The Bible is quite clear. There is only one race—the human race. Humans, however, have arbitrarily further defined "race" to distinguish between the various colors of people. Presently, we recognize three or four major "races" of humans, as the word race usually is defined: (a) Caucasoid; (b) Mongoloid; (c) Negroid; and (d) Australoid. But consider the conundrum evolutionists face in explaining why humans have mostly naked skin that comes in a variety of sandy yellows, reddish-tans, silky browns, creamy whites, and pale pinks. We are the only "primates" (their classification, not mine) that remain hairless and exhibit this rainbow of colors. Yet, these colors also cause many of us to stop and ask: "How could so many different colors have originated from Adam and Eve?" Who among us is not curious about the skin colors, hair textures, bodily structures, and facial features associated with racial background? Why do many Africans have deep black skin, while that of most Europeans is pale pink? Why do the eyes of most "white" people and "black" people look pretty much alike, but differ so much from the eyes of Orientals? Why do some races have kinky hair, while others have straight hair? Why do some races grow to over 7 feet tall (e.g., African Watusis), while others are less than 5 feet (e.g., African Pygmies)?
An article in the October 2002 issue of Scientific American claims to hold the answer to this complex puzzle. The authors believe that human skin color has continued to evolve—in an effort to get "just the right color." The claim is: "Throughout the world, human skin color has evolved to be dark enough to prevent sunlight from destroying the nutrient folate, but light enough to foster the production of vitamin D" (Jablonski and Chaplin, 2002, 287[4]:75, emp. added). The skin on chimpanzees and apes is light because it is covered and protected by the abundance of hair on their bodies. As such, evolutionists believe that the first humans had light skin. According to their theory, we were forced to give up our hair in order to cool our growing brains (maybe this explains why many humans today find themselves "folliclely challenged!"). Once rid of the body hair, evolutionists proclaim, humans then were subjected to the damaging effects of sunlight, especially UV rays. To combat this problem, evolutionists contend, humans began producing more melanin, the dark-pigmented molecule that serves the dual purpose of physically and chemically filtering out harmful UV rays. The Scientific American report also points out that the melanin may have played a role in preserving folate (p. 76)—a compound important in preventing neural tube defects such as spina bifida.
The article informs readers that "the earliest members of Homo sapiens, or modern humans, evolved in Africa between 120,000 and 100,000 years ago and had darkly pigmented skin adapted to the condition of UV radiation and heat that existed near the equator" (p. 79). This dark skin became problematic, however, when humans began to venture out of this tropical region. With less sunlight available, humans were unable to produce vitamin D in sufficient quantities, and were subject to various diseases such as rickets and osteomalacia. Thus, people who settled in regions without as much sunlight were then forced to undergo further evolution in order to produce a lighter skin color. [For those of you keeping track, here's a quick summary: We lost body hair to cool our growing brains. Our pink skin and folate levels were in danger of UV radiation, so we evolved lots of melanin and became dark skinned. But some humans traveled to areas where there wasn't as much sunlight, thus they were required to evolve lighter skin.] So, humans evolved skin dark enough to prevent sunlight from destroying the nutrient folate but light enough to foster vitamin D production. Seems like an awful lot of "evolving" to solve a puzzle that creationists solved a long time ago—with much less evolving. Equally troubling is the fact that we see all colors on the Earth today. If there were one skin color that was ideal—protecting folate, while permitting the production of vitamin D—then why do we see so many color variations today?
There are at least three factors to be considered, from a creationist point of view, in any attempt to explain the origin of what we today call "races": (a) the origin of man; (b) the known historical and/or biblical facts regarding man; and (c) the nature of the areas to which man migrated. Here are some pertinent facts bearing on each of these points.
First, the biblical record is abundantly clear regarding the fact that God created man. As a significant part of the whole creation, man was pronounced "very good" (Genesis 1:31). Thus, man did not "evolve" his skin color. Rather, God gave him the best possible combination of skin-color genes. The writer of Acts observed that God "made of one every nation of man to dwell on all the face of the earth" (17:26). This fits perfectly with both recorded history and current scientific facts—man always has been man. Adam was the first man (see 1 Corinthians 15:45). And, through Eve, all humans would descend (see Genesis 3:20). This becomes critical in determining the origin of racial characteristics.
Second, we know that historically, and biblically, the line of human descent passed through Adam and Eve and their descendants to Noah and his family. However, whatever genetic material had been dispersed into the human race prior to the global Flood was severely limited by the destruction of that Flood.
Third, after the Flood, the Tower of Babel incident occurred. Men refused to obey God and cover the Earth. So God confused their language and, as a natural result, men migrated to various parts of the globe where they could be with others who spoke their language. This migration no doubt had an important part to play in producing various racial characteristics.
In humans, skin color is caused by melanin—a dark pigment (biochrome) that also is found in hair, feathers, scales, eyes, and some internal membranes. But that pigment is controlled in its production mainly by two pairs of genes. Geneticists designate them as Aa and Bb, where the capital letters represent dominant genes, while the small letters represent recessive genes. A and B, being dominant, produce melanin very well. Being recessive, a and b produce melanin to a lesser degree.
If Adam and Eve were both AABB, they could have produced only children that were the darkest Negroid coloration possible, and they themselves likewise would have been Negroid. That (barring genetic mutations) would have produced a world composed solely of Negroid people. But, the Negroid race composes less than 10% of the world's population, so by a process of elimination, this choice can be ruled out.
If Adam and Eve had both been aabb (again, barring genetic mutations), they could have had only children who were aabb, and who were the lightest Caucasoid coloration possible. Then, the world would contain no other groupings. But it does. So, this option also can be ruled out by a process of elimination.
The real question is this: Is there a mechanism by which the racial characteristics that we see today could have originated with one human couple—in the short, few-thousand-year history of the Earth?
The answer is a resounding yes! If Adam and Eve had been "heterozygous" (AaBb; two dominant, two recessive genes), they would have been middle-brown in color. And, from them—in one generation—racial differences easily could have occurred. To illustrate this, examine the following chart (known as a Punnett square).
From these possibilities, one could obtain the following:
1—Darkest Negroid
6—Medium skin
1—Lightest Caucasoid
1—Darkest Negroid
6—Medium skin
1—Lightest Caucasoid
The Punnett square shows the racial possibilities (in the offspring) that can be expected (theoretically) from a husband and wife in one generation. Consider, then, the possibilities that would have existed among the eight individuals who were aboard the ark!
The whole process is "put into reverse," however, when people of different skin colors intermarry. Various combinations of genes (i.e., different from those originally carried by the two parents) occur, and the offspring thus begin to show a rainbow effect of skin colors, ranging from black to white. Is it likely that people of various colorations intermarried? The preponderance of so many colorations in the world is evidence aplenty that they did. Interestingly, even the evolutionists concede this point. Boyce Rensberger noted:
Race mixing has not only been a fact of human history but is, in this day of unprecedented global mobility, taking place at a more rapid rate than ever. It is not farfetched to envision the day when, generations hence, the entire "complexion" of major population centers will be different. Meanwhile, we can see such changes taking place before our eyes, for they are a part of everyday reality (1981, 89[1]:54, emp. added).
Francisco Ayala of the University of California has observed that if the process began with a couple that had only a 6.7% heterozygosity (which is the average in modern humans), the different combinations possible would be 1 X 102,017 before the couple would have one child identical to another (1978, 239[3]:63).
There can be little doubt that racial characteristics existed before the Flood, at least to some degree. But once the Flood had come and gone (drastically altering both the Earth and man's environment), and once the Tower of Babel incident had occurred, man found himself migrating to new (and different) environments.
Besides the environment, physical characteristics also play a part in what we call "racial" characteristics. For example, the yellowish color in Mongoloid races is due to the extra thickening of the keratin layer in the skin, which causes the sunlight to be reflected from the skin. The normal brown color produced by the melanin is "altered," and the end result is a yellow brown. Or, consider the Mongoloid eye as opposed to the Caucasoid eye. The Caucasoid eye has only one layer of fat; the Mongoloid eye has a double fold of fat, producing an almond-shaped eye. One benefit of this amazing, doubly insulated eye would be to provide warmth in cold snowy winters, and in protecting the eye from snow reflected UV light.
In referring to the human race, Daniel Koshland admitted: "Such dilemmas make us confront another reality. At the present time, the way in which mutation and selection (survival of the fittest) has worked over evolutionary time no longer seems to apply to Homo sapiens" (2002, 295:2216, parenthetical item in orig.). Races were produced in a very short time span, and the racial variations we see today are merely an expression of the original genetic endowment of Adam and Eve as carried through to us by Noah. No "evolutionary process" produced them.

A 73-7 win over the Idaho State Bengals sets up NU for its Big Ten opener against Wisconsin under the lights in Memorial Stadium next Saturday.
Here's my 1-2-3 observations for this week:
1. Backup quarterback Ron Kellogg got quality time running the offense, which (aside from avoiding major injuries) was as important as anything the Huskers could have accomplished.
Kellogg completed three of five passes. Although he threw an interception in the second quarter, it was mainly due to a mistake his receiver made in the pass route. It's obvious that Bo Pelini wants to redshirt Tommy Armstrong, which I think is a smart move, and Kellogg needs to be ready to play in a game situation.
2. Nebraska's kicking game is starting to come around. Ameer Abdullah's spectacular 82-yard punt return for a touchdown was the highlight, but kick coverage was improved and kicker Brett Maher is getting steadier.
3. It was the first time since 2009 that Nebraska scored on offense, defense and special teams in the same game. That reflected a well-balanced effort against a badly outmanned Idaho State team.
The Huskers had 385 yards rushing, 184 yards passing and gave up 210 yards to the Bengals.
It was an old-time blowout by Nebraska. Husker coaches had to scramble to keep track of all the players (88 in all) who saw action.

It can take a long time to make a film. Six years ago, an outfit called Unified Pictures announced that it was going to make a computer-animated film about Noah's Ark, told from the point of view of the animals. One of the Unified executives even said he expected the film to be finished within two years.
Then, four years ago, the folks at Unified said they had struck a deal with a company called Rising India, which would allow the film to be finished by 2011.
And now, here we are in 2013, and the trades are reporting once again that things are starting to move on this film. But this time, the news is not about corporate deals, but involves actual animators: specifically, we are told that the film will be overseen by John Stevenson, director of Kung Fu Panda (2008), and Cameron Hood, an animator on several DreamWorks cartoons including The Prince of Egypt (1998) and How to Train Your Dragon (2010). So that bodes well, at least.

BMW ActiveE Car Share in SF
Next time I'm in SF, I will try this just so I can drive one. I wish they had
this program for all of their cars. In fact, I wish all luxury manufacturers offered
something like this. For a couple of hundred I could test drive the car for several
hours to make sure it's what I want (especially in terms of long range comfort
which I can't do on a regular test drive).

Right there with you on both counts, I'm thinking about visiting SF just to try this out!
It's always disappointed me BMW doesn't start by making better use of service loaners. A Merc owner was just telling me about how every time he was in for service they made sure to give him something at least one level above what he brought in, and a salesman always chatted with him about it when he brought it back. OK, that's a bit annoying--and the fact that this was always during yet another unscheduled service visit for my friend put him off... BUT with the free maintenance and great warranty BMW drivers tend to be in better, more receptive moods. Yet every single loaner I ever got from my dealership was a stripped 3, the lowest of the low.
The tour/drive events BMW recently had for the new 3 were nice, but too limiting in terms of a short set route/time in car.

Well, took my first drive around SF tonight in a DriveNow ActiveE! Have to say I was impressed! I have a 135 and a 650, so this was basically just for fun. Registered last week online, took Muni down to one of the host parking garages (found using the iphone app) where they gave me my DriveNow ID with the microchip to open the cars. After that I was free to jump into any of the little 1's waiting for me and take off for a joy ride! One of the garage valet's suggested I take "Billy" which was #13 (apparently each car has a name) because it was the cleanest and nobody else had driven it yet. I jumped in and took off... First thought was "oh my god, this really does feel like a BMW!" Aside from the obvious lack of noise or gear changing, it really drives like a true BMW! Even the lighter steering gave great feedback. The throttle is obviously programmed to give a realistic feel so that it doesn't drive like a golf-cart. The extra thousand pounds were hardly noticeable as far as handling goes... BMW clearly beefed up the suspension to handle the extra weight of the electric components. It's definitely not as quick as I expected (and even worse in Eco-Pro mode), but still very zippy and totally appropriate for SF. The cabin is much quieter than I anticipated, and it made for a very peaceful drive. I brought it up to 80mph on the highway and it was totally doable. I circled the city then went over the golden gate bridge into Sausalito for dinner. In total drove about 22 miles and used a 1/4 "tank". The strangest thing about the car is that you almost NEVER use the brakes. There is such strong regenerative braking that you can coast abruptly to a full stop at a red light from 40 mph without ever touching the brakes. The car seemed to have almost all the features that my regular 1 has, so was impressed by that. I did happen to pop the trunk and found only enough room for a tiny gym bag.
Returning the car was just as simple. Picked a garage (all of them are saved in the address book of each car's nav system) and brought it back. Ending the reservation was just as easy as starting it. The little touch screen is pretty easy to use, but the whole process from start to finish of unlocking, starting the car, and using the touchscreen to end the reservation could potentially be confusing to anyone not tech-savvy. I suppose random people probably aren't trying this service anyway, so it probably doesn't matter. My friend who was with me (non-BMW driver) also pointed out that nobody will be able to figure out the iDrive in the short time they drive the car unless they're a BMW driver (he didn't) . Overall it was a good experience which I just might do again one day

The year 1942 was pivotal in the auto-making business because America was at war on two fronts and much of its manufacturing might was shifted to making military vehicles instead of convertibles and coupes. The 1942 models of Chevrolet's lines, the Master Deluxe, the Special Deluxe and the Fleetline, were a fraction of what they had been the year before. Only 258,795 of all Chevrolet models were built because of the shift to war production and scarce parts.
One of those models was the Blackout models, named thus because they lacked the chrome and polished stainless steel trim that had marked the models in the pre-war years. The grille, medallions and hubcaps, as well as all window and body trim, were painted metal instead of chrome.
Blackouts of any make are rare since they were only made during January 1942, when the Office of Production Management froze dealer inventories and halted all new car and truck sales pending a rationing program to be implemented in March. All passenger car production had ended by February. That left a single month to make cars before the ban took effect. Only 2,350 were built. The 1942 Chevrolets had a price starting at $799.
There were two designs on the basic model, the Master Deluxe and the Special Deluxe. The Special Deluxe added the Fleetline sub-series: a four-door notchback Sportmaster sedan, plus the two-door fastback Aerosedan. All 1942 Chevrolets had the same engine, a 216 cubic-inch, 90 horsepower engine and a three-speed column-shifted manual.
Some of Chevrolet's color choices reflected the mood of the time: Volunteer Green, Ensign Blue, Torpedo Gray and Martial Maroon.
During the war, Chevrolet and GMC made military trucks and ambulances, armored artillery, shells, airplane engines and amphibious landing craft.
The war ended in 1945. Civilian auto production resumed. Local ration boards authorized each new car sales at government-controlled prices. Used car prices nearly doubled. New tires were not available; recaps were rationed. Gas was rationed. The national speed limit was reduced to 35 miles per hour as a way to control gas usage to use the fuel for war reconstruction.

>The Miami Heat are in Salt Lake City tonight for their 7 p.m. game against the Jazz. Miami has lost two of its last three games on a long road trip, and has struggled at EnergySolutions Arena in recent years. While the Heat have won 12 of the last 17 games in the series dating back to February 2004, the Jazz have won two of the last three at home.
Following their morning shoot around, LeBron James, Chris Bosh and coach Erik Spoelstra discussed the Jazz and the expectations and challenges their own team faces each time out.
LeBron James On the atmosphere at ESA | The fans give them an extra boost of confidence. They get them excited they're always into the game, they know the game of basketball, so much history, as far as their organization. So they're great.
On what he likes about the Jazz | They got big bodies with Millsap and Jefferson and Favors and Kanter. And I think Gordon Hayward is a really good player as well and those guys play together. One thing about this team they're going to play together each and every night so we're going to have to be ready for it.
Chris Bosh
On pressure facing the Heat in every game | I was referring to all of our games as the playoffs. That's how it is, everybody plays well. Because of that our margin for error is minimal. We have to make sure we concentrate from the get-go. Do a good job on the boards, take care of the ball and not really have any mental lapses because against a good team like this at their crib, you'll shoot yourself in the foot if you do that too many times."
On his role | I like to go inside and out, if I have opportunities in the post, I want to play in the post. With LeBron and Dwyane playing in the post a lot of my looks come on the perimeter. I just have to make sure I'm consistent with those shots, make sure I'm aggressive, and make plays when it's time to make plays."
Whether the pressure is increased after winning title | The margin of error is very minimal for us, because teams play so well. We have to stay concentrated at all times, there's no time for letdowns, even for one minute of the game. It's stressful, but that's all a part of it. We asked for it. We earned it and we have to continue to earn it."
Coach Erik Spoelstra
On Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap | Obviously their paint game and post up game is one of the biggest things we have to contend with and those two guys are forces, they really are. They put a lot of pressure on your defense - not only to stop them, but to not foul them. And they're even more aggressive here at home.

Penalties Doom Binghamton in Game 4, Penguins Take Series 3-1
BINGHAMTON, NY – The Binghamton Senators fell 5-1 in Game 4 of its Eastern Conference Quarterfinal matchup against the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, giving the Penguins the 3-1 series win. Wilkes-Barre/Scranton jumped out to a 4-0 lead during the second period and Binghamton never was able to recover.
Chuck Kobasew opened the scoring against the B-Sens on the power play 11:38 into the opening period. The referees needed to review the film but ultimately came to the conclusion the Kobasew's wrister beat Andrew Hammond up high to give the hosts the 1-0 lead. The Penguins held the one-goal advantage heading into the game's first intermission with Peter Mannino stopping all 13 Binghamton shots faced in the opening 20 minutes of play.
Brian Dumoulin extended the Penguins lead to 2-0 just 1:19 into the 2nd period on another power-play goal before Dominik Uher notched his first goal of the playoffs to push the score to 3-0 just nine minutes into the middle frame.
Andrew Ebbett extended Wilkes-Barre/Scranton's lead to four when he managed to put the puck past Hammond with less than three minutes remaining in the period.
Binghamton came out in the third with a lot of pressure and managed to beat Mannino just seconds into a power-play opportunity making the score 4-1. However, Mannino stifled all of Binghamton's chances from there on out.
Harry Zolnierczyk added an empty-net goal with just over two minutes remaining, advancing the Penguins to the Eastern Conference Semi-finals.
Hammond stopped 19 of 23 shots faced while Mannino shined, stopping 26 of 27 to earn his third victory of the postseason. Shane Prince scored Binghamton's lone goal while Andrew Ebbett lead the Penguins with a goal and two assists. Dumoulin and Kobasew added a goal and an assist to guide Wilkes-Barre past Binghamton for the second straight year to open the Calder Cup Playoffs.

Great News!!
Can't wait to get back to Jailbroken...
Make an iTunes device backup first (just to be safe).
The trouble with OTA isn't that it does something BAD that needs to be undone,
but that it fails to do something GOOD, that you might need later.
If you're using OTA'ed 6.0.x, just update to 6.1 with iTunes. No need to redo the 6.0.x.
If you're on OTA'ed 6.1, restore to 6.1 with iTunes.
Just to be safe the new build number for the update on 6.1 for iPhone 5 is 10B143 just incase apple try's anything fishy
Download iOS 6.1 Final For iPhone, iPad and iPod touch [Direct Links] | Redmond Pie
Direct links to all the ipsw software, just click the link and it downloads straight from Apple
Would I be able to download 6.1 from absinthe website and update using it as there is still no 6.1 on my iTunes??
so I'd hesitate to recommend trying one at random, without a closer look.
But OSX Daily has a list of direct links to the Apple server:
iOS 6.1 Update Released [Direct Download Links]
(by the way, which model is yours?
Sometimes apple delays release by a few hours (????) for certain models in certain regions.)

Jay Jemail, Ph.D.
Licensed Psychologist
5829 Kennett Pike, Wilmington, Delaware 19807
Dr. Jemail's approach to depression begins with a through assessment of its history-family roots, biological predispositions, patterns, medical and endocronological needs, experience of attachment, loss, and response to stress or change. Depression has medical, psychological, social and spiritual dimensions. To address depression sometimes therapy has to explore how changes of life style impact the patient and their quality of life. There are degrees of depression and it is important to determine where this fits in the developmental life of the depressed person. Recent research suggests that approaching depression from a medical model is not enough, a multidimensional approach is best.
Susan Maroto, L.C.S.W.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
5 Christy Drive, Suite 102, Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania 19317
Many things can cause depression so Susan assesses carefully to discover contributing factors. Susan provides support and guidance to help you find your own customized treatment approach. Maybe you've never processed a legacy of hurt or painful circumstances from the past and need to understand, grieve, and let go of what happened. Maybe you need encouragement to change patterns, habits, or choices that are no longer working for you. Susan is supportive of your choices regarding pharmaceuticals, herbs, amino acids, or nutraceuticals that support neurotransmitter balance in the brain. Susan also utilizes E.M.D.R. and N.E.T. when appropriate, as these techniques can bring fast relief.

U.S. Border Official Pulls Gun On Boy Scout
A U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agent recently pulled a gun on a central Iowa Boy Scout troop that was trying to cross from Canada into Alaska, suggesting that at least one United States border is secure.
Boy Scout Troop 111 Leader Jim Fox told KCCI-TV Monday that the scary incident occurred after one Scout attempted to take a picture of a border official.
The angry photographed official lectured the Scout for his action, explaining that taking a picture of a federal agent is a federal offense.
"The agent immediately confiscated his camera, informed him he would be arrested, fined possibly $10,000 and 10 years in prison," Fox said.

Seriously though... What would happen if the Great Green Arkleseizure didn't fram up the rammastam before the hermite curve achieved maximum nurdfurdle velocity? Now THAT would be something. AmIrite?
Illinois Senator(R) Mark Kirk (no relation to Captain Kirk) said angels came to visit him while he was in the hospital recovering from a stroke. He's back at work in the Senate now. Congress has a 5% approval rating now. Maybe the angels will help improve that.

What's the wireless device name of the ALFA when you connect it to the BT VM?
now before i start. Let me say yes i have read the forum but i have never found a complete answer so this is why i am asking this question.
I am using a macbook pro, VM Fusion, with BT4 Finial, and the ALFA AWUS036H USB Wifi... My connection is not working the way i want it to.
When i disconnect the USB from the BT Fusion volume and have either bridge, or NAT for networking then i can reach the net. The connection shows up as eth0
If i connect the USB ALFA to the BT Fusion volume. The light on the USB ALFA stay on until i start up the network (service networking start). Then i loose it and can no longer reach the internet.
tried the live CD to boot. WICD shows available networks but it is not using the USB ALFA (still not lit).
I really need some experienced help on this. It would be really appreciated, Thanks!
What's the wireless device name of the ALFA when you connect it to the BT VM?
Capitalisation is important. It's the difference between "Helping your brother Jack off a horse" and "Helping your brother jack off a horse".
The Forum Rules, Forum FAQ and the BackTrack Wiki... learn them, love them, live them.
Just type in
tell us the output, you should see a device called "wlan0" or "wlan1" or something. Open WICD, go to "Preferences" and just change the "Wireless interface" to that of your ALFA AWUS036H USB Wifi click Refresh and it should work.Code:ifconfig
Back|track giving machine guns to monkeys since 2007 !
Do not read the Wiki, most your questions will not be answered there !
Do not take a look at the: Forum Rules !
I was being vague on purpose in my last post, I wanted to get an idea of how much you had read on this subject. I'm now going to suggest that you have a read through purehate's networking HowTo, and you should also have a look for the configuring networking page on the old BackTrack wiki.

Thank you gentlemen! I did get it working... some time late last night i got it to show me connections in WICD but not mine. I spent the rest of the night stuck there, and i had to get to bed the sun was coming up.
Today i was play around I found an open network and i could connect so i know i was halfway there. I still could not connect to my network. tried adding the ESSID in WICD and nothing
Tried to do it all via the CLI but got an error after enter my password (iwconfig wlan key (psword).
After starting to read this: Connecting hidden SSID - Remote Exploit Forums. <-- Is there now a way to get in or am i missing anything?
I just said ok i am just going to start broadcasting again. I am now connected.
So once again thanks!
Try using airmon-ng to make sure your device is stopped before using wicd, i.e
Now when you start wicd just keep refreshing it, more and more networks should appear.Code:airmon-ng stop (dev)

"After Matthew drove Julie home, she went straight into her parents' bedroom with the biggest smile on her face; she was falling for him! On their fourth date, they had their first kiss, and they knew this was going to last a lifetime. "
Julie and Matthew both grew up in Long Island; Julie in Oceanside and Matthew in Baldwin. Although they lived in such close proximity, somehow they never met! Until…they both graduated from college in 2010 and returned to Long Island. They had their first date at Cabo in Rockville Centre.
They decided to meet up again the following night with a few friends. For their third date, Matthew thought bowling would be a good idea; he is a pro, but he didn't know how awful Julie was at bowling! After Matthew drove Julie home, she went straight into her parents' bedroom with the biggest smile on her face; she was falling for him! On their fourth date, they had their first kiss, and they knew this was going to last a lifetime.
Matthew surprised Julie by proposing when they were travelling through Europe. They spent the entire day walking through Paris. To walk from the Louvre to the Jewish quarter, they walked over the Pont des Arts, where they asked a girl to take a photo of the two of them. She took two photos of them with the lock and then handed the camera back. Matthew asked her to just take one more. When Julie turned to him in surprise/confusion, Matthew popped the question, to which Julie responded "Of course!"

title: World's Deadliest: Kangaroo Kickboxing

allowUserEmbed: True

credit: National Geographic

transcript:
Kangaroos are vegetarians, but they can be fiercely competitive when it comes to courting females.
And when they combat each other, feet are their weapon of choice.
They're armed with extremely muscular hind legs and enormous feet, which help them to execute broad jumps with every hop.
This Bigfoot can cross the vast reaches of the Australian Outback with ease, at peak speeds of almost 45 miles an hour.
But one thing can stop this speed demon in his tracks: A potential mate.
For days during mating season, a male kangaroo, also called boomer, will follow a female.
He shadows her every move.
But there are plenty of boomers out there, and fights between them will break out often.
And that's when the weapons are unleashed.
It starts with a quick right jab...then descends into an all-out brawl.
This is not just boxing; it's more like ultimate fighting.
A favorite tactic: using the forepaws to grip the opponent and then quickly kicking with their huge clawed hind feet.
It's a move that can crush bones, disembowel the opponent...even bring death.
Fortunately, a referee breaks up this match before it goes too far.
But he can't stop the next generation of Joeys from trying some of their own shadow boxing.

text: You've probably noticed by now that the site redesign has gone live. We've changed quite a few things, and as always, we will need to iron out a few things here and there. We've changed 'Men's Clothing' (which was always sort of a 'duh' and vague forum title) to 'Classic Menswear' which we think more accurately describes the subject matter. Other than that, I will quote from the 'preview' announcement: 1) a khaki and black color scheme which is more attractive easier on the eyes; 2) Special fonts that add to the character of the forum with a Verdana body font and fewer font sizes, making hours and hours of reading and posting easier and more enjoyable 3) a more intuitive top navigation bar. Everything was done with the user experience in mind. Oh, and we even included a "classic view", configurable from your account settings, if you feel nostalgic for the "Sparta!" colors. To switch to the 'classic view': Click your name in the upper right corner, and then click "Account Details". From there, scroll down to the bottom and find the dropdown entitled "Visual Preferences". Select "Styleforum Blue", click save, and you're off to the races. We hope you enjoy the new look. (et apres cette poste, le deluge.) J.

Friday, March 25 2011 - Other Important News
Indiana prosecutor told Wisconsin governor to stage 'false flag' operation
The concept of a "false flag" operation makes it into mainstream news here. Imagine, a "Republican activist" and public employee in the Indiana 'justice' system made this suggestion...
– Ed.
March 24th, 2011
An Indiana prosecutor and Republican activist has resigned after emails show he suggested Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker stage a fake attack on himself to discredit unions protesting his budget repair bill.
The Republican governor signed a bill on March 11 that eliminates most union rights for public employees.
In an email from February 19, Indiana deputy prosecutor Carlos F. Lam told Walker the situation presented "a good opportunity for what's called a 'false flag' operation."
The Wisconsin Center for Investigative Journalism discovered the email among tens of thousands released to the public last week following a lawsuit by the Isthmus and the Associated Press.
"If you could employ an associate who pretends to be sympathetic to the unions' cause to physically attack you (or even use a firearm against you), you could discredit the unions," Lam said in his email.
"Currently, the media is painting the union protest as a democratic uprising and failing to mention the role of the DNC and umbrella union organizations in the protest," he continued. "Employing a false flag operation would assist in undercutting any support that the media may be creating in favor of the unions."
Lam resigned from his position after the Wisconsin Center for Investigative Journalism published an article about his email.
On February 22, an alternative paper in Buffalo, New York managed to trick Walker into taking a call from their editor posing as tea party tycoon David Koch.
When the editor posing as Koch suggested planting some troublemakers in the protests, Walker responded that "we thought about that," but said it was not necessary "because sooner or later the media stops finding 'em interesting."
"My only fear would be is if there was a ruckus caused is that that would scare the public into thinking maybe the governor has gotta settle to avoid all these problems," he said.
Walker had promised to lay off 1,500 state workers if the bill to curb collective bargaining rights for public employees didn't pass.
In mid-February, 14 Democratic state senators left Wisconsin to stall a vote on the bill. There are 19 Republican senators, but the Senate needs a minimum of 20 members to be present to debate and vote on any bills that spend money.
While the 14 Democratic senators remained in Illinois, Republican state senators removed all references to spending from the bill and passed the proposal to limit public employees' collective bargaining rights.
Wisconsin citizens upset with Walker's attack on public employees' collective bargaining rights have launched a boycott campaign aimed at his campaign contributors.
[Related: "On Feb. 23, the Indiana Attorney General's office fired deputy Atty. Gen. Jeff Cox after he suggested in blog posts and on Twitter that police use live ammunition on protesters who had poured into Wisconsin's Capitol." (from the Wisconsin Postcrescent.com)

Choking - unconscious adult or child over 1 yearHeimlich maneuver - unconscious adult or child over 1 year
Choking is when someone cannot breathe because food, a toy, or other object is blocking the throat or windpipe (airway).
This article discusses choking in adults or children over age 1 who have lost alertness (are unconscious).
Choking may result from a complete or partial blockage of the airway.
- A complete blockage is a medical emergency.
- A partial blockage can quickly become life threatening if the person cannot properly breathe.
Without oxygen, permanent brain damage can occur in as little as 4 - 6 minutes. Rapid first aid for choking can save a life.
Choking may be caused by:
- Eating too fast, failing to chew food well enough, or eating with poorly fitting dentures
- Drinking alcohol (even a small amount of alcohol affects awareness)
- Being unconscious and breathing in vomit
- Breathing in or swallowing small objects (young children)
- Injury to the head and face (for example, swelling, bleeding, or deformity can cause choking)
- Aftereffects of a stroke with swallowing difficulties
- Enlarging tonsils or tumors of the neck and throat
Symptoms of choking include:
- Bluish color to the lips and nails
- Inability to breathe
- Inability to talk
- Lack of alertness (unconsciousness)
Occasionally an object will enter the lung. This is called aspiration. While the person may appear to improve and breathe normally, in a few days symptoms may develop, such as:
If this happens, get medical help right away.
First Aid
1. Roll the person onto the back on a hard surface, keeping the back in a straight line while firmly supporting the head and neck. Expose the person's chest.
2. Open the person's mouth with your thumb and index finger, placing your thumb over the tongue and your index finger under the chin. If the object is visible and loose, remove it. If the person is older than age 8, sweep two fingers from one side of the throat to the other to attempt to remove the object.
3. Lift the person's chin while tilting the head back to move the tongue away from the windpipe.
4. Place your ear close to the person's mouth and watch for chest movement. For 5 seconds look, listen, and feel for breathing.
5. If the person is breathing, give first aid for unconsciousness.
6. If the person is not breathing, begin rescue breathing. Maintain the head position, close the person's nostrils by pinching them with your thumb and index finger, and cover the person's mouth tightly with your mouth. Give two slow, full breaths with a pause in between.
7. If the person's chest does not rise, reposition the head and give two more breaths.
8. Open the person's mouth with your thumb and index finger. If the object is visible and loose, remove it.
9. If the object is removed, but the person has no pulse, begin CPR with chest compressions. If no object is visible, begin CPR.
10. If the person starts having convulsions or seizures, give first aid for this problem.
After removing the object that caused the choking, keep the person still and get medical help. Anyone who is choking should have a medical examination, because complications can arise not only from the choking, but also from the first aid measures that were taken.
Do NOT try to grasp an object that is lodged in the person's throat. This may push it farther down the airway. If you can see the object in the mouth, it may be removed.
Do NOT begin the chest compressions of CPR (if heartbeat has stopped) until the airway is cleared.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Seek medical help right away if someone is found unconscious.
When the person is choking:
- Tell someone to call 911 or the local emergency number while you begin first aid/CPR.
- If you are alone, shout for help and begin first aid/CPR.
- Eat slowly and chew food completely.
- Don't drink too much alcohol before or during eating.
- Keep small objects away from young children.
- Make sure dentures fit properly.
