Applicants must submit an official high school graduation transcript or an official high school equivalency certificate (G.E.D). Records from secondary schools outside the United States must be accompanied by an original U.S. equivalency document from an approved translating agency.

The Admissions office will retain an applicant's high school transcript/G.E.D. and equivalency document (if applicable) for a period of one (1) academic year. This can be considered part of the application packet if the applicant applies in the subsequent application year only.

Black Confederates: Inconvenient Truth or Racist-inspired Revisionism?
A Long-Sought Photograph, Discovered, Stirs the Pot The photograph of my second great-grandfather was in a book titled Black Confederates (Pelican Publishing 2001), which its editors and publisher tout as a compilation of historical accounts, photographs and documents relating to blacks who served with rebel forces in the Civil War.

As a heavy user of OneNote, I am generally happy with the 2010 version. One of the drawbacks is that most add-ins, written for the 2007 version, no longer work for notebooks in the 2010 format, or are unreliable. I am beginning to get familiar with programming for OneNote 2010 and trying my hand at some utilities myself.
The OneNote utility I am sharing here is "OneNote 2010 Sort Utility". I found that the existing one by Daniel Escapa does not work for my 2010-formatted notebooks.
This utility sorts sections within notebooks and section groups and and (sub)pages within sections. The sorting can be done by name or lastModifiedTime, ascending or descending, and can be done recursively (for sections in section groups in the currently selected notebook or section group, etc) or not. The sorting routines respect subpage structure. For some reason, the section groups themselves apparently cannot be sorted.
I have only been able to do limited testing, but the utility appears to work well, also for notebooks stored on SkyDrive, as mine are.
I hope some gallant souls are willing to try this out and give me some feedback.
The zip-file contains a setup file. Just install and run and you get a treeview of your notebooks. Browse to the notebook, section group, section or page whose sections or (sub)pages you want to sort and press the button.
Requirements: .NET Framework 4, OneNote 2010.

Pacific Rim (2013)
Pacific Rim SynopsisWhen legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroesa washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind's last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

Artists, Islamists and Politicians
Against "the threat of Islamisation", culture is said to be Egypt's last line of defence. But what on earth do we mean when we talk about Egyptian culture?
The night before the ridiculously so called 24 August revolution—the first, abortive attempt to "overthrow the Muslim Brotherhood"—Intellectuals gathered in Talaat Harb Square to express discontent with the new political status quo. Much of what they had to say centred on the draft constitution making no provisions for freedom of expression, but the resulting discourse was, as ever, an amorphous combo of statements: "We cannot stand idly by while our national symbols of thought and creativity are subject to attack," for example. Here as elsewhere in the so called civil sphere, resistance to political Islam has readily reduced to generalised statements of individual positions rallying to the abstract title of Intellectual, which in Arabic is more literally translated as "cultured person". Cultured people—actors, for example, are eager to protect culture—the films and television serials in which they appear; and in so being they have the support of artists, writers, "minorities" and "thinkers".
Never mind the fact that most Egyptian actors have never read a book in their lives, whether or not they admit to such "lack of culture"; it is their social standing as visible producers of something falling under that name that places them in a position to defend an equally, historically compromised value system: enlightenment, secularism, citizenship; imagination, inventiveness, choice…

Goebel Farms provides pumpkin patch pleasures | GALLERY
Jesse Buley giggled excitedly as he waddled his way around a mini-maze of pumpkins, some easily bigger than the 13-month-old boy himself.
While pumpkin-watching may not have been the most popular kid-oriented activity last weekend at Goebel Farms, the tyke's ebullient romp through a sea of orange perfectly sums up what harvest season is all about at Goebel Farms' pumpkin patch: family, tradition and a dazzlingly colorful variety of pumpkins, squash, Indian corn and other fall crops.
"I grew up here and this is where we came every year when I was a kid," said Jesse's mother Lesley Buley. "We live in Henderson now, but I come back here every year. This beautiful fall day just makes me want to pick up everything and move back here."
Larry and Susan Goebel began their pumpkin patch as a young couple in 1969 on their family farm, with the original intent of just helping to help pay bills. Originally selling pumpkins out of a wagon in the front yard of their home, the operation grew and grew over the years, becoming a central part of their family's life and the lives of so many other nearby families.
"It's just grown so much it's unbelievable," Susan Goebel said. "Every year we would try to add something new and it just built on itself.
"This has changed a lot," she continued. "Years ago, people would just come and pick out a pumpkin to carve, but these days it's as much about entertainment and having a fun outing with your family."
Activities for kids are many: hayrides, a petting zoo, a corn maze, a tractor ride. Inside the barn loft, rope swings and a long tube slide, with the latter attracting a seemingly endless stream of riders.
Leah and Jason Coomes of St. Wendell brought their three-year-old son Isaac and niece Avery Martin, 10.
"My favorite things were the rope climbing and the big slide," Avery said. "And the corn maze. I've done that before but it was fun."
Leah Coomes said going out to the farm had become a family tradition since her son was born.
"We mainly just come out to get pumpkins to carve," she said. "We really enjoy doing that every year. But there are lots of things for the kids to do. It's always fun."
Larry Goebel got his start in farming at an early age, growing Indian corn and pumpkins for hog feed on his family farm.
"I remember growing Indian corn in high school," he said. "We had this old Oldsmobile and we would fill it up with corn — the whole trunk, the back seat filled up to the roof and anywhere else we could fit it — and drive into Princeton and sell all of it. And I would do that once a week. I guess you could say this has all come a long way since then."
Susan Goebel estimates that the farm grows more than 100 different varieties of pumpkins and squash. While the standard orange pumpkin is the mainstay, new varieties are created all the time — white, yellow and green, striped and splotchy and every different shape and size.
"Different people like different things," she said, "But my favorite is the Cinderella pumpkin. They're kind of flat on the top and bottom so you can stack them up. A lot of people will see that and want three or four to display them like that at home."
The Goebels offer types such as the full moon, a white pumpkin that can grow as tall as four feet; the aptly-named blue moon; the green-striped Cushaw; the peanut pumpkin, known for its growths that resemble peanut shells; and a large variety of smaller pumpkins and winter squashes that are popular as decorative accents.
Goebel said his passion continues to be farming and always will, but says the fall season is his favorite time of year. The Goebels also grow Christmas trees and make their own apple cider, so the seasonal business extends long into the year.
A sign near the entrance is testament of their own family, with Larry and Susan gathered together with their own three sons and nine grandchildren.
"We love to see families coming here," he said. "Family is the whole point of all of this. It's so much fun getting to meet people and seeing kids that grew up coming here, who are now coming with their own kids. It's great."

From per adult
With the benefit of over 40 years' Club Med experience behind it, our Resort proposes innovative clubs for children and teenagers:
● Dedicated areas specifically designed for their needs, and equipment designed with a view to comfort and safety. Design inspired by the local environment with its flora and fauna, to introduce children to the pleasures of living in harmony with nature, and satisfy their curiosity: the children's clubs at Sinai Bay are inspired by the colours of the Sinai Desert and Egyptian culture (spice market, discover the world of fish, etc): teenagers have an exclusive space called "The Reef", an invitation to explore the underwater world of the Red Sea.
● G.O®s with a passion for their job(1)
● Numerous activities for all ages: sport, creative activities and games for the different age groups
● Opening hours that allow parents to make the most of their stay, and respect the children's desires and sleeping patterns
For information: the children's clubs are open all week, except Saturday.
(1)In France, G.O®s with a BAFA (State diploma for youth group leaders) or childcare qualification, depending on the age of the children; in other countries, an equivalent local diploma or relevant experience.
A gentle haven for little ones, safe in the experienced hands of their dedicated G.O®s. Focus on early learning activities and motor skills:
Fun and spacious premises with plenty of outdoor space. Your toddlers will have a great time with their friends, and explore a wide range of activities designed to introduce them to new experiences:
We've thought of everything possible to ensure your children have a unique, adventure-packed holiday, with discovery, sports and activities for each age group:
Exclusive, contemporary spaces specially designed for teenagers, where they can meet up and feel free to express themselves; a host of proposals and zero obligations, in the company of a dedicated G.O®:
The Club Med Passworld® (from 11 to 17) is proposed at the following dates:
From 18/10/2015 to 06/11/2015
From 13/12/2015 to 08/01/2016
From 07/02/2016 to 04/03/2016
From 27/03/2016 to 06/05/2016
We've done everything in our power to ensure the comfort and well-being of parents and babies. Personal welcome, baby-care material available in your room and/or in the baby feeding and equipment room (cot, changing mat, baby bath, high chair on request, bottle-warmer), sweet and savoury baby foods, baby corner equipped to prepare babies' meals, high chairs and/or booster cushions in the restaurant.
Spare pushchairs are also available if required.
This baby corner, in the main buffet restaurant, proposes sweet and savoury baby foods and the equipment necessary for preparing babies' meals.
The meals are devised by the team of specialist chefs at the Baby restaurant, to satisfy babies' specific needs.
At the Baby restaurant, the G.O®s are in charge of lunch, but parents can share it with their children if they wish.
The Baby restaurant is located in the building that houses the children's clubs.
The Pyjamas Club® is a group babysitting service (no specific activities). It enables parents to leave their children with a team of experienced and qualified G.O®s in a dedicated area with all the necessary comforts (beds, couches, video area, etc). Proposed 3 evenings a week, depending on events scheduled in the Resort.
Service proposed from a minimum of 3 additional participants.
Club Med Spa by CINQ MONDES now proposes specific beauty treatments for teenagers (excluding massage**), at set times in the day, to introduce them to the World of Wellness:
Babies explore movement - crawling, climbing and sliding - on fun circuits created especially for them.
The activity is run by G.O®, as part of the children's club activities proposed. Parents may also take part in this learning activity when the G.O® organise specific events.
For information, this activity is open to children enrolled at Baby Club Med® and Petit Club Med® only.
Access conditions :
Minimum age : 4 months
Maximum age : 3 year(s)
Clean Art Planet raises children's awareness of the environment. This original activity focuses on the objects that find their way into the sea* and are then rejected by the waves: plastic bags, bottles, flip flops, and so on are used in a series of workshops that focus on art and colour, putting emotion in the limelight rather than right and wrong!
Once the objects have been collected from the beaches by adults, sorted according to object and colour and washed, the Mini Club Med® can get on with the creative side of the activity, during which the children invent objects and stories, do photography, create large-scale works of art and put on exhibitions.
The activity is run by GO®s. *For Club Med Resorts that are not by the sea, the objects used are recyclable waste such as disposable cups, straws, corks, etc, from the Resort kitchens and bars.
Access conditions :
Minimum age : 4 year(s)
Maximum age : 10 year(s)
At Mini Club Med®, "Happy Nature Box" invites children aged 4 to 10 to discover nature through three fun activities:
Through role play, children aged 3 to 6 get to learn tennis the fun way, from Petit Club Med®*.
Access conditions :
Minimum age : 3 year(s)
Maximum age : 4 year(s)

DNA-based analysis constitutes the key approach in the challenging task of identifying human remains from mass fatalities. In the present case, we introduced a workflow that allowed effective and fast identification of the complete set of highly fragmented human remains (N = 418) from an air crash in Río Negro Province, Argentina, on May 18, 2011, in which all 19 passengers and 3 crew members were killed. This process included DNA extraction from bone using a semi-automated DNA purification system, DNA quantitation by real-time PCR using commercial kits and data analysis using expert software. The implementation of this strategy allowed us to achieve our objective in a very short time.

DNA-assisted identification is the gold standard for personal identification in any forensic scenario. Mass fatalities where only highly fragmentary remains are recovered at the disaster site represent one of the most challenging analytical situations. These cases require coordinated sampling in contrasting landscapes: Collection of samples at the disaster site, which can demand considerable time depending on the case, versus collection of reference samples donated by putative family members seeking to identify their missing relatives. This approach has been successfully applied in various situations in the last 20 years, such as victim identification in terrorist attacks
, the World Trade Center attack on September 11, 2001
, air crashes
, natural disasters
and mass graves
. Optimization of the methodological platforms and improvements in sensitivity reduced the time required for complete identification. In this paper, we describe the methodological and interpretative approaches employed for identifying a set of more than 400 highly fragmented human remains, mostly represented by small bone fragments, belonging to the 22 fatalities.
On May 18, 2011, a SAAB 340 airplane belonging to Sol Airlines exploded at high altitude of more than 2,000 meters near Los Menucos (40°60´S, 68°07´W), in Río Negro province, Argentina. All 19 passengers and 3 crew members were killed. The remains were distributed throughout an area of about 1,000 square meters. Retrieval of all fragmentary remains took place during a considerable span of time, ending nine months after the accident.
Human remains: Highly burned and fragmented remains were received at the Buenos Aires Forensic Mortuary. DNA laboratory members participated in selecting all of the samples to be used for DNA typing. Only one body was found almost completely intact, while the rest were severely fragmented. No complete skulls were found, but a high number of cranial bones were retrieved, indicating that an intense explosion had occurred, resulting in body and cranial burst. The human remains from the disaster area were sent for analysis on five different dates. The first two sets of samples included primarily soft tissues, whereas the remaining samples were mostly bone fragments. A total of 418 samples were selected for DNA typing using the following criteria: a) samples had to be anatomically recognizable, b) samples composed of bone, muscle and skin were considered a single part provided they were linked by tissue bridges and c) priority was given to muscle during the first months of testing, then later to bone samples. Reception dates and sample types are summarized in Figure 1.
At the forensic mortuary, all cadaver samples were carefully washed with tap water, numbered and photographed, and small tissue fragments were taken and placed in 50ml tubes containing a volume of solid table salt equivalent to 25ml
before being sent to the DNA laboratory. The remaining material was kept at –20°C for preservation in labeled heat-sealed plastic bags.
Family members: Members of the 22 families provided antemortem information such as radiographs, dental records, tattoos and descriptions of personal belonging. A total of 45 reference blood samples were obtained and spotted onto Whatman 3MM filter paper. All donors signed an informed consent statement approved by the Bioethics Committee of the Universidad de Buenos Aires School of Pharmacy and Biochemistry, Argentina. Although all relatives were sampled, first-degree relatives were given priority.
DNA extraction: All samples were extracted using the DNA IQ™ System and the semi-automated Maxwell® 16 Instrument (Promega Corporation). DNA from either muscle or bone was extracted from material that had been rinsed with distilled water to remove residual solid salt. Bone fragments were cut with a circular saw and muscles cut with a scalpel. Before adding the extraction buffer, tissues were weighed and adjusted to 100mg to standardize the amount of extracted DNA and reduce the need for real-time PCR quantitation. Tissue was placed in 2ml microcentrifuge tubes with 500µl of extraction buffer: 0.5% TEC-SDS (10mM Tris buffer [pH 7.6], 1mM ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid disodium salt [pH 8.0], 100mM NaCl and 0.5% w/v sodium dodecyl sulfate) and 10µl (20mg/ml) of Proteinase K (Promega Corporation). Samples were incubated overnight at 56°C and agitated at 750rpm in a Vortemp 1550 (LabLine, USA). A volume of 250µl of lysis buffer with 1M DTT (dithiothreitol, Promega Corporation) was added to each sample following the manufacturer´s protocol. Samples were vortexed at maximum speed for 10 seconds. Finally, samples were placed into the Maxwell® 16 cartridges, and 30µl of elution buffer was added for sample recovery. Purified DNA samples were kept at 4°C.
Editor's Note: For optimal results, Promega recommends an elution volume of 50µl with the Maxwell® 16 Instrument.
DNA Quantitation: To reduce analysis time, DNA extraction from muscle tissues was standardized after the quantification of 50 random samples by real-time PCR using the Plexor® HY System (Promega Corporation) and a Corbett RotorGene 6000 (Corbett Life Science). We found that samples weighing 100mg were the most appropriate for DNA extraction.
DNA samples obtained from the bones recovered during the last eight months after the accident were quantitated because bone samples had lower DNA yields than undecomposed muscle.
DNA Typing: All samples were typed for autosomal markers using the PowerPlex® 16 HS System (Promega Corporation) following the manufacturer´s protocol. After analysis, aliquots of all samples with identical genotypes were pooled and re-amplified for confirmation of the identity of samples in each group. DNA in each pooled sample was quantified and adjusted to the optimal concentration. In cases where the Amelogenin results indicated a male genotype, pooled samples were haplotyped with the Y-Filer™ kit (Life Technologies/Applied Biosystems).
Capillary Electrophoresis: Fragment analysis was performed with an ABI PRISM® 3100-Avant Genetic Analyzer. Profile interpretation and genetic identity searches were carried out with the GeneMapper® ID-X expert software (Life Technologies/Applied Biosystems). This software allows quality evaluation of genetic profiles, detection of potential lab reference sample contamination and sample comparison to establish identity among samples and kinship with reference samples.
Analysis of the first 181 samples led to identification of the 22 victims by comparison with reference samples within a week. Additional remains were retrieved in the crash area during a period of over nine months and were sent for further analysis (Figure 1).
With the exception of the mechanical procedure for cutting fragments of bone or muscle tissue, the protocols employed for DNA extraction were identical for both material, including modifications to the incubation step.
DNA was extracted from bone without demineralization because we targeted the trabecular bone-derived cells in samples that were retrieved during a relatively short time period of up to nine months following the crash. Additionally, the accident area is a semi-desert region with very low temperatures during winter (May to September) and is very dry in the spring and summer when the bone samples were found.
DNA quantitation represents an important step when bone samples are analyzed. We highly recommend a real-time PCR-based approach for this purpose, especially a highly standardized commercial kit. This step allows us to detect male material and potential inhibitors and adjust the amount of DNA to obtain the best profiles, reducing the chance of stochastic effects and avoiding split peaks.
No contamination was detected in any of the samples analyzed, as determined by the expert software. This software allowed us to group the 418 samples into 22 sample sets corresponding to the 22 victims and establish kinship relationships with the reference samples.
Bone DNA extraction has been improved since the beginning of the forensic DNA-based identification era
. Since then, a huge effort has been made to increase sensitivity, reduce inhibitory effects of environmental compounds and generate complete profiles from challenging samples.
In this paper we introduced some modifications that reduced processing time, intersample contamination and interpretation time. The strategy developed (Figure 2) proved to be optimal for a considerable number of samples from a reduced number of victims.

My Valentine
Can you hear me when I sing
You're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me
-U2, Sometimes You Can't Make it On Your Own
Words from the heart are especially powerful. As the announcement of my BP journey has reached many of you, you have replied with kind words of encouragement. One email's opening line was, "I'm so proud of you I
could burst!" While a text simply stated, "You truly are my hero." One funny
tweeter asked, "Do you ever stop throwing." And another declared, "You so
rock!" I am so humbled by your support. Your heartfelt words mean so much to
Last Thursday, I threw to UMASS Amherst's baseball team. This was particularly cool for me because Julie Croteau, the first woman to coach college baseball, once served as an assistant coach at UMASS. She worked for Head Coach Mike Stone; the same man I was now throwing BP for. I am the second woman to coach at the college level (Assistant Coach, Springfield College (2007-10). So throwing BP at UMASS is another experience Croteau and I were to share.
Despite this historical connection,I was not feeling any 'warm fuzzies' from Coach Stone. I don't think he thought I was I going to do a good job. Maybe Coach Stone was thinking about the time Croteau threw BP to UMASS. She broke her arm when a line drive hit her. Because Coach Stone's final words to me before entering the cage were, "Make sure you get behind the screen. Julie didn't and she broke her arm." I smiled back and replied, "I'm not worried." But as I stepped into that cage, I was worried. Not about being hit but whether or not Coach Stone would ever like me.
I was throwing well to UMASS – hard and strikes. But every time I would see Coach Stone stop and look my way, I threw a ball. Boy, he made me nervous. I knew I needed a mental shift. I checked my heart rate. It was pounding. I changed the song in my head from U2's "Walk On" to their love ballad, "Sometimes You Can't Make it on Your Own." My breath and pace came
under my control. Next time Coach Stone looked at me, I still threw a ball. But
instead of feeling panic, I smiled. And it kind of became an inside joke with
me. Stone appeared and so did a ball. But I was determined to change that. So I
continued to sing to myself and kept on smiling. Soon the nerves left and I
threw strikes for Coach Stone. At the end of the batting session, a once stoic
Coach Stone, smiled at me, told me I did well, and invited me to come back and
throw again to his team. "Anytime," he offered.
It's amazing the impact words can have on us. Coach Stone's "anytime" offer to throw BP, gave me a grounded sense of confidence for my outing with the Indians. Like the kind words that many of you have sent me. Their impact is truly incredible. Your good wishes and belief in me make my heart swell. And just as you have given me your heart, I give you mine. Happy Valentine's Day.

Throwing to the Astros
"One of the beautiful things about baseball is that every once
in a while you come into a situation where you want to, and where you have to,
reach down and prove something."
-Nolan Ryan
Tentative after my average performance with the Cardinals the
day before, I was on the phone with a friend looking for a pep talk. I found a
penny between the stadium seats and uncharacteristically picked it up – I was looking
for a little luck. As I fiddled with the penny, it fell out of my hands. I
asked my friend, "Is it still lucky if I drop it?" My friend assured me, "You
get double the luck." I picked up the penny, put it in the back pocket of my
Astros uniform and then left to throw batting practice.
I always tell reporters that I wanted to be Orel Hershiser
when I was a kid. And that is true. But my second choice would have been Nolan
Ryan. Before I was allowed to throw BP to the Astros, I was first taken to the
office where I was asked to sign a waiver – acknowledging that I just might die
from throwing BP. I happily signed. But before leaving the office, I admired a
photo of Nolan Ryan; it displayed his perfect pitching mechanics. And I thought
how amazing it was that I had an Astros uniform on – just like my former
baseball hero.
I warmed up with one of the coaches. He was being teased by
the players in Spanish. I have no idea what they said but my guess was
something about arm strength. There were many times during my BP journey that I
wished I had paid a little more attention in high school Spanish class – this
was one of those times. Later, I enjoyed listening to that coach share his own
stories of throwing BP. I was surprised when he suggested, "Now what we have to
do, is get someone to take you to the All Star Game to throw at the Home Run
One of my favorite parts of
throwing BP to MLB teams, is the first time the ball is hit right back at me on
a line drive. The ball smacks into the screen and I can see players and coaches
behind the batting cage wince. But I never flinch. Even when a ball whizzes by
my head I pretend it never happened. And I know for many of the coaches and
players that when they see my reaction (or lack thereof), that it is the moment
when they see me not as a girl who might get hurt but as a coach who is
throwing BP. And I take pride in
After the BP session, my daughter Jasmine kept saying over and
over how nice the Astros were; that whenever players passed in the hall, they
would say hi to her. She was so impressed with their kindness. And so was I. I
think the team's supportive atmosphere contributed to my good outing. For the
first time, I felt relaxed. And I threw like it.
I think back to the lucky
penny I picked up that day and my promise of double of the luck. But I think it
is not luck that I found that day. Instead I found comfort in knowing that I
have friends I can count on, fans who support me, and teams like the Astros,
who believe in the power of a dream. And for me, that's way better than luck.

Gallery: Crazy Banyan Treehouse Cafe Takes Root in Japan
Overlooking the ocean, the Naha Harbor Diner claims to offer "farm-fresh vegetables, juicy chickens and pork" and "native salts." And as we all know, native and local foods cut down on shipping and packaging costs, reducing our carbon and plastic footprints. In the end it's hard to say whether dining in a faux tree will boost your sustainability points, but it sure looks exciting and native ingredients can't hurt.

This island is mostly either jungle or city- ALL the buildings here are concrete- you'd be an idiot not to have concrete with the typhoons that roar through here…. The branches will not fall off and hit your car. parking under a metal light pole in the WalMart parking lot is far more dangerous.
I have gone to about 30 websites on Naha Harbor Diner (for this is the name of this restaurant) and I have gotten very mixed reviews on the food and service, so I think we'll pass. I just had to point out that in spite of the environmental ramifications, nothing on this island would be standing if it weren't made of thick concrete.

i would not like one of those branches to fall off and hit me, and people are parking their cars under that!?

concrete! this is not 'green' AT ALL! concrete is hugely 'carbon-intensive' to create – not to mention the environmental damage done to actually get the commodities to make/transport concrete!
With so many energy saving/environmentally 'friendly' building and manufacturing technologies emerging, it's ridiculous to feature a concrete structure simply 'cause it 'looks like' a tree! C'mon now…

Surf's up, dudes!
Last weekend, we were delighted to attend the 8thAnnual Loews Surf Dog Competition, Unleashed by Petco. Thousands of spectators and hundreds of dogs gathered at sunny Imperial Beach in southern California to catch some righteous waves and help fight animal cruelty.
More than 40 dogs waxed their boards and carved up some waves, while their adoring fans met cute adoptable animals from the Humane Society of San Diego. The event raised more than $20,000 for the ASPCA.
YouTube sensation Tillman the English Bulldog took first place in the large dog category. Who knew his skills extended beyond skateboarding!? Talk about a dog of all trades!
Thank you to the Loews Surf Dog Competition, Unleashed by Petco and the San Diego Humane Society for hosting us and these talented pups!

Tips for Mom: What's a Mother to Wear? (Almost) Anything!
Naturally, you want to look terrific on the day your daughter or son gets married—because while it's true that all eyes will be on the bride, they'll also be on you.
The old concept that both moms are supposed to look matronly was retired long ago, along with the adage that the mother of the groom should wear beige.
These days, virtually anything goes—formal gown, short or long dress, skirt-and-jacket ensemble—so long as it matches the style of the wedding and stays within the limits of good taste. Some guidelines to keep in mind:
- Choose a color that will blend nicely with the dresses of the wedding party.
- Avoid wearing white. This color is reserved for the bride. If you want to wear a light color, choose a pastel in a light or medium tone.
- Traditionally, the bride's mother has the honor of selecting her outfit first.
- The mother of the groom, in picking her outfit second, should ideally wear a different color from the bride's mother. When in doubt, she should go with a soft or neutral color, rather than an excessively bold color.
- The mothers do not have to wear dresses of equal length, although many choose to do so in order to create a more harmonious look—especially in wedding photos.
Wedding Outfit Wisdom: Top Five Tips
- A specialty store, rather than a department store, will offer much more personalized attention throughout the process—from choosing a dress to making alterations to selecting just the right undergarments.
- If possible, bring in a swatch of the bridesmaids' gown material when you go shopping, or have a description of the gown's color.
- Order your outfit at least two to three months ahead of time, and allow at least two weeks for alterations.
- When buying your dress, get specific advice on which undergarments and hose will go best with it.
- As for who calls whom to discuss 'our outfits,' the mother of the groom shouldn't stand on ceremony; if she hasn't heard anything once the initial wedding plans are underway, she's perfectly welcome to call the mother of the bride.

Lady Gaga teams up with Tony Bennett
Is Lady Gaga about to tone it down and jazz it up? Fans of her racy antics will be pleasantly surprised (or not?) to hear that the pop star is matched up with the legendary Tony Bennett for an album's worth of standards on the newly released "Cheek to Cheek."
You got that… right? Bennett is 88, Gaga is 28, and together they've put together a full disc of duets drawing mostly rave reviews. A critic at The Daily Beast, for example, noted she was "especially convincing at slower tempos," and said Gaga's voice "projects an appealing innocence… at almost every juncture of this album, she communicates with a disarming enthusiasm for the music."
Gaga, who is currently on an international tour that wraps November 24 in Paris, recently talked to the Associated Press about a number of things, including letting go of her manager, her "ARTPOP" album and a much-publicized performance in Tel Aviv.
It was last year that Gaga parted ways with longtime manager Troy Carter. She says she was overworked, that greed led to their split, and that she believes her talents "were not being used to their full potential." Her focus has now shifted, and she has stated multiple times, "my integrity as a musician is so much more to me than money."
Despite the fact that Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Backstreet Boys and Lana Del Rey all recently canceled scheduled concert dates in Tel Aviv (due to escalating tensions between Israel and Gaza), Gaga attracted some 30,000 fans to HaYarkon Park on September 13th.
11/24/13: It's Gaga gone wild. As if this is anything new. The performance artist in this performer came out – and then some – when Gaga recently performed a surprise set at London nightclub G-A-Y and started the show dressed up as a ghost. But leave it Gaga to lose the costume, which she did, and ended up stripped down to her birthday suit while singing her new song "Venus."
The risque show put on by Lady Gaga surprised no one, it seemed, and came just days after the star released the cover art for her latest single "Do What You Want," which also features her derriere proudly on display. The cut is the latest in a string of tunes she has promised to share in the run-up to the November 11th release of her album.
"Venus" is your typical Gaga song, featuring a booming club beat and lyrics that ponder the sexual implications of interdimensional travel. At one point the song demands Gaga be "taken to your leader," and she runs through a name-check of other planets, with a Uranus reference thrown in for good measure: "Don't you know my ass is famous?" she asks.
Gaga says each song on "ARTPOP" was inspired by a different type of adrenaline, and she wants her fans to 'feel them.' Previously previewed tracks besides "Do What U Want" (featuring R. Kelly) include "Aura" and "Applause," which she performed in August at the MTV Video Music Awards. Off stage, Gaga remains embroiled in an on again, off again 'feud' with Kelly Osbourne that has spilled over to social media. The cat fight dates back years, and briefly included Kelly's mom Sharon, who once galled Gaga a "bully" and a "publicity seeking hypocrite." Those two, at least, appear to have buried the hatchet. Gaga recently performed on Sharon's UK show "The X Factor," where Sharon tweeted she was "blown away by Lady Gaga's graciousness."
4/4/13: Lady Gaga surely didn't envision the way 2013 would turn out. In the middle of a tour consisting of 110 shows across the globe, she suffered a labral tear of her right hip that caused the remainder of dates to be canceled.
The setback came on the heels of several dates of the tour's leg in Asia drawing protests from religious groups who viewed the tour as satanic and against religious values. This stemmed mostly due to an outcry from the Islamic Defenders Front, causing a cancellation in the Indonesian city of Jakarta after 52,000 tickets had been sold in just a few days.
Thanks to the bum hip, concert promoters have been left scrambling over who will be responsible for picking up the cost of a tour cancellation estimated at $25 million. Still, the show goes on behind the scenes. Work on Gaga's new album, "Artpop," continues. She is working with DJ White Shadow, RedOne, Zedd and Madeon, and the album is set for release later in 2013. She is also reportedly planning to record a jazz album with Tony Bennett, will make her debut film appearance in the upcoming movie "Machete Kills," and is working on a documentary about her life and "the creation of ARTPOP."
Gaga's "Born Brave" bus tour – her initiative to raise awareness about the danger of bullying and to inspire young people to be courageous and accept themselves – continued its run. The bus stopped in Philadelphia, Washington, D.C. and New York City before its final stop at Chicago's Navy Pier.
On 9/5/2012, Lady Gaga finally announced her US tour dates and we have Lady Gaga Tickets and 2013 US tickets for you here at SeatGeek as soon as the are available (the on-sale dates start in Mid-September).

These days anyone who doesn't live under a rock knows Lady Gaga. Her title -- and the accompanying persona -- is synonymous with uber-bizarre hairstyles, eye-popping glam, and barely there ensembles. Gaga's flamboyant look, combined with chart-topping hits, has catapulted her to modern pop music superstardom. Born Stefani Germanotta on March 28, 1986 and raised primarily in New York City, she briefly attended New York University's Tisch School of the Arts before withdrawing to focus on a music career. She was signed to Streamline Records by the end of 2007, and while working as a songwriter for the company would capture the attention of recording artist Akon, who signed her to his label Kon Live Distribution. Since the release of her first single, 'Just Dance,' in 2008, Gaga has been riding a wave of success with hits like 'Poker Face,' 'Bad Romance,' 'Telephone,' and 'Born This Way.' With three major album releases under her belt ('The Fame,' 'The Fame Monster,' and 'Born This Way'), Gaga has captured five Grammy Awards, 13 MTV Video Music Awards, and was named Billboard Magazine's Artist of the Year in 2010. Fans and critics alike rave about Lady Gaga's live performances, as Gaga is known for bringing entertainment to the next level. Her 2009 'The Fame Ball' tour proved that she was a global phenomenon. A few months later Gaga launched 'The Monster Ball' tour, which lasted for over a year and a half and raked in over $200 million, becoming one of the highest-grossing concert tours of all time. If you want to experience one of Lady Gaga's live performances, don't fret. This flashy diva is a performaholic, always ready to put on a show. Gaga kicked off her 'Born This Way Ball' tour on April 27 in Seoul, South Korea. It made its way across Asia, moved to Australia and eventually into Europe. The last stop for the calendar year is scheduled in South Africa on December 3 at Cape Town Stadium, with North American dates for 2013 yet to be announced. Lady Gaga also recently announced to fans that she completed her third full-length album and will be announcing the title in September. She recently said at a concert that the upcoming project displays, 'a tremendous lack of maturity or sense of responsibility.'
The world is still waiting for Lady Gaga's North American tour dates to be announced.

10 Songs That Are Unintentionally Terrifying
"Run for Your Life" - The Beatles Clearly written before John Lennon's "Bed Peace" era, this song comes from the perspective of either a scorned lover, or ragingly abusive ex-boyfriend: "Let this be a sermon, I mean everything I've said / Baby, I'm determined, and I'd rather see you dead."

Why Was Dan Aykroyd in This Video?

Murs Tickets - Artist HistoryMurs is a Los Angeles rapper who began his solo career in 1993, when he released his first single. In 1997, he released his first full-length F'Real via Veritech Records, and he would stay with Veritech until Murs Rules the World (2000), which he would release through LLCrew. In 2003, he released The End of the Beginning through Definitive Jux, and in 2006, he inked to major label Warner Bros. His Warner Bros. debut Murs for President was comparatively successful, peaking at number 45 on Billboard charts in the U.S., and number 11 on Billboard Top Rap Albums charts. Murs continues to record music and tour, as well as work on his collaborations with various hip hop artists (including Atmosphere) in Felt, The Invincible(s) and others.
Murs Tickets - The MusicMurs is known for his dark and harrowing lyrics. He stands out from much of the hip hop crowd because instead of glorifying the gangster lifestyle, he often raps about just how heartbreaking and destructive it can be. This is well evidenced in Walk Like A Man, from Murs 3:16, which details the story of a man who gets avenges the death of his friend. Murs is unapologetic as he describes first the reason for the scene: But as I did I heard two shots, I turned to my right and I see my dude drop. Time stopped, couldn't believe what I seen I was struck by reality when the two girls screamed, and later, taking revenge: Then I split his face with the Glock right before he could reply, he cried as I pressed the heat against his cheek. Then I squeeze two times for the homie rest in peace. Make sure to get your Murs tickets so you can experience the intensity live.

After winning last week's Chinese Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton has admitted that he is in a 'very happy place' at the moment.
Hamilton has often been criticised for allowing himself to be distracted by external factors during race weekends, but after switching to Mercedes from McLaren, the former World Champion looks to have turned over a new leaf.
His new-found calmness has translated to results on the track and after winning the last three races of the season, Hamilton is regarded by many as the favourite to lift this year's Drivers' Championship.
"It's a combination of lots of things," Hamilton told crash.net when asked if he has ever been happier in Formula One.
"It's where I am in my life, family, girlfriend, where I live... having the right people in place with management and being in the right team. This year I am able to arrive and drive with no other worries.
"We got a great start, pulled away and controlled it from there. The job the team are doing and the guys around me...
"I am so much more comfortable with the people I am working with this year. I am able to really extract the most out of my engineers, so I feel like we did a good job."
