#1 Well kids, it's official... I am voting after all08-30-2008, 10:34 AM
And I will support McCain.
His choice for a Veep did it for me. So far, everything I've learned about Palin is exactly what I want in a Presidential candidate. I'll take her as the Veep though and let her run against Billary in 2016.
If the old duffer McCain should pass away in office, I think Palin would make an exceptional replacement. Hell, she should lead the ticket in my view.
Anyway, I now can with some level of comfort vote for McCain. I'm not happy about him, and he still rubs me wrong, but I will vote for Palin.I like to shoot people with my CANON.

08-30-2008, 11:05 AMThis will stir up the conservatives to go to the poll's and vote Mc Cain and seal the arrogant ones doom.Paulin will become the center of a crap storm with every little liberal weenie in America sniffing around for dirt and slime to smear her with.
She will be fine,and its a major start in the right direction.If anything happens to MC Cain while in office she is there and when he leaves she will be a good spot to run on her own.She puts an end to the career of Ms. Clinton and exposes the hypocrisy of the feminist movement and the liberals big tent for woman's rights.
The far left is running around like frightened little children taking pot shots are her and
none of them are making much ground.
Their fear is obvious as the attempt to protect the anointed one from political irrelevance !
Once again the very rich anti-American West Coast and New York pro Homo ,EU/UN needs to govern America crowd has spent a ton of money and lost and Soros has fewer funds to invest in the currency Futures markets .

08-30-2008, 03:13 PMIt is extremely refreshing that we have a real Conservative on the ticket now, I am pretty much a ditto, I didn't think ANYTHING was going to happen to get me excited about this election..:)
Plus, as a cherry on top, the leftistas are collectively wetting their panties over this:DSeparated, I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me Ive divorced ~ Jesus Freak - DC Talk
Hehe, yes they are.
Oh, and this is her back in 1984... :)
I like to shoot people with my CANON.
May the FORCE be with you!
Don't sweat it. I had three people in Chicago lined up to vote twice to pick up your slack.
Now I just have to find a few folks in Florida.

The more I read about her the more excited I am about her being added to the ticket. McCain really did an amazing job picking a Veep.
Comparing her to Biden... no comparison. Wow. Obama was totally upstaged. What a miserable choice he made.I like to shoot people with my CANON.
A couple of months ago someone brought up her name here as a potential VP pick. If my memory serves me correctly, she was one person all who commented agreed would make a fine VP.
I long for the days when our President actually liked our country.

Matthew Jolly made a dream debut for Tredegar, as the 17-year-old Dragons prospect scored a hat-trick of tries in his first senior game.
The Division Two East leaders travelled to Treherbert and thrashed their hosts 61-13, with six more tries being ran in by Jamie Henthorne, Steven Knight, Darren Pearce, Daffyd James and two coming from Damian Smith.
Tredegar remain 14 points clear in the division after Bedlinog, who move into second place with Mountain Ash having been in Swalec Plate action, also recorded a bonus point win with the Foxes scoring five tries in a 32-14 victory at Llantrisant.
Builth Wells, the table toppers in Division Two West, crashed to defeat at Waunarlwydd, who were comprehensive 34-17 winners.
Waunarlwydd's three tries came from Michael Francis, Daniel Joseph and Matthew Mason, with Johnny Lewis kicking the other 19 points.
The Bulls' slip-up enabled second-place Loughor to close the gap on the leaders, requiring a narrow 10-8 win at Penclawdd to do so.
Elsewhere, two table topping clubs scored 12 tries a piece. Division Three West leaders Aberystwyth came away from Amman United with a 72-3 victory, their tries coming from Liam Thomas, Matthew Green, Iestyn Jones, Sion Summers, Gareth Jeffries, Arwel Lloyd, Jason Rees, Llewellyn Evans, Eifion Gwynne and two from Rhys Richards.

For a very long time, until I was in my twenties,I used to love the taste that mushrooms gave to a sauce but hated chewing them.So I pushed them apart in my plate and happily ate the pasta with the flavorfulsauce.
Not many varieties abounded then, mostly dried pine mushrooms, whichwere not the ones to try if you wanted to fall in love with mushrooms. As ithappened a lot in the following years, I developed my taste buds and my list ofthings to try grew exponentially with my birthdays.
The amount of dried and fresh mushrooms I findnow is large and I learned to use a few and to pair them well with otheringredients. One of my favorite pasta dishes is tagliolini (thin spaghetti)with funghi porcini, olive oil, and parsley, an Italian dish that, when wellprepared, is something to write home about.
But that´s not what I´m making today. I wanted tocook something for my hosts during mylast trip. I had bought a most extraordinary cookbook and was having a hardtime deciding. This is a vegetarian book, and though I most certainly am notone, it´s fairly accurate to say that I may go through bouts of vegetarianismif I let my desire to cook every single recipe in that book take hold of me.
The portobellos I found were huge, each ameal in itself. Dark and earthy, here they are filled with sautéed vegetablesand sun dried tomatoes, lots of them, and then they are baked with taleggiocheese on top that melts gloriously and imparts a slight piquant, creamy coverto the final dish.
It´s no surprise I loved them so much, since this is amodernized version of my growing-up flavor memories of tomatoes and cheese.
Butdon´t think you´re in for your average tomato, cheese and mushroom mix. This is nothinglike that.
from Plenty,by Yotam Ottolenghi
Serves 4
4 largeportobellos, stalks removed
6 Tbs olive oil
Salt and blackpepper
1 small onion,finely diced
1 celery stalk,finely diced
2 cups sun-driedtomatoes, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves,crushed
½ cup gratedParmesan cheese
1 Tbs choppedtarragon leaves
4 Tbs coarselyshredded basil leaves
4 oz (115g) Taleggio cheese, sliced
Preheat the ovento 350º. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the mushrooms, stalkside up, on the baking sheet and drizzle over a little oil and some salt andpepper. Put into the oven and roast for about 15 minutes, or until themushrooms begin to soften.
Meanwhile, heatup 2 tablespoons of the oil in a sauté pan, add the onion and celery and cookon low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft but notbrown; stir every few minutes during cooking. Add the sun-dried tomatoes andgarlic and cook for a few more minutes. Remove from the heat and leave to cooldown.
Once cool, addthe parmesan, tarragon and half the basil to the mixture and season with saltand pepper to taste. Careful because the Taleggio is salty.
Pile up thefilling on the whole mushrooms and top with the taleggio slices. (Return to theoven and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese melts and the mushroomsare tender.
Transfer toserving plates, drizzle with olive oil and garnish with the basil leaves.

PEACH MANGO SALSA Escape to a sun-dappled plantation and feast your eyes on a pairing of mangoes and peaches, peppers and spices …….bursting with juicy flavor and ripe for the dipping. Tuck a jar in your basket and sample the fruits of your desire |
Recipes | Chicken or Pork Sate with Peach Mango BBQ sauce I love sate, anytime, anywhere. The inspiration for this simple, yet yummy recipe came from a trip to Bali and all of Indonesia. I had sate in every form possible. The Peach Mango BBQ sauce is super pronto to make. I like taking the flavors more to the Indonesian side with a good smack of curry powder or paste (really the paste is 10,000 times better and is in the Asian food isle of the store), a good dash of sesame oil and its a done deal. Ingredients: 1 jar Peach Mango salsa 1 good scoop curry (red) paste Sesame oil: a huge dash Rum: a good dash 12+ chicken tenders, sliced pork butt, or tofu 12+ bamboo skewers soaked in water Sesame seeds: sprinkle sesame seeds over the finished sate Puree all the first 4 ingredients together in a blender…into a nice chunky paste. If you want it sweeter, then add a couple of tablespoons of brown sugar! I love the sweet grill crust this gets! Carefully thread the meat (chicken, pork or tofu) onto the moist bamboo skewer, bbq on a hot grill. HOT TIP: I like to gently spray the meat with some Pam or vegetable based non-stick spray…no stickin' or burning!…..turn to cook through..be careful not to burn the bamboo skewers…I generally either put some foil under the grilling sticks (wood part only) or hang them off the grill..make sense??….look at the photo of sate-man in Bali..you will get it! By the way, these sates cook just as well in a 350 degree oven….turn the convection on! |

Great shirt. Holds my SIG Sauer P229 really well. I've also used the shirt when working out, and I am able to carry my phone and keys easily without worrying that I will drop them.
Great concealment very comfortable. Holds weapons tight and securely against the body
The print of the weapon you are carry can be seen by the trained or un-trainded eye. This area needs a thicker outer layer to reduce printing. I hope the printing issue reduced. The holster shirt works very well with my small < titan>< /titan>CAL. 25. The 5 11 shirt work well with wallets, cell phones and is a plus in the gym. I have 2 shirts.
This shirt is definately snug. A medium semi auto fits well in the holster. Make sure you have two good arms to use to put on and take off.
I bought the black shirt to compliment my white one. Both are as expected. Prices were lower than most other sites I checked.
This is truly an amazing product. The "fit" is tight, but it helps to hold everything in place, without bothersome shifting.
Perfect. Best holster I've ever used.
Best gun concealment for any handgun. Defiantly the most comfortable holster system for your carry weapon. If you perspire get it in black.

Difference between revisions of "Jastrzębia Góra"
Revision as of 12:43, 17 September 2007Jastrzebia Gora [1] is a small town in Pomorskie in Poland. It is situated at the coast of Pommerania at a wide sandy beach. It is the most northern part of Poland and by many regarded as the most beautiful part of the Polish coast. Get in
Get aroundThe sea resort is not very big, so you can easily walk on foot or rent a bike. There are a number of bus stops around the town serving the larger town of Wladyslawowo and Puck along with the Hel Peninsula. If driving note that the main road through Jastrzebia Gora is cobblestone and quite narrow. Taxis for the resort have to come from Wladyslawowo and may not be happy if you call them out for just a short journey. Negotiate a price if travelling long distances and check with your hotel who may have a contact for a reliable taxi driver. SeeThe resort has excellent sandy beaches which can be reached after a short forestry walk. Access to the beach is very steep in some places and may not be suitable for people with disabilities. DoVisit the resort's small Oceanarium. BuyThere are very few shops in the town but many stalls selling souvenirs, clothing and beach equipment. EatThere are a number of good eating places, mostly open stalls in the summer. "Kredens" is an excellent restaurant in an olde-world setting near the park fountain. There is a pizzeria in the "Ara Hotel" centre nearby with local cuisine also. DrinkMax's Cocktail bar is a large circular thatched building looking like a South-Sea Island hut. Mainly the younger set and students here and a huge range of exotic cocktails served. No Polish beers here!. Max's Bar is open 24 hours a day.

The Europa Grill is a beach bar on the Ulitska Baltyck near the beach at the western end of the village serving food and drink. SleepAra Hotel is in the centre but may be a bit noisy at night due to disco bar below, especially in high-season.

Pike Place Market and Chihuly Glass

K and I were finally both at home and with energy simultaneously... and we got the final box out of our downstairs! We reorganized the furniture and hung pictures... and it's boo-ti-ful. A few odds and ends and clutter to find homes for still, but it's coming together so nicely!
With that huge success behind us, I thought we should celebrate! By celebrate, I mean cook at home, and by cook at home, I mean another fabulous experiment with the CSA veggies.
I've had some awesome spaghetti squash in the freezer that I cooked and made into "noodles", just like I did when we made eggplant parmesan over spaghetti squash last fall. Cooked squash "meat" keeps really well frozen if your physical squashes are nearing the end of their storage lives. Though I've found that I love my garlic sauteed rainbow chard, since I've gotten a chard bunch each week from Glacier Valley CSA, I've been wanting to try some new ways to eat it.
Born of ingredients in the fridge, my creative juices, and my husband's input, I give you a fantastic meatless meal... one even approved by K, the penultimate carnivore. To his credit, he only once suggested adding meat, and this was early in the planning stages. We added lots of cheese in homage to his Wisconsin-cheese-loving roots, and to give a nice meaty texture and earthy flavor, we added some sliced crimini mushrooms. Though the final product was a bit on the juicy side, it was fantastic... a wonderful success.
Spaghetti Squash Chard Lasagna
(printable recipe)
1 large spaghetti squash, baked, "noodled" and cooled
1 large bunch chard (ruby)
2 cloves garlic thinly sliced
4 tbsp vegetable oil, separated
1 16 oz tub cottage cheese
1 lb mozzarella, shredded
6 medium crimini mushrooms
6 Roma tomatoes, diced
1 cup crumbled feta
If you don't have frozen spaghetti squash, it's best to bake your squash ahead of time and "noodle," then set it aside to cool. It's much easier to work with when it's not scalding.
Rinse the chard, slice off the stems and slice out the center ribs and set aside; next slice the main leaves into large chunks -- about 2" wide. Slice the garlic and cook in pan with vegetable oil until golden. Just as in Sauteed Garlic Rainbow Chard, add the sliced leaves a handful at a time, until slightly wilted. Set aside. Now saute the stems until crispy. Turn off heat in pan and begin your lasagna.
In a 13 x 9 greased pan, first layer 1/2 the spaghetti squash. (While I await the unearthing of my camera charger, I sadly am limited to photos from my phone... some good... some less so. My apologies)
Next is the chard; unfurl the wilted leaves (1/2) and spread across the squash.
Add in the cottage cheese. All of it.
Repeat the squash and kale layers. Cover with the sliced mushrooms. I wanted to dig in right here without the rest of the toppings and without cooking it. It looked SO pretty with these babies.
Next, cover the sliced mushrooms with 3/4 of the mozzarella, reserving the remaining quarter for the very top. Cover the mozz with the chard stems and the diced tomatoes, finally covering the top with the mozz and feta.
Cook in preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes; if your oven cooks unevenly, cook for 25 minutes and then turn for remaining five.
Serve. Super yummy and husband-approved. The mushrooms really make this dish! Because it's a little on the juicy side, the final picture doesn't do this dish justice!

This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. (January 2010) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) |
The first female U.S. President, Sally Sheridan, (Mimi Kuzyk) is killed by a sniper during her Veterans Day speech. Her assassin narrowly escapes after a shoot out involving a shadowy figure named La Mangouste (Val Kilmer) or "The Mongoose". Three months later in West Virginia, an elderly couple discover a young man (Stephen Dorff) who lies wounded in a tree and still in his parachute. He cannot remember his past and the only clue to his identity is a numerical tattoo on his chest, "XIII".
Meanwhile, in the White House, government intelligence under Colonel Amos (Greg Bryk) is frantically conducting the search for the President's killer. With the elections just weeks away, a confirmed suspect could swing the vote for the administration. Regaining his health, XIII searches for more information about the imprint on his body using the couple's home computer. This leads to his location being picked up by the NSA and in no time at all a squad of elite special ops forces swarm the couple's house in Cape Fear. XIII takes out the soldiers one by one. While on the run in New York, he befriends Sam (Caterina Murino), a photo shop owner who helps identify for him a woman in a photo he carries.
Here he attempts to access a memory card found on his person in the hopes of discovering his identity and unknowingly initiates its tracking program. As a result, rogue secret service agents track him down at the woman's abandoned apartment, but he fights them off and escapes back to his place where La Mangouste captures him. XIII later awakens to find himself restrained inside a truck where La Mangouste demands to know who he has spoken to. He also reveals to XIII that he is also a part of the conspiracy having been branded "XII". Escaping out of his hands XIII returns to Sam where she informs him that the design on his chest refers back to the ancient Roman Empire wherein secret societies would brand members loyal to their cause. She then gives him some photos that Kim (Jessalyn Gilsig), the woman in the photo, had developed there, which convinces him to head upstate to Kellownee Valley.
Meanwhile, government intelligence has identified XIII from video surveillance as Steven Rowland and plasters his face all over the media to weed him out. He turns up at Kim's house in Kellownee Valley where she, along with her father, General Carrington (Stephen McHattie) and Jones, a CIA operative, have been waiting for him. He learns that he was a former special ops agent who underwent facial reconstruction surgery and placed undercover assuming Rowland's identity. The goal of his assignment was to flush out a group of fascists plotting a coup to overthrow the American government whom Rowland had unwittingly been recruited for. Ensconced within the highest echelons of power the conspirators run their own security agency alongside the government's.
During this time, Amos and his agents have the house surrounded and move in along with La Mangouste who fires at XIII, but misses and kills Kim instead. The only way now for XIII to get his own life back is to play bait, which is a dangerous game now since he still doesn't know who he really is. A televised presidential debate is interrupted to broadcast that XIII has been captured.
Amos has XIII wired up and tortured in order to extract a confession out of him, but his pleas that he is not really Rowland are met with incredulity. He is taken back to his holding cell and while there it is discovered from his X-rays that he has had reconstructive surgery and that his military file is classified. Inside his cell he meets another member of the conspiracy, "XIV", who attempts to silence him once and for all, but he escapes with the help of Jones. Due to Amos's incompetence, he is suspended from the investigation and President Galbrain (John Bourgeois) authorizes Calvin Wax (Jonathan Higgins), the White House Chief of Staff, to take over.
Meanwhile, XIII and Jones are transported to an NSA safehouse where Carrington reveals XIII's true identity as Ross Tanner. He shows him photos of his wife and daughter whom he lost in the Sarin Gas attacks in Chicago, which was one reason he originally accepted the mission. Carrington also reveals to him that Col. Jack McCall (Scott Wickware) had previously supervised the paramilitary unit Rowland was involved with that orchestrated the foreign attacks at home and abroad in Haditha and that he had believed that the next major target of attack would coincide with the upcoming elections.
XIII and Jones then travel to a decommissioned facility in northern Montana and here XIII witnesses McCall in a teleconference exchange with Wax and accosts him. He attempts to determine the location of the attack, but McCall commits suicide. XIII then seizes everything McCall had on hand. Back at the safehouse, he and Jones evaluate the evidence, which points to a nuclear strike on election day at a Maryland polling station and inform Carrington, who gets into a heated exchange with Amos, after he accuses him of involvement in the cover up. Simultaneously, Wax observes Amos and Carrington together, and orchestrates Carrington's arrest on suspicion of high treason.
Later, XIII and Jones research online about Jasper Winthrow, CEO of Standard Electronics, of which a subsidiary company is Stratus Dynamics, the second largest military contractor in the world. Jones mentions that Sheridan's plan to scale down America's presence in Iraq and cut billions from the defense fund would be bad for Winthrow's business. XIII then notices a logo of one of Winthrow's subsidiary companies, Ardent Glass (AG), which he recalls seeing previously. Thus, XIII and Jones travel to AG's former base in Petersburg, Virginia, where the conspirators have scheduled a meeting. He gets into a fight with La Mangouste and kills him.
Back at the safehouse, XIII identifies the people who he saw at the meeting and tells Jones he overheard them make an enigmatic reference to the location that pinpoints the target as Bethesda, Maryland. Amos then shows up at the safehouse after Carrington had sent him to find out the truth from Jones and XIII. Together they organize to thwart the plot.
XIII and Jones head to Maryland where he confronts the woman delivering the bomb and stops her.
Wally Sheridan, the assassinated President's brother, wins the national elections. XIII then confronts Wax in his office who claims that it is only the beginning before he kills himself. Carrington is released from prison and Sheridan reveals in a press conference the details of the plot and those behind it. He later meets with XIII and thanks him for his service.
However while in Japan, XIII and Jones figure out two things. One, Ross Tanner's family didn't exist; the photos were faked. Second, XIII has a final flashback; Number I wasn't Wax but Wally Sheridan. Sheridan had his own sister killed to get the Vice President into the office. He then with the rest of the conspirators, coordinated attacks that made the President look bad in order to win a landslide victory, so they can take the United States down the slippery slope into fascism. XIII, realizing they have been duped and it is not over, looks at Jones and says, "We're going back."

Critical reception[edit]
The miniseries has received mixed or average reviews from critics, and currently has a 45/100 rating on metacritic.com, based on 6 reviews. Its best reviews come from the Hollywood Reporter, who says "All in all, this isn't a half-bad political thriller."[1] On the other side, USA Today says "Poorly cast and performed (including an embarrassing turn by Val Kilmer), XIII is shot so murkily and staged so badly, you can hardly tell where people are, let alone where they're going."[2]

Feeling selfish has pretty much become my full-time job. If I'm going to be perfectly honest (let's face it, that's pretty much the only language I speak), I have two really challenging kiddos. Throughout the years, I have often looked at other 'professional child rearers' on the playground and after a quick compare/contrast of minions, have wondered how much crack mine really might be smoking on the side. My eldest daughter is like Lady Ga Ga and Richard Simmons combined (mature angst mixed with incomparable levels of movement and activity), while my youngest should have been cast in every Kevin Smith flick ever made. And even though they are polar opposites ("go go go" with "let's hang and chill"), both are extremely smart, extremely special in terms of their varied needs, and extremely loud… so I'm told, anyways.
Parenthood is never going to be easy… there is just no way around it. If I could count the number of times that people say "well, just wash your hair at night" or "just do your work while they're napping", than I would perhaps be getting enough sleep to actually count in numerical order. Aside from… I don't know, maybe sleeping?…there is just no perfect way to be a single parent. Sometimes you need to wash your hair while the kids are sitting on the bathroom floor with crayons, or do your work while they're climbing on your back, or not cook dinner than takes more than 60 seconds in the microwave (or better yet, go for cereal). In my world, there is simply no such thing as "me" time. The closest thing I've ever had to a 2-star-vacation [let alone this mythological spa day or honeymoon that people speak of], is a 10 minute bath watching New Girl on Hulu while children light small fires on the other side of the door. Don't worry, I'm at least somewhat joking.
That being said, parents are still people (and Rihanna is totally making the right decision by dating Chris Brown again. Plus, pigs can fly). If I could encourage any of us to do one thing today, it's to write down the three things that make you feel like you [the you before analyzing the array of color palettes in diaper-laden fecal matter became part of your identity], and find a way to incorporate it in to your month. If this involved smoking illegal substances or listening to Chumbawumba pre-children, than don't take my advice. Otherwise, nothing detrimental will be derived from parents who feel like satiated, challenged, excited beings… except maybe less moments of you snapping "I will not watch another episode of Shake It Up!"
So, figure out what you love to do, schedule it in and report below. I'll hold you to it if you do the same. Here are 2 of my choices…
To chase this feeling once a week. Not just as a dance teacher to earn money, or because I would always rather do the above than workout… just BECAUSE.
To write fiction once a week. Again, not to be marketable, not to be printed like my other writing… but for therapy. And one day, if I self publish and no one buys? Zero regret.
Shout Out: What do you vow to do for yourself starting NOW?

Mixing high and low in your home is one of the easiest ways to create a sophisticated space. Although balancing this mix and blending in the lower end pieces can be challenging, that balance is often the key to a beautiful space. Knowing when to splurge and when to save is different for everyone, but I've put together some tips and suggestions from my own experience that will help when planning and budgeting for new furniture and decor. It's a big undertaking to decorate a home, and when you're just starting out it's hard to know when to stay in budget and when to go over. With more options than ever for shopping both new and secondhand furniture online, it can be overwhelming to hone in on the right pieces for first-time decorators. So here are a few guidelines to consider when buying for your home, keeping the long-term in mind. –Kevin
Really good tips! I am all about splurging on the bigger items, the ones that we use every day (dining table, couch, etc.). And then saving on the little things like photos and decor.
I really enjoyed reading through these save and splurge tips. I couldn't agree more that a little paint can go such a long way. In fact, when my boyfriend and I moved into our current home (a condo we rent) I decided to paint one wall in the dining room to make it a focal point and spruce it up. It really did change the whole design of the room and give it some character.

The kid loves this -- except the suction cup doesn't work at all! Such a bummer, we don't have much use for it without the suction cup.
Best Uses
Comments about Illumination Station:
Wonderful! I bought this for travel on airplane and love the fact it can suction to surface. We tried by placing on high chair table and it fascinated my 7 month son and kept him busy until ready to eat! Great items! Nice that it doesn't make a lot of noise either! My nanny also agreed that it was a great and worked well to keep his attention.
Best Uses
Comments about Illumination Station:
Good toy at a good price. It distracts my twin infants long enough to get halfway through their meal, but then they lose interest. The Sassy high chair toy that plays music is a better option. They both love that one. This isn't a bad toy...just not as good as the musical one. But if you prefer a soundless toy to distract your little one, this is for you. The suction cup really holds the toy in place on their high chair tray too, which is a big plus.

Comments about Illumination Station:
This toy kept our very active son occupied through a whole meal at a restaurant!!! 7-12 months. Got it as a present to all my mommy friends. LOVE IT
Best Uses
Comments about Illumination Station:
My high chair is pretty basic, so I was looking for fun things to use on the tray to keep my 6 month old son occupied while I'm preparing his food. I've really liked other Sassy toys, and was hoping this would do the trick- but the suction cup does not work at all! Also, the light up feature is just OK.

The Nike Lakota has dominated when it comes to popularity in the lacrosse community. Its flawless shape and design makes it an absolute scoring machine. This head was made to not only score goals but light up the radar gun as well.
Weighing in on average at a respectable 4.8oz the Lakota allows you to shoot at high speeds with pinpoint accuracy. With a tight face and shape you get the best possible ball retention for dodging and a consistent channel release.
It has been considered one of the most ideal heads for midfielders who make a living on dodging, and is quite often used by faceoff specialists as well. The Lakota is a versatile head that enhances its flex technology for more strength and stability without adding weight. This allows the shooter to have extra torque in his shot while also maintaining great handle over the ball.
Overall this head is a thing of beauty and it is one of the leading NFHS lacrosse heads in the game.

Review by that kid (Posted on 10/25/2016)
The Lakota is more of a defensive midfield head, but for myself it is my choice as a highschool attackman. Im looking forward to all of Nikes advancements in lacrosse.
Review by Canuck (Posted on 10/25/2016)
my favorite head that i've played with, light and durable its extremely easy to string with all of the stringing holes. i even faced off with it for some time and loved it.
Review by TCIII cash money (Posted on 10/25/2016)
Amazing head, if the head ever breaks, and I could get any head it would be this one.
Review by ZachLAX (Posted on 10/25/2016)
Very good head, only thing is it is a little short.
Review by Jack the ripper (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I would recommend this head to anyone it is durable and the pointed scoop makes picking up ground balls easier
Review by Trevor Olson (Posted on 10/25/2016)
This head is perfect for middies! I am an attackman and I use it for attack also. I am not a fogo or a great face-off guy, but this head performs quite well on face offs. It is stiff for those checks and maintains it's shape. It is very durable and will definitely last for a long time. There are many stringing holes which makes that perfect pocket easily achievable. The offset is nice and provides better feel for the ball. The pinch is tight for a middie head and I love it! It provides better hold and more space to catch. The aggressive flare allows better hold from the bottom to middle part of the head. This head preforms in all areas from passes, to shots, to cradling. The overall shape is almost like the stallion and they are basically brothers. STX and Nike have truly outdone themselves on this head. Lacrossemonkey also lowered the price of this head by a good amount. So this head is definitely worth every penny.
Review by That guy (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I use it for attack, and I love it, I've used a SP, PP, Clutch, Easton Stealth, Surgeon, Evolution 2, and I like this the most, it doesn't warp whcich is AMAZING! I use it to face a good amount also and it doesn't get warped or pinch but, it does get a little bit flex.
Review by charlielax7 (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I greatly recommend this head.
Review by The Laxer (Posted on 10/25/2016)
Great head for the money.
Review by Cole (Posted on 10/25/2016)
This is the greatest head for an attackman i think. the pinch is great but not too much and it is light for such a durable head.
Review by JC (Posted on 10/25/2016)
It's cool. You would think that since Nike made it, it would suck, but it doesn't. Btw subscribe to my YouTube channel "LSULAX6"
Review by Awesome kid (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I love this head so much it's perfect for any midfielder. It has the perfect face shape for catching and shooting accuracy. definitely worth buying.
Review by Chris the Laxer (Posted on 10/25/2016)
really good head. Its a lot like the stallion but it has more of a pointed scoop. If youre a midfielder get this head
Review by bo$$ (Posted on 10/25/2016)
Very nice head. I like the pointed top, great for ground balls. But why no Carolina?
Review by Cody (Posted on 10/25/2016)

It was my first head and i love it i cant switch heads now its almost perfect
Review by Tuman lax (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I got this head at the beginning of last season and it has been amazing. It has the perfect head shape and is soo easy to string with tons of stringing holes. The head has performed amazing last season and i will be using it for the upcoming season as well. BUY IT!!!
Review by Spence (Posted on 10/25/2016)
Great head
Review by Tommy (Posted on 10/25/2016)
Best for any middies or attack men
I love this head. I have it on my D pole. The scoop is a bit weird at first but after a week it's just an insane head.
Review by lsm boi (Posted on 10/25/2016)
This is a great head for anyone who liked the pinch of the original Warrior Evo Pro, but it's a lot tougher. Stiff enough for throwing some hard checks and getting ground balls, yet flexible that I am still able to win faceoffs. The Lakota is a great buy for any midfielder/attackman looking to step up his game.
Review by Jake 'Ironman' (Posted on 10/25/2016)
i snapped my lakota flexing it trying to make it more flexible for face-offs (being a FO-GO). My fault completely. If anyone does want to use this for face-offs, I would suggest boiling the head before you string it/have it strung. Amazing head if I wasn't a face-off man i would give this 5/5 but i need something a little more flexible so i feel slightly obligated to take a little off there.
Review by Nick (Posted on 10/25/2016)
i have been using my lakota for a whole season and i just ordered another one so both my sticks can have one, use for box and field, best head ever. highly recommend over any other head.
Review by Matty P (Posted on 10/25/2016)
It is a very good head, but mine broke at the first winter practice we had. I would not get another one, there is no support at the bottom of the head.
Review by shortie (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I'm a middy and this head is amazing. Very pinched at the bottom and it can have a great channel on it if you string it right. Awesome head. Very stiff so don't buy it if you wanna use it for face offs. I love this head so much I'm going to buy another one in the near future just because I want more of them.
Review by Amurf4 (Posted on 10/25/2016)
This is a great head, it is lightweight and also sturdy. As a player and midfielder it is great. It is stiff but strings up great.
Review by spitz the mid (Posted on 10/25/2016)
im an attackmen and i have had this head for about four months and it is sick. it is really strong and is pinched at the throught and has alot of stringing holes. it is also really light.
Review by o (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I really loved this head at first it threw good, was light enough, not the lightest you can get though. But then in practice about 2 weeks after purchase there was a chunk of grass when going for a ground ball and it snapped the side wall of the head. I thought oh well I can use it with only on of the two plastic parts broken but then one week later a shot broke that last part putting me out of a head. If you don't do ground balls (no one) then get it but otherwise I don't think its the best.
Review by Pete (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I would recommend this head for attacks. If you play on wet grass or a muddy field it gets really dirty.
Review by Big Nasty (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I have had this head a while and it is still in its prime. I like the stiffness of the head but it has enough flex if you are an attack. it is also great for ground balls.
Review by sniper (Posted on 10/25/2016)
i am an attackman. i just got a volt lakota. i liked it so much i got another one. my first one broke when i checked someone, but other than that it is an amazing head. it is very easy to string because of all the sidewall holes. i currently have 2 lakotas and would buy another one.
Review by sdfghj (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I love this head! It was very easy to string and now I can pass, catch and shoot with it without any trouble. Picking out corners with this head is very easy. I play mostly attack with a little middie and I love this either way. It is a little stiff so it is not a good faceoff head.
Review by J-Will (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I got this head about two weeks ago, I dyed it and string it and it looks great. It has a great feel to it, as in the stiffness is perfect and flex is where it's needed. The one bad thing about this is it has hard and pointed scoop, this makes one hand pick ups and two hand pick ups hard, there is no flex in that area so you have to angle it lower to get a ground ball other than that it is a great head!
Review by Jake (Posted on 10/25/2016)
This head is amazing the only reason I gave it 4 because it is hard to ground balls. Overall, AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review by lax (Posted on 10/25/2016)
This head is great for gb's and has a lot of sidewall holes. I strung it up using the pocket from east coast dyes and I love it. The only thing I don't like about it is that the throat is too flexible and could be stiffer for faceoffs.
Review by Lax star (Posted on 10/25/2016)
BEAST HEAD EVER! This head is really light weight and great to use anytime. This head is all around great. You need to buy this
Review by Chris Mills (Posted on 10/25/2016)

Review by Cecil Seahawk (Posted on 10/25/2016)

its a great head
Review by cooper edwards (Posted on 10/25/2016)
These heads are sick and they string super easy. The only problem is they are kind of stiff so they crack but Nike has a nice warranty on them for that.
Review by Lakota Lover (Posted on 10/25/2016)
bottom line...buy it.
Review by laxer88 (Posted on 10/25/2016)
after about 1.5 seasons, it has cracked in one of the bottom sidewall holes from doing faceoffs alot!!

This is my favorite head. It's very versatile! I use it for face offs, midi shifts and defense. And it works very well in all of the positions.

great head. one of my favorites.
Review by burkie (Posted on 10/25/2016)
this head is a good head,but it is very stiff and i don't like stiff... if you have good stringing on this then it is a great head... i recommend a high pocket and/or an iraquois top string. This head is great for attack and defense
Review by Luke the LSM (Posted on 10/25/2016)
This head is amazing. The only bad thing is it is not very good for ground balls, too stiff. Other wise its strong easy to string etc..

This head is a great midfield head. I bought it because it was highly recommended and it really lived up to its reputation. I play midfield and I take 10 face offs a game and after 10 games it is still working perfectly.

Review by Waldo the wizard (Posted on 10/25/2016)
best head I've ever used. i have it with a traditional 6 diamond pocket.
Review by nick (Posted on 10/25/2016)
This head is great. I had been looking at the CEO, Clutch elite, Evo 4, Rabil and Proton Power heads but I am very glad with this purchase. I have it strung up with 15mm ECM with a mid-pocket and 2 straight shooters and a nylon. It has insane hold and no whip (which I like). For middies, look no further than this head. You will not be disappointed.

Easily the best head I've ever used,I use it with stringking 1x mesh and it's amazing,I regularly take face offs too and it hasn't warped yet,I would recommend it to any player
Review by Eli (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I've played lacrosse for awhile now, and this by far the best head I've played with. I strung a mid-high pocket with ECM Black and it shoots amazingly. Only problem is that it gets scoopies easily, but other than that definitely a must buy!
Review by laxbro (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I purchased this going into my sophomore year in High school and my personal say is that this head is excellent for attackmen ( keep in mind I am 6' 220 lbs) . I personally wouldn't recommend it for faceoffs because it is very stiff (considering I have played with it for 5 days a week for 3 months) and it won't quite clamp like other heads (such as a Warrior Helix, Nike Vapor, etc.) I also would't recommend it for defense, even though it is stiff, it is quite small and you can find a better head for ground balls. I have 10d Jimalax mesh in my nike Lakota, 1 straight and and 2 U's and it has the most amount of hold I have ever had in a lax head ( i own a classic Proton Power, Warrior Helix, STX Surgeon, Easton Stealth and the closest one to is is the Stealth) So if you would like a lacrosse head that will last countless seasons through torture and all weather, I suggest this head.

This is a must buy head
Review by Lax Maniac (Posted on 10/25/2016)
Is a great head. Has great pinch and a ton of sidewall holes. Looks awesome and works great with a mid high-high pocket. Lots of people say it is too stiff for face offs but I think it is perfect for them. Is a little hard too pick up GBs with but you get used to it after a while. Overall it is a great head.
Review by Moe Lester (Posted on 10/25/2016)
This is a great head that works very well. I loved it so much that I bought too. It is very easy to string and was stiff at first, but warp can be worked into it easily. My pocket has held perfectly in both of my heads and the channels both formed perfectly. I am a face-off guy and in my previous season I won 70 percent of my face-offs with this head and I couldn't be happier.
Review by Andre (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I got this head at the start of the season and it warped quickly.i am a midfielder and I wouldn't recommend this to midfeilders it is very stiff so it might be good for defense. the pinch on this head is not very good,it opens up to quickly and takes away from the hold on your stick, although it does shoot very nice.
Review by millz (Posted on 10/25/2016)
Can snipe the top corners and bar.
Review by Lacrosse player (Posted on 10/25/2016)
Great all around head for any position i used it for a year and i want another one.
Review by Ren (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I hit the wall. I play against college players and it holds amazing.
Review by LaxxBOii (Posted on 10/25/2016)
The Nike Lajkota is all around a great offensive head. I play attack and the lakota is a beast for this position. it has plenty of stringing holes and has a great face shape!
Review by Luco Probe (Posted on 10/25/2016)
One of the best heads you can find. I start middie for my JV team as a Sophomore and I dabble in face offs. This head hasn't failed me yet in the two years I've used it. A tad on the heavier and stiff side but that contributes to it's durability so I can't complain. Very smooth channel and I would highly recommend a higher pocket.
Review by Rev It Up Trev (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I use this head one my Epoch and it's a pretty good. The only downside about this head is that it's heavy.
Review by Nick aka Tyrone (Posted on 10/25/2016)
I've been using my Nike Lakota for one season of reck league. I think the Lakota is good for middie and face off.

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
The U.S. Copyright Office recently issued its exemptions to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 ("DMCA"). The exemptions, effective as of Oct. 28, 2012 define the limited circumstances that users are allowed to circumvent technology that prevents access to copyrighted works, e.g., content encryption schemes. The exemptions are reviewed and issued anew every three years, so what was allowable prior to the ruling may not be anymore, and new exemptions, primarily directed to assistive technologies for the blind, are available.
Companies that relied on previous exemptions should take heed that many are no longer lawful, and the Copyright Office affirmatively denied the universal legality of jailbreaking devices. For our complete client alert on the topic, please click here.
The following are the newly issued exemptions:
Literary works distributed electronically - Assistive Technologies: This exemption allows blind people or those with "print disabilities" to work around circumvention measures on lawfully obtained copies of an electronic book ("eBook") for the purpose of enabling "read aloud" functionality in the eBook. The only catch is that the author must be paid for the work as he or she would be if the book had been purchased through other channels. This caveat though should not be an issue for any eBook that is purchased from an established eBook seller.
Motion Pictures and Other Audiovisual Works - Captioning and Descriptive Audio: This exemption allows users to circumvent access control mechanisms to access the playhead and time codes in a motion picture or audiovisual work so that assistive technologies can be developed to render descriptions of the visual portions of the content. The exemption was made so that that visually or hearing impaired users can enjoy a lawfully obtained copy of the work.
The following are alterations to prior exemptions:
Wireless Telephone Handsets - Software Interoperability: This exemption allows users to circumvent access control schemes on cellular telephones for the purpose of executing lawfully obtained software programs that the cell phone provider has not provided (e.g., "jailbreaking" a phone). A request to extend this class of works to tablet computers was rejected.
Wireless Telephone Handsets - Interoperability with Alternative Networks: This exemption allows users to circumvent access control schemes for the purpose of "unlocking" a cell phone and using it on a network that it was not originally purchased for (e.g. purchasing a phone at a T-Mobile store and then unlocking the phone so it may be used on AT&T's network). The change in this exemption is that owners of legacy phones may still circumvent the control schemes to unlock previously purchased phones, but for phones purchased more than 90 days after the effective date of the exemption, the exemption does not apply.
Motion Picture Excerpts - Commentary, Criticism, and Educational Uses: This exemption allows users to excerpt portions of motion pictures, lawfully obtained on DVDs or online where the use is for the purposes of commentary or criticism, provided the use must also be: in noncommercial videos, in documentary films, in nonfiction eBooks offering film analysis, or in educational classes such as film study or that require close analysis of media excerpts. The alteration is that excerpts from motion pictures obtained online are now allowable.
Various Proposed exemptions that were not adopted relate to:
Various Prior exemptions that are no longer available:

text: A man who dreams of seeing the future discovers the horrible burden that it can carry in this film noir suspense story. Suicidal Jean Courtland (Gail Russell) is prevented from killing herself by her fiancée Elliot Carson (John Lund). When they consult psychic John Triton (Edward G. Robinson), he confesses that he used his powers to bring on her death. Years ago, Triton was a phony mentalist in a vaudeville act, but he began seeing genuine visions of the future, most of which portended tragic results. After a premonition of the death of his wife Jenny (Virginia Bruce) in childbirth, a terrified Triton went into hiding for five years; upon his return, he discovered that his wife had married Whitney (Jerome Cowan) shortly after John was declared dead...and she died giving birth. Years later, Jenny's child grew up to be Jean Courtland, and when Triton receives a vision of Whitney's death in a plane wreck, he rushes to California in hopes of stopping fate. However, he's foreseen a tragic future for both Jean and Whitney and is afraid of the agony that awaits them. The Night Has a Thousand Eyes was adapted from a novel by Cornell Woolrich. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

"We go to new lands," said Sepp Blatter, concluding events in the Messe exhibition hall yesterday. In front of him the Russian contingent were celebrating, an eclectic mix of Andrei Arshavin, the pole vaulter Yelena Isinbayeva, the supermodel Natalia Vodianova and a gaggle of men in suits. Russia had long been seen as the front-runners, despite their bid being largely contained on paper and stunning computer-generated images of their proposed stadiums, not least because they were perceived as the first choice of the president of Fifa. And presidents, as any Russian knows, usually get what they want.
In notable comparison to his British counterpart, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin had declined to head for Zurich for the frenetic final days of vote-chasing. In some quarters that was seen as the country's most powerful man distancing himself from a losing cause, but it turned out be nothing of the sort. His statement on Wednesday evening attacking those looking to "smear" Fifa was clearly well received by those who mattered in Zurich. Blatter made a clear reference to media attacks on his organisation during yesterday's proceedings.
Yesterday morning Putin announced that he would fly to Zurich if Russia won – when they did he was reported to be in a meeting with the country's chief rabbi. By last night he was in Zurich soaking up the glory. "Russia loves football. Russia knows what football is," he said. "The decision corresponds with Fifa's philosophy for developing football, especially in those regions of the world where that development is needed."
The vote, an overwhelming one too, is something of a gamble. After South Africa and, especially, Brazil 2014 it will be the third successive tournament in a large country and is a much riskier choice than any of its western European competitors.
The infrastructure needed is huge, but hugely in Russia's favour for Fifa is that the whole project has been assured of government funding. As yesterday's presentation – a solid effort that was bettered only by England's – outlined, the government will happily foot a very large bill to pay for the upgraded rail and road links that will join St Petersburg in the north with Sochi on the Black Sea coast nearly 2,000 miles away.
Only two of the 16 stadiums exist, and both the Luzhniki – which hosted the 2008 Champions League final between Manchester United and Chelsea – and Dynamo stadiums in Moscow will be redeveloped. The others will be built from scratch and the images in the impressive brochures are spectacular. The final will be held in the Luzhniki in front of 89,000 supporters.
Fifa's inspection team, which had placed England above the winners, warned that large-scale construction would have to start immediately, but the Russians have brushed off suggestions that they will struggle to complete the project in time. "It's a big plus for us to start from scratch," claimed Andrei Kanchelskis, the former Manchester United winger.

VIRAL LOADSMay 1, 2000 DR.A HEALTHY PERSON HAS 500 TO 1,500 CD4 IN THE BODY. WHAT IS THE # VIRUS IN THE BODY FOR THE PERSON TO HAVE AIDS. |
Response from Dr. HolodniyI am not sure what you are asking. An AIDS definition requires a CD4 count of <200 or 14%, and/or the development of an opportunistic infection. A definition of AIDS is unrelated to the viral load. Every person has a different "set point" or level of viral load, and this depends on the virus type and underlying immune system of the person.
