Diary of the Brain-Dead Teenager
Girls write in "Diaries," Dudes write in JOURNALS!
A common piece of advice for aspiring writers is the suggestion that they keep a daily journal of their activities, travels and habits. Not only will it keep your literary chops sharpened, but keeping journal entries on a regular basis may provide an inspirational spark for other writing projects. Even if you don't have any aspirations of becoming the next great American novelist, maintaining a journal can be a fun activity that will eventually result in a treasure trove of memories that the writer can look back on and enjoy many years in the future.
...or if you're like me, you can revisit your youthful scribblings decades later and say, "WOW, did I really write this? Holy crap. I wish I could go back in time and punch my younger self." Either way, keeping a journal can prove to be an eye opening experience.
Inspired by "Algernon"
When I was fourteen years old, my 8th grade English class read the novel "Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes. In case you're not familiar with the story, "Algernon" tells the tale of a mentally-challenged adult male named Charlie Gordon, who is chosen to undergo an experimental treatment intended to increase his intelligence to "normal" levels. The entire novel is written as a series of "Charlie's" entries in a journal detailing his experience. As the story opens, his writing is childlike and filled with spelling and grammar mistakes, demonstrating his reduced mental status, but slowly his language becomes clearer and more adult-like as the experimental treatments take hold. Soon Charlie's writings take on a decidedly more "advanced" tone as his IQ increases beyond everyone's expectations, but sadly things take a cruel turn for Charlie in the last half of the story, which I will not reveal in case you'd like to read it for yourself. ("Flowers for Algernon" was also made into the Academy Award winning 1968 film Charly, starring Cliff Robertson.) Inspired by the "journal entry" format, our teacher assigned everyone in the class to keep a journal of our own for the next thirty days.
The "journal" that I wrote for that assignment is long gone, but since our teacher was reviewing the pages at the end of every week (to make sure that we were, indeed, writing an entry every day as we were supposed to), I'm sure that I kept my entries as short, sweet, and squeaky clean as possible.
When the "Algernon" unit ended, I found that I'd actually enjoyed keeping the journal, and the activity lingered in the back of my mind for months afterward. I'm not sure why, but eventually something clicked and I decided that I was going to start writing in a journal again, this time for my own amusement. In the Spring of 1985 I began dutifully recording my experiences as a 9th grader...and since I wasn't writing for a teacher or any outside readership this time, I declared that my mission would be to provide a warts-n-all record of my life, with all the teenage angst, foul language and totally uncensored opinions intact!! Sounds great, right? RIGHT!
...unfortunately, as it turns out, I had absolutely NOTHING interesting to write about!!
I kept that journal faithfully throughout the remainder of my high school days, through my college years and well into my early 20s -- though as the years went on it became harder and harder to find time to keep it up to date, and entries would often be weeks - or even months - apart. When I finally decided it was time to let it go, I had been writing journals for more than a dozen years and had filled up two dozen notebooks of varying sizes with my ramblings. These books were then boxed up and stuck in the attic, where I recently rediscovered them after more than a decade in storage.
Can you see The Real Me?
At first I was excited to re-visit these ancient records of days gone by, but it didn't take long for that excitement to be replaced by a feeling of embarrassment. I arranged the notebooks in chronological order and started re-reading them starting with the very first entry (April 12, 1985), and after skimming only a few pages I began to wonder what had possessed my fifteen year old self to start keeping these records in the first place... because I certainly wasn't doing anything worth writing about. I was a mediocre student (at best), I wasn't part of the "cool" crowd, and I wasn't involved in any extra-curricular activities or sports. Therefore, 90 percent of my early entries were some variation on this theme: "I went to school today. It sucked. After school I hung out, which was boring. I did my homework, which sucked, then I watched TV and now I'm off to bed. Gotta go back to school tomorrow. Have I mentioned that I hate school? Well, I hate school."
...this was not exactly earth shattering stuff, but I obviously took these writings SERIOUSLY, because the front and back covers of many of my early notebooks were covered with garish hand-drawn warnings informing imaginary intruders that they were MY journals and NO ONE ELSE was allowed to read them, because they were PRIVATE and TOP SECRET so everybody had better just STAY OUT of them or face CERTAIN DEATH!!!
...Needless to say, thirty years after the fact, I found it hilarious that my teenage self seriously thought anyone would even be interested in reading the drivel I was putting down on paper. Hell, I was the guy who wrote it, and even I was getting bored after only a few pages.
As of this writing I've read through about a year's worth of entries so I'm somewhere in the middle of my sophomore year of high school, circa 1986. The writing has gotten slightly better over time, thankfully, but so far the subject matter hasn't gotten much more interesting.
What I've learned from my teenage ramblings thus far:
- I had an extremely overblown sense of my own self importance at age fifteen. Rather than the quiet, socially awkward teen that I was, I saw myself as some sort of high-and-mighty bad-ass who was intellectually superior to everyone around me (even though if memory serves, my grades at that time certainly didn't back that theory up!), and apparently I decided that my lack of popularity was because I wasn't 'understood' by my classmates... or anybody else. Yeah, I know, pretty much every teenager feels that way to some degree, but the pretentiousness I was dishing out in these journals is on a whole 'nother level of ridiculous.
- My favorite descriptive word was "bullsh*t," as in "School today was bullsh*t. All of my classes were bullsh*t. I have a term paper due Friday, which is total bullsh*t."
- I really, REALLY liked to read comic books, chew tobacco, and listen to Metallica, because all three of these activities are mentioned at least once per entry. The biggest laugh I've had so far was when I stated that school should've been closed on the day that the Master of Puppets album was released so I could've gone to the Mall and gotten a first day copy. I hope I was trying to be funny when I wrote that. I also have to wonder why I never made the connection between my chewing tobacco habit and my lack of a girlfriend back then. Duh!!
- When I wasn't rambling about how much I hated school, I was keeping track of what several girls I admired from afar wore to school on a daily basis (i.e. "So-and-so wore a red mini skirt and high heels today! Damn, she is SO HOT!")... which was kind of funny at first, but it started veering into creepy, Silence of the Lambs-esque stalker territory after a while.
Oh, wait... wrong Shredder.
Meet the Shredder
It didn't take long for me to decide that it was high time for these notebooks to go, but I wanted to give them one last read before they hit the trash. I started reading a few pages at each sitting before bed each night, then tearing what I'd just read out of the notebook and ripping it into teeny tiny little pieces. I have to admit, this process has been unexpectedly therapeutic... I think it may have actually helped me get rid of some lingering emotional baggage from my past that I'd been carrying around without even realizing it! (Haha)
I thought it would be hard for me to "let go" of these journals at first, but obviously whatever importance they held for my younger self is now long gone...and they're certainly no good to anyone else. I doubt I am going to become rich and famous anytime soon, so there will be absolutely no demand for my memoirs after I'm gone. Besides, I hate the idea that my kids might find these journals in the attic years from now, read through a few passages and say, "Wow! I thought Dad was a nice guy! I had no idea he was such a screwed up, whiny, self obsessed loser when he was a kid!!" Believe me, I'm doing the literary world a favor by making sure that these writings remain "undiscovered."
My advice for prospective journal-writers is not to bother keeping one unless your life is actually interesting enough to write about. Your future self will thank you later!
I think my diaries are stashed in a box in my parent's attic, at least I hope they are. Because when I find them, I want to burn them all. I don't even think I want to read them - from what I remember having written, it wasn't always very nice! I don't know if it had to do with being a teenager, or being bullied in middle school, or any other occasion, but I think I would be appalled at some of what I had to say back then. Thanks for sharing, and voted up. :)
It is probably a good idea for most of us to find old journals/diaries and toss them out. Today's culture promotes the idea that children are to be allowed to live like adults, but it's a sad scenario. Putting youthful foolishness behind us is a great mercy. What a blessing it is when parents protect their children from themselves and walk beside them through their youth to help them grow up so they do not look back at wasted years when they are old!
Enjoyable read. I tried starting a journal a couple of times, but never kept up with it. I use to regularly write poetry in my youth as an emotional outlet. I got rid of most of my youthful poems because it was a bit embarrassing to read after the fact.
I ran into some of my old poetry (or rambling, whatever you'd like to call it) and they also had to hit the shredder. Some of it was absolutely horrible. They were from college... I am hitting my teenage short stories soon. I am moving and some of this stuff has to go. If those short stories are even slightly as mortifying as those poems were, to the shredder they go! I feel your pain!
You can learn a lot from your self and about yourself by looking back on old writings; see how much you've grown. I didn't really start journaling until I got older, but I did write a lot poetry. I've kept most of it.
I had a few diarys and got rid of them long ago. I always worried about keeping one because I had such a nosy mother I know she would have found them. Most of what I had in them was just silly stuff, but when I was mad at Mother and Daddy I had a few things to say about them. I wrote about friends and teachers, and my brothers and sisters.
Voted up
FreddysCat......I never kept a diary or journal while in High School. I'm sure I could dig around and find some REALLY old notes/letters that might have been passed around by friends. I know I have notebooks of my "writings"...tons of them. When I read them now, I edit and critique my own ancient writings while cringing. Can we say "bad?"
Moral of the story.....even if we think we were a Nerd, Doofus, whimpy kid, misfit, cool girl/dude.....it just doesn't matter, Freddys...cuz LOOK at the shining stars we are now!! (Don't you dare disagree with me!)...UP+++
Even though I write for a living, I have never, ever been able to get into the journaling habit. So kudos for even giving it a go for as long as you did!
I think I may resist journaling since I'm afraid that I'll have the inclination to dig them out as you did, reread them and think, "WTH?" I'd be too embarrassed to read my own mental mush.
Even worse is that today we have things such as Twitter and Facebook so that we can publicly journal our immature, improper mental musings for the ages. :)
Voted up and funny! Happy Weekend!
I never kept journal entries as a teen, but I did write more than a few 'rants' throughout my college career. Usually it was when I knew I should be writing fiction, but couldn't think of anything. They were seemingly about different subjects, but really they were all just me whining that I didn't have a girlfriend. Because, as soon as I met my wife, they stopped entirely.
I go back and forth about their importance. On one hand I think, like you, that these writings are completely useless to me and anyone else who stumbles upon them. On the other hand, I think they're some kind of psychological window into the way my brain works and, therefore, should be saved as a case study of my younger self. Which is a fancy way of saying I'm a hoarder.
You've inspired me to go through my old diaries and write about my teenage self. I'm serious. What a great idea for a hub, and you write so well! I enjoyed reading it.
I'm not sure I would criticize anyone for writing, even a former self. Sometimes you gotta get the lame stuff out of the way so you can get to the good stuff. It might take years.
i had wrote diary when i was a teen, burnt them when i got married
yeah, reading them one last time was a memorable mood, maybe i should take some photos of them

The Ravens have reached the official midpoint of the 2013 season in a position they haven't been in a long time.
For the first time in eight years, they're under .500 after eight contests at 3-5. In coach John Harbaugh's first five seasons, the team experienced the occasional slump or lull, even last year when it lost four of its last five regular season games before embarking on the Super Bowl run.
But this year's slide feels a bit different. Baltimore is struggling in so many areas and not dominating in any.
With eight games to go, the Ravens are now in third place in the AFC North, 2 1/2 games behind the first-place Bengals (6-3) and a half-game behind the second-place Browns (4-5).
While a week ago, the Ravens' positioning in the wild card race wasn't so bad, another loss on the ledger is making things look awfully grim.
Barring a complete collapse by the Chiefs (9-0) or Broncos (7-1), there will be only one wild card up for grabs in the AFC. Right now, the Jets sit in that spot at 5-4.
Baltimore might be just 1 1/2 games back of the Jets, and winning some games could change the team's outlook in a hurry. But the Ravens have six teams standing between them and a playoff spot.
That's right - Baltimore is tied with the Raiders for 11th in the conference with the Jets in sixth, Titans, Dolphins and Chargers tied for seventh at 4-4, and the Browns alone in 10th at 4-5.
Odds are that one member of that horde will get hot at some point, but if all those teams keep following the same up-and-down trajectory, the Ravens will have a chance.
Baltimore still has plenty of opportunity to control its own fate with two games against the Bengals and one against the Jets. However, at the moment, the Ravens' playoff chances wouldn't be classified as probable.

'Affordable Indulgence' Drove Chocolate Sales in '09
Chocolate will emerge as growth driver in 'new, delicious and exciting ways,' according to NCA report.By Bob Gatty
NEW YORK -- Despite the gloom of the recession that enveloped the nation last year, with its impact still being felt, U.S. consumers have not given up on chocolate even as they cut back on other frills and took steps to curtail spending in virtually every way possible.
"Chocolate kept selling through the recession; people kept buying chocolate and eating chocolate," said Marcia Mogelonsky, senior food and drink analyst at the market research company Mintel. "Chocolate is an affordable little indulgence for many people to enjoy, even when they have to give up other things. For many people, it's a nice tradeoff. Skip dessert and have a nice piece of chocolate when you get home."
The "affordable indulgence" factor apparently was an important driver of chocolate sales in 2009, which generally were up in convenience stores, supermarkets and specialty food stores, although in unit sales generally declined.
According to The Nielsen Co., chocolate bar dollar sales of almost $4.6 billion in the convenience channel represented a 5 percent jump over 2008, but unit sales were off by the same amount. (Convenience Store News is a subsidiary of The Nielsen Co.)
"The major factor in convenience stores has been that in-store sales have lost ground because people stopping for gas are simply not going inside the store to buy snacks or lunch," Mogelonsky pointed out. "People are trying to save money. Many people are not stopping on the way to work because they are not going to work, or if they are, they bring food from home."
But for many people, depriving themselves of that convenience store candy bar or extra cup of coffee generates a sudden urge to spend money on something little, but extra good, like a fancy chocolate when they buy groceries or are pass by a gourmet chocolate shop at the mall, she said.
In the food, drug, mass merchandising channels, including Walmart, Nielsen reported 2009 chocolate candy sales of $4.3 billion, a 3.6-percent increase, on top of a 4.7-percent jump the previous year. However, unit sales were off by 7 percent. Chocolate miniature sales of about $1.1 billion were up 8.7 percent, following a 1.2-percent boost in 2008, while unit sales dropped 3 percent. Dietetic chocolate sales of $172 million climbed 3.6 percent compared to a slight 0.4-percent increase in the prior year. Unit sales were up, but only by 0.2 percent.
Those higher sales numbers compared to lower unit numbers represent price increases taken by some major manufacturers over the year, but they may also indicate increased interest by consumers in higher-priced premium brands -- the "affordable indulgence" factor.
Last December, Mintel reported chocolate sales worldwide rose dramatically -- by 18 percent and 12 percent, respectively, in China and the Ukraine, for example. Each country has seen steady sales growth since 2005, and Mintel predicts continued growth through 2013. In Britain, the chocolate market produced 5.9 percent growth, with 3.2 percent in Belgium, a country that claims to produce some of the world's best chocolates, showing a sales increase of 3.2 percent. Overall U.S. chocolate sales increased 2.6 percent over 2008, Mintel reported.
"It's clear that despite economic trouble this year, the world's chocolate lovers didn't deviate from their favorite treat," said Mogelonsky. "Even in countries not known for chocolate consumption, sales are on the rise."
Manufacturers say many consumers are also growing more interested in organic and fair trade products, especially on the West Coast, where consumers frequently ask questions about those items as well as about the health benefits of chocolate. That trend is expected to grow in other areas of the country as well. Chocolate, particularly the dark varieties, is loaded with flavanols, which help to lower blood pressure, promote healthy blood flow and balance certain hormones in the body.
What's Next?
The National Confectioners Association's (NCA) 2009 Confectionery Industry Trend report predicts chocolate will emerge as one of the largest growth drivers for the confections industry "in new, delicious and exciting ways."
According to the report:
-- Chocolate and cocoa will pop up more frequently as a key ingredient in main courses alongside salmon, chicken and steak, according to 73 percent of experts surveyed.
-- Flavor infusions that combine chocolate and spices, salts, herbs and floral flavors will become increasingly popular as consumers embrace pairings, according to 43 percent of insiders.
-- Sweet and savory chocolate duos, like chocolate and bacon, and even chocolate and cheese combos, will be popular in stores and on menus. In fact, 78 percent of experts said chocolate and these sweet and savory duos will provide the most surprising flavor combinations.
-- Chocolate will drive the organic market, according to 70 percent of experts surveyed.
-- More than one-third of experts said consumers will become more knowledgeable about the global origin of the chocolate they enjoy.
Experts also forecast that the potential health benefits of chocolate will continue to be evidenced. Nearly half of those surveyed said consumers can expect to see more research into the potential health benefits of milk and dark chocolate, including exploration of naturally occurring cocoa compounds and positive effects on mood and blood pressure levels.
In addition, one in three industry experts said U.S. trends will have the greatest impact on the dark chocolate market globally.
The report predicted limited-edition candies will prevail. Thirty-five percent of experts said experimentation with new flavors of classic favorites will be a leading trend within limited edition candies, such as introducing dark chocolate versions of classic milk chocolate candies and experimenting with flavor fillings.
Some of these trends are evident in new products and line extensions recently introduced in the retail marketplace.
For example, Cape Code Provisions LLC converted six products to an all-natural recipe. In its Harvest Sweets brand, milk and dark chocolate covered cherries and blueberries are now all natural. In the Cape Cod Cranberry Candy brand, dried cranberries are now coated with all natural milk and dark chocolates.
Decadent tastes LLC, Ferndale, Wash., announced that its L'ESTASI DOLCE Sweet Ecstasy brand of Asian-Fusion confections and gourmet wine truffles recently received top ratings from Tastesgrader.com, an online guide for consumers. Cited by the rating service were the company's Lemongrass Ginger Truffles, Mint Ginger Truffles and the Cabernet Truffle.
Last June, Nestle launched its new Kit Kat, Aero, and Coffee Crisp bars, all of which use dark chocolate "to attract a mature, health-conscious new audience." The products contain 70 percent cocoa content, "successfully elevating Nestle's presence as a provider of quality dark chocolate," according to the company's promotional materials. Since the launch, shipment sales have increased 45 percent, with consumption sales up 14 percent compared to the previous year.

West Virginia entered Wednesday night's road game at Villanova needing to add a solid road victory to its NCAA tournament resume. After all was said and done, many were still waiting for the Mountaineers to show up.
Villanova took advantage of a sub-par WVU effort and rode a decisive edge in intensity, execution, hustle and will to a laughable 78-56 blowout win at The Pavilion in Philadelphia in a game that was never in doubt, nor as close as the final score indicated.
On a night in which the sky above was adorned with a lunar eclipse, West Virginia looked to be lost in space. The Mountaineers were unsettled on both ends early, starting the game 0-5 from the field, and getting beat down the floor twice for transition buckets early. Villanova guard Dwayne Anderson was left wide open twice for three-point shots, both of which splashed through the net with ease. Anderson's second three was greeted with a Bob Huggins timeout as the head coach searched for something to ignite his team.
Joe Alexander's bank shot at the 16:23 mark finally broke West Virginia's field goal drought, but even just four minutes into the game it seemed too little too late for the Mountaineers. West Virginia began 1-6 from the field, and turned the ball over three times in the opening four minutes less than a week after committing just four turnovers in all against Rutgers.
Perhaps the best summation of the first half came on a play in which Villanova's Malcolm Grant missed a short jumper with four Mountaineer players battling under the rim for the rebound. The lone Wildcat battling for the board grabbed it, and fired the ball out to a wide-open Corey Stokes, who calmly sank a step-in three to give Nova a 19-point lead. Stokes, averaging less than four points per game heading into the tilt with WVU, had tied his previous career-high of 13 points prior to the final media timeout of the first half.
"They wanted it more than we did, and I hate to hear that because sometimes that's not the case," Huggins said. "It was just as evident as could be from the beginning of the game. It's my fault, because I thought they were ready. It's my fault because I'm in charge. We've got to find a way to fix it."
The scary part for the Mountaineers? Villanova did all of this without the services of all-Big East guard Scottie Reynolds, who spent a majority of the first half on the bench with two personal fouls. With no Mountaineer defender even in the same area code as Anderson, though, it didn't matter. After scoring 11 of his team's first 13 points, Anderson continued his first half hot streak, finishing the opening frame with 17 points on 5-6 shooting, all from beyond the three-point arc.
In building their 45-21 halftime lead, the Wildcats scored 16 points off of West Virginia turnovers, and went 10-10 from the foul line. Nova was 14-28 from the field, including 7-14 from downtown. By comparison, the Mountaineers were just 9-27 from the field, including an abysmal 0-11 from downtown.
"I didn't think we had bad shots," said Huggins. "I thought we had pretty good shots."
Unfortunately for Huggins and his team, few fell.
Darris Nichols drilled a three from the corner at the 18:44 mark of the second half to end the oh-fer, but Nova's offense continued to roll, this time with Reynolds back on the floor. After being held scoreless in the first half, the sophomore tallied nine points in the second half as the Villanova lead ballooned to as much as 28 points.
While the Wildcats were not quite as impressive in the final frame as they were in the opening 20 minutes, there was no need to be. The same ice-cold shooting which has plagued West Virginia in recent Big East losses to Cincinnati and at Pitt was prevalent again in the City of Brotherly Love.
The Mountaineers finished just 21-59 from the floor, for 35 percent which included a paltry 2-20 from three-point range. West Virginia was also just 12-20 from the foul line, but did manage 32 points in the paint, many of which came in garbage time with the outcome never in doubt. Joe Mazzulla scored 11 points in 30 minutes, and also collected five rebounds to lead the Mountaineers. Joe Alexander also added 11 points, but turned the ball over four times. Da'Sean Butler scored 10 second-half points to finish in double-figures. Sophomore forward Wellington Smith continued his recent growth with eight points and seven rebounds off the West Virginia bench.
Villanova, meanwhile, was an impressive 24-51 from the floor, including a blistering 10-23 from downtown. To add insult to injury, the Wildcats were 20-23 from the foul line. Anderson did not score in the second half, but finished with a game-high 17 nonetheless. Stokes finished with a career-best 16 points. Antonio Pena also finished in double-figures for Nova, which had six players finish with at least eight points.
"We let them gain confidence," Huggins noted. "When you have wide, wide, wide open threes, then you make a couple.
"We went the whole game and didn't get an easy (basket)," he continued. "Your choices, really, are this: you can sit around here and feel sorry for yourselves because it's our fault, we can't blame anybody else. Or, we can go out and try to do something about it on Saturday and next week."
West Virginia returns home to face Providence on Saturday night at 7:00, but does so with wounded hopes of an NCAA bid, with a March 1 game at Connecticut possibly being a must-win.

I like this place because its spacious and quiet. The service is quiet fast and the food are in excellent quality.
My usuals are the frosty, fries and the baconator. I love their fries second to mcdo. ( this one is more healthy in my opinion!) I love their burger because even when they are greasy you can taste the pureness of its flavour all over it. Its a big bite for me to eat this but its really worth it. Its not blant or overwhelmingly oily like huge burgers nowadays.
The place is mostly clean and organized. The ambiance mostly felt like a bit old or down at times. I think because it hasn't undergone renovation.

A man told me to "Go eat a salad!".
So, I went to Wendy's and ordered the 199 Php salad extravaganza!
Upon ordering, the server reminded us that there are rules to this complex and mind-boggling meal.
1. You can only go to the salad bar ONCE!
2. You can not take the left overs home.
3. You should try to eat everything on your plate.
When asked if rule number 3 had any consequences, the server dutifully said this
"Well Mam it is up to you. You can choose to not eat everything and waste the food. Or you can take what you can eat."
That struck me as an awesome thing to say. A gentle nudge not to be wastefull. A little reminder to not defy gravity with the height of the salad.
People usually pile the salad toddler high, take a few nibbles and just leave the rest to the trash bin.
Since the tower, I mean, plate of salad could be shared, I took enough for 2 people.
Ok, 3.
Food was good but the choices for the salad were lacking some key ingredients.
Good cheese and croutons weren't part of the choices.

I never really figured out what iced tea they use here. And maybe that's why I keep coming back for more!
Also, I think it was kind of appropriate that their endorser now is Anne Curtis. Perfect representation of that pretty freckled face.
An order of biggie iced tea costs about 65 bucks.

Of course I tried Wendy's Philippines' new offering - Pretzel Burger.
The bun was not crumbly - less messy to eat.
Lots of lettuce and red onion, and tomatoes.. (Felt like eating a healthier burger.. LOL.), Crispy bacon , cheese , juicy and flavorful patty

Their burger steak's good. Impressive taste for a fast food chain but its just too thin, paper thin in fact.
Not bad for the price, you just have to add 10 bucks to get a soda. But if you're like me who prefers their iced tea, that's 25 bucks for you too.
Overall it's a good alternative to the usual burger. Plus they have wifi. ;)

The weighty, costly, accurate and well-made Sako was overshadowed by the shiny Browning White Gold Medallion. SIG�s SHR 970 well also worth a look because of its barrel-swap feature.
The domestic rifle market is well populated with brands that consumers know well and trust, and as a result, they buy a lot of Weatherbys, Remingtons, Winchesters, Savages, Marlins, and Rugers. These companies make a number of grades of bolt-action guns, ranging from $300 to $350 entry-level guns to much more expensive custom-shop products, and everything in between. But across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, there are few pretty talented production gun makers whose products find favor overseas—and to a lesser extent on these shores—and we wondered how such bolt actions would rank when pitted against more familiar marques.
Thus, we arranged to test three rifles not made in the United Sta...

One Heckuva Taxi Ride
Yesterday, we got a statement from our local ambulance company for Dad's transportation to the air ambulance on his way to San Francisco. Mind you, this isn't the air-ambulance bill: it's the bill for the ground ambulance to pick up a stable patient and drive him to an airfield for transfer to an airplane.
Bill: $1,443.00.
Fortunately, the statement explains that Dad has insurance (thank God!) and that they just need his signature to process the claim. We can do that! No problemo!
There are a few things I don't get here. One is that I've read that paramedics make, like, $23,000 a year, which is criminal considering the work they do. They aren't getting this money, so where's it going?
Also, when Dad collapsed after getting here and was taken by ambulance to the nearest hospital, that bill was only (only!) $909. In that case, he needed medical treatment in our garage and on the ambulance: BP and 02 monitors, oxygen, an IV, etc. When he was picked up at the VA, all of that was already in place, right? So why was the second ride more expensive?
It must be distance. I know the first bill said that was a four-mile ride, and presumably the drive to the airfield was longer.
But, still. Dang!

Highway robbery! Heh! Yes, exactly!ReplyDelete
Not to defend the ambulance companies, but there's a lot of overhead involved in the business. Ambulances themselves aren't cheap, then there's equipping them with all the items the paramedics need, until recently the cost of gasoline has been a major factor, and don't get me started on the expense involved in insurance (both on the vehicle and liability for the crew).ReplyDelete
In the end it costs a serious hunk of change to run an ambulance company.
I think the difference may also be in the quality of training each ambulance crew had; when your dad was picked up at your house, he was picked up by the closest team of EMTs. When he was picked up at the hospital, he was probably picked up by Critical Care-trained EMTs, who brought the ambulance with the critical care stuff on it. Also, while some of the things were already in place from the hospital, a lot of what your dad was carrying with him would have been switched to the ambulance crew's stuff--IV poles, oxygen tanks, monitoring equipment (which can be different enough that you have to redo the patches as well as the wiring and monitor) and such, because the hospital isn't going to send their equipment that they paid to over to SF.ReplyDelete
Also, while the ambulance company only charged you for the time it was transporting your dad, they still paid their EMTs to be ready to pick someone up at a moment's notice.
That said, it's still a huge chunk of change.

Is it wrong to use racially charged words, regardless of your race? Should comedians of any color be allowed to drop the N word or promote gross generalizations about races, including their own, in the name of humor or is this a form of sanctioned racism?
Yes, respectful people don't use those words, in private or public. That is the simple, true answer. My opinion, only.

The Suzume Hills sat between the Lake of Cherry Blossom Snow, Golden Sun Plain, Bells of the Dead and the Three Man Alliance Plain. The area had no natural resorces, infertile terrain and unpredictable weather, and was the home of the Sparrow Clan. [1] A pass connected to the Crane lands, and another one to the Scorpion lands, which was usually blocked in winter. [2]
Landscape Edit
This remote and stony place was deeply inhospitable, with swampy marshlands to the south and rocky dry soil to the north. With no gradual season-changes, the harsh winter was replaced by a summer that dried the soil until it was sandy and parched. The land wqas inhabited by bears, snakes, and other unpleasant creatures. There were only two real passes in and out of the valley, one to the north and one to the south. [3]
Invaded Edit
In 1121 the Scorpion Clan seized the Hills, but they were recovered after the combined army of the Sparrow, Wasp and Fox Clans defeated the invaders in the Battle of Three Man Alliance Plain. [4]

Winner: Greatest Good
Boy Scouts of America Sustainability Treehouse Exhibition Program
Volume Inc.
The Boy Scouts of America and Trinity Works commissioned Volume to design an exhibition program around sustainability principles. The Sustainability "Treehouse", designed by Mithun, is a Net Zero structure that meets the standards of the Living Building Challenge: it is solar and wind-powered, all necessary water is rain-captured, and all waste is recycled and reused. It is part of the Summit, located on former strip mining land and converted into a nature preserve that will permanently host the BSA's Jamboree gatherings, held every four years and bring over 30,000 scouts to the site.
The Boy Scouts, through their nature-based activities and larger mission, have always been agents of sustainability. This project was part of a larger initiative to amplify this facet of scouting to both help the BSA remain relevant and affect change. The project's main goal was to educate Scouts on sustainability and provide them tools to enact the practice in their everyday lives.
Our main challenge was to create an experience that would engage Boy Scouts eager to find the next cool adventure activity at the Summit†zip lines, climbing areas, a skate park†and leave them with a new perspective on sustainability. Nature's natural processes inform the exhibit program which then translates these principles to the everyday living in one's own house. The design avoids outdated and formulaic exhibit solutions and, instead, delivers information in surprising and unexpected ways, down to the humorous and slightly irreverent tone of the exhibit text. The exhibit program also follows the Living Building Challenge principles in its manufacturing and assembly. (See Detailed Summary for specifics.)
This project is situated in a place and for an audience (and client) rarely addressed by the "high design" that the design establishment (and most competitions) celebrates. Hundreds of thousands of scouts from a wide variety of backgrounds and locales around the world will visit this exhibition and bring these sustainability principles back to their schools and family homes. Recent controversies aside, the Boy Scouts membership base is so diverse that it provides an ideal launch pad for these sustainability tools that transcends the usual political divides. Doubly effective in that the agents here are young people, less prone to calcified opinions and worldviews.
This project does not directly sell a product in the marketplace per se, but it has potentially indirect ramifications in that its audience will be bringing the sustainability tools presented here back to their homes, their schools, and the marketplace†both in terms of their consumption habits and, later, as adults in the workplace. Also, by meeting the Living Building Challenge, the building and exhibition program provides a concrete sustainable model for architects, designers, and builders to use in their own projects, commercial or otherwise.
Finally, the highway currently divides two of the most culturally vibrant areas in town (the Arts District and As discussed in the People section, the Boy Scouts organization is a hub for people of very disparate backgrounds and upbringings. This leveling the shared scouting experience not only provides an ideal venue to promote the exhibit program's sustainability principles that affect everyone on the planet, but a venue that allows for the sharing and discussion of them. There will be, at times, over 30,000 scouts from around the world gathered together at the Summit site.
The exhibition program uses tactile, low-tech interaction that encourages collaboration, motivating visitors to incorporate these Net Zero practices into their own lives and communities for the betterment of the planet.
—A "Rain Chain," made of stainless steel camping cups, transfers rainwater falling from the roof into a cistern below. The cistern cleans and purifies the water for the building's use. A drinking fountain adjacent to an LED message board displays how much has been collected and consumed.
—A complete tree and root ball (taken from the site), which_along with a variety of specimens, videos and other content_illustrates its own self-sufficiency in nature and also provides the model for how the building works.
—The "Recyclotron," a Rube Goldberg-esque rolling ball machine encased in a repurposed wood "mini-house" representing a sustainable building running in perfect harmony. Visitors power the machine through a variety of means, most memorably by pedaling a custom-design tricycle that both lifts the balls to the top of the track and gives the rider a sense of how much more effort is needed to power an incandescent bulb versus fluorescent or LEDs.
—Tales of a Deep Green Scout: A short Moonrise Kingdom-meets-An Inconvenient Truth film that plays across three large monitors in the Treehouse theater.
—Both the Spin-O-Pledge wheel and typographic mural give Scouts tips on how to be more sustainable in their everyday lives.
—Scouts can etch a personal sustainability commitment pledge onto a dog tag and attach it to the series of vertical wires installed on the roof.
The Sustainability Treehouse was deemed a "smashing hit" at the 10-day Jamboree gathering of Scouts. During that period, more than 23,000 visitors came through the space. After they visited, 2600 Scouts completed a digital survey. On a 1 to 5 scale, the experience scored 4.55 on all fronts. Handwritten responses included: "Magical," "Fantastic" and "Lots of fun."

SARASOTA, Fla. -- It was a day of sadness and of celebration as friends and family gathered to say goodbye to two teens whose lives were tragically cut short. Justin Ates was only 19 years old and Teria'le Rawls was 17 and both were shot to death in separate incidents just two days apart.
The funeral service for Justin Ates was held at Truvine Missionary Baptist Church in Sarasota.
"Justin was a happy kid."
Charles Shortage was one of Justin's mentors in the Brotherhood of Men program.
"He was a fun guy and lived his life in that direction. He didn't get too serious, I mean he understood his responsibilities and he kind of took things in stride so he was a happy young man."
The service for Teria'le Rawls was at Happy Gospel Church in Bradenton. Rawls aunt, Lesa Snipes-Williams, told ABC 7 the day was about saying goodbye and celebrating Teria'le's life.
"What we want everybody to remember is that she was loving, she was ambitious, she was just a wonderful young lady."
Snipes-Williams says her niece will definitely be missed but she hopes the way Teria'le lived her life will motivate others.
"And what we want everybody to get from this is to keep driving, whatever you want to go through life, just keep driving cause that is what her focus was."
Justin's friends tell ABC 7, he always helped make those around him better.
He was a motivator, he pushed us all to do more and he was just an all around great kid," said Dallas Hill.
Those who knew these young people best are also sharing this message.
"Violence is not the answer. Stop the violence and save our children," said family friend, Natasha Clemons.
"I don't think it is fair. I just want people to stop the violence, that is my message, just to let it go," said Lauren Chaplin.
Family and friends of both teens share the same sentiment, they hope those who are responsible are held accountable and that justice is served.

These bulbs C9-TD-Grn Tripped Dipped didnt last one season. Lights were put up at Tanksgiving and taken down a week or so after New Years and a large majority of them had all flaked and peeled so the clear bulb showed. Especially those on the sunny side of the house. There are great deals and value on 1000bulbs but these bulbs arent one of them.

I use the lights around a restaurant window to draw attention and this particular color is too deep and dark to serve the purpose that I needed. The product and the price are excellent and I recommend this company to everyone. The choice in the bulb was my fault, not the product or company.

It was extremely hard for Dwayne Johnson to keep his ōHerculesö look under wraps while filming the Brett Ratner-directed movie in Hungary last year. But he did it for the greater good of the big reveal.
ōAs an actor, not showing my chiseled, extraordinary, handsome face was a tremendous sacrifice for me,ö he joked on Monday before the premiere of the filmÆs trailer at Las Vegas movie-theater convention CinemaCon.
ōParamount, MGM and I made a pact,ö he added. ōWe wanted to make a massive global and entertaining movie while doing all we could to never reveal the actual look of Hercules.ö
Slowly rolling out photos from the set of the film for the past few months via his Twitter page, Johnson aimed to bring fans along on his journey Ś from his training to his diet and prep.
On Sunday, the 41-year-old actor finally unveiled his ōHerculesö look in its entirety.
Via Twitter, he posted a photo revealing his full beard, shoulder-length brown locks and armor. In the caption accompanying the photo he wrote: ōThe worldÆs first superhero. #TilDeathOrVictory.ö
WeÆre offered hints of the Greek heroÆs abilities in the filmÆs trailer, which debuts wide on Tuesday. In it, Hercules battles the multiheaded Lernaean hydra water monster, the behemoth Erymanthian boar and the massive Nemean lion. In the following clip he classically dons the skinned lion as a headpiece.
But, of course, Hercules is a multifaceted figure, so weÆre also treated to a brief snapshot of the hero absorbed in a tender lip-lock.
The teaserÆs conclusion takes us right back to the barbarousness, with the Greek hero fiercely yelling, ōI am Hercules!ö
At 6 feet 5 inches, the extremely muscular Johnson said he trained harder for ōHercules,ö which hits theaters July 25, than any other role. ōBut in the end,ö he added. ōIt was all well worth it.ö

Gordon "G-Man" Thomas is the lead antagonist in "Flipped" (CI). He was responsible for the murder of rapper Fulla T over jealousy of the relationship between Fulla and Thomas's ex girlfriend Carmen.
Sometime before the episode Gordon shot a police officer. He claimed that the officer did not identity himself as an officer, therefore, killed him in self-defense. The jury, believing his story, found him not guilty. And he was free to roam the streets.
After people saw Bobby Boyd, a DJ involved with both Fulla T and G-Man, get approached by Logan and Wheeler, G-Man pushed Bobby off the edge of his apartment building.
He went to kidnap Carmen at her apartment. But Carmen was already gone. Also attempting to pick up Carmen was Logan and Wheeler. Logan went to the back, while Wheeler went inside the building through the front. Before Logan can catch up to Carmen, who ran up the fire escape ladder, Logan found himself at gun point by Gordon. But Wheeler arrested Gordon but he could shoot Logan.
Believing Gordon would have Carmen killed for telling the NYPD that he was the one who killed Fulla T, Det. Harry Williams, Carmen's godfather, personally disguised himself as a prisoner and murdered Gordon at Rikers.

Ryan is young....but no doubt has his head on straight and willing to work FOR ALL OF US.
Don't know as it was unwatchable...
R/R are 2-0 with two debates to go!
So much for Joe Biden as the great white (dem) hope. There's no one left to bail Obama out. Its all on him going forward.
I don't quite 'get' the polling on this one. Condescending chortles, interuption, and talking over your opponent don't equate to getting your ideas in front of the American public.
And, I reject the meme that Ryan was put on the defensive the entire night....the nature of the election automatically puts the current administration on the defensive.
Ryan did look nervous at times, and he left some things unanswered. I especially wished he would admonish Biden for repeatedly saying 'you guys need to take responsibility'...for what? Romney hasn't held elected office for years...and all these phantom cuts Ryan voted for never became law...because the senate hasn't taken up a budget in years.
Oh well...but oddly, once again the American public has witnessed Barry's penchant for letting other people do the hard work. The more the media shout about how great Joe did, the more we are reminded that Obama isn't ready for prime time. Biden, Romney, AND Ryan have outperformed him.
I'm not sure that "winning" or "losing" the debate was what this one was about.
From my perspective, Biden's job was to staunch the bleeding of the Kenyan's campaign. If he'd have allowed Rep. Ryan a fair hearing, we'd be looking at a >55% - <44% race on election day, with the anti-Christ scoring fewer than 200 electoral votes.
So, the Dem objective was just to prevent Rep. Ryan from scoring the knock-out punch. They were also hoping to get lucky, and have Rep. Ryan react negatively toward the anti-Christ's minion's atrocious behavior. They didn't get lucky; the next Vice President showed himself to be a man of nearly limitless patience. But Biden did achieve the primary objective: He prevented the knock-out punch.
By the same token, the first goal of the Romney/Ryan campaign was to guard against an outright loss. They knew that Biden would attack and try to provoke Rep. Ryan. They knew that Biden would try to simultaneously prevent Rep. Ryan from getting across his message while also trying to get him to behave uncivilly. The Romney/Ryan folks knew their primary objective was for Rep. Ryan to appear serious, personable, knowledgeable, and mature. For them, getting lucky would have been to be able to cut through all the nonsense they knew Biden was going to throw at them, and deliver the coup de grace. They achieved their primary goal, but didn't get lucky.
Thus, the Dems have staunched the arterial bleeding of their campaign, and live to fight another day, but the Republicans continue in a favored position, unharmed by last night's debate.
On balance, it's a modest "win" for Gov. Romney and Rep. Ryan, in that the event mostly just firmed up the status quo, which right now, favors them significantly.
It is sort of a nice bonus that the creature Biden was revealed to all of America for the slimy disease that it is.
Biden looked a little... impaired during the debate. Was it just me or had our Vice President had a couple (or 6) before the debate?
''Unexpected or inappropriate smiling, laughter, or excitement'' is a classic symptom of schizophrenia.
The average voter does not have to have a degree in psychopathology to understand that something was wrong with Joe Biden last night. If the purpose of the debate was to determine which candidate was likelier to end up in a mental institution, Joe Biden won hands down. But if the purpose was to determine who would make a better vice-president of the United States, Paul Ryan had a decisive victory.
Joe Biden is a complete and total ass, who doesn't have the slightest concept of when he is making a fool of himself. I bet Raddatz wanted so bad to pass him a note or give him a high sign to "Turn off the teeth, Joe". I also wonder if the people who were coaching Biden non-stop for the debate for the last week had any idea he was going to pull that crap at debate time. Seems like they must have thought of every possible way Joe Biden could make a fool of himself and drilled him on it.
Martha Raddatz lost the debate BIG TIME!!!!
The other loser was Joe Biden—he lost by default on his smirks and lies!
That leaves Ryan—the survivor by default—as the winner!
walter and Biden
Separated at birth
Paul - we're dealing with Chicago thug style politicians. We need you to put the rabid lying dogs down. Paul - you're a nice guy and a wonk but nice guys will finish last in this race.
I'm a Christian conservative voter. Unfortunately, I saw Ryan as being out of his league last night. My concern is that many independents saw him the same way.
I was taken aback at how biden was yelling and wagging his finger at the moderator. I was wondering if he would have done that to a man and also wondering why his comments weren't directed to Ryan, but rather the woman at the table...
Oh, SNAP.
Awful debate. Biden's smirks, use of the word MALARKEY, and constant interruptions were just too much. The one thing I wished Ryan would have hit on HARDER and would have shut Biden up would have been to hit hard on Harry Reid! Biden's entire line of attack was the Republican House Obstruction. If I were Ryan, I would have pointed out SENATE OBSTRUCTION and SENATE TABLING OF BILLS!
That CNBC poll was an online poll, not a real poll. Later in the evening it had Biden ahead.
Of the two actual polls I've seen, Ryan won the CNN one and Biden won the CBS version of the same.
Personally, I think Biden was so offputting that Ryan wins by default.
FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

"Cops wanna knock me, D.A. wanna box me in. But somehow, I beat them charges like Rocky." - Jay-Z
I haven't tried it yet, but early reviews indicate that it's like drinking liquid ambrosia and having a bit of heaven run across your tongue and drizzle down your throat. (Her words, not mine.)
Starbucks, who should perhaps consider hiring the above-quoted woman to write in marketing, describes it as "a decadent, premium chocolate beverage that is dramatically different from hot chocolate."
My local Starbucks will be having a "tasting" with free samples tomorrow, and, I'm ashamed to admit, I've been trying to plan my day around the few hours that the free drinks will be offered.
("So what if the judge issues a warrant for your arrest? I need my free not-hot-chocolate!")
And, of course, you know that I will report back. But please don't expect me to be as explicitly descriptive as this woman.

Tsk tsk, Ms. Justice! As well you know, as a criminal defense attorney (good on ya!), an attorney's ability to write coherently, expressively, and, yes, descriptively, is near-priceless beyond compare.
