What kind of celebrity would you be?Your Result: The Role Model
81%
You would be the role model. All of society bows in respect towards you. There is not one person on earth who makes you look like a douche. on the red carpet you make every other celebrity weep for just being there. You are the Zeus of entertainment.
You attract the very well-dressed, job oriented type of people. They usually have their finances together, are 'middle of the road' on most topics, generally happy with the 'main-stream' of things. If it is stability you are after, these are good people to attract, if you seek adventure, it may be time for an overhaul.
accompanying notes: According to the Monroe County Independent a man spotted a unidentified flying object northeast of Hecker, IL on Tuesday just after 7pm. County police patrolled the area near Paderborn.
Officers say the object remained stationary and twinkled with red, green, blue and orange light.
Around 8pm the object was joined by a second light that appeared closer to the horizon and near Freeburg. According to witnesses that object also appeared to twinkle with red, green, blue and orange light.
Scott Air Force Base did not report any aircraft flying in the area.
this was at about 7:00 P.M. local on October 23 2012
This should make for a VERY interesting discussion...

SYDNEY, October 18, 2012, (LifeSiteNews.com) – Australian school children are to be told that heterosexuality is not the norm, according to a new education department pilot program called “Proud Schools.”
“Heterosexism” is one of the evils that the Proud Schools program is intended to stamp out, along with “homophobia and transphobia,” education officials have said. According to the minutes from the Proud Schools steering committee on March 22, 2011, the program focuses on reversing “the dominance of heterosexism rather than on homophobia.”
The program defines “heterosexism” as the practice of “positioning heterosexuality as the norm for human relationship,” according to the Proud Schools Consultation Report. “It involves ignoring, making invisible or discriminating against non-heterosexual people, their relationships and their interests. Heterosexism feeds homophobia.”
The committee suggested that teachers must monitor the playground in order to stamp out “heterosexist” language among children in out-of-class hours.
The education department has allocated $250,000 for the pilot program that is running now in 12 state schools.
"Eat hearty boys (and girls) because tonight we dine in hell".... or the library.
Did you eat a hot meal today? It's a smart thing to do, as our ancestors learned.
According to a new study, a surge in human brain size tehat occurred roughly 1.8 million years ago can be directly linked to the innovation of cooking.
Homo erectus, considered the first modern human species, learned to cook and doubled its brain size over the course of 600,000 years. Similar size primates—gorillas, chimpanzees, and other great apes, all of which subsisted on a diet of raw foods—did not.
"Much more than harnessing fire, what truly allowed us to become human was using fire for cooking," said study co-author Suzana Herculano-Houzel, a neuroscientist at the Institute of Biomedical Sciences at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil.
(Related: "Cooking Gave Humans Edge Over Apes?")
A Diet Unfit for King Kong
Herculano-Houzel and colleague Karina Fonseca-Azevedo measured the body and brain masses of primates and compared them with their caloric intake and hours spent eating. Unsurprisingly, the results showed a direct correlation between calories and body mass. In other words, the bigger you are, the more you have to eat.
But since there are only so many hours in the day, a primate can only become so big. A gorilla, for instance, is the largest primate. Yet it can only eat for ten hours a day, due to limited food supply, the time it takes to find that food, and the lengthy process of chewing through tough fibrous plants.
This results in a maximum weight of around 440 pounds (200 kilograms). On this diet, said Herculano-Houzel, "King Kong could not exist."
Even if he did, his brain would be comparatively small. That's because brain matter "costs" more calories than other body mass, according to the "expensive tissue hypothesis." (See brain pictures.)
And as the team write in their paper, gorillas could never eat enough nutrients to support their enormous size and the expensive tissue of the brain. "Apes can't afford both brain and body," said Herculano-Houzel.
Humans can't either. But when we came to a fork in the evolutionary road—brawn this way, brains that way—we took the cerebral route. This development came to be known as encephalization: We ended up with brains that are much bigger than our body size would indicate.
Cooking was the key, said Herculano-Houzel, whose study appeared this week in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Heating our food unlocked nutrition: 100 percent of a cooked meal is metabolized by the body, whereas raw foods yield just 30 or 40 percent of their nutrients.
Applying fire to food also softens tough fibers, releases flavors, and speeds up the process of chewing and digesting. The extra nutrition, and the improved eating experience, allowed our prehistoric ancestors to spend less time searching for food—and less time chewing through tough plants for meager caloric reward.
(See "Eating Crocodile Helped Boost Early Human Brains?")
Cooking, therefore, gave us both the nutrition we needed to develop large brains and the time we needed to use them for things more interesting than chewing.
It was at this point, said Herculano-Houzel, that having a large brain stopped being an evolutionary liability—a feature that required a lot of effort to support with nutrients—and became an asset: something that could help us gain those nutrients more easily. We could now spend time thinking of better ways to hunt, to live, to develop culture, art, and early technologies—all the things that made us who we are now.
A West Virginia author who claimed to be a victim of a drive-by shooting along a rural Montana highway while working on his memoir 'Kindness in America' has confessed to shooting himself, authorities said Friday. Ray Dolin of Julian, West Virginia, 39, acknowledged his lie on Thursday night, according to Valley County Sheriff Glen Meier. The case remains under investigation and charges are possible, though none have been filed. Dolin claimed he was hitchhiking along U.S. Highway 2 west of Glasgow on Saturday when the driver of a maroon pickup pulled over and shot him in the arm. Authorities later arrested Lloyd Christopher Danielson III, 52, and charged him felony assault. That charge was dropped Thursday. Dolin runs a photography business called OneShot Impressions, which has as its logo the cross-hairs of a rifle scope. He could not be reached for comment Friday. But he said in a Thursday interview prior to his alleged confession that he recently had taken a bus from West Virginia to Sidney and then began traveling across the state working on his memoir about people's kindness. Asked about the release of Danielson, Dolin said then that he was reluctant to comment because of the ongoing investigation. But he talked at length about his planned photographic memoir, offering several supposed instances in which strangers had gone out of their way to help him along his journey. And he repeated the claim made to authorities that he was shot as he was stopped on the side of the road preparing a meal. Dolin told The Associated Press that no words were exchanged and that he never got a good look at the perpetrator. 'He came up, pulls up at a normal speed, stops, points, shoots and drives off. ... I did not get a good description,' Dolin said. The woman who stopped to help Dolin said Friday that she had no suspicions at the time that he might be responsible for his own wound. Sherry Alveson, of Malta, said she stopped after her daughter saw Dolin waving his jacket on the side of the road trying to flag down passing vehicles. 'He had blood down his arms, all over his clothes and he was bleeding and shivering and shaky,' Alveson said of her initial encounter with Dolin. 'I wasn't going to leave him sitting there.' Alveson said she only became suspicious after reading in Friday's paper that Danielson had been released. She said that made her wonder if the shooter was still at large or if Dolin shot himself. But she said it wouldn't have changed her decision to stop along the highway last weekend. 'Whether it was self-inflicted or somebody else did it, he needed help,' Alveson said. Authorities arrested Danielson — a Tumwater, Washington, man in the region to work in the Bakken oil fields — about 100 miles from the scene of the shooting based on a match between his vehicle and a description offered by Dolin. He was freed after his vehicle was examined under a search warrant, Meier said, although no further details have been offered.
what a poster boy, writing a book on kindness and making shit up (for which others get arrested)...would have been THE FEEL-GOOD BOOK of the year...
and here's the latest round, the link is to sfgate.com, dated 10/29/12...
A hitchhiker from West Virginia has pleaded guilty in Montana to criminal charges brought after he falsely claimed to be the victim of a drive-by shooting. Ray Dolin of Julian, W.Va., pleaded guilty Monday in state District Court in Valley County to tampering with evidence, making a false report and obstructing a peace officer. The struggling photographer has admitted to shooting himself in the arm while hitchhiking near Glasgow in northeastern Montana. He initially claimed it was a drive-by shooting and stuck with that story even after a Washington state man was arrested in the case. Court documents show Dolin claims he was trying to kill himself but failed and should have come forward with the truth sooner. Sentencing was set for Jan. 22 before District Judge John McKeon.

Before the bias factor comes up read and check out the facts not the myths or outright lies by Islamist propagandists
When his wife saw how energetic the normally exhausted Khalid was, she urged him to share this miraculous discovery with the local holy man at the monastery. The chief monk did not share Khalid's enthusiasm. Declaring the berries "the work of the Devil," he flung them into a fire to banish their offending presence. Soon the room filled with the delicious aroma of roasting berries, and other monks hurried in to discover the source of this new delight." Notice above, that the passage says the goat herder named Khalid (or Kaldi as he is named in another version of the story) was an Abyssinian. Abyssinians were predominantly Orthodox Christians. In addition, there is no such thing as monasteries or monks in Islam. In fact, it is forbidden (Qur'an 57:027). Therefore, if this legend were to be true, Khalid (or Kaldi) would not have been a Muslim, but a Christian.
