Let's look at this the simpsons dunks. They are inspired by the Simpsons character, who is yellow, has blue hair, and wears a green dress. Matt Groening's hilarious cartoon comedy series "The Simpsons" is my absolute favourite TV programme – it's so witty and well-observed.
Simpsons Dunk High comes in a yellow upper, just like the Simpson head of the family head color. This Nike High Dunk Simpsons seems fashion and cool. The perforated leather used on the upper to keep the high breath ability. Nike Dunk Premium Simpson has blue shoelaces. You can see the vivid Simpsons on the side of the shoes heel. The distinguished pattern of Jimpsons' can fully arouse the customers' attention and Childhood memories.
Annual Pierogi Fest in Whiting, IN included dunking of nuns, cream soda, warm apple dumplings, kebabs, and of course, an epic amount of pierogis. Yum.
3 years on the resort at dunk island has not been rebiult following the devastation by cyclone yasi . But we enjoyed the anchorage and the beach :)
On the crown of a long ridge near the Antietam Creek in north central Maryland, stands a little Dunker Church that continues to render a silent testimony to the horror of a one day battle that surrounded it on September 17, 1862, during the Civil War or the War Between the States. Its gleaming white walls became an early morning goal for the advancing Union army of General George B. McClellan who was attempting to dislodge the Confederate army of General Robert E. Lee from this ridge and prevent his northern advance into Union territory. Around 23,000 troops had been killed or wounded and six generals died in the countryside surrounding this alabaster jewel in what still remains the bloodiest day of fighting in the history of United States warfare. Prominently located next to the old Hagerstown Pike on ground donated to the newly formed congregation by Brethren farmer Samuel Mumma, the little Dunker Church would be surrounded by Confederate forces during morning hours, possessed by Union infantry for brief moments, reclaimed by the Confederacy, modified into a field hospital for wounded and dying soldiers by evening, and finally a post battle refuge for peaceful conversation between both armies the next day.
Early morning light gleaming over South Mountain bathed the white exterior church walls, making its luminescence easily visible to Union officers who instructed their units to move toward it by crossing a thirty-acre corn field. Morning hours saw cannonballs and rifle bullets piercing its walls and studding its rafters. By evening it became a makeshift hospital that heard shrieks of pain and unending moans, this in stark contrast to praises of God and melodies of worship. Sermons echoing victory through the Blood of Christ were disquieted by human blood that splattered defeat on its wooden furniture. Hope was exchanged for despair and life replaced with death. Unimaginable horror continually announced itself through a stream of mangled soldiers being carried into the little Dunker Church, because of its immediate proximity to the Corn Field where most of the morning slaughter had occurred. So furious and chaotic was the maddening exchange of gunfire, canister, and shell cannon in this now famous Miller Cornfield, that Union General Joseph Hooker stated: “In the time I am writing, every stalk of corn in the greater part of the field was cut as closely as could have been done with a knife.” A horrific sight of dead bodies, many laying on the ground as if still in formation: “the slain lay in rows precisely as they had stood in their ranks a few moments before” (Hooker). Another unknown witness testified that the Corn Field “was so full of bodies that a man could have walked through it without stepping on the ground.” Union troops had failed to dislodge the Confederate left flank, and would spend the afternoon trying to penetrate their center at the Sunken Road or Bloody Lane and finally on their right at Burnside Bridge. This engagement would be remembered by the Union as the Battle of Antietam because McClellan's headquarters was near this stream, and by the Confederacy as the Battle of Sharpsburg because Lee's headquarters was located in this nearby town.
When the killing and movement of troops finally halted at the end of this one day battle, the lines of entrenchment were not that much different from where they originated that same morning. Although this bloodiest day of fighting produced no clear winner, historians usually give Lee the dishonor of defeat because he was unable to continue his northern advance into Union territory. But it could also be argued as a minor victory for the Confederacy when considering that Lee's 37,000 troops were able to withstand a much larger force of McClellan's 56,000 and that President Lincoln fired McClellan over repeated hesitancies to capitalize on fortunes of opportunity. Because the Union army possessed almost twice the number of troops, it has been called the battle that McClellan could not lose and Lee could not win.
The magnitude of death witnessed on the Antietam Battlefield was nine times greater than the number killed and wounded on June 6, 1944 ( D-Day ) the so-called “longest day” of World War II. Six Generals died in the heat of battle this day, the exact spots where they fell now marked by cannon barrels mounted in concrete. More soldiers were killed and wounded during this one day of battle than the total number of deaths of all Americans in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, the Mexican War, and the Spanish-American War combined. Eye-witnesses stated that the Cornfield - Dunker Church fighting lasted about three hours.
Every second, a husband or father or son was dying. The stillness of a quiet countryside heard the roar of cannons and the agony of men. Sweet air was exchanged for the smoke of gunpowder. All before the Little Dunker Church where the Brethren preached a message of peace and non-violence.

An impulse buy because I got sick of waiting for a cool SB Dunk low to come out. Now they are beat to shit.
Active Weekly May 31st - June 7th: Illusion
Description:
For this assignment I had the idea of just flipping through the dictionary and randomly selecting a few words and then I was going to choose the assignment from that list. The word selected ended up being the first one I found: illusion. Illusion is defined as something which deceives by making a false or misleading impression of reality. I want you to take this however you'd like. I love seeing a variety of photos. This could be an optical illusion or just something that may not be what it seems. You could even make a short story in your description to go along with your picture to explain what makes it an illusion (For example: having a picture of an innocent looking child and then explain that they are in fact a highly dangerous assassin). Get creative and have some fun!

Again I went to my pool of students (which will not be accessible for the next two months!) for help on this one. I gave Leeland a basketball and asked him to give me his best dunk pose. Unfortunately (or fortunately for this assignment) it was not high enough, so I had to give him a little help in photoshop.
WIT: Two photos, one of an empty court and the other with Leeland's dunk. In photoshop cut out Leeland and his shadow and placed them on the empty court. Cloned out an onlooker and some piping on the wall.
Once we got home, Molly opened up and built her dunk tank. Then it was time to start tossing the ball. Nacho the dog is ready to get wet.
This seems to be one of those bizarre baby dunking rituals you keep hearing about. Up till now I just thought they were an urban legand, but this photo is positive proof that such things exist.
It's hard for me to understand such things, so I can't explain why the dunker in the middle is wearing a 70's style fast food employee hat. It must have some special meaning as part of the ritual.
Who do YOU want to dunk at your next event? Call today to rent a dunk tank for your church picnic, company party, or birthday party! 918-291-JUMP www.jumpinjiminyinc.com
Shot from 2006 when I still had some SBs and Pro Bs left. I sold a lot of these and moved on to air force 1s because dunks were really getting too much attention at that point.
