Fans have been waiting for a sequel to Xena: Warrior Princess since it's cancellation in 2001. With rumors flying around about a possible reboot by NBC, fans are curious to know whether this is true or not. Lucy Lawless, the original Princess Xena, said that if there indeed is a reboot in the making for Xena, she is unaware of it. However, this does not mean we should not expect one anytime soon. According to reports by EW, a writer has not been set for the script.
In the Television Critics Association's semi-annual press tour, Lawless talked about the possible new NBC venture, she said," There was a conversation they [Lawless' husband and one of the creators of Xena, and NBC] had a year ago, maybe longer,"
She said that neither she nor her husband Robert Tapert are involved. Lawless said, "If there's anything current going on, we're not involved — we being me, Rob, Sam," she said. "But they could be doing it without us, they have the right to, don't they? But we are not. I'd love to see it happen and I know that NBC wants to do it, but they're just trying to find a way and a time."
"When I read [the report], I thought somebody — either from the studio or the agency — went, 'Oh this is current,'" the 47year old actress added. "It's not current. I'd like it to be. I keep trying."
Lawless, who has been busy with movies and TV show appearances since Xena additionally said that she would be interested in reprising the role, however, she said she would want it on a smaller capacity, saying, "I would love to do a reboot getting Xena, Gabrielle [Renee O'Connor], Autolycus [Bruce Campbell] and Jox [Ted Raimi] back together, get that crew back together to solve some ridiculous problem. I'd love to do a TV movie or a movie, a limited thing."
Fans were expectant after Lawless also got together with her friend and co-star Renee O'Connor. O'Connor, who is now 44 years of age, starred as Gabrielle alongside Lawless in Xena: Warrior Princess. Lawless and O'Connor held a mini reunion as they smiled for a picture together. Lawless posted the picture on her Instagram account with the caption, "Still hanging with my gal #Reneeoconnor @reallucylawless #xena #gabrielle."
This left fans on twitter in a frenzy. Many wanted to know if they were planning a reboot together. However, Lawless had some less that exciting news for them, she posted a tweet the same day she talked about the possible reboot. She wrote: "Sorry, friends! news of a #Xena reboot is just a rumor. I'd love it to happen one day but it's still in the wishful thinking stage."
Lawless currently lives in New Zealand with her husband and three children.

Microsoft culls a huge 7,800 jobs globally, mostly from phone business
Microsoft has just announced that it is cutting a huge 7,800 jobs from its phone business, while it also writes off $7.6 billion in relation to its acquisition of Nokia's Devices and Services Division. Considering Microsoft paid $7.2 billion for Nokia's phone business last year, this is quite the check to write.
Satya Nadella, Microsoft CEO, explains: "We are moving from a strategy to grow a standalone phone business to a strategy to grow and create a vibrant Windows ecosystem including our first-party device family. In the near-term, we'll run a more effective and focused phone portfolio while retaining capability for long-term reinvention in mobility".
Keep in mind Nadella said back in April that there would be 18,000 job cuts in the next 12 months, these additional 7,800 job losses will add up to over 25,000 employees laid off by Microsoft in just over a 12-month period.

And the winner of the best young adult fiction of 2012:
The sheer volume of votes this novel got ahead of the others says a lot. 28.5 THOUSAND more than the 2nd place nominee.
turns out that this book can be observed in two ways: Either as a piece
of phenomenal written fiction with existentialist revolutions, or as a
strong teen's novel.
Here's the reason I love John Green, these are
the only novels I have come across that modern teens of today, written
by a modern writer of today, can read and not be forced to believe in an
unhealthy outlook on centering your life around your lover. John
Green maintains the importance of family, shows the strength of love
(even as teenagers), let's his characters make incorrect assumptions,
and allows an intellectual teen to relate to someone. Finally, in my
Teens all over the world have been given heroines and
heroes, as of late, that are strong, fast, and independent, but this is
the first book I've read in YA that gives them a mentally strong
character to cheer for.
I might gush over this book, simply because
this book is worth gushing over. As a mother myself, this is the type of
literature I'd want my children to read.
When it comes to The Fault in Our Stars?
Shut Up and Read It.

@50K ~ Romance/Suspense/Contemporary
Maddie wants to forget her years in captivity. She'd rather spend her time getting reacquainted with her parents and her sister, not to mention her cello-playing, beautiful boy next door and childhood best friend Wesley. But paint is everywhere, and tormenting shadows linger in every portrait she encounters.
When the yearly Art Showcase once again approaches, Maddie has the chance to win a scholarship and start planning a future far away from the horrors of her past. She knows she has to make a choice–confront her memories of The Painter and overcome her fear of the canvas, or give up painting forever.

Character Interview with Autumn Deacon
Autumn Deacon is Maddie's younger sister. She is, in many ways, the opposite of her older sibling, but she plays a vital part in keeping Maddie together, even if she doesn't know it (or at least doesn't let it show).
1. Can you tell us a little about yourself?
Sure! I'm Autumn Deacon. I'm thirteen, in the eighth grade, and I like dance and yoga. Um, I have one older sister, Maddie. Three years ago she went missing...but she's back now, which is perfect.
2. How did you feel when you discovered your sister had been found?
*Laughing* I didn't believe it. Like, it's funny. Until that moment, and after that moment, I always believed she was going to come back. But in that instant, I didn't. I couldn't believe it until I saw her in the hospital. I thought they'd got the wrong girl.
3. Your sister used to paint. Have you ever been interested in art?
Oh, no. Maddie's the artist in the family. I can't even draw a stick figure without messing something up. I guess I could learn, but I don't really want to. It's like, painting's for her, you know? I have my own hobbies.
4. Can you tell us about those hobbies?
Well, like I said, I like dance and yoga. Fitness of any kind, really. I want to have my own fitness studio someday. There's just something really great about breaking a sweat and moving till you're exhausted and sore all over, you know?
5. What's your earliest memory of you and your sister?
I was four, I think? So Maddie would have been, like, seven. And she made me sit inside for an hour so she could paint my picture. I squirmed the entire time, and she yelled at me the entire time. But when she was done she told me it was beautiful, and for the rest of the day I felt like a princess.
She framed that painting, and it hung on her wall for years. She's taken down all of her art now, but she still has that picture, somewhere.
6. Use ten words to describe yourself.
Ha! Just ten? Well, I'm Outgoing, and usually Excited. Wandering but not Lost (so...like Found?). Honest and Fun. Hyper, most of the time. Obnoxious, some of the time. Damaged all of the time, but Happy, too.
7. What's your idea of a perfect day?
My perfect day would be outside, in the sun, with lots and lots of activity. Yoga to start, then a run, some dance, and maybe a workout. I love the idea of only stopping to eat, and never worrying about cramps or dehydration. Endless energy, and a whole big group of people around to share it.
8. If you could have had your sister home for one single day during the length of her abduction, what would you have done?
I would have run. I would have taken her as far away as I could, so she wouldn't have had to go back. We would have run all day, and then, even if she had magically disappeared at the end of it, at least I would have run off some of my worries while she was with me.
9. Is there anything deceiving about you? Something people would be surprised to know?
Some people think I'm conceited or self-centered or whatever, but I'm not. I talk a lot, and I change the subject in serious conversations. Not because I'm bored, but because I know when people are, like, going too far, you know? When it's going to be too much, or when someone's going to start a fight. I don't like conflict, so I try really hard to avoid it. But not many people get that, and sometimes they think I don't care.
I do.
10. We'll finish with an easy one. What is your favourite colour?
Yellow. Like the sun, like flowers, like smiley faces. Yellow is bright and alive, and I love that.
"Hello, Maddie," Tim says, taking a sip from his Healing Expressions coffee cup. I'm glad he and Juliet call me Maddie instead of Madison, like Klara does. I've gone by Maddie since my days in preschool, and being called it here makes the office seem slightly less institutional.
Of course, it doesn't make this moment any less awful.
"H-hi," I stammer, my voice thin. My feet ache as I force them across the threshold. Tim prefers it if I close the door behind me, but I need to see my escape route. Shakily, I cross the room and sit on the bench along the wall of windows that look down over the parking lot. The cushions are soft, bright orange, and there are pink and green and blue throw pillows scattered along the seat. I grab the blue one, and hug it to my chest as I stare at the world on the free side of the glass panes.
It's a strange sensation, watching the world like this. In elementary school, at recess, I would sit by the fences backing the neighborhood houses. With my head tilted into the cool fall or warm spring breeze, I would close my eyes and picture the people in those houses: people not working, people working from home, people driving the streets or watering their lawns or relaxing in front of the TV, while I remained stuck at school for another several hours. I have the same thoughts now as I gaze over the parking lot, far out to the park, the townhouse complex, and the streets beyond. So many people sleeping, reading, shopping––all while I'm here, trapped behind a wall of glass.
It helps to keep my back to the easel. Slowly, the panic of my arrival subsides, and I take full gulping breaths until I've settled into muted unease.
"How are you feeling today, Maddie?" Tim asks. He remains seated. I get antsy if his six-foot-three inch body looms over me.
"I'm fine," I lie. I'm never fine. Not anymore. But declaring it is like stating the obvious.
"How's school?" I can hear a smile in his voice. I like Tim's voice, with its deep, quietly enthusiastic tone. I'm fairly certain I like Tim, too. Or at least I would, if the circumstances were different. If he didn't have the task of prying, of guiding me into frigid, infested waters every time we meet.
"It's fine," I say, shrugging my shoulders.
Tim's chair scrapes across the floor as he stands. I keep my eyes fixed on the parking lot outside. I've found Wesley's tiny van, and I watch it intently.
Tim approaches, sits on the bench a ways off. "Did you read any papers this week?"
"No." The tension I nearly shed on the ride over here is creeping back again. I hate therapy. I don't understand how digging into every unpleasant crevice of my subconscious is supposed to make my life easier.
"How about the news? Did you watch any?" Tim asks, even though I'm already shaking my head.
"Y-You know I didn't," I reply, and Tim breathes out, the resulting sound just short of a sigh.
"How many times have you had to avoid his picture?" he asks, and I squeeze the pillow until my fingers are white.
"S-Seventy … S-Seventy-two," I choke out.
It's become a habit keeping track of the number of times I stop myself from seeing him. When I go to the drugstore and see the papers lined in a hideous row. When the news comes on, and reporters rehash what happened.
In the beginning, it was far harder. There were articles all over, news stories, constant threats to my sanity. Five months on, most of my count comes from the personal attacks, the times I remember something, imagine something, and his face almost manages to push its way in.
"Good. An improvement on last week," Tim says, the pleasing smoothness of his voice giving the achievement a more respectable air than it deserves. Last week there were seventy-eight occurrences. Having six fewer episodes means nothing, except Tim is trying to be as positive as possible.
Plus, there's the phone call to consider. Last week might have been an improvement, but I'm certain my methods of diversion will fail to keep me from replaying the conversation I wasn't supposed to hear this morning.

This steak and quinoa salad recipe is spectacularly easy to toss together, especially if you have some cooked quinoa or even a smidgen of leftover steak in the fridge.
This steak and quinoa salad recipe can be tossed together with spectacular ease if you happen to have either leftover cooked quinoa or that extra smidgen of grilled steak already in the fridge. That said, it's still lovely and simple enough to make it from scratch without any hassle.–Renee Schettler Rossi
How To Keep Your Salad Low In Sugar
The author savvily suggests you opt for a whole-grain mustard that isn't honey-sweetened for this steak and quinoa salad as it ensures you can better adjust the sweetness of the vinaigrette when you whisk it up.
Steak and Quinoa Salad
- Quick Glance
- Serves 4
- For the whole-grain mustard vinaigrette
- 1/2 cup (118 ml) olive oil
- 1/2 cup (118 ml) walnut or neutral oil, such as canola or grapeseed
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) white or red wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) whole-grain mustard
- 2 teaspoons (8 ml) honey or agave syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon (3 g) fine sea salt, plus more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon (1 g) freshly ground black pepper
- For the quinoa salad
- 1 pound (454 g) flank or hanger steak (if using hanger steak, remove the center membrane)
- Fine sea salt
- Freshly cracked black pepper
- 2 teaspoons canola or vegetable oil
- 2/3 cup (118 g) uncooked quinoa
- 6 cups arugula (or other sturdy greens, such as escarole, frisee, or spinach)
- 4 carrots, peeled and shaved lengthwise with a vegetable peeler into ribbons
- 6 tablespoons (52 g) sunflower seeds, toasted if desired
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) whole-grain mustard vinaigrette
- Make the whole-grain mustard vinaigrette
- 1. Whisk together all the ingredients in a small bowl or shake them in a jar with a lid. Taste for seasoning and add more salt, if desired. You should have about 1 1/4 cups. (This can be made ahead and kept for up to 5 days in the refrigerator. As you go through the week, shake again to recombine the ingredients. If it loses some zing during storage, add a bit more mustard or vinegar to brighten it up.)
- Make the quinoa salad
- 2. Season the steak with fine sea salt and pepper. Let steak sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking.
- 3. Heat the oil in a 9- or 10-inch (22- or 25-cm) skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the steak to the skillet and cook, turning once, until browned on both sides and an instant-read thermometer registers 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare, 7 to 8 minutes total. Let steak rest on a cutting board for at least 10 minutes. Thinly slice the steak on a diagonal.
- 4. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the quinoa, reduce the heat, and simmer until the quinoa is tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain quinoa through a fine mesh sieve and let cool for 10 minutes.
- 5. Arrange the steak, quinoa, arugula, carrots, and sunflower seeds among individual plates and drizzle with the vinaigrette. (You may have some leftover vinaigrette. Simply cover and refrigerate for up to 5 days.) Add some freshly cracked black pepper if desired. Serve immediately.

In its ninth year, the Pier Lounge hosted an incredible night of partying, dancing, music and pillaging. This year, many who got into the groove showed up in costume, relishing the opportunity to let their inner pirate out for at least one night. Lovely ladies in their wench costumes roamed the floor, while naughty pirates drank their grogg and tried to figure out where the treasure was hidden or buried. The Pier was rockin' all night to the tunes of DJ Raul who belted out the best in music selections. All night the pirates were looting, and pillaging through the bar to find tokens and coins but, it was all worthwhile as the loot contained great treasure. Of course, no pirate party is complete without the announcement of the costume contest winners: JD, Adrian Vasquez, Samos, Lindsey and more.
"The turnout was great, the bar was packed and it was so much fun," commented Jan, the owner of Pier Lounge. Be sure to check out Pier Lounge's weekly agenda that includes bingo on Tuesday, the world famous chicken drop on Wednesday and Karaoke night on Saturday.

NORWEGIAN goalkeeper Marius Rovde, who is set to make his Wrexham debut this afternoon, is literally paying for his chance to play for the struggling second division club.
Racecourse boss Denis Smith yesterday revealed that his new loan signing will not cost the club a penny, with Rovde accepting a substantial cut in the salary that his present employers, Ayr United, are contracted to pay him.
"In this day and age when players are generally portrayed as being greedy, his attitude is remarkably refreshing," said Smith. "This lad is foregoing a lot of his salary to come and play for us and it's not going to cost Wrexham anything.
"As far as Marius is concerned, he simply wants to play football and, providing the international clearance paperwork is all completed, he will be in the side tomorrow.
"All the Norwegian players I've known are very confident and from what I've seen of him, I've been reasonably pleased."
As exclusively revealed in yesterday's Daily Post, Rovde, who has been given a free transfer by the Scottish first division club, is keen to try his luck in the Football League and he takes over from Kristian Rogers as one of two team changes against Swindon Town.
"Kristian is not happy but I would not expect him to be," added Smith. "He thinks he's had a pretty good season and I understand that both he and David Walsh will be disappointed.
"They've made mistakes, but that's par for the course when you are a goalkeeper. But they are both young lads who have a bright future in the game. Unfortunately I have to live in the present."
The Dragons' boss also recalls top scorer, Craig Faulconbridge, who completed his recovery from a three-match lay-off with 90 minutes in the reserves on Wednesday evening.
He replaces Andy Morrell, who ricked his neck in training on Thursday, but Smith said he did not want to tamper too much with the line-up that played at Oldham Athletic last Saturday.
"Robin Gibson has had a reaction to an ankle injury so the squad more or less picks itself," he said. "This is a big week for us because we have to beat Swindon tomorrow and Bury on Tuesday before going to Peterborough next weekend.
"A couple of wins will give everyone a lift and we have played well enough in recent matches to have picked up points. If you look at Swindon, the reports are that they are not playing well, but they beat Grimsby in midweek.
"I will be quite happy if we don't play as well tomorrow as we have recently if we take all three points. There are a lot of games to go, and while I accept that we have to start winning, we have a hell of a good chance as long as continue to perform as we have been.
"The signing of Marius has sorted out a problem that was possibly more perceived than fact and I hope that his arrival will give everyone, players and fans alike, a bit of lift going into tomorrow's game."
Swindon will again be without former Liverpool and England defender Neil Ruddock, who has not played for a month because of ankle ligament problems, and manager Andy King is also sweating on the fitness of Matt Hewlett and Paul Edwards. Both players were due to play in a midweek reserve team game, which was postponed leaving them short of match practice.
Hewlett, who missed four months of last season with a knee injury, has suffered a recurrence and has not played a senior game since the beginning of last month, while Edwards is recovering from a groin strain.
WREXHAM (probable): Rovde; Whitley, Carey, Roberts, Holmes; Phillips, Thomas, Ferguson; Sam, Trundle, Faulconbridge. Subs: Rogers, Lawrence, Chalk, Blackwood, Edwards.

Compendium Write Now Journals @ShopWritersBloc
Cheryl at Writer's Bloc very generously offered me a journal to review from their Compendium line, a name I wasn't familiar with that has an assortment of message journals that look to add a little hope and inspiration to your life. In particular is this Write Now Journal with the "Make the World A Little Kinder" motif that immediately grabbed my attention: it's a really beautiful image of the 7 chakras centers on the front cover.
The front and back view is beautiful, with the vibrant Roy G. Biv assembly of circles on a page green-gray background. I'm impressed with how bright the inks are and the overall design of this journal; the others in the series are equally compelling, but I have to say this one is my favorite. The cover is flexible, and has a light grain texture that's actually pleasing to the fingertips. Measuring about 5 by 8 with 128 pages, it's a good journal for every day use.
Inside you see the pages, which are printed in soy ink on chlorine-free paper. The paper is actually a bit on the scratchy side, I could feel the tip of my fountain pen going over it but there wasn't much resistance and the surface actually feels smooth to the touch. Every 6 pages is separated by a colorful buffer page containing a quotation, which adds a nice touch.
The inside cover has a space for writing your name or whatever you want to put down, with a lot of colorful images that add to the overall appeal of this journal. That, and the price, make it a winner!
Fountain pen ink had a slight bleed through, although the actual writing didn't feather out on the line. I'd say it would be about the same with a gel ink pen, so double-sided writing will have some shadow to it.
That said, this is one of the best-looking and most thoughtful journals I've ever seen. If you're a reiki/chakra enthusiast this would be a great journal for detailing your work and thoughts, but it's perfect as a daily diary for the less esoterically inclined.

Using the assets it acquired in the purchase of Questron Technology, Inc. and its subsidiaries, GE Supply, Shelton, Conn., recently launched GE Supply Logistics, LLC. The new Dallas-based business unit will develop and distribute supply chain management and inventory logistics management programs through two operating units, GE Supply Logistics and GE Supply Aerospace Logistics.
According to Jason Jones, who has been named president and general manager of the new unit, Questron was an ideal fit for the company. "The combined organizations will benefit from a natural synergy between our mutual customer bases, which include the aerospace industry, commercial and industrial users, and OEMs."
Questron filed for Chapter 11 protection in February, and GE Supply won a bankruptcy court-approved auction of Questron's assets in April. The transaction has received all necessary approvals.

As I've written in a previous post, living in Sana'a these days feels like sensory overload. Too much is happening, and too many sounds. Between thunderstorms, bullets, heavy artillary & fire works, it's often hard to differentiate between them all. I asked kids in my neighborhood to show me how to light a firework so I can get used to that specific sound. They only had a small type not the fancy loud one.
There are many different types of fireworks here. "Al-Gummally", who sells fireworks in the old city, has become famous these days for selling the best fireworks, or as my cousin said "fire weapons". He has all sorts of things form really tiny fireworks, to major independence day-like fireworks. It all depends on how much you are willing to pay. Fireworks were illegal at one point, but now that they're legal and encouraged, his business really profited. At least one business has not plummeted during this economic crisis!

Ants: An Annoyance Most readily useful Handled By Professionals
Post: #1
Maybe they'd be easier to accept, if bugs turned up only at pic-nics. As an alternative, they are able to make their way through the tiniest spaces and look uncomfortable in most any area of the home. Whilst the number-one 'pain pest' inside the U.S., ants enter domiciles to get food and water. This means that no matter how your home is constructed, where it is located or how old it is, it might be occupied by ants.
'We hear from disappointed callers every week who've unsuccessfully tried every do-it-yourself ant control product on the shelf,' note James and Morris Carey, nationally-recognized experts on home building and renovation, and hosts of the syndicated radio show 'On your House.' 'When you add up the time and money they have spent trying to rid their homes of ants, it'd have been less expensive and a whole lot easier to call a bug skilled to get it done right, the first time.'
'Effective ant get a grip on begins with a professional assessment and treatments using the most technologically-advanced products and services available,' advises James. Adds Morris, 'Professional solutions including Phantom insecticide and Termidor insecticide/termiticide are both undetected, letting the ants to feed the treated area and become carriers, spreading the treatment to other ants they contact. A bug professional can apply Phantom to trouble spots in your home, and Termidor around your home's foundations to achieve the outside nests where in fact the ants live. Many ant species are controlled inside a week of program.'
According to the Carey Bros., homeowner thinking is quickly shifting toward this time-efficient, inexpensive, peace-of-mind view that accompany having a pest professional handle ant invasions. I learned about read more by browsing newspapers. To-day, the picture of the pest management car signifies a motivated, intelligent way of finding and ridding a property of the pest that creates a major threat to homes, apartments and other components.

1. Re: A good example of Errai UI usageMike Brock Jan 7, 2013 8:37 PM (in response to Luca Masini)
I really think, to be honest, we're in the early stages of figuring out what the best practices for Errai UI are. There's a lot of people using it these days. I'd be curious to see what people have done in the community. But we have a lot of examples of Errai UI code in various demos.
... is a good starting place.

At only 23 years old, Billy McFarland launched Magnises, a private social club consisting of exciting events and deals that are only accessible to those who have the club's black card. The interesting part is that the card can be linked to your credit card or bank to facilitate mind-blowing shopping experience.
The benefits associated with the black card have contributed to its instant popularity in major restaurants and clubs. For instance, you might get discounts for using your Magnises card to pay bills at restaurants, clubs, bars, and reserve experiences such as luxurious gateways and exclusive concerts.
McFarland's statements
Speaking to the Business Insider, McFarland said that his mission is to create a comprehensive platform that links young consumers with new businesses both online and offline.
He decided to tie his mission to debit or credit card since it is the item carried by everyone at all times. New York City-based businesses such as clubs Finale and Goldbar, restaurants Catch and La Esquina, and Spin Studio Cyc have already signed a partnership deal with Magnises. In addition to discounted helicopter tours to the Hamptons, members can enjoy an exclusive performance by international rappers JA Rule and Rick Ross.
Billy McFarland in brief
Billy McFarland is a shrewd entrepreneur born in New York City and brought up in New Jersey. McFarland instituted his first entrepreneurial venture at the age of 13.
Entrepreneurial career
According to Crunchbase, Billy McFarland established Spling, an innovative ad platform, after dropping from college. The platform allows users to boost the appearance of URLs by transforming the text links into striking images arranged as mosaics on online bulletin boards. Spling serves high-status clients such as Universal and Discovery.
McFarland developed Magnises towards the end of 2013 and launched it officially on March 1, 2016. The annual fee for the card is $250, but it has neither initiation fee nor spending requirements. Magnises is planning to expand to other cities such Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, Boston, and London.

Quick thoughts from a deadbeat blogger
A few things:
* The Big Ten managed to set a new record for number of teams being absolutely screwed by the BCS: 2. The one everyone's talking about is Michigan, and yes, let me repeat: they got screwed. Period. And if Florida would've gotten snubbed, I would've devoted this space to letting you know that the Gators got screwed. This system, when it works, works perfectly. When it doesn't, ridiculous things happen. The BCS was created to "let 'em play it out on the field." Well, Michigan and Florida won't be playin' it out on the field, will they? I say this: Ohio State was the only one left standing after the season. Give 'em the trophy. Let 'em go play a one-loss team as an exhibition. Or pair them with undefeated Boise State so we have one and only one one-loss team at season's end.
* Wisconsin, of course, is the other team that got screwed. A one-loss team from a major conference isn't getting a BCS invite because two others are. The system is broken. I'd even say that Auburn got screwed. That Boise State is in at large and the Tigers are not is ridiculous. That Notre Dame is in and the Tigers are not is potentially even more ridiculous. It seems that all the top teams in the country are in the Big Ten and the SEC this year, with the exception of USC. And since every conference needs to get its share of the bowl money, good teams are kept out.
* The matchup with Arkansas in the Citrus Bowl (that's what I'm calling it ... forever) is a great one. If Darren McFadden was playing at his peak level, I don't know whether I'd call it so great or not. But with him hobbling around, I think the teams are evenly matched, and this will be one of the greatest bowl games of the season. It will certainly be better than Central Michigan-Middle Tennessee State. I think a good drinking game would be to take a shot everytime the announcers say "WILDCAT!" And by "good," I mean "one that would likely kill you before the end of the first half."
* Basketball is exactly where I figured it'd be ... one forehead-slapping loss to Missouri State, a close call at home against Winthrop, and a sumo match against Marquette tomorrow. Now, if only I could care about anything beyond final scores, conference standings, and tournament brackets with regard to this mind-numbing sport.
* And as for hockey ... we lost something like a dozen players after the title season. Did the pollsters take that into consideration when they were giving the Badgers their #1 votes?
* Congrats to Joe Thomas, who won the Outland Trophy in February when he announced he was returning to the team and collected it yesterday. And it's good to see that the Maxwell voters haven't left the Harris Poll voters out to dry as the only mindless goons who make important decisions in college football.

Good post. Notre Dame will continue to get BCS invites until they have a losing season. The Badgers also got the shaft but congrats on a great start in the AA era (After Alvarez).

The kids started school today!! This summer has gone by SO fast, but I am ready for school to start. ;0)
The kids awoke to these fun treats sitting on the kitchen table this morning:
These were what the kids brought to their teachers this morning:
My big 3rd Grader Lily!!
Zach going into 7th Grade!!
Riley, not too sure what he thinks about going into 5th Grade. ;0)
Zach didn't even want to walk into the building with us. LOL! I did get a picture of Riley with his teacher, Sister Eloise.
And of course, Lily wanted a picture with her new teacher, Mrs. Matechik:
They all said they had a great (if not overwhelming for the older two) first day.

text: This post may contain affiliate links. Read our disclosure.4:48 a.m. I woke this morning to a pattern of lights slowly gliding across my bedroom ceiling. A pale, yellow apparition in the shape of my window that twisted in upon itself before fading completely. Seconds later, another. Then … a third. For a moment, I was captivated. In the quiet morning hours, it felt like a special light show that someone had arranged just for me. As I was still half-asleep, it felt alien, yet calming and beautiful. Within seconds I realized it was just the reflection of headlights from the cars on the street below. My amazement was short lived. © Dhilung Kirat My initial reaction to this mundane event mirrors how children see the world. Everything they see, hear, taste, and experience is viewed with wide-eyed amazement, joy, and awe. They don't completely understand it all. Partly because they can't — their brains simply lack the capacity to comprehend it. Subscribe to Our Under the Radar Newsletter Get our freshest + most popular travel stories, exclusive travel deals, and loads of pretty pictures + travel inspiration! But, more importantly, I'm not sure they want to. Unlike adults, their amazement stems from a pure, carefree place that values the experience itself more than a grown-up need to analyze, mentally catalog, and file it all away as yet another underappreciated moment. Consider the reasons: Everything is new to them They possess limitless curiosity + everything is a learning experience They live in a carefree bubble, without the worries of daily adult life (money, relationships, life and death) They love to create They don't care what other people think They act with reckless abandon – doing "just because" Their default mode is "play" They live in the present For many reasons, humans begin to outgrow these qualities around adolescence. Through experience, we see enough fireworks, laser pointers, and fluffy kitties that they become ordinary, part of the background static of daily life. It's understandable. If every adult wandered the streets, mouth agape in pure awe at the mere sight of an airplane or the moon overhead, society would grind to a halt. Society also teaches us that childishness is for, well, children. Beyond a certain age, that playful curiosity is often no longer recognized as a virtue. Everyone is born creative; everyone is given a box of crayons in kindergarten. Then when you hit puberty they take the crayons away and replace them with dry, uninspiring books on algebra, history, etc. Being suddenly hit years later with the 'creative bug' is just a wee voice telling you, 'I'd like my crayons back, please.' — Hugh MacLeod © Jeremy Kunz Childlike awe is a skill worth cultivating. But too many of us live our lives at the extremes — either as immature adults barely able to fend for ourselves or as "good", responsible adults with an unwavering focus on our bank accounts, job security, and whether that tie is dressy enough for the company Christmas party. As adults, we often lose the ability to, as my Nana would say, "stop and tip-toe through the tulips". Which is why I've begun to appreciate that tapping into that original joy — that childlike awe — is a skill worth cultivating. I would argue that it's critical in fact to finding true happiness. It comes easy for frequent travelers. Witnessing Victoria Falls, the Great Wall of China, or the Eiffel Tower for the first time inspires awe in even the most hardened "adult". (Although I know more than a few travel bloggers who hardly seem amazed by anything anymore, which only proves my point …) The true practice then comes at home. At finding wanderlust in the ordinary, in the everyday. I say "wanderlust" because that's what it is in the broadest sense of the word. The term has been coopted in recent years to mean "a burning desire to travel". But defining the word so narrowly is the antithesis of traveling and living through a child's eyes. And we forget that the world is all around us, that wanderlust is not just embodied in an exotic, hardly pronounceable island 6,000 miles from home. © CIA DE FOTO Unlike with Robert Redford though, all is not lost. We can regain some of that original curiosity, amazement, awe, and ultimately joy. Even if only a little at a time. We just need to try. Here's how … Watch + Play with Children Sit down with children. Observe them. Experience their world literally at their level. Play with them and their toys on their terms ("Now you're the firefighter and I'M the toothbrush dragon!") and make up some of your own. Don't think. Just abandon any preconceived notions you might have and go with it. Chat with Children Like challenging a goldfish to a staring contest, you cannot out-talk a kid. They will ask and ask and ask and ask until you can't physically answer anymore. Learn from this. Be curious. Speak with them, not as an adult or child, but as a human being. Ask them questions back and learn from their answers. Even if they're nonsensical, simply appreciating and enjoying how a carefree mind thinks can be a very helpful lesson. The most sophisticated people I know – inside they are all children. —Jim Henson Foster Your Own Curiosity Children constantly ask "Why?" and "Why not?" Revive your own curiosity about the world around you by doing the same. Every hour of every day, there's so much going on inches from your nose that you don't know or understand. Look closer. This will help you appreciate the extraordinary in the everyday. Learn to Play Alone Learning to amuse and play by yourself is one of the most important skills an adult can cultivate. It can instill humility by teaching you to laugh at yourself. It can reteach you how to have fun, no matter the circumstances and no matter who might be watching. Live Without Constraint There's nothing sadder than hearing an adult say, "I always wanted to do that …" Because, no matter what that was, they probably could have. What would you do, create, or be without societal pressure or expectations? Children don't have that constant, nagging "Nah, you can't do that …" voice in the back of their minds. You shouldn't either. The only thing it's going to do is stop you from following your dreams. Above All: Live in the Moment. Enjoy the Now. The entire paradigm of a child can be summed up thusly: Enjoy the now. Live in the present. It's easier said than done of course. In a world of 24-hour news cycles, an endless need to update our Facebook statuses, and texting instead of calling, it sounds impossible. So start by slowing down. If you're multitasking, knock it off. Seriously: it's a myth. If you have that much to do, take stock of your daily life and weed out the things that aren't enriching it. Start small: once a month, abandon all responsibilities and obligations for an entire afternoon. Shed your adult persona for the moment and be spontaneous to a fault. "Never stop wandering, never stop wondering …" 3 Responses Christy December 5 I love this, Mike! I'm definitely guilty of forgetting to enjoy the small things in life. Although, I did just spend a week in Puerto Rico with four of my nephews and, unfortunately, all they wanted to do was play video games. :) Reply Mike Richard December 5 Haha – thanks, Christy! That's actually a really good point. I should've said: "See the World Like a Child (Before There Were Video Games, In-car DVD Players, and iPads)" =P Reply John Rodgers January 19 Though she is not quite as young as the children in your post our grand daughter is meeting us in Spain at the end of school. She is only 13 and will spend the summer with us in Spain then in India. We have a total of 5 grand children and we try to have at least one of them with us every summer as we travel. At that age the wonder of travel and new places is really interesting to them and it is the best time of the year for us. Hopefully it will inspire them to be travelers as we are.

[Death Tunnel]
Plot:Based upon a true story about a Kentucky hospital built in 1910 where 63,000 people died from a disease known as the, "white plaque". Upon their death they traveled through what they call the "Death Tunnel",where the dead and dying were carried through a massive Five hundred foot underground Tunnel to their final resting place. The story involves Five girls on a college initiation, dared to spend the night separately on the Five floors of this sanatorium, with the Five ghosts that exist within it's abandoned corridors. Will they make it through the night? For the only way out is through...the Death Tunnel.
Cast: Steffany Huckaby, Annie Burgstede, Kristin Novak, Jason Lasater, Melanie Lewis, Yolanda Pecoraro.
My Thoughts:Atmospheric, spooky,scary at times, but WTF was up with the ending?
Review:It seems lately that the good haunted house movies are coming out of the direct-to-dvd market. Anthony C. Ferrantes "Boo", which was released last year October, and now Philip Adrian Booths "Death Tunnel", which hits dvd February 28th. "Death Tunnel" which is set in Kentucky, is the story of a sorority initiation gone horribly wrong. 5 Girls are dropped off on separate floors of an abandoned hospital, and the object of the game is to find their way out of the hospital. This abandoned hospital has a very dark past however, as it was where a vast number of people died from a disease known as the "white plague". It also has a huge corridor nicknamed "The Death Tunnel", which is where the ones who were dead or near death were dumped to live out the last few days, or hours of their lives. What makes this movie so cool, is that the hospital is actually a real landmark in Kentucky which was built in 1910, and it did actually house people dying from a very fatal disease. That knowledge really adds to the overall ora of the film. Now as for whether it's haunted or not, damned if I know...but in this movie, it sure as hell is. In fact, as convienient as it is to go along with there being 5 young ladies in this place, the hospital is also haunted by 5 ghosts. Actually 6 if you count one of the apparitions being twin sisters. "Death Tunnel" also steals a bit from "Saw 2", with the organizers of the initiation game watching the action on every floor, via tv screens set up in a hidden room. Theres even a creepy voice that shows up in the movie to remind us every now and then of how many girls are still left alive, each time one bites the dust...and ironically enough, this voice is similar to that of Jigsaw! Watching this movie you would think the director Philip Adrian Booth, watched "Saw" and "House on Haunted Hill" (remake) and then got the idea for "Death Tunnel", Because it takes alot from both movies. The creepy visuals, flashy editing, and storyline surrounding the haunted hospital all mimic that of what took place in "House on Haunted Hill 1999". This however isn't a terrible thing, as Booth puts his own little spin on everything, and creates quite a creepy and at times disturbing haunted house flick. Booth also knows this subgenre very well, and throws in everything thats needed to create a successful formula that works. Blood,gore, freaky looking ghosts, disturbing visuals out of nowhere, they're all in this film and they all come at the right time as so not to damage the pacing of the film. The dark, dingy, foggy atmosphere of the hospital also lends a very large helping hand in setting the films mood and overall feel.The lead female characters of the movie who are three very good looking women, start out lacking of character development. But as the movie goes on, and the mysterious dark past of the hospital begins to unfold, the main 3 leading ladies played by Steffany Huckaby, Annie Burgstede, and Kristin Novak who plays the "mean girl" of the film...become more and more vital to the story, all the while spending most of the film being chased all over the place by the hospitals otherwordly residents. The male lead played by Jason Lasater does pretty good in his role also even though he doesn't end up mattering too much until the end, which speaking of, was a real let down. Booth does such a great job with everything in this movie on a limited budget, and while you would think bad fx, or poor quality would be the poison pill for a movie like "Death Tunnel", it was the ridiculous waste of an ending that becomes this movies biggest downfall. Whats even worse about the ending, is that it refuses to tie into the story until the very end! Ultimately, "Death Tunnel" is a smart,fun,eerie, and entertaining B horror movie. But when they end like this people, you just have to shake your head in disappointment that they were so close to getting the entire equation right.
Pros:Very atmospheric, pretty good performances by the actors, very creepy and unsettling visuals, solid story, not extremely bloody and gory but it gets the job done thats for sure,and overall it's a lot of fun to watch.
Cons:The ending of course.
Overall:I would suggest this film as a dvd buy rather than rent. It's a great b movie that has alot of qualities many other b movies lack, mainly a good story and decent performances. Despite it's lackluster ending, it's definitely worth your time.

New BJP - 11 done, one to go
November's BJP turned out much differently than I though - I'd picked the colours for all of the months (and set aside some beads for each one) even before the year began. November was supposed to be gray, but I loved the taupe/grey/brown spiral so much that I wanted to use it. And then other grey/brown beads jumped into my hands, and found their way into the piece. So November is now grey/brown, and not just grey.
7 comments:
I have some similarly colored beads, and I love what you've done with them! Very pretty!

I love what you've done this month, I think the brown really adds something to it.

This is a lovely, subtle rendition of November. I think it's perfect!
I love what you've done on your sidebar, showing all of your completed beaded projects. I may steal that idea for my own blog ;- )

All Of This Should Be On '60 Minutes'
In response to your article "County Discusses St. Marie Bankruptcy" (May 7, Page 1A), the properties in question are not Pat Kelly's, but St. Marie Development Corporation of Mt. (SMDC), a corporation that was formed for the creditors of Terry Parks' bankruptcy. At the time of Terry Parks' bankruptcy, people rightfully said that the stock had no value as there was no market for the properties. SMDC under Marv Bethea sold the few marketable properties of SMDC for ridiculously low prices. The 120 storage units, which Bethea currently owns, netted SMDC about a hundred dollars each; I wonder what he is asking for them now. The large Base Exchange and the large grocery store building each sold for a few thousand dollars; currently those two buildings are being sold under contract to DTM for over $300,000, while the housing still has no value.
The Chapter 11 was initiated to stop Bethea from taking the Chapel with a judgment that is being contested by a breach of contract. The only way that St. Marie will be an asset to Valley County is if the inventory is held together and national advertising is done; there is no local market for 700 homes. SMDC has no creditors that are asking for payment that could be harmed by a Chapter 11, no payments have been stopped; basically the only creditors SMDC has are attorneys that have been fighting bogus liens by Marv Bethea for years to help keep SMDC properties. The attorneys know that the only way they will be paid is to get good title.
The housing that SMDC got out of the Terry Parks' bankruptcy was mostly inferior single story units and with 500 of the better units owned by others and title problems SMDC units had no value then and still do not today. I have spent many hundreds of thousands of dollars of personal funds and took on $500,000 in debt and have been trying to bring St. Marie back; for the county attorney to state that I may have done fraudulent transfers of units for no just compensation to SMDC is disgraceful.
I asked to brief the commissioner on the St. Marie and the Chapter 11, but they did not respond; it seems they had made up their minds. There is not negative to the Chapter 11 except to those taking properties; it helps creditors and shareholders. I am currently working on a joint venture that depends on the properties staying together.
There is much more that needs to be told on the county's actions, such as the 1,000 percent increase in taxes that resulted in the dilapidated buildings Commissioner Dave Pippin wants you to pay for the tear down. The only income properties (13) of mine that would help in bringing St. Marie back were "randomly" chosen out of over 400 units by the commissioners as property the county wanted to take. The 47 severed units (personal property) taken under real property rules that taxes could not be paid for individually because they were under one code; the county had already made an exception to Bethea, it was originally 48 units. Bethea then took 44 of those units from SMDC and myself under those conditions. When you talk to people around the state Valley County has the worst reputation of all of Montana, why is that? I believe it is the lack of leadership; a local minister said it was a "black cloud." No one would be able to say that with Fort Peck and a thriving St. Marie and a growing and prosperous Glasgow. My great-grandfather was the tailor at Fort Buford at the confluence of the Missouri and Yellowstone rivers in the 1880s and later homesteaded near Sidney. I know the people of Eastern Montana are the best. One of the reasons Judy and I came and developed St. Marie was because of our heritage and the love of the people here. We are great people and need to demand good leadership.
Your article stated "County Attorney Nickolas Murnion explained that a Chapter 7 would mean a faster process to liquidate the listed assets." Why liquidate them when they have no value, and for whom and why? Does a town father want them? I believe the properties would go to Marv Bethea's bogus judgment. No creditors are asking for payment, except Bethea and his judgment, but Mr. Murnion says it would be faster. Faster to do what? The article also states, "The county has an issue with the further delay on tax liens on the properties." These are the bogus water liens created prior to Terry Parks bankruptcy that need to be challenged. The article goes on about Mr. Pippin's concern about dilapidated buildings and a possible raise in mill levy. Not growth, but an increase in mill levy is Mr. Pippin's solution? All this should be on "60 Minutes." I am serious; everyone call "60 Minutes." It is an unbelievable story. If anyone knows why the commissioners are against growth let the editor know.
Well, whatever it is I am committed to make the community named "St. Marie" a special place and will be in Billings defending SMDC against Mr. Bethea and the commissioners represented by Mr. Pippin of Pippinville. A little humor here at Mr. Pippen's expense; I reference to Pippinville/Pottersville as it relates to Potterville in the Christmas movie "It's a Wonderful Life," it seems there is a close comparison and the results would be similar.
I have many things I would rather be doing, such as finishing the "Pregnant Virgin Mary Statue" for my wife's grave site, but nothing is more important to Judy and I than making the Community we named St. Marie a special place. You all need to speak up. Valley County should not have to put up with a dump of a community such as St. Marie is now or pay for tearing it down. Judy and I did the impossible against all odds years ago, and St. Marie can benefit everyone if you all get involved and support Two Rivers Economic Growth and the Glasgow Chamber and get behind development.
How can this be changed? I believe that Two Rivers and the chamber will overcome the negative atmosphere that has dominated the area. Each of you out there needs to get involved, especially parents and business owners.

Chrissy Metz & Shannon Purser Will Star in Netflix's 'Sierra Burgess Is a Loser'
Chrissy Metz and Shannon Purser are starring in a movie together!
The 37-year-old This Is Us star and the 20-year-old Stranger Things actress will join forces for the upcoming Netflix film Sierra Burgess Is a Loser.
The Ian Samuels-directed flick also stars RJ Cyler, Kristine Froseth, Noah Centineo, Alan Ruck, and Lea Thompson.
The film is "a modern rom-com retelling of the story of Cyrano de Bergerac, set in high school. It centers on Sierra (Shannon), an intelligent teen who does not fall into the shallow definition of high school pretty but, in a case of mistaken identity that results in unexpected romance, must team with the popular girl (Kristine) in order to win her crush," according to Variety.
We can't wait!
