J.Lo's toyboy Casper Smart wants to have kids in future
Washington, May 16 (ANI): Jennifer Lopez' dancer boyfriend Casper Smart has revealed that he wants to have children "in the future."
Smart, 25, insists he is not ready to have a family with the 42-year-old singer-and-actress - who has four-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony - just yet but wants to be a parent one day.
He was asked if Lopez's new movie, 'What To Expect When You're Expecting', had made him want to have children.
"I see what you're doing ... I'm not playing your game," Contactmusic quoted him as telling E! News.
"I for sure want kids in the future. In the future ... When I'm ready and when the time is right," he said.
Smart explained that he and the Latin diva met through his work and said their romantic relationship happened "spontaneously" because they "couldn't fight the chemistry."
"It just really spontaneously happened I guess. The chemistry was there. You can't fight it.
"She's just a beautiful woman. She's just a good person. Like anybody else, we cry the same, we bleed the same, sweat the same. We're all just people.
"We're not married, we're not engaged. We're just enjoying our life right now," he added. (ANI)

Google publishes Zopfli as open-source compression algorithm to speed up Web downloads
Compression is about 100 times slower than conventional methods but compresses about 5% better, Google said
IDG News Service - Google is open-sourcing a new general purpose data compression library called Zopfli that can be used to speed up Web downloads.
The Zopfli Compression Algorithm, which got its name from a Swiss bread recipe, is an implementation of the Deflate compression algorithm that creates a smaller output size compared to previous techniques, wrote Lode Vandevenne, a software engineer with Google's Compression Team, on the Google Open Source Blog on Thursday.
"The smaller compressed size allows for better space utilization, faster data transmission, and lower Web page load latencies. Furthermore, the smaller compressed size has additional benefits in mobile use, such as lower data transfer fees and reduced battery use," Vandevenne wrote.
The more exhaustive compression techniques used achieve higher data density but also make the compression a lot slower. This does not affect the decompression speed though, Vandenne wrote.
Zopfli is a compression-only library and existing software can be used to decompress the data, he said. Zopfli is compatible with Zip, PNG, gzip and HTTP requests among others, Vandevenne added.
Zopfli's output is generally 3% to 8% smaller compared to zlib, another compression library based on the Deflate compression algorithm, according to Vandevenne. "We believe that Zopfli represents the state of the art in Deflate-compatible compression," he said.
"This compressor takes more time (~100x slower), but compresses around 5% better than zlib and better than any other zlib-compatible compressor we have found," Google said on Zopfli's Google Code page. The code is available under Apache License 2.0.
The new compression library however requires 2 to 3 orders of magnitude more CPU time than zlib at maximum quality. Therefore, it is best suited for applications where data is compressed once and sent over the network many times, such as static content for the Web, Vandevenne said.
Vandevenne and his colleague Jyrki Alakuijala, a Google software engineer who also worked on the project, recommend in their research paper to use Zopfli "for compression of static content and other content where data transfer or storage costs are more significant than the increase in CPU time."
"By open sourcing Zopfli, thus allowing webmasters to better optimize the size of frequently accessed static content, we hope to make the Internet a bit faster for all of us," Vandevenne said.

Jerry Jeff Walker
By J Poet
Jerry Jeff Walker is one of the original country music outlaws, a wandering minstrel that has logged millions of miles on the road. From his folk rock days with Circus Maximus, to his hit records in the 70s, including the standard "Mr. Bojangles," to his country outlaw days with his Lost Gonzo Band, to his current status as Americana icon and grand old man of the Texas songwriting clan, Walker's remained one of country music's most underrated performers.
Jerry Jeff Walker was actually born in the state of New York in 1942. His birth name was Ronald Clyde Crosby. He grew up singing rock'n'roll in a high school band called The Tones, but when they got a record... Read More

Aug 9, 2012; Chicago, IL, USA; Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning (18) signals against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. Mandatory Credit: Matthew Emmons-US PRESSWIRE
Peyton Manning is certainly one of the wild cards for fantasy owners as it's going to be difficult to predict his success in Denver.
It's difficult to imagine a Peyton Manning offense that doesn't put up prolific passing numbers. In 13 seasons as the starting quarterback in Indianapolis, Manning averaged over 4,000 yards and 30 touchdowns per season in an offense that certainly emphasized the passing game.
While the Broncos were strong in their debut preseason game, defeating the Bears 31-3, Manning's showing wasn't as strong. The four-time AP NFL MVP completed four of his seven pass attempts, but threw an interception in his only trip to the redzone.
Manning is certainly one of the wild cards for fantasy owners as it's going to be difficult to predict Manning's success in a new offense, one year removed from a neck injury that reportedly drained a lot of his throwing strength. However, Manning has been productive throughout his career based on his ability to out-smart everyone around him and that shouldn't change in Denver.

Oklahoma tornadoes: 'It took it all'CAPITOL CHRISTMAS TREE
At the top of the tree is Bud Dolan, the State Capitol Park contract administrator. He is assigned to the division of capitol asset management/ office of facilities services. He has been erecting the Capitol Christmas tree for 13 years. Workers began assembling the Christmas tree on the south plaza of the state Capitol Monday afternoon, Nov. 19, 2012. The 30-foot artificial pine tree has 256 branches and 2000 lights. The tree was donated to the state by the Weyerhaeuser Company Foundation seven years ago. Trustees from the Hillside Community Correctional Center assisted state employees in attaching the greenery and ornaments onto the frame. Photo by Jim Beckel, The Oklahoman

JACKSON, Wyo. — Gov. Matt Mead's proposal to cut about $1 million from the state tourism budget is drawing opposition from some people in Jackson Hole.
Jackson Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Jeff Golightly is trying to rally opposition to the proposed cuts, which will be taken up by state lawmakers in the general legislative session that began Tuesday.
More than $500,000 of the money would be taken from an advertising program that lets small business piggyback on advertisements paid for by the state. Through the program, businesses can buy ad space on inserts and pamphlets that promote Wyoming.
Golightly tells the Jackson Hole News & Guide that it doesn't make sense to cut the tourism budget because the industry brings money back to the state.

Emi Gennis says:
Hic & Hoc Publications is planning to publish their first anthology next fall, and they have selected me to edit the book. I'm very excited about this! The theme of the book is Unsolved Mysteries, and we're looking for submissions of short, nonfiction comics that fit within that theme. Stories can range anywhere from cold case murders and disappearances, to the bizarre phenomena science can't explain.
Please email me at emigennis(at)gmail(dot)com with your story ideas, or if you have any questions. … Please tell your friends!
My inside sources say to ignore the deadline listed, it is being pushed back to September 15. But if you or someone you know is interested in this, I suspect it's a very good project to get involved in. Here are some technical details:
It's true! The new deadline is September 15th! Keep the submissions coming!

DescriptionCasket Quarry has been frequented by ice climbers for 30+ years.

Is it unsporting to win now? Are people not allowed to use an effective loadout that they may have used for 1000 levels and got comfortable with?
Sorry, I must've of missed the memo.
And surely, if the burly shotty loadout is so cheap and easy to use then why are these people try hards? Surely they're trying very little and relaxing. Perhaps using the controller one handed while they drink a cool, refreshing beer. 'Cause these loadouts require no skill, right? Everyone you see with this loadout is a god yes? I havn't seen loads of people use this set up and get their **** kicked, no?
Seriously guys, chill the frell out. You're claiming people are complete tools while being complete tools yourselves.

I'm gonna get custom ones soon, had a weird wooshing sound in my left ear (djing ear) for a few days after glade which proper scared me. Iv got alpine music safe plugs but I don't like them, they take too much of the music away.
which headphones u got motion? 30 quid? surely not the er15's?

mmmmmmmm...not entirely sure there're really needed.....look at djs like grooverider, fabio, randal......all the original djs from the scene...theyve been exposed to more loud music than any of us and they dont use them. each to there own, but then saying that know djs playing on a valve system have to wear them.
Isn't fresh like pretty deaf now? Has to get other people to mix his tracks down? I could be imagining that tho.
Earplugs are incredibly important. I wouldn't play out, or go to a rave without mine in.

Agreed. Hearing loss is permanent, so once it's shot it's only going to get worse.
I'm only 31 and managed to develop tinnitus after about 13 years of DJing. I regret not being wiser earlier on to protect my hearing, especially now that I'm more into the production side of things; Mixing down a track can be a pain in the dick with a constant 20kHz ringing in the ears.
I wear the alpines when playing out. The sounds fine, if the monitors shit it actually helps to be honest. I stick the lightest filters in, doesnt change much, if you drop some heavy bass weight and want to hear it in full, no harm in taking them out for a minute. at least thats what i do

My husband is a big fan of video games and Magic the Gathering, so there are a lot of options we can explore. All ages of adults are welcome here, but we are 25 and 27. I think it would be fun to do cheap poker nights where everyone brings 5 -10 bucks in change, no one loses big and we all have fun. I wa …

STOCKTON -- The current members of the Modesto Metro Conference would stay together for all sports and would add Modesto Christian for boys' and girls' basketball and Central Catholic would move to the Valley Oak League under the latest plan hashed out Tuesday in Stockton by the Sac-Joaquin Section realignment committee.
With the MMC staying together, the membership of Central California Conference also would remain static, with El Capitan starting its competitive life as a member of the Western Athletic Conference when the third Merced high school opens this fall.
If the committee does not make additional changes to the plan at its next meeting, scheduled for March 12, it will adopt the proposal, then send it to the board of governors for final approval. The plan then would take effect in the 2014-15 school year.

As most proud pet parents know, providing your guinea pigs with adequate guinea pig bedding is vital to their maintenance and overall well-being since they are in their cages for a majority of the day. The wrong type of guinea pig bedding, such as cedar shavings can be uncomfortable and even cause illness to your beloved little guinea pigs, which is why it's important to use bedding that is extremely absorbent and doesn't contain any oils with harmful hydrocarbons. Known for being safe and natural, Carefresh Pet Bedding is free of inks, dyes and other hazardous chemicals. From confetti pet bedding in an exciting blend of fun colors to natural bedding made from reclaimed wood pulp that is absorbent and produces less dust than other types, there is a variety of Carefresh Pet Bedding to suit every guinea pig.
When your guinea pig isn't as playful as he normally is, it's wise to watch for signs of struggle or illness. There is a special type of Carefresh Pet Bedding that is composed of bright white cellulose fiber that makes your guinea pig more visible while in his cage and is gentle enough for some guinea pigs with sensitive skin. By absorbing three times its weight in pet urine and other liquids, Carefresh Pet Bedding helps to eliminate pet odors while keeping your guinea pig cage clean and dry. Formulated with eco-friendly pet parents in mind, there is natural guinea pig bedding that is made up of biodegradable and recycled natural paper fibers. This type of natural bedding will not cake to the bottom of your guinea pig's cage for easy cleaning and also has baking soda to help reduce pet odors. Another type of earth-friendly guinea pig bedding available has a soothing lavender scent and ensures the comfort of your guinea pig by being soft, cozy and highly absorbent.
To be used in conjunction with all types of guinea pig bedding are straw mats and woven grass pet beds that offer your guinea pigs a pleasant place to rest. In addition to the common bedding materials of paper, aspen, pellets and wood pulp, there is small animal bedding made out of short cotton fibers that is soft and cozy. With all of the types of small animal bedding available, you cannot go wrong with Carefresh Pet bedding as all types are extremely absorbent, heat-processed to reduce bacterial growth and oil-free.

Meg fakes being sane, Lily might be pregnant and Noah pushes Luke away.
Holden and Molly go to the hospital to check on Meg. He tells Molly how nice it's been to have a friend to help him deal with this. The nurse advises them to prepare themselves for a shock. When they go in, Meg is knitting. Holden is shocked by how sane she seems. She's had a few hours of therapy and it's helped her out of the 'haze'. Now she wants to make things up to the people she's hurt. Damian broke her heart and she sank into paranoia but she's sure it was all in her head. The nurse interrupts to medicate her. Meg takes the pill but doesn't swallow it and then hides the pill. Holden and Molly leave. She worries about the 'Stepford' version of Meg. He tries being more optimistic.
Meg meets with her doctor. She tells him how much better she feels. She wants to take the next step. "I need to see Damian Grimaldi," she says, asking the doctor if he will talk Damian into coming. The doctor arranges the meeting. When Damian arrives, Meg tells him how sorry she is for everything that happened. As soon as the doctor leaves them alone, Damian says he finds all of this weird. She tells him the doctor is as easy to fool as he is. Soon, she will be pronounced cured and released. "You know what the first thing I'll do is? I'm going to kill you," she says.
Holden and Molly go back to the farm house. He worries what it would mean if his sister really is lying about being better. They wonder if there could be something more to the stories Meg has been telling. She thinks she should go and dig around in Kentucky for some answers. He offers to go with her. They flirt.
Noah returns to Lily's. He tells Lucinda, Luke and Lily that he doesn't want anyone to think of him as a charity case. He wants to fight to get better and claims Dr. Oliver says he can. He wants to go to Oliver's clinic in Dallas. Lily and her mother decide to leave the men alone. Noah tells Luke not to try and talk him out of this. When Luke tries to get close to him, Noah pushes him back. "I can't," he says. Too much has changed and he thinks that Luke is trying to make him accept what has happened and move on. Luke insists that isn't true and he just wants him to get better. Noah says he has to see again and everything else is secondary. "Including me?" Luke asks. They go out on the porch and Noah says that now he can't see his film, he realizes how much it meant to him. Luke puts a jacket on him and asks him to reach in the pocket. Noah discovers an award in it. Luke explains that his film won first prize at the student film festival. He finished the movie for him and tells him how much everyone liked it. "You did this to control me. You took my work and you made it your own," Noah says. Luke doesn't know why he can't see how he did all of this all for him. "I can't see period. I can't see," Noah says.
Alone, Noah sits down and plays the recording of the film Luke made.
Luke sits outside and tries calling Dr. Oliver.
At Metro, Lily tells her mother that she's been feeling nauseous. "This is how I felt when I..." Lily starts. She wonders if she is pregnant. "Is there any chance it could be Holden's?" Lucinda asks. Lily decides to run off to the hospital and get a test.
Molly goes to Fashions to buy some lingerie. She bumps into Lucinda, who is looking at maternity wear. Lucinda says the whole town thinks she is carrying on with Holden. Molly tries to run. Lucinda insists that Holden and Lily always find their way back together. Molly tells her that's "passé" and she needs to start acting her age. "If you can count that high," Molly snipes.
At the hospital, Holden runs into Lily. He asks her why she's there. She claims she has a stomach bug. He thinks she seems anxious and decides he should leave town. A nurse comes out and tells Lily that they are ready to take her blood and see if she's pregnant.
At home, Katie laughs as she finds Henry and Simon sleeping together on her couch. She clears her throat. They jump apart when they notice they're on top of each other. She teases them and they remember when Simon worked at the garage. He asks Katie out to dinner and she agrees. After Simon leaves, Henry teases Katie and tells her it's a lot more than just dinner. "The last thing I need right now is a new love," she says. Henry thinks that makes Simon perfect because he's her old love. She wants to concentrate on Jacob and work. She already has an idea to pitch to Kim. Henry urges her to stay open to Simon being around.
At Al's, a customer rants at Simon while he's making a reservation. As they argue, a woman walks through the door and recognizes him. Her name is Clarissa. He wonders why she is there. She starts to laugh when he explains that he's working there. When she tells him she has a scam set up and she just needs to finalize it, he refuses to get involved. After she leaves, he counts his tips. "Being poor sucks," he complains before calling and cancelling his dinner reservation.
Katie and Henry go to the station with Jacob. She tells the baby that this is where she met Brad. They do a practice run for her show idea. Jacob cries so Henry sings him a lullaby. "I'm so lucky to have you," she tells Henry. That means a lot to him. Simon calls Katie and asks her to meet him. Henry agrees to watch Jacob and she runs off.
When Katie arrives at Al's, Simon shows her in. He's closed it and arranges a candlelit meal for them. Henry watches them through the window. "Your mama's happy we're happy," he tells Jacob. Inside, Katie remembers how great things used to taste when they were poor. They eat Shepherd's pie.

Fiona writes gritty yet darkly humorous fiction, often involving gay characters and almost always with a twist in the tail. Her work has been published in anthologies from the likes of Byker Books, Pill Hill Press, and QueeredFiction; as well as in magazines and online at sites such as The Pygmy Giant, Shotgun Honey, and Velvet Mafia.
Fiona currently splits her life between a pointy Victorian house in Birmingham (the original one in the UK) and a slate cottage within stone-throwing distance of England's largest lake. She shuttles between the two so often it makes her head spin, which might explain the rather breathless style of her writing, but she hopes to be settled in Cumbria by the end of the year.
You can find examples of Fiona's work, as well as details of all her books and stories, at her website: www.fiona-glass.com.

Question: What would you recommend for insomnia?
I have candida, hypoglycemia and mercury toxicity.
I bought the Insight CD and Moor Mud. The Insight CD may not be working because i am using the wrong title. I started with the first one. The moor mud is messy since I don't have a bathtub. I would like to use the Insight CD since it is easy to use.
Recommendations for Insomnia related to Candida, Hypoglycemia and Mercury Toxicity by Dr Ben:
Hello -
Sorry to hear that you are not sleeping well.
Given that you have three significant health concerns, I believe they all need to be addressed in order to achieve proper sleep.
The Moor Mud is very effective when one has a bathtub, receives the moor mud treatment professionally or has an small area on the body that needs relief which can be achieved by a local pack of moor mud. Without proper training or knowing how to apply moor mud topically, I do not recommend it. If you do get a bath or visit a friend's house with a bath, I do recommend it espec...

"Technosaurus" makes Tech Namesake
By: Julie Musgrave
Updated: June 18, 2008
Within the grounds of Texas Tech, there's a discovery that sheds a little light on what life was like in

Named in honor of Tech, fossils of what paleontologists have named 'Technosaurus' was found in Post, and it's now making a major difference at the
"Well, I mean it was something very exciting for the museum, to come up with such a unique specimen as Technosaurus, said Mueller. "There hadn't been any animal similar to that in
Right now the museum only has a jawbone. They've found enough of the Technosaurus to piece together what they think it would look like, but paleontologists aren't giving up on the full picture just yet.
"We're always looking for parts of anything," said Mueller. "We just look for any reptiles, we just hope that one of them might be Technosaurus in the future."
And along with Technosaurus, the 'Postosucchus' is also another major find. It was named after the city of

Mueller says the two are missing a structural part that would classify them as dinosaurs. This fact is the main reason why not very many
"Well, everybody loves dinosaurs, Mueller said. "And everybody gets excited about dinosaurs. A little lizard that's 3 foot long doesn't attract a great deal of attention except to the paleontology community."
If you would like to check these two for yourself, admission to the museum is free and it's located right on Tech's campus.

Expect things to be a little different around ASW early in December. A number of distinguished guest authors will be taking my place for about a week, which will have the benefit of raising the quality of the prose for a few days. At the same time the store will indeed be open (you will know when the advertising appears on the site), with the caveat that we have had a setback with the design so the presentation will be less than the standard to which I aspire. The products are of course unaffected.
With luck, ASW itself should be back to normal by December 10.

Symptoms of low thyroid hormones often include depression and fatigue; however, very few people with depression have their thyroid hormones checked.
The thyroid, a major part of the body's endocrine system, mainly regulates the heart and respiratory rates by sending out messenger hormones. Located around the voice box and windpipe (larynx and trachea, respectively), the thyroid produces the hormones T4 (thyroxine) and T3 (triiodothyronine). Every cell in the body depends upon adequate levels of these hormones. Too little of these messenger hormones result in hypothyroidism. When too much is produced, the result is hyperthyroidism.
Hypothyroidism is linked to depression and fatigue among other symptoms. It's important to note that even a small thyroid hormone imbalance can set the stage for depression. But luckily, patients often emerge from depression and regain their energy when hypothyroidism is treated.
Lesser Known Symptoms of Hypothyroidism
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Memory and concentration problems
- Low libido
- Fatigue
Because symptoms of hypothyroidism can seem vague and unrelated, as many as 50% of people who have this condition are never diagnosed. In addition, the test most commonly used to diagnose thyroid imbalances—the TSH, or thyroid-stimulating hormone test is often inaccurate.
In The Breakthrough Depression Solution, I explain why tests measuring T3 and T4 levels in the blood provide much greater accuracy than the TSH test in diagnosing hypothyroidism.
I recommend that anyone who suffers from depression have their T3 and T4 levels checked and corrected, if necessary. If your thyroid hormones are too low, you WILL feel renewed energy, better mental focus, and perhaps relief from depression once it is treated!
