, Sins of the Wreckers, kicks off in November and can be ordered via the OneShallStand store. As Nick recently said on Twitter: "I am currently drawing a genuinely bonkers, never-seen-before in a TF comic sequence. Sins consumes me."
The machiavellian Prowl has been captured and his dark secrets are returning to haunt the Autobots. Enter the elite commando unit The Wreckers, plus special guest stars Arcee and Kup! Book your copy of this one ASAP!

Type 2 Diabetes Linked to Difficulties With Mental Tasks
Jan. 26, 2000 (Boston) -- Older women with type 2 diabetes are more likely to have problems with memory, concentration, and general mental tasks than nondiabetic women, according to CDC researchers.
Men were not included in the study, which was part of a larger overall study of the consequences of fractures in women with osteoporosis, but the findings would likely apply to them as well, the researchers tell WebMD.
In a six-year study of more than 9,500 women aged 65 and over, women with type 2 diabetes scored lower on three cognitive (mental-function) tests and had a greater rate of decline in mental function over 3-6 years than did women without diabetes.
The study also showed that women who had diabetes for 15 years or longer were most likely to have experienced a decline in abilities such as attention, language, and eye-hand coordination, write Edward W. Gregg, PhD, and colleagues. The results of the study appear in the Jan. 24 issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine.
"Our finding of an increased risk of cognitive decline associated with diabetes has important clinical, public health, and social ramifications. Cognitive impairment may be considered a potential long-term outcome of diabetes that clinicians should be aware of while taking care of older adults with diabetes," they write.
Earlier studies have led the researchers to expect some differences in mental function between diabetic and nondiabetic women. "What did come as something of a surprise, though, was that there's a 70% increased risk of a major decline on average, and that people who are taking insulin had a higher risk of cognitive decline. We don't think it was the insulin itself, but rather that insulin use was a marker of severity of disease," says Gregg, a researcher with the CDC's division of diabetes translation.
Gregg tells WebMD that although it is still unclear exactly how diabetes might affect mental processes, the best course of action for patients with type 2 diabetes may be to follow their doctors' advice and carefully control their blood sugar levels through the right combination of diet, exercise, medication, and, if necessary, insulin.

In this original action in the Court of Appeals, a commercial property owner, Laurence Wolf, challenged the city of Detroit's Solid Waste Inspection Fee. The SWIF was authorized by § 22-2-56 of the City Code and inaugurated by the city on May 23, 2007. Wolf claimed that, under the standards set forth in
Bolt v City of Lansing
, 459 Mich 152 (1998), the SWIF is a tax, rather than a fee, and that it violates the Headlee Amendment, Const 1963, art 9, § 31: "Units of Local Government are hereby prohibited from levying any tax not authorized by law or charter when this section is ratified or from increasing the rate of an existing tax above the rate authorized by law or charter when this section is ratified, without the approval of a majority of the qualified electors of that unit of Local Government voting thereon." Wolf moved for summary disposition, arguing that there is no genuine issue of material fact that the SWIF is anything other than a tax. Wolf also sought class certification and filed a motion for sanctions. The city argued that the SWIF is a fee for a regulatory purpose, not a disguised tax.
After considering the evidence and briefs presented by the parties, the Court of Appeals held in a published opinion that the SWIF is a valid fee and not a hidden tax. The Court of Appeals applied the
standard to conclude: (1) that the SWIF serves a regulatory purpose – "to ensure the efficient removal of solid waste products and to protect the public health by reducing blight and illegal dumping"; (2) that the SWIF is "reasonably proportionate to the direct and indirect costs of providing the service for which the fee is charged"; (3) that the SWIF is voluntary; and (4) that the defendant's inclusion of the SWIF on the property owner's tax bill, and the fact that the defendant may place a lien on the parcel in the amount of the fee, does not make the SWIF a tax. In a separate order, the Court of Appeals denied Wolf's motion for summary disposition and entered summary disposition in the city of Detroit's favor. The appellate panel also held that the motion for class certification was moot, and the court denied Wolf's motion for sanctions for vexatious proceedings. Wolf appeals.

(Actually I'm using 2.8.5 not 2.8.4)
Got a strange problem that I've never had before.
I have a custom field. When I create a new post, I add the title, content etc. and then choose my custom field, assign it's value and update it. At this point, I am taken to a new, blank post editor. The top banner says "Custom Field Updated".
I can navigate to Edit Posts where it has saved a draft. Editing this draft, everything behaves as expected.
It's hardly a disaster but the client will possibly run into difficulty with such a quirk. Any ideas on what is happening?

At Fox TV, a Hot Spot for a Hotshot
By BERNARD WEINRAUB
Published: December 29, 1999
HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 28— Seventeen years ago, when he was just out of college, Sandy Grushow was hired as an intern by Tom Sherak, a top executive at the 20th Century Fox film studio.
''Sandy carried ads from one office to another, and he ran faster than any other messenger,'' Mr. Sherak, now chairman of the company's Domestic Film Group, recalled. ''He was like a sponge. He took everything in.''
Mr. Sherak remembered calling another executive, Jack Brodsky, with a request about the young Mr. Grushow. ''I want you to give him a job because someday we'll all be working for him,'' he said.
And he wasn't far wrong.
Mr. Grushow, now 39, was appointed chairman of the Fox Television Entertainment Group last month. He will also continue in the job he has had for nearly three years as head of Fox's television production arm, the most successful in the business with 20 series featured on various broadcast networks.
The combination of jobs puts Mr. Grushow in the highest tier of television power, a tribute, supporters say, to his astute marketing skills and trustworthiness in a watch-your-back industry. Others attribute his success, at least in part, to steely ambition and confidence.
Whatever the case, he is in the middle of at least a couple of story lines worthy of television mini-series. The first is the pressure to revive a once high-flying network where former executives, including Mr. Grushow at one point, have fallen more quickly than Fox's recent ratings.
The second is his ability to deal with what some talent agents and producers view as an ominous trend in television. This is the appointment of a single executive or executive team to two jobs with a built-in potential for conflict of interest, the management both of a network and of a studio that sells programming to its competitors.
While trying to find the best shows for the Fox network, Mr. Grushow, in his role at the Fox studio, will be selling series to competitors. Then he will be in the business of making programming choices for his network to combat Fox studio shows broadcast elsewhere.
It is a situation that the two top executives at ABC Television (owned by Walt Disney), who run the network as well as Disney television operations, are also dealing with.
But where the ABC team explicitly wants to turn out shows for its own network first, Mr. Grushow says he can tend to Fox and make his competitors happy as well.
''Our job is to stay the No. 1 studio in terms of producing successful and profitable prime-time hits for all six broadcast networks,'' he said. ''If a writer we're involved with has an idea for the Fox network, then it'll probably wind up at Fox. If it's not for the Fox network, it won't.
''You have to play it as cleanly as possible.''
Seated in his office, dapper, compact and bespectacled, he described his new challenge at the network bluntly: ''Our ratings are down. A number of shows are aging. This has been a long time in the making.''
The network flourished in the early 1990's but has floundered in a swirl of competition, executive turmoil and bad decisions.
The network's struggle is to recapture the youthful, minority and hip audiences that have, to some degree, abandoned Fox for networks like the WB (mostly girls) and UPN (mostly boys) as well as cable stations like Comedy Central, MTV, BET and E. Successful and innovative Fox shows are aging, among them the animated shows ''The Simpsons'' and ''King of the Hill,'' reality-based series like ''Cops,'' youth-oriented shows like ''Beverly Hills 90210'' and ''Party of Five,'' and the drama ''X-Files.''
Fox has fallen behind NBC and ABC this year among 18- to 49-year-olds. Even CBS, which traditionally appeals to older audiences, is crowding Fox.
''Clearly there's been some backsliding,'' Mr. Grushow acknowledged. 'We've got to return to our roots.
''The goal really is to get people's attention by doing shows that are distinctive, that are inherently noisy, that are unique, that speak with an alternative voice,'' he said.
The revolving executive door at the network, which is owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, seems almost dizzying. Mr. Grushow himself was ousted as Fox's top television programmer in 1994 by Mr. Murdoch, who wanted to expand and diversify the network's audience beyond young people. This, said two former top employees, was a mistaken calculation carried out in a difficult if not poisonous corporate atmosphere that grinds away at executives.
While rival television executives regard Mr. Grushow's new job as a vindication for him after his most embarrassing professional moment, Mr. Grushow brushed aside such notions.
But one top television executive who knows him said: ''Sandy's a driven, ambitious person who wants to rectify the one failure of his life. He wants to purge that failure.''
Mr. Grushow sounds characteristically confident that he can restore Fox, although he acknowledges that television's declining audience makes the task more difficult.
''You've got dozens of cable networks today that didn't exist before,'' he said. ''You've got the Internet. You've got networks like the WB that have taken a page out of the Fox playbook and virtually built a successful network on the back of that one genre, young ensemble dramas. Today's very competitive environment makes it harder than ever to stand out in the crowd.''

Let me prefix this by saying I'm not entirely clear on how multicast works. I have the gist of it, but not the underlying functionality.
A customer has configured a RHEL6 cluster between two Jboss nodes. Multicast is configured and I can ping 22.214.171.124 getting a response from both servers in the group. What I cannot do is ping each individual multicast IP assigned to each server.
Example: Server 1 is 184.108.40.206 and server 2 is 220.127.116.11. I can ping neither of those IPs from the other.
Is this what I should expect to see? Only being able to ping the 188.8.131.52 IP and not the others? Am I supposed to configure the route to be on the same subnet as the multicast IPs or does 126.96.36.199 cover all subnet ranges?

The 2013 SEC Football Schedules were officially announced today. Conference play begins on Aug. 31 when Ole Miss travels to face Vanderbilt.
Featured 2013 non-conference match-ups include Alabama vs. Virginia Tech (at Atlanta, GA), Arkansas at Rutgers, Washington State at Auburn, Florida at Miami (FL), Georgia at Clemson, Louisville at Kentucky, LSU vs. TCU (at Arlington, TX), Mississippi State vs. Oklahoma State (at Houston, TX), Missouri at Indiana, Ole Miss at Texas, North Carolina at South Carolina, Tennessee at Oregon, SMU at Texas A&M, and Vanderbilt at Ohio State.
From the SEC:
The 2013 schedule is considered a "bridge" schedule and not based on any other previous or future scheduling formats. The SEC Athletics Directors will convene in Spring 2013 to begin formulating schedules for the 2014 season and beyond.
"As we began working on the 2013 football schedule, it became apparent that the conference would need another year of the 'bridge' schedule to make everything work," said SEC Commissioner Mike Slive. "I appreciate the SEC transition team and our athletics directors, who came together to put this schedule in place. We look forward to starting with our new scheduling rotation in 2014."
The eight-game conference schedule consists of six games played inside the division and two games against teams from the opposite division. The cross-divisional common opponents that were previously announced by the conference will not take place until 2014.
In order to maintain a balanced schedule for the 2014 season and beyond, there are three games that will have repeat hosts from the 2012 schedule. Those games are Ole Miss at Alabama, Texas A&M at Ole Miss and Georgia at Auburn.
The 2013 SEC Championship Game will be played at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta on Saturday, Dec. 7.

2013 SEC Championship Game (at Atlanta, GA)
I thought Texas A&M-South Carolina and Missouri-Arkansas were supposed to be every year
they will starting in 2014
I was thinking the same thing?…why would ark mizzou not have a annual series?…..
They won't be having it until the season of 2014.
this link says it all….why SEC?
i thought we had this worked out already
So much for Ohio State opening with Vandy next year.
DAFUQ, if tennesseee plays oregon, florida plays miami, bama plays va tech, georgia plays clemson, and m-state plays okla state,ole miss plays texas, and auburn plays w-state, mizzou plays indiana, and lsu plays tcu, and scar plays unc then vandy can play ohio state.
Nothing like the SEC playing cupcakes.
Uga vs. Clemson and Ga Tech
Florida vs Miami and FSU
Alabama vs. Va. Tech
South Carolina vs. Clemson
oh I'm sorry those are ACC schools so you're right… cupcakes
WHOAH BACK UP… tennessee playing oregon, vandy playing ohio state, florida at miami, those arent cupkakes
NO team in any level of football should play 3 consecutive road games. South Carolina shouldn't have to do that.
uga basically is…. scar, ky this week, and jax next week
Texas A&M plays at Auburn, at Mississippi State and at Alabama starting next week.
next season looks like AU is doing that too
Oct. 19 – at Texas A&M
Nov. 2 – at Arkansas
Nov. 9 – at Tennessee
even though they have an off week between A&M and Arkansas that is still tough
Alabama is playing two FCS teams? Wow. #1 team in the country huh?
Actually, Georgia State will be FBS/Sun Belt in 2013.
as and Auburn fan I hate the tide
but Kyle pay attention to the world of college football before you type
georgia state isnt gonna be an fcs team for long, theyre going to C-USA in 2013. tennessee had to play em this year and we won 51-10
an not and
the Tide would beat the Browns so yes they are #1 Kyle
Anyone have an idea why ole miss plays LSU midway threw the season next year? Instead of second to last.
Why does ole Miss's first five games only include 1 home game???
Cause the last seven games only has one away game
Missouris got a freakin cupcake schedule! The only team they have a chance at losing to is Florida.
And maybe Ole Miss on a very good day….since they are playing in Oxford.
Since they totally beat South Carolina, Georgia, and Vanderbilt this year. But yea the Gators will be the team to take down the mighty tigers next year. Come on. I agree they are playing some wack non conference teams but they are going to be at the bottom of the bag in the East as well as the rest of the SEC
and tennessees getting their payback, and tamu is crush mizzou.
Why isn't the band travling with the team?
Where is the Aggie Band?
bama, georgia, and florida suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha sikeeeee
Don't think so buddy
better than 2012/2013 schudule. way better
Mark Stoops in the BBN baby woooooo. Kentucky should do great this year 7-5 Minimum.
Alabama isnt going nowhere for along time so get ready for us too roll tidewin this year and next hell prob untill nick retires :)
The whole thing got screwy whenever TAMU cried and threw a hissy like a little 3 yr old and then got moved over to the SEC…money, money, money, thats what it was all about… I think the powers that be done it just to shut them up…. the REAL reason is because they got tired of UT in Austin kicking the doody out of their arses everytime they met on the gridiron. I was ONCE a TAMU fan…even done some construction on their campuses…was once a fan of the BIG 12…NO LONGER!!! I am SEC and ALABAMA ROLL TIDE ALL they way now, BABYYY!!!!! GO 'BAMA!!! KICK the doody outta TAMU in 2013!!! And if anyone questions my comments… I feel I have all the right to say them because I live only 50 minutes fr the nasty smelly stinking campus.
Missouri got blow out by South Carolina this past season 31-10 so bama fan#1 do your homework before you open your mouth
Obviously Florida, LSU, Tex A&M, and Alabama are the best teams in the SEC and the Country. Getting tired of this Georgia bull crap schedule… hey if they wanna play a Vandy or Tennessee team and win by 30 and call it a big game for the schedule then by all means lets put them in the top 5??? Thats stupid… Im a LSU fan and Im sorry but Georgia doesn't play ANYONE except florida and us every millennium! Us and Florida deserve to be called great teams for our schedules. Forget Georgia.
As a UGA fan, I remember the last JAX meeting, and I vaguely remember details about Florida's last bowl game. It was an embarassment to the SEC. They did not belong where they were all season. Hell UF got all they wanted from Bowling Green too.
Bowling Green? Really? What about getting a scare from a woeful Kentucky and Tennessee team? Florida blew both out. Florida's bowl game resulted from a lack of who they were playing…they expected an Oklahoma team and I garuntee they would have been better prepared, but they played a good Louisville squad. And next year when Georgia goes 8-5 loosing to LSU, Florida, Clemson, GA Tech, and Vandy…they'll be right back where they should be in the SEC.. the bottom.
Well I wanna see a college team play against a pro team lol
Lsu and georgia is going to be good September 28

Emanuel Cites Wedding Dress to Show Chicago Residency
Rahm Emanuel, President Barack Obama's former chief of staff, testified about his wife's wedding dress, family china and car registrations to prove that he meets a residency requirement to run for mayor of Chicago.
"I was planning on coming home and I wanted to go back into the home," Emanuel said at a public hearing today at the Cook County Administration Building.
The Emanuels left china, photo albums and the dress at their Chicago home when they moved to Washington in 2009, he said today. He can't live in the house while exploring a mayoral bid because he hasn't been able to persuade the tenant in his 2,719-square-foot (252 square meters) home to move out before the lease expires in June. The tenants are Robert and Lori Halpin, according to lease documents Emanuel provided to the Chicago Board of Election Commissioners.
"It was for the safety and security of the house," Emanuel said, explaining why he rented his home on Chicago's North Side while working in Washington. Emanuel had been answering questions for about five hours as of 2:30 p.m. Chicago time.
Emanuel, 51, is seeking to succeed retiring Mayor Richard M. Daley. Other candidates include U.S. Representative Danny Davis; Illinois state Senator James Meeks, minister of one of Chicago's largest churches; City Clerk Miguel del Valle; former Chicago school board President Gery Chico; and former U.S. Senator and New Zealand Ambassador Carol Moseley Braun.
Emanuel amended his 2009 Illinois tax return after indicating he was only a part-time resident.
"I'm not an accountant," he said during the hearing.
Citing Axelrod
Emanuel and his wife, Amy Rule, wrote in a filing on Nov. 24 that amended returns made clear they were full-year residents of Illinois in 2009, according to a Chicago Sun-Times report on Dec. 12. They said they were also full-year residents in the state this year, the newspaper reported.
David Axelrod, a senior adviser to Obama, kept his Chicago house without renting it, unlike Emanuel, said Burt Odelson, the attorney leading the drive to get Emanuel kicked off the mayoral ballot.
Emanuel lined up backing from executives of major Chicago-area companies. A Nov. 15 fundraiser for him was co-hosted by Glenn Tilton, United Continental Holdings Inc. non-executive chairman, and Miles White, chief executive officer of Abbott Laboratories, among others.
Budget Woes
Daley, 68, said Sept. 7 that he wouldn't seek re-election to a seventh term. The City Council on Nov. 17 passed his 2011 budget of $6.15 billion, closing a $654 million deficit in part by asking union workers to join non-union employees in taking furlough days.
The next mayor may have to target city workers for firings and benefit cuts because of Chicago's escalating employee costs, which comprise 83 percent of its $3.26 billion general fund for fiscal 2011. The city has repeatedly tapped reserve funds to balance its budget, leading Standard & Poor's to cut Chicago's credit rating on Nov. 5 by one level to A+, the fifth highest grade.
Following Emanuel's questioning, the public will be invited to submit written comments that will be "a matter of public record," Joseph A. Morris, the hearing officer overseeing the matter for the election board, said today.
Morris said he will issue a non-binding recommendation to the board sometime this week. Their vote will decide if Emanuel will be allowed to continue his mayoral bid.
The losing party has a week to file an appeal with the circuit court, Jim Allen, a spokesman for the board, wrote in an e-mail today.
Emanuel is a former U.S. congressman whose district comprised parts of the city's north side and northwest suburbs.

For Hormone Replacement Therapy, One High-Dose Size May Not Fit All
By KATHLEEN McAULIFFE
Published: June 25, 2000
NOWADAYS, it seems as if only people with a Ph.D. in epidemiology -- and preferably circus experience -- can juggle all the pros and cons of hormone replacement therapy (H.R.T.), much less make sense of all the conflicting reports.
As if the choices the treatment itself poses weren't complicated enough, now medical researchers are challenging the popular notion that the same-size dose fits all women. That means the million-dollar question facing women of menopausal age -- do I or don't I? -- may soon be eclipsed by an even trickier one: how much is right for me? The answer to the latter question could determine the response to the former, for dose has a direct bearing on the treatment's side effects, long-term safety and likely benefits.
Think back to the birth control pill, circa 1960 -- the one that caused a massive outbreak of swollen breasts, bloating and depression and even triggered life-threatening complications like blood clots. It is now common knowledge that the high doses of hormones were to blame for this epidemic. Today's birth control pill, which contains 5 times less estrogen and 10 times less progestin, is generally considered safe and is tolerated by most women.
Hormone therapy may be evolving along a similar path. Despite its sizable health perks -- relief from menopausal symptoms, stronger bones and possible cardiovascular benefits -- as many as two-thirds of women who start H.R.T. stop the treatment within two years. Side effects are the major reasons that women cite, with many complaining of mood swings, tender breasts, water retention, irregular bleeding or just plain feeling ''crummy.'' Concern that long-term use of hormones might raise the risk of breast cancer has further dampened women's enthusiasm for hormone therapy.
What is clearly needed ''is a safer, gentler, more acceptable form of H.R.T.,'' said Dr. Bruce Ettinger, an endocrinologist and senior investigator at Kaiser Permanente Medical Program in Oakland, Calif. To that end, Dr. Ettinger and researchers nationwide have been studying how women on hormone therapy respond to reductions of 50 percent or more in the standard prescription of estrogen (typically 0.625 milligrams of Premarin). Less progestin is also given because its sole purpose in the treatment is to counter estrogen's tendency to promote cancer in the uterus.
The picture that is emerging from this research is intriguing, suggesting that a woman's need for estrogen shifts as she ages. As the investigators acknowledge, women experiencing a turbulent change of life frequently do require full-strength H.R.T. for symptom relief. But women whose symptoms have subsided or who are not bothered by menopause may be able to gain long-term benefits with fewer side effects by switching to a half-dose regimen. This approach appears to maintain sufficient bone mass to stave off fractures of osteoporosis, an often crippling disease that affects 22 million American women. More tentatively, low-dose regimens may help lower cholesterol and improve other parameters of cardiovascular health.
Still, the research is new, and critical questions remain unanswered. It is not known whether low-dose H.R.T. will offer any protection against heart disease. Indeed, new research has raised questions about the cardiovascular benefits of full-dose H.R.T. At currently prescribed doses, hormone therapy dramatically increases coronary blood flow, which is normally viewed as a positive change. But in some susceptible individuals, it can trigger blood clots, strokes or heart attacks. A reduced dose of estrogen, clinicians theorize, would be less likely to overload the cardiovascular system and trigger the coronary events that the therapy was to prevent.
Similarly, more conservative doses are expected to carry less risk of breast cancer than full-dose H.R.T., but it could take decades to determine this.
It does appear, though, that low-dose hormone therapy can often provide relief from the symptoms of menopause. In a study conducted by Dr. Ettinger, 138 women who had been using the standard amount of H.R.T. for an average of nine years were switched to a half-strength dose of estrogen and were given progestin less frequently (for 14 days once every six months rather than monthly). Only 7 percent of subjects experienced a surge in hot flashes, leading them to drop out of the trial. The majority reported complete or substantial relief from menopausal symptoms, and 85 percent preferred the lower dose.
Studies exploring the effects of low-dose hormone therapy on bone density are also encouraging. In a three-year trial involving 108 women age 65 and older, researchers at Creighton University in Omaha gave participants half-strength H.R.T. with a daily supplement of calcium and vitamin D. Subjects' spine bone mass increased by an average of 5 percent. ''That rivals the results you get at high doses of Premarin,'' said Dr. Robert Recker, director of Creighton's Osteoporosis Research Center and the lead investigator.
Reported side effects in the women, many of whom were using hormone therapy for the first time in their 70's and 80's, were so mild as to be virtually indistinguishable from a placebo group. That is noteworthy. Clinicians, Dr. Recker said, ''were told without adequate data that the minimum dose for protecting bones was .625 milligrams of estrogen, yet at the same time such a high dose was not tolerated in the elderly.'' The addition of calcium may be the secret to why less estrogen can be so effective. Dr. B. Lawrence Riggs, a professor of medicine at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., and an expert on hormone replacement therapy, said estrogen boosts bones' absorption of calcium and prevents its leakage through the kidneys.

The U.S. Supreme Court may have struck down the federal Defense of Marriage Act, but the ruling doesn't do much here, where marriage is restricted to one man and one woman.
Arizona isn't forced to recognize gay marriages performed in other states, nor is it required to offer couples state benefits.
If we want to change, that power will come at the ballot box. Which means an initiative to allow gay marriage just became a lot more important.
A group called Equal Marriage Arizona is collecting signatures to take its plea to voters in 2014. Even before the Supreme Court decision, it claimed to have collected $100,000 for the effort.
I'm ready to see Arizona's marriage provision go back to the ballot, and clearly, so are a lot of other people. As I noted in a recent blog, the argument proponents are making about individual freedom will be fascinating to watch play out among the state's conservative voters.
