After a season full of injuries, drama and doubt, the New York Yankees have something to be happy about. Second baseman Robinson Cano received the Silver Slugger Award for his production in offense this past season. He was the most consistent player on the team this past season and was one of a very limited number of veterans who stayed healthy throughout.
Cano beat out the rest of the second basemen in the AL for the title of best hitter, basically. He had a .314 batting average, 27 home runs and 107 RBIs. Clearly, these statistics prove that he deserved the award. He was the hottest hitter for the Yankees, a team who's lineup was half filled with backups and names that most people hadn't heard of.
Along with having the best bat, he proved to not only his teammates, but the whole organization that he can lead a team. He led a lineup that did not include the names of Mark Teixeira, Derek Jeter (most of the season), Alex Rodriguez for half of the season and Kevin Youkilis, who played in 28 games. Without those veterans, it seemed all hope was lost, but Cano did the best he could with what he had.
By winning this award, the Yankees' executives should really make a push to re-sign Cano as soon as possible. He is a free agent at the current moment, and it would be a shame if he decides to play elsewhere. This past season, he made a statement to his club saying he should stay. With the award, he added an exclamation mark at the end.

Sadr's War
Tuesday, March 4, 2008; 12:29 PM
There were few losers in Muqtada al-Sadr's decision to extend the cease-fire (NYT) of his Mahdi Army on February 22. The anti-American cleric and his large Shiite militia have emerged as a powerful force in the evolving Iraqi power structure. The vow to keep guns holstered for another six months is cause for celebration in U.S. quarters. "This extension . . . is an important commitment that can broadly contribute to further improvements in security for all Iraqi citizens," the U.S. military said in a statement.
And yet the biggest winner may be Sadr himself. The Washington Post reports the cleric's decision marks "another step in his transformation from guerrilla chieftain to political leader." Others saw the move as part of Sadr's long-term strategy to beef up political and military credentials while biding time for a possible troop withdrawal during the next U.S. presidential administration. "The game in Iraq is not over," CFR's Vali R. Nasr told TIME.
A lack of political progress, including the recent Iraqi government rejection of a parliamentary measure setting up provincial elections, has been viewed as a setback for U.S.-backed national reconciliation efforts. But signs on the security front are more encouraging. Civilian violence -- which increased slightly in February 2008 for the first time in months, according to the website Iraqbodycount.org and several Iraqi ministries (BBC) -- is significantly down from 2006 levels. U.S. military officials say they will recommend a pause in troop withdrawals (Reuters) to help consolidate the gains. Sadr's ceasefire is also expected to contribute to the calm (IRIN), though much of the progress had shown up in statistical studies well before the cleric's February 22 truce extension.
Over the last six months, Sadr has strengthened his political base (AFP) in parliament and purged rogue elements from his militia, sometimes with deadly conviction (WashPost). The cleric also spent time in Najaf studying to become an ayatollah (al-Arabiya) -- an endeavor Babak Rahimi of the Jamestown Foundation says could enhance Sadr's political and religious authority (giving him the ability to issue a fatwa, for instance), not to mention open access to religious funding sources. CFR's Mohamad Bazzi says such positioning could give Sadr a leg up in his drive for regional dominance. The cleric is locked in an inter-sectarian power struggle with rival Abdul Aziz al-Hakim, whose Supreme Iraqi Islamic Council -- the largest Shiite party in parliament -- is backed by the United States and Iran. "Sadr is taking a long view," Bazzi argues in the Nation, "showing greater political skill than the United States and his Iraqi rivals usually give him credit for."
The accolades, however, may not reflect a deliberate plan. Patrick Cockburn, the veteran Iraq correspondent of the Independent newspaper, says the Mahdi Army's truce decision was born reluctantly out of a need to repair its reputation (NPR) as "an enormous death squad." That image -- blackened during the group's violent purge of Sunnis from Baghdad in 2006 and clashes with Hakim's Badr Brigade -- prompted Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani to encourage a cease-fire as early as January 2007. The Economist writes that Sadr's decision to heed the request was likely made easier by urgings from supporters in Shiite-dominated Iran.
What Sadr plans to do with round-two of his ceasefire is not entirely clear. As the Economist notes in the article above, "people still know more of what the Sadrists are against -- Baathists, federalism, a continued American presence in Iraq, for example -- than what they are for." Some of the Mahdi Army's sixty-thousand fighters, including those who believe opponents used the ceasefires to target them (LAT), are equally pessimistic. "Now, after this statement, we can't defend ourselves," one fighter told the Daily Star of Lebanon. U.S. officials, too, suggest Sadr's political influence is waning (TIME). In the end, though, the only real option for Sadr's opponents may be to come to terms with his rising political star. The International Crisis Group concludes that the U.S. response to Madhi Army violence, including the arrest of Sadrists, arming a tribal counterforce, and backing of his rival, is "understandable but shortsighted" (PDF). The report concludes: "It is fanciful to expect the Mahdi Army's defeat."

Luxury hotels such as Four Seasons, Park Hyatt, Ritz-Carlton and Mandarin Oriental are filling 73 percent of their rooms on average, surpassing their pre-recession peak, according to an Associated Press analysis of data from hotel research firm STR.
But budget hotels like Days Inn, Econo Lodge and Motel 6 are still below their 10-year occupancy average and more than 3 percentage points below their peak.
The same pattern holds for fliers.
Domestic traffic is projected to grow 0.7 percent this summer, while the number of people buying more expensive international tickets will climb 2.6 percent, according to Airlines for America.
"Expect luxury travel to continue to rebound — consistent with luxury across all industries — while the rest of summer travel will be flat" as the economy still weighs heavily on middle-income families, says Adam Weissenberg, who heads the travel and hospitality consulting group at Deloitte.
But some less-expensive destinations are seeing a recovery.
Campgrounds fared well during the downturn because they are relatively affordable. Some are now doing better business than ever because the operators have retooled their facilities to entice visitors beyond the typical outdoor types.
Steve Stafford, general manager of North Texas Jellystone Park Camp-Resort in Burleson, Texas, has attracted a broader swath of people with "homesteads." These are recreational vehicles that look like cottages. Now the camp can accommodate campers with tents who only have to pay $32 a night for an empty patch of ground and those who want to stay in the comfort of the largest homesteads for $209 a night.
The 37 existing homesteads were booked solid last year. So Stafford is adding a dozen new ones. Those are already booked, even though they are still being installed.
In recent years, the campground has added activities such as arts and crafts, live bands, laser tag, outdoor big-screen movies and theme weekends to try to lure people back. On the schedule for Memorial Day weekend: A chocolate pudding slip 'n slide.
The moves appear to be working.
"The way it's looking so far, we are going to be way up," Stafford says. "No matter how bad things get, people are going to take a vacation."
The hunt for inexpensive vacations is helping companies that recreational vehicles, too. Traveling by RV means families don't need to pay for hotels and can cook most of their meals. Families may not be ready to buy one — sales are only up slightly — but more are choosing to rent one this summer for as little as $100 a day, or $300 during peak weeks.
At El Monte RV, one of the country's largest RV rental companies, summer bookings from domestic customers are up 20 to 25 percent compared with last year.
"It has stunned us," says marketing director Joe Laing. "We're looking forward to this year. We think it's going to be a good one."
Businessmen and state officials on the Gulf Coast of Florida, Alabama and Mississippi are also hoping for a good summer. The tourism industry there was devastated by the BP oil spill of 2010. As part of a settlement, BP has been financing large advertising campaigns to get tourists back to the region.
"This is going to be the best summer season we've ever had," predicts Tish Williams, executive director of the Hancock County Chamber of Commerce in Mississippi.
Williams has spent $962,000 in BP grants to market her county and a new science center there to tourists in northern Mississippi and neighboring Louisiana.
In Florida, the Pensacola Bay Area Convention and Visitors Bureau says lodging tax revenue is up 7.5 percent this year. The tourism industry has spent BP money as far north as Chicago — a 14-hour drive away — to lure new visitors.
But the most pampered vacationers this summer might not even be human.
The Barkley Pet Hotel & Spa in Westlake Village, Calif., is booked solid this Memorial Day. After a recent 18,000-square-foot expansion — another doggie day camp area for small dogs, another grooming salon and spa and another wing of luxury suites — there is now room for 250 pets.
This summer, they can attend ice cream socials, surf in a beach-like pool or play in the day camps, which are shaded by cabanas and cooled by misters.
Some might say the pets have it better off than their traveling owners.

A WAR veteran went to Buckingham Palace for a special audience with the Duke of York.
Ravensthorpe-born Maurice Wood was over the moon to meet Prince Andrew at an event for soldiers who fought in the Battle of Kohima in World War II.
The battle, fought in 1944, was a turning point in the war as it halted the Japanese advance and forced them back East.
In May, Prince Andrew visited the area where the fight took place in northeast India and was impressed with the legacy the British troops had left.
He then invited around 20 veterans of the battle to Buckingham Palace so he could personally thank them for their achievements.
Mr Wood said: "I was shocked when I got the invite. I didn't expect that."
He was told about the event by the organiser of a Kohima reunion he attends in York each year.
In October Mr Wood got his official invite from Buckingham Palace, asking him to meet the Duke of York on November 1.
Mr Wood, of Queen Street, Ravensthorpe, went to the Palace with his niece, Janet Griffiths.
Mrs Griffiths, 64, of Church Lane, Mirfield, said: "It was a wonderful day. My uncle was on cloud nine.
"I'm just so pleased that the veterans were recognised and were able to go."
Prince Andrew met all of the veterans in groups, and spoke one-on-one with Mr Wood, who served with the Royal Artillery.
"He was a very nice fellow, absolutely lovely to talk to," Mr Wood said.
He said their conversation focussed on what happened at the Battle of Kohima.
Mr Wood, 94, said: "The importance of the Battle of Kohima is that the Japanese did not come any further West than Kohima, and that's why the Duke was impressed.
"The Japanese had been advancing for two or three years and we thought, 'How long are we going to last?' but we did it."

Boston, MA, 04/07/2014 (usastockreports) – Mastercard Inc (NYSE:MA) has stayed a dominating player in the global payment services arena. In the recent developments Mastercard cannot provide its purchase payment services in some of the approved banks in the country. This is applicable even after the withdrawal of the suspensions. It is because now Russia doesn't wants to be dependent on the global payment services arena that can be affected anytime by the U.S. sanctions. To take things it its own hands, Russia is planning to get its own domestic payment system in the coming six months.
The beginning of the problem
All these problems started when the U.S sanctioned some of the Russian Investors. The list included some of the famous names like Boris Rotenberg who is one of the co-owner of SMP Bank. Later the matter became worse when the Mastercard decided to withdraw the credit card purchasing payment services for some of authorized banks. The withdrawal was limited to the credit card purchasing payment services and didn't have any kind of impact on the cash withdrawal services. Due to the steps taken up by Mastercard, the clients of the affected banks have to face serious problems.
Russia's course of action
Seeing the current situation, the country had decided to introduce the domestic payment system that will include electronic payment card for its citizens. The card is expected to fulfill two types of transactions- the first government related transactions and the second is private purchase payment.
What the future holds?
Looking at the number of people who use credit cards in Russia, it is clear that Russians don't like to use credit cards for their transactions. Instead they like to use debit cards for any kind of transactions. It will therefore hardly have any impact on the market share of the Mastercard in Russia. In the long run the company is going to increase its reach in the global market that will help it to cover up the loss of market share made in Russian market.

HP is buying Palm
Was just announced on CNBC.
HP to Acquire Palm for $1.2 Billion - Yahoo! Finance
Makes no sense to me. Palm was floundering and there's no sense in HP trying again in handsets.
Palm was over $10 as recently as February, so anyone owning from there is having to sell at $5.70.
Beat you by 2 minutes :-)
And we had the same sort of commentary. Remember that Palm did a 1:20 reverse split a few years ago.

Beer, brats and wiener dogs – it's a weird combination, but it's what makes the Oktoberfest Northwest such a freakishly interesting collision of culture and food. Beer and brats are served all weekend, the wiener dog races are Sunday only.
For beer: Prepare yourself for a mild irritation. You have to stand in two lines for beer. First, buy a ticket at the ticket booth marked for beer ticket purchase. Then, take your ticket to the bar at the back of the Showplex and swap your ticket for a plastic cup of beer or wine. A beer last year cost $6. The beer tickets last year could be purchased for cash or credit.
Beer list this year: Warsteiner Dunkel, Warsteiner Oktoberfest, Hofbrau Oktoberfest, Paulaner Munich Lager, Paulaner Hefeweizen, Hacker-Pschorr Maibock and Snoqualmie Harvest Moon.
Food: Last year, the restaurants were set up at four take-out windows and a few kiosks. Lines were long last year. Warning: If it's set up the same this year, you will need to bring cash for the food. The four cafes I visited didn't take cards last year. There are cash machines just outside the Showplex.
Food prices: Last year, the cheapest items were in the $7 range and that didn't get you much (a bratwurst or small sandwich). This isn't a grazing event, most of the food is served in pretty big portions. Expect most meals to cost at least $10.
My favorite meal from last year: Bruno's served my favorite dishes last year. I rate the Parkland restaurant the best in the region for German and Eastern European food (it's like eating in your best friend's grandma's kitchen). Last year, Bruno's served a roast pork dinner ($10) and I see it's on the menu again. The name of the dish is schweinebraten, which is about as fun to eat as it is to say. Last year, roasted pork was topped with a thin gravy and came with two of my favorite Bruno's side dishes – potato salad – potatoes pushed through a ricer and flavored with a hit of vinegar – and the cafe's sauerkraut. This year, they've got that menu item listed and also cabbage rolls in a tomato sauce, curry wurst, bratwurst and kartoffelpuffer, potao pancakes with apple sauce and sour cream.
Perfect beer food: If you've been to a food festival around here, you've probably encountered the Zieglers bratwurst people. Last year, I ordered their spicy brat ($7.50) and thought it was one of the better deals served – and also perfect food to go with beer, naturally. My brat was served on a hoagie and came with a healthy pile of sauteed onions and kraut. The best part was that I could eat it while walking around – which I did while watching the yodelers perform.
Also on the menu this year: Crepe Chalet will sell crepes, stroganoff and a German burger. Kaleenka will sell piroshkies. Gutes Essen Haus will return with a pork schnitzel plate or schnitzel sandwich, also brats and apple fritters.
Last year: Read my full review of last year's eats and see photos of all of last year's menus here.
Where to sit: Long rows of tables right in front of the stage, and cafe tables scattered throughout the showplex.
Kids stuff: Kids are welcome during daytime hours. Last year, kid activities included a pumpkin painting table and a bag toss.
Entertainment: Singing on the stage throughout the weekend. Also, there's lots and lots of dancing (that's what happens at a beer festival). I also saw a group of people in the outdoor beer garden singing in German last year – on key, even. Pretty sure they weren't paid entertainers, but they were just as fun to watch.
Wiener dog races: Only dogs registered for the race are allowed at the festival. The dachshund races take place Sunday only. Click here for details.
Oktoberfest is housed in the Americraft Showplex building, so it's all indoors, although that's really not something of concern if the weather report is accurate – it looks like it will be sunny for much of the weekend.
Oktoberfest Northwest 2012
When: Friday Oct. 5 – Sunday Oct. 7, 2012. Hours are 11 a.m.-midnight Friday and Saturday and 11 a.m.-6 p.m. Sunday

Admission: $10 on Oct. 5-6, $5 on Oct. 7. Kids always free. Free admission also 11 a.m-3 p.m. Oct. 5.
Parking: Free, enter through the blue gate
Bring cash, expect lines: A few things may slow you down. Last year, there were two lines for beer – one to get the ticket for beer, another for the actual beer. Also, the food vendors only accepted cash last year.
Oktoberfest in the Theater District
When: noon-10 p.m. Oct. 13
Where: Opera Alley (near St. Helens Avenue)
Cost: $5
Food: Stink and Puget Sound Pizza will serve food themed for the event. The Mix will sponsor a themed beer and wine garden with Oktoberfest and seasonal brews from local breweries.
Proceeds: Go to the Tacoma Theater District Association
Age: 21 and older only
Live music: Whoopee Cats (1-4), Palmer Junction (4-7) and Kim Archer Band (7-10)
Enumclaw Oktobeerfest
When: Oct. 19-20
Where: Enumclaw Expo Center; enumclawoktobeerfest.com
Admission: $20 for a two-day pass; purchase at the website or at retail locations listed on the website
Beers, brewing and brats will be at this festival, which will include more than 30 brews. Brewing seminars and bottling demonstrations will delve into the hoppier side of the beer trade. There will be dancing, singing and comedy delivered by John Keister of "Almost Live" local TV fame. This could be your chance to heckle him for all those Enumclaw and Buckley jokes.

Charlotte Cooper Introduction
Christened Mary-Charlotte Cooper, the astronomic rise of The Subways began when Charlotte met brothers Billy and Josh and took a liking to them. So much so that she and Billy were childhood sweethearts and announced they're engagement at a gig in 2005. They all started to jam and formed the Subways even though the world was not ready
Charlotte Cooper The Subways
Young For Eternity (2005)
After winning the prestigious Unsigned Band award at Glastonbury 2004, they began recording for their first album under the watchful eye of Ian Broudie, formerly of the Lightning Seeds. The album was released to not much of a fanfare but has helped them to earn a huge underground following of fans. These fans were largely gained by the awesome live performances the band gives. And it has been said on numerous occasions that the bands first record was nowhere near as good on record as it was performed live.
Interim and Problems
The band continued to tour the Young For Eternity record madly, embarking on America in the process and winning a 'Woodie' award in the process. However, there has been much despair since the first album came out. Billy has had many problems in the time between with nodes on his vocal chords causing them to miss gigs and abandon recording sessions. This problem came to a head when Billy had these nodes removed in 2007 amidst much fear that not only might he not sing again, but that he may not even speak again. In the recovery time, the band recorded many of the instrumental parts and the band became honed as a musically rocking outfit. During this obviously stressful time, Billy and Charlotte split and Billy's brother Josh was diagnosed with Asperger's. Billy did recover but the band was in a state of lieu In stepped Butch Vig, the legendary Nirvana; Nevermind producer....
All Or Nothing (2008)
Butch made the band, especially Billy strip their feelings bear and let it all out. This helped reconcile the band and give them a new focus. Billy has even said that he broke down crying on many occasions whilst recording these meaningful lyrics. The album is set for a June release and is set to be a hard-rocking blast of an album and will for once have people thinking that The Subways are indeed as good recorded as they are live. That being said, they never stop rocking live neither so expect good things.

Shaky camera isn't bad but you need to have the right hands to do it correctly.
The Bourne movies, while I love those movies, were a little irritating on the eyes from time to time, especially on the big-screen.
It doesn't bother me with films like Blair Witch or Cloverfield since they're filmed from the perspective of the characters who are meant to be recording what you see. When it's an action film and two people start fighting, I want to clearly see them getting at it and not have to try and figure out if what I'm looking at is a fist/head/knee/lampshade. It just isn't effective.

Unless you live under a rock you are bound to know about the 2012 change of the world – or end of the world – predictions and based on what the Keynesians have done to us, it sure looks like this is the year that it all will happen.. That's why I was really impressed by what a Business Insider article titled You Can't Solve A Debt Problem With More Debt, which basically is dead on, points out: the choices are all hard or bad, but we can not keep doing what the Keynesians have done for the last 2 or 3 decades. We where sold a huge lie by those that told us government could spend us into permanent prosperity, and do so while enforcing social justice, and pick the winners & losers. It's all nonsense, and the chickens are now coming home to roost. Get prepared! Happy New Year….

Katy Perry Goes Gatsby on Red Carpetby Free Britney at . Comments
Katy Perry was channeling her inner flapper Tuesday night.
The star, looking like a character straight out of The Great Gatsby, turned heads at a City of Hope event in Los Angeles with finger waves, a funky head piece in her hair, a long pearl necklace and a pink-ish dress that resembled a neglige.
In short ... she was sexy. See Katy Perry pictures below!
Once inside the event - at which the City of Hope's Music And Entertainment Industry Group honored Bob Pittman at The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA - Perry changed into a simpler black dress ... leaving us wanting more '20s.
What do you think of her look? Vintage? Elegant? Racy? All of the above?

Family Law
Ask a Family Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Hi Thank you for your question.
My name is Clare and I will do my best to help you but I need some further information first.
How much is the house worth and how much is outstanding on the mortgage?
How much is the Endowment policy worth?
Hi Clare
The house is worth approx £300K. I am not sure what the balance left on the mortgage is as my husband has all the papers. It has been running for 23 years.
best guess?
It is an endowment mortgage so difficult to obtain a balance outstanding. The mortgage has been increased several times to cover additional spending on fund an extension. I think the monthly repayments are in the region of £800 and due to run until Nov 2015
have you not seen a Statement?
My husband receives the statements and is reluctant to share them. Does the value outstanding on the mortgage have a major effect on the best way to proceed?
Thank you.
Can I really stop making contributions to the mortgage and not affect my position or interest in the property?
There should be no shortfall on the mortgage - probably a surplus.
Should I be worried that the family car was sold and the proceeds not shared?
I suspect a seperation agreement may be a good short term solution?

The True Christmas Longing
Contributed by Dan Cormie on Oct 25, 2002 (message contributor)
C.S. Lewis writes in "Mere Christianity":
"Most people, if they had really learned to look into their own hearts, would know that they do want, and want acutely, something that cannot be had in this world. There are all sorts of things in this world that offer to give it to you, but they never quite keep their promise. The longings which arise in us when we first fall in love, or first think of some foreign country, or first take up some subject that excites us, are longings which no marriage, no travel, no learning, can really satisfy.
"I am not speaking of what would ordinarily be called unsuccessful marriages, or holidays, or careers. I am speaking of the best possible ones. There was something we grasped at, in that first moment of longing, which just fades away in reality. I think everyone knows what I mean. The wife may be a good wife, and the hotels and scenery may have been excellent, and chemistry may be a very interesting job but something has evaded us."

The only thing I can say is that staying in sync with patches for those hogs is a nightmare, because developers supports only main release or the latest one available. Surely supporting pre-1.0 is like committing suicide, they are _not_ tought for production environments, but for testing. The only sane thing to do is removing from stable when major problems came up. Let me add that supporting for a couple of years a 0.8 (or 1.6 for mozilla) version, when much more complete versions 1.x (2.x) will be available in a few months is indeed a waste of time: users will upgrade to the latest anyway (by backports or using a vanilla binary, which is not a bad option at all in many cases for those programs). IMHO we should simply remove such kind of programs at the first point release and invite users to do the same and move to a newer version. This points us to the general problem that a 2-years time slice for releasing is a non-sense in the free-software world by many points of view, but it's surely true for 'workstation' use... > I'd be a bit wary of trying to provide security support for something as > fast moving as Firefox.

The DePaul University women's basketball team has had a lot to celebrate this year. After emerging as the 2014 regular-season BIG EAST champions, DePaul was the No. 1 seed heading into the conference tournament and is playing in the semifinals today (March 10). Take a look at what your Blue Demons have done lately!
Team Takes Regular-Season Title
This year DePaul won its first-ever BIG EAST regular-season title. The Blue Demons, who were a preseason favorite, finished with an overall record of 24-6, 15-3 in the conference. "It's really exciting being the first DePaul team to win a BIG EAST title," senior forward Jasmine Penny said. "This was one of the goals we had set at the beginning of the season."
BIG EAST Tournament Rolls On
The 2014 BIG EAST Women's Basketball Conference Championship tournament has come to DePaul. The tournament began March 8 at DePaul's McGrath-Phillips Arena. On March 9, DePaul faced Georgetown at Allstate Arena in the quarterfinals, winning 78-54. The team will play Marquette in the semifinals today, March 10, at 5:30 p.m. The title game, with the DePaul-Marquette winner facing the victor of the St. John's-Creighton match, will take place March 11 at 8 p.m. Both games will be televised on FOX Sports 1.
Bruno Wins Coach of the Year
After leading DePaul through an impressive regular season, coach Doug Bruno (LAS '73, MA '88) was named the BIG EAST Conference Coach of the Year last week. Bruno is in his 28th season as DePaul head coach, and this is his first time winning the BIG EAST award. As he told the Chicago Sun-Times, ''Coach of the year really means team of the year. It means you had the best players, the best support staff, the best boss, the best operation.''
Players Earn Honors
Multiple players earned conference and national honors during the regular season. Junior guard Brittany Hrynko was named the espnW national player of the week on March 3. Hrynko and Penny were unanimous choices for the All-BIG EAST first team while junior guard Megan Rogowski was an honorable mention honoree and guard Jessica January earned a spot on the All-Freshman team.

- RatedR21 /GenreAction, Thriller

- + Be the first to review
A premise seemingly culled from any number of fanboy wet dreams winds up shooting mostly blanks in 'Everly', a bloody and derivative action vehicle that not even the spectacle of a scantily clad, gun-toting Salma Hayek is enough to fully sustain.
Playing out in something close to real time as a desperate prostitute tries to bust her way out of a nightmarish gangster stronghold, shooting and slicing her way through hordes of Japanese yakuza, this slickly assembled exploitation-movie wankfest gets some mileage out of its star's fully committed performance, though not enough to offset the grim, monotonous tenor of the proceedings — or the glib, fetishistic recycling of Asian thriller tropes.
Director Joe Lynch (who helmed the 2013 horror-comedy 'Knights of Badassdom') and screenwriter Yale Hannon do lay out the narrative particulars with an admirable degree of economy: The movie opens with the sound of distant screams, then a nifty overhead shot of a bathroom where a naked but discreetly framed Everly (Hayek) seeks momentary refuge from her latest round of degradation — the kind she's endured, we later learn, for the four years she's spent imprisoned in the same apartment, forced to work as a sex slave for a powerful yakuza syndicate.
From the start, then, the filmmakers court pity and mild titillation in the same breath, doing their best not to leer excessively while acknowledging the honest appeal of a beautiful woman wielding heavy artillery in little more than a slip.
It's Christmas Eve, and Everly has chosen this moment to turn the tables on the rapists in her apartment, triggering the first eruption of cartoonishly over-the-top violence and sustaining a few flesh wounds in the process. (Most of the wounds here seem to be of the fleshy variety, given the numbing frequency with which presumed-dead attackers suddenly leap back to life, as if they'd been felled by paper cuts.)
But she only succeeds in attracting the playfully sadistic attention of powerful gang leader Taiko (Hiroyuki Watanabe), who promises a handsome reward to any of her equally desperate prostitute neighbors who succeeds in taking her out. That tactic fails in spectacularly bloody fashion ("That's a lot of dead whores," an onlooker notes, a line that doesn't get funnier with repetition).
Salma Hayek in 'Everly'
But Taiko knows the real way to get to his prey is by threatening Everly's mother (a fine Laura Cepeda) and her young daughter (Aisha Ayamah), neither of whom she's seen in ages, and whom she somehow persuades to make their way into the heavily guarded complex.
Confining our heroine (and much of the action) to her apartment, the layout of which is neatly conveyed by Steve Gainer's lensing and Ondrej Nekvasil's production design, 'Everly' splits the difference between the make-it-out-alive claustrophobia of actioners like 'Die Hard' and 'The Raid: Redemption', and the maternal revenge quest of Quentin Tarantino's 'Kill Bill', even if it never summons anywhere near the same tension or momentum.
Like many of Tarantino's movies (as well as Nicolas Winding Refn's 'Only God Forgives' and last year's Scarlett Johansson starrer 'Lucy'), Lynch's film freely samples the iconography of extreme Asian cinema, whether by having Everly do battle with armies of black-suited yakuza, or flanking her with fearsome Noh-masked ninjas while she's being operated on by a sort of Nipponese Mengele known as the Sadist (Togo Igawa).
Along with the central presence of Hayek, that makes 'Everly' one of the more diversely cast genre items to come along in a while, even if the movie's sense of cultural appreciation has all the nuance of a meat-grinder: The exotic tropes go in one end and bloody hamburger comes out the other.
Working with a strong below-the-line team, Lynch stages and shoots action with the requisite style, which is to say he can cover the walls of an apartment or an elevator shaft with arterial splatter as adequately as the next director. What he can't do, in the end, is make sense of a protagonist whom Hayek plays as a compelling if mystifying combo of tremulous vulnerability and (unexplained) killer prowess.
In a similar sense, the entire movie never coheres, asking us to fear for the life of a 5-year-old girl one minute, playing vintage holiday music over a bloodbath the next; our heroine's name suggests a very likely nod to the Everly Brothers' 1971 tune 'Christmas Eve Can Kill You'.
'Everly' opens 26 March

Tokyo Plaza Hotel Jul 15, 2015
Well i was staying for 10 days here to discover Tokyo and its surroundings, the hotel was just for sleeping so did not go for a luxury hotel. (Well arriving at the airport do not take a taxi cause it was expensive). The hotel was good for what i was asking. We tried out the breakfast the next day for 500yen is was good but we only did it once cause a supermarket was just a 5 min walk. The streets were the hotel was on is almost always crowded, there are a lot of restaurants with much choices. The public transport is just 15/20 min walking form the hotel there is Shikoku station u can go everywhere from there, and if u don't want to walk there is 2/3min walk to station shinokubo and there u go off to Shikoku station takes about 5 min. location was more then i was wishing for the streets and surrounding of the hotel are lovely to witness as well.

If we were talking about laws that were out of committee and the only thing left to do would be to sign the bill, then I'd agree with Tim and his colleague. However, the California proposal is just that, a proposal. Like every publicly announced law, it will be changed, compromised and modified before it is signed. Software Choice advocates need breathing room. By taking the radical side, we can compromise with things such as "doesn't have to be GPL, but source must be made available through a neutrally approved request process, ala Freedom of Information Act".

GREEN BAY, Wis. — When the Packers lost Clay Matthews to another hamstring injury Sunday in Cincinnati, they lost their one of top playmakers on defense and, ultimately, their second close game in three weeks.
One could argue that the Packers' most formidable foe this year has not been the 49ers, the Redskins or the Bengals. It's been injuries, specifically nagging hamstring pulls. Eight Packers have been sidelined already this year, costing them collectively 41 practices (or preseason games) and seven regular-season games.
Packers coach Mike McCarthy has managed injuries since the 2010 Super Bowl season with a "next man up" mantra, but even he seemed to be wondering Monday what every one else in Packer Nation was.
Are these preventable or just a cruel twist of bad luck?
"You try not to overreact to the numbers and just stay true to the specifics," he said. "Do I have an answer for you? No."
Green Bay's medical and training staffs evaluate each injury individually. The Packers do not allow them to talk to the media, but three players said they do what they can to prevent hamstring injuries with the help of the team.
One local trainer, Bradley Arnett, who works with NFL and college football players, said sprinting, jumping, acceleration and deceleration all increase the odds of hurting the hamstring, which explains why such injuries are so common in football.
"Hamstrings are a fast twitch muscle, meaning they contract and relax rapidly depending on the demand," said Arnett. "They rely on other muscles to help with movement."
When other musculature is deficient, Arnett said, the hamstring does all the work.
"Most hamstring injuries happen in either initial take off or deceleration," said Arnett.
Tight end Ryan Taylor has tried to avoid an injured hamstring by paying special attention to hamstring work in the off-season as well as now, plowing through Romanian deadlifts (RDLs) or doing exercises with the medicine ball.
"Shoulders and hamstrings are big issues in the NFL," said Taylor. "It's such a long season; you play four preseason games, you have a long training camp, you've got 16 regular-season games. Hamstrings are just something that become fatigued, so I try to do a lot of work personally on my hamstrings and on my shoulders. I call it prehab, preventative rehab."
Elite athletes say that preventing injuries is all encompassing, from nutrition to sleep to stretching. McCarthy said the Packers do an exceptional job of taking care of their bodies individually, making the hamstring injuries all the more mystifying.
"The best you can do is be in the best shape you can be in," said fullback John Kuhn, who missed the Cincinnati game with a hamstring injury. "You constantly focus on the proper treatment, the proper preparation to get ready for games and make sure you're hydrated.
"I think luck is really the No.TH1 factor in this. Between youth, position, body type, time of running, you're still going to see hamstring injuries. I don't think you can pinpoint any particular thing."
To Kuhn, that includes fatigue, a factor considered by some to be the top indicator for injury.
"I pulled my hamstring after I played 19 plays," said Kuhn. "So I definitely don't think it was fatigue."
Running back James Starks has hurt his hamstring before. On Monday, he had just had his injured knee examined and was waiting for results. Hamstrings are such a pain for NFL players that when he was asked what is worse, a hamstring or knee injury, Starks said: "It depends on how severe it is, I think.
"All the guys work pretty hard to stay healthy. Injuries happen all the time in the NFL. It's a tough league, strenuous on your body and we do all we can. We come in here every morning, work hard in the weight room to try to prevent those injuries. Sometimes you know it catches you off guard, you might react to certain plays in the game and strain things. All the guys are in shape. It's just freak accidents."
Taylor knocked on wood three times after being asked about hamstring injuries three times. No one wants them, they're painful, they're limiting and the rehabilitation time is unpredictable.
"A hamstring is a tricky thing because it's not something you can run through," Taylor said. "It's something that you have to really work on — I have to knock on wood now — it's something that you have to really stay on top of. It's a freak thing that sometimes happens. Who knows?"
Matthews has fought hamstring injuries going back to his rookie season. He was hurt the first week of training camp in 2009 and missed all but the last week of camp. In 2010, he injured a hamstring in the scrimmage and missed the rest of training camp. He also missed a regular-season game that year. A hamstring cost him a exhibition game in 2011 and four regular-season games in 2012.
Matthews said after the game he would play Oct. 6 against Detroit, but McCarthy — knowing how these things can linger for weeks — said he was hopeful that Matthews' hamstring injury this time was not severe.
"I go off of the medical report because sometimes your personal interaction with the player is different than their interaction with the doctors," said McCarthy. "I'll see where Clay is when we get back on Monday."
As a certified trainer who has trained football players like J.J. Watt at his gym, NX Level in Waukesha, Arnett said that strengthening the hamstring to fight injury is too simplistic. He said that hamstring injuries in general — and nothing specific to Matthews or anyone else with whom Arnett has not worked — are a problem of hip alignment.
"Strengthening your hamstrings is important, but when your hips are not aligned you never really work them," said Arnett. "Instead you work your lower back. So you may not exactly have weak hamstrings, they are just constantly fatigued from not getting help from other musculature.
"Prevention of hamstring issues starts with first and foremost hip mobility…. When the hips sit at an anterior tilt, sloping downwards, it pre-stretches the hamstring, leaving very little room for extension when sprinting… . . So when your hips are sloped forward, thus pre-stretching the hamstring, you have limited room, and when you are basically over-stretched, the hamstring will pull to prevent a tear."

Condo was clean and very nice. The only complaint about the condo itself would be that one of the bathrooms is very small and the shower head was useless. The landscaping and beach was somewhat of a disappointment due to the hurricane last year. We had a great time though.
The condo is very nice and the description was accurate. The view is beautiful and the beach is very nice. But everything else on Grand Bahama Island was incredibly disappointing. I wish I would have done more intense research on the island before booking. The buildings are in disrepair, the landscaping is a mess from the hurricane and everything looks war torn. Not one bit of clean up looks to have been done since last fall - except for the hammering of the roof repair to a neighboring unit. That went on all day. After 2 days, we decided to cut our losses and return to Florida for the rest of our week. We chose to lose the rental money and spend even more money to be able to relax and enjoy our vacation. We have been to other islands in the Bahamas years ago and this one was the biggest disappointment. The owners should have conveyed the hurricane damage/non clean up before we arrived. I have rented many times through VRBO/Homeaway. This is the first time I have been disappointed in my trip due to the location.
The condo is wonderful. The air condoning in the guestroom is noisy but overall was great.
First time to the Bahamas, first time VRBO, absolutely loved the place!!! The owners were professional and so great to deal with, emails were prompt, the advice from them was very very helpful. It was exactly what we were looking for, beautiful beach, quiet, the condo was awesome, had the time of our life. We rented a car which you would pretty much have to, found the grocery stores, and drove all over the island. So safe and people are very friendly and helpful there. We miss it already and will definitely be going back. Thanks Sue and Fred for your condo, we had an amazing time.
My husband, baby, and I enjoyed a wonderful week at this condo. The views were amazing, and the pictures online do not do it justice. The water is steps from the back porch and the colors change to beautiful shades of turquoise all day. The view from the master bedroom and living room is just amazing. If you are looking for a more secluded, romantic, peaceful vacation...this is it!
The condo is very large and was very clean upon arrival. The kitchen is huge and has stainless steel appliances. I wish my own kitchen at home had as much cabinet space as what you will find here. We went grocery shopping and ate at home often. You will pay island grocery prices, which was 2 to 3 times the price of groceries in the States. The best restaurant we found was Flying Fish. Be prepared to spend over $100 per person, however it was the best meal we had ever had and the atmosphere is one of a kind.
The beach is to the right of the condo community and is a short walk at low tide. Sometimes we were the only ones on the beach, which was confusing, because this is one of the most beautiful beaches we had ever seen. The ocean is very calm and barely any waves. Our 1 yr old loved playing in the calm surf. We brought snorkeling gear and saw a lion fish and various other fish right in the rocks, in front of the condos.
Gold Rock Beach, at the national park is a must! We have seen beaches all over the world, and this was the best we ever saw. Bring a camera for sure. Ben's cave is also across the street and is interesting. Admission is $5 for both the beach and the cave. This was our favorite thing we did all week.
You definitely need a car as the condo is about 10 minutes from the grocery stores, restaurants, and the marketplace. We rented a car from Brads Car Rental, and were surprised how old and beat up the car was, but we went with it, and still loved every minute. Don't expect a brand new rental car like in the US though. You do drive on left side of the road in the Bahamas, but this was easy to get the hang of. The only cons were that there were many small ants in the kitchen and found in other parts of the house. We chalked this up to island living though, and kept all food in the fridge.
This trip was like a second Honeymoon, even with a baby! The condo is huge and the views are spectacular. We would DEFINITELY RETURN! Friends of ours rented another condo at Port of Call, and this condo was MUCH NICER than theirs. We also got our sec deposit back.
We spent our 20th wedding anniversary here and were not disappointed! The townhome is in great condition, well supplied and the wi-fi allowed us to check our email. We were able to truly relax and enjoy the peaceful surrondings. To top it off there was excellent snorkeling from the beach in front of the complex. We're already planning to return.

Big 12: Prediction of the Preserved Red River RivalryJune 17, 2010
Amidst all the drama surrounding the Big 12's future and the Red River Rivalry's 110th birthday this fall. The realignment outcome that seemed most certain was the preservation of Texas and Oklahoma's storied rivalry.
So with the Big 12 breathing once again, we can finally continue discussing what's really important: football. Here are my predictions on the game, along with some keys strengths and weaknesses for each team.
A season ago, the loss of Sam Bradford had an atomic bomb sized impact on the city of Norman. His injury essentially destroyed Oklahoma's shot at a return to the National Championship. Now Sooners fans are grateful that quarterback Landry Jones is entering his sophomore year with more than half a season under his belt.
Jones showed promise after being forced to fill Heisman-sized shoes, throwing for 3,200 yards and posting a 26-14 touchdown to interception ratio. With nine returning starters on offense, which includes stellar running back DeMarco Murray and an impressive array of wide outs featuring Ryan Broyles. The Sooners shouldn't find it hard to put up the necessary points.
Murray should find success against a shaky Texas defensive line, giving the Sooners the advantage on that side of the ball. This also gives Oklahoma the balanced approach Bob Stoops likes.
The cause for concern is on the defensive side of the ball. Only five starters return to a top-ranked OU defense, which may be the Sooners' kryptonite against a consistently athletic Longhorn offense.
The losses of Gerald McCoy and Austin English will hurt, but the Sooners have arguably the best pass rusher in the Big 12 with Jeremy Beal. Expect Beal to cause havoc in the backfield, with only two returning Texas offensive linemen. The primary issue will be at linebacker, where all-conference selection Travis Lewis is the lone returning starter.
Keep your eye on: WR Ryan Broyles
Broyles emerged as the favorite target for Landry Jones, accumulating 1,120 yards and 15 touchdowns as a sophomore. It should be fun to watch Broyles compete against a stout Texas secondary.
Following the heartbreaking injury to Colt McCoy and loss to Alabama, all eyes will be on quarterback Garrett Gilbert as he emerges as the new face of the Texas Longhorns—only their third quarterback in eight years.
It's safe to say that Longhorn fans are encouraged by the youngster's potential, given the fact that he's already played (and did well) in a bigger game than most of the players in the country have ever played in.
Besides McCoy, the biggest loss offensively for the Longhorns will be on the o-line, as they lose three decorated veterans including Adam Ulatoski. In addition, the Horns lose All-American WR Jordan Shipley to the NFL and WR Dan Buckner, who transferred to Arizona. This leaves the athletic Jon Chiles and James Kirkendoll as Gilbert's primary targets, both of whom can make big plays.
It looks like Tre Newton will emerge as the premier ball-carrier, and must be ready to make a significant impact in play-making and yardage production. It's likely that Mack Brown will somewhat alter his offensive scheme, given that his past two quarterbacks have made major contributions to the running game.
Defensively, Texas will be led by their experienced secondary who, despite the loss of Earl Thomas, should emerge as possibly the best in the Big 12, as they return three starters.
Expect safety Black Gideon to build on his improvement last season and make some big plays in 2010. Despite the return of Lott Trophy finalist Sam Acho, the Texas defensive line looks to be suspect. The Horns lose star DE Sergio Kindle, leaving Kheeston Randall and Emmanuel Acho to anchor the line. In addition look for bother Acho to emerge as a force at linebacker.
Overall, with seven returning starters, the Longhorn defense looks poised to be among the leagues best.
Keep your eye on: QB Garrett Gilbert
All eyes are on Gilbert to follow in the footsteps of Vince and Colt McCoy, amid great losses at WR and an O-line that was spectacular in 2009.
Predicted winner: Oklahoma
Bob Stoops knows where his team stands offensively, which will be the key in this matchup. Expect Landry Jones and the Sooner offense to be successful in this one. The Longhorn defensive line and linebackers must bring their A game in order to contain DeMarco Murray, who is my chosen MVP for the game.
The key for the Longhorns will be on the offensive side. If Texas can match Oklahoma in yardage and points, the Horns will have a much better chance of coming away with a win. If not, expect to see the Sooners pull off the upset. I have a lot faith in Bob Stoops' offense which I think will be reason enough for Oklahoma to take the game.

Restaurants at City Gods Temple Markets
Shanghai, China
Restaurants at City Gods Temple Markets Shanghai Reviews
216 reviews
Jun 02, 2004
A couple of restaurants in the markets area of the City Gods Temple in Shanghai.The Green Wave (I am not sure this is its real English name, it is a literal translation of its Chinese name) restaurant is in the photo, it's a big restaurant in the middle of the City Gods temple complex, you can't miss it, since it has all these photos of President Clinton dining there in the windows. It's supposed to be a good restaurant, but I did not eat there myself because it wasn't open yet when I got there. Instead, I got these really tasty Chinese buns with meat inside from another restaurant (Nan Xiang bun restaurant) across from the Green Wave restaurant. It's hard to miss because it's the one with a huge line snaking around forever from the takeout window. I stood in line for almost an hour to get the buns from the takeout window. One of the photos shows the window where you can see the buns being made and steamed in these bamboo steamers. You can also sit down and eat upstairs, but the scoop is the takeouts taste better! Another photo shows the locals eating the buns outside the restaurant so that's what I did too.

As fireweed transforms the mountains into a Christmas quilt of red and green, and the cottonwood leaves fade to yellow, I realize summer is nearly over, and autumn is about to begin. Our summer trips run until mid-September, and by then, the morning air bites, and the wind can rage. Some days are wet, and other days are wetter. Last year we had snow on the final day of our "summer" season.
Why do we run our summer trips so late? Why do we continue to take guests at least two weeks after most tourism businesses in Alaska shut down for the year? Why do we fight autumn storms and endure the sometimes unpleasant September weather? It's all about bears. No matter how preoccupied Kodiak bears may be with eating berries in July and August, they turn their attention to salmon in September as they begin to add inches of fat for winter hibernation.
We see more bears chasing salmon in September than we do any other time of the summer. Not only are bears more plentiful and more visible in September, but they are also more photogenic. Gone is the ratty, rubbed fur of July, and in its place, a full, dark coat gleams in the autumn sunshine, and yes, we also have some gorgeous, sunny days in September. By September, cubs are learning to fish, and it's fun to watch their mothers teach them the finer points of chasing down a salmon.
I think September is magical, and I look forward to it with equal parts anticipation and dread. No matter what happens or what the weather brings, September is always exciting.
We've had a great summer so far. We've seen several family groups of bears (sows and cubs). The deer population has exploded due to mild winters the last few years, and we always see does and fawns wandering the beach at low tide. We've also enjoyed watching red foxes that range in color from red to black, and of course, we've seen bald eagles everywhere. On the ocean, we've watched fin whales nearly every day, and while we haven't seen as many humpbacks as we did last year, we were thrilled the other day when one breached in front of us. We saw killer whales once this summer and had Dall's porpoises play in our bow wake. We've laughed at the antics of sea otters nearly every day and have photographed harbor seals hauled out on rocks. One day while we were fishing, a young seal swam up to the boat and curiously watched us. Everyone grabbed cameras, and the little guy stayed there and posed for photos.
We enjoyed excellent pink-salmon fishing in July and had great halibut fishing in August. The largest halibut so far was a 128 pounder caught in mid-August. We are still waiting for the silver salmon to arrive, but they should be here soon.
All of our guests would tell you that one of their favorite things about their stay at Munsey's Bear Camp was the food. One guest said, "I never dreamed we'd eat so well at a lodge in the middle of the wilderness." When another guest stepped off the float plane, and Mary introduced herself, the guest said, "I've been reading about your wonderful meals and was hoping you'd still be here." Yes, Mary Schwarzhans is again dazzling us with her wonderful, creative meals. It doesn't take long for our guests to fall in love with Mary and wait expectantly for her next culinary delight. We love Mary not only for her wonderful food but also for her quirky sense of humor, and boundless energy.
I know in most areas in the U.S., autumn is still a few weeks away, but the season is already upon us here on Kodiak Island, and we are ready for whatever it brings. Our September trips may be sunny and beautiful, but more than likely, we will battle a few storms. No matter what the weather does, though, the bears will be chasing salmon, and they will make our September spectacular.


text: Students in the Criminal Defense Clinic ended a strong Fall Quarter with successful resolution of many clients' cases. For those cases carrying over into the current term, several students have returned to the Advanced Clinic course for the opportunity to continue their work. Connie Dang ('15) and Krisina Zuniga ('15) are two such students who will represent and defend their client against claims of driving under the influence and causing hit and run property damage at trial scheduled January 27, 2014. As it so happens, trial is set on that same day in another clinic case–this one with Matt Henry ('15) and Snayha Nath ('15) at the helm to defend their client against charges of battery. While trials offer wonderful experience for clinic students, there is just as much value in the work leading up to it. This work might call upon students to conduct witness interviews, research and develop facts, enter into discovery and motion practice, and develop and use skills in negotiation. The Criminal Defense Clinic is instructed by Professor Ron Tyler and Clinical Supervising Attorney, Galia Phillips.
