Fashion Icon Friday: André Leon Talley
To celebrate New York Fashion Week, our fashion icon is the man who has been in more front rows at fashion shows than we can count—André Leon Talley.
The former editor-at-large for Vogue magazine has been a fashion show staple across the globe for shows in New York, London, Paris, and Milan. After receiving his Masters from Brown University, André Leon Talley moved to New York and worked as Andy Warhol's assistant at Interview Magazine. He then became associated with Vogue editor-in-chief at the time, Diana Vreeland, and by 1983 was working at Vogue as a fashion news editor. Over the years he moved up in Vogue, eventually becoming Editor-at-Large and having his own column, Life with André.
On top of his long career at Vogue, André has also been a judge for America's Next Top Model, alongside Tyra Banks. He has written a few books, and is involved in ballet and other philanthropies. Over the years, André Leon Talley has used his influence to inspire young creatives and designers - he currently serves on the Board of Trustees for Savannah College of Art and Design. When spotted in the front row, or on the red carpet, you can't miss André Leon Talley's bold style - often decked out in furs and tribal-inspired clothing. We hope to catch a glimpse of him this fashion week!
Fashion Icon Friday: Bianca JaggerBianca Jagger is synonymous with 1970's fashion icons.
The Nicaraguan born model, actress, socialite and activist became known in the 1970's because of her marriage to Rolling Stones leadman, Mick Jagger. While they were together, they were the "it" couple of their time having married in France - both in YSL. Bianca became a socialite, helping out with numerous charitable organizations while fabulously jetsetting. She was associated with the notorious New York City nightclub Studio 54, frequenting in gold and sequins, often with her close friend, Andy Warhol. For her 30th birthday, She even rode in on a horse wearing a dress designed by her good friend, Roy Halston Frowick. Bianca's style was classy with glam, doting one-shoulder dresses, plunging v-necks, and Grecian gowns.Today, Bianca is known for her role in human and social activism. She founded Bianca Jagger Human Rights Foundation and is a member of Amnesty International. She is also on the Council of Europe Goodwill Ambassador and has spoken around the world about various world issues. To this day she remains fashionable and graceful and will always be remembered as a style icon.
Fashion Icon Friday: Edie Sedgwick
Edie Sedgwick, the Factory "it girl," movie star, model, and Andy Warhol's muse was also a fashion icon of the 1960s.
The heiress and socialite, originally from California, moved out east to study art. By 1965, Edie fell into the New York art and party scene with Andy Warhol and the rest of his Factory. Edie started starring in his black and white films like Poor Little Rich Girl and appearing in his prints. She was known for her boyish figure and only wearing tights with leotards or mini dresses. She kept a short bouffant blonde haircut that was constantly decorated with chandelier earrings. Part of her iconic style was also her charcoal-lined eyes and long, thick eyelashes.
Besides Andy Warhol, Edie was also an inspiration for Bob Dylan during her infamous relationship with him, as well as Bobby Neuwirth. Unfortunately, Edie lived a tragic and short life that ended back in Santa Barbara when she was only 28. Her fashion legacy lives on as one of the fashion icons that shaped the style of her time.
We love the film Factory Girl which stars another one of our fashion icons, Sienna Miller portraying Edie Sedgwick.
Fashion Icon Friday: Daphne Guinness
Who can say they are a muse for Karl Lagerfeld, BFF's with the late Alexander McQueen, used to party with Andy Warhol, modeled in the exclusive Tom Ford women's collection show, and had a MAC cosmetic line inspired by them?
Daphne Guinness can, and that doesn't even scratch the surface of what an impact she has had on the fashion, art, and film worlds. Daphne has quite the family background; she's an heir to the Guinness—yes the beer makers—family and her mother was a muse for Man Ray and Dali. Daphne followed in her mother's footsteps, as she has been a muse to countless designers and artists—even Lady Gaga has said she's inspired by her.
Daphne doesn't just inspire fashion and art, but gives back to other artists, theaters, and libraries. She has participated in a number of charity events and fashion shows. Daphne has also been an artist herself, as well as an actress, and produced short films. Third Wave Fashion got to check out the exhibit at The Museum at FIT devoted to the amazing fashion pieces of Daphne Guinness.
She truly emulates the phrase "Fashion Icon."

has will not come on until it's warmed up above 20-26 F
Here's Maxell's battery, not too much variation with temp.
That chart is at 0c
Took a 2032 cell. From room temperature to -5F in the freezer and back to room temperature the voltage was between 3.33 and 3.34V (more precisely 3.332 and 3.342). There was an initial jump in voltage after putting the battery in the freezer that lasted about 10min, the the voltage decreased to 3.336-3.338V. After bringing it back to room temperature the voltage stabilized again to ~3.332V.BORING....
That was an unloaded voltage?
Yes, no load...
Yes, no load...
But under load the battery will produce less power (fewer amps).
But that extra resistance may decrease the output voltage enough to cause the gauge to malfunction.
Of course in my case the root cause was an improperly designed circuit that required 3+ volts to function properly instead of going down to 2.6 - 2.7V.
Typical "3V" CMOS chips are actually designed to accept VCC = 3.3V +/- 0.3V. So the lower end of acceptable VCC is actually 3V which may be higher than a partially discharged CR2032 battery.
Solution is a buck-boost DC-DC converter IC to supply stable 3.3V from a single CR2032 cell. But that of course will cost an extra buck or two.

Ways To Help
About The
Children Of Fallen Soldiers Relief Fund
The Children of
Fallen Soldiers Relief Fund is a 501 (c) (3)
organization that was founded October 23, 2003 by Rebecca
Campbell and is based in the D.C. Metropolitan area.
(the CFSRF incorporated in 2006 thus our fein changed to 20-4526203
and the letter of determination from the IRS from 2003 under
the previous fein is no longer applicable)
After the attacks on our nation her youngest
son enlisted in the U.S. Army and served with the 82nd Airborne
out of Fort Bragg, N.C. Her nephew was already serving in
the USMC and was deployed to Afghanistan as well as other
close friends. In February 2003 her son was deployed to Baghdad
and later that year with the help of family and friends she
organized a fundraiser to help children affected by the loss
of a parent. The idea was to help one or two children who
had lost their parent(s) overseas during his or her deployment
with college assistance. The first fundraiser was held two
weeks later and was a big success! She simply cannot stop
and with the help of volunteers and the public we continue
with our mission of support. Her son, nephew and other close
friends did come home, however, others have not and with the
continual support from the public the dream to help our families
in need is becoming a reality.
Our Mission:
The CFSRF was founded in order to provide support
to surviving U.S. Military children and spouses that
have lost a loved one in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars or whose
service member has sustained a serious disability.
Our objectives are to help U.S. Military children and
spouses with College Grants as well as provide financial assistance
to those families in need of help with housing,
utilities, food and clothing. Often, when a loss occurs in
these families what was a two person income becomes one. The
financial hardships placed on these families are very difficult
to deal with. Their lives are devastated and forever changed.
We are determined to help make the last wishes
of those lost to the casualty of war possible by assisting
their families with their needs. However, we can only
do this through the help of others.
Our dream
is to make a difference in the lives of the families that
have given up their future and companionship of their loved
ones. We honor the fallen by providing a "gift"
to their families as a token of our appreciation. We
can never replace the love and warmth that is forever gone,
but with your help we can all honor our fallen.
None of
the Board, Committee or Trustee members have been affected
personally by the loss of a service member. We are simply
individuals that hold a tremendous amount of respect for our
service men and women both of present and of past!
Those involved in our organization are not affiliated
with any corporate, governmental, celebrity or otherwise known
groups, we are simply an enthusiastic group of family,
friends and businesses who chose to "never forget"
the sacrifices made by others for us!
Many grandparents, great-grandparents, mothers,
fathers, daughters and sons just coming together in support
of our troops and their loved ones.
If you or someone you know is interested in
volunteering for the Children of Fallen Soldiers Relief Fund,
Inc. please feel free to contact us. Event Coordinators that
can help support others and represent the CFSRF during fundraising
events should email us at: email@example.com.
A special message
to my son:
So brave you are, so strong and so proud
My freedom fighter where are you now?
Amongst the land so far away
Your shoulders pulled back as you fight your way
Into the sand, no light to see
I pray that you will always be
Close to the one that protects us from fear
As I count on him to bring you near
And of the ones that protest those rights
To live our lives you fight with all might
Just so they can wake up each day
In our land that you've made this way
Their tears don't flow, their hearts torn in half
But, because of my son they still can laugh
Who has given them rights to all end
You and your comrades who'll fight at each bend
The things you'll see, the fear you'll bear
While all that love you cry many a tear
Who can you count on when you come home?
I will not leave you, you are never alone
As I cry for you each night
I wish you blessed paths so bright
If only others could see what it means
To have a son like you are to me
Not knowing just where or how safe you are now
The tears they won't stop I just don't know how
To keep you close with me ever in my thoughts
I am so fearful that I'll lose you for naught.
A Proud 82nd Mom ~ April 2003

Waiting, waiting, and more waiting…
Waiting is something all of us do in life. And while some people like to ensure that waiting is a great learning experience, in reality it feels more like a mental and emotional torture chamber.
To be honest, I dislike waiting. I've never been good at it. I've always liked to get things done as soon as possible, and at a time that was most convenient to my schedule. But over the years I've realized that life doesn't revolve around me. Time does not click in parallel to my heart. And what I think will never be more important that what God already knows.
Have you ever been in a waiting room? You know, that smelly, dimly lit room that feels like the black hole of all rooms. And regardless of why you are there, it's usually for a good reason. I can't really think of any waiting room that wasn't strategically placed in line before hearing important news.
My point is: Don't expect anything of substantial value to come out of a speedy process. I'm not saying it can't happen, but realistically it won't. In fact, scripture even promotes this very fact.
Proverbs 14:29 – Whoever is patient has great understanding, but one who is quick-tempered displays folly.
Proverbs 21:5 – Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.
The reality is: Life is a waiting room, and patience is the antidote. Don't be in a rush to move forward when God might want you right where you're standing.
Challenge: Anytime you feel impatience creeping within your bones, recite Proverbs 14:29, and pray for God to gift you with the blessing of patience.
Through patience and diligence, the snail reached the Ark.
- Jarrid Wilson
"The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in His love He will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing" (Zephaniah 3:17, NIV)
So many people in this day and age never received the blessing from their mother or father. They never felt like they received the approval and encouragement they so deeply desired. If that's you today, the good news is that when you receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you become His child. Your earthly father may not have given you his blessing, but your heavenly Father is rejoicing over you! He's saying, "I'm proud of you. I love you. You are amazing. You are talented. You are beautiful. You're going to do great things in life!" He's releasing favor and hope into your future.
Today, no matter what's happened in your past, no matter what anybody else has said to you or about you, know that your Father God loves you with an everlasting love. He's proud of you, and He is singing over you. Receive His love today. Receive His approval today. Receive hope today. Have confidence and strength to move forward because you have the blessing of your heavenly Father!
When all seems lost, Jesus says, "Just trust me." In the darkest night, Jesus says, "Just trust me." While most of us know these words and find them easy to believe in church services when things are going well, they are often much tougher to believe when we find circumstances similar to what Jairus was facing. Fear paralyzes us! Fear controls our thoughts! Fear steals away our faith! So Jesus says, "Don't be afraid. Just trust me!" May God give us the strength to do just that when we face fearful times.
So many people today are living with less than God's best because they've allowed fear to creep in and take root in their lives. Fear is the greatest weapon the enemy uses to try to hold us back. Fear is not from God. Scripture tells us that fear brings torment. It's designed to paralyze us and keep us from God's blessings.
The good news is that God is greater than fear. His power in you is greater than any power that comes against you. But, in order to walk in His power, you have to close the door on the enemy. See, the enemy can't have access to your life unless you open a door and give him access. That's why we have to be careful about what we watch, what we listen to, what we read, and what we say. When we open ourselves to fear, we give the enemy opportunity.
If you've allowed fear to steal from you in any area of life, today you can be free — you can be finished with fear. Conquering the enemy starts by making the choice to close the door on fear by receiving God's love and meditating on His promises. Receive His truth and speak His truth. Let Him set you free and lead you into victory as you close the door on fear.
" And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28, NIV).
God has a plan to take every adversity and every hardship you go through and use it. He's not going to beat you down and make your life miserable. No, God's dream is to take that difficulty and supernaturally turn it around and use it to bring you good. He will use those tough times to bring you out stronger, more mature and prepared for promotion! Goodness, mercy and unfailing love are God's plan for you!
You may not understand everything that's going on in your life right now, but I encourage you to keep your head held high. Know that God is working in your life. Keep being faithful. Keep doing the right thing, knowing that in the end God is going to turn things around in your favor. If God is for you, who can be against you? No one. Greater is the One who is in you than anyone who can be against you. No matter what's going on around you today, you can put your shoulders back and put a smile on your face because God is working things together for your good because He loves you!

Octomom's graffiti-riddled den of filth is morphing back into a normal-looking house -- at least for now -- because the entire interior just got a fresh new paint job ... and TMZ got the photos.
As we first reported, La Habra Police Department and the Orange County Dept. of Children and Family Services showed up at Nadya Suleman's home Tuesday, after receiving a complaint that the mother of 14 lets her kids live in horrendous conditions.
But today, DialAStar.com -- the website that pays celebs to talk to their fans on the phone -- donated the company's first month of profits (over $10,000) to spruce up Nadya's house.
A rep for the website -- which employs Octomom along with several other celebs -- tells TMZ, cleaners have already started painting over the giant murals of graffiti inside and outside of the house, patching holes in the wall, and fixing the doors.
As for Octomom's stylist's claims that only one toilet works in the house -- we got video of Octo proving it's no longer true ... you see her flushing THREE toilets.
CPS should have given her a Swirly in one of those toilets instead of a thumbs up...
Will she lose her state funded assistance after they just gave her 10,000? Brazillian blowout is going to give her money too, etc? So if she also claims she has money coming in, it does sort of seem like she is using everyone, including the tax payers now.
Oh my!I think TMZ IS SWINE is really Charley Manson!Lol & he reads TMZ hahahaha...well of course~
She allows her kids to trash the place then suckers go in and fix it for free. lol. Good God how dumb are people.
botch please this isnt the last month your going to be on food stamps she will be on it but no one will admit it.. this bitch aint got a job to handle her kids with no money .. just put them in a foster home and they will be better off,.
So what? While the laziest bitch on earth, OCTOMOM, is sleeping in or taking a 2 hour bubble bath...her older kids will be destroying the house again. She doesn't give a flying f*ck, the more trashed, the less likely it will sell. I think all of us with a brain can agree, that is 1 crazy, lazy, worthless bitch!
How can child services leave those kids there when they are obviously allowed to weild a knife or an ax. Thats what it takes to make those kinds of marks/gashes in the door.
The gashes were obviously made after the cleaning was done. This woman has absolutely no control over any of her children. Yet she is allowed to keep them? This is clearly unsafe for the children. It's supposed to be children's protection services, not lets help some crazy woman ruin a whole slew of kids lives all at once.
This woman is such a mess. Exactly how did she think she was going to afford all these kids once the media frenzy ends? If she can't afford to go to work because she can't afford daycare, she can't afford for them to be in sports or other extra curriculars as they get older either.
And, why in the world does she allow these children to destroy their HOME? What's she doing that they're able to draw all over the interior and exterior?
Nadia, I don't care how many excuses you make for yourself. STEP IT UP.
Am I the only one that thinks all they did was cover the walls and door with cardboard?
Jeepers, TMZ...I'd rather see you donate money to these 14 children to give them a chance at life instead of rewarding the baby killer Casey Anthony by paying her for staged photos!
They think she's doing a great job?! That's the joke of the day. Thing is again somebody gave her money and bailed her out she's not competant enough by herself.
The only reason to support this is because THE CHILDREN are better off for it. Broken toilets mean raw sewage, and holes in walls are nothing but a hazard. As for the graffiti, at least we know Nadya can spell (sorta) This woman has no shame when she SHOULD. Is there anyone left to helps this family for the CHILDREN'S SAKE and NOT for the free publicity? Dial A Star should've done their homework. When she loses this house in a matter of days I can think of MANY worthwhile families who could've used that 10-grand. Anybody wanna bet Octomom calls her attorney and threatens LAWSUIT when the auction makes her leave? That's all this crazy woman knows. God forbid something happens to her children ... how on earth will she make a living then?
Her only job is to take care of her children and her home.
I saw such a mess still in those pictures including the filth filling up the runners on the bathtub for the doors.
She could have painted herself, filled holes, patched holes, fixed toilets or called a plumber for a hundred bucks to do it, doors on cabinets get a screwdriver even an electic one if need be(20 bucks), and some wood filler and get the doors back up, same with everything broken in that house. As a single mom myself years ago YOU lEARN TO do these things and its trial and error, you eventually get it done and fixed and its a huge good feeling. Octo, just make lists of what do to, what you need, and look on the internet under "how to screw back on door to a wood cabinet" if you have to. Just do it, and you will be surprised at how well your house starts to look, and how well you feel about doing it. You have a 8 hr job, then another 8 hour job of being just Mom, that is what most of us do, but you get to do those 16 hrs all at home, then sleep for another 8 if you are lucky. So 16 hrs a day should be on the house, the kids and nothing else. THAT is the job you chose to do. Now learn to do it and feel the pride.
IT IS HER JOB and if she is working it 24/7 like a job 8 hrs, then a mom for another 8 hours like most of us do, then that house should be emaculate at all times except a few toys out.
Seriously what does she do all day??? There is no excuse for her house to look like that at all. As far as more mattresses for the babies to all sleep, hello, Pennysaver, or garage sales.
First off, why do her young children have access to spray paint? Why don't her toilets work and why is she still allowed custody of those children? Does anyone else see these problems?
Um, does anyone see the turd on the floor in the corner of the bathroom by the "working toilet"?

Self-Injury: Why Young People Do It and Where to Go for Help
A surprising number of Americans seek relief from emotional pain through self-injury or mutilation. They cut, burn or strike themselves, often hiding their wounds beneath their clothing. These actions are not suicide attempts, but rather efforts to cope with psychological trauma and stress, and sometimes physical or sexual abuse. Up to a quarter of teenagers and young adults have intentionally hurt themselves at least once. And mental health experts are worried the Internet is causing the phenomenon to spread. We'll talk with psychologists who study and treat the condition and a young woman who has recovered.
assistant professor of clinical psychology, University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada.
a Washington, D.C., psychotherapist who has treated more than 700 young people for self-injury.
a young woman who engaged in self-injurious behavior as a teenager and now works as a nurse; she requested that we use only part of her real name.

Chicago prosecutors have added Jeffrey Hollinghead and Willie Feliciano to a "racketeering case targeting an Outfit-connected crew accused of home invasions, armed robberies, burglaries, insurance fraud, prostitution, arson and a plot to murder a witness" as reported by Frank Main for the Sun-Times. The original case was brought last July, and among the defendants include "longtime convicted burglars Robert Panozzo and Paul Koroluk" who are "allegedly tied to Albert 'Little Guy' Vena, the reputed head of the Grand Avenue mob."

As if the players haven't endured enough waiting they more may be more of a delay with the start of training camps. CBS Sports reports that the original date of Dec. 9th may be pushed back until Dec. 12th. That's not much of a delay, but with the season starting in just 19 days every minute of training collectively for squads is vital.
"Teams with just a handful of guys under contract have been complaining that it's going to be too difficult to start on Friday," one league executive said.
The league office has been polling executives over the last 48 hours to determine what to do.
The players have re-formed as a union and are starting the ratification process of a new collective bargaining agreement on Wednesday, which is necessary for camps to open. But there are also still a bunch of things that need to be resolved like the so-called "b-list" issues before the players can finish this up in time to vote. The owners have a Board of Governors meeting Thursday where they will vote on the new CBA.
Most Knicks players including Carmelo Anthony have jumped at the opportunity to enter the teams facilities. Every minute of delayed time can hinder the cohesiveness that needs to occur for this Knicks squad success.

Camp Shai provides an exciting and innovative, values-based Jewish summer day camping experience. We encourage the personal growth of each of our campers through a variety of fun and engaging learning opportunities, guided by a highly-trained and caring staff. Campers will acquire new skills, develop a sense of self and independence while also discovering what it means to belong to a safe, supportive and enriching community. Children will discover their own Jewish Journey and will have an amazing time doing it!
Inclusivity is an essential component of the Camp Shai experience. Campers, staff and parents of all faiths and backgrounds will feel a part of the Camp Shai community, through the daily practice of universal values that we learn from our Jewish traditions.
Camp Shai Middot (values)
There are four Middot (values) at the center of the Camp Shai community:
Chesed (Kindness)
Kavod (Respect)
Acharayut (Responsibility)
Shituf Peulah (Cooperation)
These values are the basis for everything we do at Camp Shai and are woven into every aspect of camp. Every morning at our morning circle we will award the "Might Middot" to campers and staff, recognizing them for instances in which they were exemplars of our Middot. Our goal is for all members of our community to feel valued for who they are and what they bring to one another.

'); } -->
The Israeli-Arab conflict is stripped to its most intensely personal level in "The Attack," a haunting and heartbreaking meditation on violence, choice, love and duty that is one of the most remarkable films of the year.
There's a fizzy silliness to "Despicable Me 2" that will make it a huge word-of-mouth hit among key demographics. That would be 2- to 6-year-olds, and parents who enjoy seeing their kids curled into balls of uncontrollable laughter.
Rodriguez isn't the only musical figure from '70s Detroit to labor in anonymity in the U.S. and then get discovered nearly 40 years later. A trio called Death - a group that defied cultural convention by being an African-American punk band before that musical term even existed - is also now enjoying a renaissance that Mark Christopher Covino and Jeff Howlett's eye-opening documentary "A Band Called Death" engagingly chronicles.
Superman steps over the line and installs himself as king of the world in "Injustice: Gods Among Us," the new fighting game from the people behind the legendary "Mortal Kombat."
It will be fireworks for "Despicable Me 2" at the box office this Fourth of July, but "The Lone Ranger" could be a dud.
Following is a partial schedule of coming movies on DVD. Release dates are subject to change:
The legend of the band Big Star was born back in May 1973, when a promoter flew legions of young rock critics into Memphis for a "convention" that was essentially a stunt to get them to hear Big Star perform.
Kevin Hart throws jokes like he's working a speed bag.
In the universe of "Gunpoint," firearms are banned. It's a creative choice that's downright bold for any piece of pop culture in 2013, but especially the trigger-happy world of gaming. But "Gunpoint" shows that compelling action sequences can consist of little more than plotting, creeping and puzzle-solving.
The studio executives must think money normally spent on DVDs will go to fireworks this holiday week. Pickings are slim.
Pierce Brosnan's daughter has died from ovarian cancer, his publicist confirms.
ORLANDO, Fla. - Sam Rockwell's reliably scruffy, irreverent swagger is much in evidence in his latest film - "The Way, Way Back." It's a serio-comic coming of age tale which has Rockwell playing Owen, the slacker manager of a water slide park who teaches our young hero, Duncan (Liam James), about girls, love and self-worth.
It may be difficult to separate Johnny Depp from his "Pirates" character Jack Sparrow, but the actor recalls a time before the boozy buccaneer became a household name.
The following game is among those scheduled for release this week, according to Gamestop.com:
LOS ANGELES - If you looked up into the sky over L.A.'s 101 Freeway last weekend, you might have noticed a massive, yellow, cylindrical aircraft hovering above the traffic. The floating orb was a blimp painted in the image of a minion - the gibberish-speaking henchmen from Universal Pictures' "Despicable Me 2."
In the timeline of the standard stand-up comic's career, Kevin Hart has surged past "young, angry and hungry," seems to be avoiding Dave Chappelle / Andy Kaufman burnout and is settling just shy of fat, happy and car-collecting smug (Seinfeld, Leno, Chris Tucker).
"Despicable Me" had two big things going for it - heart and humor.
There's a limit, it turns out, to how much Johnny Depp and a bucket of makeup can accomplish.
The U.N. women's agency is teaming up with actress Geena Davis to support the first global study of how women and girls are portrayed in family films, saying the images have a strong impact on how females see themselves.
"The Heat" is hot, but it was "Monsters University" who came out on top at the weekend box office.
I can't remember when, if ever, Pedro Almodovar has had as much flamboyant fun as he does in the high-flying comedy "I'm So Excited!"
In the future, all movies will be "Die Hard."
"Monsters University" scared up the No. 1 spot at the box office for the second weekend in a row, while No. 2 "The Heat" scorched the competition among new films.
Actor Jim Kelly, who played a glib American martial artist in "Enter the Dragon" with Bruce Lee, has died. He was 67.
Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy brought "The Heat" against Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx at the box office.

Carrot Cake Made With Bread Flour
{ 8 comments… read them below or add one }
- June 19, 2009 at 7:49 am
I am such a fan of carrot cake, but never want to make it at home because I don't want to end up eating all of it myself!
Anyway, I have a question about the recipe you posted recently for bran muffins (http://www.cookiemadness.net/?p=3869) adapted from Joy the Baker. It calls for 6 TBSP milk and 6 TBSP buttermilk. I was wondering how you think they'd be if I used all buttermilk (12 TBSP) instead. They look delicious, but I'm trying to use up some buttermilk I have in the fridge.
- June 19, 2009 at 7:52 am
It looks fabulous, but 619 calories a slice–well, at least they are honest!
- June 19, 2009 at 8:25 am
Ooh, just the picture is definitely worth safe keeping! Love carrot cake, down to its very last calorie. I've actually made one low cal/low fat, it's still good, but never as good as the real thing! This one does sound great.
- June 19, 2009 at 9:18 am
I could very easily do without the icing. The cake itself looks amazing! But, I better not make it while trying to lose a few pounds!
- June 19, 2009 at 9:54 am
That recipe looks very good. I haven't made a carrot cake in years, but when I do I use the recipe out of the Silver Palate Cookbook. Maybe it's time to update?

The WACC is an acronym for weighted average cost of capital that a company or entity has to pay to help finance a project. As it says it is an average where the weights are the proportions of debt, equity and preferrence stock. The three components are the cost of debt, cost of equity and cost of preferred stock. Thus a cost of debt is the interest rate that must be returned by the investment to pay for the financing. Anything above the WACC from the investment is to keep as profits by the company. If an investment projects fails to make enough returns to match the WACC then the company would have to pay out of its pockets to the lenders. Here I present you a WACC document as a Word file that will explore the topic of weighted average cost of capital in detail. A WACC formula will be provided along with example calculation of WACC. The document will also highlight the use of Excel WACC formula that may be used as worksheet function to find the weighted average cost of capital.
Finding WACC in Excel
Up until Excel 2013, there were no native financial functions in Excel to find the WACC - weighted average cost of capital. In spring of 2012, tadXL add-in for finance was unleashed on the software market that offered its own set of financial functions. tadXL contains over 100 new financial functions that may be used as worksheet functions for Excel 2007, 2010 and 2013. The word spread quickly when the promotion videos for tadXL went viral on YouTube resulting in surge for orders for this unique and feature rich library of financial functions for Excel. The author of tadXL has his own sets of core values that he practices and this was one of the reasons he found himself left out of making big bucks off his crown jewel software product. But competition was in no mood to lose out on a quick large pile of cash and they decided to work their sets of financial functions that would be based on those found in tadXL. It would not surprise me if Microsoft were to introduce a new set of financial functions in upcoming Excel 2015 or 2016 but that would leave the author asking a very simple question. If nothing for financial functions in Excel changed in the last 24 years what brings about the inclusion of new set of financial functions in upcoming Excel. You would think that copy rights are only violated by companies and countries outside the US, but it would seem those who demand enforcement of copy protection against piracy do not give high regards to rights of other copy rights holders whose genuine ideas seem to be left out of the mass market.
Using tadXL functions such as tadWACC_1, tadWACC_2, and tadWACC_3 finding weighted average cost of capital in Excel 2007, 2010 and 2013 becomes really easy. Let us now briefly look at each of these three financial functions in tadXL to find WACC using Excel:
In the first example, CAPM is used for cost of equity.
=tadWACC_1( {PKd, Kd, taxrate, PKe, Rf, ERm, Beta} )
PKd - proportion or weightage of cost of debt
Kd - cost of debt
PKd - proportion or weightage of cost of equity
Rf - risk free rate
ERm - expected market rate of return
In the second example, values for WACC components and their weightage is known.
=tadWACC_2( {PKd, Kd, taxrate, PKcs, Kcs, PKps, Kps} )
PKd - proportion or weightage of cost of debt
Kd - cost of debt
PKcs - proportion or weightage of cost of commony stock
Kcs - cost of commony stock
PKps - proportion or weightage of cost of preferred stock
Kps - cost of preferred stock
In the third example, values for WACC components are unknown yet their weightage is known.
=tadWACC_3( {PKd, BT, Vb, C, T, taxrate, PKcs, Vcs, Dcs, G, PKps, Vps, Dps} )
PKd - proportion or weightage of cost of debt
BT - maturity value of debt
Vb - market price of debt
C - coupon rate of debt
T - years to maturity
PKcs - proportion or weightage of cost of commony stock
Vcs - market price of common stock
Dcs - dividend paid by common stock
G - expected growth rate
PKps - proportion or weightage of cost of preferred stock
Vcs - market price of preferred stock
Dcs - dividend paid by preferred stock

I am not a comics professional / hardcore fan. Should I still submit a photo?
If you interact with or enjoy comics in any way, you are comics, too; and you are welcome here.
I am a straight white man between the ages of 18 and 39. I want to express solidarity / speak up, but I don't want to drown out other voices. Should I still submit a photo?
Absolutely—but please consider adding a statement of solidarity to your sign and/or bio!
Can I include a link to my tumblr / twitter / website / current project?
Totally, but if it's NSFW, please indicate that.
Why has my submission not gone up yet?
Our queue is literally weeks long at this point, so please be patient. The nature of your submission might be a factor, too: did you submit a wall of text? It will probably end up being bumped below shorter/more visually oriented submissions.
Who runs this tumblr?
As of right now, the We Are Comics team is Rachel Edidin, Arturo Garcia, Elle Collins, and Sigrid Ellis; with Jen Vaughn lending a hand on social media and Becky Hawkins on behind-the-scenes organizing!
How can I get in touch with you?
The best way is via the ask box, a submission, or our Twitter, but we are all pretty googleable (and share point-duty on PR as it comes up).
Wait, you're on Twitter?

Dancer, choreographer, filmmaker, and writer Yvonne Rainer is one of the most influential artistic figures of the last 50 years. Her work has been foundational across multiple disciplines and movements: dance, cinema, feminism, minimalism, conceptual art, and postmodernism. Rainer's works became increasingly personal and political, and by the early 1970s she had begun to focus on producing experimental feature films. In 2000, Rainer returned to choreography and has continued to produce provocative and surprising new works to the present day. Through October 12.
Over 180 ancient glass objects from the collection of Erwin Oppenländer are featured in this exhibition. The Oppenländer collection, which the Getty acquired in 2003, is remarkable for its cultural and chronological breadth. It includes works made in Mesopotamia, Egypt, the Greek world, and the Roman Empire, and spans the entire period of ancient glass production, from its origins in Mesopotamia in about 2500 B.C. to Byzantine and Islamic glass of the eleventh century A.D.. This ongoing exhibit begins October 8.
"TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!" raves the New York Post for JERSEY BOYS, the 2006 Tony, Grammy and Olivier Award®-winning Best Musical about Rock and Roll Hall of Famers The Four Seasons: Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi. This is the true story of how four blue-collar kids became one of the greatest successes in pop music history. They wrote their own songs, invented their own sounds and sold 175 million records worldwide – all before they were 30! JERSEY BOYS features their hit songs "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," "Rag Doll," "Oh What a Night" and "Can't Take My Eyes Off You." "THE CROWD GOES WILD!" cheers The New York Times. September 30 - October 19.

September 30th - October 23.
This exhibition features the work of influential American modernist painter Marsden Hartley (1877–1943). Approximately twenty-five of the artist's seminal works from his years spent in Berlin (1913–1915) reveal the profound impact of World War I and elucidate the artist's appropriation of military symbols and Native American motifs. The exhibition, organized by the Neue Nationalgalerie, Berlin, in collaboration with LACMA, coincides with the centennial commemoration of World War I.
The efforts of MOCA's Acquisition & Collection, Photography, and Drawings committees, as well as those of many generous individuals and institutions, have enabled the museum to cultivate one of the premier collections of contemporary art in the United States.

Craig Marks and Rob Tanenbaum
It seems like oral histories are becoming a more and more prominent way to explore a specific event in pop culture. Last year I read both the oral history of Saturday Night Live and the oral history of Chris Farley's life and death, and Grantland recently put out a pretty incredible one about ; there was a funny one about the short-lived , etc.
I will always prefer well-researched, well-written non-fiction books to straight oral histories. Sometimes (a lot of the time), even with creative, funny people who were involved in these movies or shows or lives, the straight retelling of events can become somewhat boring, and even though these people are speaking their own words, you lose a lot of the voice that made their work of fiction so compelling.
It's a similar deal here, where Craig Marks and Rob Tanenbaum let the executives, VJs, artists, and directors tell the story of how MTV was created and flourished. Literally, the most dynamic voice on the page here belonged to Sebastian Bach. He's funny and ironic and has a billion times more charisma than most of the other musicians in these pages (Marks and Tanenbaum interviewed hundreds of people for this book). Sample: "I'm looking at [my hair] right now. It's so flaxen!" and he's ultimately a footnote in music history. For such a creative group of people, they all sound kind of the same.
I Want my MTV only covers the channel's inception through 1992. I was born in 1984 and thus don't have much memory of a lot of the events and artists covered in the pages. I know who Warrant, Winger, Whitesnake, Poison, and Motley Crue are, of course, and I like them in a cheesy and ironic way, but I don't think I ever realized how heavily MTV played and relied on hairbands in the early '80′s. I never knew that MTV initially resisted playing Michael Jackson videos (there are some very interesting stories of racism and sexism – sexism bordering on misogyny – in these pages). I learned a lot about videos I had never seen and spent a lot of time on youtube while I was reading, so that was fun.
Since I began watching MTV in the mid-to-late '90′s, I was already familiar with their non-music programming. Marks and Tanenbaum give quite a lot of space to those who defend and those who deride the decision for MTV to move away from only showing music videos. It's interesting to see the divide even amongst the network's brass, and how the artists and their teams were affected. Still, it was odd to get only one chapter on The Real World, which is arguably one of the biggest television shows ever created. There's also an even longer chapter on Remote Control, which again I don't think I can fully appreciate the relevance of, as I never watched it when it originally aired.
I really, really wish the book could gave gone at least through 2000. I would have loved to have heard more about grunge exploding (we get a lot on Nirvana, of course, but nothing on their amazing 1993 Unplugged), which is very briefly touched upon but obviously extended beyond '92; I'd love insight into the era of Britney, Christina before she became X-Tina, NSYNC, and the Backstreet Boys. Dave Holmes is included all over this text, because he is clearly one of the best VJs, but I would have liked to have heard from Idalis and John Sencio ( just told me he hosts a show on HGTV?). I would tooootaally read a Volume Two if I could be guaranteed that Chris Hartwick would just shit all over MTV and Singled Out for a few paragraphs. I would read a Volume Two, regardless – this was a fun if not earth-shattering book, and for nearly 600 pages was a quick read.

8 Welsh history: weblinks
8.1 Introduction
The following links represent a series of online resources for the study of Welsh history. Each of the sites has been examined by the unit team and selected as helpful to further your study of Welsh history. There is a vast array of impressive resources for you to explore.
Libraries, archives and museums
National Library of Wales: www.llgc.org.uk
Access in both Welsh and English. As well as its own library catalogues, it has a useful and wide variety of online resources, including, on its 'Digital Mirror' link:
- Page-by-page photographic access to a range of original documents (several dating back to the Middle Ages), including the Laws of Hywel Dda, Iolo Morganwg's notes for a 'History of the British Bards', the travel writings of some eighteenth-century tourists to Wales, and letters written by Welsh emigrants to America and Australia.
- 'Welsh Biography Online', an electronic version of the Dictionary of Welsh Biography, covering the lives of eminent Welsh people up to 1971.
- Collections of photographs, including the Senghennydd mining disaster, 1913.
- Some archive collections, including the Diary of David Lloyd George for 1886 and a collection of his letters to his brother William.
- Exhibitions on a variety of subjects, including Welsh architecture and the life of David Lloyd George.
On its 'Family History' link, there are some useful online archival databases, including:
- A searchable database of Gaol Files, 1730–1830.
- Searchable access to the Manorial Documents Register.
Archives Network Wales: www.archivesnetworkwales.info
The Archives Network Wales website contains standardised descriptions of the extent, type and scope of collections of historical documents held by Record Offices, universities and other bodies in Wales. It also provides links to further information and access details for the repositories. It is an index to sources rather than a source itself.
Gathering the Jewels: the website for Welsh cultural history: www.gtj.org.uk/
Accessible, well-presented site hosted by the National Library of Wales. Contains a huge number of images (both pictures and documents) on a vast range of subjects, from pre-Christian worship to the coal industry. Organised under topics. There is a brief description of each image, but no linking commentary. Useful if you're seeking pictorial material.
The National Archives: www.nationalarchives.gov.uk
The National Archives at Kew, Surrey, are the official archive for England, Wales and the UK government, covering 900 years of history. The site provides online access to searchable catalogues of its vast range of records, but also a great deal more. In particular, under 'Research, education and online exhibitions' there is a wealth of helpful advice on how to get started and how to extend your skills in archival research, including family history, local history, military history and house history. Some manuscripts and documents are available online, including some highlights of the NA collection. There are excellent links to the UK archives network.
National Museum Wales: www.museumwales.ac.uk
Access in both Welsh and English. The museum's 'Rhagor' website is an on-going project to make the various national collections more accessible online. It contains a number of subject-based homepages, including one for History, where you can access images, articles and interactive features.
BBC Wales/Eclips: www.bbc.co.uk/wales/eclips/
Eclips is an audio-visual resource provided by BBC Wales. It makes available numerous clips from the BBC Wales audio and video archive. The idea is that teachers can use them to illustrate lessons, but they have an obvious interest for a much wider audience. They can be sorted in various ways, including by keyword, subject and/or age of the audience. The history resources are well worth exploring.
BBC/Wales History: www.bbc.co.uk/wales/history/
Accessible general-interest site with short sections from Roman Wales to the present day and numerous thematic sections, for example: castles; the Welsh language; family history; and myths and legends. All sections are short but useful reference tools, presentation is very user-friendly, and there are some good pictorial illustrations. The material has been collected by the well-known Welsh historian Dr John Davies and offers a generalist context for periods and topics in Welsh history.
A Brief History of Wales: www.britannia.com/wales/whist.html
Accessible general-interest site with bite-sized section on Wales from prehistoric times to the present. Has sections on themes, for example, Welsh literature, the Welsh Bible, industry and Methodism in Wales. Has some pictorial illustrations, but these tend to be small and are not described. Worth a visit if you are seeking generalised information.
Imaging the Bible in Wales: www.imagingthebible.org/wales
Project based at the University of Wales, Lampeter, analysing the social, political and theological questions raised by Welsh biblical visual culture, and aiming to preserve its contribution to the intellectual, artistic and cultural heritage of Wales, 1825–1975. Collection of Biblical images from churches and chapels in Wales, with academic commentaries. In English only.
Llafur: the Welsh People's History Society: www.llafur.org/indexe.htm
Llafur publishes an important journal, Llafur: the Journal of Welsh People's History, and its contents pages can be searched on the site.
The Rhondda: www.therhondda.co.uk
Aims to provide a socio-economic history of the Rhondda Valleys during the period 1800 to 1950, but is in the nature of a tribute to the Rhondda by an interested individual. Well-illustrated and clearly presented, it provides snippets of information – which would need to be checked against other sources – about many topics, from living conditions to the Tonypandy Riots. Worth a look. In English only.
The Welsh History Review: www.uwp.co.uk/book_desc/whr.html
Tables of contents of volumes of the Welsh History Review, 1996–2004.
Sites, buildings and landscapes
Castles of Wales: www.castlewales.com/home.html
Lots of interesting material here, some detailed, some generalised. There is a good index of castles in Wales, and plenty of maps. There are also sections on castle architecture, life in castles and castles in art, and numerous other essays, plus some good photographs. There are several contributors, some academic, but the site has an enthusiastic rather than scholarly feel. Still, if you're looking for an extra resource on Welsh castles, you will find things of interest in this site.
The Historic Churches Survey Database: www.cpat.demon.co.uk/projects/longer/churches/idxall.htm
Database of medieval churches in Wales. Searchable by region and map, with sound academic descriptions of the history and architecture of the churches. Highly recommendable site, backed by Cadw, the historic environment service of the Welsh Assembly Government.
Historic landscapes in Wales: www.cpat.org.uk./projects/longer/histland/histland.htm
Hosted by Cadw (the historic environment service of the Welsh Assembly Government) and the Countryside Council for Wales, a very attractive and easy-to-use bilingual site examining the historical landscape by regions of Wales. Easy to search regions. Very useful.
Mapping the medieval urban landscape: Edward I's new towns in England and Wales: www.qub.ac.uk/urban_mapping
Hosted by Queen's University, Belfast, this site looks at the new towns emerging after Edward I's conquest of north Wales. Some good town maps and focus on urban development, with academic commentary.
Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales: www.coflein.gov.uk/
Access in both Welsh and English. Online database for the Royal Commission on Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales. Visitors can search for archaeological sites, monuments, buildings and maritime sites using a map or by searching by name or site type. The Coflein system enables direct online public access to many images from the holdings of the National Monuments Record of Wales Archive, including photographs, scanned hard-copy drawings and PDF versions of survey reports and other text documents. Very useful resource.

Being A Gentleman: Nice Guys Finish Last
There is a fine line between being a Gentleman and a nice guy. Lets start with being a nice guy.
A young male who will give up countless hours of his time listening to the problems of his very attractive female friends because they need someone to talk to about their apathetic, Baywatch jock of a boyfriend because no one else will listen or genuinely care. Although always surrounded by beautiful girls the nice guy can't get a girlfriend or even facilitate the alleviation of certain "drives" because his "ordinary" physical appearance will forever be compared to the Baywatch beach bum's. The nice guy would never capitalize on a vulnerable girl, objectify or cheat on a girl, he will go out of his way and bend over backwards to help his "friends" and will never ask for anything in return but no matter how intelligent, understanding, humorous, compassionate, trusting or loyal the nice guy is the female cohort will always pass him up and endure any length of abuse, objectification, apathy and cold-heartedness from a man if he has physical attractiveness, fashion, big muscles and chiseled facial features.
-Urban Dictionary
Now the only problem with being a "Nice Guy" is his huevos. He is just too nice and will not take initiative, that is not gentleman-like at all. To all the nice guys out there, I respect your kindness and such, however, I do not respect how you treat women after they say no or already have a boyfriend because your "kind" (whimpy) ass won't kiss the damn girl. If she has a boyfriend, why are you even here. Don't be a home wrecker. Here are you going to go around her back trash talking or saying she's a slut because you are not romantically capable?
Now look, we all make mistakes. I have done this countless of times, that's why I am writing this article now. Just man up and do the work. If you like the girl, court her. If she shows interest, kiss her. If she likes it wunderbar, if not be friends or just ease the awkwardness. Don't go talking smack about her.
Kiss the girl, dammit.

Shaquille O'Neal to Launch Luv Shaq Vodka
Do you think it goes well with his 'Shaq 'n Cheese?'
Today on The Daily Meal
City Guides
Most Popular
First off, if you're not humming "Love Shack" after reading the new name of Shaquille O'Neal's new vodka, you certainly will be now. Second of all, you better be wondering if you can pair Luv Shaq with his famous "Shaq 'n Cheese."
The New York Post reports that Luv Shaq is designed just for the "bar room" athlete: it's sugar-free and gluten-free. It's also being made by the same company that Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino paired up with, Devotion Vodka. (We hope Shaq doesn't get the shaft from this company that supposedly screwed The Situation out of a lot of money.) And, even better: "We're told Luv Shaq comes in coconut flavor, and the bottle features an image of O'Neal with giant wings," writes the New York Post.
We do wonder what kind of vodka mixology creations O'Neal will be making at home; after all, he told The Daily Meal's Ali Rosen that he's a healthy eater (except for the Shaq 'n Cheese).
