A Nebraska Wendy's franchise is slashing employee hours so the owners do not have to pay for health benefits for their workers under ObamaCare's requirements.
WOWT reports about 100 workers in non-management positions at 11 Omaha-area Wendy's will have their hours cut to 28 a week.
Gary Burdette, Vice President of Operations for the local franchise, tells the station that his restaurants cannot afford to pay for health coverage for all their employees under the new Affordable Health Care Act.

Hamstring lasts 10 seconds in pvp, not 15.
Hamstring lasts 10 seconds in pvp, not 15.
As for being chain immobilized, this is a good change. As a warrior/priest/mage in pvp I can say this is a fair change. There are several times I've lost a match on my mage/priest because a warrior got a lucky 3 or 4 imp hamstring procs in a row.

If you use rich snippets on your websites, you should be aware that Google is now penalizing websites for spamming structured data markup.
The new warning was first mentioned in a forum post on the Google Webmaster Central forums from a user who is asking for clarification about the warning and what the issue could be. It is a manual action penalty based on incorrect usage of markups, regardless of whether it was deliberate spam or simply a mistake.
The warning that would appear in a user's accounts if they have manual action taken is:
Markup on some pages on this site appears to use techniques such as marking up content that is invisible to users, marking up irrelevant or misleading content, and/or other manipulative behavior that violates Google's Rich Snippet Quality guidelines.
The writing on the wall for penalties related to rich snippets was back in October at Pubcon when Google's Matt Cutts talked about changes Google was planning in regards to rich snippets and dealing with related snippet spam.
Rich snippets could get a revamp and they will dial back on the number of websites that will be able to display rich snippets. "More reputable websites will get rich snippets while less reputable ones will see theirs removed," says Matt.
The new penalty seems to affect websites that are misusing rich snippets, such as including authorship on homepages and reviews on pages where there are no reviews. But there was evidence that Google was attempting to educate webmasters on how to use it correctly when they made changes in December to add debugging support for structured data.
If you're unclear if you're using rich snippets correctly, you should first check your Webmaster Tools account and see if there's any issues that show up, either as issues or in the structured data debugging area. Google also has the pretty significant help area for rich snippets, including with videos, to help webmasters implement structured data correctly.

Award winning editor of Holyrood magazine takes on a new role
Magazine editor Mandy Rhodes has been appointed managing director of Holyrood Communications.
Holyrood Communications was bought by Dods last December and Rhodes will now take charge of the company's operations north of the border, as well as continuing to edit the magazine.
She said: "I'm delighted to take on this exciting role, it's important at this particular time in our political debate that the company continues to have a strong voice based in Scotland."
Rhodes joined Holyrood nine years ago as editor of its flagship title, having worked for nearly 30 years in journalism in Scotland in newsprint, television and radio broadcasting and was part of the launch team of Scotland on Sunday.

Isner looms large
2013 was a big year for pro tennis player John Isner (M '07). In April he won the U.S. Men's Clay Court Championship (above), his sixth title. Three months later he won the BB&T Atlanta Open and appeared—naked—in ESPN The Magazine's Body Issue, an annual photo essay celebrating athletes' bodies. In August he reached the final of the Washington, D.C., Citi Open, where he lost to 2009 U.S. Open champion Juan Martin Del Potro. Two weeks later, Isner beat No. 1-ranked Novak Djokovic and Del Potro to reach the final of the Cincinnati-based Western & Southern Open, where he lost to No. 3-ranked Rafael Nadal. At the U.S. Open, Isner lost in the third round but donated 20 percent of his prize money to America's VetDogs, an organization that helps train canines for blind and disabled veterans.

Every parent wants the best for his or her child, and we all rely on schools to provide a solid foundation so students can learn how to make good decisions as adults. But good decisions are based on good information. Military recruiters have their own agenda for our children, and schools often passively adopt the recruiters' point of view. We cannot control the flow of misinformation that is sometimes provided to impressionable youths unless we are vigilant. Parents must defend their rights to protect their children.
Here are some resources for parents to help their kids make the right choices.

Counting the Costs of Collective Rights Management of Music Copyright in Europe
AbstractThe identification and clearance of music copyright is a complex process that suffers from high transaction costs when managed by individual rightsholders. The pooling of music copyright in collective rights management organizations has historically reduced these costs, while providing a larger, and thus more attractive, repertoire to commercial users via the issuance of blanket licenses.However, the development of digital distribution channels and automated clearance technologies for music copyright across multiple borders presents a number of challenges to the current system. As music consumption increasingly takes digital forms, Europe must modernize its collective rights management system in response. The results of this study show there is a very large market for digital music in Europe. As broadband penetration increases and competition amongst Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in Europe enhances access to the Internet, this market will grow rapidly. The market is valued at over 2.6 billion Euro in France, Germany and the UK alone. This constitutes a potential royalty market of 212 million Euro. Yet, only 49 million Euro in royalty revenue from online sources was collected by SACEM, GEMA and PRS for Music. Moreover, the majority of this revenue was collected by PRS for Music in the UK, which is the smallest of the three markets but by far the most efficient CRMO for the collection of royalties from online sources. Other nations in Europe, though significantly smaller, still represent a valuable market opportunity. The disparity between potential and actual revenue for all of the European markets suggests there are problems with the current collective rights management system. The percentage of the royalty market captured in the USA was over 4% more than the European average. New solutions should be sought to capitalize on the market opportunity of digital music services in light of increasing broadband penetration and changing consumer patterns in Europe. This should help unlock the potential of digital music markets, consolidate the single European market, increase competition in the administration of collective rights, and provide better services to European consumers.

If the cure for mortality is found within your lifetime, would you go for it and become immortal?
On the one hand, we're not made for eternal youth. And one could argue that knowing life is short (or just limited) is what makes it worth living. And perhaps death is a major spiritual part of life, whether you believe in a soul or in a metaphorical one.
On the other hand, how is aging yet not another disease? Dying at age 80 is no more a "natural" death than being eaten alive by a bear or killed by malaria. In fact, "old age" is probably the most unnatural cause of death, statistically. So all that's probably just a cultural habit : diseases are evil but aging is good. Another point is that, well, things have changed. Perhaps our new environment makes it suitable for immortal youths.
And of course, becoming immortal only means that you die when YOU chose to die.
So would you go for the injection or not, and how do you rationalize your decision?

Nov 18 2013: I would not take it. I imagine how stagnant people would become, me included, thinking they had forever to do something. This is not to say that I don't want a long life. Also, there's the well known argument that without death, there would be no reason to live, that I agree with. On a spiritual level.. I believe in God and life after death. I look at death as liberation of this form, of this type of intelligence. Furthermore, even if there wasn't any life (or sentience) after death you wouldn't really be missing anything.

In 2010, a group of maverick American infantry soldiers, battle weary after six long, hard months in Afghanistan, decided to abandon the rules of war and formed a "kill team" to murder and mutilate Afghan civilians, Rolling Stone magazine reports in a stunning, blockbuster story.
The kill team apparently operated while American Army officers, who knew of the team's activities, failed to stop them.
Reports Mark Boal of Rolling Stone:
Early last year, after six hard months soldiering in Afghanistan, a group of American infantrymen reached a momentous decision: It was finally time to kill a haji.
Among the men of Bravo Company, the notion of killing an Afghan civilian had been the subject of countless conversations, during lunchtime chats and late-night bull sessions. For weeks, they had weighed the ethics of bagging "savages" and debated the probability of getting caught. Some of them agonized over the idea; others were gung-ho from the start. But not long after the New Year, as winter descended on the arid plains of Kandahar Province, they agreed to stop talking and actually pull the trigger.

3 Responses to "American 'kill team' targeted, murdered Afghan civilians"
This morning on "Morning Joe" the editor from Rolling Stone reported on this situation. He had some photos but they were so terrible that Mika chose not to show them.
The wars in the Middle East are not being overseen by our Defense Department and we might as well simply hire "Rent-a-killer" from Blackwater. How much longer will the American people buy this attitude of saving lives by killing others? Humanitarian actions are no longer part of our federal government . There is no leadership except to kill and it has oozed down into the American voters. If it sounds familiar, take a look at the actions from the Templar Knights.
Thanks for the article Doug.
The DoD allowed torture in Iraq and Afghanistan. Obama has the pictures and was going to release them, then reportedly changed his mind after seeing them himself. I doubt he ever really would have released them as I was aware of their content. I warned as far back as 2005 that they were raping, scarring, drowning, and breaking the bones of men, women, and children as part of the "War on Terror."
Every step of the way, they have been overseeing the atrocities and even encouraging them. Junior Bush said he authorized it in his memoir.
Most Americans' minds won't let them deal with the truth of this matter. It's too heinous to think they could or would allow such things to occur. They did, they have, and they have worse planned for many of us in this country. They aren't training the First Brigade Combat Team of the Army's Third Division for civil unrest for no reason.
As the Allies advanced through Germany in 1945 they would gather German civilians from nearby towns and make them tour the death camps and view the horrors they allowed to take place in their name.
War in and of itself is an atrocity. Maybe the American people should be forced to see what's being done in their name. I wonder what would be the reaction if we were allowed to watch video of a torture session of some poor Afghan shepherd caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Maybe instead of movie previews in the local theater we do a slideshow of these tortue pictures and videos. Or a "haji" assassination. Or a mangled baby.
A little cattle prod action before the main attraction. Broken bones and broken faces. A little testicle electrocution and genital mutilation. A little battery acid anal rape? A little child torture?
Popcorn any one?

Biometrics are �measurable physical characteristics and personal behavioral traits that can be used to recognize the individual or verify the identity of an individual,� he said.
Among them are facial recognition, fingerprints, hand and finger geometry, iris scan, signature verification and speech recognition.
The DoD BMO opened in July 2000. One of its projects is to examine commercially made, off-the-shelf biometrics products and evaluate them for military use.
�We want to do whatever we can to provide positive proof of identification,� Bollig said.
Biometrics provides a higher degree of security than a password, which can be forgotten, or a key or card, which can be lost or stolen.
With the fingerprinting device, the computer took the print and graphed it with a series of dots that were transformed into a mathematical algorithm.
�It�s a template of certain points and the relationship between them,� Bollig said. �There�s no way to reconstruct them.�
The biometrics-technology industry is relatively young, and some challenges have arrived when researching the products available.
The commercial products have only been tested on small groups of people. Sometimes, the products come with documentation written in one language and operating systems in another.
When testing one product, BMO officials had to find a Japanese interpreter because all the documentation and the keyboard were in Japanese.
While it�s not a function of BMO to research and develop biometrics technology suited to military uses, officials there are finding that establishment of a research-and-development unit may be necessary. �Commercial products aren�t doing it,� Bollig said. �We need rugged devices for harsh environments.�
Ultimately, biometrics technology will find its way to the battlefield, where a soldier�s voice or fingerprint will become his password.
�By 2012, biometrics will be the universally empowering technology that ensures the right person with the right privileges has access at the right time to support warfighting,� Bollig said.

The Vanishing Rx Patient Assistance Programs?
By Guest Blogger | Published: November 6, 2013
by Tom Norton In the early 1990's, during the debate over the Clinton healthcare plan, I recall sitting in an interesting meeting at my pharma company headquarters. In response to the Clinton's charges that the industry was "price gouging," my firm was proposing that we provide free prescription products to any patients who could not […]

Why the Slow Take-up of Comparative Effectiveness Research? It's Time and Money, Says a New PCORI Survey
By Clark Herman | Published: July 16, 2013
Earlier this week, the federal government's Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) unveiled a new survey, revealing that both patients and clinicians want in health research to focus on one thing: improving outcomes. A panel of healthcare providers discussed how findings will impact the structure and content of comparative effectiveness research (CER), advocating patient-centric dissemination […]

Today's player is senior offensive tackle Zach Martin of Notre Dame. He is listed at 6-feet, 4-inches and weighs 305 pounds.
Let's take a look at his scouting profile via www.cbssports.com:
STRENGTHS: Very good at keeping his feet underneath him while keeping his butt low to handle both speed and power. He does play with gch Martinood quickness (but not explosiveness) off the snap, showing knee bend and core strength to anchor, as well as the lateral agility to mirror more athletic defenders. He also shows better athleticism than you might think when blocking on the move, demonstrating above average straight-line speed to get to the second level, as well as the nastiness to bury his target into the ground.
WEAKNESSES: With less than ideal length and lateral range, Martin's NFL future may lie inside at guard, where he never played in college. The move to guard is necessary because Martin does not possess great height, arm length or foot speed. He chucks his way back (rather than sliding) for an effective if not aesthetically-pleasing form of pass protection.
COMPARIES TO: Logan Mankins, OG, New England Patriots – Mankins has been one of the NFL's most valuable offensive linemen since being selected by New England in the first round of the 2005 draft, and has anchored the Patriots' front line with top-notch instincts, toughness and versatility despite lacking elite athleticism. Martin exhibits many of the same traits, and should draw first-round consideration.

Bourne's Back and Better in The Bourne Supremacy
- Thursday, July 22, 2004
Sets are an interesting part of this film, which begins on a beach in India (Goa, on the southwestern coast) and ends on the snowy streets of Moscow, by way of Berlin. The Moscow scenes were filmed in East Berlin, which resembles that Russian city due to its many years under communist leadership. Special experts were brought in for the many stunts that include a car barreling though the side of a bridge and plunging into murky water and a violent crash inside a tunnel. Damon, who did most of his own stunts, trained with a S.W.A.T. expert and had to learn to handle a barrage of weapons including a .38 Special, a 9mm Beretta and .308 rifle.
The pay-off is a suspense-filled, heart-pounding drama that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The action is far more realistic than the first Bourne, which was good, but which included cartoon-like "swish-swish" sounds every time Bourne fought someone, and which reminded me of the fake "click" my digital camera makes. There are also noticeably less obscenities and profanities in this sequel, and no sex scenes. Quick-cut editing and documentary-like cinematography, like the shaky hand-held shots used in Bloody Sunday, keep the film edgy and interesting.
All in all, a good film for adults who enjoy thrillers and who can handle the violence.
- Drugs/Alcohol Content: Several characters drink alcohol; brief smoking.
- Language/Profanity: A half-dozen mild obscenities and several profanities.
- Sexual Content/Nudity: Unmarried man and woman live and sleep together (fully clothed).
- Violence: Very graphic violence that includes guns and shooting; blood and serious injuries; car chases; property destruction; violent car crash; car plunges into lake, trapping people; woman drowns; fighting; hitting; stabbing; strangling; people shot at point-blank range; snipers poised to kill; government employees instructed to kill; government leaders kill; man commits suicide with gun.

Are you a TV Fanatic?

Well having sex with everyone CAN be a character trait and something that explores the character, but last timeI saw that being used was with a character who spent her ~20+ years of her life accidentally(or not) murdering people and generally was a very extravagant and unpredictable person.
And last time I checked neither Caroline nor Elena were doing that.
But let's be honest Caroline's version of fun is throwing a party and hanging with her friends. She's isn't the partier like Damon or Katherine. Yeah she's fun and bubbly but she's isn't going to go on a would blood sucking killing spree anytime soon. You get upset at forwood fans for liking there ship for whatever reasons they like it. But nobody should be upset at you liking a very twisted twisted relationship? Plus you say Caroline would be stuck in a teenage relationship? Will eventually they'll get older and they will not be teenagers mentally.
Caroline is the brightest and most honest sides of Cordelia, basically.
There is a difference between exploring the freedom life has to offer and being promiscuous (or going on a "blood sucking spree").
And honestly, society is not screwed up because women are having lots more sex. People are just annoyed that after eons of being a cheerleader to whomever they're owned by, women are finally learning how to be more selfish. Basically there are some women who still don't understand that they're being oppressed (by stupid ideals of chastity etc), and some men who would like to keep their power. Women need to be centred around themselves more. its not a bad thing to try and make yourself happy instead of constantly looking for that happiness in whatever 'forever ILY' walks into your life.
I get so annoyed when some say that just because a good guy walks into your life you have to make your life all about him. And that's what Caroline did with Tyler. Annoying.
You get upset at forwood fans for liking there ship for whatever reasons they like itI don't get upset at fans for liking Forwood. I get upset when they say Caroline has to be with Tyler and no one else because TC is the only stable couple on the show. So because they want stability Forwood can't break up? That's fucking selfish. they will not be teenagers mentally Tyler will always be a teenager mentally. He's a mixed of Kris Humphries and Ryan Lochte.
I get so annoyed when some say that just because a good guy walks into your life you have to make your life all about him. And that's what Caroline did with Tyler. Annoying.
Exactly. Like just because Tyler broke his bones to break the sire bond and said he'll be Klaus' slave forever to save Caroline that Caroline owes him her loyalty for eternity. "Like omg how can Caroline even think of kissing Klaus after what Tyler had been through for her omgz." Tyler can sacrifice his limbs for Caroline and I think Forwood is boring as hell and I will never ship it. Nope. Not at all.
Good for you Nic. But that's your opinion and like always you try to shove it down everyone's throats. I thinks fans think the show lacks the teenage couple in a teenage vampire show. Now the show lacks a lot more teenagers and they might as well just blow up the school and forget there teenagers.
@charishma actually women having more sex isn't a really good thing for society. Women actually had more control when they actually waited to have sex with someone before marriage. The man would stay interested and keep pursing her because she didn't give it up right away. Plus if anyone of you had kids you would tell them to wait for the right one. That's the end of my moral talk. Lol
good grief. are you kidding me? and its in a woman's best interest to keep a man pursing her for her cookie, because?? That should be the sole goal in life or something??? Is there not anything else she has of worth and value? Is her vagina her sole source of respect and admiration??
there's waiting for the right one (which I 100% believe in btw. Your first experience should be a loving one). And then there's communicating to your child that their self-worth emanates from and ends at their privates. Sex is important. Its important to have a positive relationship with sex and love. But preaching promiscuity and preaching complete abstinence can have the same effect. A negative one. It teaches them all the wrong things about what to look for in a relationship, who to look for, and what their worth lies in. Which is their heart and mind btw.
Woman having sex is a great thing for society, because its teaching others that they can't be boxed in and told what to do. Women and men can do whatever the hell they want, as long as they're not hurting anyone. Use protection and don't be self-destructive. other than that, have at it.
please tell me you're trolling me. please.
Unforunetly sex does hurt people now a days because most of society isn't responsible when it comes to having sex. The amounts of stds and let not forget HIV has grown over the last 30 years because we've become more free sexually.
Woman having sex is a great thing for society, because its teaching others that they can't be boxed in and told what to do Huh? Choices give you freedom not sex. Sex doesn't determine who you are character determines who you are.

Mr. Hawkins, I have one more suggestion to add to your 7: No more Baby Boomer candidates for President from the Republican Party. We need to put up one of the great younger Republican governors or experienced representatives/senators. The younger electorate is obviously energized, and Baby Boomers seem to be running out of steam. Plus, a younger candidate will not have any of the homophobic, racist baggage, however unfair, that seems to attach to older Republican candidates.

In December, 33-year-old Manhattan attorney Pamela Bradshaw left law-firm lifeand its accompanying staid wardrobeto join Kurron Capital, a private equity company. As general counsel and partner at Kurron, the graduate of Brown University and Harvard Law now divides her days between a full legal loadprimarily drafting documents and handling contractsand the demands of business development, including plenty of after-hours networking. Her day-to-night schedule calls for "sleek, feminine" silhouettes, she says, and a rotation of textured, mostly black sheaths by D&G and Diane von Furstenberg, high-waisted trousers and tailored jackets by Theory, and statement heels from Stella McCartney and Balenciaga. On weekends, when Bradshaw isn't volunteering at New York Needs You, a nonprofit that mentors first-generation college graduates, her style veers distinctly downtown. "Off-duty means leggings and a big cashmere sweater at [West Village restaurant] Little Branch," she says. "And, depending on what kind of week I've had, maybe my thigh-high boots!"

text: From visionary writer/director Kirk De Micco, the fluff-meister behind kiddie-fare like Casper's Scare School and Peter Cottontail: The Movie, comes this relentlessly giddy CG 'toon about a Simian space shuttle crew led by reluctant hero Ham III (SNL rubberface Andy Samberg), a goofball known more for his banana peel gags than his navigational skills. But when an opportunistic senator (Stanley Tucci) sends Ham and his crew to search for life on a savage planet a wormhole away, the chimps get serious. Well, as serious as cartoon monkeys can get, anyway. Space Chimps tries to please both kids and parents with a queasy mix of rapid-fire, Looney Tunes-y slapstick and sly pop culture references, but the surprisingly flat animation and tired jokes keep it from ever leaving orbit.

Mississippi Vacation Home Rentals(201)

Quiet Getaway
We like to explore different beach area homes each summer and came upon this one directly on the beach. We loved hearing the waves hitting the sand and enjoyed walks on the long, private beach. We do not fish, but our son enjoyed catching hermit crabs and watching the minnows from the pier. In the mornings we would sun ourselves, go in for lunch and enjoy dinners in the house or in the area. We took an eco motor boat tour and were able to see several alligators, birds, and plants indigenous to the area. We appreciated the privacy and quiet, but met other travelers who were staying in nearby homes. We took some beautiful pictures of sunsets, pelicans flying over the water, and beach fun. It was a nice, relaxing week!
Return Customer
We've stayed at the "New Getaway" twice. Lynn and Warren are very accommodating and went out of their way to meet their visitors needs. The homes are spacious and comfortable. The pools (2) are practically private and the docks are well maintained. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe as well as the park at the end of the street where we found our selves watching birds and just taking the time to slow down. Make sure you visit Triplett drug store in Gulfport for the best Beignets on the Ms. Gulf Coast for breakfast. Darwell's Cafe, from the show DDD's in Long Beach is worth the stop. And Shaggy's in the Pass has great atmosphere for dinner and drinks.
Great Pick!!!!
The home and location was just what the doctor ordered. Brought the boat for some great fishing and skiiing with the family. Mr. Warren and Ms. Lynn went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. There was only one glitch with the internet at the house was not operational. I would highly recommend this as a vacation spot and will be back next year. I also recommend his other homes. We actually rented both the Sunset and View for the weekend and had the whole family up. The experience was much better than just getting a condo. Dan (Maintenance) was there everyday to check on the pool and facilities. He is also an excellent mechanic and had to do some work on my vehicle while we were there. He picked it up and brought it back repaired and was very reasonably priced. Thanks again Mr. Warren and Dan for all your help.

Here is a brand new video for "Large" from the recently released album, Other Worlds. Directed by Ariel Rechtshaid (Solange, Blood Orange, Usher), the video was shot entirely on an iPhone.
Rechtshaid waxes poetic on the process of creating the video with Victoria Bergsman:
I used to live in downtown L.A.
I'd spend many hours alone in some of these places.
I have intense associations to a different time in my life when I visit these places.
I wanted to catch the vibe of reflecting on these feelings.
Vicky B is new to LA. She's just discovering these places.
We found a dope band playing in the lobby of the Bonaventure.
They felt the vibe.
We took it back to EPA and the LA river.
It gets hectic on EPA.
Vicky reps West Coast well.
Can I get some free Apple shit for doing this?

Liza's Life Rules #5: Just breathe.
There is nothing that is not made better by taking a deep breath.
Is something stressing you out? Take a deep breath and come back to your center. Experiencing something overwhelmingly beautiful? Take a deep breath and experience it more deeply.
When we meditate or do yoga, we're always coming back to the breath. Without breath, we're nothing; without breath we die… breath is literally our life force. If we're blessed enough to have the ability to take a deep breath, you have access to the cheapest stress reducer out there. In a matter of seconds we can cleanse ourselves, connect with our life force, and slow our heart rate down. Stress is a killer. And we can mitigate our own stress levels by remembering to breathe. When we're stressed, the single best thing we can do is to take a deep breath.
Taking a deep breath is free, and takes virtually no time at all. You can do it anywhere, at any time. You can do it in secret. You can do it a hundred times a day.
If you sit on the mediation cushion, it is literally all you have to do. Just breathe. But you don't have to be meditating. You can be stuck in traffic or on a crowded elevator or making dinner or about to say something horrible to someone. Just breathe.
You don't have to control your breath or analyze your breath or chastise yourself for not breathing deeper. All you have to do is breathe.
Do it now; put your hand on your beautiful belly and take the deepest breath of the day, fill your lungs and your heart and your belly up with the biggest breath of you can muster. It feels amazing, doesn't it?
It's not always so simple. Often times we close off our bodies to our breath. We take quick, shallow breaths or hold our breaths or breathe out more than we breathe in. But we can always give ourselves the gift of taking a deep breath. And we can often give ourselves the gift of closing our eyes and taking several deep breaths in a row.
I forget all the time. It's why I have this simple reminder tattooed on the hidden inside of my right arm. Just breathe.
The next time you feel stressed out, or overwhelmed, or happy or sad or scared, just breathe. And you can start with right now.
ps You can see the other rules here.
Do one thing each day that scares you: check. (at Trapeze School New York)

Liza's Life Rules #2: Never don't buy shoes.
Never don't buy shoes.
This rule is completely and totally literal. But it's also a metaphor.
I love shoes. To be more honest, I adore shoes. When I am stressed out, I soothe myself by scrolling through pictures of shoes online. ShopBop, Net-a-Porter, Bergdorfs, Lyst: all fair game. (Barneys would be too, if their website wasn't the worst thing to happen to the internet since Netscape.)
See, isn't that soothing?
My favorite shoes are the ones I can barely wear. I nickname my shoes. Those beautiful green Alexander McQueen mohawk skull pumps in the top picture are called Lee.
My biggest superficial regrets in life are when I have passed up on shoes that I love. Here's the thing about shoes: you can always return them (or sell them on Poshmark or Material Wrld) but you can't buy shoes that have sold out.
Here are some cage YSL shoes that haunt me:
What do you love? Black & white photos of cityscapes in winter time? Little wooden figurines of turtles? Gelato melting down your chin on a scorching summer day?
Here's the metaphor: know what you really love. Know what makes you feel good deep down inside. And treat yourself to it! I promise: you deserve that thing that makes you feel good.
Once Cyndi Ramirez and I went on a 3-day trip together, and this is what our hotel room looked like! She loves shoes, too.
ps You can read the rest of the rules here.

The call for Albemarle County Supervisor Chris Dumler to resign is gaining support from yet another group. The Jefferson Area Tea Party (JATP) says Dumler needs to step down after being convicted of a sex crime.
The conservative group released a statement Monday morning calling for Dumler to step down from his spot on the Board of Supervisors immediately. The JATP says it would be the "honorable" thing for Dumler to do. Read the full statement below.
Last month, Dumler pleaded guilty to misdemeanor sexual battery. His guilty plea was part of an agreement with prosecutors to drop a felony forcible sodomy charge and not pursue charges for two additional alleged victims.
In its request for Dumler's resignation, the JATP claims voters in the Scottsville District are avoiding contact with Dumler because they feel frightened or intimidated.
"If they need to be spending time listening to and meeting with their constituents, why should Mr. Dumler get a free pass on allowing them to carry his burden? So, it's a distraction," said Helen Swift-Dovel, chairwoman of the JATP.
Swift-Dovel says Dumler's decision to stay on the board is a waste of taxpayer's money if supervisors can't be as efficient and effective due to the distraction.
The JATP is not alone in urging Dumler to step down. The Sexual Assault Resource Agency says his crime violates the community's trust and he should resign.
Dumler is expected to report to jail March 8 to begin serving weekend time for his 30-day sentence.
JATP statement on request for Chris Dumler to resign:
The Jefferson Area Tea Party (JATP) joins many other community entities, including the Sexual Assault Resource Agency (SARA) and the Charlottesville Daily Progress, in calling on Chris Dumler to do the honorable thing and step down from his position on the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors.
We withheld commenting on his felony charge of forced sodomy until the criminal process was completed. Mr. Dumler ultimately pled guilty to the reduced charge of sexual battery and his plea agreement with the Commonwealth enabled him to avoid potential criminal charges on two additional cases alleging criminal sexual misconduct.
Many voters in Mr. Dumler's district who now feel frightened or intimidated are without representation because they are avoiding contact with him. If constituents cannot or will not meet with Mr. Dumler on issues of county business because he has entered a guilty plea to a criminal sexual offense, then he cannot fulfill the obligations of his position to his constituents. Instead of being forced to conduct business with Mr. Dumler many constituents have chosen to contact supervisors from other districts, which has had a disruptive effect on the Board's ability to do its work. These Scottsville District voters have expressed to the other supervisors both their discomfort with having any further contact with him and/or concerns that contact would appear to be a tacit acceptance of his behavior.
Samuel Adams said, "Nothing is more essential to the establishment of manners in a State than that all persons employed in places of power and trust be men of unexceptionable character. The public cannot be too curious concerning the character of public men." Community leaders and elected officials should embody the best qualities of the constituents they represent, not the worst. Over time if we fail to respond appropriately to a lack of decency found in, or at the extreme, criminality displayed by our leaders and public officials, these lower standards will become our own. Do we really want this behavior to become the acceptable norm for our community, and more importantly for our children?
In summary, we believe Mr. Dumler's admission of, and conviction of, criminal sexual misconduct materially and adversely affects his ability to govern effectively and have become an unnecessary disruption to the electorate's ability to interact and conduct essential business with the Board of Supervisors. We therefore urge Mr. Dumler to step down immediately.

What kind of world will another century bring? History teaches that humans will become much better at meeting both their basic needs and higher aspirations. People may reach across frontiers of time and space more vast than their ancestors dared dream.
The first generation that will see the 22nd century is already here. They are our young children. Among them are individuals who may see the 23rd century and beyond; people who will one day walk under strange stars and skies; people whose lives and worlds will grow beyond the imagination of science fiction.
The last generation to fall short of future centuries might not have to. All revolutions begin with a small group and a new idea. At Alcor we have an idea that may be more revolutionary than any ever before it. That idea is:
If humanity can survive long-term, then so can we.
"It is possible to believe that all the past is but the beginning of a beginning,
and that all that is and has been is but the twilight of the dawn. It is possible
to believe that all that the human mind has ever accomplished is but the dream
before the awakening.... All this world is heavy with the promise of greater
things, and a day will come, one day in the unending succession of days, when
beings, beings who are now latent in our thoughts and hidden in our loins, shall
stand upon this earth as one stands upon a footstool, and shall laugh and reach
out their hands amidst the stars."
— H. G. Wells, 1902, "The Discovery of the Future," Nature, 65, p. 326-331.

Winona State Stops Augustana's Title Run At The NSIC Tournament
SIOUX FALLS, SD — Augustana College, the No. 3 seed in the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference Softball Tournament, came up short in its attempt at a clean sweep on Saturday. No. 2 Winona State stayed alive with a 5-0 win over the Vikings to force a second championship game. The Warriors (46-7) came out on top 3-1 in the second game to win the tournament.
Winona State lost its opening round game of the NSIC Tournament but came all the way back to win six straight games, including four straight on Saturday, to win the tournament.
No. 25 Augustana (43-13) was seeking its second NSIC Tournament title since joining the league in 2009 and found itself in the championship game of the conference tournament for the fourth time since 2010.
Augustana entered the week ranked fourth in the NCAA Central Region while Winona State was the No. 1 team in the latest set of regional rankings. The top eight teams in each region will advance to the NCAA Tournament, with the top two seeds in each region hosting a Super Regional.
The NCAA Division II Softball Selection Show will air via webcast at NCAA.com on Monday at 9 a.m. Automatic bids will be awarded to the conference tournament winners from the NSIC, MIAA and the GAC with the final five spots awarded on an at-large basis.
Winona State's Ashley Walker (18-4) held Augustana hitless through 6.2 innings to earn her 18th win of the season in the circle. Offensively, Augustana could not find any green all game as the Vikings squared-up numerous pitches and hit them right at Winona State defenders.
The Warriors used a four-run bottom of the third inning to help down the Vikings. Winona State plated four unearned runs in the inning to take a 4-0 lead with the big blow coming on a two-out two-run home run by Jenny Nelson. Nelson finished the game 1 for 3 with two RBI and a run scored.
Jenelle Trautmann (26-6) tossed 4.1 innings for the Vikings and was equally as tough in the circle for the Vikings. Trautmann allowed five runs, all unearned, on just three hits while striking out three batters.
The Warriors added a run in the bottom of the fifth inning when Shannon Nelson scored on a passed ball giving Winona State a 5-0 lead.
The Vikings got a threat going in the top of the sixth inning when Caitlin Nichol was hit by a pitch with one out in the inning. Mackenzie Alstott moved Nichol up to second on a sacrifice bunt and Sarah Kennedy picked up what looked to be an RBI single but Nichol was called out in the base path for interference after running into a Winona State fielder ending the threat.
Carly Peterson got a two-out double in the top of the seventh inning but it would not be enough as the Vikings would fall and have to play a second game against the Warriors.
Winona State's Hanna Lythberg struck out eight batters and allowed just one run on four hits to help the Warriors to the NSIC Tournament title in game two.
The Warriors finished the second game with eight hits, including two from Ashley Walker and Jenny Nelson. Nelson picked up her second home run of the day, another two-run shot that gave her team an early lead.
Nichol drove in Augustana's only run of the game and had two of the Vikings' four hits going 2 for 3 with an RBI double. Carley Pickett (15-6) was strong on the mound for the Vikings, striking out seven batters and allowing just three runs on eight hits.
Winona State took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning on a two-run home run by Nelson. Pickett started off the inning with two straight strikeouts but after a walk Nelson was able to break through with a two-run shot.
The Vikings put two runners on in the top of the third inning after a two-out single by Nichol and Alstott getting hit by a pitch but the Warriors were able to strand both runners.
Winona State threatened in the bottom of the third getting three straight singles with one out but Pickett got the last two batters on a strikeout and a fly out.
After a quick fourth inning where both teams went down in order, the Vikings got another big two-out hit from Nichol to cut Winona State's lead in half. Erin Kempf started the rally by beating out an infield single and later stole second base to get into scoring position. Nichol then sent an RBI double to left field to make the score 2-1.
Winona State answered right back in the bottom of the fifth to go back up by two runs when Ashley Walker delivered an RBI single with two outs to put the Warriors up 3-1.
Augustana got a runner on in the top of the seventh inning when Jordan Schaffer was hit by a pitch but was unable to move the runner past third base watching its tournament title hopes come to an end.
Augustana's Jenelle Trautmann, Caitlin Nichol and Sarah Kennedy were all named to the 2014 NSIC Softball All-Tournament team.

It starts with recruiters who aren't very knowledgeable about the assignments. Then comes their lack of responsiveness unless they drop the ball and are under the gun. Finally there is no real support or interactions once you are on assignment. Don't expect any active engagement to proactively find a new assignment when the current once is closing. It's doubtful that they know or even care.Advice to ManagementAdvice

Three hours to film... two minutes to watchWe are very excited about our new music video. It was created from a continuous 3-hour shot, that was then time-compressed into 2 minutes. The result is something like stop-motion animation achieved through time-lapse photography. There were lots of planning and mathematical calculations involved. Notice how the Colonel's mouth is synchronized with the words! Big thanks to Missy, Alicia, and the Village At Leesburg for their help. We hope you enjoy watching!
As usual, we have lots of public performances this month. Check our calendar for details.

Ragnarok vs FarustoDeep within the sailing deserts of the Sands of Power stood two warriors, both of considerable power. Both clenched their fists and stared intensely at one another. Farusto the draconian God of Warriors. Sheathed by his side was his stunningly powerful No-Dochi, a two-handed sword with a single frightening edge. Draped in samurai armor he stretched his massive scaled wings. With a toothy grin he called out to his opponent: Ragnarok.

Treatment Completion
Median Length of Stay (LOS)
Client Characteristics Associated with Treatment Completion or Transfer to Further Treatment
This report presents results from the Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS) for clients discharged from substance abuse treatment in 2004. The report provides information on treatment completion, length of stay in treatment, and demographic and substance abuse characteristics of approximately 1,000,000 discharges from alcohol or drug treatment in facilities that report to individual State administrative data systems.
The TEDS Discharge Data System was designed to enable TEDS to collect information on entire treatment episodes. States are asked to submit data for all discharges from substance abuse treatment. Discharge data, when linked to admissions data, represent treatment episodes that enable analyses of questions that cannot be answered with admissions data alone (e.g., the proportion of discharges who completed treatment and the average length of stay of treatment completers).
TEDS is an admission-based system, and TEDS admissions do not represent individuals. Thus, for example, an individual admitted to treatment twice within a calendar year would be counted as two admissions.
TEDS does not include all admissions to substance abuse treatment. It includes data from facilities that are licensed or certified by the State substance abuse agency to provide substance abuse treatment (or are administratively tracked for other reasons). In general, facilities reporting TEDS data are those that receive State alcohol and/or drug agency funds (including Federal Block Grant funds) for the provision of alcohol and/or drug treatment services.

The finger pointing continues. Following what looks to be the final bout of a Hall of Fame career, everyone who contributed to B.J. Penn's bizarre performance against Frankie Edgar in July has looked to distance themselves as much as possible. While Penn's altered striking style was blamed (perhaps unjustly so) on longtime trainer Jason Parillo, Penn has been critical of nutritionist Mike Dolce. After saying in August that he regretted ever hiring Dolce to help make the drop to featherweight, Pe read news >>
Former UFC lightweight champion, B.J. Penn responds to Mike Dolce's claims that improper training may have led to his loss against Frankie Edgar. UFC every-weight, B.J. Penn is still making waves in the MMA world months after his retirement. Just in case you aren't up on the latest news, Penn made the declaration that he would never seek out nutrition coach, Mike Dolce's services again after working with him to make his first official cut to 145 in preparation for his fight with Frankie Edgar. A read news >>
BJ "The Prodigy" Penn will not be calling up Mike Dolce for nutrition advice anytime soon. And even if he did, according to Penn, Dolce probably wouldn't answer his call. In a recent interview with BJPenn.com, The Prodigy opened up, detailing his issues with the creator of The Dolce Diet. "I figured that paying this guy $1,000 a day, I could just focus on the fight, and Dolce would focus on the food and weight cut," Penn said. "But I guess that was my job to focus on the food, and my weight, and read news >>
Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) two-division titleholder, BJ Penn, retired from mixed martial arts (MMA) last July, following a technical knockout loss to Frankie Edgar, which marked the Hawaiian's 145-pound debut. To help him reach his new weight class, "The Prodigy" hired famed weight-cutting expert Mike Dolce. But from what he told BJPenn.com, it sounds like a case of buyer's remorse. "I hadn't been to 145 (pounds) in 18 years and that cut was intimidating. I wanted to get it righ read news >>
Diet and nutrition guru, Mike Dolce has finally given his accounting of working with B.J. Penn and why he felt B.J. might have performed so poorly against Frankie Edgar. Shortly after B.J. Penn's last fight, he informed the media that he would "never hire Mike Dolce for anything again." Dolce had been hired by the Prodigy to assist him in his first cut down to 145 in preparation for his fight with Frankie Edgar (fight took place 7/6/2014), and leading up to the fight, all seemed to be running sm read news >>
The cat, as they say, is out of the bag. B.J. Penn recently came out and said that he "would never hire Mike Dolce for anything again." Dolce, a man who has made a name for himself for helping top mixed martial arts (MMA) fighters make weight for their fights, assisted "The Prodigy" in his cut down to 145-pounds for his featherweight bout against Frankie Edgar, which went down at The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 19 Finale on July 6, 2014 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Though Penn never clarified why he put Dol read news >>
B.J. Penn is retired from MMA, but still, conversations regarding his pre-fight preparations refuse to die, particularly after an all-time worst performance in his final bout. Filed under: News, UFC read news >>
In a candid interview with his own website, former UFC welterweight and lightweight champion B.J. Penn discussed his troubling performance against Frankie Edgar at The Ultimate Fighter 19 Finale in July and hinted at issues with nutritionist and weight cut guru Mike Dolce. "I keep going back about a lot of things," said Penn. "Was it even smart to go down to 145 pounds in the first place? Were you going to have the energy all sucked out, you know? I haven't been to 145 in about 18 years but besi read news >>
This, despite the fact that Dolce helped "The Prodigy" make a successful weight cut down to the featherweight division. B.J. Penn decided to call it quits (this time for real) following a third round technical knockout loss to Frankie Edgar in the main event of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 19 Finale, which took place on July 6, 2014, inside Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. Watch video highlights here. It was an unceremonious return to mixed martial arts (MMA) action after two years read news >>
Former UFC champion BJ "The Prodigy" Penn lost to Frankie Edgar at The Ultimate Fighter 19 finale one month ago today, Aug. 6, and the Hawaiian superstar promptly retired from the sport after the bout. In a recent interview with BJPenn.com, Penn talked about his fight with Edgar, his decision to drop to featherweight for the fight at The Ultimate Fighter 19 finale and his stylistic changes for the bout. Speaking about the fight itself, Penn gave no clues as to why he performed poorly, instead ch read news >>
Following his most recent loss, BJ Penn gave his thoughts, on fighting Frankie Edgar, cutting to 145, and working with Mike Dolce. It sounds like BJ Penn is pretty content in his retirement. His last fight may not have gone the way he wanted it to, but he's hardly itching to get back in the cage. Or at least that's the way it comes across in his recent interview with BJPENN.com. Penn last fought in July as the headliner of the TUF 19 finale, where he took a two round beating from Frankie Edgar b read news >>

"Oh no! Frankie's mad! Boo Hoo! Oh grow up! The only reason you can't make friends is because you're so weird."
Lunch was in 30 minutes and that's when I realized I didn't have a locker to put my stuff in, Brandon was still talking to me, I gave up trying to listen and just nodded a few times here and there to keep the impression that I was actually listening. Ivan knew I wasn't listening I could tell by the disapproving look he kept giving me. Honestly I don't care if he thinks I'm rude, he can think anything and I just wouldn't care anymore. I would ask either one of them to let me put my stuff in their locker but I don't want to talk to them more than necessary. I'll just ask the teacher if I can go to the office in a few minutes.
See problem resolved.
If you weren't such a dick to everyone then maybe they would go with you.
I don't need anyone. I'm fine by myself. I'm perfectly capable of just going on my own, I mean it's not like I'm some five year old.
Sure you're not.
Fuck you. I really am not in the mood for this.
Oh no! Frankie's mad! Boo Hoo! Oh grow up! The only reason you can't make friends is because you're so weird. If you would try to get along with people then maybe you would have friends. I mean these guys like the same music as you but do you care? No you don't! You never give anyone a chance to talk to you! You just shut them out as soon as you meet them! And then you go and complain about how no one likes you! Whose fault might that be?
I raised my hand immediately, probably surprising Brandon while he continued to talk.
"Yes Mr. Iero?" the teacher asked.
"Can I go to the office, I just remembered some things that I need since today's my first day."
The teacher sighed "Fine, go, but don't take too long."
"Okay thank you ma'am."
I stood up and walked to the office.
The hall was quiet, really quiet compared to the class, the only sounds were some muffled laughter from classrooms and the occasional squeak of my shoes.
I saw the sing that said "Main Office" in big shiny letters like it was a happy place or something. Some woman was sitting in the front with a tight bun, black loose button up shirt and red lipstick on.
"Hello there!" She smiled.
"Uh yeah hey, I didn't get my locker number and combination so I was wondering if you could give it to me?"
"Sure sweetie, what's your name?"
"Frank Iero." I answered.
"Okay let's see, well sorry but it seems you don't get one."
"What the hell do you mean I don't get a locker?" I yelled at her.
She gasped" young man watch your language!"
I rolled my eyes, "I'm sorry but what is this about me not getting a locker, where the he- where am I supposed to put my books and shit?"
"Well if you had come when you are supposed to, in the beginning of the year, you would have one."
"I'm sorry I can't please everyone, bitch." I sighed and walked out of the office.
I dragged my feet down the hall. Walking very slowly, I mean I was excused so I can take as long as I want.
"Hey there!" Someone said.
I turned around and saw the familiar face of the guy I ran into. "Oh hey there! Um..."
"Gerard." He stated with a nod of his head.
"Oh um okay hey there Gerard."
"Mind if I walk with you?" He asked.
"Why?" I stopped walking.
"You seem lonely." He answered
"Not lonely. Just annoyed."
"I don't get a locker 'cause I came in late during the school year."
"Well I could let you borrow mine? I don't use it very much and it seems you need it more than I do."
"Oh my hero." I said sarcastically, rolling my eyes.
"Hey I'm just offering, don't want it, then don't take it." He smirked.
"Okay well thanks but no thanks, I'm fine." I sighed and picked up my pace, I really don't want to talk to this kid right now.
"Well okay then, s-"
"Why are you talking to me again? I mean last time I checked we weren't best friends, we weren't anything, so why are you speaking to me? All I want to do is just walk, alone, in peace, with no one, and especially not some weird stalker who keeps finding me and trying to talk to me." I stopped walking and looked at him.
"Jesus someone has a temper, fine, I won't talk to you, happy?" he turned around and walked away still facing me.
"Who the hell do you think you are? I don't fucking know you, I'm not just going to start fucking talking to you, you're a fucking stranger." I whispered to myself as I continued to walk down the hall.
I was nearing the class when the bell rang signaling it was lunch.
I turned around and quickly walked towards the restroom where I could hide, at least for the time being.
How lovely Frank, you're hiding in a fucking restroom.
Hey it beats the alternative of actually talking to people.
You've hit rock bottom seriously, has your antisocialness really driven you to this?
… You make it seem like I have an option.
You do, you could go out there and spend time with people.
I began laughing because seriously what the hell is my other self thinking?
Another A/N: reviews would be greatly appreciated...
