What binds car enthusiasts to one another? A love for cars, certainly, but we'd argue there's a deeper psychological connection. Namely that we've never quite grown up, and don't really care to. We're all still the little boys we once were, hanging posters of our favorite supercars on the walls of our childhood bedrooms. The only way to convince us of the reality of our own age is to show us how old the then-new supercars we pined for as kids have now become. So it's with a big lump in our colle

Battle of the Auto__s: Jaguar supercar rumors refuted
A couple of weeks back we reported on an ongoing debate between British automotive sites Autocar and AutoExpress over the emergence of a new Jaguar sportscar. While the former reported that Jaguar was to supplement the existing XK line with a smaller variant, likely named XE, the latter issued claims that the new model would be positioned above the XK with an engine placed behind. A third source, AutoWeek, has now thrown its hat into the ring, refuting AutoExpress' supercar reports and running i

Will Jaguar's XJ220 supercar finally have a successor? Although Jaguar denies it, Auto Express thinks so, and we hope they're right. While rumors have suggested the return of the F-type as Tata's next project, Auto Express expects Jaguar to show an all-new mid-engine supercar concept within the next year. And they even have some rather artful renderings to back up their claims.

When I can't sleep, I go to my laptop and log onto Facebook to see who else is insane enough to be up at 2:30 in the morning. That's when I found an item posted by my friend Samantha Kaplan about a child's science project gone haywire.
In the video, a girl named Elise is attempting to grow vines from potatoes to answer the question, how long does it take for a sweet potato to grow vines? What she discovers is that a nasty chemical Called Chlorpropham or "Bud Nip" will take her initial experiment in a very different direction and give us all a lesson in the importance of organic food.
If you have any doubts about the importance of eating organic, then watch Elise's short video, comparing an organic sweet potato and a conventionally grown sweet potato's ability to sprout vines.
Take a look for yourself and see why the proof is in the "potato."
So which fruits and veggies are the most important to buy organic? Any fruit or vegetable that is porous like lettuce, apples and berries while vegetables with protective skins such as avocados, oranges and bananas are less susceptible to contamination.
Try the diet.com organic food jingle to remember which 13 fruits and veggies one should buy organic when on a tight budget:

Since moving to an organic diet, I have more energy, require less sleep and have less digestive issues, so safe guard your health and eat as much organic food as your budget allows.

Last Week's News: On Birth Control, Abortion, and Sluts…Body Control
*rolls shoulders*
For the past month or so I've noted the steady onslaught against what I may choose to do with my body, against organizations that are meant to provide services to poor people who can't afford but need them, against people who dare to suggest that women should receive certain products and services. A cathartic but still coherent rant is long overdue.
It began with The Susan G. Komen Foundation withdrawing funding support from Planned Parenthood. Never mind that the funds were used by Planned Parenthood to ensure that women who could not afford it were able to get breast health services (mammograms and the like). Outrage grew steadily as did the dot connection. Soon Planned Parenthood got the monetary support it needed to help those who needed it; people stepped up. I don't think the folks over at Susan G saw it coming, though how they were so oblivious is beyond me. Daft. Soon folks realized that Susan G. was run by some pretty staunch pro-life people, which is, of course, fine. But keep your damned political paws off the movement and efforts meant to help people with cancer and to help prevent it. Further, who the hell are you to tell me what I may or may not do with my body?
Susan G. withdrew funding ostensibly because Planned Parenthood was under investigation by Congress. Susan G. had a new policy meant to "block grants to organizations currently under investigation by any local, state, or federal authorities." OK fine. Except the policy was so new and shiny and seemed to only apply to Planned Parenthood. And never mind that the investigation that led to the application of the policy against Planned Parenthood was yet another inquiry led by conservative-leaning representatives into how Planned Parenthood uses its funding. Law forbids Planned Parenthood from using federal funds for abortion services. Fine (well, no, not really but laux that's a whole other issue) so every so often it seems that someone in Congress who needs to bang the social conservative drum investigates Planned Parenthood. Yeah so the organization with a HUGE target on its back would be so fucking dumb as to violate a hot topic law to which it is subject. Uh-hmm. O, and never mind that most of the services that Planned Parenthood provides are not abortion-related. Three damn percent. That's how much of Planned Parenthood's total services is abortion-related. Never mind that Planned Parenthood is a significant resource for men and woman who can't afford a regular doctor's visit because it's so damned expensive. I have good insurance and sometimes I cringe at the cost of routine, preventative care and tests. Ugh. My lessons from the Komen-Planned Parenthood battle: Look closely into the charities to which you donate. Just as anti-abortion folks scrutinize everything, so should everyone else. Also, spend the time volunteering in your community; give local charities the direct benefit of your resources and you get the benefit of seeing how things are run before you give your money.
More recently we have the candidates for the GOP nomination for U.S. President again beating the social conservative drum with women's bodies. Santorum especially seems convinced that women should have access to nothing but a man's penis and the children that result from that access. Newt wants a colony on the moon and Romney is trying not to be so overt with this wealth. Paul…goodness what the hell does Ron Paul want? I have tried to give at least two of Unfortunate Quartet a chance but they make it so damned hard. I have not heard one coherent sentence from either of these men about how they will do a better job than President Obama is doing on the issues that matter. Not one. Sway me, nuh? Sway me. Jus' try. So while we have folks banging the war drums, homeowners struggling to hold on to their investments, and too many people underemployed and unemployed we have these loons scrutinizing what I and other women do with and put into our bodies. Unless that something is a penis of course then it's fine. Families in this country are struggling so hard to hold things together and this is what these people focus on? Homelessness is rife and among them are too many veterans who were sent off to fight unjust wars and you're focused on whether I use birth control or may choose to have an abortion? More people than ever are going hungry, children are going hungry and this is your focus? Really? And I can't even lay blame on the media for this one because they are actually reporting what this Unfortunate Quartet is saying. They have no plan to either cut this government's spending or to prepare us for an increase in taxes, or both. Unless it's to deregulate on rapid…and then cry for shame when something bad happens. Ha. O and another war with a country led by a batshit crazy man who looks like he could do something worse than horrible is OK? Uh-huh. How can the U.S. honestly try to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon (if that is, in fact, what they're trying to do because damn I remember that silo photograph and Colin Powell before the UN all too well) and work for peace between Israel and Palestine while Israel is not condemned for having nuclear weapons and being o-so-willing to use them? How can the U.S. be an honest broker? These are the issues we are really facing and these people are talking about contraception? Sure, bring it on. Listen to me: I'm tired of this nonsense. I'm naturally not a partisan person; I'm not aligned with any party or registered with one but Jesus, Mary, and Joseph these people are doing their damned best to push me toward the liberal netherworld.
I find it beyond ironic and immeasurably despicable that these same people – conservatives, social conservatives, whatever the popular label of the day is – who champion individual liberty, free markets, and laissez faire government are the same who think that they have any fucking right to take charge of MY body and for them to decide that the government should dictate what I do with MY body. O. So consumed are they that they would bar women from hearings about medication that women are meant to use.
Tangent: That hearing was on a situation where the Catholic Church is trying to justify not providing birth control to female employees by hiding behind religion. While they run public hospitals that get all sorts of government benefits as a non-profit…while the regulation provides an exemption for institutions meant, among other things, to serve people who share the same religious tenets and for which "inculcation of religious values" is a purpose. O, ok. Spare me the religious freedom argument; it has no merit here.
Back on track: Why don't they focus on corporations that dump toxic waste away, that abuse the public trust, or that use "credit default swaps" to swindle people? But Lawdamercy a woman decides or even has the right to choose what she'd like to do or NOT do with her body and y'all have a body come down Holy Ghost come to Jesus moment. What is it about a woman's ability to exercise power and control over her body that scares them? If y'all had your way I'm pretty sure I'll need a permission slip to pee soon, worse when I'm doing so on government time since y'all won't want to pay for that.
And then there's Rush Limbaugh. That man… *deep breath*…and he has such a following and such clout that none of the Unfortunate Quartet has come out and explicitly said, "No, calling a woman who advocates for birth control coverage in health insurance plans a slut and prostitute and telling her to post videos of herself having sex online is not OK and I don't support either Mr. Limbaugh or his comments." Nope…it's just unfortunate, eh? Ha. I'm taking note, y'all, I'm taking notes and remembering names! By the way free speech isn't the issue here at all it's about the way that you have degenerated into ad hominem attacks against a private citizen exercising her right to speak and demand appropriate representation from her Congress. How does the government requiring insurers and employers to not discriminate against women by providing them with coverage for the medical care and products that they need mean that a woman is being a slut or prostitute? Enlighten me. I'm glad that sponsors are deserting your radio show and I hope that they stay away. For too long you have gotten away with spewing this vitriol against other people (mostly minorities) so I guess this is your comeuppance.
Does this man (and others) even know that the birth control pill has uses far above and beyond preventing pregnancy? Listen, I laid in my bed in college every muscle clenched in pain because of cramps. I blacked out. I was afraid to go to the bathroom for fear that by standing up my uterus would fall out. Throughout high school until then I simply accepted that I was doomed to be in extreme pain for a couple days a month; it's part of being a girl. Even worse is that I was too ignorant and ashamed to ask a doctor about how I could or should be handling this. But after that time in my single college room I was physically and emotionally exhausted and made an appointment as soon as possible to visit the appropriate person at the health centre. The first month that I started taking the pill things were drastically different. I almost wept with joy with being able to function each day. Like a normal person. I made the choice to take them very carefully and it was my choice to make. So, as Ms. Fluke explained before Congress, other women use the pill to prevent themselves from being far more ill than cramps.
Worse they do this under the guise of religion? And morality? Please to kirout. Jesus already died for my sins; He's the ONLY Savior I need. Your efforts at trying to save me are not needed. You. Have. No. Right. Let me, within the confines of my own relationship with God and in whatever fellowship I have with others, exercise my free will and then lay these (apparent) sins before Him and seek forgiveness. Let me and other women choose. We're capable. Get out of my body's business.
CommentsOne Response to "Last Week's News: On Birth Control, Abortion, and Sluts…Body Control"
Interesting piece.
Lets not forget the fact that thanks to the struggles of several brave women for all walks of life over the years, women today are able to openly discuss their health concerns, have access to affordable birth control medication and also safe abortions.
We, as women, tend to overlook the important role that these women have collectively played in our lives. International Women's Day (IWD) which is celebrated annually on March 8th acknowledges their contribution and achievements. Briefly, IWD started as a Socialist political event and the first IWD was celebrated on March 19, 1911 in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland. IWD became part of the culture of the countries in Eastern Europe, Russia, and the former Soviet bloc. In 1975, during International Women's Year, the United Nations began celebrating 8 March as IWD.
Although the day has lost its political focus in some countries, generally, it has become an occasion to express appreciation for women and also to recognise their contribution to development. The original political, human rights and social awareness of the struggles of women worldwide are still strong and relevant today and as such the themes designated by the United Nations serve to highlight and examine various issues.
For 2012, the UN's theme for IWD was "Empower Women – End Hunger and Poverty". Check the link http://www.un.org/ecosocdev/geninfo/women/womday97.htm for a brief history of IWD.

Hi guys,
So my story is a the following: I like a new girl at work and she likes me back (we confessed to each other), then all the gossip at work torn us apart and she's been avoiding me, even sometimes when she wants something she just texts me. We are in no relationship yet.
We are having a party at one of our colleagues' farm and there will be like 20 of us (the youngsters of the company). How can I take this party as a chance to settle down everything between us? I know the fact that the workplace makes her feel embarrassed about anything between us, but I notice her sometimes looking at me or asking me stuff about work and taking interest in it.
So, how to take advantage of this party please?
NB: there will be booz, I drink, she doesn't and she doesn't hook up, I just want to make our thing during it and I really don't care about her body (btw she's hot) because she's sweet and goofy and funny, which I like the most about her. She's the kind of girl that men notice easily.
How to get her through a party?

Hold on, chewing on pizza... Okay buuuuudy. Hmmmmm.
- liking someone is a mutual feeling, give her time to get use to it. If she is shy or embarrassed about the subject, don't take it serious, rather let you be you and make her feel secure.
- basically this is where you set your price and boundaries. She seem unsure about something which will lead to wasting your time. Rather, however, put your feel down and tell her about your issue, take her to a private place and put your foot down. No matter if she's shy, insecure or embarrassed, she needs to know homie don't play that. Your the man and after the party she'll know where you stand.
- do what I mentioned above earily in the party cause no one wants to leave the party hearing morals. Then cut loose. Your job during the party is to put your fucking foot down and knowing where you stand with her. This girl likes me at work and I like her but if she's doing off side stuff then she like herself cause she's not respecting me. Nevertheless I both cases they need to be told why us makes don't feel right about being texted rather than talked to. This ain't middle school girl. Oh sorry. Just do those 3 things.00|00|0

Sunday Long Reads: What to watch after Making a Murderer, the fuss over 70mm film and Zidane as a manager
Kick back with a cup of coffee and catch up on the best of Newstalk.com from this week.10:30 Sunday 10 January 2016, 10:30 10 Jan 2016
From sport to film and TV, there's plenty to choose from in this week's Long Reads.
Have you finished "Making A Murderer"? Here are seven more true-crime docs to get addicted to
The documentary series has been getting plenty of press in recent weeks since it premiered on Netflix, and even spawned a petition that the White House responded to after it got over 130,000 signatures.
For those out there who sped through the ten-episode documentary and aren't entirely sure what to do with the free-time, here's a list of seven more true-crime documentaries that are as gripping, if not even more so, than Making A Murderer.
Go to the pre-season games! Your inner GAA snob will thank you for it
No one is out of the Championship. No one has been relegated. If your team does lose it doesn't matter as a thousand excuses are readily available to explain a defeat in a competition that doesn't matter anyway. Those are just some of the reasons Oisin Langan loves this time of year.
While the structure is all wrong and requires urgent change, at this time of the year, we can put those thoughts to one side as we're just glad to get out to watch our counties come to life in pre-season as the Christmas tree discolours before being removed, like the unwanted eye sore the once beautiful green ornament has become.
Why is there such a fuss over The Hateful Eight and 70mm film?
Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight was finally released in Irish cinemas this week - well, some of them at least.
An already tumultuous launch for the film - including a very high profile online leak - took a surprising turn after a number of major cinema chains in the UK & Ireland announced they would not be showing the film due to a dispute with the film's distributor.
The dispute, at least in part, revolves around a handful of cinemas in London's West End, where only one theatre has been given the opportunity to screen the film's 70mm version - Tarantino's preferred version.
What do we really know about Zidane's managerial style as he settles into life at Real Madrid?
If you've ever read Barca: The Making of the Greatest Team In The World by Off The Ball's European football correspondent Graham Hunter, it not only gives you insight but also a bit of hindsight.
Many of the ideas that Pep Guardiola brought to Barcelona between 2008 and 2012 were first given room to breathe when he was in charge of the Catalan club's B team, where he was in charge from 2007 until his promotion to the first team.
Similarly, ahead of taking over the main job at one of the biggest clubs in the world, Zinedine Zidane has been in charge of Real Madrid's Castilla side, their 'B' team, so does what he did in his time there say anything about what he will be like as a manager?
When is it out here? The case for international release dates
You may have heard of Spotlight, a film telling the story of the Boston Globe expose on priests who abused children and were protected by the Catholic Church.
If you are into boxing, then Creed will almost certainly be on your radar. Lenny Abrahamson's Room is the hot Irish film from this year and The Revenant is already doing the rounds.
Although you have heard quite a lot about them at this stage, the chances are you may be waiting a significant amount of time to actually catch them on the big screen. Why? Because of staggered international release dates globally.

Read the September issue of AMI online now
New issue delves into the world of theatre sound, examines the recent software upgrades from Steinberg and PreSonus, and much more.
The September 2015 issue of Audio Media International is available to read online now.
In this month's main feature, David Davies examines whether restrictive preservation orders and a fixation on tradition is having an effect on the theatre sound industry, while in our review section we take an in-depth look at the latest addition to the Audio-Technica's wireless range, System 10 PRO, as well as the new versions of Steinberg's Nuendo software and Studio One from PreSonus.
Also in the issue, we catch up with The Man from U.N.C.L.E. re-recording mixer Chris Burdon and go behind the portraits at the new 'Soundscapes' exhibit at London's National Gallery, which is combing fine art and sound in a new and exciting way with some of the world's top sound artists.
Other highlights include a look at bespoke music and sound design specialist Sitting Duck, an overview of the industry climate in the United Arab Emirates, and a look ahead to three not-to-be-missed shows coming up on the pro-audio calendar.

I'm always finding ways to improve myself and keep myself happy. These things aren't always easy - or cheap - but I do what I need to do to prevent myself from turning into a crying disaster. I thought it might be fun for others to read, so without further ado, here's my self-improvement bucket list!
(Now, when I say 'improvement' I do not mean you should be hard on yourself and live on a schedule that is almost impossible to achieve. I mean, routine is important in your daily life and you should probably have some sort of sleep schedule and work out; hell, maybe even try eating better, but it still doesn't mean you should feel tied to a chain until you collapse.)
1: Working out
I always feel better when I'm angry and I go for a run with some music blasting through my headphones. Always. If running isn't your forté, you can always go to the gym, take a dance class or maybe even pick up a fighting class-whatever you like! Exercising is good for you and makes you feel better.
Unless I'm sick or have something super important to do, I don't ever skip a workout sesh. And if you do, it's best not to try and do it a day after, messing up with your schedule.
2: Eating
Food is something we deal with on a daily basis, since we need it to survive. Many people don't realize that food doesn't only mess with your belly, it also messes with your skin, any feelings of nausea, your hair. Even your mood can be affected! You may have noticed pimples appearing more when you have many cheat days, getting ill when you've snacked too much, or your hair being exceptionally greasy after cheat days. Eating healthy is a must if you want to obtain a good lifestyle.
Again, this doesn't mean that you should ALWAYS eat healthy, that's impossible. I try and eat two vegetarian dishes a week, eat unhealthy one or two times a week and have regular meals throughout the rest of the week. If you feel you're craving a certain type of food, see if there's healthy substitutes. Maybe your body is actually craving a certain vitamin etc.
Other than that I find fruit to be a very good replacement for crisps, sweets or chocolate. Not getting more than three snacks a week during grocery shopping will also help you stop snacking so much. If you're lazy like me you won't want to go all the way to the store.
3: Looking good
This is one I find rather important. Not just because I am a visual person, also because nothing makes me more happy than feeling confident because I look good. Being happy in your own skin truly is an uplifting thing. I am currently in the process of updating my closet with things I know I'll wear for quite a while, and nothing makes me more happy than shopping. (Stereotypical, I know.)
Make-up is not to be forgotten, I've finally created a routine that works for me and my skin.
Cleansing my face and body is also important to me, having acne makes me feel unhappy so I try to get rid of it by cleaning my face EVERY day, showering every other day and washing my hair too.
4: Dealing with feelings
Your inside matters as much as your outside, so emotions aren't to be forgotten. Don't be scared to call in sick when you really need a mental health day! This'll help with avoiding collapsing mentally and being sick for a week or longer, or even getting a burn out!
Also make sure to talk out any issues you have. With others or yourself.
5: Your environment
This might be one of the most important. Making sure you live somewhere you actually like living can sometimes be impossible, but you can still do your best to try. Make sure your room or house is at least somewhat clean and organized.
The people surrounding you are also part of your environment, so make sure to fill your life with people you share opinions or hobbies with. If you can't find positive people, be one of them.
I'm sure that there's tons of other stuff that can help with self improvement, but this is what I'm currently trying. Hope you enjoyed reading.

You need water to replace what your body loses through normal everyday functions. Of course, you lose water when you go to the bathroom or sweat, but you even lose small amounts of water when you exhale. You need to replace this lost water to prevent dehydration.
Your body also needs more water when you are:
- In hot climates.
- More physically active.
- Running a fever.
- Having diarrhea or vomiting.

Perth: Steve Waugh is poised to join Allan Border as Australias most successful Test captain if his team can win the third Ashes Test.
Waugh has led Australia to 31 Test wins since replacing Mark Taylor as skipper in 1999 and needs just one more to match Borders record of 32. With three Ashes Tests to go and Australia already 2-0 up, it seems likely Waugh will pass Border during this series and move into outright second on the all-time list behind West Indian Clive Lloyds world record of 36.
Incredibly, Waugh has achieved his 31 from just 42 matches while Border, who took over at a time when Australia were struggling, needed 93 matches for his 32. Even Lloyd, also at the helm of a great team, needed 74 games.
Waughs winning strike rate of 73.81 per cent is easily the highest by any captain who has been in charge for at least 20 Tests with the late Don Bradmans success rate of 62.50 the second best.
Despite all his success, Waugh said he still hadnt grown tired of winning and never took victory for granted. When you lose one like we did a couple of times in India you realise its a special thing to win a Test match and you shouldnt take it for granted, Waugh said.
It doesnt come just by chance. We work hard, I think were the fittest side going round, I think were the most disciplined and I think we train the best. It doesnt happen overnight by accident and if we slacken off in any of those facets of our game then well fall back to the field pretty quickly.
Waughs current team is also already being compared to the greatest the game has seen with Keith Miller, a member of Bradmans 1948 Invincibles, recently declaring them as the finest of all time.
There are no obvious weaknesses in Waughs team and the side includes a handful of players who will be remembered among the greats of the game including Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath, Adam Gilchrist and, of course, Waugh himself.
Importantly, under Waugh they have scored their runs quickly to take the weather out of the equation, always bowl and field aggressively and are prepared to take risks.
Waugh, now 37 and in the twilight of his career, was a late starter as captain but said he was now comfortable in the job. When you first take over the captaincy youre keen to please everyone else and you forget about what you really want so youve got to put your own stamp on how you want to play their game and influence the side in that direction, Waugh said.
I think Ive learnt a lot and Im pretty relaxed about it now. There was a period when we had to really work hard to form a side to what it is now but now its almost on automatic pilot.
It takes a bit of refining, a word here and there, but basically weve done the ground work and now it tends to be quite a bit easier than say a couple of years ago.
Weve been together for such a long time now and were so consistent in the selection that everyone knows each other really well and they know how I operate in the field and little signals that I make they pick up pretty quickly.

The Fountain Theatre follows its multiple award-winning 2012 production of Tarell Alvin McCraney's In The Red And Brown Water with the Los Angeles Premiere of the 33-year-old playwright's The Brothers Size, and while the production is as beautifully acted as they get, I am a good deal less enamored with the second in McCraney's Brother/Sister Plays trilogy than I was with the first.
In The Red And Brown Water, as Fountain Theatre regulars will recall, told the tale of high school track star Oya and her dream to escape the projects of San Pere, Louisiana for the proverbial "better life." Figuring prominently in Oya's story was a young man named Ogun, sweet, sincere, and utterly lovestruck with our heroine, and sly, sassy teenaged Elegba, whose sexy six-foot frame belied his nickname "L'il Elegba" (and who appeared to have as much of an eye for the menfolk as for the ladies).
Only Ogun and Elegba are back for The Brothers Size from among In The Red And Brown Water's large and varied cast of characters, the pair of them quite a few years older and wiser for their life experiences.
Ogun Size (Gilbert Glenn Brown this time round) now runs a local auto repair shop while younger brother Oshoosi (Matthew Hancock), recently released from "the pen," lazes around the house despite repeated claims to be searching for work.
Unable to tolerate Oshoosi's lethargy any longer, Ogun puts his younger brother to work (it's either that or get out), thereby establishing a certain détente between them—that is until who should show up at their doorstep but Oshoosi's prison cellmate, none other than Elegba himself (Theo Perkins reprising the role he played two years back), whose "eye for the menfolk" may have found expression in his and Oshoosi's prison cell-for-two.
In The Red And Brown Water benefited considerably from the eclectic bunch of locals that populated Oya's life—her foxy but sadly short-lived Mama Mojo, man-hunting Louisiana MILF Aunt Elegua, local flirts and gossips Nia and Shun, white shopkeeper O Li Run, and local DJ "The Egungun"—along with so much song and dance that the production seemed at times almost as much a musical as The Color Purple.
By contrast, not all that much "happens" in The Brothers Size, which places considerably more emphasis on McCraney's dialog, alternately described by devotees as "lyrical" or "poetic," adjectives which immediately set off a warning alarm in this reviewer's head. Indeed, my review of In The Red And Brown Water included the caveat that "Playwright McCraney's blend of poetic speech and street talk didn't always work for this reviewer, nor did the integration of stage directions into dialog," though I ended up dismissing these objections as "quibbles" in a production that, as I put it, "any true lover of original, inventive, risk-taking theater will not want to miss."
Without In The Red And Brown Water's multiple plusses, I find it harder to dismiss those objections this time round, especially when McCraney's characters launch into lengthy flashback monologs à la Greek Tragedy, hardly my favorite theatrical genre.
Fortunately, The Brothers Size has enough going for it to merit recommending, even to those with tastes similar to my own.
First and foremost amongst its assets are its stars, all three of them doing dazzling work, from Brown's forceful, grounded Ogun to Hancock's intense, appealing Oshoosi, to Perkins' sly, sexy Elegba. Actors don't get any better, or more powerful, or more polished than these, especially with a director as gifted as Shirley Jo Finney (back from In The Red And Brown Water) to guide them.
Add to that fellow returnee Ameenah Kaplan's electric choreography (I have the sense that the Fountain production might feature more dance than others before it) and Peter Bayne's stunning original music and sound design and you've got a production that offers a good deal more onstage than on the printed page.
Scenic designer Hana S. Kim's darkly-hued set may at first glance appear nearly bare, but it is clearly the work of a talented designer as is Pablo Santiago's dramatic if murky lighting. Still, dusky tones and dim lighting can prove soporific when The Brothers Size launch into those flashback soliloquies.
Costume designer Naila Aladdin Sanders does her accustomed excellent work, though Brother/Sister Play #1 gave her considerably more opportunity to strut her imaginative stuff than #2 does. Misty Carlisle's multiple props (lots of wheels and hubcap paraphernalia) are winning creations. Kudos go too to Brenda Lee Eager's gorgeous vocal arrangements and to the three stars' exquisite harmonizing. JB Blanc's dialect coaching gets thumbs up as well.
Terri Roberts is production stage manager and Shawna Voragen assistant stage manager.
Ultimately, whether you love The Brothers Size to bits or merely admire its many strong points will depend on your affinity for McCraney's unique writing style. Though the playwright's much lauded lyricism is not this reviewer's cup of tea, the Fountain's latest merits those of a similar bent to mine giving it a look-see.

New Diva Enters Debate Over Bernanke's Successor
Add this to the ways celebrities are just like us — they also care about the race to replace Ben Bernanke as Federal Reserve chairman!
Bette Midler, the brassy singer/actor, weighed in on the Fed chairman sweepstakes in a series of tweets over the weekend. The big take away — she is not a fan of Lawrence Summers, the former Treasury Secretary and top Obama economic aide, who is considered one of two top contenders for the job. (Mr. Bernanke, the current chairman, isn't expected to seek reappointment when his term ends in January). Janet Yellen, the vice chairwoman of the Fed, is the other candidate most seriously in play.

joni mitchell neverrrrr lied.
i was roaming around the city last week craving some comfort food and #bae suggested great ny noodletown. i wrote a pretty extensive post about chinatown, but i left noodletown out so it can fly solo. it is easily one of my fave restaurants in the city, so i gladly skipped on down there for dinner.
we get to the corner of bowery and canal and i start flipping out. where was noodletown?! a few buildings on the block had been knocked down and i'm spinning around looking for the noodletown sign. we started asking people to no avail. i start shaking. my eyes start welling up. i'm yelling about how much i hate new york….and then i walked to the next corner and found it.
::wipes brow::
great ny noodletown dooooes have great noodles, but people come for the duck. you can order everything from a whole duck to (my fave) duck and pineapple fried rice. they cart them by the tens freshly roasted past your table and it's hard to not just yank one off and inhale it.
duck aside, the entire menu is worth writing home to mom about. i love their singapore mei fun and order pretty much every time i go. since i'm that terrible person that eats general tso outside of the confines of my hood, i order it here and it's the best. fresh white breast meat and the best sauce i've ever tasted. i've legit taken my finger to the plate before. the noodle soups are obviously bomb as well.
you can never go wrong with anything you order here, unless congee or pork stomach porridge isn't your jam. so head over, close your eyes and let your finger land on something (super cheap) and delicious. give your local chinese takeout a break and treat yourself. you deserve it!


text: There are many types of food available to feed baby turtles. Pet stores have flakes and pellets that are made for baby turtles. Turtle sticks are another popular option for baby turtles. They even sell canned turtle food. If you get into a bind and can't find baby turtle food, fish food is a good alternative.

While at the IPCPR show last month I managed to end up with samples of the Azan line of cigars from Roberto Duran. The booth was busy the times I came across it, but a friend gave me some samples, and I think there was someone around the booth handing them out. These were highly recommended and I was looking forward to smoking them, but I really didn't know much about them. It turns out that Azan is an old Cuban trademark that has been out of production for so long nobody remembers it! Interestingly, the brand was created in Cuba by Chinese immigrants back in the 1920s. So, after hearing from Gabriel Piñeres of Creativas, the PR firm that handles Azan, as well as Toraño Family cigars, I figured it would be prudent to smoke some of these up.
I started with the White Premium Line Campana. This is a traditional belicoso size at 5½ x 52 with a tapered head. It was a very nice looking cigar, the Corojo wrapper was flawless and was smooth and symmetrical. It's burn was perfect, just the way I like it with a straight, flat burn. It was a very enjoyable cigar to smoke both in the aesthetics as well as the flavor. The flavor was clean, smooth, with a nice spice and great, rich body. I really enjoyed smoking this cigar and will be on the lookout for more. I have a robusto remaining which may not last long. This was a hidden gem and thanks to my friend Joe and whoever else handed me samples!
I figured the logical thing to do the following evening was to smoke the Azan Burgundy line robusto. This cigar is a little more rustic in appearance than the White line. According to the website they use a lower grade of Corojo wrapper on this, and the appearance is a little lumpier. The flavor was nice. It shared a certain sweetness I came across in it's classier sibling, and the burn and draw were just as good. This is certainly a nice alternative to the White, which I can assume carries a higher price tag. Laziness on my part leads to this assumption as I haven't yet had the chance to shop these yet. I can conclude that Roberto Duran is doing things right. He's reviving a historic brand with quality cigars that are smoking well. I look forward to smoking more of both of these.
Saturday brought yet another trip up to Hamburg, PA to the Cigars International store. My friend Bacon Jams Bruce and I went up for the Drew Estate Event. We smoked some fine cigars, including my favorites, the Joya de Nicaragua Cabinetta #13 Lancero and an Undercrown Corona Viva. I used some gift cards I received for my birthday to pick up the Xikar MTX multi tool/cigar scissors. Thanks guys, you know who you are. This tool will requite some practice, but I've hear and seen really good things about it. My concern is that it's too small and I'm worried about losing it. Perhaps I'll put it on a lanyard and wear it around my neck! Anyway, the Drew Estate event was well attended, but it didn't look like the silent auction items were getting a lot of bid action. There was another custom carved humidor but Jessi Flores, the director of Subculture Studios that was a work of art. The auction was again supporting TECHO. This isn't a criticism, but an observation, but I really think a store like CI is a place people go looking for bargains, not necessarily the well heeled clientele that you find at some upscale shops. I hope they raised a lot of money for this worthwhile charity. Also there were the Operation: Cigars for Warriors folks, and the local Drew Estate Rep, Chris Stone, donated 10″ of his hair to Locks Of Love. Well done, once again, to the generous cigar community. I admit, my reason for going in the first place was to see the Drew Estate crew, and say hello to Jonathan Drew, who hobbled in around 6:30. We had a nice little visit on my way out the door. My apologies to the line of guys waiting to meet him. He's a good friend and a heck of a nice guy. There were also the usual Drew Estate ambassadors and fans present, always nice to see that cast of characters.
That's it for now, until the next time,

Babs, Umbrella Cockatoo: Her Story
Permanently under PRC's financial wing 2013 – 2016. She resided with Lori Gibbons of the Hamilton Parrot Club, who gave Babs the loving home she required.
Update February 18, 2016
With the heaviest of hearts . . .
"Babs is now flying free. This morning, February 18th, 2016, I was advised that she was in severe renal failure and I made the decision to humanely end her life.
I took Mrr Mrr with me to say goodbye. Babs was very shut down but briefly perked up when she saw Mrr Mrr. Mrr leaned over to give her one last preen.
Babs was euthanized in my arms. Babs is being privately cremated with her ashes returned to me. I declined to have a necropsy done which was a hard decision for me as Guelph is a teaching hospital and they had done so much to let her live. Babs body had been invaded medically many times and I did not want to do this to her once last time.
Thank you everyone for your support and for sharing Babs journey with me."
~Lori McCreary (Gibbons) of Hamilton Parrot Club, who rescued and gave Babs a wonderful home for the past few years.
Babs' journey with PRC started in 2013 when we received this letter:
Dear Gloria, Directors of Parrot Resource Centre and Friends of PRC:
On behalf of the Hamilton Parrot Club I would like to thank all of you at Parrot Resource Centre for your extremely generous donation towards Babs (the Umbrella Cockatoo with the prolapse vent) exam, surgery and follow up at the Avian Clinic at Guelph University (June 5 and ongoing). Without your intervention she would have not been able to get the immediate veterinary assistance she needed.
Babs was examined by Dr. Hugues Beaufrere, Service Chief, DVM, PhD, ABVP(Avian) ECZM (Avian) the morning of June 5 and given the vague history I have of her; female (28 ?) year old umbrella cockatoo, been in multiple homes, had a vent prolapse for at least 5 years, during this time she was not seen by a vet, owner died, new owner took her to BurlOak Animal Clinic in February 2013 where she had her vent tacked, 3 days later she blew the tack, Babs was then re homed due to her owner being on an oxygen machine, Babs was not taken back to vet after her failed surgery, Dr. Beaufrere decided the best course of action was to admit her for surgery that day.
Dr. Beaufrere explained that:
vent prolapses were more common in male cockatoos that had not been weaned properly and in females with internal masses, ones that are chronic egg layers or even ones with calcified eggs in their reproductive tracts. Prolapses do not occur in the wild and much is still to be learned about their causes.
Dr. Beaufrere decided he would need to do a CBC with manual diff, TS; avian, biochemistry avian profile, give her a Deslorelin Implant (comes from Australia) to downplay her raging hormones, do an endoscopy to see what was happening inside of her, take x rays and then perform a vent tack surgery using stainless steel sutures (steel tends to stay in better). Dr. Beaufrere explained there were different surgeries available for Babs but that they always start with the least intrusive and then go from there if it does not work. Babs came through her surgery and was alert and inter active when I picked her up at 6:30 pm.
The findings were amazing, heart breaking and very informative as to why she had her prolapse. Dr. Beaufrere said her condition was the worse he has seen. Her prolapse was the size of a green grape that hung on the outside of her body that has now been tucked back up inside where it belongs. Her reproductive tract and organs are severely inflamed and there is an unknown mass (possible it is a growth or maybe part of her organs, everything is swollen that it was too hard to determine what some things were). It was obvious that she has been a chronic egg layer.
Dr. Beaufrere is trying to calm her hormones down with a chemical implant and in the future will do another endoscopy to try to determine what the mass is. Her vent tissue is extended and very flaccid; this may result in the prolapse occurring again, something that is expected to happen. I was fortunate to see the film of the endoscopy and am going to ask for a copy if possible. Babs also has the remnants of an old calcified egg buried in the tissue walls, was sad but amazing to see.
Her x rays showed inflammation in her reproductive area and also revealed why she cannot open her wings. The bones of her wings have been stripped of calcium, probably from the chronic egg laying and in part poor diet she was on. The wing joints were fused, possibly old broken bone injuries, this is permanent damage and she will need to be monitored for arthritic pain as she ages. This bird is a trooper; she had no infection in her gut, just an elevated white count from the inflammation. Babs has a follow up appointment June 12 at Guelph.
On the way home she was dancing to the radio, saying hi to me though I was told she does not speak and started to defecate, a great sign she was on the mend. The day after her surgery she was eating, had some pretty bird gold, zu preem, banana, took some yam then threw it back at me, lol and a walnut, will be working on getting her to eat healthier, she had been on a human junk food diet and seeds before.
Her demeanor is sweet, she is not aggressive at all, only beaks a no which I respect, no biting. My goal for Babs is to let her settle at my home for about a month, learn to play with toys, learn to step up, teach her to forage, get her outside for some sunshine to help her bones and to get her through the post-surgery. After which we will look for a new loving home for her.
Once again EVERYONE THANK YOU for YOUR assistance and care, without you Babs would have been stuck in a filthy too small cage with no stimulation, a cage she had not been out of since February. Thanks to Bev Penny for introducing me to PRC.

President, The Hamilton Parrot Club
Babs continues her recovery under the dedication and love of Lori Gibbons. Babs will need to have the staples replaced on an ongoing basis and she needs twice daily cleaning of the vent area at this time. On June 20th she had the steel staples replaced with blue nylon sutures, providing her more comfort.
As of January 1, 2016, Babs' vet bills have been over $6,500.
Update September 2013
Babs is learning trust. This the first person Babs asked to step up to in my home besides myself. My friend Sandy came over to visit Babs and hold her while I did her nails. Afterwards Babs kept going near Sandy trying to lean into her from the table. I asked Sandy to offer her arm, she did and up went Babs. Warms my heart seeing the progress she is making at trusting people and getting strength in her feet.
Deb and Ed Pepin dropped over with some toys for Babs on Saturday, Ed came just to see Babs again. He asked for a step up from the table and she gave it and immediately snuggled in.
Update April 2014
Babs has developed postintubation tracheal stenosis from previous multiple prolapse surgeries (her throat is damaged from the constant intubation and tissue is dying). She will have to undergo surgery to remove dead tissue and widen her trachea. Without the surgery Babs will die: she will not be able to breathe or eat.
The actual quote is $1400 to $1600 which includes medical boarding, not included in the guess. There is also an optional charge of $200 if we want the tissue tested and $100 for a culture, culture testing is more important. Babs had emergency stenosis surgery in May, 2014. It was undetermined if she would survive at the time of the surgery.
Babs' Youcaring page can be viewed here.
Update September 3, 2014
Babs continues to be the miracle survivor and is thriving, becoming more Cockatoo each day, reports Lori Gibbons, her caretaker in Hamilton, ON. Her medical bills to date $5,825.22 have been paid 100% by PRC, through donations and fund raising We continue to raise money for her ongoing medical care, if you can help please PP to email@example.com with Babs in the subject line.
Her next check-up is January 2015!
The Crazy Bird Ladies auction summer 2014, raised $1,058.75 for Babs care, it is on credit at the University of Guelph, where she receives her splendid care.
Update January 26, 2016
Babs on left with her female friend, Murphy. November 2015.
Life is good for Babs, thanks to the support of wonderful, caring people who donate to her medical care fund at Parrot Resource Centre. I updated her You Caring and it is active again.

Cloacal / Vent Prolapse
Cloacal prolapse or vent prolapse is a condition where the inner tissues of the cloaca protrude (hang out) from the vent, exposing the intestines, cloaca or uterus.
The cloaca is the part of the bird's body which stores urates, feces, urine and egg. The cloacal lips (or vent) are used to control the passage and frequency of droppings and other eliminations.
Mature Umbrella and Moluccan cockatoos suffer more often from cloacal prolapse, as do hand-fed birds. However, cockatoos not bred by humans are not affected by cloacal prolapse.
Cloacal prolapse occurs when long-term strain is put onto the vent. Usually the reasons are both physical and behavioral.
Below is Babs, Umbrella Cockatoo, after surgery with surgical steel staples applied to the vent to control the prolapse.

Are you familiar with LeapFrog products? If not, familiarize yourself immediately. Seriously, go now to LeapFrog and start exploring. You will love their products as much as we do.
We were selected to host a Rock'n Learn Party hosted by LeapFrog and we were sent the Touch Magic Learning Bus and Touch Magic Rockin' Guitars. We were thrilled at this opportunity since we are huge LeapFrog fans and have a variety of their products!
The Touch Magic Learning Bus has been a great tool not only for Ryan learning to read, but for Owen too. Some of you may already know that Owen has some trouble with articulation in his speech. He talks non-stop and carries on full conversations as a normal 4 year old does; however, if you don't know Owen and "his language" it can be difficult to understand what he is talking about. The Touch Magic Learning Bus helps him with practicing his sounds and learning what each independent letter sounds like.
Owen is able to learn while having fun. He doesn't even realize he is working on his speech articulation when he plays with this, but I know. And I love it.
The best part is that it isn't the only feature it has! It also has a music mode. Owen loves to sing along with the fun songs it has to offer reinforcing the speech articulation for him. LOVE!
The Touch Magic Rockin' Guitar is another hit in our house and for our neighborhood friends! Everyone loves to strum the guitar's flat surface and sing along with the ten different learning songs it has (or create their own song!). The kids can add in their own unique sounds to make their song fun and sometimes a bit silly. What kid wouldn't love this?!
We have been having fun with our performances and singing as loud as we can. Of course, every time the video camera goes on, everyone becomes shy and and quiet. Perhaps I need to just keep a camera on all the time to keep the noise levels at a minimum around here. HA!
The age ranges start fairly young on both of these two products, but we have found that there really isn't an age limit on them. At our party we had 5+ year old kids loving them just as much, if not more, than the younger ones. Although I have to admit that Emma is a HUGE fan of the guitar and she is just 4 months old! We hold Emma and put the guitar on her lap and she loves to touch it and make sounds. I haven't been able to get a picture or video of her doing this, but I will have to work on that and post it for you to see. She gets the biggest smile when she makes music and sounds.
In the meantime, here are a few other pictures to enjoy for now. Sorry for the blurry, unfocused pictures. These were snapped with my phone before our play date/party started and they were the only ones I ended up taking. Having three kiddos of my own plus others over for a fun play date doesn't leave much time for photos.
Disclaimer: I received free LeapFrog products in order to host the LeapFrog sponsored Rock'n Learn Party. The opinions expressed here are my own.

text: The 1986 5000cstq did not run well Thursday afternoon when I left work. It ran fine this morning driving into work. Seems to me that it is suddenly running really lean. Symptoms after work: Started fine. Idled a little rough. Missed terribly upon attempting to drive away. Almost died out then surged. Did not have much ability to move itself. Stumbled with occasional knocking, even on relatively low-effort acceleration. Ran a little better once warm, but still not much power and stumbling with occasional knocking if pushed harder than it liked, which was not very hard at all. I had to be really gentle with it. There were no large hills on the trip home, but had there been any hills it seemed that it would have caused terrible knocking and stumbling. Was able to slowly work up into higher rpms (>4000) when taken up gently enough. Boost gauge on dash shows pretty normal amounts of boost for rpm. Got home and pulled codes - 4444 - Nada. Cannot find any obvious hose leaks. Again, it seems really lean to me. Where should I start looking? Fuel pressure? Vacuum hoses? Some sensor? Fuel pump (less than 3 months old)? Where? What could work fine driving into work and then act so wrong on my trip home 9 hours later? I will greatly appreciate any help, BTDT, etc. TIA, Eric R. Kissell 1986 5000cstq, 1.8 bar, k24, not happy right now

Analysis of a Synonymy Network
The purpose of this report is to present the study of a linguistic network based on the relation of synonymy. The network has been extracted from a dictionary of synonyms in French. Due to errors and ambiguities in the data, the synonyms are not always grouped into distinct components. To refine the results, we apply a clustering algorithm to the network. Each densely connected cluster is considered to correspond to a general concept in the language. Finally we develop a new general method, based on the introduction of noise in the network, to identify nodes which lie on the border between clusters and to evaluate the robustness of the clustering. This method can be applied with any clustering algorithm, provided that the algorithm works on weighted networks.
Keywords: Complex Networks ; Markov Clustering Algorithm ; Community Structure ; Synonymy Dictionnary ; Word Senses

Yes I made up that name, Gameschool Room. At least I think I did so if I'm wrong don't tell me. Since this room has always been the game room, bonus room, and now half of it functions as a homeschool room, Gameschool just makes sense. :)
This room has been a long work in progress. It sat the same for a few years, probably 3 now. I just didn't know what to do with it. Probably because back then I didn't have plans to homeschool, so maybe God left me with an unclear vision of that space on purpose. You know, to save me from having to do yet another makeover when we actually did decide to homeschool this year!
Ok enough.
So we got a new sofa! And a new ottoman!
I'm going for a fun look in here with lots of bright colors like pinks and greys, so a modern sofa (something a little out of my comfort zone), goes perfect in here!
This particular sofa is from Bryght and is the Nova Bard Grey Sofa. It is a great price and I'm super happy with it. The description on the site about this sofa is:
- The Nova collection characterizes a Danish design that elegantly unifies modern minimalist lines with functionality.
All of Bryght's items come directly from the source (the factories), eliminating the importers, distributors, wholesalers or retailers, which allows us to get the great prices on high design and high quality pieces that they offer.
I love the charcoal grey color of this sofa too.
The clean lines and simple structure of the sofa I really like. It is more of a firmer sofa than I am used to, but it's still comfortable and great to read our school books on and lounge.
To off-set the modern sofa a bit, I chose a more traditional type ottoman which I LOVE. My favorite part is probably the awesome castor wheels. :)
This is also from Bryght and is their Edward White Ottoman. Love love LOVE it! And again, can't beat the price.
One thing that's cool about this ottoman is that the top cushion is not fixed. So if you would rather have a floor cushion or something instead, you can just take this off easily. It does not slide around though if you are using it as is, which would bug me if it did.
And then just being able to roll it around wherever easily, is SO convenient. We move it around all the time while we are doing school.
Here are a few more shots of this room and the new furniture.
I'm so thrilled with how this room is coming. I have more to show you soon, and I promise we will have a full reveal before Christmas! I don't have a problem taking my time in doing a full room makeover now. I want to be sure I choose pieces and decorate with things we will love for a long time. It's all about decorating with a purpose, not on who has the quickest room reveal. Plus, it involves hours of time and money!
Be sure and check out Bryght if you're in the market for sleek new furniture pieces! They delivered via a freight company and it went great, but just know they can have longer shipping times sometimes, so they can offer the good discounts and cheap shipping. It's well worth the wait!
Have you ever shopped at Bryght before? What did you think?!

I have been a patient at Brookside Gynecology for over 20 years. The doctors are fabulous. I can't tell you how comfortable I feel when I walk into this office.

If you are looking for a relaxed atmosphere and for a positive experience, then Brookside is the one!
Jen L.,
After my first visit, I knew I was coming back. Warm welcoming staff and caring nurses and doctors. I had to have major surgery and was fearful, but was rest assured that all would be ok, and it was. Thank you Brookside!Patti R,
It is hard to find good medical care combined with good quality people. Being a patient at Brookside for almost 10 years, I have found it. The doctors and staff have proven themselves to be professional and caring. It is worth the trip! I highly recommend Brookside Gynecology.J.K. Katonah

Yesterday, the following call was dispatched:
PR says there is a 5 yr old child being driven on a motorcycle by an adult…last seen heading downtown on 123 Ave. The child has a helmet, PR concerned about the child if the adult crashed.
Let's take a minute to digest that one…
How many problems do you see with this detail? I humbly submit my list.
1. PR is anonymous (that is a whole separate post).
2. PR apparently doesn't give a shit about the adult if the adult crashed.
3. PR said nothing about any kind of irresponsible/dangerous riding.
4. There is no CVC regarding age restrictions for m/c passengers.
5. It is a possibility the PR was driving whilst using a cell phone (possibly further putting the child in danger…although this is complete conjecture).
6. This is in no way a police matter. There is no crime. There is no violation. You might as well call in and say you are concerned the sun is shining and further damaging your skin with it's heinous UV rays.
It'd be one thing if the child was precariously holding on or the rider was being unsafe in some matter or the kid wasn't wearing a helmet, but none of those things appear to have occurred. Per the detail, the PR's only concern was potential injury to the child if the adult crashed.
So, please, folks. I'm not trying to dissuade you from calling the police. Just think first.
