They seem to have a "dark" aura, in general. Maybe it's just their clothing.
She had a moment of brain freeze...it happens. Three years ago. But she went on to be able to laugh at herself, and that is a great gift. She has done some very funny bits for Jimmy Kimmel:http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/14/caitlin-upton-miss-teen-s_n_357843.htmlI think she'll be fun to watch...hope she gets the chance to kick some butt!! Revenge is sweet. I agree Peach! She get another chance!
She seemed very uncomfortable being interviewed, the way she paused between every two words and took a deep breath -- but she's hot
does anyone notice caitie is too young to be on the race?
Does CBS set up teams facebook fan pages or is it up to the racers to make one? I could not find Catie's and Brent's.
I do think this is a team I don't like AT ALL, and thus, they'll make it far...
What better scenario could CBS and World Race Productions ask for than a former beauty pageant winner who flubs a geography question at the 2007 Miss Teen USA Pageant? She is a lot smarter than most people assume from the pageant winner resume. She could also be as athletic as Dustin and Kandice were. It would be total redemption of her image is she was able to win AR16. To do that I think she needs to stay positive in her relationship with Brent. If she does, they will have earned their victory.
They gave me bad vibes from their intro video. Add in that Brooke had no good things to say about Brent, and I'm wary of them.

Pope Francis named 17 new cardinals Sunday — 13 of them under age 80 and thus eligible to vote in a conclave to elect his successor. Three of the new cardinals are Americans, including leading U.S. moderate Chicago Archbishop Blaise Cupich and Indianapolis Archbishop Joseph Tobin.
As is Francis' tradition, the new cardinals hail from some of the most far-away and peripheral corners of the globe, with Africa, Asia, South America and Oceania getting far more representation than Europe, which has long dominated the College of Cardinals.
New to the club of the "princes" of the church are bishops from Bangui, Central African Republic; Port Louis, Mauritius and Tlalnepantla, Mexico.
Significantly only one Italian elector was named: Francis' ambassador to "the beloved and martyred Syria," Cardinal-elect Mario Zenari.
Francis said the 17 would be elevated at a consistory on Nov. 19, on the eve of the close to his Holy Year of Mercy.
Of the new cardinals, Cupich is very much a pastor in Francis' likeness, emphasizing the merciful and welcoming side of the church — somewhat to the dismay of U.S. conservative Catholics. His nomination as Chicago archbishop was Francis' first major U.S. appointment and he was a papal appointee at the pope's big family synod last year.
The nomination for Tobin could indicate Francis' appreciation of Tobin's support for American nuns. Tobin had been the No. 2 in the Vatican office for religious orders for only two years when in 2012, then-Pope Benedict XVI sent him back to the U.S. to head the Indianapolis archdiocese, which had fewer than 230,000 parishioners.
The transfer was seen in some Vatican circles as being tied to Tobin's efforts to promote dialogue and resolve tensions between the Vatican and U.S. nuns who were subject of two separate Holy See investigations. After Francis was elected, both investigations were concluded with Vatican praise for the work of the sisters.
The third American, Cardinal-elect Kevin Farrell, the outgoing bishop of Dallas, was an expected nomination. Francis in August named him to head the big new Vatican secretariat for laity, family and life issues.

I am so excited that I found this group. I've been looking for something like this for a while :-)
I've been heavily indoctrinated into just about everything related to paganism and also the occult, too. It's gotten to a point where it's terrifying for me, it feels too real, and I think I'm confusing my own imagination with the spiritual (which I now think is imaginary too, so maybe I'm not confusing it after all). I'm not sure if atheism is my true nature or not, but I know it's what I aspire to be, what feels safe for me, and that my rational mind embraces it.
But my emotional side is still really attached to pagan and occult beliefs. It was fun. I had a sense of belonging, feeling special, having 'special powers,' license to be silly, wild and crazy, and many of my friends I feel most attached to are into it. Also, I seem to be drawn to people, and then find out they're pagan.
Yet, I also feel out-of-control and afraid of these things, too. I'm afraid of the darker side of it. The people who think they can make energy balls and manipulate energy. The people who claim to read my mind (and coincidentally actually did say the sentence I was thinking even though they'd just met me a few hours prior). The law of attraction freaks me out, too, because if I can manifest good things, then I get scared I'm going to accidentally manifest bad things if my mind isn't always thinking positively. I seem to have accumulated every "bad luck" superstition from every religion I've ever studied, so that drives me crazy too, because with so many of them, it's bad luck if I do something and bad luck if I don't. It doesn't just happen randomly, it's because people I care about in my life keep convincing me that it's so.
I gave way too much power to people who claimed to be healers and psychics. But that's because they seemed to know me upon meeting me. They told me things about myself. They could "sense" certain things about me, and most of them usually said the same things about me, even though they didn't know each other. So that made me think they really could see spirits around me or something.
It's not like I thought everything was real. I knew that there are a lot of illusionists and con artists out there. But I "knew" that there were people who were practicing the "real thing." Magic was fake Disney crap, but magick was real. The psychics at the fair were phonies, but the one I went to was "real." The way I could "tell the difference" was if someone asked me my birthdate I knew they were a fake and were just going to make something up based on my astrology sign. If they asked a bunch of questions they were fake. But if I walked in there and they seemed to understand me right away, and connect with me, and tell me true things about myself without me having to say anything, that's when I "knew" that they were "real." Also I thought I could feel it, could sense it, when they were "real." I got this feeling of warmth, a sense of awe, my whole body filled up with love, it even felt like my energy was moving differently when I went to the healer, like something was swirling around in my head.
For all the good and fun that I had, right now the fears have gotten way too out of control and I really want to feel comfortable being an atheist. I've always looked up to atheists, thinking they were some of the smartest people in the world, but I never felt like I could be one because I've always been such a "true believer" no matter what path I follow, until I became a true believer in everything I've ever read, which are way too many rules to have to follow. I'm at a point where I have to be my own person. I have to trust that I can make up my own rules. And nothing bad is going to punish me (threefold or otherwise) for not following the rules.
Are there any good sites, arguments, discussions, etc. that debunk a lot of these types of beliefs? This has always seemed more real to me as opposed to other belief systems because of the spirits not being far away but right here on earth. It kind of freaks me out and makes me feel like I'm being constantly watched or stalked or something. Something following me waiting to hurt me in some way, or blocking me from doing things that I want and not being able to reach my full potential.
One reason the rational side of me stopped believing is because as soon as I started to get freaked out and was afraid of the evil spirts trying to harm me, that's when most of the psychics and healers and believers would say that they don't sense anything or see anything. (Well there was one guy from a cultish thing who said he saw two demons with me, that I brought them in with me, and blamed me for it saying that it's because my family has practiced witchcraft and black magic for generations and that's why I'm 'haunted.') They didn't know why I was freaking out and suggested I see a therapist. I do have post traumatic stress disorder, and rationally I know that's why I thought I could see/sense all these things, and why my fear is such a phobia.
Even though I know all this, it still feels so real. And whenever I am around people who encourage me to have these beliefs, all it takes is one conversation to undo months of therapy. Because that part of me, the true believer part of me is in conflict with my rational atheist side. It's so confusing, and that's why looking at sites and hearing arguments would be very helpful for me, to reinforce the rational way of thinking.
Thanks! Nice to meet all of you!

Well, about the feeling special thing, I knew a lot of people who said things like "I knew I was pagan before I even knew there was a word for it", and "I always knew I was different" blah blah blah. People feel special because they're part of a select group of people that allegedly has magick powers. I replaced that (which I was trying to convince myself of, more than actually believing) with feeling special because I saw through all the woo. Not all intelligent people do (most pagans are pretty intelligent).
The brilliant thing about the law of attraction (marketing-wise) is that it can't be disproven. If something bad happens, the person can say you were thinking negative. You can say that you weren't, or that you were thinking positive, but you can't prove it. Much like "faith", the person can just say you weren't thinking positive enough. This horribly insensitive law is just one in a long line of philosophies that try to make life fair; according to the law of attraction, the universe says "your wish is my command" and you always get what you want, so if you were hit by a car, it happened because you wanted it. Karma is similar (if something bad happens to you, you must have deserved it) but at least it doesn't penalize people for their thoughts.
This group is about the best and most therapeutic place I've found that's helped me with deconversion. I was shunned by my coven and reading others' experiences shows me that similar things have happened to a lot of other people. Unfortunately, most of the other things I've found about ex-pagans is from a Christian perspective and about how paganism is of the devil, instead of something that looks into the falseness of the claims and doesn't replace it with additional false claims (Christianity). Too many atheists think that paganism is a benign and harmless religion, and some pagans like to kiss up to atheists b/c they don't like Christians--meanwhile they don't think that the same critical thinking applies to their own beliefs.
Thank you for responding!
Yeah, most pagans I know are quite intelligent which is one of the reasons I gravitated towards them to begin with.

Seriously. And I have been in car accidents that were not my fault, but had others try to tell me it was "the universe" trying to tell me something, or teach me some lesson, or that I'd willed it upon myself because I was so negative.
I think this may be where my fear of the negative comes in because I was majorly criticized for negativity, as if it was my ego that was standing in the way of getting healed. When in reality they were effectively knocking out my critical thinking and logic.
Some of the sickest reasoning I've heard regarding accidents is if I was a passenger, one healer told me that the accident was meant to injure the driver but since I was in the car it injured me. They thought their philosophy was proven when the driver fell off a horse the following year and she said, "See! She was meant to get injured." And instead of trying to physically help me, they would ask questions like "Who in your life does she remind you of?" then "Well you should work on your emotional issue with so-and-so."
I would get angry at the response, the logical part of me knowing it was B.S., but they acted so sage-like that repetition of hearing these things got part of me to buy into it. I had such trust and faith in these people. That's convenient how there is such an emphasis on trusting, trust the process, things happen in time, etc.
I am sorry to hear that you were shunned by your coven. That must have been very hurtful.
I agree. I've run into the same problems with ex-pagan sites where they replace it with something else. Sooooo unhelpful. When a person is afraid of demons and evil spirits, then having born-agains try to tell me the stuff I'm into is "of the devil" it kind of re-inforces the whole evil spirits thing. Chrisitan deconversion sites don't work for ex-pagans because knowing that the christian devil idea was incorporated from the hellenic underworld gods doesn't help someone who believed in the ancient systems, or the supposed spirits they were based on.
You mentioned many good things. Thanks for the insight!
I think you are very much on the road to figuring this out :) Congrats! I wrote a really cool response to this earlier then lost it, argg! anyway, I basically encouraged you to look at the FACTS. You mentioned feelings a lot in your post. Feelings are not facts. You are probably a sensitive, very emotional person who found that paganism often did a good job of explaining your heightened emotions (Me too!) Also, it provided stimulus for more positive emotions. When did the negatives emotions start to take over? My take away message was that you can still have all those good emotions (love, awe, inspiration, connectedness) without lying to yourself or others or giving up everything to follow someone with charisma (that is why some people make you feel an instant connection, they are charismatic and either naturally, or by practice, know how to manipulate your emotions, no magick involved.) From my own experience, I can tell you that once I let go of "negative energy" (the belief in it), "bad spirits" and "bad luck" my life got 100% better. Letting go of the idea of manifesting and karma was like setting myself free from a cage I had built in my mind! do you know what the real dark side of magick is? what you are going through right now, that's all. It might be hard to purge all this from your life and your thinking (especially if you have family who is pagan? sounds like you do) but it's been about 3 years for me and I am SO MUCH HAPPIER! I can even participate in some pagan events and see it for what it is (fantasy fulfillment) and still enjoy myself ;) Gosh, there is so much more I want to tell you! Why don't you write some specific questions up for us? Like, things that make you think paganism, magick, gods and goddesses, whatever, might be real?
Thank you so much!
>I basically encouraged you to look at the FACTS. You mentioned feelings a lot in your post. Feelings are not facts.
True! It is good to get that reminder :)
>You are probably a sensitive, very emotional person
> When did the negatives emotions start to take over?
Very good question. When I went through some traumatic life experiences years ago, I started to think I was somehow bringing bad luck upon myself. There was a lot of re-inforcement of this thinking with family members, friends, and community. It kept building for years, growing with each new person who told me I was causing the bad things to happen because I had negative thoughts.
Then three and a half years ago, I had a terrifyingly vivid imagination/flashback/hallucination (not sure exactly what it was) of being physically attacked by a demon while I was at some weekend conference that my sibling was trying to get my mom and I involved with. It must have been a type of cult because you're supposed to follow what they teach and not ask for explanations nor "think too much." Ding ding ding.
When I tried to call my therapist and my best friend from the hotel to get support for feeling attacked, my mom said "You signed a contract that you wouldn't discuss what goes on here." (I'd never planned on signing it, but they wouldn't let you in if you didn't, and this was after you paid and couldn't get a refund.) I was like are you kidding? But then I subsequently became afraid that the guy who ran the event would come after me if I said anything. I thought he had some kind of psychic powers and he'd know if I broke the contract. Since he claimed to be able to heal from afar, I feared he could also harm from afar.
That's when I started to get some really serious phobias, and I pretty much never felt safe no matter where I was, because if someone could attack me on an astral/psychic/spiritual level, it wouldn't matter if I was home alone with the doors locked.
There were other bad or scary people I've known, when some of them claimed to have powers made me terrified that they could attack me forever.
I feel silly writing all this. Silly that I could have been duped into thinking these things. But this is good. I'd rather feel embarrassed than still be terrified.
I'm starting to figure out for myself that I get more afraid of the negative energy/ negative spirits when I've been triggered in some way, or feel a loss of control.
Whatever progress I make is brief then fades.
When I feel afraid, it's like I get some sort of amnesia, and completely forget all the intellectual realizations I've made. As if the things I'm learning aren't making it into the long term memory yet.

Wow!! That's really great insight!! I suppose I am drawn to people with a certain charisma. Maybe people who have charisma like to feel special, and get drawn into these things? I don't know.

That's so awesome! I can not wait until I can do the same! I learn this over and over. I hope someday soon it will "stick."

Yeah, I already feel like I'm under attack, so I guess it doesn't get much worse (lol, of course it still feels like it's unlucky to say that)

Yeah, the rough part is that my sibling is still involved with the cult thing. My mother bounces around between different spiritual paths, currently it's some new age mixed with a liberal christianity. My dad is a catholic and so is most of the rest of my family. Most of my friends are into new age and spirituality, a good percentage are pagans, most of whom believe strongly in spirits.
I'm glad that you are so much happier now :-) That is really wonderful!
There are good and bad people in every religion or non religion, Wicca does NOT encourage its followers to commit insurance fraud, lol, Im sorry these were your experiences but its not the norm for sure.
I was raised in Paganism, Im still torn between it and Atheism, I love the rituals, I love incense, candles, sage, meditation, spirit dancing and other various practices and yet Intellectually I think like an Atheist, I dont believe in most claims made by people who believe in the supernatural, I dont believe in God.
Naturalistic Pagan? I dont know.
All I know is that Wiccans who are truth to their path follow the rede which says-an it harm none do what ye will- Back in my day, that included animals but most new agey Wiccans believe in their own ideas now so.... and thats most likely the group you encounteree--not true representations of Wiccans at all.
I still participate in the culture when it has to do with my art. I came back to my art and magick culture five years ago, having been away from it for over a decade. I thought that things would be like they were in the 1980s...when we used various traditions to draw from for our art...but I found that things were not the same, what I called surrealism, they called sacred. From my perspective they were no longer able to engage in surreal activity (as I understand it), because they believed that doing so was actually a magical working that caused things to happen.....I did also, but not like they did. I believed that we might actually cause art to manifest (poetry, music, drawings, collages)...but alas, nothing happend...no demons appeared (darn) and it broke my heart to see that no art came of it either...just stress from bickering about psychic safety and taboo breaking.
I am reconsidering whether I should ever participate in social cultural pagan/occult events again. I may just have to say its a wash, and do my own thing.
I have, however, found collaborators who are not superstitious about my end/my art process side of the collaboration...and one of the main reasons I joined is to learn how to communicate with artists who are theists.
Since joining this morning, and reading stories and posts that I can relate to...my stress level has decreased a LOT...now that is what I call magic!
I just joined today. I really liked reading your posts here. I've been through it also. It just gets to be too much, doesn't it? I don't mind the creative thinking aspect of the occult/pagan mentality...I enjoy it, in fact, it fuels my artwork....but it just gets to be too much when I would get different responses for the same question (from the same people). They say that the best way to confuse a child (and animals in lab experiments) is to respond differently to situations that are the "same". Makes ya crazy! A study with pigeons that I just read about in Dan Dennett's "Breaking the Spell" book goes something like this: they gave a pigeon a treat at random times during the day that did not depend on what the pigeon did. (after the pigeon had learned specific things to get a treat) the bird began to try to figure out what worked...and having received a treat after it had spun around with its tail out...it tried to spin around with its tail out again to see if that worked.
I've been spun into pigeon dancing more times than I can count while attempting to communicate with people in the pagan community.
Allison, you had suggested mentioning specific examples. One of the reasons I thought all this stuff was real, was that I thought I could "sense" that spirits (whether good or bad) were near me. I'd get this strange sensation on the top of my head, can't describe it, kind of prickly, as if some of the hairs were standing up (like when you get goosebumps), and it felt like that "crown chakra" was open to the spirit word.
This was re-inforced by a few "pychics" who would tell me the reason I had so much fear was that my "third eye" has been open from a very young age, so I've seen things that I shouldn't have and wasn't strong enough to deal with the scary images/whatever.
Also sometimes when I'd be walking near streetlights I'd get that weird goosebump feeling on my scalp and a lamp would go out, or go on, or flicker. When I told the psychic she said depending on if it's going on or off, one is a good sign and one is a bad sign.
I haven't had that feeling in several months, but just started feeling it today after being triggered with upsetting words and not having any resources to help me with that. Even some people on this site seem to have a fasination with the darker elements of woo and I don't feel strong enough yet to be able to easily forget about it.
Hi Again :) One thing that might help is to realize that people all over the world have mystical experiences characterized by physical sensations BUT they interpret them in the context of their own cultural and religious traditions. So, culture A says that goosebumps are a sign that ghosts are near while culture B says it's a sign that your Chi is moving, culture C says goosebumps are your chakras openings and culture D says you're now possessed by demons ;) I'm being a little silly to make a point. The point is: humans get goosebumps and it has a physiological explanation tied to the fact that we used to be monkeys! And we still are hairy mammals. Here is a great article about goosebumps: http://www.syncrat.com/7jn. You could also look at this: various things happen to us on a day to day basis, some good, some bad. If a psychic tells you that a "good omen" has just occurred and something good will happen, your brain will scan everything that happens to you that day until it hits upon something that matches. Same with bad omens. The coincidence might be so dramatic that you remember it for a long time but that doesn't discount all the times the "omen" was wrong or not real impressive. You just don't remember those. So, like I said before, you sound like a very sensitive person and strong emotions cause a strong physical response for you but that is just your body doing it's work, nothing more or less ;)

Subscribe To How Paul Greengrass' Captain Phillips Found Its Somali Pirates Updates
I've already subscribed
While Tom Hanks' turn as the titular hero in Paul Greengrass' Captain Phillips has generated the most buzz for the film, it's not the only terrific performance to be found in the movie. Newcomer Barkhad Abdi stars as the film's central villain, Muse, and manages to find an impressive balance between threatening and empathetic, both adding a terrific tension to the film and depth to the character. So how did Greengrass go about casting the role of Muse and selecting Abdi for the part? At a recent press junket for the film in Los Angeles I had the chance to ask the director and the star exactly that.
Sitting down with Greengrass and Abdi for an on-camera interview last week, I not only had the chance to ask about how the Somali pirates were cast, what the director was looking for during the auditions, Abdi's approach to the character, and what they hope that audiences will take away from watching the film. Check out the video below!
Greengrass' first film since 2010's Green Zone and based on a screenplay written by Billy Ray (The Hunger Games), Captain Phillips recounts the thrilling true story from April 2009 when a band of Somali pirates, led by a man named Muse (Abdi), attempted to hijack the container ship MV Maersk Alabama. Armed with nothing but quick thinking and incredible bravery, the titular Captain (Hanks) made every move he could to protect the members of his crew, even when it meant putting himself in harm's way.
Already in select theaters, the movie will be released nationwide tomorrow, October 11th. You can watch a trailer for the film below and head over to our Blend Film Database for more.

Sunday to Monday
And to top it all, lack of sleep the previous night makes matters worse, (especially when you have started with the season opener of LOST at 10 last night). As you stare at the monitor plucking words off the screen by your eyelids, the waft of sleep intoxicate you, slowly decapitate you of your senses, and in no time it feels like you are carrying two software-engineering textbooks on your eyelashes.
Being in such a state, expecting something intelligible to escape from the keyboard to the laptop-screen is highly improbable, and the article looks more like a result of an extended session of FIFA-play, while your word document was open. Tackle-LongPass-Shoot-PublishBlog.
I switched on the TV to keep me from passing out, and suddenly I was caught up in a socio-political ad in which cross-border dumb-charades was being enacted. 'Aman ki asha' they call it, looks to me, like an effort to fart out loud when the stomach is running. Poor fellas, to their misery, IPL (Indo-Pak love) is as dead as a Sohail tanveer in a Bajrang dal office.
Flipping past the Sun tvs and the Vijaya tvs and their various off shoots - showing buxom actresses flapping their love-handles trying to keep step with the over ecstatic hero at some foreign locale - I settled for Dance India Dance on Zee. Mithun da sitting alongside Salman khan, both trying to outwit each other, and some deft dancing from the contestants, made good afternoon TV viewing. But it lasted until one of the judges exclaimed after one act, "Chummeshwari performance", as he blowed a kiss to a female participant. Goodness gracious, I searched for my remote, as if it was a screaming family member buried under post-earthquake rubble. Mute. PowerOff. Peace.
Focus shifted to my twitter timeline for some canned inspiration. And guess what I see there - "Arjun rampal wins the national award in the best supporting actor category". I gasped for breath as I searched for the tag #fakingnews appended to the tweet but to no avail. It was indeed breaking news.#fail. This was as ridiculous as watching the pirated version of Avatar on your Ipod nano.
Sometimes I feel my timeline looks like a green-peace protest rally, as the tweets look more like protest-march-placard text. Chill maaro yaaro.
And there are celeb-tweets, invariably followed by a smart-ass twitterer pointing out the spelling mistakes of the aforementioned tweet. Surely for them, getting a life in addition to getting one full blooded "Fukoff" as a reply from the celeb, are two of the resolutions for the new year. And the Glamour dolls have nothing to "loose" here on twitter, "definately" more followers are gonna throng "there" timelines, their #grammargandu-isms notwithstanding and with that I rest my case here.
Saturday, before its death, had poured a refreshing Sunday into the cup of our lives. You take a few sips and before you could appreciate the taste and aroma, It has evaporated and, yeah, you snickering morons I am not on crack *hic*.

Once at the airport, your child will receive a bracelet with his/her name, flight number and destination. This bracelet can't be removed and should stay around the child's wrist during the entire trip.
For flights departing from Brussels Airport, you will have the possibility to accompany your child to the gate. If you do not wish to do so, he/she will be escorted by a member of the assistance team through the passport control and security to the gate. Whatever option you choose, you are kindly requested to stay at the airport until the flight is airborne.
A member of the cabin crew will welcome your child on board and look after him/her during the flight. On European flights, we will offer your child a drink and a snack from our "buy-on-board" selection. On intercontinental flights, a child meal will be served to children up to 9 years. For children between 9 to 12 years, you can request a child meal when you contact our Service Centre for the booking. For children older than 12 years, a standard meal will be offered.
Our ground staff will escort your child through the airport arrival process. We will only release your child to the care of the parent or legal guardian, or to the connecting airline, once we have checked their identification. The authorised person who collects the child is kindly requested to be on time at the airport. If not, additional costs will be charged (meals, return transportation, accommodation,…).

- Description
The Yamaha APX700II electro acoustic guitar is a fantastic model for players and performers who require a budget-friendly guitar, but don't want to compromise on build quality, sound quality or playability. The APX700II benefits from the inclusion of the exclusive ART System 64 1-way preamp.
The body has been crafted using a carefully chosen combination of nato for the back and sides, and solid spruce as the top. Nato has the excellent properties of being highly resilient, strong and durable - making it excellent in guitars that travel frequently. The solid spruce top is a fantastic soundboard, as its impressive ability to resonate with little effort involved allows it to project the robust tone of the nato with vigour. This gives the APX700II a rich tonality with a wide dynamic range.
Fitted to the body is a nato neck, which as previously stated has superb strength, making it a fantastic playing platform to perform on. Paired with the neck is a sumptuous feeling rosewood fingerboard, which offers a crisp and articulate response across each and every one of the 22 available frets. Thanks to the deep single-cutaway body profile, the upper frets are within easy reach, giving you the freedom of the neck in its entirety.
ART preamps are known for picking up the true tone and nuances of a guitar, so with the Yamaha-exclusive System 64 on board the Yamaha APX700II you can expect to feel the body's full resonance projected through your amp.
The Yamaha APX700II screams to be used on-stage with a full tonal range being expressed, with crisp mids, beautifully weighted highs and reserved lows. The resonance of the guitar's unique body shape is accentuated by the non-scalloped X-type bracing, giving the top real clarity. With the cutaway design giving access to the top-frets, the APX thin-line body bringing playing comfort and a full tonal range being picked up by the amazing System 64 preamp the Yamaha APX700II would be a worthy addition to any gigging musicians arsenal.

Here's our spin on the roast-a-chicken-on-top-of-a-can-of-beer technique that's popular with barbecue aficionados. To simplify things, we just pour a little beer inside the chicken as it cooks. The beer keeps the meat juicy and a smoky-flavored spice rub both under and over the skin gives it extra flavor. Barbecuing poultry with the skin on helps prevent the meat from drying out. To keep calories and fat in check, remove the skin before serving.

T.I. famously served two stints in prison at the near-height of his career, and that time is one of the many subjects the rapper delves into in tonight's Behind the Music on VH1. The hour of television — which EW has an exclusive video sneak peek of below — is an update to the 2009 episode the series originally produced on T.I.
Of course, after T.I. (born Clifford Harris) was released from jail in 2010, he embarked on a media tour that found him talking about his time behind bars — and one of those appearances, a portion of a Larry King interview, is included in the exclusive clip below.
But T.I. also does a fresh interview with VH1, where he expresses some of the hardships of serving time. "I don't think I have to sell the fact that prison sucks," the rapper and father of six says in the exclusive clip below. "When you have your liberties and the loves of your life taken away from you, it puts a lot of things in perspective."
You can catch the entire Behind the Music: T.I. episode tonight at 10 p.m. on VH1, but until then, whet your appetite with this exclusive sneak peek at the hour here on EW.com:

Billionaire bankrolls Hwy. 9 improvements
A project to expand State Highway 9, which runs north through Grand and Summit counties, received a $4 million matching grant from the owner of Blue Valley Ranch. The announcement came during Tuesday's meeting of the Grand County Board of Commissioners, who all voiced their support for the project.
The Blue Valley Ranch, located outside of Kremmling, is owned by billionaire hedge fund manager Paul T. Jones II of Greenwich, Conn. Jones previously donated $945,000 to kickstart the improvement project.
The project will be submitted to the Colorado Department of Transportation's Responsible Acceleration of Maintenance and Partnerships (RAMP) program, which seeks to expedite important road improvement projects in the state. To qualify under RAMP, local governments must raise 20 percent of the total cost of a venture and submit an application that explains why a project should be put on a fasttrack for completion.
Total cost of the Hwy. 9 project is estimated by CDOT to be $46 million, which means the local match for the improvements would be approximately $9 million. With Blue Valley Ranch's existing $945,000 donation and the $4 million matching grant, $4.3 million is needed to meet that goal.
Citizens for a Safe Hwy. 9 Committee, headed by lifetime Grand County resident Mike Ritschard and formed by area residents, will assist Grand County commissioners in raising the necessary funding to make up the local government's share of the costs.
"The Citizens for a Safe Hwy. 9 Committee is deeply grateful for this incredibly generous matching pledge from Blue Valley Ranch," Ritschard said. "This is a great start to our campaign to raise the other half of the money we need to ensure safety improvements to Hwy. 9 in order to qualify for RAMP fasttrack consideration."
"We all know how dangerous it is to drive Hwy. 9," Ritschard added. "Too many of us have lost loved ones or seen them injured in accidents involving wildlife on that highway. Hwy. 9 deserves RAMP consideration."
From 1993 to 2012, CDOT reported 590 accidents on the stretch of Hwy. 9 that would be rebuilt if the project went through. Of those, 191 people were injured; 16 died. Wy. 9 has also been identified among the top 100 miles in Colorado impacted by wildlife migration. The highway also does not meet state construction standards.
Since 2006, there have been 455 documented wildlife mortalities from the Summit County line to the Colorado River.
"Almost daily we witness collisions between wildlife, cars and trucks out on Hwy. 9," said Perry Handyside, Blue Valley Ranch manager. "We decided we had to step forward and help."
"Blue Valley Ranch is showing the way here," said Grand County Commissioner Gary Bumgarner in a written statement supporting the project. "I hope others in this region will follow their lead and help us raise the remaining $4.3 million we need to get Hwy. 9 safety improvements on the front burner."
A pre-application for the RAMP program is due to CDOT by May 1, at which time CDOT officials will review each application and will sign the proposals that meet the minimum criteria for the program. On July 1, the full application for the project will be due to CDOT.
The project would include enhancements to help prevent accidents spawning from wildlife crossings on the highway from mile marker 126 to mile marker 137 if approved by CDOT. The stretch of highway included in this project is located between Green Mountain Reservoir and the Colorado River crossing.
The project would include five wildlife underpasses and two overpasses, the first of their kind in Colorado, as well as 8-foot fencing along the right of ways to push wildlife toward the crossings.
The project would also entail widening of the highway to meet state standards and vertical and horizontal alignments to meet the 65 mph design speed. Eight-foot shoulders would also be constructed along the highway, which would be large enough to accommodate a bike lane, and side slopes of the highway would be flattened to allow for a vehicle recovery area.
Hwy. 9 in this part of the Lower Blue River Valley runs through a winter migration path for wildlife, separating prime winter range on the east side of the highway from the only winter water source in the Blue River on the west side of the highway. This daily migration puts wildlife in the path of cars and trucks on the stretch of road, according to a press release from the Citizens for a Safe Hwy. 9 Committee.
The road is frequently used by school buses and by visitors traveling to recreation destinations in Summit, Grand, Routt and other counties in northwest Colorado. The highway can regularly become congested with traffic, according to the press release, which creates an even higher risk of collision between wildlife and vehicles, particularly at night.
"We have to do something to stop the collisions between vehicles and wildlife on Hwy. 9. They threaten the lives of all of the people who use that highway," Bumgarner said. "I want to thank Mike Ritschard and the other members of the Citizens for a Safe Highway 9 Committee. We have a lot of work to do and not much time to do it in."

Back to my favourite rhymes I go,
Keep the rhythm quick as we flow,
Appeares that writing voice is back,
No need now for all your life hacks,
The refrain encapsulates vision, souring high.
The grandest place to thrive, creativity cries.
Incased in suits, all bullet proof.
Meaning of powersuit, not aloof.
Fluttering new wings of glory,
Touching heaven, sparks gold stories.
Raining down vocabulary, feeling prose.
Writing anyways in poems, how this writer's mind grows.
Round in circles, form graceful dances ever-glowing.
Phoenix rising, as he spins.
Diving down, prey on fish with fins.
Consuming all the rhymes precision.
No one can claim indecision,
Choose the words, that force you far into a whirlpool.
Round you've spun, twirling; time granted swirling jewels.
Another verse rises, ascending,
Riding stairways, crescendoing.
Flying the stairway to heaven,
Lyrics, mana, and nectar; times seven.
Wings of angels, spirits, enchant; singing —
Back to my favourite anthem of life, song ringing.

Federal agencies are grappling with an unprecedented growth in data at the same time that backup solutions are nearing capacity, a situation that could hamper efforts to recover data in the event of an emergency.
Moreover, agency officials are not testing their disaster recovery solutions as often as they should, raising questions about their preparedness for a natural disaster or man-made incident, according to a survey of 150 federal defense and civilian IT managers in a new MeriTalk report.
Source: MeriTalk Survey: "Disaster Unpreparedness"
The study, "Disaster Unpreparedness," reveals that federal IT professionals lack confidence in their data resilience and disaster recovery capabilities. Although 70 percent of the IT professionals give themselves high marks — an "A" or "B" — in data backup and disaster recovery preparedness, only 8 percent are completely confident that they could recover 100 percent of the data subject to service-level agreements in the event of a disaster.
Almost half of the IT professionals think their agency's current data resilience and disaster recovery (DR2) solution is sufficient for the next 12 months, while one quarter believe their solution will get them through the next 12 months but not beyond. The average agency has 51 percent capacity left in its current backup solution, according to the report, which was underwritten by NetApp and SwishData.
Insufficient testing also poses a major concern. IT managers said their agencies tested disaster recovery solutions on an average of 2.5 times in the last 12 months, while most of the respondents recommend their agencies test on an average of 5.3 times per year. Most respondents said lack of budget prevented them from testing more often; others reasons for insufficient testing were lack of support from mission owners and incomplete testing solutions. Still, 61 percent of the IT managers said their agencies tested DR2 without any impact or interruption to production systems.
The growth of mobile devices poses more challenges because agencies are finding it difficult keep up with the demand to integrate them within their current disaster recovery systems. IT managers estimate that only 53 percent of data stored on mobile devices could be reliably restored to meet the requirements or their service-level agreements.
Agencies should be exploring more cloud-based disaster recovery solutions, because relying entirely on on-premise backup solutions could jeopardize government data, the report states. Fifty-nine percent of the agencies do not use any form of cloud-based disaster recovery solutions. Just one in three plan to increase, or start, using off-premise cloud backup in place of on-premise backup. Only 55 percent test their ability to restore data from a second location, the report states.
Interestingly, more than half of the survey respondents said virtualization has had a positive impact on their disaster recovery profile. Virtualization lets organizations decouple data and applications from an underlying physical infrastructure, allowing for more flexibility in provisioning new operating environments and balancing data loads across available resources, according to industry experts.
Virtualized workloads are increasing in government agencies and can have a positive impact on DR2, IT managers say. On average, IT managers expect virtualized workloads to almost double in the next four years, according to a 2012 MeriTalk survey. As a result, agencies need to look for ways to effectively manage disaster recovery in virtualized environments, the report states.
To achieve a more effective disaster recovery posture, agencies should assess their DR environment and perform regular tests, including on-premise and secondary locations, the report recommends. Agency disaster recovery plans should include an assessment of all facets of disaster recovery including people, processes and technology.

Fugitive found in Nepal back in New Mexico custody
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — A New Mexico man who fled sex abuse and kidnapping charges 14 years ago returned to the state Saturday following his capture in Nepal, the FBI said.
Neil Stammer, 47, arrived in the afternoon at the Albuquerque International Sunport, FBI spokesman Frank Fisher said.
Stammer will be booked on outstanding warrants at the Bernalillo County Metropolitan Detention Center, according to Albuquerque police.
The owner of a local magic shop and a juggler, Stammer was arrested in 1999 on allegations of criminal sexual penetration of a minor, kidnapping, intimidation of a witness, battery and criminal sexual contact of a minor. Stammer was allowed to bond out before his arraignment, authorities said.
The former Albuquerque resident already had an arrest warrant for failing to appear at his arraignment. A federal arrest warrant was issued in June 2000 for Stammer for unlawful flight to avoid prosecution, authorities said.
The FBI and investigators from multiple jurisdictions used investigative photos to determine that Stammer had used a fraudulent passport to enter Nepal, Fisher said. He briefly escaped prison in Katmandu but was recaptured by Nepal authorities.
Stammer had been living there since 2006 under a different name.
He is expected to face state charges.

UPDATE: Erin Stack, the Bergen mom who finally was found more than three weeks after she'd gone missing, was "being questioned as a victim" Wednesday afternoon, her mother told Daily Voice.
"Passaic County prosecutors are [the] ones who called me," Lori Stack Greenleaf told Daily Voice. "I spoke to her briefly."
No more was being said other than that Erin Stack was safe and being hospitalized following unspecified trouble.
Meanwhile, the investigation by prosecutor's detectives continued.
Relative Jessica Greenleaf, posted earlier on Facebook:
"ERIN HAS BEEN FOUND & IS NOW SAFE. WE CAN NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YET (as per the police). But she is in a safe place & has spoken briefly to my mom & we will be seeing her shortly!!!!"
Greenleaf established a GoFundMe reward to help find Stack that had reached nearly $9,000.
Lori Stack, said Tuesday night that they "were missing a piece of our puzzle" that loved ones were hoping to put back together.
Her daughter has frequented Paterson and was last seen there after applying for housing, her mother previously said.
Concern deepened and reward donations increased as the search for a 35-year-old Bergen County mom neared the end of its third week.
The Guardian Angels joined the search for Erin Stack, fanning out through the city last week. They planned another go-round this week.
Stack, formerly of Ridgefield Park, was last seen around 4 p.m. on May 22 in Paterson, where she took a photo with a friend.
She had just filed paperwork for housing assistance in the city at the non-profit Eva's Village, said her mother, Lori Stack.
Stack was wearing a black Johnny Cash T-shirt -- a Mother's Day present from her 7-year-old daughter, Emma -- along with a gray sweater, black-and-white striped stretch pants, black Converse sneakers and a blue bandana headband, and was carrying a small handbag and some makeup, her mother said.
"Erin suffers from multiple disorders," Greenleaf wrote a little over a week ago. "She does not have her meds with her. She had a brand new phone, and her charger with her. However, the phone has been dead since the night of May 22. We are super concerned and worried."
Having just moved to Rochelle Park, her mother filed a missing persons report with police there.
Stack's sister, Jessica Greenleaf, launched a GoFundMe that by Monday afternoon had raised more than $4,500, every penny of which she said would go toward the search -- including a reward for whoever finds Erin.
Anyone who sees Erin Stack, or knows where to find her, is asked to immediately call Rochelle Park police: (201) 843-1515 .

About Eye
Eye Art Collective is an independent feminist collective founded in early 2013. We are composed of student activists, artists, journalists, writers, filmmakers, designers and illustrators. We manage Eyezine, an online webzine through which we report on issues and events in our country and throughout the world. We also provide a platform for independent artists and focus on emerging countercultures that challenge the status quo.
We are a feminist collective, believing in a system beyond hierarchy, free from discrimination, and resisting all forms of exploitation and domination. As feminists, we acknowledge the right to bodily autonomy and the right to self-rule, which is denied by patriarchy. We believe in intersectional feminism that fights for LGBTQIA+ rights, and all womyn's rights, whether fringe or privileged.
We acknowledge that the patriarchy or the system of a male-dominated society exists throughout the intersecting barriers of class, race, caste and religion present in India. Therefore, in order to address gender oppression, it is important to demolish the kyriarchy, an intersectional extension of the idea of patriarchy. Kyriarchy refers to all hierarchies of race, class, caste, sex and religion. It proposes the idea that oppression is dynamic and that each person is oppressed and privileged in their own way.
Eyezine was founded out of a necessity for independent media with a feminist perspective. We felt the need to create an inclusive and alternative multimedia platform to challenge mainstream narratives of art and culture which ignores fringe voices, and to subvert dominant gender paradigms through our work to offer feminist responses to social political issues that affect us.
The first feminist zines were created to challenge the mainstream narrative, usher in counterculture and bring fringe narratives to surface. Eyezine is a volunteer-run effort to create a similar feminist countercultural network on a global platform through the internet. We accept contributions from writers, artists and activists without any discrimination. There is a small team of volunteer writers, photographers and editors who cover local news and cultural developments, and work based on a DIY ethos.
For submission guidelines to the zine, click here or if you have already read them, shoot us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
All Eyezine writers and editors are volunteers who work year round without pay on a pro bono basis, so please consider donating to help support the zine.
If you wish to join Eye Art Collective, collaborate on a project, want to write for Eyezine, or simply want to know more about what we do, fill up this form.

Composition, Duties, and Responsibilities of the Purdue University Laser Safety Committee (D-2)
EXECUTIVE MEMORANDUM No. D-2
August 1, 2001
To: Provosts, Vice Presidents, Deans, Directors, and Heads of Schools, Divisions, Departments, and Offices
Re: Composition, Duties, and Responsibilities of the Purdue University Laser Safety Committee

The Purdue University Laser Safety Committee shall consist of faculty and staff who by their knowledge and experience are qualified to make judgments and recommend policy in the area of laser safety. Committee members shall be appointed by the President upon recommendation of the Vice President for Research and the Vice President for Physical Facilities in consultation with the various deans, directors, and department heads. The chairperson, a member of the tenured faculty, also shall be appointed by the President. The Head of Radiological and Environmental Management, with the approval of the LSC, will appoint the Laser Safety Officer (LSO). The LSO should be an individual trained in the area of laser science or health physics. The LSO will report directly to the Head of Radiological and Environmental Management. The Head will be responsible for implementation and enforcement of policies and procedures promulgated by the LSC. The Head and Laser Safety Officer shall serve as ex officio voting members of the Committee.
The Committee shall meet at least once per semester if there are pending issues for committee action, or at the request of any member. Attendance by at least 50% of the members is required for a quorum. The chairperson or the Laser Safety Officer or their duly authorized representatives, are authorized to act as agents of the Committee between meetings to ensure the timely processing of applications and to conduct other business. Any action taken by the chairperson or Laser Safety Officer on behalf of the Committee shall be reported at the next meeting.
The duties and responsibilities of the Committee are:
- Assume responsibility for defining an environment that promotes the safe use of lasers and laser systems.
- Prescribe procedures, conditions, requirements, and restrictions as necessary to protect University employees, students, visitors, the public, and the environment from hazards associated with lasers and laser systems. Such policies and procedures, conditions, restrictions, and requirements shall be consistent with federal or state regulations or recognized consensus standards.
- Review, approve, or disapprove applications to acquire, fabricate, use, or transfer Class 3b and 4 lasers or laser systems at Purdue University facilities and operations. Committee approval must be obtained before any project involving Class 3b or 4 lasers or laser systems is initiated. (Laser classes are defined in the American National Standard for Safe Use of Lasers — ANSI Z136.1-1993 and later versions of this standard.)
- Prepare and disseminate information on laser safety and the policies, rules, procedures, and practices related thereto, for the use and guidance of staff and students. Assist staff with facility design, proposal costing, training, and other programmatic needs.
- Recommend to department and school administration appropriate physical improvements necessary to raise existing facilities to a level consistent with current laser safety standards.
- Keep a written record of the activities, actions, decisions, recommendations, transactions, communications, and reports involving the work of the Committee.
- Submit an annual report detailing the activities of the Committee to the Vice President for Research and the Vice President for Physical Facilities.
Actions of the Committee may be appealed to the President through the Vice President for Research and the Vice President for Physical Facilities with the knowledge and consent of the department head or director of the unit involved.
The Laser Safety Officer or his/her designee, consistent with the protection of University employees, students, visitors, the public, and the environment, is authorized to:
- Carry out unannounced inspections and laser surveys of any University facility.
- Order immediate shutdown or cessation of work in any facility where it is evident that safety hazards exist to the extent of endangering vision, life, or property or to the extent that continued operation would result in a violation of existing federal, state, or University regulations.

KT tape also known as Kinesio tape is specialized tape that is applied over the muscle to lower pain and inflammation. It is also used to relax the fatigued muscles and also support muscle movement throughout the day. Unlike other traditional sporting tapes that are wrapped around a joint for support and stabilization only during a sporting event, Kinesio tape is not a restrictive tape; it allows full range of motion. Kinesio tape is used in wide range of problems such as;
Carpal tunnel syndrome, knee conditions, sub-luxation's, lower back strain or pain, herniated disc, shoulder conditions and sports injuries among other applications.
Kinesio is the most popular type of tape
For years, Kinesio tape has gained popularity has the ideal tape that is not only used in sporting events, but also in hospitals. The popularity is attributed to its wide range of uses as well as number of benefits that cannot be achieved with other tapes. For comfort and breathing, Kinesio tape has 100% high grade cotton.
It has 140% elastic that makes gives it same flexibility has human skin.
It is designed with heat activated adhesive, very light hypo-allergenic latex free.
For easy air circulation, Kinesio tape is designed to channel out water and sweat and also enhance breathing and free circulation of air.
Durable and more economical- unlike the traditional sporting tapes that are only used once in a day, Kinesio tape average usage is three to four days per application. It is also economical because a roll of tape has 6 to 7 applications.
Undoubtedly, use of Kinesio tape is the most unique technique. Kinesio taping require a tape that matches and is friendly to the patient's skin- same thickness as patients skin, has the best elastic qualities and is also durable to stay on patient's skin for many days amid sweat, showers and perspirations.
Benefits of KT tape
There are many benefits of using Kinesio tape. Some of the benefits include;
Pain relief- Kinesio improves lymphatic flow. With better lymphatic flow, there is reduction in swellings which lowers activation of the pain receptors. This may provide immediate pain relief.
Reduces swellings and inflammations- reduced pressure on lymphatic system allows efficient removal of fluids and other materials that collect on the area.
Prevents and relieves spasm and cramping- Kinesio tape is effective in preventing or relieving spasm and cramps in the injured muscles.
Speeds recovery of the overused or injured muscles- overused, fatigued muscles contain byproducts such as lactic acid that limits your ability to continue exercising. When you apply Kinesio tape over these areas, it enhances removal of these byproducts allowing for rapid recovery. This may improves endurance and performance, or may boost recovery between repetitive high intensity events.
Kinesio tape provides support without restricting motion- Kinesio Tape's unique elastic properties allows it to provide support to the injured joint or muscle without restricting motion.
Another use of Kinesio tape is that it allows when used as a therapeutic tape, athletes to remain active while injured. The tape can prevent over contraction or overstretching of the injured muscle.

How to Print a Web Page from Windows 8
Although information-stuffed web pages look awfully tempting, printing those web pages even from within Windows 8 is rarely satisfying because they look so awful on paper. When sent to the printer, web pages often run off the page's right side, consume zillions of additional pages, or appear much too small to read.
To make matters worse, all those colorful advertisements can suck your printer's color cartridges dry fairly quickly. Only four things make for successfully printed web pages, and here, they are ranked in order of probable success rate:
Use the web page's built-in Print option. Some websites, but not all, offer a tiny menu option called Print This Page, Text Version, Printer-Friendly Version, or something similar. That option tells the website to strip out its garbage and reformat the page so that it fits neatly onto a sheet of paper. This option is the most reliable way to print a web page.
Choose Print Preview from your browser's File or Print menu. After 15 years, some web page designers noticed that people want to print their pages, so they tweaked the settings, making their pages automatically reformat themselves when printed. If you're lucky, a clean look in the Print Preview window confirms that you've stumbled onto one of those printer-friendly sites.
Copy the portion you want and paste it into WordPad. Try selecting the desired text from the web page, copying it, and pasting it into WordPad or another word processor. Delete any unwanted remnants, adjust the margins, and print the portion you want.
Copy the entire page and paste it into a word processor. Although it's lots of work, it's an option. Right-click a blank portion of the web page and choose Select All. Right-click again and choose Copy. Next, open Microsoft Word or another full-featured word processor and paste the web page inside a new document. By hacking away at the unwanted portions, you can sometimes end up with something printable.
These tips may also come in handy for moving a web page from screen to paper:
If you spot an E-Mail option but no Print option, e-mail the page to yourself. You may have better success printing it as an e-mail message.
To print just a few paragraphs of a web page, use the mouse to select the portion you're after. Choose Print from Internet Explorer's Tools menu (shown in the margin) to open the Print dialog box. Then, in the Page Range box, choose the Selection option.
If a web page's table or photo insists on vanishing off the paper's right edge, try printing the page in Landscape mode rather than Portrait.

Having carpets and rugs periodically cleaned makes them last longer and look better, and improves your home's air quality.
The company you choose to do the job impacts how well the job gets done: how good your carpets and rugs look afterward, and how long they stay looking good, whether difficult stains are removed, and whether the cleaning methods and products they used attract dirt rather than remove it. With the least competent companies you risk permanent damage from overwetting, improper or poorly mixed chemicals, improper brushing, and other shoddy practices. Our Ratings Tables reveal how area consumers have rated local carpet and rug cleaners.
Before hiring a cleaner, ask for a written workmanship guarantee that the company will at least redo the job if you find it unsatisfactory. Discuss in advance whether there are some stains or other problems that it can't guarantee it can eliminate.
Compare prices. Rug cleaners will quote prices for most jobs over the phone, but if your carpets or rugs are especially dirty or unusual in some other way, that may not be possible. If you can't get over-the-phone quotes, ask companies to come to your home to provide estimates. Our Ratings Tables include price information our mystery shoppers collected from each company for both in-home carpet cleaning and in-plant rug cleaning.

Middle Aged Thinnification
Kim Basinger has been embroiled in a bitter custody battle with ex husband Alec Baldwin for years. And because Hollywood hates women over 40, her profile over the same period has been significantly lower while Alec's career continues to thrive. But enough bra burning for one day… this is about Kim in Germany for some event yesterday showing off some serious thinnification.
As a former model and of course a veteran actress, Kim has always been beautiful and she has also always been slender. Call me Cruise but I think aging requires a little plump to soften things up. Look at Susan Sarandon. Who better than Susan Sarandon?
Susan is almost 8 years older than Kim. Does is look it? Not to me.
