"They're both chameleons — they adapt to each other," said Texas coach Matt Scroggin, a 1992 Olympian.
After they completed the final rotation the Stanford diver persuaded Dumais to finally watch the scoreboard. They knew only a Ukrainian team had a realistic chance of overtaking them.
Dumais didn't want to do it. "You're coming out and watching it with me," Ipsen demanded.
Once the Ukrainians hit the water Ipsen knew they had it.

A well-deserved medal for Dumais.

I used them for facial hair removal. My worst nightmare. I think the hair got even thicker after the treatment. The owner insisted that continuing with the treatment will lessen my hair but I did not believe her. Hair is a natural part of human body and I should not have messed with it. Wouldn't recommend to anyone. I never got my money back, either.

Note: Notes: Katharine Kagel, owner-chef of Café Pasqual's in Santa Fe, mimics the rich flavor and tender texture of pit-cooked barbacoa (traditionally goat). Garnish tacos with minced cilantro, chopped onions, and Café Pasqual's three-chili salsa. If cooking meat up to 3 days ahead, chill airtight; freeze to store longer.

Lavina: The Interview
September 2nd, 2013
"I get a lot of attention because of my breasts," says newcomer Lavina Dream. "I like that people stare at me. I enjoy that." Meet New Discovery Lavina, the first of many lavishly padded and wonderfully thick New Discoveries arriving at XLGirls.com. Lavina is from Romania, the newest nation on the boob map during the past few years to yield many lush and plush gals eager to show off their bodacious bods, such as Arianna Sinn. (Interestingly enough, Lavina's voice sounds exactly like Arianna's.) In this introduction, Lavina tells all about herself, where she's from, when she began to develop her fine and foxy figure and other juicy details. Lavina found out about TSG from a friend. This is her first time with professional photographers and she is excited. In her free time, Lavina likes to go to the movies, read, play music and go out with friends to pubs and clubs. "I want to visit a lot of countries, travel by cruise ship and one day I hope to open my own massage salon," Lavina said. Play away. She is a sexy doll. Lavina's first photo set and video are coming on September 10th, '13!

In the end, the supercommittee couldn't save us. Congress' Joint Committee on Deficit Reduction -- called "the supercommittee" because of its broad authority to recommend new taxes and spending cuts to fix the federal government's growing spending beyond its means -- failed to reach a deal Monday, its self-imposed deadline.
The deadline, two days before its legal deadline, was intended to allow a detailed accounting before the presentation of a report Wednesday.
The committee failed because of politics -- the deep rift between Democrats and Republicans over the proper balance between spending cuts and tax increases. It was the same debate that led to creation of the joint committee.
With two House Republicans, Michigan was the only state with two members on the equally partisan 12-member panel. Rep. Dave Camp of Midland said the failure of the committee was "a serious disappointment," blaming Democrats for demanding too much in taxes. Rep. Fred Upton of St. Joseph said the committee was battling against "steep odds."
Now, the law enacted in August as part of a deal to increase the nation's debt limit triggers $1.2 trillion in across-the-board reductions, but those don't take effect until January 2013, ensuring they will loom over next year's presidential and congressional elections. President Barack Obama vowed to veto legislation that stalls those automatic cuts.
"We need to keep the pressure up to compromise," he said, calling on Congress to find a "balanced" plan to reduce the deficit by at least $1.2 trillion. "That's the job they promised to do. ... They still have a year to figure it out."As written, the law calls for about half of the across-the-board cuts to come from defense spending, a level not only Republicans have balked at but the Pentagon, the White House and Senate Armed Services Chairman Carl Levin, a Michigan Democrat, have said is too large. House Armed Services Chairman Howard P. (Buck) McKeon of California said he plans to propose legislation to block the $500-billion defense cut.
But avoiding the across-the-board cuts may be especially difficult because in the Senate, a super-majority of 60 votes is needed to pass contentious bills. Passing the supercommittee recommendation would have required a simple majority of 51 votes.
The remainder of the cuts will come from domestic programs, although the cuts to Medicare -- the government insurance program for elderly Americans -- is limited to 2%. Democrats will argue against such deep cuts to programs that could affect education, housing, community policing and more.
"I'm not surprised they didn't come to an agreement," said former Michigan Gov. Jim Blanchard, a Washington consultant and Democrat. "I think these guys just want to postpone everything until after the election."
Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson, a Republican, was more blunt: "The whole goddamned Congress should be held up to scathing denunciation for their inability to deal with a $15-trillion deficit."
The problem was the same as at the outset: Democrats wanted Republicans to sign off on a deal that would bring more tax revenue into government coffers without demanding that tax cuts for wealthy people, put in place in 2001 and 2003, be extended beyond the end of next year.
Republicans wanted Democrats to move further on cutting spending and reforming Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security than they were willing to go.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said Republicans "relentlessly sought to end Medicare as we know it by privatizing the program." Republican House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said he will forge ahead with ways to cut government spending, signaling that little common ground was ultimately reached.
"For months, I have warned that depending solely on spending cuts to address the deficit, without restoring revenue, would fail to achieve real deficit reduction while endangering important commitments to American families and the national defense," Levin said. "Today's announcement brings us one step closer to that fate."
In both parties, members of Congress vowed to work to try to balance spending without destroying either important programs or putting the economy at further risk. But there were already concerns as the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped nearly 250 points on Monday.
Effects of uncertainty
Lansing consultant John Truscott said the problem is not just with the potential reaction of the markets but business people and investors who are holding onto their money because of the uncertainty about tax and spending policies in Washington.
Some pundits have suggested that Democrats felt little urgency to reach a deal because the Bush-era tax cuts will disappear on their own at the end of next year without Congress doing anything.
But those rates are set to go up on middle-class voters, too, barring a change. Other decisions won't wait for next year and the November elections, either: A continuing resolution funding the government will expire Dec. 16, another funding bill will be needed.
Any extension of unemployment insurance will require congressional approval as will the yearly patch for the alternative minimum tax and an extension of the payroll tax cut, without which, the White House says, the average family making $50,000 a year could see its taxes go up $1,000 in the new year.
U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., did manage to work out a bipartisan deal with the Republican-led House in her role as chair of the Senate Agriculture Committee. Their agreement -- sent to the supercommittee as way to cut $23 billion -- calls for ending the system of direct payments that subsidize farmers even when profits are up and instructs states to implement rules prohibiting lottery winners from receiving food assistance.
Leroy Fick, 59, of Auburn continued to receive food stamps after winning $2 million in the Michigan lottery last year.
Even though the agreement is now set aside, Stabenow said Monday it could form the basis of next year's farm bill.

Word that Kate Spencer, aka Manhunter, might appear on Arrow first appeared when actress Ashley Scott tweeted she was auditioning.
She didn't get the role but Chelah Horsdal did and will be appearing, according to IMDB, in next week's episode, "Damaged" where given the plot she'll most likely play the DA prosecuting Ollie.
If you are aren't familiar with the character, you can read this.
Oooooo!!!! I can't wait to see Arrow's rendition of Kate & her Manhunter outfit! :)
Having all these great lady characters really makes me wish Arrow were better.
Oh! Manhunter! That would be so great!
She beat me to it ;D

Well here it is. After reading this you should be able to:
- Add an SD/MMC card to your Arduino.
- Read data from and write data to it using the uFat and DevicePrint libraries.
- Understand a few of the issues related to the process.
On with the show.
MMC cards are a microcontroller's best friend. They can speak a serial protocol called SPI which is natively supported in the microcontroller hardware. I love 'em. You only need 4 IO lines to transmit commands and data to the card and receive data back. These connections go by a number of names but this is the set which will service you best:
/CS (not card select)
CLK (clock)
MOSI (master out, slave in)
MISO (master in, slave out)
Master in all cases is the Arduino. Digital pins 10 through 13 are the dedicated SPI connections. If your application already uses these you'll have to move things around! All the SD/MMC enabled boards I've seen use these pins. The information here should be applicable to anyone's SD/MMC enabled hardware.
Here's the MMC pinout...
...and here's how it needs to be connected:
MMC Arduino
1 10
2 11
3 gnd
4 3v3
5 13
6 gnd
7 12
MMC Cards require between 2.7 and 3.6 volts to operate. Low power varieties are also available that work down to 1.8V, though these are special and more rare. You can power a card from the Arduino's 3v3 output if it's available on your particular Arduino variety. There will need to be some level conversion on the /CS, CLK and MOSI lines, as these output 5V. As the Arduino regards 2.4V and above as a logic high, no level conversion needs to be done on the MISO line. There are some boards out there which operate at 3.3V natively, and for these boards all lines may be connected directly.
We do any neccessary 5V level conversion in the simplest way possible: with a voltage divider. There is great information elsewhere, linked below, so I won't go into any more detail than this:
VDD --[R1]-- v --[R2]-- GND
The voltage v can be calculated by using the following formula:
v = (VDD*R2) / (R1+R2)
In most cases you should use R1 = 1K8 and R2 = 3K3. Tapping the voltage at the centre of the resistor/resistor connection yields ~ 3.24V. Actual values will vary a little depending on the accuracy of the resistors.
Some cards can cope with voltages out of the specified range, and some cannot. I have cards which have functioned happily as high as 4.3V, and one in particular which developed a high fever followed by sudden explosive death when faced with the same levels... Ahem. The less said about that the better.
The product standard dictates the signal levels that you should aim for in your circuit.
Input HIGH voltage:
- min: 0.625 * VDD
- max: VDD + 0.3
- min: VSS - 0.3
- max: 0.25 * VDD[/tt]
There are 3 kinds of socket available. MMC, SD and floppy-drive edge connector
- MMC sockets have 7 connectors and map 1:1 to the diagram above.
- SD sockets can have up to 12 or 13 pins, but only the main 7 need to be used. The remainder are for detection of card insertion and write protect status of compatible SD cards. agent_orange's schematic shows a socket of this type.
- Floppy edge-connector sockets are best for MMC cards (SD cards are thicker with ridges protecting the contacts) but are undoubtedly the cheapest! Check out the ingenious hack at Up All Night Robotics, linked below.
It might not even help to discuss the MMC's command protocol over and above the fact that data transfers happen in 512 byte blocks. This can be changed, but I don't think there's a compelling reason to do this, especially as this most usually matches the sector size of the card.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) -- A shootout on South Bend's west side has left two persons dead and a third person injured after being shot by police.
South Bend Police Division Chief Gary Horvath tells WSBT-TV that one victim was found outside a home, and Metro Homicide Commander Tim Corbett tells the station a second victim was found in an alley next door.
When police responded to the shootings Sunday morning, a gunman opened on officers, who returned fire, striking the suspect. The gunman was taken to a hospital for surgery.
Residents of the neighborhood were asked to stay inside their homes while police blocked off the area.
Police did not immediately release the names of the persons involved.

Response to
How to Live Unhappily Ever After
You know, as soon as we put the "I want..." into action, I think we cause ourselves extra exertions!
Not to say we we should not aspire to a something, but I see the keys words as "I AM"...
This works for me. I cannot say if it will for others. It's just that I AM wipes away so many frustrations and desires for me and I really do often just look around and say, THANKS for what I have.
Yep, sounds trite but it is true. I just believe IT knows my needs and will provide what is 'necessary'.
Having said all that I do play at stuff. I walk down the street like a GODDESS, (walk like an Egyptian
) I role play - for fun. It is as if ALL I already have, and it comes at the 'right' time.
Who feels great all the time? Its OK to feel down, get stuff out of our system, BUT to get back to Balance soon as we can.
My Secret to getting back to base is all my favourite music and songs. Usually this is a GREAT time for my ehadphones and LOAD music and a dance around! Not a pretty site but I really don'y care! Haha..
It's funny rally this tralk of super positiveness. I wonder how much of it really is. We can have a surface positivity, which is OK as a start, but we need to make this a naturalness, which means to keep bringing It on.
Again and again if necessary until we actually alter exisiting mind patterns.
" The facts of life may be, at times, unbearably painful. But the core, the bones of life are generous beyond all reason or belief. Those things which ought to kill us do not. This should be taken as encouragement to continue."
I love this. It really is a Truth. When you really analyse how we have be made to struggle nearly each and every minute in this agenda's life, then we should give ourselves credit for such amazing strnegth and perseverence.
Life at this Moment is a struggle for most. Yet we have learned to still be able to dance and sing despite this.
Don't let the buggers grind you down. DANCE the Dance of Life in spite of them.
Good vibes sounds just like an old hippy type slogan but it is actually quite powerful. Each vibe adds to the Energy Grids. Each counts to the negative or the positive.
Thanks for this, Mondo. I have been 'working with depression' (as you know) this last year or so and I am seeing some good results from the sufferer.
I am lloking at some other stuff from Augustus Burroughs .
"I like flaws and feel more comfortable around people who have them. I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.
Augusten Burroughs, Magical Thinking: True Stories
Hah! Jackie Bailey could also have said that!
(Hey! He can be a bit 'in your face', can't he?)
It was impossible to escape her. She provided no natural break in the conversation, and she spoke with such intensity that I would have had to abruptly shout "SHUT THE FUCK UP," punch her, and then run away in order to be free.
I have also been 'here'...
Love it!

SCHENECTADY, N.Y. — A Schenectady man has been charged with murder after police said he sexually assaulted a child and murdered a child born to one of his alleged victims and disposed of its body.
Herman Robinson, 38, was charged with Murder, Predatory Sexual Assault Agaisnt a Child, Course of Sexual Conduct against a Child, three counts of Rape, Criminal Sexual Assault, and Endangering the Welfare of a Child.
On December 13, 2013, Robinson was initially charged with three Sexual Assault offenses. After further investigation, the murder and additional sexual assault charges were added.
Robinson is accused of engaging in various acts of sexual conduct with a child from the time the child was 11 and continuing until she was eighteen years old. An investigation revealed that Robinson impregnated the girl in June 2009, and she gave birth to a baby in March 2010.
Robinson killed the baby and disposed of its body upon delivery. The victim of the sexual assaults was not a stranger and is now in a safe location.
The District Attorney's Office began investigating the case in December 2013, when they said police were called to Robinson's Lenox Road home. They would not comment on why they were called or how Robinson came into contact with the victim.
"It was a child known to him. It was not a stranger, but I am not going to comment on the specific relationship," Assistant District Attorney Tracey Brunecz said.
Prosecutors said the sexual assault went on for six years at several different Schenectady homes. Robinson also had a family of his own.
"To my knowledge, Mr. Robinson has four children," Brunecz said. "Three of which are biological children; one is a step-child."
Even though the victim was only 11-years-old when the abuse began, prosecutors said she never said a word to her family - not even her mother.
"She was shocked to learn of what went on," Brunecz continued. "She is helping her daughter."
Brunecz said the victim may have hid her pregnancy by wearing baggy clothes and not telling anyone.
Clinical psychologist Dr. Rudy Nyddegar said sexual assault cases are not that uncommon.
"There are more unreported than reported cases," he said.
Nyddegar said if someone is being raped over a period of time there will be signs, even if they are subtle. He said adults should be aware of behavioral changes.
"I don't know if anyone noticed if anything was amiss, but she was in school and hid her pregnancy," he said.
Brunecz said the victim is safe home with her family and brave.
"This is something she has had to deal with over the course of the last six years or so, but she is handling things very well," she said. "And I am truly amazed at her strength."
The arraignment for Robinson on the indictments is scheduled for Monday, March 10 at 9 a.m.

I have had Verizon since 12/15/11. It is now March 30, 2012, and I have yet to receive my $300 Visa Card that was part of the package and choosing Verizon as my phone, television and internet. Your company as been jerking me around since February. I have written to the Better Business Bureau in Washington, DC., telling how Verizon does not follow through with what they tell their customers on their contract. I thought Arrogance of Power went out with Organized Crime. Quit **bleep** with your customers, Verizon and give them what you say your going to. Look forward to hearing from the Better Business Bureau. They are real **bleep** when they hear consumers are being screwed by big business.
Sorry to hear about the troubles with your reward card. What is the process it says when you go to www.verizon.com/rewards and login with your order number as the username and your last name as the password?

I am having the same problem, except I was supposed to get a $500.00 visa card. I just called client services and apparently someone switched me from a 2 year plan to a month to month plan. I started with Verizon Fios at the end of December. I was told that I should have had listened to a terms of service call in order to have been put on a 2 year plan and because I didn't, I was switched to a monthly plan. My question is why wasn't I told about this terms of service call? And why was I switched without my knowledge? I am not a happy client right now.
Same problem. I switched over from Brighthouse December 1st. Was told would receive a $300.00 visa gift card within 90 days. Impossible to reach anyone. Went into a Verizon store today and they looked up my account. Told me there was nothing showing i was to receive the Visa gift card. Complete scam....ive read a couple post where other victims were told they did not respond to a phone call so they were no longer entitled to the card. Never had issues with Brighthouse...bad mistake. Will be going back to brighthouse. At least there customer service is good. Verizon is nothing but smoke and mirrors. BBB complaint will be filed.

Summer is a great time for riding bikes and having fun outdoors. If you or your child are out riding, make sure everyone is wearing a helmet!
We created the Helmets & Heroes program to encourage kids to wear helmets when riding bicycles. Helmets & Heroes is a summer bicycle safety program sponsored by the Trauma One Center at OU Medicine in partnership with the Metro Area Traffic Safety Council (MATSC), Kohl's Cares, The Childrens' Hospital Volunteers and area McDonald's restaurants.
The program runs during the summer until Labor Day. Area police departments that are part of MATSC will be handing out "tickets" to bicyclists who they see wearing helmets. The tickets (coupons) are good for prizes. You can redeem the coupon for a free ice cream at any Oklahoma City area McDonald's stores and go to the web address listed on the coupon to register for a chance to win.

US President Barrack Obama has invited President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy William Ruto to a ceremony in White House to be held later this year.
According to a source close to the US consulate in Nairobi, President Obama sent invitation letters to the two leaders requesting them to attend the African Heads of State dinner organised by White House.
The source said the US President was happy with the way Kenyans conducted the last poll and he wants to thank the two leaders for preaching peace and reconciliation before and after the March 4th poll.
Uhuru and Ruto are accused of heinous crimes at the International Criminal Court (ICC) and this might open another debate in the US, when President Obama meets the two leaders.
But political experts and analysts have argued that Obama has the right to meet the two leaders accused at ICC since America itself is not a member of the ICC.

Re: How do I get insurance and how much does it cost?
With a small boat that is sailed locally, you might get an inexpensive policy from your house or car insurance company. It may not have all the coverages that a more specialized insurer could provide, but it would get you into the marina. As boats get bigger and plans get more ambitious, going through someone like Boat US or some marine speciality insurer or marine insurance broker would make more sense. Also, you'll see a lot of ads for brokers and insurers in the backs of boating magazines.

And those that I *have* learned from have only served to reinforce my stance.
However, by that reasoning, and since abortion is a pregnancy and health care choice, everyone best listen to those women who HAVE had children, who HAVE experienced complications during pregnancy and childbirth, as well as post-partum. They have a LOT to learn form them as well.
So scootchie up a chair- I've got miscarriage, pre term contrax, modified bed rest, hospital-enforced bed rest, premature rupture of membranes, multiple c sections, scores of adhesions, damaged bladder, and tubal ligation covered.
Others here have numerous birthing and pregnancy complications in which they have expertise- this would be a valuable resource indeed.

I'm just a lurker, but what a great post!
I can kick in my severe preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome, intrauterine growth restriction, poor placental function, days-long induction while on magnesium sulfate, complete bedrest and pelvic rest, thrice-weekly non-stress tests and 24-hour urine collections, a possible case of fetal hydrops (and almost a PUBS procedure on a 27-week fetus), my own permament kidney damage (and temporary liver damage), post-partum bedrest and frequent testing, serious cord incidents during labor...shall I go on? This will be a fun storytelling experience! ;O)

There ya go!
I want every women to be every so FULLY informed before making a choice to continue a pregnancy and delve into childbirth unaware of the very real short and long term risks. I could learn a lot form you- you've covered a lot I didn't have!

Hell yes, if we're 'walking a mile' let's cover the gestation side as well.
|Sun, 11-01-2009 - 3:58pm
Me too. Both of my children were very much planned-for and wanted, but nothing prepared me for the problems I had with my first. Then I had all the same problems with my second, plus a bunch of new ones I'd never even heard of. Now I've got two beautiful, healthy children, but my own body is pretty much shot to hell. There's very little in this world that makes me angrier than a woman who won't educate herself, or refuses to be educated by another, when it comes to this topic.
Hey, between you and me, and some of the other women on this board that I'm acquainted with from elsewhere, we could probably stage a coup d'etat on ACOG and start our own experienced-based professional organization. ;O)

LOL! I love it!
ETA for those who have no idea what we're talking about - Thistle and I had a lot of the same crap with our births, although hers was WAY scarier.
Can we carry a sign that says 'Resist Induction'?

"I mean, if that's the way we're meant to be playing we should probably remind everyone to grab their biggest mounts and sit on the quest givers between ganks..."
This happens anyway even on PVE servers. There is always someone on a big ol' mammoth standing just right on top of the quest guy. Or what tends to annoy me the most, is where theres 2 quest givers together, that if you stand between them you can easily talk to both without moving. This works great for anyone who is standing off a mount, but about half the time someone is there on something huge blocking both. This has nothing to do with world pvp, or pvp at all.. its something that I'd imagine happens on all servers no matter what.

This Kreme Is a Rising Star
Robert is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Krispy Kreme Doughnuts (NYSE: KKD) looks like it is once again on the right track with rising international store counts in places like India and Russia and a sharply higher stock price over the past twelve months. Despite heavy competition in the quick serve category for the morning crowd, especially from Dunkin' Brands (NASDAQ: DNKN) and Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX), the company has strong brand loyalty to its signature doughnuts. It has also found its way to better profits with smaller stores that expand its reach into less populated areas. So, does this story still have legs?
What's the value?
Despite a history that pre-dates its larger competitors, Krispy Kreme was primarily a regional operator, clustered in the U.S. southeast area, until its initial public offering in 2000 brought name recognition and a major national expansion push. Its subsequent fast growth led management to take on debt to buy out franchisees, a bad strategy that almost sank the company when overall sales growth tapered off. Fortunately, Krispy Kreme survived thanks to a strong international base of stores that has continued to grow each year, with operations currently in 22 countries.
In its latest fiscal year, Krispy Kreme reported strong financial results, with increases in revenues and operating income of 8.1% and 47.3%, respectively, versus the prior year. Its sales growth benefited from rising comparable store sales, up 5.5% for the period, as well as the addition of stores in new and existing international markets. More importantly, the company's gross and operating margins increased as it successfully pushed through price increases in both retail and wholesale channels.
Butting heads with the coffee giants
Of course, Krispy Kreme is a bit of a one-act wonder, as doughnuts constitute roughly 88% of its overall sales. Management seems to understand the need to diversify its product line, though, with recent introductions of new coffee blends and its Chiller line of frozen beverages. However, the company's desire to increase its revenues from coffee sales puts it directly in the headlights of the growth-oriented coffee chains.
One of those major competitors is Dunkin' Brands, which has built a formidable global operation with almost 18,000 locations in 55 countries around the world. It utilizes the franchise model almost exclusively, which has allowed it to grow very fast, almost doubling its store count over the past ten years. In addition, the company has been pushing beyond its trademark doughnut and coffee offerings with greater food options, like breakfast burritos and bagel sandwiches.
In FY2013, Dunkin' Brands has generated solid financial results, with increases in revenues and adjusted operating income of 6.0% and 35.3%, respectively, compared to the prior-year period. The company benefited from strong comparable store sales in its domestic Dunkin' Donuts and international Baskin-Robbins segments, as well as the addition of 700 stores around the world. In addition, Dunkin' Brands continues to generate growth in the wholesale market, with a leading position for its packaged and single-serve products.
Naturally, the biggest competitive threat is Starbucks, the largest coffeehouse chain that gets bigger and stronger every year, with a current base of over 19,000 stores around the world. While the company continues to place its stores on every high-trafficked corner in the U.S., it has set its sights on similarly dominating the coffee scene in high-growth Asian markets. Starbucks is also looking to enhance its standing among the tea-drinking population, purchasing the Teavana chain of tea shops for roughly $616 million in 2012.
In FY2013, Starbucks has continued to report solid financial results, with increases in revenues and adjusted operating income of 11.7% and 21.9%, respectively, versus the prior-year period. Its top-line growth was aided by rising same store sales, up 8% for the period, as well as the opening of over 1,500 new locations around the globe. In addition, the company has been a beneficiary of falling coffee commodity costs, which has provided a strong positive bump to its bottom line. Looking ahead, Starbucks is adding a greater variety of food items to its store network, a rare sore spot among customers, which should eliminate an advantage previously enjoyed by its competitors.
The bottom line
Krispy Kreme is on the rise, though it still needs to lower its business risk by increasing the diversity of its product offerings. Major competitors Dunkin' Brands and Starbucks continue to upgrade their own product offerings and will likely be the major competition in Krispy Kreme's expansion plans. However, consumers' love of morning coffee and doughnuts seems to have no signs of slowing down, despite occasional price increases, providing room for all three competitors to pursue their growth ambitions. They all belong on investors' watchlists.

The Bechdel Test
The Bechdel Test, sometimes called the Mo Movie Measure or Bechdel Rule is a simple test which names the following three criteria: (1) it has to have at least two women in it, who (2) who talk to each other, about (3) something besides a man. The test was popularized by Alison Bechdel's comic Dykes to Watch Out For, in a 1985 strip called The Rule. For a nice video introduction to the subject please check out The Bechdel Test for Women in Movies on feministfrequency.com.

In more potty training news, a mom was fined $50 because her potty training 2-year-old peed on the sidewalk. Here's the story.
"Here's a story that will totally piss off anyone who has tried to potty train a toddler (pun totally intended). Philadelphia mom Caroline Robboy was given both a ticket and a lecture by a police officer this past Sunday evening because her 2-year-old potty-training son, Nathaniel, couldn't hold it."
"I kid you not. She told NBC10 that they were in a store with her two other children and elderly in-laws when the toddler said he needed to go. She asked if they could use the restroom, and they were "told no." Upon exiting the store the boy couldn't hold it and ran over to a pole on the sidewalk to get some relief."
"When she saw what was happening, she tried to at least get him to move to a grassy patch, but it was too late. A police officer saw it and busted them, issuing her a $50 ticket for public urination."
I think we all pretty much agreed that bringing a toilet into a restaurant and letting a kid sit on it while eating was over the line, but what about a kid peeing on the street?
I think there is an age qualification to this and trying to get the child to a private area if possible, like an alley. I can see how a 2-year old wouldn't be able to hold it. I would hope a 5-year-old or older could hold it until we got to a gas station or restaurant. If he couldn't hold it, I would try to get as private of place as possible.
I sure wouldn't shop in that store again that wouldn't let a child use their restroom. I find that generally store owners are nice about that.
What do you think?

The most appalling shopping experience ever – my kid had to go, and we were told no. In a kids' clothing and toy store!

Write the parent up. Sorry, there are rules in society. If the child is not potty trained, have the kid wear diapers. The world is not a urinal and I don't want to see or step in your child's pee-pee. Pay the ticket and learn from the mistake.
September 17th, 2012

Do they typically fine dog owners when their dogs urinate on fire hydrants? Or in the grass? Or on trees?
If the kid had dropped a deuce on the sidewalk and nobody cleaned it up, I could understand, but urine evaporates.
September 17th, 2012
8:06 am
Public sidewalk is not the place to let your child pee. Yes, I have children so I know that sometimes you have emergencies. How on earth does a 2 year old run over alone to a pole to get some relief without the Mom? My 2 year old never had the freedom of running around without me holding his had or he was in a stroller. Pick your child up and find a decent place for them to go.

@ VOR…you made me think of this…I was once visiting children at a school in the south. After the children joined my presentation, they came out to meet me and introduce themselves. I asked them to tell me their name and favorite color:
I am Adam and I like blue.
I am Sophia and I like pink.
I am Carter and I like green.
I am SNOW ( real name) and I like yellow.
Mental image of the dog's yellow that sticks to snow for a LONG time up north and does not go away. I have told this to teachers all over and southerners never laugh as much as northerners. Perhaps we have not endured a lot of yellow snow.
September 17th, 2012
8:29 am
There is more to this I am sure….The child must have unzipped. So yeah, she should be fined. No cop is writing a ticket for a toddler wetting his pants.
September 17th, 2012
8:31 am
I think the mom should pay the fine and be more selective in her outrage in the future. If your 2 year old is not capable of holding it, they should be at home or in a pull-up.
September 17th, 2012
8:39 am
I would have to have seen this to have an definite opinion. Why couldn't she have walked him outside and guided him to a private spot? I'm with CC. This is not a dog that just takes off running away from you to the nearest pole. Or at least it shouldn't be.
That being said, I have been in children's stores that have no public bathroom and I never went back. Also I have been in places with no public restrooms where they, without hesitation let me take a two/three yr. old to the bathroom because they understood the urgency.
I have no problem with letting a little boy pee behind a building, a tree etc.. but I would not be okay with just letting him do it anywhere in front of everybody.
The ticket was probably over the top. I know a lot of cops who pee outside. He could have just told her it was inappropriate and that she should have made sure he was in a more private area. My son has pee'd behing the car door in a parking lot in desperate times when he was two or three.
This is just a situation where everyone could have used a bit more common sense.

Teaching a child break the law, or that laws don't apply to everyone is not a part of potty training. Why teach a child to do something, just to teach them later its wrong. Some people don't believe in pull-ups but if you know you won't be able to make potty stops they're a necessary evil. In this particular case, if you read the full story, the family had just eaten at a Johnny Rockets. Why on earth did the mother not make the child "try to go" at the restaurant before leaving? The ticket may be over board but she never have allowed the child to just pee in public, and she really should have planned better to have avoided the situation in the first place.
September 17th, 2012
10:16 am
Would like to hear the officer's side of the story. Wonder if she went off on him when he was just trying to warn her. There are times when people just talk themselves into tickets.
September 17th, 2012
10:26 am
I have to agree with Roni, there is more to the story that needs to be told here. In fact, Theresa – I think you need to update the excerpt. The mother SHOULD have taken her child to the restroom at Johnny Rockets. My daugther is 3 1/2, and while we've been potty trained for over a year, I'm still aware that she has a small bladder and will enforce potty breaks even if she tells me she doesn't need to 'go' (because 9 out of 10 times she really does have to potty). When she was potty training, we hit a potty every 30-45 minutes just as a precaution. As a parent, common sense is your responsibility.
September 17th, 2012
10:29 am
I'm with the others who think there is more to this story than meets the eye. No reasonable police officer would have given this woman a ticket had there not been some other "motivating" factor.
September 17th, 2012
10:46 am
Difficult to know all the details but it seems to me that considering the circumstances and the child's age that the proper response would have been to issue a warning in lieu of a citation. Now its a news story and the officer & his/her department are going to get about 1000X more than $50 worth of heat over this.
On a related front. Doesn't it seem like there is lot of law enforcement getting involved in parenting stuff now-a-days? You've got this story and the one where the lady was cited for leaving her kid in the car while she was 20 ft away and a few others like it.
September 17th, 2012

Mom was wrong, and apparently not controlling her child either, since he ran away from her to go pee.
September 17th, 2012
11:08 am
A friend's 3 or 4 year old was at the pool and needed to go. He did, alright, right off the end of the diving board with everyone watching in horror or amazement.
September 17th, 2012
11:39 am
You mean to tell me that a two year old knew enough to "[run] over to a pole on the sidewalk and get some relief"? Doubtful. What's more likely is that the Mom steered him there – and got caught.
And no, I don't believe there should be any distinction between a child urinating on the sidewalk (or anywhere else in public) and an adult. Accidents are one thing, but actually unzipping and "going"? Nope. Mom should have been fined.
September 17th, 2012
12:57 pm
Yes she should be fined, that's why you take your child behind a bush or tree, something. Advertising it to world shows lack of parenting skills.

He's TWO people! Get a grip. It's not like she takes him out everyday just to pee on the sidewalk. Anybody turned on by a 2 year old penis is a sick F&%k anyway. IT'S ONLY URINE!
September 17th, 2012
3:53 pm
I agree that the police officer was pretty harsh about this. I think a warning should have been sufficient. This little guy is only two years old! I am pretty sure the mom didn't want her son to pee on the side walk- things have a way of happening like that, especially with kids. Don't be so quick to judge the mom…I think this kind of thing could happen to any family with small kids. Just for this reason I always try to go to stores that allow people to use the restroom. It makes life a lot easier!

Just another example of the amerikan police state out of control. Everytime you say "there should be a law" or "why doesn't someone do something" or you support a political candidate who says he/she will "get tough on crime" you endorce this kind of government overreach and failure.
Government should protect individual liberty and private property rights – and that's it. If they didn't control, own, operate, govern every piece of property in the nation, situations like this could be handled by the property owner and maybe some common sense. Zero tollerance and government greed have replaced all of that so now a $50 fine is imposed to help fund the paycheck of the very donut eating tax parasite that wrote the ticket. Time to slash the laws and end the police state. That process begins by all of us taking a completely different attitude of what we will continue to allow our government officials to do to us.

Off topic, but I need some advice: A financial manager's airhead wife is having an affair. Do I tell him!? He's cheated on her too, but she's now doing it (which isn't anything new, from what others have said). Thoughts?

At least she didn't pee on the sidewalk.

he–the money guy–is a friend. But the wife and I have never been close because she's ~airheaded, and I can't deal with that type. Even he has tired of her, but it's cheaper to keep her-type thing, plus she's arm candy. But she's not the little saint she portends to be and now I know this for a fact. In a way I don't care, but then, I'd want to know (but I'm a woman). Hmmm. thanks to mm, j and any replies.

In some places adults caught urinating in public have been charged with indecent exposure and found themselves on the sexual offender's website for years to come along with child molesters and rapists. Yes, this was a two year old. However, it shouldn't be dismissed too cavalierly.
September 17th, 2012
11:30 pm
Of course parents shouldn't be letting their kids relieve themselves in public, but anyone who has ever taken care of a toddler for more than an hour knows that they can and will do inappropriate, embarrassing things. Unless there is more to the story, a ticket seems like an overreaction.
September 19th, 2012
2:55 am
There's more to the story, I'll bet. However, a 2 yr. old who is likely in the early stages of potty training should be wearing pullups when he/she is in a situation where he/she could have an accident. It sends the wrong message to allow a child to pee/poop in public. Though the 2 yr. old is not responsible here, it is trashy behavior on the mother's part.

This sounds funny, but I actually value those feelings more than I value my sanity...I don't know if you've actually been mad. If not, I'm filing this under Bold Claims :-)
And the older I get, the more God seems important and logic seems trivial. I am starting to lose more and more people that I care about. This breaks my heart. I WANT to see them again.Fair enough.
I NEED to see them again.There are ways.
I'd argue that this simplification -- a lie -- is important for survival. One mustn't miss the forest for the trees.It's that danged common language again - we clearly mean different things by "lie" :-)
If disregarding (or believing lies about) parts of reality help pass on genes, then a good gene-passing machine should do just thatIf you mean "should" in the sense of "could reasonably be expected to" then of course I agree.
If you click later, and try to get back to your work, it pops up again -- after about five minutes -- and asks you when you want to reboot. You have to either give into it (reboot) or keep clicking later, later, later......or get pissed off enough about it that you go looking for a way to get it under control - does firing up Regedit constitute cognitive behavioural therapy for Windows?
Pretty much (but not quite)?Pretty much, as in I found myself fully believing one bizarre thing after another with great rapidity. For example: my grandmother is dying right now, and sending me 95 years' worth of gleeful secret confessions in the clouds; the letters C7 on the glass door of this Changi Airport boarding gate are a heavily compressed coded message from my dead uncle; the Internet has achieved sentience, and its shooting down of TWA Flight 800 was a fit of childish pique; the red blinking light on the end of the travelator is the Internet's way of trying to communicate with me; the security camera on the wall up there is one of the Internet's eyes; it's a good idea to show that eye a piece of improvised nude performance art symbolizing and protesting against humanity's destructive rampage across our planet; this polite Singapore police sergeant pretending to arrest me is an enlightened being who Understands what's Really Going On, and so is that guy in the cleaner's overalls, and so is anybody wearing purple, and so are all women; there's a coded message to be found in every taxi licence plate; eating that cigarette butt somebody has left on the floor of the interrogation room will cure the throat cancer I've just realized I have; wearing these handcuffs is causing complete paralysis of my entire body; and so on and so on and so on.
Fairly well (but there are exceptions)?Yes. It's quite possible to put a healthily functioning brain into a state where it adopts new beliefs almost immediately; that's what hypnosis is all about. I don't know any accomplished self-hypnotists, so I can't tell you how fast it's possible to enter a trance state, auto-suggest a new belief, and resume normal consciousness; but in any case, this would seem to break your requirement about not needing "steps".
You mean (1) to work out the implications to make sure it is consistent with everything else, and (2) to get used to using it in sentences?No, I mean integrating it into my worldview to the extent that if I find myself in a situation where the belief is applicable, I act on the basis of it without having to become aware of its presence as a new belief. And I'm talking here about beliefs about hard-to-test things like the true motivations of Fred.
And perhaps some cases are so easy that one could synthesize it (well enough to meet the belief prerequisite) immediately as raising one's arm.Seems to me that going from general beliefs to particular ones will often happen at comparable speeds to the arm-raising process. For example, if I already have a general belief that there are frequently traffic cops with speed cameras along my route to work, and I see a car parked by the side of the road ahead, it doesn't take very long at all to believe that "that's probably a camera cop so it's worth a quick glance down at the speedo". But, once again, there doesn't seem to be a pre-belief desire-to-have-a-belief step there.
One of the parts that I found most illuminating was when they were discussing the children's understandings of how vision and light worked. Many of the children believed that the light rays emanated from their eyes because they had seen cats' and dogs' shine in the dark. After the science was explained to them, they were asked if they would be able to see an apple in a perfectly dark room, and almost all said that they would, after enough time. But the funny thing was, after they personally performed the experiment, and found that they couldn't see the apple no matter how long they sat in the dark, they still maintained that if they had just waited longer, eventually they'd have been able to see it.And my own, which is very similar:
What impressed me is the way the children would latch on to an idea (we could call it belief, but that has its own baggage) based on the information they were given in class. Even though they could reason fairly well, they would stall when they realized that their reasoning was in conflict with the idea that they had interpolated from the lesson. Many believed that the bulb holder was an integral part of getting the bulb to light up, for example. Once they reached that kind of impasse they didn't have a strong instinct to get down to experimenting to see what would actually work.posted by Chuckles at 10:28 AM on July 11, 2006

To be honest, there's not a lot of "learning" required -- I was able to pick up the new shadow priest pretty easily. You have to refresh SW:P now, but that just takes the spot on your keybind that Devouring Plague did. Sure, you have to fire off your Shadowy Apparitions when you hit 3 orbs (or sooner, if you're moving), but they feel more important and satisfying now that you can control when they happen. VE moves onto your toolbar to replace Divine Hymn as your powerful emergency heal that you don't have to stop DPSing to use.
All classes are going to get new abilities and lose old ones -- it's just part of the new expansion process. Give the shadow priest a try before you say you're hanging up your DoTs for good. It's a work in progress, and really, it's not that bad.

Take Two (TTWO) Interactive, Inc. [NASDAQ:TTWO] has had its fair share of CEO's come and go, from stock option criminal Ryan Brant to board takeover leader Strauss Zelnick. But one leadership role has remained the same for over ten years – the producers at Rockstar Games.
Every few years investors begin to worry about the same question: will Grand Theft Auto producers Sam and Dan Houser remain at Take Two or will they exit and take Rockstar leaders with them to a new studio? In 2008, it was big news that Take Two had made an agreement for them to stay on until at least early 2012. At this point, however, a new question needs to be raised: who is really in charge of Rockstar Games? Some evidence suggests Rockstar Games, a subsidiary of Take Two, is actually calling the shots when, for example, the Grand Theft Auto franchise takes a back seat to Rockstar's lesser known franchise, Max Payne.
The latest evidence of Rockstar doing what they want has to do with upcoming title, L.A. Noire. This game has been in Rockstar's hands for at least five years and has been in development for eight years. Sony gave away the troubled and expensive development of the title to Rockstar Games in exchange for exclusive rights to future Rockstar title Agent, according to a past report.
Rockstar Games had success with its most recent major release, Red Dead Redemption, which was labeled a 'Grand Theft Auto in the West'. Indeed, the Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto formula has been the developer's claim to fame. Outside of that formula, Take Two hasn't seen any big profitable returns at all since the console transition in 2005.
But Rockstar Games seems to live up to their name and do what they want. In this case, they wanted to partner with an outside developer (whose producers apparently are close friends of Rockstar Games' leads), on a title with a formula with no past precedent for success.
When Red Dead Redemption sales exploded, investors expected a spectacular earnings report. What they found out was how far Rockstar Games was willing to go with pouring development expenses onto an unproven franchise. That gamble payed off with Red Dead Redemption. But L.A. Noire looks like a bigger gamble, having no multiplayer aspect and not including a 'free roam' aspect, like Grand Theft Auto. Take Two is steadfast, however, with a television ad campaign that has started four weeks in advance of release. Five years of development by a team of over 100 with the aid of Rockstar Games' developers might very well be another budget north of 75 million, not including marketing. That would suggest a breakeven point for the title to be well over 3 million units. Take Two investors were shell-shocked by how much sales were needed to make Red Dead Redemption a success. If this title does not break out in a big way, investors should be prepared for another shocker.
