GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I was wondering when the schoolyear starts because I am starting hunking this year and I don't know when we go back to school
This school is falling apart ... in every way imaginable. Half of the building was condemned a couple of years ago for structural failures; the student lockers never shut properly; and the air quality reports released by the school department were unsatisfactory. It is no wonder the faculty are openly unmotivated to help struggling students when they do not get the support from the administration themselves. School district offers a "parent portal", but claims it cannot get its teachers to use it (making it useless). This school is the ongoing running joke of a school department that is itself a joke.
The principal ignores students that need extra help and does absolutely nothing against bullying a girl broke into my daughter's locker and smashed her Kindle. When brought to the principal and assistant principals attention they did absolutely NOTHING!! This school is a joke
Teachers and staff seem to do whatever they want. Many of the teachers show they don't care about the success of the kids. They pay attention to the kids all ready doing well. My daughter does well in school but it's because I help her and get her the resources she needs not because the school cares - at least that has been my exerience. Calls are not always returned, and the staff has a very bad attitude, rude when you question anything as if they do no wrong. The whole Haverhill public school system needs an overhaul. The previous principal was terrible and this one is only slightly better. I'm happy that my daughter is in 8th grade and will be leaving soon. She will NOT be going to no Haverhill High either! It's sad but now I understand why so many students drop out of Haverhill schools.
What ever happened to zero tolerance for bullies??? Not at this school.
I love this school! The teachers are great and the students learn everything!
its a very vstrict school but i love it
Good school for all 6-8 students. It might have a reputation for not having the funds to support the students, but in reality, they just got new school books for everyone. Plus, the teachers are all there to help the children.
Good School. Gives great opportunities to go to Washington, DC, Maine and New York. just gt new textbooks for all grades.

Where The Wild Things Are: An Ode To Childhood
By Chauncey Telese
Do you remember being nine years old? Remember how fun it was to build forts that would have things like lasers to defend against people you didn't like or other crazy additions? Do you remember telling stories that would make no sense but you didn't care? Do you remember freaking out because you heard that the sun was going to die? Do you remember how fun it was to just run around and pretend to shoot each other and yet no one would die because you all had force fields?
Well, I do. I was lucky enough to be one of the last generation of kids that got to truly experience this because nowadays it seems like kids don't really have recess and tag is outlawed at schools. I digress. My point is that seeing "Where the Wild Things Are" conjured up all of those forgotten feelings of being a nine year-old kid and how complicated that time really was. I've been waiting for a non-animated movie to not be afraid to go to some dark places, explore loneliness and the struggle to figure simple things out...movies like "The Goonies", "The Sandlot", and "The Never Ending Story". I am happy to report that "Where the Wild Things" is that movie.
The movie tells the story of Max (played brilliantly by Max Records) , a nine year-old kid who is highly imaginative, smart, but not "Home Alone" smart, who has a lot going on that he can't quite understand. His single mom, played by Catherine Keener, ("The 40-Year Old Virgin", "Capote") has to work all the time and while she loves Max, she can't quite give him the attention he needs. His sister is at that age where she'd rather hang out with friends and he gets mad after one of her friends smashes his igloo and she doesn't seem to care. This causes Max to mess up her room and otherwise act like an irrational monster. The same thing happens at dinner where he can't handle the thought of his mom going on a date. After an argument he runs away from home.
Max then sails away on a boat to an island inhabited by ferocious beasts and there he meets Carol played with great emotion by Tony Soprano himself James Gandolfini. Carol is a whirling dervish of emotions who goes into irrational temper tantrums when he is upset. Max meets the destructive yet calm Ira (Forrest Whitaker), his cynical downer of a wife Judith (Catherine O Hara "Home Alone", "Orange County"), the loner KW (Lauren Ambrose "Six Feet Under" "Can't Hardly Wait"), the ignored Alexander (Paul Dano "There Will Be Blood", "Little Miss Sunshine") and the loyal Douglas (Chris Cooper "Adaptation" "Seabiscuit"). They almost eat Max until he claims that he is a king and promises to make everyone happy. But after his first decree of "LET THE WILD RUMPUS START!" He finds that to be an arduous task.
The main knock on the movie is that there is no plot and that it is too much of a downer. That's what I liked about it. If you pay attention, you will realize why all of these wild things are screwed up and why they so desperately seek a king to lead them. That is not to say that it is not a fun movie, (there are dirt clod fights and fort building) but the true greatness of this film is watching Max try to deal with the sadness that exists with the Wild Things. His best interactions being with KW as she becomes like his older sister, and Carol because there is a lot of pain and confusion behind those big eyes of his.
This movie could've been done terribly, it could've had Max deal with a bully or something else and then the wild things would sing and dance and there would be a plethora of bad pop culture references. However, the man Warner Bros. picked to make this film (Spike Jonze) was too much of an artist to let it go down the "Cat in the Hat" road. Jonze has made over 200 music videos, co created MTV's "Jackass" and made such off-the-wall movies as "Being John Malkovich" and "Adaptation" so naturally he was the right person to do this movie. Also, the voice acting is top notch, Gandolfini is amazing as Carol and Lauren Ambrose is brilliant as KW. Max Records is asked to carry a lot of the films emotional weight on screen and knocks it out of the park like Ryan Howard against a Dodger pitcher (too soon?).
This is the best movie I've seen all year and I hope it makes the ten Best Picture nominees. Having seen some of the scenes at ComicCon I knew that this was going to be the first great kid movie (not animated) of the decade. Ironically though, I don't think kids will appreciate it until they are older as this throws a lot of heavy things at them.
Thank you for reading... because the only thing to come out next week is Michael Jackson's "This Is It" (it's not fair to review a compilation of rehearsal footage), I have a Halloween treat in store for you.

The service won't be available nationwide until mid-May, 2014.
Four top U.S. mobile phone service companies have agreed to set up a service to allow people to send text messages to emergency aid call center 911, the Federal Communication Commission said.
At present, emergency 911 services can be accessed only through a phone call. The change will particularly help people with hearing or speech disabilities.
AT&T Inc, Verizon Communications, Sprint Nextel Corp and T-Mobile have agreed to provide text-to-911 services, with major deployments expected in 2013, the FCC said in a statement. The service should be available nationwide by May 15, 2014.
"Access to 911 must catch up with how consumers communicate in the 21st century and today, we are one step closer towards that vital goal," FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski said.
The carriers have committed to provide an automatic "bounce back" text message by June 30, 2013, if text-to-911 is unavailable in their area. The message would tell users to make a voice call to a 911 center until the program is rolled out.

Worn sway bar bushings or sway bar end links may cause a rattling or clunking noise from the front suspension during low-speed driving. Though not always the root cause, front struts are often replaced for this condition.
One or more power windows may stop working due to a failed window motor or regulator. In some cases these items are replaced as a set. If not, diagnoses will be required to determine which is at fault.
Some vehicles may develop a musty odor coming from the HVAC system, Dodge has issued a cleaner/disinfectant and a coating for the evaporator designed to inhibit bacterial growth.

If there's one thing new parents really get competitive about, it's baby's first word. Mom wants the little person she carried for all those months to say "Mama" first. Dad, of course, is working every angle to get kiddo to say "Dada."
I've seen parents sit their baby down and spend a half hour (or more!) trying to coax their name out of the poor kid. I hate to break it to the parents who do that, but you're just making yourself crazy. Your baby is going to drop that first big word -- usually sometime after their first birthday -- and what they say is going to be totally up to them.
Heck, a quick poll of parents showed kids come up with some pretty goofy stuff. So don't fret if your kid said your partner's name first. You could have gotten one of these:
1. My son's first word, or rather words, were "Ready, set, GO!" Whenever he said that, we were in a panic to see what he was throwing or jumping off of!
2. All my kids said "Land Rover" as their first words. Their pronunciation sucked, but that's what they said.
3. My brother's first word was "turtle."
4. Quack, quack.
5. My husband trained our son to say "light" since that was his first word!
6. Banana.
7. My son's first word was duckie.
8. My son's first was go (and he hasn't stopped yet) ...
9. My daughter's first word was shoe.
10. Ball. When both parents are physical ed. teachers, that's what you get.
11. My son's was gecko (while we were in Florida).
12. My daughter first said Newnen (after our cat named Newman).
13. My younger sister didn't utter a first word. She uttered a first sentence. Her first words were "what dat?"
14. My daughter's was "pocketbook" -- I kid you not! And she is the least girly girl you will find.
15. Mine was squirrel, who knows why!
16. My son's was "nasty." Only word he's ever said, but he said it twice!
17. My son's first word was "Noooooo." Not "No" but "Nooooooo!"
Did you manage to get your baby to say your name first or did they come up with something outlandish too?

My little sisters was "I know" :)
Mine was "fuck.
My son's was "Caillou". *sigh*
When my first child was 8 months, we gave her a small piece of licorice. She chewed it, swallowed, looked directly at both my husband and I and said 'more.' We had to laugh about that one for quite some time.
That being said, I feel I need to add something here beause this is one of those things that really bothers me about mothers blogging and being on the internet.
I have had 6 children, all ranging in age from 24 down to 2 (yes, I am 3 months shy of 50 and I have a toddler) and each is different. My first spoke early and she did okay in school, never great. She didn't go onto college. I had another one who didn't really speak till 3 and she is now about to embark on her PhD in chemistry. I have a boy who didn't talk till 4 and he is now in third grade and the teacher says he is far ahead of all the other kids.
What I'm trying to say is not that if your kid speaks late will they be a genius but that each child is different and not to take milestones too literally. I see mothers getting freaked out if their child is 2 and hasn't spoken too many words. They then take them to speech therapists and doctors and label the kid, etc. Seriously, there really isn't a switch in the kid that flips on and if they don't speak by a certain time, then there must be something wrong with your kid and the switch is faulty.
I felt the need to say this because I am seriously getting tired of the sanctimommies who come in and say something is wrong with your child (and I swear I see this in the comments in every article dealing with speech in children on this partiular site) if they're not speaking by the required age and this sets the mother and child up for disappointment and a rough road ahead.
My kids all said mamma first.
Am I bad that I can't remember either of my boys' first words? They are very verbal now, so I guess it doesn't really matter!
My DH's first sentance was "god damn that teddy bear" after he'd dropped it.
my uncle's was "mootse" (sp?) translation: french for "god d@mn"

glmulti: An R Package for Easy Automated Model Selection with (Generalized) Linear Models
AbstractWe introduce glmulti, an R package for automated model selection and multi-model inference with glm and related functions. From a list of explanatory variables, the provided function glmulti builds all possible unique models involving these variables and, optionally, their pairwise interactions. Restrictions can be specified for candidate models, by excluding specific terms, enforcing marginality, or controlling model complexity. Models are fitted with standard R functions like glm. The n best models and their support (e.g., (Q)AIC, (Q)AICc, or BIC) are returned, allowing model selection and multi-model inference through standard R functions. The package is optimized for large candidate sets by avoiding memory limitation, facilitating parallelization and providing, in addition to exhaustive screening, a compiled genetic algorithm method. This article briefly presents the statistical framework and introduces the package, with applications to simulated and real data.

Masterfully written by Chibnall and brilliantly executed by a superb ensemble cast.
Broadchurch manages to be both a finely crafted piece of suspenseful entertainment and also an emotionally resonant examination of grief, loss and moral confusion.
In an embarrassment of riches, this series is littered with numerous quality acting performances. It's just a thing of beauty all the way around.
A dozen characters, played by the inevitably glorious assortment of British actors, crisscross in an astonishingly fluid game of cat's cradle, bringing this small town miraculously to life but never straying too far, or too absurdly, from the narrative through line.
Broadchurch is beautifully crafted: well filmed, well cast, well scored, atmospheric without being a drag. It also has a striking mixture of cruel insight and sentimental warmth that elevates it above cheaper concoctions.
Broadchurch excels at showing the awkward moments between the briskly delivered plot points, and the small details of voice and gesture that define communities in mourning (or guilty panic), and it has the good sense not to overdo anything.... And yet there's something fundamentally unsatisfying about the whole thing, as smart and intricately structured as it is--and it has nothing whatsoever to do with any writing or acting or filmmaking issues, and everything to do with the fact that we've just been to this particular narrative well too many times in 2013.

Positive: 28 out of 35
Mixed: 1 out of 35
Negative: 6 out of 35

@SmartCookie I have kind of done this (it all turned out ok, but he isn't a bad guy--I was just skeptical of my friend's commitment to him, and I was wrong, happily), and also I am divorced and have heard a lot of "oh yeah, um, he was fine but we never really understood what you saw in him?"
My policy is, once there's a ring involved (and often before, depending on the vehemence of the friend) you just shut up and ride that train as far as it goes. I've never wondered why no one stopped me from marrying my mistake, because I probably would not have listened (my mom did try, gently, and I didn't hear it). Although I like @Briony Fields' advice, too, because once I'd been married for a little while I was DESPERATE for someone to give me permission to leave (spoiler, that someone had to be me).

Sobriety Update: Five months as of Wednesday. I'm noticing subtle differences in my body and my mind, as in, I can remember words and conversations and board trains of thought for days at a time. It still sucks not being able to be drunk with my friends (especially at weddings) but I'm stubborn about it now.

Wednesday, May 14, was day three of the Sullivan Cup Best Tank Crew Competition.
The world class competition tests soldiers, marines, and international partners in tank maneuvers, sustainment, and gun skills.
Teams endured several tests including physical training and stress shoots. They also go through offensive and defensive phases.
"This exercise helps determine which crew is the most tactically proficient crew," explains CPT Dan Schmidt, supervising officer of tactical simulation. "They've already done precision gunnery, and they've done individual skills like firing their M4 and M9 sidearm. But this is a better way to see how a crew operates by itself in a tactical environment against a moving, thinking enemy."
The competition is named for retired General Gordan Sullivan. Sullivan served in the Army for than 36 years and was the 32nd chief of staff.

Worldwide, CSR reporting practices in China have a short history, but are drawing rapidly growing attention. To evaluate Chinese enterprises' CSR reports in a comprehensive, objective and scientific manner and encourage more enterprises to prepare and release high-quality CSR reports and promote sound development of Chinese CSR reporting practices, Development Center for Chinese CSR of China WTO Tribune has developed Golden Bee CSR Report Assessment System 2009 ("GBEE-CRAS2009") to position and categorize CSR reports with respect to 18 parameters including structural, technical and object parameters and systematically evaluate and study CSR reports from six perspectives which are structural integrity, reliability of the report, materiality of the content, comparability of performance, report reliability, readability and innovative level of the report.
Commencing from March 2009, the Development Center for Chinese CSR of China WTO Tribune spent eight months on tabulating, categorizing, archiving, assessing and validating CSR reports released from 2001 to 2009 in China, the most comprehensive and systematic inventorying of Chinese CSR reports ever undertaken in the country, which resulted in the Reporting Research (2001-2009).
The Reporting Research is intended to build a professional platform for all interested people worldwide to understand the overall situation of Chinese CSR reporting practices and learn the best CSR reporting practices, to give full play to the professional advantages of CSR research and consulting institutions and help Chinese enterprises improve their capabilities in preparing and publishing CSR reports, and to promote effective communication between enterprises and their stakeholders and realize continuous improvements to the CSR performance of Chinese enterprises.
Main findings:
Finding 1: Rapid growth
Chinese CSR reports are drawing unprecedented attention as evidenced by the fact that 582 CSR reports in various forms were released in 2009, 3.44 times that of 2008 (169 reports), an exploding growth. This figure is expected to account for about 15% of global total in 2009, as opposed to 5% in 2008.
The rapid development of Chinese CSR reporting practices is mainly attributed to the following:
1. Examples of leading enterprises. In recent years, China saw a large number of leading, active corporate players in CSR field, the forerunners and pioneers who drive rapid development of China's CSR reporting practices.
2. Strong guidance of government policy. The Chinese government pays much attention to implementation of corporate social responsibility by enacting a series of policy documents in recent years encouraging enterprises to publish their CSR reports, which have been well echoed by numerous enterprises.
3. Active promotion of social actors. Shanghai Stock Exchange, Shenzhen Stock Exchange, China Federation of Industrial Economics, China National Textile and Apparel Council and China Banking Association, among others, encourage enterprises to release CSR reports by promulgating guidelines.
4. Raised awareness of enterprises. As enterprises develop a deeper understanding of social responsibility and become more willing to actively implement social responsibility, effective communication with stakeholders through publication of CSR reports has become a first choice for more and more Chinese enterprises.
Finding 2: Starting stage
The overall performance of CSR reporting practices in China is low as about half of reports are still at the starting stage and characterized by inadequate disclosure in depth and breadth, low coverage and internationalization level of reported indicators and a certain gap in responding to stakeholder requirements and expectation and embodying the corporate value.
1. About half of reports are still at the starting stage. Of the 541 reports received in 2009, about half are found structurally deficient and very limited in information disclosure, whether in terms of depth or breadth, leading to quite limited communication with stakeholders.
2. Information disclosure is inadequate in both depth and breadth. Disclosure of social performance is relatively good, while disclosure of environmental performance is rather weak, with disclosure of economic performance standing somewhere in between.
3. Low coverage of reported indicators. Most of enterprises give little consideration to the level of information disclosure (must-be-reported, should-be-reported information and to-be-reported voluntarily), with much attention given to disclosure of should-be-reported information and less attention to must-be-reported information and voluntary information disclosure.
4. Chinese CSR reports are below the level of international practice. Only 2.2% of CSR reports under research were prepared in both Chinese and English, 7.8% made reference to Global Reporting Initiative "Sustainability Reporting Guideline "(GRI G3), and 6.1% were verified by independent third-party auditing organizations.
Finding 3: Significant difference
Chinese CSR reports show significant difference whether in terms of distribution of disclosing enterprises or quality of reporting.
1. Quality of reports varies significantly
Level of CSR reporting practice is considerably positively correlated with company size as leading enterprises outperform average companies in CSR reporting practices.
Central state-owned enterprises enjoy a much higher reporting performance than the average level of Chinese CSR reporting practices.
Reporting performance varies significantly from industry to another, with extraction, financial and insurance and power industries holding the leading position.
Growing enterprises and private enterprises indeed published a number of high-quality reports, but most of CSR reports from them await further improvement.
2. A remarkably uneven distribution of reporting enterprises
373 reports were released by enterprises in East China, a figure well above the sum in Central and West China.
377 reports were released by State-owned enterprises (SOEs) or state-holding enterprises, which is 70% of the total reports.
272 reports were released by manufacturing enterprises, a figure exceeding the sum of reports published by all other industrial sectors.
465 reports, or 85.9% of the total, were released by listed companies. And only 14.1% were released by non-listed companies.
Finding 4: Huge potential
Chinese CSR Reporting has a huge potential of development and the number of reports to be published in the next years will rise dramatically, so will the quality of reports, to a level where the value of reports will be fully exploited and reflected.
1. The number of reports will continue rising. In the next years, as Chinese enterprises become more aware of the importance of social responsibility, more and more enterprises will actively release CSR reports.
2. The reporting quality will significantly improve. As the enterprises grow mature, the overall CSR performance of Chinese enterprises will be driven continuously. Enterprises' ability of writing CSR report will be enhanced and the number of enterprises publishing high-quality CSR reports is expected to rise significantly in the next years.
3. The value of reports will be fully reflected. The important role of CSR report as a channel of communication between enterprises and their stakeholders will be appreciated by more and more enterprises. They will also notice the function of CSR report as a business language and be aware of use CSR reports as an important tool to enhance their management and competitiveness.

The idea that they're thinking of making it so we can shift in and out of shadowform to cast holy spells makes me facepalm so hard.
Adding a frost spell doesn't sound like a bad idea but for the love of all that is shadow, don't make us cast holy spells.
I personally think shadow priests are fine in PvE. They could use a small Dps buff, but I don't have any complaints.
PvP however, shadow priests have to be perfect in order to succeed or use a rogue partner. Even then shadow priests are generally lackluster in PvP no matter how good you are.
There were a few parts of the Q @ A where I just wondered if the devs knew what they were talking about but otherwise it seemed fairly intelligent.
Dispersing into a cloud of mist fits a shadow priest, but in it's current form with it's mechanics I think it isn't worth the 51 points and the only reason I take it is because it's right there.

The views in these blogs are those held by the individual blogger and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton Football Club.
About the authorView articles
It's difficult to know where to start really after last week's opening day debacle.
Strange isn't it how you look forward all summer to the new season and the big kick off and within the space of 90 minutes (or 45 even!!!) you can then feel totally deflated, wishing you were back on a beach somewhere in the Med!
To be fair, I didn't think Everton had played too badly in the opening half hour against Arsenal. There was a definite lack of bite in attack but generally there was no vice-like grip on the game from the visitors. The first goal was class though and from then on in it was just awful defending, no communication at the back and a side being drained of confidence as each goal was shipped.
But I have to agree to with David Moyes and state that these are the same players that finished fifth in the Premier League and reached an FA Cup final – they don't become poor players – or a collection of - overnight (or during the course of one summer even!).
Thursday night's European victory did a lot to prove the manager's point. The players responded and delivered when it mattered, although it's fair to say that we were a little lucky in the opening twenty minutes or so. Sigma should have had a penalty and Tim Howard made one excellent save.
Decisions went our way and you could feel the relief inside Goodison once Saha netted the first. From then on in there was only one result really, although even the most optimistic of us wouldn't have put too much money on heading to the Czech Republic with a four-goal lead! Now even the most pessimistic fan won't be worried about the return leg because – and I'm willing to state this - there's no way we'll lose by five. After all they're not Arsenal, are they?
The group stages of the Europa League are all but assured and longer term this can only do the Club the power of good. There are some very good sides in the competition, a number with a decent European pedigree and this will surely benefit our players in terms of gaining valuable European experience. Having said all that, I'd love us to progress on from the group stage. It's a long competition and to win it would be quite an achievement, but one we should be aiming for nevertheless.
Stand out positives from Thursday were obviously Jack Rodwell and Louis Saha. Young Jack does have a great future and he could yet prove to be an influential figure for us this season, never mind years to come.
However, there's no escaping from the fact we need all the fit players we can muster and once again we'll be keeping a careful watch on transfer activity over the next week or so!

New Rio 5 is *all* new by Ignatz Horowitz on 11/01/2011. Trim: 2012 Kia Rio LX 5-Door, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: Looks, the 6-speed stick, handling, fuel efficiency
Cons: Seats are a bit hard, visibility through rear window could be better
Overall review: Kia has completely redesigned the Rio 5 hatchback...it's longer, lower, and wider than previous models, with a new 1.6L GDI engine producing 138 horses, mated to a 6-speed mtx. The interior fit and finish is nice; new toggle switches control A/C and circulation functions; the audio system blends in nicely with the dash. The seats are a bit hard for my liking, and the rear window is narrow, restricting visibility somewhat. Kia stiffened the suspension (very little body roll), improving handling while keeping the ride smooth, and four wheel discs provide adequate stopping power. A multi-function digital display shows odo, A/B trip, time, mpg average, and real-time mpg. I love the electric power steering. Easy in town, at slow speeds, gradually stiffening at higher speeds. Outside, the entire look of the car is vastly improved from last year's Rio. Totally redesigned, with new lights and grillwork. The new Rio 5 should give the competition more than a run for its money. (Reposted)

Josh Holloway is a Dad!
Josh Holloway is sexy as he is! Now, think of this, how much more would he gain on the Sexy-o-meter if he had his own little baby in his arms and was walking topless on the beach at sunrise?!
Josh Holloway is sexy as he is! Now, think of this, how much more would he gain on the Sexy-o-meter if he had his own little baby in his arms and was walking topless on the beach at sunrise?!
Congratulations! Josh Holloway, aka Sawyer from Lost, is going to be a dad!
Josh and his wife Yessica are expecting their first baby next year!
Josh and Yessica have been married since 2004 and are going to become parents in 2009!
Congratulations again!
What's Josh's other news? You know, in terms of Lost Season 5?
Josh is currently in Hawaii, with the rest of the cast and crew of Lost, shooting Season 5.
Lost 5 will return to TV on January 21st and it seems this season is going to be a bigger blast than the previous one! At least that's what I'm hoping for! I Can't Wait!
Josh Holloway has been in hiding as far as i knew ... but it seems he wasn't! He was busy working on a new movie entitled 'Stay Cool'.
'Stay Cool' is a comedy about an author who returns to his hometown to deliver a speech to a class of graduating high school students and has to deal with his feelings for his ex-girlfriend as well as the advances of another student who has the hots for him!
Other stars in the movie are Winona Ryder, Mark Polish, Sean Astin, Chevy Chase and Hilary Duff.
Back to my main reason for this article, Josh! He was spotted on the LA set of the movie sporting a palm-tree-style ponytail and loads of tattoos!
Well, I'm sure I'm not the only one obsessing about Lost and the 1st part of the season finale we saw on Thursday. Any thoughts on that, by the way?!
In all cases, Josh Holloway is going to be the guest on The Ellen Degeneres Show tonight and i can't wait to see what she's got to ask him and what he's got to say!
I wonder if he's going to mention anything about the final two episodes of Lost ...
I just can't keep my mind from thinking about that rumor that Sawyer maybe killed off before the end of this season! Have you heard that one? Argh!That doesn't make any sense to me matie!
Oh! Have you seen the screen cap (above) from the 2nd part of 'There's no place like home'?
I'll sure be waiting for that Kate/Sawyer kiss!
Any thoughts on 'There's no place like home'?
I am glad to let you know that Lost will finally be back on January 31st ... ooof! It's been a long wait!
One more month and we'll be reunited with the remaining survivors of flight 815 ...
Yesterday, one of those survivors, was spotted at LAX airport!
Josh Holloway and his tiny wife Yessica Kumala, were spotted at LAX airport yesterday as they departed to an unknown destination ... maybe Hawaii?
Well, here are a few photos of Josh at LAX airport ... Enjoy!
Lost - Season 4 Promo is out and it's great! We finally get to see who is coming to the island! It seems there's actually some people coming to rescue the losties ... or are they coming for another purpose?
Watch the new and extended trailer here.
What better way to market a product, than to feature a famous, hot star for the ad campaign?
'Lost' actor Josh 'Sawyer' Holloway is going to be the new face of Davidoff Cool Water this summer.
The ad will hit screens & magazines everywhere in the world in July, except in North America! That's strange! Some other famous hunk will be on the ads in the US.
The ads were shot with Holloway in Hawaii, with the ocean as the background.
According to Women's Wear Daily, Josh says: "The water in Hawaii is phenomenal; on a daily basis, it can bring tears to your eyes with its clarity and color."
Didn't they say that there wasn't going to be sequel after X-Men 3? Wasn't there supposed to be a movie about Wolverine instead?
Just yesterday, i read something about another X-Men movie, confirming the speculation over whether another sequel to the gigantic movie of 2006 would be made.
This time, Josh Holloway is going to get into the super hero mode & put on the tights & cape to become 'Gambit'.
Josh expressed his excitement over the project & said: ...
I told you I'd write about 'Sawyer' & here it is!
So, who is Josh Holloway? You definitely know him as 'Sawyer' on Lost ... but do you know more?
Josh Holloway is an American actor, who started his career not in acting, but in modeling. He's a perfect guy for it!
He made appearances in many series, like Good Girls Don't, NCIS, Walker, Texas Ranger, CSI & Angel! -Watch Josh in Angel-
But, Josh is best known for his role in Lost, as James 'Sawyer' Ford. Lost is what pushed Holloway to celebrity status, but unfortunately left him with no time for other big roles!

Groomsmen Confess: 7 Reasons Not to Worry About His Bachelor Party
1. Turns Out the Fantasies He Lives Out Are G-Rated
"My friends and I are huge football fans, but most of us never had the chance to play in full pads, so we surprised the groom-to-be with helmets, shoulder pads — the whole deal. The best part was we set up a camera to tape the whole thing. Needless to say, the groom flipped."
—Chris, 25, New York City
2. Not All Men Love Strippers
"I am not a prude at all, and I like looking at beautiful women as much as the next man, but to me, strippers are not sexy. I am not the only person I know who feels this way, so if the guys want to hit the club, we'll tell them to meet us later at the casino."
—Harold, 34, Washington, D.C.
3. Some Guys Would Rather Party With Their Bride-to-Be
"My bachelor party will be a joint party with the woman I am searching to find. We'll gather friends, go to dinner and get smashed together at an Irish pub."
—Marco, 32, New York City
4. He Gets a Chance to Goof Off and Stay Out Late
"What really happened at my friend Tom's bachelor party? Dinner, drinking and then Ultimate Frisbee in the parking lot — all at 3 A.M."

5. Not Every Guy Is Tiger Woods
"If women have a good and honest guy, then they have no reason to worry in any situation. If they don't, then they should worry about more than Dave's big bachelor party. A cheater doesn't need to wait for a bachelor party to cheat."
—Joey, 27, Chicago
6. He Just Wants to Relax With Friends
"A bunch of us stayed at a resort in Jamaica for several days, just hanging out by the beach, eating like pigs and simply having a good time among friends, away from the hustle and bustle of the city."
—Mick, 29, New York City
7. Most of the Stories You've Heard Are Tall Tales
"I've heard of legends of bachelor parties that sound awesome, but I am still waiting for one to come along. I've been to a few, and they were pretty tame and pretty standard: steak house, strip club, too many shots and puking."
—Alan, 30, Crystal Lake, Ill.

Most people probably never think about a hospital losing power, but there's a lot more people thinking about it now.
When a New York City hospital was left in the dark because its generators didn't work we wanted to know what if something like that happened here.
With the important things going on in a hospital, Grady Memorial Hospital administrators said they're always thinking about their disaster plan.
Dr. Leon Haley with Grady Memorial said they test and check things on a monthly basis, particularly their multiple generators.
"We have them scattered throughout the hospital in different locations so you may take out one generator in a disaster, but not all. We test those on a regular basis," said Haley.
But the equipment isn't the only thing that gets tested. The staff gets it too through live disaster drills that change periodically and Haley said it's not just a walk through with each other.
"We practice with real patients at times. We get actors to come in and try to simulate everything possible that could happen," Haley said.
Outside of Grady Memorial, the nearby hospital should be just as prepared because Grady is the Regional Coordinating Hospital, meaning they're in charge of 40 other facilities so they all go through the same tests and checks.

Style: Dampfbier
Local Option Dampf Loc is an all-barley warm fermented ale brewed by the folks from Chicago's Local Option; inspired by "Dampfbier" originally crafted by medieval peasant inhabitants of the Bavarian Forest. During the fermentation process generous amounts of foam and surface bubbles burst in the tank, giving the illusion that the ferment is boiling or "steaming." Tony Russomanno and Noah Hopkins took it upon themselves to brew Dampf Loc as a modern interpretation of its Teutonic predecessor, creating a "Hefe Gerste" ale that is true to its roots; unmistakable in character yet accessible to beer drinkers of all palates.
Dampf Loc has a mild hop profile, medium body with pleasant effervescence and a clear, rich, orange hue. Dampf Loc is ideal for warm months, yet enjoyable year round.

Carry Me Across the Waterby Ethan Canin
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Breathtaking in its suspense and beauty, Carry Me Across the Water is the story of a man's turbulent journey, with his family, through the central years of the twentieth century. Young August Kleinman escapes from Nazi Germany to America, where his mother's words — "Take the advice of no one" — fate him to a life of boldness and originality, from the poor streets of New York to the marble mansions of industrial Pittsburgh, from old world Hamburg to the jungle islands of the Pacific. Ultimately, near the end of a long and bountiful life, his resolution of a haunting encounter with a Japanese soldier during World War Two finally illuminates, at the deepest levels, the way authentic lives truly unfold. From the writer hailed as "the most mature and accomplished novelist of his generation" (Alan Cheuse, National Public Radio) comes this ";exquisitely modulated short novel" (Los Angeles Times), which "eases its silky-smooth way into a reader's consciousness even as it plumbs the depths" (Newsday).
"Carry Me Across the Water reconfirms Canin's stature as one of the best fiction writers of his generation." The Miami Herald
"The most wise and beautiful novel of 2001." Daily Telegraph
"A daring and heartbreaking success." The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
"It's [a] testament to Canin's mastery that he's able to encompass the largest possible themes — life and death, war and peace, mortality and transcendence — with such elliptical precision....The novel represents such a powerfully transformative experience — for protagonist and reader alike." Chicago Sun-Times
"A hypnotic, intricately structured, elegiac novel." L.A. Weekly
In this lyrical portrait of the human condition, a young boy escapes Nazi Germany and goes on to build a fortune, a family, and life on his own terms in America.
About the Author
Ethan Canin is the author of For Kings and Planets, The Palace Thief, Blue River, and Emperor of Air. He is a graduate of Harvard Medical School and on the faculty of the University of Iowa's Workshop. He lives in California and Iowa.

One man is dead after officials say he fell off of a truck bed.
A Lee County school spent the day planting dozens of trees near their playground.
Twin Oaks Elementary received a five thousand dollar grant from the Georgia Forestry Commission.
It's part of their environmental project called "Making the Shade". They planted about 40 trees around the campus.
"It is a lot like what we do in the classroom everyday, the benefits of ht we are doing today probably wont be seen for 10 or 20 years, just like the learning that the kids see, there is a mini reward but there is a long term benefit from education so we get to put that in action by planting trees that help kids that have asthma, research shows that it helps kids that have ADHD and it also make a cleaner environment and a more esthetic pleasing environment," says Dr. Jason Miller, Twin Oakes Elementary School Principal.
Students, parents, and teachers all gave a helping hand to get the trees planted.

Transfeminism believes that we construct our own gender identities based on what feels genuine, comfortable, and sincere to us as we live and relate to others within given social and cultural constraints. This holds true for those whose gender identity is in congruence with their birth sex, as well as for trans people. Our demand for recognition and respect shall in no way be weakened by this acknowledgment. Instead of justifying our existence through reverse essentialism, transfeminism dismantles the assumption that sex and gender 'naturally' cohere"
Emi Koyama, "The Transfeminist Manifesto" (via suzyxisntreal) (via graftversushost)
this is pretty fantastic!

Yesterday, was a pretty full day. We went over to Los Gorditos for vegan Mexican food, where I swear I had the best vegan tacos of my life. In fact it has to be said: Portland's Mexican food sort of rivals San Diego Mexican food…which usually wins me over. So shortly after eating lunch we wandered over to the little shops up the hill on Division St. We found all these rad food pods of great trucks; ice cream, bakery, tacos, grilled fish + meats…you name it it was there.
I've come to the conclusion that the hippest graphic designers and fellow typography enthusiasts all live in this town. Everywhere we go, all the shops, the stores, restaurants, food trucks etc….all have great "branding" with super hip logos and signs.
We stumbled upon the Salt & Straw ice cream cart which was incredible. Though right after tacos, it pretty much did us in until the evening…. when we went to karaoke! We literally closed the house down. I haven't stayed out that late in a long time, it was fun to rock. I co-sang 'Shoop'. Good times.

there comes a time in life when we no longer care for nor feel the spite. we learn to feel numb and move on. i feel that day to day. the feel of morphine moving through your body, clouding even your mind. and as this happens, we feel not the deadend weight, but the chains of mockery and hate pull us down. sorrow floods our veins, and before we know it we are completely alone, with no hand-holds.
then there is a shift, and maybe this happens at a strange time, maybe not. the feel of happiness will be almost tangible! the tears will wipe from your eyes, and you will nod unto your captors that you accept this life. However you wonder, what is the price? no gold, no money, not even property will give you a prize this great. No, nothing but everything will pay this debt.
Your family, friends, grades, your standings, the clues will all faultier at the hand of this most honourable prize. tell if you can, what does this mean. what is this "prize" you cannot forsake? No one can tell you, you must know your self. the substance of your dreams, the love in which you partake. A fantasy you imagine, your own perfect world, where you can be the center, the out ward, the in.
Now all of the "haters" must think of this: if your dream is redemption, your world shall be bliss. to all of the lovers i only say this: if your dream is to be loved, it starts with a kiss. And to all of you people who wait by the sides, who wish to be seen, without battle scares, the show light awaits.
You wonder now, what is this place, full of different worlds, fantasy, a place you create. I will tell you now, what the key is to this place, so all of your dreams will some day take flights.
It starts with a paper, a pen in the hand, & an imagination wound so tight, ready to spin.
