Georgia frat boys have again proven their perspicacity.
Possibly Rabid Racoon Becomes Dinner
ATHENS, Ga. (AP) – A fraternity member was treated for possible exposure to rabies, and he and two others could be expelled for beating, skinning and then eating a raccoon that might have had the disease, the fraternity's president said.
The men had spotted the raccoon behaving erratically outside the Phi Kappa Psi house at the University of Georgia on Dec. 12. One hit it with construction pylon and shot it with a pellet gun in the fraternity's parking lot, Athens-Clarke County Animal Control officials said. Another skinned the raccoon, and a third cooked and ate some of its meat.
Erratic behavior can be a symptom of rabies in an animal, but the raccoon could not be tested because its carcass was burned. At least one fraternity member was treated for possible exposure to rabies, which can be fatal if left untreated.
The three members involved will go before the fraternity's grievance committee and face possible sanctions from reprimands to expulsion, said Larry Bales, fraternity president.
"It was a ridiculous situation – an isolated incident," Bales said. "It was not a fraternity-sanctioned event."
And some people wonder why Ricky West is so, um, intelligence challenged.

I feel that this is a confusing, but by no means a complex subject...
Although the evidence of "global warming" has been muddled by "scientists" who have twisted the facts and even fabricated evidence that they claimed are "facts", there is much to be said about the subject that makes me think that our species' actions may very well be having a detrimental influence on our environment.
There are two trees in my yard that are ancient (I don't know the species). There were three but we had to cut one down to avoid the potential for extreme damage to our house. We couldn't be absolutely positive on the age of the tree, but we're pretty sure it was between 900-950 years old. I am a nature lover and really hated to take that tree down, but it was necessary and I lost not one second of sleep by doing so.
We are the dominant species on this planet (to the best of our knowledge) and thus we, by proven laws of nature, must kill other life forms in order to survive and progress as a species...duh. I think that it is very sad when a species becomes extinct and I do not want to see our progression as a species cause the extinction of another, but sometimes such is the course of nature and how arrogant it is of us to think that it is up to us to alter it. Long before mammals emerged on this planet, extinction of some species occured at the hands of more dominant species, so that fact alone leads me to the conclusion that our existence resulting in the extinction of another species is simply nature taking its course. Yes it is sad but obviously a very natural and necessary process to the evolution of this planet and the life it supports. This is my argument to the building of more hydroelectric dams...Let's just be as selective as is reasonable about where we put them.
There is SO much more I wish to say about this subject but I am becoming intoxicated and experience has taught me that it is best to avoid social interactions when my alcohol consumption reaches this point. I do hope that responses to this will occur in the first place and that they will prompt me to express more of my opinions when I am at least mostly sober. But what I do wish to make clear before I submit this subject is that I do consider myself an "environmentalist" who tries to take on the subject and act realistically and rationally rather than emotionally concerning it, although there is a small emotional aspect to my opinion on the environment. I do feel that all life is precious and that taking life should only be done for good reason...And good reasons for doing so are quite abundant...A reasonable balance can be struck...

State child advocate Sarah Eagan said the conditions in the jails put children there in state custody in physical and emotional harm. Now the state DCF has responded with a promise of change. We'll talk about what's in this report. Also, we'll sit down with a Yale Law professor who is on President Obama's task force examining policing, as America grapples with a series of deaths of African Americans after confrontations with police. Why Kids Have Food Likes and Dislikes By Faith Middleton • Jul 21, 2015 Melissa/flickr creative commons Listen Listening... / 49:30 It might seem like a control issue when your child starts hating certain foods and loving sugar, but new research is showing their preferences are linked to genes and body size. Country's Flagship Preschool Program, Head Start, Celebrates 50 Years By David DesRoches • Jul 20, 2015 Head Start of Norther Fairfield County Listen Listening... / 4:11 About two dozen kids bounced around the classroom, drawing on dry erase boards, tapping on iPads, and building castles made of Play-Doh.

Sometimes A Little More Minecraft May Be Quite All Right By editor • Jul 20, 2015 It's family vacation time, and I've taken the kids back to where I grew up — a small plot of land off a dirt road in Kansas. For my city kids, this is supposed to be heaven. There are freshly laid chicken eggs to gather, new kittens to play with and miles of pasture to explore. But we're not outside. I'm sitting in my childhood bedroom watching my 7-year-old son and his 11-year-old-cousin stare at a screen. The older kid is teaching the younger the secrets of one of the most popular games on Earth: Minecraft.

You Have How Many Kids? By Betsy Kaplan • Jul 8, 2015 Bill and Vicki T / Creative Commons When I was a child in the 1960's, it was not uncommon to have friends with 5 or 6 siblings. I was one of 4. But, times have changed. For all sorts of reasons - economic, work, personal preference, religion - the majority of parents are having fewer children today than was common in the previous generation. And, as family size has decreased, societal attitudes about larger families have become increasingly negative. The usual reaction goes something like this: "Why would you want to have so many kids?" Or, people might not ask at all and assume insanity or religious zealotry. Kids With OCD and Anxiety; Life-Saving Organ Transplants By Faith Middleton • Jul 7, 2015 Libert Schmidt/flickr creative commons Listen Listening... / 49:33 For some time, I've been interested in the thoughtful and caring work of psychologist Dr. Anthony Puliafico, who sees clients in Westchester, New York, especially children who experience anxiety and OCD. Which Writers Get Museums? By Julia Pistell • Jul 7, 2015 Flickr Creative Commons Listen Listening... / 49:12 Mark Twain has many literary sites; yet Henry James has none. You can visit Edith Wharton's house but not Shirley Jackson's. You can walk where Wallace Stevens walked but you can't buy a ticket to go through his front door. And can you believe there's no single museum devoted to all American writers-- yet? New England is about to get two great new writers' museums: The Dr. Seuss museum in Springfield, Massachusetts and-- if we're lucky-- the Maurice Sendak Museum in Ridgefield, Connecticut. Today we look at who gets a writer's house and why-- and what sort of experience we're looking for when we make pilgrimages to the desks of our literary heroes. After Measles Outbreaks, Parents Shift Their Thinking On Vaccines By Nancy Shute • Jul 6, 2015 Nothing like a good measles outbreak to get people thinking more kindly about vaccines.

Slowing the Scourge of Poverty, and a Talk With David McCullough By Betsy Kaplan • May 4, 2015 Bob Muller / Creative Commons Listen Listening... / 48:46 David McCullough is an iconic two-time Pulitzer Prize winning historian whose work encompasses notable people from John Adams to his latest work on the Wright Brothers.

With thread-bound JSRuntime there is little reason to keep the native stack limits in JSContext as that requires for each JSContext instance to set the limit essentially to the same value instead of doing once per runtime initialization/SetOwnThread calls.
Created attachment 593334 [details] [diff] [review]
The patch stores the stack limit parameters in JSRuntime and updates the API to reflect that.
The patch also removes the function call overhead from JS_CHECK_RECURSION that is very frequently used by the parser/scanner - now the implementation uses base structs for JSContext and JSRuntime that contains fields exposed in jsfriendapi.h. Then the code just casts the passed JSContext and JSRuntime to those structs to access the relevant fields.
Comment on attachment 593334 [details] [diff] [review]
Very nice.

in 2011 I was injured @ work and I knew I was going to need legal help. I had been injured @ a previous employer a few years before this injury so right away my present employer was pointing the finger @ my previous work related injury. it was obvious to me and my family and close friends that my new injury was disabling but my present employer was insisting that my problems were from my previous work related injury.
with my previous employer and work related injury I was told by my employer who to have for a lawyer and I was taken advantage of. I thought that being loyal to my employer would be of help to me but I found myself out of a job and with very little compensation and feeling like a criminal for trying to get help. with this work related injury I wanted to make sure that I wouldn't be taken advantage of again. I had talked to other lawyers and not felt comfortable but talking to chris was different as I felt I could trust him and thought that he was very knowledgeable and trustworthy and on my side. I knew I had a real mess and my future depended upon who I chose to represent me.my case took years to complete and was very complicated due to previous work related injury .it took 3 surgerys and many other procedures before I was disabled in 2014 but even then there were problems with social security and the amount I was receiving monthly. chris had to appeal social securitys decision and with his team and he did get my benefits corrected. i feel that chris did a great job for me with my work related injury. he took the time to explain how this process works and i am not easy to explain things to. he kept me informed and suggested a great QRC who helped me through the work comp surgerys doctor appointments and job search. thanks to Mr. Carpenter and his team my life is going forward after my work related injury.

I was injured at work in November 2014. I thought I had no avenue for relief until I contacted Attorney Carpenter. He successfully negotiated a settlement, which was far more than I thought I could receive. I'm so thankful to Attorney James Carpenter, and Avvo, for helping me receive justice.

James Christian Carpenter and I met and he listened to what I had to say about my injury. He told me what he would do to help me and we began my case. He was on top of all my information and when I had a question he would answer it or find the answer for me. He would call me or send me papers to fill out and explained everything I needed to know. He won my case 3 different times because he was prepared to take them on. Chris knows what needs to be done and gets the job done. I have been very Pleased with him and the Law Firm, they have always been very nice and caring. I have recommended James Christian Carpenter to a lot of my friends who have also been injured. Thank you Chris for all your help and will use you and your Law Firm again when needed.

Chris Carpenter was my lawyer for a work comp issue. I have never needed a lawyer before for any reason. Chris was very helpful in not only winning my case, he also taught me alot along they way. If I ever had a question about anything. I could just call or email, Chris or his Assistant Amanda. One of them would get back to me the same day. I would recommend choosing, Chris Carpenter you represent you any day. He will get the job done.
Thanks again!!!

We were very satified with James "Chris" Carpenter and his staff when we made our difficult decision to file chapter 13 bankruptcy. Chris never made us feel low or bad about the financial situation we found ourselves in. He was supporttive and understanding. Our first meeting with Chris was informational only and was very good. He laid out the facts and proceedure for filing bankruptcy. His assistant Amanda was helpful in gathering all the information needed to file. She was in contact throughout the process and kept us informed of what was needed or would happen next. Court day went really smooth. Chris prepared us well for the questions that might be asked & what information we needed to have/share. Filing bankruptcy is a difficult decision, but for us it was the right one. We finally feel like we have are our life back and can now move forward making better financial decisions, thanks to Chris and his staff!

Bighorn Sheep Went Extinct on Desert Island in Gulf of California, Study Finds
Until discovery by UC Riverside-led team, bighorn sheep were not known to have inhabited Tiburón Island – changing a conservation paradigm
By Iqbal Pittalwala on March 19, 2014
Share this article:
RIVERSIDE, Calif. — Using ancient DNA analysis and other techniques, a research team led by conservation biologists at the University of California, Riverside has determined that bighorn sheep, so named for their massive spiral horns, became extinct on Tiburón Island, a large and mostly uninhabited island just off Sonora, Mexico, in the Gulf of California, sometime in the last millennium — specifically between the 6th and 19th centuries.
The result, published March 19 in PLOS ONE, is a surprise because conventional wisdom among wildlife biologists and the indigenous Seri people who long inhabited this coastal desert region was that bighorn sheep had not occupied Tiburón Island before 1975, when sixteen female and four male bighorn sheep were deliberately introduced. This introduction — viewed until now as an introduction of an alien species into a previously unoccupied ecosystem — was aimed at fostering a large, breeding population at a safe site that could be used in restocking the mainland, where historic land use decimated native bighorn sheep populations.
"Introduction success was expected on Tiburón Island, given the suitable habitat, lack of predators, absence of domestic sheep and their diseases, and minimal human disturbance," said Benjamin Wilder, a Ph.D. graduate student in UC Riverside's Department of Botany and Plant Sciences and the lead author of the study. "Indeed, by the mid-1990s, the Tiburón herd had grown to a stable population of 500 animals, one of the most successful large mammal introductions in the world."

The research got its start when in the spring of 2012 Wilder, along with a lab mate and his Seri collaborators, made an incidental discovery of a 1500-1600-year-old, urine-cemented dung mat on the floor of a small cave in the Sierra Kunkaak, a rugged mountain range of the eastern side of Tiburón Island. Subsequently, Jim Mead, a paleontologist at East Tennessee State University and a coauthor on the study, used his extensive dung collection of both living and extinct herbivores to determine that bighorn sheep formed the dung mat.
This determination was later confirmed by conservation geneticists at Oregon State University, who used specialized techniques to extract and sequence mitochondrial DNA from the ancient sheep pellets. The ancient sequences differed substantially from other large herbivores that might have been present. Further, the DNA sequences were not identical to the modern bighorn populations on Tiburón Island, giving confidence to the researchers' claim that the sequences do not derive from modern use of the cave by introduced bighorn sheep.
The discovery raises fascinating questions: How should the reintroduction of bighorn sheep on Tiburón Island be regarded? Is it a restoration or a biological invasion? The latter question also applies to most cases of rewilding and de-extinction efforts. Julio Betancourt, a USGS paleoecologist and co-author on the study, thinks that, in the future, "molecular caving, the application of molecular genetics to cave sediments, will become more than an afterthought to answer such questions in aridland paleoecology and conservation."
Wilder agrees. "With extended biological baselines, such as the knowledge that the Tiburón bighorn sheep went extinct before, it is possible to refine conservation targets," he said. "Given the cultural and conservation significance of the Tiburón bighorn, actions can be taken to avoid their past fate."
Wilder, Betancourt, and Mead were joined in the study by Clinton W. Epps and Rachel S. Crowhurst at Oregon State University; and Exequiel Ezcurra at UCR. Wilder works in Ezcurra's lab.
Funding for the study was provided by a UC MEXUS Dissertation Grant and a NSF Graduate Research Fellowship to Wilder.

Familial thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissection (TAAD) are linked to mutations in smooth muscle myosin heavy chain, actin and myosin light chain kinase (MLCK. We will test the overarching hypothesis that disease-causing mutations reduce smooth muscle contractile function.
Aim 1 : Test the hypothesis that MYH11 mutations that cause TAAD impair contractile output of smooth muscle cells. We will analyze aortic smooth muscle tissues from genetically modified mice for age-dependent adaptive changes in (1) expression of proteins in distinct adhiesion and contractile signaling modules, (2) [Ca2+]i and vasomotor performance in tissue rings in response to agonists, and (3) phosphorylation that activates the contractile myosin (RLC) or focal adhesion (paxillin) signaling modules.
Aim 2 : Test the hypothesis that heterozygous loss of MLCK activity impairs contractile output because of attenuated RLC phosphorylation in smooth muscle cells and leads to development of TAAD in the ascending aorta.
Aim 3 : Test the hypothesis that ACTA2 mutations that cause TAAD impair contractile output of smooth muscles. We will analyze the adhesion and contractile signaling modules as described in Aim 1 to determine if specific actin mutations promote selective dysfunction in one module or both.
Aim 4 : Test the hypothesis that ACTA2 mutations perturb myofibroblast contractions. MRTF-A will be used to induce myofibroblast phenotype expressing high amounts of smooth muscle a-actin in human dermal fibroblasts from patients harboring mutations in ACTA2. These studies will provide insights into the cellular basis of contractile performance defects associated with ACTA2 and MYH11 mutations examined at a molecular level in research Projects 1 and 2, and cellular pathways associated with reorganization of focal adhesions in mutant cells (Project 4). We also will continue collaborative studies on MLCK with Project 4.The synergy of our research interactions will provide an understanding of the molecular mechanisms that influence vascular disease based on the hypothesis that ACTA2, MYH11 and MYLK mutations lead to TAAD and occlusive vascular diseases due to selective dysfunctions of the contractile process.
We plan to establish the quantitative importance specific proteins responsible for the contractile responses of smooth muscle cells in blood vessels in health which may be deranged with mutations associated with TAAD. Characterization of key signaling proteins will provide perspectives on clinical strategies for novel pharmacological targets to manage TAAD, and potentially on cellular adaptations that may contribute to derangement of contractile responses involving smooth muscle in other vasctjjar diseases.

Let's get a couple of things out of the way:
– I am not Brandon. My name is Andrew Johnson, and while both Brandon and I are wrestling fans and bloggers, the best way to tell us apart is that he's vegan and I only eat things that can look at me with sad eyes. Also he's really good and I get paid in superfluous wanking motions.
– I write about wrestling four times a week (usually) at The John Report, a blog about wrestling and your toiletry needs.
– I'm funny. If you don't believe me, ask my mom.
– Although Lobster Dog was not on the card he is the champion of my heart, so that has to count for something.
– This is my first time writing at With Leather, so leave me some good karma in the comment section. Brandon has some extremely large shoes to fill, and your positive feedback is the only thing that will give me the experience points I need to having more Uproxx opportunities, so hook a
destitute blogger guy up. Unless you don't like what you read. In that case just keep it to yourself.
– I really like bullet points.
Enjoy the Best and Worst of Night of Champions.
Best: Tag Teams Matter Again
At least it seems like that's where this new tag team resurgence is heading. I didn't give much credence to the rumor that Triple H was legitimately (and when I say legitimately I mean in real life, backstage) trying to make tag teams matter again, but when I saw Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne walk out with matching green attire I felt hopeful. Don't get me wrong, it's still a far cry away from The Hart Foundation vs. The British Bulldogs. Hell, it's a far cry away from the Quebecers vs. Men On A Mission, but it's a start. For me in order to be a real tag team you have to have matching tights and enter the ring together. Air Fart is halfway there, so they at least get points for trying.
Best: Evan Bourne Is A Dirty Little Cheater
The line between "good guys" and "bad guys" is usually pretty clear; good guys play fair, bad guys cheat. But, every once in a while someone will throw you a curve ball and do something that doesn't line up with these carefully established perimeters. When Evan Bourne saw that the ref's back was turned and slapped his hands together to give the impression that the tag was made, I immediately went from "this match is okay" to "this match is awesome". While that might be an exaggerated reaction, it was definitely something that made me take notice. It was great because it added depth to the story. It showed Evan Bourne wasn't afraid to get a little dirty to keep his championship, and it added legitimate evidence to all of Miz and R-Truth's ramblings that there was a conspiracy against them. Miz and Truth were actually trying to play by the rules, and that dirty little star shooter and his jumping non-Jamaican buddy were blatantly breaking them and getting away with it. If Bourne had thrown the tag team belt into Miz's hands and then flopped on the mat while holding his head I might have cried.
Worst: DQ Finishes Are The Vanilla Sky Of Wrestling
While the match itself wasn't a classic by any stretch of the imagination, it was a fun little opener for a throwaway PPV. I know that the finish of having the Miz and R-Truth attack the referee that so obviously screwed them over added to the overall story, but I couldn't help but feel a little cheated. Disqualifications are cheap and easy way to keep anyone from getting buried. You can have a match that covers all the so-called stipulations that make something a classic, but if you have a DQ finish the match always ends up feeling like a corporate-controlled dream sequence that makes you kill your girlfriend and forces you to be best friends with Jason Lee. I'm sure there are better analogies out there, but I really can't think of many things worse than having to be friends with My Name Is Earl.
Bonus Worst: A Non-Big Four PPV Is Forty-Five Dollars
Seriously. I know WWE's pay-per-views have been expensive for a long time, but I usually don't buy them because I'm what my brother calls "embarrassingly cheap". For a show that isn't one of the "big four" (Royal Rumble, Summerslam, Survivor Series, and WrestleMania) this price almost seems unreasonable. I understand that times are tough and there is inflation to factor in and other big number stuff that I really don't understand but say I do to sound smart, but forty-five bucks? Yeesh. I was originally planning on streaming this one just like I do the others, but since this was my With Leather debut I got a little overly excited and bought the show without really thinking about it. I get disgusted with myself when I spend nearly fifty bucks on anything. My wife is disgusted because I spent nearly fifty bucks on a wrestling show while I still make her buy the store brand feminine products, and apparently that's horrible.
Best: Hey, Matt Striker Still Has A Job
Whenever I see Matt Striker on TV, I always get the feeling that he's just waiting for someone to hand him a pink slip and pull the lever for the trap door he is conveniently standing on.
Hilarious Best: You Poor Spanish Bastards
They showed the Spanish announce team? Ha ha ha, that table doesn't stand a chance.
Best: Cody Rhodes vs. Ted DiBiase
I'll be honest, I'm surprised how much I liked this match. Not because Cody Rhodes isn't awesome because he is, but because Ted DiBiase has a habit of being incredibly mediocre. He's been so disappointing in his role as this generations cocky rich guy, that I think when his dad tells people his son has followed in his footsteps he shows them a picture of Alberto Del Rio. He's had three years to develop himself as anything other than default Superstar #4, and all he's accomplished is wearing a dollar store version of the million dollar belt and growing then shaving a beard. He had Maryse on his arm for a while, and even she couldn't make him stand out. Maryse. And she looks like this.
I don't know if it's a credit to Cody's ability to make something cool out of nothing or Ted finally finding the gene his father passed on that makes him interesting, but these two really have great chemistry together. Everything just seemed to flow. If Ted DiBiase wrestled like this more than once every three years I might stop putting him on my short list when future endeavored season comes around.
Worst: I Guess Buffalo Doesn't Like Wrestling
Yes the Intercontinental title match was good, but if you paid any attention to the crowd you wouldn't know it. A crowd can make or break a show, and it seemed like everyone in the audience decided to check their Facebook accounts at the same time when this match started. They were so quiet it was actually frustrating. Honestly though I couldn't tell if it was because they were bored with the match, or if they were just upset that they were in Buffalo. My brother lived in that city for a year, and the only activity he could think of for us to do was eating at restaurants. Three days of eating at different restaurants, and it was football season. And they were playing at home. That's how miserable it is to be in Buffalo. The only way to find any joy in that city is to eat it.
Still, it's extremely frustrating to watch two guys work their asses off and see a crowd of people just sitting there stroking their chins. People boo John Cena and chant "you can't wrestle" but fall deafly silent when two guys who can wrestle put on a show. You're only enforcing the idea that wrestling is secondary to crotch chops and oily fat guys dancing when you don't react to what's going on in the ring. God dammit people, this is why we can't have nice things.
Best: Christian
Anytime Christian decides to show up on TV automatically gets a best from me, even though he was just re-hashing all the stuff he's been saying for the past two weeks. Hell, he could come out and to tell us cuddly kittens are extinct and Big Bird was charged with selling child pornography and I'd still smile and cheer after he slapped his chest and pointed. His promos are always fun, because unlike a lot of other Superstars his don't seem like they were memorized from a piece of paper four minutes before he walked through the curtain. I'm not saying they aren't, it's just that they don't seem like they were written by a committee of frustrated soap opera writers. Christian came out, basically said nothing, and still got a better reaction out of the Buffalo crowd than Evan Bourne killing himself with a dive to the outside. He even got them to chant "one more match" and he's a freaking bad guy. Whoever says Christian doesn't have what WWE calls the "it" factor is a moron, unless the it factor is two hundred pounds of muscle and the ability to do a lot of body slams.
Also Best: "Sit down, Cole"
At one point during his promo Christian told everyone who thought he deserved one more title shot should stand up. They cut to a crowd shot where about one out of every twenty people were standing, and almost immediately you could hear Jerry Lawler interject with "sit down, Cole." No cut to Cole standing triumphantly in support of Christian, no response from the guy that holds more WrestleMania victories than the hall of famer sitting next to him. The image I formed in my mind legitimately made me laugh out loud, which is probably the most positive thing Michael Cole has made me do in months.
Also, Also Best: Testicle Jokes Are Back
I don't know who gave the green light for Sheamus to make a joke about his uncle Fargus's lucky green testicle, but whoever it was I would like to kiss them on the head. The last time I remember WWE talking about a man's ball sack on TV was when Vince McMahon was calling his testicles grapefruits and saying he was going to jack hammer Linda. I know I'm past the age where I should laugh at a grown man claiming his uncle is the luckiest guy in Ireland because of his gangrenous nut, but last night reminded me why it's awesome to be twelve.
Worst: The Fatal 4-Way Match
I like to imagine the WWE creative team looking at the card they came up with, and seeing that they put these four guys in a match together while the clock ticked ominously in the background. Nobody wanted to discuss it, they just threw this match together because they forgot that Ziggler and Swagger are both bad guys and thus can't have a one-on-one match together. Ziggler is great and deserves better than this, Swagger is good despite the ridiculous career he's had, John Morrison is mediocre at best but capable, and Alex Riley is about two years away from doing local tough man competitions. This match shouldn't have happened and yet it did, because they literally have no one else to put in those spots. To be fair it wasn't the worst thing ever, but it certainly wasn't something I wanted to think about again after it was over. My hope is that with Ziggler getting the cheap win by screwing Swagger out of his pin fall will lead to them finally having their blow off match at Hell In A Cell in two weeks. Of course that's just wishful thinking, as I'm sure somebody obscure like Yoshi Tatsu will get thrust into the match just to keep two guys who ride the same bus from not being best friends.
Worst: Oh, F**k You Buffalo
The fact that the crowd was dead for the whole Rhodes/Dibease match but acted like someone in the crowd was handing out free iPhones when they thought Alex Riley was going to win the United States Championship is the worst thing ever.
Worst: Vickie Guerrero's Close-Up In HD
Just… don't do that again.
Best: "I'm Gonna Whoop Your Ass"
Mark Henry of 2011 has done everything he can to make me forget that he fathered a hand with Mae Young and was given the European title by Jeff Jarrett for being such a swell lacky. He's been with the WWE for fifteen odd years and for the first time he's actually shown a convincing mean streak that won't end with him in Undertaker's comically large casket. When this version of Mark Henry looks at Randy Orton as he's posing in the corner and mouths "I'm gonna whoop your ass" I 100% believe that he is going to whoop that ass. Randy Orton could have dressed like a gladiator and carried a broad sword in the match, and all I think it would have done is made Mark animorph into a silver back gorilla.
Worst: Figure Out Mark Henry's Weight, Cole
I know this it nitpicking, but when the ring announcer says Mark Henry weighs 428 lbs, and then the first chance he gets Michael Cole says he weighs 398 lbs, that's kind of a problem. I know WWE has selective history but he just said it. You have to give us time to forget stuff before you go changing your continuity around. Who do you think you are, DC comics?
Worst: Just Move, Randy Orton
I love Mark Henry, but his offense has the speed of Bowser in Mario 64. There is no reason why Randy Orton couldn't just move out of the way every time Mark charged, get behind him, grab his tail, and throw him into a bomb. The most amazing thing about Mark Henry's 15 year career is the fact that he's yet to have a heart attack in the middle of a match. The guy sweats gravy for God's sake, can't someone get him a brochure for Atkins?
Worst: Standing On The Apron When You're Wrestling Randy Orton Is Not Wise
Twice during this match Mark Henry went to the apron to avoid Randy Orton's specials, and twice the announce team said it was a wise move to do so. If you're wrestling Randy Orton you don't go to the apron, because he's going to drop you on your f**king skull. Just go ahead and pretend the apron is lava and you can't go there, because the only way it will end is with the top of your head on the ground and Randy Orton pounding his fists on the mat like a lunatic.
Best: Mark Henry Is World Heavyweight Champion
Despite the gripes I had about the actual match, I absolutely loved the finish. Randy Orton standing face to face with this behemoth who just won't go down, and getting flattened after a failed RKO was fantastic. This has been a landmark year for honorary championship wins. First Christian, who nobody ever thought would get a world championship, was given the belt because he's friends with Edge and I guess Vince McMahon thought they were interchangeable. Rey Mysterio was given a token WWE title win for some reason, I still think that Ziggler's title win counts, and I can't see CM Punk's most recent reign as anything other than a means to an end. I know that this title reign is probably going to have the shelf life of about two weeks because apparently WWE can't go more than a month without re-touching on the status quo (more on that later) but I'm going to try and enjoy this while I can. Maybe I'm just being negative, but I really think that when WWE sees an unstoppable murder machine their first instinct is to make him lose to a guy pretending to be a snake.
Worst: Mark Henry's Promo Was Written By Tyler Perry
When the large black man screamed "Welcome to the hall of pain" into a microphone, I couldn't help but imagine Madea rushing toward me with a frying pan.

Judith Sainte Croix's transformative music blends social issues and aesthetic expression, primitive sounds and new technologies, ancient structures and modern techniques to create a unique, evocative style.
Judith Sainte Croix was born in St. Paul, Minnesota and received her early musical training from her mother, a piano teacher, her father, a tenor soloist and Marion Hutchinson and Gerald Bales who taught her organ. At the age of sixteen she made her concert debut as soloist with the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra performing the "Poulenc Organ Concerto." See my Zazzle page for my other work.
But her real love was composition and at Indiana University School of Music she received a Masters of Music Composition in studies with composers John Eaton and Innais Xenakis and poet, Mary Ellen Solt.
Just try taking a look at this page http://www.stencilrevolution.com/snapfish-coupons/ where they keep frequent updates on Snapfish the brand and their promo codes.
Undoubtedly look for woods or poles that could end-up growing in the topics go. For the versions used-to handling touch-screen features, it will not seem spontaneous in the beginning, however as you become used to it, this method will work very well. Reading more about the move revealed a few interesting things about snapfish as a company.
There are many options but we settled on metal letters which had the best finish for our shop.

*SPOILERS BELOW. Proceed with caution.
So, I know everyone's way plugged in to "Walking Dead" right about now (me too), but is anyone out there still holding on to "American Horror Story - Asylum" with me?
Mu husband's even bailed on me, and I don't blame him, because I really have no idea why I keep watching. Hope springs eternal, I suppose.
Because, season one — set in an entirely different universe than season two; indeed, season two doesn't require really any knowledge of season one — was phenomenal. I don't scare easily and that show got waaaaay under my skin, starting with the man in the black rubber suit creeping around that hideous house/poor tortured, murderous Tate. And the twist with young Violet at the end of the series? So great, a tad heart-breaking, and perfectly executed. Well played, FX. Even the opening credits were freaky.
PS. How fabulous is Jessica Lange? Answer: completely.
Alright, so now we've got season two, set in the 1960s in a Massachusetts mental asylum called Briarcliff Manor, a former tuberculosis hospital. Sounds good right? We New Englanders love us a good ghost-set-in-asylum story; we dig Poe, winters are dark here, we get it. Color me all amped up for season two when it started this fall, featuring several actors from season one return to take on new, often very, very different roles. And if you thought Jessica Lange was intense as a smoldering Southern mama with an iron grip, you ain't seen nothing until you've seen her as Sister Jude, an administrator at Briarcliff.
Wouldn't you say that's ever so fertile ground for a rollicking, kooky, scary season two? I sure would've.
But no, season two also considers no less than: alien abductions; a mad-scientist-Nazi-doctor war criminal; zombie-ish ghouls tended by said Nazi-doctor war criminal; demonic possession complete with exorcism; Adam Levine running around minus one arm; and more Catholic dogma/guilt than you can shake a stick at. Oh yeah, and as is turns out, (SPOILER*SPOILER*SPOILER) Zachary Quinto's Dr. Thredson — someone we thought was one of the good guys — likes to skin people and make lampshades from their skin. Get it? "Thread-son"? He goes down in urban mythology as — wait for it —"Bloody Face" the serial killer.
For real.
It's too much—it's so too much I wonder if the show is parodying itself, making some sort of super-stylized homage to pulp fiction. But I don't think it's that kind of party. I wish it was.
Actually, no I don't. Is it so much to ask for a good scare/opportunity to exit reality these days? Must everything be ironic? Sheesh.
To the writers/creative types behind "American Horror Story": rein it in. You've got a great cast, and Ms. Lange will likely win herself another Emmy for her efforts on your behalf. Don't squander it with a jillion storylines that nobody cares to follow. Creep us out with the kooks in the asylum and their handlers and leave it at that. James Cromwell as Head Mad Scientist is amazing in that capacity. It's such a far cry from Farmer "That'll do pig" it's, well, scary. Chloe Sevigny as a very, very, very unfortunate inmate? Not much else needed. I'm certain that'll be better than the Three-Ring Circus of Post-Modern Frights you've scheduled every Wednesday night.
Yet, I shall hold out hope for one more episode for some grand show of cohesion. If not, I'll meet you all back for season 3, because Jessica Lange's aboard for that one too and I'd tune in just to hear her read the phone book, aliens notwithstanding.

T5 Bulb Combo's Question
I've recently been lookin at different bulb combos. I like the blue look where the corals really POP! But is whats good for looks also good for growth? Currently im using Giesemann Aquablue + x2 and Actinic + x2
Color is ok the only thing that really pops though is my rainbow bta and some nuclear greens.
Here's a pic of my tank.
These are pictures of the look i'd rather have.
As far as corals go, i have zoas/palys , lsp, Rainbow bta , plan to add an sps or two. Softies too. So can i get this color without loosing growth? Please post pics of you tanks and what bulbs you use as well as how growth has been.
No one can help :-/
I use a Green Element LED 30w (that's 10 x 3 watt bulbs) light that has 7 x 10,000k and 3 x 460 actinics. I feel it is not blue enough and am thinking of buying a T5 fixture. If I do, I will trade out the 10,000k that it comes with for at least 14,000k bulbs, and keep the 460 actinics. Since the bulbs you listed don't have a k rating associated with them, I would say try some 20,000k bulbs and see if they 'blue out' the tank like you are hoping.
I don't have any recent pics of my tank, I just switched phones and haven't swapped photos yet...
They are actinic+ 450 nm and aquablue+ 15,000K. the aquablues are white though
Try 20,000k. They are definitely more blue than 15,000k.
How many bulbs is this fixture? Can you mix the bulbs and throw a 20,000k in front to blue out the tank a little better?

Hello Everyone,
A few months ago I was quoting from Geraniums Around the World
issues from the early 1970's. People were invited to subscribe the The
Pelargonium Breeder and Hamilton Tyler was the author of the
invitations. He also wrote for GATW. In the first issue of The
Pelargonium Breeder it was stated that the IAPB (International
Association of Pelargonium Breeders) would be publishing this quarterly
Does anyone know who the original members of IAPB might have been,
if IAPB was incorporated as a non-profit organization, or anything at all?
Hope to hear from someone with any of this information.
