Rihanna Announces Details For 777 Tour
Rihanna has revealed the following dates for her 777 tour. According to Billboard the tour, which is promoting her new album Unapologetic that drops next week, will hit seven cities in seven countries over a seven-day period:
* Mexico City: November 14th
* Toronto: November 15
* Stockholm: November 16
* Paris: November 17
* Berlin: November 18
* London: November 19
* New York City: November 20
The singer said in a press release, "I am so excited about the 777 Tour. We are turning this jumbo jet into our tour bus. We're practically living on this thing for a week: sleeping, partying, all together. Me, my fans, the press… it's going to be a wild ride. I wanted it to be a rock n' roll adventure, and I think when it's over it will be the coolest thing I've ever done. I'm that excited about it."


text: We've settled down on Jeremy Starks who's got two 5 1/2-pounders and three smaller ones. "I've caught a blue million babies. I've got a point I can pull up on and catch 2-pounder after 2-pounder after 2-pounder." All over the lake there are sporadic splashes, most of which look like a gar scooting along, then you'll hear one with a distinct slurp. Starks, like everyone else, assumed they were gar until, on a whim, he fired a topwater out. "I threw that thing, and 'bam!' he smoked it. It was a giant, too. I got six or seven turns of the reel handle, then he came off. It was a giant." No doubt he's still got a topwater plug on deck. He's got a Carolina rig in his hands, however.

The number of London hospitals with maternity units could be almost halved to concentrate specialist care on fewer larger sites.
It follows the deaths in childbirth of 73 women in three years. Health chiefs want midwives to have fewer pregnant women under their care and for consultant obstetricians to be available 24/7 to handle the rise in more complex births.
Experts say this is likely to lead to the closure of many of the 26 hospital maternity units across the capital
London has had the highest maternal mortality rates in the country, though the number of deaths has fallen from 31 in 2010/11 to 23 in 2011/12 and 19 in the last financial year.
But as the growth in population is likely to see 135,000 births this year, NHS England's London region has imposed new standards for the care of pregnant women.
It wants all hospitals to have 24-hour consultant cover, for each midwife responsible for no more than 28 births and for one-to-one midwife care during "active" labour. At present only six hospitals have obstetricians available round the clock while only four — the Whittington, Lewisham, King's College and St Thomas' — meet the 1:28 midwife to mum-to-be ratio.
Angela Helleur, assistant medical director NHS England (London), said there was an "unacceptable level of variation in maternity services" across the capital. Not one hospital met all of the new standards of care.
Professor Jacqueline Dunkley-Bent, director of midwifery and nursing at Imperial College trust, drew up the new standards with Jane Wilson, consultant obstetrician/gynaecologist at Kingston hospital.
Professor Dunkley-Bent said: "Maternity services in London are seeing more complex cases and the introduction of these new standards will help to ensure that women receive high quality and safe care regardless of the time of day, day of the week or place of birth."

Does anyone know when ever the scat pack are released will it come from the factory with one of the 3 stages or will you be able to buy the stage you want for your dart you already have?
@itsgodzilla The Scat Packages are not out for any vehicles at this time. The only new item that came out are for the Challengers and it's the Shaker Hood.
@csobs The only information Dodge has given us is that it will be released in Spring and everything stated at SEMA is subject to change.
I guess from what everyone is saying is that I will be able to buy the stage I want and put it on a existing car
There is already a thread that has LOTS of info and specualation there

You know customized search engines are main stream when…
Posted by Daniel Katz in Marketing, World Gone Crazy on March 21, 2007
Gizmodo is clearly again on the top of things with this important news. K Fed has his own search engine! For some reason I think this is going a bit in the direction of over targeting your search engine. Then again this is a neat example of a way for PRODEGE to promote its services and a much better way for K Fed to provide his fan(s) a better site than the average celebrity.
Work on Your Writing Skills
One of the many reason i have started this blog is to work on my writing skills. Besides being a horrible speller, my grammar could certainly use a lot of assistance. A few months back Dumb Little Man had a great post about the Poynter Institutes writing series. I have just started using this series and it is a great help. Over time I am sure that anyone who reads my blog will appreciate that I am working on my writing.
This does bring up another interesting point. I have been looking for some time for such a resource and stumbled upon this in the blog posting. I spend at least a couple of hours a day reading many blogs, news sites and newsletters. Even then I feel I am far behind the curve on knowing what is out there in my own field. The fact that the Internet is bigger than the Library at Alexandria could ever have hope to become means that it is truly daunting these days to experiment. It is no wonder that people return to their same comfortable bookmarks each day. Yes, the whole point of the Internet is that it is the container for all of mankind's possibilities. But you know, there was something nice back in the day about wandering through the stacks and discovering a cool book.
Donut Maker – Gotta Git One
Those who know me know that I cannot pass up on a donut. Good, bad, fresh, stale – their donusts and you have to love them. Then again, I think pop-tarts are a culinary delight. My co-workers think I should blog everyday on what I eat for breakfast to simply shock folks. (1 coffe roll).
Well, then I see on Gizmodo this great Simpson Donut Maker. WOW! I mean, DUH! I may need to get one of these for my office!!!
Hollywood creates Boy Scout merit badge on copyright
Posted by Daniel Katz in World Gone Crazy on June 30, 2006
Some of my fondest childhood memories are those of a Cub Scout and Boy Scout hiking, campaign, knot tyeing and learning various skills with my hands that I still use everyday. While there are various social and political issues facing the Scouting movement, it is such a shame that Scouting has come to the point of focusing on such something so far from the Powell ideas of a scout to have a merit badge for Copyright. Sure, Scouts are expected to understand and obey the law. However, I feel that this could be included in the subject matter of a traditional merit badge and more focus paid to activities that get the scout out into the fields and forests.

After much though and research, and realizing that my woodworking skills are average at best, I've decided on the 8 frame medium detailed at Honey Run Apiaries.
I'm thinking 1X4's would make it a lot less bulky looking, not to mention a bit lighter...but just want to make sure it's still structurally sound.
Also, I'm toying with the idea of leaving off the jar feeder, since I'm trying not to feed unless absolutely necessary...in an emergency I'd simply insert a frame of honey instead.
Hmm, their image links are broken for me, but there's the Wayback Machine's copy.
After much though and research, and realizing that my woodworking skills are average at best, I've decided on the 8 frame medium detailed at Honey Run Apiaries.LINK to PDF of Plans
My question is ...Is it really necessary to build the outer frame with 2X4's? . . . I'm thinking 1X4's would make it a lot less bulky looking, not to mention a bit lighter...but just want to make sure it's still structurally sound.
Issue #1, The current design that I'm following calls for the frames of the doors to butt up against the inside frame when the doors or shut. I see two potential problems there, First, a lot of smashed bees when closing the door, and second, an invitation for them to propolize the seam. a 7/8" door frame is what is currently called for and would fit flush. What would be the problem or drawback to making my door frame 1/2" wide, assuming it'll be structurally sound, thus leaving 3/8" (bee space) between the inside frame and door frame when shut???
Issue #2, This design doesn't have a screen bottom with an accessible clean out drawer or compartment...I had not planned on putting one either, but could possibly still modify mid project to accommodate one...but would prefer not to! Is this a mistake and this is really needed, or is it more of a "nice to have", but not a must?
Probably a good choice. I don't recommend anything smaller than 3 deep frames or 4 medium frames. Personally I don't really like anything larger than 6 medium frames, just due to the weight of the item, but this size should work nicely for you. The single frame thickness is key, in my opinion, to truly maximizing the value you get from an observation hive (and really seeing everything that happens). The design also doesn't call for many complex joints or cuts, which is good for a modest woodworker.
I'd recommend against going with 1x4's. Two concerns I get. First, you are using but joints in the corners, not complex joints (which is fine). A screw put into end grain doesn't provide fantastic hold as is. Now add into the fact that you cut down the thickness of the wood by half, reducing the surface area that will be glued, and it's a significantly weaker joint. In addition, this thing should be about 5 feet tall I think, with only a little bit of support in the middle. A 1" thick board (which is really .75" thick) and 5 feet long can really bend considerably. A 2" thick board (which is really 1.5" thick) will also bend, but much less so. Trust me when I say this, you don't want any of these boards to bend or shift when you are moving this thing from it's stable spot to outdoors for maintenance . . . TRUST ME!One of my designs had a think peice of wood on the side rails. I had to throw it into a car to take the hive to an outyard to stock it before taking it back home (which really wasn't a good idea anyway). I hit a bump in the road, the wood flexed, popped out of the locking mechanism that was holding it in place, and the hive burst open. While I was on a highway, in an enclosed car. Your situation isn't as extreme, I know, but the same thing could happen when you move it outside to do maintenance. You'll need two people to move it (it will be heavy, regardless of whether you use 1" or 2" wood), and if you lay it on it's side (any side) the wood may flex some.Not to say you can't use 1" thick wood. Looks like you already chose that. But just test it out before you put bees in it. If it seems to flex a little, glue another 1" thick board to the outside. My take on it at least.
I'd change your thought process post haste. You need a jar feeder. You need a feeder of some kind. Even if you hope to never use it, have it anyway.Observation hive colonies can't really regulate brood or temps like they can in a normal colony. As a result, they are very "boom" or "bust". The issues an observation hive encounters are the same issues a normal colony encounters, only it has a much quicker effect on the colony overall, for one because their configuration is different, but mainly because their population is smaller. I've seen Observation Hives crash in a matter of days, for a variety of reasons. One of a few being not enough stores. So you need to be able to feed them at the moment you notice a problem, and not later, as the weather may not be right for you to take them outside and do the work you need to (or you don't have time because of work, or you don't have a second person around to help you move the hive). While a normal hive will hang in there for a few days for you to get around to it, an Observation Hive won't always. They'll just swarm, abscond, die, get infested with SHB (or wax moths occasionally) all because you didn't get around to it that day.Get a feeder. You won't regret it.
By saying the inside frame is butted up against the frame of the door, I'm assuming you are referring to the "self spacing" portions of the end bars on the frames, right?If so, this is exactly what you want. As tight of a fit in this spot, the better (believe it or not). This will literally hold the frame in place as you move the whole observation hive inside or out. Larger and it will shift when you move it. When that happens, it's impossible to correct. You can lose an entire side of one frame, as the bee space becomes too small, and it gets infested with SHB as they can't clean it out. The other side then becomes too thick, and bee space is not right, and the bees build wax on the frame. A disaster (again, I know from personal experience).The key in a good observation hive is two fold:1. The frame of the door butts up tight to the self spacing portion of the frame end bars (and you can put vasaline on the door frame or end bars before you close it, which cuts down considerably on propolis), and 2. The glass of the door (or window) recessed away from the door itself. If not (like if you took a sheet of glass and just screwed it to the side of the observation hive) the bee space is off. Remember to maintain the right bee space from GLASS TO GLASS! That's 1 3/4" from my perspective (talked about this issue in Post #9 here: http://forum.beemaster.com/index.php/topic,30161.0.html). Some observation hives are slightly more, others slightly less. Mike Bush talks about this somewhere on his website, and opinions vary, but 1 3/4" from glass to glass appears to work best for me.
Not a must at all. I've had it in some, not in others. I haven't really noticed any difference. In my last build, I had a slide out drawer so I could do mite counts. I don't think I ever really did. It ends up making a compartment that the bees can't access and clean, so you have to (more work for you). Without the screen, the bees will clean it out when they need to. I've seen, occasionally, when things get really bad, they may not clean out the bottom right away. But that's really just an indication to you that something is going on that might require your intervention.As long as the ventilation in the hive is correct, you don't need a screened bottom. Proper vent holes are, however, necessary.Let me know if any of it wasn't clear. I'll see if I can help in any way possible.
Your designs have the "Inner Side" pieces being 1 3/4". I would trim these down to 1 3/8" thick. Your "rails" already provide for 3/16" between the "inner sides" and the glass. This will make the 1 3/4" from glass to glass you're looking for, and will hold the frames in place just the way you want. Then you just need to adjust the parts around the inner sides to accommodate the "trim".
as well as plan on using 1/4" glass instead of plexiglass, as you suggested.
One afterthought....do you think the middle piece on each door between the two pieces of glass is adding something structurally, or is one sheet of glass per side possibly an option?
Why have doors on both sides?

With senior defensive tackle Jeff Owens going down with a season-ending knee injury and Kade Weston out against Central Michigan, the rotation on the interior of Georgia's defensive line could be awfully thin this week.
The problem might have been worse if not for the surprising emergence of Brandon Wood.
The sophomore has battled injuries since coming to Georgia three years ago and battled through a nagging hamstring injury during the preseason, so coaches weren't expecting much when he hit the field against Georgia Southern. He ended up credited with four tackles and a pass breakup.
"Wood definitely played better than he practiced, I can tell you that," head coach Mark Richt said. "Coach (Rodney) Garner was a little reluctant to play him a lot, but when Jeff got hurt, it probably changed things a little bit. But that kid played hard."
Wood will be in line for more playing time this week behind starters Corvey Irvin and Geno Atkins. Richt said Wood was ahead of sophomore Ricardo Crawford on the depth chart and would likely fight for playing time alongside freshman DeAngelo Tyson.
"He's certainly got a ways to go," Richt said of Wood, "but he played better than his practice performances."
Georgia played 20 freshmen against Georgia Southern last Saturday, so Richt got to watch plenty of footage of his youngsters after the game. One clip, however, stood out.
Richt and his staff spend plenty of time in the preseason preaching the importance of blocking to his freshmen, and on one Caleb King run in the second half of the Bulldogs' opening week win, he saw footage that couldn't help but put a smile on his face.
"(Freshman lineman) Cordy Glenn is blocking a guy basically out of the frame," Richt said. "(Freshman wide receiver) Tavarres King is blocking a guy 35 yards down the field, just staying after him the whole way, and Caleb King making people miss."
Three freshmen doing exactly what they were taught might not seem like a big deal, but Richt said it was clear how impressive they were.
"Everybody else was playing good," Richt said, "but they all did something stellar on the same play, and that was pretty neat to watch."
When asked whether he would have given wide receiver Kris Durham a hard time if he had been caught from behind on his 61-yard touchdown reception, quarterback Matthew Stafford said he didn't really have too much faith in Durham's speed.
"I kind of expected it to happen, so I wouldn't have given him too hard a time," Stafford said. "But going straight ahead, he can really go."

/// Are You Ready for Some Freakball? DirecTV Tells Tall Tales in Ads From Grey
DirecTV's NFL Sunday Ticket, which offers every game live on any digital device, turns average Joes into "the world's most powerful fans" in three goofy spots from Grey. These godlike guys grow freakishly tall, grill burgers using their bare hands as spatulas and ride around on lightning bolts and date adoring goddesses clad in sparkly bikinis and Mercury-winged caps. They're like the Titans—from mythology, not Tennessee—reborn as outsized, sports-obsessed, media-savvy fanboys. Meanwhile, regular dudes who still watch the games on cable are portrayed as nebbishy geeks. Guys are hyper-competitive and love to brag about everything, so I can see where these ads would appeal to some. And they're visually memorable. That said, they seem a tad mean-spirited, portraying "powerful" football fans as boastful loudmouths who lord it over everyone in earshot. What? You've got the game on DirecTV? Well, good for you, big man!

Do any of you out there live in the snow belt?? I live in Northeast Wisconsin and already have one winter with my CTS under my belt. This car performed horribly in the snow with the 17" V rated low profile tires. I would like to buy snow tires for this winter season and was wondering if anyone else out there has purchased snow tires and could tell me how the CTS performed with the snow tires and what brand of snow tires you purchased.
I have already bought a spare rim set of the 16" painted aluminum rims that come on the base model CTS. (I currently have the polished aluminum 17" rims that come with the luxury sport package.) All I need now is some snow tires. All the research I have done tells me that the snow tires will make a huge difference in the handling of this vehicle in the snow. I have narrowed my tire choices down to the Nokian Hakka Q or the Kuhmo Izen's.
Any discussion on this subject is much appreciated.

I had acne from about age 13 to 23. I tried home remedies, over the counter acne products, and the whole run of prescriptions for acne from creams to antibiotics. I took Accutane for 6 months and a year later still had some breakouts. Took again 3 months and rarely have pimples now. The only side effects I had were dry, flaking skin, very sensitive to sun and scarring. No depression/suicidal thoughts, tummy problems. I feel like I have born-again skin. It is nothing like it was before. It is normal/combination now and the scars are hard to see. I would do it again in a second and I tell many many people about my experience with Accutane.

- Robert Bly
Since the 1960s, Robert Bly has written poetry that is nonacademic, based in the natural world, the visionary, and the realm of the irrational. As a poet, editor and translator, Bly has profoundly affected American verse, introducing many unknown European and South American poets to new readers. In addition to his poetic endeavors, he has gained attention for his theories on the roots of social problems, and his efforts to help men reclaim their masculinity and channel it in a positive direction. Bly's poetry is often categorized as part of the deep image school of writing, in which the poet employs a system of private imagery; however, Bly's wish is not to create a personal mythology, but rather to describe modern American life through powerful metaphors and intense imagery. Two of his major inspirations in this regard have been Spanish-language writers César Vallejo and Federico Garcia Lorca. Hugh Kenner, writing in the New York Times Book Review, remarked that "Bly is attempting to write down what it's like to be alive, a state in which, he implies, not all readers find themselves all the time."
Bly was born in western Minnesota and grew up in a community dominated by Norwegian immigrant farmers and their culture. After two years in the Navy, he attended St. Olaf College in Minnesota before transferring to Harvard where he associated with other graduates who went on to make their name as writers, including Donald Hall, Adrienne Rich, John Ashbery, John Hawkes, George Plimpton, and Kenneth Koch. After his graduation in 1950, Bly spent some time in New York City before studying for two years at the University of Iowa Writers Workshop, along with W. D. Snodgrass and Donald Justice. In 1956, he traveled on a Fulbright grant to Norway, where he translated Norwegian poetry into English. Translation helped shape the scope of Bly's career. While in Norway, he discovered the work of many poets who would influence him greatly, including Neruda, Vallejo, and Gunnar Ekeloef. He founded his literary magazine and publishing house, The Fifties (which later changed its name to reflect the passing decades), as a forum for translated poetry. Returning to Minnesota, he took up residence on a farm with his wife, the short story writer Carol Bly, and their children.
Bly's first widely acclaimed collection was Silence in the Snowy Fields (1962). In an author's note, Bly stated that he is "interested in the connection between poetry and simplicity. . . . The fundamental world of poetry is an inward world. We approach it through solitude." He added that the poems in this volume "move toward that world." Writing for the New York Times Book Review, Wallace Fowlie said, "Mr. Bly's poems name delicate, humble things, and at the same time describe man assuming his existence, beginning over again the test of illusions. At the end of each poem there is silence, without complaint."
Bly's second book, The Light around the Body (1967), won the National Book Award. Unlike the meditative "deep images" of nature that had filled Silence in the Snowy Fields, The Light around the Body included poems attacking US involvement in the Vietnam War. The book showed Bly attempting to unite public and private realms in poetry, a project that would continue to influence both his own work and his role as a public poet. In 1966, Bly cofounded American Writers against the Vietnam War, led much of the opposition among writers to that war, and even contributed his National Book Award prize money to the antiwar effort. The 1970s were a prolific decade for him, in which he published eleven books of poetry, essays, and translations. In books such as Sleepers Joining Hands (1973) and This Tree Will Be Here for a Thousand Years (1979), Bly returned to both the bucolic tradition of his first book and the antiwar themes that had marked his second, as well as celebrating the power of myth, Indian ecstatic poetry, meditation, and storytelling. He was strongly influenced by the work of Robert Graves, and his poetry showed his interest in mythology, Jungian psychology and pre-Christian religion. Bly's most popular books from the 1980s include The Man in the Black Coat Turns (1981), which contains several prose poems and meditations on father-son relationships; Selected Poems (1986); and Loving a Woman in Two Worlds (1987), a volume that explores love, intimacy and relationships.
In 1979, Bly and Carol Bly divorced, an event which precipitated a serious crisis of the soul for the poet. His emotional journey eventually led him to begin, with James Hillman and Michael Meade, a series of seminars for men. Participants were encouraged to reclaim their male traits and to express their severely repressed feelings through poetry, stories, and other rites. Bly's work in this area led to the character of "Iron John." Based on a fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm, the figure came to stand for an archetype that could help men connect with their psyches and eventually became a book by the same name. In Iron John: A Book about Men (1990), Bly argues that modern men are greatly damaged by an absence of intergenerational male role models and initiation rituals. Some critics found Bly's work to be anti-feminist; he replied by acknowledging and denouncing the dark side of male domination and exploitation. And while some continued to argue that Bly was advocating a return to traditional gender roles for both men and women, others assailed what they saw as Bly's indiscriminate, New Age-influenced salad of tidbits from many traditions. But still others found great value in the book, stressing its importance to contemporary culture's ongoing redefinition of sexuality. As Deborah Tannen put it in the Washington Post Book World, "This rewarding book is an invaluable contribution to the gathering public conversation about what it means to be male—or female." Iron John was at the top of the New York Times best-seller list for ten weeks and stayed on the list for more than a year.
Bly continued his social criticism in The Sibling Society (1997). The book contends that Americans are like a race of perpetual adolescents, and as a result lack empathy or sympathy. The root of these problems, in Bly's opinion, is both an erosion of respect for authority and a lack of cross-generational support. John Bemrose, reviewing The Sibling Society in Maclean's, remarked that Bly "brings a unique ability to bear on the subject as an interpreter of folktales and great literature," explaining the way "a constant bombardment of advertising keeps the hunger for new goods raging, and as corporations convince politicians that they must be allowed to do what they like (essentially taking over the leadership of society), people succumb to an infantile need for instant gratification." The book was popularly praised.
Throughout his career, Bly has maintained his devotion to translating the world's visionary poetry, often in an attempt to counteract what he has seen as the dry or lifeless qualities of high modernism. In addition to the poets he introduced through his influential series of decade journals (The Fifties, Sixties and Seventies), Bly has translated poets as various as Rainer Maria Rilke, Antonio Machado, Tomas Tranströmer, Francis Ponge, Rumi, Hafez and the fifteenth-century Indian mystic Kabir. The Winged Energy of Delight: Selected Translations (2004) gathered together twenty two of the poets translated by Bly over his fifty-year career. In the Bloomsbury Review, Ray Gonzalez acknowledged the debt English language poetry owes Robert Bly, writing that Bly "has opened the doors of experience, insight, and language, lifting them toward a universal understanding of what poetry means in the lives of people throughout the world."
Though Bly has perhaps become most identified as the founder of the men's movement, he continues to publish poetry and translations. Imitating his friend William Stafford, Bly wrote a poem every morning, a collection which became Morning Poems (1998). The collection garnered much critical praise. Reviewing the book for the Times Literary Supplement, Ian Tromp maintained that "This book offers much that is touching and wise, and these poems seem a culmination of a journey away from the cant of so many of Bly's earlier poems, a journey towards humility, simplicity and ease, culminating here in verse of unusual grace and humanity. The Morning Poems are the best Robert Bly has written." His new and selected poems Eating the Honey of Words (1999) was also widely praised. Recent collections include The Urge to Travel Long Distances (2005) and the collection of ghazals My Sentence was a Thousand Years of Joy (2005)
Michiko Kakutani observed in the New York Times, "What has remained constant in his work . . . is Mr. Bly's interest in man's relationship with nature, and his commitment to an idiom built upon simplified diction and the free associative processes of the unconscious mind." Peter Stitt of the New York Times Book Review also emphasized the importance of free association in Bly's poetry. "Bly's method," Stitt wrote, "is free association; the imagination is allowed to discover whatever images it deems appropriate to the poem, no matter the logical, literal demands of consciousness." M. L. Rosenberg, writing in Tribune Books, noted in Bly's work a blending of European and South American influences with a decidedly American sensibility: "Bly is a genius of the elevated 'high' style, in the European tradition of Rilke and Yeats, the lush magical realism of the South Americans like Lorca and Neruda. Yet Bly's work is truly American, taking its atmosphere of wide empty space from the Midwest, and its unabashed straightforward emotionalism and spiritualism."

Poet Categorization
b. 1926
If you disagree with this poet's categorization, make a suggestion.
Since the 1960s, Robert Bly has written poetry that is nonacademic, based in the natural world, the visionary, and the realm of the irrational. As a poet, editor and translator, Bly has profoundly affected American verse, introducing many unknown European and South American poets to new readers. In addition to his poetic endeavors, he has gained attention for his theories on the roots of social problems, and his efforts to help men reclaim their masculinity and channel it in a positive direction. Bly's poetry is often categorized as part of the deep image school of writing, in which the poet employs a system of private imagery; however, Bly's wish is not to create a personal mythology, but rather to describe modern American life through powerful metaphors and intense imagery. Two of his major inspirations in this regard have been Spanish-language writers César Vallejo and Federico Garcia Lorca. Hugh Kenner, writing...

Band Rocks Out With Holographic Heads
The band Neurosonics brings more than their instruments to a venue — they bring a bunch of floating blue heads that I assume are witchcraft.
I don't know the technology behind it or if it is even real, but it's definitely interesting to watch.
I'm waiting for metal bands to break this out and drop the cheesy sound effects. Who wouldn't want to watch some badass floating heads belt out a black metal.

Britain's Prince Harry was informed the Duchess of Cambridge was pregnant via email.
Prince William's younger brother received an electronic brief about the exciting development for the royal family - which means Harry will no longer be third in line to the throne - after he proved unreachable by phone yesterday (03.12.12) while stationed on military duty in Afghanistan.
William's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, and his father Prince Charles were only informed via hurried telephone calls when Catherine - formerly known as Kate Middleton before her marriage - was rushed to hospital yesterday with acute morning sickness, according to the BBC's royal correspondent.
Meanwhile, bookmakers have begun offering odds on potential names for the royal baby and are predicting a classic name in keeping with royal tradition, and William and Harry's late mother Diana's name is also proving a popular suggestion.
Betting agency William Hill's early favourites are Frances and John at 9/1, with Charles, George and Victoria 10/1, then Anne, Diana, Philip, Richard and Spencer at 12/1 and finally Henry, Mary and Sarah at 14/1.
Feilim Mac An Iomaire, a spokesperson for Irish bookmakers Paddy Power, said: "We're pretty confident they're going to stay with a traditional name from within the family. We think that given, let's face it, they're not Lady Gaga but neither are they the generation of royals that went before them, they might not go too far off the wall."
Odds are also being offered on the baby's sex, time of birth, weight and hair colour.

The end is nigh for Highbury.
The West Brom game at the weekend was the last Saturday 3 o'clock fixture for the famous old stadium and, on Wednesday, it will host its final European tie.
Anderlecht, Dinamo Bacau, Juventus, Magdeburg, Spartak Moscow, Real Madrid, Red Star Belgrade, Benfica, Winterslag, Torino, Paris St German, Lazio, Inter, Roma and Lokomotiv Leipzig are just some of the names to conjure with when harking back to our Continental conquests at Highbury. Some of the teams, and indeed the competition they played in, do not exist anymore.
But, on Wednesday, Arsène Wenger is looking to concluded 43 years of history on a high.
"Now it is getting close to the end," he said. "Every time I walk in there I feel that there are not many more matches to come.
"I feel part of my soul is in this stadium because many of the biggest moments of my sports career have been there. It will be something special because this stadium has a special soul and to lose it one day will be sad.
"I feel it will help us [on Wednesday] because it is a special occasion. We want to be proud of that and we want this game to be remembered as the last European night for the Club at Highbury."
* For the record, the first European tie at Highbury was against Danish side Staevnet on October 22, 1963 in front of 13,569 in the Inter-city Fairs Cup. Goals from Alan Skirton and John Barnwell could not prevent a 3-2 defeat but a 7-1 victory in the first leg meant it did not matter.
18/1 - Henry to score first and Arsenal to win 2-0 - plus win a trip to Villarreal

How will you charge?
How MUCH should you charge?
There is no one rate that all babysitters should charge. Your area probably has a "going rate" for babysitting, which depends on a number of things, including:
You can find out your neighborhood's going rate by asking around or checking out other babysitters' ads. Depending on where you live, it could be $5.00 an hour or $15.00 an hour, or anywhere in between. It's not a good idea to charge a lot more or a lot less than what everyone else is getting-you'll be most successful if you ask for about the same.
Of course, if you think you're extra-qualified and super-experienced, or if parents just seem to prefer you over other babysitters, you can ask for more than what others get. But don't ask for so much that parents don't want to hire you. It may also be a good idea to prove you're capable and trustworthy before you ask for a little raise.
How you get paid
Make sure you let the parents know how you would like to be paid. Most people prefer cash, due at the end of the babysitting session. But you might also want to accept personal checks or run a tab that your client can pay off at the end of the month.
Advertising and promotion
If you want to be successful as a babysitter, you have to let people know about your business! Here are some good ways to promote your services:

"These unfortunate people have been punished because they have been promised a guaranteed minimum retirement fund. NPI casually states that, as the value of this guarantee is now higher than the underlying assets in their funds, they don't qualify for bonuses," the Sunday Telegraph said.
"This contradicts the House of Lords ruling on the Equitable Life case, which said that policyholders with guarantees should be paid the same bonus rates as those without," the paper said.
According to Mr Cazalet, the latest decline in the markets "puts a lot of pressure on final salary pension schemes and life insurers, who then sell equities. It's an unpleasant spiral in the marketplace." Britain's FTSE 100 index sank to a seven-year low last week and the slump has also put pressure on corporate pension schemes.
The Sunday Telegraph cited a study by actuarial firm Hewitt Bacon & Woodrow that said 90 of Britain's top 100 firms are facing a deficit in their pension plans.
The Financial Mail on Sunday also cited a study by consulting firm Watson Wyatt that said corporate pension funds faced a Ł150 billion deficit.
However, the Association of British Insurers said it believed insurers could handle the slump, and added that insurers were tightly regulated anyway by the Financial Services Authority watchdog. "Insurers are well-placed to operate within their solvency margins," said a spokesman for the ABI.

Hollywood private eye convicted in wiretap
By Jill Serjeant
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Anthony Pellicano, known as Hollywood's private eye to the stars, was convicted on Thursday of running a vast criminal enterprise involving wiretapping and bribery to fix the problems of his wealthy clients.
After a two month trial that exposed the seamy side of the movie industry and featured a celebrity-heavy witness list, a Los Angeles federal jury convicted Pellicano on all but one of the 77 charges against him.
His four co-defendants, including a former police officer, a telephone company official and a computer expert who designed the sophisticated "Telesleuth" wiretapping device, were found guilty on most of the dozens of charges they faced.
Pellicano, 64, who pleaded not guilty and conducted his own rambling defense dressed in prison clothes, is expected to spend the rest of his life behind bars when he is sentenced in September. He has already served time for weapons and explosives possession.
The veteran private investigator, who once worked for lawyers representing Tom Cruise, Elizabeth Taylor and Michael Jackson, presented himself as the ultimate problem solver.
He was charged with racketeering -- under U.S. laws originally used against the Mafia -- and with wiretapping and unlawfully obtaining information about troublesome foes.
Movie stars Chris Rock and Garry Shandling, and Paramount Pictures chief executive Brad Grey and former Walt Disney Co president Michael Ovitz were among a string of witnesses who testified they hired Pellicano, or were spied on by him, during disputes ranging from cheating spouses and paternity lawsuits to show business contracts.
The prospect of the trial had kept Hollywood abuzz for years but all of those testifying said they were unaware of any illegal activities by Pellicano, and none was charged. Continued...

Hot Plate
Ruin This Cheese, Please: The French may frown at the terribly American habit of baking their beloved Brie cheese, but gauche and gooey as it may be, we love it. A particularly appealing baked Brie appetizer ($7.95) can be found at the River Cafe [3615 Montrose, (713)529-0088], here rendered as a pale gold, buttery-soft mass shingled with crisp, paper-thin slices of toasted almond. Even better is the dark, richly seasoned apple chutney served alongside, spunky with balsamic vinegar and prickly sprigs of rosemary. Never mind those Parisian purists; baked Brie and crunchy, spicy apples are the perfect pairing for a cold winter's evening.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 25/6/2014 (1099 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A day that John Quenneville has long dreamed of is rapidly approaching.
He's just not sure which day it will be yet.
The 18-year-old Brandon Wheat Kings forward is expected to be picked in the early rounds of this weekend's National Hockey League entry draft, which begins with the first round on Friday and the final six on Saturday.
Ranked 23rd among North American skaters by NHL Central Scouting, Quenneville is projected by a number of experts to go in the top half of the second round, although some believe he could go in the first round, including Sportsnet pundits Gare Joyce and Jeff Marek, who have him ranked 27th. Bob McKenzie of TSN pegs him at No.32, while Ryan Kennedy of The Hockey News has Quenneville at No.41.
Whether he's picked on Friday or Saturday, the 6-foot-1, 186-pound centre is just anxious to hear his name called.
"I'm extremely excited," said Quenneville, who will attend the draft in Philadelphia. "I know how excited my family is. I've been waiting for this day my whole life. I've been dreaming about it for a very long time."
Quenneville and his family know just how exciting the draft can be. After all, his older brother and Wheat Kings teammate, Peter, was chosen by the Columbus Blue Jackets in the seventh round last year. Having seen his brother go through the process — twice — Quenneville feels much more prepared for what he's facing this week.
"Pete had a year where he didn't even get drafted and another one where he ended up getting drafted," Quenneville said. "We weren't there at the draft for his but we did watch it all on TV. It was kind of a nail-biting experience. You just want to have it happen so badly, and just having him around means a lot to me."
Quenneville has earned good marks from scouts for his hockey IQ and his all-around game. He had 25 goals and 58 points in 61 Western Hockey League games for the Wheat Kings last season and even dropped the gloves five times on his way to 71 penalty minutes.
"He has the pro makeup and is a hard-worker," David Gregory of Central Scouting said on Quenneville's NHL.com draft profile. "He makes good plays very quickly and is good at moving the puck. I'd like to see more consistency from him, but I like the way he finds open spaces and his ability to make any kind of pass."
Quenneville's second WHL season was a major step up from his rookie campaign, when he had only 19 points. The Edmonton native continued the progress in the playoffs, leading the team with five goals and 13 points in nine games, and was chosen to play for Canada's bronze-medal-winning team in the world under-18 championship.
When the season started, linemate Jayce Hawryluk — ranked 37th by Central Scouting — was Brandon's top prospect for the draft, but Quenneville's breakout coincided with an improvement in his stock, which steadily rose throughout the season. Quenneville hopes that upward trend will convince teams his ceiling is still much higher.
"I think I got better this year as the year went on, first half to second half and in the playoffs, and I think I played some pretty good hockey at the U18s as well," he said. "I think it means a lot to the scouts to see that you're improving and moving your game along as the season progresses, so I think it will help me a lot."

Electronic proof of auto insurance coming to Indiana
Indiana drivers will be able to prove they have auto insurance with the click of a smartphone starting July 1 under a new law that signals a shift toward the use of technology in insurance laws.
Indiana is one of 24 states that will allow electronic proof of coverage. Motorists will be able to show a digital image of their insurance card by accessing it through an app provided by their insurer.
Vigo County Chief Deputy Clark Cottom tells the Tribune-Star the change will benefit drivers and police officers. He notes that much of officers' work is already done with the help of technology and says adding in proof of insurance is a natural fit.
Cottom says officers attend training twice a year to discuss statute changes.

My 22 month old still nurses frequently, day and night, which I'm mostly enjoying. A few months ago, however, he started sticking his free hand down my shirt, especially when he's nursing to sleep. At first I thought it was really sweet and cuddly, and my son kept his hand right in the middle, so it was totally comfortable. But little by little, his hand began wiggling more, and traveling over to my free breast, which he now demands on holding and squeezing while he nurses. And he's also really fond of pinching my nipple, which drives me crazy! It's this terrible tickle sensation that's really uncomfortable and distracting for me. But it becomes such a power struggle when I say no that I often just let my son keep his hand there--especially when I'm trying to get him to fall asleep quickly.
Anyone else experience this? I guess the broader issue is setting boundaries around your body when it comes to your little one. My son really seems to have no concept that my body is not his, which I guess is pretty normal developmentally. But sometimes I get so uncomfortable that I'm ready to wean him and have my body back!
Only commisseration from me, my dd does the exact same thing! It can be so frustrating, I know.. but I am hoping others have some good ideas and/or thoughts on the subject :)
I'm right there with you both. Hoping someone with some btdt experience will chime in with some advice!

Mine is only 6 months, so we're at very different stages developmentally, but when the nursing necklace is failing, I stick mittens on her.
And on 09/23/2011, we were three; husband, daughter, and me!
Hi, I noticed you did not get any answers just more questions , so as a mother of 5 I wanted to chime in. With 3 of my children I breastfed over one year of age. As I happened by your post (completely by chance) I saw your question, thought it funny and so took a peek --- I was nursing at the time and my 14 month old daughter was grabbing and pinching away! I am not a doctor but as a mother of 16 years with 3 children under 5 years old I have a bit of experience with this. I think by the age they can choose to grab at your nipples they are pretty much expert breast feeders. Often when you pump milk you will be told to use nipple stimulation to increase ilk yield. My best guess is somewhere along the way babies figure this out too! When my youngest son did it I was like, WHAT! It sort of freaked me out and made me uncomfortable. On his second birthday the breast made its exit cold turkey! About 6 months later I gave birth to my oldest daughter and around 1 years old she got grabby too! I was less surprised that time and thought to myself..."do they all do this?". Now with my 14 month old she has gotten grabby as well, I have come to accept it as normal for older babies -but it is still weird AND it can hurt! I think this is one of the things that women should talk more about, it is amazing we all have breasts but no one knows about common things when it comes to nursing! What I do is just grab her hand gently and kiss it a bit. I also talk to and kiss her while I nurse, making eye contact and the like. I try to relax so she does not have to pinch away to get milk. Sometimes I make the other breast nipple hard to get to by placing my hand over it or the like. Depending on her mood she may get frustrated or give just up! No way to tell, you know how babies are. Just relax because your milk does not flow well if you are tense. Remember, you baby does not know your breasts are for anything but comfort and food. They love and need us so much. It may be strange but it is normal. I think the biggest barrier is getting over how we view our own breasts and nipples and separating it from how our little ones view our bodies! On a last note I found that (not all the time but sometimes) she gets grabby for a sec and then switches breast. IT is like she is deciding if the milk will be more plentiful on the other side or something --- oh if only they could communicate what is in those sweet heads - right?! Babies are a blessing, it is great you are breastfeeding - it can be challenging at times but it is also really rewarding and special. Do not let this discourage you. I am going to post this response on the other two posts just to be sure they get an answer as well. I was disturbed you only got 2 responses and they were both questions like yours! Glad I happened by. I signed up for this site just to address this issue! God Bless!
OP - I could have written your post word for word!
2trulyfindpeace - thanks for your input and experience! I have often wondered if DS is trying to get the milk to flow more. I do think about the fact that he only views my breasts as food and comfort. The "twiddling" is really painful for me so I've started telling him that I will tickle his hand and a lot of times he'll let me but not always. I feel like he's old enough to start understanding that this doesn't feel good to mommy but it's hard to know when they are ready for that.
4 years and 5 IVF cycles in the making, Elliott was born at home in water on 2/2/11.
I could not stand the nipple twiddling! I'd press his hand down flat and say "no! hold still!" -- and if he did not stop, move his hand away. After a few times he got it. I really think it's important that we're allowed to take care of ourselves too and stop something if it's making u miserable.

It is but important for us to take good care of our bodies, and by that we don't only mean eating well and hitting the gym thrice a week. If the insides are not cared for and if the mental caliber of a human is not in place, the body wouldn't be able to function properly. If the body refuses to function and respond to daily tasks, all will go for a toss. This would also be a sign for much more dangers ahead. This is why it is important to take time out and give our bodies the much needed pampering and care, and you too can do that by indulging in one of the SPA Deals in Gurgaon.
Respect your needs
A spa doesn't mean that you have to rip your wallets apart for lovely and awesome holistic services. In this day and age, everyone needs a little more than what is being given, and spas do just that. They step in to help you with cosmetic and physiological needs, so that the body, mind and soul can be in sync with each other. When the three are in sync, you would be healthy, inside out and it would show. So do check today on the varied SPA Deals In Gurgaon, and be a darling to yourself by booking into one.

Hence, please do check and see which of the Day SPA Packages in Gurgaon would be best suited for your needs.
Tips on searching for a spa
When you make a decision to relax at a day spa or a weekend spa, here is what you should do:
a. Check with the reviews, ratings and client testimonials online, it would tell you a lot about the spas reputation, customer centricity, pricing and services.
b. Ask the spa to email or send over a brochure for your needs, check what you want and don't want and then make a decision
c. The spa should have a smart website, one which would allow you to contact them, make bookings and allows for varied secure modes of early payments too
d. Spas should have discrete and confidential systems in place, assuring customers of client confidentiality at all times, especially with the payment instruments used, such as a cheque or a credit card
e. Also check for the proximity of the spa from your place. You should be there in no time, and should tire out on the way back home from the spa too.
We hope this information on Day SPA Packages In Gurgaon and how to choose them comes in handy!!

A stablemate of the LeapPad 2 Explorer we reviewed back in December, the Leapster GS Explorer is to the handheld games console what that device was to the tablet: a cut-price, cut-down alternative aimed squarely at tech-loving kids. Though no competition for the Nintendo 3DS or Sony PS Vita, the Leapster GS Explorer is certainly very affordable. It can be found at half the price of the LeapPad 2 while sharing many of the same features. With its robust build, child friendly interface and library of educational apps it's a tempting proposition for parents, giving the kids something to do on the move without the terrors of them manhandling your precious iPhone or Galaxy SIII.
The design of the GS Explorer has clearly been based on a handheld games system, with a large digital D-Pad on the left hand side, two face buttons on the right and a 3.5in screen sitting in-between. With its left and right shoulder buttons it's actually close in layout, looks and feel to the original Nintendo GameBoy Advance of 2001. At 898g it's heavier than any current handheld console, but also chunkier and more robust. Its thick plastics have clearly been designed to take a battering, and if you've seen kids wreck their way through a succession of Nintendo DS handhelds, you'll appreciate why this is a good thing.
Of course, the GS Explorer has also been built to a budget. The 320 x 240 pixel QVGA screen isn't a million miles away from the 320 x 240 and 400 x 240 per eye displays of the 3DS, but it's a long way behind the screens we're seeing on even budget smartphones. Still, if it's a little dull and colours could be punchier, it works reasonably well for the breezy, cartoon material it's presenting. This isn't a device for viewing fine text, browsing photos, playing 3D games or watching movies - it's a device for running children's apps and playing simple 2D games.
It pays to take the same approach to the sound. There's a mono speaker at the top of the GS Explorer, which puts out a rather brash sound, but what it lacks in subtlety it makes up for in power - chiefly the power to really annoy long-suffering parents on a two-hour drive. Familarise yourself with the volume controls, hidden next to a useful headphone socket on the base of the unit; you might just need them both.
Beyond the screen and speaker, the GS Explorer is a more sophisticated device than you might expect. At the rear it has a 2 megapixel camera, while there's a microphone built into the top of the unit. Tilt controls have also been included for the benefit of those games and apps that support them, and the screen is also a touchscreen, albeit a resistive one. A stylus is concealed within the body, but thoughtfully attached so that it won't get lost within the first week of use.
The 2 megapixel camera is used with the pre-installed Camera and Video Recorder app, either to shoot stills or shoot video. Stills are pretty woeful in all but ideal lighting, with fuzzy detail and plenty of noise, while video is captured at 14fps with a VGA resolution and similar issues. On the one hand, this is disappointing, but on the other hand smaller children don't seem to mind. They're less fussed about the risible quality, and more excited about the way the app lets them doodle on their photos or stretch out their features to make weird-looking faces. And what can you expect at this kind of price?

Remembering Veteran Queens Educator Mitchell Wiener
New York, NY —
He was the heart and soul of Intermediate School 238. That's how mourners described Mitchell Wiener, the assistant principal who died on Sunday and became the city's first fatality in connection to swine flu. Wiener's wife and three sons spoke at his service, which was attended by hundreds of mourners in Queens. WNYC's Beth Fertig has more on the lives he touched.
REPORTER: Eighth graders Tyra Stanley and Natalie Black came with their friends to pay their last respects. They said Wiener was the kind of teacher kids loved. A big, generous guy famous for his sense of humor.
GIRLS: Oh gosh!
BLACK: Mr. Wiener he would come on the loudspeaker with like random stuff, oh it's so and so's birthday and he would play a song like they had or some kind of memory.
STANLEY: I remember one time he pretended to be American Idol judges and we had to sing a song. And he pretended to be Randy Jackson and he was so funny.
BLACK: He was like 'yeah Dog!' I remember once he pretended to have an alien invasion in the school, he was like 'shhhhhhacccch.' (laughs)
REPORTER: But Wiener was also the rare kind of adult kids could talk to. Seventh grader Jeffery Grey said Wiener helped him get a tutor when he was doing poorly in social studies and English.
GREY: Whenever I needed help in class he would have somebody to come help me. Or if I ever got in trouble he would do whatever he had to do to get me out of trouble.
REPORTER: Teachers say that was Wiener's gift: that he cared about students, and they knew it. He worked in the school for about 30 years, starting off as a math teacher and later becoming assistant principal. In a building with 1,500 sixth through eighth graders, science teacher Lisa Harrison and retired teacher Irv Zaroff say he commanded respect.
HARRISON: Well, I've heard the students say that he would keep them in line. He wanted everybody to be in the classroom. No one in the hallways. Everyone was supposed to be in school for the reason they were supposed to be there. And he would help them with their family problems.
ZAROFF: He was good to everybody. He was not like a typical principal. He was a real person and there's nobody like him in the world.
REPORTER: Teachers say they wish the school had been shut down sooner, when the first batches of students came down with flu-like symptoms, instead of almost a week later on May 14th. Harrison says there's one way to commemorate him.
HARRISON: We've lost a family member, Mr. Wiener. And I wish they would name the school the Mitchell Wiener Intermediate School.
REPORTER: I-S 238 will reopen for students on Tuesday. For WNYC I'm Beth Fertig.

Hello everyone.
I am a stay at home Dad of two boys (2.5 yrs & ~ 6 weeks). The oldest boy and I do a lot of SW stuff, play legos; pretend light sabre battles; read SW books; watch SW...you get the idea. My oldest son's best friend is quite tall for a 2 year old, so when his Dad said "Hey! They could go as Chewie and Han for Halloween this year! (2014)" So started my quest to find props and "how - to's" on the net and I am choosing Boba Fett, well let's be honest...he's awesome! As I got over whelmed with all the stuff on the net. I stumbled across TDH when I was trying to figure out how to make the helmet. I thought ok this can't be that hard... I found the 2010 toy helmet for 20 bucks and that will do for now. But I needed the blaster so back I came to TDH and here I am. I would like to eventually have a full costume but 2 growing boys and reno'ing a house; I do not have lots of time. Hopefully I can get the blasted done by halloween...wish me luck
wI'm glad I found this place...now down the sarlacc pit we go!
