Ha, the event takes place at Midnight Shift, which I went to with a friend when I was in Sydney. The friend said the bar is known as "Chopsticks and Walking Sticks." I laughed. Why are stereotypes both funny and offensive?

Staying on the Galapagos Islands
Every year 100,000 tourists visit the Galapagos Islands National Park, with 70% of them staying on cruise ships, boats, or yachts. They tour the islands by day and sleep on the vessels by night. Though they see a lot, it is often a hurried itinerary, packed with activities and constant transfers from the boat, to the dingy, to the island, and back. Then it is off to the next island to do it all over again.
Perhaps one of the greatest and most overlooked experiences on the Galapagos Islands is just staying put and not racing from one island to another. Two islands are best positioned for enjoying all of the Galapagos: Isabela and Santa Cruz.
Isabela Island is home to about 3,000 habitants, who live principally in Port Villamil and neighboring Santo Tomas, at the southern tip of the Island.
Six volcanoes have given and continue to give Isabela its shape, that of a sea horse. The Sierra Negra Volcano in the southern half of the Island is just north of Port Villamil. The mouth of the volcano, is more than 11 kilometers (six miles) across, making it the second largest volcanic crater in the world (first is the Ngorogoro Volcano in Africa). An interesting day trip is to visit on horseback.
Like the other islands, Isabela is a place to see wildlife, especially the famous Galapagos tortoises. It is home to more giant tortoises than all of the other islands combined. You can see them in the wild or visit the Arnaldo Tupiza Breeding Center where species from all five islands are held in captivity.
Tagus Cove, in the Bolivar Channel that separates Isabela from neighboring Fernandina Island, contains the coolest and most productive waters, home to dolphins and as many as sixteen species of whale. Just south, Elizabeth Bay contains Las Marielas Islets, home to the largest colony of Galapagos Penguins. And the Tunnels and the Tintoreras provide the greatest snorkeling experiences around Isabela.
For a day at the beach visitors need not go anywhere; Port Villamil was built alongside some of Ecuador's most beautiful white sand beaches. And for land lovers, Santa Cruz is more that just volcanic rock with some interesting animals. Though it is home to every life zone found in the Galapagos and home to some species of Galapagos turtles, it is also a trekker's paradise.
Those who like hiking and exploring will be fascinated to discover the lava tunnels and caves, such as two twin craters referred to as Los Gemelos (the twins). An easy day hike through the highlands offers a chance to encounter the tortoises as they search for food or rest at a drinking hole.
For those who hit the highlands to go birding (Santa Cruz is home to almost every species of bird found in the Galapagos), they will be pleasantly surprised to find small-scale agriculture of a very tasty persuasion.
Lava Java is a small coffee plantation that offers visitors a chance to see how coffee is produced from bean to brew and a chance to taste and purchase coffee that is grown and roasted on the island. If you're not a coffee drinker, then the Cascaja sugar cane stop offers a sweeter interlude to any highland visit in Santa Cruz. Visitors have a chance to understand the production of sugar cane products from cultivation to final products such as trapiche and panela.
If you are not in the highlands of Santa Cruz then you will find yourself along the shores, which have several bays and beaches unmatched anywhere, such as Academy Bay, Tortuga Bay, and Garrapatero Beach.
If you go:
Entrance fee to the Galapagos:
- $16 for nationals or residents with ID
- $100 for visitors
Isabela does not have a commercial airport. Daily flights take you from mainland Ecuador to Baltra Island, near Santa Cruz. Check out my piece on the airport's new and more eco-friendly terminal on the island here. Baltra currently receives five daily flights during the week and seven on weekends, including service by LAN, which often offers great promotions (talk to travel experts here and they will tell you no other airline does that).
From Baltra, hop over to neighboring Santa Cruz Island and take a boat from Puerto Ayora to Isabela (about $30). The ride is 2 ½ hours, not including the one hour journey from Baltra (a short ferry followed by a bus or taxi ride).

Oil on Canvas
70 x 100 cm
This painting is part of a series of works that relate to each other but also can stand alone. As I worked on all four paintings simultaneously the various ideas and techniques used for each painting fed into one another helping with the progression of the paintings as well as linking the work in series.

Yield: Enough frosting for about 3 dozen medium-size cookies
Cook's notes: Coarse decorating sugar (also called sanding sugar) and cellophane bags are sold at some craft stores and cake decorating stores. Surfas in Costa Mesa is a good source for cookie cutters and stocks coarse (sanding) sugars in a wide variety of colors.
1. Beat butter in large bowl of electric mixer until creamy on medium-high speed. Add half of powdered sugar, about 1/2 cup at a time, beating to blend on medium speed between additions. Add 1 tablespoon milk and all vanilla; beat to combine. Add remaining powdered sugar, 1/2 cup at a time. Add more milk as needed to make a thick but spreadable consistency, or more powdered sugar if frosting is too thin. If frosting is too thick, it will break cookie as you spread it. If it is too thin, it will run off cookie (and when you dip it in coarse sugar, the sugar will melt). Test frosting by spreading it on cookie.
2. Make mound(s) of coarse sugar (if using more than one color, place on separate plates). Frost a cookie. If desired, press candy eyes into frosting. Dip cookie, frosting side down, in coarse sugar. Turn cookie over and add mouth if desired, using either a raisin or one or more currants. Add a little more coarse sugar, pushing it down lightly with palm of hand; place on cooling rack to dry and harden.

Tag: The Weather Channel
The Weather Channel disavows co-founder's comments on climate change
- 4:32 pm Thursday, October 30th, 2014 by Rodney Ho
Atlanta-based Weather Channel CEO David Kenny told staff in a note today that the network co-founder's comments to Fox News questioning climate change were not opinions reflected by the Weather Channel itself.
"Not only is the ice not melting, more polar bears are alive and happy today than we've had in 100 years," John Coleman told Fox News host Megyn Kelly earlier this week. The research behind climate change "is bad, bad science."
Coleman, 80 and a veteran weatherman, helped start the Weather Channel when it debuted in 1981. He has disavowed climate change for many years, calling it a "scam."
TV briefs: 'Atlanta Eats' in Vegas, AMHQ at Atlanta Botanical Garden, local 'Shark Tank' connection airing tonight
- 5:18 pm Friday, April 11th, 2014 by Rodney Ho
"Atlanta Eats," Steven "Steak" Shapiro's creation, is opening its fourth season this weekend on Peachtree TV by trying out restaurants… in Vegas.
The episode runs at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 12, and Sunday, April 13, on Peachtree TV.
"We decided to try something out of the box," Steak said Friday. "We felt like that's one of those cities many people travel to and don't really know where to eat."
He was already doing some production work for the Venetian so he decided to tie that in with "Atlanta Eats." He spent a half day each with Thomas Keller, "The Cake Boss" Buddy [More]
The Weather Channel back on DirecTV April 9 after three-month dispute
- 3:19 pm Tuesday, April 8th, 2014 by Rodney Ho
DirecTV will return The Weather Channel to the air after a caustic three-month dispute, with the Atlanta-based network agreeing to some concessions.
The Weather Channel is expected to return onto Channel 362 sometime on Wednesday, April 9. A spokeswoman didn't have the exact time but someone inside the company heard it would be at around 11 a.m.
Off air for 20 million DirecTV customers since mid January, the Weather Channel said it will cut back its reality programs by half on weekdays and allow DirecTV customers to watch the network's live programming on multiple devices as long as they can prove they [More]
Big Monday: Chris Dimino, Sam Champion, Power 96.1, Rich 'Sully' Sullivan start anew
- 6:00 am Monday, March 17th, 2014 by Rodney Ho
March 17 is a busy day on radio and TV in Atlanta. Here are four new developments:
- Chris Dimino, last heard on sports talk 790/The Zone, joins 680/The Fan's Rude Awakening morning show from 6 to 9 a.m. with Perry Laurentino and Christopher Rude.
- Sam Champion, formerly at "Good Morning America," starts his new "AMHQ" show in Atlanta for the Weather Channel from 7 to 10 a.m.
- Top 40 Power 96.1's new morning show Scotty K and Riley Couture debuts from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. The show replaces the syndicated Elvis Duran show. (The station [More]
Sam Champion debuts new morning show 'AMHQ' on The Weather Channel March 17
- 2:26 pm Saturday, March 15th, 2014 by Rodney Ho
Sam Champion, who spent a quarter century in the New York market and became a popular national weather beacon on "Good Morning America," starts the next phase of his life in Atlanta at the Weather Channel as host of the new morning show "AMHQ" Monday morning, March 17.
The forecast is by no means clear that this will be sunny skies for Champion, who was used to being seen daily by six million viewers on "GMA," the most popular morning show in America.
On the Weather Channel, he may be lucky to draw even one-tenth of that audience. But he'll be on air [More]
TV briefs: Paula Deen, Erin Andrews on 'DWTS,' Sam Champion, 'Jeopardy,' 'Broad City' tour

Savannah's queen of Southern cuisine Paula Deen is on a resurrection tour.
Last week, she spoke before sympathetic fans at the South Beach Wine & Food Festival in Miami Beach.
In a People magazine cover story, Deen said, "I feel like 'embattled' or 'disgraced' will always follow my name. It's like that black football player who recently came out [NFL prospect Michael Sam.] He said, 'I just want to be known as a football [More]
All hands on deck! Local TV, Weather Channel ready for huge storm
- 3:44 pm Tuesday, February 11th, 2014 by Rodney Ho
While things are not quite crazy yet, the local TV news stations and the Weather Channel are prepping for the worst, with anchors and meteorologists using words like potentially "catastrophic" and "devastating" for the forthcoming ice storm.
The massive ice/snow traffic jam of two weeks ago made for compelling visuals in terms of absurd tie ups and was relatively unexpected, which made for great TV. Plus, people didn't lose power so everyone got to watch if they weren't stuck on the roads.
This time around, no matter how severe it becomes, coverage will be more conventional. We've had plenty of forewarning. People [More]
TV briefs: 'Mob City,' 'Walking Dead,' 'Shark Tank,' Rick Springfield, Alton Brown
- 9:35 am Tuesday, February 11th, 2014 by Rodney Ho
Atlanta-based TNT has whacked "Mob City" after a six-episode limited run in December.
Ratings opened poorly at 2.3 million and dropped from there.
"Although the ratings of the limited series haven't warranted more hours we are eager to work with Frank Darabont again and were delighted to bring the vibrant world of Mob City to life," the network said in a statement.
This is TNT's third drama in a row that was cancelled by the network after "Monday Mornings" and "King and Maxwell" failed to take off.
Period dramas tend to do better on certain networks such as HBO and AMC and even then, [More]
Accuweather taunts Weather Channel in its own backyard with billboard
- 9:46 am Thursday, February 6th, 2014 by Rodney Ho
Fox News had a billboard in front CNN headquarters for years to tweak the competitor.
Now AccuWeather, ready to launch a cable station to compete against Atlanta-based the Weather Channel later this year, is doing the same. With the American Meteorological Society coincidentally in town this week for its annual conference, Accuweather placed this billboard in the heart of downtown:
AccuWeather made the announcement about its new network last month right after DirecTV removed the Weather Channel from the air while the two are in dispute over retransmission fees.
According to the Centre Daily, State College, Pa.-based AccuWeather provides forecasting services [More]
Q&A with Weather Channel CEO David Kenny
- 1:43 pm Saturday, February 1st, 2014 by Rodney Ho
David Kenny, the CEO of Atlanta-based Weather Co. (parent company of the Weather Channel), comes across as mild mannered and pleasant in person.
But he has opted to hit DirecTV hard in a campaign the past two-plus weeks to pressure the satellite carrier to bring back the Weather Channel. The company blacked out the Atlanta-based network Jan. 13 because the two sides couldn't agree on how much DirecTV would pay to carry the network.
The Weather Company – owned by a consortium of private-equity firms Blackstone and Bain Captial as well as Comcast's media company NBCUniversal – hired Kenny two years ago [More]

Plus Size Question
I'm toying with the idea of starting a little business and opening an Etsy store or a website to sell Plus Size items that are hard to find elsewhere. For example, my mom makes really cute custom aprons, and I'm going to learn how to make them. But I know when I had her make one for my SIL as a Christmas gift last year, she was so excited to have it because we made it Plus Sized and she couldn't find them anywhere.
So I was wondering...what items do you have a hard time finding in Plus Sizes? (Nothing too extravagant like wedding dresses....I'll never be able to sew THAT well! LOL)

The Center for Organic and Sustainable Agriculture at Alfred State College will develop entrepreneurs who will sustainably and profitably manage natural resources to produce healthy food and renewable energy.
Agriculture is a significant industry in New York State and it plays a major role in quality of life in our region. These are some of the changes in NYS agriculture which precipitated the creation of the new center:
- Plant genetics have changed - Radically new plant genetics and new farming technologies facilitate improved agricultural production on the colder, wetter soils of Western New York.
- Market structures have changed - consumers are increasingly asking for locally grown products. Consumers are asking for greater involvement in the production of food. And consumers are demonstrating a willingness to pay higher prices for specialty products that satisfy these new desires.
- Nutritional concerns have changed - American consumers are blessed with easy access to abundant, nutritious, safe, and inexpensive food. But consumers are requesting new choices when they go to the grocery store. We now hear baby boomers asking for increased food-derived health components such as omega-3 fatty acids, phytochemicals, nutriceuticals, and lycopene. Organic agriculture is growing in response to that consumer demand. The Organic Trade Association reports that retail organic sales were a $14 billion business in 2005 comprising 2.5% of all US food sales. Sales in the organic dairy sector grew 23.5% last year alone.
- And the cost of energy has changed. Agriculture is increasingly becoming a source of renewable energy. As an alternative to current fuel acquisition practices, we will help farmers produce home-grown energy. The development of NYS ethanol plants, biodiesel facilities, photovoltaic and wind generation operations demonstrates how farmers can help New York State lessen its dependence on fossil fuels. We will help farmers learn how to "grow your own."

Your Two-Year-Old: Terrible or Tenderby Louise Bates Ames
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Are two-year-olds really so terrible, or does the world have a slightly skewed view of this sometimes difficult, sometimes adorable lot? Drs. Ames and Ilg, recognized worldwide as authorities on child behavior and development, offer parents practical advice and enlightening psychological insights on children this age.
What are two-year-old girls and boys thinking and feeling? How do they see others around them? With humor and compassion, the authors describe the general characteristics of these complex toddlers: their physical growth trends, their emotional and psychological maturation. Also included are insights into how two-year-olds behave with family and other children, and advice on how to handle them, as well as tings to avoid.
Included in this book:
• A two-year-old's view of the world—and himself
• Bath and dressing routines
• Sex differences
• Stories from real life
• A list of age-appropriate toys and books
• A bibliography for parents
"Louise Bates Ames and her colleagues synthesize a lifetime of observation of children, consultation, and discussion with parents. These books will help parents to better understand their children and will guide them through the fascinating and sometimes trying experiences of modern parenthood."—Donald J. Cohen, M.D., Director, Yale Child Study Center, Irving B. Harris Professor of Child Psychiatry, Pediatrics, and Psychology, Yale School of Medicine
From thumb-sucking to toilet training to discipline—everything you need to know about your two-year-old.

International Square, K Street, Washington DC
Concrete, industrial style. In the same way that feels like glazed glass castles are taking over the city, at some point in the 70s it must have felt like the future lie in mass accentuating cubes of concrete brute. This was the preeminent style of government buildings for a least a decade, and many of the urban renewal projects of the 60s and 70s consisted of blocks and blocks of concrete grids. By the 80s, which I'm guessing is when this was built, some ornamentation and postmodern signage had made its way into the mix. Regardless, probably the most hated architectural trend of the 20th century.

Anselm Kiefer ranks among the most important artists to emerge from post-war Europe. Palmsonntag (Palm Sunday) is a monumental installation consisting of a 30-foot-long palm tree cast in fiberglass and resin, its roots clotted with mud, surrounded by a cycle of 44 large paintings encased in glass and framed in lead. Overwhelming in scale and sweeping in content, Palmsonntag conveys the operatic scope of Kiefer's creative enterprise that crosses through spiritual, religious and mythical cultural territory.
I saw this installation when it was at the Art Gallery of Ontario and was completely mesmerized.

Sample Lesson Plans
Language Arts IV
The Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd:
"Nymphs Grow Old and Shepherds Grow Cold"
TSWBAT: Read and compare the realistic elements in "A
Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd" to the idealistic elements in "A
Passionate Shepherd to His Love."
1) Review pastoral poetry.
What are some elements of pastoral poetry that we discussed on Tuesday? Or, some terms we used to describe pastoral poetry? (May use notes).
Possible answers: (board)
a) carpe diem
b) set in an idealized countryside/ idealistic character types (beautiful maidens, shepherds, farm wives, farmers)
c) pastor
d) free love
e) optimistic, happy tone
f) themes of youth, love, innocence
1) On Tues. we read, "A Passionate Shepherd to His Love" and we determined that the speaker (shepherd) wanted his love (nymph) to live with him.
2) Today, we will read "A Nymphís Reply to the Shepherd" by Sir Walter Raleigh, where the nymph responds to the shepherd's proposal. Distribute handout.
**Students will follow along and fill-out Pre-Reading section of the guided notes during the lecture/discussion.
3) Note that this poem is by a different author- Sir Walter Raleigh.
What do you remember about Sir Walter Raleigh? Lived during the same time period as Marlowe; soldier; politician; courtier of Queen Elizabeth (couldn't publish poetry because it was considered undignified to do so); favorite of the Queen, but he fell from her favor when he secretly married one of her maids of honor; years later, it was believed he committed treason against James I.
4) Even though they lived during the same time period (friends), he did not believe in this carpe diem way of life. Instead, he believed in a something else- tempus fugit.
5) Website- www.nelson-atkins.org/tempusfugit/
6) Normally, you would think that someone would want to seize the day b/c time flies.
Why does Raleigh think that because time flies, we shouldn't seize the day?
7) Raleigh believes that we live in a fallen world, full of disappointments.
8) Now that you have some background on Raleigh, how do you think the nymph is going to reply to the shepherd?
9) Read poem together. (p. 225)
10) Answer Post-Reading questions in teams (play music) and then review answers.
Nymphs grow old, and shepherds grow cold.
Tomorrow: Working in pairs writing your own modern-day form of pastoral poetry- either idealistic proposal or realistic reply.
Collect handouts.

Is there any problem with buying a gun that is on display? I bought my first handgun today. A Springfield XDM 9mm at a Bass Pro Shops. They didn't have any in the back, all they had was the display gun. It looked just fine and there was a trigger guard on it so it hasn't been dry fired a bunch of times. Should I be worried about anything?

You should be fine. I also think they have a good warranty policy. Congrats, there are some xd lovers here.
Thanks for the reply. Obviously I'm new to gun ownership but I just want to make sure there aren't issues with buying a display gun.
does anyone else have an opinion on this?
It's the same gun as the others only it has been fondled by some people. There's nothing to worry about imo.
You should be fine as long as it is sold to you as NIB with all original SA warranties in place. Dry firing should not be an issue since many gun shops do not like customers pulling the trigger or excessively racking the slides anyway. Good luck with your purchase and hope you enjoy the new XDm. Also, since Bass Pro Shops do not have ranges, as far as I know, there should not have been any rounds put through it except for the factory test and casing marking.

"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government." - George Washington
Thanks for the reassuarance guys. I feel much better about this now. Thanks for the warm welcome and I'm looking forward to the new gun.
Just picked it up guys! Pretty excited. Should I give this thing a good cleaning before I go shoot it?

To celebrate the launch of the HTC One M8, we've teamed up with HTC to offer one lucky reader to take home the phone by participating in our treasure hunt.
How does it work?
1. A new treasure hunt word is revealed twice every week.
2. The word will be hidden away in one of the articles on Tbreak.com related to HTC.
3. Look through the articles, find the treasure hunt word and use it to enter the competition.
4. Ten treasure hunt words will be revealed through the course of a month.
5. You must find and enter all ten treasure hunt words to win.
6. If multiple entrants find all 10 treasure hunt words, the winner will be picked by a random draw.
Good luck and happy hunting! Remember, all the treasure hunt words are in HTC-related articles on Tbreak.

144 Guidebook for Conducting Airport User Surveys shipments or cargo activity at their facility, it is possible to construct a survey in the form of an interview. Using the survey purpose as a base, a series of questions can be constructed to form a structured interview to be conducted with all, or selected, air cargo operators at the airport. Each selected shipper and forwarder would be approached to participate, and an interview con- ducted at a convenient time. The cost and duration of such a survey would depend on the number of interviews to be conducted. As an alternative or supplementary method, it may be possible to conduct driver interviews at a roadside location near the cargo facility. This survey method was adopted for the extensive survey performed at Toronto Pearson International Airport in 2005 (the questionnaire used is included in Appendix K). The actual methodology is similar to the roadside interviews used by state agen- cies, and the experience of such agencies would be valuable in the design of a roadside intercept interview at an airport. The numbers of truck movements by truck category can be collected through observational studies. Such a study will not provide the detailed data on loaded weight and origin and destina- tion, but it would act as a census of the volume of truck movements. 10.4 Summary Air cargo surveys may be required when the available data sources do not provide the level of information needed. Waybill data would be a superior data source for analysis, but there is cur- rently no easy way to access detailed waybill data for air cargo shipments and freight forwarding companies are reluctant to release this information. There is limited experience in conducting air cargo truck interviews, which may be the best approach to getting access to waybill data.

Today Show Producer Takes Blame for Ann Curry Firingby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Don't blame Matt Lauer. That's the message Jim Bell tried to send yesterday in an interview centered on the troubles at Today.
With ratings still in decline and with the Ann Curry firing debacle still hanging over the program, the executive producer attempted to shift blame away from his star.
"It was definitely not Matt's call," Bell said, responding to rumors that Lauer is to blame for Curry's dismissal. "[Matt] is the host and does not have management responsibility. It was not his call. That was my call.
But Bell's sincerity is now being called into question.
Insiders tell The New York Post that Lauer was "sick of being the punching bag" for Today and forced Bell to take responsibility for Curry.
"Matt feels that Jim didn't take accountability for all the ratings drama at Today. [Jim] was away at the Olympics, getting all the glory," a source told the newspaper. "So Lauer forced Jim to stand in the firing line."
Where does the truth lie? We may never know.
But we can hear the glasses toasting at Good Morning America right at this very moment.
I have been watching the Today Show since the Jane Pauley days. I have lived through a series of co-hosts post Katie who grew on me. Ann Curry's interviews gradually grew from annoying to downright ridiculous and i was relieved when she left the show. I tune in for MATT every day; I like Savannah and Natalie but would be switching to cbs if Matt were to leave the show.
I hate Savannah Guthrie. She is one ditzy, stupid disgrace to the legal profession. In one cooking segment, she broke a serving glass goblet because she repeatedly knocked a spoon on the side of the glass. Of course the glass will break, stooopid! I am not watching Today as long as ditzy Savannah is on the show. Fire her!
I think Savannah is the one that should get the ax. She is a ditsy woman and is always getting things mixed up. You would not know she had a law degree. Matt is the same, and I do miss Ann. She had a very sensitive side to her and when she interviewed a child or family that had been thru something like an accident, she was very genuine. Savannah is like a robot and asks the most stupid questions and doesnt even act interested. It seems like just a job to her. It didnt seem that way with Ann. NBC screwed up. Dont blame Matt.
I will start watching GMA. I have been watching Today show for lack of anything better to watch but MAN, I MISS ANN CURRY!!!! I HATE SAVANNAH GUTHRIE AND I REALLY REALLY REALLY HATE MATT LAUER! Matt Lauer is SO dry and he looks EVEN DRIER next to Savannah Guthrie who has to be all of 10 years old. I'm over it. I hope ratings drop for the Today show because you all deserve it! You made a HORRIBLE mistake when you fired Ann Curry. She was warm and intelligent and just awesome. Someone women could really look up to. I don't like the chemistry between Matt and Savannah. They look like teacher and student vs. respected peers in their field. Severely Disappointed Viewer
I really miss the calm I felt watching the Today Show. I miss Ann Curry - she brought integrity to the show. I can't look at Matt Lauer anymore after what I witnessed on the show. Fire Lauer, rehire Ann Curry and apologize publicly for making a terrible mistake and I will watch again. Also please don't do stupid things like ignore the moments of silence on 9/11 in favor of the Kardashians. We aren't shallow idiots- know your audience!
Ann was the reason i've used to watch TS, so since she went out GMA got my full attention. Sorry Matt but you are lame and you dont talk to my heart.
Sorry to say after 25 years of today I now start my day with GMA Maby ann will join GMA today doesn't deserve her talents.
I still like Matt Lauer but would watch the today show again if Anne Curry was back. Guthrie needs to grow up and stop her giggling she's like a giddy teenager.
Ann Curry what a wonderful, professional and a class act to boot! I felt like they treated her like some dog off the streets! Matt if the ratings are falling off because of you then your head should roll!
Jim Bell is very stupidly acting like Matt Lauer's BITCH!!!!! Jim has NO BACKBONE whatsoever when it comes to Matt. Morons.

Look, a thing!
Notes on educational incarceration
You can always go back
to being weak willed and undisciplined
Vulture-faced collector
of what we've tossed away,
babies' fingers & our dreams'
toenail clippings You can
forever commit to being
an insignificance that flickers
in the corners of our digitized moment,
an alert about rockfall
in the accounts wing
of thousands of bricklayers'
home bar-none of the sacrileges
we are commited to You can
constantly trick your neighbors
into asserting you in your stead,
while you waffle between knife handles
and stone garden layouts, flowers
bursting at the seams
from an overloaded sense of shame
We can always go back to being
weak willed disciplinarians, flaws
transparencies- but what would we
ever hope to write upon ourselves, such?
Chiapas is breath inspiring
San Cris
A cow howls
in the middle of the road
Those of us in sight are stopped
before her, who is
for that then
the moment
spins slowly around her
We leave again
There are
tiny cans of fire
maintaining the divide
with clouds
they try to climb higher
to where we are
but burn away
with sight of the sky
A cool breeze rushed past my skin
A slow motion fight
We watch the sun come
over the long switchback
to a distant church
The air smells of spirits,
and pines
I wander looking
I wander looking
for you, without
looking for you
I nourish myself
on the essence of
black poplars and lost dreams
of rainy seasons set in
glass hallways
where their audience saw ever
-ything's palms pressed
against the water
without warmth,
without washing
About my home
here the sidewalks grow
increasingly beset
with hounds who leave
their daytime footprints
in this misty recent cement
shell over the lake of soil
I sleep little
and wrapped in iron,
for all that it burns me
as well, as howls
and a caravan charge
the air, splinters
and shattered bayonets
Where it would carry me, I say not.
How we gird hopes
against the end!
Here's the second one
Bricolage and basket weaving
this park is glut with birds,
sick with so many
glass and stone and
paint and blood creatures
A fountain that doesn't move
Hands hold all the flagpoles
so that they remember
which way is skyward
Most of the birds
have already forgotten
They've laced their claws
and bones into baskets
for their beaks
and orange blossoms, now
Last night, the stay here
I survive here on beer;
you on sawdust and
dried childhood trauma
pressed by desk legs
into moving pallets
to carry away all of you
concerned strangers
Not that they recognize you,
they carry miniatures
of captured tearings,
those shied away from
every once reflected before
in those memoirs
Cast out onto the ocean
foam I wave away
repressed magpies
and sink saws to settle a city
Star sightings
for a long country, there
are more cities in the sky or
Perhaps I have been spun
as we pull away and
the voice quivers the sky
the voice quivers
between sparrow beaks
and I think I'm flying
all of my word's migrations
But then the sky was ground
again and all the fracturing stars
huddled to break my monologue
Wrote a lot on the plane
Doubting under the hills
Above the haze is an abrupt
distinct space- aggressively empty
and offensively jagged, the peaks
defy hateful condensed intrusion
Jarring amethyst shards,
in countless pieces,
decorate their bases,
spiteful and miniscule
What does occupying this average
raised space cost the standard
shape of man? Ideally, we imagine
ourselves smoldering hyperbolically
through the sky, but there's nothing
preservative about infinity- we
waste away slowly, underground,
to a jazzy stamp and the darkness
Unsure of gardening on Thursday flights
There is no tonic
for these clashing theses of
history, shattered metal cups
Think about something
you would never do-
Chase down a falling brick
as the rain laughs in Berlin,
some time when you could see Mars
in the sky and Venus
was a dozen different little birds
fighting over a snail's long walk home?
Skip stones over the salt flats
outside of Stalingrad
while all the silly words were killed,
petals plucked one by one,
dancing Sunday afternoon apostasies?
Liszt's aleatoric tradition clashes
with a band of roving return flights;
you do you, what you never could
Yes it's late here. Unrelated; here is mexico city
Pride land
A city looks different at night
It's a glow worm
coming down the metro tunnel
you spot exotic tequilas
made from sinning crystal
strewn across fields,
glimmering poppies
that sprout across the erect skyline
and haze instead of mountains
As you place yourself
in the role of penthouse
the skyline is never so
threatening as a stranger,
perhaps a Colombian swamp,
that you lose
in the convenience store distance
The cups king rules here,
any desert of relationships
that bridles your wild taxis,
like these packs of hyenas
held people this far into the dark
You are an antelope, a wildebeest,
some animal I've never heard of
The sky crackles
in a tire fire, you scream
Gotta stop getting the metro funk
Know you to speak
That the rivers wash away our wounds
There are some with whom I speak
poetically Others with whom
pragmatically And
some suffer my precision
Else I am another one of a thousand
myselves, scrimshaw herons
clattering gibberish for apples- don't we all
I want to see stars more, more
Machado in tilled brushlands,
the murderous Castilla,
sews up himself with shrubs
The bones branches singing odes
and benedictions for the belabored
in things I'm not sure of
you, I can't know to speak to you
I wrote a couple new things in a chopperia called Rayuela
Grafting as amateur sculpture
It smelled of thousands of years for
a second that I climbed out of the metro
Five men cut down, the work of two leaves
littering laymen-blue crosswalks
between the scent of evergreens and the house
of the goose downed lines of salted earth
set out to dry the scorched eye sockets
Peaches and tearing out IVs make up my meals-
I am nurtured by blood spilled before time
All such a waste
Think I hope I have a real living space, now
Hollow bird cages
I keep hearing the
same tune Crackling
paper stars litter
the subway Broken
violin strings, snapping
birds talons Empty sounds
of a crowd breaking on
glass stalls and miners
Falling stones of fair tickets,
cotton balls, sin-laden
stints in a drunken booth
The same song, sung out
like tiles crackling, pigeons
trapped in steel gutters
Composing hymnals and mixing paints
the sky is stained with
the descent of blue
If we head to
the west, it is by way
of the clouds,
of the peaks we skip,
of feathers that call
with the determined hands
of the day
Of the heights
my ribs are broken
chess pieces The fit between
the bleeding orange and
the triumphant return
of the planets, their liturgies

When one of Quilla Day's valued
As a romance novel, Poarch's book falters slightly. But the author's approach to humor and mystery is a saving grace. The attraction between Quilla and Denton is, at best, minimal and is similar to a slow burning.
Quilla's personality seems to dominate because she is the more upbeat and quirky character. Despite Quilla's and Denton's differences, Poarch shows that they compliment one another as the novel nears the end. This is the answer for those looking for mystery with a hint of romance. (Jan., 352 pp., $6.99)

A little about me...
I am a people person and very outgoing. I was a Nurse and worked with Social Services through the State of Delaware. I am now retired. I attend church and would like someone who believes in God. A person who is warm and friendly, loves people, loves life, smiles a lot, likes to hold hands in public, is romantic, and loves touching and being touched but is also happy by himself. Must have a great smile and laugh a lot. Enjoys the simple things in life with a simple kind of woman.
I like to work in my garden, enjoy listening to good music, (easy listening, some country) traveling, camping.
I am looking for and honest, down to earth caring man. A man that will treat a woman the way he should with respect. kindness, not lies. With gentleness, and not always expecting something in return. I have been married twice. My First husband died suddenly. I was latter blessed to marry another wonderful man who passed away 4 years ago after 28 years of a loving marriage. Hope I may again be able to meet someone that will help to fill the big void he left in my heart. Both men were loving & caring, always there for me in good times & bad. I miss this very much, Hope to again be able to find these fine qualities in another man.
About the one I'm looking for...
Honesty and trust are the most important things to me. Next to my family. I love nature, a nice quiet walk along the water or park. Doing it with someone else that also enjoys these things makes it even nicer. A nice dinner on occ. it just depends on the company you are with. I am very down to earth. I live in the country away from the hassle and bustle of big cities and love it. If you think you fit this bill, please let me know, I would like to hear from you as well.
I'd just like to add...
I would just like to add, I would like someone I can share both the good times and the not so good times with. A quiet evening together. Just talking on the phone or e mail and getting to really know each other is fine with me. I really Love traveling, going out to eat in a quiet down to earth rest. (but NOT FAST FOOD). Leisurely walks along a beach somewhere or in a beautiful park. I am a nature lover can you tell. But most of all .... Just enjoy being and doing things together with someone who has the same interests as I do...whatever they may be.

Niagara Falls train station promises better access, greater mobility
When is a train station not just a train station? Ask the people who gathered Monday to celebrate the groundbreaking for the third and final phase of the Niagara Falls International Railway Station and Intermodal Transportation Center, and you could get a wide range of answers:
When it represents a wide range of partners coming together and cooperating to get a needed project off the ground. When it increases the transportation options available to local residents as well as international tourists. When it stimulates economic development. And when it also houses U.S. Customs operations for the Department of Homeland Security as well as a museum celebrating the rich history of the Underground Railroad.
And they would all be correct. In addition to the Customs inspection center and the Underground Railroad museum, the new station will offer a more convenient downtown location, upgraded tracks and signals, dedicated passenger rail siding to eliminate conflicts with freight traffic, and improved passenger rail platforms. The LEED Silver passenger rail terminal building will also accommodate multi-modal operations like bus, taxi, and park-and-ride services, making it a true transportation hub for the region...

Highlighted MiniReview
Role of IKK complex in viral infections
This minireview offers a perspective on the role of the interplay between host signaling pathways – specifically the IkB kinase complex pathway – and viral infections. Since this interplay is often necessary for viral replication and results in immune activation, inflammation and other negative consequences for the host, it becomes an attractive target for therapy.

Tropism of the C. trachomatis plasmid is determined by CDS2
We used the novel approach of transformation combined with recombination to identify the region of the chlamydial plasmid that determines tropism, it demonstrates the barrier is at the level of plasmid replication/maintenance and is not related to the process of DNA uptake.

CPAF: questions & directions
One protein in particular has dominated the field of chlamydial cell biology in the last 5 or so years, CPAF, the so called Chlamydial Protease-like Activity Factor. This unique chlamydial cysteine protease has been associated wide a wide range of activities, potentially regulating many host cell functions. While some of its activities are confirmed, others have been questioned. Several expert chlamydial researchers who have contributed to this important area have provided commentaries on CPAF in this issue; what is known, what might be misleading and what needs to be done now.

HOT ROD has always covered everything in the world of domestic automotive performance, and as the first magazine in the Petersen Publishing stable (1948), it's the granddaddy of most of the other 46 specialty titles currently in print here at Source Interlink Media. We decided to leverage that connection in this new, monthly column where we ask editors of some of our sister titles to let us know what's hottest in their marketplace.
This isn't Photoshop work; it's an actual photograph of Trans Am Depot's five traffic-stopping Pontiacs doing some testing at an undisclosed location east of Tallahassee, Florida. Through extensive conversion to the exteriors and interiors, Pontiac's brand identity is recreated. Sharp-eyed readers who recall Trans Am Depot's concept Trans Am from prior SEMA shows will see that the frontend treatment is revised for 2013.
From front to rear: the blue Trans Am with a 580-rwhp, 376ci LS3 with a Procharger PS1-C supercharger and methanol injection; the black Trans Am with a 385-rwhp LS3; the orange GTO Judge using Hellion's 62mm twin-turbo kit to produce 640 rwhp from a 376ci LS3; the black Hurst Edition Trans Am with a Procharger PS1-C on the LS3 for 540 rwhp; and the white "6T9" Trans Am making 1,194 rwhp from a 427ci LS7 with the Hellion 62mm twin-turbo package and an NOS Launcher nitrous kit (used primarily for intake air cooling).
For more information on Trans Am Depot's '13 Trans Ams and GTOs, visit TransAmDepot.com.
Walt was well known in the hot rod community, but his work on lowriders cemented his legacy; perhaps it was that our gigantic hoods and trunks allowed Walt to fully explore the boundaries of paint and stripe. One such canvas was Gypsy Rose, a '64 Impala seen weekly on television during the opening credits of Chico and the Man. it was only the beginning of many other iconic paintjobs he would go on to create.
He would sign his name, "Walt," and the "T" was crossed with a small drawing of a hand holding a striping brush. Walt's love for the automobile design would never make him rich in the monetary sense, but it did make him wealthy in friendship. With his passing, his immediate family found out about Walt's large extended family—the entire custom world!
Even though Walt had closed up the lids on his 1 Shot paint cans, cleaned all his special brushes in mineral spirits, put away his purple velour cloth for spinning silver leaf, and closed the doors of his studio for the final time, his work lives on in the form of the many rolling canvases that this San Fernando Valley, California, painter has left behind. While the debate will forever rage about who the best pinstripe artist of all time might be, there is no doubt that Walt was the baddest. As I said at his funeral, I know that everyone who ever had the good fortune of working with him appreciated his work and the value he put forth on our cars. Thanks, Walt.
Initial testing with the 4.0L, Whipple-supercharged 327cid version proved very promising with a best of 9.69 at 140 mph, just a few tenths off the NHRA class record. GM also announced it would revive the 1LE nameplate for road-racing enthusiasts. The '13 model will be available this fall with a manual transmission only. It borrows many parts off the ZL1 to enhance its handling, while its looks benefit from a unique flat-black hood, front splitter, and spoiler. The driveline has been beefed up with a stronger, close-ratio TR6060, 3.91 gears, and heavy-duty axles. GM claims sub-three-minute lap times at Virginia International Raceway's Grand Course with a price tag of less than $40,000.
One Lap Of America is a grueling, eight-day event in which racers compete on tracks rather than public roads, but must endure long drives between venues. There are no trailers or support vehicles allowed. For 2012, OLOA incorporated 18 stages at 9 different venues, including drag racing, autocross, skidpad (wet and dry), circle track, and, of course, road racing. By week's end, the teams traveled more than 4,000 miles.
"Our journey began at the Tire Rack in South Bend, Indiana, on Saturday, May 5, and we didn't return until May 12," Smith says. "Our plan was to run hard, but you can't afford mistakes. Any mishap on track can kill your time, and with only three hot laps per session, there is little chance to make it up.
"With each event in the books, we loaded our stuff in as quick as 10 minutes and we headed on to the next track—sometimes the distance was 600-plus miles. The Roush RS3 Mustang performed flawlessly. It is an honest high-performance Mustang suitable for road or track.
"This was one of the most challenging things I have done. Jeff and I battled sleep deprivation and fatigue; dealt with the long, tedious drives; and had to navigate the challenging racetracks. Nevertheless, we maintained our focus and got our adrenaline going when needed. It was a victory just to survive—I give credit to all the teams that finished."
In the latest news from Mopar, the first Chrysler Group vehicle built on Fiat-derived architecture, the '13 Dart, should be in showrooms by the time you read this. The Dart blends Alfa Romeo DNA with Dodge's passion for performance and style. It offers the choices of 12 colors and 14 interior color and trim options; three powerful, fuel-efficient engines; three transmission choices; and unsurpassed safety features and world-class aerodynamics, setting a new standard for the compact-car class. The first vehicle off the line was a red Dodge Dart Rallye with a black and red interior, powered by a 1.4L engine with manual transmission. The '13 Dodge Dart will be available in five trim levels with a starting U.S. MSRP of $15,995.
And it's not just a pretty face; Dodge and SRT Motorsports announced that an all-new '13 Dodge Dart rally car piloted by four-time Rally America Champion and 17-time X Games Gold Medalist Travis Pastrana will compete in the '12 Global RallyCross Championship (GRC) Series. "At Dodge, racing is an integral part of our heritage and embodies our competitive spirit, so we're very excited to announce the next chapter in racing for Dodge with our all-new Dodge Dart," says Dodge Brand President and CEO Reid Bigland. "The new Dart Global RallyCross Championship car with 600 hp and driver Travis Pastrana takes our passion for performance to all-new heights."
There's more to this '40 than its good looks. It has plenty of ponies ready to gallop with a Ford Racing Performance 440hp Coyote 5.0L. HHR has outfitted the engine with a custom Inglese injection system utilizing a FAST EFI computer that's guaranteed to make the Coyote as good looking as it is powerful.
The coupe will make its debut under the watchful eye of SR Road Tour Chauffeur Jerry Dixey, who leaves from Vintage Air in San Antonio, Texas, and heads to the NHRA Hot Rod Reunion in Bowling Green, Kentucky, then immediately to the Back to the '50s event in St. Paul, Minnesota, which is the Aeromotive leg of the Road Tour.
To showcase the power potential of these engines, Diesel Power hosts a yearly competition called the Diesel Power Challenge that pits the 10 most powerful street-legal diesels on the planet against each other on a dragstrip, a chassis dyno, and strapped to a 40,000-pound sled. The winner is the truck that scores the best in seven tests. This year, the most powerful truck in the competition was a Chevy Silverado with a 6.6L triple-turbo Duramax. The 7,600-pound 4x4 laid down 1,329 hp and 2,455 lb-ft of torque at the rear wheels and ran an 11.1-second quarter-mile pass at 128 mph. Getting all that power to the ground proved to be challenging, as four-wheel-drive burnouts are just as common as black smoke in this motorsport. The First Place finish went to a compound-turbo, 6.4L-powered Ford Super Duty making 900 hp at the wheels. To see these diesels in action (before you line up against one in the staging lanes), check out DieselPowerChallenge.com and just imagine what one of these engines would do in your hot rod.

Alex Cross
Alex Cross (Tyler Perry) works as a detective/psychologist for the Detroit Police Department along with his lifelong friend, Tommy Kane (Edward Burns), and detective Monica Ashe (Rachel Nichols). Cross' latest case puts him on a collision course with Picasso (Matthew Fox), a cunning serial killer whose ultimate target is multinational industrialist Giles Mercier (Jean Reno). Cross must find a way inside Picasso's head not only to catch the killer but also to stem the violent urges Cross feels.

"Alex Cross" is an interesting exercise in back-engineering, a prequel that takes us back to the days before the psychologist/ police profiler was the sage, solemn and inscrutable sleuth that Morgan Freeman ably brought to the screen in two films over a decade ago.(Full review)

Can you please make sure the date's right so you don't give people a false hope that they'll make an exception and air it tomorrow night?
TV Fanatic why you mistakenly announced that episode 7x06 - Save the last chance, will be broadcast on 19th October? The series is broadcast on Mondays, and now it's only two episodes aired. I think you made a mistake in the date, there should be 19th November on Monday!

If you're an aging unabashed Justin Timberlake fan like myself, then you surely noted the launch last week of his new home decor collaboration, HomeMint. I loves me some JT, so I registered (early even!) and took a poke around. The site is basically subscription-based home decor boutique where you can buy (mostly expensive) home accents that have been curated by JT and his interior designer/celebrity stylist pal, Estee. (Although let's be honest here: in the world of celebrity businesses like this, the celeb in question typically doesn't actually have involvement, other than posing for some pictures.)
I went peeking around the site to see if any of the stuff was my style, and mostly it's not. I suppose my tastes run both louder and cheaper than most of what they're selling, which is fine. I'm not really their target market, which I'm guessing is more, like, US Weekly readers with high-limit credit cards who want to feel glamorous by having a little JT up in their boudoirs.
Despite not quite being their demographic, I totally still entered the contest to win a trip to LA to hang out with JT and Estee. We can talk color swatches and I can try to convince them rainbows are fucking awesome. I also followed HomeMint on Pinterest, where this doozy of a pin showed up, with the caption "Encompassing masculinity":
Blink blink. This combination of the picture and the "ecompassing masculinity" caption cracked me up so hard that I stammered on Pinterest, "Please, come have the sex with me on my raw wood manbed. That barrel is full of beer."
Not to be outdone, my Offbeat Homies on Pinterest took it even further:
- "I made these bricks out of pure testosterone and my chest hair." -Beck Rea
- "I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany." -Dootsie, quoting Anchorman.
Now listen, I don't mean to be snarky: I actually really love how Justin Timberlake has evolved his post-popstar career. (Anyone else think his tech-hipster beard at CES was braided from PURE WIN!?) That said, I do think he can do better than grey $75 pillows and raw wood manbeds. Homeboy needs to get some SPARKLY RAINBOWS up in that HomeMint situation. This is me making my HEY, JUSTIN: CALL ME face.
PS: who's got their own caption for the "Encompassing Masculinity" photo?

Austin, TXUSA 78745
July 17, 2012
Through WYRE and Gary Foster.
South central
Happy hour and hiking in the cool parks.
I've lived in Austin for over 35 years, single for 5, and love Joni James so I'm excited to have to time to come to some of the ASC events!
Great fun and a wide range of activities. I love Joni James who is such a beautiful and gracious host and the other organizers who give so much to the group!
Hi, write me @ [masked]. I was unable to send an e-mail to you through this site.
Hey Susan,
Be my diving buddy. I'm a master level SCUBA girl! So good to meet you!
Hi Susan,
It was nice meeting you last night. Hope to see you at other events.
No worries. I will in and around the Austin/Kyle area over the weekend, so just let me know. Regarding Toys for Tots, could you help me by finding out if their is a deadline and/or who a point of contact would be? I'm trying to work with Kim at Fado's in appetizers, drinks and enough room for us.
Susan, I think I have your jacket in my car from the hike last Friday. Let me know how and when you want to get it back.
Susan--please forgive me for not calling you back. How rude of me! I've been in the weeds with my relationship breaking up, wild fires and evacuations, and continuing health issues. I had hoped to see you last LL's lunch and catch up and was sorry not to see you there. I hope you are feeling better now. I hope you accept my apology for being so lax. If you want to chat before next week, give me a call anytime. You have a professional schedule that I don't wish to intrude on.
Hey girly! I wasn't feeling to well so I came home. My new number is [masked]. Thanks for worrying about my little self. ;)
Sorry you can't make it to the next one, Susan. You'll be missed! :)
Hi Susan, I wanted to let you know that it's your strong sense of who you are that free'd me to speak up today. Thanks for being your strong, vibrant, brilliant self. :)
Love all that you do! You will be a great asset to this group....look forward to meeting you at some point!
