Released: Apr 01st, 2004
Running Time: 147
Director: D Sanchez
Company: Bang Productions
Cast: Kobi, Kelly (I), Steven (I), Douglas Sanchez, Natalie (I), Maria (I), Morgan (I), Others
Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Specialty
Geared to fans of older women shot gonzo style.
Douglas Sanchez and his buddies drive around in a van and pick women up on the street. Shot gonzo style, Sanchez talks to the women, asks them questions and gestures with his free hand. Then the girls get in the van and fuck in the back, taking it in the back door. The women range in age from Kelly at 32 to Natalie at 41, though Maria claims to be 27 on camera despite the box claiming she is 34. Maria, who is "discovered" on the beach and not on the street, has enormous natural boobs, somewhere in the mid forties and definitely DD. They jiggle and swing as she fucks doggie-style.
Fans of gonzo will probably find Sanchez' style amusing, but other viewers will more than likely find him to be annoying. The quality of the video and DVD are both poor, with many of the shots too dark to see, and close-ups of the advertised anal action few, far between and blacker than an unlit room. The DVD also has a very difficult to navigate menu with no extras.

|Kristin and Karanveer
Inroduction:The Haida ("HIGH-da") Tribe has been an important part of life in Canada for a very long time. They have an extremely unique way of living many of us never experienced before. This tribe lived in the Pacific Northwest Coast (most of British Columbia) and maybe still even today. They definitely gone through many obstacles and challenges we never thought about. Even though their way of life may be different than our modern day lives, they're still a group of amazing and important people we should recognize!
European Settlers:The Haida tribe settled in the Canadian Queen Charlotte Islands. There were over 124 villages but when the European settlers arrived in 1604, there was only 589 Haidas left. Now there is only 2 villages left. Throughout 1780 to 1830 the Haidas attacked the Europeans and Americans. During the war with the Europeans the Haidas stole about half a dozen ships. One of them were named Eleanor and another was named Susan Sturgis.
You might live in the North Pole, I might live in the desert, but where did the Haida people live? They lived in the Pacific Northwest coast, a great place because of the good temperature. It wasn't too cold or too hot. The particular places the Haida people lived in were the southern Alaska. They lived in the islands near the coast. Another place was the northwest of British Columbia, like Prince of Wales Island. Altogether these places were called the Haida Gwaii archipelago or the Queen Charolette Islands.
They usually lived around bodies of water, mainly the ocean. It was a good place since fishing was they're main source of food. Since the temperatures were mild and calm, they could fish all year! Plus, they also lived near deep and dense forests. Most forests were made up of cedar trees and spruce, which they used to build and make things. They probably had a lot of time since shelter and food was easy to get. Since they had a lot of materials, they probably used it wisely. There were many rocky and rugged coast lines and mountains near villages. They also had wide and narrow beaches with lots of islands, too. The west coast had lots of fjords (water surronded by cliffs). As for the climate, they had cool winters and warm summers. Currently, most of the Pacific coast is made up of B.C. (British Columbia) See? The Haida people are truly interesting and important.
The Haida tribe had many different types of food to choose from. To get food we would go to the grocery store and we would buy the food but the Haida tribe has to go get their own food so they had many resources that helped them to get food. The Haida tribe fished, hunted and gathered the food they needed. The Haida tribe never wasted any of the food, they either ate it all or used it as unique items. They used tools and equipment to help catch the food. When fishing they would use big nets and snare traps made out of cedar and spruce tree wood and bark they also would take a basket to put the fish in . When hunting they made bows and arrows to catch food from a distance. The Haida women would gather plants that they could eat in the summer. The men always did the fishing and the hunting and the rest of the tribe would stay back at the village. Sometimes the women would go and gather the food in the forests. When the men were gone off hunting they would have been away for a while but the tribe back at the village don't need to worry about the men being gone for a while because they would have the food in the storage house. Some people might ask " how do they store the meat for so long"? Well, the Haida tribe would dry and then ground the meat so that it lasts longer.
|fishing line
The Haida tribe would fish for many fish and other sea mammals like crab, oysters, pacific smelt, humpback whales, sea otters, seals, turtles, euchalon fish and the most common fish they ate were pacific salmon. The pacific salmon were mostly caught by the Haida tribe. In the fall they would go up the river to find the pacific salmon in huge bundles. When they went hunting they caught elk, mountain goats, bears and black-tailed deer.
When the women went to gather things from the forest they got berries, herbs and roots of plants.
Shelter:The Haida tribe had many big homes. The Haida tribe had permanent homes that were called longhouses. Several families, lived in one longhouse. The longhouses were mostly constructed out of cedar planks and had totempoles in corners for support. One longhouse was 50-150ft long and 20-60ft wide.
To build a longhouse, the Haida tribe did the following things:
1. They had to gather huge cedar logs and planks
2. The frame would then be built out of cedar logs
3. Cedar planks were attached to logs and wooden pegs to hold the wood together
4. They made huge rectangle homes with many posts to hold up the roof and covered them with cedar planks
5. No windows were made in their homes only one smokehole and one front door built in the totempole, and was built with low roofs to keep the heat in
The Haida tribe constructed their home near water and forest for natural resources. Each home contained 50 people. The Haida tribe was divided into different clans and each house had one clan. Each clan was named after something important to them (raven/eagle/bear/wolf). They're quite interesting people. This is about the Haida homes
What the Haida Clothes were made out of
|Wool Coat
|Cedar Bark Cape
|A Haida Dress
|Spruce Hat
How do the Haidas make their clothes
|another type of dress with leggings
The Haida woman made the clothing. First they either soaked the animal skins and cedar bark in hot water. Then they would weave it into dresses, robes and leggings. They also wove roots or reeds into pieces of fabric that they would later on make more of. Then they would sew the different pieces of fabric to make capes.
Arts:The Haida tribe used art for many things. They would use art in ceremonies, clothing, and sometimes even to decorate themselves. In front of the Haida tribes houses they had large wooden carvings of animals and humans, these are called totem poles.
|bent wood box
The picture to your left is a painted longhouse and totem poles. A totem pole helps describe the families that live inside the longhouse. The women of the Haida tribe would have made hats that are made out of cedar bark. Then the hats were given to the men and they would paint different animals on them. The women would also make baskets for collecting clams and oysters in them and they were also made of cedar bark and was painted sometimes. The Haida tribe members would also make masks of the animals for ceremonies. The tribe made bentwood boxes for food to be stored and it was painted.
Tools & Weapons:Haida fishermen used harpoons. A harpoon is almost like a spear used to fish to catch fish or large marine animals like whales. They also used bone fishooks and wooden fishtraps. Hunters used bow and arrows,and trappers used snares. If they were in war Haida men fired their bows or fought with spears and war clubs. Some Haida men wore bulky armor made of wooden rods lashed together to protect themselves from enemy archers.
Religious Beilefs:
|Haida Shamans(Holy Wise Men)
The Haida thought animals were special types of people and that animals can transform into human form.
They also believed in spirits and supernatural beings. In the after life the Haida believed that their soul turns into a ghost. If a member of the tribe was ill they thought that half of their soul disappeared. The Haida believed in reincarnation. The Haida say at death the soul goes to the land of the souls by canoe. The Haida sometimes didn't bury people because the spirits were with them. The Haida hang dead people on a tree high status would get a totem pole and places them at the top of the totem pole.
Ceremonies:The people of the Haida tribe were very spiritual. They prayed many times in one day. When the peope of the Haida tribe prayed, they gave offerings to the master of the game animals. A "potlatch" was what they called most ceremonies. Potlatches are big celebrations that take over a year to plan. The ceremony happens because of change in social status. Some examples are weddings, birth, death, and the coming of age. A potlatch has feasts, singing, and many dancers. Some of the potlatches the Haida had lasted from 2-3 weeks. The person that the potlatch was for received a certain gift depending on their social status. That is about the Haida tribe's ceremonies.
Family and Roles:The roles of the Haida tribe were quite different yet simliar to today's roles. The women was always a housewife, staying close to the house. Womens gathered berries, plants and herbs from nearby forests. They also wove baskets and made clothes. Sometimes they would dig for clams and shellfishes too. Womens would take care of children, cooked and cleaned. Nothing really different from a housewife. However, men did more outside work. They fished, carved, build and hunted rather than doing housewife work like womens. They also went to war to protect their families. Men were always cheif, but womens were clan leaders so it makes it a bit fair. However, there are things both men and women can do. For example, storytelling, music and artwork. Even today some families are a bit like that!
The Haida did marriage and it's still a traditon today! However, there are many rules to the Haida marriage. First, marriage must be from different clans. So if the women was in clan 1, she must marry a man from another clan. Second, the man must pay the women's father a reasonable amount of things. For example, 10 fishes or a canoe. Then the marriage starts! When the women gives birth to a child, she has to pay the guy equal to how much he paid. After the payment, the women can choose whether to stay with her husband or leave him. It bit like divorcing. Marriage can be one complicated thing.
Languages:Today, most speak English but some speak the original Haida language. Hundreds of years ago all haida's was fluent but now only 3-4 dozen speak the haida language, especially the elders who are over 70 years old. It is a very complicated language, there are sounds that you won't hear in english, but it's possible to learn!
"háw'aa" means thank you
"ts'áak means eagle
for more you can see:
http://www.haidalanguage.org/basic-phrases.html or
Transportation:The Haida Tribe were quite skilled at navigating waterways, their canoes were built strong. The Haidas canoes were carved from cedar trees. Canoes were built 80 feet tall, 50 feet long and 8 feet wide. One of the Haidas canoes can hold 2-50 people also 10.000 pounds of cargo. Smaller boats were for single families. Canoes were used to travel and used for fishing, trading and warfare. Every canoe had different canoes for each waterway. 1 war canoe holds 50-60 warriors. No animals were killed to make canoes.
Steps to make a canoe
1:cut down cedar tree
2:split log in half without cracking it
3:burn and scrape out middle
4:fill the hole with water
5:put hot rocks in water made water boil soften wood for carving
6:dump water to let wood cool
7:grease canoe with whale oil to preserve wood
Cedar timbers were tied with sinew.Paddles made of cedar trees some made with notch some were made long and pointed at end to paddle quietly when fishing.
Games/Recreation:They do they same thing as children do now, go to school and help around the house. Many Haida children like to go hunting and fishing with their fathers. In the past Indian kids had more chores and less time to play just like early colonial children. But they did have dolls, toys and games to play. They also liked gambling. Like many Native Americans Haida mothers usally carried their babies in cradleboards on their backs, a custom which many Americans have take up now.
Legends:How Bald Eagle got its name
How the Black Bear turned Black
How Cougar stayed his colour
The Colorful Eagle
How Raven got its Colour
How the Deer learned to Swim
How the Fox taught the Haida how to Hunt

Conclusion:There are alot of things still not known yet about the hadia tribe and all the other tribes too. However, on this wiki we've covered alot of stuff known so far. For example, environment, food, clothing, shelter, games, transportation and many others too. The Haida tribe were truly unquie and amazing people that we should learn and remember about. Even today the Haida's traditon is being passed from generation to generation. Though their way of life is different from our modern day style, the Haida tribe are important people that can tell the history of hundreds to thousands of years ago.

Bill: 4 years ago, blind US progressivism decided it was right to re-elect our first black president, because his skin color superseded his ability to govern. Today, we could potentially elect our first female president...when history condemns her, her words condemn her, and the blood of others cries out from the ground against her. If are more interested in "firsts" than we are in competence and moral integrity, the US has sold its soul, and will reap the benefit. And none of that is meant to give Trump a pass - am dubious of his qualification as well - but he is seeing problems the rest of our country is alarmed at, and seems ready to start a war on terror...a topic strangely missing at the DNC.

Do most modern CPUs have an MMU? How can you find out if a CPU has one or not?
All x86 architecture processors since the 80286 (both intel and AMD, and certainly including the 64-bit flavors) have an MMU, and no desktop operating system in common usage attempts to disable its use. The MMU is effectively required in order to implement virtual memory and process isolation as provided by all desktop operating systems.
There are processors used for embedded systems (and sometimes game consoles and other set-top boxes) that lack an MMU.
Yes, most modern CPUs have an MMU (see this Wikipedia article covering different CPU types)
All modern CPUs used in "normal" computers (i.e. desktops, notebooks and servers) have a MMU - as a matter of fact, all modern operating systems (the NT line of MS Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, *BSD, Solaris) require a MMU, because things like memory protection and virtual memory rely on it. So if it's a desktop/laptop running something newer than Windows 98, it definitely has an MMU.
Things are different in areas other than "normal" desktop and server computers (e.g. embedded systems, realtime systems, mainframes, microcontrollers...). There, processors without an MMU are quite common, and some systems use different mechanisms for memory protection and memory access - mechanisms which may not rely on a MMU.
tl;dr: If your computer runs Windows (XP or later), Linux, or Mac OS X, it has a MMU.
Try downloading CPU-Z and having a look there.
What I believe is that all the new AMD and INTEL CPUs have inbuilt memory controllers:
I'm not sure... but here's where I'd start: First, download Speccy, the system information tool, which shows the exact name of the processor on the system. Then, I'd search for that model on the manufacturer's website (Intel, etc.).
@OSX Jedi, good question by the way. I spent a bit more time wresltling with this, and no obvious answer was to be found on the usual sites (Google, Wikipedia, etc.). Good fodder for our local SuperUser experts!
All modern processors have a Memory Management Unit (MMU). There is no such thing as "enabling" or "disabling" MMU. When computer boots, page table is empty, and that is equivalent to MMU not existing at all. MMU comes into action when operating system kernel defines entries in its page table.
If you boot with operating system which does not use MMU, it will be the same as MMU does not exist at all, so it does not make sense to "disable" MMU.
Even if MMU is somehow disabled or does not exist, any modern operating system (MS Windows, MacOS, any Linux...) will not boot at all because it will mandatory try to use MMU.

don't you WANT some of your opiod receptors left after that?
This will only work for opioid addiction, her crack-smoking can continue unabated.
Remember that experiment where they wired up the monkey with direct electrical stimulation of the pleasure center? There was a button in the cage he could push which would give a little jolt of pure pleasure. So of course, he'd press that button as often as he could. Then they made it so that he had to press it more than once to get a jolt, and he did. So, they kept increasing the number of button pushes required to see when he'd say "Oh, fuck it--I guess it just doesn't work any more!!!"
After the count reached 20K, the researchers gave up. Poor chimpy would stay there hitting that button as fast as he could, forgoing water, food, sleep and sex.
That's what a real drug addict is like. You could burn out all the opiate receptors from AW's brain, and fuck me if she wouldn't spend the rest of her (short) life trying to find some combination of paint-thinner, banana skins and lye that wouldn't get her off.
bravo @ #1 - what if some day you need those endorphin receptors, like during surgery or post-op?
So, the way to get people off drugs -
- is to give them other drugs?
Actually, I blv the lyric is "70 days," even though she smack-shootingly pronounces it in an odd way.
Elsewhere in the song she says she "ain't gonna spend 10 weeks/have everyone think I'm on the mend."
ANR can't possibly be any stupider than 28 days of institutionalized 12-Stepping.
$12,800, if the patient is considering that the price of recovery, is probably below what a real (er... I guess I mean "traditional") treatment program would cost.
Pretty damn skeptical of this though, even if his claims are real, conquering the chemical aspects of dependency is barely half the battle. Good old-fashioned 1950's Schick-Shadel aversion therapy is probably even more effective than this.
Destroying the pleasure receptors of a junkie sounds like a great way to set that junkie up to O.D. their first day out.
Naltrexone isn't a 100% efficacious antagonist, so there's still going to be some endogenous opioid signaling going on during treatment. The idea is that you reset the opioid signaling machinery back to its pre-addiction state of equilibrium, not that you wipe it out entirely.
What the hell is a drug-free Winehouse good for? I want to see her get a smoking-dolphin tattoo on her face and fall down vomiting on the Grammys next year.
Poor Amy, she will never be able to sing again without wanting drugs.
Listening to her sing makes me want drugs, powerful painkillers.
wait a second, i thought they already tried to send her there but she said, "No, No, No..."

'Star Wars' takes box office lead over 'E.T.'
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Revitalized and re-released 20 years later, ''Star Wars'' has overtaken ''E.T. - The Extraterrestrial'' as the biggest moneymaker in U.S. box-office history.
''Star Wars,'' the creation of George Lucas, became the first film to break the $400 million domestic-gross mark this week, leapfrogging over ''E.T.'' and its $399.8 million, 20th Century Fox said Friday.
''E.T.'' director Steven Spielberg saluted the space classic by placing an advertisement in Friday's Daily Variety: ''Dear George, Congratulations for renewing the most enduring motion picture in cinema history. Your pal, Steven.''
The ad had a sketch of the tiny alien from ''E.T.' placing a crown on the head of R2D2, the chunky little robot from ''Star Wars.''
''We're like kids in a candy store. We're
floating,'' said Tom Sherak, chairman of 20th Century Fox
Domestic Film Group. ''We've relived history.''
''We're like kids in a candy store. We're floating.''

Domestic Films
The worldwide box-office leader remains Spielberg's 1993 ''Jurassic Park,'' with $913.1 million.
Up until last month, the Lucas film had made $323 million, good enough for fourth place on the list of top-grossing movies. Two weeks after being re-released, it has added more than $77 million.
''Jurassic Park'' dropped to third spot on the top domestic earnings list with $356.8 million.
''Star Wars'' is the first in a trilogy of films starring Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher as freedom fighters battling the evil lord Darth Vader (with James Earl Jones providing the memorable voice).
Lucas has burnished the film with new special effects and scenes. The ''Special Edition'' version, released Jan. 21, has drawn baby boomers to revisit the film, many accompanied by their children.
The other films in the trilogy, ''The Empire Strikes Back'' (1980) and ''Return of the Jedi'' (1983), are to be released on Feb. 21 and March 7, respectively.

One thing you can count on with purveyors of "true" heavy metal, they love themes of sci-fi, fantasy, mythology, and sword and sorcery. England's Fury is one of those bands taking the same things to exponential levels on their second long player, Lost In Space ... [ Read More ]
What most people don't understand is that UFOs are on a cosmic tourist route. That's why they're always seen in Arizona, Scotland, and New Mexico. Another thing to consider is that all three of those destinations are good places to play golf. So there's possibly some connection between aliens and golf.

Police: Man suspected of theft at CVS arrested after car won't start
STANTON Car trouble helped land a man in jail when the 23-year-old was not able to start his car after being accused of stealing from a CVS, authorities said.
The man was still sitting in the parking lot Monday trying to start his car when deputies arrived, said Lt. Roland Chacon of the Orange County Sheriff's Department.
The deputies were called at 2:18 p.m. to a CVS in the 1200 block of Beach Boulevard after receiving reports that a man grabbed several items from the shelves and ran, Chacon said.
"He was seen getting into a vehicle and apparently had trouble starting it," he said.
When deputies arrived, Louie Melendrez was still sitting inside the car and refused to get out, Chacon said.
Deputies were able to take the man out of the vehicle without incident.
Deputies found in the vehicle multiple items suspected of being stolen from the CVS, Chacon said.
Melendrez is in Men's Central Jail and was being held in lieu of $20,000 bail.

The child's parents, Kemi Green and Gbolohan Bankolemoh, enrolled their child, Abiola in a day care run by Tanya and Shawn Moon. Attorneys for the parents said the Moons falsely claimed their operation was licensed. Tanya Moon's father, Terry Moon, was also named a defendant in the lawsuit.
Plaintiffs' attorneys Jeffrey R. Harris and J. Alan Cleveland argued that while Abiola was left unattended, he fell into a pool and drowned on March 19, 2009.
Gwinnett County police said Tanya Moon found Abiola lying at the bottom of the pool after being told by another child that Abiola had gone outside.

In this image provided by NASA this is the STS-48 onboard photo of the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) in the grasp of the RMS (Remote Manipulator System) during deployment, from the shuttle in September 1991. The satellite is 35 feet long, 15 feet in diameter, weighs 13,000 pounds. U.S. space officials say they expect a dead satellite to fall to Earth in about a week. NASA has been watching the 6-ton satellite closely. NASA scientists are doing their best to tell us where a plummeting 6-ton satellite will fall later this week.

We are always being compared to Japan and Korea for test scores and performance
in schools. If you look at the NY Times article "Class Size Around the
World", Japan and Korea average 27 and 31 students per classroom

the US with larger class sizes?

As a teacher, I found that a class of 22-24 was easily managed, if I didn't have students with significant behavior problems. Too many clasrooms include students who are not able to cope with a class setting. If you have ten students, and one of them is continually disruptive, bullies other students, or in some way is a significant distraction, the other nine will be impacted (to say nothing of how that one student isn't benefitting). In fact, if all the students are reasonable in behavior and motivation, a larger class is workable. "Paras" are a great help, and are an economical way to enhance the learning environment. If there are students with significant behavior or learning difficulties, a para is needed for each one.

This hotel and suites is Good, better than Average, but a little short of Very Good. It is right across the street from the town trolley/bus, which runs pretty frequently, and a very short drive to Bearskin neck, or the beaches in Gloucester and Rockport. We stayed for 2 nights and brought our medium sized dog, which we REALLY appreciated ( and paid $30/night extra for). We also appreciate that they let our well behaved dog, stay in the room when we were out, and took our cellphone in case he needed us. This alone is worth SO much to us. Most of the staff were friendly when necessary, though most of them not especially so. The facility is in good shape and clean. The room we stayed in had a slight odor of beach hotel ( damp-must) but compared to many hotels, not too bad. Other than that, the room was very clean and well maintained. I guess the only thing that disappointed me was, that despite the fact that they did not appear to be sold out at anytime during our stay, the woman who checked us in was adamant that check in is at 3 PM, and that she had no larger rooms available. Walking the dog during my stay, it appeared to me, that this wasn't entirely true, and that there likely were rooms ready at 1:30 when we got there. I think she may have assumed that I was looking for complimentary upgrade, rather than realizing that I was simply asking if there was a larger room available at anytime during our stay ( at any price), not necessarily at 1:30 when we were trying to check in. Honestly, she just didn't seem that sincere, and gave me the feeling that she might feel underpaid. Breakfast is standard cold continental fare, though served in a clean dining room. Newspapers were hard to come by, and seemed to be relinquished by the front desk as a definite favor. No sign of waffles nor anything warm other than coffee at breakfast. We'll likely try this place again, and are fairly optimistic that we may have better luck next time. We value hospitality very much, and just a little more of it would likely have gone a long way towards our overall impression. If Trip Advisor had a rating between Average and Very Good ( i.e.- Good) we'd have preferred to chose that in most of our ratings overall, instead of Average. This place is better than Average, but short of Very Good.

BYU, ESPN agree to 8-year broadcast partnership
Stuart Johnson, Deseret News
PROVO — The day after making the historic announcement that it's dropping conference affiliation in football, BYU officials outlined how the Cougars plan to navigate these largely unchartered waters of independence starting in 2011.
Certainly, BYU isn't doing this alone.
Athletic director Tom Holmoe announced during a Wednesday afternoon news conference at LaVell Edwards Stadium that the Cougars have signed an eight-year contract with ESPN to broadcast home games on the network behemoth's family of networks.
"This is the pathway we chose to go for," Holmoe said.
The decision to go independent "comes down to two pillars — access and exposure," Holmoe explained. "Every home football game and men's basketball game will now be carried nationally."
Said President Cecil O. Samuelson: "A driving force in our deliberations has been to secure broad, nationwide access to our games for our large, national following."
Holmoe also announced BYU and Notre Dame have agreed to a six-game football contract that will run through 2020.
"Our vision is to play football games across the country against many of the storied football programs in their legendary stadiums and to those same highly regarded program return to Provo to play in LaVell Edwards Stadium," Holmoe said.
"This is just a tremendous day for ESPN to be back in business with BYU in a formal basis," Dave Brown, ESPN vice president of programming and acquisition, told reporters. "It's a tremendous addition to our college football schedule."
BYU previously announced a three-game series with Texas, beginning next fall, a deal that ESPN helped negotiate.
"One of the challenges of being an independent in football is that of scheduling games," Holmoe said. "With the success of our football and basketball programs, it hasn't been easy to get teams to come to LaVell Edwards Stadium and the Marriott Center. There's another area where our new partnership with ESPN will benefit us. The top matchmaker in college sports."
While ESPN works to line up attractive matchups for BYU, the Cougars will face a steady diet of Western Athletic Conference opponents in 2011 and 2012. The WAC agreed Wednesday to play nine games in those seasons against BYU. In 2011, WAC schools will host two games against BYU and three of the league's teams will visit Provo. In 2012, BYU will play two games in WAC venues and host a pair of WAC foes. Those opponents are Hawaii, Idaho, Louisiana Tech, New Mexico State and San Jose State. BYU is already scheduled to play WAC member Utah State in 2011-12.
Conspicuously absent are Fresno State and Nevada, two schools that decided to bolt from the WAC to the MWC two weeks ago, foiling BYU's original plans to form a partnership with the WAC for its sports other than football. Instead, BYU is partnering with the West Coast Conference, which will be the new home for 12 Cougar sports teams.
Holmoe said there will be "a transition period of a couple of years before we achieve the full vision of what football independence can become. To that point we are grateful to a group of schools in the WAC who have agreed to play us in 2011 and 2012 to help us get started in this endeavor."
Every year, a minimum of three BYU football games will be carried on ESPN, ESPN2 or ABC. Other games could be broadcast on ESPNU. At least one game each season will be televised live on BYUTV.
In addition to the live broadcasts of games, BYU Broadcasting will also have the ability to do same-day rebroadcasts of every home game and every game to which ESPN has the rights.

Great dryer.
By Samsungman
from Irvine, CA, United States
Comments about LG 7.3 Cu. Ft. Electric Dryer - White:
My wife never thought about using a dryer, but I told her it is an American custom to own a dryer. When we got it, we were super-happy. I thought my wife will criticize me for having a dryer since in Korea, nobody uses a dryer in Korea. When we got the dryer, she could not believe how much it made her life so much easier. She put a big smile on her face getting the dryer.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

High Tech
By cpedro12
from Fresno, CA, United States
I love how quiet this unit is. I also love the flow technology. This unit detected poor flow through my vent and caused me to have my vent cleaned. I am glad I did as that could have been a fire waiting to happen. Very efficient dryer.

Quick, large drum
By ashleyamos07
from Castle Rock, WA, United States
Love how large this drum is. I can dry 2 loads comparable to my last dryer. Use the quick time functions. Like the signal at completion instead of a typical buzzer.
Really Great Dryer
By Bets Doing Laundry
from Blythewood, SC, United States
I bought this dryer about 5 months ago & do several load of laundry every week. It works quickly and well, and it has a great variety of cycles to choose from. The front/forward controls are easy to reach. Would definitely buy again.

Rising deaths among white middle-aged Americans could exceed AIDS toll
Rising deaths among white middle-aged Americans could exceed AIDS toll in US A sharp rise in death rates among white middle-aged Americans has claimed nearly as many lives in the past 15 years as the spread of Aids in the US, researchers have said. The alarming trend, overlooked until now, has hit less-educated 45- to 54-year-olds the hardest, with no other groups in the US as affected and no similar declines seen in other rich countries.

In each case in this story, the families agreed to let Sheeler and Heisler chronicle their loss and grief. They wanted people to know their sons, the men and women who brought them home, and the bond of traditions more than 200 years old that unite them.

Troy Davis execution imminent
In 1991, Troy Davis was convicted and sentenced to death for the 1989 murder of policeman Mark MacPhail in a Savannah, Georgia parking lot. Since then, seven of the nine prosecution eyewitnesses have recanted all or part of their testimony, with some citing pressure from the police to make false statements. An exception is Sylvester "Redd" Coles, who made the initial report of Davis's guilt, and is regarded by the defense as the chief suspect. New witnesses have sworn affidavits that Coles confessed the crime to them. An array of figures have called for a stay of execution, including death-penalty supporters Senator Bob Barr and former FBI director William S. Sessions. Today, the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles denied clemency; barring action from the District Attorney, Davis is set to be executed by lethal injection tomorrow at 7pm. [Previously]

Arraignment is scheduled for Monday for Theo Fleming in the

I have this sequence: $X_n=(-1)^nX+\frac{1}{n}$ where $X$ is $U(-1,1)$ random variable. Does this converge in probability?
I have $P(\left|(-1)^nX+\frac{1}{n}-X\right|>\epsilon=0\ \forall$ even $n$, as I can choose a large $N$ corresponding to any $\epsilon$ such that $P(1>N\epsilon)=0$.
But for odd $n$, I have the condition that $P(\left|-2X+\frac{1}{n}\right|>\epsilon)$ should go to zero. As $n\to \infty$, this is the probability that $P(2X>\epsilon)$ which is nerly 0.5 for $\epsilon\to 0$.
So I conclude this sequence does not converge in probability to a uniform random variable. Is my argument correct? Could someone please confirm this?

I was pretty disappointed with my friends name choices. Andrew, Michael, Chelsea, Alexis, and Olivia....all pretty unoriginal and super common. I was disappointed with the name my cousin chose as well. She chose Kaidan, although I didn't expect much creativity or originality from her since her first boy is named Karson. She thought Kaidan was the most unique name around, until she enrolled him in daycare. He's got 10 other kids in his group, 2 Aidens, 1 Hayden (girl), 2 Peytons (boy and girl), and another Kaiden.

My cousins on my dad's side were not a disappointment at first. One had a Tristan and the other a Tobias nn Toby. Tristan now has a brother named Riley which was disappointing because Riley seems so trendy next to Tristan, and Toby a sister named Shelby which wasn't so bad.
My mom's side of the family follows: Peyton (g) and Mason, Skeeter, Jordan, Andrew and Matthew. The best sibset being Brody and Sean. And my currently expecting cousin has chosen Emma.

I've learned not to get to excited about baby names in my family. I've got somewhere around 20 nieces and nephews and gads of young cousins (Who's counting? Ain't nobody got time for that!), and all but two are overused or misspelled and trendy.

|Red Hot Chili Peppers singles chronology
"Suck My Kiss" is a song by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. It was released as the third single from their fifth studio album, Blood Sugar Sex Magik. The "Suck My Kiss" single was released in 1992 as an airplay single in the US and as a physical single in Australia. A music video was made for the song using footage from the Funky Monks documentary directed by Gavin Bowden. It also featured shots in shades of red of the American army returning from the Gulf War, revealed by Anthony Kiedis on the audio commentary in the band Greatest Videos compilation. The song was included on the band's Greatest Hits compilation.
"Suck My Kiss" has been performed over 315 times making it one of the band's most performed and popular live songs. It was heavily played from 1991 to 2003 however on the band's Stadium Arcadium Tour it made just four appearances before making its return in steady rotation during the band's I'm with You Tour.
In media and popular culture[edit]
The song is featured in the video game Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock and is featured as a downloadable track in Rock Band and Rock Band 2 along with the rest of the Blood Sugar Sex Magik album.
A Rolling Stone readers' poll stated that this song is the number five rated Red Hot Chili Peppers song of all time.[3]
The song was covered by Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine on his 2000 album, Lounge Against the Machine. The song is also used in an episode of Beavis and Butt-head and Hindsight. A remixed instrumental based on the song is often used as royalty free production music.
It's featured in the NBA 2K15 "Yakkem Trailer" and is also featured in the game's official soundtrack.
One line was used in the Japanese TV show Tamori Club, in a segment called "Soramimi Hour" which is when songs from a language other than Japanese is interpreted into Japanese, according to phonetics. This can cause rather wild results as the mishearing for this song was 白便 黒便 和田勉 (Shiro ben, kuro ben, Wada Ben, translated: "White excrement, black excrement, Ben Wada") based on the song's first verse, "Should have been, could have been, would have been...".

Smash His Camera
- Studio: Home Box Office (HBO)

Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
So what happens when people forget about all those people he stalked and snapped? Will his collection still be seen as an invaluable store of late 20th-century art, or the work of a celeb-obsessed hoarder?
Fittingly, there is something both thrilling and deeply unpleasant about looking at Galella's body of work -- there is casual genius in some of the captured moments, a combination of access, timing, and luck, with the subject almost always carrying most of the image's weight.
This entertaining docu by "When We Were Kings'?" Leon Gast is more eccentric personality portrait than the in-depth scrutiny of celebrity-culture madness afforded by fellow Sundance preem "Teenage Paparazzo."
Filmmaker Leon Gast ("When We Were Kings") paints an entertaining portrait of the still-working 79-year-old photographer.
Gast's documentary portrait has a freewheeling charm that perfectly matches its subject.
In Smash His Camera Mr. Galella emerges as a kindred soul for the curious documentarian and as a large, complicated personality in his own right, not entirely likable but admirable for his persistence and the quickness of his index finger.
There's no denying that paparazzo Ron Galella is a New York character. What's at issue in Leon Gast's entertaining documentary is whether he's an artist or a creep.
Leon Gast's profile of the photographer is not devoid of entertainment value or unhelpful in understanding the history of photojournalism, however, the movie is as ephemeral as one of Galella's snapshots of a coked out, B-list celeb exiting Studio 54 circa 1975.
Galella's real crime goes conspicuously unmentioned: feeding the cult of celebrity while stoking a public appetite for empty gossip as news.

Thanks to Jim Powers' perverted comedic genius — and a few notable cuties — this series is playing at the top of its game.
Sasha Knox makes a big impression with her schoolgirl charm and hot little bod as she explains to her best friend's dad, proctologist Dr. Alec Knight, that her butt hurts because her boyfriend wanted to try something new. "Is there anything you can do to help?" she asks during an impromptu exam. "Why yes," he replies just before burying his face in her ass. Elsewhere, step-mom Chelsea Zinn and daughter Tiger give teacher Herschel Savage plenty of good reason to reverse his disciplinary action.

Got these for my 4 y/o grandson who is still in need of the tummy room! while they are button/zipper they are very roomy in the waist and thighs and have the extender tabs at the waistline with the fit like elastic. the material is perfect and very soft. not much shrinkage at all. getting a 2nd pair today!
These are quite stylish and so worth the money. I was pleased with this order. They look like they will wear well.
I sent this gift to ft. myers fl. for my grandson. My son it came to his house before the del. date & everything was great. My son also said it was just what he needed. My grandson needs elastic in the back of his jeans because he has no butt. My son said they were perfect.
I purchased these cargo pants for my grandson. I love the fit and the back elastic allows for expansion around the stomach when the length is just right. Wish the elastic back was available in larger sizes as well. Thumbs up for this product!

The Servin' Surprises Cook 'n Serve Kitchen & Table is a two-in-one toy that brings cooking roleplay to life. It can be used as a play kitchen or an activity table. As a play kitchen, place any Servin' Surprises food item on the serving tray, then press the buttons. The toy recognizes the food pieces and responds with related sound effects and songs. The table features a built-in stovetop with burner and grill that make noises when you turn the knobs. There is also an open-and-close light-up oven that makes sound effects when kids press a button. The play food pieces include a four-slice pizza with customizable toppings and four cookies. The toy also comes with a pizza cutter and two place settings, each with a pretend fork, spoon, cup, and plate. When kids are done playing in the pretend kitchen, parents can slide off the oven and flip over the stovetop to convert the kitchen into an activity table for arts and crafts, snack time, or any other activity. The table is also adjustable so that it can grow as kids grow. There is a storage area in the center of the table that holds all of the kitchen accessories.
Kids see mom and dad cooking in the kitchen and want to play out that grown-up experience. The Servin' Surprises Cook 'n Serve Kitchen & Table offers kids their own kid-sized kitchen with lots of interactivity. It will engage preschoolers in lots of imaginative play. Parents will like the built-in storage area, which makes clean-up easier, and the table's dual functionality.

NYC Marathon Organizer Backpedals on No-Bag Policy
A victory for runners who enjoy clean clothing.
The New York City Marathon's organizer has decided to reverse a policy that would have eliminated a service bringing runners' bags with clean clothing from the race's Staten Island start to the finish line at Central Park, the Times reports. It's great news for the sweaty participants who voiced their displeasure on a 1,500-signee petition to New York Road Runners (NYRR), which had announced the no-bag plan to ease massive congestion at the finish area. NYRR also announced a wrinkle in its new plan for the November 4 race, adding an "early-exit" option (not to the race itself!) for those who decline bag transport; those runners will get a poncho and a long-sleeve T-shirt at the finish line and will gain quicker access to the family reunion area in Central Park. Runners remain solely responsible for protecting their nipples from 26 miles of chafing.

Do organizational forms matter? Innovation and liberalization in the German wastewater sector
In the German wastewater sector, innovations are often regarded to be the key to better service provision. Our focus is on the question of whether less direct control by the authorities does improve the innovativeness of providers of wastewater services. On the basis of data from a survey among German service providers a structural model explaining firms' innovativeness is estimated. Estimation results suggest that firm size improves in novativeness; however, the organizational arrangement, i.e. the legal dependency on municipalities does not. We conclude that reforms directed towards increased legal autonomy have only limited effects on innovations if not accompanied by market liberalization.

We definitely messed up on Saturday, no question. I think we have the players at our disposal to win that match though, that is the difference. Kuyt is in woeful form so to give him the lone striker role wasnt exactly genius. If Agger was injured then we should have just gone Carra and Skrtel or Coates and Skrtel or even chucked Kelly in there! It was odd. Not convinced about what im guessing is a anti Carroll slur (the duck but!)? We watched Lucas for 2 years and he didnt even look a footballer let alone a Brazil regular or the opta stat daddy that he has become, that encourages me to give Carroll time. Kuyt is a duck these days, if the turks come back they can have him!

McCarthy-Built Allied Health Facility at San Diego Mesa College Awarded LEED Gold Certification
Constructed within compressed 16-month time frame, the three-story, 50,000-square-foot facility exceeds District's expectations for sustainability by qualifying for a higher level of certification than targeted
McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. (www.mccarthy.com)
Completed in August 2009, the new $23 million Allied Health Education and Training Facility is the District's sixth facility to be LEED certified and the fourth to achieve LEED Gold status. Construction was funded by the $1.555 billion Propositions S and N construction bond program, which is providing for new teaching and learning facilities, major renovations and campus infrastructure projects at Mesa, City and Miramar colleges and six continuing education campuses. Gafcon is the program manager for the Propositions S and N construction program for the San Diego Community College District.
"Working within a compressed construction schedule, McCarthy carried through the facility's sustainable design in a practical manner, and kept the project on a clear course toward LEED certification,"
Umstot said that, while a typical project of this size would normally have required at least 18 months to build, the project team collaborated with the District to complete the building within 16 months. The shorter phasing plan reduced campus disruption and realized significant cost savings for the District and San Diego taxpayers.
Situated off Mesa College Drive at the main campus entry, the Allied Health Education and Training Facility serves as a prominent landmark at San Diego Mesa College. Encompassing laboratory, classroom and faculty office space, the building accommodates the facilities needed for students to pursue degrees and certificate programs within five of the region's most in-demand healthcare fields, including dental assisting, health information technology, medical assisting, physical therapy, and radiologic technology.
The design of the Allied Health building incorporates a three-story layout to serve all the uses required by students and staff on the compact site. Stone cladding adds powerful vertical elements to the building's stairs and entry areas. A continuous ribbon window curtain wall system with integral horizontal window eyebrows helps reduce the vertical emphasis of the building, while also playing a significant role in shading the glass and thus lowering the amount of solar heat gain inside the building.
Other sustainable design aspects of the building include highly insulated walls and roof areas, linoleum flooring made from natural sources, recycled construction materials, high-efficiency energy systems, an Energy-Star roof system, abundant daylighting, and low-water use landscape. The building's power requirements are offset in part by energy generated by solar panels located on the roof of the adjacent parking structure.
The construction project also entailed realigning the existing roadway, requiring McCarthy to perform the majority of the work without disrupting the access/egress requirements of the campus. Once again, the project team worked with the District to shorten the construction schedule, thus reducing impact on campus traffic flow and providing cost savings to the District and taxpayers.
Project consultants involved in the Allied Health Education and Training Facility project included Hope Engineering for structural engineering, RBF Consulting and Latitude 33 for civil engineering, X-nth for mechanical and electrical engineering, and Wimmer Yamada and Caughey as the landscape architect. Churchill Engineering was the code consultant.

"Imperial City" Top 5 Page for this destination Meknes by iaint
Meknes Travel Guide: 108 reviews and 299 photos
...after a 7 hour train journey from Marrakesh. Comfortable enough in ONCF's 1st class, but 40 minutes late.
I was starting to get the screaming heeby jeebies after 5 hours. It was dark by then. Battery flat on the laptop, nothing to look at. Just my book to read.
It was 9pm by the time i got to the hotel - just time for dinner and a couple of beers - then heavy duty sightseeing in the morning.
...refreshed by a decent night's sleep and Ibis breakfast I set to work on the medina etc.
Well, seemed to knock that on the head by 2pm! I could have lost myself in the souks, but I'm not a shopper and they all look the same. Plus I was tired by then. Highlight was definitely the mausoleum of Moulay Ismail - stunning!
I had a great chicken tajine in a tourist trap on the main square - even had a large lump of chicken breast in it. Maybe I landed on my feet there.
...had a magical trip out to Volubilis & Moulay Idriss Zerhoun in the morning. Great fun. Way to see the surrounding country, as well as a glimpse into small toen life.
- Pros:good sights to see
- Cons:aggressive kids begging
- In a nutshell:glad I came
