While I pretty much was able to drive either the height or the width of any given state in one day, Texas takes numerous days to cross. It is my intent to cross under the mega - urban area ...
A Day with the US Presidents
... flat plains where the hills can be seen on the horizon far, far away.
Today we visited 2 modest homes of George H W Bush. His first was in Odessa when he and Barbara moved back to Texas. They lived in the second home until George W. was 8 years old. It was a walk down memory lane of toys and decor that both Jim and I remembered from our childhood in the 50's. It is interesting to see family photos and to hear stories of the Bush children growing up and ...
Update from Hobbs

It will be hard to leave as we would love to be able to see this through completion. This has been a rewarding experience for us and we would recommend it to anyone who camps and does not mind working hard for free. What you get back- money can't buy. We will leave for home early ...
The denouement

Analytical Psychology and German Classical Aesthetics: Goethe, Schiller, and Jung: v. 1 Development of the Personality - The Development of the PersonBy: Paul Bishop (author)Paperback
4 - 6 days availability
DescriptionIn this volume, Paul Bishop investigates the extent to which analytical psychology draws on concepts found in German classical aesthetics. It aims to place analytical psychology in the German-speaking tradition of Goethe and Schiller, with which Jung was well acquainted. Analytical Psychology and German Classical Aesthetics argues that analytical psychology appropriates many of its central notions from German classical aesthetics, and that, when seen in its intellectual historical context, the true originality of analytical psychology lies in its reformulation of key tenets of German classicism. Although the importance for Jung of German thought in general, and of Goethe and Schiller in particular, has frequently been acknowledged, until now it has never been examined in any detailed or systematic way. Through an analysis of Jung's reception of Goethe and Schiller, Analytical Psychology and German Classical Aesthetics demonstrates the intellectual continuity within analytical psychology and the filiation of ideas from German classical aesthetics to Jungian thought. In this way it suggests that a rereading of analytical psychology in the light of German classical aesthetics offers an intellectually coherent understanding of analytical psychology. By uncovering the philosophical sources of analytical psychology, this first volume returns Jung's thought to its core intellectual tradition, in the light of which analytical psychology gains new critical impact and fresh relevance for modern thought. Written in a scholarly yet accessible style, this book will interest students and scholars alike in the areas of analytical psychology, comparative literature, and the history of ideas.

I tried to find the response I made to your earlier question but I can't find it. At any rate, it doesn't matter what is used to standardize the NaOH. What is important is how many of the H atoms of the H2CO3 formed you titrate. That depends upon what kind of indicator you use. With methyl red indicator both of the H atoms are titrated so there is no error. With phenolphthalein indicator (which is used for KHP vs NaOH) only one H of H2CO3 is titrated and there US an error. The molarity of NaOH will be too high (meaning that the concn NaOH actually is lower than you have calculated.) By the way, this has a name; it is called "carbonate error".

Taking the Plunge
The first step, of course, is deciding where to go. Since this is your first trip, you probably want to keep it as simple and inexpensive as possible. My suggestion is to start geographically. For example, since I live in Texas, I took my first cruise from the Port of Galveston, instead of flying to another state and taking a ship from there.
This cuts out a step that you have to deal with (flying) and makes a shorter, more manageable trip. Once you decide which port you want to travel out of, check out what ships are leaving from there, and what their itineraries are. You can do this on a travel site like Cruise Brothers. Just go to the site and select your port. You can enter dates if you already know when you want to travel, but for now, you just want to see what ships sail from that port and where they go.
Once you have a list of ships and destinations, it's time for the fun to begin. Start with the ships. Each cruise ship will have a specific set of amenities for the clientele they want to attract. Go to a site like Cruise Critic and search for the ship you want. For example, the last ship I traveled on was the Carnival Triumph. Enter that in the search bar on the cruise critic page and you can see detailed reviews and specs for nearly every detail on the ship. Repeat this process for every ship that looks interesting at that port.
Read up on every aspect that interests you. Factors like dining, accommodations and children's programs are some of the more sought after pieces of information.

To the editor:
I have never sent a letter to the editor before and hope that this first attempt goes over well. I am a candidate for Florida State House District 76 and have something to say. I hope for clarity, the Breeze Newspapers would put a district map with this letter.
District 76 is being represented at this time, by Mr. Ray W. Rodrigues (R), and I am finding it hard to control myself each time I see a news article saying how HB 71 and HB 157 are being introduced into the legislature for the good and the benefit of the public welfare, or for the public's right to know about the chemicals that are introduced into our water supply when "fracking." Fracking or hydro-fracturing is a method of producing oil and gas reserves from non-producing oil wells, or even new oil and gas wells. Some may not pay close attention to the political on goings of our short legislative sessions. There is much to absorb and we here in our beautiful environment of Southwest Florida may not notice, or care, because we like to take the boat out, or see that it is a beautiful day to take in a round of golf at our favorite course. But, the reality is if we do not pay attention to our government, something could go horribly wrong. We must remember that "We are the Government" and we must be vigilant in observing our representatives and what they do.
The two pieces of legislation, HB 71 and HB 157, from what I can gather are two pieces of what are called "model legislation." In the old days we called wordings that got cut and pasted "boiler plate." HB 71 has the intent of forming a registry to disclose the chemicals within the fracking fluids, but the registry would be maintained by the oil and gas proponents. This is not the way I would like to see the registry maintained.
However, the most egregious of the two House Bills is HB 157. This legislation basically carves out an exemption for the disclosure, if the company says that their particular mix of "Fracking Fluid" is a "Trade Secret" or proprietary in some way. Now I don't know about you reading this, but I think that is a mechanism of hiding the chemicals and not disclosing them. This year is the second year in a row that our representative has introduced this legislation into the Florida House. I want to be clear that I am making "no charge" here. I would like the public for itself, to look at what our representative is doing.
One last note before I sign off here...The area in Golden Gate (Collier County) where this fracking is to take place is not in Mr. Rodrigues' district. And, this area is home to our protected Florida panther, and home to the "DRGR" that is the water aquifer that Fort Myers area residents get 80 percent of its drinking water from. So, take a day off from going out to the links or a day on the water and look into what your Florida State Representative for District 76 is doing. You may just be very surprised.

These IE compatible properties seem to return incorrect values when there is no
content in a block element.
In the following testcase,the document.body contains a empty DIV element named
"div1",no styling is applied to the document.
offsetWidth,clientWidth and scrollWidth all return zero for div1,
but using getComputedStyle() for the width property gives a value.
These properties should be returning the same width values as the document.body
since the width values are "auto".
clientWidth also returns zero in IE6 for some reason.
offWidth also returns zero for the document.body.
clientWidth and scrollWidth both give a value.
These values are both greater then the computed width of the document.body,so
that does'nt seem right.
Is the computed width of document.body suppose to be less than the width of the
root element?
The testcase should work in IE as well

testcase:same as above but with content added to "div1"
Mass-reassigning bugs to firstname.lastname@example.com
*** Bug 198999 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The problem here is that the offset rect is computed by starting with an empty
rect and unioning it with every rect of the element (continuations, etc).
But in this case the element rect is 0 height, so empty. Thus we fall into the
"both rects empty case" in UnionRect().
I'm guessing the best fix here is to copy the relevant code out of UnionRect and
do the union by hand.... roc, any better ideas?
nope, that sounds correct.
Created attachment 149701 [details] [diff] [review]
Actually, I wonder if the right thing to do here is to special-case the empty
rect and if it is empty, set it to (first-in-flow.x, first-in-flow.y, 0, 0).
You mean if the result is empty once we're done with the loop?
Yeah. So if during the loop we find a non-empty rect, we use that.

Simulation of Pareto Distributed Budgets+Peak over Threshold
- Status Closed
- Budget N/A
- Total Bids 7
Project Description
I would like to use Excel to simulate a Pareto distribution of corporate budgets (Monte-Carlo simulation) and vary the degree of inequality.
You start with a list of 60 000 firms. They are ranked in size, beginning with the largest firm. The list is generated by the following rules:
The biggest firm has a size of N0=600 000 employees.
The size of each subsequent firm has the size of
N = (1/Rank * N0) (Zipf Plot)
In each size class, the average budget of each firm is calculated like this:
The average budget per employee equals the logarithm of firm-size multiplied by a factor of x0=1008 €
Within each size group, the budgets of the firms are Pareto distributed, most have a small budget, very few have a big budget. The degree of the inequality a is a function of the company size. It is smaller among the big firms and increases among smaller firms. (Small firms differ more among each other)
After the list is finished, you need to perform a "peak over threshold analysis"
You take the 500 largest budgets of the list (peak over the threshold = budget of the spender nr 1000) and compare them with the attached list.
Change the inequality a(size) and/or the value of x0 until the simulation ideally matches the 1000 budgets.
Draw a diagram of the 1000 simulated firms (budget per employee on y axis, size on x-axis) and a diagram of the firms from my list
Inform me, how you found the values for a(size) and x0 and send me the Excel sheet.
(On the Internet I found an Excel spreadsheet that calculates the probability density function of the Pareto function: [url removed, login to view] butGet free quotes for a project like this

"Game of Thrones" Season 4's premiere is only weeks away, which means the cast is currently making the rounds on late-night shows to promote the series. Emilia Clarke stopped by "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" Wednesday (March 19) and brought a new clip featuring Daenerys and two of her warriors: Daario and Grey Worm.
In the clip, Daario and Grey Worm are holding a contest to see who will have the honor of riding by Dany's side at the front of her train of Unsullied. Of course, the Khaleesi has something to say about that, especially because the duo kept her waiting. Considering Clarke teased Season 4 will be a dark season, the clip is surprisingly humorous.
Meanwhile, Lena Headey appeared on "Late Night with Seth Meyers" and brought a clip of her own, showing the less-than-happy reunion between Cersei and her brother/lover Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau). She also discusses her love of "RuPaul's Drag Race."
"Game of Thrones" Season 4 premieres April 6 on HBO.

Forestier's disease, also known as diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH), is a pathology of the vertebral bodies characterised by exuberant osteophyte formation. Symptoms range from negligible back discomfort to, less commonly, debilitating dysphagia and airway disturbances. Conservative management including analgesia, chiropractic and diet modification are common and effective treatments. However, when conservative management fails to alleviate symptoms, particularly compressive symptoms, surgical management is indicated. We report a 55-year-old man presenting with 6months' progressive dysphagia and dysphonia. He was managed successfully with an anterior cervical osteophytectomy without fusion. A literature review is included.

Pseudobulbar Palsy
A syndrome characterized by DYSARTHRIA, dysphagia, dysphonia, impairment of voluntary movements of tongue and facial muscles, and emotional lability.

Rick and Justin discuss what's hip and horrific for Halloween 2012. This year, however, we're not doing zombies. Not again. Zombies are TOTALLY dead.
Art Padilla, Hero's Last Mission
Chickenfoot hasn't been together all that long, but they saw fit to re-issue their debut self-titled LP with a handful of live tracks.
If you've been to PreSonuSphere or checked out our blog, you may well know that these tracks would have been (and were) recorded by Ace Baker via a PreSonus StudioLive 24.4.2… and… let's just say it sounds like a studio recording. It sounds like it was recorded in a studio, but it was recorded live.
Studio. Live. Get it? Oh, just listen:
Video via some magazine called Rolling Stone.
Seriously, I could just set this thing to repeat and watch it all day.
So, Mark Williams was traveling, as he is known to do. Being an international man of action is exhausting work, and someone snapped a shot of the guy as he just up and fell asleep—in a full suit—on the beach in Lisbon, Portugal. It's tough work, but someone has to do it.
Anyhow, in true Mark Williams style, not only did he not break a sweat in the hot sun in a full suit, but when he got up to walk back to his car, there was no sand on his suit. Not a grain. Lone Ranger style.
I don't know how he does it, but he better patent it ASAP. He could put the entire dry cleaning industry out of business.
Mix recently ran a fascinating piece on exterminating pests. Not nutria or bollweevil, but pesky snakes, who have continued to envenom audio production despite our release of Virtual StudioLive and QMix. We're trying our best, and appreciate Mix calling attention to the good fight!
Here's a snippet:
"I work in live sound, and I'm done with audio snakes. No, I don't mean I've switched from copper to Cat 5. I mean that I'm done, totally, forever. And my mixer? I have one, but you won't see it. It's behind the stage. And my iPad? No, I'm not playing Angry Birds, I'm mixing the band from the best seat in the house, right next to my wife and kids. I don't even think about monitors anymore, the band takes care of them on their own. And because there's no snake, stage racks or separate monitor system, everything takes less than 20 minutes to set up. Just put the mixer near the stage, connect the band and powered speakers, and go. Even crazier, an entire system for a 600-seat venue can fit in a Honda Civic. Oh, did I mention I'm doing all of this with a $1,999 mixer and some free apps? Welcome to the future of portable sound."
Hop over to Mix for the full article!
Derrick Jeror is the founder of Housetop Media in Corning, N.Y., where he specializes in system design for houses of worship.
Apple fanboy Rick Naqvi should probably be hitting up Tim Cook for a sales commission. Here, he extolls the virtues of the iPad and Mac Mini… but it doesn't end there. This isn't just another "Wireless control of the StudioLive via iPad" video. This is something else. This has bells and whistles.
First, Rick sets up his Mac Mini to auto-launch VSL on boot. So, assuming proper connections and having everything powered up, his Mac Mini will auto-connect to his StudioLive seconds within powering up.
But keep watching… it gets real interesting. Via the iPad, Rick uses VNC Mocha Lite to connect to his Mac Mini desktop: no monitor required! This configuration allows you to run and interface with both VSL Remote and also access Capture or Angry Birds during the show. Rick keeps it simple and thorough at the same time—but you might wanna make sure you know what an IP address is before viewing.
This just in from Bobby Duthu, PreSonus enthusiast, recordist, pro drummer, and all around great guy! He had posted some photos to our Facebook album of user studios of his home studio that piqued my interest… so I checked in with him and found him very open to sharing some of the methods to his madness.
Hey, Ryan!
Thanks for the kind words and also for the compliment of posting me on your site and blog. My rig is simple really. My interface consists of two FireStudio Projects daisy-chained together, resulting in 16 available mic inputs for ease of drum set miking. For software, I use Studio One Artist on a MacBook Pro.
My drum set recording techniques are also fairly simple, actually. My studio room is 30×20, very live-sounding, and features a 6-piece Sonor Designer Series drum set and Paiste 2002 cymbals.
I start by making a determination of how the drums should sound based on the particular song being tracked. I like to begin this process by attempting to achieve the desired sound acoustically, and slowly add effects if necessary. If effects are needed, I take full advantage of any number of plug-ins and/or sends included in Studio One Artist, like reverb and compression for example, but the emphasis remains on the acoustic sound of the drums.
Have a great weekend!
Bobby Duthu

Levi Strauss Tries on RFID for Size
Company rolls out 'hang tags' despite protests by privacy advocatesLevi strauss, one of the nations largest clothing manufacturers, confirmed April 28 its testing of RFID "hang tags" on clothing shipped to two retail outlets in Mexico and one in the United Statesa move that many consumer advocates point to as an outright invasion of privacy rights, given that the tags will be attached to individual items consumers wear. On May 1, mere days after Levis announcement, a working group of major companiesIBM is the charter memberand advocacy groups announced a set of radio-frequency identification best practices to protect consumer privacy as it relates to item-level tagging. The group, led by the Center for Democracy & Technology, or CDT, includes companies involved in RFID testing or software development: Microsoft, Intel, Cisco Systems, Procter & Gamble, Eli Lilly, American Library Association, the National Consumers League, aQuantive, VeriSign and Visa.
For its part, Levi is using RFID to track inventory at the test stores at retailers requests and has no plans to use RFID in its 18 Levis brand stores, according to Jeff Beckman, director of worldwide and U.S. communications for Levi Strauss, in San Francisco.

Would highly recommend to anyone.
Dr. Cartwright was great! He reassured me that my nerve testing was completely normal and required no further follow up. He also advised me that My PCP, Dr. Barham would receive the results in a timely manner, and she certainly did since I received a note from her in My Wake Health the very next day. I was most appreciative of Dr. Cartwright's reassurance during the office visit. I also appreciated his comforting bedside manner and level of knowledge.
*Dr. Cartwright is excellent in all respects. He diagnosed my _____ when no one else had been able to do so!
I've been a patient of *Dr. Cartwright since 2012. He has always shown great concern for my condition & is always available. I've recommended him MANY TIMES to others.
*Dr. Cartwright is a wonderful doctor and person!
*Dr. Cartwright is the best.

8.8 with Tri Link Truss build
1 Attachment(s)
Figure its time to get this build going while the weather is good.I broke my rear end at Tierra Del Sol jeep safari last year and decided it was time for an up grade.I found a 2001 Mercury Mountaineer at pick a part and took it home for 200$ about 4 hrs cutting and grinding and it was clean of all brackets.I ordered a Artec Truss kit that came to 360$ delivered.I have a Solid cover 65$ and adapter for the drive shaft 35$ coming also ,they should be here already but apparently there was some sort of shipping accident :facepalm:
I am running a 5.5" Rubicon Express HD Tri Link Kit,Light racing Hydraulic bump stops,3" King shocks,Rock Jock anti sway kits front and rear.I also installed a Genright roll cage PRP seats and 5 pt harnesses the front bumper tube fenders and fold down tire carrier I made.
Today I removed the Dana 35 from the jeep really wish the adapter came because I cant do the truss level since i need to make it work for me I have to build it in place.Ill post some pics of the progress when there is some.
The Artec goes on smooth man, you can just buy my axle :)
Well I bolted the wheels on the new axle so i could wheel it down to the jeep,this is a real pain alone dam things heavy imagine that.I got the adapter from ECGS and Solid diff cover which is really heavy nice and thick.I got the drive shaft put together and bolted in got the lower control arm brackets on with arms attached the truss tacked on so the tri link will land dead center on top and tacked the spring buckets on at a good angle.I had to chop the exhaust off to push the upper arms up which is ok because they ran them so close together it rattled when at idle any way.The shock mounts that come with the kit dont fit my shocks the shocks are too big so Im gonna call and see if they will swap me.Im gonna get every thing done up to the upper mount then really spend some time there.The way I set the truss up makes it easy to make a nice mount.I'll try to get pics if I get it pulled back out tomorrow.

Ok so I been pretty busy lately but I got some good stuff done.I went to Off Road Warehouse and got some shock mounts that fit my shocks limit strap mounts and some new anti rock mounts.I got all the mounts and tabs welded up.I took a crack at it then my brother in law showed up hes my certified welder at work and put me to shame.He went over the whole thing again and made it sooooo perty.I had to modify the bump pad / spring retainer because I have hydro bump stops and their bolt sticking through would not work out too well for me.I welded a grade 8 bolt inside the hole in the pad they supply and screw it in so we'll see how that goes I feel pretty good about it.I cut the brackets I wont be using off the truss which sucks because that makes 8 pieces of the kit im not using.We made the box that bolts to the top of the truss for the tri link we welded the plates on both sides tonight too.I just need to clean it all up drill a few holes and put it all back together.Im excited it looks really awesome!:dance:
How do you like my 10,000 sq ft open air garage I leveled the dirt spot out perfectly before I started lol.:D
2 Attachment(s)
primed and started painting it tonight not in any hurry I dont have any brake lines yet hopefully go to pick a part this weekend.Took some pics with my crappy phone lets see how it looks.
1 Attachment(s)
here's the top piece on ready to bolt down.
I was wondering what color you were going to paint that.
ya black with a red diff should look good with the Solid Diff cover if it looks funky I'll just shoot it all black but I think it looks cool.
The diff cover will look great in red. I also painted the calipers with the same color high temp paint as the diff cover, we will see how well it holds up.

Well I got the axle in, every thing hooked up that I had.I ran to Pick a part and grabbed some parking brake cables out of a grand cherokee.I also grabbed two right side flex lines for the calipers but I dont like the mounting options they leave me because of how short they are.I could make what I have work but I think ill look into some custom braded lines so I can mount them to the top of the truss.If any one has any experience with this please chime in.I would rather not have the hard line exposed to being smashed so I was thinking about running braded line all the way to the splitter on the truss.Is that ok or does it allow for expansion and take away from performance whats the best way to go if you know.I just need to hook up the brakes and put the exhaust back in and its done.Bummer the part store is closed today :banghead:
I put 8.8 in my YJ last winter. I used all -3 AN fittings, hard line on the housing and steel braded to caliper. I put it right on top and made brackets to clamp to. worked good for me, and if I have a problem on the trail I can just cap and plug fairly easy. I still havent hooked up my parking brake. how do GC cables hook up?
The cables go in easy its harder to get them off the Grand I used my truck key to get them off and you dont need any tools to hook them up just pop them in the hole and hook them on.
I also got the exhaust in with the help of my brother in law and no more idle rattle yay only listened to that for 5 years lol.
Haha we have the same eat my dust sticker
James the owner of RDM Off road gives them out at the expo I think is where i got mine.They say I make more dust then every one else so I put it on there lol..
yeaaa buddy we gotta go do a run. im thinking mojave road this november....
I might be able to swing that.Im putting a 8.8 and a long arm kit on a buddys cherokee that would be a good place to test it out maybe I can get him to come too.I was just in Pismo with no jeep I'd like to get up there again.

Well I got lost in some seriously good fishing for a while there but I finally made it home to finish the jeep.I got the brake lines all figured out and made the hard lines got it all bled out and went for a ride.Every thing looks and sounds good so far except under a final inspection I noticed one of my caps was cracked on one of my u joints so I swapped those baby's out after work today.Tomorrow is the true test to take it out on the Hwy.
Why are your shocks on the front of the axle?
1 Attachment(s)
I ran them that way for stability because I could tie them into the roll cage, the shocks are huge and wouldnt fit under the jeep.I had to sacrafice a seat in the back though.
What is the shocks lengths front and rear.i have 14s and 16s and was curious if 16s are too long.
You can get 12" out of the front and I have 14" on the rear the only hang up on the rear was the e brake cable and that was easy enough to fix.I limit them to 11" and 13" with straps.
Oh bummer i guess i will just throw these shocks away if they wont work .lol
Thanks for the info...nice jeep btw...
Just limit the front to 12" it really binds after 12" ,15" or 16" will work on the rear if you un bolt the e brake bracket.I made spring retainers for mine so they dont fall out.
Do u have any pics of the e brake...
Nope its ugly I never took a picture of it. :)

Shelter from profanity bombing Starting at $0/mo.
We use cutting-edge NLP (natural language processing) algorithms, as well as invented some of our own, to weed out profanity and protect your app from the myriad ways users try to slip past simple word matching.
Flamers, haters and creeps constantly invent new vocabulary to insult or gross your users out. Bomberman strives to keep ahead with regularly updated word lists and algorithms to protect your site from the latest sludge.
We Open Sourced a Ruby gem client, a Python client, and a Node client to make it easy for you to interact with Bomberman. Your language not listed? Our API is a simple REST interface you can call remotely from any platform.
Besides profanity detection, Bomberman can return your text with profanity censored (offending phrases replaced) or highlighted (offending phrases wrapped in tags). That's it! Three methods in the core API allow you to automatically block profane messages, allow cleansed copies, or flag them for further review.
Seeing something that Bomberman doesn't catch? Or Bomberman being too strict? Custom word lists allow you to add your own exceptions or special cases. These lists are managed through your admin panel or automatically via API.
Bomberman features both english and japanese APIs. We at Ikayzo code in the U.S. and Japan everyday, so Bomberman also understands the nuances and colloquialisms unique to each language.

thats kool .. nice to see what happens when you shoot right through and see every breath coming out of the hole in the side
Sat, 2006-04-15 18:45#2
Whats so KOOL?
When has a hap hazard shot such as the one presented in this video taken preference over a good clean kill? Wasnt the shooter close enough?Was thet arget moving too fast for hm?
I have hunted small and big game alike in the states and Africa and every professional hunter I know woudl be ashamed to be invoved in such a half
assed spectacle depicted in this clip..
TALK ABOUT ANIMAL BRUTALITY!!! This is exxactly what we as hunters DO NOT want to see.
And as for the asshole who writes in that this is "kool", well , someone should ban him from hunting also.!
I know my language is strong but so is my respect for the oudoors and willdlife in general. Reveling in this sort of " hunting " is despicable and demeans ever good hunter n the field.

INKOSI, Welcome to BGH.
Watch your language, we have kids and good folks reading these post.
There are other words that can be used to impart your fury at this vid.
Mon, 2006-04-17 19:17#4

INKOSI........You arent a hunter. If you were a hunter you would recognize a well placed lung shot on a tough boar. The mist in the air is proof of a well placed shot.
If you had been on a boar hunt with me, which I would never invite you on, you would have seen a heart shot at 200 yards with a 30.06, the boar get up and run 500 yds. with me in pursuit and another chest shot to put him down after he turned on me.
Two shots and two dead big hogs is good shooting. Going to Africa and paying thousands to ride around in a jeep with a guide placing shooting sticks in front of your face is not hunting. It is a fat man collecting zoo animals. There are too many old men and not enough lions and elephants...take up another elitist / arrogant quasi sport....like golf.

I posted that before I saw the clip. Two great shots and clean kills.
Hey Mr. anti guy......Go eat a ham sandwich and tell you crap to someone else.

yea i'd say anti, guess i'd better not post the dog hunting clips

Sheesh...what *is* all the fuss about?
The only complaint about the clip that I might raise has nothing to do with hunting ethics. Rather, after watching the clip a few times, I believe that I noticed a splice (right around the time the "keep watching" message comes on screen). The splice could be 5 seconds, or it could be an hour; there's no way to tell.
Were it not for the splice, I could dub this clip "world's bravest/dumbest hog," referring to the second one, but with the splice, one could jump to some rather misled conclusions.
Whatever the subject material, I consider it good practice/etiquette to make splices patently obvious to the viewer, unless there is artistic call to mislead (such as in fiction-based movies).

Good Kill shot. Shut up, INKOSI.

I think every hog I have ever taken has done the same thing those two did. Can't ever remember dropping one and them not flailing around for a bit.

I remember seeing pics of this when they dropped it earlier this winter as a super-limited edition and it looks just as funky in person as it did on the internet. We even got a few people staring at us, and one guy who asked "What the heck is that thing?" Well, that "thing" is the Rome Hammerhead. Let's see how it stacks up.
Board: Rome Hammerhead 153cm
Shape: true twin Free Pop Rocker with a funky cutout shape like an old skateboard
Bindings: Rome 390 Boss
Stats: Dave 6′ 210 lbs stance, Leo 5'9″ 180lbs stance at 23.5″ regs 15/-15 degrees
Conditions: hardpack, semi-firm groomers not a patch of ice to be found anywhere, well groomed boarder-x course, beginner park features about 30 degrees.
First impressions
Dave: dude it looks weird. that's about all I can say. Rep says it's soft like the Artifact maybe not quite that soft, and it's pretty short for me but whatever.
Leo: It has crazy tips. I feel like this is some weird innuendo. Hammerhead tips… but alas, the board is flacid so I guess that nullifies any possible innuendo.
Dave: The Hammerhead is basically a noodle. It is ridiculously soft lengthwise and also torsionally on the softer side.
Leo: Very soft board. Definitely a noodle. A very oddly shaped noodle. Torsionally, lengthwise, diagonally (alright, I made this part up), all noodly. The tips are a bit stiffer. Maybe like a dry noodle?
Dave: This is why you buy this board, or you're doing it wrong. It's super soft and presses/tweaks/butters pretty much without effort. The Hammerhead isn't very damp and so you get that good feedback/response on boxes and rails to get locked in.
Leo: I completely agree with Dave. Don't even look at this board unless all you want to do is butter the whole trail or hit features all day. One thing I noticed is that the tip shape actually does affect the way the board handles. If you lock your presses in deep and engage the tips, you will likely wash out. I'm not the only one this happened to. Dave said he almost washed out after engaging a tail block. We both saw another guy demoing this board completely wash out after doing a tail press. The way you want to press this board is with minimal lean and use the lift method more.
Dave: Rome boards usually do have pretty good pop and the Hammerhead didn't let me down here. The Free Pop camber shape has an extended flat zone outside the inserts so that gives you a good base to ollie from.
Leo: Poppy enough to be satisfying.
Dave: This board turns pretty quick and is easy to roll over edges as long as you're making short, tight turns. This board was not meant to lay trenches ripping across the corduroy so don't expect that sort of performance, still, you can ride it around all mountain and it handles about as good as (or, maybe a little better than) you'd expect from a soft park deck.
Leo: Easily thrown around into turns. Since it is a noodle, you know that this board handles horribly at any type of speed or steeper runs. Underfoot, you could literally feel everything. I felt everything I wanted to feel when hitting boxes. Did I mention that you can throw this board around?
[buybtn brand="Rome" deck="Hammerhead" ptext="Hammerhead can be yours for something like $359 so not a budget-busting freestyle deck."]
Summing it up
Dave: Honestly I would like to see this board maybe a hair stiffer, like a 5 flex instead of a 3 or 4, but a smaller rider would probably get a little more out of this board than I did. I'd recommend it way more for jibs and bonks than for jumps, but for a soft freestyle-oriented board it's pretty solid and does everything you'd expect from it. Not really a beginner's board, I'd say for intermediate to advanced park riders.
Leo: When I hear the name "Hammerhead" I think of an aggressive snowboard. When I saw the hammerhead tips, it had the aggressive look. The Rome Hammerhead is indeed aggressive, but only in the freestyle side of the spectrum. Definitely not my cup of tea, but I know a lot of parkrats will like it whether or not it is because of the aesthetics. Personally, if money isn't your issue, I'd quickly recommend the Artifact over the Hammerhead. Beginners look away. Intermediate and up freestyle shredders on a budget should consider the Hammerhead.

USA Basketball opens door to 162 stars
Nancy Mulkey is the long of it, and Rekha Berry, Amira Collins, Kaela Hilaire, Autumn Powell and Caitlin Schlesener are the short of it.
All told, there will be 162 athletes heading to Colorado Springs next month to take part in the 2014 USA Basketball Women's U17 World Championship team trials.
Mulkey, a 6-foot-9 sophomore, will not only be the tallest player at the May 22-26 trials, she'll also be one of 20 from Texas, the state with the most representatives. Berry, Collins, Hilaire, Powell and Schlesener, at 5-4, will be the shortest players. Powell will be one of 52 players from the 2015 class, Berry, Hilaire and Schlesener are three of the 77 from 2016 and Collins is one of seven from 2018. The 2017 class will be sending 24 players and the 2019 and 2020 classes will be sending one apiece. Brianna Ellis, a 12-year-old 5-6 guard from Florida, will be the youngest attendee.
"The interest we have from this age group is a testament to the state of women's basketball in our country," said Carol Callan, committee chair and USA Basketball women's national team director. "Our goal for this weekend is that each player benefits from the time she spends with us."
Of the 162 athletes, 39 were invited by USA Basketball. Of those, 12 were on the team that won the gold medal last summer at the 2013 FIBA Americas U16 Championship in Mexico.
The U17 roster will be pared down to 12 players, who will represent Team USA at the 2014 USA Women's U17 World Championship in the Czech Republic June 28-July 6.

Harrison bills focused on elderly, education
Rep. Joe Harrison
State Rep. Joe Harrison, R-Gray, has pre-filed 23 bills for the legislative session beginning Monday among which are bills to create a Department of Elderly Affairs, require the election of the state superintendent of education and dedicate all state gaming proceeds toward education.
In 2013, the Legislature created an Office of Elderly Affairs. "I want to solidify our position with that office and make sure that they are getting the funding necessary to assist 800,000 seniors in our state," Harrison said.
Harrison will bring a constitutional amendment, HB 341, to this session that would put the Office of Elderly Affairs in its own department. An associated bill, HB 246, would include provisions for the department such as officers, employees, rulemaking and funding.
Gov. Bobby Jindal has tried to merge the Office of Elderly Affairs with the Department of Health and Human Services, which Harrison called "the most poorly run, corrupt organization" in government. "We've got to put our foot down and say enough of this and make sure that our seniors are well-protected and the right to have what they've worked so hard for," Harrison said.
Over the past year since the Office of Elderly Affairs was created, Harrison said Jindal has taken away most of the employees within the office. Senior citizens represent more than 25 percent of the state, and the state is neglecting to provide basic services for senior citizens, Harrison said.
Harrison expects to get a lot of calls about HB 125 and HB 127 which would require the election of the state superintendent of education. HB 125 is a constitutional amendment while HB 127 could pass without having to be brought to a vote on the ballot.
The state superintendent of education used to be an elected position, but the state got away from that procedure because state officials did not want someone who was not qualified to fill the position. "The ironic thing is we didn't even open it for applications for the last two people that have served under this administration," Harrison said.
Louisiana Superintendent of Education John White did not have the basic education or experience required for the position, Harrison said. Therefore, the Louisiana Board of Elementary and Secondary Education exempted White from those requirements, Harrison said.
"His credentials were minimal. He couldn't even apply for an assistant principal's job at a school under the requirements that we have, but yet we make him superintendent of education for the state of Louisiana," Harrison said.
The elected position would give Louisiana voters the opportunity to look at different candidates' qualifications and listen to those candidates' plans for education in the state, he said.
Harrison is introducing two more bills that deal with gaming proceeds and education. HB 493 is a constitutional amendment that would create Bet on Louisiana's Future Fund for the deposit of gaming proceeds.
HB 714 would dedicate all proceeds from state-sponsored gaming in Louisiana to education, Harrison said. The bill includes funding for universities, technical colleges and two-year colleges, secondary education and funding to the debt service on unfunded accrued liability for the state's pension system.
State gaming proceeds are supposed to be dedicated entirely to education, but the state has taken some of that money to go toward other departments, Harrison said.
The following are the other bills Harrison has pre-filed:
—HB 118 Insurance/ Automobile: Provides relative to the penalties for failure to maintain compulsory motor vehicle liability security.
—HB 152 Government Organization: Abolishes the Department of Health and Hospitals and the Department of Children and Family Services and creates the Department of Health and Social Services.
—HB 341 Government Organization: (Constitutional Amendment) Provides relative to departments of the executive branch of state government.
—HB 358 Schools/ Transportation: Provides relative to school bus transportation for nonpublic school students in certain parishes.
—HB 359 Student/Standards: Provides for a temporary cessation of the letter grade component of the school and district accountability system.
—HB 360 Elderly: Provides for the allocation of appropriations to the office of elderly affairs for the voluntary parish councils on aging.
—HB 385 Student/Loans-Scholarship: Provides relative to Taylor Opportunity Program for Students.
—HB 412 Civil/Procedure: Provides with respect to the payment of court costs and attorney fees in certain cases.
—HB 413 Pardon/Parole: Provides with respect to parole eligibility.
—HB 440 Fishing/Shrimp: Relative to size and configuration of skimmer nets.
—HB 441 Indian Affairs: Abolishes the Governor's Office of Indian Affairs and creates and provides for the Commission on Indian Affairs as its successor.
—HB 470 Insurers: Requires insurers who are admitted to write homeowner's policies in the state to provide coverage on any residential structure which has been constructed or retrofitted to comply with the Uniform Construction Code.
—HB 641 Coroners: Relative to the office and duties of coroner.
—HB 810 Coastal Resources: Provides for freshwater diversions effects on fisheries.
—HB 836 Schools/Source: Requires the state Department of Education to develop an accountability system for nonpublic schools participating in the voucher program and requires compliance with the system by such schools.
—HB 856 Children/Custody: Provides relative to child custody.
—HB 1020 Motor Vehicle/Driver license: Authorizes removal of license plates on motor vehicles driven by persons with suspended or revoked driver's licenses.

You touched me, you hurt me,
And now you call me a liar,
You stuck me, you bit me,
Now you're caught in a wire,
Of all your lies,
It was always you that I despised.
I hate you, I hate everything you do,
You say I was just dreaming,
But I remember what you did.
I don't trust you, not with my life,
You'll be a rapist, threatening with a knife,
And then you'll be caught, because the woman fought,
Just like I did.. It wasn't all in my head,
I'm not weak, I'm not scared..
I'm just glad I had someone there who cared..
Not you, you caused me pain,
For years what you did drove me insane,
But not anymore, I will not lay on the floor..
I will not play your whore.

Finding a clear and simple definition for the term social media is hard. Most likely because no-one seems to quite know what it means. So here's what I've decided the definition for social media (roughly) entails:
Social media are relatively easily accessible, mostly highly modifiable and scalable Internet based tools, which content is created and/or modified by the users of these tools.
