1. Thus
can my love excuse the slow offence
A sequel to the previous sonnet, continuing the story of the lover's journey, and anticipating his eventual return to his beloved, when, as he foresees it, in his eagerness he will outrun even the fastest horse. On first impressions this sonnet seems to describe the return journey, but in fact it only speculates on what that journey might be, while in reality the speaker is still probably travelling away from the youth.
The poem is a remarkable tour-de-force of motion, with words of swiftness and slowness tumbling over each other. Almost every line contains some reference to the rapidity of desire or the dulling drag of reality.
Thus one finds slow;
dull; speed; haste; posting;
excuse; swift extremity; slow; spur; mounted on the wind; winged speed,
no motion; keep pace; desire; dull flesh; fiery race; excuse; going,
slow; run; give leave, go.
There are considerable difficulties in attaching precise meanings to the thoughts expressed in lines 9-14, and that is perhaps precisely what we are intended not to do. The range of meanings is dense and elusive, suggesting both the speed of thought, desire, love and devotion, in terms of winged flight (Pegasus), fiery steeds, the winds, the sightless couriers of the air, the horsemen of the apocalypse, as well as the occasional reminder of the dull flesh, poor beasts and the muddy vesture of decay. But it is desire (of perfectest love being made) which in the end triumphs, as the poet rushes forward to the beloved on the swift wings of thought, and material means of transport are turned loose and given leave to wander and to pasture as they please.
|Hus can my loue excuſe
ſlow offence,
Of my dull bearer,when from thee I ſpeed,
where thou art,why ſhoulld
I haſt me thence,
| 1.
Thus can my
love excuse
the slow offence
|1.Thus - referring to the explanation of the horse's lack of speed given in the previous sonnet. Also looking ahead to lines 3-4. my love = my love for you, (which will find reasons to excuse the horse's slowness). But a secondary meaning is the youth himself, who could be imagined as joining in the analysis of love's swiftness and time's slowness. 3-4. slow offence = offensive slowness; the sin of moving in a dull and sluggardish way. Compare swift extremity of line 6.
|2. Of my dull bearer when from thee I speed:
|2. my dull bearer - the tardy horse. Also reminiscent of 'one who bears, one who suffers'.
|3. From where thou art why should I haste me thence?
| 3.Why
should I speed away from you?
I haste me - modern usage would be 'I hasten', without the reflexive me. Cf: Weary with toil, I haste me to my bed, 27.
thence = from there.
| 4. Till I return, of
is no need.
4. of posting = of using post horses, and hence travelling by the fastest possible means. Over 100 miles per day could be achieved by the determined use of post horses, which were stationed at inns on main highways, chiefly for the use of those on government business. The system enabled frequent changes of horse to be made. Hence phrases such as haste-post-haste came into the language.
OED - post. v.1. cites: 1598 Hakluyt Voy. I. 65 Riding as fast as our horses could trot (for we had fresh horses almost thrise or four times a day) we posted from morning till night.
|5. O! what excuse will my poor beast then find,
|5. O! What excuse - sc. what excuse for not running fast enough to satisfy the wish of the rider.
|6. When swift extremity can seem but slow?
|6. swift extremity = swiftness which is at the extreme of all possible speed; extreme swiftness.
|7. Then should I spur, though mounted on the wind,
| 7.
Then = when the time comes for me
to return.
should I spur, though etc. = I would indeed use the spur, even though I were etc.
|8. In winged speed no motion shall I know,
|8. It will seem as if even winged flight is like standing still.
9. Then can no horse with my desire keep pace.
9. (And) no horse will be able to run as fast as I desire it to run. My desire to be with my love is so keen that it seems to leap over distance and nothing can keep pace with it. Lines 9 and 10 seem to be tacked on as additions to line 7, not so much qualifying it as as adding further thoughts which illustrate the poet's eagerness to be going and his anticipation of what he will do then when the journey begins.
The punctuation of 8-14 is problematic. Q does not help much, as it provides only commas for 5-14, implying that the whole is one long sentence. But Therefore of line 10 seems to start a sentence, and I have punctuated accordingly. I have retained the brackets also, which most editors discard. The mere fact that the poem deals with headlong motion makes punctuation of less importance, and we could perhaps abandon it entirely. But this would probably be too disturbing for a modern reader, accustomed to use punctuation as an aid to understanding. In addition, fidelity to the original edition does have some virtue, so one should retain it wherever possible if it does not violate common sense, or if the proposed change does not significantly improve our understanding, or if it is not too much at variance with modern practice.
| 10. Therefore desire,
(of perfect'st love being made)
|10. Qs perfects is usually emended either to perfect or perfect'st as here. The phrase in brackets seems to qualify desire as though fearing that it might be interpreted as lust, or else desiring to show that desire is of a pure and ethereal nature, made of air and fire, as in 44 and 45, and capable of phenomenal speed.
| 11. Shall neigh, no dull
flesh, in his fiery race;
11. My disembodied desire shall neigh, like a spirited stallion in a turbulent race, expressing its energy and eagerness to reach the goal. It will not be like an ordinary piece of dull horse flesh.
The line is generally reckoned to be difficult, with no single meaning having predominance. But it is clear that some comparison is being made between desire and a spirited horse, the comparison being in the end detrimental to the horse. Since race has several distinct meanings (contest of speed, genus, fast current), it is obvious that several meanings could be hammered from the line, especially as his could apply to desire or to horse indifferently. Desire both is and is not a fiery steed, and in the end it discards all bestial existence in its swift flight through the ether of thought.
| 12. But love, for love,
thus shall excuse my jade-
| 12.
love, for love = my love for you,
or love personified, shall, for the sake of that love, or our love, or
the sake of you, or both, or all, shall etc.
jade a tired horse; a worn out, useless horse.
|13. Since from thee going, he went wilful-slow,
| 13.
from thee going = when leaving you;
he - my jade;
wilful-slow = deliberately slowly, obstinately slowly.
14. Towards thee I'll run, and give him leave to go.
14. give him leave to go = dismiss him, send him packing, let him do as he pleases. The basic meaning of 'to grant permission' in this context acquires a slighltly contemptuous tone, especially as it is applied to a horse, not to a human. Since the horse is so useless he may be turned away. Shakespeare uses the phrase 'to give leave to' more than 80 times in the plays, often at very poignant moments. It was much more common then than now. Some examples are recorded below.
FALSTAFF My
lord, I beseech you, give me leave
to go
Your grace
shall give me leave, my Lord of York,
I beseech
your majesty, give me leave to go;
And, when
thou hast done this chare, I'll give
thee leave
and if I bring thee not something to eat, I will give thee leave to die: but if thou diest before I come, thou art a mocker of my labour. Well said! AYL.II.6.12-14.

MusiCares Announces 20th Anniversary Campaign
MusiCares has announced its 20th Anniversary Campaign fundraising effort with a $5 million matching gift from the ELMA Music Foundation and a significant gift from Olivia Harrison and the Material World Foundation in memory of George Harrison. The overall fundraising goal of the campaign is $15 million.
MusiCares ensures that music people have a place to turn in times of financial, medical and personal need by providing programs and services, including emergency financial assistance, educational workshops, flu shots, hearing tests, and medical/dental screenings. Additionally, the MusiCares MAP Fund allows ongoing access to addiction recovery treatment and sober living resources for members of the music community regardless of their financial circumstances, including Safe Harbor Rooms, weekly addiction support groups and the MusiCares Sober Touring Network. In its first 20 years, MusiCares has served 65,000 clients, awarded 18,000 grants and provided $24 million in funding to members of the music community.
"The MusiCares 20th Anniversary Campaign is an opportunity to create a legacy for our future and long-term resources for the music people we serve," said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy and MusiCares. "We thank all of our leadership donors for their generosity, and we want to highlight the ELMA Music Foundation and Olivia Harrison and the Material World Foundation for their extraordinary gifts that represent both sides of the music world — the industry professional and the artist."
"It is a privilege to honor George with a gift to MusiCares' 20th Anniversary Campaign," said Harrison. "Music was his life as it is for all fellow musicians. They and their families deserve the support of those in a position to assist during difficult times. MusiCares has brought together a great community of friends bonded by music and compassion. George would appreciate having this gift made in his name."
The campaign cabinet, co-chaired by noted entertainment attorney and MusiCares' Board Chair Emeritus John Branca and legendary record company executive Mo Ostin, has raised more than $11.1 million to date from numerous donors, including the Academy of Country Music, Herb Alpert Foundation, Lynn and Les Bider Family Foundation, Chris Blackwell, Pat Boone, the John Branca family, Cirque du Soleil, John Densmore, ELMA Music Foundation, David Foster Foundation, Barry Gibb, Gibson Foundation, Joel Katz, Tim Leiweke, Jim Long, the Material World Foundation, Jerry Moss, MTV Networks, Chuck Ortner, Ostin Family Foundation, Neil Portnow, Rhino Records, Bill Silva, David Sonenberg, Streisand Foundation, Rod Temperton, and Barry Weiss.
"The music world is a remarkably diverse gathering of people — from those who stand in the spotlight to people who work behind the scenes — all of whom are equally important to the music ecosystem," said Branca. "And MusiCares has been providing help to this entire community for many years."
"The MusiCares 20th Anniversary Campaign is designed to set an example of 'giving back' from the spectrum of individuals who have benefitted from working in an industry that rewards creative excellence," added Ostin.

OCEAN CITY – A visit to Ocean City over the past 75 years most likely included a stop at the Alaska Stand. With three locations over the years and 75 years of tradition, the Alaska Stand received high honors this week, when Aug. 4, 2008 was proclaimed "Alaska Stand Day" within the resort.
It's been 75 years since the Givarz family opened their small, family-run business, and while times have changed, differing locations have evolved and the menu has grown, one thing remains clear, locals and vacationers alike still love the "A-Stand."
Mayor Rick Meehan made the tradition official this week when he read the proclamation honoring 75 years for the Alaska Stand in Ocean City, making Aug. 4, 2008 the official "Alaska Stand Day."
"It gives me great honor to present this," said Mayor Meehan, a self-proclaimed loyal customer of the Alaska Stand.
Meehan recalled his days spent at the 9th Street location, starting in the 1960's when, "9th Street was the happening spot on the boardwalk."
"I think there's very few of us who haven't enjoyed the A-Stand at some point," said Meehan.
Benjamin Givarz started the Alaska Stand in 1933 at Wicomico Street. The menu began with just one item, the famous "Alaskas," vanilla ice cream on a stick dipped in chocolate. Soon after, fresh squeezed fruit juice was added and the Alaska Stand quickly became a boardwalk favorite. Son Jerry and his wife Dorothy later took the helm, transforming the business into one of the best-known burger joints in town.
The Alaska Stand tradition was expanded to 9th Street and the boardwalk in 1968, where it still stands today in its 40th year.
A third location sprouted at 50th Street and Coastal Highway in the 1980's, where patrons enjoyed everything from burgers to fries to soda with crushed ice for over 20 years until its doors closed for good.
In 1991, longtime employee of the Alaska Stand Rob Cole took over the Wicomico Street location, later changing the name to the Atlantic Stand but maintaining the rich, A-Stand tradition. The Atlantic Stand changed hands once again in 2006, when local couple Brandon and Madelyne Phillips purchased the restaurant, also vowing to uphold the tradition started by the Givarz family in 1933.
The 9th Street location stands proudly in 2008 and remains a part of the family with third-generation Bob Givarz now running the show. Both Bob and mother Dorothy Givarz were present at Monday evening's council meeting to accept the honor.

Sloane Stephens acquitted herself well in a 6-4, 6-3 loss to Serena Williams in the Brisbane International quarterfinals Thursday. Stephens, 19, came out guns blazing, up to the challenge of playing her friend and idol. Her explosive movement was exceptional as she covered the court from left to right and repeatedly sent near-winners back with interest, forcing Williams to hit that extra ball. And that extra ball. And that extra ball.
Williams' frustration mounted as the match went on. She was unable to get a sniff on Stephens' serve. In fact, Stephens repeatedly found herself 0-30 on Williams' serve, only for Williams to buckle down and ace her way out of it. Stephens' pressure clearly had an effect. As early as 3-3 in the first set, Williams was urging herself on, screaming "Come on!" and berating herself for errors.
In the end Williams only needed one break point, which happened to be a set point, which she converted to take the first set 6-4. After a lengthy discussion with
her coach, David Nainkin USTA coach Troy Han, Stephens joked about Williams' "come ons," saying they were "a little disrespectful."
Much has been made over whether Stephens was earnest in her critique. Personally, having been at press conferences and interviews with Stephens, I just don't buy into any argument that she was taking a dig at Williams in any meaningful way. The comment came at the end of a coaching timeout. Stephens said it was a joke meant to alleviate her disappointment and frustration from losing the set. As reported by Tennis.com, Stephens said it was just a bit of "friendly fire" amongst friends.
"That's something that him and I joke about a lot," Stephens said. "It was kind of just to ease the tension a little bit. I mean, I don't know what I looked like on the court, but I felt like I looked like a sour lemon, so I was like, Ah, I need to relax. No, it was just a joke. All fun."
One of the most refreshing things about Stephens has been her irreverence when it comes to discussing her own career -- of which she can be scathingly self-deprecating -- and when discussing others. Tennis fans and pundits yearn for a player as open and witty yet are just as willing to criticize them for their honesty, or in this case, their sarcasm. Let's take a moment to fight the backlash. What matters most is that Stephens played a tremendous match that showed her potential and got us excited about the future of American tennis. Let that be the legacy of the night.

When I look for my range model and spark igniters online, I get some different parts that look different.
... One burner keeps clicking even after the flame is on.
Quote from: michaeljc70 on July 03, 2012, 05:40:17 PM... One burner keeps clicking even after the flame is on. only one Burner ?if it was (2), the Ignitor wires may have been swapped ....Check to see if it's connected to the correct input and output.
Spark switch for that burner prob needs to be replaced. Yank the wire off of it and see if the sparking stops is what I would do.Note: Being careful not to get shocked or shorting out any live wires of course.

BREAKING: Anti-trafficking bill passes Congress!
Now, on to the president's desk!
Today, after more than two years of countless phone calls, frustrating roadblocks, and non-stop prayer, your voices rang through the halls of Congress. The Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act passed through the House of Representatives -- only a few weeks after the same provision passed through the Senate!
Now, it goes to President Obama's desk to be signed into law.
* * *
A video thank you from me:
This law is the centerpiece of all U.S. policies and programs combating human trafficking. Originally passed in 2000, the legislation and the laws and programs it created have made the United States a global leader in the fight against modern-day slavery.
However, due to political bickering, this law expired in September 2011. Today, members of Congress came together to ensure that the fight against injustice would begin anew.
The renewed legislation makes some important gains for combating human trafficking around the world -- and here at home. Some of the new aspects of the bill include: allowing survivors of trafficking in the United States better access to services; strengthening law enforcement efforts to crack down on human traffickers here in the United States and around the world; and allowing the United States to form strategic partnerships with governments trying to crack down on trafficking in their own country.
Words cannot properly express the critical role that advocates like you have played in these efforts. When the voices of citizens got loud, things started to change and the bill started to move. It may have taken longer than we wanted, but the fight against modern-day slavery is stronger for it. Advocates persevered and never backed down. They spoke truth into power, and today, power gave the voices of the people a big nod of respect!
Seeking justice takes time. It takes patience. The payoff is not always as fast as we want it to be.
But when God breaks through, amazing things happen. World Vision will continue to work to make sure that this law is properly implemented and that it has the impact it is capable of having.
There is always more work to be done. Children are still enslaved -- forced to work or sell their bodies to those who perpetrate evil. But today, advocates and lawmakers stood together to take a stand against this evil. And we will continue to do so.
Stay tuned -- there is more justice to come.
Call your members of Congress and thank them for passing the TVPRA. By expressing your appreciation as a constituent, you'll show them that you take notice when they support just policies -- setting the stage for them to do the same in the future.
Millions of children all around the world are still vulnerable to all different kinds of exploitation -- like forced labor, sex trafficking, forced military recruitment, and more.
You can make a one-time donation to help provide safety for a formerly exploited child. Your gift will help prevent further abuse and restore physical, emotional, and spiritual health to those who have faced terrible experiences.

Alonso honored for chance to use pink bats
By Corey Brock / MLB.com
"It's awesome," Alonso said before the game. "I grew up watching guys swing pink bats and wanted to do that. It's an honor. It's for a good cause."
Alonso was one of three players to use the bats Sunday, as outfielder Chris Denorfia and shortstop Jason Bartlett did as well. Mark Kotsay would have, but he was sidelined with a lower-back injury that he suffered Saturday.
Since 2006, Major League Baseball has celebrated Mother's Day at home ballparks as a platform to raise awareness of breast cancer in the interest of prevention, treatment and a cure. Hundreds of players were expected to use pink Louisville Sluggers, stamped with the MLB breast cancer awareness logo.
"When I got the bats, the first thing I did was take a picture of them and sent it to my mom and dad," Alonso said. "I told them how proud I was to use them."
Reliever Andrew Cashner even got into the act Sunday, not with a pink bat but by wearing pink cleats from Under Armour.
Loretta pinch-hitting on Padres' broadcasts
PHILADELPHIA -- Mark Loretta was a pretty good pinch-hitter during his 15-year Major League career, so it should probably come as no surprise he has eased into his temporary transition as part of the team's television broadcasts as well as he has.
Loretta, in his third season as a special assistant in the Padres baseball operations department, worked his fourth game on Saturday as part of the Fox Sports San Diego crew. He provides insight and analysis before, during and after games while Mark Sweeney is taking time off.
Loretta, who retired after the 2009 season, worked two games on television last week and will do all five of the games of this road trip to Philadelphia and then Washington, D.C. Loretta played for five teams in his big league career, including three seasons (2003-05) with the Padres.
"I was happy to step in," Loretta said Saturday. "I've been interviewed a million times ... but I have never been the interviewer. But it's given me an appreciation for how hard these guys work. The product looks so seamless on television, but there's a lot of work that goes into it."
That's not all. The 40-year-old Loretta has thrown batting practice to the Padres before games on this trip before throwing on a suit and tie to step in front of the television cameras.
As part of his job in the Padres front office, Loretta travels to the team's Minor League affiliates during the season. He's already been to Triple-A Tucson and Double-A San Antonio, where he worked with top prospect Jedd Gyorko as he moved from third base to second base.
Black receives congrats for reaching 400th win
PHILADELPHIA -- Manager Bud Black isn't one to talk about personal accomplishments or achievements, though he did admit Sunday to getting a handful of text messages and well-wishes after getting victory No. 400 on Saturday against the Phillies.
"That was nice," he said.
Black, who has earned all 400 victories with the Padres since being named manager before the 2007 season, had no trouble recalling his first victory, a 7-0 win on Opening Day of 2007 against the Giants in San Francisco as Jake Peavy -- on his way to winning the National League Cy Young Award -- tossed six scoreless innings.
"And [catcher] Josh Bard had four hits," Black said, smiling.
Black has the second-most victories in franchise history, trailing his predecessor, Bruce Bochy, who won 951 games between 1995-2006.
"It's not easy to win a single game, let alone 400," said Padres third baseman Chase Headley, who made his Major League debut in 2007 and has witnessed more victories by Black than any other player on the active roster.
"To win 400 is just another notch for him. I think that there are far more to come."
Kotsay says lower back is feeling better
PHILADELPHIA -- There was good news to be had on the injury front for the Padres on Sunday, a rarity during a trying season that has already seen 11 players land on the disabled list.
Outfielder Mark Kotsay, who left Saturday's game against the Phillies with tightness in his lower back, told manager Bud Black that he was feeling better Sunday morning.
"He said last night that tomorrow [Sunday] will be big," Black said. "When I saw him today, he said that it felt good. We're going to do the best we can to stay away from him today."
Kotsay said he first felt tightness in his first-inning at-bat and then in the field during the bottom of the inning. He was replaced by James Darnell in the second inning.
Kotsay had back surgery in 2009 and previous stints on the disabled list in 2008 (back soreness) and in 2007 (back spasms). He also spent time on the disabled list in 2007 with a herniated disc and in 2003, during his first stint with the Padres, he missed time with a protruding disc in his back.
Kotsay opened the season on the disabled list with a strained right calf. He missed the first 10 games of the regular season with the injury.
In his first 34 at-bats with the team this season, Kotsay is hitting .294 with one home run and six RBIs.
Short hop
Third baseman Chase Headley, who entered Sunday's game tied for first in the National League in games played (34), got his first start off of the season Sunday. It was a planned day off, one that manager Bud Black informed him of on Friday. James Darnell got the start at third base.
"I'm really indifferent to it," Headley said. "Sometimes you need it more than others. We just had an off-day [Thursday] so it wasn't like we had played 20 in a row."

RICKY Ponting's farewell tour may be cut short one game after a stomach bug struck down the ex-Test skipper ahead of the Hobart Hurricanes' Big Bash Twenty20 opener against Brisbane Heat on Sunday night.
But Hurricanes captain George Bailey expects Australian crowds to see more of fellow Tasmanian Alex Doolan.
Bailey joked that maybe a "dodgy burger" eaten while soaking up the Australian Open golf in Sydney this week may be behind recently retired Test batsman Ponting's expected absence at the Gabba on Sunday night.
"He's got a bit of gastro," Bailey said.
"A couple of tough days watching golf has obviously taken its toll.
"He will lie low today and see how he will pull up tomorrow. The heat will take a bit out of him so I don't think he will risk it, but we will assess that tomorrow."
While Ponting's stomach may be suspect, Bailey said there was nothing dicey about Doolan's prospects after the unheralded Tasmanian was thrown into the mix as Ponting's replacement for the Test series against Sri Lanka.
While Bailey endorsed left-hander Phil Hughes as Ponting's Test replacement, he thought it was only a matter of time before Doolan made more than the national selectors sit up and take notice.
Doolan - also from Ponting's hometown Launceston - has thrashed 409 Sheffield Shield runs at 58.42 this summer but staked a huge Test claim with an unbeaten 161 against South Africa for Australia A.
"Talent-wise he has always had it but now he has turned his starts into big scores," Bailey said of Doolan.
"And batting at three for us (Tasmania) is very important for us and it helps you jump out of the pack in front of other (Test contenders).
"They have picked the right man in Phil Hughes and deserves his opportunity in the Test side but someone like Alex Doolan, you have a couple of good scores and suddenly your name can be thrust into the limelight."
Still, Bailey looked forward to being part of Ponting's swansong just days after the Australian batsman, dubbed the best since Don Bradman, had a bittersweet Test farewell against the all-conquering Proteas in Perth.
"It would be good to see him have an extended run at T20," Bailey said.
"When it first kicked off at what seemed many years ago he had some success but never had a chance to string games together in the format.
"He didn't have the Test scores he wanted but prior to that he had been in outstanding form and still has a skill level above us mere mortals."
The Hurricanes - boasting the likes of Xavier Doherty, Travis Birt and Tim Paine - have been buoyed by the bizarre withdrawal of Dale Steyn from his sole Heat appearance due to a South African cricket dispute.
Brisbane will also be without New Zealand allrounder Daniel Vettori (achilles) for the entire BBL campaign.

Try to relax and see how you 'naturally' like to use your shoulder and arm focusing on keeping everything in the sweetspot of range of motion. Go slow and smooth but the pronation better be snappy otherwise you lose too much control. Start at the contact point and slowly try to expand using more of the chain. knowing the exact feel at the contact point is the most important key.

A 4channer Explains Why 4chan's Decline Is Great for 4chan
Yesterday I wrote a a post about the decline of the message board 4chan as a cultural force on the web. This sparked an unusually well-reasoned email from a 4chan browser explaining why 4chan's newfound obscurity is 'great news' for its users. Here it is, with a few annotations.
Dear Mr. Chen
As a 4chan browser, your article brings in great news for us. No, I'm not being ironic.
Any user that browses the site outside of /b/ [4chan's most famous, and most anarchic, section] can tell you how difficult and horrible these past 4 years have been since Anonymous came to the scene. The raids and hacking all culminated in exposure to the mass media, which led the site to being flooded with edgy hipsters that had absolutely no regard to the netiquette and culture (yes, 4chan has netiquette, particularly outside of /b/) that had been established on 4chan up to 2008. They just came to the site because they wanted to feel special by taking part in the hacktivist and meme creating activities. However, these users, as stated above, had no idea how 4chan worked and thus it lead to the death of /b/ and the downfall in quality of many other boards, such as the /v/, the video game board. It became so bad that /b/ has not produced anything of worth in the last 4 years: all the memes have come from other boards and sites.
These people have seeped into other boards and have, for the most part, caused rampant problems; one of which is offtopic posting, particularly because they had the /b/ mindset of: "anything goes since there are no mods".
If anything, the death of 4chan and Anonymous from the interest of the mass media and the internet overall will help the site immensely. 4chan is a site for discussion, not meme creating or hacktivism. Memes just evolved out of the everyday user discussion: a particular phrase or image catches on and then it spreads etc.
With the rise of reddit, 9gag and tumblr, these horrible users are being attracted there and not to 4chan. As you might know, summer time is the worst time for the site because it is flooded by these sort of posters. [i.e. immature high school students on summer break, known on 4chan as "Summer fags."] However, this summer has been pretty decent so far and the quality of many boards is actually improving: there's more ontopic and fun discussion.
I hope this email will, at the least, give you a new perspective on 4chan.
In short, users outside of /b/ do not care if 4chan is not the center of the internet anymore, nor do we care about Anonymous. We just want a fun place to discuss our hobbies with like minded people. Hopefully this trend will see that 4chan's quality is strengthened or at least preserved.

Durango High School head volleyball coach Robin Oliger wanted to test her team against larger and quicker competition in 2012 after another pool-play exit at the CHSAA Class 4A Girls Volleyball State Championships, the hope being that it would better prepare DHS should the Demons have the fortune to make it to state again.
The result?
Six of the teams on Durangos schedule will join them this weekend at the Denver Coliseum, four of them in Class 4A.
So saying this years Demons are battle-tested would be a bit of an understatement.
Although Durango lost all six of those matches against Cheyenne Mountain, Windsor, Valor Christian, Ponderosa, Heritage and Chaparral the losses provided a measuring stick for the 17-8 Demons. And a lesson in speed.
Front Range teams are fast. I mean, you saw Pueblo West this weekend, Oliger said. Theyre just faster teams, and their competition, every match they have is a faster match.
The most important lesson may have come against Cheyenne Mountain, if only because Durango shares a pool with the top seed, and theyll meet Saturday in the two-day, four-pool, 12-team format. DHS dropped that early season match 3-0 but pushed the Indians to the limit in two games, eventually falling in three 25-21, 25-21, 25-16. DHS faltered against the four-time defending champion on the big stage in Denver the year before.
In 2011, Oliger said the Demons had some trepidation against the Indians because they only had heard about their exploits, having not seen them play. Playing them in an early-season, low-pressure atmosphere showed DHS it could compete.
I think that was really a good learning experience for us, Oliger said. For one thing, we came home thinking, Maybe we are OK. That little self doubt that was there before the season started (to go away).
It also was part of the affirmation process. Durango lost a key group of four seniors last year, led by Southwestern League Player of the Year and Division I recruit Sloan Lovett, and theres always an element of doubt when a core of that quailty is excised from a roster.
But Oliger said a summer of playing together started the ball of confidence rolling downhill, and by the time the Silver Creek and Cherry Creek tournaments were finished in September, the Demons started to believe that this unit could keep that state tournament roll going.
And that journey made Saturdays regional championship victory all the more satisfying for the seniors.
Weve worked really hard to adjust to it, and we have done great, I think, said Kennedy Clark, daughter of Letty and Randy Clark.
But its not only the seniors along for the ride. Junior defensive specialist Gaby Razma, who transferred from Mount Assisi Academy in Lemont, Ill., said shes delighted about the opportunity ahead of her new team and thats underselling Razmas level of excitement.
My school in Chicago, we never made it to state, so this is really, really exciting. Im just soaking up the moment and trying to enjoy it as much as I can, said Razma, daughter of Ed and Kristina Razma.
Excitement? Check.
Experience? Check.
Now to see if itll all pay off.

Coastal, AACU Pay Out Millions to Members
Two more credit unions have announced their return of bonus dividends to members for 2012: the $5.6 billion, 238,000-member American Airlines Federal Credit Union of Fort Worth, Texas, and the $2.1 billion, 193,000-member Coastal Federal Credit Union of Raleigh, N.C.
AACU paid a $10 million bonus dividend to borrowers and savers on Dec. 31, 2012, in addition to a $50 bonus to members who participate in three or more of the credit union's eight major account categories.
The credit union based the bonus dividend amount on dividends earned on qualifying share accounts and interest paid on applicable loans through Nov. 30, 2012.
"Giving back to our member-owners is one of the primary benefits of credit union membership," said Angie Owens, president/CEO at AACU. "We're happy to once again reward our members for their loyalty and product diversity while demonstrating our continued strength, efficient business practices and sound lending decisions."
Coastal FCU distributed $1.6 million in loan rebate dividends and deposit bonus dividends to 6,907 members of its VIP Program, the credit union said.
This is Coastal FCU's second year to pay bonus dividends to members of its VIP Program, which it rolled out in January 2012. Individual payouts ranged from $100 to $1,000.
"Having a program that gives money back when we are financially successful reinforces the cooperative mindset and deepens member loyalty," said Chuck Purvis, president/CEO at Coastal FCU.
To qualify for Coastal FCU's VIP Program, members had to make at least 144 checking account withdrawals in 2012, and to receive a dividend payout, they were required to hold at least two loan or deposit accounts at the credit union.

People complaining about them moving the gig to the Monday is pretty petty. I'm hoping the Berlin gig is still on seeing as i'd be travelling nearly 900 miles for it, with no chance of attending a rearranged date IF its cancelled......

Fri 29thNov would have been a much better date.....AM have no gig that day plus the Arena has nothing on that day either

Get well soon Alex! A bit disappointed it's on a Monday! But you will make it worth it, good luck!

Moving a Saturday night gig to a Monday night is a @#$*! take tbh. People have jobs etc. should have been another Saturday night, even if that meant waiting longer.

Anyone worried that Melo's numbers are down in pretty much every category this year? 5 less ppg, shooting percentage down, free throw % down, 3pt % down.
Can we chalk this up to the trade talks and him being totally disinterested in Denver?
Any chance we keep Chandler in a potential deal. I know this sounds crazy, but I see a lot of similarities in Chandler and DWade. I think with experience and driving the lane more Wil could be close to comparable to Wade

Angels to get visit from former NFL star Urlacher
By Alden Gonzalez / MLB.com
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Former NFL middle linebacker and potential Pro Football Hall of Famer Brian Urlacher is expected to stop by Tempe Diablo Stadium to visit with the Angels on Friday morning.
Urlacher, a friend of longtime Angels athletic trainer Rick Smith, is an eight-time Pro Bowler who spent his entire 13-year career with the Chicago Bears. Urlacher, 35, retired at the end of the 2012 season and currently serves as an analyst for FOX Sports 1.
The Angels play their first split squad of the spring that day, hosting the Cubs and traveling to Salt River Fields to take on the Rockies. The Angels aren't sure what Urlacher will be doing in camp.
Healthy Pujols looking sharp on defense
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford hit a bullet to the right side, but when Jered Weaver turned around, there was Albert Pujols, diving full-extension to his right, fielding the short-hop cleanly and feeding the Angels' ace for a 3-1 putout that was one of two diving stops Wednesday for the $240 million first baseman.
"That's what we're used to seeing out of him," Weaver said after giving up two runs (one earned) in four innings during his second Cactus League start. "You can tell he feels good, feels healthy. He's a Gold Glove first baseman when he's feeling good, feeling healthy, and obviously we saw it on that play."
Pujols, coming off a season in which he was limited to 99 games because of plantar fasciitis in his left foot, has started at first base in four of the Angels' six Cactus League games -- and Wednesday was the most positive day so far.
Pujols traveled to play in back-to-back games for the first time this spring. He notched his first hit, singling up the middle to snap an 0-for-9 skid. And he made two diving plays at first base, robbing Crawford of a hit in the first and doing the same to Joaquin Arias in the sixth.
Weaver said the difference between Pujols in March 2013 and March 2014 is "night and day."
"Just the way he's running around, the way he's moving at first -- just walking in general, he looks more healthy," Weaver said. "I've been talking to him. He says he's feeling really good. Hopefully we can keep him at that level."
Angels reconsidering bullpen, utility infielder
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Two near-certainties at Angels camp were that Joe Blanton wouldn't make the team as a reliever and that the backup infielder job was basically a two-man race between John McDonald and Andrew Romine, the two guys who have Major League experience and can handle shortstop.
On Wednesday morning, Angels manager Mike Scioscia opened the door for alternative scenarios, starting Grant Green at shortstop at Scottsdale Stadium -- with Romine coming off the bench -- and raising the possibility of an eight-man bullpen, a move that could be done to make room for Blanton.
The reason for eight relievers, which would give the Angels only a three-man bench to open the season, is two-fold:
1. None of the three young starters projected to round out the rotation beyond Jered Weaver and C.J. Wilson -- Garrett Richards, Hector Santiago and Tyler Skaggs -- have pitched a full season in a Major League rotation, which could necessitate an additional reliever.
2. It would give the Angels an avenue to keep Blanton, who's owed $8.5 million, can't be optioned to the Minor Leagues and may be useful to the club as a swingman and No. 6 starter.
"Our first focus is to get guys who can hold leads," Scioscia said. "If you look at our rotation, especially with some of the projected young guys who are trying to vie for positions, you're going to need to maybe hold some leads earlier when guys' pitch counts are getting away from them and you might have to go with some guys more. But we're still three weeks away from any decisions on that."
Green could challenge Romine and McDonald for the job as utility infielder if he proves he can handle shortstop and third base.
That's still a big question, though.
Green, acquired from the A's for Alberto Callaspo last July, is a better hitter than Romine and McDonald, but nowhere near as good a defender. He came up as a shortstop, but quickly moved out of the position, grew more comfortable at second base and has hardly played third base in his five-year pro career.
Green played six innings against the Giants and handled the only two routine grounders hit to him, charging one and ranging slightly to his left for the other.
"He had an unbelievable workout with [infield coach] Alfredo [Griffin] last week from the left side," Scioscia said. "He made some changes as far as getting his legs into the throw. His arm has more than he's shown. If he can carry it over into a game, he has the arm strength to play shortstop. There's no doubt he's in that mix."
Worth noting
• The Angels made their first cuts Wednesday, reassigning outfielder Zach Borenstein, right-hander Yeiper Castillo and left-hander Hunter Green to Minor League camp. Borenstein strained his left calf during a "B" game in Goodyear on Tuesday, but only expects to be out of action for a week.
• Catcher Anderson De La Rosa, the longtime Brewers farmhand obtained on a Minor League contract in January, has yet to report to Spring Training due to issues leaving his native Venezuela. The Angels aren't sure when to expect him, but it could be close to April by the time he arrives.

Americans Abroad
(Wednesday, August 3, 2011) -- Most of the primary European leagues will begin their 2011-2012 seasons in the next two weeks and, in fact, some have already played their first matches. Many Americans will remain with their clubs from last season, but several have made moves to new teams. A few remain in limbo with their eventual destinations still up in the air.
Here is rundown of the United States men's pool players and other key Americans overseas:
Freddy Adu, midfielder; Benfica, Portugal
Adu is a player whose status and future are unclear. In his fourth loan away from Benfica, which bought him from Major League Soccer in 2007, he wisely set aside his ego in February to ensure he'd finally get some playing time and joined Rizespor, a club in Turkey's second division. He found playing time and some success. Now, after a good Gold Cup for the United States men, he is back at Benfica, but likely will be loaned out once again.
Jozy Altidore, forward; AZ Alkmaar, Netherlands
It looks like American forward Jozy Altidore is on the verge of heading to AZ Alkmaar of the Dutch Eredivisie, his fifth team in Europe since leaving MLS in 2008 to sign with Villarreal of Spain. Alkmaar says it has offered Altidore a permanent contract and that all that remains are the formalities.
While under contract with Villareal, Altidore was loaned out to Xerez of the Spanish second division, England's Hull City, and last season with Bursaspor of Turkey, where he played in 12 games and scored one goal.
DaMarcus Beasley, midfielder; Puebla, Mexico
Beasley's move from Glasgow Rangers of Scotland to Hannover 96 in Germany last season was a disaster. He only made four poor substitute appearances, so he was released at season's end.
Now Beasley has joined Puebla, a Mexican club.
Alejandro Bedoya, midfielder; Örebro, Sweden
It looked like Bedoya was on his way from Sweden to Scotland but, in recent days, it was reported that Scottish Premier League champions Rangers' transfer bid for Bedoya was been rejected by Örebro. Rangers' coach Ally McCoist told reporters that the bid was rejected by Bedoya's Allsvenskan club. It now looks like he will have to wait for the January transfer window when he will be out-of-contract.
Carlos Bocanegra, defender; Saint-Etienne, France
After moving between French sides from Stade Rennais to AS Saint-Etienne, the defender made 33 starts, missing only match because of suspension abd another because of a late return from the U.S. men.
Michael Bradley, midfielder; Borussia Mönchengladbach, Germany
After moving from relegation-threatened Borussia Mönchengladbach of the German Bundesliga to Aston Villa of the English Premier League on loan in January, Bradley made just three appearances as a reserve. Villa coach Alex McLeish decided not to pick up a purchase option, so Bradley has returned to Mönchengladbach, where his status is uncertain. The media says inquiries have come in from Paris St. Germain, Hamburg, Genoa and Bologna, but so far nothing has materialized. Some believe he will be paid for the final year of his contract, but will essentially sit out the season.
Edson Buddle, forward; Ingolstadt 04, Germany
The long-time MLS player signed a multi-season contract with Ingolstadt, the second-division club, in January. He was a starter, but managed only three goals. He has been in and out of the lineup in preseason, and will likely start the season on the bench.
Timmy Chandler, defender; FC Nürnberg, Germany
After a terrific first season at FC Nürnberg, Chandler is back in the starting lineup. Last weekend, in the club's final preseason game, he played 70 minutes in a 1-0 victory over Racing Santander.
Steve Cherundolo, defender; Hannover 96, Germany
Cherundolo will again wear the captain's armband for the 2011-2012 season. The 32-year-old right back has returned to training after a month's absence from the torn ankle ligament suffered for the U.S. in the Gold Cup final. It is not clear yet if he will be fit for the season opener.
Ricardo Clark, midfielder; Eintracht Frankfurt, Germany
After an injury-marred season, Clark is hoping for better things this year, as is his team after being relegated to the 2. Bundesliga. He has been in and out of the starting side in preseason.
Clint Dempsey, midfielder-forward; Fulham, England
Dempsey is hoping for another season near the record campaign he had for Fulham last year. He led his team to an eighth-place finish in the Premier League and ended up scoring more goals then any American in Premiership history, a team-best 12 goals.
Mikkel Diskerud, midfielder-defense; Stabæk IF, Norway
In his second season, Diskerud is a regular starter as a midfield-defender with Stabæk, which now is in midseason. Last weekend, Stabæk defeated IK Start 4-1 to move into fifth place in the Tippeligaen standings. Diskerud went the distance for the Blues in central midfield in the winning effort.
Maurice Edu, midfielder; Glasgow Rangers, Scotland
Edu is coming off an inconsistent season with Rangers. He scored important goals, but was responsible for a disastrous own goal that sent the club out of the European Champions League. This season, he started in the center of midfield in the first league match, as well as in a Champions League play-in loss to Malmo. So now, he is being moved to the right wing to find if he fits in better on the outside.
Robbie Findley, forward; Nottingham Forest, England
Out with an injury almost from the moment he moved from MLS to Forest, he ended up with only 37 total minutes of game action last season. He is seeing playing time now in Forest's preseason and scored the game-winner of a 2-1 win over VfB Stuttgart. He beat a defender down the left side and his shot deflected off a defender and into the net.
Brad Friedel, goalkeeper; Tottenham Hotspur, England
When Aston Villa delayed offering him a new contract after last season, Friedel moved quickly to accept a two-year deal with Tottenham Hotspur. The 40-year-old keeper said he was going to Spurs to become the starter, but after a preseason tour of South Africa it appears the incumbent, Brazilian international Heurelho Gomez, will get the nod on opening day and Friedel will be the backup.
Clarence Goodson, defender; Brøndby IF, Denmark
The tall defender made a switch from IK Start of Norway last November and made only an occasional start. This season, now half over, he has become a starting central defender and last weekend went the distance in Brøndby's 2-2 draw with Aalborg BK.
Brad Guzan, goalkeeper; Aston Villa, England
Last season, Villa loaned Guzan to second-tier Hull City, which now wants him full-time. Yet, it looks like he will stay at Villa and back up new keeper Shay Given.
Marcus Hahnemann, goalkeeper, out-of-contract
Hahnemann lost his starter's job with Wolverhampton Wanderers 12 games into last season and his contract was not renewed. After flirting with Hull City this summer, it looks like his 12-year career in England has come to an end and he will end up in MLS where he will replace the retiring Kasey Keller in Seattle.
Stuart Holden, midfielder; Bolton Wanderers, England
Holden had an up-and-down first season with Bolton,but was coming on strong when he was hit by a serous knee injury that required surgery. He is still working his way back to fitness and has not appeared in the preseason.
Tim Howard, goalkeeper; Everton, England
Howard will be back in goal for Everton this season after some preseason transfer talk that had the net-minder a transfer target for a top Premier League team.
Jermaine Jones, midfielder; Schalke 04, Germany
In a tumultuous season, Jones had a serious falling out last year with Schalke manager Felix Magath and was loaned to Blackburn Rovers in England, where he fit right in. Blackburn wanted him back, but could not meet Schalke's multi-million-dollar price tag. Magath doesn't want him back either nor does the club want to keep paying his reported $5.7 million salary for 2011-12. If the German media is to be believed, he might end up playing in Russia.
Sacha Kljestan, midfielder; Anderlecht, Belgium
Kljestan had a decent season with Anderlecht last year making 23 appearances and scoring three goals. He did not dress for the club's opening match or final preseason clashes.
Eric Lichaj, defender; Aston Villa, England
Lichaj, a right back, has not been able to crack the game-day lineup at Aston Villa. but went to Leeds United on loan for the second half of last season. Now reportedly, Leeds is in talks with Villa to acquire his contract, but there is no resolution so far.
Oguchi Onyewu, defender; Sporting Lisbon, Portugal
After transferring from Standard de Liège of Belgium to AC Milan, his first season in Italy was lost to injury. He sat in the stands for the first half of his second season when he was loaned out to FC Twente in the Netherlands, managed by his former Standard manager Michel Preud'homme. He had a tough time breaking into a lineup with a set defense, but did play some at left back. He had nine league appearances.
Now he might have found a new home where he fits in. At Sporting Lisbon, he arrives at a team in need of defensive help. If the preseason is any judge, he will be a starter. Last weekend in an exhibition against Juventus in Toronto, he started in a 2-1 triumph where, in the first half, he picked up an assist by heading down a corner kick for Yannick Djalo to put away.
Jonathan Spector, defender-midfielder; Birmingham City, England
After a strange year at West Ham United, where he sometimes sat on the bench or in the stands, sometimes appeared as a substitute and sometimes started, Spector saw his contract not renewed after new manager Sam Allardyce arrived. So he moved on to Birmingham City of the seconds-tier League Championship. He signed a one-year contract with options for additional years. City manager Chris Hughton says he will use Spector both in midfield and on defense.
David Yelldell, goalkeeper; Bayer Leverkusen, Germany
After a good season with MSV Diusburg of the 2. Bundesliga, Yelldell has finally made it to a big team, signing a multi-year deal with Bundesliga runnerup Bayer Leverkusen. He is competing for the starting position and looks to have won it after Rene Adler was ruled out after undergoing knee surgery.

Evan Longoria, whose magical season continues into the World Series, and Geovany Soto, who emerged as a leader for the NL Central-champion Cubs, were selected by their peers as the Outstanding Rookies in their respective leagues in the Players Choice Awards.
Longoria, who turned 23 earlier this month, took the AL by storm to help lead the surprising Rays to the AL pennant. He batted .272 with 27 home runs and 85 RBIs and earned a spot on the AL All-Star team along the way.
"It's an unbelievable honor," told Yahoo! Sports. "It's been an unbelievable season for us. We're hoping to keep it going but as for my season, I couldn't be more excited."
Soto, an unheralded 11th-round draft pick in 2001, took over the catching duties for a talented Cubs team that was expected to battle for the division title. The 25-year-old from San Juan batted .285 with 23 homers and 86 RBIs.
"All I was trying to do was work hard and get to the big leagues as soon as possible," Soto said. "It's pretty amazing, kind of surreal right now."
Soto's most important contribution came behind the plate where he guided one of the game's best pitching staffs. The Cubs had an MLB-low .242 opponents batting average awhile allowing the NL's second fewest runs (671) and second-lowest on-base average (.316 ).
"We had a lot of veteran pitchers who were up to the hard work," Soto said. "I always talked to them -- [Ryan] Dempster, [Carlos] Zambrano, [Ted] Lilly, [Jason] Marquis and [Rich] Harden. They were easy going and ready to work. Everyone was in sync. We were on the same page, so it was a fun season."
The Players Choice Awards are selected by the players themselves in balloting conducted in September under the supervision of the accounting firm KPMG. Players are invariably gratified to be honored by their peers.
The Outstanding Comeback players in each league will be announced by Yahoo! Sports on Thursday. The overall Player of the Year, a vote of players in both leagues, as well as the Marvin Miller Man of the Year will be announced on Friday.
Each 2008 Players Choice Award winner recommends the charity of his choice to receive a grant from the Major League Baseball Players Trust. Since 1992, the Players Trust has contributed more than $3.25 million dollars to charities around the world in honor of Players Choice Award winners.

Ruben Amaro will be going to the Winter Meetings with some goals.
Phils have specific goals for Vegas
Entering Winter Meetings, re-signing Moyer remains priority
By Ken Mandel / MLB.com
Will that include some actual spending, Ruben? I'll be right here waiting for nothing to happen. Am I'm being cyncial? What was your first clue?
PHILADELPHIA — The next phase of Ruben Amaro Jr.'s accelerated stint as Phillies general manager starts Dec. 8, when representatives from all 30 teams gather for the annual Winter Meetings.
Though the Meetings are being held at the Bellagio in Las Vegas from Dec. 8-11, the Phillies don't plan to hit the jackpot. Re-signing starter Jamie Moyer remains a priority, along with continuing the search for a left-field solution should Pat Burrell leave as a free agent.
"Pitching wins, and we want to strengthen that," Amaro said on the day he was introduced as general manager. "That's our focus."
It has remained the focus, especially on a team looking to become the first National League team to repeat as World Series champions since the 1975-76 Reds. A team with expected payroll increases may not have financial room to add CC Sabathia or Manny Ramirez, but it will explore tweaks as necessary.
"We have things to deal with," Amaro said last week. "We're trying to improve our club, and we will look at every option."
With the 2009 returns of second baseman Chase Utley (right hip surgery) and third baseman Pedro Feliz (back surgery) unclear, the team has explored utility player options such as former Phillie Nick Punto, as well as adding another arm to an already deep and effective bullpen.
In case Moyer doesn't return, the Phillies have kicked the tires with the representatives for free-agent right-handers A.J. Burnett and Derek Lowe. On the outfielder front, while they will continue to speak with Burrell, the names Raul Ibanez, Rocco Baldelli and Juan Rivera remain on the surface.
Like many teams, the Phillies may have to wait until Sabathia and Ramirez make decisions on their futures, opening up the rest of the market.
Amaro has been swamped since officially replacing Pat Gillick as general manager on Nov. 3. Later that day, he whisked away to the GM Meetings in Dana Point, Calif., briefly interrupting that cross-country journey for a trip with manager Charlie Manuel to dismiss third-base coach Steve Smith.
In the next three weeks, Amaro hired Benny Looper and Scott Proefrock as assistant general managers and promoted Chuck LaMar to assistant general manager. Amaro also negotiated deals with pitching coach Rich Dubee, hitting coach Milt Thompson, first-base coach Davey Lopes and new bullpen coach Mick Billmeyer.
Bench coach Jimy Williams resigned and was replaced by Pete Mackanin, while Sam Perlozzo took over as third-base coach.
On the field, Amaro re-signed Scott Eyre to a one-year, $2 million contract extension, and hopes to do the same with Moyer. The team added organizational depth by signing reliever Mike Koplove to a Minor League deal, and would like to bring in more arms to compete for jobs in an already deep and effective bullpen.
Dealing outfielder Greg Golson to the Rangers for Minor Leaguer John Mayberry on Nov. 20 potentially added a right-handed corner outfielder, at least for the long term.
Internally, the Phillies are also believed to be mulling ways to sign Ryan Madson, Jayson Werth and Cole Hamels to contract extensions to avoid arbitration and keep them around beyond '09 (for Madson and Werth) and '12 (Hamels), respectively.
It's assumed that Amaro took a break for the Thanksgiving holiday, and will now turn toward some Christmas shopping.
"We'll be looking at every possible way to improve our club," he said. (H/T Phillies.com)
I'm hoping that Ruben will get off his *** and re-sign Moyer and hopefully Burrell, while extending the contracts of Madson, Werth and Hamels, but frankly, I'm not holding my breath that any of this will be done before the year is over as long as the idiots running this club are a bunch of tightwads with the dough. Oh, guys, kindly spend the dough for these guys. And Ruben, how about doing some work, that's all I ask.

Hey I'm Kelsie! (aka Swim Bud) I've been a member of the Lexicon for a while now; I just don't post that often. My name used to be Sprinter352.
How I came up with my username: I joined the swim team at my high school last year (and I didn't have any experience) and found out that it was one of the best decisions I've ever made! I met a lot of new people, and starting hanging out with these 5 girls - 2 I didn't know at all, 3 I was aquainted with from past soccer teams or other classes. We all became best friends and started having monthly sleepovers. We made swim t-shirts and we now call ourselves (just as an inside joke) the Swim Buddies.
How I found out about Twilight: Way back in what, 2006? I was out of books to read so I looked at the Barnes and Noble recommended list. I saw Twilight on there and it sounded interesting...The next week or so I saw it at Target and recognized it so I decided, "Why not? I'll read it." I'm sooooo glad I did! My favorite book is probably Twilight (the first is always the best). But I really like Eclipse too.
Who I like: I like Edward! But Bella IS the main character and she's very relatable so I like her too.
Favorite minor character: Alice is definitely by far my favorite minor character.
Hobbies: I play soccer and I'm also a swimmer and track runner (varsity!!!). I like sprints/short distances. Obviously I also like to read and I enjoy writing as well. Most of the time I'm just out doing things with my friends like boating or just hanging out somewhere.
I'm from Oregon.
I'm a teen.
YAY! I have a cat, a kitten, and a dog. I can't think of anything else to say.

Rupert Everett Gay Parenting View: 'A Child Needs a Mummy and a Daddy'
Rupert Everett, an openly gay British actor, stated that he does not believe it is best for children to have two fathers.
Everett, who is currently playing Oscar Wilde in "The Judas Kiss" in London, has stated that he does not agree with two gay men bringing up a child. The comments have surprised many.
"[I] can't think of anything worse than being brought up by two gay dads," Everett told The Sunday Times Magazine. "Some people might not agree with that. Fine! That's just my opinion."
The opinion goes along with the traditional view that children need both a mother and father figure in order to achieve a happier and healthier life.
"Children want a mother and a father," Andrea Lafferty, President of the Traditional Values Coalition, told The Christian Post in an interview earlier this year. "Gender makes a very big difference."
Other groups have suggested similar viewpoints, saying that two men could both possibly be fathers, but reiterating that neither of them can provide the mothering a child needs.
"Two men might each be a good father, but neither can be a mom," the National Organization for Marriage, an organization in support of traditional marriage, said in a statement on its website. "The ideal for children is the love of their own mom and dad. No same-sex couple can provide that."
Rupert however established that he was not speaking on behalf of the gay community, which may disagree with his viewpoints.
"I'm not speaking on behalf of the gay community. In fact, I don't feel like I'm part of any 'community.' The only community I belong to is humanity and we've got too many children on the planet, so it's good not to have more," he said.
His mother Sara has also expressed that she would not want her son to have children with another man.
"In the past, I have said that I wish Rupert was straight and, I probably still feel that," she told the magazine. "I'd like him to have a pretty wife. I'd like him to have children. He's so good with children. He'd make a wonderful father ... But I also think a child needs a mummy and a daddy. I've told him that and he takes it very well."

text: To be fair, radio back then had actual DJ's who picked what music they played. Some stations were just radio stations meaning they played the popular music of the time and had time slots where older music was played and different genre's. There were no predetermined robot play lists. A guy who got a studio recording could get his music played along side the big name acts of the time. Where it would, if successful spread from one station to another. I was listening to JACK 97 FM here in town one day while rearranging my room and cleaning out my closet and drawers and filling boxes with old clothes to give to the St. Vincent de Paul Society and I noticed that the song rotation had begun again, same songs same order as before. Radio today is a shadow of what it was in the 60's. Radio, except for specialized stations found on satellite radio or your cable music channels (Not MTV, but where music is played and a picture of the band and the name of the song appear.) play music of different genres. Those too are on a play list but it seems much longer than the ones on radio. For a week I could tune into JACK 97 at about 9:15PM and hear Pat Benatar's "Heart Breaker." Sorry for hijacking my own thread. If someone wants to start a thread about Radio, be my guest.


text: I specifically remember that. I didn't really want Schaub, don't think he was the kind of player that would make a difference for us, plus I was a big Pennington fan. I was more in favor of getting a 1st rounder for Abraham. Mangold has turned out to be great, and I don't know how good Schaub would be without Andre Johnson, plus he has shown to come up small in big games.
