Bridesmaids is one of those movies where I thought it was just going to be a stupid comedy and it turned out to be really good. Yesterday was actally the secod time I'd seen it, but I forgot how funny it is as well as how adorable Chris O'Dowd's character is in this. Kristen Wiig is absolutely hilarious, she goes all out into the scenes an jokes and it's worth noting. Melissa McCarthy and Ellie Kemper are fantastic in this as well, they're both really funny, but also do well in their roles. Some parts of the movie feel a little awkward, and one part is really gross, but there are so many hilarious little scenes and moments and details. The kind of goofy/stupid movie you can watch when you don't feel like thinking.

ESW Proclamation by the Governor
National Earth Science Week Website
Annual Earth Science Week field trip
National Earth Science Week (ESW) 2013 encourages people everywhere to explore the natural world and learn about the geosciences. The Nevada Bureau of Mines & Geology (NBMG) welcomes you to participate in its sixteenth annual Earth Science Week field trip. In keeping with the National ESW theme, "Mapping Our World," this year's trip will focus on identifying rocks and minerals, then mapping the geology around NBMG's Great Basin Science Sample and Records Library (GBSSRL) on the DRI campus. Dr. Christopher Ross will also be in attendance to help us identify native plants. You'll be able to collect volcanic rocks and several minerals that are characteristic of the hydrothermal (geothermal) alteration associated with volcanoes that were active in the Reno area about 16 million years ago.
The complete field trip guide is available at this site: (trip guide).
We will start promptly at 8:00 a.m. at the Great Basin Science Sample and Records Library, the building for information, publication sales, geologic and topographic maps, and geological samples of the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology, on the west side of the campus of the Desert Research Institute, 2175 Raggio Parkway, Reno, NV 89512. Please meet there beginning at 7:30 a.m. and no later than 7:45 a.m. if you would like a preview of the rocks that you'll be able to collect.
The trip is free and open to the public. Be sure to bring your own water, lunch, sunscreen, hat, first-aid kit, walking stick, gloves, camera, binoculars, bag or bucket for collecting samples, safety glasses if you use a hammer, and a GPS receiver (optional).
The day's activity will involve hiking and climbing around rocks so wear appropriate outdoor clothing and sturdy shoes or hiking boots.
Field trip participants wanting a tour of the Great Basin Science Sample and Records Library, the new building for information, publication sales, geologic and topographic maps, and geological samples of the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology, can meet there, 2175 Raggio Parkway, Reno, NV 89512 (on the west side of the Desert Research Institute campus) at 7:15 a.m. Directions and a map to this facility are at this link: http://www.nbmg.unr.edu/Departments/GBSSRL/docs/GBSSRL_map_directions.pdf. We will leave the GBSSRL location in Reno at 8:00 a.m.
Come visit our publication sales office anytime between 7:15 a.m. and 7:45 a.m. on the day of the field trip.
Mapping discounts—October 12 and 13 only (7:15–7:45)
All of the guidebooks described in the link below will be on sale for $20 each:
You can help Food Bank of Northern Nevada
Bring in a donation of non-perishable food items and we will give you some topo map gift wrap to use for the holidays. Look for the FBNN collection bin just inside the door of the sales office. Here are some suggested items to bring—any of these would be very much appreciated:
While visiting our office, you can also celebrate National Fossil Day (October 16) by picking up some free games and activities on fossils.
This year's field trip will appeal to people of all ages. Please sign up to attend on either Saturday, Oct 12th, or Sunday, Oct 13th (the same field trip is repeated on two consecutive days). You must sign up (sign-up) online prior to the trip and sign a waiver form: (waiver). Please print out a paper copy, sign and date, and submit prior to the field trip or bring to the field trip meeting place.
There will be several geologists in attendance to help answer your questions about geology and identify a variety of rocks. There will also be an opportunity to learn more about geocaching and EarthCaching—a high-tech treasure hunting game using GPS devices. If you have a hand-held GPS unit, bring it.

Print for inflation Abe said. No problem Abe said.

Japan struggles- 'Abenomics' Is Going to Fail: Mr. Yen
Printing money and broad fiscal stimulus isn't going to work because of deep structural issues within the Japanese economy. Specifically the country's population keeps getting older while the economy is also becoming more and more integrated with China's. Deflationary winds are gale force and steady.
The Japanese Economic Double Down, Damn the Torpedos, Full Speed Ahead!
Japan's new Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is not messing around. He's not priming the pump, he wants a gusher caused by massive inflationary pressure. This has always worked well in the past of course. Sure am glad China and Japan keep sparing over those rocks in the South China Sea. Thankfully nobody ever goes to war for economic reasons.

Bette Chambers Part 3
In Part 3 of Bette Chambers' interview, Mrs. Chambers reads an article written for her 80th birthday in "The View." She relates the important work of garden clubs, which corresponds with her philosophy to "leave a place more beautiful than you found it." She concludes the interview by talking about her children and grandchildren.
Bette Chambers Part 2
In Part 2 of Bette Chambers' interview, Mrs. Chambers talks about her courtship and early married life with her late husband, Mel Chambers. She recounts many of the businesses and people of Ellicott City along with her life living in an historic house, Toll House, and her work as an interior designer.
Bette Chambers Part 1
Helane Jeffreys
Helane Jeffreys talks about the Women's Center in Columbia and the important role it has played in her life. She was a Columbia pioneer who was instrumental in starting the first co-operative nursery in town, Wilde Lake Co-op Nursery, and also the Open University of Columbia, which taught classes of the New Age Movement (e.g. massage therapy, meditation).
Claudia Littmann
Claudia Littmann talks about growing up in Wilde Lake covering such topics as her neighborhood, open classrooms, and local shops. Her close family ties and the good county schools brought her back to Howard County, when she started her own family.
Anita Fox
Anita Fox moved to Columbia in 1969 after visiting the New Town on several occasions. She recalls the Exhibit Center's tours and watching the area grow from a country setting of 4,000 residents to a bustling suburb. Her many community activities are discussed, which include many firsts for Columbia, as well as her "on the side" chocolate business, Cordially Yours.
Alfred & Mary Bracey
Alfred and Mary Bracey have felt a sense of community in Columbia, ever since they moved there over 30 years ago. Maybe that is why, even after retiring from their jobs, they do not want to live anywhere else. The married couple talk about some of the places they have seen being built in town, as well as, some of the social and community groups they enjoy.
Liz Bobo
Liz Bobo recalls early Columbia and how it influenced her life, as well as, her activism and involvement in local organizations. Early Columbians, possibly through Jim Rouse's influence, had an idealistic approach to their town and government, and therefore many new non-profit organizations were created during that time. Ms. Bobo shares her thoughts about Columbia's amenities and also how she envisions the future of the city.
Gretchen Moore
Gretchen Moore was an "almost" pioneer to Columbia having moved here in 1972. She recounts her Long Reach and Owen Brown Village neighborhoods and the reasons why she felt such cohesiveness there. The concept of village centers and how they have changed throughout the years is talked about, as well as, her experiences with community groups, early shopping opportunities, and the amenities in Columbia.
Learn more about items mentioned in this podcast:
Eva Skrenta
Eva Skrenta moved to Columbia in 1974 drawn to the concept of a new town and an open, integrated community. She became active in the community through her homeowner's association, politics and work at Columbia Medical Plan. Skrenta's family emigrated to the United States after World War II. Skrenta talks about her father, Jerzy Kajetanski, a Holocaust survivor and an artist, his move to Columbia and her role in arranging local showings of his art and of his work being at the Holocaust Museum in Washington DC.

Featured review from Goldstar Member

I was pleasantly surprised that this is a "clean" comedy venue. The manager and main comic both said they are Christian, which I personally appreciated. We ate in the restaurant first, which was only so-so. Since there is a 2-item minimum in the club, we should have just ordered appetizers and drinks there. The show was good, though the crowd was small, so every person sort of stood out. One woman was being completely obnoxious, trying to "banter" with the comics. But that wasn't their fault! I think this venue will get better with more experience and time. Well worth going.
July 5-6, 2013: Independence Day Comedy With Charlie Speez
July 12-13, 2013: Edwin San Juan*
Edwin San Juan, one of the "original" Los Angeles-based comedians, is well received from multicultural audiences of all ages, both internationally and at home. He has entertained U.S. troops with the Around the World in Eight Days USO campaign and has appeared on multiple Showtime Comedy specials, such as Edwin San Juan Presents, Pacific Rim Comedy, on which, as creator and executive producer, he showcases some of the funniest Asian comedians around today. He also had over a million hits on YouYube, making it one of the most requested clips amongst comedy fans around the world!
- *July 19-20, 2013: Chris Cope
- Like a cherub-faced demon, Chris cope commands audiences by blending FDR's likability and Churchill's penchant for substance abuse with their German counterpart's aspirations for global domination. His approachable demeanor, sharp wit, and talent for storytelling disarms and delights, only to leave audiences wide open to fall prey to his biting sarcasm. Experience working crowds of a wide variety enables him to adapt mid-set; he often improvises and goes off script to mold his act to the desires of his audience. Chris' ability to endear himself to any audience makes him a comedy club favorite nationwide.
Featuring comedians Jessie Johnson, Brian Mullan and Dale Sackrider II.
July 26-27, 2013: Jerry Rocha
- Jerry Rocha is one of the hottest comics on the scene, constantly on tour and leaving a trail of busted guts and broken hearts in his wake. Well, not really, but he has been a featured performer on SiTV, The Latino Laugh Festival, was the subject of a half-hour documentary on the Travel Channel, and was a semi-finalist on Season 7 of_ Last Comic Standing_ on NBC. He has worked at comedy clubs all over the country, and is now living in L.A. His routine is all over the map, and he is able to make light of any subject, making people laugh at things they normally wouldn't, and also making them laugh at the easiest target … himself.

I decided not to try to get into the beta just because I want to experience it when it's done, and not have things yanked out from under me while Blizzard works out the kinks. Also, I'm an altaholic - I already have names reserved for at least six new characters once Cataclysm hits - so I'd rather not go through quests over and over on beta only to have to do them yet again on live. I plan to do Loremaster once it's tracked by zone anyway, so trust me, I'll be experiencing everything eventually. ^_^
Also, I'm not great with numbers when it comes to WoW, so I wouldn't be much help when it came to reporting on new abilities and giving feedback as to what needed to be changed. But I am thankful for those who are; it means we'll get a better and more balanced game when it's done.
eyeball2452 said...
I agree. I'm excited to roll new toons for the 1-60 content in Cataclysm. Unfortunately, as has been discussed on the podcasts, much of that content is still a work in progress.
I have many other hobbies, so I don't mind waiting until November to play Cataclysm. I enjoy my time in game, but it's not the only focus of my life.
I want to be a noob again. My very first character in WoW was a Tauren Hunter. After figuering out how to grab a quest then turning around to see all of Red Cloud Mesa sloping down from the village was just awesome. The way the plainstriders were pacing back and forth while the well turned methodically in the distance was hypnotic. That experiance was literally the reason I played WoW for so many years. I have done many things since then but none of them ever made me stop and stare the way Red Cloud Mesa did because, for that time only, I was a true WoW noob.
When I sign in to Cataclysm as a Worgen Rogue(neither of which I have been) I want to have as close to that same experience as possible. That is why I am avoiding the Beta.

T. A. "Al" Larson* - 1995 - Outstanding Former Faculty
History Department
For almost 60 years, T. A. Larson has been "Mr. Wyoming History." He has been a university professor, scholar, lobbyist for appreciation of Wyoming's history, and state legislator. After studying at the University of Colorado, he was awarded his doctorate in 1936 at the University of Illinois with a specialty in medieval history. He was offered a position at the University of Wyoming on condition that he develop a course on Wyoming history. Thus a medieval scholar was on his way to becoming the expert on Wyoming history.
Dr. Larson headed the History Department for 21 years and was director of the School of American Studies for 10 years. He authored several books, including an award-winning textbook on Wyoming history. He is estimated to have taught over 16,000 University of Wyoming students.
"T. A. Larson interacted remarkably with students, making almost a ritual of being available in his office, eight hours a day. 'Mr. Chips' could hardly do more." -William Steckel Professor Emeritus, History
*In loving memory.

A few weeks ago, I did a giveaway for some mushrooms that people seemed to really like. And this makes sense. People like free stuff. People especially like free kitchen stuff.
So I decided to start a new series here on Macheesmo called Tuesday Treats. The idea is pretty simple:
I give you guys stuff on Tuesdays. Not every Tuesday. But at least once a month.
I've been hesitant of doing giveaways on Macheesmo because I didn't want to be over-ran with products. Turns out that if you are giving stuff away, companies want you to give their stuff away. Here's what I promise about these giveaways though: Most of the things for Tuesday Treats will be purchased by me. It's just a thank you from me to you for reading.
If I do giveaway things that I get for free then I'll disclose that and also vigorously test the product before giving it away.
These giveaways also aren't going to drag on for days like some do. They are quick. You'll only have twelve hours to enter and win.
Like this post, every Tuesday Treats post will go live at 7AM Eastern Time and I'll pick a winner at 7PM.
All you have to do to be entered to win any Tuesday Treat is leave a comment!
So without further ado, the first Tuesday Treat is two of these beauties:
I have to say that before I had a stick blender I didn't really get what all the fuss was about. I mean, can't you just use a normal blender?
Most of the time yes. But it's so much easier to just stick the blender in the pot and whirl up whatever you're blending. It makes clean-up easier and cuts down on your prep time pretty significantly. Plus, they are one of those things that maybe most people wouldn't buy for themselves but, I promise, you'll use it once you get your hands on it!
If you need some tips on what you could use your blender for, here's a few of my favorite recipes that I use my stick blender for:
Cauliflower Stilton Soup – Really creamy and delicious.
Butternut Squash Soup – This will be great in the fall.
Kidney Bean Soup – Really healthy soup that freezes well.
Homemade Mayo – You know my obsession with mayo these days.
Some other ideas that you could use your new blender for include smoothies, whipped cream, sauces like hollandaise, salad dressings…
I think you get the idea.
Leave a comment before 7PM Eastern time to have a chance to win one of two stick blenders!
Tuesday Treats are fun right?
UPDATE: Two random winners have been selected! Congrats to Margie and Kristi for winning the blenders!
Remember that the Tuesday Treat contests are only open for 12 hours, so if you're interested in having a chance to win, the best way to keep up is to subscribe to Macheesmo via email or via RSS. Following me on Twitter doesn't hurt either!

A massive selection of official images from Dario Argento's Dracula 3D has been loaded online.
An update of the classic Bram Stoker tale, this new Dracula represents horror master Argento's first swing at making a movie in 3D.
Previously, the maestro has stuck to more traditional (even old-fashioned) types of horror, most famously with the blood-soaked likes of Suspiria and Deep Red.
In Dracula 3D, Rutger Hauer takes on the iconic role of Van Helsing, while Argento's daughter Asia plays Drac victim Lucy.
The critics haven't been kind to Argento's more recent films, so it'll be interesting to see how he fares doing something a little bit different.
Check out a selection of the new images below, and head over to the film's official website for the full set…
Dracula 3D opens in 2012.

Bloody good? Or bloody awful? What do you think of Argento's decision to leap into 3D? Talk to us below...

In the new W September issue, Editor at Large Lynn Hirschberg handpicked eight fearless, fiercely talented actresses in their teens and 20's to profile as the central characters in some fall's most exciting films. Unlike other generations of actresses, non of these eight women are living in the margins of men. They're creating complex characters that are often at the center of the film.
Photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Martin shot the portraits featured on W's first-ever triple gatefold cover featuring Yaya DaCosta, Jennifer Lawrence, Greta Gerwig, Kat Dennings, Jessica Chastain, Emma Roberts, Zoe Kravitz, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
Below, a few highlights:
Jennifer Lawrence, whose breakout role in Winter's Bone is generating major Oscar buzz, headlines the feature: "Where are the boys? Where are the Robert Redfords and Paul Newmans of my age group? I love James Franco, but where's the next James Franco? Where are the hunks who can act."
Emma Roberts on future possibilities: "I don't know that I'd do a full-on nude scene ever. I've never had a full-on sex scene…but we'll see."
Kat Dennings on her female affinity: "I like girl power. I love the ladies"-As a kid growing up near Philadelphia, "I wanted to be Christopher Walken."
Zoe Kravitz on her approach to intimate scenes: "I'll make a sex scene as uncomfortable as I can just to break the ice."
Mary Elizabeth Winstead on sex scenes: "I prefer to do a love scene with someone I've just met."
Jessica Chastain on prepping for a role: "I went to some strip clubs just to be like, 'Okay there's nothing taboo about it."
Greta Gerwig on the awkwardness of sex: "I think a lot of sex is very awkward. Instances of awkward love making probably outspace instances of beautiful lovemaking, at least in my experience."
Yaya DaCosta on movies she would like to make: "The first movie I remember seeing was The Red Balloon, which is silent, and it made me feel things that I'd love to make other people feel."
The September issue is on newsstands nationally August 24th. Below, links to the complete story, and slideshow. Enjoy!

"Over the years, many artists have interpreted Star Wars in ways that extend well beyond anything we saw in the films. One of the most unique and intriguing interpretations that I have seen is in the work of Cedric Delsaux, who has cleverly integrated Star Wars characters and vehicles into stark urban, industrial - but unmistakably earthbound - environments. As novel and disruptive as his images are, they are also completely plausible." George Lucas

"Actually, it'll only be rotating if you use it on a laptop that has a built-in accelerometer, similar to the one found in the iPhone. But still, the fact that the new version of Firefox (Firefox) (3.6) can recognize your screen orientation and adapt accordingly is awesome and signifies that we'll see more and more accelerometer-equipped lappies in the future."

How to win friends by alienating people
The most harmful phrase you can use in search of a new idea is: 'without alienating….'
Whoever introduced this (greedy) instruction into briefing is responsible for lots of business folk wasting loads of shareholder money. They have single-handedly - I'm certain unwittingly – given our world some of the blandest, 'beigest' ideas we have seen. Ideas that are incapable of moving anyone. Except perhaps to flee the scene, flee the channel, or whatever other activity the idea barely interrupted.
And then had to compensate by banging away with bigger budgets - trying to breathe life into something that had little chance of success in the first place.
Here's my plea to you – and I hope you can infect other people with this thinking:
Please make sure your ideas alienate some people.
The truly great brands (and ideas) in our world stand for something distinctive. They have a point of view. A clear guiding philosophy. A very strong sense of what they believe in. That, in turn, informs how they do (and don't do) things; what they choose to do and choose not to do.
Typically, great ideas and brands polarise. They have some people for them. And some people against them. Which is a darn side better than the alternative - having no one care much about them at all.
The great research companies are replete with cases proving this. Why, you only have to think of Apple, Nike and Google to realise that as much as their detractors dislike them so their fans love them to a corresponding degree.
My all-time favourite example is a wonderful campaign from the UK for the processed meat stick Peperami. The brief was reputed to be: 'Piss off vegetarians'. And the resulting advertising was pure, joyful anarchy. See one of the ads here.
In my time on Meat & Livestock, the then CMO was the gutsy David Thomason. Brave enough to tell people that the difference between man and ape was the decision to eat Red Meat (or not). Brave enough to approve a brief that was essentially: 'Take the piss out of Hare Krishnas' (here). Did it work? You bet it did. It was part of a trilogy that won the Grand Prix of the Effectiveness awards. At the same time he encouraged a competing Agency to do the popular Sam Kekovich rants (here). Also an award winner.
Imagine what these brands and their fans would have been denied had someone - filled only with goodwill toward their fellow woman (better include 'or man' in order not to alienate anyone) had asked just that of their Agency - please don't alienate anyone…
For me, the short story is not a character sketch, a mouse trap, an epiphany, a slice of suburban life. It is the flowering of a symbol center. It is a poem grafted onto sturdier stock.

Never hire a research company again
Here are 2 blunt truths about marketing research (in all its forms):
People in research don't say what they mean and don't mean what they say.
Much of what passes for marketing research is simply pseudo-scientific mumbo-jumbo
Which, in turn, means you need to hire the absolute best researcher your money will buy. Unless the outcome's not that important. In which case, bank the money and go with your gut – better than a charlatan doing something half-baked in the name of research.
It's not that respondents are deliberately dishonest in research. Well, some actually are. But a good deal of the time, we – that's you and me, and people just like you and me – have no real idea why we did what we did. Why we thought the way we thought. Why we felt the way we felt. Often it's 'just so'.
When pushed hard enough – in front of a group of strangers – who could be blamed for blurting out a complete untruth? Better that than look a fool. And have you noticed how rational our thinking becomes when among strangers (actually, even when we're completely alone)? We hate admitting to being driven by forces we don't quite understand. That most of our decisions are 'feels right' or 'feels wrong'.
The very fact of talking about System 1 - where the bulk of our decision-making takes place - as our 'primitive/reptilian brain' makes it harder for us superior animals to admit that we avoid thinking wherever possible. That we rely on short cuts. That we're anything but rational.
So it needs a darn good researcher. The best your money can buy. The good ones are highly talented folk. They're open and able to discuss their way of working; their belief in what makes humans tick and respond the way they do. Truth is they're in short supply. They aren't everywhere. They're pretty special.
They're not companies. And not all companies have them. And they're not 'black box processes' – no matter the amount of validation.
So please, pick the most talented person you can afford. And much as you might enjoy participating, observing, taking copious notes, drawing conclusions and making inferences please remember this (and I say this with utmost humility):
You're likely paying a very different brain to yours to do something you probably can't do well - work out what people really mean when they don't mean what they say. When they, themselves, are not entirely sure what they mean.
Jorge Luis Borges: The Task of Art
The task of art is to transform what is continuously happening to us, to transform all these things into symbols, into music, into something which can last in man's memory. That is our duty. If we don't fulfill it, we feel unhappy. A writer or any artist has the sometimes joyful duty to transform all that into symbols. These symbols could be colors, forms or sounds. For a poet, the symbols are sounds and also words, fables, stories, poetry. The work of a poet never ends. It has nothing to do with working hours. Your are continuously receiving things from the external world. These must be transformed, and eventually will be transformed. This revelation can appear anytime. A poet never rests. He's always working, even when he dreams. Besides, the life of a writer, is a lonely one. You think you are alone, and as the years go by, if the stars are on your side, you may discover that you are at the center of a vast circle of invisible friends whom you will never get to know but who love you. And that is an immense reward.
Thx @robinsloan
How bizarre, the day I discover Borges, Borges appears on my feed talking about symbols.

At 19, I read a sentence that re-terraformed my head: "The level of matter in the universe has been constant since the Big Bang."
In all the aeons we have lost nothing, we have gained nothing - not a speck, not a grain, not a breath. The universe is simply a sealed, twisting kaleidoscope that has reordered itself a trillion trillion trillion times over.
Each baby, then, is a unique collision - a cocktail, a remix - of all that has come before: made from molecules of Napoleon and stardust and comets and whale tooth; colloidal mercury and Cleopatra's breath: and with the same darkness that is between the stars between, and inside, our own atoms.
When you know this, you suddenly see the crowded top deck of the bus, in the rain, as a miracle: this collection of people is by way of a starburst constellation. Families are bright, irregular-shaped nebulae. Finding a person you love is like galaxies colliding. We are all peculiar, unrepeatable, perambulating micro-universes - we have never been before and we will never be again. Oh God, the sheer exuberant, unlikely face of our existences. The honour of being alive. They will never be able to make you again. Don't you dare waste a second of it thinking something better will happen when it ends. Don't you dare.

This sentence has five words. Here are five more words. Five-word sentences are fine. But several together become monotonous. Listen to what is happening. The writing is getting boring. The sound of it drones. It's like a stuck record. The ear demands some variety. Now listen. I vary the sentence length, and I create music. Music. The writing sings. It has a pleasant rhythm, a lilt, a harmony. I use short sentences. And I use sentences of medium length. And sometimes, when I am certain the reader is rested, I will engage him with a sentence of considerable length, a sentence that burns with energy and builds with all the impetus of a crescendo, the roll of the drums, the crash of the cymbals—sounds that say listen to this, it is important.

I once dated a writer and
Writers are forgetful,
but they remember everything.
They forget appointments and anniversaries,
but remember what you wore,
how you smelled,
on your first date…
They remember every story you've ever told them -
like ever,
but forget what you've just said.
They don't remember to water the plants
or take out the trash,
but they don't forget how
to make you laugh.
Writers are forgetful
they're busy
the important things.

I will not write fluff to that. I won't. No.
But what if instead of two kids, it was, say, a kid and an old woman? And at first they just ignore each other and keep their blinds down and curtains shut, but then the kid climbs out onto the roof one spring morning to get a frisbee and she's got the window open bc it's so nice out and she tells him to cut that out, it's not a jungle gym and maybe the kid shows off a bit and nearly falls, and the old woman catches his arm…. anyway, so sometimes they leave the windows open and the kid'll show off his comic books or asks what rhymes with 'beautiful' (and it's totally for homework shut up), and the old woman tells him about all the protests and marches she took part in, and asks him the name of that one cute pop star (it's absolutely for her crossword now shush). And the old woman gives the kid relationship advice, and doesn't tell when he tries a bit too much of his parents' liquor cabinet one time, and the kid comes over and shows her how to use the smartphone her daughter bought for her, and doesn't tell when she sneaks a cigarrette out of said daughter's bag. And when the weather's too bad to open the windows, they tape silly pictures or notes to the glass for the other to see (the kid makes sure to make his extra big so she doesn't have to admit her eyeight isn't what it used to be), and when it is nice the kid will sneak over and leave seashells on her windowsill, because the old woman said once she misses the sea, but she can't travel like she used to. And one day he peeks in her window and sees her on the floor, and calls 911 and basically saves her life because she had a stroke and nobody would've known in time otherwise. And when she finally gets back from the hospital, just for a while because her daughter's talking about a retirement home where she'll have plenty of medical care and lots of friends her age, the kid comes through the window and then pulls another kid through the window who he introduces as his boyfriend, and says he wanted her to meet him. And she sniffs and interrogates the boyfriend in proper elderly relative fashion, and then declares him worthy of her boy— barely. And when she finally does have to go to that retirement home, the kid still comes to visit her, and always leaves seashells on the windowsill.

Adding a Period in a Text Message Just Makes You Look Pissed Off.
Ben Crair:
The period was always the humblest of punctuation marks. Recently, however, it's started getting angry. I've noticed it in my text messages and online chats, where people use the period not simply to conclude a sentence, but to announce "I am not happy about the sentence I just concluded."

iI agree that "smallville" has been done enough but I really wish the cast could come back for a short spin off. its kept Superman in the lime light and stayed mainstream. it was truly a wild ride. I loved every min of it

@cupid u couldn't be more right!!!! And from the trailer looks like Apokolips is attacking earth!! It's gonna kick ass
3 years agoby @superman81Flag
I hope the reason they had so many fill in episodes this season was because they were saving their money for an EPIC finale
3 years agoby @Jethro-MartinFlag
This is going to be both epic and sad. I hate to see this great show disapear but you kow what they say, quit while your ahead and i really think they have explored Supes smallville days to the Nth degree. Its time for Supes to grow up and become the hero we all know and...love?
@playhouse Yeah, they used to use them in actual episodes; they used the williams score in most of the episodes in which Virgil Swann was present (the reason why is obvious ; ))
3 years agoby @jptheredskullFlag
@jptheredskull Space has been using the Williams Superman theme in their promos for years now. I've liked that the CW has been using the Krypton theme in theirs. And as much as I've enjoyed Louis Febre's work, I do hope he manages to incorporate Williams' themes into the actual episodes.

They really were packing a punch for the end. Never would've guessed they'd bring in the whole planet of Apokolips to attack the Earth. This is the perfect way for Clark to step out into the world as Superman.

Love this song and band, really wish they were still around
This song is so fantastic. Today they played it on the local college station (88.1 WKNC) and the two DJs were stoned out of their mind. The best part was when the guy DJ said "If you guys have any requests call 911-420-6-9-6-9" My friend Erik and I laughed our asses off. Good day.

Check out who made it to the top of the box office this weekend - do you think The Butler hung on to that coveted #1 spot, or did The World's End take it? Find out this morning in the KPOI Hotbox. And at 7:40 this morning, win a pair of passes to the screening of Morrissey 25: Live, at Consolidated Ward Theatres on September 6th.
And story of the morning - how ONE MILLION cockroaches escaped a greenhouse recently, no not in Ewa Beach. Read more on this story [here] in case you missed it this morning.
And of course unless you were hiding under a huge rock, you've already heard that Ben Affleck is NOT a favorite for the role of an upcoming Batman movie, and comic book fans have even started an online petition to drop Affleck from the role. So I asked you this weekend, who you would cast. A few answers I got?
Riley from Aiea says, Kimbo Slice
Duane from Pearl City would choose John Hamm. and possibly Paul Giamatti as THE PENGUIN … interesting ...
Marcus from Kailua suggested having Will Smith in whiteface with Christopher Walken as Alfred. That's racist, right? I'm gonna move on.
Jon from Hawaii Kai thinks the role should go to Henry Rollins. I would agree only if that meant having Black Flag in the soundtrack.
Burt from Mililani took a play on words and went with Bat Damon.
If you have some suggestions, let us know on our wall at facebook.com/KPOIFM or tweet it to us at @KPOI105HI
And a question I pose this morning - how in the world do you take out the taste of cigar out of your mouth? A few friends of mine and I smoked a few cigars to celebrate the birth of my baby girl … and I can't get the taste out of my mouth. Ideas?

I use to have a nice japanese maple tree, in front of the house but this year my tree only 25 percent of it has leaves, more like one branch, and the rest of the tree hasn't shown buds or leaves. When I broke a branch on the side that doesn't have leaves, it looks like it's still alive. One branch, about 5 percent of the tree, still has dry leaves from last year and that branch I will cut off.
I wanted to know could that branch have made my tree diseased? Should I give it more time? What can I do? I don't want to cut it down. Please help me and my tree.

Milk Tea
On Wikipedia, it is written that milk tea may refer to:
Tea mixed with milk
Bubble tea, also known as "pearl milk tea" or "boba milk tea"
Hong Kong-style milk tea, black tea sweetened with evaporated milk

These days, milk tea have been a food trend in Jakarta. You can find store which sells milk tea almost everywhere. Milk tea that is famous in Jakarta is Taiwanese tea-based drink, invented in tea shops in Taiwan, during the 1980s. Why is it also known as pearl/boba milk tea? Because most of Taiwanese milk teas come with small chewy tapioca balls which commonly called "pearls" (珍珠, zhēnzhū) or "boba" (波霸, bōbà). Some stores also sell the HK-style milk tea, but it's rare.
Here is a list of milk tea stores I've tried:

LIN Artisan Ice Cream/I Scream Ice Cream (Jakarta) Different with the one in Bandung, LIN is the first liquid nitrogen ice cream in Indonesia. They only have 1 outlet which is in Kemang, South Jakarta. With cozy interior, LIN serves choices of unique taste of the ice cream, that can be served with waffle, cone, or just with the cup. They also have snacks and selections of coffee. So far, the Ultimate Chocolate with Choco Chips is the best. I just tried 2 out of 12, so I'm still looking forward to try the other flavour of ice cream.
Tonkichi Tonkatsu (Singapore, Hong Kong) Here you can have the authentic japanese tonkatsu, which is very delicious. I recommend Tonkatsu Set, served with a bowl of rice and fresh salad. There is also sesame you can grind by yourself to be eaten with the pork.

More quotes about food? It's here;-D
Edited with Pixlr. Try it yourself, so user friendly!;-)
Fish n Co (World Wide) It's always fun to have fish as your dish. Fish n Co gives different touch on their specialties which is the 'Fish n Chips around the world' menu. They also have the baked, grilled, and the poached one. Their salad is very wonderful, and the platters are sooo good. Every single menu tastes good, but I like The Best Fish n Chips in Town and Wild Mushroom Spaghetti the most for the main dish. Some drinks are bottomless refill, they say: Drink like a fish.
In Indonesia, there is also the 'seafood shack' outlet in Grand Indonesia which serves smaller portions with lower price.Try them yourself and get hooked!

About this event
TEDxTheHague November 2009 Edition: The Power of Sound
Our November theme is The Power of Sound. According to Tolstoy, music is the shorthand of emotion. When music enters your head, it turns into feelings in milliseconds. And those feelings are not always positive. Retailers loose up to 30 percent of their costumers with ill-considered background music.

Philosophy for our times: cutting edge debates and talks from the world's leading thinkers
This Debate
Sue Bailey, Hermione Lee, Steven Rose. Jo Marchant hosts.
Memory seems so important. Education relies on it, and it is revered from Mastermind to University Challenge. But could it be that forgetting is more valuable, especially in an age that allows us to instantly access any fact? Could it be that forgetting, rather than memory, creates the individual?The Panel
Neurobiologist Steven Rose, President of the Royal College of Psychiatrists Sue Bailey and biographer Hermione Lee celebrate forgetfulness.
In assocation with Pfizer.

We forget because nothing is eternal...We forget the most by not forgetting...Forgetting some creation?
We do not forget; we just adapt, naturally

Fred, what you are saying is noticeably emotionally backed. It's true that as people, and especially in today's society, memories and storytelling means a whole lot. But that doesn't mean that an alternative is immediately 'madness.' In fact, I feel what you said doesn't support anything beyond the bias that I'm exposing here. Personally I think forgetting is almost as important as remembering, especially, like it was said at the beginning of this video, in this day and age, where people can pull up nearly any fact about you at instantaneous speeds. To be blunt, everyone does stupid shit, and it would be inhuman to do otherwise, but not everyone wants to carry the burden of the joke for their entire lives.
Fred on 19/08/2013 11:36am
That's just madness. Memories create and maintain us as individuals. Removing a memory, no matter if it's sad or happy or deep or frivolous, makes us less of a person. Like Sue said, we should work with harmful memories to help us come to terms with them but we cannot and should not discard parts of ourselves.
EeBee on 16/08/2013 3:42pm
Steven Rose says that when remembering memories we remember the last time we remembered them which makes them incredibly labile. To which extent is this actually true? And if it can be taken to the extreme, why would anyone keep harmful memories? There would be no PTSD, there would be no grieving, there would be no unhappiness. We amputate gangrenous limbs, the same should be done with memories.

Well, wow.
That has to be the reaction in both Boston and British Columbia after the Canucks came out with a 1-0 win in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals. Raffi Torres scored with 18.5 seconds left in the game to give Vancouver the win over the Boston Bruins. Let's see what happened.
Number Five: Penalties
Daniel Sedin took an early penalty when he high sticked Zdeno Chara. Because blood was drawn, the Boston Bruins got a four minute power play opportunity.
Unfortunately for the Bruins, they were not able to execute. They got off some quality shots and the power play looked better than it has, but it was once again the same result. Chara played up front in front of Roberto Luongo, who made some fantastic saves in the double minor sequence.
There were a total of four power plays in the period, which is four more than there were in all of Boston's Game 7 win over Tampa Bay. The period ended up being scoreless, so no harm was done. If the Bruins were able to convert these chances, this could be a different game.
Number Four: Tim Thomas
Thomas was not the reason Boston lost this game. He made 33 saves to keep Boston in it when they seemed to lose energy. The Canucks seemed surprised at Thomas' style at times, an adjustment they are going to have to make.
Number Three: Bruins Energy
As the game went on, the Bruins seemed to be worn down by the Vancouver Canucks, just like the Bruins wore down the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 7. This game had the similar feel for the Bruins.
Boston was able to play with Vancouver all game and actually carry the play at times, but the Canucks constant attack appeared to tire out Boston. Boston is going to need to condition themselves for this Vancouver style.
Number Two: Roberto Luongo
Luongo was just as good as Tim Thomas, and perhaps even better. He was able to save 36 shots and steal the game. Sure, Torres scored the game winning goal and he deserves credit, but if not for Luongo the Canucks have no chance.
He helped Vancouver kill a four minute penalty and a five-on-three in Boston's favor. If not for Luongo, Boston would have won this before Torres would have happened.
Number One: Raffi Torres' Goal
But by default, the game winning goal with less than 30 seconds gets the vote for number one play of the game. Torres scored the goal with 18.5 seconds left in the game to win the game for Vancouver.
Johnny Boychuk made a mistake pinching up and Ryan Kesler made a terrific pass to Torres. Thomas had no chance with a wide open left side of the net.
Game Two is Saturday night at 8pm as the Canucks lead the series, 1-0.

A guy claims he has "ban immunity" because he never accepted the Summoner's Code
1 Attachment(s)
Is this true? Or is it all just a bunch of bull****?
I wish to send a personal report because this guy was just the most incessantly annoying and toxic players I've ever seen.
They would ***** about how their AD fed first blood, then spend the rest of the game TYPING and zoning themselves, then complaining even more about how they lost the lane.
I wanted to rip my eyes out.
I have their username saved in a special place in my heart. I await the day that they come to the forums *****ing about how Riot illegally banned them or something.
Then I will present a replay of said game.
You can't play unless you accept
I created my account before S1 but still got banned.
He will get whats coming if he's a feeder.
BS. They can ban him regardless, they just need the correct proof.
how are plat players so stupid?
bull**** for sure
implying riot or the tribunal cares whether he accepted it or not
By simply playing, you've accepted the terms of summoner's code. The only other time you have to read and press it, is if you decide to do tribunals....
So no, he's not immune to bans.
Edit: forgot to mention... there's also that "this is our sandbox agreement" that pops up everytime you patch... pretty sure they reserve the right to ban at their discretion as well. It IS a free to play game after all...and with any online game, it's a service, not a right.
sigh... why i never meet such amusing players. stuff like that makes up for their feeding in lulz and giggles.
based on my optimism, i want to believe nobody can be that stupid.
I'm convinced he (the "no summoner's code" guy) is a troll. A particularly bad one.
Can't see the screenshot but honestly, don't let them get under your skin.
