FTC is putting an end to most robo calls
Telemarketers: Your ability to make robo calls is about to expire. Starting Tuesday, most commercial telemarketers will be prohibited from making those annoying pre-recorded telemarketing calls to consumers — whether or not they have signed up for the Federal Trade Commission's National Do Not Call Registry.

S&P turns slighly less pessimistic about California's credit rating
Standard & Poor's removed California's debt rating from CreditWatch today, which means S&P is not likely to cut the rating — already lower than any other state's — over the next 90 days. But S&P says its outlook for the next six months to two years remains negative. That means a rating cut is still […] [Read More]

Will the Chevy Volt really get 230 mpg?
Consumers should take General Motors' claim that the Chevy Volt plug-in hybrid will get 230 miles per gallon in city driving with a grain of salt or — in this case — a drop of gas. "Your mileage may vary means more to the owner of a plug-in than any other car on the market," […] [Read More]
Question of the day: When will California stop issuing IOUs?
Q: Stephanie Lucas writes, "I just received one of the famous California IOUs (for a tax adjustment refund).

She Did Fine!
November 2, 2007 / Posted by: Michael K
Jennifer Garner opened as Roxane in Cyrano de Bergerac on Broadway last night. The New York Times called her performance "captivating." Really? That woman is about as captivating as a bowl of boxed mashed potatoes.
When Jen Garner's husband, Ben Affleck, was asked what he felt about her performance he said, "She did fine!" He probably realized he sounded like a complete dick, so he went on to say "It was terrific, and I had a lot of fun. I'm really impressed by her courage and her talent."
I'll probably see this turkey fest, because I'm gay and gay people like Broadway and fancy costumes. Oh and you can't go wrong with Kevin Kline!

Yo party people, how's it?
Sooo, aside from occasional lurking sessions I've pretty much been AWOL from the internet since, um, November? So okay first there was pre-holidays and then there was holidays and then there was post-holidays and things kinda got away from me and keeping up with everything became kinda overwhelming (DUDE, adulthood is exhausting y'all). I've been operating at approximately negative 5 billion on the creative production scale and rather than the internet inspiring me as it usually does - seeing all the awesome, creative things people were doing became stressful. I started feeling more and more like the hole I was in was in was inescapable.
That thing happened then - that thing where, on top of being stressful, it started to get embarrassing to check in because I knew I didn't have it in me to respond to messages and requests. Add to that the lack of anything to show for my radio silence and - BAM! - one vicious cycle of guilt-ridden avoidance. Very healthy. Very mature.
ANYWAY, the point is - I'm pretty sure there's a point in here somewhere - I'm trying to get back on the wagon. So please be patient while I try to sort through my backlog of messages and notes AND while I learn to be kinder and more patient with myself. I've started making things again, so there's progress!
PS We should probably ALL work on being kinder and more patient with ourselves right? People are amazing.

All things within this archive are based upon two premises. First it must be free! And second, it must have something to do with the world of erotica!
What is The Kristen Archives?
This archive is based upon Kristen's collection of erotic stories. It was begun by her in 1997 and has been built on extensively since then. You will find every type of sexual situation covered in these stories; there have been no judgments made as far as subject. In the archive, you will find well over 15,000 erotic stories, plus illustrated archives, Kristen's own stories, as well as the archives of respected writers whose works have been posted to the alt.sex.stories.moderated and alt.sex.stories newsgroups.

Nicholas Wilder came to Tri-State Actors Theater in Sussex, N.J., to be a vampire, but these days he is Crumpet the elf in a production of "Santaland Diaries," a one-man show, based on a David Sedaris memoir, to be performed Friday and Saturday at the Columns Museum in Milford, Pa.
Diverted intentions is also the subject of Sedaris' memoir. Sedaris came to New York to be a writer, but needing to pay his bills, he took a job as an elf at Macy's. He became accomplice to a diverse array of Santas, not necessarily jolly, and ear to children, whether bringing fantasies or shopping lists, says co-producer Patricia Meacham, who runs the theater with her husband, Paul.
"Being Crumpet the Elf is much like being a Rockette," Meacham said — glitz onstage, a more tawdry life backstage.
"Santaland Diaries" will be performed at the Columns Museum, 608 Broad St., Milford, Pa., at 8 p.m. Dec. 7-8. Tickets are $25 in advance, or $30 at the door. Call Tri-State Actors Theater at 973-383-8126, or the Columns at 570-296-8126, or email Tristateactorstheater.org.
"A Christmas Carol" will be performed Dec. 13-23 at Sussex County Community College's Performing Arts Center, 1 College Hill Road, Newton, N.J. Tickets are $20-$28. Call 973-300-3171 or go to sussex.edu,
Meacham said she met Wilder when he auditioned to play Renfield in "The Passion of Dracula." Renfield is a disturbed patient in a sanitarium where Dracula inducts vampire companions by biting them. Meacham said Wilder's audition was memorable, and in real life he was personable, but the part had been promised. So he became Lord Godalmine, a British aristocrat who falls for the doctor investigating the strange goings-on, but she, too, gets bitten.
Tri-State Actors Theater, now in its 25th year, also has had several changes. The Meachams started it at Wallkill High School in Hardyston, N.J., in 1987, working with teens, plus children in the summer. When they added adult plays, they performed in Branchville for five years, then rescued the Sussex Theater from being levelled into a parking lot by reahking a deal with the town. That arrangement lasted until 2010, when their company became the resident professional theater at Sussex County Community College in Newton, N.J.
The company's appearance at the Columns is part of its foray into fulfilling its "Tri-state" moniker. Katrina Foster, a member of their board of directors, introduced the Meachams to Columns staff, and in November the company performed at the museum's "Cabaret Night."
"When we talked about other possibilities, 'Santaland' was a perfect fit," Meacham said.
Wilder will also be exploring the spooks of conscience this month, playing Bob Cratchit and Jacob Marley in "A Christmas Carol" Dec. 13-23 at Sussex County Community College.

Orrick rejoins merger club by courting Akin Gump
Readers' comments (6)
Orrick in MORE merger talks? What's wrong with these guys? They just don't know what they want!
This looks like a good meger. Both firms are increasingly sub-scale and need more resources for expansion in emerging markets. The practice fit is excellent and the cultures are very similar.
If this goes ahead I'll eat my hat
Boy oh boy, just when SJB look like the ugliest, snivelling wretch at the ball up steps Orrick with running mascara and a torn gown begging the last boy available to take her up to Lookout Point to make out.
Ralph, have some pride man for pity's sake.
Hi, My name's Ralph. I've never met you before but I can see the synergies. Fancy coming back to my place and getting down to some serious merger action?
What? You're not interested?
Just in case this one doesn't work...
(...skull in hand)
Alas, Poor Orrick
We knew them, a curio
a law firm of infinite hope, their flights of fancy hath borne merger-stories a thousand times and now, how abhorred in our imagination they are!
Our eyes roll at it.
Here hung those lips that have kissed frogs we know not how oft.
Where be your strategy now?

Cocaine Vs Party Pills | Guess who's the winner?!
Let us break it down for
Banned worldwide | Legal in all countries
Dreadful Side-effects | Absolutely no side-effects
Extremely addictive | Not at all addictive
Now some well-known but still well undertaken facts about cocaine:
Urban Name: Snow, Coke , Charlie
Cocaine is categorized as a highly addictive and very powerful psychotropic stimulant drug. It's usual in the form of powder and is snorted by users. Cocaine can also be dissolved in water and injected directly into the blood.
Crack Cocaine is a hydrochloride salt, neutralized by acid. The rock crystal a.k.a. "crack" is heated and the vapors are smoked by the users. The term "crack" comes from the cracking sound of the crystal when heated.
Cocaine prices are not fixed.It varies drastically from region to region. The average street prices derived from our reports collected from 20 different parts of England are as under:
1 ) A gram of pure coke powder usually costs between £30 and £60.
2 ) A Crack rock costs between £12 and £20 while a slice or as a 'clubbing rock' comes for around £10. It varies drastically from region to region.
No matter where ever you go the purest form of cocaine is always a fluke. The purity of Crack depends on the cocaine used in processing.A wrap of cocaine powder is usually mixed with substances like sugar or starch.
High & Crash on Cocaine
The Take Off
Cocaine acts extremely quick on the mind & body causing an initial sense of wellbeing and self-confidence. After taking cocaine a user becomes wide awake and feels fueled-up to think, talk, act & work compulsively in all new way. It makes a person feel the sensation of "speediness" in him.It gives a high surge sensation of physical strength and mental alertness.
However the cocaine "lift" is temporal and lasts for 2 to 4 hours or even less. A user reaches his peak very fast but it continuous only for about half a hour. The very next moment of the 'come-down' effect of cocaine, the user develops a nervous & urgent need for more. The after-effect a.k.a. "crash" of cocaine is the worst followed by irritation of nerves, a sudden feeling of gloom which can make the user pretty violent.
Cocaine is categorized as "A Class" controlled drug. Cocaine may be prescribed in certain situations, otherwise it is absolutely illegal worldwide to produce or supply and even to possess.The worst part is that cocaine is freely distributed all around the world even though it is illegal and banned…
Possession and use of cocaine is illegal in Hong Kong unless licensed by the Department of Health. In countries like Singapore, possession of cocaine more than 30 grams is treated as extremely illega. The court of law sentences death or severe punishment for such acts..
Australia & New Zealand
Cocaine is a "Schedule 8" controlled drug in these countries and illegal procession is outlawed.
USA & Canada
Cocaine is classified as a high stimulant drug under the Controlled Substances Act of the United States & Canada. Possession of cocaine is prohibited in these countries.
United Kingdom
In UK and most European countries Cocaine is categorized as a "Class A" drug & highly controlled by the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971. Medical use is permitted only under stringent authorization.
Cut the Snow Down
It is proven and well known that cocaine is a strong psychotropic stimulant, which interferes directly with the work process of the brain.As cocaine is a very addictive drug no cocaine user is found to have used it just once in their lifetime. Withdrawal from cocaine use is very difficult as seen in most cases.A cocaine user gets severely into this drug habit or he always looks for alternative drugs like LSD to comply with his requirement by his body.
Added Danger: Cocaethylene
It is very dangerous and even lethal to mix cocaine with alcohol. Research conducted by worldwide laboratories shows that when human liver combines cocaine and alcohol it produces a third substance called "cocaethylene", which aggravates cocaine's euphoric effects and also increases the potential risk of sudden death or at least severe damage to one's internal organs.
Use the Straight Stuff
Our legal cocaine pills are called and will elevate your energy level so that you are all pumped up to rock the dance floor. Party Pills not only fulfills your wish to party till dawn like a real party predator but also gives you a sense of relief because of its legal and safe nature. Go beyond the Snowman experience with party pills which is an absolutely natural and safe party pill. Party pills is the only legal cocaine substitute made of pure herbs that gives you an immense high without leaving you all dry. So now you never have to feel the suppression and face the guilt of using illegal & harmful street drugs. Go ahead, score the best stuff & be the ULTIMATE PARTY ANIMAL!!!

Integrated Coastal Zone Management
Activities pursued in coastal regions by various sectors like agriculture, fisheries, industry, tourism and construction sectors, produce damaging impacts on coastal ecosystems. These long-term effects may include the loss of biodiversity and natural resources for future generations. In many countries, major cities and industries are located along the coast and are increasingly causing environmental degradation through pollution, excessive water consumption, land misuse, beach erosion and inadequate waste disposal methods. For example, the conversion of mangrove and sea grass areas into aquaculture ponds destroys critical ecosystems that nurture juvenile fish and filtrate sediments. Further, illegal logging and mining cause soil erosion and contaminate rivers and seas. The harvesting of banned species and illegal fishing practices like blast fishing or the intrusion of commercial fishing vessels into municipal waters denies local fishermen of food and income and depletes natural resources and biodiversity.
Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) is a holistic management approach, based on the "ecosystem concept", that integrates the protection of marine areas with the various activities pursued in the coastal zone [1]. There are only a few international agreements that tangentially refer to ICZM, such as the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and the Convention on Biological Diversity. Due to the lack of binding and specifically applicable international instruments, the political will of countries plays a decisive role in applying the ICZM approach, not least the commitment to Agenda 21 which specifies the objectives and implementation of ICZM.
ICZM requires multi-stakeholder participation and the establishment of appropriate legislative and institutional measures to prevent, control and reduce the impacts of human activities on coastal areas. UNITAR's workshops have provided a framework for the exchange of information on best practices among stakeholders, especially in the Mediterranean region.

Good Questions: What Chairs to Go With a Cherner Table?
AT:SF, What chairs to go with this [Cherner] table? I'm purchasing this table soon and need some ideas for the best chairs (4). My initial thought is the white eames eiffel or fiberglass modernica chair but I'd like other options to think about as well. Thanks!
Suggestions for Sandra?
Note: Include a picture and your question gets posted first
14 Comments
I'd do the saarinen side chair http://hivemodern.com/products/?view=sub_product&sid=1266&cid=2&cid2=104
in white or off-white with either dark wood or metal legs -- depending on the what the rest of your decor is like.
What about Louis Ghost chairs or Bertoia side chairs or the Saarinen Tulip Armless chairs? all found in dwr.
The Cherner chairs really look the best.
Why not some vintage Danish Modern teak chairs such as these?
http://www.klassikbylynne.com/ (reference #'s c2066 & c2015)
Love your table!!
Here's an idea... they definitely go together but its not very original!
The Arne Jacobsen Series 7 chair is awesome. I would choose a lighter wood tone to go with the dark table. But even the colored ones would look killer, especially if you chose a few different colors. I think you can get them violet, green, orange, and red in addition to the wood tones.
I always dig the contrast of a wood table with sleek metal chairs.
I am with besf something simple like Danish vintage Modern keep the lines consistant. I like contrasting only when its done right and not for the sake of contrasting which can look like a ball gown with white tennis shoes.
I see bentwood Thonet style or Breuer chairs as well.
Beautiful table. I would take into account the width of the seat and legs of the chairs. Even a little too wide and it's gonna be really tight between those table legs.
That being said, I too like the Arne Jacobsen Series 7.
This is such an elegant, simple piece. Why not mix up various chairs in a color (or two) that works for your place?
What an elegant table! I think you can use a wide number of chairs to go along with this table because it's clean lines and chic simplicity are classic.
I like all of the suggestions mentioned so far - I think any would work well.
Here are a few more suggestions: (1) Simple leather or upholstered parsons chairs in nearly any color with dark legs (2) a klismos-styled chair in a dark wood or painted a dark color light midnight blue (3) a Panton "S" chair in white or yellow. (4) an Eames eiffel styled molded chair in a dramatic or playful color (5) the Risom chair with navy or dark red straps, or (6) a Bellini chair or similarly styled chair.
I think it would be hard for you to make a mistake with whatever you choose with this beautiful table.
so many possibilities...bertoia wire chairs (in chrome, black, or white), jacobsen series 7 or ants (or any of the more affordable knockoffs at room and board, crate and barrel, dwr, west elm), eames eiffels, marcel breuer (many options) or mies van der rohe brno, or even eero saarinen #71.
this table works with so many choices. enjoy.
I really like the Cherner table with Knoll's Risom side chairs.
Knoll have also just released the Nakashima Straight Chair, which would look really cool too! You can see them here:
these Thonet chairs could work...
Or, since the tables works with so many different chairs, why not have 4 different pairs of chairs, all in the same colour? Say, 2 Herman Czech armchairs, 2 Saarinen Series 7 chairs, 2 Saarinen side chairs, 2 IKEA Norvald chairs, all in white (or maybe red, or black...)...

Hey Larisa, glad to see you saw yourself in the article. That's one of the things "15 Minutes of Fame" is about -- showing players a glimpse of who's likely to be behind the avatar they run into at the mailbox in Shattrath. Calaana, sometimes that's someone remarkable (either in game or out), but often it's not. Our column often shares with readers a look at someone who turns out to be just like them -- something commenters tell us again and again they love to read.
Women *do* still face certain issues and situations when playing MMOs; hence, a certain degree of analysis and exploration is appropriate, such as asking strat vid producer Tamzin (in another recent "15 Minutes") about her own experiences as a young female player. However, as several players have noted on this thread, being female and/or being "older" is no longer the rarity it used to be. In fact, "older female gamers" is the most common tip we receive at 15 Minutes of Fame!
Where does that leave female gamers? Somewhere in a grey area: still dealing with a certain amount of stereotypes and related issues, yet definitely no longer a mind-boggling rarity that stops fellow players cold.
But back to Rainnajax. Is she "special," or is she an Everyman player? The answer: a little of both. Being a female gamer over 30 does lend a certain perspective to things -- but it isn't very unusual anymore. Older first-time gamers is a trend worth noting, a player type whose numbers are exploding due to the wildfire popularity of WoW (and one we haven't explored much here yet). And Rainnajax's guild membership has certainly provided plenty of food for thought for readers here. There's a lot to think about here, really, no matter how whether you consider her typical or atypical among the player base. And that's the beauty of giving so many different types of players their 15 Minutes of Fame -- it shines the spotlight on the diversity of players in such a hugely popular game as World of Warcraft.

After all, the Mets' rallying cry isn't "Perhaps you should consider believing." It's "Ya gotta believe!" It's mandatory. Reason doesn't enter into it. Math has no meaning to those who still remain. A Mets fan doesn't root for the Mets because it makes sense. A Mets fan roots for the Mets because of an otherworldly ability to dream that things will be better than they seem, regardless of realities financial or outfield.
And an I.B.O. joins Amway hoping to make money, despite critics who charge that nearly everyone who joins Amway loses money. Amway doesn't present an alternative fact, but open the binder every new I.B.O. receives, one that was given to me, and written in five languages is a quote from co-founder Jay Van Andel: "You can't predict the future, but you can follow your dreams."

LA CROSSE, Wisconsin (WXOW/AP) - The children of Eric Koula, the West Salem man convicted last year of killing his parents, will inherit part of their grandparents' estate.
Probate records filed this week in La Crosse County Circuit Court show Eric Koula's two children will split $740,000 when they're older.
The daughter of Dennis and Merna Koula, Cynthia Cowell, will also receive $740,000.
The Koula's named Cowell and Eric Koula as representatives of the estate. During the criminal proceedings against Koula, he was removed as representative by the court.
Koula is serving two life sentences for the deaths of his parents, Dennis and Merna Koula. Prosecutors argued at Koula's 2012 trial that deep debt and floundering day trading career drove him to kill his parents for the inheritance in May, 2010, in their Barre Mills home.
Koula and his family maintain he's innocent. Following his conviction, his attorneys say they plan to appeal the outcome.

May 2014
I had good intentions, but was preoccupied. I knitted while volunteering at church — and forgot the booties there for a week. I knitted at baseball games — and neglected to switch out the yarn. Here's the second set of baby booties frogged — Rip it! Rip it! – in a month. This is backward progression, and by the time the booties are mailed they won't fit the baby, but his doll.
I tried, small nephew, but effort alone is my gift. Strange, I think, how easy it is to loosen what binds me and move on. It's not this way with other parts of my life: Intention is never enough. As a woman, I cannot forgive the soft aging of my flesh. With my writing, oh, no: The short story is flat, the essay a disappointment, the blog post is, well, blah. And as a mother, I am equally demanding of chores and grades and manners. Trying has become tiresome and tormented, something one should do, ought to do, but no longer wants to do.
Imagine pulling the lines of prose off the page and winding them up like I do yarn. A ball of words. Tongue-tied. Peel away the ill-suited sentences, and leave the page clean and empty, the white surface no longer muddied by ink, but crisp with potential. The storyteller begins again. Wake to a day where a woman appreciates her imperfections, and a mother can thank the effort and overlook the outcome, and I say, there is love for both self and others there.

Finished reading "Show Your Work" by Austin Kleon. It's a tiny book loaded with rich advice on how to share your creativity and get discovered.
Ate a bowl of raspberries, a cup of tea and a square of dark coconut toffee chocolate.
Washed and folded all the laundry. Except for everyone's towels and sheets, but I'm still counting it.
Listened to Track Eight of Tom Brosseau's "Grass Punks." This CD rocks.
Bought a new used car before the old one's smoking engine seized up.
Wrapped some long-promised reading material. It's a glorious day in Seattle, and I want to walk these packages to the post office and mail them to some friends who love to read. I've got an address for Kyna, but Denise? Coral? Shoot me some email for some summertime reading: levyrachael (at) gmail (dot) com.

Andrea Lani of Remains of the Day asked me to participate in the My Writing Process blog meme. Because I've got a stubborn streak against anyone who tries to give me a writing assignment (a remnant from my days as a newspaper reporter), I've declined other memes. But being part of a community means supporting and joining when one can, and so I agreed to answer the following questions:
What am I working on?
A short story.
A weekly blog post.
How does my work differ from others of its genre?
I've published a few essays about my experiences as a mother, as well as a piece of flash fiction that included magical realism, but I don't have nearly enough published material to lay claim to a genre. Mothering is a lens through which I view the world, but what interests me is the working class, alienation and rural poverty, the drifters and do-gooders. So, I'm reading Larry Brown and Tillie Olsen. I'm looking forward to Willy Vlautin.
Why do I write what I do?
To remember.
To understand.
To communicate.
How does my writing process work?
I write stream of consciousness first thing in the morning. I write with a bright yellow pen in cheap spiral notebooks I buy during back-to-school sales. I return to the notebooks and search for threads of a story. I write some more. A better description of how I work can be found in the post Assholes All Around.
Who's next on My Writing Process blog tour?
The meme's instructions asked that I ask three bloggers to share their writing processes. But it's the nature of memes to act much like genes in that they "self-replicate, mutate and respond to selective pressures," according to Wikipedia; I tapped one.
Piccalilli Pie is written by my friend Christina Wilsdon whose librarianish mind wanders hither and yon. Chris lives in the Seattle area with her husband, daughter, one dog, two cats, and a horse. She worked in the publishing industry in various production and editorial positions before becoming a freelance writer about 20 years ago. Chris writes mainly nonfiction books and articles about natural history, science, and other nonfiction topics for kids ranging in age from 4 to 14. Her blog, however, is for grown-up readers, and there she writes about anything that takes her fancy, from aphids to zweibacks.
Please visit Piccalilli Pie on April 14 to learn about Chris' writing process. And thank you, Andrea, for this opportunity.

Lamar Odom would rather order tacos than answer questions about his crack problem ... and we don't blame him ... his order sounds delicious.
The NBA star was making a munchies run moments ago, hitting up a Taco Bell drive-thru near his and Khloe's Tarzana home ... and proudly displaying his wedding ring ... when he was pelted with questions about his drug addiction.
Lamar wasn't feeling talkative, but he did manage to complete his order ... laughing in the process.
It's a good sign Odom has stopped smoking crack -- at least temporarily -- because one does not typically make food runs while zonked.
As we reported, Lamar has returned home after going MIA for several days and is now listening to his wife Khloe's advice, though he's still undecided about seeking treatment for his crack cocaine problem.
Fun fact: the famous Taco Bell chihuahua died in 2009. R.I.P.
I have several friends in the nba and there is no way Lamar is addicted to crack. He does however have an RX pain pill problem. This is common though, when players are recovering from an injury and then have a hard time kicking it. Like any good lie, this has traction because there is a thread of truth in it. He does have an addiction problem. But it's not crack.
I hope Lamar sues Mike & tmz for all this racist, defamatory bs being fed by the Kardashian clan
Despicable people
Its all fake thats why he's smiling ... He probably left fiona from sherek bcuz her pimp momma and sisters made the whole iish up and he didnt agree with them
hold up here, lamar is not buying "tacos etc" for himself. he is on a foodie run for his fat lazy brother in law rob kardasian. i wish lamar best of luck with his "drug problem" i think rob is the one hold up eating junk food. not lamar smoking crack. just saying
Leave him alone. I can see the "this is so strange, having grown ass men taking pics 2 feet away" look on his face. I hope hes ok regaurdless if he stays with Khloe or not. xoxo
"For the past month to six weeks, every story coming out about Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom dealt with Lamar cheating and all the women he was cheating with and all the sordid details of the cheating. Kris Jenner was not in control of any of those stories. She just had to watch and wait as it all happened and hope there were no more women. When everyone said the couple was set to divorce, Kris said there had not even been talk about divorce. You and I know that was a lie. Of course it was a lie. You don't have your husband cheat on you a bazillion times and embarrass you all over the world and not discuss it. That was a stupid statement by Kris, but she was tring to control the story.
Remember when Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian split? Kris Jenner went back and reshot a bunch of scenes for the show so she could show that Kim was a victim and that she did everything to save the marriage and that Kris Humphries was evil and blah blah blah. The story that they switched everything was gone in a few days, but those reruns of the show are out there forever.
Now, Kris Jenner has started feeding stories to their beloved Harvey at TMZ. Yes, the same TMZ that refuses to say anything about any Kardashian ever. They will probably die if Kanye marries Kim because then they will have to be nice to him.
TMZ is saying in an article they posted last night that Lamar Odom has a serious drug problem and that Khloe does not care about the affairs, but wants to save Lamar's life. It also says that when Lamar refused to go to rehab two day ago, Khloe kicked him out of the house. Umm, he has been living out of the house for over a month, and had been living in The Roosevelt for a month before that, so when did the kicking out occur? See, it's all spin. Photos of Lamar loading suitcases. Kris says, "This it it." Khloe kicked him out and here is the proof.
It's all a scam to make everyone named Kardashian look good. Does Lamar Odom take drugs? Yeah. He smokes pot for sure. other drugs? He is tested by the NBA all the time and has not been in trouble with them in a long time. TMZ called him a hardcore recreational user. If you smoke pot everyday, several times each day, that would make you, by definition a hardcore recreational drug user.
The divorce is coming. Kris is just making sure you see Khloe as some saint, who went above and beyond. Those scenes you will see on television. You won't see or hear a word about affairs or cheating, just Khloe being a saint, and TMZ will make sure they help.
Don't forget that TMZ and People are owned by the same company. They get a discount on kneepads."
Ok we get it tmz. You can leave him alone now.. Smh
Taco Bell and crack don't mix. I wonder how many times he's sh*t the bed on his wifey. This is TMI.
How do they walk up to someone's car like that? Get well soon Lamar.
EVERYONE but TMZ reporting Jenner's talk show cancelled. Harvey needs to get approval from Kris Jenner before running and to put the spin on it that she quit due to family obligations.
Let us now when he takes a dump...
This is a publicity stunt. Lamar dies not have a drug problem. Theres no way if this were true he 2ill not be running errands buying tacos. ****en kardashian family thinks we are stupid to believe their bull****. Poor lamar is bait and he doesn't realise it. Wake the **** up
Now tell me that none of this fake B.S. drama is being filmed for their fake lives show.
Tmz, you guys are s***.
Somehow linking the word taco to anything remotely connected to the word Kardashian reminds me of grease, stink, and hair. Not a good picture.

Chris Benoit shocked the wrestling world when he was able to win the Royal Rumble and earned himself a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania. He was successfully able to eliminate the Big Show to win the match.
Former best friends turned heated rivals engaged in a battle for the World Heavyweight Championship at the Royal Rumble as Shawn Michaels challenged Triple H in a Last Man Standing match, but neither side could proclaim victory as the bout ended in a draw.
Bob Holly finally got his chance at the WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble, but he was unable to defeat Brock Lesnar to become the champion. This match was the Smackdown main event for the evening.
Despite repeated attempts by his father to interfere, Chavo Guerrero was unable to beat his uncle Eddie Guerrero in a match at the Royal Rumble.
Jamie Noble, who was accompanied by Nidia, challenged for the WWE cruiser weight championship at the Royal Rumble, but he was unable to defeat the massively popular Rey Mysterio for the belt after a very brief match that lasted less than four minutes.
Ric Flair and Batista, representing Evolution, were successfully able to defend the WWE tag titles against the Dudley Boyz in a Tables match at the Royal Rumble. In a rather interesting bit, the match lasted less than five minutes.
"One time, and this is a true story, we were in South Africa and [Cena] started battle rapping. He started rapping with someone and it was awesome. He went five minutes just talking about things around the room. And we were like, 'Oh my gosh. Where did that come from?' Tommy Dreamer heard it and Tommy took it to Shane McMahon and Shane McMahon heard it and took it to Vince McMahon and next thing you know he's a rapper on TV…and he had already been with us six months or so. Slowly but surely he just became John Cena the superstar."
- Tommy Dreamer telling a backstage story
Another person that has been gaining some power backstage in TNA is Taz. Aside from being the voice of Impact Wrestling, he also has been helping out with the creative department. Taz was also instrumental in the return of Tommy Dreamer to the front office.
While he made his return to the company in a full time capacity recently, Tommy Dreamer has no plans on wrestling all that frequently for TNA. He is simply there to work backstage as an agent. Dreamer also mentioned that he was open to more responsibilities within the promotion.
Within the industry, Jeff Jarrett is viewed as someone that has a great sense of business and is quite versatile, so when he opted to leave TNA, Dixie Carter decided to replace him with someone similiar. Tommy Dreamer is now filling the role once held by Jarrett.

Police identified a woman pulled from the water near the Promenade in Canton as Elizabeth O'Hearn, 53.
She was found floating in the water, according to Police Department spokesman Anthony Guglielmi, around 5:45 a.m., and was dead at the scene.
O'Hearn's body was found near the 2300 block of Boston St. on Thursday, Nov. 15.
Several reports have identified her as Dr. Elizabeth O'Hearn, a neuroscience professor at Johns Hopkins University.
Guglielmi said that O'Hearn's death is listed as "pending," meaning that an autopsy did not immediately identify the cause of death, and the police are awaiting a report from the Maryland Office of Chief Medical Examiners.

Release Date: 2002 |
This comp sounds good. "Rumors" kind of turned me off to Fleetwood Mac, but then I heard Peter Green put on the smackdown with John Mayall. So, connecting the dots, I can only assume that this music right here is muy bien.
Good review, yo. John Paul is interested.
but John McVie deserves such high praise also. I agree.
Albatross, Oh Well, etc. pretty good songs. I prefer the less bluesy side of Fleetwood Mac but anything with Mick Fleetwood on drums and John McVie on bass is good. My brother, who hates the blues fleetwood mac, was given a tape of video performances of all these songs. It's pretty cool, they even perform Rattlesnake Shake at the playboy mansion. I'd get it if i were you.
but John McVie deserves such high praise also.
Album Rating: 4.0yeh anyone who does not know this side of Fleetwood Mac should get this collection! If your put off by Rumours or the any of their popular songs this is worlds apart. Blues is good in the summertime... which leaves only a couple of weeks for you to get this comp. :p
i love classic rock but havent heard these guys b4, are they any good?
Album Rating: 4.0stompybeardo - yes they are incredibly good! The review pretty much sums up how i feel bout them, but in short - they play a very melodic laid back style of blues-rock not alot else i can say that i havent said in this review but do check them out!
Album Rating: 4.0This is a great collection of songs. McVie and Fleetwood form an excellent rhythm section and Peter Green is naturally amazing.Digging: Saviour Machine - Saviour Machine I
Digging: Saviour Machine - Saviour Machine I

GameCast: August 5th at Cincinnati
Rich Harden (7-6, 4.50 ERA) vs. Justin Lehr (0-0, 5.40 ERA)
In the shadow of a surging Cardinals team, the Cubs are poised to sweep another team on the road -- this time being the Reds, in what is surely Dusty Baker's swan song as a major league manager.
Pitching for the Cubs is Rich Harden, who's had a less-than-fantastic walk year although he's stayed healthier than anybody could've imagined. On the mound for the Reds is Justin Lehr, a journeyman who is back to the majors for the first time since 2006, when he had an 8.62 ERA with the Brewers. Tonight will mark only his second career start.
Re-joining the Cubs today is legendary slugging second baseman Aaron Miles, best known for his epic clutch skills. The Cubs have cut down to 12 pitchers to make way for him, with more tough roster decisions to be made this weekend when Geovany Soto returns to the team.
Who's hot
The incredibly awesome Mike Fontenot - Fontenot is indesputibly the most universally loved Cub, thanks in part to his David vs. Goliath demeanor, coupled with his keen defensive skills and wavy, flowing hair. As usual, Fontenot's production has been tied into the Cubs' success -- their recent winning ways can certainly be attributed first and foremost to his .306 AVG in the past week of play. On top of that, his first-at-bat double last night was huge for the team. The once and future team MVP has an OPS of 1.056 over the past 7 days and will surely continue to put up huge numbers in the coming games.
Jake Fox - Okay, this one is subjective. He's only 4 for his last 17, but 3 of those 4 hits have been homeruns. So far this year ESPN has him on pace for 256 at bats, for which he is projected to compile 19 doubles, 19 homeruns, and 63 RBI. Granted, he hasn't had as much to do with the team's success as Fontenot, but he has certainly earned the right to remain on the team for the remainder of the season.
Derrek Lee - He's 9 for his last 30 (.300 AVG) with 5 extra base hits in that span. Not to mention the fact that, in 270 fewer at bats, Lee has already surpassed last year's homerun total while grounding into only 5 double plays.
Who's Not
The Cubs bullpen - For a while there they were efficient and reliable. Now they're back to their old, gut-wrenching tricks. Since July 31st, the bullpen has surrendered 15 runs in 15.2 innings of work, which doesn't even count the runs tacked onto the starters' tabs. Indeed, I don't feel particularly confident about any of those guys replacing Gregg.
The bullpen needs to shape up; Harden needs to consistently get outs, and the Cubs offense needs to pick up the slack so that Fontenot is no longer carrying them on his admittedly broad shoulders.
Oh, and I hope Cub fans brought their sweepin' brooms to Cincinnati. I've got a feeling they may get to use them tonight.
Dusty and the Brooms
Bob Castellini, President and CEO just gave Dusty a vote of confidence by stating that Dusty will remain the Reds Manager at least thru the 2010 season. No brooms tonight, as the Cub's offense was shut down again. How is this team going to hit the opponents best couple starters if they do make the post season, if they can't manage to score against number 3-4 guys?
Remember how the Cardinals
Remember how the Cardinals got shut out by Jonathan Niese, Nelson Figueroa, Bobby Parnell and some other scrubs a few hours before this happened?
Right then.

Zoom: Academy for Superheroes (more commonly known as Zoom) is the story of Jack Shepard (Tim Allen), formerly Captain Zoom of the superhero group Team Zenith.

Unbeknownst to him, the real purpose of their training is so they can battle Concussion, who is on the brink of returning to his home dimension.The film is loosely based on the Zoom's Academy children's book series.
