Dating With Tinder
What It's Really Like To Date With Hookup Apps
Pages: 1 2

"After a casual date or two, the expectation is that you're going to get laid."I joined Tinder last month at the insistence of my friends. Before I downloaded the app, I had no clue what it was, but listening to my buddies raving about it, you'd think it was the second coming of Facebook.
For guys who love looking at pictures of girls in bikinis and frivolously casting a split-second judgment on them (guys like me, I mean), it came pretty close to being the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Well, for a week or so anyway.
Tinder is essentially a more relationship-centered, less meet-up-and-have-sex version of Grindr. On Tinder, both men and women flip through Facebook pictures of the opposite or same sex, and gawk and gush before selecting a few pretty faces from the yearning masses. There's a short bio, age and mutual friends listed, but who's really paying attention to that stuff when your Tinder flame is wearing next to nothing on the beach?
If you're thinking about Tinder in a PG-13 sense, then, yeah, the two of you can "like" each other and have a conversation on the app. You can then go out for vintage Sauvignon Blanc, stroll along the East River and tell your friends how impressed you were when she started spouting off the principles of French Impressionism, but who really wants any of that?
Most guys I know are content looking at the cleavage shots, and in the case of a match, asking the girl if she wants to meet up and grab a beer. After a casual date or two, the expectation is that you're going to get laid.
I expected the world from Tinder when I first started. I'd received a flood of screencaps from my friends of ridiculous conversations they'd had and scantily clad college girls.
It did, however, take me a few minutes to get used to the fact that I was, for better or worse, dating online. This unnerved me. Forever I'd boasted that I would never do online dating. I wasn't that desperate, and losers met girls online. Not me. No, no.
Tinder is sort of a loophole. It isn't really "dating," and the Facebook angle made me feel like I was just repurposing the ubiquitous social media site. On Tinder I could preserve my cooked-up desirability and masculinity while secretly praying that the smokin' young blonde would like me back.
More often than not, this wasn't the case, but in my first week on Tinder, I gained quite a few matches -- 20 or so. Most I struck up charming conversations with, remarking on the gorgeous weather (it was 15 degrees that week) or making some bold, unfunny claim about their profile picture (I repeatedly asked a girl whose picture was her holding a baby why she listed her age at 23 when she wasn't a lick of 23 days old.) Stupid jokes, obviously. Many didn't respond, some did indifferently and others were very into it.
One girl in particular took well to my childish sense of humor. We were fast "friends" after I told her she looked "dangerous" in her profile picture, in which she was holding a prop gun on what looked like a film set. Now I realize what I said was probably flirtatious, though I just mentioned it idiotically, and out of a lack of other conversation starters.
For about a day or two, "Sheila" and I messaged quite a bit, which should have been a sign, considering after the initial match phase I could barely get other women to message me back at all.
Sheila was my age and spunky, very talkative and hardly bashful. She was, at least according to her pictures, curly-haired, Latina and seductive, with questioning eyes and a stern glance. I was into it, I thought. Next Page >>

I recently picked up this little pamphlet on track racing in France. And with the TDF just around the corner, it seems like it was a good time to post it up.
The title roughly translates to 'Track Cycling – Speed' and it was authored by 4 time [cough] world track champion Lucien Michard.
Michard in himself has a very interesting story. He won his first major sprint at 19 in the Paris 1924 games taking home the gold against rival Jaap Meijer of Holland. Michard then went on to win four-ish World Professioal Championships, the first being in 1927. But here is where the story gets interesting. Michard actually won a total of 5 world championships but lost the 5th on a technicality that the UCI was unwilling to overturn. [please detect sarcastic tone here] I know, the UCI being firm on matters that seem unfair. Weird, I know. At any rate, Copenhagen 1931
was the scene of the crime. Michard was up against a local rider, Willy Hansen. Michard beat Hansen by half a meter. But during the vitory lap, as Hansen raised Michard's hand in congratulations, the official accidentally announced Hansen as the winner!
According to UCI regulations, once an offical makes a call it sticks, no matter what the circumstances. The goal of this rule was to prevent cyclists disputing race results, but in this case it surpassed its original intention. Michard appealed the decision with the blessing of the official but the UCI denied his request and to this day, the win is recorded as Hansen's.
Now onto the pamphlet. Actually there is not much to say seeing that I don't speak french. From what I can gleam, it's all about racing strategy including attacking, riding position, equipment and so on. There is also a nice little section that lists "Les Grandes E´preuves Du Sprint" or Major Sprint Races. The records stop at 1928, so I'm guessing this is booklet is from 1929 or 1930.
Since I wasn't able to translate, I've included a gallery below with all the pages. Fee free to send us any translations or things you find interesting and we'll gladly update this post.

Values promoting understanding, compassion, and service to those in need, are an important part of the Catholic school experience. As a faith community, we encourage students to accept others rather than exclude them, and to understand the difference between right and wrong. Students commit themselves to the service of God through service to others.

[Lisle Street, Leicester Fields, Aug. 1766]2
There is a Bookseller at Paris, one Dessain,3 who has some Character, but has play'd me a very ugly Trick. I bought of him two Volumes of Buffon's Natural History and paid him thirty Livres4 for them; but as M. Buffon made me a Present of them afterwards, Dessain took them back. I gave him a pretty large Commission of Books to be sent to me to the Care of David Wilson,5 and I left among the rest, these two Volumes of Buffon, together with Mrs Macaulay's History6 and some other Books. He has sent over several Parcels to Mr Wilson, but will neither send over my Books, nor answer my Letters nor take any Notice of me. He lives on the Quay des Augustins, not far from you: I wish you woud speak to him and threaten him a little. Tell him I shall prosecute him either myself on my Return to Paris or by Order, if he do not send over my Books and Money. I wonder he acts so foolishly: For my Commission woud be more profitable to him, than so small a Pittance as this sum.
You may see in M. Dalembert's hands the whole Narrative of my Affair with Rousseau along with the whole Train of Correspondence. Pray is it not a nice Problem, whether he be not an arrant Villain or an arrant Madman or both: The last is my Opinion; but the Villain seems to me to predominate most in his Character. I shall not publish them unless forc'd, which you will own to be a very great Degree of Self denial. My Conduct, in this Affair, woud do me a great deal of Honour; and his woud blast him for ever; and blast his Writings at the same time: For as these have been exalted much above their Merit, when his personal Character falls, they woud of Course fall below their Merit. I am however apprehensive that in the End I shall be oblig'd to publish. About two or three days ago, there was an Article in the St. James's Chronicle copyd from the Brussels Gazette, which pointed at this Dispute. This may probably put Rousseau in a Rage; he will publish something, which may oblige me for my own Honour to give the Narrative to the Public. There will be no Reason to dread a long Train of disagreeable Controversy: One Publication begins and ends it on my Side. Pray, tell me your Judgement of my Work, if it deserves the Name: Tell D'alembert I make him absolute Master to retrench or alter what he thinks proper, in order to suit it to the Latitude of Paris.
Were you and I together Dear Smith we should shed Tears at present for the Death of poor Sir James Macdonald. We could not possibly have sufferd a greater Loss than in that valuable young Man.
David Hume
In a little time, I go down to pass a few Weeks with my Friends in Scotland but direct still to me at Miss Elliots: My Letters will follow me. I wish I had a strong unanswerable Motive to determine me whether I shall live henceforth in London or in Paris. My Inclination and indeed my Resolutions lead me to the latter place; but my Reason points out the former. I for [ ]7 :ar, that I would have a great Facility to continue my History [ ]. Clamour of Faction on both Sides seems to have subsided: But c[ ] me a good Reason, why I should put myself to that Trouble? [ ] Compliments to Baron D Holbach.
[1 ]'Paris' is struck through and 'a Compiegne' added twice, in another hand.
[2 ]As the Postscript indicates, Hume was staying at the London boarding house kept by the sisters Ann and Peggy Elliot. The date of the letter is suggested by the references to the quarrel with Rousseau.
[3 ]Jean Dessaint (d. 1776), commenced bookseller in 1720; associated with Charles Saillant (1716–86): their firm is mentioned passim in Rousseau's Correspondence, ed. R. A. Leigh (Geneva, 1964– ).
[4 ]In WN (I.iv.10), Smith stated that the English pound was reduced to a third of its original value, and the French pound to one sixty–sixth, by his time. This would suggest that the livre was worth about one shilling.
[5 ]Bookseller in the Strand, London (d. 1777).
[6 ]Catherine Sawbridge (1731–91), md. (1) Dr. George Macaulay, and (2) William Graham. The first volume of her History of England was published in 1763, and Dr. Macaulay sent a copy to Hume in Paris. The last of the eight volumes appeared in 1783.
[7 ]MS. torn.

text: With this week's Make This Look, I feel like I'm cheating just a little. styleARC patterns are up-to-the-minute and designed to reflect the current trends but when I saw the Country Road dress I couldn't resist making the connection. styleARC patterns have excellent reviews and from my experience (I have a styleARC pattern currently on the sewing WIP list), their customer service and fit is excellent. They do come in one size so measure carefully but I found that being drawn onto a quality paper it was much easier to do my required alterations (which I'd have to do with any pattern to adjust to fit), much easier and quicker. The other excellent feature of styleARC is that they can provide their patterns in up to size 30.

It depends on which web server you're using (Apache? Nginx?). You ask for "step by step" instructions, but did you watch the screencast at all? It does explain this stuff...
Anyway I think you should chain / bundle the certs in the following order in your case:
cat WWW.EXAMPLE.COM.crt NetworkSolutions_CA.crt UTNAddTrustServer_CA.crt AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt > cert-bundle.crt
Then just follow the directions in the screencast.
Great episode, as usual. This one and the previous are particularly useful as so many people just don't pay enough attention to these issues.
I usually prefer forcing https with nginx directly, though, rather than in the application; it's simpler, somewhat "lighter" and I don't need to have to worry about this being properly configured and tested in the app. It's more like set it and forget it.
E.g. I usually have two "server" blocks, one for http and the other with https enabled, and the http block only contains:
`rewrite ^(.*) https://$server_name$1 permanent;`
Besides, I don't think it's a good idea either to only force SSL for some sections of an application: cookies travel with all http requests, regardless of whether https is in use or not. In theory if there is even a single thing on a site that requires authentication, the whole app should run under https, not only some sections for this very reason. I blogged about this not long ago.
A couple tips:
there's a gem called powder that makes it easier/nicer to work with Pow.
I can't remember whether it was this episode or the previous one that suggested to hardcode 'https' in links and refs to images when needed. Something like:
image_tag "https://...."
You can also just omit the protocol altogether - this will make sure that all the resources loaded / linked on the page "follow" the protocol used by the page itself, i.e.:
image_tag "//...."
This way all images etc will use http or https depending on the protocol used by the page itself.

The Historical Society of Princeton Celebrates the Lincoln Highway Centennial
America's first transcontinental road, the Lincoln Highway, originates in Times Square, New York and terminates in Lincoln Park, San Francisco, traversing across a total of 14 states. The route has become affectionately known as "The Main Street Across America."
Envisioned by Carl Fisher, an Indianapolis Automobile entrepreneur who also developed the idea of the Indianapolis 500, the Lincoln Highway is the largest memorial to President Abraham Lincoln, predating his monument in Washington, D.C. by 9 years. As the first automobile road across America, the Lincoln Highway brought great prosperity to the hundreds of cities, towns and villages along the way.
In Princeton, Nassau Street became a part of the Lincoln Highway when it was established in 1913. In conjunction with its current exhibition, We ♥ Princeton: Stories from the Street, the Historical Society of Princeton is honoring the Lincoln Highway Centennial with a musical performance on Friday, April 19 entitled An American Songline: A Musical Journey Along The Lincoln Highway.
Cecelia Otto, a classically trained singer, composer, educator, writer and self proclaimed "Professional Artistic Journeywoman," will perform music from the 1910s, 20s and 30s. A mix of folk songs, show tunes, operetta and classical numbers, the program consists of songs either about the Lincoln Highway, or ones once performed at concert halls along the highway in the first decades of its existence.
Music is an integral part of American history and culture, and Ms. Otto hopes to share that history with as many public audiences as possible.
"I named this project American Songline to celebrate the roads that our 'ancestors' made and to allow them to live again through music," says Otto. "I will travel the entire length of the route from New York to California over several months, giving musical performances in every state. I will then not only write about the journey, but also write new music as well. American Songline will thus be both a book and a CD about my journey across the country." Her project has been endorsed by the National Lincoln Highway Association. For more information, visit http://americansongline.net
When: Friday, April 19, 5-7 PM
Where: Bainbridge House, 158 Nassau Street, Princeton
Cost: Free, donations accepted
Alice Greenwald to Speak in Princeton on March 14th
Alice Greenwald, Director of the 9/11 Memorial Museum, will speak in the Community Room of the Princeton Public Library on Thursday, March 14th, 2013, at 7:00 pm. The talk,"Memory and Meaning: Building a Vision for a Museum at Ground Zero," will focus on the challenges of commemorating the attacks of September 11th and outline theprocess of planning the museum.
The National September 11 Memorial Museum will serve as the country's principal institution for examining the implications of the events of 9/11, documenting the impact of those events and exploring the continuing significance of September 11, 2001. Providing visitors with access to the historic assets preserved at the World Trade Center site, the Museum will display both the monumental artifacts associated with the events of 9/11 and focus on the human dimension of history by narrating the personal stories behind these events.
Also serving as Executive Vice President for Programs at the National September 11 Memorial and Museum at the World Trade Center, Ms. Greenwald previously served as Associate Museum Director for Museum Programs for the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. Greenwald has also served as Executive Director of the National Museum of American Jewish History in Philadelphia; Acting Director, Curator and Assistant Curator of the Hebrew Union College Skirball Museum in Los Angeles; and Curatorial Assistant at the Maurice Spertus Museum in Judaica, Chicago.
The event is co-sponsored by the Public History Initiative (Department of History, Princeton University), the Princeton Public Library, the Historical Society of Princeton, and Princeton University's Program in American Studies. Richard Anderson, a graduate history student at Princeton University and coordinator of the Public History Initiative, noted that the attacks of September 11th were felt on both the national and local level, with twenty-seven Mercer County residents among the victims. "The Public History Initiative wanted to hold a history-related event that would be meaningful to the entire Princeton community, not just to scholars," he said. "Ms. Greenwald's talk is a natural fit because the events of 9/11 had an enormous impact on Mercer County."
The event is free and open to the public, but space will be limited. Reservations are not required.
The Princeton Public Library is located at 65 Witherspoon Street, at the corner of Witherspoon and Wiggins Streets, in Princeton Borough. Library parking is available in the Municipal Garage at Spring Street, located adjacent to the library. For directions, please visit www.princetonlibrary.org.

A Windmill Turns Again at the Historical Society of Princeton's Updike Farmstead
The Historical Society of Princeton hosted a party on Saturday, November 17 to celebrate the reinstallation of the Updike windmill. Visitors enjoyed exploring the beautiful grounds of the Updike Farmstead, as well as three new exhibitions in the galleries of the restored late 18th/early 19th century farmhouse. Guests also enjoyed browsing the incredible jewelry of Brad Reh Estate Jewelry and partaking in seasonal refreshments.
The original windmill, which can be seen in several photographs in the Farmhouse history gallery, was taken down in 2006 for safety reasons, and rebuilt by E&R Windmills out of Bethel, PA. The project was underwritten by generous contributions from Steve and Treby Williams and Ann Lee Saunders Brown. The project was managed by architect Ronnie Bregenzer, who generously donated her time and services. Baxter Construction poured the foundations and also provided a generous donation to the project, as did project engineer Harrison Hamnett. The pump house was painstakingly refurbished by Sam Pirone. The windmill, which retains the original tank structure, is an iconic feature of the Farmstead which will be the centerpiece for new environmental programs on site.
Also dedicated at the party was the Sipprelle Unity Garden, made possible by a generous donation from Scott and Tracy Sipprelle. The Unity Garden is now at the core of education programs on health and wellness, and some of the produce grown is being donated to area organizations. In October, student volunteers from the Princeton Friends School harvested spring mix lettuce that was used in a Cornerstone Community Kitchen (CCK) dinner at the Princeton Methodist Church. Windmill Party guests brought juice boxes and paper products that were donated to the CCK, which works in partnership with the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen.
Updike Farmstead, at 354 Quaker Road, is currently open to the public one Saturday each month, with the next opening on December 15, from 12 to 4 PM. For more information, please visit www.princetonhistory.org, or call (609) 921-6748 x102. Quaker Road is open to Farmstead visitors from the Mercer Street side during open hours.

"O Say Can You See?" Music of the War of 1812
The Historical Society of Princeton and Nassau Presbyterian Church have announced an exciting night pairing history and music in honor of the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812.
On Friday, September 28, "O Say Can You See?" Music of the War of 1812 begins at 7:30 with a lecture by Dr. David Hildebrand of The Colonial Music Institute, from Severna Park, Maryland, followed by an 8 PM concert and post-performance reception. Guest artists will include singers from Westminster Choir College and recorder player John Burkhalter of The Practitioners of Musick.
Last spring, WWFM The Classical Network sponsored Dr. Hildebrand to produce a one-hour radio program entitled Broadside to Anthem: Music of the War of 1812, which was largely recorded at Nassau Presbyterian Church. Much of this material will be presented during this concert, which will showcase the huge variety of American songs inspired by the war. The program culminates in the true telling of the birth of the Star-Spangled Banner in September, 1814, dispelling several lingering myths along the way.
From the early stirrings of party politics under President Adams, the traumatic effect of Jefferson's Embargo in 1807, through the triumph at Fort McHenry, Americans took pen to paper to tear at political opponents, to dramatize the great sea battles between huge frigates in full sail and to laud battle heroes, like William Hull and Oliver Perry. In addition, marches, dance tunes and songs, both for and against the war, were sung at home, on the streets and in theaters.
Tickets prices are $20 for adults; $15 students/seniors/Historical Society members. A portion of the proceeds will go to benefit the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen.
Annual Bainbridge Club Party
On Sunday, September 16, the Historical Society of Princeton held its annual Bainbridge Club Party and History Awards presentation at the home of T. Jeffery Clarke in Princeton, NJ. PNC Bank / PNC Wealth Management received the Community Leadership Award.

To honor the memory of this inspiring First Lady of both New Jersey and our nation, the Historical Society is presenting the Ladies, First! Luncheon Speaker Series. The series celebrates the accomplishments of women in the public and private sector who have had a significant impact through their work. The catered luncheons are warm and intimate, like Ellen's own social events, bringing together a group of women to engage in spirited discussions of today's topics of importance. Funds raised through the series will be reinvested to support the Historical Society's educational programs.
The first luncheon featured Princeton native Carole Sonnenfeld Geithner, a social worker, professor and author, who is married to Tim Geithner, current Secretary of the Treasury. Ms. Geithner spoke about her new book, If Only, the story of a young girl coping with the death of her mother.

A Concert Under the Stars will feature a 90-minute live performance by The Bacon Brothers, the rock/soul band formed in 1995 by actor Kevin Bacon and his brother Michael, an Emmy-winning composer.

"This 'grand' opening is a way to thank our supporters with a wonderful outdoor concert," said Erin Dougherty, Executive Director. Our Farmstead is truly "Princeton's backyard," and what better way to celebrate among friends than with great music and food, under the stars!"
The Society is very pleased to announce high level corporate sponsorship for the event from Baxter Construction and Idis. "We are deeply gratified by the financial support of these companies. Their sponsorship is both an endorsement of our mission and a symbol of their own civic-mindedness," said the Society's Board President, Scott Sipprelle.
The Updike Farmstead opened to the public in 2011. The site includes a renovated late 18th/early 19th century farmhouse, a large barn and several outbuildings on six acres of beautiful, historic grounds.

Historical Society of Princeton Celebrates Black History Month
The February celebration of Black History Month can be traced back to 1926 when Carter G. Woodson established "Negro History Week." This month, the Historical Society of Princeton proudly joins with the Numina Gallery at Princeton High School by displaying objects and photographs related to the experience of African-Americans in Princeton.
For the Numina Gallery's exhibition "Princeton Black History: A Pictoral Retrospective," Princeton High School students visited the Historical Society's library to research, then printed, matted and framed the photographs for the exhibition. Historian and educator Shirley Satterfield and Former Township Mayor James Floyd were interviewed, and the video of them speaking about their Princeton memories is shown in the gallery. The exhibition is open by appointment through February 24.
An outdoor sign from Jimmy's Barber Shop, at 141 John Street, a promised gift from Ms. Satterfield, is on display at the Historical Society's Bainbridge House, along with Rex Goreleigh's watercolor, Mary Watts' Store. On view at the Society's Updike Farmstead site is Goreleigh's Field Workers (Tomato Pickers), on loan from the Witherspoon Street Presbyterian Church.
Throughout the 20th century, numerous African-American-owned businesses flourished in Princeton's Witherspoon-Jackson neighborhood. James Mack established Jimmy's Barber Shop in 1961. He worked previously as a barber at his uncle's shop on Witherspoon Street. Claude Mack's barber shop began serving the community in 1935.
Artist Rex Goreleigh (1902-1986) arrived in Princeton in 1947 to direct Princeton Group Arts (PGA). Despite persistent segregation in Princeton in housing and employment, PGA and Goreleigh sought to foster inclusive, community-wide participation in all aspects of the fine and performing arts. Goreleigh himself painted Princeton streetscapes and residents, and particularly focused his art on the experiences of African-American migrant workers in central New Jersey.
"We are so pleased that the Historical Society was offered the storefront sign from Jimmy's Barber Shop for our collections," said Eileen Morales, Curator of Collections. "This sturdy, hand-painted sign helps document the many African-American-owned businesses which thrived in the Witherspoon-Jackson neighborhood."
Ms. Satterfield leads tours of the Witherspoon-Jackson neighborhood on The Albert E. Hinds Memorial Walking Tour: African-American Life in Princeton. Group tours can be arranged by calling the Historical Society at (609)921-6748, extension 102.
Bainbridge House is open Wednesday-Sunday, noon to 4 PM. The Updike Farmstead is open Wednesdays and Saturdays, noon to 4 PM. Admission is $4, which includes same day entrance to both sites on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
Historical Society of Princeton Celebrates Two Princeton Icons
Visitors to the Historical Society of Princeton are now able to get a two-fer, in more ways than one. Walk into Bainbridge House on Nassau Street and learn about the life of Albert Einstein through rarely-seen furniture, memorabilia and photographs. Venture two miles south to the Updike Farmstead to take in the landscape paintings by First Lady Ellen Axson Wilson.
Einstein At Home, a special exhibition featuring selected pieces of furniture from the Einstein Collection of the Historical Society of Princeton, offers an opportunity to glimpse the personal side of the world-famous scientist, who lived in Princeton from 1933 until his death in 1955.
The exhibit, which opened last February, was scheduled to close in January, but, due to its popularity, has been extended to August 19. "We're encouraging our visitors to share their personal stories of encountering Einstein in Princeton through a new hands-on gallery activity," said Eileen Morales, the Historical Society's Curator of Collections.
Hours are Wednesday through Sunday, noon to 4 PM. Admission is $4. On Wednesdays and Saturdays, the Historical Society offers a "two-fer:" admission includes entrance to both Bainbridge House and the Updike Farmstead.
Located in the heart of the Princeton Battlefield/Stony Brook Settlement Historic District, the Updike Farmstead consists of 6 acres of land, a restored late 18th/early 19th century farmhouse and several outbuildings, including a large barn, built in 1892, corn crib and wagon shed.
The farmhouse galleries are open every Wednesday and Saturday, noon to 4 PM. Tickets purchased there for $4 also include same day admission to Bainbridge House.
Opening February 1, The Art of First Lady Ellen Axson Wilson: American Impressionist, features landscape paintings by the first Mrs. Wilson that span the years 1902-1913, which include her time at Princeton during her husband's presidency of Princeton University. The exhibition has been organized by the Woodrow Wilson House, Washington, DC, with generous support from the James Dicke family. Local support for the exhibition generously provided by Robert O. Carr.
"Having the work by Ellen Wilson and the Einstein Collection up at both sites is truly a groundbreaking time for HSP," said Erin Dougherty, the Historical Society's Executive Director. "We are excited to offer these stellar exhibitions to our wonderful visitors and devoted supporters."
On February 18, from 1-3 PM, a special drop-in workshop will be offered for Presidents' Day weekend, with a twist: the day will focus on the First Ladies. Children can play a First Ladies/Presidents matching game and, inspired by Ellen Wilson, paint their own watercolor landscape. The activities are included with museum admission.

Some serious losers on these lists guys.
The only one I'd even take a flier on is Moore.
Smith is surrounded by incredible offensive skill talent and has a top 5 O-line in front of him. You are an absolute fool if you think you know better than Jim Harbaugh. Who has the West locked up and knows you can't win Super Bowls unless your QB can win games. Smith is TERRIBLE.
We are in a serious rebuild that needs to happen and nothing can be forced.
You have to realize that any new GM brought in that has to keep Rex is immediately hamstrung and his analysis can't even begin until Rex is then gone.
Here's what needs to happen at QB:
Nothing. If Tebow is going to be strong-armed into starting by the owner, it needs to be allowed to happen.
This team needs to stink. To either draft the guy in my signature or to draft Manziel who looks incredible.
I'd reassign Tannenbaum within the organization, draft a top-talent-level running back this year or see if you can peel LaMichael James, Kendall Hunter, or Ben Tate away from their teams since Greene has got to go and allow Rex to see that Ground and Pound even with a 260 lb. running QB doesn't win jack.
Going into a draft that getting the top pick in is VERY feasible following next year's abortion, you cut ties with everybody, bring in a new offensive head coach who has developed a young QB recently (Jay Gruden) and a GM from one of the best built-within teams in the league (Kevin Abrams, Assistant GM of the Giants.)
Let Abrams draft Clowney or Manziel. Let Gruden start working on your young QB, whoever it ends up being.
Fans grind your teeth and bear it. The next 2 following seasons will most likely stink pretty badly.
But if you enter the 2017 or 2016 season with a young stud QB and a d-line with Muhammed Wilkerson, Jadaveon Clowney, Kenrick Ellis, and Quinton Coples with secondary that still has Darrelle Revis in it at the least, you are going to win games.
I hate to say this because most will say it's not guaranteed, but you definitely have to take steps backwards to secure permanent forward progress.
The Giants stunk for Eli's first few years. But look now:
Even at 9-7 is there a more feared team in the league going into the playoffs?
Also, while mulling this all over keep in mind that this approach has been taken once in the 24+ years I've been watching the Jets:
It occurred when Parcells got Abraham, Pennington, and Ellis in the same draft. That's how you do it.
Anybody who says to get Polian is a complete loser, too.
He assembled two teams that outside of a single year that Bob Sanders stayed healthy, did nothing but repeatedly and consistently lose big games.
People always blamed Peyton, but the blame always lied with Polian. The defensive talent was always subpar outside of Freeney and Sanders on those Colts teams.

It's a potential trap game on Saturday for Kansas State as the Wildcats host a Kansas team they should easily handle, but KSU could be due for a letdown after its big upset of Oklahoma. K-State is a 24-point favorite on Bovada.lv.
KSU was off last week after shocking the Sooners 24-19 in Norman on Sept. 22. John Hubert ran for 130 yards and a touchdown, Jarell Childs scooped up a fumble and returned it for a score in the upset. Collin Klein picked up 228 yards of total offense and ran for the go-ahead touchdown early in the fourth quarter in a solid performance that outshined and error-filled night by Sooners quarterback Landry Jones. K-State coach Bill Snyder got just his second win vs. Bob Stoops. His only other win head-to-head had come in the 2003 Big 12 championship game, with the Wildcats losing in the other eight meetings.
The fumble return for a touchdown was one of three turnovers forced by the Wildcats vs. OU. It was the first time a K-State team forced three or more turnovers against Oklahoma since at least 2001.
K-State was 3-of-3 in the red zone on Saturday night with two touchdowns and a field goal. The Wildcats are 18-of-20 in the red zone this season. Of the last 80 red zone chances dating back to last season, K-State has scored 71 times, including 54 touchdowns. Over the last 14 regular season games, K-State is 63-of-70 in the red zone with 52 touchdowns. In the last six wins, K-State is 29-of-31 in the red zone with 23 touchdowns.
Kansas also had last week off. The Jayhawks last took the field Sept. 22 and lost 30-23 at Northern Illinois to drop to 1-3 in Charlie Weis' first season. Northern Illinois running back Leighton Settle scored on a 2-yard run with 4:33 left to cap a 53-yard drive and the Huskies' 17-point fourth quarter. The short field was set up when Huskies defensive back Joe Windsor sacked Kansas quarterback Dayne Crist. KU has now lost 16 straight road games.
The Jayhawks lead the all-time series with the Wildcats, 65-39-5, but have lost three-straight to KSU entering the 2012 contest. Kansas owns a 28-23-3 advantage in games played in Manhattan and picked up a 30-24 win over the Wildcats in 2007.
WagerWeb.com trends: Under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings in Kansas State. Favorite is 14-3 ATS in their last 17 meetings. Jayhawks are 4-13 ATS in their last 17 meetings. Jayhawks are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 meetings in Kansas State.

Olympics hurt UK retail, according to BRC Tuesday, 4th September 2012
UK retail sales were lower in August as the Olympics hurt store traffic, according to a survey carried out by the British Retail Consortium (BRC).
BRC director general Stephen Robertson said there was "no evidence here of any Olympic boost to retail sales overall".
Stores in central London saw a steep drop in visitors for the duration of the Olympic Games.
The BRC also said "lower footfall in London was offset by a better performance in the rest of the country".

Progress seen in last-minute 'fiscal cliff' talks
read more recent story comments Reader commentschildrensDOlearn Monday, December 31, 2012: 11:17 am More from childrensDOlearn Rating: -4 | This farce is as coordinated as I have ever seen: "Democrat" and republican millionaires working with big media to prepare Americans for a bipartisanerrific austerical "solution" to the republican manufactured debt "crisis." What we are witnessing is the oligarchy and their stooges taking steps to ensure they will never have to pay back the money that they stole from our social security trust fund, and to make sure our citizens do without even the most basic human rights of food, shelter, clothing, and health care. Hyperbolic? I don't think so. If you do, you haven't been paying attention the last 30 or so years. |

Indianaag Monday, December 31, 2012: 11:49 am More from Indianaag Rating: +8 | I heard one news commentator yesterday put the blames squarely where it belongs... the American Voter. I have always been afraid of and will always be afraid of legislation cobbled together in these late night and back room parlors. Whatever document or deal they come up with will be too long and lengthy for anyone to read before a vote is taken. I thought the "super committee" was a bad idea and I thought to postpone action on this until after the election was a bad idea and I think the idea of "kicking the can down the road" is a bad idea. So once again, we, the people who will be affected by this legislation will have to feel the pain of another action beyond our control... wait, this is what we voted for. |
evenkeel Monday, December 31, 2012: 12:01 pm More from evenkeel Rating: neutral | I'm really enjoying the great American freak-out over this. It has turned everyone into an armchair economist and has us all using big terms like CPI and marginal tax rates and socialism and stuff. Fact is, nothing terrible will happen. It will be stop-gapped and kicked down the road. The debt will grow. The deficits will remain. Taxes and spending will both go up. BUt guess what? We'll just print more money to take care of things. And we'll bomb somebody to take our minds off the superficialness of it all. We're dealing with numbers that are almost incomprehensible. We can't ever pay back $16 trillion no matter what we do. So we default? What are they going to do? Come get it by force? We have the biggest military on the planet. Good luck with that. We all know its all Obama's fault because he's the only government we've ever had. I care, but not enough to pretend it really matters what I think. Our government exists in a vacuum and has nothing to do with the other 300+ million of us. Its numbers on paper. Blah blah blah. Happy new Year. |
jstarcs Monday, December 31, 2012: 12:06 pm More from jstarcs Rating: -1 | Indianaag is right on the money. The commentator I saw yesterday was David Brooks, and he was right to point out that the voters want all the benefits the Democrats (and some Republicans) promised, but they don't want to pay for them. The Democrats say that it is the fault of the selfish "millionaires and billionaires," but they don't make enough money to erase the colossal deficit being run up right now. the skids are just greased further when charlatans like Paul Krugman say deficits don't matter, and we are not spending enough. What happens when foreigners get tired of buying our debt. Where do businesses get capital when available funds are soaked up by government debt. What happens to pensions and savings as the Fed keeps printing more money? We are living in a fool's paradise temporarily buoyed up by the Euro crisis. |

DRM Monday, December 31, 2012: 12:15 pm More from DRM Rating: -5 |
I think you have Krugman confused with Dick Cheney. Krugman, the good Keynesian he is, is not in favor of federal deficits during boom times, but sees them as good medicine for slow times. There appears now no crowding out as you pretend. Business, the big time, is flush with funds, which they seem to prefer to save and speculate with, which given the still limited consumer demand makes some sense. But let's have some of that good old Mellonesq2ue austerity and strip the economy of even more demand and let's just watch business investment grow, right? |
rm Monday, December 31, 2012: 12:24 pm More from rm Rating: -5 | charlatans like Paul Krugman say deficits don't matter, When did he say that? He does think it is useful to borrow money at times. Most people do. |

Présentation de l'éditeur
"A wonderfully dark thriller with amazing 'Is-it-isn't-it?' suspense all the way to the end." --- NY Times bestselling author Lee Child
Homicide detective Adam Garrett is already a rising star in the Boston police department when he and his cynical partner, Carl Landauer, catch a horrifying case that could make their careers: the ritualistic murder of a wealthy college girl that appears to have Satanic elements.
The partners make a quick arrest when all evidence points to another student, a troubled musician in a Goth band who was either dating or stalking the murdered girl. But Garrett's case is turned upside down when beautiful, mysterious Tanith Cabarrus, a practicing witch from nearby Salem, walks into the homicide bureau and insists that the real perpetrator is still at large. Tanith claims to have had psychic visions that the killer has ritually sacrificed other teenagers in his attempts to summon a powerful, ancient demon.
All Garrett's beliefs about the nature of reality will be tested as he is forced to team up with a woman he is fiercely attracted to but cannot trust, in a race to uncover a psychotic killer before he strikes again.
"Compelling, frightening and exceptionally well-written, Book of Shadows is destined to become another hit for acclaimed horror and suspense writer Sokoloff. The incredibly tense plot and mysterious characters will keep readers up late at night, jumping at every sound, and turning the pages until they've devoured the book."
--- Romantic Times Book Reviews, 4 1/2 stars
"Sokoloff successfully melds a classic murder-mystery/whodunit with supernatural occult undertones."
--- Library Journal
"As usual, Sokoloff (The Unseen) does a good job keeping the reader guessing whether a supernatural agency is really at work."
--- Publishers Weekly
---"A wonderfully dark thriller with amazing "Is-it-isn't-it?' suspense all the way to the end. Highly recommended."
--- NY Times bestselling author Lee Child

I'm really new to drupal, however through searching the web and learning bits and pieces, I've managed to build a really nice site with a database of nodes displayed in views etc with loads of what i conceder "cool stuff", and I'm donkey proud of it. However I can't get my head around adding simple text to the main body of pages. Every time I add "basic page" content type, which is supposed to be for static content, or so it says, it is displayed as a selectable content type with an odd "read more" link.
So to be specific, I would like to add text to a page without a browser being able to select the title and seeing the node type (going to a different view", and would like to remove the "read more" link - cos its pointless when all the text is being displayed.
Further to this, how would I say add a paragraph of text to a page, followed by say an image, then maybe a views table?
Sorry to post such simple questions, but I found the answers to much more complicated stuff on the web, this simple stuff eludes me.
Thanks in advance :-)
I would recommend to look
I would recommend to look into Display Suite, which lets you customize the display of nodes in several view modes (teaser, full node, search result, etc..)
with reference to the basic page content type you can:
edit the content type and remove the body field which is set to text area with summary
add a long text area (one without a summary) and readmore won't come into play
http://drupal.org/project/insert_view = allows a view to be set inside a body area
http://drupal.org/project/insert = allows an image to be set inside the body area
The above recommendations assumes that you only want a title and a single text area which contains the components you've mentioned.
Great thankyou
those two modules look like just the ticket, however, when I add "long text" it still displays read more. I've just found this module to give a try: http://drupal.org/project/readmorecontrol
Do you know of any way of making the compulsory "title" field non select able? so people don't click on the title and then see the node view.
when I add "long text" it still displays read more.
you would have to explain a but more about how you've accomplished this as I don't find that to be a possibility under normal circumstances on a default install. Without a summary, I don't see a readmore generated on my sandbox.
you can create a custom tpl.php file for the content type and remove the a tag around the $title variable.

UPDATE: Deadly motorcycle-truck crash
KALKASKA CO. -- The Kalkaska County Sheriff's office is investigating a deadly crash on M-72 and McNaulty Hill Road.
The area was shut down for about an hour while medical crews landed a helicopter nearby.
Kalkaska County Sheriff David Israel says around 9:50 a.m. a truck turning left onto M-72 from Hill Road hit the motorcycle. The motorcycle burst into flames. The driver of the motorcycle, 29-year old CJ Lorenz of Kalkaska, was pinned under the left rear wheel of the truck. He was life-flighted to Munson Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.
The driver of the truck was taken to the hospital by ambulance with non-life threatening injuries and has been released. He told Sheriff Israel he didn't see the motorcycle because the sun was in his eyes. The accident remains under investigation.
