Harsh Realities Aren't Whitewashed in Artsy Kisses
- Monday, August 02, 2010
Still, Kisses won't sit well with everyone. With plenty of coarse language (a trademark of the rough and tumble Irish culture) and disturbing plotlines involving abuse, Kisses probably won't be many Christian moviegoers' preferred medium for that always-relevant reminder. And truth be told, it's not a mindless story that's easily enjoyed with a great big ol' bucket of popcorn either.
But for anyone who wants an up-close-and-personal look at what life is probably like for runaways in Ireland's not-so-glamorous neighborhoods, Kisses is a compelling film that doesn't whitewash these troubling realities.
Drugs/Alcohol: Dylan's father is an abusive alcoholic who spends the bulk of his days drinking and acting violent as a result.
Language/Profanity: Repeated uses of the "f" word uttered in an Irish brogue (several instances from the young protagonists themselves), plus a smattering of other profanity.
Sex/Nudity: Kylie's peers inquire whether (or not) she and Dylan have had sex yet. They crudely encourage Dylan to take advantage of her in a variety of different sexual capacities (oral and otherwise). We learn that Kylie's uncle (who is in his early thirties) has forced Kylie to perform oral sex on him (he says that no one would ever believe her if she reported it). After leaving home, Kylie and Dylan get on a man's shipping boat, and the much older man inappropriately swats Kylie on the backside, even though we're supposed to take away a playful spirit from the exchange. Nonetheless, it's still creepy. At one point, Kylie is kidnapped by the Sack Man and a friend and almost raped (Dylan comes to her rescue). After escaping from her captive, she and Dylan run through several people's flats, and eventually, into a topless bar where several women's breasts are in full view. Toward, the end of the movie Kylie and Dylan vow to always be there for each other and kiss in an awkward, pre-teen way.
Violence: Dylan's dad not only hits his mother, but Dylan himself. In retaliation, Dylan hurls an object at his father's head, leaving a substantial gash. After leaving home, Dylan and Kylie's lives are threatened on multiple occasions, and both are beat up physically and emotionally. Later on, they discover the corpse of a young man among the garbage heap they slept in one night.
Religion: Dylan believes God and Satan are as imaginary as Santa Claus. After the long journey away from—and back to—his abusive home, Kylie surmises that "There is no devil. Just people."

So I got a deal in the mail to get an upgrade to [50/25] Mbps Internet (I currently have [15/5]...when I was reviewing it on line this message came up...
Verizon will provide up to [50/25] Mbps Internet with a wired connection. If you use your Internet primarily for wireless or WiFi connections, you have the option to upgrade to Verizon's new FiOS GigE Wireless N Router which will maximize your speed delivered through your wireless connection.
Upon completion of your order, you'll be provided with information for purchasing a router at Verizon's online equipment and accessories store.
I am VERY interested in getting super fast internet...my current internet is really good but it wouldnt hurt to bump it up. I have several devices using internet in the home...most of them wireless (including my PS3). I currently use a Verizon Actiontec router.
So here is my question...do I really need to get the above router to take advantage of that [50/25]? Also one other thing...My house is fairly large and I would really like to have two routers...is it possible to use two routers or a setup to have one upstairs and another downstairs?
Thanks in advance for the answers!
Up until I went to Quantum FIOS, 75/35 I used the normal actiontec router with no issues.
Upon moving to the quantum speed, I got the gigE router and did notice that when I sit on the couch downstairs (my modem is upstairs in the farthest location possible from my couch) I went from around 20-25 MBps to 65MBps on my tablet.
Thanks. Any thoughts on having multiple routers? Or here is another question...if I wanted to have my router in the same place as one of our TV's can I use a splitter to split the coax and feed one into the DVR and the other into the router? Can that be done with fios?
I would really like to get my PS3 off wireless and make it wired without running CAT-5 through my house.

I have many thoughts on multiple routers. It's a very common topic in the forums. Ask a specific question and I or others will try to provide helpful information.

Yes, this works. You'll need a "FiOS-capable" splitter which means a bidirectional unit with a frequency range of at least 5 to 1000 MHZ. Here's a link to a related discussion:

You can do this easily with the splitter arrangement discussed above. In fact the link I gave specifically mentions gaming consoles, although the user in that instance is setting up a MoCA adapter instead of a router. The two are closely related, but of course different in design. Good luck with your setup.
Does anyone know if the range of the new router is any greater than that of the old ActionTec M1424WR model? I'm considering buying an extender, but the cost is almost the same as a new router and all I need is another 10 feet of range.
There are a lot of variables that affect wireless range.
Walls, interference, other networks in the area, etc.
You don't indicate which older Actiontec you have.
Wireless capabilities also vary by Actiontec hardware revision (A,C,D,E,F,G,I).
In general, wireless range for 802.11n is somewhat less than 802.11g, even though the bandwidth is higher.
This is especially true on the 5Ghz band (which the latest Actiontec doesn;t support).
If you only need another 10 feet, you could try moving the router, or replacing the antenna with a high gain antenna.
Thanks! Good info. Guess I'll try a high gain antenna, since that seems like the least costly options. I've got an ActionTec MI424-WR Rev. A router. At least that's what the Router status screen tells me.

The Nationals are planning to give Stephen Strasburg one additional start this season after he pitches Friday, Manager Davey Johnson said. Johnson had wanted to let Strasburg pitch in Florida on Wednesday, the final day of the regular season. He spoke with General Manager Mike Rizzo, who also thought Strasburg would benefit from making a fifth start in his return from Tommy John surgery.
The weather could halt those plans, though. Rain is in the forecast for Friday night, and if that game gets pushed back Strasburg would not be able to get his full four days of rest before the season finale. The Nationals, obviously, will not let Strasburg pitch on short rest.
Johnson also confirmed that Ivan Rodriguez will catch the final game of this season, as reported yesterday.

Most women consider the wedding dress and the wedding cake to be two of the most important items of a matrimonial celebration. What happens when the two are combined in one?
Your eyes do not deceive you: This is, in fact, a bridal gown with a full skirt made of cake!
Are you as ecstatic as I am about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows opening this weekend? I've got the perfect way to celebrate:
I'm loving these creative Double Double Chocolate Cauldron Cupcakes. Sugarbear from Bakingdom re-created them after sampling the cauldron cake at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando (jealous!).
Baking disasters happen to the best of us. But the true test of a talented baker is if you turn a mess into a masterpiece.
Check out what happened to some crumbly, falling-apart vegan chocolate cupcakes from Not a Rabbit.
They became Storm in a Tea Cup (cakes)! I'd be lying if I said I could look away.
The last thing I need is something that makes it easier to eat cake on the go. But that's exactly the idea behind these adorable CakeShooters from Sprinkles Custom Cakes cakery.
Cake and icing are layered in a plastic push-up contraption. Remember the Push-Up Pop frozen treats from when you were a kid? This is a similar idea.
Check out the six amazing flavors ...
Is there anything more brilliant than this Candy Bar Cheesecake from Natalie's Killer Cuisine? I'm having a fantasy involving it and a fork ...
Ripe, fresh watermelon is typically the perfect ending to a summer picnic in the great outdoors. And, watermelon cake is even more special ...
On the surface this looks like your typical festive July 4th cake. Uncle Sam profile? Check. Patriotic message? Check. Red, white, and blue frosting? Check, check, check.
But don't be fooled: This isn't your average Independence Day dessert. There's a really fun surprise inside ...
Photo by DailyPoeticsYou are well aware of my obsession with rainbow foods and this rainbow cake -- by Kariann Burleson, who writes the blog Daily Poetics -- is no exception! Have you ever seen so many colors in a cake?
She baked the cakes in mini-loaf pans, cut the tops off, spread frosting in between the layers, and covered the whole thing in fondant. Amazing.
Flickr photo from DebbieDoesCakes
Even vegetarians can enjoy this mouthwatering grilled T-Bone Steak -- that's because it's actually a cake!
Debbie Does Cakes is the talented cake artist behind this meaty masterpiece. I encourage you to check out her site: All her food cakes are this realistic.
Photo from Pink Cake Box
I don't know how this five-tiered Dr. Seuss Topsy Turvy Cake doesn't topple over; but I do know that I'm totally over-the-top enthralled by it. Pink Cake Box made it for a girl celebrating her Bat Mitzvah and guess what her name is ...

My mom is Korean and she always made her own gojujang and I would love to see how to do this. I know that she used a pound of miso, corn syrup, salt and soy sauce and she would grind up crackers or breadcrumbs and red pepper powder but she never measured anything so I really don't have much to go on. She is now 75 and frail and can no longer make it. I learn by watching. I love these you tube videos! Sincerely, Lee

See what cute and creepy treats our Pinterest followers are loving for a ghostly Halloween!
Attend a show for a fun and unique night out where you can learn new skills and make memories that'll last a lifetime!
Perfect dinners in a pinch with 316 quick-and-easy recipes!
You want the best for your kids, and part of that means looking out for their health. Try these no-fuss ideas to add some healthy habits every day.
Set an example. You are your child's best role model. Demonstrate how to live a healthy lifestyle by making smart food choices and staying active. Your kids are more likely to follow you.
Try and try again. Does your child refuse to eat certain fruits or veggies? Introduce them in new ways to see if you can win over their taste buds. Mix them in with other foods they love. It just might do the trick.
Limit couch time. Encourage kids to head outdoors to play tag, jump rope, ride bikes, walk the dog and try other fun activities. If you notice a sport they enjoy, sign them up for a recreation league or encourage them to try out for their school's team.
Plan family activities. Schedule family hikes, a trip to the beach or a day biking on trails. Even a quick walk around the neighborhood after dinner is a great way to exercise together. Let each member of the family select a fitness class to try, whether it's yoga, swimming or dance, and experience it together.
Stick with it. Your child might fight an initial change to their routine, like scheduling in outdoor playtime instead of T.V. time, but keep it up. Within two to three weeks, they'll adapt and be more accepting of the new schedule.

OTA Verifier
10,000 - 50,000 downloadsAdd this app to your lists
+ By scary alien
So, I decided to try to write an app that would help folks figure-out what the issues might be so that they can get their OTA update installed.
The OTA Verifier app can be used to evaluate an over-the-air (OTA) update.zip or other flashable .zip file before you attempt the install or afterwards to help you figure-out why the installation may have failed. OTA Verifier will point-out what files and conditions are being tested so that you can more easily attempt to correct these issues.
Q: Do I have to be rooted to use this?
A: No, but rooted devices will have more conditions that the app will be able to test/evalute because it will have access to protected files that non-rooted devices don't.
Q: Will the app actually do the installation or change anything on my device?
A: No. The app will only evaluate the expressions and conditions contained inside the updater-script file inside the .zip file that's trying to be installed. None of the functions or commands that try to modify your device (i.e., delete/patch/format/extract, etc.) will be evaluated or executed. The app basically operates in "read-only" mode with respect to the .zip file being evaluated.
Q: Will this app work on older devices or flashable .zip files that use the amend update-script files?
A: No, this app evaluates and interprets the newer edify updater-script files (notice the "r" in "updater").
How do I use this app?
1. Install and launch the app
2. Click the "Select File" button and navigate to desired .zip file
3. Long-press (press and hold) the file entry for the desired .zip file
4. Click the "Verify OTA .zip" file pop-up
5. Wait for the app to process the file (should take under a minute, depending on your device)
6. View the displayed results (text will also be copied to the clipboard)
Miscellaneous info:
1. Savvy root users probably already know that after a failed .zip file installation, you should be able to view the /cache/recovery/last_log file to view the information about what might have failed. OTA Verifier will try to uncover all of the issues and not just the first one that causes the installation to fail.
2. While I wrote this app principally to evaluate OTA update.zip files, the edify updater-script files are used and written by ROM devs and others who created flashable .zip files. This app can be used to evaluate those file's updater-script files, too.
How does this all work?
Here's the basic outline/structure of what the app does:
1. the .zip file is selected by the user via the file selector
2. the updater-script file is extracted from the META-INF/com/google/android folder in the .zip file
3. this updater-script file is parsed and converted into reverse polish notation (RPN) for execution
4. edify functions that might modify your device are NOT evaluated
5. note: the update-binary executable is not used by or involved in this app; the edify script interpreter that the app uses was written by me, in Java, specifically for this app
6. the remaining edify script functions that test conditions are evaluated using an operand/operator stack from the RPN expression parsed from the updater-script statements
7. expressions that fail (return a null-string) or are bypassed (usually because a resource (file/partition) is protected/secured against read-access) are reported for the user
8. after the entire script has been processed, the results are displayed in a pop-up window on the device and the text of those results are copied to the clipboard
Questions? Contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com
Keywords: OTA, over-the-air update, updater-script, edify, amend, update-binary

[version 2.3 - 10-June-2014]:

Works great saved my root after a ota update thanks.

Worked without fail on my Droid4. Much quicker than trying to do the OTA update and checking the failure logs.

Does exactly what it should, pointing out the problems that prevent you from performing OTA update. Highly recommended.

At a time when Google is pushing ahead with actively using personalized data to improve search results, Yahoo is banking on our fears that search engines know too much about us already.
Under Yahoo's new policy, the company will strip out portions of users' IP addresses, alter small tracking files known as "cookies" and delete other potential personally identifiable information after 90 days in most cases. In cases involving fraud and data security, the company will anonymize the data after six months.
Sunnyvale, Calif.-based Yahoo also said it will expand the scope of data that it anonymizes to encompass not only search engine logs, but also page views, page clicks, ad views and ad clicks. That information is used to personalize online content and advertising.
Google has been reluctant to make a similar move, claiming that it needs at least 9 months worth of data–in order to keep improving its search results.
Here's what I'd like to hear from you. Are you really that worried about the data kept by the search engines? For me, I'm not exactly buzzing with excitement over this announcement. Now, if Yahoo were to allow me to export all of my data, that would be a cool move.

It was a bit cloudy, but I worked up a sweat climbing the hills across the river from Dalyan proper. It used to be surprisingly quite there, everyone being on the beach. But I think they redid a road in the back, so it's a bit more accessible now. All pictures by the way were made on Kodachrome, which gives a nasty blue (Blaustich) in shadows. I hope to later do a bit more Photoshopping on this picture to bring out some more detail. Sorry about occassional dust, these are from slides and I have not figured out the "healing brush" quite.

2. Giovani Bernard. Yes, another easy choice here. However, we've all heard about how quick Bernard is and how electric he could be. If you watched him in North Carolina, you know he is a home run threat every time he touches the ball. He will also be seeing some time with the first and second team, so it will be interesting to see if he stays on his feet after making contact; something analysts have questioned about him. Bernard could also see some time as a kick or punt returner.
3. Dre Kirkpatrick. The Bengals 1st round pick in 2012 has not been on the field much because of injuries, so this now is definitely the time to watch him. By all accounts, Kirkpatrick has been having a stellar camp and looks to continue that trend against Atlanta. While we haven't seen much of Kirkpatrick, tonight could be the beginning steps of him finally being a starter. He will most likely see plenty of playing time tonight. Kirkpatrick has a chance to prove that has been having a great camp against good competition.

my personal best sit-com situation is going with my date from Thursday night-Friday morning to a party put on by my Friday night'-Saturday morning date's company party on Saturday night. Miss Friday night was not supposed to be at her own company's party because she had 'Other Plans.'
Mr. Other Plans changed his mind and did not show up until Sunday, after the party. So Miss Friday night-Saturday morning goes alone to her company party. Miss Friday night made a scene, which she was sure Mr. Other Plans would hear about. He did. miss Thursday night seemed miffed at first, but later told me she wanted to add to the drama. she was cool about the whole situation and thought it was hilarious.
Mr. Other Plans found out about Friday night-Saturday morning until 7:00 a.m. and decided he needed to step up to the plate, play less golf, fish less, hunt less, gamble less and take care of business between the sheets, which he had been putting off. Miss Friday night became Mrs. Other Plans six-eight weeks later.
my divorce papers were signed six months later, after a twelve month wait for them. My ex was in a hurry for divorce until she heard rumors i had been spotted at places not my own at six in the morning three months after she filed. in month four, i was the one in a hurry for the divorce.
Miss Thursday night/Saturday night and i became best friends (with off and on benefits) over the next several years until we both got into stable relationships.
of course, all the gory details of this and other 'miss' adventures will be included in one of two books i am presently writing.
i promise to use proper capitalization, punctuation, etc. in the books, but soweganese spellin' and pronunciation will abound.

33. Shanghai Meicang Art District
Program: Museum, galleries, retail, event space, park
Status: Concept Design 2011
Shanghai encapsulates the essence of glamor, refinement and modernity. The sound of the Paris of the Orient generic cialis uk resonates in this proposal for the Meicang site. It brings together local history, optimism and an essential emergent style in an elemental, sophisticated, and site-specific design strategy.
The four distinct existing structures – the silo building, the corridor structure, the Japanese villa and the No. 2 building – will be unified through a language of modernist abstraction.
Each building is examined on its own merits. The design enhances the essential qualities of each respective building. Through material and sheen, abstract detailing and programmatic intervention, the buildings come together as a relational network, unified in style.
The remarkable structure of the industrial silo building supports shimmering new cladding for the art museum. It stands as the central jewel on the grounds, reflecting the magnificent view of the Shanghai waterfront. A light-filled kaleidoscopic journey along the corridor structure is created on the upper level of the original structure. Underneath, one finds a shaded landscape of retail, cafes and outside seating.

The Big 3 Showing Signs Of Hope
Since the large government bailout was given to the Big 3, not much has been heard from them, until now. One of America's largest automakers reported that cost cutting and effective advertising are improving their financial situation.
The news is a rare sign of hope for the Big 3, a group that only a few months ago many investors expected to fail.
Alternative Energy Sources
With many companies working on real alternative energy sources worldwide, the dream of fueling our lives with something other than oil is closer than we may think.
The technology for harnessing mainstream alternative energy sources already exists, now all that's left to do is establish the infrastructure. With "going green" the new trend in most industrialized nations including the United States, this could happen within the next 10 years.

text: Tonight's post is for all the Cinderellas in the world! Boys don't often admit it, but just like girls would enjoy being swept off their feet by a prince, most boys would like to find a princess to do this for. This song realizes that impulse with a modern re-telling of the Cinderella story. It follows the classic story arch of unjust oppression/triumphant reward. I dedicate this song to these blogs with great Disney and princess content: deepdisneyconfessions, walter-disney, the-disney-difference, fuckyeahdisneyfanart, letterstodisney, disneyslove, and beliveindisneyforever. Cinderella, I Can Be Your FellaWhen the clock struck midnight,you ran out the door.You were in such a hurry,you left your coat at the bar.It wasn't 'til thenI realized you came alone,and the key to finding youmight be that coat.Oh, Cinderella,I can be your fella,I can be your man.We can run awaytogether, my queen,just take my hand.Well, we danced for hours,and I bought you a drink,and you told meyou were paying your way,living as a maidwith the ungrateful and rich,and you have an itchto just run away.CHORUSI remember your laugh,and I remember your walk,but I don't rememberwhere you said you're from.So I'm gonna take your coatto every big house in town,and ask for the girlthat cleans the rooms. Fans of this tune might like to know that this song will be a part of a larger album concept, which includes songs for Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and this one for Cinderella. Just send me a message if you'd like a heads up when the digital album is released. Oh, and this is the first project on CI to feature the banjo, played by Elijah Cash. Eli crashed at my place last week after a night of heavy drinking and gambling. He was missing his shirt—which he lost on a dice roll—but had this banjo—which he won on a dice roll. Now we all profit from his winnings. Enjoy! — K.C.2 years ago / 48 notes

We carry First Communion Dresses in Plus Sizes too! First Communion Dresses in Silk and Satin. First Communion Dress in many styles, materials and sizes. We ship Communion Dresses to many international countries. Don't hesitate to contact us with questions or comments. We're here to help you find the perfect dress!

We want to help you find the perfect dress. We also carry a variety of short jackets to add to the outfit.
First Communion dresses are made of white fabric to remind us of our baptism. The color of a First Communion dress symbolizes the purity of the soul which has been prepared to receive Jesus. The First Communion dress should be simple, yet elegant. It is NOT a bridal gown; it shouldn't be "sexy" and it doesn't have to cost a fortune. Rather, it is a dress worn in honor of the "King of Kings, our Lord." The First Communion veil, headpiece, or head covering is a symbol of humility. The true beauty is in the soul…while the dress is a reflection of the desire to show respect for our Lord and Savior. We long to receive our Lord; "Like the deer that yearns for the running stream…" Psalm 42.
It is our hope that this day will be especially memorable and meaningful…with a bit of help from the Catholic Faith Store!

TORONTO -- Two more Canadians have been added to the UFC 161 card in Winnipeg on June 15.
Lightweight Mitch (Danger Zone) Clarke of Saskatoon (9-2) has been matched with England's John (The One) Maguire (18-5). Maguire is a former welterweight who, like Clarke, has lost his last two UFC fights.
And light-heavyweight Ryan (Big Deal) Jimmo of Edmonton by way of Saint John, N.B., will face Croatian Igor Pokrajac. Jimmo (17-2) is coming off a loss to James Te Huna after making short work of Anthony Perosh.
The previously announced main event sees Renan Barao (32-1 with on no contest) defend his interim bantamweight title against Eddie Wineland (20-8-1).
Other bouts include light-heavyweights Mauricio (Shogun) Rua against Antonio Rogerio Nogueira and Rashad Evans versus Dan Henderson.
Other Canadians on the MTS Centre card include welterweight Sean Pierson and lightweight Sam (Hands of Stone) Stout.

Although not for a special occasion, this is a wonderful pie. My unintended deviation from the recipe was to use Raspberry Preserves with seeds because seedless was not available. I did make my own crust because I prefer that over the commercially produced. Still it is a simple, attractive desert you can make ahead and it is rich enough to reduce your serving size. This goes into our desert rotation.
Raspberry-Lemonade Pie

Pumpkina Posted: 01/27/09
I made this pie with very high expecations. I followed the recipe, but it turned out terrible. The flavor and the consistency were unpleasant. I made it for a group of friends and the pie was barely touched.

Osteonecrosis of the Jaw
Thousands of patients taking the osteoporosis medication Fosamax have allegedly developed a serious condition known as osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) that led them to seek compensation from drugmaker Merck & Co. through a lawsuit. In the paragraphs below more information about Fosamax and ONJ is provided, including what steps to take if you believe Merck is responsible for causing your jawbone injury.
What is Osteonecrosis of the Jaw?
Osteonecrosis of the jaw (literally "jaw bone death") is a rare dental condition marked by lesions in the gum over the maxilla (upper jaw) or mandible (lower jaw) that don't heal even after appropriate treatment. Jaw bone affected by ONJ does not receive an adequate supply of blood and as a result weakens and can eventually die. Deterioration of the jaw bone is often accompanied by pain or numbness (read about other ONJ symptoms).
What Causes ONJ?
While the exact cause of ONJ is uncertain, the disease does have several known risk factors. Both tobacco and alcohol can contribute to ONJ and their use should be accordingly moderated. Osteonecrosis is also more likely to occur after dental extractions or other surgeries, and practicing good oral hygiene after an invasive dental procedure can reduce the risk of developing ONJ. There is furthermore evidence that suggests bisphosphonates, a type of bone-building drug commonly taken by those suffering from or at risk for osteoporosis, are associated with ONJ.
Bisphosphonates and ONJ
Bisphosphonates such as Fosamax help maintain bone density by slowing down the process by which old bone is broken down. It has been theorized that the drugs contribute to ONJ by disrupting the body's natural healing process, but the exact association between the bone disease and bisphosphonates is not fully understood.
Nonetheless, there is a large body of scientific evidence that shows an association between bisphosphonates and ONJ. The most recent study to explore the topic found that 83% of ONJ sufferers had used bisphosphonates, an elevated risk that researchers say suggests a causal link.
Thousands of Fosamax Users Suing Merck
Fosamax is one of the bisphosphonates believed to cause jaw bone necrosis. Responding to a strong increase in the number of Fosamax ONJ lawsuits filed against Merck, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (JPML) designated in August 2006 MDL (multidistrict litigation) status for the cases. The federal mass tort currently contains approximately 1,000 claims against Merck. Five initial Fosamax lawsuits have gone to trial, with Merck winning four of them. In a fifth case, however, the jury decided in favor of a $1.5 million plaintiff reward.
In addition to the federal MDL against Merck, the company faces Fosamax-related ONJ cases in New Jersey Superior Court as part of a mass tort with more than 1,700 claims (some related to the alleged ability of Fosamax to cause femur fractures). Merck has won the first two New Jersey state-court ONJ cases to be tried.
Additional state and federal Fosamax ONJ lawsuits are scheduled for trial in 2012.
Schedule a Free Lawsuit Review with RLG
If you or someone you know developed ONJ while taking Fosamax, submit the details of your case to the Rottenstein Law Group to receive a complimentary case evaluation. Whether or not Merck agrees to a settlement, you'll need experienced representation to ensure that you receive compensation commensurate with your losses.

Tina Maze, Dominique Gisin share women's downhill gold medal
Sochi, Russian Federation (4E Sports) – Slovenian speedster Tina Maze and Dominique Gisin of Switzerland made history Wednesday when they finished in a dead heat for the gold medal in the women's downhill event of the Sochi Winter Games.
With Maze and Gisin submitting identical times of 1 minute, 41.57 seconds, this marked the first time that an Olympic alpine ski race had ended in a dead heat for the gold medal.
Gisin and Maze were given gold medals while Switzerland's Lara Gut took the bronze medal after finishing just 0.10 seconds back.
"She was ahead of me (on the early splits)," Gisin said of Maze. "I knew it was going to be close. When I saw it was a tie, I thought, 'That's OK with me.' "
This was the fifth medal tie overall in Olympic alpine skiing. There have been three ties for second, including the USA's Diann Roffe Steinrotter tying Anita Wachter of Austria for the silver medal in the giant slalom in 1992.
The others were the 1998 men's super-G (Didier Cuche and Hans Knauss) and the 1964 women's giant slalom (the USA's Jean Saubert and France's Christine Goitschel). And, in the 1948 men's downhill, two Swiss skiers tied for the bronze medal.
Ski races are timed to hundredths of a second, and the previous closest race for gold in Olympic history had been Picabo Street's winning run in the 1998 super-G — 0.01 seconds faster than Austrian Michaela Dorfmeister.
American Julia Mancuso's quest for history will have to wait another day as she finished eighth in the race, 0.99 seconds behind the winners.
Mancuso is eyeing to join Bode Miller atop the all-time Olympic medal chart for U.S. skiers with a fifth career medal,
"It's really crazy," Mancuso said of the tie. "I'm really happy for both girls. It's an amazing show."
Mancuso's search for a fifth medal will have to wait until Saturday's women's super-G.

Susan Hall spoke with Jack Phillips, CEO of the research firm International Institute for Analytics, about his company's 2011 predictions for the analytics industry and the skills involved.
Nine Predictions for the Analytics Industry in 2011
The competitive gap between analytical innovators and those who do not invest in analytics will widen over the coming 12 months.
Hall: You say that the use of analytics as a competitive differentiator in selected industries will explode. Which industries are you talking about?
Phillips: In our research brief, we list eight: banking, insurance, health care and life sciences, telecommunications, retail, energy and utilities, media and entertainment, and transportation.
Hall: You also say the gap between analytical innovators and those who don't will widen in high-profile ways. Can you give me an example of how that might happen?
Phillips: Sure. In the retail industry, if you as a company are not keeping up with your nearest competitors in the use of analytics to understand customer buying patterns, shelf space optimization, pricing strategies, obviously you're going to be at a disadvantage. The kinds of technologies being used now in the retail industry really revolve around analytics. So that technology to get information about customers is growing at a huge pace.
If, for example, you're not able to present a coupon at checkout based on the fact that you recognize the credit card and can align that with your customer profile that we've painstakingly built, both online and offline-if you're not able to do that and your nearest competitor is able to do that, customers are going to go to the competitor who is able to offer that customization.
In retail, there aren't many competitive frontiers left. There's really no competitive advantage to be had anymore by discovering a new magic corner or magic spot in a shopping mall. There really is no competitive advantage anymore to be had around pricing. The competitive advantage is out of that because of people like Sam's Club and Walmart. But specific applications in analytics really can produce a competitive advantage. At least that's what we're hearing.
The same is true in health care. We're just concluding our health care analytics research council, a six-month effort. Regional hospitals are realizing, "If we're going to remain competitive, we need to be predicting, using historical data sets, when a certain kind of patient is likely to need certain kinds of care." In that world, it's a lot more expensive to administer care at an emergency room level than at a planned level. Hospitals are saying, "Gosh, we've got lots of people coming in to the emergency room when things happen to them that could have been avoided with proper prediction."

Daren was wearing his G3 Guide Jacket during the fight. "The elastic waist of your jacket worked perfectly, and even when I was near to, or slightly over the top of my waders, I stayed dry on the inside. Thanks again for making a great product!!!"

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Demonstrative, the 2012 runner-up for steeplechaser of the year, will make the $150,000, Grade 1 Iroquois Steeplechase his first race over jumps this year.
Trainer Richard Valentine prepared Demonstrative for the Iroquois by running a mile and a quarter race on the Queen's Cup card in Mineral Springs, N.C. With regular rider Robbie Walsh aboard, Demonstrative won that race by three quarters of a length in 2 minutes, 20 seconds over a turf course labeled good.
``He galloped out all the way around the turn. So, that race was more like a mile and half,'' Valentine said when asked if that race would be enough of a test.
Valentine said the gelding, owned by Mrs. Jacqueline Ohrstrom, Jr. of The Plains, Va., had two good runs on a 1-mile gallop uphill in Virginia.
``He should be ready,'' the trainer said.
A win for Demonstrative would be his third in Grade 1. He already owns the trophies from last year's New York Turf Writers Cup at Saratoga and the Marion DuPont Scott Colonial Cup at Camden, S.C.
Divine Fortune, who was third in the steeplechaser of the year voting, is expected to be Demonstrative's main challenger. Racing in the colors of William L. Pape of Unionville, Pa. for Hall of Fame trainer Jonathan Sheppard, the 10-year-old prepped for the Iroquois with a win in an allowance contest at Stoneybrook, N.C. last month. Darren Nagle will ride again Saturday.
The field will include the Irish-bred Organisateur with Ross Geraghty, Cornhusker with Kieran Norris, the French-bred Molotof with Bernie Dalton, Lake Placid and James Slater and Slip Away with Paddy Young.
The Iroquois will be the eighth and final race Saturday at the event benefitting the Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt University.

Found January 24, 2013 on Fox Sports Wisconsin:
TEAMS: Milwaukee Brewers
MILWAUKEE -- The Milwaukee Brewers are going gold. Starting this season, the team will wear alternate gold jerseys, and it unveiled drawings of the design Thursday morning. This is Milwaukee's first new uniform since the team added the alternate blue "Milwaukee" jersey in 2010. The idea to add a gold top stemmed from the overwhelming success of a similar-looking jersey the Brewers wear on their annual Cerveceros Day. "The feedback from fans and players has been overwhelmingly positive," Brewers chief operating officer Rick Schlesinger said of the Cerveceros Day jersey in a statement. We believe that this jersey will be a very popular style, both on the field and at our retail locations." Players and coaches will be wearing the new uniform at the "Brewers On Deck" winter fan fest Sunday, and the jersey will be available for purchase at the event. Follow Andrew Gruman on Twitter.

The early reviews are in on Seth MacFarlane's popularity as Oscar host this year, and they're -- the envelope, please. Ah, let's see. The winner is … oh ho HO! What a surprise, folks! It's 'WE HATE SETH MACFARLANE'! Congratulations, 'PLEASE, ANYONE BUT SETH MACFARLANE!' Who would have predicted that 'GOD, WE JUST WANT TO SLAP THAT CHEESY OVER-WHITENED GRIN RIGHT OFF SETH MACFARLANE'S MADDENINGLY SMUG FACE!' would win this category??? *thundering applause*
Okay, I'm paraphrasing just a tiny, tiny bit, but the critical response to MacFarlane's Thursday performance at the Academy Awards nominations has been nothing short of scathing. It seems like critics are sick and tired of hosts snarking on the creative community during a ceremony meant to honor that same community -- and who can blame them?
I mean, I totally get the negative reaction to a host that announces the nominees for best adapted screenplay by saying,
These are adapted screenplays, so that means that the writers basically copied stuff from Microsoft Word and pasted it into Final Draft.
It's one thing to poke fun at the celebrity culture in general and even to push the boundaries of what's considered acceptable -- for instance, I loved Ricky Gervais making fun of the seemingly untouchable Angelina Jolie during his Globes hosting gig. He was right! The Tourist DID bomb, but you'd think by the collective audience gasp that he'd made a racist joke about amputees.
But I feel like it's something else entirely to make fun of the awards you're handing out, and the recipients. Apparently when he presented the the women nominated for supporting actress and a joke about Hitler, he said,
I read Amour was co-produced in Austria and Germany, right? The last time Austria got together and co-produced something it was Hitler, but this is much better.
As for the best director candidates,
These are five people who are the very best at sitting in a chair and watching other people make a movie.
I'm sure the Academy has this huge struggle ever year where they try to maximize the entertainment provided by the host and pomp and circumstance of the event itself. If the Oscars are boring to watch, no one's going to tune in, right? Choosing a controversial host, therefore, is a good thing -- because everyone wants to see what's he's going to say. But going for an insulting, condescending MC belittles the very people the Oscars are supposedly intended to honor.
As Vulture writer Jesse David Fox put it,
You could see MacFarlane struggling to figure out how to seem like the guy whose show had a baby putting horse semen on his cereal, but not actually offend the more conservative Oscar audience. (…) Diminishing an entire Hollywood profession doesn't work with the award show's earnestness, and it's also a pretty big boulder to throw at an event that exists to extol the genius of these very professions. It's one thing for Steve Martin to make digs at Hollywood egos (Ha, ha, the crowd laughs, So true, even if not in my case). It's another to basically say, 'You people are being rewarded for something that is not technically a skill.'
Yeah, I agree. People spend their entire careers trying to score an Oscar, right? Receiving a nomination or award is, for some, probably one of the most momentous occasions in their entire lives. In the unlikely event I were to receive such an honor, I can imagine that I'd greatly prefer for the person announcing my name to refrain -- just for that one, brief instant in time! -- from publicly tearing me down.
Here's a look at MacFarlane in action during the nominations:
What do you think about Seth MacFarlane as Oscar host? Are you looking forward to seeing him onstage?
Image via Gage Skidmore/Flickr
i have no problem with seth mcfarlane hosting the oscars because otherwise they're boring and stuffy and only matter to celebrities anyway. do you REALLY care who won best director? did it change whether you watched a movie or not? well since this is stuff that's already out for consumption, i'm sure those oscars didn't influence your viewership decision - nor should they.
look, a bunch of rich, entitled people sitting around pulling each others strings and making goo-goo eyes at each other trying to advance their careers and lives. and the average american at home watching tv should care because - - - - well, why? if it's such an uptight, serious ceremony to "celebrate achievements" then stop putting it on tv and giving a crap about the ratings. if that's what it really was about, ratings wouldn't even be a factor.
Way late to the discussion here but my thing is...if they are tired of snark and didn't want a host that will make jokes about the profession then why hire one that is KNOWN for that? They cant have it both ways- serious and funny/entertaining. Like someone above said, its really about ratings. All I heard about Gervais' 1st performance as host of one of these awards shows was how disrespectful and distasteful he was...then they asked him to do it again! They like all the talk about it and know people will tune in if they think the host may stir up controversy of some kind.

A missing Oklahoma teen has been found after 15 days of being missing. The girl, who's name was not released by the Louisiana Department of Public Safety and Corrections, was found in Gonzales, LA with a parolee.
The teen was reported missing on April 3, 2013 and was listed on the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
The teen was found with 20-year-old Dillon Hall in Gonzales, LA after officials received reports that Hall was involved with drugs and possibly in the company of an underage female. Officials went to Hall's residence late Thursday where he was found with the missing teen.
Hall was on good-time parole supervision for contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile. When Hall was found, officials say he was in possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia, which is a violation of supervision conditions.
Hall was booked with marijuana possession, contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile and illegal use of CDS in the presence of a juvenile. Additional charges are possible once the Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office completes its investigation.

Yesterday, after Sen. Arlen Specter (R-PA) announced he was leaving a Republican Party that he said had "moved far to the right," ThinkProgress noted that another moderate Republican, Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-ME), piled on his criticism of the GOP, raising questions about her future in the party. In a New York Times op-ed this morning, Snowe wrote that as a moderate Republican "you often get the distinct feeling that you're no longer welcome in the tribe." Seemingly demonstrating her point, Fox News' new Fox Nation website linked to the op-ed under the headline, "Don't let the door hit you…."

Some interesting data in this Forbes report about crashes on iOS and Android apps. Not surprising to see the top apps having fewer crashes than the rest of the market. But not the results I would have predicted between iOS and Android. Given the high level of fragmentation in the Android handset world, I would have thought Android apps would crash more than iOS ones. This is good news for Google as it is a strong data point indicating that fragmentation is not really hurting Android app developers.
I have to wonder if there is not selection bias in the data though? This data is from a company app developers use to help them make their applications better, so naturally these are developers who are actively tracking and improving their applications. This data does not speak about the quality of all the applications on each platform.
