Law firm expands into Cumbria
Published at 14:13, Monday, 14 January 2013
A Lancashire-based law firm has expanded into Cumbria with the opening of a new Kendal office.
Harrison Drury already employs over 30 staff in offices in Preston and Garstang and will now operate from offices at Mintsfeet Place, on Mintsfeet Road North, in Kendal.
The office will be headed up by Naomi Fell, who joined Harrison Drury in 2012 from Cumbria-based law firm Hayton Winkley.
Mrs Fell has been advising businesses in the Cumbria region since 1986 and says local businesses will benefit from a range of different services, in particular defending businesses against prosecutions by regulatory bodies, and its unique HD Anytime service, which gives businesses its own legal department for a fixed price.
She said: "Businesses that fall foul of rules concerning regulatory bodies, for example the Health and Safety Executive, often have to go outside the county to access specialist legal advice.
"This is an area that Harrison Drury has advised clients on in the North Lancashire and South Lakes area for many years and the new office will be a more convenient location for them.
"Our HD Anytime service will also be of interest to small to medium sized companies as it gives clients access to legal advice around the clock for a fixed monthly fee.
"Clients that have signed up to this service have praised us for challenging the traditional 'on the clock' structure and helping companies get their legal affairs in order at a fraction of the cost. It is a very popular concept."
Some of the areas Harrison Drury specialises in include business disputes, commercial property, mergers and acquisitions and family law.
Mrs Fell added: "The location in Kendal is fantastic. I have been working in this region for 26 years and it is home to some terrific established and new businesses that all require good legal support. The area has weathered the economic storm very well and we hope to add new employees as we grow."

Until the Quiet Comes, 2012
Flying Lotus
Nico here. Mr. Struggan, an avid pilot and horticulturist, unsurprisingly invited me to review Flying Lotus' newest album, Until the Quiet Comes. Flying Lotus' last album before this one, Cosmogramma (2010), was a cool album during a cool time.
Effective music elicits physical reactions. The 5th Dimension makes me dance. This album makes me fall asleep. No surprise, since the album's concept relies heavily on dreams. This is not a negative criticism, I'm just saying this album is a dangerous selection for a solo road trip.
So, It's a sleepy album. No less meaningful, though. "Sultan's Request" has this deep repetitive riff/bass line that lulls the listener like a mantra. Not in a rocking way, but in a sleepy way, even to a point of monotony that begs attention. Interesting effect.
Furthermore, I disagree somewhat with critics who have said this album delves deeper into the jazz influences FlyLo began experimenting with on Cosmogramma. The jazz is there, but I hear a lot more hip hop rhythm on these tracks, albeit abstracted. Even thematically, this album is more hip hop-influenced. Think turntablism. Two of his collaborators, Thom Yorke and Erykah Badu, are good flavors for the songs' drowsy soundscapes. FlyLo is an ascetic, not a baller. "DMT Song" is more introspective trip than psychedelic roller coaster.
On Until the Quiet Comes, Flying Lotus continues to work his butt off and gets us listening in new directions. Thought-provoking music is important, but not always super-fun.
Mr. Struggan sends his High Regards.
Shout out to Plan 9 Music in Richmond, Va., where I bought this album. Helpful staff. Good selection. Be sure to make a visit if you're ever in Carytown.
Siegfried Vol. 1, 2012
Alex Alice
Nico here. As a participant in the Graphic Novel Reading Group at Politics & Prose Bookstore, I read at least one graphic novel per month. Mr. Struggan has invited me to share my criticism of this month's selected reading here.
Alex Alice's Siegfried is the first volume of a three part adaptation of German composer Richard Wagner's Ring Cycle, a pretty grand story to be condensed into 50 pages of comics. Alice weaves the origin-story of Siegfried, a boy who is friends with wolves, raised by an outcast and whose mother was a goddess. Pretty epic.
Unsurprisingly, Alice's art is heavily french-influenced, from the looks of characters to unabashedly cinematic paneling, even to the innocent, hopeful tone of the story. His warm, romantic style is evocative of late '70s heavy metal, The Legend of Zelda, and the art of Disney animated films, an influence the artist credits.
It's a beautiful book. Alice deftly mixes hand-drawn and computer-generated illustration to create evocatively, detailed panels. As good as the graphics are, the quality of the materials used in printing made a huge difference. With a hard cover and glossy pages, no expense was spared.
As strong as the work is, Siegfried may be a little too psyched about itself. Over 60 pages of an interview with Alex Alice and preliminary sketches are nice, but unwarranted. I might expect these extras in a reprint, but not a first edition. As nice as they are, I'd prefer the first edition to let the work speak for itself. That said, it's a great change of pace from diaristic indie comics and more familiar American comic books.
Mr. Struggan sends his High Regards.
Nico here, reporting from Mr. Struggan's Possum Alley bureau in Washington, D.C. In keeping with our new schedule, Mr. Struggan has assigned me a review of Ra Ra Riot's new album, Beta Love, this week. Tuesday morning, I stayed home with a fever of 100.8. Beta Love did not soothe my senses as well as other music could have; it sounds like a quarter life crisis.
The main problem with this release is that it does not offer much sonic or thematic breadth. Lack of lyrical ingenuity could be forgiven if the sounds were more convincing.
"Wilderness" shows me something, but then, the verse line's cheesy, repetitive arpeggio drops in. It doesn't give the listener much to work with. I can't tell whether this is minimalist, or just bad. I'm leaning towards the latter. "I Shut Off" is supposed to be some kind of final-track-of-the-album anthem, but it lacks instrumental backbone. Aside from a few tracks, this album is pretty flat. "When I Dream" showed a lot of promise as the album's single. As lead vocalist Wes Miles switches between alto and falsetto, it creates interplay that is absent from the rest of the album.
Synth rock can be a great genre from bands to tap into. Add some synths and beat, and your average rock group can fill arenas, get people moving, and reach a broader pool of listeners. This summer, Passion Pit's sophomore album Gossamer attained a broader reach emotionally and musically than the group's debut album, showing that the genre doesn't result in being pigeonholed. Ra Ra Riot does not have the same success in their reinvention.
One might expect that after three albums, Ra Ra Riot would know a thing or two about restraint and focus. Many groups come to a point when they jump the shark in their creative direction. Perhaps Ra Ra Riot is there now.
Mr. Struggan sends his Low Regards.
Rabbit, Run, 1960
John Updike
Nico here. As mentioned previously, Mr. Struggan is not terribly familiar with, nor fond of, twenty-first century literature. When I reviewed Stephen Chbosky's The Perks of Being a Wallflower last week, Mr. Struggan stated that it was "not the type of novel [I] should be wasting my time with." This week, he assigned me John Updike's "Rabbit, Run", having read Paul Elie's recent essay in the New York Times Book Review "Has Fiction Lost Its Faith?". I have not read any of Updike's work before, so I took the assignment. Plus, I didn't really have a choice.
Note: Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom, the protagonist in Rabbit, Run, is not to be confused with Jimmy "B-Rabbit" Smith of the 2002 film 8 Mile, although a comparison of the two characters might be an interesting assignment. Moving on…
Updike does a good job of potentially antagonizing readers with Rabbit's general ideas about women and the way he treats them. Janice, his wife, is disregarded as stupid, Mrs. Eccles, the minister's wife, is seen as pompous, and Ruth, Rabbit's lover, is taken advantage of.
Christian elements emerge frequently in the story. Rabbit observes parishioners leaving Sunday service, goes golfing with a minister and contemplates beauty in his self-confident, short-sighted way. The way people talk about Updike's writing, I was expecting something a little more thought-provoking.
Updike's writing can be irritating to read. The humor is there, but I grimaced more than I laughed out loud. Upon review, the plot's interesting parts are less then the sum of the story's whole.
Mr. Struggan sends his Regards
The Perks of Being a Wallflower, 1999
Stephen Chbosky
Nico here. For the first literary review on Regards, I asked Mr. Struggan if I could review the modern cult classic The Perks of Being a Wallflower, by Stephen Chbosky. This fall, I saw the cinematic adaptation of this novel and have been curious about it since.
The film was not my first encounter with Perks. During my freshman year of high school, a classmate recited a poem by Michael, a character who commits suicide in the story, for an oratory contest. Needless to say, the poem is not a bright point. I wholeheartedly congratulate this classmate for for creating an excellently awkward silence in a theatre of approximately 240 students and administrators.
Moments like this real life one are common throughout Perks. Chbosky's novel is made up of letters from Charlie during his freshman year of high school. As Charlie develops as a writer, his morbid observations of adolescence skew more towards inspiring hope.
Is it a happy book? Sort of. It's exciting. The reader roots for a kid who has a lot of strikes against him and achieves a lot in his first year of high school. Charlie's victories remind the reader that milestones in high school lead to things ahead. I think a reader in high school might also be excited about illicit activities they were reading about in the book.
Chbosky, a screenwriter by trade, tells a good story with Perks. The letters make up scenes, and are not drawn out. As opposed to larger acts or chapters, the story moves incrementally and skips from week to week.
I wonder what a reader still in high school thinks while reading it. Are they excited? Are they heartened? Maybe they dwell more on the negative aspects of that period of life. Chbosky believes that if misery has company, all bad things come to pass.
Mr. Struggan sends his High Regards.
Nico here. You might not know this, but our boss, Mr. Struggan, is a huge fan of contemporary pop music. He reached out to me this weekend and asked if I could write a review of Solange's new EP, True, which was released on CD and LP this Tuesday.
Given the creative freedom the format allows, True works as an EP and bodes well for the direction Solange is headed in. Taken as her third album, however, True might be as unbearable as a Ric Ocasek's Beatitude on cassette, a theme-y, period novelty. There have been plenty of bad EPs by great artists. Yeah Yeah Yeah's Machine springs to mind.
Here, Solange draws influence from 80s R&B, Michael Jackson, Pet Shop Boys, even Yeasayer, to create music that's fresh, but forgettable. The tracks are fun and cinematic, a quality the rest of her catalogue has. However, all of these songs are downers—think 808s and Heartbreak—and the emotional range is disappointingly narrow. The sparse beats on some tracks like "Some Things Never Seem To Fucking Work" are ripe for more energetic remixes. I could easily hear any of these songs in the closing credits of an HBO comedy series. The British-accented monologue on "Some Things Never Seem To Fucking Work" transports us to London in 1984.
Like many other EPs, True shows us where Solange is right now. I hope a lot of the musical ideas on these songs will be more fleshed out on her next album. She has successfully broken away from the middle-of-the-road style of her previous work, gone full on into weird soul mode and come out on the other side all the groovier.
Mr. Struggan sends his Regards.

How Does a Self-Taught Computer Geek Get Hired?
samzenpus posted more than 2 years ago | from the self-made-man dept.523
An anonymous reader writes "I'm essentially a self-taught computer geek who started learning BASIC at age 12, but decided NOT to do the traditional computer-nerd thing (comp sci or physics, computer degree, etc.). I've essentially kept up with computers as a hobby, teaching myself web-design, Linux/LAMP, Javascript, and now Drupal. I've worked for a short time at a web dev shop but mostly have just done freelance projects and here-and-there stuff for websites or projects, many of which have gone under or are no longer accessible. I'm creative, have Photoshop/GIMP skills, I'm personable and self-motivated...and I'd like to get a 'real' job now but I don't really look like much on paper — how can I (specifically with Drupal) make myself look good on a CV and/or establish solid credentials that will make people more willing to take a chance and hire me? Will Drupalcon 2012 help me make inroads? Are there other ways to 'prove' myself to be a capable web admin/developer?"

French Mod-chip Maker Divineo Ordered to Pay $9 Million in Fines for Violating DMCA
Categories: Decisions • DMCA-TPM Cases • Modding Cases • Piracy Cases
On September 11, 2006, U.S. District Court Judge Claudia Wilken assessed more than $9 million in penalties against France-based mod-chip maker Divineo for trafficking in mod chips and the associated HDLoader software. HDLoader allows users to copy their games from CD/DVD disks to their hard drive. Despite legitimate use by legions of honest gamers, this mod-chip/software bundle works by circumventing copy protection measures contained on the game CD/DVD and thereby contravenes the controversial DMCA.
Dale's Comment: Mod-chips and software like HDLoader is hated by game developers/publishers because they are commonly used to distribute pirated video games on PS2 consoles. For honest gamers, they are a terrific way to install all purchased games on a hard drive so that they can be quickly and conveniently served up like records in a jukebox. Without it gamers must manually flip game disks each time they want to change the current game.

Gluten-Free Brownies Recipe
These wheat-free brownies made with oat and sweet rice flours can hold their own against traditional recipes. If you love peanut butter cups, swirl peanut, almond, or even cashew butter into the batter to echo the flavors.
What to buy: Oat flour is technically gluten-free but is often processed in facilities with gluten-containing grains, so make sure the label specifies gluten-free oat flour.
Sweet rice flour, also known as glutinous rice flour or mochiko, is produced from sticky rice grains and is gluten-free. It's available at Asian markets in the starch section. Regular rice flour, which is produced from long-grain rice, will not yield the same results.
Xanthan gum is produced from corn sugar and is used as a thickener, stabilizer, and dough binder. You can find it in the baking aisle of natural foods stores.
This recipe was featured as part of our gluten-free photo gallery.
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick), cut into 8 pieces, plus more for coating the pan
- 4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, finely chopped
- 1/3 cup gluten-free oat flour
- 1/3 cup sweet rice flour
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup natural peanut butter, at room temperature (optional)
- Heat the oven to 350°F and arrange a rack in the middle. Coat an 8-by-8-inch square baking dish with butter; set aside.
- Fill a medium saucepan with 1 to 2 inches of water and bring to a simmer over high heat; once simmering, reduce the heat to low. Place the measured butter and chocolate in a large, dry, heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over (but not touching) the water and, using a rubber spatula, stir until the chocolate and butter have completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove the bowl from the saucepan and let the mixture cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, sift the oat flour, rice flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt together into a medium bowl, discarding any coarse bits left in the sifter; set aside.
- When the chocolate has cooled, add the sugar and whisk to combine. Add the eggs and vanilla and whisk until smooth. Stir in the flour mixture with a rubber spatula until evenly combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top. If you're using the peanut butter, drop heaping teaspoonfuls of it over the top of the batter. Drag a knife through the batter in a figure eight to create a marbled pattern.
- Bake until a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

Birthdays are by no means a small thing. At least not to me.
Today my nephew turns 5. This little guy means the world to me. We have a bond unlike one I have with anyone else. He can get me to smile no matter how terrible of a mood I am or how sad I am.
We are going to see Finding Nemo tomorrow for his birthday. My sister heard the song "Some Nights" by Fun on the radio and the line "When I look into my nephew's eyes…
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come…" and called me immediately to make sure that Owen and I get our day together. She told me that she immediately thought "I know how important this is, Kate needs to have her day with Owen".
My niece and nephew fill a void in my life. They complete me. Not some jack ass guy.
I'm probably getting all sentimental because Owen's becoming a little man. He's a total goof ball, has been since the day he was born. He's precious to me.

Lund Stem Cell Center
Lund center for Stem Cell Biology and Cell Therapy is one of six Swedish strategic centers of excellence in life sciences, supported by the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research. Established in January 2003, the center focuses on stem cell and developmental biology of the central nervous and blood systems, and development of stem cell and cell replacement therapies in these organ systems as well as research in non-mammalian model systems.
A post-doctoral research position is available in the Glioma Cell Therapy Group lead by Johan Bengzon. The aim of our program is to develop a clinical therapy of invasive brain tumors using tumor-tropic cellular vectors for the delivery of immunostimulatory and tumoricidal substances. Using models of glioblastoma, the most common and aggressive form of primary brain tumour, we currently explore the potential of migratory cellular vector systems that effectively home to tumour microsatellites and eliminate these by delivering antitumor agents. The project is also designed to identify novel target for the development of improved pharmacological treatment of GBM.
Lund Stem Cell Center presents: International Young Investigator Symposium 2014 - Technologies in Stem Cell Research! The Lund Stem Cell Center is pleased to announce the first annual International Young Investigator Symposium consisting of three first authors of key publications in the past year. While senior authors often get the chance to promote high impact work we feel that the scientists behind the actual experiments deserve more exposure. Our theme for 2014 is Technologies in Stem Cell Research and our vision is to stimulate scientific exchange and facilitate future collaborations.
Congratulations to our new Ragnar Söderberg Fellows 2014 Cristian Bellodi and Göran Karlsson! Cristian and Göran received 8 million SEK funding each for their work on post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms that modulate stem cell function and the molecular mechanisms discriminating normal and malignant stem cells, respectively.
A previously unknown mechanism through which the brain produces new nerve cells after a stroke has been discovered at Stem Cell Center and Karolinska Institutet. The findings have been published in the journal SCIENCE.
Ulrich Pfisterer presented his dissertation Direct Conversion of Human Fibroblasts to Induced Neurons in biomedicine focusing Neurobiology. Main supervisor: Associate Professor Malin Parmar. Opponent: PhD Marius Wernig, Stanford. Chairman of the defense: Professor Cecilia Lundberg

Remarks by President Bush and Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki in Photo Opportunity

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following is a transcript of remarks by President Bush and Prime Minister Maliki in a photo opportunity today.
The Waldorf-Astoria
New York, New York
PRESIDENT BUSH: Mr. Prime Minister , it's good to see you again. We generally meet via TV screens, and now it's good to see you in person. And I appreciate your delegation coming. You brought a very distinguished delegation -- ministers in this government, foreign ministers, the Speaker of the Assembly is with us today -- Mr. Speaker , thank you.
We talked about a lot of issues, and spent time talking about reconciliation and law. And the Prime Minister and the Speaker are dedicated to getting good law out of the assembly. And the political parties in Iraq must understand the importance of getting these laws passed. Some politicians may be trying to block the law to gain special advantage. And these parties have got to understand that it's in the interests of Iraq to get good law passed. And so I want to thank you for your dedication and your commitment to laws that will help this young democracy reconcile and move forward.
The Prime Minister and I have talked about a variety of concerns. And I assured him we want his security forces well-trained, mobile and capable of handling Iraqi security on their own. I have made it clear to the American people that our troop levels will depend upon success. When General Petraeus reported to the country, you know, I talked about troops coming home based upon success. And success in Iraq is important to the future of our country, it's obviously important to the people of Iraq .
You're sitting in a vital region and when you succeed -- which I'm confident you will -- it'll send a message to other people who believe in peace. It'll make it easier for people to grow up with a hopeful future in the Middle East . When that happens, it makes America more secure. If we were to leave before the job is done, chaos could ensue, innocent people would lose their life, extremists would be emboldened; nations that are worried about the United States would -- about our commitment, would lose their nerve; the countries of the Middle East would be endangered, and that would cause America to be endangered, as well.
And so we're with you, Prime Minister. We thank you for the courage of the Iraqi people. We expect there to be reconciliation and law, just like you expect there to be reconciliation and law. And I appreciate your time today. Appreciate your remarks yesterday; I thought they were strong remarks about a hopeful Iraq . It's good to be with you.
PRIME MINISTER MALIKI: (As translated.) Thank you very much, Mr. President . I am grateful to be here with you. I thank you for the meeting with your distinguished delegation and with my delegation.
During the meeting with the President we have reviewed a number of issues. We have discussed a variety of issues. All of them are common issues that we strongly believe that they represent the mutual goal that we have, the mutual goal of confronting and defeating terrorism, as well as building and continuing to build the Iraqi institutions and the Iraqi government.
The Iraqi side is fully prepared to assume all the responsibilities and to work for a better future for all of Iraq . We have made it very clear and emphasized that the future of Iraq goes through the gates of national reconciliations, of political agreements. That is the way to make the states and that's the way to ensure and assure the future of Iraq .
The task before us is gigantic. We have succeeded in ridding Iraq of the dictatorship and the regime that governed there. Now we have another challenge, which is to get rid of terrorism, terrorist organizations. The road will be long; it requires cooperation and the international community in order to uproot terrorism and secure a better future for everyone.

New CD Project in October
We are excited to announce that we will be recording a new CD this fall!I often put ministry before music in terms of funding, but our ministry is ABOUT the music! And it's the songs I write that softens hearts and brings them to Jesus. Two donors have stepped up to contribute significant funds toward this new project. Enough to get us most of the way through! We still need a couple more donors like the first two to complete the project so if God lays that on your heart, let me know - but we are ready to start! Crossroads is excited to partner with us through their studio. Brandon Bee will be producing. Pray for God's anointing, mercy, creativity, humility, wisdom in song selection and decision making...and hopefully, for a new CD release by Christmas!

Opening with ripe cherry notes, well-spiced with pepper, graphite, and clove, over top aromas of dried plum and strawberry and cranberry. �The palate is dominated by an almost visceral layer of mouth-coating tannins and mid-palate flavors of cherry, plum, strawberry, orange peel, and balanced with a bright, palate-lifting acidity. It finishes with long, spicy tannins atop a bright acidity.

2011 Sta Rita Hills "Fiddlestix Vineyard"
This is a bold Pinot Noir, rambunctious in its youth and promising to unfold with grace into its maturity. The nose is densely packed with rich fruits, black cherry, cassis, blackberry, grape blossome, citrus zest, orange blossom, wet slate, cardamom, and blood orange. Intense, fresh fruits lead the palate, settling on the mid-palate with focused, ripe flavors of grape, black cherry, cassis, and currants, intermixed with holiday spice, woody notes, cola, and tobacco notes.

- Our favoriteCatIDined on 10/18/2014We have enjoyed food in Europe and many of the major cities in the U.S. Benvenutis is up to par with all of these places. In fact, it's one of our favorite restaurants and was comparable to an Italian restaurant we enjoyed (twice) in Brünnen, Switzerland. Can't get much more authentic country Italian than that. We also appreciate the attention to detail and the care for the food and its sources. The chefs' creativity is without comparison.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Never disappointsmusicalRachDined on 9/24/2014I've lost track of how many times I've been to this restaurant, but the food is always consistently great! I knock it only slightly on ambiance because for the first time ever we were seated at the booth right behind an employees only space.

The waitress explained their seasonal menu and our appetizer was served quickly after. The water was delicious! This may seem minuscule but Norman dwellers are aware of how hard it is to find bearable tasting water in these parts! All of the waiters and waitresses checked on all their tables frequently and were polite. My girlfriend and I both enjoyed our salads. The entrees were excellent my girlfriend ordered the Angel hair pasta with shrimp and I ordered one of the September specials which was hen. The price was worth every ¢!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

It was not $19 special to me… My wife had her normal lobster pasta dish and loved it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- impressedbeckks13Dined on 8/19/2014I was very impressed with our dinner at Benvenuti's. I can't wait to go back. I'm not much of a pasta person so I had the veggie pizza and it was huge and delicious. My boyfriend had the pasta from hell, I tried it and it was spicy but I expected it to have more of a kick. But everything was yummy, the bread, the parmesan fries and our meals. A+Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Too loud and too expensive!!Cgt69Dined on 8/15/2014We enjoyed the food, although 300.00 for three steak dinners seemed a bit much for how loud it was and and how hard it was to enjoy.

Push to Talk and Muted Speakers
My husband and I both game from the same room. We just switched to TS3 from Ventrilo (overall like TS3 much better). However, I wish to mute my speakers and just listen to everyone through his client (it gets severely annoying when we have an echo from both of our clients going at once). However, when I mute my speakers, my push to talk no longer works and I can apparently not speak. Is there some way to do this besides having to individually mute every single member on the server? This was quite possible in ventrilo.
Thanks for any help!

You have 2 ways :
- Muting each players (manualy) : right click on user > Mute client (not easy way )
- Using the Master Volume Slider
To get it : right click on the toolbar > check Master Volume

Well I'm glad this was here...but seriously the mute speakers should do only that...not mute mic and speakers...TS used to not require this.
Where is this "Master Volume" control...cause this gal is not finding it.

Chan (even in a short informal documentary) was a close reflection of his real self. One son no one knows the true story, I can understand the get off your behind and do something,I did the same with my son and I'm poor! But if fortune had shined on me as it has with Chan I most certainly wouldn't leave him w/o ( work for it deal or something) And then the heartbreaking part cruel refusal of acknowledging his daughter = NO EXCUSE. is this the teaching of Buddism ? I think not. As for charities is admirable, but I've lost respect for a father who denies a child who has no fault in her being here, id say guilty conscious but given what he has done first to his wife and son, but the daughter is the hardest.

And people have finally come around to the fact that he's helping propagate stereotypes of the funny Asian clown-dude. As hardworking as he is and as lovable as he makes himself out to be (his outtakes from the Rush Hour movies are cute, right?), he's really something of an egomaniac and he's always had connections to not so savory folks.

That being said, I'm not opposed to rich folks disinheriting their spoiled children/grandchildren. I think I actually applauded when I read that the old man Hilton had disinherited Paris and the grandkids.inohttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-85632161167608846712012-12-01T08:40:22.277-08:002012-12-01T08:40:22.277-08:00WHOA: People: All she said was that they all look ...WHOA: People: All she said was that they all look alike and was his face photoshopped on to theirs? How the hell is that racist? DA, Rox, there was no innate racism, no outright racism, no racism period. A family looks alike, were they photoshopped?? Says nothing about Asians, or races all looking alike, go have another cup of coffee this is absolutely completely and totally ridiculous! Maybe you're the one that is uncomfortable with your own thoughts and attitudes to be searching so hard for something that is so obviously not there.

 Children of the Rich are doomed. Unless the parents do not give them money, presents, cars, bail money, etc. Kids need boundaries and limits. Not blank checks for the rest of their lives. Anyone remember " About a Boy" where Hugh Grant was the lazy non working rich son of a man who wrote a Xmas song? He had no life, no partner, no friends, just plenty of money, time and boredom. Growing up in Carmel I've dated and been friends with rich kids. Decent ones, but still. Never again! Most of them are just what you'd expect. Spoiled, obnoxious, lazy, wastes of space. Think Brandon "Greasy Bear" Davis. Rude to waiters/service staff, snotty, shallow, arrogant, self important toe rags. I married a normal person for a reason. Rich kids are druggies, drunks, lazy, have no goals, no reason for getting up in the morning, their lives are about showing off to other people what they have and are spent shopping for the next expensive special thing to break up the monotony. I see anorexic rich women jogging all day, at all hours, with nothing else to do. Their lives consist of being hot, being ornaments for the home. Like a pretty sculpture that walks and talks. Shopping, going to lunch, working out, is about all their lives consist of. How boring! I say tell rich kids that they will get the minimum help, that they need to do everything for themselves, like the rest of the world does. Otherwise, why should the kids do anything if everything is already set up for them. Your house, car, and retirement are covered? Then what do they have to work for? Paris Hilton is a rich kid, enough said.

You know it's interesting, because when I read VC's comment, it stung but I was quick to try and rationalise it, "No Rox, she's not trying to be offensive, she's just pointing out a strong family resemblance."

Except, that's not how she's phrased it, because her words were, "And is it me or was Jackie Chan's face Photoshopped on everybody in that picture?" In other words, they all look like Jackie Chan. Whilst the son may have a strong resemblance to both his parents, his wife doesn't look like JC, so you know - this is when we start to go into that grey, murky area, that begins to make some people uncomfortable, and I'm afraid I'm one of those people.

I'm not on this site to look for fights with people, and my initial reaction was to not say anything, lest I offend anyone, ("Now don't go saying what you think Rox, you'll only upset people, just be a quiet, good blogger who only says nice things.") But here's the deal. When DA raised an objection to VC's remark, I felt relieved because I knew, that deep down, I wasn't being irrational or over-sensitive and I decided I didn't want to be quiet any longer.

I'm not comfortable with overlooking casual, innocuous racist remarks irrespective of how innocent or harmless they may appear to be. The innate racism of VC's remark may not have been obvious to some as it was laced with humour, but sadly that doesn't mean to say that it's not there.

I'm not looking to kick off a huge debate about whether or not VC's remark was intentionally racist, and everybody is obviously entitled to his or her own perception. I'm just disappointed that in this day and age, racism can be implied so casually and accepted so easily, and that when challenged, it's those people who are considered controversial.

Having said the above, I don't wish you anything but peace and hope you have a good day.Rox (used to be Roxxx)http://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-84227296558640270352012-11-30T20:31:37.251-08:002012-11-30T20:31:37.251-08:00What an asshole.

He's never had any trouble admitting he doesn't see them, or that they are spoiled, lazy, etc.

I agree that there are a lot of Hollywood brats who could do with some tough love like this but I'm not sure cutting off someone totally is ever the answer. That just sounds like asking for trouble. I remember reading about a rich woman who got angry at her adult son for sponging off her so she just cut his allowance like that, boom, and he ended up becoming homeless because he had no idea how to fend for himself. I think it's a much better idea to start young by not spoiling your kids to hell and back in the first place!Krissiehttp://email@example.com

Last night's Night of DC Entertainment saw the release of a modified Arrow Season Three trailer. All the previous goodies were there, but we got a definite confirmation of who the new season big baddie will be at 2:33 — Ra's al Ghul.
The introduction begins right after the Arrow title card and Season Three premiere date. As voiceovers describe Ra's al Ghul's notorious reputation and myth-like status, the camera focuses in on a lone cloaked figure, sword at his side, standing inside a desolate structure. The camera continues to pan around him showing his decorated black clothing. The final voiceover comes from Oliver stating, "If half of the stories that I have heard about Ra's al Ghul are true … We will all pay." And the shot ends on Ra's al Ghul's ring-adorned hand on the hilt of his sword.
Attending the program, SuperHeroHype was able to get some answers on Ra's al Ghul's involvement in Season Three. Though the cast and creative powers were mostly secretive, they did state that Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman) is a big reason for the appearance of the famous villain:
In his eyes he's just as big a hero as Oliver.
A large chunk of Season Three's story arc will also be dedicated to the relationship dynamics between Merlyn and Thea Queen (Willa Holland) described as:
Having the most dysfunctional father/daughter relationship ever.
As for the good versus evil struggle, series producer Greg Berlanti stated that the plot will boil down to:
Who hates who more … A lot of what we've been doing the last three years has been leading up to this.
Originally a mentor of Bruce Wayne's when he was still training to become Batman, Ra's al Ghul, leader of the League of Assassins, becomes one of the Dark Knight's most dangerous and cunning of rivals. The villainous leader's involvement in Arrow is that he also mentored Malcolm Merlyn, whose alter ego is The Dark Archer, and Sara Lance (Caity Lotz), whose alter ego is the Black Canary. I will spare comic book fans the rest of Ra's al Ghul's history, as he's one of the most famous supervillains in the DC universe. Strangely enough though, this will only be the second time he'll appear in live-action. The first time was by Liam Neeson in Batman Begins and in flashback sequences in The Dark Knight Rises. Going by Arrow's proclivity for realism, it's unknown if the Lazarus Pit will come into play for the series. It'll be interesting to see how they explain his immortality, if they even go down that route.
As for who the actor playing Ra's al Ghul will be, the cast and crew remained silent on that information. We could be in for a surprise.
Season 3 of Arrow will premiere on Wednesday, October 8, 2014 at 8:00PM EST on The CW.

Just as the name suggests we decided to get creative on this Monday as well flip the script for a Reverse NFL Mock Draft. We have taken the draft order and flipped it on its head. The first shall be last and the last shall be first. This idea was stolen from Luke Easterling if you want to follow him on Twitter we suggest it. What would happen if not only were the Seahawks and Broncos playing for a Super Bowl Title but also for the #1 pick. Lets take a look.
1. Seattle Seahawks
Jadeveon Clowney
The Seahawks could look to Sammy Watkins to boost the passing game or Greg Robinson to bolster the offensive line but they love pass rushers and Clowney is just that.
2. Denver Broncos
Khalil Mack
Again Watkins or Robinson make sense but after being shredded by the Seahawks the Broncos bolster their defense once again.
3. San Francisco 49ers
Mike Evans
The 9ers get the big receiver they need to battle with the Legion of Boom in Evans. Adding a top flight corner would also be a good option here.
4. New England Patriots
Sammy Watkins
The Patriots need a receiver and Watkins is generally considered the best in this draft. The Pats would most likely try to trade down here.
5. Carolina Panthers
Greg Robinson
The Panthers don't get Watkins or Evans but get the best left tackle in the draft. Cam Newton takes the card, stiff arms a few assistants and runs it down to Roger Goodell himself.
6. New Orleans Saints
Jake Matthews
The Saints need to continue to protect Drew Brees and Matthews is a solid performer who can play all over the line.

… this bitch.
Finally told my sister about my blog…
LIE TO ME AGAIN, bitch. I DARE YOU.
Keep those curveballs coming life, I will destroy you.
Needless to say, sorry about the teasing Japan, looks like we'll have to wait a little before we finally meet.
And maybe my mamma will be there too! And maybe we'll know what year it is… but not care enough to mention it.
I can't wait for the day.
Speaking of, I wish it was socially acceptable to walk up to a man and flat out ask him if he wants to give you head because that would be kind of great right now.
Actually, I'm pretty sure that would go over decently well.
accurate does even begin to cover it.

Lucentis Approved for Diabetic Macular Edema
FRIDAY, Aug. 10 (HealthDay News) -- Lucentis (ranibizumab injection) has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat diabetic macular edema (DME), an eye condition that could threaten a diabetic person's sight, the agency said Friday in a news release.
The condition occurs when fluid leaks into the macula, the center of the eye's retina. This leads to macular swelling, causing blurred vision.
Diabetes is the leading cause of new cases of blindness among people aged 20 to 74, the FDA said, citing statistics from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Commonly reported side effects of Lucentis include bleeding of the eye's conjunctiva tissue, eye pain, floaters and increased pressure inside the eye.
Lucentis, marketed by San Francisco-based Genentech, was approved previously for wet age-related macular degeneration, and another form of macular edema.

I've recently gotten into pinterest, which probably has something to do with me neglecting my tumblr as of late. Not to worry…after trying it out for the past month or so, I definitely like it, but am running back to tumblr for the long haul.
That said, my pinterest is http://pinterest.com/allyrebecca/.
Feel free to check it out. As you would expect, my "food spotting" board is the one worth looking at.
So if you've ever lived with me, or if you just know me that well, you know that I do not clean often. It's just not in my nature.
The other thing you know is that when I do clean, it tends to become a whole project, because it's the only way I can keep myself entertained. So instead of just taking the hour or two to sweep, dust, and put my clothes away, I have to reorganize everything, including furniture, artwork, etc.
This is what my Sunday has become…a "cleaning" project. The good news is I've made progress. The bad news is that I'm losing interest, which means I'm going to have to start surfing the IKEA website or something to further motivate myself. Maybe I can fit a couch in the corner by the window?
(sigh) Pretty sure cleaning shouldn't end up costing you money…oh well, yet another reason why I shouldn't clean often.

Baked cake or yeast doughnuts are really just cake batter* baked in a doughnut mould. This is a totally acceptable way to have cake for breakfast.
*Unless they're savory doughnuts** like this. Then it's just, uh, savory batter.
**I know what some of you might say but savory doughnuts are not bagels — they're not boiled in water.
***Note: I think I'm breaking a writing rule by having a note within a note. And then a note within a note within a note.
For 6 doughnuts (adapted from Full Circle Magazine, via Shutterbean):
- 1 c. all- purpose flour
- 1/4 c. unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/2 c. low-fat buttermilk
- 1/2 c. packed dark brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 3 tbsp. butter, melted
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 325F. Grease doughnut pan with vegetable oil or cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. In a small bowl, whisk buttermilk, sugar, egg, butter and vanilla until smooth. Add milk mixture to flour mixture; whisk until blended & smooth.
Divide batter into compartments. Bake for 13 to 17 minutes. Cool in pan, 5 minutes. Turn onto cooling rack. Dip into your favorite flavored glaze and decorate with sprinkles.
We typically recognize doughnuts as breakfast food but I always felt like it should be categorized as a dessert. Some food historians have attributed the rise of donuts/doughnuts for breakfast after the invention of the automatic donut machines in the 20's. The accessibility led to an increase in production and availability in American bakeries and coffee shops around the 40's. Doughnuts everywhere! A quick morning breakfast from the nearest coffee shop? Aww, yeah. They can be "nutritious" after all.
P.S. Check out this commercial for doughnut squares.
