Convinced that the owners of the Cubs have soured on Chicago, DuPage County Board Chairman Dan Cronin said Wednesday he's making a 9th-inning pitch to lure the team to the western suburbs.
Cronin said he's identified at least two and as many as four parcels that would satisfy the Ricketts family's need for a 40-acre site with "arterial road support and a public transit component."
DuPage County also has conducted a marketing study that shows the Cubs would earn even more money in the western suburbs, even though the demographics of the team's fan base would change dramatically from bar-hopping singles to families.
The Cubs would earn an extra $17 million-a-year right off the bat, since DuPage County has no amusement tax, he said.
Cronin says he's pitching the Cubs — even after Mayor Rahm Emanuel has started delivering on promises made in his "framework" agreement with Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts — because there's been a "qualitative change" in the attitude of team owners.
"They feel hurt, disappointed and offended. They believe their future — even if they're able to strike this deal now — will be uncertain and based on the whims of political and government leadership," Cronin said.
"That experience with the City Council [last week] over the night games was particularly eye opening, instructive and troubling to them. Some of the [Ricketts] siblings came to the conclusion that the city doesn't really want to partner with them and it will be difficult and uncertain forever. They want to be wanted. We may not have the charming Wrigleyville neighborhood. But, we look for ways to make it work. We don't throw obstacles in front of business."
Cubs spokesman Julian Green reiterated the team's complaint about confining language in the ordinance that authorized the team to play up to 46 night games-per-season at Wrigley, start six Friday afternoon games at 3:05 p.m. and stage four concerts.
But, Green said Ricketts is committed to seeing through an approval process he hopes will authorize a 6,000-square-foot video scoreboard in right field, a 1,000-square-foot, see-through sign in right-field and 35,000 square feet of advertising on a 91-foot high hotel and open-air plaza the Cubs plan to build outside the stadium.
Ricketts has further demanded: a Class L property tax break and "no compensation" to Chicago taxpayers — either for air rights over Clark Street to accommodate a pedestrian bridge or for taking out a lane of parking on Waveland and a sidewalk on Sheffield to extend the right- and left-field walls outward to minimize the impact of outfield signs on rooftop views.
"Our goal is to stay here in Chicago. That's the commitment we made. As part of that commitment, we need to go through the planned development process. When we do, hopefully we'll find that the city is just as committed to us," Green said.
"At this time, we are not interested in competing offers. We've invested a lot of time, energy and resources in the planned development process. Our focus is on getting the necessary approvals so we can invest $500 million to renovate Wrigley Field and develop the surrounding community. Things get tweaked. We can't expect nothing will be changed. But, we need flexibility."
Rosemont has offered the billionaire family that owns the Cubs 25 free acres to build a suburban replica of 99-year-old Wrigley. Cicero has also expressed interest.
But, Green insisted Wednesday that the Cubs did not solicit the 11th-hour offer from DuPage to pressure City Hall to change the night game ordinance.
"We don't have the time or luxury to invest in pressure tactics and aggressive measures. But, we're flattered they believe there's value to this franchise," he said.
Last month, Ricketts threatened to move his team out of Wrigley and Chicago if he doesn't get the outfield signs he needs to bankroll a $300 million stadium renovation without a public subsidy.
Since then the Cubs have demanded changes to a night game ordinance that would require the team to foot the bill for security and sanitation costs tied to more than 40 night games per season and forfeit a night game after any season that includes more than four "non-baseball events," including concerts or college football games.
The team was equally unhappy with Emanuel's decision to cap the number of Saturday night games at two per season and give the city "unprecedented" control over when rained-out games are rescheduled.
Emanuel responded to those complaints by essentially saying the Cubs should be grateful for what they got.
"It may not be exactly what you want, but that's what an honest compromise is. And we're gonna continue to make progress for them on a whole host of other issues of implementing the framework," the mayor said last week.
"When you buy a company and you had 30 nights and you go to 40, that's clearly an increase. There are six additional games that are now at 3:05 p.m. and four opportunities to do other alternative evening events, like concerts and football games."

Bring on Spring!
March 20th is the vernal equinox! And the cry goes up around the world: "Which one is that again?" Well, it's a reason to celebrate, of course, and here's why and how your family can enjoy the official start of spring.
What Is the Vernal Equinox?
An equinox is a day (we get two a year) when we have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness all around the globe. The Northern Hemisphere's vernal equinox occurs on March 20 or 21 each year. It marks the first day of spring!
This Day in History
In ancient times, pagans celebrated the vernal equinox as the festival of Ostara (hmm, possible baby name?), the fertility goddess, and used the symbols of the hare and the egg to honor the deity. The date of Easter, like Passover, is determined by the first full moon after the vernal equinox.
Monumental Observances
Worldwide, ancient monuments commemorate this celestial event. But the coolest monument is the temple of Chichen Itza in Mexico (shown), where the ancient Maya built a large pyramid that aligns with the equinox. As the sun rises on March 20, a shadow of a serpent becomes visible on the outer staircase, and through the day, appears to descend toward the gathered multitudes. Nice. It's no wonder that the vernal equinox continues to hold special significance for many cultures today.
Around the World (Literally)
The vernal equinox marks the first day of the year on the Baha'i calendar, and it's New Year's Day in Iran, too, where fire-jumping and family picnics reign. So, Eid showma mobarak! (Happy Persian New Year!) and watch out for the flames! Elsewhere, in many Arab countries, Mother's Day is celebrated on the spring equinox. And in Japan, it's a national holiday called Shunbun no hi, traditionally commemorated by honoring ancestors and eating yummy peony cakes. So why not celebrate spring equinox in your corner of the world? All you'll need are these ideas for a festive, family-style day.
Sprout into Spring
Families in Iran plant wheat or lentil seeds in bowls 15 days before the equinox. You and your toddler can enjoy similar anticipation by planting fast-growing grass seed. Fill a disposable cup 3/4 full with potting soil. Sprinkle a single layer of grass seed on the surface, then spray very gently with water until well moistened. Keep the cup on a sunny windowsill and spritz lightly each day. You should see wisps of green in about five days. For an extra spring giggle, help your child draw a smiley face on the cup and watch the green "hair" grow!
Call It a Holiday
Combine Arab and Japanese traditions to create a new one: Celebrate the equinox by honoring a special woman in your extended family. Pick up the phone and call Great Aunt Kay, Great-Grandma, or a Great Friend. Imagine her delight when she hears your little one wish her a "Happy Vernal Equinox!" And now that you know what it is, you'll have something to chat about. You could even ask her if she knows the old wives' tale about balancing eggs on the equinox. (Actually, you can balance an egg on its point any day, provided you have the time.)
Tell a Story
The vernal equinox also marks World Storytelling Day, so stop by your neighborhood library or bookstore to discover a tale of spring. There are oodles of books on the topic; here are three favorites:
-Welcome Spring by Jill Ackerman
-It's Spring by Samantha Berger
-When Will It Be Spring? by Catherine Walters
Sing Like a Bird
Why should the other holidays get all the good songs? You and your child can make up your own springtime ditty by setting rhyming words to a well-known tune. It's not as hard as you think because, hey, what word doesn't rhyme with spring? To inspire you, here's an echo song, sung to the tune of Frére Jacques:
It is springtime.
(It is springtime.)
Winter's gone.
(Winter's gone.)
Summertime is coming.
(Summertime is coming.)
Won't be long!
(Won't be long!)
If you can't think of one of your own, don't worry, because no one gets tired of Frére Jacques.
Celebrate Your Way
Singing a song, telling a story, talking with a loved one, planting a seed: These are just a few ways to make the vernal equinox a special day in your family's year. The spring themes of renewal, growth, and warmth are perfect to celebrate with children, and the activities themselves pay homage to the arts, our relationships, and nature. Whether you try one, all four, or something all your own, remember that every holiday reminds us that life itself should be a celebration. Happy Vernal Equinox!
Easter Fun for Babies and ToddlersEven before they're able to color an Easter egg perfectly, babies and toddlers are awed by the color and activity of the holiday! Use these simple ideas to engage your little one...view gallery

Connie Hedegaard: "Linking of European and Australian emissions trading systems will help build a robust international carbon market"
Connie Hedegaard and Greg Combet, Australian minister for climate change and energy efficiency, announced today that Australia and Europe are to link their emissions trading systems.
A full two-way link between the two cap and trade systems will start no later than 1 July 2018. Under this arrangement businesses will be able to use carbon units from the Australian emissions trading scheme or the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) for compliance under either system.
An interim link between the two systems will be established enabling Australian businesses to use EU allowances to help meet liabilities under the Australian emissions trading scheme from 1 July 2015 until the full link is operational.
Commissioner Hedegaard said: "We now look forward to the first full international linking of emission trading systems. This would be a significant achievement for both Europe and Australia. It is further evidence of strong international cooperation on climate change and will build further momentum towards establishing a robust international carbon market."
Minister Combet said: "Linking the Australian and European Union systems reaffirms that carbon markets are the prime vehicle for tackling climate change and the most efficient means of achieving emissions reductions."
The Australian government has agreed to enter into negotiations on a full-linking agreement and the European Commission will seek a mandate to do so in the coming months.

Nags Head Condo Rentals with Parking Included(18)

Recent Nags Head Reviews
Great Condo for Fun Family Vacation
Our family booked this condo specifically to be close to the beach and visit nearby national parks and shopping. Not only did the condo meet our expectations, it exceeded them in every way. The condo is right on the beach and the view was all sand and sea. The property is close to grocery stores and restaurants. We visited aquariums, the Wright Brother's memorial and drive coastal highways to see lighthouses. We bought a kite and flew it on the beach. The kids had a great time playing in the sand, riding boogie boards and searching for crabs at night. The condo owner, Mark was a great host and really made sure our stay was comfortable. We would recommend this property to anyone wanting to have a family vacation where you can focus on catching up with your kids in a clean and updated condo with a great view.
Great Vacation Rental!
We were so thrilled with the location of this vacation rental. The place was exactly as advertised and pictured. The property is, quite literally, on the beach. The pools were well maintained and super clean. The views from our balcony were wonderful. The unit was dated but impeccably clean! The only reason I didn't give this a 5 star rating is that the exterior of the property is in need of some sprucing - but don't judge a book by its cover. The property owner (Mark) as well as the care takers (Mike & Lisa) were 100% accessible and extremely helpful. This was our first time to the OBX, so choosing the right place on a budget was very overwhelming. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook and eat with (except the food) and the owner provided all clean linens. We have 4 children ages 15, 13, 10 & 7 and the unit was not overly crowded (although we spent most of our time on the beach, the pool or taking in the sights). I would highly recommend booking here - and we have already recommended to friends and family. We would definitely stay here again.
What you see is what you get!
We stayed at the Paisley Marlin the first week of August 2014. The unit is exactly as the pictures show. We've gone to the Outer Banks several times and love the Nags Head area. The building is on the older side, but that didn't effect our stay in any way. The deck/balcony area is huge and we loved have the double slider doors. Since our week was unseasonably cool (for August), we were able to leave the bedroom slider open a bit and listen to the ocean as we slept. The location is perfect and we would definitely stay here again. My kids' favorite part about the condo: being right on the beach, the bunk beds and Duck Donuts!

Should You Buy These Massive Merger Rumors?
Brian is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
The boutique firm Moffett Research upgraded shares of DirectTV (NASDAQ: DTV) and Dish Networks (NASDAQ: DISH) to "buy" on Thursday. The firm's "buy" rating was not fundamental in nature, but rather based on the possibility of a merger. With that said, will this "merger" ever occur?
A Deal in the Making?
Moffett Research makes a compelling case for investing in the two largest satellite companies. Analyst Craig Moffet says that even after "pruning bad branches" from the two companies, the combined synergies from the deal would be "staggering."
Moffett believes a DirecTV/Dish merger could represent $30-$40 billion in net present value, and is now possible thanks to Dish's failed attempt to acquire Sprint and its decision to withdraw its bid from Clearwire.
For the last two years, whispers of a DirecTV/Dish merger have been consistent, as many believe the combined technologies could greatly impact its competitive advantage. The reason being technology, patents, and licensing agreements that these two companies have combined.
Currently, both companies pay for content, but a combination of the two companies would save a great deal on the content that both companies pay for the same channels, often creating bidding wars. DirecTV is known for its cutting edge DVR technology and sports packages.
While Dish has Blockbuster DVD rentals, a massive portfolio of streaming options, and has its spectrum approved for mobile, these small differences can create one great company combined, which would ultimately save on costs and increase margins (as noted by Moffett Research).
Using History as a Guide
Moffett has been ranked the #1 analyst in the U.S. Cable & Satellite sector for the last seven years, according to Institutional Investor Magazine. Therefore, he does have great knowledge of the space and we cannot discount his belief. With that said, I don't see this merger happening, and for one reason: the FCC!
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) must first approve any proposed deal, as their job is to determine the economic impact of such deals and its competitive effect on the market. Thus, to explain why this merger will not work, we can simply look back to the proposed acquisition of T-Mobile by AT&T (NYSE: T)
AT&T had attempted to purchase T-Mobile for $39 billion; a deal that would've created significant separation between it and Verizon as the number #1 and #2 U.S. carrier. The acquisition would have combined the #2 (AT&T) and #4 (T-Mobile) U.S. carriers.
Combined, this acquisition would have created more than 150 million subscribers, which would have been far greater than #1 Verizon's 115 million and #3 Sprint's 55.6 million subscribers. As a result, the FCC blocked the proposal, saying "the transaction would decrease competition, innovation and investment, and harm consumers."
A Repeat of History?
The FCC must approve any proposed merger between Dish and DirecTV. Already, DirecTV and Dish are the largest two satellite companies, by far. But, if we look at cable, satellite, digital, etc. all combined, then DirecTV and Dish are numbers two and three.
If a merger was ever presented, it would equal almost 35 million subscribers, which would be more than 50% greater than Comcast. The AT&T/T-Mobile deal would've only been 30% greater than Verizon's subscribers. Therefore, a DirecTV/Dish merger might be even more "unfair" than the AT&T/T-Mobile deal.
Then, there is one more element to consider: DirecTV also has 16.3 million subscribers in Latin America. While this is hardly a concern to the FCC, it might pose a regulatory issue in Latin America, further adding to an unlikely merger.
The bottom line: If the FCC considered the AT&T/T-Mobile acquisition as negative for the economy or as an unfair advantage, then why in the world would they approve a merger than would be even more impactful relative to its industry?
My belief is that this massive merger will never be approved, but it could create some excitement within the market among those who believe it is possible. Sure, DirecTV and Dish might talk, and might even present a deal, but it doesn't matter if the FCC will not sign off.
How Does This Affect You?
On Thursday, Dish Networks traded higher by 3%, with the most to gain from a merger, seeing as how it is the smaller of the two companies. Most likely, as these rumors, or talks, continue, more gains will be created. However, once it falls through, it could create sudden losses for investors.
My advice is to accept the obvious. Shares of Dish Network have returned a 6% gain in the two days following the suggestion of a merger. The stock is trading higher by more than 50% over the last year and is now trading at 39 times earnings.
On the other hand, DirecTV is trading at just 13 times earnings, and is actually growing faster. Thus, if I were looking to invest in the space, I'd definitely go with DirecTV, and would not follow the rumors of a potential merger.

You don't pay for tutoring
unless you find a good fit!
Bill S. passed a background check on 3/26/12. The check was ordered by Bill through First Advantage. For more information, please review the background check information page.
After sending a message to Bill, you will be able to order a new background check for $7.99. As part of your tutor selection process, we encourage you to run updated background checks. Please also review the safety tips for hiring tutors.
Dear Student,
I consider myself a "student of life." I am excited about the possibilities of helping you teach yourself more about the subjects you are interested in. It is my belief that we all teach ourselves, and sometimes that process takes longer than we would like. As a teacher, I hope to present some ideas and concepts for you to consider, that might help enhance your comprehension. The most important thing is to be optimistic and patient. As Herman Hesse wrote in his book Siddhartha, "If you can learn patience, you can learn anything." I myself, am not particularly fast at learning some things, and I have a saying that I use to remind myself, "The more you do it, the better you get." So, with Patience, and Practice, you can master almost anything as long as you are willing to spend time to Work at it.
I have spent the past 17 years working in Film Special Effects, and Computer Video graphics, and now I am ready for a new adventure. Helping students to teach themselves seems like an important and interesting opportunity.
My college education is in Engineering and Computer Science, so I have a good knowledge of basic math and science. I also play piano and compose music. I have self-produced a number of audio music CD's of original music. Also, I love history. I have read almost 2000 books in my life and am familiar with most periods in history. I am especially interested in ancient Roman History, American History, Modern Art History, and the prehistory of early man.
In conclusion, if you need help with Basic Math, Algebra, History, or Music Theory, I would love an opportunity to help out. Together we can tackle the difficult issues, and before you know it, you will have mastered them.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Thank you for your time and good luck with your learning adventure.
I have an engineering degree and am still good with Algebra. I also used algebra concepts in my computer programming, and Visual Effects work.
I am certain that I can explain the concepts so you have a better understanding and a better mastery of Algebra.
Algebra is a quantitative way of establishing relationships between different variables.
There are regular rules and procedures to simplify these relationships, so you can find the fundamental descriptive relationship.
This allows you to then find the optimum value for the variable you are concerned with.
With practice, the procedures, and processes become easier to use and to set up.
I love history and find American history especially interesting because it is so relevant to the life we live today.
If we look closely, we can see how past events have shaped the world we live in, and we can see how events today might shape the world of the future.
The fascinating thing about history is to imagine what it was really like to live in those times and how it felt to witness those great events.
I have read over 2000 books on a variety of subjects, but mostly history, philosophy, science, religion, and the arts. Reading the writings of noteworthy people is a way to improve our thinking and better ourselves. Reading an essay is like having lunch with a famous person from history and listening to them explain their opinions. What better way is there to improve our minds and our ability? How else could we share such distinguished company? As Dennis Wholey said, "We are the same person we were five years ago, except for the people we have met and the books we have read."
I play piano and have produced 20 albums of original and traditional music. I can sight read fake books and have a good understanding of music theory.
I have an engineering degree and am very good with Algebra and mathematics.
Pre-Algebra is setting up the concepts and relationships between variables to model real life situations.
Basic math concepts like order of precedence of operators and solving for a variable are explored.
At first it can seem difficult, but with practice it becomes easier to understand.
I worked for 25 years in video post production and VFX. I have my own youtube channel with over 160 entries. I am familiar with all phases of video production.

DeKalb County authorities arrested a man and a woman Wednesday in connection with a shooting that caused a man to wreck his car on the way to the hospital.
Police followed a tip and found Shawn Ray Willis and Jennifer Noel Lawson walking down County Road 165 on Lookout Mountain and arrested the couple, DeKalb County Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy Mike Edmondson said.
Both suspects were taken to the DeKalb County Jail for questioning, but no charges had been issued as of late Wednesday, Edmondson said.
Local and state police spent two days hunting for the couple after they became suspects in the Monday shooting of Jeffery Steven Williams, police said.
Williams was found Monday afternoon inside his wrecked car with a gunshot wound in his arm, sheriff's office spokeswoman Stanna Guice said. Police believe he was trying to drive himself to the hospital when he veered off the road just outside the Fort Payne city limits.
Williams was shot with a handgun about two miles from the scene of his car accident, but Edmondson didn't know if he was shot while he was driving.
Authorities said Williams is in serious condition at Huntsville Hospital but continuing to improve.
Willis and Williams knew each other, but their relationship hasn't been clarified yet, Edmondson said.
Police believe Lawson is dating Williams and was with him when the shooting occurred.
When officers from Desoto State Park found Willis and Lawson, they were near the Alpine Bridge, which is about two miles from where agents found their vehicle on Tuesday, Guice said.

Before posting you movies i suggest you practise on making them more smooth, creative and generally better, I can tell your new to this stuff and obviously you enjoy it, So carry on making movies. Try more frames with more smooth movements. The back round looked like it was done in MS Paint. This isn't a diss or nothing it is constructive criticism and i hope you will become a good animator.
Thanks for that advice, when I was animating this I actually thought it was going too fast so I tried to make it slower. Thank you and I will follow your advice next time!

RANDOM LAKE, WI (WHBL) - Tablets are back to full use in the Random Lake School District. It was over a month ago when a former employee was charged for stealing hundreds of tablets valued at $180,000 just before the start of the new school year.
Superintendent Tom Malmstadt said it was a team effort between vendors, faculty, staff and community members to get new tablets up and running. Elementary students had tablets in use by the fifth day of the school year, while middle school students waited another week to get theirs.
While the tablets were not individually insured, Malmstadt said they are working to cover the cost of the new devices through the district's liability insurance. So far, indications are that this insurance will cover the cost.
The tablets are part of the district's one on one learning environment for its students. Currently only the elementary and middle school students have tablets. Malmstadt said high school students will get a device next school year.

Alabama — Last summer, African-American man Worcy Crawford passed away at the age of 92. If you are unfamiliar with the name, you aren't the only one.
With his passing, a civil rights story of epic proportions went untold.
When people think of buses and the civil rights era, they think of Rosa Parks. But many forget that there was a man who was busing around all the Blacks during the time of segregation. This man didn't only bus Blacks, he owned the buses.

Wiggolly Dantas (BRA) claimed the Sooruz Lacanau Pro title downing fellow countryman Alejo Muniz in the 35-minute final to achieve his best result of the year and his second ASP Men's Star-Series title in a closely fought final on a day which saw epic conditions for the grand finale to the 31st edition of the Sooruz Lacanau Pro an Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) sanctioned event.
Excellent surfing conditions continued for the final day of action at the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) Sooruz Lacanau Pro with clean off-shore winds and peaks in the 4-5ft (1.2m) range pumping in with the incoming tide. Event officials waited for the optimum swell window for the running of today's heats resulting in an action packed display of futuristic power surfing for the large crowds lining the shores.
Wiggolly Dantas 20, surfed a perfectly controlled final to lead from start to finish despite the efforts of Muniz to close the gap. Starting off solidly it was not until the halfway mark that Dantas hooked onto a long peeling right to lay down a series of powerful backhand turns to snatch a 7.83 and consolidate his lead and leave his opponent searching for a reply.
"It is so amazing right now to surf against one of my best friends in the final and to win the contest and I just went out there to surf my heat and do my best and it all worked out and I am really stoked now."
Click here for a complete recap from ASP.
It was an all Quiksilver final, but Wiggolly took down Alejo Muniz to win the event.

I suppose this comes at a bad time, especially since the series finale for Dexter just aired and reviews have been astoundingly bad. However, I had the pleasure of watching the pilot for Masters of Sex the other day, and it blew my mind away. For me, I think Showtime has just the right blend of drama, comedy, sex and violence to make it refreshing, unlike some shows out there that have sex just for the sex, and violence just for the violence. For me, anyway.
Here are a list of shows that I think you should definitely give a shot (P.S. NSFW-ish trailers):
Frank Gallagher is the proud single dad of six smart, spirited and independent kids, who without him would be…perhaps better off. William H. Macy and Emmy Rossum star in the wildly engaging and fearlessly twisted new Showtime Original Series SHAMELESS. When Frank's not at the bar, he's stirring up trouble — so it's a good thing he has Fiona, his eldest daughter who keeps the family together. The Gallaghers may not have much in the way of money or rules, but they know who they are —- and they're absolutely, wildly and unapologetically SHAMELESS.
Based on the UK series of the same name. This is undoubtedly my favourite drama/comedy of all time.
The series follows Carrie Mathison, a Central Intelligence Agency operations officer who, after conducting an unauthorized operation in Iraq, is put on probation and reassigned to the CIA's Counterterrorism Center in Langley, Virginia. In Iraq, Carrie was warned by an asset that an American prisoner of war had been turned by al-Qaeda.
The series revolves around Hank Moody, a novelist plagued by personal demons. He blames his longtime writer's block on reasons ranging from the hedonism of Los Angeles to the departure of his girlfriend Karen. Hank constantly deals with the consequences of his inability to say "no" to drugs, sex, and alcohol while trying to show his family that he can be a good, responsible, caring father to Becca and a monogamous partner to Karen.
The series centered on Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall), a blood spatter pattern analyst for a fictional Miami Metro Police Department (based on the real life Miami-Dade Police Department) who also leads a secret life as aserial killer, hunting down criminals who have slipped through the cracks of justice.
Okay, so I think it's unanimous that the series finale was an absolute trainwreck, but let's not forget the amazing first five seasons that Dexter gave us.
Every day is a matter of life and death in a hectic New York City hospital, but for Nurse Jackie that's the easiest part. Between chronic back pain that won't quit, and a personal life on the constant edge of collapse, it's going to take a white lie here, a bent rule there, and a handful of secret strategies to relieve the pain, and stay one step ahead of total disaster. Three-time Emmy® winner Edie Falco stars in the critically acclaimed Showtime Original Comedy Series NURSE JACKIE.
I think Showtime shows have a tendency to go on for a little too long past its "Best by" date. Nurse Jackie went a little stale for me towards season 5, probably due to the showrunners leaving the show, but the first 4 seasons are absolutely incredible.
The show takes place in Los Angeles, California, where Ray Donovan (Liev Schreiber), who is originally from South Boston, is a "fixer" for the powerful law firm Goldman & Drexler that represents the rich and famous. However, he experiences his own problems when his father, Mickey Donovan (Jon Voight), is unexpectedly released from prison and FBI agents try to find him in order to bring down Ray and his associates.
Fiona Wallice is a therapist who has conceived of a new "modality" of therapy: the titular "web therapy". In her estimation, the traditional "50 minute hour" version of therapy gives people too much leeway to talk about irrelevant things. By dramatically shortening session time, she hopes to get results more quickly. Her sessions take place via webcam over the internet using iChat. They are taped in the hope of attracting investors into promoting her new technique as a worldwide therapy option.
Charming, fast talking Marty Kaan and his crack team of management consultants know how to play the corporate game better than anyone, by using every dirty trick in the book to woo powerful CEOs and close huge deals. In the board rooms, barrooms and bedrooms of the power elite, corruption is business as usual and everyone's out for themselves first. Nothing is sacred in this scathing, irreverent satire of corporate America today. Outrageous, subversive and wildly funny, HOUSE OF LIES stars Academy Award® nominee Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell.
The newest show in this list! MASTERS OF SEX is a one-hour drama starring Emmy® and BAFTA Award nominee Michael Sheen and acclaimed actress Lizzy Caplan, who will portray the real-life pioneers of the science of human sexuality, William Masters and Virginia Johnson. The series chronicles the unusual lives, romance, and pop culture trajectory of Masters and Johnson. Their research touched off the sexual revolution and took them from a midwestern teaching hospital in St. Louis to the cover of Time magazine and nearly a dozen appearances on Johnny Carson's couch.
Early reviews have been positive, and I'm expecting this series to only get better with time!
In other news…
A teaser trailer for the upcoming psychological horror series Penny Dreadful gives us tiny glimpses of what to expect. Sallow skin and black fur. Here's the series description: Some of literature's most terrifying characters, including Dr. Frankenstein, Dorian Gray and iconic figures from the novel Dracula are lurking in the darkest corners of Victorian London. PENNY DREADFUL is a frightening psychological thriller that weaves together these classic horror origin stories into a new adult drama.
Let's hope this one is another gem, and we'll have another fantastic horror series that I can scare myself senseless with. On a similar note, who's excited for American Horror Story?
"Penny Dreadful" is created, written and executive produced by three-time Oscar nominee John Logan (Hugo, The Aviator, Gladiator) and executive produced by Logan's Desert Wolf Productions, along with Oscar winner Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Skyfall) and Pippa Harris (Revolutionary Road), both of Neal Street. Of the eight episodes, the first two will be directed by Juan Antonio Bayona, who helmed The Orphanage and the acclaimed film The Impossible, starring Naomi Watts in her Oscar-nominated performance. Let us know what you think!

Hi Readers! Whoa Selena!
Looooove the reader photos!
Love Selena, but her face is too young looking. She has the body of a playboy model, but the cute face of a 13 year old girl. Kills it for me.
Great singer though
What is going on with Vin's pants?
Hello, cute readers!
If #2 is who I think he is, :D forever!
#4, Ron Swanson's cubicle bat cave! Love it!
Reader #2 is giving all sorts of great FACE in that pic! Props to you, my good sir.
Love Selena's jumpsuit.
Still in denial about Paul Walker
Christopher Cruz, do I see you??
I feel like I've see Reader #1 before...can't figure out if for reals or on here. ..
Great pix everyone!
Dude face in fromnt of Tom at the hockey game is killing me!
And I totally thought Selena Gomez was Cindy Crawford at first, until I read the part about no bra
I don't dig the way Selena gets dressed, probably 7 out of 10 times. This is one of those times.
5 people would have cared if it was Vin Diesel who died, and they are all employees.
Love seeing the reader photos!!
Tooooper!!!!! Tooooper Madison!!!! Come out to play!!!!
He LOVES reader photos!!!
LOL that guy totally just realised Tom Hanks is sitting behind him.
Awesome readers! Ron Swanson!
I love Selena's look there.
Hi readers!
I think that's the rapper son.
Tom Hanks looks like he's had work done or is trying to convince us that all is great with he and Rita.
They seem to have an open relationship and Rita seems to be very okay with it.
If they are both happy and fulfilled, whatever. i wish we could stop judging people sexually if all parties are on board and complacent with it, and it harms no one who isn't able to acknowledge and accept the parameters.
holy shit. Rita Wilson has reverse aged. at least in this pic. i'll have what she's having. if that's an open marriage, i'll have that too.
reader #4 looks like he will kill you instantly if you forget to put into the office coffee kitty.
How is it there were never any blinds about a 33 year old Paul Walker dating a 16 yr old girl?

There have been a series of significant and highly publicised events recently in Vatican-Jewish relations.
Pope Benedict put his predecessor Pius XII along the road to Roman Catholic sainthood last month, angering many Jews who accused the wartime pope of turning a blind eye to the Nazi Holocaust. Benedict defended the move this week during his first visit to Rome's synagogue, which prompted Israel to ask the pope to open up the Vatican archives covering Pius' reign between 1939-1958.
But behind the scenes, out of the spotlight, the Catholic church and Jewish state have restarted efforts to put to rest a property dispute in the Holy Land that goes back much further than World War Two or Israel's founding in 1948. Churches acquired large amounts of land around Jerusalem as the Ottoman empire went into decline from the early 19th century. Today, many official Israeli buildings sit on leased church land. But agreement on the legal status of these properties has evaded governments and popes for decades.
After Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took office early last year, his Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon was made pointman in a push to settle the decades-old debate. Ayalon was at the Vatican last month to try to narrow divides over six religious sites, including what is believed by Christians to be the Cenacle of the Last Supper, whose future status remains uncertain. Negotiating teams held a meeting again this month, which ended with the vague statement that they "did useful work in atmosphere of cordaility" and that they would meet again. Ayalon heads to the Vatican again in May.

BioRhythm is a premier product line formulated with fitness goals, not production cost, in mind. Our synergistic compounds and recommended stacks are put in place with the singular goal of "more results faster". Users will see unmatched dosing of trademarked or patented ingredients that back up that slogan. The end result will be the reflection in the mirror you've been waiting for.
BioRhythm was founded on the most basic principles of product development: You Get What You Pay For… Competition for shelf space in retail stores and internet sites is at all time high for dietary supplements. Most supplement companies fight for that space by appearing to offer a premium product with bargain prices. However, logic tells us that if you find a Ferrari with a Kia price tag, something is wrong. The same goes for electronics, clothes - - and yes - - sports nutrition supplements. The difference is when your car breaks down, your shirt rips or you spend 35 minutes waiting for a picture to download on your new computer that was 50% off…you can just go get another. Unfortunately, you only have one body and you only have 'today' once. Don't waste another 'today' trying to get professional results with a buy one get one sale.
"The time is right, the customers are educated, and the industry needs not only a product, but an entire line of sports nutrition products with a no holds barred attitude. We developed each item with the fitness goal first. Pricing was a secondary concern. The fact is each product is a bargain price in terms of results (and satisfaction) per dollar spent."
Give us a try. Feel free to call or email with questions, concerns, or even suggestions. All of our senior staff members have at least a decade of professional sports supplement experience.

BioRhythm - Kre-Alkalyn Compound pH-Specific Creatine - 240 Capsules
BioRhythm Kre-Alkalyn Compound contains pH specific creatine. Creatine technology has advanced tremendously in the last twelve years. Its performance enhancing potential has been well documented with countless satisfied users. BioRhythm's new Kre-Alkalyn Compound gives you the only patented creatine for superior results.
The newly patented pH buffered Kre-Alkalyn solves most of the creatine dilemmas. Kre-Alkalyn features no loading, no bloating, no stomach discomfort, small serving size and is ten times as absorbable as creatine. BioRhythm's Kre-Alkalyn Compound goes one step further and shuttles more glucose into the muscle cells yielding even greater strength gains, faster recovery times, superior stamina, and surging muscle pumps.
Kre-Alkalyn Ingredients
What Is Creatinine?Creatinine (kre-at-tin-neen): A creative anhydride formed by the metabolism of creatine and found in muscle tissue and blood and normally excreted in the urine as metabolic waste.
Creatine monohydrate, Creatine Ethyl Ester, Di-Creatine and Tri-Creatine Malate, as well as many others, represent significant breakthroughs in absorbability and muscle building potential. Yet all are limited by the common factor of conversion. Without the benefit of a synthesized buffering manufacturing process (patent #6,399,661) they may all convert to creatinine within minutes.
Creatinine is simply a useless metabolic by-product. A build up of this waste product may cause bloating, stomach and muscle cramps commonly associated with creatine supplementation.
Kre-Alkalyn Compound eliminates the necessary loading phase and the associated inconveniences of conventional creatines.
The new Kre-Alkalyn Compound represents the best creatine has to offer plus the benefits of muscle pump and vascularity support. Add this anabolic agent to any pre-existing workout routine or supplement stack for increase bioavailability.
For an absolutely supercharged workout and long lasting muscle engorgement, try stacking Kre-Alkalyn Compound with BioRhythm's great-tasting Arnge Krush.
The research behind the Kre-Alkalyn patent clearly shows that creatine's speed of conversion to useless creatinine is directly related to the pH of the liquid used for mixing. A low pH yields instant creatinine conversion, while slowing as pH increases. Kre-Alkalyn is the only creatine synthesized on a molecular level to achieve this stability.
Kre-Alkalyn Compound utilizes 1.5 grams of the super creatine Kre-Alkalyn per serving. Zero creatinine conversion means 100% bioavailability. Each serving contains the creatine monohydrate equivalent of 15 grams - with zero side effects.
Kre-Alkalyn Plus More...In all of its glory is still just creatine. Kre-Alkalyn Compound combines effective and well researched cell volumizers to transform any creatine into a powerhouse of strength and size waiting to explode.
Kre-Alkalyn Compound6,8-Thioctic Acid (R and S Isomers Alpha Lipoic Acid)
Vanadyl Sulfate
Chromium Picolinate
Experience all the power of Kre-Alkalyn with the added benefits of optimized absorption, vascularity, and muscular expansion.
About BioRhythmBioRhythm is proud to offer the first line of Advanced Dietary Supplements pharmaceutically formulated with results, not production costs, in mind. As a result you will see features such as trademark and patented ingredients, extra strength doses and synergistic compounds and stacks. The benefit is simply more results faster.

Megan Martha "Meg" White (born December 10, 1974) is an American drummer from Detroit best known for her work in the Detroit rock duo The White Stripes with her former husband Jack White, to whom she was married from 1996 to 2000. The pair were divorced before the White Stripes broke through to international fame. She married guitarist Jackson Smith, son of musicians Patti Smith and Fred "Sonic" Smith, in 2009, but divorced him in 2013.
She has not been active in the music industry since the White Stripes' breakup in 2011.
Early life[edit]
Megan Martha White was born in Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan to Walter Hackett White, Jr. and Catherine White. She grew up in the Detroit area with her parents and sister Heather.
The White Stripes[edit]
Meg's then-husband Jack White spent much of the 1990s hopping from band to band. Meg first tried playing drums in 1997. In Jack's words, "When she started to play drums with me, just on a lark, it felt liberating and refreshing. There was something in it that opened me up." The two then began calling themselves The Red and White Stripes (because Meg favored peppermint candies) and soon played their first gig at the Gold Dollar in Detroit.[1] In keeping live performances to three basic elements, Jack did the guitar and vocal work while she played drums.[2]
Jack White has declared her to be the key component in the White Stripes' sound. In reference to her "primal" approach to drumming, she remarked, "That is my strength. A lot of drummers would feel weird about being that simplistic."
Though Jack White usually sang the lead vocals, Meg White sang lead on "In the Cold, Cold Night", from the band's fourth album, Elephant; "Passive Manipulation", from the band's fifth album, Get Behind Me Satan; "Who's a Big Baby", the B-side to "Blue Orchid"; "St. Andrew (This Battle Is in the Air)", from the band's sixth album Icky Thump; and she also sang the popular Christmas song "Silent Night" on the single Candy Cane Children. Both Meg and Jack White sing vocals on the tracks "Hotel Yorba" and "This Protector" from White Blood Cells, "Rated X" from the "Hotel Yorba" single, "Well It's True That We Love One Another" on Elephant, and "Rag and Bone" from Icky Thump. The first time Meg sang along on a White Stripes record was with Jack on "Your Southern Can is Mine" from De Stijl.
On February 2, 2011, The White Stripes announced their retirement on their official website.
Other work[edit]
Meg White has also appeared on the cover of Whirlwind Heat's single "Pink", in a Detroit Cobras music video "Cha Cha Twist" as Little Red Riding Hood, and appeared with Jack White in a segment of Jim Jarmusch's 2003 film Coffee and Cigarettes.
Jack and Meg White guest starred on The Simpsons in an episode titled "Jazzy and the Pussycats", which first aired on September 17, 2006.[3] She has done some modeling for Marc Jacobs' 2006 Spring line.[4] Two of her pictures appeared in the March 2006 issue of ELLE.
Meg White was chosen by Bob Odenkirk to compose a drum theme for one of his characters in the 2006 film Let's Go to Prison.[5] White also has a song dedicated to her by Ray LaMontagne entitled "Meg White", which appears on LaMontagne's album Gossip in the Grain.
Personal life[edit]
In the early 1990s, Meg White worked as a bartender at Memphis Smoke, a restaurant in downtown Royal Oak (a Detroit suburb), where she first met musician/songwriter John Anthony Gillis. They were married on September 21, 1996.[6] Gillis chose to take her last name, and has subsequently become famous by the name Jack White.[citation needed] They were divorced on March 24, 2000.[7]
Meg White is by her own admission "very shy", and gives few interviews. She guards her privacy in a manner that she identifies with Bob Dylan, whom she admires.[8] In her time away from the band, Meg enjoys photography and amateur taxidermy. Animals are also a motif in her photography (mainly album covers and music videos). Among those photographed with her are a snake, rats (the video for "Hotel Yorba" and the back cover of Elephant), a cow, rabbits, and raccoons (the 7 inch cover of the "Denial Twist" single).
On September 11, 2007, the White Stripes were forced to cancel 18 tour dates due to Meg White's acute anxiety.[9] The following day, these problems caused the duo to cancel the remainder of their 2007 UK tour dates as well.[10] She recovered and appeared onstage during an encore set at a Detroit show with The Raconteurs in June 2008.
In May 2009, Meg White married guitarist Jackson Smith, son of musicians Patti Smith and Fred "Sonic" Smith. The wedding took place in Nashville, Tennessee, in a small ceremony in Jack White's backyard. Also married at the same ceremony was Jack's fellow Raconteurs bandmate Jack Lawrence to Jo McCaughey.[11] Meg White and Jackson Smith divorced in 2013.[12]
In the White Stripes, Meg White used a red Ludwig drum kit with a red and white peppermint swirl on the resonant heads of the toms and bass drum.
On the Icky Thump tour, the bass drum head design was switched to a button; and, during the From the Basement: The White Stripes recordings, it was switched to an image of Meg's hand holding an apple (from the Get Behind Me Satan cover).
She also used a pair of Paiste 14-inch (36 cm) Signature Medium Hi-Hats, a Paiste 19-inch (48 cm) Signature Power Crash, and a Paiste 22-inch (56 cm) 2002 Ride, starting in 2006.
Meg's white Pearl Export bass drum complete with original peppermint-painted bass drum that she used with the band's first show in 1997 until 2002, and complete Pearly Queen outfit as featured in the photos for the Icky Thump album, was used in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame "Women Who Rock" exhibition.

Florida Bright Futures Scholarship is a Florida lottery-funded scholarship program that rewards students for their academic achievements during high school by offering funding for the pursuit of postsecondary educational and career goals in Florida.
Applicants for a Florida Bright Futures Scholarship must complete the Florida Financial Aid Application prior to their high school graduation. Eligibility and application criteria are available from your high school guidance counselor, or the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program web site. When completing the application you will need to add FGCU's school code in order for us to receive your information. FGCU's Bright Futures State School Code is 361.
The Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program consists of two awards for Undergraduate students. Each award has its own academic eligibility requirements, award amounts and funding length. A student may receive funding for only one award. The highest award earned by the student will be selected.
For the Academic Year 2013-2014 Bright Futures will pay a flat rate per credit:
If a student drops a class after the advertised add/drop date, (see Academic Calendar) you are required by state of Florida to repay FGCU for any credits for which Bright Futures paid. Fees and holds will be immediately placed on the account the moment the class is dropped.
If you do not repay for Bright Futures funded classes dropped or withdrawn by the end of the current academic year, you will not be eligible for renewal or funding for the subsequent academic year.
In order to renew your scholarship for the following academic year, it is necessary that all of the renewal requirements are met at the end of the spring semester. The following chart summarizes the academic renewal criteria for each Florida Bright Futures Scholarship:
Florida Academic Scholars Award
Florida Medallion Scholars Award
Florida Gold Seal Vocational Scholars Award
Minimum Cumulative GPA (unrounded & unweighted)
Minimum Hours Required Per Term if funded Full Time (12+ hours)
12 semester
12 semester
12 semester
Minimum Hours Required Per Term, if funded Three-quarter Time (9-11 hours)
9 semester
9 semester
9 semester
Minimum Hours Required Per Term, if funded Half Time
6 semester
6 semester
6 semester
* Florida Academic Scholars will renew as Florida Medallion Scholars with 2.75-2.99 GPA.
If a student's cumulative GPA was less than a 2.75 and he/she was ineligible for funding, the student may apply for restoration in an academic year after which the 2.75 cumulative GPA requirement was met. (The 2.75 GPA must be met before the fall term for which the student is applying.)
A student who does not meet the minimum credit hour requirement during the academic year (fall through spring) or the summer after spring evaluation will not be eligible to receive the scholarship in the upcoming year but may apply for RESTORATION at the Bright Futures website at the end of the following year.
For more information about restoration, visit the How to be restored page on the state's website.
An eligible student who did not receive funding during the previous academic year and would now like to apply for scholarship funding is a reinstating student.
Summer grades and hours earned after spring evaluation may be used if necessary to meet the scholarship renewal requirements. However, this option is only applicable to first year in college students receiving Bright Futures. The student must request that a financial aid officer submit a grade and hours update to the Bright Futures office indicating the adjusted cumulative GPA and/or hours.
If a student attended another college or university and has transfer credits, they may request that the transfer credits be used in the cumulative GPA calculation. Please email Barbara Font at email@example.com.
For more information about reinstatement, visit the How to be Reinstated page on the state's website.
