See the Cast of 'Airheads' Then and Now
The 1994 film 'Airheads' followed a trio of wannabe hard-rockers played by Brendan Fraser, Adam Sandler, and Steve Buscemi, who take a local radio station hostage in a bid to become famous … of course, things don't quite turn out the way they planned, and when the cops get involved, their hostage demands get a little out of hand. 19 years later, we revisit the cast of this cult comedy classic and see what they're up to now.
Brendan Fraser, Chazz Darby
Then: Brendan Fraser played Chazz Darby (aka Chester Ogilvie), a brooding wannabe rockstar struggling to make it big with his band, the Lone Rangers. He leads his bandmates to hold a radio station in hostage in exchange for playing their demo.
Now: Fraser recently appeared in 'Furry Vengeance' and 'Escape from Planet Earth' (or his voice did, anyway). He also has roles in recent indie releases 'The Pawn Shop Chronicles' and 'A Case of You.'
Steve Buscemi, Rex
Then: Quirky character actor Steve Buscemi played the hotheaded Rex, one of Chazz's bandmates. Buscemi had previously appeared in 'Reservoir Dogs' and 'The Hudsucker Proxy.'
Now: Buscemi stars on HBO's 'Boardwalk Empire,' which is currently wrapping up its fourth season and was recently contracted for a fifth. He has appeared in several films with his 'Airheads' co-star Adam Sandler, including 'Billy Madison,' 'The Wedding Singer,' and the 'Grown Ups' movies.
Adam Sandler, Pip
Then: Former 'SNL' star Adam Sandler played the soft-spoken and sensitive Pip, not your typical hard-rocker, and hardly the kind of guy who would take a radio station hostage.
Now: Sandler went on to launch a very successful and lucrative film career, producing and writing his own films under the Happy Madison banner, like the recent releases 'That's My Boy' and 'Grown Ups 2.' Next he'll reunite with his 'Wedding Singer' and '50 First Dates' co-star Drew Barrymore for the rom-com 'Blended.'
Joe Mantegna, Ian "The Shark"
Then: Joe Mantegna played Ian "The Shark," the radio DJ who tries to help the Lone Rangers get their demo tape played. He had previously appeared in the films 'Bugsy' and 'Searching for Bobby Fischer.'
Now: Mantegna voices Fat Tony on 'The Simpsons' and currently plays David Rossi on the drama series 'Criminal Minds.' He also provided the voice of Grem in Pixar's 'Cars 2.'
Michael McKean, Milo Jackson
Then: Michael McKean was no stranger to rock, having written and starred in Christopher Guest's 1984 comedy classic 'This is Spinal Tap.' In 'Airheads,' he played station manager Milo Jackson.
Now: McKean has appeared in many Christopher Guest films, including 'Best in Show' and 'A Mighty Wind,' and recently starred in his BBC/HBO series 'Family Tree.'
Judd Nelson, Jimmie Wing
Then: 'Breakfast Club' star Judd Nelson played record executive Jimmie Wing, who sports some particularly horrendous facial hair.
Now: Nelson has recently guest-starred on 'Psych' and 'Two and a Half Men,' and will play a pivotal role in the final season of the CW series 'Nikita.'
Amy Locane, Kayla
Then: Amy Locane played Kayla, Chazz's exasperated girlfriend who's fed up with the deadbeat, wannabe rockstar. Locane had previously played Brendan Fraser's love interest in 'School Ties.'
Now: Locane had a recurring role in the 90s on 'Melrose Place,' and appeared in the films 'Bongwater' and 'Secretary.' In 2010, Locane was driving drunk when she collided with another vehicle, killing a 60 year old woman and injuring the woman's husband. Earlier this year, Locane was sentenced to three years in prison for the crime.
Nina Siemaszko, Suzzi
Then: Nina Siemaszko played Suzzi (spelled like Jacuzzi), the ditsy radio station worker who catches Pip's eye. She had previously appeared in 'Reservoir Dogs' with Steve Buscemi, though her scene was deleted.
Now: Siemaszko went on to star in TV shows like 'Sports Night,' 'The West Wing,' 'CSI,' and 'Private Practice,' and she recently had small supporting roles in 'The Artist' and 'The Bling Ring.'

Brillant berries in fall and winter offer exceptional color and interest in the late season garden. Cut branches of berries are prized for Holiday arrangements-remaining berries attract winter birds and returning robins.
Established specimens tolerate pruning, but little is required. Prune for holiday decorations or in late summer. Shape for hedges with shears. Shaping for a hedge on the female will usually be at the expense of berrying.
Our plants are all grown in plantable fiber pots that grow incredibly vigorous plants, eliminate transplant shock, and are 100% biodegradable. They have tremendous advantages over plastic pots.

Experts have said that some thinking about versioning has to be done before making versions. I think that's true. To me, the understandable inertia of the existing client code base seems to be the problem here; maybe combined with OOXML, of which I do not know anything, having been specified (or implemented) without versioning in mind. To my naive eyes, the problem seems local to OOXML, not general to XML. Okay, maybe OOXML is not alone in suffering from this problem. But it is general to published interfaces of all kinds - not to XML. -- Michael Ludwig

OBJECTIFIED: A Documentary Film by Gary Hustwit
This is the greatest documentary I've ever seen. If you're even remotely curious about design or what I'll be studying during the next 4+ years and hopefully be working on for the rest of my life, watch this! Actually, just watch this regardless. It is really inspiring.
Here's a trailer.

The Photographers' Gallery: New Identity by North
After a major redevelopment lasting two years since 2010, The Photographers' Gallery has finally reopened on Ramillies Street, just off Oxford Street, including three floors of galleries, an impressive book and magazine shop, and a cafe run by Lina Stores - Soho's original Italian deli.
Along with the redevelopment of the actual building, North were given the task of creating a new identity for the gallery to replace the old 'holding' identity they made before. This was actually one of the projects I was involved with when I worked at North last summer. As they were in the early stages of creating the new identity, I was mainly dealing with the logo - somehow utilising the idea of incorporating some kind of framing system like the shapes you find in a viewfinder inside a camera.
Of course North developed what I had helped with after I finished the internship, so I was pretty excited to see what they did with it and what route they took when the gallery opened to the public last month in May. After visiting it a few times since opening, I've come away very impressed on all occasions. The logo looks fantastic, especially on the side of the building viewable from Oxford Street and the signage inside looks very smart. The way the 'frames' inside the logo have been incorporated within the pictograms of the toilet signs and the leaflets is really nice and clever and the graphics on the mirror in the lift is a really nice touch too. It's all very fresh which is really what The Photographers' Gallery needed after the redevelopment.
The actual exhibition is also pretty incredible. It's currently showing a collection of large-format, beautifully crisp images under the theme of 'Oil' by Edward Burtynsky which is definitely a must-see which will last until July 1st.
See better images of the new identity shot by Lee Mawdsley here on the Creative Review website and more information on the current exhibition here. I'll also be posting a few of the images above as a photo post soon so you can view them bigger.

Symptoms of Black Mold in HVAC System
Symptoms of black mold - General information
Molds reproduce by creating tiny spores. These spores constantly waft through the indoor and outdoor air and if they land on a damp area indoors, they instantly begin to grow and multiply, using what they are growing on to survive. Bacteria, mold and mildew are living organisms that can thrive on almost any surface, requiring only dampness and a source of food, making air conditioning an ideal location for bacteria and mold to develop.
Symptoms of black mold in A.C system
Mold is able to grow on all parts of heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems.
If insulation is present, mold is likely to grow there. Otherwise, it's probable that mold will grow in the cooling coil or condenser, and the drain pan. These are found in the air handler in central air systems.
Air entering the system under the dew point is cooled by the cooling coil so condensation in the air is removed. This results in condensation building up on the coil which exposes it to potential biological of living organisms including mold bacteria.
Under the coil is the drain pan and here any drops of condensation from the coil is collected. The water found in the drain pan can serve as the optimum conditions for mold to grow. This is especially true if the pan is flat, where the stagnant water increases the possibility of mold growth. An in-duct humidifier can add excess moisture to the ducts and, when joined with grime and dirt, mold can develop in the ducts.
Mold can Grow Anywhere
Symptoms often associated with black mold and bacteria development in AVAC systems (phenomenon known as the "Sick Building Syndrome):
Due to a variation in people's sensitivities, it is accepted that one person may suffer from the symptoms above when another person in the same region may not suffer from any symptoms.
Most susceptible people to poor indoor air quality are:
A few simple steps can help you keep your domestic and central HVAC system free of all unwanted growth of black mold, mildew and bacteria development, and the outburst of illnesses associated with poor air coning from the air conditioning system.
1. Maintain clean filter in the unit constantly.
2. Have the unit inner coil (evaporative coil) cleaned every 3-4 month using the suitable product according to the coil condition – if coil has only a light layer of dust, the Eco-Clean should be sufficient to have it clean, if the coil accumulated a thick layer of dust and organic sediment then a foaming product like the Gab-Coil should be implicated in order the extract deposits from deep in the coil.
3. When the coil is clean, the unit should be disinfected. The Clean-Air is a biocide, eliminating and controlling future growth of organic contaminants that frequently cause poor indoor air quality and "sick building syndrome" at the source of the system. Clean-air eliminates mold, mildew and slime deposits. Clean-Air is a user friendly formula so evacuating the premises during application is unnecessary. Application is by the sprayer provided or using any manual or electrical sprayer for central air conditioning units.
4. After coil has been disinfected unit drain pan should be treated. Placing the Pan-Clean-Tab will prevent any damage caused by plugged drains and keep you drain pan mold and bacteria free for up to 6 month.
Keeping these simple steps will insure a safer and better air quality in your indoor environment and help you protect your family from the risks associated with the Sick Building Syndrome.

What nobody shows us here in the U.S. http://www.thenausea.com/elements/usa/iraq%202004/11/fallujah1.htm .
All I ask is that you make up your own minds about the wars we are
involved in and how you would feel and act if our Country was invaded by an
Aggressor that wanted to change the way we have lived for the past few hundred
years . The countries we are invading have been around for thousands of years
,yes under different names but here on earth and existing without "Americans" .
This Country was started by an Invading force from England Puritans, Pilgrims
.They brought so much Disease with them that they wiped out almost all original
Settlers and 90% of the Natives they came in contact with . The other natives
they tried to kill . How many of you know the REAL STORY of Thanksgiving?
Read it here if you dare to learn the truth .
Most of us associate the holiday with happy Pilgrims and Indians sitting down to
a big feast. And that did happen - once.
The story began in 1614 when a band of English explorers sailed home to England with a ship full of Patuxet Indians bound for slavery. They left behind smallpox which virtually wiped out those who had escaped. By the time the Pilgrims arrived in Massachusetts Bay they found only one living Patuxet Indian, a man named Squanto who had survived slavery in England and knew their language. He taught them to grow corn and to fish, and negotiated a peace treaty between the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag Nation. At the end of their first year, the Pilgrims held a great feast honoring Squanto and the Wampanoags.
But as word spread in England about the paradise to be found in the new world, religious zealots called Puritans began arriving by the boat load. Finding no fences around the land, they considered it to be in the public domain. Joined by other British settlers, they seized land, capturing strong young Natives for slaves and killing the rest. But the Pequot Nation had not agreed to the peace treaty Squanto had negotiated and they fought back. The Pequot War was one of the bloodiest Indian wars ever fought.
In 1637 near present day Groton, Connecticut, over 700 men, women and children of the Pequot Tribe had gathered for their annual Green Corn Festival which is our Thanksgiving celebration. In the predawn hours the sleeping Indians were surrounded by English and Dutch mercenaries who ordered them to come outside. Those who came out were shot or clubbed to death while the terrified women and children who huddled inside the longhouse were burned alive. The next day the governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony declared "A Day Of Thanksgiving" because 700 unarmed men, women and children had been murdered.
Cheered by their "victory", the brave colonists and their Indian allies attacked village after village. Women and children over 14 were sold into slavery while the rest were murdered. Boats loaded with a many as 500 slaves regularly left the ports of New England. Bounties were paid for Indian scalps to encourage as many deaths as possible.
Following an especially successful raid against the Pequot in what is now Stamford, Connecticut, the churches announced a second day of "thanksgiving" to celebrate victory over the heathen savages. During the feasting, the hacked off heads of Natives were kicked through the streets like soccer balls. Even the friendly Wampanoag did not escape the madness. Their chief was beheaded, and his head impaled on a pole in Plymouth, Massachusetts -- where it remained on display for 24 years.
The killings became more and more frenzied, with days of thanksgiving feasts being held after each successful massacre. George Washington finally suggested that only one day of Thanksgiving per year be set aside instead of celebrating each and every massacre. Later Abraham Lincoln decreed Thanksgiving Day to be a legal national holiday during the Civil War -- on the same day he ordered troops to march against the starving Sioux in Minnesota.
This story doesn't have quite the same fuzzy feelings associated with it as the one where the Indians and Pilgrims are all sitting down together at the big feast. But we need to learn our true history so it won't ever be repeated. Next Thanksgiving, when you gather with your loved ones to Thank God for all your blessings, think about those people who only wanted to live their lives and raise their families. They, also took time out to say "thank you" to Creator for all their blessings.
For More information go to
As a person with Native American blood I find invasion of any Country and Murder of Women , Children and people trying to protect what is theirs a disgrace . Those that just follow blindly and accept it as "The American Thing to Do" and want to call me "Un American" , I am not Un American or Anti American . I am a person of peace that believes that war begets war and hatred creates hatred of any type . We are teaching the children of the countries that we invade to hate America. WE are pushing the next generation of kids in these countries to try by any means to get back at those that killed , tortured and maimed Them, their Mothers and Fathers and Family members . WHAT WOULD YOU DO in their situation ?

These Teen Lyric poems are examples of Lyric poems about Teen. These are the best examples of Teen Lyric poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
(Chorus): Never thought I'd fall in love with my best friend
Sit on the phone and talk for hours about anything
He knew everything about me
He was there through my ups and downs
But I found out he fooled around
I'd never thought I'd fall in love with my best friend
(Verse 1): Its sad how things change
Seems like I want to put things back in reverse
Now that I see I feel my love life is a curse
So many times he say he'd stick by my side
There wasn't anything I never had to hide
I never thought I'd find myself in love with you
Now what am I going to do
(Bridge): I go back and look at the relationship
you left me over someone you never met
tell me how did you fall in love over the internet
Why did you do this to me
Boy it cost so much stress
My heart is broken and I'm in so much mess
Never thought I'd fall in love with my best friend
(Chorus): Never thought I'd fall in love with my best friend
Sit on the phone and talk for hours about anything
He knew everything about me
He was there through my ups and downs
But I found out he fooled around
I'd never thought I'd fall in love with my best friend
(Verse 2-Rap): Its crazy how you say its not me, its you so please don't take it the
wrong way
Then, I sit and I wonder how in the world you can say this to me
Now wondering, asking myself how can I make you stay
When you was leaving me for this other chick
Now you don't even want to pick up the phone
Boy I know you at, I'm here all alone
So you sit there and ignore me baby
I thought I was supposed to be your one and only lady
Now I have to sit here and pretend like nothing ever happened
Tell me how am I supposed to deal with this boo
Im so in love with you
you left me for who?
The answer just hurt me so bad
Now we doing another sad love song
How are you to tell me who was wrong or right
These words I write are quite contrite
But since Im not the jealous type
I'll let it fly
Its sad how you did me baby boy
I have lost the will to change
Taking the path that leads to nowhere
The darkness is taking over
something i cannot repair
If it is to be broken
Drowning in the sorrow
I cannot give in
Take the fall and run to the heavens
Im never going to bow
Im never going to break
I will not fall
I will not fade
I was made to take your breathe away
Whenever my hope is lost
Thats my chance to run for cover
Light the fuse and burn it up
I dont want to change the world
I just want to make it colder
Watching the end
With our dying eyes
Tell me where forever lies
Your sweet nectar
wraps around my senses
like jungle vines
steady drums beating
Your heart near mine
Your strong hands
hold me suspended
by my waist
Just enough pain and strength
against my supple skin
For my taste
The musk of your
sculpted body and the forest
has me going wild
But yet, the tender way you
protect me, reminds me of
Being a child
A safe familiarity
with a strain of animalistic
Your invisible hold over me
leaves me arrow poisoned
Unable to function
My long dark hair wraps you
with smells of coconut and ocean Sun
your locks full of mud and enemies
together, my warrior
We make One
I just want my summertime
To be at a stand still.
Sometimes, when women cross my mind,
I'm not sure just what to feel.
I'd like to call her friend,
And I want us to mean something.
I can find several, yet in the end,
It seems like all I have is nothing.
So where is the evidence
That says I should move forward?
Show me a sign that's heaven sent;
A point I should move toward.
©2013 Honestly JT
As I place the pen
on paper
my soul beings
to bleed
upon the pages
my secret longings
hopes and dreams
of which I hope to be,
how I want to reflect me
transpire into the universe
within my poetic lyricism
the warm sweet smoke
of my vega blunt
swirls about me, flickers
in and out of motion
as the vanilla candle nearby
fights the shadows in my room
the cool summer breeze
from my window
carries dancing sinsemilla
fog around me, allowing
my mind
to adventure elsewhere
into the nights abyss
of minutes, turned to hours
I write
pages, of words
scribbling my life, struggles
and fears
Bob Marley and Lauryn Hills
"turn your lights down low"
beat inspirational peacefulness
on my eardrums
my small hands delicately pluck
my imaginary guitar strings
as I join her in a solo, Miss Hill's
magical voice cracks
with emotion, and my soul
tingles with excitement
For creativity flows
within my veins
I breath real music, such as
she, as soon as daylight opens
thine dark brown eyes to see
The poetic flowetry, carries me
and speaks to me
the notes capture my inner
disturbance and desires
until the soundtrack of my day
takes me into Summers night
thoughts of my dreams
of being a published poet
clearly float
into my sight
Then, I sit
as I place my pen
upon the paper
black and white turn to one
and my soul bleeds
onto pages
into an early sun
The missing light,
What's behind.
Just believe,
That love comes again...
The skies,
Are like a hard glide,
In a shining rainbow's light...
All dreams and fantasies,
Can be reality,
'Cause fantasy,
Is based on reality...
But all histories aren't the same...
Sometimes, we dive,
In our lives...
Don't judge,
For what you see,
For what it is...,
'Cause time passes,
But, memories remain...
To your heart,
The body, does,
The mind, thinks,
And, the heart, feels...,
While, the soul, lives...
Always remember,
To remember the past,
To live the present,
And to wait and pursue the future...
Listen to your heart,
Before you are telling goodbye,
'Cause destiny,
Might lead to demise...,
But, remember that destiny can be changed...
Life is unpredictable,
But space and time,
Could be controlled...
And even if some die,
We may survive...
That life,
Might have an endless beginning...
All that remains,
Is to be reborn...
her life is on the tip of his tongue
the sparkle leaves her eyes
an arrow to his chest
drawing her to her death
a feather falling from the sky
the death of an angel
her wings turn blood red
like the color of the red sea
the sword drawn out of the ground
by her own hands
what he could not do himself
she has done for him
He falls unto to his knees
the arrow she had put into his chest
the greatest of betrayals
She asked for her death wish
Holding the ring in her palm
He looks into her eyes
watching the love she had left for him disappear
Falling into despair
Her face hitting the ground
Blood surrounded her body
He watched as she died
He couldn't move from the love that had pierced his chest
I will take this challenge on.
I want to save you,
I want you to make it through alive.
I know the person you are,
I know what you think of,
I know what you want to do.
I am here for you, and you know that.
I always have been here for you,
And i always will be here for you.
God is there for you.
You cant say that you are alone,
Because your not,
you have me, and you have God.
I know you may not have your parents,
But you have us.
We are your army,
We will protect you from evil.
We will save you from yourself.
We will keep you alive.
I will take this challenge on.
I want to save you,
I want you to make it through alive.
I know the person you are,
I know what you think of,
I know what you want to do.
I know all you want to do is die.
I know you just want to end it all.
But i could not live without you.
I need you just as much as you need me.
I will fall apart if you are not here with me.
We both are having the same problems.
We have to get through this together.
I dont want to hear the words "Good-bye" come out of your mouth.
I dont want to find you dead on the floor surrounded by blood.
You know that will tear me apart.
And i know if you ever saw me like that it would tear you apart too.
Lets make a promise that neither of us will ever see one of each other like that.
Not unless the impossible happened.
I want to help you.
I dont want you to leave the world in this way.
I want you to live life to its fullest.
I Love You, and i want to see you live.
I will take this challenge on.
I want to save you,
I want you to make it through alive.
I know the person you are,
I know what you think of,
I know what you want to do.
I am here for you, and so is God.
Never forget that.
Remember that you are not alone.
Your not alone.
So much I wanted to say. So much I wanted to shout.
It was like being trapped behind bars without a way
to get out.
My mind going wild with all these questions of why.
The only way to escape was to fall asleep or to cry.
What did I do so bad that made me have to pay?
My friends, my dreams, and my life was swepped away.
I know I can do it! I try and I try.
Nothing seems to get better. I sometimes wish
I would Die.
Starved for attention. I wanna talk to the world.
I just miss being loved. Miss the warmth of a girl.
Snickers and stairs is what my life has become.
I'm treated like I'm a kid, like I'm sick, or I'm dumb.
One day to the next. Life becomes work just to be alive.
I thank god for my blessings. I thank god I survived.
I finally see some improvement. More hope tickles
my brain.
It was worth all the time, all the tears, all the pain.
I awake with a smile and new hope to move on.
I did it! I did it! All those hard times are gone!
Before you came along
everything was going all wrong
i didn't know what to do
but that was before i knew i needed you
i would walk down the streets all alone
going every where but home
before you came along
i would turn my face to the sky
wishing i could tell this world a quick goodbye
before you came along
i would fall down
so far down i had to look up
to see the ground
but before i could shed another tear
you were here
holding me in your arms
you had finally come along
just in time to help me be strong
i love u
now u are ready to go
i did something,
i guess ill never know
this has all played out like a bad song
because now your going

I've developed a habit of picking up bottles out of the street near my house and tossing them in the recycling. It's a simple way to make the environment a little better; why would anyone not want to do that?

I used to call it 'getting paid to go for a hike' when we would cash in the beer bottles- I wish I had a picture of my now college age son, coming off the trail with a bag of litter he had picked up almost as big as him- (he was 3 then) can you say proud Papa?

Great! It is very nice to see writers and bloggers taking the initiative to prevent pollution and safeguard our environment. I certainly second this practice. Everyone should make it a habit. If you see litter, you should pick it up.

It is a useful message which is shared for awareness because we have to play our role as social person, as educated person and save this environment from noise, water, air and heat pollutions. I read an article on bestessayservicesreviews.com in which they demonstrated how water is polluted every day and there will be time soon when world would fight for this water. So best thing is to take care of our environment and become role model for all.

Count your friends
When it's dark and gloomy
When the clouds are gray and smoky
When the storms are heavier than normal- count your friends.
Count your friends
When depression has taken over you
When your back is numb and your demeanor has fallen
When the light on your path has gone off and you're left with no way out- count your friends.
Count you friends
When your image has fail
When your personality no longer matters
Not when the money is like waters.
Count your friends
When you have nothing to offer
Not when it is surplus to dish out.
Know me today, not tomorrow
Know me when I'm poor, not when I'm rich
Cause there is no second chance for selfish friends.

Agriculturalists and pastoralists: Bronze Age economy of the Murghab alluvial fan, southern Central Asia

Archaeological investigations of pastoral economies often emphasize exchange relations with agricultural populations, though for Bronze Age Eurasia the notion of a ubiquitous 'pastoral realm' has masked various forms of mixed subsistence economies. In Central Asia, there are few attempts to specifically identify the domestic crops utilized by mobile pastoralists or what they may suggest about the role of agriculture in mobile pastoral production or subsistence strategies. This study reports the macrobotanical remains from two Late/Final Bronze Age (ca. 1950–1300 bc) mobile pastoralist habitation sites in the Murghab alluvial fan region of southern Turkmenistan. We compare our results with published macrobotanical data from contemporary agricultural settlements in the Murghab region, as well as with other sites in broader prehistoric Eurasia. We find that mobile pastoralists in the Murghab utilized some of the same domestic crops as their sedentary neighbors. While the data presented here do not preclude the possibility that mobile pastoralists may have practiced some low-investment cultivation (particularly of millet), we hypothesize an economic model that places mobile pastoralists in direct contact with nearby sedentary farming communities through exchange for pre-processed grains. These results highlight one of the possible strategies of mobile pastoral subsistence in Central Asia, and are a further step toward identifying the various degrees of agricultural involvement in the conceptually outdated pastoral realm of Eurasia.

It's hard getting ready for kindergarten. There might be a few tears, a little bit of anxiety and some attempts to get out of going. It's hard for the kids, too.
And yet, Luke Bryan had no choice but to get ready for this -- the inevitable day when his oldest son, Bo, headed off to kindergarten.
On the same Friday that Bryan was performing on Good Morning America's Summer Concert Series (Aug. 8), his son Bo was back home heading out the door to his first day of school. Bryan told ABC News Radio that Bo was much more prepared than he was at that age.
"He's gone to pre-K ... to kinda get going. I mean, my mother woke me up one day and says, 'Alright, you're going to school today.' That didn't go well with me," he recalled.
One thing I'm pretty sure of is that the little Bryan will be an expert when it comes to the arts and crafts part of his kindergarten day. Remember in April when he "decorated" the keys of Bryan's piano at home with a couple of markers?
Bryan also told ABC News Radio that as he was getting ready for the GMA concert, he was watching the fans line up to come into Central Park for the show.
"You never get tired of it. It always kind of puts a little warmth in your heart," Bryan said, "and you just feel good when you know you've got a lot of fans that love you."

Recipe: Whipped Feta Dip
Recipes from The Kitchn
I don't remember when I first heard about whipped feta. It crept into my culinary consciousness, thanks perhaps to Gaby, or Jessica, or Ina herself. I wish I could remember; I really ought to thank whoever it was first turned me on to this snap-easy dip, tangy and creamy and ready for spring vegetable dipping.
A homemade dip is a smart thing to make at the beginning of the week and put away in the refrigerator. I carry little cups of dip to my desk and use them as an excuse to eat piles of cucumber slices and snap peas. The right dip, like this one, is also a lovely sandwich spread, and delicious scraped over toast with a slice of tomato on top.
But this whipped and creamy feta dip really shines as a party appetizer. It's so incredibly easy (blend feta and cream cheese — add more flavorings, if desired, or not). It's good served with everything from pita chips to sliced vegetables. I like to serve it in a Mediterranean trio with hummus and baba ghanoush. It can be made several days ahead and served at your leisure, which is the final and most important mark of a good appetizer. This is creamy and tangy and tasty — what more do you want at a party, or during your afternoon Snack Hour?
Whipped Feta Dip
8 ounces feta cheese, softened at room temperature for 1 hour
4 ounces cream cheese, softened at room temperature for 1 hour
1 to 3 tablespoons milk
1 lemon, zested
1/4 cup finely chopped chives
1/4 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
Freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil, to garnish
Ground sumac or cayenne, to garnish
Blend the feta cheese in a small food processor until it breaks up. Add the cream cheese and continue blending for 4 to 5 minutes, adding milk if necessary to keep the mixture smooth.
When the cheese is whipped and and very smooth add the lemon zest, chives, salt, and a generous quantity of black pepper. Blend to combine then transfer to a serving dish and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Dust lightly with ground sumac or cayenne, if desired.
Serve with chopped vegetables, pita chips, or or toasted baguette.

Laugh with me: at first glance I read "whipped fetal dip" and then had to look again.
Seems very tasty; will definitely try it.
I've been looking to add to my dip repertoire and I think this is exactly the thing I've been looking for!
Thanks doll,
The Glamorous Housewife
I must be one of the only people in the world that doesn't like whipped feta. This one has more tasty ingredients though so maybe I'll give it a second go.
This works with just about any goat cheese and is delish!
Cava in D.C. has a similar feta dip called 'Crazy Feta'. The 'crazy' is roasted jalepenos...amazing.
Whipped feta dip is amazing eaten with gently boiled beet roots.

When a team loses 99 games and is out of contention for a playoff spot seemingly in early August, you assume they don't just lose big. You assume that they find new ways to lose because of how horrific the season is going. In some of those 99 losses last season for the White Sox, they did find new ways to lose. So far in 2014, they have found new ways to win.
The Sox came back from two runs down to win in 11 innings on Wednesday afternoon against the Minnesota Twins. The way they won is the headline of the day. With two outs in the bottom of the 11th inning, Leury Garcia was on third and Adam Dunn was at the plate. Dunn walked, but ball four got away Twins catcher Kurt Suzuki and Garcia scored to give the Sox a 7-6 extra-inning win in the second game of the season.
The Sox had their struggles today, but found a way to stay unbeaten through the first two games of the season. In innings 3-8 today, the Sox had just two hits. They committed their first two errors (one by Garcia and one by Adam Eaton in the seventh inning). The major concern from today was the bullpen.
After Felipe Paulino went 5 1/3 innings in his first start since 2012, the bullpen could not hold the lead at 3-2. Maikel Cleto did log two key outs to end the sixth inning, but chaos ensued in the top of the seventh.
The Sox sent three arms to the hill in the seventh inning. Scott Downs began the inning by walking Joe Mauer. Downs' day was done after one hitter.
Nate Jones came in for Downs, and things got a little chaotic. Jones walked Josh Willingham and gave up a ground-rule double to Jason Kubel to tie the game. Jones' day ended after he gave up a two-run single to Trevor Plouffe.
Daniel Webb was able to get the Sox out of the seventh and eighth innings without any further damage.
Adam Dunn hit his first home run of the season in the eighth, and after Suzuki's double gave Minnesota a 6-4 lead in the ninth, the Sox got going thanks to some familiar faces. Paul Konerko led off the inning with a pinch-hit single, Dayan Viciedo ripped a liner to left and Garcia brought home Adrian Nieto (who pinch-ran for Konerko) to cut the Twins lead to a run.
After a wild pitch (yes, it was a trend today) that moved the runners to second and third, Eaton hit a soft chopper to Plouffe at third and Plouffe made a bad throw that got away from Suzuki at home plate.
In all sports, you're never going to always win in a beautiful fashion. Sometimes in sports, you have to find a different way to win.
By the Sox doing that on Wednesday, we get treated to an awesome Ken "Hawk" Harrelson reaction to end the game.
(Side note: The "Tweet of the Day" may have gone to CSN Chicago's Jen Lada on Wednesday's Sox/Twins attendance.)

"The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows & the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years."
"I like being a woman, even in a man's world. After all, men can't wear dresses, but we can wear the pants."
— Whitney Houston
"The most important thing to remember is that you can wear all the greatest clothes and all the greatest shoes, but you've got to have a good spirit on the inside. That's what's really going to make you look like you're ready to rock the world."

"I have always believed that fashion was not only to make women more beautiful, but also to reassure them, give them confidence."

Value Proposition: 4 key questions to help you slice through hype
I was originally going to write this blog post to help marketers spot hype in their green marketing claims.
But then, I had an epiphany.
Why focus exclusively on green marketing that may have gone awry at the fringes?
Hype in marketing is far from exclusive to the green crowd and honesty is needed in every claim your marketing makes.
I decided to think a little bigger – much bigger – by sharing four key questions you should ask about any marketing claim to help you slice through hype and deliver true value to customers.
Question #1. Is our claim tangible?
Our senses love being rewarded, so if your claim offers tangible value, the nature of it should connect directly to the customer experience.
For example, let's look at the copy above from a recent experiment on green marketing.
The "green value" is in the nature of the manufacturing process and is directly connected to the quality of the product.
This leaves one more thing to consider when crafting tangible claims: Does the nature of the claim actually make the end product more appealing?
Question #2. Is our claim relevant to customers' needs?
I like these examples because all of them, while noble in cause, do not directly connect to a relevant problem a customer is having.
For example, I live in Florida and my desire to avoid sunburns gives the SPF of a sunscreen a greater relevance to my needs than just about any other claim.
Consequently, this is where focusing on claims that are relevant can mitigate the risk of associating products with ideas or causes that are abstract.
A biodegradable pen is nice to have. A biodegradable pen with 12% more ink than the next guy is even better.
The power of relevance rests in crafting copy that deals directly with any key concerns already present in the mind of a customer.
