TUF 18 EP 4 Roxanne Modafferi (15-10) vs Jessica Rakoczy (1-3) Fight Video Compete.
wow…They both looked pretty bad. Roxy's striking is hilarious. Jessica has good striking, but wtf was she thinking? She didn't stand up when she could have, she jumped into her guard a bunch of times. Such a frustrating fight to watch it looked amateur. I was pretty sure Roxy was gonna get clipped though, poor girl
That ref…
Graduated with honors from the Mazagatti Training Academy.
The coach on ronders team is the biggest pipe end iv ever seen. What an aggressive retard. Great hart and determination shown by roxanna, what this sport is all about
That was an extremely late stoppage. She was out from the slam… and after that hit… and from then on… Wow
sloppy fight.
Roxy is a joke she has been dumped on her head to many times move over real fighter coming threw
We can blame the ref all day but the corner should have tossed in the towel after the slam.
Make that 0-6 in Roxy's last 6 fights…because she sucks.
What a hyped fighter. Shes a Jiu Jitsu master? Bullllshit.
Shes just a nerd with a good heart and people feel obligated to encourage her.
This season is almost unwatchable. Too much crying and drama by the fighters and coaches and the fighters aren't very good.
@dave-o , its called emotion i cant think of one season where some guy didn't cry after losing and letting his family down week after week and after the fight with roxy the bitch screamed in disgust with herself and was mad i loved it and wish all the fighters had the will to be great like her and she isnt good at all but great season i can tell.
all comments in different posts from today got deleted Bruno,why?
Bruno: Someone may have marked you as s*** and I never see them. I did not purposely delete.
wow, what a TERRIBLE ref…
That slam was sick, and the fist unprotected punch after that slam should have been enough for the ref to stop….
Bruno: What?
Iv followed almost every single season except for 2 seasons max. I even watched Team Nelson vs Team Carwin (worst season of all time) and this one is unwatchable. I find myself turning off the episode half way through or forwarding to the lame girl fight. Ronda is the worst who in their right mind would think it would be a good idea to put this broad on tv?
Ok Bruno,thanks!
What is it about Roxanne and letting herself be slammed like that? That's at least her second KO/TKO from a slam – I'd hoped she'd learnt the first time.

Rosie Pope of one of our favorite BRAVO guilty pleasure TV shows Pregnant in Heels wrote a blog post about her amazing makeup artist Karina Montoya's beauty secrets and they include our Priti nail polish! Apparently Karina's favorites are Magic Man Iris as the go-to burgundy, Wishbone Flower for blue, Chrysnathos for gold and Coronation as the perfect neutral for all skin tones.
EcoSalon is predicting some different nail color trends for this Spring season! In a recent post the 'Conscious Culture and Fashion' website wrote about our new London 2012: Heavy Medal Kit (launching May 1st and inspired by the upcoming Olympic Games) and our classic Coronation!
So, will you trade in your bold and brights for statement metallics like our Chrysanthos, Old Man Cactus, Bills Bronze Orchid, and Pewter Veil? Will you leave them behind and tame your look with our signature sheer pink Coronation? Or will you stick to the more flashy, popping shades?

A tip of the hat to Shakespeare
It is doubtful that Claudio Monteverdi knew the work of Shakespeare, yet his last opera, L'Incoronazione di Poppea (1643), is arguably closer to Antony and Cleopatra than are the settings of that work by Gian Francesco Malipiero (1938) or Samuel Barber (1966). The constant formal invention displayed by Monteverdi mirrors Shakespeare's fast succession of contrasting scenes: both pieces combine comic, tragic, ironic, and sentimental elements; both portray ambition and lust, shedding poetic light on the unbridled passions of a Roman leader, the repudiation of a virtuous empress (named Octavia in both pieces), and her replacement by a scheming courtesan; both include comic nursesusually sung by male performersbelonging to the same tradition as the character in Romeo and Juliet.
It has long been recognized that Mozart's Die Zauberflöte and Shakespeare's The Tempest share many features: initiation, the supernatural, the power of music, the wise magician and his uncouth servant. Mozart, it seems, planned to write the music to a singspiel based on August Wilhelm von Schlegel's translation of The Tempest. The proposed book was actually set four times and, like most other German Tempest operas, resembles a sequel of Die Zauberflöte. It is also worth noting that Mozart's Così fan tutte was reworked into a French version (1863) of Love's Labour's Lost by Léo Delibes, although one might contend that it is closer to other Shakespearean comedies involving cross-dressing or a love-quartet, such as Twelfth Night or A Midsummer Night's Dream. Berlioz conceived Les Troyens (1863), he said, according to the Shakespearean system. The only words by Shakespeare in the opera are in Didon and Enée's love duet, which uses the On such a night dialogue of Lorenzo and Jessica in Act V, scene 1 of The Merchant of Venice, but other traceable borrowings are the ghosts that persuade the hero to leave Carthage and the comic scene that precedes Enée's tempestuous confrontation with Didon. The latter scene provides the only moment of comic relief in this highly dramatic work. All in all, the opera's epic force derives as much from Shakespeare's histories as from the Aeneid.
Modest Mussorgsky's Boris Godunov (first performed 1874) is a literal setting of a play by Aleksandr Pushkin, itself modeled on Shakespeare's histories, to which the composer added the Macbeth-inspired hallucination scene. The opera navigates in Shakespearean style between epic and drama, between the tragedy of the Russian people and the guilt-harrowed Tsar Boris, between popular comedy and the fate of the realm. The character of the Innocent can be seen as a direct echo of the Fool and Poor Tom in King Lear, while the murdered tsarevitch and his living counterpart point to characters and situations in Richard III.
One might think that Mussorgsky's masterpiece is an unlikely beneficiary of Shakespearean inspiration. The point, however, is that, unlike most adapters who have been wary of being defeated by their model, Pushkin was not afraid of Shakespeare. And Mussorgsky was not afraid of Pushkin, whose lines are set mostly as they were written. Librettists have tended for various reasons to avoid direct contact with Shakespeare's text and have turned not to Hamlet or Romeo and Juliet but back to Shakespeare's sources, using Saxo Grammaticus's Gesta Danorum or Matteo Bandello's novella of the lovers of Verona. However, it seems to be of little doubt that, even in these two cases, not the venerable older authors but Shakespeare's masterpieces provided the original inspiration.

Everyone has their favorite holiday movies — chances are "It's A Wonderful Life" and "A Christmas Story" are on the list — but for every "Miracle on 34th Street," there's a "Santa With Muscles," a Hulk Hogan vehicle about "an evil millionaire who gets amnesia and then believes that he is Santa Claus," according to IMDB.
It's Christmas clunkers like this that online ticket seller Fandango had in mind when it launched its contest for the 10 worst Christmas movie of all time. A customer poll helped shape the list, which is topped by the it-sounds-so-bad-it-might-be-good entry "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians." It might not have a touching epiphany wherein George Bailey realizes how much he has to be grateful for, but it does have Kris Kringle doing battle with '60s era tinfoil robot aliens. And when you can't stomach hearing Zuzu talk about angels getting their wings for the millionth time, that actually doesn't
Atlantic Station's free weekly Winter Wonder Jam, which began Dec. 2 with a concert from Citizen Cope, concludes this week with the Band Perry.
Citizen Cope was followed by Sister Hazel and Gavin DeGraw, but this week's final show might be the biggest yet.
The sibling trio scored a No. 1 country hit in 2010 with "If I Die Young" (which was also a Top 20 pop hit and the Country Music Association's single and song of the year). They followed that up with "You Lie," which climbed to No. 2. The band's latest single, " All Your Life," just moved into the Top 10 and shows no sign of slowing down.
How often do you get to see a free show from a band that just scored the most wins at the Country Music Association awards ceremony? Everybody wins with this one. The show starts at 7 p.m. in Atlantic Station's Central Park.

People love to get creative when it comes to Halloween costumes, and the current year's newsmakers always help inspire costume ideas. But what about when those newsmakers are controversial? For example, there's reportedly been a great demand for Casey Anthony costumes, and you can find retailers selling outfit accessories online, though most big-box retailers are steering clear of the polarizing figure.
Charlie Sheen has authorized his likeness to be sold at a major costume store chain. But is it appropriate to dress up as the mentally unstable actor?
And what about those that fall into the "is it too soon" category, such as Steve Jobs? It's reported that Steve Jobs zombie costumes are going to be a big hit this Halloween.
Expect to see a bunch of people dressed up as Occupy Wall Street protesters, mocking the grassroots movement.
And that's just the costume ideas for adults. Our Momania blogger has a good discussion posted about whether it's acceptable to allow your child

We hope that transitioning to Moodle will improve your overall online learning experiences by:
- offering compatibility to popular browsers and their latest versions (List of Moodle-supported browsers)
- offering tools for collaboration and learning
- providing an opportunity to connect with your online campus classmates
- providing a user-friendly and stable online environment
Training: How will I be trained on Moodle?
You will be enrolled in two self-paced online training courses (Moodle 101 and US Travel Interactive) so you can learn how to use Moodle and practice interacting with common tools your instructors will be using in the upcoming semester. You should try and complete these courses prior to your first class session. Moodle 101 will help you get acquainted with Moodle's interface, navigation, and basic tools of a course. The US Travel Interactive course is designed for fun interaction with other students at UMDNJ who have participated in the course at one point or another; please continue that trend and feel free to post to the forums, take quizzes, and poke around with the other activities.
To access these courses on our Moodle UMDNJ site, go to The Moodle UMDNJ site (http://moodle.umdnj.edu) and enter your portal username and password credentials (same as ANGEL).
Note: For the Fall term, you will access Moodle directly at http://moodle.umdnj.edu and do NOT need to go through the my.umdnj.edu portal as you did with ANGEL.
Once you are logged into Moodle, you will see the category, "Student Moodle Training" in the upper left hand corner of the page. If you have issues accessing these courses or logging in, contact Meredith Cushman at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Support: What if I if I have technical question about Moodle before and during my course?
If you need technical support with Moodle before the start of your course or after it has started, please contact the Moodle helpdesk between the hours of 9am to 7pm, Monday through Friday.
If you do not hear back from the Moodle helpdesk, or if the helpdesk cannot help you because it is SOM course specific issues, please contact Donna Dobie via email email@example.com. Turnaround time for answering your questions is usually several hours at most Monday through Friday from 7am till 3pm. During the evening and weekends please expect to hear back during the Monday through Friday 7am till 3pm hour; although email does get sporadically checked during off hours and you may here back sooner.
- please remember that our Moodle site's esthetic may seem a little plain but it is evolving. The look, feel, and geography may change as we get closer to launching our Fall semester and we receive more feedback from you.
- You will not see your SOM courses until the official Fall start date listed in Banner.
- By completing certain activities at the end of the "Moodle 101"course, you will automatically be entered in a drawing to win a t-shirt, mug, or mouse pad.
We hope you have a smooth transition to Moodle and have a productive Fall semester!

I can honestly say that the entire time I was there, from the moment we pulled into the parking lot and were met by the smiling eyes of Jon I was in a blissful state. Of course my friend that I stayed with contributed to that, but the boat was-for me and her- magical. Friday night it was chilly, that was great-just hang out under a blanket and listen to their wonderful selection of Jazz music, Saturday was warm and sunny-which lends another facet of interest to the stay. Seagulls, and sailboat lines making music with the masts. The service was wonderfully friendly and happy, and Karens breakfasts were inspiring (I love to cook). We did enjoy the little Italian place nearby for many reasons, and overall loved it. Yes there are airplanes landing and taking off-we loved that too. The bed linens were a lovely quality, and the bed was cozy. I look forward to staying again.
Fabulous Floating B&B!
From stem to stern, the innkeepers of the Green Turtle have thought of everything one could desire at a B&B. From the complementary snacks and beverages in the galley, to the plush towels and toiletries in the two baths. Each item thoughtfully chosen, within reach but stowed away securely on board. We were met at the marina by Jon who greeted us with a warm handshake and an infectious smile. He ferried our gear down to the dock where we met Karen, who escorted us onto a beautiful, classic yacht. A luxury boat I've always imagined being on and here it was a reality! They showed us around, giving us instructions on the intricacies of such a fine vessel. They obviously loved their property and were eager to share some stories with us. Within a few minutes, it felt as if we were hanging out with old friends. What a wonderful couple! They exuded warmth but gave us our space and were never intrusive. We were joined by another couple, friends of ours and there was plenty of space for all of us to spread out. We were lucky to witness a late summer lightning storm pass over Boston from the cosy confines of the main cabin. It was quite a show! Karen and Jon suggested the Viking cab company to bring us over to Boston to the Steely Dan concert we were attending at the Seaport area. Our driver Brian assured us he would bring us back to Winthrop whenever we were ready. After a quick phone call, there he was at our agreed upon meeting spot. We enjoyed a great afternoon on the boat, an excellent evening in Boston and a wonderful night's sleep on board. In the morning we enjoyed our coffee overlooking the Boston skyline. Jon's breakfast sandwiches were out of this world. Thanks for sharing the secret ingredient! Anybody who loves the water will greatly appreciate this wonderful spot. Thank you Karen and Jon for your gracious hospitality. We will definitely be back to visit again! Sincerely, Alanna and Peter
What a wonderful week of living right!
We wanted a wonderful quite, fun, peaceful, scenic, slightly pampered get away week of sailing around the Virgin Islands. (We are seasoned travelers and wanted off the grid for a week- well not entirely- we did peak at iPhones a bit.) I had taken a similar sail in 2012 and really enjoyed the trip, so my expectations were high for Deborah and me. This was my 7th time to St John area. Cap'n John and Susan were most accomodating in every way. The boat is wonderful- very comfortable with plenty of privacy for the two of us. Sleeping with the hatch up and being awakened by gentle rain drops in the night was a special treat. Deborah and I even saw a shooting star at 2.00 am as we were sitting up top taking in the beautiful night sky. The boat was always tidy and well-maintained, but we felt right at home, not like stepping into a museum. We stayed in some incredible bays during the nights and experienced the fun of sailing in these waters. Cap'n John and Susan generously showed us some of the local venues for eating and socializing. Watching the super bowl on the beach with the friendly group was most memorable. Susan guided us on a few hikes and provided just the right of explanation of the history. They gave us the space we sought but also I felt like we were sailing with 2 new friends. Did I mention that the food was fabulous! I'm recommending the Sea Witch to my friends and next time (not soon enough) we go back to the Virgin Islands, for sure we are calling Cap'n John and Susan. I highly recommend the Sea Witch.

SOUTH BEND – Playing without its leading scorer, Notre Dame got a career day from Eric Atkins, who scored 30 points to lead the Irish to an 87-81 overtime win Sunday over Canisius.
It has been a rough week for the Irish (9-4), who lost an eight-point lead against No. 3 Ohio State, then senior Jerian Grant to an academic violation, and sophomore reserve Cameron Biedscheid to transfer.
Garrick Sherman converted a 3-point play and an offensive putback late in overtime, and Atkins drilled his sixth 3-pointer with 12 seconds left to seal the Irish win. Sherman finished with 17 points and 10 rebounds.
Billy Baron matched his career high with 33 points to lead Canisius (8-5).
Baron's three-point play with 1:02 left tied the game at 73. In the final minutes, Canisius appeared to grab a loose ball with the shot clock winding down on Notre Dame, but the player stepped out of bounds, giving the ball back to Notre Dame with 28 seconds left and no shot clock. The Irish failed to get a final shot off, sending the game into overtime.
Baron drilled a deep 3-pointer at 16:44 of the second half and another one with a hand in his face four minutes later that put the Golden Griffins up by four.
Notre Dame responded with 3-pointers by Atkins and V.J. Beachem, a New Haven grad, to keep it close, and Steve Vasturia's 3 gave the Irish their first lead of the second half, 56-54 with 11:32 to go.

Some doctors are concerned that making it more difficult to prescribe opioids could hinder treatment of patients in pain, ABC News reports. Earlier this week, 37 health care workers signed and submitted a petition to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), urging officials to change labels on prescription opioids, in an effort to curb prescription drug abuse.
"I believe this is not an appropriate way to address the disease of addiction," said Pam Kedziera, Clinical Director of Fox Chase Cancer Center's pain program. "Pain is a significant problem in the United States, and those who suffer deserve treatment."
The petition asks the FDA to prohibit drug companies from promoting opioids for moderate pain and from encouraging doctors to prescribe high doses of opioids for an indefinite period of time. While a change in the label would not limit how doctors prescribe opioids, it would prevent drug companies from promoting the drugs for non-approved uses.
"We've seen the pendulum go from it being extremely difficult for physicians to prescribe opioids to patients who didn't have cancer… to where it was clearly being overprescribed," Dr. Joshua Prager, Director of the Center for Rehabilitation of Pain Syndromes at the University of California at Los Angeles, told ABC News. "What I would argue for is that there really has to be balance that doesn't have the pendulum swing back too fast and too far beyond what is reasonable."
Both Kedziera and Prager object to a 90-day limit on opioids. Kedziera says she is concerned about taking chronic pain patients off medication just so that they will not exceed the limit.
Dr. Gregory Collins, who heads the Cleveland Clinic's Alcohol and Drug Recovery Center, said he believes the measures outlined in the petition "unduly restricts doctors' access to opiate medication in the treatment of numerous noncancer but painful conditions."

I believe the right to an education is a basic human right..what can we do to make that a reality?
Governor Brown just signed the Dream Act and that propelled me to think about how accessible education is in United States and around the world. Education shouldn't be something that only the privileged can afford. What can we do to give every child an opportunity to improve their lives through education?

Nov 3 2011: ...free like food and water? I suppose teachers should work for free? Most people don't realize how expensive the current systems already are. Maybe we do need to charge even a nominal free for people to have a better appreciation for it. Psychologically, humans tend to assign less value to what costs them less.
I would rephrase your comment to say, we need to reduce barriers to education. Give it away free and its worth what people directly paid for it (nothing).

U of S Awarded $1.6 Million for Social Science and Humanities Research
University of Saskatchewan faculty and graduate students have been awarded a total of $1.6 million in federal funding over three years to study a wide range of issues including the impact of environmental change on wildlife management, effects of executive compensation in the public sector, and ways of reducing poverty in rural communities.
The funding announced today from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) includes $685,000 for scholarships and fellowships awarded to 23 U of S graduate students.
"This investment in our outstanding and diverse research talent will result in new knowledge that will have an impact on society, the environment and the economy, while training the next generation of innovative researchers," said U of S Vice-President Research Karen Chad.
The following eight U of S research teams were successful in the Standard Research Grants competition, receiving a total of $549,015:
- Murray Fulton and Michael Atkinson (public policy) will look at executive compensation in government offices, Crown corporations, universities, and co-operatives to improve understanding of how these organizations operate and how compensation affects the behavior, morale and performance of executive decision-makers.
- Margaret Kovach (education) will interview both non-aboriginal and aboriginal university instructors of education and social work on how they incorporate aboriginal perspectives into their course instruction. By providing new in-roads for instruction and curriculum planning, this study will help teachers and social workers to be more responsive to aboriginal communities.
- Mona Holmlund (art history) will examine the unique cultural history of Saskatchewan visual arts, including co-curating public exhibitions and assembling a collection of essays to bring to light the artistic production of cultural groups that have been historically marginalized.
- Douglas Clark, Centennial Chair (environment and sustainability), will look at how environmental change shapes the goals of individuals, groups, and organizations involved with wildlife co-management in northern Canada. For example, the research will look at how climate change is challenging polar bear management in Nunavut. The goal is to find ways to cope with such change and refine decision-making processes that could benefit international resource management.
- Keith Walker (educational administration), Heather Heavin (law), and Paul Clarke (University of Regina) will investigate how human services professionals who provide services to children judge the best interest of the child, including the extent to which they take children's views into account when decisions are made about their well being. The research will form the basis of recommendations for future public policy.
- Allison Muri (English) will create an open-access, electronic map archive edition of historical London to study how digital mapping can create new ways of looking at English literary history and communications in 18th-century London. The project will enhance understanding of the history and future of the book, its design, and how users interact with it.
- Egan Chernoff (education) will work with mathematics teachers and future teachers to understand how they perceive and teach randomness. Looking at randomly generated sequences of numbers such as lottery tickets and test answer keys, this research will contribute to the field of mathematics education, providing new understanding of why humans are poor judges of randomness.
- Robert Hudson (philosophy) will examine recent arguments by astrophysicists for the existence of dark energy, the mysterious substance currently thought to compose almost three-quarters of the universe. The goal will be to philosophically assess these arguments to better understand how scientists arrive at theories and how they go about improving the accuracy of their observational data.
The following U of S teams were successful in the Aboriginal Research and Development Grants competition, receiving a total of $274,329:
- Marie Battiste (education), Lynne Bell (art and art history), Isobel Findlay (social enterprises), Len Findlay (English), and James Youngblood Henderson (native law) will study the teachings, oral traditions, art and other aspects of the humanities of the Mi'kmaq of Atlantic Canada. The interdisciplinary project will be led by Battiste, academic director of the Aboriginal Education Research Centre.
- Carolyn Brooks (sociology), Colleen Dell (sociology) and Jennifer Poudrier (sociology), in partnership with the Battleford Agency Tribal Chiefs communities, will look at youth crime and identify social and environmental pathways towards community resilience. This study will provide community-specific understandings for enhancing community programming, justice, and child welfare.
The following U of S teams were successful in the International Opportunities Fund competition, receiving a total of $99,946:
- Rose Olfert (public policy), Cristina Echevarria (economics), and David Natcher (renewable resource management), along with a team of international researchers, will carry out investigations in Canada, Chile and Peru to assess various approaches to reducing poverty in rural communities. The research will identify how specific public policies might be used to improve the economic welfare of resource-dependent rural communities.
- Hassan Vatanparast (pharmacy and nutrition), Li Zong (sociology), Rachel Engler-Stringer (community health and epidemiology/medicine), Carol Henry (pharmacy and nutrition), and Susan Whiting (pharmacy and nutrition) will study how cultural and socio-economic factors such as education and language barriers influence food security of refugees before and after migration to Canada. This research will be used by policy makers to help address food security issues.
U of S sociologist Peter Li was awarded $25,000 to host a two-day international workshop on economic and social integration of migrants and immigrants, featuring mainly scholars from Western Canadian and Western China.
SSHRC will support university-based research and training in the humanities and social sciences through the following graduate student awards which are supplemented by an additional $3,000 tuition scholarship from the College of Graduate Studies and Research for each successful student:
- U of S doctoral students Katya MacDonald (history) and Chassidy Puchala (community health and epidemiology) were each awarded the prestigious Joseph-Armand Bombardier Canada Graduate Doctoral Scholarships, valued at $35,000 per year for three years.
- Three U of S students—Kurt Krueger (history), Nancy Peters (education) and Terri Simon (psychology)—were awarded doctoral fellowships valued at $20,000 annually.
- Eighteen U of S students—five of them from the English department—were awarded a Joseph Bombardier Canada Graduate Master's Scholarship valued at $17,500 for one year. For a full list of recipients, visit: http://www.usask.ca/cgsr/
Several of the above projects include researchers at the Johnson-Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy. Backgrounders on these projects are available at: http://www.schoolofpublicpolicy.sk.ca/

A main break sent water rushing in an area along Hurricane Road Saturday night.
Would you text 911 if you had that option? It is now available in some parts of the country.
In order to get emergency vehicles rolling in some U.S. cities, it now only takes a quick text to 911. Willie Roberts say it's a sign of the times.
"Technology is moving forward. I mean the rest of the world should keep up with it. I text a lot, a lot more than I talk on the phone," said Roberts.
Text to 911 became available in select markets Thursday. As the name implies, it allows those in need of emergency assistance to text first responders rather than calling. But the option is only advised if the person can absolutely not make a call to 911.
Teenager Carson Allen says he prefers texting over calling anyway, and he can envision situations when it would be useful.
"[You] couldn't really call 911 if there was something wrong like a shooter in school. They would probably hear you," said Allen. "And it probably wouldn't end to well but if you could send a text it would probably work out a lot better."
But there are drawbacks. 911 texts must include the person's full name, location, and a description of the crime scene- information that could take quite a bit of time during an emergency.
The idea of Text to 911 been discussed in Thomas County, but leaders worry it could keep emergency workers from asking quick sometimes life saving questions.

Who will be Director Strange?
Marvel Studios' dominance as the biggest player in big-budget comic book adaptations continues apace, as wheels appear to be heavily in motion for a Doctor Strange movie.
According to sources, the Disney-owned studio has a four-man wishlist to helm a film based on the offbeat sorcerer character.
The four directors on the list are Mark Andrews (Brave), Nikolaj Arcel (A Royal Affair), Jonathan Levine (Warm Bodies, 50/50) and Dean Israelite (the upcoming Welcome To Yesterday).
Last month, Johnny Depp was linked to play the lead character, although some cold water has since been poured on that story.
There's been no official announcements from Marvel on the matter, so we'll keep our eyes and ears truly peeled until there is.

Have you ever gone to Union Station and poked a finger in the bullet holes left after the infamous shoot out of 1933? They're still there! The eerie thrill of seeing them conjures legends and tall tales that I've heard since I was a little girl. Wouldn't you like to know what really happened?
Would you like to read a retelling of Robin Hood with a loyal, daring, and amazing, female heroine? Then, you need to read Scarlet by A.C. Gaughen.
I'm a huge fan of female heroines who are strong, brave, and help people at all costs. This is what a strong female lead should be, not a whimpering girl who is flakey.
I recently found the most adorable book that I look forward to reading to my grandchildren. The book is called Big Birthday by Kate Hosford. Annabelle is planning a birthday party and has decided that the zoo is boring. As the story evolves, Annabelle is successful in getting her party on the moon.
Labradors: Work, Rest and Play by Nick Ridley is not a typical dog book. Readers will find it shelved with other dog books in our Library, and it is certainly a book dog lovers will enjoy. But what makes this book stand out is the high quality collection of pictures it contains.
Helen Hamilton has always felt different. She's done her best to hide it, until the day she went to school and attacked a new student without provocation. What's wrong with her? As Helen began to unravel her past, she realized that she couldn't hide from it any longer.
MCPL has a wonderful collection of picture books. One of my new favorites is a book titled The Flower Man by Mark Ludy. It is a wordless book; however, the pictures paint a very sweet and rich story about how a small gesture can have a huge impact on an entire community.
We all know how the story goes. There's an evil witch who casts a sleeping spell on Snow White who awakes when kissed by Prince Charming. The same is true for sleeping beauty; Rapunzel is trapped in a tall tower saved by Prince Charming's heroics. Finally, Cinderella hooks up with Prince Charming only through the help of a fairy godmother.
I'm a big fan of historical fiction, especially if it's based on royal figures in British history. Phillipa Gregory's books are right up my alley. I have steadily been making my way through her Cousins' War series, which is set during England's War of the Roses. I just finished The White Princess, which I read in a day, and now I am left wanting more!
My recent blog about the book, Letters from Yellowstone, reminded me of my last trip to Yellowstone National Park two years ago. My wife and I flew to Salt Lake City and then drove the scenic route up through the Grand Tetons to Yellowstone. While driving, we listened to the audiobook, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows. Like Letters from Yellowstone, Guernsey consists of a series of letters between a diverse, fascinating cast of characters.

Bushwick children were playing in the street after work, holding impromptu barbecues in their courtyards, and popping fire hydrants to stay cool Wednesday afternoon.
But inside the Hope Gardens Senior Center, the neighborhood's community leaders got down to business before breaking for the summer — and chowed down on a party sub featuring four kinds of pork.
"Our longtime caterer went out of business, but we have sandwiches," explained Community Board 4 District Manager Nadine Whitted. "We will always try to have something for you to nosh on."
Academy of Urban Planning's Adam Schwartz drops by to mention that the school has started a 3,000 square foot farm on Putnam and Irving and Woodbine Garden director Sean-Michael Fleming is the chief gardener. What patch of grass in Bushwick hasn't Sean-Michael dug a spade into or opened a farm on top of?
Also, Chairwoman Julie Dent is absent today, lobbying in Albany on behalf of her day-care center.
6:45 PM: Two candidates for the 54th Assembly District, Jesus Gonzalez and Deidra Towns are in the house tonight. The third, Rafael Espinal, is not and is instead down the street at his Putnam Street campaign office hosting a meeting that likely has more people in it than tonight's community board.
6:50 PM: Whitted calls the meeting to order and introduces Pratt's Eve Baron (formerly of the Municipal Arts Society) to lead a 15-minute presentation about the Family Services Network's Bushwick Brownfield Opportunity Area Study.
About two years ago, Family Services Network's Raul Rubio gave a preliminary presentation about redeveloping Bushwick's brownfields and vacant lots into new businesses, markets, housing, and parks — but that project is still in phase one as funding for the study has stalled.
Today, Baron and her students are talking about reviving the retail corridor of Broadway. So far, 15 percent of stores on the strip are vacant, and the group wants to create a merchants' association, as well as add benches, more greenery, and better lighting under the train.
Most intriguingly, the students presented three specific initiatives for redeveloping brownfields: an all-day outdoor market and flea market near Myrtle and Broadway, converting two vacant lots to a mixed-use development to house disabled and low-income residents with a pedestrian bridge to the Halsey J train, and converting a lot near Chauncey into a jobs- and workforce-development center with housing for formerly incarcerated individuals.
A board member expresses concern about the ex-con housing idea — and Whitted reminds her that the presentation is a "concept" with "no money."
Whitted also adds that bringing new businesses to Broadway is a challenge and some businesses that opened on Fulton Street, Queens Boulevard, and Knickerbocker Avenue should be lured to the corridor to open new locations.
7:25 PM: Whitted opens the meeting with roll call, asks electeds to introduce themselves and gives a long list of announcements.
7:45 PM: Whitted asks for old and new businesses, of which there is none, so we're moving to announcements. I'll summarize.
*A librarian with the Brooklyn Public Library notes that new laptops are coming to branches but the city could still close 16 branches if the budget gap isn't solved.
*The DA has a new unit to help anyone who is a victim of sex trafficking.
*Jesus Gonzalez, a prospective candidate for assembly, introduces himself but board member Robert Camacho interrupts him, complaining that he was campaigning. Whitted lets him continue.
That's all for now. Have a great summer!

I take care of my mother's health and I just received a copy of her bloodwork and, of course, the dr.'s office is currently closed but I'd like to find out a little bit more about this before I talk with him tomorrow. The range for the LDH level is 313-618. Hers came in at 714. I'm doing some research on the internet and am finding out some info on it but was wondering if anyone can shed some light on this. Is this considered abnormally high, relatively high, etc.? I'm not looking for medical advice but I'd like to have some info so I can get some sleep and not be on the internet all night looking for answers until morning comes. Thanks in advance.
You can try www.labtestsonline.org for info on the LDH test. But the range given seems off to me. Adults < 230 U/L, usually in the 100s are common from what I've seen. There are many different reasons why an LDH may be high, including mishandling of the blood, if she exercised before hand, or intake of certain drugs or skin diseases. If everything else looks good I wouldn't worry until seeing the Doctor. Hopefully it's just a false alarm.
Are you sure you're not looking at triglycerides? That range seems way off, but different labs do have different ranges. Here's the typical ranges of all things cholesterol:
Cholesterol levels should be measured at least once every five years by everyone over the age of 20. The screening test that is usually performed is a blood test called a lipoprotein profile. Experts recommend that men aged 35 and older and women age 45 and older be routinely screened for lipid disorders. The lipoprotein profile includes:
LDL (low density lipoprotein cholesterol, also called "bad" cholesterol)
HDL (high density lipoprotein cholesterol, also called "good" cholesterol)
Triglycerides (fats carried in the blood from the food we eat. Excess calories, alcohol or sugar in the body are converted into triglycerides and stored in fat cells throughout the body.)
Results of your blood test will come in the forms of numbers. Here is how to interpret your cholesterol numbers:
LDL Cholesterol
LDL cholesterol can build up on the walls of your arteries and increase your chances of getting heart disease. That is why LDL cholesterol is referred to as "bad" cholesterol. The lower your LDL cholesterol number, the better it is for your health. The table below explains what the numbers mean.
LDL Cholesterol LDL-Cholesterol Category
Less than 100 Optimal
100 - 129 Near optimal/above optimal
130 - 159 Borderline high
160 - 189 High
190 and above Very high
If you have heart disease or blood vessel disease, some experts recommend that you should try to get your LDL cholesterol below 70. For people with diabetes or other multiple risk factors for heart disease, the treatment goal is to reach an LDL of less than 100.
HDL Cholesterol
When it comes to HDL cholesterol -- "good" cholesterol -- the higher the number, the better it is for your health. This is because HDL cholesterol protects against heart disease by taking the "bad" cholesterol out of your blood and keeping it from building up in your arteries. The table below explains what the numbers mean.
HDL Cholesterol HDL-Cholesterol Category
60 and above High; Optimal; helps to lower risk of heart disease
Less than 40 in men and less than 50 in women Low; considered a risk factor for heart disease
Triglycerides are the chemical form in which most fat exists in food and the body. A high triglyceride level has been linked to the occurrence of coronary artery disease in some people. Here's the breakdown.
Triglycerides Triglyceride Category
Less than 150 Normal
150 - 199 Borderline high
200 - 499 High
500 or higher Very high
Total Cholesterol
Your total blood cholesterol is a measure of LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and other lipid components. Doctors recommend total cholesterol levels below 200
Total Cholesterol Category
Less than 200 Desirable
200 - 239 Borderline High
240 and above High

Thank you den33, Sandra and Catherine for your responses and links! Sandra, you've given me a nice education on the cholesterol levels which are also too high for my mother in addition to her LDH so it is valuable information. I spoke with the doc today and he said that he wouldn't be concerned unless the levels reached 1000 or higher. Her overall health is not that great so I will keep her LDH level in mind as she continues to be monitored.
Thank you again everyone for responding. It is much appreciated!

Coffee Cup Bows
Submitted by Mona Pape from Dyersville, IA
At a recent retreat, we had several quilters present, all drinking coffee and tea. To mark our cups, I suggested we each tie a small piece of fabric from the project we were working on to the handle of our cup. This kept them from getting mixed up. It was a hit!

Here's a link to a post about EH incorporating magic damage and bleeds: http://maintankadin.failsafedesign.com/forum/index.php?f=6&t=26831&rb_v=viewtopic
It's primarily about finding a way to correctly value armor for EH purposes. It provides a formula for new EH that includes the factors health, armor, talented mitigation of physical damage, talented mitigation of magical damage, resistance and magic and bleed damage as a percentage of the total damage (in the burst situation you are gearing for, like an impale hit + impale tick + melee hit).
It also includes comments about how to use the number you get from the calculation.

3390 Mary St., 182
Miami, FL 33133
Category: Performing Arts Venues
Region: Coconut Grove
Between rainstorms, depressing news stories, and two whole months until basketball season, there's not nearly enough laughter in our lives. Lucky for all of us, Cristela Alonzo is taking the stage at the Miami Improv (3390 Mary St., Miami), where she'll incite a much-needed laugh riot in a city overwhelmed with psychos, sadism, and oppressive humidity. From Conan to Last Comic Standing to Sons of Anarchy, this chick is everywhere. She's so funny, in fact, that 20th Century Fox is about to turn her personal life into a 30-minute sitcom. Sure beats your lame-ass daily grind. And she's an American Latina; if anyone can relate to Alonzo's antics, it's the Miami population at large. From family drama to cultural differences to the dreaded r-word (religion), everything's grist for her joke mill.

In a word-association game, "cabernet sauvignon" just might prompt a response of "merlot" as quickly as it would "Bordeaux" or "Napa Valley." By history, tradition, culture and color, the two grape varieties are that closely identified. Many of the world's more esteemed wines involve both.
Yet, in a vineyard, the two don't necessarily thrive side by side. Uneasy neighbors, they do best on different soils, different drainages, different exposures and the like.
This lesson was reaffirmed for me most recently at the Dallas Morning News and TexSom Wine Competition in Arlington, Texas.
The panel on which I sat was assigned solely wines of Napa Valley. Not surprisingly, our single biggest class was cabernet sauvignon. We tasted 90 of them over two days. We thought so highly of the class that we awarded gold medals to 14, or 16 percent of the class, fairly high for any group of wines, but in line with Napa Valley's reputation for cabernet sauvignon.
The Napa Valley class that most excited us, however, was made up of blended wines based on traditional Bordeaux grape varieties like cabernet sauvignon, petit verdot and malbec. These types of wines often are called "meritage" wines, though frequently they bear fanciful proprietary names.
Of the 13 in the class, five got gold medals, an exceptionally high 38 percent.
On the other hand, no class of Napa Valley wines was more depressing than merlot. We gave just one of the 24 entries a gold medal; 16 got nothing at all.
I know Napa Valley can yield wonderfully expressive and silken merlot. They either weren't entered or weren't showing well during our deliberations. Too many were stalky, stunted and rigid, lacking freshness and buoyancy.
The only merlot we gave a gold was a surprise if for no other reason than it was one of just two in the class from the 2010 vintage. Most were from 2008 and 2009.
Despite its youth, the gold-winning wine seized with confidence and balance the attributes for which everyday merlot is recognized: accessibility, graceful tannins, lingering finish and sun-warmed cherries and plums. The wine is the juicy and refreshing Napa Family Vineyards 2010 Napa Valley Merlot.
Napa Family Vineyards is a brand of the Winery Exchange in Novato. The Winery Exchange has no winery and no vineyards but buys juice and wine from others, finishes it, bottles it and markets it under a range of private labels sold exclusively by such retail chains as Cost Plus World Market, Trader Joe's, Safeway and Costco.
Its 55 labels include F.J. Serra (as in Father Junípero Serra, a missionary pioneer of the West Coast wine culture), Espuela Del Gaucho (for South American wines), Pacific Flyway (for Washington-state wines), Storyteller (for South African wines), and 31st State (in tribute to California). Wines sold under the label of Napa Family Vineyards are available only at Fresh & Easy stores.
The Winery Exchange also produces numerous brands of spirits and beer.
Jennifer Verdon, the media representative for the Winery Exchange, says the grapes that went into the merlot were gathered from "a variety of vineyards throughout Napa Valley."
Richard Mansfield, who oversees production of the Winery Exchange's wines in North America, says he blended 5 percent syrah into the Napa Family Vineyards merlot to intensify its richness and to bolster its backbone.
Syrah isn't often blended with merlot, but maybe that's just what it needs to amplify what the varietal has to say for itself in Napa Valley.
Napa Family Vineyards
2010 Napa Valley Merlot
By the numbers: 13.5 percent alcohol, 1,442 cases, $10
Context: Richard Mansfield recommends the merlot with "leg of lamb braised in red wine with chanterelle mushrooms and a side of Yukon potatoes and baby carrots finished with a dollop of demi-glace."

My new ob/gyn clinic does things differently than I'm used to; the first appt is at 7.5 weeks with the nurse to discuss history & such, then an ultrasound (woohoo! ) and bloodwork. Next week Wed, I meet with my ob & have a full physical, plus discuss all of the results from today...what sucks, though, is that the tech who did my u/s didn't really want to discuss anything and didn't even want to tell me the heartbeat! It was very wham-bam, but ah well; a friend has gone through this clinic with her two children & raves about it, and I've been pleased otherwise, so maybe she was just busy today... So, without further ado, here's my little bean that is growing away at a rate of 155 beats/minute The best part, per my husband, was our daughter's reaction to hearing the sound of the heartbeat; she was shocked-stunned-amazed...she is beyond excited!

If Aftab has been unlucky in his career he has been even unluckier in love," says Aftab's best friend, director Vikram Bhatt who also reveals that Aftab has finally found true love.
Aftab who has appointed Vikram Bhatt his unofficial mentor, is all set to marry Nin Dusanj at the earliest. And Bhatt had a big hand in approving of Nin as the perfect wife for Aftab.
Vikram recently spoke to Aftab's new lady-love and was bowled over by her devotion to Aftab.
Says Vikram, "Yes, I did speak to Aftab's girlfriend. I can tell you this much, it's a very rare kind of love that they share. Aftab has been singularly unfortunate in love. He has been used and discarded by women like Aamna Sharif. The thing about Nin is, she is not concerned with what he does, or what his stardom quotient is. She just loves him for who he is. When I spoke to her I could feel this unconditional love that she has for Aftab. I think my friend has found his true love."
Aftab can now heave a sigh of relief. He decided to make his relationship with Nin permanent only if Vikram approved of it.
Apparently� Aftab trusts Vikram's judgement more than his own. In fact the actor, whose career touched rock-bottom in recent years, drove to Vikram for help.
Vikram helped Aftab to revaluate his life and re-invent himself.
Says Vikram, "Emotionally and professionally, Aftab had hit a low. His career and life were going nowhere. He came to me because we go back a long way. We've shared a deep friendship and there was no one else he could turn to.
Aftab needed career help. I completely empathized, not only because he was a dear friend but also because I had gone through the same experience. When my career hit rock-bottom in 2007 I decided to take a clean break. It's tough to leave your work which is your life, for a longish period. But I told Aftab it's the only way to re-energize your career."
Aftab stopped signing films in 2010, took a year off to work on his physique and his performing abilities as an actor.
He then came back to his friend. Vikram Bhatt signed him for 1920: Evil Returns.
Says Vikram, "Aftab is born-again as an actor and as a human being. His life has come together. He's finally found the perfect partner and is hopefully en route to a second lease in his career. If I've played any part in the process of helping Aftab to find his bearings again, I'm happy."
Apparently Aftab's wedding is being planned in early 2013. Needless to say, Vikram would play the best man and host the reception.
Aftab admitted he's found love just when he needed the most. "Yes, we will get married. Nin was Hong Kong based. She has now relocated to India. She is a Punjabi girl, born and raised in London. But she's been working in Hong Kong for the past six years."
Aftab admits it's been a tough phase in his life. "I stopped signing films. There was no point in doing films I wasn't happy with. I only signed Vikram Bhatt's 1920: Evil Returns and Indra Kumar's Grand Masti, the sequel to Masti."
Aftab says the sequel to Masti is raunchier, more suggestive and risqu than the first film. "It has to be! There have been so many spinoffs since Masti was released in 2004. I can't say I'm comfortable with all the double-meanings and suggestive dialogues. But it is what the audience wants. Being an actor it's my job to do and say things I wouldn't in real life."

Art of the Northwest Coast Indians, Second Editionby Robert B Inverarity
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Here is the most complete text and general collection of illustrations of Northwest Coast Indian art written in the last twenty years. The art objects shown and described in this book are to the anthropologist and the artist what original documents are to the historian. Each individual work of art shows in concrete form the speculations about life and nature which took root among these primitive peoples. As such they form part of the vast mosaic of culture patterns of early North America.
Prefacing the illustrations is a text divided into two parts. The first discusses the tribes, their social life, culture, and religion. The second part deals with general aspects of primitive art, as well as the main features of the art of the Northwest Coast Indians. Mr. Inverarity describes and explains their consistent and highly developed use of symbols and the formulas used in their skillful adaptation of designs.

Our Story
Necessity is the mother of invention, and that phrase embodies my journey designing and manufacturing the Devyn Bag. After my daughter's birth, I returned to work intent on continuing breastfeeding but unable to find a stylish and multi-use bag that met my needs. This glaring gap in the market was my inspiration to design the Devyn Bag: a truly functional bag with effortless style designed for active women like me.
We started with extensive market research, consumer collaboration, and a list of demands: We wanted uncompromising quality which meant that the bags needed to be constructed of high-quality, long-lasting material. We insisted upon manufacturing our bags in the U.S.A. to take advantage of America's exceptional craftsmanship and to foster local job creation.
The design needed to offer stylish, feminine elegance as well as longevity. We sourced materials that are free of BPA, vinyl, PVC's and other carcinogens. Instead, we use toxic free insulation and the same beautiful fabric as the rest of the bag to provide added functionality - for those days when food isn't needed but extra storage space is needed. Finally, we wanted the bags to be distinctly versatile.
The end result – The Devyn Bag was born with a multitude of uses: an outdoor, active lifestyle, travel, work, diaper, breastfeeding and mom bag all in one. It was designed to embody the modern style and adventurous spirit inside every woman. We hope you enjoy them!
Colorado Made
Every Devyn Bag is made in Denver, CO. The essence of Denver, Colorado is reflected in our products: beautifully functional, effortless style, durability and resilience for the active woman in us all. Welcome to Colorado, welcome to the Devyn Bag LLC.
