Eclipse Book Recap: Chapter 13 %26ampquot;Newborn%26ampquot;

Came upon this today:
Twitter.com - Follow Us! Facebook.com SPOILER ALERT! Dont watch if you havent read the books. Chapter 13 %26ampquot;Newborn%26ampquot;: It's starts with Jasper explaining his scar, saying he has several more and that only vampire venom leaves a known mark. He then goes to tell HIS story to Bella. We learn that in Jasper's young adult time, the vampire groups in the South were always fighting for highly populated areas - since the human deaths seemed to go more unnoticed. One vampire, Benito, discovered that he could create an army of newborn vampires in order to easily destroy other covens in order to take over territories and thus be able to feed more frequently. Jasper tells how newborns are powerful, intense and stronger than other vampires for about a year after being turned, so Benito was unstoppable ... Pop Quiz: Why did it take the Volturi such a long time to intervene with the newborn killings in the South - especially if they were so against human knowledge of vampires?

Armando Galarraga's perfect game is stolen by Jim Joyce, which of course makes Hitler very upset.

Came upon this today:
Armando Galarraga throws a perfect game for Detroit, only to have umpire Jim Joyce deny him with a blown call. Even Hitler is upset with the injustice and suggests that Bud Selig reverse the call. My appreciation to Oliver Hirschbiegel, the director of the movie %26ampquot;Der Untergang%26ampquot; (Downfall) from which this scene is taken, for his reasonable response to the viral repurposing of his footage. Much respect to Bruno Ganz for his interpretation of the doomed Hitler which has become so iconic. This clip is a fair-use parody of the original source material which is not meant to replace said original material in any manner. 6/03/10 JIm Joyce's response to his mistake deserves the highest praise. He has faced the issue head on instead of hiding from it like so many have before. I find it curiously ironic that the blown call that took away the perfect game instead gave both Galarraga and Joyce the chance to display a level of sportsmanship and humanity that will ensure that this one hitter is remembered long after other perfect games are forgotten. Bud Selig is still a tool though. 6/05/10------------------------------------------------------------- In case you are interested in any of the events I have referenced in the video, here is a selection of links for you to explore. While I realize that the wikipedia links are sometimes less than scholarly, I have included them because I think they will be stable, non-disappearing, links for you to begin further exploration at. 0:22 %26ampquot;already %26amplt;b%26ampgt;...%26amplt;/b%26ampgt;Armando Galarraga's perfect game is stolen by Jim Joyce, which of course makes Hitler very upset.

Benchmade Mini-Presidio Ultra: Pardue Power

I like this one:
Another great Benchmade EDC carry choice, the Benchmade Mini-Presidio Ultra 527 (long name!) provides hand filling traction from its Noryl GTX handle scales. Some users will like the additional thickness which may translate to better ergonomics in use. The traction on these scales is good. The drop point 440C blade on the 527 arrives sharp and slices with excellence (much better that more obtuse blade grinds). This grind is a high point of the design in my opinion (and does help make it lighter too). This Pardue drop point has a good belly and a sharp tip as well. Though it does add some thickness, the Axis Lock is superb providing fast use and high strength lockup. The overall ergonomics are good but of course jimping is lacking in the design (made up for with good handle flares, top and bottom). The pocket clip is reversible and thankfully features tip up carry (and it buries the 527 nicely in the pocket). With the Axis Lock and this clip, the Mini Presidio is a fully ambidextrous EDC knife choice. At 3.2 oz it is heavier than many other also excellent utility knife choices but you get the Axis lock on this still very portable knife. A hallmark of the Benchmade blade is also speed and the 527 has it. Atribute to fine machining, phosphor bronze bushings, the Axis Lock, and a perfect thumbstud for this quickness into action. And the knife deploys into position with a precision and solidness that makes these Benchmades so addicting. The design features a Zytel backspacer %26amplt;b%26ampgt;...%26amplt;/b%26ampgt;Benchmade Mini-Presidio Ultra: Pardue Power
