Today I am writing this post from my campsite in the high mountain country of western North Carolina. As I sit here taking in the scenery and feeling the cool spring breeze on my face I am struck by an overwhelming sense of gratitude for the circumstances which have placed me in this very spot at this perfectly lovely moment. Getting here on this very mountaintop hasn't been easy! Haha, I do mean that literally. I am the proud new owner of large towable RV and it has been something of a challenge actually making it out here to the country this week on vacation. Between packing, planning, arranging dog sitters, no Google available for mapping routes and minor vehicle troubles while on the way here, my family and I have had to face and overcome multiple obstacles that threatened to ruin our yearly tradition of spending some quality time with each other over Spring Break.
Thankfully my husband and I tend to be the types of people who hope for the best but plan for the worst when it comes to traveling. I am so grateful that before we even packed out the first bag we sat down and brainstormed about all of the things that could potentially go wrong on our trip. We then took the steps needed to prepare for the unfortunate things that might happen along the way. Tools for repairing my SUV and RV while on the road, enough food & clothing for two weeks ( we were only gone for 1), paid all of our bills for the month so that we did not have to worry about overspending while in town and even taking the time to download maps of western NC to our cell phones since I suspected that I would not have cell service for navigational purposes once we arrived.
The steps that my husband and I took before we even left home turned out to be absolutely invaluable because our preparedness thwarted every single potential disaster and turned them into minor inconveniences at worst.
We replaced the alternator on my Denali in Asheville but it was no big deal because we had the proper tools on hand to make the repair in under 15 mins. ( my husband is something of an engine repair savant ).
As expected we lost cell service ( thank you AT& T) somewhere on the Blue Ridge Parkway but since I had pre - downloaded all of the local maps onto our phones before we left we were still able to navigate all of the unfamiliar roads using the stored data from Google Maps.
When we first arrived at the campsite there wasn't a way for me to do laundry but since we packed enough clothing for two weeks it was not big deal.
The fancy gas grill that mounts to the outside of our new RV wasn't working properly the first few nights so instead we headed into the woods, collected some firewood and roasted hot dogs over an open fire. Honestly, though, that one wasn't really a bad thing because everyone knows that hot dogs are much better roasted over the flame of a campfire anyway, haha!
Thinking about these things has brought one word to my mind.
Being a responsible wife and mother means that it's my duty to consider the possibilities of what may or may not happen and to plan accordingly in a manner which keeps my family safe.
From planning safe routes through mountain passes (while towing a 7600lb RV) to packing enough food and medicine to cover any unexpected delays in our return home it is my job to prepare for the worst while ever the while expecting the best.
As someone who subscribes to the concept of "maximum freedom = maximum responsibility " I try to set an example for others that by living responsibly and planning ahead and owning my troubles) it allows me to enjoy the freedom of less stress when things eventually go wrong. Being able -to- respond in a decisive and correct manner when action needed is paramount when it comes to the care of the people I love the most. I never think of the concept of responsibility as being a burden, rather it is like adding new skills and hardware to my life camera bag. The good news is that even though the bag is heavy with equipment the weight of it actually strengthens my core with every job.
The Oxford dictionary
defines the word "responsibility" in the four ways as follows...
As your wedding photographer, it is my duty to follow the requests of clients in a responsible manner. My clients rely on my experience to lead and direct as a professional photographer to execute the best manner to capture the most beautiful photos that my clients want the most. I am adept at posing my clients in a flattering way for the formal portraits and can find and utilize the very best lighting conditions to ensure that my client's pictures are properly exposed in whatever background our environment offers. I'm always ready to take specific photo requests and suggestions from my clients and honestly relish a challenge to capture some truly special one of a kind images. As a professional photographer, it is my responsibility to always put my client's photo wishes ahead of my own. It is my pleasure to do so!
It is my responsibility to be knowledgeable in using on camera flash and available natural lighting to create only the most beautiful of images.
The buck stops with me. I will always be honest about my technical abilities and limitations as an artist. If I screw something up I will always speak up and find a solution to rectify the situation. Bottom line, if my clients aren't happy, I'm not happy.
As a professional photographer, my clients rely on my technical ability to use my camera equipment properly. It is my responsibility to educate myself in all manners regarding the endeavor of achieving a standard of professionalism in my chosen craft.
I am constantly reading, training and learning more every week about the cameras and software that I employ with every photoshoot. I participate in photo-workshops and take online courses on best practices for taking awesome photos.
I strive to deliver all sorts of creative types of technically challenging shots so that each and every one of my clients receives unique and beautiful images that are on trend and on point with current photography styles.
Yes, sometimes things do go wrong sometimes and it's worth mentioning that when relying on electronic technologies (such as computers & digital cameras) things can break unexpectedly.
Memory cards can be corrupted, camera mirrors can lock up and digital files can fail to load.
As your professional wedding photographer, it is my responsibility to maintain and properly care for my equipment to avoid (whenever possible) problems. This means that I stay up to date with software updates on my Mac's and always use the latest technologies available to me for photo processing.
I rotate my memory cards and send all of my SLR cameras and lenses for yearly service checkups at the Canon Factory service center in VA Beach.
Security is important to me too! During the editing process, I backup all of the digital photo files stored on my hard drive with a service called Carbonite so even if my Mac breaks my client's original RAW photos are safely stored off site.
My client's wedding photos are delivered via a secure online gallery that is double password protected for download security.
Responsibility means that it's up to me to ensure that I can live up to my client's expectations without excuse. This means that I must take action before every event to ensure that I can deliver the image packages that my clients have contracted me for Whether an engagement or wedding day I always carry back- up equipment on every single photoshoot. This means that I will have at least 3 SLR cameras on hand, 3 lenses, 3 off camera flashes and 3 separate memory cards. On top of that, I carry enough flash and camera batteries to provide enough power for twice the amount of time that I'm being paid for.
If for some reason I am unable to shoot on a date that I have been contracted for, a backup photographer will be provided to cover the event or I will provide a 100% refund.
My clients sometimes expect me to know what to do in every situation. While this is technically an impossible standard to achieve, it is my responsibility as a professional photographer to come as close as possible to hit this mark.
I can be relied upon to go out and capture everything with my cameras to the best of my ability without direct supervision from my clients. With many years of photographing weddings under my belt, I fully understand how long things tend to take throughout a typical wedding day. I know when it's appropriate to take my time with certain shots vs. when the speed of capture is an important element.
I don't require a long list of items to be photographed throughout a wedding day because through many years of wedding photography experience I'm familiar with my client's needs.
At the end of the day, I know that my client's trust is something I have had to earn from day one. If for any reason that I or my equipment may fail, my value as a professional photographer rests in my ability to plan for and respond correctly to any difficult or challenging situation, to make things right in the judgment of my clients.
Achieving the skills needed to consistently offer an accurate and prompt Response - Ability (the ability to respond in a fast and precise manner to life challenges is what I train for, delivering exceptional images to my clients on the happiest day of their lives is the direct result of my pursuit.
To those who have trusted my ability to cover your wedding day and for placing your trust in my response-ability to your meet your photography needs, each of you are allowing me to live to my fullest potential as an artist, to enjoy the freedom of being the person I was made to be. You have made me a better version of myself. You've have taught me patience and the value of persistence. These are skills that have brought so many blessings in my personal life, as well. This is the best gift I could possibly receive with benefits passed onto my entire family.
Thank you so much.
-S. Siko

This week I joined in with ITRTs Jamie Mullenaux (@JamieMullenaux) and Jen Hicks (@jenhicks) to provide personalized PD for Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) teachers in our district.
Training was limited to an hour and fifteen minutes, so our challenge was to provide personalized PD in a limited amount of time. We knew there were varying numbers of available hardware in each class (iPads, SMART Boards, and SMART Tables), but we weren't sure who had what or which area they wanted more training. We decided to offer time for conversation, learning, and reflection as shown below:
We offered three stations focused on creative uses for iPads, SMART Boards, and SMART Tables, allowing teachers to choose the training they wanted to receive. We prepared digital guides for each session along with targeted questions to encourage active participation.
Our introductory conversations showed that many were comfortable using basic apps on the iPad, but were looking to learn how to use SMART Boards and SMART Tables. We still offered three stations, but found that providing flexibility for teachers to choose what interested them most made the greatest impact on learning.
As teachers interacted with the SMART Board and SMART Tables, they shared ideas for implementation, including which features they thought would be most appropriate for their PreK students. They also shared suggestions for troubleshooting common issues such as editing templates from the SMART Exchange and moving the SMART Table for naptime.
It was great to have all the ECSE teachers together to share in the learning experience! A special thanks to Solita Wilson for allowing us to use her classroom for training. We learned quite a bit in such a short amount of time!

First Writing EdCamp
Last week I was invited by a fellow ITRT to attend the first ever EdCamp hosted by our district. It was organized by ELA curriculum coordinator, Tami Slater (@tami_slater) in collaboration with ITRTs Casey Nugent (@edtechdonuts) and Heather Causey (@hcausey). Even though the event was geared specifically for high school English teachers, I joined in the fun because I am always looking for ways to improve my own writing as well as strategies to support my beginning writers at the elementary level.
The morning was spent grading essays with the afternoons set up for an open sharing time of various topics. Each "room" was labeled after a famous writer, set up as tables across the cafeteria to allow for convenient movement between sessions.
The morning was spent grading essays with the afternoons set up for an open sharing time of various topics. Each "room" was labeled after a famous writer, set up as tables across the cafeteria to allow for convenient movement between sessions.
Each session included a hyperlinked Google Doc for convenient sharing and note-taking. Teachers chose which session they wanted to attend, carrying laptops with them for each rotation. I definitely was the "odd man out" being an elementary-focused educator, but I enjoyed listening to the teachers share their struggles and successes.
Some great sites that were shared included Moving Writers and Storybird for motivating struggling writers. Other sites such as Canva and Piktochart were discussed for students to use in creating infographics. Grammarly was another hot topic for editing and grammar reteaching. We loved how it not only told us what to correct and how, but it also described in detail why we needed to correct our errors. Talk about empowering! Our only wish is that is synced with Google Docs! (Yes, we know we can copy/paste into the Grammarly website, but an automatic analysis would be such a gift!)
I loved listening to the teachers share their ideas of how to run writing stations in their classrooms- so inspiring! From having students rotate from one station to the next crafting a single story or individual stations to reinforce vocabulary and digital writing, it was clear that our teachers are looking for creative ways to engage our students with writing.
I left this EdCamp excited to share this PD concept with teachers in my building as well as the resources described. My hope is that this EdCamp structure grows to the point where we can have multiple EdCamps across the district focused on meaningful conversations as teachers continue to learn and grow!

Before you start bugging your boss for beefier servers or the latest Solid State Storage (SSDs), gather and analyze performance data with SolarWinds® Database Performance Analyzer (DPA).
Database Performance Analyzer (DPA) helps:
Gathering information, establishing baselines, and maintaining history are all critical to maintaining high database performance.
You need a solution that helps you gather information to:
If you're an IT Professional, you continuously face the challenge of improving database performance. A common solution to resolve performance problems is to procure SSD storage, servers, or CPU. Investing in hardware is a big gamble unless you understand exactly what the bottleneck is—and if the slowdown is even hardware related. Identify your problem first with Database Performance Analyzer.
Why hardware scaling doesn't always work:
"Literally, within a week of installing DPA we solved 80 of the performance issues. It just gave us the visibility that we were missing."
"My life is considerably easier because of DPA. I highly recommend it for anybody. It is clearly the best tool out there."
"Often, the root cause of poor performance issues is that the code for the application isn't properly leveraging the hardware resources. In one case on which I consulted, the addition of indexes in SQL server and a change in transaction isolation level resulted in such significant performance improvements that anticipated daily outages ceased and the tradition of "everyone on call for the holidays" was removed."
"The nice thing about DPA is it really allows us to discern where the real issue really is occurring."

Liverpool started the game very strong and at a very high tempo. And it wasn't long before they turned the early pressure was converted into a goal, infact it was only 3 minutes into the game when Arsenal old boy Pennant combined very well with Arbeloa who sent a low cross to Crouch who beat Toure to the near post to guide the ball past Jens Lehmann.
1-0 to Liverpool, Not the best of starts.
Arsenal slowly started to get back into the match and Baptista had our best chance of the game but surprise surprise his touch let him down.
On 26 minutes Peter Crouch had a shot wide from an angle.
Arsenal played pretty well after the first 5 minutes but could not quite find enough quality in the final third. Having Clichy and Eboue back in the side added width and more attacking options.
On 31 a wonderful Arsenal move ended with Baptista missing the target after an Adebayor square pass. Our best chance of the game. This is where we miss the likes of Henry and Van Persie who are competent finishers unlike the rest of our squad.
So it could have quite easily been 1-1 but as it is in football 2 minutes later the ball is in our net for 2-0 to Liverpool thanks to a Peter Crouch leap and header past Lehmann.
We have had far worse halves than this one but we were on the wrong end of a losing score line. Pretty much the story of our season so far.
The second half started much as the first did. Liverpool started the quicker, faster and hungrier. I wanted to see Rosicky replace Denilson and play Diaby alongside Cesc and play with more purpose.
Steven Gerrard had a left foot shot saved by Lehmann when maybe he could have done better and then 30 seconds later Adebayor hit the post with a snap shot from outside the box.
On the hour mark it was 3-0. A freekick by Aurelio was flicked in by Agger
Adebayor hit the woodwork once again after a powering header which was superbly tipped onto the post by Reina. It just didn't look like it would go in for us today.
Ljungberg replaced Baptista who once again played like a phat stinking pooh and Rosicky replaced Diaby probably because of his midweek match for France.
on 74 William Gallas turned in a Jamie Carragher flick towards his own goal from a corner for 3-1. Another Arsenal goal would make things rather interesting.
But on 81 minutes the game was well and truly over when Peter Crouch pulled down a throw and after some neat footwork he smashed a left foot shot past Jens for 4-1.
A bloody Peter Crouch hatrick!! apart from our strikers this was practically our strongest side. I do believe in our players and I do think they will be a very good side but this was not good enough. We played good football in spells but there just wasn't enough steel, enough organisation, enough commitment.
Eboue was replaced by Hoyte which seems to be some sort of injury. We are going to have to improve our form if we are to stay in 3rd.

Founded in 2007 the Circle City Curling Club is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion and education of the sport of curling in Indianapolis.The club offered clinics and open curling sessions at the Indiana World Skating Academy during it's first year and half. The 2008 season was spent at Ellenberger Park (5301 E St. Clair St. Indianapolis, IN 46219). In 2009 & 2010, we returned to IWSA for two more great years on the ice. The Circle City Curling Club called the Fishers Forum home from 2011 to 2014. The Arctic Zone in Westfield was our home for the 2015/16 season. In 2017/18 we are excited to see the club curling, offering clinics, and having FUN for our second straight year at the Indiana State Fairgrounds Youth Ice Hockey Arena in Indianapolis.

Steroidal compounds enhance stamina, strength, weight and size of muscles and may improve the energy levels during physical training. Oral and injectable steroids posses the ability to increase athletic performance, have a positive effect on red blood cells production and bones density. The steroids are used in accordance with requirement and needs of any athlete individually. There are special compounds which are not suitable for women and a series of anti-estrogen products which main role is to counter the eventual side effects of steroids use and to restore natural testosterone levels of the human body.

The best way to store your Bitcoins is a wallet on your computer or mobile phone as you'll get a full control over your Bitcoins. A noticeable example of a standalone (desktop) clients is Electrum . Just remember, there are two types of desktop clients, with full validation and simplified one. Full validation requires to download all the "block chain" on your computer, which is very large database (60 GB and growing every 10 minutes) that contains all the transactions ever made using Bitcoin. Full validation in theory provides an extra layer of security and allow merchants to avoid "double spends". As a normal user, simplified validation works just fine and there is no reason to maintain a complete copy of all ever maid transactions. You are only interested in a small part of the block chain that contains your transactions and it is about 25-30 MB. Online wallets a very popular nowadays as they are easy and quite fast to set-up, don't require any free space on your HDD and are just convenient, especially when we are talking about relatively small transactions or occasional ones . when you want to transfer you bitcoins from a Bitcoin Exchange to your personal wallet.

I lost an enormous amount of respect for VICE after that Shkreli interview... just because someone is an "ass clown" does not mean he isn't HIGHLY intelligent and manipulative.
That interviewer was WAY out of her league.
Does anyone have the back story to what he originally did? I understand the price increase, but I read somewhere and I can't recall where, that what he was doing was screwing over the government/big pharma rather than the patients themselves.

Update 2008: Pratt School has no pop or candy machines in the cafeteria any more. I do not think I had any effect at all. The control of the school grounds passed from community education to the elementary school side of the school district management and the elementary management did things the way they do. There are still plenty of crap candy, juice and soda machines in other levels of the schools and the breakfast program of sugar crap and manufactured garbage is just as bad. Chocolate milk in the schools? Just give them hard street drugs and pharmaceuticals, the lifetime survival rate is probably better than diabetes.
2006: What school district has candy and pop machines in its elementary school cafeterias? MINNEAPOLIS SCHOOL DISTRICT 1, in Pratt Elementary School. Why? For the money of course.
Tom Madden was a good candidate, answered my email, followed up on the issue, and talks like a real person. Doug Mann answered my questions, he seems to be responsive.
Pam Costain and Theartrice (T.) Williams never answered in any way about this issue, I do not recommend these two people for any office, much less School Board.
Other school issues: Public school land to private developers Public school problems and fixes
Many studies show that candy, soda pop and juice drinks in schools create obese diabetic people. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends a ban on soda pop in schools. The Minnesota Medical Association announced in August 2006 that they want WIC (Women Infant Child) food programs to drop juice and instead include fresh fruits and vegetables. The American Dental Association has taken a stand against vending machine contracts in schools. Even the American Beverage Group recommends against soda pop in schools. But MONEY RULES OVER HEALTH IN MINNEAPOLIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Minneapolis Public Schools Policy 3261 states: "Middle and Elementary school sites are authorized to have vending machines that provide an assortment of beverages for students including mild, flavored mild, fruit juices, vegetable juices and bottled water but shall not provide soda pop." Candy or other food is not authorized in the policy. Yet Pratt School sells candy and soda pop in the cafeteria in violation of the aims of the Minneapolis School Board Policy 3261. Clearly the policy is to control candy and soda access to very young students. BUT OVERIDING THE POLICY IS MONEY GRUBBING BEHAVIOR THAT DOES NOT CONSIDER HARM TO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILDREN.
http://www.fns.usda.gov/cnd/Governance/regulations/210_2006.pdf Note especially sections 210.11, 210.12: From 210.11: "...RULES OR REGULATIONS SHALL PROHIBIT THE SALE of foods of minimal nutritional value, as listed in appendix B of this part, in the food service areas during the lunch periods." and "...ALL INCOME FROM THE SALE OF SUCH FOODS ACCRUES TO THE BENEFIT OF THE NONPROFIT SCHOOL FOOD SERVICE OR THE SCHOOL or student organizations approved by the school." Also in 210.12: "School food authorities are encouraged to use the school food service program to TEACH STUDENTS ABOUT GOOD NUTRITION PRACTICES and to involve the school faculty and the general community in activities to enhance the Program."
What happened to the money from our kids buying soda and candy? Did it go to the elementary school, food service or a school organization? No it appears it went to the community education program. THEY TAKE MONEY FROM OUR CHILDREN AND HARM THEIR HEALTH to support other programs. According to the feds the past candy/pop money must go to the Pratt elementary school or food service, not the community education education program as I believe is occurring. The funds in question are estimated between $30,000 and $70,000 over 6 years and there must be an accounting of the money by MN Department of Education rules: 3545.0900 FUND ACCOUNTING: "Subp. 8. Special fund uses and transfer limitations. All funds other than the general fund are special purpose funds in which expenditures may only be made for the special purposes of the fund. Transfers of money from special purpose funds to other funds are not permitted unless authorized by law."
The cynicism of the school board is astounding, in a 2005 letter from Joe Erickson, President of the Minneapolis School Board I get this response: "Dear Mr. Hauser: While I don't recall the specifics of the policy regarding such machines, I would point out that you're directing your demand to the wrong folks." He then wishes me luck. Luck to him, too. The the same type of "luck" he is giving the elementary children, a stacked deck for obesity and diabetes. The response of my public representative who is responsible for the schools to tell me I am asking the "wrong folks", the school board, to enforce policy is unbelievable, the school board approves all vending machine contracts, they have the responsibility. After the school administration ignores me and I petition the public representative I get the "Good luck" response. Good luck? Joseph Erickson's powerless wimp act is phony.
I have sent letters to school board candidates, replies to be published.

The Hangover sequel should be a source of good drunken-themed fun, even if they didn't take our suggestion to call it The Aspirin. But any sci-fi fan knows you can get your full dose of stumbling, hilariously inebriated characters from almost any classic science fiction movie or TV show.
Please note that we're not simply talking about iconic scenes that take place in bars. Rather, we are focusing on those extra-funny clips with characters who are three-sheets-to-the-wind, "Dude, where'd we park the Millennium Falcon?" hammered.
Here are 18 of our favorites.
Scotty Goes on a Bender With an Alien
Star Trek was on the forefront of shows with storylines that promoted racial harmony. Which is why it was so weird when they would lose their marbles and do something blatantly offensive. In this scene, the Scottish guy named "Scotty" shows how good he is at drinking. Thankfully, they didn't go full-tilt and have his drink of choice be "scotch." Our species is truly number one at chugging liquor. Take that, superior alien brains!
Peter Lorre Drinks-Off Against Vincent Price
Here, two giants of the screen show us exactly how to start the party at a wine-tasting contest. This yet again reminds us that a good screenwriter is able to scare the audience using only the characters' freaky mustaches.
Indiana Jones' Girl Wins Drinking Contest
Marion uses her drinking superpower several times in this film. Here, she wins what has to be the most boring sporting event of all time: watching two people take shots until one passes out. It's cool how this is portrayed as classy and sexy, when in fact a real woman who can take that many shots is just really scary.
Chuggin' Moonshine on the Red Dwarf
This hilarious scene features Rimmer and Lister discovering two bottles of illegal hooch right before inspection. They decide the best way to dispose of it is to pound it. We're not sure where they planned to hide the bottles (nor would we care to imagine).
All Work and No Play Makes Jack a Dull Boy
A ghost rises up, and all Jack can think to request from him is a bottle of bourbon. We guess it takes a simple man to live in a secluded hotel all winter without going crazy. Oh, wait.
Charlie and Hurley Try to Get Desmond Blackout Drunk on Lost
Oh, Scottish television characters: the next plot point is only one drink away. At 6:30, Charlie and Hurley want to find out why Desmond Hume can see the future. They give him lots of alcohol, which triggers a flashback for the viewers, which still doesn't really explain the clairvoyance. But, since it's Lost, we sure have a fun time confusing ourselves into madness.
Data Shows up to Work Plastered
Since Data had so much trouble understanding human nature and emotion, we were always waiting for an episode where he gets messed up. But we figured he'd probably get high and become one with humanity, or whatever. Instead he just gets wasted and wallows in the self-pity of not being mortal.
Doctor Who Makes a Freaky Scene
To be honest, to put up with the insane stuff that goes down around the Doctor requires a bit of a skewed mind. Here, the Doctor crashes into what appears to be a cross between 1800s British Parliament and the film Saw. Luckily, he's drunk, so everything makes sense to him (including the interior dimensions of the TARDIS, probably).
Drunk Nerd at the Kandy Bar
A great formula for teen film scenes in the 1980s was taking Anthony Michael Hall and getting him messed up. Anthony Michael Hall delighted fans by toking or drinking and then talking in a weird Kermit the Frog voice. Ah, the 1980s, when we all thought teen drug use was trivially hilarious.
Shaun of the Dead Zombie Karaoke
When you get drunk, you dull your senses. This can prevent you from noticing important things, such as the fact that killer dead bodies are roaming the town. This clip proves that, with hooch, mortal enemies like zombies and men can become singing buddies.
Gimli Passes Out Drunk
In this extended scene from the Return of the King, Gimli tries to prove that dwarves are the biggest functioning alcoholics in Middle-earth. However, this contest seems unfair, since Gimli's beard can hold gallons of liquor.
Futurama Drunk Dial
We could show you one of the dozens of clips of boozing 'bot Bender getting silly. However, instead we chose to show this clip from "Bender's Big Score," where he actually isn't the drunkest person in the scene, for once.
Buffy Want Beer!
Buffy has a hard life. First, there's that whole "high school" thing. Also, we hear she has to deal with vampires sometimes. To make things worse, she can't even relax with a cold one without turning into a violent Neanderthal. Honestly, we get it, we don't need Cave Buffy to beat us over the head with the metaphor like she's clubbing a mate.
Zefram and Deanna Get Tanked
One of the more memorable scenes in First Contact was this drunken bar exchange. As with all Star Trek drunk scenes, they have to insert a straight man: someone who responds to all this madness by pursing their lips and nagging everyone that they've just got to save the universe, or whatever.
Jin and Sawyer Get Wasted With Roger's Corpse
Lost was expert at making viewers feel bad for enjoying touching scenes. Here, for example, the men take a beer break despite living on an island full of scary dead stuff. Even though there's a dead body next to the beer, it's still lighthearted fun (for Lost, at least). Until we later learn that the skeleton next to the beer was a nasty, beer-swilling alcoholic who was murdered by his abused son. Great job making us feel bad for laughing, yet again, Lost. Zing.
Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster
It's the greatest drink in the universe, the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy wouldn't lie. Seriously, why mess around with all that annoying drinking, when you can just skip straight to the good part: passing out and waking up with a headache.
Kyle XY Pissed
Everyone's favorite pseudo-teen jumps on the bar and announces he is the result of a science experiment. The bar patrons seem nonplussed by this needless exposition. How come when the characters on Lost get drunk, they never jump up and share critical information with the rest of the group?
Bad Santa
There's actually a plot to this Twilight Zone episode, "The Night of the Meek." But frankly, there doesn't have to be a plot: Just watching alcoholic Santa Claus trying to steal is enough to creep us out.
It's funny to note the mixed messages these clips send to young viewers about alcohol. On the one hand, many of these scenes portray booze as a detrimental obstacle to everyday success. On the other hand, people who have the ability to consume a truckload of booze seem to be portrayed as heroes in many sci-fi storylines. So we guess the moral is that young people shouldn't drink, unless they plan to make drinking their full-time hobby because they spend their whole lives on a boring spaceship.

But before you fill out those brackets, USA Today has a few teams you should know about that could put a serious wrench in your picks.
Alec English, shown here in his semifinal match against Cranberry's Josh Hancock, was one of five Wolves to earn a trip to the regional tournament by placing in the top four at the D9 meet over the weekend. English downed Hancock, the second seed at 145 pounds, 8-4, to earn a spot in the finals.
The Kane girls basketball team used a stingy defense and a strong inside game to hand the Cranberry Lady Berries a 38-27 defeat in Friday night's District 9 Class AA semifinal game at Clarion University.
The Kane boys' basketball team jumped out to an early lead on Wednesday night in the Wolves' Den and cruised to a 55-26 win over Smethport in a late-season non-league game. Senior Andrew Bucheit, pictured here going in for a lay-up, led the Wolves with 15 points.
Chad Greville calls a timeout before a Brockway player could try to tie up the ball in the second half of Tuesday night's game in the Wolves Den. Greville and his teammates improved to 14-5 on the season with a hard-fought 42-35 win over the Rovers.

Boca Raton Real Estate Lawyer
Real estate transactions should never be entered into without a thorough understanding of the deal you are making—whether you're buying your first home or your hundredth investment property. For answers to your specific real estate questions, please contact Protect My Assets Law Group and schedule a free initial consultation with our Boca Raton real estate lawyers.
Florida Real Estate FAQs
What is a "joint tenancy with right of survivorship?"
Many clients ask if they can avoid probate by holding real estate as joint tenants. The answer is yes, but it is not without pitfalls. Under joint tenancy, two or more people may hold property with proportionate but different amounts of interest, and the last survivor takes the entire property. The "automatic transfer," as opposed to deeding through a will, is what skips probate. However, people do not always pass away in the order we presume, which can cause tax problems and unanticipated disputes among family members. Our real estate attorneys can help ensure you make the appropriate choice when determining how to hold title to your real estate assets.
Why should I hire a real estate attorney for a closing when both parties are represented by real estate agents, and we are using a title company?
Buying or selling a home is often the biggest financial transaction in a person's life. With so much money involved and so many potential risks, why would you not consult with a real estate attorney before signing on the dotted line? While it is true that a real estate agent generally prepares the contract, and a title company can act as closing agent, an attorney is the only party who may advocate a position and give his or her client advice. Attorneys have the experience to know what issues can arise during a real estate transaction, and can provide guidance on titling property, zoning, financing, inspections, taxes, and other contract contingencies. Having a lawyer on your side, looking out for you and only you, can ensure your transaction goes as smoothly as possible, all while protecting your legal rights.
What is a short sale?
A short sale occurs when a seller's mortgage balance is greater than the market value of the property being sold. The sale may involve an underwater home, an apartment building, or even vacant land. Generally, banks agree to grant a short sale when they will make more money through a short sale than a foreclosure. It's important to remember, however, that while a short sale will relieve you of a significant financial burden—your mortgage—it can negatively affect your credit. Thus, it's important to weigh all your options if you are considering a short sale or other means of unloading devalued real estate.
What is a deed in lieu of foreclosure?
Another option if you're underwater on your mortgage is a deed in lieu of foreclosure. This is where you give your lender the deed to your property voluntarily in exchange for your loan being canceled. While a deed in lieu of foreclosure will avoid foreclosure (and terminate any pending foreclosure), there's no guarantee your lender will waive any deficiency balance once they sell the property. Thus, it's important to work with a real estate lawyer experienced in foreclosure negotiations to make sure you understand the implications and potential ramifications of agreeing to a deed in lieu.

Coming to the cage, it's tough to miss Dean Bo Moskowitz. Loud "Dean Bo" chants from a crowd of supporters accompany his introduction. Those supporters also sport shirts with his name emblazoned across the chest.
Most fighters are introduced with metal, rap, or some variety of bass-heavy, blood-boiling music. But Dean Bo Moskowitz isn't most fighters.
In past U of MMA shows, the twenty year-old has preferred "The Harlem Shake" or "Havah Nagilah," appropriate accompaniments for a fighter wearing both the Israeli and American flags on his back.
And it's in this moment that you realize why the first-generation Israeli-American receives such a rousing ovation from the crowd.
"Jews like to stay together," Moskowitz says. "I have a great support system. My family supports me through my training. If you have a tough fight, win or lose, they'll always be there for you. It's a great feeling. They can't help you inside the ring, but I feel like all of the support they give me outside of the ring gives me the strength to go in there and do a good job."
When the soft-spoken Moskowitz says this, it's hard not to notice the genuine emotion behind his words. Don't let the spectacle of his cage entrances fool you. Moskowitz views his fights as far more than an opportunity to advance his brand.
"I love the challenge," Moskowitz says. "Every time before I get in there, I shed a few tears. I don't know if it's happiness, sadness or adrenaline, but I just kind of close my eyes before they call my name in the back room. And then I hear my music, zone out for a second, and think to myself 'I wouldn't want to be anywhere else in the world right now.'"
When the doors close and it's just Moskowitz with his opponent and the referee, the performance that ensues is even more entertaining than the one preceding it.
Moskowitz's style is explosive, decisive, and ruthless, the impressive product of a life dedicated to martial arts.
"I'm a different person completely," Moskowitz said. "When it's time to fight, it's do or die for me. It's kill or be killed. If you don't have that mindset, you should quit fighting. I'm not there to get touched in the face, even one time. I'm there to hit and not get hit."
Apart from his raw athletic talent, Moskowitz owes his fighting prowess to sixteen years of martial arts experience. At age four, his father, Guy Moskowitz, introduced him to karate and encouraged him to dedicate himself to the martial path.
"He always thought martial arts would be good for building respect and character," the younger Moskowitz said. "He doesn't let me back off. If I'm not training properly he'll get on me about it. There's a lot of love and a lot of tough love and I'm really thankful for that."
Nearly two years into his competitive career, the proof is in the pudding: Moskowitz's (3-2) amateur record isn't sparkling, but as is often the case, the statistics don't tell the tale of the tape.
In a sense, Moskowitz's couldn't have hoped for a better debut at the U of MMA's 'Champions of Tomorrow' showcase. In the opening seconds of his career, his opponent, Darien Matthews, charged the young fighter with a head of steam.
Five seconds later, Matthews was floored with a devastating left hook. Locked-into this kill-or-be-killed mentality, Moskowitz followed Matthews to the floor, intending to decisively finish his first fight.
But in the aftermath, Moskowitz's victory was ruled a disqualification, the punishment for continuing to attack after the referee declared a knockout.
"When it happened I almost started to cry because so much time was put into it and it was all over in five seconds," Moskowitz said. "It was such a roller-coaster. Win, lose, disqualified, or not, I didn't want to be viewed as a bad guy, a bad competitor, so right away I apologized to the referee and I apologized to my opponent."
"I viewed that fight more as an experience than as a fight. I couldn't really learn from the fight because it was over in five seconds. In the future, I'm going to be aware of not only the fight, but of the referee's commands."
In the ensuing months, Moskowitz amped the intensity of his training and overcame this early setback to the tune of two more dominant finishes. The first came against Ian 'The Korean' Park at the U of MMA's 'Second to None' in October of 2012. In this, his second career fight, Moskowitz showed the ability to dominate on his feet and on the ground, defeating Park with a decisive rear-naked choke in round one.
Moskowitz followed up this performance with yet another victory at the U of MMA's inaugural 'Fight Night,' earning a winning record with another ruthless chokehold. Though this was his first contest to reach the second round, Moskowitz bullied Louie Leyva throughout round one, leaving many to wonder if he could be touched as an amateur.
For Moskowitz, the first bump in the road came in the form of Pimpit Fight Academy's Jarrett Conner. The 5'8, 170-pound Conner presented a rare challenge for Moskowitz, who had yet to face someone with Conner's blend of explosive athleticism and wrestling prowess.
The bout was much-anticipated, especially for the 21-year-old Conner, who watched Moskowitz's victory over Leyva and saw an opportunity to challenge a rising star.
"I was here March 3rd to watch my boy Chris Reyes lay it down, and then I saw this guy Dean Bo," Conner said. "He came in and he was a beast and in my head I was like, 'I want to fight this guy.'…I want to fight the best and Dean Bo is the best."
During the build-up to their fight, there was palpable tension between Moskowitz and Conner. Even though both were competing for the vacant welterweight championship, the atmosphere of Club Nokia placed Conner in a de facto role as challenger. When the relatively unknown Conner took to the cage, it was obvious that Moskowitz had the crowd on his side.
"No words were exchanged between me and Jarrett before the fight," Moskowitz said. But during the weigh-ins I went to face off with him and he didn't look me in the eyes. I like to look my opponent in the eyes during weigh-ins and that threw me off a little bit. That definitely sparked something in my mind."
With the usual chants of "Dean Bo" raining from the crowd, referee Mike Bell had Conner and Moskowitz meet in the middle of the arena. The fighters locked eyes but refused to touch gloves.
And with that, a battle that ranks among the most thrilling in U of MMA history commenced. The two talented young fighters went the distance, exchanging blows and position from start to finish. But in the end, a series of Herculean takedowns earned Conner a unanimous decision and the University of MMA Welterweight Championship.
"I wanted to knock him out really badly, and I think I was a little bit too focused on getting that knockout. I feel like maybe if I were a little bit more relaxed and didn't bring all of that tension in there that something different would have happened."
But when Conner's hand was raised, the pre-fight tension evaporated and the two embraced, basking in the afterglow of their performance.
"There was a little bit of disappointment on my part because I knew I could have done better," Moskowitz said. "But as soon as it was over, we just looked at each other like we were best friends, like we were friends for years. That's what's beautiful about fighting. If you really have a tough fight with somebody, it's almost like you sit down and have a conversation and tell each other your life story."
Time will tell if this battle was an early glimpse of two champions of tomorrow. But currently, Moskowitz's loss to Conner is the only true blemish on either's amateur record. Though both are expected to fight at 'Fight Night 5' on February 9th, the show will not feature a rematch of Moskowitz and Conner.
"I needed that. I loved that fight," Moskowitz said. "I know what I need to work on now. As much as it sucked to lose, I was really happy. He's such a humble guy, a great guy. I'd love to do that fight again."
Given the early success they've enjoyed as amateurs, it's entirely likely that a Conner and Moskowitz rematch will be seen on the professional circuit. According to Sensei Cecil Peoples, who instructs Moskowitz at House of Champions, it's only a matter of time before makes a major splash.
"I have no doubt that Dean is going to become a UFC fighter," Peoples said. "I think he has the potential to be another George St-Pierre."
The UFC is the ultimate goal for Moskowitz, whose Facebook fan page is even entitled "UFC of Dean Bo." Moskowitz aims to turn professional around his twenty-first birthday in July, taking four more amateur contests his professional debut. And while the temptation exists to throw patience to the wayside, the twenty-year old fighter wants to ensure he's truly prepared when the time comes.
"I want to know that when I'm there, it's my time and I'm ready to go," Moskowitz said. "And I'll have no excuses as to why I couldn't do it or why I didn't make it. I want to be fully prepared so I'll have a clean conscience knowing that I did my best, that I didn't jump into anything prematurely."
Moskowitz's approach demonstrates a maturity beyond his years, opting to evolve his game naturally and avoid the burnout that plagues many young fighters. Moskowitz's participation in 'Fight Night 5' has yet to be confirmed, but U of MMA fans can hope for another opportunity to witness this evolution, resuming the chants that have become a fixture at Club Nokia.

So if you've come here from my Twitter account, and you've been following me there long enough, you'll remember a few weeks ago, I tweeted about my house mouse. I'll give the back story…in my kitchen there is a utility closet, built into a wall. I used to keep my cat's food in there, until suspicious holes started forming in the bag. I had mouse suspicions, but nothing confirmed until I actually saw the mouse… I explained to this mouse that as long as he stayed in the walls of my suite, I would be okay. I'm torn on this issue. On one hand, I completely understand. It's freezing cold outside. You're a mouse. You go to warmth. Unfortunately, there are these big giants who also appreciate the warmth and don't appreciate sharing it with little grey rodents. And on the other hand, there's an incredibly large ick-factor at play here. Now I own two brutal ruthless pampered housecats, so I at least have some pest protection there. But I can't seem to bring myself to get traps as they're only following nature.
That is, until yesterday's little discovery.
The pact was broken. The mice have gained new territory. I made popcorn in my air popper, and if you own one, you'll understand when I say that some popcorn got on the floor behind the portable dishwasher. Because when I say "got on the floor" I mean, exploded in a flurry of flying kernels that usually makes me duck and cover. Yesterday morning, I noticed the floor popcorn had been pushed out from behind the dishwasher. Naturally, I placed the blame on my cats, known to be idiosyncratic freaks. But when I moved the dishwasher to clean up the popcorn, there was mouse poop galore, to the point where I actually just stood there in creeped-out shock and awe. (I committed a major blogging error by not taking pictures of this to share the horror)
So after some major vacuuming, I moved the dishwasher further away from the wall. I figure I'll use intimidation tactics to get rid of the mice. The way I see it, I'm not quite heartless enough to kill the mice, not quite willing to catch-and-release. I'm just gonna let nature take care of this situation.
My ruthless brutal mouse assassins, you know, taking a break from all that killing…

We had this great BBQ place called Shyler's. I loved their BBQ, but even more was the onion straw appetizers they had. It was a big basket of super thin sliced, lightly battered, salty onions.
Sadly, Shyler's closed some years ago, and I am giving up hope that it will reopen. I had tried before to make the onion straws and have figured out a very easy and delicious way to make them.
Onion Straws
Yellow Onion
Vegetable Oil
I used yellow onions for my straws. I like yellow for those, and white for soups and baked beans. The onions need to be sliced very thin and uniform. A mandolin cutter worked great for this. I cut half of my onion.
In a bowl mix a cup of flour (give or take depending how many you are making) and add salt and pepper to season. I don't measure this, but I am pretty heavy handed with my pepper.
If you don't have a fryer use a pot and vegetable oil on the stove. I used a smaller 3-4 quart pot and filled it less than halfway with oil. Be sure to leave room so you don't have any oil go over the top of you pot. Heat oil on medium.
While the oil is heating up I put some onions in the flour. With a pot you will make it bit by bit. Get your onions coated, shake off excess, then put in hot oil. Stir them a little with a spoon, and when they are floating and a nice golden color remove with a slotted spoon.
Place cooked onion straws on a paper towel lined plate and season.
If you want to reuse your oil. When it is oil just strain it through a metal strainer into a plastic container and refrigerate. I am not sure how long the oil will keep refrigerated. I usually smell it before I use it to see if it smell old or spoiled.

Truman Capote, who became famous when his 1966 book In Cold Blood was published and claimed that his book was "immaculate factual," was lying.
New information has been revealed in Kansas Bureau of Investigation documents that were kept by a KBI agent, Harold Nye, who died in 2003. Nye's son Ron wants to publish or sell them, but there are those who feel the surviving family members of the Clutter family, whose father, daughter, son and daughter were brutally murdered in the events Capote described, should not be forced to suffer any more.
Capote's book was hailed as innovative for being the first "non-fiction novel," but it wasn't all fact, much as Capote insisted. Not only did Capote fudge the facts in order to make detective Alvin Dewey Jr. the hero, Capote also made Columbia Pictures give Dewey's wife a job as a consultant when the film of his book was made.
Dewey cooperated with Capote beyond the letter of the law. He let Capote have access to the murdered 16-year-old daughter Nancy's diary, which logged her thoughts only moments before the killers struck. He pressured villagers who were normally reticent to speak to grant Capote interviews. He later gave Capote an excess of time interviewing the killers. Because Capote was a New Yorker, Dewey helped Capote get a Kansas driving license.
Capote, in return, played up Dewey and the KBI. Unlike actual events, when 19 days passed before an informant tipped the police off about the killers and it was another five days before a number of agents descended on the farmhouse where one of the killers lived with his parents, Capote wrote that once the informant revealed the information an agent was dispatched immediately. And when the informant did reveal who one of the killers was, Duane West, 81, who was the prosecutor in the case, quoted Dewey this way: "Dewey said it wasn't them. Dewey was convinced it was somebody local who had a grudge against Herb Clutter."
Capote never mentioned that. He also never mentioned the correspondence between him and Dewey, including letters like these:
Capote: "Alvin, something VERY important! Nancy's diary had entries for the last four years. I need the entries for Sat. Nov 14th in 1958, 1957, 1956. Urgent!"
Two weeks later: "Dearhearts…Bless you for sending the diary entries."
Capote also never mentioned going behind West's back and asking Dewey to cajole the assistant prosecutor, Logan Green, into talking. One letter to Dewey included, "Dear Foxy: Bless you for your help with Logan Green; the result was excellent."
Capote also used Dewey into persuading Nancy Clutter's boyfriend 17-year-old Bobby Rupp to talk. Rupp has said of Dewey's role, "I only did it because Al Dewey advised me to," he said.
Dewey denied that he had shown Capote any special treatment; he said in 1987, "I never treated Truman any differently than I did any of the other news media. As far as showing him any favoritism or giving him any information, absolutely not. He went out on his own and dug it up."
Harper Lee, Capote's close friend, assistant and author of To Kill A Mockingbird, offered no comment on the evidence that in 1960 Dewey gave her and Capote exclusive access to the Clutter files for a week and after the murders, gave private interviews with the killers even though he told other reporters no interviews would be forthcoming.
Dewey once said that the portrayals of characters in the book were dependent on whether Capote liked them, adding, "I was the luckiest." West, conversely, who loathed the villagers' awe of Capote, treated Capote the same as every other reporter. Capote, in turn, was contemptuous of West, even going so far as to reverse the actual roles and make Logan Green West's superior.

Lakers storm away to a win
Nagambie has put Avenel to the sword in a stunning 32-goal turnaround from their round one match.
When the sides met in the opening game of the season, Avenel was a runaway winner by 18 goals — albeit against an undermanned Lakers side.
In Saturday's return bout it was the opposite story, with the Lakers taking advantage of the Swans' extensive injury list to storm away to a 38-24 win.
''Given that we lost by 18 goals in round one, we set the target to improve on that this week. Winning wasn't a priority for us,'' Nagambie coach Abby Misiti said.
''It was great to turn that scoreline around, but we're fully aware they were undermanned, so we won't get ahead of ourselves knowing they have players to come back in.''
It was a low-scoring affair, with turnovers aplenty throughout the match.
Nagambie held a slim fourgoal lead by quarter time, but had blown that margin out considerably by half-time, at which point the game was more or less over.
The Lakers restricted Avenel to just seven goals in the opening two terms, and held a commanding 11-goal lead by the main break.
''That tells the story right there,'' Avenel stand-in coach Laura Mundy said.
''Seven goals in a half of netball just isn't good enough. We need to be more competitive than that.''
In the absence of regular defender Danika Worthington, Vikki Bester pulled on the dress for the Lakers and was instrumental in restricting the Swans to the single-figure opening-half score.
The Swans clearly struggled for any ascendancy in attack, with key goalers Kate Bishop and Kathryn Hard both sidelined by injury.
Goal-attack Tegan Sidebottom was left to do the bulk of the work in goals, assisted by parttime goalers Naomi Slade and Jess Hogan, who both stepped up to the plate in the ring at various points of the match.
Hogan, the Swans' regular wing-attack, provided height and a great feeding option for Sidebottom in the ring, and proved to be quite the headache for Nagambie's defence.
''Jess has got that wing-attack position down pat now, and she knows the movement in the ring and knows where to feed, so that probably helped her play that feeding role for Tegan,'' Mundy said.
Up the other end, Sharni Lloyd was at her vintage best for the Lakers, working herself well around the ring and shooting with precision for the entire match.
''Sharni really commanded the ball and played one of her best games for the year,'' Misiti said.
''Her and Bianca (Willis) are really starting to form a beautiful combination in goals and they seem to be getting better each week.''
The second half was far more even between the sides, with Avenel even managing to outscore its opposition in the final stanza — something Mundy was particularly impressed with.
''We might have lost, but we walked away really positive, especially with the girls winning the last quarter,'' Mundy said.
''We went in and stuck with them. We knew we couldn't win the game by that stage, so that was a smaller win for us.''
The final-quarter fade out from the Lakers didn't go unnoticed by Misiti, who said it was definitely something her side needed to address coming in to the pointy end of the season.
''We faded out a bit, which is something we've been doing a bit and something we need to probably work on coming in to finals,'' she said.

Two Tasmanian recreational boaters have been fined for discharging diesel and liquid waste from their vessels in separate incidents at Kings Pier Marina in Hobart.
TasPorts reported both incidents to the Environment Protection Authority (EPA), which undertook the investigations and successfully charged both offenders under Tasmania's environmental legislation.
One boat owner discharged approximately 20 litres of diesel whilst conducting maintenance on his vessel, and the other activated a bilge pump accidently, resulting in the discharge of waste from the vessel's bilge.
TasPorts and the EPA wish to remind boat owners of their responsibility to protect the marine environment ahead of this summer season. EPA Director, Wes Ford said there was concern about the high incidence of hydrocarbon discharges in and around the marina.
"We'd like boaters to take greater care – not to pollute – and to report pollution incidents immediately so as to minimize the environmental impact," said Mr Ford.
"In both of the recent cases, the pollution went unnoticed by the vessel owners at the time of the offence," he said.
"Thankfully the incidents were captured by TasPorts' security, resulting in an immediate response and report to the EPA," said Mr Ford.
