I certainly didn't because I was just two and a half years in the business at the time. i don't think anyone could have predicted that. Certainly, from what I'm told, it's one of the absolute best kept secrets in terms of a turn that I doubt could even be done anymore with the internet and the exposure of wrestling. But, at the time, I believe it was the best kept secret in wrestling.
Of course, I think that had a lot to do with the success of it. Teaming with Dusty as the Superpowers and then of course pitting us against the Four Horseman in whatever combination lead to the success. Pro Wrestling Illustrated, I say this, too: Bill Apter was instrumental in helping with that as well. They did that cover shot where I cried a tear for Magnum T.A. I think it was the first time that the fans thought that the heartless Nikita Koloff actually had a heart. That played a big part in the turn as well.
WrestlingINC: What did you like better: being a babyface or being a heel?
Koloff: You know, I get asked that a lot. Honestly, I enjoyed both equally. I'm glad that I got the opportunity to play on both sides of the fence and experience both. I don't know that I loved one better than the other. They were both a great experience.
WrestlingINC: You eventually left wrestling all together after your wife at the time contracted Hodgkins disease.
Koloff: Correct. I took a sabbatical at the top, main event level to take care of her during her illness, and later on her passing at a young age, before I returned to the ring.
WrestlingINC: When you did return on the national stage with WCW, did you have the mindset back in 1991 that it was going to be a long-time thing or were you just going to see how you felt?
Koloff: Well, when I broke into the business -- and, of course, many have coined me the Barry Sanders of pro wrestling for those who are avid sports/football fans. I walked away really in my early-30's, what is the peak, many times, of wrestlers. I walked away on top of the business which was a goal of mine.
I broke in and I had been at it for about two weeks, and I said, 'I'll be out of this business by the time I'm 35.' it was just a childhood thing of mine, whatever success I achieved in life, I wanted to walk away as a champion on top of the business. Not knowing it was wrestling when I was young but, nevertheless, I was determined to walk away.
So, I was 33 on my way to turning 34 when I made that decision to walk away from the career. I certainly look back with fond memories and no regrets from doing that.
WrestlingINC: Did you enjoy your second stint with WCW?
Koloff: Business changed. It was a mom-and-pop operation with Crockett and became a chapter in Ted Turner's portfolio. He loved wrestling but it stepped into corporate America.
The bell-to-bell time, I loved that and enjoyed that aspect of it. But it became much more political and it was less fun, if you will, outside of the wrestling ring. I did not enjoy that aspect of it. So, when I made the decision to return to WCW, I realized I enjoyed the wrestling part of it... plus, I was newly-married and Victoria had two children, Teryn and Tawni. Now, I was a dad for the first time and I was married. To leave the family each time and to go on the road was harder and harder as well. So, that played a factor in it, too.

Blackberry Lily
From Thomas Jefferson Encyclopedia
Common Name: Blackberry Lily[1]
Scientific Name: Belamcanda chinensis
This Asian perennial, which Thomas Jefferson called "Chinese Ixia," is actually a member of the Iris family. Jefferson first received seed from nurseryman Bernard McMahon in 1807, during his second term as President of the United States.[2] These were sown in an East Front oval flowerbed at Monticello.[3] Today the blackberry lilies that are found naturalized throughout Monticello are believed to be descendants of Jefferson's original plantings.
The Blackberry Lily is a hardy, herbaceous summer-flowering perennial with red-spotted orange flowers on stalks, followed by unusual seed heads that resemble blackberries, but the seeds are not edible.

Advertisement Um, what?Website TorrentFreak reported that through law firms the Polish developer sent "thousands" of letters to BitTorrent users, each asking for €911.80 in compensation for the accused having obtained a copy of the game without paying. Advertisement Not cool.The problem lies not in the fact law-breakers are being pursued, but in the means of identifying these so-called pirates. While CD Projekt claims it is "100 per cent sure" that those being shook down "have downloaded our game illegally", they refuse to disclose how that information can be confirmed, or which company they are using to verify the claims.A move for which there's probably a very good reason. As TorrentFreak pointed out, "CD Projekt's lawyers are also wrongfully accusing people who have never even heard of the game." Sponsored "After all, an IP-address doesn't identify a person, and Wi-Fi piggybacking is not unusual. But CD Projekt, who don't want to bug legitimate consumers with DRM, apparently take this collateral damage for granted."This kind of threat-by-mail is the same used by Codemasters and Atari in 2007-2008, and which ended in farce, consumer rights groups attacking the move and a US judge labelling for what it is: a shake down.

What You Missed at Hammer and Claws
Brown butcher paper rolled out and ready to go...Don't forget the Old Bay!
Liz Barclay
[See More Photo Essays: Roberta's Desserts from Pastry Chef Katy Peetz | Lonestar's Locavore Tacos]
Crab lovers headed to the Chelsea Piers this past weekend, strapped on their bibs and got their hammers ready for Hammer and Claws, an all-you-can-eat crab fest.
Truckloads of blue crabs were brought in from Maryland and doused with Old Bay and other seasonings. To complete the enormous spread, there were side dishes of potato salad, slaw, cornbread, pickles, corn on the cob, and unlimited beer from Abita.
It was madness, but it wasn't a senseless crab massacre: A portion of the proceeds went to the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, to support the Bay's protection and restoration.
Here's a look at the action:

Eye and Vision Care |
Seeing Red Spot When Lights Are Off04/28/2010 |
My 85 year old friend says that when she goes to bed and looks up at her white ceiling, she sees a spot--sometimes red or sometimes more of a purple color. She has had cataract surgery and her ophthalmologist has stated he has never heard of this. What is happening?
I have had many older patients describe seeing images on the blank ceiling, especially upon awakening in the morning. My impression is that these images are usually caused by abnormalities of the retina or vitreous. This could be due to early or advanced damage caused by macular degeneration or some other retina condition. It could also be caused by changes in the density and positioning of the vitreous gel which fills much of the eye.
The retina and vitreous would have been examined as part of a full eye examination. Perhaps your friend has some retinal or vitreous changes.
It is interesting to consider why it might be that a person would only see such images when looking at a white ceiling. I think that the absence of other objects in the field of vision is part of it. That is, the images are not masked by other things that are seen. Also, when a person first wakes up in the morning, he or she is not yet "used to" any small defects in the vision. Over the course of minutes upon wakening, the person becomes accustomed to the defects once again, and they are not noticed.
Bottom line: The fact that she sees the red or purple images on the ceiling should not be worrisome, unless it were to increase substantially in size or frequency and vision were to change in either eye. If that were to happen, she should be re-examined. On the other hand, if this is a stable observation, she has had a full eye examination, and her vision has not deteriorated in either eye (which must be checked by covering the opposite eye), she should not be concerned.

Tyler and Jenny Part 3: Curt's Revenge
Fiction, Blowjob, Consensual Sex, Cum Swallowing, First Time, Lesbian, Male/Female, Masturbation, Oral Sex, Virginity, Voyeurism, Young
Author's infos
Gender: male Age: N/A Location: N/A
Posted Tue 9th of August 2011
Again, in the original story, Tyler was 13, Curt was 12, Jenny was 11, and Allie was 10. But, to avoid further censorship and this story being deleted, I will say that all involved are 18 (Wink, wink)
When I got inside my house, my sister, Allie, was sitting on the couch. I thought about immediately approaching her about what I was thinking, but I couldn't bring myself to do it, especially with my parents still in the house. I went to my room to think. I knew I had to eventually do it. If I couldn't convince my sister to have sex with Curt, I was going to be screwed. He would tell his parents about walking in on me and his sister fucking in her room. I'd be in deep shit. I'd lose a friend, my parents would ground me probably until the day I die, and worst of all I'd never be able to see Jenny again.
I thought about what Jenny told me as she rested her head on my chest in between our sex romps. Was she telling me the truth? Did Allie really talk before about wanting to have sex with Curt? Maybe Jenny was bullshitting me, but if she was telling the truth, the task would be much easier.
I heard a knock at my door. It was mom.
"Hey sweetie. Whatcha doing?"
"Nothing mom. What's up?"
She stepped into my room. "Your dad and I are going in town for a few minutes. Can you look after Allie?"
"Sure. No problem."
Mom and dad left a couple of minutes later. I knew this was a perfect opening for me. I walked downstairs and Allie was still on the couch watching TV. I sat down next to her and watched with her. I waited for several minutes, trying to figure out exactly what to say. Finally, I prepared and delivered.
"Allison, do you have a minute to talk?"
She turned the TV volume down and turned to me. "Sure. What's up?"
"I wanted to ask you a question."
I paused to gain some momentum. "What do you think of Curt?"
Surprise came over her face. "Jenny's brother?"
I nodded my head yes.
"I don't know, I guess he's okay. Why? Are you guys fighting?"
"No, no. I was just wondering."
I could tell she was confused.
"Oh. Okay", she said.
"Well, there's something else."
She waited for me to finish.
"Curt said something to me today and I was surprised and I thought that maybe you should know."
She listened intently. "What did he say?"
I paused again, bracing myself in case this backfired.
"He said that he really liked you", I said.
She tilted her head. "Oh yeah?"
I nodded. "Yeah. In fact he said that there were things that he'd like to do with you."
"Like what?", she asked.
"Like kiss you, touch you, try to make you feel good."
She was slightly startled and her face turned a light shade of red. "Really?"
"Yeah, but he said he probably wouldn't because you wouldn't want to do that with him. But he said if you ever asked him to, he would in a second."
She didn't say anything for the longest time. She just sat and thought.
I decided to break the silence for us both. "Is that something that you would want to do?"
"I don't know. Maybe."
"Well, if so, I can have him come over sometime. But it'd have to be when mom and dad would be gone for a while. They could never find out about it."
Again, she turned silent and thought. I almost said something else to entice her, but she began to speak.
"I suppose that would be okay. I mean, Curt's nice and everything."
I was relieved. "Okay Allie. Only if you're sure though."
She nodded her head. "Yeah, I'm sure."
I was so happy that I gave her a hug. This would guarantee that I wouldn't be in trouble for what happened earlier today. But for me, most importantly, it meant that I could keep on seeing Jenny.
I was in a virtual sprint to the phone in the kitchen. I dialed Curt's house and his dad answered. I asked to speak with Curt. When Curt answered, I gave the great news.
"Okay, she's in."
Curt waited, probably until his dad was out of earshot. "Really? She actually said yes?"
"Yeah, I told you I could sell her on it. So this means we're okay then, right?"
"Not yet. I still have to fuck her. She may back out at the last minute. If she does, it's your ass."
"Don't worry, she'll be ready. The next time my parents will be out for a while, I'll call you and you can ride over here."
"Okay", he said. "Sounds like a plan."
After I got off the phone with Curt, I went back to talk to Allie.
"I just got off the phone with Curt. The next time mom and dad go out, I'll call him and have him come over."
"I think mom said something about going to play cards at Dave and Connie's on Saturday evening", she said.
This was perfect. Dave and Connie were friends of my parents and threw card parties often. Most of the time, these parties started around 6:00 and went well past midnight. All I needed was an hour or so. However long it took Curt to shoot his wad into Allie.
When Saturday arrived, mom and dad got dressed and were about to leave. Mom turned towards me.
"We'll be at Dave and Connie's for a few hours. If anything is wrong, call us."
By now I was used to babysitting for my little sister.
"Okay", I replied.
With that, mom and dad were out the door and into the car.
I walked over to Allie. "Are you still okay with Curt coming over?"
She nodded. "Yeah."
I immediately got on the phone and called his house. Curt answered.
"Hey Curt, it's me. Mom and dad just left. They'll be gone for hours. Get on over here."
"Okay." He hung up.
Asking his parents would just be going through the motions. Both his parents and mine were so used to us hanging out, they never said no.
I stood by the window, more nervous now than I was when I had my encounters with Jenny, probably because I was putting my little sister's virginity up for sale instead of taking someone else's. I looked at Allie, almost as if it were the last time I'd see her again. I noticed how little she was. I noticed her curly blond hair that reached past her shoulders. She didn't spend a lot of time outside, so she had very fair skin. I began to feel a little sorry for what I was doing, but then again, according to Jenny, she had wanted this and had practiced after she found one of mom's dildos. I couldn't even imagine it.
After about 25 minutes, I heard bike tires scratch the gravel driveway outside. Curt was here. He walked in the back door, like he typically did. I walked with him to the front room where my sister was. I sat in the chair while Curt sat next to Allie.
"Hi Curt", she said.
"Hey Allie", he replied.
I could tell they didn't know where to start. Then I realized it may be a bit awkward with me sitting here.
"Allie, why don't you take Curt upstairs and show him your room? I'll be down here", I suggested.
Allie looked at me and then at Curt. "Okay."
She stood up and Curt followed suit. They walked up the stairs and I heard Allie's squeaky bedroom door open.
For the next fifteen to twenty minutes, I tried to watch TV and keep my mind off of what was going on upstairs, but I couldn't help but wonder what exactly they were doing. Was Curt enjoying it? Was Allie? Were they fucking by now?
The curiosity was getting the best of me. What if I snuck upstairs and listened? I could get an idea of where they were in the proceedings. Okay, one quick trip upstairs just to take a listen, then I'll come back down here.
I walked slowly up the stairs, careful not to make any noise at all. When I reached the top of the steps, I walked to the first door on the right, where Allie's room was. When I reached the door, I could hear Curt moaning. I looked at the door and noticed that they hadn't completely shut it. There was about a three inch crack to look through. I peeked in to see it. Curt was lying flat on the bed, completely naked. Allie too was completely nude. I hadn't seen my sister naked since we were both little kids. She still had a total flat chest with small, pink nipples adorning the center of where her tits would one day be.
With Curt lying on the bed, Allie was on her knees and bent over Curt's private region. Her hair had been pulled back and I could see what was happening. She was giving Curt a blowjob. She looked very comfortable doing it too. Her lips were wrapped around his hard cock and moving up and down his shaft slowly. She pulled off and began to jack Curt off. Even though he was a year younger, Curt had about the same size dick that I had. I looked back at Curt, his hands behind his head, still moaning with every stroke.
Allie dipped back down and starting to suck again. This time she went even further down, completely engulfing Curt's boner in her mouth. I was amazed that she could do this and then I remembered that Jenny must have been telling the truth. Allie must have practiced this before and I imagined the dildo she practiced with must be much bigger than either Curt or me. Her saliva-covered lips moved effortlessly up and back down, with her right hand holding the base of his cock and her left hand rubbing his flat, smooth abs.
Curt moved his hands from behind his head and put them both behind Allie's. He was enjoying the feeling of power, just like I did when my hands pushed down on his sister's head as she sucked me for the first time. I looked down at my shorts to see that I had been sporting a huge boner. How was I enjoying this? My sister was being violated. I am a sick son of a bitch. But I couldn't help it. My dick was raging in my shorts.
I heard movement and I refocused on what was happening in Allie's bed. Allie had climbed back up to Curt and began to kiss him passionately. Curt kept his hands on her head and massaged it through her curly, blond hair as he shoved his tongue down her throat. Their naked bodies were rubbing against each other, without an inch of space between them. While they continued to kiss, Allie moved her right hand down to Curt's manhood and began to rub at a slow pace. I looked back down to see my dick still pushing against my shorts, begging for escape. I pulled the shorts down just enough to let my dick breathe. As soon as I brought the waistband down, my cock plunged forward.
I looked back up just as Curt turned Allie on her back and he got on top of her, still kissing. He pulled back and moved his hand down to his fully erect cock. He pointed it straight at Allie's pussy, and slowly moved it forward, so that the head was barely touching her beautifully tight pussy lips. Allie took her hand down and began to fondle her pussy. That put me over the edge. It may have been totally wrong, but I was horny as fuck from this. I began to jack off to the scene in front of me.
It wasn't long before Curt made the entrance. He pushed forward, plunging his boner into my little sister's innocent-looking vagina. He went a little more than halfway at first, but another push and he was fully inside of her. It was definitely much less messy than when Jenny and I first did it. Obviously Jenny was telling the truth: Allie had been practicing.
Both Curt and Allie started moaning with every thrust Curt made. I myself, still going to town on my dick, knew I had to stay quiet or they'd know I was watching.
Allie wrapped her legs around Curt, her feet coming together behind Curt's lunging ass. Curt started to go faster and faster, the moans became louder and more frequent. I was beating my dick so hard, I knew I was going to cum soon. I watched Curt take his left hand and put it on Allie's throat, almost making it look like he was choking her, while his right hand slid underneath her and pulled her back slightly up and off of the bed. Allie responded by putting her hands on the bed and propping herself up.
I was just about to cum, but I had to find something to catch it, so I wouldn't leave any evidence. At the last second, I put my left hand out in front of the head of my cock. I took one more look at the scene in my sister's bedroom, Curt still plunging his rock-hard dick into my sister's young pussy, then I came into my hand. As the ropes of cum flew, I heard myself let out a gasp. I panicked. How loud was that? Did they hear me? I looked up and, to my horror, Curt had turned his head towards the door and saw me. He saw it all: me watching him fuck my sister and jerking off to it. It may have been the best and most frightening orgasm I've ever had. Was he going to freak out and my sister would turn and see me as well? But instead, he gave a smile that I could only describe as perverted. He liked the fact that I saw this. It could have been the perfect payback that pleased him so much.
I wiped the remaining cum off of my dick and pulled my pants up with my other hand. I needed to get back downstairs. But before I turned to go, Curt's face contorted. I knew he was close. I decided to stay, then I could make a break after he finished. He dropped Allie back down on the mattress and pulled his cock out of her. He moved up and straddled her chest, one knee on either side of her. He started to jack himself off. I realized that he wanted to cum on Allie's face. He started to jack off faster and faster. Allie closed her eyes and waited for the explosion. After a few more strokes, a quick rope of cum shot out and landed on Allie's cheek. Two more loads followed, one landing on her chin and the other on the corner of her lips. Curt leaned his dick in a little more. Allie opened her eyes to see a drop of cum still hanging off Curt's cock. He leaned it in, holding just above her mouth. Allie moved her head forward and licked off the cum. She licked the cum that landed on the corner of her mouth and then I saw her throat muscles move as she swallowed. I decided that this was the time I needed to scurry downstairs.
I rushed to the bathroom to wash my cum off my hands and then went to the couch in front of the TV and tried to act as if nothing happened. About five minutes later, I heard footsteps and then saw Curt arrive at the bottom step. Allie was still upstairs. Curt came over and sat down.
"Thank you. That was awesome. We're cool now", he said.
"You're welcome. At least we're even", I replied.
"Yeah", he paused. "I saw that you enjoyed that too, a little."
I was so embarrassed. My face must have turned an all-new color of red. "Sorry about that. I don't know what I was thinking."
"That's okay. Wanna hear something funny?"
I nodded. "Sure."
"After I caught you and Jenny fucking, I was totally pissed and ready to kill you. But we straightened things out and you left. Then I got to thinking about what I walked in on: my totally naked sister getting doggystyled and screaming in pleasure. I got a little turned on and jacked off to it later on."
I was shocked. "You're kidding."
"No, I swear", he said. "So it's okay that you did that. Don't feel bad or anything."
"Cool", I replied.
After a couple seconds he started to speak again. "I have an idea, if you're into it."
"What's that?"
"Next week, my grandparents are leaving for vacation. They gave me a key to their house so I can go in and feed the cats every day. I figured that me, you, Jenny, and Allie could all ride over on our bikes and hang out over there for a while."
I could tell that 'hang out' meant fuck our brains out: me on his sister and he on mine.
"Yeah, that sounds good. To be honest, I was worried that you wouldn't want me to be with Jenny ever again."
He shook his head. "I don't mind, as long as you don't mind me being with your sister."
"I think we're in agreement then."
He smiled and stood up. "I have to get going. I'll call you next week and you and Allie can ride over to my place, then we'll go from there."
"Sounds good", I said. "Seeya later."
He walked out the door, hopped on his bike and left. A few seconds later, I heard Allie coming down the stairs. When she saw me sitting on the couch, she sat down beside me and put her head on my shoulder and wrapped her arm around me, putting her hand on my left side.
"Thank you", she said. "Thank you for letting us do that."
I didn't know what to say. She looked up at me.
"So you and Jenny have been doing this too?"
"Curt told you?", I asked.
"Yeah, after we finished. I'm glad though. We can both start doing things with guys now, instead of just each other."
I didn't think I heard her right. I replayed what she had just said in my head, then I looked at her.
"What do you mean?"
Allie smiled. "We just like having a little fun together."
I couldn't believe it. My sister and Jenny were having a lesbian relationship. I was at a loss for words.
Allie began to speak again. "She's a screamer isn't she? One time I was licking her pussy and she yelled so loud that I thought you might have heard us from downstairs."
"You did that in your room while I was here?"
"Sure. We did it upstairs in my room. She even ate me out in her room, while Curt was in his room, only a
few feet away. He could have walked in at any time and caught Jenny face-down in me."
I was halfway between shocked and completely turned on. This was a whole new ballgame. I couldn't wait until next week when we could all get together. This was going to be a good time.

A biographical item about retiring Fox Midwest manager Larry Breuninger in Boxoffice of March 31, 1956, said that the circuit had bought the Jayhawk Theatre at Salina from him in early 1932.
Breuninger's career had outlasted the theater's. Boxoffice of January 15, 1955, said that the Jayhawk was being dismantled. The building was to be converted for business use.

Sony on Thursday unveiled an impressive 3D display that can be viewed from any direction. The screen, development of which was announced earlier this week, is on show until Sunday at the DC Expo in Tokyo.
The screen sits in the upper half of a black, circular case that's 13 centimeters in diameter and 27 centimeters tall -- about the size of a small blender. Sony is keeping the technology used in the display under wraps except to say it uses an LED light source.
The produced image appears to have depth to it and can be viewed through 360 degrees around the device.Objects displayed on the screen included a globe, car, cartoon character and model.
Sony created the objects either in 3D on a computer or by keeping them still while taking photographs from all around. As a result it's possible to walk around the display and view each object from any angle on the horizontal plane.
So, for example, when a model's head was being displayed a visitor could walk to the other side of the screen and see the back of her head. The screen has a resolution of 96 pixels by 128 pixels, which doesn't sound like it would make for a very good image but is surprisingly good, especially when images of people are displayed.
Sony has two of the displays on show at the DC Expo, both of which are early prototypes -- and possibly the only two prototypes judging by the "No.1" and "No.2" stickers on them -- but bigger screens could be on the way.
While it has taken Sony roughly three years to develop the prototypes, it will not take a great leap to make versions with larger screens, said Naoya Eguchi, general manager of the photonics development department at Sony's core device development group. He hinted that a larger version would be ready sometime in 2010.
Sony sees several potential uses for the screen.
"This is a very good display for educational purposes and there are many design applications," said Ryoji Chubachi, vice chairman of Sony, in an interview. "There are so many, I'm expecting to accept many proposals from visitors."
As for when it might come to market, Chubachi said that for now Sony is soliciting ideas on how it might be used and then will consider future plans.
"It all depends on the application," he said regarding commercialization. "If we can develop a good application then we'll invest more."

If there were ever any doubt that PC users love the hell out of mods, hopefully the statistics from Skyrim's various modding outlets will bury them … and then salt the earth to make sure such terrible doubts never arise again.
Bethesda has revealed that 13.6 million downloads have been made through Skyrim's Steam workshop (and it's probably more now, since the information is a few hours old). But even that number pales in comparison to the downloads from SkyrimNexus, the third-party mod site.
There, the number is almost 80 million. However, the somewhat more embarrassing news for the videogames community is that mods like 'Female Body Mod Big Bottom Edition' tend to dominate the top downloads from that site.
Still, the point of modding is being able to tweak the game even more to your tastes. If those tastes happen to be a little lonely, so be it.

Colonials Lose to No. 12 Princeton, 6-4
GW Fights Hard, but Comes Up Short Versus Nationally-Ranked Tigers
Oct. 17, 2004
WASHINGTON, DC - The GW men's water polo team (4-16, 1-7 CWPA Southern) pulled within one goal of No. 12 Princeton (16-4, 8-0 CWPA Southern) on two occasions in the second half, but couldn't overtake the Tigers as they defeated the Colonials, 6-4, on Sunday, Oct. 17 at the Smith Center Pool.
GW rallied from a 4-1 deficit in the second quarter to make the score 4-3 on a tally by sophomore John Hornberger with 5:17 left in the third period. After a goal by Princeton's Chris Kelsch 39 seconds later, Colonials' freshman John Jennings scored to get GW within one again, 5-4, with 51 seconds left to play in the quarter. Princeton's Michael Murray provided the winning margin, notching a goal with three seconds left in the third frame to close the game's scoring as neither team could put one in the cage in the final period.
GW also got goals from senior Nick Koenemann and freshman Nick Eddy in the match, while freshman Chris Whittam made seven saves, all of which came in the first half.
The Colonials grabbed an early 1-0 lead at the 6:18 mark of the first quarter on Koenemann's tally, but the Tigers recorded four consecutive goals to claim a three-goal margin before GW's rally.
All-American John Stover led the Tigers with three goals and Peter Sabbatini made three saves in the cage.
The Colonials will compete at CWPA opponent Navy on Wednesday, Oct. 20 at 4:00 p.m.

I have been given a sony Ericsson K800 3 Megapixel by my son some time ago but no manual can you help me to get some instructions.
Many thanks
I Love k800 very much laaa...it is one of the best mobile in sony ericsson...i lov it soooo much.....thanks for sony company....
The Sony Ericsson K800i phone features one of the strongest camera present in any camera phone. It has a 3.2 megapixel, Cyber Shot digital camera, made by CMOS-technology. It provides a good picture quality and a wide array of imaging features to the phone .
Anonymous, 11 Nov 2007I say the Nokia N80 is a better phone than the K800. The camera however, is inferior to the K ... moreall 0f y0u that saying that the n80 is the best?? d0nt y0u see it? its 0bvi0usly the k80oi is s0 much better than n80!! use y0ur brain men!! the s0ny ericss0n is the best camera ph0ne!
i us se k790 & i m happy wid its picture quality, i satisfied wid my phone, i never use n80 dats y i cant say anything,, bt for me my cell is better,,
Anonymous, 16 Feb 2007I beg u all not to buy this N80 phone. this phone video quality is very bad . In daylight the ... moreU should set your video settings to MPEG4, not 3GP. Best 3GP on Nokia N80 is BAD, your video should be beather :D
k800 s camera is probably better than n80 s camera...but n80 is a SMARTPHONE!!!!!and is much better than k800!!
I'm a gr8 fan of SE and i'd prefer K800 for camera use as it's camera is way ahead from N80 and for business use i'd prefer N80 as it has more gr8 functions for business people
I wonder who the hell is buying a Nseries phone from Nokia regarding the camera? It's a bussiness phone, not a multimedia/imaging one... Ok, the review it's about these phones' cameras, but the main difference between them is really something else... I'm thinking about conectivity, and the rest...
I've n80 and have not seen k800 at all, i'm setisfied with this camera, but i don't like organizer a lot. I used to have 2610, and it had better one:D

FOXBORO - Second string quarterback Ryan Mallett discussed newcomer Tim Tebow and life as Tom Brady's backup during Day 2 of the New England Patriots mandatory mini-camp Wednesday.
Mallett told the media after practice he did not feel threatened by the Patriots bringing in Tebow.
"There's always competition at every position so you know it is part of the job," said Mallett, drafted in the third round (74th overall) of the 2011 NFL Draft by the Patriots. "I've continued to improve to get my body in shape … You want to do your best and perform. I'm going out to help the Patriots. I'm a Patriot. All this other stuff being talked about, I don't have anything to do with it. I come to work every day as a Patriot and try to get better."
Mallett and Tebow both played in the SEC in college; Mallett for Arkansas and Tebow for Florida. Mallett was very complimentary of his new teammate.
"He's a great player," said Mallett. "Tim is a student of the game. He asks question to Tom and to me. He's had a little exposure (to the New England offense), but not a lot. I'm just trying to help him out."
Mallett is entering his third season as a Patriots backup quarterback. He said Brady has been a great influence on his growth as quarterback in the NFL.
"Of course, I would loved to have played when I came in, but seeing how the game works … I feel it's like something that has helped me," said Mallett. "I can hear Tom all the time. He'll give me little pointers and I'll ask him some times when we're watching film and I'll ask him what should we do right here. He's great guy and a great teammate. He helps out and its fun playing with him.
If Brady does leave a game this season for any reason, Mallett said "if my number's called, I'm ready to go."

I love my old FCS TC Redlines and the Sunny Garcia's. They hold really well in big surf, and make my swallow tail able to surf in heavy waves. My old school buddy who shapes everything from hydrofoil wakeboards to semi-guns still swears by glass ons. I thinks he is too set in his ways, but he can way outshred me so he is probably correct. But less skill = need for crutches/ gimmicks and I will try everyone until I too can shred 23 footers and 2 foot mush with aplomb. Photos not forthcoming.
you'd have to prove that for me to believe it. An empty future box leaves a pretty square big hole (fcs, not so much). The drag might not be so noticable, but, mentally, it's pretty ugly...like the gaps under fcs fins. I'm buying a box filler for my empty center box...looks better.
once, I started to make my own fins...then realized it was more complicated than I thought and the possibility of making a real pos was too high. Leave it to the computers and cnc machines - much better product. However, if you have some old fiberglass glass-ons, ripped of your old 80s boards, you can cut out some tabs and make some nice/cheap trailer fins for fcs quads or a tri (just be sure to score a notch on the sides of the tabs so they can break away under too much stress). Never tried to do that for future boxes, but seems equally as easy.Last edited by waterbaby; Jul 17, 2013 at 02:02 AM.

unless water is sticking hard to the bottom of your board (bad) it's passing over the open boxes. i know you think it's not 'aerodynamic', or whatever, lol, but the 'hydrodynamics' involved with surfing say otherwise. modern boards are mostly based around some sort of concave bottom which puts air under your board and the pressure in the empty box lets water pass right over it.
i've made tons of fins over the years. out of all kinds of materials. not to hard. especially fcs. too easy. futures are a little more involved. people have been making fins since way before machines got involved. but i understand that it's not for everyone. it involves trying, and some people are just better at being consumers.
your worried about looks....lol. don't want to ruin your tufflite popout, surfboard modeling career huh? i hear you though, surfing is very psychosomatic.Last edited by AtanticO; Jul 17, 2013 at 11:01 AM.
huh? still no proof and a lot of small wave boards use a V bottom through the center, not concave.
we also haven't seen any these "tons" of great fins you've been making. How did you put "cant" into your home fins?...or are they all just completely vertical? Even if you posted pics of them (and they were actually your work), the details, sight unseen, would be questionable...and performance could only be determined by riding them. You've implied you're not worried about looks, so has this transferred to your fins?
Yeah, I like to look as good as possible when surfing...it's called style. Surfers with no style are called kooks. When things are ugly for no reason, I fix it. If I have to make things ugly for better performance, I do that too. I haven't owned a tuflite since 2008, but when I did, I sanded off all the gloss coat to make it function better - some would say I "ruined" it. I recently saw a photo of a pro with a box filler in his center future slot...doubt he's getting paid for that, so maybe he knows something we don't.Last edited by waterbaby; Jul 17, 2013 at 05:55 PM.

hahaha! your too funny. did you really say "i like to look as good as possible"? either your a flaming homo or a high school girl. do you work for a living? what you said translates to: im a mindless, hyper consuming, trustfundbaby who is brain washed by advertising. i want to be just like the cool dudes with pretty stickers and fashionable surf gear!
style is about HOW you surf. if you consider 'style' being fashionable while walking down the beach then you should gay-bash yourself.
claiming you haven't owned a tufflite since 2008... was that during your 'confused' phase in college?
your wrong about v bottoms. most modern 'small wave' shortboards have concave to V out the tail. but you shouldn't think to hard about it, its over your head.
yeah, i just make fins by beating on them with rocks and sticks. lol. i grew-up working in a glass shop. have family members who've also worked in the industry for along time. sh!t, i learned how to layup fins from the masters at rainbow fins. but you've never heard of them because you obviously haven't surfed too long kid. i can tell you'd get mean-mugged right out of lineup most places. yeah, your one of those.
why don't you get back on your razor scooter and wiggle your way back to fashion week... cupcakeLast edited by AtanticO; Jul 17, 2013 at 06:32 PM.

I'm all about the DIY... but I don't underestimate the skill of a great fin foiler. It takes a good eye and a good hand... even better if you have two! I've built a lot of fins, mostly out of wood, but will tell you I'm no master, and would much rather trust the guys at True Ames or Rainbow than myself when it comes to building a perfect fin. There's no shame in saying you're a lousy fin foiler... it's a special skill set, IMO.
As far as ventilation goes... I'm not sure fin box drag and ventilation are related. But I will say that once the plug slots are filled with water (not air... that would be my guess) it's the same effect... very little drag. The cosmetic issue is a personal choice.

wow, you're really getting bent out of shape...or caffeine is getting the better of you. You talk really big on the internet...compensating? Gotta admit, you're really getting the unnecessary derogatory comments thing down pat - nice work.
you said it yourself: the V travels down the centerline of the tail...right where the center box is.
Actually, I've owned several rainbow fins - they're decent, but I've had better. They're made in Santa Cruz, just north of where I surf...didn't know they had a factory in jersey. As far as your "apprenticeship", I wouldn't be surprised, at this point, if you're blowing that way out of proportion, too.
you can sit around and mean mug all you want, but I wouldn't give a **** considering I'd be busy surfing...and well. Style is all inclusive.

SYNOPSIS:Unmarried Manhattan couple Marion (Julie Delpy) the photographer and Mingus (Chris Rock) the radio jock, who each have a young child from prior relationships, find their comfortable family dynamic jostled by a visit from Marion's relatives: her father Jeannot (Albert Delpy), her sister Rose (Alexia Landeau) and Rose's annoying boyfriend Manu (Alex Nahon). To add to the tension, they all arrive on the eve of Marion's one woman exhibition of photographs - where she will also offer to sell her soul.
Review by Louise Keller:In a misconceived dallying with culture clash, Julie Delpy's exploration in this disappointing follow up to 2 Days in Paris never even gets close to taking off. Equally misconceived is the idea of casting funny man Chris Rock as the straight man to Delpy's vulgar French family, whose antics are not only unbelievable but supremely embarrassing. As Rock confides to his radio DJ microphone, he used to believe the French were elegant, but after being confronted by his girlfriend's offensive father who smells of cheese, her promiscuous knickerless sister and druggie boyfriend, he is at a loss and almost ready to be seduced by a gormless listener with X-rated fantasies.Dysfunctional families are one thing, but self-indulgent nonsense that feels as though it is a gauche exercise of drama school improvisation and whose brief it is to come up with the most ridiculous of concepts, is quite another. It is especially disappointing as I like Delpy and her body of work - especially Richard Linklater's bookend pieces Before Sunrise and Before Sunset in which she co-starred with Ethan Hawke and on which her '2 Days in..' concept is seemingly based.It is through finger puppets that Delpy informs us, the audience, that time has marched on since those days in Paris and that she (Marion) is now a single mum in New York, living with single father Mingus (Rock). The name Mingus rhymes with 'cunnilingus', a fact we are told several times by Marion's sister Rose (Alexia Landeau) after she, her boyfriend Manu (Alexandre Nahon) arrive through customs with their father Jeannot (Albert Delpy). The scene in which they are held at the airport with the confiscated French cheeses and sausages is admittedly rather funny. But you have to feel for Rock, when this larger-than-life family descends on his apartment, Rose flaunting her naked body and Jeannot seemingly playing a never-ending game of charades.I liked the idea of Rock talking to his idol Barrack Obama, by way of a life-size cut-out in his study, and the notion of Marion selling her soul to Vincent Gallo for $5,000 at her gallery opening is rather wild. But neither idea is well developed and we are left to groan at scenes like the one in the sauna with gauche double entendres and the all-time zinger in which Marion feigns she has a brain tumour.Apart from one scene in which Central Park shines with her glorious autumn colours, we see little of New York; most of the time, we are stuck in a charmless apartment surrounded by offensive French loonies making tasteless, racist remarks and offering little by way of laughs or genuine entertainment. It is such a shame, because the potential is thrown away and we are left with a hollow script crammed with would-be cheap laughs and a talented cast that is left floundering.Review by Andrew L. Urban:Julie Delpy showed her filmmaking prowess with the funny, sharply charming and engaging 2 Days in Paris (2007), and while she wanted to ride the same train, so to speak, out of respect, she wanted to avoid making a sequel with the same boyfriend, along the lines of Before / After Sunset made by her friend Richard Linklater in which she stars. But what she has done is worse: she has made a sequel that doesn't work. She is still saying love is a pain in the ass, but she has moved the location to New York, where the central character, Marion (Delpy) now lives with her new boyfriend Mingus (Chris Rock) and Marion's young son from the previous guy, played by Adam Goldberg, and Mingus' little daughter.Delpy's dad Albert turns up again as Jeannot (now a widower) and overdoes the clowning that was so much more fun and more credible the first time. Indeed, it's the lack of any credibility that mars this film, even though it is played as naturally as an improvised work, all blotchy phrasing and interrupted lines.There is latent promise in almost every scene, and the concept is well developed. But it's all rather rushed and perfunctory, never allowing the audience to invest in any of the characters.It's Chris Rock who comes out of it best, perhaps surprisingly, playing Mingus as a bemused and sometimes bewildered onlooker as Marion's crazed family disrupts his life. Rose is not beyond starting a loud public slanging match with her sister, or walking around with her bum showing when neighbours call, and dad is not beyond making a spectacle of himself.The other outstanding performance is that of co-writer Alexia Landeau as Rose, a complex and vibrant character with nothing predictable about her.But while all this madcap fun has potential to provide some insight and grounded comedy, it seems shallow, pretentious or desperate. Why else write a silly subplot about Marion selling her soul at her exhibition and build a scene with the buyer that does nothing to dispel our feeling that the idea is unworthy of Delpy.Lacking the bite and originality of the Paris film, 2 Days in New York is a meandering, spineless set of comedic (sometimes not so comedic) sketches. Much is made of things like the name Mingus rhyming with cunnilingus, part of the general tone of candid sexual referencing that jars - not because it's shocking but because it is pointless.The cinematic move out of Paris seems to be cursed: Woody Allen had similar problems trying to replicate the success of Midnight in Paris when he concocted To Rome with Love.

It's a long story...
So here's the short version: My local arts council asked me to do a demo at the arts festival this weekend. 15 minutes? What could I do in 15 minutes? Print with some found objects on a gelatin plate and then add a couple of quick screens -- all while explaining what I was doing.
I had already gotten blue paint on this shirt at my workshop last week (see lower right)so decided to go all the way. Here it is, as of yesterday. I've added a few flourishes since then, but it's essentially the same. The audience LOVED it -- a transformation from a dirty shirt to -- well -- to what?
Now I've been asked to do this with 100 boy scouts. Gelatin printing t-shirts. When and IF I am insane enough to do this, you can be sure I will let you know.

BILLIONAIRE Clive Palmer has been appointed to a key position at a new organisation that will advise the Brisbane G20 summit and counts the former US presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter among its members.
The mining magnate is the joint secretary-general of the World Leadership Alliance, which has been formed in the US as a joint effort between Club de Madrid and the World Economic Council.
The announcement was made in Little Rock, Arkansas, by the former Dutch prime minister Wim Kok, who is also the president of Club de Madrid, which includes Mr Clinton and Mr Carter as members, along with the Burmese Opposition Leader, Aung San Suu Kyi.
Mr Palmer said the alliance would be a key adviser to the next G20 summit. Arkansas Online reported one of several goals of the new partnership was to boost sustainable technology use globally.
The former LNP life member shares the post of joint secretary-general with the former Spanish foreign minister Carlos Westendorp.
Mr Palmer called the appointment significant and said he was honoured to be given the role.
''The alliance will draw on the individual and collective leadership experience as well as its members' profiles to support current leaders who are facing challenges of democratic development in a turbulent environment,'' he said.
He said he was very passionate about the role and was looking forward to contributing to democratic leadership on a ''global scale''.

This morning, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit issued its mandate in the Company Doe case, making its April 16 decision final. The court also denied a late request filed by the consumer groups involved to recover their court costs. The company that successfully challenged the CPSC's intent to publish an inaccurate report, but was unsuccessful in seeking to keep the misleading report and the company's identity from being released through its court challenge, has decided not to pursue further appeals. It has revealed its identity as Ergobaby, which makes baby carriers as well as strollers, car seats, and other products.
In a statement issued today (and reprinted in full after the break), Ergobaby explains that the inaccurate report submitted to the CPSC's online database, saferproducts.gov, involved a sad situation in which an infant choked on a foreign object while the child happened to be in one of its baby carriers. The tie between the tragedy and the baby carrier, according to the company (as well as the federal district court's decision finding the report inaccurate), was purely coincidental, and it sought to avoid the spread of information that could mislead the public regarding the safety of its products. Ergobaby provides information about the incident, report, and litigation, including a detailed Q & A, on its website.
The district court, in accordance with the Fourth Circuit's ruling, is expected to soon release an unredacted version of its ruling and unseal other documents filed with the court.
Parents Should Have Access To Accurate Information
LOS ANGELES, CA — May 8, 2014 — Ergobaby today acknowledged they are Company Doe. In doing so, Ergobaby released a statement saying "We prevailed in court and prevented the publication of a false and misleading report about a tragic event because we knew it would cause undue concern among the families who have trusted the safety of our products for over ten years. We went to court because we believe that the public deserves accurate and useful information from government agencies. No public interest is served by the spread of false and misleading information." This statement is in response to the U.S. Circuit Court's ruling in Case Doe to unseal court records on First Amendment grounds, without changing the underlying decision that prevented the publication of an inaccurate incident report by a government agency.
For over a decade, the company has built trust with millions of families who use its baby carriers and the company wants to reassure those families that its products have always been, and continue to be, safe.
After receiving an incident report in 2011 from the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) that an infant had died while in an Ergobaby carrier, a thorough investigation was conducted. Even after the CPSC's own expert concluded that the tragedy was caused by choking on a foreign object, the CPSC attempted to publish an inaccurate incident report. The District Court confirmed that the Ergobaby carrier was not related to, or in any way contributed to, this incident and therefore, the report should not be published.
The company's statement continues, "It was an unfortunate coincidence that the tragedy occurred in our carrier. The experts and the court agreed that the baby choked on a foreign object. As a company and parents ourselves, we grieve for the child and the family involved."
In making the announcement, Margaret Hardin, CEO of Ergobaby, said, "We truly hope that in reporting this Fourth Circuit ruling, the media will communicate our deep concern about how this misinformation could affect the millions of families who use our carriers. We hope that they will also communicate that the Circuit Court ruling, although ordering the lifting of the seal of the court documents, reaffirmed the District Court ruling that the claim was false and therefore should not be published in the CPSC database. For Ergobaby, safety has always been, and will always be, our top priority and parents should not lose confidence in our carriers based upon one false report. We continue to stand by the facts and the court decision that our carrier was in no way related to this tragic incident."
CPSC's saferproducts.gov was created to help the public make safe choices in the products they purchase. The company fully supports that mission. However, it also comes with an obligation to ensure that the public is not exposed to misleading information about products. There are no reports on the CPSC's saferproducts.gov related to Ergobaby carriers because the carriers always have been, and continue to be, safe.
District Court Judge Alexander Williams understood why Ergobaby sought to seal the court documents. In his decision he wrote, "Although the law favors access to judicial records, the facts of this case overcome this presumption. The challenged report is materially inaccurate."

Dangerous to stack these?
Dangerous to stack these?
Hey - A few guys I work with have started training with this guy who is trying to get on at a local gym as a personal trainer. Hes training them for 2 months for free so he can use them for his portfolio. None of these guys have ever really worked out before, they're also pretty young (18-22) and naive. I noticed they're getting some pretty big gains very quickly and asked about their workout each morning, and thats when they told me about the supplements they're taking. The P.T. said that they're just some "normal and completely safe workout supplements, like creatine". Turns out they're taking some things called T-Roid, H-Roid, S-Roid and a liver blocker.
Now, I know next to nothing about steroids and certaintly don't judge anybody doing them, but I'm not sure if this dude is being completely up front with them... So, is taking these together for 2 months pretty safe? If not, would you recommend taking a different combination of them? Thanks. - 09-21-2009, 01:57 PM
Christ, T-roid I believe is basically tren xtreme, H-roid is a H-drol clone and S-roid is a superdrol clone.
These are steroids, and can be dangerous if used improperly. This trainer is a ****ing idiot and putting these kids lives in danger. These kids need to get off these steroids and onto a proper PCT. 21 is the MINIMUM age that you should be to even consider being on any of these. They also need to go get bloodwork done to make sure there liver isn't shot to death, especially if they have been on this **** for 2 months.
This "trainer" should be locked up, what an idiot.. - 09-21-2009, 02:53 PM
This P.T. should be shot! H-roid is a Halodrol-50 clone; T-roid is a Tren precursor; and S-roid is a Superdrol clone! He's having kids who shouldn't be messing with this stuff at all taking 3 different Pro-hormones/Designer steroids.
What's particularly troubling is that 2 of these substances (H-drol and S-drol) are 17aa, and hepatotoxic (that's why he's having then take a liver protectant--not blocker). The S-drol is a very potent steroid--it does not convert to a target hormone like many other Pro-hormones--which is active in its original state, thus the term designer steroid. S-drol was actually developed by a pharmecutical company decades ago, but they decided not to market it for human use due to risk of side effects vs. benefits. To repeat, S-drol is very potent and the most hepatotoxic of the 3 substances by far; it should NEVER be used by young kids or those new to training and PH/DS use (and even then only for periods of 3-4 weeks with good liver support supplements, such as milk thistle and "Livercare")!
This is so outrageous having these kids using ANY of these substances! I usually take a live and let live attitude, but this guy needs to be stopped now!!! This could potentially really harm these kids, and it gives the rest of us knowledgable adults who are trying to use these substances responsibly a very bad name!
Crowbar - 09-21-2009, 08:30 PM
Man you have to bring this up with those boys or the gym or something.. this guy need to be ousted from training.. and dotted in the eye
ha ha, thats funny. "look at my clients results!"
i would never suggest anyone im training to use anabolics. even though i love them. too much risk doing something like that. - 09-21-2009, 11:31 PM

GALLERY: Whittlesey commemorates centenary of outbreak of First World War with vigil
PUBLISHED: 12:04 05 August 2014 | UPDATED: 13:25 05 August 2014
The centenary of the outbreak of the First World War was commemorated at a vigil in Whittlesey last night.
Whittlesey First World War vigil
Members of the Royal British Legion's Whittlesey branch organised the vigil, at the town's war memorial, with the legion standard and the Cambridgeshire Regiment Old Comrades Association standard both raised.
Candles were also lit at the memorial, with all but one blown out shortly before 11pm, the time 100 years ago that Britain declared war on Germany.
Judy Darby, the town's Poppy Appeal organiser, read out a short poem from the First World War and Whittlesey councillor Ken Mayor, legion branch chairman, read the Exhortation.
Cllr Mayor, whose grandfather was killed in the First World War, said: "The legion held its monthly meeting on Sunday and we agreed to hold a vigil to commemorate the war effort with the standard raised.
"A group of about 20 residents also joined us for the vigil and placed candles on the memorial."

Bot policy[baakanya]
Hello. To facilitate steward granting of bot access, I suggest implementing the standard bot policy on this wiki. In particular, this policy allows stewards to automatically flag known interlanguage linking bots (if this page says that is acceptable), which form the vast majority of such requests. The policy also enables global bots on this wiki (if this page says that is acceptable), which are trusted bots that will be given bot access on every wiki that allows global bots.
This policy makes bot access requesting much easier for local users, operators, and stewards. To implement it we only need to create a redirect to this page from Project:Bot policy, and add a line at the top noting that it is used here. Please read the text at m:Bot policy before commenting. If you object, please say so; I hope to implement it soon if there is no objection, since it is particularly written to streamline bot requests on wikis with little or no community interested in bot access requests.

Global AbuseFilter[baakanya]
AbuseFilter is a MediaWiki extension used to detect likely abusive behavior patterns, like pattern vandalism and spam. In 2013, Global AbuseFilters were enabled on a limited set of wikis including Meta-Wiki, MediaWiki.org, Wikispecies and (in early 2014) all the "small wikis". Recently, global abuse filters were enabled on "medium sized wikis" as well. These filters are currently managed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and have shown to be very effective in preventing mass spam attacks across Wikimedia projects. However, there is currently no policy on how the global AbuseFilters will be managed although there are proposals. There is an ongoing request for comment on policy governing the use of the global AbuseFilters. In the meantime, specific wikis can opt out of using the global AbuseFilter. These wikis can simply add a request to this list on Meta-Wiki. More details can be found on this page at Meta-Wiki. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on m:Talk:Global AbuseFilter.
