Super Dad (and Fitness Pro) David Kirsch on Family-Friendly Wellness
David Kirsch and his daughters Francesca and Emilia.
A few weeks ago, a few members of our team had a chance to work out one-on-one with celebrity trainer David Kirsch. (Check out their awesome form!) Naturally I was way jealous. Kirsch is known for whipping stars like Heidi Klum and Ellen Barkin into shape, as well as helping regular people overhaul their diet and exercise routines. As the father of two girls, he's also a pro at creating a healthy family life—I asked him how he does it.
1. I know you started out as a corporate lawyer. What advice do you have for people who are trying to stay balanced in the workplace?
Whether you find yourself in the corporate world, the fashion world, or the fitness world, making health and exercise a ritual is important. Find time for mini workouts—planks or crunches in the morning before you get in the shower—and put alerts in your calendar to remind you to get up and walk around hourly. I also recommend starting each day with a healthy breakfast and brown bagging your lunch.
2. What are small ways you can work to become more healthy?
Eat a healthy breakfast with plenty of protein every morning and find time for exercise, even if it's just a 10- or 15-minute express workout, every day.
3. What's always in your fridge?
I always have coconut water, almond coconut milk, eggs, organic fruits and vegetables, salsa, dijon mustard, organic flax and chia seeds, organic 2% milk for my daughters, and some sort of homemade meal—it might be chicken, wild salmon, or organic turkey and organic produce. And a bottle of really good champagne, just in case.
4. How do you adapt your wellness approach to your two daughters?
My daughters eat what I eat, just slightly modified. I make it less spicy, since they're young. We eat breakfast and dinner every day together. Breakfast is a slice of gluten-free toast with Olivo spread, or steel cut oatmeal and fresh fruit. Francesca loves carbs, so to make them healthy we use my air fryer to make sweet potato or Yukon Gold french fries, or we make kamut or quinoa or brown rice pasta and fresh tomato sauce. Emilia loves protein, so she and I like to share a hormone-free filet, or fresh caught salmon or organic chicken. They're not really embracing salad quite yet (especially Francesca, who hates spinach) so we make tomatoes, cucumbers and avocado, or I make cooked spinach for Emilia.
5. As a busy parent, what time-saving tips do you have?
Prep ahead. I try to shop on Sunday or during a weekday if I have a break to avoid the crowds. I'm lucky enough to have Eataly right next door to me so I buy fresh fish and poultry. I like to cook with the season: homemade apple/pear sauce in the fall and lots of fresh fruit, smoothies, etc. in the summer.
6. What about your favorite outdoor family activities?
We love scootering! We scooter all over the city—to school, to gymnastics, to the park. We also play soccer, ride bikes and feed the ducks on the Hudson River.

The Seattle Seahawks signed first-round draft pick Aaron Curry to a six-year deal that guarantees the linebacker $34 million, a league source told NFL Network's Jason La Canfora on Saturday.
The contract is the richest for a rookie non-quarterback in NFL history, The Associated Press reports, and has a maximum value of $60 million, according to the league source.
Curry, the No. 4 overall pick in the April draft, made a surprise appearance at Saturday's practice, sprinting onto the field almost 30 minutes into the session to boisterous applause from Seahawks fans in attendance.
Seattle Seahawks
Experience: Rookie
Height: 6-2
Weight: 254
College: Wake Forest
"I am just as excited to be out here and just to see the emotion from the fans and get back with my team is just an amazing feeling," said Curry, who played collegiately at Wake Forest.
Seahawks coach Jim Mora said Curry has a steep learning curve after missing 12 practices over eight days of training camp. That was evident the moment the Seahawks thrust Curry into one-on-one drills, without the linebacker having done so much as stretch or warm-up.
On his first play, Curry was matched up against tight end Cameron Morrah, who burned him on a square-in route. One fan sarcastically yelled out, "Welcome to the NFL."
Curry spent the afternoon practicing with Seattle's No. 2 defense, but Mora made it clear that the rookie will start at strong-side linebacker.
"He wasn't in there with the first group just because he's got so much catching up to do," Mora said. "I don't know at what point we'll make the switch and he'll start running out there with the first defense, but I think it will be pretty soon."
Although he worked out and studied his playbook in nearby Bellevue during the holdout, Curry said he grew anxious and eventually told his agents to speed up the contract negotiations.
Fellow rookie Deon Butler filled in Curry on practice matters during the holdout, and Lofa Tatupu also visited, giving his fellow linebacker a mini-walkthrough of what the defense was doing. But Tatupu believed Curry would quickly acclimate himself with the Seahawks' strategy during camp.
"Linebacker, it's not like it's rocket science," Tatupu said with a laugh. "Just hit the man with the ball."
Mora credited Seahawks general manager Tim Ruskell for working the phones with Curry's representatives late into Friday night.
"This is probably the longest contract we'll ever do, in terms of pages and volume and little nuances to the deal," Ruskell said.
Only No. 1 overall pick Matthew Stafford, the quarterback drafted by the Detroit Lions, has received a richer guarantee -- $41.7 million -- in this year's draft class.
Notes: Mora said he believed the Seahawks "dodged a bullet" with the injury to Chris Spencer. The center was carted off the field Friday with an ankle injury, but he was walking around Saturday. ... Walter Jones also didn't practice because of a back injury, and Mora said the veteran offense tackle wouldn't play in the team's first preseason game Aug. 22. The coach was optimistic that Jones would be involved in practice soon. ... Also not practicing Saturday was CB Marcus Trufant (back), DL Cory Redding (soreness), DE Michael Bennett (knee) and OG Grey Ruegamer (elbow). ... To make roster room for Curry, the Seahawks waived WR Billy McMullen.

For the 22nd Engineer Clearance Company, searching for improvised explosive devices was only half the battle. The Taliban was constantly lurking in the shadows.
"They have the advantage," said Sgt. Edwin Roman. "They know the terrain better than us, and they can hide."
As the convoy traveled along the barren terrain, a voice chattered from the radio. "Keep scanning."
At any time, the enemy can pounce. Soldiers must stay alert with their heads on a swivel.
"They don`t wear uniforms," said Sfc. Kelly Simco. "I'm sure we drive by the insurgents everyday when we are out on our patrols. You got some guys that just look at you funny, and guys that look up and down our vehicles, and just makes you think, you know. Is that our enemy?"
The Taliban are a determined enemy. They learned to set up effective ambushes against U.S. soldiers.
"We are a big sitting target," said Sgt. Timothy Hallberg, referring to the size of the vehicles and the amount of equipment the 22nd Engineer Clearance Company carries. "Our trucks are huge. We have a lot of firepower. We pack a punch, but we have to wait for them to engage us."
Waiting, as every soldier and embedded reporter comes to understand, is an unappreciated challenge during war. "You just kind of wait for them to engage," said Sgt. Hallberg. "You just kind of wait all day until something 'pops off' and then you just engage."
On one route known for attacks, Afghan army soldiers riding in trucks behind us started taking fire.
It was only a matter of time before we became targets.
I heard a voice call out, "RPG."
A rocket was spotted on the side of the road. It didn`t feel right. Soldiers can smell an ambush. Usually the convoy would dispose of something like a rocket lying on the ground.
"I was like, 'You know, we can't stop for this.' It`s a bad area. It's in the 'box of death,'" said Sgt. Hallberg.
The convoy started moving again. Within seconds, the radio came alive.
Soldiers began calling out that their truck was being hit. And then it happened – we are under attack.
Sgt. Hallberg saw a muzzle flash. Then he felt a hit. "It's really slight, but you can still feel it hit the armor," Sgt. Hallberg said. "I saw the round go off, and they just starting spraying us."
I could hear bullets hitting our truck. Our gunner returned fire. The chaos of the battle mirrored the emotions I felt inside. I wasn't alone.
"It's like funneling 12 cokes at once," said Pfc. Justin Manchester. "All the caffeine just kicks in at once. Your legs shake sometimes. Your hands shake. You zone out. You focus more which is kind of weird. But you focus in on one thing. Your senses just come a lot more developed than they normally are."
More rounds hit the vehicle.
"Adrenaline is going like crazy," said Sgt. Edwin Roman. "Sometimes you can hear pings from the bullets hitting the truck.

Einstein Was Right: Space-Time Is Smooth, Not Foamy
Space-time is smooth rather than foamy, a new study suggests, scoring a possible victory for Einstein over some quantum theorists who came after him.
In his general theory of relativity, Einstein described space-time as fundamentally smooth, warping only under the strain of energy and matter. Some quantum-theory interpretations disagree, however, viewing space-time as being composed of a froth of minute particles that constantly pop into and out of existence.
It appears Albert Einstein may have been right yet again.
A team of researchers came to this conclusion after tracing the long journey three photons took through intergalactic space. The photons were blasted out by an intense explosion known as a gamma-ray burst about 7 billion light-years from Earth. They finally barreled into the detectors of NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope in May 2009, arriving just a millisecond apart.
Their dead-heat finish strongly supports the Einsteinian view of space-time, researchers said. The wavelengths of gamma-ray burst photons are so small that they should be able to interact with the even tinier "bubbles" in the quantum theorists' proposed space-time foam.
If this foam indeed exists, the three protons should have been knocked around a bit during their epic voyage. In such a scenario, the chances of all three reaching the Fermi telescope at virtually the same time are very low, researchers said.
So the new study is a strike against the foam's existence as currently imagined, though not a death blow.
"If foaminess exists at all, we think it must be at a scale far smaller than the Planck length, indicating that other physics might be involved," study leader Robert Nemiroff, of Michigan Technological University, said in a statement. (The Planck length is an almost inconceivably short distance, about one trillionth of a trillionth the diameter of a hydrogen atom.)
"There is a possibility of a statistical fluke, or that space-time foam interacts with light differently than we imagined," added Nemiroff, who presented the results Wednesday (Jan. 9) at the 221st meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Long Beach, Calif.
If the study holds up, the implications are big, researchers said.
"If future gamma-ray bursts confirm this, we will have learned something very fundamental about our universe," Bradley Schaefer of Louisiana State University said in statement.

Nice Home with Lots of Room
Stayed here a week with my extended family and had a blast. The furnishings in this house were very nice and upscale; my mother-in-law mentioned that she felt like she was in a palace! Patti was very responsive before, during, and after our stay. The house is near the back of the housing complex, so it was a little tricky to find the first time, but it was easy to get the hang of. The pool was nice and mostly private given the lake view behind the house. It's a little bit of a hike to get to the theme parks, but we didn't have any problems getting there and back. If you're just in town for relaxation or shopping, I wouldn't hesitate to rent this house at all. There is a Publix and fast food within about 5-10 minutes. Also, if you're bringing along dogs, the tiled first floor is perfect for pooches! It's also very quiet in the area, so you should be able to get a good night's rest.
Amazing Villa, amazing location, amazing service
Everything was perfect from the start, with excellent service and professional throughout. Had a bit of trouble with the pool turning green (not anyone's fault, just bad rain) but after a quick phone call the pool was cleaned the very next day. Would recommend to anyone!
Lovely Relaxing Haven
The booking of this villa was excellent with all information provided by the owners along with helpful hints on eateries and local amenities. We did have an issue with the pool on arrival but this was resolved by the management company with no fault of the owner. The villa itself was well stocked with everything you would need for a perfect stay. The bedrooms were comfortably furnished - the master being the best bed ever slept in! The games room was super to keep the kids entertained and the outdoor space fabulous for a few hours relaxing at the end of a busy day. The views were super and such a quiet location at the end of a residential cup de sac. We got to see the resident gator "George" along with another smaller one. The theme parks 25-30mins away and an easy straight forward route. Walmart was only about 10 mins drive and the Publix is closer although more expensive. A fabulous stay and well recommended.

Manhunt underway for two men after shots fired at Florida cops
Miami, FL, United States (4E) – Authorities are searching early Wednesday for two armed men after gun shots were fired at police and a home was burned during a narcotics investigation in Miami, Florida the night before.
According to police, a third suspect, 29-year-old Brian Kelly Howell, was arrested and another two suspects, identified as 50-year-old Dell Peter DiGiovanni and 28-year-old Michael Steven DiGiovanni, were still at large.
The incident started around 7 p.m. Tuesday when narcotics detectives raided a suspected home along Miller Drive and Southwest 154th Avenue and the trio began shooting at the officers who fired back.
Reports stated the suspects went inside the home before it burned, and the three men escaped.
Police have warned residents to stay indoors as they continued the search for the other two men.

Since I became an adult, I've moved 15 times and even coast-to-coast twice. I've guilted many friends and family into helping me with promises of pizza, libations, and hugs. After 5 years of accumulating too much stuff, I planned to take a two-month sabbatical to travel and knew I couldn't ask my friends to help again. I needed an affordable storage unit and a moving team that would work with my schedule.
When I called 1-800-PACK-RAT, I chatted with Melissa, their moving coordinator, about all of the details of my two months of storage. It was surprisingly affordable to have everything moved out of my second story condo and into storage with a move into the new place I would choose later. She scheduled the container drop-off and the movers and the movers called to confirm the time and any needed items.
I was worried about some of my larger breakables like my antique stained glass window, mirrors, and large picture frames. They assured me they'd bring extra boxes and tape, plastic wrap for my furniture, and everything I needed to be sure nothing would break during the move.
Although Sandy hit the day before my impending move, 1-800-PACK-RAT made sure it was easy to move things around. They dropped off the container on time and pushed the move off one day due to the torrential downpour. The night before, Melissa called to checked in to be sure everything was ready for my move in the morning.
At 9am, Melissa left a message to let me know she was there for anything I needed and the movers showed up on time at 9:30 ready to start moving. After a quick discussion with me, they started with boxes and odd pieces like my rugs and my bike - they made it look easy. The movers knew just what to put in the container first to balance it out and be sure nothing would break in the move.
Watching my things head out the door on the backs of movers was enthralling. They wrapped my couch, mattress, and chair in plastic wrap so it wouldn't be damaged. Took care of my flat screen TV, mirrors and breakables with ease, and even took apart my dining table.
In the end, the container was secured, packed carefully, and ready for the truck to pick it up. They gave me the padlock, both of the keys, and wished me good luck with my journey. Melissa called one last time to check on how everything went and to let me know the container would be picked up that afternoon. A few hours later, the truck driver called to let me know my container was safe and secure on his truck and headed for the storage facility.
Although the move isn't completely over, I'm so thankful for 1-800-PACK-RAT and their movers. It was the first move I've ever done without stress. I'll never move myself again.

Remodeling can be extremely disruptive to your family. If you are living in your house while work is being done, you have to move all your belongings out of the affected areas of the house. Then you either cram them in much needed living spaces for your family or move them to storage. If you are temporarily moving out of your home until the remodeling is finished, you still have to find a safe place for the belongings from the areas under construction. When most people think of temporary storage, they envision renting a truck and loading and unloading things multiple times. Utilizing solutions like PACK RAT storage containers can save you a lot of work at a time when you already have enough on your to do list.
Your PACK RAT storage container will be delivered to you. You can keep your secure and weather proof container on your property. This is particularly helpful for those who will need to access those belongings frequently, or may be moving various things from different areas of the house in and out as the remodeling progresses. You can also choose to have your container taken to a PACK RAT storage facility for the duration of your remodeling. Many people cannot keep a container on their property, because of construction equipment or other project needs. If you still need to access those items from time to time, no worries. You will be able to access your container, while it is in a PACK RAT storage facility. And thanks to a special lifting mechanism that keeps your PACK RAT storage container level when it is lifted and transported, shifting of your contents will be minimal. Your storage container will be stored just as you packed it and delivered to you when you are ready to receive it. PACK RAT storage solutions are a welcome convenient solution when remodeling has posed enough inconvenience on you and your family.

The Montreal Canadiens will be looking for redemption tonight when they step on the ice against the Philadelphia Flyers in Game 2 of their Eastern Conference Final.
You can follow along on our live playoff blog on TSN.ca at 7pm et/4pm pt.
The Flyers embarrassed the Canadiens 6-0 in the opening game, but Montreal suffered lopsided losses in each of its previous two playoff series and rallied to win the following game.
Jaroslav Halak was pulled after allowing four goals on 14 shots in Game 1. He also got yanked after giving up five goals in a 6-3 loss to Pittsburgh in Game 1 of the second round. He was dominant the rest of the series, and the eighth-seeded Canadiens eliminated the Penguins in seven games.
"It wasn't one of his better games," Canadiens coach Jacques Martin said Monday. "I think he'll recognize that, and not just him. I think it goes with our hockey team. I think last night wasn't a good performance, and the result was there to show it. I've got lots of confidence, and his teammates have a lot of confidence in Jaro that he'll be able to bounce back."
Halak also stopped 131 of the final 134 shots he faced against the Capitals in the opening round. After his early exit against the Penguins, he allowed just 12 goals in the last six games and Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin were limited to a goal apiece in the series.
"Every series is a different series, so right now we are facing a different team than we faced in the first round and second round," Halak said. "So every team plays different hockey, and we just need to make a little bit adjustment in our penalty killing and our system. I think if we do that we should be okay."
In the other net, Flyers goalie Michael Leighton was outstanding. Making just his third start of the playoffs, Leighton stopped 28 shots for his first career playoff shutout.
Leighton has allowed only four goals on 98 shots in four games since replacing Brian Boucher, who is likely out for the postseason with a knee injury.
Leighton, who sat out from March 16 until May 10 because of an ankle injury, will take a shutout streak of 105 minutes, 50 seconds into Game 2. The Flyers, who overcame a 3-0 series deficit against Boston, could get more help soon. Injured forwards Jeff Carter (foot) and Ian Laperriere (concussion) both skated on Monday. Laperriere was cleared for contact, and general manager Paul Holmgren said he is closer to playing but he has been ruled out for Game 2.
From the Canadiens' side, there was plenty of speculation on Tuesday morning on who may or may not be in Martin's lineup. Forward Sergei Kostitsyn, who was all but banished by the team two weeks ago for apparent attitude issues, will be a game-time decision and could dress in place of Mathieu Darche or struggling winger Benoit Pouliot.

I am currently in the early stages of the redesign for our web site. I would like to put out an open invitation to others in group and area for input and ideas before going very much further. I have set up a test site at home playing with various ideas and concepts. I would like to offer up meeting at my place for further discussion. My time is currently flexible so could meet as convenient for others that are interested. Do not need to have computer skills as much as ideas graphically and useability to keep it active with good information available. This project can grow with time but want good foundation to build on. I gots lots of ideas and looking for others.
We can always toss some in the backyard Hawgfarm putting range.
Thanks all,

A collection of music from 60's and 70's will be added regularly by djkit & djfanis EST. March 12, 2007
Friday, November 23, 2012
"George Benson - White Rabbit- 1971 US":
For George Benson's second CTI project, producer Creed Taylor and arranger Don Sebesky successfully place the guitarist in a Spanish-flavored setting full of flamenco flourishes, brass fanfares, moody woodwinds and such. The idea works best on "California Dreamin'" (whose chords are based on Andalusian harmonies), where, driven by Jay Berliner's exciting Spanish rhythm guitar, Benson comes through with some terrifically inspired playing.
On "El Mar," Berliner is replaced by Earl Klugh (then only 17) in an inauspicious though at the time, widely-heralded recorded debut.
The title track is another winner, marred only by the out-of-tune brasses at the close, and in a good example of the CTI classical/jazz formula.
Herbie Hancock gets plenty of nimble solo space on Rhodes electric piano, Airto Moreira contributes percussion and atmospheric wordless vocals and Ron Carter and Billy Cobham complete the high-energy rhythm section. (by request)

By Craig Schneider, Public Health Reporter
Georgia is seeing a great jump in the number of people receiving food stamps, Medicaid and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families. Much of this is due to the hard economy. In turn, many of the new people on these programs are working-class people applying for assistance for the first time.
Some people believe this is reducing the stigma around the issue of receiving public assistance.
What do you think?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution is writing a story on this issue and is looking to speak to metro Atlantans who are receiving such services for the first time. The newspaper is also looking to speak to current and former state eligibility workers who process the applications.
In addition, the newspaper is doing a related story on people who are using Grady Memorial Hospital for the first time, because they have fallen on hard times.
Please contact reporter Craig Schneider at 404-526-5463 or email him at

The Land Rover Discovery 4 entered the 2012 model year with significant engine improvements, as well as a new exterior and interior look. Along with those changes, the British company has announced the addition of a very cool Black Design Pack which creates a striking new modern look for the Discovery 4 and complements the metallic paint finishes of the car.
Since it's called the Black Design package, we expected a few added black elements and Land Rover delivered with a gloss black grille and fender vents, gloss black door handles and mirror caps, gloss black Land Rover and Discovery 4 badges, and satin black extended roof rails. Customers can also choose between a new set of 19" 7-Split Spoke or 20" 5-Spoke all-black painted wheels.
Under the hood, customers will get the usual 3.0 liter LR-SDV6 engine that delivers a total of 256 HP, a 3.0-liter LR-TDV6 diesel with 211 HP, or a 5.0-liter LR-V8 with 375 HP. All of these engines will be combined with either a ZF 8HP70 8-speed automatic transmission or a ZF 6HP28 6-speed automatic transmission.

Rated 2 / 5 stars November 12, 2005
Okay, it was a remake, so hence no style or brain power were required. However it was a pretty good remake. The music sucked. And the use of the English language...well it's not your strong suit buddy.

The 20th Century Alternative. Playing the tastiest, album-oriented rock, power-pop, new-wave, jazz, jazz-rock, goth, prog, punk, post-punk, folk, glam, and psychedelic. Great tunes in sharp 128kbps audio. Send requests and comments to email@example.com. Peace!
In 1977, I bought my first album. I paid two dollars to a kid across the aisle from me in 10th grade English class, for a barely used copy of Black Sabbath's "Paranoid". I've been obsessively buying and listening to music from that day.
All the music played on Radio Alt.20 is ripped from CDs in my personal collection. I use cdparanoia, lame, sox, mp3gain, and other open source tools to produce the best quality MP3 audio file possible. Listen closely to the sound quality of my broadcast, I think you'll hear the difference.
If you love the music of the 20th Century, like I do, then this is a good place for you to be. Give it a go!

Video Recap
Months after leading the 2013 Princeton football team to the program's 10th Ivy League championship, seniors Matt Landry, Caraun Reid and Roman Wilson competed in the 2014 Princeton Football Pro Day Thursday morning.
Reid had the opportunity to build on his work at both the Senior Bowl and the NFL Combine, while Landry and Wilson were getting their first shot to test for NFL teams. Due to unseasonably cold and windy conditions, all drills took place inside. Following the lift and vertical jump in the Princeton Stadium weight room, the rest of the session took place on the turf field inside Jadwin Gymnasium.
Nine NFL teams were in attendance, though others have individual workouts already scheduled with Reid, a two-time All-America and three-time First-Team All-Ivy League honoree. Because of his work at the Combine, Reid did not do all of the tests that Landry and Wilson did; Reid did improve on both his 40 (4.87) and vertical jumps (27.5).
Following the standard Combine tests, all three players went through individual drills. Jay Hayes, the veteran defensive line coach of the Cincinnati Bengals (and former co-worker of Princeton head coach Bob Surace), worked out both Reid and Landry in defensive drills. Landry followed that by joining Wilson in passing drills.
The trio was cheered on throughout the morning by several of their Ivy championship teammates and coaches.
All results are available below.

The Three Musketeers
The Three Musketeers - Trailer
Director Paul W S AndersonYear 2011Genre(s) Action, Adventure
D'Artagnan has always dreamt of becoming a Musketeer but being too young he's never been able to leave his home town of Gascony and make the trip to Paris. Now a little older and less naive he travels to Paris where, through a rather unusual scenario, befriends three seasoned and well respected Musketeers named Athos, Porthos, and Aramis.
It's a Musketeers duty to protect the French Royal family, they act as personal guards and when D'Artagnan and his new allies learns of a plot to overthrow the throne, they swear they will protect their liege with their lives. A beautiful yet deadly woman named Milady de Winter has been recruited to assassinate anyone who stands in the way of her employer's vision of him ruling France thus starting a war throughout Europe.
The Three Musketeers is a passionate tale of love and friendship which is fraught with death and danger based on the 17th century novel by Alexandre Dumas.
Directed By: Paul W S Anderson
Starring: Logan Lerman, Matthew Macfadyen, Ray Stevenson, Luke Evans, Milla Jovovich, Christoph Waltz, Orlando Bloom, Juno Temple, Gabriella Wilde, Mads Mikkelsen, James Corden, Til Schweiger and Carsten Norgaard

Amazing bit of photography, the Nevermind baby 20 years later. Original on the right for comparison, sorry for the baby D. Its hard to believe its been 20 years since this album came out (9/24/1991), granted I did not discover this album until middle school, a solid 4 years after its release and probably a year or so after Kurt Cobain
was shot by Courtney Love committed suicide. This was one of the albums that taught me what music could be… that and the inspiring Weird Al Yankovic "Off the Deep End"
Besides being an Awesome CD (seriously Airline Amy is an astounding piece of work) it provides a nice bookend to the post…

Particularly in Western cultures, the use of alcohol often plays a role in our popular notions about conception. The idea of "making babies" conjures up images of romance and champagne. However, for folks who are really trying to conceive, such old notions must generally be put aside.
In general, it's best to avoid drinking alcohol during cycles in which conception is a goal, and here's why:
Alcohol can impair the functions of the glands (hypothalamus and pituitary) which release the all-important reproductive hormones, in addition to affecting the functioning of the body's other endocrine glands.
Alcohol related dysfunctions can by caused either by alcohol's direct interference with regulation of hormones or indirectly through other disorders related to alcohol abuse, such as liver disease, pancreatic disease, or malnutrition.

A landmark energy bill approved by the House of Representatives Thursday would impose a strict new fuel efficiency standard, but many automakers appear grudgingly ready to accept the challenge.
The legislation, which passed 235 to 181, would boost the corporate average fuel economy (Cafe) standard for cars and light trucks to 35 miles per gallon by 2020, about a 40-percent increase over current standards 27.5 miles per gallon for cars and 22.2 miles per gallon for trucks.
The White House is opposed to such strict regulations, with President Bush threatening to veto the energy bill in its current form. It also is expected to face a filibuster in the Senate.

Apple makes the most sought after gadgets on the planet, but they may be about to pull the plug on one that helped get the revolution rolling.
Rumor has it that the iPod Classic (and iPod Shuffle) may be discontinued.
Apple sells millions of iPods, but the Classic and Shuffle don't have touchscreens, which are the interface of the present and future.
CNET's Crave gadget blog notes there's no mention of iPod news in the upcoming Oct. 4 Apple press conference, where details of the iPhone 5 will be announced.
The iPod first appeared 10 years ago … a long time in tech circles … and Apple would rather folks buy an iPhone (or iTouch) than an iPod, which contributed a mere 8 percent of the company's revenue.
Crave has a great Steve Jobs quote: "Just get rid of the crappy stuff and focus on the good stuff."
The iPod Classic can hold 120 gigabytes of music … which I think is really good, but probably not enough to keep it from going the way

Things to Consider When Purchasing a Door Skin for Your Ride
Much like any part of your vehicle's exterior, the door skin can get dents and paint chips, making it look unsightly. Road mishaps can also totally wreck the door skin. If any of these happens to you and you're now in need of a replacement, there are some things to keep in mind so you'll get the best value for your money.
Types of door skin
- Stainless steel
Door skins made of this material are perfect for vehicles with steel body panels. Many stainless steel door skins are primer coated to prevent rust and to make painting the skin's surface easy, especially for DIYers. Door skins that have gone through salt-spray test are great buys because of their resistance to corrosion. There are also stainless steel door skins with holes for door handle and side molding and provisions for belt and sash molding, making it easy for you to install the door handle and fit in the molding just in case you'll decide to outfit your ride with these add-ons.
- Fabric
When looking for fabric door skins for your soft top, make sure you'll get those made from high-grade, durable fabrics that can resist stretching and fading. For easy installation, you can go for units that come with hook and loop fasteners. Make sure also that the window material used is approved by the Department of Transportation. To achieve good looks, purchase a fabric door skin that matches your soft top's appearance.
Warranty coverage
This is a guarantee that the automotive product you'll get is free from manufacturing and material defects, so the longer the warranty coverage, the better.
If you will look through an online catalog to search for a door skin that will fit your ride and your needs, among the brands you'll see are Smittybilt, AutoTrust Gold, Bestop, Replacement, and Rugged Ridge. You can check some forums, review sites, and blogs to know which among these brands are reliable enough when it comes to automotive door skins. You can also visit the website of each brand to know if a particular company can be trusted or not.

Easy, No-Weld Door Skin Fix
A dented car door is not a pretty sight. But if you do not have the time and resources to replace your entire door, you can use a new door skin to revive it. Forget about welding! Automotive adhesives alone can do the job right, even better. So put your DIYer hat on and let's start this easy no-weld door skin replacement.
Difficulty level: Moderate
Tools that you'll need:
- Safety glasses and gloves
- Torch
- Special drill bit or resistance spot welder
- Gas duster or compressed air
- Corrosion primer
- Epoxy primer
- Hammer and chisel
- Door skin kit
Step 1: Detach the dented door from your car. Using your tools, carefully remove the inner door panel, window glass, side mirror, door lock, and handle. Keep them for reassembly later.
Step 2: Wear safety glasses and gloves then grind off the edges of the door skin all the way around. Using a torch, loosen the brazed joints at the top corners of the window opening and at the crease above the door. Drill the spot welds using a special drill bit or a resistance spot welder to keep the frame undamaged.
Step 3: Pry the skin off the door. Clean the inside part of the door with compressed air. Next, clean the doorframe.
Step 4: Coat the door frame with corrosion primer. This will prevent it from rusting. Now, set up the new door skin. Spray epoxy primer on both sides of the door frame and the door skin before putting them together.
Step 5: Install a panel stiffening material or automotive adhesive to the inside of the door skin. Some door skin kits include this.
Step 6: Using a door crimping tool, hem the tab around the door frame. This will keep the door flat.
Step 7: Mount the new door skin to the frame. Refinish both the door's interior and exterior. Reassemble door.
Through this easy and cheap auto repair, you can give your car a favor. In an hour or so, your car will be back to its original beauty by just spoiling it a bit with a new door skin.
