First it was the Lake Erie Monsters, then the Cavaliers, and now the Indians giving Cleveland — sometimes coined "The Mistake by the Lake" — a definite winner's glow.
Bulls and Bears: 'Believe-land' having a Monster 2016 in team sports
Sorting out the major winners and losers of this week — with a bottom-line twist — in the world of sports:
Bulls of the Week
It's been a very good opening week to the season for Canadian-based franchises in the NHL, most notably the undefeated 4-0 Vancouver Canucks and the 4-1 Edmonton Oilers in the West plus the 3-0-1 Montreal Canadiens in the East. It will take some time, of course, to see whether that translates into playoff success after last spring's 0-for-7 debacle for Canadian NHL teams (an all-time low and the first time since 1970 that not a single Canadian team had qualified for the Stanley Cup tournament).
Our bulls of the week, however, are the Cleveland Indians and the "Believe-land" thing that the much-disparaged Lake Erie city has going on this year. After the NBA Cavaliers rode on LeBron James' coattails to break the city's 52-year major league championship drought last spring (just weeks after the Lake Erie Monsters brought Cleveland a Calder Cup American Hockey League title — the team has since changed its name to the Cleveland Monsters), baseball's Indians are in the World Series for the first time since 1997. They're looking to win for the first time since 1948.
Despite the bullish week, not everything is hunky dory for the AL Central winners, including ongoing controversy around their nickname, in general, and their Chief Wahoo mascot, in particular, and a per-game attendance average of 19,650 that was in the bottom three of all of Major League Baseball this past regular season.
Bears of the Week
It was never a good sign for Charlie Brown's friend Lucy when she had to mark her Thanksgiving pies down to five cents a slice … or less. It was just Peanuts creator Charles Schulz's way of reminding us of the power of supply and demand.
That pillar of Economics 101 reared its ugly head for the Toronto Argonauts and their local organizing committee for the 2016 Grey Cup as they announced wide-ranging ticket discounts barely a month before the 104th edition of the CFL championship game. It was a reflection of the low demand for the CFL in the country's largest media market — at least at the exorbitant premium prices originally conceived of for the first-ever Grey Cup to be played at BMO Field — despite the low supply of 35,000 seats at the expanded home of the Argos and Toronto FC.
Yet even more bearish this week is the NFL for its poorest season of TV ratings in years — at least in prime time. The biggest casualties have been Monday Night Football (with audiences down as low as eight million from last year's early-season highs of 14.4 million), Sunday Night Football (down to a low of 13.6 million from a 2015 high of 26.8 million) and the relatively new concept of Thursday Night Football.
The overall drop of 11 per cent in NFL audiences this year is explained in part by the typical dip that takes place in years of U.S. presidential elections, likely especially pronounced in this cycle of reality TV Trump-style. That's why it'll take the NFL TV numbers after Nov. 8 to have a better handle on the other contributing factors, ranging from bad matchups and potentially too many prime-time matchups, to Deflategate and the Colin Kaepernick-inspired anthem protests, along with one factor that will only continue to grow: the number of younger fans opting to watch by streaming to their smart phones or tablets.
Listen to The Sport Market on TSN 1040 AM Saturdays, 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. Bulls & Bears airs at 9 a.m., followed by Weekend Extra with Sun Sports at 9:30 a.m.

I go from small islands to a big island. Exposition organised by Glenys Mann opened in July in the Warwick Gallery Australia before touring. Each artist has created works inspired by a photograph that features a small empty glass bottle with remnants of the substance it contains and a weathered label tied with string. More than a message in a bottle?

Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
The Light Has Come Part 2 - Resist or Revere
If you at some point in your life, when you were younger, or two years ago, or 20 years ago; if at some point in your life, you prayed a prayer: "Lord Jesus come into my heart or I want to become a Christian or God forgive me of my sin." And you entered into any kind of relationship with God.
And then as time went by, you just kind of wandered away.
You may have had a bad church experience or your family moved and you just never went back to church or maybe you went to college and you just quit believing. Maybe you just drifted away from your faith. Or there was some tragedy that happened to you and you prayed and prayed and prayed and God didn't answer your prayer.
If any of this is true of you, would you consider coming back to church one more time? If so, we want to invite you to join us this Sunday at Next Level Church. 9:30a or 11:00a
We are a church that, not only understands how you feel, we are a church made up of people just like you. And we want to show you what changed our minds and hearts.

Planned Parenthood Seeks Injunction to Protect STD Prevention Programs
For Immediate Release: Jan. 30, 2014
MEMPHIS, TN – This morning Planned Parenthood Greater Memphis Region and Planned Parenthood Middle and East Tennessee filed suit against the Tennessee Department of Health in federal district court to restore preventive care funding under the HIV Prevention Services Grant program and the Syphilis Elimination Grant program.
Planned Parenthood affiliates won funding for community education and health services work in these programs in August 2011 following a competitive bidding process. In December 2011, the grant contracts to both Planned Parenthood Greater Memphis Region (PPGMR) and Planned Parenthood of Middle and East Tennessee (PPMET) were dropped with no reason given after they were approved and without identifying a qualified provider to meet the need left by the elimination of Planned Parenthood from these prevention programs.
"We take our commitment to caring for the tens of thousands of Tennesseans who rely on us for a wide range of health care seriously. That is why we are asking the court to stop this politically motivated attack on the patients and community members who count on us," said Barry Chase, PPGMR's CEO. "Planned Parenthood is exceptionally equipped to provide HIV Prevention health care and education to the community, and because of that, we have repeatedly won competitive bids for funding under this critical program."
As evidenced by 10 years of positive reviews and annual contract renewals, PPGMR and PPMET have done an excellent job implementing these programs.
For example, PPGMR was the first organization in Memphis to begin rapid testing for HIV, and its HIV "Master Trainers" train more new HIV testers every year than any other agency in the area. Following a June 2011 site visit, the Department of Health's HIV Prevention Testing Program Director commended PPGMR's "dedication to HIV prevention and the community" and stated that he "look[ed] forward to working with Planned Parenthood in the future."
Similarly, PPMET's Education and Training department provides STD prevention education through relationships with more than 100 organizations, and is a primary source of training for professionals who educate youth on STD prevention and other issues. In 2011, PPMET exceeded the number of people it proposed to serve with a fixed grant amount by more than 1,000 individuals.
In the suit against the state, Planned Parenthood argues they were kicked out of the HIV and syphilis elimination programs for providing comprehensive women's health care—a violation of federal law and the constitutional rights of Planned Parenthood. In 2011, 17,698 women, men and teens relied on Planned Parenthood's nonprofit health centers in communities throughout Tennessee for a wide range of quality, affordable health care services including annual exams, birth control counseling and care, reproductive cancer screenings, STD prevention and treatment and abortion care. One in five American women has relied on Planned Parenthood at some point in her life. Planned Parenthood has been operating in Tennessee for more than 75 years.
"Our work is about empowering young people with the skills they need to make healthy decisions," said Elokin CaPece, Director of Education at PPGMR. "This loss of funding will put thousands of women, men, and at-risk teens who look to Planned Parenthood for life-saving health care and accurate health information."
Planned Parenthood Greater Memphis Region and Planned Parenthood Middle and East Tennessee are represented by attorneys from Arnold &Porter, Baker Donelson,and Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
Planned Parenthood Greater Memphis Region (PPGMR), founded in 1938, is an affiliate of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. PPGMR's mission is to ensure broad public access to reproductive and related health care through clinic services, education, advocacy and community partnerships in serving 42 counties in West Tennessee, North Mississippi and East Arkansas.

|Avocado appetizer at Ananda
We ate off the "soft opening" menu Monday night, and we particularly enjoyed some dishes that we had never seen before. An appetizer salad of cucumber, avocado and herbs was the star of the meal. Then the cardamon-kissed desserts stole the show at the end.
|The shrimp entree
Ananda is one of the prettier spots for dinner. You can still hear traffic off Maple Lawn Boulevard, but the dining room with open walls makes for a beautiful spot, complete with white tablecloths and a Monday night show by a baby bunny on the grass outside. It's nice enough for a date, but completely friendly to the kids who have been eating when we visited.
This is an ambitious kitchen. The dal and the raita were just side dishes in our meal, but they were intensely flavorful. Great cooks use Indian spices and herbs in a way that I have never mastered at home, and they're paying attention to those details even in the side dishes. They hit similar successes in the chickpea entree and in our desserts -- a house-made ice cream and a rice pudding.
But Ananda stands out because they're pushing the offerings of local Indian restaurants. I have said for years that I'd love specials or seasonal dishes because several of our Indian kitchens are among the most-inspired in town. Ananda's avocado salad -- fresh vegetables, dressed beautifully and served with the crunch of a papadum -- was a revelation. Simultaneously Indian, but new to us.
|The chickpea entree
Overall, this is a fun place to check out. People are loyal to their Indian favorites because they're among the deepest cuisines in Howard County. We happily alternate between the curries at Royal Taj or House of India and the dosas and south Indian food at Mango Grove. Ananda could create its own niche -- the same white tablecloth feel of Royal Taj, but a bar for cocktails and a menu that offers slightly different tricks.
Ananda is on Maple Lawn Boulevard just south of Johns Hopkins Road. They don't have a sign yet, but they're across the parking lot from a Suntrust. Ananda joins a scene with five established Indian restaurants in Columbia -- House of India, Mango Grove, Royal Taj, Flavors of India, and Nepalese-Indian Curry & Kabob -- plus the new Chutney that replaces Akbar's and the quick service Tandoor Grill on Johns Hopkins Road.

"Zombies no, banshees neither, but shades, spectres, and doppelgangers are OK."
A response by "im pooping" in the Something Awful.com forums to the question "Would you have sex with a zombie or a ghost?"
OK, I may not be the greatest sculptor around, but it feels like my skills are starting to improve, even if ever so slightly. Zombies are one of those miniatures you can never have enough of. There's always this still silent whisper in the back of my mind saying "you should learn how to cast a mold and mass produce this stuff." But then I wouldn't have all these one of a kind game pieces would I? It would sort of put it in the category of "Limited Edition", but I digress.
It has been a few months since I mixed up a batch of green stuff, so I wanted to ease back in to it with a couple of simple projects. You never just sculpt one thing unless you have incredible patience since it takes so long to cure after each new application, so I made a couple of intellect devourers on the side, which I'll be posting here shortly.
This poor guy is actually the first anthropomorphic (human like) mini I sculpted entirely from Green Stuff aka. Kneaditite. I love this medium, even if many don't use it for the whole sculpt anymore. It just has the right amount of stickiness and spreads so easily. I'm able to come up with better looking proportions without as much effort, and it takes an infinite amount of detail.
If there's one lesson that got reinforced in this sculpt, it's the need to make a "manikin" head or a blank head that's a tad smaller than the finished look and letting that cure, so you can apply putty and sculpt on it without deforming the basic head shape. I think I sculpted the head and face twice before I remembered that technique.
Now to fix a few details, get some paint on him, and base him. He'll be all set to shamble after some players for those nice juicy brains!

If you live in another part of the world you may not have heard, and admittedly may not care, about the marmite shortage in New Zealand. The NZ marmite factory was knocked out of action when the Christchurch earthquake struck last year and supplies of our beloved marmite have now run dry. A friend of mine named it Marmageddon which is pretty accurate if you ask me. Check out this ad, it's hilarious. The guy is an ex NZ rugby coach and Buck was a popular player who had a campaign started called 'Bring back buck' when he left the team.
So if you've never heard of it marmite is something most kiwi kids grew up on and we have very fond feelings for the black stuff. If you were from overseas and met marmite you may not love it so much.
This black savoury yeast spread is not pretty, and although i love it, i have to admit it is probably an acquired taste. Amanda Palmer, a musician from America, called it sadness in a jar and even has a song about it - Vegemite - the black death. (Vegemite is a similar but inferior product). People who eat marmite are very loyal to thier version!
The funny thing about the marmite shortage is the lengths people go to to get it. It is selling online for hundreds of dollars a jar! Me? i resorted to my old tactics of bribing family members. I must say though i did have to laugh when my nephew from out of town dropped by with a marmite delivery on his way through, and my niece mailed me single serve sachets of it from her work. Lol desperate much? At this rate i may just make it till July without having to resort to the evil's of vegemite.
Stay Strong New Zealand!!

When Alex, now a successful photographer, comes to work in London, Anna offers to put him up, and is astounded to discover that the small, geeky boy she remembers is now tall, broad-shouldered and gorgeous.

Then Alex has to return to Paris to oversee the hanging of his photographs in an exhibition, and invites Anna to accompany him so that he can show her the city he adores...

I'm a little drunk, but that won't stop me from using WordPress.
I don't know what's going to happen over the last two months of the season—Kerry Wood's blister might turn out to be a space alien (a smaller version of the thing in the guy's chest in Total Recall), rendering him done for the season; the Ryan Dempster Fluke Train might (will?) derail; Rich Harden might (will?) get hurt—but right now, at this moment, the Cubs could beat anybody, and the Brewers look like a bunch of petulant children.

A Swansea couple have been slammed by a judge for their "animalistic lust" and turning their car into a "human zoo" after they were caught having oral sex in a McDonald's car park. The details of the public display were laid bare before the Swansea court as Lisa Gray, 28 and Rhys Higgins, 24, were sentenced to four months in jail, suspended for 12 months, after being found guilty of committing a lewd or obscene act.
Gray, a mother of one, was seen poking her feet out of the driver's side window as she performed oral sex at 4.30am in the fast food restaurant's car park. Staff who alerted authorities stood just feet away as the couple, believed to be intoxicated, kissed and embraced as they waited outside the collection window.
The prosecution said: "Gray put her hands into Higgins lap just yards away from staff. She received encouragement from Mr Higgins to perform a sex act. The public display was caught in a 20-minute CCTV video at the scene, the Daily Mirror reported.
In her defence, Gray claimed an ashtray had spilled cigarette ends in the footwell of her car and she was on the floor trying to pick them up.
Judge Paul Thomas QC said: "Your animalistic lust led to two of you to lose any shred of dignity and self-respect. The two of you turned yourself and your car into a human zoo.
"Your act led to the disgust and horror of staff who had been a matter of feet away from what you were doing. It wasn't just something that happened in the spur of the moment as it carried on for 20 minutes."
The pair had previously admitted the charges against them and were released on bail a month ago. Gray has subsequently been banned from going out at night.
The Swansea couple were not the only pair from the Welsh city to be caught having oral sex in public. Lisanne Beck, 47 and Simon Murphy, 48, were fined £1,000 each after they engaged in the sex act in crowd at a Hyde Park gig in September 2014. One onlooker filmed the event.

ApNano Materials, Inc. a provider of nanotechnology-based
products, has announced that the pan-European FOREMOST consortium has
completed the development of its first composite coating, based on ApNano
Materials' nanoparticles (inorganic fullerenes - IF).
The new coating is being considered for plating advanced
parts by some of FOREMOST partners and other industrial firms, to achieve
improved efficiency, reduced emission, and extended equipment lifetimes
in harsh conditions. The coating developed by FOREMOST has better lubricating
properties than several commercially available ones tested under the same
conditions, lasting tens of thousands cycles longer.
The innovative coating was introduced in a meeting of
the scientific and executive committee of FOREMOST (Fullerene-based Opportunities
for Robust Engineering: Making Optimized Surfaces for Tribology), held
in Israel in February.
"We are proud that this distinguished pan-European
consortium has introduced the new coating, based on our technology, which
will contribute to the global efforts to save energy and reduce pollution,"
said Dr. Menachem Genut, President and CEO of ApNano Materials.
"The achievement of the FOREMOST consortium, and
the fact that its members include top European manufacturers, further
demonstrate the commercial potential of our technology," said Aharon
Feuerstein, co-Founder, Chairman and CFO of ApNano Materials.

Rohit-Rahul stamp: Virginal innocence
The Rohit Gandhi-Rahul Khanna line celebrates the happy and carefree days of innocence, writes Sidhi Chadha.Pics | Download | Sizzlers | Schedule | Styleindia Updated: Sep 02, 2006 10:46 IST
"Where the land lies in another world,
Unkempt and untouched.
Where time abides in another girl"
These lines seemed to be the underlying message behind Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna's Spring-Summer '07 line.
A pristine white set-up with porcelain tea cups, white roses and Dutch dolls in the background, the show emphasised the virginal innocence of a girl.
Feminine to the core, the designer duo's line screamed of happy, carefree childhood days. The collection consisted of shirt dresses, balloon knee-length skirts, blouson tops, doll dresses, boleros, shrugs and belted tops. Emphasis of the line was definitely on the dresses which formed major part of the collection. Colour palette was restricted to white, beige, porcelain blue and grey.
Use of sheer fabrics like chiffon and silk made the separates look girlish yet chic. Though the silhouettes had a western feel to it, they were simple with intricate detailing and hand embroidery.
Use of minimal make-up on models also supported the idea of purity and innocence.
Something for men too!
Men don't get disappointed. The designer-duo had in store some really classy embroidered jackets and shirts in navy blue and ivory white for guys.
Can you wear this line?
Definitely, the clothes were stylish, chic and perfect for as evening-wear. In fact, you can grab the designer duo's line for anything between Rs 1000 to Rs 10000.
Our take
The designer duo had beautifully brought out the feminine innocence through his clothes. Unlike last time where Rahul-Rohit's collection had loads of swarovski and embellishments, this time they preferred to keep it simple. Bingo to that!
Spotted: Navin Ansal, AD Singh, Tina Sachdeva, Feroz Gujral, JJ Valaya.

Jimmy McIlroy to receive MBE at Burnley's Turf Moor
Most people would think it was fitting that a footballer known as the Prince of Inside Forwards would receive his MBE at Buckingham Palace.
But as Burnley legend Jimmy McIlroy approaches 80 years of age he has decided to turn heads with a neat body swerve one more time.
For instead of meeting royalty in London this Saturday, McIlroy will receive his honour at the Lancashire club's home ground, Turf Moor, from the Queen's representative in the county.
The ceremony will take place prior to Burnley's opening fixture of the season against Watford and the former Northern Ireland international outlined his reasons for giving the palace a bye-ball.
"It seems a long journey down to London and then from London up to the palace," he said.
"I was allowed three guests.
"Well I have three grandchildren, a son and a daughter and it would have started a war if I had attended.
"The former goalkeeper Harry Gregg rang me to say it would be the most boring day of my life, but then the former Belfast Telegraph Sports Editor Malcolm Brodie rang me to say it would be the best day of my life.
"When I look back I am just amazed at the way the people and the fans of Burnley have treated me and I want them to be a part of it, here is an honour and I want to share it with them."
Burnley have said they are "humbled" to get the chance to mark the latest achievement of the man who made nearly 500 appearances for the club and helped inspire them to their greatest triumph, the 1960 league championship.
He has the freedom of the borough and a stand at Turf Moor is named after him, so his credentials as a member of the Burnley empire are not in doubt.
In 1950, as a teenager from Ballyskeagh in County Antrim, he joined the club for £8,000 following impressive performances with Irish League side Glentoran.
Ironically they could have purchased him for £10 if they had spotted his potential in a game a year earlier and McIlroy believes the signing may have been illegal as it happened on a Sunday morning.
"After a game with Glentoran, I went to the boxing at the Ulster Hall in Belfast on Saturday night and then got the last bus home," he said.
"As I walked from Lambeg to Ballyskeagh, one of my sisters met me on a bike and told me the people from Burnley were in the house wanting me to sign.
"So I grabbed the bike and by the time I got there it was after midnight, I gather it was illegal to sign on a Sunday in those days."
He admits to being taken aback by his surroundings when he first arrived in Burnley, but was soon won over by the people's warmth.
However, one encounter with a Burnley fan still sticks in the mind.
He said: "I remember one day I was at a bowling green with a friend just after I had joined and this old fella came closer to us and said 'I've been listening to you lads talking, you're Irish aren't you?'
"He said we have got a youngster at Turf Moor he's called McIlroy, we thought he was something special, but he is not going to make it."
McIlroy, named among the football league's top 100 players on its centenary, still speaks with fondness of his 13 years in claret and blue.
He picks out the league title win, which was secured at Manchester City, as particularly special.
"The journey back to Burnley from Manchester was unbelievable, we were all in heaven," he said.
"In the fifties and early sixties, Burnley had a team in which every player could have got his place on any team in England."
His acclaim at Burnley dovetailed with his significant contribution on the international front where he starred with the likes of Danny Blanchflower and Billy Bingham as Northern Ireland reached the 1958 World Cup quarter-finals in Sweden.
He was quick to hail the magnificent team spirit of that side which was fuelled by the passion of coach Peter Doherty.
"Northern Ireland had some outstanding players and Peter inspired us," he added.
"In fact when he gave a team talk before we went out if he had said to us 'will you strangle him?' I would have done it he had us worked up so much."
McIlroy is still baffled by his exit from Burnley in 1963, he was sold to Stoke City by the then chairman Bob Lord, a decision which still reverberates in the town.
"I remember the morning the manager Harry Potts told me he was putting me on the transfer list and I asked why?
"He said you haven't been turning it on these last couple of weeks, so I said 'why the blazes didn't you drop me?'
Lionel Messi
"He looked astonished and said 'don't be silly you don't drop players of your calibre'."
After Stoke, he had a spell in management under chairman Ken Bates at Oldham and then Bolton, but found it wasn't for him.
He is amazed at the thousands of pounds earned a week by today's footballers and highlighted Barcelona's Lionel Messi as one of the few whose skill provides a window on the past.
"I don't understand the game now, a team can make up to 20 passes and yet haven't gained a yard, sadly dribbling is a lost art," he said.
McIlroy made no more than £80 a week in his prime as a footballer and after that career finished he returned to his teenage trade as a bricklayer before serving as a journalist for many years.
Indeed, his pleasure in a job well done has never been far from his mind.
"I loved bricklaying, because I felt I was creating something," he said.
"I remember after an international game at Windsor Park in Belfast going on a bus past these houses that I had helped to build near the Finaghy area.
"I had this feeling of pride that these houses will still be standing long after I'm gone."

Steven Emberton and Deluxx Digital
Isn't it great to simply just look at lovely pictures every now and then? It always relaxes my rather tired eyes.
These images, shot by Steven Emberton, are perfect examples of this. They remind me of oil paintings rather than digital photography, the kind of out of focus, streaky treatments on them make my brain happy.
Also, how lovely are the clothes? I pretty much want everything featured in this shoot in my wardrobe.
To see more of Steven's work visit his website. I thoroughly suggest you check out Deluxx Digital too as it's a little bit awesome.
Check out my ebay shop for some vintage treats on the cheap and help me actually fit things in my wardrobe!
The competition will be up tomorrow! There's some exciting prizes so make sure to check back tomorrow morning!

Hey ya'll! Jenn here again dropping by to share a little bit of Thanksgiving inspiration for you. Last one before I dive into Christmas projects!
Today I am sharing a card I created using the Tall Stamptangle Pumpkin from the JFF Shop.
I love large stamps like this. It makes it easy to make up a quick card using it as the focal point!
I began be stamping my pumpkin on Arches Cold Press Watercolor Paper, and heat embossing with Ranger Super Fine Black embossing powder. I used my Zig Clean Color markers to do some quick watercoloring. Once I was happy with the colors I set it aside to dry.
I love the look of the raised black embossing powder against the vivid yellows and oranges!
Next, I used some black fun foam to cut out the word Thankful with one of my dies and added a bit of Wink of Stella to give it a little sparkle. I adhered it to the bottom of my panel. I mounted my panel onto a yellow A2 card base that I had sponged with some Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I added 2 small strips of burlap on opposite corners of the card for some extra flair.
I love how quick and simple this card was to create. Some quick coloring and a couple embellishments and voila! Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
For more details and to get a ful list of supplies I used pop on over to my blog!
Thanks so much for stopping by today and have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!!

The Blue Bird of Happiness resides at Dream Come True Farm
I have been watching these amazing blue birds from my window and deck for weeks. Today there was quite a bit of activity. I believe we have baby blue birds! Papa Blue Bird was chasing any birds that came around within 10 feet of his home. Both Mama and Papa were flying in and out of the house all morning, then Mama went inside and didn't come out. I watched for hours in amazement of their ritual. The wonders of nature is so awesome. I feel blessed that this family of blue birds have chosen Dream Come True Farm to live on. We will sure do our best to protect them. Happy Mother' Day Mama Blue Bird and to all Mom's!

Just as I Afro-damus, predicted, "race" will be the word in 2010. Ah, liberal hypocrisy has made its appearance for the shiny new year as well. From CBS.com:
Obama Effigy Hung in Georgia Town
Large Black Doll on Noose Reportedly had Sign Bearing President's Name in Jimmy Carter's Hometown
(CBS) The Secret Service is investigating after an effigy of President Obama was found hanging in the hometown of former President Jimmy Carter.
It was a disturbing reminder of another era, reports Tara Mergener of CBS News affiliate WALB-TV; a large black doll hanging by a noose from a building on main street.
It appeared right in front of a red white and blue sign that says, "Plains, Georgia. Home of Jimmy Carter our 39th president. According to a witness, the effigy had President Obama's name on it.
Local residents worry this incident will give their town a bad name. But at least one prominent African American scholar says he's far from surprised.
"I think there's this notion that we're in a post-racial period in America because of the election of the first African American president," said Dr. Anthony Samad, an associate professor of African American studies. "However, this president has received more death threats than any other president in the history of America."
The effigy was removed quickly but the image may remain in people's minds for some time.
What's the fuss all about? After all isn't this just freedom of expression? Isn't it "art"? Call me insensitive but I am just taking my cues from the liberals that said Chad Morrisette was expressing his right to freedom of expression when he hung a political Halloween effigy of then GOP VP Candidate Gov. Sarah Palin . Sarah Palin was just some gun toting female and even worse a Republican. Nope, no problem here.
The overlapping preoccupation liberals have with expressing freedom of speech and fighting racism and hate crimes seems to have come upon a stumbling block. My mother always used an expression that I hated but in adulthood I learned that it is very true…You can't have your cake and eat it too. The fight against racism, sexism, hate crimes etc will never be taken seriously unless the liberals cease the dynamics of inequality and hatred in the way they approach and define such situations. Take for instance the Rush Limbaugh chest pain drama which occurred on New Year's Eve. Wikipedia, a site which is more liberal than not, declared the conservative radio talk show host dead before he was even ….dead:
Rush Limbaugh accidentally declared dead by Wikipedia
December 31, 8:30 AMDallas TV Examiner-Matt Carter
Rush Limbaugh was hospitalized on Wednesday for "chest pains" in Hawaii, but the controversial radio host (who also had a syndicated TV show at one point) is not dead contrary to a post made by Wikipedia early Thursday morning. The commentator's page was edited briefly to say that December 30, 2009 was the day of his death, but it has since been changed back to say that he is alive and recovering.
Rush Limbaugh has of course received his share of criticism in 2009, including a failed bid to be a part-owner of the St. Louis Rams. In addition, many of comments geared towards race has lead to mass criticism from numerous media outlets.
The mistake on Wikipedia can't really be blamed on the site; rather, it was probably just done by someone trying to make a joke or asserting the power of free speech (even when it's factually incorrect) over the internet.
If you saw some of the comments that I saw coming out of some of the liberals mouths, you would think that liberals were not so kind and "open-minded". Comments ranged from "die, Rush, die" to "God willed this." Then you have You Tube Videos like this:
The hypocrisy is evident.
Had the comments and videos been about Barack Obama, these people would have been racists. If the effigy was Sarah Palin, George Bush, or Rush Limbaugh these people would be expressing freedom of speech. Got it! Stay classy liberals.
Autographed Letter Signed,

Notes, Domino Take StageBy Dennis Callaghan | Print
Desktop-as-a-Service Designed for Any Cloud ? Nutanix Frame
IBM is expected to launch a major new release of its flagship Lotus Notes and Domino messaging and collaboration platform at its Lotusphere conference next week.
IBM is expected to launch a major new release of its flagship Lotus Notes and Domino messaging and collaboration platform at its Lotusphere conference next week. The release strengthens the ties between Domino and the next-generation Workplace platform.
Workplace has been the focus of the last three Lotusphere events, but the big news next week will be the release of Notes and Domino 7, the first new-version release of the platform since October 2002.
Richard Schwartz, president of IBM business partner RHS Consulting Inc. and a Domino developer, said this Lotusphere will be the most important event for IBM's Lotus Software division since Lotuswhen it was an independent companydebuted Notes 4 at the show 10 years ago. "That was the moment when everyone took notice of Notes as a serious contender at the enterprise level for collaboration," said Schwartz in Nashua, N.H. "But then the IBM acquisition happened, and not too long after that, it became apparent that parts of IBM had some serious misconceptions about Notes and Domino's capability to keep up with industry trends.
"Notes and Domino grew phenomenally, but IBM almost seemed to be in denial of it. At this year's conference, we're going to see IBM come to terms with the fact that they underestimated the strengths of Notes and Domino," Schwartz said.
Click here to read about development tools for Workplace.
Notes and Domino 7 will feature deeper ties with Workplace. Chief among the new features in this version, which is expected to be released next quarter, is support for the DB2 relational data store, which will be another data storage option for Domino alongside the existing NSF (Notes Storage Facility) data store.
The update will provide Domino with an integrated data store for structured and unstructured data as well as a shared data store with Workplace, which was built from the beginning with DB2 as its data store.
On the client side, Notes applications in this release will be able to run within the Workplace client as Eclipse plug-ins, marking the beginning of a client integration that's expected to continue to take shape in Notes Version 8, tentatively planned for sometime next year.
Customers that have already adopted Workplace will benefit from the tighter ties as well. IBM is expected to announce the Workplace Designer development tool, a product developed by many of the same software engineers who worked on the Domino Designer rapid application development tool, at the show.
Previously, development tools for Workplace were limited to Workplace Builder, a more basic tool used by nontechnical business users to create simple applications based on templates.
"They're going to show us that their new Workplace technology is getting better and more complete, but they're going to be very clear about the fact that Workplace builds on and complements the strengths of Notes and Domino, and that they're going to be committed to both for a long time to come," Schwartz said.

Besides Domino's re-emergence, Java and wireless capabilities are expected to be hot topics at the conference.
Although IBM officials were not available to comment, previously announced plans called for Domino 7 services to be exposed as Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition components and for Domino to serve as a Web services host for J2EE-based applications.Lining up Domino

When choosing new kitchen tables, there are several factors to consider:
Cost: The first and most important consideration is the price of the new piece. Farmhouse dining table start at about $ 250 and up to $ 2000, and more if the table you are looking for is a real artifact.
Size: Obviously the kitchen furniture should fit into the room you purchased for! Fortunately, farmhouse dining table are made in a wide range of sizes and shapes. If the traditional rectangular table does not fit the space available, do not worry.
Uses: Will the dining table be used for anything other than eating? Some people use the kitchen table to work on it, while some like to sit on their table relaxed. Select how many uses the table can contain before purchasing. Some farmhouse dining table have shelves under the upper deck, and some have a drawer to store things. If the stairs and cabinets are high in your kitchen, this may affect you from one purchase to another.
Appearance: Choose the tables that will add something to the look of your current kitchen design. Look for color matching or formatting compared to existing kitchen units. However, farmhouse kitchen tables do not believe in their good appearance in most kitchenware thanks to their rugged rural appearance.
All these factors are important when determining whether you will buy a kitchen set. Start by knowing how much you want to spend and then go to the overall appearance of the table. Consider what the table will use as well. Make sure you are happy with the above features and hope that your furniture set will serve as the cornerstone of the room for many years to come!

The common browsers like firefox, requires you to navigate the about:config and search for the tls security settings and set the max version to "4". Other browsers are similar to some degree of fashion.
Now validate using mail.google.com ( yes google is tls v1.3 supported )
vrs 1.2
If you mistakenly set the TLS v1.3 support , and with no fallback, you will start seeing the following connection errors for know operative websites.
So what's all the TALK about tls v1.3 ?
A Simpilifed handshake that speeds up the delivery of the 1st byte sent for a website. So speed is one major change.
2: Improvement over all and with ciphers from tls v1.2
So what the major issues that can come up ?
- it very new and needs experimentation and trials by the internet community to become comfortable with
- must existing systems don't have support for it
- most management interface for IT gear has no awareness of TLS v1.3
- most IT support staff from the network to security engineer, has no working knowledge of TLS much less for the latest version
- Various SSL deep inspection hardware can break
- some forward proxies if not update will break

Welcome to Perfect Picture Book Friday! I hope this post will be a help to those who love picture books and want to share them with their own children or those they teach.
Illustrated by: Lynne Avril
Dial Books for Young Readers 2012
Fiction for ages 4 to 8
Themes: honesty, kindness, friendship
Opening and brief synopsis:
Every cowgirl needs a blue ribbon. So when I heard the county fair was comin', I signed up.
From the jacket flap: There are games to play, animals to pet, and rides to go on. But, of course, Nellie Sue is really looking forward to the Bike Rodeo. She hopes that practicing will make her and her two-wheeled horse good enough to win against the reigning champion and Rodeo King, A.J. Pickett. But when a nearby goat gets loose and threatens to ruin A.J.'s turn, Nellie Sue knows that it's her job as an honest cowgirl to help out.
Why I like this book:
This is the third book about Nellie Sue and horse, Beauty. Really Beauty is her bicycle, but Nellie refers to everything like she is a cowgirl and she lives on a ranch. It is cute to see what she says and what the illustrator is really showing. (This is true in all her books.) For this book, I love that no matter how important Nellie wants to win the Bike Rodeo, she thinks of her friend first. It is a great lesson of friendship and thinking of others first.
A variety of Nellie Sue activities can be found on Rebecca Janni's website. Kids can act out the book on their own, just like Nellie Sue. Nellie Sue's imagination can spark theirs as well!
Perfect Picture Book Friday is a wonderful idea started by Susanna Leonard Hill. For other "Just Right" books and resources listed by theme and title, visit her blog.
And for those of you who missed it, check out my post from Monday where I'm giving away TWO middle grade books!

|Developed by
|Akregator developers
|Latest release
|1.2.5 / January 25th, 2007
|News Aggregator
Akregator a RSS news-feed reader made for the KDE desktop environment. It has been included in the KDEPIM package since KDE 3.4.
[edit] Features
RSS feeds can easily be added and feeds can be sorted in folders (categories). Feeds from one category can be shown as a list of entries as if they were one feed.
It's possible to search the headlines the titles all the entries in all the feeds it knows about.
There is no "overview" feature with a list of all or most of the RSS feeds available on the Internet, so you'll have to add feeds as you see them on websites (most sites do have some kind of RSS feed these days).
[edit] Buildt-in browser
Akregator allows you configure it to open the RSS news items in any installed browser. It also includes a tabbed browser which uses KHTML, which is basically like a in-framed built-in stripped-down Konqueror.
[edit] KDE "integration"
Many of the developers involved in both KDE and GNOME have some strange illusion that people somehow use those bloated piles of dung as their desktop environment. This makes these people add configuration settings from the desktop environments global configuraiton to their applications, and - sadly - Akregator is no different.
Settings such as proxy settings are taken from the global settings configured in KDE Control Center. (See Why global configuration options is a bad idea).

Nina wasn't overly friendly but she made up to it by signing a fans Seventeen Magazine cover with Nina on it. At the beginning Nina had come over to sign and only signed a few and skipped the 2 I wanted of her signed. Then she was leaving to go into the event when her rep/assistant made the guard go take over the Seventeen magazine cover.

Lawrence of Arabia (1962)
Perhaps the last, the greatest, and the most complex of all of the Hollywood epics, "Lawrence of Arabia" is David Lean's finest movie and also one of the best character studies available anywhere in cinematic history. It manages to make the desert look appealing, while glorifying the man who may not deserve the center stage. At its center is its titular figure who commands the screen, there is no scene that passes without his presence.
With this focused narrative, Lean's picture still manages to feel spectacular. There is no comparison of its contemporaries for how influential the movie was. "Lawrence of Arabia's" technological advancements seem less flashy in today's CGI obsessed culture, but the sight of a mirage appearing over the horizon as a figure materializes is just as impressive as anything Michael Bay can do. The film's wide scope, the large angles and panoramic views of nature make "Lawrence" breath takingly beautiful, if a little dated.
There's something about the Hollywood epics that make this genre well in the past. No one wants to sit through a four hour movie anymore only to have history rehashed in colorful ways about characters that they may not be familiar with. Then again, those who say that film was catered for the critics are wrong....it was always a popular medium. So what am I trying to say?
This: watch "Lawrence of Arabia" as you would with any movie but expect the old epic style, and expect to be dazzled by it.
For as long as the movie is, there is not a scene wasted, nor a moment that goes by that feels unnecessary. Its plot movies along steadily and it never outstays its welcome. It is a class act in film making and in screen writing.
The movie concerns Lawrence (Peter O'Toole in his breakout role), a young officer who is sent into the deserts of Arabia to simply observe and then report back to headquarters after three months. After just entering the desert, Lawrence falls in love with the landscape and the way of life. He finds himself some measure of peace which he then decides to shatter by invading a neighboring city.
For a character study, you'll find that this film is the most frustrating. If you can successfully write an essay about Lawrence himself that leaves all questions answered, I will be immensely impressed. This is a character that has a moral high-ground rooted in a sense of masochism that frightens him. He is terrified by what he may become and at the end of the movie, we have to ask ourselves if he really did turn into that.
If "Gone With the Wind" was one of the first commercially successful movies that had a antihero at the screaming center of the drama, "Lawrence of Arabia" is the one that defied such easily explainable character quirks. He is ethereal, educated, wily, and emotionally vulnerable.
As such a complicated character would demand, Peter O'Toole is nothing short of perfection. When we look back at Oscar history, it's always this movie that makes me wonder why O'Toole never won an acting Oscar...but I don't make the rules or give out the awards.
Lean's eye for the dramatic and epic do not go to waste here and it serves as a firm reminder that "Lawrence" will always have a place in Academy canon. There has never been a film like it, and it proves that the 60s gave way to amazing technological feats. What starts out in 1962 as a mirage on the edge of the horizon becomes a space opera in 1968 when "2001: A Space Odyssey" is released. The movies keep improving...
The story may be both too simple and too complex to put into words. "Lawrence of Arabia" follows the adventures of a man as he tries to bring freedom to a group of people while maneuvering considerable political red tape.
Is it perfect? Maybe as close as it could have been.
Is it timeless? I think so.
Beyond all of that, it is the perfect platform for one of film's best performances and a definition (now a redefinition) of the idea of "epic".
Score: ★★★★

Racing industry hopes California Chrome can boost its fortunes
June 6 - The U.S. horse racing industry could use a Triple Crown superstar to help pull it out of a slump, and they're looking at California Chrome to do just that at the Belmont Stakes on Saturday. Jillian Kitchener reports.
These men have high hopes of getting a return on their investment. They're part of a dwindling group still placing bets on horse racing. (SOUNDBITE) (English) DAVID GRENING, NEW YORK CORRESPONDENT, DAILY RACING FORM, SAYING: "I wouldn't say it's dying and I wouldn't necessarily say it's on life support. But it is ailing. I mean the interest in it isn't very high." Revenue and attendance at tracks around the country have been in decline for at least two decades. (SOUNDBITE) (English) CARL BENJAMIN, RACING FAN FROM NEW YORK, SAYING: "One time it used to be packed, years ago, in the eighties and nineties, but everything's going away slowly, slowly. (SOUNDBITE) (English) ERIC BISHOP, GENERAL MANAGER, FROST GIANT AND SUNRISE STABLES, SAYING: "We need some superstars. You need your Michael Jordans of the racing industry to get people's interest, and pique them to come out and enjoy the day." The industry could use a boost -- and they're looking at California Chrome for support as he gears up for the Belmont. A Triple Crown winner would create buzz -- hopefully translating to more bets. (SOUNDBITE) (English) MARTIN PANZA, SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT OF RACING OPERATIONS, THE NEW YORK RACING ASSOCIATION (NYRA), SAYING: "Horses like this (California Chrome) don't come out that often. He's truly a gifted horse -- very athletic and it will be a big boost for the industry. When you can get a 120,000 people out to Belmont Park, we're exposing a lot of people to the sport and the majesty of these horses running. So it's a positive thing." All eyes are on America's favorite horse as he readies for the $1.5 million prize on Saturday.

Hey everyone, it's Dawn, and it's my turn to introduce some brand new product! Remember, if you are just joining us, be sure to start at Day 1 to catch up. All of the products we've been sharing will be available for purchasing beginning December 5, 2016 at wplus9.com as well as many of your favorite retailers!
We're going cute today. But not too cute. A quirky-fun cute. That's right, it's the Winter edition of the Friends for all Seasons series - Friends for all Seasons: Winter stamp set and companion dies.
AVAILABLE December 5, 2016
I adore the Friends for all Seasons series illustrated by Stephany Zerbe. The winter edition features fun foxes and even a cute little snowman.
How cute are they? I wanted to turn this one into a sweet friend valentine. I started by stamping an all-over pattern in the background.
My 16 year has developed a love for my Copics and a lot of them are mysteriously dry! So, instead of coloring the images with a traditional coloring medium, I created my own stamps from fun foam. I knew I wanted to color their scarves, so I stamped my image onto a piece of fun foam and then trimmed out their scarves. I adhered that to my acrylic block, inked it up and then stamped as usual. Voila! Solid filler image stamps. BAM.
I stamped the snowman, another fox and the top hat, did the same fun foam stamp technique and then die cut them using their companion dies.
For a little interest, I created a faux shaker card. I'm going to be honest...I have very little patience for creating shaker cards. So instead, I just added little dots of Multi-Medium inside my negative circle space and glued a smattering of sequins down.
I totally could have kept that to myself and let you think it was an "actual" shaker...but I'm honest like that. LOL
Ok...now on to another cute, but-not-too-cute, valentine. The entire Friends for all Seasons series has so many great sentiments, I decided to put them to use. And this one might be my favorite of my projects from the new release products...and there's a lot of them.
I used several of the new December Release products on this one. I started by white heat embossing several phrases using the Whimsy Alpha onto Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Cardstock. Using the Misti stamping tool made this incredibly easy. I then inked over them using Tim Holtz distress ink in Spun Sugar, Festive Berries and Aged Mahogany.
I white heat embossed the sentiments "je t'aime", "smitten" and "everyone deserves a friend like you" onto black card stock. For the main sentiment I die cut the Painted Friend die cut by Simon Says Stamp in both black and white.
The upcoming Happy Gang stamps and die were perfect for creating my little friends. And of course, I had to use the dog and the cat! I stamped each one and then added the contrasting "details" by either double stamping in the same color or using a slightly darker ink color. You can see these on the side of the dogs head, under his arms and between the kitty's hands.
I added a heart behind the kitty's head using the double solid heart image from Friends for all Seasons: Winter. As a final finishing touch, I added some highlights to their eyes using a white gel pen.
And for my last card today - using the Whimsy Alpha and the Happy Gang sets together gave me an idea.
I have sat on the Happy Gang stamp set since last Spring and I was so excited to finally get to use it. These are the solid version of our Get Well Gang set. So if you liked those little guys, you'll really enjoy these as well.
I stamped and die cut the phrase "WISH BIG" using the Whimsy Alpha stamps and die. Then I replaced the "i" in "BIG" with the puppy from the Happy Gang set. I stamped and die cut the balloons, also from Happy Gang and added them across the top.
To create the background, I used a little Inkadinkado Stamp Masking Paper to create a star burst pattern and then inked it using PURE Color Dye Ink in Wild Mango.
To create the banner, I used the previously released Be Merry Companion Die, inked through it using Ocean Drive ink and then white embossed "Happy Birthday" from Happy Gang.
I hope you've enjoyed release week! Kelly will be here tomorrow with more inspiration for you, but for now...on to the fun stuff!

Next Episode of NYPD Blue is
A sequel to the original ABC series, NYPD Blue follows the son of Andy Sipowitz, Theo, who tries to earn his detective shield and work in the 15th squad while investigating the murder of his father.
The detectives investigate the shooting death of a man whose brother is a registered sex offender; and when Captain Fraker's trial gets underway, Sipowicz worries that his own testimony may have harmed the prosecution's case.
Sipowicz and Clark investigate the death of a transvestite whom a friend insists was having a relationship with a married man; a surgeon's hand is badly cut during a robbery; and Rodriguez testifies in the Fraker trial.
The detectives search for clues when a group of perpetrators torture a man for no apparent reason; a woman reports her husband as missing, but Sipowicz and Clark suspect she's not being completely forthcoming; and Fraker testifies in court.
The detectives investigate the strangulation death of a former porn star; a thirteen-year-old boy holds the key in implicating his father in his mother's murder; and the jury reaches a verdict in the Captain Fraker trial.
The detectives investigate a strangulation murder that may be tied to one of Diane Russell's cases; Russell consults a doctor when she discovers a lump in her breast; Medavoy and Jones investigate an arson linked to two boys.
Sipowicz, Russell, and Clark attempt to connect the murder of a young woman to two other killings; Medavoy and Jones investigate the shooting death of a mother whose children feared her.
A woman survives the serial killer's attack, and her account prompts the detectives to focus on Carlin, his partner, and a bodyguard; Medavoy and Jones investigate when an off-duty officer kills a man; and McDowell comforts Russell during a biopsy.
When another woman is murdered by the serial killer, the detectives arrest a suspect... and discover the killer's identity; and expecting a baby, Sipowicz and McDowell decide to get married.
Sipowicz and Clark search for two burglars who terrorized a retired cop and his wife; Medavoy and Jones assist an author who wrote a book on how to avoid paying income taxes; and Jones deals with Michael's father.
A man armed with a bomb walks into the station house and handcuffs himself to McDowell; unless the detectives release a Russian mobster from jail in one hour, the bomb will detonate.
When a Jewish jewelry-store owner is murdered, the detectives focus their investigation on two suspects: a Caucasian man who converted to Islam, and a rap star whose expensive jewelry turned out to be fake.
Sipowicz and Clark search for an African-American driver who fled the scene of a hit-and-run accident after unwittingly running over an Italian mobster's young daughter.
Sipowicz and Clark investigate the shooting death of a jogger who'd been having an affair with a police officer; and Medavoy and Jones search for answers when the body of a comedy club owner is found in the trunk of a stolen car.
A new detective, Stan Hatcher, joins the squad; the detectives investigate a shooting death that Hatcher believes is linked to a dispute between gang members; and a man insists that his young daughter has been kidnapped.
A kidnapping victim's startling statement clues Andy and John in on a serial sadist keeping women locked in a dungeon somewhere in New York. Meanwhile, a routine robbery investigation takes a saucy turn for Medavoy after he makes an unlikely connection with the 60-year-old victim.
Sipowicz searches for the truth when Hatcher is shot by a man who mistook him for a burglar; and a former pharmacist dies in a flophouse when someone fires a bullet into his room.
Andy's off-duty and slightly underhanded work to prove that Hatcher killed his own wife lands him a transfer out of the 15th precinct and into the Bellevue Morgue engineered by Detective Hatcher. Meanwhile, the squad is up to their whips and chains after a dominatrix is found murdered.
Haywood reopens an 18-year-old case that has Andy reliving a major mistake in his career. Meanwhile, Sipowicz and Clark investigate the death of a man whose brother was pursued by a bounty hunter. Elsewhere, Ortiz gets a new partner, Detective Kelly Ronson, who ends up lending an unusual hand during the hunt for the child an ex-con had to give up before going to prison.
A man's gunshot-induced amnesia causes Jones and Medavoy to concoct an unconventional way to nail his assailant. Meanwhile, a man Sipowicz put away twenty years ago for raping and murdering a 12-year-old girl goes free after DNA testing exonerates him, and Ortiz and Ronson bust a gruesome underground network pre-teen prostitution ring.
Andy and John approach Mrs Clifton for help with her daughter's murder. Jennifer turns up out of the blue, apparently off her meds. A man is shot, apparently over a church and a video tape.
Teacher David Lewis comes into the squad-room to talk about Cindy Clifton and a support group that he ran that she was a part of. Sipowicz and Clark let him go but send off some of his left behind chewing gum to DNA for testing. Jones goes to court as its the day when Michael is to testify against his father. Ortiz and Ronson go to the scene where tourist Ned Applebaum has been mugged and lost his wife's $35,000 necklace. Ortiz and Ronson eventually find out that Ned met a lady friend on the Internet and he was going to meet her in Little Italy when he was mugged. He was going to loan her the necklace so that she could use it as collateral for a loan for her sick child. The detectives get the PO Box number where Applebaum had sent previous gifts to his lady friend. Ortiz and Ronson go to the apartment of the owner of the PO Box. He is a day trader/con artist who they discover took advantage of Ned Applebaum. They get the necklace back and Ned is forgiven by his wife. Later, Gibson tells Sipowicz and Clark that David Lewis was found DOA in his apartment. They go to the scene and try to determine whether the death was a suicide or not. Sipowicz tries to decide how to proceed with the investigation of Lewis's death; both he and Clark believe that Brockhurst might be involved. Clark gets a call about Dr. Jennifer Devlin and goes to the hospital. The doctor tells her she needs to remain restrained for now, but he is allowed to see her as long as he doesn't loosen her restraints. Sipowicz finds Brockhurst and tells him of his theory that he killed David Lewis. Brockhurst doesn't admit to anything, but tells Sipowicz he is going to be able to sleep tonight now that the case is closed.
Sipowicz investigates a murder involving the victim's current husband and ex-husband; a longtime informant gives Ronson information about an illegal gun shipment, but the suspect's father is being followed by the FBI; Jones gets into a fight with Craig after he's acquitted of murder charges; and Sipowicz is the proud father of a baby boy.
