[edit] Fumio Manaka
Fumio Manaka, now Unsui-sensei to those in his organization the Jinenkan, was once the leading practitioner of the Bujinkan Dojo.
He began his studies of Budo when he was a teenager in mandatory Judo classes. It was through this he was introduced to Soke Masaaki Hatsumi who he was told was a ninja master. He went to Soke's home everyday for training, though for a year he was thrown around the dojo repeatedly. Finally as many of the other students drifted away he was the only one left and was eventually joined by many others who now train with Soke still.
In 1996 Manaka-sensei decided to leave the Bujinkan and start his own organization teaching his own interpretation of the Takamatsuden arts. Thus the Jinenkan was formed.

[edit] PharmaMedDevice Conference and Exhibition
The line between medical devices, pharmaceuticals, and biologics is becoming a blur with evolving technology and the combination of pharmaceutical components with medical devices. PharmaMedDevice is a convention held in New York City that will adress this convergence. The inaugural event will be held in 2007 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center co-located with INTERPHEX, the top pharmacuetical manufacturing event in the industry. The event's educuation program is aimed at providing life sciences companies with a road map for speeding new combination products— drugs, medical devices, and or biologics through physical or chemical means — to the market and extending product lifecycles. In its release announcing PharmaMedDevice, Reed valued the global market for combinations of two or more regulated components at nearly $6 billion in 2004, with growth of 14% per year through 2010. [2] Supporters of this event say that it is the first of its kind to address the needs of the emerging combination products market and the exciting innovations taking place in drug delivery technology and healthcare today.

[edit] Bulgarian hiphop scene
Bulgarian hip hop has been in effect for almost 20 years, primarily beginning after the fall of communism. B-boying came on the scene first taking Bulgaria by storm and continues to play a major influence in the hiphop landscape. Rap was next in line as Avi MC dropped the first Bulgarian hip hop record, Problemi i Ekologia (Problems and Ecology) in 1989. This was followed up by the group Rap Nacia who delivered the first full album, Ocelyavat Samo Silnite (Only the Strong Survive), in 1992. Graffiti soon followed as the bombing of trains, streets and legal walls commenced, leaving DJing as the least developed element due to the high cost of vinyl and turntables.
Over the years, the breakers developed their own community throwing jams for all the b-boys to travel to somewhere in the country every month. However, they still maintain ties to the other elements as they still invite rappers and writers to perform. Some of the best crews include the internationally known Electric Force, who also organize the biggest Bulgarian b-boy jam called B-Boys Breakdown, Diablo Crew, Soul Award, Eazy Snatch, Express Our Soul, and Sleep Walking among others.
Today, illegal mp3s and rampant downloading has made it difficult to participate in the Bulgarian music business. However, despite this problem Bulgaria’s scene continues to grow and gain acceptance into the mainstream. In 2005, Music Mania (MM), the biggest Bulgarian music TV network, recognized DRS (Dope Reach Squad) as they won the station’s “People’s Choice Award.” Misho Shamara (a.k.a. Misho the Slap), owner of one of the more famous labels in the country (R ‘n’ B Records) is also planning a hip hop TV show to promote Bulgarian hip hop. There’s also a growing pool of underground including artists from the two big labels from Plovdiv - Udarnata Grupa (Hit Squad) and Sunrise Project, and mainstays like DRS, X-Team, Spens, Horata Ot Getoto (People From the Ghetto).

[edit] Ande Parks
Ande Parks (born 0ctober 1, 1964) is a professional American comic book artist, known for his work as an inker and writer in the industry. His greatest notoriety has come from his stint with fellow artist Phil Hester on DC Comics’ Green Arrow series from 2001-2004 and writing the graphic novels Union Station and Capote in Kansas. He grew up in the suburbs of Kansas City and currently lives in Baldwin, Kansas with his wife and two children.
Parks began his professional career as an inker in comic books with Dark Horse Comics. He has worked at inking the penciled artwork of such titles as Wonder Woman, Catwoman, Superman, Daredevil, and Spider-Man. His artistic style has won him praise in the comic books industry, including an industry Harvey nomination as best inker. His idols and influences include Neal Adams, Klaus Janson, Jack Kirby, Dick Giordano, and Mike Grell. For characters from the comic books, Parks has stated he has most enjoyed Batman and Captain America as his favorite characters.
He is probably best known for his work on the relaunched Green Arrow comic book series beginning in 2001, which he inked over his frequent collaborator Phil Hester. On Green Arrow, Hester and Parks worked with writers Kevin Smith, Brad Meltzer, and Judd Winick over their approximate 40-issue run. The book has been collected into several volumes. The American Library Association called it one of the best books for young adults. Parks and Hester have also done work on DC Comics’ Nightwing with writer Devin Grayson, allowing Parks to work within the Batman family of characters, and both are currently working on a new project for Marvel Comics involving the super-hero Ant-Man.
Although better known for his artwork, Parks considers himself to be more of a writer than artist. He has contributed several articles in comic book trade magazines, such as Draw!, geared towards critiques of artwork and professional tips for inkers. Parks' combined his inking style with his fondness for writing when he created the superhero spoof Uncle Slam & Fire Dog for Action Planet Comics, based largely on his love of Marvel Comics’ Captain America. Uncle Slam appeared in three issues of the Action Planet anthology book series, and in two issues of his own book in the early- to mid-1990’s. The character also appeared in a completely on-line comic book for Komicwerks.
For graphic novels, he has often turned to his neighboring region in the Midwest as source material for his writing projects. To date Parks has steered towards writing that is best classified as historical fiction. He has credited Alan Moore’s From Hell as being a large influence in his decision to pursue writing in the historical fiction genre. In 2004, Oni Press published Park's first original graphic novel, Union Station. The book dealt with the events surrounding Kansas City's Union Station massacre, which took place in 1933 in Kansas City, Missouri, and helped J. Edgar Hoover make the F.B.I. a powerful organization in law enforcement and government for decades to come. Eduardo Barreto provided the artwork, done in black-&-white to give the piece more of a Depression-era period look.
In 2005 Parks returned to the genre of historical fiction with Capote In Kansas, drawn by Chris Samnee. The book details the time Truman Capote spent in Kansas while he worked on his literary masterpiece, In Cold Blood. He is currently developing his next writing projects, geared towards non-historical fiction.

[edit] Helderberg Escarpment
The Helderberg Escarpment, located in the center of Albany County, New York, is the county’s signature landform. The most dramatic part of the Escarpment, with relief of over a thousand feet, stretches for about ten miles from Knox and Altamont to southern New Scotland, Westerlo and Coeymans. The view from the cliff top encompasses the Mohawk lowlands, the southern Adirondacks and the western mountain ranges of Vermont and Massachusetts. John Boyd Thacher State Park, established in 1914 on the edge of the Escarpment, draws over 250,000 visitors annually to admire the striking scenery from the cliff edge. Exposed layers of sedimentary rock contain a rich array of Devonian fossils that have made the Escarpment an important scientific and cultural resource.

[edit] Girl All The Bad Guys Want
Girl All The Bad Guys Want is a single by the comedic punk band Bowling For Soup, released around 2002. It talks about the protagonist, a guy who tries to be punk to impress the elusive Nona, a "rocker with a nose ring". Nona likes Godsmack and the protagonist likes Agent Orange. "Her CD changer's full of singers that are mad at their dads". She watches wrestling, beats on all the tough guys and listens to rap metal. Much to the protagonist's dismay, he has no "season pass", only tries to be a tough guy, and "all he got's a moped". Apparently, though, Nona still likes him, according to the line "8:00 Monday night and I'm waiting/to finally talk to a girl a little cooler than me". All these qualities make Nona the Girl All the Bad Guys Want.

[edit] Jñānaprasthāna
The main Abhidharma treatise of the Sarvastivada school of Buddhism. It's name means the 'development of wisdom'. It was also one of the key texts that Vasubandhu referenced in his famous Abhidharma Kosa (treasury) and Bhasya (commentary) thereon.
There are disputes over the author. In the chinese, and according to Nagarjuna's Mahaprajnaparamita upadesa, it is authored by Katyayaniputra. However, others claim it was taught by either the Buddha or Sariputra, and it was only Katyayaniputra who popularized it.
The great chinese scholar and prolific translator of the Abhidharma - Xuanzang - believed it to be the work of Katyayaniputra himself.
[edit] Sources
Pruden's translation of de la Vallee Poussin's Abhidharma Kosa Bhasyam discusses the Jñānaprasthāna as follows:
The Abhidharma “with its six feet” is the great treatise of Kātyāyaniputra, entitled the Jñānaprasthāna, upon which the Vibhāsā is a long commentary, and six treatises the order and authorship of which vary somewhat according to our sources. Following the order of Abhidharmakośavyākhya, there are: the Prakaranapāda of Vasumitra, Vijñānakāya of Devaśarman, Dharmaskandha of Śāriputra (or of Maudgalyāyana, according to Chinese sources), Prajñaptiśāstra of Maudgalyāyana, Dhātukāya of Pūrna (or of Vasumitra, Chinese sources), and Saṇgītiparyāya of Mahākausthila (or of Śāriputra, Chinese sources).

"In the late 1970s and the 1980s the CIA spent over $4 billion on a program called “Operation Cyclone.” This was our contribution to setting up training schools in Pakistan and elsewhere, including the U.S. itself, to teach “sabotage skills.” The purpose was to use these individuals in fighting our enemies in the Middle East, including the Soviets. ... It is estimated that over 12,000 fighters were trained in the camps we set up in Afghanistan. They were taught how to make bombs, carry out sabotage, and use guerilla war tactics...."

[edit] Superman Red and Superman Blue
Superman Red and Superman Blue was a story from the 1990's that involved Superman first turning into a creature of energy and then splitting into two people.
Starting from Superman #123, Supes was a creature of pure energy. He had to wear a containment suit, or he'd blow up electrical objects.
Said Joey Cavalieri, "We thought it was time to make things a little tougher for Superman,and since we've already killed him, it seemed the way to do it was to get him powers he was unfamiliar with and have him learn how to walk again."
In December 1997,after an alliance between the Toyman and the Cyborg was foiled, Superman's energy form split in half! Superman survived as two distinct beings: the devil-may-care Superman Red, and the more somber Superman Blue. Identical except for their color, each had the same powers as the original Man of Energy and each could turn into Clark Kent.
Powers Superman: The Man of Tomorrow Containment suit stores energy, which is transformed into other powers. Teleportation, Intangibility, Super-Vision and the Creation of Electromagnetic Fields.

This clock is normally a quartz crystal that vibrates at a set speed.
Each vibration is called a clock pulse or clock cycle.
These pulses are the signals that allow data (i.e. data, instructions, signals) to move around the motherboard at a set speed. In this way the system clock regulates the speed of all activity on the motherboard.
The speed of the system clock is measured in Megahertz (MHz). 1 MHz means 1 million vibrations or clock pulses per second. 75 MHz means 75 million vibrations per second!

[edit] Ramon Vilanova - The Ultimate Landscape Painter
70.111.164.13 16:47, 12 September 2006 (UTC) Acclaimed by art critics and represented in prominent and distinguished collections throughout Europe, Ramon Vilanova is one of the great landscape painters living in Europe. His works have brought him more than 30 1st place prizes in major competitions and his work is in the permanent collection of many museums, a further testament to the credibility and importance of this extraordinary artist. Vilanova works exclusively "plein-air", at that time and place, giving his compositions a special sensitivity, an emotional experience of the scene he has chosen to commit to canvas. He needs fully to experience the environment in order to paint, not just view the scene... He must smell the flowers.., He must be caressed by the breezes… He must experience the light streaming and filtering through the foliage and against the backgrounds. The overall feel is critical to his ability to create his paintings. A photograph or remembrance will not suffice; only real life can fulfill the need. You notice weeds and errant branches and leaves in his paintings, because he paints only what he sees. Nature, like life, is imperfect and Ramon, in his work, shows us all of nature, not only perfect beauty. And yet this uncorrected beauty is captured perfectly, as the paintings are perfect in their representation of the scene as the artist has felt them that day, in that moment. Ramon was born and raised near Barcelona, Spain. He continues to live and to create in these idyllic surroundings in rural Catalonia to the north. His love of the landscape is deep and he senses instinctively how to capture its beauty, as he is thoroughly a part of it. His technique is at once complex and unusual, yet necessary, so that he can infuse the paintings with the sense of what he wishes to convey. He stains his canvases by generously spreading oil paints on with a spatula. Then, still using the spatula, he models and organizes the oils into his representation of the landscape before him. Occasionally, he will further utilize a "dripping and splattering" technique analogous and reminiscent of the works of abstract expressionism. Vilanova's drippings are more contained, but appear in the canvas as an integrating element. All of the artist's creations are complex and symphonic in nature. The artist has a remarkable, intuitive understanding of color. Several prominent European art critics have described Ramon as a "colorist" as his works contain a palette that by its subject matter demands the nuance and surprise of color so that we may properly interpret his sense of immediacy. Vilanova is an instinctive painter with need to paint, in tune with his environment, he is acutely aware of the tonalities and half tones that light creates with color. The world of landscape is what intrigues him... a farmhouse in a field, an island offshore, an urn overflowing with flowers in a private garden, a field of brilliant wildflowers, an errant weed. Vilanova is a self-taught artist, who, though new to the U.S. art market, has been exhibiting in Europe with great success since the early 1970s. He has continued to refine and further define his craft and interpretation to where he really has no contemporary peer in the visual and emotional interpretation of landscapes and seascapes. A book of his works entitled “Latidos” was published earlier this year.

[edit] Wing Tsun: Self-Defense For Modern Times
"Self-Defense For Modern Times" is an introduction to the realistic self-defense system of Wing Tsun Kung Fu. Wing Tsun (or Wing Chun) Kung Fu deals with the much neglected type of combat that occurs everywhere, thousands of times each year. It usually ends with many serious injuries. In this form of close combat, the typical martial artist almost always comes off second-best against the unscrupulous street thug. Weigel explains what makes the Wing Tsun system different and why more and more people rely on the skills and techniques from Wing Tsun.
Wing Tsun Kung Fu uses a highly sophisticated approach to close combat and realistic self-defense that is based on physics and body mechanics. Only this approach allows a "physically weaker" person to defend a much stronger and taller opponent.

Web Influence Zone (WIZ): A web influence zone or WIZ is a basic measurement of an individual’s or organization’s presence on the World Wide Web. A simple way to obtain a WIZ rating on an organization or a particular individual is to insert there name into a Web search engine and see how many organic, or non-sponsored, results show up. Therefore, the more organic results, the greater that organization’s or person’s web influence zone.
Though many use the term web influence zone each day, its origin actually traces back to two young copywriters, Hayden Bond and Anthony Cohn. These two journalists coined the term during an impromptu brain storming session in 2005. While generating ideas to help explain the phenomenon of a person’s or organization’s presence on the World Wide Web (WWW), Cohn began to recall an old electronics store commercial with the tag line “Nobody Beats the WIZ!” He then decided to yell out that particular tag line during the brain storming session for no apparent reason. Cohn’s random utterance sparked Bond’s creativity and he then shouted out the following: “W.I.Z., Web Influence Zone!” Thus, the term web influence zone or WIZ was coined by Bond and Cohn to mean the following:

This province was further divided into ‘civitates’. The area that would later become Luttre belonged to civitas Tungrorum with Tongeren (B) as the capital city, and was near civitas Nerviorum with Tournai (B) as capital.
The new rulers quickly developed a good road infrastructure (partly based on existing links). A ‘service station’ (roman baths, taverns, stables….) has been discovered by archaeologists at Liberchies (a village located 3 kms from Luttre) along the road “Bavai (F) – Tongeren (B) – Köln (D)”.
The first document mentioning the name of Luttre dates back to the end of the XIIIth century. It was an agreement between the seignior of Rêves (also seignior of Luttre) and the Monastery controlling the church of Celles (which would become Pont-à-Celles at the end of the XVIIIth century). The agreement was signed in 1289 and, from that time on, the priest of Celles would come thrice a week to hold services in a newly built chapel in Luttre.
It is generally agreed that the name of Luttre comes from an old German word “lutere” which means “pure, transparent, limpid water”.
Luttre was in the duchy of Brabant, extending from Nivelles (B) till St Hertogenbosch (NL) with Leuven (B) as the capital city. Luttre depended on Nivelles – duchy of Brabant – for administrative duties (taxes, justice) while the birth, marriage and death registers were kept by the priest of Celles which depended on Thuin (B), and thus to the principality of Liège (B). The church kept such registers at that time.
Luttre being a tax-free zone, the inhabitants were exempted from paying taxes on consumer goods. It also meant that people from the neighbouring villages were coming to Luttre for alcohol, wine or beer. We can also imagine a number of inns and pubs for travellers as the Roman highway was quite near.
The area suffered a lot because of continuous wars throughout the centuries. Nevertheless, a traveller in 1615 going from Tournai (B) to Liège (B) wrote about the crystal clear water of the “Piéton”, the stream crossing Luttre, and the beauty of the landscape (green hills, forests and surrounding prairies).
Because of the new ideas following the French revolution in 1789, the Austrian Emperor (who was governing present day Belgian territories) wanted to impose reforms. It was followed by a period of unrest that ended with the French invasion in 1794. The old regime (rights of the seigniors, the power of the monasteries, the church keeping official registers, …) was abolished.
A new system based on municipalities was established in 1795. The municipality of Pont-à-Celles was created from 6 former seigniories (including Luttre). At the same time, the invaded territories were divided in 9 departments. Some municipalities, including that of the new Pont-à-Celles, were withdrawn from Nivelles (which went to the Dyle department, which became the province of Brabant in 1815) and have become part of the Jemappes (named after a French victory in 1792) department.
After the defeat of Napoleon in 1815, present day Belgian territories were united to those of the Netherlands. The Jemappes department became the province of Hainaut, which still exists today.

[edit] Sankofa (film)
Sankofa is a 1993 idependent film directed, written and produced by Ethiopian film director Haile Gerima. A self-absorbed Black American fashion model on a photo shoot in Africa is spiritually transported back to a plantation in the West Indies where she experiences first-hand the physical and psychic horrors of chattel slavery, and eventually the redemptive power of community and rebellion as she becomes a member of a freedom-seeking Maroon colony.
Synopsis Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
Sankofa begins in Africa, in Cape Coast Castle in Ghana, where there is an interplay between a tour group and a photo shoot of Mona, an African American model. In the middle of the shoot, a mysterious man appears, claiming to be the guardian of the castle, he tells the tour group to go away, and Mona to go back to her past. He claims that his people were stolen from Africa through this very location. Mona then wanders through the dungeon following the tour and finds Africans shackled in the dungeons of the castle. She tries to flea but is soon taken captive by people of European descent as she cries in vain that she is an American, not an African.
Thus, her story as Shola begins. These scenes take place in a sugarcane plantation in Louisiana. Shola is a house slave, who does her duties as a slave and does not partake in anything that she deems evil or wrong. She professes her love for Shango, a West Indian slave who tries to change her timid views. Next, a group is shown talking about Nunu, a woman who kills her master just by staring at him. (Click here to hear this story.) Shola, who during this story, recalls being raped by her master, wishes for these powers. The next scene includes a dramatic whipping, where two men, Joe and Noble Ali are depicted, respectively, as a half white headman slave who strives to adopt the white’s ways and a headman slave who appears to be having issues with his role and duties as a headman. Both partake in the whipping of other slaves. When Kutu, one of the slaves who is pregnant, dies after being whipped, Nunu comes and performs a Caesarian to save the child.
Talk of rebellion is soon introduced to the film. Apparently, certain slaves meet secretly with free blacks from the hills to discuss upcoming rebellions. After one unsuccessful rebellion, several slaves are left in cages suspended from trees to die and Nunu is sold. Slowly, Shola starts to learn the importance of resisting. This is primarily because she is repeatedly raped by one of the master even though she prays to the white man’s God. In fact she feels the more she prays to the white man's God the more she is raped. When she is beaten and whipped severely after an unsuccessful escape, she is consoled by Shango and given a Sankofa bird. This act, she claims, turns her into a rebel and she finally realizes the importance of resisting.
The story then shifts to Joe, who has been almost poisoned by another slave. Nunu, his mother, tries to save him, but instead he kills her because he has been convinced by Father Rafael, the priest, that Nunu is the devil. Joe brings his mother's corpse to the church where he finally realizes his betrayal of his people and his own mother, and then he kills Father Rafael. After this escapade, rebellion starts brewing again. This time, Shola kills her rapist, and the rebellion is successful in that many of the slaves realize the importance of resistance and several of the headmasters and slave holders are killed. However, all of the rebelling slaves are chased down by dogs and eventually caught and killed. Shola feels herself lifted up and carried by buzzards who bring her spirit home. The story shifts back to the present, where Shola, or Mona at this time, ignores the photographer and goes to listen to an African chant being performed by Sankofa, a chant which she now has an appreciation for due to her new awareness of her rich African background.

[edit] A Brief Noir (2004)
A low budget film short created in the noir style of the 1940's - 1950's. This piece was done as an homage to the great italian/french filmmakers that embraced that genre. While its surreal plot line lost some of its potential audience, its visual style is an excellent example of noir film. Jagged angles, harsh contrasts, and a femme fatal, are all present in this modern film classic.

74.12.56.119 22:57, 12 September 2006 (UTC) NecroJehovah is a death metal band from Whitby, Ontario. It is said to be spearheading the underground metal revival scene in the Durham Region. The band is known to be based on a classic metal sound comparable to bands like Slayer, Anthrax, and DRI but also incorporating influences from newer, and often extreme, metal from Children of Bodom to Pantera.
[edit] Beginnings
NecroJehovah found its roots in Matt Allman, Bryce Blackmore, and Mike Gibbs after they felt compelled to write "the most extreme songs ever written" on a rainy day in September, 2006. The band subsequently recorded an EP entitled HTAED! mostly inspired by boredom, but surprisingly groundbreaking. The songs Necrophisizisiac, Nail Crusher, and Pain were all performed impromptu, with only one run-through before recording the final take.
[edit] Controversy
Controversy has plagued the band in recent times with accusations that the band only recorded their EP as a joke. The band claims that these accusations are false.

[edit] uterus transplant
A Uterus transplant is a very difficult task becouse of complex blood vessels that supply the lifeline of a uterus, it was done in 2002 in Saudi Arabia and after two monthly cycles it clotted and the organ had to be removed.
Current studies include; one in the UK and one in Sweden, Dr. Hammersmith in the UK predicted a human trial within 2 years and DR Brannstorm from Sweden predicted long ago 2 years and did not produce much.
Immune Supressor would have to be used and studies on kidney and liver transplant patients suggest that the risk did not increase dramaticaly.
there are people that where born without a uterus and do not trust surrogacy (smoking drinking by the surrogate mother) or cannot have one due to religion, their only hope will be some sort of a transplant, once more common it may be a better chouse than surrogacy for bonding mother and child.

Morris, the author of a biography on the legendary Tennessee Sheriff Buford Pusser, which was later made into a motion picture titled “Walking Tall.” W.R. still likes to brag about being the first person to “discover” Billy’s talent.
Another friend of the family who influenced Billy was Carl Montgomery, the co-author of the truck driver hit “Six Days On The Road.” Carl was the brother of Earl “Peanut” Montgomery, writer of 38 singles by George Jones, and Melba Montgomery, star of the Grand Ole Opry.
Billy knew three chords on his Silvertone and could sing along with Charley Pride, Buck Owens and Merle Haggard by the time he entered grade school. Wherever there was live music, that’s where you could find Billy soaking it all up like a hungry sponge.
After high school Billy started working the Alabama-Tennessee state line club and dance hall circuit with his band. One night a CBS representative came to a Muscle Shoals Club and signed Billy “on the spot” to an album deal on Epic records. The legendary Sam Phillips was there that night to put in a good word. But, as luck would have it, Billy’s key man at Epic was moved to the West Coast and put in charge of the Pop and Rock division of the label. Along with several other acts, Billy was lost in the shuffle. Meanwhile, Orion Pictures was holding auditions in Selma, AL, for an up-coming movie staring Jessica Lange, Tommy Lee Jones and Powers Boothe. Billy and his band got the part and Jessica Lange got an Oscar for best actress in “Blue Sky.”
During all of these experiences,Billy continued to write songs--songs that were good enough to get the attention of Sony/Tree publisher and producer, Don Cook. Don signed him one week and by the next week, Billy had cuts on three major artists. Within a little over a year Billy had two ..1 hits...”Learning As you Go” by Rick Trevino and “I Left Something Turned On At Home” by Trace Adkins also “Irresistible You” A ..20 by Ty England.
The following is a list of some of the other artists that have recorded Billy's songs:
T.G. Sheppard Chalee Tennison Mel McDaniel John Anderson Lonestar Daryle Singletary Lee Ann Womack Daron Norwood Shenandoah Delbert McClinton Confederate Railroad George Strait Sammy Kershaw Lori Morgan Tim McGraw Travis Tritt Ken Mellons Gretchen Wilson Ty England Charley Pride Bryan White Oak Ridge Boys Ronnie Milsap Rick Trevino Trace Adkins

MATRIX ESSAYS
Red Pill, Blue Pill “You take the blue pill and the story ends. You wake in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill and you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes. Remember -- all I am offering is the truth, nothing more.” This conversation takes place in the Matrix. Morpheus, the father figure in the movie, is telling Neo, the protagonist in the movie, to choose from two pills that will decide his destiny.
To the robots in the Matrix, humans are valued as energy and are otherwise worthless. The pills offered to Neo were used as a choice to either stay in or go out of the Matrix where the robots would get the energy. Neo finds this out later in the movie but must first decide which pill is the right one or the one that he wants to take - the pill to get you out of the Matrix or the pill where you will stay in.
The allusion to Alice and Wonderland is repeated many times in the movie. One is where Morpheus gives Neo the pills. This is effective as it is repeated so people can relate to it and Alice and Wonderland is a very well known story in today which is also effective. It also makes people remember about the pills choice and how it leads Neo out of the Matrix.
The pills may seem simple but they are a complex subject. The notion of the pills is displaying a choice. The movie is a lot about choice and the pills are a visual form of it. The pills are an intelligent way to show choice. They are a major part of the movie and decide the fate of Neo. The colours of the pills also stand out in an effective way to make the viewers more interested. Red and blue were chosen as the colours for the pills.
Red is a complex colour. It can mean action, confidence, courage and vitality. It can also mean some form of danger. Neo needs to have confidence with his choice. When he is out of the Matrix he needs courage. He will then have a real life and will be energised.
If you want some red in your life you want increased enthusiasm and interest, more energy action and confidence to go after your dreams.
The colour blue symbolises truth. This is a contradiction in the Matrix. It is what you think is the truth but really isn’t. The truth can be dangerous and blue does not give an essence of this. It is a very relaxing colour.
When you want some blue in your life you want calm and relaxation to counteract chaos or agitation, to open the flow of communication, solitude and peace.
If Neo had taken the blue pill he would have woken up in his bed and would have continued his life as prior to the experience. He would have thought it was a dream just like many experiences of his.
He chose the red pill. It was a hard decision to leave the loved ones we assume he had without saying goodbye. He left all he ‘had’ and all he worked for to go somewhere that was not so perfect in itself. It could potentially ruin his life.
Many humans want to gain more knowledge. Many are always looking for new ways to gain it. Neo is a computer hacker meaning he knows a lot but many humans want to know more. Most people would take the red pill as they want knowledge. Morpheus warns Neo "Remember, all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more." The truth is not always wanted information. Choosing the red pill and the life after it is what Aristotle called the examined life. This means that you are the one making the choices. It is the life that you have considered and chosen to lead.
Neo is told that the red pill will help him find truth. But he doesn’t know what this means. It symbolises risk and doubt. However Morpheus does not lie but doesn’t give all information. Many would have turned away but the information given is not substantial. Morpheus also tempts him. Morpheus says to Neo "You have to understand that many people are not ready to be unplugged, and many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system that they will fight to protect it.” This is a form of temptation. It is to lure people in.
There is an advantage to both the pills. Most people believe they are in control of their life. In the Matrix however, people are deceived. They think they are in control of their lives but they are not.
When you are out of the Matrix you are absolutely positive that you are in control. Even though this might not be the case, humans are provoked and like to feel in control. It is almost human instinct to feel this way. Most species would like to feel in control but humans are and believe they can be in control of many. Morpheus with the crowd of people in the second movie is an example of this. This is interpretered because he looks confident. He also looks as if he feels dominant. This is another example of control.
Morpheus says “There is no turning back.” This can be misleading. It puts pressure on the choice maker. They are pressured to make the correct choice. There is no incorrect choice with the pills. Whichever you take you may after think was the incorrect choice but it cannot be changed. On a certain level the choice wouldn’t matter if you had taken the blue pill because you would have woken up and wouldn’t know anything about what happened except it was a dream (or you thought it was.) You wouldn’t think about the right and wrong choice in this circumstance. However it does matter to others that then know you are in ignorance. You don’t know that you are in unawareness of the real world but others do.
In this instance is not just about the pills, but what they stand for in this circumstance. The question is asking us whether reality or truth, is worth following. The blue pill would leave Neo as he is, in a life consisting of what he has have already done, and what we he believes he knows. He is happy and does not need the truth to live. This is what Cipher implies. He says “Ignorance is bliss.” Is all this necessarily true? The life in the Matrix seems perfect without the hassle of the robots and all the other issues but there are still issues in the Matrix. Ignorance can be bliss is terms of the Matrix. By accepting what the inhabitants are told and experiencing life can be easier. There is the social pressure to 'fit in', which is immeasurably strong in most cultures. If Neo is in the Matrix when he is choosing the pills then did he make the choice? If humans do not make choices in the Matrix then who made the choice? Was it Neo or the robots? Is this a problem with the film or did the robots want Neo out of the Matrix? They do not as at the beginning of the movie they are trying to keep Neo away from Morpheus. This is one of the examples of a philosophical question in the movie. They are everywhere and are frequently being asked by the viewers and the characters. They are designed to make you think. Another philosophical debate is what if the red pill leads to an imaginary world. There is no proof to confirm that this is wrong. How do you know what is real and what is not? It could even be a dream. There is no evidence and information is scarce so we do not know. A major theme of the movie is choice. The world can thrive and deteriorate with choice. The choices made in a lifetime choose your outcome.
A theme relating to this is how much does the individual and how much does society contribute to choice? In the Matrix you don’t control choice, however in the real world you may. There could be another dimension to the inhabitants of the real world that is outside the Matrix. No one knows if there is more to the world that they live in. These are all very interesting philosophical questions. The world is confusing and can be misleading but if we do make our own choices then we should try to make them good quality.
The choice of pills is only one of the decisions Neo has to make. Another very important choice is whether he or Morpheus dies. Neo is not the only one making choices. Many of the other characters are as well. It seems more choices are made with the world out of the Matrix. The pills are the first important choice in the movie for Neo. This shows how choices you make are not always necessarily the right ones but you have to live with the consequences. Better choices can lead to better circumstances.
You make millions of choices in your life and your life is based around them. They help guide and build a structure for your wellbeing and can add and extra dimension in your life. They can be good and same are bad but they occur nearly every minute and cannot be avoided. I made a choice to use this topic and I believe it was the right one for me. An unexamined life is not worth living. Or is it?

[edit] BURGER DOG
The burger dog is an oblong form of ground beef designed to fit the same bread bun of the traditional hot dog. It was first publically served in Franklin, TN in 2005 at the yearly community Fall harvest festival. The inventor/designer of the burger dog, Jack Sloan, was attempting to streamline his small food booth operation by eliminating having to purchase and store several different buns in the limited space of the serving booth. Therefore, he experimented at home with the design to get the exact size and weight of oblong ground beef which when cooked properly would fit and slightly hang off a standard hot dog bun. The burger dog can be complimented with the standard amenities of lettuce, tomato, onions, and cheese, as well as, any other additional items the connoisseur may desire. The burger dog was an instant hit at the event and actually out sold the tradition hot dog 2 to 1. It was priced just $.50 more than the hot dog and Sloan provided the same compliments of onions, relish, shredded cheese, mustard, and ketchup for the two items at this first outing of the burger dog to further assist with the streamlining of the food product line and to conserve space. Due to the success of the burger dog during the summer of 2005, he went on in 2006 to trademark the product and design a special 'burger dog' meat press to form the ground beef faster than having to hand press each one.

[edit] Indian Coffe House
Indian Coffee House is a restaurant chain in India, which is run by cooperatives. It is famous for its pure, delicious menu and for its unique history.
In India Coffee Houses were started under the Coffee Board in early fortees under the British Rule. Later in mid fifties the Board closed down the Coffee Houses, pointing out huge loss. And the last grade workers of the Coffee Houses were thrown out to the streets mercilessly.
Then these semi literate, poor workers took over the Coffee Houses through cooperatives under the leadership of India's legendary communist leader A.K. Gopalan. And through painful struggle of the workers the Coffee Houses became profitable. Thus they proved that there is no need of elite bureaucracy to make a business success.
Now we can see ICHs in all important towns of India. It is owned by the workers. And it is also managed by ordinary workers. It is the speciality of ICHs.
This history is available as a book in Malayalam, Kofi Housinte Katha by Nadakkal Parameswaran Pillai. It is published by the Current Books, Thrissur.

It is often translated as banal, tacky or trashy, but it also implies pretentions to a greatness that is lacking. It represents the idea of a false truth or value in something.

[edit] Hadamard Variance
The Hadamard variance is a 3-sample variance, with binomially-weighted coefficients that is similar to the 2-sample Allan variance. It considers the 2nd difference of the fractional frequencies, the 3rd difference of the phase variations. The Hadamard variance, HVAR or s²H(t), converges for the Flicker Walk FM (a = -3) and Random Run FM (a = -4) power-law noise types. It is also unaffected by linear frequency drift.
Like the Allan variance, also the Hadamard variance is usually expressed as its square-root.

Inevitably fatigue took its toll, they lost every game and recorded a 0-10-0 season. However it was not in vain they fought hard and learned a lot from their first senior year. In fact that year Phill Price the Thrasher's Line Backer won the BAFL Rookie Of The Year Award for a sensational season. [11]
[edit] 2006 Season
After training hard over the winter The 2006 Season was exceptional for the Thrashers. They boasted a 5 week winning streak, held 2nd place on the table for a couple of weeks and almost mantained a shut-out against the experienced Plymouth Admirals. These are feats are unheard of for a 2 year old team. The Thrashers also had a hopes of making the playoffs if they beat South Wales Warriors in the last game of the season. However they where crushed when they had a touch down called back in the last minute of the game for a Lineman down field. Andover eventually finished 3rd in the Division 2 South Conference. [12]

[edit] Kent Crusaders Basketball Club
The Kent Crusaders Basketball Club are based at Body & Mind in Canterbury, they compete in the EBL National League Division 2.
The roots of the Kent Crusaders began in the early 1990s when Kevin and Christine Paice, Dave Hooper and Hill Lingham began developing junior basketball at Canterbury College. Through their work, the Canterbury Jazz and CK Heat were born. As the club gathered momentum, the College became the place to be for basketball in East Kent. Trevor Acres and Kevin Maloney joined the coaching staff and numerous boys were given the opportunity to play National League and the club won numerous Kent cups.
In 2000, ex-player and young coach Jay Gifford took over the club. He was joined a year later by Canadian Jesse Sazant. Coach Sazant took the team to new heights, including a National Under 16 quarterfinal in his first season. At this point the club was relaunched as the East Kent Crusaders.
After losing older players to London for years, the club decided to launch a men's Division 3 team in 2004. In their first season the club finished third in Division 3 South East. The initial season saw a number of the club's former junior players return to the Crusaders to be joined by a number of local players. In their second season, the team quickly progressed, winning Division 3 South East and making the finals of the National Shield. The club also signed their first foreign player (Walter Moyse) and foreign coach (assistant Mads Olesen).
The Crusaders have now been promoted to Division 2 and renamed the Body & Mind Kent Crusaders.

[edit] NFSUnlimited.net
NFSUnlimited.net is a fansite of the Need for Speed racing game series.
[edit] History
NFSUnlimited.net first appeared online on April 8th 2000 on a free host Tripod.com first covering the game Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed, released March 26th the same year. On May 8th the domain was registered and soon afterwards the site moved to a proper web host.
The site slowly progressed both in content and in amount of visitors which resulted in more and more bandwidth being required. After changing several webhosts, the site settled with Edgenetwork in September 2002, where it is still hosted.
In October 2003 the site's popularity went up extremely with the release of Need for Speed: Underground demo. It all went up with the final release of Need for Speed: Underground in November of the same year. Soon after the release a new feature called the Showroom was introduced which allowed NFSUnlimited.net's visitors to upload screenshots of their customized cars from the game.

[edit] Hawayo Takata
Hawayo Takata
Reiki comes to the West. Hawayo Takata was born at dawn on December 24th, 1900, on the island of Kauai, Hawaii. Her parents were Japanese immigrants and her father worked in the sugar cane fields. She worked very hard as she was growing up. She eventually married the bookkeeper of the plantation where she was employed. His name was Saichi Takata and they had two daughters. In October of 1930, Saichi died at the age of thirty-four leaving Mrs. Takata to raise their two children. In order to provide for her family, she had to work very hard with little rest. After five years she developed severe abdominal pain, a lung condition and had a nervous breakdown.
Soon after this, one of her sisters died and it was the responsibility of Hawayo to travel to Japan where her parents had moved to deliver the news. She also felt she could receive help for her health in Japan.
She took a steamship and was accompanied by her sister-in-law. After informing her parents of the death of her sister, she entered a hospital. It was found that she had a tumor, gallstones and appendicitis. After resting several weeks, she was ready for the needed operation.
On the operating table, just before the surgery was to begin, Hawayo heard a voice. The voice said, "The operation is not necessary. The operation is not necessary." She had never heard a voice speak to her like this before. She wondered what it meant. The voice repeated the message a third time even louder. She knew she was wide awake and had not imagined the voice. It was so unusual, yet so compelling that she decided to ask the doctor. She got off the operating table, wrapped a sheet around herself and asked to speak to the doctor.
When the doctor finally came, she asked if he knew of any other way that her problems could be helped. The doctor knew of Dr. Hayashi's Reiki clinic and told Hawayo about it. This was something she wanted to try.
At the Reiki clinic, she began receiving treatments. She had never heard of Reiki before and did not know what it was. Using their Reiki hands the practitioners could sense what was wrong with Mrs. Takata. Their diagnosis very closely matched the doctor's at the hospital. This impressed her and gave her confidence in what they were doing.
Two Reiki practitioners would treat her each day. The heat from their hands was so strong that she thought they were using some kind of equipment. She looked around, but saw none. Seeing the large sleeves of the Japanese kimono one of the practitioners was wearing, she thought she had found the location of the equipment. She grabbed the sleeves, but found nothing. The startled practitioner wanted to know what she was doing and when she explained, he began to laugh. Then he told her about Reiki and how it worked.
Mrs. Takata received daily treatments and got progressively better. In four months, she was completely healed. Impressed with the results, she wanted to learn Reiki. However, it was explained that Reiki was Japanese and that it was intended to stay in Japan. It could not be taught to an outsider.
Mrs. Takata talked to the surgeon at the hospital and convinced him to ask Dr. Hayashi to allow her to learn Reiki. Since Dr. Hayashi wanted to teach Reiki to another woman besides his wife, and since Mrs. Takata was so persistent, he decided that she should be the one. In the Spring of 1936, Mrs. Takata received First Degree Reiki. She worked with Dr. Hayashi for one year and then received Second Degree Reiki.
Mrs. Takata returned to Hawaii in 1937. She was soon followed by Dr. Hayashi and his daughter who came to help establish Reiki in Hawaii. In the Winter of 1938, Dr. Hayashi initiated Hawayo Takata as a Reiki Master. She was the thirteenth and last Reiki Master Dr. Hayashi initiated.
Between 1970 and her transition on December 11, 1980, Mrs. Takata initiated twenty-two Reiki Masters. Below is a list of the Reiki Masters she initiated. This is the list she gave to her sister before she passed through transition.
George Araki / Barbara McCullough / Beth Grey / Ursula Baylow / Paul Mitchell / Iris Ishikura (deceased) / Fran Brown / Barbara Weber Ray / Ethel Lombardi / Wanja Twan / Virginia Samdahl / Phyllis Lei Furumoto / Dorothy Baba (deceased) / Mary McFaden / John Gray / Rick Bockner / Bethel Phaigh (deceased) / Harry Kuboi / Patricia Ewing / Shinobu Saito / Kay Yamashita (Takata's Sister) / Barbara Brown /
The original twenty-two teachers have taught others. In the decade since Mrs. Takata experienced transition, Reiki has spread rapidly in the West. It is now practiced throughout North and South America, Europe, New Zealand, Australia and other parts of the world. There are now an estimated 50,000 Reiki Masters with as many as 1,000,000 people practicing Reiki throughout the world.

[edit] The Pyramid of Cool
The Pyramid of Cool was a visual concept devised by the reputable hipsters Roach, Davidson and Holdaway, while on a summer retreat in the Hamptons. It consists of three main categorised 'states' of Coolness: the executive, the spastic, and the bargain-bin.
The Executive is situated at the top of the pyramid, and is reserved only for those who display coolness in excessive amounts. Roach/Davidson/Holdaway (hereby shortened to RDH) wish to make the distinction between 'coolness' and mere 'popularity'. At the core of the 'cool' philosphy lies the concept of internal coolness, an intrinsic quality which cannot be derived from social factors like acceptance or fame. Popular-culture examples of 'Executive' include:
The Spastic refers to the middle section of the pyramid, a place reserved for those who lack the subtle social artistry of an executive, but avoid the embrassing trappings of social ineptitude present in the lower tier of the pyramid. Spastic has often be associated with the term tryhard, and is central to the understanding of the 'spastic' objective - to assimilate into a higher strata of coolness. Such attempts at a coolness class-change are entirely futile, as the perception of effort on the part of the spastic voids all semblance of 'executive' nature in the subject. Such luminaries of the 'spastic' clique include:
The band Nickelback
The lowest level of the 'cool' pyramid, termed [[bargain bin]] by RDH, contains the portion of society that is foreign to the concept of cool. This includes the socially retarded; persons that may not even be aware of the damage caused when they engage in discourse with others. Bargain-bin members usually incur an element of uneasyness and pity in their peers, often inciting ridicule and public avoidance at all costs. Examples include:
Nicki Webster
The cast of any or all seasons of Big Brother
Bowen Plug

[edit] The Montrel College Shooting
On September 13, 2006 a gunman or gunmen entered a Montrel college located west of Montreal's shopping and financial district. armed with a rifles. Though many people believe there was only one shooter, Police are on the look for more then two. One of them was dressed in a full black trenchcoat and silently the gunmen/man made way to the cafeteria.
Once inside the gunmen/man began to open fire on students. Witnesses report "random unfueled" killings as the gunmen/man shot anybody and everybody. They also report people shot in the leg, chest, and arms. After finishing the massacre in the cafeteria, the gunmen/man began to wander the halls and shoot on running students.
Reports of 20 gunshots were heard, and ceased when one of the shooters commited suicide. Reports say 16 or more injured, 3 in critical condition, and 4 dead. People are also debating a fourth gunmen.
Shooting started inside the Dawson College cafeteria shortly before 1 p.m., television networks reported. Witnesses said a tall, skinny man with a Mohawk haircut entered the school with a ``large gun. Michel Boyer, a student at Dawson, told CBC television that he heard about 20 shots.
Police evacuated the students to a nearby store, and also evacuated the nearby Place Alexis-Nihon shopping center. Subway service between the McGill and Lionel-Groulx stations has been halted until further notice.
Ian Lafreniere, a spokesman for the Montreal Police department, told reporters police are still looking for ``one or more suspects. - ``We heard there were four shooters, Frem said in an interview. ``We heard there was a hostage. When we came down, we saw blood on the walls. There were lots of cops, lots of dogs and bloodstains.
The shooting may be the worst in Canada since 1989, when Marc Lepine shot 14 women to death at the Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal. Several others were injured before Lepine, 25, turned the gun on himself.

[edit] Pound-Drever-Hall Locking
In Laser Physics, Pound-Drever-Hall Locking or PDH locking is a technique used to improve a laser's frequency stability.
It uses an external high-finesse cavity (i.e. a Fabry-Perot interferometer) as the reference, and an electronic servo to control the laser.
It was developed by Drever and Hall based on the Pound stabilizer, used to stabilize microwave cavities.
The laser is frequency modulated, either directly by the current input on a diode laser, or by using an Acousto-Optical Modulator. This introduces two side-bands onto the carrier frequency of the laser. The two side bands, fc − fm and fc + fm have a 180 degree phase relationship between them.
To be able to seperate the input signal from the return signal, an isolator is used, which makes use of the othongonalise polarisation to direct the input beam on a different path to the output beam. One simple system is to pass the beam into a Polarisation Beam Splitting Cube, e.g. a Thomson prism pair. This will pass horizontally polarised light into the cavity and reflect vertically polarised light to a fast-photodector. The reflected light is rotated by using a quater-wave-plate. However, good optical isolation is still required to prevent reflected light optically feedbacking into the laser, and creating oscillation.
A resonant cavity will have a maximum reflection when on resonance with the input source. A simple locking technique uses the reflected light of the cavity, using the side-of-fringe technique, which locks just off-resonant with the cavity's mode. This means that if the laser frequency increases (e.g. due to thermal drift) it will come closer to resonance with the cavity. The error signal will increase. If the laser frequency drops, it will move further away from resonance and the error signal will decrease. Therefore, the error signal can be fed to the laser and used to drive the laser back onto the lock-point. There are two problems with this scheme though. It is very easy for the laser to move so far from the lock point that it is on the otherside of the reflection peak, and the above situation is reversed. This is sometimes called "anti-lock" and the laser will be driven rapidly to another mode. The other problem is a side-of-fringe lock will respond to intensity noise, as well as frequency noise on the laser. This can be corrected for with intensity locking schemes, but is not ideal.
The power of the PDH system is that is uses the reflected signal on resonance. However, to know whether the laser's frequency is higher or lower than the cavity's, it is neccessary to know the phase of the signal. That way the laser can be driven back to resonance.
The reflected beam from the cavity is made up of two parts. There is an immediantly reflected part, and a part that comes from the round trip in the cavity. We need to measure the phase of the reflected beam, as this will tell us whether our laser frequency is higher or lower than the the cavities.
On resonance, the carrier will be perfectly transmitted. By adding a high frequency modulation, which are much higher than the cavity's finesse, or width, both sidebands are almost totally reflected.
To measure the phase-difference of these reflected sidebands, we need to deliberately send in to the cavity two beams with a fixed phase relationship. FM sidebands provide exactly this. In a perfect FM case, the two sidebands will be 180 degrees apart. When these two interfere, on the ouput of the cavity, a beat signal is created, which is dependent on their phase difference. It is this beat frequency that is detected on the photodiode. This gives us a measure of phase difference as an intensity on the photodiode.
For instance, suppose our laser is just higher than resonance. The upper sideband will experience a positive phase-shift, whilst the lower sideband sees a negative phase shift. When these two signals are beat together, the beat frequency will be lower than the modulation frequency. The reverse is also true.
However, the beat frequency is still at the carrier frequency and therefore contains a high (typically MHz) conponent. To remove this and just leave a DC error signal, the signal from the photodiode is mixed with the original modulation frequency. So long as the phase difference between these two is zero, the resultant signal contains the difference between the beat signal and the modulation and 2f components. The 2f components are filtered out, leaving a DC signal which is positive when the phase-difference (and therefore the frequency difference between reference and laser) is positive, and vice-versa. The great thing about the PDH signal is it has both a wide capture range and a fast response. A typical signal looks like :
An ideal locking signal would be 1 when the laser frequency is too low (and thus would drive the frequency higher until it reached resonance) and -1 when laser frequency is too high. The change would occur very rapidly on resonance, with the error signal being zero when both frequencies match.
The PDH signal is good because is has a rapid transmission in the centre and two flatish plateaus at the top and bottom. If the laser jumps frequency it will be in one of the two plateaus and will find itself back to the centre. While it is in the centre, a small frequency shift will result in a large error signal change, rapidly driving back the laser to resonance.
The shape is determined by two things. The finesse of the cavity and the modulation frequency. The width of each peak is determined by the ratio of the two. However, the slope in the centre is determined by the finesse of the cavity. If the modulation frequency is too high the two "dips" in the curve increase. If these reach zero, the lock may be falled into locking to them instead of the centre. Therefore a careful choice of these two values is required.

[edit] Hazel R. Carter
According to Coldwell Banker, Hazel R. Carter (b. 1938) was in the top four percent for sales of homes in Northern California during 2001-2004. She opened the Belvedere office in 1997. The disparity between Hazel's talent and her fame is of her own making. Abjuring the more-is-better syndrome that can overtake realtors with high volume aspirations, Hazel has limited the size of her successful 22-year practice to no more than 15 commissions a year, so that she can devote her undivided attention to providing the personal service that is missing when an agent undertakes more than that. Consequently, the experience of buying or selling property in Marin County is made pleasant instead of an ordeal.
Moreover, her relationship with her clients doesn't come to a halt when escrow closes. She can advise against unnecessary improvements, as well as suggest architects, contractors, and landscapers, moving companies or what have you. As a result, most of her relationships with clients ripen into close friendships. "Life's too short not to work with someone you like." The majority of her business comes by referral or is repeat business.
Known for her honest, practical advice and for showing property that realistically suits her clients’ budgets and desires, Hazel's constant support and commitment to excellence ensure you get the results you desire. Her skilled negotiating and aggressive marketing are complemented by her innovative ideas. She offers knowledgeable counsel, British efficiency and a comforting English sense of humor that have established her as one of the most trusted real estate persons in Marin County.
Hazel founded the Afternoon Academy, a successful after-school program on the Tiburon peninsula and is active in the Marin Association of Realtors. Hazel was educated at the University of London and the Royal Academy.

24.93.136.172 01:35, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
Whore's egg is a slang term, used by fishermen or lobstermen, for a sea urchin. The expression is common in New England and the Canadian Maritime provinces.
These spiny creatures have a habit of getting into lobster traps or fishing nets, and they are painfully sharp, earning them a salty and unflattering nickname from the people who have to handle them.
Later they became quite commercially valuable on the Asian market, so they were a little less despised.
"Son of a whore's egg!" is a colorful waterfront epithet.

[edit] Logan Senjov
Logan Senjov, was born in 1987 to a small family of ravenous wolves/men, similar in hirichial structure to the cave men of the early 1800's. As a yound child, Logan was interedted in a range of phsydo-sport like activities, by which we mean sex with a range of wildlife, both flora and fauna. Physicists theorise that the "Big Bang" and extention of the smarter dinosaus was a direct result of Logan touching himself at night (your mother touches herself at night). To this day, logan touches himself at night, and has since destroyed the world trade centres, and caused my lack of facial hair.

[edit] Patrick "Muttons" Riordan
Patrick Riordan has been and always will be a monumental influence in his respective fields. Residing in Geneva, Illinois, he is well known throughout the tri-cities area for his insatiable appetite for women and funk. While his lovelife in a nonstop parade of luscious women, Patrick still finds time to play in a funk band, a jazz band, a marching band, and a volunteer church band, playing primarily sax with the occasional bass clarinet. He plays soccer at the varsity level, and when not writing self-serving third person narratives, Patrick Riordan stands as the monumental epitome of good looks and bold masculinity.
