Buddy Hield and his Oklahoma teammates finally starting making shots after halftime.
Hield scored all 19 of his points in the second half, when the 25th-ranked Sooners rallied with a big run in a 66-64 victory Saturday at No. 12 Baylor, which had won 13 straight at home.
"I'm always a confident shooter, and my teammates are always encouraging me," said Hield, who was 7 of 11 in the second half after missing his three shots before then. "I got a little spurt going, but it's all thanks to my teammates finding me in open spots, giving me that confidence to make shots."
The Sooners (14-4, 3-2 Big 12) were down by eight right after halftime before reeling off 16 consecutive points, going ahead on a 3-pointer by Hield before Isaiah Cousins and Cameron Clark also hit from beyond the arc to cap that spurt.
Baylor (13-4, 1-3) regained the lead on a putback by Cory Jefferson with just over 9 minutes left. The lead then changed hands three more times and the game was tied three times before Heild's 3-pointer with 4 minutes that put the Sooners ahead 58-57.
"I thought we did a better job of moving the ball in the second half," Sooners coach Lon Kruger said. "And of course, Buddy knocking down some 3s there, kind of jump-started everyone's confidence, and that was great."
Freshman guard Jordan Woodard made two free throws with 29 seconds left for a 65-58 lead. Baylor's 7-foot-1 center Isaiah Austin then hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key before Woodard, a 78 percent free throw shooter, missed after being fouled with 18 seconds left.
Austin hit another 3 from pretty much the same spot and Woodard had the ball again and was fouled. Woodard made the second of two free throws with 9.1 seconds left, leaving Baylor with one more chance.
After point guard Kenny Chery brought the ball down the court and got it to Royce O'Neale whose pass toward Austin was deflected by Clark. O'Neale came away with the ball and turned for a shot, but it came after the buzzer and the basket that would have forced overtime didn't count.
"Nine seconds is a long time," Kruger said. "Seconds are precious at that point, and the deflection kind of used up just enough time for the horn to go off before they got control of it."
Clark had 14 points, 10 after halftime, and Woodard added 10 points with eight assists for Oklahoma. Ryan Spangler, the Gonzaga transfer, had seven points and nine rebounds.
Chery had 16 points and five assists for Baylor while Austin had 12 points and nine rebounds. Jefferson had 11 points and eight rebounds.
Oklahoma got into the AP poll this week for the first time since November 2009, then promptly lost 72-66 at Kansas State while shooting a season-worst 33 percent. The Sooners were even worse than that in the first half Saturday, shooting only 23 percent (7 of 30), before getting on target with their big run and hitting 58 percent (15 of 26) shots after halftime.
"In the first half we were tremendous defensively but we needed more separation at the beginning of the second half. We didn't come out with the same defensive intensity and they made shots," Baylor coach Scott Drew said.
Chery knows where the blame goes for the letdown.
"It's on us as players," Chery said. "You can't teach effort."
Baylor is off to a rough Big 12 start after its only non-conference loss was to No. 2 Syracuse. The Bears next play at No. 15 Kansas on Monday night.
The Bears were deliberate on their opening possession of the second half, making several passes before finally finding Jefferson inside for a basket that made it 32-24. They then went 5½ minutes before Jefferson scored again.
At one point, Drew ripped off his jacket in obvious anger with Austin down on the court after being elbowed in the face without a foul called. Drew even took two 30-second timeouts trying to slow down the Oklahoma run.
Woodard had a steal from Chery, then had an assist on Hield's layup that got the Sooners within 32-31 with 17:04 left. A minute later, Hield hit a 3-pointer to put the Sooners ahead for the first time since the game's opening minutes.
"I honestly don't know what happened," Jefferson said. "We just didn't come out ready (in the second half). Not like we did in the first half."

Rubio and the Politics of Immigration (III)
Michael Gerson gives Rubio undeserved credit for political risk-taking on immigration:
Rubio has been willing to risk his tea party credibility in making the conservative case for reform.
As the success of Rubio's "charm offensive" on talk radio indicates, Rubio hasn't had to risk much of anything so far. Rubio has been lauded as a rising star and possible presidential or vice-presidential candidate almost the entire time he has been in the Senate, and his status as a conservative folk hero has allowed him to revive Bush-era immigration proposals without much resistance so far. There are very few movement conservatives and partisans that are willing to attack Rubio directly. On the contrary, the main concern seems to be protecting Rubio against any possible backlash, which is part of what Gerson is doing in this column. Weigel explains why Rubio is being given such an easy time:
They want to win the presidency, and they think he's got what it takes to do it. So he's uniquely able to go onto conservative media and calm down the table-bangers. They don't want to make him look bad!
If Rubio ends up backing an immigration bill favored by Obama, it will become extremely difficult to prevent a conservative backlash against him. So it's possible that Rubio is the one trying to play both sides of the issue, and he may end up succeeding. It would suit Rubio's interests to make some effort to promote Bush-era legislation, which earns him favorable coverage from non-conservative media and boosts his reputation as a "reformer," but then become an opponent of whatever legislation comes before the Senate. Rubio will say that he wanted to make a deal, but the other side was too unreasonable in its demands. That way, he can neutralize most of his conservative critics while retaining a reputation for "bipartisanship." Is Rubio that cynical/canny of a politician? Maybe not, but it wouldn't surprise me if it turned out this way.

Post subject: Just over 2 weeks, how will you be spending your time?
Hey everyone!
I've been stalking this forum for a few months now, although I only joined yesterday. It's been so helpful, trawling through past and present posts whenever I feel like it's all too much.
I'm interested to know...how will you be maximising your study this next fortnight? For example, I'm not overly confident with solving org. chemistry problems, even though I understand concepts, I find it hard to apply them still. So I'll be solving as many questions as I can for the next few weeks. I ordered some MCAT study cards over a week ago, and I really hope they arrive in enough time to be useful! Otherwise I'll be googling.
I might spend a day or so brushing up on my old essays and perhaps doing little brain teasers on the net, just to get myself even more familiar with what's needed in the first 2 sections. And even though I'm a bio major, reviewing basic bio.
How about you? Does anyone have any great last minute tips? Or if you've done it before, something that should be avoided?

haha me too! i do love forums. i feel less guilty for not studying full on
i'm working full time at the moment, so i've taken annual leave the week before gamsat, and i plan on going over acer questions. i probably ought to study more science, but i'm hoping that by going over the questions i'll be able to apply my basics better!
hows everyone going with practice tests here? i tried an acer practice test, fully timed, and did absolutely miserably on the science section. though mostly because i lost my head with the stress of it, rather than a lack of knowledge. hoping that doesnt happen on d day!

Gah the Acer practice tests, they're in a blessing and a curse hey? I got 65% for section I and then about 50% for section III when I did it a few weeks ago. But I stopped about 2/3 through section III because I was getting discouraged. So I started studying some more stuff instead rather than wallow....in some ways I wish the GAMSAT was tomorrow because the waiting is becoming unbearable and the more I study, the more I see how much I've got to learn!! Haha. I'll probably do another lot of questions at the end of the week and *hopefully* see if there's been any improvement and decide how to spend my final days....
I don't know what I'd do without the internet though. It sounds funny, because obviously there's books and people managed to get qualifications without the internet back in the day. But just watching online lectures on youtube this weekend has cleared up so many issues I was having. Plus, I find I learn things much faster when I have someone explain it to me on a board rather than reading it....so maybe if you need to squish some science in but don't have heaps of time try that?

When you review your performance on the ACER booklets, don't just try to see how to get the correct answer, focus on how to get the correct answer quickly and efficiently. And of course, it's helpful to recognize patterns so that if a similar problem comes up, you can apply similar principles.
When you complete an ACER booklet, convert that learning into about 1 or 2 condensed pages of notes which you should look at daily for the next 10 days.
Which flashcards did you get?
Here is a physics formula list which you can print and look at daily:

thats exactly what i'm doing! itunes university though, they're pretty good, and yeah, heaps better than reading through text books...
my scores were pretty much the same, collapsed in the science section, but forced myself to go through with it coz i really wanted to see how difficult it was. it was difficult.
how much do you just want to finish this test already?!

Yes I can't wait until it's done...I'm slightly mad at the moment. One minute I'm all "I'm gonna do this!!", the next I'm miserable and I'm convinced that I'll fail terribly. Craaazy. I just found a great resource called KhanAcademy, which has tonnes of free videos and I think practice problems too. Just revising some stuff with the org.chemistry videos now, they explain it really well and use pretty colours at the same time which helps keep me interested (it's the simple things...). Only thing is you need a Google or Facebook account to enter some parts of the site, which might be a problem for some.

I was talking to a friend of a friend yesterday, who sat the UMAT twice. Even thought it's different to GAMSAT (only 3 hours!), he said the second time he sat it, he did one of those prep courses beforehand and got some amazing score. Funnily enough, he decided he'd rather be a paramedic. But I think if I don't do so well this year, I'll do a proper course to build on what I've learnt this time around and try again next year. The if I do badly again, I'll take the hint.
Where are you sitting Gamsat if you don't mind me asking? I'm doing it in Adelaide, which I'm pleased about because it's in the same building I've had most of my other big exams, so I won't need to worry about where to park etc. It's one less thing to worry about which is nice

It's so good to know everyones stressed! As odd as that sounds. I'm sitting the exam in sydney, not too sure of the place, but I'll get dropped off so parking won't be an issue
I don't know if I'll sit it again if it doesn't work out, I'll probably stick to Econ and become very rich instead.. Sadness.
Ack, I am kinda excited about giving the test almost! Oh now I'm afraid again..

If you like the Volkswagen Golf, but are looking for something a little bigger, you'll enjoy the Volkswagen Tiguan, which is essentially a hatchback crossover version of the Golf. What makes it special is its advanced driving dynamics, thanks to its build based on the GTI. You'll also find a powerful turbocharged engine under the hood, linked to a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission.
You're also likely to appreciate the 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan's upscale interior, which may seem more suited to a luxury sedan than a crossover SUV. With the Tiguan, you're getting a luxurious interior and an upscale driving experience, but what are you giving away? One thing you're sacrificing is cargo space, which is not as plentiful as you'll find in other crossovers. Since one of the main reasons to buy a crossover is extra carrying space, this may be an important factor to think about. The price of the Tiguan could be more competitive for a compact SUV, especially at the better trim levels, and, perhaps of less concern but still worth considering, fuel economy for the Tiguan is not the best. The Tiguan comes in three trim levels: S, SE and SEL, with the upgraded trims primarily offering more luxurious interior features and the option to add on features like a sun roof and a navigation computer. The base S model is fairly stocked on luxury to begin with, and the price jumps pretty fast with the higher trim levels, especially if you're adding all-wheel drive, so you may want to ask yourself if you really need all the bells and whistles that come with the higher trims before you take the plunge.
If you're in the market for a crossover, like the Volkswagen styling and appreciate a good ride, check out the Tiguan. If you're looking for value, need a lot of trunk room, or are concerned about fuel economy, there are definitely a number of other great options out there for you to look at.
Volkswagen did a lot of redesigning in 2012, and the Tiguan was part of that movement, so you won't see too many changes in the 2013 model. Standard features on the 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan are a leather wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, electronic parking brake with hill-hold assist, and power passenger seat for the upgraded trim levels. The LE trim is now history.
The 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan sort of looks like a stretched out version of the Golf that it is based on, so if you're a fan of the Volkswagen Golf's exterior styling, you'll probably appreciate the look of the Tiguan. If not, or you're looking for a more distinctive look in your crossover, the Tiguan may not be your ideal choice. The base model comes with 16-inch alloy wheels, a fixed liftgate window and rear power liftgate door and optional trailer hitch. The SE features an optional power glass sunroof, roof rack and privacy glass, along with 18-inch alloy wheels. The SEL gives you all the SE features but upgrades you to 19-inch wheels. Color options include Candy White, Deep Black Metallic, Night Blue Metallic, and Wild Cherry Metallic.
There's no question that the interior of the five passenger Tiguan is a big selling point. It's quite upscale, with luxurious, yielding surfaces and lots of leather touches. Even the base S model offers full power accessories, leather wrapped tilt and telescoping steering wheel, leather wrapped shift knob, and eight speaker audio with CD player. Passenger space is ample, with 35.8 inches of rear leg room and 40.1 inches of front leg room, but cargo space could be better for a crossover, 23.8 cu. ft. with all seats in place, expandable to 56.1 cu. ft. The fully loaded SEL offers leather bucket front seats, multi-level front seat heating, an eight way power driver's seat, adjustable lumbar support, a fold flat passenger seat, a split folding rear seatback, reclining rear seats, power everything, Bluetooth capability, and a display navigation system among its features.
As you'll find with most Volkswagens, the 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan is great on safety, which is definitely something you're likely to be looking for in a crossover. In Insurance Institute of Highway Safety crash tests, the 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan scored the top rating of ?Good? in all four major areas: Frontal offset test, side impact test, roof strength test and rear crash protection test. The Tiguan has a four-wheel antilock brake system with ventilated front disc and solid rear disc brakes.
Other safety features that can be found on the Volkswagen Tiguan include front and rear head airbags and dual front side-mounted airbags, emergency brake assist and electronic brake force distribution, tire pressure monitoring, stability and traction control and tire pressure monitoring. The Tiguan has child seat anchors for driving with young children as well as rear door child safety locks. For theft prevention, there is an alarm system and engine immobilizer.
The 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan definitely brings more performance than you might normally expect in a compact SUV, and is available in front wheel drive or 4Motion all-wheel drive. The 2.0-liter, turbocharged, four-cylinder engine linked to a six-speed manual or six-speed shiftable automatic transmission delivers 200 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque. Gas mileage is a merely adequate 18/26 mpg city/highway with the manual transmission, 21/26 mpg city/highway on the automatic, and 20/26 on the all-wheel drive model. Still, if you're a fan of good driving, the advanced driving dynamics of the Tiguan, which makes it drive more like a GTI, will probably be worth a few extra stops at the pump.

The United States has produced and immortalised a huge number of "heroes": Davy Crockett, Johnny Appleseed, Paul Revere, Geronimo, Buffalo Bill, Sitting Bull, Luke Skywalker, Hannah Montana, Calamity Jane, Pocahontas, Bonnie and Clyde, Hiawatha, Spider-Man. Some good role models, some bad. Some true, some fictional. Their stories have been celebrated through film and television.
How many New Zealand popular heroes can you name? Probably not many. We aren't so great at celebrating our local heroes on TV and film. But this could change with a little more help from New Zealand On Air.
Adults and children receive generous NZ On Air funding for factual programmes on TV. But when it comes to drama, children are relegated to the back seat.
Last financial year NZ On Air contributed $28.5 million of public money towards drama for adults (Go Girls, Nothing Trivial, The Blue Rose, Harry, Siege, and so on). Children were awarded only $1.034 million for one drama (Girl v Boy). Why the big difference?
If this concerns you, you should write to NZ On Air and ask it to change its attitude to drama for young people. Because it won't do it voluntarily.
The cold hard fact is that our broadcasters (like most broadcasters around the world) don't actually want local children's drama. There's no money in it. They would rather pump their resources into prime time programming which can attract the big advertising bucks.
Because profit is their mandate.
In Australia - the lucky country - their broadcasting regulations force networks to screen local children's drama. No such luck here in New Zealand.
NZ On Air is statutorily obliged to put money into children's TV - and it does a great job funding such local favourites as What Now, Sticky TV, and Let's Get Inventin'.
But they're mostly factual/magazine/studio shows. Where's the local drama?
NZ On Air should also be giving priority to family drama that Mum and Dad can watch with their children.
The alternative is that Kiwi kids spend their time watching American and British drama on Disney and Nickelodeon. It may be beautifully filmed, slick, well-written and acted, but it's about the people of other countries. Countries whose culture, clothes, music, language and values are not necessarily the same as ours.
Shortland Street has been deservedly praised for "normalising" and validating Kiwi accents and attitudes. For the same reasons, we should be providing drama for a younger audience (say ages 8 to 12) as well. So they can see themselves and their neighbourhoods on our screens, and follow Kiwi actors and heroes.
NZ On Air is charged with providing a range of drama, factual content and entertainment for Kiwis - "to put New Zealand on air". It does a good job for adults - but surely that commitment is even more important when viewers are young and are forming their view of the world and their place in it.
Our own heroes, role models, stories.
Factual programmes go only so far. It is drama that has the emotional impact, that tells powerful stories and creates legends.
That gives us our own role models, our own stories, our own heroes and villains.
Not so long ago, NZ On Air regularly funded children's drama series. Why has that commitment evaporated?
I believe NZ On Air should establish a policy of funding two major New Zealand drama series a year for the family audience. The board will point out that it has a finite amount of money and a lot of special interests to address.
We know that, of course. My point is that family drama should be a priority. Even if it means a bit less money for adults.
The broadcasters won't like this. But if Kiwi parents let NZ On Air know they want more locally-made family drama, then NZ On Air will have the confidence to insist on it. By earmarking the money for family drama, it can make it happen.
The recently-formed New Zealand Children's Screen Trust - of which I am a trustee - aims to raise awareness of the value of local content for children. It's important that New Zealanders make their views known on this subject if they want local drama they can sit down and watch as a family.
NZ On Air has the opportunity this year to do something really worthwhile for our kids, by allocating more money for family drama.
I believe it wants to - but it needs some noisy support from Kiwi parents to justify any change in its priorities.

Fencing around gardens can add to look
By Chaya Goodman Kurtz, Networx
In the South, they know a thing or two about staying cool and creating magical gardens.
Atlanta fencing contractors have been building iron fences around gardens for years. Local carpenters have added to the architecture of the South by building whimsical garden houses and arbors.
Wouldn't you like to create some shade in your garden? You can create a shady outdoor living area by taking a cue from the South: Build an arbor; put up a decorative fence.
It's a fun project that can be done in a weekend.

Dear Friends,
in yesterdays post I talked about how the intense influence of the recent high energy impacts has again triggered a pineal gland awakening in many people. I shared that such an awakening increases our psychic abilities, and that the energy field of Francis of Assisi can help us manage this new born inner strength. The Ascended Master Francis of Assisi is well know as a very big animal lover and healer of all wounds within the animal realm. How it works for us to use his powers in order to help our pets in their healing process, I mentioned in this article from January!
In my work I can see, that many people have followed the resent call from the universe, to increase their connection with the forces of mother nature. For some of them the first sign was an increased love for the animal kingdom, a feeling of a more direct connection and communication and a sense for our oneness. So when I ran into this article from Elisabeth Broadbent on YourTango claiming, that calling our dogs our babies would be an insult to all moms, I actually felt a bit insulted by her ;-). I think in many of her perspectives, she is missing a bigger few and claims a very small picture as "truth". But see for yourselves! As it is easy and direct, I commented on the original article directly below and in color.
A personal message to all my facebook friends!! FB is limiting the distribution of my posts daily more. If you resonate with my articles and are used to find my work shared in a group, rather sign up on my newsletter here to make sure you get the information!!! Just type in your e-mail address in the prepared field!! Over time I might not be able to put in the FB time, if it does not lead to what it is about – SPREADING THE WORD ;-)!
Her fiery claim is: Say you love them, but don't call them your "furkid."
I have a dog. Two dogs, in fact. We got our puppies before we got our kids, and we loved them. We kissed them. We cuddled them. We bought them too many toys; we overindulged them with treats. We gave them silly pet names and let them sleep in our beds. But never did we call those beloved canines "furkids" or "furbabies". Because the last I checked, dogs ain't people. — Your puppy is not your child, so stop saying that he is. I have three children now, and I know this for certain — kids and dogs are not same.
The very first thing that pops into my mind on this is the question, how do we define motherhood. And is only allowed that we emotionally experience ourselves as mother, even when we have not given birth?? What is the point in this story??Think about when you got your puppy. You probably picked him out at the local ASPCA, or selected him from the local breeder. Basically, you pointed to a dog and said, "That one." On the other hand, most mothers went through nine months of body invasion, followed by one of the most intense physical experiences of her life. Then they dropped a baby on her chest. It was all agony and joy and angels singing. And even if you adopt, you go through paperwork and waiting hell before you find yourself weak in the knees, hands a-tremble, as you weep with joy when someone hands you your child for the first time. Getting a dog just doesn't stack up.
Interesting that the author feels so comfortable to assume how other people came to living with dogs. In my personal case, non of her assumptions are true at all. My dog found me, she was a street dog and about 4 month when we met first. It was her who started following me for touch and kindness, and it was her who decided to give up her freedom for living with me. I was there when she got pregnant, all her pregnancy and she gave birth next to my bed. All criteria she mentions as right to claim motherhood ;-)…
Yes, both puppies and newborn babies wake up in the night. It sucks to wake up and let a dog out but it sucks more to wake up and attempt to latch an unwilling, wailing infant to your breast. Then, once you've managed to feed your bundle of joy, you have to get him back to sleep. The puppy doesn't decide to party until 5am, at which point it's time for another feeding.
Again I can just say we are talking about assumptions. How dogs behave in the night has much to do with the environment we are living in and the amount of dogs we have. I ended up with four of them, the mother and three of her boys. And my home is on the country side of Guatemala. There are tons of street dogs out there and in the night there are concerts and fights going on. Sounds a pack does react to!!
Then there's babyproofing. You puppy-proofed your house — you removed all things chewable, took up poisonous plants, and provided appropriate chew toys. When I babyproofed my house, I had to make sure little hands couldn't gain access to caustic cleaning fluids. I had to look for strangulation hazards (goodbye, Roman blinds) and put safety locks on all the cabinets (which are a giant pain in the ass). If I failed in my duties, I'm not facing a chewed-up family heirloom; I'm looking at a dead kid and a DSS inquiry. The stakes are a wee bit higher.
That is a very interesting way of putting the idea of responsibility and acting from a place of fear, and present it as something glorious. Don't get me wrong, of course parents carry a big responsibility for their children's life, but what I hear her actually saying is " my child's life is more worth than an animals life", and that is what I am putting out for discussion.Not that owning a dog isn't high stakes. You're responsible for the feeding and caring of your dog. Pet ownership is a serious commitment that should only be taken up by those who really mean to care for an animal for the rest of it's natural life. You're stuck with your dog … except you're not because you can leave. Before my husband and I had kids, we traveled all the time — dropped the pups by the doggie spa, paid extra for playground time, and hopped the plane guilt-free. I can't just leave my toddlers. Sure, maybe one day I'll be able to leave them with relatives for some overnights. But it's not quite as simple as plunking my credit card down at the kennel.
Definitely have to disagree here! First of all – ownership of a dog is an illusion that we humans have created for ourselves. Sure, we can MAKE them live with us and obey our demands – but dogs are in essence free spirits and can not really be OWNED, and because of that they actually handle life very similar than children. And – just because one can manage to get away guilt-free, and just because we can outsource our personal responsibilities in this world by spending money, does not mean our actions are correct. When ever I have to leave more than three days, and no matter how well I prepare their care-taking in our home, I can feel the irritation of my absence in the energy field of the pack.
You can mostly ignore your dog. Yes, your dog lives in your house, and yes, you love it. But your attention is not focused on the dog every moment it's awake. Five minutes of inattention on my part and my toddler's drinking bleach and bathing in the toilet. If my kids are awake, I need to know what they're doing, where they're doing it, and what they're doing it with. I don't have to follow them from room to room, but it helps.
Well, this one actually is insulting and contradiction to really feeling responsible for a dog. And also collectively, it is not even true! My dogs make disturbing waves in my brain when they want to reach me, they know how to interrupt the computer monitor – when I am too concentrated on writing and don't listen, and when I am a bit tired on our morning walks – it can happen they push me out of the way with their thought waves. So hell no – when you actually have a relationship with your dogs and your third eye is a bit open, you can not ignore them at all!!!And at the risk of sounding like an annoying parent here: Kids do some amazing things dogs just can't stack up to. Sure, you can teach Fido to fetch, but that pride is nothing compared to your kid learning to read. Both give sloppy kisses, but only one lisps, "I wuv you, mommy." Potty training's more of a milestone. And can your dog draw you pictures with hearts on them? None of this covers the myriad of things I have to do for my kids every day. My dogs watch me prepare lunches, read The Cat in the Hat, and wipe snot off people's faces. While my pups take their business outside, my kids require constant diaper changes.
This actually triggers compassion in me. I understand that it is wonderful to watch others grow, to see their accomplishments and celebrate their leaps, how much is it our place to be "proud about that". There is something in the sound of this sentence that vibrates like – their success is my pay back to me – and that is something I would be careful with.
The dogs don't melt down when their favorite Star Wars figure breaks and they bite me a hell of a lot less. They don't call me a "poop-head." This is just one of the reasons I love them.
So basically she loves dogs because they don't have a voice (in her opinion) and can not tell her, when she acts like an ass?
I know you'll say I sound like a self-righteous parent here. Maybe you don't ever want kids, which you'll somehow make germane to the discussion, but which is neither here nor there. Say you love your dogs. Say they make your life worth living. Say they're your one-and-only. Call yourself a dog person. But don't call your dog a baby. Don't call him your "furkid" or "furbaby." Because baby, it's not even close.
Well that is a Bingo, I think she sounds like a self-righteous parent here ;-). And if we are talking about insult and respect here, it is very disrespectful to all the women, who out of personal life situations, never have the chance to mother a human child!!
Dear Friends, I am very interested to hear if the past few weeks have changed something in the perception of your pineal gland. I you have different experiences with the animal kingdom and, how you think about the baby / dog discussion. Do you think that only when we are the physical mother of a human child, we have a right to claim motherhood?? Or is oneness and compassion something that brings us together so close, that the species does not matter anymore? Looking forward to hear about your inner studies!!

Modeling Project Releng/Website Maintenance
Homepage Copy
Component owners can edit their own website copy if they are members of the group
modeling-home. If they're not they can open a bug, cc: their PMC for approval, and request access from the webmaster. You r bug could, for example, be called:
Please add user jcote to group modeling-home for website maintenance
To edit website copy, check out the web content module from
Then look at these files:
project-info/project-page-paragraph.html (short blurb) project-info/overview.html (detailed page)
As to what content can be put on the site, look at other Modeling project components for examples:
- http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/emft/?project=compare#compare
- http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/emft/?project=search#search
Note that there's at least a 30-second lag before content appears after committing new files or changes.
Build UI
As above, content lives in /cvsroot/org.eclipse/www/modeling/emft/projectName. Copy these three files over from some other component's build/ folder, then edit
_common.php to suit your needs.
build/_common.php (contains shared properties) build/index.php (to run a build) build/promo.php (to promote a build)
Once these files are in CVS, you can extract them into /var/www/html/modeling/emft/projectName/build on your build server like this:
$ cd /var/www/html/modeling/emft/; cvs -q up -Pd
Adding new dependencies
- If your build depends on another component that's not listed, see Where is ${fooURL} defined?, and contact your release engineer for assistance.
- If your build depends on a newer version of a component that is listed, just add the URL in the empty box below the list of already-defined URLs, and your build will use that new one. You can add several at once. You can also add dependencies without actually running a build by first clicking the 'preview build' button on the top-right corner of your build page, then running a "Preview Build". This will not run a build, it will only show you the command that will be run. If you're not sure what all the build options do, this is one way to explore them.
Filtering dependencies
You can set a regex pattern in your build page's _common.php, which allows your build page to be automatically filtered to preselect only the most recent dependencies for your build.
So that your component is properly listed and will appear on the homepage, downloads, release notes, be sure to edit your parent project's
_projectCommon.php file, eg.
Be sure you add yourself to these arrays, as appropriate:
$projects = array( ... ); $cvscoms = array( ... ); $nodownloads = array(); //components with no downloads available yet $nonewsgroup = array(); //components without newsgroup $nomailinglist = array(); //components without mailinglist $incubating = array( ... ); // incubating components (everyone starts here)
Downloads Page
The Build Dependencies subsection under each build on your downloads page shows what each requirements were used for each build.
If you would like to provide more information to help your users, you can add a header or footer to the page, similar to EMF's "Getting Started" header or Validation's "Questions?" footer.
- To enable a header, add a method called doRequirements() into
- To enable a footer, add a method called showNotes() into
Previewing / Testing
Updating Build Server
Once your changes are in CVS, contact your build server admin and point him here. You'll need to provide your static IP or domain name in order to be able to ssh to the build server through its firewall.

The Fine Finn taking command of DU nets; QShore talks about rumor; Jacobson and Didier could return after Christmas
Sophomore goalie Jussi Olkinuora will get his sixth consecutive weekend-opening start Friday at Bemidji State and might also play Saturday in the series finale, DU coach George Gwozdecky said. Senior Adam Murray and junior Sam Brittain are also available. Murray is on the heels of overcoming yet another groin injury and Brittain is 0-3 in his last three starts (12 goals allowed). Olkinuora has been outstanding in his last three starts, going 0-1-2 but allowing just five goals.
DU, after a 9-1 start, is on a six-game winless drought (0-4-2). As captain Paul Phillips said, the Pioneers would probably be 0-6 if it weren't for Olkinuora, the former walk-on who is on the verge of getting consecutive weekend starts. We had a nice feature planned on the Fine Finn Find for Friday's paper, but it is now pegged to run on a good piece of real estate Monday.
Meanwhile, I caught up with freshman center Quentin Shore on Wednesday after practice, the first time I had a chance to ask him about last week's rumor that had him defecting to Portland of the Western Hockey League and play with good buddy Seth Jones, his former U12 teammate in Denver and roommate at the U.S. National Development Program in Ann Arbor, Mich.
Q said he doesn't know how the rumor started, but that The Hockey News guy that tweeted it nevertheless has a solid reputation. Q isn't pointing fingers.
"I'm really happy where I am. I think we have a great team here, and I think our success has bonded through all four lines, and I'm just happy to be a part of one of then," Q said. "I'm happy to be here right now and will continue my hockey career here."
Q has three goals and seven points in 16 games. His two older brother, Drew and Nick, didn't produce any better or any worse as 18-year-old DU freshmen. Drew had just five goals and 19 points in 41 games in 2009-10, and Nick amassed just seven goals and 18 points in 33 games in 2010-11.
Drew, of course, had sensational sophomore (23 goals) and junior (22 goals) seasons and Nick produced 13 goals as a sophomore and currently leads DU with 19 points (six goals).
Bottom line: Is Q struggling? Relatively speaking, no. He's right on track to be as good as his older brothers. He's the Pioneers' third-line center who is getting some time on the power play and penalty kill. If anything, the rumor developed after some — perhaps even Q — began to wonder if the kid was better off developing in major-junior, after failing to be drafted by an NHL team last summer and not making the preliminary U.S. World Junior team roster. But Q remains eligible for the 2013 draft and to play in next year's World Junior Championship.
Finally, Gwozdecky said sophomore forward Larkin Jacobson is scheduled to come off his second team-imposed suspension after Christmas, and sophomore defenseman Josiah Didier (high ankle sprain) could also return to the lineup Dec. 29 against visiting Boston University.
Sophomore wing Zac Larraza, who missed last week's North Dakota trip with the flu, is back in business.

Turner's Digital Sales Force to Become Exclusive Seller
Of Advertising Opportunities with Funny Or Die
Turner Broadcasting System, Inc., including multi-platform entertainment networks TBSand Adult Swim, is joining forces with Funny Or Die in a strategic partnership that links three of the biggest brands in comedy. TBS, the highest-rated comedy network on television, and Adult Swim, TV's leader with young adults, along with select Turner digital properties, will collaborate with Funny Or Die to accelerate the digital content provider's sales and cement all three brands' position as the leading multi-platform destinations for great comedy.
The agreement promises to enhance the phenomenal growth of Funny Or Die, which was launched in 2007 by Will Ferrell, writer/director Adam McKay and writer Chris Henchy. Turner Broadcasting is taking a minority equity stake in Funny Or Die, and Turner's digital sales force will serve as the exclusive seller of advertising opportunities with Funny Or Die. The reach of TBS and Adult Swim – coupled with the strength and innovation of the Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. sales division – will be an ideal pairing for Funny Or Die, which has relationships with many of the top people and brands in entertainment.
"While we are incredibly excited about how this partnership will catalyze our growth and make Funny Or Die an even better place for comedic talent, we are even more excited about the opportunities this will open up to brands and advertisers to create far-reaching, hilariously funny cross-platform content and messaging," said Dick Glover, president and CEO of Funny Or Die. "TBS, Adult Swim, Turner Digital Sales and the rest of the Turner organization are a fantastic fit with us in all ways. Plus, we are instantly gaining an even larger sales staff, something it would take us years to develop. This is very cool."
"We're thrilled by our acquisition of Turner," said Adam McKay, co-founder of Funny Or Die. "We're now taking a long hard look at Viacom. These are heady days over here at Funny Or Die."
Funny Or Die caught fire immediately after its April 2007 launch, thanks to the popularity of Ferrell's now-famous "The Landlord" video, which has been viewed about 80 million times. Since then, the company has evolved into a vertically integrated 21st century digital studio that produces high-quality content over numerous platforms, including funnyordie.com. Funny Or Die also attracts some of the most famous and talented people in entertainment, ranging from Justin Bieber to Zach Galifianakis.
Turner has already worked extensively with Funny Or Die on the creative side of the business, and the two companies will now partner on content that reaches across all platforms, including television, mobile and tablets. "We're investing in Funny Or Die because we can take their great content and give it a wider audience through the incredible reach of TBS," said Steve Koonin, president of Turner Entertainment Networks, which includes TBS. "TBS and Funny Or Die will give people a laugh anywhere, anytime and on any device."
Because comedy has proven to be a magnet for young adults, the Turner and Funny Or Die partnership will be attractive to a wide range of ad partners. "Turner's new strategic alliance with Funny Or Die adds another core asset to our unrivaled digital portfolio that will prove to be very attractive to advertisers looking to associate their brands with great content and an engaged, socially savvy audience," said David Levy, president of sales, distribution and sports at Turner Broadcasting System. "Combined with the powerful reach and content of TBS and Adult Swim, the addition of Funny Or Die provides advertisers opportunities to associate their messages with three top brands that attract young demos and engage consumers across a variety of screens."
"We've worked with Funny Or Die in the past because their sensibilities and creator-friendly environment matches ours," said Stuart Snyder, president/COO Turner's Animation, Young Adults & Kids Media Group, which includes Adult Swim. "This extension of our relationship will now allow us to bring even more great comedy content to our audience."
About Funny Or Die
Funny Or Die launched in April 2007 and has quickly become the top destination for comedy on the web. The site has over 16 million unique users per month, over 60 million video views per month, and has grown into a vertically integrated 21st century digital studio that produces high quality content over numerous platforms, operating a social media and marketing division with over 3.8 million Twitter followers (#1 Comedy Brand), approximately 5.8 million Facebook fans (Funny Or Die: 1.7M; Will Ferrell: 4.1M), and devoted followers on numerous social networking and sharing sites. Funny Or Die has become the "place to be seen" for comedic celebrities, and the obvious destination for a daily comedy fix. Funny Or Die's founders are Gary Sanchez Productions (Will Ferrell, Adam McKay and Chris Henchy), Creative Artists Agency (CAA), Randy Adams and Michael Kvamme. Judd Apatow is also a principal partner in Funny Or Die.

Dear Readers,
What a wash-out our New Zealand summer was – at least here in Canterbury. Let's hope for some better autumn weather so I can get back out in the cemeteries and continue photographing the gravestones without my camera going rusty! There's more work to do at Yaldhurst cemetery and the completion of South Malvern in Glentunnel and many, many more to begin work on.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Over the last month I have received quite a few questions regarding how I go about taking photographs and researching them. To answer those questions I've put together a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page and encourage you to add more of your questions to the comments section so I can update the FAQs regularly. I've answered questions as to what I do with illegible headstones, how I dig deeper into the history of a burial and much more.
Who's Buried in Your Backyard?
On another note, you may be interested to learn of a fantastic grave-hunting project in Australia. Karen Filewood is locating and documenting lone graves in Coffs Harbour, a coastal city on the north coast of New South Wales. You can follow her progress on her "Who's Buried in Your Backyard?" Facebook Page.
Inside History magazine in New Zealand
You might remember an article I wrote for Inside History magazine late last year on the topic of memorial roses. That magazine, which is a fantastic resource for family and local history in New Zealand and Australia, is now available in a large number of New Zealand outlets across the country. Check out the full list here: http://www.insidehistory.com.au/uploads/Stockists-NZ.pdf
Here's hoping for a crisp and sunny autumn so I can kick through the leaves as I continue to record Canterbury's rural cemeteries.
Happy Hunting!

|For other characters named Alice in the Fallout universe, see Alice.
Alice McLafferty is the current manager of the New Vegas branch of the Crimson Caravan in 2281. McLafferty is a strict woman who runs all her day-to-day activities with utmost efficiency and a degree of ruthlessness.
Prior to 2281, McLafferty was in charge of the Crimson Caravan's operations in the Hub, but as the New Vegas branch had been under-performing lately, she relocated to "clean it up."
|The following is based on Van Buren and has not been confirmed by canon sources.
She saw the order to accompany Governor Joseph Dodge to Hoover Dam as an opportunity to expand her caravan empire, and puts on a great show of support for Dodge and his efforts, but secretly wants him to fail. If he does, she will seize the opportunity to take over Hoover and shape it into a town that would be the envy of the wasteland.
Part of her master plan is to work both sides of the BoS/NCR war. She is currently supplying weapons and ammunition to both the Brotherhood at Maxson's bunker and the NCR at Hoover Dam. It is her hope that the war of attrition will eventually take its toll on Dodge and he will step down. Once this happens, she plans to make a supply run to Maxson's Bunker, assassinate Devon Hill, blow up the entrance to Maxson's bunker, therefore trapping any survivors inside, and come back to Hoover Dam as the hero who ended the war. Lofty plans, to be sure, but she has full confidence in herself to pull it off. Corporate espionage seems to be her favorite pastime.[1]
|End of information based on Van Buren.
Interactions with the player characterEdit
Interactions overviewEdit
- You Can Depend on Me: Alice asks the Courier to do various "jobs" for the Crimson Caravan company.
- Pressing Matters: Alice asks the Courier to disable the bottle cap counterfeiting press located at Sunset Sarsaparilla headquarters.
- Young Hearts: Convince Alice to terminate Janet's Crimson Caravan Company contract.
- Heartache by the Number: Either kill Alice or find evidence that she was behind the destruction of the independent caravans.
Effects of player's actionsEdit
- Additionally, the Courier can eventually discover that Alice has been secretly working with the Van Graffs to ambush the other caravans and force them out of business. The Courier, at the behest of Sharon Cassidy, may then murder McLafferty, eventually resulting in serious trouble with the NCR's supply lines.
- The Courier may instead give evidence of McLafferty's crimes to the NCR, allowing them to "tighten their grip" on trade throughout the Mojave Wasteland.
- If the Courier steals the Gun Runners manufacturing schematics and finishes Heartache by the Number peacefully, then Alice and Gloria will get ambushed and killed by Gun Runners seeking revenge. This occurs even if the Courier wasn't caught stealing the schematics.
- Murdering McLafferty or opening her office safe in front of Crimson Caravan employees will turn them hostile.
- Killing McLafferty before completing You Can Depend on Me and Pressing Matters causes failure of those quests.
|Other items
|On death
|Grimy pre-War business wear
|Laser pistol
|100 bottle caps
Crimson Caravan safe key
7 Drained small energy cells
- Alice sleeps in the guard barracks at night.
- Despite having a reputation as a harsh, no-nonsense woman, she is polite and professional in her dealings with the Courier, allowing him/her to turn down certain jobs if they wish without complaint or rancor.
Alice McLafferty appears in Fallout: New Vegas. She was to appear in Van Buren, the canceled Fallout 3 by Black Isle Studios.
Behind the scenesEdit
- In Van Buren, she was called "Ailis". In Fallout: New Vegas, her name was changed to the more conventional "Alice".
- Alice McLafferty's Van Buren concept image is based on actress Glenn Close.

Six Word Saturday…

A letter…
Dear Medical Assistant at my Doc's office:
I got your message. Thanks for letting me know my test results. Since I'm getting
old older, I was actually a bit worried about this last scraping of my cervix. Well, the scraping of the half of a cervix that was left after my poor, tired, uterus was removed. The remaining half that was too mangled and twisted and wrapped around my bladder to be removed. That old thing.
Side note: I bet my uterus looked rad. It was probably all graffiti'ed up, there were probably bean bag chairs in the corner of it, Christmas lights strung throughout it. That's what I bet the inside of that puppy looked like. Hendrix and Marley posters lined the walls of it. I just described my first dorm room, insinuating I gave birth to pot smoking college kids.
Anywho…your message…
Yeah, this is what you said, and I quote, "Yes, this is So-and-So from Dr. So-and-So's office, with your pap smear results. They initially came back abnormal, so we sent them for further testing, and they came back normal. So, we'll see you next year. Thanks and have a good afternoon."
So, bottom line, my mangled mess left over from my baby maker is normal. Normal, right? Couldn't you just have left it at that? I'm getting
old older. I don't need to hear shit like my shit was abnormal. Hearing shit like that, scares the shit outta me.
You made my ears start ringing and my head start pounding…and MY FUCKING HEART JUMPED UP INTO MY FUCKING THROAT FOR A SPLIT SECOND! Was it really necessary to deliver the new that way?
That was rhetorical. No. No, So, and So, it wasn't. Next time, a simple, "Your test results came back normal," will be fine, alright? Ya dig?
Thanks again, and I hope YOU have a great afternoon. You know, unless a medical assistant tells YOU that YOUR shit is abnormal!
Until next year, when I hop back in the stirrups again,

My lobster…
♫ Joy (pump it up, pump it up)…and Pain ♫
♫ Like sunshine (what else, what else), and Rain ♫
We've seen it all in our marriage, and I can easily say that I love him so much more today than I did 13 years ago, when I said "I do," in that tiny little chapel on Las Vegas Blvd. I can't take all the credit for breezing through the past 15 years with this man. Rob Base sang it best (again) when he sang…
♫ It takes two to make a thing go right…It takes two to make it outta sight… ♫
Man that rapper knows a thing or two about love!
Happy Anniversary to my lobster!

Behind the Cards: Quinlan Vos
The Phantom Menace introduced a number of popular figures from the Star Wars Expanded Universe. To provide a better understanding of these characters, we offer the following accounts—the histories behind the units in your deck!
Gray Areas: Force-Users Touched by the Dark Side
This Kiffar from Kiffex comes from a long line of law-enforcement officers, and as a Jedi, he served the Council as an investigator on numerous occasions. In addition to an almost instinctive ability to use the Force that brought him to the attention of Ki-Adi-Mundi as a child, Quinlan also possesses psychometric abilities, which let him read the telepathic residue left on inanimate objects. Master Tholme took over young Quinlan's training, which (at the insistence of the boy's powerful family) initially took place on Kiffex. Later, Tholme brought Vos to Coruscant to complete his training.
Quinlan Vos' descent into darkness—and, perhaps, back again—began with an ill-fated mission to Ryloth, where he was accompanied by his apprentice, the Twi'lek female Aayla Secura. Secura's uncle and a duplicitous Devaronian lured the pair into a trap that wiped their memories for a lengthy period, bringing each dangerously close to the Dark Side.
After he had recovered his memories and advanced to the rank of Jedi Master, Quinlan Vos turned down an order to become a general in the Clone Wars, preferring instead to maintain an underground spy network that knew him as Korto Vos, ex-lawman. When this cover was revealed to the Separatists, Quinlan Vos seemed to leave the Jedi fold and join Count Dooku. Indeed, his actions since joining the Confederacy's leader seem to have convinced even trusted friends such as Tholme, Aayla Secura, and Obi-Wan Kenobi that Vos has truly left the side of light. His ultimate loyalties are still suspect, but Quinlan Vos has cheated fate and the Dark Side before. He may do so yet again.
In the cards: Quinlan Vos (A) allows you to set aside 3 card from your deck, and play any Battle cards set aside this way as if in your hand. This ability was designed to reflect his psychometric talent, of learning things by touching objects (the object in this case being your deck).

Mike East:
whoa!! I made it onto the Michael Shelley intro!! That's the best Bday present I never would have thought to ask for!
Sat. 3/23/13 11:17am
Ken From Hyde Park:
WFMU will provide presents all day long. Just keep listening.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:18am
Mike Shelley is the gift that keeps on giving!
Sat. 3/23/13 11:19am
Wow, you guys are nearly at 104% of goal...
Sat. 3/23/13 11:19am
Mike East:
you got that right, Ken. That and a hot cup o coffee is about all I got keeping me goin today. I don't want to be at work. wah!
Sat. 3/23/13 11:20am
I'm gonna be doing laundry while working online. How utterly thrilling.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:27am
Greg from Bloomfield:
I will be spending the show pushing the limits of acceptable pajama wearing time...
Sat. 3/23/13 11:29am
Mike East:
I am green with envy, Greg. I think last Saturday I made it to almost 4pm in my PJ's
Sat. 3/23/13 11:36am
Mike East:
I was singing "I'll come running over" in the shower the other day.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:39am
There was actually a ramp-up on the laundry. I'm dogsitting for a friend who lives in an apartment building, and I had to figure out how the debit card system works. Even more thrills. I practically have a blog entry, let alone a tweet, at this point. If I did those things...
I haven't owned pajamas for about 25 years. What's wrong with me. Stinking nonconformist. Shorts suffice.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:39am
Mike East:
anyone read that article in the NY'er about Dapper Dan? I found it fascinating. Made a great analogy between him making his own fashion creations using name brands (Gucci, Louis Vuitton, etc) and hip hop artists sampling music.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:43am
I put on the pajamas after I get up. Got a 22 year old daughter in the house. And Michael, thanks so much for that brilliant Star Wars Inside Job vid.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:43am
Mike East:
I just count pajamas as the comfortable clothes that I would never wear outside my house. I don't typically even sleep in them...just have them for the time before and after sleeping.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:44am
Dang, I forgot to sign in. There, that's better.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:45am
Mike East:
that's funny, Parq. I remember my dad coming out to yell at my teenaged sister and her friends to keep it down in his tightie whities. My sister was mortified. I thought it was hilarious.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:47am
Phelger Nank:
Cage Match:
Crickets & Beatles, or
Wasp & King Bees, or
Spiders from Mars & Pink Spiders ??
Sat. 3/23/13 11:48am
Greg from Bloomfield:
To be fair, half of my "pajamas" is a WFMU "Dead Air" shirt.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:52am
Yoshimi & Pink Robots?
Sat. 3/23/13 11:53am
Sat. 3/23/13 11:54am
Phelger Nank:
There was a Japanese 'group sounds' band called Pink Spiders in the 60s, in addition to the current US garage band, so I presume the Flaming Lips were writing a rock opera about 1960s Japanese beat bands
Sat. 3/23/13 11:55am
Thanks, Phelger.
Sat. 3/23/13 11:58am
Juke Joint Jonny:
I like the lilac/magenta/white livery this morning. Spring-like and reminiscent of Easter eggs,
Sat. 3/23/13 11:59am
Dave in Woodbridge:
Phelger: agreed
Sat. 3/23/13 12:05pm
Phelger Nank:
@Dave: Word
Sat. 3/23/13 12:06pm
Coincidentally, Pheiger, they remind me of pajamas.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:08pm
David in ATL from NJ:
Thanks for landing Johnny next week, Michael! That's a treat for sure.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:09pm
Dr. Goot:
haha Moonie! Thx Michael!
Sat. 3/23/13 12:12pm
Thanks for the devil/Brian Wilson link. Whatta doozy!
Sat. 3/23/13 12:14pm
Mike East:
oh man, the combination of the show today and that Lukes Change link are making me so happy.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:16pm
Dave in Woodbridge:
Evvo at his alterna-hunkiest
Sat. 3/23/13 12:17pm
Phelger Nank:
#1 Hit! Dando is sorely underrated.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:21pm
I agree Dave in Woodbridge
Sat. 3/23/13 12:23pm
I always enjoy Cotton Eye Joe at sporting events.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:24pm
My kids just roll their eyes.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:25pm
Phelger Nank:
This is a serious Comments Board for serious music fans, not some Tiger Beat fanboy outpost. Please keep comments on-message.
He is pretty hot, though.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:25pm
Mike East:
funny, deemerdave. exact opposite for me.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:27pm
Juke Joint Jonny:
Red Nichols is a great choice after the West Street Mob. Now I can continue to do the Robot
Sat. 3/23/13 12:37pm
Gordon in Chappy:
Once again Michael you have made working on a Saturday not such a bad thing. Thanks
Sat. 3/23/13 12:39pm
Mike East:
my sentiments exactly, Gordon
Sat. 3/23/13 12:40pm
Ken From Hyde Park:
In high school, we scammed a trip to California and I saw Lefty Frizzell's star on the Hollywood walk of fame. I had never heard of him, but I thought it was a great name and took a picture of it.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:42pm
So nice, you played it twice?
Sat. 3/23/13 12:44pm
Was great hearing it 2x - thank you!
Sat. 3/23/13 12:44pm
Whoa, who was the jerks comment aimed at?
Sat. 3/23/13 12:46pm
@drr: He forgot the asterisk the first time, that's all
Sat. 3/23/13 12:47pm
Gordon in Chappy:
Darn, what did I miss?
Sat. 3/23/13 12:52pm
I'm not sure either.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:53pm
I'll assume it was just a coincidence.
Sat. 3/23/13 12:58pm
The Shoes offered an extremely polished performance
Sat. 3/23/13 1:00pm
Mike East:
ever get the feeling you've been cheated? good night!
Sun. 3/24/13 11:45am
Mr. Shelley, that Tony Joe White song was included on a 1997 reissue of TJW's first album, but it is unclear on the net just when it was recorded. However (Wiki) the first album was recorded nine months before July 1969, which means fall 1968.
That means the Monkee's/Day Tripper-ish guitar riff was derived, and might be the world's first example of a neo-Monkees (Wrecking Crew) cultural event.
Thu. 4/4/13 8:16pm
Sorry to just be catching up, MS, but if you want to explain Fountains of Wayne to someone just play them "Fountains of Wayne Hotline."

#SQLSaturday194 is coming to Exeter on the 8th – 9th March.
What is SQL Saturday? The brain child of Steve Jones, Brain Knight and Andy Warren, the founders of sqlservercentral.com the first event took places in the US in back October 2007 and since then has grown into a series of global events. Best described as a 1-day SQL Server conference held on a Saturday that is free or almost free to attend.
The good people at the SQL South West User Group have put a lot of time and effort time into planning and organising #SQLSaturdayExeter which I'm very much looking forward too and I'm sure it will be a huge success.

This training day is great value too. You can get a full day's training for £150 if you register before the end of January and £185 afterwards.

- Christian Bolton and Gavin Payne - Mission critical data platforms on Windows Server 2012
- Denny Cherry - SQL Server Security
- André Kamman - Powershell 3.0 for SQL Server Administrators and Developers
- Mladen Prajdić - From SQL Traces to Extended Events - The next big switch.
As you can see pre-cons and the people delivering them are top-notch, and I'm sure like me you'd want attend more than one. So don't miss out get your place reserved today.
To reserve your place simply follow the links above which will take you to the SQL South West User Group read the pre-con abstracts and then follow the link to reserve your place on the session you want to attend. Simple!

How many times am I going to be humiliated, shitted on?
Oddly , I feel no anger, I've come to a point of "what's new?". I'm so used to this fuckery, typical typical fuckery.
- My rent is slowly creeping up
- I need to find a new job like ASAP
- I'm pregnant
I should've just went to college . Dorm Room, Frat Party College. I wouldn't be dealing with this. I've been trying to see the bright side in all of this , but there's always something............

text: Pella, Pella Christian, Knoxville, PCM and Pleasantville all have runners competing in the state cross country meet today in Fort Dodge. The Pella Cross Country squads are feeling confident. The Little Dutch boys team is ranked number one in Class three-A while the girls moved up to number four after upending Williamsburg at the District Meet. Pella Coach Doug Cutler says both squads will be successful if they can continue to run as a team. Knoxville also heads to the class three-A State Cross Country Meet today. The Panthers will send the entire boys team and Alissa VanKlootwyk from the girl's team to Fort Dodge. Boys Coach Mike Moats says Pella…Grinnell…and Boone and Algona as the defending champions are four of the top teams in the field. He adds Knoxville has a goal of finishing in the top ten. Pella Christian coach Jocelyn Meinders is really excited about the Eagles chances at state in Class two-A today. She says if the guys can run as good as they did at Monday's District meet they should have a great day today. She says Skyler Giddings…Devin Veenstra, and Josh Meyers have been their leaders all season…but lately Jacob Dahm and others have really stepped up their times and if they can do that again today a top ten should be attainable as a team. Michaela Martin and Kim Van Zee will run as individuals on the girls side for Pella Christian and Meinders says both are certainly capable of earning top 20 finishes and possibly higher. There are a few area cross country runners competing as individuals from the area. On the girls side is Pleasantville's Delaney Jensen and on the boys from Pleasantville is Bryan Koerselman and from P-C-M is Caleb Catron…Jake Potter…and Koelten Reed. The Class two-A girls race starts at one followed by the boys one-30. The three-A boy's race starts at 12-30 with the girls race at noon. The one-A girls will run at two with the two-A boys at one-30.

And What I Think About It...
I was wondering today what I would be like if my life had turned out as I expected it to when I was a child.
I expected to have a life much like my mother's. I would marry a rancher who would be much like my dad, and I would do all the things that ranchwives do.
I would ride the pastures, work in the hayfield, run to town for parts, doctor sick calves, and back up the horse trailer.
I would keep the books, mend the knees in my husband's jeans, and bake cookies. I would fix big dinners for branding crews and hay gangs. I would make jelly from wild fruit.
If I had married one of those Nebraska cowboys whom I dated years ago, how much different would I be now?
- Would I be interested in current events?
- Would I have come to the Lutheran church?
- Would I always be going on a diet?
- Would I enjoy photography?
- Would I enjoy writing?
- Would I have more wrinkles?
- Would I own a pair of boots?
The answers are yes, I hope so, probably not as often, yes, yes, probably, and definitely.
I don't think my personality and interests would be much different. I would have worked a lot harder though. I have no doubt of that.
