Hi Everyone,
Sorry for the longtime silence, just a lot going on between planning a big event, working mermaid parties, as well as personal health issues. But unfortunately already 3 weeks into the new year and I get work that my Uncle died at 79 from a bad bout of the Flu. Its been a struggle with my moms family since my mom was made the one, to handle all the arrangements and her siblings want to manipulate her to do what they want. Its just been an overall few days of arguments etc.
I could use some cheering up right now. tell me some fun stories or share silly things if you like. Just need to get my headspace out of what I've been helping my mom deal with the past few days. I'm also running a gofundme to help my mom with some funeral expenses and rent a casket for my uncle's wake: https://www.gofundme.com/help-us-pay...-uncles-casket if you want to donate even $1.00 it would be forever appreciated. If not Its okay, but if you want to share it along, please do.
Thanks for reading. Love you all

The second of Chrissy's writing challenges was to …
"Ask three people, on line, on the phone or in person what their favourite onomatopoeia is. Write a short piece with these three words in the text."
So the words I eventually ended up with are… sizzle, trickle, drizzle, purr and clunk…
The guy in the park had been less informative than I had expected. He had done little more than tease me with the short interchange we had shared, then invited me to join him at a group of which he was part. He gave me a card, that was more like a tarot card than a business card and said he hoped that he'd see me at the group the next evening. At the time I took hardly any notice of his card and shoved it in my pocket with little more than a quick glance. From it I learnt that his name was Dane Slagskygge and that the group, which he had already told me, was 'From the Shadows'.
Walking to the park, and sitting in the sunshine had raised my mood slightly, but the encounter with Dane and now the drizzle that had started out of nowhere had pushed me back down. The words from my waking dream were back with a vengeance and running round in my head. They had returned as an intrusive repetitive purr but were gaining strength. A migraine wouldn't be far away.
As I trudged homewards the sky darkened even more. It was clear a storm was coming. I was now wishing I had put on a warm coat instead of the shades that were now surplus to requirements. The rain had started to trickle down my neck wetting my collar and my shoes were soaking up the water as it settled in small puddles.
Instead of rushing home and getting a complete soaking I decided to duck into the cafe I sometimes went to for breakfast. Looking through the window I could se that I wasn't hte only one caught out by the suddenness of the change of the weather.
I pushed the door open making the bell above it jingle. It was such a traditional greasy spoon type cafe. There was a low murmur of conversation but the dominant sound that grabbed my attention was the sizzling of the grill from which the smell of bacon wafted across the room assaulting my nostrils. I moved towards an empty table and took a seat on the bench along the side wall.
" You're late today. The usual?" Belle, the waitress asked as she sidled up to me with a coffee jug in her hand. She was easily old enough to be my grandmother but as spritely as a teenager, and so much more pleasant. She placed a mug on the table in front of me.
"Fill her up," I told her pushing the mug towards her. "And yes the full veggie."
"A man of habit," she commented as she filled the mug. "Bad day today?"
"Again," I replied. She instinctively picked up on my demeanor.
She knew me well and instead of offering some pointless platitude simply tilted her head signaling her understanding, giving me a wink at the same time. She grabbed my shoulder as she returned to the kitchen.
Beside me on the bench there was a damp newspaper. I didn't usually read the news, finding it all too depressing, but something about the headline had caught my eye. I picked the paper up and shook it out to read the article. I was just a few words into the story when there was a loud clunk on the table. I looked up from the paper slightly startled, but it was only Belle with my all-day breakfast.
She was normally a seen and not heard kind of waitress, unless you were looking for conversation. Then she could talk the hind legs off the proverbial donkey. I looked up from the plate to her. For just a moment she had a blank look on her face.
"Don't go," she whispered. Her face changed as if registering where she was after a long sleep.
"I've only just got here," I half-joked away the awkwardness.
"I know, love. More coffee?" She asked brightly. It was clear she had no recollection of what she had just said.
I nodded and as she moved away looked back at the article I had been reading. 'What the hell is going on?' I asked myself under my breath.

Offroad Frosted White Dry a month or so ago and figured that V2 would be releasing more "White Dry" portions. The Frosted brand name is growing - in the past I've written about Offroad Frosted, Offroad Frosted White Dry, Thunder Frosted Christmas, Thunder Frosted Extra Strong Original Portion, Thunder Frosted Los, Thunder Frosted Long+, Thunder Frosted Mini+, Thunder Frosted Ultra Strong, and Thunder Frosted Ultra Strong White. There are definitely a lot of "Frosted" products in the V2 lineup.
product description for Frosted Extra Strong White Dry says, "Thunder Frosted White Dry Extra Strong - strongly reduced moisture and therefore lower weight - but full flavor and hit! Only 18% moisture - resulting in a 27 mg/g nicotine content. "Frosted" is the most popular snus flavor there is!" I know that nicotine content may be intimidating, so let me break it down.
Nicotine - 27 mg/g
18 portions
11.7 gram can can weight
Each Portion - 0.65 gram
Nicotine Per Portion - 17.55 mg/portion
So it's not quite 27mg/g of nicotine, it's closer to 18mg/g of nicotine. When you open a can of Thunder Frosted White Dry Extra Strong, the aroma that comes through is a strong, fresh smell of spearmint. The portions are a little dry so they aren't extremely comfortable at first, but once they get more moist they feel better in the lip. There's a nice cooling sensation that comes on and the spearmint flavor is mild at first, but grows the longer you have the portion in your mouth. It doesn't get as strong in flavor as regular Thunder Frosted, but the flavor is still very good! One thing I really like about these white dry portions is how long you can use them. I was able to keep a portion in for up to an hour and a half and still have the flavor of the snus remain.
product description says, "Thunder Frosted White Dry Ultra - strongly reduced moisture and therefore lower weight - but full flavor and hit! Only 18% moisture - resulting in a 42 mg/g nicotine content... do you dare? "Frosted" is the most popular snus flavor there is!" I know that nicotine content sounds intimidating, so allow me to break it down.
Nicotine - 42mg/g
18 portions per can
11.7 gram can weight
Each Portion - 0.65 gram
Nicotine Per Portion - 27.3 mg/portion
Regular Thunder Ultra Strong snus comes in at 21mg/g, so this one being 27.3 mg/portion makes this the strongest snus on the market. When you open a can of Thunder Frosted White Dry Ultra Strong, the spearmint aroma is more sharp and present than in the Extra Strong Frosted. Being a white dry, as the portion becomes more moist it gets more comfortable in the lip. This snus has a nice little tingle and cooling sensation that comes on pretty quick. The spearmint flavor is mild at first, but as the portion gets more moist it builds and becomes more present. This snus is strong. I don't do a lot of strong portions so for the portions of this one I reviewed I kept them in for about 30 minutes before I had to take them out. If you enjoy strong snuses I would assume you can keep it in longer. But this one definitely made my head spin, hella strong stuff.
If you like spearmint and white portions, I'd definitely suggest giving these a try. I like the way the flavor develops, it allows you to enjoy the snus a lot longer than regular white portions. Also, if you're somewhere where snus is taxed based on weight, this is a great way to save money!

All good things.
Regina Lord is my Artist crush right now and this is from week 3 of her class. I highly recommend this class . I am so excited by her work. Its so colorful and beautiful.
I highly recommend finding your passion. My girl friend told me the other day that she really does not have anything she is crazy passionate about.. WHAT !!!! I told her you need to try doing things your are interested in. If your keep trying you will come across that thing that makes you crazy happy inside.
Some times outside our comfort zone lies our passion and its up to us to find it.

Well, you pups are just going to have to hurry and eat all that doggie food until you get to the bottom of the container in order to get the cup out.
Yes, we've been spoiled with all the nice warm weather we've had this Fall. We are worried that it will be a long winter this year. The last two winters were fairly mild, so we're overdue.

Plea for serious thought to Musharraf's proposals
Mufti Mohammad Sayeed has asked the Centre to give "serious thought" to fresh proposals put forth by Musharraf, reports Arun Joshi.india Updated: Dec 07, 2006 13:54 IST
Peoples Democratic Party Patron and former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed has asked the Centre to give "serious thought" to fresh proposals put forth by the Pakistan President Parvez Musharraf on Kashmir solution.
"That would lay the basis for making a beginning for the peaceful resolution of the Kashmir problem," and stressed that it was imperative "simply because the cost of not doing it will be much higher than the cost of doing it," Mufti Sayeed told External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee in New Delhi Thursday morning, according to a spokesman of the PDP.
PDP sits as a major partner in the ruling coalition in Jammu and Kashmir.
Mufti Sayeed, who on his return from the United Nations, where he had gone as head of the non-official Indian delegation, found an echo of his thoughts that the atmosphere in India and Pakistan was conducive for resolution of Kashmir issue, in the fresh set of proposals of Pervez Musharraf.
Pakistan president has effectively thrown out all the traditional tenets of Islamabad on Kashmir- Plebiscite under the UN resolutions from Islamabad's Kashmir solution text book since 1948, provided India agrees to staggered demilitarization and self governance under joint supervision of both India and Pakistan. Musharraf has also clearly rejected the option of independence for Jammu and Kashmir.
Most of these points are part of the PDP's self rule in Jammu and Kashmir.
Mufti Sayeed related the proposals to the international perception about Jammu and Kashmir in the back drop of the current situation in the subcontinent - an overwhelming mood of reconciliation in the state especially after the resumption of composite dialogue between India and Pakistan since January 2004.
Sayeed told the External Affairs Minister that "he operational challenge in Jammu and Kashmir is to establish innovative institutional arrangement that will have political, economic and security character."
"Our basic premise is that the search for a peaceful solution to the Jammuand Kashmir issue could be possible only by giving the institutional arrangement both a political and economic basis," he said.
"instead of allowing the borders to become a barrier to the movement of people, commodities and capital, we must allow the markets to override the dividing lines."
Sayeed said due to historical reasons, the entire state of Jammu and Kashmir remains an important political, though not an economic, partner of both India and Pakistan. "This fact can be attributed mostly to the legacy of partition," he said and added: "even as political significance of Jammu and Kashmir is paramount for both, New Delhi and Islamabad, the economic links between India and Jammu and Kashmir and Pakistan and Pakistan Administered Kashmir are limited. Sayeed said time has come that India and Pakistan work out some form of an institutional arrangement and move forward."
"Even though the arrangement design may appear to be constitutionally and legally incomplete and politically premature, a beginning has to be made," he emphasized. The PDP Patron said in view of the emotional surcharge, a one-point-one-time solution for resolution of the problem is a near impossibility.
"What is required is a sequence of measures, which would resolve the situation," he said and added that a step-by-step practical approach is needed for the extrication of the State from the tragic muddle. "But it should not be a matter merely of atmospherics, substantial progress should be made on the ground as well," he maintained.
Sayeed said the aim should be, not going into the complexities of history and geopolitics, but instead, shifting the focus to more practical policy-oriented discussion of a possible solution to the Jammu and Kashmir issue for which PDP's self-rule formula provides a sound basis.

Neighborhood Pub Crawl: Historic Larimer Square
As Old West stories go, they don't get any older or more Western than Larimer Square in Denver. Founded by a group of the city's original settlers during the Gold Rush, Larimer has existed since 1858. As a place run by prospectors, solders and cowboys, Larimer had its share of saloons and dance halls. Over 150 years later, that hasn't changed a bit. Covering an area of only 142,000 square feet, it also makes for a very self-contained pub crawl. Let's take a drinking tour of historic Larimer Square.
Comedy Works
This is one of country's oldest, most successful comedy clubs, opened in 1981. It is also a favorite performing haunt for national acts like Dave Chappell and Joe Rogan, so Denverites can expect a steady stream of national comics along with up and coming hot shots. With two to three shows across six nights a week, visitors can also schedule their bar crawl around performances. Consider the early show as a funny happy hour or choose the closer to cap off the night. The two drink minimum is no joke. (1226 15th St.; 303-595-3637)
Corridor 44
Champagne rules at Denver's only champagne bar. Sip on a selection of bubbly that numbers in the dozens, from the simple to the sublime and even rare bottles. Pair with seductive foods from oysters to chocolate truffles to lamb chop lollipops. (1433 Larimer St.; 303-893-0044)
The Crimson Room
Located behind an intriguing red door, The Crimson Room is where Denver's elite meet. Larimer Square's true red carpet event center, the bar features Swarovski crystal pendant lighting and a 31-inch gold flecked Cambria Quartz bar. Guests can also become members with bottle service, VIP access and a concierge. Dress code required. (1403 Larimer St.; 720-693-6987)
Cru Food & Wine Bar
The crew at Cru offers over 300 bottles of wines and over 40 premium wines by the glass. Happy hour here is called "Relax and Un-Wine" Hour Monday through Friday from 4 to 6:30 PM. The food menu is inspired by Napa Valley, but the atmosphere is completely Colorado. (1442 Larimer St.; 303-893-9463)
Euclid Hall
Beer is king at Euclid Hall, where 13 taps pour the finest craft from around the world. Canned and bottled beers are divided into categories ranging from Arithmetic, easy-drinking session beers, to Trigonometry, more complex beers, to Quantum Mechanics, beers over 7% ABV. The bar also features world-class pub food including house-made sausages and schnitzels. (1317 14th St.; 303-595-4255)
Green Russell
The Green Russell has no sign on the door and an interesting entrance. The entrance is inside Wednesday's Pie Shop in underground Larimer Square. Wednesday's Pie Shop is a real pie shop that sells pie only on Wednesdays starting at 11 AM. The Green Russell, however, is open daily at 5 PM. The bartenders at GR are considered the best in Denver, so just pass through the pie shop to get to the best cocktails in town. (1422 Larimer St.; 303-893-6505)
Maloney's Tavern
Maloney's is Larimer Square's neighborhood bar. Enjoy a variety of draft beer and pub food in a relaxed and fun atmosphere with pool tables, dart boards and TVs. (1432 Market St.; 303-825-1990)
Mynt Mojito Lounge
Mynt brings a sexy Latin flare to Larimer Square. As expected, guests will find a variety of mojitos here and they are available by the pitcher as well as the glass. Enjoy a Latin-flavored small plate menu to go with all those mojitos and martinis. (1428 Market St.; 303-825-6968)
Chef Troy Guard's original Denver restaurant, TAG has been pleasing both diners and drinkers since it opened a few short years ago. While TAG's claim to fame is its world-mix menu, TAG prides itself on serving drinks just as delicious and well-crafted as the food. Current specialty cocktails include the Mead of Thor made with Leopold Bros Apple Whiskey, Amante Picante using Tequila and the Poinsettia Flip with Dolin Genepy Des Aples. (1441 Larimer St.; 303-996- 9985)
Denver's largest selection of fine tequilas is under Tamayo's roof and along with all that agave are some fine margaritas as well. There are 100 tequilas, mezcals and other agave-based spirits to choose from. Tamayo also has one of Denver's best views which you can see on the western facing rooftop patio. (1400 Larimer St.; 720-946-1433)
VIE Luxe Nightclub
Just opened in December, VIE is Denver's new sophisticated nightclub featuring state-of-the-art sound and lighting systems and some aggressive cocktails. Find the city's best DJs pumping out a mix of dance and techno. (1427 Larimer St.; 720-256-0010)
NOTE: While it has not become reality yet, Larimer Square is working with the city to become a "Common Consumption" area, much like downtown Greeley. That simply means you can carry your beverages with you from bar to bar on the sidewalk. Stay tuned to Drink Denver for progress on that front.

text: I've been a paper scrapper for years, and I have WAY too many supplies-don't believe me? Ask any member of my family! Anyway, so I get super excited when I get to combine digital and paper which equates to hybrid scrapping! As I said earlier this week-or this weekend, I was going to make a Sonic nameplate gift for M's teacher. Well I did, turned out super cute! I loaded it with some notecards, etc. Here it is! Thank you Kari for doing these name plates! I see SO many uses for them in the future...plus it totally gives me an excuse to drop by Sonic for happy hour! (If Sonic knew the free publicity we are giving them!)

please let me know if I just had a psychotic episode or this is a prank
so i'm walking back a long road (i'm the only person on it) from the train station and some young lass, maybe 22, is in the passenger seat of a car going by with the window rolled down. she looks at me, smiles and waves.
10 seconds later a young man, maybe 29, flashes his lights at me, slows down to lean out the window and wave at me while smiling.
by this point i'm panicking
here's the kicker
10 seconds later, a woman, maybe mid 30s, in a red car goes past me, looks at me, smiles and waves at me.
all of this happened within 30 seconds or so. I might be losing my mind. pretty freaked out. but then I thought about it more. could it be possible that one of the normie radio stations like radio 1 had a little normie prank game on they were urging people to wave at everyone that goes by? I could have sword I saw the man that waved at me 2nd, waving at the first girl as they crossed eachother opposite directions but idk
can anyone confirm any oh so hilarious radio activity? I've searched twitter for "waving", had a look at the radio 1 page and the page of the local station and didnt really find anything. the local station page has a post about today being the happiest day of the year though whatever that means, maybe that?
please tell me I haven't fully lost it. I'm not ready
sworn* not sword
you've had an episode
sorry you had to find out this way :(
Perhaps you were just looking really good today
Or you were on fireLo-Pan this'd this
- RFWare this'd this
You've been
dead for 15 years. All the police found was a scratched car, a small stain of blood and a hook hand car in the car door hook.
maybe you're famous?
maybe you're declan donnelly.
haven't pissed since I got in
just checked and nope it's up
and I was wearing a white shirt and black work trousers
can't find anything weird on me
"a long road (i'm the only person on it)"
dogging hotspot.
you just missed out on spaffing your nutsludge into the lap of a bored suburban lass whilst her fella and three other snared pedestrians watch on, cock on hand.
near miss/lost opportunity
I'd say it's definitely a radio thing
As they were all in cars. Sounds a bit like a Limmy sketch too. I was standing in my doorway the other day in a black dress talking to my mum. A van/small truck drove past and backed into a street to turn around. When it came past a young man had his head totally looking at me and smiling as they drove past. Another car had the driver turn towards the house and look soon after even though he was driving straight onward.
Basically this is all actually happening cause we're magnetic human beings.

Success the Best Answer for Dom Capers
Dec 7, 2009
By Lori Nickel, Journal-Sentinel
As soon as Mike McCarthy brought Dom Capers to the NFL's northern outpost 11 months ago to redirect the Packers defensive charge, the questions followed.
Would Capers be able to pull off the transformation to a new scheme with a bunch of veterans built and trained for the old scheme?
Could he do it quickly for the Packers to become a playoff contender again? Could he plug rookies in key positions?
There were a lot of questions, but one person might have reassured Packer Nation.
Bill Polian is a five-time NFL executive of the year, an award he won with three different franchises. With his eye for talent, he built teams that contended for the Super Bowl in Buffalo and Indianapolis.
When he decided to take on the general manager position for the Carolina Panthers in their 1995 expansion year, he envisioned only one guy to head the whole operation: Capers.
He pulled the defensive coordinator away from the Pittsburgh Steelers, where opponents stayed out of the end zone more than anywhere else, and turned over the keys to his new franchise to the workaholic Capers.
"I'm not sure that there's anybody, including Dick LeBeau, who plays that defense, who puts it together in a game plan and calls it, as well as Dom does," said Polian. "He had a terrific vision for what he thought the team could be, and what he wanted it to be and a terrific grasp for how he wanted to play defense.
"We built the team right along according to Dom's blueprint and it worked out great."

It would be so easy to dismiss Jack Goes Boating, an adaptation of the Robert Glaudini play in which Philip Seymour Hoffman originally starred in New York, as standard quirky-for-the-sake-of-quirkiness Hoffman fare: All of the Sundance-baiting elements are in place, from first-time director and star Hoffman's Jack dabbling in Rastafarianism to his desire to learn how to swim to the score by Grizzly Bear, which is peppered with tunes from Cat Power and Fleet Foxes. There's even some reliable sexual dysfunction, with Jack's love interest, Connie (the lovely Amy Ryan) recovering from a violent encounter with a subway pervert, and Jack's best friend, Clyde (breakout co-star John Ortiz), dealing with being made a cuckold by his lonely wife, Lucy (Daphne Rubin-Vega).
But there's a massive heart within Jack Goes Boating to be dealt with before the eyes cynically roll, and it's confounding. Ultimately, the film is uplifting in a way that I haven't experienced at a movie this year.
The people in Jack's life want only the best for him. Clyde and Lucy are emotionally intelligent and accommodating toward Jack without ever stepping into condescension. Clyde teaches him how to cook and Lucy hooks him up with a chef (who happens to be her former love) to help Jack prepare a feast for his newfound crush. Jack, unlike so many indie quirkfest's protagonists, wants to grow. He yearns to become a better person and he's willing to spend long hours doing so. In return, Ryan's Connie is patient and understanding with him.
So where's the drama? It's a question I found myself asking as well throughout the first half, and one that's answered at a fateful dinner party, a weed-aided lovefest that inevitably serves as the setting for a variety of long-bubbling issues to boil to the surface. It's messy and often violent, but the film presents it as entirely necessary, and we believe that. Luckily, Hoffman and Glaudini navigate the terrain with aplomb, gently guiding the narrative toward genuine resolution, rather than awards-hungry theatrics.
I can't say enough about this film's knowing sense of conflict; Jack and Connie's pivotal sexual moment toward the end is imbued with such experience and nurturing that it tells us how the filmmakers involved must have gone through their own highs and lows to arrive at such an honest conclusion. It's the first happy ending I've seen in an indie film in a very long time that feels so earned and so transcendent.

The news is dominated by the Michael Owen contract talks, and we expected today to get some reports that Michael Owen has rejected Newcastle's contract offer, and we have not been disappointed, as the Daily Mail took the bait.
Joe Kinnear – will "fight like hell" to keep Michael at Newcastle
Bad news is good news for newspapers, as you may already have guessed, and that's what sells, so we are not at all surprised this morning to see headlines that Michael Owen has turned down Newcastle's offer.
Is it true? We have no idea, but we think we know as much about that happened in yesterday's meeting as the Daily Mail does – nothing.
The Daily Mail says Michael has told his Newcastle team-mates he is hoping for Liverpool, Manchester City or Everton to make him an offer he just cannot refuse.
Well if that's true, then it tells us Michael is more interested in the money than playing for Newcastle United, so that would be fine with us, if he moves on in the summer.
Manager Joe Kinnear has done some terrific work since he arrived on Tyneside, and out of the football management wilderness, but Joe is getting some good reports from people outside Newcastle, for the good job he is doing at our club.
If Joe leaves Newcastle in the summer, and continues with the kind of results Newcastle deliver, like last Sunday at Portsmouth, he will be snapped up by some football club, and very quickly, that's for sure.
They've seen how he took on a disoriented and beaten Newcastle squad and he has transformed the team in front of our very eyes.
Joe is nothing if not down to earth and very straight, so what does he say about the Michael Owen?
"I will fight like hell to keep him at Newcastle."
We'll we hope Joe does that and can persuade Michael to stay on Tyneside, but we'd like Michael to freely make the choice to stay, and if he has doubts, we'd rather he moves on, quite honestly.
What do you think about all of this?
Comments are very welcome, but please keep the language clean and respectful of others – thanks.
51 comments so far
Well im more optimistic of him signing now the Daily Mail claim that he won't sign.
Ive never 'read' a more anti-newcastle paper. Every week they have a made up story that isnt true.
It says that Owen 'told team mates'. So they are claiming there sourse is a newcastle player who went to the daily mail then? Butter Ollocks!
maybe that true Ed…Owen did it at childhood his club Liverpool so I wont be suprised if he is going to repeat that again. So far he hasnt tell whether he has any plan to stay here if not we can make an offer which would make him stay here. Right now the problem is not the offer but Owen's intention
i dont think owen would leave only for money……
what he did with liverpool, he was one of the best striker in the world…. and was an automatic selection for england…..
the time has changed he is behind rooney, abgonlahor, defoe and even bent i dont think he would be leaving us for man city and warm benches it is not going to help his international career
his best option is newcastle
after that spurs/portsmouth depending on where defoe would go…..
Owen gets fit, scores goals, gets injured, gets fit, etc etc for the last few years. He probably won't get a better offer at around the guessed at £90,000 a week with extras ashley has on the table. At least now that everyone knows we can't actually get new owners due to the financial state of the world we should move forward with Ashley protecting his investment – it's not like a store where customers come through in lesser amounts that devalue its worth, the value of NUFC if relegated would plummet, so he HAS to invest in keeping players and bringing in new ones.
"Owen has told hes teammates that hes waiting for City, Liverpool or Everton to make an offer" – Not a chance that the Captain of our team should tell hes mates something like that!
IF Owen leaves I dont think it would be for the money, moore like comming to a club in better state then the mess were in..
I can't stand the Ashley regime but I have to say that the offer made to Owen seems a very fair one, longer and for more money than any of the pundits who think they know it all had predicted. Indeed a big enough offer to blow all but the very top clubs out of the water (not that they aren't still printing up Wigan's bid for England's finest!). I'm pleased to see it and credit to Joe, as I doubt Ashley would see sense on his own.
Cant see City signing him and they are our main threat, they have Robinho, I think they would rather sign another more imposing striker, so Owen will also know if he goes there he is more likely to be used as a sub in a rotation over the next 3 or 4 years, not good for his England hopes.
We have a fighting chance to keep him.
Honestly…where the hell would he go? No bigger team than ours wants him and no one smaller than us can afford the wages. His best bet is to stick with us but at the same time we will most likely have a new owner and a new manager this time next year. Not really worth signing unless there is nothing more solid. It is a really tough decision for michael I think. Who knows what his advisors are telling him but I dont think he will get a much better offer from anyone but Man C. If he goes anywhere it will be there.
Howay50 I would be dead against the sale of Zog to Villa or anywhere else. His form runs hot and cold – but he is a player unlike milner- that is very gifted technically and will develop further with the right guidance.
Villa is the team de jour but is it really sensible to leave the toon to go there… it's just a matter of time before Abgonlahor and Young leave for Manure or Chelsea and they return to mid-table where they belong.
Also credit to Joe's common sense to wrap up Butt's contract without waiting for him to play the last 4 games which guarantee him an extension. This is simple good management, will make Butt feel appreciated and get the thing sorted efficiently.
– It is also so unlike the Newcastle we have come to know in recent Shepherd/Ashley years.
Whether it's true or not.
Why should we bend over backwards to try and pay off someone to stay who clearly doesn't. He's supposed to be our captain, another thing which was hopped to sweeten the bargain) who's all ready getting a ridiculous wage. Why should we break the bank for him when he's not really worth any more.
Someone suggested that we would get 20 million, I'd expect a wee bit less, 10 million maybe. He's not worth what he was anymore, not even near it.

Editor's Selections: Mapping our microbes, Lyme disease in flight, and when ovaries become testesDecember 18th, 2009 Editor's Selections 119 Comments
Vincent Racaniello selects several notable posts each week from molecular and cellular biology and virology. He blogs at virology blog.
- Bacteria outnumber cells of the human body by 10 to 1. A survey of 27 sites reveals amazingly diverse microbial communities that are defined by their location on the body.
- Lyme disease is associated with mammals, but birds can also infected by black-legged ticks that carry the pathogen. Birds may play a role in expanding the range of both the Lyme bacterium and its vector.
- Ovaries can only remain ovaries by constantly suppressing their ability to become male. Silence a single gene, and adult ovaries turn into testes.
I'll be back next Friday with more selections.

Have you ever heard of the Marvel Method? Supposedly, it was a once popular means of comic book production where, essentially, the writer(s) would conjure a basic concept. An artist would then draw a more or less complete book. After the fact, the script writer would drop in bits and pieces of dialog and narration. The upshot of this process was that comics, as a visual medium, excelled at spectacle and led with their looks. In this way the illustrator can take charge and determine much of what defines an issue, a run, or an entire character history. However, the artist needs to be a talented storyteller and designer to make the most of this method. I can't claim to understand how the sausage that is Street Fighter Unlimited gets made. But some of the book's weaknesses seem to be born out of an "art first" approach. There's just isn't much narrative to speak of.
The villainous messiah Gill is one aspect of Street Fighter that loses a bit in the transition from game-based foe to comic antagonist. It is almost entirely impossible to take Gill seriously. Through (mostly) no fault of the artist, Gill is a laughable menace. He's painted half-blue and half-red, split down the center of his mostly nude body. He wears his golden hair like a 70s disco god. And his dialog is so unsubtle in its religious fervor one can't help but wait for a punch line that never comes. One thing I will criticize the artist Joe Ng for on this front is the absurd, inaccurate musculature wrapped around Gill's body. I know the guy is meant to look powerful, and I know he isn't exactly human. But the oblique muscles on abs on lats on... unidentifiable lumps look strange beyond the character's basic design. At one point Gill seems to flex his clothing off before bumping a space rock like a volleyball. It is very silly. Ng's probably dealing with the twin limitations of the source material and the UDON house style, trying to give us an intimidating figure. And to his credit, he's a gifted illustrator.
In issue two we get our obligatory fight -- this time featuring the businessman/boxer Balrog. Ken, in a sign of personal growth, defeats the knuckle-headed brawler before actually meeting with him, and without throwing a punch. But, the title of the book demands fisticuffs. And so Balrog submits to the will of the Street by flying into a blind rage. At times the action here is a little difficult to follow. It flows well enough without wasting space, though.
I wish Street Fight Unlimited's team had more freedom to explore character relationships and designs. However, they are bound by the constraints of the license more than restrictions of talent.
Score: 3/5
Street Fighter Unlimited #2 Writer: Ken Siu-Chong Artist: Joe Ng and Jeffrey Cruz Colorist: Espen Grundetjern Publisher: UDON Entertainment Price: $3.99 Release Date: 1/20/16 Format: Ongoing; Print/Digital

Please make sure your yoga clothing isn't see through!
Class was about to start yesterday a guy came in a set up right in front of me. I know this bothers some people, they get all grumpy and irritated about it. Whatever, I just moved my mat over so I could see a sliver of myself. Then he bent over to move his over a bit… and through his black underarmor underwear/biker short things I could see his entire butt. The whole crack, even a couple of moles. BLEH!!! I've always wondered about this outfit for men: underwear or actual shorts?
Naturally, when it came time to stagger with our neighbor for standing separate leg stretching, I have to step up to the top of my mat and my mole-butt buddy steps to the back of his mat. Then it was time to bend down while looking forward. I didn't. I know however I got down looked funny because the teacher giggled and smiled at me. She probably thought I didn't like it when I can't see myself…. not that I don't like butts I can SEE in my face!
Dear all yogis, give your costume a good check over before practicing. I always give clothes the downward dog and standing bow check.

I'm sort of sick. My head hurts, my nose leaks mucus as if it's a leaky faucet (wasted an entire roll of tissue during QUATECH) and I'm generally just feeling weak. Yesterday I played my first game at Villamor and I noticed I was definitely not feeling well. I don't have a fever yet though, which is good news. It's a busy time right now.
On a side note I am glad I'm now part of the DLSU Pops Orchestra's marketing committee. Finally got into the org I've dreamed of entering since high school. The people have been nice so far and I love hearing these gifted musicians jam along. I kinda wish I could learn a bit of drumming from the "masters" while I work there.
There's a mad rush for yearbook writeups because most of us just decided to get working on it at the last minute, ha ha ha. That includes me too. Heheheh.
