A couple of weeks ago, we asked you to be the judge(s): Was LA-based singer-songwriter Javier Dunn's "Couple Of Drinks" worth writing home about?
As it turned out, the answer was a resounding yes! And so, we're making good on the promise to deliver more Dunn with the video premiere for "Couple Of Drinks."
The shadowy clip for "Couple Of Drinks," the lead single from Dunn's debut Trails (which was just released yesterday!), sees the singer working his way through a crowded club while crooning his melancholy, bleary-eyed tune.
He's no fan of the scene — that is, until he catches sight of someone special and begins contemplating his next move. After some more cramped shuffling through the hallways (and a brief, totally casual jam session on stage — a nice preview of his upcoming album release performance tonight at Hotel Cafe), he's got his sights locked once again on his lady friend. Will it all work out in the end, or will he only be shuffled away in the chaotic club scene?
We won't spoil it. You've got to watch up above to find out — and make sure to check out Trails, out now on iTunes.

A patient Moose is a better Moose -- by far
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- All you had to do was observe the game Royals third baseman Mike Moustakas had Wednesday night to recognize why the team's front office is so reluctant to give up on him.

Customer Relations is a top priority at Houston's Airports. We not only care about what happens at our airports, we also care about the future of aviation and reach out to schools to educate children at career days and offer tours of various aviation facilities.
Education Outreach
It is the goal of Customer Relations to support the youth via career day activities and academic development programs within the surrounding school districts. The core of the education outreach program is to enthusiastically participate in Houston-area schools' career days as well area universities mentoring students and participating in activities to introduce students to the field of aviation. The program strongly encourages teachers and school officials to contact the Customer Relations team with ideas and suggestions in order to support their educational goals. Conducted as a comprehensive outreach effort, the program provides the Houston Airport System the opportunity to introduce the field of aviation, the overall concept of the operations of an airport, differences in various operators on-airport and off-airport, and the field of aerospace to students from the ages of kindergarten through grade 12 while also encouraging them to stay in school and pursue higher education.
Career Days/School Fairs
HAS Customer Relations play an active and important role in enhancing the educational process for students of different facets while also introducing them to different professional opportunities for the future.
Airport Tours

Measurement error and imputation of consumption in survey data
AbstractWe study how estimators used to impute consumption in survey data are inconsistent due to measurement error in consumption. Previous research suggests instrumenting consumption to overcome this problem. We show that, if additional regressors are present in the estimation, then instrumenting consumption may still produce inconsistent estimators. This inconsistency arises from the likely correlation between those additional regressors and the measurement error, a correlation not directly observable. We propose an additional condition to be satisfied by the instrument that reduces and even eliminates measurement error bias in the presence of additional regressors. This condition is directly observable in the data.

A three-star Michelin restaurant nestled in the California Napa Valley, The French Laundry is America's finest gastronomic destination and its cookbook is the chefs' essential. For us it's a coffee table collection of impossibly beautiful recipes (see the lobster consommé) and location shots that will have you flying to San Francisco.

Nigel Slater's sixth book, which accompanied his cult late Nineties TV show of the same name, is our favourite dinner party recipe book. His real style of cooking – using ingredients we've heard of, failsafe recipes and familiar techniques – makes Slater stand out from the rest. Plus, the way he writes about food can't help but get you excited about cooking. Go straight to page 223 to make the leek and taleggio risotto, then tackle the more complex recipes like chicken with vermouth, tarragon and cream. The croissants with caramelised apples and ice cream is one of most satisfying desserts we've ever made.

This was Jamie's first book, the one he wrote before he became a social crusader. It was an instant bestseller and the recipes haven't dated one bit. Every recipe is spot on, there's an incredibly useful basics list for your larder, a chapter on how to grow fresh herbs plus each section starts with really useful tips. The best part though, is Jamie's philosophy – his laid-back approach encourages you to experiment rather than stick to recipes and he makes potentially boring food – like salads and veggies – totally exciting. Globe artichoke and celery heart salad with parmesan, lemon and olive oil, anyone?

Mark Hix, owner and chef of the Hix Oyster & Chop House told Stylist that it was "the most comprehensive meat book around which tells you everything you need to know" such as how to work out the cooking time for any cut of meat. The book includes 150 home-tested recipes ranging from shepherd's pie and the perfect crackling to delicious medium-rare steaks.

One of the most prolific food writers of the Fifties, David wrote for Vogue and The Sunday Times, and penned eight cooking titles, which have sold more than 1.4 million copies worldwide. John Torode said he loves Summer Cooking because "she talked about food, not just as recipes, but as ideas". There are no pictures, just tons of information on everything from herbs to summer soups. It's the sections on 'improvised cooking for holidays and weekends' and 'picnics' though that show David understood cooking. Even 60 years after her books were written, it's like she's talking directly to you.

Skye Gyngell, head chef at the Michelin-starred Petersham Nurseries called this book an "inspiration". It takes you through a year spent on the East End allotment of the husband-and-wife team behind cult London tapas restaurant Moro. Moro East focuses on Mediterranean-cum-Arabic small plates. In addition to the fantastic mix of recipes (the spring vegetable pilav as well as recipes for harissa and almond alioli) are amazing and really useful for last-minute dinners, this book also doubles up as a handy guide for how to grow your own and is a must for anyone wanting to eat seasonal produce.

This weighty gastronomic anthology, compiled by 62 experts in French cuisine, details everything you'll ever need to know about classic French cooking – the basis for all great food. Heston Blumenthal called it "the definitive culinary reference bible" and Sir Terence Conran believes it should be "on every kitchen shelf". It was first published in 1938 and contains chefs' biographies, glossaries of terms, step-by-step pictures for certain recipes and maps of wine regions. Ideal for accomplished chefs who want to perfect classic techniques or anyone with a thirst for foodie knowledge

A comprehensive guide to basic techniques, recipes and kitchen etiquette, this book was billed as 'every woman's best friend' when it first came out 14 years ago (presumably men didn't cook in 1997). The recipes get progressively more challenging throughout; from boiling eggs to classics such as smoked haddock with crème fraîche and chive butter sauce and peppercrusted beef fillet. Over a decade after its first publication, Delia's tone is also genuinely good fun. It's the next best thing to having your mum on standby during a dinner party SOS.

But hair grows, and so does beards and mustache for some of us. And if we can cast spells, we can surely dye or cut our hair. I know I've been waiting forever to change my hairstyle and hair color...

Research Papers On BULLYING
5 pages in length. There are myriad reasons for intervention and just as many ways to approach it. From drug and alcohol abuse to domestic and child violence, from school bullying to helping Emergency Medical Technicians deal with a particularly emotional situation, the fundamental basis of intervention is to help an individual out of a situation where he/she may or may not realize help is needed but is nonetheless powerless to get it alone. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
A 4 page research paper that examines the possible causes for school violence. The writer profiles suggested causes, such as ostracism and bullying. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
A 5 page argumentative essay that contends school bullying will continue to be a major problem facing Japanese society. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
A 5 page paper discussing a system of classifying Arab nations devised by Clement Henry and Robert Springborg. Under this system, Algeria, Syria and Iraq are "bunker states;" Egypt is a "bully praetorian" state. The paper assesses this classification method and concludes that Henry and Springborg's method is a useful one. Bibliography lists 1 source.
7 pages in length. A child of seven years who kills animals, is disruptive in class and bullies other children is demonstrating severe antisocial behavior. In order to gain a significantly better understanding of the basis upon which such negative demeanor has developed, it is important to examine the theories of behavior specialists such as Piaget, Freud and Skinner, a trio of psychologists whose primary objective was to uncover the reasons why people display the behaviors they do. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
A five page paper which considers SJ Gould's perception of true science, creation science and religion, as exemplified in his work Bully for Brontosaurus. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
A five page paper which looks at Leora Tannenbaum's 'Slut: growing up female with a bad reputation' with reference to young women's sexual behaviour, the 'double standard', and the role which educators should play in eliminating the form of bullying known as 'slut-bashing'. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
This 5 page paper is a discussion of two sections of Stephen Jay Gould's book, Bully for Brontosaurus. Chapters Ten and Eleven are analyzed and two separate essays are produced. The common theme of textbooks and the validity of scientific theory are discussed. Examples given from text and quoted. Bibliography lists 1 source.
A 9 page organizational behavior paper discussing GM's problems of management that now have led to massive government bailout and awarding of ownership to the UAW. GM's management should not have withered in the face of every union demand throughout the 1980s and 1990s. GM's senior management allowed the UAW to bully it into unsustainable positions and abdicated its responsibility to all non-union stakeholders, including the many employees who now have lost their unsustainable jobs. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
This 20 page paper looks at four different aspects of the employment environment that concerns the 'wellness' of an organization. The issues discussed include bullying and harassment as elements of toxicity in a company, individual employee health, work family initiatives and the importance of the work life balance and employee assistance programs. Each influence is discussed individually. The bibliography cites 22 sources.

We got a good bit of feedback on our front-page photo of local gymnast Nastia Liukin taking a painful fall during her unsuccessful effort to qualify for the Olympics team. "Her disappointment goes without saying, but she deserves better than being splayed on the front page as well as sport section," said Gretchen, a reader in Dallas. "A bit of overkill and very insensitive."
On the level of pure humanity, I shared the sadness many readers felt for Ms. Liukin. She's a great athlete, a graceful performer and a tough competitor. She deserves her community's support. But our mission goes beyond being fans. We try to reflect important parts of reality, in sports as in every other realm of news. As the many letters we received indicated, her performance was a matter of great interest to many people. The photo, unfortunately, was an accurate representation of how it ended. There's another reason for printing images like this: They show how difficult top-level athletics (in this case, gymnastics) can be, even for a gold-medal champion like Ms. Liukin. That's an important insight, because at her best, with good health and good luck, she made it look so divinely easy. Without occasional glimpses of the grueling effort behind those great performances, we might not know enough to value her accomplishments as highly as we do.
A Dallas reader called us out on an important error in a caption on a June 29 story about Judge Larry Mitchell. That story was accompanied by a photo, and the photo's caption incorrectly identified the picture as being of Larry Miller, who is a candidate for District One of the Dallas County commissioner's court. Mr. Miller wrote on July 1 to say that planned to notify his supporters that we'd failed to run a correction, "suggesting to some that the newspaper's news department may be partisan in my contested political contest."
The correction ran in the usual place (page 2A, Corrections and Clarifications) on June 30. It was serious error, and we do try to correct such things immediately. It didn't stem from any partisanship.. It was simple incompetence. Our internal file system incorrectly identified the picture of Mr. Mitchell as being an image of Mr. Miller. We failed, as a newsroom, to identify and fix the error prior to publication. That's partly because of the way we produce the paper. Our writers generally finish their stories in early evening, then go home. A separate staff of copy editors and layout editors pulls together stories and photos and lays them out on the pages. We work hard to avoid miscommunication and failed hand-offs in this necessarily rushed environment. But every now and then we fail, and this was one of those times. Our apologies.
Liz, writing from somewhere in cyberspace, wondered why her husband found a story in his print paper (about a 32-pound girl being rescued from a closet) when she could not find that story on her iPad. "Does that happen often that articles miss the download?"
There was a time when just about everything we published was driven by the printed newspaper. Our Web site, for instance, was almost a perfect container for that morning's newspaper. As we've moved further into the digital world, though, we've realized that people using different platforms want different things, at different times, and sometimes presented in different ways. We think that we've discovered a better way to serve our readers. We have way more breaking news stories throughout the day on our Web site and on our mobile platforms, for instance, and a far broader and deeper set of blog posts. We regularly produce video and slideshows only for our digital offerings. But I can see how some long-time readers might say, "Gee, I just want to find a story that was in the morning paper. Where is it on this thing?" On that question, I can offer a few tips:
· The perfect replica of our printed edition can be found on our e-edition, which is available to regular Web users (at http://digital.olivesoftware.com/Olive/ODE/DallasMorningNews/) and as an iPad app (search the app store for dallas morning news eedition). The app will let you download and save a full edition of the paper if you like.
· Our flagship iPad app should contain every significant staff story that was in the printed paper, plus updates throughout the day. We don't, however, fully duplicate our printed world and nation report on the flagship app, because we figure that readers have other good sources for that content online, and value us mostly for our local report. (Readers, if you disagree, please feel free to let me know). Also, section names on the app are not the same as those in the printed paper. For instance, the paper's "Metro" section becomes "Local" on the app.
· Our desktop and mobile Web sites also offer just about all our printed staff stories, plus a bunch of other things, like blogs, live traffic and weather. But their national reports are fed largely by The Associated Press, while the printed paper also draws on reports from Bloomberg News, the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, and The New York Times. So the Web site may have a different selection of national and world news than the paper does. On the bright side, that news will also be updated every few minutes throughout the day.
If this seems confusing, here's a final tip that might help keep things simple: A single subscription can purchase full access to all these print and digital platforms. Once you've signed up, a single username and password will guarantee access to everything we produce.

Founders & Visionaries - May 2011
Six companies with visionaries at the helm.
(page 6 of 6)
Jim Wayman, President of Hawaii
Hawaii Coffee Company
An Overview of 42 Years in Hawaii - by Jim Wayman
Hawaii Coffee Company dates back to 1969 with its Royal Kona Coffee brand and 1979 with its Lion Coffee brand. In June of 2000, Lion Coffee and Royal Kona Coffee merged to form Hawaii's largest coffee roasting company – the Hawaii Coffee Company.
At the time of the merger, Lion was Hawaii's leading retail brand and Royal Kona was the largest food service channel brand in Hawaii. The merger created a company with much more versatility and energy coming from a diverse employee group.
Each of these companies brought something interesting and special to the brew. Royal Kona was originally owned by Superior Coffee out of Chicago. They established themselves in Hawaii in 1969 and began selling primarily to the food service channel. You might say that Hawaii's Kona Coffee industry owes much of its global recognition to Royal Kona – Superior Coffee, because for several years, the company purchased and marketed the ENTIRE Kona coffee crop helping to provide Kona Coffee with an international identity.
Lion Coffee was founded in Toledo, Ohio, in 1864 by the Woolson Spice Company. The company went out of business during the Great Depression. Although out of business, Lion Coffee left behind many interesting marketing materials, including a line of collectables that were offered as gifts with a purchase of coffee.
In the mid 1960s, a young collector named Jim Delano came across some of the Lion collectables and decided to do some research on Lion Coffee. Jim discovered that the Lion Coffee trademark was available for purchase and decided to obtain it and start up a gourmet coffee company. Jim picked Hawaii as the marketplace to start the company because he loved Hawaii and felt its people would be receptive to a high quality gourmet coffee offering. So, in 1979, Jim brought Lion Coffee to Hawaii. Today, Lion holds the distinction of being the oldest brand of coffee in operation west of the Mississippi River.
(left to right) Lion Coffee, Hawaiian Islands Tea, Royal Kona
Since the merger in June of 2000, both Lion Coffee and Royal Kona Coffee have been manufactured in a 55,000-square-foot state-of-the art coffee roasting plant in Kalihi in the old Libby McNeil Cannery buildings at 1555 Kalani Street. In 2003 the company purchased the Hawaiian Islands Tea Company, which specializes in a line of tropically flavored teas. We currently own and operate the only tea-bagging machine in Hawaii.
Quality and consistency are the cornerstones of our success. We have many scientific quality control checks but it is the final procedure that is my favorite. Every morning at 10:00 a.m., one package from each batch roasted and packaged the previous day is brewed and setup for tasting in our quality control lab. My tasting team and I then get to have a taste of each coffee. These same brews are then available in thermal air pots in our adjacent retail café allowing our visiting customers to be tasters too. We conduct tours of our Kalihi plant every hour from 10:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., so if you have time, why not enjoy a tour while sipping your favorite brew? Groups are welcome. Hope to see you soon!

F0S-ART SPACE SERIES 2 Part 2: Susanne Pikullik-Bastian – Bewegte Kästen
We carry on. After the ballet in an extremely confined space the relationship boxes are reappearing in a new form. Susanne Pikullik - Bastian already tackled the idea of the zero spiral in the first event series. Now we can tap into a painted game with moving boxes.
"We humans continually move in our individual boxes, sometimes with a distance to the other , sometimes right in the middle , sometimes on top, but always in search of deeper connectedness with the whole, the creative, the divinity inside ourselves.
While searching this zero point within myself I met Lere Shakunle . His Transfigural Mathematics sustainably inspired my paintings."

Collected Stories of Carson McCullersby Carson Mccullers
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Set in 1923,Delta Weddingis an exquisitely woven story of southern family life, centered around the Fairchild familys preparations for a wedding at their Mississippi plantation. InThe Ponder Heart, a comic masterpiece, Miss Edna Earle Ponder, one of the few living members of a once prominent family, tells a traveling salesman the history of her family and fellow townsfolk. This edition brings together two fine works from one of the most beloved writers of the American south.
Carson McCullers--novelist, dramatist, poet--was at the peak of her powers as a writer of short fiction. Here are nineteen stories that explore her signature themes: wounded adolescence, loneliness in marriage, and the tragicomedy of life in the South. Here too are "The Member of the Wedding" and "The Ballad of the Sad Cafe," novellas that Tennessee Williams judged to be "assuredly among the masterpieces of our language." (A Mariner Reissue)
Includes bibliographical references (p. [393]-394).
About the Author
Carson McCullers (1917-1967) was the author of numerous works of fiction and nonfiction, including The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, The Member of the Wedding, Reflections in a Golden Eye, and Clock Without Hands. Born in Columbus, Georgia, on February 19, 1917, she became a promising pianist and enrolled in the Juilliard School of Music in New York when she was seventeen, but lacking money for tuition, she never attended classes. Instead she studied writing at Columbia University, which ultimately led to The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, the novel that made her an overnight literary sensation. On September 29, 1967, at age fifty, she died in Nyack, New York, where she is buried.

Hi ALWINN!
I've had similar difficulties trying to understand what is going on with Proust! The wikipedia article is surprisingly helpful for this, you might want to have a scan through it:
The difficulty seems to be that there are various different translations of the titles of each volume (and the overall title of course - my version is 'Remembrance of Things Past' rather than 'In Search of Lost Time')
It looks like your copy only has volumes 4 - 7. The equivalent translations are:
Cities of the Plain = Sodom and Gomorrah
The Captive = The Prisoner
The Sweet Chariot Gone = The Fugitive
Your best bet is probably to try and find Volume I of the edition that you have. Or alternatively the wiki page has a nice list of all the English translation publications. I'd be interested to know which edition you have, or whether you know whether there is a definitive edition? Mine is currently on Kindle and I'm starting to think it might be easy to tackle if I have the actual volumes in my hand!

Ann, at one time you said you were interested in doing a group read of The Heart is a Lonely Hunter. Are you still interested? We're about to start.
Talk to you later,

The darlings are doing well. As for mischief? If there's a goat, there's mischief. I just returned from Rehoboth, MA, where I picked up a buckling from Rosasharn Farm. Their goats are arguably the best of the major genetic lines for Nigerian dwarf dairy goats. I am excited.

Not sure if you remember me or not, but you reviewed my novel, Dirty Little
Angels, a while back. I'm writing because I'm almost done with my new novel, In
the Valley of Falling Stars, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in
taking a look at it and giving me your opinion. I can send you a complete
summary, but it's essentially about a mentally-ill man living in post-Katrina
New Orleans who becomes convinced that his wife is pregnant with Jesus Christ.
The book is still in process, but the entire book is sketched out, and I
currently have eight chapters that I feel are done. If you're too busy, I
understand. Just thought I'd ask.
Hope you're doing well,

I am definitely going to read Invisible Man. I will probably start on Monday. I want to get a little farther into Gone with the Wind, plus I will be out of town on the weekend. But I am going to read that book for sure in September. :) Hope you have a nice Labor Day Weekend.

I have finally started reading the comments, too, after reading each section. I have been wanting to read this book for a long time, because the group reads -- lit group had read it before I was a member. I think I will put links between the threads so they will be easier to find. Have a great day!
posted by billiejean at 12:39 pm (EST) on Aug 17, 2010
I am also going back to read the comments from the Group Reads -- Literature group about Middlemarch one of these days. I have been wanting to read that book for quite a while. :)
posted by billiejean at 8:39 pm (EST) on Aug 16, 2010
You are really doing great with the group read! I just hit the halfway point. I have enjoyed reading your comments on the book. Are you going to read Invisible Man, too? I am going to read that after finishing Middlemarch. Also, there is a group called Group Reads -- Literature that often reads books off the 1001 list. I am reading Red and Black for that group, although I have fallen behind as I enjoy Middlemarch more. They are just now starting Madame Bovary, which I read recently. So I am just going to lurk on that one. I also just started on Gone With the Wind, which I have not read in a long time. The movie is playing through me head as I read it. Don't know if that is good or bad! :)

I have started Book 2. So just when I was getting interested in the characters of Book 1, they disappear. I haven't had a chance to read your posting on the group read thread, but I will be glad to get other people's perspectives on this book.

Hi, Ann!
Thanks for the friends invitation. I don't live that far from you in Tulsa, OK. Are you reading Middlemarch now? I am hoping to start it soon.

I have had a few bad experiences with "classics" (like Catcher in the Rye & Anna Karenina) so I am glad to have the 1001 book to give me some guidance and context as to why these books are so great. I am reading Oliver Twist and I am pleasently surprised with Charles Dickens. My only exposure had been the Muppets Christmas Carol and I had no idea how sarcastic of a writer he was.
I just got a few more books on the list that aren't at my library - too bad work interfers with my reading time.

I hate when I realize I have already read a book. I read Angela's Ashes quite a few years back so I don't remember too much about it - other than it was moving and depressing at the same time. I need to pick up The Shining from the library. I am in the mood for something different and I am relieved to hear that it isn't full of blood and guts.

I know I have to keep reminding myself that it is okay to read a book that isn't on the 1001 list. The Brothers Karamavoz has been my favorite Russian lit to date, but that doesn't say much : ) I still can't figure out why it needed to be so long.
I see you are reading The Shining - I will be interested to know what you think. I saw the movie, but I haven't read any Stephen King. I am looking forward to it (and crossing one more off the list).

text: The Merc with a Mouth... and a Heart. The day my father Odin banished me from Asgard, I was bitten by a vampire and had radioactive waste dumped into my eyes. To make matters worse, my mutant ability to control weather activated just as I was hit by a blast of gamma radiation! Naaaaaah! Actually, I'm just a merc who wants to make a difference. If you've stumbled upon this page, it's probably because you've seen me, the glorious Pink Deadpool, at any given number of Comic Cons and Anime Cons all along the East Coast... or somebody really spammed the hell out of the link to this page. Which is GREAT because now you get to hear me rant! My real name is James Ryan Jwanowski and I'm not JUST a cosplayer, I'm a "Cause-Player". (Ha! HA! Get it?!) Now, I bet all you mouth breathers out there are asking yourselves two things... WHY is Deadpool, of all people, asking ME for money and WHY in the world is he PINK?! WELL, I came up with the idea for a Pink Deadpool costume to help promote breast cancer awareness. For the longest time, I've wanted to take my cosplaying career to the next level and go beyond the convention scene. I want to actually BE a superhero for people. However, since I can't fly, jump over buildings, or stop a speeding bullet (well, I guess I can do that last one but it really hurts), I figured I could always dress up for charities for kids, the less fortunate, the sick, or whoever wants a great costumed hero at their event. I also really wanted to stick out of the crowd where ever I went so that I could get people's attention a lot easier for whatever cause or event I was promoting. I then found out that a couple of friends of mine and/or their family members were either diagnosed with breast cancer or were survivors of it, one of them being my lady's mother. Hearing all of their stories was kinda like when Bruce Wayne was deciding on a costume. He needed one that would strike fear into the hearts of criminals and then a bat bashes through his window, giving him the idea to become Batman. That was when I decided make a PINK Deadpool costume for breast cancer awareness and honor the fight that my friends and/or their families are in against breast cancer. SOOO why Deadpool, you ask? That's easy. I'm a Deadpool cosplayer and not to toot my own horn but I'm pretty damn good at it. His crazy personality and dark sense of humor come very natural to me. I bring Deadpool to life like it ain't funny, but actually it is. Don't believe me? You got another comin' if we meet. ANYWAY, I've built up quite the reputation at the conventions to which I have been attending for the past year and a half, making my following on the internet pretty intense. I have got some of the best fans a merc could ask for. I've also met some of the most amazing people in my life due to this little hobby and they've inspired me to keep going with it. So, I figured since Deadpool is so "out there" and random, it doesn't seem like too far of a stretch to see him wearing a pink suit as opposed to his traditional red suit. Deadpool is the character I portray extremely well so I might as well continue with it where ever I go. What I find funny and pretty cool about doing a breast cancer awareness Deadpool is that in the comic books written by Daniel Way there's a point where Deadpool tries to become a hero and teams up with popular characters such as Spider-Man and Captain America. My goal with this suit is to help out breast cancer charities of all shapes and sizes and to spread awareness like a virus. I also wanna show other cosplayers that they can do some good with their costumes too. Actually, I have already inspired some other cosplayers to make pink versions of their costumes too! Realizing that I'm no longer the only superhero decked out in pink for breast cancer awareness made me giggle like a little school girl and really lifted my spirits, Like me, they are all being thanked by random people who's lives have been impacted by breast cancer for showing their support in such a huge and creative way. Right then and there was when I really knew that where ever I hopped, skipped, and bounced in my new pink Deadpool suit spreading breast cancer awareness that it was going to be well received by others. The only question I had was why weren't people doing this before? My first plan of attack was to enter costume contests at conventions across the eastern seaboard and donate the winnings to a popular breast cancer charity. The Susan G. Komen foundation was my first choice since it's so well known. It was the least I could do. Alas, in the geeky cosplay world of movie-accurate Iron-Men and car-battery powered Daleks, this honest assasin couldn't catch a break! :( Now, like after every failed first attempt, it's on to plan B! So I'm here asking everyone who knows what I'm all about and admires what I'm doing to donate whatever they can to help out the millions of women affected by breast cancer. Now before you dismiss me like the average telemarketer who's always asking for money, hear me out. I know times are tough, believe me. I'm not exactly "rolling in it" either. Hell, I should have a FirstGiving account just for my own funds BUT this ain't about Deadpool's questionable financial managing skills. This is about helping out the millions of women and their struggle to find a cure for breast cancer. Now let's get serious for a minute here... I'm not going through with this charity page because I want the attention. I'm doing this because I can and because I knowthat down in my heart it's the right thing to do. To myself as well as the millions of ladies battling breast cancer, it matters not how much you donate. What matters is if you do. So go ahead and ask yourself... How much do YOU value a full, voluptuous, glistening rack? $2.00? $5.00? $1000?

Software developer Apple acquired its second company in as many weeks on Monday by picking up Twitter analytics specialists Topsy.
Following its acquisition of Primesense, the company behind Microsoft's Xbox 360 Kinect sensor last week, Apple confirmed on Monday that it bought Topsy, a company that specialises in analysing Twitter data.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Apple coughed up a cool $200m for the social media firm, but Apple has not confirmed the amount. Instead, an Apple spokesperson said vaguely, "Apple buys smaller technology companies from time to time, and we generally do not discuss our purpose or plans."
It's still unclear why Apple decided to acquire Topsy, and it seems like an out of character acquisition for the firm, with the iPhone and iPad maker yet to enter the world of social media.
According to Gartner analyst Carolina Milanesi, Apple might have acquired the company to serve better app recommendations to its customers.
"From an usage perspective, they can use it for the app store and iTunes," Milanesi said. "With apps, it is really difficult to find good recommendations. It's much harder to see what people use and why."
There's also talk that Apple might be looking to improve the advertisements that it shows in its services such as iTunes Radio, and tune its digitial voice assistant Siri, which started quoting Twitter information following the rollout of iOS 7.
Topsy has yet to comment on the acquisition.

If you had kept your original Apple-1 computer from the 1970s, you could have banked north of $250,000.
On May 25th, a German auction house will put this Apple-1 computer up for sale, where it's expected to fetch between $250,000 to $400,000. It's just one of six left in the world that is said to still be in working order and also includes a signed letter from Steve Jobs offering its original owner, Fred Hatfield, an upgraded motherboard at the cost of $400.
Who would have thought that a $666.76 (1976 money) computer, which are today largely regarded as a throw away items after few years of use, could garner so much interest as well as money. Apparently, this same computer went up for auction last year but wasn't bought, despite the accompanying letter and a motherboard that was signed Steve Woz, who built the motherboard by hand. Also included is the original manual and what looks to be a tape recorder/player.
Needless to say, Vintage Apple machines are worth a fair bit of coin. Last year another Apple-1 machine sold for $640,000.

Dreams of physical examination often occur at times when we feel our lives may not be as well-ordered as they could or should be. Close scrutiny often reveals trouble where we thought everything was fine. Or, conversely, it reveals that we are fine when we were having vague feelings that there may be trouble.
Who did the examining and what was the nature of the problem discovered, or were you fortunate to be given a clean bill of health?

fun fact:
The album cover is a picture of a 60-year-old painting by bassist Arif Mirabdolbaghi's grandfather, Jafar Petgar, titled "Scurrilous". The painting was inspired by a disagreement between Petgar and his wife that stemmed from "conjecture and scurrilous lies" being spread by a neighbor. The painting is meant to represent the world fleeing from the lies originating from the human tongue.
i never knew what the painting was about, pretty nifty.

Devereux, and Edward are okay, but I'm not a huge fan of Balthazar. I prefer August to Augustus, because I feel like the 'gus' sound is more prominent with Augustus, and I really don't like Gus.Wholocked, history and chemistry loving teenberry (16).Hoping to be a mummy in the very distant future.

From your list, I love:
They are strong male names that will definitely stand out.
A few of them will have pronunciation issues, if that bothers you.
Lucian is confusing to me, while Edward and Augustus are ordinary in my opinion.
Balthazar and Amadeus are favorites for me.

The latest News IQ Quiz: How our web visitors stack up against the public
Our online quiz-takers did better than the general public on each of the 13 questions in our latest News IQ Quiz.
What the Public Knows – In Words, Pictures, Maps and Graphs
The latest Pew Research Center News IQ quiz measures the public's knowledge of current affairs with several different question formats, including graphs, charts and pictures. Take our quiz and read about the questions in our report.
Public's Science Knowledge Varies Widely
The public's knowledge of science and technology varies widely across a range of questions on current topics and basic scientific concepts, according to a new quiz by the Pew Research Center and Smithsonian magazine.

Who Took the News IQ Quiz and How Did They Do?
By Scott Keeter, Director of Survey Research On Feb. 5 the Pew Research Center released a report on its latest NewsIQ Quiz, "What the Public Knows – In Pictures, Maps, Graphs and Symbols," based on interviews with 1,041 randomly sampled adults nationwide.

What the Public Knows – In Pictures, Maps, Graphs and Symbols
The latest update of the Pew Research Center's regular News IQ quiz uses a set of 13 pictures, maps, graphs and symbols to test knowledge of current affairs.
What the Public Knows about the Political Parties
Most Americans can correctly identify the relative positions of the Republican and Democratic parties on the major issues of the day. But a review of what Americans know about the political parties suggests that two popular recent presidents — Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton — are more recognizable icons of their political parties than any issue or ideological position.
What the Public Knows – In Words and Pictures
The Pew Research Center News IQ tests the public's knowledge of prominent people and major events in the news. The latest survey used multiple-choice items as well as photographs, maps and symbols in its 19 questions.
Political Knowledge Update
The public is generally aware of basic facts about several recent national and international news stories, but current politics in Washington, including the balance of power, are a mystery to many. Young adults score best on education and Facebook.

HOLYOKE, Mass. — A grade-school student who took an Uzi-styled water gun to school for field day triggered a complete lockdown of four schools in Holyoke.
Since the students were walking to 1 of 4 schools, all the facilities were locked down while authorities searched for the weapon.
The Republican newspaper in Springfield reports that the water gun was found in a backpack at the Morgan Elementary School.
School Superintendent Eduardo Carballo said it belonged to a student who thought the water gun would be fun to have on field day.
