Craig: Welcome to our Five on 5, pleased to be joined today by Knute Buehler, Republican
candidate for governor as well as the State Representative.
Good to see you, thanks for being here.
Knute: Good to see you Craig.
Craig: So, it's been six years since you and I first sat down for one of these Five
on 5's Knute: It doesn't seem like that long
Craig: Time flies, right?
So, eventually, you lost that race for Secretary of State, Kate Brown.
How does that first state level race affect how you'll approach this one?
Knute: Well you learn a lot as you can imagine from that experience and the most important
lesson I leaned from that is I really don't like to lose, and I don't intend to do it
again.
So, that's important, but I took that race seriously and continued to want to serve so
then I ran for the legislature where I've successfully won two elections, two hard elections,
they had been, which has been a good experience.
Craig: It's been 36 years since Oregon's elected a Republican governor, what makes
you think you can break that streak?
Knute: Yeah, great question, I get asked that a lot as you can imagine, I think Nelson Mandela
said best, "everything's impossible til it happens."
So, we don't see that it's an impossible task.
There's a clear path to victory and our experience in running and winning difficult
elections in Bend has been good training.
Good training because it is a very Democratic district that I hold, it's the most Democratic
district in the entire state that has elected a Republican so we know how to win in that
kind of environment.
It means putting together not just Republicans but also Independents and Moderate Democrats
to form a new type of coalition that can propel you to victory and we tend to do that statewide.
Craig: Interesting.
What do you say is the most important thing that you learned in your four years as a state
representative?
Knute: Yeah, it's been a wonderful experience.
Representing the people of the city of Bend, and I've really had a front row seat in
the legislature.
A front row seat to really the mismanagement of the state of Oregon, the mismanagement
of the state of Oregon by Governor Brown, really a failure in leadership.
Overall the Brown administration has been a series of really, of big mistakes in terms
of the Oregon Heath Authority in terms of administration important state programs and
it's time we solved these big problems and put some confidence back in how we're going
to deliver these services in the state of Oregon.
Craig: You describe yourself as pro-choice, you've criticized President Trump and earned
the ire of some gun rights activists when you voted to close the so called "boyfriend
loophole."
That's lead some to say that you're not a conservative.
How do you react to that?
Knute: Yeah, I reject all those kinds of labels, Craig.
I think those labels increasingly divide us and importantly don't describe any of us
very well so I'm very fiscally conservative, but I'm also an independent-minded person,
I like to lead with an open mind, a caring heart and a thoughtful voice and I take the
issues based on what I think is best, what I think is best for every Oregonian no matter
who you are, where you live, or even what party you're registered to vote in, so I
will, if necessary, if I think my party is wrong, I'll make an independent decision
and you've mentioned some of them which I think my party has gotten off-track a little
bit.
Craig: Ok, we're gonna take a quick commercial break; we'll much more in a moment.
Stay with us.
Craig: Welcome back to our Five on 5, again we're here with Republican candidate for
Governor and State Representative Knute Buehler.
Want to ask you about PERS, huge problem in Oregon.
As Governor, how would you fix it?
Knute: Yeah, great question.
It's the 900 lb. gorilla in Oregon politics that really has to be fixed because it is
eating revenue that should be going to our kids, or to providing health care to transportation
infrastructure.
It's a problem that has to be fixed.
It is a moral imperative.
It really is a moral imperative for loyal public employees who are depending on those
dollars, and also for kids who don't have the high quality schools that I'd like to
see.
This is what I would do as Governor, I will not sign a single new spending bill until
I have a PERS reform bill on my desk and here's some of the features I want to see in that
bill and we need to end the Bellotti payouts or the $50,000 a month payouts that we see
right now.
Cap it at about $150,000 a year.
Second thing I'd like to see is public employees need to pay into their own retirement plan,
and third we need to actually bring PERS to an end.
People who have had their liabilities generated, we need to honor those so past contracts need
to be honored, but going forward everyone's transitioned to a more typical 401k plan.
You know, those things will save hundreds of millions of dollars, put money back into
the schools and important social services.
It's vital problem that needs to be fixed and unfortunately Governor Brown has ignored
it her entire time in Salem, it needs to be fixed.
Craig: I'm sure you're familiar with the term "two Oregon's."
There's the Portland/Willamette Valley and the rest of the state, you're from, you
represent an Eastern Oregon, you're in Southern Oregon right now, how do you work to convince
the Portland market, you know, the Independents there as much as anybody else, to vote Republican?
Knute: Yeah, I think certainly we have experience, I represent Bend which is, you know, a very
Democratic city, we have good experience in talking to Independent voters and importantly
even Democratic voters about issues that they really care about.
Housing, health care, homelessness; those are issues that transcend party divisions.
There's solutions to those and people want solutions to those problems no matter if you're
Republican or Democrat and I'll clearly lead on those issues where Governor Brown
has failed over her last four years as Governor, it's time to fix these types of big problems
that have been avoided, ignored and made a lot worse by Governor Brown the last 3 years.
Craig: I know how busy you are, appreciate you coming by.
Thanks very much.
Knute: Yeah, thanks a lot Craig: Good to see you.
Alright, stay with us, we'll be right back.

Machiavelli, Discourses, Book I, Chapter XXIX - Duration: 7:23.
Book I, Chapter XXIX.—Whether a People or a Prince is the more ungrateful.
In connection with what has been said above, it seems proper to consider whether more notable
instances of ingratitude are supplied by princes or peoples.
And, to go to the root of the matter, I affirm that this vice of ingratitude has its source
either in avarice or in suspicion.
For a prince or people when they have sent forth a captain on some important enterprise,
by succeeding in which he earns a great name, are bound in return to reward him; and if
moved by avarice and covetousness they fail to do so, or if, instead of rewarding, they
wrong and disgrace him, they commit an error which is not only without excuse, but brings
with it undying infamy.
And, in fact, we find many princes who have sinned in this way, for the cause given by
Cornelius Tacitus when he says, that "men are readier to pay back injuries than benefits,
since to requite a benefit is felt to be a burthen, to return an injury a gain."[1]
When, however, reward is withheld, or, to speak more correctly, where offence is given,
not from avarice but from suspicion, the prince or people may deserve some excuse; and we
read of many instances of ingratitude proceeding from this cause.
For the captain who by his valour has won new dominions for his prince, since while
overcoming his enemies, he at the same time covers himself with glory and enriches his
soldiers, must needs acquire such credit with his own followers, and with the enemy, and
also with the subjects of his prince, as cannot be wholly agreeable to the master who sent
him forth.
And since men are by nature ambitious as well as jealous, and none loves to set a limit
to his fortunes, the suspicion which at once lays hold of the prince when he sees his captain
victorious, is sure to be inflamed by some arrogant act or word of the captain himself.
So that the prince will be unable to think of anything but how to secure himself; and
to this end will contrive how he may put his captain to death, or at any rate deprive him
of the credit he has gained with the army and among the people; doing all he can to
show that the victory was not won by his valour, but by good fortune, or by the cowardice of
the enemy, or by the skill and prudence of those commanders who were with him at this
or the other battle.
After Vespasian, who was then in Judæa, had been proclaimed emperor by his army, Antonius
Primus, who commanded another army in Illyria, adopted his cause, and marching into Italy
against Vitellius who had been proclaimed emperor in Rome, courageously defeated two
armies under that prince, and occupied Rome; so that Mutianus, who was sent thither by
Vespasian, found everything done to his hand, and all difficulties surmounted by the valour
of Antonius.
But all the reward which Antonius had for his pains, was, that Mutianus forthwith deprived
him of his command of the army, and by degrees diminished his authority in Rome till none
was left him.
Thereupon Antonius went to join Vespasian, who was still in Asia; by whom he was so coldly
received and so little considered, that in despair he put himself to death.
And of cases like this, history is full.
Every man living at the present hour knows with what zeal and courage Gonsalvo of Cordova,
while conducting the war in Naples against the French, conquered and subdued that kingdom
for his master Ferdinand of Aragon; and how his services were requited by Ferdinand coming
from Aragon to Naples, and first of all depriving him of the command of the army, afterwards
of the fortresses, and finally carrying him back with him to Spain, where soon after he
died in disgrace.
This jealousy, then, is so natural to princes, that they cannot guard themselves against
it, nor show gratitude to those who serving under their standard have gained great victories
and made great conquests on their behalf.
And if it be impossible for princes to free their minds from such suspicions, there is
nothing strange or surprising that a people should be unable to do so.
For as a city living under free institutions has two ends always before it, namely to acquire
liberty and to preserve it, it must of necessity be led by its excessive passion for liberty
to make mistakes in the pursuit of both these objects.
Of the mistakes it commits in the effort to acquire liberty, I shall speak, hereafter,
in the proper place.
Of mistakes committed in the endeavour to preserve liberty are to be noted, the injuring
those citizens who ought to be rewarded, and the suspecting those who should be trusted.
Now, although in a State which has grown corrupt these errors occasion great evils, and commonly
lead to a tyranny, as happened in Rome when Cæsar took by force what ingratitude had
denied him, they are nevertheless the cause of much good in the republic which has not
been corrupted, since they prolong the duration of its free institutions, and make men, through
fear of punishment, better and less ambitious.
Of all peoples possessed of great power, the Romans, for the reasons I have given, have
undoubtedly been the least ungrateful, since we have no other instance of their ingratitude
to cite, save that of Scipio.
For both Coriolanus and Camillus were banished on account of the wrongs which they inflicted
on the commons; and though the former was not forgiven because he constantly retained
ill will against the people, the latter was not only recalled, but for the rest of his
life honoured as a prince.
But the ingratitude shown towards Scipio arose from the suspicion wherewith the citizens
came to regard him, which they had not felt in the case of the others, and which was occasioned
by the greatness of the enemy whom he had overthrown, the fame he had won by prevailing
in so dangerous and protracted a war, the suddenness of his victories, and, finally,
the favour which his youth, together with his prudence and his other memorable qualities
had gained for him.
These qualities were, in truth, so remarkable that the very magistrates, not to speak of
others, stood in awe of his authority, a circumstance displeasing to prudent citizens, as before
unheard of in Rome.
In short, his whole bearing and character were so much out of the common, that even
the elder Cato, so celebrated for his austere virtue, was the first to declare against him,
saying that no city could be deemed free which contained a citizen who was feared by the
magistrates.
And since, in this instance, the Romans followed the opinion of Cato, they merit that excuse
which, as I have said already, should be extended to the prince or people who are ungrateful
through suspicion.
In conclusion it is to be said that while this vice of ingratitude has its origin either
in avarice or in suspicion, commonwealths are rarely led into it by avarice, and far
seldomer than princes by suspicion, having, as shall presently be shown, far less reason
than princes for suspecting.

Five on 5 Knute Buehler R Oregon State Representative - Duration: 5:36.
Craig: Welcome to our Five on 5, pleased to be joined today by Knute Buehler, Republican
candidate for governor as well as the State Representative.
Good to see you, thanks for being here.
Knute: Good to see you Craig.
Craig: So, it's been six years since you and I first sat down for one of these Five
on 5's Knute: It doesn't seem like that long
Craig: Time flies, right?
So, eventually, you lost that race for Secretary of State, Kate Brown.
How does that first state level race affect how you'll approach this one?
Knute: Well you learn a lot as you can imagine from that experience and the most important
lesson I leaned from that is I really don't like to lose, and I don't intend to do it
again.
So, that's important, but I took that race seriously and continued to want to serve so
then I ran for the legislature where I've successfully won two elections, two hard elections,
they had been, which has been a good experience.
Craig: It's been 36 years since Oregon's elected a Republican governor, what makes
you think you can break that streak?
Knute: Yeah, great question, I get asked that a lot as you can imagine, I think Nelson Mandela
said best, "everything's impossible til it happens."
So, we don't see that it's an impossible task.
There's a clear path to victory and our experience in running and winning difficult
elections in Bend has been good training.
Good training because it is a very Democratic district that I hold, it's the most Democratic
district in the entire state that has elected a Republican so we know how to win in that
kind of environment.
It means putting together not just Republicans but also Independents and Moderate Democrats
to form a new type of coalition that can propel you to victory and we tend to do that statewide.
Craig: Interesting.
What do you say is the most important thing that you learned in your four years as a state
representative?
Knute: Yeah, it's been a wonderful experience.
Representing the people of the city of Bend, and I've really had a front row seat in
the legislature.
A front row seat to really the mismanagement of the state of Oregon, the mismanagement
of the state of Oregon by Governor Brown, really a failure in leadership.
Overall the Brown administration has been a series of really, of big mistakes in terms
of the Oregon Heath Authority in terms of administration important state programs and
it's time we solved these big problems and put some confidence back in how we're going

Craig: You describe yourself as pro-choice, you've criticized President Trump and earned
the ire of some gun rights activists when you voted to close the so called "boyfriend
loophole."
That's lead some to say that you're not a conservative.
How do you react to that?
Knute: Yeah, I reject all those kinds of labels, Craig.
I think those labels increasingly divide us and importantly don't describe any of us
very well so I'm very fiscally conservative, but I'm also an independent-minded person,
I like to lead with an open mind, a caring heart and a thoughtful voice and I take the
issues based on what I think is best, what I think is best for every Oregonian no matter
who you are, where you live, or even what party you're registered to vote in, so I
will, if necessary, if I think my party is wrong, I'll make an independent decision
and you've mentioned some of them which I think my party has gotten off-track a little
bit.
Craig: Ok, we're gonna take a quick commercial break; we'll much more in a moment.
Stay with us.
Craig: Welcome back to our Five on 5, again we're here with Republican candidate for
Governor and State Representative Knute Buehler.
Want to ask you about PERS, huge problem in Oregon.
As Governor, how would you fix it?
Knute: Yeah, great question.
It's the 900 lb. gorilla in Oregon politics that really has to be fixed because it is
eating revenue that should be going to our kids, or to providing health care to transportation
infrastructure.
It's a problem that has to be fixed.
It is a moral imperative.
It really is a moral imperative for loyal public employees who are depending on those
dollars, and also for kids who don't have the high quality schools that I'd like to
see.
This is what I would do as Governor, I will not sign a single new spending bill until
I have a PERS reform bill on my desk and here's some of the features I want to see in that
bill and we need to end the Bellotti payouts or the $50,000 a month payouts that we see
right now.
Cap it at about $150,000 a year.
Second thing I'd like to see is public employees need to pay into their own retirement plan,
and third we need to actually bring PERS to an end.
People who have had their liabilities generated, we need to honor those so past contracts need
to be honored, but going forward everyone's transitioned to a more typical 401k plan.
You know, those things will save hundreds of millions of dollars, put money back into
the schools and important social services.
It's vital problem that needs to be fixed and unfortunately Governor Brown has ignored
it her entire time in Salem, it needs to be fixed.
Craig: I'm sure you're familiar with the term "two Oregon's."
There's the Portland/Willamette Valley and the rest of the state, you're from, you
represent an Eastern Oregon, you're in Southern Oregon right now, how do you work to convince
the Portland market, you know, the Independents there as much as anybody else, to vote Republican?
Knute: Yeah, I think certainly we have experience, I represent Bend which is, you know, a very
Democratic city, we have good experience in talking to Independent voters and importantly
even Democratic voters about issues that they really care about.
Housing, health care, homelessness; those are issues that transcend party divisions.
There's solutions to those and people want solutions to those problems no matter if you're
Republican or Democrat and I'll clearly lead on those issues where Governor Brown
has failed over her last four years as Governor, it's time to fix these types of big problems
that have been avoided, ignored and made a lot worse by Governor Brown the last 3 years.
Craig: I know how busy you are, appreciate you coming by.
Thanks very much.
Knute: Yeah, thanks a lot Craig: Good to see you.
Alright, stay with us, we'll be right back.

The Kanye Effect Chance The Rapper Says Black People Don't Have To Be Democrats And Melts The Internet
The same day Kanye West set the internet on fire by tweeting explicit support for President Donald Trump, Chance the Rapper voiced support for freedom of thought. Black people dont have to be democrats, he tweeted Wednesday evening.
The Grammy Award-winning musical talent has been open about his support for Democrats like twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
His tweet was certainly not an assertion to Republican ideology, but, more importantly, an expression of support for freedom of thought, seemingly taking a note from Kanye.
Yet, such a tame and accurate statement set the internet on fire. Within just an hour of posting, the tweet received over 100,000 likes and more than 37,000 replies. Heres a small taste of the backlash (warning: language):.
The free thinking endorsed by Chance is vital to and desperately missing from current discourse. As Fox News Greg Gutfeld noted about Kanyes recent pro-free-thought tweets, Theres nothing scarier to a leftist than a free thinker. Kanye challenged the mob, added Gutfeld.
Their goal is to stigmatize, he said. Smears always shut down debate.. Hopefully there will be more brave souls in the public arena, especially Democrats, who vocally support free-thinking individuals and reject demonization of those who hold different views.

Talking About Likes and Dislikes in English - Spoken English Lesson - Duration: 13:44.
Hi, I'm Stephanie.
Welcome to Oxford Online English!
In this lesson, you can learn how to talk about things you like or dislike in English.
What do you like doing most of all?
What's your favourite thing to do?
What things do you have to do regularly, but you aren't so keen on?
What about the things you can't stand doing?
Can you think of something you really hate?
During this lesson, you'll learn how to talk about things that you like and dislike using
clear, natural English.
Let's go back to a question you heard before: what's your favourite thing to do?
So, what kind of music are you into?
I'm a big fan of blues, classic soul, things like that.
I really love Billie Holliday and a lot of stuff from that era.
What about you?
I listen to a lot of different stuff, but what I really like is hip-hop.
Do you listen to music a lot at home?
Oh sure, all the time.
My favourite thing to do at the end of a long day is put on a record and just chill out
on the sofa with some good tunes.
Record?
You mean vinyl?
Of course!
There's no other way to listen.
I wouldn't go that far!
Music makes me happy wherever I am.
I can listen on my phone, at home, on vinyl, on CD…
I don't care.
I just like it!
Here, you heard several useful phrases to talk about things you really like.
Can you remember any of them?
If you really like something, you can say:
I really love…
I'm a big fan of…
What I really like is…
My favourite thing to do is… … makes me happy
In the gap, you can put a noun, or an -ing verb.
For example:
I really love seafood.
Or: I really love swimming in the sea.
This is true for all these phrases.
Look at two more:
I'm a big fan of 80s glam rock.
I'm a big fan of listening to music when I go jogging.
You can also vary some of these phrases, to make them stronger or weaker, or just to add
variety.
For example:
What I really enjoy is getting up late on a Sunday and going for coffee with friends.
My absolute favourite food is spicy chicken wings.
Doing yoga in the morning makes me feel good.
Okay, what about you?
Can you make some sentences using these phrases?
You can talk about music, or any other topic you like.
Pause the video and write down two or three sentences, using the language from this section.
Ready?
Let's move on to part two.
Where shall we go?
How about pizza?
Errgh…
I'm not keen on the pizza places around here.
There's a Chinese place nearby which is supposed to be alright.
Want to check it out?
Honestly, I don't like Chinese food so much.
I quite like Japanese food, though.
Are there any Japanese places around here?
No, don't think so.
That doesn't help then.
Indian?
Spicy food isn't my thing.
KFC?
Yeah…
KFC's alright.
Let's go to KFC.
So, we live in a town with all these great restaurants, and we're going to KFC?
Seriously?
What's wrong with KFC?
It's not bad.
Fine, let's go.
In this dialogue, you heard phrases to talk about low-level likes and dislikes.
If you like something, but not that much, how can you say that?
Here are the three ways you heard:
I quite like…
It's alright.
It's not bad.
The word alright doesn't mean that something is good by itself.
However, with a positive intonation, it can mean that you like something.
Again, you can use these phrases with a noun or an -ing verb, like this:
I quite like going for a short walk after lunch.
The film was alright.
This garlic sauce is not bad!
What if you don't like something?
What could you say?
Here are the phrases you heard in the dialogue:
I'm not keen on…
I don't like … so much … isn't my thing
Let's see how you could use them:
I'm not keen on horror films.
I don't like going to the gym so much.
Getting up early isn't my thing.
Again, you can use many of these phrases in different ways, by changing or adding words.
For example:
I quite enjoy cycling.
I'm not massively keen on that plan.
Spending hours sitting on the beach isn't exactly my thing.
What about you?
In our dialogue, we talked about food.
Can you use the language you've seen to make two or three sentences about yourself?
You can write about food, or any other topic.
For extra practice, say your sentences out loud.
Say them several times, until the pronunciation is comfortable.
Try to remember them, so that you can say them without reading.
This way, you'll remember the language better.
Pause the video and write your sentences now; start again when you're ready.
Okay, you've seen how to talk about things you like a lot, or things you like a little.
But what if you really don't have an opinion about something?
What a great movie!
What did you think?
It was okay.
You didn't like it?
I didn't mind it.
I've seen better; I've seen worse.
You're difficult to please, aren't you?
I thought it was amazing!
Don't you think he's a great director?
I really like everything he's made.
I don't have strong opinions about him.
So, what do you like?
Honestly, I haven't seen many movies that have impressed me recently.
I saw that new 'Blade Runner' film.
And, you didn't like it?
Meh…
I could take it or leave it.
You're annoying.
Anyway, what shall we do now?
Get a drink, or something to eat?
I'm not bothered either way, to be honest.
In that dialogue, I did not have a lot of strong feelings about, well, anything really.
Can you remember the words and phrases I used to express this?
Often, you can express this kind of idea just with a word or a gesture.
Imagine you're watching something on TV, and someone asks you if it's a good show
or not.
You can express that it's neither good nor bad by making a 'meh' noise and shrugging.
However, there are also some useful phrases you can use, such as:
It's okay.
I don't mind…
I don't have strong opinions about…
I can take it or leave it.
I'm not bothered either way about…
Like the phrases you've seen in other sections, you can use these with a noun or an -ing verb,
except for I can take it or leave it, which is a fixed phrase, meaning that you can use it
as a response to someone else's question or suggestion.
Let's see how you could use these phrases to talk about different things:
The modern art museum was okay.
I don't mind doing housework.
I don't have strong opinions about which curtains we buy.
I'm not bothered either way about where we go.
When you use okay, like the word alright, a lot depends on your intonation.
The word okay literally means 'not good and not bad'.
However, with positive intonation, it can have a positive meaning, like quite good.
With negative intonation, it can mean something like not very good.
Listen to the difference: It's okay!
It's okay.
It's okay.
In this way, okay can mean different things.
Also, the phrase I'm not bothered either way is more informal, and could sound rude
or dismissive if you use it in the wrong situation, so think about where you are and who you're
talking to before you say it.
So, it's your turn to practice again!
Can you think of a movie or TV show that was just okay—not that good, and not that bad?
Your job is to write three sentences about yourself using the language from this
section.
If you can't think of a movie or TV show to talk about, you can choose a different
topic.
Pause the video and write your sentences now.
Okay?
Finally, let's see how you can talk about things you hate.
That's IT!
I'm finished with that place.
I'm definitely quitting this time!
I can't work there another day.
What happened now?
He is the worst manager ever!
I can't stand working with him.
I used to like going to work, but now I absolutely hate it!
I have to find another job.
You know you've been saying that for…
Ooh…
Since I met you?
Yeah, but this time I mean it.
Even the little things are starting to drive me crazy, like the way he fidgets with his
coffee cup when he talks.
So, have you started looking for a new job?
Not yet, but I will.
I need a change.
What about your colleagues?
I thought you got on well with them.
Some of them are alright, but I have no time for that woman in the accounts department.
I really dislike the HR guy, too, whatever his name is.
You know, maybe you should be less negative.
If you go to work with that kind of attitude, I'm not surprised you clash with people.
What do you mean, negative?
I can't stand people telling me what to do!
What are you even talking about?
I have no time for people like you and your stupid advice…
Okay, here you heard a lot of phrases to talk about something—or someone—you strongly
dislike.
Can you remember any of them?
If you really dislike something, you can say:
I can't stand…
I absolutely hate… … drives me crazy.
I have no time for…
I really dislike…
As before, you use these phrases with a noun or an -ing verb.
For example:
I can't stand people who cut in line.
I absolutely hate every song he's ever made.
Walking behind someone who walks really slowly drives me crazy!
Some of these phrases are more general.
You can use I can't stand…, I absolutely hate…, or I really dislike… to talk about
anything: people, things, or activities.
However, with the other two phrases, you would use them to talk about people and
their habits.
For example:
She's always late, which drives me crazy.
I have no time for people who say nice things to your face, then gossip behind your back.
Okay, what about you?
It's your last practice: pause the video, and write three sentences about things you
strongly dislike.
Use the language from this section, and start again when you're ready.
How was that?
Could you use the language easily?
Did you check to make sure you didn't make any mistakes?
Finally, we have a question for you: what do you like or dislike most about studying
English?

Did 03 Greedo Get Sent to Jail? - Duration: 0:57.
What's up, guys?
Frazier here for Complex News with some unfortunate developments regarding Rap Twitter darling
03 Greedo.
Judging from his tweets, it looks like the rapper is headed back to jail.
It all started on Tuesday when Greedo tweeted, "Pray for me at court this week."
Things quickly went south from there.
Greedo followed that on Wednesday with a tweet that read "These racist judges ain't playing
fair."
An hour later, he went into further detail.
Sorry i let my fans down.
At least we got some great music before i left yall.
I wish i coulda stayed with my family but life isnt fair to some of us.
Plenty music will be released while im gone.
Promise me you will love me forever.
Never thought id have to retire the year I blew up.
But shit was fun
Jesus, that last part is sad.
At press time the specifics on Greedo's situation are unclear, but the verbiage in
his tweets makes it sound like if he is indeed back in jail, it's not for a skid bid.
We'll update this story as we learn more about it.
Until then, keep that Wolf of Grape St on repeat.
For Complex News, I'm Frazier.

Different Types of Quiet Person There Are, So Which Are You? - Duration: 3:47.
Different Types of Quiet Person There Are, So Which Are You?
In our everyday environment, we will surely find a variety of people in different types
of characteristics.
In some of the environments and societies we encounter.
We will usually find a quiet person, which may be said to have their own traits.
Several signs that shows someone is a quiet person such as like to be alone, rarely talk,
tend to be shy, a bit of laugh, having little of friends, and more.
However, there are several types of quiet person that we can find.
So, here it is.
#1 - The real quiet person
This type of quiet is the real quiet.
It is a quiet retirement.
Often we meet our friends, both in school, and in the college.
This type of quiet person is often found happy to be at the end of the class road or corner
of the class.
For a moment as you stare intently at them, they give an empty look, yet some people think
that it is adorable gaze because it is so mysterious, which makes you want to immediately
open their disgrace behind their back.
You need to believe that they have their own reasons why they are quiet like that.
#2 - The quiet person in a moment
This type of quiet person is sometimes attractive.
He or she is someone who is very cheerful, but can be quiet for a moment.
Usually, the thing that keeps him or her quiet is when he or she makes a mistake and makes
his or her closest person getting angry to him, let's say a boyfriend or girlfriend.
It is just that he has a tendency to mourn over it.
#3 - The Psycho quiet person
This type of quiet person is dangerous enough to be approached.
He is quiet for any purpose.
Maybe he has such a disservice to kill or conquer something.
Certainly, the empty gaze of the quietness of the eyes is different from the real quiet
person.
This kind of quiet more to the empty gaze full of lust and frightening air.
#4 - The thinker quiet person
Thinkers are usually not that good at conversation.
It is not because they are embarrassed to express their opinions, talk, or do not want
to come together, but there are a lot of things in their heads to think about.
They are very creative and imaginative.
This type of quiet person shows that they like to daydream.
They are often lost and drowned in their thinking.
#5 - The Anxious quiet person
They are anxious as if their presence may be damaging to the atmosphere.
There are many things worried them.
Usually, this kind of quiet person is not good in the conversation for fear of being
able to make awkwardness.
They cannot interact because they are too concerned about things that do not necessarily
happen.
So, they think it would be better to be quiet.
Quiet persons usually have a world of their own that is different from what most people
like.
For example, what is considered attractive by most people, does not necessarily to the
quiet person, and vice versa.
But, not all of the quiet person is really quiet one.
There is also the person in quiet that you need to be careful because they may have other
intentions
Well, at least that's the 5 different types of quiet person you should know, so which
one are you?
Really cool information isn't it?

Stupid in School -Animation - Duration: 4:31.
Alright, kids, up against the wall. It's time for public humiliation.
Spell a word wrong—sit down in front of your friends. That's great for little egos.
"Hey, look at me. I'm a moron. I wasn't even close. I was usin' numbers and stuff."
That's why I admired that kid who spelled it wrong on purpose so he could sit down. He knew he wasn't going to win, so why stand there for 3 hours.
First round. "Cat, K-A-T, I'm outta here." Then as he passed you, "Ha! I know there's 2 T's."
I remember my teacher asked me, "Brian, what's the 'i' before 'e' rule?"
"Um… i before e ... ALWAYS!"
"What are you, an idiot, Brian?"
"Apparently."
So she explains it, "No, Brian, it's: 'i' before 'e' except after 'c' and when sounding like 'a' as in neighbor and weigh and on weekends and holidays and all throughout May and you'll always be wrong no matter what you say."
That's a hard rule. That's a rough rule.
Plurals were hard, too.
"Brian, how do you make a word a plural?"
"You put a 's'…put a 's' at the end of it."
"When?"
"On weekends and holidays."
"No, Brian. Let me show you." So she asked this kid who knew everything. Irwin. "Irwin, what's the plural for ox?"
"Ox. Oxen. The farmer used his oxen."
"Brian?"
"What?"
"Brian, what's the plural for box?" "Boxen. I bought 2 boxen of doughnuts."
"No, Brian, no. Let's try another one. Irwin, what's the plural for goose?"
"Geese. I saw a flock of geese."
"Brian?"
[Exasperated laughing]"Wha-a-at?"
"What's the plural for moose?"
"Moosen! I saw a flock of MOOSEN! There were many of 'em. Many much moosen. Out in the woods…in the wood-es…in the woodsen. The meese want the food in the woodesen…food is the eatenesen…the meese want the food in the woodesenes…food in the woodesenes."
"Brian. Brian! You're an imbecile."
"Imbecilen!"
"What? Are you speaking German, Brian?"
"German… Germaine… Germaine… Jackson… Jackson 5… Tito!"
"Brian, what the hell are you talking about?"
"I don't know. I don't know, really."

The Ravens wanted Dez Bryant but settled for Willie Snead.
Baltimore has indeed shown the most interest in signing Bryant, but the two sides couldnt agree on contract length, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Wednesday, via a source informed of the situation.
The Ravens needed a multiyear deal to fit Bryants number under the salary cap, per Rapoport. The former Cowboys star, conversely, is seeking a one-year contract that will enable him to test the market again in 2019.
In other words, Bryant is banking on a bounce-back year to rehabilitate his league-wide value. Thats a high-risk approach for a player attempting to reverse the decline phase of his career.
The Ravens offer was pretty lucrative, Rapoport added on NFL Up to the Minute, in the neighborhood of the three-year, $21 million deal signed by Michael Crabtree.
Once it became evident that common ground wouldnt be reached, the Ravens switched gears, coaxing Snead away from the Saints with a two-year contract worth up to $10.
Bryant, meanwhile, has been left to twist in the wind, hoping the Giants have a change of heart in the coming weeks.
At this point, Rapoport reported earlier Wednesday, the Cowboys career leader in receiving touchdowns is expected to wait until after the draft before finding a new NFL home.
